Chen Cheng used "blocking", but Wang Yue was one of the most skilled swordsmen in Luoyang City. He was able to withdraw his sword to block under impossible circumstances. However, he returned to defense in a hurry and lacked strength in his hands.
The Han Sword was pressed down by the "Seven Star Sword", and the blade struck his shoulder.
"Poof," the blade entered his body, and blood immediately dyed his clothes red.
"Hey, your proficiency is high enough!" Chen Cheng said something that was difficult for the other party to understand. He held the handle of the knife with both hands and pressed down hard. Wang Yue's hands were strained and unable to withstand his strange strength. His knees weakened and he fell to his knees.
On the wooden floor of the second floor.
Chen Cheng stared into the other person's eyes and said, "Tell me who sent you here, and I'll let you go."
Wang Yue gritted his teeth and said: "How can Mr. Wang be a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death!"
"You really don't want to say anything?"
Chen Cheng added more strength to his hand. Wang Yue's expression changed drastically, and he rolled to the side. The blade had already cut his chest. Blood spurted out, and he crashed through the window lattice and rolled down to the street. He saw
Someone fell down covered in blood, and there was a commotion on the street, and pedestrians gave way.
"Hey, your swordsmanship is pretty good." Chen Cheng stood by the window, watching the other person run away in a hurry while holding his chest, and all the negative emotions in his heart were wiped away, "I want to see where you can run!"
Unwilling to tangle with the Confederate soldiers who were about to come over to check, he threw nine copper coins on the ground and shouted: "Store, check out!"
After that, he didn't care whether the boss heard it or not, he ran straight to the stable, untied Gulu's reins, then got on the horse and chased away. On the small map, the red light spot kept moving. Chen Cheng walked slowly
Following behind, although he was far away and could not see directly, he could always lock Wang Yue's position as long as the opponent did not run two miles away.
Blood oozed from the wound and wet his clothes. Wang Yue endured the severe pain and moved quickly among the crowd. Relying on the familiarity of the place, after twists and turns, he quickly got into a small alley and staggered in.
Prepared hiding place.
As soon as he entered, he tore off a piece of cloth and prepared to wrap the wound, but his movements suddenly stopped and shouted into the house: "Who is sneaking around? Get out!"
Pan Yin came out with his sword, followed by four soldiers. He looked at Wang Yue who was covered in blood, shook his head, and said disappointedly: "Looking like this, did you miss it?"
Wang Yue hurriedly wrapped up the wound and said: "The target is too powerful! He is so strong that he doesn't look like a human being at all!"
"After all, you are making excuses for yourself." Pan Yin sighed and said, "Then I have to apologize."
Wang Yue picked up the sword and sneered: "Do you want to kill people and silence them?"
Pan Yin put his hands on his hands and laughed, saying: "Brother Wang is really a smart man. I originally planned to wait for you to kill that person before finding an opportunity to get rid of you. But looking at you now, tsk tsk, there is no need to wait until the future."
He said regretfully: "Your swordsmanship is unparalleled in the world, but you still couldn't kill Chen Cheng. It seems that his fate is not yet over."
Pan Yin's face suddenly turned cold and he shouted: "Kill him!"
The four soldiers had already drawn their swords in their hands, and they gathered around them. Pan Yin said with a smile on his face: "Brother Wang, I will leave first. You and I will have a good time together, and I will prepare some supplies later."
A thin glass of wine to honor yours."
After that, he took a few steps back, turned around and left through the front door.
The four soldiers are all warriors in the army. They are not only well-equipped with weapons, but also excellent in martial arts and skilled in coordination. Even when Wang Yue is victorious, he may not be able to escape unscathed, let alone now?
Facing the enemy who was slowly approaching, Wang Yue gritted his steel teeth and said with hatred: "If a certain family does not die, they will definitely take revenge today!"
A soldier smiled and said: "It seems you can't take revenge."
