77. On the road
Three days later, Chi Yi took the disciples of Yunxiao Palace on the road.
According to Chi Yi's character, of course, they did not choose to walk or ride horses, but went directly to the back mountain to ride the trap Suzaku.
This trip was to participate in the martial arts conference and fight in the ring, and Chi Yi didn't let too many disciples leave. Only Zhou Shenyingrong and the five elders were allowed to go with him, and Hei Bo was left in the valley. The people who collected the net had already set off one step in advance to prepare in the capital, and then selected three people with outstanding qualifications from a group of ordinary disciples to follow them to the capital chief to see them.
Coming to the door of the organ room, a group of people consciously divided into two groups and jumped on the Vermilion Bird Bird, Zhou Shen and Cui Lianyun sat in the driver's seat respectively, with Chi Yi's order, the two pushed down the handle of the Organ Bird, and in the roar of countless mechanisms, the two Vermilion Birds raised their heads together and spread their wings, slowly rising towards the air.
"Zhangjiao, since we have the Vermilion Bird to travel, we will definitely be able to rush to the capital soon. Why leave so early? Xia Lelan pulled Yingrong and lay on the root of the wings of the Vermilion Bird, looking at the Yin Yang Valley below that was getting smaller and smaller, and her expression was full of reluctance.
"The martial arts conference is a rare event on the rivers and lakes, all martial arts people will not miss it, as time goes by, the people in the capital will gather more and more. It's better to make some preparations as soon as possible if we are not familiar with the life in the capital, after all, this is a good opportunity for me to make a name for myself in the Sky Palace. ”
Chi Yi sat in front of the two, quietly looking at Zhou Shen in front of him, hearing Xia Lelan's question, he glanced back at her, and with a wave of the sleeves of his wide robe while explaining, a stack of medical books suddenly fell to the ground.
Xia Lelan's eyes lit up instantly.
Chi Yi looked at her bright eyes, and immediately smiled, "Don't worry, you don't have to worry about the medical books you haven't read, I have them all for you." ”
How can the head coach be so intimate!
Xia Lelan was so moved, she immediately let go of the hand that was holding Ying Rong and pounced on her medical book, picked up one happily, and thanked Chi Yi one after another.
"Seeing the color and forgetting the righteousness, ah no, seeing the book and forgetting the righteousness of Le Lan!"
Ying Rong saw that Xia Lelan ignored herself when she got the book, and suddenly leaned over and muttered to her with some unhappiness, "Didn't you say yesterday that you couldn't get too many medical books with too much luggage, so I went to the master to help bring it, but I didn't expect you to ignore me as a little conscienceless person who only cares about thanking the master and ignoring me, hum!" ”
The last hum word said not to be too tsundere.
"Ah, I know that Yingrong is the best." When Xia Lelan heard this, she immediately dropped the medical book, and went to coax Yingrong softly, and the two girls got tired of being together again.
Chi Yi watched this scene silently, and calmly opened his eyes. The friendship between girls, he has seen a lot in modern times, but even if he sees a lot, every time he sees two girls so tired of being crooked together, he still can't help but think crookedly.
Sure enough, the friendship between girls is different from that of boys.,It's a kind of otaku can't understand.。 After living for so many years, he still hasn't been in love, Chi Yi, thought so in his heart.
A group of people were making trouble inside, and the two Vermilion Bird birds flew higher and higher in the sky, gradually turning into a small dot and heading away in the direction of the capital.
At the same time, Xiao Buqing was also on the way to the capital with a group of disciples.
At this time, it was close to dusk, the town in front was gilded with a layer of golden brilliance under the reflection of the setting sun, Xiao Buqing took the reins in his hand and rode the horse forward unhurriedly, Xu Zheng staggered a distance from him, turned his head and chatted with him.
"If Senior Brother Boss wants to make a good ranking in this martial arts conference, we have to face a lot of opponents."
"Since the junior brother said this, he must have an understanding of our competitors?" After listening to his words, Xiao Buqing turned his head to look at him, the smile on his lips was warm and amiable, coupled with his delicate facial features and bookish air. Anyone who sees him will think that he should be a weak scholar sitting in the study and only reading the books of sages, and they can't imagine what he looks like when he holds a sword and kills.
It is precisely because of his high banner of eliminating demons and his appearance like a beautiful scholar that the rivers and lakes gave him such a nickname and called him "Haoran Sword".
Although Xiao Buqing himself doesn't like this title, he feels a strong sense of "gentleman's sword".
"The senior brother in charge is wise, the younger brother has been running outside these days, and he has heard a lot of gossip." Xu Zheng first praised Xiao Buqing as usual, and then replied, saying that his eyes were full of worry later.
"Not to mention the seven major sects, the newly rising sect forces in the rivers and lakes in recent years are also not to be underestimated, according to the observation of the younger brother, the strength of the Yunxiao Palace in Qizhou should be the strongest."
