Chapter 87, The Mohist Sword
Xi Xingchen suddenly shouted loudly, and the Mozi Sword instantly turned into countless sword shadows, attacking the scholar like a black tornado.
This sword is exactly the fourth style in "Mozi's Sword Technique": Qi Jue, Sword Qi Jianghu.
This sword is also the concentrated expression of Xi Xingchen's whole body's strength and will. The sword energy is like a ten thousand-foot wave, as if it wants to swallow everything in it.
The scholar's eyes narrowed, and he knew that Xi Xingchen's sword was no small matter.
The scholar took a deep breath, and the long sword in his hand emitted a strong light.
The scholar swung his sword forward and slashed forward. The light of the sword was like a meteor breaking through the sky, cutting through the ocean of sword shadows.
In just a short moment, Xi Xingchen's sword had collided with the scholar's sword dozens of times. Every collision is like a joyous song between metals, shaking the hearts of everyone around them.
Suddenly, Xi Xingchen's sword shook, and instantly turned into an overwhelming sword light, completely covering the scholar.
The fifth form of Mozi's swordsmanship: Ba Jue, Heavenly Sword Qiankun.
The scholar was startled, and the long sword danced even more crazily. However, the whole world was flashing with sword light. No matter how the scholar moved the sword like the wind, he was trapped by the sword light and could not find any breakthrough.
The sixth form of Mozi's swordsmanship: Breaking Jue, the Great Way of the World.
Xi Xingchen's sword appeared. It seemed to appear from the void and directly cut through the long sword that the scholar was dancing wildly.
At the same time, the tip of the sword was lifted slightly, and a ray of silver light passed over the scholar's head.
When the sword light disappeared, the scholar was still standing there blankly, and a strand of hair fell gently from the top of his head.
Under the extremely fast swordsmanship, the scholar's hair fell to the ground quietly as if blown by the wind.
The whole world seemed to stand still at this moment.
The two figures seemed to be frozen in the moonlight.
"Senior Brother Lian, I finally see you." Xi Xingchen suddenly smiled, and the soft sword in his hand retracted from his waist like a spiritual snake.
The scholar returned the sword to its sheath and also smiled: "Master is so biased that he actually taught Mozi's swordsmanship to you. Aren't you afraid that I, the leader of Nanmo, will be jealous?"
The scholar is Lian Yutang, the first disciple of Ximen Zhaixing, the chief of Nanmo.
Nanmo is rich in rangers and killers.
The knight-errant acts chivalrously and acts righteously, playing in the world; the killer hides in the darkness and kills demons.
In fact, the two are walking the same path, just in different ways.
"Crow Pavilion" is an industry under the Nanmo Killer Organization. After Lian Yutang became successful in art, he managed the Mohist Killer Organization for Ximen Zhaixing. He rarely returned to the Mohist Headquarters, so that Xi Xingchen only regarded him. Know his name, but not his person.
Lian Yutang practices Ximen Zhaixing's original "Chasing the Wind Sword Technique". Although Xi Xingchen has never learned this sword technique, he has seen Ximen Zhaixing perform it before, so he knows this sword technique.
As for the "Mozi Sword Technique" performed by Xi Xingchen, it is the only one among the younger generation of the entire Mo family except Ximen Zhaixing.
Lian Yutang is Ximen Zhaixing's direct disciple, so Ximen Zhaixing must have told Lian Yutang about this matter.
Therefore, as soon as the two drew their swords, they recognized each other. It's just that Lian Yutang wanted to find out Xi Xingchen's background and see if he was worthy of walking the world for the Mo family.
Xi Xingchen thought that he had learned the Mohist swordsmanship from Lian Yutang, so out of apology, he practiced the Mohist swordsmanship with Lian Yutang exactly.
Lian Yutang was actually sent to Wan County by Ximen Zhaixing two months ago. The purpose was to collect information about Wan County so that Xi Xingchen could help Xi Xingchen when he set things right in the future.
There are only two direct disciples of Ximen Zhaixing, Jin Bo and Lian Yutang, one walks under the sun, the other is invisible in the darkness, one is white and the other is black, all of them are sent to assist Xi Xingchen.
