The two people on the stone platform stood like stone statues, as if they were originally protruding parts of the stone, fixed on the stone since ancient times. The faces of the two of them are actually different, the younger one has quite curved eyebrows, which makes his whole face look naughty, while the older one has high eyebrows, which makes him look melancholy. The reason why people think they are similar is that their expressions are exactly the same: staring at each other, pursing their lips tightly, they must have fought each other in the big fight just now, are they trying to figure out each other's weakness at this time? Ready to attack?Or do you feel that you have no hope of defeating the other party, and you have no way to run away? ──Don't laugh at those who run away!When you know that there is no possibility of victory, running away is not a tragedy, and even being unable to escape is the real tragedy.

Everything on the stone platform was frozen, the accumulated blood was frozen, people were frozen, and the half-raised sharp blade was frozen.Only the light on the edge of the blade is flickering, mysterious and malicious. The thin old man commanded, and the sound that seemed to tear people apart was heard again, endlessly. This time, after the order to duel was issued, the two duels did not act immediately, but still stood still. This seems to be quite philosophical: if you don’t move, even if you have flaws, they won’t be exposed easily; if you move, no matter how carefully you cover up your flaws, they will always be exposed.

Have you ever heard the story of "Stay dumb"?I don’t know when this idiom has been misused. It originally meant that the best fighting cock, when trained successfully, is like a chicken carved out of wood. After entering the field, it does not move at all. When I saw it, I had no choice but to wait and see. Judging from the two people on the stone platform, they were like that at this moment, they didn't move, they didn't even lower their eyes, but gradually, it could be seen that murderous intent appeared in the eyes of the two of them. The murderous intent was originally hidden, but at this moment, it gradually emerged, and it became more and more concentrated.

The spectators on the side of the stone platform also kept their eyes on the stone platform. Strangely, their eyes were all looking at the middle part of the stone platform.The two stood at one corner of the stone platform, and the central part was empty. Of course, it was not the first time for them to watch a duel, so they didn't stare at the two people, but only at the middle part of the stone platform. They knew that if one side moves, the other side must follow suit, and the two sides will quickly cross the stone platform. Meet in the middle of the stage, and then, the decisive attack will take place there.

No one knew when the blow would happen, so they must have kept their eyes there.If it wasn't like that, and the gaze followed the moving person, it would not be able to catch up with the speed of the two people. When the murderous intent in the eyes of the two of them gradually increased, although everything was frozen, even the air was like a thin string that was stretched tight. As long as there is a slight force, the string will break. The older one, the melancholy in his eyes was replaced by a gloomy, terrifying, flickering killing intent, after the killing intent filled every cell in his body, overflowing from his eyes Come out, he couldn't wait any longer.

At this moment, the fat and thin old men quickly glanced at each other.Although the two people on the stone platform have not yet started to act, they have already judged the outcome of life and death. The one who overflows with murderous intent first dies. Because he can no longer control himself: in this life-and-death duel, those who cannot control themselves will naturally lose. Suddenly, there was a loud noise like thunder, which broke the silence, and only then did the shouting sound come out. The older figure flashed and moved forward, and the younger one also faced his opponent almost at the same time.

The actions of the two people are so fast. When they rush forward, because the retina of the human eye can hold the scene for one-fifteenth of a second, the two people are rushing forward. When I was walking, my body had multiple shadows, and I couldn't tell what was virtual and what was real. The two approached quickly, the older one slashed first, and when the blade slashed through the air, it made a sharp whistling sound. Naturally, he had spotted his opponent before he struck first, but he slashed through the air. , the knife light was long and long, and stayed in the darkness for a moment.

His opponent moved too fast, he thought he was aiming at the opponent, but in fact, when he slashed out, he slashed at a phantom, the illusion formed by the retina of his eyes, made him slash through the air. Of course he knew that there was no chance for a second strike. His only chance was to continue to charge forward at a very high speed, hoping to avoid the opponent's strike. At that moment, because he rushed forward with all the strength of his whole body, and his upper body bent forward, every fiber of the muscles on his face was beating violently, as if they would fall down, making his whole head, Like a skeleton.

Judging from his age, he comes as a "gold", so he is naturally very experienced. In his life, he has experienced countless times of massacres, and the human body cut by the sharp blade in his hand is also very experienced. I don't know how many.After going through so many fights, he is still alive, so naturally he has his uniqueness. Therefore, his action at this time was right.His opponent, no matter how fast he strikes, if he hits his head, slices his neck, chops his back, or even chops his waist, he will be in vain, because his upper body, due to the bursting out of the whole body, will fail. The strength quickly leaned forward, already out of the opponent's attack range.

