Thirty-nine, the sword qi is near
When Jian Huaizhen heard her words, he put down his hand and said: "Today's opponent is by no means a wasted person, the young man's kung fu is already a rare good hand in the rivers and lakes. ”
Nangong Jiuzhong hugged his fist at Jian Huaizhen and said, "Although Miss puts it down, Jiuzhong and his disciples will definitely be cautious and cautious, and they will never be brave and ruthless, delaying the top priority of protecting the holy driver." ”
"That's very good, it's only a few miles to the inn, if you can get through this pass safely, you can rest well tonight. It's just that the road ahead is unpredictable, and it has to be worrying. Jian Huaizhen suddenly sighed.
Nangong Jiuzhong opened his mouth and said: "Miss, please be forgiving, we will definitely be able to pass this level tonight." ”
Hearing Nangong Jiuzhong's consolation, Jian Huaizhen understood in her heart that Nangong Jiuzhong's words were also so that she didn't have to worry too much about this matter, and felt that she should not live up to her grandeur, so she smiled toothily, and then spoke: "I haven't seen each other for so many years, Jiuzhong is still so knowledgeable and empathetic. It's just that Mingfeng, she ......"
Thinking of this, such a good maid back then has now died with incense, and the two do not know each other, Jian Huaizhen is not sympathetic, and the corners of her eyes are even more tearful.
"Miss has won the award, Jiuzhong is still the same Jiuzhong, and Miss is still that Miss, this matter will never change in Jiuzhong. As for Mingfeng, the people are far away, the light is different, the people and ghosts are different, even if the young lady is sincere and sincere, she can't make Feng'er turn around, and there is no way to do this, the young lady must mourn and change, and must not hurt her own body. Nangong Jiuzhong said with relief.
Jian Huaizhen lowered his head and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said with relief: "Jiuzhong, you are really my good sister, Huaizhen can make friends with a sister like you in this life is a blessing that has been cultivated in several lifetimes." ”
Hearing Jian Huaizhen's words, Nangong Jiuzhong hurriedly said; "Miss is really serious, if you want to say so, Jiuzhong has the fate to meet Miss in this life, and being able to serve Miss is a blessing that has been cultivated for several lifetimes."
Hearing this, Jian Huaizhen said happily: "Okay, the enemy is now, don't talk about this, after tonight, after protecting Luan and returning to the Forbidden City smoothly, you and I will talk about the old days and say goodbye." ”
"Jiuju also has this intention, but it is according to Miss's orders." Nangong Jiuzhong quickly agreed.
Jian Huaizhen was very pleased and bowed slightly, and then changed his words and said: "This is very good, Jiuzhong, you first step down from the matter that was discussed, let the disciples have a good rest, and deal with the drama that may occur tonight." ”
Nangong Jiuzhong responded, and then walked away, and then summoned several people in charge under his command to give Jian Huaizhen's order.
There are quite a few talents under the confession door, and before half an hour, some people bury the pot to make rice, get firewood from the field, and wait for people to work hard, and soon the smoke will curl, and the rice will be fragrant.
The soldiers of the Jinyi Guard and the Imperial Forest Army did not expect that there were so many capable people under the confession gate, and in this place where there was no village or store, they made fragrant food fire, and reluctantly ate some dry food, and some hungry guards couldn't sit still, so they took the saber minister to the confession gate to ask for some food to wrap their stomachs.
The brothers under his hand trusted each other, and the saber minister had no choice, and he knew in his heart that tonight was not trivial, and there would be a fierce battle, and there was no need to be plain. If the brothers under his command can eat enough and have enough strength, they will be more sure of what will happen tonight, so that they can defeat those who want to be unfavorable to the emperor, so as to maintain the integrity of Luan's driving.
If the protection is not effective and the emperor is killed by thieves, the first person who will lose his head is himself who is responsible for escorting Luan to return to Beijing smoothly.
With this in mind, the saber minister felt that whether it was for the sake of his brothers or to keep his head and future, he had to ask for some food for his brothers to come back.
The saber minister was also shrewd, and after thinking about it, he decided to ask Jian Huaizhen in person, he knew in his heart that Nangong Jiuzhong was the former maid of the eldest princess, and he was respectful to Princess Huaizhen, and he would never disobey her.
Then as long as Jian Huaizhen sends a word, he will naturally be able to get food from the confession gate, and Nangong Jiuzhong will never refuse to give it.
