Chapter 253: Returning to the Peerless City (Ask for Subscription!) )
"The peerless sword is a strange cold thing in the world, isn't the divine weapon he wants to refine a heavenly calamity, which means that the one in front of him is not an iron god, but a pretending iron slaughter!"
Li Xiao couldn't help but stare when he heard this. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Li Xiao, who is familiar with the plot of the movie, naturally knows that Tie Madness pretends to be an iron god and is in charge of the plot of Tiexin Island, but because the timeline is not clear before, he can't make a conclusion.
Although he confirmed his thoughts at this time, he didn't mean to debunk it, and he still maintained a vague smile on his face.
"The sword embryo of the peerless good sword was originally in the Sword Worship Villa, but because of the old grudge between the rivers and lakes, the Sword Worship Villa has fallen into disarray, and the remnants of the forces have also defected to the World Society, and there is no news of this peerless good sword." Huaikong frowned slightly, combing the thoughts in his mind.
"That's right, it's because of the importance of the matter that the teacher will entrust you." The Iron Maniac Butcher twisted his beard, scheming and scheming.
Huaikong met the master's earnest gaze and couldn't help but nod heavily: "Since the master has entrusted him, the disciple must live up to his mission." ”
At this moment, Li Xiao, who had been silent, also spoke: "Island master, you might as well let me go with Huaikong on this trip, I have an old friend to see here, and Huaikong can also take care of each other." ”
Li Xiao wants to complete the task, of course he can't nest in this projectile land, he still has to go to Middle-earth, and at the same time, there are apprentices he misses, Broken Lang and Dugu Ming.
Tie Madness Tu was stunned for a moment, a strange look flashed in his eyes, and after hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help but nod and smile: "That's fine, Mr. should take care more." ”
……
……
In the afternoon, Li Xiao and Huaikong left Tiexin Island, boarded a ship on the island, set sail, rode the wind and waves, and finally set foot on the land of Middle-earth after a sea voyage.
The two got into the carriage and passed by the great rivers and mountains of Middle-earth, witnessing the beautiful scenery and pleasant climate along the way.
At the same time, many cities along the way were collapsed and ruined, which is enough to imagine the fierceness of the battle at that time.
The entire rivers and lakes were no longer calm, and they were once again in turmoil, witnessing this scene, Li Xiao shook his head and couldn't help but sigh lightly in his heart.
On the contrary, it is Huaikong, he has lived on Iron Heart Island since he was a child, this is the first time he has come to Middle-earth, and he is also very interested in the customs and customs here, and he stares at a pair of curious eyes everywhere.
After the carriage and horses galloped, the two trekked through mountains and rivers, and finally came to a city-state called Bingzhou, which is the fortress of transportation, and to the east is the territory of the Tianxiahui, and to the west is near the Wushuang City, but it is not as prosperous as imagined, full of gloom and desolation, walking on the street, people rarely see, and those who don't know think that they have come to the frontier.
Walking into an inn, Li Xiao called the shopkeeper, ordered some side dishes, and talked with Huaikong about the wine.
"Huaikong, how do you feel about coming to Middle-earth for the first time this time?" Li Xiao said.
"This Central Plains land is full of outstanding people, vast land, and has a different kind of customs, and I have lived on Tiexin Island for decades like a frog at the bottom of a well... However, although Middle-earth is large, it has been disturbed by this war. In the end, Huaikong couldn't help but sigh, and there was a hint of regret in his eyes.
Li Xiao picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and said lightly: "Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and power disputes are naturally inevitable, but it seems to be so tragic that it is not what we want." ”
After finishing speaking, Li Xiao couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly. Before leaving the Fengyun plane, he had made many layouts, in order to make the Wushuang City a family dominate and dominate the rivers and lakes.
But I didn't think about it, the storm fanned by this little butterfly changed the plot beyond recognition, not only did it not usher in a brilliant prosperous era, but on the contrary, because of the rise of the three major forces, the bloody wind on the rivers and lakes, and I don't know how many lives were buried under this power dispute.
……
……
It was a moment of emotion in his heart.
Outside the door of the inn, a group of sect disciples dressed in yellow clothes and carrying waist knives suddenly broke in, they were menacing, their faces were evil, and the few diners in the store were scared away.
Some of them divided the array and blocked the doorway, and a few others came to the counter, the first one, a burly figure with a striking scar that slashed diagonally from the eyebrow bone to the side of the cheek, and looked terrifying.
He slapped the counter and shouted imposingly: "Shopkeeper, this month's tax is still delayed, you don't want to open this inn!" ”
He put the waist knife on his waist on the table, and said in a fierce voice.
