Chapter 0223: A Sword Grace

Qingxi County in Muzhou has been captured by Mingjiao, and the nearest official road from Sui'an County to Hangzhou has been cut off, and Mingjiao has just raised troops, and the momentum is like a bamboo, and the limelight is in full swing, and it is bound to take advantage of the victory to enter the army in Muzhou's governance and build morality, and wantonly block all intersections.

Zhao Bufan didn't want to make any extraneous branches, so he turned to the southeast, planning to make a detour to Jinhua and Yiwu in Wuzhou, avoiding the soldiers and horses of the Ming Sect and turning to Hangzhou from the south.

In order to be in a hurry, everyone barely said anything on the road, except for hurrying, they seized the time to rest, until they arrived in Huiji County, Yuezhou, and then gradually relaxed and slowed down the speed of travel.

At noon that day, not long after Zhao Bufan led everyone through Xiaoshan County, he saw a tea shop on the side of the road, and immediately stopped the war horse.

"This should not be far from Hangzhou, take a break and then go!"

"Uh-huh!" Zhi Yuezhi nodded again and again, wiping the beads of sweat on her forehead and complaining: "I'm hungry and thirsty now, I really can't stand it!"

Zhao Bufan, who had just jumped off the horse, heard this, and couldn't help but walk to her side to help her dismount.

"It's all my fault, I would have let you be in the capital if I knew it!"

"No! I can't be idle!"

Zhi Yuezhi rolled her eyes, ignored him, and found a table next to her and sat down.

"Shop, good wine and good food are all up, and a few more pots of good wine!"

The shopkeeper listened to her accent is not southern, and the tone of the conversation is obviously not the appearance of walking around all the year round, but like a rich child, his eyes can't help narrowing, and he walked closer with a smile: "The little lady is a heroic person at first glance, although the villain's tea shop is small, but the food tastes really good, but if you want to eat some local characteristics, the price will be more expensive!"

Zhi Yuezhi was so hungry that her chest was pressed against her back, so she waved her hand again and again: "Even if it's up, I'm afraid I won't be able to pay?"

"Well, little lady, wait a moment!" replied the shopkeeper, turning happily and leaving.

At this time, Zhao Bufan had already tied up his horses, happened to walk to the table, looked at Zhi Yuezhi with a smile, and shouted angrily: "Hey! You are really good at doing business in this shop, you have never been out of the house? What are the local characteristics? You can bring me six braised pig's trotters, six catties of cooked beef, and sift a few corners of good wine, we will give a reward if we eat well, don't slander me!"

Seeing that his mind was exposed, the shopkeeper's face was extremely embarrassed, and he hurriedly smiled and said, "Yes, yes, yes!

Although Zhi Yuezhi was very arrogant, she also saw some fame now, and looked at Zhao Bufan strangely.

"How do you know he doesn't have a specialty?"

Gongsun Sheng, who had just sat down next to him, suddenly smiled, and said with his beard in his beard: "Mrs. Zhao, he will definitely make a few special dishes, but you see that this tea shop is just him, and there are so many passing guests next to him, can he really make it for you?

Zhi Yuezhi didn't listen to anything else, but Mrs. heard it in her heart, and immediately covered her mouth and smiled: "What Mrs. Zhao? Why are you screaming nonsense?"

"Ah! I'm sorry, Poor Dao made a slip of the tongue for a while, a slip of the tongue! Two days ago, I heard that Bai Qianli always called him like this, and Poor Dao was also led crooked by him, rude! "Gongsun Sheng was sleek and tight, and he clearly saw through it in his heart, and he intended to ridicule, but he just wanted to pretend to be confused.

Zheyuezhi was also called beautiful in her heart, and she couldn't stop laughing, but she pretended to be annoyed and reprimanded: "Don't scream nonsense in the future, I'm his godsister!"

"Yes, ma'am!" said Gongsun Sheng nodded solemnly.

Yang Yizhong and Shang Kunyang next to him suddenly laughed.

Yang Yizhong turned his head to look at Zhao Bufan, who was silent, and then looked at Zhi Yuezhi, who looked annoyed, but was actually smiling happily, rolled his eyes and said, "Sister, are you angry or happy?"

This is a little too straight, Zhi Yuezhi glanced at Zhao Bufan and didn't say anything, she was suddenly a little annoyed, her beautiful eyes widened, and she scolded loudly: "You guys shout nonsense, and I'm not allowed to laugh?"

Yang Yizhong was scolded by her and quickly lowered his head, not daring to make a sound, but Shang Kunyang next to him couldn't help but pull his arm and scolded narrowly: "You offending thing, don't joke if you are not as good as Mr. Gongsun!"

"You two are begging to fight, aren't you?" Zhi Yuezhi couldn't hear the teasing meaning in Shang Kunyang's words, her pretty face turned red in an instant, and she looked at Zhao Bufan and said, "You don't care about them!"

