Chapter 251: The Original Promise

Outside the courtyard, Zhang Liang, who was wearing a green shirt, was concentrating on looking at a couplet at the gate and savoring it, only to see that on the left side it was written, 'Three years of waste, and a dream of yellow sorghum will eventually become empty', and on the right side was written 'Ten years of hard training, grinding the pestle into a needle and not regretting'.

"I don't want his revenge heart to be so firm, and if I think about it like this, it makes sense that his cultivation can improve by leaps and bounds in a short period of time. Looking at the vigorous and powerful couplet in front of him, Zhang Liang thought for a moment and muttered, his eyes couldn't help but show a hint of appreciation.

"This senior, our son-in-law invites you to come in, please come with me. Just when Zhang Liang's thoughts were still immersed in the couplet, a light call pulled him back to reality, which was when he found that the middle-aged man who had just gone in to report had come back at some point, and he also made a gesture to guide the way.

"Hmm. Zhang Liang nodded lightly, and then followed the middle-aged man.

Stepping into the courtyard, a stone road paved by bluestone comes into view, the green bamboos on both sides sway slightly with the breeze and the branches and leaves, and immediately a feeling of indescribable and unknown comes to mind, only to feel that there must be a mystery in the winding path and secluded place.

However, going further, Zhang Liang saw a martial arts training ground that was dozens of zhang wide, and to his surprise, the ground paved with bluestone slabs was actually a 'scarred' appearance, and a furrow about several zhang long could be seen everywhere covering the entire martial arts training ground.

"Huh?"

Seeing this scene, it was inevitably different from what he had thought before, but when he thought of the purpose of his visit this time, Zhang Liang's expectations for the young man he had not met had yet increased.

Under the eaves, a young man in a black suit looked at Zhang Liang who slowly stepped into the martial arts training ground with a smile on his face, and before the other party approached, he had already greeted him first, and his eyes flashed with joy, "Instructor Zhang, why are you here?"

"Drop by and come and see you. Zhang Liang smiled gently, and looked at the young man in front of him who had not met for a year, and wanted to know what was different between him now and before.

Although he knew that the cultivation of the young man in front of him had reached the realm of a martial artist, after all, hearing was false, and for the thing he was about to ask Tie Xuan to do, he had to see it with his own eyes to make him feel at ease.

He still remembered that the first time he saw the boy in front of him was at the annual selection competition of the Martial Arts Academy a year ago, when he was dressed in a black power suit, and his eyebrows revealed a kind of indifference that rejected people thousands of miles away. It's just that the cold face still exudes a sense of greenness, which makes people look at it deliberately pretending to be indifferent, rather than the real heart like ice.

And at this moment, the same black suit, the same face, but the original immaturity seems to have faded a lot with the growth of age, the perseverance between the eyebrows and the warm and confident smile give people a sense of sunshine and confidence, without the slightest artificiality, and it is generous.

"Yes, you have to stay for a few days, it's not easy to meet an acquaintance in this solid city. But although this is the border, there is no shortage of food, and I will call a few more people to pick up the wind and dust for you later, okay?" The young man was stunned at first when he heard this, and he didn't understand why the other party deliberately excused himself, but he still said with a happy face on his face.

Although he had already guessed the purpose of Zhang Liang's coming, it was better for the other party to say this kind of thing, and he couldn't let him say everything in a hurry, not to mention that he was not an active person in his bones.

And his joy is not completely pretended, old people, no matter what the purpose, for him in a foreign place, a sense of intimacy from his hometown has arisen.

"Hehe, you don't have to be so troublesome, Tie Xuan. Seeing that the other party hesitated at first and then took over his words, Zhang Liang couldn't help but show a trace of embarrassment and excused himself.

It was only at this time that he was willing to believe that the young man in front of him had indeed shed his youth and began to slowly mature, not for anything else, just because this seemingly hypocritical politeness was not something that a fledgling teenager could learn, and he had to go through something to learn it.

Zhang Liang still remembers very well that when he first heard the name Tie Xuan, it was from the mouth of Tie Xiaosan, a subordinate of Tie Zheng, a close friend of Tiejia Village. Although his old friend has passed away, he is still willing to help by saying hello to the school and keeping his student status, after all, he is not a person who does not miss his old love, and then he slowly forgot about this little thing, until the arrival of the last moment of the selection competition Tiexuan and the blockbuster battle.

Later, he knew that the hall master had chosen Tie Xuan, and hoped that this young man could help him in the future. But this is just a seed sown by the hall master at will, the hall master has sown a lot of seeds in recent years, Zhang Liang has seen a lot, although Tie Xuan is in it, but it is not the most dazzling one.

Even if Tie Xuan won the first place in the Martial Arts Academy's rookie competition later, he only thought that Tie Xuan was full of potential, after all, there were too many geniuses who had not grown up, and if he fell halfway, no matter how talented he was, no matter how talented he was.

