The Sword of Smiling and Proud

Chapter 177
Guan Yuan stretched out his hand and slapped his right palm lightly on Kazama Taro's waist, as if he was going to dust him off.

Taro Kazama was alert and did not dare to face the enemy head-on. He retreated sharply and seemed to have seen some flaw in Guan Yuan. He bypassed the front and stepped forward hastily.Guan Yuan turned around and moved to block.

Guan Yuan was familiar with the methods of the island country's ninjas, and he was holding his arms tightly, worried that he would accidentally slap the other person to death.Even so, Taro Kazama had no time to dodge his simple Jade-Breaking Fist just now. He crossed his claws to block the blow and was knocked several feet away.

Without the advantage of a surprise attack, Taro Kazama was no match for him in a head-on confrontation.

I saw him rushing left and right, almost exhausted, but it was all in vain.After a while, Guan Yuan was also a little tired. As soon as the sword energy condensed on his fingertips, Taro Kazama felt a black light flash in front of his eyes, and there was a sharp pain in his chest. When he lowered his head, he saw that there was a hole, as if he had been stabbed. The sharp blade gouged out a piece of flesh from his chest alive.

He endured the severe pain, fumbled for something from his cuffs, and threw it forward, stirring up a huge cloud of smoke. It turned out to be a small bag of gunpowder made of sulfur and saltpeter, wrapped in a yellow pole, and containing a candle or something. of hidden fire.Under the fierce collision, the gunpowder ignited and yellow smoke emitted, covering the figure.

It was a pity that he could not wait until he ran as far as he could before he pounced again, fell to the ground, and did not move again.If someone comes closer, they can see a blood hole between Taro Kazama's eyebrows, with red and white mixed together and flowing out.

That Kazama Taro is known as the head of the contemporary Fuma clan, and he has inherited the code name passed down from generation to generation in the family, "Fuma Kotaro". He died in a remote forest farm in the Ming Dynasty before he could emerge on the stage of domestic disputes on the island. middle.

His death horrified Momochi Tanba who was standing beside him. He had seen Kazama's ninjutsu before and was not inferior to him, but he was killed by the young Akito next to him in three strokes. It was really terrifying.

The battle with Xu Chenzi here was also a bit anxious. He could clearly feel that the opponent's martial arts skills were much higher than his own, but due to his own injuries, he was unable to move and could only block his attacks within a few feet of his body.

Now that his companion died, he also wanted to quit, but Guan Yuan could not let him do so.

Seeing him stand up and jump back, he ignored the kid who was hiding before and ran into the dense forest.It would be really difficult to find him if he were allowed to get into such a large forest.

Guan Yuan used his technique again, and the murderous sword energy directly sealed his throat. Baidi Danbo lost his life in mid-air and fell to the ground with a plop, making no sound.

Guan Yuan nodded slightly with satisfaction, as if he was very satisfied with the power of his murderous sword energy. In the past, he always lacked the means to attack from a long distance, either throwing long hair or wearing a sword.Now that I have sword energy, when I go back and study a set of sword techniques suitable for long-range sword energy, wouldn't it be a replica of the Six Meridians Divine Sword?

The three people on the field looked at the lonely kid on the side. Fang Ben had a calm face. Being able to be carried around by two ninjas must be used to life and death. Xu Chenzi had a smile on his face. It was obviously a smile but a hint of cruelty could be seen, and Guan Yuan stepped forward and planned to capture the little Japanese pirate.

"I have never killed anyone in the Ming Dynasty, nor have I ever robbed anyone of their money." The kid spoke in Ming Dynasty Mandarin that was not very fluent. He didn't know who he learned it from, and he had a Shandong accent.

"According to your Ming Dynasty, I am not guilty. Can you spare my life?" He was alert, but Guan Yuan was not happy.

"Your father just died, and you don't have any resentment at all? Don't you want to seek revenge from us?" Guan Yuan asked.

