The flower is a tulip [Chu Liuxiang]

"Eastern Ninja?"

While Hua Manlou was surprised, the black person on the opposite side suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, the laughter was actually louder than the sound of the stream.

"He has a wide range of knowledge and is right in one sentence. He really deserves to be Chu Liuxiang!"

The laughter was blunt, but the voice of this sentence was even more blunt, almost word for word, and with a strange foreign accent.

Chu Liuxiang's expression changed, and he said, "Your Excellency recognize me?"

The eyes of the black man exposed outside the veil suddenly shot out, and he said in a deep voice: "I have long admired the name of Bandit Commander, and I am here to ask for advice!"

Chu Liuxiang said, "Ask me?"

The black man said: "That's right. You and I will have a showdown today!"

Chu Liuxiang seemed to be taken aback, and then said: "I don't know Your Excellency..."

The black man said: "Tianfeng Fourteenth Lang."

Chu Liuxiang pondered: "Tianfeng Shishilang, is this your name?"

The black man said: "Now you know."

Chu Liuxiang smiled wryly and said, "Why does Your Excellency have to challenge me for a martial arts competition?"

Tianfeng Shishilang said: "I have practiced hard for many years in the 'Fighting the Wind', and I am invincible in Dongpu. I heard that Chu Liuxiang is a martial arts genius born in the Central Plains, so I came here to try the trick."

Chu Liuxiang's expression moved again, and he seemed to ask casually: "Then when did you come to the Central Plains?"

Tianfeng Shishilang said: "Ten days ago."

Ten days ago, it was the time when Chu Liuxiang and Hua Manlou set off from Penglai to Jiangnan.

Chu Liuxiang has been suspecting that the Dongying ninja he met in Jinan was the man in front of him who called himself Tianfeng Shishilang.However, he said that he had just arrived in the Central Plains ten days ago.

Naturally, I can't believe what this person said, but if he is the mysterious murderer behind the scenes, why did he show up in front of Chu Liuxiang?

Chu Liuxiang looked back at Huamanlou, and seeing his pensive expression, she knew that he was also thinking about this issue just like herself.However, the black figure of Tianfeng Shishilang had already stood up, holding a knife in both hands, took a step forward, and said in a deep voice: "Please."

Chu Liuxiang could only touch his nose, and murmured: "If someone really asked you to come to me for a martial arts competition, this person must have deceived you."

After saying this, he closed his lips tightly.

Just because he already felt the murderous aura emanating from the person opposite.

Cold, fierce and murderous.

Chu Liuxiang realized that no matter what, this person had become the most terrifying enemy in front of him.All his murderous aura was condensed on that long and narrow steel knife, once he made a move, what a shocking scene it would be.

The hunting mountain wind blew in front of him, and Chu Liuxiang suddenly felt cold all over his body. It turned out that he was already covered in cold sweat in an instant.

But he didn't move.

It's just because Tianfeng Shishilang on the opposite side still holds the knife in both hands and stands with his feet open.This standing posture seems casual, but Chu Liuxiang knows that he has shown a perfect and impeccable posture.If he attacked rashly at this time, the murderous aura gathered on the knife would immediately surge out, endlessly.

This is like cutting a hole in the embankment when a mountain torrent erupts.The vented flood will not only rush out of the gap with the greatest force, but even break down the entire embankment.

So Chu Liuxiang was waiting.

What is he waiting for?

Could it be that he was waiting for the moment when Tianfeng Shishilang fully gathered his murderous aura?

It should be known that Tianfeng Shishilang will immediately make a move at that moment, which will be a fierce move that has never been seen before.

Chu Liuxiang was not sure that he could catch that move.

He couldn't wait, but had to wait.

He hadn't made a move in this battle, and he seemed to have been completely defeated.

Hua Manlou standing behind him probably knew this too, because although Hua Manlou couldn't see it, he was more keenly aware of the murderous intent than anyone else.

But Hua Manlou didn't move at all, and didn't even make a sound, as if he was afraid that a little interference from the outside world would put Chu Liuxiang to death in advance.

The light of the knife flashed, and there was a thunderbolt.

No one can describe the speed and power of that knife.

In the originally peaceful valley, suddenly it seemed like a thunderstorm fell, not only with the sound of thunderbolts, but also stirred up the water spray of the mountain stream at the foot.The water droplets turned into mist and filled the small bridge, immediately covering the figure of Tianfeng Shishilang.

What about Chu Liuxiang?

Chu Liuxiang's figure suddenly disappeared.

He didn't retreat, one reason was that Hua Manlou was right behind him, if he backed up and dodged, Hua Manlou would take the place of him to strike the sharp edge of the saber.

