In the blink of an eye, it is almost the end of June, and there are only a few days left before the martial arts conference starts.

The last group of Jianghu guests who came from afar have also arrived in Luoyang, and the Jade Emperor Palace Chonghe Daochang, the mustard seed monk of Nirvana Temple, and the Dongfang Ce of the Pure Yang Sect have all arrived.

In the end, it was the representative of Xiaoxiang Sword Gate.

Xiaoxiang Jianmen is in the closed mountain, this Luoyang Martial Arts Conference, they didn't plan to participate, but later heard that the five major sects of the decent sect have sent young disciples to come, and the Jianmen also sent people to participate.

It's just that their disciples came early, but the representatives came late.

And it was not Lin Huiyin, the acting head of the Sword Gate, who came here, but Lin Yundong, the former head of the nominally stepped down, I heard that it was because Lin Huiyin's internal skills had reached a bottleneck and he was in retreat at Dongting Lake.

This made Shen Qiu a little regretful.

Since the First World War in Suzhou, he hasn't seen Lin Huiyin for a long time.

But that's fine.

Shen Qiu, who is still busy in the province, has no skills, he will already be famous, and he is in the east of the city, since he defeated Li Baoguo, the first person on the list, there are challengers every day.

Most of them don't report that they hope to win, but I heard that every time the old man in this level breaks through, he will casually point out one or two.

They came for the pointer.

There are also a handful, just to join in the fun, and it has caused a lot of trouble for Shen Qiu.

For example, Dongfang Ce, a seven-cut swordsman who likes to join in the fun, came to make a scene.

Shen Qiu couldn't expose his martial arts, so he used the Fulong Knife and the Rakshasa Blood Knife to entangle him with dozens of moves.

Dongfang Ce seemed to have finally noticed Shen Qiu's identity, so he took the initiative to retreat.

and Yang Fu.

The Qilu man, who loves knives, is bold, and also likes to meddle in things, also came to challenge, Shen Qiu moved the knife intent and the autumn wind knife, which narrowly won a few points.

This also made He Lichuan's fame more and more famous.

Many people in the rivers and lakes speculate that this person is a master of the previous generation of rivers and lakes, and he has not been in the rivers and lakes for many years, and this time he went out of the mountain to try the younger generations of the world's martial arts.

There are also outrageous rumors that the old man in Guanzhong, He Wangchuan, came to Luoyang this time to find a disciple to inherit the mantle.

I don't know how this rumor came out, after losing a lot of battles in the past few days, the guy who wants to apprentice makes Shen Qiu tired of it.

Shen Qiu knew that there were many real masters in Luoyang City.

They just don't participate in this ring, and they only wait for the seventh day of the seventh month of July and the martial arts conference to begin, so they want to show their skills.

Today, there is a no-fight card hanging in the ring.

He Lichuan also has to rest, and people can't rotate continuously.

But the ring in the east of the city is still full of people, and Li Yijian, the son of a wealthy man in Luoyang City, is guarding it.

He has already lost seven in a row, and this afternoon, he is expected to achieve the feat of breaking ten in a row.

"He's very happy, pure, just enjoying the atmosphere."

In a restaurant box opposite the ring in the east of the city, Shen Qiu stood by the window, watching the dragon fight in the ring, Qingqing and Xiao Tie stood by the window next to them, shouting and cheering for Li Yijian.

Of course, the rammer can't be heard.

"This son of the Li family is really interesting, his family background, others can't ask for it, but he is dedicated to the rivers and lakes."

At the table in the box, the veiled Yaoqin gently plucked the strings, and just finished playing a song, which made her feel good.

She also spent a few months in Luoyang, which can be regarded as adapting to the scenery in the city.

"He's just a fool."

Shen Qiu walked back to the table, sat on the chair, picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of dim sum, and said while tasting it:

"When Qingqing and I first met him, he had this ambition to become a hero, and then things changed, and now he has a wife's blood.

