Chapter 33: The Long Sword is Like a Rainbow

The man led by Xu Zhijian was wearing a white shirt and holding a sword, it was Jiang Chao, the young gang leader of the Jiang Temple, who was known as the "first sword in the world", and behind him stood the black and white Shuangsha and a group of disciples of the Jiang Temple.

Xu Shangshang stepped forward and arched his hand with Jiang Chao, and said with a smile: "Gang Master Jiang, you and I Caizhou said goodbye in a hurry, I didn't expect to meet again in this mountain." Your Excellency is thousands of miles away, leading the brothers in the gang to ambush on this desolate Clam Mountain, pretending to be a tiger, wouldn't it be to scare the hunters in the mountain?"

Jiang Chao returned the salute to Xu Zhi and sneered: "I have always been straightforward in my actions, and I am not used to having something to say like Brother Xu." To tell you the truth, I came to Ruzhou at this time just for Brother Xu!"

When Xu Zhi heard this, he laughed and said, "Come for me?" Xu Zhi is alone, penniless, has no sect, and has no value to use, Brother Jiang is telling jokes, right?"

Xue Atan saw that the situation was not right, and asked worriedly: "Yes, Gang Leader Jiang, you won't have a grudge against Brother Xu!", after speaking, he secretly pulled Xu Zhi, implying that he had a lot of people on the other side, and the heroes would not suffer the losses in front of them.

Jiang Chao did not answer Xue Atan's question, but turned his head away, glanced at He Mengjiao, and was attracted by He Mengjiao's beautiful appearance. He Mengjiao saw Jiang Chao staring at him with frivolous eyes, and quickly turned around.

Jiang Chao saw He Mengjiao hiding behind Xue Atan, with her back to herself, before she came back to her senses and sighed: "Xu Zhi, you kid is really a peach blossom, Huang Chao's selection of horses was accidentally hit by your kid, and he won the first place and won the heart of the beauty." Now you can't do it, what dirty means do you use to deceive such a beautiful little girl?", after speaking, he pursed his lips and smiled lewdly, and a group of helpers behind him also laughed when they heard it.

He Mengjiao saw that although Jiang Chao was handsome, he spoke disdainfully, knowing that this person was not a decent gentleman, and sneered: "Actually, I don't have much to do with this surnamed Xu, the grievances and hatreds between you, you have nothing to do with me to solve them by yourself, but the surname Jiang, you are disrespectful today, this girl will teach you a good lesson!"

After He Mengjiao finished speaking, she raised the sickle in her hand and rushed towards Jiang Chao. Jiang Chao stood still and did not move, as if he was blind to He Mengjiao's sneak attack, the black and white double evil behind him had already stepped forward, raised the iron whip and gold mace in his hand, and fought with He Mengjiao.

Xu Zhi saw that He Mengjiao was surrounded by black and white ghosts, and it was very difficult to fight with one enemy and two enemies, so he deliberately said to Jiang Chao: "Gang leader Jiang, your Jiang Temple is also a famous gang, how do you like the elders to bully the younger generations, two fight one!"

Hei Sha replied: "Hehe, surnamed Xu, you don't know this! We do everything together, eat together, sleep together, fight with others, and never separate! Lao Bai, don't you say?" After speaking, he used the whip in his hand to block He Mengjiao's slash.

Bai Sha raised the vajra and smashed it at the back of He Mengjiao's head, and replied proudly: "Yes, Lao Hei! Our brothers have never been separated since they came down from their mother's womb, in fact, it is okay to be separated, unless we both die!", laughed out loud after speaking.

Seeing that Bai Sha had no scruples about speaking, Hei Sha scolded: "Bah, I said Lao Bai, why are you cursing yourself to death?"

Bai Xue was a little confused, and asked rhetorically: "Lao Hei, did I say it? Did you say it yourself?", and stopped attacking He Mengjiao after speaking.

The black scolded: "I said old ghost, can you still fight? If you want to be lazy, I will also rest!"

