Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Beginning of the Edge
85_85898 "Who is Cheng Lao?" How high is the cultivation? Is there a Xue fritter high? Wang Yu squatted on the ground, holding a chicken leg in his hand and gnawing on it, his mouth was full of oil, and he didn't raise his head.
Zhang Dabao wiped it on himself with his hand, and the aftertaste was still the same: "Cheng Lao's status is similar to that of the sect master, what kind of person do you think he will be, and his cultivation is higher than my old fritters." ”
"How much higher?" Wang Yu asked.
Zhang Dabao's eyes rolled, he rolled his eyes and said: "Who knows how tall he is, anyway, Lao Youtiao and Lao Duzi can't beat the old man combined." ”
Wang Yu smiled, and casually wiped the remaining oil stains on Zhang Dabao's clothes and said, "Then come on, I want to worship him as a teacher." ”
Zhang Dabao patted his hand dissatisfied: "You let go of your hand, otherwise the little junior sister will be beaten again when you go back." ”
For this buddy who is not afraid of the master but is afraid of the little junior sister, Wang Yu's blows have always been merciless, and he reached out and wiped it on him again: "You are really not a man, even a woman is afraid." ”
Zhang Dabao jumped up suddenly, snorted angrily and said, "Brother Dabao, I am a bee picker from Xuanwenmen, and this is not a man?" ”
Wang Yu shook his head boringly, got up and walked to the room, and turned back to him and suddenly said: "The bees you picked are all stinging, and this is embarrassing to say that it is a man." ”
Zhang Dabao doesn't care if he stings or not, as long as he dares to stretch out his hand, he is an ironclad man, in his philosophy of life, if a man does not dare to pick bees in the flowers, then he is not a man.
He also shook his head uninterestedly, and was about to leave, but suddenly, he remembered something, ran to Wang Yu's room, and said solemnly: "Tomorrow is your casual cultivation competition, do you think about how to spend it?" ”
Wang Yu was silent for a while, and said indifferently: "The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, what else can be done." ”
Zhang Dabao said worriedly: "You just said that you want to worship Cheng Lao, but Cheng Lao has never accepted apprentices, he is arrogant, and he has always looked down on the disciples in the door, so you are a little hanging, and you don't even have a chance at all." ”
He paused and continued: "There are also Xuanwen Eight Sons who will also compete, competing to worship under the Cheng Lao Sect, for a casual cultivation like you who only has five layers, even if the level of casual cultivation competition is passed, it is estimated that Xuanwen Eight Sons will not be able to pass this level." ”
Wang Yu was silent for a moment, what Zhang Dabao said did have some truth, but he was bent on pursuing strength, in order to go to the north, and even if he died for the anti-Dao Sect, even if there was only a chance to do so, he had to fight hard.
He smiled and said indifferently: "It's not comparable, maybe Cheng Lao really takes a fancy to me, but you don't want to fight." ”
Zhang Dabao said with a sigh: "You also know, the day before yesterday, I told you that the nine sons of Xuanwen were not at ease in cultivating because of my unstable temperament, and as a result, the nine sons went to one of them and became the eighth son. ”
Listening to Zhang Dabao's casual conversation, Wang Yu stared at the few pimples that were still growing vigorously on his face, almost burst out laughing, and hurriedly turned his head and pretended to pour a glass of water to divert his attention.
Zhang Dabao had sharp eyes, and when he saw Wang Yu's expression, he thought of something, reached out and touched a few pimples on his face, and said with a look of regret: "Hey, it's so uncompromising, I'm going to find Lili first, and I'll come back to you early tomorrow morning." ”
Wang Yu nodded, looking at the back of Zhang Dabao leaving, this buddy who has only known each other for a few days is a bit like a fat man, if the fat man is still there, he really wants the two of them to get to know each other, after all, their hobbies are so the same.
This single-person house was asked for by Zhang Dabao for him, and the other hundred or so casual cultivators were all assigned to live in other courtyards, and several people were crowded into a small house, which was a bit troublesome for casual cultivators who wanted to meditate and cultivate, but Wang Yu was able to chat with Zhang Dabao, and Zhang Dabao helped him ask for a single room as soon as he came and went, which saved Wang Yu a lot of trouble.
Thinking of tomorrow's casual cultivation competition, Wang Yu was big for a while, more than a hundred people, but finally selected five casual cultivators, such a small enrollment number, it is really a bit scary. From every point of view, tomorrow's competition will be a terrifying killing, and in order to grab one of the five places, don't think about tomorrow's fight, it will be very tragic.
Wang Yu touched the acupuncture points in his mind tiredly, trying to calm himself down, thinking that at this moment, it is better to meditate early and maintain abundant cultivation, so that he can win tomorrow, and it is also a good way to use bloodstone at this time.
Following! The morning bell rang at the Xuanwen Gate, and people walked out of meditation one after another, staring at the white belly of the fish in the sky, thinking, today is a grand occasion.