Yijian is a person who values love, and he is afraid that he will not be able to walk this road in the future.

People, with concern, can't do things casually. ”

As he spoke, he exclaimed:

"This Central Plains Martial Arts Conference, for Li Yijian, I am afraid that it is the last stroke of his Jianghu dream, but seeing him so pure joy, I can't bear to say something to hit him."

"That's what you said."

Yaoqin is also related, she said:

"Back then, my father didn't leave Suzhou for many years for my mother, and he didn't care much about the business at home.

It's just, Shen Qiu, do you have any worries in your heart? ”

"Yes."

Shen Qiu put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth, looked at Qingqing and Xiaotie who were shouting by the window, and said:

"They are just worried, but fortunately, now that Qingqing has also learned martial arts, and there are people by my side to protect me, I can feel more at ease."

"What else?"

Yaoqin, who was wearing the veil, blinked, and she was not very satisfied with Shen Qiu's answer, so she continued to ask:

"In addition to Qingqing and Xiaotie, is there anything else to worry about?"

Shen Qiu's movement of picking up the teacup stopped.

He looked at Yaoqin, who didn't dodge his eyes and just looked at him.

Shen Qiu, who was watching, was a little panicked in his heart.

Since that day, after Yaoqin got drunk and made a transgressive act, this Suzhou woman seemed to have changed all of a sudden, and occasionally asked these strange questions, Shen Qiu took a sip of tea and said:

"Something else."

"You are a hero, and you are not frank at all."

Yaoqin plucked the strings and whispered:

"It's better for me to confess to a weak woman, I heard Qingqing say, you once admired the Lin Huiyin heroine of Xiaoxiang Sword Gate, this time, Lin Womanxia didn't come to Luoyang, I'm afraid you regret it in your heart, right?

You said that you still have worries in your heart, aren't you talking about her? ”

"You wouldn't have spoken like that before, Yaoqin."

Shen Qiu was forced into a corner by the straight ball thrown by Yaoqin in two or three moves, and the one who was killed was defeated, so he could only put down the teacup and replied with his heart:

"When you arrived in Luoyang, you were also more cheerful."

"Yes, I've figured out a lot of things these days."

Yaoqin stretched out her hand and took off the veil, and she said to Shen Qiu:

"Although my uncle will protect me and Shiyin, the Holy Fire Sect will not stop there, I can't say it, when will I be exiled to the Western Regions, I will never see Qingqing again in this life, I will never see each other again...

I may not have much time left, and there are some things that I can't keep in my heart. ”

She plucked the strings and said to Shen Qiu:

"That night, I was talking drunk, and you and I never talked about that night, but later, I thought about it again, and I felt that there were really not many people left for me to choose.

Uncle Zhang Luo wanted to find a husband for Shiyin, and he also asked me that if something went wrong, this would be the last retreat between me and Shiyin.

Shen Qiu..."

Yaoqin lowered her head, tied her hands, her cheeks were slightly red, and asked softly:

"Would you like to see me marry someone else's bride?"

"I don't want to! Of course not! "TV Mobile/

Before Shen Qiu could answer, the young girl next to her shouted.

This girl didn't know when she was hiding aside and eavesdropping, but seeing that Sister Yaoqin's words had come to this, the elm head of the senior brother was silent.

Then she jumped out, waved her fist, and said to the two men:

"Whoever dares to marry Sister Yaoqin, I will break his legs! Even if I can't beat it, there is still Xiao Tie, Xiao Tie, don't you say? ”

Xiao Tie also has some eyes.

He glanced at his eldest brother's expression, then he also held his head high and nodded vigorously.

In his heart, he also felt that the eldest brother and the girl Yaoqin were a perfect match in the world, talented and beautiful.

Miss Yaoqin was attacked and disturbed by the Holy Fire Sect, and the eldest brother also contributed a lot, to say that the eldest brother had no idea in his heart, it was impossible.

