Chapter 833: The Lieutenant General Who Abandoned His Sword
Chapter 833: The Lieutenant General Who Abandoned His Sword
Northern Xinjiang, Yanwu University.
Nangong Jian, who had been out for more than two years, finally came back, and the strength of the four of them was stronger. In just a few years, several people have made some breakthroughs.
Lin Changqing and Ling Jiannan broke through from the third order of the Martial Saint to the fourth order of the Martial Saint, and Nangong Jian had also reached the peak of the third order of the Martial Saint and was about to break through to the fourth order of the Martial Saint.
And although the national teacher did not break through to the fourth order of the Martial Saint, his strength was stronger.
After learning that his daughter gave birth to a child for Yan Yin, Lin Changqing was both excited and emotional, and after some discussion, he and Nangong Jian decided to go to Yunxi City together to have a look.
And Ling Jiannan and the national teacher stayed in Yanwu Academy and did not accompany them.
Yunxi City, Dingbei Hou Mansion.
After a few days of rest, Dan Sheng's aura gradually stabilized, and her face was not so pale.
It's just that her white hair like a waterfall is sad.
Afterwards, under Su Yanying's inquiry, Dan Sheng revealed the root cause.
Dansheng, the reason why she became like that was because she used her strength and lifespan to forcibly repair Su Xin's heart and awaken her vitality.
And the consequence of this is that Dan Sheng lost nearly a thousand years of life and saved Su Xin.
Dan Sheng's age is not young, she and Qingya Qingxi are of the same generation, and they are nearly a thousand years old. Although she was a master of the seventh order of the Spirit Saint and could live for two or three thousand years, losing a thousand years was still a huge loss.
Exchanging a thousand years of lifespan for a life of Su Xin, an ordinary person, is not worth it in Yan Yin's eyes, after all, Dansheng's life is much more precious than Su Xin's.
When Su Xin asked this question, Dan Sheng replied like this: "The value of life is not in the length of life, but in whether what you do is meaningful." I've lived for almost a thousand years, and I'm much luckier than the average person who only lives to be 100 years old. Moreover, at the expense of one drop of his Martial Saint Seventh Order Holy Blood, the Lord of the Wind Cloud Mountain Range asked me to either revive her or kill her. It's okay for me to save people, but it's impossible for me to kill people. Even at some cost, I'm willing. ”
Having said that, Dan Sheng's price is too great.
It's just that now that the matter has come to this, although everyone feels sorry for Dansheng, they can only accept the reality.
Dan Sheng's strength has retreated from the Spirit Saint Seventh Order to the Spirit Saint realm, in other words, her lifespan will also be greatly reduced.
"Perhaps, Master respects her for less than a hundred years. In the backyard of the Hou Mansion, Su Yanying looked at Yan Yin with a worried face and said, "I feel very sad when I think that Master Venerable will leave me one day. ”
Gently kissed Su Yanying's beautiful face, Yan Yin said softly, "I want to open up a little, as long as she recovers to the strength of the seventh order of the Spirit Saint, won't her life span be extended." We should not look at these things with a pessimistic attitude, but with a smile. ”
Hearing Yan Yin say this, Su Yanying couldn't help but say, "I remember this is what I said to you before. ”
Hehe, with a smile, Yan Yin sniffed the fragrance between Su Yan's shadow hair and said, "It's really fragrant." ”
The two were talking, and they saw Yan Buregret holding the god of fire and trotting to Yan Yin, and said, "Grandpa and grandma, they're here." ”
The grandfather and grandmother that Yan Buregret said were naturally Su Jinghong and Mrs. Su, and the two moved back to Su Mansion after living in Dingbei Hou Mansion for a while.
In their words, such a big mansion is not suitable for them to retire, they are already old, and they don't want to be served all day long, so they want to go back to Su Mansion to live an ordinary life.
For such a request, Yan Yin can only agree.
But because Mrs. Su and Mrs. Liu, Liu Qingyan's mother, chatted very well, even Mrs. Liu moved to Su Mansion in the end.
This is also the reason why I have not seen Mrs. Liu and Su Jinghong in the Dingbei Hou Mansion in the past two years.
However, they will also come over to have a look when they have time, and Su Yanying and Ye Qingchen will also go back to sit and chat with them.
Hearing Yan Buregret saying that Su Jinghong and they were coming, Yan Yin bent down to pick up Yan Buregret, put her on her broad shoulders, and then went to Su Yanying and said, "Let's go, go and see." ”
When they came to the living room of the Hou Mansion, Ye Qingchen and the others were greeting Mrs. Su and Mrs. Liu, but Su Jinghong was not present.
"I heard that the lieutenant general was here, and he went to look for him. Seeing Yan Yin inspecting the field, Mrs. Su seemed to understand Yan Yin's thoughts, so she spoke.
Nodding, Yan Yin handed Yan to Su Xin, who was sitting next to Mrs. Su, and then bowed to Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Su before going to the place where the lieutenant general was.
Because the lieutenant general had to take care of Su Xin, he temporarily lived in the Dingbei Hou Mansion.
