Chapter 75: A Warning at the Bottom of the Bowl (1)
I've been paying attention to the whole scene, including Takagi who has fallen to the ground, which is also a habit I have developed since I was a child in a turbulent environment. Before the dust settles, we must not let our guard down and beware of unexpected mutations at any node.
Because of this, I noticed a sudden movement of Takagi's shoulders.
Before he could make the next move, I was already rushing forward like the wind.
When anyone wants to attack with their legs, the waist is the first to move, and the force from the waist can bring out the lethality of the legs and feet. Similarly, when attacking with both hands, the shoulder is the first to move, and only by exerting force from the shoulder, through both arms and hands, can the enemy be killed instantly.
I rushed to the fat man's side, and Takagi's killing move exploded, and the sword in his sleeve pierced out, stabbing the fat man's lower abdomen from the bottom up.
This time, Takagi's shot was particularly ruthless, in addition to the sword in the sleeve, there was also a sword in the waist and a sword in the leg, and at the same time stabbed out five soft swords, beckoning to the fat man's abdomen together.
With only two hands, I hastily bent on Takagi's wrists and removed the power of his sword. With the remaining three swords, I could only take the most cumbersome and practical way to deal with them, rolling them well, and crushing them towards Takagi's body.
All soft swords must take the path of light, thin, sharp, and narrow, and take the meaning of "no thick into the room" in the ancient weapon spectrum. Tang Dynasty craftsmen discovered "soft iron" from the underwater iron ore in Burma and Laos, and invented a new type of weapon, the "Burmese Iron Soft Sword", which could be wrapped around the waist and rolled around the limbs, making the enemy defenseless.
Takagi intended to assassinate the fat man, and I only relied on my sixth sense to save people, so I had no room to think about it.
In less than a second, I blocked the five swords that Takagi stabbed before he died. As expected, the sword in his waist and leg pierced me in the abdomen, but the fat man was unharmed.
"Mr. Dragon—" Sang Wanyu came in a cover-up, clasped Takagi's temples with both hands, and somersaulted around, breaking Takagi's neck.
This time, she finally killed the enemy with her own hands and avenged the sword stab.
The fat man took a few steps back, covered his chest with his hands, and his face was colorless.
He was so careless that he almost lay down on the spot.
"Mr. Long, Mr. Long!" Sang Wanyu leaned over, wrapped his arms around my neck, and laid my body flat in place.
"Save people, call the doctor immediately, and rescue ...... urgently" The fat man was also shouting.
I looked up at it, and the two faces of the mulberry fish and the fat man obscured my view. The two of them looked at each other with concern in their eyes.
"Are you...... Woman...... ......I winked at the fat man, my lips twitched, and I barely managed to spit out four words.
In the urgency, the fat man couldn't calm down and disguise, so the anxious eyes had betrayed him.
"Mr. Long, what did you say? I can't hear clearly! Sang Wanyu shouted.
I felt a little dizzy and slowly closed my eyes. In my ears, the calls of the mulberry fish and the fat man became farther and farther away, and finally they could not be heard.
For a moment, my consciousness completely disappeared, and I entered what the ancients called "dark sweet" dreams. I'm so tired that I really want to get a good night's sleep, get a good night's sleep, wake up and get back on the road.
"I had to start searching, like all the people who came to Dunhuang, full of hope, and kept searching until that hope was shattered. This is reincarnation, in the ancient times before that, I don't know how many people have come, searched, failed, left or died, but in the years and years, the murals of the Mogao Grottoes have witnessed the search for hundreds or thousands of generations—what are they looking for? "It dawned on me that the crux of the problem was that everyone didn't know what they were looking for.
For example, I came to Dunhuang from Hong Kong Island only because I had a blurry image of a bouncing pipa in my heart. That picture is in Cave 112 of Mogao Caves, as long as I want, I can go to see it at any time, and I can stay in the cave at any time to trace it. If it's related to what I'm looking for, where do I go next?
I think of Ming Shuisleeve, what she is looking for is more mysterious than what those of us contemporaries are looking for. She has to find a place to come from, to find her historical self.
"What we are looking for may still be in the world; What Ming Shuisleeve is looking for is outside time and space, in unimaginable and unbelievable places! I couldn't help but smile bitterly, "I wonder what Gu Qingcheng will think?" How to help Ming Shuisleeve fulfill his wishes? ”
When I thought of Gu Qingcheng, there was slowly warmth in my cold body.
Two people who have met tens of thousands of times on Hong Kong Island but have not met, and now meet in Dunhuang for special reasons, this is probably the fate in the dark, right? If you don't cherish it, won't you live up to the will of God?
I struggled, my hands in the air, as if to tear through the curtain of darkness, desperate to wake up from my slumber. Gu Qingcheng fell into the anti-thief pit, waiting for my help, how could I sit idly by?
"Don't move, watch out for the needle." Someone whispered to my left, it was the voice of the fat man.
I turned my head toward where the voice had come from, my eyes struggling to open a slit.
"Don't move, let's sleep again, finish this bottle of medicine." The fat man said again.
I tugged at the corners of my mouth to make a joke on him, because I was now convinced that he was a woman.
"Don't move, it's safe by my side, don't worry. Thank you for saving me, and I will definitely repay this favor in the future. The fat man whispered.
I opened my mouth with difficulty: "Anti-thief...... Anti-thief pit...... Gu, Gu ......"