"I don't want to think about it at the moment. If I do, I'm not far away from death." The kid was frank, and a gentleman would bully him. In this way, it would be difficult for Guan Yuan to kill him.This kid is only ten years old, and his figure is still young. He may be born short. He looks only a few years old, so Guan Yuan will naturally not kill him.

It's just that this little cub is as stoic and astute as a wolf. If the tiger is allowed to return to the mountain, it is likely to grow into a powerful force.

"If you are the members of the demon sect that Ming Dynasty said, then it will be unlucky for me. If you want to kill me, I will kill you." The kid closed his eyes and handed his fate to Guan Yuan.

Guan Yuan sighed softly. He could not be judged for a crime he had not yet committed. "You can go on your own. Don't do anything wrong in the Ming Dynasty, otherwise I will kill you."

The kid seemed to have expected it a long time ago. The behavior of Guan Yuan and others was nothing like the people from the Demon Cult that he had heard about before. He would definitely be able to escape.He turned around and ran without hesitation, without even looking at the body lying on the ground.

Guan Yuan couldn't help but sigh, "This Japanese is ruthless and decisive, and he will become a great weapon in the future." If Guan Yuan knew the kid's name, he might not let him go so easily.

Without the interference of others, there were only four people, Guan Yuan, Liang Fa, Fang Ben, and Xu Chenzi.

Fang Ben was already seriously injured and couldn't get up. Xu Chenzi was also seriously injured. Just now, he was pulled by Bai Di Danbo and his heart was shaken. At this time, there was blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

"What are your plans? Now you don't have the strength to fight with me. It's really a pity."

"Hmph, even so, I still don't accept it." That Xu Chenzi thought very highly of himself, and even though he had been defeated by Guan Yuan before, he was unwilling to accept it, "I will only accept you if you can take my last blow. "

"I'll come with you. I'll take my last breath. It's a living thing to linger on, and it's a living thing to be passionate." Fang Ben seemed to be struggling to hold on, wanting to join forces with Xu Chenzi.

The two seemed to have put aside their previous grudges and just wanted to compete with Guan Yuan again.

Fang Ben and Xu Chenzi belong to Buddhism and Taoism respectively, and they are both leaders in their respective sects. It can be said that there is only a slight difference between them.If Guan Yuan had not intervened and ruined their plans several times, the dragon would have entered the sea long ago, leaving me to roam.It can only be said that Guan Yuan is their mortal enemy and cannot escape.

Monk Fang Ben has mastered the Shaolin Marrow Cleansing Sutra, and Xu Chenzi has practiced Tai Ling Chunyang Kung Fu for many years, both of which can be regarded as unique skills in the world.It's just that without Guan Yuan's many adventures, it's just not as good as it is in terms of state.

According to Guan Yuan's own assessment, the martial arts level of the two men in front of him has surpassed that of Yue Buqun, and is much more advanced than Fang Zheng and Chongxu.Now that the two of them join forces, it is truly an unprecedented challenge.

But now that the matter was over, Guan Yuan did not back down and asked Liang Fa to help him sweep the formation, then he stretched out his palms and palmed each other with the two of them.As soon as the three of them competed with each other in terms of internal strength, Liang Fa, who was standing aside, felt as if he had an illusion. An invisible force stirred up a breeze, pushing outwards from the center. Liang Fa was a little confused when he pushed forward.

Guan Yuan, who was at the center of the storm, felt two waves of internal force coming in continuously.The pure internal power of the Marrow Cleansing Sutra, together with the scorching breath of the Tailing Pure Yang Gong, are like ocean waves, constantly hitting the defense line of the Innate Gong.

At this moment, Guan Yuan was distracted and used two parts, seven parts of strength and three parts of transformation strength. He was able to catch the two completely different forces in his left and right hands after a series of eliminations and blows.

An unhealthy flush appeared on the faces of Fang Ben and Xu Chenzi. It was obvious that they were working hard on their internal energy due to severe injuries, which put a huge burden on their bodies.

