Outer History of Martial Arts - One Horseman

The mountains are coming.

A mountain stream meanders down, mixed with apricot and elm beside the stream, Fang Xinqi approached, squatted down and took a handful of water to wash his face, when suddenly he heard a scream like a cat meowing from nowhere .He listened carefully again, and found that it seemed to be a human voice, and it seemed to be a woman's accent.

Suddenly the sound of the wind turned, the sound stopped, but the sound of swords clashing sounded again.Fang Xinqi didn't want to be nosy, but was curious, so he stopped for a moment, and followed the sound to find it.The wind blew from the other side of the cliff. Fang Xinqi walked to the edge of the cliff and looked down. He saw clouds and mist, and couldn't see anything clearly.

The fighting sound also stopped, under the cliff, a woman's accent suddenly tore through the clouds, shouted sharply: "Duanhongzi, how dare you—" but it stopped abruptly.

It turned out that after Liu Yuru and the others took Zhu Qiqi away that day, they turned all the way back to Qinyang in order to find the trace of Huaruixian.The three of them rushed forward eagerly, wishing they could give birth to wings and rush to Qinyang immediately.I heard that there is a shortcut to cross this mountain, which can save half the distance.So the three of them took Zhu Qiqi to climb the mountain, but they were ambushed by gangsters on the edge of the cliff.

The gangster knocked Liu Yuru, Master Tianfa and Duanhongzi off the cliff, and took Zhu Qiqi away.Fortunately, the momentum of the three people's fall was slightly hindered by the vegetation on the cliff, and they fell on a protruding stone platform under the cliff.Master Tianfa was the most seriously injured. He hit a piece of dead wood on the back of his head. He was bleeding from his head and unconscious.Liu Yuru broke his right leg, while Duan Hongzi's arm was scraped to a bloody mess by the mountain rock, but he was the least injured among the three.

This mountain is inaccessible, and Wang Lianhua's servants blocked the mountain path to prevent woodcutters and hunters from passing. When Fang Xinqi found this place, the three of them had been trapped under the cliff for two full days.

There is no food or water under the cliff, Master Tianfa has been in a coma, but it is better.Liu Yuru and Duan Hongzi felt that their days were like years. Fortunately, the past two days had been cloudy and rainy, and some rain could quench their thirst, but the drizzle didn't stop, and the three of them were all pale from the cold, so they had to use their skills to drive out the cold.

Master Tianfa didn't know about his personnel, so Liu Yuru was worried about his safety, so he suggested to Duan Hongzi that they take turns helping Master Tianfa to drive away the cold every day.Duan Hongzi agreed wholeheartedly, but was unable to evade every time.Liu Yuru was dissatisfied in her heart, but she couldn't say anything, she could only do more by herself.

In this way, two days and two nights passed without incident.On this day, Liu Yuru Fang was driving Master Tianfa away from the cold, when she raised her head, she suddenly met Duan Hongzi's gaze.His gaze was like that of a hungry wolf, except for the glinting green light.Liu Yuru shuddered, subconsciously grasped the hilt of the sword, and realized that the opponent was not staring at herself, but at Master Tianfa beside her.She gathered herself together and asked, "Why is the Taoist priest looking at Master Tianfa like this, but what's wrong?"

Duan Hongzi's eyes flashed slightly, he looked back, and laughed hoarsely: "We were trapped here for two days and two nights, and no one would come to rescue us. Although there are vines hanging down nearby, it's a pity that we were all injured, and we are temporarily out." No. You have to wait until your injury is healed, but there is no food here, and when the sun clears, you won’t even be able to drink the rainwater.”

Hearing this, Liu Yuru's haggard face was full of worry, she sighed faintly, and nodded her head in response: "What the Taoist priest said is true...but the matter has come to this point, so I have to endure it. There is no end to the sky. , My aunt's great revenge has not been avenged, and I will never be willing to die here."

Duan Hongzi sneered and said, "Forbearance? How many days can you endure? After forbearance today, what will happen tomorrow? Miss Liu is too optimistic. If this continues, we are just waiting to die!"

Liu Yuru heard that there was something in his words, so she asked, "What does the Taoist priest mean...?"

The ferocious look of a wild beast flashed in Duan Hongzi's eyes again, and he didn't answer, he stood up, holding the long sword in his intact left hand, and walked towards Liu Yuru step by step.

His expression was terrifying, Liu Yuru's heart trembled, she drew her sword in her hand with a clang, and shouted sharply in a hurry: "Stop!... The Taoist priest has something to say, just say it there, Yuru will listen carefully."

Duan Hongzi took another two steps forward, then stopped, the tip of the sword moved towards the place where the unconscious Master Tianfa was, and said with a smile: "If there is food, I can last for a few more days... Now the situation is too difficult. Forced, Buddhists have always given their lives to feed eagles and tigers, and in the future Master Tianfa will not blame you or me even if he has knowledge under the spring."

Liu Yuru stared at him, still a little puzzled.After thinking about it carefully, she suddenly recalled, with a pale face, she said in a trembling voice: "You, you mean... eat... eat..." Her lips were trembling, and the hand holding the long sword couldn't stop trembling. As he spoke, the sword light shone and trembled like water waves, but he couldn't say what he said later.

She couldn't believe how such a cruel proposal came about.She would rather she had heard wrong or thought wrong, but Duan Hongzi in front of her was already smiling slightly, looking at her, and said two words from her lips, "Eating people."

