Duan Ziyu endured the pain of separation, cheered up, and recalled the swordsmanship performed by Zhang Changshang. Each move came to mind.
Suddenly, I saw dozens of footprints scattered on the ground, as if carved on the stone by skilled craftsmen.
This land is muddy and sandy. People who have practiced martial arts usually leave footprints. On the contrary, leaving no traces is a big problem. But like this, each footprint is as deep as five minutes, and the surrounding mud and sand are not dispersed. If you don't have superb skills, Even if you reach the realm of being unstained by fine dust, you can't do it.
Duan Ziyu felt grateful, knowing that Zhang Changsheng had deliberately left it for him to practice with.
Now I follow these footprints and practice the sword moves on my hand, one move after another. Sometimes I forget, so I sit on the ground and meditate hard. Sometimes the footwork and sword moves don't match well, and I have to recall Zhang's normal posture when performing moves, and silently understand them. , it was only when dusk set in the west and the night fog filled the sky that I finally learned all this set of swordsmanship moves.
The more I practice, and after I become proficient in sword moves with my hands and footwork, I feel that this set of sword techniques is vast and profound, and seems to have endless mysteries. It seems that I can feel it but cannot understand it, let alone use it to surpass the sword moves.
After three days, he had practiced it like crazy and devoted his whole body and soul to this sword technique.
He meditates and practices martial arts at night, and concentrates on sword practice during the day. Whenever he encounters a difficult problem, he reads the scriptures of the Jiuyin Sutra, and he can often get explanations from the scriptures.
There are many difficult points in the scriptures that can be confirmed in swordsmanship. After questioning and confirming the two aspects, and then integrating them, many problems that have been lingering in the heart for many years can be solved.
A month has passed, and he feels that his martial arts has improved, which is far from what it used to be. He practices more vigorously, but there are still many things that he cannot understand from the scriptures and swordsmanship.
Little did he know that this set of swordsmanship was the treasure of the Tianshi Sect. It was created by Zhang Jixian, the 30th generation master of the Tianshi Sect. He imitated the Sixty Western Hexagrams of the Book of Changes and created the Sixty Western Moves. Each move has six variations. Imitating the six lines of each hexagram in the Book of Changes, the whole set of swordsmanship actually has 250 Western moves. With six-six combinations, the number of moves is nearly ten thousand. In terms of the complexity of the moves, swordsmanship in the world is unparalleled.
The footwork is the Yu Gang method taught by the Heavenly Master to pray for rain and eliminate disasters, and to perform rituals during fasting. It is said that Dayu was unable to control the floods for several years. However, after being taught by an immortal, he was able to summon gods and ghosts overnight. You're done.
This statement is of course the Tianshi Sect's deliberate attempt to be magical, but its footwork may seem chaotic, but once it moves around, it actually undergoes unpredictable changes.
The so-called "Welcome someone without seeing their head, hold someone in their arms without seeing their tail." This is a very appropriate way to describe this Bu Gang method.
Zhang Jixian also applied the inner elixir power of Shenxiao Thunder to his swordsmanship, and brought it to its extreme. It was really capable of making thunder and lightning, which no one could stop.
When Zhang Changcheng performed the sword, there was a faint sound of thunder on the sword, which was a sign that this sword technique had reached a very high level. This set of sword techniques was also named "Tian Lei Sword Technique."
The Zhouyi is a Taoist classic. Although the Jiuyin Sutra is not as mysterious and difficult to understand as the Zhouyi, it is also the general outline of Taoist martial arts. The two have many similarities.
It was difficult for Duan Ziyu to understand these two martial arts at first, but he had a high level of understanding, and after a hundred tribulations, Master Tai opened up the Little Zhoutian. After taking the "Innate Creation Pill", he not only strengthened the Yuan and built the foundation, but also opened up the Great Zhoutian, and his internal strength His attainments are extremely profound, and all he needs is more proficiency and increased experience.
Therefore, he can memorize the most complex and changeable sword moves in the world in three times. After confirming it with the Nine Yin Manual, he has a glimpse of the superior realm of swordsmanship. He is completely different from the one he was a month ago. personal.
Another January has passed, and it is already the beginning of autumn in September. The west wind is blowing coldly, and the ground has accumulated a thick layer of dead flowers and fallen leaves.
Duan Ziyu felt that his understanding of the Nine Yin Manual and the Heavenly Thunder Sword Technique had reached its peak, and that many unresolved problems could only be solved in the future.
At the end of the day, the appointment with Master Tai of Hundred Tribulations is imminent.
He hurriedly packed his luggage, sealed the secret room, bid farewell with tears in front of Ouyang Jiu's tomb, and hurriedly set out on the road.
When I arrived in Weiyang, I bought a Wuya horse and rode it quickly. At noon that day, he rode into Xi'an.
Xi'an is an important town in the northwest, known as the "ancient capital". It has a prosperous scholar-population, a dense population, and a large number of merchants.
Duan Ziyu saw the bustling market. He had lived in caves under ancient temples for ten years. He had seen such scenery several times before and was curious about everything.
He was richly dressed, handsome and handsome, and his horse was as angry as a dragon. He also attracted the attention of many harried girls.
When we arrived at a restaurant with a sign saying "Taibai Drunkenness", a waiter in green clothes and a small hat had already come out to welcome him. He held the reins and offered out the restaurant's delicacies at a good price, saying that this was where the great poet Li Bai got drunk.
Emperor Ming of the Tang Dynasty issued an edict to summon him to the palace to write lyrics. He also claimed that "I am an immortal in wine, and the emperor cannot recruit him to the ship."
Duan Ziyu felt happy, dismounted from his horse, handed over to the waiter, and then climbed up the steps to the seating area on the second floor. He is a complete expert in drinking and cooking. Ouyang Jiu once told him about the world's famous wines, several major cuisines, and famous restaurants in various provinces and cities.
At that time, it was just to relieve loneliness, but now Duan Ziyu had ordered the wine and food, but he had fooled the boss, thinking that he was really a young man from a well-known family, so he did not dare to neglect and went to cook and supervise the work himself.
In a moment, the food and wine were ready. Duan Ziyu has been galloping for many days, but he can only eat dry food. At this moment, the aroma of wine and food fills the west seat, and he raises his glass and eats chopsticks. Drink and chew.
