Chapter 668: Rattan Chair
Nie Zeng's wish was to become a lone killer, with no fixed partner and no burden, everyone said it was impossible, but he persevered, because one day he was going to betray his cultivator and challenge the Dragon King.
The boy still had a pride in his heart, unwilling to give his feelings at this moment, and felt that being alone would reduce a lot of trouble.
The Dragon King and the teacher Hu Shiding knew Nie Zeng's purpose, but he still accepted him as a killer apprentice, and even designated him as a personal guard, which made the young man puzzled, and his heart was even more devastated: he studied hard for two years, and put in more than twice as much effort as his classmates, but in the eyes of the enemy, he was not even a threat.
Therefore, he cherished the opportunity to defend the Dragon King, observing his every move, more carefully and meticulously than the most obsessive admirer, hoping to learn from the experience and find loopholes.
In just three days, Nie Zeng only learned one thing: the Dragon King was good at disguising, if he hadn't seen his sword skills with his own eyes, Nie Zeng would have thought that the pale young man had a false name, and getting his current reputation was just a fluke.
Nie Zeng believed that in this delicate and hard cover, the Dragon King must have weaknesses.
He longed to continue following the Dragon King, but the Dragon King arranged a very dangerous burden for him.
It is not an exaggeration to say that Han Wuxian is a burden, no matter how good her martial arts are, how amazing her secret skills are, not being able to walk on her feet is a fatal flaw.
Looking at the transformed rattan chair, Nie Zeng's face turned pale, he looked up at Hu Shining twice, and finally obediently tied the rattan chair to his back, Hu Shining is an excellent teacher of transmission, which means that he will never be soft-hearted, Nie Zeng knows that his begging will not have an effect.
The boy turned his back to Han Wuxian and knelt down on one leg, taking this shame as one of the prices that must be paid in the process of revenge.
When Han Wuxian sat on the rattan chair, Nie Zeng's sweat hair stood on end, as if there was a huge fluffy spider, crawling from the back of his head to his heels.
Han Wuxian was tall, sitting on a rattan chair a head taller than Nie Zeng, and the weight was not low, at least twice as heavy as Nie Zeng imagined, he had to regain his luck before he could stand up.
He was carrying not a female killer, but a bronze statue.
Han Wuxian didn't care about his weight, he crossed one leg on the chair, the other leg hung down naturally, swaying slightly, he didn't even wear shoes, the white jade soles of his feet were in stark contrast to the eye-catching and ugly scars on his ankles, Hu Shining trembled in his heart, and hurriedly turned his head, secretly glad that he didn't have to carry out Nie Zeng's task.
Nie Zeng couldn't see the sole of his foot and the scar, but Han Wuxian gave him a great trouble, "Hey, your hair, it'...... It touched me. ”
Han Wuxian didn't seem to hear his words, and it wasn't until Nie Zeng impatiently wanted to remind him again that she said softly, "Don't you feel comfortable?"
The long hair poured down like a waterfall, blocking Nie Zeng's face.
The boy instinctively dodged left and right, and after two moves, he realized how stupid his actions were, and he was about to get angry, and his long hair had already moved away.
Han Wuxian put all his long hair in front of him, and gently wrapped his hands around it, as if it was a precious pipa, "This is my baby, others can't touch it casually." ”
Gu Shenwei walked into the tent and said, "Let's go." ”
It had just been night outside, and Nie Zeng's only consolation was that few people could see his current appearance, but tonight's action Dragon King brought out more than just two killers.
Shangguan Fei rode on the horse, looked at the strange combination curiously, endured and endured, and still asked, "Can she sit still?"
"How do I know?" Nie Zeng replied angrily, turned over on his horse, and deliberately tilted his body, hoping to shake off the burden behind him.
For a moment, Nie Zeng thought he had succeeded, and the weight on his back suddenly lightened, so that he jumped too high and almost jumped off the horse, but when he sat down, he immediately understood that it was an illusion, and Han Wuxian was still on the rattan chair, as heavy as a stone.
Nie Zeng couldn't see the situation behind him, but Shangguan Fei was both surprised and admired, this was the first time he had seen the hall master of Xiaoyue Hall, and it was also the first time he had seen such a miraculous light skill, Han Wuxian was like floating on a rattan chair, no matter how Nie Zeng swayed, it had no effect on her.
Han Wuxian smiled at him.
Shangguan Fei couldn't help but smile, he had no feelings for women, but Han Wuxian was different, her smile was charming but not the slightest teasing, and she was surprisingly similar to her mother, Mrs. Meng.
Before reacting, Shangguan Fei had already patted his horse closer.
A dark shadow passed in front of him.
If it weren't for the fact that he had participated in martial arts competitions one after another these days and learned a lot of kung fu from Old Man Mu, Shangguan Fei would definitely die at this time, but he still fell to the ground in embarrassment, got up and touched it, and a few blood marks appeared on his face.
"You...... You ......" Shangguan Fei felt that he had also wandered the rivers and lakes, and he had never seen a demon who killed people so casually, Old Man Mu was ruthless, and with martial arts, he would not tempt people to get close to him and then kill the killer for no reason.
Han Wuxian was still holding his long hair, and he took out a few of them individually, looking carefully at the bright moon in the sky, as if he had forgotten the sneak attack just now.
Shangguan Fei remounted his horse, vigilantly kept his distance from Han Wuxian, and asked Nie Zeng in a low voice, "What did the Dragon King take her out for?"
