With the destruction of the sword array, the heroes of Baidao finally managed to stop the first round of offensive in Taihang Sword Village and drove the incoming swordsmen out of the wall.

"The two of you are indeed worthy of being the twin jades of the Tianshan Mountains. Your swordsmanship is so strong that you are very admirable." Suddenly, Mei Qinglian's clear and sweet voice sounded from behind everyone.

"Sect Master Mei is over the top." Gu Nianfeng saluted her thoughtfully, with a calm posture.

Even Qingyan, like Gu Nianfeng, is also a gift.

"Why is Brother Lian so estranged? You and I have been friends for many years. Although I became the head of the Guanzhong Sword Sect, I am still the woman whose life was saved by you back then." Mei Qinglian gave him a deep look, said softly.

Hearing her words, Lian Qingyan only felt numb all over, her face turned blue and red, not knowing what to do.

As soon as Gu Nianfeng heard what Mei Qinglian said, and then looked at that school of shyness, he already had some understanding of the relationship between the two.

"Ahem, Master Mei, now that the Taihang Village is out of the ordinary, it's unstoppable, why don't we talk about the business first." Lian Qingyan said hastily.

"Okay, let me get straight to the point. This time the 36 knives in the Taihang Village are approaching Guanzhong. Its power is extremely sharp. Especially Ke Yanyue, the master of the 36 knives hall, is invincible with a Yanyue knife, and no one in the world can stop him. If he strikes in anger, this Zhongnan Mountain will surely be stained red with blood." Mei Qinglian said in a deep voice, her expression restrained.

Gu Nianfeng agreed and said: "The only ones attacking the punishment hall are the pawns of Taihang Mountain. The real masters are still waiting and watching, silently calculating the timing of their strikes. Taihang 36 knives each have their own unique skills, and everyone's knives are in constant competition with the Central Plains martial arts It was refined in bloody battles. As long as they make a move, we will suffer heavy casualties."

"What should we do?" Lian Qingyan asked with a heavy heart.

"There is only one person in the world who can save us." Mei Qinglian said in a deep voice.

"I want to remind Sect Leader Mei," Zheng Dongting felt chills for no reason when he heard her tone, "My master, Mu Tianhou, has passed away."

"Yes, yes." Zu Beiqiu nodded repeatedly.

Gu Nianfeng said thoughtfully: "There is only one other person in the world who can compete with Ke Yanyue, besides Mr. Mu."

"Gu Daxia is right, there is another one." Mei Qinglian looked at Zheng and Zu with a wry smile, "That is the world's number one hero 'Qinghu' Peng Qiuzui."

"Hero Peng!" Everyone subconsciously said in unison, as if they just remembered that there is a hero who wrote countless legends in the Central Plains.

"Hero Peng...the old man has been missing for the past 20 years, so it may not be easy to find him." Lian Qingyan frowned.

"I want Zheng Butou and Brother Lian to go out and look for his old man. Hero Peng is from the Peng family of Qingzhou, and he was a friend of the owner of the Xiao family in Chang'an. Both places are very close to Guanzhong. If you want to inquire about him, you should Let's start with these two places first. Hero Peng is born with a chivalrous heart, if he hears that Guanzhong is in trouble, he will definitely come to rescue him from a long distance." Mei Qinglian said calmly.

Lian Qingyan shook her head: "Master Mei..."

"Call me Qinglian." Mei Qinglian interrupted him abruptly

Looking at it like that, she probably didn't know that Lian Qingyan was a woman, so she fell in love with Lian Qingyan who was dressed like a man.

"Uh, Qinglian, Guanzhong Torture Hall is in danger at this moment. I have considerable strength and can support the battle at critical moments. With us here, friends here will be safer." The master took a look and smiled warmly.

"This... Could it be that Zheng Butou broke out from the thousands of troops in Taihang Mountain alone?" Mei Qinglian frowned in embarrassment.

"Heh..." Gu Nianfeng suddenly said unhurriedly, "Junior Brother Lian's swordsmanship is superb, and it is very intimidating to the Taihang Mountain bandits. Since this is the case, it is better to leave the breaking out of the siege to my subordinates."

