Chapter 166: Instant Kill
"Master Peng!"
"Brother Haolin, you're here!"
"Oh, the young master of Baima Manor is here too!"
Everyone came forward and greeted him.
Soon, someone raised his arm and pointed in Fang Zhixing's direction.
Peng Haolin's eyes fell on Fang Zhixing, and he walked over quickly, shouting, "Fang Maofu, right? I heard you're very arrogant. Come on, let's have a fight and see what strength you have."
Fang Zhixing suppressed his anger, lowered his head, and said, "Master Peng, rumors kill people. They are all rumors. Please don't believe them."
Peng Haolin waved his hand and said, "I don't care whether it's a rumor or not. Only after the fight can we know how powerful you are, right?"
At this time, Feng Xingkan suddenly came over and interrupted, "Peng Haolin, that's enough, don't bully an honest man.
To tell you the truth, he has just admitted defeat to me in front of everyone.
Humph, you don't think that defeating my defeated opponent can prove that you are as strong as me, right? "
"Mr. Feng, I will cut off this poisonous tongue of yours sooner or later."
Peng Haolin was furious, rolled up his sleeves, and shouted, "Come on, let's fight now to see who's better."
Feng Xingkan said disdainfully, "You? Forget it. I need to save some energy to deal with Xue Nanjie. You can just go and have fun."
Peng Haolin sneered, "You are just a coward. I don't want to bother with you."
He turned to Fang Zhixing again and said without hesitation: "Well, you fight with my followers and let me see what level you are at."
As soon as he finished speaking, a middle-aged strong man came up from behind Peng Haolin. He was over 1.9 meters tall, strong and burly, with a long knife on his waist.
Peng Haolin introduced: "His name is Ding Liping. Let me tell you something. He practices the magic skill "Blood-Transforming Sword Technique" and his cultivation level is at the second bird realm."
Then, he stared at Fang Zhixing and sneered, "You can't even beat a Level 2 Bird Realm, right?"
Ding Liping then stepped forward, raised his chin, sneered, and cupped his hands, saying, "Master Fang, please give me some advice."
Fang Zhixing looked around the hall.
Everyone looked at him, even Wu Hongye just watched coldly, without any intention of dissuading him.
Seeing this, Fang Zhixing remained silent for a moment, his expression gradually calmed down, and he said seriously: "What if I lose, what if I win?"
Ding Liping couldn't help but laugh and said, "Oh, you still want to gamble?"
Fang Zhixing calmly asked back: "You don't dare to gamble?"
Seeing this, Ding Liping was stunned for a moment. The arrogance on his face subsided slightly and he looked at Peng Haolin.
"Tell me, what do you want?"
Peng Haolin stood with his hands behind his back and said nonchalantly.
Fang Zhixing said frankly: "I like to collect some strange stones. I just saw a lot of turtle-patterned stones in the pond over there, which are quite beautiful.
If I win this competition, I hope Master Peng can reward me with 100 pieces of turtle-patterned stones."
"What stone?"
Peng Haolin blinked. He had never heard of turtle-patterned stone, and couldn't help but look out the window.
Then, everyone heard Wu Hongye say with a smile: "No problem, there are plenty of turtle-patterned stones in my pond, you can choose whatever you want."
Peng Haolin didn't take it too seriously when he heard this.
After all, as they are both small families, the good things that the Wu family has must also be available to his Peng family, so he can just return the favor.
"What if you lose?" Peng Haolin asked.
Fang Zhixing said calmly, "I'll leave it to you, young master."
"good!"
Peng Haolin laughed three times with satisfaction, then an idea struck him, and he said excitedly, "If you lose, you will crawl under the crotches of all the guests."
Fang Zhixing felt murderous intent surge in his heart.
Ding Liping picked up the knife and said coldly, "No other questions, right? Let's go out and fight."
He strode out of the hall first.
Fang Zhixing followed.
The two stood on the lawn in the yard, facing each other in the drizzle.
Wu Hongqiu and others either stood under the eaves or climbed to the second floor to watch the fight.
"please!"
Ding Liping's eyes widened, his muscles began to wriggle, and his body grew larger invisibly.
Swish! There was a loud clanging sound!
Ding Liping suddenly drew his sword from its sheath, turned sideways, held the sword in one hand, and pointed the tip of the sword at Fang Zhixing.
In an instant, a terrifying, bloodthirsty light flashed from his eyes. He stared at Fang Zhixing intently, as if he was choosing someone to devour, full of murderous intent.
The rain slid down the edge of his knife and then fell to the ground with a thud, as cold as ice.
Fang Zhixing also drew his sword almost at the same time, and squatted slightly, ready to gather strength.
One second, two seconds, three seconds, four seconds!
After just a few seconds, Fang Zhixing stood still, his muscles continuously tightened, and he looked like a sculpture.
But his knife-holding posture became more and more perfect, without the slightest flaw.
