Chapter Ninety-Six: Xue Yijian
……
……
The sun was shining high, sprinkled on the quiet land, and a layer of golden brilliance was paced.
Outside the ruined temple surrounded by mountains, there are green grass and trees, and the flowers are charming.
Muji opened the temple door and looked into the distance.
The dense fog in the mountains has dissipated, and the green shade is everywhere, which is very different from the scenery of the capital.
It is very common for people like them to go out early and return late, and they have never seen a pleasant scenery like this.
The temple door closed, and he paced to a path through a forest of fine foliage to the mountains.
Birds flutter and sing the music of the day in the middle of the trees.
As soon as the stone in his hand came out, a bird fell to the ground quickly, danced its wings a few times and slowly stopped.
After a while, a few birds fell on the ground, and he weighed them, threw them aside, and went to pick up the firewood.
The early morning firewood had a night of dew, and it was too wet to burn, so he came later and waited until the sun was in full bloom to collect firewood.
After taking two steps further, suddenly, a formidable sword aura pierced through the dense leaves of the forest.
Muji dodged, and the trees behind him were knocked to the ground.
He raised his eyes and saw a black-clad Li Mansion guard standing in front of a big tree in the distance.
The man's eyebrows were like sharp edges, his eyes were sharp, his thin lips were slightly pursed, and he was looking at him coldly.
"Are you here?" Mu Ji raised his lips and sneered, "How dare you come alone!" ”
As he spoke, he pulled out the large knife that had not been unsheathed for several days at his waist.
The blade is golden and sharp.
With a low snort, he rushed towards the guards.
Xue Yan's eyes lit up, he took the sword in one hand, waved the hilt of the sword and hurried away.
The two soon got together.
The sound of the wind, the sound of falling leaves, and the crisp chirping of birds in the mountains and forests are no match for the piercing sound of swords colliding at this moment.
Xue Yan looked at the person opposite coldly, and Mu Ji's fierce face was reflected in his dark pupils.
He raised his hand to block the big knife he swung, and with a forceful flick, the knife was a little unstable.
Muji took two steps back and glared coldly at the guard.
"Don't you want to go back safe and sound today!" He said, and made another move to slash it with all his might.
Xue Yan didn't dodge, he directly held his sword to resist his attack, and then swung hard to knock the person back.
He continued to chase after him, stabbing at Muji, the last of which stabbed him in the left arm.
Blood slowly flowed out, and Muji clutched his arms and retreated, retreating under a large tree.
Reluctance and resentment appeared on his face.
He is Lord Yao's right-hand man, his martial arts are very high, and when he was in the capital, he had no difficulty dealing with several people, and even Lord Yu praised him.
But at this moment, he was actually injured by this person within twenty moves.
He was not convinced.
Thinking of this, he endured the pain in his arm, gritted his teeth and slashed at Xue Yan.
"Take your life!"
His blank expression had been completely shattered, and it had turned into a vicious hideous at this moment.
After several more moves, he was still defeated, and the knife was moved not far away by Xue Yan and stabbed to the ground.
Xue Yan stabbed him in the chest with a sword.
With a "poof", Muji spat out blood and half-squatted on the ground.
The sun shone on him in the sky, and it was a little scorching, and he didn't know whether it hurt or burned.
The pain was unbearable, and he held his chest with one hand and the ground with the other, his eyes gradually drifting.
Suddenly, there was a sharp sound, and another knife stabbed through the air.
Xue Yan's figure flashed and he dodged to the side.
"You're really impatient!" Yao Pu hooked the corners of his lips, and his eyes were cold.
"Who gave you the guts to come here to me?"
"Do you really think you can beat me this time after you hurt me last time?"
Xue Yan did not answer these questions.
He has always been able to talk less and talk less, since he was a child, and now, it is also like this.
He rushed straight to Yao Pu and used all the skills he had learned over the years.
Miss is safe in the house, he can spare no effort to do it, no matter what, he has to fight with him to the death.
"Looks like you're planning to die!"
Yao Pu said in a deep voice, and a gravity slapped over, knocking Xue Yan back a few steps.
The two continued to fight, swords facing each other, leaving the sound of breaking through the forest in vain.
