Chapter 17: The Two Swords That Dominate the Limelight

What's so bad about being a redneck? I don't want to see the world. Rhubarb was raised by me when I was a child, and I took it to graze and take it home with me. Daddy, you see rhubarb in tears, and it won't go.

Qi Fang was born in Maxipu, and grew up with her father and brother since she was a child.

A few days ago, the master sent someone to invite their family to Jingzhou to attend a birthday banquet.

The family was poor, and he had to buy a birthday gift and wear decent new clothes, so he had no choice but to sell the cattle that he had raised since childhood.

She didn't want to, but in the end, she couldn't beat her father.

Jingzhou Mansion City, with many people and a lot of people, is extremely prosperous, but she doesn't think it's much better than the countryside, but feels that it is noisy and upset.

Senior brother Di Yun saw Qi Fang's depressed expression, so he said, "Master, junior sister, there is a teahouse in front of you, let's go and rest first." ”

Martial arts prevailed in the Ming Dynasty.

In addition to drinking tea, the teahouse usually asks a storyteller to talk about the last period of the rivers and lakes to relieve the lack of eyes.

This is a rare place for croppers to relax and gain insight.

The price is not expensive, seven or eight coppers are enough; However, the farmers do not see much money all year round, so most of the customers of the teahouse are idlers in the city.

The tea house is divided into two floors, the lobby on the first floor is filled with dozens of benches and tables, full of individual guests; The second floor is a private seat, a small table, a good view, and expensive.

The desk is located in the center of the lobby, and behind the table stands an old man with white hair, a long beard and a green robe, with a cigarette stick in his left hand and a wooden hand in his right hand.

I only heard him snap and pat the wood: "There are talented people in the country, and they have been leading the way for decades!" Ladies and gentlemen, do you know what the rookie list is?! ”

"I know!"

"Isn't this nonsense!"

The crowd was coaxing.

The top trace is difficult to find, and the first-class martial artist can release his internal force and break through the siege of a small army, and for ordinary people, he is already a fairy-like figure. Looking at the rivers and lakes, they also have a very high status, and they can start a sect and establish an ancestor, and such characters often sit in the sect and do not move easily.

Therefore, the most active and famous warriors on the rivers and lakes are often second-rate warriors.

The rookie list is a list of young masters under the age of 30 who record the rivers and lakes, and generally only ranks 36th. Those who can make the list are at least the top second-rate who have mastered advanced martial arts!

"So what do you know about the recent changes in this rookie list?"

The idlers in the city don't know.

If he knew, it would not be the turn of this old man to sell books for money.

The gray-clothed guy on the side continued: "What the hell is it?" Master, hurry up and say it, don't sell it. ”

The old man in Tsing Yi raised two thin fingers: "One south and one north!" ”

"Two swords?"

"Meteor Sword, Dripping Sword!"

"I wonder what's so strange about these two swords?"

"The sword, just made by an ordinary blacksmith, is not surprising, but the person who uses the sword is extremely extraordinary!"

"Oh?"

"Meteor Sword Ding Peng, a person from Guanzhong, made his debut in the twentieth century, and defeated Shi Ding, a swordsman from Baoding Mansion, with a single move 'Meteor Outside the Sky'. This Shi must have been a master of the northern Qingping faction, and he has been in the second rate for more than ten years.

In April, he defeated the Wind Chasing Sword with the same move, 'Meteor Outside the Sky'.

Feng Buping is a big disciple of the Huashan Sect Sword Sect! Located at the top of the rookie list, the swordsmanship is clear and pointed, fast and peculiar, spicy, and he is a very proud person, but he was convinced that he lost that battle, and he planned to return to the mountain to retreat for ten years, and then argue with Ding Peng.

In May, Guo Zhengping, the leader of the Iron Sword Gate, was also defeated by Ding Peng's extraterrestrial meteor.

The Songyang swordsman has cultivated the iron sword to perfection, and he is a real second-rate pinnacle.

Martial arts are divided into entry, small success, big success, and consummation.

Before consummation, there was a big difference between ordinary martial arts and top-notch martial arts, but when consummation, the gap between the two would be greatly narrowed. What is perfection is to cultivate martial arts to the peak, truly use it for oneself, and become a part of the body's instincts.

At this point, it can even be from the outside to the inside, inducing the internal force in the body to release externally.

Of course, it can usually only be put out one foot, which is not comparable to the body protection true power of a first-class martial artist who is as thick as three feet.

However, even so, his combat power is far beyond the average second-rate, and he can even fight a few moves with a first-class martial artist and get out. ”

The gray-clothed guy nodded and asked, "The Meteor Sword is so extraordinary, so I don't know where the Dripping Sword came from?" ”

"The name of the dripping sword is Dongfang Yi, the origin is a mystery, there are rumors that it is a person from my Xiangxi, born rich and noble, but this matter cannot be examined."

