The peaks are undulating, the mountain wind is cold, and the dilapidated mountain temple is leaking wind from all directions, causing the fire to sway and the shadows to twist and stretch, like an evil ghost with teeth and claws. 23us
Lu Zhongqi ate the freshly baked white flour buns and was fascinated by the dancing flames. After changing the route, several people slept in the open air, went around the city and through the villages, avoiding most of the intercepting experts, and finally arrived at the capital.
However, he did not feel at ease. The closer he got to the capital, the more uneasy he became, as if the calmness of the previous half month was preparing for the stormy waves in the next one or two days.
He had a vague hunch that even Du Wuchang was dispatched. The traitors in the court would never stop there. There must be stronger masters coming, which made him very worried.
Lu Guan sat in front of the fire, holding on to the scroll, eating steamed buns, and reading the military manual. He was calm and composed, not at all in danger, and the enemy might attack at any time. Taoist Hu couldn't help but secretly praise him. Lu Guan was indeed A good general who keeps his eyes open even when the elk are on the left
Thinking of this, Taoist Hu turned his head slightly and looked at Meng Qi, who had his sword across his knees with his eyes half open and half closed. He looked at Ruan Yushu, who was calm and indifferent, playing the piano gently, and sighed in his heart, both little guys are He is calmer than himself. It is true that the older Jianghu gets, the more timid he becomes.
It will be fine after tonight. When we get outside the capital, we can raise the flag so that the traitors will not dare to attack in broad daylight. After all, Marshal Lu was recruited into the capital by His Majesty's personal decree, and there are many people around the capital. As long as someone leaks out, The news must have caused the whole family to be executed. Taoist Hu comforted himself, took off the long sword from his back, pulled it out with a clang, and stroked it gently.
This Tiger Roaring Sword has been with me for almost thirty years, and I have drank the blood of countless evil people. I hope it can help me tide over the difficulties this time. His own death is not important. If Commander Lu is robbed, it will be a disaster for all the people in the world.
Suddenly, his right hand, which was groping for the blade of the sword, stopped. He looked towards the door of the ruined temple with gleaming eyes.
I saw a man standing there, a tall man, a man holding a broad sword in his hand. I don't know when, he was already standing there, quietly looking at the people in the temple.
Sword General Hu Taoist stood up abruptly, pointed his tiger roaring sword at an angle, his voice was gloomy, and his face was solemn.
Hearing this name, Lu Zhongqi jumped up in fright. He turned out to be a sword general. He was a well-known swordsman across all nine states, only slightly inferior to the evil king and ghost king who were at the pinnacle of the human world.
He has deep internal skills, great sword skills, and is fierce and fierce, just like a general charging into battle, so he is nicknamed the Sword General. His strength in frontal combat exceeds that of Du Wuchang by an unknown amount. He once defeated nine first-class masters alone. Killing them all with the sword, both in terms of reputation and performance, they are far better than the most powerful Taoist Hu on his side.
Lu Zhongqi looked at the other three people in fear. Lu Guan put down his military book and stood up slowly, as if he planned to join forces with the Taoist Hu to fight against the powerful enemy. There was no sign of panic on his face, but Ruan Yushu was still playing the piano, and the sound was faint. The artistic conception is high, but what's the use
Xiao Meng Duan, a swordsman who loves to practice swordsmanship, is sitting upright with a calm expression on his face. It seems that the sword generals in front of him are four people, not masters.
He was so scared, Lu Zhongqi couldn't help but think, after all, the sword general was tall and imposing. Even if he stood there quietly, he stood like a mountain, making his heart beat like a drum and his legs feel weak.
I have long heard that masters who have exceeded the normal level are good at fighting Qi and soul, and I thought it was nonsense. Today, when I faced the sword general, I realized that the rumors were true. Even if he didn't take action and just stood by the door, he would be able to do it. His fighting spirit was weakened, he was panicked, and he could not perform six stops out of ten stops.
The sword general stepped in step by step. Every step he took seemed to make the ruined temple tremble. After seven steps, the hand holding the sword began to tremble a little. The man in front of him seemed to be getting taller and taller, just like the man in myths and legends. giant
Master Hu, this matter has nothing to do with you. If you leave, I will not stop you. General Jian's voice was rich.
Hu Taoist took a deep breath: Commander Lu has the hope of the world, and is responsible for the disaster of the Xilu. As the saying goes, it is better to be a peace dog than to be a man in troubled times. I am poor and incompetent. I am willing to sacrifice one life to exchange for the safety of the people of the world. Er and other perverse actions , there will be retribution sooner or later
He secretly gestured to Lu Guan to take advantage of his opportunity to hold General Jian back and escape.
Lu Guan remained motionless: Lu never considered his own life to be higher than that of others. Although his command was strict, he always took the lead. Only in this way could the Tieshan Army be able to fight without retreating.
When he spoke, he was full of momentum, as if he was leading an army of hundreds of thousands of people. The sword general even changed his expression slightly.
Affected by this, Lu Zhongqi suddenly lost all fear in his heart and said generously: The battle will not retreat until the people are dead. The Iron Mountain is still there, and the barbarians will be destroyed.
The sword general pulled out his long sword with a clang. The sword was as wide as a door panel.
I have been greatly favored and have to come to kill you. Please accept my worship. The sword general saluted solemnly, and as he spoke, he seemed to kill Taoist Lu Guanhu like a chicken or a dog, effortlessly, making Lu Zhongqi's heart tremble again.
His expression was calm, implying compassion, and he stretched out his broad sword and was about to attack.
