Chapter Seventy-Three: The Raid (I)
Zhang Wei hurriedly introduced to the guards beside him: "Brothers, this is Zhu Ye's newly accepted apprentice, called Ji Yuan, everyone will call him Young Master Ji in the future!"
The other three guards next to him immediately turned pale and bowed slightly to Ji Yuan, shouting, "I've seen the young master!"
Ji Yuan immediately replied: "Big brothers, you don't have to be polite, everyone is a family, just call me Xiao Yuan, everyone is too polite and restrained, but it makes me feel embarrassed!"
"Okay, Young Master Ji, come with me to see Zhu Ye! Zhu Ye sent a message in the afternoon that the young master was coming, so he asked me to wait here, but I didn't expect the young master to change, so I didn't recognize it for a while!" Zhang Wei said to Ji Yuan with some excitement.
Ji Yuan was stunned when he heard this, and asked suspiciously, "How did the master know that I was coming!"
Zhang Wei haha smiled: "Young Master, you just left the mining area this afternoon, Brother Wu Kouzhong came over and said that the young master seems to have an urgent matter to come to Jingzhou City to find Zhu Ye, so Zhu Ye asked me to wait for the young master here! I thought I would have to wait for two hours, but I didn't expect the young master to arrive so soon, it seems that the young master's riding skills are really not ordinary, I have time to compare riding skills with the young master!"
"Hehe, Uncle Zhang Wei, you can joke, my riding skills are not as good as yours! Boy, I am willing to bow down!" Ji Yuan was also amused by Zhang Wei's boldness. Quickly admit that his riding skills are not as good as Zhang Wei.
The two chatted while walking, and learned from Zhang Wei's mouth that the friends who helped Zhu Yuetian last time were now all in the Zhu family manor, helping Zhu Yuetian protect those Xuan essences, and now they are refining Xuan Jing in the back garden of the manor, and the person refining Xuan Jing is the most famous refining master in the rivers and lakes, Shi Bugui.
There is a martial arts practice square in Zhujiazhuang, the square is very wide, the radius is about two hundred zhang, usually mainly used for martial arts training, but at this time a copper furnace with a height of one zhang has been erected, the blazing flame is burning, all around are full of guards with weapons, one by one solemnly, Zhu Yuetian, Ling Lu, Zhang Yudan, Li Lanzhou and others are watching an old man with white hair skillfully manipulating the fire.
Suddenly, Zhu Yuetian's brows jumped, and a premonition of danger suddenly rose in his heart, he turned his head to look at a roof, but he didn't expect that as soon as he turned his head, he saw a black shadow shooting towards him like lightning and flint, and a dazzling sword light emitted a cold cold air that approached his heart, and the cold cold air made people feel like they had fallen into an ice cave, and a layer of cold air rose all over his body.
Ling Lu, Zhang Yudan, Li Lanzhou and others also had a premonition at the same time, as Zhu Yuetian looked in the direction, they also found the ghost-like black shadow at the same time, Zhang Yudan shouted: "Be careful!" The sword in his hand was thrown out of his hand, and he went straight to the black shadow, he saw the momentum and speed of the man in black, Zhang Yudan knew that he couldn't take a move at all, so he could only throw the weapon in his hand, hoping to block it for a while.
It's just that they all underestimated the strength of the black shadow, only to see that the speed of the black shadow did not change at all, and with a press of his left hand, a majestic invisible energy instantly wrapped the sword thrown by Zhang Yudan, and then with a light "bang", the sword instantly turned into a pile of tiny pieces of iron.
The faces of Zhu Yuetian and the others suddenly changed greatly, and in a hurry, the weapons in their hands attacked the black shadow at the same time, and in a dense sound of gold and iron, all the weapons attacking the black shadow became several pieces, and the black shadow did not stop, and the figure arrived in front of Zhu Yuetian, and the sword in his hand stabbed lightly, the sword light flashed, and it snorted straight into Zhu Yuetian's heart.
At this critical juncture, Zhu Yuetian's body twisted, avoided the vital point, and grabbed the deadly sword with both hands, and the sword stabbed into it from two inches away from the heart, at this critical moment, Li Lanzhou, who was behind, roared, and the weapon in his hand slashed at the black shadow, the black shadow flashed slightly, and pulled out the sword that pierced Zhu Yuetian's heart, Zhu Yuetian spurted out a mouthful of blood in a muffled snort, and then fell to the ground. ...,
When Ling Lu, Zhang Yudan and the others saw Zhu Yuetian's sword, their hearts were anxious, and they all rushed to the black shadow, the black shadow snorted coldly, waved his left hand, and slammed his palm on Zhang Yudan's chest, and the sword in his right hand swung back, and the white light flashed, and a sharp sword Qi made a screaming sound and stabbed directly at the people behind.
The few people behind the black shadow were the five brothers of the "Five Tigers of Mengshan", and when the five of them saw the sharp sword Qi that hit them, they hurriedly shouted: "Jian Qi! Be careful!"
"Click, click......" In a few slight sounds, I saw that the iron long stick of more than 800 catties in the hands of the five tigers was broken into two at once, and the sword Qi did not stop, it was fleeting, and passed through the chest of the third and fifth of the five tigers.
"Ah, third brother, fifth brother, third brother, fifth brother!" the other three tigers roared with grief and indignation when they saw that their brother had been tricked.
