Sixty-four
The day before the game, Gu Hai and Su Zi inquired, and during class time, they sneaked out of Taihua Peak under the pretext of going to the toilet, and sneakily ran to Nonjian Peak to peek at their opponents, and snooped on the truth in the name of it.
There were actually two of their opponents, and as soon as they entered the Sword Peak, Gu Hai spotted one of them with a sharp eye. The two saw that there was a class in the distance, so they found a bush and quietly squatted behind.
In the crowd, the young man named Bailishuang had a very exotic appearance that was completely different from his name, with a milk-gold high ponytail and water-blue eyes, and the moon-shadow-white robe was not even abrupt.
He hugged a musical instrument that Gu Hai had never seen before and carefully adjusted it, and tried to pluck the strings with every few turns. Gu Hai couldn't hear the doorway, so he guessed based on his appearance and the information on the bulletin board: "You said that the thing called Ruan he was holding is not like a pipa, nor does it look like a Western musical instrument, could it be that it was passed from the ancient Western Regions?"
Su Zi knew that people in the world didn't understand this, so while carefully observing Baili Shuang's movements, he replied in a low voice: "That's a pure Han musical instrument, also called Han pipa, don't think it's from the Western Regions just because it's a blonde with a golden hair." ”
"Oh, I've heard of this name, I thought it would be a bigger instrument, it turned out to be so cute, I can see it today!" Although Gu Hai said this with a hippie smile, his eyes were full of novelty, he looked at the young man's slender fingers plucking the strings, and the instrument in his hand made a mellow and long sound, which was completely different from the sound of the piccolo.
Seeing that they had been out for a while, they were afraid that they would be out of class if they stayed any longer, and the two of them didn't care that they didn't see another opponent, so they hurried back to Taihua Peak. On the way, Gu Hai asked a little worriedly: "Suzi, you said that Ruan's voice sounds completely different from Dizi, what if we can't break the trick at that time?"
The young man who was asked by him trotted and took the time to turn back to him with a speechless expression: "Can't you play the violin if you can play the piano?"
Gu Hai felt that he couldn't refute it, so he had to shut up and rush back honestly. Finally, a few minutes before the end of class, the two of them returned to the medicine house in Xie Boyu's knowing and helpless gaze, out of breath but pretending to be calm.
I don't know if there was something wrong with the Four Seasons Array of Yujing Peak, or if Gu Hai and Su Zi were too excited, in short, the two of them walked on the Tai Chi Square that should be in early spring, but a little sweat couldn't help but ooze a little bit of sweat in their palms. The bulletin board in front of the Taiji Hall was still standing alone, and the two of them confirmed what their opponents were good at, and then walked in the direction of the Regulation Pavilion.
It was night in the pages of the book that I flipped to, Yan Bei stood outside the fence of the snow and bamboo forest, watching his former self sitting on the small swing that Bai Chuan had tied himself, blowing a jade flute engraved with Han Lan, trying to use the flute sound to sneak up on the young man who was practicing swords blindfolded in the forest.
Seeing Gu Hai and Su Zi coming, she didn't react, just put her index finger between her lips and made a quiet gesture. The two teenagers then tiptoed to Yan Bei's side and followed her gaze to look at Bai Zhuo.
The Bai clan was actually a ranger at first, so even if he has now become one of the four great families, the swordsmanship is still extraordinarily agile and elegant, and the white descendant in the bamboo forest is the same as when he first saw it in the book, and a piece of moonlight satin will be tied up all over the head of green silk, meticulous but inexplicably casual.
The bamboo leaves around him continued to fall under the urging of the wind and snow and the sound of the flute, and he cut them in half with ease, as if every time he took out the sword, he had already guessed where the bamboo leaves would float, and he didn't even pause for a second with the sword momentum.
Suddenly, Bai Zhan frowned slightly, and after cutting off a bamboo leaf, he quickly turned around and pressed his right hand against the center of the sword body. In the next second, I only heard a loud sound after the metal was hit, and sure enough, the place where it was hit was slightly bent in an instant, and even Bai Chuan was shocked to retreat a few steps.
The white-clothed young man stabilized his body and turned the unknown sword to the side, and by the time Gu Hai and Su Zi reacted, the green bamboo behind Bai had already been cut into two pieces. He stood there for a few seconds, holding his sword, until he heard the half of the bamboo body fall with a bang, and then he smiled in a very amused way.
He didn't say anything, just turned around and made a gesture at Yan Bei on the swing, then took his left leg back half a step, raised his sword and took a stance, waiting for Yan Bei's next attack.
The first few attacks were not much different from the ones that Gu Hai and Su Zi had to practice on weekdays, but those sound blades were sharper and faster than when they were taught, and Bai Zhenyuan just blindly dodged or forcibly cut them open, but this method could not be used to win in the end, and after a few times, he began to grope for a way to break through.
As soon as he changed the sound blade and did not know how to fight each other horizontally and vertically, he turned to the same straight sword, just let the two blades pass by, and then with a slight movement on his wrist, the sound blade became soft in a short moment, and then quickly threw it towards the green bamboo beside him.
"Dong" is different from the previous bamboo that was split into two sections, the sound blade that was thrown out seemed to be smashed heavily on the bamboo, but the bamboo only made a muffled sound, Gu Hai looked at Yan Bei beside him in disbelief, and asked: "Has he realized how to break the curve?"
Although Yan Bei did not answer, he nodded affirmatively. So Su Zi asked again: "But he doesn't know "Shocking God", even if he guesses that he should disrupt the tune, he may not be able to win, right?"
"Shhh Yan Bei said and pointed ahead, and the two teenagers turned their heads back honestly with the question in their hearts.
Although Bai Zhan initially only slowed down the speed of the sound blades indiscriminately so that they were no longer lethal, he swung them around him at will, which seemed unintentional, but Su Zi always felt that it seemed to have ulterior motives.
Sure enough, after a few times, those sound blades were each knocked out of a simple melody on the bamboo joint, and at this time, even Yan Bei, who was sitting on the swing, couldn't help but show a trace of surprise. She continued to play the piccolo in her hand, and the sound of the flute became more delicate, and the tune became sharper, but Bai Descend was as comfortable as when he had slashed the bamboo leaves before.
Just when Gu Hai and Su Zi thought that Bai Zhan wanted to try to play "Shocking God" or other tunes, a faint smile appeared on his face again.
In the midst of the heavy snow, Bai Chuan gradually returned to the middle of the bamboo forest, and a sound blade was steadily leading on his unknown sword. The two blades continued to rub together and make a low sound, and he didn't seem to have the intention of throwing the sound blade out too quickly, just blindly dodging the other sharp blades attacking him.
Finally, when the sound was completely gone, the young man in the forest swung his sword violently, only to see a stream of air carrying snowflakes along the way directly to the green bamboo on his left. After another clear bang, the bamboo cracked through it.
The two teenagers were about to exclaim, but the next scene made them almost speechless.
The sound blade that had been cultivated was ejected from the bamboo joint, and it actually smashed away the rest of the sound blades that were attacking Bai Descending one by one as if it had been calculated, and even devoured a few not very sharp ones on the way. Bai Zhan took advantage of this gap and stabbed with his sword following the source of the sound, and sure enough, he heard the sound of the girl jumping lightly from the swing.
Although the sound of the flute did not stop, the attack of the sound blade gradually eased with the sound of faster and faster footsteps, and finally, the tip of the unknown sword touched the body of the jade flute, and Yan Bei smiled in the story and reached out to take off the moonlight satin in front of Bai Zhuan, and then said calmly: "This time you win again." ”
