Chapter 236 Farewell
Shen Yuexi handed the sword to Xiao Zhuo and retreated to the edge of the square.

Her heart was restless.

She can absolutely trust Xiao Zhuo's swordsmanship, but he has a wound on his shoulder, and he is facing his teacher again.His skills were all taught by Ji Zhong, and Ji Zhong must be very familiar with his sword moves.

But no matter how powerful Ji Zhong is, his age is a factor.Old people don't rely on their muscles and bones, Xiao Zhuo at least has the advantage of being young.Plus another chicken and another night of rest…

She was still calculating the pros and cons of the two of them, and Ji Zhong had already drawn the sword from his waist.

Seeing the sword, she trembled slightly.

It was Xiao Beiheng's sword.

No wonder this sword looked familiar just now, when Xiao Zhuo fought Xiao Beiheng to save her, Xiao Beiheng used this sword.Now that Xiao Beiheng had killed Xiao Kai, Xiao Kai's Yan Que Sword must have fallen into his hands.He gave the original sword to Ji Zhong and asked him to kill Xiao Zhuo.

Thinking of Xiao Beiheng was really unpredictable for her.

Obviously there were several chances that he could kill her and Xiao Zhuo, but he didn't.Now that she and Xiao Zhuo have gone to a corner like Wusheng Town, he can still find them, as if there is a deep hatred, even Xiao Zhuo's teacher was sent here.

Xiao Zhuo once told her that people who seem to be capricious can actually figure it out.

She is not as smart as Xiao Zhuo, let Xiao Zhuo guess what Xiao Beiheng is thinking.

There was a "pop" in my ear, which sounded like two thin bamboos hitting together.

In just two seconds of distraction, Xiao Zhuo and Ji Zhong had already fought each other.

The cold light of the two swords suddenly appeared, they struck each other and then parted.The two raised their swords and crossed, and the whirlwind caused by the flying clothes caused the weeds under their feet to fall outwards at the same time centered on the two of them.

Shen Yuexi opened her mouth to cry out, but she dared not speak out, lest it would affect Xiao Zhuo.

Standing on tiptoe, fisting her hands, holding her breath, she watched as the two exchanged positions after the fight.

Just now, he was distracted to think about Xiao Beiheng's matter, and he didn't see clearly how the two of them made a move.But seeing that there was no bleeding on Xiao Zhuo's body, and his expression was calm and composed, it should be that he was not injured.

The same is true for Ji Zhong, the two are evenly divided.

But the important thing is that Xiao Zhuo's sword is intact.It was not as sad as meeting Yan Quejian before.

"The sword in your hand," Ji Zhong hung down the sword in his hand, looking at Xiao Zhuo's sword, "it is definitely not something that ordinary craftsmen can forge."

"Teacher's eyes are like torches." Xiao Zhuo also pointed the sword tip to the ground, "It was made by a hidden craftsman entrusted by my wife with a lot of money."

Shen Yuexi thought: Big bear's manufacturing technology is certainly not comparable to craftsmen of this era.However, Xiao Zhuo's ability to talk nonsense so seriously has improved, and even the hidden craftsmen have been pulled out.

"Your skills have also improved a lot." Ji Zhong raised his sword and took a deep breath, "Very good, you have given up the sword for me. Now you can do it with all your strength."

After finishing speaking, Ji Zhong rushed forward with his sword again, his movements were as agile as a cheetah preying on it, not like an old man at all.

In this attack, Ji Zhong seemed to have changed his routine, and the sword in his hand danced with a ball of silver light.Xiao Zhuo waved his sword to meet him, and the two swords intersected, making a series of crackling sounds.

Different from the first round, Ji Zhong pressed forward step by step as he swung his sword.Xiao Zhuo retreated step by step.

Shen Yuexi couldn't understand the fight between the two, but she saw that Xiao Zhuo retreated again and again, it seemed that she was at a disadvantage, and her heart couldn't help suspending.

Xiao Zhuo retreated again and again, was it because the wound on his shoulder prevented him from swinging the sword with all his strength?

Seeing Xiao Zhuo retreating all the way to a wooden ladder leaning on the dilapidated barn at the side of the square, Ji Zhong swung his sword and slashed across, Xiao Zhuo jumped backwards and upwards, jumping high, as if intending to jump onto the wooden ladder.As if Ji Zhong had expected him to do this, the sword light lifted up halfway.

Xiao Zhuo's body has just jumped in the air, but has not yet landed on the wooden ladder.

"Danger!" Shen Yuexi yelled out in fright.

Unexpectedly, this Ji Zhong's ability to control the sword is so strong, it seems that he swung the sword with all his strength, and turned as soon as he said it.

A bunch of old men suddenly popped up in her mind, called the laws of physics, and they shouted in one go: Xiao Zhuo will never be able to move horizontally, and it will never be possible to fly upwards.All the old men unanimously judged: Xiao Zhuo could never dodge the raised sword unless he blocked it with a sword.