"Me?" Zhao Bufan smiled bitterly, he wanted to pretend that he didn't hear it, but he thought that he would be questioned directly, and then glared at Gongsun Sheng and the others who were secretly snickering, and said helplessly: "The mouth is on them, what can I do, you just didn't hear it!"

In fact, he has always avoided this question, deep down in his heart, Orizuki occupies an extremely important position, and he also knows that Orizuki's feelings for him have been very different in recent years, no longer as pure as at the beginning, and slowly becoming complicated.

But there is no way to solve it at the moment.

The Fold family is not trivial, it is a military family with strict family laws, if you have not communicated with the Fold family first, and now make a clear statement, things will be more difficult than imagined. Zheyuezhi can be said to be ignorant and capricious, but he is an important minister of the court, representing a force, if it is really a marriage, it must even be agreed by the emperor, even with the Zhu family, it must be negotiated, and Zhu Lian is already a wife, how to put Zheyuezhi's position?

These are all problems that plague Zhao Bufan, but if he takes the initiative to cut off this relationship with Zheyuezhi, he really can't do it, knowing that he is the prince, knowing that he has to have a group of wives and concubines, but he forcibly gives up the people in his heart, and instead finds some people he doesn't know by his side, it's really difficult, he is not a saint, he also has selfish intentions, he can be less childlike for the grand wish in his heart, but it does not mean that he is willing, it does not mean that he has no ideas in his heart.

At the moment, he can't pierce the window paper, and he can't solve this matter for the time being, so Zhao Bufan can only choose to avoid it first.

Zhi Yuezhi's words just now were clearly to let him take care of Gongsun Sheng and Shang Kunyang and others, but in fact, it was also a kind of questioning of him, he wanted to hear him say a reason and find out his attitude, but in the end, he just got an evasive answer.

This made Orizuki's beautiful eyes a little gloomy, and an indescribable soreness rose from her heart, and she had the urge to cry, but she still held back, pretended to be angry, and sat down suddenly, but in fact she was very bad at disguise, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that she was in a bad mood.

The crowd fell silent.

Yang Yizhong and Shang Kunyang both lowered their heads and remained silent, and Gongsun Sheng also pretended to look around.

Just when the atmosphere was a little awkward, a long sigh suddenly came from not far away.

"Hey, the things in the world, only this love word is the most annoying, it always makes people's hearts broken, how can Your Excellency bear to hurt the heart of a beauty like this!"

"Huh?"

Zhao Bufan looked up, but saw a gray-clothed swordsman on another table in the distance, with fluffy hair and a heroic bearing.

When he looked over, the people sitting at the table around the gray-clothed swordsman also obviously strengthened their vigilance, and their eyes looked over with a blank look, obviously they were all the same as the gray-clothed swordsman.

Gongsun Sheng knew that it was wrong for Zhao Bufan to answer the phone at the moment, and it would definitely hurt the relationship with Zheyuezhi, so he immediately took over with a smile: "Brother Tai, don't you know that there is a saying that if the two love for a long time, how can it be in the morning and twilight?

As soon as these words came out, Zhi Yuezhi's eyes lit up, as if she had found some excuse for herself, and her face was obviously much better-looking.

Zhao Bufan also breathed a sigh of relief.

The gray-clothed swordsman was bold, laughed out loud, and suddenly picked up the wine bowl and signaled remotely: "If you can't help yourself, then it's another matter, I just hope that Brother Tai knows that flowers can be folded straight and must be broken, don't wait for flowers to break branches without space, red faces are easy to age, fragrant flowers are easy to pass away, and don't lose the beauty of Shaohua!"

Zhao Bufan listened to the gray-clothed swordsman's conversation with a bit of civility, and he was very surprised in his heart, and couldn't help but smile and said: "Brother Tai talks well, I don't know what to call it?"

The gray-clothed swordsman smiled faintly and drank the bowl of wine in his hand.

"Fang Jie, this bowl of wine and I will respect you first, I know that you have done a lot of chivalrous things, I respect you for three points, but today I have to divide life and death, I'm sorry!"

"Fang Jie?" Zhao Bufan was stunned.

The people next to Zhiyuezhi and Yang Yi were even more inexplicable.

When the gray-clothed swordsman saw everyone's appearance, his face was slightly unhappy: "It's a little childish to hide your head and tail now!"

This made Zhao Bufan a little confused, and shook his head in surprise: "I'm really not Fang Jie!"

The gray-clothed swordsman sneered and turned his head to look at Gongsun Sheng.

"Then you're not Bao Daoyi either?"

"Naturally not!" Gongsun Sheng shook his head.

"That's a coincidence!" the gray-clad swordsman pursed his lips disdainfully, his eyes scornful. "This Fang Jie and Bao Daoyi are going to come to Hangzhou secretly in the near future to organize believers to prepare for the Ming Sect's attack on Hangzhou, you happen to appear here, one is the same age as Fang Jie, the other is the same age as Bao Daoyi, not to mention, they are also Taoist priests, all of them are equipped with martial arts, this is really a strange thing!"

