Volume 1: Spring in Wulong Town Chapter 21: The first to strike is the strongest, the last to strike is the weakest
Most of the alleys in West Street are not wide.
At this time, the dead end was even darker.
However, no matter how dim it is, there are people who can still see it clearly.
However, Lao Ding and Xiao Gui were both stunned.
They are not dazzled!
They clearly saw Tang Zheng turning into this dead end, but when they chased him in, they saw nothing.
"Fuck!" How could two people accept such huge ups and downs?
I originally thought I had picked up a lucky streak, but after chasing for a long time, I came up empty-handed!
Not reconciled !
How can I be willing to accept this situation?
"Look!" Xiao Gui knocked on the wall inch by inch, "See if there is any secret passage?"
Although Lao Ding felt that there was little hope, he did not refute it, because Xiaogui was unwilling to accept it, and he was unwilling to accept it too.
The two of them knocked all the way inside until they reached the end of a dead end...
"Hey, you two." Just when they were sure that there were no secret passages in this dead end, Tang Zheng's ghostly voice, with a mocking smile, sounded behind them!
The two men turned their heads in shock and anger.
Tang Zheng looked at their reactions with satisfaction and said with a smile, "Are you squatting here looking for treasure in the middle of the night?"
Both of them exploded.
The constellations behind them emerged at the same time.
However, they did not light up a single star. Even if the stars rose up, they could not change the dim light in this dead end.
Tang was standing at the intersection of a narrow alley.
It just blocked the way for two people.
The positions of the hunter and the prey suddenly reversed!
"Along the way, I had seventeen chances to get rid of you quietly." Tang Zheng smiled and counted on his fingers as he approached them.
In fact, Tang Zheng looks quite normal, the type who wouldn't make many bubbles if thrown into a crowd of people.
But when he smiled, there was a magical power that made people inexplicably angry, and they wanted to smash him to pieces on the spot, without waiting for even a second.
"But I think that killing you in the street is too arrogant and does not conform to my life principles of peace, stability, kindness and low-key."
"..."The two bad guys just thought that Tang Zheng's principles could be fed to dogs.
"Of course, what's more important is that if I kill you silently, where can I find two opponents with such similar strength?" Tang Zheng clenched his fists.
Now that he has fifty strands of star power, he wants to know what effect such star power can produce in actual combat.
If you don't fight head-on, how can you know who you can beat and who you can't beat?
Tang Zheng is an absolute practical man!
However, he also knew that this was no longer a game, and he had to consider safety in actual combat - no more, no less, the two brothers who had fallen behind in front of him were quite safe!
Old Ding, who was standing a little further back, was much more timid than Xiaogui. Hearing what Tang Zheng said, his breathing became heavier involuntarily, and his fingers subconsciously moved slowly to his waist.
As a result, just by touching it, all the hairs on his body stood up!
Not far away, Tang Zheng stretched out his right hand and threw up two small silver objects with a smile: "Are you...looking for this?"
When Old Ding saw what Tang Zheng threw up, his face turned pale.
Those were the whistles they both wore around their waists for emergency communication!
"Let me lend you my dagger!" Tang Zheng seized the opportunity of their panic and distraction at this moment, sped up instantly, and walked as fast as the wind. He stretched out his hand to grab Lao Ding's leggings, raised his wrist, and then wiped it!
Old Ding hurriedly took two steps back, his body almost sticking to the wall at the end of the dead end.
All of Lao Ding's star power had been used to protect his vitals. The knife only left a long line of blood on his neck. However, the warm feeling of the blood flowing from his neck frightened him so much that he fell directly to the ground.
Tang Zheng took one look and shook his head: "Forget it, change another one, this one is useless."
As he said that, he swung the dagger in his hand downwards!
At first glance, the dagger seemed to be heading for the heart, but when Lao Ding used all his star power to protect his heart, he saw that the dagger seemed to have turned a corner and pierced his carotid artery!
Immediately, blood surged like a tide!
"A pie in the sky...huh..." At the last moment before his death, Lao Ding realized that what Tang Zheng said about having more than a dozen opportunities to kill them along the way did not seem to be a lie.
It wasn't pie they ran into tonight.
But, the devil!
…
Tang Zheng slowly pulled out the dagger from Lao Ding's body.
Xiao Gui stared at him and swallowed.
Tang Zheng turned around, grinned, and hooked his finger at him.
"I'm going to fight you!" Xiao Gui, with the aura of a spotted cheetah, did not even draw the dagger from his leggings, but directly attacked Tang Zheng with his claws.
Tang Zheng nodded and said, "Okay!"
If this guy turned around and ran away, it would be a waste of Tang Zheng's effort to come back.
