I leaned down and picked up the scimitar. At the same time, I also saw a miracle: the place where the Arab emerged was a dark tunnel! In the desert, there are actually tunnels. This is an unbelievable fact. I took a look and put the scimitar on the Arab's neck.However, before I could ask any questions, two Arabs emerged from the tunnel and pointed their blowtorches at me. Then, more and more Arabs came out of the tunnel, and in a blink of an eye, I was surrounded by fifteen Arabs. The fifteen Arabs just surrounded me without moving, but their faces were full of hostility. Under such circumstances, I really don't know what to do!I have a man in my arms, I can kill him immediately, but before I turn around, a poisoned arrow may be stuck in my vest.

If there was a big tree by my side, the situation would be different, and I might attack without hesitation. But there is nothing around me, only enemies.Facing the enemy almost naked, there is no room for concealment and retreat! I stood still, neither did the Arabs, the atmosphere was tense and embarrassing, and then I heard Aibo's voice. Before Aibo's body came out of the tunnel, he couldn't wait to shout: Wesley, don't hurt anyone, put down the knife! I was still thinking about whether I should listen to Aibo, but Aibo had jumped up, raised his hands, and yelled loudly in Arabic, and the dozen or so Arabs around me put down their hands. weapons.

I also let go and gave up the Arabian scimitar in my hand. Ai Bo's face was very frightened, and he rushed to me: Why are you here?God, why are you here? I asked him coldly with the same words: Why are you here? Before Aibo could answer, another Arab walked out of the tunnel. As soon as the Arab appeared, all the Arabs knelt down together.I also quickly looked at the Arab, and at a glance, I knew that he was the leader of this group of Arabs. Because most Arabs are topless, only a small number are wearing traditional Arab clothes.But this man was wearing a cloak embroidered with gold thread, and the scabbard of the Arabian scimitar hanging around his waist was also inlaid with precious stones.

The Arabs knelt on the ground without uttering a word.Aibo also bowed down to salute the Arab, and at the same time said to me: Wesley, bow quickly, he is the patriarch. I sneered: Why should I bow to him? The Arab, whom Aibo called the patriarch, took a step closer to me and looked at me proudly: Salute! He spoke French with a perfect accent, and it was evident that he had lived in France.I said coldly: politeness is two-sided, you don't salute me, why should I salute you? The patriarch put his hand on the handle of the knife, with a look of extreme anger on his face.Ai Bo hurried over: Your Excellency the patriarch, he is my best friend!The patriarch said angrily: Your best friend, but he refused to salute me!Ai Bo looked at me, but there was only a sneer on my face, of course I would not salute.

The patriarch raised his arms and yelled a few times, and the Arabs who were kneeling on the ground stood up together and looked at me fiercely. With my sword in my chest, I stared at them. Aibo said in a loud voice: Wesley, can you alone defeat them so much? I sneered and said: Ai Bo, you won't understand.Ai Bo turned around and shouted to the patriarch: This is too unfair, too unfair, aren't the Arabs the most fair? The patriarch's arm had already been raised upwards, and it seemed that he was about to give the order to order everyone to attack me.But Aibo's words made him change his mind, he stopped moving his hand, and said: I can let him fight Yupdobi to decide his own fate.

Aibo's face changed: Your Majesty, this is still unfair. You are the best at using knives among all the Arab peoples, and Yuputo is the most famous swordsman among you. This is not fair. Aibo tried his best to fight for my fair treatment, and convinced me that he had no ill intentions towards me, and that things might have been messed up by myself. The patriarch shook his head and said: No, absolutely fair, absolutely fair! Aibo spread his hands and looked at me. I smiled: I think the patriarch is fair, and I also want to meet the most famous swordsman among the Arab nations who are the best at using knives.

The patriarch laughed and patted Aibo on the shoulder: Aibo friend, do you still say I am unfair? Aibo sighed helplessly: Wesley, you ruined everything. I smiled apologetically: Aibo, what else can I do now?Can I still show weakness now?Aibo shouted: You can't show weakness, but you will fight more with Yupu, just because you refuse to bow to the patriarch, do you know how much Yupu is?He strikes like lightning and jumps like a mongoose. Before you can see the movement of his wrist, you are already blood-stained! I smiled lightly: Aibo, there may not be anything faster than lightning and more flexible than mongoose in the world.

