Chapter 69: The Challenge
"Zhou Shaoxia, save me, I didn't do anything wrong, I don't want to die!"
Zhu Youzhen threw herself on the ground and shouted. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"This ......"
Zhou Chen stopped, looked at Zhu Youzhen, who was crying and begging on the ground, and then said to Di Jingyun: "This Miss Zhu is still young, she shouldn't be able to do anything evil, why don't you let her go?"
Di Jingyun frowned, stared at Zhou Chen's face for a moment, and then said, "Yes." ”
"Thank you Zhou Shaoxia! Thank you Zhou Shaoxia!"
Zhu Youzhen showed a look of surprise, then got up from the ground, wiped her face with her cuffs, and approached Zhou Chen's side, she obviously wanted to follow Zhou Chen away.
"Shaoxia, no, Daxia! Zhou Daxia, you can do well, take me with you!"
Zhu Biqing saw that Zhou Chen had saved Zhu Youzhen, and she hurriedly bent her legs and knelt on the ground.
He has also practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he can clearly know the power of the innate master. Even Zhu Yuanqing is not Di Jingyun's opponent at all, and he, Zhu Biqing, is even more powerless to fight back.
The few family members he brought just now were just to strengthen their courage, and also to prevent these people from taking advantage of the chaos to abandon the Lord and escape, and they didn't think they would be able to fight against Di Jingyun.
In fact, at this moment, these family members were already sweating profusely and trembling with their legs.
They were in the backyard just now, so they didn't know that the assassin had come in, so they followed Zhu Biqing.
If they had known that there was a bad star that the second owner couldn't beat, they would have slipped away as soon as possible.
But now it's too late to say anything, and they have to wait for the next development.
"I'm sorry, I won't save you like a whore, I'll kill you on any other occasion. ”
Zhou Chen glanced at Zhu Biqing on the ground expressionlessly, and after saying a word, he didn't want to stay any longer, nodded slightly at Di Jingyun, and left with a few people.
Among them, Zhu Youzhen was even more nervous to keep up, for fear that if she took a slow step, her life would be guaranteed. She could only think of saving her life at the moment, but Zhu Yuanqing and Zhu Biqing didn't care at all, and she didn't even look at them again.
"Zhou Daxia, you can't go! Please take me, I'll kowtow to you!"
When Zhu Biqing saw Zhou Chen and the others leaving, he immediately collapsed, tears and snot flowed out, and at the same time, he really kowtowed to Zhou Chen's back.
It's just that he didn't get a response, and Zhou Chen went farther and farther away, ignoring him at all.
"Get up! What do you look like now! As a descendant of the Zhu family, if you want to die, you must die decimorely!"
Zhu Yuanqing still looks weak, seeing Zhu Biqing's embarrassed appearance of kneeling and kowtowing, he is full of anger, if it weren't for this little beast who robbed the people's daughter, how could there be a situation where he was killed today?
And compared to Zhu Biqing, what he hates more is Zhou Chen.
If he hadn't listened to Zhou Chen's nonsense and handed over the woman, he could have used her as a hostage now to force back Na Di Jingyun. In this way, Zhujiazhuang can also be saved, and his life will not be in danger.
It's just that it's too late to say anything. Today, he is a mortal situation, and the entire Zhujiazhuang will be slaughtered.
"It's a pity that this person happened to pick a big brother when he was not there, otherwise with the eldest brother's martial arts, how could I be afraid of him in Zhujiazhuang!"
Zhu Yuanqing gritted his teeth, staring at Di Jingyun with his eyes, eager to bite him to death in one bite.
"Don't look at me like that, I am stronger than you when it comes to hatred!
Di Jingyun waited until he could no longer see Zhou Chen's shadow in his field of vision, and then he really put his mind at ease.
Although he was very confident in his own force, he still had to carry a Wan'er on his back and protect her from being hurt at all times, which made him not dare to be too impulsive, so he waited for Zhou Chen and a few people to leave before he could do it with confidence.
"Suffer death!"
Di Jingyun waved his long sword, and as soon as his footsteps moved, he took the lead in killing Zhu Yuanqing.
......
A month later, Zhou Chen and his entourage of more than 20 people and several carriages came to the territory of Sword Casting Villa.
Ranked among the three villages and six valleys, the Sword Forge Villa is one of the top forces in the rivers and lakes.
As the name suggests, this force is best at crafting blades, and there is also a habit that every time a divine weapon is cast, a sword appreciation tournament will be held.
Why is it said that it is a reward for "swords", rather than swords, guns and clubs, it is naturally because the Sword Casting Villa is mainly based on sword casting, and there are relatively few other types of weapons.
Although it is ostensibly a sword appreciation competition, it is actually a sword competition.
