Chapter 11: Snowy Night (5)
In the past two days, Maya seems to be on the same page as Tang Yun, always from time to time intentionally or unintentionally uttering a few sour words, but Tang Yun also saw that Maya and Zhu Wenyu have no special relationship, the whole is a scheming and innocent little girl, as soon as her heart is gone, she no longer looks at Maya unpleasantly, but feels that this little sister is quite innocent and cute, so she doesn't bother to worry about her little girl who hasn't grown up.
This night, Zhu Wenyu drove Tang Yun, Tang Li and Maya back to the house early to rest, so that the snow would stop tomorrow and go to check again, and he and Nangong Ling would chat casually and go to bed. During the conversation, Zhu Wenyu deliberately avoided the topic of Nangong Zhi, but Nangong Ling was still listlessly preoccupied, and lay down on the bed early. Zhu Wenyu had no choice but to meditate for a while and practice the Yi Qi health regimen, breathe for a while, and lie down to rest.
In the middle of the night, the north wind was blowing outside the window, and it seemed that the snow was heavier again. Suddenly, Zhu Wenyu woke up as if he was conscious, but he didn't notice anything unusual, and Nangong Ling next to him was still asleep. Zhu Wenyu laughed secretly: "Scare yourself." "Lie down and go back to sleep. As soon as he closed his eyes, he heard the sound of thin footsteps outside the window. Zhu Wenyu was listening intently, only to hear a "snap", as if something hit the pane, making a strange sound. Nangong Ling also woke up with a bang, the two looked at each other in the dark, quietly got out of bed and quickly got dressed, and took the sword in hand.
I heard another "pop", a white light broke through the window, and hit the table in the middle of the room with a "nail", trembling and still shaking, but it was a dart, and there was a piece of paper nailed to it.
Nangong jumped out of bed in a hurry, grabbed the window, didn't have time to pull the window bolt, snapped the ground and broke the window, opened the window, only to see heavy snow flying, black clouds in the sky, but in the darkness I saw a black shadow on the roof outside the inn quickly away, it had reached thirty or forty zhang away.
Here, Zhu Wenyu grabbed the table, took out the dart, opened the paper, and saw three big words written on the paper, "Come with me".
Zhu Wenyu waved his hand and threw the paper to Nangong Ling, and he had already rushed out of the window, stepped on the roof next to him, and chased after the black shadow. Nangong Ling glanced at the paper, and also jumped out and chased after him.
I saw that the black shadow was wearing a night suit, and his movements were also extremely fast, and his figure stepped out more than a foot on the roof, showing that he had achieved light work, holding a long sword, and running in front. Zhu Wenyu didn't speak, and he took up light skills, and several ups and downs had already jumped out seven or eight feet away. Nangong Ling was five or six feet behind Zhu Wenyu, and with the figures of the two people in front of him, he also kept chasing forward. In the heavy snow, although there is no moonlight, the white light is reflected in all directions, and the black shadow in front is also very clear.
In a blink of an eye, it has been chased out of sixteen or seventeen miles, and it has reached the outskirts of Danling County, and there is a mountain in front of it, but it has already been covered with a thick layer of snow. Zhu Wenyu chased all the way, but his light skills were slightly higher, and he had chased more than ten feet behind the black shadow, and it seemed that he could catch up with the black shadow in another seven or eight miles. Nangong Ling was already twenty or thirty zhang behind Zhu Wenyu, and it seemed that he was on par with the light skills of the black shadow.
Nangong Ling was rushing to see the black shadow in front of him running wildly all the way, and he couldn't catch up, and he was anxious in his heart, but he saw that Zhu Wenyu had obviously chased a lot closer, so he just had to chase after him, and he could finally catch up, as long as Zhu Wenyu caught up and fought a few moves, he could arrive. He knew that Zhu Wenyu's martial arts had entered the first-class realm, even if he met a strong opponent, he would be able to support at least thirty or fifty moves, and when he arrived, with the first-class skills of the two of them, they would work together, even if they met the world's number one master, I am afraid they would not be defeated.
Suddenly, Nangong Ling felt a strong wind coming over him. It turned out that he was running past a dead tree, and there was actually a person hiding behind the dead tree. Nangong Ling was startled, his body was stunned, and he floated to the right, and the "Qiushui Sword" was unsheathed!
I saw a person flash out from behind the dead tree, tall and thin, with a black scarf and a masked. The masked man had already attacked with a sword, but what shocked Nangong Ling's heart was that it was actually a two-handed double sword!
Nangong didn't have time to speak, and as soon as he raised the "Qiushui Sword", he was already entangled with the masked man. The masked man seemed to have extremely high martial arts, and what was even worse was that he seemed to be extremely familiar with Nangong Ling's martial arts, as if he knew what tricks Nangong Ling was going to use at any time, and attacked Nangong Ling one after another, almost powerless. But it is all beckoning to the arms and thighs and the like, and there is no point in attacking Nangong Ling at all, even if there is a flaw in Nangong Ling's chest, it is as straight as not seeing, and there is no intention to attack.
"Fifth Uncle!" Nangong Ling shouted.
The masked man suddenly stopped his figure, stood still for a foot, and Nangong Ling also took the opportunity to stand still, just now the other party rushed to take the lead in a round, which already made him a little panting from parrying. The masked man crossed his sword to his left hand, and his right hand slowly ripped off the face scarf, revealing a clear and emaciated face, two sword eyebrows moved closer to the middle, and two extremely sharp eyes stared at Nangong Ling.
"It's really you, Uncle Five." The masked man is the "black and white sword" Nangong Zhi, one of the "three sons of Nangong" of the Nangong family who walks the rivers and lakes, and has been walking in the rivers and lakes on behalf of the Nangong family for eleven years.
"You come with me." That Nangong Zhi turned around and left.