This person's idea is really like a god, and after Jian Huaizhen listened to his pleading, he summoned Nangong Jiuzhong and informed him of the request of the saber minister.
Nangong Jiuzhong was also very happy, and immediately asked people to allocate more than ten large pots of food to send to the Royal Forest Army sergeants and a number of brocade guards who came with him.
Seeing this situation, the minister of the saber was deeply impressed and grateful.
In this way, today's Jinyi Guard and the soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army, who were originally working together with the disciples of the Confession Sect to fight the enemy, were all pleased, feeling that these sects on the rivers and lakes were not necessarily hostile to the imperial court, and those like the Confession Sect were in the same breath with the imperial court and took care of each other.
After eating and drinking happily, several people rested for a while, and the energy consumed by the morning drama gradually recovered, and the morale was boosted a lot.
Seeing this situation, Jian Huaizhen discussed it with Jiang Shaoheng, Nangong Jiuzhong and others, and decided to hurry on the way, making sure to cross this mountain and reach the next post station before it got dark.
As soon as the order was given, the disciples of the Confession Sect, as well as all the guards of the Jinyi Guard and the Imperial Forest Army, obeyed the order and followed Jian Huaizhen towards the mountain.
There are a lot of fallen leaves on this mountain road, which accumulate on the road, fluffy and soft, walking on the top, making a rustling sound, and there is no sound outside.
The group walked in a hurry, walked for half an hour, and did not see anything unusual, and the saber minister muttered in his heart: "Isn't this eldest princess always like a god, why didn't she even see a ghost halfway through, could it be that the boy and brother who were halfway through the road just said big things, but in fact, there was no such thing at all." ”
Jiang Shaoheng, who was walking in front, walked with his sword in his hand, stepping on the fallen leaves, but he didn't dare to let go of the sword handle at all.
Only after seeing that strange boy's sword-binding method, Jiang Shaoheng already knew that that person was definitely the only fierce opponent he had seen in his life.
In the world's martial arts, only fast is not broken, and no one can draw a sword faster than that son, because that person doesn't even have a scabbard.
I thought that no one in the world could shoot faster than that son.
Jiang Shaoheng understood that the opponent he met was only afraid that he was not under any master in the world.
What's more, the shocking methods of this person before leaving, inadvertently flicking his fingers and flicking his sword, reaching out to grab the handle, were all unpleasant, and his attitude was free.
Jiang Shaoheng thought to himself that if he could do it himself, but if he wanted to be as free and uninhibited as that person, he was afraid that he would not be able to do it for a while without a few pre-drills.
Thinking of this, Jiang Shaoheng's hand tightened, and he grasped the hilt of the sword more and more, and he was indeed quite excited in his heart.
The master is lonely, it is not easy to find an opponent who has a good fight with him, maybe he can make himself have a happy battle tonight, even if he is not defeated by the other party, it is also a blessing to die under the sword of the other party!
Jiang Shaoheng's eyes flashed with an inexplicable brilliance, he wanted to kill the other party and see a high and low in the way of the sword.
Jian Huaizhen saw all these situations in her eyes, and she was a little shocked in her heart, over the years, except for a few enemies, no one has been able to make Jiang Shaoheng's eyes emit such a shocking battle intent, maybe the martial arts of the young man who appeared in the middle of the road were really unfathomable, and even Jiang Shaoheng's heart, whose fame had been extinguished early and his desire was gradually extinguished, rekindled a raging fire in his heart.
This blazing heat is really a long time gone.
Turning a mountain bend, I suddenly saw a person leaning on the big bluestone beside the road.
Jian Huaizhen fixed his eyes and saw that it was the green-shirted homeless man he met halfway through.
The second son was holding a straw stick in his mouth, and when he saw that everyone had arrived, he threw away the straw stick in his mouth, stretched his waist lazily, and jumped down from the big green mountain, blocking everyone.
"Why are you again, why are you so repeatedly blocking my way?" The saber minister poked his head out and snorted.
Brother Gongzi laughed and said, "The avenue is facing the sky, and each one walks halfway." The roads of this world and the moonlight in the mountains are all gifts of creation, but you can walk, but I alone can't walk. ”
Not to be outdone, the Sabre Minister replied: "The road is like this, but people are not like it, do you know who you blocked today, and it will scare you to death if you say it." ”
"The road is the road, and the man is the man, and if the road is like this, what is the matter with the man. You take your Yangguan Road, I take my single-plank bridge, even the emperor Lao'er doesn't wait to care how the people on the road walk. Brother Gongzi seemed to be smiling, and responded casually intentionally or unintentionally.
