Chapter 108 The Swordsman of Rules
"Do you recognize me?" Zhao Zheng said unexpectedly.
"You are really Zhao Zheng, I really didn't expect to meet a fighter here." Chu Tian's eyes lit up, and he said politely, "I have admired Your Excellency's name for a long time, and when I see it today, I am really fortunate to have three lives." ”
Zhao Zheng hurriedly got up and returned the salute and asked, "I don't know where Brother Chu came to know his appearance?" ”
"I recognize you from a portrait. Someone has already drawn the appearance of more than a dozen beaters and posted them in Vena Villa, among which there are not only your portraits, but also the portraits of the rest of the people, which are quite exquisite. Chu Tian replied.
"So you recognized me by the portrait." Zhao Zheng suddenly realized.
"I've not only seen your portrait, but I've heard some rumors about you, but I don't know if these rumors are true or not."
"What rumors?" Zhao Zheng was interested again.
"On my way home to report the good news, I once heard people talking about you in the inn, and they said that you killed the poisonous hand Gu Demon Xia Yunwei and others in the Evil Bee Valley, and you did a great harm to the martial arts."
"Oh, so that's it. Xia Yunwei and his apprentices were indeed killed by my own hands. I saw that they were using living people to practice, and their methods were too vicious, so they killed them. Zhao Zheng said suddenly.
"Xia Yunwei and others misbehaved and committed many injustices, and they really deserve to be killed. I heard that Xia Yunwei is a five-fold heavenly martial artist, and he cultivates a poisonous sand palm, which is very difficult to deal with. Your Excellency's ability to kill Xia Yunwei and a group of apprentices with your own strength is really admirable. Chu Tian arched his hand.
"Xia Yunwei is just a rat, how difficult it is to kill him, it is not a skill." Zhao Zheng said modestly.
"Xia Yunjie has been a disaster for many years. There are not a few people who want to kill him. But many people have failed. It shows that his strength is not low. Your Excellency, do not be modest. I was about to leave for Sword Forge Villa, but now that I met you, I can't leave. If I don't dislike it, I want to make friends with you, sit down and have a few drinks with you, I don't know what you think? ”
"Just what I want, please." Zhao Zheng stepped aside and stretched his finger towards his seat.
Chu Tian took a seat generously. Seeing that there was a beautiful woman beside him, he hurriedly asked Fang's name. Zhao Zheng threaded the needle and introduced it, and the three of them got to know each other.
Seeing that his son had made a new friend, and that it was another beater, the owner of the tea pavilion hurriedly stepped forward to entertain him, serving a new pot of tea and giving him a few plates of dried fruit snacks.
The three of them talked happily and soon got acquainted. Because Zhao Zheng and Chu Tian are both fighters, they talked a lot about this topic. Chu Tian kindly reminded Zhao Zheng to be careful when going to Sword Casting Villa. Because someone on the rivers and lakes has already issued a hunting order, and a corresponding bounty has been hung for each fighter. Whoever can kill it can carry his head to receive the reward.
The person who issued the hunt warrant was said to be one of the twenty-four fighters, who had malicious intentions and wanted to eliminate several of his rivals in advance.
Zhao Zheng had expected this a long time ago, and he was not even surprised that the culprit who issued the hunting order knew about it. He was more interested in how much his head was worth, and asked about it.
Chu Tian had only heard a little about this matter, and he didn't know it clearly, the price rumored outside was a person with a minimum starting price of 10,000 taels of silver, and if it was a rising star who became famous, the price would be raised even higher. Zhao Zheng's name is unknown, and the bounty should be more than 10,000 taels.
When Zhao Zheng heard that he was only worth more than 10,000 taels of silver, he was a little disappointed and felt a little funny. More than 10,000 taels of silver can't hire any good killers, so it seems that he doesn't need to worry about it.
The shopkeeper of the tea pavilion next to him was frightened by the news, and immediately told his son to be careful. He saw that Zhao Zheng and the two were going to go to the Sword Casting Villa sooner or later, so he had an idea and arranged for the three of them to go together. The three of them had no objection to this and hit it off. The owner of the tea pavilion was overjoyed, and sent a few more plates of snacks, and he was not afraid to hold a few people up.
The three of them chatted and chatted, and naturally talked about the topic of the stone wall of Iruyun.
Chu Tian told how he watched this stone wall and learned the rules and swordsmanship from it. He came to this teahouse with his father to help since he was a child, and after work, he stood in the teahouse and looked at the opposite side, and soon memorized the upper part of the rules of swordsmanship, and began to practice swordsmanship according to the above movements, and practiced well. This swordsmanship can dispatch the meridians and dantian in the human body, and after practicing for a long time, his body naturally gives birth to internal force and becomes a martial artist. His father saw that he was quite talented, so he didn't let him work anymore and let him concentrate on martial arts.
In this way, spring went to autumn, several degrees of cold and summer, Chu Tian's cultivation became higher and higher, and when he cultivated to the triple heaven, he was dissatisfied with the status quo, and began to learn the middle part of the rules and swordsmanship, and soon learned the middle part as well. When he cultivated to the Fifth Heaven, he began to formally learn the lower part of the rules and swordsmanship, and learned all the most difficult parts.
