In addition to Yao Ruoyu, Zou Buyi, Wu Xue, Hu Xian, Fan Difei, Li Huan, and Hou Jingru, the team of Wenbang went to Hangdu to pay tribute, as well as Bai Junru, who participated in the Qingtan of Bailu Academy, and the accompanying 100-day army soldiers.

Instead of going to the deck with Wu Xue and the others to roll dice and play poker, Yao Ruoyu stayed alone in the room and practiced quietly.

With trickery and mental methods, the spiritual power runs around Zhou Tian, and after a short time, Yao Ruoyu's surroundings have been covered by clouds and fog, because it is on the surface of the river, and almost eighty percent of the spiritual energy absorbed is water system, so that after condensing around his body and not dispersing, his clothes are already slightly soaked.

At the same time as the spiritual power was running, Yao Ruo's foolish eyes looked at his nose, his nose looked at his heart, his thoughts sank, and he looked at the Purple Mansion with the method of visualization, and the soul above the spiritual spring was like a human at this moment, carrying an illusory sword shadow, or stabbing or slashing, and if you looked closely, you could find that these moves were the sword skills in the Eight Swords of Killing.

This is a visualization deduction exclusive to the spirit master's lineage, which can manipulate the mind and soul to deduce and practice in the Purple Mansion.

This method is mostly used in pushing spells or researching runes, and it only needs to affect a little spiritual energy, and it will not cause too many fluctuations, otherwise it is very easy to damage the Purple Mansion.

Some people are unlucky, and the spiritual method controlled by the soul is out of control, and they directly collapse themselves into fools.

At this time, Yao Ruoyu was deducing swordsmanship, his eight swords of killing had all been formed, except for the Infinite Sword, which was still ineffective, the other seven swords were already like arms and fingers, and they were extremely proficient.

So what he is doing now is to study these eight sword moves well, and use the basic swordsmanship of the Sword Building Sect as a chain to connect these eight swords.

In the past, he mostly walked standing skills, and footwork was his weakness, but as he reached the Five Realms and Nine Folds, the opponents he would deal with in the future would become more and more terrifying, so he also needed to improve his weaknesses, and this standing skill was the first thing that needed to be perfected.

In his current realm, the foundation has been solidified, and it is too difficult to change his fighting style and turn to martial arts, and it is easy to affect his own martial arts in turn, so the best way is to use basic swordsmanship as a framework to connect the eight swords, and when facing the enemy, sword after sword, like flowing water, without giving the enemy the slightest chance to counterattack.

It's just that his eight swords have different attributes, piercing, burning, slashing, and oppression, all of which are different, and it is really not easy to connect these sword moves.

His mind was immersed in the Purple Mansion, and Yao Ruoyu didn't know the passage of time, until the sword qi in the Purple Mansion was full and he couldn't continue to deduce, he had to relax his mind, open his eyes and open his mouth to spit out, and all the sword qi in the Purple Mansion was exhaled in one go, and suddenly a wisp of light smoke turned into a line, submerged into the ceiling above his head, and splashed a little sawdust.

With his eyes narrowed slightly, Yao Ruoyu reviewed the process of the previous deduction and reorganized it, and suddenly heard a shout of Wu Xue from the deck outside, and pushed open the window with a flick of his sleeves, only to find that the ship had come to Chaotianmen.

Wu Xue was originally from Chongqing, and when she saw her hometown, she immediately danced excitedly, pulling Hu Xian to point to Chaotianmen.

Zou Buyi was playing cards with Fan Difei and others, and when he looked up and saw Yao Ruoyu coming out, he hurriedly beckoned: "Lord Wang, come here?"

"Excuse me. With a wave of his hand, Yao Ruoyu walked to the deck, leaning on the railing and looking at the majestic Chaotianmen in the distance, his mind was complicated, and he inexplicably recalled the time when he and Xu Jingmiao and others returned to Chaotianmen for the first time.

At that time, everyone was only in the second and third realms, and they didn't know anything about this world, but now that they set foot here again, they are no longer those ignorant and immature young men of the past.

Just in the feeling of nostalgia, Yao Ruo frowned stupidly, and looked at the dock in the distance, at this time, there were countless ships in Chaotianmen, he glanced at it a few times, and his eyes were locked on a giant boat.

Although the distance was far away, after he blessed his eyes with spiritual magic, he still clearly saw the blood-eyed young man on the giant boat who was looking towards him from afar.

That year, outside Fuling City, someone single-handedly rode and axed the generals of the Five Golden Realms, and it was Zhang Ziqiang!

The old people reunited, Yao Ruoyu's previous sentimentality was suddenly diluted by joy, and beckoned from afar, Zhang Ziqiang also beckoned again and again on the giant boat, and after the two boats approached, the other party jumped directly and jumped onto their deck.

Yao Ruoyu's trip this time was to enter Hangzhou as a vassal king to pay tribute, so he did not hide his identity, there was a Dawen flag hanging on the ship, Zhang Ziqiang joined the army, and naturally recognized this flag.

Seeing Zhang Ziqiang suddenly appear, Hu Xian, Wu Xue, Li Huan and others were also very happy, and they all rushed over, and Zou Buyi, who finally got a good deck of cards, could only sigh helplessly when he saw this, and silently threw away the playing cards that were almost composed of *.

"Brother Yao, where are you going?" After hugging Yao Ruoyu, Zhang Ziqiang said with a smile.

Yao Ruo smiled foolishly: "Go to Hangzhou to pay tribute!

