Chapter 21: Capture the Clouds
It has been six or seven days since he was led into the palace by the third prince, and there has been no news, so Yu Wenwen and other Kunlun disciples went out to spy every day, but they didn't gain much.
On this day the people were gathered together again.
"The three princes seem to be very concerned about the 'Cloud Capture Test' recently, and they have personally gone to the Chaju Division several times. ”
"What kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of this third prince?" Yu Wen frowned, turned his head and asked a few other disciples, "Has the source been found?"
"We followed that guy Jin Zhu and found that he had privately received a lot of benefits from Yuan Yifeng. Although no definite evidence has been found, the news is very likely to come from Yuan Yifeng. ”
"Yuan Yifeng?" As soon as this Yuan Yifeng was mentioned, everyone seemed to have heard of it, and they talked nonsense.
"I heard that the shopkeeper of the trading house is Qi Wuxian, the richest man in the Yuanyang Empire. ”
"The reason why Qi Wuxian can become the richest man in the empire is only because he has a good sister who is the imperial concubine. ”
"Now that Concubine Jiao is favored by the Sixth Palace, Emperor Yuanyang is only afraid that he is the biggest customer of this firm, and with such a support, it is difficult to make money. ”
"By the way, the third prince was born to this concubine, and Qi Wuxian, who had news with him, was his own uncle. The older disciple reminded Yu to ask.
"What do you mean, Qi Wuxian used this Yingxie to exchange news with the palace, maybe for business?"
"Well, there should be a lot of inadequacy in the business of the heavenly family. ”
"This needs to be confirmed. Yu Wenwen suddenly remembered something and asked, "Who is the main examiner of this year's 'Cloud Capture Test'?"
"For a long time, this 'Cloud Capture Test' has been to deliver talents to Na Yun Master, and the main test is naturally Na Yun Jun Ji Ya Sun. ”
"Ji Ya Sun ......" Yu asked and pondered for a moment, "How many days is there left for the half-final?"
"Three days. ”
"Okay, I'll wait until the time comes, I'll go to this 'Cloud Capture Test' to open my eyes. ”
When the disciples left, Yu Wen privately called the two junior disciples: "What about her?"
"I've been to the Yunlai Inn a few times, but I haven't found any news. In the past few days, I have just walked around, and there is nothing abnormal. ”
"Grandpa, look!"
Abandon the power of the primordial spirit, and the "bend" rushed out of the gourd and turned into a small hill of several zhang in size.
"Break!" shouted abandoned. "Turning" let out a bull's roar in mid-air, and suddenly turned into a black muddy mist and shot towards the old man like a mud python.
"'Turn', what are you going to do?" exclaimed, he never expected that this "turn" would take the opportunity to challenge the old man.
"Well, okay...... The old man hadn't moved his muscles and bones for a long time. The old man stared at the turbid mist with a smile, and when it arrived in front of him, he suddenly raised the small knife with a jade handle and a golden body to "make up for the mistakes of the sky".
"You old loach who killed a thousand knives, where did you get this......" Seeing that the black mist was about to hit the knife, he bowed his head stiffly, and "bang" pierced into the ground in front of the old man, as if he was very afraid of the knife.
"Stinky mud, are you scared? haha...... Again. Before the old man could finish speaking, a black mist rose from the soles of his feet, engulfing him.
"Wow, it stinks, it stinks...... Phew, it's different for you. I didn't see how the old man moved, but he had already escaped from the black fog, and covered his nose with his hands while quenching his saliva, "If you want to come again, I will ask this abandoned little devil to drive you out of the gourd, and see where you go?"
The black mist "swished" back into the gourd, and seemed to be very jealous of the old man's words.
"Old loach, if you have the ability, don't scare me with that broken knife and this gourd, we have a fair duel. "Turning" is stubborn.
"Haha, stinky mud, you know that the old man is trapped in this bird place now and can't come up with a means, but you want to have a fair duel. When the old man snatched your job, why didn't you show up?"
"Old loach, you ......"
"'Turn', shut up!" This "turn" is very strong, but he doesn't listen to the tune, and he is quite distressed.
"Abandon the little ghost, do you know that this stick around your waist is the nemesis of the stinky mud? ”
Remembering the fact that "one" was patted lightly and "turned" and shut up immediately, it suddenly became clear.