Bai Sha replied: "Why don't you fight, haven't you won or lost with that little girl?", and after speaking, he smashed He Mengjiao's right shoulder.

Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they saw the black and white ghosts competing with He Mengjiao and teasing each other!

He Mengjiao was not as relaxed as black and white, she listened to everyone's conversations, and was engrossed in meeting the enemy, but she was still gradually at a disadvantage, she just lowered her head to avoid Bai Sha's blow, her strength was a little insufficient, and her feet were almost swept by the black whip. In fact, the kung fu of the Changjiao Gang pays more attention to fighting with the opponent alone in a small boat, so it is more important than the change of moves, so the kung fu of the sword is not its strength;

Bai Sha and Hei Sha cooperated like one person, they sometimes hit He Mengjiao's back, and sometimes hit He Mengjiao's head and lower limbs. He Mengjiao couldn't cope for a while, so she had to take a few steps back, dodging the whips and whips of the black and white, and then carefully turned to the side of the two and attacked one of them, so that the black and white couldn't care about each other.

Black and white are dual-minded, laughing in front of everyone and showing off their means, while trying to capture He Mengjiao's helper alive, so although He Mengjiao is in adversity, he can turn the corner from danger. Seeing that He Mengjiao was like a loach, he couldn't catch it if he wanted to, and scolded: "This little girl is really cunning, tired of our two elders!"

Jiang Chao didn't understand the reason, and when he saw that the black and white were led by a little girl, he reminded: "Black and white messenger, you are really stupid, you can't hit this little girl back and forth, so that she can't worry about the front and back!"

Black and white were afraid that their gang leader would blame, so they didn't dare to play slowly with He Mengjiao anymore, showing off their methods, so they immediately changed their attack strategy, and turned to He Mengjiao's left and right, front and back, and both sides, one person attacked the main one, and the other person sneaked attacked.

He Mengjiao saw that the black and white double-stricken, changed her previous casual style of play, and used all her strength to attack herself with a fast attack, and she couldn't support it after barely receiving twenty moves.

Xu Zhi saw that the sickle in He Mengjiao's hand was also knocked to the ground by the black and white ghosts, and was about to help, when he suddenly saw Jiang Chao shouting: "The two messengers of black and white stop for the time being, I have something to ask this girl." ”

Seeing that the deputy gang leader suddenly spoke, the black and white quickly stopped respectfully, but they still surrounded He Mengjiao.

Jiang Chao took a few steps closer and asked, "Forgive Jiang for offending just now, the girl is a disciple of Governor Yue's Jiao Gang, do you know Jiang Lao's gang leader?"

He Mengjiao was still angry about the fact that black and white ignored the rules of the rivers and lakes and besieged herself, and scolded: "The surname Jiang, you don't have to act coy at this time, your Jiang Shenmiao's temperament is just like this, you like to bully the weak and bully the small, how about this girl being a disciple of the Changjiao Gang?

Jiang Chao smiled all over his face and said: "I see that the girl's martial arts are the same as He Menglong's routine of Deputy Gang Leader, so I conclude that the girl should have some relationship with the Changjiao Gang, in fact, our Jiang Shenmiao and the Changjiao Gang have always been friendly, no, now our two gangs have come to Ruzhou together to find Xu Zhi to avenge Deputy Gang Leader He!"

Xu Zhi sneered: "The purpose of Gang Leader Jiang's trip is by no means as simple as seeking revenge, besides, I Xu Zhi and your faction don't have any deep hatred, you join forces with the Changjiao Gang, I'm afraid there is another ulterior purpose, right?"

Jiang Chao laughed a few times: "Xu Zhi, you are so smart, I underestimated you, let's be honest with you, it was the people of the Changjiao Gang who followed you all the way here, and we just followed behind!

Xu Zhi asked, "You came thousands of miles to find me, what are you for?"

Jiang Chao smiled and said: "Xu Zhi, you are now related to the fate of the entire martial arts, you may never have dreamed that the rivers and lakes will spread all over the world overnight, and the secret of the "Tui Bei Tu" that determines the fate of the world is on you, I am afraid that the whole rivers and lakes are looking for you now! Our Jiang Shenmiao is just lucky, we found you first!"

