Xiao Yan hurriedly stood up and said, "Brother Zuo, it's serious, this little brother is Xiao's friend in the rivers and lakes, not a soldier under his command. A few days ago, I came to Yangxian for a banquet and play, and it was really not appropriate to make a big move. ”

Zuo Ziqing smiled indifferently and said to Xiao Yan: "General Xiao, dancing with a sword alone, how lonely and lonely, Zuo is not talented, why don't you try it with General Xiao?"

Xiao Yan coughed dryly and said with a light smile: "Brother Zuo is a high disciple under the seat of Prince Xiao, and the name of the wind swordsmanship shocks the world, as the saying goes, 'there are no dogs in the Tiger Gate, and a good teacher produces a high apprentice', Xiao knows that his swordsmanship attainments are not high, and he is definitely not the opponent of Brother Zuo, so he really dare not take the stage to show his ugliness." ”

After Xiao Yan finished speaking, he waved his hand again and again, and he thought that his martial arts were inferior, and praised him for his superb swordsmanship, but he secretly wondered in his heart: I don't know what means Wang Jingze used to make Xiao Wangye's high-ranking disciples turn to his disciples.

Zuo Ziqing said with a hint of contempt: "Haha, Zuo has nothing to praise, but the Qingfeng sword in his hand can still be taken out to show ugliness." I can't imagine that the rivers and lakes are full of rumors that General Xiao is a hero of the world, a civil and military all-rounder, and he is a rotten Confucian who talks with his hands on weekdays and reports to the king when he dies, so timid, timid and afraid of things, how can he shoulder the heavy responsibility of Gyeonggi's safety, and don't let the world laugh at him!"

The words were sharp and sarcastic, and everyone burst into laughter when they heard it.

Xiao Yan took a sip of wine and was silent.

When Li Ji heard this, he was indignant in his heart: "This Zuo Ziqing, with Wang Jingze's support behind him, is arrogant and domineering, insulting General Xiao in front of the public, and showing no mercy, which is really hateful! If I don't make a test with him, I'm afraid it will really make the world laugh in the future." ”

So he smiled slightly, slowly stood up, and said to Zuo Ziqing: "In Xia Li Ji, his fist and foot kung fu attainments are very shallow, and his martial arts are low, he is a nobody from the middle of the rivers and lakes, I see that your swordsmanship is quite interesting, so I can't help laughing." ”

Zuo Ziqing couldn't help but feel angry when he heard that there was no respect in his words, and said, "What's so funny about that?"

Li Ji wrote lightly: "The sword moves you have just danced are extremely graceful and graceful, beautiful and moving, and the swordsmanship is certainly beautiful, but if you really go into battle to kill the enemy, it is another matter." ”

Zuo Ziqing listened to him become more and more arrogant, and couldn't help but be angry, but said to Xiao Yan: "General Xiao, this little brother is sitting with you, isn't it really a soldier under your command?"

Xiao Yan didn't understand why he asked this, and was slightly stunned: "No, he is a friend of Xiao who met not long ago. ”

Zuo Ziqing's eyes were cold and even had a hint of murderous intent flashing: "Since this little brother is not a soldier under General Xiao, it is even better, if you offend him, it will not be considered to have swept your face." ”

Xiao Yan was shocked when he heard this, and faintly felt a murderous aura surging over, and secretly said something bad in his heart, so he raised his voice and said: "This little brother, although he has no deep friendship with me, is like a friend at first sight. Today is the Jiangzuo Heroes Conference, there are many talents, heroes are multiplied, I salute you, why should Brother Zuo bother with the younger generation?"

Ignoring Xiao Yan's kind words and persuasion, Zuo Ziqing strode over, stretched out his sword and pointed at Li Ji's chest, and shouted, "Are you really not, or are you pretending to be stupid?"

Li Ji saw that the tip of his sword was only a few inches from his chest, and he only needed to send it lightly, and stabbed it into the heart, but his face did not show the slightest panic, and said: "I naturally really can't, what's there to pretend to be stupid?"

