Chapter 40: Generosity

Zuo Hanbing's sword was originally a false move, the sword light was collected, and then the three swords were attacked at the same time, these three moves "lying on the ice for carp", "using ice to cause flies" and "drilling ice for fire" came very well.

Duan Hongyu couldn't think of a way to crack it for a while, so he had to fly to the side.

Hearing only the three sounds of "bang bang bang", the three big trees behind Duan Hongyu were instantly cut in two by the cold sword qi.

Duan Hongyu praised: "What a wonderful sword move." ”

Zuo Hanbing's body turned violently, and the sword light suddenly flourished, and the tide-like sword light rushed in, making it impossible to resist.

In the face of such a magnificent sword technique, Duan Hongyu couldn't help but be stunned, and said secretly: "It's not good, it seems that I'm going to lose today!" The two armies faced each other, and he didn't even have time to think about how to make a move, so he subconsciously probed into the sword light bush.

The sword light in the sky disappeared instantly, and when Duan Hongyu and Zuo Hanbing stabilized their figures, they saw that there was no sword in Zuo Hanbing's hand, and a string of blood was dripping from his right arm.

Zhan Tianlun and Tang Ma were originally desperate, no one expected Duan Hongyu to defeat Zuo Hanbing at the last moment, and they were all overjoyed. Tang Ma even screamed out.

Duan Hongyu didn't know what was going on, so he hurriedly put down his sword and said, "Zuo Gongzi, I lost!"

Zhan Tianlun and Tang Ma were puzzled for a moment when they heard Duan Hongyu say this. Tang Ma said: "Tenth brother, it's clear that you won, why do you want to admit defeat?"

Duan Hongyu shook his head and said, "You don't know, I don't even know how that sword was pierced, it's because I lost!"

Zuo Hanbing said: "Don't say it, winning is winning!"

Duan Hongyu hurriedly said: "Zuo Gongzi, this-"

Zuo Hanbing sighed: "I have never met an opponent in the world with this sword, but I didn't expect it to be broken by you today, but I don't know how you came up with the way to crack it?"

Duan Hongyu said: "Even I don't know how that sword was stabbed, but I didn't expect to win." ”

Zuo Hanbing said: "When the two armies meet, they both pick up each other's empty doors and start with them, but Gongzi actually stabbed at the place where the sword light overlapped, which is really incomprehensible." ”

Duan Hongyu couldn't explain it either. In fact, this seemingly casual sword is the stroke of genius of the top master. This kind of consciousness is naturally formed from countless life and death duels, it cannot be seen, touched, and there is no trace at all, and even the parties themselves cannot understand it, but no one can deny that it is the true highest state of martial arts.

Zuo Hanbing sighed: "The sword technique in this road is extremely tightly protected, only this flaw, and there is a large number of sword lights as cover, theoretically it is impossible to miss, today's defeat, I think it is the will of heaven!"

Duan Hongyu said: "Childe doesn't have to be depressed, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, not to mention that he is very lucky to win in the next place." ”

Zuo Hanbing shook his head and said, "But I still can't go up the mountain with you." ”

Tang Ma shouted: "Zuo Hanbing, if you say you will lose, you will go up the mountain with us to join the gang, why do you want to break your promise?"

Zuo Hanbing said: "I have never been defeated since I appeared in the rivers and lakes, I have always been arrogant, I can't see your arrogance to compete with you, this competition is definitely not my intention." ”

Zhan Tianlun said: "But as a swordsman, you should make a promise, if you lose, you have to go with us." If you don't go, then you don't believe in your words? I didn't expect that the world-famous Zuo Hanbing is actually a villain who goes back on his word!"

Zuo Hanbing said: "No matter what you say, I won't go with you." Since he broke his promise, he only died!" With that, he swung his sword and slashed at his neck.

Duan Hongyu hurriedly stepped forward and snatched the sword from Zuo Hanbing's hand and said, "Zuo Gongzi, why do you have to do this?"

