Chapter 1 My sword will kill
The seventh day of the seventh month of July is an important day in the east of the city, because today there will be a lot of young men and women to go to the fairy temple to ask for that marriage, every year, in addition to asking for marriage, there are many people who go to join in the fun, although it is still early, but the fairy temple is already surrounded by people, and at this moment the dilapidated small temple next to it is empty, compared with this fairy temple seems out of place.
"Do you think that kid will come again this year?" the man with a big knife looked at the temple and asked the person next to him.
"Brother Yuan Meng, do you still need to ask, I bet he will definitely come, who lives in this small temple, don't you know? A young man sneered.
Someone else chimed in: "Look, isn't he here? Haha, it's still the same as in previous years." ”
All of them were armed, but none of them were swords.
Sure enough, following everyone's eyes, there was a young man who seemed to be seventeen or eighteen years old, carrying a long sword, with a delicate face and a heroic body. With some incense in his hand and a pot of wine, he walked straight east away from the temple, ignoring the eyes of everyone, as if he had long been accustomed to it.
"This person is so handsome, it's a pity, it's a sword learner, my father will definitely not allow it, alas. A woman who seemed to be from a large family sighed, and her expression was still very melancholy.
"You Nizi, let's go, my mother will take you to ask for a marriage sign, find a good husband, don't mess around here, you will be angry with your father if you find someone who learns the sword." The middle-aged woman walked in.
In the middle of the small temple, there is a statue, I don't know what year it stands, but it is still lifelike, the statue has a handsome face, a sword, looking up at the sky, it is the last master of the sword in their mouths.
The young man had already wiped the statue of the Dongli Sword Master well, the wine had already been placed on the incense table, and the incense burner was also inserted with lit incense, which he had to do once a year, so he also seemed very skilled.
"Master Dongli Ancestor, the apprentice grandson of your apprentice, the boy Ye Feng, came to see you again. ”
Then he kowtowed three heads to the statue of the Dongli Sword Master, and said solemnly: "I swear to Master Zu today, in this life, I, Ye Feng, must reach the peak of the sword path, and then let these guys who look down on people know that the way of the sword will never be silent." After speaking, he drank the half pot of wine and walked out, and looked at the couplets on both sides of the temple gate.
"What's the matter with immortals, destroy them with a sword. Although these two sentences have been slowly blurred with the passage of time, they have been deeply engraved in his heart.
"I picked you up in a maple forest, so I named you Ye Feng. ”
As he walked on the road, he remembered his master's words again, and his heart was a little depressed, but then he said to himself: "You were born to see me condense the sword and abandon me, right? Yes, in this era, sword cultivation is destined to be a waste? But I will not succumb to fate." ”
"Look, he's coming out again, Yuan Meng, don't you try it? The man with the halberd encouraged.
"Gu Xiao, the sword is not separated, that is the past, the current sword is not qualified to compare with our sword, the era of the sword dominance has passed, haha, isn't the Dongli sword master known as having beheaded the immortals? I don't think it's the immortals, it should be the luck of the people who cut their swords. Yuan Meng didn't listen to Gu Xiao's instigation, but he didn't hide his ridicule of the current situation of the sword, and he also ignored the sword-bearing young man who was slowly walking in front of him.
Ye Feng actually hears a lot of similar words every year today, to the effect that "the way of the sword is a waste, and the sword cultivation is a waste." He had always laughed it off, but today he didn't want to put up with it anymore.
"I have no regrets in cultivating swords, I don't know how your sword is?" he asked Yuan Meng.
"Do you hear that? Yuan Meng, how is your knife? This kid is not convinced, it seems that you can't use the knife today, haha! This kid is interesting and interesting. Gu Xiao's voice sounded again.
"Brother Yuan Meng, you are the one who wants to enter the Qingyun Sect, how can you let this kid be so arrogant? Someone else chimed in.
At this time, more and more people came around, all wanting to see the excitement, and there were many beautiful women, all whispering on the side, as if they all wanted to watch a big show, but everyone felt that if Yuan Meng took out the knife, this young man with a sword would have to shed his skin if he didn't die.
Yuan Meng was carrying a three-foot long knife, he was unusually tall and tall, Ye Feng's words surprised him, and it was a provocation for him. He didn't expect that this waste man in his eyes would dare to provoke him, watching more and more onlookers. Yuan Meng said loudly: "My knife, you will see blood, if you don't want to die, now go back to the broken temple, in front of everyone, smash the broken statue to Lao Tzu, and then kneel in front of me and kowtow three times, Lao Tzu will spare you from death." ”
As soon as Yuan Meng's words came out, everyone laughed, they had no sympathy for Ye Feng, only curiosity, because this is a world where the strong are respected, the weak do not deserve sympathy, and the weak will only be ridiculed.
"My sword will kill when it comes out. Ye Feng replied indifferently.
This sentence seems to stir up a thousand waves.
"This kid doesn't want to die, haha, there's a good show to watch, Yuan Meng is the person who is favored by the Qingyun Sect, this immortal temple didn't come in vain today, I haven't seen this excitement for a long time. ”
Everyone was talking about it, but after Ye Feng said that, Yuan Meng immediately drew his knife and rushed forward, as if he wanted to solve the "waste" in front of him with a knife. ”
"If you don't know what to do, then die, waste. ”
Looking at this knife that was getting closer and closer to him, Ye Feng drew his sword, but people only saw him draw his sword, and the swords met.
The swords slammed into each other, like thunder on the ground, and both of them retreated a few steps back from the force of the shock, but then Ye Feng attacked.