The dragon king had already set off, Nie Zeng used his legs hard, urging the horse forward, and the simplest action of patting the horse with his hand back, he would never dare to do," asked less. ”
"Cut. Shangguan Fei patted his horse and ran in front of Nie Zeng, he didn't have a good impression of this young man, and not long after he drove out of the camp, he slowed down again, "The Dragon King will definitely have to compete with others again." ”
"How do you know?" Nie Zeng slowly got used to the light and heavy burden behind him, and his tone was not so stiff.
"Ask less. Shangguan Fei said with a smile, and slapped his horse again to chase after the Dragon King.
After the third watch, the four arrived at their destination.
From a distance, there were several fires hundreds of steps away, and the sound of fighting and drinking faintly came, as if it had returned to the dragon court before the chaos.
A man in black appeared in the grass, Shangguan Fei recognized this as the Jinpeng killer, although he knew that the two sides had formed an alliance again, and saw that the killer of the stone castle was respectful to the Dragon King, but ignored himself, the Nine Young Masters, Shangguan Fei still felt sad.
"It's about to start, and the leader is Vajrayogini. The killer said these two words and disappeared into the Dark Realm.
Gu Shenwei didn't go straight to the firelight, but went around in a small circle, and the second killer appeared, Nie Zeng recognized that this was the young killer brought out by Hu Shining, and when an acquaintance saw his appearance, the young man's face was a little red.
"The world is a family. The young killer said softly, and secretly glanced at Nie Zeng as he stepped back.
Gu Shenwei began to explain tonight's action, and the Jinpeng killer discovered the whereabouts of the martial arts people in the Central Plains, and he immediately sent more people to inquire about the news, "There is a person named Vajra Toutuo who organized a competition for 100,000 taels of silver, and it is said that the winner can get more benefits, I need to know the details." ”
Shangguan Fei glanced at Nie Zeng, which meant "I guessed right", he knew that the Dragon King had nothing else to do with bringing him out, but the Dragon King's next decision made him unable to think of it.
"You two go to participate in the competition, Shangguan Fei, your only duty is to protect the safety of the two of them. ”
"Ah, it's better to let me compete......" Shangguan Fei's mind turned, "The so-called martial arts competition won't be a trap, right?"
"It's a trap, of course, and I need you to break it. Gu Shenwei didn't want to hide such an obvious plan.
Shangguan Fei had a bitter face, the Dragon King's plan was really not safe and worry-free, "I protect the two of them, and the Dragon King will protect us in secret, right?"
"As much as I can, I want to find out who set the trap and who the target is, so you're on your own. ”
Han Wuxian suddenly interjected and asked, "Will the lotus girl come?"
"As long as you show up, the disciples of Xiaoyue Hall will follow you. ”
"Alas, I really miss my girls, I wonder what the Dutch girl has trained them to be, and whether they can block my moves?"
The dragon king left his horses where they were and hid himself in the darkness.
Shangguan Fei looked at Nie Zeng, who was expressionless, and made sure that the Dragon King had gone away, and asked in a low voice, "You don't have any idea if you are used like this?"
"Aren't all killers like this?" Nie Zeng looked back suspiciously, "Are you the young master of Jinpeng Castle?"
Shangguan Fei scratched his head, indeed, the Jinpeng killer often had to perform very risky tasks to pave the way for his masters, and he had no problem with this, but when it was his turn to be used, it made him feel weird, and he had not changed after following the Dragon King for so long.
"Well, I hope the target of this trap isn't the Dragon King, otherwise the two of us will be out of luck. ”
Shangguan Fei deliberately ignored Han Wuxian, this woman's hair is quite bad, but she can't move her feet, and when she encounters an opponent with a quick body, she will definitely lose, and before he enters the crowd, he has already made up his mind that he will never fight hard for the two burdens.
"Password!" someone shouted in the dark.
"The world is a family. Shangguan Fei replied immediately.
The examination of the competition was obviously not very strict, and after the password, no one stopped it, until it was within the range of the firelight, a middle-aged man came over, holding a pen in his right hand and a flat-ended wooden board in his left hand, covered with white paper, "Come to Ruan Dong in Xia, ask the two of you...... Three honorable names?"
Ruan Donglai was shocked when he saw that there was still a pile of black hair on the top of Nie Zeng's head, and finally reacted in time, understanding that it was a woman, and he didn't show too much timidity, so he couldn't help but look at these three people differently.
"This is Nie Zeng, this is Han Wuxian, my name is ...... Nie Tian. "Shangguan Fei reported two real names and one fake name.
Ruan Donglai frowned slightly, he was from the Central Plains, he had never heard of these three names, he wrote them down one by one, and said politely: "I have admired the three big names for a long time, please come in, the competition will start immediately." ”
There were a lot of people present, about two or three hundred people, divided into several groups, drinking around the bonfire, Shangguan Fei and others just in time for the start of the competition, and everyone gathered towards the bonfire in the middle.
Han Wuxian immediately attracted a lot of attention, these people were all old rivers and lakes, and they were used to seeing strange people, but they still couldn't help but take a second look.
Nie Zeng lowered his head, thinking that he was a killer and didn't need to be famous, Han Wuxian was still beside him, occasionally raising his head and smiling at people.
"Vajra Touda!" the crowd shouted in unison, welcoming the rich man tonight.
A slightly hoarse heroic voice sounded, "Lao Tzu holds countless glory and wealth in his hands, whoever has the highest martial arts, I will share it with whomever I want, come on!"
Shangguan Fei followed behind Nie Han and the others, which was not only conducive to protection, but also convenient for escape, his eyes swept around, and suddenly found that someone was a little familiar, he did not look closely, but lowered his head and thought, and quickly remembered that that person was a guard of the old Khan King, and he had seen it once.
Sure enough, it's a trap, he thought.
