Chapter 10: On the Sword "Hero"

In the past few days, heroes from all over the world, whether they have received invitations or have not received them, have come to Chaoge Kong's house one after another. Kong Xuandu ordered people to arrange food and accommodation for people from all walks of life one by one.

The first to arrive was the fox slaughter and the first to kill. Hu Tu is a descendant of the noble fox clan of the Jin Kingdom, and his ancestors are Beidi. The most outstanding figure of the Fox clan is Hu Yan, who was the most relied on by Duke Wen of Jin to reign as the hegemon, and saved Chong'er from danger several times when Duke Wen of Jin was in exile. His descendants were defeated in the struggle with the Zhao clan and fled back to Beidi, but the power of the Fox clan has been hidden in the shadows of the three armies of the Jin State, and they still retain considerable power to serve the Jin monarch.

The first slaughter is the descendant of the marshal of the Jin army, and the double-headed halberd used by it is endlessly varied and indestructible. Xianzhen followed Jin Wengong to kill the Chu army with this halberd during the Battle of Chengpu, and soaked it with the blood of countless Chu army soldiers, and gathered hatred in the halberd, and became bloodthirsty. As soon as the halberd comes out, you will see blood.

And then to the matter of Chang Xingjun of the Qin State and Baili Benlei. Chang Xingjun is also a doctor and poison, and the enemy is unprepared to attack the enemy with poison gas, so that he dies invisibly, when the Qin State went west, Qin Mugong was trapped in the Xirong array, and his Chang clan is to use poison gas to kill a bloody road, save Qin Mugong in danger, and break Xirong with the Baili clan. There are two sides to everything, the Chang clan can not only use poison to kill people, but also cure all kinds of poisons and diseases, and have saved countless soldiers in the Qin army, and they are deeply relied on by the Duke of Qin.

Baili Benlei is the descendant of Baili Xi of Wuyang Xiangguo, and he runs as fast as his name, and is extremely brave, and shocks Xirong. Baili Benlei once fought against Xirong in a crusade, the two armies faced each other, and General Xirong killed several Qin generals in a row, which was very arrogant. Seeing this, Baili Benlei quickly attacked, and in an instant, the laughter of General Xirong was still echoing between the two armies, and his head had been taken down by Baili Benlei. When the Xijon army came to their senses, they only saw a headless general sitting on their horses, and suddenly the army was disheartened and fled in all directions.

Qi came from Jiaoqiu Xin, who is known as the first warrior of Qi and Tian Yong, who has the first noble blood of Qi ---- Tian clan, known as the golden armor holy spear, and its armor is made of countless small golden spears, which can both defend and attack.

The Zhou royal family came to the four royal ---- Yuyi, Yuman, Yurong, and Yudi, each with unique skills and equipped with a hardware shield, which can defend against various weapon attacks and secretly protect the safety of the Zhou royal family.

The state of Chu already has a son, Xiong Jian and Yangjiye, who arrived before, and the public of Lu arrived a few days ago and fought with the corpse beast pawn.

Others who came were some martial arts people from small countries such as Chen, Cai, and Zheng, and they had arranged to stay at an inn near the Confucian Mansion.

April 5th, the day of the beginning of the Sword Debate. On this day, at the beginning of the morning, the warm breeze caressed, the peach petals fluttered and fell, and there were still a few pieces left on the tree, which were crumbling by the morning wind. A carriage came slowly from far and near, and the hooves and wheels of the horses trampled on the peach petals on the ground. I saw that the horse's body was snow-white and there was not a single black hair, only the calf to the horse's hooves was as black as ink, and there was not a single white hair. On either side of the carriage were four beautiful white-clothed women, each with a sword like white jade hanging from their waists. Everywhere they passed, passers-by all looked sideways, guessing which princely and nobleman's daughter must be in the car.

Kong Xuan heard the report, hurriedly put down everything in his hand, and walked quickly to the door of the mansion to wait.