Xue Yan fought hard, cut Yao Pu's weapon open, and stabbed his hand, while he was slapped by Yao Pu and flew under a tree.
"You can't beat me." Yao Pu said, walked up to him, and looked at him condescendingly.
"Tell me quickly, what is the relationship between you and Xue Yijian?"
Bright red blood flowed from the corner of Xue Yan's mouth, staring at him silently.
"Not going to say it yet? I'm really impatient! Yao Pu sneered and stomped on his injured abdomen.
"To say or not to say?" When he spoke, his right foot was exerting force at the same time, and Xue Yan's forehead was bruised, and a layer of sweat broke out.
Xue Yan still kept silent.
"In that case, I'll send you to hell!" After Yao Pu finished speaking, he stabbed over.
"Bang".
The sparse circle of light in the forest, under the dense green trees, the warm wind gusted, and Xue Yan's eyes looked not far away.
I saw a man dressed in black walking slowly on the fine weeds, with a high ponytail tied on his head, and a faint expression on his handsome face.
Yao Pu's expression of disbelief moved away from the knife that was still in his hand but was now in the distance, and looked at the person coldly.
"It's you." He said, hooking his lips and standing up, "Xue Yijian." ”
……
……
In the calm jungle, there are leaves everywhere.
Xue Yijian walked to Yao Pu's side and picked up the sword that had just been unsheathed.
In this process, it didn't take long, but it felt like a long time, and the rest of the people seemed to be still.
"Long time no see, Yao Pu." He said lightly, putting his sword away.
The slight sound of the sword rubbing against the scabbard was unusually harsh at this moment.
Yao Pu smiled.
He took a few steps back to the dying Muji.
"You finally appeared, Xue Yijian." He said, smiling, "I thought you were dead." ”
When the fluttering words reached Xue Yijian's ears, he also smiled, but the smile was very cold, not as obvious as Yao Pu's smile.
"I won't die until you die." He said.
The atmosphere in which the two of them spoke as if they had been friends for many years, but everyone present knew that they were fierce rivals.
With his last breath, Muji pulled out the hidden weapon from his sleeve, ready to strike while the two of them were concentrating on talking to each other.
Xue Yijian noticed it first.
"Yours are looking out for you." He said, "I know you can't beat me, so I want to help you first." ”
Yao Pu didn't feel anything when he heard this, but Mu Ji was a little annoyed.
He simply took the hidden weapon and swung it at him, and at the same time, the blood in his mouth slowly overflowed, his eyes widened, and he completely collapsed before he could see where the hidden weapon flew.
"He's dead." Yao Pu said, looking at the person opposite with a smile on his face, "Your subordinate is also dying." ”
Xue Yan covered his abdomen, sweating profusely on his forehead.
"No, it won't."
Xue Yijian's words are like a spring under the scorching sun.
"My apprentice won't die." He shook his head and said, Mu Ran looked at Yao Pu, "But you will die." ”
This is easy and simple, but it only makes people feel ridiculous.
"Xue Yijian, don't you still think that my Yao Pu is Yao Pu more than ten years ago? I'm not the same as I was before! ”
"yes, you're not the same as you were before." Xue Yijian repeated his words, his eyes full of sarcasm, "It's been more than ten years, if it's still the same as before, doesn't it mean that you haven't grown at all?" ”
"You!" Yao Pu was a little annoyed and angry, "Being hurt by you back then was just a momentary mistake, you don't have to mention the previous incident again!" ”
"It's you who always remember, remember that you are my defeated man!" Xue Yijian curled his lips slightly, "Or do you think you can kill me now?" ”
These words seemed to stab Yao Pu and made him completely angry.
"Today is either you dead or I die!" He said, and one Yue Bu grabbed the big knife and slashed at Xue Yijian.
Xue Yijian jumped up in the air and flew up to him to fight him.
The two were evenly matched, and the fight was dark.
The piercing sound was staggered, and the sound of weapons breaking through the air resounded throughout the mountain.
Xue Yan held on to the stump and tried to stand up, but fell down on a staggering footing.
He spat out another mouthful of blood, splashing the ground to look shocking.
Still doesn't move, he can still hold out until the master saves him.
Thinking of this, he slowly closed his eyes and rested.
