[Comprehensive martial arts] Gentle sword

City Lord Ye will not go into details on how to answer Miss Xie's question.

In short, Ye Gucheng has learned that no matter how gentle a woman is, it is difficult to deal with when she intentionally seeks trouble.

Finally, Xie Wan burst out laughing, not to continue embarrassing the other party on this issue.

"Okay, okay, Erwu is still waiting outside."

Ye Gucheng looked at her smiling face, opened his mouth but didn't speak, and looked a little helpless.

Opening the door, Nianwu dutifully stood outside the door and waited. Ye Gucheng walked in front with his sword in hand, and said, "Let's go."

It was already the middle of the night, and the hissing of swords and swords only occupied a small part of the quiet night, and the departure of the three did not wake up anyone in the inn at all.

In the corner of the imperial city, an old eunuch in eunuch uniform looked around vigilantly in the dim candlelight, and finally arrived at the place where he had contacted Ye Gucheng recently.Under the weak light source, the old eunuch's pale but wrinkled face looked gloomy. There, the chief eunuch named Wang An saw Ye Gucheng.Now there are only two nights left before their planned September [-]th, and everything has been prepared. Director Wang really doesn't understand why Ye Gucheng wants to meet him at this moment. Any extra actions may cause trouble now. necessary trouble.

Manager Wang was not in a good mood, but in front of him was Ye Gucheng, he barely pulled the corners of his mouth, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to be getting deeper.

"City Master Ye, I don't know what you want from me."

"Just one thing."

"Oh? What?"

Ye Gucheng drew out his sword: "Kill you."

Director Wang turned pale in shock, and couldn't help taking two steps back. He was in a state of confusion, and couldn't help thinking about what caused Ye Gucheng to change his mind temporarily. At this time, the old eunuch saw Xie Wan and Nian Wu coming out of the darkness.

Nan Wang and Manager Wang mentioned the woman next to Ye Gucheng, saying that Xie Wan had reached the point where he could influence Ye Gucheng's decision, what they needed was a sharp and unstoppable sword, and a sword didn't need emotion.But a sword with emotions is much easier to handle than a ruthless sword that does not distinguish between enemy and friend.When the son arrived in the capital, he knew that Xie Wan was also here, and after discussing with Manager Wang with Ye Gucheng behind his back, he decided to take Xie Wan away.It's a pity that the success fell short.

The chief eunuch turned around and panicked, even though it was impossible for him to escape Ye Gucheng's sword, he always struggled to survive when life and death were on the line, and he couldn't think so much.

The sword fell so simply that there were not even blood drops on the sword.Ye Gucheng did not rely on human hands for this matter, but Nian Wu knew that there must be something he needs to do next.Ye Gucheng withdrew his sword and said to Twenty-Five: "Clean him up, and you will pretend to be him before September [-]th."

After thousands of calculations, Nian Wu did not expect that his task would be to turn into a chief eunuch in Yi Rongcheng.He estimated it, and sure enough, he and the opponent's height were relatively close.

"Of course, City Lord." The thought of pretending to be an old man with a pale face and incomplete body made Er Wu's face stiffen.Suddenly, he thought of one thing: "City Master, your subordinates will not be easy..."

Xie Wan took out a mold of a human skin mask: "I will help you well."

Twenty-five knew that the city lord's wife had already spoken, and he definitely couldn't refuse.

On September [-]th, the turmoil in the capital had shifted to the bright side. Lu Xiaofeng was deeply involved. He was tired and full of doubts. He knew that Xie Wan and the guards of Baiyun City who followed her had disappeared. The other main character in the decisive battle, Ximen Chuuxue, Lu Xiaofeng wished he could let someone else do the work.Seeing Ximen Chuuxue again, and seeing Sun Xiuqing exuding the gentleness of being a mother, Lu Xiaofeng, who had been told earlier, was not caught off guard.After Ximen Chuuxue proposed, Lu Xiaofeng told him: "Miss Xie told me."

Ximen Chuuxue looked sideways, and Lu Xiaofeng said, "It's Ye Gucheng's wife who hasn't married yet." By the way, he told Ximen Chuuxue about Xie Wan's disappearance.

Ximen Chuixue thought about it for a while, then a glint flashed in his cold eyes: "That's not right."

"Why not?"

"A month ago in Zijin Mountain, Ye Gucheng brought her with me when we competed swords. If, as you said, Ye Gucheng was worried about her safety and left her to come to Beijing alone, he wouldn't have taken this into consideration from the beginning. .”

