Chapter 13: The Stars
At the beginning of the lanterns, Digi is extremely prosperous and lively. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoDigi is located in the middle of the world, and has been the center of the worship of the four Yi since the ancient Wa Dynasty.
In the Imperial Palace, there are merchants, envoys, and scholars from all over the world. I hope that I can show my hands and feet in this center of the four seas.
Xuanbu took Xuanjing and walked slowly on the street, full of the prosperity of Diji. Xuan Jing followed behind his father, keeping his head down and just walking, but not saying a word. Thinking about the events of these days. Huiqin, her father, and the old man at the bottom of the lake, they all have their own secrets, and these secrets have nothing to do with them in the first place. But now everyone's secrets are closely related to themselves, and they are a little overwhelmed.
Xuan Jing didn't want to think about those things that he couldn't understand, so he changed his mind and carefully recalled his father's 'true words' just now. This mantra is extremely difficult to read, but my father must recite it proficiently, and I don't know what the purpose is.
Xuanbu walked through three avenues before stopping in front of a small shop in an alley. Xuan Jing felt a little strange in his heart, there were some luxurious restaurants in Diji, and his father was in a high position, so how could he bring himself to this street shop.
Just as he was hesitating, Xuanbu had already opened the curtain and entered the store, and Xuanbu saw it and hurriedly followed his father in. I saw that there were five or six tables in this shop, with long wooden chairs, although they were shabby, but fortunately they were neat and clean.
There were no other customers in the shop, and there were no guys. Xuan Buyou sighed, and a middle-aged man in his thirties came out of the back hall, and it seemed that he was the shopkeeper.
The man smiled, "Brother Bu, you're here!" How many people are there today? ”
"We two, you look at the arrangement." Xuanbu said casually.
The shopkeeper answered, turned his head and entered the inner hall, and after a while, he walked out quickly, and there was a big teapot in his hand. Set the tea bowl on the table, and give Xuanbu and Master Zi a bowl of red hot tea each, "You two drink tea first, and the meal will be ready immediately!" The shopkeeper left the big teapot on the table and went to the back hall to stir-fry.
"Jing'er, you taste this big bowl of tea, it has a different flavor."
Xuan Jing heard his father say this, and immediately raised the tea bowl and took a sip.
"Huh!" Xuan Jing couldn't help but be surprised, and looked up at his father again. Xuanbu was looking at him with a smile.
Xuanjing has been in the palace since he was a child, and today he sees that this small shop is shabby, and he sees that the tea is red and black. I feel strange in my heart, I don't know what kind of tea is brewed, and some people are reluctant to drink it. It's just that my father said it, and I barely took a sip, but I didn't expect it to be mellow and abnormal, and the entrance and exit were a little light and bitter, but slowly sweetened, and I drank it hot, and I felt that my body was warm.
But at the time of a cup of tea, the shopkeeper brought a tray up, and there were four dishes and two bowls of rice on the tray, which looked steaming. Xuanbu was indeed a little hungry, so he greeted Xuanjing, picked up the bowl and began to eat.
Xuan Jing also picked up the bowl and looked at the dishes on the table, which were just ordinary dishes such as green vegetables and small fish, tofu and pork, but they smelled fragrant and fragrant, and I couldn't help drooling a little. When he became hungry, he also began to eat like his father.
After a while, the shopkeeper came up with another bowl of soup. The father and son each drank a bowl, ate their stomachs, and felt very comfortable.
"Jing'er, the food here is not bad, right?" Xuanbu asked lazily.
Xuan Jing took out a handkerchief and wiped his mouth, "It's not bad, I've eaten such delicious dishes in my life!" ”
Xuan Bu smiled slightly, stood up, threw a small piece of broken silver on the table, and said to Xuan Jing: "When you are full, go home." ”
The father and son came out of the shop and walked down the alley. Xuan Bu looked up and saw a full moon hanging in the sky, Xuan Bu's heart moved slightly, as if he felt that something was wrong, and he couldn't remember it.
The two walked for a while, and Xuan Jing shouted in a low voice: "Jing'er! ”
But he didn't hear Xuan Jing's answer, Xuan Bu's heart trembled, and when he looked back, sure enough, the street was empty, where was Xuan Jing's shadow.
Xuanbu secretly screamed badly, and the doubts in his heart were solved immediately. Today is approaching the end of the month, where is the full moon. The alley of this small shop was only a few dozen steps, and his father and son walked for a long time, and they walked to the main street anyway. However, the scenery of the alleys is still around, and there is endless darkness in front and behind.
Array of Stars! Xuan Bu sneered in his heart, it seems that what Bai Lie said is right, those people in Kunlun Ruins are still thieves after all. Today should be the day of the 'Tengu Lunar Eclipse' that has not been encountered in several years, and the star tracks coincide, and the mystic master has set up this array of stars, which can make the trapped people lose their way and not know the time. If you can't break the opponent's formation, it's not a strange thing to run back and forth in the formation, and finally die of exhaustion.
Xuanbu looked up at the sky, and sure enough, at this time, the full moon had all disappeared, and the fog also rose around the alley, and he suddenly couldn't see his five fingers.
Xuan Bu was not panicked, but he was worried about Xuan Jing's safety. I just want to break through this star array quickly and go out to save people.