The Sword Forge Villa will set up a ring for the people who come to participate in the conference to compete on the stage, and the final winner will be qualified to get the divine weapon.
said the word "qualification", it was because the Sword Casting Villa would not be so generous and send the divine soldiers for nothing, but would exchange them for martial arts cheats.
If the final winner of the ring can't get the cheats of the corresponding value, then it will be regarded as giving up the qualification to get the divine soldier, and the sword appreciation meeting will become an auction, and everyone will bid on the spot, and the one with the highest value can be exchanged for the divine weapon with various money and treasure cheats.
There is another theory about the sword appreciation conference.
It is said that hundreds of years ago, Sword Forge Villa was just an ordinary and inconspicuous small force.
At that time, the owner of the village was a genius, and his sword-forging skills were unparalleled in all generations.
He only uses the best materials to cast weapons, so he doesn't shoot many times, but every weapon from his hands will cause bloody rain on the rivers and lakes.
This made him see the benefits, so he proposed the "Sword Appreciation Conference" for the first time, trying to exchange swords for divine skills.
Through one competition after another, the final winner was the strongest sword master at that time, who loved the sword of the divine soldier very much, and did not hesitate to take out a first-class swordsmanship and exchange it for the sword.
This first sword appreciation conference was successfully completed, and the owner at that time also tasted the sweetness and obtained a first-class martial arts.
After that, the Sword Casting Villa was out of control, and every time after hitting a god-level weapon, it would be used to hold a sword appreciation conference, and then exchanged for martial arts cheats.
Gradually, the people of Sword Forge Villa no longer only forged swords, and their martial arts level also rose rapidly.
More than two hundred years have passed, and the owner of that generation has played a divine sword that is known as the strongest divine sword, which is now ranked third next to the divine weapon, the Ascending Dragon Cloud Slashing Knife.
With this divine sword, the Sword Casting Villa was exchanged for an extremely powerful innate divine skill, called "Qiankun Star Turning Technique". This is ranked eighth on the list of today's Divine Skill Secret Classics, and it is a divine skill that can make all people in the martial arts go crazy.
Since then, the owners of each generation must have cultivated the "Qiankun Star Turning Technique", and after practicing personal force, they are no longer afraid of the heads of any top sects.
The Sword Forge Villa has risen completely.
The statement about the rise process is all circulated in the rivers and lakes, and the people of Sword Casting Villa have never admitted it, but they have not denied it either.
In fact, anyone who is not a fool can understand that there is not much fake in this, at least the "Qiankun Star Turning Technique" must have been exchanged for divine soldiers, otherwise the origin will be even more unclear.
For Zhou Chen, he will not be interested in the secret books of divine skills, except for "Yi Jin Washing Pulp Gong", which can exercise his physique.
As for the divine weapons and the like, Zhou Chen tried his best to fight for them.
With the example of the Heavenly Stone Treasure Knife, Zhou Chen would not let go of any treasure that might have special energy and could charge the mysterious key.
There is another point, that is, his strongest offensive hole card now is the means of detonating weapons by relying on the "Yin and Yang Sacrifice Treasure Formula".
There is a big difference in the amount of internal force that various materials can carry, if he can get another divine weapon like the Tianshi Treasure Knife, Zhou Chen has enough time and preparation, and after inputting a large amount of internal force into it, it can completely kill a large number of innate masters when it is detonated.
With this hole card, Zhou Chen can really not be afraid of anyone.
"But with my current strength, I'm afraid I can't beat others in the ring. ”
Zhou Chen has already learned the rules of the stage competition, that is, it is not allowed to use hidden weapons.
In this way, Zhou Chen's biggest attack method cannot be used, he is a person who has not yet reached the innate level, and he doesn't want to compete with others for anything at all.
Zhou Chen was very wise to give up, this time he should come to see and understand, and by the way, he also joined Shen Feng.
It's just that the next sentence that Shen Junlian mentioned made him look forward to it again.
It turned out that in the recent sword appreciation conferences, in addition to a divine weapon being taken out and allowing many confident masters to come out to compete, there will also be another ring so that the younger generation of martial arts rookies can also participate.
And this is a ring specially prepared for rookies, and the winner will be rewarded with a high-quality weapon.
Reward! Zhou Chen noticed Shen Junlian's words.
If it is said to be a reward, it is given away for free, and there is no need to take out anything in exchange.
Zhou Chen didn't expect that the consciousness of Sword Casting Villa was so high, and he was willing to give weapons for nothing, which was simply benefiting the entire martial arts.
But after thinking about it, he immediately understood.
Sword Casting Villa's move is also meaningful, every time they hold a sword appreciation conference, they can almost get a new martial art, at least first-class grade.
