Chapter 5: The Secret of Gongjin

In July of the year 422 of the Eltino calendar, the Jade Dragon Mountain of El Tieno

At first glance, seeing Kublai Khan appear, Gong Jin could not hide his shock, but when he saw the orc troops wearing soft armor and holding heavy weapons around him, he quickly organized the situation in his mind, and understood that the other party was most likely taking advantage of Jiang Zhong and others to act "together" as a cover, and when the eyes of the intelligence officers in Bailu Cave were all attracted by the surprise attack team, they didn't notice that the real big tiger was quietly sneaking up.

This is Al Tienor, the place where the White Deer Cave is the most powerful, and it is impossible to be completely silent, but if a leader has a careful plan, uses other events to divert the attention of the White Deer Cave, and leads his subordinates to take the opportunity to sneak in and attack the White Deer Cave by surprise, this kind of thing can still happen.

Merely...... Gong Jin is still a little skeptical, this matter is extremely difficult, and he can't do it himself, can Kublai Khan alone play with the White Deer Cave in his hands?

"The White Deer Cave is calling for wind and rain in Al Tieno, so majestic, but the world is no more than a rational word, even if there is a strong man to support it, there is no power in the world that can really cover the sky with one hand, and the light will eventually shine through the cracks in the clouds. ”

Kublai Khan shook his hand, shook off the blood from the blade, and put the thick-backed long knife back into the scabbard at his waist.

"If you think that Bailu Cave can do anything arbitrarily, then you can't help but underestimate the heroes of the world, and you can't afford to look down on our martial arts men. The Yuanqi Cave is a very important matter, it is a common asset of the people of the Wind Continent, not a tool for the White Deer Cave to control the situation, tonight all the people have gathered around the Jade Dragon Mountain, and it is guaranteed to give the White Deer Cave a surprise that will be unforgettable for a thousand years. ”

Gong Jin saw Kublai Khan giving orders, dispatching troops, orderly and fast, better than himself in the past, he couldn't help but admire himself in his heart, knowing that it was the hegemonic temperament he lacked, and when he heard him say that people from all walks of life came to Yulong Mountain, it was obvious that there were still a lot of people used, so he didn't know who came.

"Gong Jin, let's not waste time, you are most familiar with the layout and style of Bailu Cave, and my son-in-law and I will be dispatched by you today, so that there will be no confusion in command. ”

Nicknamed "Gong Jin", Kublai Khan's attitude is as close as having been friends for many years, and the bearing he shows makes Gong Jin sigh secretly. While this is indeed the best thing to do at hand, what leader would leave his troops at the hands of strangers?

"You don't have to worry about that, we're not strangers! you marry my sister, and you're my sister-in-law. ”

Kublai Khan smiled and turned his head sideways, and shouted to his subordinates around him, "Sons, are you willing to give your surname to this man, and to Xiao Qiao's husband?"

A question was answered, and the more than a thousand orcs who surrounded it shouted in unison.

"I am willing to die for Princess Xiao Qiao!"

The thunderous roar showed their emotional excitement, and it also represented Xiao Qiao's position in their hearts, and from the roar of hidden anger, Gong Jin seemed to be able to sense how angry and unwilling these orcs who regarded her as a sister and relative were when the news of Xiao Qiao's exile by the Oniyi people reached Wu Lian.

Looking around, he came into contact with the eyes of every pair of orcs, and found that they were all so sincere, so eager to do something to repay, Gong Jin was suddenly moved, just from the words "Princess Xiao Qiao", you can imagine how Xiao Qiao took care of these orcs in Wulian back then, and how he was loved by them.

It is not impossible to love beyond ethnicity and position...... You've done it, Little Joe, you've really done it...... Look at you fellow orcs, they respect and love you so much, your dreams and ideals have come true in them!

Gong Jin is not a very enthusiastic person, but he is indifferent, but at this time he is happy with the attitude of the orcs. It may seem strange to explain, but he does feel that it seems to be an honor to be the husband of Princess Xiao Qiao.

But after being moved, Gong Jin's reason found that something was not good, these orcs were too emotional, the roar just now was like a thunderbolt that shook the sky, resounding all over the night sky, how could the 100,000 Guiyi army on Jade Dragon Mountain not notice it? If it was besieged by a joint army of 100,000 troops, there were only a thousand people here, and it was too late to escape, how could they do anything?