When Xu Zhi heard this, he was secretly taken aback, and thought to himself: Who is trying to harm me? Deliberately spreading such rumors? But he still kept silent and pretended not to know: "Brother Jiang, what kind of picture did you just say, why don't I know? Does it have anything to do with me?"

Jiang Chao didn't allow Xu Zhi to explain, and continued: "So the purpose of our visit this time is to invite Brother Xu to go to the main altar of the Jiangzhou Sect, and we will treat him as a distinguished guest, otherwise we will ......."

Xu Zhi interrupted: "Otherwise, you won't forcibly kidnap Xu to Jiangshan as a guest!"

Jiang Chao saw that Xu Zhi didn't agree, hehe heheed twice, and scolded: "The surname Xu, you don't want to toast and not eat, eat and drink, if you have the ability, you will first win this white rainbow sword in my hand!"

After Jiang Chao finished speaking, he pulled out the sword from his hand, only to see that as soon as the sword came out of the sheath, it was like a white rainbow crossing the sky, emitting a faint white light and a buzzing sound.

Xu Zhi said: "I am going to be taught!", after speaking, he made a move to "fight and turn the stars", turned to the side of a disciple of Jiang Shenmiao, and when the other party was unprepared, he easily snatched the long sword in his hand.

Jiang Chao saw that Xu Zhi was determined to oppose Jiang Shenmiao, picked up the white rainbow sword, and greeted him.

Although Xu Zhi had learned swordsmanship from Ling Kong, he rarely used swords, and he was unclear about Jiang Chao's sword moves, so he had to hold the sword to guard the door and strike later. Jiang Chao relied on his swordsmanship, shook the white rainbow sword in his hand, and only attacked but not defended. The sword move was very strange, moving as the body flipped over, like pieces of plum blossoms blowing in the wind.

Xu Zhi didn't dare to be careless, and hurriedly raised his sword to meet him, the two swords intersected, only to hear a loud sound, Xu Zhi's long sword was broken into two, but Jiang Chao's long sword was intact.

Xue Atan saw that the long sword in Xu Zhi's hand was broken, and hurriedly threw the sickle in his hand to him, Xu Zhi caught it easily, this time he didn't dare to confront Jiang Chao head-on, so he had to defend passively everywhere, whenever Jiang Chao's long sword stabbed out, Xu Zhi would jump back more than ten steps to avoid the blade.

Jiang Chao saw that Xu Zhi was always avoiding everywhere, and he didn't dare to fight him head-on, so he provoked him: "Xu Zhi, when will it be the end of your hiding and hiding like this, it is better to give your grandfather Jiang a few kowtows, and grandpa will spare your dog's life!"

The black and white led the disciples and laughed loudly: "The surname is Xu, you are a turtle with a shrunken head, you don't dare to confront our Jiang gang leader head-on, just blindly dodge, what kind of hero is it? It's better to find a hole to get into!"

Xu Zhi saw that Jiang Chao and the others were disrespectful and wanted to deliberately provoke himself, but he adhered to the essence of Wudang's internal strength, and was not moved at all, still calm and calm, waving a sickle to protect his portal.

Jiang Chao stabbed out another sword, seeing that Xu Zhi was retreating again, he secretly made a move to "open twice", he crossed the top of Xu Zhi's head, jumped to a big tree behind Xu Zhi, the long sword crossed a white arc in the air, the sword qi swept by, and actually cut the fallen leaves in the woods into neat pieces, Jiang Chao did not wait for Xu Zhi to respond, and stabbed Xu Zhi's back from the opposite direction.

Xue Atan and He Mengjiao shouted at the same time, "Not good!"

Xu Zhi saw that Jiang Chao's move was done in one go, and he could jump back and forth between several trees in front and back, left and right, attacking in different directions to himself, as fast as an ape, knowing that if he kept avoiding and misjudged, he would inevitably die under his sword. Xu Zhi was in a hurry, and he also jumped up from the ground, followed Jiang Chao to jump to a big tree in front of him, and then used the elasticity of the branches with his feet to do a backflip, making a move "Changhong Penetrating the Sun" to attack Jiang Chao from behind.

