Volume 2 The Wind Rises in Pingjing Chapter 174 A good show, no one appreciates it
Zhao Wuxian indifferently watched as one corpse after another fell in front of him, the speed of Qicai, who was holding the double sword in front of him, became slower and slower, the closer he got to the city gate, those ferrymen finally grew from an enemy who was not enough to be able to leave a few reds on him, he understood why the young master came here, but he didn't understand why he was so, not everything had to be done by him Mo Xiuyuan, not to mention this extremely thin family bloodline, which was not pleasing and needed to be hidden from the world, no matter how you looked at it, it was just here to die.
In a trance, a two-broken knife was cut head-on, Qicai hurriedly dodged, a palm suddenly poked out from behind him, holding the long knife tightly, dripping with blood, Qicai raised his hand and slashed the guy's head in two with a sword, and turned around to look at the pale prince, a rare ordinary person can show such a tough look on his face.
"Be careful. Zhao Wuxian said softly, although he was the prince of the Southern Tang Dynasty, he never participated in the government politics, he was like a reclusive Taoist priest, and the only thing that could make him crazy was chess, maybe it was just because he saw the corner of his mouth smile when he saw his brother playing chess with his father when he was young, and he was obsessed with it ever since.
Qicai viciously swung his sword to shake back a hundred people, and said angrily: "You shouldn't have come here, not only harmed yourself, but also harmed the young master." โ
"If I don't come, there will always be a hurdle in my heart, and if you don't go crazy, you won't survive, as for him, I didn't ask him to come, by the way, what's your name. Zhao Wuxian asked.
"Seven talents. "The little servant's double sword has been cut off, and he picked up a two-cut knife with his toes, and put it in his hand, he is just opening the spirit realm, and the seven spirit palaces are only inaccessible from the moment to this moment, which is already the limit, if it weren't for Mo Xiuyuan's stealing in the Southern Tang Dynasty, he would have been overwhelmed by the crowd, even if the other party is not a martial artist of the grade, but hundreds of people, hundreds of knives are not so easy to block, the three Southern Tang people are facing the largest and darkest organization in the Northern Wei Dynasty, not so much isolated, more like a sheep in the mouth of a tiger.
"Piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, hops, seven talents, so worthy of him. Zhao Wuxian turned around and looked at Mo Xiuyuan, who was full of anger, since he was a stranger, no matter how much he changed, he was still a stranger, only in the empty hall in the depths of his memory, a young man sat quietly in the hall, and the silence for a long time was disturbed by a rush of footsteps, a child who was only three or four years old broke into it, and the glance that he looked at each other was deeply immersed in it, his father thought he had forgotten, but he could never forget the loneliness hidden in those seemingly calm eyes, in fact, he should be counted as the fifth prince, but he never praised outsidersใ
"Qicai, does your young master have any friends?" Maybe it seemed stupid to ask such a question at this moment, but Zhao Wuxian still wanted to ask, and if he didn't ask, he wouldn't have a chance.
"No one deserves to be the young master's friend. Qicai said this, but there was clear suspicion in his tone, that guy counted, but he didn't come.
Zhao Wuxian nodded in acquiescence, Mo Xiuyuan, who was called the son of the Heavenly Dao, was high enough, high enough for everyone to look up to, who was qualified to call him a brother and a brother like this.
"Thank you. โ
The crowd suddenly rushed out of two majestic figures, not holding two broken knives, with a big axe and a giant hammer to open the way, all of them were to open the spirit of the upper realm of cultivation, the axe hammer smashed out of the Zhangxu ravine, dividing the street into two, Qicai held Zhao Wuxie's waist with one hand, biting the knife in his mouth, holding the sword in one hand on the ground and turning over and flying over the ravine, the moment he landed, the sword merged to meet the big axe twice as long as him, and protected Zhao Wuxian behind him and retreated sharply until he stopped in front of the ravine.
"Go straight ahead, don't stop. Qicai said in a deep voice, his trembling hand grasped the two broken knives in his mouth, he was not a friend of the young master, just a little servant who obeyed his orders, so he shouldn't think about why he came here, and he shouldn't be embarrassed by the guy in front of him.
"Thank you. Zhao Wuxian thanked again, facing the fierce and vicious Ghost Mansion Yin soldiers in front of him, he calmly took a step, as if he had entrusted all his life to the little servant behind him who was already at the end of the crossbow, but he still believed it.
The axe and hammer giant roared and waved his blade, and the amazing wind and waves that rolled up blew Zhao Wuxie's long hair, and the sonorous sound kept ringing in his ears, whether it was a big axe or a giant hammer, or a two-cut knife that wanted to see the stitches, it couldn't hurt him in the slightest, Mo Xiuyuan had his own pride, and as his servant, all he needed to do was to maintain this pride, even if the whole world didn't want to see this game of chess, but as long as the young master wanted to see it, he could see it.
The big axe split two broken knives, the giant hammer grazed from Qicai's cheek, tearing off a large piece of flesh, the hot pain did not make him retreat, and flew out of his hand to interrupt the knife hole through the two ferrymen who relied on Zhao Wuxian, the toes were on the handle of the axe on the ground, and he jumped into the air, holding the iron sword that had been mutilated with both hands and stabbed down on the eye socket of the axe-wielding giant, the other party raised his head and shouted angrily, the qi machine swirled, the skin as hard as the rock wall suddenly bulged, a big hand pressed the air flow and slapped it, Qicai's arms were staggered to his side, and he was directly lifted out by the iron palm for four or five zhang, Zhao Wuxian still moved forward, without the guards of Qicai, and the swarming ferryman instantly drowned it like a flying locustThe giant hammer was raised high and swung down angrily.
