Chapter 54: Platform Confrontation
The cold wind of the winter night whistled through the huge canyon, making an eerie and terrifying whimper, which made the three black-clothed people standing on the half-cliff platform and looking at the small temple with lights not far away feel even more strange and terrifying.
This is a common local mountain temple, built against the back, facing the platform, the turbulent Jialing River water flows forward from the Grand Canyon under the cliff, making the ordinary small temple full of solemn atmosphere in an instant.
"Jia Laosan, have you seen clearly?" One of the three was tall and slightly fat, about fifty years old, and the old man with a fierce face began to lose his breath, staring at the grass hut and asking his slightly thinner companion beside him.
"Big brother, can't even you trust me?" Jia Laosan, who was tall and thin, about the same age as fat and tall, and had a pair of eagle's beaks and big eyes, heard this, and was so anxious that he almost patted his chest and swore clearly: "I can see clearly, there are indeed only two of them in this temple, and even the lights inside were only lit after they entered." ”
"As soon as the boy surnamed Chai left, there were only two weak little girls left, how dare they blatantly light the lights?" Beside the two, a short man in his forties, lean and holding a machete, interjected: "Could it be that there is some worldly master hidden in this small temple?"
"The fart of the world. The thin and tall Jia Laosan said angrily: "You are full of people who are outside the world, and you want to live in seclusion in this broken temple where birds don't? Besides, how can there be so many people outside the world? Wu Liu, don't scare yourself, okay!"
Jia Laosan's tone was a little angry.
Let Murong Shanshan toss in the middle of the night with a large number of Fengyue disciples, if there is no result, he will not have to stay in Fengyue Gate anymore.
"Then why didn't the second, fourth, and fifth brothers come out after they went in?" the short Wu Liu asked unconvinced.
"What the hell do I know what's hidden in this temple?" Jia Laosan was so anxious that he even cursed the swear words.
"Jia Laosan, don't worry about it first. After all, Boss Ye is the head of the six, much calmer than the two righteous brothers, calmed down and thought for a while: "This temple is backed by a stone mountain, and the entire platform only has one exit, as long as those two girls go in, they will definitely not be able to run." The door master and Luo Lao will be here soon, let's block here, and see what these two girls can play with when the time comes?"
Jia Laosan and Wu Liu heard what Boss Ye said reasonably, and they also calmed down.
The three of them had been standing on this half-cliff platform for less than half a pillar of incense, and there were already human voices on the path leading to the mountain outside the platform behind them.
Murong Shanshan, who was eager for revenge, had a galloping figure that appeared in the light of the rapidly approaching torches.
Seeing that beautiful and charming face, the three of Ye Boss were all secretly relieved.
"Boss Ye, what's going on?" Seeing the obviously relieved expressions on the faces of the three of them, Murong Shanshan said in surprise: "Isn't there something wrong, right? Where are those two sluts now?"
Boss Ye hurriedly greeted him and said, "Those two girls are desperate and are now hiding in the temple and resisting." ”
As soon as Murong Shanshan heard this, he was about to pull the sword over, but Boss Ye hurriedly stopped: "Slow down!"
Zhong Luosheng, who was protecting Murong Shanshan's side, frowned and said, "What happened? When did Boss Ye become so spittering?" After speaking, he looked around, and asked again: "Where did Ma Lao Er, Zhao Si, and Zhao Wu go?"
Zhong Lao also knew Ma Lao's temper. Boss Ye's expression was as aggrieved as swallowing a fly, and he said with annoyance: "When the two little girls entered the small temple and lit the lights, I felt that things were a little strange, but Ma Lao Er thought that those two girls were playing tricks, so he waved his knife and rushed into the temple, but suddenly there was no movement with a strange scream!"
"Is there such a thing?" Zhong Luo's long horse face frowned slightly, and he muttered, "What situation can make the second fast knife horse lose resistance in an instant?"
"And that's not all. Wu Liu interjected on the side: "My fourth brother and fifth brother saw that the second brother was in danger, so they slammed into the window and wanted reinforcements, but they suddenly screamed a few times, and then fell under the window inexplicably, not knowing whether they were alive or dead!"
"I want to see what strange things are hidden in this temple?" Zhong Luosheng snorted coldly, his body steaming with a cold killing intent, and strode towards the temple gate.
"Zhong Lao be careful!" Although he knew that Zhong Luo's achievements were extremely high, but the matter was really weird, Boss Ye still couldn't help but remind him loudly: "The people in the house are hiding in a blind corner out of sight, and they don't extinguish the candles, I suspect that they have another master hiding in the house, so they will have no fear!"
Zhong Luosheng did not speak. When martial arts reached his realm, he could already see the subtleties, and he could judge the location of Song Yuanlan and Shangguan Rou just from the faint breathing sound of the people in the temple, and with a wave of the iron short stick in his left hand, he went straight into the temple wall on the left side of the door.
There was a "boom" sound, and the strong internal force attached to the iron short rod suddenly burst the temple wall like a hurricane, revealing Song Yuanlan's embarrassed backward figure in the flying dust.
Zhong Luosheng sneered, and was about to chase after him with his baton, but he suddenly stopped, raised his head and let out a soft exclamation.
A figure that seemed to be real from the cliff on the top of the temple rushed down, and instantly flew in, and the long sword turned into a meteor under the light of the torch light in the hands of the Fengyue disciples behind him, piercing Zhong Luosheng's top door.
