Chapter 448 Ghost Slaying Sword(1/2)
Zhao Zhen walked out of the imperial study room, stood in the yard, raised his face, and watched the eye-catching crack in the air break into ice slag and fall.
Not only Zhao Zhen was watching, but also the people in Kaifeng City were watching. Everyone had only one thought at this time - why did the sky crack? Is there some kind of punishment?
However... with a long sound from the sea dragon circling in the air, a black figure rushed out from the crack... In the blue and cloudless sky, two figures, one red and one white figures chased the black shadow at the same time.
Zhao Zhen looked up and looked back for a while, then turned around and saw that he had been bandaged by Gongsun and was standing behind him and looking at Nangong who was standing behind him and looking at the sky.
An emperor has been recruiting talents all his life and hopes that people can work for him. The so-called life is based on the premise of buying life... However, life cannot and should not be bought or sold, so it is a ridiculous idea to think of someone to work for you.
So what makes others willing to sacrifice your life for you? It is difficult for even ordinary people, let alone warriors with unique skills or arrogant knights?
Zhao Zhen took his sight from Nangong - Nangong Jihui died for him, in addition to his duties, because of his love for decades. Life is really expensive, and more than twenty years of deep affection can bring about going through fire and water and sacrificing one's life. So it is so stupid to try to buy a proud man from the world with fame and fortune.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang's figures were beyond Zhao Zhen's sight, and many guards who were good at kung fu went up to the roof to continue watching.
Zhao Zhen looked at the sky - what exactly are the martial arts practitioners pursuing? Especially masters like Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, or saints like Tianzun and Yin Hou, what are they pursuing?
Zhao Zhen became very interested in the martial arts world because he met Tianzun and Yin Hou, and was curious that they could teach people like Zhan Zhaohe Bai Yutang. After hearing many stories about the world, he asked Nangong Ji, who were like Yin Hou and Tianzun, who had experienced so much pain and carried so much debt, what else would he pursue?
Nangong couldn't answer, but Ge Qing gave him an answer.
This little disciple of Tianshan Sect told him that Tianzun once wrote a sentence on the Sky-Pointing Stone on the top of Tianshan Mountain, which was also his only admonition to Tianshan Sect, "A person who practices martial arts will die, but his heart is there, and his heart will die, and his ambition will last forever."
It is said that Xiao Ge Qing always recites this sentence every night when he sleeps and talks in his sleep. Zhao Zhen also gave up the idea of attracting people from the world since he heard this sentence...
Just like Zhan Zhaohe Bai Yutang saved his life and captured the assassin today, what they pursued and maintained was their own things, and they had nothing to do with imperial power, fame and fortune.
...
The black figure quickly fled out of the imperial city.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang chased after him in a different way. Zhan Zhao was like a harrier eagle passing through the air, while Bai Yutang was almost close to the roof of Kaifeng City like a shadow wandering on the wall. The two of them were obviously faster than the black shadow, so they chased each other closer and closer.
Many people in Kaifeng City fell to their backs because they looked up.
Many people realized that this was another master who had committed a crime, so they ran out of the city to watch the fight.
Zhao Pu's shadow guards also followed closely, but it was too difficult for everyone to follow the light skills of the two people ahead.
Ziying chased after him all the way, and said to Zhuying beside her, "Zhan Zhaozhen is not a human being, this kind of light skills is completely unreasonable!"
Zhuying also struggled to follow. The black shadow and white shadow were not much better. They almost fell from the roof several times. They were following Bai Yutang. If Zhan Zhao's swallow flying was mysterious, then the relative shadow followed was the most ordinary light skills, the fastest speed and the purest internal strength... If a person without that little ability wanted to catch up, he would stumble on himself.
Finally, several shadow guards gave up and stopped to take a breath and chased after him.
