Chapter 235: Old Blind Man
As the dusk became darker, the pedestrians on the street were sparse. In front of the government office and inn, they hurriedly put away the Shen sign and hung the Xu sign.
As soon as the drums sounded, the autumn insects were noisy.
Zuoma Street, five hundred steps away from Huoshi Bookstore, was empty, with only a ox cart creakingly.
When the ox cart was halfway through, three white pigeons slammed from the backyard of a certain grain shop and jumped into the sky.
A black cat showed half of his head on the eaves of the roast duck shop opposite the grain shop, blinking his green eyes at the ox cart.
An old blind man holding a slender wooden stick slowly walked out of the T-junction that the ox cart had just driven.
After the old blind man came to the center of the street, he stopped, turned his head slightly, expressionless on his face, raised his arms gently, and made a bow-pull towards the dark sky, opened his lips slightly, and spit out
One word, "Bang!"
Then, a white dove fell down, just in the palm of the old blind man's right hand. He closed his eyes tightly and his body was limp, as if he was caught in an arrow.
The old blind man inserted the wooden stick on his left hand casually.
Although the bottom of the stick is not cracked and inserted into the soil, it stands firmly on the side, as if it is growing on the street.
So, two straight and parallel shadows appeared on the ground, one was the old blind man and the other was a slender stick, pointing to the left and right wooden wheels of the ox cart.
The old blind man groped out the small bamboo tube tied to the pigeon's legs, pulled out the paper strips, slowly pulled them open, took them to the nose and sniffed them gently, and then kneaded the paper strips into a ball, and put them in with the white doves.
In his arms, he stretched his arms again, and faced the ox cart, posing in a posture of archery with a bow and archery, and shouted lightly, "Center!"
The moment he finished speaking, Shen Xiaojia, who was sitting in the ox cart, suddenly gave birth to a warning sign. His pupils shrank and he immediately dodged sideways, and loudly reminded Zhang Dahai, who was sitting cross-legged in the middle of the carriage, "Do not to go!"
Zhang Dahai was stunned for a moment and said, "What are you hiding?"
Ji Bu, who was driving the ox cart, immediately got into the ox cart, grabbed Zhang Dahai with one hand, pulled out the short halberd from his waist with the other hand, and blocked his chest.
But at this moment, a sound of breaking through the air suddenly came.
Bang! A round hole suddenly exploded in the rear compartment of the ox cart!
An invisible energy pierced Ji Bu's short halberd, leaving a little white mark.
Ji Bu immediately felt his arms were sore and his chest was filled with blood. He took a step back and barely stabilized his body.
Zhang Dahai looked at the big hole in the wing board with horror, swallowing, "What's the matter!"
"Arrow!" Shen Xiaojia saw the old blind man standing in the middle of the street through the hole, narrowing his eyes slightly, "The real fastest arrow in the world has arrived..."
The old blind man frowned slightly, as if he was puzzled why the boy on the ox cart could feel the arrow he shot. Before coming to Kyoto, he had also inquired about the boy's foundation. Theoretically, the prince of the previous dynasty should have not crossed the line.
It’s better to pass that line, it’s much worse than Lao Jiu… Could it be that he has made progress after leaving Baima Pass?
The dark black in the sky became thick, and a few shrill barking sounds came from a distance. I don’t know which passerby knocked on the wrong door.
The old blind man looked cold and turned his body sideways and listened to Shen Xiaojia's heartbeat, and finally moved again.
The wooden stick standing upright on the street was pulled up by the old blind man.
As the breeze blew, no trace of the floor tiles was left, as if no wooden stick had ever grown on it.
The old blind man held the bottom of the stick in his right hand and pressed the top of the stick with his left hand, pressing the entire stick into an arc shape, with the center of the arc just flush with Shen Xiaojia's heart.
At this moment, Shen Xiaojia suddenly felt his heart paused suddenly, and cold sweat oozed out of his forehead. His palm, which was holding the blue and white porcelain bottle, was filled with cold sweat. He took a deep breath, used the turtle breath technique, and kicked the left wing away.
The board rushed to the side of the road and roared, "Get out!"
Although Ji Bu did not have as sensitive perception as Shen Xiaojia, he also saw that the old blind man was about to shoot a more powerful arrow, and immediately pulled Zhang Dahai and flew out.
Just as Ji Bu and Zhang Dahai's feet left the ox cart, the old blind man let go of his hands, the wooden stick flew at a rapid speed, and in the blink of an eye it hit the ox cart.
The ox cart shattered and the wooden blocks flew in all directions.
Only two wooden wheels remained standing on the street, parallel and upright.
A wooden stick is inserted diagonally between the two wooden wheels.
Below the stick is a wooden board that is broken into irregular shapes.
Shen Xiaojia glanced at the wooden board and couldn't help but feel terrified. He remembered that the position of the wooden board was exactly the same as his heart when he was just leaning against the ox carriage board.
Zhang Dahai, who was beside him, looked at the ox cart that was broken into countless wooden blocks with a pale face, and his voice trembled, "I'm good, am I still a human being?"
"It seems that in the years since he retired from the world, he has crossed that line and has reached the same height as Lao Qu..." Shen Xiaojia licked his lips, but there was no trace of fear in his eyes, and there was still a hint of vagueness.
Excited and excited, holding a blue and white porcelain vase in his left hand, holding the knife handle in his right hand, pulled out the fire knife with a blink of an eye, and said coldly, "Perfect master? I am the one who is fighting against a peerless master!"
