Chapter 26: Parting

Yunmen Mountain is not a big mountain, but its circle is about ten miles, and when Shangguan Xiu finishes three laps and returns to the top of the mountain, the person can no longer stand up, lying on the ground, only gasping for breath.

"Give you a stick of incense to rest, after a stick of incense, we will start to practice the spirit martial arts skill - cross slash, and then we will have to practice martial arts, you have lost enough time today. ”

Hua Die walked around Shangguan Xiu, who fell to the ground, and let out a few disapproving snorts in her mouth.

Shangguan Xiu was so tired that he didn't have the strength to speak, and the stone under him was wet with sweat from him for a while.

Hua Die stood beside Shangguan Xiu, looked down at him, and said expressionlessly: "If you think you are a dog, then you can continue to lie on the ground, if you feel that you are still a man, stand up for me immediately!"

Shangguan Xiu raised her head with difficulty, looking at Hua Die, who was holding her shoulders with a look of disdain, her figure was soft and weak, and her appearance was also beautiful, but Shangguan Xiu had to admit that Hua Butterfly had a very good ability to stimulate people.

He gritted his teeth, braced his arms on his body, and slowly stood up from the ground with all the strength he could to feed.

The moment he got up, he felt like the world was spinning, and everything in the world seemed to be racing wildly around him.

"While you're resting now, tell me about your attendance at the rally last night. ”

Shangguan Xiu exhaled a breath of turbidity and said while gasping violently: "Last night, there were at least forty to fifty people missing from the rally, or more. ”

"Why is this happening?" Butterfly asked.

"I guess I'm scared of you. Shangguan Xiu swallowed his saliva, staggered to a stone, sat down, and said, "The night before yesterday, you revealed your identity at the rally, and there must be many students who suspected that the Duwei Mansion had already targeted them and did not dare to come to the rally again. ”

"So last night there were 15 or 60 people at the rally. ”

"Yes. ”

"Hmph!" Butterfly snorted coldly and asked again, "Is there anything else?"

"The place of the meeting was changed, from the academy to a private house. ”

"What's the house number?"

"Yanfu Street, Tai'an Lane, one mile and two first. ”

"Not bad. Butterfly nodded and asked, "Is there anything else?"

"Future rallies were no longer by invitation, and the organizers gave each person a badge. As he spoke, Shangguan Xiu reached into his arms, took out the badge, put it on his finger, and flicked it towards Hua Die.

The latter raised his hand, caught the badge, looked down twice, laughed disappreliably, threw the badge back to Shangguan Xiu, and said with a sneer: "Hmph, these students, do you think that the rebellion is playing at home?"

Shangguan Xiu shrugged and did not answer.

Butterfly asked again, "Nothing else?"

Shangguan Xiu shook his head and said, "No." ”

"Hmm. Butterfly nodded, thoughtful.

The time of a stick of incense passed quickly. Hua Die took a deep breath, cheered up, first taught Shangguan Xiu to practice spiritual martial arts skills, and then asked him to practice the Eighteen Swords of the Wind that he taught him yesterday, pointing out several irregularities in him, and then Hua Die taught him another set of knife techniques, the Soul Breaking Knife.

Shangguan Xiu didn't practice for a while, and Hua Die, who was watching from the sidelines, suddenly drew his knife to greet him, and while Shangguan Xiu took out his knife, he shouted in a deep voice: "It's too slow, it's too slow, it's too slow, it's fast, how can you kill and injure your opponent with such a slow knife speed? Hurry up! Faster!"

Under the rush of Hua Butterfly and the urging of a series of cannons, Shangguan Xiu used twelve points of strength to face the battle.

"Slow!Faster!Where's your strength?!"

"Hurry, hurry!"

Under the sparring of Hua Die, Shangguan Xiu's potential was also forced out, and the knife became faster and faster. The two practiced against each other for about half an hour, and even saw beads of sweat on Hua Die's head, she jumped out of the circle and said to Shangguan Xiu: "You have to remember, whether it is practicing knives, swords, guns, or sticks, in the final analysis, it is just one word, fast! As long as your moves are fast enough, even if you don't use any moves, you can take the head of the enemy's neck with one blow." ”

Shangguan Xiu listened carefully, and at the same time felt that today's flower butterfly was different from yesterday, and he was very anxious about his teaching.

She put the knife into the sheath, walked up to Shangguan Xiu, and said, "Okay, let's practice here today." ”

Shangguan Xiu raised his eyes to look at the sky and reminded: "Hua Die, the time has not yet come!"

"I'm leaving Beijing today on a mission, and I can't teach you again in the near future, but you can't neglect to practice yourself, and everything is still done according to the rules I set. ”

It turned out that Hua Butterfly was going to carry out a mission, no wonder she was in such a hurry to teach today, as if it was the last day to teach herself. Thinking about it, Shangguan Xiu's heart was shocked, and he hurriedly asked, "Hua Die, where are you going to carry out the mission?"

