There's a Madman Sharpening His Knife at Night

Even though Lu Hu saw that the study was completely dark, there was no one on guard outside.

I felt like I was missing out.

But he finally found the place, and he had to go in and take a look no matter what.

Looking at the tight security in this official residence, you can tell that the people who arranged the defense are extraordinary. If what they are singing is an empty city strategy, and I am unwilling to take a few more steps, wouldn't it be a pity?

Lu Hu ducked a few times and came to the front of the study. As soon as he pushed the door open, he ducked in.

As soon as you enter the study room, the first thing you see is a dazzling array of books of all kinds.

"So many books."

Lu Hu's eyes flickered.

Books were expensive during the Sui Dynasty, and there were very few books of all kinds circulating on the market.

Looking around, dozens of bookshelves were filled with brand new books that seemed to have never been read.

Lu Hu was distracted for a moment.

At this moment, in the suddenly dark study room, a sound of breaking wind came quickly.

Lu Hu frowned, and the long knife in his hand was immediately unsheathed!

"clang!"

There was a crisp sound. Lu Hu looked at his feet and saw what fell to the ground was a short-handled flying knife!

"Flying knife!"

Seeing this familiar flying knife, Lu Hu's eyes suddenly widened, and the evil aura in his eyes became even higher!

"Could it be that"

Without giving Lu Hu any thought, he immediately erupted three times in succession.

Lu Hu moved his steps and slashed with the long knife in his hand.

Although these three flying knives were very powerful, they still failed to pose a threat to Lu Hu.

But just when Lu Hu cut off the flying knife with one strike, a sword suddenly flashed from the side, and a short knife slashed towards Lu Hu's neck at high speed.

"Huh! It's really you!"

Although this person was previously using a flying knife to distract Lu Hu's mind and cover up the sound of his movements.

But Lu Hu's ears still heard his whereabouts.

And this man used a flying knife first, and then a short sword. In addition, as Pei Yuan said before, Zhang Xianzu invited masters back from Anyang Mansion.

The identity of the person hiding in the study has been revealed.

It was the man in gray who was chasing Lu Hu on the rooftop!

As the saying goes, enemies often meet on a narrow road, but I never expected that Lu Hu and this person would meet again in this place and in this way!

Lu Hu's strength has improved by leaps and bounds during this period, and he has now reached the peak of marrow training.

And the man in gray's sword made Lu Hu see that during this period, the man in gray had not been idle either. This sword was much more powerful than that on the roof on a rainy night!

Lu Hu was on guard for a long time, just to lure him into making a move. He stepped diagonally and the man dodged past.

The direction of the sword suddenly changed, turning into a stab, but the short sword did not have the advantage of length, and there was no stabbing move in the short sword's sword technique.

But there must be a reason why the man in gray can use this trick.

Sure enough, Lu Hu's ears twitched, his wrist moved the long knife horizontally, and he immediately blocked his face!

"clang!"

The long knife shook, and a handleless flying knife that was slightly smaller than before was blocked by him.

This flying knife is tied to the blade of the short knife with a string.

The man in gray's forward stab was a false move, but in reality he used force to break the string and hit the Yin man with a flying knife.

If Lu Hu hadn't recognized this person's identity first and had previous dealings with him, he would have been very wary.

In addition, he had excellent hearing and heard the movement, otherwise he might not be able to block the flying knife at such a close range.

After Lu Hu blocked the knife, the man in gray took the opportunity to close the distance, and the short knife struck at his vitals like a butterfly turning over flowers.

"Dang! Dang! Dang!"

A series of rapid collision sounds were heard in the study.

Lu Hu stepped back continuously, and the short sword was so close that he couldn't use the long sword. He was constrained everywhere and could only deal with the opponent's offensive.

And even if he wanted to distance himself first, the other party would not give him a chance and pressed forward step by step!

After Lu Hu fended off the opponent's dagger again, he suddenly kicked the opponent's knee.

The opponent stepped sideways and twisted to dodge, but Lu Hu's kick suddenly became faster, and he changed his move and kicked him in the crotch.

Fallen leaves legs!

This kick forced the opponent to take a step back.

Lu Hu seized the opportunity, and after kicking the Falling Leaf Kick in the air, he immediately used the Shadowless Kick.

"Bah bang bang!"

In the midst of three crisp explosions, three phantoms headed toward each other in a glyph shape.

The Shadowless Kick can be used falsely or really, but the actual move cannot be used the first time. Therefore, Lu Hu's false move is to lure the enemy to reveal his weak point, and then use the Blue Kick later!

But who knew that the man in gray had rich combat experience. Faced with this move, he would not retreat but advance instead. The short knife in his hand also slashed at the three afterimages at extremely fast speeds.

Suddenly Lu Hu was forced to close his legs and block with the long knife in his hand!

Lu Hu's kick skills were not enough when he met an experienced and powerful person like the man in gray, and his counterattack rhythm was easily broken.

But his goal of creating distance was also achieved.

This shows the importance of the integrity of martial arts configuration.

Some martial arts do not necessarily require killing the enemy, as long as they can help one achieve the goal at a critical moment.

The two were three meters apart, and Lu Hu had time to see clearly the appearance of the person opposite.