But looking at Xiao Zhuo's right hand, it was still held high, it was too late.

Contrary to the expectations of the old men, Xiao Zhuo pushed his legs horizontally on the wooden ladder, and his whole body bounced above Ji Zhong's head.

He made a graceful somersault in the air, like a goshawk rushing down from a high altitude to catch a hare. When he rushed over his head, he stretched out his sharp claws and twirled. Ji Zhong's sword moves are the same, drawing an arc-like light, first bringing a touch of water stains on the ground, and then pulling it flat and upwards.

Two piercing sword lights rolled up one after the other.Ji Zhong's sword cut the wooden ladder in half from bottom to top, almost touching Xiao Zhuo's legs.

Xiao Zhuo's sword swiped across from Ji Zhong's back to the top of his head.

Shen Yuexi clearly saw that as Xiao Zhuo's sword light passed by, the clothes on Ji Zhong's back were torn apart.

Xiao Zhuo put his feet on the ground, straightened his body again, lowered his sword and said: "Teacher, this disciple is taught."

Ji Zhong stood facing the barn for a moment, then Fang slowly turned around.

Shen Yuexi was disappointed, Xiao Zhuo's sword only scratched Ji Zhong's clothes, but did not hurt the flesh at all.

"I'm defeated, you can kill me with this sword." Ji Zhong didn't show the slightest dejection, and seemed to be very happy, "You are indeed the most admired disciple of this old man. Even in the critical moment of life and death, you still have your own principles .”

Xiao Zhuo bowed his head and said: "One day as a teacher, life as a father. Disciples never dare to hurt the teacher."

"I heard that you were in a duel with Xiao Kai, and when you were sure of winning, you didn't kill him." Ji Zhong stuck the sword in his hand on the ground, "But it's true?"

Shen Yuexi saw that the two of them didn't seem to intend to continue fighting, so she interjected: "Mr. Ji, I saw it with my own eyes. My husband stabbed Xiao Kai's leg with a sword, but did not kill him."

From Xiao Zhuo's tone, he only wants to win and will never hurt his teacher.And Ji Zhong doesn't seem to be the kind of person who will do whatever it takes to win.She felt that the competition should be over.

Ji Zhong nodded and said, "This is the difference between you and Xiao Beiheng."

Shen Yuexi came close to the two, and when she heard Ji Zhong mentioning Xiao Beiheng, she immediately became curious: "Old Ji, what kind of person is Xiao Beiheng?"

She always felt that Xiao Beiheng was an unpredictable person, and she was still thinking about it just now.

"Xiao Beiheng, his cruelty is bottomless," Ji Zhong sighed, "Even if Xiao Zhuo knew that I was here to kill him, he would not hurt me. I also taught Xiao Beiheng swordsmanship, but he never regarded me as a teacher treat."

Shen Yuexi didn't quite understand it, it sounded like Ji Zhong meant that Xiao Zhuo had a bottom line, and Xiao Beiheng had no bottom line.

Xiao Zhuo said that Ji Zhong is his teacher, he is equivalent to his father, and he will never hurt Ji Zhong.

Then Xiao Beiheng's words will hurt Ji Zhong?What about his father?

"Old Ji, since Xiao Beiheng is such a person, why do you still follow him, come with us." She suggested to Ji Zhong.

Ji Zhong shook his head, and sat down against the barn:

"What do I, a bad old man, follow you, you young people have your own things to do quickly. I am old, and I am a little tired after playing a few tricks. I need to take a break... By the way, we have three horses when we come , Song Zhen seems to have ridden one horse, and there are two left, the three of you will make it up."

Xiao Zhuo didn't say much, straightened his clothes, and bowed respectfully to Ji Zhong three times in a row as a disciple.

Ji Zhong smiled slightly, waved his hand and said, "Go, go."

Xiao Zhuo got up and said to Shen Yuexi: "Yuexi, let's go."

Shen Yuexi didn't understand yet, and followed Xiao Zhuo: "Old Ji gave us the horse, what did he ride... Oh, so someone will come later, how did my husband guess it... Qiang Lin has to ask my husband to help me, I Alone on my own horse."

Sitting in the barn, Ji Zhong watched the two of Xiao and Chen get out of the Qiang Forest from the inn in the distance, and the two of them rode away gradually.

"Xiao Beiheng is someone who can sacrifice everything for his own goals. If he goes back like this, all his family members will die." Ji Zhong smiled wryly, "There is only one way left."

He pulled the sword from the ground and inserted it into his heart with his backhand.

After a stick of incense, the dense and noisy sound of horseshoes resounded throughout the entire town of Lusheng.

The sound of horseshoes stopped near the square barn, and a voice sounded:
"Come on, hurry up and report to His Royal Highness, Ji Zhong failed and was killed by Xiao Zhuo."
