Sheng Ming looked at Jin Sheng, who was stunned because of nervousness, and hurriedly said, "Shi Hongyu, everything has been bought, let's leave quickly!" ”

At this time, Jin Sheng woke up like a dream, and hurriedly got on the horse and followed behind Sheng Ming.

After all, Sheng Ming is already twenty-eight years old, and he has never seen anything in the world. He thought, "Martial arts can be taught, but men and women can only rely on themselves, Jin Sheng should also grow up, let him do it himself!" ”

Sheng Ming borrowed an ox cart, and Jin Sheng and Sheng Ming came to the fishing village with a cloth full of ox carts.

With the help of the old man, Sheng Ming distributed the cloth to the villagers. He asked Jin Sheng to hand over the two pieces of good cloth to Ling'er, and said that we would leave after handing over the cloth to Ling'er, and Jin Sheng took the cloth to the old man's house.

The door of the old man's house is open, and now there should be only Ling'er alone. Jin Sheng hesitated at the door for a while, but he didn't dare to step in.

Ling'er found Jin Sheng, and she came out and said, "Come in!" Don't stand all the time. ”

Jin Sheng hurriedly handed the cloth to Ling'er and said, "This... Brother Ming asked me to give it to you, and we'll leave in a minute. ”

Ling'er continued the cloth, not knowing what to say.

She looked up at Jin Sheng, attracted by Jin Sheng's eyes. She found that Jin Shengcan's star-like eyes had penetrated everything about herself.

Jin Sheng tilted his head and looked around, he felt as if Ling'er was looking at him. He turned his head, and the two looked at each other, as if time had stood still, and the two kept looking at each other.

Jin Sheng stared at Ling'er, who was expressionless, and Ling'er also stared at Jin Sheng.

Ling'er's cheeks couldn't be said to be white under the daily sun and rain, but her crystal eyes and delicate cheeks made Jin Sheng breathless, and Jin Sheng's sweat was already soaking his back.

After a long time, Ling'er came to her senses and said, "Thank you brother for me, you are leaving soon?" Otherwise, let's rest for another night! ”

Jin Sheng said: "No, we are leaving, you take care." After Jin Sheng finished speaking, he turned around and left, walked a few steps, and stopped again.

Jin Sheng turned around, put the jade bracelet wrapped in the box on the cloth, and said, "I'm sorry for giving it to you." ”

After Jin Sheng finished speaking, he ran away without looking back.

Sheng Ming was already riding a horse and waiting for Jin Sheng at the entrance of the village. Jin Sheng came to the entrance of the village and jumped on the horse. The old man persuaded Sheng Ming to no avail, so he had to say: "Two young heroes, have a good trip, take care!" ”

Jin Sheng and Sheng Ming went hand in hand, Jin Sheng just wanted to leave quickly, but now he was starting to be a little reluctant.

Jin Sheng asked, "Brother Ming, where are we going in Bingzhou?" How to get there? ”

Sheng Ming said: "I don't think Bingzhou is the place where we live for a long time, let's go to the Northern Wilderness!" ”

Jin Sheng said: "The Northern Wasteland? What kind of place is it? ”

Sheng Ming replied: "The Northern Wasteland is a land that no one has jurisdiction over, and it is the junction of the three states of Shenzhou, Ice State, and Beast State. The only thing that can speak there is strength, and it is a paradise for countless fugitives. ”

Sheng Ming looked at Jin Sheng, who was full of yearning for the Northern Wasteland, and said, "Let's gather a group of people in Bingzhou first, and then go to the Northern Wasteland!" After all, it's better to have more people than to be alone. ”

"This time, we first went to the main city of the Cao family, "Wenhui City", and I heard that Wenhui City is one of the top ten city-states in Bingzhou. It was about two hundred miles away from us, and we went all the way to the northwest, and we should be there in two days. ”

The two of them traveled for two days, and along the way they saw many villages, which were only worse than fishing villages. Sheng Ming looked at the lush crops and said, "The life of the people is difficult! ”

Early in the morning of the third day, the two came to Wenhui City. Standing outside the city gate, Jin Sheng and Sheng Ming were shocked by the majesty of the city-state.

In front of them was a dangerous city surrounded by mountains on three sides and with only one wall. This wall is 100 zhang high, and the steep mountain on three sides can be described as "one man is a pass, and ten thousand people are not open." ”

Sheng Ming stood under the city wall and said: "With such a natural danger, it is no wonder that the million-strong army of "Luo Qing" will be defeated here. ”

Jin Sheng asked, "Brother Ming, who is Luo Qing?" What's going on? ”

Sheng Ming replied: "More than a hundred years ago, the Daluo Empire had reached the third generation, and after the recuperation of the previous two generations of emperors, the Daluo Empire at this time had reached its heyday. ”

"At that time, Luo Qing, the third-generation emperor of the Daluo Empire, watched the intrigue of the royal family of the Ice Kingdom in Bingzhou, and the ambitions of the ministers of the feudal realm. He decided to drive the expedition in person and send millions of troops, which is bound to sweep the ice state. ”

"Everything went well in the beginning, and everywhere the army went, it was overwhelming. Luo Qing was very proud, he thought that he could accomplish great things that his predecessors could not do. ”

"Until the army came to Wenhui City, a million troops attacked the city day and night, fighting for eight full months. From spring to winter, Ke Wenhui City is still unbreakable. ”

"The winter in Bingzhou was unusually cold, and Luo Qing's army was suddenly completely empty. At this time, the army of the Ice Country also came, and Luo Qing's army had no combat effectiveness and was slaughtered by the army of the Ice Country. ”

"Under the protection of the dead, Luo Qing fought his way out of the siege and returned to the Daluo Empire, but the million-strong army was wiped out. Soon after returning, Luo Qing died of grief. ”

The two of them walked into Wenhui City, and there were many soldiers at the gate of the city, and they all had the word "Cao" on their chests.