For people like Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng, the person who knows him best is not necessarily his friend, but probably his enemy.Lu Xiaofeng thought about it again, and felt that what Ximen said was very reasonable.Obviously Xie Wan lied to him, there must be some kind of purpose behind the deliberate deception.This gave Lu Xiaofeng a direction.

Everyone had their own plans, and in the process, the night of September [-]th arrived.

The emperor woke up in the middle of the night and saw another person who looked exactly like himself but was wearing his court clothes. The emperor was both shocked and angry.At this time, Nian Wu, who was dressed as the chief eunuch, spoke in a flattering tone, and according to what Ye Gucheng told him before, he talked about the conspiracy of Nanwang and Nanwang's son in a eulogizing tone.

The emperor looked at Ye Gucheng and shook his head: "Qingben is beautiful, why is she a thief?"

Ye Gucheng did not agree with the emperor's statement, but his purpose tonight was not here, and he only responded with a few words.

The rights in the world will change hands quietly when the sun rises tomorrow morning, the throne is close at hand, and the son of the Southern King looks a little crazy in joy.But the real emperor was calm and waved out his seven hidden guards.These seven hidden guards are the ones with the highest martial arts besides Ouchi's four masters, but Shizi knows that these are no problem for Ye Gucheng beside him.

It's just that Ye Gucheng didn't move.

The prince was a little sullen, he no longer respected Ye Gucheng as his teacher before, and threatened with words: "Hurry up, or...you may not see Xie Wan."

Hearing this, Ye Gucheng shuddered, and drew his sword in response to the words, but it was placed on the crown prince's head, and on the other side, Nianwu also quickly restrained the prince Nanwang.This sudden change stunned both the emperor on the stage and the prince under restraint.The prince was furious, but he could only sternly say: "Ye Gucheng, what are you doing!"

A person slowly came out from the darkness behind the door. In the previous confrontation between the two sides, none of the hidden guards around the emperor noticed that there was one more person present. It can be seen how much martial arts this person who looks like a boudoir girl has. high.As soon as the prince saw Xie Wan, he glared at the chief eunuch fiercely. He clearly told himself that Xie Wan had been kidnapped!

Twenty-five had had enough of holding his throat and talking in the past two days, so he immediately tore off the disguise on his face, and stared back at the other party without showing any weakness.

"Where's Wang An?!"

Nian Wu bluntly replied: "Dead."

This is what Lu Xiaofeng saw when he broke in.But Lu Xiaofeng's brains turned quickly, and he immediately said: "So you did this scene on purpose." Regardless of the result or not, Lu Xiaofeng spoke before the few big insiders behind him, just hoping to win more for Ye Gucheng Some chances of getting out.

Sure enough, after Lu Xiaofeng said it, the emperor on the high platform had a gentle smile on his face: "City Lord Baiyun is indeed an extraordinary person."

At this time, the four masters who rushed to come here were in a panic. If Ye Gucheng hadn't just pretended to cooperate with Nan Wang, he wanted to expose his plot. If the emperor made any mistake tonight, they would not be able to pay for it with their heads.

When the matter was settled, Ye Gucheng silently looked at Xie Wan beside him.Before he could speak, Xie Wan already understood what he was going to say: "You go."

Ye Gucheng clenched his sword tightly, his eyes were firm, and he replied: "Okay."

So Lu Xiaofeng breathed a sigh of relief and raised his heart: "Ye Gucheng, do you want to compete with swords?"

Ye Gucheng said: "Of course there is a comparison."

Lu Xiaofeng couldn't stop a swordsman's determination, Ye Gucheng flew out, Lu Xiaofeng stayed in place for a while, stamped his feet angrily, and when he saw Xie Wan, he asked her: "Aren't you going to stop him?"

Xie Wan smiled: "I shouldn't stop, and I don't have to."

Maybe she was still worrying about it before, but Xie Wan's mood was very calm at this time.

This calmness made Lu Xiaofeng feel that he was messing with it for nothing, and he muttered: "You are not in a hurry."

They returned to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue were already standing on the Hall of Supreme Harmony.On the night of the full moon, the clear and bright moonlight shines on the two peerless swordsmen. The peerless swordsmen are unparalleled, so there is destined to be a battle between them.Ye Gucheng had been waiting for this moment for a long time, so that he felt a sense of the dust finally coming, and he was excited, but his hand holding the sword was very steady.

