Chapter Seventy-Six: Sudden Change

Fang Xiaodao found that he was really not a person who could calm down. should have faced Xiao Ying without changing his face, but Xiao Ying saw the abnormality first, and asked with concern: "Brother Fang, what's wrong with you, your face is a little ugly?"

Fang Xiaodao smiled as gently as he could: "It's nothing, I just slept less last night." ”

He Yuelan walked in after Sun Yan, her eyes were red and she seemed to have cried. Fang Xiaodao suddenly felt that he couldn't tell Xiao Ying the truth, otherwise the lively and cheerful Xiao Ying would change.

Sun Yan walked to Fang Xiaodao's side and said, "I've decided, I can do it today and try not to make compromises." ”

Fang Xiaodao was stunned for a moment, suddenly had a new idea in his mind, nodded and said, "You just have to be casual, there is not only me behind, but also the old monk." ”

Sun Yan nodded gratefully and sat down beside Fang Xiaodao.

After a while, Wu Boliang walked in and sat on the main seat without saying a word. After scanning everyone for a week, he said slowly: "Why don't you move chopsticks, is it because the food is not good?"

Sun Yan said: "Yesterday, you said something first, didn't you forget it in a blink of an eye!"

Wu Boliang said: "I don't dare, but I can't make decisions for the palace maid, so I can only inquire on my behalf." I can reply today, and as for the meaning of the palace maidens, it is all in this letter. With that, he pulled out a letter from his wide sleeve.

When the letter arrived in He Yuelan's hand, she eagerly opened it, looked at it for a while, her hands trembled, and she seemed to be quite excited.

Sun Yan stood up and said, "Hmph, I've long seen that you are uneasy and kind." I can't settle with you today, so let's not be polite. ”

Wu Boliang said: "Your guest has misunderstood, why don't you read the letter and blame it before it's too late." ”

Sun Yan said: "Who can know if the letter is true, you don't think that some despicable tricks can deceive me and others." ”

Fang Xiaodao stood up, walked behind He Yuelan, stared at the letter for a while, and said, "Brother Sun, slow down." ”

Sun Yan stared at Fang Xiaodao curiously, really didn't understand why he stopped drinking himself now since he supported him.

Fang Xiaodao said: "You can also take a look at the letter!"

Sun Yan walked over until he finished reading all the letters, and sighed helplessly: "Can anyone tell me what the hell is going on?"

He Yuelan said to Wu Boliang: "Master respects her old man, has her body been good lately?"

Wu Boliang smiled: "Everything is fine, but I can't meet you, and I'm deeply sorry." ”

Xiao Ying was very curious about why Fang Xiaodao and Sun Yan had changed their attitudes after seeing the letter, so she walked over and picked up the letter that had just been put down by He Yuelan from the table. After reading the entire letter, Xiao Ying also fell into an inexplicable emotion. Gong Nanyan mentioned in the letter that she and Wu Boliang were old friends, which made He Yuelan suspicious. Moreover, he also said that he was not sure of defeating Xin Zhou, and he was very uneasy in his heart, and he couldn't bear to let the prestige of the Flower Palace be ruined by his own hands, so he decided to avoid it. Xiao Ying immediately understood why Sun Yan and Fang Xiaodao immediately changed their attitudes after reading it, because both of them were people who were not afraid of failure. In the eyes of such people, a person who practices martial arts should not be afraid of failure. Therefore, when they saw Gong Nanyan's panic in the letter, they immediately had a kind of disappointment. There is nothing more terrible than disappointment, and disappointment means that they will feel that what they have done for Gong Nanyan is not worth it. Real martial artists have the same kind of recklessness, that is, subconsciously understand the whole of a person from a person's martial spirit.

Fang Xiaodao looked at Xiao Ying, and then turned back to Wu Boliang and said, "Zunjia mentioned yesterday that Pei Gongzi was also a guest here, I wonder if he would like to see me?"