"This...Senior Brother Gu...you..." Lian Qingyan looked at Gu Nianfeng in embarrassment. The world said that there are two jades in the Tianshan Mountains, and the Yuexia is always ahead of the Yuxia. I am weak.Gu Nianfeng's combat power is also very important.

Gu Nianfeng smiled slightly: "Junior Brother Lian, although my martial arts are not weak, they can't play a role in turning the situation around. In this case, why don't you let me break out and go find Hero Peng."

Lian Qingyan finally nodded and agreed to the arrangement: "Then I will trouble Senior Brother Gu and Brother Zheng..."

Zheng Dongting has not expressed his opinion from the beginning to the end, and the matter is settled...

They dispersed to prepare for the breakout.

It was only at this time that Zheng Dongting said in a low voice: "I can break through by myself..."

Gu Nianfeng chuckled, his gentle eyes and slightly raised lips, in this chaotic battlefield, still showed his elegance, arrogance and indifference, even when he looked at a person indifferently, he would give that person The feeling of tender gaze.

"Aren't you still injured?"

Zheng Dongting was stunned for a moment, his heartbeat seemed to miss a beat, and he seemed to have caught some precious treasure in an instant.

"You..." Zheng Dongting moved his lips, wanting to say something, but he still gave up, even if it was fake, as long as there is a little sincerity, he will finally touch the warmth brought by the truth.

He said to himself, Zheng Dongting, don't be greedy anymore, if you are greedy again, you may not even be able to hold this point in your hands.

The fierce fighting continued until the third watch of the night, and Taihang Shanzhai finally withdrew from the Guanzhong Torture Hall after losing several generals in 36 knives.And the seven factions, eight families, five major gangs, and the rare fighters who can fight have also decreased by [-]%, and the two sides are evenly matched.

At this time, Gu Nianfeng and Zheng Dongting started their preparations to break out by night.

At this moment, a deep voice sounded from behind: "Brother Gu, can you take a step to speak?"

Gu Nianfeng turned his head to look, but saw Lian Qingyan standing weakly beside an old locust tree in Guanzhong.He put back on his moon white clothes, which were like the signature of a knight-errant, but at this moment, the clothes had been stained dark red by blood.

"Junior Brother Lian, are you...?" Gu Nianfeng asked with concern when he saw Lian Qingyan's appearance.The face is full of kung fu, and the acting skills are definitely first-class.

Lian Qingyan shook her head slightly, took a deep look at him, opened her mouth, but said nothing.

"Brother Lian, I'll go over there to have a look, you guys talk slowly." Zheng Dongting consciously stepped aside and retreated away.

Lian Qingyan pondered for a long time, and finally said: "Brother Gu, now that Taihang Mountain is about to attack, life or death tomorrow is uncertain. There is one thing that has always been on my mind. If I die in Guanzhong tomorrow, it will become a I express my regret. Brother, do you still remember the story I told? If I die in the future, but you survived, I hope you can find the person who saved me back then for me. There are a few words, I I've always wanted to tell him." When he said this, there was a trace of deep affection in his eyes.

"Junior Brother Lian... No, Junior Sister Lian, you are talking about the boy who saved you in Bingzhou ten years ago?" Gu Nianfeng asked, "You want me to help you find the person who saved you in Bingzhou, and tell him something Now you can tell me what you want to say. I promise, I will do my best to find him and tell him."

Lian Qingyan smiled gratefully at him, took a deep breath, and said in a low voice: "Tell him: ten years ago, you once saved a little girl, and he told her, we are chivalrous, I won’t tell you about your family background. In the end, the little girl grew up, and she wanted to be as heroic as the big brother back then, so that she could meet her again one day. Ten years later, the little girl is still looking for She kept telling her about the day she died." At this point, Lian Qingyan showed a bleak wry smile on her face, sighed softly, raised her head and continued, "Senior Brother Gu, tell her: I hope you Be a chivalrous hero, at least leave your name. Otherwise, in the future, I don’t know how many girls will repeat the tragedy of that little girl.”