At this time, Zhan Zhao had already jumped to the front of the man in black, standing on a high flagpole on the uppermost floor of the city gate. The man in black stopped on the roof in front of the city wall, and saw that the way ahead had been blocked by Zhan Zhao, so he turned around.
But Bai Yutang had already stood on the roof not far behind him and blocked the way back.
The man in black didn't seem to want to fight with the two. He turned around and wanted to walk from the left, but a red figure appeared on the city wall on the left. Lin Yehuo was just at the gate of the city and had been waiting for a long time.
The man in black took another step to the right, and a black figure appeared on the spire of a tower on the right.
All the shadow guards stick out their tongues - When did Zhao Pu arrive?
Just as the man in black was trapped on the roof, the four gates of Kaifeng city gates at Zhan Zhao's feet opened, and a large number of imperial city troops poured into the city gate. Several young generals led four teams of troops to surround the small building, and the officers and soldiers evacuated the nearby residents in an orderly manner.
Outside the Kaifeng city gate, Ouyang Shaozheng carried his ice iron stick and walked in, "Whoever is the one I'm going to get into on my first day?"
He raised his iron stick to the ground, and the ground trembled.
Huo Qilin raised his face and looked at the man in black, laughed, "You are the only one?"
The man in black stood there without moving and looked at Ouyang Shaozheng.
Ouyang was happy and pointed at the surroundings, "You can choose one yourself."
Everyone understood what Ouyang Shaozheng meant, and did not fight less, there were so many experts here, so he asked him to choose one of them to fight one by himself.
At this time, everyone saw the true face of this man in black hiding in the "sky".
This man was not simply wearing black clothes, but outside the black clothes, there was also a "cage". The so-called cage is armor made of black metal. This set of armor is very strange, like human bones, buckles the whole body layer by layer, and it seems to be wrapped by several large black spiders. The man's face was wrapped in bandages, and he could not see his appearance. He also covered with a black hood with horizontal texture, so he felt like he was locked in a human-shaped black iron cage.
The man raised his head when he heard Ouyang Shaozheng's words, stood up and glanced around.
This person is about the same height as Zhan Zhao Baiyutang and others. Judging from his figure, he is probably the same age. His internal strength is very high and his martial arts are very evil.
On the roof in the distance, Yin Hou and Tianzun were watching when they saw a ladder appearing near the eaves, and Gongsun climbed up.
Xiao Sizi, who had been resisted by Xiao Liangzi, pulled his father away.
Gongsun went up to the roof and asked, "How is it?"
"I haven't started fighting yet." Lu Tianhan said.
The Heavenly Lord pulled Yin Hou, "Guess who he chose?"
Yin Hou had no choice but to look at Tianzun, "Did you see that set of armor?"
Tianzun nodded with a smile.
Lu Tianhan also frowned, "But his figure is obviously not a soldier king."
"Are you going to be a descendant?" asked Yin Hou.
The Heavenly Lord sighed, "Oh, it turns out that the country has caused harm in generations, and the new generation has changed the old ones. The Soldier King himself has a bad seed, and his descendants are not like good people."
"Soldier King?"
While everyone was chatting, Zhao Zhen also climbed up the ladder, walked to the roof, looked away, and asked everyone, "Who is he? Have a grudge against my Zhao royal family?"
Tianzun looked at Zhao Zhen, and when he saw that he looked serious, he reached out and patted him on the shoulder, "Don't mind, there are many people who have grudges against your Zhao royal family, and there are not more him."
Zhao Zhen sighed helplessly, Tianzun’s words were true.
"Look at who he chooses, you can probably know if he is a descendant of the Spider King." Lu Tianhan said.
Both Tianzun and Yin Hou nodded.
"Can he choose Zhao Pu?" Gongsun was a little nervous, "He doesn't hate Zhao's descendants..."
Zhao Zhen also frowned slightly. There was no reason for so many masters from the world to let Zhao Pu fight against the enemy. Zhao Pu kept it for war.
