In a delicate small garden in Kanto, a middle-aged man who was as quiet as an ancient tree, with his hands on his sleeves and his long hair shawl, fluttering slightly in the night breeze, a snow-white carrier pigeon rested on his shoulder, and the man's palm gently pinched the note brought by the carrier pigeon, and the note was written in only four neat small words: "Autumn Leaves Sky Dance". Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 The info man sighed lightly and said: "After all, there is no fate, you went to Jingshi, but I came to Kanto, the battle that was not completed three years ago, I don't know when it will continue, Xiaoyue, you can fulfill this wish for your father!" Raising his head, a pair of eyes as deep as autumn water looked at the cold moonlight, and said in his heart: "At this moment, Gu Changfeng must be looking at the same moonlight." ”

......The person who recited the poem was a middle-aged man riding a white horse, about forty years old, although he was brightly dressed, his face was the color of wind and dust, obviously after a long journey, but a pair of deep eyes were still so bright. It is as if the face carved out of marble shows the resolute character of his master. At this time, it is the Huangmei season in the south of the Yangtze River, the weather is always so humid, there is always a drizzle in the air, the middle-aged man pulls the reins of the horse in one hand, and holds a purple bamboo umbrella in the other, letting the white horse walk slowly on the official road. The wicker on the side of the road has pulled out new shoots, and there is a fragrance of leaves wafting in the air, he looked at the misty Jiangnan water town, and said in his heart: "It's really a good place, after a few years to quell the rebellion, I will ask the general to resign, and live in seclusion here, it is also a good thing to come." ”

He is the one who is famous in the rivers and lakes, the head of the four gods of the criminal department, the sword god - Dongfang Xiuming. He became famous at a young age, and won the name of the top spot at the Sword Conference seven years ago. But he has always been unwilling to lose to Su Shengwen, the heir of the Sword Immortal, and in the past seven years, he has perfected his ancestral trick "Heaven Breaking", and he is always looking forward to competing with Su Shengwen again. But Su Shengwen is a figure like an idle cloud and a wild crane, and he has not appeared for many years, so in terms of swordsmanship alone, he is recognized as the first in the world. Dongfang Xiuming didn't care about this title, he only cared about his swordsmanship, his opponent's swordsmanship, although he hadn't met a real opponent for several years.

This time, he came to Jiangnan to capture a key criminal of the criminal department, one of the four great Ming kings of the King Kong clan, King Gu Roar. When it comes to this ancient roar, it is really a headache for talents. His original name was Gu Changfeng, and he was born blind, but he was a genius who practiced swords. At the age of ten, he practiced swords, and at the age of twenty, he became famous, and at the age of twenty-eight, the famous sword "Red Leaf Sky Dance" in his hand was never defeated by anyone, until he participated in the sword conference where the heroes gathered. He finished fifth. In the eyes of many people, this is something to be proud of, but it is intolerable for Gu Roar, and since then, he has been incognito, joined the King Kong clan, and became the King of Fudo. He is a loner, has a strange behavior, often assassinates important ministers in the court, and has repeatedly succeeded, ranking second on the killer list. The Ministry of Punishment has listed him as the first of the list of important criminals, but it has not been able to arrest him because it is unable to keep a close eye on him and never stay in the same place for more than three days.

This opportunity finally came, and for some reason he stayed in the peach blossom dock in the south of the Yangtze River for more than half a month. Dongfang Xiuming is now on the way to Taohuawu, the closer to Taohuawu, the more pleasant the scenery on the side of the road, but Dongfang Xiuming's mood is even heavier, in his heart he really does not want to be the enemy of Gu Roar, there are few people in the world today who can make Dongfang Xiuming look good. Although he failed to fight with Gu Roar at the Sword Conference, his "Red Leaf Sky Dance" left a deep impression on Dongfang Xiuming, and deep down he regarded Gu Roar as a confidant, because he knew that Gu Roar was also the kind of person who loved swords and knew the way to use swords.

Dongfang Xiuming waved his hand, pinched a peach blossom floating in the air with his fingers, looked at it, but found that the corner of the petal was stained red with blood, Dongfang Xiuming was shocked, and said in his heart: "Has the Yamen's arrest already started? I have ordered that no rash actions are allowed, how can these people disobey orders like this, and they will be severely punished when the matter is over." With a thought, he threw the purple bamboo umbrella in his hand to the side, clamped his feet, and the white horse let out a long roar, kicked four times like flying, and galloped towards Taohuawu.

The rain was heavy, but Dongfang Xiuming still smelled a strong smell of blood at the gate of Taohuawu, Dongfang Xiuming wiped the rain on his face and walked in. He had seen so many tragic scenes that even he thought he was numb to the scene, but the scene in front of him shocked him. Twenty or thirty catchers died on the ground, blood and rain, like streams, although these made Dongfang Xiuming feel a trace of sadness, but the appearance of the ancient roar made him even more guilty.

Under a tall peach blossom tree, the rain broke the peach blossoms, and the petals fell on the body of the ancient roar who was covered in blood, he half knelt on the ground, a woman in red died in his arms, and the famous "Red Leaf Sky Dance" was obliquely inserted into the ground, it was a broad-edged sword, the sword body was crimson, and only countless blood could make a sword show this color. Gu Roar's long hair was scattered and draped, Dongfang Xiuming couldn't see his face clearly, but even if he could see it clearly, Dongfang Xiuming wouldn't bear to look at it, what he couldn't see the most was this kind of scene of life and death.