"I've also heard of the Cloud Palace, you can tell me in detail." Speaking of this, Xiao Buqing's expression also became cautious.
"The head of Yunxiao Palace is said to be called Dongjun Chi Yi, who is the most jealous and hateful, good at managing injustices and very good at medical skills, and has the ability to rejuvenate with wonderful hands, and the people of Qizhou regard him as a true immortal in the world. There are also two Dharma protectors and five elders under Chi Yi, the most famous are the left protector Star Soul and the Fire Minister Elder Si Ming, these two people are ruthless, and they once had a record of joining forces to slaughter the bandits of the four mountains in one day. Xu Zheng sorted out his thoughts, and then told Chi Yi the information he had inquired about.
"Dongjun, the Great Commander?" Xiao Buqing frowned and was silent, while thinking hard in his mind, he always felt that these nicknames were somewhat familiar.
"What about the other sects? Let's talk about it together. Unable to think of anything useful for a while, he gave up his efforts and continued to ask Xu Zheng.
"There's nothing else to say, but it is said that there seems to be something wrong with the most mysterious sword pavilion on the rivers and lakes, and there has been no heir in recent years, and I don't know if they will appear at this martial arts conference."
Xu Zheng and Xiao Buqing said as they walked, and Shen Xiuning on the side just smiled and watched the two talk, and did not interject much, looking at Xiao Buqing from time to time with tenderness in his eyes.
They rode on horseback, and although the horses they rode on were all good horses, they were still far from the birds that could fly in the sky. By the time they entered the first town in Xiazhou, everyone in Yunxiao Palace had been walking and playing in Xiazhou for many days.
Although the speed of the Suzaku is fast, it feels strangely cold when it is blown by the wind all the time in the air, and it is very tasteless for everyone to sit on the Suzaku every day. As soon as he entered the Xiazhou area, Chi Yi decided to put away the trap bird and everyone walked to the capital together.
Chi Yi's decision was supported by everyone present, not to mention several high-level officials of the Cloud Heaven Palace, even the eyes of the three disciples looking at him were shining.
After squeezing on the Vermilion Bird for five or six days in a row, they would have been bored to death, but Chi Yi didn't speak, and they didn't dare to say more. Besides, most of the people in Yunxiao Palace grew up in Qizhou since they were children, and they were full of curiosity about everyone in Xiazhou who had never been there.
In this way, Chi Yi accompanied a group of curious babies all the way to the mountains and rivers, obviously the distance that the Vermilion Bird could fly to in two days, they actually walked for more than half a month and did not arrive.
By the time everyone arrived at the foot of the Tin Mountain, it was the end of April. Bypassing Xishan, the front is where the capital is located.
At the end of April, the weather was getting hotter, and everyone came to the hinterland of the Central Plains from the north, and it was getting hotter and hotter along the way. Although people who practice martial arts are not afraid of cold and heat, looking at the light clothes of passers-by, everyone still consciously changed into summer clothes.
Chi Yi has already taken off his big coat, wearing only a light white robe, with a black wide edge on the white wide-sleeved collar and upper shirt, and complex black patterns painted on the placket and sleeves. Zhou Shen and Cui Lianyun were still dressed in energetic clothes, and the girls actively changed into all kinds of summer shirts, and decorated all kinds of beautiful and novel jewelry gadgets on their bodies.
Along the way, enjoy the different scenery of Xiazhou and Qizhou, or go shopping, eat delicious food, buy souvenirs, or visit scenic spots. Everyone had a lot of fun, and they almost forgot that they were here to participate in the martial arts conference.
On this day, everyone was sitting in the Xishan and brought some game, sitting around to eat barbecue, and the girls who were sitting on the side muttering suddenly stopped talking and looked into the distance together in surprise.
"Someone's coming."
Chi Yi also stood up and reminded the teenagers who were concentrating on barbecue, Cui Lianyun dropped the barbecue in his hand without saying a word, jumped onto the tall tree next to him, and raised his eyes to look over there.
"Another group of people is coming, as if they are chasing the man in front." Not long after, Cui Lianyun's voice came from the tree, and after listening to his words, everyone became interested for a while.
These days, we are just about playing, and we haven't fought with anyone yet, so it's rare to encounter something like this, and everyone feels itchy.
"Go see?" Ying Rong couldn't help but touch the long sword on his waist, and looked at Chi Yi's eyes full of eagerness.
"Let's go check it out." Chi Yi's skills are the most profound, everyone is still in a daze, he has vaguely heard the movement over there, looking at their eyes full of expectation, he can't help but have some curiosity in his heart, and immediately dodged towards the place where the sound came from.
Seeing his movements, everyone looked at each other and hurriedly followed.
As they approached, everyone gradually saw the situation ahead, but a group of people in strange clothes and costumes surrounded a thin young man, who was carrying a long package on his back, his face was pale and his body was shaky, and he seemed to be unable to do martial arts. Looking at the enemy who was getting closer and closer, the man's eyes gradually revealed a trace of despair.
