"He left in the afternoon when you went to Ruoshui Valley for treatment." Shangguan Qian clasped his hands and reported, "He said he was going back to his hometown to see his elderly parents."
"It's rare for him to be so filial, so that's good!" Shangguan Yu toasted to Shangguan Qian again.
This dinner lasted for more than an hour. Shangguan Qian, Shangguan Gen, Shangguan Dui and Murong Fei were drunk, but Shangguan Qiu remained sober. Shangguan Qiu usually doesn't drink, but he was an exception tonight. After drinking two small glasses, his face was red and he was out of breath.
Bingdundun didn't know how to drink, so he didn't drink. She just poured wine into Shangguan Gan's glass. She was secretly surprised when she saw that Shangguan Gan drank so much wine without changing his expression. She thought in her mind: "This idiot may die of drunkenness one day."
Yu Chuchu only drank three small cups, strictly speaking, three small sips, because she knew: "Wine is a kind of enjoyment if you drink it in small quantities, but it is a kind of suffering if you drink too much!"
Yu Chuchu sat next to Shangguan Yu. Seeing that Shangguan Yu was a little drunk, she held down Shangguan Yu's wine glass. She quietly leaned into his ear and said softly to Shangguan Yu: "Brother Yu, drink less!"
"Chu'er is the one who cares about me the most!" Shangguan Yu said to Yu Chuchu, half drunk and half awake: "Okay, listen to Chu'er, I'll just drink less!"
Yu Chuchu turned her black pearl-like eyes tenderly and smiled sweetly at Shangguan Yu. Shangguan Yu thought to himself: "Chu'er has a delicate begonia flower blooming in her heart."
…
It turned out that when Shangguan Kan met Shangguan Gen and Shangguan Dui escorted Shangguan Yu back to Ruoshui Valley for medical treatment, he remembered that the "boss" had assigned him to take back the sword manual of "Nine Realms of Supreme Goodness", and immediately asked for leave from Shangguan Gan, the leader of Vajra. Hometown, visiting parents.
The day before he rode Ma Fuyun to Shangguan Mansion to treat Shangguan Yu, or to be precise, at noon on the day Shangguan Yu suffered a sword injury and was sent back to Shangguan Mansion, Shangguan Kan already knew that Shangguan Yu was raped by Jiang Zicheng Injured by the Soul-Living Sword and Jiang Mohun's Soul-Calling Sword. He also knew that Liu Mengzhi arranged for Shangguan Yu to be quietly sent back to Shangguan Mansion. However, Shangguankan did not tell Shangguanqian, the leader of Vajra, about these situations, nor did he tell Shangguanqiu, the housekeeper.
If it is a secret, it must not be made public. It is a secret that only those involved in the secret can know. This is the bottom line that Shangguankan has adhered to for many years, and it is also the only reason for Shangguankan to gain the trust of his "boss".
Shangguankan understood in his heart: "Since ancient times, it has been difficult to have both loyalty and filial piety!" He was very clear about his role and the important mission he shouldered: "I must not ruin the 'boss'' important affairs!" He thought of his elderly parents at home and couldn't help but Tears shed.
Ever since the news spread that the two governors of Zezhou City and the two generals Heng and Ha were killed mysteriously, Shangguankan guessed that he broke into the Shangguan Mansion last night and played with himself "the mantis stalks the cicada, the oriole is behind." "The man in the hat who took the opportunity to snatch the sword manual of "Nine Realms of the Supreme Good" was Lu Jianchuan, the sword madman of Wei State!
"Nowadays, Lu Jianchuan, the sword madman of Wei State, has mastered the sword technique of "Nine Realms of Superior Goodness". And the sword technique of "Nine Realms of Superior Goodness" is infinitely powerful. How can I defeat that sword technique with just my own strength? "Where's the sword manual of "Nine Realms of the Supreme Good" taken back?" Shangguankan thought of this and felt that he was unable to do what he wanted. He sighed longly: "If I don't have this sword manual of "Nine Realms of the Supreme Good", how can I explain it to the 'boss'?"
A fast horse galloped over the towering Aomang Mountain and ran towards Xianyang City.
The fierce horse under Shangguankan's crotch bypassed Huxiao Peak and galloped towards Huangyang Ridge in one breath. At noon, Shangguankan suddenly made a "whisper" sound, reined in his fierce horse, and stopped in front of Huangyang Ridge to rest. He jumped off his horse and saw the Huangyang Ridge, with its majestic peaks and ridges, clear springs and rocks, and dense trees, and his heart was filled with confusion.
Shangguankan suddenly saw an old cypress tree behind him. Then he looked up at the old cypress tree. I saw that most of the branches of the old cypress tree were still lush and green, and I couldn't help but secretly praise: "A thousand years of green cypress, unlimited life!" Shangguankan sighed again, "A hundred years of life, compared to this tree The old man is like a baby, quarreling for fame and fortune, so why bother?"
Shangguankan saw a relatively flat stone under the old cypress tree, so he sat down resolutely and drank some dry food with water from the mountain spring. A gust of mountain breeze blew, and Shangguan Kanton felt extremely refreshed. He wanted to take a nap on the spot, but he was exhausted from running around too much.
Tired, he fell asleep as soon as he lay down.
I don’t know how long he had slept, but in his sleep, Shangguankan saw a group of men in black walking towards him with the “boss” surrounded by them. The “boss” looked at Shangguankan fiercely and ordered his men to beat Shangguankan hard. After a pause, the "boss" said to Shangguankan angrily: "Shangguankan, you useless thing!" "Fight to death!"
Shangguankan woke up with a sound of "ah". He wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with his hand and was about to get up when he suddenly heard footsteps walking nearby.
