Wanderer of the whirling world

Chapter 122 The rain is coming (3)

In the darkness, only Hangu swordsman Ding Ping's voice sounded:
"Since Director Hu asked about it, then Ding will introduce to you a peerless genius I invited."

As he spoke, he patted the shoulder of the person next to him and said:
"Brother Xiao, please meet everyone."

The person recommended by him took a small step forward and said coldly:

"Under Xiao Shen, I will be responsible for solving the calculation problems in the ancient tomb this time."

His voice was crisp and clear, as if he was not very old, but his tone was extremely cold, as if he was reciting words to the air, without any emotion.

Although it was a dark night when you could not see your fingers, everyone was a martial arts master with profound internal skills, and their eyesight was extremely strong, and they looked at Xiao Shen one after another.

I saw that Xiao Shen was tall and thin, and in the severe cold of late autumn, he only wore a thin black silk pattern embroidered on his body.

He carried a long sword behind his back, and his hair was extremely short, which was completely different from that of the Central Plains people. He looked like a monk who had just returned to vulgarity.

When everyone looked at his face again, they all shivered.

His appearance is extremely strange, his face is as pale as a dead person, expressionless, his muscle texture is indifferent, and he is stupefied, only his two eyeballs are constantly moving, which is completely incompatible with this face. It's creepy.

Several people present looked at each other in blank dismay, they were all powerful men who had been in power for decades, but none of them had ever heard of such a person as Xiao Shen in the Green Forest, and they didn't know where "Hangu Sword" invited such a strange person.

Ding Ping saw that everyone was puzzled, and explained:
"This Xiao brother is not ordinary. Half a year ago, he presented the clues to Lord Xinling's ancient tomb to His Majesty the Emperor of Great Xia, and he also solved the arithmetic problems on the gold slips. The great Confucians were also amazed.

"With him here, all kinds of difficult calculation problems in the ancient tomb will be solved, you can relax."

At this time, someone said sullenly:
"I have been in the Jianghu for many years, and I have never heard of the name Xiao Shen. It seems that I am ignorant."

Hearing this, Ding Ping's pupils shrank, and he turned his head to look, only to see that the speaker was a burly fat man with a big belly, a fleshy face, a vicious look, and an unscrupulous look.

He is a veteran of Jianghu, and he immediately recognized that he was a well-known master of the Lotus School, and also the head of the "Golden Knife Gate", an organization specializing in assassination in Wuyou Cave, known as "Tuo Yunshou" Liu Yuanzhang.

Although this person looks rough and fat, but his martial arts are extremely high, and he is ruthless. He is one of the four masters of the Lotus Sect in Wuyou Cave, and his strength is extraordinary.

When Ding Ping saw him, he was very dissatisfied, but he didn't want to break his face, so he laughed dryly and said:
"Brother Liu doesn't know something. Brother Xiao has been living in seclusion in the mountains, so his reputation is not obvious, but he does have real talents."

Liu Yuanzhang snorted coldly:
"Swordsman Ding, this trip to the ancient tomb is not a trivial matter. Our Lotus Sect is in the Song Dynasty, and we have taken a huge risk by joining forces with your Tianshu Pavilion in Xixia. Don't just find someone to fool us , missed a major event, no one can afford it.”

Ding Ping's face darkened, Liu Yuanzhang was tall and thick, and looked clumsy and reckless on the outside, but as a senior member of the Lotus School, he was actually very shrewd in his heart.

He deliberately spoke so boldly, he must have got Hu Shixiu's instruction, and wanted to test the reality of Tianshu Pavilion.

The two parties cooperate and each has their own scheming. The Lotus School has the geographical advantage of the Wuyou Cave in the capital, and the Tianshu Pavilion has the golden tablet key to enter the treasure and the person who solves the calculation problem. That's all.

Once they entered the ancient tomb and encountered treasures, they might fight immediately.

Ding Ping knew in his heart that Liu Yuanzhang was so aggressive because he wanted to get off the horse first and gain the upper hand. By the way, he had a look at Tianshu Pavilion's attitude and bottom line. If his side showed weakness, he would inevitably retreat in the future joint treasure hunting process If you retreat again, you lose your initiative.

But if it is because of such a trivial matter, swords are on the verge of breaking out, and it does not match his status as a famous martial artist, and it is unnecessary.

Just when he was hesitating whether to find an excuse to teach this guy a lesson, Xiao Shen who was at the side snorted coldly, rushed out, and arrived in front of Liu Yuanzhang in an instant.

Stretching out his left palm in front of Liu Yuanzhang, his right hand had already passed through his armpit, grabbed the "Dazhui point" on his back, lifted Liu Yuanzhang's fat body with a light lift.

