The name of the "Shadowless Sword" is definitely not in vain. Once the sword energy starts to speed up, it will move like thunder and lightning, which is very frightening.
Although Tang Fu is superior in Qinggong, he is faster than Zhao Tuotuo's movement, but not necessarily faster than Zhao Tuotuo's moves...
Just after ten moves, Tang Fu's waist and arms were rubbed two or three times by the sword energy, causing some flesh injuries.
This is not a good sign...
Tang Fu didn't know how much the "Shadowless Sword" consumed his physical strength and internal energy, nor did he know the upper limit of Zhao Youyou's internal energy. If the opponent could fire a hundred or two hundred rounds like this without stopping, he couldn't afford it.
A master like Tang Fu can "settle accounts" very quickly in battle. He can make judgments based on experience and instinct without thinking.
Therefore, after being struck by the sword energy, Tang Fu immediately changed his response method of "cautious observation" and switched from defense to offense.
But seeing that, he faced the sword energy, advanced instead of retreating, did not avoid the backlash, and quickly shortened the distance between him and Zhao Youtuo.
Even Zhao Yuanyou couldn't help but secretly praise him when he saw him: "He is indeed a master!"
How to break the "Shadowless Sword"? Tang Fu chose the correct answer - it can be broken in close combat.
Once it comes to a distance closer than ordinary melee combat, such as wrestling or grappling, the Shadowless Sword will not be able to exert its power, and will even appear weaker than ordinary swordsmanship.
But not everyone can figure this out.
When most people face Zhao Youtuo's special move, they will choose to distance themselves further, so that the sword energy takes longer to reach them and the space for them to dodge becomes larger.
Although this is also a method, it does not solve the problem. At most, it only delays time.
But Tang Fu did the opposite. He did not hesitate to get hit by two more swords in his ribs, but he also wanted to get as close to his opponent as possible.
Of course, Zhao Yuanyou is not an easy man. As a master, if he wants to gain a long-term foothold in the world, he cannot allow himself to have obvious weaknesses. In the face of close combat, he naturally has methods.
It was too late when he said it, but he was too late when he saw Tang Fu coming towards him. Zhao Tuotuo turned the sword formula on his hand, turning the two fingers into five fingers, turning the "sword" into "claws", and swung his arm to sweep.
Although the power of this "claw" cannot reach far away like the Shadowless Sword Qi, it still has a sharp edge. As long as it is swept and rubbed, it will be like a sharp blade.
"Hmph..." But when Tang Fu saw this move, he immediately sneered.
He should laugh, and he has the right to laugh.
As the "White Tiger Banner Leader" of the Five Spirits Sect, Tang Fu is most proficient in the White Tiger Palm, a magical skill for protecting the religion.
If you want to perform similar martial arts in front of him, you have to show at least the level of Shaolin Dragon Claw Hands before he can see it; claw skills like Zhao Yuan's, which are based on unique sword skills and derived from self-research, can only be regarded as
The "flexible style" cannot even be called a perfect skill.
Breaking this is much easier than breaking the Shadowless Sword.
At that moment, Tang Fu's eyes widened, and his eyes were like lightning, with murderous intent. His palms moved in response to the situation, bringing up two strong winds, each swinging an arc in the air, and then they met again.
At this point, in this alternation, tension and relaxation, the wind of the palm has appeared, and a "White Tiger Returns to the Mountain" move is directed at the opponent.
Zhao Yuanyou quickly used his palms to block, but was unable to match Tang Fu's powerful internal energy. After the two sides exchanged high-fives, Zhao Yuanyou was shocked two feet away, and both arms were numb. Fortunately, he was able to catch up in time at the last moment.
He withdrew his strength and used all his inner strength to protect his heart pulse, so that he was not injured internally by the residual energy that rushed into his body.
"Who am I? It turns out to be the leader of the White Tiger Banner of the Wuling Sect... I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Zhao Youyou also knows what's good. Even though he is from the Green Forest Road and rarely interacts with those Jianghu sects, Wuling
He still knew what kind of magical protective skills he taught, so after this move was successful, he immediately guessed the identity of the opponent.