While he was eating happily, he suddenly felt a slight chill on his back. He reached out and caught a hand. This hand had just been inserted into his backpack. As soon as he caught it, he couldn't help but let out a "yeah".
There was an uproar upstairs. The boss and the waiters rushed up and asked in surprise: "Sir, is this little girl a thief?"
Duan Ziyu turned around and saw a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl standing in front of him with a blushing face. A soft, boneless, slender, white hand fell into his grasp.
At that moment, he raised his glass with his other hand and said with a smile, "It's Miss Miaoshou. I haven't seen you for a long time. She is still so playful when we meet. The shopkeeper, please add a pair of cups and chopsticks and serve the food and wine as usual."
He felt relieved when he picked up the cabinet. A thief in the restaurant was not good for business. Since they were just a brother and sister having fun, of course it was okay.
But he has been running a restaurant for decades, and he has never seen any of the three different religions in his travels. This pair of tricks is very poisonous, and he always feels that something is wrong between the brother and sister.
But people in business only want to make money, and they talk about making money by being friendly. If you don't go to him if you have trouble, he will find the reason for it, and then bring you food, wine, glasses, and chopsticks.
The little girl was sitting at the table, her face flushed with blush, and her expression was very coy. She pulled her hand back several times, as if it was embedded in a crack in the stone, unable to move.
She simply let him hold her hand to see what other tricks he had, and she kept complaining in her heart. She learned to be a thief when she was eight years old, learned from a famous teacher, and made her debut at the age of twelve. It has been five or six years now, and she has never seen anything that catches her eye. I missed it under my hand, but I didn't expect that I lost my hand today.
I heard people call her the girl with good hands, which is obviously the nickname of a thief. I don't know what the intention of this kid is.
Little did she know that most people hated Mr. Miaoshou and Miss Miaoshou to the core, but Duan Ziyu was very close to them.
The person he loved most in his life, Ouyang Jiu, was a veteran in this field. Zhang Yuzhen stole the Holy Fire Order of the Ming Cult, and his legs were broken by Yan Yuan's heavy-handed concealed weapon. When he fled to his practice place, he was exhausted, and Yan Yuan and others followed him, and others would have stayed away long ago to avoid being tainted with the smell of thieves.
However, Duan Ziyu had the same enemy and used the Nine Yin White Bone Claw to kill Yan Yuan and others.
Holding these soft hands at this moment, I wonder in my heart, why are all the beautiful girls in this world willing to be thieves?
At the moment, I was still afraid of being seen through, so I started chatting briefly with my aunt and uncle, the "Miaoshou Girl" sitting across from me. The Miaoshou Girl was happy to deal with it. The two of them came and went, chatting about nothing. In full swing.
As they chatted, Duan Ziyu loosened his grip.
He smiled and said, "Miss Miaoshou, where are you going now?"
Seeing that no one was paying attention in the Western Zhou Dynasty, the Miaoshou girl bit her teeth lightly and spat in a low voice:
"Miaoshou, Miaoshou, could you please omit these two words? It sounds terrible."
Duan Ziyu thought to himself, you can do it, but you are still afraid of people saying it, but when he saw her face full of tenderness and anger, and her face was filled with colorful flowers, his heart softened and he stopped teasing her.
He smiled and said: "It saves you trouble, so why bother."
He was full of wine and food and eager to get on the road. After recruiting a gang to calculate the accounts, he placed the ingot of gold on the opposite side and said with a smile:
"Sister, see you later." He turned around and went downstairs.
The girl was stroking the ingot of gold and looking at his back dreamily. Suddenly she gritted her teeth and followed him out resolutely.
Duan Ziyu led his horse out of the south city gate, intending to pass through Hanzhong, go south to Sichuan, and ride towards Emei.
He was about to mount his horse when he suddenly saw a girl coming out of the woods in front of him. He smiled and said:
"Wonderful...sister, things are really changing. I don't want to meet again so soon."
After a lot of effort, he finally swallowed the word "hand".
The girl Chunshan frowned, then changed her face in surprise and said: "I am about to die, and if I still only talk glibly, I'm afraid I will be a fool when I die."
Duan Ziyu smiled and said: "Sister, I don't dare to offend you, why should you curse me with death?"
The girl gritted her teeth and said: "I curse you, if you offend me in the slightest, you will be dead now."
As he spoke, he reached for the saddle and uncovered it. Inside, there were actually densely packed bee-tailed steel needles, all blue and obviously poisonous.
Duan Ziyu was sweating and said in a trembling voice: "Who did this?"
The girl said: "I'm telling you, you may not know each other. In fact, I'm doing it in vain. If you escape this level, you won't be able to escape the next level. Telling you is just to let you live a little longer." She said sadly, and she couldn't stop sighing. , the eye circles are red.
Duan Ziyu said strangely: "Girl, who are the people who want to harm me? Are they from the Demon Cult?"
The girl sighed: "Not only the Demon Sect, but also heroes from all over the mountains and mountains are looking for your luck. This place is thousands of miles away from Emei, and there is a 90%25 chance that your life will be lost on the road."
Duan Ziyu said in confusion: "It's natural for people in the Demon Cult to want to kill me, but I haven't seen any of the heroes in the mountains, let alone offended them. Why do they want to harm me?"
The girl said quietly: "This is called 'the crime of holding a jade'. Of course you have not offended them, but people say that you have a Nine Yin Scripture on your body.
"The Nine Yin Manual is the general outline of martial arts in the world. No one wants to get it. If I ask you for it, of course you won't give it to me. Naturally, I have no choice but to kill people to steal the scripture. This is also called helplessness."
After Duan Ziyu understood, he laughed and said: "Sister, thank you for saving me once. Let's see who among the heroes in the world can get my good head from Duan Ziyu."
"Boy, you are so brave." A man came from the city wall in one fell swoop and grabbed the luggage on his back like an angry eagle.
Duan Ziyu was startled, and he drew his sword and struck the man's right arm with a move called "Liangyi Dissection".
The man didn't take the move, and nimbly turned his body in the air, landing easily in front. The strange voice said:
"Boy, no wonder you dare to speak arrogantly, but you have some moral integrity."
Duan Ziyu saw that this man looked like Wu Dalang, but his head was surprisingly big, his facial features were flat, and there were no bumps and convexities.