Wu Boliang said: "When I mentioned Shaoxia to Pei Gongzi, he missed it very much. And at this moment, he is waiting to meet the young man. ”

Fang Xiaodao said, "Oh, where?"

Wu Boliang said: "Since the young man is anxious, let Ke Bing take you there!"

Fang Xiaodao nodded.

Yao Kebing slowly walked up the stone steps with Fang Xiaodao, silent all the way. Until the door of a room on the ninth floor, Yao Kebing said: "Pei Gongzi is inside, please!"

Fang Xiaodao nodded, knocked twice on the hilt of the sword on the door and said, "Brother Pei, the knife below is here to visit you." After speaking, he was stunned for a moment before pushing the door.

As soon as he pushed open the door, suddenly several swords slashed at Fang Xiaodao at the same time, and there were no less than ten killers hidden in the narrow doorway. However, even more surprising is the square knife. He seemed to be on guard, but he didn't see him parry, and the sword flew out of its sheath like a streamer, arcing and then stopping. Suddenly, there were several more arms on the ground, and weapons that still hadn't left the palms of their hands. Under this sudden change of thunder, I am afraid that there are very few people who can protect themselves, let alone kill the enemy.

Yao Kebing's eyes widened, she had never seen such a swordsmanship, and she couldn't figure out such a person. What I couldn't understand was why Fang Xiaodao could move so quickly when he entered the door. In fact, Fang Xiaodao felt strange from the beginning. Along the way, Yao Kebing not only walked extremely slowly, but also always trembled unconsciously, looking very nervous. So, he just knocked on the door to be tempted. If Pei Xudong was really in it and normal, he would definitely make a sound. In other words, even if Pei Xudong is really inside, he will only make a sound when he can't make a sound. As long as Pei Xudong's voice didn't come from inside, he could already be sure that this was a conspiracy.

Fang Xiaodao kicked away one of the killers with a broken arm who was blocking him, walked in amid the wails of everyone, pointed his sword at the remaining killers and said, "Where is Zhang Gong?"

Zhang Gong did not show up today, and Fang Xiaodao thought that he was directing the murder.

After not getting an answer, Fang Xiaodao turned back to Yao Kebing and said, "Is this the Pei Xudong you asked me to see?"

Yao Kebing looked at Fang Xiaodao with wide eyes, as if he was afraid that he would end up like those killers, or even worse than them; after all, it was Yao Kebing who brought Fang Xiaodao here, and Fang Xiaodao would think that she was more important than the killer and more hateful than the killer.

Fang Xiaodao ignored the killers who had lost their fighting spirit but had not yet lost their combat power, and asked, "I can't embarrass you, but you have to tell me, what are your intentions?"

Yao Kebing suddenly sniffled, ignoring the tears on his face, and said movingly: "You go quickly, it's too late if you don't leave." ”

Fang Xiaodao was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt as if she hadn't lied to herself. Thinking about it carefully, Wu Boliang couldn't just do it to him alone, it was very likely to hurt himself, since he was able to trick him here, he would naturally treat Fa Yuan in the same way, and even Xiao Ying. Thinking of this, his mind was almost chaotic, so he ran out of the door almost frantically and jumped over.

Yao Kebing was taken aback, she still knew very well how tall it was here, and it was impossible for a person to have a chance of surviving if she jumped down. So she subconsciously pounced on the railing, but saw Fang Xiaodao hook the railing of the eighth layer with her hand, and then let go, and went to the seventh layer again. Seeing this scene, she suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and when she turned around, her face became cold again.

Fang Xiaodao reached the fourth floor in one breath, and before he could gain a stable foothold, a sharp arrow immediately flew out grazing his ears. Fang Xiaodao fixed his eyes and saw that Zhang Gong was holding a huge bow and crossbow, aiming at Fang Xiaodao.

Fang Xiaodao's long sword slashed a sharp mang, splitting the opponent's bow and crossbow from it. Then the long sword danced like a pear blossom and killed Zhang Gong.

