Chapter 308: Cowardice
It seems that there are thousands of ice needles fighting in the body, swimming from the internal organs to the surface of the body, and finally drilling out of the skin to take away a trace of cold, a new batch of ice needles is produced in the dantian, Gu Shen in order to protect the heart, the feeling is not numb, but more and more acute, and the pain is multiplied.
He had cotton wool stuffed in his ears and couldn't hear his surroundings, but he still couldn't help but open his eyes when danger approached.
There was a panicked little knife man standing at the door, his red face clear in the dark night.
This is the third hour of the exorcism of the exercises, the most difficult period has passed, Gu Shenwei still needs to hold on for another three hours, but he has been able to devote some of his energy to paying attention to the external situation.
The little knifeman took a few steps closer, as if he was saying something sadly and angrily, but Gu Shenwei didn't hear a word, and he could see a strong hostility on that childish face.
The greatest danger is not from the teenagers, but from outside the house.
On the thick snow, the footprints left by the little knife man were faintly visible, and there was a person hiding in the shadows, Gu Shenwei could feel that the murderous aura of that person was extremely weak, but it was unshakable.
The little swordsman is both sad and angry, and the state of the dragon king seems to be the legendary madness, but even in this state, the demon still ignores himself, as if his existence is insignificant.
β...... I want revenge, I wanted to worship you as a teacher, learn your martial arts and kill you again, God has eyes, so that you can't move, give me a chance to avenge my blood hatred......"
The dragon king remained silent, the painful expression on his face weakened, and his gaze was cold and empty, which made the young man even more angry.
The boy pulled out the single knife, which seemed a little too big for him, thinking that he could kill the enemy in just three steps, but there seemed to be an invisible net in front of him, and the more he tried to take a step forward, the greater the resistance he encountered.
He was cowardly, all kinds of legends about the dragon king, and the scene of the dragon king slaughtering the thieves that he saw with his own eyes in the middle of the night, caused fear like a heavy boulder, pressing on the young man's not broad shoulders, making his arms tremble, his heart beating wildly, and his legs and feet falling.
He hated himself for not being angry, but the tip of the sword was only three feet away from the Dragon King, and he couldn't move forward.
A shadow appeared behind him, and then, a strong hand supported the young man's arm, and a cold voice like hypnotic sounded above his head, "Do you want to regret it for the rest of your life?"
The boy bit his lip and got a force from the mysterious cloaked man, and took a light step and stabbed the dragon king in the heart.
Like an ice sculpture, the dragon king doesn't even seem to have the strength to roll his eyes.
The boy is like a hungry wild cat, desperate to pounce on his prey, no matter how big the difference in his own strength is.
The cloaked man only took a step back at the moment when the young man made a move, he was a cautious person, he had always been like this, and the opportunity to kill the dragon king came so easily and so coincidentally, which made him even more vigilant.
But things don't always go as planned.
The desperate young man, as soon as the tip of the knife touched the dragon king's heart, he had exhausted all his strength, and the ice-like dragon king suddenly took out his sword, and the cautious cloaked man struck the sword through the small knife.
All three loses.
The boy knelt on the ground, trembling and weak, and threw his knife aside, not seeing what was happening above his head at all.
The cloaked man hastily retreated to the door, clutching his neck, his face as if he had seen a ghost, but he did not die, but sat on the threshold.
Gu Shenwei was the most seriously injured, and the swordsmanship of the "Book of the Dead" paid attention to making all-out moves, killing with one blow, but most of his internal force was used to protect his heart and fight against the constantly emerging ice, although the move just now only used a very short moment, but it called a considerable amount of internal force.
The chill in his body took advantage of the weakness, several important meridians were damaged at the same time, and a mouthful of blood gushed to his throat, Gu Shenwei barely held back, but his heart was greatly shaken, and he was afraid that this time he would bring great harm to himself.
"Good evil swordsmanship. The cloaked man was half admiring and half frightened, he was not dead, but the inner breath in the dantian was like spring ice and snow, quickly evaporating, escaping from every pore.
"Hey, crying boy, get up. The cloaked man couldn't get up, and turned to the knife man, "Don't you want revenge? β
"IβI don't dare. The boy cried, tears of shame welling up in his eyes.
In his plan, revenge would be a long process, and he did not expect that the opportunity would come so quickly.
"He is the Dragon King, it's normal for you to be afraid, whoever kills someone for the first time is like this, it doesn't matter, stand up, as long as you stab, you are the one who killed the Dragon King, famous all over the world. The cloaked man patiently persuaded.
The boy knelt on the ground and shook his head desperately, "No, I can't, my legs are ......"
"Cowardly as a mouse, no blood!" the cloaked man failed to persuade him, so he used the method of agitation instead, "You have forgotten how your uncle died tragically? Have you forgotten all about it? Stand up for me, unproductive fellow!"
Gu Shenwei didn't hear what the young man said in front of the dragon king before, but the cloaked man heard it clearly outside the house.
The agitation method had an effect, and the young man grabbed the single knife again, stood up suddenly, and wiped away his tears, "That's right, I'm going to kill you, Dragon King, even if you are killed as soon as you go out, I'll kill you now." β
Gu Shenwei couldn't hear the young man's words, the dragon head sword was at hand, he could kill the fragile opponent with a sword in his hand, without using the sword technique of the Book of the Dead, but even then, it was inevitable to invoke a little internal force, which was enough to make him completely controlled by the madness, and he would be paralyzed if he didn't die.
