Chapter 5: The Search for the Dead

After Mu Zi'an and Xiao Jiu finished fighting, the two of them saw the three of them looking at them in surprise.

Seeing Mu Zi'an and Xiao Jiu walking out, Murong Han and the three of them also put away what they had just looked, Murong Han looked at his son with a relieved face, and Jiang Yun showed a motherly smile.

"Yu'er, the strength of the changes in the past three years has changed really much, I am very happy for my father and your mother, there will be a martial arts conference in the city in a month, I don't know if you are interested in participating."

After hearing what Murong Han said about the martial arts conference, Mu Zi'an said to Xiao Jiu: "Xiao Jiu, go ahead, go and exercise, it is also good for your own cultivation, and by the way, you can also see the gap between you and others." “

"Ah, Senior Brother, don't we still have to rush to the Sword Sect?"

"Don't worry, it's still a long time, take your time, the Sword Sect is far away from us, it just so happens that I will teach you another set of swordsmanship, the "Heavenly Law Record" will be hidden, and the secrets taught by the master are not easy to show, this set of swordsmanship is enough. “

"Yes, senior brother."

Murong Han heard the words of the two brothers, and didn't say anything, the child was older, and he could make a decision, so he asked his subordinates to bring breakfast and then took Jiang Yun and Murong Xi away.

After Mu Zi'an and Xiao Jiu finished breakfast, Mu Zi'an taught Xiao Jiu's swordsmanship.

Ten miles of breeze, ten miles of road, one step at a time, cutting the sky. I saw Mu Zi'an take out his mirror heart sword, pull the sword out of its scabbard, the cold light flashed, and Xiao Jiu next to him suddenly felt a thrill.

"Xiao Jiu, look carefully, experience it with your heart, I will only show this trick once, this is the first style of "cutting the sky", "broken mountains and rivers". After that, Mu Zi'an's closed eyes suddenly opened, and a powerful momentum spread out, Xiao Jiu quickly retreated, still sweating profusely, but Xiao Jiu didn't dare to be distracted, for fear of missing the details.

I saw that Mu Zi'an appeared a phantom of mountains and rivers, but the mountains and rivers just gave people a sense of oppression.

Mu Zi'an aimed his sword at the phantom, then leaned over slightly, then jumped up, looked ahead, and swung his sword hard, a powerful sword qi slashed towards the phantom, and the huge mountain in the mountain and river collapsed, and the gravel rolled down into the river to stir up a terrifying splash, and the phantom disappeared after a short time.

Xiao Jiu was shocked, Xiao Jiu was stunned, Xiao Jiu stood in place stupidly with his big mouth, knowing that Mu Zi'an called him, and gradually came back to his senses.

"Senior brother, this sword technique is too strong, I'm afraid it has a heavenly level, I felt the entire ground shaking when the giant mountain collapsed just now." Xiao Jiu looked at Mu Zi'an with admiration.

"Wujie, this is what I saw in the master's study when I was a child, and later the master told me that the strength of this sword technique is related to the strength of the person who uses it, the stronger the person, the stronger the power of this sword technique."

Xiao Jiu couldn't believe it, this sword technique looked so strong, it was actually just a rankless one.

"Okay, when the master taught me to "cut the sky", a total of three styles, it took me three days to learn the first style, and it took three months to learn all the three styles, you do your best, I will guide you on the side, the master taught me once and then ran to drink, you boy, blessed. Thinking of his own master, Mu Zi'an also looked helpless, it seems that it was really the master who led the door, and the cultivation of the mind was personal.

"Hehe, it's Senior Brother, thank you, Senior Brother, I'll do my best."

In the following days, in order to let Xiao Jiu grow like a small sapling into a towering tree, in order to let Xiao Jiu quickly master the first style, Mu Zi'an was also ruthless, and as soon as he found that Xiao Jiu was a little slack, he would be severely punished.

Splitting a thousand swords every day, his hands are grinding out of calluses, Xiao Jiu was about to relax and rest, and as soon as he put down the sword, he felt a cold gaze staring at him.

"If you stand up, you will be punished for being lazy, and you will become a master only if you suffer hardship." Then Mu Zi'an took out a wooden stick, and then slapped it on Xiao Jiu's back, Xiao Jiu gritted his teeth and said nothing, and there was no resentment in his heart, he knew in his heart that the senior brother was for his own good, and he couldn't stand this little punishment, so how could he become stronger.

However, Jiang Yun, who had been standing not far away, shed tears, and Murong Han on the side comforted: "Madam, don't be sad, now Yu'er is no longer the same as it was back then, the child has grown up and has his own goals, if he can't even stand this, how can he go on." ”

Jiang Yun knows this reason, but after all, it is her own flesh and blood, and she has only seen her for three years, can she not feel heartache when she sees the punishment?