Another person also said: "You have been seriously injured and you are not wearing armor. How can you be our opponent? You should kill yourself to avoid suffering."
Wang Yue held the sword with both hands and said with a sullen face: "If you want the life of a certain family, just come and take it! But if you want me to commit suicide, it is just wishful thinking!"
The four soldiers winked at each other, shouted, and rushed forward together.
Wang Yue rolled to the ground, and the Han sword thrust out, hitting one person in the calf, and the person fell to the ground with a scream. The other three people did not blink, and did not care about the life or death of their companions. They chased him and chopped him down. He slashed at the middle of the courtyard.
The decoration was very familiar. After injuring one person, he ran directly to the edge of the pond.
After running a few steps, the wound burst open and blood trickled down. He endured the pain and ran to the edge of the pond, making a move to jump down, but suddenly turned around and stabbed out a sword. He chased after him.
The three of them did not expect that he would suddenly turn back. Inadvertently, the man in the middle was hit by a sword in the face. He suddenly bled profusely and fell to the ground.
The two people on the side were slashing with their swords, and Wang Yue blocked with his sword. Not long after the battle, he was slashed again on his arm. With blood spattering, he also worked up his courage and killed one person again. The last person left was shocked.
Losing color and panicking, he took two steps back. Panting heavily, the soldier hesitated when he looked at Wang Yue, who was covered in blood but filled with murderous intent.
He carefully moved his steps left and right and asked tentatively: "You are seriously injured, can you hardly stand still?"
Wang Yue said coldly: "It's enough to kill you."
The soldier laughed twice and said: "We are all paid to do things, so why bother each other? How about just forgetting today's matter? I'll turn around and leave, and you can pretend that this never happened. How about that?"
Wang Yue looked at him coldly and said nothing.
The soldier slowly backed away and said, "Then I'll leave first."
He took two steps back, turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly he shouted loudly and rushed forward, stabbing Wang Yue in the chest with his ring-shou knife. Wang Yue refused to dodge, so he raised the Han sword and stabbed him head-on.
"Poof", "poof". After two soft sounds, Wang Yue and the soldier both fell to the ground. However, he could still sit up, but the soldier was stabbed in the heart and could no longer move.
.
He was leaning against the pillar, and the ring-headed sword on his right chest had not yet been removed. He could see that he was breathing out more and taking in less air. The soldier who had been hit by a sword in his leg limped up to him and said with a evil smile.
: "You're a good fighter, right? Aren't you going to get this knife in the end?"
The soldier's face was full of anger, and he slowly raised the ring-shou sword, intending to torture his opponent. Wang Yue weakly raised his head, looked at the opponent, and smiled softly.
The soldier raised his sword high and saw that Wang Yue was still laughing even when he was about to die. He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, then he got furious and shouted: "Why are you laughing?"
"I laughed at you for raising the butcher's knife against me, but I didn't know that someone was pointing a knife at you from behind."
The soldier sneered: "I'm still using my words at this time! Do you think I'm stupid enough to be fooled by you?"
Wang Yue said feebly: "Wouldn't you know it if you look back?"
Suddenly, there was a strong wind behind him. The soldier was shocked and was about to turn back, but where did he come from? The light of the sword flashed past, and his head flew out.
The headless body knelt down, and blood spurted all over Wang Yue's face. He grinned and sighed: "I told you there was someone behind you, why don't you believe me?"
Chen Cheng didn't say anything and just wiped away the blood on the "Seven Star Sword".
Wang Yue sighed twice more and said, "Let's do it."
"You don't need me to take action. You will be dead in a while." Chen Cheng pointed the knife at the opponent's eyebrows. Seeing that there was no fear on the opponent's face, he smiled and said: "You can kill three people even if you are seriously injured."
Man, no wonder you dare to call yourself the number one swordsman in the capital. It would be a pity if a warrior like you died like this."
