Chapter 40: Rumors of the Border City

"What do you think of that knife just now?" In the crowd, two figures stood one after the other, looking at Xiao Chen and Luo Min, who were calmly leaving, and couldn't help but look a little strange.

If Xiao Chen was there, he would naturally be able to recognize that the white-clothed scribe standing in front was the leader of the border city guards, Wang Shi, and the middle-aged man in the back was Shi Yan, the leader of the border city guard team.

"That knife just now...... It's weird. Shi Yan frowned and said, "Judging from the qi and spiritual pressure on his body, this guy can't have the strength of opening the vein four or five layers at most, but the one he casually splits out also has at least the destructive power of the seven layers of the opening vein." ”

"Zhao An is also a well-known genius in Yuncheng, and his strength is enough to block any attack under the peak, but under this young man's knife, he almost cut off his right arm......"

Shi Yan frowned and groaned for a moment, and said with some uncertainty.

"Hehe, what you see is strength, but what I see is the realm. There was a hint of a smile on Master Wang's face, "It's hard to imagine that a young man with a fourfold open pulse can far surpass his own strength in the martial arts realm, and even more than ......."

A hint of surprise flashed in Shi Yan's eyes, he had just lit the first palace lamp now, and the realm of the palace had not yet been stabilized, so he did not have the vision of the king master, so he naturally couldn't see the strangeness in it.

Hearing Wang Shi's evaluation, Shi Yan suddenly remembered something.

"This teenager should not be a simple character. ”

Wang Shi turned around and glanced at Shi Yan inquiringly.

"A month ago, I went into Yin Mountain to look for someone, and I happened to meet this young man, at that time he was only in the early stage of opening the pulse, and he didn't even open the first vein gate, but when I saw him today, he was already four times the pulse open, and even Zhao An, who could seriously injure the seven-fold pulse with one knife, is this kind of thing really possible?"

Wang Shi narrowed his eyes, and a hint of strange color flashed in the depths of his pupils.

"Perhaps...... It's a special physique, and it's no wonder that there are too many geniuses in the border city during this time......"

Shi Yan wanted to say something, but was stopped by Wang Shi, pointed to Zhao An and his servants who were angry in the distance, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"You'd better solve this matter first, there are more and more people in the outer city, hey, it's really troublesome......"

......

After Xiao Chen and Luo Min left the street with Li Hang and the three of them, they returned directly to the small courtyard where Luo Min lived.

"Brother Xiao, thank you just now, if it weren't for you and Xiao Luo, I might ......"

A trace of guilt flashed in Li Hang's eyes, "What happened in Yinshan last time ......"

Xiao Chen waved his hand and grinned.

"It's in the past, it's okay. ”

Li Hang gritted his teeth, barely showing a hint of relief.

On the last trip to Yinshan, he and Xiao Chen were teammates and brothers on the same team, but at the most dangerous moment, except for Luo Min who stayed to accompany Xiao Chen, everyone else chose to abandon Xiao Chen and leave alone in order to avoid the sharp edge of Huya and Brown Bear.

Although he was forcibly taken away, he felt guilty after all.

This is also the reason why he later left White Velvet.

"Li Hang, did that Zhao An have anything to do with me just now?" Su Yan had already brought the tea, and after Xiao Chen thanked him, he turned his head and asked.

"Zhao Anke is an out-and-out bastard, he relies on his father's identity as the lord of Yuncheng, arrogant and unscrupulous, and his heart is very small, and he can't look down on people who are better than him, this time he has been in the border city for a few days, and several teenagers have been planted in his hands. Li Hang gritted his teeth and said.

"He inquired about Brother Xiao in front of me, obviously trying to be unfavorable to you, I have already betrayed you once, this time I will not betray you no matter what!"

Li Hang said with burning eyes, Luo Min patted Li Hang's shoulder and smiled.

"It's righteous enough, but it's a pity that there is no wine, otherwise our brothers would really have to drink a few glasses!"

Although Xiao Chen's face was still calm, he could still see a slight vibration in his eyes.

In the hundred years of Nantianmen, the days he traveled were far shorter than the time he practiced in the mountain gate, so that there were no friends around him except for the senior brother and the woman, and his heart still longed for friendship, even though the two teenagers in front of him were a hundred years younger than his true identity, but it still made his heart throb a little.

"I've got wine here......"

Xiao Chen's right hand flipped over, and a porcelain-white wine vessel suddenly appeared in his hand, the dragon and phoenix carved on the wine vessel were extremely luxurious, and there was a hint of richness like coming out, Luo Min and Li Hang's eyes couldn't help but light up.

"Brother Xiao Chen, there seems to be a great storage artifact?" Su Yan, who had been standing very quietly next to him, suddenly asked out loud.

Xiao Chen glanced at Su Yan and nodded.

"Brother Xiao, don't get me wrong, I just see that Brother Xiao is not guarded at all, I just want to remind the little brother, the storage magic weapon is a very precious thing in the entire cultivation world, and it is also the most coveted treasure by some strong people, it is better to pay a little attention to the little brother when he goes out in the future." ”

"That's right, Xiao Chen, I wanted to remind you before, you should be careful with the use of storage magic weapons, if you are targeted by some thieves, the size is also a trouble......"

Xiao Chen nodded, although his storage magic weapon existed in the Spirit Sea, and he was not afraid of thieves snatching it, but if he could have less trouble, it would naturally be better.