Zhang Dahai's face turned paler when he heard this, and he said tremblingly, "You don't want to die! When facing such a person, the more intense the resistance, the more tragic the fate is. You should kneel down and apologize immediately, no matter if you have it.
I did nothing wrong, I will first accept it and give him a big smile... I won’t hit the smiling person!"
"Coward..." Ji Bu looked at Zhang Dahai with contempt, pulled out another short halberd from his waist, walked to Shen Xiaojia, and said with a cold look, "Whether it is a peerless master or a peerless low player, who wants to
To hurt my young master, you must first step over my body!"
The old blind man turned his head again. After listening to the conversation between Shen Xiaojia and the other two quietly, he rubbed the dirt on his hands. He seemed to think that it was the fault of these mud grooves that had not hit the target just now. He sighed, stretched out his hand and turned the wood.
The stick was held in his hand again, and after a while, he spoke, "Boy Shen, you really surprised me!"
Shen Xiaojia looked at the old blind man up and down, and pursed his lips, "I screamed so kindly, do I know you?"
"If you kill Wu Qing, you must know me..." The old blind man said calmly, "Has he not told you that he has a master?"
"Aren't you dead?"
"How can you die so easily if you are the number one killer list in Tianzi?... Wu Qing, a child, seems ruthless, but he is the most affectionate. He knows that only by killing me can he get out of the army, but he can't do it, so he forced me to think about it.
I'll help him."
"The sun rises in the east and rains in the west, and it says it is ruthless but affectionate... Since his name is Wu Qing, then is your name sunrise?"
"You are indeed good at chanting poetry and talking nonsense. But I'm very embarrassed, I'm in a hurry..." The old blind man raised the wooden stick in his hand and said indifferently, "Your life is about this!"
"Bai Jianmu, known as the terminator of the axe, is indestructible, and it is a pity to use it as a bow and arrow," Shen Xiaojia stared at the wooden stick in the hand of the old blind man and smiled calmly, "It's better to leave it to me to make a beautiful craft, you must be able to
Sell for a good price!”
"It's no," Zhang Dahai shrank his neck and retreated, suddenly interrupting, "I happened to know the boss of the best auction house in Kyoto, so I'll help you contact the two..."
Shen Xiaojia flashed to Zhang Dahai and smiled slightly.
Zhang Dahai laughed dryly, "Don't send it, you can rest assured to reminisce about the past slowly, I will be back in a while..." Seeing that Shen Xiaojia was unmoved at all, he said with a sad face, "Your Highness Xiaojia, it's not that I'm not loyal,
It’s really a 60-year-old mother who needs care for her, and a beautiful girl who is hungry and can’t leave her life here... Moreover, your grudges have nothing to do with me. Staying here will only get in the way
…”
"Noisy! I have the last question I haven't asked. How can you leave without permission?" Shen Xiaojia rolled his eyes, then suddenly raised the vase on his left hand, and simply smashed it on Zhang Dahai's head, shrugging his nose.
He said, "Sleep for a while, let's talk later!"
Zhang Dahai suddenly had a star-eyed look and opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything. With a bang, he fell backwards straight.
"I'm so relieved now!" Shen Xiaojia glanced at Zhang Dahai who had fainted, held the fire knife tightly and walked to Ji Bu, deliberately lowered his voice, "You take him away first, I'll deal with this old man.
The blind man will come to find you..."
Ji Bu shook his head and said firmly, "Young Master, don't lie to me... If you want to die, die together. I will not be a deserter!"
"What's the one who's not dead? You'll just be in the way of staying here... This old blind man is equivalent to a full-level shooter. A flexible assassin like me can still cut everything, but a tank like you who is not fully developed is a gift to the side.
Don't worry, I have a sense of responsibility. This time, unlike Baima Pass, I just want to use him to break through the bottleneck!"
"Young master, I'm stupid and don't understand what you're talking about. The Sagittarius and Assassin... If you want to break through the bottleneck, I'll just stay by the side and follow my life and death!"
Just when Shen Xiaojia was trying to say something else, the old blind man swung his right hand and suddenly threw the wooden stick in his hand. Leng Fenshuang said with a eyebrows, "Don't worry, there is a cause for injustice and a debtor. I promise to kill you only!"
The moment the wooden stick escaped from the old blind man's right hand, the wooden corundum on the surface melted layer by layer and gradually turned into a long wooden arrow, with a terrifying howling sound, and shot towards Shen Xiaojia as lightning, like a ferocious beast, with its teeth dancing and claws
, extremely cruel and ruthless!
Shen Xiaojia's eyelids twitched. Even though he was mentally prepared, he was shocked when he saw this arrow shooting, and he was shocked and sweated. He suppressed the fear in his heart. He did not retreat but advanced. He held the knife in both hands and raised it slanted.
He said in a deep voice, "The autumn geese fly high and the people have not returned, the wind and moon are in slanting... The sixth style, the slanting moon!"
A bright sword light as bright as the moon slashed out diagonally, and fell sharply on the long arrow!
Bo! Unexpectedly, the sword light suddenly disappeared in the moment when the two were connected, but the long arrow was still there, not even a moment of sluggishness.
"Damn, this pussy is pretending to be big..." Shen Xiaojia was suddenly frightened and screamed strangely. Seeing that the long arrow was only a few inches away from him, he hurriedly turned his right foot and flashed his sword in front of him, but he was still half slower.
shoot.
