Under the hazy moonlight.
Mo Can stood on the hillside not far away.
He had long been forgotten in the night. Who would have thought that at the critical moment, he, who was regarded as a useless person, would stand up. A riding crop was thrown beside him, and he held a long knife in his right hand.
Yuan Jiu slowly stood up and walked out of the tent.
"Blind man, I have been paying attention to you for a long time."
He took out a short knife from his waist and exchanged glances with his four companions.
Ji Yan took the opportunity to get up and ran to Shopkeeper Kuang, his wife, and Miss Kuang. His arm was still dripping with blood, but he was holding a machete in a desperate posture.
Pan Yuan also grabbed the long knife and stood up. He no longer cared about the shopkeeper Kuang's family of three, and followed him out of the tent, licking his mouth, staring with a bloodthirsty look on his face.
Mo Can was still standing quietly two feet away, looking at Yuan Jiu who was slowly approaching. He said in a rusty and hoarse voice: "I have been paying attention to you for a long time!"
"Oh, was it your intention to stay overnight in Xiangshui Village?"
"If there hadn't been an accident that night, you would have taken action long ago!"
"You were on guard and stared at me all night. Frankly speaking, it was difficult to act that night."
"So you secretly summoned helpers and chose this place to do the work. Taipingguan, it's not peaceful!"
"Blind man, you know too much!"
"You have no vision, and you are greedy. I look at the sky with only one eye, and my mind is clear..."
Two taciturn people, either they don't speak out, or they speak out with great force, neither of them willing to give in. Perhaps they have already regarded each other as a strong enemy and are just waiting for the final showdown tonight.
But Yuan Jiu had already taken action first, and before Mo Can could finish his words, he flew towards the opponent and slashed out blade shadows with his wave of his hand.
"Ding-ding-ding-ding-"
Amidst a crisp sound like the interlacing of metal swords, the shadows of the knives suddenly disappeared.
I saw Yuan Jiu staggering back, his arms shaking, and a few drops of blood seeping from the tiger's mouth of his right hand holding the knife. He stared at Mo Can and said in disbelief: "A master the day after tomorrow..."
Mo Can still stood there, holding a knife in one hand and his empty left sleeve swaying lightly in the wind. Without even seeing how he attacked, he had already repelled the powerful enemy. It can be seen that the speed and ruthlessness of his sword attack are so fast that even a master like Yuan Jiu cannot resist it.
And what is an acquired master?
They are also masters of Taoism who have opened the mysterious entrance and cut away hair and marrow. However, they have not yet been reborn and cannot use magical powers. Otherwise, they are no different from masters of Qi refining.
Mo Can remained silent, returning to his taciturn nature again. He was like the long knife in his hand. Although he was speechless, he was cold and awe-inspiring, intimidating and chilling.
Pan Yuan waved his arms and stepped forward to meet him, and spat fiercely: "Bah, go to hell with the acquired masters. I have twelve hands. I don't believe I can't beat him with one hand. Let's hit him on the shoulder -"
With a loud roar, four men with knives followed him and rushed towards Mo Can.
Yuan Jiu took two steps back, turned around and took out a loaded crossbow.
"Old Mo, be careful——"
Shopkeeper Kuang stayed with his wife, Cai'er, and Ji Yan. Seeing that Mo Can was outnumbered and had to be on guard against sneak attacks, he couldn't help but give a warning. That old Mo was his last resort. Once an accident occurred, his family of three would not be able to escape the disaster.
Yuan Jiu had raised his hand and fired the crossbow arrow.
Mo Can was besieged by Pan Yuan and others. He fought one against five with one arm and a single sword, but he did not lose at all. Unexpectedly, a cold arrow suddenly broke out, and he was forced to block it with his sword. Hearing a "ding" sound, he was able to block the incoming arrow, and a sword light took advantage of the opportunity and cut off his sleeve with a "swish". Then there was another flash of swords, which was bound to kill him. He suddenly stood up from the ground and jumped into the air. Pan Yuan and his companions then chased him, and he killed one of them with his backhand. And just as he landed, he was once again trapped in a tight siege. In an instant, the blades were crossing each other, and they were in a melee.