"Xiao Jiu, I and your other senior brothers and sisters have come over like this, and now that the master is not here, I will discipline you instead of the master, you must remember that if you want to become stronger, you must be patient, you must be able to endure hardships and calm down, do you understand?"

"Yes! Senior brother, Xiao Jiu understands that Xiao Jiu will definitely live up to your expectations. Xiao Jiu looked at Mu Zi'an and said firmly.

Mu Zi'an saw Xiao Jiu looking at him seriously, and he also smiled with satisfaction.

Outside the ancient city, I saw a man and a woman standing in front of a black-robed man.

"Greetings to the Fourth Elder." The man and the woman said respectfully to the black-robed man.

"Well, Lin Hu, Han Jiuyou, how did you get the news out of the two of you?" The black-robed man said to Lin Hu and Han Jiuyou with an indifferent expression.

"Back to the fourth elder, the news has been inquired, that little kid's name is Murong Yu, he is the child of Murong Han, the city lord of this city, and he is going to participate in the martial arts conference in a few days, I think we can do it at that time, but ......"

"But what!"

"But there is a kid beside him who seems to have good strength, and I heard that Murong Han is about to reach the gossip realm, I don't know you?" Lin Hu replied cautiously.

The black-robed man glanced at Lin Hu, "What's so terrible about my Black Mountain Sect, it's just a mere gossip realm, what's so terrible, when the time comes, you just look at the kid you said, and don't worry about the rest." "

"It's the four elders, and I will follow the arrangement of the four elders."

A month later, at the scene of the martial arts conference, there were crowds of people, the water was impassable, and geniuses from all walks of life gathered here, some people came to see the excitement, and some people came to compete for the jackpot, jasper fruit, this fruit can help people quickly calm down and concentrate, and will not be disturbed by distracting thoughts, so many people are bound to win this.

"Look, it's Bi Cheng of the Nine Seas Sect, Chang Ren of the Wind and Fire Sect, Yu Ling'er of the Songshan Sect, wow, there are so many geniuses of the sects, hey, the one standing next to the city lord is the rumored Fourth Young Master, Murong Yu? It doesn't look like much. Many of the people present chattered.

Then I heard a Mediterranean man shouting and shouting on the central competition platform: "Silence, the city lord will tell you the rules of the competition." “

After the Mediterranean man finished speaking, the audience erupted in thunderous applause, and then Murong Han also carefully explained the rules.

A total of 100 players participated, and they duel in pairs without stopping until the top four are produced, and then the top four will face off in pairs, and then the champion will be determined from the remaining two.

Hearing this rule, everyone couldn't help but frown, it's okay to duel in pairs, but if you don't stop, this physical strength will not be able to support it. It doesn't matter if someone is sad or someone else, after all, a hundred people, the strength is uneven, and it will be carried out very quickly.

"Senior brother, there are so many people, I'm a little worried." Xiao Jiu said to Mu Zi'an on the side with a bitter face.

When Mu Zi'an heard Xiao Jiu say that he was worried, he also covered his forehead and posed as helpless, so helpless that he wanted to beat Xiao Jiu.

"You learned the first form half a month ago, and you comprehended the fourth layer of the "Heavenly Law Record", what do you have to worry about. Hearing Mu Zi'an's words, Xiao Jiu blushed embarrassedly, and Murong Han Xiao Jiu on the side nodded with satisfaction, the tiger father has no dogs, and his son is really a genius.

At the beginning of the game, the competition platform does not look particularly large, but when you actually stand on it, you will find that the space above it is always more than the naked eye can see, and a hundred people standing on it will be more than enough to fight.

Xiao Jiu stood on it, and the opponent he faced was a bald man who was a head taller than himself, only to see the bald man exert himself, his bronzed skin was exposed, and the sun's rays pierced Xiao Jiu's eyes on the bald man's body.

Xiao Jiu covered the light with one hand, and then said to the bald man: "You are a hooligan, you take off your clothes in broad daylight, and you use the light to carry out sneak attacks, which is despicable and shameless." “

The bald man was suddenly a little embarrassed by Xiao Jiu's words, and then threw his fist at Xiao Jiu's head in an instant.

Seeing this, Xiao Jiu hurriedly stepped back, and then stretched out his hand to grab the bald man's wrist, the bald man's fist stopped when it was about to hit Xiao Jiu's head, the bald man looked incredulous, he knew his strength, how could he be stopped by such a little kid.

The bald man saw that his fist couldn't pass, and he was about to raise his leg and kick at Xiao Jiu, however, Xiao Jiu reacted faster than the bald man, and silently thought in his heart, 'Rock and soil, hardening', I saw that Xiao Jiu's leg had undergone changes that were difficult for ordinary people to observe, and then the bald man was kicked out by Xiao Jiu.

