18. All kinds of tangles

The Central Plains Martial Arts Conference, the so-called Heroes Conference, was held for the first time.

Originally, Lei Ye wanted to adopt the rules of the Jianghu Conference and use the lottery to determine the order of the parties.

But this is too old-fashioned, and when he first decided to hold this martial arts event, Lei Ye was not sure how many sects would come.

If not many people participate, but still use this lottery system, it will be a humiliation for yourself.

Therefore, under Shen Qiu's "enthusiastic" suggestion, Lei Ye, Lang Monk, and Zhang Tugou adopted a new model after repeated discussions.

They are very bold and separate the people in the sect from the scattered people in the rivers and lakes.

In the opening game on the first day, the Jianghu guests who could defend more than ten people in the three rings in Luoyang were selected, and then the lottery was drawn.

Then, according to the number of sects that came to participate in the Heroes Club, the disciples of the sects were also added to it as appropriate.

At present, there are more than one hundred and fifty sects of all sizes participating in the Hero Club, not counting the people in the Western Regions who suddenly withdrew from the competition a few days ago.

In this way, Lei Ye doesn't have to worry about the problem of no one cheering.

Of course, time is limited, and for the sake of efficiency, in the opening game, there was no time-wasting mode of best-of-three games, and everyone won or lost in one battle.

According to the original plan, the hero would last no more than seven days.

It is necessary to set aside the last two days for the seniors and masters to compete, so the performance for the younger generation is only the first five days.

Moreover, the disciples of the high-ranking sects, the overall quality is above the Jianghu scattered people.

Therefore, in order to ensure ornamentation and fairness, a small number of high-ranking disciples are added to the daily confrontation.

Its overall competition system is completely copied from the competition system in Shen Qiu's hometown, what sixty-four into thirty-two and the like, there are still ten "seeded players" to be retained.

In this way, it not only gives enough face to the high-ranking faction, but also allows the Jianghu scattered people to have more dazzling performances, which can be regarded as a balance between the two.

Everyone was satisfied.

Of course, there are also people who are not satisfied.

"Isn't it?"

Yi Sheng was wearing the black uniform of the Heluo Gang, and in order to perform brilliantly in today's opening game, he also specially trimmed his hair to make himself as handsome and chic as possible.

This is the fourth opener.

In the first three games, the players of the Heluo Gang dealt with the Jianghu Sanren, Li Baoguo, Li Yijian, and Zhang Xiaohu, all of whom defeated their opponents with beautiful moves and won the ticket to the next round.

Heluo Gang's fourth-seeded player is easy to win, and he feels that he has a good chance of winning.

But when he appeared with the long sword, in the midst of everyone's cheers, he saw a skinny little guy walking out of the venue on the side of the Jade Palace.

This shocked Yi Sheng's heart, and he secretly complained to himself.

I'm really unlucky.

actually drew a disciple of Gaomen, and the group of people from the Jade Emperor Palace came to Luoyang, so they were very low-key, because they were all people from outside the square, and they didn't hang out in Luoyang, and they practiced martial arts in the courtyard every day.

Outsiders don't know much about the strength of the Jade Emperor Palace's disciples, but according to the information Yi Sheng collected privately, the people sent by the Jade Palace to participate in the Hero Meeting this time are all elite figures who won in the sect's small competition.

Although Yi Sheng has also been experienced, and his own Yi family fast sword has also entered the house, but in the face of the elite of the high gate, he does not dare to hold it up.

"Bell"

A gong sounded, and the two fought against each other in the ring, drew the unedged sword in their hands, and made a salute to each other.

The person on the other side was very thin, a head lower than Yi Sheng, and he looked a little unattractive, but his eyes were very bright, and he posed in the starting style of Taiyue's swordsmanship.

Zhongzheng is peaceful, just like Mount Tai, very stable.

Yi Sheng's starting hand was the killing move of the Yi family's fast sword, and six consecutive swords stabbed at the thin Taoist priest in front of him, the cold light flashed, and the sword shadow could hardly be seen.

But the latter was unhurried, swinging the long sword in his hand into an arc, and easily blocked it.

Yi Sheng's heart sank.

Rival!

I really hit my head on the iron plate.

But he didn't admit defeat.

Li Yijian's roar in the audience was endless, Zhang Xiaohu was also cheering for him, and his own brothers were watching!

Even if you lose.

It's also going to be a good loss.

Thinking of this, Yi Sheng's heart swelled with a sense of fighting intent, the thunder in his body exploded, and there was a hot flow in his limbs, making him move his sword three points faster.

But the Taoist priest of the Jade Palace in front of him was still unhurried and calmly.

"He is strong, he is strong, and the breeze blows on the hills."

