Chapter Ninety-Two: The Praying Mantis Catches the Cicada
"Knock-knock! knock!" came a series of four bangs, and then a loud shout came from afar: "It's dry, watch out for the candle!"
In a narrow alley, a black shadow flickered by, the bright moonlight fell like water, and the figure was like a smoke blown by the wind. The black shadow looked in the direction from which the sound of bangzi came from, and muttered to himself, "It's already four watches! β
It turns out that this fight is more exquisite, just now the bang sounded, but it is a slow and three fast, that is, the sound of the fourth watch; usually three watches, there will be a slow and two fast sounds; if one slow and four fast, it is the fifth watch, so everyone does not have to go out at night, just listen to the sound of the bang to know the time of the day.
But he said that the black shadow just now held on to the wall and coughed for a while, as if he was a little eroded by the cold, and his body was slightly unwell, so he couldn't help shrinking slightly, then looked at the sky, and was about to leave.
He seemed to have a sense, and his body shook, and he looked in the direction of Fang Cai's voice, but saw a black shadow following behind him, only about ten feet. "Your Excellency has been with me for a long time, why haven't you seen it?" he couldn't help but smile and asked, "But hasn't the helper come yet?"
The black shadow took two steps forward slightly, and said with a smile: "Stinky boy, but you haven't seen me for more than ten days, you don't remember me? β
"It turned out to be Senior Xue! Ashamed! Ashamed! Guichen failed to recognize it in time, please don't blame the senior!" It turned out that Guichen had been injured since the time he escaped from Chen's Mansion, and Chen Liang's last blow actually hit the Northern Ming True Qi into his body, although Guichen resolved it in time, but it was not prevented from Chen Liang's ruthlessness and hurt his ankles and muscles between shots, so he used the smoke to escape.
He heard Xue Qingbi's voice, so he relaxed slightly, and said, "Why did the senior follow me?" Xue Qingbi didn't ask him what he said, but he sighed and said with a smile: "Stinky boy, you are far worse than your father back then, after he was injured back then, he can still easily dodge my sneak attack, you kid has been followed by me for so long and you haven't found out, hum! It seems that you must not be good at learning!"
"Alas!" Guichen sighed, glanced at him, saw that he smiled slightly, and seemed to have no malicious intent, he couldn't help but say: "Senior, if you come to laugh at me, then I can go, tossing for a long time, I'm tired!"
"Stop!" Xue Qingbi saw that he was obedient, and snorted: "I've been following you for so long, of course I'm going to teach you a lesson!" Guichen looked him up and down for a while, and suddenly said: "Senior, you don't still remember what happened in the dragon bone land that day, do you? Xue Qingbi shook his head and chuckled: "You are wrong, it is true that we saw that you suddenly acted defenselessly that day, but if it weren't for me and Yan Ning secretly showing mercy, the three of you would be right with us, and the victory or defeat would not be as you expected." β
"Hey!" Guichen said: "Since you have already let us go that day, why don't you let it go again today? Is it just to teach me a lesson? In fact, Guichen has always been unclear about something, and asked the seniors to solve my doubts." Seeing him nodding, Guichen said again, "When did you send a message to tell Chen Liang that I know martial arts?"
"You kid is really!" Xue Qingbi suddenly smiled and said, "Then you might as well guess!" Guichen pouted and shook his head, and said secretly in his heart: "It's been more than ten days since we came out, I'm afraid that this matter has long been known to the world, and I blame me for being too naΓ―ve." But he said, "Don't guess, don't you say I'm really leaving!" Xue Qingbi snorted coldly, just about to teach him a lesson.
"Where do you want to go?" Suddenly, a voice came from a nearby alley. The two turned their heads when they heard the sound, but saw one person walking out of the alley slowly, and finally saw clearly when they appeared in the bright light, it was Chen Chen who came!
Guichen saw that he was hanging the Heavenly Xuan Sword on his waist, carrying a peerless sword, and he looked complacent, he was even smiling, his eyes were awe-inspiring, and he clapped his hands and said: "I finally found you! I'm still worried that I won't be able to find you! I never thought I would meet you here!" He said that, but in his heart he secretly screamed badly, you need to know that Chen Chen has obtained the Tianxuan Sword, after many days of practice, his martial arts will inevitably go to the next level, but on the other hand, he is injured at the moment, and under the siege of the two, although Xue Qingbi may not be able to do it, but he can't take any advantage in the future.
"I haven't seen you for many days, but Mr. Chen's demeanor is still the same!" Guichen looked him up and down for a while, and asked with a smile: "You are not at home to cultivate the newly acquired cheats, why are you here? Chen Chen sneered, his expression was suddenly violent, his feet suddenly moved, and he went straight to the dust, his right hand pulled out the Tianxuan Sword from his waist, and shouted in his mouth: "I'll try you today!"
Guichen saw that his face was not good, and he had already been secretly on guard, and he was not panicked when he attacked at this moment. But it was said that it was inconvenient for Guichen to step down, Chen Chen was sharp again, and he was caught up in the blink of an eye, Chen Chen's horizontal sword was in front, and Tianxuan's sword technique was sent at the opportunity, seeing that the Tianxuan Sword was already three feet in front of him, Guichen's sleeves moved, and the wind and snow Qiankun fan slipped out of his sleeve, which could fall on his hand.
