Zhao Zhen walked out of the imperial study, stood in the courtyard, raised his face, and watched the eye-catching crack in the air shatter into ice slag and fall.

Not only Zhao Zhen is watching, but the people of Kaifeng City are also watching, and everyone has only one thought at this time - why is the sky cracking? Is it some kind of damnation?

However...... With a long roar from the sea dragon hovering in mid-air, a black figure sprang out of the crack...... In the clear blue and cloudless sky, two figures, one red and one white, chased the black shadow at the same time.

Zhao Zhen looked up at it for a while and then turned around, looking at Nangong, who had been bandaged by Gongsun and was standing behind him looking at the sky.

As an emperor, he has been recruiting talents all his life, hoping that people can work for him. The so-called selling of life is based on the premise of buying life...... However, human life cannot and should not be bought and sold, so it is absurd to think that someone will die for you.

So what is it that makes someone willing to give their life for you? It's difficult for even ordinary people, let alone a martial artist with unique skills, or a high-minded knight?

Zhao Zhen withdrew his gaze from Nangong - Nangong Ji would die for him, in addition to his duties, but also because of the love they had been together for decades. Human life is really expensive, and more than 20 years of deep affection can be exchanged for going to the soup and forgetting death. So what a stupid thing it is to try to use fame and fortune to buy a proud Jianghu person.

The figures of Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were already out of Zhao Zhen's line of sight, and many guards who knew kung fu went up to the roof to continue looking.

Zhao Zhen looked at the sky - what exactly is the pursuit of martial arts practitioners? Especially masters like Zhanzhao and Baiyutang, or saints like Tianzun and Yin Hou, what are they pursuing?

Zhao Zhen became very interested in martial arts because he knew Tianzun and Yin Hou, and because he was curious that they could teach people like Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang. After listening to a lot of stories about the rivers and lakes, he asked Nangong Ji, like Yin Hou and Tianzun, who have experienced so much pain and borne so many debts, do they still have any pursuits?

Nangong couldn't answer, but Ge Qing gave him an answer.

This little apprentice of the Tianshan faction told him that Tianzun once wrote a sentence on the sky-breaking stone at the top of the Tianshan Mountain, which was also the only admonition he gave to the Tianshan faction, "Those who practice martial arts will die in their bodies, but if their hearts are in and their hearts are dead, their will will last forever." ”

It is said that Xiao Geqing recites this sentence every night when he sleeps and talks in his sleep, and Zhao Zhen also gave up the idea of recruiting people from the rivers and lakes when he heard this sentence......

It's like Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang saved his life and captured that assassin today, what they pursued and defended was something that belonged to them, and it had nothing to do with imperial power, fame and fortune.

……

The black figure fled quickly in the direction of the outside of the Imperial City.

Zhanzhao and Hakukudo catch up in a different way. Zhan Zhao was like a harrier eagle skimming through the air, and Bai Yutang was almost clinging to the roof of Kaifeng City like a shadow wandering on the wall, and the speed of the two was obviously faster than the black shadow, so they chased closer and closer.

Many of the people of Kaifeng City fell on their backs because they looked up at them.

Many people realized that this was another master, so they ran out of the city to see the fight.

Zhao Pu's group of shadow guards also followed, but it was too difficult for everyone's light skills to follow the two in front of them.

Ziying chased all the way, and said to Ochre Shadow beside him, "Zhan Zhao is really not a person, this kind of light work is completely unreasonable!" ”

Ochre Shadow also struggled to follow, and the black and white shadows were not much better, and almost fell off the roof several times. The two of them are with Bai Yutang, if Zhanzhao's swallow flying is mysterious, then the relative shadow is the most ordinary light power plus the fastest speed and the purest internal force...... Those who don't have that ability want to catch up, and then they tripped over themselves with their own feet.

In the end, several shadow guards gave up and stopped to catch their breath before chasing.

At this time, I saw that Zhan Zhao had jumped in front of the man in black, standing on a high flagpole on the top of the city gate, the man in black stopped on the roof in front of the city wall, and saw that the way ahead had been blocked by Zhan Zhao, so he turned back.

But Bai Yutang had already stood on the roof not far behind him, blocking the way back.

The man in black didn't seem to want to fight the two, and turned around and wanted to walk on the left, but on the city wall on the left, a red figure appeared. Lin Yehuo was at the gate of the city just now, and he had been waiting for a long time.

The man in black took another step to the right, and a black figure appeared on a spire on the right.

All the shadow guards stuck out their tongues - when did Zhao Pu arrive?

Just when the man in black was trapped on the roof, the four gates of the Kaifeng City Gate under Zhanzhao's feet opened, and a large number of Imperial City troops poured in from outside the city gate.

