Chapter 16: The Dugu Valve
The three great masters of martial arts were almost deified.
At the beginning, Yang Guang conquered Goryeo three times, and the troops came to the city, all relying on Fu Cailin to turn the tide, it can be said that he turned the tide of the war with the power of one person, so that Yang Guang returned without success, which created his supreme position.
As a person in the rivers and lakes, you can't know who the Goryeo Emperor is, but you can't know who Fu Cailin, the master of Yijian, is. In Goryeo, Fu Cailin's words were even more effective than the emperor.
Now that Fu Cailin was defeated and died, this news was comparable to a nine-day thunderstorm, which exploded the entire martial arts.
In Luoyang City, everyone was talking about it.
Although Qi Fang's poems are amazing, they are still much inferior to Fu Cailin's death, and they are only spread among some literati who don't care about the affairs of the rivers and lakes.
"The one who killed Fu Cailin was a very young woman, a person from the Central Plains, whose name is unknown, nicknamed 'Mingyu Fairy', who loves to wear a red suit, ice muscles and jade bones, and is as beautiful as a fairy."
This is all the description of the Mingyu Fairy, other than that, there is no information, this person seems to appear out of thin air.
Mingyu Fairy killed Fu Cailin, and naturally took his place and became the new Grand Master, and some people called him the Supreme Grand Master.
Qi Fang listened for a while, then felt bored, came out of the Dong family restaurant, strolled on the Tianjin Bridge, leisurely enjoyed the beautiful scenery of Luoshui flowing, and was content.
At this moment, a light footstep like a fallen leaf came behind him, and then a voice like a silver bell sounded: "You are the 'Hundred Playboys' Qi Fang?" ”
Qi Fang turned around, looked at the comer, and arched his hand: "It's down there, I don't know who the girl is?" ”
It was a young woman under twenty years of age, petite and delicate, with a pretty face, wearing a very elaborate black samurai suit, which made her skin look fairer, and her body exuded a cold but energetic alluring aura.
Even Qi Fang, who was accustomed to seeing beautiful women, saw this person, and felt that his eyes lit up and secretly praised.
"I heard that you practiced the longevity technique that no one had ever cultivated, and not long ago you swept away the four great masters, and made Shen Luoyan's mother-in-law suffer a loss, right?" The delicate girl asked.
"Isn't it a little unfair that the girl knows everything about the next thing, but I don't know who the girl is yet." Qi Fang said as he guessed the identity of this woman in his heart.
"It's you, take me with a sword."
As the girl spoke, she pulled out her long sword with a choking sound, and slashed towards Qi Fang without saying anything, the sword momentum was as elegant as a hong, and the angle was very tricky, like an antelope hanging horns, exquisite.
With this sword alone, he can be called a kendo master.
Qi Fang stepped on Ling Bo's slight steps, and his body was out of the enveloping range of this female sword momentum in a flash.
The girl seemed to have guessed that he would have this move, her expression did not change at all, the sword momentum changed as expected, the transition was like flowing water, there was no stagnation, the cold light flickered, and the sword qi rolled towards him like an insect with bones, and at the same time, she also took a very mysterious step under her feet, chasing after him.
"I know, you are the little phoenix of the Dugu family." Qi Fang's eyes lit up, his left hand reached out, bent his fingers flicked, and he continuously struck on the sword body, only to hear the three soft sounds of "Ding Ding Ding", and the continuous sword shadow suddenly disappeared.
In the whole world, a very young woman with such a skilled swordsmanship can be counted on one hand, which is nothing more than Concubine Xuan, Fu Junchang, Shang Xiuxun, Dugu Feng......
Just guess it.
Dugu Feng is the pearl daughter of Dugu Valve, with strong martial arts, profound swordsmanship, and his strength has surpassed that of his father's masters, second only to You Chuhong, the first master of Dugu Valve, and can be regarded as the second master of the Dugu family.
The family martial arts of the Dugu family are called "Biluo Hongchen", which includes Biluo footwork and Hongchen swordsmanship, but this kind of martial arts does not seem to be suitable for men to practice, otherwise how could it make the Dugu family prosperous and yang, and the most powerful ones are actually two women.
"Who is the little phoenix, don't be so affectionate, okay?" Dugu Feng suddenly put away the long sword as if he was out of the sword, snorted lightly, but there was no displeasure on his face, and said: "Your martial arts are good, if you have time, you must have a good competition." This time, I am here to invite you to the house as a guest for grandma, let's leave quickly, don't let grandma wait for a long time. ”
You Chuhong is the longest-lived of the four major gates, living for nearly a hundred years, with a very high seniority, and he is still above Ning Daoqi, the first scattered person in the Central Plains. At the age of sixty, You Chuhong abandoned the sword and staff, created a set of cloak and staff methods, and was very good at group fighting. However, due to the fact that he went mad during the practice and injured his lungs, although he was cured in the end, he still had a cough and asthma.