"Ah, this?!"
Ding Liping's pupils shrank and he felt horrified!
As someone who was also skilled in swordplay, he could tell at a glance that Fang Zhixing was extremely dangerous, with no flaws on his body, making it impossible for him to attack him.
His intuition told him that as soon as he rushed forward, he would be killed immediately by Fang Zhixing's sword.
This situation...
Everyone fell silent, secretly clicking their tongues.
These children of aristocratic families are all martial artists. They have been taught by famous teachers since childhood and have practiced superior martial arts. Naturally, their vision is very high.
They could see at a glance that Fang Zhixing at this moment seemed to have turned into a bent bamboo, able to bounce back at any time and release incomparable power.
“Good fellow!”
Peng Haolin paused for a moment and his expression changed immediately.
Feng Xingkan narrowed his eyes, and a look of surprise involuntarily appeared on his face.
“Eh…”
Wu Hongqiu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he rubbed the handkerchief back and forth with his hands, as if thinking about something.
It's drizzling...
The cold sweat on Ding Liping's body was covered by the rain. The expression on his face was extremely solemn. The murderous intent between his brows collapsed and dissipated, and his fierceness disappeared without a trace.
At this moment, he had only one thought in his mind, which was to admit defeat.
But Peng Haolin and many other children of powerful families were watching, so he had no chance to admit defeat and had to fight anyway.
"What are you waiting for?"
Suddenly, Fang Zhixing asked calmly, signaling him to attack quickly.
"Gurgle~"
Ding Liping's Adam's apple moved, and he swallowed his saliva. A hint of pleading appeared in his eyes, and he replied, "Master Fang, I am the challenger, and you should make the first move."
As he spoke, he held the knife upright in front of him with both hands, taking a defensive stance, preparing to make a final struggle.
But the next moment! Ding Liping's eyes blurred and his whole body suddenly froze.
Fang Zhixing suddenly passed by him like a ghost.
Ding Liping blinked, and then the world spun around.
He saw a headless body spurting blood and falling backwards, and then the world gradually fell into eternal darkness.
The scene was dead silent, with only the sound of rain.
Second level of bird realm, one move to kill instantly?! Everyone stared in amazement.
Clap! Clap! Suddenly, someone on the second floor clapped.
Fang Zhixing looked up and saw that the man was Peng Haolin.
At this moment, the young master of Baima Manor was not angry at all. Instead, his eyes were shining and he was ready to make a move.
“Great swordsmanship!”
Peng Haolin gave a thumbs up and shouted, "I told you, rumors are not necessarily all false. There is no smoke without fire in the world."
Everyone had different expressions, and the look they gave Fang Zhixing no longer contained the contempt and disdain they had before.
They were all thinking, if they were facing Fang Zhixing's charged sword, would they be able to break it? After a moment...
Fang Zhixing walked out of the Wu family mansion carrying a bag and mounted his horse.
The thin dog followed and said in a voice transmission: "What happened to you just now? Why didn't you hold back? Now your strength is completely exposed!"
Fang Zhixing replied angrily: "Can I endure the situation just now if I want to?"
Xigou responded, "Then you shouldn't have killed his henchman Ding Liping right in front of Peng Haolin. You humiliated him in front of everyone, and now you have made a great enemy."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Fang Zhixing shook his head and said, "You are wrong. Peng Haolin doesn't care about Ding Liping's life or death. He doesn't seem to have such deep thoughts. His emotions are completely revealed on his face. He just wanted to test my background from beginning to end."
Xigou replied: "Even if Peng Haolin won't pursue this matter, how are you going to explain it to Luo Keji and Dong Minzhu?"
Fang Zhixing sneered, "Luo Keji and his wife just used me as a pawn. They thought they had complete control over me and could manipulate me at any time, but this unexpected situation was definitely beyond their expectations."
The dog blinked his eyes, not quite understanding what he heard, and couldn't help asking, "What do you mean?"
Fang Zhixing raised the corner of his mouth and said with a smile: "I am a chess piece, but I will not let them manipulate me. I have to take a few appropriate steps and find a way out for myself."
Xigou was shocked and said, "Did you expose your strength on purpose just now? To attract the attention of those children of the aristocratic families!"
Fang Zhixing hummed, nodded and smiled: "Only by muddying the water can we fish in troubled waters. If I am always being watched by many forces, Luo Keji and Dong Minzhu will definitely have to think twice before using me to do bad things. In addition, if there are many eyes watching me, it will be difficult for them to eliminate me at will."
The little dog suddenly came to his senses.
Ever since Fang Zhixing came to the county town, he has been unable to control himself. He seemed to have become a puppet of Luo Keji and Dong Minzhu, allowing them to manipulate him.
But today, Fang Zhixing seized this precious opportunity and began to break the impasse.
At this moment, Fang Zhixing was like the bent iron bamboo, continuously accumulating strength and waiting for the moment of counterattack.
