Chapter 69



The Knight's Journey of Guanzhong

That guy who had been drinking the whole time was actually Zhan Zhige! The hero from Guanzhong who had broken into the Guannei Hou military camp all alone and escaped unscathed!

Liu Buqi and Yue Lingxi looked at each other in shock! Zhang Xiruo, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief!

He had been exhausted since he came upstairs! He had been on high alert against this murderous man, fearing he might explode into violence!

Now it seems that he wanted to challenge another hero who was famous for his martial arts in the world hero list, Qu Shanhe of Jingchu!

Yue Wuji's face darkened, and Qu Shanhe on the bridge was also caught off guard. He obviously didn't expect such an unexpected turn of events!

Just as he was about to refuse, Zhan Zhige jumped from the second floor of the pleasure boat and jumped onto the bridge which was several feet high!

The murderous intent around him burst out the moment he stepped on the ground and headed straight for Qu Shanhe!

Qu Shanhe, who was fighting to defend with all his might, had a solemn look on his face. He folded the folding fan in his hand and pointed it forward, using the fan as a sword.

There's no avoiding this fight! The only two heroes on the Hero Rankings who made it through martial arts will face off today on Suzaku Bridge!

The onlookers were thrilled! The gathering of four of Taiyue's most outstanding heroes and beauties was already incredibly exciting!

Now there is also a martial arts battle between the heroes Zhan Zhige of Guanzhong and Qu Shanhe of Jingchu, which is really exciting!

Compared to this, the previous recognition of ownership on the street was at most an appetizer for tonight's event!

Zhan Zhige put one hand behind his back, so that he could fight the enemy with one hand to make up for the sudden challenge that caught Qu Shanhe off guard!

He raised his other hand, stretched out two fingers as a sword, and nodded slightly to indicate that a fight between dragons and tigers was about to begin!

Liu Buqi was extremely excited, although he had long known that martial arts existed in this era, for example, Zhang Xiruo was a very good martial artist!

But having seen many confrontations between two armies on the battlefield, Zhang Xiruo did not display any superior martial arts skills!

After I learned that there is a list of heroes in the world and that there is a pure warrior on the list, I have been wondering whether there really is such a magical martial art as flying over eaves and walking on walls!

Zhan Zhige had just jumped onto the high bridge without much effort, and she was already shaking Yue Lingxi's arm excitedly!

Now he even pulled Yue Lingxi to the window to watch the ultimate showdown on the bridge!

As the saying goes, love the house and love the dog, and vice versa. Qu Shanhe recognizes Yue Wuji as his master, so he is a potential enemy, and the enemy of my enemy is my friend!

Liu Buqi acted a little naughty and kept shouting under Yue Wuji's angry gaze!

"Zhan Zhige, you have to keep doing your best! I'm rooting for you!"

Even Yue Lingxi who was standing by couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to seal that cute little mouth with his mouth!

The war stopped and the war was reciprocated with a hearty smile.

"Lord Anguo Hou, your wife is a world-renowned poet and writer. She has just completed a poem. Her talent is truly unparalleled!"

"I am not a talented warrior. If I am lucky enough to win today, I would like to ask Madam Liu to give me a poem to boost my morale. Would you be willing to do that?"

Before Yue Lingxi could agree, Liu Buqi had already responded happily.

"Today, the hero from Guanzhong has come to the capital to demonstrate his prowess. If he wins, I will give him a poem, so that his name, Zhan Zhige, can be passed down through the ages."

Strictly speaking, this statement may seem like self-boasting, as if the poet is certain that his poems will be passed down through the ages!

Although the Youzhou fox spirit wrote few poems, every line was fascinating. To this day, half of his poem "No White Hairs Are Allowed to Appear in the World" is still hanging in the Victory Tower, and no one can continue it. He really has the capital to be proud and boastful!

What's more, this confident attitude is very consistent with Zhan Zhige's mood at the moment!

“From today on, as long as you do not violate the conscience of heaven and earth and the way of chivalry, Zhan Mou can obey Madam’s orders three times to pay for what I did today!”