Guan Yuan used his innate skills with all his strength, and was barely able to block the internal strength of these two masters.It took him a stick of incense to establish a solid front and start to counterattack.

Just when he was looking for flaws in the two people opposite him in the huge waves of the deep sea, Fang Ben on the left couldn't hold on anymore and spat out a mouthful of blood on the ground. He couldn't support it with his palms and his whole body slumped.

Xu Chenzi, who was helpless, also lost his battle, his mouth was bleeding, and he laughed loudly, "It should be so, it should be so. I, Xu Chenzi, have been pretentious all my life, but I am convinced when I lose to you."

This internal strength competition, with Guan Yuan pitting one against two, was indeed shocking. In many previous competitions, none of them had reached the upper limit of Dacheng's innate skills.Now that he can defeat the top masters of Buddhism and Taoism, he is almost at the highest peak of today's martial arts world.

Seeing that Fang Ben was dying, Guan Yuan supported him and asked, "That day in Fuzhou, but you sent someone to snatch away the evil-preventing sword manual?"

Fang Ben closed his eyes tightly and was unable to answer. He only shook his hand to deny it.Then he clasped his hands together, lowered his head and said nothing. While Guan Yuan was still waiting for him to say something, he had already died.

This monk has been struggling with his identity all his life. Under his heroic appearance, his soul is extremely painful.At this time, I was liberated, and my face showed a faint smile, showing my Buddha nature even more.

Xu Chenzi on the right was still laughing wildly, and Guan Yuan didn't interrupt, just watching quietly.

After a while, Xu Chenzi seemed to have lost all his strength. Only his shoulders were still shaking and he could no longer laugh.His eyes were dull, as if he was thinking about something.

"Guan Yuan, do you have any brothers or sisters?"

"Have."

"How is the relationship?"

"Very good."

"That's good." Xu Chenzi was silent for a moment and said, "Zhang Yanshuo treats me very well and has taken care of me since I was a child. He and Zhenyangzi are several years older than me. If they hadn't taken me to play and hang out every day, I would have His character will become even more withdrawn."

"Then you want to steal his position as Heavenly Master?" Guan Yuan asked.

"I just want to try." Xu Chenzi is no longer proud at this moment, lowering his eyelids, "I want to try what it feels like to be noticed by everyone and stand in front of the stage. We all have the surname Zhang, why am I so unbearable? .”

"Hahaha, now that I have become a wanted criminal by the court, will the Tianshi Mansion also suffer?"

"That's not true. I heard rumors in the world that Zhang Tianshi used Longhu Mountain's thousand-year reputation to protect you. He insisted that it was Prince Ning who framed you. Jin Yiwei went to Longhu Mountain several times and took many people into custody. He I haven’t changed my tune.”

"..." Xu Chenzi did not respond, but just looked down at the Taoist robe on his body.

"Please do me a favor."

"What are you busy with?"

"Lending my head to the Jinyi Guards is an explanation to the government." Then Xu Chenzi paused, "It is also an explanation to my brother. I can't let him protect me for the rest of my life."

Guan Yuan looked directly at Xu Chenzi, without commenting. Xu Chenzi just thought he had agreed, "I bombed you once before, I hope you don't hold grudges. I have a good thing here, and I regard it as apology and reward. Just take it."

Then he took out a palm-sized sandalwood box from his arms and handed it to Guan Yuan.Then he closed his eyes, groaned, and then lost his breath. It was obvious that he had severed his own meridians.

At this time, a west wind blew in the dense forest, and the flickering of leaves seemed to be someone whispering in the ear.There are only two living people in the entire forest farm, Guan Yuan and Liang Fa. The silence makes people feel a little chilly, but their hearts are warm.

Guan Yuan collected his thoughts, stood up, and looked at Xu Chenzi in silence for a while, then stepped forward to take off the head, found some materials from the wooden house in the forest farm, and simply made a wooden box to store it.

The two simply set up tombstones for Fang Ben and Xu Chenzi, making them neighbors.
