Chapter 17 Blue Ghosts
The old Iron Arrow monk rolled his eyes, spread out his hands, and said helplessly to the old man, "Look, I don't have anything in my hands. Although the bow and arrows are still on my back, I, an old monk, and you, a powerful man, can't stand each other."
Are you afraid of the Nanli Sword Master from all over the world fighting in close combat?"
When he said the last sentence, the old monk Iron Arrow chuckled, rubbed his chin with one palm, looked at the old man teasingly and asked, "Are you afraid that you can't beat me up close with bare hands?"
When the old man heard this, he stood up suddenly, and the face of the Nanli Sword Master was finally revealed under the reflection of a little dark light.
It can be said that this is an arrogantly young face compared to the old monk Iron Arrow. Although it is still a middle-aged face, it looks extraordinarily heroic. The few scars on the cheeks and the majestic body are like
After taking off his black cassock, the old Iron Arrow monk looked slightly thinner, and when compared to him, it was a matter of comparison.
"You old bald ass, do you still want to see the power of that sword from back then?"
After that, the old man stretched out his left palm, and the ancient bronze sword placed next to the coffee table flew straight towards his palm under the adsorption of the old man's internal force.
"Forget it, old monk, I am not here to fight with you today. I want to live a few more years, old monk."
When the old monk Iron Arrow saw the old man trying to draw his sword, he subconsciously took a few steps back. For him, the power of the sword a few years ago was still very unforgettable.
If you want to find one person in the world who knows the strength of Nanli Sword Master best, it is undoubtedly the Iron Arrow Old Monk.
Although there were several people watching the battle at that time, he was the only one who personally faced the power of that sword, the old monk.
With the strength of that sword, Old Monk Iron Arrow had no doubt that it could easily split a mountain. So much so that after he was able to save a life from that sword, he thought that there was help from the gods. Otherwise, even if he is now
With his cultivation level, it was very difficult to block that sword attack back then, so difficult that he didn't even dare to recall it.
When the old man saw that the old monk Iron Arrow was so frightened by him, he laughed loudly, and then he threw away his ancient bronze sword and threw it impartially on the coffee table. Then the old man sat down again,
He leaned his head on the back of the chair and said lightly
"Then let's talk about it. What do you want to talk about when you come here today, you old bald ass?"
When the old monk Iron Arrow heard this, he shrugged, found a bench from the side, sat down, crossed his legs, and replied, "What else could it be? I don't believe that you, an old boy, didn't feel that something was wrong.
"
The old man smiled and shook his head, indicating that he did not understand what the old monk Iron Arrow was talking about.
The old monk Iron Arrow curled his lips, thinking that this old boy was playing riddles again, pretending to be confused while pretending to understand. In the end, he could only sigh and spoke first, "It's my disciple Hu Di Xiao and your beloved disciple Ku Mu Na."
Don’t you think something is wrong about the cause of the war?”
The old man became somewhat interested, straightened his body, and leaned towards the desk in front of him. He supported his chin with one hand and the other hand.
He stretched out his hand to indicate that Old Monk Iron Arrow should continue speaking.
When Old Monk Iron Arrow saw his old enemy behaving like this, he seemed to have been used to it for a long time, so he could only act like a good boy and continue talking.
"My apprentice told me that the day before his battle with Kumu, he was resting on his bed in the evening, and then he heard a knock on the door. When he opened the door, there was no one outside.
There are two corpses on the ground, and those two corpses are the two members of his gold-bearing team." When he said this, the old monk Iron Arrow suddenly felt thirsty, stood up and walked to the desk,
He picked up a cup from the table, picked up the teapot from the side, poured a cup of tea and drank it in one gulp, then wiped his mouth, sat back down and continued.
"After my apprentice saw the two corpses, he carefully inspected them and finally confirmed that the sword energy of bitter wood remained on the two corpses. They were both killed with one sword, and then my apprentice
His temper was a little reckless, so that night he summoned the men and horses of the Jinsi and chased Kumu all night long, and finally the battle came about. However," the old monk Iron Arrow paused after saying this, and his eyes polished.
After looking at the old man's eyes and confirming that there was no change, he raised the corners of his mouth, smiled, and continued.
"Old monk, I thought about it afterwards. Those two are both good at holding gold. Although their cultivation is not particularly high, they are not mortals who can kill with one blow. At that time, that small town could do this.
There is no doubt that there is only one person, Kumu."