However, Hou Yin shook his head, "If he is really the King of Soldiers, then he can only choose one person..."
Before he finished speaking, the man in black suddenly pulled something out from behind, and saw it as a short sword.
He reached out and swung the dagger in the air and then stood up in front of him. A long sword fell from the bottom of the dagger... So he held a strange sword in his hand, with both ends, short on the top and long on the bottom, with the hilt in the middle.
The little fourth son sat on Gongsun's lap and asked curiously, "What kind of weapon is Daddy?"
"Well..." Gongsun tilted his head. He walked around Zhao Pu's military camp a lot. He had seen many weapons, but this was the first time he saw this. As an outsider, Gongsun looked at the weapon in confusion, "Will it hurt himself like this?"
Tianzun was amused by Gongsun's words, and Yin Hou said, "This weapon is also the Spider King's, two-life sword."
"Two Life Sword..." Gongsun thought about it once, and was about to ask what the origin of this weapon...
"Dad, look at it." Xiao Sizi suddenly reached out and pointed ahead.
Gongsun looked in the direction of his finger and saw the man in black holding a sword in his hand, reaching out to face one direction, and in front of him was Zhan Zhao standing on the flagpole of the city tower.
Everyone raised their eyebrows - is he trying to raise Zhan Zhao to fight?
Lu Tianhan whispered, "It seems that it's true."
Both Yin Hou and Tianzun nodded.
Gongsun was puzzled, "Why did he choose Zhan Zhao to fight alone?"
"Even if the descendants of the Soldier King are about to die, they will definitely be divided into the right and wrong with Zhan Zhao before they die." Tianzun said, "Because the Soldier King was defeated by the old ghost of Yin Hou. If he had won that year, the title of the number one devil in the world should be his."
Gongsun was surprised after hearing this, "Is anyone snatching this kind of name?"
Yin Hou's mouth twitched, "It seems that someone cares about this title."
The Heavenly Lord held back his laughter and asked Yin Hou, "Have you told your cat to deal with the Liangsheng Sword?"
When Yin Hou shrugged, everyone guessed that with Yin Hou's personality, it was impossible to tell Zhan Zhao something like this.
"But the King of Soldiers may not have told his future generations about his experience in fighting with you back then." Lu Tianhan looked at Mr. Yin, "That kid has mastered so many internal forces, so he can see that he is prepared."
"So what?" Yin Hou said indifferently, "When I hit him, weren't it all the same unprepared?"
Yin Hou hugged his arms and nodded, "It's true" and then reminded Yin Hou, "This seems not from his son's generation, right? He has been dead for some years, probably like your cat, and he is a grandchild."
Yin Hou nodded.
...
At this time, everyone in the confrontation also saw the choice made by the man in black and was confused.
In fact, Zhan Zhao, Bai Yutang, Zhao Pu, and Lin Yehuo are not easy to deal with.
Everyone knew that this person had a grudge against the Zhao royal family, so they all thought that he might fight Zhao Pu alone.
Zhao Pu hasn't had a fight for a long time, and this time he was very excited and wanted to fight. In addition, the kid almost succeeded in assassination just now and hurt Nangong Ji. Although he and Nangong are not as good as those of Ouyang, they are also good brothers who have grown up together since childhood. This kid is too sinister and Zhao Pu dislikes him very much.
But Zhao Pu even carried the Xinting Hou on his shoulders, but the kid chose Zhan Zhao to fight alone.
The Ninth Prince said to himself - OK! After Zhan Zhao finished fighting, there was no more scum left, how could he be satisfied?
The many shadow guards on the side breathed a sigh of relief. Zhao Pu had never lost the fight, but he couldn't afford to worry about this, so it was more appropriate for Zhan Zhao to solve the weirdo.
Lin Yehuo squatted on the opposite city tower, like a puppy, holding his chin with his hands and tilting his head, "Is it Zhan Zhao the most honest? So he is the one who chooses according to his face?"
To be continued...