"Hehe, it's a pity," Wang Yue said miserably: "I have always wanted to become a marquis and a general, but I have been prepared for such an ending. Isn't it normal for people like us to die by swordsmanship?
?”
"People like us?"
Chen Cheng smiled and said, "If you are willing to follow me, you don't have to die."
"Do I have any choice?"
Wang Yue's voice became lower and lower, "I'm just unwilling..."
"A wandering swordsman has joined your party."
White subtitles appeared in the lower left corner of the field of vision. Chen Cheng stepped forward, pressed Wang Yue's chest, covered the handle of the Huanshou knife, and then pulled it out. Blood spurted out as the blade was drawn out.
As if he had slept for a long time, his consciousness rose from the warm sea bottom. Wang Yue gradually woke up. He opened his eyes and looked at the sunset on the horizon. He was stunned for a while before he remembered everything that had happened before. He
He quickly looked at his chest and saw that his arms and chest had been bandaged. The pain at the wound had weakened a lot, and there were waves of cold feeling.
Chen Cheng walked over and said, "Fortunately you're awake, otherwise, I wouldn't know where to put you."
He said to Wang Yue: "If you have nowhere to go tonight, I will take you to the Yueqi camp at the foot of Beimang Mountain."
Wang Yue turned over and stood up. The four corpses in the courtyard were still there, and the smell of blood was still hanging over the land. He squeezed his palms in surprise. Although he was still a little weak, this power should not be used to seriously injured people.
should have.
He was shocked and confused, but he said: "I have my own place to go, you don't have to worry."
"That's good, you stay outside for a few days first. If you want to join the army, I can also find a way to arrange it for you." Chen Cheng said with a smile: "If you want to leave, then I won't stop you."
Wang Yue lowered his head and thought for a while, then asked: "Don't you want to ask who sent me to kill you now?"
"I have killed many people and been killed by others... I have been hunted down many times. If you want to say it, I will naturally ask for it. But if you don't want to say it, I won't force you."
Chen Cheng said: 'What I hate most is being forced. As the saying goes: Don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you, so I won't force you to say it.'
Wang Yue closed his eyes and was silent for a while, then opened them again and said: "Obviously, the one the Lord sent me to kill you is Sima Pan Yin under Jian Shuo's command."
"Since there is something on the surface, then there is also something secretly?"
Wang Yue shook his head and said: "I am not sure who is behind the scenes, but I have followed Pan Yin and seen him secretly entering and leaving the general's mansion."
Chen Cheng frowned and asked: "He is Jian Shuo's man, right? How could he be connected with the general? Could it be that Jian Shuo secretly joined forces with He Jin? No, this is unreasonable and absolutely impossible.
"
He took a few steps back and forth and asked, "You didn't tell anyone about this, did you?"
Wang Yue whispered: "Even if I want to tell others, I have to have someone dare to listen."
Chen Cheng's eyes flickered and he said, "Are you good at following others secretly?"
Wang Yue said softly: "I just do dirty work. In terms of tracking and assassination alone, there are not many people in the entire Luoyang City who can beat me."
At this point, he saw a different expression on Chen Cheng's face and felt a little embarrassed. He quickly said: "You missed today because your martial arts skills are too strong. You can't blame me!"
Wang Yue emphasized: "In the past three years, this is the only time I have failed!"
Chen Cheng said: "Well, can you help me spy on someone? It's best to see which ministers he has connections with and which generals he has with troops."
Wang Yue hesitated and said, "How long will it take?"
He was a little embarrassed and said: "Can you give me an official job after you finish this?"
Chen Cheng was a little speechless. You just came back from the brink of death. Let alone enlightenment, at least you should not be so obsessed with officialdom. He thought for a while and said: "It only takes a month. After you finish, I will arrange for you to join the Northern Army."
Yueqi camp!"
Wang Yue whispered: "Who do you need me to monitor?"
Chen Cheng named a name and then asked, "Do you remember it?"
