Chapter 34: The Sacrifice of the Nails
Old Man Ming didn't want to entangle too much with the man in front of him who was like an iron nail, and he didn't want to be escaped from under his nose by the injured fat man.
A matter of face.
He is a character who will command the rivers and lakes in the future, but he can't even catch an injured fat man, and he can't even watch him escape.
made up his mind, so as soon as his figure moved, he wanted to jump over the nail in front of him, but suddenly a knife flashed in front of him.
The nail was shot.
The dagger in his hand slashed out as fast as lightning, like the fangs of a poisonous snake, and struck at Old Man Ming fiercely.
Old Man Ming frowned and stretched out his right hand.
The nail couldn't help but be stunned.
Although these daggers are not a magic weapon, they are also extremely sharp, and with the hard work he has worked on them for decades, it makes it handy, and he doesn't believe that anyone can directly take his dagger with one hand of flesh and blood.
Even if that person is Old Man Ming.
But Old Man Ming really did it.
His right hand stretched out, and he grasped the blade of the dagger in Nail's hand.
The nail was stunned for a moment, and when the two intersected, he clearly heard the sound of metal colliding.
He looked closely, and Old Man Ming was wearing a pair of gloves on his right hand, which seemed to be made of metal, and under the moonlight, there was a faint metallic luster.
Could this old man's hands be made of iron?
Nail was thinking about it, but there was a scene in front of him that surprised him even more.
Old Man Ming's right hand clenched, and the dagger "choked", and it was broken by force!
The nail couldn't help but be stunned, and at this time, Old Man Ming's right hand had already taken advantage of the momentum and grabbed his arm like lightning.
A great pain struck him, and the nail felt a cold, metallic sensation, and he immediately realized that it could not be a fleshy hand!
Old Man Ming's right hand turned out to be really an iron hand!
Nail knows that there are many characters on the rivers and lakes who call themselves iron hands and copper arms, which are nothing more than under hard practice, so that their arms can resist some sword injuries, but in the final analysis, this is nothing more than a kind of qigong, after all, their arms are still flesh and blood.
Among them, especially one of the "double arrests in the world" who died in the Beijing case, Dali Temple Shaoqing Iron Hand Iron Ruthless is the most famous, it is said that one of his hands has been practiced really as if it was made of iron and copper, and the heavy wooden table is like cutting tofu.
Even if he is afraid, he can't be like Old Man Ming, who can break the blade of the dagger with one hand.
Because this right hand of Old Man Ming is really cast from steel, an iron hand!
At that time, the Jiangnan Ming family conspiracy provoked a fight between the various major factions on the rivers and lakes, intending to take the opportunity to dominate the rivers and lakes and dominate the martial arts. Unexpectedly, the matter was revealed, and the joint encirclement and suppression of various major factions was ushered in, and the elite of the Jiangnan Ming family was almost lost, and it has been in a slump ever since.
It was in that battle that Old Man Ming, although he survived by luck, lost one of his right hands.
For those who practice martial arts, losing their right hand will undoubtedly become a wasted person, but Old Man Ming is not willing to accept his fate.
On the one hand, he tried his courage, secretly worked hard to develop the power of the Jiangnan Ming family, accumulated strength, and on the other hand, he used the power of the Jiangnan Ming family to read a lot of books, search for skilled craftsmen in the world, and designed and created such a real iron hand for himself.
This steel-forged hand is extremely precise, ingenious, and controlled by an extremely complex mechanism, not only is it dexterous, not inferior to a real hand, but it is also extremely hard, not afraid of any sword blade, but it makes the old man like a tiger with wings.
It's just that this matter is extremely secretive, even the craftsman who built this iron hand for him
He was killed by him immediately after the completion of the work, even among the Jiangnan Ming family, there were only a few people who knew his secret very trusted, and in addition, all the people who had seen this iron hand were already dead, and there was no chance to divulge his secret to the outside world.
It's like Zeng Yuanwai, whose neck was broken just now.
Now, this nail-like man has been added.
He was in no hurry to kill the nail, because in his eyes, the nail was no different from a dead man, just a matter of sooner or later.
His immediate priority was to catch up with the fat man who had escaped, and as for the nails, he could go back and clean them up.
A cruel smile appeared in the joint hands of the old man Ming, the iron hand was clenched, and only a "click" was heard, and one of the nails' arm bones shattered, and it drooped softly.
The pain was intense, but the nail didn't scream, just snorted.
Old Man Ming was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the reason why this nail-like man endured and didn't shout was because he didn't want his screams to spread and be heard by the fat man who ran away in front, which affected the fat man's determination to escape.
Can't let him get his wish!
Old Man Ming's figure moved, crossed the nail of the broken arm, and bounced back to chase the fleeing fat man.
But as soon as he saw it, this man with one arm hanging down used that strange way to block himself like an iron nail.
Although his head was full of beads of sweat the size of beans, and he hung a useless arm, he clenched the dagger with the only arm left, and stood firmly in front of him with his waist bent, blocking the way.