Before the carriage stopped, Kong Xuan had already come to the front of the carriage. The curtain of the car opened first, a smooth white and tender hand stretched out, before the person appeared, Kong Xuan had already supported his hands forward, and said: "The son is here, and he has not come far away, please forgive me." ”

I saw a middle-aged man walking down from the car, with beautiful hair, handsome face, gestures, elegance, handsomeness and chic. The person who came was Ji Zha, the son of Wu Guo. Ji Zha's father is Wu Wang Shoumeng, Shoumeng intended to pass the throne to Ji Zha, Ji Zha insisted on not accepting the throne on the grounds of the order of the eldest and youngest, but traveled to various countries, made friends with heroes, studied in the hundreds of sons at that time, and was proficient in Zhou etiquette. Ji Zha is equipped with a white as jade, flawless pure Jun sword, practiced a set of six swordsmanship, in the Central Plains vassal states have a very high prestige, known as the "six gentlemen sword", the practice of swordsmanship never the first shot, but the last to come, slow to control fast, never kill innocents, even if with people to compete with the gentleman style.

Ji Zha also saluted: "Mr. Kong's invitation, how dare you not come, not to mention that everyone in the world wants to see the true face of the Chengying Sword." I, Jiza, am also inevitably vulgar, and I am eager to see it. ”

"Childe's talent and martial arts are unparalleled in the world, and I am intending to give the Chengying Sword to Childe."

"Why does the gentleman mean this? The heroes of the world thought that this was here, and Ji Za Erer really didn't dare to accept it. ”

"Hahaha" Kong Xuan said with a smile: "The son of Ji Zha is really worthy of his reputation, Qingtian is not dirty, and he is also a true gentleman." The world only admits that the shadow sword flocks to it, only the son is unmoved, and Kong Xuan admires it. ”

"Sir, you're serious."

Kong Xuan raised his hand and said, "Childe, please, the Sword Conference is ready, Childe, please come in and continue." ”

"Please!" Jiza also said.

The two entered the house.

When Ji Zha arrived at the venue, he saw that the heroes of various countries were already present, some of them were more familiar, and some of them were relatively unfamiliar. The heroes of all countries greeted each other when they saw Ji Zha, and Ji Zha also returned the salute to everyone one by one, and then sat down in the front position on the left, and the four maidservants named Bai Yun, Mingyue, Chunjiang, and Huaye always followed him, never leaving an inch. Some young juniors from small countries don't know why, and from time to time they secretly look at Ji Zha and the four maidservants, and whisper: "This is Ji Zha, the son of Wu State, is really charming; He is not only good-looking, but also proficient in Zhou etiquette, which is admired even by the people of Lu; Not only that, I heard that he regarded fame and fortune as a mustard, otherwise he would have been the king of Wu a long time ago; What, that's his bohemianism, ****, you see, he can't do without beauties wherever he goes, and the four beauties behind him are really immortalsβ€’β€’β€’β€’β€’β€’β€’β€’β€’"

At this time, Kong Xuan walked to a large table in the middle, and two people behind him carried a long wooden box on the table, the wooden box was beautifully carved, hovering with nine dragon auspicious clouds.

Kong Xuan made a circle and said, "Thank you for your appreciation, come here to participate in the sword conference, the old man is grateful. You may want to ask why the Chengying Sword hidden by my Kong clan is to be taken out and given to others. It's not a secret, just because the current King of Chu wants to dominate the world, he has coveted the Chengying Sword for a long time, and he has sent the Demon Dao strongman to seize this sword several times. As we all know, according to ancient legends, the Chengying Sword is a divine sword, forged by the King of Shang Tang, and there is a mysterious power hidden in the sword, both good and evil, and those who can obtain this power will be able to dominate the rivers and lakes and dominate the world. The old man was stupid, and he never understood it, and he didn't dare to understand the mystery. Since the old man regained this sword, he has fought fiercely in the demon path for several times, although there are dead and wounded, fortunately, the Chengying Sword is safe and sound. ”

"Yes, that's true!" Gongzi Xiong Jian said suddenly: "The corpse beast pawns in the demon path are really fierce and cruel, drinking human blood and eating human flesh, it is simply inhumane. Although I am also from the Chu State, I have always opposed the hegemony of the Chu State, how good it is for everyone to coexist peacefully, why bother to fight and kill, and so many people die. Therefore, I fought side by side with Mr. Kong to repel the corpse beast pawns, so that the plot of the King of Chu did not succeed. ”