Zhang Gong's martial arts are still excellent, and Fang Xiaodao is difficult to win for a while. The two of them fought less than five moves, and Wu Boliang and a middle-aged man in gray walked out of the room.

Wu Boliang said to the disciples: "Fight quickly and resolve quickly. ”

Soon, a group of disciples rushed up and killed Fang Xiaodao. Fang Xiaodao and long sword bloomed with countless devouring lights, and it was bloody for a while. As soon as he entered the rivers and lakes, he stirred up the wind and clouds, and the swordsmanship he cultivated with all his heart and soul also wanted to shine in the rivers and lakes.

The gray-robed middle-aged man stared at Fang Xiaodao for a long time, and suddenly grabbed a long sword, and a sword came towards Fang Xiaodao. This sword seems to be unremarkable, but its power is like a spring thunderbolt, breaking out in an instant, and it is also a life-and-death decision in an instant. Just as the sword was close to Fang Xiaodao, Fang Xiaodao suddenly felt that his whole body seemed to be pierced by the long sword.

Fang Xiaodao stared at this gray-robed man incredulously, the long sword was suddenly withdrawn, and he intercepted this sword in front of his chest: "Who are you?"

The gray-robed man stared at Fang Xiaodao's eyes and said, "Since you can see it, you should know that you are powerless to resist." ”

Fang Xiaodao pushed the long sword vigorously and said, "It's a pity, no one can let me be caught." After saying that, another sword stabbed a Yanbo Pavilion disciple to death.

Wu Boliang sneered: "You take a look here first, and then you can still be so tough." ”

Fang Xiaodao glanced at it, and saw Wu Boliang pinching Xiao Ying's neck with his hand, looking extremely gloomy.

Fang Xiaodao sneered: "If you dare to touch a single hair of her, I'm sure you will soon perish like the Broken Soul Valley here." Whoever can go to the Valley of Broken Souls can come and destroy you. ”

Wu Boliang was stunned and said, "You are too alarmist!"

Fang Xiaodao said: "Don't you think she looks like a person?"

Wu Boliang said: "Who?"

Fang Xiaodao said word by word: "Gongsun family, Gongsun Shu." ”

Wu Boliang frowned and said, "If no one can leave here, I don't think anyone will know!"

Fang Xiaodao said: "You have to guarantee that no one will know that she is here, but you don't seem to have any way, and those who should know will definitely know." ”

No one in the rivers and lakes will question the calling ability of the Gongsun family. Moreover, it is precisely because the Gongsun family is not prosperous enough that the martial arts people will be more willing to help them. Some people do it because they are chivalrous, and some people do it to get a reputation for chivalry.

Fang Xiaodao sneered and said, "I am a prodigal son without a sect, and if I die here, there are only so many friends who may take revenge." But you, Wu Boliang, today are not only provoking the Gongsun family, but also the Heqing faction, Futu Temple, and Wuhua Palace. Do you think it's going to be hard to kill you when the time comes?"

Wu Boliang must have been prepared to do this, but when he was mentioned at this time, he was still a little empty.

The gray-robed man sneered and said, "Fang Xiaodao, you are a rare smart person, and your martial arts are also outstanding. I don't like to be your enemy, but if you want to be our enemy, I'm afraid you will only offend. ”

Fang Xiaodao knew that what they were trying to do must be a big thing, and the people who did big things must be very bold, so it was not of much practical use to scare them. Just like now, although Wu Boliang hesitated, he had no intention of letting go.

Fang Xiaodao shook his sword, knowing that there was only a death battle today, and he also gave up his last extravagant hope.

Because there are dangers and obstacles, the sword is like a forest, and the road is born, or the road is killed. The sword technique of seizing the road wants to take away your own way of life, and you also want to take the life of others. Your own way of life is in your own hands, and the way of life of others is in your own hands, and it is also life. If you can't take the road, that's death.

