Sword of Coming

Chapter 51 Confrontation

After returning to Fulu Town, he had a brief discussion with Song Changjing, the king of the Great Li clan. The old ape of Zhengyang Mountain did not stay in Li's house for too long. He rushed out of the town and stopped for a while at the place where the straw-shoe boy entered the mountain. , the old man still returned to the place where he punched before, and carefully observed the depth of the young man's footprints on the mud.

In addition, in the old ape's field of vision, there are also a series of faint footprints of adults. The old ape guessed that they were probably left by the young swordsman from Fenglei Garden. When he punched the boy from Mud Bottle Lane, the man clearly wanted to take advantage of the situation. , the sword energy overflowed for a moment. Although it was fleeting and deeply hidden, the old ape had experienced hundreds of battles, and he had practiced for a thousand years in Zhengyang Mountain where "sword energy breaks through the treasure bottle" , I am too familiar with sword energy and sword intention.

This Zhengyang Mountain guardian ape has lived for too long, so he has seen a lot. He has seen swordsmen who are good at raising high-quality flying swords. Among them, he has dozens of exquisite and pocket-sized flying swords, all of which are as small as fine ox hair. I have also seen a natal flying sword as big as a mountain peak, which cut down with one strike and cut off rivers.

After the old ape thought carefully, he continued to move forward. After entering the mountain, there were first overgrown weeds, and then a bamboo forest. The ground was mostly covered with dead leaves accumulated from last autumn and winter. However, because it was closest to the town, the bamboo forest did not appear deserted and messy. Following the imperceptible footprints, the old ape found that he was about to walk out of the bamboo forest.

The old ape did not walk out of the bamboo forest directly, but looked around. He did not see the boy's footprints on the ground. He moved his gaze upwards and saw that there were no obvious marks on the green bamboos around him. However, the old ape still did not chase straight up the mountain, but stood up from the ground. , stepped on the top of a thick green bamboo pole, slightly increased the force, tilted his body towards the mountain, and the bamboo bent accordingly. When it was about to break, the old man suddenly lost his breath, and his burly body was like a light feather, without any weight. The green bamboo that was holding the burden suddenly rebounded and returned to straightness. The old man stood on the top of the repairing green bamboo like an immortal riding the wind. His body swayed slightly with the bamboo. After looking around, he lowered his head and looked down at the surroundings. Finally, the old ape noticed the clues and tugged at the corner of his mouth. Looking all the way to the left, and listening carefully, I vaguely heard the sound of flowing water in the stream.

The old ape sneered: "As expected, he is as cunning as ever."

The old ape trampled on the green bamboos and ran towards the stream on the left. He broke countless bamboos along the way. After arriving at the stream, he wondered whether the straw-shoe boy should follow the stream to the deep mountains and old forests, or flee downstream. , Lao Yuan was a little unsure for a while. The old ape squatted by the stream, his brows furrowed, and he was a little angry. If it were in the outside world, as long as there was a mountain with a little spiritual energy, the old ape could just grab it and force the earth god who had lost his support to come out. If you ask, you will know where the young man is.

This can also be regarded as one of the natal magical powers of the mountain-moving ape. Otherwise, other monks, no matter how powerful your magic skills are and how famous you are, will never be able to easily point fingers at the gods of the land and water. The roads are different, just like the officialdom of the secular dynasty, the Ministry of War It is also difficult for a minister to order around a small household minister and ask him to do this and that. The most important thing is that the minister of war and the minister are not above the temples of a country.

The old ape listened to the sound of water and fell into deep thought.

According to common sense, the young man probably had his skills and physical strength honed by going up mountains and entering water since he was a child. He may have also learned the basic techniques of breathing and exhalation. This is why he has a physique that is different from ordinary people. His body is light, his bones are strong, and his qi and blood are strong. , so that you can play the game of cat and mouse with the old ape on the roof of the alley. In this case, it is reasonable and reasonable to hide in the depths of the dense forest where you are familiar with the roads. If you are a pure young man, he just wanted revenge with his passion. After experiencing serious and serious injuries, he gradually cooled down and naturally started to feel afraid, so he ran to the blacksmith shop in the south to seek protection from Master Ruan, which was reasonable.

The former is just time-consuming, while the latter consumes not only energy and energy, but also the incense and passion of Zhengyang Mountain.

The old ape followed his heart and blurted out: "This young man must die."

After saying this, the old ape no longer had any doubts and chose to follow him downstream of the stream.