"Brother Zhao, your Shadowless Sword is indeed unique in the world, and it is well-deserved." Tang Fu did the same. After he moved his hand, he knew who the other party was.
On the surface, these two people were exchanging business bragging, but in fact, they used these words to show that "I have recognized you", which had a deterrent effect.
After a pause for a few seconds, Zhao Yuanyou said again: "The Five Spirit Sect is also interested in these three people, which is a bit interesting, but I don't think you are here for money. Could it be... they are in Luoyang
At that time, did you get anything that interested you from the Tianqi Gang?"
It has to be said that Zhao Yuanhao is not slow in thinking. Just by saying these two sentences, he guessed the other party's intention very well.
But this move... made Tang Fu's tone suddenly turn cold: "Zhao, I didn't come to ask you about your intentions, but you guessed mine first. Isn't this a bit disrespectful?"
Zhao Youyou understood the strong murderous intention from these words. He felt that the situation was unfavorable, so he quickly changed his tone and smiled: "Ha... Don't worry, Master Tang Banner, I am not interested in your Jianghu affairs, and I am not the kind of person who knows how to do it."
Those of you who go around talking nonsense, today... I'll give you some face, Tang Banner Master, and take the first step."
When he finished speaking, he had already turned around and started running as fast as he could.
Tang Fu hesitated for a moment, but in the end he didn't chase him. He just stood there in silence for a moment. Then, he suddenly turned his face and glared in the direction of Mo Zhiyu.
At this moment, Mo Zhiyu had hid behind a roof ridge more than 20 meters away from the roof of the inn and was observing secretly. She thought she had not been discovered, but when Tang Fu glared at her, Mo Zhiyu was frightened.
He was so excited that he almost rolled off the eaves.
After Tang Fu finished glaring at her, he actually turned his head again and glanced in the other direction in the same way.
Now Mo Zhiyu was dumbfounded and thought to himself: "Wait a minute, are there more than just the three of us here? Are there others hiding nearby who haven't shown up yet?"
She was surprised when Tang Fu on the roof of the inn casually covered the tiles that Zhao Tuoyuan had lifted, and then used Qinggong to disappear into the night like a wisp of black smoke.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Actually, Tang Fu is a little weak at the moment.
In the confrontation with Zhao Youyou just now, Tang Fu seemed to have won. Zhao Youyou was also fooled by him and thought he had won, but in fact Tang Fu did not take much advantage.
In comparison, Tang Fu was even more seriously injured in the end...
Even though Tang Fu is more than 30% stronger than Zhao Yuanyuan in terms of hard power, "Shadowless Sword" is a martial art that can ignore this gap; this martial art is similar to Sun Yixie's "Xie Fist", unless
Your strength is two or three levels higher than his, or you have reached the "top level", otherwise he will cause you some trouble no matter what as long as he shows it.
Many of the "swordsman-level" masters on the Green Forest Road are just like Zhao Yuantao. Although their hard power may not be as good as the "first-class masters" on the Jianghu Road, they can compete with the first-class masters by virtue of their "unique skills."
Tang Fu, to put it bluntly today... suffered a loss because of his own arrogance.
If he hadn't taken the initiative to show up because of his superb martial arts skills, but had chosen to suddenly attack in the dark and catch Zhao Yuan by surprise, then he could definitely have eliminated his opponent unscathed and wouldn't have been so embarrassed.
However, no matter how injured Tang Fu was, it was more than enough to scare away a second-rate person like Mo Zhiyu.
Furthermore, Mo Zhiyu was still worried about the troops on the other side who were still hiding in the dark. After weighing the situation, she decided... to withdraw first.
As the saying goes, if you keep the green hills, you will not be afraid of running out of firewood. Whether it is the "Shadowless Sword" or the flag master of the Five Spirits Sect, Mo Zhiyu is not something she can fight against; the future is long, and she does not have to do it at this time.
