Outside the town of Qiongta, the morning sun is brilliant, the sky is blue, and the yellow sand is like gold. The wind blew, and the desert as far as the eye could see was like a wave, moving slowly. The desert scenery is so peaceful and beautiful that it's hard to believe that a few days ago, there was a violent sandstorm here.

Wu San put his hands behind his back, looked up at the horizon in the distance, and said to himself: "The sun is like thick blood, and that bigger sandstorm is coming." When the time comes, perhaps all efforts and struggles will be in vain, and they can only be buried under this desert. He seemed to have a lot of unfulfilled ambition in his heart, and he seemed to be full of pessimism and despair.

Ah Yue stood a few steps away from him, but half sideways, his eyes looking to the other side, waiting for another person to appear.

She said softly: "Many people spend their lives clinging to something, working hard for it, exhausting themselves, and in the end they may not be able to do what they want, is all this effort worth it or not?"

It depends on whether the person doing the work thinks it is worth it, as long as he thinks it is worth it, he will not regret it even if he is broken. Wu San didn't look back, but said slowly.

Ah Yue sighed softly, looked at Wu San, and then looked at the dark night standing farther away, and suddenly felt very confused.

The Moonlight Clan wanders in this desert, like a rootless wanderer, like dust blown up by the wind, with nowhere to stay, no past, and no future.

Is she willing to spend her life like this? In this barren desert? There is no one around her, so she can only be alone with Qingyue every night, lonely and lonely?

A pair of townsfolk passing by, when they saw Ah Yue, bent down and saluted from a distance, their faces showing fervent piety, and their eyes full of tears of gratitude.

Ah Yue nodded in salute and thought, "This is the value and meaning of our Moonlight Clan's existence." Although they are also insignificant people, after all, we have done something for the local people to help them survive. And the existence of these people is the reason and cornerstone of our existence. ”

Ou Jingtian had already come to the outside of the town, although he was coarse and plain, but he reflected the brilliance of the morning sun, his tall and burly figure, and the spirit of the world, as if the gods had descended. On this fresh and vibrant morning, he was also thinking, what is everything he is doing, and what is this competition for?

Behind him, stood Gong Qianshan and Li Xiaoli.

Gong Qianshan's face was gloomy, his eyes were uncertain, he didn't know what he was thinking, he looked at the way in the town for a while, and looked at Ou Jingtian for a while. More often than not, he was looking at Wu San, and seemed to be far more interested in Wu San than in all the others. When no one noticed him, there was no over-the-top hatred in his eyes, but instead a kind of ferocity and ferocity as the beast was about to pounce on its prey.

Li Xiaoli is still a child, and he doesn't have so many calculations and concerns. His feelings were very direct, glaring at Wu San fiercely, and then turning his head to continue to look at Ou Jingtian intently. As soon as he saw Ou Jingtian, he was full of admiration, and thought to himself: "When I grow up in the future, I must be like Uncle Ou, a man who stands up to the sky and the earth, a chivalrous man...... can't be like that Jiangnan hero, who looks very angry, but in fact, not only blindly maintains the bad guys, but also fights with Uncle O. ”

He is looking forward to this competition and hopes that Ou Jingtian can win. If Ou Jingtian wins, he will be able to avenge his father. Although he is still young, he has begun to understand the stakes between things.

When he thought of Jiangnan Daxia in his heart, he saw Shen Yi walking from the town from a distance, covered in golden sunlight, with a calm face and steady steps.

Li Xiaoli's little heart suddenly became confused. Like Uncle O, this Jiangnan hero also looks full of justice and awe-inspiring spirit, but why have they become rivals? Why do they have to fight each other with swords even though they are all for justice? Could it be that this so-called chivalry is not as simple as people often say? He remembered his dead father, who he had admired since he was a child, and who had worked hard all his life to defend the frontier, and finally died for the sake of the country's security. Daddy died for the country and was a big hero. Uncle O's only for a righteous word, he traveled thousands of miles to help himself avenge, and of course he was also a big hero. But the legendary Jiangnan hero, for the sake of fairness for the people, punished adultery and evil together with Lord Yuwen, and upheld justice, isn't he also a big hero?

