"Hahahaha …"
Li Mu laughed with tears.
"Coward."
He pointed at Cloud-dragon Sword Mu Renlong, who was kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy.
To be honest, he did not expect that Cloud-dragon Sword Mu Renlong, who was known as one of the four fast swordsmen of northwest Wulin World and the sworn brother of Dongfang Jian, Qiu Zihan and Gao Shengpeng, was so timid that he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy as soon as he was pulled into the darkroom of torture.
The soldiers and guards in the darkroom looked at Mu Renlong, and their faces showed their nostrils.
Before today, these people were still heroes and masters in their minds. They were the objects that they envied and wanted to be.
But now, the soldiers suddenly felt that the so-called Jianghu heroes were just some ordinary people. They were far from the image of those masters who were proud in the mountains and had the courage of swords and zither in their imagination.
And the disciples of Mu Renlong were even worse than ordinary people like them.
Mind-clearing Sword Gao Shengpeng, who was standing beside Mu Renlong, showed shame on his face, but he also lowered his head and did not rebuke Mu Renlong.
Because he was also very afraid.
Before he and Mu Renlong were dragged in, in the past six hours, there were already 56 masters of Joint-qi level in Jianghu who were put in the county government prison. They were dragged into this torture darkroom and never came out again.
The Jianghu heroes in the prison could vaguely hear the sounds of angry roars and fighting through the cracks of the door of the darkroom. There were also all kinds of wails and screams that came through the cracks of the keyhole.
These sounds could be heard faintly and not very clear.
But it was enough for the Jianghu people who were imprisoned outside to associate it and fall into the abyss of fear.
The more they thought, the more they were afraid.
The more they were afraid, the more they couldn't help thinking.
The fear was constantly magnified in the imagination and drowned everyone.
Every time someone was pulled out of the crowd in the prison, the strong-willed people would tremble, some left their last words to their familiar companions, some cursed Li Mu loudly, and some struggled desperately, crying like ghosts and howling like wolves, as if the end of the world was coming, and they were scared to death.
And among these ugly people, there were several tough characters in the northwest Jianghu with vicious means.
In the face of death, these people collapsed faster than others.
Therefore, Gao Shengpeng could deeply understand Mu Renlong's ugliness at this time.
In fact, if it wasn't for the last shred of rationality and dignity in the depths of his heart that allowed him to stand trembling, he would have already knelt on the ground.
Li Mu sat behind the big table, eating melon seeds and watermelon, his face full of contempt.
He winked at her.
A guard threw two long swords in front of the Heart-clearing Sword and the Cloud-dragon Sword.
"The winner can live."
Li Mu spat out two melon seeds.
Mu Renlong was stunned for a moment, then immediately rushed over like a mad dog, grabbed a sword, and mercilessly stabbed Gao Shengpeng.
Almost at the same time, Gao Shengpeng also grabbed a sword.
Clang!
The swords clashed and sparks flew.
"How dare you attack me with your sword?" Mu Renlong was stunned and roared, "I am your third brother, how dare you …"
"If I don't attack, will I stand there and be stabbed to death by you, a coward who is greedy for life?" Gao Shengpeng sneered.
For the sake of the "living" one mentioned by Li Mu, the two of them had abandoned their friendship and ridiculed each other. They were no longer like brothers, but more ferocious and fiercer than enemies. They could not wait to stab each other with their swords.
Both of them were famous fast swordsmen in the northwest Wulin World. They fought with speed. In the darkroom, the shadow of the sword moved back and forth like lightning, the Sword Qi whistled, the flowing light appeared and disappeared, and the dense sound of metal colliding like thunder beat the eardrums of everyone in the torture darkroom.
The battle was extremely fierce.
Soon, Mu Renlong and Gao Shengpeng were injured.
The two of them were sworn brothers, and they often learned from each other, so they knew each other's swordsmanship very well. Therefore, the battle was extremely fierce and they were both injured, but they both avoided the fatal wounds in each other's moves. Although they were covered with blood, they were just superficial wounds.
Mu Renlong's "Three Appearances of Cloud-dragon Swordsmanship" and Gao Shengpeng's "Mind-clearing and Will-seeking Swordsmanship" were both the peak combat skills in the eighth grade swordsmanship, and they were indeed much more brilliant than the combat skills displayed by those Jianghu people before.
Li Mu even put aside the watermelon and the melon seeds and watched very carefully.
Although Li Mu could slap the two fast swordsmen unconscious in the process of today's arena battle, it was because Li Mu's speed, strength, and reaction completely crushed them at that time. It did not mean that Li Mu was stronger than them in terms of martial arts attainments, theoretical level, and combat skills.
Li Mu's advantages lay in strength, speed, and reaction.
And his disadvantage lay in combat skills.
If he encountered an enemy with the same strength and speed, Li Mu would be at a disadvantage.
He was very clear about this.
Moreover, when he was on Earth, the old faker had said more than once that combat skills were very important.
When the skills were honed to a certain extent, they were close to the rules and the Great Way.
This was the so-called "skills are close to the Great Way".
Even the immortals mentioned by the old faker also attached great importance to the cultivation of combat skills. All kinds of immortal methods, magic skills, and so on could increase the fighting power of immortals, which was the only way to defeat the strong with the weak.
Li Mu's idea was very simple.
He wanted to start from zero, from nothing, to temper his own path of battle techniques.
In this process, of course, there must be reference and imitation. Only with enough accumulation, from simple to complex, from shallow to deep, could energy change lead to qualitative change. This was the most basic philosophy theory in junior high school politics class.
