099. The Storm of the Ceremony 1

At this banquet, I don't know if Nangong Dingkang's other purposes have been achieved, but Nangong Jin is really famous. That night, many families with marriageable daughters came to inquire about his situation, and they were even more anxious to ask about the direct match. Even Nangong Pu didn't expect his younger brother to be so marketable, and teased him that maybe there would be women throwing sachets and handkerchiefs on the road in the future.

The next day, Nangong Jin's neat dress, *, solemn, except for the feeling of covering the prickly heat, everything was fine.

The ancestral hall is connected to the mansion, and you can enter the side door of the ancestral hall directly from the back door. However, this is the route that usually takes place when you are penalized. Although he knew that the main entrance of the ancestral hall was facing the street, and he also knew that he had to go out to enter the door, Nangong Jin really didn't think that he would have to go around the street so much to get there.

Handkerchiefs, sachets ......, the eldest brother is really a person who has come over, and it is a prophecy. Can you hide? Nangong Jin was entangled, and he should ask his eldest brother when he went out. Alas, as long as you don't hit your body on a horse, you let it be. Nangong Jin didn't squint and was expressionless, but she had a few more momentum in the eyes of the little daughters.

Although it was about opening the ancestral hall before, there was a small disturbance in the clan. But after all, Nangong Dingkang's majesty as the patriarch and his reputation have always made the clan somewhat taboo. On the day of the ceremony, there were still a lot of people who should have come. The Nangong clan is not prosperous, but there are nearly 100 adult men in the family and side branches, and the square in front of the ancestral hall is almost full.

Nangong Dingkang's words and deeds were in accordance with the ancient etiquette, and everyone present was even more serious and serious, especially the four who performed the coming-of-age ceremony. Even Nangong Jin has lost the attitude that he has always had to be indifferent, and the meticulousness of the sword dance of the conscience is also charming. Nangong Pu finally relieved himself, this kid finally didn't mess around.

The main ceremony lasted for half a day, and in the afternoon it was a competition for the four of them to compete with their peers and the elders to take the school examination. Generally speaking, it is just a scene, which only shows that the Nangong clan does not forget the ancestral training to pass on the martial arts, and then ask the family tree to record the name and end.

In the afternoon, the square was transformed. A small piece of land was vacated in front of it, and a low platform was set up to perform martial arts, and other places were filled with chairs and stools. Compared to the morning, the atmosphere is much more relaxed. In the first three games, no one named Nangong Jin, and seeing how serious the three cousins and nephews were, Nangong Jin also fell easily. I thought that it was over, but who knew that a cousin who was saluting together on the field walked in front of Nangong Jin and saluted, and said loudly: "Nangong Chengqin asks the thirteenth uncle for advice." ”

Nangong Jin smiled, sure enough, there are still people who can't see him being lazy, but, what is there to compare with a sixteen-year-old child? It ends early, and watching others sing is always less labor-saving than singing yourself. On stage, Nangong Jin said with a smile: "The first time we met, Uncle Thirteen asked you to make three moves." ”

Nangong Chengqin was slightly unhappy, although the elders often let them recruit when they took the school examination, but this thirteenth uncle heard that he had never learned family martial arts at all, so why should he let him recruit? However, Nangong Chengqin just thought about it in his heart, didn't say anything, and still made a move according to the courtesy.

Nangong Jin smiled and easily gave up three moves, the fourth move, Nangong Chengqin's right hand was suddenly buckled, his back was behind him, and his whole body froze, I don't know when Nangong Jin was already behind him, patted him on the shoulder and asked with a smile: "Is it still better?" ”

Nangong Chengqin was stunned in his heart, and took advantage of this effort Nangong Jin let go of him and took three steps back. Nangong Chengqin turned around slowly, his eyes revealing grievances and fear. What else is it better than? From beginning to end, he didn't see what kind of kung fu Nangong Jin used.

Nangong Jin was about to step down, but was stopped by another cousin, "Nangong Chengjian, please ask Uncle Thirteen for advice." ”

Nangong Jin nodded and smiled, "Let's make a move, old rules." ”

"Chengjian made the first move, but he didn't want Uncle Thirteen to make a move."

Nangong Jin looked at this cousin, who was afraid that he was not yet sixteen years old, and nodded indifferently, "Okay." ”

Before the words fell, Nangong Chengjian had already made a move, and even the starting hand was saved, which made Nangong Jin impressed. But the result is no different from what it was just now. One move, has buckled the vein, back to the back. It's just that Nangong Jin let go faster than just now, and asked with a smile: "You are very good, you didn't get hurt, right?" ”

Cheng Jian rubbed his shoulders, turned around and looked at Nangong Jin with some grievances, and said weakly: "I thought I could pass at least two moves...... ”

Nangong Jin smiled and said, "When I was sixteen years old, I wasn't as good as you." Have you ever dealt with someone? ”

Cheng Jian blushed and said, "My father is really beaten." Uncle Thirteen, I don't see what moves you use? ”

This question made Nangong Jin speechless for a while, so he could only say with a smile: "Since it is a real fight, the move is not important, the important thing is not to let yourself be injured, and find that you can't run early." ”

Chengjian thought for a moment and nodded, "My dad said the same thing." ”

"Who is your father?"

