Chapter Thirty-Nine: I'm Coming to See the Play

In order to wash the bronze plaque of "Jing Chengsi", Shao Xi squatted by the well in the backyard of the inn and washed until it was dark. After washing the brand, I washed my hands for a long time. remembered the scene when Lao Wu took out the sign before, and felt really uneasy, so he washed it again.

"He's stuffed it in his pants, and he's not too scared." Shao Xi muttered as he walked towards his room.

When he returned to the room and turned off the light, Shao Xi lay on the bed with his clothes closed, and the scene of living on the grassland over the years came to his mind. It's been a few days since he left the grassland, but he still thinks of Muren and Urina from time to time, as well as those kind people on the grassland. I wonder how they're doing now? Are they thinking about themselves as much as they think about them?

It is easy for people to fall asleep when they think about their thoughts in the dark, Shao Xi thought about it like this, and fell asleep in a daze. I don't know how long I slept until I was woken up by the shouting outside the window.

"Stop, don't run, you're already surrounded, you can't run away."

"Which way are you running?"

"Zhangtou, that guy is over there, and our guys are chasing him."

"Then you're still standing here shouting a fart, why don't you chase it?"

Shao Xi heard the voice of Zhang Chong outside, so he got up and pushed open the window to look out. I saw Zhang Chong leading his men and chasing after a black shadow in the distance.

Without thinking about it, Shao Xi jumped out of the window, landed lightly on the bluestone pavement, lifted his body and chased in the direction where the black shadow disappeared.

was chasing, suddenly felt a black shadow behind him rushing towards him, didn't have time to think about it, twisted his body, turned around and kicked at the black shadow behind him.

The black shadow was short and lay directly on the ground. shouted at him, "Young Master, it's me, do you want to kick me to death?" ”

"Damn! Can you not be behind me like a ghost next time? ”

"If it weren't for you chasing it out, the ghost would be willing to appear behind you."

"Don't talk nonsense, chase after it, that person's body method is pretty good."

When Lao Wu heard this, he felt uncomfortable. The mouth nagged, "Good body? You seem to have forgotten what I do? ”

After saying that, the two chased after each other together.

That Zhang Chong led his subordinates, and his life was almost gone, pouting and leaning against the wall on the side of the road, panting desperately, and kept muttering, "How can this guy run so much?" One moment over the wall, the other time to go to the house, almost tossed us to death. ”

"Zhangtou, what should I do? Are we still chasing after it? ”

"Still chasing fart, do you know where he is right now?"

A few people were grumbling. Suddenly, two dark shadows flashed past them, so fast that the wind blew their hats crooked. Several people stared at each other, and no one figured out what the situation was.

"Did you see that? What just happened to you? ”

"It's like two big black rats."

"Fart, how can there be such a big black mouse in this world?"

"So do you see what it is?"

"Nonsense, I'm going to see it clearly, and I'm going to ask you?"

“……”

Shao Xi and Lao Wu chased the black shadow all the way over the wall and over the ridge, and they saw that they were getting closer and closer. The black shadow also seemed to sense that the two people behind him were stronger than him, so when he jumped up on a ridge, he waved the long knife in his hand and turned around and slashed at the two of them, and a blood-red knife flew straight towards Shao Xi and Lao Wu.

Seeing the flying sword, Shao Xi's heart was slightly shocked.

"The pinnacle of the four grades!" Imperial Qi Realm'! ”

Seeing that the knife gang was coming towards him with a strong killing intent, Shao Xi didn't have time to think about it. In an instant, the emerald feather sword was unsheathed, and the emerald blue sword qi went straight towards the sword. At the same time, he flashed his body in front of Lao Wu, urging the vitality to release the qi shield.

Bang......

Burst......

Although Shao Xi's sword obviously weakened the strength of the opponent's sword gang, it did not make the sword gang disappear, and the weakened qi was only offset when it hit Shao Xi's qi shield.

"Master, if you can't beat it, what should I do?"

Lao Wu was also frightened by this just now, but fortunately, Shao Xi blocked it for him, otherwise it would be an explanation at this time.

"What's the stupid boy doing? Explosive Dan! ”

If it weren't for Lao Wu's reminder, Shao Xi would have forgotten about these pills by now. Back then, Guo Youde left him these pills, except for the last time he healed the nameless swordsman, the others had never been used. It's been ten years, and I don't know if the explosive pill has expired?

Seeing the sluggish figures of the two of them, the black shadow turned and fled quickly into the distance.

"No matter, let's get one first." Shao Xi muttered.

Open the waist bag, take out the small porcelain bottle, pour out a burst pill and throw it into your mouth. After retracting the porcelain vase into his waist bag, he and Lao Wu chased in the direction of the black shadow again.

In just a few breaths, Shao Xi felt the sea of qi surging, and the vitality continued to flow everywhere in his body. At this time, Lao Wu could no longer keep up with his figure, and was left behind by him, and the distance between him and the black shadow in front of him was much faster than before. He knew that the Explosion Pill had worked.

When chasing to the southwest corner of the city wall, the black shadow stopped and stood still, turning to look at Shao Xi.

I saw that this person was not tall and thin. Dressed in a nocturnal short, with a ghostly mask on his face. In the moonlight, it was terrifying.

