Blind Swordsman

The curtains were opened, and the sudden influx of Yangguan instantly filled the thirty-square-meter guest room, Xiang Nanxing held back the pain in his eyes, got up, and reluctantly raised his head to look forward. Despite being a little backlit, he finally saw clearly the man who had almost killed him in a few moves.

This is a rather ordinary-looking uncle, his facial features are so ordinary that he can't be found in the crowd, he has a flat head, his beard is shaved a little randomly, and the half-short stubble and the cyan fibrous roots are mixed together, which looks like a little unruly, which is also one of the few characteristics on his body. At this time, he was wearing a white shirt and trousers, and a pair of leather shoes on his feet. The shirt is short-sleeved, the texture is on the thin side, the sheer side, and it looks very breathable. It's just that on such a hot day, he still put on a thin black suit outside.

He was carrying a katana that had been put into its sheath in his hand, and it was obviously this thing that had cornered Xiang Nanxing just now. However, Xiang Nanxing narrowed his eyes, but his gaze finally fell on the black suit. Of course, it is impossible to walk outside in such long-sleeved dark clothes in this kind of weather, which will only be seen as a neuropath. However, in the brief confrontation just now, the other party had to put on his clothes and start to do it again, and there can only be one explanation behind this.

"Sure enough, it's the host." Xiang Nanxing stared at his face vigilantly, "I would venture to ask, what is your ranking?" ”

"A location that is not worth mentioning." The other laughed. He turned around, and Xiang Nanxing noticed that his eyes were still closed, probably waiting for time to slowly adjust to the light. "Since you're a little interested in rankings, I happen to be thinking about this." He continued, "Want to know where you are? ”

"Isn't it possible for a host to participate in your mysterious ranking?" Xiang Nanxing sneered, "I would like to hear about it." ”

He pretended to be arrogant on the surface, but in fact he was somewhat expectant. Although the other party claimed to be a "position not worth mentioning", judging from what was shown in just a few seconds, Xiang Nanxing judged that he was at least stronger than the "evasion" Yue Ming he had met before. In other words, this ordinary-looking middle-aged man is at the same level as the "black cat" Qiu Banxia and the "masked man" Fike, and may even be higher.

With this level of host as the enemy, even if Xiang Nanxing feels that he has grown a lot, he still knows that there is no chance at all. In fact, it is true, although it took three knives and wasted a few seconds, the other party finally got the opportunity to kill with one blow, and after such a round of fierce attack and defense, the other party could not even see a trace of sweat on his clothes, in other words, the other party had not even come up with a little real skill, but on the contrary, Xiang Nanxing was already out of breath, and he couldn't even breathe back for a while.

Fortunately, I heard the other party say this, and then think about the meaning revealed in the previous words, the purpose of the three knives just now should be that the test did not run. The unidentified middle-aged man had no intention of taking his life, but was only trying to test his strength for some unknown motive. Although he couldn't unlock the secret of this motive, the other party's approach was exactly what he wanted.

Since the middle-aged man is a high-ranking host, his eyesight and vision are naturally not comparable to others. The evaluation that came out of his mouth is of great significance to Xiang Nanxing, at least he will have a deeper understanding of the judgment of the comparison of strength in the future, and when he meets other hosts, he can also consider the option of counterattacking or breaking the rules according to the situation......

"If you face it head-on, it's still no fun."

As soon as the other party opened his mouth, he smashed his counterattack option to pieces. Although Xiang Nanxing also expected this, he still felt a little frustrated when he heard it in person. Fortunately, the other party immediately changed the conversation.

"The force part is only 'good' by the standards of ordinary people, and the gap with the host is too big, but the people who can overcome this are originally a minority. In terms of immediate adaptability and mental dexterity, your performance is almost at the level of an upper-intermediate host. The middle-aged man said, "There may be a little bit of experience, but this part of things needs to be accumulated after all, in short, if you just look at these, you can barely squeeze into the sequence of the official host." ”

"It's a pity I'd never do this." Xiang Nanxing said word by word.

The middle-aged man smiled. "I don't mean to recruit you in the slightest." He said, "This paragraph just now is just my personal interest, it's too willful, and it even disturbs people who are doing business, I'm sorry." ”

The second half of his sentence was obviously said to the other person present, and Xiang Nanxing also took this opportunity to turn his head and quickly observe the person standing by the door with his peripheral vision. This is a young man who looks less than thirty years old, and unlike the middle-aged man, he is only wearing a short-sleeved shirt, but he does not have the host's signature black suit. Xiang Nanxing remembered the staff he saw during the final war on the island, if he guessed correctly, this young man should be a staff member.

Except for pushing Xiang Nanxing when he first entered the door and closing the door again, no matter how the two of them fought just now, he always stood quietly by the door, not to mention doing something, not even a little murderous aura, it was as if he had disappeared. At this time, when the middle-aged man said it, he just nodded quietly, which was the meaning of "it's okay".

