Chapter 101: Two Sword Formations
Shen Chaixing and Linglong'er were taken aback when they heard someone talking behind them, and hurriedly turned around to watch. I saw a gray-robed old man standing proudly under the pine tree a foot away behind him, tall, with a wrinkled face, a white beard fluttering on his chest, his face was slightly sad, but his eyes were like electricity. His left hand was behind his back, but his right arm was tied blankly at the sleeve of his robe.
Shen Chaixing saw that he had been caught, and hurriedly explained with a smile: "The old man misunderstood, our sister and brother are guests of the villa, and it is purely accidental that we came here, and I hope you will forgive me." The tone was very respectful, and he also gave a deep salute.
Who knew that the one-armed old man didn't buy it, and rolled his eyes strangely and said: "When all the spies were caught, it was the same statement you just had, it's not surprising, you change the way you say it again." ”
Linglong'er said: "The person who brought us in is called Duanmu Chongjian, just ask him." ”
The strange old man frowned and said, "You mean Duanmu brought you here? This place is a forbidden place, so you must not enter." ”
Shen Chaixing explained: "That's not it, Duanmu placed us in the living room and waited. We heard the sound of swords clashing in the backyard and thought something was going on, so we came to take a look. ”
At this time, the warriors in the main hall heard someone's voice, and walked out one after another, and when they saw Shen Chaixing and Linglong'er looking unfamiliar, they immediately drew their swords and surrounded the two.
The old man broke off and shouted: "Bring these two spies into the main hall, so that they can be investigated." All the warriors claimed yes and escorted them into the main hall.
After entering the main hall, Shen Chaixing saw Duanmu and Shi Wuxing sitting inside, and immediately saw the savior, pointed to Duanmu Chongjian and said to the old man: "Old man, Duanmu is here, you can ask him." ”
The old man walked forward and asked sharply, "Duanmu, did you bring these two people into the villa?"
Duanmu stood up respectfully and said, "Master, the disciple has been here all this time, has never left, and I don't know these two. ”
Linglong'er became anxious when she heard this: "Obviously you asked us to wait for you in the living room, you said to arrange the horses, why don't you admit it now?"
Duanmu was puzzled: "I've been here, you said you were waiting for me in the living room, how could you be here? ”
Linglong'er was so angry that she couldn't speak, and Shen Chaixing said to Shi Wuxing on the side: "Brother Shi, you should always know me, right?
Who knew that Shi Wuxing showed a strange look, neither nodding nor shaking his head, and froze on the spot.
Seeing this, the old man said to the two of them sharply: "Now that the matter is over, what else do you two have to say?" It stands to reason that the rules of this villa are to treat trespassers without mercy, but seeing that the two of you don't look like spies, I'm giving you a chance now. ”
Speaking of this, the old man looked at Shen Chaixing carrying the long sword, and said: "Since this is the Famous Sword Villa, and Your Excellency is carrying the long sword, let's compare the sword! Give you three chances to break through, if you win, I will arrange horses, send the two away, and if you lose, you will stay here for the rest of your life!" With a wave of his hand, seven blue-clothed warriors put on a sword formation.
That Shen Chasing Star looked at this formation, and remembered that Lan Yue had told himself about several common formations, the Liangyi Array, the Sancai Array, the Four Phase Array, the Five Elements Array, the Seven Star Array, the Bagua Array, the Nine Palace Array, and the Ten Sides Ambush Array, these formations can be used for group battles in the martial arts, but also on the battlefield, and if you are proficient in the principle, you can also use it to crack or set up mechanisms.
Lan Yue said: The easiest way to crack a formation or mechanism is to find the location of the formation eye, and destroy the formation eye in the fastest way or activate the mechanism at the formation eye.
Seeing this situation, Linglong'er hurriedly shouted: "This is too unfair, seven of them fight one!" The old man smiled: "This is a formation, not seven people, if you have the ability, you can find seven people, I definitely have no opinion." Linglong'er saw that this old man seemed to be more unreasonable than her, and she was so angry that she had nothing to say.
The change in the formation of the seven swords surrounded Shen Chaixing. Shen Chaixing remembered something, and suddenly said, "Wait a minute, at least give me a sword!"
The old man smiled and said, "Is it a burning stick on your back?" The people around listened to it, and they all laughed, and there was a crisp female voice mixed in, Shen Chaixing looked at it, and there was actually a girl of the same age as himself in the crowd watching the battle, who was staring at himself with big black eyes, and when he saw Shen Chaixing noticing her, he suddenly laughed sweetly.
Shen Chaixing suddenly felt very interesting in his heart, and the original competition between life and death became like a game, thinking, I can't use the "burning stick" on my back, otherwise I will show that I will not be able to do it, so I simply won them with my bare hands, and also convinced them. Thinking of this, the pride suddenly became angry, a long roar, and suddenly rose into the air, the swordsmen were stunned at first, it turned out that the usual drills were to practice with the enemy on the flat ground as an imaginary enemy, at this moment the enemy was in a high place, and when he didn't know how to respond to the enemy together, everyone looked at one of them, Shen Chasing Xing saw that this person must be the eye of the formation, and he was also the person in charge of the command in the sword array.
The man reacted quickly, and when he saw Shen Chasing Star flying into the air, he immediately pointed the long sword in his hand into the air, but when Shen Chasing Star fell, the rest of the people also pointed the sword in their hands at the enemy in the air according to the position of the formation.
Which Shen chasing star will not fall, and suddenly struck a "splitting palm" into the formation.
