Chapter 263: Breathing
Long Zhan sighed, wanting to talk to her, but he felt that there was no common language, if he told a story, it would be his own one-man show, and this woman's reaction was not particularly intense, so there was really no sense of accomplishment.
So what else can you do? Play cards? Rubbing mahjong? Well, no one here will know, but you can develop it, the key is that you don't have these props, and I don't know if you can do it, if you can, you can build a mahjong parlor, qipai room...... Chess!
Long Zhan slapped his forehead,
"How did I forget this?" Long Zhan didn't say a word, ran into the study quickly, and took out a chessboard from it.
These are all standard in the study, and they have always been there, but he has never been useful.
"Idle is idle, let's play chess." The dragon battle set up the chessboard, and put a box of chess pieces on one side,
"Do you want to come?" Meng Wanlin thought about it, and also felt that it was not good to sit like this, and she also wanted to know more about Dragon War, and it was just right to play chess, so she hummed lightly.
"Okay, you go down first." Long Zhan said.
"Don't you guess first?" Meng Wanlin asked, and thought to herself, do you want me? He is so confident that his chess skills must be higher than mine?
"Guess first?" Long Zhan woke up suddenly, and slapped his forehead again,
"Oops, I'll go, I forgot, you guys play Go. Hmm~ annoyed. ”
"What's wrong?" Meng Wanlin looked at him speechless and asked curiously.
"Nothing." Long Zhan smiled, and then said: "Actually, I don't know how to play Go, I can only play backgammon, do you want me to teach you to play backgammon?" "He certainly wouldn't, and neither would the original owner.
That guy doesn't know how to learn, he is idle, how can he play Go.
"Backgammon?" Meng Wanlin hadn't heard of it.
"Hey, let me teach you, this rule is very simple, that's it, you see......" Long Zhan took out five pieces and put them on the chessboard,
"Five pieces horizontally like this, or vertically like this, diagonally, as long as there are five pieces on a line, it is considered a win. Isn't it simple? ”
"What kind of trick is this? I haven't seen it. "Meng Wanlin is still seeing it for the first time, and I think it is novel.
"This is backgammon, come, let's learn while playing." Long Zhan took it back and dropped a child casually,
"It's up to you, you just have to find a way to block me, or you can get five of them yourself." Meng Wanlin looked at the dull wooden, she was actually very smart, meaning that when it came to this step, she understood it after thinking about it a little, so she decisively fell and blocked Long Zhan.
The dragon battle also followed suit. Meng Wanlin hesitated a little before she fell. The two of you came and went, and after a while, they made more than a dozen hands.
However, because of the reason that the dragon battle was the first, and the price comparison was familiar, it didn't take long to win. He pointed to the black line and said, "Look, this way you win, isn't it easy?" Meng Wanlin nodded,
"I will."
"Okay, then we'll come again, this time you first." Dragon Fight let her take the lead. Meng Wanlin was also not polite, and fell directly.
Long Zhan followed, and then Meng Wanlin went down again...... The two played another game, and they still won the dragon battle, but the number of fallen sons was much more than before.
Go ahead, and the result will be the same. And then down, it's still a dragon battle to win. And then again...... I don't know how long it took, after Meng Wanlin fell a white son, the five sons were in a row.
Looking at the chess pieces on the table, Meng Wanlin suddenly shouted,
"I won, I won......" She's just a little girl after all, and she still has playfulness, and after losing so many games, she finally won a game, it's no wonder if she can't be happy.
However, after being happy, he saw that Long Zhan was staring at him, and hurriedly restrained his joy and returned to his previous dignified and upright color.
Long Zhan tilted his head and said, "Hey, you're really boring, you can laugh if you want to, why do you always have to keep a strain?" Aren't you tired? Meng Wanlin didn't speak, just looked at the five children, her eyes flashing.
"Are you still coming back?" Long Zhan asked. Meng Wanlin won a rare time, and felt that she was making rapid progress, of course she had to come, so she hummed lightly.
"I said I didn't want to come?" Long Zhan asked again. Meng Wanlin hummed heavily.
