Many years ago, in the bitter cold land of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, there lived a young shepherd boy. The boy had lost his parents since he was a child, and he and his sister were dependent on each other. They were all alone, earning a meager salary to support their brother and sister by herding sheep for the rancher. Although life was hard, the brother and sister were still alive.

The relationship is very good, but I can live with it.

On the grasslands of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, horse thieves were rampant. They would loot the pastures every three or five days. Among them, the blood wolves led by the evil ghost Batamu were the most ferocious. Other horse thieves often snatched seven and kept three, in a sustainable way.

The development route can allow the herdsmen to survive and continue next year, but Batamu's Blood Wolf Party does not care about these. The pastures they robbed are barren of grass. In addition to bloodbathing the herdsmen, they will also burn the pastures with fire.

One day, the blood wolf robbed the young man's ranch. The bandit leader Batamu saw the young man's pretty sister, so he kidnapped her and brought her back to the camp. When the young man came back, he found that his sister had been snatched away, and he became bloody. That night

, the young man took a hatchet and entered the blood wolf's camp. In his sleep, he cut Batamu's throat and scalp. He frantically searched for his sister in the camp, but finally found her.

He had been brutally attacked, naked, covered in scars, and died under the humiliation of horse thieves.

The young man fell into despair, with a ball of rage burning in his chest. Looking at the horse thieves who were dozens of times his own, the young man had a death wish in his heart, like a crazy hungry wolf, fighting left and right, carving a bloody path.

However, there were so many people on the other side that he was exhausted after a short while, but there was hatred in his heart. This hatred supported his will. In the desperate situation, the young man realized the sword technique of ten deaths and no life, and fought for his life with a knife.

Life was exchanged for life. Although there were many people, I had never seen such a lifeless fighting method, but the young man was red-blooded and ended up taking thirty-six stabs and killing forty-seven people.

When he was dying, a lord led an army to suppress the bandits and rescued the young man. You must know that these horse thieves are all cruel. When you know that the young man is alone, he kills from late night to dawn, almost killing the blood wolf with one person.

When he was exhausted, the lord was in awe and ordered his men to take good care of him.

The young man finally saved his life, but from the moment he woke up, he remained stunned and silent. Until one day, the lord handed the two bells on his sister's wrist to his hand.

When the boy saw the bell, he burst into tears. After a long time, he tied the bell to the end of his hair.

The lord asked: "What is your name?"

The young man said: "Ding Dong!"

"Last name?"

"I don't have a last name."

The lord laughed, "From now on, your name is Tuoba Dingdang, and you are my adopted son, Tuoba Yicheng!"

In the following decades, the young man followed the lord in the north and south, and made great achievements. The lord Tuoba Yicheng finally defeated other tribes, regained the lost scepter of Tuoba's lineage, and sat on the throne of the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

Tuoba Dingdang, with the support of Tuoba Yicheng, founded Tiance Pavilion and became the number one master in the Northern Zhou Kingdom. The hatchet in his hand became the feared "death knife" in the world.

”, and he was called the Martial God of the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

After becoming invincible in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Tuoba Dingdang yearned for the martial arts of the Central Plains, so he led his disciples south to the Central Plains. In Wudang, he challenged the Wudang Eighteen Swords Formation with swords. In Shaolin, he fought one against four and ended up in a draw with the four King Kongs. After that, he stayed

An arrogant statement like "The martial arts world in the Central Plains is nothing more than that" and left in a carefree manner.

Due to the death of his sister, Tuoba Dingdang's character became eccentric and he was extremely protective of his disciples. Not long ago, Tuoba Bai and Fan Xiaodao died violently in a martial arts competition. This made Tuoba Dingdang furious. Outsiders only knew that Tuoba Bai was his

A closed disciple, but insiders know that this young master is actually Tuoba Dingdang's illegitimate son, and he has been extremely doting on him since he was a child. Originally, this mission was Tuoba Bai's first trip to a distant place, and he wanted him to

He went out to gain a lot of experience, but unexpectedly he didn't gain enough experience and died tragically in the hands of Fan Xiaodao.

On the day when Tuoba Bai's body was sent back, Tuoba Dingdang stayed awake all night guarding his body.

Early the next morning, he took out the hatchet that had been sealed for a long time and embarked on the road south.

…

When they learned that the person in front of them was none other than the famous Martial God of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Fan Xiaodao and Zhao Xing became uneasy. The two subconsciously went to draw their swords, but they found that the opponent's Qi had locked them tightly.

Yes, as long as the two of them make the slightest move, they will be met with destruction.

No one Tuoba Dingdang wanted to kill could survive.

His words are like the death talisman of the Lord of Hell.

The two decided to escape, but with a thought, the other party noticed his intention, and a fierce murderous intention blocked their escape route in advance. Seeing that there was no escape, Fan Xiaodao took a step forward with a knife in his hand,

Said: "I am Fan Xiaodao. Tuoba Bai's matter has nothing to do with Zhao Xing. Let him leave. If anything happens, just come to me!"

Zhao Xing was moved when he heard this.

He and Fan Xiaodao have known each other for nearly half a year and have been together almost day and night. The two of them are like brothers. Although Fan Xiaodao is a bit poor, he has never been ambiguous on major issues of right and wrong.

This made him recognize this brother even more.

Real brothers can defend each other instead of stabbing each other in the back.

This is the difference between Fan Xiaodao and Ding Yi.

He also took a step forward and stood side by side with Fan Xiaodao, "His business is my business. If you want to kill him, kill me too!"

Tuoba Dingdang said coldly, "What a pair of brothers in need. My son... my disciple Tuoba Bai, died at your hands?"