The man chuckled and said, "You little girl, you cheated on me and ruined my big business. I won't see you in Junshan to settle the score with your mother."
One person responded: "Her mother is here, Seven Hands Boy, how do you want to settle this account?"
Duan Ziyu took a look and saw a middle-aged woman jumping down from the left city wall. This man has a big head, short neck, and a very strong body, just like a butcher. His face is extremely ugly, his nostrils are pointed to the sky, and his two front teeth are exposed. He is very scary.
The girl called "Mother" and ran over. When Duan Ziyu heard her call her mother and saw the mother and daughter being affectionate, he felt for the first time that there was nothing more strange in the world than this.
How could such an ugly girl with no salt give birth to such a beautiful and elegant daughter? It is really unbelievable.
Seeing her arrival, Qishou Boy was actually a little scared. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Gang Leader Shi, I was just joking with Qing'er. Don't worry about it."
Gang Leader Shi snorted and didn't even look at him, showing disdain.
Duan Ziyu secretly laughed in his heart, you two are so ugly that they can be called a wonderful pair through the ages, but you don’t know where they came from.
The leader of the Shi Gang is Shi Hongshi, the leader of the Beggar Clan. His father, Shi Huolong, was the former gang leader and was well loved by the gang. Later, he was killed by Hunyuan Thunderbolt Hand Chengkun, the master of the Golden Retriever Lion King Xie Xun, and died unexpectedly. Shi Hongshi was rescued by the people from the Tomb of the Living Dead. After being sent back to the Beggar Gang, the gang members were grateful for Shi Huolong's kindness and regarded this woman as their gang leader, and that girl Shi Qing was her daughter.
Wu Zhinai, a boy with seven hands, was a famous figure in Hanzhong. He contracted a strange disease when he was young. Although he was cured, his body was still like that of a child, but his head was surprisingly big.
Although a human being is like a five-inch nail, his brain is extremely intelligent. A pair of skillful hands can make a wooden cow, a horse, a paper kite, etc. all look like living creatures.
There are no servants in the house, except for the Cangtou who looks after the door and the old woman who works under the stove. All the tea and cleaning tasks are done by these wooden figures made by them. They are also good at concealed weapons and fed with unique poisons. Once they get involved, , no one can understand it.
Therefore, when people in Hanzhong heard about the name of the Seven Hands Boy, they all talked about him changing his temper and being unable to avoid him. The Seven Hands praised him for being as skillful as other people's seven hands, but it also implied that he was brilliant in stealing skills.
Originally, his family was rich and there was no need to steal. However, after he became disabled since childhood, his temperament changed drastically. When he saw that others had good things, he would never be willing to take them as his own or steal them and destroy them. .
Rich families in the Hanzhong area had their things stolen. If they heard or concluded that it was a seven-hand boy who had done it, they would give up their desire to find it. Shi Qing was his only disciple who was worthy of his discipleship.
The boy with seven hands was also middle-aged and single. He didn't know what his fate was, but he fell in love with Shi Hongshi unrequitedly and pursued him for more than twenty years. As he grew older and stronger, Shi Hongshi was ruthless and disdainful of him. Gu, everyone who knew about this was speechless at first, then shook his head in confusion, and finally sighed that it was an unreasonable fate set by God.
This time the two agreed to obtain the Nine Yin Scriptures. Shi Qing first stepped in to steal the book. When he saw that it was not possible, the Seven-hand Boy made a fake saddle containing a hidden weapon during the meal. As long as he sat up, the needle would penetrate the flesh. , the poison is extremely poisonous and will be fatal at the sight of blood.
Unexpectedly, Shi Qing fell in love at first sight and exposed this sinister trick.
Shi Qing said to Shi Hongshi: "Mom, he doesn't have the Nine Yin Manual, so you and Master shouldn't make things difficult for him."
The seven-hand boy chuckled and said, "Clan leader Shi, you can't keep a girl in college. This little girl, Qing'er, is having an affair."
Shi Hongshi hummed: "My own daughter knows it herself, and I don't need you to make sarcastic remarks. It's all because of your incompetence in teaching that Qing'er was caught by mistake. She owes a favor, and of course she has to repay it."
"Now it's a retaliation, it's even, Mr. Duan, whether you have the scripture or not, come with me to Junshan. The Beggar Clan will never let you fall into the hands of others."
Duan Ziyu had no good impression of her at first, but hearing her strong words made her even more disgusted. He raised his sword and said:
"As long as you have the ability, Duan from the Underworld will accompany you on a journey."
The seven-handed boy Jie Jie said with a strange smile: "Boy, if you dare to be rude to the leader of the Beggar Clan, I will make you suffer a lot." The sweetheart is in front of you.
How could he not take the opportunity to show off his skills and use the idea of making his sweetheart happy? He immediately moved forward bravely and showed his unyielding spirit.
Duan Ziyu saw him and rushed towards him.
The momentum was so strong that he leaned sideways and grabbed his shoulder with a claw.
After taking the "Innate Creation Pill", his skill increased several times.
Before the claw could be caught, the wind from the claw penetrated into his bones. The seven-handed boy let out a strange cry and thrust away diagonally. He flicked his right hand and hit a hidden weapon. Duan Ziyu saw the hidden weapon emit a dazzling blue light in the sunlight. , not daring to neglect, smashed all the hidden weapons away with one move of "Thunder Sky Strong".
The Seven-Handed Boy's left shoulder was in pain as if it was cracking. He grinned and his plain face became hilly. He became so angry that he returned to his body.
With one leg on the left and one on the right, the person spins like a windmill and kicks out seventy-two "invisible phantom kicks" in an instant. This is his famous stunt. When used, the reaction is truly extraordinary.
Duan Ziyu showed no sign of weakness and immediately attacked the Eight-clawed Sixty West Sword. The eight-clawed sword was fierce and powerful. Even though the seven-handed boy had good leg skills, he would never dare to use his flesh and blood to attack the Nine-yin White Bones that opened the gold-cracked stone. Claw, he had to change his moves immediately.
The Sixty Western Moves and Heavenly Thunder Sword Technique seemed to be the leg techniques used to restrain the seven-handed boy.
The boy with seven hands was horrified. He saw that every move of the opponent seemed to be specially created to restrain his own leg skills. In the middle of the move, it was like sending his own leg to the edge. He had no choice but to change his moves. He even lost the effort to fire a hidden weapon. No, as long as you slow down for a moment, these two legs will no longer belong to you.
