Chapter 33: Too many enemies?
Many years ago, a man named "The Thousand Faces of a Man" appeared in the world.
No one knows the real name of this person. People only know that he was a rich man. When he was young, he accidentally obtained a strange book. The book records a magical art of disguise that is unparalleled in the world. Since he learned the contents of the book, he has no name or even face.
Because, when a person can become anyone, this person is no longer anyone.
The Thousand Faces Guru had the opportunity to become a martial arts legend, but he did not have that interest. This may be related to his origin. He did not always want to become famous like those grassroots. He just wanted to play in the world.
Therefore, the career of a thousand-faced man basically only did two things - accepting female apprentices and finding a confidante.
Of course you can also think that this is essentially a thing, that doesn't matter...
Due to lack of time management and physical management, this thousand-faced man died young due to kidney deficiency after becoming famous for not being active for too long after becoming famous. The strange book was lost again with his passing.
Even the women around him didn't know where he hid the book, and some even suspected that he had destroyed the book long ago.
However, some of the skills of the Thousand Faces's husband were passed down after all. After all, he has so many disciples... there are always a few who are talented and have really learned something.
To this day, most people in the world who make a living by disguise skills have been stolen from their ancestors, and 80% of them are disciples of the thousand-faced man.
For example, the one we are going to talk about next is one of them.
This person's name is Mo Zhiyu, but his age is unknown, his appearance is not clear.
Sometimes she is a graceful young woman, sometimes she is a hunched old woman, and sometimes she becomes a beautiful girl.
Some people must have remembered this... Yes, she was the mastermind behind the instructing Zeng Su, the butler of Zeng's mansion, to kill four lives in a row when she was in Luzhou. She was also the "ghost face" that attempted to sneak attack Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai in a village inn near Yingzhou.
Shuangxiu didn't know that Mo Zhiyu was actually quite good at this. She was the "spider" among the so-called "snake, scorpion, spider, toad" in the world. In terms of martial arts, she is considered a second-rate master, but her comprehensive ability besides martial arts is very strong... In addition to her amazing disguise technique, her light skills, hidden weapons, and poisonous poisons have also made great achievements.
Yes, you read that right. From a certain perspective, this person's skills are the low-end version of the Three Great Masters of the Yellow Gate.
In terms of light skills, the trick she learned is at most second-rate, but she practices diligently and can do whatever she wants.
In terms of hidden weapons, she has a unique skill - the "Liusi Soul-Broken Array", which has also appeared in the previous article. Although this formation needs to be arranged in advance, once the enemy is lured into the formation, even a first-class expert will find it difficult to escape unscathed. Of course... When she tried to use this hand to plot against Sun Huang and the others, because the roof was poked by Sun Yixi with a trident, it ended in failure.
When it comes to poison, it depends on whom: Compared with most people in the world, Mo Zhiyu's ability to poison is considered good, but compared with the Huangmen in Shu, it is "Huangmen's poison", which is not worth mentioning.
Just like this, she usually does the buying of "not opening for half a year, but eating for half a year" as if in Luzhou a few months ago, Mo Zhiyu carefully planned and made a long time to make arrangements. She wanted to use Zeng Su as a puppet to seize the Zeng family's property step by step. Unexpectedly, she had just completed the first step - "pretending to be a ghost", and held Zeng Su in her palm, and before she could further attack Mr. Zeng... she met Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai who were just out of the world.
The two of them were so flirting that she was wasted all her efforts and almost nothing was obtained, and she also lost a lot of labor and time costs.
Mo Zhiyu was so arrogant that the more he thought about it, he became more angry. He took a step back and made a mom.
So she secretly followed Sun Huang and the others, trying to kill them while they were staying in a village shop near Yingzhou overnight to take revenge.
As a result, everyone also saw it... Mo Zhiyu couldn't attack, and he was stabbed by Sun Yixie on his left foot. It was only recently that he would be cured.
Now that the injury has healed, she is going to cause trouble again.
During the recovery period, Mo Zhiyu naturally heard about Shuangxi's deeds in Luoyang. The more she listened, the more she became unhappy. She thought to herself that I knew what martial arts these two boys were. Chen Youran wanted to beat you two, and I was afraid that you could win with one hand. You two could defeat the Tianqi Gang? I was afraid that they used some secret tricks?
And after thinking about it, she felt that this was an opportunity...
Since Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai can use tricks to "deception of the world and steal fame", why can't I, Mo Zhiyu? I am a professional! If I successfully solve the problem of you two, my status in the world... will definitely rise.
Besides, compared with others, I have an advantage - not afraid of seeking revenge.
I am alone, without any sect, and have the "disguise technique" to protect myself. I can be said to be the person in the world who is least afraid of others seeking revenge. I have no worries if I kill you.
Thinking of this, Mo Zhiyu began to inquire about Shuangxiu's whereabouts.
This is not difficult, because Sun Huanglei and the other two did not deliberately conceal their identities and used their real names everywhere, and they also publicly competed with others, which was very high-profile. Therefore, just when the three of them arrived in Xinyang, they were finally caught up by Mo Zhiyu.
The three of them had no idea that they had been targeted by others, and they could not know because they had no idea what Mo Zhiyu looked like, and even if they stood in front of them, they could not know that this was here to seek revenge.
Mo Zhiyu also made good use of this, observed them in the dark for a long time, and confirmed that these three people were indeed not wary of them, so he decided... to do it tonight.
The last time, the reason why she pretended to be a scary person was because she felt that she had a great advantage and wanted to play with these two kids first, but unexpectedly, she capsized in the gutter and fell on a "treasure weapon".
