Suzhou, Tang Mansion.
On a moonlit night, a handsome scholar stood by the pond, shaking his head and sighing from time to time.
"Alas! My heart is sad and painful~
Eight wives are like jackals and tigers.
People think I have all the blessings.
In fact, who knows the emptiness and loneliness
Who knows~"
Da! Stop the music!
A simple tune sung by the scholar reveals the endless sadness in his heart.
His face was bitter as he looked at the beautiful moonlight over the lotus pond in front of him. If it were any other time, he might have suddenly been inspired to write poetry.
Any poem he wrote would become a treasure that all the dignitaries in Suzhou City would fight to get!
But now he has no interest at all.
At this moment, he felt an immense loneliness in his heart. He longed so much for a sincere love to be placed before him...
“Tap tap…”
Suddenly, the scholar's ears moved and his face darkened.
"Who?"
He shouted loudly and looked around vigilantly.
“Swish, swish, swish!”
Just as he finished speaking, three masked men in black, holding swords, jumped out from the darkness and surrounded him.
"Excuse me, sir, but is this Tang Bohu, one of the Four Great Talents of Jiangnan?"
The leading man in black clasped his fists.
The scholar looked at the three black-clad swordsmen, smirked, and said, "Haha! I am Tang Bohu!"
The leading man in black nodded, and immediately, three black-clad swordsmen drew their swords and pointed them at Tang Bohu.
"We are looking for Tang Bohu! Kill him!"
Tang Bohu put his hands behind his back, sneered, and said, "Don't blame me for being too frank!
You are just a bunch of rotten sweet potatoes and stinky bird eggs, and you want to take my life? That's too much of a joke!"
Before he could finish his words, his expression suddenly changed. He saw the three black-clad swordsmen lightly tap their feet, and the cold sword lights were as fast as lightning, piercing his body all over in an instant!
"What a fast sword!"
He was horrified and hurriedly threw out the folding fan in his hand like lightning, hoping to block it for a moment.
“Swish!”
The folding fan instantly broke into pieces, and three sword lights appeared in the blink of an eye.
"puff!!"
Tang Bohu narrowly avoided the fatal blow. Looking at his torn robe, he broke out in a cold sweat and was filled with fear.
"These three are highly skilled in martial arts, get out of the way!"
Tang Bohu let out a strange cry and dived into the pond.
There were splashes of water in the pond, and after a few bubbles appeared, the whole pond became silent.
The three black-clad swordsmen stood by the pond and did not pursue the victory.
At this time, a man in blue appeared from the darkness and slowly walked to the edge of the pond.
He couldn't help laughing as he listened to the familiar lines Tang Bohu uttered before he escaped.
"Haha! It's definitely Stephen Chow's style!"
…
The next day, Tang Bohu told his mother Zhu Qian about his encounter with the enemy last night, and Zhu Qian's face changed instantly.
"Did you reject Prince Ning's offer, so he sent someone to assassinate you?"
Tang Bohu blew the paper ball out of his nostrils, shook his head, and said firmly: "Impossible, Prince Ning already knows that I have a terminal illness and will not live long. It can't be him!"
"That……"
"I think it must be the deadly scholar who competed with my father for the ranking in the weapons list!" Tang Bohu said again.
Zhu Xi asked in confusion, "Why do you think so?"
Tang Bohu stood up and recalled, "Those three had superb swordsmanship, especially one of them!
That sword technique is even faster than a ghost, swift as the wind, and extremely similar to the sword technique of the legendary fatal scholar! "
"I guess! It must be the Deadly Scholar Sword. He sent his fellow apprentices to kill me in order to test my martial arts skills.
Let's see if I can threaten his second-ranked position in the Weapon List!"
Zhu Qian nodded slowly, "Bo Hu, you have a point, but he failed to assassinate me last night, so you must be careful next time!"
Tang Bohu threw his head back and laughed, "Hahahahahaha, it was just my carelessness last night, and I didn't bring my Tang family Overlord Spear with me, that's why they almost succeeded!
If I had held the Overlord Spear at that time, even if the Deadly Scholar Sword had come personally, there would have been no way he could have done anything to me!"
…
It was a dark and windy night. Tang Bohu was stopped in the backyard by a swordsman in black, his face ashen.
"Hey! You despicable villain! You've repeatedly made fun of me, Tang Bohu. Do you really think I'm made of clay?"
The black-clad swordsman laughed and said, "Stop talking nonsense and look at the sword!"
"brush!!"
The long sword stabbed repeatedly, the sword light flashed, and the sharp sword energy surged out, and Tang Bohu's face changed drastically.
"boom!"
The silver spear in his hand cut through the air, and he swung the spear violently, opening and closing it, smashing towards the man in black.
“Swish!”
The man in black swung his sword and made a few sword flowers. The entire gun barrel was instantly cut into the thickness of a brush, and then broke resolutely.
"Damn it! Despicable!"
Tang Bohu threw down the broken gun, took out a few black marbles from his arms, and smashed them to the ground.
"Bang!!"
White mist burst out, and the scene was instantly filled with fog.
"call……"
The black-clad swordsman casually slapped out with his palm, and the strong palm wind blew away the white mist, and Tang Bohu had long disappeared.
"Haha! If the chess master hadn't ordered you not to kill me, your low-rate tricks wouldn't be worthy of being put on the stage!"
The man in black raised his orchid finger slightly and smiled coldly.
…
"Mom! I'm being blocked again!"
"Ah! Bo Hu! Are you okay?"
…
In the dim night, Tang Bohu, holding an iron silver spear, stood facing a man in black.
"Humph! Today, I, Tang Bohu, will avenge my previous humiliation!"
