Yan Shifan didn't feel much about Kirigakure's delay in returning. Because his order to Kirigakure was to find an opportunity to assassinate Xiao Feng. Since Xiao Feng is not dead yet, it is normal for Kirigakure not to come back.
But now that Xiao Feng has fallen into Xiao Qin's hands, Kirigakure probably won't take the risk to assassinate Xiao Feng again. Kirigakure is aware of the cooperative relationship between Xiao Qin and Yan Shifan. He should come back to ask Yan Shifan for instructions instead of making his own decisions.
The question is, why hasn't Kirigakure come back yet?
"Kirigakure? Didn't Kirigakure work for his master along the coast? Why did he go to Gubeikou too?"
Rouge Leopard's mush is well done and necessary. Yan Shifan never mentioned in front of her sisters that Kirigakure had returned to Beijing, and Kirigakure had been hiding in Yan's mansion and had never appeared in front of her sisters.
"Because Xiao Feng has Zhang Wuxin by his side, I was afraid that it would be difficult for you to complete the task alone, so I sent Wuyin to assist you secretly."
Yan Shifan lied without changing his face. He didn't care if Rouge Leopard believed it, but he couldn't admit the true purpose of Kirigakure's trip now.
Because there is a possibility that Kirigakure has not come back and is still following Xiao Feng, insisting on killing Xiao Feng. If he really succeeds, Xiao Qin may not be happy.
As long as Yan Shifan doesn't admit it, Xiao Qin can't put the blame on him. Even if Xiao Qin suspects or even confirms that Yan Shifan sent people to do this, as long as there is no real evidence, the matter will be ignored.
This is the tacit understanding among politicians. I know that you did it, and I know that you don’t admit that you did it, and you also know that I know that you did it, but since we didn’t break up in person, we are still good partners.
"This slave only wanted to complete the communication mission assigned by the master. She did not pay attention to observing others. She has never seen Kirigakure."
Kirigakure and Zhang Wuxin were biting each other crazily like two wild beasts, with swords and daggers as their sharp teeth.
When the two of them were fighting in the cave, they were all using deadly and ruthless moves. After fifty moves, Kirigakure gradually fell behind.
But he was extremely experienced. He pulled out a dagger from his waist with his left hand and cooperated with the ninja sword in his right hand, which greatly increased his combat power. In this narrow place, the flexibility of the dagger made up for the shortcomings of the long sword and gave him the upper hand.
After Zhang Wuxin parried two attacks, he reached out and pulled out his boot, and unexpectedly pulled out a dagger, which was exactly the same as Kirigakure's. This was the trophy he got after his last fight in the woods.
When Kirigakure saw Zhang Wuxindong's imitation, he couldn't help but feel ecstatic. If it weren't for the wrong timing, he would have laughed three times. You must know that matching a dagger with a long knife is not as simple as one plus one is greater than two.
People who practice martial arts have weapons that they are familiar with, and all their breath control, luck, footwork, and moves are coordinated with this weapon. This kind of coordination must be practiced over many years before it becomes natural.
At that time, the weapon becomes a part of the body, like an arm using a hand, like a hand using a finger. As soon as the mind comes to mind, the action is already performed. Only in this way can one reach a profound martial arts realm.
If a new weapon is used similarly to a familiar weapon, the user can adapt relatively quickly. However, due to the differences in weight, size, center of gravity and many other details, the user's movements will still be jerky and the reaction will be slow.
For example, a person who uses a knife exchanges for a sword, and a person who uses a stick exchanges for a gun. These are all examples of this. Real masters are actually very picky about weapons. Others think he can win with anything, but his opponent is just not strong enough.
The so-called proficient in all eighteen types of weapons can only be said that this person's level of all weapons is similar. He may be able to reach the level of a master, but he will never reach the level of a top master.
If the usage of this new weapon is completely different from the familiar weapon, then for the master, this weapon will only hinder him, which is worse than not having it at all.
And even this situation is not the most fatal. Anyone who practices martial arts knows that the most terrible strange thing is that you have never practiced two-handed weapons, but you are suddenly asked to use two-handed weapons.
It is extremely difficult to practice two-handed weapons and requires extremely high coordination of the human body. Therefore, most two-handed weapons are exactly the same.