Guichen's eyes were accurate, and seeing the sword qi in Chen Chen's hand rushing straight like a tide, he immediately concentrated on the true qi and went straight up.
"Bang!" A loud bang came, the fan and the sword collided, and the two true qi collided, and suddenly burst out with a huge potential, and a wave of true qi rippled out, spreading straight to the surroundings, and suddenly erupted from the center of the two of them. It turned out that the martial arts of the two were too strong, and the surrounding things couldn't withstand this force under the agitation of their strength, and they exploded layer by layer, and they didn't stop until they were three feet away.
"Huh?" Guichen bore the brunt of the attack, only to feel that his arms were slightly sore, but he was afraid that the opponent's strength would have more than doubled, and it would be stronger than when he was in the keel ground that day.
It turned out that Chen Chen's practice of mixed yuan skills could be integrated with the world's martial arts, and at this moment, he practiced the Tianxuan Sword Technique, although he was not as proficient as the disciples of the Tianshan Sect, but the Heavenly Sword Absolute Sword was in the same lineage, so this internal strength was greatly increased. Guichen held the handle of the fan with his right hand, and swirled the Qiankun fan violently, and his left hand gently put on Chen Chen's right hand holding the sword, using it as a rod, and the body slid straight out of the iron plate bridge, and the Qiankun fan rotated endlessly around the spine of the Tianxuan Sword, and the Guichen man was already on his other side, and then turned over, caught the Qiankun fan, and used the fan as a sword, and pointed out again and again.
Chen Chen saw that Guichen's reaction was sensitive and his movements were extremely fast, and he was already secretly frightened, and at this moment, seeing that his folding fan had been pointed at his back like a sword star, Chen Chen saw that he couldn't dodge, so he had to one side of his body, and the peerless knife behind his back had blocked Guichen's attack like a shield.
"Knorp, Kow, Kow......" Seven rings came in a row, Guichen frowned, his body turned with the momentum, and he slapped it with one palm. After some temptation, Chen Chen knew that he had practiced the Heavenly Mystery Secrets, and the skill of returning to the dust was still not under him, and he was also surprised in his heart.
It turns out that the two of them have their own adventures, and their skills have increased, and they are already fierce rivals in the world at this moment. As soon as Chen Chen's right hand loosened the hilt of the sword, the Tianxuan Sword immediately took off, but the suction in his palm suddenly appeared, and the fortune swirled slightly, and the Tianxuan Sword suddenly rotated endlessly like a winch, turning around, and suddenly forming a void wall composed of sword shadows.
Guichen frowned, although it was late at night, but under the moonlight, there were still bursts of cold light, Guichen hurriedly took two steps back, but he didn't want Chen Chen's left hand to suddenly pull out the peerless knife and slash it down, the knife qi was fierce and domineering, and the bluestone slab on the ground was actually split out of a deep groove by the knife qi, and it came straight towards him. Gui Chen's feet paused, and his figure flashed left and right like a ghost, like a phantom, and he was able to avoid this attack.
"Hey!" Chen Chen couldn't help but say suspiciously: "Your kid has an ankle injury, I'm afraid he has injured his muscles and bones, how can he still be so fast!"
Guichen frowned and said nothing, but he was reminiscing about what had just happened, it turned out that Chen Chen's sword was used together, and suddenly a different kind of breath came out, as if there was a feeling of impeccable.
It turned out that the predecessors who made the Tianxuan Sword and the peerless sword were only from ordinary people, but he had to be educated, and in his later years, he created this pair of swords according to the principles of Taoism and Heavenly Dao, and created such peerless magic skills, because the swords come from the same source, one yin and one yang, one rigid and one soft, the Tianxuan Sword is feminine and fierce, and the peerless sword is masculine and domineering, as if Tai Chi is mutually beneficial.
"Ahh Guichen frowned for a long time and asked, "Mr. Chen, what kind of martial arts is this? It's so powerful! I can't even stop my body-protecting true qi." β
The lights around gradually turned up, and the movement of the two people also attracted the watchman, who was probably afraid, and only dared to observe silently from a distance, not daring to approach the three.
This small street was also very lively for a while, Chen Chen said with a smile: "Don't you understand? The three points of the world are in my hands, and now I have practiced the Heavenly Sword and the Absolute Sword, and today I just want to try my hand with you! It seems that it is similar to your Taiyi Heart Sutra Fruit!"
"Hey!" Guichen turned his head when he heard this, and said angrily to Xue Qingbi: "I obviously gave you the secret book, why did you give it away?
Chen Chen snorted coldly and said, "Stinky boy, don't sow discord, Brother Xue will share the cheats with me, I will naturally not treat him badly, and I will also take out the cheats of the Tianxuan Sword!"
