On the mountainside of the main peak of the Hundred Cave Valley, all kinds of buildings have become a mess, and there are traces left by the earthquake everywhere, and rubble can be seen everywhere, and only the rafters and tiles of the buildings remain. Some of them were crushed under the stones, and only the severed limbs and blood stains remained on them.

The uninjured people of the Baidong Sect are hurrying to carry out rescue, and the people in the south and north caves are busy, some people are busy rescuing the wounded, and the other part is busy moving the stones that hold people down. The old man was standing on a high place, his clothes were torn, and he was commanding the doorman.

The shouts and screams were mixed together, and it was quite shocking.

Zhao Zheng and the others came here, and when they saw this scene, they were moved by compassion and wanted to come forward to help.

"Friends of the Hundred Caves Sect, the two of us passed through this place and suffered an earthquake with you, but luckily we were not injured. We see that you have suffered a lot of losses in your door, and we don't know if we need the two of us to help and talk about our modest efforts? Zihuan said loudly.

Although the road in the valley is difficult to navigate, there are still many people who choose to pass through this place, and some passers-by are very normal.

Hearing this, the head of the Hundred Caves Sect looked at the place where Zihuan and the two were standing, and saw that these were two masked strangers, so he was suspicious and declined: "Thank you two friends for your kindness, we will not bother you two about our own affairs in the door, so as not to delay your trip." ”

"The head is polite, both of us are idle clouds and wild cranes, we don't have anything important to do, and we are happy to help." Zihuan said.

"Your kindness, we of the Hundred Caves Sect have grasped it. But you really don't need to meddle here, just rely on the people in our door. Enough to deal with the matter. The head of the Hundred Caves Sect refused for the second time.

Zhao Zheng glanced at Zihuan. Sighed together. They were kind enough to come here to help, but they ended up with a nose of dust. This is someone else's territory, and since they don't need the two of them to interfere, they can only leave.

Zihuan passed the word again, said goodbye to the head of the Baidong Sect, and left here with Zhao Zheng.

The two returned the same way, and after two days of driving, they returned to the fork in the road before. Stayed at the Lam Soon Inn. Their next destination was Tong Wanhua's residence, and they needed to walk through another fork in the road.

Before leaving, the two planned to rest for a few days to recuperate Zhao Zheng's left shoulder injury.

Zhao Zheng lived peacefully in the inn, and that night, he asked the inn's shopkeeper to prepare a large basin of bath water. Before bathing, he opened the system warehouse, took out the jade liquid stone soap that he had just gotten from it, and weighed it twice in his hand. This thing is slightly larger than a slap and crystal clear. The color is whitish and weighs less than a pound.

It was the first time he had used it. I don't know how it works. In the introduction to the picture, it is said that this thing has little effect, and it is estimated that it will not have much effect after only a few uses. He stripped naked, strode into the tub, and soaked comfortably in it, the water not reaching his chest.

After soaking for a while, he picked up the jade liquid stone soap and slowly wiped it on his body, the originally sharp edges and corners of this stone had already been rounded, and he could use it with confidence, without worrying about scratching his skin. When I first touched this stone with my skin, I didn't feel anything special, but after rubbing it on the same skin with water for a while, my skin gradually became different, and I felt a cool feeling penetrating into the skin, which was quite comfortable and useful.

Zhao Zheng wiped his whole body with jade liquid stone soap, but he didn't touch the red and swollen area on his shoulder, and waited until the skin of his whole body felt cool, then he stopped and put the jade liquid stone soap on the table next to him.

Washing his body with jade liquid stone soap, he wiped off the water on his body, took off the hanging bamboo tube from his pants, and twisted the lid.

The bamboo tube contains a lot of milky white liquid, which is stalactite jade liquid, which is derived from jade liquid stone soap for a long time, and has the same effect as jade liquid stone soap, but the effect is faster, as long as it is applied to the body, it can take effect.

Zhao Zheng poured a little stalactite jade liquid into the palm of his hand, buckled it on his right arm, and gently grinded it out. The stalactite liquid brings a more pronounced coolness, and it gradually disappears as it penetrates into the skin at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Stalactite liquid has a special property, once it gets on the human skin, it will penetrate into it, and the skin that has been penetrated will become tough.

Zhao Zheng painted his body with stalactite jade liquid, and his whole body was cold, as if he had been soaked in ice water. Later, he really couldn't stand the cold, so he had to use the internal force of the dantian to raise his body temperature and resist the cold.

