Chapter 607: Tong Chou
"Bang ......"
Zhang Yunfan only felt a sore numbness in his right hand holding the black gold ancient knife, and even a slight itch and pain in his palm.
At this time, the blade he swung out had come to an abrupt end at a distance of less than half a meter from his body, and what could stop Zhang Yunfan from striking with all his strength was also a weapon.
It was a short sword that shone with dark red waves in the middle of the night, and the blade was faintly visible in the night, and even one could feel the powerful energy it emanated from the inside out.
The most important thing is the person holding the short sword, under the faint light of the short sword, Zhang Yunfan can barely see a blurred face.
But he was sure that he never knew this person, and he had never even crossed paths with this person before.
The weapons collided, and the smoke and dust under his feet were everywhere, Zhang Yunfan already felt a little struggling, and the other party was no better.
"Who are you?" Zhang Yunfan asked coldly.
The opponent's dark eyes narrowed slightly, and Zhang Yunfan could even feel the murderous aura emanating from the inside out.
"Boy, I didn't expect you to be more capable than I imagined!" The man's voice was vicissitudes, and listening to the voice, Zhang Yunfan could also sense that this person's age was at least about fifty years old.
Of course, most importantly, this person is still an Force.
"I'm asking you!" Zhang Yunfan asked resolutely, "What are your intentions?" β
In fact, before asking this sentence, Zhang Yunfan already had the answer in his heart, since this person can follow him quietly, of course, it is for the jade pendant.
It seems that the person who is staring at Yu Pei is far beyond Zhang Yunfan's imagination.
"Me? Hehe......" the man sneered, "you don't deserve to know my identity, in my opinion, you are a dispensable little character, but they still think that you are the key, this idea is ridiculously naΓ―ve." β
They? Key?
Zhang Yunfan secretly slandered all kinds of fragmented information revealed by this person's words.
Who are they in his mouth? What is the key again? What does this have to do with the whole thing?
"So what is your purpose?" Zhang Yunfan asked again.
The man gasped and just smiled coldly, "You said my purpose?" Of course, this is very simple, it is to make them completely sober up, let them know that they can only rely on themselves for everything, and others are unreliable! The current Xuanmen is simply a group of mentally retarded people who are participating, these people are not worthy of the last honor at all, and only I am worthy of this honor! β
"Xuanmen?" Zhang Yunfan blurted out subconsciously, but he didn't search for anything related to this term in his memory.
"Looks like you still have a lot of kindness?" The man said arrogantly, "But so what! β
Before he finished speaking, this person's body had already moved.
I saw him draw his sword backwards, and in an instant, he rushed to Zhang Yunfan as if out of gravity, and the dark red short sword in his hand was slashed and pressed straight down on Zhang Yunfan.
The speed of the other party's movements made Zhang Yunfan staggered, and the time given to him to react was only a short moment.
The black gold ancient knife suddenly lifted up, holding the handle tightly with both hands, Zhang Yunfan was also tentatively ready to take this powerful blow.
This is really a helpless move, Zhang Yunfan wants to dodge it is too late, so he can only take it in a hurry.
But it is still unknown whether it will be able to take it.
"Bang" was another sharp crashing sound, and the sound was dull and striking.
The strength of the other party was beyond Zhang Yunfan's imagination, after he received this blow, just for a moment, he felt a numbness in his legs, and as soon as the other party exerted another force, he pounced and fell to the ground.
At this time, the opponent's short sword suddenly changed direction and cut straight horizontally, Zhang Yunfan was a little caught off guard, so he had to throw out the black gold ancient knife in his hand with all his might. lest the opponent's short sword hurt him.
This is a helpless means of self-preservation, but without weapons, Zhang Yunfan knows that he has only one way to escape.
As for whether it can run away, of course, there are still two theories.
When the other party saw Zhang Yunfan throwing the knife, he hurriedly subconsciously made an evasive action backwards.
It was also at this moment that Zhang Yunfan seized the opportunity and ran towards the gate of the courtyard......
At this time, Zhang Yunfan was running almost with all his strength, he knew very well what the result would be if he was caught by the other party, not to mention his jade pendant, it is estimated that his life will be explained.
Zhang Yunfan is only eight or nine meters away from the gate of the courtyard, according to his ability, even if he starts, he can rush there in a second, and as long as he runs out of the courtyard, there is an open street outside, he takes advantage of the familiar terrain, and there is a great chance that he will be able to escape.
And Zhang Yunfan is also convinced that the other party will definitely be able to see his intentions.
But even if it's just for a second, the other party doesn't seem to intend to give him this almost.
Zhang Yunfan only felt that he had just moved, a black shadow flashed on his side, and then a short sword with dark red ripples was placed on his shoulder.
"You think you'll be able to run?" The other party actually grinned.
The advantages and disadvantages have been seen, and Zhang Yunfan found that he could no longer run away.
"You've won!" Zhang Yunfan sighed, he was very uncomfortable with this gap in strength.
