Chapter 177: Fenghua City
People's throats rolled with difficulty a few times, and they all looked at Lu Ming, if they didn't have him and rushed out rashly, they would definitely become one of the blocking stones, and they would still belong to the slippery cracks!
"I opened this road, I ......planted this tree"
Along with the song of the mountain, more than thirty robbers appeared on both sides of the mountain, and occupied the low places on the stone pile at great speed, their swords in their hands, bows and arrows, they all aimed at the merchants trapped in it, and looked at those big money bags with fierce eyes, and laughed one by one.
However, at this moment, a scream suddenly sounded, echoing in the valley, and the robber standing on the stone pile looked back in astonishment, but saw four figures shuttling rapidly, and every time they approached a companion, their swords would shine once, and they would take away the life of their companions, and among them there was a little girl with a delicate face......
In an instant, Lu Ming, Qing'er, and Ouyang Luo stood on the pile of stones, and Long Lin then walked up slowly, his sword blade pressed against the throat of a robber leader who was dressed and temperamental.
The robber leader's face was full of surprise, his eyes rolled to the sides with great difficulty, but all he saw were the corpses of his own battle-hardened men, and he could not imagine that his own careful plan could be shattered by the direct slash of his strong sword.
And the people who still didn't react, before they had time to be surprised, the battle was over, the merchants cheered, and many swordsmen had very ugly faces, they all knew that these masters were going to participate in the trial, maybe they might be their opponents.
"Hmm. Peak swordsman, very good. The Sword Saint of Destruction nodded with satisfaction, and a volley of sword intent struck him, directly sealing his power, and then said lightly: "Baby apprentice, your luck is much better than that of Master and my old man." ”
"One more sparring partner. Before Qing'er could react, all passers-by began to be envious.
"yes, if we weren't in a hurry, we would have seen another battle!"
"Anyway, this little girl. Kendo talent is really not covered. Her sparring partners should know better than we do in the future. ”
Sparring? What's going on? The strong robber hadn't yet escaped from the surprise of being sealed, and he saw the playful smile in the eyes of everyone in front of him, and he wanted to use me as a sparring partner for this little girl? But I am a robber, a king and a loser. You can't do this to me!
However, Long Lin's cold sword blade suddenly dispelled many thoughts in his heart. Then they were led into the crowd.
Whoosh! Swordmaster of Destruction shook his hand. A sword qi like a training seemed to tear the air apart, and slashed at the pile of stones, and the sword qi instantly turned into a cloud of pale gray smoke. Shrouded the stone pile. Then the pile of stones dissolves into a pile of powder.
There were no violent explosions, no stone dust splashes, and in the eyes of everyone, the stone seemed to be melted and completely destroyed.
"Huh?" The stout bandit leader's tongue fell out of his mouth in surprise, he looked at the dissolved stone in dismay, and then at the understated Sword Saint of Destruction, and stammered in surprise: "This... Sword Master, it's still the only Sword Saint of Destruction!" He said as he looked around in surprise, only to find that people were looking at him with a very satisfied smile on their faces, just like ...... New animals have come to the zoo.
Ma Mingshan smiled even more happily, and his excited pores seemed to scream, "Hahaha...... It seems that it's not just me who is unlucky! I have someone to accompany me now, which is great, and I won't be too lonely to be a sparring partner in the future. ”
Looking at Ma Mingshan's gloating smile, the new bandit leader was suddenly shocked: "It's you......?
"What's wrong with me? Aren't you Chen Gang known as a bloodthirsty violent bear and have no opponent in this area? What is wrong with you now? Do you have the ability to fight with others? The former bloodthirsty violent bear doesn't even have the courage to fight now, right?" Ma Mingshan looked encouraged.
"Cut! What is my ability? When you robbed me a few times, didn't you say, 'Don't say it's you, even if it's you, even if it's a sword master, don't come to my Ma Mingshan's land, otherwise, I'll let them know what ruthlessness is!'" But I think you're like a piece of rice cake that has been trampled on!" the new thief leader fought back unflinchingly.
"Hey! There is always a time when people are old, not like you are still young! I have lived for so long, I have not eaten anything, I have not seen anything, I have not enjoyed anything? It's you, who are young, and haven't had time to sleep with a few more beautiful girls, and it seems that the good time is going to be wasted, but it's a pity. ”
Looking at Ma Mingshan with a sigh on his face, Chen Gang gritted his teeth, and then said with a righteous face: "I'm not as dirty as you, I'm a swordsman." ”
"Swordsmen are robbers, don't be so high-sounding!" Ma Mingshan smiled.
