Chapter 8: A Taoist Priest

Cloud Dream City.

Qi Zhen's mansion ushered in an uninvited guest.

He was a man in a black robe and a hat on his head. There was a cyan sword at his waist, and his face was covered with a face scarf, so he couldn't see his true face.

Qi Zhen sat in the stone pavilion and drank tea, he was not surprised by the arrival of this person, he still drank the cup of tea before asking, "What are you doing?"

The black-robed man sat opposite Qi Zhen, poured himself a cup of tea, and said, "I came to you to learn from you, and I want to ask the great swordsman Qi how he felt about Li Xiao's tricks."

It was a woman's voice coming from under the hat.

Qi Zhen was unmoved, and said expressionlessly: "If you are here to make fun of me, then you can go."

The black-robed woman laughed loudly and said, "The dignified city lord of Yunmeng City, the third swordsman in the world, facing a person who has never heard of it before, you don't even dare to use a sword, you are really ashamed."

Qi Zhen ignored her ridicule, but the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile, and said: "Li Meng, you think too highly of yourself, the grudge between you and Li Xiao, Li Xiao didn't pay attention to it at all, it's just your mediocrity disturbing yourself."

This woman Qi is really not familiar, but she has heard of it.

Li Xiao was adopted by his master, and his name was also given by his master. His master has a biological daughter, and he once ran away in a bad mood because his master valued Li Xiao more, and he was at odds with Li Xiao.

Back then, Li Xiao accidentally killed his master, and he may not have had this woman's dark box operation.

Li Xiao's nominal junior sister is Li Meng, who is now standing in front of Qi Zhen.

Li Meng snorted coldly and said, "You are a person who doesn't dare to use a sword, and you are embarrassed to talk about me?"

Qi Zhen confronted each other and said, "You can save your life under Li Xiao's sword."

Li Meng's eyes were cold and he didn't speak.

Qi Zhen stood up and arched his hand: "I still have something to do, so I won't accompany you."

Li Meng also stood up and said, "You really don't plan to join forces with me?" If you can kill Li Xiao, you will not only be able to regain face, but your fame will be much greater than now, killing two birds with one stone, why not do it? ”

Qi Zhen sneered: "If you hadn't hired people to spread the news that I was defeated by Li Xiao's sword, how could I lose face?" I haven't settled this account with you yet, and I advise you to leave early before I don't want to make a move on a woman. ”

Li Meng clenched her fists, she wanted to punch Qi Zhen's unenlightened head, but she could only hold back. Even if Qi Zhen didn't even dare to use a sword in front of Li Xiao, he was still the third person in the world, and he was not in vain.

Qi Zhen walked away from the stone pavilion quickly, and after taking a few steps, he suddenly stopped, turned his head and said: "Don't think that you are doing these things very hidden, Li Xiao's mind is no worse than swordsmanship, he already knew that you were making trouble, otherwise with his ability, he would have killed you with a sword, not as simple as stabbing your arm, he didn't kill you, probably because he was afraid of dirtying his sword."

After speaking, Qi Zhen glanced at the wound on Li Meng's left arm and left without looking back.

Li Meng stared at Qi Zhen's distant back, his eyes were dim.

……

Kim Pan Country, Kyoto.

The city tower of the capital of Jin Pan Kingdom is magnificent, and at a glance, it is all blue brick walls, white jade steps, and glazed tiles. Fifty steps to a city tower, ten steps to a guard.

The capital of Jin Pan Kingdom is now particularly lively.

Those who enter and exit the city gate are all "mountain fairies" and high-rollers who are rarely seen.

There is a handsome boy in white who wins the snow, a stout man who is slashing, and a mountain fairy with a dusty temperament.

The capital of a small country can gather so many people, thanks to the blessed land of Yuchikou not far from the capital.

In three days, it will be the day when the blessed land of Yuchikou will be opened to the public.

Outside the city gate, a middle-aged man in a black robe with a sword hanging from his waist strode forward, followed by a white-clothed young man with a double sword on his back.

It was Li Xiao and Shi Yu who came from Kunshi Town, the southernmost part of the Jin Pan Kingdom.

"This Jinpan country is not big, but the capital is magnificent." Shi Yu stopped in front of the city gate and squinted at the tower.

"Grandeur is magnificent, but I don't know if it's a showcase, whether it can withstand my sword." Li Xiao disagreed, and walked leisurely towards the city.

Shi Yu hurriedly followed.

When you enter the city, it's a different story.

The streets are crowded with vendors, and unlike other towns, there are not many merchants selling silk and satin snacks, but most of them sell armor, swords, and cheats.

Shi Yu stopped in front of a talisman stall and rolled it up to look left and right. When he was in the Nine Swords Gate, he had heard of Fu Gong, which was a kind of Taoist mystical and mystical knowledge. It's just that looking at the crooked runes on it at this time, he can't see the reason.

"The guest officer is really a good eye, this talisman in your hand is a kind of high-grade talisman recorded in the 'Hundred Fu Sutra', called 'Wind Talisman', which can be worn against the wind by sticking it to the sole of your feet, which is really a must-have thing for going out and traveling." The stall owner immediately smiled, pointed to the talisman and introduced its role to Shi Yu, very attentive.

Shi Yu looked at Li Xiao.

Li Xiao took a sip of wine and disagreed. For him, a talisman of this quality is like a chicken rib.

Shi Yu asked the stall owner, "How to sell it?"

The stall owner spread out his two hands, put them on both sides of the front door, and said: "Ten taels of silver, Tong Su is not bullied!"