I have to say that Ximen Zhaixing is really nice to Xi Xingchen.
Seeing the sourness in Lian Yutang's words, Xi Xingchen quickly said: "This is not simple. This set of swordsmanship should belong to my senior brother. I will pass it on to you right now."
Lian Yutang waved his hands repeatedly: "No, please don't hurt me. I don't want to be beaten to death by Master."
Although the Mohist family is a relatively loose organization, its rules are the strictest.
When the Mohist family was divided into three parts, the Mozi swordsmanship could only be practiced by Ximen Zhaixing, the great master of Nanmo at that time. Now that the Mohist family is unified, the "Mozi swordsmanship" can only be passed on to the future great masters, which is now the world of the Mohist family. walk.
Lian Yutang manages the Nanmo assassins for Ximen Zhaixing. His identity is destined to be the sword of the Mohist family in his life, but not the world of the Mohist family.
This is why Ximen Zhaixing only passed on his most proud "Chasing the Wind Sword Technique" to him and not the "Mozi Sword Technique".
Lian Yutang was extremely talented in swordsmanship and was extremely obsessed with swords. His failure to learn the most powerful "Mozi Sword Technique" of the Mohist family was naturally his biggest regret in his life.
To say that Lian Yutang has no ideas in his heart would definitely be a lie. Even before seeing this, Lian Yutang had a hurdle in his heart that he couldn't overcome.
When he saw Xi Xingchen's portrait in the Crow Pavilion, he knew who the target of the assassination was, but after seeing Xi Xingchen, he still did not identify himself. He just wanted to see if the person his master valued so much was worthy of his master's special regard.
When fighting Xi Xingchen, his first move was "Chasing the Wind Sword Technique". He believed that Xi Xingchen would know who he was as soon as he saw this sword technique.
After Xi Xingchen saw him using Chasing the Wind Sword Technique, not only did he not criticize it, but he also used the "Mozi Sword Technique" from beginning to end in an orderly manner, with the intention of showing it to him.
After Xi Xingchen used the "Mo Sword Technique", the hurdle in Lian Yutang's heart disappeared.
"Master's vision is just like his sword, it's convincing." When Lian Yutang heard that Xi Xingchen wanted to pass on the "Mo Sword Technique" to him, he was moved, but he kept his bottom line.
In life, you must always leave some regrets to be perfect.
Wouldn't it be nice to save some time for pursuit?
Lian Yutang was completely relieved.
Outside the courtyard, in the dark, in the grass, by the woods.
A group of officers and soldiers took off their disguises and quietly climbed up from the ground.
As soon as the leading officer raised his hand, countless arrows unsheathed quietly, like poisonous snakes in the night, spitting out dangerous messages, preparing to launch a fatal attack on the prey.
A gust of wind blew by, bringing with it the cold breath of iron weapons and the gasping of war horses. The heartbeats of the officers and soldiers gradually accelerated. Their fingers were on the bow strings, and the arrows were on the strings. The bow strings were looming like a full moon in the night.
The officer waved his hand and gave the order to shoot.
A stream of arrows shot through the sky, piercing the night, and shot towards Xi Xingchen and Lian Yutang.
The sound of arrows slicing through the air was like Death playing his flute, cold and merciless.
Xi Xingchen and Lian Yutang were about to exchange a few words when they suddenly heard a "Zheng!" sound, and then heard countless screams coming, and their expressions suddenly changed.
Both of them reacted extremely quickly. They rushed towards Wang Dabao's house in unison without any need to say hello.
A rain of arrows came suddenly. Xi Xingchen and Lian Yutang danced the swords in their hands so tightly that they shot down the arrows aimed at them one by one.
When the second wave of arrows arrived, Xi Xingchen and Lian Yutang had already entered the house.
Wang Dabao's house is a two-story wooden building, and the arrows fell on the tiles like hail. Fortunately, there was a layer of tiles, so most of the arrows were blocked by the tiles. Occasionally, a few unruly arrows fell from the broken tiles and were blocked by the second floor slabs.