Zhang Lan will also talk to Xiao Tie about this topic these days.

Anyway, Zhang Lan said that he understood a woman's heart very well, and said that there must be something between Shen Qiu and Yaoqin.

As for the Lin Huiyin woman, Zhang Lan said that she is the head of the Sword Sect, and the Xiaoxiang Sword Sect has a great cause, if the two of them really succeed, with Shen Qiu's current status in the rivers and lakes, there is a high probability that she will be in the past.

This kind of thing is a great shame in this world.

Don't say whether Shen Qiu is willing or not, when he thinks that his eldest brother is such a good man, he will have to look up to people in the future, Xiao Tie is full of displeasure.

"Don't get involved with the two of me!"

Shen Qiu pretended to have a gloomy face, he patted the table, Qingqing and Xiao Tie shrank their heads, and walked out of the box in a gloomy manner, leaving only Shen Qiu and Yaoqin who covered their mouths and snickered.

"I won't hide it from you, Yaoqin."

Shen Qiu let out a sigh of relief, and he said to Yaoqin:

"If you want to say, I see that you are so beautiful that you are not moved at all, that is impossible. But if you want to say that the two of us are here for the object, and then talk about getting married, that's a little too fast.

I still think that let's take our time, there is still time, and you don't have to worry too much about the Holy Fire Cult.

Forced by external forces to follow me, you may be temporarily relieved, but this emotional matter, how can it be so casual, if you are depressed in your heart in the future, you are tired of me.

How can I persuade you? ”

"The order of my parents and the words of the matchmaker are right, and it is reasonable for my uncle to ask you for my marriage, but you have repeatedly refused.

My uncle has talked to me about these things these days, and Shiyin has persuaded me, saying that you are indeed a good match.

I took the initiative to talk to you about this matter today, it is my life, so naturally I can't be careless. ”

Yaoqin's cheeks were a little red, she looked at Shen Qiu and said:

"It's just that your idea is really different, these two people's emotions, after getting married, can't they be cultivated slowly? Besides, it's not that there is no emotion between you and me.

Could it be that you really already have that Lin Woman in your heart, so you can't tolerate me?

Was it because of her that you refused to give me a hug that night? ”

"This..."

Yaoqin made her words clear, Shen Qiu saw the loss in Yaoqin's eyes, he stretched out his hand and put it on Yaoqin's hand, the latter subconsciously wanted to pull away, but in the end there was no movement.

Let Shen Qiu's hand cover her fingers.

Shen Qiu said:

"Not really.

Between me and Lin Huiyin, there is no kind of what you think.

It's just that it's a major life event, so I can think about it for a while. After the Central Plains Martial Arts Conference, I will definitely give you an explanation, okay? ”

"Hmm."

Yaoqin nodded.

She was also entangled in her heart.

As Shen Qiu said, there is indeed some affection between her and Shen Qiu, but to say that it is directly to the point of talking about marriage, it is indeed almost hot.

It's just that the matter of the Holy Fire Sect is too dangerous, and if you can get married and avoid disaster, it is also necessary.

But since she was a child, there are few men of the right age around her, if she doesn't choose Shen Qiu, who is affectionate and heartfelt, and can make people feel at ease, do you really want to choose Luoyang City, and other men who have never even met each other can't?

Her mother is a foreigner and does not abide by the Central Plains etiquette and law, and she was not taught this way since she was a child.

"Li Yijian married Hanxiang as a concubine, and he will take a wife in the future."

Yaoqin's face turned red, and she whispered:

"If you have a knot in your heart, I am not intolerant, my father loves my mother so much, and he also has concubines."

"This..."

Shen Qiu could only bow his head and smile bitterly.

In my hometown, the men said that they respected women and were monogamous, but if they had a little success in their careers, they would have fluttering flags outside, and now they can have three wives and four concubines in the open.

Even Yaoqin hinted at it, but Shen Qiu's heart was not like that at all.