Nangong Ling hurriedly followed, and walked out of Lixu, Nangong Zhi suddenly stopped and turned around.
"Ling'er, you don't have to worry about the murder of the Zhang family, go back to the door." Nangong Zhi said slowly.
"Ling'er doesn't know what the five uncles mean." Nangong Ling was not surprised to hear this, and clenched his fists and said.
"There were a lot of twists and turns. In short, you don't have to worry about it, and you don't have to accompany Zhu Wenyu to investigate any cases, go back to the door, or go to the rivers and lakes by yourself, you can do it, anyway, don't come to this pool. ”
"The fifth uncle of the Zhang family murder case was also involved?" Nangong Ling asked loudly.
"This ...... I was not involved, and the perpetrators were someone else...... Merely...... I have disciplined several perpetrators. It's just that this matter has nothing to do with the Nangong family, so you still don't want to get involved in this matter, go back to the door. Nangong Zhi seemed to have an unspeakable hidden speech.
"The door master ordered me to assist Zhu Wenyu in investigating the matter of the Black Wolf Gang, and I couldn't go away at this time."
"Black Wolves?" Nangong Zhi asked suspiciously.
"It is the force behind the murders in Qufu and Chengdu, as well as Zhang Qianshan, Golden Butterfly, Bangs, Haiqi, He Honghua and others, all those who take the silver medal as a secret mark." Nangong Lingdao.
"You've heard a lot. That's not called the Black Wolf Gang, it's called the Tianyi League. You don't have to worry about this matter, this matter has nothing to do with the Nangong family, it will only be beneficial and harmless to the Nangong family, and the Nangong family does not need to participate. ”
"Beneficial or not? How did the third uncle die? Zhang Qianshan is from the Tianyi League, right? How could the third uncle die at his hands? Nangong Ling shouted loudly, already excited.
"I also learned about this matter after the fact, but the matter has come to this point, irretrievable, anyway, that Zhang Qianshan is also dead, this grievance can be regarded as revealed, as long as the overall situation is beneficial to my Nangong family, some small grievances, since it has passed, there is no need to ask again." Nangong Zhi sighed and said.
"No, Fifth Uncle, the master of this matter has been strictly ordered to follow Zhu Wenyu to investigate the Black Wolf Gang, oh no, it is a matter of the Tianyi Alliance, so as not to cause a catastrophe in the martial arts. I must obey the orders of the master. If the fifth uncle thinks that the Nangong family should not ask about this matter, please report it to the door master, and the door master will order me to be called back. Today, I also ask for forgiveness for my nephew not being able to accept the order of the fifth uncle. "Nangong Lingti Kendo.
"There has been a lore in front of you, then Zhu Wenyu is going to be more auspicious and less auspicious, you must not go to make a mistake, listen to me, you go back to the inn, take something and go back to Shandong." Nangong Zhi asserted.
As soon as he heard that Tianyi Alliance had set up an ambush against Zhu Wenyu, and it was extremely dangerous, Nangong Ling was suddenly anxious, and without saying a word, he was about to run forward with his sword, but he saw that Nangong Zhi's figure flickered, and he had stopped in front of him to block the way.
"Fifth uncle, the little nephew has to go, and I hope that the fifth uncle will be successful." Nangong Ling clenched his fists and said hurriedly.
Nangong Zhi shook his head and said, "No, you can't go." ”
"Then please forgive Ling'er for being rude." Nangong Ling gritted his teeth, and the "Qiushui Sword" had been slowly leveled up.
Nangong Zhi sighed slightly and said, "Ling'er, you can't beat me." I'm here to stop you from taking risks, so you'd better be obedient. Although he said so, he separated a sword from his left hand to his right hand, which was already a two-handed double sword, which was the "black and white double sword" worn by Nangong Zhi. Nangong Ling's skills have entered the realm of first-class masters, although Nangong Zhi's martial arts are higher, but after all, he doesn't dare to be too careless, and he is already concentrating on attacking.
Nangong Ling shouted in a low voice: "Fifth uncle, offended." Before the words fell, he had swung his sword and attacked.
After all, Nangong Zhi has been walking the rivers and lakes for more than ten years, has profound skills, is experienced in the rivers and lakes, and is extremely familiar with Nangong Ling's moves and body methods. It's just that Nangong Zhi didn't intend to hurt Nangong Ling at all, but just prevented Nangong Ling from going to meet Zhu Wenyu, and the sword move stopped immediately, and he didn't greet the key point at all. This time Nangong Ling was extremely impatient, he couldn't win the fight, he couldn't get over it, in the face of Wubo, he didn't want to use some desperate tricks, Nangong Zhi didn't rush to attack, but he didn't rush to entangle him one by one.
Nangong Ling became more and more anxious, time passed little by little, more than half an hour had passed in a blink of an eye, the snow was getting heavier and heavier, Nangong Ling and Nangong Zhi were covered with snowflakes on their heads, and even their eyebrows and hair were covered with a thin layer of frost, four or five hundred moves passed, but they still couldn't get rid of Nangong Zhi's entanglement, the more chaotic their minds became, and the moves became more and more disorganized, Nangong Zhi secretly frowned: "This kid, why is his temperament so strong?" When I was a child, I was very obedient, why is it that the older I get, the worse it is? ”
After fighting for half an hour, the heavy snow has gradually stopped, Nangong Ling is getting weaker and weaker the more he fights, and the more he fights, the more disappointed he becomes, knowing that he can't get rid of Nangong Zhi's entanglement, he was so anxious that he was about to cry, and said: "Fifth uncle, please old man, let me go." ”
"No! Ling'er, Uncle Wu, this is for your own good, I have arranged this matter, you just listen to me, you won't be wrong. Nangong Zhi was also a little out of breath.
