Chapter 408 Something bad happened
“Of course, if you really don’t dare to challenge in front of so many colleagues, I will also...”
After Tang Zhao dropped the letter of challenge, he said to himself But after hearing the word "good", the voice suddenly stopped!
She was stunned for a moment and looked at the owner of Lihuatang in surprise. She had the urge to pick out her ears for a moment:
"You... agreed?"
Zhao Duan held the waist tag between his fingers, twisted his wrist, and threw it back. The corners of his mouth raised:
"What else?"
In private, the frontier army said "stuff it up" Tang Zhao, known as "Rouge Horse", was speechless for a moment, and his sharp eyes lost their aggressive edge.
This is slightly different from what she imagined. This guy agreed too readily...
She originally expected that Zhao Duan would try even to maintain his dignity in front of his subordinates. He tried to avoid making a move with himself, but this guy nodded quickly, even as if he couldn't wait.
"General Tang, we can't use it here, how about you follow me to the central square of the Yamen?"
Zhao Duan stretched out his arm and made a "please" gesture.
"This is the best." Tang Zhao raised his chin and raised his hand to grab the horse on the table.
I secretly thought that this person was overestimating his own abilities. He probably thought that he was a woman, so he underestimated the enemy.
It’s okay, I’ll make him look embarrassed in public later so that I can regain my reputation for my little brother.
The two of them walked one behind the other, surrounded by the people in Lihuatang's brocade clothes, and went straight out of the hall, heading to a small square in Zhaoyamen. When they arrived, people in other halls also learned the news and rushed to watch the excitement. .
When they learned that Zhao Duan was going to compete with Tang Zhao, the second daughter of the Duke of Zhen, they were all shocked.
"Zhao Jisi is too impulsive. Tang Zhao is a real military general with a magical medal. How long has it been since he broke through?"
After hearing the news, King Juan stood in the crowd. Zhang Han frowned.
Besides, Haitang, the leader of Narcissus Hall, walked over with long legs, suspicion appearing on his face dotted with tear marks:
"I don't think so. When have you ever seen this slick guy named Zhao suffer a loss?"
Haitang once went to Huting with Zhao Duan. Although he never saw him take action, he knew that Zhao Duan An has entered the middle-grade realm.
"This..." Zhang Han and other Jin Yi looked at each other in shock upon hearing this, unable to refute, and all turned their attention to the center of the square.
Someone whispered in a low voice:
"Isn't it Zhao Jisi who has a trump card? For example, a powerful counterweight? But in military competitions, it is forbidden to use those foreign objects. If you rely on counterweights, It’s not honorable to win.”
On the field.
At this moment, the two of them have stood still, and the surroundings have become silent in a tacit understanding.
Tang Zhao was filled with anger and a no-nonsense mood. He held a thick and dark horse spear in both hands, took a bow and sunk his knees, and locked his eyes on the pretty face holding the Frost Sword in one hand. The edge of his boots Suddenly a circle of dust opened up.
The whole person rushed forward, the tip of the horse's spear was piercing with cold light, and it went straight to Zhao Duan's throat!
“Woo——”
The cold wind broke through, and a low explosion erupted in the air.
At this moment, Zhao Duan saw in a trance that the opposite woman did not seem to be a woman fighting on foot, but a female general riding a fierce horse and charging in front of the formation!
“So fast!”
Zhao Duan’s head shuddered, and he changed from extremely still to extremely dynamic. Normally, the divine seal would take at least two breaths to complete, but Tang Zhao only took In the blink of an eye.
Without any hesitation, Zhao Duan didn't even think at this moment.
In the past few months, the life-and-death experience of being tortured and killed by Pei Niannu countless times in the "Six Chapters" had already made him imprint many battle-ready tactics into his instincts.
He rotated his wrist, and the Frost Sword was unsheathed. The bright sword body covered with cold mist collided with the horse at a speed that was hard to catch, and pulled out an afterimage.
