Chapter 255: Gambling on Life

"What a boldness!"

Hong Qianqiu strengthened his tone again and repeated. Luo Qing narrowed his eyes and listened to his story. He felt rather ambivalent: on a lonely, cold mountain peak, a half-drunk man pointed at the country, his deep voice seemed to penetrate 20,000 years of distance. The only pity is that there is some irony in the words of the big man: "8,000 swords were repaired, and the soaring sword turned into a rainbow and spanned a long distance of 10,000 miles." Hehe, this is not just a broken halberd and sinking sand, 8,000 top-level sword cultivators can escape back to the east bank of Mogu and save one. Even these hundreds of people, more than half of them did not come back from Yandong, they just stayed in the broken mountains, went to our door to find a piece of land, and locked up there......"

"Hey, you can't be so mean!"

Li Youmeng knocked on the wine jug in his hand with a displeased face: "What does it mean to flee back, and what does it mean to come back without face?" Expedition to the boundless Buddha country, with 8,000 swords to hundreds of millions of Buddha soldiers, bloody battles for 100 days, the glazed pure land turned into a nose hell, and in the end, if it weren't for Buddhism's luck, at the cost of the extinction of thirteen ancient Buddhas, breaking the "six reincarnations", derived from three thousand worlds, from seventeen sword immortals to eternal degenerates... Can they win?

"Even if this was a failure, only one of the seniors of the Yuan Dao had already broken and killed in all directions with Huang Xuan's sword in hand and made changes. All the gods, Buddhas, bodhisattvas and arhats were intimidated. They are still proud of their failures, so to speak!"

Hong Qianqiu snorted heavily: "The original road was robbed, and it died shortly after it returned to the east. How do you explain it?"

"That's because ......"

"Uh, two brothers!"

20,000 years ago, due to the dispute between the ancients, Hong and Li Eryao's faces turned red, and Luo Qing had to interrupt their dispute, scratched his head, and asked, "Where was the sword put away and buried in the sword garden?"

Hong and Li Er glanced at each other fiercely. In the end, Hong Qianqiu replied: "Almost all of these people were injured and suffocated to death during the Western Expedition. They were lifeless and died soon after. The sect sympathized with his suffering and did not reclaim the land. They made only minor repairs and built a cemetery for the people to pay their respects. Of course, this is no ordinary cemetery. ”

Li You then said Hong Qianqiu's words: "You know, at the beginning, 8,000 Western swordsmanship trainings almost exhausted the elites of the Eastern spiritual world, with 19 top swordsmen and nearly 50 hijackers, as well as hundreds of real people and monks. For the next 20,000 years, the spirit world will never be able to organize such a large team. Even though the western expedition was unfavorable, they retreated to the east bank and were buried in the Sword Garden. There are also two master swordsmen, 15 hijackers, several real people and the Busch brothers. The legacy of these predecessors, hey, must be great......"

Luo Wuqing: "Steal the grave and dig the grave!"

"Poof", Hong Qianqiu's face was full of flowers and sprayed at Li You opposite. He must have done it on purpose. Otherwise, how could he express his joyous mood?

Li You reacted strangely, wiped off the wine stains with a straight face, and still talked to Luo Qing: "Brother Yu, Jianyuan is not as simple as you think. As for what's going on inside, wait a minute... Lao Hong, your mother's death!"

At this moment, Li You drew his sword and slashed it. The sword flew up like a wave, tearing the soft moonlight to shreds. Hong Qianqiu's eyes lit up like fire. He laughed out loud and said, "I've been waiting for you!"

Face to face with the sword, he didn't flinch, and a black light rose from the outside, and the shock wave was intense, and the waves produced could be hundreds of feet away. At this time, his strong body, nine feet away, seemed to have expanded in a circle. His hand was a black tide, surging with the sound of the tsunami, drowning over.

In the middle of the confrontation between the two, Luo Qing turned over neatly, avoiding a distance of ten feet, and the wind in the middle of the battle circle blew again. The flask on the ground over there was blown straight out of the cliff. Luo Qing knew that this place couldn't be left!

"Brother Li, I'll wait for you at Sister Meng's house."

"Go, go, I've solved Lao Hong'......"

Hong couldn't tolerate him going on, and a series of violent attacks forced him to stuff the second half of his speech back into his stomach. Li You was very angry and raised his sword in a tooth-for-tat manner. The light of his sword illuminated half of the mountain.

Luo Qing kept a silent smile, no longer cared about the two people, and left the peak by himself. When he descended to the top of the mountain, the night sky suddenly lit up. Looking back, the two men were already flying in mid-air. In the bright moonlight, they had a great time.

※※

Under the sunset, Luo Qing walked alone. Suddenly, I heard a voice shouting, "Luo Qing is in front of me!"