Click to rush up and deliver.
Just like that, the night's events came to an end.
Then Sun Yixie, Huang Donglai and Lei Buji were still fast asleep in the inn suite, unaware that they almost wouldn't see the sun the next day.
…………
The next morning, the three people set off again without knowing anything, leaving Xinyang and continuing southward.
After leaving Xinyang, the road becomes "difficult" because going south from here, there are many mountains and the terrain is particularly dangerous, which is a natural barrier for hiding thieves and bandits.
Therefore, along the next section of the road, there are basically small villages, and there are no big towns. In many villages, even the villagers are half-people and half-bandits... Of course, this cannot be blamed on them. If they were not fierce in their folk customs,
I'm afraid it's impossible to survive there at all.
Sun Yixie and the others were also very smart. They did not continue to travel in the "luxury carriage" that seemed to tell others that they were fat sheep. Instead, they sold the carriage before crossing the Shihe River and planned to buy a few more horses after crossing the river.
The horse is on its way.
Unexpectedly, after they boarded a small boat on the Shan River that day, the sky suddenly changed on the river.
In the blink of an eye, there was a strong wind and a sudden rain.
Rivers are different from each other. Many rivers do not have special "ferries". They rely on local fishermen to use fishing boats to pick up and drop off pedestrians crossing the river.
As for this kind of boat, not to mention strong winds and waves, if you get two fat guys jumping back and forth on it, it might capsize...
The situation is not optimistic now that the situation is changing rapidly.
In those days, there were no such things as lifeboats and lifejackets. If the boat capsized in the middle of the river, all seven or eight people on the boat would be dead.
Some people may ask, in a river that is only a few hundred meters wide at its widest, how long can it take you to swim to the shore even if you fall into the water?
Sorry, swimming in the river and swimming in the swimming pool are two different concepts.
Even if you are swimming in a calm river, the horizontal current will have a considerable impact on you. It may seem like a hundred meters, but it may actually take you two hundred meters to swim. And if you encounter a
Wind and waves... that's not guaranteed. Who knows how many meters a wave can take you out?
Furthermore, there were not many people who knew how to swim in ancient times. Except for some people who relied on water for their livelihood, most people really had no need to learn it, or in other words, they had no place to learn it.
Right now, on this small boat, only Sun Yixie and the boatman who was holding the boat were better at swimming, and even they were not completely sure that they could swim back to the shore from the middle of the river in the storm. The others
Not to mention people, if the boat capsized, they would be waiting to die.
At this critical moment, whether it was God's will or a coincidence, their boat was pushed by the wind and waves from a relatively narrow river channel to a wide mouth of the river.
And in the mouth of the river, there happens to be an island in the middle of the lake.
This place is actually where "Hezhou Pavilion", one of the eight scenic spots in Xinyang that we know today, is located. Today, there is a bridge to go to this island, but there was no bridge back then.
As soon as the boatman saw that there was reliable land, he quickly furled the sails and hit the pole. He tried his best to spin the boat around the waves and change its direction. After a lot of effort, he finally...successfully let his boat go.
They crashed and scattered on a rock beside an island in the middle of the lake.
As for the people on the boat, they landed ashore without any danger; except for being soaked, everyone was basically fine, and most of their luggage was not lost.
Now that everyone is ashore, let's find a place to take shelter from the wind and rain. Anyway, the ship is now destroyed. Even if we can find another ship on this island, it is impossible to sail again immediately.
So, under the hazy sky and the heavy wind and rain, everyone began to look towards the island...
Fortunately, it was still daytime, and even if the sky was covered with dark clouds, you could still see something. Soon, someone saw the outline of a building in the distance.
Not to mention, the building looks very big, vaguely like a temple.
However, just when everyone asked to go there to take shelter from the rain, the boatman told them: "Everyone, you must never go there!"
Everyone was also puzzled, why couldn't they go?
This leads to the story - the wind and rain send people across the island in the middle of the lake, and the demons hold a banquet at Lanruo Temple.