"What? Can't you speak? To come? Long Zhan stared at her and asked. Meng Wanlin stared at him, faintly angry, and finally said loudly: "Come!" ”
"Hahaha......" Long Zhan laughed,
"Isn't it much more comfortable? So, don't always be nervous, laugh when you should laugh, cry when you should cry, joy, anger and sorrow, human nature, why are you always holding back? Come on. Meng Wanlin was stunned for a moment, and then understood.
I feel a lot more comfortable, and I feel lighter. However, she still snorted lightly, and fell directly down, falling heavily on Tian Yuan.
It doesn't matter, it's not Go, you can play wherever you want.
"Hey, hey, you're all in the fire realm, don't break the chess pieces." Long Zhan complained, and then followed.
Meng Wanlin's strength was a little lighter, but Luozi was still very loud. Long Zhan raised his eyes and looked at this woman, thinking that she was sick.
I was sick first, I didn't have any emotions, I said a few words to you at this time, and I was angry, what do you mean?
Deliberately picky? Women are such a nuisance. casually fell a son, but as soon as he fell, Long Zhan regretted it, how did he go?
Damn, this woman messes with me. Meng Wanlin's eyes lit up, and she quickly fell down, but in fact, the winner was already divided.
Long Zhan was furious,
"This game doesn't count."
"Why not?"
"You make such a loud noise, messing with my mind, you are cheating."
"The joys, sorrows, sorrows, and sorrows you said yourself, human nature, I release my emotions, can't I make a little louder?" Meng Wanlin asked proudly.
Long Zhan was speechless, attacking the shield of the son with the spear of the son, and he was still playing with a bird. But I have to say that Meng Wanlin's appearance is really good-looking.
The smug look, the slightly pursed lips, the burning eyes of pride and contempt, and the beautiful eyebrows like the green peaks of distant mountains...... Long Zhan couldn't help but swallow his saliva, afraid of evil thoughts, he hurriedly lowered his head, put away his son, and said: "Anyway, it doesn't count, if you don't accept it, we will play another game, if you think you can't win, then forget it." ”
"Let's go down." Meng Wanlin was a little angry, she had to win Long Zhan's heart today.
The two started again, but this time Long Zhan said: "Hey, let's guess first, who comes first and who comes last, we have to follow the rules." Meng Wanlin has no opinion.
The two guessed first, and the result was that the dragon battle went first. Backgammon is still too simple after all, and those who really know how to play can basically win as long as they make the first move.
So, in the end, the game was won by the dragons.
"Tut-tut, hey, Dugu is seeking defeat." Meng Wanlin was unwilling,
"Again."
"Not coming." Long Zhan decisively refused, both of them will go down now, and the next thing is who wins first, so what's next.
He won't give Meng Wanlin a chance to win himself.
"You ......" Meng Wanlin was really angry, even more angry than before, and immediately looked at herself to win, but this guy didn't come.
How so? Her small breasts rose and fell slightly, and she stared at Long Zhan for a long time. Long Zhan turned his face away, trying not to look at her, a little weak-hearted.
Meng Wanlin suddenly said: "Are you afraid of losing?" "How do you know...... Long Zhan shook his head,
"What am I afraid of?" Meng Wanlin said: "Then why didn't you come?" Long Zhan still didn't look at her, and his head looked at other places when he spoke.
"It's boring, it's not challenging, what's so fun about abusing vegetables, it's boring......" Meng Wanlin said: "I think you're just scared." Long Zhan said: "Whatever you say, you can be happy, or just when you win, I don't care." "What's the matter when I win, Meng Wanlin is so angry, but Long Zhan just doesn't come, and she can't do anything.
In the end, the little girl was so angry that she smashed the chessboard with one fist and went back to her room in a rage.
Long Zhan was taken aback, he didn't expect this person to have such a big temperament, he originally thought he was a lady in everyone, but he was so violent when he was angry.
Fortunately, I have Qi, otherwise I have to be careful when I speak in the future. In the second half of the night, hearing the sound of beating on the street, Long Zhan tidied up his clothes, turned around and disappeared into the darkness.
