The Chessboard Valley has protruding peaks, steep mountains, precipitous canyons, steep cliffs, jagged stone pillars, abrupt rocks, and criss-crossed ravines, making it a huge and dangerous valley.
A mountain road winds through the valley, with dense forests on both sides, making it look eerie. As the mountain gets higher and higher, the mountain road becomes deeper and the terrain on both sides becomes more dangerous.
This mountain road is the only way from Jiangnan to Bianliang.
Far away on the mountain road, a man walked hurriedly.
When the man walked in, his face gradually became clearer. I saw that the man was about 28 or 9 years old. He was seven feet tall and slightly thin. He wore a soft hat on his head and held a short sword in his hand. He was handsome. On the tough face, a pair of alert eyes glanced around.
The man walked quickly in the valley.
Judging from the man's whereabouts, he is obviously a martial arts master.
The man was agile, taking wind from his feet, leaping and jumping as fast as a leopard in a mountain stream, as fast as the wind in a gorge, and he was on the road in front of him in a blink of an eye.
The man walked quickly while observing his surroundings vigilantly.
Suddenly, a ray of light, as fast as lightning, shot out from the dense forest beside the road, and then a "swish" sound was heard, and a breeze came along with the sound.
What flew out was a sharp arrow, flashing with cold light, flying towards the head of the man who was speeding up the mountain road.
The sharp arrow drew a line of light. When the light was about to touch the man's head, the man lowered his head slightly, suddenly reached out and grabbed the shaft of the sharp arrow, and the light suddenly stopped.
The man's hand was hanging in the air, holding the arrow shaft, and he bent his waist. He turned his head and glanced at the place where the light came from. Then he flicked his hand, and there was another bright light, and the sharp arrow flew into the dense forest on the roadside.
"Ah!" A scream came from the dense forest.
A masked man hiding in the dense forest had been shot by a flying arrow and fell to the ground.
The man still maintained a sculptural posture, with his waist hunched, his head lowered, his eyes moving, and he glanced around alertly.
At this time, five masked men jumped out from the front of the road, holding simple knives and iron guns in their hands. With a "hurrah", they all blocked in front of the man.
The five masked men all raised their knives and guns, and pressed towards the man step by step, getting closer and closer.
The man straightened up suddenly, raised the sword he was holding, and pointed it at the five masked men approaching. He reached out with his other hand to his waist, pulled out a short arrow, and glanced around quickly. Observe the situation and be ready to attack at any time.
The five masked men gradually approached. One of them raised his sword, jumped suddenly, rushed over, rounded the sword, and hoped to chop off the man's head.
The shining knife fell towards the man's head.
The man dodged, flicked one hand, and the short arrow in his hand flew out, hitting the masked man who was slashing with a round sword.
The masked man was hit by an arrow and fell to the ground. The sword in his hand flew out and fell to the ground beside him.
The other four masked men saw this and retreated suddenly. After looking at each other, one of them shouted loudly: "Brothers! Come together! Kill this sycophant! Avenge my lord!"
The four masked men shouted and rushed towards the man together.
Four knives and guns, whether chopping or stabbing, all arrived in front of the man.
The man jumped up and stood on a rock on the side of the road.
The swords and guns of the masked men clashed together, clanging loudly.
The man lowered his head and stared at the four masked men under the rock.
After the four masked men jumped into the air, they became angry and angry. One of them put down the simple sword in his hand, took the hard bow from his back, took out a sharp arrow from his waist, put it on the string, and pulled the bow full, with eyes in his eyes. Looking at the kindness, he shot towards the man's face.
The sharp arrow flew toward the man's face with a loud sound.
When the sharp arrow was in front of him, the man leaned back, and the sharp arrow grazed the tip of the man's nose and flew behind the rock.
One arrow missed, and the four masked men under the rock became even more angry. One of them shouted: "Brothers, shoot together! I don't believe you can't kill this court eagle!"
Following the shouts, the four masked men put down their swords and guns, took off the hard bows from their backs, strung the arrows, bent the bows, and shot at the man on the rock together.
Four sharp arrows flew towards the man with a "swishing" sound.