This Heavenly Thunder Sword Technique is imitated from the Book of Changes, in which the principles of the mutual interdependence of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements are inherent, and contains the principles of the change of all things in the heaven and earth.
Therefore, every time the opponent makes a move, there is a corresponding restraint move in the swordsmanship. The seven-hand boy thought that it was specially created to restrain himself, but he was exaggerating too much.
Duan Ziyu used this sword technique to fight an enemy for the first time. Although the fire was not strong enough, and the experience of facing the enemy was superficial, this allowed the seven-handed boy to kick all seventy-two invisible phantom kicks.
If Zhang Zhongzhong were here, with one move, the Seven-Handed Boy would change his size to a "Legless Boy".
The seven-handed boy couldn't change it in one breath, and all his internal strength was lost in an instant, and he fell to the ground.
Duan Ziyu took advantage of the situation and pressed his sword against his throat. With just a slight exertion of his hand, the seven-handed boy died. He heard two screams: "Don't hurt him" and "Don't hurt my master." Duan Ziyu originally I hate the vicious methods of this seven-handed boy.
I almost fell into his evil ways, and this sword was going to kill him. When I heard Shi Qing's cry, my heart softened and I stopped using my sword.
The seven-handed boy only heard Shi Hongshi's words "Don't hurt him." He felt that the sound of the Buddha's words was not so holy, and the call of the Galing bird was also much inferior.
I feel a mixture of sadness and joy in my heart, but I am happy that she has always treated her with cold words and cold expressions for more than ten years. No matter what I do for her or what I say to her, she never pretends to be polite.
At this critical moment of life and death, he finally gained a few rays of love from her, and his heart was filled with excitement, wishing he could die for her one more time.
The sad thing is that he suffered such a disastrous defeat. Even if he survived, it would be difficult for him to deal with his sweetheart in the future. He felt cruel in his heart and became violent. He raised his wrist and hit Duan Ziyu on the chest with a hidden weapon.
He tried his best, and his power was like lightning. Unexpectedly, Duan Ziyu was so close, and when he saw the blue light flying towards him, he felt his chest tremble, knowing that he had been tricked, and when the sword in his hand was about to penetrate his throat, he suddenly thought , since I must die, why should I kill one more person and create more karma?
With a thought of compassion, the sword dropped. He sat on the ground, feeling dizzy in his head. He instinctively gathered his mind to keep the spiritual platform empty.
Hearing Shi Hongshi mother and daughter exclaim "No" at the same time, both Qishou Tongzi and Duan Ziyu understood the meaning, and both had a few wisps of tenderness lingering in their hearts.
Shi Qing cried: "Master, if he doesn't hurt you, why should you kill him?"
The seven-handed boy finished his words and said after a moment: "How could your master allow others to survive? Whether he kills me or not, I will kill him. People in the martial arts live a life of licking blood with the blade of a knife, and those who deserve to be killed should be killed." To kill."
Although his words were harsh, he did not dare to face Shi Hongshi.
Shi Qing cried out: "Master Duan, it was me who hurt you, and I can't live anymore." He picked up the sword on the ground and was about to commit suicide.
Shi Hongshi was horrified and hurriedly shouted: "I can't do it."
The strike of a palm was exactly the "Exalted Dragon Regrets" of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms. This palm was the most powerful among the eighteen palms. Even though it was five feet away, it still sent the sword flying.
Duan Ziyu suddenly said: "It doesn't have to be like this." The poisonous needle in his chest fell.
The three of them are all powerful, and Shi and his daughter know the basics of the seven-hand boy's hand strength. Once, at the headquarters of Junshan, the Beggar Clan, while the Seven Hands Boy was intoxicated, he showed off his martial arts skills and drove more than a dozen poisonous needles into a stone. After smashing the stone, none of the dozens of poisonous needles remained unchanged. Not broken.
The three of them all thought that they were so close to each other, and this time they had tried their best to do it, and the poisonous needle would definitely penetrate the heart, and even the poison was superfluous.
It turns out that although Duan Ziyu was unable to dodge, when he faced the enemy, the internal power of the Nine Yin Manual was stimulated by the innate creation pill and had already spread all over his body. When he was attacked by an external object, he naturally reacted and gathered in one place to resist the external force. Just like the reaction of human eyelids, no conscious command is needed.
Therefore, these needles only penetrated half of the flesh and were blocked.
Duan Ziyu gathered his inner strength, forced the poison into his chest, and with all his strength, the poisonous needle and poisonous blood came out.
The three of them didn't know that he had taken the "Innate Creation Pill" and thought that his internal strength had made him nearly indestructible, but they were wrong again.
Duan Ziyu stood up slowly, unable to get rid of the remaining poison in his chest, and he still couldn't control his inner breath.
Black and purple poisonous blood trickled down along the skirts of their clothes, leaving the three of them speechless in shock.
Duan Ziyu picked up the sword and said with a forced smile: "Master Shi, do you still want to give me some advice?"
Shi Hongshi is the leader of the largest gang in the world, how could he do this to add insult to injury.
Although I desperately want to get the Nine Yin Scripture, and now I just need to knock this kid down and take him back to Junshan without worrying about not getting the Scripture. But in this case, wouldn't the Beggar Gang's reputation in the world for decades be destroyed by his own hands?
Although she is a woman, she has always been more decisive and decisive than a man. She waved her hands in a flash and said: "Mr. Duan, the Beggar Clan allows you to pass this test.
"If you really survive the disaster in the future, you can go to Junshan and regain the situation you had today. Even though I, Shi Hongshi, am a woman, I will definitely give you justice. Seven-hand boy, give him the antidote."
The seven-handed boy quickly took out two porcelain bottles, threw them over and said:
"The red one is applied externally and the black one is taken internally. Make no mistake. There is really no cure."
Duan Ziyu tried his best to shock the poisonous wound, but he was unable to fight anymore. After taking it, he took the two medicines externally and internally, bandaged the wound properly, jumped on the horse's back with all his strength, and walked with the sword in hand.
Seven Hands Boy's unique antidote was very effective. After a short time, the black and purple blood no longer flowed out of the wound, and the numbness and itching disappeared.
The clarity in his head is as clear as ever, and the slight injuries to his skin are no longer a hindrance to him.