This was the best moment, he was not injured, and he was not disturbed by Nanwang's rebellion.

Ximen Chuuxue drew out his sword, he saw Xie Wan not far away, Ximen Chuuxue saw Lu Xiaofeng coming back and forth, even if he didn't understand Ye Gucheng's real plan for this situation, Ximen Chuuxue knew that now he was finally waiting over this competition.

"Wait a little longer." Ximen Chuixue said.

"Why?"

Ximen Chuuxue stared at the other party: "I'm waiting for your peace of mind."

Ye Gucheng laughed when he heard his words, Ximen Chuuxue was indeed a respectable opponent in his whole life.

"No need to wait, my heart is already quiet."

This competition was already on the verge of an arrow and had to be launched, but Ye Gucheng felt that he had experienced something other than winning or losing on the spot.

Compared with the original intention of the sword competition, he has changed a lot.

Ye Gucheng turned his head and glanced at Xie Wan, although he didn't smile, his eyes under the moonlight were so gentle.

Speaking of which, this competition is very fair. This is no longer two people who are like swords. They have each stepped down from the altar and have their own weaknesses.Feelings melted into flesh and blood, they became human.

Ximen Chuuxue saw Ye Gucheng looking at Xie Wan.But Ye Gucheng turned around and said to Ximen Chuuxue, "You are fine. But in this competition, I must be the one who wins."

"I have a reason to have to win."

But who has no reason to win, people always hope that they will win.Ximen Chuuxue seemed to know what Ye Gucheng meant, and he asked, "For a woman?"

Ximen Chuuxue thought that Ye Gucheng would be more pure, and the reason for the sword competition was only because of him personally, but Ximen Chuuxue found that he felt the same way.Because he thought of Sun Xiuqing.

Ye Gucheng didn't answer, and then asked: "You practice swords, what is your swordsmanship?"

Ximen Chuixue said: "Be sincere to others."

Ye Gucheng answered differently from him: "I serve people with sincerity with the sword."

"But the sword is born from the heart, she is in my heart, how can it be unimportant?"

With the cold light of the two cold swords, the two swordsmen in white ignited blood different from their aloof appearance under the moon.There may be other splendors in their lives, but at this moment, the sword has become their only one.

All the people who watched the battle this night were all in awe. Presumably this night will become an unforgettable experience in their lives in the future.

Ximen Chuuxue's sword is like the frost coming from beyond the Great Wall, while Ye Gucheng's sword is like a wind blowing through the white clouds. It is better to say that the sword moves are a portrayal of their honesty rather than their sword moves.

With the last sword, Ximen Chuuxue found himself defeated, but Ye Gucheng's sword stopped.

Winning is an extremely remarkable thing, but what is even more powerful is that in such a duel, the sword can be recruited freely and won without taking human life.

If he loses, Ximen Chuuxue will die with regret, but he cannot accept that he survived under Ye Gucheng's sword, which is more unbearable than losing.But Ye Gucheng lowered his brows gently, retracted his sword and said to Ximen Chuuxue: "We will have another match."

This match was full of fun, and Ye Gucheng had a new understanding, and he also expected his opponent to reach a higher peak.And Ximen Chuuxue can do it completely.

Ximen Chuuxue's eyes brightened slightly: "Five years!"

He is confident that he will beat Ye Gucheng five years later.

Ye Gucheng gave him an answer: "Three years."

Three years later, Ximen Chuuxue will be able to defeat him.

"Okay, three years later, we will arrange another competition between you and me."

The two swordsmen put away their swords, and the awe-inspiring sword aura and pressure of the night finally dissipated at the last moment before the dawn of the night.A decisive battle ended in this way, and everyone had various emotions.

But these parties don't care.

Ye Gucheng walked back to Xie Wan, and he saw his girl waiting for him with a smile.

The remaining fighting spirit in the body has not dissipated, and it all subsides in these gentle eyes, Ye Gucheng sighed in his heart.

Ye Gucheng won, Xie Wan was happy, and also happy that he got his wish.

The swordsman took her with the other hand that was not holding the sword, and walked towards the outside of the imperial city regardless of the people in the world behind him.The guards of Baiyun City dutifully followed five steps away from the two of them.

On the road.

"I still owe you an unkept promise."

Chu Xiaying illuminates the red walls and glazed tiles of the Forbidden City, and walks past the blue bricks. It's time for them to go home.

Miss Xie smiled: "To be a human being is to keep your promises."

Ye Gucheng turned his head slightly, and kissed her hair.
