Chapter Sixty-Eight: Draw the Sword
The Imperial Royal Arena was built in 1860. When the empire finally expelled the barbarians to the far north and mysteriously disappeared, the armies returned one after another, and the Western Legion, the most elite legion force in all mankind, also returned to Yanjing.
After being inspected by Taizu, the highly decorated Expeditionary Legion was dismantled on the spot and divided into three parts.
Some of the disabled or too old Demon Zhan joined the Imperial Guard and became officers of the glorious Yanjing Guard.
A small number of the sons of the founding meritorious clan and the outstanding performance of the magic war broke away from the sequence of conquest to the west and were enriched into the reorganized border guards of the empire as chief officers at all levels.
The most elite main force of the Western Expeditionary Corps, together with the main force of the Northern Expeditionary Corps later formed by the empire, was merged into the Far Northern Legion of the Frontier Army.
In the months when the emperor's [***] forces were reorganized, the Zhengxi Army was stationed in a barracks outside Yanjing because it was the only unit that was fully organized and subject to Taizu's review.
Suddenly coming down from the fierce battlefield, the soldiers who were bored and all kinds of empty and lonely in life, especially the demon wars, all felt unable to adapt. However, this legion has fought bloody battles one after another, and the proportion of surviving officers and soldiers who have survived the demon war is already outrageously high -- the name of the first army of mankind is not blown out.
As a result, the large groups of demons were extremely bored. For a time, Yanjing was simply full of smoke, and there were fights everywhere.
The Legion Demon Wars would not take this kind of fight with the surname of the Legion seriously, but this really frightened the people of Yanjing. They weren't worried that the heroes' demon wars would be against them, but every day when they walked down the street, they suddenly heard-
"Vermilion tomatoes! I've long been used to seeing you, and today I finally got what I wanted, and I died slut! Magic Skill - The First Style of Breaking the Firmament! ”
"Li Tudou, you villain! I've finally bumped into you! That's what I mean, come on, come on, watch my magic skill - devouring the starry sky! ”
Hearing these words like that, and then two red-eyed people who met cautiously avoided them, and found an open space for a scuffle, which was not the same thing.
……
It so happened that in the process of crossing the vast desert and being besieged from two sides, the coveting of fruits and vegetables was simply to a crazy point. Even the nicknames of a large number of fruits and vegetables were born in the army, and even a watermelon has various names such as big watermelon, small watermelon, watermelon head, watermelon skin, Rongcheng watermelon, etc.
In the end, when the Yanjing Police Department was exhausted in this fruit and vegetable war, even the prison was already full of fruit and vegetable masters who had to be carefully served, and it became a fruit wholesale department and vegetable market. And the storage is extremely rich, and peaches alone can be sold after 180 varieties.
Considering that Yanjing's original martial arts arena had been destroyed in the Reading Power War, it was necessary to build another one.
The imperial royal martial arts arena was in the face of Taizu crying and laughing, and the cabinet Zhou Shoufu was black into the bottom of the pot; In the hustle and bustle of the people of Yanjing enthusiastically donating money and materials to offer advice, especially the Yanjing Police Department, which is smashing pots and selling iron to support the army; Under the supervision of the Ministry of Imperial Construction, all buildings are directly molded with magic energy sequences, and the masons are all used in the legion magic war...... With miraculous speed, it came into being gorgeously.
It is located in the western suburbs of Yanjing, not far from the military camp. It covers an extremely wide area, has a wide competition place and a large number of spectators, can receive thousands of people to fight in a centralized brawl and let nearly 100,000 people watch comfortably. It is equipped with various ancillary facilities such as leisure center, swimming pool, magic cinema, restaurant, hospital, etc., integrating intimate services such as life and entertainment, fighting, etc., which is a must-go place for the soldiers of the Western Expeditionary Corps in their leisure time.
A hundred years later, the aftermath of the war gradually disappeared from the body of the imperial [***] team, but the imperial royal martial arts arena was preserved. The big martial arts arena outside has naturally become the first choice for all kinds of large-scale activities in Yanjing. And the ancillary facilities inside have gradually become a good place for high-level powers.
After all, in order to prevent the enemy from being too easy to listen to the details, according to the rules handed down by the ancestors. They all have some reservations that can't be made public, and they also need a hidden place to settle some personal affairs, don't they?
……
Deep in the Royal Arena.
In the seats outside a VIP venue, there were already a lot of people sitting in the room, but the martial arts arena in the middle of the venue was empty. It looked as if a large group of noble children had come here to chat. But it seems, what are they waiting for.
Xiao Ledong staggered in, and after looking around for a week, he was already sighing: "Yo, haven't you started yet?" ”
He smacked his lips, and was already not far from the door, so he found a random place to sit down. Soon a large number of noble children gathered around him.
"Brother Dong, what Guo Lie said, is it true? The heroic Xie clan, who has always avoided Star City and saw the head and tail of the Shenlong before the attack, the two sons actually met today to duel? Or is it for a beauty? This news is also a bit exciting, right? ”
"You idiots, do you still need to ask? Brother Dong is here, so naturally he is not far from ten. Otherwise, do you think that a genius Royal Demon War Academy student like Dong Ge is so idle? ”
"That's right, Brother Dong, you are the eldest grandson of the founding prince, you must know a lot about this, and reveal the truth about why you are like this?"
"I know a." Xiao Ledong was angry when he heard it.
"As soon as I got up, my grandfather came and told me to come to the play. Damn, I was stuffed in the car before I had a beautiful hairstyle - it was too much! I don't have any hair, and I can't see me, the best descendant who fights for my Xiao family, take care of my hair. You say, is there such a grandfather? ”
He said indignantly.
The onlookers suddenly rolled their eyes and dispersed.
……
As he spoke, the group walked in.
