Xu Mu, who was not good at light kung fu, fell asleep waiting on the boat. Only when bursts of exclamations rang out from the hazy river bank not far away did he stand up in shock.
tread.
In the blink of an eye, the cold-legged Zhuge Fan suddenly penetrated the river fog, and landed firmly on the boat with the two sleeping children between his legs.
The long sword that had not been sheathed was still stained with blood, and the expression of anger on his face remained for a long time.
Xu Mu hurriedly stood up and helped carry the two children down.
"Senior, did you win the battle?"
"Nonsense, my handsome young man's nickname was given to me for nothing!"
Xu Muqian laughed, lowered his head, and his face became astringent.
Now it can be confirmed that Zhuge Fan is really an old man with cold legs. After being touched by the river water, his right leg was so painful that he could not touch the ground. He replaced it with a long sword, which, in conjunction with his left foot, was firmly planted on the bow of the boat.
Even with his thin back, Xu Mu once felt extremely tall.
"Senior, are you okay?"
"nothing……"
Zhuge Fan turned around, his face was extremely distorted with pain, and tears burst out from time to time between his brows and eyes.
"Uh...Senior, let me bake it for you."
After striking a flint, he found a broken can and lit the torn strip of cloth. After a while, Zhuge Fan's face was twisted in pain before he began to feel comfortable.
"Senior, these two children cannot be sent back to Tangjiang."
"Of course it can't be done."
The children collected by the old temple people were originally used to sacrifice the river mother. Now they are rescued by Zhuge Fan and sent back to Tangjiang City. They will only be regarded as disaster stars.
"I'll take them away."
Zhuge Fan did not hesitate. He probably had already thought out his escape plan when he acted chivalrously and righteously.
"My dear boss, do you know how long this Jijiang is?"
Xu Mu was startled. A three-year-old child in Tangjiang City could blurt out such a question.
"About eight thousand miles."
"Then let me ask my little boss, how many human sacrifices and how many bought children should there be in Jijiang, which is eight thousand miles away."
Xu Mu's mind was buzzing, and he felt an uncomfortable tightness in his chest.
A glimpse of one spot reveals the whole leopard.
The dim light of the twilight scene of the Great Era looks like a dying old man, half buried in the loess, as if there is really no way to save him.
"When you get to the deserted ferry over there, go back to the village. Those old temple people have been killed, so no one should know that you have been there."
Zhuge Fan rarely sounded kinder and looked directly at Xu Mu.
"If not, will you follow me and become a hero?"
"I won't go." Xu Mu shook his head.
There are still more than forty villagers in Xujiazhuang, waiting for his little boss to return.
"I know you have great justice in your heart." Zhuge Fan sighed.
"But I also have a family."
Standing on the bow of the boat, Zhuge Fan smiled and said, "Although I don't know why, I can guess that in this life, you will not be a passerby."
Passers-by, people on the road, do not participate in it.
Xu Mu's face was silent, and he didn't know how to answer for a moment.
"Get up, you and I are in the same boat, and you helped me roast my legs."
Zhuge Fan rubbed his hands and said, "I have no money to give you, so I will teach you three sword skills. Of course, with your foundation, you can't even think of becoming a master for the time being."
"Aimed to save lives."
Xu Mu was instantly ecstatic. The old knight in front of him was a master who could fly into the sky and escape from the earth. Even if he learned three moves or two, he would benefit a lot.
In a hurry, Xu Mu hurriedly took off the sword from his waist, but it got stuck on his belt. It took him a while to pick it off.
Zhuge Fan was speechless for a while.
"My dear boss, do you know what a sword is?"
"The king of hundreds of soldiers?" After searching his belly, Xu Mu remembered such a word.
"Who taught you this! What kind of bullshit is the king of hundreds of soldiers? You are going to kill people with your sword, and you still talk about the conduct of a gentleman!"
"Look at the forum..."
"What kind of post? Ouch, my pretty young man has lived a life of carefreeness, how could he be so unlearned and unskilled like you?"
Xu Mu swallowed his saliva, and now he didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore.