Zuo Ziqing said: "You are spreading wild here, you must be impatient, who are you, if you don't say it directly, don't blame Zuo for being ruthless under the sword." ”

Li Ji joked: "Zuo Daxia, I heard that your 'Wind Sword Technique' is studied under the Huaxia Palace, so aggressive, but you don't have the demeanor of Prince Xiao. Even if Li Ji is not good at learning and martial arts, he can only ask you for a lesson or two. ”

Princess Wukang stood aside as a scholar, and saw that Zuo Ziqing's words were disrespectful and unforgiving, her face was already pale, and it was inconvenient to have a seizure on the spot, so she gave Tian Anqi a look.

Tian Anqi was so smart, he immediately understood, and stood up and said: "Zuo Shaoxia, the beautiful scenery of a good day, why don't you dance the sword with you and cheer everyone up?"

Zuo Ziqing couldn't help but be stunned when he saw that the person who came was dressed in brocade and silk, noble and abnormal, and then saw that he was just an entourage standing beside Xiao Yan, and couldn't help but be furious: "A little entourage, I also want to challenge this young man, the people here are either the powerful people of the dynasty or the celebrities of the rivers and lakes in the Jiangzuo area, all of them are people with heads and faces, do you have a part in speaking here?"

Li Ji patted Tian Anqi's shoulder, and said with a faint smile: "Thank you Brother Tian for speaking up, Li Ji is grateful, but he also has a sense of proportion in his heart, he can deal with it, and he doesn't need to worry too much." ”

Then he turned his head to Zuo Ziqing and said: "Zuo Daxia, Li will not brush off your kindness, please take out the sword!"

Zuo Ziqing couldn't bear it anymore, the blue light flashed, and a Qingfeng sword suddenly stabbed out, pointing at Li Ji's right shoulder, and the sword technique was swift, which made people avoid it.

Li Ji seemed to have expected it, took a step forward diagonally, and avoided it sideways, Zuo Ziqing was slightly stunned, thinking that he would undoubtedly win under a sword, but he was easily avoided.

Zuo Ziqing couldn't make a move, and couldn't help but be furious, his wrist shook and the sword slanted, and the blade of the sword slashed towards Li Ji's right neck.

Li Ji smiled secretly in his heart, when he was gathering in the palace mountains and seas, he had seen the "Wind Sword Technique" of Xiao Feng, the king of Huaxia, which was similar to the "Dugu Divine Sword" and "Divine Dragon Sword Technique" he had learned, and every move and style had already been deeply rooted in his mind.

Therefore, he is familiar with Zuo Ziqing's sword moves, and often before he finishes his sword moves, his body has moved, and he cleverly avoids the place where the sword edge reaches.

In an instant, the two have exchanged more than ten moves, Zuo Ziqing not only failed to win, but was dwarfed by a little, on the other hand, Li Ji was calm and relaxed, wandering between the swords, and had not yet made a sword.

Everyone couldn't help but secretly wonder that although Zuo Ziqing was not a kendo master in the Jiangzuo area, what he learned was after all a world-famous "Wind Sword Technique", and no one dared to despise it.

What I never expected was that the unknown boy who was fighting the sword, with a sven appearance and a weak body, seemed to be unfathomable and had a unique skill.

Zuo Ziqing saw that the heroes of all factions outside the arena were in an uproar, full of ridicule and ridicule, and couldn't help but be furious, and he took out his sword faster, and stabbed Li Ji at the point.

Li Ji saw that Zuo Ziqing seemed to be crazy, and couldn't help but be secretly surprised: "The hero talks about the sword, it should be the point to the end, the heart has a scale, and the action is measured, Zuo Ziqing's move is fatal, regardless of the rules of the rivers and lakes, obviously he wants to take my life, it is really despicable and shameless! The old man Dugu once said that the swordsmanship does not seek moves, but to be accurate in the sword, the enemy should be the first, and the enemy is missing. Fighting against Zuo Ziqing's sword, his own skill is shallow, and he can't easily use the sword, so he must take advantage of the chaos of his sword moves to strike out a sword, so that he can't guard against it. ”

Li Ji deliberately provoked him and said: "Zuo Daxia, you have attacked more than ten swords in a row, and you can't even defeat a nobody, and the world-famous 'Wind Sword Technique' has become a 'Disease Sword Technique' on your side, although the posture is beautiful, it is not lethal, and it is okay to pretend to be sick, it is really sad and lamentable!"

