Shangguan Hong's right hand pressed on the hilt of the sword, raised his head and said, "I want to see the Imperial Master." ”

There were already passers-by noticing him, pointing at him in the distance, but no one approached.

Shangguan Hong felt a burst of pride, he was not too nervous and afraid, and the only panic had nothing to do with the wild horses and onlookers.

The so-called king's wind is actually bullying, this is the simple conclusion he came to: Dubu King can scare people to death with a single look, because he has the highest martial arts in the stone castle and has a large group of killers; the dragon king is young but can command thousands of troops and horses, also because of the strong sword skills; the old man Mu is a typical example, the martial arts have changed from strong to weak, and the whole person is also judged like two people before and after.

His insuccess in the stone castle has nothing to do with whether he is smart or not, Zhang Ji first assisted him and then abandoned him, it was nothing more than discovering Shangguan Yun, who had better martial arts and a deeper background, but finally put the blame on him, claiming that Hong Gongzi was born with all kinds of weaknesses.

Hypocrisy!Shangguan Hong thought angrily, and this anger smoothly turned to the wild horse, and he even began to desire to compete with this one-armed monster in public.

The mustang didn't let him get his wish, and the face with the eyes wide apart disappeared, and even the windows were closed.

Shangguan Hong's confidence from the hilt of the sword quickly collapsed, he didn't know how to deal with the embarrassing situation in front of him, the Dubu King and the Dragon King definitely could.

Shangguan Hong seemed to hear Zhang Ji's disdainful smack, so he strode to the door and knocked hard.

The door of the proud building opened, and it was the young swordsman who announced the opening that came out, looked up and down, and said coldly: "Go to the old Li tavern in the back street and wait." ”

Shangguan Hong was stunned for a moment, "I'm not here to hire a killer, Mustang knows ......"

Before he finished speaking, the door was closed, making a boredom and unceremonious clang, Shangguan Hong raised his arm, wanting to knock and stop, the other party didn't say anything about the killer, maybe he really let himself go to the tavern and wait for the disciples of Xiaoyue Hall, the imperial master acted so secretly, but he was still indignant at the contempt of the wild horse.

I have to find a way to let the Imperial Master see my swordsmanship, Shangguan Hong thought to himself, taking this as the key to changing his fate.

There are several backstreets in Nancheng, and there are hundreds of people named Lao Li, but when these two titles are combined, they can only refer to one place.

Shangguan Hong quickly found a place, tied the horse outside, and stood at the door to look inside.

It's dirty and messy, and groups of swordsmen are drinking and bragging inside, listening to their meanings, it seems that they are all tired of the beauty and alcohol in Liuren Alley, and they have to come here to experience what "swordsmen's wine" tastes like.

Even in the past, Shangguan Hong did not come to this kind of place to drink, he liked cheap and quiet taverns, where the guests were very silent and easily did not talk to others, in Lao Li's tavern, any simple action could attract friends or enemies.

Shangguan Hong, who was standing at the door and looking around, provoked the enemy.

A drunken middle-aged swordsman walked to the door, ignoring the large enough gap, staring at Shangguan Hong, "I recognize you." ”

Shangguan Hong stepped aside and didn't squeak.

"Why don't you talk and pretend to be confused?"

"I don't know you. Shangguan Hong's hand touched the hilt of the sword again.

"You don't give money to the woman, gambling money and playing tricks, do you still want to rely on it? Today Lao Tzu wants to teach you a lesson. Without saying a word, the swordsman pounced.

Shangguan Hong hesitated for a moment, feeling that he didn't need to draw his sword to deal with such an alcoholic, so he swung his fist to block.

He was wrong, one of the family mottos of Jinpeng Castle was to be ruthless and not to underestimate the enemy under any circumstances, but he was blinded by a red-eyed swordsman.

When the swordsman rushed to Shangguan Hong's body less than half a foot in front of him, he had an extra dagger in his hand, and at the same time, the three swordsmen who were watching the excitement burst out at the same time, surrounding the target at the narrow door.

Shangguan Hong was taken aback, and it was too late to draw his sword again, so he jumped to the right sharply, hoping to make room to return the move.

The first dagger was stabbed on the waist, and the second dagger was in the right shoulder, and there was only a few feet of space left and right, and Shangguan Hong really couldn't dodge.

Pain, blood, bewilderment, fear, Shangguan Hong felt his whole body tremble, but he didn't want to die, especially at the hands of an unknown person in a low-level tavern.

Four daggers pounced again, blocking all his retreats.

Shangguan Hong fell, desperately pulling out the soft sword in his waist.

The unrelated drinkers watched the show excitedly, this is usually the best appetizer in Lao Li's restaurant, they don't care who wins and who loses, and they don't care which side's martial arts are more mysterious, they just want to see the splash of blood.

So when the strange party staggered to his feet, glaring blood-stained, he received enthusiastic cheers.

Shangguan Hong finally pulled out his sword and stabbed it out at a speed he couldn't even imagine, one sword, two swords...... Even if the other party has fallen like him, he will not stop.

Two provocative swordsmen fell in a pool of blood, and the other two ran away when they saw that the situation was not good.

Shangguan Hong felt angry, brandished his blood-stained soft sword, and screamed at the cheering crowd: "Wild horse! Come out, you dumb and cowardly, you have the ability to fight me to the death, I am not afraid of you! I am not afraid of you!"

The cheers grew louder.

