Chapter 752: The Study
Lu Mian and Deng Yuanlei stood at the door, each holding a delicate long sword, one with a gloomy face and the other triumphant.
Han Fen didn't notice the danger, and said happily: "Sure enough, I touched you, hey, why is your waist fat?"
Deng Yuanlei's face was slightly red, he took a lot of treasures along the way, and said sharply: "Han Fen, you are a disciple of Xiaoyue Hall, step aside, the Qingcheng faction will have a life and death battle with the Dragon King." ”
Han Fen only reacted at this time, "It's really strange, why have you all recovered your strength? Can't Indra incense and paralyzing pills be used together?" I have to talk to the Imperial Master." ”
Old Man Mu sighed, "I haven't recovered, Old Deng, Xiao Lu, you ...... Could it be that the old Khan still has a few antidotes hidden in the tomb?"
Deng Yuanlei was a few years younger than Lu Mian, and he was stunned when he heard the title of Old Man Mu, and then said with a cruel smile: "What's more, the old Khan King left a room for Xiaoyue Hall, which contains the statue of the Imperial Master, haha......"
Before the laughter stopped, Han Fen pounced without warning, Deng Lu and the others subconsciously avoided it, and at the same time waved their swords at her, but Han Fen had already run into the corridor and shouted, "Where is the room in Xiaoyue Hall......
Deng Yuanlei muttered a word of "madman", and continued: "This is called the sky has eyes, let's go to the side, you read fake books here, but Lu Zhangmen can get the real antidote, Dragon King, come out and die, the Qingcheng faction will kill the demon today!"
Old Man Mu tried his best to delay time for the Dragon King, and said with a smile: "If the Dragon King is dead, you won't be able to get the head of the Old Khan King." ”
Deng Yuanlei glanced at Lu Mian beside him, and got a hint that he could tell the truth, and laughed a few times, "It's ridiculous, the head of the old Khan King is in this mausoleum, and that Khan King's winged guard is simply playing tricks on everyone, Dragon King, even you have been deceived, right?"
Old man Mu also laughed a few times like Deng Yuanlei, but he really had nothing to show off, Mo Lin actually handed over a fake head, which was not expected by him at all, so he had to bite the bullet and say: "Stupid, the Dragon King doesn't know anything, it's just teasing you, do you think the head here is real? ”
Deng Yuanlei was just about to refute, but Lu Mian was already impatient, "Less nonsense, go on." ”
Although Deng Yuanlei's internal strength recovered, the injuries on his body were not good, especially dragging an injured leg, he really didn't want to fight in the front, but the order of the head did not dare to disobey, so he had to move forward slowly, vigilantly scanning the bookshelves left and right, suddenly changed his mind, sped up and went straight to the old man Mu, "Abolish your old devil first." ”
The old man Mu took a step back, and he had already pasted it to the wall, "Hehe, I'm defenseless, you are a decent family in the Central Plains, you have to abide by some rules, in fact, we don't have any hatred, even the Dragon King doesn't have a deep hatred with you." ”
"No hatred?" Deng Yuanlei was quite unlucky this day, he had already endured it for a long time, and he was all vented at this moment, "The Dragon King claimed to have broken the Qingcheng Sect's Lingxi Wisdom Sword, but in fact, it was opportunistic and conspiratorial, and he also preached everywhere, this revenge is not avenged, and it is ...... in vain."
Poof, the oil lamp on the left wall went out almost at the same time.
The dragon king didn't speak, Lu Deng and the others guessed that he might be going to launch a sneak attack, and they kept on their guard, as soon as the lights went out, the two immediately pounced on the left, although they both had a leg injury, their movements were not slow at all.
Gu Shenwei launched an attack behind Lu Mian.
As soon as the two of them challenged, Gu Shenwei had already thought of a strategy, tilted the oil lamp on the left one by one, and then ambushed behind a bookshelf on the right, waiting for the moment when the oil lamp ran out.
Lu Mian was fooled, and Gu Shenwei was able to see the real swordsmanship of this Qingcheng master for the first time.
He once tattooed more than 70 cavalrymen on their foreheads, and then retreated, showing the essence of Gu's swordsmanship with a long sword in front of the Dragon King.
Such a master, in the basement, just kept throwing flying knives, and didn't have time to perform swordsmanship.
Gu Shenwei is ninety percent sure that this knife will be hit, as long as he kills Lu Mian, Deng Yuanlei is not afraid.
Lu Mian had just disappeared into the darkness on the left side of the library, and Gu Shenwei's knife had already followed him like a shadow.
There was nothing above the position that should have been Lu Mian's existence, he seemed to have accelerated his speed at the moment of entering the darkness, Gu Shenwei could continue to advance with his sword, but his move was old, and if he missed the blow, he would fall into passivity.
Gu Shenwei was shocked in his heart, this Qingcheng master's skills were more powerful than expected, so he chose to retreat.
At the same moment as the thought turned, a sword stabbed out of the darkness, as fast as a snake's letter.
Gu Shenwei turned around and got into the middle of the two rows of bookshelves behind.
The left side was dark, the right side was bright, no one spoke for a while, and finally Deng Yuanlei asked tentatively: "Master, ...... you?"
"I'm fine, I'm at the door. Lu Mian's voice filled the entire room, and he couldn't tell the direction.