He suddenly reined in the horse, turned around and said with a smile: "Sister, why is it you again? How long are you going to haunt me?"
Shi Qing secretly jumped on the horse. He originally wanted to bluff him, but he didn't want to be seen through. He couldn't help but feel a little disappointed and said strangely:
"How do you know it was me?"
Duan Ziyu smiled and said: "As soon as I smelled such a fragrance, I knew it was you, so there was no need to look."
Shi Qing curled his lips and said: "It doesn't cost anything to brag. I haven't applied makeup since I was a child. Where does the fragrance come from?"
Duan Ziyu pretended to be surprised and said, "Is it true? Let me take a closer look to see if I am really mistaken."
As he spoke, he stretched his head to Shi Qing's neck, making a gesture of wanting to take a big and special sniff.
Shi Qing's face turned red and he was panicked. He stretched out his hand involuntarily to support him, and pushed Duan Ziyu's chest injury with his palm.
Duan Ziyu said "Ah yo", turned over and fell off the horse, and fell heavily to the ground with a loud sound. Shi Qing also screamed, her face changed horribly, and without thinking about this palm in the critical situation, she actually used the ten skills of subduing the dragon given to her by Shi Hongshi. Among the eight palms, "A strong dragon has regrets".
When he saw Duan Ziyu flying down from the horse, his head could not stand up straight, but his hands were stained with blood, which showed that he had broken his unhealed wound, he quickly jumped off the horse and leaned over Duan Ziyu's face.
As soon as she felt his breath, she felt a chill in her heart. She burst into tears. Not only did his breath come and go, but even the muscles she touched became cold and hard. She put her ear against his chest, and her heart became silent. She suddenly Feeling that his hands and feet were all weak, he leaned over Duan Ziyu and cried bitterly.
After crying for a while, I suddenly heard Duan Ziyu say: "Yes, that's right. Girl, I've been smelling it for a long time, and I can't be wrong. It must be this fragrance."
When Shi Qing heard his voice, he shivered and shouted: "Ghost, Brother Yu, I didn't mean it. Don't be a ghost to scare me."
Duanzi Yushou sat up and said with a smile: "Langlang Qiankun, where did the ghost come from? Sister, what did you call me just now? Call me a few more times."
As soon as Shi Qing saw his sly eyes, he knew he was a man and not a ghost, and couldn't help but blush.
My heart changed from sadness to joy, but tears still fell.
This slap was really not light, and it would have been better if it had been hit somewhere else, but it happened to be the key point of "Tanzhong", and it had been injured by the seven-handed boy.
Duan Ziyu was lying on the ground, using the "Turtle Breathing Technique" in the Sutra to regulate the inner breath, clear the meridians, and treat external injuries. It was not purely to scare Shi Qing. When she saw that she was panicked and confused, she came to check his breathing. He simply held his breath and pretended to be dead to scare her.
But seeing that she was crying very sadly, he got up.
Lest she seek death and survival again.
Duan Ziyu hugged him and said, "Good girl, I'm not dead, why are you still crying?"
Shi Qing's shoulders were wrapped in his arms, and he wanted to break free, but was afraid of using too much force. What's the point of regretting another fight? I really regret it.
Therefore, he didn't dare to move, and said coquettishly: "It would be better if you died, so as not to be frivolous if you don't come. You are the young prince, and I am a beggar and a little thief. I blame me for not being in vain and coming to see you with my good intentions." No matter how injured you are, it’s because of your frivolity.”
As he spoke, tears broke out again and out of control.
Duan Ziyu panicked and said, "Good girl, how dare I be frivolous towards you? Tell me so I can change my ways in the future."
Shi Qing said: "You...you...you." He even said the word "you" three times, but he couldn't tell why Duan Ziyu was frivolous.
She has been held in high esteem like a princess in the Beggar Clan since she was little. When ordinary members of the Clan see her, they naturally treat her with respect and shun her. The elders they meet frequently are all very old, so there is no need to talk to them. To avoid suspicion, I know very little about the relationship between men and women.
It was just that she was in her late teens and had just begun to have a romantic interest. She vaguely felt that it was inappropriate for Duan Ziyu to smell the fragrance on her neck, which was a bit close to what people call "frivolous".
But if I point it out with certainty, I don’t know how to say it.
And now that I am being held in his arms, it seems that I shouldn't, but I like it very much.
Duan Ziyu was even more confused than she was. He only spent time with Ouyang Jiu. Ouyang Jiu told him everything he knew, but he didn't say a word about this matter.
Therefore, Duan Ziyu only has good guys, bad guys, relatives, and enemies in his heart, and he has no idea about the differences between men and women.
Duan Ziyu felt very proud when he saw her hesitating and unable to explain.
He became particularly close to Shi Qing as soon as he saw him, so he teased Wuji.
At this time, I saw her blushing and green cheeks, her pear dimples slightly appearing, and she was so gorgeous under the sunset. I couldn't help feeling emotional, and said softly: "Good girl, tell me, why did you come to me on your own? Where are your mother and the others?" ?”
Shi Qing felt two waves of heat coming through his hands, his whole body suddenly felt hot, and his heart was pounding like a pair of little rabbits.
Busy and gently broke away from his arm, turned her face away, letting the night breeze blow her feverish cheeks, and said quietly after a while:
"Who calls you 'girl' in a restaurant? You call 'girl' so affectionately that it makes people hard-hearted and afraid that you will leave with injuries.
"On the road, I was taken advantage of by those little thieves who suffered thousands of blows, so I secretly came here to help you. If I can't help you, I will die with you."
Duan Ziyu was ecstatic when he heard this.
When he made his debut, in addition to his enemies, he was a stranger who had nothing to do with him. Every time he thought that he would be like a duckweed, wandering the Western Sea, he could not help but hurt his own life and shed tears of sadness. Every time he saw the lights on, there was laughter. When I saw the thatched cottage and farmhouse, I was filled with envy.
Now seeing that Shi Qing was so deeply in love with him, and that there were so many confidantes in the sky that he could rely on, he was filled with joy and sorrow, and his tears flowed down his face.
When Shi Qing heard that he didn't reply, he turned around. Seeing this venerable face, he felt puzzled and full of love and affection. He stretched out his sleeves to wipe away his tears and asked with concern: "Brother Yu, what's wrong? Did I do it?" It hurts your wound."