Shen Chaixing originally just wanted to volley out a palm, and use the power of this palm to stay in the air for a moment and shift on the side of ventilation, so that the opponent could miscalculate his position. I didn't know that in the early morning today, after absorbing the qi of heaven and earth to yin through a long roar, my skills have improved again, and this palm is like a substance, and it has played the power of "splitting the empty palm"!
The person who led the formation was also very good, although he had never been in contact with this kind of palm technique, but someone had already told Shen Chasing Xing in advance that his martial arts were unconventional, and his internal strength was surprisingly high.
With a "bang", the palm force hit the sword body, and there was a substantial sound, as if a wooden stick containing real power hit the sword body, the man couldn't stand it, and "Tengteng" took two steps back, and the formation was suddenly disrupted.
Shen Chaixing followed the original design, and his body moved two feet in the air with the power of this palm, and fell behind everyone, his hands lightly lay on the ground, and his right leg swept out a sweeping leg to the left, and the three of them were swept to the ground.
Shen Chaixing saw that this move was good, the center of gravity shifted to the right, becoming a right leg support, the left leg swept back, and a beautiful back sweep leg swept to the three of them, at this time, only the leader of the formation did not fall, and at the same time stabbed his left shoulder with a sword.
Shen Chaixing didn't seem to move, and when the tip of the sword was still three inches from his shoulder, he suddenly shook his body, and he had already shook the blade of the sword, and his body was close to the man, his left knee was not bent, his body sank, and his left shoulder was leaning under the man's armpit.
The armpit part of the human body has the most acupuncture points, and Shen Chaixing just lightly emitted a true qi, and the person was numb, and the sword in his hand fell. Shen Chaixing gently took it in his hand and returned it to the man with both hands, and the warrior couldn't help but thank him, and his admiration was overflowing.
The old man laughed and even said, "Good, good", because he had no right arm, so he had to pat his big belly with his left hand instead of applauding.
When Linglong'er saw that Shen Chasing Star had won, she immediately said to the old man: "We won, don't lead the horse to see us off!"
The old man shook his head and said, "No, you lost, saying that it was like trying swordsmanship, but this son of your family played with fists and feet and didn't follow the rules, so you lost." ”
Linglong'er stomped her feet angrily, eager to pounce on the old man's beard to relieve her anger, and had the heart to scold a few sentences, but she didn't dare, for fear that the other party would really be detained here for a lifetime, it would not be fun, and she hurriedly looked at Shen Chaixing.
Shen Chaixing smiled and nodded at her. At this moment, although Shen Chaixing didn't know the true purpose of the other party, he also felt that there seemed to be no malicious intent, so he calmed down, and after comforting Linglong'er with his eyes, he made up his mind not to hurt the other party no matter what.
The old man smiled at Shen Chaixing and said, "Boy, you really have you." Now I'll give you a second chance, this time with a sword!" With a wave of his hand, a group of warriors held swords in a circle and surrounded Shen Chaixing.
Linglong'er counted on the side, and this time there were thirteen sword-wielding warriors.
The thirteen long swords swayed slightly up and down in the hands of the thirteen swordsmen, and when they were carefully observed, they did not move at will, but according to certain laws.
Although it was daylight at the moment, the hall was still brightly lit, and the slightly trembling long sword constantly reflected the light of the lamp, as if the sun was shining on the lake, sparkling.
Seeing this, Shen Chaixing suddenly took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes at the same time. The true qi in the body runs endlessly, generating a powerful aura and perceiving everything around it. His hands were down, and his sword was still unsheathed.
The circular sword array originally used light to disturb the opponent's mind, and the effect was especially good in the outdoor sunlight. But Shen Chaixing closed his eyes and naturally broke this method, but ordinary people would not have such a powerful aura as Shen Chaixing, so closing his eyes was no different from sending him to death.
The thirteen swordsmen saw Shen Chaixing close their eyes, knowing that Shen Chaixing would not take the initiative to attack, one of them let out a low shout, and at the same time, all the swords fired together, stabbing at Shen Chaixing's temple, Renzhong acupoint, Jizhong acupoint, Juque acupoint, Guan Yuan acupoint, Qimen acupoint, Zhangmen acupoint, Kidney Yu acupoint, Mingmen acupoint, Qihai acupoint, Shoulder Well acupoint, Zusanli acupoint, Sanyin Jiao, a total of thirteen acupoints.
These thirteen swordsmen are usually well-trained, and practice with dummy carved acupuncture points every day, and have reached a very proficient level, and they can also stab the dummy acupuncture points at the same time with their eyes closed, without deviation, and they have an accurate grasp of proportion, and they can send and receive freely.
When the swordsmen surrounded him and had not yet launched, Shen Chaixing stood with his eyes closed, motionless like a mountain. But at the moment when the thirteen swordsmen launched at the same time, Shen Chaixing also moved, and it moved like lightning! Shen Chaixing drew his sword, swung his sword, and collected his sword.
Everyone's eyes lit up, as if a bolt of lightning lit up the hall, and a loud bang was heard. When he looked at it again, everything had calmed down, Shen Chaixing was still standing in place, but he had opened his eyes, and the sword was still in the original position behind him, as if nothing had happened. It's just that the long swords of thirteen swordsmen broke at the same time at a foot and five inches, not an inch more, and an inch not less. The loud bang turned out to be the sound of thirteen swords being cut almost simultaneously.
Everyone stayed for a moment before they saw the situation clearly, and immediately the applause was thunderous, and the cheers resounded through the hall.