Wenhui City is worthy of being a super city, Jin Sheng and Sheng Ming walked in the outer city, watching all kinds of people come and go. Jin Sheng was very happy to see such a bustling and lively city.

At this moment, there was the sound of horses' hooves, and they had just learned from the soldiers that horses were not allowed to be ridden in the city. Sheng Ming felt that it was not simple, he hurriedly pulled Jin Sheng, and retreated to the side of the road like everyone else.

Jin Sheng and Sheng Ming saw a team of people galloping past, led by a woman in red.

I saw that the woman's delicate melon seed face and cheeks were like white jade, her face was full of arrogance, and she was dressed in red with riding boots, and she looked like a young lady.

The people and horses flickered by, and Jin Sheng looked at the dust raised by the horses. At this time, the appearance of Ling'er and the woman in red appeared in his mind, but their feelings in Jin Sheng's mind were completely different.

One is like fire; One like water. Jin Sheng quickly shook his head and pulled himself back into reality.

Jin Sheng and Sheng Ming came to a tavern, and they used the money left over from the death match to order a table of dishes. Jin Sheng ate in a whirlwind, Sheng Ming carried the wine to the place where everyone was talking, he wanted to know about the forces in the city.

"Come out and mix, you have to mix well, only sparse martial arts will not work." Sheng Ming said to Jin Sheng before leaving.

Sheng Ming turned around and said, "The Cao family in the city is the biggest force, and the Cao family is in charge of Wenhui City's city defense, troops, taxes, and land. Now the city lord of Wenhui City is called "Cao Yuan", and the one who rushed through the market just now was the eldest lady of the Cao family. ”

"In addition to the Cao family, there are two major forces in the city. They are the Li family and the Hu family, and the Li family is mainly engaged in the fighting arena and the Colosseum; The Hu family's main business is shops and auction houses. ”

Jin Sheng asked, "Brother Ming, what are we going to do?" Isn't it going to the fighting arena to have fun? ”

Sheng Ming said: "You must go to the fighting arena, but not now. Now let's go to the Colosseum. ”

When Jin Sheng heard about the Colosseum, he felt very novel. He couldn't wait, Jin Sheng asked, "Brother Ming, what is the Colosseum for?" Fight the beast? ”

"Yes, the Colosseum is about hand-to-hand combat with beasts, wait a minute, dare you try it."

Jin Sheng said: "Of course, watch me beat them to the ground. ”

The two of them came to the Colosseum, which is worthy of being a big city, this Colosseum is like a small castle, with a radius of 100 feet, very magnificent.

After entering, Jin Sheng and Sheng Ming went directly to sign up. The sign-up person asked them, "Is there a fight card?" Or martial arts? ”

Jin Sheng was stunned for a moment, he had never heard of it before. Sheng Ming seemed to remember something, and pulled Jin Sheng and the others out of the Colosseum.

Jin Sheng was very puzzled and asked: "Brother Ming, you seem to have said that Wupai is a thing?" Is it important? ”

Sheng Ming replied: "After the primary martial arts level test, what level you reach will be issued to you with a martial arts card." ”

"A fighting card is your level in the arena or the Colosseum, and it was just a bronze medal in the beginning. There are two ways to get promoted, one is to slowly accumulate wins, and the other is to win streaks. ”

"Let's go to the inner city first, test our skills first, and get a martial arts card."

The two of them came to the inner city together and walked to the martial arts. The two walked in, ready for the test.

They waited inside for a long time, but no one came, Sheng Ming was a little angry, and asked, "Why don't you take us in to inspect the Great Luo Divine Stone?" ”

At this time, a short uncle came out, perhaps because he was short, and the "Cao" on his chest was particularly obvious. He said, "Da Luo Shenshi, are you from Shenzhou? We call it Ice Stone. Do you understand the rules? If you want to test, you have to charge money. ”

Sheng Ming really doesn't understand the rules of Bingzhou, let alone Jin Sheng. They had already spent all their money on the meal just now, and now, alas! It's really a penny that is hard to beat a hero.

Just as they were thinking about what to do, a man in Tsing Yi about 20 years old with a yellow sign on his waist walked out. He was followed by a large number of people, and the short man hurried up.

He said: "Hu Gongzi is amazing! At a young age, he has already reached a first-class master, and I am afraid that it will not be long before Childe will reach the master realm. ”

The man in Tsing Yi smiled and continued walking. Walking up to Sheng Ming and Jin Sheng, he stopped and asked the short man, "Who are they?" What are you doing here? ”

The short man hurriedly said: "They are people from Shenzhou, they don't know the rules of Bingzhou, and they want to come to measure the ice stone without any money." ”

The man in Tsing Yi looked Sheng Ming and Jin Sheng up and down, he accidentally saw Jin Sheng's sword hilt, and immediately asked: "In Xia Hu Jingpei, dare to ask the two sons their names?" What is the so-called matter of Wenhuicheng? ”

Sheng Ming also hurriedly said: "Under Sheng Ming, this is my younger brother Shi Hongyu." Our brothers and I wandered here because of our family's middle road. ”

Hu Jingpei said: "In this case, after the test of the two sons, please come to my house and let me entertain the two of you." ”

Sheng Ming just wanted to excuse himself. Hu Jingpei said loudly to the short man: "Why don't you hurry up and take the two sons in for testing." ”

The short man hurriedly said, "Two sons, please inside." ”

Sheng Ming arched his hand and said, "Then we might as well be respectful." ”
