Chapter 73: Sunrise in the East
Song Qingshu and Jiumozhi looked at each other with disapproval, wondering how high-powered the masters of the Qing court could be.
As the chief guard of the imperial guards, Duolong's martial arts are just like that. Although the imperial guards like Zhang Kangnian and Zhao Qixian are a little bit better than ordinary soldiers in martial arts, they are not enough for real masters.
It is conceivable that there are so few masters in the Qing court. Song Qingshu has always been curious, why was Kangxi able to live so long under the protection of such a group of unreliable imperial guards?
"I wonder which master in the world the emperor is recruiting?" Song Qingshu asked with a slight smile.
"Will you please invite the Master of the East soon?" Kangxi ordered, and the young eunuch Wen Youdao on the side quickly ran down.
"Uh, Dongfang Cult Leader?" Song Qingshu's smile stopped suddenly, and he was filled with doubts: Could it be Dongfang Invincible?
Not long after, as the door to the imperial study room opened, a man in red slowly walked in.
With a calm look, he didn't even look at the other people in the room. He just gave a slight salute to Kangxi: "Dongfang has seen the emperor."
Ever since he came in, Song Qingshu had been staring at him, and saw that his lips were red and his teeth were white, and his face was soft and charming like a woman's. He couldn't tell how old he was. On the surface, he looked like a handsome young man, but his calm demeanor reminded him all the time. Ask people around you not to be fooled by his youthful appearance.
When he opened his mouth, all the fantasies in Song Qingshu's mind were shattered. He had always guessed whether the Dongfang Bubai in this world was a beautiful woman like the movie version or the disgusting dead ladyboy in the TV series version.
When Dongfang Bubai first came in, Song Qingshu only felt that he looked like a woman, and he was secretly delighted, but when the other party opened his mouth, the deep male voice made his whole body explode.
As if thoughtful, Dongfang Bubai looked back at him. As soon as he made eye contact with the other party, Song Qingshu felt a chill in his heart, as if he had seen through him.
"Master Dongfang, these two are the top experts I have recruited recently, one is Tubo Dalunming King Jiumozhi, and the other is Song Qingshu and Song Shaoxia." Kangxi stood up while speaking, and introduced to the two: "Two This is the leader of the Eastern Cult of the Sun and Moon God Sect in Heimuya."
Dongfang Bubai didn't even bother to look at the two of them, and sneered: "When did the top masters become so worthless?"
Kangxi did not feel dissatisfied, but watched with interest how Song Qingshu and the two responded.
"Xiao Guizi, let's take a gamble to see if the master you find is better or the master I find is better." Although Kangxi has begun to have the image of a wise gentleman, he is still a young man at heart, and he even compares himself with Wei Xiaobao on a whim.
"Of course it's Xiaoxuanzi, you've found a master." Although Wei Xiaobao flattered him like this, he didn't take it seriously in his heart. He had seen the martial arts of Jiumozhi and Song Qingshu before, and beat Hong An, who was shocked by himself before, to the point of shit, Xiaoxuanzi The guy I'm looking for is neither a man nor a woman. He doesn't have any fighting ability at first glance.
"Your grandfather, I know you definitely don't think so in your heart." Seeing Wei Xiaobao's expression, Kangxi understood, and couldn't help snorting, "If I lose, I will make you an earl, hereditary replacement; hehe, If you lose, just donate some money to help with disaster relief."
"As a gentleman, no horse can be chased!" Wei Xiaobao's eyes lit up and he said immediately.
"It's hard to chase any horse!" Kangxi nodded seriously.
...
Although the two of them deliberately lowered their voices and whispered in each other's ears, the three of them in the arena were extremely skilled, and the conversation between the two of them was heard by the three of them verbatim.
A bright light flashed in Dongfang Bubai's eyes, and he slowly closed his eyes and began to rest his mind. Song Qingshu and Jiumozhi looked at each other and understood Kangxi's intention.
Although these people are very famous in Jianghu, Kangxi has never met them in person, and he has always held some doubts. Taking advantage of this opportunity to let Dongfang Bubai try their kung fu, it may not be impossible for them to verify. Let's look at Dongfang Bubai Jinliang's thoughts.
Song Qingshu is okay, influenced by various TV dramas and movies, he was too impressed with Dongfang Bubai's martial arts and invincibility. He didn't get angry when he heard him sarcasm himself. The level of growth is naturally far inferior to that of Song. However, Song thinks it is more than enough to deal with ordinary people in the world."
"Your Excellency, at such a young age, is able to say the words 'Heaven and man transform into life, all things grow'. It's not bad, not bad, very good." Dongfang Bubai glanced at him in amazement, and clicked his tongue in amazement.
Jiumozhi on the side doesn't have such good endurance. He himself is an amazing and brilliant person, and he asked himself that apart from the master Padmasambhava who lived in seclusion for decades in Tubo and practiced in retreat at Nyingma Monastery, no one is as good as him. his opponent. This time he came to Central Plains, Xuan Bei, an eminent monk from Shaolin Temple, a master from Duan Clan in Dali, Murong from Gusu, etc., all of them were very proud of themselves and felt that Central Plains Wulin was nothing more than that.
Hearing Dongfang Bubai's sarcasm this time, he couldn't help but get angry secretly, and said with a sneer, "I just don't know if the name Dongfang Hierarch was chosen like this since childhood, or was it changed the day after tomorrow?"
