Volume 13 Seven Weapons: Love Ring Chapter 328: The Dead Sword
The lights in the Yin Gou Casino are still bright.
The bright light shone on people's faces, and everyone's expressions could be clearly seen: the gamblers' fear, Ku Zhu's surprise, Fang Yufei's smile, and Su Weiyun's calmness.
The wind outside the alley blew coldly, and the inside of the gambling house seemed to become less warm.
The gamblers with a keen eye have already quietly planned to slip away. Although they are addicted to gambling, they are not really willing to risk their lives.
However, when they wanted to sneak out, they found that the door of the gambling house was locked.
Since Su Weiyun and Fang Yufei jointly set up this killing plan, it is naturally impossible for them to let Kuzhu get away again.
Kuzhu's expression changed at first, then he calmed down and said, "Su Weiyun... are you the new leader of the Qinglong Society?"
Su Weiyun remained silent.
Kuzhu sneered and said, "Luckily you came here in time, otherwise you would have died under Gusong's sword!"
Su Weiyun remained silent.
Kuzhu said: "It's a pity that you can escape the first day, but not the fifteenth!"
Suddenly, with a "clang" sound, the sword was unsheathed.
It’s the sword of the withered bamboo!
The sword light broke through the air, as if it flew straight out, and it flew seven feet away, from beginning to end, across the entire gambling house.
There was originally a long distance between Su Weiyun and the dead bamboo, but the sword light arrived in an instant, leaving no time for people to react!
The momentum of this sword is solitary, steep, and eternally dead, just like a thousand-year-old dead bamboo on the top of a cold mountain!
When Su Weiyun saw this sword, he was suddenly stunned, as if he had seen something incredible .
He did not draw his sword to meet the attack, but instead avoided it from a distance. He kicked a gambling table away, and the dice and gambling utensils fell all over the ground. A large wooden table made of solid wood fell head-on towards the dead bamboo.
Ding!
Kuzhu stretched out his hand and hit the wooden table with his palm, causing the table to spin back quickly!
And his man also followed the table, and his sword was behind the table, still maintaining the original momentum, without any change!
There was a wall behind Su Weiyun, on which hung a calligraphy piece by Cai Bojie from the Eastern Han Dynasty.
The wooden table flew back quickly and he had no place to hide!
Chi!
The sword was struck out, and it pierced through the wooden table effortlessly, even easier than chopping a piece of tofu.
Amid the exclamations, the wooden table did not fall on Su Weiyun's body, but suddenly stopped in mid-air.
The table was placed between Su Weiyun and the dead bamboo, only a sword's length away.
Half of the sword is a withered bamboo sword, and the other half is a Xiaoxiang sword.
At the last moment, Su Weiyun also drew his sword, and together with the withered bamboo sword, he passed through the table and lifted it up.
Click, click...
The wooden table suddenly broke into tiny pieces, first falling from the middle and then spreading to the surrounding areas, just like a delicate spider web breaking into pieces.
But if you stare closely at the tip of the sword, it looks like two people used the swords to "paint" two different and wonderful flowers on the wooden table with the tiny cracks as stems.
The people in the casino stared at the two men closely, not even daring to breathe.
They had never seen such sword power.
This sword force actually carries a destructive and terrifying power. Not only can it penetrate with one sword, but it also uses clever internal energy to shatter the objects it pierces bit by bit.
They believed that if this sword stabbed a person, the person's meridians would probably be shattered even more thoroughly.
Crash!
Wood chips fell all over the ground and the flowers withered.
Everyone finally saw the two men's swords clearly.
——The dry bamboo sword just brushed past Su Weiyun’s side.
——And the Xiaoxiang sword pierced into the clavicle of Kuzhu’s left shoulder.
The withered bamboo sword missed the target!
An inexplicable look suddenly appeared on Kuzhu's face, including fear, weirdness, confusion, and disbelief.
Their hands were still there, not moving.
The two of them didn't move, and the others didn't dare to move either.
There was an abnormal silence in the Yin Gou Casino.
Su Weiyun suddenly asked, "Is your sword called the Withered Bamboo Sword?"
Withered Bamboo said: "The sword of Lone Pine is as lonely and proud as a pine tree, the sword of Winter Plum is as sad and beautiful as a plum, and my sword is like a withered bamboo!"
Su Weiyun praised: "What a dry bamboo sword! A bamboo that has been dry for ten thousand years has no life but death! Will anyone stabbed by the dry bamboo sword never survive?"
Kuzhu said: "Not bad!"
Fortunately, Su Weiyun was not stabbed by the withered bamboo sword, and everyone was thankful. If Su Weiyun died, they would not be able to survive.
Su Weiyun asked again: "Why is the killing intent of the withered bamboo sword so strong that no one is left alive?"
The withered bamboo said, "If the evergreen bamboo withers, how can a human live?"
Su Weiyun asked: "Why did the green bamboo wither?"