The vast majority of casual cultivators are apprehensive, unlike the disciples of the Xuanwen Sect, who will come to the arena in a leisurely and elegant manner, leaving an aftertaste with melon seeds in their mouths.
Wang Yu looked at the lively crowd outside the house, and when it came to the excitement, it was not lively, because most of the casual cultivators who participated in the competition were preoccupied, and they just hurriedly lowered their heads and hurried away, without too much noise, just the occasional acquaintance and said hello to each other.
Gongsun Heng saw that Wang Yu was hurrying indifferently, and recognized the scholar he saw outside Daxuan Mountain last time at a glance, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Brother Wang, I don't know if you still remember it?" ”
Wang Yu suddenly saw someone greeting him, and glanced at him in surprise and said, "Gongsun Heng? ”
Gongsun Heng smiled: "It's exactly below." Seeing Wang Yu alone, he asked, "Why is Brother Wang alone?" ”
Wang Yu secretly scolded Zhang Dabao, who was nowhere to be seen, and nodded at Gongsun Heng and said: "I am new here, I don't know a few people, but my brother-in-law and fellow Daoists are familiar with each other. ”
Gongsun Heng smiled, and the few scattered cultivators who followed him smiled and nodded, they knew each other, and after a little familiarity, Gongsun Heng lightly smacked a short fan, and made a hand gesture of please: "Brother Wang is synchronized together." ”
Wang Yushi replied: "Please." ”
The group talked and laughed, and walked to the arena together.
At this time, Gongsun Heng said, "I wonder if Brother Wang has noticed the two famous loose cultivators recently?" ”
Wang Yu showed a puzzled look, shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it recently, but Brother Gongsun told me in detail." ”
Gongsun Heng glanced at him suspiciously and said: "It is said that this time there is a young man in a coarse cloth coat, who is ruthless and has superb skills, and has been mentioned by several elders of the Xuanwen Sect, and there is also a woman in a light blue skirt, with orchids and plants in her hands, all ruthless flowers, if Brother Wang meets these two people, you should pay attention." ”
Wang Yu silently kept these two people in his heart, and thanked Gongsun Heng for his puzzle: "Thank you Brother Gongsun, it's just that Brother Gongsun asked me to pay attention just now, why didn't Brother Gongsun participate in this competition?" ”
Gongsun Heng was a little surprised and said, "Brother Wang doesn't know the way of this competition? ”
Wang Yu looked suspicious, in recent days, he has been staying in the room to heal, occasionally Zhang Dabao brought one or two chickens to avoid the limelight, for the outside thing, I really don't know, so I nodded seriously and said: "I was a little injured a few days ago, and I haven't gone out, so I don't know." ”
Seeing Wang Yu's undisguised look, Gongsun Heng didn't say anything, but answered for him with a smile.
The arena is the fighting method of the disciples of the Xuanwen Sect, the place where the competition is practiced, and it is also the place where the disciples are usually recruited for interviews, about a few thousand zhang wide, and dozens of rings of all sizes have been built.
At this moment, the viewing platform surrounding the arena was bustling, and most of the Xuanwen Sect disciples who had time to watch were all coming when they heard the wind, and there were thousands of people.
Today is a grand occasion to watch, for these disciples who cultivate all day long and have no fun life, it is really rare, and when they participated in the interview competition before, they were also discouraged.
Wearing a pair of sloppy straw sandals, a few slag-free goatees, and a sallow face? Cheng Lao, who was obviously malnourished, sat next to the sect leader old yin monster with slightly squinted eyes, looking bored, and seemed to be a little unconcerned about this grand occasion.
Among the Xuanwenmen generation who dared to sit with the old yin monster and didn't give the old yin monster a good look, except for the two Dao Venerables in the holy mountain, there was no third person.
The old yin monster looked peaceful, and did not feel the slightest anger because of Cheng Lao's bad face, but just glanced at him helplessly, and waved impatiently to a middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man who used to stand with the old man with a helpless face walked over, bowed down and bowed, "Sect Master, can you start?" ”
The old yin monster nodded and said, "Nangong Rong, I'll leave it to you this time." ”
Nangong Rong bowed down and said yes, his body was straight, he rose into the air with a straight face, and shouted to the crowd below in a deep voice: "The competition begins, everyone knows the rules, and life and death depend on the success or failure of life." ”
The scattered cultivators below were in an uproar for a while, and the official disciples of the Xuanwen Sect who were supervising on the side stopped their voices solemnly and walked towards their respective platforms.