"It was also his twentieth debut, and he defeated Kunyuan Sword Zuo Lengchan in the first battle. Zuo Lengchan is the chief disciple of the Songshan School. Talented, with a high level of understanding, quick and fierce sword moves, and a rare second-rate opponent. ranked tenth on the rookie list, but in the end, he couldn't break Dongfang Yi's dripping swordsmanship, fought fiercely for 200 moves, and lost with all his strength. ”

"Two hundred moves in a fierce battle? Then the strength of this drop of water sword seems to be similar to Zuo Lengchan? ”

The gray-clothed guy has been messing around for so long, and he can be regarded as having some knowledge.

The general strength difference is huge, and the winner can be seen in a few moves; If the gap is not large, dozens of moves are needed; If you play hundreds of rounds, there is basically no gap, it all depends on the state of the two.

Maybe you win this time when you're in good spirits, but next time it's dark and you're not in good spirits, you'll lose.

"No, no, no, swordsmanship, some people are good at attacking, such as that Ding Peng, only one type of meteor outside the sky can be rampant in the world; Some people are good at guarding, Dongfang Yi swordsmanship is meticulous, not leaking, and there is no style to break.

It is also peculiar to say, these two swords in the north and south, one attack and one defense, the attacker is unstoppable, and the defender does not leak. I really look forward to the day when these two meet, in the end, the 'extraterrestrial meteor' will break through the 'leakage'; Or is this 'leaky' to prevent 'extraterrestrial meteors'? ”

"I think it must be the 'Meteor Outside the Sky' that is more powerful, after all, even the Songyang swordsman can't stop this move, and he can't prevent it if he wants to come to Dongfang Yi." The gray-clothed guy said.

Songyang swordsman is the pinnacle of second-rate!

"Not necessarily!"

The old man in Tsing Yi waved his hand: "A month ago, the dripping sword Dongfang Yi challenged Jiang Muxi, the goddess of Wushan.

The 12 styles of Wushan are as famous as the 13 styles of Huashan Qingfeng and the Kunlun Nine Heavens style, and they are the three top swordsmanship recognized by the rivers and lakes, second only to the peerless school. The goddess of Wushan won the top three on the rookie list with this swordsmanship, and even fought with Chang Qingzi, the head of Qingcheng, who was at the peak of the second-rate peak, for 80 rounds, but in the end she couldn't break this drop of water sword. ”

"Couldn't the twelve styles of Wushan break the dripping sword?" The gray-clad guy exclaimed.

Because of the regional relationship, the reputation of the Wushan faction in Xiangxi is not weak.

The idlers in the city also began to talk one by one.

"Old man Liu, do you know what is so powerful about this drop of water sword in addition to the unparalleled sword defense? Can't he force manpower to admit defeat every time he duels, right? "On the second floor, there are Chinese costumes to listen to inquiries.

The old man in Tsing Yi smoked a dry cigarette, squinted his eyes and smiled without saying a word.

The gray-clothed guy walked around with a reward plate.

Smack!

On the second floor, large silver grains fall into the reward plate.

"Thank you!" The gray-clad guy shouted.

The old man in Tsing Yi opened his eyes and said slowly: "The old man has never seen the specific situation, so he can only guess one or two."

I heard that this person was dressed in blue, and his bearing was outstanding, like a good son in the turbid world, accompanied by red and white swordsmen. In the previous battle, he often used the sword carried by the white-clothed sword to fight the enemy. According to the old man's humble opinion, if he really has something peculiar, it must have something to do with the sword carried by the red-clothed sword attendant.

Half a month ago, there were rumors that the Dripping Sword had made an appointment to fight the number one master of my Jingzhou Mansion, the master of the Wuyun Society, and the five cloud hand Wanzhen Mountain Ten thousand officials.

If the guest officer has a heart, he might as well stay for a few more days, or be able to come to the scene to observe one or two. ”

"This drop of water sword is actually here to challenge the ten thousand officials?!"

"Wan Daguan cultivated the soft cloud hand to perfection twenty years ago, and he was also a strong player in the second-rate peak, and he once fought fiercely and killed Lu Tong, the owner of the Black Taihang Cottage, in a hundred moves. Later, he entered Jingzhou with Wei and united many merchants to establish the Wuyun Club to ensure the safety of one party.

In the past five years, although he has not made a move, there are rumors that he has begun to touch the bypass, and his hands are soft and rigid, and he can be promoted to first-class as soon as the opportunity comes. ”

"This battle is bound to be a battle of dragons and tigers! Wonderful! ”

There was a lot of talking.