The cold winter night is exceptionally quiet, although there is no curfew in Sioux City, but the streets are still empty, there may be a few outside the gambling house and the green building, but there are certainly not many.
Long Zhan led a horse and rode away. This horse was given by Huo Conghan, and it was in good condition, but Long Zhan didn't like it very much, and it hurt his buttocks.
If it weren't for the sake of hiding his strength, he would definitely take a leap forward, and with his cultivation, he felt that it would not take much time to be outside the eastern city.
However, not long after riding his horse, Long Zhan suddenly heard some noises. He continued to ride a horse and listened attentively.
"The two on the left, the saber, the breath is stable, the middle of the water body realm, the three on the right, two people with swords, one with a crossbow, the realm is slightly lower; The two behind, a martial artist and a swordsman, are ...... realms The water body is in great consummation, and they are all wearing military boots. "Dragon War tightens the reins,
"It's Guan Wenhao again. It seems that instead of looking for him, he came to me instead. He sped up a little and went straight to the Changxin Bridge outside the east city.
The terrain is empty, and there are almost no people around, but when someone arrives, you can see it at a glance from the bridge.
After Dong Yuxing, who was wearing a black robe, saw the dragon battle, he reminded a sword man behind him who was also wearing a black robe,
"Here we are." Under the black robe, a pair of cloudy and slightly bright eyes were revealed, and he looked forward for a while, frowning slightly,
"He has a few tails behind him." Dong Yuxing gritted his teeth and said, "Why didn't this guy deal with it?" The man said, "Isn't he uncultivated, he definitely didn't find these people." Dong Yuxing asked, "Then what now?" The man thought for a moment, and said with a cold light in his eyes: "Since you want to talk, then give some sincerity to talk." Dong Yuxing comprehended, carrying his sword and disappearing in the darkness.
Behind Long Zhan, one of them said, "The terrain ahead is too flat, everyone disperse a little, don't let him find out." ”
"Yes." One person replied.
"You, you, go around from the left, you, you, go to the right, you go back and inform the young city lord, you and I follow from a distance, don't get too close." The man with the sword commanded.
"Order." The rest of the people answered and immediately dispersed. However, not long after the crowd parted, a scream broke the silence of the night.
Then another, and then another...... There were four screams in a row, and the four people scattered left and right had already been killed.
After a while, there was another scream, and the one who went back to report the news was also slaughtered. The sword man and the martial artist looked at each other, both feeling a hint of panic.
"Someone!" Takefu suddenly turned around and looked behind him, only to see Dong Yuxing dragging the man with the crossbow arrow slowly over.
In the moonlight, Takeo saw the appearance of Dongyuxing, shocked and angry,
"Dongyuxing, you ......" The sword flashed, and the Great Perfection martial artist was cut off by a sword. In the first realm, it is so easy to fight, not to mention that the other party still uses a sword.
The man with the sword was furious, and just as he was about to draw his sword, he was cut off by Dong Yuxing's arm, which was neat.
"Ah~" The man with the sword screamed, trying his best to suppress the pain. Dong Yuxing beckoned, and more than a dozen people ran out of the darkness,
"Elder."
"It's all settled?"
"Yes."
"Clean up and clean up."
"Yes." Dong Yuxing didn't care anymore, and walked towards Changxin Bridge with the man with the sword. When Long Zhan heard the scream, he looked back, then laughed lightly, continued to run wildly, and came to the Changxin Bridge in a short time.
The bridge is built on a river, and there are willow trees on both sides of the river, but there are no green willow branches in this season, otherwise this place must be a beautiful scenery.
When he came to the bridge, Long Zhan tied his horse to the side, and when he didn't see anyone, he walked directly onto the bridge. Suddenly, a person rose up from under the bridge like an eagle spreading its wings, and when it happened to be in line with Long Zhan's line of sight, he suddenly stabbed out his sword and stabbed Long Zhan's face.
Long Zhan was shocked, but immediately relaxed again, not hiding or pressing. Sure enough, when the sword stabbed in front of Long Zhan's eyes, almost a few centimeters away, it stopped.
