Chapter 6: The Howling Ancient Sword
Sima Nan was dodged by the flower butterfly before he finished his move, and immediately changed his move in the air, clapping his palms continuously, just in time to meet the two silver chains that the flower butterfly fought back. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 He let out a loud shout, turning his palm into a claw with one hand, and quickly took it to the end of the chain, and with the other hand he used his internal strength, and continued to beat continuously in the sound of breaking the shout, trying to tear the entanglement of the silver chain with the strength of his fierce palm. This change of trick is as fast as lightning, and it is precisely with the method of breaking through the soft and powerful. If you don't have a 100% grasp of your own internal strength, who would dare to do this!
Seeing that Sima Nan changed his moves so quickly, Hua Butterfly didn't dare to be careless, and the silver chain move in his hand also changed, only listening to the sound of 'whirring' a few times, the silver chain fluttered and danced, trembling up and down. In an instant, the offensive of the double chains changed drastically, from two points to four points, from four points to eight points, and from eight points to sixteen points...... In the end, it is difficult to tell with the naked eye exactly how many points of attack there are.
Sima Nan saw that the double silver chains waved by the flowers and butterflies advanced and retreated in an orderly manner, the virtual and the real were born together, and sometimes they were flying wildly, sometimes like random flowers into the eyes, and the moves were fatal, and sometimes the moves were feminine and continuous, and they were entangled and beaten. He was not afraid, sneered a few times, his palms were wrong in his chest, he was still fast and fast, and when his body moved quickly, he made a move faster than a move, and when it was really like a rainstorm, it was as fast as a dragon.
Zheng Ping and the others saw that the double silver chains shaken out by the flowers and butterflies changed wonderfully, dazzling, like a cluster of silver filaments flying chaotically, more like a mist in the dense forest, which was elusive, and they were extremely worried that Sima Nan, who was firmly engulfed in it, was not an opponent. I didn't know how to help, but I heard the sound of 'poof' and 'dangdang' drumming like popping beans, and the flower butterfly screamed softly, as if being shocked, and his body shook, and his face turned pale in an instant. It turned out that the double silver chain net that she shook with all her might was actually torn open by Sima Nan with the power of her flesh and blood palms.
Now that the double silver chain network has been broken, the opportunity for the flower butterfly to seize it has been lost.
Seeing this, Sima Nan couldn't help but laugh proudly a few times, stepped forward, and struck out two palms with 'Huhu'. These two palms are extraordinary, the palms are strong, and Sha Feishi walks, which has already condensed his life's skills. How could Hua Butterfly have imagined that the double silver chain net she had painstakingly woven would be torn apart by Sima Nan's pair of fleshy palms in an instant, and under the fright, it was difficult to close the move.
She barely supported a few moves, but in the face of Sima Nan's continuous clapping, she had to retreat step by step.
The flowers and butterflies retreated one after another, and Sima Nan would follow closely and slap out two palms. As a result, she had to take two more steps back...... This retreat and advance, the victory and defeat have been extremely obvious.
Seeing that the flower butterfly was forced to be powerless, he wanted to retreat again, but his feet were powerless. At this time, Sima Nan only needed to shoot two more palms, and the flower butterfly was not dead or crippled, but at this moment, more than ten miles away from here, behind the mountain yin shrouded in gray clouds, there was a sudden long roar. The whistling sound is three short and two long, very sharp and urgent, which makes people can't help but feel their hearts beat faster and panic.
When Sima Nan heard the whistling, his face changed greatly, and he slowed down a lot when he stepped out of his palm.
The flower butterfly was forced by Sima Nan's palm, and he couldn't support it, and when all his thoughts were lost, he suddenly felt that the opponent's palm was loosened, and there was no pressure at all. Strong players make moves, and victory and defeat happen in an instant. She said secretly: "It's so dangerous, thanks to these few long howls to save me! Who is this Chang Xiao? Why does it sound like being forced by the opponent to be in a hurry!" She felt strange in her heart, and saw Sima Nan accept the palm momentum, and said with a cold smile: "Flower Butterfly, count you lucky, you and I are undecided today, and the old man will have time to fight with you again in the future!"
Everyone heard Sima Nan raise his head to the sky and let out a long roar, his voice was sharp and high, piercing the eardrums, not only soaring into the sky, but also echoing in the dusky sky for a long time.
Hua Butterfly said movingly: "If you decide again in the future, you will decide again in the future...... Who is afraid of whom! Sima Nan, don't go, let's try again......" I was about to say a few more words to cheer myself up, but I saw Sima Nan's solemn expression, gloomy face, urging the black healthy horse, the horse neighed, jumped forward, the four hooves flew over, and the thorns rushed towards the mountain yin where the whistle sounded.