This time the rabbit rose and the falcon fell, it was too fast to blink, everyone saw the black shadow flickering in front of them, they didn't even see what kind of capture method Xiao Shen used, Liu Yuanzhang was already in the air.

I only heard him roaring loudly, kicking his feet in the air in a row, his fat face was flushed red with shame and anger, and he kept trying to break free, but because the key point on his back was being taken, his entire upper body could not use any strength, and he was limp. Paralyzed in Xiao Shen's hands.

Everyone in the Lotus School knew Liu Yuanzhang's high martial arts skills, rich experience in the world, and good at stabbing people in the dark, but they didn't expect that they would have no resistance in front of this little-known Xiao Shen.

Hunting geese all day long, but being pecked by geese and blinded.

Xiao Shen was holding a living person weighing more than 200 kilograms in his hands, but he was light and effortless, his face was still as dull as a dead person, and no emotion could be seen.

Just listen to him say lightly:
"You haven't heard my name, so you think I'm a liar. Now that I've caught you, are you convinced?"

Liu Yuanzhang was ashamed and angry, he couldn't utter a word, he just tried to break free, but the "Dazhui point" is the meeting point of the three yangs of the siblings, and the governor channel, once it is restrained, how can he struggle?

Seeing that he didn't answer him, Xiao Shen snorted coldly, and a beam of true energy passed from his palm.

This real qi is extremely cold, Liu Yuanzhang only felt a chill on the back of his neck, suddenly the blood in his whole body almost froze, there seemed to be thousands of tiny ice needles pricking in the eight meridians, the pain was unbearable.

He gritted his teeth and endured for a while, but he couldn't bear it after all. Big drops of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he couldn't help moaning in pain.

Seeing that even the murderous Liu Yuanzhang was dealt with in such a mess, everyone turned pale with astonishment.

Hu Shixiu hurriedly smoothed things over and said:

"Brother Xiao, please stop, Liu Yuanzhang has no malicious intentions, everyone is your own, don't hurt your friendship."

Xiao Shen said coldly:
"Hmph, ignorant and ignorant rat, I will teach you to suffer a little bit and gain a lot of knowledge."

As he spoke, he pushed Liu Yuanzhang's burly body more than ten feet high in his hand and flew into the air.

Liu Yuanzhang was originally very solid in the lower body, even if he was lying in the air, he could make a kite turn over and stand firm, but Xiao Shen's intruding qi was too domineering, even if his acupoints were no longer restrained, his waist and eyes were still sore and numb force.

He turned over vigorously, but his body was limp and unable to turn around, and finally fell firmly to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

At last, his muscles and bones were strong, and his body was fat and fleshy, so he didn't break any bones, but even so, he fell into a mess, his internal organs moved, and a mouthful of blood gushed into his throat, almost spitting out.

Liu Yuanzhang struggled to stand up, and shouted fiercely:
"I fought with you!"

As he spoke, he unfolded the 32 moves "Golden Winged Roc Palm" he had learned all his life, and attacked Xiao Shen desperately.

Hu Shixiu on the side hurriedly stopped and said:

"Liu Yuanzhang, stop it!"

But Liu Yuanzhang had never made such a big ugliness in front of everyone. He was so angry at this moment that he couldn't hear it.

When everyone saw this, they were all secretly startled. This Liu Yuanzhang has been in the world for decades, and there are indeed real materials.

While he was furious, he still kept his tricks in order. Although the current palm looked ordinary, it actually sealed off the escape routes in front of Xiao Shen's left and right sides.

Everyone thought, don't look at him just made a fool of himself, but if it wasn't for Xiao Shen's surprise attack just now, he might not be able to please the master of the Golden Knife Sect.

Xiao Shen sneered and said:

"Not convinced? Then beat until you are convinced."

As he spoke, he stretched out his right index finger and tapped lightly on Liu Yuanzhang's palm.

Liu Yuanzhang was even more annoyed when he saw that he only touched his majestic palm with one finger, full of contempt, and thought to himself:
"You are just relying on your skillful grasping techniques to sneak attack while I am underestimating the enemy. If you are competing for real strength, if I don't smash your finger bones with this palm, it will be considered as a waste of my martial arts for decades."

But when his palms and fingers collided, he felt as if he had slapped his palm on a red-hot cone, and he felt a sharp pain in his heart.

"boom!"

Blood gushed out from Liu Yuanzhang's palm, and the palm of his right palm was pierced by Xiao Shen's finger.

Seeing Xiao Shen's bloody fingers protruding from the back of his hand, Liu Yuanzhang couldn't hide the horror on his face, the muscles on his face kept twitching, he didn't know whether it was from pain or anger.