Duan Ziyu shook his head and said: "No. It's because I feel sad about my life experience. Although I don't have any relatives in this world, it's rare for a girl to be so kind to me, so I shed tears."
Shi Qing heard the desolation he said and couldn't help but blurt out: "I will be so good to you for the rest of my life."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Jue felt speechless, but Duan Ziyu was overjoyed and said, "Really?"
Shi Qing saw his eager face and said resolutely: "Definitely."
Shi Qing calmed down at this time and stretched out his palm to meet him three times.
Thinking that within half a day I had privately made a lifelong appointment, even though I had no regrets about having such a good relationship, I felt empty in my heart. I couldn't say whether I was happy or sad.
Duan Ziyu was overjoyed, but completely unaware of the most solemn truth contained in these simple words and rituals. He held her hands and said, "Sister, thank you for being so good to me. I will be so good to you all my life."
Shi Qing felt sour in his heart and said with a smile: "Brother Yu, you are good to me. I want to steal your things, but not only do you not blame me, you also treat me to a drink and give me gold."
As he spoke, he took out the ingot of gold from his sleeve, and only now did he feel how heavy the ingot of gold was.
Duan Ziyu said: "What does this mean? Girls like it. I have better ones here."
Opening the package, he took out a pearl necklace and hung it around her neck, a crested hairpin in her bun, and a shrimp whisker bracelet on her wrist.
Shi Qing couldn't bear to wipe out his good intentions and let him do whatever he wanted.
I thought in my mind that this might be what people call Wen Ding Na Bein's coin.
Duan Ziyu finished decorating the floor, took two steps back and watched it carefully. I just feel that this jewelry is more and more radiant.
He sighed in admiration. Shi Qing was embarrassed by him.
I saw that the sky was full of sunset and it was late, but this area was very desolate, with not even a place to stay.
He stood up and said, "Brother Yu, let's get on the road quickly. There is a small town thirty miles ahead, so hurry up and stay there."
Duan Ziyu immediately remembered that there were important things to do, and hurriedly led the horse. He saw the west wind blowing coldly, and it was very strong. Shi Qingqing was undressed with green sleeves, fearing that she would not be able to withstand the cold, so he took out a black velvet cloak with a mink collar and wrapped it around her. The two walked side by side, Wuyama's footsteps were very fast, and they arrived at the small town just as the sun was setting.
There are not many residents in the town, and there is only one inn. There are not many merchants in this area, and the business is very light. When the shopkeeper saw a pair of beauties in bright clothes and angry horses, he felt extremely honored. People were busy running around, so they didn't have much time to prepare a fairly neat table of food and drinks.
Duan Ziyu drank with her, and they were in a happy mood. Halfway through the drink, Shi Qing took Duan Ziyu's hand under the table.
Written one stroke after another, outsiders might have thought that the young couple was drunk and flirting, but Duan Ziyu was shocked. What Shi Qing wrote was: "Wine is poisonous, so be careful." Reckless and vicious thoughts.”
Duan Ziyu secretly moved his Qi to check, and found that he had indeed been tricked, but he could not figure out who the poisoner was, so he had to secretly raise his Qi, gather the poison into a ball, and force it into his stomach, feeling awe-inspiring in his heart.
A person came out of the kitchen and said in a sweet voice: "The young emperor has arrived. I'm sorry to see you at a distance, but I hope you'll forgive me. I'm here to greet you."
Having said that, he received three blessings by gathering his clothes, and his charming and charming expression was not without respect.
Duan Ziyu was furious when he saw it, and shouted: "Wu Qingying, you are such a thief, how dare you come to see me?"
When Shi Qing was about to make a move, Shi Qing hurriedly took his hand and squeezed it hard. Duan Ziyu remembered her admonition "be careful not to act rashly" and sat down again.
Although Wu Qingying is over 40 years old, he respects his appearance and is quite good at beauty care, so he looks like he is no more than thirty years old.
The coquettish and graceful girl is more charming than ordinary girls, which is quite inconsistent with her nickname of "Snow Ridge Hanshu".
Wu Qingying said with a smile: "My little prince, my concubines, etc. have some rudeness. There are so many of you, so why should you be angry? Don't let your anger break your dragon body.
"My concubine was busy picking up the car and preparing wine. She accidentally sprinkled a bottle of medicinal powder among the wine and food. She ruined the work and was afraid that the young prince would be anxious while waiting. Anyway, there is no problem in eating this food. It's just that you can't be with others for the time being. Just do it.
"I think that the young emperor is the most powerful person in the world. Even if there is a big thing, I will take care of it for you. Why don't you do it yourself? The little emperor simply rests for a few days. This medicine will last for three to five days." It’s over.”
Someone next to me said loudly: "Junior sister, what are you talking about with this guy? It's like he is really an emperor. It's not damaging your identity."
Duan Ziyu followed the sound, but it was Wei Bi who was dressed as a young boy standing next to Wu Qingying. He was quite clever in disguise. If he didn't make a sound, it would be difficult to recognize him as the suave and outstanding owner of Wei Village.
Wu Qingying and Zheng Rong said: "Brother, what you said is extremely disrespectful. I think our ministers of the Western Empire have respected the Duan family as the emperor for generations. Although the young emperor has lost his country and is in trouble, it is a shame for us as ministers.
"For so many years, every generation of our Western ministers has not taken it as their own responsibility to revive the Dali homeland. It is a pity that we are weak and the time has not come, so we are in vain.
"Although we are unworthy, we should uphold the legacy of our ancestors. How dare we forget our old master. The young emperor is so powerful that we should follow him and be willing to die for him."
Duan Ziyu secretly marveled in his heart that it was difficult to tell a big lie in front of his face without blushing and his heart not beating. However, speaking so generously and fiercely, full of loyalty, did not require eloquence.
He originally thought that if he fell into the hands of these two people, his heart would suffer a lot of humiliation before he died, so he never dared to use his kung fu to force the poison out of his body. His palms were full of kung fu, and as soon as the two men approached, he suddenly took action. They all die together.
Unexpectedly, Wu Qingying was full of loyalty. If Ouyang Jiu had not said countless times that these two people colluded with a group of masked men to seize Yiyang's fingerprints, Duan Ziyu would have thought that this beautiful woman was really a loyal person.
