Chapter 113: Pushing the Boat with the Current
Ye Sheng glanced at the face of Father-in-law Hai's dead mother, smiled secretly in his heart, and said like a river, "The prince doesn't know, the peach blossom wine is naturally sweet and pure." Senior sister doesn't drink much, but she likes to drink a glass of peach blossom wine......"
"Oh? Bad drinking? Tang Yan's eyes lit up, and he nodded thoughtfully, "This one, this king has written it down!" ”
Ye Sheng and Tang Yan talked a lot, and when the sky was bright, Ye Sheng said goodbye to Tang Yan, who was more and more energetic the more he listened, and left, this time, Ye Sheng, who had a rough face and a scar on his face, did not appear again for dozens of days.
In the early morning of the second day, Ji was unable to return to the inn, and under the rejuvenation of the doctor's skillful hand, as long as he did not move sharply, then there would be no problem. Ji was powerless to visit Dugu Mansion alone at noon, in the midst of all the attention. After a stick of incense, Ji was powerless to leave under the escort of Liu Platinum, the housekeeper in Dugu Aoxue Mansion. On the same day, the news of Ji Wu's competition with Dugu Aoxue had spread throughout Chongqing.
In the afternoon three days later, on Wuyun Mountain in Chongqing, the two city lords will fight it out! Chongqing is a mountain city with rugged mountain roads, and Wuyun Mountain is one of the steep mountains. The night market is lively, the scenery is beautiful, and the mountain peaks run through the five clouds. It is really a blessing to be able to witness the competition between Dugu Aoxue and Ji Weak on this mountain!
For a while, the southern half of the martial arts was a sensation again! "Ji is so arrogant, he is not satisfied with the defeat of Chen Feng Zhanlonggang first, and he wants to challenge Dugu Aoxue next, which is really hitting a stone with an egg!" "That's not right, since Ji is powerless and dares to take the initiative to compete with Dugu Aoxue, then he will naturally win." "The swordsmanship of the Lord of Dugu City is unparalleled, I have been admiring it for a long time, no matter what, I will rush from Guangzhou to Chongqing to observe the scene!"
For a time, Chongqing continued to pour in from outsiders within a few days, some of them lived in the inn at the foot of the mountain, and some climbed directly to Wuyun Mountain, waiting day and night, not leaving an inch, in order to occupy a good place to better see the competition between the two.
Tomorrow is the date of the competition, the top of Wuyun Mountain, the center of this empty peak, the ring has been erected, the three-zhang long circular ring is covered with red silk, the layout is simple, not even a swaggering banner, but the ring has been crowded down thousands of people, one after another, rubbing shoulders, everyone came here early to occupy a good position, just to not miss this long-awaited competition.
In the past few days, Ji Wuwu and Dugu Aoxue have not shown up, and everyone is not surprised, after all, it is a battle related to the position and reputation of the city lord, and it is normal to practice in retreat at this moment. People who came to Chongqing from all over the world did not know that the outcome of this competition had been decided from the beginning. How can a dead man win the game?
Tang Yan's men and horses have also been arranged on Wuyun Mountain, picking a flat place to camp, surrounded by a hundred guards, although it is on a hundred meters high mountain, but Tang Yan does not have to worry about food and clothing, every day there are soldiers and horses from the mountain to transport wine and food.
Tang Yanmei reclined on the soft collapse, looked at the crowd of spectators outside the tent, and smiled proudly, "What about the swordsmanship across the rivers and lakes, and what about Dugu Aoxue's reputation like thunder!" Against this king, there is only one dead end! Take Chongqing first, then go to Chengdu, and then attack Xining, this king wants the city lord in the west of China, all for his own use! ”
Tang Yan made bold statements, treating those martial arts people who only knew how to fight and kill as ants, and the Gonggong Hai behind him did not say a word. This is not only Tang Yan's wish, but also the emperor's dictation. There are many wars in the west of China, whether it is the people or the rivers and lakes, it has always been turbulent, and the people are not happy, if the city lords of these big cities all serve the imperial court and are left and right for the royal family, then it must be a beautiful thing!
Gonggong Hai came back to his senses, glanced at Tang Yan in front of him, and said in a low voice, "The old slave doesn't know why, I always feel restless these days, I can't sleep, I'm afraid it's ......" Tang Yan laughed, waved his hand disdainfully and said, "Gonggong Hai, you are too worried, Dugu Aoxue is dead, and although Ji's weak injury has not healed yet, he only needs to pretend to be in the ring." What other accidents can happen with such categorical things? ”
Gonggong Hai nodded and stopped talking, since he met this kind of lord who didn't like to admonish, then he wouldn't talk about these things in the future. "Ji is powerless to send a few people over there, and they must come over before fifty tomorrow." Tang Yan lowered his head and played with the jade wrench on his thumb. Outsiders thought that Ji was powerless to practice in retreat, but they didn't know that he was just eating and drinking every day.
"Yes." Hai Gongcheng wanted to go out and give orders, but was stopped by Tang Yan, Tang Yan squinted his eyes and smiled, and said in a low voice, "There is a girl named Hongxing in Chongqing Ruyi Garden, who was invited for this king." Grandpa Hai's expression remained unchanged, and he nodded and left. People aren't romantic, teenagers! Tang Yanmei smiled, thinking that the big city of Chongqing was about to fall under her control, and she couldn't help but be proud.
Another night has passed, and today is a big day for Ji to compete with Dugu Aoxue. Ye Sheng, who took off the human skin mask, naturally wanted to join in the fun. The road of Wuyun Mountain is narrow and rugged, and the people who come to climb the mountain are endless, stretching like a dragon, looking at the appearance of this blockage, I am afraid that it will be difficult to go up the mountain after two hours.
