Chapter 40: The Battle of the Long Street
The swordsman shouted, "Break it for me!" The figure in the air suddenly froze, and the sword in his hand did not change, and he slashed towards Ouyang Xiu. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
There was a sudden burst of light in mid-air, and even illuminated the dark night sky, and a cyan arc of light flashed out of thin air, at this time, Zhou Ning saw the appearance of the swordsman clearly, with a blue-faced and fanged demon mask on his face, a little eerie and terrifying, and at this moment, his hair was flying wildly, adding a bit of solemnity.
The cyan sword light carried Xiao Xiao's fierce wind whistling down, and the whip-wielding emperor had already swung the whip in his hand with all his might, but only a few sparks flashed, and he was shocked by the sword light, and fell back, with a trace of blood overflowing from the corner of his mouth. The Emperor who fell to the ground gritted his teeth, took out a pyrotechnic arrow from his bosom, and released it.
Du 13 whispered in Zhou Ning's ear: "This is the fireworks order of the Beifu army to arrest the murderer, the Beifu military order prohibits, the invasion is like fire, I am afraid that it will come in a flash, this thief will miss a blow, if he doesn't leave, I am afraid that he will be planted here." ā
Zhou Ning nodded slowly, he had also heard of the prestige of the Beifu Army in later generations, it was an army founded by Xie Xuan during the Eastern Jin Dynasty, when Yangzhou and Runzhou were inhabited by a large number of displaced people who fled the war in the north, Xie Xuan recruited these people, and selected warriors such as Liu Gaozhi, Liu Yu, etc., among these people, and established an army. I didn't think that there was also the existence of the Beifu Army in this world.
ā¦ā¦
I saw the ice chips splashing, and the ice wall condensed by Ouyang Xiu's mouth and Huazhang was slashed into by this imposing cyan knife in a blink of an eye, and it was suddenly broken in half, and the knife momentum was slightly slow. Ouyang Xiu had no joy or sorrow on his face, and said unhurriedly: "There is a lot of money in the sleeves, and the sun and the moon are long in the pot." ā
With a flick of his sleeves, a purple light appeared out of thin air, and the cyan sword was swept away by the sleeve of his robe, slashing obliquely to the side.
Du Shisan said coldly on the side: "What do you say, 'There is a lot of money in your sleeves, and the sun and moon are long in the pot.'" I think it's more appropriate to 'have a lot of money in your sleeves, and the boudoir is as tolerant as possible'. ā
Rao is atmosphere is very tense at the moment, Zhou Ning couldn't help laughing, Du Shisan's mouth is very bad, he has heard that Ouyang Xiu's private morality is at a loss, and he was attacked for having an affair with his niece Zhang, although it is not necessarily true, but in Yangzhou, he often lingers in the Qinlou Chu Pavilion - the boudoir resentful woman is tolerant, this sentence contains a pun, but it is really very appropriate.
A gust of autumn wind blew from the other side of the long street, and the swordsman dressed in black lowered his blade and rushed over again. It had just rained, and the night breeze was cool and wet, blowing his clothes, and his figure was a little thin, not at all like an assassin who killed one person in ten steps.
Just in the blink of an eye, his figure was already approaching, and after gathering his strength slightly, the blue light on the knife flashed, and on the narrow and slender blade, even the thunder light could be faintly seen.
The sword wind was whistling, mixed with crackling thunder, and the power was very amazing.
"Five tones are prepared, and eight changes are given. The arrest is unbridled and the heart is detached. Ouyang Xiu quickly chanted a piece of music, his hand naturally downward, his fingertips drooped, and his palm turned outward, instantly forming more than a dozen incomparably mysterious handprints, only to see eight icicles suddenly appear like ground thorns, and the front one of them happened to stop in front of the swordsman.
The swordsman's galloping steps were stuck, the first icicle was stuck, and he almost collided, and he leaped over the icicle with momentum, and at this time, the second, third, and fourth icicles rose one after another, lifting him high into the air.
