Champion Bridge.

There are dozens of champion bridges in the world, but this champion bridge is the only one named after the champion who has no name. At that time, Zhao Kai, the king of Yun, was outstanding, secretly participated in the imperial examination, and won the champion in one fell swoop, and later after Huizong learned about it, he promoted the second to the champion, and the king of Yun built the bridge with the gold and silver rewarded by the emperor.

It is now hundreds of years old.

Xiao Jinyan and others braved the heavy rain to come to the Zhuangyuan Bridge, the bridge head was a mess, lying on the corpses, the rain washed the blood into the Bianhe River, dyed red.

Thunder roared.

Xiao Jinyan stepped forward to look at the corpse, "It's all a one-knife killing, and it's true that the cross-cutting knife method is true." ”

Li Chengcheng said: "It's just that the knife technique is not as smooth as before, you see this knife." He pointed to a corpse, although he cut off the person's waist, but it was obvious that the internal force was not continuous, and the incision was not sharp enough, obviously there were traces of secondary force. It seems that Zhao Lanjiang's injury is really not light. ”

Being able to lure the Hidden Sun King here, first poisoning, and then wheel warfare, drove him to a desperate situation.

The person who came up with this plan was definitely not human.

Xiao Jinyan said, "Zhao Lanjiang's knife is invincible with killing intent. The heavier the killing, the stronger the sword intent. In the face of many encirclements and suppressions, as long as he does not die today, the sword technique will definitely advance to a new realm, and you may not be able to win tomorrow's battle. ”

Li Chengcheng said lightly: "I just want to have a good fight." ”

Now the plan is to find Zhao Lanjiang and help him get rid of the poison of the Bliss Grass. Xiao Jinyan asked, "Can you sense Lao Zhao?"

Li Chengcheng also shook his head, "Since I entered Bianliang, I can't sense him anymore." ”

The three of them are all great masters of the realm of heaven and man, in the battle between Xiao Jinyan and Wang Banxian, Zhao Lanjiang and Li Chengcheng could sense it thousands of miles away, and sent out a knife and a sword, but in the small Kaifeng Mansion, the two of them could not detect the existence of Zhao Lanjiang, this kind of hidden kung fu is indeed good.

Xiao Jinyan looked at the bridgehead, and there was a stone pier broken, which should have been stepped on when Zhao Barrage River fell into the water.

The river flows eastward.

Zhao Lanjiang must be hiding in some corner in the east of the city.

......

Cheng.

A swordsman, crawling to the shore from the lower reaches of the river, staggering. The knife man had four or five stab wounds on his body, some of which were white under the river water, but the blood still oozed out, staining his clothes red. The knife wound was traumatic after all, and the most serious wound was an arrow in the shoulder, which directly pierced his shoulder blade, not to mention lifting the knife, and it was extremely difficult to even lift it.

The swordsman endured the severe pain, gritted his teeth and cut off the cluster of arrows, pulling the arrows out of his back.

It's already night, and the sound of rain and thunder mixes together.

At this moment, the whole city of Kaifeng City was full of soldiers, shouting and barking dogs came, and the military and people in the rivers and lakes were arresting him everywhere. Fortunately, it rained heavily, the view above the watchtower was not enough, and the news transmitted by the drum tower was also drowned out by bursts of thunder, which was the only advantage in this extremely harsh environment.

The swordsman carefully concealed his figure, he picked up a hat from a place on the side of the road that had not had time to evacuate, put it on his head, and changed into a shirt. However, the golden knife was too conspicuous, and he found another rag and wrapped it around, leaving only a hilt. The repeated battles and excessive blood loss made him tired and tired, but he couldn't be careless.

A team of Jianghu people walked in front of him.

The swordsman instinctively wanted to dodge, but the other party had already spotted him, and he raised the golden knife in his hand and met it. The person on the other side, apparently taking him as a hunter, shouted, "Did you see the thief?"

The swordsman shook his head and said in an urn voice: "Lao Tzu has turned over three streets here, but he has not found his whereabouts." ”

Those humanitarians, "That thief is ferocious and strong in martial arts, if Brother Tai doesn't dislike it, why don't we chase and kill it together?" Anyway, the credit is too great, and we can't eat it alone

It's better to join forces, and there is a response when you encounter thieves. ”

The swordsman pondered, if he didn't agree, it would inevitably arouse their suspicions, and now he happened to take this opportunity to blend into the crowd, but it became a kind of cover, and it would be easier to get out when the time came, so he agreed.

The leader of the humanitarian, "In the Xialingnan Sword Sect Ye Yu, these people Jingling sent Long Wu and Long Liu, and Qingcheng sent Li Huha. I don't know what Your Excellency is called?"

The swordsman said: "In Xia Zhao Erbao, a nobody in the rivers and lakes, come here to have a good time." ”

The crowd searched the streets together.

The swordsman wanted to find a secluded place, but he was afraid of revealing his identity, so he endured the pain and walked with them. Seeing that they had been searching in the northwest, northwest, and south directions, but they did not go to the east of the city, they couldn't help but be curious and asked why.

Ye Yu said, "I don't know what Zhongliuhou thinks, anyway, we received an order to search and arrest in this area, once we find a thief, warn first, and we can't fight." ”

With that, he handed a cloud-piercing arrow to the swordsman.

The swordsman looked at the cloud-piercing arrow, it seemed that it was for the military, and it seemed that the king of Yu and the king of Shu had spared no effort to deal with him. After patrolling three or four more streets, they also met people from several other sects, as well as two teams of officers and soldiers, who took a look at each other, reminded each other a few words, and continued to search and arrest.

