刹那间,魏公功的脑海中闪过无数种可能性,这一切最终都化为谨慎.
这一刻,陈洛感觉自己仿佛被注射了肾上腺素,全身散发着热量.他培养的内功,很像荷尔蒙,不断流经他的身体,让他处于兴奋的状态.
他杀了人.
没有不适.
也许是因为他见过那么多尸体,但对陈洛来说,那种感觉就像他刚刚杀了两只鸡——他的心里保持着彻底的平静.
"小罗?"
陈老三咽了口水,小心翼翼地喊道.
"三叔,你退后.别沾满鲜血,"陈洛说着,眼睛盯着眼前的老太监.一股杀意在他心中涌动.
杀死一个和杀死两个是一样的.
对于明明是敌人的人来说,如果他现在不对付他们,他会等到新年吗?至于后果,此时此刻,谁还在乎呢?最坏的情况是,他可以收拾行装前往山区,带着三叔一起去,在荒野中过着真正的男人的生活.
陈老三愣了一下,然后后退了两步.他一离开陈洛,陈洛就立即行动起来.他用脚踩在地上,像一只掠食性老虎一样向前冲去,跃向空中.他的手变成了爪子,一只瞄准了白发太监的喉咙,另一只瞄准了他的心脏.
他的拳头如风般动动,一股杀气向外散发.
繁荣!!
就在这时,魏公公终于反应过来了.忘记了背后的任何潜在阴谋,他的首要任务是保住自己的性命.
他的手臂与陈洛虎爪相撞,发出闷响.他们俩都踉踉跄跄地往后退.
魏公公后退了三步,而陈洛后退了五步.
"内在能量?"
魏公公的脸上写满了震惊.他不明白这样一位强大的高手是从哪里冒出来的,也不明白他们为什么会选择与他和他的团队为敌.
他们会是某人的后备吗?
这个想法让魏公公的脸色更加阴沉.
"像你这种水平的专家,永远不可能默默无闻.说——谁派你来的?!
陈洛根本没有回应,只专注于发起猛烈的攻击.
魏公公的脸色一黑,不再浪费言语.他眯起的眼睛盯着陈洛,动作迅速,伸出了左手.他修长的手指迅速伸到他的腰间,一把柔软的蛇状剑出现在他的手中.
"好,好,好."
"一只被阉割的狗,但仍然问这么多问题."
陈洛并不在意这些人背后的阴谋.这一刻,他的脑海中只有一个念头在闪过.
杀了这个该死的太监.
"不知道的东西!"
白发太监的身影忽悠,突然,鬼影出现在他的脚下.他的速度瞬间加快了数十倍.一道寒光闪过,一道剑雨从四面八方降下,瞄准了陈洛的要害.
软剑极其灵活和快速.
那一刻,在陈洛的眼中,感觉自己身体的每一个部位都被盯上了,被一股压倒性的危险感所包围.
'利用地形!'
不知不觉中,来自流浪剑士的某种脑电波在他的脑海中回荡,给了他一个提示.与此同时,他的身体也做出了反应.剑光一闪而过,纤细的刀刃擦过陈洛的脸颊,在他的左侧脸上留下一道细长的伤口.
"然而,剩下的剑光却恰好击中了他身边的柱子.他利用院子里的横梁和柱子,成功地躲过了这一致命的攻击.
'Die!'
Chen Luo, having spun around the pillar, retaliated mid-air with a counterattack, his arm sweeping across like the tail of a tiger."
Bang bang bang!
The old eunuch on the opposite side reacted very quickly, and in the blink of an eye he fought with Chen Luo for more than a dozen moves.
After the blow, the auras of both of them fluctuated violently.
Chen Luo panted heavily, his left hand dripping with blood, and his eyes filled with even more killing intent. On the other side, the old eunuch's hand, gripping the soft sword, trembled incessantly, looking far less composed than he appeared on the surface.
The yard was in a mess after the fight between the two men. All the tables, chairs and benches were smashed. Not far away, two bodies were still bleeding. The pungent smell of blood filled the air, making people more and more uneasy.
"To have such excellent skills at such a young age, why not choose to serve the imperial court?"
Eunuch Wei panted, staring at Chen Luo across from him, secretly adjusting his breathing to recover.
Chen Luo was in the same situation.
His exhaustion was even greater than Eunuch Wei's. Normally, he wouldn't stand a chance against this old eunuch. Their experience in battle was on entirely different levels, not to mention that the eunuch's internal energy was stronger than his.
But Chen Luo has too many brains.
With so many martial artists' experiences gathered in one person's mind, he gained combat skills far beyond that of ordinary people.
Swords, spears, sabers, halberds, staffs, forks—there was no weapon he didn't understand.
"If you're willing, I can recommend you to His Majesty. At that time, you and I will serve the Emperor together. Wouldn't that be more promising than the current situation?" Seeing that Chen Luo remained silent, Eunuch Wei continued speaking.
His exhaustion was immense, and he needed more time to recover.
All this chatter was merely to divert Chen Luo's attention. He had already made up his mind—this kid had to be killed. Someone who showed no fear of imperial power had no place by his side. Knowing full well that he was from the palace, yet acting without the slightest hesitation, showing no fear of being investigated afterward and having his entire family exterminated... who would dare to keep such a person alive?
"Have you rested well?"
Chen Luo suddenly spoke up from the other side.
The breathing that had been heavy earlier instantly stabilized, and internal energy surged, rushing toward him in an instant. Eunuch Wei, who had been ready to continue his useless chatter, changed expression and raised his soft sword to block with the fastest speed.
Clang!!
Sparks flew in all directions.
The terrifying force bent the soft sword, driving it straight toward Eunuch Wei's chest. The momentum didn't lessen and struck him with a crash, followed by the sound of ribs snapping. It was only then that Eunuch Wei noticed what had appeared in Chen Luo's hand—he didn't know when it had shown up.
Half a brick!
Earlier, when the two had clashed, they had knocked over a stone table in the courtyard.
This half brick was something Chen Luo had taken advantage of and picked up in that moment.
Aren't you supposed to be using your fists?
Eunuch Wei's face turned pale, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
That blow had injured his internal organs, and the evenly matched situation was instantly shattered. What frustrated him the most was that Chen Luo didn't play by the rules at all. A perfectly good martial artist, and yet he had used a brick during the fight!
Chen Luo had no intention of wasting words with him—strike while the enemy is down! Explaining things to your opponent out of kindness was sheer stupidity, the kind of mistake villains always made. That kind of thing would never happen with him.
In a flash, he dashed forward again, brick in hand.
Eunuch Wei suppressed his injuries, forced to engage in a second round of combat.
But this time, the more Eunuch Wei fought, the more frustrated he became. It wasn't long before he took two more hits from the brick—one even slammed right into his forehead. Blood streamed down his face, making him look utterly wretched.
Chen Luo was injured too—Eunuch Wei's soft sword was vicious and treacherous.
His arm and back had both been slashed, though the sword wounds didn't look as dramatic.
"I admit defeat... Give me a chance,"Eunuch Wei coughed up blood as he spoke, his lungs burning with pain.
"Alright."Chen Luo took a deep breath and finally stopped his attack.
As his movements slowed, Eunuch Wei could no longer hold on. A wave of dizziness washed over him. The weakness from blood loss surged up, and his mind grew fuzzy—he wasn't even sure if the brick had rattled something loose in his brain.
Before the thought had fully formed, he suddenly sensed something in front of him.
Looking up, he saw a bloodstained half-brick flying straight at his face.
Thud!
"I knew it..."
That was the last thought to flash through Eunuch Wei's mind before everything went dark.