In the audience, in the seats of the scattered people in the rivers and lakes, Shen Qiu, who was wearing a hat, shook his head and said casually to the sleepy Xiao Tie beside him:

"Yi Sheng, this is a little anxious, his luck is too bad, that thin Taoist priest should be the leader of the younger generation in the Jade Emperor Palace, Xiao Tie, we seemed to see him in the Jade Emperor Palace last time, what is his name?"

Xiao Tie was awakened by his eldest brother's question.

He opened his eyes and glanced at the ring, the three fights just now, the others watched and shouted, but it made Xiao Tie almost fall asleep with boredom.

He practiced the dragon and tiger battle qi, and took the way of mad battle, and he was really not interested in this kind of soft exchange.

"Oh, that skinny monkey, I remember."

Xiao Tie took a closer look and said to Shen Qiu:

"His name is Xiao Lingsu, he is a disciple of Chonghe Daochang, the first place in the Jade Emperor Palace, Chonghe Daochang said that his Taiyue swordsmanship has entered the realm of perfection.

It's really hard to win against him with a small victory. ”

As he spoke, he continued to attack, and his swordsmanship was extremely fast, and the continuous offensive in Yi Sheng's hand, which attracted everyone's exclamations, was like a stream of water that was suddenly cut off.

In the Jade Emperor Palace, Xiao Lingsu's sudden counterattack, was cut off by a sword.

He was slapped on the wrist with a sword, causing the sword to come out of his hand.

"Lost."

Shen Qiu pursed his lips and said:

"Yi Sheng is lost in the swordsmanship itself, and the Yi family's fast sword is really not a good martial art. When it comes to actual combat experience, Xiao Lingsu has not seen more than him. ”

"Hehe, why don't you just give Xiaosheng a good swordsmanship?"

Xiao Tie chuckled and said:

"Anyway, the old man in Guanzhong, He Wangchuan, doesn't promise anymore."

"The law should not be passed on lightly, it's not that I cherish myself, but I'm afraid that if I give too much, it will bring trouble to him."

Shen Qiu knew that Xiao Tie was making fun of him, so he shrugged his shoulders and said:

"But there are promises.

That's it, after this thing is over, he will be allowed a swordsmanship, Yijian has a family to care about, Jianghu Dream is afraid that he will not be able to go on, this Zhang Xiaohu and Yi Sheng, just continue to walk for him. ”

There were people in the audience who were discussing, and there were people on the stage who exchanged heads.

On the main seat, several elders were also whispering, commenting on the young man's martial arts from time to time, and if they met their own disciples, they would inevitably boast about it.

And seeing that his disciples won this game easily, and they were applauded by the whole house, Chong and Lao Dao also smiled, brushing the dust while touching their beards.

Seeing that the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance had been silent, he asked softly:

"The alliance leader has never liked to promote the backwards, why is he so silent this time? Do you think that these young people are slightly inferior in martial arts? ”

Ren Hao, who was thinking about things, was interrupted by this question.

He laughed, and said to Hedge and Lao Dao:

"Where is the Taoist chief, these young people, all of them fought in the ring in the city, and those who can come to the stage have been carefully selected. Although there are still flaws in martial arts, they all have their own strengths.

In time, these young people will be the backbone of our generation of martial arts.

I was very satisfied. ”

Ren Hao Daxia held the armrest of the chair with both hands, and looked at the ring in front of him, the fifth battle had begun, and Wei Changbo, the eldest disciple of the Nanhai faction, saw the warrior monks of Nirvana Temple.

One with a sword, the other with a battle.

As soon as the two sides moved, it was thunder and fire, and when the true qi was full, the figures of the two moved in the ring, but there was some momentum.

"Both of these are good."

Ren Hao nodded, looking quite satisfied.

But when it comes to martial arts, as soon as the two sides fight, Ren Hao has already distinguished that the disciple of the South China Sea is impetuous, while the Nirvana warrior monk is calm and resolute.

Within ten moves, there will be results.

And hearing that the martial arts alliance leader commented that his disciple was good, the Nanhai elder who was sitting at the end of the main seat also had a smug face, and seemed to be quite satisfied.

Ren Hao commented, and fell silent again.

Although his eyes were looking at the ring, his eyes were observing the dozen or so people around him.

Lei Lie and Zhang Tugou, definitely not.

Chonghe Dao Chang and Lin Yundong are in charge, and it is basically impossible.

The leader of the Nirvana Temple is the master of mustard seeds.

That master doesn't like to make noise, he didn't come to the scene today, and he can't.

In other words, if that evil demon really changed his appearance and sneaked into Luoyang for many days, waiting for an opportunity to ambush and kill a decent master, then it is very likely that he will be among the remaining few people.

After a few breaths, the ring was decided.

The long sword in the hand of the senior brother of the South China Sea Sword Sect was knocked out by the Nirvana warrior monk with a stick, and the little monk was polite, and after knocking out the weapon, he retreated a few steps, but Wei Changbo was unwilling.

