Chapter 40: An Unexpected Encounter
(I'm very sorry, I was going to prepare three shifts, but in order to integrate the level of combat power, I temporarily drew a relatively large comparison table of divine skill levels, and it took more than two hours, so there are only two shifts today.) Thank you all for your support. )
Zhao Fan agreed to the instructions of the Mudao people very simply, and then, without waiting for the Mudao people to open their mouths to keep food, they immediately confessed their guilt and turned around and left Taiyi Temple.
Walking out of the towering gate, Zhao Fan breathed a sigh of relief, only to feel that this trip to Taiyi Temple was quite familiar.
Thinking back to more than ten years ago, when Zhao Fan was still a university student in his previous life, he took on this kind of task countless times. For example, "Hogg Must Die", or "The End of the Lich King", etc.
It's just that at that time, he was manipulating the characters in the game, but at this moment, he is in the real world. Dreaming back to the past, the familiar scene couldn't help but evoke a little homesickness, but the two lives add up to almost forty years old, Zhao Fan has already learned to regulate his mood, and it didn't take long for him to return to normal, focusing his attention on the goal this time.
Ximen Muye, Meng Shentong, Zhang Zhaozhong.
As the three major enemies that must be eliminated in the north of Kanto this time, no matter which one they are, in Zhao Fan's opinion, they are extremely difficult to deal with.
The first is Ximen Makino. According to Li Shengnan, as the self-proclaimed leader of the Kanto Martial Arts Alliance, this person's martial arts are so high that he has reached the realm of a great grandmaster, compared to Ning Daoqi and Bi Xuan's generations in the past, he is only slightly inferior by half a point, and his poisonous skills are even more powerful.
Then there is Meng Shentong. As the biggest enemy of the Li family in the "original work", Meng Shentong was already a master of the grandmaster realm more than ten years ago, and at this time, he has practiced the "Shura Yin Sha Gong" for more than ten years, and his skills are bound to go further, I am afraid that he is not much better than Ximen Muye.
Zhao Fan and Li Shengnan, two people who have not yet entered the realm of grandmasters, actually want to plot to kill the two great grandmasters, even if it is the world of martial arts prosperity at this time, the great grandmaster is far less valuable than ordinary years, but the gap in combat power between the two sides has not been reduced in the slightest, and it is obviously far more than courage to complete such a record, but also wisdom, planning, and even a little luck.
In addition to these two enemies who are sure to kill Li Shengnan, Zhao Fan received the task, and Zhang Zhaozhong, who was to be killed by Wudang Force, was obviously not a good person.
According to the situation introduced by Mu Daoren, this Zhang Zhaozhong not only refined the Rouyun swordsmanship as in the "original work", but also made an exception to teach the "Fire Cloud Palm" in the Zixiao Palace, becoming a veritable "Fire Hand Judge".
When he betrayed Wudang, this person deliberately stole a copy of the secret book of "Wudang Jiuyang Gong" from Zixiao Palace as a rank for advancement. At this time, it has been several years since he stole the scriptures, and with his skills when he betrayed the door, he should have already practiced the magic skills in the secret book. In other words, this person at least has the skill equivalent to the "Seven Suns" realm, plus the double tricks of the sword and sword, and his combat power is by no means below that of ordinary grandmasters.
However, Zhao Fan has considerable confidence in the head-on attack on Zhang Zhaozhong. With the cultivation of the "Fifth Heaven" of the Wedding Dress Divine Skill at this moment, compared with the "Seven Yangs" realm of the Jiuyang Divine Skill, it should basically be between the two of them, but compared with Zhang Zhaozhong, Zhao Fan's body has learned too much, and the hole cards that can be used are too much. With such a huge advantage, it stands to reason that there should be a big chance of winning.
However, this is only the best that can be achieved in the case of a one-on-one fair duel. But the actual situation is that as an important military attache of the Qing court, this Zhang Zhaozhong is surrounded by an endless stream of internal masters, although most of these guys are some insignificant cannon fodder, but the number is enough to have a decisive impact on the victory or defeat between the masters.