Outside the gate of Kaifeng City, Ouyang Shaozheng carried his ice iron rod and walked in, "Which one touched my head on the first day Lao Tzu took office?!" “

He threw his iron rod to the ground, and the ground trembled.

The fire qilin raised his face and looked at the man in black, and laughed, "Just you?" ”

The man in black stood still and glanced at Ouyang Shaozheng.

Ouyang Le was happy and pointed around, "You can pick one yourself." ”

Everyone understood what Ouyang Shaozheng meant, not to fight more or less, there are so many masters here, let him pick one by himself.

At this time, everyone saw the true face of this man in black hiding in the "sky".

This person is not simply dressed in black, outside the black clothes, there is also a "cage". The so-called cage is armor made of ferrous metal. This set of armor is very strange, as if it is a human bone, and it is like a human body, and it seems to be wrapped in several large black spiders. The man's face was covered in bandages, so he couldn't see what he looked like, and he also wore a black hood with a horizontal texture, so it felt like the whole person was being locked in a black iron cage in the shape of a human.

When the man heard Ouyang Shaozheng's words, he raised his head, stood up straight, and glanced around.

This person's height is probably about the same as Zhanzhao Baiyutang, and his age should be about the same in terms of body shape, his internal strength is very high, and his martial arts are very evil.

On the roof in the distance, Yin Hou and Tianzun were watching, and they saw a ladder appear near the eaves, and Gongsun climbed up.

The fourth son, who had already been resisted by Xiao Liangzi, dragged his father.

Gongsun went up to the roof and asked, "How is it?" ”

"I haven't started fighting yet." Lu Tian said coldly.

Tianzun dragged Yin Hou, "Guess who he picks?" ”

Yin Hou glanced at Tianzun helplessly, "Did you see that set of armor?" ”

Tianzun smiled and nodded.

Lu Tianhan also frowned, "But the figure is obviously not the Soldier Spider King." ”

"Descendants, right?" Yin Hou asked.

Tianzun sighed, "Oh, sure enough, there are disasters in the country, and a generation of new evils replaces old ones, and the Soldier Spider King himself is a bad species, and the descendants are not like good people." ”

"Soldier Spider King?"

Everyone was chatting, and Zhao Zhen also climbed up the ladder, walked to the roof, looked into the distance, and asked everyone, "Who is he?" Have a grudge against my Zhao royal family? ”

Tianzun glanced at Zhao Zhen, and when he saw that he had a stern expression, he reached out and patted him on the shoulder, "Don't mind, don't mind, there are many people who have grudges against your Zhao royal family, and there is not one more of him." ”

Zhao Zhen sighed helplessly, Tianzun was really true when he said this.

"Look at who he picks, and you can probably know if he is the descendant of the Soldier Spider King." Lu Tian said coldly.

Tianzun and Yin Hou both nodded.

"Will he pick Zhao Pu?" Gongsun was a little nervous, "He doesn't hate the descendants of the Zhao family......"

Zhao Zhen also frowned slightly, there are so many masters in the rivers and lakes, there is no reason for Zhao Pu to fight against the enemy, Zhao Pu is left to fight.

Yin Hou shook his head, "If he is really the queen of the Soldier Spider King, then he can only pick one person......"

Before he finished speaking, he saw that the man in black suddenly pulled out something from behind his back, and saw that it was a short sword.

He stretched out his hand and slashed the short sword in the air and held it up in front of him, and a long sword fell from the bottom of the short sword...... So, in his hand, he held a strange sword, with two ends at the top and two ends, short at the top and long at the bottom, with the hilt in the middle.

The fourth son sat on Gongsun's lap and asked curiously, "What kind of weapon is Daddy?" ”

"Hmm......" Gongsun tilted his head, he walked around the Zhao Pu military camp a lot, and he had seen a lot of weapons, but this was the first time he had seen it. As a layman, Gongsun looked at the weapon in confusion, "Won't this hurt yourself?" ”

Tianzun was amused by Gongsun's words, and said with admiration, "This weapon is also the Soldier Spider King's, a two-life sword." ”

"Two Life Sword ......" Gongsun read it again, and was about to ask what the origin of this weapon was......

"Daddy, look." Xiao Sizi suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed ahead.

Gongsun looked in the direction of his finger, and saw the man in black holding a sword in his hand, stretching out his hand in one direction, and in front of him was standing on the flagpole of the city tower, Zhanzhao.

Everyone raised their eyebrows - did he mean to provoke Zhao to fight?

Lu Tianhan said in a low voice, "It seems that it is really right." ”

Yin Hou and Tianzun both nodded.

