Chapter 24: The Duel I
"Because someone in the Zhang family wants you to die. Tang Shiyue said.
Yang Zhen was stunned, he didn't know anything about the situation in the cultivation realm, he didn't know what this "Zhang family" represented, and he didn't know why they hated him so much.
Tang Shiyue glanced at Yang Zhen coldly, reading the confusion in the other party's eyes, but her expression was pale and expressionless on her face, as if everything had fallen silent. Time paused for a moment, and Tang Shiyue spoke again:
"Maybe it's because of your relationship with Su Ziqing~ I don't know much about the specifics. ”
Yang Zhen's face sank, the three words "Su Ziqing" reminded him of a lot of unpleasant memories, at that time he didn't understand the truth of this world, he was still a dirty teenager, he felt that a generation of soldiers was very popular, and when he saw Su Ziqing, he secretly weaved the future with that girl in his heart, and was ready to retire early to live the life of a beautiful woman in Xiangche......
always wanted to find a place to bury that story, because it was very embarrassing, but the female ghost Tang Shiyue mentioned this name again - this name that is too black from head to toe from the inside out.
"I have nothing to do with her. Yang Zhen said coldly.
"Really?" Tang Shiyue smiled, "But some people don't see it that way." ”
Yang Zhen was speechless, this hatred was really inexplicable. Okay~ Although the king of soldiers has never needed logic to pull hatred so far, is this also too hard?
"It's just a deal," Tang Shiyue said, "I'll kill you, and he'll help me return to the Ghost Domain." ”
Yang Zhen was stunned again. Yu Meng once told him that the ghost domain is an extension of the real world, and it is the "ghost" - that is, the gathering place of the undead, it stands to reason that all ghosts should be able to enter and exit the ghost domain freely, why can't this female ghost who occupies Tang Shiyue's body go back by herself?
What surprised Yang Zhen even more was the word "transaction".
Although he was just a newcomer to the cultivation realm, but at that time in the abandoned park, Shu Xiaoman once told him in person - cultivators, it is a duty to kill demons and demons - this is why Shu Xiaoman rushed out in a hurry as soon as he saw the female ghost, although he was a little reckless, but it was not a conditioned reflex.
How can a cultivator make a deal with ghosts?
He was about to continue asking, but suddenly found that Tang Shiyue's expression was strange, her eyes were empty, and her face, which was already as white as paper, became even paler, and then the entire skin and flesh were rapidly shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Extinguish!
Yang Zhenxin's head sank suddenly, and a figure slowly walked out of the shadows in the distance.
He had the same tough and resolute face as Schwarzenegger, but his whole body was covered in a layer of shadows, cold and eerie, like an evil demon from the Nine Hells.
"You ......" Yang Zhen noticed the other party's school uniform.
"Zhang Jiahao. ”
Zhang Jiahao...... Zhang's family?
"You're the one who wants my life?"
"The response was quick. Zhang Jiahao smiled, his eyes were quite approving, "I finally understand what Sunan likes about you now." Although Xu Ye is an outlaw who was expelled by the Ghost Emperor, he was once a deacon of the Ghost Clan, and you are indeed great to be able to defeat her. ”
Xu Ye?
Yang Zhen followed the other party's gaze and looked at the ground, Tang Shiyue, who was there, was only a pile of dry bones left, and the beauty that was once so beautiful that all beings turned upside down can only be disgusted and frightened now, the so-called pink skeleton is nothing more than that.
Yang Zhen silently retracted his gaze, now that he knew the real name of this female ghost, and also knew why she couldn't return to the ghost domain, but more questions were still in his heart.
"You want to kill me because of Su Ziqing?" he asked.
"Not bad. ”
Zhang Jiahao said as he casually took a step forward.
He only took one step.
But this step turned out to step into a deep footprint on the ground!
Yang Zhen's pupils narrowed, and it was not difficult to crush the ground with one foot, but it was difficult to leave a complete footprint without damaging other rock masses.
This Zhang Jiahao's cultivation is definitely not low.
There were mixed footsteps in the distance, walking far and near, obviously someone was coming, but neither Zhang Jiahao nor Yang Zhen looked in that direction.
"I have nothing to do with her. Yang Zhen said, his eyes always stayed on that footprint.
"It's not up to you to decide whether it has anything to do with it," Zhang Jiahao continued to walk towards Yang Zhen, leaving behind a series of deep footprints, each of which was 3 inches deep, complete and exquisite, without a trace of twist or wrinkle in the seams with the ground, as if he was born there.
Yang Zhen asked himself if he couldn't do this.
But Zhang Jiahao stepped on it lightly, as if he was doing an ordinary move, which only proves one thing: the step just now was not a deliberate show, but a random one.
This Zhang Jiahao's cultivation is not only not low, but also far surpasses Yang Zhen.
"Yang Zhen ~ I found ......"
A crisp call came from the side, it was Shu Xiaoman, but she lost her voice after saying a few words, obviously she had seen the situation in the field.
