Chapter 23: The Return
March 2
In the early morning, the sun is rising, the fog is still thick, and in the middle of the world, a vague figure sits cross-legged, and the white mist is entwined between the mouth and nose. Like a swimming dragon. The golden blood is surging, and it seems to have the power to move mountains.
This person is none other than Chu Lan!
Chu Lan practiced for half a month, and the ape flew into a small success, and he was even more worried about the situation at home, so he was eager to go out, so he adjusted his state, reached the peak, and was ready to give it a try.
As the sun rises, the sunlight shines through the dense fog, and under the refraction of the water mist, it emits a colorful light, gradually dissipating the fog, revealing the real scene
On the cliff wall of the strange peaks and strange stones, there is a cave, the sun hits the slender figure in the cave, the young man bathes in the morning glow, the golden is bright, and it is very beautiful
Chu Lan stood up, his body had been adjusted to the peak, his limbs were stretched, and his whole body crackled
He practiced the nine diagrams recorded in the blood cutting technique, meditated on the numb body, was full of vitality, and his blood was more vigorous.
Looking up to the sky, his eyes smiled and groaned, and the corners of his mouth hooked a meaningful arc, and he said lightly
"Jin family, not killing me is the biggest mistake you made"
"Master is coming back!"
He let out laughter, and the laughter echoed throughout the world!
......
Three hours passed, and an ape-like figure jumped out of the world.
Being in the dark, unable to see the hope of life, and suddenly seeing the light again, even if he didn't do anything, just blowing the wind and smelling the fragrance of the earth, Chu Lan also felt like a dream!
Invisibly, Chu Lan's state of mind has been quietly changing, as if he has regained a life, originally kendo was his only one, and now he found that there are many happy places in this world, and playing the rivers and lakes, and doing chivalry and righteousness is also an excellent state of cultivation.
He suppressed the thought in his heart that he couldn't wait to go home, Chu Lan knew that everyone thought that he was dead, but for him, it was the most favorable condition.
The enemy is in the light, I am in the dark, be a surprise soldier, win by surprise, maybe you can turn the tide and change the fate of the entire family!
He did not come directly to the back mountain of the Chu family, but went around to the outskirts of the Yinyue Forest, the junction with Lanzhou.
First of all, I found a place with better feng shui to bury the body of the real person, because I was afraid that the bones of the black hair would change and bury it very deeply, and I was afraid that it would be discovered by others, so I hastily set up a monument "The Tomb of the Teacher"
Presumably, even if they were seen by others, they would not believe that this ordinary small mound was actually buried by the legendary character.
After doing all this, he kowtowed respectfully three times and then came to the lake to wash his body, took out a black robe from the Sumeru ring, straightened his hair, took a wooden branch and coiled it up, and strode out
......
The spring breeze supports the green leaves, and the Yao grass is fragrant
Next to the street is a restaurant, although the location is remote, there is no shortage of customers.
Most of them are ascetics on the road, resting their feet, drinking tea, and licking blood at the tip of a knife, and the bounty hunters who are happy in the rivers and lakes plan to go to the Silver Moon Forest to hunt beasts.
Many of them were also in black clothes like Chu Lan. The cloak was pulled very low, and it was impossible to see that it was fat and thin. Therefore, Chu Lan, who was dressed in black and carrying a simple sword, did not attract the attention of others.
Chu Lan ate the spirit fruit for a month, although he could fill his stomach, he felt bitter in his stomach, and smelled the aroma of wine and meat in the restaurant, and couldn't help but be hungry and stepped into it.
The shopkeeper saw that it was a young man in a black robe with a sword, and knew that he was a good man, so he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.
He led Chu Lan to the edge of the first floor, took out a stool for Chu Lan to sit down, took off the white towel around his neck, symbolically wiped the table, made him a bowl of tea, and then put out the thief's sign and smirked, and asked
"Hey, hey, this master, what do you want to eat?"
He is not young, and when he laughs, the skin on his whole face seems to be twisted together, not to mention how obscene. Chu Lan couldn't help but feel funny when she saw his face.