Shi Qing stretched out his fingers on his back and wrote: "This poison is evil and the antidote is ineffective." He was completely desperate at this moment.
Shi Qing's master, Qishou Tongzi, is an expert at using poison. Anyone who uses poison must be good at detoxifying it. Therefore, Shi Qing has all kinds of detoxifying pills in her bag. She took advantage of the conversation between several people and secretly took them. There are more than a dozen antidotes, but every one of them is like a cow drowning in mud, with no reaction at all.
She was so panicked that she wrote it on Duan Ziyu's back. Although she is young, she is also experienced in the arena, and her experience in the arena is much richer than that of Duan Ziyu. Although she does not know the personalities of Wu Qingying and Wei Bi, she knows that they are life and death enemies once they encounter this battle.
Previously, she had told Duan Ziyu not to act rashly, because she was counting on her master's antidote pill, but since the antidote didn't work, she had no choice but to do her best.
Suddenly I heard someone say outside the window: "I can't tell, Leng Qian. It's hard to find a hotel in this remote country. I've been talking about it these days. Grandma, after all, there is one here. Although it's not a good one, the bald guy has no hair." , I have to make do with it.”
The words came from far and near, and in a moment the three of them walked to the door of the store. Wei Bi's expression changed rapidly, and he reached out to pull out the long sword under his robe. Wu Qingying waved her hand hurriedly, turned around and walked into the kitchen.
While Wei Bilue was pondering, the three of them strode in.
But I saw a stout man carrying a yellow dog. He threw the dog on the table and said loudly:
"Shop owner, skin and clean this dog, and braise it in large pieces to go with the wine."
The waiters in the store were all servants of Wujiazhuang. Seeing that the owner didn't say anything, they had no choice but to raise their smiles and take the dog to the kitchen to clean it up.
Zhou Dian turned around and saw Duan Ziyu leaning on the table, obviously drunk. Only Shi Qingwu was sitting at the table, looking shocked.
The table was full of wine and food, and the aroma wafted up. When Zhou Dian smelled it, his index finger moved. He couldn't bear it anymore and said loudly:
"Little girl, I'll give you a drink and I'll pay you back later." He picked up a glass of wine and poured it into his mouth.
Shi Qing chuckled and said, "I don't need to apologize. It's just that the wine is poisonous and you shouldn't drink it."
Zhou Dian was startled and threw his head back. The water from the wine poured onto his chest, making his clothes dripping. He was really embarrassed.
He sniffed the wine hard again and said, "This kid is so stingy. What is a glass of wine worth? It scares me."
Shi Qing smiled and said, "Who wouldn't want to part with a glass of wine? As long as you believe that you are immune to all poisons, you can drink as much wine as you want here. But don't blame me for not telling you when you get to the Palace of the King of Hell."
When Zhou Dian saw her charming smile and the relaxed and cunning look on her face, he was unconvinced. However, he had fought hundreds of battles in his life. No matter how high his opponent's martial arts were, he had never been discouraged by surrendering. He was most afraid of "poison". I know very well that no matter how powerful your martial arts is, as long as you are not in the realm of indestructibility and invulnerability to all poisons.
Once you are addicted to the "poisonous" Tao, it will be like Tai'a's reverse position. Not only is the chance of life and death in the opponent's hands, but it often makes you unable to survive or die. This is the most tragic thing.
Therefore, even though Zhou Dian was as bold as a fighter, the smell of wine and meat made him feel itchy and unbearable, but he did not dare to test the poison himself.
He was waiting to catch a waiter to give him a try, but when he turned around to look, there were only Shuan Bu and Leng Qian in the hall, but the others had disappeared.
It turned out that when Wei Bi saw these three demons coming in, his head was as big as a fight. Before he could think of how to deal with it, Shi Qing revealed the secret of poison in the food and wine.
Knowing that this was not difficult to prove, even if he, his wife, and several servants swarmed him unprepared, they were no match for these three demons, so they made a prompt decision and sneaked into the kitchen, joined Wu Qingying, and slipped out through the back door. That's right.
These servants were well-trained, and when they saw their master leaving, they all remained calm and left calmly in twos and threes through the front door and the back door respectively.
It's hard to say that although Leng Qian felt something was wrong, seeing that these people's martial arts were average and they didn't take action against him, he didn't bother to intercept them.
Duan Ziyu, who was lying on the table, suddenly raised his head, opened his mouth, and sprayed arrows like a stream of water out the door. He picked up Shi Qing with his left hand and said, "Let's go."
He jumped up from the chair and wanted to chase outside. He couldn't help but shouted: "Stay." A huge cloth bag came over his head.
Duan Ziyu was horrified. He had never seen such a weird weapon. He didn't know how to deal with it for a moment. He had to make a mistake with his foot and use the "Yugang Footwork" taught by Zhang Changchang to avoid this attack.
He said "Huh", which was quite unexpected.
He has used bags as weapons throughout his life and has developed a number of unique skills. When he strikes, few people fall into the bag without warning. When Mingjiao leader Zhuang Wuji first met him, he put it into the bag at once, with a bright light on his back. With the help of his father, he was freed from the disaster of the collapse of Mingjiao (see the story of "Yitian Slaying the Dragon").
In recent years, he has been diligently striving for perfection in the art of trapping people with bags, and he rarely fails.
Seeing that one set cannot be followed by two sets. Duan Ziyu whirled away, raised his toes, and raised the table. The wine flask, wine cup, cups, plates, bowls and chopsticks all flew into the bag, and the soup dripped and clinked.
Zhou Dian put his hands on his hands and laughed and said, "Wonderful, wonderful."
He said with a bitter look on his face: "What a fart, the little boy ruined the monk's magic weapon." He threw it casually.
Throwing the bag out the door, two more bags appeared, one on the left and one on the right. Outflank him.
Shi Qing shouted loudly: "Monk, are you being unreasonable? I won't let you drink poisonous wine for your own good. How can I repay kindness with hatred?"
Zhou Dian was also surprised and said, "I can't tell you. When did you have an affair with these two children?"
Unexpectedly, Duan Ziyu's footwork was exquisite, he was holding a person in his hand, and miraculously dodged his third double set. His suspicion became more solid, and he asked: "Have you forgotten the monk?" What’s it called?”