The shopkeeper who was settling accounts on the counter was so frightened by the sudden momentum that he shrank his neck, the anger in his eyes flashed away, and he hurriedly walked out, nodded and smiled: "Uncle... This tax is not just paid a few days ago, I am a small business to do, it is not easy, so, today the small I will pay, the uncles in the inn although eat and drink well, do not charge a penny. ”
"Why, this is the territory of my world association, you can do whatever you like, you still can't keep your mouth shut? Believe it or not, I ordered someone to tear down your broken inn! ”
Scarface glared at the leopard's eyes.
"It turns out that these are the disciples of the Tianxia Society, no wonder they are so rampant, and no wonder this neighborhood is the territory of the Tianxia Society, according to the urine nature of the Tianxia Society, how can there be a reason not to interfere?"
When Li Xiao heard this, he couldn't help frowning slightly.
"Uncle, can this be graced for a few more days, the store has been in a recession recently, and it is really difficult." The shopkeeper continued to plead, daring to be angry but not daring to speak.
The shopkeeper on the side came to make tea, but the teacup was directly knocked over to the ground by a disciple of the Tianxia Association.
"It's so deceitful!"
With a strong sense of justice, he threw the wine glass hard, and put his hands on the table hard, and he was about to roar when he saw injustice.
But before he could make a move, another group of people kicked the guards at the door outside the inn and broke into the inn. I saw that the outfit of this group of people was completely different from that of the disciples of the Tianxia Society, dressed in gray, and behind them were embroidered with two vigorous and powerful handwriting "Dugu".
"Zhang Hu, this state is obviously the place of our peerless city, when will it be your turn to come here to dominate the world?!"
The first man asked in a deep voice.
"Hmph, Zhao Ying, what kind of dog are you, I can collect money as much as I want here, you get out of the way!"
The world will be in a stalemate with Wushuang City, as two huge forces in the rivers and lakes today, the atmosphere suddenly dropped to zero, and all the contradictions gathered together, just like a cluster of flames thrown into the barrel of explosives, and the situation on the scene was out of control.
Zhang Hu raised his wrist, lit up the bright machete, and took the lead in attacking, Zhao Ying was not far behind, and with a loud sound, he drew his sword from his waist and unsheathed it, and the blade trembled like a spiritual snake spitting letters, and stabbed it hard.
The disciples of Wushuang City and the Tianxia Society fought together, the cold light flickered, the gold and iron resonated, the momentum was violent, and the tables, chairs and benches overturned, leaving shocking sword marks.
Only Li Xiao and Huaikong's table, the periphery seemed to be blocked by an invisible wall of qi, and the eyeless sword that was chopped was either smashed into the corner, or changed direction and folded to another place, and even the hair of their sideburns did not move a bit!
……
……
Obviously, the number of disciples of the Tianxia Guild on the field is more advantageous, and because of the limitation of space, the fierce sword technique is more effective than the elegant sword technique.
The Peerless City side was able to resist at the first moment, but as time passed, this disadvantage was gradually magnified as if it had been put under a microscope. By the end of the day, the balance of victory had been completely tilted towards the world, and Zhao Ying and others in Wushuang City were surrounded in the middle, making desperate resistance.
"Brothers, let's kill all the disciples of this group of Peerless City, and the deputy hall master will definitely have a heavy reward at that time!" Zhang Hu licked the corners of his mouth, smiled coldly, shook his arm holding the fast knife vigorously, and encouraged his subordinates around him.
Hearing this, these disciples of the World Association were as excited as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and they were about to start a massacre.
Suddenly, "Whew!" A piercing sonic boom suddenly sounded, and a fierce sword qi burst out from Li Xiao's bent fingertips and bounced towards Zhang Hu's heart.
Just when Zhang Hu was about to take off Zhao Ying's head, his steps were stiff, the sneer on his face was also frozen, his flushed face looked down incredibly, and he saw that there was a hole as thick as a candle in his chest at some point, and the blood was gushing like a spring, and he couldn't stop bubbling out, his eyes widened in horror, but he couldn't make a sound anyway, his body shook, and he fell to the ground, so he couldn't die anymore!
A killer move, silently.
"Who else!" Li Xiao turned his head, his eyes were hideous, and an invisible coercion spread, and everyone present couldn't help but tremble.
The tiger head is dead, who of the other rats still dares to fight, and the rest of the world's disciples look at each other, throw away their armor one after another, and flee in the wilderness.
……
……
"Mr. Li's sword qi has reached the point of perfection!" Huaikong looked at Li Xiao's long and slender fingers, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva deeply.
The weapon that Huaikong carried behind his back, Heavenly Sin, was neither a sword nor a sword, but a unique weapon.
So strictly speaking, Huaikong doesn't know much about sword qi martial arts, but he knows that if he wants to emit sword qi without the help of weapons, I'm afraid that only a martial artist like Nameless can do it, and Master Tieshen also told him that there are no more than three people in the world who can do this, and Mr. Li, who is unfathomable in front of him, actually occupies one of the seats, how can he not be shocked in his heart?