Seeing that the fat man's back was about to disappear, Old Man Ming became a little anxious, he was too lazy to talk nonsense, and directly shot and broke the remaining arm of the nail.
The nail still just snorted, and didn't hold back his screams.
However, when Old Man Ming jumped up again, ready to chase after Zhang Fatzi, he appeared in front of Old Man Ming again with two arms hanging down, blocking the way!
Old Man Ming was a little stunned, the person in front of him had his hands gone, panting, swaying in pain and almost unsteady, but he still looked at him resolutely in front of him, covering the fat man to escape, what kind of person is this?
If you say that your right hand is made of steel, and the will of the person in front of you is more like it is made of steel, and it has not wavered at all, even if the arms are crippled, but still standing firmly in front of you, even if you hit your head and bite with your teeth, you have to block yourself.
This is simply not a person, yes, he is called a nail, he is an out-and-out iron nail!
No matter who is targeted by him, it will be absolutely difficult to get out!
Old Man Ming looked up, and after such a delay, the back of the fat man had disappeared now.
Old Man Ming exhaled a long breath, and a sense of frustration surged in his heart.
He hadn't felt this way in a long time.
The last time I felt this way was on Mt. Jungnami.
At that time, he thought that he had been practicing hard for twenty years, and when he heard that the opponent he wanted to defeat, Wudang Zhang Sanfeng Zhenren of a generation of grandmasters, appeared on Zhongnan Mountain, so he rushed over with great ambition.
In the end, he lost a move in Zhang Sanfeng's hands and returned home, at that time he also understood that he could never catch up with Zhang Sanfeng's martial arts realm, at that time, he had such a frustration in his heart.
But now, he is only facing an opponent whose strength is far inferior to his own, no matter how strong his martial arts are, even if the opponent's arms are crippled, he has never been able to break the opponent's will, and the frustration in his heart at this time is even stronger than being defeated under Zhang Sanfeng's hands.
He didn't like it so much, and he was going to break it.
Old Man Ming turned his head to look at the nail that was gasping for breath, and a cruel glint flashed in his eyes.
Although he admired the man in front of him, although he admired this man's iron will, but unfortunately, this world is about strength, not will.
His body shook, his right hand shot out like lightning, and a pair of nails with a pair of knee bones cracked, and in a muffled snort, he couldn't stand, and he fell to his knees all at once.
He is known for his light skills, and now that his legs are useless, he still can't help but shout, and this perseverance makes Old Man Ming can't help but be moved.
Old Man Ming sighed, it seems that it is impossible to destroy this person's will, he is really like an iron nail that would rather be bent, there is no other way than to destroy his body.
Old Man Ming was a little tired of this kind of game, or he couldn't bear to continue to destroy such a person, so he raised his right hand cast iron.
Nail held his head high, staring at Old Man Ming's face with wide eyes, his eyes were full of anger and unyielding, without a trace of fear, until these eyes completely lost their brilliance.
Old Man Ming shattered his Heavenly Spirit Cover, and he who was once firm like an iron nail now fell softly into the dust.
But the last impression he left on Old Man Ming was still the high head and the momentum that would rather bend like an iron nail.
Old Man Ming shook his head, he really couldn't understand what was going on in the mind of this kind of person, knowing that the result would be like this, but he still sacrificed his life for others without hesitation, what is the relationship between that fat man and him, and it is worth such a sacrifice?
People like him may never understand why the moment the nail dies, there is no fear on his face, but instead a sense of relief and relief.
He finally paid off everything with his life, and he no longer owes anyone anything.
There are so many people in this world who have all kinds of strange ideas, and they think that there are all kinds of reasons in the world that lead them to sacrifice their lives for righteousness, to pursue something more important than their own lives.
This kind of thing is incomprehensible to people like Old Man Ming who only have themselves in their hearts.
However, it is these strange and varied that make up the colorful and beautiful world in front of our eyes.
Isn't it?
Old Man Ming looked down at the nail's corpse and sighed lightly: "Do you think that your sacrifice can make the little fat man escape? ”
He put his hands behind his back, and looked at the direction where Zhang Fatzi disappeared with some interest, as if he felt deep regret for the vain sacrifice of the nail.
......
Zhang Fatzi is still running away with all his might.
He didn't know what was happening behind him, and he didn't know what kind of sacrifice Uncle Nail had made for him.
Although he was also worried about Uncle Nail in his heart, since Old Man Ming didn't come to chase him, he must have chased Uncle Nail.
But he knows very well that his injured body has greatly reduced the performance of light skills, and his current state is far inferior to that of his senior brother Uncle Nail, and only by running with all his might can he exchange for a glimmer of life.
So he has no distractions, is engrossed, single-minded, and flees!
I don't know how long it has been, maybe he has escaped far away, and his heart gradually relaxed.
I wonder if Uncle Nail got out?
The thought in his heart had just flashed like this, and his figure suddenly stopped.
Because in front of him, a man was standing there smiling at him.
This was a face he was very familiar with, the face of his brother Ye Feng since he was a child, but this smile seemed to be full of an indescribable evil feeling.
Mingyu Building!