Yuan Jiu raised the strung crossbow again, but did not launch a sneak attack. Instead, he pointed at Shopkeeper Kuang and suddenly raised his voice: "Mo Can, I will capture you within three breaths, or I will kill Shopkeeper Kuang!" He didn't even pause. , shouted a number coldly: "One..."
What kind of master is the most terrifying?
An unscrupulous master is the most terrifying!
Yuan Jiu is such a person. He doesn't have a 50% chance of winning, and he won't fight hard, but he is good at discovering flaws, seizing the opponent's weakness, and suddenly unleashing his most insidious and effective fatal blow.
And Mo Can's weakness is Shopkeeper Kuang.
Shopkeeper Kuang was so frightened that his face turned pale, but he did not dare to escape. Behind him were his wife and Cai'er. However, he saw Ji Yan's sword standing in front of him, apparently wanting to trade one life for another.
"two……"
Mo Can couldn't help but feel anxious when he heard Yuan Jiu's shout. It was not a simple counting, but the arrival of the moment of life and death. But he cannot avoid it and cannot break it. Only by breaking out of the siege can he save the lives of shopkeeper Kuang and his family. He stood up from the ground again, the long knife in his hand made a sound of wind, and the blades burst out with fierce murderous intent. But Pan Yuan was not willing to let him get his wish, so he and his three companions slashed wildly with their swords, forcibly blocking his move. The man who had been injured and fell to the ground also got up and rushed over with gritted teeth.
"three……"
When Yuan Jiu coldly shouted "three", he was about to pull the string of the arrow. His crossbow arrows were already aimed at shopkeepers Ji Yan and Kuang who were a few feet away. Once the bowstring explodes, someone's blood will be splashed on the spot.
Just at this moment, a strange light pierced the night sky, approaching as fast as a meteor, then suddenly flashed and circled suddenly, and then an arm holding a crossbow flew out.
"ah--"
Yuan Jiu screamed.
Everyone present was shocked. Not only Shopkeeper Kuang's family of three and Ji Yan, but also Mo Can, Pan Yuan and others in the melee were stunned.
Yuan Jiu's right arm fell to the ground, and blood splattered on his arm. He clutched his broken arm tightly, staggering on his feet and looked back, with a look of horror on his gloomy face.
The weird light is still hovering in the night sky.
In an instant, a group of figures emerged from the distant hillside, holding torches and swords, and rushed toward the Taiping Temple on the hillside.
In the blink of an eye, more than twenty strong and powerful men arrived more than ten feet away.
Surrounded by everyone, there was a bearded man and a middle-aged man. The men whispered and behaved humbly; the middle-aged man twirled his beard and nodded, looking haughty.
"Mao Guan?"
Pan Yuan lost his voice.
He recognized the leading man, who was his enemy, Mao Guan. The opponent once set an ambush halfway, but he and Yuan Jiu teamed up to kill him. Who would have thought that a few days later, people would gather again.
"hehe!"
But Mao Guan ignored him at all, and just extended his hand to the middle-aged man next to him and said: "That bandit with a broken arm colluded with the Taoist sect to harm my brother. Thank you Taoist Master for justice. The rest... are all thieves, kill them all." !”
The middle-aged man was a monk and asked doubtfully: "Are the female relatives also accomplices?"
"It is not a pity that the remnants of our accomplices will die!"
Mao Guan said bitterly, and then flattered him by saying, "As for the seized property, it belongs to the Taoist Master..."
"fart!"
Pan Yuan couldn't help but cursed: "Who colluded with the Taoist sect? You damn framed it. If you want revenge, just say it openly, and I will follow suit!"