Xue Youtiao squinted his eyes and said to Lao Duzi: "Lao Duzi, don't count the last competition, this time again?" ”
Lao Du Zi smiled and said: "Who said it doesn't count, the old yin monster agreed, two people are older than you, you dare to cheat?" I think forget it this time, everything in your cave has been moved, what other decent things can you come up with? ”
Xue Youtiao's face turned dark and said, "Who said no, do you think my Thousand Soul Fingers are enough?" ”
Lao Duzi's face froze, and he stared at him for a while and said solemnly: "This time I bet on everything you lost!" ”
Xue Youtiao stretched out his right palm, and Lao Du Zi tacitly struck out with a palm, snapping twice, and the oath was proof.
The old yin monster glanced over there, stretched out his hand and raised a jade grinding plate in his palm, which needless to say, three old monsters who are addicted to gambling and love to play with money, gamble again.
Wang Yu stood in the crowd, a little thin, there were more than 20 fifth-layer loose cultivators standing beside him, and two fifth-layer scattered cultivators on the stage were fighting, and not long after, a casual cultivator was punched in the chest by a mad python man, and fell off the stage to die with a whimper.
"Three-on-three! The rules are the same, if you lose, you can admit defeat, but don't lose your life. The Xuanwen Sect disciple who supervised the competition, carrying a long sword on his back, spoke coldly.
Number Three! It was Wang Yu, I didn't expect to come to the stage so soon, Wang Yu's mood was slightly nervous, but he still walked on stage under the eyes of everyone.
The opponent was a young man with a domineering face, and as soon as he came to the stage, he shouted: "Boy, seeing that you are weak and weak, you should hurry up and get off the stage, otherwise you will blame the master for not leaving his hand." ”
Wang Yu smiled faintly, arrogance does not mean that he has strength, and it is not up to the other party to decide who fights.
He made a gesture of invitation and motioned for the young man to make a move.
The young man snorted coldly, hooked his hands into claws, and grabbed Wang Yu's front door with an eagle striking the sky.
Wang Yu glanced at him indifferently, this kind of eagle striking the sky is really rare, I saw that when the young man jumped in from the air, a pair of black wings grew behind him, and a pair of sharp hands instantly turned into sharp hooks, diffusing cultivation.
The young man looked ruthless, and when he saw that Wang Yu was still standing there calmly, he didn't notice the slightest change, and still fell down from the air and hit Wang Yu in front of the door.
Wang Yu turned his backhand, and the little sword flew out with a roar, taking advantage of his unpreparedness, he shot straight into the chest of the young man. Taken aback, he immediately grabbed the little sword, and with a snap, a claw shook the little sword open, but his eyes suddenly flickered, and a white-clothed robe floated by, Wang Yu's right Ziyan sword choked on the young man's bones, staring at the young man coldly.
The young man's face turned pale in an instant, his cold hair stood up, cold sweat swished down, and those cold eyes made him feel frightened and couldn't help but tremble.
"You can throw in the towel." Wang Yu looked at him lightly and spoke, and the young man hurriedly wiped his cold sweat as if he was about to be amnestied, and shouted: "I admit defeat, I surrender." ”
As soon as the young man finished speaking, he ran down in a gloomy manner, and from beginning to end, he didn't know how he lost, but his eyes were just flowering, and he couldn't help but feel deeply afraid.
Xue Youtiao's eyebrows fluttered, patted his thigh hard, and shouted, "Good job." ”
Old Du Zi glanced at him and said, "It's just that I won once, and there is still a queue behind me." ”
Xue Youtiao chuckled a few times, his eyes secretly glanced at the old man who was dozing, and there was a gray-haired fat dog squatting next to the old man, drooping his head and glancing at Xue Youtiao, Xue Youtiao laughed twice.
"No. 3 Wang Yusheng! Number Eight Appearance! The disciple with the long sword on his back, this time his voice was not so cold, he seemed a little calm, and his eyes looked at Wang Yu a few times before he spoke calmly.
Standing under the stage of the fifth layer of condensation cultivation, his face looked extremely surprised and admired, and he was a little shocked by Wang Yu's methods, from the beginning to the end, it seemed that it was only two breaths of time, and he let the opponent lose and throw, but what surprised and admired them even more was that Wang Yu actually did not take the opportunity to kill, if he wanted to think about the young man just now, but he had mocked him verbally, but he had no intention of revenge, it was really worth trying to make a deep friendship.
With such an understanding, Wang Yu went down from the stage, and all the scattered cultivators cast kind eyes and looks, only a few scattered cultivators looked indifferent, their eyes were full of ruthlessness, and there was no trace of human flavor, just like the man in the coarse cloth coat, a bit like the person Gongsun Heng said.
Wang Yu knew that this kind of people were all ruthless people who killed and killed, and they were only focused on cultivating and killing, and there was no humanity to talk about at all, so while feeling surprised in his heart, he quietly remembered the faces of these people, especially the man whose eyes were as dead as water and whose face was ruthless.
On the arena, it was in full swing, the scene was hot, and the male disciples of the Xuanwenmen were wandering around leisurely and elegantly, leaving incense everywhere, cheering a few times over there, and hooking up with such a beautiful female cultivator for a while