Zuo Hanbing said: "The words have been spoken, there is nothing to change, this is also a punishment for my arrogance and ignorance, Childe doesn't have to stop me, I might as well die now." ”

Duan Hongyu knelt down on one knee and said frankly: "Zuo Gongzi, since you have peerless martial arts and lofty ambitions, why can't you conspire with us for a great cause, and you have to go to the rivers and lakes?

Zhan Tianlun and Tang Ma were all dumbfounded when they saw that Duan Hongyu did not hesitate to give up the first golden chair in order to invite Zuo Hanbing to join the gang.

Zuo Hanbing was cornered, and secondly, he was also moved by Duan Hongyu's sincerity, so he quickly knelt on the ground and said: "Thanks to Leader Duan for being so loving, I am willing to follow Leader Duan up the mountain, and I will not give up!"

Duan Hongyu was overjoyed, and he had to give up the first golden chair to Zuo Hanbing, but Zuo Hanbing just didn't accept it.

Zhan Tianlun said: "Tenth brother, since Zuo Gongzi doesn't want to sit on the first golden chair, you don't give in anymore!"

Duan Hongyu got up from the ground at this time, he stepped forward and picked up Zuo Hanbing, and he couldn't keep his mouth shut for a while. This misunderstanding was so dramatic that no one expected. Duan Hongyu and Zuo Hanbing slashed Zhan Tianlun and Tang Ma's prisoner cart and released the two.

Zuo Hanbing saw that Tang Ma's shoulder was still bleeding, and hurriedly said: "It's all the little brother who hurt his brother for a while!

Tang Ma smiled: "Brother, as long as you are willing to follow us up the mountain, you can poke a few more holes!" His joke made everyone laugh.

Zuo Hanbing became more and more ashamed, and took out the golden medicine and personally applied it to Tang Ma's wound.

Although they went through several dangers, they finally invited Zuo Hanbing to join the gang, and Duan Hongyu, Zhan Tianlun, and Tang Ma were all overjoyed.

Duan Hongyu said: "Zuo Gongzi, why we came to invite you to join the gang, we heard that Gongzi is amazingly talented. Our army is now in a predicament, and I would like to ask my son to guide us through the maze!"

Zuo Hanbing said: "Little brother is mediocre, how dare you show ugliness in front of the three elder brothers?"

Duan Hongyu said: "Childe doesn't have to be humble, just say it, I'll listen to you!"

Zuo Hanbing said: "Although the younger brother has been living in seclusion at home, he has also been paying attention to the changes in the situation in the world. Now that the Qing army has entered the customs, the soldiers are sharp, and they cannot confront it with the green forest heroes such as Wanjian Mountain, so they can only avoid their edge and develop into the shadows!"

Tang Maqi said: "What is the meaning of development in the shadows?"

Zuo Hanbing said: "The development of the world's forces is like the water of a river. The strength of the Yi army is simply not enough to compete with the Qing army and the Ming army, and then fight with the enemy like in Qingshakou, and can only be defeated. Only by preserving strength, avoiding decisive battles, and developing with peace of mind is the best policy. ”

Zhan Tianlun and Tang Ma are heroes of the green forest, they like to slash and kill face-to-face with the enemy, and when they heard that Zuo Hanbing actually proposed to preserve their strength and avoid the enemy's edge, they were puzzled for a while. Tang Ma said: "Brother, the Qing army is so rampant now, if you don't give it a head-on blow, when they have a firm foothold, it will be difficult to drive them away!"

Zuo Hanbing said: "But the strength of Wanjian Mountain is weak after all, even if you try your best, it is impossible to fundamentally change the pattern of the world, it is better to endure it, and it is not too late to take the initiative to attack when the army is strong enough to fight with the Qing army." ”

Duan Hongyu said: "Zuo Gongzi's words are reasonable, so I led the crowd to withdraw from Wanjian Mountain, also to avoid the enemy's edge. ”