He looked at Ou Jingtian, and then looked at Shen Yi who stepped forward, if it weren't for his father's hatred, he was no longer so sure which side he should support.

Shen Yi stepped forward step by step, walked to the opposite side of Ou Jingtian, stopped, clasped his hands into fists, and said, "Brother Ou, Shen is here." ”

Ou Jingtian withdrew his gaze from a distance and looked at Shen Yi, his face did not have the hatred or excitement that he should have when facing a strong enemy, but showed a faint sadness. He looked Shen Yi up and down, clasped his fists with both hands, and said, "Lord Shen, you are here." ”

Liu Qingyun and Hua Susu, who were following behind Shen Yi, also stepped forward together.

Liu Qingyun looked up to the sky and stretched his waist and said, "Such a good day, do you have to fight?"

Shen Yi didn't speak, looking at Ou Jingtian.

Ou Jingtian said in a deep voice: "Wu San, I am bound to win. ”

Shen Yi smiled helplessly and said, "Shen can't hand over Wu San no matter what. ”

Ou Jingtian glanced at Shen Yi and turned his head and walked forward.

Shen Yi slowly followed.

Liu Qingyun and Hua Susu watched the two go away, but they had nothing to do but watch.

Li Xiaoli took Gong Qianshan's hand and said, "Uncle Qianshan, aren't they comparable? I don't want any of them to fail." ”

Gong Qianshan clenched Li Xiaoli's little hand and said with a smile: "If they don't decide the winner, they won't be able to catch Wu San, and if they can't catch Wu San, how can they avenge your father?

Shen Yi and Ou Jingtian stood face to face, but their swords were not unsheathed, and no one wanted to make the first move.

After a long time, Shen Yi said, "Brother Ou, please." ”

Ou Jingtian was silent, and said slowly: "You and I are called the two heroes of the north and the south, and we are originally chivalrous people, do we have to rely on force to decide the superior?"

As soon as the words came out, he himself was taken aback, and he couldn't imagine that for the first time in his life, he would retreat before competing against the enemy. He had unconsciously cherished and respected Shen Yi, and his will to fight was not as resolute as before, but the righteousness of avenging Li Xiaoli's father on his shoulders was still important and undiminished.

He is the same person as Shen Yi, no matter what, he will not shy away from retreating before chivalry, but ......

He really hoped that Shen Yi would retract his insistence so as to avoid a duel between the two. Although he had this hope in his heart, he also knew that the possibility of realizing this hope was very small. If Shen Yi could easily turn back and change his will, would it still be Shen Yi? It would not make him feel respect in his heart.

The helplessness and pain on Shen Yi's face became even stronger, and he said: "I never wanted to be an enemy of Brother Ou, but ...... Just like Brother Ou, I have things I have to do. ”

Ou Jingtian's eyes were bright, he looked at Shen Yi without blinking, and said, "Yes, this matter is indeed impossible, but it has to be done." He reached out with his right hand, choked, the Qibao knife was out of the sheath, smiled proudly, and said: "It is really a great blessing in life to be able to fight with Jiangnan heroes." ”

Shen Yi's smile was equally proud, and he said, "Please." His right hand clenched on the hilt of his sword, and he slowly drew his sword.

Xiaolong was already impatient, and the sword roared like a dragon's groan, spreading far away in the desert before it dispersed for a long time.

Ou Jingtian praised: "Good sword." ”

His wrist holding the knife flipped over, and the treasure knife was already across his chest, and then he shook his wrist, and the blade vibrate, and a tiger roared, straight into the clouds.