"Since this kid can withstand Yuan Meng's knife, it seems to be a little different from those waste sword cultivators, the Yuan family's wind-breaking slash, but the three-grade sword technique, this kid is a little fast out of the sword, it seems that this scene is still a bit interesting. Gu Xiao said while watching.
All the exercises are divided into seven grades to one grade, one grade is the highest, and the three-grade exercises are generally only available to second-rate families or sects, which shows that the Yuan family in Gu Xiao's mouth must be different.
Everyone was also amazed, but it was only amazed, and even many people had already taken out the money and started to gamble.
"Three hundred taels of silver, I bought that sword to repair and support Yuan Meng's three moves at most. ”
"This kid should be able to survive five moves, and I'll pay five hundred taels of silver to buy that kid to survive five moves at most."
"I also bought three hundred taels, betting that he would survive five moves at most. The voices came and went, so lively.
Yuan Meng was also secretly frightened at this time, because his wind breaking slash was a "fast" word, but he didn't expect the waste in his eyes, the sword was faster than his own knife, and it seemed to be getting faster and faster, he no longer underestimated the sword cultivator in front of him, looking at the endless sword momentum on the opposite side, it seemed that although it was plain and no tricks, but in fact, the sword was extremely fast, the sword was extremely fierce, vertical and horizontal, wave after wave, and he only had the power to parry.
"Break it for me. Yuan Meng shouted, suddenly jumped up, and slashed towards Ye Feng, and the blade was faintly covered with a green glow, as if he wanted to decide the outcome with this blow.
Ye Feng looked at Yuan Meng's sudden change of move, he didn't put away his sword, let alone dodge, he remembered what his master said.
"The way of the sword lies in fast, and there are ten thousand laws in the world, only fast is not broken. ”
So his sword dance was faster, the sword was he had not left since he could remember, and he had only practiced one sword technique since he was a child, that is, "Qingfeng Yin." ”
"When the breeze groans, everything is Su. He growled. This was his first sentence after the battle with Yuan Meng, the sword in his hand, dancing faster and faster at this time, there was an occasional sound of breaking the sky.
"This kid has already survived eighteen moves, I'm not mistaken, is it possible that Yuan Meng is just a vain name? A man with a spear said indifferently.
When the people heard this, they did not dare to echo it, because there were only a handful of people who were qualified to say this about the Yuan family in the east of the city, and that person was qualified to say that. ”
"Liao Qingyi, don't stand and talk without backache, this sword is faster than your gun, right?" Gu Xiao said unceremoniously to the man with the gun.
"Hmph, what's the use, killing him with three shots is enough!" After he finished saying this, he turned his head and continued to watch the battle, not wanting to compete with Gu Xiao for the advantage of his tongue.
Yuan Meng was even more frightened at this time, looking at the faster and faster sword, he actually had a retreat in his heart, but he still gritted his teeth and slashed down.
"The knife will not be retreated. "This is the faith of those who repair the sword.
It was about the sword that collided again, but this time there was a "crackling" sound, like the sound of the knife cutting scrap metal.
And Ye Feng knew in his heart that in this short moment, his sword had already touched the knife dozens of times before he could resist the attack of Yuan Meng's knife, and at this moment, looking at Yuan Meng who was shocked and retreated, he endured the power of the flying shock, and followed with his sword, as if he wanted to kill with one blow.
"Boy, dare. Gu Xiao shouted. Immediately, he threw the halberd on his hand at Ye Feng.
"My sword, I will kill people, and those who insult my sword path ancestor will die!" As soon as Ye Feng's words fell, the sword in his hand pierced Yuan Meng's throat, and Yuan Meng didn't blink an eye, because he never thought that he would die in the hands of the waste in his eyes.
The moment Ye Feng's sword fell, there was a "whoosh", and then a halberd came into the air, and a "bang" sound penetrated through Ye Feng's left arm and was obliquely inserted into the ground, everything happened between the lightning and flint, Ye Feng's body seemed to have an extra blood hole out of thin air, and the blood suddenly gushed out, coupled with the force of the previous shock, with a "poof", a large mouthful of blood was spit out.
"What? This sword cultivator actually killed Yuan Meng, damn it, you should die!" Gu Xiao yelled.
"It's really damned, haha! It's a good death, no one in sight, Yelang is arrogant, it's damned!" Liao Qingyi laughed.
"The kid is here with his life!" Gu Xiao said, and rushed towards Ye Feng with a fierce momentum, as if he wanted to avenge Yuan Meng.
At this time, Liao Qingyi stood up with a gun, stood in front of Ye Feng, and said with a smile: "If you are not good at learning and art, you should die, Gu Xiao, are you afraid that the Yuan family will know that you instigated Yuan Meng to cause trouble?
"Liao Qingyi, get out of the way. Gu Xiao said angrily.
"Do you want to kill him? I still don't want to let you, the unhappy person of the Gu and Yuan families is a friend of my Liao family. Liao Qingyi didn't seem to be afraid of this Gu Xiao at all.
Ye Feng tore off a piece of cloth from his clothes in pain, tied it to his wound, and then slowly stood up and walked towards his mountain gate.
Everyone was stunned at the moment, as if they couldn't believe what was happening in front of them.
"What? This sword cultivator actually killed the second son of the Yuan family?"
"Could it be that Sword Cultivation is going to rise again?" There is no doubt that this is a question in everyone's minds, in fact, they don't know that the biggest reason is that Yuan Meng underestimated the enemy from the beginning.
"Liao Qingyi, you will pay the price for what you have done today. Gu Xiao picked up the halberd on the ground and said to Liao Qingyi in front of him.
And Liao Qingyi didn't pay attention to him, but looked at Ye Feng's distant back and said, "It's really interesting!"
