Tibetan sword list, eleven provincial capitals. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
As one of the best events in Chinese martial arts, the status of the Tibetan Sword List is undoubtedly very high. Held in the lunar month of the year of the event, this event is the ideal examination room for each sect, and it is also a place for those who are big sects to show their muscles.
Although it is nominally only a ranking of young masters of various sects, the people who really fight on the Tibetan Sword List are regardless of age or size, and they do not have such a mechanism. In a sense, the Tibetan Sword List is only a sub-list, and the main and most official name of this grand event is still the capital of the eleven provinces.
The eleven provinces basically represent all the regions of the northern school of martial arts in China, and it is not an exaggeration to call it half of the country.
Although there are still a few days before the time of the Tibetan Sword List, Jinxi Province, where it is held, is lively early, and some warriors who come from afar to avoid missing the time specially come early to stay in the hotels around the venue, which also directly drives the prosperity of the surrounding market.
Vendors from all walks of life immediately sensed the business opportunity and set up stalls around the venue, selling on the street to do some small businesses with small profits and quick turnover.
In the consciousness of ordinary people, they don't know that these people are coming to the ring, so many people come to have an official saying, that is, the folk exchange meeting, although these participants are a little stout, but in the eyes of the citizens are all learning...... Just for folklore, well, communicate more.
The eleven provincial capitals have been held every six years from the beginning to the present, and it was held every six years, but at the beginning it was a big performance of the Jingwu Sports Association from Jinmen, and it was not until later that the influence became more and more extensive, and it developed to the current scale.
Although it is said that the eleven provinces are the capitals of the martial arts, but every time there is a real fight, the warriors who come can be said to be from all over the world, north to Longjiang Province, south to Qiongzhou Province, as long as it is a big sect in the martial arts, basically people will be sent to participate. Since the beginning of the new century, some martial artists have jokingly called this event the Olympics of the martial arts world.
But compared to the theme of Olympic peace, this martial arts is a bit tragic and bloody, every time you break your hands and feet in the ring, it is light, and it is normal to cause human life. Moreover, some sects also take this opportunity to resolve disputes with other forces, and some people also use this martial arts as an official platform to resolve personal grievances.
Although it sounds like a mess, the bigwigs of the various factions who preside over the eleven provincial capitals also have very clear rules, and if there are grievances, they can only be resolved in the ring during the meeting, no matter what the result is, they can't find trouble with the other party after they go out, and if there is a violation, even if it is the sect that hosts the martial arts, they will suffer from the common crusade of all other forces.
And Guo Xiu came to participate on behalf of the Medicine King faction this time.
The real race starts from the moment you go out.
This time, the expedition personnel sent by the Medicine King are not Guo Xiu alone, and the lineup can be described as unprecedentedly strong.
In addition to the dream language that went to relax with him, among the other people sent by the Medicine King, there were two top masters, Qingyi and Tong Okra, as for Yan Shikai's fat man, that guy made a mess last time because he drank too much, and this time he was directly punished by Guo Xiu for guarding the door at home, and he had no chance to follow.
In addition to these people, Guo Xiu also selected a few apprentices in the martial arts hall who usually practiced hard to come out to see the world, and brought five people, three men and two women, except for Zhou Lei, who was an old acquaintance with Guo Xiu, and two boys all saw Guo Xiu's demeanor on TV, so they came here.
One of the tall and burly strong men is a retired soldier, named Huang Feng, who was already a cultivator before he came to the martial arts hall, and now he is also in the situation of a third-rate middle grade, judging from his age of twenty-five, although he is not a genius, but he is also in the middle and upper rank.
And the last boy is very easy to recognize, but the smooth bald head inevitably makes people misunderstand that he is a disciple of Shaolin, this guy's name is Guo Chao, it turned out to be an ordinary college student, after experiencing hard exercise and the cooperation of drugs, now he has successfully stepped into the level of entering the product, which can reach the cultivation of the third-rate lower grade.