Just as this worry was about to be exited, a thunderous explosion that was louder than the roar and shouting in unison just now, along with countless screams and neighings of people and horses, came from the north of Yulong Mountain, and I saw a blood-red mushroom-like flame dozens of feet high rising into the sky, illuminating the entire night, followed by more than a dozen explosions of the same scale, shaking the entire Yulong Mountain to the ground and flying sand all over the sky.

"Boom~~~Boom!Boom!Boom!Boom!"

A series of fires rushed to the sky, and the scorching air flow came to his face, Gongjin didn't need to ask to know that the location of these more than ten explosions must be where the military camp of the Guiyi clan was located, to such an explosion, whether they were on alert or asleep, the Guiyi people must have suffered heavy casualties, no wonder Kublai Khan had no fear, it turned out that he had already laid such a powerful ambush, but which people and horses were doing this kind of backing?

"Brother Kublai Khan, which hero is ...... outside?"

"Why do you care? Gong Jin, a terrorist senior I know newly, said: "Heroes of the world...... It's a creature that never dies. ”

Kublai Khan said, looking up and laughing as if he was very happy, even Gong Jin could feel his determination to do a big job, and just wanted to speak to him, but a red shadow flashed out of the corner of his eye, and he immediately remembered the most dangerous child of the White Deer Cave in the audience.

Yan Ning's figure flashed and disappeared, turning into a red flash of electricity, and in a blink of an eye, he attacked in front of Kublai Khan, and his palm was spitting suddenly, and his strength was like thunder, and he came straight through Wuyue, trying to see how much ability this man who had newly obtained the title of martial arts bully.

Since Kublai Khan appeared, he has been acting domineering and confident, and he doesn't seem to take others in his eyes, Yan Ning is so famous for him, he wanted to give it a try, and saw that he even put the big knife into the scabbard, thinking that martial arts knife refining is the first heavy and domineering and mighty, let his sword skills be refined, and there will always be gaps in the sheath and into the sheath, which is the best opportunity to test.

With a heavy palm on the head, Kublai Khan's laughter was still piercing, but the essence light in his hand suddenly burst out, and in an instant, the snow was brighter than a million crystals, and the scabbard was slashed, like a meteor that slashed towards the sky.

It was only at this time that Gong Jin and Yan Ning realized the powerful means of this giant man, since he appeared, he has been using all kinds of means to lure people to make a move, and he deliberately waited for the move, and the technique he used was actually a kind of side-door knife drawing technique that spread overseas, with the explosive power when the knife was drawn to multiply the speed, instantly shattered and sheathed, pushing the lethality to the peak, and killing the enemy with the strongest and strongest.

Yan Ning shot to no avail, but strayed into the enemy's killing intent trap, the heart was calm, both hands turned a turn, to the blade of the knife slashed down, to shoot the real, but was surprised to find that the knife on the sharp qi is unusually strong, really want to empty hands to grab the white blade, I am afraid that the palms of a real, will be cut out immediately to see the bone scars, the moment shocked out of a cold sweat, busy in the rapid change of palm momentum, a style of "spring thunder spit", both palms to do their best, from the side of the crooked blade trend, using this gap, their own high-speed retreat, dodge the sharp edge.

The light work of the White Deer Cave is not the same as idleness, and Yan Ning asked himself that he had retreated extremely quickly, and he should have avoided the range of the enemy's sword qi, how did he know that the two strands of hair fell down, followed by a slight stabbing pain in the right shoulder and wrist, and the armor could not completely resist the knife momentum, and he was traumatized, and his heart couldn't help but be surprised.

"Boom!"

Another explosion was very close to everyone, and the dust and mud in the sky were sprinkled in the eruption of flames, but everyone seemed to be unaware, only looking at the seven-foot knife marks cut by Kublai Khan on the ground, the terrible marks that cracked the ground, representing the power of the sword, and once again confirming the power of the new master of the Medici family.

"The blade flashed, and the enemy was injured everywhere...... The unique soft knife of the Wang Zi family, the martial arts knife method is really famous. ”

Yan Ning pointed at the acupoints with his backhand, stopped the bleeding from his shoulders, neck and wrists, and lightly pointed out the enemy's knife skills, and also mocked the problem of the master of the Medici family using the Wang family's knife skills. However, Yan Ning herself had to admit that even if it was the personal envoy of the current master of the Wangzi family, he might not be able to send out four sword qi with one blow and hurt himself.