The heart is still almost.

The Alliance Leader's eyes narrowed, and his attention was locked on Elder Nanhai, whose face sank like water, as if he was not satisfied with the result.

But just by appearance, you can't tell the real from the fake.

On weekdays, Ren Hao does not have much intersection with the South China Sea Sword Sect.

What's more, the evil guy, the disguise, the hidden shadow assassination, is the first in the world, if you don't do it, even if it is close contact, it will not be exposed.

"Have you ever heard an interesting story?"

Just when Ren Hao was thinking about it, Lin Yundong, who was sitting next to him, took the initiative to speak and said something.

She said:

"A few days ago, in Luoyang City, there was a mysterious old man, who called himself the old man of Guanzhong, He Wangchuan, known as a thousand opportunities, guarding in the ring, and did not stop until the seventh day of July.

That person is said to be good at martial arts in the world, and no matter what kind of martial arts the challenger challenges, he has a solution to it.

The disciple of my sect also said that that person is a master of our generation.

But I've never heard of his name, that person should be a master in the top of the list, but he has no reputation in the rivers and lakes, and he hasn't appeared at today's martial arts conference.

Have you heard of the alliance leader? ”

"There are so many strange people in the world."

Ren Hao chuckled and said to Lin Yundong:

"I haven't heard of it, probably a certain calm personality of the rivers and lakes, come out and play with the juniors, but, if the head of Lin said, that person is good at all kinds of martial arts in the world...

It reminds me of an old man. ”

As soon as the alliance leader said this, Lin Yundong's expression immediately changed.

Of course she knew who Ren Hao was talking about.

It was pretty much the biggest nightmare of her life.

"What does the alliance leader mean, then He Lichuan, has something to do with that person?"

Lin Yundong became murderous.

This change caused the surrounding masters to look sideways for a while, Ren Hao's gaze turned around on the others, but he still failed to find the clue, he said noncommittally:

"Not really, it's just a feeling.

Next is the Xiaoxiang disciple who appeared, and the opponent... Hmm, the opponent is the Lion Xiangmen, this Jiangxi sect, I haven't heard the news for ten years, right? ”

"Yes."

Chong and Lao Dao said with a surprised face:

"Since the ninth year of Zhengding, because the master of the Lion Xiangmen was drunk and said some bad things to the messenger of Mrs. Tongtang, which caused it to be slaughtered by the Witch Gu Dao Gu Master, it has indeed been unheard of for more than ten years.

Is it still alive?

When did those Gu masters change their temperament and let the inheritance that had provoked them resurgent? ”

"This alliance leader and Chonghe Dao Leader don't know."

On the left side of the main seat, Dongfang Ce, who represented the Pure Yang Sect, explained softly to the elders:

"It's not the resurgence of the Lion Xiangmen, it's the lucky people of Jiangxi who dug up the secret treasure of the Lion Xiangmen, and then they got the inheritance of the 'Lion Xiangmen'.

It is said that the man still dug up to the tomb of the ancestor of the Shixiangmen hundreds of years ago. ”

"Huh?"

Ren Hao's eyes changed.

He pondered for a moment and said:

"In this way, since February this year, all kinds of news about the severance of inheritance and re-discovery in various parts of the rivers and lakes seem to be very frequent, at least I know, there have been seven or eight cases.

It's like a secret treasure left by those ancient sages, and it exploded. ”

Speaking of this, a lightning-like thought suddenly flashed in the heart of the alliance leader, and his eyes turned sharply, swept over the crowd, and stopped in the seats of the scattered people in the rivers and lakes, and landed on Shen Qiu, who was closing his eyes and recuperating.

The latter was practicing martial arts with the phantom in the sword jade illusion dream, and suddenly felt a burst of staring, so he opened his eyes, and saw that on the main seat, the alliance leader was laughing and talking with other masters.

"Strange, is it an illusion?"

Shen Qiu whispered, and after noticing that there was no difference, he entered the dream again.

There are a lot of phantoms accumulated over the years, and Shen Qiu needs time to destroy them one by one, and by the way, he will have more moves in his martial arts arsenal.

It's a pity that there is no killing with hands, most of them are some residual tricks, which can be used to understand experience, but to improve martial arts, it is not enough.

After he closed his eyes again, Ren Hao's gaze turned again, he stared at Shen Qiu, recalling some old things he had said when he chatted with Zhang Moxie back then.

and after the Suzhou War, Daoist Ziwei said for him.

"Could this be a sign of a great change in heaven and earth?"

Ren Hao rubbed his fingers and said in his heart:

"Zhang Moxie told me that the big changes will come in a few decades, but Brother Ziwei said that after more than ten years, but... It won't come so soon, will it?

Does this matter have anything to do with the jade in Shen Qiu's hand? ”
