Lin Feng carried Du Jian, who was already drunk, on his back, and staggered into the dormitory of the City Shoufu.

Li Jiangyao was holding the battle report he had just written, and when he saw them coming in, he pulled a mat from the couch next to him and threw it on the ground: "Throw it here." ”

Seeing this, Lin Feng nodded, and threw Du Jian on the mat: "Drinking like a dead pig, I'm tired to death." ”

Li Jiangyao ignored him, and after thinking for a while, he wrote again:

As mentioned earlier, although this battle was won by luck, there were also many worries. In short, there are three suspicious points that make it difficult to let go of the lowly position.

First, the Ghost League has been hiding on the Persian border for a long time, and has rarely moved eastward, but this time it actually went deep into the hinterland of Western Xinjiang and gathered troops to attack the city, which is extremely abnormal.

Second, the day of the thieves came to attack coincided with the martyrdom of all the original garrison of Metasequoia, and the troops in the city were empty. Geerhan is located in a corner of the western frontier, and it is not easy to accurately grasp the opportunity.

Third, before the war, he explored the spies in the city, and heard that there was a saying in Laihai that 'the leader of the alliance will be able to retake the car late'. With the strength of the Ghost Alliance alone, it is difficult to succeed in this matter, but how can it have the intention of being ambitious?

I thought about it repeatedly, thinking that this horse bandit attack disturbed Metasequoia, or it was closely related to the Turks, and it was necessary to guard against it.

Li Jiangyao thought about it seriously, hesitated for a moment, and then continued to write:

Metasequoia is located in the western Xinjiang trade road, with abundant materials, merchants gathered, and the city defense system is relatively complete. Two hundred miles to the west, that is, where the city of Chechi Wangcheng is located, it is of great strategic value, and it is really a place where soldiers must fight. If the enemy occupies this place, the east can block the Shengtang trade road, and the west can invade the court of Chechi, once the Turkic forces intervene in it, I am afraid that the chaos will be very great, so I implore you to consider it and send more troops to help the water cedar in case of contingencies.

Li Jiangyao put down the pen and carefully checked it from beginning to end, feeling that there was nothing else to report, so he stuffed the battle report into the letterbox, sealed the lid tightly with sealing mud, and then stamped the letter, and handed it to Lin Feng: "Hurry up and pass it to Yamon, hand it to Lord Duwei!" ”

In the event of a major military situation, Lin Feng did not dare to slack off, so he hurriedly took the letterbox with both hands, turned around and rushed out.

Li Jiangyao rubbed his sour eyes, raised his foot and kicked Du Jian, who was lying next to him. Du Jian turned over in a daze, and muttered to himself: "Come on, one more pot, who is afraid of whom!" ”

"Lin Feng is right, it's really a pig." Li Jiangyao smiled helplessly, reached out to pick up the big bowl on the table, and pulled the noodles that had already been cold in his mouth.

After only a few bites, Li Jiangyao suddenly stopped his chopsticks and looked out the window vigilantly.

A master's keen intuition surged into his heart in an instant: there is someone outside!

In the next second, the Starfall Knife had already reached Li Jiangyao's hand, and he bounced up from the spot and dodged outside the house.

A figure was standing quietly under the pomegranate tree in the small courtyard.

Gao Shuo is thin and gray, and he is actually the person he saw on the street today!

Li Jiangyao didn't rush to alarm the guards, but only asked lightly, "Who are you?" ”

The man in gray slowly turned his head, his eyes fell on the starfall knife, and he replied, "What's your surname?" ”

Li Jiangyao understood that the other party should have recognized the divine weapon in his hand, and then mistakenly thought that he was the teacher He Jingming.