“Ding, ding, ding…”
Every time, the sword edge avoids the tip of the horse, but cuts on the side, removing the force and disrupting the trajectory of the horse’s thrust. Zhao Duan leaned back, his boots leaving faint traces on the ground, and he retreated violently!
One inch is longer and one inch is stronger. Even if you are a practicing martial artist, the innate gap in weapons cannot be made up in an instant.
When he drew his sword for the fifty-third time, Ma Shan's overwhelming momentum finally dropped. Zhao Duan twisted his body and stepped sideways. The blade of the sword pressed against Ma Shan's dark gun barrel and sliced forward with a "chichi" sound.
Tang Zhao's face turned cold, and he shook his arms violently. The entire gun shaft vibrated violently, and the head and tail of the gun turned in a circle. The majestic Qi Machine was infused with it, and illusory flames suddenly spewed out from the surface of the gun shaft.
She stood still, using her waist as the "big axis", her body rotating like a thousand-ton millstone, sweeping across thousands of armies, and smashed the Frost Sword in a thrilling arc with a strong force!
"Bang——"
Zhao Duan held the hilt of the sword, and the sword suddenly rebounded several feet to the side. He did not resist forcefully, but fell like a falling leaf. He was swept out by the horse to the edge of the small square.
There was originally a water tank here, but it was abandoned for several cold winters. The water in the tank froze into an ice mass, and the surface was covered with light snow.
Zhao Duan landed lightly next to the water tank, his sleeves trembling "pop-pa", he drew an arc with the long sword in his hand, and struck the tank horizontally with the sword blade.
“Buzz!”
Everyone heard a trembling sound in their ears, and then they saw the half-human-high water tank being whipped away by Zhao Duan like a top, whining off the ground and spinning. Tang Zhao sprinted towards Tang Zhao, who was holding his spear for the second time like a cannonball.
“What’s the point of just hiding? It’s indeed an embroidered pillow with a silver-like pewter gun tip.”
Tang Zhao sneered and did not dodge. He stabbed out with Ma Shu, and the heavy water tank broke into pieces with a "boom". The broken tiles flew towards the crowds in all directions like shrapnel, and the frozen lumps of ice inside were also shattered and reduced to pieces. For countless ice cubes.
After the shell was broken, the unfrozen water inside was also dancing in the sky.
Seeing this, Zhao Duan had an impulse to use the "Black Turtle Seal" for a moment.
As long as he wanted to, he could turn the ice water flying in the sky into bullets and beat the Tang Zhao enveloped in it into a sieve.
But the thought only appeared for a moment, and he pressed it down. There was no need to expose a trump card like the Black Turtle Seal that outsiders had no way of knowing. But that doesn't mean giving up the opportunity.
"Qiang!"
A thin line of dark gold suddenly wrapped around and slid out from the cuff of Zhao Duan's sword with great force. The Golden Crow flying knife followed the blade of the Frost Sword, as if sliding into the recess of the ballistic launch track. The slotted missile roared out.
"Sneak attack?"
Tang Zhao raised his eyebrows, faced the icy rain, swung the tip of his horse's spear, and knocked the flying knife away with a ding!
Zhao Duan took the opportunity to suddenly close the distance and approached with his sword. At the same time, two pale flames suddenly appeared in the depths of his pupils!
Spell: Spirit Flame!
“Hmph!”
The energetic Tang Zhao was caught off guard. He felt that his heart seemed to be grasped by invisible hands, causing intense pain from the inside out.
The face instantly turned into a "mask of pain", and the seamless movement was forced to interrupt.
The horse in his hand was unsteady, and Zhao Duan swung the horse away with his swords several times, until the man was close.
Once the long weapon was close, it became a burden. The pain of the spirit flame only lasted for a moment, and Tang Zhao used her cultivation to resist. She decisively discarded the weapon, and her fists were covered with thick aura like flowing flames.
"Clang, clang, clang..."