Therefore, he imprisoned so many Jianghu masters.
On the one hand, of course, he wanted to punish and frighten them and make them pay for their evil deeds in Taibai County. On the other hand, in this way, he could learn and observe these people's martial arts and combat skills, enrich his martial arts vision, improve himself, and open up his own road of martial arts and combat skills.
This was a bit like the method in the martial arts novel Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre written by Master Jin Yong on Earth, where the heroine Zhao Min imprisoned the martial arts masters of the seven major sects and forced them to teach her martial arts. In fact, Li Mu was indeed influenced by this plot in the novel.
And it turned out that this approach was correct.
Through the fighting of different martial arts masters, Li Mu's thinking and cognition about martial arts and combat skills were rapidly improving in his mind.
In particular, the fight between the powerful fast swordsmen was very exciting.
The two swordsmanship and combat skills were brilliant and profound.
Li Mu watched very carefully and was very fascinated.
His entire soul seemed to have sunk into this battle. He was like a young man who had his first awakening of love and saw the goddess of his dreams walking leisurely towards him. He was completely infatuated.
At this time —
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Two jets of sword light turned into lightning bolts and darted at Li Mu.
Mu Renlong and Gao Shengpeng, who were in the duel, suddenly attacked Li Mu who was fascinated.
These two swords were undoubtedly the strongest and most terrible swords since they entered the darkroom of torture.
And Mu Renlong, the Cloud-dragon Sword, and Gao Shengpeng, the Mind-clearing Sword, also burst out their strongest strength at this moment.
"Die!"
"Kill!"
Everything that the two of them had done before was all an act.
The purpose of acting was for this moment of opportunity.
However, at the moment when the sword lights hit his body, Li Mu seemed to have been prepared for a long time. His figure flashed and disappeared from the armchair.
The next moment, he appeared next to the weapon rack with two swords in his hands.
"Good acting, but unfortunately, you can't kill me."
Li Mu smiled faintly and moved forward.
He used swords with both hands. His left hand was the Cloud-dragon Three Appearances Swordsmanship, and his right hand was the Mind-clearing Swordsmanship. The two swords attacked Mu Renlong and Gao Shengpeng at the same time.
At first, Li Mu was a little unfamiliar.
But soon, the swords with both hands became more and more skillful and fast.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Lightning danced and the sword lights collided.
After 15 minutes, Mu Renlong and Gao Shengpeng were shocked and heartbroken.
Both of them looked as if they had seen a ghost.
What Li Mu used was their unique swordsmanship, and it was getting more and more brilliant, gradually surpassing them. The changes of the swords were exquisite, and the timing of the moves was mastered, as if he had been immersed in it for decades.
Moreover, he used two swords with two different swordsmanship. It was unheard of for a person to use two sets of swordsmanship at the same time, but the effect was wonderful, as if he had split into two people.
Ding!
Two crisp sounds.
The swords in Mu Renlong and Gao Shengpeng's hands flew out at the same time.
The two cried out in pain, covered the cracked purlicue, and hurriedly withdrew.
"Hahaha, the knowledge gained from the paper is shallow, and the knowledge must be practiced …" Li Mu laughed and began to recite the ancient poems on the earth to pretend to be cool.
However, observing and comprehending was indeed a different feeling compared to actually fighting and feeding each other moves.
After fighting with the two masters, his mastery of the Three Appearances of Cloud-dragon Swordsmanship and the Mind-clearing and Will-seeking Swordsmanship was really full and skillful.
Mu Renlong and Gao Shengpeng looked pale, and their hearts were dead.
It was not a matter of inferior skills.
It was a comprehensive, no blind angle, thorough, and fundamental crushing.
"We admit defeat. You can do it."
"We have nothing to say."
The two looked at each other, and there was no hatred on their faces before. They looked calm. Since acting was useless, there was no need to act. The four fast swords on the northwest Wulin World were not greedy for life and afraid of death, so how could they really kill each other?
"Oh, deep brotherhood. Haha, I hate people like you the most. To be honest, it's really a headache to deal with trash like you who claim to be chivalrous, but narrow-minded and do things that will bring disaster to the country and the people, but you are still very stubborn."
Li Mu still didn't have a good impression on these two people.
Which of the heroes on the northwest Wulin World did not kill people like flies, and their hands were stained with the blood of innocent people?
They were only happy for themselves, for the so-called brotherhood, killing without caring about the mortals.
For example, Mu Renlong and Gao Shengpeng were also evaluated in the information collected by the county government. They were not good people. In these days in Taibai County, although they did not directly kill civilians, it was only because they did not have time and energy, and they also connived their men to rob in the county, which was no different from doing it themselves.
"Write to your families, each of you get two eighth-grade fighting skills, a ransom of 10,000 taels of gold, or equivalent food, and come to Taibai County to redeem you, otherwise, you will stay in this prison until the end."
Li Mu pointed to the table next to him.
That was his final solution.
Make a lot of money.
In the end, under the coercion and temptation of Li Mu, the two fast swords wrote letters to their families.
Li Mu sent someone to the post station with the letters.
Then, the two were put on special handcuffs and shackles again and pressed down.
Such "felons", of course, Li Mu would not let them go so easily as he let Zhang Ning and Wang Chong go.
Then, for about a day and a night, Li Mu did the same thing.
Even "Sky-upholding Iron Hands" Tie Zhendong and "Sky Dragon Sword" Dongfang Jian could not escape such a bad fate. They were forced to fight by Li Mu, and their fighting skills were learned, and then they were forced to write letters to their families, begging their families to redeem them with a huge ransom.