"Grandpa, I'll show you again. ”
The black mist rushed out of the gourd, and three huge roots grew in mid-air. Abandon the black mist, only control the roots with his mind, and the black mist moves like a shadow following the roots. It turns out that the "one" supernatural power needs land, but now this "turn" is precisely a ubiquitous land, and it is only good to be optimistic about the "one", and the "one" will control this "turn". The magic power of "one" and "bending" is fused, and the power increases several times. The black mist is like an oolong with teeth and claws, with the momentum of devouring the sky and the earth.
"Yes, abandon the little ghost! The old man smiled, "According to what you say, you should have entered the 'middle stream' realm of cultivation, although there is still some distance from that Ji Yasun, but it is not completely invincible. ”
Listening to what the old man said, he was very surprised. The most difficult part of the path of cultivation is the "breaking realm". If you don't follow the law, it's not uncommon for your cultivation to advance and retreat, or even destroy it overnight. It is incredible that I have unconsciously stepped into this "middle" realm from the "first crossing".
Urging the Yuan Miao, I found that it was really very different from before, the power of the Yuan Shen recovery had become a surge, and it took even more time to recover all of them. The heart is clear, the breath in the sea of qi is condensed, the strength in the muscles and bones is coiled, and the body seems to be surrounded by invisible brilliance. After coming to this cave for just a few days, his own cultivation has improved so much, and he is very happy.
"Grandpa, thank you!" Knowing that this was all thanks to the old man, his childlike heart was overflowing, so he hugged the old man and kissed him.
"Ouch, my old waist ......"
For the next two days, the old man was not allowed to give up and re-enter the Dao cultivation, and only dragged him to chat with him.
"Abandon the little ghost, when you entered this cave, Grandpa said that if you have anything you want to ask, you can ask, but now you still want to ask?"
After thinking about it, "Grandpa, I'm afraid that what I want to ask will make you unhappy." ”
"Haha, it's all over, and I'm so unhappy. You still want to ask 'Little Three'. ”
"Hmm. ”
"I have treated him as I have done to you. ”
"This ......"
"I also planned to give it away, but I didn't have anything to do with him. ”
"Why is that?"
"Like you, I took out three treasures for him to choose, and he picked his favorite 'Jade Fuyao'. Later, when I told me about the beauty of this bead, I wanted to replace it, but I didn't agree. I don't know that he actually sneaked into this scarcity and took the book with him. It's just that for some reason he didn't take it with him. ”
"Cloud Capture Trial" is a major event in the Yuanyang cultivation world, the world's rookies are all gathered here, among which there are many peerless masters, Ji Yasun and Yi Hanshan all became famous in this "Cloud Capture Trial".
It was almost the height of summer, and a round of daylight and stones flowed gold, but as soon as I entered the school, I suddenly felt shady.
I saw a plain moire banner with gold wire piping, the size of two city towers. There is a huge word "grab" on the flag, I don't know who wrote it, but I feel that the rhyme is vivid, and the pen actually hides the spirit of war. The banner is designed according to the principle of paper kite, the four corners are fixed with the thick and thin leather rope of the bowl mouth, and it is held in the wind, and there is a huge "rumbling" sound in mid-air, such as the galloping of thousands of horses in the ground agitated, and like the thunder rolling in the sky covered by dark clouds, which makes people's blood veins open and awe-inspiring.
The stands were already crowded with people, but they were not noisy, and everyone's eyes were focused on the stage in front of them.
It turned out that the half-duel had already begun, and Yu Wenwen and the Kunlun disciples hurriedly looked for a place to sit down.
The showdown on the stage is between a pale man and a petite woman.
The big man's eyebrows were sparse, but his eyes were half-closed, and he was on his upper body. The muscles on his body are knotted, and his complexion is frighteningly white, as if all the blood vessels under the skin can be seen, and the whole body is faintly blue and purple. The blade used is also very strange, it is actually a long building, the color of the building is old, covered with green embroidery, it seems to be cast in copper. He sat on the ground, resting only on his shoulders, pressing the strings with his left hand and striking it with a copper plate with his right. Natsuki made a strange sound like a frog's chirping, and when they heard this, everyone in the audience looked bored.