Another reason is that even if he and Hua Manlou jumped backwards together, he might not be able to dodge such a violent and overwhelming blow.

Yingfeng slashed with a knife, although there was only one knife, it was a sure-to-kill knife!

Where did Chu Liuxiang, who was enveloped by this sure-to-kill sword, go?

Tianfeng Shishilang's pupils shrank suddenly, he shouted loudly, and slashed at his feet with a knife.

Under his feet was the small wooden bridge.

The planks shattered, and with them the chains that connected them.

This knife with infinite power has already split the small bridge into two sections.Tianfeng Shishilang, who was originally standing on the bridge, also fell down sharply.

However, as if he didn't realize his dangerous situation at all, he still opened his eyes wide and searched around.

He saw Chu Liuxiang!

Chu Liuxiang was actually under the bridge, holding onto the chains on the bottom of the bridge with both hands.As soon as the bridge broke, he also fell down.

Tianfeng Shishilang shouted again, swiping his knife and slashing straight.

At this time, the bridge deck had collapsed, and both of them were already in the air, with no leverage.But Tianfeng Shishilang seemed to be crazy, he didn't try to jump up, but poured all his remaining strength into this knife.

Chu Liuxiang suddenly let out a long laugh, and said, "Yingfeng slashed with a knife, but he won't be able to do it once. Is there a second knife?"

Before he finished speaking, his figure was suddenly pulled up!

This small bridge was originally made of iron chains pulled horizontally and then paved with wooden boards. The wooden boards and chains in the middle of the bridge deck were cut off by Tianfeng Shishilang just now, but the two ends are still fixed between the mountain walls on both sides. superior.

What Chu Liuxiang was holding was a section of iron chain on the mountain wall.

He seemed to have already calculated it, when the other side slashed out, he immediately jumped off the small bridge, but he clung to the bottom of the bridge and hung in mid-air.When Tianfeng Shishilang cut off the bridge deck and thought that both of them would fall, he had a chance to jump up again.

This is not at all the method that can be used in ordinary martial arts competitions, but he did use it.At this time, no one was going to laugh at his ugly posture, and his not-so-upright strategy, because he won life for himself at the critical moment.

Survival is the ultimate goal of any duel.Chu Liuxiang has always been very aware of this.

Standing on the ground of survival is victory.The outcome seems to have been decided!

However, just when Chu Liuxiang was about to jump up the cliff, the iron chain in his palm was cut off with a "clank".

Tianfeng Shishilang, who had fallen into the mountain stream with the broken bridge, had a vicious smile on the corner of his mouth.

Although the wind of the second knife was not as sharp and unstoppable as the first knife, it cut off the iron chain and Chu Liuxiang's vitality after all.

The two figures fell to the bottom of the stream one after the other, like meteors flashing across the night sky.

No one knows where the meteor went after it fell, but the two men can still be found.

The mountain stream wasn't too deep, so the lightness of the two of them might not cause damage, and when they reached the bottom of the stream, it was the beginning of another battle.

But after the fight just now, Hua Manlou has already heard that Chu Liuxiang's martial arts, especially the ability to adapt to changes, should be superior to Tianfeng Shishilang.Although the "Windward Slash" is fierce and fierce, no one dares to attack it head on, but it takes too long to store power, so it is difficult to use it in close combat.

With Chu Liuxiang's ability, naturally he wouldn't give the opponent another chance to use this move.

Therefore, Hua Manlou breathed a sigh of relief, and planned to find a way down to meet Chu Liuxiang.But his footsteps only moved slightly, and then stopped immediately.

A familiar breath permeated the valley where there was no other person.

This is exactly the kind of atmosphere that Huamanlou felt by the Daming Lake in Jinan.murderous look.

Could it be that Tianfeng Shishilang didn't fall into the mountain stream?Could it be that he has accomplices?

Hua Manlou's nerves tensed up, but his heart sank slowly, quietly feeling the surrounding environment.

Because he can't see, his other senses are far more acute than ordinary people.He could hear the blades of grass vibrating in the wind, and he could hear the flying insects in the bushes.

But he didn't hear anyone's breathing or heartbeat, except himself.

The murderous aura seemed to fade a bit, Huamanlou knew that the stalker was hiding his existence.This is exactly the ninjutsu that Japanese ninjas are best at.

If it had been another person, the breath might be held unconsciously at this time.Because the surroundings are so quiet, it is so quiet that it is impossible to imagine that there are still people.

Huamanlou didn't do that.He still seemed to be standing there normally, but he had gradually adjusted his breathing to match the rhythm of the surrounding environment.