Chu Tian has not been instructed by celebrities, and he has been able to get to this point by self-study, which is quite commendable. He himself is very grateful to the martial arts predecessors who carved the rules and swordsmanship on the stone wall, and regarded him as a master.
The reason why Chu Tian can achieve today's achievements has a certain relationship with his own talent. He was a man with a natural sensitivity to shapes, and liked to arrange things symmetrically, as can be seen in his hairstyle and clothing.
"The two of you must have come here to enter the cloud stone wall, I don't know how many sword moves you two have mastered?" Chu Tian asked with a smile after telling his general experience. If you look closely, you can see that he has placed the teacup in his hand in the middle of the table, dividing the table into two equal halves. If he hadn't forcibly restrained himself, I'm afraid he would have arranged all the cups on the table neatly and symmetrically.
"I realized the fifth move in the middle, and he realized the eleventh move in the middle." Zihuan replied.
"When I first came here, I realized so many sword moves, and the two of them are really talented and intelligent."
"We're just scratching the surface of the sword moves, but we're not really enlightened. You really chewed up this rule of swordsmanship, crumpled it, and swallowed it in your stomach. ”
"Hehe, that's right." Chu Tian nodded.
Zhao Zheng proposed to chat while understanding the rules and swordsmanship on the stone wall, and got the response of the three of them. All three of them set their eyes on the stone wall of Iruyun, and their words gradually decreased.
After the rest just now, Zhao Zheng's head was no longer confused and regained consciousness. He stared at the stone wall of the clouds, thinking about the meaning of words and graphics, and a figure of a sword appeared in his mind, flying up and down, rushing forward and backward, agile.
Time passed, the sun slanted westward, the day passed in a hurry, the west side of the mountains was sprinkled with red glow, and the red sunset was sandwiched between the two mountains. This tea pavilion is just a tea pavilion, there is no place for people to stay, once it is night, people who go up the mountain have to go down the mountain to find another place to rest.
The people on the tea pavilion went down the mountain one after another, and in the end, only Zhao Zheng and the three were still reluctant to stay in their seats.
"Half a day has passed, I don't know where the two of you have come to understand?" Chu Tian asked with a smile.
"I've learned the last trick in the middle of the country." After Zihuan finished speaking, she rubbed her temples and turned her head to look at Zhao Zheng.
Zhao Zheng was still staring at the stone wall without blinking, as if an old monk had settled down, and turned a deaf ear to the questions of the two. Seeing that Zhao Zheng was so focused, the other two must have realized a very critical place and did not continue to bother.
After another stick of incense, Zhao Zheng came back to his senses, shook his head and said, "No, my head hurts too much, and I can only come to this place at most today." ”
"Even I have comprehended the last move in the middle, you must have begun to comprehend the lower part, let's talk about it, you have comprehended the first move." Zihuan asked.
"I've come to the ......," Zhao Zheng swallowed back to his lips, and glanced at Chu Tian playfully, "I don't think it's better not to say anything about this matter." In the future, Brother Chu and I are likely to meet in the ring, and if Brother Chu knows that I have learned the first few moves, I will definitely be on guard. If I don't say it, Brother Chu will definitely be cranky and messy, which is very beneficial to me. ”
"You're treacherous enough." Zihuan glanced at Zhao Zheng.
"Soldiers are not tired of cheating, as long as they can win." Zhao Zheng asked Chu Tian, "If I don't tell the truth, Brother Chu won't blame me, right?" ”
"No, no, you don't have an obligation to tell me. Besides, the rules of swordsmanship are not so easy to crack, there are countless exquisite uses between the moves of this swordsmanship, and it is useless to just see the movements of one move and one style. Chu Tian laughed and said disapprerovingly.
It was not early, Zhao Zheng and Zihuan went down the mountain together with Chu Tian and his son, and at the kind invitation of Chu Tian and his son, they lived in the home of the father and son.
According to the original plan, Zhao Zheng wanted to stay here for a few more days and see more rules and swordsmanship. But now that he had become friends with Chu Tian, he felt that it was a bit too much to concentrate on studying and cracking his friend's swordsmanship, so he changed his mind and set off the next day.
The three of them walked together and hurried unhurriedly to the Sword Forge Villa, first back on the avenue, and then all the way south. Before arriving at Sword Forge Villa, the trio passed through a small town called "Okawa Town", where they decided to stop and ask for the latest news about the ring match.
After entering the town and walking a few streets, I heard a mournful cry from a family on the side of the road: "Child, my child, you have died so miserably!" Who is so ruthless that he will poison a girl like you next time. If God has eyes, I must let that villain die a bad death and avenge my daughter......"
Listening to the voice, it was obviously made by a woman, and it is estimated that her child was killed by someone else.
The three of them heard the shout, and after deliberation, decided to go over to see the situation. They learned a martial art just to eliminate violence and peace, if they encounter this kind of thing but ignore it, then the martial arts will be in vain.
After walking for a long time, the three of them came to the gate of the courtyard where the crying was located, and found that there were many people gathered here. The three of them hurriedly took two quick steps and asked the onlookers what was going on. (To be continued......)