Gongsun was puzzled, "Why did he pick Zhan Zhao to go alone?" ”

"Even if the descendants of the Soldier Spider King want to die, they will definitely be on a par with Zhanzhao before they die." Tianzun said, "Because back then, the Soldier Spider King was defeated by the old ghost of Yin Hou. If he had won back then, the name of the world's number one demon would have been his. ”

Gongsun was surprised when he heard this, "Is anyone robbing this kind of name?" ”

The corners of Yin Hou's mouth twitched, "It seems that someone is rare with this head." ”

Tianzun couldn't help but smile and asked Yin Hou, "Have you told your cat cub about the method of dealing with the two-life sword?" ”

Yin Hou shrugged his shoulders, in fact, everyone also guessed that with Yin Hou's character, it was impossible to sue Sù Zhanzhao for such a thing.

"But the Soldier Spider King may not have told future generations about the experience of fighting you back then." Lu Tianhan looked at Yin Hou, "That kid has mastered so many internal forces, it can be seen that he is prepared." ”

"So what." Yin Hou said indifferently, "Didn't I be unprepared when I beat him back then?" ”

Yin Hou hugged his arms and nodded, "It's the same" and then reminded Yin Hou, "This doesn't seem to be a son, right?" He's been dead for some years, and he's probably a grandchild like your kitten. ”

Yin Hou nodded.

……

At this time, everyone in the confrontation also saw the choice made by the man in black, and they were all puzzled.

In fact, Zhanzhao, Bai Yutang, Zhao Pu, and Lin Yehuo, none of them are easy to deal with.

Everyone knew that this person had a grudge against the Zhao royal family, so they all felt that he might find Zhao Pu to fight alone.

Zhao Pu hadn't fought for a long time, and this time he wanted to fight with great interest. In addition, this kid almost succeeded in his assassination just now and injured Nangong Ji. Although he and Nangong are not as brothers as Ouyang, they are also good brothers who grew up together, this kid is too insidious Zhao Pu looked at him very unpleasantly.

But Zhao Pu even carried the new pavilion marquis on his shoulders, but that kid chose Zhan Zhao to fight alone.

The Nine Princes said in their hearts--Yes! When Zhanzhao finishes beating the scum, there is no slag left, how can he still enjoy himself?

Many shadow guards on the side breathed a sigh of relief, Zhao Pu had never lost the fight, but he couldn't afford it, so it was better for Zhanzhao to solve the weirdo.

Lin Yehuo squatted on the opposite city tower, like a puppy, holding his chin with both hands and tilting his head, "Could it be that Zhanzhao looks the most honest?" So he's the one who picks on the face? ”

Under the city wall where he was, Zou Liang leaned against the wall with his arms crossed, and looked at the two people facing each other above - from the skill of Zhan Zhao chasing the man in black and then copying in front of him to block his way, he should know that Zhan Zhao is not easy to deal with.

Bai Yutang stood behind the man in black, and what he noticed was a detail that was different from the others—the posture of the man in black......

When Bai Yutang saw the two-life sword in his hand, he frowned slightly-because he had heard a saying that the two-life sword was the nemesis of the sword. There is a saying that weapons and weapons are mutually reinforcing, and for masters who have practiced to the highest level, the defects in internal force or kung fu can be made up for by the mutual restraint of weapons.

The reason why he noticed this person's standing posture was because Bai Yutang knew Zhanzhao's kung fu better than anyone else. As a person who practices martial arts, Bai Yutang naturally also considered what method it was best to take when fighting Zhanzhao. As a person who is close to martial arts, often the surprise of the first move is more important than all. After years of observation of Zhan Zhao, Bai Yutang knew which kind of situation was the most headache for him and the most beneficial to himself when he fought against Zhan Zhao...... It was the standing posture of the man in black in front of him.

So, the fifth master came to the conclusion that no matter who this man in black was, he had already studied Zhanzhao's kung fu and came prepared.

Zhan Zhao was still as gentle and harmless as ever at this time, he looked at the man in black, whether it was his posture, dress, armor on his body and the eye-catching sword of two lives, it did not let Zhan Zhao's eyes stay, and finally, Zhan Zhao looked directly at the eyes between the helmet and the bandage gap of the man in black.

Looking at each other, Zhanzhao asked, "What do you call it?" ”

The man in black spoke, in a low voice, "Bingwu." ”

In the distance, Yin Hou and Tianzun glanced at each other—sure enough.

Zhan Zhao looked at him again, then smiled faintly, handed Juque to his right hand, and held the sword handle in his left hand.

Everyone was stunned, Lin Yehuo touched his chin, "Isn't Zhanzhao a right-handed sword?" ”

Zou Liang was also puzzled.

Zhao Pu leaned on the new pavilion marquis, looked at Bai Yutang, and saw that Bai Yutang was also stunned for a moment, but quickly relaxed.

"Haha......"