Ai Bo clapped her hands together: Is that you?is that youBefore Yupuduo became the best swordsman in his family, I saw him leap forward and kill two German soldiers, and the two German soldiers didn't even have a chance to draw their guns ! I sincerely said: Thank you, Aibo, I would still rather meet Yupto than salute him. Aibo sighed.The head of the patriarch was already walking towards the cave, followed by seven or eight people, and then Aibo and I. When I walked in from the cave, I already knew that Aibo and that How did the three Arabs suddenly disappear in the desert?They naturally got into the hole!

However, there are still many things I don't understand. We were walking in the tunnel, and I saw that the tunnel was made of a large block of stones. It seems that this is not the current project. I asked: Aibo, where does this tunnel lead to? ? Aibo said weakly: leading to an ancient city, an ancient city that has long been forgotten by history. I was stunned: the ancient city is among these rocky cliffs? Aibo Road: Yes, all the buildings in the ancient city are made of local materials and rocks, so even if there are planes flying over the sky, they will never be found. The Germans dispatched dozens of reconnaissance planes back then This is the reason for the failure to discover the base of our activities.I said: So this is the base of your activities back then?

Ai Bo let out a long sigh: Yes, it was one of the bases where I was active in the desert. I once saved the life of the Patriarch Feisha at the hands of the German soldiers, so he allowed me to enter that ancient city, except Outside of their people, I am the only one who can enter that ancient city. I laughed: Now there are two, and me. Ai Bo smiled wryly: I mean, I am the only one who can enter this ancient city and come out. I couldn't help laughing out loud, so that all the Arabs in front of me stopped and turned to look at me, including Chief Feisha.I said: Aibo, do you think Uputo will definitely kill me?