As if to confirm his conjecture, half a year later, Tie Xuan really provoked the Black Tiger Gang, the most powerful gang in Moon River City, to take action. Just when he thought that Tie Xuan was dead, Wen Ting, the senior sister of the Crescent Moon Sect, actually made a move, and then he and the hall master learned about Tie Xuan's life experience from Tianji Pavilion, it turned out that he was actually one of the four fairies of the Crescent Moon Sect, the orphan of Li Yunmeng, who had been missing for many years.

However, even though Wen Ting saved Tie Xuan on the spot, if he wanted to rely on the Crescent Moon Sect to save people, he didn't think that Wen Ting could make such a decision on behalf of the Crescent Moon Sect. It's just that what happened later was unexpected by everyone, and I don't know who secretly helped, the Black Tiger Gang actually compromised, so that Tie Xuan followed the Black Armor Guards to escort the prisoners to the border Gucheng with a free body. However, everyone knows that the Black Tiger Gang will never give up so well, and Tie Xuan will inevitably be robbed and killed on the way to Gucheng.

It turned out that the Black Tiger Gang did not let go of the enemy and sent an elite robbery team, but Tie Xuan unexpectedly escaped again, and this time the person who saved him was a big man who saw the head of the dragon and did not see the end. Who it is, no one knows, the news of Tianji Pavilion has always been very expensive, and no one will spend a lot of money to understand this. No one knows why Tie Xuan can have such a person to escort him, but it is certain that this person is definitely not easy to deal with, after all, in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, he is the first warrior who can make the Black Tiger Gang, which is almost a third-rate force, one after another.

No matter what, Tie Xuan is only a warrior cultivator, for the hall master and Zhang Liang, no matter how legendary his experience is, he is not qualified to participate in that matter, maybe Tie Xuan can grow into a famous figure in ten years, but Zhang Liang knows that the hall master can not wait for ten years.

However, the world is unpredictable, just when he and the hall master were about to give up the seed of Tie Xuan, there was news from the Tianji Pavilion that Tie Xuan had joined the warrior battalion of Gucheng to carry out special tasks and was promoted to a martial artist, and his strength was not bad.

Why Tie Xuan's cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds in a short period of time, Tianji Pavilion did not say, and the hall master did not spend a lot of money to figure it out. For the hall master, he didn't care how Tie Xuan's cultivation came about, what he cared about was that the current Tie Xuan was already qualified to be his helper.

The hall master's thoughts, Zhang Liang's conscience was very clear, so he came, and he came to the door in person to show his sincerity.

"How can it be troublesome, it's rare for you to come here, I, as the host, naturally want to entertain you well. Tie Xuan smiled enthusiastically.

The young man is Tie Xuan, and it has been half a year since he went out on a mission for the first time at this time, and half a year is not a very long time for either a martial artist or an ordinary person. But for him, the experience of this half year is precious, a transformation from youth to maturity.

In the past six months, due to the great Liao's imminent move, the border was uneven, and almost every time of the six missions carried out by Tie Xuan would collide with the Liao spies head-on or side-to-side. And in this case, there is nothing to say on both sides, and fighting is the best respect for each other.

After bloody battles again and again, Tie Xuan's cultivation not only grew rapidly, but also his mind was also greatly sharpened. From the beginning of the unbearable, to the face-to-face, and finally the indifference to ignore blood and life.

Tie Xuan found that he seemed to be born to fight to the death, and every time he fought an enemy, his blood was always full of joy. Even though he doesn't admit that he is a bloodless person in his bones, the thunder stone that teamed up with him has discovered this, and his rapid progress has put him under pressure.

At this moment, Tie Xuan didn't know whether it was right or wrong to come to Gucheng, but everything couldn't go back to the past. It's just that no matter how his personality changes, his purpose is always the same, and he has never wavered in this.

He already knew about the power of the Black Tiger Gang when he was in Yuehe City, and he knew very well that if he wanted to seek revenge from Tie Fan, the Black Tiger Gang was a threshold that could not be bypassed, so he firmly believed that everything he did was to avenge his grandmother and accumulate strength.

Everything that has been done for revenge has been worth it.

Seeing that Tie Xuan never mentioned that incident, Zhang Liang couldn't help but smile bitterly, he understood that he had just lifted a stone and hit his own feet, but he was very human, his face was solemn, and he said solemnly, "Okay, Tie Xuan, I won't go around the bend with you, in fact, I came specifically to find you this time." ”

"Specifically coming to me?" Tie Xuan pretended to be puzzled, but in fact, he already knew in his heart that the other party was going to have a showdown.

"Yes, I was entrusted to ask you a word, do you remember the agreement that I promised at the Martial Arts Hall in Qianshan Town?" Zhang Liang asked with a solemn face with expectation in his eyes.

"Yes. Without the slightest hesitation, Tie Xuan's eyes were clear and sonorous.

Hearing this, Zhang Liang was stunned at first, and then a smile slowly appeared at the corner of his mouth.