On the rock, the man was agile, moved and jumped, standing alone, using his sword to knock down a sharp arrow flying towards the door, kicking away a sharp arrow with his feet, and at the same time catching another sharp arrow with his hand. , then flew up and drifted towards several masked men.
At this time, the last sharp arrow shot flew past the man's feet.
In just a few minutes, the man had already shot down a masked man hiding in the dense forest with a sharp arrow, and a masked man jumped up to chop him. After several fights, several other masked men also knew how powerful the man was. When they saw the man flying towards them, they felt panic and jumped away in fear.
The man was as light as a swallow. He tapped his feet on the ground, then flew up again, leaping in front of the masked men.
When the masked men saw this, they hurriedly picked up knives and guns from the ground, shouted and chased the man again.
The man was planning to throw out the sharp arrow in his hand and shoot down another masked man.
However, the man thought again and stopped his hand.
The man secretly thought, I wonder who assigned these men? Why do you want to kill yourself? I don't understand the situation yet, so why would I want to hurt his life? Besides, they called me a traitor and a hawk of the imperial court. It seems that the masked men who intercepted and killed me should also be heroes in the world. Perhaps they misunderstood or misidentified the person and were chasing me. I will spare them for the time being. them.
When the man thought this, he felt a sense of compassion, suppressed his murderous intention, and did not throw out the sharp arrow in his hand.
The man then thought that it was getting late and it was useless to entangle, so he might as well escape first without having to kill or injure others.
The man threw the sharp arrow in his hand to the ground, jumped and ran away quickly.
Several masked men held knives and guns in their hands, shouting: "Stop! You thief! Where can you escape?!"
While shouting, he chased desperately.
The man made a few turns and hid behind a rock.
Several masked men chased him to the rock. When the man disappeared, they looked around for him.
A masked man pointed at the rock, and the other masked man crept around behind the rock. When he saw the man clinging to the rock, he raised his knife with both hands and cursed: "You thief! Let's see where you are running away. "After scolding, he held the knife with both hands and used all his strength to chop hard.
Seeing that the big knife was about to hit him, the man "swish" and flew onto the rock again.
The masked man's blade struck the rock, causing sparks to fly and his own jaw to go numb.
"Surround him! Don't let him escape!"
Four masked men surrounded the man standing on the rock from all sides.
On the rock, the man thought to himself: Looking at today's situation, something seems wrong. These people are obviously coming towards me. It doesn't seem like they misunderstood or recognized the wrong person. It seems that if we don't distinguish between high and low today, these few fools will Even a big man won't let me leave. If that's the case, why don't we just have a big fight so that they know what I'm capable of!
With this thought in mind, the man flew down from the rock and stabbed a masked man in the face with the sword in his hand.
The masked man was shocked when he saw the man flying towards him, the sword piercing his face with a cold light. He shouted "Ah" in his mouth, hurriedly swung the sword, and with a "bang", he knocked away the man and stabbed him away. His own short sword.
The swords collided and a spark flashed out.
The man stepped on the masked man's shoulder and flew past.
Three other masked men chased after him, holding knives and guns, slashing and stabbing at the man.
The man jumped up and down and kicked the sword out of the hand of one of the masked men.
At this time, another iron spear flashed with cold light and reached his abdomen. The man took a sharp breath and contracted his stomach. The tip of the spear pierced the man's clothes and lost its strength.
The man fell to the ground, and a rabbit kicked off an eagle, kicking the masked man who stabbed him with an iron spear into the air.
The man jumped up again, holding a short sword, and flew towards a masked man.
Behind the man, a masked man came slashing with a knife.
When the man heard the wind, he kicked back and hit the masked man's wrist holding the knife. The masked man yelled and the knife left his hand and fell to the side.
The man held a sword and stabbed the masked man in front of him. When the sword reached the masked man's throat, the man suddenly held on, retracted the sword, stretched out his foot, and kicked the masked man in front of him over.
The man suddenly turned around and stabbed the masked man who had just been kicked and the knife flew away.
Seeing this, another masked man suddenly rushed forward and used his gun to hold the dagger in the man's hand. There was only a "bang" sound, and there were sparks where the sword and gun collided.