Fang Xiaodao had already killed more than a dozen people, and suddenly the gray-robed man bullied him again. At that time, Fang Xiaodao used the seventy-third move in the sword technique of seizing the road, and this move was called "Hanhai Lonely Boat". The gray-robed man's sword seemed to be unhindered, stabbing into Fang Xiaodao's chest, and the force was condensed but not released.

Fang Xiaodao was stunned and said, "Impossible, there is no second person in the world who can take the road sword technique?"

The gray-robed man said: "You're right, but it's not that no one knows where the only flaw in the Path Snatching Sword Technique is?" After speaking, taking advantage of Fang Xiaodao's distraction, suddenly the spine of the sword swung and knocked his long sword to the ground.

Fang Xiaodao suddenly reacted, but he couldn't grab the long sword, so he had to push it out towards the other party with a flat tide palm. This person did not dodge or dodge, and met it with a palm, and a surging force knocked Fang Xiaodao back again and again, and at the same time, the entire arm seemed to be cut by countless swords, and there was a burst of unbearable pain.

Seeing that Fang Xiaodao was about to fall, the gray-robed man suddenly pounced. Fang Xiaodao hit the railing, but because he was relatively tall, his center of gravity was unstable, and he immediately fell. The gray-robed man hooked his foot on the railing and reached out to grab the knife. When Fang Xiaodao was surprised, he seemed to make a mistake under his feet, and he also fell down. Falling directly from the third floor to the second floor, suddenly the man grabbed the railing of the second floor. At this time, the power of the two people falling was on him alone, but as a result, his hand loosened slightly, and only the sleeve of Fang Xiaodao was torn off, and Fang Xiaodao still fell.

Fang Xiaodao had already taken precautions, and his feet were lightly on the ground. Suddenly jumped up, jumped three feet away, and then spread his legs and ran outside.

The gray-robed man took the sleeve of Fang Xiaodao with great regret and said to Wu Boliang who caught up: "I wanted to catch him alive, and set out the Shenwu Sutra and the Sword Technique of Grabbing the Road, who would have thought that he would actually miss, this kid's ability to fall from thousands of pounds is not bad." ”

Wu Boliang had a trace of doubt in his heart, looked at the broken sleeves in the gray-robed man's hand and said, "Don't worry, although he is strong in martial arts, I am not afraid to ask myself." ”

It was night, and Xiao Ying stared at the firelight of Douda, still worried about Fang Xiaodao. After all, they can all be caught, what use can Fang Xiaodao do alone! If Fang Xiaodao is bent on escaping, it would be fine, but where does Fang Xiaodao seem to have thrown them away!

Just across a fence, Sun Yan and Fa Yuan were meditating. And He Yuelan, who was beside her, didn't seem to be willing to waste time.

There is no reason for the four of them to be captured in such a short period of time. The real situation is that they have already lost as soon as they make a move, because they find that they are poisoned, and their internal strength is not used. However, the Fang knife was not poisoned, which is intriguing.

The law next door suddenly let out a sigh and said, "Female donor, don't be too obsessed with thinking about Fang Shaoxia, you better protect yourself first!"

The internal force of the law is deep, and he is naturally the first person to recover.

Xiao Ying said: "He is a person who dares to fight thousands of people in the Valley of Broken Souls, I am only afraid that he will not go to find a helper, but send it to the door himself." ”

Fa Yuan said: "What's more, he was young three years ago, his skills were shallow, and he only used one hand of swordsmanship to break through Dao Ma Chuan alone. A brave man like him is really rare. ”

Sun Yan said: "I don't think so, Xiaodao is a smart person." As long as he goes to help, not only will he not hurt a single hair, but we will also be saved. Although he has offended many people, there are also many who are willing to help. There is Yin Sheng, the eldest brother of righteousness, and Su Ruoyao, a confidante on Xiaojian Mountain, and the entire Heshou Gang can help him. ”

Xiao Ying said: "Miss Su, what kind of person is it?"