Gu Nianfeng fell silent, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Brother Gu must be laughing at me for being stupid. What I think about at the moment of life and death is not to eliminate harm for the people, but to love these children." Lian Qingyan turned her head and said softly.

"It's okay, children love each other, sometimes, that's just how it is, you can't help it." Gu Nianfeng comforted softly.

"I know..." Lian Qingyan hesitated, "I know that Dad has been trying to match us up, but..."

Gu Nianfeng shook his head: "Junior Sister Lian, there is no need to mention this again. If you have someone you care about, so do I."

When Gu Nianfeng said this, he paused, then sighed again, as if he was very embarrassed.

Gu Nianfeng's acting skills made Lian Qingyan curious, and she couldn't help asking: "I don't know what kind of woman senior brother misses like."

Gu Nianfeng waited for her question.

He smiled bitterly at the moment, but in fact the bitterness was a third of the truth, he murmured: "Looking eastward, thinking of the rapids, and rushing against the wind."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Lian Qingyan's reaction, he turned around and left in the direction Zheng Dongting retreated from.

Since the heartbeat can't be stopped, then make good use of this heartbeat.It can't be that you can't get any benefits~ Lian Qingyan... don't die in the hands of this Taihang Mountain lineage, or I will waste my expression in vain.

At the beginning, Mei Qinglian's people rescued Zheng Dongting and Lian Qingyan through the tunnel, but now they have to use the tunnel to walk for a while.

At the corner of the west wall of the punishment hall dungeon, Mei Qinglian pointed to a hole at the base of the wall, and said, "Now the east, south and north sides have been blocked by the masters of Taihang Mountain, but there are not many ambushes on the west road. If you go out from this cave, go straight and do not turn. After a while, you will be able to go out from a gentle slope at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain. If you are lucky and do not disturb the people of Taihang Mountain, you will immediately cross Zhongnan Mountain overnight and escape from the back mountain. After that, it is better to go to Chang’an first. Go to Qingzhou first, I ask you to decide for yourself."

"Okay, don't worry, Master Mei, we'll be back within seven days at the most, please be careful!" Zheng Dongting said.

"Stop talking, let's go."

"Master Mei, farewell!" Gu Nianfeng clasped his fists and walked into the tunnel.

The tunnel was deep and long, and Zheng Dongting was holding a torch behind him.The bright light of the torch only illuminates five feet in front of and behind him, and the rest of the space is pitch black.

There were only the two of them on the long road, Zheng Dongting almost forgot their purpose, and just wanted to keep walking like this.

Suddenly, a faint starlight appeared in front of their eyes.

"It's the end..." Zheng Dongting whispered subconsciously.

The road is still too short.

The torch was extinguished, and for a moment it was plunged into darkness.

The tunnel did not leave the encircled area of ​​the Taihang lineage, and torches should not be used after going out.

Gu Nianfeng's eyes got used to the darkness a little bit before he said to Zheng Dongting, "Go out."

The two jumped and jumped out of the hole together.

Zheng Dongting knew it was not good as soon as he hit the ground.

In front of me is a trench stretching from north to south, more than two miles long and several feet deep. This kind of trench is usually dug along the city wall by the guarding troops in the city to prevent the besiegers from digging tunnels into the city. To prevent the enemies trapped in the city from digging tunnels to escape, the effect is also good.Seeing that the trench is made of new soil, it must have been dug just now.

"Nianfeng, let's go!" Just as Zheng Dongting said, there was a sound of rustling soil layers in all directions, and a net was raised high under the ground where he and Gu Nianfeng were standing, covering his head and face. The people were wrapped in groups, and then they were lifted high into the air under the pull of several thick cables.

"Someone broke into the camp!"

"Someone is digging a tunnel!"

"Those respectable cowards are leaving!"

Hundreds of Taihang swordsmen in linen and linen trousers holding red tassel long knives raised their torches and surrounded the giant net, looking up at Zheng Dongting and Gu Nianfeng in the net.