The withered bamboo said: "When the green bamboo blooms, it may be brilliant for a moment, but after the flower blooms, it withers!"
Su Weiyun was silent.
Bamboo is evergreen, has various shapes and forms, is upright and tough, but it rarely blooms.
Because bamboos often wither and die after blooming, many places regard bamboo flowering as a bad omen before disaster.
Su Weiyun murmured, "After blooming, should it wither and die?"
Kuzhu said sternly: "Your sword has also blossomed, and you just made the flower wither?"
"In this way, the sword technique can unleash the most terrifying power. Why do you have to pretend to be so righteous and ask me again?!"
There were certainly many people in the Yin Gou Casino who had practiced boxing and martial arts, but they could not understand what Su Weiyun and Ku Zhu were talking about at all.
Even Fang Yufei felt that the two seemed to be chatting about something incomprehensible.
But Su Weiyun himself knew clearly that his swordsmanship would also blossom, and the blossoming flower would be the " Fourteenth Deadly Sword".
After the wood and stone take our lives, there comes the splendor of a flower.
This is the fatal fourteenth sword.
But in the legend, there is a fifteenth sword in the Thirteen Deadly Swords. When the fifteenth sword comes out, ghosts cry and gods howl, the heaven and earth are shocked, and there are mountains of corpses and seas of bones, and blood flows like a river!
But where is the fifteenth sword? Where to find it? Su Weiyun has no idea at all.
He felt that the fourteenth sword was already the limit - a piece of wood growing in the desert and rooted in the rock has blossomed, what else do you want from it?
But Su Weiyun caught a glimpse of something from Kuzhu's sword, which was why he was stunned earlier.
The forms of Kuzhu's swordsmanship and the Fourteenth Deadly Sword are different, but their meanings are similar, and there are some vague similarities.
Kuzhu suddenly sighed, "I lost. I saw your sword on your right waist, and I figured you must be good at the left-hand sword, but I didn't expect you to use your right hand."
The Xiaoxiang sword was firmly inserted into his left shoulder, and the hand holding the sword was his right hand.
He calculated wrong, so the withered bamboo sword missed the target.
Su Weiyun looked at his right hand. It was with his right hand that he wielded the deadly Fourteenth Sword and killed Palace Master Yao Yue, who had reached the pinnacle of inner strength and was unstoppable.
However, because of this, he was overwhelmed by murderous intent and went through a period of time when he did not dare to draw his sword and kill people easily.
Just now, when the wooden table was flying in the air, he took advantage of Kuzhu's blocked vision and quickly switched the sword to his right hand. He was inspired and used the deadly fourteenth sword move.
"After blooming, it must wither. Only in this way can it unleash the sword intent of eternal annihilation..."
Could this be the path leading to the legendary, world-shattering, unparalleled "Fifteenth Sword of Death"?
If I continue to practice along this path, can I reach the level of the Fifteen Deadly Swords?
Su Weiyun fell into deep thought, muttering to himself, and unexpectedly asked a very strange question: "My sword has hit you, why haven't you died yet?"
Kuzhu said calmly, "It's because the power of your sword has not yet been activated, your sword skills have not yet been exhausted, and your killing intent has not yet reached its maximum. Therefore, if you don't move, I can't move either, otherwise the sword energy will be affected and my left arm will be disabled."
Everyone realized that this was the reason why the two of them did not move. And it seemed that Kuzhu had already put life and death aside.
Su Weiyun thought about it, then shook his head and said, "No."
Kuzhu said angrily, "No? I have learned swordsmanship for more than forty years. Even if I haven't defeated you today, I will never say that your swordsmanship is wrong!"
Su Weiyun said: "You are not wrong, but you are using the sword incorrectly. After the flower blooms, it should never wither!"
The withered bamboo asked, "Why not?"
Su Weiyun said: "If the flower blooms and then withers, annihilating all things, the sword will become a dead sword and will destroy everything around the swordsman!"
A strange look suddenly appeared in Kuzhu's eyes , and he said, "Isn't that the highest realm of swordsmanship?"
Su Weiyun scolded: "If you want to hurt others, you must hurt yourself first. This sword is a sword of extinction. If it wants to exterminate all living things, then the swordsman himself will not be able to escape the catastrophe!"
When Kuzhu heard this, he was stunned for a moment.
Su Weiyun slowly pulled the Xiaoxiang sword out of his left shoulder, and blood dripped down the tip of the sword.
He did not unleash the sword power contained within it.
drop.
Drops of blood fell at the feet of the dead bamboo.
"Go away, I won't kill you."
As if he had heard something impossible, Kuzhu widened his eyes and asked, "You want me to leave?"
Su Weiyun said: "I used the sword wrongly just now. I won't kill people with the wrong sword. So I let you go."
Everyone in the gambling house was also stunned, even more stunned than the withered bamboo.
"Thank you very much."
Kuzhu stood there for a long while, then suddenly put away his sword, turned around and left the Yingou Casino.