Qi had a doubt in his heart, and he was very puzzled. It's only been more than an hour since I arrived in Luoyang, why does your lord seem to know that I'm coming? Qi Fang said.
"You also underestimate your own fame and the intelligence ability of the gate lord forces." Dugu Feng glanced at him with smart eyes. "It's not just our Dugu family, I guess the other forces have a portrait of you in their hands, and when you entered the city, the news had already reached them, but I was just one step ahead."
"Ha, I didn't expect that I was so popular, and all the major forces wanted to invite me." Qi Fang is a little complacent.
Dugufeng rolled his eyes and said frankly: "If it is in normal times, it is not so exaggerated. But at present, the situation is tense, and the city of Luoyang will be stormy, which is different from the past. You are also a master, and if you can win it over, it will naturally be better, even if you can't win it, it's good to know your intentions in advance. ”
"I see, it hurts Qi to be sentimental." Qi Fang snorted.
The two crossed the Tianjin Bridge and walked in the direction of the north of the city.
Tianjin Bridge spans the Luo River that crosses the city, is the pivotal road connecting the north and south streets, the north of the bridge is the imperial city and the palace city of the Sui Dynasty, and not far from the west side of the imperial city, is the courtyard of Dugu Valve.
The Luohe River that traverses the east and west divides the whole Luoyang City into two, simply and roughly speaking, the northern city district is the aristocratic district, the southern city district is the common people's district, and the Dingding Street of the main gate of the palace city is the boundary, the northern city is divided into two, the west district is mostly noble, and the east district is mostly rich gentry.
After taking Xu tea, the two came to the courtyard of Dugu Valve.
Dugu Valve's old house is in Chang'an, Xijing, Luoyang City is only a courtyard, although it is only a courtyard, but compared to the official palace of other mansions, it is much more majestic, there is no shortage of pavilions and pavilions in the garden, the two crossed the small bridge and flowing water, walked through the overlapping houses and the corridor of nine curves and eighteen bends, and saw You Chuhong in a bright hall.
"The younger generations are all together, and I have seen the old lady." Qi Fang clenched his fists and looked at You Chuhong.
This hundred-year-old woman was dressed in a black robe, a white silk blouse, gray hair, a face covered with deep wrinkles, and a rickety figure, full of aristocratic style.
You Chu's red leaf-like eyelids were half raised, and Yu Sen's gaze fell on Qi Fang's body, which actually made him feel his face hot. Qi was a little surprised, but he didn't look at it at all, his eyes were lucky, he stared back, and at the same time praised in his heart, this old lady is so deep in her internal strength, this is the real eyes like electricity, and the void room is white.
This person is a genuine grandmaster-level master, and in terms of internal strength alone, he is definitely not below the three major grandmasters. Of course, a person's strength should not only look at internal strength, but also include multiple factors such as skills, experience, mentality, and realm.
Even so, You Chuhong's strength is on the same level as Zhu Yuyan, Yuwen Injury, Huang Gongcuo and others.
"Young people are very good, and among the many juniors that the old man has seen, you are the first."
You Chuhong's eyelids were half-drooping, as if he was not open, his voice was soft and clear, and his breath was full, not like an old man at all.
There was no discoloration on her face, but she was horrified in her heart. You Chuhong asked Qi to come over, originally thinking that it was to give him a dismount or subdue him, but at this time he changed his mind, and secretly thought in his heart: "This person's internal strength has been perfected to the realm and reached the super-first-class realm, if he does not fall, he will be at least a grandmaster-level master in the future, and it is not impossible for a great grandmaster." ”
Dugufeng listened to You Chuhong's evaluation, and was a little unconvinced, hugging her arm and coquettishly saying, "Grandma, what about me." ”
"You're a little worse than him."
You Chuhong glanced at Dugu Feng dotingly, and at the same time thought about the countermeasures for Qi Fang in his heart. "It is impossible for a master of this level to be subdued, he can only be won over as much as possible, even if he can't be wooed, he can't be an enemy, if he is an enemy, he must be eliminated as soon as possible."
Although she had already given Qi Fang a very high evaluation, she couldn't guess that Qi Fang had already hidden most of his strength, and only a small part of it had been revealed.
"Hmph."
Dugu Feng snorted angrily and whispered, "I haven't been beaten, who knows." ”
You Chuhong laughed, didn't pay attention to her anymore, and said to Qi Fang: "You and Feng'er are both the best of the younger generation, you should move around and communicate more." ”
Qi Fang said: "The old lady has won the award." Miss Feng'er is innocent and full of spirituality, and she has won the true inheritance of her predecessors, and the younger generations should ask her for more advice. ”
You Chuhong laughed, patted Dugu Feng's back, and said, "Feng'er, you take him around for a visit, you don't have to accompany my old woman." ”
"Yes." Dugufeng responded obediently.
