Chapter 14: Stranger

Pei Manzhen waited in the house for a long time but still didn't see Zhang San return, and he was worried in his heart, so he took the sword and went to the hillside outside the house to greet him. Seeing that the sky was dark, I was waiting anxiously, and a flute sound came, tactful and melodious, as if it was far away but not far, and it seemed to be near but not near. Pei Manzhen was relaxed when he heard it, but gradually the sound of the flute weakened, and then disappeared. Pei Manzhen felt like a delusion, as if in a dream, and forgot the troubles in his heart for a while.

The breeze stirred by the butterfly's wings still ripples in the forest, with a faint earthy fragrance, quiet and elegant. Suddenly, there was another wisp of flute sound, and suddenly there was silence in the forest, and even the noise of cicadas and birds suddenly disappeared. In the faintly flowing air with the scent of Konoha leaves, only the intermittent sound of the flute swirled in a low circle, and all the passing time suddenly seemed to rise and fall between the fingers of the blower. It's a beautiful piece of music that takes your breath away. Pei Manzhen froze again, and the sound of the flute was like that again, but this time with the sound of the flute, there was a singing voice that was both real and illusory, as if a few girls were whispering in their ears. The song is like spring and white snow, making people deep in the floating world, but there is a bright moon in the sky, a sense of the breeze, and the sound of nature.

Pei Manzhen only felt that this was the most beautiful singing voice in the world, and he really wanted to see the demeanor of the person who sang the flute. Thinking of this, my body unconsciously warmed up, and my feet walked forward without obeying the call. After a while, the singing gradually approached, and Pei Manzhen saw several purple-clothed girls standing on the hillside not far away, waving to him, and faintly heard someone say to her...... Follow...... I...... "Go ......" is both real and illusory, and I don't know if it's singing, or if someone really speaks to her, but the sound of the flute and singing in her ears are too pleasant, even if the person who speaks is a ghost, she feels willing.

"Yike...... Ahh......h The crow's strange cry disrupted the melody of the music, and Pei Manzhen woke up suddenly: "What are you doing? Why is your heart beating so fast and your body so hot? Why do you want to walk towards the girls opposite?" In an instant, she understood that she might have been restricted by the sound of the notes of the group of girls just now. When she was a child, she had heard her master say that there were many strange people with strong martial arts or some evil demons who were good at using musical instruments and singing as weapons, inspiring people's hearts, controlling their consciousness, and thinking that today they were encountering this legendary strange person or evil demon. At that moment, he tore off the corner of his shirt and rubbed it and stuffed it into his ears. However, the sound of Xiao Le can still pass through the earbuds and penetrate the mind. Pei Manzhen was shocked and frightened, and shouted unconsciously, only to feel that the shouting slightly overshadowed the music, and his heart was also very happy.

When the girl on the other side saw her like this, she stopped her music and walked towards her. Pei Manzhen saw that the other party no longer used evil arts, and stopped shouting, pulled out his sword, stared at the other party and shouted, "Who are you? Why do you make this strange law harm me!" The girl on the other side did not answer, and still walked straight towards her. Pei Man was really scared, and shouted: "If you come over again, Hugh will blame the sword and have no eyes!" Seeing that the other party still didn't answer, he swung his horizontal sword towards the girl in the middle, making it a trick to see the sun.

There are a total of five girls, and the girls cut by Pei Manzhen do not dodge or dodge, as if they can't see the sword in front of them. Pei Manzhen originally wanted to use a sword to repel the other party, but at this time, she didn't react at all, after all, she was a soft-hearted person, and she was afraid of hurting the little girl in front of her, so she wanted to change her move to withdraw the sword. Unexpectedly, at this moment, the other four girls suddenly made a move, and without waiting for Pei Manzhen's reaction, they all drew their swords to block her sword. Look at the girl from before suddenly jumped up, flew out with a kick, hit Pei Manzhen in the chest, and kicked her to the ground. The other four girls put away their swords and jumped towards Pei Manzhen together, dividing her shoulders and abdomen. Pei Manzhen saw that he was invincible, and in despair, he didn't have time to swing his sword to resist, so he closed his eyes and shouted: "Save me!"