Several people present were secretly amused: "Gentlemen, talk nonsense." ”

Kong Xuan continued: "The old man knows that his ability is limited, although he has temporarily kept the Chengying Sword, but the King of Chu is powerful, I am afraid that one day the Chengying Sword will be taken away by the Demon Dao, which will bring disaster to the world." That's why the old man opened this sword conference, and I would like to ask you to nominate a person who is good at morality and martial arts, and all the heroes of the world are convinced, and give him the Chengying Sword, which can not only protect the Chengying Sword from falling into the hands of the Demon Dao people, but also make good use of this sword to benefit the world. ”

After Kong Xuan finished speaking, the surroundings immediately began to shout and discuss, all saying that there is anyone in the world who is qualified to get the Chengying Sword. One person said: "I think that the public of the Lu State can get the Chengying Sword by daylight." ”

"Why?" Another asked.

"How amazing is the wood machine flying beast of the Gong Losing Clan, which one in the world can compare? What's more, the state of Lu is the fief of the Duke of Zhou and the authority of Zhou Li. ”

"Definitely. I think the Baili clan of the Qin State can, they walk like flying, and the people in the demon path can't catch up if they want to. ”

"When you see people in the Demon Dao, you can run away What kind of heroes are heroes, besides, the Qin State is a Rongdi country, and they have the Chengying Sword, so there may be some chaos."

"Then who do you say is eligible?"

"I think it's none other than Prince Jiza. The prince of Ji Zha is not only good at martial arts, but also proficient in etiquette, music, archery, royalty, calligraphy, and mathematics, and he is not even a person to say, just resigning from the position of King Wu can be seen in general, and the most important thing is that Wu is now strong and strong, and even Chu does not dare to provoke. ”

"Then the Jin Kingdom Fox Slaughter deserves it, the strength of the Jin Kingdom is the strongest among the nations!"

"That was in the past, not necessarily now............"

"Fart!" Fox Tu said angrily: "Have you seen the Chengying Sword, just talking nonsense here." ”

The few people who were talking about it just now all knew that Fox Tu was strong in martial arts and reckless, and he would do it when he said he would do it, so frightened that he hid aside and didn't speak.

Hu Tu said: "All the heroes in the world think that here, there must be a person who has both ability and political integrity." It's just that everyone present has only heard of the name of the Chengying Sword, but has never seen the body of the Chengying Sword. Mr. Kong, can you let everyone see the true face of the Chengying Sword first, and let me wait for a detailed reference, maybe you can understand the mystery. ”

Someone immediately chimed in: "That's it, Mr. Kong, take it out and let's take a look at it first, it's a feast for your eyes!" ”

Kong Xuan said: "That's fine. After speaking, he slowly opened the wooden box on the table, only to see that the box was covered with a layer of golden silk, and when the silk was lifted, there was a thin and long bronze square box underneath.

Kong Xuan held the sword in both hands and came to the center of the field. At this time, the red sun rose, and the figures swayed. Kong Xuan gently pulled the Chengying Sword out of its scabbard, only to see that the sword light was frequent, scorching people's eyes. When the sword was all unsheathed, everyone was first shocked, then sighed, and then surprised.

It turned out that Kong Xuan pulled out the Chengying Sword, the sword light flickered, everyone was amazed, and then the sword body slid, and everyone saw only a sword hilt and no sword body, everyone thought that Kong Xuan was playing tricks, and he sighed, and then everyone found that there was a shadow on the ground, the shadow moved with the sword, and the sword was invisible. It turned out that the Chengying Sword was an invisible sword, and everyone was amazed.