For example, double swords, double knives, double hammers, double whips, double maces, and double hooks. Even among the short weapons, the two-handed weapons such as Iron Ruler, Emei Thorn, and Eight-Zhan Dao are all identical.
Using different weapons with both hands is not extremely difficult to practice, but hell-level difficulty. It's okay to practice and play at ordinary times, but if you really want to practice it to the level of a master, its difficulty will absolutely crush the literati's astonishing hands to write plum blossom seal characters, or the old naughty boy's left hand to draw circles and right hands to draw squares.
The only exception is the shield, but the shield is not strictly a weapon, and the required movements are very simple, which is completely different from both hands being offensive weapons.
The reason why Kirigakure dared to use this method was because when he was very young, as soon as he could pick up weapons, the previous generation of ninja kings who trained and trained him deliberately trained his hands to use different weapons.
Kirigakure has been practicing hard for decades, but he has never used it in front of an opponent. Because he doesn't need it, he only needs a ninja sword and a hidden weapon, which is enough to kill any opponent. So no one knows about his unique skill.
Writers often like to use one sentence to show off: Everyone who has seen this trick is dead. In fact, this pretense is not enough.
If he was truly capable, Kirigakure would be like this: Even the dead have never seen this move of mine!
Wudang is a well-known and upright sect, and the purpose of Wudang martial arts practice is not to kill people. Therefore, in Wudang Mountain, everyone basically only practices long swords, except for hidden weapons. Therefore, Wudang swordsmanship is unparalleled in the world.
Although Zhang Wuxin was defeated by Yu Dayou, it does not mean that Wudang swordsmanship is not good. Firstly, his overall skill at that time was not as strong as Yu Dayou's, and secondly, although Yu Dayou had a sword in his hand, he actually used sword skills.
Therefore, Kirigakure concluded that Zhang Wuxin had never practiced two-handed weapons. Even if there is a very small possibility, if you have practiced double swords, you will never practice them often, let alone practice the combination of dagger and long sword!
Facts have proved that Kirigakure's judgment was correct. Although Zhang Wuxin's dagger played a certain defensive role, it actually hindered his swordsmanship. Therefore, Zhang Wuxin fell into a three-problem situation.
If he didn't use a dagger, in this narrow cave, Kirigakure would use his swords and daggers, and his combat power would increase sharply. Zhang Wuxin's long sword would be restricted everywhere, and he would be surrounded by dangers.
Using a dagger can offset the opponent's dagger attack in a narrow cave, but it makes his swordsmanship slow and jerky, and he is also at a disadvantage against Kirigakure's ninja sword.
It is actually very simple to solve this dilemma, that is, jump out of the cave. Once in a vast place, the advantage of the dagger disappears. Zhang Wuxin can defeat Kirigakure with a long sword. Even if Kirigakure grows a third hand and adds a dagger, it will be useless.
However, this is precisely the most painful part. Zhang Wuxin's energy and physical strength have reached the limit. He exhausted his last strength and acted for six hours before leading Kirigakure to this place where he could not escape. He must not let him go again. go out.
Once he leaves the cave, Kirigakure will never fight, but will immediately run away. Then, in this murderous mountain forest, he will continue to assassinate with various strange methods until Zhang Wuxin, who has collapsed, is killed.
Therefore, no matter which one Zhang Wuxin chooses among these three paths, he will definitely die. Zhang Wuxin was obviously aware of this, and his fanatical and fearless eyes dimmed, full of despair.
The most desperate thought was actually not this, but that he had guessed the true purpose of Kirigakure's trip.
Kirigakure was ecstatic, he was sure of himself!
"Actually, you are here to assassinate Xiao Feng, right."
Kirigakure was stunned for a moment. This was the first time the two of them spoke in the seven days and eight nights of struggle. He was already completely victorious, and there was no need for Kirigakure to hide it.
"good."
Zhang Wuxin said nothing again, his eyes changed from hesitant to firm, and he even smiled at Kirigakure.
Kirigakure felt vaguely that something was wrong, but he immediately comforted himself that the victory was determined, what the hell was he afraid of!
The movements in his hand were faster, and two knives, one long and one short, rolled towards Zhang Wuxin like a violent storm.
Some people died, but not completely...