When Zuo Ziqing heard this, he was furious, his face turned iron-blue, and he attacked three swords in a row, all of which were skillfully resolved by Li Ji.

The most taboo in martial arts and sword training is that you can't hold your breath, and in the fight of the masters, the heart is slightly restless, which can often cause great mistakes or mistakes, as the saying goes, "the difference is a millimeter, and the error is a thousand miles".

The decision was made in a split second.

Zuo Ziqing saw that Li Ji was just dodging and had no power to parry, but he couldn't hurt the slightest hair, so he couldn't help but be impatient and sweat like rain.

He was anxious to win, and the flaws revealed in his sword moves gradually increased, Li Ji seized the golden opportunity, suddenly drew his sword and made a move, galloping like lightning, and a sword hit Zuo Ziqing's throat.

Zuo Ziqing saw that the tip of the sword touched the skin on his throat, and suddenly felt cold, and he couldn't help but be frightened and his face was like earth, and he closed his eyes and waited for death.

Li Ji slowly put away the Chixiao Sword, hugged his fists and said, "Zuo Shaoxia, admit it!"

"You ......" Zuo Ziqing suddenly realized at this time, Li Ji deliberately made teasing words, and when he was angry and chaotic, he broke his swordsmanship with a sword, and he was so angry that he couldn't say a word for a while.

Wang Jingze's face could not hide his surprise, but he quickly regained his composure and said: "This little brother is really a hero from a young man, with unique skills and swordsmanship. Zuo Ziqing, thank you Li Shaoxia for your mercy!"

When Zuo Ziqing heard this, he said reluctantly: "Zuo Ziqing was defeated by Your Excellency's sword today, and he was convinced!"

After saying that, he brushed his sleeves and left.

Li Ji's palms were already sweating, and he secretly thought: "If you hadn't seen Xiao Wangye's 'Wind Sword Technique', with your own cultivation, you would definitely not be Zuo Ziqing's opponent." It was a fluke to be able to win this time. ”

"Promise, promise!" Li Ji gave everyone a fist salute, and then returned to his seat.

Yu Baoqing gave a thumbs up and said, "Little brother, it's really amazing, win wonderful!"

Wang Jing stared intently at the table of Xiao Yan and Li Ji, his face became more and more solemn, he paused, and said: "Everyone has come from afar, the delicacies of Yangxian Drunken Immortal Building are a must in northern Jiangsu, and the twenty-year-old daughter Red is also ten miles fragrant, you might as well listen to the music while tasting it!"

Suddenly, I heard a rough voice shouting: "General Wang, I have come all the way to come, not to drink and listen to music here, and to have a boring pastime. The old man dared to ask, where is the secret of Fengyun?"

When everyone saw that the person who spoke was Xiong Yitong, the leader of the Haisha Gang, they were also in an uproar, and they all nodded yes.

Wang Jingze's expression froze, and he said: "The secret of the wind and clouds is related to the safety of the world, and the righteous path of martial arts is prosperous, and I also understand that you are anxious, lest it fall into the hands of the evil demons." Although Wang is not talented, he has received the emperor's holy grace, and he is a hussar general in the official residence, defending the family and defending the country, and at the same time he has also been appreciated by the people in Jiangzuo Jianghu and respected me as the leader of the Jiangzuo Wulin Alliance. A few days ago, secret agents on the front line of the Northern Wei Dynasty sent news that there were traces of Fengyunjue. ”

Everyone was overjoyed and said, "Is this true?"

Wang Jing waved his hand and said with a gloomy expression: "Of course, just as Wang Mou's flying pigeon passed the letter to urgently inform the Jiangzuo factions to hold a hero conference, the secret agent had an accident on the way, and the wooden box he was carrying was stolen. ”

Jiang Zuo Haojie asked one after another: "Who ate the bear's heart leopard gall and dared to steal the things of the leader of Jiang Zuo's martial arts alliance?"

Wang Jing raised his glass and said, "General Xiao, I don't think this matter has anything to do with you, right?"

Xiao Yan was stunned when he heard this, frowned and said, "I don't know what General Wang meant?"