Long Zhan said with a smile: "It is worthy of being the head of Xia, you can put it freely, and you can accept it freely, admire." ”
"Hmph." This person is none other than Xia Xiucheng, the head of the Qionglong faction, and also the senior brother of Dongyuxing. I've met with Long Zhan before, but I don't have much to do with it.
Xia Xiucheng put away his sword and stood with his back to Long Zhan and said, "Say, what do you want to talk to me about?" ”
"Didn't Master Xia ask knowingly?" Long Zhan pointed to the place where he had killed just now,
"You've made your choice, do you still need to talk?" Xia Xiucheng snorted coldly: "I can kill them, I can also kill you, I also have room for maneuver." Long Zhan shook his head,
"Kill me? Do you dare to kill me? Didn't your brother tell you who he had met? Xia Xiucheng squinted his eyes and turned his head to look at Dong Yuxing, who was dragging the sword man to arrive, and saw that his head was looking at him, and he didn't know why, so he asked, "Master, what's wrong?" Xia Xiucheng asked, "What happened that night, do you still have something to tell me?" Dong Yuxing opened his mouth, he didn't reveal a word about Yu Hongkuo, for fear of angering this side.
He only told the head that Long Zhan wanted to join forces with them, and at the same time told the head of the head some things that Long Zhan had done recently, and that's it.
Of course, Long Zhan also said some of his remarks to him that day. Because if he doesn't talk about that, he is afraid that the head of the house will not come.
Long Zhan waved his hand and said, "Don't embarrass Elder Dong, he won't tell you because he doesn't dare to say it." The people behind me were too shocked by him. Xia Xiucheng didn't care,
"How powerful can he be, can't he even mention his name?" Long Zhan said: "The name is nothing, he just doesn't want anyone to know about his existence." As for whether he is powerful or not, I don't count, but Elder Dong has experienced it firsthand. He turned to look at Dong Yuxing and asked, "Elder Dong, what realm do you think that person is?" How do you compare to your brother? Xia Xiucheng also looked over.
Dong Yuxing swallowed his saliva, recalling that night's fight, in fact, it couldn't be regarded as a fight, he couldn't make a move, and the opponent didn't make a move, just a look made him unable to move.
He was silent and said, "I don't know the specific realm, but it should be in the ranks of immortals." "Immortal, just two words, Xia Xiucheng understands the weight of it, and only after cultivating the golden pill can he be an immortal and a fairy, then it is not comparable to a secular person, let alone a person who can be compared.
Long Zhan asked with a playful smile, "Eh, Elder Dong, you haven't said it yet, how does that person compare to your senior brother?" How many tricks can he take from your brother? Dong Yuxing turned his head abruptly and glared angrily.
Xia Xiucheng also looked embarrassed, you said that you are an immortal, what are you comparing me to? Insult me?
"Since you have such a figure behind you, why should you join forces with us, with his ability, who would dare to stop you?" Long Zhan shook his head,
"Elder Xia's words are taken for granted, the world is so big, have you seen how many immortals walked down to earth? They don't want to get into trouble with worldly things, lest they get into cause and effect. So, there are some things that we have to do. Just like Qingling Mountain, building buildings and immortal pavilions, aren't they all for us mortals to do, how can they immortals do these things themselves. Xia Xiucheng understood that this was the same as the emperor building palaces and mausoleums, he was recruiting people everywhere and letting them repair them, and it was impossible to do it himself.
Those mountain people, who claim to be immortals, are naturally even more unlikely to do these jobs, so these chores are generally handed over to the people under the mountain to do.
In fact, the role of the Luochen family is mainly this, to build immortal pavilion buildings for those mountain sects, and to deal with the miscellaneous things that the immortals are unwilling to do.
Otherwise, what's the use of the Dust Family? Xia Xiucheng said: "So, you are helping the immortals?" Long Zhan smiled and said nothing.
