Chapter 31: An Unexpected Opponent

Wuguan in summer, the heat is unbearable. www.biquge.info The sun scorched the earth, and the wind blew the yellow sand, squinting so much that people couldn't open their eyes. In such a season, it is almost impossible to see people outside, and the inn in Kannai has become the best place for merchants to go in the past. What's more, Liu Piaopiao's inn is still on the main road out of customs, and the business is even better. Han Da's fingers kept moving the abacus, Zhang Er shouted and walked through the lobby, while Liu Piaopiao was still sitting peacefully in the boudoir upstairs, looking out the window from time to time, looking at the days, and looking at the guests coming in and out of the store. Maybe she doesn't know when, she can see Hua Yufei's figure again.

A young man walked into the store, the smell of sweat on his body was so strong that he could smell it all over the lobby, his face was covered in mud, he had an empty water bag hanging from his waist, and his feet were tied with worn straw sandals. Although people who trek outside are inevitably exposed to the wind and sun, it is really rare to be sloppy like this. If it weren't for the iron sword he was carrying in his hand, people would have thought that a beggar had come to beg for water.

But instead of feeling ashamed, the young man shouted loudly as soon as he entered the door: "Little Er, hurry up and eat!" I'm going to have to hurry! Actually, this young man is none other than Lu Xiaozhuo.

Zhang Er covered his nose, picked up a corner seat for Lu Xiaozhuo, casually dusted the table, and said, "Guest officer, please sit here!" Before Lu Xiaozhuo could sit down, Zhang Er hid in the kitchen.

Lu Xiaozhuo sat in the corner coldly, holding chopsticks in his hand, watching Zhang Er busy serving food, but it was not his turn to come up at the table, thinking: "Could it be that this little er forgot me?" So, he shouted again, "Little Er, where's my food?" ”

Zhang Er smiled hypocritically: "Don't worry, the guest officer, it should be soon!" With that, he went back to his own business.

Another moment passed, and the meal still hadn't arrived. Lu Xiaozhuo finally shouted impatiently: "Little Er! Is my food going to be good? ”

Zhang Er responded: "Guest officer, you see, there are so many people in the shop, just a little two, don't I have to come at a table too?" ”

Lu Xiaozhuo pointed to the other dining tables and asked sharply, "I've been here for almost half an hour!" The surrounding tables have changed guests, but I can't eat? Don't you look down on me? ”

But Zhang Er was not only not frightened, but smiled dumbly, pointed to Lu Xiaozhuo, and said: "The guest officer looks at his dress, and he has to ask if the little one can afford it?" ”

Only then did Lu Xiaozhuo know that the shopkeeper was laughing at his ragged clothes, and he couldn't help but jump like thunder. He slammed into his body, his eyes widened, and he shouted: "How can this be reasonable! He slapped the dining table next to him to pieces with one palm.

Seeing this, Han Da figured out that Lu Xiaozhuo should have two strikes, and hurriedly came up to persuade him: "The guest officer is angry!" ”

Zhang Er was not convinced, rolled up his sleeves, and shouted: "Oops! Who are you scaring about? Grandpa, I haven't seen any formations? No matter how fierce you are, can you be as fierce as the white-haired ice demon? ”

Lu Xiaozhuo's nerves were immediately touched. He rushed forward with an arrow step and grabbed Zhang Er's collar. Looking at each other, Lu Xiaozhuo asked sharply, "Have you ever seen a white-haired ice demon?" ”

As soon as Lu Xiaozhuo's momentum came up, Zhang Er's heart was also a little stunned, and he didn't dare to contradict it like just now, but replied honestly: "I've seen it." ”

Lu Xiaozhuo asked, "When?" ”

Zhang Er replied: "Half a month ago." ”

Lu Xiaozhuo asked again: "Where is she now?" ”

Zhang Er replied: "I don't know, I went to the west." ”

Lu Xiaozhuo didn't care about hunger, and he was no longer afraid of wind and sand, so he let go of Zhang Er, pushed open the door, and was about to go out. At this time, a woman's voice came from behind him: "Guest officer, why are you in a hurry to leave?" ”

Lu Xiaozhuo looked back and saw that there was a young woman with thick powder and heavy makeup standing on the railing of the corridor on the second floor, and this young woman was Liu Piaopiao. Lu Xiaozhuo didn't want to pay attention to it, but as soon as his feet took a step forward, three crescent knives "swished" out from behind him and inserted them into the door panel in front of him.