This time, he was not wearing gray clothes. Instead, like Lu Hu, he was dressed in black clothes, and his face was not covered. He was a cold man with a white face and a deep gaze.

Seeing Lu Hu covering his face with a scarf, the man snorted coldly, saying nothing nonsense. He quickly touched his waist with his left hand, and three more flying knives came at him at high speed.

At the same time, as soon as his footsteps moved, the man started to kill Lu Hu.

The flying knives coming from the front posed no threat to Lu Hu at this time. He dodged two knives and knocked one away. When he was about to deal with the short dagger coming towards him, he suddenly felt a sound in his chest.

"What?"

He quickly glanced at his chest and saw a thin needle standing at his Tanzhong point.

There is actually a flying needle hidden in the flying knife. The flying needle is small. Although it is not more lethal than the flying knife, it is better because it moves less. After quenching the poison, it is also extremely powerful to hit acupuncture points.

Lu Hu didn't notice this flying needle at all. Fortunately, he wore inner armor, otherwise he would have been in trouble!

"What a trick!"

Although this method was sinister, Lu Hu actually praised it.

The visitor did not expect that the flying needle in his hand failed to achieve any merit. While he was in trouble, the strength of the short sword in his hand increased by another level.

Whoops!

The biting wind blew the earth, and the snow drifted.

Jingle bell bell~

A bell like a child crying at night rang over the official road outside Dingbei City.

A black figure wearing a white robe and a white smiling mask was walking through the snow towards Dingbei City.

The copper bell attached to the dragon-headed crutch in his hand kept ringing as he walked.

Behind him, there were densely packed people in white clothes who looked like ghosts.

The team was huge, numbering hundreds of people.

The moment he saw Dingbeicheng from a distance, a man in white came to the front.

"Sir, we haven't held a promotion ceremony for the church members here yet. If we go to Ding Beicheng now, I'm afraid we won't be able to do it!

Moreover, in three days, the Anping Army sent for reinforcements will arrive. If we rise now, aren't we going to hit that blade? "

"Hmph, what do you know? The priest has his own arrangements. These are not things you think about. Do your own thing well!"

"Yes, sir!"

The man returned to the rear group with a complicated expression.

There are two types of conspiracy in the world, conspiracy and conspiracy.

Conspiracy lies in subterfuge and undercover.

They are most afraid of being exposed. Once exposed, it is often useless. Because the key is the information gap! Taking advantage of the information gap to make the other party be deceived. So conspiracy often coexists with deception.

However, information gaps and deception are extremely unstable, and there is a risk of exposure at any time.

You can deceive everyone temporarily, and you can deceive some people forever, but no one can deceive everyone all the time.

The more people involved and the longer it lasts, the greater the risk of the conspiracy breaking down.

Therefore, conspiracy can often only be used locally - a small number of local groups in the short term.

The key to conspiracy is not the information gap, but the insight into objective laws. It is the so-called inviting the king into the urn!

Everyone's behavior has a motive, and there is a profit drive behind this motive.

Once you understand this core interest, you can then proceed with the deduction.

Core interests, possible action strategies, and methods of execution.

Then use keen insight to find irreconcilable conflicts at different times, and finally formulate effective strategies.

In this way, the conspiracy is established and almost unsolvable unless the other party's core interests change.

Once a conspiracy is formulated, as long as there are no problems at the execution level, the expected goals can usually be achieved.

Therefore, those who achieve great things are few who use conspiracy and most are those who use scheming.

It has been snowing heavily in the past few days, and the Anyang army's march has been delayed, and the military period is already very tense.

The border war situation has become anxious again because of the heavy snow.

As the saying goes, military orders are like mountains, but the commander-in-chief of the Anping Army is not responsible for the local security. He has no orders to suppress the Resurrection Cult. Instead, he wants the army to rush to the prescribed position at the prescribed time!

Among these two choices, one is reviled by the world, and the other is related to one's personal development, wealth and life. It is not difficult to guess how to choose!

Therefore, when the Resurrection Cult took action at this time, it was precisely because they calculated that even if Qingzhou City was captured by the Rebirth Cult, the coach could only turn a blind eye and leave it to the local government to deal with it.

This is the effect of the Rebirth Teaching. On top of the already rotten human heart, it adds a fire to promote the arrival of troubled times, thus gaining the opportunity to grow stronger!

Moreover, even the head coach of the Anping Army really cares about the people and takes action against the Rebirth Cult regardless of personal interests.

Delaying the military period will also have an impact on the border war. It can also aggravate the situation and achieve the purpose of rebirth. However, the effect is very little and the price paid is a bit high.

So in this situation, no matter what the Anping Army coach chooses, in the long run, the Rebirth Religion will be the winner.

This is the terrible thing about conspiracy. It uses the general trend to suppress people. Once it takes shape, it can only recover the losses as much as possible.

The conspiracy of the leader of the Rebirth Cult is even more terrifying. In an instant, he can pull other people's wealth and lives onto his chessboard.

According to Lu Hu's understanding of martial arts, martial arts is a means and killing is the goal.

Then the chief priest of the Rebirth Cult has peerless martial arts.

An ordinary man's sword cannot take the enemy's head from a thousand miles away, but this prince's sword can!