After painting his body, there was not much stalactite jade liquid left, so he simply used it up in one go, and applied the remaining liquid to the head and heart and other vital places to enhance the effect.

The bamboo tube was completely empty, and there was not a drop of liquid left.

Zhao Zheng used up the stalactite jade liquid accumulated by the Hundred Cave Sect for two years at one time, improving the toughness of the skin all over the body. He put on his pants, put on his clothes, sat cross-legged on the bed, and completely absorbed the stalactite jade liquid that had penetrated into his skin.

Looking at his own attribute panel again, in terms of external strength, he has increased by 3 points, which proves that the stalactite jade liquid has had a real effect, enhancing the durability of his flesh * body.

Turning off the panel, he took advantage of the light on the table to observe the back of his hand with the naked eye, and found that his skin was a little smoother, but other than that, there was no more change. He couldn't really take a knife and cut it on his skin to see how tough it was.

Relying on the stalactite jade liquid, he became stronger again, although it was only a little stronger, but this is how the strong man came step by step.

There was nothing else to say in the night.

Two days later, Zhao Zheng's left arm was already well, and the redness and swelling had subsided, but his arm could not move. He set out eagerly, intending to rest for one more day before setting off on his way.

That afternoon, he stood in front of the window blowing the spring breeze, holding his hands on the edge of the window, looking down.

A group of men and horses appeared on the road, there were not many people, only a few people, riding horses and roaring. The seven were dressed in similar attire, with the first middle-aged man wearing a dark blue robe with a Tai Chi pattern on his chest, and the other six young people wearing a light blue robe with a Tai Chi pattern on his chest. All seven of them carried swords on their backs, and the long spikes of swords hanging down were black and white.

Tai Chi robe, with a black and white double-spike sword hanging on the back. This is exactly the standard dress of the Wu-Tang Clan. Take a look at this outfit. You can tell where these people come from.

One temple refers to the Shaolin Temple, and the three Qings refer to the three Taoist sects, one of which includes the Wudang school. The Wudang faction has a long history, outstanding martial arts, masters in the door are like clouds, and there are first-class strong people in the town, which is a famous faction in the rivers and lakes. A giant of the righteous path.

Zhao Zheng saw that it was someone from the Wudang faction passing by, and immediately cheered up, observed intently, and recognized the identity of this person.

The leader was a hall master of the Wudang faction, about forty years old, with a black beard, eyes like electricity, cheeks like knives, and a unique heroic spirit of a martial artist. Zhao Zheng was not impressed by this person, and vaguely remembered that he was called Jiang Yong. The other six are all disciples of the Wudang Sect. The five are nobodies, not worth mentioning. There is only one person who is extremely talented and has a high level of cultivation.

This outstanding young man is called Jiang Ming, the son of Jiang Yong, who has the Five Heavens realm. He has mastered the Tai Chi swordsmanship in the sect, and every move and style is unique, and even the dignified head of the Wudang faction has praised him.

Jiang Ming went down the mountain this time to accompany his father and a group of brothers and sisters to congratulate the owner of Luoshu Villa on his birthday, but he didn't expect to meet the sword slave of Sword Casting Villa to set up a sword formation and distribute the qualification tokens to participate in the capture of Zichu Sword. He was barely qualified at his age, and he was quite confident in swordsmanship, so he asked his father to participate in the battle. His strength had reached the Fifth Heaven Realm, and he had successfully captured the third token.

Among the twenty-four fighters, Jiang Ming's strength was probably ranked in the middle and lower reaches, slightly stronger than those at the bottom.

Zhao Zheng didn't take this person to heart, and he didn't pay much attention to it, but he didn't expect to meet him at this Lam Soon Inn today. Presumably, this group of people was rushing to Sword Forge Villa, or to do something else.

"Hall Master Jiang, we've been on the road for a few days, so let's rest here for the night."

"It's just that I finally came across an inn, so let's rest and leave."

"I ate dry food every day along the way, and the bird had long faded out of my mouth, so I really wanted to go to the inn to eat some meat."

The disciples of the Wudang faction were talking nonsense, and everyone wanted to stop and rest for a night and have a good meal.

The hall master Jiang Yong, who was the leader, couldn't stand the noise of this group of juniors, and agreed to everyone's request. The Wudang faction, including Jiang Ming, cheered together, and turned over and dismounted. The shopkeeper heard the wind and hurriedly walked out of the inn to greet him.