Lu Xiaozhuo immediately pulled out the iron sword in his hand and shouted, "What do you want to do?" ”

In this trouble, all the guests in the hotel were scared away, and they didn't have time to pay for the wine, and Zhang Er and Han Da couldn't stop it. But Liu Piaopiao didn't care, but chuckled and said, "I want to ask you, who are you?" What does the white-haired ice demon want to do? ”

Lu Xiaozhuo replied, "I am Lu Xiaozhuo of the Tianshan Sword Sect. The white-haired ice demon wants to harm my friend, and I must find her as soon as possible. ”

Liu Piaopiao looked at Lu Xiaozhuo and thought, "Could it be that the friend he said is Hua Yufei?" But Hua Yufei is well-dressed and polite; This guy is disheveled and sloppy, how can he get together? What's more, one is in Shu Mountain, and the other is in Tianshan, separated by 108,000 miles, unless ......" she thought again, "it would be easier to believe that he was an accomplice of the white-haired Ice Demon." Liu Piaopiao finally couldn't believe Lu Xiaozhuo, so he said, "Even if you catch up with the white-haired ice demon, what can you do?" Can you beat her? ”

Lu Xiaozhuo is in a hurry, how can he chat more with Liu Piaopiao here? It is only said: "Success or failure, there are days." Then he had to go again.

Liu Piaopiao shouted loudly: "Please stay!" Truth be told, I also have a friend who is dealing with the white-haired Ice Demon. You say, you're the Ice Devil's enemy. It's hard for me to believe it. If you hadn't gone to kill the Ice Demon, but had gone to help her, then I wouldn't have been able to let you out of this inn today! ”

Lu Xiaozhuo was furious and shouted, "What? You say, I'm going to help the white-haired ice demon? ”

Liu Piaopiao said: "It's better to be in vain! Even if you really go to kill the white-haired Ice Demon, you have to pass my level before you can fight the Ice Demon. ”

Lu Xiaozhuo clenched his iron sword and said, "Since this is the case, it seems that it is necessary to fight!" ”

I saw Liu Piaopiao wave his sleeves, and in an instant, a crescent moon knife flew out of his sleeve, and the speed of the shot was like lightning, and when Lu Xiaozhuo felt the air flow of the crescent knife, the tip of the knife was already close to his throat. He subconsciously swung his sword to block. In front of his throat, he heard the sound of metal clashing. The crescent sword was deflected and slashed past his ear, but his sword had barely reached his chest. Looking at the crescent knife again, it was inserted into the wooden pillar behind him, and the blade of the knife was pierced by another flying knife. The appearance of the flying knife was quite similar to the Crescent Knife, but it was not the same. Moreover, Lu Xiaozhuo had seen a flying knife of this shape, and it was in the hotel in Luoyang.

Han Da, Zhang Er, and even Lu Xiaozhuo were dumbfounded, only Liu Piaopiao knew what had just happened. In addition to being surprised, she also showed dissatisfaction on her face, and said to herself, "Is it him? ”

"Oops! What a big sandstorm! "A man broke in from outside the door, dressed in white brocade.

This voice, this dress, and that flying knife, how can Lu Xiaozhuo not recognize it? He couldn't help shouting: "Qin Daxia! ”

It turned out that this person was Qin Yi. When he saw Lu Xiaozhuo, he was also quite surprised, and said, "Lu Shaoxia! Huashan has been farewell for half a year. I didn't expect to meet you here. He turned to Liu Piaopiao again and said, "You! Why always use your crescent knife at every turn? Lu Shaoxia is my friend! ”

Lu Xiaozhuo was even more surprised and asked, "Do you know each other?" ”

Qin Yi said with a smile: "This is my junior sister, called Liu Piaopiao, known as Guanzhong Dominatrix." ”

Of course, Lu Xiaozhuo was surprised, but what surprised him more was Liu Piaopiao. Liu Piaopiao was still skeptical, looked at Lu Xiaozhuo again, and asked, "Then what is the relationship between him and the white-haired ice demon?" ”

This question made Qin Yi also confused: "White-haired ice demon? ”

So, Liu Piaopiao and Lu Xiaozhuo talked about the matter, and then they understood the reason for each other.