In the south of the town, there is a winding yellow mud road, with rice fields and crop fields of the people in the town on both sides. Halfway along the road, there is a dilapidated small temple with white walls and black tiles. It is said to be a temple, but in fact it is just a place for people to rest. In places like this, especially during busy farming seasons, hot summer days or heavy rains, it makes a huge difference whether there is a place to shelter from the rain.

At this time, Chen Pingan and Ning Yao were discussing and taking a break.

Ning Yao was born with a clear sword and could see at night. He easily discovered that the dilapidated walls were covered with children's charcoal graffiti, most of which were names of people. Most of the lower parts were mottled, or they had been daubed, tampered with, or overlapping. Stacked, but in a higher place, there are some clearly visible names, Song Jixin, Zhigui, Zhao Yao, Xie Shi, Cao Xi... a long list, it is estimated that they were riding on the neck, or even standing on it. Ning Yao even saw the names of Liu Xianyang, Chen Ping'an, and Gu Can, which were written on the shoulders of his friends. They were gathered in the highest place in the upper left corner, making them look unsociable.

Ning Yao looked away and asked: "Anyway, the first step is done. It has forced the old ape to breathe for the first time. Next, do you really want to go to the town to retrieve the wooden bow? Is it too risky? If the old ape is very cautious and doesn’t go up the mountain to trouble you, wouldn’t you be like a sheep in a tiger’s mouth?”

The boy in straw sandals has been silently exhaling and exhaling. There is no fixed number of the length of the breath. Everything depends on the feeling, pursuing the "most comfortable" state. After hearing the sound, his eyes were firm and he said: "There is no way, the wooden bow must be taken back, otherwise we All my previous efforts were in vain! Moreover, I shot an arrow at the old ape over there in Mud Bottle Alley. It is indeed like Miss Ning said, even at such a close distance, as long as it did not hit the old ape's eyeball, the damage would be The damage can be ignored."

Ning Yao was a little annoyed, "I told you earlier, your little tricks don't work! You didn't believe it before, and you didn't listen to my advice, okay, I'll let you go, but now that you believe it, you should follow my method, right?" "

In fact, as for how to deal with the old ape in Zhengyang Mountain, the boys and girls who were discussing the matter at the corridor bridge initially decided to do their own thing. Chen Pingan just asked the girl to wait until he returned to the town to find the three people, but the boy behind him suddenly changed his mind. , catching up with Ning Yao before he walked to the north end of the covered bridge and went down the steps.

After that, the two had huge differences. The girl who was wearing a sword was very firm at first. You, Chen Ping'an, are not a practitioner. You don't even know how to use fists. You can just watch the show on the side. At most, you can help wave the flag and shout, so that She came to kill the old ape to avenge Liu Xianyang and vent her hatred. But when Chen Ping'an asked her how to kill the old ape, Ning Yao refused to tell her. He only said that she had the ability to win the battle. She could travel all over the world, go up and down mountains, and walk alone. How could she do it without a little bit of the killer trick passed down from her family?

Chen Pingan did not agree.

Only then did Chen Pingan look for people three times.

Chen Ping'an stood up, twisted his waist, and was almost stagnant. He stood up and said, "I'm almost done with my rest."

Ning Yao was surprised: "The things in Yang's shop are so useful?"

Chen Pingan's eyes dimmed for a moment, but he quickly nodded and said with a smile: "It's very useful."

Ning Yao asked: "Will the old ape see through your escape route directly?"

Chen Pingan thought for a while and replied cautiously: "Maybe."

Ning Yao used the scabbard to draw two circles and a straight line on the ground, and asked: "This is the route between the small temple and Li's house on Fulu Street. Where is your wooden bow hidden?"

Chen Pingan squatted down and drew a circle, "Close to the east, almost here, not too far from Mud Bottle Alley."

Ning Yao nodded and said: "Okay, even if the old ape comes directly to the small temple, I will delay his steps and buy you enough time."

Chen Pingan drew a small circle in the middle of the line again with his finger, "If this is the worst case scenario, Miss Ning, can you seduce him here? This is where I first entered the mountain, so I can take When we get to Mu Gong, rush over, it won't take long."

The girl in a dark green robe leaned on the ground with a knife and said proudly: "Maybe I will carry the old ape's head to your side."

Chen Pingan shook his head and said: "Don't be brave, be careful!"

Ning Yao wanted to hit that head hard with the scabbard. Who was trying to be brave?

She glared and said, "Hey! The person standing in front of you is me, Ning Yao, the future number one swordsman in the world, okay?!"