Even if there is a big crisis, Zhong Luosheng has faced it calmly, and he can make him scream, which is enough to prove the power of this sword.
The two sticks are raised upwards and collide with the incoming sword in the form of a cross.
With a loud bang, a circle of sound waves of power spread out almost with ripples visible to the naked eye, shaking the ears of all the Fengyue disciples. Even the black shadow that sneaked up was shocked upward, but Zhong Luosheng did not retreat but advanced, bent his knees, and his body chased up like a sharp arrow.
Seeing this, Boss Ye and the others cheered loudly, pouring out for Zhong Luosheng's peerless skills, but they didn't know that Zhong Luosheng was suffering at this time, and he couldn't stop.
With Zhong Luosheng's skills, the person who could be recognized at a glance was the target of their pursuit this time, Chai Shaoning, who had successfully escaped from Tianyan Tower before.
Zhong Luosheng also understood in his heart that the reason why Chai Shaoning would attack with all his strength was actually a hasty move that he had to make to save Song Yuanlan in danger.
However, when Zhong Luosheng wanted to put it into practice, he was surprised to find that Chai Shaoning's sword seemed simple, but in fact it was extremely mysterious, and it really reached the point of no trace, when a sword was struck, the sword intent had sealed all the surrounding space, and Zhong Luosheng would immediately fall into the endless pursuit of the other party as long as he retreated.
Only then did Zhong Luosheng know that although Chai Shaoning's internal strength was inferior to his own, his understanding of swordsmanship had reached the point of being superb, and with his grandmaster-level vision, he could not find the flaws in it.
Zhong Luosheng was helpless, so he decided to use the internal force accumulated over the decades and much stronger than Chai Shaoning to defeat the opponent, so that Chai Shaoning's exquisite swordsmanship could not be brought into play, and he killed the opponent in one fell swoop.
How do you know that Zhong Luosheng still underestimated Chai Shaoning's strength, when the weapons intersected, Chai Shaoning actually used the toughness of the long sword to skillfully defuse Zhong Luosheng's unstoppable counterattack, and flew out with the help of his strength, leaving Zhong Luosheng alone to bear the consequences of that blow.
This is not all, because of the calm retreat, Chai Shaoning's long sword is swallowed, and the erratic tip of the sword is about to leave, always maintaining the posture of attacking at any time, like an invisible line holding Zhong Luosheng's spirit, so that Zhong Luosheng can't get out to deal with Song Yuanlan and Shangguan Rou who are in the temple.
Zhong Luosheng was both shocked and angry, so he stubbornly resisted the power of the attack that had not yet dissipated, and rose up to pursue, sealing all Chai Shaoning's sword moves to play his room, leaving only the other party to fight hard.
There was another loud bang, and Chai Shaoning's long sword collided with Zhong Luosheng's double stick for the second time.
This time, neither side has room for tricks.
In order to prevent the residual strength of the two from affecting Lin Zhimei on her back, Chai Shaoning lucked his right hand and blocked all of Zhong Luosheng's attacks, and his palm became bloody in the huge earthquake, the tiger's mouth was instantly cracked, and his trembling arm temporarily lost consciousness.
Zhong Luosheng's situation was not much better than Chai Shaoning's, he fell to the ground like a stone, kicked back a few steps, and looked at Chai Shaoning again after standing up, his eyes were full of horror.
Everyone in Fengyue Gate saw from Zhong Luosheng's eyes that something was wrong, especially Murong Shanshan, who was even more shocked.
In Tianyan Tower, although Chai Shaoning showed extraordinary light skills and intelligence, in terms of internal strength, he was slightly stronger than her Murong Shanshan, and he couldn't compete with an underworld giant like Zhong Luosheng at all. Even in the first confrontation with Zhong Luosheng before, Chai Shaoning still failed to take advantage of the sudden attack, but in the second round, he was already able to compete with Zhong Luosheng.
This kind of growth rate that is as strong as a blow is completely unreasonable, and this is still a burden as big as Chai Shaoning carrying Lin Zhimei on his back.
Could it be that Chai Shaoning has been hiding his strength all along?
Murong Shanshan couldn't help but take a step forward and put on a posture of fighting Chai Shaoning with Zhong Luosheng.
Song Yuanlan and Shanggong Rou, who were hidden in the temple, saw that Zhong Luosheng was repulsed, and they also took the opportunity to rush out and protect both sides of Chai Shaoning.
Jia Laosan's tracking was correct, the two of them were originally hiding in the village, but when Chai Shaoning left, the second daughter became more and more uneasy in her heart, worried that something would happen to Chai Shaoning, and that she would not be able to save Lin Zhimei, who was suffering. The two discussed it and simply went into the city to answer.
Not far from the village, the two of them found that a large number of people were approaching quickly, and they did not even hide the light of the torches held high.
The second daughter broke out in a cold sweat. The other party is menacing, not only is the speed extremely fast, but also the goal is very clear, obviously the hiding place of the two of them has been exposed, if it is not for the temporary intention, I am afraid that at this time it has already become a turtle in the urn!
Maybe even the people who were watching didn't expect Song Yuanlan and Shangguan Rou to leave suddenly, so that they were negligent for a while and were taken advantage of by the second daughter.
Looking at the small mountain village besieged by Tuantuan, Song Yuanlan and Shangguan Rou secretly called it lucky, and at the same time, they were even more worried about Chai Shaoning's safety.