"Bang! Bang!" Guichen was slightly stunned, then applauded for a while, slowly gathered his momentum and stood up, only to see him carrying his hands behind his back and saying: "The predecessor is really open-minded, it is really powerful! He paused, and then said: "It's a pity that there is only one Heavenly Xuan Sword here, otherwise you are all invincible peerless masters in the world!"
Xue Qingbi laughed when she heard this, pointed at him and said with a smile: "You stinky boy, you are really a scoundrel! I have Long Yuan, supplemented by the Liuyun Sword, and the Supreme Sword Mang, the combination of the two swords is enough to be proud of the world, so why do I need the Tianxuan Sword?"
The night breeze was cool, blowing gently, Guichen's eyebrows were slightly raised, and then he flicked his sleeves and said with a smile: "It seems that Guichen is not knowledgeable! I thought that with the Five Elements Transformation Technique, I could run rampant in the world, but I didn't expect that there were many masters in the world, and the two seniors could easily stop me." β
Xue Qingbi seemed to be worried, and sneered: "Stinky boy, you just rely on the Taiyi Heart Sutra taught to you by your father, and you don't have much self-created martial arts at all, so you can't run rampant in Nanjing if you get his true inheritance, understand?"
"Self-created martial arts?oops! No wonder he ......" Guichen was distracted when he heard this, and only muttered to himself: "It turns out ...... That's right!" But said that just when he was out of his mind, Chen Chen suddenly made a move, his body was forward, and he came to Guichen's body in the blink of an eye, only to see his right hand turn the peerless knife, and smashed it into Guichen's chest with the blade, Guichen only felt a flower in front of him, and couldn't help but stare at the eyes, and finally saw the situation at this time, but he didn't have time to change his mind and was hit hard, only to feel a pain in his internal organs, and finally came back to his senses at this time, but saw Chen Chen mercilessly, and his feet turned behind Guichen, and his five fingers were like flying, and the peerless knife flipped uncertainly, and it was another blow to smash down.
It turned out that Chen Chen knew that Guichen's body was really strong, and he was afraid that he would not be able to knock him down easily, so he hit him twice in a row, not to kill, but to seriously injure him. Chen Chen saw that Guichen couldn't be forced, so he flew forward, hurriedly reversed the sword, and connected the points with the hilt of the sword. Although Guichen wanted to fight back, Xue Qingbi in front had already come to his way, a palm had been slapped to his chest, and Chen Chen in the back pursued him, Guichen wanted to fight back, but he felt that his limbs and bones were about to fall apart, and he wanted to raise his true qi but couldn't.
said that Guichen's body was suddenly hit hard, his chest was like a huge impact, and he was sealed by Chen Chen in a row in more than ten big points, and his body could no longer move.
"Wow! poof!" Guichen only felt that his five internal organs were burning, and his meridians were shocking, and then the fishy smell in his mouth became heavier, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, he coughed for a while, and finally felt better, and couldn't help laughing miserably: "Okay!
Xue Qingbi and Chen Chen glanced at each other, and couldn't help but secretly feel ashamed for a while, both of them were the top masters in the world, but with one after the other, they made Guichen seriously injured and captured, and if they said it, they were afraid that it would be embarrassing.
A dark cloud passed from the sky, the moonlight was faint, and the swaying branches on both sides set off the unpredictability of people's hearts. Chen Chen took a deep breath, and when the sword was still sheathed, he clapped his palms, and a team of people rushed over from not far away, and everyone saw Chen Chen and bowed together. Guichen looked at them, but saw that everyone was dressed in black and veiled, showing no face at all, or hanging a long sword at his waist and carrying a strong bow, looking like he was a bit of a hard hand, but it was somewhat similar to the black armor army in Happy City.
Chen Chen waved his hand and said, "Put him at the bottom of the prison, and you can't contact anyone, but you can't wronged him." The black-clothed man didn't say a word, just bowed, Guichen snorted coldly, and was about to sneer a few words before he was carried away.
Xue Qingbi walked to Chen Chen's side, stood side by side with him, and said with a slightly sad face: "It seems that you and I still need to cultivate for a while, otherwise I am afraid that the odds of victory are not great!" Chen Chen nodded and sighed: "Brother Xue, if you weren't willing to share the secret book with me, I'm afraid I wouldn't be Guichen's opponent! Yan Ning also reminded me that there might be a panacea in the treasure house, but unfortunately I was only interested in seeking the sword, and I never thought that I would suffer such a big loss. β
Chen Chen suddenly flicked his sleeves and said casually: "Actually, Brother Xue doesn't have to be like this, now we have another trump card in our hands, and we are not afraid that the wind will not give in! It's just that I need to retreat again in the past few days, and the dust will be handed over to you." β
"Okay!" Xue Qingbi nodded expressionlessly and said, "You can rest assured that you will retreat, and on the day you leave the customs, I will definitely hand him over to you intact." Chen Chen arched his hand and said: "Thank you so much! Then I'll go back first!" Xue Qingbi replied with a smile: "Forgive Xue for not far away!" Chen Chen nodded slightly and turned to leave, Xue Qingbi stared at his slowly departing figure in a daze, under the moonlight, a pair of eyes shone with a stunning cold light.
