It turned out that the other party had already discovered that someone was following him. When turning the eaves, he did not continue forward, but turned up the low eaves.
Jun Wanbai followed him and turned under the low eaves. When he looked forward, the other party's figure was lost in his vision. But he hung down from the roof like a bat hanging upside down, circled behind Jun Wanbai, and launched a fatal blow.
The light of the knife is dim and soft, like a bat passing quietly in the dark night. This man's saber technique did not conform to the upright and domineering Dao of the sword that famous masters admired, but concealed with a monster-like coldness, and swung the saber extremely fast without a trace of wind.
This is a sneaky knife technique, designed for killing people.
The man who wielded the knife was very confident in his own knife. The deep night provided a natural cover for his knife. After Jun Wanbai suddenly lost his trace, he focused on the front, and it was impossible to think that the attack came from behind.
clang-
Sparks suddenly burst out in the darkness.
The raider's sure blow was blocked. Just as the blade was about to hit, Jun Wanbai's knees suddenly bent, his whole body fell short, and he floated forward a certain distance like a fallen leaf weightlessly. While rushing forward, she lifted up the double swords she had been holding tightly in her hands, crossed them over her head, and took the silent knife from behind dangerously.
When blocking the opponent's falling blade, Jun Wanbai's calf suddenly exerted force, and the hands holding the blade lifted upwards, and the interlaced swords violently swung away the opponent's blade, with two crescent-like sword lights slanting toward The opponent's face. This was also a fatal blow, Jun Wanbai's sword never left room for it, just like her own.
But the opponent also blocked her double swords!
The opponent was actually very familiar with Jun Wanbai's swordsmanship. The moment the blade was swung away, he turned his wrist holding the knife, bent his forearm, and changed it from chopping to smashing. With a heavy wind sound, the handle of the knife changed from its previous softness, and slammed down wide open. The back of the thick knife slashed downwards, and with the help of the weight of the knife itself and Jun Wanbai's two swords, they had a head-to-head confrontation in the dark.
Not only that, but the other party pressed Jun Wanbai's double swords back with the heavy force of the fall, and the sharp blades pressed directly against her.
This is the "momentum" in the Dao of the Sword. With absolute power and indomitable overbearing, it frightens the opponent like an emperor descending, forcing the opponent to compete with him head-on.
But Jun Wanbai didn't give him this chance to compete head-on. When the heavy sword forced back the two swords sweeping up, her sword changed suddenly, from a fierce and domineering thunder to a misty and lingering breeze.
The tip of the sword floated away from the opponent's knife lightly like water vapor flowing, and the person, like a leaf driven by the wind again, fluttered up and swept back.
With a heavy slash, he only hit the air. The missed knife was about to hit the ground, but the mountain-like force on the knife was suddenly withdrawn. Turning the blade, it returned to its original ghostly lightness again, brushing gently against the ground without dust rising.
The moment when the opponent forcibly retracted the sword was the best moment to take advantage of the opportunity to attack, but Jun Wanbai slightly retracted the two swords, and the tip of the sword drooped.
"Half crazy?"
"Surnamed Jun?"
Almost at the same time, the two people who had exchanged hands in the dark asked.
The man hanging upside down from the roof took a step forward. He was holding a knife. He was dressed in black and blended into the deep night. His face was pale, and suddenly he looked like a ghost walking in the dark night.
This person was not Ye Qiusheng, but Li Xin.
"How could it be you?"
"How could it be you?"
Almost in unison again, both of them were full of surprise in their eyes.
"I found someone sneaking out, is that you?" Jun Wanbai asked with a frown.
It turned out that in the middle of the night, Li Xin, who was in the underworld, noticed that Ye Qiusheng next door had left the room without a sound. He didn't trust this fake scholar who killed him halfway, so he followed him all the way out. Unexpectedly, Jun Wanbai happened to notice his movement when he came out, so he followed him.
Halfway through the stalking, Li Xin lost track of him, and it was at this moment that he noticed someone following him, thinking that Ye Qiusheng had noticed him following him, so he turned his head and sneaked behind him. That's why there was that scene where Jun Wanbai fought him in secret just now.
Li Xin and Jun Wanbai looked at each other.
At this moment, the farmer, who was awakened by the collision of their swords just now, had already gotten up, and was about to light the lamp while shouting and groping. Jun Wanbai and Li Xin skimmed up to the roof a few times and entered a secluded alley.
"Where did you follow Diu Ye?" Jun Wanbai still frowned.
She had a vague feeling that Ye Qiusheng came here not only for the "cooperation" he said, but for another purpose. But he didn't know what the other party was up to, which made Jun Wanbai feel a little annoyed.
Li Xin raised her chin slightly: "It's right here. He disappeared after entering this alley."
"This?"
Jun Wanbai turned around and looked around. This was an ordinary alley, dark, with moss growing on the walls on both sides, and the air was damp and cold. It doesn't look any different.
Jun Wanbai looked at it carefully, but she didn't have much hope in her heart. Even if Ye Qiusheng hadn't noticed their stalking at first, he should know by now that their fight was so loud just now.
For the darkness, Li Xin, who had survived the hands of the ghost, had a higher sensitivity than Jun Wanbai.
Holding the knife, he looked around slowly, then fixed his eyes on a corner.
Jun Wanbai turned around and found that he was staring at a corner deep in the alley.
"how?"
As she asked with her spiritual sense, she followed Li Xin's eyes and looked at the corner intently. Looking at it, she also vaguely felt something was wrong. The darkness in the depths of the alley exudes an unusual taste, even with spiritual perception, it is still hazy.
When something goes wrong, there must be a demon.
The twin swords in Jun Wanbai's hands tilted slightly, ready to strike at any time.
However, the next moment, without Li Xin answering, Jun Wanbai already knew the answer.
Clang, clang.
There was a short and rapid sound of metal hitting the wall, and from the deep darkness, a figure suddenly rushed out. With the slight movement of the wrist of that figure, several meteor-like rays of light submerged into the thick darkness deep in the alley. Judging from the baggy Confucian uniform, that figure is obviously Ye Qiusheng who Li Xin chased and lost.
The other party seemed to have encountered something and was attacking the darkness.
Without further ado, Li Xin held the saber in both hands, and the temporary long saber slashed out horizontally, with the gray evil spirit covering the blade, he mercilessly slashed at Ye Qiusheng's back.
