Volume 1: A stone strikes a thousand waves, the world surrounds Li Daosheng Chapter 126: The Definition of Not Bad
"So, you want me to go to the North with you?"
In the hall, after Li Si finished explaining the reason for his trip, Tang Zhong sat quietly and spoke slowly.
"Yes." Li Si said with a dry mouth. He picked up the teacup, took a sip, and nodded.
"This is a favor that the Jianghu owes the imperial court. The Tang Sect will naturally send someone, but why should I go with them?"
Tang Zhong did not agree directly, but looked at Li Si first, asked a question in return, and then said nothing more.
Li Si knew that he was waiting, waiting for him to give him a reason.
As long as Li Si could give this reason, Tang Zhong would set off immediately.
This person's personality has always been like this, but it is not easy to find a reason that can convince him.
Although Tang Zhong is competitive, it depends on the size of the matter. He has always been steady in major matters, otherwise he would not be able to become the leader of the Tang Clan.
Fortunately, this time he made it very clear in his words that this matter had nothing to do with the Tang Sect, but only concerned himself.
The Tang Clan was going to go anyway, and Li Si just needed to find a reason to get him to go as well.
After thinking for a while, Li Si put the teacup in his hand on the table.
"Tell me what you want me to do."
He gave the opportunity to put forward this reason to Tang Zhong himself.
Because since Tang Zhong is waiting, it means that he really has something to mention.
"Okay, then I'll tell you." Sitting down, Tang Zhong was not polite and spoke bluntly to Li Si.
"I want you to take three stabs from me."
So far, more than ten years have passed since the last competition between the two. Tang Zhong wanted to see how much faster his sword was and how much faster Li Si's lightness skills were.
So he wanted to compete again to see if his flying knife could catch up with Li Si this time.
"Okay." Li Si responded with a raised eyebrow, as if he was not surprised by Tang Zhong's request.
It's not really a surprise, because this request is quite consistent with his personality.
"But let's make this clear first." Just in case, Li Si raised a finger and said, "Don't get carried away again this time."
If Tang Zhong broke another finger, he really couldn't bear it.
"Of course." In response to Li Si's hint, Tang Zhong's brows relaxed a little and he seemed to smile.
As to how his finger was broken, no one in the world knew it, and it was a secret between him and Li Si.
"Then follow me." Standing up from his seat, Tang Zhong raised his hand and made a gesture of invitation.
Li Si smiled helplessly, sighed, stood up and followed him.
The location for the two men's competition was finally chosen to be Tang Zhong's backyard. The place was big enough and no one else would come.
Tang Zhong and Li Si stood on each side, ready to take action.
As for the tiger girl, Li Si ordered her to wait outside the door. After all, hidden weapons were not swords, and if Tang Zhong failed to stop his hand for the moment, he might hurt her.
"Say it again, I will only take three hits." Li Si stood on the left side of the yard, with his left hand behind his back and three fingers extended on his right hand.
Tang Zhong stood straight on the right side of the yard with his hands hanging by his sides. His palms seemed relaxed, but in fact they were ready to strike.
After hearing Li Si's words, he smiled and said.
"Between you and me, three strikes will determine the winner."
This sentence is indeed true. Between him and Li Si, whoever is faster will win.
"Come on then." Li Si showed a wry smile on his face, without further ado, signaled Tang Zhong that he could start.
The next moment, a flying knife appeared in front of him.
The true energy on the blade overflowed, blowing away the hair in front of his forehead, and the blade was cold, pressing directly against his brows.
In a flash, Li Si could almost see the fine lines on the blade and the faint reflection on the blade edge, but then he stepped aside and avoided the flying knife.
"Stab!" The blade swept past, and there was a sound of wind being pierced. A few strands of hair fell down, and some of the hair on Li Si's forehead was cut off .
You have to know that up to now, almost no one in this world can do this. Li Si was just a little bit away from being injured.
There is no denying that Tang Zhong's flying knife is really fast.
Before Li Si had time to stop, the second flying knife had already arrived.
The knife came from behind him, bringing with it a chilling chill, and was almost touching the back of his neck.
The ring finger on Tang Zhong's right hand was broken, which gave his flying knife an extra angle to shoot out, and it was also this angle that made it most difficult to guard against.
It always makes the flying knife appear where it shouldn't be.
However, the flying knife still failed to hurt Li Si, because Li Si had turned around at the moment before it fell, so the flying knife passed by his face and failed to hurt him at all.
At this time, Tang Zhong's third knife finally moved. The knife moved silently and its appearance could not be seen clearly. The reason was that when it flew out of Tang Zhong's hand, it had already disappeared.
This is Tang Zhong’s famous sword move, and it is also said that no one can dodge this sword move.
According to the legend, every time Tang Zhong used this move, the knife would only appear twice, once in Tang Zhong's hand and once on the opponent's body.
In the meantime, no one has ever seen how the knife flew out or where it flew to.
It just disappears, appears, and leaves one dead and one alive.
More than ten years ago, Li Si had dodged this knife once, but at that time he only saw a black shadow.
Now, the knife was used again from Tang Zhong's hand, and this time, it also disappeared from Li Si's eyes.
But did it really disappear? No, at least Li Si heard its sound.
Li Si knew where it came from and where it was going to land. Tang Chong shot his left arm, but he couldn't dodge it, and Li Si knew it.
This was the first time he encountered something he couldn't avoid.
But could he just let himself be shot? Of course not.
In the next instant, Li Si caught the second flying knife shot by Tang Zhong in the air with his right hand, then took a step back and threw the flying knife in front of him.
"Bang!"
"when!"
Only two almost connected sounds were heard. Tang Zhong's first flying knife pierced into the beam next to the yard, while the remaining two flying knives collided with each other and fell to the ground.
Just as Li Si said, he was good at using hidden weapons, and he was quite good at it, but no one knew how good he was.
"Huh." In the yard, Li Si let out a breath, then patted his chest as if he was a little scared.
"That was a close call. You were too reckless with your attack."
Tang Zhong stood aside, smiled and said, "You didn't dodge."
"You didn't hit it either." In response, Li Si could only roll his eyes.
"So, it's a draw?" Tang Zhong asked with a smile. This time he smiled very clearly and it was obvious that he was in a good mood.
"Draw." Li Si waved his hand with a frown, he was too lazy to argue with him.
"I told you that you should use hidden weapons." The smile on Tang Zhong's face deepened, as if what he said was confirmed.
"I said that too." Li Si glanced at him helplessly and said sullenly.
"I don't like using weapons."
