Chapter Twenty-Five: When Things Go Wrong, There Must Be Demons
In the center of Donglai City, there is a mansion, called Zhaoyao, the mansion is not big, but there are heavy guards, it is jointly guarded by the city lord's mansion and the people of the four major families, here, it is the entrance to Zhaoyao Cave.
Today, on the third day of the third month of March, when the entrance was opened, the four major families led their respective clansmen to the entrance early, but after arriving at the entrance, they found that a group of people had arrived earlier than them and blocked their way in front of the door.
This group of people is the people of the Imperial Sword Sect who came to Donglai City some time ago.
The leader is an old man, with a childish face, carrying an ancient sword, and has a bit of fairy wind bones. He stood in the middle of the crowd, looked at the people of the four major families with a smile, and said, "All fellow Daoists are well, the old man is called Xuanjian." ”
Everyone in the four major families knew that this old man must be a bad person, but they were afraid that he was a great power to know his fate, and they didn't dare to be too presumptuous, so the heads of the four major families stepped forward and saluted the old man one by one.
The head of the Xi family is named Xi Yuanzhang, the early stage of the cave is cultivated, the head of the Peng family is named Peng Difeng, the middle stage of the cave is cultivated, the head of the Lang family is named Lang Shantai, and the late stage of the cave is cultivated. As for the head of the Fan family, it is Fan Yunxiao, and he is also the cultivation of the late stage of the Cave Xuan Realm.
After each of them saluted, Lang Shantai, who was the highest in cultivation, took the lead in speaking: "I don't know why my predecessors stopped me from going to the road?"
The old man didn't answer, but a middle-aged man behind him came out of the crowd, hugged everyone in the four major families, and said: "Poor Dao Zhengyang, I heard that there is a hole in the city lord's mansion, I wonder if I can go in and take a look?"
The four masters secretly thought, sure enough, they really came to the swaggering cave, but the swaggering cave is the lifeblood of Donglai City, how can they let others get involved, so they categorically refused.
Lang Shantai said in a deep voice: "This swaggering cave can only enter fifty people every ten years, and we ourselves are not enough, so we really can't give it to you anymore, and we can't help this matter." ”
That Zhengyang seemed to have expected this result, and continued unhurriedly: "Daoist friends, don't be busy refusing first, let's listen to our sincerity first, my sect is willing to exchange a hundred misty saplings, noncommittal?"
The four masters still know about this maze tree, which is shaped like a tree, full of black textures, but it can shine in all directions at night. The greatest function of this tree is to help monks calm their minds and eliminate distracting thoughts, which is also a rare spiritual object. If it is a mature tree, it is not impossible to consider, but if it is a seedling, it is a different matter, because the tree grows very slowly, and it takes about 1,000 years to grow, and it can only be effective after it grows up. From this point of view, the abacus of the white wolf played by the other party with empty gloves, with something that has been useless for a thousand years, wants to get the right to use the swagger cave in the future.
Of course, the four masters would not agree, and Lang Shantai sneered: "Is this the sincerity of your sect?"
Zhengyang replied: "Yes, what does Brother Dao think?"
Lang Shantai flatly refused: "This matter is absolutely impossible?"
When Zhengyang heard this, his face also turned cold, and he said coldly: "That's not up to you, this swaggering cave sky, my sect is settled." ”
Lang Shantai was furious: "What, you still want to use it." ”
Zhengyang replied coldly: "What about being strong?"
As soon as the words fell, an ethereal voice suddenly sounded among the crowd: "Oh, then how do you want to use force." ”
Xuanjian's body was slightly shocked, and then returned to normal, and said with a smile: "Qingqiu Daoyou is here, the old man is polite." ”
Everyone wanted to look from a distance, and saw a middle-aged man in a simple robe walking with more than ten people, the leader, it was the city lord Qingqiu from the east, in the early days of knowing the fate realm, this city lord had been in retreat for many years, and he didn't expect to come today. But now that the city lord is here, everyone has the backbone. Because in the city from the east, only the city lord can defeat the Xuanjian.
That Qingqiu didn't seem to be walking fast, but he had the feeling of shrinking the ground into inches, and in an instant, he came to everyone's side, looked at Xuanjian, and was not polite, went straight to the point, and said in a deep voice: "Daoyou is going to war?"
Xuanjian looked at Qingqiu, his eyes flashed imperceptibly, and he secretly discussed, it seems that the sect's estimation is a little wrong, this Qingqiu's realm has improved again, and it is not under him.
After a little groaning, he thought about it in his heart, and said with a smile: "Daoist friends are too worried, why should they be so tense." Fang Cai was offended, and asked Taoist friends to atone for their sins. ”
Since the other party was soft, Qingqiu didn't want to make any extraneous branches, so he said: "In this case, please go back to Daoyou, and when I finish today, I should come to visit." ”
Xuan Jian didn't get out of the way, but changed his words and said: "Wait, according to the laws of the Great Qin Empire, we and the people outside can challenge the City Lord's Mansion, and if we win, we can put forward a condition, as long as the City Lord's Mansion has the ability to do it, we must not refuse, right?"
Qingqiu's eyes narrowed, and he said: "Yes, my Great Qin Empire does have this law for the sake of the people's comfort and enjoyment, and I don't want to forge ahead, what, do you want to challenge me?"