Xia Xiucheng shook his head and said: "This is unlikely, you are still the third young master of the Long family, the future head of the Long family, so it is reasonable for those immortals to find you to do things, but you are obviously a layman now, and if you say something unpleasant, it is a dog who has lost his family, how can those immortals still look for you?" Long Zhan said: "I'm not doing things for the immortals, I just reached some agreements with the immortals, as for what the agreement is, I can't tell you for the time being." You just need to know that there are immortals behind me, and I can make your Dome Sect strong. Xia Xiucheng said with a smile: "Can you make our Dome Sect stronger?" Why are you? Long Zhan shook his head with a smile, and looked at Dongyuxing again,
"Didn't you tell you what I said?" Xia Xiucheng looked at his junior brother, what else is there to hide from me?
Dong Yuxing said nervously: "You have so much, I don't remember everything." Long Zhan sighed, and had to repeat: "Hey, it's my wife, Meng Wanlin, the eldest lady of the Meng family, do you know what realm she is?" Fire Spirit Realm, do you know how long she has been with me? From the day of the wedding to today, it's only been a few months, and it only took a few months to cultivate to the Fire Spirit Realm, don't you feel strange? Xia Xiucheng looked at Dong Yuxing, who nodded,
"It's indeed the Fire Spirit Realm." Xia Xiucheng was shocked, he had cultivated to the Fire Spirit Realm in a few months? He gasped, you must know that he cultivated to the Fire Spirit Realm, and he only reached it after he was thirty years old, and the other party, a teenage female doll, had only cultivated for a few months before reaching the Fire Spirit Realm, which was really depressing.
"She's a genius?"
"Well, sort of. But no matter how good the talent is, can you cultivate to the Fire Spirit Realm in a few months? "Dragon Battles generally admit it, generally don't admit it, leave room for it.
"What do you mean...... There are other reasons as well. Xia Xiucheng heard the sound outside the strings. Long Zhan was not verbose, took out a piece of paper from his arms, and handed it directly to Xia Xiucheng.
Xia Xiucheng took it and took a look, and his expression changed greatly,
"This is ......" Long Zhan made a silent gesture,
"Master Xia just knows it." Dong Yuxing also came over to take a look, and was also shocked. It turned out to be breathing and two exercises.
Cultivation is like mountaineering, and good exercises are like choosing a convenient mountaineering path, and if you walk well, you will naturally be able to climb to the sky in one step.
The reason why the disciples of ordinary sects are not as good as those of those sects is that they can't do the exercises and don't choose a convenient way to climb the mountain.
For example, one is walking along the stone steps, the other is climbing and moving up, which one gets to the top of the mountain first, isn't it clear at a glance?
Of course, those who are gifted, those who are superior to guide the way, and those who have the secret treasure of the elixir, are different. Just say that under the same conditions, it must be the former.
The reason why those great sects are great sects is because their exercises are mystical and mysterious, and they have profound backgrounds.
this
What does the word "heritage" mean? If you get a family, it means that the family has a strong foundation and is rich; Put it in a country, that is, the culture is far-reaching and the history is long.
Can a country with a history of two or three hundred years be compared with a country with a history of five thousand years? Shoes don't deserve it!
Therefore, if a second-rate sect like Qionglong Mountain wants to compete with other sects in the rivers and lakes, it is impossible to have good exercises and a deep family background.
And what Dragon War gave just happened to make up for them. Of course, this alone is definitely not enough, and more exercises are needed.
But Xia Xiucheng and Dong Yuxing are already a little moved, they are both masters, whether this exercise is good or not, they can see it at a glance.
Not to mention anything else, the breathing technique alone is not comparable to their sect. After Xia Xiucheng finished reading it, he let out a long breath,
"Is this the practice of the Falling Dust Family?" Long Zhan nodded,
"Even though there are only two, it is enough to have these two. Whether it is the Qingling Sword Dictionary or the Spirit Ape Zhengquan, they can walk sideways on this river and lake, as long as they don't meet those top masters, ordinary people can't help it. Xia Xiucheng said: "How easy is it to practice, do you see how many dragon family members can walk sideways in the martial arts?" What he means is that the Long family, as a Luochen family, must know that this exercise must be more than just dragon battles, if this exercise is really unparalleled in the world, then why didn't you see the figure of the Long family in the martial arts.