At this moment, Meng Qi, who had been caressing his sword indifferently, suddenly stood up. With a clang, the sword was unsheathed and a cold light shone in all directions.
He looked at General Jian and said expressionlessly:
If you can make me return my sword to defend one move, I will lose.
What kind of arrogance is this? Not only General Sword, but also Hu Taoist Lu Zhongqi on Meng Qi's side had similar feelings.
No matter how outstanding your swordsmanship is, the Sword General has been famous for many years, has outstanding achievements, and is a master in the world. How could you not even be able to make you return to the sword to defend yourself? Even if the Demon Queen's Imperial Master is here, he would not dare to say such a big thing.
Young people don’t know how high the sky is and how high it is
Just when the sword general was a little impatient, Meng Qi drew his sword. He took a step forward, as if stepping on his heart, and the long sword slashed down crookedly, like a child's graffiti.
Hu Taoist and Lu Zhongqi were surprised and confused. They couldn't believe how the arrogant Xiao Meng could use a sword full of flaws. It was like he had never practiced swordsmanship before, while Ruan Yushu was astonished. I was thinking, as if I understood something.
The sword in General Sword's eyes is hard to describe. Although there are many flaws, they are constantly changing, making it difficult to grasp.
The momentum he had created before was perfectly destroyed by Meng Qi. He was at a disadvantage due to the battle of energy and energy. He had no choice but to sweep across with a broad sword, as if using an iron rod, keeping Meng Qi away from the defensive circle. Otherwise, try to protect yourself first.
Meng Qi's long sword suddenly drooped like a fallen leaf and touched the tip of the broad sword.
The sword general felt as if his sword was hanging from a thousand pounds, and it suddenly sank with a heavy weight on his wrist.
With this power, Meng Qi's long sword rebounded upwards and stabbed diagonally at General Sword's throat.
General Sword had no choice but to take a step back.
When he took a step forward, Meng Qi also took a step forward, following him like a shadow.
The sword general roared, and he used some secret technique. He raised his broad sword from bottom to top, as if he was going to split Meng Qi in half.
His swordsmanship is different from ordinary ones, it is extremely strong and powerful
Meng Qi suddenly jumped up, and the tip of his sword trembled from straight to upward.
With the distance between the two of them, there was still a little gap between the tip of the sword and the throat, making it difficult to stab, but when it was tilted up, it came into close contact with the chin.
With a pop, the sharp Bingque Sword penetrated his head from the chin without any hindrance, causing his head to rise and causing his broadsword to lose its accuracy.
Meng Qi fell to the side, his sword hanging low, blood gathering on the tip of the sword and dripping slowly.
With a thud, the Sword General's burly figure fell to the ground on his back, stirring up a cloud of dust.
you lose. Meng Qi said a word indifferently, walked back to the fire and sat down.
General Jian's eyes were wide open, with fear and shock remaining, but he was no longer breathing and could not answer Meng Qi.
He actually didn't ask Xiao Meng to defend with his sword, and he was killed on the spot after only four moves.
Taoist Lu Guanhu and Lu Zhongqi looked at Meng Qi, who had a dull expression, as if he had just baked a steamed bun, and then looked at the sword general who was still staring at death, feeling fear for his swordsmanship.
Looking back on the battle just now, they found that none of Meng Qi's moves were subtle. On the contrary, they were full of flaws and ordinary. However, his grasp of timing and angles was superb, as if he knew the sword general well.
There is such swordsmanship and such swordsmanship in the world.
Taoist Hu originally thought that he had a better understanding of Xiao Meng's strength, but now it seems that his swordsmanship is more terrifying than he imagined, and he may be close to the level of the Ghost King Ruyi Monk.
How old is he? Could it be that he is a natural swordsman
With Xiao Meng here, it seemed that this trip to Beijing was safe. Lu Zhongqi breathed a sigh of relief, nodded gratefully to Meng Qi, ran to General Jian, leaned over and searched for the body.
General Jian is here to kill people, and he has a very open style, so he only has a bag of dry food, a bag of silver, and a letter with him.
Lu Zhongqi picked up General Jian's broad sword and placed it next to Meng Qi. It was his trophy.
Meng Qi remained calm and noncommittal, but felt secretly happy in his heart.
Unfortunately, Lu Zhongqi casually opened the letter, took a look at it, and exclaimed.
Taoist Hu asked urgently: What's wrong
Lu Zhongqi's expression was ugly: Those who wrote the letter to General Jian were the four murderers of the Zheng family, and they were also coming to assassinate General Lu.
Taoist Hu, the fourth brother of the Zheng family, changed his expression greatly, and Lu Guan also frowned slightly.
Lu Zhongqi knew that the only one he could rely on now was Xiao Meng, and quickly introduced him: Individually, the four murderers of the Zheng family were slightly inferior to General Jian, but they had the secret method of joining forces, and they were used to advancing and retreating together, so they were once They were included in the level of the Ghost King Xiyue Zhenren and the others, but later they joined forces to attack the Evil Lord but were easily defeated and became his servants. Only then were they no longer considered masters of this level.
Even so, the four of them together have a strength that is extremely close to the peak of the world, and is definitely not comparable to the sword general.
Combining secret techniques to deal with others is indeed effective, but facing the Immortal Seal Technique, which is not afraid of group attacks, it can only seek death. Meng Qi secretly laughed.
The most frightening thing is that the four villains of the Zheng family are currently servants of the Evil Lord. Their intervention means that the Evil Lord is also involved in this matter. Lu Zhongqi was in a panic again. Brother Xiao Meng, Miss Ruan, or we will rush on the road overnight.
late. Someone outside the door laughed sinisterly. . .
