The Legend of the Condor Heroes: I became one of the Five Great Masters by drawing cards

Chapter 198 A series of incidents
The two of them only exchanged one move, but the momentum was quite strong. Duan Zhengchun and the other man were fighting fiercely, and at this moment they both stopped and watched.

When the four guards saw the emperor being attacked, they suddenly changed color and immediately rushed forward to attack.

Duan Zhengming's face darkened slightly. He raised his hand to stop a few people and clasped his hands in a bow.

"Senior, your staff technique seems to have a lot of connections with my family's martial arts. I don't know your name, but I hope you can show me."

In fact, the age difference between the two is not that big, but Duan Yanqing suffered a lot more than ten years ago, so he looks much older than him.

Duan Zhengming is in his forties, and judging from his appearance, it doesn't seem strange to call him "senior".

"You are Duan Zhengming, the current Emperor Baoding of Dali Kingdom, right?"

Duan Yanqing did not move his lips at all, but spoke in ventriloquism. Everyone was unaware of the secret and looked around in confusion, thinking that there was someone else there.

Duan Zhengming recognized the voice coming from him and nodded slightly: "Senior, your guess is correct."

"Comparing your martial arts skills with mine, who is better?"

"You may be slightly better at martial arts, but if we really fight, I can defeat you."

"Yes, I suffered the loss of my physical condition after all. Alas, I never thought that you would take this position and never give up your training all these years."

Duan Yanqing's abdomen rose and fell slightly. Although the sound transmitted by ventriloquism was a bit strange, the tone could still be heard.

Duan Zhengming sensed the regret and resentment in his words, and heard the hidden meaning in his words, and for a moment he became even more suspicious of his identity.

"Senior, who are you, please tell me clearly."

"You really don't know who I am?" There was a hint of sneer in his words.

Duan Zhengming had some guesses in his mind when he heard this question, but he just couldn't believe it, so he frowned and shook his head.

"it is good!"

Duan Yanqing poked the ground with the steel staff in his right hand. Although he didn't seem to use much force, the tip of the staff easily shattered the bricks and penetrated several inches into the ground.

Before everyone could be surprised, they saw him rush forward again, and pointed his right index finger at Duan Zhengming with a sneer.

Duan Zhengming looked solemn and raised his finger to meet the attack.

The middle finger pokes straight, the ring finger sweeps horizontally, the little finger lifts lightly, and the thumb presses hard.

In five consecutive moves, all five fingers were used. The moves of the two were different. The wind from their fingers was rustling and the energy was compelling.

At this time, the One Yang Finger technique was still a secret of the Dali Duan family, and those who could master it must be the direct descendants of the Duan family.

This fierce fight was almost evenly matched. Duan Zheng knew that he was extremely powerful and had planned for a long battle.

But when the fight was getting intense, Duan Yanqing suddenly made two "hehe" sounds, retracted his fingers and withdrew his attack, and stood still, neither dodging nor parrying.

In this life-and-death fight, Duan Zhengming did not dare to hold back at all. He pointed his finger straight at the Qi Tu acupoint under his throat. If it hit the acupoint, he would be killed on the spot.

But he suddenly stopped, without dodging or evading. Duan Zhengming had vaguely guessed his identity and naturally refused to kill him.

"Why are you willing to die?"

"It would be best if I died at your hands. Your sins have only deepened."

Duan Yanqing's face showed no emotion, but his ventriloquism was full of laughter and a hint of mockery.

"At this point, don't you know who I am?"

As the ruler of Dali, you should be serious about your words and actions. How can you make blind inferences without any evidence?"

"Hehe, you claim to be the emperor of Dali, but I only think you are a traitor who is plotting to usurp the throne."

"How dare you insult the emperor! You are so bold!" Gao Shengtai loved Emperor Baoding very much and became furious when he heard this.

"You are Gao Zhisheng's son, right? Fine, I'll tell you in person who I really am!"

Duan Yanqing glanced at him, his voice growing even colder. "I am Duan Yanqing, son of Emperor Shangde. The foundation of the Dali Kingdom was usurped by you!"