Li Xuan and Duan Xiaotian stood under the tethered horse stake and watched Sima Nan and the flower butterfly fight from afar, the battle was fierce, unprecedented, and they were amazed at the martial arts of the two, but they did not expect Sima Nan to suddenly jump after hearing the whistle. The two of them were taken aback, and seeing that Sima Nan didn't look at him, he hurriedly jumped on the horse and left with a long roar, looking at each other, and his heart was a little calmer.
Sima Nan left on horseback, very suddenly, which caught Zheng Ping and others by surprise.
They looked at Sima Nan's figure that was gradually moving away, and their hearts couldn't help sinking, and they looked at the flower butterfly with a wary face. Hua Butterfly didn't understand why Sima Nan left suddenly, but in this drama between her and Sima Nan, most of her internal strength had been consumed, and she only felt that the double silver chains in her hands were like the weight of a thousand gold.
Hua Butterfly took a deep breath, pretended to be nothing, walked slowly to his white horse, and jumped up with all his might, but deliberately did not rush to urge the horse to leave, but lowered his head to tidy up his wrinkled clothes, and calmly combed his horsehair.
Zheng Ping and the others were stunned in place, looking at the flowers and butterflies as if nothing had happened, and they didn't dare to approach. The flower butterfly saw it clearly, and secretly said that it was lucky. She looked at Zheng Ping and the others with a sinking face, and asked coldly, "Why did Sima Nan leave?" Hmph, I don't know you either. If he still has the life to come back, tell me for me, he tried his best to take in Xie Muqing's matter, my gang will definitely not stop, if he takes the initiative to hand it over, we can still be friends!"
Li Xuan saw the flowers and butterflies running away, Zheng Ping and the others scolded her back a few times, and they all got on the horse and galloped away, and couldn't help laughing in their hearts, and turned around to invite Duan Xiaotian back to the store to drink, but saw the old man walking out of the store slowly, standing at the door of the store and looking into the distance with a smile. The old man seemed to be in a better mood at this time, carrying a pair of big hands on his back, and his body was much taller. Li Xuan saw that when he was sitting in the corner of the store before, his spirit was like two people, and he couldn't help but wonder, and said in his heart: "The world is chaotic, there are more and more rights and wrongs in the world, and capable people are afraid that they are no longer willing to be lonely, and they all take advantage of the situation to reappear in the rivers and lakes." This magnificent old man in front of him may be one of them! But who is he?"
As soon as he finished thinking about it, he reached out to pull Duan Xiaotian's hand, but when he shook his right hand, he realized that he was actually in a cold sweat.
Duan Xiaotian was grabbed by Li Xuan's hand, hurriedly shook it lightly, smiled awkwardly, and sighed: "Brother, wait, look at this old man...... This old man...... Standing at the door of the store all the time, his body is steady, his expression is pale, I'm afraid it's weird......! We...... Let's wait before entering the store!" Li Xuan stumbled when he heard him, he didn't know why, he was slightly stunned, and was about to ask why, but he saw the smile on the old man standing on the stone steps gradually disappearing, looking into the distance, slightly depressed.
When the old man stared at the direction of the flower butterfly, he seemed to have made up his mind, a sharp cold light flashed in his eyes, and the corners of his closed mouth smiled coldly inexplicably, and suddenly made a strange gesture to the dozen people scattered in front of the store.
When did these dozen or so people arrive in front of the store? Li Xuan saw that these people were dressed in black clothes and black pants, burly and strong, and everyone was wearing Fan Yang hats. Aren't these people the people in black who are in the tea shed and ask the old tea seller about the 'Kelaixi' hotel?
The black-clothed man at the head saw the old man's gesture, did not hesitate, took a few steps to the bottom of the stone steps, bowed slightly, and seemed to be whispering hello.
Although Li Xuan couldn't see the appearance of the man in black clearly, he saw that he was steady, his steps were light, and he was strong and powerful when he raised his hands. He was surprised in his heart, and couldn't help but glance at Duan Xiaotian, and turned his head to see that the old man seemed to be telling the man in black something. When the black-clothed man heard this, he couldn't stop nodding his head, and finally hurriedly turned around to the tethered horse, pulled over a blue-gray high-headed horse, whistled, and the rest of the dozen or so people got on the horse when they heard the sound, and arched their hands to the old man from a distance, and then ran in the direction where the flower butterfly disappeared.
The old man saw the black-clothed man and his entourage leave on horseback, and slowly returned to the store. Li Xuan saw that there was nothing unusual in front of the store, so he and Duan Xiaotian also returned to the store. Seeing the return of all the diners, the shopkeeper hurriedly refilled the water wine, and after a while, the atmosphere gradually became noisy.
