In the Blade

Although he had some doubts in his heart, Cui Yuan decided to believe his master's words.

After all, the master is not wrong. He has realized this deeply since he was a child. The master is so powerful and great, just like the omnipotent immortal in the legend - although when he grows up, he He also knew that it was just a normal behavior of a capable adult.

But he knew better that not everyone would be willing to raise an orphaned horse thief.

So since the master wants him to give the strong man who uses the fire blade a blow, then he can just do it. After all, he has been practicing for so many years just to be able to catch up with the master and stand beside him. Isn't it?

"Done!"

Cui Yuan made a decision.

Then he started scratching his head.

Gan has decided to do it, but how to do it is a big problem - although with his body skills, he can move freely in Yanzhou City under the night, but if he wants to use his own strength to have ten Looking for one person in Yanzhou City, which has a population of more than 10,000, is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.

What's more, it's hard to say whether the other party is in the city or not. After all, when Yanzhou City calculates its population, even the villages outside the city are included.

And the most troublesome thing is that he is still wanted.

When he was in Jibei, he was notoriously unpopular. After all, he often found people to duel with and practice swordsmanship, often involving life and death fights. Therefore, the rangers and swordsmen in Jibei were quite disgusted with him, and even rallied for a time. People prepared to kill him - of course, he succeeded in killing him in the end, which made his popularity even worse.

But now, because of his previous training on the "Sword of Immortality", these swordsmen and rangers who had objections to him were driven to Yanzhou by him. So under the propaganda of these enemies, he was in Yanzhou Simply put a bounty on it.

Ten kilograms of gold, this price is too outrageous. Now those brave people in Yanzhou City are going crazy for this price. As long as he dares to reveal his traces in the city, he will be greeted by an overwhelming and endless pursuit.

That way he wouldn't be able to find anything, and he wouldn't be able to fulfill his master's instructions.

So after thinking about it, Cui Yuan, who was alone, could only choose to ask for help and go to the most popular person around him.

After all, the other party seems to be quite easy to talk to.

"What? You want me to help you find someone?"

Du Chengfeng, who had just returned to the house after a busy day, was stunned by Cui Yuan's question.

"I can indeed ask the predators for help and send out some hunting documents... But who are you going to find? At least give me some characteristics."

"In terms of characteristics...he will use a fire blade."

Cui Yuan gave a rough description.

"A knife on fire can extend the blade very far. The specific operating principle should be similar to the sword light below... What's wrong with you?"

"I……"

Du Chengfeng also started scratching his head.

The fire blade can extend the blade very far, and the specific operating principle is somewhat similar to the sword light... Why does this sound more and more like it is talking about him?

"Do you think this is it?"

Du Chengfeng thought for a moment, then took out the thick knife from his saddle bag and waved it.

The blazing pillar of fire lit up the night sky, which was quite beautiful, which amazed the two gatekeepers who were packing their luggage in the yard.

At this time, Cui Yuan's hand touched the hilt of the sword.

"Let's duel."

"……ah?"

Du Chengfeng couldn't react for a moment.

Didn't you say you were looking for someone? Why is it involved in a duel again?

"Master is indeed right. Your flaming blade is much stronger than my sword... If you want to continue on the path of swordsmanship, I must climb this high mountain of yours!"

No matter how difficult the process is.

It wasn't until he faced the blazing blade in person that Cui Yuan realized how huge the gap between him and Du Chengfeng was - it was no longer facing the mountain, but the people at the foot of the mountain, looking up. The peak above the clouds!

Therefore, we must fight.

You must fight, you must prove your swordsmanship.

Otherwise, his sword might be stuck here for the rest of his life.

"Are you getting sick again?"

Seeing that Cui Yuan had put his hand on the hilt of the sword, Du Chengfeng had already noticed the seriousness of this swordsman.

Although he still didn't understand how this bloody fight started, it was obvious that this duel was inevitable!

The familiar feeling of excitement came again, even accompanied by a certain hunger.

"Then come."

Under the guidance of his body, he completely handed over his arms to the knife.

The blazing flaming blade was held high in the air. Du Chengfeng carefully observed Cui Yuan in front of him, judging the timing of his attack and the direction of his sword - and Cui Yuan, who was holding the hilt of the sword, had already drawn it out. Broken Sword walked towards him.

Three steps.

Two steps.

step.

"...What are you doing?"

Seeing that the flat-headed broken sword in Cui Yuan's hand was pointing at his stomach first, and then at his chest, abdomen and throat, Du Chengfeng, who was holding the sword high, couldn't help but fall into confusion.

"Do you still want to fight?"

"The fight is over."