"The subtlety of the martial arts sword technique is not only like this, today it is said that the frog at the bottom of the well in the White Deer Cave will open his eyes and know that you are not the only one who can dominate the martial arts. ”

Kublai Khan's smile was incomparably heroic, he took a big step, and the sword qi that shrouded the whole body swept the wind and sand on the ground, rolling around, and with the action of raising the knife and stepping, the whole person was like a nine-day Dapeng that was about to fly, and the momentum was domineering and amazing, and it was so delicate that it was too delicate to find a gap.

"Brother Kublai Khan, please leave this battle to me, your sons and daughters are only under your command, and the efficiency is the best, and the vitality cave of Yulong Mountain must enter from this entrance, and everything will be handed over to you. ”

Gong Jin's words stopped the battle, and Kublai Khan gave an order, and the orc team quickly followed him into the cave on the mountain wall. But before Kublai Khan led the crowd away, he patted Gongjin on the shoulder, quietly signaled, and told him that this woman is not weak, the previous knife, Kublai Khan has been accumulating strength for a long time, and he wanted to kill him with a knife, who knew that she slapped her palm lightly and heavily, not only unloading the fatal knife slash, but also shocked Kublai Khan's right arm sore, admiring the strength of the opponent's palm.

Those who were enough to interfere with the battle all left, and returned to the situation of two old friends facing each other, and without trying to say anything more, they just drew their swords and made actual psychological contact through the battle.

This is not the first time the two of them have fought each other, but in the previous martial arts trial, the martial arts of the two were similar, and it was difficult to distinguish the exact winner, but this time it was different, Yan Ning's martial arts seemed to have improved by leaps and bounds in the past two and a half years.

(...... No possibility, I have never slackened in the past two years, if it is estimated according to the normal procedure, it is impossible for Yan Ning to make such progress, there must be some external assistance...... )

Although Gong Jin's swordsmanship is not as domineering as Kublai Khan, but the royal martial arts of the White Deer Cave, the longer the battle, the more he can give full play to his strengths.

That set of crimson evil armor is Xiao Qiao's original fraternity holy armor, but after getting out of the taming and mastery of the original owner, this set of artifacts from the hands of the famous craftsman of the demon clan has nothing to do with the word sacred, and has changed back to the true face of the demon and evil, which not only multiplied the resistance of the condensation, but also made her strength grow almost exponentially.

(The Fraternity Sacred Armor only increases the resistance, and the Equal Divine Hammer has the effect of multiplying the attack power, so it must be modified and hidden somewhere in this armor, so be especially careful...... )

Gong Jin fought 120,000 points of spirit, although he has been falling behind, but he gave up all opportunities to attack, and completely defended with the three swords that reached the sky, although Yan Ning will also make it, but he can't do anything about this set of wonderful swordsmanship that Lu You is famous for, let her attack in a series like angry thunder, but Gong Jin shook his hand and swung it, rolling the long sword into a snowy rainbow light, his feet seemed to be rooted, firmly stepped on the ground, and did not move a step.

"Yan Ning, your current appearance is not as good-looking as in the past, this kind of weird dress, Xiao Qiao must be very disappointed when he sees it. ”

Concentrate on defense, Gong Jin has a lot of room to fight another psychological war. Tonight's incident was controlled by the White Deer Cave, and Yan Ning must know a lot of inside information, now that the old man is dead, as long as he can win over the old man and then clean up the future old man, the master can't leave the Houshan Ice Cave for a long time, and the matter can be said to be solved.

"You said before that helping Bailu Cave will not end well, why do you still have to cooperate with them?

When Gong Jin asked this sentence quietly, Yan Ning couldn't help but feel a trace of bitterness in her heart, if this man didn't know himself so well, it would be good, the long-term cooperation in the past made him too familiar with each other's moods, that kind of tacit understanding allows two people to understand each other's meaning as long as they look at each other and make a move, even those things that want to hide can't be hidden.

"At that time, Little Joe and I had no choice but to do that, but to be fair, we did have something to be sorry for, especially my fault. If you didn't stay in the Guiyi army, Xiao Qiao would definitely refuse to leave and let you make such a sacrifice, I'm sorry for you, but I did think at the time that the Guiyi people were very supportive of you, and it shouldn't be too bad for you to become the leader of the coalition army, and with you, you can pass on Xiao Qiao's dreams and efforts......"

"You're wrong, dreams only make sense when they are shared together, and once dreams become owned, all that remains is nightmares!"

With a heavy palm, Yan Ning seemed to be provoked, and his voice suddenly raised a lot, adding a bit of ruthlessness to his palm.