In fact, the regicide and seizure of the throne had nothing to do with Duan Zhengming and others. The culprit was the treacherous minister Yang Yizhen.

Duan Zhengming's cousin, Emperor Shangming Duan Shouhui, received help from the senior monks in Tianlong Temple and defeated Yang Yizhen and regained the throne.

When Duan Yanqing returned to Dali, Duan Shouhui had already become a monk at Tianlong Temple and passed the throne to Duan Zhengming.

He had hoped to ask his uncle, Master Kurong of Tianlong Temple, for help to prove his identity and uphold justice for him, but Master Kurong was in seclusion practicing Zen and he couldn't even see him.

As to whether this retreat was real or just an excuse, it is unknown.

Prince Yanqing "came back to life", and all the people of Dali present were shocked.

Although Duan Zhengming had some guesses, he was stunned for a moment when he heard what he said in person.

At this moment, the door of another room was kicked open. A man holding two knives and laughing sinisterly walked out, holding Mu Wanqing and Zhong Ling hostage.

The person was wearing a light blue long gown. She was a middle-aged woman in her forties. She was Ye Erniang, the "evil-doer" among the four evil men.

In terms of appearance, Ye Erniang was not ugly, but she was injured by Xiao Yuanshan that year, and there were three bright red bloodstains on each cheek, running from the bottom of her eyes to her lower cheek. Now that she was smiling, she looked hideous and terrifying.

Mu Wanqing and Zhong Ling looked terrified, but they could not move or make a sound. It was obvious that their acupoints had been sealed.

"Wan'er!"

"Ling'er!"

Qin Hongmian and Gan Baobao were obviously not aware of this beforehand. When they saw their beloved daughter being captured, they were horrified and their souls flew away.

Before they could rush to rescue them, Zhong Wanchou moved and stood in front of the two of them.

"Zhong Wanchou! You..."

Gan Baobao never thought that when her daughter was held hostage, her husband not only did not rescue her, but instead helped the criminals stop her.

"Abao, don't be angry, I have my reasons."

The matter of Prince Yanqing had not yet been clarified, and Ye Erniang appeared again with the Valley Master's daughter captured, causing a quarrel between the Valley Master and his wife. It looked like an internal conflict had broken out.

Everyone was bewildered and confused, but Duan Yanqing suddenly burst into laughter, attracting everyone's attention again.

At this moment, another person suddenly appeared from behind Ye Erniang and the other two, bounced on the ground like a ball, and flew towards Duan Yu.

Apart from the dead rapist Yun Zhonghe, two of the four evil men have appeared, and this person is naturally the remaining South China Sea Crocodile God Yue Lao San.

Yue Laosan was really ugly, with a huge head and a tuft of beard under his chin that stood upright like a steel brush.

A pair of green eyes sparkled brightly, his nose was facing upwards with no visible bridge, he had a wide mouth, and his teeth were white, pointed and sharp.

In less than a cup of tea, several unexpected events happened one after another, and everyone was stunned for a while. Yue Lao San was not far away from Duan Yu, and he jumped and leaped, and was in front of him in the blink of an eye.

Although Duan Yu wanted to learn martial arts, he had not had the time to start and was still powerless.

A large hand like a chicken claw suddenly came down, grabbing him by the back of the collar, while the other hand was already strangling his throat.

It turns out that this was Duan Yanqing's plan. Although many plots did not appear due to the appearance of Gu Ping'an, his target was still Duan Yu.

Seeing that his plan had succeeded, Duan Yanqing's strange laughter finally stopped.

"That's right, Yue Lao San, I'll credit you for your contribution today."

　　Note: In historical fact, Gao Shengtai ascended the throne to the throne of Dali upon the abdication of Duan Zhengming (some say he informed his father and son of the dethronement). However, on his deathbed, he instructed his son to return the throne to the Duan family and establish Duan Zhengchun as the 15th King of Dali. This follows the setting of Jin Yong's novel; the novel's description is inconsistent with historical facts.