Xuan Jian shook his head and said with a smile: "According to the laws of the Great Qin Empire, the rules of the challenge are proposed by us, and the time and place are determined by you, right?"
Qingqiu nodded: "Yes, then please draw the next path from the Taoist friends, and I will wait for the next." ”
Xuan Jian smiled and confidently set the rules: "There are seven people on both sides of you and me, and the age must be under thirty years old.
Qingqiu knew that the other party must be strange in setting this rule, but he had to agree to it, because the Great Qin Empire has its own pride, no matter when, no matter where, it will never be afraid of war.
Qingqiu discussed a little with the four family masters, and then set the time for three days later, and the location was in the Fengjue Mansion.
Xuanjian took the people away, and he didn't worry that the other party would regret it, because the pride of the Great Qin Empire was integrated into his bones, and he didn't bother to do some dirty things behind his back. And he has absolute confidence in the competition three days later, because he has a big killing weapon, he looked at the young man who has been following him, and secretly thought, at the beginning of the twenty-six-year-old Immortal Realm, don't say you've seen it, I'm afraid you haven't even heard of it, he can't wait to see the shocked faces of everyone three days later.
In the hall of the city lord's mansion, Qingqiu sat in the first place, and the four masters sat on both sides of the lower hand, discussing the candidates for the battle.
In the end, seven people were elected.
The three perceptual realms are complete, and the four perceptual realms are late, all within the age of thirty. The youngest is Fan Mingyan of the Fan family, who is only twenty-one years old and is Fan Yunxiao's biological daughter. Originally, Fan Yunxiao didn't want his daughter to fight, but it was really under the age of thirty in the family, and only Fan Mingyan could take it. The Fan family couldn't do anything without any strength, so they could only let their daughter play.
For this combination, the five people are still very confident, these seven people are the top Tianjiao in Donglai City, and they have been given the best cultivation conditions since childhood, so the Imperial Sword Sect is in a place outside the Hua, how can they have such good conditions to cultivate disciples, I think there is a great chance of winning.
In fact, Fan Yunxiao wanted to say that if he could ask someone to make a move, he would win this competition without waste, but after thinking about it, he still didn't speak, after all, he didn't know whether that person was willing or not, and he didn't dare to make decisions for that person.
The person he thinks about is naturally Cha Cha, Cha Cha has been very bored recently, because she can't beat the fat man anymore, she misses the feeling of beating the fat man, so she changes the way to find trouble with the fat man, just to be able to get over the addiction, but the fat man is smart, and when he sees her from afar, he will run away in embarrassment, and he will not give Cha Cha a chance to take a face, and Cha Cha can't catch up and beat him for no reason, because Tuoba Pifu said don't fight anymore, otherwise there should be a shadow in the fat man's heart, and what the fat man wants to say is that he has already had a shadow.
It has been more than half a year since the fat man apprenticed to Tuoba Pifu, and the small shop still has not changed, and the business is bleak and bleak, no different from going out of business.
The small shop has not changed, but the change of the fat man is really a little bigger. First of all, the change in body is very great, in the past, he was eight feet tall, five feet wide, and was a moving mountain of meat, and now the fat man, there is no trace of fat on his body, the muscles are knotted, full of explosive power, the previous fat face like a pig's head has become angular, big eyes are shining, although not particularly handsome, but full of masculinity.
Now he can't be called a fat man, but whether it's Tuoba Pifu, Tuoba Huai and Chacha, he doesn't have any intention of changing his words, and the fat man refutes it for a few days, and finally has no choice but to let it go.
Now that the fat man went out, no one recognized him, so he sighed for several days, feeling sorry for the loss of his popularity. And the person who really regrets it is not the fat man himself, but the big black dog steel hammer, because he watched his soft bed become a steel plate bed, and the sense of disparity made its happiness plummet, and it was listless all day long.
This half year of life is the nightmare of the fat man's eternal life, and senior sister Chacha is the source of the nightmare. But this half year's life is also the most important turning point in the fat man's life, because he worshiped a good master, had two extremely powerful brothers and sisters, got a heavy treasure Ruo Gong stick, and learned the one hundred and eight styles of the non-working stick method, the first glimpse of the avenue of power.
Yes, the fat man has been able to completely use the one hundred and eight styles of the non-work stick method, although he will still be exhausted after every fight, but this is undoubtedly a huge improvement. Nowadays, in his daily life, Ruo Stick is no longer a burden, because he has become accustomed to carrying a mountain on his body.
And these advances do not make the fat man feel truly happy, the thing that really makes him feel happy and happy is that he can finally eat, finally be able to eat the food made by his senior brother, every meal, it is the happiest moment for the fat man, he will sit at the table early, even if the senior sister is sitting next to him, he will never leave.
After Fan Yunxiao came out of the City Lord's Mansion, he came directly to the small shop, since he gave Tuoba Pifu an apprenticeship half a year ago, he had never been there, and he strictly forbade anyone in the family to look for the fat man, because Tuoba Pifu told him that the fat man should concentrate on learning art now, and don't bother him if there is nothing serious. Therefore, Fan Yunxiao has not seen his son for half a year.
After coming out of the City Lord's Mansion today, he always felt that those people from the Imperial Sword Sect must have something to rely on, otherwise they would not be so sure, so he came to the small shop again with a fluke mentality, hoping to get the help of any of his son's senior brothers and sisters.