Cheng Jian turned his head to look at the audience, and a middle-aged man outside the arena nodded with a smile and arched his hand to Nangong Jin. Nangong Jin also saluted. I only listened to Chengjian and said: "My father is ranked fifth in the clan......"

"Thirteenth uncle, Nangong Chengkai asks for advice." Before Cheng Jian finished speaking, a person jumped up in the audience, in his twenties, directly interrupted Cheng Jian, glanced at him and drove him off the stage.

Cheng Jian was a little reluctant, looked at his father outside the court, and saw him nodding, so he had to bow to Nangong Jin and step down.

"You're going to have a competition too?" Nangong Jin was a little curious, according to Nangong Pu's previous statement, generally there will be no unrelated people who take the initiative to challenge, they are all a few rituals, or a certain clan elder will go through the motions for one or two games.

"No, no." Nangong Chengkai squinted his eyes, and didn't take Nangong Jin in his eyes at all.

Offstage, Nangong Dingkang cleared his throat, "Ah Jin, come here." ”

Nangong Chengkai showed a contemptuous expression on his face.

Nangong Jin walked to Nangong Dingkang's side, a little unclear, Nangong Dingkang lowered his voice and said, "He is a side branch of the clan, and he is here to watch the ceremony today." The relationship between the side branch and the family is more delicate, you try to make a few more moves, let a few hands, and give enough face. ”

Nangong Jin frowned and asked, "Let me move?" What if I lose? ”

Nangong Dingkang was stopped by the question for a while, so he had to say: "If you lose, you will lose, and the point will be there." ”

"Understand, it's good if they're happy." Nangong Jin nodded and took the stage again.

Cheng Kai squinted at him again and asked, "Uncle Thirteen, we are also meeting for the first time, do you want Cheng Kai to make three moves?" ”

Nangong Jin smiled and said: "After all, I am an elder, since I said that I want to make three moves, how can I make a mistake." ”

Nangong Chengkai smiled contemptuously, "Thirteenth uncle, don't regret it. The sword doesn't open its eyes, and it will hurt Uncle Thirteen for a while, don't blame me for being a junior. After speaking, someone outside the venue handed over a long sword.

"Weapons?" Nangong Jin frowned. Isn't it the end of the point? How can you listen to him, can it still hurt people? Probably not. Nangong Jin glanced at Nangong Dingkang in the audience, and saw that he lowered his head to drink tea, and didn't care about the things on the field at all.

"Uncle Thirteen, also use a sword?"

Nangong Jin shook his head helplessly, and said with a smile: "I can't see my swordsmanship, so be it." ”

Nangong Chengkai smiled, the long sword slowly came out of the sheath, the sword body seemed to have blood marks, faintly revealing a strong aura, this sword hurt countless people.

"Good sword." Nangong Jin praised.

"Concession." Nangong Cheng raised his eyebrows, and the sword light flashed with a cold air, and this sword was already a straight stab.

Is this the point to the end? Looking at the sword momentum, there is no intention of slowing down at all. Nangong Jin had no choice but to retreat sharply, almost to the edge of the field. The sword momentum of the loss was exhausted, and Nangong Jin avoided it sideways. The first trick made it a little difficult.

In the second move, the long sword swept, and the cold light flashed to seal Nangong Jin's retreat, forcing him to the sidelines again. Nangong Jin flew up, and flashed to the center of the field from the instantaneous gap on the side at an extremely fast speed, although his body was good-looking, but he was cut off by the sword light. Cheng Kai sighed secretly, but it was a pity.

The third move was faster, and the long sword had already passed through the ring in a breath, piercing Nangong Jin's face. Nangong Jin did not retreat but advanced, and his short body opened his right hand with a palm.

"Uncle Thirteen, just let the second move fight back?" Nangong Chengkai scoffed.

"I didn't say that I would give up three moves in a row, and I will pay it back after a while." Nangong Jin said with a smile.

In the next three moves, Nangong Jin almost attacked close to Nangong Cheng's armor, and Nangong Cheng's armor long sword was difficult to attack in close quarters, which was very obstructive, and said coldly: "What?" Uncle Thirteen doesn't want to let it go? ”

Just as he spoke, Nangong Jin directly locked his throat, making Nangong Cheng's armor impossible to hide. "This trick allows you." With all said and done, let go. Taking advantage of the moment he let go, Nangong Cheng took a long sword and forced him out. After that, Nangong Cheng's armored sword momentum changed, and he didn't leave his hand at all, which was actually a way to take people's lives.

Many people in the audience frowned, but seeing that Nangong Dingkang was still calmly drinking tea and not speaking, no one stopped him. Nangong Pu looked at Nangong Dingkang, hesitated for a moment, and finally didn't move.

On the stage, Nangong Jin was also a little angry, the same family has no grievances and no hatred, can you use this? Almost at the same time, the body style is also changed, which is very weird. Nangong Cheng's long sword was only a little bit close to winning every time, but he couldn't touch him.

After a few moves, Nangong Chengkai became impatient. Nangong Jin finally curled the corners of her mouth and said two words softly, "It's over." Nangong Cheng's armor was slightly stunned, and the sword momentum slowed slightly. At this time, there was a strong force, so that his hand holding the sword was involuntarily deviated, and at this time, Nangong Jin held his right hand, and when Nangong Chengkai reacted, Nangong Jin had already held his hand holding the sword and crossed the long sword around his neck.