Shangguankan held his breath and hid beside the old cypress tree. He saw two guards in black walking over the mountain path. One of them, Shangguankan knew, was the commander who led the troops to encircle and suppress King Cheng Sheng's rebel army. Official Zhao Qidao. Shangguankan only heard another guard in black ask: "Brother Qidao, the 'big boss' is attacking me late at night. I don't know why?" Zhao Qidao said: "The sword manual of "Nine Realms of the Supreme Good" has not yet been released. Yes, Shangguankan is not doing things well, and the 'big boss' is planning to take action on Shangguankan!"
Shangguankan was secretly surprised. He thought to himself: "Why did Zhao Qidao and the others appear in Huangyang Ridge? Could it be that they were sent by the 'big boss' to kill him? Then, what about the 'big boss' in their mouth?" Who is it?"
Zhao Qidao and another guard in black were walking and talking. A gust of mountain wind blew. Shangguankan vaguely heard Zhao Qidao say: "...Brother Sansha, the 'big boss', he was very angry and wanted to send "Shangguankan" I got the sword manual of "The Nine Realms of Goodness"..."
"Who is hiding here?" Zhao Qidao suddenly shouted. He picked up the saber at his waist and struck straight at Shangguankan. Shangguan Kan didn't have time to respond, so he pulled out his long sword and knocked Zhao Qidao's saber away with a clang. The man named "Brother Sansha" also struck at him with a knife. Shangguankan's two swords "swish", like lightning and thunder, stabbing Zhao Qida on the left, and slashing the vitals of the man named "Brother Sansha" with the right.
It turns out that "Brother Sansha" is named Li Sansha, and he is the adjutant of the black guards of the Great Victory II Empire. His trident made the tiger and tiger look powerful. The trident struck at the opponent's chest, head, and hands. His murderous and cruel look was like a ferocious god. I saw Li Sansha's "Three Shas Sealing Throat" move, which defused Shangguankan's thrust with the tip of his sword. The blade whirled and struck Shangguankan's head.
Shangguan Kan turned sideways in an instant to avoid Li Sansha's sword attack, and said in his heart with horror: "That guy's sword skills are so weird and unpredictable, it's so dangerous!"
As the leader of the black-clothed guards of the Great Victory II Empire, Zhao Qidao is known for his "Yingyue Sword Technique". His seven swords specialize in the seven orifices of the human body. Zhao Qidao lowered his right arm, and with a "clang" sound, the Yingyue Sword in his hand blocked Shangguankan's sword. Li Sansha's sword skills were weird. He suddenly shook the handle of the knife, the blade trembled, and struck Shangguan Kan's eyes with the "Three Shas Fatal" move. Shangguankan was secretly surprised again, and in an instant he squeezed the sword secret, the tip of the long sword shook, and neutralized Li Sansha's three-halberd sword.
The three of them actually fought for a hundred moves, and Shangguankan was gradually at a disadvantage. Although Qingzhi was no match for Li Sansha and Zhao Qidao, they still fought hard for a while. Shangguan Kan was thinking of a way to escape, and when the fight reached a critical point, a black shadow suddenly flew across, followed by a cold sword energy.
With a "clang" sound, the cold sword slashed Zhao Qidao away from Shangguankan's Yingyue Sword suddenly. Zhao Qidao was startled secretly and shouted loudly: "Who is this person?"
Li Sansha was also startled. He looked intently and saw the sudden man wearing black clothes, a mask on his head, and holding a sword in his right hand. He immediately shouted angrily: "Who is coming?"
The masked man in black did not respond to Zhao Qidao and Li Sansha's questions. He just used a hoarse voice, laughed strangely twice, twirled his sword, and suddenly struck Li Sansha with his sword.
Shangguankan was surprised when he saw the masked man in black suddenly attacking with his sword in his critical situation, and was startled. Two questions suddenly arose in his mind: "Who is this masked man in black? Why did he save me?" Shangguankan didn't dare to think about it, and saw the masked man in black saying "swish" to Zhao Qida again. "Two swords entered in a row. Zhao Qidao turned the Yingyue Sword around and over, and deflected the sword from the masked man in black.
At that moment, Shangguan Kan swung his sword forward and feinted at Li Sansha. He reversed the tip of the sword midway and stabbed Zhao Qidao in the right eye. Zhao Qidao was startled, turned around, pointed his toes to the ground, and sprinted towards the mountain spring.
Zhao Qidao was very good at Qinggong. He jumped into the woods after a while. Li Sansha also wanted to use Qinggong to escape, but the masked man in black suddenly made a feint at Li Sansha, struck east and west with a sound, and stabbed Li Sansha's left chest with the sword edge. Li Sansha staggered and fell with a "Ah" sound. underground.
The physical agility of the masked man in black and the speed of his sword skills were beyond Li Sansha's expectations, and even beyond Shangguankan's imagination. Shangguankan was shocked: "Could it be Cang Qiong Sword Shadow?"
Shangguankan turned around and was about to bow his hands to the masked man in black to thank him for saving his life. However, the masked man in black laughed hoarsely twice, then turned around and said "whoosh" With a sound, like a black bat, it flew up to the top of the old cypress tree in the blink of an eye, and flew away without even looking back. Shangguankan only felt the four hoarse words "be good for yourself" faintly coming from his ears.
Shangguankan was horrified in his heart, and he helplessly guessed at the man in the black mask and the hoarse words "be good for yourself".
Shangguankan looked back and saw Li Sansha lying flat on the ground with his limbs spread out and motionless. He was obviously dead.
Shangguan Kan was puzzled: "The man in the mask in black was so fast with his swordsmanship that Li Sansha died unjustly." "But why did the man in the mask in black want to help me? Why did he kill Li Sansha again?"