The young man stood up, looked down at the two cloth bags at his waist, and tightened them again just in case, then raised his head and smiled: "I know, I know, so, don't die in a small place like this. Otherwise, thank you. In the future, when you become such a big shot, as a friend, I will be able to take advantage of you."

Ning Yao said with emotion: "Chen Pingan, you are so indecisive as a mother-in-law. I advise you not to marry a wife in the future, and just find a random woman to marry."

The young man chuckled and didn't refute. Just as he was about to leave the temple, Ning Yao said: "I'll send you to the creek first, and then I'll walk northwest for a while to prevent the old ape from worrying about the little girl's safety. Not long after we entered the bamboo forest, we found no trace of you, so we decisively gave up the pursuit and turned around to return to the town."

Chen Pingan thought for a while and did not refuse.

The boy and girl ran towards the stream together, and the girl breathed out invisibly like a big river. The water was deep and silent, and the undercurrent was surging. The breath of a young man is like the flowing water of a stream, which flows slowly and slowly.

The weather is different.

Ning Yao suddenly couldn't help but asked: "The wooden bow arrow is coated with the herbal medicine you mentioned. Is it really useful?"

The young man replied: "Anyway, it is useful for wild boars weighing more than 200 kilograms, and it should also be useful for that old ape."

Ning Yao stopped talking.

The two of them approached the creek, which was where the straw-shoe boy had landed. Almost at the same time, the boy and girl burst out with strength and kicked the ground with their feet. They stood up high and jumped to the other side.

After the girl landed, she held the scabbard and slowed down. The boy sprinted, jumped, crossed the river, and ran, all in one go. He passed the girl in an instant. Just as Chen Pingan was about to turn around, the girl said, "You go first." Small town, don’t worry about me.”

The young man continued to move forward, turning his head as he ran and reminding: "I will take a slight detour and choose a secluded alley to enter the town. It may be a little late."

Ning Yao nodded, and after Chen Pingan's figure disappeared, he no longer held the hilt of the sword and began to walk slowly to the west.

Not long after, the girl stopped and squinted her eyes to look upstream at the distance of the stream.

A burly figure suddenly shot from the boulder of the stream to the north bank, landing more than twenty steps in front of the girl, looking domineering.

The old ape was a little confused. There was no hidden aura of young people around him. He glanced at the white sheath sword on the girl's waist intentionally or unintentionally, and said with a smile: "Little girl, you were the one who went to Fulu Street to cause trouble earlier, right?"

The girl held the hilt of the sword with both hands and remained silent.

The old ape asked curiously: "Little girl, on the way to the town, although you kept hiding your head and tail, I know that your origin is not simple. You are definitely not the two losers from Qingfeng City and Old Dragon City. It's just that I am very It’s strange, what grudges are there between you and me, why is this necessary? Or maybe your family’s disciples have a feud with Zhengyang Mountain?”

Ning Yao said nothing, the sword on his waist was unsheathed at the same time, and his figure disappeared in a flash.

The narrow knife arrived first and struck down the Zhengyang Mountain Guardian Patriarch on the head. The old ape casually raised his hand and used his arm to deflect the edge of the knife.

The girl took advantage of the situation and spun around, sweeping her sword horizontally towards the old ape's neck.

The old ape also violently smashed the sword's edge with his arm.

The girl's first two moves failed to succeed, so she did not get close to the old ape. She put some distance away from the old ape and walked slowly.

After appraising the sharpness of the two weapons with his unparalleled physical body, the old ape ignored the blood grooves cut on the outside of his arms and said with a smile: "The weapons are really good, and I dare to carry two of them with me. I can see that they are on the mountain." You are a disciple of a thousand-year-old family, or else you are the direct descendant of one of the top tycoons in the mountain, I almost thought you were another Fengleiyuan sword cultivator hiding in the dark."

The old ape moved with the girl's seemingly careless steps, followed her figure and slightly shifted his gaze, and said in a deep voice: "Little girl, I know that you will not give up even if you are frustrated next, so I will give you one last chance. Let you report your life experience to the guru, and if you are killed by me again after this, Zhengyang Mountain will not admit your mistake for this, let alone where you come from and who you study under."

Ning Yao simply turned a deaf ear to this and was always looking for the old ape's real weakness.

After all, she is not the great Li clan king who has reached the threshold of the tenth realm and can shoulder a mountain-moving ape head-on.

The old ape, who thought he had given in too much, sneered and said: "If you don't know how to appreciate it, then let you go."