Hua Die said with a cold face: "This is a secret, you don't have to know." When I come back, I will check whether your physical fitness and martial arts have improved, don't think that you can be lazy during my absence, once I see that you have not made any progress, I will not spare you. ”

Shangguan Xiu couldn't listen to this, he asked with concern, "Is it a very dangerous mission?"

Seeing his nervous look, Hua Die sneered and laughed, and said nonchalantly: "Danger is everywhere, and the duty of the Duwei Mansion is to deal with danger!"

"I can go with you!" Shangguan Xiu said without thinking.

"You?" Hua Die chuckled and said, "You better practice your martial arts well, otherwise, you can only be a drag oil bottle." ”

As she spoke, she raised her head, looked at the night sky, and said, "I have been walking nearly an hour late, and if I don't leave, I will be thrown away by the angry claws." ”

She smiled at Shangguan Xiu and walked past him.

I won't be your oil bottle!" Shangguan Xiu turned around and called, "Flower Butterfly!"

Butterfly stopped and looked back at him in bewilderment.

The corners of Shangguan Xiu's mouth raised, a bright smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Be careful." When you come back, I'll let you see my progress!"

His smile made a soft light flash in Butterfly's eyes, and for a moment, she really wanted to go back to the top of the mountain, but she didn't do that.

She waved her hand to Shangguan Xiu, didn't say anything more, and walked down the mountain quickly.

Looking at the back of the butterfly descending the mountain, Shangguan Xiu's heart became empty, and the top of Yunmen Mountain suddenly became empty and lonely.

Even he didn't notice it, and he didn't know when he had developed a strong sense of dependence on Flower Butterfly.

Shangguan Xiu suppressed the loneliness in his heart, and practiced the Soul Breaking Knife that Hua Die had just taught him a few more times on the top of the mountain, and then he put the knife away and went down the mountain.

As when he came, he ran back to the inner city of Shangjing in a purely physical run.

After entering the inner city, he slowed down and was walking on his way home, when suddenly, he heard hurried footsteps ahead.

Shangguan Xiu was stunned, it is not dawn yet, who will run wild on the street except himself?

He listened carefully, and the footsteps got closer and closer, sounding not just one person, but several.

He continued to walk silently, and after a short time, three figures flashed on the street.

As the three figures ran closer and closer, Shangguan Xiu gradually saw clearly, these three people were all about twenty years old, and they were wearing spirit armor on their bodies, but the spirit armor was already broken, and even the spirit armor on the face had been shattered, and one of them seemed to be injured, and was being supported by a companion, and they all carried a bright spirit sword in their hands.

It's a spiritual cultivator! Shangguan Xiu's heart moved, and he frowned slightly.

Soon, the three cultivators had already run to Shangguan Xiu's approach, and the three of them looked at him vigilantly, and their footsteps did not stop, intending to run past him.

At this moment, there was a burst of shouts from behind the three of them: "This way! The assassin is running this way, chase after him!"

Shangguan Xiu was stunned, but the other party was not coming for him, and he didn't want to meddle in his affairs. Just when the two sides were about to pass by, Shangguan Xiu suddenly saw that one of the three young men was very familiar.

His heart moved, and his feet naturally stepped out of the instantaneous wind, and his figure flashed directly in front of the three of them like a ghost, blocking their way.

Seeing this, the three of them were all startled, stopped, and raised the spirit sword in their hands, and pointed at Shangguan Xiu in unison, one of them asked, "You are also Song Sheng's lackey?"

Before Shangguan Xiu could answer, another person roared angrily: "Don't talk to him, let's fight with him!" This person held a spirit sword, and rushed to Shangguan Xiu's approach, and stabbed when he was distracted.

His sword is fast, but Shangguan Xiu's instantaneous step is faster.

It was as if he had turned into a gust of wind and disappeared under the blade of the other party's sword.

The person who came out of the sword didn't see his body clearly at all, and felt that his sword stabbed out and stabbed a big living person, he didn't understand what was going on, and subconsciously turned his head to look, only to see that the other party had stood on his side at some point.

"Ahh As he spoke, he turned his head to look at the familiar young man and asked, "Are you a student of the Spirit Martial Academy?"

Shangguan Xiu's memory is outstanding, as long as it is someone he has seen, he can still remember it even after a year or two.

In his impression, the injured young man himself should have seen him at the student assembly, when he was wearing the uniform of the Imperial Spirit Martial Academy. As for the other two youths, he was not very impressed.

Hearing the other party suddenly call out his identity as a student of the Spirit Martial Academy, the injured young man was horrified, and subconsciously asked, "Who are you?"

Shangguan Xiu waved his hand at him and said, "Don't be nervous, I'm not your enemy, I'm a student of the Imperial Academy, and the reason why I know you is because we met at the assembly." As he spoke, he took out the badge issued by the organizers of the rally.

Seeing this badge, the injured young man's eyes widened, and he said in surprise: "You are also ......"