"You, I really don't know what to do. You'll regret it when you lose your head! The saber minister naturally heard this person's Piri Yangqiu, and couldn't help but be a little angry.
The person blocking the road turned his head indifferently, and said with a smile: "My big head is still on my neck, but it's not whether some people's heads will grow on their necks after today." ”
Hearing this, the saber minister's face turned green with anger, and he waved his hand indiscriminately to make the brocade guards under his command and the guards of the Royal Forest Army rush over together, and immediately hacked this person to death under the sharp blade, and dismantled eight pieces to relieve his hatred.
"The situation is unknown, don't be impatient!" Jian Huaizhen whispered to the saber minister.
This sentence reminded the saber minister, he thought in his heart that this person just now clearly wanted to deliberately provoke himself, let himself lead people to rush over, I don't know what the purpose is, but the appearance is quite suspicious, if the eldest princess didn't stop herself, maybe Fang Cai really fell for this person's trick and led the team to rush over.
"The minister understands, please rest assured that the subordinates, the Jinyi Guard, and the soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army all obey the orders of the Imperial Princess." The saber minister said respectfully.
"That's right, that's right, but even if you don't rush over, we Lingxiao Pavilion don't want to let you go today." The man blocking the road suddenly raised his head and shouted.
It was too late, but it was too fast, and many people suddenly poured out from the side of the three roads, carrying weapons to kill the generals from all directions.
"The eldest princess, it turns out that this kid has been in ambush for a long time. How should we deal with it? The Saber Minister spoke to Jian Huaizhen with some horror.
Before Jian Huaizhen could reply, he saw that Jiang Shaoheng beside him had already lifted and rushed out, raised his sword out of its sheath, and stabbed it towards the man opposite.
The boy who stood in the way was not in a hurry, he raised his sword freely, only to hear a loud sound, the two swords intersected, buzzing, the sound was endless, the sword flowers flashed, the sword light Huo Huo, the two had already dismantled each other for five or six moves.
"Okay, kill this guy who has the audacity to ignore us. After he was captured, Lao Tzu was going to crush him to ashes. The Saber Minister cursed hatefully.
Jian Huaizhen saw that the son's brother, his body was smart, his swordsmanship was fast, and Jiang Shaoheng did not fall behind after more than ten moves, and he also admired this person's martial arts in his heart.
Jiang Shaoheng meets his opponent in chess, and he will meet a good talent, which is very happy.
I was eager to test how high this swordsmanship was, and I made up my mind that as soon as the swordsmanship changed, I didn't wait for the sword to be used old, a sword was as tight as a sword, and I was reluctant to give up, and I wanted to see how this person responded.
Seeing this, the man was not in a hurry, he stepped on the seven-star step, his wrist shook the sword obliquely, and his body was crooked, as if he wanted to fall, as if he had not fallen, and he actually used the sword move of the drunken eight immortals, which was able to avoid Jiang Shaoheng's several killing moves, but stabbed a sword from an incredible angle and stabbed Jiang Shaoheng's face.
Jiang Shaoheng might as well be so ingenious in the other party's swordsmanship, the sword moves in his hand are already old, just waiting to twist his body to avoid it, the sword trick is introduced, and he changes his move again, raising his sword and slashing obliquely.
This is a sword move that he used from his sword skills after his seclusion, and he has never used it on anyone.
The other party was shocked, his eyes showed a sense of sympathy, and he fell forward, which was able to avoid this move. Then he didn't look back, he just returned his sword and picked Jiang Shaoheng's wrist obliquely.
This kind of lose-lose style of play is simply incredible, if Jiang Shaoheng does not change his move, he will inevitably be able to hurt the opponent, but he can't avoid the opponent's oblique stabbing sword.
Jiang Shaoheng was helpless, and in order to protect himself, he had to change his tactics halfway.
The two of you go back and forth, and after fighting dozens of moves, they still don't distinguish between victory and defeat, and it is difficult to distinguish between the superior and the inferior.
The bigger Jiang Shaoheng became, the more doubts he felt in his heart, he didn't expect that such a good player would appear in the rivers and lakes during his years of seclusion. He knew in his heart that this person's swordsmanship was on par with his own, and no one could defeat the other party within five hundred moves.