"Wow. โ
A roar that pierced the space, Meng Po in the distance looked shocked, and smashed the broken bowl in his hand head-on, but only heard a deafening roar, the void shook in vain, the broken bowl flew up in response, and the soup spilled all over the ground, but still failed to leave the thing that went forward, like a long dragon pouring into the street, the dozens of ferrymen in the front immediately exploded into a blood mist, at the moment when the giant hammer fell, the hammer surface was deformed by the invisible coercion, the big man's arms burst up, a thick green tendon protruded from under the skin, and the sound of sour friction continued to sound, and finally in the front of the giant hammer a white arrow cluster slowly appeared, and another big man with an axe ran and jumped, raised the big axe in his hand to cut off the long arrow.
"Bang. โ
The big axe fell through the ground, splitting a hundred-foot crack, and the giant hammer finally failed to block the arrow before the axe fell, and rushed out with the two arms that held the hammer handle, and the originally crowded street was forced out of a road in an instant, paved with blood, and the stumps all over the ground led straight to the city gate, and the three-foot-thick city wall exploded into a hole the size of a water tank.
Looking at the road that suddenly opened up in front of him, Zhao Wuxian was stunned at what happened at that moment, and turned around to see a young man holding a longbow from a distance, and there was also a small servant beside him, was it just an arrow? He asked himself dumbly, he didn't understand practice, he only knew how to play chess, but how could he be unfamiliar with arrows from the Southern Tang Dynasty, if there was no battle on the Li River, the deer bow of the Southern Tang Dynasty would still be the first of a hundred soldiers, but even if he lost, it was not that he lost the deer bow, but that Li Zaixiao won.
Bowing to the two people in the distance, Zhao Wuxian smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, he didn't know each other, that was Mo Xiuyuan's recognition, it was a good thing.
Du Jiuchang, who was sitting cross-legged on the street, was hearty, but he could only play chess, if it was the eighth senior brother Yao Qin who came at this moment, wouldn't it be more suitable for this scene with a magnificent piano sound, but why did the eighth senior brother come here if he didn't know chess, but the little junior brother didn't understand either.
"Senior Brother Nine. Su Wen jumped off the ground and walked to Du Jiuchang's side.
"Little junior brother, you are indeed the one who is the best at fighting in Hengyuan. Du Jiuchang said with a smile.
Su asked Zhao Wuxie, who had walked into the city gate, and asked, "Why doesn't Senior Brother Nine sit closer and don't want to see it with your own eyes?"
Du Jiuchang shook his head again and again and said: "Compared to those two, I am just a layman, how can I be qualified to watch it, don't let a layman like me defile that game of chess." โ
"Lie, you are a layman, how to deal with a vulgar person like me, after today, the ninth senior brother is the most proficient chess player in the world, if you say vulgar, then it is vulgar, this is a vulgar person, if you can't even listen to your own heart, it is not called vulgar, but hypocrisy, you senior brothers can live in Hengyuan in a simple place, keep their hearts to study for ten years, how can they care about what others think today, it is difficult to want to be born. โ
"Haha, little junior brother, I always thought that the senior brother was the most reasonable, it turned out that it was you, the senior brother's reasoning was blunt and difficult to understand, and it was simply copied from the sage book, but you said that I was in my heart, and who else knew chess better than me, I couldn't see it, who could still see it. โ
Du Jiuchang, who suddenly became cheerful, put the two pots of chess pieces on the chessboard, and ran quickly towards the city house, after passing the city gate, it was much more spacious and empty, Zhao Wuxian stopped and looked at the adult on the prison platform, although there are differences between the north and the south, but the official uniforms are similar, they are all rules handed down from the Zhou Dynasty, and the complement in front of him is embroidered with a small single flower, with a diameter of three inches, but it is a big official of the second grade, and it is really overkill to send the supervisor to behead.
And the other party didn't seem to look at him, between his two fingers was a bone arrow with a pure white body, half a foot longer than an ordinary arrow, but the other party opened his mouth and said to him: "Fourth prince, do you know where this place is." โ
"Where chess is played. Zhao Wuxian said without hesitation, that calmness and arrogance when he finished the last game of chess with Lu Dengke in Cangzhou were like a world of difference, calm, fearless, worthy of the name of chess saint.
"It's a good place to play chess, Lord Lu, it seems that I was indeed wrong, I didn't expect him to understand it so quickly, but unfortunately it may not be a good thing to understand it too early, the fourth prince, Lord Lu has entrusted you with the future chess path, and you are so uncherished, it makes people angry. Li Zaixin put the long arrow in front of the table, and the young man he saw in the county guard mansion that day would spit blood in his mouth because of a bad move, and he was happy because of a good move, and his eyes were full of fame and fortune, but there was nothing wrong with that, some people were young and promising, and some people were just young and frivolous, although the difference between the two words was the opposite, Lu Dengke believed in the former, so he was willing to give up all fame and fortune, and Li Zaixin was just sympathetic, so he let the other party go at that time, but today he did it very cruelly, just because everything he did was justified, he waited for Mo Xiuyuan, but even Su Wen also cameใ
"I'll give you half an hour. Lee Jaixin got up and walked away with the bone arrow in his hand, there is always something left in this world, but unfortunately there are too many wonderful processes and too few people know.