Kong Xuan held the hilt of his sword in his hand and danced in the morning sun. I saw the sword shadow elegant, agile and fast. At this time, a gust of wind blew, the pine forest was bleak, and Kong Xuan's body jumped up with the wind and landed next to a pine tree with a thick bowl mouth. I saw Kong Xuan raise his arm, draw an elegant arc, and wave towards the tall green pine. The sword light passed, the green pine shook slightly, and the sword was still sheathed. Kong Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, and another gust of wind blew, only to see the pine tree swaying, the trunk made a creaking and sliding sound, and slowly, the green pine fell slowly, and the trunk was neatly cut off.

Kong Xuan said: "Everyone, this is the Chengying Sword, how about it?" ”

Everyone looked at each other, some shook their heads, but so, it was just a sharp sword, and it was not as mysterious as the legend.

Jiao Qiuxin jumped out of the crowd, and without saying a word, walked to a thicker pine tree, waved a black and gold blunt sword in his hand, and smashed it into the big tree. I only heard a "click", and the big tree also broke off from it. Jiao Qiu Xin said proudly: "The Chengying Sword is nothing special, but so. Like my iron sword, it's nothing more than broken stone and broken wood. Mr. Kong, haven't you shown the power of the Chengying Sword yet? ”

Kong Xuan saw that Jiaoqiu Xin was arrogant and arrogant, and he had the intention to kill his majesty, so he said: "Knocking down a tree is nothing, you can do it with all your strength." The Chengying Sword also has a great power that needs to be collided with other weapons to be displayed, would Mr. Pepper be willing to give it a try? ”

At this time, there were good deeds in the crowd and shouted: "Yes, Jiao Qiu Xin, can't you see which is stronger and which is weaker when you fight against your blunt sword and Chengying sword?" ”

"That's right, so let's all open our eyes, maybe your blunt sword is sharper than the Chengying sword?"

"I don't think he dare, he's afraid that the Chengying Sword will cut his blunt sword into nunchucks."

"Hahaha!" The crowd burst into laughter.

Jiao Qiuxin's face was flushed, and he said stubbornly: "Compare to compare, who is afraid of whom." However, he still had some doubts in his heart, after all, the Chengying Sword was an ancient divine sword, although his black gold blunt sword was mined from the Xuantie at the top of Mount Tai, but compared with the Chengying Sword, he was still a lot weaker.

Jiao Qiuxin raised the black gold blunt sword and said, "Offended, Mr. Kong, please." After speaking, he smashed it towards Kong Xuan's Chengying Sword. Jiao Qiu Xin thought to himself: I will hit your Chengying Sword with a fierce force, and press you down on the potential path first, so that I can take the advantage.

Kong Xuan saw the black iron blunt sword smashing down rapidly, so he swung his sword upward. Seeing a flash of cold light, everyone did not hear the sound of the two swords colliding, but saw the black iron blunt sword slamming on the ground, and Jiao Qiuxin's hair had been cut off by a section, and when it was blown by the wind, it was immediately scattered and embarrassed.

Seeing this scene, everyone was in a commotion, they obviously saw the two swords fighting each other, why did the Chengying Sword dodge the black gold blunt sword and directly cut off Jiao Qiuxin's hair. And Jiao Qiu Xin's black gold blunt sword was like hitting the air, and no matter how strong it was, it was useless.

Kong Xuan said: "Everyone, this is the power of the Chengying Sword, and it is hidden in the air. The Shadow Sword is adaptable to its own devices, visible and invisible, and can penetrate any weapon. Kong Xuan turned around and said to Jiao Qiuxin, who was standing beside him with his hair scattered: "The old man missed for a while, and Brother Jiao was offended. ”

At this time, Jiao Qiuxin's arrogance was gone, and he said stupidly: "Thank you Mr. for your mercy, the Chengying Sword is really a divine sword." After saying that, he lowered his head and blended into the crowd.

Kong Xuan continued: "The mystery of the Chengying Sword is more than this, but the old man is dull and can't understand it. Please nominate a man with good martial arts and intelligence, and swear in front of all the heroes to protect the Chengying Sword from being obtained by the Devil, and the old man will give him this sword, hoping that the hero can understand the ultimate mystery of the Chengying Sword, and use it for the righteous path, hoe the strong and help the weak, kill the evil and evil, and benefit the world. ”

After Kong Xuan finished speaking, there was another commotion in the crowd.