However, he won't stay long, and after Dan Sheng's recovery, he will leave with Su Xin.
At the residence of the lieutenant general, Yan Yin met Su Jinghong.
The two were talking happily, and when they saw Yan Yin coming, Su Jinghong smiled and said, "I know that the child in Yanying's belly is about to be born, so I, who is a grandfather, will come over to take a look." I didn't expect the lieutenant general to be here, and I had some friendship with him when I was the imperial finance minister, so I came to catch up with him. ”
Nodding, the lieutenant general beckoned Yan Yin to sit down, and then said to him, "I'm going to leave in a few days." ”
"So fast?" Yan Yin said, "Won't you stay a few more days?"
The lieutenant general said loudly, "This time is enough to trouble you, and besides, I have some things to do, so I can't stay long." ”
"What about Su Xin?" Yan Yin asked out loud, "She hasn't woken up yet, I'm afraid it's inconvenient for you to run around with her!"
"Some things can't be delayed, so I have to grieve Su Xin. The lieutenant general said, "Your kindness, Zhong will remember it." If he has the opportunity in the future, he will definitely repay him with sincerity. ”
"If Your Excellency really thanks Yan, Yan really needs your help. Looking at the lieutenant general, Yan Yin spoke, "A few years ago, the imperial general Feng Yunxiao issued an order for a million troops to pull out Yanyun, and under this order, the huge Yanyun Mountain Range was destroyed and uprooted. Therefore, I would like to ask Your Excellency to tell Feng Fengxiao, hoping that he will stop this matter of labor and money that is not beneficial to the world. ”
Nodding, Su Jinghong also said to the lieutenant general, "With your relationship with him, if you come forward to stop it, you will definitely be able to stop this meaningless thing." The once prosperous southern Xinjiang has become poor because of him. As one of the three great generals appointed by the monarch to protect the country, you should think about this empire. ”
Of course, the monarch that Su Jinghong said was not the current imperial monarch Fengyun, but his grandfather. And the three generals who protect the country, even if Su Jinghong didn't say it, Yan Yin knew which three people it was.
One is his father Yan Yi, the second is the lieutenant general in front of him, and the third is Nangong Jian.
The three of them, in that era decades ago, were the most famous and powerful generals in the Fengyun Empire.
"The matter of the Yanyun Mountain Range, I also heard Su Ya mention it the last time I went to Savage City. But at that time, I was thinking about Su Xin, so I didn't care about it. Since you have said both Jinghong and Yanyin, then I will talk to him when I pour. The lieutenant general spoke.
After chatting for a while, Su Jinghong and Yan Yin said goodbye one after another.
After leaving General Zhong's residence, Su Jinghong said to Yan Yin, "Do you know the relationship between General Zhong, your father and Nangong Jian?"
Nodding, Yan Yin said, "I didn't know before, but I learned a little later." ”
"Your father hasn't been seen for over twenty years, so he's not worried. But Nangong Jian is now a Saint Academician of Yanwu Academy, and he is also Fang Xue's father. If Nangong Jian and General Zhong meet, with the kind of relationship between the two, there will inevitably be a fight. Su Jinghong said in a low voice, "So you must not let the two meet, otherwise the consequences will not be good." ”
Yan Yin also knew this, but Nangong Jian and the others had not returned to the northern frontier yet, so he was not worried.
It's just that when Su Yanying and Ye Qingchen just sent Su Jinghong, Mrs. Su and Mrs. Liu away the next day, Nangong Jian and Lin Changqing came to Yunxi City and came to Dingbei Hou Mansion.
Before the two could see their grandson, they saw the lieutenant general appear in front of them.
Looking at the lieutenant general, they were very puzzled, and they didn't understand how he could be in this Dingbei Hou Mansion.
Seeing this situation, Su Yanying hurriedly asked Su Xin to inform Yan Yin, who was practicing in the Hou Mansion.
After a while, Yan Yin and Su Xin rushed over together.
But it's too late, Nangong Jian, Lieutenant General and Lin Changqing are no longer here.
"What about people?" Yan Yin hurriedly asked Ye Qingchen and them.
"They went out. Ye Qingchen said, "Come along and have a look!"
With the help of the god of wind, Yan Yin found the three of them on a mountain peak outside Yunxi City.
The lieutenant general had already drawn his sword, and Nangong Jian looked at the lieutenant general with a solemn expression. And Lin Changqing was holding a black long whip, quietly watching the two of them.
Seeing this, Yan Yin hurriedly stepped forward to stop it, but was stopped by Lin Changqing.
"Sooner or later, there will be a war between them, and even if they stop it, it will be useless. Rather than that, it's better to let them win and lose. Lin Changqing said to Yan Yin, "Why is he in your mansion?"
Yan Yin talked about the matter of the lieutenant general, and finally said, "You really can't stop it?"
Nodding, Lin Changqing said, "Don't worry, they are all measured people, and nothing will happen." ”
The lieutenant general summoned his own sword, and his sword, like Yan Yin's phantom sword, was also forged by Bai Fuzi, and the sword was called Killing.