Shu Xiaoman looked at the footprints left behind Zhang Jiahao steadily, creepy, and couldn't help but shudder.
Zhang Jiahao ignored her, as if when she didn't exist at all, his eyes were always locked on Yang Zhen:
"Believe me, I also hope that you have nothing to do with her, but what can be done? Who told that old guy in Sunan to be so optimistic about you, you have to marry your daughter?"
"So," Yang Zhen raised his head from the footprints and met the other party's eyes, his voice was small, "This means that the husband is not guilty and guilty?"
He is also very helpless in this identity, and it sounds very funny - the fiancé of "the first beauty in school", in addition to the humiliation of his fiancée, he is an inexplicable enemy.
"So to speak. Zhang Jiahao generously admitted, as if he didn't hear the irony in this sentence at all.
"Why? is it because of Su Ziqing?"
"Yes. ”
"But she doesn't like me, and I don't like her. ”
"It doesn't matter. Zhang Jiahao shrugged regretfully, "As long as Sunan recognizes that you are her fiancé, you will have to die." ”
The shocking news shocked Shu Xiaoman, of course she knew that Su Ziqing, the beautiful woman attached to Xingong was like a cloud, and the soft girl was like rain, and she could win the crown of "Miss Affiliate" for two consecutive years in this kind of strong fight, how could she not know Su Ziqing's name?
It turns out that Yang is really her fiancé?!
Shu Xiaoman stood in the distance blankly, unable to believe his ears.
"Do you like her?" asked Yang Zhen.
"That's right. Zhang Jiahao said, "Why don't I like her? She is the eldest daughter of the Su family of the four major families of Xiuzhen, and she is beautiful, and the boys in the school who take her as the lover of their dreams can line up from the school gate all the way to the Yujing Scenic Area! Why can't I like her? I tell you, I not only like her, but also like her since childhood, from elementary school to now, for ten years~! As long as she wants it, I will definitely help her do it, as long as she wants it, I will definitely help her get it! I love her more than life! So I will never allow anyone to stand in our way! Anyone!"
Zhang Jiahao gritted his teeth, his voice was hoarse, and his face was distorted. He kept waving his fists and approaching Yang Zhen, as if he wanted to eat this guy who stood in the pit and didn't alive.
Shu Xiaoman subconsciously wanted to rush over, an invisible force stopped her, she couldn't move half a minute at all - not only could she not move half a minute, she couldn't even speak, her fear was even deeper, she felt that this force was domineering and ferocious, it was not something she could fight against at all, and it came from Zhang Jiahao!
This shows one thing: Zhang Jiahao's cultivation is at least above the double level of qi refining!
Don't underestimate this realm that is only one layer, in the world of cultivation, one realm and one heaven, the gap between each realm is extremely large, and the three cultivators of "refining qi and one heavy" may not be the opponent of a "refining qi two" cultivators. And between each rank is the difference between quantitative and qualitative changes, this is like in the "forging body" stage, except for physical changes, you can't cultivate any skills, and once you advance to "refining qi", then you can get all kinds of skill bonuses.
Let's be more specific: it can be said that ten monks with "ten layers of body forging" can't beat one monk who "refines qi with one weight". But now that both of them are "refining qi for the first time", how to confront Zhang Jiahao, who is "refining gas for the second time"?
"Be careful~!" Shu Xiaoman could only shout at Yang Zhen in his heart.
Yang Zhen's expression was calm, he looked at the approaching killing god, and stared intently, for a long time, a trace of pity suddenly appeared in his eyes:
"Can that reason be used to convince yourself?"
The question seemed to touch some taboo, and the figure that had been approaching him suddenly stopped.
In the air, there was a dead silence for a moment, and the long silence froze time, and there was not even a trace of wind in front of the ancient mansion on the top of Qishan Mountain.
The three of them were all frozen there, Zhang Jiahao lowered his head and couldn't see his expression clearly, Shu Xiaoman's gaze kept wandering between the two, and Yang Zhen was looking at Zhang Jiahao, the figure wrapped in shadows, standing in the moonlight, looking so lonely, like some far-reaching sculpture.
"You don't understand," Zhang Jiahao said softly, "I have to like Su Ziqing." ”
Yang Zhen didn't speak, and the pity in his eyes was deeper.
"Because I must marry her, whether I like her or not. ”
He suddenly smiled, laughing so sadly, his eyes full of cold sarcasm.
"It's ridiculous, isn't it? It seems to be fate, whether you want it or not, you can't get around that result, you can't avoid it, you can't escape, it's useless to resist. So, so~ If I don't like her, then wouldn't it be too pitiful for me?ha~hahaha...... Woo~Woo~~"
He laughed and leaned back and forth, and then began to cry again, like a madman.
"Why?" Yang Zhen asked softly.
Zhang Jiahao gradually calmed down: "You don't need to know, it's useless to know." ”
He slowly drew his weapon.
It was a giant sword, with a broad blade without a blade, and it was as tall as a man, and one could not help but suspect that this weapon was not used to cut people, but to smash people.
"You just need to know that you have to die today. ”