Qin Yi laughed again, pointed at Liu Piaopiao, and said, "You are really a 'tigress'!" This time, he almost hurt his own people. ”

Liu Piaopiao felt ashamed, smiled reluctantly, and said, "Misunderstanding! Misunderstand! ”

Lu Xiaozhuo said: "Since I was frozen by the ice demon, I have been able to move for three days and three nights, so I went around to find out the whereabouts of Brother Hua, so I am not in a hurry." ”

Qin Yi asked, "You should be known to be a white-haired ice demon." Even if you find her, what can you do? ”

Lu Xiaozhuo replied calmly: "It is precisely because I know the horror of the Ice Demon Skill that I am more worried about Brother Hua's safety. Even if you can't defeat the ice demon, if you want to do your best, it's a big deal to go to Huangquan with Brother Hua. ”

Liu Piaopiao not only looked at Lu Xiaozhuo with admiration, but also felt excited, and shouted: "Well said!" Han Da, Zhang Er, pack up your things, and we will go to Tubo too! ”

Just when everyone was clamoring to go to Tubo, Qin Yi felt a light and elegant breath, right in this inn. He put away his smile, because this was not the breath of an ordinary martial artist. Qin Yi asked loudly, "Which way is your friend?" Now that you're here, why don't you show up? ”

When everyone heard this, they all looked around, but there was no one to be seen. Suddenly, there was a man standing by the counter. He was dressed in black, his face was expressionless, his eyes were solemn, and he didn't have a weapon on his body, but his steady and deep breath was more oppressive than a weapon.

No one in the inn knew who he was, except for one person, and that was Lu Xiaozhuo. Ever since he saw this man in black, Lu Xiaozhuo's heart has been filled with apprehension. Cold sweat broke down his spine, and his hands trembled. He could never have imagined that this person would be here, this person who was intimidating to him.

Although Qin Yi didn't know this man in black, his expression became relaxed again. He stepped forward and bowed his hand and said, "I see your internal strength is extraordinary. Today's martial arts, those with outstanding internal strength, I know a lot, those who have not met, only two ears: one is the **** sub-period of the sound king; The second is Flying Shadow Ye Feng, I don't know which one of them you are? ”

The man in black replied: "The Lord of the Qin Alliance really has good eyesight, and it is Ye Feng below. ”

"Ye Feng?" Hearing this name, even Liu Piaopiao and others, who were far away in Hanzhong and didn't care about the trivial matters of the Central Plains martial arts, couldn't help but be surprised.

Qin Yi waved his hand and said, "I'm no longer the leader of the Qin Alliance, I'm just an idle cloud and wild crane. I only went to my sister's house to sit down today. But I don't know why Ye Daxia is here? ”

I didn't want Ye Feng to look at Lu Xiaozhuo and replied, "I came this time just to find him." He walked straight to Lu Xiaozhuo, "Now that I've found it, I'll leave!" ”

These words made Lu Xiaozhuo's heart go up and down, and he didn't know what to do.

Qin Yi stretched out his hand and shouted, "Wait! Over the years, Ye Daxia has had many grievances with the Central Plains Martial Arts. A few months ago, it was even more in Tongguan. I also asked Ye Daxia to give an explanation to the people of the world. ”

Ye Feng asked rhetorically: "Since you are no longer the leader of the alliance, why bother with these idle things?" ”

Qin Yi replied: "What Your Excellency has committed is not the business of the alliance leader alone, but the business of the people of the world. ”

Ye Feng was disdainful and said, "What people in the world see is not necessarily the truth. I, Ye Feng, don't need to explain to anyone! ”

Qin Yi said: "Qin can't let you leave today!" ”

Ye Feng suddenly smiled and said, "I want to come and go, and I never let others decide!" ”

The atmosphere of the inn became solemn. Although Liu Piaopiao and the others didn't know the reason very clearly, they could also feel uneasy. Lu Xiaozhuo faced these two masters, and he was only nervous in his heart: "If these two people fight, what will be the result?" ”

This unimaginable scene for Lu Xiaozhuo really staged with Qin Yi's left hand stretched out first. Qin Yi pounced on Ye Feng's left shoulder, and just grabbed it, but was caught by Ye Feng's right hand. Then, Qin Yi's right hand pushed away Ye Feng's right hand again. …… After a few rounds of fighting like this, every move Qin Yi made was taken by Ye Feng; Ye Feng had just taken it, and Qin Yi immediately made another move. Sometimes left, sometimes right, sometimes up, sometimes down, frequent like cicada wings, fast as lightning. Qin Yi couldn't catch Ye Feng, and Ye Feng couldn't get rid of Qin Yi. In the end, the two of them clasped their hands together and struck a blow to temporarily break free from this inextricable situation.

