Chapter 80: Once upon a time
"The dumplings are coming. ”
Qing'er came over obediently with a large tea tray with some dipping sauce and six plates of dumplings on it.
Long Linden felt his heartbeat beat a little faster, and secretly decided to attract her attention to worship herself.
"Senior sister, it's okay to greet senior brother about this, I'll come. Long Lin smiled, and had already taken out the most appropriate smile and figure, and walked over.
"Long Lin, you go and buy me some snacks such as smoked chicken and braised pork, which are the most famous in the city. The Sword Saint of Destruction raised his hand.
"Yes, master. ”
Long Lin hurriedly turned around and said respectfully, turned around and showed an apologetic smile to Qing'er before Shi Shiran walked to the door.
The Sword Saint of Destruction had a dumpling in his mouth, tasted the delicious taste, and exclaimed, "Delicious, delicious......! Come on, you two eat more. ”
After that, he picked up the extra plate of dumplings, poured them into Qing'er and Lu Ming's plates, glanced at Long Lin's disappearing figure, and pouted: "This kid, you can see that the amount of food is too big." ”
When Long Lin landed at his feet, he stumbled, almost fell to the ground on his heels, and he had the heart to cry.
Although he had just walked out of the gate and walked dozens of meters away, as long as he wanted to hear their voices, with the realm of the Second Blade Great Sword Master, he would definitely be able to hear them. And the master must know that he can hear!
Does the master think of me, or is there something I haven't done well?
Long Lin blinked, his face was confused, and he was apprehensive, so he obediently went to buy smoked chicken and braised pork.
"There's an opportunity in front of us. The old sword master put down his wine glass, his face was very formal: "In about a week, there will be a trial competition for swordsmen under the age of eighteen organized by the Sword Hall, and we two old fellows hope that you can participate." ”
"That's right. The Sword Saint of Destruction nodded, and said, "Participating in this competition, as long as you can achieve some good rankings, you will not only be recognized by the Sword Hall, but also have a large number of scarce resource rewards, including even good things that can only be purchased when you go to foreign countries, we think you can do it." Of course, no matter what the competition, there will be some risks, and we are only helping you in this matter, and it is up to you whether you agree or not, but I think you can definitely do it. ”
Lu Ming nodded, although what the two elders said was simple, they must have been decided after careful discussion, and they also needed to see more swordsmanship and get more resources, if they could find a larger sword formation, their realm problem would be solved, so they naturally agreed.
"This is feasible, and when the family affairs are taken care of, we will be able to set off. ”
"I'll go too. Qing'er said as she bit her chopsticks.
"That's not going to work. The Sword Saint of Destruction said very seriously: "You are still a little smaller, and the sword realm is just an eight-bladed swordsman, too weak, although it is only a national conference, but for the sake of interests, more people can do anything, I can't let you take risks." ”
"I'm just going to go, and I don't feel at ease when the young master goes by himself. Qing'er's chopsticks rattled loudly.
The Sword Saint of Destruction had a headache, but he personally witnessed the stubbornness of this girl, so he could only look at Lu Ming with a look for help.
"Don't go this time, concentrate on cultivation at home, with your sword realm improving so quickly, I want to wait for me to come back, you have the ability to go out and travel." ”
Lu Ming said as softly as possible. In fact, there is no room for negotiation in this matter, and he can't let Qing'er participate at all, even if he can't watch the excitement, the destruction of the sword body has been discovered by the old sword master in such a small place, if it is changed to a bigger and stronger place, maybe some people will be jealous of this sword body and kill it.
A killer like Lu Ming knows the dangers of the world, how can he let a simple child like Qing'er take such a risk.
"Yes! Qing'er slowly put down her chopsticks, got up and walked away.
Looking at the angry back of his precious apprentice, he seemed to exude a great resentment, and the Sword Saint of Destruction was distressed!
"Baby apprentice, you can cultivate at home with peace of mind this time, and when we come back, I will give you whatever you want. ”
Qing'er didn't look back, and pointed to the sky casually: "I want stars." ”
"This ......!"
The Sword Saint of Destruction was almost choked to death, looking up at the sky in amazement, it was the Sword Immortal Realm, and it was impossible to pick off the stars!
"Little Ancestor, just spare me, in fact, your young master is completely for your sake. ”
"What do you mean? Didn't he just look at your eyes for help?"
The Sword Destroyer shook his head very seriously: "That's not the case at all, think about it, don't your young master know how enviable your Destruction Sword Body is? Many powerful swordsmen, because they don't have a sword body, and they don't even have the power to fight back in front of the sword body of the same sword realm, they hate it! Jealous! Seeing that you are such a weak sword body, don't you start before you grow up? Your young master thinks about you very well and with good intentions. ”
"How do you know what he thinks?"