Sun Yan found that he was a little speechless, but he didn't think that Xiao Ying could still care about this at this time.

Sun Yan said: "Miss Su, she is a good girl. ”

Xiao Ying said: "Brother Yan, I want to hear the truth." ”

Sun Yan sighed helplessly and said, "Miss Su, she has a name called Fairy Su." And she does deserve this title, she is not only fresh and refined, like a fairy in the world, but also kind and indifferent. The hands of the gang up and down all praised her for her personality. Those who have seen her may never forget it for the rest of their lives. ”

Xiao Ying said leisurely: "Maybe she is the only one who is worthy of the big brother above!"

Sun Yan didn't know how to comfort him, and said with a wry smile: "Fang Xiaodao and Miss Su actually don't have much fate. The two of them may not have been together for as long as you, and Fang Xiaodao's hatred was flourishing at that time, I'm afraid that I have no intention of having a long relationship with my children!"

Xiao Ying didn't speak, and suddenly fell into silence.

After a while, there was a sound of footsteps, and a woman with a lantern came with a basket, squatted down through the iron bar, took out some food from it, and placed it outside the bars of the two cells.

The woman said, "Several, the food is a little worse, please just a little." ”

Sun Yan looked up at the woman and said, "Miss Yao, this steamed bun and water are not poisonous, right?"

Yao Kebing said: "Since a few people survived, no one will be poisoned." ”

Xiao Ying sneered: "Thank you, you are really worthy of my eldest brother." ”

Yao Kebing lowered his head and said, "It's just the edge of Pingshui, how can he be interested in a woman like me!"

Dharma Yuan said: "Amitabha, good! The female benefactor can help me, and we are all grateful." ”

Sun Yan said: "Old monk, I always thought that the knife called you so disrespectful to the seniors, but now I have changed my hexagram." ”

Xiao Ying suddenly had a hint of enlightenment and said, "I understand why Brother Fang is not poisoned." But how did we get poisoned?"

Yao Kebing said: "The incense you smelled in the morning was mixed with a colorless and odorless poison, which can make people's internal strength useless at all. ”

Sun Yan said: "Then, the reason why the knife was not poisoned must be that this Yao girl gave him the antidote in advance!"

Yao Kebing said: "I smeared the antidote into his wine glass, and he is indeed as I expected, he will drink every wine." ”

Xiao Ying said: "I hope you understand that you have been seen through at the moment." ”

Yao Kebing smiled bitterly: "He tricked Gongzi Fang to leave, and asked me to lead the way, and I already knew that I was seen through by him." ”

Xiao Ying said: "He didn't kill you, nor did he embarrass you, that's good." ”

Yao Kebing didn't speak, picked up the basket and said, "In this world, no one has ever treated me as well as Fang Gongzi. Even if I knew he was just sympathetic, that was enough. ”

Xiaoying admires Yao Kebing very much, Yao Kebing is very brave. This kind of bravery in disregarding her own life for Fang Xiaodao made her not only admire, but also sympathize. Because of her, it is very likely that she really lost her life because of this incident.

After Yao Kebing left, Sun Yan picked up the steamed buns, broke them one by one, and then kneaded them, but he didn't eat them.

Xiaoying just went to get it back, and Sun Yan said, "Don't eat, don't eat." ”

Xiao Ying said, "Oh, why?"

Sun Yan said: "Worthy of sympathy and worthy of belief are two different things, this woman can't be believed." ”

Xiao Ying still didn't understand, and He Yuelan behind her seemed to ease up at this time, patted her shoulder and said, "The heart of guarding against people is indispensable." After speaking, he plucked a silver hairpin from his head and put it in the water, and when he took it out, he could see that the silver hairpin turned black when facing the light.

Why did Yao Kebing kill them, as if he didn't have any reason. Could it be that what she said was all fake, just to deceive them?