Ye Sheng glanced sideways at this steep mountain rock, the mountain is rugged, if you fly up the mountain from here, you can fall down and break your bones if you are not careful. Ye Sheng looked up again at the thousands of people crowded in front of him, standing on this stone step, but the time of half the incense only moved three steps, it was too slow.
Ye Sheng no longer hesitated, his feet stepped lightly, his body was as light as a swallow to the mountain rock, his toes lightly touched the protruding stone wall, Ye Sheng spread his wings with an eagle, and his body went straight towards the peak. On the stone steps and mountain road, everyone couldn't help but exclaim, "Such a cliff, he actually wants to climb the mountain with light skills, don't die?" "Humph! A black belt? Play for the gallery! Isn't my blue belt an ascent to the mountain? Wait for him to fall and die! "That's too much, but I see that kid has extraordinary foot strength, and he must not use ordinary light skills."
"Humph! No matter how powerful it is, is it good to float on the water with my iron legs? If you want to show me, it's not that easy! I saw a young man in the crowd with sparse hair and a blue shirt and blue belt jumping out of the crowd without saying a word, stepping on the stone wall and chasing straight up towards Ye Sheng.
Ye Sheng and the iron-legged water floating figure is like a phantom, constantly pointing on the raised stone wall to accumulate strength, this way of mountaineering, not only light skills, but also endurance. If you don't have enough strength, you will inevitably fall off the mountain! At this moment, the team was crowded like a dragon, unable to advance or retreat, and everyone was idle, raising their heads and staring at the figures of Ye Sheng and the two chasing without blinking.
After a while, he only heard the iron leg floating on the water with a loud shout, and he stepped on the air with his feet in the air, and his body was crooked in the air, and he fell down from dozens of meters in mid-air. The crowd panicked and avoided it. At such a height, if you lend a hand, I am afraid that you will also be stoned to death. The legs of the iron leg floating on the water are not made of iron, he fell heavily on the ground with the sound of the wind in his ears, and he couldn't do any remedy and struggle, his legs fell to the ground, only to hear a click, the iron leg floated on the water and screamed in pain, his body was like mud, and he fainted in pain.
Everyone couldn't bear to look at it directly, and secretly shouted that it was a pity. "I'll just say, if you are strong and competitive, you will fall to your death sooner or later." "This young man is right, but it's noon." "......" The iron legs that fell into a mess on the ground floated on the water and no one paid attention, and the group looked up with dozens of pairs of eyes, until Ye Sheng's figure disappeared into the clouds, and they still raised their necks.
"It's been so long, why haven't you fallen off yet?" "How long has it been?" "Half a stick of incense." "Could it be that kid has already climbed the steep and towering Wuyun Mountain?" "Who is that kid's disciple, who has such a powerful light skill!" Everyone retracted their stiff necks and sighed as they floated over the iron leg that no one cared about and continued up the mountain road.
If you follow the rules and line up to climb the mountain, I am afraid that after the dragon team goes up the mountain, the competition will be over. Ye Sheng has been continuously climbing the mountain with the 'gecko climbing wall' in the myriad of changes, and the cliffs are like walking on the ground, and after consuming a lot of physical strength, he finally jumped to the top of Wuyun Mountain.
Master Situ Xingchen taught himself only three short layers of divine travel, the first 'oil on the soles of the feet', after practice, you can travel thousands of miles a day, no matter how much a master wants to beat you, you can't catch up. Although the master said so, Ye Sheng could see that he was a little exaggerated.
The second layer of the Divine Walk is the 'Gecko Climbing the Wall', as long as there is still a place for the feet to settle down and exert their strength, then Ye Sheng has always been able to walk on the ground and cross difficult and dangerous situations. The third layer of the Divine Journey is the 'Loach Drill Hole', and if you want to practice to this layer, you need strong internal force. When the time comes, you will be able to easily repel your opponent with internal force, and you will be like a slippery loach that no one can catch!
It's a pity that this ever-changing third layer is too difficult to practice, and Ye Shengshi has not stepped into the third layer so far. Gently wiping the fine sweat on his forehead and calming down his panting appearance, Ye Sheng blended into the crowded crowd on the mountain peak and headed towards the ring.
There is no one in the ring, today is a big day for Ji to compete with Dugu Aoxue, naturally there will be no ignorant people to play in the ring, these three zhang rings are reserved for these two purple level masters. The audience was full of voices and boiling, and everyone who came in droves couldn't wait to watch this peerless battle!
"It's already noon, why haven't the two city lords shown up yet!" "What's the hurry! The master is always late! "I don't know who wins and who loses today, I pressed the Dugu City Lord for a thousand taels of silver, hoping to return with a full load!" When Ye Sheng heard this, he glanced at the person beside him, and actually bet on Dugu Aoxue, so it was really clear whether he won or lost. Ye Sheng smiled, walked through the crowd with difficulty, found the dealer, and took out 10,000 taels of silver, "I bet on the city lord ...... Ji"
As soon as the words fell, I saw a figure sweeping from the sky. Ye Sheng is saying that Cao Cao Cao arrived, Ji was unable to fly from a distance, and the dragonfly jumped into the water, and stood firmly in the middle of the ring. In an instant, everyone was excited and applauded. "City Lord Ji is here!" "Is the competition about to start, I'm so excited!" "It's a great honor to have the honor to see the Dugu City Lord sword again in this life!"