"He told me, and then he was too embarrassed to speak, and let me persuade you. ”
"When you think about it, that's really the case. Qing'er lowered her small shoulders and sighed: "Okay, I will stay at home honestly, and cultivate well, and I won't let the young master worry a little." ”
"Oh, that's my good apprentice. ”
The Sword Saint of Destruction knew that once Qing'er agreed, she would definitely keep her promise.
Out of the gate, the Sword Saint of Destruction almost burst into tears, when was it not someone else who came to persuade me to do something, and even used all kinds of ways to beg me how to be, so good, Lao Tzu was reduced to the point of racking his brains to coax his apprentice.
Who made me like you so much, and you are the only apprentice with the body of the Sword of Destruction?
When the morning light spilled into the room through the window lattice, Lu Ming, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, opened his eyes on time, and the essence of his black eyes flashed, as if an incomparably sharp sword shot through.
Today is the day of the noble advancement competition, and there can be up to ten places in this city that can become nobles, but there are many families reported this year, so everyone can only fight in the ring.
This point has been determined after signing up and testing the sword realm of the participating families.
Caressing the half-cut remnant sword in his hand, Lu Ming raised an eyebrow, now it is the sword realm of his great swordsman, and the sword marks have also become stronger, but he still can't see through this sword, and he can only continue to absorb the sword intent in it, and after the sword marks are washed, to strengthen his sword intent.
Lu Ming felt like a person holding a treasure chest, knowing that there would definitely be treasures inside, but lacking a key that could open the door to the treasure.
This key is strength.
After stroking the blade of the sword again, Lu Ming wrapped the remnant sword with a rhinoceros leather scabbard and placed it close to his ribs, this position can ensure that the sword can be released at the first speed when it is needed.
Lu Ming's hand was immediately placed on the other side of the table, which was a small and delicate tray with more than a dozen small but exquisite porcelain bottles on it, here were all kinds of healing pills, gauze, and sword qi pills that could quickly restore sword qi, all of which were prepared yesterday.
This is Lu Ming under reason, he is used to controlling everything, and he will never fight unprepared battles.
Of course, the time when the Sword Academy was intercepted by thirty-two people when they went home was an exception.
Put the pill in a small storage bag, and Lu Ming also put it close to his body, these are all life-saving things, and sticking them on his body can make people feel that they have a kind of security at all times.
In today's competition, Lu Ming doesn't know what awaits him, but he has the ability to deal with the unknown when he prepares everything.
No one likes the unknown, and Lu Ming is the same, it's just that the unknown will make him feel familiar.
On Earth, every mission is carried out, and everything except the goal is unknown.
Sensing Qing'er walking towards his room, Lu Ming grabbed the five-forged steel sword and walked out of the room indifferently.
"Young Master, everyone... are waiting for you to have breakfast. ”
In just one sentence, Qing'er has an indescribable sadness. The young master is going to fight hard again, this is almost a bright rush to the battlefield, what the result is, no one knows, when I can share some of it for him? I must grow up as soon as possible and have enough strength!
"Okay, let's eat together. ”
Lu Ming rubbed Qing'er's hair vigorously a few times, and then walked towards the banquet hall.
Usually, Lu Ming eats breakfast every day, and there is enough food to fill this excessive body that used to be a picky eater with various nutrients. But as long as there is a task, Lu Ming never eats breakfast. In his opinion, filling the stomach with food will slow down the reaction in a short period of time, and the angle of movement will also be affected somewhat.
But today's meal must be eaten, which can be regarded as letting the family see their confidence.
Lu Ming smiled bitterly, once upon a time, he would also consider the feelings of others, it seems that the family affection united in one place can indeed improve a person's emotional aspect.
In the ring in the central square of Tiandu City, Tang Yiyun's bloodstains had long since disappeared, and perhaps had turned into a speck of dust with its owner.
The ring has been surrounded by a neat circle of bright yellow silk, the flags of the tall trees at the four corners move with the wind, and the winged flying tigers painted on them are lifelike, setting off the majesty of the imperial court.
Around the ring, a seat will be prepared for each participating family, which has been marked with the name of each family, just waiting for the time to come.
After the participating families were seated, eight high platforms were built for those who had a certain reputation or power to watch the ceremony.
At this moment, a group of people slowly walked up to one of the highest platforms, which had already been paved with a red carpet, with expensive seats and refined vegetables and fruits, Du Yunfeng was bowing down to accompany the person walking in front, two maids who were very angry in both clothing and dress walked behind, and more than a dozen elite warriors were guarding the sword at the end.