Xiao Shen pulled out his finger, wiped the skirt casually, and asked casually:

"Are you satisfied?"

Liu Yuanzhang was seriously injured, his palms were so painful that he lost consciousness, he kept trembling, his face was blushing and pale, and all thoughts were lost in his heart, he bowed his head and could not utter a word.

Hu Shixiu's face was ashen, and the corners of his eyes flashed with ferocity, but he was very strong, and he was not sure that he could beat Xiao Shen and Ding Ping, not to mention that he couldn't kill each other at this juncture, so he had to swallow this first Tone, talk about it later.

He hurriedly ordered someone to help Liu Yuanzhang bandage the wound, and said at the same time:
"Brother Xiao, we are all good friends, everyone, don't want to hurt the harmony and ruin the big event because of the conflict of emotions."

Xiao Shen gave a noncommittal "hmm" and stood there calmly with his hands behind his back.

Hu Shixiu said with a fake smile:
"I didn't expect Brother Xiao to not only have extraordinary attainments in the art of arithmetic, but also martial arts. I admire, admire."

Xiao Shen still had that dead face and didn't say a word.

Hu Shixiu was a little embarrassed, changed the subject and said:
"It is unusual to enter the ancient tomb this time. The three leaders of Youquan, Mingquan and Yaoquan of our school will also come. In addition, Master Xuancheng from Bixia Palace on Penglai Island in the East China Sea will also be our ally, but he will be with us. People from Kaifeng Prefecture entered the ancient tomb together, as our internal assistance."

Hearing this, Ding Ping's heart moved, the Lotus School is unique in the martial arts, not only relying on decades of management in the Wuyou Cave of the capital, but also the three leaders of their school, their identities are mysterious, and they are said to have the extraordinary The power of being half human and half immortal is no small matter.

But there are many masters on our side, so we may not be afraid of them.

So he laughed and said:

"It turns out that Manager Hu has prepared in such detail, no wonder he has a plan in his mind. So, let's make a plan today."

As he spoke, he took out a gold tablet from his bosom, and saw a monster engraved on it, with the head of a tiger and the body of an ox, covered with bristles like a hedgehog, with wings on its back, very vicious.

He said:
"This is the key to unlock the treasure. There are four keys in total. Except for the one in the hands of the servant, Bao Heizi from Kaifeng Mansion is said to have found another key outside the tomb of Lord Xinling. The other two are unknown, so , we have to beware that there are other people who will enter the ancient tomb."

Xiao Shen interface added:
"You only need to answer the calculation problem to open the door correctly once, and then you can enter with the key. In other words, if the people in Kaifeng Mansion have not solved the calculation problem, then we don't have to rush to show up. After they return disappointed and remove the troops, we can Enter alone without anyone noticing, and monopolize the treasure.

"If they have the answer, then we will follow them in, with a praying mantis, a cicada, and an oriole behind us. Whether it is a sneak attack or a treasure hunt, it will be under our control.

"No matter what, we can take the initiative. However, we must beware of the owners of the other two keys entering behind us to compete for the treasure."

At this moment, someone in the distance said:
"This old man's plan is quite thoughtful, and Pindao admires him very much."

The voice was warm and sweet, although it was far away, it was caught in the wind and was clearly transmitted to everyone's ears, which showed that the speaker's internal strength was pure and profound.

Everyone was startled, and followed the prestige, only to see a person wearing a gossip robe, holding a dust whisk, arriving calmly.

This person's figure is erratic, like a ghost, and he walks lightly without touching the ground, as if he is riding clouds and fog, full of fairy spirit.

This lightness alone is enough to shock the world.

Hu Shixiu recognized at a glance that this person was Taoist Xuancheng from Penglai Island in the East China Sea.

He secretly wondered, after not seeing him for half a month, this Taoist Xuancheng's martial arts seemed to have improved a lot, the martial sage of Bixia Palace really has something extraordinary.

At their level of martial arts, they have already reached the pinnacle, and it is even more difficult to go further, but this person has made another breakthrough in a short period of time, which is really incredible.

He didn't know that Taoist Xuancheng had absorbed part of the true qi of the four masters Mu Guiying, Ma Fenggu, Zen Master Zhijing and Xin Ziqiu in Tianbo Mansion. greatly enhanced.

This is his own chance, but it has nothing to do with Wu Sheng Yu He.

Seeing that everyone was on alert, Hu Shixiu quickly explained:
"Everyone, don't be alarmed. This Taoist priest is the Bixia Palace Taoist Xuancheng that I mentioned before. Regardless of his young age, he is a direct disciple of the Martial Sage, and his skill is extraordinary."