He snorted coldly, "You haven't answered my question yet." Trespassing on barracks and important places, beware of military law! ”

The man in gray seemed to have all his interest only in the starfall knife, and turned a deaf ear to Li Jiangyao's threat: "Tsk, it's not like the age." Are you a descendant or disciple of He Jingming? If that's the case, it's not interesting. ”

"What's interesting or not?" Li Jiang said in a daze: "Are you a nervous disorder?" If I ask you something, answer it quickly! ”

The man in gray looked at Li Jiangyao, and there was a faint light in his eyes: "You ask me who I am, my name is Bi Luo." ”

Bi Luo?

Li Jiangyao was slightly stunned, he felt that this name was very familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

Judging from the appearance of the clothes, the other party is obviously not from Middle-earth, but the standard Shengtang dialect is very authentic, and even has a little imperial capital accent.

Facing this guy of unknown origin but who seemed unfathomable, Li Jiangyao asked patiently: "This is the city guard mansion, what do you want to do at night?" ”

Bi Luo looked at Li Jiangyao with interest: "Who are you He Jingming?" ”

Li Jiangyao didn't want to deal with this issue, but since the other party mentioned the master's name, he didn't need to hide it, so he responded calmly: "My master, what's wrong?" ”

"Alas, as I expected," Bi Luo sighed lightly: "I passed through here, and when I saw the Starfall Divine Soldier at first glance, I thought that I could have the opportunity to comprehend the mastery of the first sword technique of the Holy Tang Dynasty, but I didn't expect that there would be no such fate." ”

Listening to the other party's words full of arrogance, Li Jiangyao couldn't help but think in his heart: Since he knows that my master's sword skills are the best in the twenty-eight states of Middle Earth, but he still has the confidence to come to the door to challenge, isn't he also a master among masters?

In an instant, a thunderbolt crossed Li Jiangyao's mind!

Bi Luo? I'll go! Turkic Martial Saint Biluo?!

Before Li Jiangyao could react, he only heard Bi Luo say lightly: "Since you are He Jingming's apprentice, there must be some means, so it is better to try the depth of the Starfall Knife on you first." You are considered a junior, I will let you make ten moves. Come, shot. ”

"Out of your big-headed hands!" Li Jiangyao said depressedly: "I don't know you, so I can't do it!" Hurry up and roll as far as you can, otherwise you won't have good fruit to eat! ”

In the face of Li Jiangyao's disrespectful remarks, Bi Luo did not disobey at all: "The kid is scheming, and before he made a move, he tried to provoke me first." It's a pity that your Taoism is still shallow, and your means are not very clever. ”

He shook the sleeves of his robe: "Since you don't accept my kindness, then don't blame me for being polite." ”

After that, Bi Luo's body shook, swept a distance of more than ten zhang like a ghost, and flashed in front of Li Jiangyao in the blink of an eye, and at the same time stretched out his right hand, five fingers, and attacked the top of Li Jiangyao's head.

Li Jiangyao never expected that the other party would actually say that he would fight, and as soon as he made a move, it was a fatal move, so he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly gathered his consciousness and dealt with it seriously.

However, to his great surprise, in the past, as long as his mind moved, the rhythm of the people or things around him would immediately slow down, and he would be allowed to play at will, without any danger or mistake.

But tonight, this ability is not good.

Bi Luo's movements showed no signs of slowing down, and he was still grabbing at him with great agility. Li Jiangyao was taken aback, and purely based on his subconscious reaction, he hurriedly retreated backwards and dodged, and at the same time pulled out the Starfall Treasure Knife and blocked upward.

Bi Luo laughed when he saw this, and then turned around lightly, came to Li Jiangyao's right side, and punched out of thin air. Ling Yan's fist wind slammed into Li Jiangyao's ribs from a distance of half a foot, almost shocking him to vomit blood on the spot.

Li Jiangyao was in pain, and retreated again and again, but before he could recover his breath, Bi Luo came close again, and a pair of iron palms flew up and down, beckoning Li Jiangyao's vital point, and said while fighting back: "It's slow, it's too slow!" ”

Li Jiangyao was almost angry with him, and he couldn't help but be angry, and his mind and spiritual sense were several times stronger than before.