Syllable!

Three streets away, an arrow pierced through the clouds and rose into the sky.

Ye Yu said, "The thief is over there!"

After that, everyone rushed over there and came to the corner of the street, Ye Yu waved his hand, and everyone stopped. The swordsman asked, "Why don't you go?"

Ye Yu smiled, "Brother Zhao doesn't know, although the thief was seriously injured, but his martial arts are strong, and he will be sent to death if he goes up, it is better to wait for the rabbit here and reap the benefits of the fisherman. On the contrary, use your brain. Counting this wave, we have followed thirteen rounds of pursuits, but we have not made a move, why? ”

The swordsman was secretly in his heart, it turned out that they thought so.

Fortunately, otherwise, if they flocked to the top, they might not be able to withstand it.

Not only them, but the swordsman saw that there were also several groups of people around, watching from a distance.

After a long time, there was no reaction from the other side, and after a while, Long Wu and Long Liu, who went to explore the way, came back and said, "It's a signal accidentally sent by the lame third man, damn it, I suspect that he has his own legs and feet, and after being released a few times, he deliberately retaliated against us!"

Everyone returned to the area they were responsible for.

Over time, the Knife Men have mastered their search methods. Implement grid management for the entire Kaifeng City, each team is responsible for a district, once there is a movement, timely warning, and then wait for other masters and troops to come to support. If this is the case, he is still safe among the people in Ye Yu, but once he leaves this block, there is still a risk of exposure.

At this time, they came to the place where the swordsman had stolen his clothes.

Long Wu's eyes were sharp, "There is bloody clothes here!"

Ye Yu said, "It seems that he changed his clothes and absconded, but the thief was seriously injured and was hit by an arrow in the shoulder, so he couldn't escape far." ”

Long Liu suddenly asked, "I saw that this Brother Zhao, from beginning to end, his right arm has not moved, could it be that he was injured?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked vigilant and looked at the swordsman.

The swordsman wanted to fool the past, but who expected that such a small detail would be discovered by these people. He laughed aloud, "It's a left-handed knife in the next place." ”

"Take off your hat and let's see. ”

Hearing this, the swordsman took off his hat, revealing a young face.

"It doesn't look like Zhao Lanjiang. ”

"Who knows if it's a transfiguration?"

"Raise your right arm. ”

knife

The guest gripped the hilt of the knife and raised his right arm.

The wound that had been stopped was pulled and oozed red.

The swordsman said coldly: "Are you satisfied?"

Ye Yu and the others saw the wounds on his body, and there was a murderous intent in their tones, and their eyes showed a look of horror. Unexpectedly, the Golden Sword King they had been searching for was right next to them. Ye Yu even reached into his arms, preparing to send a warning from the cloud-piercing arrow, but the swordsman did not give them any chance.

The golden knife flashed.

Four heads hit the ground.

The swordsman slammed his knife on the ground, showing a tired look. However, he dragged the four corpses into a corner, covered them with straw mats, and then came to another block, and sent a cloud-piercing arrow to lure the search party past and return to the previous neighborhood.

By the end of this process, he was exhausted.

Not far away, he saw a house with an oil lamp lit, and he forced himself to the door.

Bang Bang Bang!

He immediately fainted at the other party's door.

When he woke up, he saw a middle-aged couple in front of him, and the middle-aged man was holding an oil lamp and staring at him with the help of dim lights.

"Where am I?"

The man said, "Our old couple saw you fainting outside and dragged you in." What happened to this strong man outside? After a while, the officers and soldiers, and the people in the rivers and lakes, came here to ask three or four questions. ”

The first thought on the swordsman was that it wasn't safe here.

The woman said, "I heard that there has been a thief in the city recently, and he is very skillful, which has made people panic now. By the way, I heard that the man had a golden knife in his hand, such a valuable thing, but it was used to kill people, what a pity, what a pity!"

The swordsman glanced at the table and was relieved to see that his long knife was still wrapped in his old clothes.

It seems that the other party does not know his identity.

The man said, "Don't talk nonsense, we ordinary people, what do you have to worry about for those nobles in the imperial city, let's go and serve a bowl of porridge first." ”

After a while, a bowl of steaming millet porridge was served, and the swordsman got up and drank it in one go. Since yesterday, he has encountered thirty or forty battles, the rice is not exhausted, and he has been seriously injured, he is already exhausted, after eating a bowl of porridge, his strength has recovered a little, only to feel a wave of fatigue hit, he fell asleep.

In a haze, he heard the middle-aged couple talking.

"Boss, how is this good, I just peeked at the knife, the gold is shining, this young man is very likely to be the bandit that the court wants to hunt. ”

The man said: "He didn't provoke us, it's a big deal to wait for him to wake up and send him away." ”

The woman said, "I'm afraid that if others know, we will also be guilty of joint sitting." ”

"What should I do then? Why don't I report to the police?"

The woman said, "You go and report to the official, I am a woman, what should I do here? If he takes a fancy to my beauty and beastly nature, I am not his opponent." ”

The man said: "He is asleep now, or I will trap him first, guard him here, and you go to the official to arrest him." ”

The two were deliberating, when someone suddenly said, "No need. ”

The two of them were shocked when they saw the swordsman wake up.

The swordsman said: "I heard what I said just now. ”

The man said, "The strong man spares his life, and we are also blinded by lard." ”

The woman also said, "Yes, we saved your life anyway, but if you leave now, we will pretend that nothing has happened and that nothing has happened." ”

The swordsman hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm sorry." ”

A single knife fell, and two people were killed.

The swordsman lifted his knife, dragged his heavy body, and disappeared into the rain.