"A sword is a deceptive weapon. It's not like a knife, it only knows how to chop horizontally and vertically, and it's not like a stick, it's every inch longer and stronger. For example -"
Zhuge Fan thrust his long sword towards Xu Mu. Although it was not unsheathed, there was a faint and intense pressure from the thrust.
"Come and block!"
Xu Mu gritted his teeth and pushed the long sword away, trying to swing it away.
Unexpectedly, Zhuge Fan chuckled, and the long sword in his hand suddenly pressed down and stabbed Xu Mu in the ribs.
A slight tingling sensation spread all over the body in an instant.
"If it's a knife, the force will be heavy and it's not advisable to change the direction. Do you understand? When we play with swords, we are talking about a lie."
"I wanted to pick you, but I drew my sword, so I picked you with a stab instead."
"Of course, don't even think about playing like this with a master. There are too many flaws and you can see through them at a glance."
"Hum! I'm telling you, my little boss, this, but you don't understand."
"Senior...I understand."
Xu Mu's eyes were filled with ecstasy, and he was even glad that he had chosen a sword instead of an ax or a stick at the official workshop in Wangzhou City.
"So awesome? He is a martial arts genius!" Zhuge Fan pursed his lips, raised his head and looked into the distance. He was getting closer and closer to the deserted small ferry.
"Just wait and see, I'll teach you three moves."
At the bow of the ship.
Zhuge Fan stood solemnly, the long sword in his hand vibrating faintly as if it had a resonance.
"The first move! Move thousands of mountains!"
He stood up with his arms folded, Zhuge Fan turned his wrist, and the long sword suddenly unsheathed, flying forward and sweeping away. A large curtain of water was instantly lifted up on the river behind the bow, and it paused for a while in mid-air.
Time, clattering, fell into the river again.
Make a circle of ripples.
"This style is suitable for surprise."
Just as Xu Mu was about to behave, Zhuge Fan stopped him.
"You are in such a hurry! Read it first, and then practice it after you understand it."
Xu Mu hurriedly calmed down and continued to observe.
"Second form, around three stabs."
"When attacking, you can change your moves for one round with your wrist, and you can change your moves for one round when you change your hand, plus the first round of stabbing. With your half-dead body, there are three opportunities for you to change your moves."
Zhuge Fan held up his long sword and stabbed Xu Mu coldly. In the blink of an eye, he tapped Xu Mu's ribs, chest, and forehead.
"Let's practice this style for ten or eight years first. The road is simple and the sword is deceitful. If you use it well, you will be able to master it easily."
Zhuge Fan was still as rude as ever. Xu Mu felt like a goose and helplessly clapped and cheered.
At this time, the boat was less than a hundred steps away from the ferry. The two children in the stern also made a slight cough.
"The third form... draw your sword."
Zhuge Fan also drew his sword at the same time, but stuck the sword blade directly on the board of the ship, and waved to Xu Mu.
Xu Mu's face darkened, he took out his sword and stabbed towards Zhuge Fan.
Zhuge Fan remained motionless, with a slight smile on his lips. He looked at the tip of the sword and was about to pierce his chest——
Xu Mu looked shocked, but he wanted to stop, but it was too late.
Swish.
The long sword was pushed forward, and with Zhuge Fan's avoidance, it was pushed straight into an empty scabbard. Nowhere in the forums in the world have I seen such sword moves.
The sword I stabbed out has entered your sheath?
"So, this is fraud."
Zhuge Fan smiled slightly, stretched his fingers forward, and tapped Xu Mu's head again.
"I haven't thought of a name yet... let's just call the old dog back into the cage."
Picking up the two children, Zhuge Fan dragged Lao Han's legs and rushed to the ferry on the shore in a blink of an eye.
"My little boss, since you have great righteousness in your heart, you must never just be a passerby in this life."
"You are not like a passerby. There is compassion in your eyes, compassion for the world."
Xu Mu stood on the boat, solemnly clasping his fists and remaining motionless for a long time.
River boat crossing.
An unknown water bird landed on the bow of the boat. It took about half a stick of incense to follow Xu Mu's turning movement, and it flapping its wings in fright.