Strange to say, she shouted and then heard the girl screaming. Pei Manzhen opened his eyes and saw that one of the four women was sitting on the ground with her shoulders covered as if she had been hit by something. This change made Pei Manzhen surprised and delighted, looked around but did not see the person who rescued him, and the girls were even more surprised, they all pulled out their swords and looked around.

"Female dolls, why are you sitting there instead of standing up and cutting them?" came a hoarse old man's voice. There are many graves in this mountain forest, and it is dark at this time, and the voice of the old man is really terrifying. Pei Man really expected that the person who helped him must be out of good intentions, so he stood up and stabbed a girl in front of him with his sword. The girl's martial arts were not very weak, and when she saw her sword stabbing at her, she jumped to the side, and her backhand was a sword, slashing at Pei Manzhen's neck. This move is very subtle to attack instead of defending, Pei Manzhen saw that the opponent's martial arts were not weaker than his own, and he was fighting with her with vigor at the moment. The rest of the girls did not act rashly, but watched the battle while paying attention to their surroundings, for fear that the old man who spoke would suddenly release cold arrows. And the girl who was injured earlier lay on the ground and couldn't stop humming.

When the battle was not long, Pei Manzhen felt a faint pain in the part of his chest that was kicked, and his hand was a little slower. Seeing this, the girl pressed on, Pei Manzhen endured the pain and took the move concentratingly, but she was getting more and more behind. After fighting for a while, the girl saw Pei Man's vacuum, jumped up, and scattered flowers with a move, but seeing her sword dancing in the air and stabbing downward, Pei Manzhen didn't know how to deal with it for a while. I only heard the old man's voice in my ears again: "Looking at the flowers in the fog, looking at the moon in the water, the virtual and the real, the true and the false, don't care if it's true or not, stab her in the face." Pei Manzhen didn't have time to think about it, and said, "Thank you seniors for your advice!" Sure enough, when the girl saw this, she immediately turned from attack to defense, and protected her face with a horizontal sword. The two swords collided, Pei Manzhen only felt that a strong force suddenly pushed him from behind, and with a "dang" sound, the girl's sword was broken into two, but the sword in Pei Manzhen's hand stabbed the girl's face. The girl was horrified when she saw this, and hurriedly turned her head sideways, and only then did she escape, but her left cheek was opened from mouth to ear, and when she fell to the ground and screamed, it was already bloody.

The rest of the girls were shocked when they saw this, and the girl who had kicked down Pei Manzhen before shouted: "Liu Bofang, you are really shameless! Sneak up on some indiscriminate means to sneak attack, aren't you afraid of making people laugh when you spread it!" When he was young, the old man laughed and said, "Go back and tell the slut Gu Shuangshuang, she can do it, and the old man can do it too." If you don't get out of here, the dolls will all die. "Phew! shameless!" the girl spat out, and seeing that two of her were already wounded, she gave the other two a look, picked up the wounded and left.

Pei Manzhen was shocked, and it was normal to use a sword to cut the opponent's blade in two, but thinking back to the power of the push just now that he could help himself stab the opponent's sword body with the tip of the sword, this kind of skill was really unprecedented. If it weren't for this strongman today, I'm afraid it is unknown whether he would be able to get out. Thinking of this, he respectfully made a big gesture on the spot: "Thank you seniors for coming to the rescue, the little woman is grateful." ”

After waiting for a long time and no one answered, Pei Man really wondered if the other party had left, but he heard the ghostly voice of the old man in the forest: "Hahahaha, thank you for not having to." The voice is from far to near, and when I hear the word "la", I seem to feel that the other party is close to me. Pei Manzhen was excited, and turned around, and there was a grimace staring at her less than a fist before she met, so frightened that she screamed and jumped back. When I looked closely, I realized that there was an ugly old man in front of me. I saw that he was over sixty years old, short and fat, with dark and thick skin, sharp teeth and a nose, triangular eyes, and hanging eyebrows.