In this way, a group of disciples from the Wudang faction also stayed at the Lam Soon Inn, and they will set off tomorrow.

Zhao Zheng has nothing to do with this group of disciples, and at most he can meet Jiang Ming in the ring in the future.

As the saying goes, the well water does not interfere with the river water, and he didn't want to pay attention to these people, but unfortunately, the trees want to be quiet and the wind does not stop.

At dinner that day, Zhao Zheng went downstairs side by side with Zihuan.

In the lobby on the first floor of the inn, there were five tables of guests, two of which were the doormen of the Wudang faction.

Zhao Zheng had just walked to the middle of the stairs, and a member of the Wudang faction recognized him and pointed: "This person is so familiar, if I remember correctly, he should have broken through the sword formation like Senior Brother Jiang and obtained the token." He seems to be called ...... I can't remember, it seems to be surnamed Zhao. ”

The Wudang sect was chatting, and when they heard this, they all turned their eyes to Zhao Zheng, and another doorman recognized Zhao Zheng and called out Zhao Zheng's name.

Zhao Zhengzhong successfully broke through the battle and successfully obtained the token, and he already had a small reputation, so it was not surprising that he was recognized. Not only him, but Zihuan was also recognized by the people of the Wudang Sect, and was called by name and nickname.

Now that he has been recognized, he can't keep a low profile anymore, even if it's polite, he has to come forward to say hello.

Zhao Zheng went downstairs with Zihuan, walked in front of the people of the Wudang faction, exchanged polite words to each other, and said something that was not very nutritious such as "I have admired the name for a long time".

While speaking, Zhao Zheng felt a sharp gaze staring at him, turned his head to look over, and found that the person staring at him was Jiang Ming. It's no wonder, after all, both of them have tokens and are potential competitors to each other, and they are likely to be high and low in the ring in the future, and it is inevitable that they will take a few more glances when they meet.

Jiang Ming is in his twenties, older than Zhao Zheng, with a wide forehead, attractive ears, copper bell eyes, energetic and majestic.

Zhao Zheng didn't care and smiled, and Jiang Ming also reluctantly smiled in response.

After saying hello, Jiang Yong, the hall master of the Wudang faction, invited Zhao Zheng and the two to dine together, looking very enthusiastic. The two couldn't shirk it, so they could only be respectful and obey their fate. sat on Jiang Yong's right hand. Jiang Yong ordered a few more dishes of wine. Fill the table with the Eight Immortals.

A crowd of people waited to eat and drink. Most of the topics fell on Zhao Zheng and Zihuan, and the Wudang faction were all in their teens and twenties, which was the age when they talked a lot.

"I happened to be there when you broke into the battle that day, and I witnessed the whole process of your breakout. You were really powerful at that time, and you actually memorized all the routes that the little spirit boy chose when he broke into the formation, and easily broke through. A little disciple of the Wudang Sect exclaimed.

"Brother praised, I was just a fluke." Zhao Zheng said modestly.

"There are so many flukes. There are no less than dozens of young people who participated in the battle, and only Senior Brother Jiang and you have succeeded in success. Hehe, I'm not afraid of your jokes, I was cheeky and went to break through at the time, but I didn't take a few steps before I was blown by the wind from the sword array. ”

"I would venture to ask, how high is your cultivation?"

"How can I compare to you and Senior Brother Jiang, I have just reached the realm of the Double Heaven."

"With this realm, it is indeed impossible to break through that sword array."

"I also know it's impossible, so I'm just going to feel the power of the sword formation, and it's not too dangerous anyway." The Wudang Sect disciple sighed as he spoke. With a wry smile, "It's all the same age." I really don't know how you and Senior Brother Jiang cultivated, and they had such a high level of cultivation, leaving us ordinary people with an entire street. ”

"Actually, there are no shortcuts, just be diligent." Zhao Zhengdao.

"You have broken through the sword formation, Senior Brother Jiang has also broken through the sword formation, in the future, the two of you will meet in the ring of the Sword Casting Villa, and I don't know who is better." The disciples of the Wudang Sect said without concealment.

"When the time comes, you will be able to distinguish between high and low." Zhao Zheng said calmly.

"We don't have to talk about it now." Jiang Ming suddenly spoke beside him, his eyes were fierce, and he looked at Zhao Zheng.