Everyone in the pleasure boat naturally knew that Zhan Zhige wanted to repay Liu Buqi for the favor of awakening them with a poem!

But Qu Shanhe on the bridge didn't know. Seeing Zhan Zhige and Liu Buqi singing the same tune, as if they were sure that they would lose, he felt really annoyed!

"Hmph! You're so arrogant! Who will win today is still unknown, so there's no need to waste time on nonsense! Come on!"

Chen Yuanyuan, who had been silent behind the screen, plucked the strings of the zither in response to the situation.

A series of crisp sounds, one louder and faster than the other, broke the silence of the onlookers who had held their breath.

At the highest point of the zither sound! Qu Shanhe's folding fan created a circle of afterimages, which actually split into three and attacked Zhan Zhige from above, middle and below at the same time!

Zhan Zhige remained motionless until the distance between them was less than one meter, then he took a step to the left and directly smashed the two shadows attacking from the middle and lower directions!

He moved his head slightly to the right to avoid another light and shadow, and the two fingers on his hand had already stopped on the neck of Qu Shanhe who was rushing towards him!

The two people in Liu Buqi's eyes seemed to have not moved at all, but in just a blink of an eye, they appeared in their current position!

This speed has completely exceeded the ability of the human eye to capture, it is really incredible!

At this time, exclamations came one after another on the shore. Although it was just a brief encounter, the two people on the bridge had already demonstrated all they had learned in their lives!

Zhan Zhige's face was already pale. The killing move that passed by his ear was extremely dangerous. If he was not careful, the result would be a piercing through of the forehead, and he would die on the spot!

A trace of blood flowed from the corner of Qu Shanhe's mouth. Only the two people who were fighting knew that the two fingers that seemed to be stopped at his neck were actually aimed at his Adam's apple. If they were concentrated, he would die instantly!

It is impossible for masters to stop at a certain point in the duel. Both of them have already given their all. On the surface, it seems that Zhan Zhige's victory is a foregone conclusion!

But both of them knew that if he held the real face, Qu Shanhe would certainly die on the spot, and in fact, the battle to stop the war would also be a matter of life and death.

But in the end, Zhan Zhige won this battle!

Qu Shanhe withdrew his folding fan, took three steps back, bowed in greeting, and said, "See you next time!" Then he left Zhuque Bridge without looking back!

Zhan Zhige also took three steps back, returned the greeting and watched his opponent leave!

Strictly speaking, it was unfair for him to be fully prepared against Qu Shanhe who responded hastily.

But I didn't come here for fame, and now that my goal has been achieved, I feel at peace with myself!

Now, everyone's attention is focused on the Youzhou Fox in the pleasure boat!

"The Qin guest's hair is covered with tassels, and his Wu hook shines brightly with frost and snow. The silver saddle shines on the white horse, and it gallops like a shooting star. He kills one person every ten steps, and leaves no trace in a thousand miles. When the task is completed, he leaves, concealing his identity and name."

"Three cups of wine and a promise is made, the Five Mountains seem light. After the eyes are blurred and the ears are hot, the spirit of Su Ni is reborn. Even if I die, my chivalrous spirit will be fragrant, and I will not be ashamed of being a hero in the world. Who can write for you, the Taiyue Sutra in your old age?"

"Today, Liu Buqi of Youzhou presents "The Knight's Ode" to the great hero Zhan Zhige of Guanzhong!"

From the time the two exchanged poems to the end of the competition, it actually took only half a cup of tea!

In such a short time, this long poem of joyful revenge has been freshly produced! This Master Liu truly has an unparalleled literary talent!

There was an endless stream of cheers along the coast as four world-famous heroes gathered together, playing music and reciting poems. Today's night market will surely be famous through the ages!

Zhan Zhige was also a person well versed in literature, so he could naturally appreciate that this poem "Xia Ke Xing" was indeed worthy of being passed down for thousands of years!

The result of this battle may not be remembered by anyone in ten years, but this poem makes it possible for Zhan Zhige to be recorded in history!

This is already a great honor for a warrior!