Dongfang Xiuming finally understood why Gu Roar stayed in Taohuawu for so long, everything was because of the word "love", he himself had an unforgettable experience when he was young, he understood Gu Roar's feelings at this time, Dongfang Xiuming sighed: "Ask what the world is like, only teach people to live and die!"

Gu Yan slowly raised his head, and he stared at him with a pair of gray eyes, as if he could see Dongfang Xiuming. There were still tears in his eyes, and there were still blood flowers, but he didn't have any expression, and asked word by word, "Dongfang Xiuming?"

"It's down there. Dongfang Xiuming replied: "The Red Leaf Sky Dance really lives up to its reputation, and I can't hold you with so many of my subordinates!"

"These beasts!" Gu Roar scolded: "They can't resist me, so they sneak attack Xiao Qian, and want to use this to blackmail me, it's really better to treat a weak woman like this!"

"It's not easy to be a confidant in life. Dongfang Xiuming subconsciously pressed his hand on the hilt of his "Canglong Yin" sword, and said: "This is not the original intention of the next, today you were hit hard, I shouldn't have done anything with you, but you are a criminal in the criminal department, I can't just let you go!"

"Hmph!" Gu Roar smiled bitterly and said, "I've always wanted to learn your swordsmanship, but I didn't expect it to be in this situation. He slowly put Xiao Qian's body on a pile of petals, and suddenly waved his hand, the red light flashed, and the red leaf Tianwu was already in his hand, and said, "Please advise!"

"Zheng!" With a sound, Dongfang Xiuming had pulled out Canglong Yin, the sword was full of energy, the sky was very dark, the snow blossom that emanated from Canglong Yin's sword was like lightning, Dongfang Xiuming said loudly: "Your physical strength is exhausted, I don't want to take advantage of you, if you can't stab you down within ten moves, you can leave, but these ten moves are the essence of my life, and the last move will be 'Tianpo', which was originally prepared for Su Shengwen, but there has been no chance, you have to be careful to take the move." ”

"Worthy of being the sword god, it really has everyone's demeanor!" Gu Roar praised: "You act brightly, if you can die under your sword, it is also a good thing, I just hope that after I die, you can bury me and Xiao Qian together, I don't know if you can agree?" Although it was only the first time he met, Gu Roar believed in Dongfang Xiuming for no reason, he knew that if he did not have the momentum to die and be reborn, he would definitely lose this battle.

Dongfang Xiuming didn't speak again, just nodded, although he knew that Gu Roar was invisible, he didn't treat Gu Roar as a blind person. When his head was raised, there was already a red light in front of him, Dongfang Xiuming immediately waved out the Canglong Yin in his hand, and the thick sword qi shot the rain out, the snowy sword body seemed to be shrouded in a layer of faint smoke, the two swords did not touch, but the sword bodies swept each other, but Dongfang Xiuming and Gu Roar both felt the sword qi emitted by the other party's sword, and both of them were amazed by each other in their hearts.

The rain has already decreased a lot, but the peach blossoms in the courtyard are falling more urgently. By the time of the fifth move, Dongfang Xiuming could no longer see the sword body of the Red Leaf Sky Dance clearly, he only felt that there was a red curtain around him, everything was red, red people, red rain, red peach blossoms. Dongfang Xiuming has not been so close to death for a long time, his long-hidden sword intent was completely stimulated, and he attacked four moves in a row in one breath, each move was an incomparably exquisite sound, but the Red Leaf Sky Dance did not have the slightest defeat, but was more gorgeous and brilliant! Dongfang Xiuming was excited, the sword intent of the first nine moves was like nine streams, surging from all directions, and finally converged together, and the flawless "Sky Break" was formed, and one move was struck, and the stone broke the sky!

The red curtain formed by the Red Leaf Sky Dance was split by a dazzling light, and suddenly everything was quiet, both of them stood still like statues, and the peach blossom petals in the sky were urged by the sword qi to fly, spinning and falling on the heads and bodies of the two. Gu Roar had an extremely thin sword mark on his face, from his forehead through his left eye to the corner of his mouth, obviously he had lost.

"Nine and a half moves. Gu roared suddenly: "If the last trick 'Heaven Break' is completely used, I will already be a dead person, why not spare my life?"

"I don't want to have regrets. Dongfang Xiuming replied: "Although Tianpo is a rare good move, but a good opponent is more difficult to find, although you are blind, but there are no distractions, self-contained, I have always been conceited, but now I want to use this trick to deal with a person with physical overdraft, win or wait for your physical strength to be normal in the future, and then let me finish this trick!"

After speaking, the lightning flashed in his hand, the long sword was unsheathed, he walked out of the door, turned over his horse, and said, "You better leave quickly, someone will come later." ”

Gu Roar listened to Dongfang Xiuming, who disappeared in the rain, and slowly raised the Red Leaf Sky Dance in front of him, and suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood, the blood sprayed on the sword, and the Red Leaf Sky Dance was even more poignant, he smiled bitterly and said: "He knew that I was seriously injured, and he couldn't bear to be heavy-handed, how can I face such a character in the future!"

Three years later, on the ancient city wall in the suburbs, Gu Yan stood tall, looking at the cold moonlight with a pair of gray eyes, and said in his heart: "At this moment, Dongfang Xiuming must be looking at the same moonlight." ”