The dignified Dragon King of the Snow Mountain would die at the hands of a young man with an unknown surname, and Gu Shen felt ridiculous for himself.
"Hey, who are you and what do you want to do?" the girl Jiang appeared at the door.
The Dragon King ordered everyone not to come to the front yard until dawn, Jiang faithfully carried out the order, and when the first light of day appeared, she was the first to check on the situation despite the dissuasion of others.
The cloaked man was shocked, his mind was all on the dragon king, and he didn't notice that outsiders were approaching, but he didn't have the strength to get up now, and his hope could only be pinned on the young man, "Hurry up!"
Jiang's questioning made the young man panic, but he didn't fall this time, and although the knife shook non-stop, it stabbed the dragon king's heart accurately.
Jiang was taken aback, stepped over the stranger at the door, pounced on him, pushed down the boy, and competed with him for weapons.
A single knife cut a wound in the dragon king's chest.
"Let go of me, I want revenge!"
The boy struggled desperately, but he was small and weak, Jiang was a girl in the Snow Mountain, although he didn't know martial arts, but his strength was much greater than that of ordinary girls, and he thought about the safety of the dragon king, so he was even more ruthless.
Jiang snatched the single knife, guarded in front of the dragon king, and said breathlessly, "Don't come over." Then he shouted, "Someone, there are assassins!"
The cloaked man got up suddenly, like a bouncing ball, and in an instant, Jiang was pushed to the corner, slammed into the wall, and fainted.
It turned out that the disappearance of internal strength was only temporary, the cloaked man let out a sigh, and couldn't help but show a sinister smile on his face, there was not much time, but it was enough for him to kill the dragon king, and then retreat with his whole body.
Gu Shenwei held the dragon head sword in his hand, knowing that he had no choice.
Swords come together.
The swordsmanship of the "Book of the Dead", which has never been false, missed, the dragon's head sword hit the single knife, and the cloaked man withdrew three steps with his strength, shooting out a hidden weapon, which hit the dragon king's chest.
The dragon king leaned over the bed.
The hidden weapon is poisonous, he will definitely die, the cloaked man thought, and just as he was about to go up to check, the guards of the Dragon King's Mansion heard Jiang's cry and had already rushed to the front yard.
He was dead, thought the cloaked man again, and exited the room, jumped onto the roof and fled into the city.
Gu Shenwei is still alive, but it is almost like dead.
The cotton wool in his ears had been removed, and the slightest sound around him shook his ears, but he couldn't hear the slightest meaning, and when his eyes opened, everything he saw was like an unreal dream.
What was the monk doing beating his chest? Why did the red-faced girl burst into tears? Why did the Xu brothers and sisters turn pale like papier-mΓ’chΓ© people?
Slowly, the sounds and sights finally converge and the world becomes real.
"It's all my fault, it's all my fault. Lianye blamed herself vigorously, "I fell for the trick, and I went around the city for a long time, and finally caught that guy, but he didn't know anything." It's all my fault. β
"The dragon king is awake. Xu Yan exclaimed in surprise.
"Why didn't I die?" Gu Shenwei asked softly, he remembered that he had fallen into the abyss, and his muscles were numb, and there should be no cure.
"It was Master Lotus Leaf who saved the Dragon King. Lin Xiaoshan, who was standing on the outermost part of the crowd, stepped forward and said.
Lotus Ye used internal strength to force out most of the toxins for the Dragon King, reorganize his heart, and pull him back from the Ghost Gate, but the monk still felt that the sin was greater than the merit, and said vigorously, "It's all my fault."
Gu Shen was lucky, and his heart was cold, he was not dead, but his internal breath was sticking together like glue, and he couldn't move at all, he could only barely speak now, and he didn't even have the strength to raise his hand.
"The Dragon King has just woken up, let's not disturb him, let him have a good rest, Jiang stays. Xu Yan whispered, everyone nodded, and went out one after another.
Lin Xiaoshan walked last, he had already arrived at the door, it seemed that there was something that could not be decided, and he turned around again, "Dragon King, there is one thing ......"
"The Dragon King is already like this......" Jiang said angrily.
Lin Xiaoshan's face was a little red, but he still insisted on not leaving.
"Say it. Gu Shenwei said weakly, he had never felt so weak.
"The Meng clan sent someone to have an interview with the Dragon King, saying that it was also on behalf of Mrs. Meng. β
Gu Shenwei threatened Mrs. Meng with a "secret", she wanted to find out the truth, "Tell him, let Shangguan Hong come." β
Lin Xiaoshan was stunned for a moment, he didn't know what the illegitimate son of King Dubu had to do with this matter, but he still whispered.
Gu Shenwei believed that reporting Shangguan Hong's name would make Madame Meng believe that the secret was indeed in the hands of the Dragon King.
Lin Xiaoshan was just about to leave, but Gu Shenwei asked again, "Who is that young man?"
"He said that his name was Nie Zeng, and that the Dragon King had killed his uncle Nie Qing's family a few years ago, and that I had locked him up and waited for the Dragon King to be released. β
Gu Shenwei immediately remembered that a few years ago, he and his master Tie Hanfeng killed a family of three, and the swordsman in the family was called Nie Qing.
"Let him go. Gu Shenwei said, neither soft-hearted nor contemptuous, "Everyone has the right to revenge." β