Shen Yi said: "Good knife." ”

Ou Jingtian said: "Please." ”

Everyone in the audience felt that it was the luckiest thing in life to be able to witness the duel between the two heroes of the north and the south, especially for a martial arts practitioner. Despite this, everyone watched this competition, but also had different scheming purposes, thinking more about whether the side they supported could win, so how much benefit they could get from it.

Once Shen Yi and Ou Jingtian made a move, all the eyes widened, and unconsciously, they had left trivial matters behind, only to feel that the sword light and sword shadow in front of them were gorgeous and colorful, and there were thousands of changes.

Shen Yijian is meticulous, like a drizzle, modest and gentle, seemingly light, but in fact it is hidden. And Ou Jingtian's Qibao knife technique is just like his person, stocky and steady, without a trace of fancy, it seems to be simple, but it is full of wisdom and ingenuity.

Although the weapons used are different, the two of them have truly mastered martial arts together, and all kinds of changes are used in their hearts, and they are no longer limited to superficial dead moves, but are improvised, attacking and defending freely. The one move of the Qibao Knife is oblique, which is obviously a knife technique, but it has the sword intent, and it is light and agile. And the Xiaolong in Shen Yi's hand is even more unlimited to sword moves, the sword moves at will, and it becomes a move......

Shen Yi and Ou Jingtian have different weapons, different martial arts routines, and different temperaments, but when the martial arts are in order, there is a corresponding place in the temperament, the tricks are the same broad and profound, and the gestures are the same justice and heroism.

Only a martial artist with extraordinary talent and unique intentions can practice martial arts to such a transcendent state. At the same time, martial artists need to be pure in heart in order to achieve such a state.

The onlookers were convinced, and they felt that these two people were so famous in the rivers and lakes that they were indeed well known.

The two have fought over a hundred moves in a blink of an eye, regardless of up and down, the more they fight, the more they cherish each other, the swords are merciful everywhere, and they stop at the point, but they give full play to their strengths, and make the best use of martial arts.

Liu Qingyun saw that his eyebrows fluttered, and he couldn't stop clapping his hands and shouting: "Very good, very good, you guys just go on like this, the third master is willing to accompany him for seven days and seven nights, and he will not get tired of it." ”

Hua Susu also saw that Shen Yi and Ou Jingtian did not mean to hurt each other, and she was very relieved, and her mood was also light, and when she heard Liu Qingyun's applause, she turned her face and glanced at him, and said: "Seven days and seven nights! ”

"What's this, one of them is tired, and I am happy to replace the third master and continue to fight. Liu Qingyun said with a smile: "It's a pity that there is no good wine at hand, and Liu wasted this epic competition." ”

Seeing that this duel that was supposed to be a duel gradually turned into a martial arts competition between friends, among the people present, there were happy and angry, but they all thought, if this competition can't tell the winner, then how should Wu San's stay be decided?

Even the two people who were fighting were feeling more and more embarrassed, although they were very intoxicated with each other's martial arts, but after all, they had deviated from the original intention of the competition, should this continue to fight? Or stop? If the fight does not come out with a result, then Wu San's matter is still a big problem in the hearts of the two, but if the fight continues, such a competition, the skills are comparable, and there is no hatred in the heart, I am afraid that it is really like Liu Qingyun hoped, fighting him for seven days and seven nights, and there will be no victory.

Shen Yi and Ou Jingtian hesitated in their hearts, but they did not careless at all with one move in their hands, and a hundred moves had passed, and they were at a stalemate for a while.

Gong Qianshan's eyes rolled, looking at the two people in the field, and then at the few people who were watching the battle wholeheartedly, and then looked at Wu San carefully, and then calculated urgently in his heart, his eyes gave off a bright light, and his mind was decided. He smiled fiercely, suddenly grabbed Li Xiaoli and took a few steps back, flipped his wrist, and held a sharp dagger in his palm, which was across Li Xiaoli's throat, and shouted loudly: "Shen Yi, hand over the list, otherwise I will kill this kid." ”