Before Ai Bo could answer, Patriarch Fei Sha said loudly: No one can escape, only Yu Pu wants to kill him. I sneered: Your Excellency, patriarch, I don't think you will be so stingy that you won't order Yupudo to kill me, unless you are afraid that your boasting words will be shattered by the facts. Aibo's face turned pale, and what happened to Feisha's face, because the tunnel was very dark, so I couldn't see clearly.But when he walked forward again, the footsteps suddenly became heavy, which made me know that Patriarch Feisha was furious. Since I intend to meet the best Arab swordsman for a while, I hope that the opponent will go all out and display his stunts. This will also increase the danger of my life, but it is still worth it. Because in today's world, new weapons have made it easy for a powerless person to kill a samurai with superb sword skills.This inevitably makes people like me, who have been trained in ancient Chinese martial arts, feel sad. Now, I can compete with an Arab master with ancient weapons, how can I let go of such a good opportunity? Aibo kept sighing, while I kept asking: Aibo, when was that ancient city built, do you know? Ai Bodao: I'm not an archaeologist, I don't know, but I do know that the pyramid you're looking for must be related to that ancient city.I was overjoyed and said: How can I see it? Aibo said: In that ancient city, there is a half-destroyed statue of a god called the invisible god. Aren't you going to find some way of invisibility in that pyramid? I was even more delighted, because that ancient city was most likely built by the Egyptian Pharaoh at that time for the Sopa people from far away South America. Of course, the Sopa people from the fertile South American plains are not used to living in the desert. They may immediately abandon this ancient city and move to live near the Nile River. Note the reason too. I complained about Aibo: Then, why didn't you tell me earlier?Ai Bodao: I am not sure if they still live in the ancient city. Over the years, Egypt has undergone such earth-shattering changes. It is ridiculous to say that the patriarch is loyal to the deposed king of Egypt. The army of the Egyptian government has been hunting them down. , but it has never been known where they live together. I said again: Then what are you standing upside down in the desert for? Aibo glared at me: so you have been paying attention to me?You don't believe me, do you? I hurriedly said: Ai Bo, please don't say that, I just feel strange in my heart. Aibo shrugged: This group of Arabs is the pride of heaven in the desert. None of them is not good at using knives, not one is not good at archery, and none is not good at crawling in the sand. I know that if they are still alive If it is here, then our appearance will definitely attract their attention, and they will definitely send people to spy on us. I said: You still haven't said why you stand upside down in the sand. Aibo said: Don't you understand?If I am standing, it is not easy for me to see someone crawling in the sand, but if I stand upside down, my eyes are closer to the horizon, and there are moving dunes on the ground, it is easier for me to spot. I couldn't help laughing: Aibo, why don't you just lie on the ground? Aibo said: I can't hide myself. If I lie on the ground and they think that I hide myself intentionally, then they will immediately regard me as an enemy! I said: Got it, you don't want me to stay overnight because you are afraid that I will offend them? Ai Bo said: You also said that you finally offended them, and it was Chief Feisha who offended! I thought about it: Aibo, if I beat Yupudo, what do you think they will do to me?Aibo shook his head and said: This is impossible.I said: I said yes, you answer me, Ai Bodao: I don’t know how many members of their tribe wanted to defeat Yupuduo, but they all died under his sword, so that the patriarch has ordered that no one will fight with Yupudou. Yupuduo is the spiritual leader of this family If you win Yupuduo, can't you imagine your status in their eyes? I said: I can imagine it, maybe Patriarch Feisha will salute me instead. Alberto: Possibly, as long as you can win. At this time, our eyes suddenly lit up, and I saw a big stone door, which was pushed open.The light came in from that door, we passed through that door, and went up dozens of stone steps, and then we arrived at a stone square. I stood on the square and looked around, and couldn't help being dumbfounded. It's unbelievable that there is such a small ancient city among the cliffs! All the houses are made of big stones, which are very primitive and simple, which makes people feel like they are in a legend. But this group of Arabs is obviously very poor. The camels they raise are thin and lifeless, and their clothes are hard to cover their bodies, but it seems to them that they are still very strong and vigorous. Feisha raised his hands and shouted at the people who surrounded him and saluted him. Patriarch Feisha called: This outsider will compete with our honor, Yupudo! The words of Patriarch Feisha spread quickly, and I believe that within five minutes, all the Arabs in the ancient city knew the news.Feisha turned around again, and said to me: Everyone who duels Yuputo can enjoy my hospitality, please come to my residence. I smiled: It's kind of like a meal before execution, isn't it? Patriarch Feisha gave me a hard look and strode forward. Aibo sighed and touched me: let's go, enjoy your meal before execution! I smiled again. At this time, my mood can be said to be extremely excited.I don't think I will be able to win against Yupuduo.Because there are many similarities between Arab martial arts and ancient Chinese martial arts, both of them are very profound and mysterious. Arabs are famous all over the world for being good at using knives. So I feel very excited at this time. We followed Patriarch