"A pound of beef in sauce, a pound of good wine. Three pounds of crepes, a plate of duck tongue, and two side dishes at random"
Chu Lan took out a large ingot of silver from his arms, "The rest is for you"
When the shopkeeper heard this, his smile became stronger, the skin on his face wrinkled even more, and his eyes were almost squeezed out by the meat. Hurriedly thanked the uncle.
Chu Lan waved his hand, and he went down
After a while, the food was served, Chu Lan poured a big bowl of wine, and ate a large piece of meat, the food in the market was different from that in his own house, not pursuing delicacy and nutritional balance, but it could better satisfy Chu Lan's taste buds who had not eaten normal food for a long time
Gobbling it up, he ate it for a while, and he began to look at this tavern, most of the people on the edge were people in black clothes and black robes like Chu Lan, most of these people were doing the work of licking blood at the tip of a knife, mixed in the beast forest, and there was a heavy smell of blood on their bodies.
In some of the places in the middle, there are some gentlemen in gorgeous costumes, tired of cultivation, sneaking out to eat some "wild meat".
Chu Lan poured himself another bowl of wine, although he didn't drink much, because he had practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he was at the age of his blood and strength, the amount of alcohol was not bad.
His gaze continued to sweep, and when he saw a corner in the southeast corner, his gaze froze!
I saw that this person was also dressed in white, with a face like a knife, starry eyebrows and sword eyes, calm and resolute, and a slender posture. A cold and arrogant air. In this wine shop, which is all covered in black and can't be on the table, it is so special
What Chu Lan noticed today was his sword.
This is a snake-scale black sheath long sword, the style is very ancient, the sword is three feet and three inches long, as a person who uses the sword, Chu Lan, as if he saw a peerless sword like spring water through the scabbard, he also knows that the proportion of the sword length and the body is coordinated, in order to exert the true power of a sword.
And what's even more remarkable is.
His hands!
Sweating in the palms of the hands is a taboo for people who use swords, his hands are big and dry, not as rough as the hands of people who often use swords in the rivers and lakes, but they are well maintained, slender and powerful!
"This is a master, a sword aura, although restrained, there is a sharp edge between his eyebrows, obviously he has been practicing swords for many years. But people who practice swords often will have a very thick cocoon on their thumbs, and only after each sword practice, soaking it in a special potion can it be maintained so well, it's not simple!" Chu Lan secretly admired in his heart
Feeling Chu Lan's gaze, he turned his head and looked at each other, both of them were shocked!
His eyes are like two cold lamps, even at night, they can pierce the darkness. The edge is restrained, but the sword that crosses from time to time is like a meteor, difficult to catch, but dazzling!
And Chu Lan's eyes are pure and clean, he is not holding a sword for life, just because of his love for swords, in this chaotic era of rivers and lakes, there are not many such pure swordsmen, like the scorching sun, flowing gold and stones, and sword energy.
This is the eye contact that only two sword masters can understand, and it belongs to two swordsmen who cherish each other.
He nodded, and Chu Lan responded with a smile!
"The Jin family, the Chu family has been making a lot of trouble recently, have you heard?"
At this moment, Chu Lan heard the sound of a low-pitched voice, not far from his left, there was a table of Chinese costume boys, and one of the thin people said
"Of course I heard that it is said that the son of the Chu family was pushed down the end of the world by the people of the Jin family, and his life and death are uncertain! Chu Zhenxiong was furious and attacked many of the Jin family's properties."
"Life and death are uncertain, I haven't heard of silver coming out alive under the end of the world!"
"Don't talk about that waste prince, although the swordsmanship is indeed amazing, the pulse spring is as solid as a rock, there is no way to find the best spiritual inducer in the city, if you really meet a monk master, it is useless to have superb swordsmanship" The other two agreed, and said yes again and again!
Chu Lan heard a bitter smile in her heart.
Since he was a child, his five senses were beyond ordinary people, and he ate the Vermilion Bird Fruit that improved his divine sense, and his hearing was further strengthened, although they lowered their voices, Chu Lan could still hear clearly.
"Hey, if two tigers fight, there will be an injury, which of the Jin family or the Chu family do you think has a greater chance of winning?"
"I think it's the Chu family, after all, the old man of the Chu family made great achievements and became famous decades ago, and now his cultivation may be even more unfathomable, and the Jin family is only afraid that no one can beat him!"