Dongfang Bubai glanced at him indifferently: "Of course it is changed the day after tomorrow. What do you think?"
"What a loud tone!" Jiumozhi only felt that the other party was extremely arrogant. Although he had long heard that Dongfang Bubai on Blackwood Cliff was qualified to aspire to the reputation of 'the best in the world', he was very confident in his own martial arts. , during this period, he had met too many people with false reputations, and secretly thought that Dongfang Bubai's reputation probably had a lot of water in it.
"You can try." Dongfang Bubai put his hands behind his back and said casually with his head lowered.
"I've offended you!" If it weren't for important matters, Jiumozhi might have visited the most famous masters in the Central Plains martial arts community one after another. This time facing one of them, Dongfang Bubai, Jiumozhi suddenly felt a surge of fighting spirit. .
During the insurance period, Jiumozhi was not in a hurry to attack. Instead, he tentatively pushed out a flaming knife.
"Huh? I have some skills." Feeling the invisible sword energy from the opponent, Dongfang Bubai finally opened his eyes, and the shadow flashed and disappeared.
Jiumozhi had not yet woken up from the shock of the sword slashing into the air. Suddenly his heart skipped a beat and he quickly waved his hand to his side.
"Go away, you actually know the seventy-two stunts of Shaolin?" Dongfang Bubai appeared a few feet away and glanced at Jiumozhi in surprise.
"The poor monk is not talented. Although he is far from proficient, the poor monk happens to know a little bit of each of the seventy-two unique skills of Shaolin." When the two moves hit the empty space, Jiumozhi suddenly became more energetic and guarded against the opponent with all his strength. .
"What a shameless statement!" Dongfang Bubai snorted coldly, naturally not believing that someone could practice the seventy-two stunts of the Shaolin Temple at the same time.
"Master Dongfang, let's try the poor monk's phaseless calamity finger." Jiumozhi stretched out his right index finger, quickly drew a circle in the air, and shot away with a fiery finger wind.
Dongfang Bubai smiled coldly and disappeared in an instant. Jiumozhi's phaseless calamity finger shot directly onto the pillar behind him, leaving a deep, charred hole.
Kangxi was stunned and said, "Xiao Guizi, this Dalun Mingwang's martial arts is really good..."
"Hmm..." Wei Xiaobao responded casually, but was attracted by the fierce fighting in the field.
Dongfang Bubai's figure is like a ghost, coming and going erratically, like blue smoke. Jiumozhi didn't want to hit him with a phaseless calamity finger. Instead, he took advantage of him to dodge and shook the monk's robe away, trapping the red shadow like a big net.
"Cassock Demon Subduing Technique?" Dongfang Bubai felt the force of his palms coming towards him from all directions on the other monk's robe. A cold light flashed in his eyes, and a thin needle slipped out between his fingers. With a flick of his finger, it pricked it. In front of me, the cassock shot towards Jiumozhi.
Although Jiumozhi didn't see clearly what was ejected, the alarm bell rang loudly in his heart, and he quickly turned over like an iron bridge. Even so, the needle still left a trace of blood between his eyebrows.
The cassock's aura was broken, and Jiumozhi's avoidance caused it to lose its follow-up power, and suddenly fell to the ground softly like a piece of rags.
"Great monk, if you still have any skills, just use them." Dongfang Bubai looked at Jiumozhi with a smile and said.
Seeing Dongfang Bubai's ghostly speed, Jiumozhi's eyes tightened, and instead of attacking, he guarded the door tightly.
"Haha, since you won't attack, I won't be polite." As soon as he finished speaking, Dongfang Bubai transformed into a red shadow and quickly started fighting around Jiumozhi.
"Xiao Guizi, can you see clearly how they are fighting?" Kangxi was so fed up with it that he couldn't see anything except a red shadow that flickered left and right in his eyes.
"I can't see clearly either, I can only hear the swishing sound of true energy breaking through the air." Wei Xiaobao stared at everything in front of him with his mouth open.
"Nianhua Finger, Duo Luo Ye Finger, Dragon Claw Hand, Shadow-like Leg, Universe in the Sleeve, Nirvana Grasp, Moko Finger, Vajra Fist, Prajna Palm... Great Monk, could it be that you really know the seventy-two unique skills of Shaolin?" ?" The voice of Dongfang Bubai in the battle group was obviously quite surprised, "Hey, no, your luck method is wrong."
Jiumozhi, however, was forced by him to say nothing. He kept a sullen face and kept dealing with the red figures around him. The opponents were often separated from him at the first touch, but Jiumozhi spent most of his attacks on empty space.
For decades, Jiumozhi had never fought such a frustrating battle. The opponent's martial arts skills were clearly on par with his own, but just because of a quick word, he was completely defeated.
Now that the other party saw the flaw, Jiumozhi no longer used the unique skills of Shaolin Temple, and resorted to his housekeeping skill - the flame knife.
"This invisible sword energy is really interesting. It's long and short, empty and real..." After the fight, Dongfang Bubai was so impressed by it that he was almost injured by the opponent's sword energy several times.
"King Ming, I think you can admit defeat. The leader of the Eastern Cult looks like lightning and thunder, and he strikes without any warning. If you guard for a long time, you will miss something." Song Qingshu saw that Jiumozhi's moves on the field seemed to have begun to show. Feeling tired, he quickly opened his mouth to help.