The fat man immediately replied: "The anti-thief pit is safe and sound, Miss Sang who is with you has already rushed over with my people, if you find something, you must control the situation first and make sure that all your friends are safe and sound." ”
I breathed a sigh of relief and closed my eyes heavily.
Sang Wanyu also owes me a favor, she brought the Japanese ninja over, she should be able to suppress the gang characters in the area of the anti-thief pit and rescue Gu Qingcheng safely.
The Xinyue Directionless Faction and the Yellow Flower Society are both top gangs that are unique in the rivers and lakes for a while, and the two gangs join forces, which other force can form an obstacle?
"Why did you give your life to save me?" After a while, the fat man asked faintly.
I actually didn't have any reason to save him, after all, under the circumstances at that time, Sang Wanyu and I were prisoners, and the most reasonable thing to do was to hope that there would be chaos within the Xinyue Wuxiang faction, and then we would take advantage of the chaos to get out of trouble.
"There has never been a person like you, who sacrificed his life to feed my sword for me. Although I have been in battle for a long time, I was still stunned by the excessive shock when I saw Takagi's sword in the waist and the sword in the leg piercing your lower abdomen. Since I was a child, I have been repeatedly warned by my division commander not to trust others, to protect myself in the face of war, and to destroy heaven and earth if people do not do it for themselves. I had fantasized that if someone came to my aid when I was in danger, whether I succeeded or not, I would give him the rest of my life, and I would never break my ......word," the fat man muttered to himself.
After the disguise, he is a lewd fat man, with this dignity, even if he wants to commit himself to others, it is a luxury, after all, this is an era when everyone looks at their faces.
I shook my head tiredly: "No, I just don't want to have one less wise man in the world." There are so many mysteries in the world, and it is up to the wise to find the answers, and you have created these murals and glasses, which shows that you are superior in wisdom. Saving you is at least a great contribution to the future of humanity. ”
There is no reason to speak of the decisions made by the Sixth Sense, let alone a scrutiny.
When I came forward, I didn't think about the interests of the enemy or the enemy, the rights and wrongs of both sides, and it was a completely natural reaction.
If this matter is known to Lei Dongtian, he will definitely blame me for saving the enemy's main general, and he will definitely add a big enemy to our side, and make the big mistake of rebelling and collaborating with the enemy.
Lei Dongtian's kind of gangsters must accurately calculate things, and the advantages outweigh the disadvantages; The harm outweighs the good, stop.
I know that the only difference between myself and Lei Dongtian is that I believe in inspiration rather than experience on some key issues.
This time, I saved the fat man, even if I was killed because of this, I don't regret it.
"I owe you a life, anytime, as long as you want, I can take this life at any time." The fat man's tone became extremely serious, without a hint of a smile.
"Alright, it's all over." I replied with my eyes closed.
"Okay, you sleep, I will guard you until you are completely out of danger." The fat man said.
I lay quietly for a while, but I couldn't sleep, I could only close my eyes and recuperate.
The wound on his lower abdomen was aching, and his crotch and waist were almost unconscious from being inflated with bandages. In this embarrassment, even the soft mattress under my body became pimples, which made my back hurt.
"Is there anything to eat?" I opened my eyes and looked at the fat man.
The fat man smiled: "The doctor said that you can drink a small amount of soup, and I have already ordered someone to prepare it, just waiting for you to speak." ”
The fat man clapped his hands, and someone came in with a tray with a bowl of white porridge on it.
I sat up stiffly, and the fat man took the bowl, picked up the spoon, and wanted to feed me porridge.
"I'd better do it myself." I immediately excused myself.
"You block the sword for me, and I will do a little thing for you to feel a little more at ease." The fat man said.
I didn't refrain any longer, it was best to let things run as they should.
The bowl of porridge is filled with herbs such as astragalus and American ginseng, which has a unique taste and is very delicious.
I adjusted my breathing, straightened my spirit, jumped out of the trivial things such as the identity of the fat man and the death of Gao Mu, and refocused my attention on important events such as the anti-thief pit chaos, the murals of the Mogao Grottoes, and the rebound pipa dance.
"Don't worry too much about things outside, my people are very down-to-earth, Miss Sang is very capable, and the two sides together will definitely get twice the result with half the effort." Perhaps, by the time you finish drinking this bowl of porridge, they will already come back with your friend Gu Qingcheng. The fat man said.
His eyes were so sharp that he could see what I was thinking, even when I didn't speak.
"That's the best, I don't want to kill in vain, and I don't want my friends to have an accident." I nodded.
The fat man laughed twice and continued: "Mr. Long, I know a little about your friend Gu Qingcheng, do you think she is a weak woman who is powerless?" On the contrary, in my opinion, the gang characters in the area of the anti-thief pit can't trap her at all. Now that she's missing, the only possibility is that she's willingly letting herself disappear in order to track down something more important, and the 'disappearance' is a last resort, and there is absolutely no danger to her life. This time, it was not the sheep who fell into the tiger's mouth, but the gang characters in some small places did not have long eyes and bumped into the muzzle of the master's gun. ”
Hearing the fat man say this, my mind also settled.
The hero sees the same thing, and so does my opinion of Gu Qingcheng.
Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if she and Sikong Xingxing fall at the same time, the ultimate goal of the gang characters is just to extort money, and it is impossible to tear up tickets and kill people for no reason.
Now, time is the biggest enemy, and I hope that Sang Wanyu can realize this, no longer delay a minute and a second, and fly to the anti-thief pit to solve all the troubles.
"Well, hearing what Your Excellency said is my heart's content." I say.