Therefore, when they go to Kanto, what Zhao Fan and the two will face is bound to be one vicious battle after another, and there is no possibility of escaping at all. In this way, how to improve the strength as much as possible during the time of the rush has become the top priority of this trip to Kanto.
- As for how to do it, Zhao Fan also has a belly case, and the key is to optimize and deduce his set of "blood nerves" as much as possible.
......
Early the next morning, it was just dawning.
Without waiting for the city gate to open, Zhao Fan and Li Shengnan took up light skills, climbed out of the city from the wall, and traveled all the way north along Chengbei Avenue.
For the convenience of the journey, both men traveled as light as possible. In addition to the necessary clothes, all the gold, silver and jewelry were exchanged for easy-to-carry silver tickets with the help of Angry Jiao's gang Pang Guozhi.
As for Bodhidharma's scriptures, after being copied by the two overnight, they carefully checked it several times to confirm that there were no mezzanines, secret notes, developing handwriting and the like, so they found a brocade box and sealed it, buried it in a secret place, and prepared to wait until they returned from Kanto to get it out.
Because they didn't carry any burdens, the two of them ran extremely fast, and in one night, they could catch up with the distance of more than 200 miles, which was almost comparable to ordinary military intelligence express. If you follow this running method, the distance from Jingzhou Mansion to Shengjing City is more than 4,000 miles, and if you don't take 20 days at this speed, you can reach it smoothly.
After running like this for two days, the two had already left the Song realm and entered the territory of Runing Mansion in Henan Province under the rule of Wu Zhou. Not far to the north, is the famous Zhongyue Song Mountain. Shaolin Temple and Songshan faction are located on this mountain, so the entire Henan martial arts is the only two factions to look forward. For example, in a thoroughfare like Runing Mansion, the martial arts halls, dart bureaus, and gangs in the city are all inextricably linked with these two factions, and there are even many disciples of the two factions who run it themselves.
The inn where Zhao Fan and Li Shengnan stayed was also an industry under the name of the Songshan faction. As the shopkeeper, the disciple of Songshan who was stationed here should be the third generation of the sect, and his cultivation is not weak in the rivers and lakes, barely up to the level of a second-rate master.
In a safe area under the noses of the Songshan faction such as Runing Mansion, such a master is completely enough to calm the scene. But with this person's insight and eyesight, if you want to see the extraordinaryness of Zhao Fan and the others, it is completely impossible.
In this regard, Zhao Fan speculated slightly, perhaps the Songshan faction's move was to avoid any contradictions with those who wanted to pass by in a low-key manner. After all, for Zuo Lengchan, who was bent on revitalizing Songshan, before completing his grand cause of unifying the five mountains, any other troubles were something he wanted to avoid.
However, no matter what the reason is, Zhao Fan and the others still deeply agree with Zuo Lengchan's arrangement.
After all, the two of them went north this time to stab people in the back, so they naturally wanted to keep a low profile, and it was best not to be recognized by anyone.
However, they did not recognize them, but they recognized others.
After checking outside the store and making sure that there was no problem, the two looked at each other, and then walked into the store one after the other like ordinary tourists. As soon as they walked through the door, several Taoist priests in the corner of the hall immediately attracted their attention.
First, under the nose of this Shaolin Temple, there are really not many Taoist priests, and it is inevitable that people will be surprised at first sight.
Second, in Zhao Fan's "Martial Eyes", the martial arts of those Taoist priests seem to be quite not weak. Among them, the shortest person in the crowd, the strongest martial arts, and the internal strength of the body, compared to Zhao Fan, the two are only strong but not weak, and they are actually martial arts masters at the grandmaster level!
Seeing this, if he didn't know who this person was, Zhao Fan might as well simply kill himself.
Taoist priest, dwarf, master. Ask the entire rivers and lakes, and there is only one that can meet these three conditions at the same time.
Qingcheng faction pine wind view master - Yu Canghai!
A few days ago, this person had visited Shihe Daoist in Jingzhou to prepare for Ling Hui's decision. However, at this moment, this guy actually appeared in the Henan realm with a group of disciples. What are these guys' plans?
Zhao Fan pretended to retract his gaze unintentionally, and thought secretly in his heart.
- It seems that this time, I'm afraid it won't work without figuring it out.