"Thank you for your help... Not... Zhao Ying is grateful..."Zhao Ying covered his injured arm, held his long sword, and reluctantly stepped forward to grate.
Li Xiao waved his hand casually and glanced at his injuries: "Are you okay with the injuries on your body?" ”
"It's okay, just a simple bandage." Zhao Ying slammed his arm, signaling that it was not a big deal, and said after a while: "I don't know the name of the master, your life-saving grace, I will repay him with a straw ring one day!"
"There's no need to repay the favor, but there's something you need to do now."
Zhao Ying was slightly stunned when she heard this: "It's okay to say it." ”
"Take me to your city lord."
"See my city lord? Are you going to the Peerless City? ”
"That's right, I have a relationship with your city lord, so please show me the way."
"That's how it is... This time, our patrol mission out of the city is also completed, and we are about to return to Wushuang City, so let's invite the master to come along. A trace of doubt flashed in Zhao Ying's eyes, and he nodded reflexively in response while being surprised.
Li Xiao bowed slightly, turned his head and patted Huaikong's shoulder: "Huaikong, I have some things to do in Wushuang City, let's say goodbye." ”
"Okay, Mr. Li, we are destined to meet again." Huaikong stood up and said respectfully, his eyes as bright as spring water revealing a trace of reluctance.
Li Xiao couldn't help but nodded, and just as he was about to step out of the inn, he paused again, the light in his eyes flashed, and he said earnestly: "Huaikong, there are some things that must not be blinded by the surface." There are countless strange and cold things in this world, but why does your master want to seize that peerless sword? Have you ever wondered why this is a deeper one? ”
"What does Mr. Li mean?" Huaikong froze in place, looking puzzled.
"You can experience this by yourself, and there will be a period later." After finishing speaking, Li Xiaotou left without looking back, and finally disappeared into the bustling street corner surrounded by the disciples of Wushuang City.
"Mr. Li, this is something to say." Huaikong looked at the back that disappeared at the end of the street, and couldn't help muttering to himself.
……
……
Li Xiao, Zhao Ying and others left Bingzhou, traveled all the way west, and gradually entered the sphere of influence of Wushuang City.
Along the way, you can see that many hills and roads are stationed with disciples of Wushuang City, and the flags representing the forces of the Dugu clan are also fluttering everywhere, which is very spectacular.
At this time, Zhao Ying and the others, who were injured in a fight with the world, were also bandaged simply, which can be regarded as stabilizing their injuries, and after entering their own territory, they were able to take off their solemn looks.
Seeing this situation, Li Xiao, who had been silent, couldn't help but speak: "Since that state is a battleground for rivers and lakes, why don't you have more disciples stationed in Wushuang City, otherwise the fight just now will not fall behind." ”
In the battle of the inn just now, the disciples of the Tianxia Society used fast knives, although there were some advantages, but this was not fundamental, in the final analysis, the number of disciples in Wushuang City was small at that time, and throughout the entire state, the power of Wushuang City only penetrated very little, which seemed a bit abnormal, could it be that Dugu Ming didn't realize the importance of the state?
Zhao Ying shook his head, revealing a bitter smile: "This gentleman doesn't know, it's not that we don't want to station more disciples in Wushuang City, but there is no way at all." ”
"No way?" Li Xiao couldn't help frowning.
"Yes, if you want to increase the number of people stationed, there are not enough disciples in the sect at all, and the geographical location of Wushuang City is very special. Speaking of which, the ancestor of our Wushuang City is a subordinate of Jizhou Mu Han Fu during the Three Kingdoms period - Wushuang General Pan Feng, because of his meritorious service in challenging Huaxiong in Bishui Pass, so Jizhou Mu rewarded this Wushuang City as a fief. The terrain here is special, and if there is an invasion from the outside, Wushuang Castle is located in the vertical area, so it is naturally difficult to be affected...... However, if there is internal strife, it will be the enemy. ”
"Our Wushuang City relies on the Tianxia Society in the east and the Tianmen forces in the north, which can be said to be attacked by the enemy on the back and back, and the front and back attacks, so the city lord has to evenly distribute the disciples in the gate in each station, so that the scattered ones are more, and the manpower is relatively weak." Zhao Ying said.
"I see." After listening to Zhao Ying's explanation, Li Xiao also had a hint of enlightenment in his heart.
The world will sit in the east, and in ancient times, the north was respected, so the emperor set the headquarters of the heavenly gate in the north, so that the two forces had a common intersection point, and this unrivaled city happened to form a corner.
And Wushuang City has to beware of these two forces at the same time, the pressure is not ordinary, no wonder Zhao Ying and the others have such solemn expressions.
As he spoke, the group had already arrived in Wushuang City. Li Xiao slowly raised his head, and in front of him, an ancient desolate city with mottled bluestone was like a silent dragon, lying there quietly!