After learning from the lesson last time, she learned her lesson this time. She didn't plan to mess with those fancy ones this time, so she just put some cigarettes on her to make her dizzy target, and then went in and took a few puffs to get it done.
In this way, it was night in a blink of an eye.
Mo Zhiyu put on his night-walking clothes, covered it with a blow tube that puts a smoke, and then brought a fine iron dagger contained in the shark's skin sheath, and then set off.
Her light and agile figure cut through the night sky, and she walked along the eaves and walls, and soon arrived near the inn where Shuangxie was staying.
However, she was still across the street and before she could step on the roof of the inn, she saw that there was already someone on the roof over there...
The man was wearing a night-riding clothes, covering his face, with a blow tube on the left side of the belt, and a fine iron dagger placed in the shark's skin sheath on the right side, and was sneaking out the tiles on the roof of the inn.
Mo Zhiyu came to step on some in advance, so she knew at a glance...below the tiles was the room of the three.
"What's the situation? There are still robberies in this transaction?" Mo Zhiyu was also stunned, and didn't know how to deal with it for a moment.
Just as she was stunned, suddenly another man in black came. The man did not wear a blow tube or a dagger, but was wearing black clothes and masked. He floated up with his high light skills and fell directly to the person who was lifting the tiles.
The appearance of this person obviously shocked the brother who had lifted the tiles. The latter took advantage of the situation and put down his work, turned back and took a vigilant attitude.
So who are these two?
The one who came first was the "shadowless sword" Zhao Tiaotiao. He was already ready to smoke, but he didn't expect someone to suddenly approach.
The one that came later was Tang Fu, the White Tiger Banner of the Five Spirits Sect. Since the Runan City caught up with Shuangxie again, the people of the Five Spirits Sect have been secretly tracking and monitoring them. Tonight, it was Tang Fu's turn to "on night shift" himself. Before he tricked Gu Qiying's "notes", Tang Fu didn't want anything to happen to Huang Donglai, so he had to show up at this moment.
"Friend, I advise you to give up on your idea of beating them." After a brief silence, Tang Fu spoke first, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he made a request that the other party was very difficult to deal with.
Tang Fu didn't know that Zhao Tiaotiao was a pursuer sent by Song De. He thought that this was a thief who learned through some channel that Sun Yixi and the others had huge sums of money and came to make money at night to kill him, so he said so.
"Who are you?" Zhao Tiaotiao asked nervously, staring at the other party.
Logically speaking, with Zhao Tiaoteng's intelligence, he shouldn't have asked such a poor question. The reason why he asked was because his heart was a little confused at this moment.
It is not that it is that "the action is interrupted", but that it is that it is that it is that "the lightness of the visitor is above oneself."
"Ha..." Tang Fu smiled, "If I could let you know who I am, why would I still be masked?"
When he smiled like this, Zhao Tiaotiao knew that he was wrong, and then laughed and said, "Ha... it's right, it's me that's not good, I said nonsense."
After these two sentences were said, Zhao Tiaotiao had calmed down again. After he had calmed his thoughts, he said again: "Then I will change my question..." He paused for a moment and said in a deep voice, "What does it have to do with them?"
"Hmph..." Tang Fu snorted coldly, "Because I want to find them too."
In the night sky, Mo Zhiyu was far away, and his ears were fully opened. Listening to the conversation between the two, he thought to himself: "How many enemies do these two grandsons have? I have been living in the world for more than ten years. It is the first time I have been seeking revenge to find a feeling of "I will be gone if I come late."
She was thinking about it here, but she could start to move.
"Then there is nothing to say..." After Zhao Tiaoqiong received Tang Fu's response, he realized that this matter was not discussed at all, so he said, "The rules of the world, the two compete for one, and those with higher skills will get..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw the eyebrows on his face frowned.
In an instant, his internal strength was secretly motivated and his momentum was accomplished.
The next second, he pulled the sword technique with his left hand, and a little fingertips, and the cold light appeared and the sword energy suddenly emerged.
Why is the "shadowless sword" "shadowless"? Because Zhao Tiaoqiong's sword technique does not use the physical "sword".
As mentioned earlier, the "swordsman"-level masters on the Green Forest Road are "without swords", which means that all characters of this level have mastered the skills of internal and external release.
Of course, there are many people in the Jianghu Road who can "release internal forces". Theoretically, as long as you can blow out some palm wind, it will have a little impact on things at a long distance, but the power of internal forces after releasing is another matter.
Some people use their skills for a long time, shout and blew out a palm, only a few leaves were blown away and a few branches were broken. What does that mean? It means that your internal strength is not good enough. After the internal energy is released, not only does it not have enough, but it also disperses like fart.
For a more powerful person, with one palm blowing out, it can leave a clear palm print on a tree trunk or stone several meters away. This means that the internal strength is excellent, so after the internal force is released from the outside, it can still remain condensed at a certain distance, so that it will naturally have great power when hitting something.
What's more powerful? You have to count Zhao Tiaotiao... The internal force he released was not determined by the fist or palm print he shot, but was determined by a specific way of exercising his power.
"Shadowless Sword" is a sword technique that uses the external internal force as a "flying sword".
Because the internal force is "sword" when leaving the body, the destructive power is naturally like a sharp blade, and it will be injured when it is rubbed. If it is in the right direction, it will be poked into a bleeding hole... Simply put, it is no different from being stabbed by a real sword.
But the real sword is held in the user's hand, and the shadowless sword is a "flying sword", so there are many moves that cannot be achieved by "holding the sword".
Faced with such martial arts, even Tang Fu did not dare to be proud. Although his White Tiger Palm was excellent and his internal lightness was above Zhao Tiaoteng, when facing the invisible sword, Tang Fu was not sure of "catching it", so he could only dodge first and act accordingly.