As for the two women, one of them is Sun Chuqing, whom Guo Xiu hasn't seen for a long time.
Chu Qing didn't know about this, it was Yan Shikai who informed her, but three days before leaving, she came to the door directly, Guo Xiu really couldn't bear her resentful eyes, and he was really a little sorry for others, so Guo Xiu finally had to agree to take her request.
However, for such a long time, what surprised Guo Xiu was that although Chu Qing still had a company to take care of, her kung fu was not pulled down at all, under Yan Shikai's dedicated teaching and the full supply of the resources of the Medicine King Sect, she was now a third-rate martial artist, and she was also the most powerful of the five students this time.
The last member of the team is also a girl, Guo Xiu still has some impression of her, it is the short-haired girl who asked the question after Guo Xiu practiced splitting boxing in the martial arts hall that day, and now Guo Xiu already knows that her name is Qu Yang.
Originally, this girl's performance in the martial arts hall was average, but last time after Guo Xiu's allocation, her strength suddenly improved by leaps and bounds, and she quickly broke through the shackles of grade and reached the realm of third-rate lower grades.
Compared with the three or two kittens a few months ago, the current Medicine King faction can be said to have greatly increased its strength, just pull out this formation, even a big faction like Wudang Shaolin does not dare to despise it in the slightest, and other small factions of the same scale as the Medicine King faction can only bow and worship.
The official start time of the eleven provincial capitals is on the eighteenth day of January in the solar calendar, which is also the seventh day of the lunar month.
"I'm definitely going to eat all the noodles from Jinxi this time, it is said that it is known as the noodle capital, and when I think of the mellow and rich soup of the dragon beard noodles, the smooth and smooth taste, and the charming aroma of green onion sesame oil, I can't help but drool down!"
Twenty-year-old Guo Chao is an authentic foodie, even if he is sitting on the train to Shanxi, all he thinks about is the food in Jinxi Province, looking at the drunken appearance, it seems that he has already smelled the aroma of dragon beard noodles.
"Don't talk about this, I haven't eaten yet, and I'm hungry when you say that."
Qu Yang on the side complained, leaned on the backrest of the hard seat while holding his stomach, and sighed leisurely: "How long does this car have to sit?" I'm going to wilt. ”
Guo Xiu didn't have much luxury this time, but took the express train directly with the group, although it was called the express train, but there was also a distance between Jinxi and Jinmen, and it took more than nine hours to reach the capital of Jinxi Province.
There are a total of nine people in the line, and all the seats in a row are rounded.
"Don't complain, you see that people didn't say anything at the beginning of the day, and the current journey is estimated to be less than halfway there...... I'm going to it, when the hell is this going to be a head. ”
Guo Chao's Tianjin natives, so although they went to college, they are no different from middle school, they are all at the doorstep, while Quyang's home is Jinghua, and it doesn't take long to go back and forth to school every time. These two people come from a wealthy family, and every time they go far away, they either go by high-speed rail or plane, where have they suffered such crimes.
You know, the style of this hard seat can only be appreciated by those who sit on a hard seat!
The group muttered and whispered from time to time, Guo Xiu just smiled and looked at all this, not at all like a twenty-year-old youth, but as old as a middle-aged man. But Guo Xiu's heart didn't want to be so comfortable on his expression.
Guo Xiu sat Mengyu on his left and Qingyi on his right, both arms were clutched tightly, looking like he was envious of others, but if he remained motionless and maintained this posture for four or five hours, this would not be welfare, but torture.
Can you imagine a life of fighting to go to the toilet?
These two girls are like koalas, wrapping Guo Xiu tightly on the left and right, and glaring at each other fiercely from time to time, the air is not only full of the sour smell of love, but also a choking smell of gunpowder.
In addition, Chu Qing, who was sitting opposite and sent a resentful look from time to time, if it weren't for Guo Xiu's mental ability to bear it relatively strong, he would have been driven crazy before he waited for Jinxi to compete.