"Ling Xiao Pavilion, this person must be Ling Xiao Gongzi. Shaoheng, you have to be careful. Jian Huaizhen saw that the two were fighting swords, and they were in danger, and suddenly thought of something, so he blurted out.
Hearing this, the swinger-looking man jumped out of the battle circle, squinted at Jian Huaizhen and said: "Good eyesight, this son has never walked on the rivers and lakes, although he is famous, he knows very few people, and he actually makes you break through in one word, which is good knowledge." Admire, admire, admire. ”
As soon as he saw that Ling Xiao Gongzi was trying to avoid it, Jiang Shaoheng also followed with his sword and guarded one, and then coldly asked Ling Xiao Gongzi: "Now that you are the head of Ling Xiao Pavilion, one of the four major forces in the rivers and lakes, you can be said to want wind and rain, but now you are here to assassinate the emperor, do you still want to seek a dynasty to usurp the throne and change the dynasty?" ”
Hearing Jiang Shaoheng's question, Ling Xiao Gongzi laughed and said: "The most annoying thing for this son is to deal with teaching affairs, and it will be boring to be the emperor's old son." To tell you the truth, giving Ben Gongzi a dragon chair to sit on is not as comfortable as a stone. ”
Jiang Shaoheng pointed to the high-rollers who had just rushed to him, and fought fiercely with the Jinyi guards of the imperial court, the soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army, and the disciples of the confession sect to a place where the high-rollers asked: "Since it is not for the sake of usurping the throne, why do you want to bring so many Jianghu heroes to ambush the emperor's return to the palace Luan Jia and intervene in the affairs of the imperial court." ”
"That's a good question, we are people in the rivers and lakes, and we shouldn't have intervened in the affairs of the imperial court. Although he had no intention of usurping the throne, he set up an ambush here today, but there is a little account to be calculated with the emperor Lao'er. Ling Xiao replied with a smile.
Jiang Shaoheng was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then asked, "One account, what account." ”
"Oh, it's about ......"
"My lord, this kid is ambushing us here, I'm afraid it's just to assassinate the emperor, don't talk nonsense, cut him down." Seeing that several of his brothers had fallen in a pool of blood, the saber minister mentioned that he would go straight to Ling Xiaogongzi, and raised his knife and slashed down towards the man's face.
Ling Xiao Gongzi waved his hand casually, and somehow the saber minister's knife actually slashed to the ground.
"Haha, this brother seems to be from a small farming family, and he is used to plowing the land, and he didn't even take advantage of it, okay, I'll meet you." Ling Xiao Gongzi deliberately mocked.
The saber minister didn't see how the other party made a move, and saw that his knife actually changed castration and slashed to the ground for no reason, and he was shocked in his heart.
Only then did he realize that he was by no means the opponent of the other party, and a chill suddenly appeared in his heart, so he wanted to retreat back.
Before he could take a step, he saw a flower in front of him, a light knife in his hand, and the knife actually disappeared.
He raised his eyes and saw Ling Xiao Gongzi looking at him with a smile, but his hand was pointing behind him.
Following Ling Xiaogongzi's gesture, he saw that his knife was actually inserted into the ground behind him, and the blade of the knife was submerged in the soil, leaving only a knife handle exposed.
The saber minister was horrified, and ran back with all his might, pulling out the knife that was stuck in the ground.
At this time, I saw Jian Huaizhen take out an object from his arms and throw it into the sky, only to see a dazzling red light, which seemed to be a special signal light.
When Ling Xiao Gongzi saw Jian Huaizhen's move, he was slightly stunned, and after a while, he didn't see any movement, and he was a little surprised.
After thinking about it, Prince Ling Xiao asked aloud: "Isn't there any backup for the eldest princess's move?" ”
Jian Huaizhen smiled and said, "Each other, I'm afraid that Ling Xiao Gongzi also has Olympic aid that hasn't shown up yet." ”
"The eldest princess is really powerful, in today's situation, it seems that it is not good for the old body to come out." I only heard a loud shout suddenly from the hill in the distance, full of breath, shocking people's hearts, and the people fighting in the field were shocked.
Before the end fell, everyone saw a flower, and another old woman went out in front of everyone.
Ling Xiao Gongzi hurriedly walked up to this person and saluted: "Mother, didn't you say that you can let the child deal with it first, why should your mother take action herself." ”