Xiao Jiu looked at the bald man who fell to the ground, although he used the "Heavenly Law Record", but this is the most basic, and outsiders can't see it, and then walked to the bald man and said: "Lewd hooligan bald exhibitionist, your strength and your behavior don't seem to be very good." ”

Hearing Xiao Jiu's words, the bald man closed his eyes and pretended to be dead, seeing this, Xiao Jiu didn't say anything more. Suddenly, a sword light flashed, Xiao Jiu felt dangerous, and hurriedly dodged to the side, while the poor bald man completely fainted.

Xiao Jiu looked at the front, thinking to himself, sure enough, he can't stop, someone is sneaking up on him from behind.

A tall, thin man with long hair and a long black sword in his hand walked slowly towards Xiao Jiu, "My name is Yang Wei, little boy, don't say that I bullied you, take out your weapon, otherwise I will feel disgraced to win." ”

When Xiao Jiu heard Yang Wei's words, he couldn't help but laugh, although he was a child, he wouldn't look down on himself like this.

"Well, as you wish." After speaking, Xiao Jiu took out a sword from the Qiankun ring in his hand, this sword is called Chaoyun, which was given by Xiao Jiu on the green mountain and the green pine seeds.

Yang Wei looked at Xiao Jiu also holding the sword, and then looked disdainful, Xiao Jiu was angry when he saw Yang Wei's underbeaten appearance, and was raising his sword to slash at Yang Wei, and Yang Wei had already slashed over.

"Stinky boy, you're going to suffer in a trance, eat me with a thousand waves."

Xiao Jiu suddenly felt that the waves were rushing towards him, and then he raised his sword with his backhand and slashed over, blocking that move.

Seeing that Xiao Jiu blocked his thousand-layer waves, he couldn't believe it, and then used another move to split the sea and slash towards Xiao Jiu.

Seeing this, Xiao Jiu easily blocked it again, then jumped up, and said in his mouth: "Don't use your unpopular moves to test me, I can't be underestimated!" Immediately, Xiao Jiu slashed a sword at Yang Wei, Yang Wei saw that this sword was out of his mind, compared to this sword, his own moves were unsightly.

As the sword landed and the person fell to the ground, Yang Wei was defeated.

"Hahaha, it's worthy of being my son, it's amazing, and thank you little brother for teaching Yu'er over the past month."

"Uncle said with a smile, Xiao Jiu's talent is not bad, I just give a little guidance, this is inseparable from the master's cultivation in the past." Mu Zi'an replied softly after hearing Murong Han's words.

Just when the competition was going on hotly, suddenly a black-robed man attacked Xiao Jiu, who was fighting with someone, Xiao Jiu didn't react, and was immediately knocked to the ground.

Seeing this, Mu Zi'an and Murong Han hurriedly rushed over, one was a senior brother and the other was a father, and when they saw Xiao Jiu being attacked by a sudden black-robed man and flying to the ground, they were instantly angry.

"Who are you who dare to hurt my child, do you want to die?" Murong Han questioned the black-robed man with an angry expression.

And the black-robed man turned around and said to Murong Han and Mu Zi'an with a disdainful expression: "I am the fourth elder of the Black Mountain Sect, I came today just to win the heart of this little child, this little child's heart is magical, if you want to find death, I don't mind giving you a ride." “

Hearing that the black-robed man was here to take Xiao Jiu's heart, Mu Zi'an and Murong Han looked nervous, but it seemed that the so-called four elders of the Black Mountain Sect didn't know that Xiao Jiu's heart was born with a law heart, and they just felt special.

"Looking for death? I think it's right for you to find the dead, you don't want to leave here alive today, little brother, you go and help me look at Xiao Jiu, the fourth elder of the Black Mountain Sect, hmph, leave it to me to deal with. ”

Mu Zi'an is also an understanding person, and he can feel that the four elders are not something he can deal with, and he is not of much use there.

Just as Mu Zi'an was passing towards Xiao Jiu, a man and a woman blocked Mu Zi'an's way, and the two were Lin Hu and Han Jiuyou, who came over.

Mu Zi'an looked at Lin Hu and felt a familiar aura, as if he had seen it somewhere.

Mu Zi'an saw that the two of them were blocking his way, so he pulled out his sword and said to the two: "Get out of the way, you two, you can't beat me." ”

Lin Hu sneered when he heard Mu Zi'an's words, and then said, "Stinky boy, maybe I'm a little too arrogant, I have an account, and I want to settle it with you." ”

"Lin Hu, what nonsense are you talking about with him, you and I will take him down, that little kid is still there, he caught it, but he has made a great achievement." As soon as Han Jiuyou finished speaking, he and Lin Hu rushed towards Mu Zi'an, attacking left and right.

Seeing this, Mu Zi'an also calmed down, and was not carried away by anger, so he immediately raised his sword and slashed at Lin Hu, and then kicked at Han Jiuyou again.

Lin Hu and Han Jiuyou hurriedly dodged when they saw Mu Zi'an attacking.