In Yan Yin's surprised gaze, the lieutenant general suppressed his strength to the level of a military general. And Nangong Jian, like the lieutenant general, also suppressed his strength to the level of a general.
Looking at Lin Changqing, Yan Yin asked puzzledly, "This is?"
"In that battle, their strength was at the level of military generals. Lin Changqing said, "That's fine, if you fight with the strength of the Martial Saint level, I'm afraid that the entire Yunxi City will be destroyed." ”
Under the gaze of the two, the lieutenant general shot at Nangong Jian.
"Draw the sword!"
As soon as the lieutenant general made a move, it was the fourth move in the vertical and horizontal swordsmanship, and it was also the most well-known move.
Back then, Mu Chenxuan and Xi Xi relied on this trick to amaze the four of them, allowing the world to see the horror of vertical and horizontal swordsmanship.
But the lieutenant general made a move, and this move was even more terrifying.
In an instant, the lieutenant general slashed out three sword qi with one sword!
Ordinary people use swords, and almost all of them are one sword and one sword qi. And the generation of sword qi can still be struck by those who are more powerful.
Even if it was Ling Jiannan, he could only draw out a sword qi with a single sword. It's just that he is a heavy sword, and he pays attention to lethality and destructive power, which can be seen from the fact that he killed the dragon with a sword.
But the lieutenant general is different, when the previous imperial monarch was buried, he could slash out two sword qi with one sword and kill the flower of Tingyulou without injury.
And now, he has reached the terrifying strength of slashing out three sword qi with one sword.
With the same move, one sword qi is naturally easy to deal with, but if it is two sword qi, then it is a little difficult. And the three sword qi are even more difficult!
At this moment, the lieutenant general slashed out three sword qi with one sword, and struck at Nangong Sword with incomparably powerful killing power.
But it is also worthy of the reputation that Nangong Jian can sit in Southern Xinjiang for so many years, I saw him let out a low shout, and then his feet turned hard, and his body suddenly rotated.
As soon as his body reached a whirlwind, Nangong Sword suddenly soared into the air several zhang high, avoiding the three sword qi of the lieutenant general.
Immediately afterwards, Nangong Jian turned over in the air and kicked at the lieutenant general, and the lieutenant general slashed horizontally, straight towards Nangong Jian's legs.
Just when the sword was about to slash on Nangong's sword leg, I saw him kick his feet against each other, and then his body suddenly avoided the lieutenant general's sword out of thin air.
Next, the two suddenly fought back and forth, the lieutenant general's sword light was horizontal, and the Nangong sword was fast, and the two fought each other for hundreds of rounds.
It's just that the moves between the two seem to have been rehearsed a long time ago, you can't help me, and I can't help you.
Finally, Nangong Jian seemed to be defeated by the lieutenant general and turned over and retreated, while the lieutenant general chased with his sword and stabbed Nangong Jian's back vest.
Seeing this scene, Yan Yin couldn't help but jump out of the corner of her eyes and was about to step forward to stop it.
But Lin Changqing stopped him, and instead said in a low voice, "They are repeating the battle of the year." ”
Just when the lieutenant general's long sword was about to pierce Nangong Jian's vest, I saw Nangong Jian's body suddenly appear on the lieutenant general's back with a volley, and then kicked him fiercely in the back of the head.
If this kick is real, the lieutenant general will be in danger.
But at this time, it was too late for the lieutenant general to put away his sword, even if Yan Yin was at the angle of the lieutenant general, it was already too late to turn around and hold the sword.
However, something happened to Yanyin's surprise.
I saw that the lieutenant general suddenly abandoned his sword and backhanded, and the moment he turned around, he grabbed the leg of the Nangong sword that was kicked to the back of his head, and then he took advantage of the situation to throw the Nangong sword out horizontally.
This scene came too quickly and suddenly, Yan Yin didn't expect that General Zhong would give up the long sword in his hand so decisively at that moment and retreat to grab Nangong Sword with his bare hands.
This time, Nangong Jian was not injured, but his clothes were rubbed and scratched on the ground.
Standing up, Nangong Jian glanced at the killing sword that was abandoned by the lieutenant general, and then looked at the lieutenant general and said, "This is the trick you didn't use back then?"
The lieutenant general stretched out his hand and sucked the killing sword into his hand, and then said to Nangong Jian, "She thought I would be hit by you, so she stepped forward to block your kick for me at that time." Although I am a man of the sword, I have never regarded the sword as something that cannot be discarded. ”
With a sigh, Nangong Jian said loudly, "It turns out that the person who lost back then should be me." ”
At this time, Yan Yin had completely understood. The battle between them just now was a reenactment of the battle between the lieutenant general and Nangong Jian back then, and the thrilling scene just now, in fact, the lieutenant general had a way to deal with it, but Su Xin didn't know it at that time. Worried about the lieutenant general, Su Xin, who thought that he would be hit, stepped forward to block Nangong Jian's kick for the lieutenant general.
It was such a kick that made Su Xin's heart pulse shattered by Nangong Jian's kick, and then he was in the state of the living dead for decades.
It's a very helpless thing, a very sad result.
It's just that everything has already passed, and it's useless to say more.