He Mengjiao saw Xu Zhi make this sword move, and applauded loudly: "This move is really clever, if it is not a sickle, it is a little shorter, but a long sword, I am afraid that it will pierce the back of that surnamed Jiang!"

Jiang Chao was also taken aback, and hurriedly turned over with a "harrier" in the air, and stabbed Xu Zhi with a backhand sword, the two were only a few feet away, Xu Zhi hurriedly blocked with a sickle, and the sickle a few inches thick was cut into two pieces by the long sword.

Xu Zhi was very shocked, and thought: Could it be that this Jiang Chao's swordsmanship has reached the realm of the Wudang Master Ziyang Zhenren, who can control the sword qi, make the human sword one, and use the sword qi to break the blades in my hand one by one.

At this time, Jiang Chao shouted proudly: "Xu Zhi, I think your swordsmanship is not bad, but it is just a little bit worse, and the sword you make is too inferior, and when you encounter my Baihong sword, it is even less my opponent!"

Only then did Xu Zhi understand that Jiang Chao relied on the sharpness of the Baihong Sword to cut off the long swords in his hand one by one, not that Jiang Chao had much internal strength to achieve the realm of sword qi integration.

Xu Zhi no longer had any weapons in his hand, and when he saw Jiang Chao holding the Baihong Sword in his hand, he surrounded him again, knowing that he would be more auspicious today.

Xue Atan saw that Xu Zhi was being pressed by Jiang Chao step by step, he was very anxious, and said to Jiang Chao: "Gang Master Jiang, you can't use the sword in your hand to bully the defenseless Brother Xu, you have to be fair than the sword, or you both use ordinary long swords to win or lose, how about it?"

Jiang Chao sneered: "Joke! The main purpose of my visit today is not to compete with Xu Zhi, but to invite him to meet our helper." As you can see, we kindly invited him, but we couldn't move him, so we had to make this decision!"

After Jiang Chao finished speaking, he pointed the white rainbow sword at Xue Atan's throat, and was about to let everyone tie him up.

At this time, a small stone flew from the depths of the woods, crashed into Jiang Chao's wrist, and shook the white rainbow sword in his hand, Jiang Chao screamed, quickly picked up the white rainbow sword, turned around and turned his gaze to the depths of the woods.

At this time, another stone flew and shot down a hornet's nest hanging from a big tree, and suddenly a large group of mountain swarms swarmed up and pounced on everyone, Jiang Chao and the others only heard a buzzing sound around them, knowing that the situation was not good, and they had no time to take precautions. The mountain peaks had surrounded everyone, staring at everyone's bare faces, hands and feet, and everyone was stung several times, and the pain was unbearable, and they couldn't help but let out a scream.

Xu Zhi, He Mengjiao and Xue Atan hurriedly covered their faces with their clothes, but they still couldn't stop the attacks of the peaks in all directions.

Jiang Chao, the black and white shuangsha and the people in the Jiang Temple saw that the mountain bees were gathering more and more, and they didn't care about arresting Xu Zhi, so they fled in all directions. Xu Zhi and the three of them were still stunned and stayed in place, slapping the oncoming mountain bee hard, only to hear a low voice in the depths of the bushes say: "The three of you quickly slide down the grass down the valley, so that you can avoid the bite of the poisonous bee, and maybe you can escape!"

When Xu Zhi heard this, he quickly covered his head with his clothes, only his eyes were exposed, jumped into the grass, and slid down the mountain. Xue and He also drew scoops on the gourd, and they also slid down.

In order to escape for their lives, the three of them closed their eyes and slid down the valley one after another, every time they touched a piece of hard stone, it was like a sharp knife behind them that kept cutting their flesh and skin, and the three of them endured severe pain, feeling that the slippery was getting slower and slower, and gradually fell to the bottom of the valley.