In the face of this astonishing change, the swordsman did not lose his balance in mid-air, like a swallow whirling, lightly turned his head, suddenly jumped on the icicle, stepped lightly, and suddenly flew up, it was like stepping on the balance beam, ran over on the uneven icicle, stepped down along the icicle, and then spread his body and flew up, and the cyan knife appeared again.
"Ouyang Xiu, you will die here today."
The swordsman's accent was strange, as if it had a thick nasal tone.
"Is that you?"
"It's ...... me"
After a brainless conversation, the knife man's knife has been accumulating for a long time, like a thunderstorm in summer, rushing towards him.
Ouyang Xiu's forehead was also slightly oozing with sweat, and the handprints were turned electronically, and the eight icicles were suddenly recovered and gathered in front of him.
"Sonorous!"
The sound of the clash of gold and iron resounded through the long street, the long knife swung by the swordsman was smashed open by the icicle, Ouyang Xiu once again formed a mysterious handprint, and groaned with a solemn face: "The sound of the phoenix flute moves, the light of the jade pot turns, and the fish and dragon dance all night......"
When he finished reading the verse, a fire dragon appeared very suddenly, with a momentum that seemed to burn everything, and rushed over with a head and tail.
Is this the battle between top Confucian cultivators and top martial cultivators?
Zhou Ning almost stared out when he saw it, and Du Shisan also high-fived and praised angrily: "Ouyang Yongshu is worthy of the top Confucian, and he can turn Xin You'an's graceful "Qingyu Case" into a war poem, this kind of talent is not far from those half-saints......"
The fire dragon broke through the sword light of the swordsman's defense, and he stepped back slightly, his toes hooking the long whip dropped by the emperor on the ground, and the long whip circled and flew towards the fire dragon. Immediately after, the sound of horses' hooves roared in the distance.
"It's the Beifu Army here!" Du Mu said in a low voice.
The firelight burst into flames, the horse's hooves flew over, and more than twenty horsemen swept over like a wind and clouds, and rushed over, through the firelight, Zhou Ning could already see that the swordsman frowned slightly, lightly touched the ground, and flew in mid-air.
"Shoot the arrows!" A bearded officer at the head shouted loudly.
Suddenly, the arrows rained down, shooting into the air.
The figure of the swordsman didn't seem to be focused, like a flying paper kite, flying diagonally, and in mid-air, he slashed out an extremely amazing knife.
On the side of the long street, the tall fang building of Lu Yijian's mansion was cut down with a knife, and suddenly the gravel was sprinkled like a pearl falling on a jade plate, and everyone present suddenly lost their goal.
The sword light was inexhaustible, only a few tragic neighing of war horses were heard, and several galloping war horses had their front legs cut off in the high speed and tumbled on the road.
Through the chaos, the figure of the swordsman folded in the air like a ghost, and the sparse rain of arrows could not hurt him at all, and it flashed to the carriage where the two of them were, and then, Zhou Ning only felt a slight sinking on the top of his head, thinking that he was borrowed by the swordsman on the top of the carriage and escaped safely.
"The subordinates are one step late, please atone for the sins."
The bearded officer glanced at the carriage, saluted, and said respectfully.
"It's okay, the assassin can't hurt me." Ouyang Xiu's face sank like water, stood for a long time, and said lightly. "Double patrols these days, be careful. In addition, when he sent someone to Jingkou to ask for help, he said that the 'demon marquis' Lu Xun was here. ā
"Yes." The bearded officer was stunned for a moment, and replied in a loud voice.
Du 13 said in surprise: "It turns out that that guy is Sun En's disciple 'Demon Marquis' Lu Xun?" No wonder the sword technique and light skills are so good, it seems that the rumor that the Heavenly Master Dao is fully supporting Xiang Yu must be true. ā
At this moment, Ouyang Xiu walked towards the two with a smile.
"Little Brother Du, hey, this is Little Brother Zhou? Presumably, the two of you are going to participate in the Zhiyuan Cultural Meeting, I wonder if you can take me on a ride? ā
The tone is modest, not at all like a three-rank master who holds a lot of power.
Although Zhou Ning had a bit of a prejudice against Ouyang Xiu, he couldn't help but be bent by his bearing.