"You're the bandit who infiltrated the city?" Shao Xi asked calmly.

In fact, he knew that he had asked a nonsense, and the other party would not answer him at all. It's just that he did it on purpose, he wanted to delay as much time as possible, so that the effect of the Explosive Qi Pill could be fully digested in the body until the best effect was exerted.

Perhaps because of the blow just now, the man in black seemed to be very confident in the face of Shao Xi.

I saw him sink his shoulders, bow down, and take a wrong step, and suddenly rushed over, and the long knife in his hand slanted towards Shao Xi's right armpit from bottom to top.

"Want to fight in close combat? Too confident, right? Shao Xi thought secretly in his heart.

If it weren't for the fact that the sword technique was very exquisite, the difference in strength between the two sides was obvious, and it was not advantageous to use the sword technique and the sword technique to fight in close combat. Although the sword technique is strong and fast, it is not so flexible compared to the sword technique due to the large opening and closing. Therefore, in melee combat, if the difference in strength between the two sides is not large, the flexibility of swordsmanship will have a great advantage.

Shao Xi followed the momentum of the opponent's blade, his body rotated to the right, his feet moved to the left, and he instantly turned to the right side of the opponent's body. Then one turned around and flirted, and the tip of the sword struck against the opponent's right armpit.

Because the black-clothed man had not finished the trend when he rushed forward just now, he saw Shao Xi's sword coming to his armpit at this time, so he had to hover his body to the right in the air, and his waist sank and his feet fell to the ground.

After landing, the man in black did not attack again. Shao Xi couldn't see the eyes behind his mask clearly, and he must have been calculating whether to fight in close combat at this time.

Shao Xi didn't want to give him a chance, seeing that he didn't move, Shao Xi kicked the ground with his right foot, and stabbed him straight to the chest with a sword in both hands.

The man in black saw that the momentum was fast, but instead of retreating, he stepped forward with his left foot, and came with a lunge to wrap his head, wanting to use this to block Shao Xi's sword momentum, so that he could take another right oblique split.

Where would Shao Xi give him such an opportunity? At the moment when the two weapons collided, Shao Xi suddenly turned his body to the left, his footsteps moved to the right, and then turned to the left side of the other party, and then took a lunge and stabbed straight away, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at the left shoulder of the man in black.

Seeing that there was no way to stop at this time, the man in black could only roll on the spot with the knife momentum that wrapped around his head, avoiding the sword momentum stabbed by Shao Xi, and when he got up again, he slashed with his backhand and threw out a knife. It seems that he has completely given up the idea of melee combat with Shao Xi.

After some melee just now, the Explosive Qi Pill in Shao Xi's body had fully played its role. At this time, when facing the knife gang of the man in black, Shao Xi was a little more confident. So he swept out a sword qi with his sword, which happened to collide with the opponent's sword.

Due to the effect of the Qi Explosion Pill, Shao Xi's Yuan Qi at this time has also reached the peak of the fourth grade, so at this time, the collision of the two sides' strength is almost comparable. After the "bang", only smoke and dust were left on the ground, and the two sides stood opposite each other with their respective weapons.

At this time, Lao Wu had already rushed over. Standing next to him, he said in a weird manner: "Oh, troublesome!" You can't win when you fight, you can't run away. If you grind like this, if you get it at dawn? Trouble trouble! ”

At this time, Shao Xi and the man in black looked at Lao Wu and couldn't fight together, we are desperate! What are you talking about on the side?

In fact, what Lao Wu said was really true. As a once famous thief in the rivers and lakes, what he is most afraid of is not that he can't beat the other party, but that he can't escape. Once you are entangled by the other party, that's the real trouble.

"What do you all think I'm doing? Either keep fighting, or one continues to run, and the other continues to chase. I'm here to play, not to act. ”

The man in black seemed to be stimulated by Lao Wu's words, and suddenly swung a knife at Lao Wu, and a knife came out of the knife and flew towards Lao Wu. Shao Xi on the side saw that the situation was not good, and immediately swung a sword qi at the fastest speed, heading straight for the arm of the man in black.

They all underestimated Lao Wu. The knife on the roof was caught off guard before, and it was indeed difficult for Lao Wu to dodge. At this time, Lao Wu was already on guard in his heart, so when this knife slashed, Lao Wu immediately activated his body technique and flashed to the right for more than a kilometer in an instant.

Lao Wu dodged, but the man in black didn't. Although there were some deviations in the sword qi of Shao Xi's sword in a hurry, and it did not completely hit the arm of the man in black, the aura of the sword qi still scratched the man in black.

I heard the man in black snort and take a few steps back. The left hand pressed against the forearm of the right hand, and blood flowed from between the fingers. With such an injury, with both sides at the peak of the fourth rank of the "Imperial Qi Realm", the man in black was no longer able to fight. At this time, his best choice is to leave, but can he escape in the face of Shao Xi and Lao Wu?

The answer was soon revealed. I saw the man in black throwing a paper bag at Shao Xi and the others, and the paper bag was shattered in mid-air by the faint knife sent by the man in black, and the white powder spread out in the air in an instant, and a pungent smell filled the air.

While Shao Xi and Lao Wu were busy covering their mouths and noses, the man in black jumped and fled into the distance.

Old Wu's nose was almost crooked.

"This shameless one, with lime powder!"