"Who are you?" Zhao Bufan frowned.

"I thought you Fang Jie was a character, but now it seems that this is just the case, yes or no, you will know if you take my sword!" The gray-clothed swordsman's voice gradually turned stronger, and he slapped the table heavily, and the long sword placed on the table flew up along with the scabbard.

The gray-clothed swordsman quickly grasped the hilt of the sword and leaped forward, and when the long sword was unsheathed, it had already drawn a streamer, and the thick evil aura seemed to be substance.

"Get out of the way!"

Zhao Bufan felt the extremely terrifying martial arts of the gray-clothed swordsman, and suddenly shouted, leaping out like a sharp arrow, and a flying dragon in the sky did not avoid it, and slapped it towards the spine of the sword.

It's a sword that can't be found!

The blade of the sword trembled, letting out a strange roar!

To the naked eye, it looks like a simple prick!

But in fact, it is unpredictable, and Zhao Bufan even thinks that it may stab any part of his body!

He didn't dare to be careless, and frantically urged the eighteen palms of the dragon to descend, and the fierce and unmatched palm power roared and rushed, breaking the trick with his strength!

"Bang!"

The two strong true qi clashed fiercely, and both of them involuntarily spun around and flew out, landed at the same time, and jumped up again at the same time!

The gray-clad swordsman stabbed his second sword!

This sword is full of phantoms, and I can't see the way clearly!

It seems that every sword is real, but it is as if every sword is fake, true and false, false and true, it is difficult to distinguish!

Zhao Bufan, who jumped into the air, had a calm face, and his right palm pushed out a palm very quickly, the palm power was strong and majestic, exuding the power of the scorching sun, but in the eyes of people, this palm came out very slowly, as if it was slowly launched in slow motion.

Yang Yizhong's monk Kunyang even let out an exclamation because they felt that the gray-clothed swordsman's sword would pierce Zhao Bufan's body.

Only Zhi Yuezhi and Gongsun Sheng had solemn faces, Zhe Yuezhi is martial arts cultivation is high enough, and he can feel the dangerous game between the two, Gongsun Sheng is because of his extraordinary vision, he can't feel it, but he can see that the two are not much different.

At this time, something strange happened, Zhao Bufan's seemingly slow palm suddenly appeared on the sword path in a millimeter.

The shadow of the sword is gone!

The spine of the sword lightly touched the palm of the hand, making a crisp metallic sound, and the palm power of the eighteen palms of the dragon descending instantly exploded, even overturning the roof of the tea shop, and the table under the two of them instantly split into two parts.

In a moment, Zhao Bufan stood on the pillar in the left corner of the tea shop, standing quietly.

The gray-clothed swordsman stood on the pillar in the right corner of the tea shop, his head lowered, his fluffy hair was scattered, and his long sword was pointed obliquely, which really had a kind of dusty atmosphere.

"Fang Jie, you are stronger than I imagined, take me with a sword, if you can catch it, then I will die convincingly!"

It was the first time for Zhao Bufan to fight against a master of this level, and his heart was also full of fighting spirit, so he didn't explain anything, and said lightly: "Come on!"

"Look!"

A thick sword intent rose from the gray-clothed swordsman's body, and at this moment, he was like a sword, and the cold was pressing.

Suddenly, he moved, flying into the air!

It's light, it's slow!

This is looking for a long sword, there is no sword qi, no evil qi, nothing, as if an ordinary person stabbed an ordinary sword!

But this sword is very beautiful, like a shock, full of a dusty aura!

Facing this sword, the sweat on Zhao Bufan's forehead came down instantly.

The person next to him didn't look at anything, but under the shroud of sword intent, his body was tense like never before, his eyes were cold, and he stared at the sword without blinking.

This sword is not just a sword, but a sword intent that someone has realized!

It makes people feel that no matter how they dodge, they will be stabbed to death, as if they can't stop it no matter how they shoot, the higher the martial arts cultivation, the more they feel the horror of this sword!

It feels unbreakable!

Oh no, I can't break this sword, I'm dead!!

This is the only thought that flashed in Zhao Bufan's heart, he really had never seen this kind of martial arts path, there was no extra fighting, back and forth was one move at a time, if it was broken, it would be alive, and if it could not be broken, it would be death.

This is simply a swordsmanship made for fighting.

If it is on the battlefield, this kind of swordsmanship is not very useful, the two-wheeled iron cavalry charge will definitely be finished, what sword intent is not sword intent, the iron cavalry rushes up, there is no way back at all, countless battle armor and iron spears are directly crushed, and they are trampled to death if they are not killed!

But in the midst of a duel, it's terrifying!

Zhao Bufan was not completely sure to take this sword, but the people next to him, even Zhi Yuezhi, all thought that he could take this sword, because this sword looked much weaker than before.