However, as soon as the two of them interacted, Xiang Nanxing found a small question. If the middle-aged man didn't open his eyes just now because he was adapting to the change in light, a minute has passed at this time, and normal people's eyes should have adapted and could have been opened. Besides, when he said sorry just now, it sounded sincere, but his eyes were still closed when he looked at the staff member - if he was sincere, he should at least look at the other person and talk.

Recalling the fight in the dark just now, Xiang Nanxing suddenly thought of a possibility.

Could it be that his eyes ......

He looked at the middle-aged man's closed eyes in surprise, hesitated for a moment, reached out and waved it silently and slowly in front of the other party. The staff behind him showed a look of wanting to say something, but it didn't stop him after all. On the contrary, the middle-aged man's brows furrowed. Obviously, Xiang Nanxing's movements were quiet enough, and his eyes never opened, but at this moment, he seemed to notice something, and showed a calm smile after a short accident.

"Did you find it?" He laughed, "Yes, I'm blind. ”

Xiang Nanxing stopped the movements of his hand in shock, his expression a little embarrassed.

"No surprise, your movements are indeed very light. But since I was a child, I have relied on hearing and touch to replace my eyes, and I am much more sensitive to air disturbances and wind sounds than ordinary people. He explained, "So, I have to say sorry to you for forcing you to fight me under such unfair conditions." ”

"I can't see it in the first place, so I have to arrange such an invisible environment......" Xiang Nanxing suddenly realized at this time.

"After all, everything was hearsay before, I can't watch the video, I can only listen to other people's stories, there will be some deviations, not to mention that a short time has passed since the island, who knows what kind of progress you will become." The middle-aged man said, "If it's too much stronger than I thought, I might not be able to control the proportions in the actual battle, and in the worst case, I might kill you by mistake." So I had to take a trick and create a situation that was obviously in my favor, so that I could have more confidence in controlling it. ”

Xiang Nanxing snorted, but couldn't refute it. Although these words sounded a bit sarcastic, what the other party said was right, the gap between the two sides was too big, even if the negative factors of sneak attacks and dark operations were deducted, Xiang Nanxing still had no chance.

So what he was interested in was what he had mentioned earlier.

"You specifically inquired about me?" He asked with great interest, "Not only have you inquired, but you also went to this kind of place to wait for me, and want to try my skills?" Have you ever wondered if I couldn't even get past the hotel lobby? ”

"In that case, it means that you are nothing more than that." The middle-aged man smiled, "But you really didn't disappoint me. For a moment, I could still see in you the shadows of those old people ten years ago. ”

"Ten years ago? Old friend? Xiang Nanxing frowned. This sentence sounded like it meant something, but before he could ask any more questions, the middle-aged man waved his hand and stopped the conversation in advance.

"It's been too long, and it's time for me to leave." As he spoke, he couldn't see clearly how his footsteps moved, and he walked past Xiang Nanxing like a ghost. The latter didn't react until he was pulled behind his back and turned his face in surprise.

He only saw the middle-aged man open the door and walk out of the room without looking back, taking away Xiang Nanxing's doubts that he hadn't asked yet, leaving him with a chic back. Xiang Nanxing was about to catch up, but at this moment, the staff member stepped forward and blocked between him and the door.

"Mr. Xiang, it's time to go."

It was then that he heard the young man speak for the first time, and there was a strange mechanical sense in his voice, as if even the voice was tightly controlled. Now, there's one more reason to join the game. Xiang Nanxing thought to himself.

He suddenly had a hunch that if he continued on this road, he might meet this blind middle-aged man again in the future, and next time, he might have the opportunity to dig out more information from his mouth.

But for now, let's focus on the present. He patted his face to refocus. As expected, most of the hotel is not a real destination, so you will probably need to be blindfolded when you move the venue......

Just as he was thinking back to the movies he had watched, he saw that the young man actually put his hand in his trouser pocket to get something. Just when he thought he would see something like a strip of black cloth, the other party stretched out his hand, and in the palm of his hand was a pair of windproof goggles.

"Isn't it usually blindfolded?" Xiang Nanxing was a little confused. These goggles have the feel of sunglasses, but they are transparent after all.

"Let's talk about it later." The young man replied lightly, and at the same time threw the goggles over, "Put this on first." ”

Seeing Xiang Nanxing take it, he looked at the time, and then walked to the window and looked out thoughtfully. Under Xiang Nanxing's gaze, he slowly reached out and pressed on the frame of the window, touched it left and right, and suddenly lifted it hard!

In order to prevent residents from falling, the windows on the upper floors can generally only be opened 45 degrees outward. With this hand, he removed the entire window, and Xiang Nanxing only felt that the strong wind on the upper floors was blowing in his face all of a sudden, and his eyes were almost unable to open, but the thing that surprised him the most was that he suddenly heard a noise like a propeller.

In front of him, a helicopter slowly descended from a higher place, eventually hovering a few meters out the window. The door to the cabin was fully open, and the entrance was facing this way, as if to welcome him.

"Jump over." The young man said, "If you don't fall to your death, I'll take you to the real rendezvous." There's a game out there where you can make your wish come true if you win. ”