"Yes! I won, and you still want to gamble and lose? The other party laughed mockingly.
Zhang Yunfan shook his head slightly: "I haven't promised anything to you, I just want to know what you plan to do with me!"
"Haha...... You kid, you're a little self-aware, and I still like you! The other party's figure was still hidden in the darkness, "But you still have to die, I said, I have to use you to wake up those innocent people in the Xuanmen!" β
"Looks like I'm really going to die, right?" Zhang Yunfan's tone revealed extreme frustration, and then he asked in a different tone, "Xuanmen?" Is this an organization? I'm already a dying man, can you not let me go with any questions? Let's talk about it, how about it? I think this Xuanmen seems to be closely related to me, right? β
"Hehe......" The other party sneered, "You kid, don't you give up until now, do you want to trick me?" Or do you think you can live without dying today? Or can you escape? β
Zhang Yunfan also let out a sneer helplessly: "Okay, you can see it, I do have such thoughts, but I think I can escape or not, you should know better!"
The other party seemed to hesitate for a moment, Zhang Yunfan saw the black figure and nodded: "You're right, but since you want to know, then I'll just tell you, in fact, it's not only because you are a dying person, but also I want you to know how ridiculous those people in the Xuanmen are!"
Now that he heard the Xuanmen again, Zhang Yunfan was already very sure that this so-called Xuanmen must be some kind of organization, and it seems to be an extremely powerful organization, otherwise how could there be such a powerful person in front of him?
And from his tone, Zhang Yunfan could also hear that this person was not an absolute authority in Xuanmen, but could only be one of the core members.
"Tell me, what do you want to know?" The other party asked.
Zhang Yunfan thought about it, he wanted to know everything. He seemed to know everything, but he didn't seem to know anything.
It's a heart-wrenching feeling!
"You...... Can you start at the beginning? Zhang Yunfan asked.
Of course, he knew very well that this was not a paid story, even if it was a thousand and one nights, it was a knife to someone else's neck to let someone tell a story.
And the reason why Zhang Yunfan is particularly hanging now is that he is clearly held by someone's knife in his neck, but he still has to let someone come to him!
Do you listen to cross talk when this is a flyover?
Zhang Yunfan's words really amused the other party, but obviously the other party was also very patient, thought about it, and finally nodded: "Okay, for decades, no one has ever heard me talk about these things, I'll tell you everything!"
Zhang Yunfan pointed to a stone table next to the courtyard, and there was a stone bench on each of its four sides: "Go over there and talk about it, I guess your story is quite long!"
The other party who thought he had mastered everything did not reject Zhang Yunfan's kindness, and even Zhang Yunfan felt that the other party's eyes looking at him in the dark had changed.
The two sat down, the short sword was still on Zhang Yunfan's neck, and the other party also spoke: "You know Liu Yin and Feng Chen!"
Zhang Yunfan was a little surprised, but he still nodded, and remained silent.
The other party continued: "My name is Tong Chou!"
Tong Chou...... The name......
Hearing this name a second ago, Zhang Yunfan was still muttering in his heart how could a parent give their children such a name, but the next second, his mind suddenly seemed to be struck by lightning!
Liu Yin, Feng Chen, Tong Chou!
Ugly, Yin, Chen?
Since the other party mentioned these two people, it not only means that he and the other party know each other, but also because there are some special connections between their names.
"You ......" Zhang Yunfan seemed to think of something, but he still couldn't figure it out, and he wanted to ask something, but he didn't know where to start.
"That's right, we're all from the Xuanmen!" Tong Chou said.
I'm rough...... Then you are really miserable, I guess you have twelve handles, one of the ugliest, let you spread.
"Xuanmen is an organization, and our name is named after the twelve earthly branches!" Tong Chou said, "Many years ago, Xuanmen originally had ten heavenly stems and twelve earthly branches! Each represents a family, and each family needs to choose one person to join the Xuanmen! So at that time, Xuanmen had the strongest lineup, twenty-two! β
"And now?" Zhang Yunfan was already keenly aware of Tong Chou's melancholy feeling that was different from the past.
"For more than two thousand years, the Xuanmen has always been a secret and powerful existence, and we have even participated in the decision-making of successive dynasties, and they are happy to have people of extraordinary ability like us join them!" Tong Chou said, "It's just that once upon a time, the Xuanmen seemed to have suddenly evaporated, and this disappeared out of thin air!" After disappearing for three hundred years, it was also the beginning of the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, and the descendants of the Xuanmen families gradually came out and reorganized the Xuanmen! β
"It's not the same as it used to be, isn't it?" Zhang Yunfan asked suddenly.
The other party seemed to hesitate slightly, obviously he didn't like a person who had no advantage in front of him, and spoke to him in this tone.
But it's true!
"Indeed, the Xuanmen has fallen, and for six hundred years, we have not been able to participate in any of the core layers of this country! But ......"