Before he could finish his curse, a ray of light suddenly appeared. He hurriedly waved his sword to resist, and with a "bang" sound, the long sword shattered, and a tyrannical force came crashing down. He immediately flew backwards from the ground until he was five or six feet away. He fell to the ground with a "plop", opened his mouth and spurted out a mouthful of hot blood. He almost lost his breath and groaned miserably: "Humph, he's so awesome..."
Everyone was shocked.
However, he saw that strange silver-white light hovering back and hovering above the middle-aged man's head, taking on the shape of a short sword.
Mo Can's scar-covered face twitched slightly. He carried a long knife and walked slowly to Shopkeeper Kuang. He shook his head sadly and said, "That's the flying sword of the Qi Refining monk. I won't survive tonight!"
"ah……"
Shopkeeper Kuang was stunned and lost his voice.
Mrs. Kuang, who was holding Cai'er, bit her lip and shed helpless tears in her eyes.
The couple knew Mo Can's abilities and the intentions behind Mo Can's words. If Mo Can failed to survive, no one here would be spared.
Ji Yan held the machete with a bitter look on her face.
The strength of Yuan Jiu and Pan Yuan was obvious to all, but in the blink of an eye they were both severely damaged. It turned out that they had encountered the legendary flying sword!
Yuan Jiu knelt down on one knee, pulled off his shirt and wrapped it around his broken arm, stood up unsteadily, and pulled out his short knife with his left hand. He closed his lips tightly, his gloomy look was as usual, but there was also a look of fear and despair in his eyes.
Several companions helped Pan Yuan to the tent. Although he was in a miserable state, he was lucky enough to survive. He struggled to stand firm, bowed to Mo Can and shopkeeper Kuang, and then waved his big hands and said, "I made a mistake, and I admit it. If I live to tomorrow, I will kowtow to apologize to you, but you and I must join forces to deal with the outside world, otherwise No one will survive tonight!"
This person is quite capable of bending and stretching. He had just fought tooth and nail with Mo Can, and now they want to join forces to defend against the enemy. And in his opinion, there is nothing wrong with it.
Mo Can didn't answer, but looked at Shopkeeper Kuang and said in a low voice and hoarsely: "Cai'er is still young, she should live a few more years. Looking at the world, her life on earth is not in vain!"
Shopkeeper Kuang trembled his lips and looked at Mrs. Kuang. The couple was speechless to each other and nodded silently.
"Ji Yan!"
Mo Can looked at Ji Yan.
Ji Yan knelt down on one knee, lowered his head and said nothing, then stood up suddenly and grabbed Cai'er. Cai'er was in tears, but she didn't dare to say anything, and held on to Mrs. Kuang not to let go. Mrs. Kuang cruelly opened her fingers and smiled with tears in her eyes.
What follows will be a fight to the death.
Mo Can couldn't save more people. He knew that he and Shopkeeper Kuang and his wife would die here. He could only help Ji Yan and Cai'er escape on horseback before dying. He was explaining what happened after his death, and it was also the last thing he could do for the Kuang family.
"Pan Yuan, when you killed my brother and cut off my wealth, did you ever think about today?"
Mao Guan and the middle-aged monks led a group of men and forced them six or seven feet away. He said fiercely: "Pan Yuan, I want you to cut your body into thousands of pieces, and Yuan Jiu, I will cut off your hands and feet today. If you peel the skin again and get cramps, haha..."
This man suffered two serious losses at the hands of Pan Yuan. With the help of an expert tonight, he was finally able to take revenge, and he was naturally very proud.
Just when he was about to urge the Taoist next to him to start a killing spree, he suddenly turned around and looked.
At the same time, Mo Can, Yuan Jiu, Pan Yuan, Shopkeeper Kuang and others were also slightly startled. Cai'er, whose face was full of tears, was even more unbelievable.
That freeloader is back again.
There is also a sword in his hand, an unsheathed long sword...