"Ha, Second Brother Ji has a clever plan. These idiots from famous families really want to run through the tunnel." In the bright light of torches, Gan Dayu, the fifth sword of the Taihang "Lei Gong", stood to the west of the ditch with the Bachiguan knife on his shoulder. On a high slope formed by fresh soil.

Beside him are "Fierce Horse Knife" Song Cuiyun, "Panlong Sword" Gong Lianbi, "Luoyan Sword" Ning Wuhui, "Glae Wind Sword" Pu Wanshan, "Lightning Killing Sword" Chi Bin and other famous Taihang Mountain swordsmen. Emerging from the darkness in the due west, the road leading to Zhongnan Mountain was completely blocked.

"Brother Gan, should we hang them here and chop them up alive, or should we pour oil on the fire and light a sky lantern?" Song Cuiyun asked excitedly.

"What's the trouble? Come, knock on the clapper. Let the arrow go! Shoot his grandma." Gan Dayu waved his hand and said carelessly.

Just when the rain of arrows was about to fall on them, several sword shadows shot up into the sky as if through clouds and lightning, followed by the sound of firecracker-like ropes breaking.

Gu Nianfeng put his feet on the ground, leaped in the wind, and flew a full eight feet away, dodging the second wave of arrows without time.

Zheng Dongting's lightness kung fu is also good, as graceful as a frightened bird, he dodges with Gu Nianfeng.

"Chasing!" Gan Dayu yelled, Guan Dao spread out, and was the first to rush out. Behind him, Song Cuiyun, Gong Lianbi, Chi Bin, Ning Wuhui, Pu Wanshan, Che Zhanhao and others all set off one after another. Xing followed closely behind Gu Nianfeng and Zheng Dongting.

Gu Nianfeng and Zheng Dongting rushed towards Liangzhou.Gradually, the Taihang group of bandits who were chasing after him disappeared without a trace.

"Finally let go..." Zheng Dongting heaved a sigh of relief.

Gu Nianfeng suddenly said, "You were just... over there, what did you call me?"

"Uh..." Zheng Dongting suddenly remembered that he had spoken quickly just now, and seemed to call him "Nianfeng"...

"I didn't call you, you misheard." Zheng Dongting immediately denied.

Gu Nianfeng looked at Zheng Dongting and said with a smile, "Don't lie to me."

"..."

"I allow you to call me that." Gu Nianfeng said unhurriedly, "Okay, get ready to fight the enemy!"

"Ah? You...wait..." Zheng Dongting wanted to ask again.

"Where are Gu Nianfeng and Zheng Dongting going! This is where you are buried!" A thin voice suddenly came.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a long howling sound, and more than a hundred Taihang swordsmen suddenly appeared from the horizon in all directions at the same time, forming a perfect circle with the two of them as the core.

Gu Nianfeng looked up and saw that the more than a hundred Taihang swordsmen were all calm and steady, with lightning-like eyes, which showed their profound skills.

"Who's here?" Gu Nianfeng said loudly.

"'Judge' don't meet each other!" The Taihang knife array lined up neatly in front of the two suddenly opened a hole.A dwarf-like Han Shu walked out of the formation swaggeringly, with his arms folded on his chest, and a pair of mandarin ducks and double knives were held behind his back and hidden under his elbows.

"The third knife of Taihang." Zheng Dongting said in a deep voice.

"My great king and second brother Ji already thought that you would flee to Liangzhou first, and my brother who broke into the palace camp and I have been waiting here for a long time." Mo Xiangjian sneered coldly and said sharply.

Gu Nianfeng's expression did not change, and there was still a faint gentle smile on his face, a gentle gentleman.

It's a self-assured sense of control.

Zheng Dongting was a little nervous in the face of so many powerful enemies, but seeing Gu Nianfeng's performance, he couldn't help but feel relieved.

However, what he never expected was that Gu Nianfeng didn't draw his sword, but...