The three of them pushed the cups and changed the glasses, and the rise of drinking, Su Yan next to her smiled and said a few words from time to time, which made the atmosphere in the small courtyard harmonious and comfortable.

The sun was setting in the west, Xiao Chen raised his head slightly, and saw a young brother in a gorgeous costume leaning on a low wall, looking at the three of them with envy.

"Tsk...... I didn't expect that there would be such a good treasure in the small border city......" Brother Gongzi walked into the courtyard with a smile on his face and bowed his hand slightly towards Xiao Chen and the others.

"I wonder if I'm lucky enough to have a drink with you?"

Good wine is naturally good wine, this is the Hundred Flowers Spirit Brew he brought from the South Heavenly Gate, not to mention ordinary people, even if it is a real cultivation sect in the East Lack Realm, it may not be able to get it.

But drinking is the mood, drinking with a stranger who met for the first time, Xiao Chen doesn't have that habit yet.

Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes, his gaze fell on the brocade-clothed boy and looked up and down, and a strange look flashed in his eyes.

He is another talented young man, seventeen or eighteen years old, and he has the strength of the sevenfold peak of the opening vein, and the strange aura on his body gives him a feeling of facing Jian Junsheng.

This guy is probably a person who is not weaker than Duan Jianfeng Sword Junsheng, but he doesn't know which party's strength he came from, and whether the purpose of coming to the border city is the same as everyone else.

Xiao Chen was silent for a moment, then took out the spirit brew that he had originally wanted to put away, and filled it into the empty cup next to him.

"Please!"

Luo Min's face softened slightly, although he didn't have Xiao Chen's keen sense of spiritual sense, he still found this young man unusual.

"Who are you?" Luo Min replied.

"Hehe, in the next surname Gu, a single name is a dry character. The young man in brocade took a sip of his wine glass, and his slightly lazy eyes were full of amazement, "Tsk, it's really good wine, even if it is compared to Xuanhuang, the national wine in the Great Xuan Emperor's Palace, it is not much different." ”

Emperor Xuan's Palace, the national wine Xuanhuang?

Luo Min's eyes moved, his right hand involuntarily stretched back, held it on the handle of the dark red broken knife on the side of his leg, and frowned and asked, "You are from the Great Xuan Emperor Capital?"

"Haha, it's just that I traveled with the elders in the family, and I was lucky enough to go once, I'm not from that place, I have a formal attitude, and I don't have ...... energy."

Xiao Chen's face was calm and unmoved. Luo Min's eyes flashed slightly, and he secretly guessed the identity of the young man in front of him.

Da Xuan has a national weapon Xuanhuang Ding, standing in front of the imperial capital Longmen, to town the country. Xuanhuang Ding absorbs and refines the spirit of heaven and earth into Xuanhuang wine, which is known as the national wine of the Great Xuan Empire.

People who have been to the capital of the Great Xuan Emperor do not represent anything, but those who are fortunate enough to drink the wine Xuanhuang of the Great Xuan Kingdom will definitely not be ordinary people.

"Brother, what is the name of your wine, can you tell me about it? I admit that I have drunk a lot of wine, but this kind of wine is really unheard of, if it were not for this visit to the border city to see the excitement, I am afraid that I would have missed the opportunity to taste the holy wine in this wine." Gu Qian shook his head and said with some luck.

"Look at the excitement, what's so lively in the border city?" Li Hang laughed and asked, "Speaking of the remote barren land like the border city, it was rare for people from outside the city to come in the past, but recently it has been strange, not only have people from Yuncheng and Jincheng appeared in the border city one after another, but even some big city-states who have declared themselves famous have sent people here, and I don't know what is going on with Te Niang......

Luo Min and Xiao Chen glanced at each other and nodded secretly.

"Hey, don't you know?" Gu Qian asked strangely, reaching out and taking a sip of the wine glass on the table, he couldn't help but let out a comfortable moan.

"A month ago, the news of the disappearance of the dark lake circle under the iron wall of Canglan reached Langya County, which aroused the curiosity of some wealthy families, and the king of Langya County was worried that the movement here was a means of the Canglan Demon Clan, so he asked a spiritual sense who was good at divination to calculate the reason. ”

"The result calculated by that spirit master was only two words, and it was these two words that caused a sensation in the entire Great Xuan Empire. Gu Qian shook his head and said with a look of surprise.

"Which two words?" Luo Min asked with an eyebrow.

Gu Qian glanced at Luo Min and slowly spit out two syllables, "Donghuang!"

"Donghuang?" Luo Min frowned and thought for a moment, then his face suddenly changed, and the whole person almost jumped up from the spot.

"That's right, it's the Eastern Emperor you thought of, who once rebelled out of the Spirit Palace, killed alone in the land of thousands of miles, let the entire demon clan blood flow, and formed an unshakable enmity with the human race. Gu Qian's eyes flickered, "That spirit master finally figured out the word Donghuang at the cost of a whole body of cultivation, which is the reason why so many people come here to watch the excitement." ”

"Your Excellency the Eastern Emperor...... But what does the border city have to do with that powerful predecessor who was famous all over the world thousands of years ago? Could it be that the Eastern Emperor is not dead yet?

Gu Qian shook his head and turned his gaze to the direction of Yin Mountain.

"It's hard for anyone to decide whether that kind of character is alive or dead, but the word Donghuang alone is enough to make the whole world flock to it. ”

"He, he definitely has this kind of energy!"