With the force of the collision of swords and guns, the man rose into the air, lightly stepped on the head of the man holding the sword, and then flew past.
The man stood firm again, turned around suddenly, raised his dagger, and pointed it directly at the remaining four masked men, with a cold light in his eyes.
The four masked men trembled all over, knowing that they were no match for the man. They looked at each other, turned around suddenly, and hid in the dense forest on the roadside.
The man stood for a while, and when he saw that there was no trace of anyone around him except for the dense forest, he turned around, holding a dagger in his hand, turned sideways, and left cautiously.
In the dense forest, several masked men lay quietly on the grass.
Seeing the man gradually go away, several masked men got up and returned to the original path. They found their companions who had been shot by the man with sharp arrows. They saw one shot in the shoulder and the other in the stomach, and they were shouting on the ground. , hurriedly helped him, and fled far away.
In the valley not far from the duel place just now, there is a cave, in which sits a woman of about seventeen or eighteen years old, with four girls standing beside her.
Several masked men supported each other and came to the cave. They took off the veils covering their faces, entered the cave, and knelt in front of the woman.
One of the men said with shame: "Second princess, we were ordered to ambush in the road in advance, waiting for the guy from Yunbi to come. We waited for half a day, and as expected, the guy from Yunbi came in a hurry. We were waiting We attacked together to kill the guy in Yunbi. Unfortunately, the guy in Yunbi was very skilled in martial arts, so we couldn't kill him. Instead, he injured two brothers. We were unable to complete the mission assigned by you. We, the brothers, are very ashamed and would rather suffer the consequences of the two. Princess punishment.”
The woman sitting in the cave stood up, and saw that she was more than six feet long, with a slim figure, a melon-shaped face, white and tender skin, two clear and translucent almond eyes, a small and sharp nose, and a small cherry-like mouth, which looked gentle. Tranquility.
Hearing the words, the woman waved her hands and said: "Brothers, please get up quickly. It's not just that you waited, but it's because you were not able to wait. Besides, that guy in Yunbi is very powerful in martial arts, so brothers can't kill him easily." Understand."
When several men heard this, they stood up and said nonstop: "Ashamed! Ashamed! I am so ashamed of the Second Princess."
"It's okay!" the woman said calmly, with a soft Wu voice, tender but decisive: "Brothers, thank you for all the hard work this time. That sycophant Yunbi originally had superb skills, and he was extremely well-behaved and kind. Protect yourself. Since we can't kill the thief this time, we will kill the thief next time! Everyone, go down first and nurse the two injured brothers back to health. We will find another opportunity to fight for our father and mother. , the emperor’s brother, the emperor’s younger brother and the eldest princess take revenge!”
After hearing the words, several big men responded and exited the thatched house.
After several big men exited the thatched hut, the woman turned around, knelt on the ground, sobbed and cried, muttering in her mouth: "Father, Queen Mother, Sister, Yinzhi can't help you anymore, Yinzhi failed to kill you" That thief in Yunbi failed to avenge your blood feud, Yinzhi is ashamed!"
The four girls next to her stood up, gathered around the woman, and knelt on the ground, sobbing.
One of the girls advised: "Second princess, don't be sad. That guy from Yunbi, no matter where he goes to the end of the world, we will kill him to avenge the Duke and the princess. The top priority now is to find Yunbi's whereabouts. Organize your strength, and if you want to kill again, you must let Yunbi's men fall in wait and kill him."
The woman known as the second princess stopped sobbing and said to the four girls around her: "Jinxia, Yinxia, Tongxia, Tiexia, since Bangyuandong was destroyed, all their relatives have suffered, and Yinzhi has no one to rely on anymore. From now on, I will all rely on you for help; Yinzhi has no other wish in this life, except to kill Ke Yin and Yunbi Yiyi, so as to avenge his father, mother, brother, brother and sister. It’s a pity.”
The four girls helped Yinzhi up and said one after another: "Second princess, don't worry, we will follow you to the ends of the world without any regrets. We will definitely kill the two thieves Ke Yin and Yunbi for the sake of Shenggong and Da The princess takes revenge.”
Upon hearing this, Yinzhi hugged the four girls and started sobbing.