"Ming'er must not be rude, how can he challenge others indiscriminately and cause more trouble." Hall Master Jiang Yong frowned, scolded, and then hugged his fist at Zhao Zheng and said, "Don't blame the young man, my son is young and vigorous, and he always has little consideration in speaking and doing things, so he is not as calm as you." ”

Zhao Zheng hurriedly returned the salute: "The seniors are polite, I also made a mistake just now." ”

"Father, I just want to talk to Zhao Shaoxia about it, why are you blocking it." Jiang Ming said dissatisfied.

"We are only new acquaintances with this young man, how can we make such an abrupt request. Besides, there is no eye under the sword, what should I do if there is a mistake. When Jiang Yong spoke to his son, he immediately changed to a stern tone.

Jiang Ming was not convinced, and argued with his father for a few words. A few people who like to join in the fun next to him also added fuel and vinegar to match.

Zhao Zheng's old injury had not healed, and he was unwilling to grudge with the Wudang faction, so he politely refused: "Brother Jiang, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, I was injured in my left shoulder a few days ago, even if I have the heart to fight with you, I can't afford to fight with you, so forget it." If there is fate, it will not be too late for us to meet in the ring one day. ”

"Your left arm is injured, but your right arm is still intact?" Jiang Ming asked in a strange tone.

"It's okay with the right arm."

"Do you usually hold a sword with your left hand, or do you hold a sword with your right hand?"

"Right hand, of course."

"That's easy, since you usually hold the sword with your right hand, when it's time to fight, you can only use your right hand, and your left hand can be motionless. For the sake of fairness, I don't use my left hand when I'm fighting, I put my left hand behind my back. Jiang Ming provoked again, "How about it, do you have the courage to talk to me?" In the future, we will most likely meet in the ring, and it will be good for you and me to have a good fight in advance. ”

Jiang Yong couldn't control this domineering son, sighed, and stopped stopping him. As for the rest of the Wudang faction, they also set their fiery eyes on Zhao Zheng.

Things have been forced to this point, there is no room for retreat, and if you shirk it again, you will inevitably be underestimated. The mud bodhisattva still has three points of fire, let alone Zhao Zheng.

"Okay. It's better to be respectful than to obey your fate, and when this meal is over, we'll go to the courtyard of the inn to have a discussion. Zhao Zhengzheng agreed.

"When the time comes, I hope that the little brother will give him advice." Jiang Ming's eyes lit up and he said happily.

"The Wudang faction is a famous faction, the Wudang thirteen styles are widely spread, and the Tai Chi swordsmanship is even more unique in the martial arts, so you should teach me a lot when the time comes."

"To be able to break through that sword formation, you must be very human, and you don't have to be modest."

As soon as they heard that these two people were going to fight, everyone had no intention of eating, even if they were not full, they all said that they were full. The meal was dispersed, and everyone got up.

As an elder, Jiang Yong came forward to summon the shopkeeper of the inn, claiming to borrow the treasure land for use, and stuffed some silver. The shopkeeper did not dare to accept the money from the Wudang faction, and promised to lend the venue for free, and told him to be measured and not to make blood.

With the permission of the shopkeeper, everyone walked out of the back door and went around the courtyard.

Zhao Zheng and Jiang Ming walked out of the crowd, away from everyone, and stood in an open place, opening up a distance.

Jiang Ming pulled out the posture, pulled out the sword behind his back, and made the starting hand style in the Taiji swordsmanship, the horizontal sword was the chest, and he put his hand behind his back, and shouted: "Zhao Shaoxia, please!" ”

Zhao Zheng also pulled out a sword of life, pulled a sword flower from the Maha swordsmanship, and said politely: "Brother Jiang, I am offended." ”

Although he had just obtained the Tiger Roar Sword, this sword was obtained from a dead man, and it was easy to cause unnecessary trouble, and it was inconvenient for outsiders to use it, so he could only use the sword of one life against the enemy. Only by finding a blacksmith and replacing the Tiger Roar Sword with a new scabbard and hilt can the sword be taken out and displayed.

Tai Chi swordsmanship pays attention to the combination of rigidity and softness, the harmony of yin and yang, the circle is wishful, and it is endless. Jiang Ming has practiced this sword technique since he was a child, and he has mastered the essence of this sword technique. Before he started, he first circled with Zhao Zheng, and stepped step after step, and the distance of each step was the same, not bad at all.

Jiang Ming is drawing a circle, and Zhao Zheng is the center point of the circle, and the two together form a circular Taiji, one yin and one yang, with infinite changes. (To be continued......)