Passers-by all had smiles on their faces, and in the process of hurrying, there was also some joy.
Lu Ming was not interested in the two robbers who were losing each other, but their sinister experience in the rivers and lakes would be very helpful to Qing'er.
The road was very peaceful, and he didn't encounter robbers and robbers again, looking at Fenghua City, which was gradually revealing its outline, Lu Ming sped up a little.
Ma Mingshan looked left and right on the road, and saw that none of his peers showed up as if they had gotten some news, and there was some loss in his heart, and those passers-by felt the same way.
In this way, the group entered the gate of Fenghua City, and then began to part ways.
Lu Ming saw that there was a specially set up reception office for the Sword Hall Organization at the gate of the city, so he walked over with a group of people.
Fenghua City is the largest city in the entire Qingyuan Continent, with a population of about five million, as the center of the sword civilization and military and political affairs of a state, it has a completely different intuitive and internal from other cities. The walls were five feet high and more than one foot wide, enough for four carriages to pass side by side at the same time, and the wide gates swallowed the crowd like a steel monster. Through the towering city walls, you can still see the arrow tower with eight arrow holes, like a silent multi-eyed beast, scanning the crowd as it enters the city gates.
"Our largest city in Qingyuanzhou really lives up to its name!"
Many swordsmen and passers-by standing at the city gate looked up and watched, expressing the most straightforward emotion in their hearts.
Looking at Lu Ming, who was completely different from everyone's feelings, and walked towards the reception indifferently, Lan Fengyu shouted a little anxiously: "Young Master, Young Master..." He didn't know Lu Ming's name, and knew that it was very impolite to ask the other party rashly, and through such two days of observation, he found with the shrewd eye of a businessman that this indifferent kid was the center, and befriending him was the right way, as for the destruction of the Sword Saint, this kind of high-end character was not something he could climb.
Lu Ming turned around indifferently and said, "Anything else?"
"This time, thanks to the care of the little brother, my net worth and life can be saved, here is 50,000 taels of silver tickets, I hope the little brother is not too little. My goods have been backlogged for a long time, and now I am in a hurry to make a move, so I can't accompany the little brother, if the little brother has time, or needs some financial resources, you can go to Cui Mingju to find me Lan someone, there is my annual guest room, you will be more convenient to do some things, where do you not meet in life, if there is fate, I hope that the little brother can recognize someone Lan. ”
Lan Fengyu was worried that Lu Ming would not accept the money, so he simply stuffed it in, and then hurriedly beckoned the caravan to leave. Lu Ming doesn't have a big concept of money, the other party is willing to give it, and he will accept it, which is also earned by his own strength.
"We are from the Maocheng Cuizhu Sword Academy, and we are here to sign up for the Sword Hall Trial Competition. The six-bladed sword master stood at the reception first, and when he saw that there were four middle-aged men in charge of registering and receiving him, his face returned to his previous arrogance, and said.
"It turned out to be a sword student from Maocheng, you were almost late, give me your sword student identity card. A middle-aged man at the reception desk took the identity card and began to write hard, then nodded: "Well, it's registered, I'll arrange a place for you to live first, please come with me." ”
The middle-aged man said that he left his seat and walked first, and said very enthusiastically: "After arranging the accommodation, you have to sign up immediately, there is not much time, the rules of the Sword Hall are very strict and unquestionable, so you must hurry up and ......."
Lu Ming watched the caravan leave, and also walked to the reception, and said lightly: "We are from the Star Sword Academy of Tiandu City, and now we have signed up for the trial competition organized by the Sword Hall." ”
"Tiandu City?" The thin receptionist in charge of receiving Lu Ming raised his brows when he heard these words, and looked at Lu Ming in front of him with a pair of triangular eyes: "It turns out that it was from that small place, I heard that this sword academy has not produced any good results for a long time, no wonder, how many people can there be in such a small place? I said that you come to participate in every trial competition, but you are also very persevering!"
The receptionist said, his eyes looked at the people behind Lu Ming very arrogantly, "Yo! This time, I still brought my parents, now bring all the identity cards, and those who don't have the identity card won't get a free room." ”
Lu Ming has seen too much of this kind of dog-eyed thing, so he won't care about anything with him. The old sword master frowned and took out the identity card he had prepared on the road, after all, he was very familiar with the process of the trial, and just for low-key consideration, he modified his identity.
Lu Ming's calmness became fear in the eyes of the receptionist, he took the identity card and looked left and right recklessly, and after comparing them one by one, he registered with a full posture, then stood up, shook his sleeves, and said: "Come with me, you will follow, I am not responsible if I get lost."