Deng Yuanlei was overjoyed, dragged his legs back to the door, and said as he walked: "Dragon King, don't you claim that you can defeat the Qingcheng faction face to face? Why don't you dare to show up? If you are a hero, don't hide." ”
Probably thinking that these words would help provoke the Dragon King, Lu Mian did not stop it, Deng Yuanlei was sure that the master's swordsmanship was higher at this time, and he became more and more proud, "I forgot, the Dragon King was originally a killer, so he likes to sneak attack in the dark, like a mouse." ”
Gu Shenwei was not affected, but the old man in the innermost part of the library was angry, grabbed the book casually, and knocked over the oil lamp on the right side one by one, "What's wrong with the sneak attack in the dark? You can't see it, I can't see it, it's just as fair." You nine major factions in the Central Plains rely on the strength of the people to control the martial arts, of course you are willing to talk about the stinky rules, do you have to abide by others even if they have no power and power? Knowing that you can't beat them, you have to send them face to face? If you want to be beautiful, the Dragon King, you must give them two knives from behind. ”
After a while, Old Man Mu knocked over most of the oil lamps, and lit a book, let him step on it, only the two lamps near the door He didn't dare to approach, Deng Yuanlei was eyeing the tiger, if he hadn't been ordered to guard the door, he would have killed Old Man Mu with a sword.
Gu Shenwei and Lu Mian didn't squeak, as if they had disappeared, in fact, they had both lost their traces of each other.
Lu Mian had only made one sword, but Gu Shenwei felt a strong pressure from it.
The sword of the head of Qingcheng is different, the most powerful thing is neither fast nor strong, but surprise, Lu Mian seems to have calculated every move of the dragon king, so he can dodge and make moves in advance.
Gu Shenwei wondered if his sword skills had declined, just like Chu Nanping, sometimes this kind of decline was difficult for him to detect, and he had to wait until he was fighting against the enemy to suddenly find that the weapon in his hand could no longer be used as he wanted.
Doubt itself is a weakening, Gu Shenwei squatted on the top of the bookshelf and didn't move for a long time.
Deng Yuanlei waited a little anxiously, "Master, do you want me to light the lamp?"
Lu Mian remained silent, Deng Yuanlei understood that "no", so he stayed at the door steadily, he didn't feel that his skills were worse than the Dragon King, but he was injured too much, and he made an excuse for himself.
Gu Shenwei couldn't help but think, if Lu Mian had just fallen into the basement and made a direct move, would he have been defeated long ago? He moved slightly, listened to the sounds around him, and inadvertently touched the book in his arms, and suddenly understood that his hesitation had nothing to do with Lu Mian, but from the book of no way.
Old man Mu claimed that the martial arts secrets here were all fake, it was too exaggerated, there were many masters in the North Court, and they had their own ability to distinguish, so that none of the martial arts atlases collected by the old Khan King were true, especially this book of no Tao looked like a modern forgery.
But the content of the book is very strange, it is not an internal method, but a large number of esoteric expositions, Gu Shenwei has not had time to read it, and there are very few things to understand, but one of the parables impresses him deeply.
As a typical Taoist exercise, it borrowed a Buddhist story, saying that there is a monk who has practiced for many years, and has been unable to attain the Tao, so he can't help but blame himself, sighing that this body is useless, and he is a drag in vain, so he picked up a sharp stone and stabbed his neck to commit suicide.
Unswerving, killing and witnessing, this is the metaphor of the whole story, and it seems to be the truth that this book of no Tao wants to clarify.
The Book of the Dead, the Book of the Dao, and the Sumeru Mustard, like the three stern teachers, each of them asks the students to believe in what they teach in an unquestionable tone, and Gu Shenwei is at a loss, just as the old man Mu said, this may also be a perfectly packaged joke, "killing" is easy, "proving the fruit" is difficult, maybe it is not the real Wudao book at all.
Thinking of this, Gu Shenwei didn't even remember whether the old book in his arms was written with the three words "Dao Shu", it was just stacked on top of each other with the two manuscripts.
He had stayed in the same place for too long, and Lu Mian's long sword stabbed silently, and the alert instinct that Gu Shenwei had cultivated over the years still played a role, pulling him out of his untimely contemplation.
Gu Shenwei jumped off the bookshelf, and he could almost feel the slight touch of the sword blade on his arm.
Before he landed, another palm struck silently, and the position of the sword and the palm was very different, as if two people were making a move.
Gu Shenwei had no choice but to slap his palm.
Lu Mian's internal strength is also different from others, it is not coming continuously, but like a piece of hard black iron, it pounces in front of him.
Gu Shenwei was knocked away like a dead leaf, knocking over an entire row of books on the way.
"Master, have you succeeded?" Deng Yuanlei asked worriedly, which would determine his next move.
"The Dragon King really has some means. Lu Mian said coldly.
Deng Yuanlei calmed down, impulsively, and wanted to run over to check the situation, but as soon as he took a step, he was stopped by Lu Mian, "Don't move, just guard the door." ”
"Yes, sir. Deng Yuanlei replied respectfully, his confidence in Lu Mian was getting more and more confident, and his choice was becoming more and more steady, there was one thing that made him feel uneasy, the head of the sect once gave him a chance to defeat the Dragon King, but he failed to complete it.
"Break one of my legs, count it as your skill. Lu Mian walked in the direction of the Dragon King's flying out, "The cold ice strength is also worthy of its reputation, but your sword skills are a little disappointing to me, is the Western Regions killer such a level? It seems that Jinpeng Castle is only in vain." ”
A boulder was still pressing on Gu Shenwei's heart, and the danger was imminent, but he couldn't dispel the words "Killing Evidence" in his mind.