"Acupressure...fixation technique." Zheng Dongting stared at the motionless group of people in front of him in a daze.

Gu Nianfeng's lightness kung fu technique is superior to Zu Beiqiu's, and the use of acupoints to fix the body is also more straightforward than Zu Beiqiu's.

but……

"You...how could..." Zheng Dongting was stunned.He thought that he had gotten a glimpse of some of Gu Nianfeng's secrets, but...he only knew it now, and he still didn't know anything.

At this moment, there was a sound of wind in the skirts of the clothes, "Thunder God" Gan Dayu, "Splitting Horse Crazy Sword" Song Cuiyun, "Panlong Sword" Gong Lianbi, "Luoyan Sword" Ning Wuhui, "Glee Wind Sword" "Pu Wanshan, "Lightning Killing Knife" Chi Bin and other members of the 36-knife team arrived one after another and surrounded Zheng Dongting and Zu.Immediately afterwards, people shouted and neighed like a sea tide, and the Taihang cavalry team, flying knife team, archers, and a large number of ordinary Taihang swordsmen with shields and steel knives also rushed over. The outer three layers are tightly surrounded.

Gan Dayu directly raised the knife and started again.

Gu Nianfeng's fingers seemed to have magical properties, he turned sideways slightly, and tapped a series of four acupoints on Gan Dayu's chest, Shenfeng, Bulang, Tianchi, and Qimen.Gan Dayu didn't understand what was going on, his blood vessels had been frozen, and his whole body was nailed in place like a wooden sculpture made of clay.

"Okay you..." Song Cuiyun saw Gu Nianfeng's hand, and was about to raise his knife to chop it, but Mu Tianhou's acupressure and body fixation technique was shot at such a tricky angle, there were several more on the ground between his fingers stone statue.

Zheng Dongting can't care so much anymore, why Gu Nianfeng knows Mu Tianhou's unique martial arts, he can't figure it out for a while now, so let's not think about it.

"I'm going to attract their attention. You just need to click on the acupuncture points. We'll spend the time with them. Look, how many stone statues we've transformed!" Zheng Dongting said fiercely.

The Taihang swordsmen outside the circle seemed to have an unspeakable fear towards these two people. Although they were still screaming loudly to kill, no one dared to step forward again at this moment.

"The northwest is the stem, the stem is the sky formation, the outer side is the inner circle, and the four sides are the wind, the master of the formation, and the leader of the soldiers." While they were standing still, Gu Nianfeng suddenly pointed to a place and said, "Move Come here personally."

Zheng Dongting put another swordsman's body in the corner designated by Gu Nianfeng, looked at Gu Nianfeng strangely, but didn't ask.

"Go ahead and lure them in."

"Okay." Zheng Dongting carried Gan Dayu and raised his voice: "The rats of Taihang Mountain, if you have the ability, come and snatch your fifth brother Gan!"

"Zheng Dongting, don't go crazy!" Gong Lianbi from outside the circle roared into the sky, following the shout, dozens of trespassers mixed with hundreds of sword shields followed him and killed him.

"Follow me!" Gu Nianfeng led Zheng Dongting around in a circle, leading the group of Taihang swordsmen towards the south.

Some of this group of swordsmen had a very good sense of direction, and they rushed out of the Northwest Heavenly Covering Formation with ease, while others had a poor sense of direction, and came late after circling in the formation for a long time.

When most of the people turned out from the formation, Que found that the group of swordsmen who had rushed to the southwest had been acupointed one by one. They stood in a patchwork pattern in the southwest corner, and everyone was furious but motionless.

Someone shouted in panic from the east, west, north and south at the same time.

"What are you arguing about, am I not here?" Gong Lianbi roared irritably.

He circled three times in a row in the middle, and finally said loudly: "Listen to me, push everyone down! Do you hear me? Push them all down!" But his order did not receive any response.

"Where are you? Didn't you hear what I said?" Gong Lianbi yelled with fear, "You... have all been tricked? Say something!"

There was still no echo, and the surroundings fell into a dead silence.