Qin Yi realized that Ye Feng's martial arts really deserved his reputation, and ordinary moves naturally couldn't be captured. But Qin Yi had only used two or three layers of skill, and his world-famous trick had not yet been used. As a result, his right hand flashed a bright meteor knife. Since the day this knife appeared on the rivers and lakes, no one has been able to take it. Even Ye Feng is probably not too sure.

As long as the Meteor Knife strikes, it may be the end of everything. Ye Feng couldn't give Qin Yi a chance to make a move. As soon as the meteor knife was revealed, Qin Yi's wrist was grabbed by Ye Feng. The wrist can't be twisted, and the Meteor Knife can't be thrown. Qin Yi took out his left hand again. Ye Feng hurriedly slapped Qin Yi's left hand again. At this moment, Qin Yi turned the internal force to his right wrist and broke free from Ye Feng. Ye Feng could only be entangled within one step of Qin Yi, so that Qin Yi was overwhelmed and did not give him a chance to throw a knife. So, Qin Yi simply used the meteor knife as a dagger, and slashed sideways, and the blade was in the direction, forcing Ye Feng to retreat.

Finally, Qin Yi had a chance to go out of the knife. He reversed the blade, the hilt outward, and raised his right hand. And what about Ye Feng? It's too late, it's too fast, and while retreating to dodge, an iron sword stretches out from the sleeve of his right hand. This sleeve sword, Ye Feng had used it when he was in Tongguan.

Just before Qin Yi's meteor knife was about to be thrown, Ye Feng preemptively slashed out a sword aura. This sword qi may not be able to resist the meteor sword, but Qin Yi has already comprehended Ye Feng's internal strength, and he doesn't want to end up with the same end, so he still turned around first and dodged the sword qi. When Qin Yi wanted to make another move, he saw Ye Feng's sword body turn, and the iron sword suddenly reflected a dazzling sword light through the sunlight shining in from the window, piercing Qin Yi's eyes.

Qin Yi exclaimed: "Return to the light sword? In fact, he is no stranger to this trick. When he was fighting Hongfu in Huashan before, he had used it himself, but he didn't expect that Ye Feng would actually use this trick. This made him think: "If Ye Feng can also return the light sword, then ...... the source of his martial arts?" ”

At the moment when Qin Yi stretched out his hand to block the sword light, Ye Feng jumped to Lu Xiaozhuo's side with a "whoosh", grabbed Lu Xiaozhuo, and said, "Go!" Then he took Lu Xiaozhuo out of the door.

Qin Yi watched Ye Feng's figure disappear from sight, so he had no choice but to put away the meteor knife, and in the end he didn't make a move.

Liu Piaopiao asked: "Why don't you chase?" ”

Qin Yi said helplessly: "If you can catch up, it won't be Ye Feng." "When Qin Yi was the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance, Ye Feng was his most difficult problem. He originally wanted to take down Ye Feng today and figure it out, but the result was even more confused. In addition, he also found that the light and elegant aura he felt before was not the same as Ye Feng's aura when he was just fighting.

Besides, after Lu Xiaozhuo was taken away from the inn by Ye Feng, he ran all the way to the intersection under Wuguan City. Lu Xiaozhuo panted against the wall, looked at Ye Feng, and said something for a long time: "Why did you appear here?" ”

Ye Feng asked rhetorically, "Are you going to find the white-haired ice demon?" ”

Lu Xiaozhuo nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Ye Feng put his hands behind his back, turned around, and said, "You don't care about this matter. ”

"What?" Lu Xiaozhuo was shocked, he couldn't think of the slightest reason for Ye Feng to say this, "The Shushan faction is kind to me, I can't stand by and watch!" ”。

"You're just going to die." Ye Feng said, "I'll handle this matter." ”

"This ......" Could it be that Ye Feng has also joined the ranks of fighting against the white-haired ice demon? Although Lu Xiaozhuo still didn't understand, it seemed that as long as Ye Feng said it, he had to obey it like an order, and besides, it was much more certain that Ye Feng would come forward than let Lu Xiaozhuo go to death. It's just that Lu Xiaozhuo still can't rest assured that Hua Yufei will go, "Then I'll go with you!" ”

