Chapter 36: Toei Ninja
"Zheng!"
The four blades collided together, and immediately a piercing sound vibrated into the air.
At the same time, countless sparks burst out from the clash of the four blades.
Under the fleeting bright firelight, the appearance of the owner of the slender long knife was revealed.
The man looked a little emaciated, but he was certain to be a man, wearing a black veil and a night coat, hiding his appearance completely.
After being shaken open by the man in black, the previous brocade guards did not directly attack again.
Instead, they stopped with their swords on guard, and the brocade-clothed guard said, "Where is Your Excellency sacred, I don't know where we have offended Your Excellency?" Causing Your Excellency to chase after us for hundreds of miles? ”
"No hatred and no resentment, just take people's money and people to eliminate disasters, and be entrusted by others to take your life!"
The man in black slowly shook the slender knife in his hand, and said in a stiff and rigid voice.
Judging from the accent of this man in black, he doesn't seem to be from the Central Plains.
"Since you are taking people's money, I don't know how much money you need to return it?
As long as Your Excellency retreats like this, we will surely offer a hundred taels or even a thousand taels of gold. ”
The hundred households in brocade tried to see if they could exchange the benefits for the departure of the man in black.
One hundred taels or one thousand taels of gold was already a very large fortune, but unfortunately the man in black was not impressed at all.
He didn't say anything more, raised his hand and wiped it on the slender long knife, and swept straight towards the brocade guards.
Seeing such a scene, the look in the eyes of the brocade guards also suddenly froze, and the embroidered spring knives in their hands were swung out in unison, and at the same time attacked the man in black.
Sonorous!
The three embroidered spring knives shimmered with a snowy silver light, and slashed through a neat arc from mid-air, directly targeting the black-clothed man's body to kill the hole.
These three brocade guards have obviously been getting along and working together all year round, and the three of them cooperate as if they have been tempered for thousands of years.
This made Zhou Chen and Badao, who were watching on the other side, also surprised.
These brocade guards cooperate with each other to form a perfect attack, some assist, some respond, and some are responsible for sneak attacks.
Don't look at the internal strength of the three of them, which is only at the first-class level, but ordinary people in the Jianghu martial arts face such a perfectly coordinated brocade guard, I am afraid that even the top masters may be angry on the spot.
However, it is a pity that the man in black on the opposite side not only has deep internal strength, but also has very strange knife skills.
The slender knife in his hand was like a poisonous snake, winding and circling within the attack of the three embroidered spring knives.
In addition, the place inside this ruined temple was not very spacious, so the battle of moves between the four of them was even more dangerous to the extreme.
In just a moment's time, the three brocade guards were left with long and narrow wounds on their bodies.
Blood couldn't stop trickling down from the wound, and it didn't take long to soak the flying fish suits worn by the three brocade guards in a touch of red.
Looking at the black-clothed men and brocade-clothed guards who were fighting fiercely not far away, Zhou Chen leaned on the edge of the statue and watched.
Compared with those people watching the drama in the theater garden, Zhou Chen is afraid that he is short of a pot of tea and a plate of melons and fruits.
Although with Zhou Chen's martial arts cultivation, he can completely help those brocade guards and rescue the crisis faced by those brocade guards.
But for no reason, how could he be willing to be involved in these inexplicable grievances?
Honestly standing aside and watching the play, wouldn't this be more leisurely.
However, what Ba Dao said suddenly immediately changed Zhou Chen's original plan to sit idly by.
I saw that Ba Dao stared closely at the four people who were fighting fiercely not far away, and he muttered to himself, "This is the ninja sword technique of the Toei Iga faction?" No wonder that man's accent didn't resemble that of a Middle-earthite, it turned out that he was a ninja from the Wa Kingdom! ”
Because Zhou Chen has not been practicing the sword technique for a long time, he just watches others fight fiercely for the time being.
But the sword is completely different, as a master of the sword in the martial arts of the rivers and lakes, he may not be able to be called a thorough understanding of the martial arts in the world.
However, in terms of knife skills, it is very good that there are knife techniques that the tyrant does not know.
Therefore, as soon as the black-clothed man and the brocade-clothed guard exchanged hands, the overlord immediately recognized the origin of the knife technique in the black-clothed man's hand.
After hearing the murmur of the overlord knife in his ears, Zhou Chen suddenly turned his head to look at the overlord sword, and he asked in a deep voice: "Lao Liu, can you be sure that the man in black is from the Wa Kingdom?" ”
Ba Dao nodded heavily and confirmed: "Childe, this point is absolutely wrong, my subordinates once fought with the upper ninja of the Iga faction, and the man in black used the ninja technique of the Iga faction."
Coupled with his stiff and stiff accent, he must not be from the Central Plains. ”
After getting the affirmation of the sword, Zhou Chen's eyes were filled with a strong killing intent in the neutral time: "The prince of the Ming Dynasty must not die in the hands of the little devil in Dongying!" ”
The prince of the Ming Dynasty in Zhou Chen's mouth is undoubtedly referring to the young man who was guarded and served by the brocade guard.
To be able to accompany such an elite brocade guard, and at the same time be qualified to wear a bright yellow robe, that young man must be a member of the Ming royal family.
And the current Hongzhi Emperor Zhu Youzhu is very loyal to love, there is only one queen in his life, and there is only one only son under his knees, that is the future Zhengde Emperor Zhu Houzhao.
If the young man in the broken temple is a member of the royal family, then according to his age, only Zhu Houzhao, who is still the crown prince, is in line with him.
Because he was unwilling to get involved in the grievances and hatreds between others, even though Zhou Chen had some vague guesses about the identity and origin of the young man, he still didn't choose to intervene.
After all, whether the surname Zhu is in this world or not has little to do with Zhou Chen himself.
It is precisely if there is chaos in the court today, it will be more conducive to Zhou Chen's own climb in power.
But now that Zhou Chen has discovered that the man in black is from the Eastern Ying Kingdom, the situation is very different.
How could I, the crown prince of the royal family, fall into the hands of the little devil in Dongying?
Without any cover-up and concealment, Zhou Chen immediately commanded Badao in a deep voice and said, "Lao Liu, you go up to help and unload the limbs of that Dongying man for me!" ”