Shi Yu scoffed, quietly put the talisman back in its place, didn't look at the stall owner's eyes, got up and left.

The stall owner's voice came from behind him: "Guest officer, if you sincerely want it, you can ...... cheaply"

Shi Yu didn't look back.

Just as Shi Yu and Li Xiao were wandering around the street one after the other, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded on the street.

The crowd panicked.

Li Xiao grabbed Shi Yu's arm and flashed to the side.

I saw smoke and dust billowing not far away, and a woman with a knife galloped wildly from a horse.

Pedestrians on the street spread out to both sides, and some of them were knocked to the ground without hurrying.

Not far away, there was an old lady with limited mobility who walked slowly with her back to the direction of the horse rider on crutches, as if she was unaware of the strange surroundings.

Soon the pedestrians of the whole street leaned to both sides, and by the time the old lady noticed something was wrong, it was too late.

The saber woman's horse was less than ten paces away from the old lady, and the arrogant woman had no intention of reining in her horse.

The old lady was so frightened that she sat down on the ground.

Shi Yu was about to make a move, but he was taken the lead.

A young Taoist priest in a gray robe appeared out of thin air, blocking between the two. I saw that his arms were outstretched, his robe was windless, and his sleeves were bulging.

The woman with the saber not only did not restrain herself, but grinned. She whipped the horse. In her eyes, this Taoist priest who doesn't know what to do is already a piece of meat under her horse's hooves.

Soon, she couldn't laugh anymore.

The Taoist priest put his palm on the horse's face and pressed it gently.

But it was this fluttering palm that pushed the horse to the ground and knelt in front of the Taoist priest, his knees already shattered. And the Taoist priest did not move.

The woman with the saber was taken out by inertia, brushed the body of the Taoist priest, and rolled twice on the ground before stabilizing her figure.

She stood up, drew her knife and pointed at the Taoist priest, and shouted, "Niubi, are you looking for death?"

Her entourage surrounded the young Taoist.

"Something that I don't have the eyes to see." Li Xiao shook his head and sighed, in his eyes, the woman with the saber was already a dead person.

Sure enough, the Taoist priest came to the woman in an instant, grabbed her by the neck, and pulled her up from the ground.

"Arrogant and domineering, you treat human life like a mustard, and you deserve to live in the world?" The young Taoist priest's eyes were like torches, and his voice was like a bell, and every word knocked on the heart of the saber woman.

The woman with the saber blushed, but she couldn't say anything.

Hu Cong on the side was anxious, and shouted in a deep voice: "Stop!" She is the emperor's favorite third princess! ”

Everyone knows that the third princess of Jin Pan is the emperor's favorite daughter, and the emperor's doting has made her develop an arrogant and domineering temperament, and she has regarded human life like a mustard since she was a child.

The young Taoist priest looked at the servant with a sarcastic face, and asked, "So what?"

As he spoke, he increased the force on his hand. The third princess of Jin Pan Kingdom wailed in pain.

Hu Cong's face was gloomy, and he shouted: "Do you want to be an enemy of my Jin Pan Kingdom?"

The young Taoist sneered, "You think I don't dare? A big summer dog's leg, think I'll be afraid? I want to ask you emperor Lao'er, why are you so fat when I haven't been here all these years? ”

After speaking, he carried the three princesses of Jin Pan Kingdom from the ground and headed towards the direction of the Imperial City of Jin Pan Kingdom.

On the street, the old lady had not yet come to her senses. The servants of the third princess didn't care about the old lady, so they hurriedly got on their horses and chased after the imperial city.

Li Xiao patted Shi Yu on the shoulder and said, "Let's go, I'll show you a good show."

Shi Yu nodded, and Li Xiao grabbed his back collar with one hand, jumped up to the city tower, and ran in the direction of the imperial city by stepping on the eaves.

Li Xiao and Shi Yu stopped on a high cornice.

Shi Yu said: "For the sake of an old lady, that Taoist priest entered the palace, some of them are too unreasonable."

Li Xiao smiled slightly and said, "How can it be reasonable for people on the mountain to do things? And if I'm not mistaken, this person should be a certain master of Wudang Mountain, Wudang Mountain has a deep relationship with the royal family of Jin Pan Kingdom, I'm afraid it's not as simple as an old lady. ”

Shi Yu scratched his head, and stopped talking, the grievances and hatreds in this world are not something that he, a small brain, can understand.

in the Royal Palace.

The young gray-robed Taoist priest broke through the air and smashed it down with one palm.

The sword array created by the royal family of Jin Pan Kingdom opened on its own, and a long sword condensed by sword qi rose into the sky, flying towards the young Taoist priest like raindrops.

The gray robe waved its sleeves and smashed it down with another palm.

This applause was so loud that it was out of thin air.

There was a bang in the palace, deafening. It was actually a palm that broke through the sword formation that Jin Pan Guo had spent a hundred years building.

The palace suddenly fell into panic, and the eunuchs and palace maids were in chaos.

"Zhao Zhibing, get out and see me!"

A burst of shouts exploded in the imperial city.

The people in the palace looked up one after another, trying to see who called His Majesty the Emperor by his name.

Soon, an old man in a Confucian shirt appeared on the roof. But it is not the emperor of Jin Panguo, but the emperor's most important Xiangguo.

The old man in the Confucian shirt took the back with one hand and stroked his beard with the other, turning a blind eye to the tragic situation in the palace. He looked at the young Taoist with a smile and said, "Senior Wang Mian, I haven't seen you for a long time."