Liu Yuru was covered in cold sweat, her hands were shaking so much that she could hardly hold the hilt of her sword.Seeing Duan Hongzi approaching again, she seemed to see the evil spirits of hell approaching step by step, with the long sword in her hand fluttering, and hissed: "Don't come over - stop! Stop! - don't come over -!!!"

Duan Hongzi was not in a hurry, approached, and said with a smile: "With Master Tianfa, I can last for about half a month. Miss Liu is kind-hearted, and she must be willing to sacrifice herself for others."

Liu Yuru was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that Duan Hongzi not only wanted to eat Master Tianfa, but also wanted to join her... She became more angry, roared, and struggled to stand up on the stone wall regardless of her leg injury. Pointing straight at Duan Hongzi, he cursed, "You bastard!"

Her figure fell into the eyes of Duan Hongzi, and she saw her cheeks flushed due to anger, her chest heaving up and down, and her snow-white clothes were wet due to the rain, sticking tightly to her skin, outlining her slender and flexible waist, straight Slender legs.

This white figure was like two groups of white flames, burning Duan Hongzi's eyes, slowly burning from his eyes into his heart, making the blood in his whole body boil as if being boiled.His eyes were burning brightly, he stared at Liu Yuru, and swept across her neck, shoulders, and chest... Liu Yuru got goosebumps all over her body, couldn't bear it, and stabbed her with a sword.

The light of the sword is like electricity, only listening to the ding ding dong dong.Liu Yuru and Duan Hongzi are equally famous masters, the difference in martial arts is limited.But Duan Hongzi is older than Liu Yuru, and has much more experience in fighting the enemy.Although his right hand is injured, he can only use his left hand to wield the sword, and the sword strokes are rough, but Liu Yuru is also unable to move, and he has to be distracted from looking after Master Tianfa, and Duan Hongzi's moves are insidious. chest.

Liu Yuru was almost at a disadvantage several times, she was not in any danger, but her clothes were ripped apart, she was angry, hated and ashamed, wishing to cut off Duanhongzi immediately by the sword.With the anger in his heart, the move lost his composure, and it hit Duan Hongzi's arms, and was watched for flaws by the other party. As soon as he passed the long sword, the soft green steel sword, like a spirit snake, went straight around her long sword, and touched her wrist. .Liu Yuru only felt a chill in the tiger's mouth, and then a pain in her wrist, unable to hold on anymore, the long sword flew out of her hand and fell down the cliff.

Duan Hongzi didn't wait for her to react, and stabbed Liu Yuru's waist with a sword back, but it didn't hurt anyone. The sword edge picked up her daughter's belt and hooked it, and the belt broke in two and slid softly to the ground.Liu Yuru was startled, her clothes had already slipped to the sides.She looked pale, and hurriedly held down her clothes with her hands. In a panic, she tilted and fell to the ground. Looking at Duan Hongzi, she sternly shouted: "Duan Hongzi, how dare you—"

Duan Hongzi smiled and said, "Look if I dare or not." He raised his sword again, and suddenly heard a voice above his head asking, "The one below is Miss Liu Yuru?"

Startled, he subconsciously looked up.He suddenly felt something wrong, and before he could react, his body lightened suddenly, and it was Liu Yuru who took advantage of his distraction and swooped over with the last bit of strength, knocking him off the stone platform with all his strength.

Unexpectedly, Duan Hongzi fell backward involuntarily, scratching in the air with both hands, and suddenly withdrew Liu Yuru's skirt.Liu Yuru let out a miserable cry, but was dragged by him and fell down the stone platform.

In desperation, Liu Yuru held onto the stone tightly with one hand, and dragged out five sunken scarlet blood marks on the stone platform, and finally stopped the falling trend. A broken rainbow was hanging under her skirt, and the two dangled hanging on the stone platform. tableside.

Duan Hongzi was clinging to her skirt and was about to climb up, Liu Yuru was still in shock, gritted her teeth, and quickly untied the skirt.The white skirt slipped off, and Duan Hongzi let out a scream, but finally fell off the cliff and died.

Fang Xin rode down to the stone platform by climbing the vines. Seeing this, he hurriedly pulled Liu Yuru up.Liu Yuru's clothes were disheveled, but she couldn't care less, she fell on the ground trembling with her arms around her shoulders, unable to move for a long time.

Fang Xinqi saw that it was really inappropriate for her to behave like this, so he turned his head and saw Master Tianfa lying on the side, walked over to make a confession, took off the monk's large cassock, and turned around to put it on for Liu Yuru.

The two were rescued and sent to a small village at the foot of the mountain.The three of them temporarily lived in a farmer's house. There happened to be an old doctor in the village who had practiced medicine for many years. Fang Xinqi invited someone to treat Liu Yuru's injuries.

It is inconvenient for Fang Xinqi to stay for a long time, and he will leave after the two of them have settled down.Liu Yuru stayed by Master Tianfa's bed, and when Fang Xinqi came to say goodbye, she thanked Fang Xinqi in a low voice, paused, and then said again: "I can't repay you for saving my life, but there is still one thing I have to ask Fang Shaoxia."

Fang Xinqi smiled and said, "Miss Liu, you don't have to be polite. If it's something I can do, I will definitely help you."

Liu Yuru smiled lightly, then turned to look worried again, and said: "Although Master Tianfa and I escaped danger, but Miss Zhu was taken captive by the wicked, I am afraid that I will suffer again. Tianfa and I