Cui Yuan sheathed his sword and returned it to its sheath.

"You're already dead."

"Varied……"

Du Chengfeng was so stunned that he couldn't speak for a long time.

After a long time, he put down the sword in his hand and touched the places on his body where the broken sword had stabbed him.

Well, there really wasn’t a single wound.

So what is Cui Yuan talking about? Why is the fight over? Just open your mouth and beat him to death?

"This is the principle of the non-killing sword."

As if he had finally defeated some powerful enemy, Cui Yuan had completely relaxed at this moment.

"When I completely gave up my intention to kill you, you no longer had the feeling to continue fighting with me... This is the time when I am not fighting, but when I am closest to victory."

At this moment, Cui Yuan looked calm, as if he had entered some magical realm that ordinary people could not understand.

"This is the true ultimate realm of swordsmanship. It doesn't depend on technique or strength. Victory or defeat depends on one mind."

"What you're talking about is... yo."

Du Chengfeng was about to say something, but he remembered something.

That is, this Cui Yuan can pierce the sword with a broken sword.

If it were just a broken sword, it would really not be able to hurt him, but if the sword light was added, he would have been poked out three holes just now - if you think about it this way, this is the "way of not killing" that Cui Yuan understood It's really amazing. Even though Cui Yuan has finished a whole set of attacks, his perception still only feels that this is nonsense that can't hurt him.

"Then you really won!"

Du Chengfeng couldn't help but nodded repeatedly.

Although I don't know what weird way Cui Yuan used to deceive him of the danger, there is no doubt that this has convinced him to lose.

"I knew it! This sword is endless!"

Saying this, the excited Cui Yuan raised his hand and raised his sword, and the five-foot sword pointed directly at the sky!

"Zheng——"

It was at this time that the sword in Du Chengfeng's hand subconsciously blocked the sword.

"Bang!"

The invisible sword light shattered.

…

"You kill me."

Cui Yuandeng immediately knelt on the ground, pulled his neck and killed him.

"This sword of immortality was actually broken by your sword. As expected, the sword below is still not good. This sword..."

Then there were a lot of words that Du Chengfeng didn't understand, such as fifteen years of sword practice, three thousand swords every day, pure sword intent, and the unity of man and sword, etc. Strange words, Du Chengfeng couldn't understand Feng couldn't help but scratch his head.

Communicating with a mentally ill person is indeed a troublesome matter.

"Well, this one doesn't count."

Du Chengfeng thought for a while and decided to let Cui Yuan stand up first.

"Didn't you just win one? Your Immortal Sword is really powerful. At least you can take advantage of it... By the way, did you just say that your master asked you to come to me? Then why don't you ask your master?"

"He won't teach me."

Cui Yuan, who was kneeling on the ground, just shook his head.

"He has serious things to do now and doesn't have time to give me advice..."

Then why didn't you see that I also had business to do?

Du Chengfeng immediately wanted to slap Cui Yuan twice, but after thinking about it, he didn't rush to slap him - venting his anger on a psychopath would drag him down to the level of a psychopath, so he might as well find a better reason to let him go. Get out of here, this psycho.

After all, the things he is facing now are even more troublesome.

"Your master won't give you any guidance, right..."

Thinking of the martial arts novels he had read, Du Chengfeng quickly had an idea in his mind.

"If your master doesn't give you guidance, then go beat him and duel with him. He has seen your moves in actual combat and seen your mistakes and omissions, so he has to give you guidance."

"Is this...appropriate?"

Cui Yuan, who was kneeling on the ground, felt like something was wrong when he heard this.

Although theoretically speaking, it is extremely disrespectful to attack the master, but after thinking about it... this damn method seems to be really feasible?

"But isn't this a bit..."

"You are seeking to learn and ask questions. Your master will forgive you."

Du Chengfeng's words are upright and stern.

"Anyway, you definitely can't beat your master. In the end, it was him who beat you. He beat you, so why would he be angry with you?"

"That seems to be the case!"

After thinking about it for a few times, Cui Yuan thought more and more that this plan was feasible.

What's more, he has fulfilled his master's instructions and given the man holding the fire blade three swords. Although his sword of immortality still has some shortcomings, it has indeed allowed him to surpass the previous fear. The peak of a tiger.

As Master said, this is really part of the practice.

But now, he is successful in practice.

How could his master be unhappy?

"Thank you sir for clarifying my doubts! I'll go back and compete with my master right now!"

"Okay, go quickly."

Du Chengfeng waved his hand, signaling Cui Yuan to get out.

After all, he has more troublesome things to do here.

For example, how to deal with Qi Jinshan, the military commander of Yanzhou.
