Chapter 40: Wrestling with the Parties (7)
Man Hongsha's proposal of "competition to determine life and death" was already beyond the expectations of many experienced people in the rivers and lakes present, not to mention the well-informed Zhuge Hui, and even Peng Zhen, who thought he knew Man Hongsha very well, was also taken aback. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć However, these people didn't expect that Sikong Gu actually agreed to it like this, and he didn't even try to "bargain".
"Is this Sikong Gu really as powerful as the legend on the rivers and lakes? ā
Don't complain that Peng Zhen thought so, that is, the two families behind Sikong Gu, and he also felt that he should re-evaluate the character of Sikong Gu. Of course, Chu Cang, who already knew that Chu Zhongcheng had a secret agreement with Sikong Gu, was holding his sword and looking at Zhuge Hui coldly at this time, frowning, and playing with the folding fan in his hand.
When Zhuge Hui noticed that there was any malicious gaze, Chu Cang had already turned his head away, leaving only an expressionless side face. However, when he turned his head, Chu Cang suddenly felt chills all over his body, and after making an inspection, he found that Ji Hualian was looking towards him. After finding that Chu Cang noticed his gaze, Ji Hualian gave a smile, and then turned his head and looked at the "battlefield" that everyone had conceded.
In the rivers and lakes, places such as inn lobbies, the backyards of mansions, and the mountain passes of sects are always the places where the most blood is shed. After all, most of the people in the rivers and lakes who pick quarrels and provoke troubles and brawls will not run to the middle of the street to shout "who dares to kill me" three times, and then everyone will fight in a table tennis battle.
It's just that a duel like today is very rare in the rivers and lakes, a master who can be compared with the top ten in the Who's Friends, and a rookie who is recognized by everyone as having the strength of the top ten, this is not a competition, but a life-and-death fight.
"Do you want to be prestigious to Jiangning? Brother Meng Yuan, you have to grasp it. With this in mind, Ji Hualian was engrossed in the battle situation after making Chu Cang feel some inexplicability.
The stainless steel sword that had just been stained with Shen Zhaoqian's blood on Sikong Gu's waist was still in the sheath, and the "double sword" full of red sand was only one, and the two of them were looking directly at their opponents at this time, and it was about a stick of incense.
Liu Su and Peng Zhen didn't know how many times they looked at each other, but they could only read deep doubts in each other's eyes. And some of the people in the rivers and lakes who came to help from the two families also looked at each other, not knowing what the two were doing in the center of the lobby.
When the whispers came from the crowd, Sikong Gu scratched the back of his neck, pursed his lips again, and asked, "What are the Manchu envoys waiting for?"
As soon as this remark came out, it caused a burst of chuckles, and at this time, no matter who knew it, Sikong Gu could already lead the people in the official mansion to arrest Man Hongsha and the others, so how could he let the reinforcements arrive? Under the hand in hand of the martial arts people and the government, no matter whether he was a black or white way, even a wild dog could not get into the dog hole at the root of the Jiangning city wall.
"Please take it. ā
Man Hongsha was still expressionless, holding a long sword in his left hand, and slowly stabbed towards Sikong Gu, even Zhuge Hui, who could not enter the Who's Friends, felt that this sword could be dodged even if he was lame.
When the long sword was less than an inch away from Sikong Gu's chest, Sikong Gu dodged to the right side very casually, although the red sand was in the air, the distance between Sikong Gu and Sikong Gu was greatly reduced, and the distance between the two was only one foot.
At this foot interval, if the three-foot sword naturally can't be put down, but if it is the short sword that is no more than a foot in the waist of the red sand, it can barely be made.
In an instant, a long and a short sharp weapon unsheathed suppressed the laughter of the two families, and the Sikong Gu long sword was only a few points out of the sheath, and between the sword boring and the scabbard, it was clear that a sword blade was revealed, and with this jaw, it locked the gilt golden short sword full of red sand.
In just a moment, Man Hongsha's body moved, and the long sword in his left hand attacked Sikong Gumian Gate like a spirit snake spitting out a letter, and Sikong Gu took two steps back, only then did he dodge the blow of Man Hongsha, and the steel long sword on his waist was also out of the sheath.
The moment Sikong Gu's long sword was unsheathed, Man Hongsha had already used the "third style" in the "Nine Swords of the God King", one long and one short, like a crab, attacking the right shoulder and stabbing the lower abdomen. If you block with an ordinary sword move, these two crabs will be combined into one place, which can hit the enemy's heart, this move is a killing move in the "Nine Swords of the God King", and its downward transformation is even infinite.