Tang Zheng was watching Xiao Gui attacking with one hand, so he simply threw away the dagger, crossed his upper arms in front of his chest, and the star power instantly flowed to the intersection, directly blocking Xiao Gui's claw!
Both of them are people who practice star power.
The sound of the collision didn't even sound like the sound of human bodies colliding, but more like two steel pipes colliding with each other!
Tang Zheng twisted his hands in front of his chest downwards, causing Xiaogui's palm to press down hard. He pulled out his elbow suddenly, and the star force gathered in his elbow like a knife, and hit Xiaogui's neck hard, which had just been bent by his palm.
If this hit succeeds, Xiaogui's cervical vertebrae will be broken!
However, a strong backlash came...
Xiaogui looks only three or four years older than Tang Zheng, but the star power in his body is even stronger than Tang Zheng's.
After all, people in this world have been practicing since childhood. A genius like Meng Fenghua, if she wanted, could light up her second fate palace at the age of thirteen. However, the practice journey of Tang Zheng, the stowaway, has just begun!
"He has at least two or three hundred strands of star power." Tang Zheng withdrew his hand immediately when he felt the recoil. He stepped back slightly with his left foot, condensed the star power of his right foot, and kicked towards Xiaogui's knee.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Gui's star power circulation speed was quite fast. He was able to counter Tang Zheng's moves and counterattack. Because Tang Zheng had to stand on one foot when he kicked, Xiao Gui's counterattack, if nothing unexpected happened, could completely knock Tang Zheng to the ground.
But how stable is Tang Zheng?
When the opponent pushed him back, he immediately jumped back two steps, steadied his body, and counterattacked in seconds!
From being pushed back to attacking, Tang Zheng's attack and defense conversion speed was so fast that Xiao Gui couldn't imagine it. He punched Xiao Gui in the upper abdomen, making Xiao Gui vomit immediately. Tang Zheng immediately pinched his neck again, making him unable to vomit, and then raised his knee and hit Xiao Gui's stomach again...
Let go and kick it away.
Xiaogui was already lying on the ground, vomiting desperately, and couldn't stand up.
After this beating, Tang Zheng had a better idea of what was going on.
When he was fighting with Meng Fenghua, Meng Fenghua had no intention of really fighting, and he did not fight to the death, so even though Meng Fenghua was stronger, the insights he gained from it were not as good as those from the battle with Xiaogui.
Xiaogui can already rise to the stars, and the strength of his star power is far beyond what Tang Zheng, who has only been refining his star power for ten days or so.
However, Tang Zheng was still able to knock him down, and, more importantly, he knocked him down head-on!
If it weren't for the head-on battle, it would only take Tang three seconds to track, follow, and stab Xiaogui.
"Cough cough...you...cough..." Xiaogui lay on the ground, unable to utter a complete sentence.
"The night is long and dreams are many." Tang Zheng picked up the dagger on the ground and said with a smile: "Say thank you, and I will give you a quick death."
"Fuck!" Xiao Gui spat out a mouthful of blood. The floating stars behind him appeared and disappeared from time to time and became extremely unstable.
Of course Tang Zheng could see it, and there was still resentment in his eyes.
However, Tang Zheng also thought it was quite normal. Someone was trying to catch rabbits, but ended up being bitten to death by a rabbit. Of course he would be unwilling to accept that.
If he had died in Fengmen Village on the first night after he chose to travel through time, he would probably have been equally unwilling, right?
"Huh, I just ran the 'Star Instrument Performing Array' and it hasn't fully recovered yet. I really shouldn't have started another fight." Tang Zheng didn't plan to waste any more time talking to Xiao Gui. He was very tired now. The right thing to do was to kill the man quickly and go back to sleep.
He picked up the dagger, held it in reverse, and stabbed it into Xiaogui's heart.
"Ah..." Xiaogui screamed, but his eyes suddenly flashed with a few rays of light as if there was a last burst of light in them.
The moment Tang Zheng's dagger pierced his heart, he didn't know where he got the strength from, but he actually grabbed Tang Zheng's arm back.
Then, he exerted force suddenly, and blood flowed out from his heart, but Tang Zheng was grabbed by the arm and thrown directly against the wall at the end of the dead end!
Tang Zheng's back hit the wall heavily and he groaned. He wiped the corner of his mouth and there were traces of blood on the back of his hand.
Right in front of him, Xiao Gui, who was on the verge of death, stood up with trembling legs...
And the constellation behind him, the originally dim petal cheetah, suddenly had a star lighting up above its tail!
"Die!" Xiaogui's eyes were filled with red bloodshot. At the critical moment of life and death, he succeeded in attracting the star and became a one-star warrior!
"Oh my god, a breakthrough at the last minute?" Tang Zhengming knew it was inappropriate to laugh at a time like this, but he laughed anyway. "The script is wrong again! Who of us is the time traveler?"