Zhou Dian said angrily: "Fart, your grandma bullied two babies for no reason, of course you can't say it."
He said he had to be upset, and he looked at Duan Ziyu with both hands, and the two of them moved up and down, going around and around.
Duan Ziyu didn't know the background of these three people at first. He leaned on the table and tried his best to get rid of the poison. After 70%25 to 80%25 of the poison was withdrawn, he saw that Wu Qingying, Wei Bi and others were gone. , did not see these three people clearly.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I saw his face, I suddenly remembered the young man in white clothes in the deserted temple described by Fan Yao and King Yin Ye. After these two people failed, they described the battle in great detail. I couldn't help but see that it was a man and a man. The woman agreed with what Fan Yao and the two said. She thought that these two people were also escaping, so she immediately came out of her bag to intercept them.
As soon as Duan Ziyu saw the bag flying towards him, he understood in his heart that there was only one person in the world who was good at this stunt. This was a unique sign.
Ouyang Jiudu once told him one by one about the famous figures in the world, saying that he could not wait for Wu San people to feel at home, but it was easier to recognize him than by saying that he could not. At the moment, he was complaining that this was a very bad luck.
Seeing that these two cloth bags were so exquisite, he would fall into them if he was not careful. He thought that falling into the hands of Mingjiao would be worse than falling into the hands of Wu Qingying, who knew Yu Gang's footwork very well. Suddenly, the indescribable Dixitao failed again.
It's hard to say that he was shocked, but for him, this was a unique thing.
Zhou Dian and Leng Qian also said "Huh", feeling that this was unbelievable.
Duan Ziyu took advantage of the moment when the three of them were distracted, and in a flash, he floated past the two of them, Zhou Dian and Zhou Dian. Zhou Dian stretched out his hand to grab him, missing his shoulder by two inches, and saw that the two were about to fall apart. Fei Mingming.
Leng Qian, the silent and cold-faced man, raised his hands and shouted: "Hit." Suddenly, there was a loud sound in the air, ten rotten silver short pens and five sticks sealed the door, and five sticks hit Duan Ziyu's back and ribs Big hole.
Duan Ziyu hugged the person with one hand, and the empty door under his left ribs was exposed. He heard the sound of breaking through the air, and knew that it was a heavy concealed weapon. A white light flashed in front of him, so he had to step back. Ten pens collided with each other at the door. , the fire flickered but did not sink. They all turned around and hit Duan and Shi.
He couldn't help but cheer loudly, and clapped his hands and said, "Brother Leng, I haven't seen you for a few years. Your hidden weapon skills have made me even more popular."
I felt very relieved when I saw that the ten short strokes of the pen were strong and heavy, and it was difficult to avoid the feathers of the paragraph falling to the ground.
There were only a few crisp sounds heard, and ten short pens fell to the ground, and they were all cut off by Duan Ziyu's sword. Shi Qing was frightened when the short pens flew towards him. He was poisoned, and his western limbs were all weak. The short pen greets the body, but there is nothing to do with it.
Duan Ziyu cut off all ten pens with one move of "Fire Ming Yi". She hurriedly applauded and said: "Good swordsmanship, Brother Yu, your swordsmanship has improved a lot in this moment. I admire you. admire."
Half of this is sincere praise, and the other half is imitation and ridicule.
It can be said that Bu Bu and Leng Qian could hear it, and their faces turned red, but they were even more frightened.
Seeing that the internal strength of this sword is quite powerful, the direction and speed of the sword are even more extraordinary, and it looks like a famous master craftsman.
Leng Qian is an expert in using swords, and the hidden weapons he shoots are actually equipped with seven or eight kinds of power, which can be first flight, left rotation, right rotation, last attack first, upper one strikes down, and lower one strikes up. The changes are very different. There were so many, even I couldn't cut them all off with one sword like him, so I couldn't help but praise: "Good."
Zhou Dian frowned and said: "Monk, when did you form a relationship with the younger boy?"
Although he was acting crazy, he was quite quick-witted at this time. He called him "monk" instead of "I can't", which was of course an excuse not to say anything without any hesitation.
He said with a bitter face, "It's not the monk who is causing trouble, but Wei Yixiao, Fan Youshi, King Yin Ye, and Hou Tuqi. He is the one who made the connection. The monk only reached out to take care of it for the sake of fellow believers." This thing."
Even though Zhou Dian and Leng Qian had rich experience and experienced countless strange things, they were speechless when they heard them. Isn't it just unimaginable? There is nothing more strange than this in the world.
Zhou Dian looked up and down Duan Ziyu carefully several times, shook his head, and said in wonder: "My little friend, how powerful are you? You dare to marry Wei Yixiao, Fan Yao, and Yin Ye Wang? How can you live to this day?" , It’s really amazing.”
Duan Ziyu laughed loudly and said: "I am just a lonely ghost with no family and no sect. I am really lucky to escape from the hands of Wei Yixiao and King Yin Ye."
He suffered two heavy setbacks at the hands of Wei Yixiao and King Yin Ye. If Baijie Shitai and Zhang Changchang had not rescued him with their peerless magic and the once-in-a-century "Innate Creation Pill", his soul would have returned to the underworld long ago. Ouyang Jiu inevitably lost his life at the hands of Fan Yao. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel angry.
Zhou Dian clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Okay, for your courage and heroism, how about I, Zhou Dian, make friends with you forever? We, the Mingjiao Wusan people, will resolve this problem for you."
He was startled, and quickly waved his hands and said: "No way, brother Dian, if you make friends with this kid, Wu Xing Qi will have to risk his life with you, and this matter is definitely not something that we Wu San people can bear."
Zhou Dian asked in confusion: "How big of a tie can this kid have with the Five Elements Flag?"
It is not surprising to say: "The flag commander of Houtu Banner Yan and more than 20 brothers under his banner were killed in the hands of this kid."
Zhou Dian and Leng Qian were both shocked by the news. Yan Yuan's martial arts skills were not inferior to those of their five brothers, and all of his brothers were among the best in a hundred, experienced in hundreds of battles, and fearless warriors.
Ordinary sects were no match for them. Except when they encountered sects like Shaolin, Wudang, and Emei, they were defeated. They never imagined that they would die at the hands of a weak young man with no reputation.
Leng Qian shouted in a deep voice: "I'll take my life." He stabbed Duan Ziyu with his sword.