"So you think this is my hand? Then what else can you say when you come here today?" The old man picked up the teacup that Old Monk Iron Arrow drank from with one hand, played with it in his hand, and looked at it with a playful expression.
The old monk with the iron arrow.
"No, no, no, although all the sources point to Kumu, old monk, I think the real truth is not like this. After all, I have also seen the child Kumu, old monk. He looks like the image of my Buddha, so it must not be the case.
A murderous person." After saying this, the old monk Iron Arrow clasped his hands together and said Amitabha.
In the eyes of the old man, such pretense is extremely funny.
What the hell is there a statue of my Buddha? After this old bald donkey luckily saved his life in that battle, for some reason he immediately shaved his head and became a monk. He went to that Zen temple and became a monk. From then on, he never wore a cassock.
Do you know how many people have been deceived who don’t know the truth?
Hum, really, the weasel is paying New Year greetings to the chicken...
Old Monk Iron Arrow naturally didn't know what the old man opposite him was thinking, but just by looking at that disdainful look, he knew that this old man was definitely not holding anything back.
Yes, after that battle that year, there were two endings that shocked the mainland and Nanli Country. One was that the old man in front of Old Monk Iron Arrow became a god in one battle and shocked all countries. The other was that battle.
Later, for some reason, the old monk Tiejian, who was once known as the master of Nanli's archery, chose to shave his head and become a monk, entered Zen Buddhism, and became a monk. This incident also shocked the entire Nanli martial arts at that time, and this incident
It is still a mystery that no one knows about.
And these two former rivals are now known as Nanli Sword Master, and the other is regarded as Tiejian Zen Master by Zen Buddhism.
He was authorized to wear black cassocks, which both represent the top fighting power of Nanli's current royal family and the top fighting power of religion.
"Forget it, forget it, don't beat around the bush with me, don't you just think that someone is behind this matter?" The old man was already a little impatient when he said this. The more he looked at this now,
The seemingly kind smile of the old monk Iron Arrow became more and more uncomfortable, and he just wanted to get to the point quickly.
No matter how much you raise your Qi, it’s much more comfortable to be yourself.
The old man muttered in a low voice.
"That's good, that's good. It's really a blessing for me, the Buddha, that the donor can notice this." Before the old monk Tiejian could finish his words, the old man roared.
"You old man, if you keep pretending like this with me, do you believe that I will strike you with my sword and send you to see Bodhidharma?"
Although these words were full of gunpowder, they sounded particularly comfortable to the ears of the old monk Iron Arrow. At this moment, he felt that his little trick had succeeded. The old man in front of him was the real old man. He had just pretended to be there.
It's similar to what it is.
"Old monk, I suspect that behind this matter, there must be someone in charge of his gold department. Otherwise, how could outsiders be able to do those things."
"You mean the two corpses?"
"The sword aura on the two corpses should be genuine. They were undoubtedly left by Kumu, but what they did and who they met during their lifetimes should be the key to this matter."
After saying this, Old Monk Iron Arrow turned his eyes towards the old man. He had already said everything that needed to be said. He believed that the man in front of him would know what to do next.
"I, Tu Kumu, was surrounded and killed by some men in black the day before the battle with Hu Dixiao."
The old man said this coldly
The old monk Iron Arrow suddenly stared at the old man with wide eyes.
The old man felt the look in Old Monk Iron Arrow's eyes and continued, "Kumu told me that those men in black were well-controlled and had extraordinary skills. They should have received systematic training. At that time, he was protecting Ji Wuying and Zhou
Zhou Bujie, the eldest son of the royal family, escaped, concentrated his energy, stabbed two swords in succession, and killed two people. Shortly afterwards, a woman appeared and ordered all the men in black to evacuate, taking the two corpses with her when she left.
"
How could the two of them still not understand when they heard this? After combining the two people's stories and splicing them together, the matter suddenly became clear.
"Check that woman! Check from the staff of the Jinsi and Jinyiwei!"
The old monk Iron Arrow said this directly
The old man nodded. He originally thought this matter was strange. Today, after the old monk Iron Arrow came to complain, he was sure that someone behind the matter was deliberately manipulating the layout of the whole thing.
"How about the two of us go and meet Ji Wuying?"
After the two looked at each other, they nodded to each other.
Yes, there were two witnesses to this incident. Ji Wuying was a member of the royal family and had experienced many battles. Naturally, he noticed many details that Kumu had not noticed at that time.