Feisha and walked forward.That ancient city was all built of large blocks of rock, and it was of such a large scale that it made people feel as if they were in the realm of the Arabian Nights. But now is the reality, because the real ruler of this ancient city seems to be poverty and disease, not Patriarch Feisha, which is even more incompatible with the treasures in the Arabian Nights. Wherever we passed, people poured from the streets. This is a very promising nation, because their spirit has never succumbed to poverty and disease. They are by no means lifeless, even if they are skinny. At this time, the child also uttered a very ugly and weird cry at me, as if mocking me for daring to fight Yupu more. Not long after, we arrived at the residence of Patriarch Feisha, which was a temple. The carvings on the walls and pillars of the temple are still intact, and I can recognize at a glance that the relief statues with animal heads and human bodies are exactly the same as those in the seven secret sacrificial rooms. At this time, I couldn't help but think of the diamonds inlaid in the eyes of the gods in the seven sacrificial rooms. If I can beat Yuputo, I must tell this secret to Chief Feisha and persuade him to donate this to the current Egyptian government. Secret, as the price that other people don't have to run around anymore.Because although his clansmen are strong, if they continue to hold on in this ancient city, there is only one way to perish. The patriarch's residence is on the temple, an old army blanket spread out on a big stone.But when Patriarch Feisha sat on that big rock, he looked as if he was sitting on a golden chair covered with pure white tiger skin. I looked around, and Patriarch Feisha said: It's very simple, isn't it? I shrugged: I'm sure you could find a way to live a better life than you have now, but you don't want to, do you? Patriarch Feisha proudly said: Of course, my people need me. I said: But it seems that you don't pay much attention to them! Patriarch Feisha's face turned red, and the rest of them turned blue.Aibo shouted: Wesley, be careful with your words. I raise my arms: I'm careful enough, can't you see?Patriarch Feisha made his people wallow in poverty and hardship! Patriarch Feisha let out a strange roar, and abruptly pulled out the saber from his waist, and rushed towards me like a fierce tiger. I backed up, backed up, backed up again. Patriarch Feisha fired seven or eight knives at me, the light of the knives was shining, and the wind of the knives was like lightning, but I just backed away. Fei Sha stood still and shouted loudly: Fight back, coward, fight back! I said coldly: Where is Yupuduo?I want to meet the best knife hand! I said this on purpose, because I want Feisha to realize that he is nothing special. Times have changed. He is by no means a patriarch when the Arabs dominated the world, but a patriarch who huddled in an ancient city and waited to die. However, if he is willing to abandon his stubborn ideas, then he and his people can be saved. So I tried my best to stimulate him and make him feel that he is not great.Aibo obviously didn't know my intention, so his face changed color with fright.Patriarch Feisha's scimitar cut halfway, and stopped suddenly: Do you want to meet with Uputo immediately? I smiled and said, "Has the last meal been cancelled? That's fine, please invite Yupudo to meet me." Patriarch Feisha yelled a few words to an Arab beside him, and the Arab ran out. The temple fell silent, and no one made a sound, only Patriarch Feisha kept sneering.Ten minutes later, the Arab who ran away just now rushed in first, his face was very excited.Behind him, a man, who was the only Arab wearing a shirt besides Sheikh Faisal and the women, strode in. A smile appeared on Patriarch Feisha's face immediately, he opened his arms, and went up to him, the man also opened his arms, and the two of them came up close, patting each other's shoulders. Aibo is one step closer to me: that's Yupdo. I knew a long time ago that the person who can receive such a grand welcome from Chief Feisha must be the best swordsman in their clan, Yupuduo. I kept my composure and looked at You Puduo, only to see that he was very tall, more than half a head taller than me.His arms are also very long, which looks a little out of phase. There was a scimitar hanging from his waist, and the scabbard was inlaid with precious stones. The luxury of the scabbard was in no way commensurate with the rags of his clothes.But the expression on his face was very proud and noble, far above the scabbard.He has hawk-like eyes and a hawk-like nose, and after just a few glances, I can see that he is by no means easy to deal with! When I was looking at him, Patriarch Feisha was talking to him impatiently, and of course he was talking about me, because Uputo was also looking at me.The two of us looked at each other, and for about half a minute, he suddenly bypassed Patriarch Feisha and walked towards me step by step. I straightened myself up, and he came to me directly, and said in very blunt and inaccurate French: You want to compete with me, don't you? I nodded and said: Not bad. You Puduo said: I never despise my opponent, but I never make the opponent think that he is not worth losing Before I understood what Youpuduo meant by this statement, Yupuduo's arm shook suddenly.well!I didn't realize that when he was speaking, his hand was gradually approaching the handle of the knife.But after I thought about it, even if I found out that he would make some moves, I still couldn't deal with it in time, because the speed of his sword, as Ai Bo said, was like lightning! At that time, when his arm trembled, I only heard a thud, my eyes suddenly became bright, and the top of my head suddenly felt cold, and then there was another thud, Yupuduo had returned to his original posture , still standing in front of me. All of