"At first, I also wanted you to be happy, so I took over this leadership job......"

But the position of a leader is not something that can be taken if you want to, nor is it that you can do everything well as long as you are decisive and arrogant enough. Soon after taking the position, Yan Ning quickly discovered her predicament, facing the fierce ethnic conflict within the coalition forces, and the advance of Eltino and the White Deer Cave, she only needed to give an order, which would cause more problems.

The unparalleled talent in the martial arts has no way to help her, and there is no one around who can share her joy, and while the pressure on her shoulders is getting heavier and heavier, the Baizi family has naturally withdrawn all support. Problems with logistics and food were imminent, but the cadres who inherited Xiao Qiao's ideals resolutely opposed plunder, and while defending righteousness, they were completely blind to the food pressure they were about to face.

"I'm not you, I'm not Xiao Qiao, I don't have her great mind and persistence, and I don't have your ability to command the army, I'm just a slaughterer with high enough martial arts, those guys are noisy in front of me, I just want to kill them all!"

At the beginning, I could still bear it, and forcibly suppressed it with my surname, telling myself that I couldn't repeat the mistakes of the past and deviate from the path of light that I had so hard to go. But when I woke up from my dream every night, I first stood in a sea of blood, my expression was cold and ferocious like a beast, and then the surrounding picture turned into a deep darkness, and I couldn't see anything, just like my past and future destiny, then I knew that everything should have a choice.

"So I expelled all the sober-minded people, and the remaining group of crazy people thought about death all day long, since they were bent on destroying themselves, I will destroy them! The White Deer Cave has been arranged, they will all be wiped out here tonight, from now on, there will be no more ghosts, and there will be no more problems with the ghosts and other races!"

"But...... Rou Ning, those who are going to die...... It's a compatriot who bleeds the same blood as you!"

Gong Jin whispered a word, but it seemed to provoke the most pain in Yan Ning's heart. When the palm wind that blew his face and hurt forced his breath to be uncomfortable, Gong Jin was shocked to realize that Yan Ning might still have reservations before, and he didn't go all out.

"Compatriots! These are the compatriots, who annihilated my mother, so that I had to be born in the courtyard, and let me climb all the way up in that environment, what did these compatriots give me?

The strength of Yan Ning's palm increased suddenly, and the entire lethality increased like a mountain and a sea, and when a short hammer appeared in Yan Ning's hand, the monstrous evil qi was like a frenzy of the angry sea, and the nearby air was instantly drained away, freezing cold, forcing Gong Jin to even breathe, he knew that he couldn't take this blow.

The Heavenly Divine Sword is known as the world's first defensive move, but it is not really perfect, if the difference in strength between the two sides is too large, and it is overwhelmed by the enemy's force, no matter how good the defensive move is, it will be broken, this Lu You has already experienced the battle of Lone Peak, and warned the disciple that at this moment, as soon as Gong Jin saw the momentum of Yan Ning, he knew that it was difficult for him to hold this blow.

Yan Ning's blow was several times stronger than his own, and if there was no accident, he would be shattered by the Wuyue Divine Thunder that erupted from the Equality Divine Hammer in a short period of time after contacting this blow. If you are not capable of the enemy, you can only take advantage of it, but how should you take advantage of it? Every trick and style you have learned in your life, what set of martial arts can make you escape?

The White Deer Cave swordsmanship with one move after another flashed in Gong Jin's mind, and the things recorded in those secret notes became useless garbage at this time. When the thoughts in his head are out of control, Gong Jin instead remembers some small things that have long been forgotten.

It was when he first started, and the master personally instructed him to re-practice the ancient saint twelve swords at the entrance of the White Deer Cave. There are many other pictures like this, all of which are memories of the master correcting his mistakes in swordsmanship and urging him to practice swordsmanship hard, the most profound is that in a certain year, the master went out with a blurred image, and wanted to try out the swordsmanship he knew one by one, but in the process of his own practice, he stood aside, faintly picked up a falling bayberry from the snow, stared silently, and seemed to recall something.

※※※

"Your sword skills are already quite profound, and it stands to reason that you should be happy as a teacher, but ...... Gongjin, you must remember that in the past, I taught you to use the sword to have righteous thoughts, but I didn't tell you that the sword holder is easy to be too decisive, if the sword is like the world, even if you are upright all your life, there must be a lot of regrets, so you have to understand more of the truth of rigidity and softness......"

