Chapter 5 Storm

Qi Xuansu reached out and grasped the handle of the "thin tiger knife", and finally said: "I don't want to kill people, but I have to kill people. In fact, we can talk about it and take a step back."

Zhou Feilong laughed in anger: "What a joke!"

Qi Xuansu said no more and slowly pulled out the extremely bright "thin tiger knife".

The rain kept falling, falling on the eaves of the yamen gate, on the "flying squirrel armor" of the Qingluan guards, and on the back of the "thin tiger knife" in Qi Xuansu's hand. A drop of rain was split into two halves by the back of the knife, and then slowly slid down along both sides of the blade to the blade position.

When the two were reunited, Qi Xuansu began to rush forward with the knife.

Almost at the same time, the Qingluan guards standing outside the eight-character wall pulled the trigger one after another, and the arrows also drew white water lines in the rain curtain, shooting towards Qi Xuansu.

The speed of the arrows was definitely faster than Qi Xuansu's, but the sight and trigger speed of the Qingluan Guards could not keep up with Qi Xuansu, so with a series of "thump, thump, thump" sounds, these crossbow arrows fell on the big square behind Qi Xuansu without exception, and sank into the ground for more than a foot, leaving only the arrow feathers exposed outside, trembling slightly, which shows the great power of the crossbow arrows.

Qi Xuansu almost swept the distance from the big square to the steps of the county government gate.

In the sight of many Qingluan Guards, only a water line could be seen. This kind of knife method was really terrifying.

Zhou Feilong had already drawn the "thin tiger knife" at his waist at the same time as Qi Xuansu swept forward, but he held the knife horizontally in front of him.

A sharp sound of metal and stone colliding was heard.

Qi Xuansu's knife tip stabbed Zhou Feilong's knife, and then the two of them rushed into the county government one after another.

Qi Xuansu was advancing, and Zhou Feilong was retreating.

Zhou Feilong's two calves smashed the high threshold of the county government office, and his feet rubbed two visible marks on the bluestone floor, until his back hit the screen wall, knocking out a circle of spider-web-like cracks on the screen wall, and then stopped retreating.

At this time, the two were only a few feet apart. Qi Xuansu stood with his back to the light, his face completely hidden in the shadow of his hat.

Zhou Feilong looked at this young man who suddenly appeared, his face solemn, and said word by word: "Good skills."

Qi Xuansu did not speak, but took a step forward.

The entire screen wall was shattered, and the rocks flew everywhere. Qi Xuansu and Zhou Feilong also separated.

Qi Xuansu stood still and flicked the knife lightly. The blade of the "thin tiger knife" made a crisp tremor, and at the same time shook off the rain on the blade, and the water splashed lightly.

Zhou Feilong slid back more than ten feet from the position of the screen wall, and his feet splashed the accumulated water on the ground high.

Both of them stood in the rain. Although they could not decide life or death, they had already decided who was better. Qi Xuansu had an unquestionable advantage, but he just couldn't hurt Zhou Feilong.

Zhou Feilong stretched out his hand and tore off the tattered trial centurion official uniform on his body, revealing the dark soft armor underneath. After being soaked by the rain, the dark armor leaves emitted a faint dark luster.

This is the "Prison Ox Armor", which is composed of 360 armor leaves, each of which is only the size of a baby's palm and only slightly thicker than cardboard.

If the "Flying Squirrel Armor" can only defend against ordinary swords and fists, and cannot stop the true qi of the martial arts masters, then the "Prison Ox Armor" is specially used to deal with the martial arts masters' control of qi to hurt people. Just now, when the two fought, Qi Xuansu's true qi directly shattered a screen wall, but it couldn't penetrate Zhou Feilong's body at all, so Zhou Feilong only looked a little embarrassed, but he was not actually hurt at all.

Zhou Feilong's eyes were gloomy, and he raised the "thin tiger knife" in his hand, taking a defensive posture.

Qi Xuansu pulled off the wide cloak on his body and threw it into the puddles at his feet. He held the "thin tiger knife" and walked forward quickly. The "thin tiger knife" trembled slightly. If you look closely, you will find that the blade is trembling rapidly, shaking the raindrops falling on the blade into smaller water splashes.

Although both of them used the "thin tiger knife", their knife moves were completely different.

Zhou Feilong's knife was like a python, with both the viciousness of a snake and the domineering of a python.

But Qi Xuansu's knife was open and aboveboard, upright, without any fancy or treacherous.

The two "thin tiger knives" each drew an arc of water in the rain curtain, and then collided suddenly.

The violent aura vibration directly shattered the rain curtain around both sides into a vast white mist.

The next moment, a broken knife flew through the rain curtain, through the front corridor, and was nailed directly to the wall in the main hall.

Zhou Feilong groaned and retreated. His cheek was cut by the broken knife, and blood oozed out.

After stopping his retreat, he looked down at the "thin tiger knife" in his hand, which was only half broken, and was full of disbelief.