…
…
Navy camp!
"Oh, Fang Maofu was finally exposed?"
After listening to Aunt Leng's report, Dong Minzhu shook her head and said dissatisfiedly: "Fang Maofu is too young, a little restless, and exposed too quickly."
Aunt Leng glanced at Luo Keji who was silent and said with a smile: "In fact, it is not completely exposed. Yixiangzhai has just attracted some attention. After a while, the storm will naturally subside."
“I think this is a good thing.”
Suddenly, Luo Keji spoke, with an expression that looked like a smile but not a smile, which was quite intriguing.
Dong Minzhu asked curiously, "How do you say it?"
Luo Keji replied: "Small seclusion in the wild, medium seclusion in the city, great seclusion in the court."
Dong Minzhu thought about it carefully, and suddenly realized it. She smiled and said, "As expected of my husband, you have a long-term vision."
…
…
Plop ~ It’s raining continuously.
In the darkness of night, a carrier pigeon flew onto Fang Zhixing's arm.
The thin dog then raised its head, its face full of anticipation.
He felt that Fang Zhixing would be scolded for his rash behavior this time.
"In the future, you should get in touch with the children of various powerful families more often. It would be best if you could become friends with them. Also, after you activate the secret passage, you must be more cautious in your actions in the future."
Fang Zhixing hesitated for a moment, then handed the scroll to Hongye and asked, "Is there a secret passage in Yixiangzhai?"
Hongye looked at the paper roll and nodded in response, "There is a secret passage. The entrance is in my room, just under the bed, and the exit is in a private house across the street. That private house is also the eldest son's private property, but it is registered in someone else's name and has never been occupied."
As soon as these words came out! Xigou glanced at Hongye coldly, and couldn't help but whispered: "This woman can't stay. She has been hiding such an important thing from you."
Fang Zhixing expressed his understanding.
After all, Hongye was trained by the Dong family. How could it be so easy for her to be so open-hearted and betray her completely? Then, he went to Hongye's room, lifted her bed, and there was indeed a secret passage underneath.
Fang Zhixing entered the secret passage and found that it was very narrow, only allowing one person to pass through, and one had to half-squat to move forward.
He walked all the way to the end of the secret passage, looked around and raised his head, and a round moon appeared above his head.
Then he pointed his toes, jumped up, and landed on the ground.
"It turns out that this exit is a dry well."
Fang Zhixing took a stroll and found the house was empty, with spider webs all over the house. It seemed that no one had lived there for a long time.
Coming out of the house and crossing a street, I looked up and saw the backyard of Yixiangzhai.
Fang Zhixing quickly understood what was going on and immediately turned back through the secret passage.
"With this secret passage, I can come and go freely even if someone is always monitoring Yixiangzhai."
Fang Zhixing sighed softly.
I have to admit that Luo Keji has considered it very carefully.
The night passed quickly.
The next morning, the sky cleared up.
Fang Zhixing carried a bag of tortoise-patterned stones and left the county town on horseback.
[1. Sink into the riverbed with fast-flowing water and salvage 100 pieces of ‘turtle-patterned stones’ (unfinished)]
The last time Fang Zhixing left the city, he passed by a river with fast-flowing water, which might be suitable for this task.
The horse galloped to the Green Bamboo Slope, turned into a small road, and ran forward two or three miles.
There was a rumbling sound coming from the front!
Fang Zhixing looked up and saw a waterfall hanging upstream.
The drop of the waterfall is not particularly large, only about ten meters, but the water flow is very large and the impact is extremely fierce.
Fang Zhixing came to the river, looked around, and saw no one.
But he was still worried, so he opened his red blood eyes and scanned the surroundings carefully.
After making sure that no one was following him, he took off his clothes and walked to the shore with the bag.
"Let's try it first."
Fang Zhixing took out a piece of tortoise-patterned stone from his bag and threw it out.
Plop! The turtle-patterned stone fell into the water and quickly sank to the bottom of the river.
However, the water flow was fast and the turtle-patterned stone might have been swept away by the rapids and carried forward for some distance.
Fang Zhixing took a deep breath, then jumped into the river and dived down.
The water was extremely murky and it was impossible to see anything.
Fang Zhixing kept diving, and at a depth of about two or three meters, he touched the mud at the bottom of the river.
He fumbled around with his eyes closed, the torrent hitting him madly.
After a moment, he surfaced.
The dog asked quickly, "Can you find it?"
Fang Zhixing swam back to the shore and shook his head, saying, "It's too difficult. I'm blind when I get to the bottom of the river. I can't find the direction at all. I can only grope around."
Xigou was speechless and said, "You just wasted eight hundred thousand dollars!"
Fang Zhixing didn't care, he brought more than 100 pieces of turtle-patterned stones.
Then he took out a thin rope, tied up a turtle-patterned stone, and threw the turtle-patterned stone into the bottom of the river.