Shangguan Hong's senses were more alert than ever, and he suddenly turned around and saw the young swordsman outside the door, this person was the one who carried him to the Lao Li Tavern.

"You ......"

Again, the man didn't listen to him, turned and walked away.

"Stop! I'll tell you to stop!" Shangguan Hong threw away the cheers behind him, holding his sword in his right hand and covering the wound on his abdomen with his left hand, and chased after him in pain, the pain was insignificant compared to the humiliation he had received.

The young swordsman's martial arts turned out to be good, running in front not far or close, no matter how much skill Shangguan Hong used, he was always unable to shorten the distance.

The streets and alleys are getting narrower and narrower, and there are fewer and fewer lights on both sides, but Shangguan Hong has not slowed down, the young swordsman running in front is just a relatively cold attitude, but at this moment, he carries all the humiliation and contempt in the world, Shangguan Hong has to kill him.

The young swordsman stopped abruptly and turned to face the tracker.

Shangguan Hong let out a low roar and stabbed with his sword.

The young swordsman spoke, and it was a woman who spoke in a completely different voice from before, "You want to see the Imperial Master?"

Shangguan Hong stopped in time, "You, you are a disciple of Xiaoyue Hall, why do you want people to ambush me?"

"Answer my question. ”

"Yes, I want to see the Imperial Master, and we agreed to meet every ten to fifteen days. As soon as he found out that the other party was from Xiaoyue Hall, the resentment in Shangguan Hong's heart immediately disappeared by half.

"Here you go. The swordswoman said, throwing him something.

Shangguan Hong received it in his hand and found that it was a small wooden box, "Thank you for the medicine, but I want to see the Imperial Master, there are some things...... I wanted to tell her in person. ”

The female swordsman was silent for a moment, "You're bleeding. ”

"Yes. Shangguan Hong knew that his wound was still bleeding, although it was a little painful, and his legs were still a little weak, but his overall feeling was very comfortable, as if there was a piece of ice in the hot summer.

If it goes on like this, the blood will run out, Shangguan Hong hurriedly opened the medicine box, but he was stunned, it was empty, "There is no medicine." He said blankly, and then his mind was blank.

There was no antidote in the box, but there was a faint fragrance, Shangguan Hong knew that he had been fooled, he rushed forward in anger, and fell into the snow after only one step.

The female swordsman looked at him and whispered, "I really don't understand, what can this kid do?"

The wild horse came out of the darkness, observed for a while, and picked up Shangguan Hong with one hand, the old proud disciple of the building did not follow him, so he couldn't speak.

Shangguan Hongyou woke up, felt a severe headache, and after a while, he thought about the experience before he fainted, hurriedly touched the soft sword on his waist, threw himself into the air, sat up on the ground, and found that the blade was placed beside him.

It was a small room, with doors and no windows, and a dull candle on the table.

"Anyone?" Shangguan Hong shouted, not getting any response, he got out of bed and put on his shoes, held the soft sword and walked slowly towards the door, trying to hold his breath.

The door was not locked, there was a long corridor outside, there were many torches, and there were small rooms on both sides that looked similar.

The corridor seemed to never end, Shangguan Hong was timid, and was just about to turn to Shun Yuan Road to go back, when a light suddenly appeared in the room next to him, startling him.

The door was hidden, and Shangguan Hong stood outside thinking for a long time before pushing the door in.

The same small room, no bed, only a table, a chair, a lamp and one person.

"Imperial Master. Shangguan Hong breathed a sigh of relief and involuntarily knelt down.

The lotus girl sat on the chair, pondering the lamp, as if she didn't hear his voice, and only turned her head slightly after a while, her eyes were indifferent, but there was no threat, in Shangguan Hong's opinion, this is the most gentle gaze in the world.

"What's the matter with me?"

"I've learned the swordsmanship of the Dead Man. Shangguan Hong knelt on the ground and said eagerly, "Really, I can do great things for the Imperial Master, and I don't have to stay by the Dragon King's side anymore." ”

"Big deal?"

The Lotus Girl's voice was very cold, but Shangguan Hong didn't understand it at all, "Believe me, I have realized the essence of the Dead Man's Sutra, it is ......" Finding that the eyes of the Imperial Master seemed to sweep over his wound, Shangguan Hong's face was red, "This injury has no effect on me, in fact, it is still good, I am not afraid of pain, I am not afraid of bloodshed, this is my trick." ”

"But you can't stop the most common drugs. ”

Shangguan Hong's face turned even redder, "I was careless for a while...... That's right, I'm not the best killer, I wasn't in the past, and probably won't be in the future, but now it's different, the Central Plains people are here, and the Dragon King and Dubu King have to accept face-to-face competitions. The Imperial Master also needs people who can compete, right? People who are proud of the building can be killers, but they don't know how to compete. ”

Shangguan Hong looked at the lotus girl expectantly, hoping to get even the slightest encouragement.

"I haven't figured out what to do with you yet. ”

"Yes, of course, everything is decided by the Master, and if necessary, I will try to be a killer. ”

"But since you're here, you can do something for me. ”

"The Imperial Master commanded. ”

"Go and get the dragon king. ”

Shangguan Hong was stunned, in his understanding, it seemed that the Imperial Master no longer needed the help of the Dragon King, "Yes, I'll go." ”

"It's not easy to get out, you have to kill someone. ”

Shangguan Hong was even more stunned, looking at the Imperial Master blankly, and suddenly realized that he and the Imperial Master were actually prisoners.