Xuanbu unbuttoned his robe, revealing the long sword at his waist. Although Xuanbu had been absent from the army for a long time, the emperor still gave him the ability to wear a sword to the court, which was the highest courtesy. The sword on Xuanbu's waist is obtained with a lot of money, and it is called 'Sinking Water Dragon Sparrow', although it is not as good as the Muyun sword is an artifact in the world, but it is also a sword that is difficult to find in the world. The sword body is broad and heavy, the blade is sharp and tough, and with Xuanbu's skill, it can be described as indestructible.
I saw Xuan Bu slowly pull out the long sword at his waist, the tip of the sword pointed to the sky, and he didn't move. His lips moved slightly, but no sound came out, it wasn't any chanting, and there were no awkward syllables that Xuan Bu had when he taught Xuan Jing's mantra. There is only one syllable - break!
Mantra! The foundation of the world's secret arts, ten thousand secret techniques are reduced to thirty-six mantras, and through different arrangements and recitations, different secret arts effects are produced. Xuanbu forcibly compressed dozens of mantras into a single moment, as if ten thousand voices were issued in unison, and thousands of voices were gathered together, as if there was only one syllable.
The slowly rising mist in the Array of Stars has been interrupted! A glimmer of moonlight in the sky! The entire array of stars was interrupted.
The tip of the sword pointed at the sky and still didn't move.
Break! The mantra exploded in Xuanbu's mouth again!
Slowly, the alley street scene that had disappeared gradually appeared, and the moon revealed more. The Array of Stars has begun to crumble!
Xuan Bu still pointed his sword to the sky motionlessly, and stood there quietly. He knew in his heart that the enemy did not hesitate to spend so much effort to lay down this star array, and he would definitely not listen to a few words of his own truth and finish the matter.
Now that the star array has begun to collapse, if the other party doesn't stop it, the breaking formation will be in an instant, and Xuan Bu is not in a hurry.
Suddenly! A few imperceptible rays of light flashed in the darkness, heading straight for Xuanbu.
Xuan Bu was not alarmed, his left hand waved slightly, and the air in front of him seemed to condense, blocking the progress of the light, and they fell to the ground one after another. Xuanbu swept his eyes, and it was actually a ninja dart!
Bai Lie was really not wrong, and Dongyi Kingdom was also involved.
There was darkness around Xuanbu, and six black-clothed people appeared out of thin air, their faces covered, each carrying a narrow knife behind their backs. At a glance, Xuanbu knew that it was a katana unique to Dongyi Province. The blade of the knife is naturally curved when it is quenched, called 'Jinganti', and the handle is about a foot long, which is convenient for holding in both hands, while the knife technique is simple and ruthless, and the power is amazing.
However, Xuan Bu knew in his heart that it would be impossible for these ninjas to lay down this star array. There must be a master of secret art who presides over the formation behind the scenes, but it hasn't appeared yet.
Xuanbu raised his sword with one hand and took a step forward. This step has broken the silence that has always been in the formation. The six ninjas had no choice but to follow suit. Genbu didn't stop, took another step forward, and the ninjas continued to move.
Genbu is getting faster and faster, and the ninjas don't make a move, just closely following Genbu's footsteps. Suddenly, Xuanbu stopped suddenly! The rhythm has changed, and the six ninjas are not chaotic at all, still following the rhythm of Genbu, maintaining the momentum of encircling Genbu.
The seven of them moved quickly in the narrow alley, and none of them made a move. But the seven of them all know in their hearts that when one side makes a move, it is the time to divide the victory and defeat!
The six ninjas were gradually unable to adapt to Genbu's rhythm, and he was not just blindly seeking to be fast, which was easy to be grasped by his opponents. The rhythm of Xuanbu's movement is fast and slow, unpredictable, and every step is just right, it is the flaw in the formation of these six people that forces the six people to follow the movement to maintain the formation.
Genbu swooped down, and the ninja standing in the eye of the formation was half a step slower, and was snatched in front of him by Genbu. The black-clothed ninja was horrified and hurriedly stretched out his hand to draw his sword. His knife was behind his back, and the moment he drew it, he would inevitably shrink his chest and borrow strength. Xuan Bu took advantage of this moment and hit his shoulder, and the black-clothed ninja didn't have time to avoid it, and was hit by Xuan Bu in his arms, and when he landed, his ribs in his chest were broken, and the person flew out like a kite with a broken string. Xuanbu's collision was too fast, and the man in black flew in mid-air, and the force of drawing the knife in his hand was still endless, and he pulled out the knife from his back, but it was useless.
The remaining five people are all out of the sword! It's just that Xuanbu is faster than them, and a shining sword light tears through the darkness, and Xuanbu finally swings his sword!
The five heads flew into the sky together, and the blood from their necks spurted out like volcanic lava, one sword and five lives!
Blood was dripping on Xuan Bu's body, but Xuan Bu didn't even blink his eyes.
At this moment, another man appeared in the darkness on the street corner, wearing a black cloak and covering his face with a hood.
"Believers in Kunlun Ruins, you have finally appeared!" Xuanbu's cold voice didn't carry any emotion.
"O ignorant man! Do you think that with the sword in your hand, you can break through my star array? The man in black said coldly.
"After all these years, you still have that disgusting face!" Before Xuanbu's words fell, people had already rushed out like cheetahs!
There was a rapid chant from the black-clad mouth, and a mist began to rise around him again.
"Broken!" Xuanbu issued a mantra for the third time! Like a gust of wind, the fog was blown away in an instant. The horror in the eyes of the man in black had not subsided, and the shining sword light had already been split!
