In the capital, Zhao Mingyuan left a code in a specific place according to the method taught by Shangguan Feiyan, so as to wait for the reply of the Red Shoes.

Soon someone sent a note with the time and place of the meeting, only a few words.

"Tonight, in the West Garden."

The West Garden is in the west of the city and is a large garden. Now that dusk is past, the flowers, the shade of the trees, and the pavilions are already lit up with starry lights. The evening breeze carries the fragrance of flowers, but also the smell of wine. The full moon is like a mirror, hanging from the treetops.

Zhao Mingyuan was strolling in the garden when he suddenly saw an old woman walking out from under the shadow of the tree in front of him.

It was a very old woman, dressed in a patched blue dress, with a large stone on her back, as if it had broken her waist in the middle.

When she walked, it was as if she was bent over all the time, looking for something on the ground. The moonlight shone on her face, and her face was full of wrinkles, which looked like a piece of tissue paper that had been crumpled and unfolded.

"Sugar-fried chestnuts!" She also carried a large bamboo basket in her hand, covered with a very thick cotton cloth, and sold it as she walked, "The sugar fried chestnuts that have just been put on the market, the fragrant and hot sugar fried chestnuts, are only ten cents a catty." ”

A lonely, poor old woman, in the twilight of her life, came out to sell her sugar-fried chestnuts in her almost completely hoarse voice.

Zhao Mingyuan raised his head, the bright moon like an ice tray had gradually risen, and the hazy moonlight was heartbreakingly beautiful.

It's a full moon tonight.

Zhao Mingyuan said: "Old woman, come here, I'll buy two catties of chestnuts." ”

The chestnuts are really fragrant and hot, and they are just on the market.

"You said ten pennies a pound?"

The old woman nodded, still bent over, as if she had been looking at Zhao Mingyuan's feet, because her waist could not be straightened at all.

Zhao Mingyuan shook his head and said, "Ten pennies and a pound will never work!" ”

"It's only ten big money, uncle, you are too expensive?"

Zhao Mingyuan said with a straight face: "A chestnut like this one needs at least ten taels of gold a catty, and I won't buy it for a penny." ”

The old woman smiled, and the wrinkles on her face deepened.

"Such a good sugar-fried chestnut, one can poison three people, wouldn't it be a loss if it is sold cheaply!"

Aunt Gongsun, Grandma Bear, full moon night, fried chestnuts with sugar.

These keywords are gathered together, how can Zhao Mingyuan not know what is going on, this is too much of a coincidence.

Although Zhao Mingyuan is already invincible to all poisons, he has no intention of testing poison himself.

After all, I don't know if the poison effect of Jin Yong's world and the ancient dragon world is the same, but I don't dare to take risks.

Although Zhao Mingyuan is not afraid of death, there is no need to lose a life so simply.

The old woman suddenly laughed. Her laughter was like a silver bell, more beautiful than the silver bell: "The golden boy really deserves his name." ”

As she spoke, the old woman drew her daggers from the basket, and the swords were tied with bright red satin. The sword light flashed, and the sword blade pointed directly at Zhao Mingyuan's throat.

What a quick shot! What a fast sword!

It's just that she's fast, Zhao Mingyuan is faster!

Since Zhao Mingyuan had already known that she had bad intentions, how could he not be on guard, not to mention that there was a Dugu Nine Sword who anticipated the enemy's opportunity, and when he saw that she had signs of making a move, he immediately took out his sword.

Seeing that the two swords were about to intersect, the short sword retreated without warning and changed its move.

Gongsun Lady uses colored satin to control the short sword, which is more flexible than her hands, and the change of moves is even more incredible. It is even more tricky, and it can attack the enemy from above or even from behind, which is unguardable.

Hey, this kind of woman can't do it without a beating.

Since she had already recognized herself, she naturally knew her relationship with Shangguan Feiyan, but she still acted mercilessly.

Seeing that Aunt Gongsun couldn't be poisoned, she chose to be tough, and Zhao Mingyuan had no choice but to subdue her first.