Look at the woman again, but she is twelve points on guard. A pair of Danfeng eyes were round and round, and the soles of their feet were non-stop, wandering around the big man like a bird to observe. Look at the woman's dress, combing a high bun and wearing red flowers, wearing a wide-sleeved cardigan embroidered blouse, a black pleated apron underneath, and a half-moon silver lock on her chest beating with her footsteps, she is actually a handsome and pretty Miaojiang woman. What she used was a very ordinary-looking straight-edged short knife, with a notched blade, which seemed to be used for daily chopping.
Yu asked but heard that there is a method of smelting steel in the ancient village of Miaojiang that has been passed down through the ages, which is specially designed to forge the magic weapon of cutting gold and breaking jade. A knife has been forged for more than ten years, and on the day of forging, it is sacrificed to an ox. The person who sacrificed the knife slashed in the air, the head of the ox fell to the ground, and the cow did not know it, and the ox body walked forward dozens of steps and hit the tree and fell. But I don't know if it's an artifact in the woman's hand.
The black and white, one big and one small, held each other for half a stick of incense, and the woman made a move. I saw her face deceiving her, the short knife danced, and several blue sword flowers flew out, and there was a rustling sound in the knife flowers.
The big man frowned, and the sound of the building was loud, and there seemed to be thousands of giant frogs singing in unison, and the knife flower was still in the air, which had been shattered by the sound of the building, and the sound of the rustling was also swallowed by the sound of the frog. Those who were close could see it clearly, and what was hidden in the knife flower was actually thousands of poisonous insects flying out of the woman's sleeves. When everyone's eyes were on the big man, the woman disappeared.
"It's a good time!" he didn't see the big man move, but he had already turned around in place. I saw that he stretched out his hand to press the strings, and grabbed it into the void, and there was an extra short knife in his hand. At this time, everyone found out that the big man was actually wearing a dark golden glove in his left hand, and the short knife was in his hand, and the glove emitted a trace of white smoke. Dahan grabbed the short knife, and his right hand Changzhu quickly sent it forward, and there was a loud bang in the air, and Dahan withdrew his knife, retreating three feet out of thin air, and the blue and purple on his body became deeper and deeper. A cloud of smoke rose, and the petite woman appeared, rubbing back four or five steps, her face crimson, and the silver lock on her chest trembled.
This woman has a strange body and is good at using poison, but the big man seems to be her nemesis. The fact that the Great Han is so pale is due to the fact that he has practiced in a special environment and has not seen the light of day for a long time. In this way, his dependence on his eyesight is very low, but the power of mental sensing is extremely strong, and the woman's body is dizzying and fascinated, but it has no effect on him at all.
The sound of the frog chirping in the building was extremely unpleasant, but it was prompted by the power of the strong primordial spirit, which seemed to have natural restraint on this woman's strange poison. The short knife in the woman's hand looks ordinary, but it is actually extremely sharp and quenched with strange poison, and the man dares to use a glove to connect it, which shows that this glove is also a strange thing. With such a petite figure of a woman, she was able to force the big man back against the big man head-on, and this cultivation is really not low. Yu Wenwen couldn't help but be secretly surprised in his heart.
The woman missed a blow, and her fighting spirit was even hotter, and the short knife broke through the air and went straight to the door of the big man. The short knife seemed to have spirituality, and it turned into three phantoms in the air, each with several clusters of knife flowers, and the knife flowers made a sound, covering the sky and the earth, and wrapping the big man in it.
The big man snorted and sneered, his posture remained unchanged, and the long building swung downward, supporting his body to fly in the air like a spinning top, swishing in the air, and the copper plate under his hand slammed, and the building made a croaking sound wave, and the middle actually brought out the phantom of the giant frog. The sound waves gathered into a huge golden sphere, and the sphere slowly expanded, crushing all the swords and flowers, and it seemed to engulf the woman altogether. The board was pressed by the huge force of the sound wave, making a "squeak" sound, as if it was about to collapse, and the onlookers were frightened, trembling, and did not dare to sweat.
The woman suddenly had something more in her hand, threw it into the air, and screamed: "Go!"
It was the half-moon-shaped silver lock. However, this lock did not fly to the big man, but to the big flag of "grabbing" in mid-air.
"Ahh
