Chapter Eighty-Three: A Delaying Tactic
Cui Ming saw the wind and was about to walk forward, and said, "Hey, turn back, this road is a dead end." ”
Feng put the katana back into his waist and asked, "How do you know?" (Is a katana a sword or a sword?) If it's a sword, why is it called swordsmanship, kendo, and swordsmanship? )
"Because of the traces." Cui Ming pointed to the ground and said: "There are many rocks on the top of the mountain, and after the wind and rain, they are blown by the strong wind and fall to all sides, and most of them are scattered small stones, like dust. Looking at this road, the dust in the center and on both sides is exactly the same, indicating that no one has walked on this road for a long time. The road that some people have walked is because there are many caravans and many cargo belts, and the canyon cracks are narrow in some places, so they must only take the middle of the road. As long as we find the dust in the middle and the different roads on both sides, this is the way we get out of the Grand Canyon. ”
Feng praised: "Not bad, yes, I didn't ask for advice." ”
"Cui Ming."
"Fortunately." The wind nodded.
Mi Xiaonan finally couldn't help it and asked, "Cui Ming......"
"He shouldn't be a murderer." Cui Ming replied.
"Why?" Feng and Mi Xiaonan asked in unison.
"Simple, why kill the teacher? Restricted freedom? Scolded? No. The motive is to steal the treasured demon knife Muramasa. Where are the weapons? Looking at the wind sword technique again, the sneak attack is not strong, for example, he walked behind his master, and then used the wind sword technique to hack the master to death, it is better to stab him directly with a short knife. The Sword of the Wind is a fighting technique, not an assassination technique, a powerful means of attack in combat, and suddenly changes its moves when attacking and defending are converted, and the defense becomes an offense. The defensive is to prepare for the offensive. Cui Ming asked, "Is that right?" ”
Feng nodded: "Yes, entangle, trap the enemy, kill him." How can you tell? ”
"Because you didn't run, it means that you know you can't run Xiao Nan. People who are not speed-type and do not have assassin abilities such as stealth, the Sword of the Wind will not be an assassin sword. Cui Ming said: "So I personally guess that if you want to plot against your master, you won't use the Wind Sword Technique." If you use the Sword of the Wind technique, your master will definitely have the time and opportunity to resist. The second point, where is the Demon Knife Village? The demon knife you worked so hard to get, not only did you not cultivate, but you also didn't carry it with you? So I suspect that you are a change system, using special means to transform physical weapons into illusion, or absorbing the demonic energy of the demon sword and strengthening your katana. ”
Cui Ming continued: "Of course, there are many possibilities, and it may be that you killed them. Anyway, it's a fact that you killed your junior brother. It also proves that you don't have too many means of escape before you were caught up by your junior brother. I wonder, why did you kill your junior brother? ”
"We are dueling." Feng closed his eyes and remembered the situation at that time, and the junior brother drew his sword and sent a duel to himself. It's like a knight duel and throwing a glove in the face. The life-and-death battle between warriors, it seems that there is no need for a reason to kill the teacher at all. Feng remembers that the junior brother said, let me see the Wind Sword Technique, and I will know if it was the master you killed, so come with all your strength. Unlike fighting with others, dueling with junior brother is a move, brewing, preparing, looking for flaws, and then the two of them impacted, staggered by, the wind blocked the fatal blow of the junior brother with the edge of the knife, and the handle of the junior brother only blocked the knife, not the wind. The junior brother said temporarily, you are not a murderer, because you do not use a knife to kill people, but the wind, and the murderer uses a knife. It's hard for outsiders to understand, but the wind does. Wind is a kind of realm, although the real murderer knows the shape of the wind sword, but he does not know the god of the wind sword.
"Let's go." Cui Ming got on the horse, Mi Xiaonan glanced at the wind and jumped on the horse, Beiyue and Cui Ming walked side by side, and the wind slowly followed behind, pulling away a long distance. It seems to be vigilant against Cui Ming's sneak attack, and it seems to be to avoid Cui Ming and them suspecting that they will sneak attack. Cui Ming said a word, which almost made Beiyue laugh, Cui Ming said: "Actually, his gourd is empty." ”
Beiyue couldn't help but look back at the wind, the wind was drinking coolly, he obviously heard Cui Ming's words, and was embarrassed to freeze on the spot. Then he insisted on taking a sip of air and hung the wine gourd back on his waist freely. There is another purpose for pulling away by yourself, can you get some wine from the corpse of the horse bandit...... Don't say it's good to break it? I hate this guy so much.
Playing horses and jogging, the wind really turned around to get the wine, anyway, it was seen through, the face can be dispensed with, the wine is more important. Mi Xiaonan has been standing on the horse's head to look at him, and asked, "Cui Ming, are you sure he is not a murderer?" ”
"Xiao Nan, I'm not sure, I'm half speculation, half nonsense." Cui Ming said: "There are two possibilities, the first one is that he is a murderer and a villain, in this case, we will fight three to one, he will keep an eye on you and me, and we must be in danger of dying with him." The second possibility is that he is not a murderer, and he is forced to fight with us in desperation, then we will not be in danger, he will not be ruthless, because he is not a bad person, so he must have guilt for his junior brother in his heart. Maybe you'll show off your swordsmanship or something...... Well, all of the above is speculation. I just saw him coming down with a sword, and I knew that he was more difficult to deal with than Xiao Nan thought. ”
Beiyue asked, "And then?" ”
"Then it doesn't matter if he's a murderer or not, as long as Xiao Nan thinks he's a murderer, it's enough." Cui Ming said: "He is alone, it seems that he is also going to West Lake City, there is Xiao Nan in West Lake City, you have a friend, when the time comes, make a phone call, in terms of his escape level, I think four to one, not a big problem." West Lake City can be seen as a lonely city, west to Twilight City, east across the canyon to Shuangqiao City, if you have the heart to chase him, he can't run away. Xiao Nan, see for yourself, when you get to West Lake City, do you call the brothers to turn him, or believe to let him go. ”
Mi Xiaonan said: "Actually, the friend I want to visit may be able to defeat the wind." But...... This is very contrary to the spirit of the warrior. ”
"Shit, you're a ninja, what is a ninja? On Sakura Island, where the ninja profession is underground, they assassinate enemies by poisoning, ambushing, etc., while also infiltrating enemy barracks to steal information. You are a ninja who does not position yourself well, and you have to carry the sword of a samurai, can I despise you? ”
Mi Xiaonan thought for a while, and asked for help to look at Beiyue: "What he said makes sense, I was speechless." ”
Beiyue made an understanding expression, Cui Ming's interests and position said, often so that Beiyue could not refute, Beiyue said: "Cui Ming, you think too much, in fact, I can defeat him alone." Beiyue rarely speaks like this, and if she dares to say this, she is confident. The world of cultivators is like this, everyone always has weaknesses, and it is difficult to be perfect, and Beiyue is a person who can restrain the wind, which Beiyue has in his heart after watching the wind twice,
Cui Ming looked at Mi Xiaonan: "Brother Xiaonan, now you have the final say, you say something, we will immediately turn around and be him." "Bursting with confidence, Beiyue, who never boasts, said this, Cui Ming immediately agreed to turn back. Anyway, right or wrong is Mi Xiaonan's business.
Mi Xiaonan shook his head: "I also forgot one thing on impulse." ”
"What's the matter?"
"Feng's junior sister once wrote to the Alliance, asking for the revocation of the wanted warrant for Feng, not because she believed in Feng, but because she wanted to kill Feng herself."
Cui Ming suddenly said: "No wonder the wanted criminal, who has no means of escaping, is still hanging out for a year or two." ”
