The Fragrant Wood Swordsman
pk 06 part 3

The nine children of Kong-thong-pai's students were furious that the good name of their teachers was blatantly denounced by this young man who was still snotting. But because they understood that fighting would be useless, they turned their bodies and left the place while helping their wounded comrades.

"Good..Good, Keng Hong! Thou hast slapped with words upon those who claim to be warriors, holy men, and clean men, hi-hi-hik!" Cui Im said excitedly while embracing the young man's shoulder with an alluring spoiled attitude.

"Enough, Holy! We continue the journey!" biauw Eng said, his voice cold and his attitude as if nothing had ever happened.

"The train was already destroyed by those demons, all the horses perished by Keng Hong. Well, we have to continue the journey on foot, but still very far!" said Cui Im with an irritated face. However, this girl laughed and looked at Keng Hong.

"Keng Hong, the journey is still a long way away and we have to walk. Using the science of running fast is not inferior to riding or riding, but it is very tiring. How about we carry each other? Alternately, right delicious? If sumoi wants to, let me surrender and you hold sumoi first..."

"Holy, quiet! This is no time to mess around!" snapped Biauw Eng with a cold and sniffy voice so that Cui Im no longer dared to open his mouth.

"The two of you don't have to bother because the trip with us just got here. I can't accompany you any longer" Keng Hong said in a calm voice. "It is enough that I bring trouble and danger to you, for I know that as long as the two ladies travel with me, certainly will face the danger of attack kang-ouw people who now seem to fight over me."

"Hhhh...!" Cui Im let out a disappointed voice and vanished the attitude of this sweet girl earlier, even his right hand moved to pull out his sword.

"Cia Keng Hong, you must come with us and face my mother, Lam-hai Sin-ni, whether or not, dead or alive!" Song-bun Siu-li Sie Biauw Eng's voice sounded resolute and contained a terrible threat.

Unlike Cui Im who had already pulled out his sword, this white-clothed girl was still standing quietly, yet to pull out a weapon, even her demeanor was still ordinary, only her two eyes were emitting a ray full of death threats.

Keng Hong shook his head. "It was indeed my intention to face Lam-hai Sin-ni and that intention was prompted by my gratitude towards Sie-siocia who had saved my life from the threat of Cui Im's sword. However, just now when the lady was ganged up, I had helped you and meant that I had also saved you, thus my debt was paid off. Therefore, I am now free and I no longer intend to go with Ji-wi to face Lam-hai-Sin-ni!"

After saying so, Keng Hong raised his hand to the front of his chest and saluted, then turned his body and stepped away leaving the two stunned girls full of disappointment.

These bitter experiences had made Keng Hong very cautious about facing Cui Im. Hearing the sound of the weapon attacking him, Keng Hong quickly tilted his body so that a red beam shot past beside his neck, then raised his flicked hand towards the sword and the hand holding the sword.

A powerful blow pushed Cui Im's sword and hand from below. The girl knew that she would put Keng Hong in her hands, quickly pulled his hand but still his hand was pushed to the side so hard that his body was pushed and almost he was slammed if not quickly jump away from Keng Hong to the left.

"You know, I don't want to be hostile to you, Cui Im," said Keng Hong. "Hope you guys like letting me go."

But with a red face from her anger, Cui Im was ready to lung again. Now his left hand pulled out a red handkerchief, a handkerchief containing poisonous powder and one that had knocked down Keng Hong.

While shouting out loudly Ang-chiam Tok-sian-li Bhe Cui Im charged forward again, his sword rotated into a ray of red sword rolling like a dancer of red silk shawl, then he lunged at Keng Hong with a continuous punch following the rotation of the sword.

Keng Hong was ready and alert because he knew that great danger was threatening him, not from the sword but especially from the red handkerchief. So he immediately avoided the sword by jumping quickly to the right.

Cui Im had expected this, even prepared. As soon as Keng Hong's body flashed to the right, his left hand immediately moved and three needles snatched from within his handkerchief towards Keng Hong's pair of eyes and throat.

The young man who was high-scientific but had not much experience in this match was startled, quickly lowering his body half-couched while flicking his left hand up so that the three needles were thrown out of nowhere. However, at the time that Cui Im deliberately created, red light from the handkerchief had already struck toward Keng Hong's face, preceded by reddish smoke from red poison powder.

Since becoming Sin-jiu Kiam-ong's student, Keng Hong has been given poison drinks little by little by Kiam-ong so that from his mouth to his stomach, Keng Hong knows all kinds of poisons, it has even become immune. However, he is not immune if faced with toxic air in the form of smoke or powder that is sucked through the nose and attacks the lungs.

His experience when he was knocked down by the red handkerchief poison made him become wary. Even though he had just escaped the death grip that the needles carried while the position of his body was half crouching so that it was difficult for him to dodge, he still remembered this danger.

So he had sucked in a deep breath and then closed his respiratory tract and as soon as the girl hit the handkerchief against his face, he blew towards the handkerchief with the exertion of lweekang. The handkerchief suddenly flipped towards Cui Im himself without being able to be prevented again by this girl who became shocked and screamed.