The fight between the two seemed very slow, but in fact it was just a flash. Until this time, the Qingluan guards outside the door poured in from the gate of the county government.

Without any communication, no orders, and no hesitation, these Qingluan guards directly raised the crossbows in their hands, aimed at Qi Xuansu's back, and then pulled the trigger.

The dense rain of arrows shot out again, almost blocking all of Qi Xuansu's dodging space, but this time, Qi Xuansu had no intention of dodging at all.

He just breathed in and out.

A powerful Qi gushed out from his body, like the great tide during the Dragon Boat Festival, and with overwhelming force, it deflected all the crossbow arrows that fell on him, and even his clothes were not damaged at all.

This is what is often called "Qi protecting the body" in the martial arts world.

Then Qi Xuansu stepped on the accumulated water under his feet, splashing a bunch of water, and then he turned around and waved his sleeves, and the water splashed towards the Qingluan Guards behind him at a speed no less than that of a crossbow arrow.

The Qingluan Guards at the front fell down in an instant, like crops at autumn harvest.

Qi Xuansu no longer paid attention to the Qingluan Guards behind him, and rushed towards Zhou Feilong with a knife.

This was Qi Xuansu's third knife.

The previous two knives. With the first knife, Qi Xuansu broke a screen wall. With the second knife, Qi Xuansu cut off the "thin tiger knife" in Zhou Feilong's hand.

The third knife at this time directly tore the "prison ox armor" on Zhou Feilong's body.

A cloud of blood mist exploded in Zhou Feilong's chest, and the whole person retreated again, crashed into the main hall, and finally crashed directly into the south wall of the main hall. Not far away was the half-broken knife that was blown away.

He looked at the "thin tiger knife" in Qi Xuansu's hand, and saw a layer of white light covering the entire blade, which was flowing unsteadily.

Zhou Feilong's eyes widened: "Is this sword energy?"

Condensing the true energy into sword energy and releasing it outside the body is already the scope of innate true energy. Zhou Feilong can only barely condense a trace of it without interference and for a long time. It is impossible to use it in a fierce fight with others, not to mention that the whole blade is covered with sword energy like Qi Xuansu.

Is this person an innate person?

Taoism divides the path to longevity into three major stages, named: acquired people, innate people, and heavenly people.

Acquired people are divided into two stages: cultivation and holding the elixir. At the beginning, they do not understand the great way, but only seek quick success. After old age, their qi and blood are declining, their spirit is getting weaker and weaker, their bodies are like dead wood, and their colors are like dead ashes. They can't escape death in the end.

People with innate qualities do not understand the great Dao. They get a method from the Dao, a technique from the method, and a faith and determination that never change. Their spirits become clearer and their bodies become stronger. The plagues in the world cannot harm them.

As for the celestial beings, they are already half immortal and half human in the eyes of the world.

Some soar into the clouds and fly without wings.

Some ride on dragons and clouds and ascend to the heavenly steps.

Some transform into birds and beasts and float in the blue clouds.

Some sneak in the rivers and seas and soar over famous mountains.

Some take primordial energy or eat herbs, some go in and out of the world without being recognized, and some hide themselves and no one can see them.

They have strange bones on their faces and strange hair on their bodies. They usually like to be secluded and do not associate with the common people.

It is difficult to see celestial beings in ordinary places, so people with innate qualities are already well-deserved masters.

Qi Xuansu did not answer, but just swept forward and entered the main hall from the rain.

The fourth knife is homophonic to the word "death".

In Zhou Feilong's field of vision, a light suddenly lit up, and then the light quickly grew larger. It was the tip of the "thin tiger knife".

Zhou Feilong lost his mind in an instant.

This simple knife, the swiftness of the attack, was far beyond Zhou Feilong's imagination, so that Zhou Feilong turned his mind several times, and finally found sadly that he could not avoid this knife no matter what.

However, fear gave rise to anger, and Zhou Feilong was also aroused at the last moment. At the moment when Qi Xuansu's "thin tiger knife" pierced his chest, his fists hit Qi Xuansu's chest with the force of splitting mountains and rocks.

These two punches made Qi Xuansu's body shake violently, but in the end, they did not stop the forward momentum of Qi Xuansu's knife, and still pierced Zhou Feilong's chest without any hindrance.

Qi Xuansu shook his wrist, crushing the heart and lungs of the Qingluan Guard Trial Hundred Household, completely cutting off his last chance of survival, and then he drew his sword, leaving a dazzling blood flower.

This Qingluan Guard Trial Hundred Household, who had previously said that he was uneasy, never thought that his words would come true. He capsized in Fengtai County, which he regarded as a ditch, and died with his eyes open.

If he could regret, Zhou Feilong would never come to Fengtai County.

However, in the last moment before his death, he did not hate Qi Xuansu who killed him. After all, the martial arts world is like this. Life and death are determined by fate. If he died, it was because of his own incompetence.

What really made him hate Li Sanxin, his colleague who had never helped him.

Zhou Feilong simply wanted to eat his flesh.