With the change in the intensity of his mind, Bi Luo's movements were finally not as fast as lightning in his eyes, Li Jiangyao saw the opportunity, and pulled out three sword flowers one after another, which could be used to seal the iron palm attacked by the other party.

Bi Luo showed a hint of joy on his face and said with satisfaction: "Well, this is like a little talk." Again, faster! ”

As he spoke, he raised his skill from one percent to three percent, and his palm immediately turned into a storm, and suddenly swept towards Li Jiangyao.

After maintaining the balance of power for less than half a minute, it was instantly broken by Bi Luo, Li Jiangyao couldn't see the opponent's tricks clearly, and then slapped him twice, and the blood flowed unstoppably down the corners of his mouth.

At the same time, he also knew very well in his heart that Bi Luo intended to explore the door of the Starfall Sword Technique, and he didn't use all his strength at all, otherwise just these two palms would be enough to kill him.

At the moment of life and death, Li Jiangyao hurriedly got rid of distracting thoughts, boosted his mind again, and at the same time secretly urged He Jingming's internal strength mental method to pour endless killing intent into the blade of the Starfall Knife.

The blade rises, and the stars fall!

In an instant, a bright starlight seemed to fly down from the Milky Way, and suddenly burst in front of the two.

Bi Luo immediately sensed the danger of the situation, and just before the starlight touched his body, he sealed a shield shadow with his palm, and then retreated at the same time.

With a thud, Starlight collided with the air shield with a muffled thud.

"Wonderful!" Bi Luo put his hands behind his back and said with a chic smile: "This move just now must be the famous 'Galaxy Straight Fall', it is really extraordinary." If you let your master do it, I'm afraid it will be even more powerful. ”

"If my master were here, you would be a dead man by now!" Li Jiangyao scolded angrily while secretly adjusting his internal rest to heal.

Bi Luo still looks like he is in good shape: "That's not necessarily. Galaxy Straight Win is extremely high in critical intensity, but for those who are smart, the threat is not too big. As for how far He Jingming can play him, I have to try it myself to know. But ......"

He paused slightly, and then looked at Li Jiangyao curiously: "However, you kid is very weird." ”

Li Jiangyao raised his hand and raised his knife, and pointed at Bi Luo from afar: "Don't talk nonsense, come back if you have the ability!" ”

"You can't beat me, if you fight again, you will only have a dead end." Bi Luo shook his head disdainfully: "To be honest, I did have an idea, first take your life, and then take the Starfall Knife to find your master to make a move." But the weirdness about you made me change my mind for the time being. ”

Li Jiangyao was a little puzzled: "So it's mysterious, what's weird about me?" ”

Bi Luo stared at Li Jiangyao and said lightly: "The cultivation foundation of the Starfall Knife is based on the word 'fast'. Under normal circumstances, if a person who practices martial arts wants to be fast, he relies on internal force, but you are completely different. If I'm not mistaken, your internal cultivation is biased towards the explosion of power, and you haven't put much effort into the fast aspect, and the reason why you are able to master the Starfall Sword Technique is purely by virtue of the talent of the 'Instantaneous Pupil', which is very rare. ”

"Instantaneous Pupil?" Li Jiangyao couldn't help but be stunned, and vaguely felt that what the other party was talking about was his own special function.

Bi Luo smiled: "Boy, God has given you such a gift, maybe it is a blessing or a misfortune. I'll come back to you when I'm done with business, so don't let me down when the time comes. ”

As soon as the words fell, Bi Luo jumped straight up from the spot for a few feet, then turned around, and disappeared into the vast night in the blink of an eye.

Almost at the same time, more than a dozen scout guards broke into the courtyard and asked suspiciously, "My lord, is that strange muffled noise just now?" What's wrong? ”

Li Jiangyao slowly inserted the knife back into the scabbard: "It's okay, I'm just practicing, you don't have to be nervous." ”