Fists and swords collided, but this time, Rao Shi's energy was much stronger than Zhao Duan, but Tang Zhao faced the latter who had the advantage of weapons. , fell into the downwind, and after several collisions, several layers of Gang Qi on the body surface were cut off.
"It seems you are not as strong as you appear." Zhao Duan opened the microphone and taunted.
Tang Zhao's face was expressionless. Suddenly, blood-colored lines appeared on her slender neck from the collar, and in the blink of an eye, they spread to half of her face.
"Evil spirit!"
In the crowd, Haitang's eyes were sharp, "Is this the secret technique of Zhenguo Gong's family to hide the evil spirit of blood in the body during the military formation?"
Zhao Duan listened. There was no one around to watch the discussion among his colleagues, but he could clearly see that Tang Zhao, who was bare-handed, had a column of light red air steaming around his body, like a wolf smoke, rising several feet into the air.
At the same time, he suddenly felt a strong fear, as if he was walking in the mountains and being stared at by a bloodthirsty beast.
Behind Tang Zhao, the wisps of reddish evil aura were vaguely condensed into an illusory liger with a leopard head and eyes, looking down at him coldly, lying on the ground with all four limbs, making a slaying gesture.
"What a weird thing..." Zhao Duan retreated decisively, his figure pulled out the afterimage and retreated three feet.
Then, before everyone could react, he suddenly saw his free left hand making a hand gesture on his chest, making a "nianhua" handprint.
In the sea of consciousness, the green lotus sways gently.
"Blocking Curse!"
A Buddhist inscription with the word "卍" lingering in a faint glow quietly came out of the air.
He pointed his left hand forward and exhaled: "Feng!"
The Buddhist characters with the character "卍" expanded to the height of a person in his breath. In the astonished eyes of people, the strokes of the Buddhist characters seemed like The living creatures actually squirmed and broke free from the original text structure.
Scattered into several chains condensed with Buddha's light, they covered Tang Zhao's head with dull eyes!
……
……
Outside the town's official residence.
The young master Tang Ping rode a horse and walked towards the front door of the mansion with a slightly excited mood.
It stands to reason that when the Duke comes back today, he should go to greet him or wait at home.
But Tang Ping's stubborn temper did not allow him to exercise such privileges and leave the military camp without authorization.
Instead, he completed his daily duties in the camp. Only then, under the urging of the commander Shi Meng who was almost dumbfounded, did he hand over the leave request and ride home.
"Master! You are back! The master has already entered the house." The servants guarding the door hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.
Tang Ping smiled slightly, stood up and dismounted: "How are father and second sister? Where are they at home?"
The servant said: "The master is in the east wing, and second sister has not returned home yet."
Tang Ping was stunned for a moment: "The second sister didn't come back to Beijing?"
The servant explained: "She came back, but the second sister went to the imperial office and said she had to do some things before coming back. ”
The imperial office... was doing business... The young master was stunned for a moment, and then his expression suddenly changed: "Not good!"
Then, in front of the servant's blank eyes, he got on his horse, turned the horse's head, and ran wildly in the direction of the imperial edict. .
But he happened to bump into a group of officials who came to the Duke's Mansion on horseback to pay a visit. Tang Ping's eyes lit up and he hurried over and said quickly:
"Ma Du Gong, where is Mr. Zhao? ?”
Ma Yan was stunned for a moment and had a bad feeling:
"He has gone back to the Yamen. We are about to go into the mansion to see the Duke. Young Master, what are you..."
Tang Pian's skin trembled and he quickly described the situation. He learned that the second son of the Tang family When the young lady went to the imperial office, all the officials were shocked and had some bad guesses.
"...Oops." Ma Yan's breath tightened, and without any time to think, he immediately changed his mount and, together with Tang Ping, rushed towards the Yamen:
"I hope that boy won't be impulsive... ..."
Only a group of officials were left looking at each other: "Oh, no..."