"It's hard to say, I heard that the old man sat on the death pass in order to seek an opportunity to break through, and he hasn't appeared for a long time, but I'm afraid that there is a problem with the practice, and he has gone mad, and he has already sat down, and it is said that the Jin family invited a big man from overseas!"
Chu Lan was shocked, his grandfather had indeed been locked up for several years, but he knew that his grandfather was fine, and he really didn't know about the Jin family's invitation to a big man, no wonder the Jin family had become more arrogant and fearless recently. ”
Suddenly, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves outside the door, and two dragon scales and red-blooded horses, as if they were poured with steel juice and molten iron, their eyes were like copper bells, and they were heroic and majestic, and they broke straight in.
"Herod"
The horse neighed, the man stood up, and the two men in green clothes on the horse, as soon as they pulled the reins, sat on the saddle like roots, and did not move at all!
The two of them were as bronze as bronze, as strong as an iron tower, wearing black costumes, embroidered with a lion roaring sun and moon picture, a samurai belt on their heads, and silver dragon boots on their feet. One carries an axe, the other carries a spear!
Suddenly there was a commotion in the hall!
"This should be the Black Wood Cliff Chief Scoop Handle and sit down the "Copper Axe and Silver Gun" Tang Tian and Tang Zhen two brothers."
Chu Lan was stunned, guessing in his heart.
As soon as the two of them came in, their eyes swept over everyone, shining brightly, and the murderous aura was churning, and the people who were scanned by the two of them. It's better to have Mang on his back, busy bowing his head to drink and eat vegetables, for fear of getting into trouble!
The two brothers with copper axes and silver guns, when their eyes fell on the cold and arrogant figure, their eyes paused, the fierce light in their eyes brightened, and the murderous aura became even heavier!
"Oh, little thief, kill my brother in Blackwood Cliff, you have to die today!"
Another also shouted "Take your life"
The two of them slapped the saddle and dismounted, holding blades, spears and axes together, and at the same time beckoned to Ouyang Qingfeng!
Ouyang Qingfeng was not in a hurry, his eyes were calm and calm when Mount Tai collapsed in front of him and his face did not change, but the cold air was not restrained, and the temperature of the entire wine shop suddenly dropped a lot for a while
He stood up, and suddenly there was a flash of sword light in the air, and there was a sword groan, no one could see when he drew the sword, the sword was out of the sheath, and there was no movement of flowers, but it was like a spring breeze, smooth and natural.
The two of them only felt that a blow hit the air, and the strength of their whole bodies was invisible, just like catkins being blown away in the spring breeze, and snowflakes being melted in the sun!
The breeze horizontal sword overheads the two-person weapons, and uses the sword to lead downward!
The two brothers only felt that they had lost their center of gravity, and their whole bodies were fluttering, and they were about to fall down, but after all, the two of them were old rivers and lakes, pressing down on their knees, twisting their hips as a whole, twisting their waists and hips, and then kicking out, the two of them defended as an attack, and at the same time used a whip leg!
And Qingfeng is still standing upright, with a straight waist, letting the iron legs of the two of them sweep!
All I heard was the sound of a bell
The two brothers only felt their legs kick against the iron, and their whole body shook violently, and their feet slumped back several steps
Chu Lan admired in her heart, "This Ouyang Qingfeng has practiced so solidly, it has the taste of Shaolin iron cloth shirts."
Qingfeng is smiling, not at all like he is fighting someone else's life and death!
Pointing out with both hands, he said
"Go out and fight, don't spoil your drinking Yaxing"
And he threw out another ingot of silver
Fluttering down to the desk of the shopkeeper, accurate and stable, this is caused by the use of internal force to support, and the internal strength can be seen in general
After that, he walked out of the restaurant, like a leisurely stroll, not afraid of the two of them suddenly making a move, standing quietly on the street!
The breeze blew and lifted strands of his hair
The long sword in his hand held a few beautiful sword flowers in the air, and then his eyes were sharp, like two sharp swords, and the eyes of the people who pierced them hurt directly!
Yao refers to the two brothers of the copper axe and the red spear