He does appreciate Yaoqin's dignified generosity, if it is possible, it is okay to get along with such an understanding woman, but this kind of marriage, which always has a hint of coercion, is really unpleasant.

There's always a pimple in my heart.

In Luoyang City, Shen Qiu fell into the scene of being "forced to marry", and thousands of miles away, in the land of Liaodong, in Tianmu Mountain, another major event is also taking place.

Now Tianmu Mountain, thick fog all year round.

The Changbai cold spirit broke out from the mountain, and the thick ice wrapped the entire Tianmu Mountain, and there was a thick ice on the mountain.

As soon as the sun shines, it is a cold splash.

Since the Five Immortals Festival was disrupted, it has been tightly sealed by the Tongwu Sect and the Northern Dynasty army, and it is claimed that the National Teacher is in retreat and penance, and the real situation is only known to a few high-ranking members of the sect.

These days, the affairs of the DPRK and China, large and small, were handled by the ministers and several royal relatives.

The Tongwu Sect originally had thirteen masters, but in the first few months, Kurokawa participated in the Holy Fire Sect, but after being hacked to death by the mountain ghosts in the Central Plains, there were only twelve masters left.

Eight of them are now on Tianmu Mountain, guarding the sect leader's penance.

In the past few days, there has been a low sound in Tianmu Mountain, and if you want to come to the sect leader to get out, it will be in these few days.

At noon on this day, the dense fog in the mountains seemed to dissipate somewhat, and on the sacrificial platform of Tianmu Mountain, the master of Tongwu, who was sitting cross-legged and practicing, suddenly heard the sound of ice breaking.

Several people looked back at the frozen Tianmu Mountain Stone Cave, and saw a large stream of cold air escaping from under the ice, and the entire frozen hill seemed to be shaking.

Large chunks of crushed ice fell down the ridge, and there was a muffled thunderous cracking sound.

Beneath the thick and opaque ice, it seems that an ancient beast is awakening.

But there are no behemoths.

Some are just a tall Liaodong man, still wearing the black robe when he was frozen that day, his beard and hair are frozen, there is a cold air hidden in his body, and he is accompanied by a miserable white bone knife around his waist.

He walked all the way out of the cave from the Changbai Secret Realm, and everywhere he went, those sealed ice shells were torn apart, as if he took the initiative to make way for him.

When he walked into the thick fog, under the sun, he breathed a sigh of joy, and the cold qi rolling on his body was all gathered in his body in three breaths, and the frost that froze his long hair and beard was also evacuated, and there was no trace of vision.

On the top of the Baizhang cliff, the Tongwu Sect Master took a step forward, and Shuoxue Xuangong, who had reached the peak of his completion, was no longer indulging, just like a cold wind supporting him to jump into the air.

In the blink of an eye, he crossed the hundred zhang Tianxin and appeared on the altar of the sacrifice.

"Welcome to the sect master!"

The eight masters of the Tongwu Sect bowed down together, happy but their faces were ordinary, and they couldn't see a trace of joy.

In those eyes that had completely turned gray, there seemed to be a constant coldness, and he put his hands behind his back and asked casually:

"Is there anything big happening these days?"

"Report to the sect leader, everything is fine in the country."

A white-clad master of the Witchcraft replied:

"It's just that the martial arts of the Southern Dynasty are in Luoyang, holding the Central Plains Martial Arts Conference, and Heichuan, a master in the sect, died in the Central Plains a few months ago."

"Waste."

happily commented briefly, and his expression did not change.

He rubbed his fingers over the bone knife in his hand, and then asked:

"What else?"

"What's more, the Seven Peerless Sects advocate Chu, the Five Elements Sect Master Qu Evil, as well as the Ten Thousand Poison Sect Elders, and the Holy Fire Sect Envoys, are all waiting in Yanjing."

The master bowed his head and said to the master:

"They said that there was something important to discuss with the sect leader, and they said yes, it was a matter of the rivers and lakes, and it was also a matter of the world."