"Coincidentally, I also went to Hangzhou, several righteous brothers are in retreat to break through the five realms, and I can't get out of my body for the time being, so my father-in-law asked me to lead the team to Hangzhou," Zhang Ziqiang's bloody eyes bent slightly, a little smile, thought about it, turned around and shouted, "Zhao Zicheng, you lead the team to Hangzhou, I'll go with them." ”

The giant boat was the military warship of the Yanggu Army, and the volume was twice the size of Yao Ruoyu's ship, and when he heard Zhang Ziqiang's words, Zhao Zicheng, who had been promoted to the deputy general of the God Killing Battalion, poked his head out and said with a wry smile: "Obey the order, the little prince is careful on the road." ”

Glaring at the head, Zhang Ziqiang said angrily: "Be careful about the tribute, if something goes wrong, ask you!"

The warship of the Chu Wangfu was about to leave the dock, but Yao Ruoyu and the others were about to dock to replenish, so after the two boats passed by, Zhang Ziqiang, who had just left the land, returned to the dock with everyone again.

"What realm?" Glancing at Zhang Ziqiang, Yao Ruoyu found that he couldn't see his realm, and immediately said curiously.

"Five realms and five realms, quickly break through to the five realms and six realms," Zhang Ziqiang grinned at the corner of his mouth, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, and then asked, "Brother Yao, what about you?"

Smiling slightly, Yao Ruoyu replied slowly: "Five realms and nine folds." ”

Zhang Ziqiang sighed twice, and laughed in a low voice: "It is worthy of being the heir of that sect, and the cultivation speed is fast." ”

Yao Ruoyu laughed, patted his arm, and chuckled: "Are you married?"

Shrugging his shoulders, Zhang Ziqiang smiled evilly: "What about you, Brother Yao? I am just the prince's righteous son, and you are a real vassal king! Besides, you are five or six years older than me, and you are not married, so what am I anxious about." ”

Seeing Hu Xian and the others covering their mouths and snickering, Yao Ruoyu rolled his eyes and shouted angrily: "Why am I five or six years older than you! ”

Zhang Ziqiang smiled, his eyes were condensed, and he said solemnly: "I heard that the woman is no longer in Wenbang?"

Yao Ruoyu knew who he was talking about, and suddenly frowned, a little displeased: "That's your sister-in-law." ”

Shrugging his shoulders, Zhang Ziqiang said helplessly: "Okay, okay, sister-in-law, but my sister-in-law has been missing for a long time!

Seeing Yao Ruoyu's pale face, Zhang Ziqiang hurriedly hugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, I said the wrong thing, let's go, please eat, there is a very good beef noodle restaurant in Qianguomen, it is sweet, it must be to your taste, Brother Yao." ”

Snorted twice, Yao Ruoyu didn't continue to be angry on the previous topic, and he also knew that although everyone in the Ministry of Literature and Art openly admitted that Wanyan Fuchan was his girlfriend, many people still had a little nostalgia for this woman's origin in their hearts.

The group walked out of Chaotianmen Wharf, walked through several streets and alleys, and under the leadership of Zhang Ziqiang, they came to a noodle restaurant with a rather quaint and old decoration, there were only two guys, an old man and a young man, the old one was over sixty years old, and the younger one was only seven or eight years old, and there were three or four customers in the store.

Seeing a group of people pouring in, the little baby raised her head, sniffed, and said happily: "Brother Qiang, aren't you going to Hangdu?"

Touching the little baby's head, Zhang Ziqiang smiled and said: "There is something to delay temporarily, go, give my brother and sister a big bowl of beef noodles, the beef noodles should be enough, not coriander." ”

Seeing that the little baby nodded and ran into the kitchen with a cigarette, Yao Ruoyu chuckled and said, "It seems that you come often! ”

Zhang Ziqiang smiled, his scarlet eyes were as red as blood condensation, revealing a bit of bitterness: "This kid's father used to be the commander of the Yanggu Army, when I participated in Fuling City, it was under his father's command, when we attacked Shaanxi last year, we were ambushed, and in order to save me, his father was stabbed seven times." ”

Silently exhaled a breath of turbidity, Zhang Ziqiang's eyes reappeared: "Later, I saved it for two days, but I still couldn't survive, I didn't come much before, the noodles were too sweet, and I couldn't get used to it, but since then, I will come once every two or three days, and the grace of saving his life has not been returned to his father, so he can only repay him." ”

Yao Ruoyu was silent when he heard this, looked at the short figure running back and forth in the kitchen, and suddenly thought of the tens of thousands of soldiers in the literary and artistic army when he went out on the expedition, how many people were like the father of this little baby, buried in the battlefield, leaving the old and young at home lonely?

Hu Xian, Li Huan, and Hou Jingru all sat at another table, only Fan Difei and Zou Buyi sat with them, Fan Difei was free and easy, and didn't care too much about it, Zou Buyi shook his head with a sigh: "War is often created by the high-level, and the low-level soldiers and civilians are just victims." ”

Seeing Yao Ruoyu slanting at him, Zou Buyi smiled: "Isn't this a feeling!"

The corners of her lips twitched slightly, and Yao Ruoyu was too lazy to take care of this undisciplined guy.

After a while, the little doll brought them a bowl, Zhang Ziqiang pushed it to Yao Ruoyu, the latter was not polite, picked up the chopsticks and ate it, as Zhang Ziqiang said, the taste is sweet, quite in line with the taste of Jiaxing people.

After eating noodles, everyone got up and returned to the dock, at this time the Tiance sergeant had already replenished the supplies, and when everyone got on the boat, the ship set sail again and continued to sail in the direction of Hangzhou.