"That's right"

"I've heard you say that there are several aspects to the Sword Sacrifice Card. Today I'm going to compete with you to win this card!"

Luo Qing stopped and looked back. From that day on, Luo Qing's life became more and more busy. Especially after the news that he had a "sword offering card" came to his door, it wasn't just a steady stream of people from the experience department who took the card from the sword.

These monks are men, women, and children. The only thing that is the same is that they all use swords, whether in close combat or flying swords to cut through the air. Each of them has good attainments.

This is exactly the rule of the demonstration department: those who want to participate in the Sword Garden Festival should be above the level of the gods, below the level of emptiness, have been practicing swords for many years, and have a certain level of attainment. In addition, there must be at least one sacrificial sword card in hand, and a total of 10 cards will be issued. There are more than 200 monks in the experience department who meet such conditions!

The fierce competition is obvious.

According to the rules, if someone challenges him, he is not allowed to refuse without sufficient reason. Luo Qing didn't even think about refusing. He was about to say yes when someone was already working against him. "Hey, brother, it's not enough to bully the small. Do you want to take turns fighting? When didn't our demo department get to this point?"

"What do you mean!"

Passers-by were really confused when they saw the challenger, and they also giggled: "Senior brother, you are so ignorant. Didn't you hear that the day before yesterday, Brother Zhang Zhangyan had sent a letter of battle to Senior Brother Yu, swearing to gamble with a sword card, using a sword to judge the victory or defeat, counting the days, it was tonight!"

"Brother Zhang Yan, bad bet?"

The reckless challenger was stunned: "No, isn't that a big bully?"

No wonder the challengers were surprised. You know, in the empirical department, although Brother Zhang Yan is not as dazzling as Yu Minhong, Li Hong, Wang Jiu and Hong Qianqiu last week, he is not as talented as Li You, who is lagging behind, and even suffers from gambling problems, so his grades have been stagnant for many years. But no matter what, that one is still a cardinal, a decent monk Dan, a veritable senior elder, how could he go to Luo Qing's disciple in this room for a swordsmanship competition regardless of face?

You know, there are also about 40 monk Dan in the demonstration department, and only 15 of them are practicing swords. Of these 15 disciples, there are three generations of disciples like Yu Zhou, who are not usually involved. Those who really wanted to go to the Sword Garden, that is, several fourth-generation disciples, were playing with all their might, but there were only five. Of the ten swords, five must be specially prepared for them. Zhang Yan is one of them.

In this way, this person should have no desires and nothing to ask for, but it happened that he was serious about a disciple in the outer world. Is it dignified?

"That's it. The other younger brother, Yu Minhong, just wanted to save his strength. Why are you fooling around?"

The reckless challenger does have a face and can only leave in frustration. Luo Qing smiled and thanked his brother who fought for him. But he grinned and patted him on the shoulder. "I've seen a bad bet for a long time. I weighed you a kilogram of black iron. I bet on an only child. My brother needs help!"

Luo was speechless.

In fact, even he didn't know why Brother Zhang Yan, who had a bad reputation, chose him. However, as the Sword Garden Gala approached, Luo Qing would not miss this opportunity no matter what.

That night, Li You and Hong Qianqiu were busy fighting, and only half of them said a word. However, Luo Qing turned around and asked Meng Wei, and finally told the whole story clearly.

The so-called "Sword Garden" meeting, in its original sense, was supposed to be on a specific day, entering the Sword Garden, where the elders buried their bones, to pay respects. However, with the development of tens of thousands of years, its meaning has changed a lot, and it has become a grand event for all swordsmen looking for opportunities.

In the Sword Garden, not only are the immortal bones of the predecessors buried, but also hundreds of sword scriptures of different styles and high quality have long been lost. In addition, legend has it that in the gloomy cemetery, the minds left behind by those who possess great magical powers are transformed into immortal souls. During the wanderings, once you are moved, you will have hundreds of years of kendo enlightenment and integration into yourself, which can save a hundred years of cultivation time.

Such a temptation, as long as you are determined to practice kendo, how can you refuse?

I love this kind of foreign thing that I don't value, and I yearn for it.

The overview of the dream is very precise: it depends on a person's position in the family, the approval of the elders, and the good or bad behavior of a person, and in small meetings about the composition you can see everything at a glance. However, in order to confirm the results, test intentions, and self-test criteria, at this stage, it is necessary to hold a grand meeting in the Sword Garden.

How could Luo Canqing miss such a wonderful scene? The sword mist swept behind him, and there was a long thing caged inside, and when the fog flowed, the thing in the sky was just a colorful snake, its skin was as hard as fine steel, and with the help of a lightsaber, it could not be damaged, but the sword aura of the half-mirage was subtle, and its internal organs had already turned into dust, and the snake fell to the ground at this time, and died immediately.