The experience of the duel with Tuoba Bai has been recorded in detail, and reached Tuoba Dingdang’s ears. Moreover, there were many onlookers at the time, so there was no way to deny it. Fan Xiaodao said, “It doesn’t count, it doesn’t count.”

"What do you mean it doesn't count?"

Fan Xiaodao said: "Tuoba Bai and I threw throwing knives in a competition. Both sides were blindfolded and fired a knife at each other. However, Tuoba Bai was unlucky and caught the throwing knife with his body. To be precise, that competition

, he won."

Tuoba jingled, "I will die under your flying knife after all."

Fan Xiaodao said, "Senior, if you say that, I can't refute it. However, the martial arts contest between me and Tuoba Bai was a small accident that occurred during the exchange between the Central Plains martial arts and the Northern Zhou martial arts. The martial arts contest was also held in Liufan according to law.

The two parties signed a life and death certificate, agreeing that no matter whether they win or lose, one party cannot seek revenge on the other party. The entire dispute is legal and compliant, and everything complies with the rules of the world."

Tuoba Dingdang said coldly, "It is in accordance with the rules of the world that the two of you have survived until now. Otherwise, you would have been dead long ago."

After that, he took out two throwing knives from his arms.

Fan Xiaodao recognized the two flying knives. They were the flying knives used by the two on the day of the competition. They were about three inches long, as thin as a crescent moon, and had a section of red silk at the end. One of them had a hint of bright red on the red silk.

The blood stain was exactly the blood stain left when Fan Xiaodao's flying knife pierced Tuoba Bai's heart.

Tuoba Dingdang waved his hand gently, and the flying knife without blood stains shot out like a ghost, towards Fan Xiaodao's face. Fan Xiaodao was horrified, and was about to draw the knife to chop, but unexpectedly the flying knife

The knife suddenly turned in front of him.

Finished!

Fan Xiaodao thought, but the next moment, he found that the flying knife had lost all its strength and fell into his arms.

The two were stunned with fear. What kind of kung fu was this?

When it comes to infusing internal force and splitting rocks with flying knives, both of them can do it. However, the flying knife changes direction during flight, releases the internal force, and falls into Fan Xiaodao's arms accurately. This skill can be controlled by controlling the heat.

With the control of internal force, it is enough to see that Tuoba Dingdang's martial arts has reached its peak and has long transcended the scope of martial arts!

"Senior, what are you doing?"

Tuoba Dingdang said: "Fan Xiaodao, in accordance with the rules of the world, I formally challenge you! Three days later, at Baihua Tower, I will compete with you in flying knives, the same way you duel with my apprentice!"

Fan Xiaodao said to his heart, be a good boy, Long Dong. Even with the skill you showed just now, even ten of me are no match for you. If I fight you in a duel, wouldn't that mean that an old man hangs himself because he thinks his life is too long? He waved his hand and said decisively:

"Senior, this is inappropriate!"

"Why?"

Fan Xiaodao explained sincerely: "First of all, you are a long-established great master in the world of martial arts, and I am just a transparent person in the world. There is a huge difference between our identities and our status in the world. If it is really spread, people will say

You bully the small with the big."

"Second, according to martial arts conventions, the juniors usually challenge the seniors in martial arts competitions, and those with relatively weak martial arts skills challenge the stronger ones. You have committed the above, which is against the common sense of the martial arts."

"Third, the Baihua Building where you mentioned the decisive battle has been sealed by six doors due to a crime. No one can enter at all, so even if I agree, the venue is not suitable."

"The fourth thing, according to the rules of the martial arts world, a duel requires the unanimous consent of both parties before it can proceed. Forced methods or unilateral offers cannot be used. Otherwise, breaking the rules of the martial arts world will cause public outrage in the martial arts world. When the time comes, you don't want to face the Central Plains martial arts world.

He was chased and intercepted and fled back to the Northern Zhou Dynasty, right? And I formally stated that I will not agree to your challenge to a duel!"

Hearing this, Tuoba Dingdang smiled coldly, "What a sharp-tongued and glib guy. What you said are not reasons. Baihua Tower is closed, so open it for me!"

Zhao Xing was stunned when he heard this and said: "Reopen Baihualou? Did Master Yu or Prince Consort Qian ask you to do this?"

Tuoba Dingdang said, "I don't know Master Yu, and I don't know any rich consort. My coming to the Central Plains is my personal behavior and has nothing to do with the court or the Northern Zhou Dynasty. I am not interested in the fight between your princelings and the Taiping Party.

What I want to do is not revenge, I just want to seek justice for my apprentice!"

"Justice?" Zhao Xing asked back, "In a martial arts duel, death and injury are inevitable. If the apprentice dies, the master takes action. How can it be fair?"

boom!

Zhao Xing's chest felt as if he was struck by lightning. He was stunned and was knocked away by a punch. Tuoba said, "In front of me, you have no place to speak!" He took a step forward and continued to lock Fan Xiaodao with his momentum.

, "I challenge you, will you answer or not?"

Fan Xiaodao endured the discomfort, gritted his teeth and said, "I won't agree!"

Tuoba Dingdang said, "If you don't agree, I will kill you tonight, take off your head, take it back to the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and hang it in front of my apprentice's grave. By then, even if you check, you won't be able to find it on my head, even if you check,

So, with your ability, can you catch me? I ask you again, do you agree?"

That powerful internal force seemed to have an invisible force that locked Fan Xiaodao's throat, making it difficult for him to breathe. It was like carrying a huge mountain on his back, weighing him down until he could not straighten his waist, but he still said: "

No!"

Tuoba Dingdang took a step forward, and the power became even stronger.

Fan Xiaodao's eyes were about to burst, and blood began to ooze from the corners of his eyes and ears.
Chapter completed!