In the past, there was a beautiful woman Gongsun, and a sword dance moved in all directions.

The spectators are depressed like mountains, and the heavens and the earth are low for a long time.

㸌 such as Yi shot nine sunsets, such as the emperor of the group of dragons.

Come like thunder to restrain anger, and let it be like the river and sea condensing the light.

Although there are no spectators like a mountain here, the sword dance used by the Gongsun Auntie in front of him also has a bit of the style of the Gongsun Auntie in the past.

It's just that she didn't give full play to the ability of this swordsmanship, otherwise, Zhao Mingyuan didn't dare to guarantee whether she could take it.

It's not her mercy.

Because the real power of this kind of swordsmanship requires "beauty" to be exerted. Only a peerless beauty, wearing a seven-colored neon dress, can bring the power of this sword dance to the extreme.

Now this dust-clad old woman, where is there still a trace of attraction to people?

Although it was a little regrettable that he couldn't see the full strength of the sword dance, Zhao Mingyuan also took this opportunity to get a glimpse of some of the essence.

The martial arts of the ancient dragon world are indeed different from those of Jin Yong's world.

Zhao Mingyuan also gradually realized his shortcomings.

First of all, there is the aspect of light work. No matter who it is on the rivers and lakes, Lu Xiaofeng, Ximen Blowing Snow or Gongsun Auntie, Ye Gucheng, which one of them is not very good.

As for himself, he will only have the ordinary light skill of the Huashan faction that does not even have a name, and it all depends on the internal force bonus of his Zixia Divine Skill, so it has not become a shortcoming for the time being, but sooner or later he has to find a way to make up for it.

Secondly, it is explosiveness, and he is extremely lacking in a trick that can defeat the enemy with such a move as the Flying Immortals from the sky.

In the ancient dragon world, such as Xiao Li's flying knife, Ah Fei's fast sword, and flying immortals outside the sky, almost all of them are one enrollment and one death.

His own Dugu Nine Swords, although they are also very powerful, have a sword that breaks through ten thousand laws, and has lofty intentions.

Dugu Jiujian is indeed strong when it is strong, even if it is against sword masters like Mu Daoren, Ximen Blowing Snow, and Ye Gucheng, Zhao Mingyuan may not lose. Even as long as you use Tai Chi swordsmanship to defend yourself and remain undefeated, as long as you drag it on, you can always see through the flaws in the opponent's swordsmanship, and the possibility of winning is still very big.

But it can't be said that when you are strong, you are strong, and when you are weak, you are weak.

If you encounter an ordinary strong person, like Aunt Gongsun, her strength is obviously lower than herself, but Dugu Jiujian can't win quickly, and it is even more impossible to defeat the enemy with one move. After all, Aunt Gongsun is already a first-class master, and the flaws in the swordsmanship are not so easy to break.

In other words, he now lacks a sword technique of abusing vegetables, as long as he is worse than himself, he can solve it with one move.

It won't take long, though. This sword dance is good, and it is similar to Hengshan swordsmanship, which is very beneficial to his swordsmanship. Of course, it would be better if you could study Ye Gucheng's Flying Immortals outside the sky.

Lu Xiaofeng can use it once after seeing the Flying Immortals outside the sky, and Zhao Mingyuan's sword path is naturally not inferior to him.

I saw this move, the sword was like a meteor, the sword light was like a match, like a flying rainbow, and it stabbed straight towards Aunt Gongsun, it was Aunt Gongsun whose sword dance, and Zhao Mingyuan was not inferior.

This sword is too fast, too absolute.

The short sword attacked by Gongsun Auntie did not have time to turn, and the ribbon on the hilt of the sword had been cut off, which was equivalent to cutting off the two hands holding the sword.

The sword still stabbed forward, and it was overwhelming.

Aunt Gongsun's body has flipped out of the air, and her long skirt is flying. The moon was in the sky, red shoes appeared in the moonlight, and her people had flown five feet away.

Zhao Mingyuan knew that he couldn't catch up, so he stood by his sword and said, "Since you know who I am, you naturally know that I am not malicious here." ”