It was the rhythm felt by listening to nature with his heart during his long life of blindness.

This rhythm makes him gradually merge with nature, as if everything in the world has become a part of his body, his eyes, his ears.

Then he waited quietly, like a good hunter waiting for his prey to appear.

The murderous intent is getting stronger.

The opponent seems to be ready to move.

Suddenly, a sharp wind roared, hitting Hua Manlou's standing figure directly.

Lower two, middle two, upper three.

Hua Manlou seemed to see a hidden weapon coming from the sky clearly. With a slip of his footsteps, he had already slipped three feet away. Mei actually seemed to have eyes, and he circled in the air, attacking from two directions on the left and right.

The sleeves of his clothes fluttered lightly, Hua Manlou moved again, but retreated sharply, and two more darts flew past his face alternately.Almost at the same time, he raised his hand, right hand.

The white figure of Hua Manlou finally stood still, only four feet away from the edge of the cliff.His right hand rested next to his face, between the index finger and middle finger, was holding the third dart.

The swastika-shaped dart made of fine steel, with faint blue light shining on all four sides.

Hua Manlou raised his eyebrows suddenly, and the dart flew out between his fingers, attacking a clump of low bushes.

A few broken leaves splashed, but there was no sound.

The stalker who sent out darts in the dark has once again disappeared in an unknown place.

Hua Manlou exhaled lightly and began to readjust his breathing.He knew this was far from over.

This is a game, a dead game.Between him and the stalker in the dark, someone must die.

When he realized that Tianfeng Shishilang's appearance was just to lure Chu Liuxiang away, he thought of this.

Hua Manlou didn't feel scared, but beads of sweat dripped from his forehead.

It was because what he faced this time was probably the most powerful enemy in his life.

An enemy who can hide his presence despite his keen senses.

The only good thing is that this enemy will always show his traces when he makes a move.Because it is impossible for him to hide the murderous aura, and as long as there is a murderous aura, Hua Manlou can detect it.

Perhaps for both sides, this is a very difficult battle.

Huamanlou is waiting again.

If you act rashly when you don't know the exact location of the opponent's hiding place, it will put him at a disadvantage that cannot be reversed, but this kind of waiting is not much better.

Just because he has to concentrate on coordinating with the rhythm of the surrounding environment, this coordinating is far from being as calm and easy as outsiders see him.

He already felt that his strength was losing bit by bit, and the sweat began to slide from his forehead, and he didn't even dare to wipe it off.

Sure enough, at this moment, the murderous aura is even stronger!

Huamanlou started to move his feet almost before he heard the wind.

Just because there are more and denser hidden weapons this time, if he doesn't move, he's afraid he'll be beaten into a sieve already.

His white clothes were fluttering, and his figure had risen in the air, dodging most of the hidden weapons.A white shadow in the verdant valley looks like a banished fairy descending into the world, it is indescribably beautiful and moving.

But Hua Manlou was in the air, and suddenly felt something was wrong.

From the sound of the hidden weapon piercing through the air, he could already hear that this time the opponent shot more than a dozen darts.This is not a hidden weapon at all, but a spill of beans.

With this jump, Hua Manlou dodged three or four of them, followed by pulling out his sleeves, and rolled down another five or six. Only three of them flew straight towards him, and he had to leap backwards to avoid them.

Ordinary people are in mid-air and have nowhere to use their strength. I'm afraid they won't be able to change their body shape, but with Huamanlou's lightness kung fu, they can still retreat three feet.

So he immediately retreated three feet, and his figure just fell.Before landing on the ground, I was suddenly shocked!

The position where he was standing just now was less than four feet away from the edge of the cliff, and now he jumped three feet, and stepped on the gravel on the edge of the cliff as soon as he landed, and his feet slipped immediately.He wanted to move forward, but the sound of a hidden weapon was approaching, trying to force him down the mountain stream.

The attack this time has obviously been carefully calculated.

Hua Manlou sighed for a long time, he had forced himself to stabilize his footsteps, and when he was about to raise his hand to meet the hidden weapon, it was already a step too late.

He could almost hear the muffled sound of the sharp darts hammering into flesh.

However, after the fluttering of the clothes, there were three crisp metal knocks of "Ding", "Ding", and "Ding".Then a hand grabbed his arm, pulled him two steps forward, and left the cliff that was close at hand.

Hua Manlou's heart skipped a beat, and he said pleasantly, "Brother Hong?"

Zhongyuan Dianhong's cold and unwavering voice sounded in his ears, but it seemed to have a rare smile: "I'll pay off your other half's debt."

The author has something to say: By the way, the clues of the case are basically collected, how do you guess Lao Chu will organize the logical chain?