After saying a few words, the master broke off the snow plum branch, and tried to himself the truth of the Tai Chi sword, the plum branch swung out, sticking to the snowflakes, and the snowflakes increased in turn, forming a soft and strong snow whip, rigid and soft and uncertain, swaying vertically and horizontally, and there was no half snowflake within a radius of ten zhang that could land.

※※※

(Energetic and ...... The sword is inexhaustible, and the middle is soft...... )

Thinking of the strange sword that looks like a sword and not a sword, if a whip is not a whip, Gong Jin faintly understood, but he couldn't hand over the sword, the momentum of Yan Ning's onslaught was too strong, the offensive was almost perfect, there was no flaw to be found, if you want to force a counterattack, at most you will lose both.

The long sword in Gong Jin's hand was clenched again, ready to go, and his whole heart was completely calm, and the surging waves were like strong winds blowing snow, making him find a flaw in this vermilion evil qi in the sky.

(That's ...... )

A string of crystal brilliance, the snow was brilliant and brilliant, and it looked extremely shining in the vermilion evil qi in the sky, although it was small, but it made a slight gap in this red killing array, and there was a flaw that Gong Jin was looking for.

"Medium!"

Gong Jin did not hesitate to make a move, with his latest comprehension of the sword, Yan Jin as a whip, when colliding with the surging enemy, an incredible change occurred, skillfully swinging the direction of the Equality Divine Hammer, and at the same time drawing a deep blood mark on Yan Ning's hand, so that this powerful and ruthless Shen Lei collapsed without attacking, and the strength of the reverse walk had nowhere to vent, and the wrist bone burst when he landed.

"You've lost, give up!"

With a sword gaining momentum, Gong Jin's change of tactics was as fast as lightning, like a poisonous snake rushing up, stopping at Yan Ning's throat, firmly grasping the victory of this battle. But at the moment when the long sword touched his skin, Gong Jin's movements paused, and he understood what the flaw in his broken move was.

It was a crystal teardrop!

When the Equality God hammered down, the person who held it had tears unconsciously, and because of the confusion, there were also flaws in the moves, and only then did Gong Jin find an opportunity to crack the already chaotic evil red killing array with one move.

Seeing the string of tears flowing down his pale cheeks, Gong Jin didn't have the slightest hope of fighting, and put his sword back into its sheath without thinking. He didn't know Kublai Khan's sword drawing technique, if Yan Ning grasped the close shot, he would definitely suffer a big loss, but he was convinced that she would not make another move, and this battle was really over.

"You say...... The dream you have alone is a nightmare, and now I have broken the nightmare for you, you are free from now on, you don't have to carry anything for anyone, and don't get involved with the White Deer Cave anymore, go and live your own life!"

From the moment she was defeated and injured, Yan Ning seemed to have lost her soul, and she stood there with blank eyes and confusion, unresponsive to Gong Jin's words. The red blood hair is still fluttering, but the evil aura that envelops the whole body is gone, and it seems lonely and helpless, just like the lonely woman in white clothes back then.

Gong Jin was worried about the situation on Kublai Khan's side, turned around and prepared to leave, but a very soft whisper came from behind him.

"Wait!"

Gong Jin heard Yan Ning's words and stopped, but he didn't know what Yan Ning would say.

"Gong Jin, the affairs of the Guiyi Clan, I believe that you have a deep understanding of them for many years. The Ghost Yi Clan is born from a mixture of humans and demons, two different bloodlines, often rejected in the same body, causing the next generation to mutate, so the Ghost Yi Clan has a high chance of strange people appearing, some are extremely talented in martial arts, and some are getting unusual abilities......"

Gong Jin knew about it, but he didn't know what this matter had to do with it now, why Yan Ning wanted to mention it at this time.

"You know I'm a ghost, but there's something you've probably never noticed, right? I inherited some kind of ability from the ghost's bloodline...... I can read minds. When I touch someone's lips, I can read his mind, his consciousness...... So I knew Xiao Qiao's identity for a long time, and I knew what the problem would be with using the three artifacts, and I also knew ......"

Yan Ning's peculiar preference that is not flattering is now explained, but it is not just Xiao Qiao who has kissed Yan Ning......

Thinking of something, Gong Jin's body shook violently, turned around sharply, and looked back at Yan Ning with an indifferent expression behind him.

"So...... Gong Jin, you are such a hypocrite!"

The three words were extremely heavy, and they hit Gong Jin's heart hard, and it didn't feel good, but he couldn't say anything, just looked at Yan Ning with a stern expression, and silently accepted the three words of accusation.