In the past few hundred years, they have held dozens of conferences, and they have collected a lot of various martial arts, only in terms of first-class martial arts, they can almost be compared with the Shaolin School's Tibetan Scripture Pavilion.
This has also aroused the vigilance and exclusion of other forces, in order not to become the target of public criticism, Sword Casting Villa needs to "scatter wealth to avoid disasters". The way is to set up another ring and give away weapons for free.
"Only under the age of twenty can you go into the ring? ”
Zhou Chen had some expectations.
But there were still a few days before the convention began, so he had to wait in the city.
The group of them is now in a city called the "Iron City".
The Iron City is similar in nature to the Hengshan Sect's Hengcheng City, and it is one of the most prosperous towns owned by the Sword Forge Villa.
A few miles north of Tiecheng is Tiejian Mountain.
It is said that on Iron Sword Mountain, there used to be an Iron Sword Gate, which was later destroyed by the Sword Casting Villa, and the Iron Sword Mountain moved its base camp to this mountain because of the excellent terrain.
The sword appreciation meeting is to be held in a venue established on one of the peaks of Tiejian Mountain.
"This iron city is much more magnificent than that Heng City, at least two levels worse, it should be the relationship between the Sword Casting Villa and the wealth. ”
At this time, Zhou Chen and Shen Junlian were sitting by the window on the upper floor of a restaurant, looking at the scene outside the window, while eating a few exquisite side dishes and drinking tea.
The two drank tea because Shen Junlian's body was weak and he couldn't drink alcohol, while Zhou Chen didn't care about drinking and tea.
Strictly speaking, he prefers to drink tea, but the wine in this world is not very good, but tea is much better than that on earth.
Drinking tea, eating vegetables, watching the scenery, and chatting for a few more sentences, it seems a little leisurely and comfortable, and time passes relatively slowly in this state.
Zhou Chen came to this world and hadn't enjoyed such a time for a long time.
Shen Junlian sat opposite, looking at Zhou Chen with a slightly red face, his heart was full of happiness.
Through getting along for a while, Zhou Chen's various words and deeds show his outstanding and excellent, which makes her like it even more.
Of course, Zhou Chen also has shortcomings.
For example, when he treats his enemies, sometimes he is extremely cold-blooded, sometimes he seems weird, and his voice is not good, always full of hoarseness. But these will be ignored by Shen Junlian, she identified Zhou Chen, and chose to tolerate everything about him.
"Beauty, it's unbearable......"
Zhou Chen knew Shen Junlian's affection, but he could only sigh in his heart.
But it's not the worst-case scenario, like now, he can keep her by his side until she runs out of life.
In an afternoon, the two spent this way.
Until there was no sunlight by the window, Zhou Chen was ready to leave.
However, this afternoon is not going to end perfectly.
Because Zhou Chen suddenly heard someone calling him.
"Zhou Chen! The surname is Zhou! If you have a kind, give it to me, I want to challenge you!"
A shout sounded outside the window, Zhou Chen leaned over to the window and looked down, and saw a group of people blocking the entrance of the restaurant, and also blocking the entire street, making it impossible for many pedestrians to pass.
However, since there is a lot of excitement to see, most of the pedestrians do not plan to pass, but stop to prepare to watch the play.
"Zhou Chen, is that the southern martial arts rookie who killed Xiao Qinglong and abolished the Little Boxing King?"
"These people are from the Qingcheng faction, and the leader seems to be Peng Hu, one of the three shows in Qingcheng, it seems that he is going to avenge Xiao Qinglong. ”
There are a few pedestrians who are also mixed with the rivers and lakes, so they know some rumors and have heard Zhou Chen's name.
And the group of people blocking the restaurant, from their uniform clothing, it is easy to see that they are from the Qingcheng faction.
"The surname is Zhou, do you have any seeds! I, Peng Hu, am going to avenge my senior brother today, if you don't come down again, I will lead someone to rush up!"
Several pedestrians did not recognize the wrong person, and the one standing at the front of these Qingcheng disciples shouting was Peng Hu.
This person was born with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, very strong, two heads taller than the group of people behind him. But the clothes he wore were the flowing robes of the Qingcheng faction, and with a standard long sword behind his back, it looked nondescript.
"Challenge me?"
Zhou Chen frowned, and then looked a little farther away, and saw the patrol officers of the Iron City waiting there to watch the show.
"This Peng Hu blocked the streets and shouted, it was supposed that he was going to be driven out of the city, but now no one cares about him, and there is obviously a filth in it. ”
Zhou Chen sneered, closed the window directly, sat down again, raised his voice and shouted: "Xiao Er, change me to a pot of hot tea and serve a few more good dishes!" (To be continued.) )