If his action is successful, he can make up for the mistakes he made just now. However, the chances of making up for mistakes after making mistakes are extremely slim.Mistakes are things that have already happened, and they will remain there forever. Even if you have the ability to reverse time and space, mistakes will still appear after a certain period of time. No power can erase what has happened. So, it's best not to make mistakes -- a mistake can be an eternal hate! The older "Jin Jinlai" had already achieved the peak of his mind and physical strength, but his opponent, with a horizontal knife, slashed at his calf.

A knife like lightning. His upper body left the range of the attack faster than Lightning, but gravity made his feet leave a little slower than Lightning. With a sudden wind, the sharp blade cut through the skin (the stratum corneum, transparent layer, granular layer and germinal layer of the epidermis, the connective tissue and fat layer of the dermis), and the sharp blade cut through the muscles (smooth muscle, skeletal muscle, sarcolemma, muscle fiber), The sharp blade cuts off the nerves and blood vessels, and the sharp blade cuts off the bones (periosteum, cortical bone, cancellous bone, bone marrow membrane). As a result, his right calf, about a palm below the knee, broke off.However, the slash was not over yet, and everything happened again on the same part of his left calf. The result of the replay was very normal, and his left calf also left his body. The structure of the human body is so complicated, but at this time, the process of cutting off the feet is so simple. After the young one slashed out, his figure immediately stood still, and there was no need to deliver a second blow. He hung his head halfway, sweat and blood stains on his face dripped down in big drops. The one whose legs were cut off was still leaning forward, and fell quite a distance before falling heavily on the stone platform. The forward momentum of this servant was accumulated by using all his energy just now, and he did not It didn't weaken because his legs were separated from the body, making him look like he was flying out, but from his broken leg, two streams of thick and urgent blood spurted out. Just now, his sharp blade caused others to bleed, now, other people's sharp blade caused him to bleed. His broken legs were still in their original positions.The resultant point of the gravitational force acting on each part of the object—the center of gravity, the object will not fall unless it leaves the area of ​​the bottom of the object.Therefore, his pair of broken legs were still standing upright, strangely and stubbornly standing upright, blood was overflowing, it looked like two overflowing glasses of blood-red wine. At that moment, there was complete silence, and then, a group of three bystanders cheered, and another group of three people, without a word, turned around and hurried away. Then, the man with the broken legs turned over, turned around, not only turned around, but also sat up, staring at his broken legs, showing an extremely weird look, fingers Let go, the sharp knife he was holding fell into the pool of blood, and slowly sunk in, he tried his best to bend down, his hands touched the place where the calf should have been, and even touched the place where the foot should have been. place, but of course he couldn't touch anything. Then, he lifted his eyes and saw his own pair of calves that were still upright, as if he didn't understand what happened until then. So, he suddenly shouted: "Save me! Save me! I don't want to die, I don't want to die, save me, I have a lot of gold nuggets, I will give them to whoever saves me, I don't want to die, I want to get out of this damn place , I want to leave alive." His screams are simply howls, extremely shrill, even if the eighteen layers of hell are opened and all the evil spirits are released (like what Mu Lian did to save his mother back then), the howls he makes will not be heard. It will be so harsh and unpleasant, and it will not be like countless invisible poisonous snakes, drilling into every pore of the body. However, his call did not arouse anyone's reaction. The three leaders of the "foreign gang" he belonged to had already left immediately after he fell—"Gold Come" who broke his legs, Worse than an empty bottle of wine. The fat and thin old men also walked away separately. The sweat on the young victor's face was gradually reduced under the rustling breeze. He stood up very slowly and jumped off the stone platform. Surrounded by the three chiefs, they also left quickly. He was still screaming, not only screaming, but also crawling forward, before his pair of broken feet, suddenly let out a heart-piercing howl, and hugged his pair of broken legs tightly in his arms middle. It's a pity that the words "replantation of amputated limbs" were not even thought of by anyone in his era. He raised his head, the moonlight was cold and unresponsive, the river was rushing without change, and the rock stood tall and unmoved. He is a loser, a loser in a duel, what else can he pray for except death? Then, the strange scene appeared. Before describing the strange things that have occurred, let me explain.