this, at most, happened within a second. There was a crying sound in Aibo's voice, he shouted: Wesley, oh, Wesley! I didn't understand what happened, so I turned around and asked, "What for?"Aibo, what are you doing? All the people laughed, only two people didn't laugh, one was Ai Bo and the other was Yu Pudo. Aibo looked at me and shook her head sadly: touch the top of your own head, Wesley! That's right, You Pudo seemed to have stabbed me just now, and the top of my head was also cold, so there must be something wrong.I quickly reached out and touched my head. My hand just touched the top of my own head, and it froze there, unable to move any more.On the top of my head, a large piece of hair has disappeared. The place where the hair has been cut off is almost the same as being shaved with a razor, and it feels extremely smooth. After a while, my hand moved slowly, and I realized that not one piece of my hair was cut off, but a strip two fingers wide, from the left ear to the right ear, and there was not a single hair left. I believe that my complexion must have been very ugly at that time. Although I didn't have a mirror in front of me, I saw Chief Feisha laughing so hard that he almost burst into tears. Only then did I know that Aibo's description of Yupuduo was absolutely no exaggeration.His waist knife is naturally extremely sharp, but he didn't hurt my scalp at all with such a quick knife, but just shaved off my hair, what kind of skill is this?As long as he uses a little more strength, one of my two ears will already fall to the ground, but he can calculate the strength exactly, what kind of supernatural power is this? Even if I had a pistol, when he unexpectedly slashed at me with a knife, it would be too late for me to draw it! After a while, I let my hand go. You Pudao said: I don't think you will compete with me anymore! As soon as he finished speaking, he turned and walked towards Patriarch Feisha.I waited for him to take two steps before calling out: Yupudo, please stop.You Pudu stood still, and I said slowly: You are too sure, I haven't answered your question yet. Uputo turned around quickly, and the Arab who was laughing loudly also opened his mouth wide and could not make a sound. Aibo grumbled: "Not brave at all, that's not brave at all." I ignored them and just said to You Pu: Just now, I saw the fastest sword technique in the world, but I am not going to give up the idea of ​​competing with you. As I said that, I walked towards him generously. I would never let him see the purpose of my approaching, so I put the scimitar in my hand behind my back, and kept talking, saying: I admire you very much. Fast, but not that I have been intimidated by you! I just finished this sentence, and the scimitar in my hand has already been shaken. Although the scimitar in my hand is Arabic, what I am using at this time is the repetition of the five Chinese sword techniques.The scimitar in my hand shook out in a circle, and the tip of the knife pointed directly at Uputo's chest.Before I understood what was going on, I had already retreated! This time, all the people in the temple did not laugh out loud, but Yupuduo was the only one who looked down and saw that the clothes on his chest had been shaved a hole because of my knife. But when the piece of round cloth fell under his feet, he laughed loudly: You can fight with me, yes, you can fight with me! Patriarch Feisha looked at me with an expression of almost disbelief, and spoke a few more words with Uputo. Aibo came to my side: Feisha was asking Yupuduo if he was sure of victory, Yupudo said no. I hurriedly said: Then, will they come up with another trick? Aibo said: Just rest assured, they are proud, but never mean.I said: That's fine.Aibo looked at me for a while, but didn't say anything. At that time, in the ancient city, there were already bursts of strange horn sounds, and the voices of noisy people could be faintly heard.Patriarch Feisha's complexion is by no means as proud as it was when Yupudo cut off my hair just now.He just turned his head and said to me coldly: The competition is about to begin.I strode out. As soon as I walked out of the temple, Yupudo rushed over and walked forward side by side with me.The two of us didn't speak, and he didn't even look at me, but walked forward with great seriousness. I glanced at him a few times, and the expression on my face became serious involuntarily. That's not only because I'm going to have a life-and-death struggle with Uputo, but also because no one I meet along the way, whether they are adults or children, looks at us solemnly! I am challenging the honor of their nation!When I think of this, I want to laugh but I can't laugh! We walked all the way to the stone platform and stood still, and the weird sound of the horn also stopped suddenly.At this time, people surrounded the open space. I believe that everyone in this family who can walk has already come out to watch the competition between me and Uputo. However, although there are many people, it is surprisingly quiet. At this time, it was the twilight of the sky, and the gray sky was shining on this strange and mysterious ancient city, a strong and proud nation, and I was facing a serious challenge.My state of mind is indescribable. Patriarch Feisha walked towards the two of us slowly, and he said to me first: You have the right to choose a good knife. I glanced at the scimitar in my hand: Thank you, I think this handle is very good. Patriarch Feisha said: Then, raise your weapons horizontally. I raised my scimitar flatly, Yupudo stood opposite me, and also raised his scimitar flatly, the tips of the two knives collided, and the tips of the two scimitars came together , making the two knives into a strange S shape. Patriarch Feisha stepped back, and I only thought that after he withdrew, he must order the competition to start, so I felt even more nervous.