Li Xuan and Duan Xiaotian sat down again at the original wine table, looked around, and saw that the diners who were watching Sima Nan and the flower butterfly fight had dispersed a little, and the old man and the young were still sitting in the corner of the store, but the previous look was gone.
Duan Xiaotian looked around the store in a daze, as if he was full of worries, and the whole person was silent. Li Xuan saw that he had also become like two people, and he felt strange in his heart, and it was inconvenient to ask more questions, so he only drank with him. The two exchanged glasses of wine, and when they passed for a while, they had eaten more than a dozen catties of sorghum and five or six catties of beef. Duan Xiaotian drank four or five catties of liquor, and his mood seemed to be much better, seeing that Li Xuan drank these liquors, his face did not change, and he was not drunk, and he couldn't help but praise: "I didn't expect the Li family brothers to look weak, but they are a good amount of wine." Li Xuan smiled, shook his head and said, "Isn't my brother also a lot of alcohol? Although I don't drink much during the day, I rarely get drunk when I drink with others. Hey...... Brother, is it true that the younger brother is dull by nature, and the meridians and blood qi around his body are also dull to wine?" Duan Xiaotian laughed when he heard this: "Brother is joking! Seeing that you are drinking, your face is as usual, you are a person born with extraordinary alcohol, what is related to the meridians and blood qi, and the dullness of wine!"
Before they knew it, the two drank more than a dozen glasses of sorghum soju.
Duan Xiaotian was drunk, glanced at the ancient sword package that Li Xuan was carrying, and asked with a curious smile: "What is my brother carrying? After eating wine for such a long time, he is reluctant to release it?"
Seeing him ask, Li Xuan smiled very heartily and said, "Brother didn't mention it, I forgot the package behind me, hehe...... It's just an ancient sword. As he spoke, he unloaded the package from his back, laid it flat on the table, and said: "It was received by the big shopkeeper of my Chang'an branch, Ma Youma, and it has been more than half a year since my branch! The shopkeeper of Martha was worried that he was gone, so he folded the money and handed it over to the younger brother for disposal. ”
Duan Xiaotian nodded. Li Xuan said again: "The younger brother has always learned swords, and he doesn't know how to use swords, so he can only see that this sword is elegant and clumsy, and the sharpness is abnormal, but I don't know who forged it, where it came from, and how much it costs." Well, now that I have it, I plan to ask someone to ask Master Guiguzi of Cangyan Mountain to inspect it after returning to Taiyuan. Duan Xiaotian was curious when he heard this, and said proudly: "Brother, I am also a person who has been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, I have seen some famous people and know some sharp weapons, if my brother is willing, and I can trust to be my brother, can you be willing to unwrap the package and take a look with me?"
Li Xuan smiled and said, "Brother is polite! With that, he unloaded the package and took out the sword.
Duan Xiaotian took the ancient sword with both hands, but when he saw that the scabbard was clumsy, it was very heavy. Although the scabbard of the ancient sword is made of fine shark skin, it is not inset with any ornaments such as precious stones. He looked closely, and saw that the hilt of the ancient sword was two inches longer than the handle of an ordinary sword, wrapped in thick blue silk, held with one hand, dry and full, and sighed, and gently pulled the sword out of the scabbard.
The ancient sword was unsheathed, the dragon groaned, the blue-blue sword blade cut through the air like lightning, revealing an imminent cold air, and a shallow blood groove penetrated the blade, which seemed to tell people that this sword would not leave blood when it hurt people. Duan Xiaotian stroked the sword and praised: "It's really a good sword." "When I looked at the sword, I saw that there were two small ancient characters engraved on it. He twisted his eyebrows and looked at it for a long time, but he didn't know it, and couldn't help but sigh: "Undoubtedly, this sword is absolutely extraordinary." Just these two ancient words...... It's incomprehensible!"
Li Xuan nodded and said, "The junior brother doesn't know these two words, so I think it should be the name of the sword master or swordsmith back then!"
The old man and the big-eyed girl saw Li Xuan show off the ancient sword from a distance, and when they looked at each other, they seemed to be taken aback. He stroked his beard, frowned and shook his head, and pondered for a long time with his glass, as if he was puzzled, and forgot to drink all the wine in the glass.
Li Duan and the two were talking, and they heard Xiao Er singing a promise outside the store. The curtain outside the door sounded, and a person entered through the curtain outside the store. The two looked and saw that the person who came in was wearing a lilac satin robe, with a short figure, a big round head, a miserable white face like a squeezed persimmon, a garlic nose, and two faint eyebrows on the eyes of the little mouse. Such facial features, coupled with a perverse and obscene look and a trembling fat body, make people feel extremely uncomfortable.