However, what shocked everyone at this moment was not how fierce this "God King Nine Swords Third Style" was, but when he saw Sikong Gu, he didn't dodge or dodge, and threw the long sword in his hand, and the hall was in an uproar. Even Ji Hualian, who knew the essence of the martial arts of the various factions, was also dumbfounded, where would someone abandon his blade when facing the enemy? No matter how strong the flying sword is, it is easier to block it than all the hidden weapons after taking it off, could it be that the hidden door has some mysterious kung fu?
Sure enough, after the red sand was shocked, the "crab ao" was retracted, and the long sword was bounced away, but the long sword was bounced off only half an inch, and the castration stopped. Man Hongsha could see it clearly: as soon as Sikong Du's figure moved, he had already caught the flying sword in front of Man Hongsha, not only castrating the long sword, but also cutting it down against the trend. This move "flying sword" surprised Man Hongsha, first, he didn't expect Sikong Gu's light skills to be so outstanding, but he didn't expect that Sikong Gu's flying sword seemed to be menacing, but in fact it was weak and weak, so it was left for the future.
As a result, the offensive and defensive momentum reversed, and Sikong Gu slashed up and down with a fast sword, and he was so tired of fighting with red sand that he had to defend with the "God King Nine Swords Second Style" combined with the "God King Nine Swords Fifth Style" two moves.
"From a crab to a white crane and an eagle? It seems that Man Qingyi secretly learned the kung fu in the past, and he changed it very badly. ā
In addition to sighing in his heart, Sikong Gu's fast sword formula became more and more violent, starting from the soft thorn of the red sand, the two of them only fought five or six times, and the red sand was already defeated.
Everyone in the hall is not blind, although they don't understand the subtlety of the martial arts, but they can also see that Sikong Gu has shown signs of victory in the situation on the field, and the martial arts people in the two families began to applaud and cheer. is Zhuge Hui, who has always been compared to "Little Zhuge by others", and his face is also half happy at this time.
And Ji Hualian frowned at this time, he was probably the only person who could see the subtlety of the moves of the two people on the stage, compared to Chu Cang, who was dedicated to studying the "Aotian Sword Technique", Ji Hualian obviously knew more about the martial arts of each faction.
"This sword is out of order, but its attack speed is as fast as lightning, and combined with Meng Yuan's strange body method, even I am afraid that I will not be able to survive twenty he. Mr. Bai once said that when Man Tsing Yi was crisscrossing the rivers and lakes, 'the changes were endless, and only the weak could be broken'. That is to say, this 'Nine Swords of the God King' pays attention to the two swords in a row, and the offensive and defensive momentum is elusive, but as long as the offensive or defense is weak, there is a chance to break it in one fell swoop. Now the red sand has all the true inheritance of his father, but he has inherited it along with his weaknesses. Looking at it today, Mr. Bai thinks that I 'will be able to see the difference after 50 moves', so he thinks that I can win after 50 moves, right? If I can defeat Man Hongsha now, then how can I defeat Meng Yuan? Can Mr. Bai see any flaws in Meng Yuan's sword moves?"
When Ji Hualian's heart was a little dull, but the situation changed suddenly, Ji Hualian hurriedly put down his thoughts and devoted himself to it.
Although Sikong Gu's steel long sword is also the top grade of the sword, it can't withstand such a rapid impact at all, after Sikong Gu's attack again, a crisp cracking sound sounded, and the eyes of the hall were good, and they all found that the steel long sword was one foot and two inches away, and a clear crack appeared.
Man Hongsha was in the middle of the battle, so he naturally saw it more clearly, and immediately transformed the twin swords from "Eagle and Crane Wings" to "Giant Pincers and Twin Ao" and attacked Sikong Gu, but the fleeting smile on Sikong Gu's face made Man Hongsha hesitate a little in his heart, and he was three points slower with this change.
This confrontation is the endgame, although Sikong Gu dodged the "double ao strangulation", but the clothes from the right shoulder to the lower abdomen have been torn, and there seems to be a blood line faintly. The long sword in his hand had been split into two parts, and the remaining blade about a foot long remained on the hilt, and as for the other part-
All the martial arts people in the lobby did not expect that the other section was deeply pierced into the right arm of Man Hongsha at this time, the break was at the front end, the tip of the sword was at the back end, and the blood was dripping down.
"You won. ā
Sikong Gu abandoned the broken sword and sighed, seemingly extremely unwilling.