In the distance, Tianzun squatted on the roof and clapped his hands, "Sure enough, it's biological!" ”

Zhao Zhen and Gongsun were puzzled, "What's wrong?" ”

Lu Tianhan said, "Back then, Yin Hou was the Soldier Spider King who won with a backhand sword. ”

Gongsun was surprised, "That's ...... Is that okay? ”

Yin Hou smiled, "The so-called nemesis is just to make the other party feel awkward, and the countermeasure is that if you want me to be awkward, I will make you even more awkward." ”

"But...... Wouldn't it be inconvenient to swap left and right hands? Zhao Zhen asked.

"Zhan Zhao is the same as the old ghost, the acupuncture points can be moved, what is it to change hands." Tianzun raised his eyebrows and motioned for everyone to look ahead.

Seeing that Zhan Zhao suddenly raised his head, the murderous aura in his eyes made everyone's hearts "chuckle", and then there was a flash of cold light, and Zhan Zhao actually took out the sword first.

Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows slightly, the thief cat really noticed the posture of the soldiers, and the best way to deal with the preemptive strike is naturally to strike first!

Lu Tianhan shook his head helplessly, Tianzun clapped his hands happily, "It seems!" Even the expression is the same...... Damn, have fun! ”

Yin Hou also sighed a little, saying that Zhanzhao was not like him, but this grandson sometimes acted and even thought about things in the same way as when he was young.

Zhan Zhao's first three moves with the sword made Lin Yehuo's mouth open widely, how awkward it should be, every move is reversed.

Zhao Pu tilted his head and felt that Zhan Zhao even had a reverse posture, how awkward it looked.

Sure enough, Bing Wu was caught off guard by Zhan Zhao, and after taking a few steps back, Zhan Zhao suddenly flashed and kicked unceremoniously......

"Here we go!" The little four clapped their hands!

Xiao Liangzi jumped up, "Zhanzhao is original!" Stomp on the face and feet! ”

Looking at it again, I saw Zhanzhao stepping on Bing Wu's face with one foot, and as soon as the internal force was sent, how far did Bing Wu fly out.

After Bing Wu rolled in the air a few times, he bowed down, stuck his sword into the roof tiles, retreated a few steps, reached a little bottom on one knee, stabilized his body, and then raised his eyes to look at Zhanzhao, his eyes were full of murderous energy, obviously ...... Zhan Zhao's malicious dismount made him angry.

Zhan Zhao put Juque behind his back, smiled at Bing Wu who was kneeling on one knee not far away, and waved his hand, "No courtesy, no courtesy, why did you do such a big gift when you first met." ”

……

Zhao Zhen and Gongsun heard Lu Tianhan couldn't help but let out a "poof", and Tianzun was so happy to pound the roof.

Even Yin Hou opened his mouth wide and looked surprised-because the few provocative words Zhan Zhao said were exactly the same as what he said back then.

As Zhan Zhao's words fell, everyone felt a strong internal force and an extremely strong cold air.

Lin Yehuo held his chin and nodded, "Oh, I can't stand the provocation." ”

Zhao Pu is also curious, what is the purpose of Zhanzhao's preemptive strike but not seeking a quick victory, but provoking the anger of the other party?

"I don't understand." Zhao Zhen turned his face and asked Yin Hou, "What is the purpose of the Zhan guards?" ”

"The purpose is simple......

As soon as Yin Hou finished speaking, everyone felt an unusually powerful internal force attacking, and after colliding with Bingwu's internal strength, the sand and rocks flew away in an instant.

Zhao Pu and Lin Yehuo both looked at Zhanzhao - such a strong internal force.

Yin Hou nodded with satisfaction, "Stimulate the strongest ability of the other party, and then win him, it is called a real win." ”

As soon as Yin Hou's voice fell, he saw Zhan Zhao suddenly stretch his horizontal sword with both hands in front of him, Juque returned to the sheath, pushed forward flatly, and pushed his left hand in front of him, right hand back, and Juque pushed to the position at eye level, and froze.

Everyone was amazed - they hadn't seen Zhanzhao use this swordsmanship.

Xiao Liangzi suddenly jumped up and dragged Yin Hou, "Old man, isn't that the one!" ”

Yin Hou nodded, "It should be ......"

Zhao Zhen and Gongsun asked at the same time, "Which one?" ”

"It's been a long time since I've seen it, the ghost slaying sword known as the world's number one swordsmanship." Tianzun said, suddenly a little curious, turned around and asked Yin Hou, "Didn't you say that you didn't teach him?" ”

Yin Hou crossed his arms and looked ahead, and after a long time, he replied, "I really didn't teach him." ”

Lu Tianhan was taken aback: "Then how could he?" ”

Yin Hou thought for a while and said, "Because it's biological." ”

Everyone looked at Yin Hou.

Yin Hou shrugged his shoulders indifferently, "Anyway, I came up with it myself back then, at his age." After speaking, he smiled, "Let's see which one is more powerful." ”