The one who took the lead was a seemingly handsome young man, who was Xie Yun. Behind him was an old man and Guo Lie, who seemed to have never seen before.
"Uncle Pan, please go and sit down, just watch the formation for your little nephew, and I'll wait for him in the middle of the venue." Xie Yun respectfully owed the debt and said to the old man.
The old man glanced at him lightly: "The second young master is serious. ”
Then, he went straight to the stands.
"I say, what did you suddenly invite your father to send to protect you?" Guo Lie looked at the old man's back, stabbed Xie Yun and said softly.
"Several ministers in the palace have always only obeyed my father's orders, even if my cheap brother leaves the house, even if this old Pan is assigned by my father to stay in Yanjing to protect me, I usually can't command him. Now, it's time for me to take this opportunity to tell them who will be the future master of the Heroic Martyr's Mansion. ”
Xie Yun also looked at the old man's back and said slowly.
Immediately, he turned to Guo Lie again: "You can also go to the stage, the appointed time is almost up, I guess my brother should also come." ”
Xiao Ledong's ears twitched, and he looked at Xie Yun, with a faint hint of mockery flashing in his eyes.
Can't hold it back so soon? was promoted to the Great Demon War, and he couldn't help but use it to attack his brother, and even showed off his might in front of his retainers. Xie Yun...... Are you here to play what is a villain? No wonder my brother can't get used to you.
He opened his mouth, and was about to say hello to Xie Yun, teasing and teasing for a few words, when he saw another figure walking slowly at the door.
That's what it is...... Shainin?
Xiao Ledong stared at the heroic young man who was slowly walking in, and raised his eyebrows in surprise.
Nothing special......
He thought.
……
The entire venue suddenly fell silent with the appearance of the young man, and buzzed again.
"This is the other protagonist?"
"It should be him, you look at the way their two faces look, do you feel something that seems to look alike? Kindness...... This one seems to be the elder brother, named Shainin, who is said to be serving in the Far North Legion. ”
"I really don't understand them, how can you say that these two sons of the Xie family are so jealous for a woman? And it's ridiculous to use a duel to determine the belonging, what does that woman think? They don't take people and women too seriously, do they? ”
"Hell knows, I'm waiting to see a good show anyway."
……
The crowd was whispering. Xie Ning had slowly come to the center of the venue, he glanced around, and a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.
He opened his mouth lightly: "When I came, I seemed to hear two noble sons staring at me talking. It is said that it has been rumored in the Yanjing aristocratic circle recently that we are dueling in order to decide the belonging of Su Su? ”
He looked at Xie Yun, and a hint of sarcasm was revealed: "I never thought that we could decide anything about her, if the rumors were like this...... Hello and goodbye. ”
After saying that, he actually pulled out his legs and left.
When the crowd heard this, there was already an uproar, and the relationship was really a variety of twists and turns, as if there was a wealth of inside information?
……
Xie Yun's face changed, he was actually meticulous?!
Mother was right, he was really a difficult person to deal with, he looked at the young man's back, and his heart became more and more jealous of him.
But...... Hmph, as long as I can fight with you, you are destined to become history!
Xie Yun thought about it, and quickly stepped forward to stop in front of Xie Ning, his face was already full of astonishment: "How is it possible, brother, you heard it right, right?" ”
Xie Ning looked at him coldly and did not speak.
I saw that Xie Yun suddenly turned his head as if he remembered something, and he was already looking at the sidelines: "Brother Lie? Brother Lie! ”
Guo Lie walked over with a sad face, and before he got closer, he saw that Xie Yun was already scolding with a scolding face: "Is it your ghost?" As I said, my duel with my brother will not involve anything, and you will not have to be sentimental! What's the matter with you? ”
"Yes...... Yes......" Guo Lie replied helplessly.
……
"Brother, what do you see......" Xie Yun turned to Xie Ning again, but smiled slightly.
"It turned out to be just a dog barking, but it was so well known throughout the city that it seemed to be too good at barking...... Okay, then don't make an example, tell this dog to get out, feed it a little later, and don't always let it bark when it sees people. Shainin said indifferently.
Xie Yun suddenly showed a hint of joy when he heard this, he glanced at Guo Lie and waved his hand secretly.
Guo Lie stared at Xie Ning deadly, a trace of madness and humiliation flashed in his eyes. Eventually, he didn't say anything and retreated.
……
Xiao Ledong in the distance also looked at Xie Ning, but there was a smile in his eyes.
Grandpa rushed me here in a hurry, just telling me that I had to find an opportunity to remind him and clarify the matter before I was beaten......
Looks like there's nothing wrong with me. Gotta watch the show quietly. Xiao Ledong was already comfortably leaning back in his chair.
This Xie Ning is really not bad, and his mind is indeed extremely meticulous. And that mouth...... Tsk, that guy named Guo Lie was really wronged. He shook his head and thought.
"Brother, then we'll ...... Begin? Xie Yun checked the bladeless long sword that had already been selected and held in his hand, and said with a smile.
"After drawing your sword, don't call me brother anymore." Xie Ning said slowly, he looked around the field, and chose a sword from the weapon rack in his left hand.
Slowly, his right hand was already slowly pressing on the hilt of the sword.
"Jiangnan Star City Heroic Martyr Xie Clan's sister-in-law, Xie Yun, please advise." Xie Yun had already saluted with his sword.
"The head of the Xie family in the extreme north, Xie Ning, please advise." Xie Ning also pressed his sword and bowed slightly.
There was an uproar in the crowd again, where did this come from the Far North Xie family? Could it be that this Xie clan has split in this generation? How can I not know?
The sidelines are chattering and disturbing.
In the field, in the sound of a clear sound, two snow-bright long swords have been pulled out at the same time!