Ye Feng waved his hand and said, "You have a more important task. He pointed in the opposite direction to Wuguan, where there was a pass, and there were four soldiers standing on the pass, and a cart was passing the inspection and pushing it this way, "You can go in this direction, you can go out of the Qinling Mountains, and then go south, to Huguang and Changsha, where there is now the largest sect in the Central Plains - Sanhuamen." Your job is to keep an eye on his every move. ”

"Scattered Flower Gate?" Lu Xiaozhuo should still remember this sect. When he was on Huashan, he witnessed Zhong Liyan, the head of the Sanhua Sect, defeat Qin Yi and become the new leader of the martial arts alliance, and what impressed him even more was Zhong Liyan's penchant for pretending to be a woman. However, why did Ye Feng let Lu Xiaozhuo go thousands of miles to stare at the Sanhua Gate? Lu Xiaozhuo also asked Ye Feng like this.

I only heard Ye Feng reply: "It's about the Xiyue Sword." ”

The Xiyue Sword was originally the treasure of the Tianshan Sword Sect, but it has been missing since Wen Bai's death. It is rumored in the rivers and lakes that this sword was obtained by Ye Feng. As a disciple of Wen Bai, Lu Xiaozhuo's recovery of the Xiyue Sword is certainly within his responsibility. But now that Ye Feng said that the Xiyue Sword is related to the Scattered Flower Gate, where did he start?

Ye Feng didn't want to go into more detail, he only said: "This matter is not clear at present, and you will naturally know in the future." Now, just keep an eye on the scattered flower gate. In half a year, I will go to Changsha to find you. ”

Ye Feng said this, Lu Xiaozhuo knew that he had no choice, so he had to agree, turned around and walked towards the pass. Ye Feng was ready to go out of Wuguan and go to find Leng Qiuxun. Suddenly, he remembered something: when he came before, this pass was not guarded by soldiers.

Ye Feng turned around abruptly and saw that Lu Xiaozhuo had walked to the pass and was interrogated by one of the soldiers. The soldier was searching Lu Xiaozhuo's body from bottom to top, but his fingernails seemed to be a little too long. Looking at their uniforms, they were all new. If it is normal to say that there are new soldiers in the army, how can it be that all the soldiers in a pass are new soldiers? At the same time, Ye Feng also sensed that light and elegant aura. So, he shouted, "Be careful! ”

Just after Ye Feng shouted this, the soldier who searched his body suddenly stabbed his long nails into Lu Xiaozhuo's legs. Fortunately, Lu Xiaozhuo's reaction was quite fast, and after hearing Ye Feng's warning, he subconsciously dodged backwards, allowing the soldier to pierce the air. Lu Xiaozhuo also kicked the soldier down. The other three soldiers drew their swords together and rushed towards Lu Xiaozhuo. Lu Xiaozhuo immediately mingled with them.

Ye Feng was just about to go over to help, but the cart that happened to be pushed next to him turned around and crashed into him. Ye Feng easily jumped over the cart. The driver pulled out a short knife from the board. Ye Feng stepped up with an arrow and grabbed the coachman's hand. This coachman didn't have the same skills as Qin Yi, and he was caught by Ye Feng and lost his strength. Ye Feng twisted the coachman's wrist and stabbed it, the handle of the knife was still in the driver's hand, but the blade had already stabbed into the coachman's chest.

Ye Feng kicked the driver, jumped up, showed his sword in his sleeve, and shouted at Lu Xiaozhuo: "Get out of the way!" ”

Lu Xiaozhuo comprehended, and immediately turned his head a few steps away. Ye Feng then drew out a sword qi that directly split the two soldiers in half from head to toe. Seeing that they were not Ye Feng's opponents, the remaining two soldiers used their hidden weapons together. Ye Feng only swung a few swords, and the hidden weapons were all stuck on the blade of the sword. I saw that the shape of the hidden weapon was strange, with four corners, in a swirl, black, not like the Central Plains secret weapon. The two soldiers took the opportunity to throw two projectiles on the ground, which instantly exploded into a puff of smoke. Ye Feng knew that the two wanted to escape, so he quickly stabbed them with a sword. The sword stabbed one of the soldiers, but strangely, instead of falling, the soldier instantly separated into three or four figures and flew away in different directions, while the other soldier had long since disappeared.

Ye Feng couldn't help but exclaim: "Ninjutsu! ”

Lu Xiaozhuo ran over and asked, "Who are they?" Why are martial arts so weird? ”

Ye Feng looked at the pass in front of him and said, "It seems that our opponent is much more troublesome than imagined. ”