"The northwest is the dry land, and the dry is the sky array. The southwest is the Kun land, and the Kun is the earth array. The southeast is the Xunju, and the Xun is the wind array. The northeast is the Genju, and the Gen is the mountain, and the mountains and rivers come out. Clouds are cloud formations. In this way, the four main formations of heaven, earth, wind and cloud have been set up, and half of the four strange formations of dragons, tigers, birds and snakes have been set up. Adding these should be enough." Gu Nianfeng pointed at Gong Lianbi and said, "He should be placed in the Zhengbei Bird Flying Formation."

Gong Lianbi suddenly felt a pain in his back, and the blood in his whole body stood still for a moment.Immediately afterwards, a big hand hugged him from his waist and clamped him under his armpit.He raised his eyes and saw that it was Zheng Dongting.

I just felt that Zheng Dongting carried him through several crowds, and came to the north, and then his body was straightened up, and he was placed squarely in the north, facing the stunned "judge" Mo Xiangjian.

Zheng Dongting, who had arranged Gong Lianbi, performed lightness kung fu and quickly retreated to the center of the arena, following the footprints left by him, stood with Gu Nianfeng, and said in a low voice: "The last round is ready."

The thieves in Taihang Mountain were at a loss before the eight formations, "So what's the trouble? Push them all, what's the matter, can they still block our brothers?" Pu Wanshan, the Taihang No. 11 knife "Gefeng Knife", said in a rough tone.He raised his hand and said loudly, "Everyone follow me."

Under his leadership, more than a hundred palace breakers, hundreds of swordsmen, and 36 sword masters lined up side by side in a circle and approached the eight living people cautiously.This group of Taihang bandits usually robbed houses and ransacked altars and fortified villages. All of them had experienced many battles and had always had good courage, but now they became extremely suspicious.

Watching the eight formations of living people from a distance will make you feel better. Once you get close to this magical formation of living people, you will see the comrades who fought side by side in the past glaring, grinning and staring at you. The impermanent hell monsters are waiting to capture themselves to go to the underworld, making the Taihang bandits all creepy.

They hesitated and stretched out their hands, and lightly pushed Song Cuiyun's chest. With a bang, Song Cuiyun's body fell heavily on the ground.

Just at this very moment.Amidst the turbulent wind and clouds, the Taihang bandits raised their eyes and looked at the eight formations of living people in front of them. They saw ghosts surging in the formation, ghost soldiers wandering around, flying sand and rocks, evil wind blowing wildly, and the evil spirit rushed straight to Xiaohan.Those Taihang brothers whose acupoints had been tapped seemed to be possessed by ghosts at the moment, and they were neatly changing a series of subtle and mysterious formations in the wind and cloud, each with a long knife and charging towards everyone wave after wave.

"There... There is a ghost!" Someone screamed in the sword and shield in the outer ring, dropped the shield steel sword in his hand with a clatter, turned around and ran away.

"Shoot arrows, fly knives! We are surrounded!" Several little bosses shouted like crazy.As soon as their words fell, the overwhelming rain of arrows and flying knives had already poured down on the living people.Gan Dayu and Song Cuiyun in the front row were shot into a sieve by the rain of arrows in the sky, and dozens of Taihang swordsmen died with them.

"Don't shoot arrows, don't throw flying knives! This is an illusion! Illusion!" Ning Wuhui shouted loudly, but no one could hear him.After the archers and the flying knife team fired a round of bows and arrows and flying knives, they couldn't see any ghost soldiers being shot to death by themselves, and they were even more frightened.

Zheng Dongting took a closer look: swords, shields, bows and arrows were scattered all over the place around the eight formations of living people, and the Taihang swordsmen were scrambling to escape to the north.

"The Taihang bandits' folk songs are sung resoundingly all over the sky, and the eight formations scare them into mothers, haha, what a disgrace." Zheng Dongting applauded with a smile.

After a while, the Taihang bandit with the slowest legs had already run far away, and the surroundings gradually fell into a deathly silence.

Zheng Dongting took a long breath: "It's finally all right."