Ling Lu, Li Lanzhou, Zhao Yiming, "Yin and Yang Twin Swords" Lu Yue, Chu Tianhua and his wife, Han Jinshan, Han Yinshan, the two fathers and sons, "Desperate Palm" Yuan Batian, "Silver Moon Hook" Du Xinsoul and the three of the five tigers were all red-eyed, and the murderous aura in their hearts was suddenly born, and they all lost their lives, and they all sent out all their body skills, and the weapons in their hands slashed towards the black shadow.
But the black shadow was like a hungry wolf like a flock of sheep, one by one, and the people in the crowd continued to be slashed out by his palm, and the sword in his hand was even more brilliant, scattered in an instant, and all the heroes on the scene were shrouded in the range of sword light, and several people were stabbed in a hurry, covered in blood, and the sword edge penetrated deep into the bones, turning up a terrifying wound four or five inches long.
In the fierce battle, Ling Lu let out a loud shout, and slashed at the black shadow's back with both swords, the black shadow turned around suddenly, reached out with his left hand, grabbed Ling Lu's sword, and then twisted, click! The sword turned into several sections, and at the same time, the sword in the black shadow's hand was aimed at Ling Lu's head and slashed with a sword.
Zhu Yuetian, who had been hit by the black shadow's sword, woke up at this time, watching the black shadow's sword slash towards Ling Lu, a bloody arrow spurted out of his mouth, his face changed greatly, and he shouted angrily: "Brother Ling!"
......
Ji Yuan and Zhang Wei, who were walking in the direction of the square for refining the Xuan Essence, suddenly stopped, and both of them heard the sad roars of three of the five tigers, Zhang Wei was stunned for a moment, and then reacted immediately: "It's not good, there are assassins!" The words fell, and their bodies quickly rushed straight in the direction of the roar.
But Ji Yuan chuckled in his heart: "It's finally here! I didn't expect it to arrive at the same time!"
He hurriedly took out a set of night clothes that he had hidden before from the package and put them on quickly, and his figure disappeared in place in a flash, Zhang Wei, who was running, only felt a black shadow flickering beside him, as if someone had flashed by, and when he looked closely, he found nothing.
In a moment, Ji Yuan arrived at his destination, and as soon as he arrived at the gate of the square, he saw that the black shadow slashed at Ling Lu's head with a sword, and he had no time to rescue, at this time he was still more than thirty zhang away from Ling Lu.
In a hurry, the ring in his hand was thrown away, a yellow light flashed, and after two or three breaths, he heard a strange rumbling sound and went straight to the black shadow, and the black shadow that was slashing at Ling Lu with a sword changed his complexion, and it was too late to kill Ling Lu, his body turned sharply, and the sword in his hand slashed away from the ring with a sword, a dazzling white light flashed, and a terrible sword Qi sent out from the tip of the sword and went straight to the ring.
"Boom!"
There was a loud bang, like a thunderclap on a sunny day! The fierce wind lifted the people around the black shadow into a fight, and a few people were so shocked by this energy that their mouths and noses were bleeding, and their ears were still buzzing.
The ring of the epoch smashed the sharp sword qi to pieces, like a meteor, and dissipated into nothingness, but the ring castrated unchanged, and continued to let out a rumbling and terrifying sound to smash into the black shadow. ...,
The black shadow was suddenly shocked in his heart, his face changed greatly, the light in his eyes flashed, his body flickered, and he appeared on the roof ten zhang away, after the era smashed the ring out, his body flashed, and he appeared next to the ring, his hand probed, grabbed the ring, and then his figure flashed again, and it appeared on another roof about ten zhang away from the black shadow, and the ring in his hand was sent forward, and a strong breath made a buzzing sound, shaking the surrounding air with a muffled sound.
The black shadow's face showed a solemn expression, and the sword in his hand stabbed straight forward, and the entire sword body was trembling, and it also made a buzzing sound, which showed that the strength of this sword was not weak.
The qi emitted by the ring sword intersected, and there was no sound, but the ripples around the two of them were visible to the naked eye, and the roof under the feet of the two of them was slowly sinking to the ground.
In a moment, the entire house fell within twenty zhang, and it was as flat as the ground, and the eyes of the heroes around them widened one by one, but they didn't expect the skills of the two people who fought to be so deep and so amazing.
Then the ground began to sink, and gradually a large pit of more than 20 zhang square circle slowly formed, and the figures of the two people also declined, until they could not see the figures of the two people, although the heroes on the scene could not see the plot of the two masters fighting in the big pit, but just by the gusts of air rushing out of the pit, you can guess that the competition between the two is extremely fierce.
Soon, the furious qi emanating from the pit became stronger and stronger, and Zuihou actually formed a huge pillar of wind that rose into the sky, and the pillar of wind spun rapidly around the edge of the pit, and at the same time emitted bursts of piercing whistling sounds, and where the pillar of wind passed, all buildings collapsed in an instant with a rumbling sound.
Suddenly, a fine light burst out of the pit, and then, the two figures rushed into the sky like lightning, hitting each other nine palms in mid-air, and each palm struck, and a bang sounded in the air, like thunder.
After nine palms, the two fell to the ground lightly, and both sides stared at each other like fighting cocks.
