Chapter 32 An Bo Sword Appreciation Meeting, Yellow Sand Meets Horse Bandits
This is a large mansion in Mihara-gun.
Half a year ago, Jiang Huaixi traveled here, deeply felt that this place is rich in food, and wanted to live for a while, but he didn't want to live in an inn or rent a house, so he bought such a big mansion in the center of the county.
Just half a month ago, Cheng Yujun also traveled to Sanyuan County, so Jiang Huaixi persuaded her to stay with her for a while, and by the way, let Cheng Yujun try her cooking skills.
However, Cheng Yujun is obviously not a person who will linger on food.
After living for half a month, she was going to leave Mihara County and continue to travel the rivers and lakes to hone her kendo.
Faced with Jiang Huaixi's retention, Cheng Yujun did not explicitly refuse, but smiled lightly: "Aren't you complaining about the lack of good seafood ingredients in Qingzhou these days?" How about I bring you some back from my trip to Ambo this time? ”
Two years have passed, and this girl, who has been concentrating on kendo, has become more bright and beautiful, and her body is also tall and exquisite.
She is not yet seventeen years old, and she already has a bit of the demeanor of a kendo master in terms of temperament.
"Yes, yes." Jiang Huaixi stroked her palms and smiled, and she no longer continued to keep Cheng Yujun, An Bo Country is a famous place for seafood in inland counties, and she has always wanted to use An Bo Kingdom's seafood to make delicious food.
At this time, although Jiang Huaixi was much taller than when he had grown up in Jinxia Mountain, he was slim and elegant, and his appearance was much more open, but probably because he was born with a baby face, he still looked a little immature.
"You, don't know how to make good food, you may not be able to waste your martial arts." Cheng Yujun was half joking, half concerned.
"I understand, Sister Cheng, you can rest assured." Jiang Huaixi said with a smile, "Look at the past half a month, when have I relaxed my practice?" Now that I've got into the details, I should be able to refine the essence soon, so you just wait for me to make a name for myself on the list! ”
"Haha, okay, I'll wait for you!" Cheng Yujun also laughed, at this time she seemed to think of something, turned her head to look to the west, her eyes flickered slightly, "I don't know if he has gone down the mountain?" ”
"Who?" Jiang Huaixi also looked to the west, and then suddenly realized, "You mean Senior Brother Xujing?" Ha, I know that Sister Cheng, you have been thinking about him for two years. ”
"Little girl, what do you want?" Cheng Yujun flicked Jiang Huaixi's head lightly, and said with a smile, "I was thinking that he would go down the mountain to become stronger, so that he could learn swordsmanship with me and help me practice." ”
"Is that so?" Jiang Huaixi blinked his eyes wide, and then snapped his fingers and said, "Calculate the time, Senior Brother Xujing should also complete the Divine Power Realm, it is estimated that he will go down the mountain in the near future." Speaking of which, I owe him a big white goose. ”
"Then you have to go back to Tianchi to catch your goose first." Cheng Yujun smiled lightly.
"Indeed." Jiang Huaixi nodded seriously, and then asked, "Sister Cheng, you haven't told me yet." You're in such a hurry to go to Ambo Country, isn't there anything interesting there? ”
"It's not fun, but there are things I'm interested in." Cheng Yujun turned to look to the east, "It is rumored in the rivers and lakes that there is an old farmer in Anbo Guojing County who dug up a tomb more than two thousand years ago when he was plowing the fields.
"There are dozens of top-notch weapons in the tomb, as well as three treasure weapons, and three scrolls of sword books. Although these were all obtained by the Wang family in Jingxian County, the Wang family did not plan to keep them private, but planned to hold a sword appreciation party and welcome young warriors on the rivers and lakes to participate. ”
"Wow, a tomb more than 2,000 years ago!" Jiang Huaixi couldn't help but exclaim when he heard this, "Nine hundred years of the Great Zhou Dynasty, seventy years of Great Yu, and fifteen hundred years of war and chaos in all countries, this is the tomb of the last year of Daxi and the early years of the Warring States Period!" ”
"Hmm." Cheng Yujun said, "Sharp weapons and treasures are not uncommon today, but I want to take a look at the casting process of the Warring States Period, and the most important thing is the sword spectrum of the Warring States Period." ”
"Hey, I know that you can't resist the temptation of kendo the most." Jiang Huaixi had an expression that was really yours, and then arched his hand and said, "Then I won't be retaining, Sister Cheng, let's not change the green mountains, and the green water will flow forever!" ”
"Where did you learn the quips?" Cheng Yujun smiled, and then said, "Stay here alone, remember to take care of yourself." ”
"Don't worry!" Jiang Huaixi patted his little chest, "I'm amazing, it's Sister Cheng, don't forget the seafood you promised to bring me!" ”
……
The old road of the cold pass, the long yellow sand into the sky.
This is the only way out of Yongzhou, adjacent to the desert of northern Xinjiang, and the yellow sand rolls all year round.
Before Dayu swept the world and unified the nineteen states, Youfang and Feng fought for five hundred years in order to compete for Hanguan City on this road, and countless soldiers and strong men were buried here.
Among them, there are many god-level powerhouses.
It is said that the desert in the north of Xinjiang was also a fertile field thousands of years ago, and it was because of the five-hundred-year war between Fang and Feng that many god-level powerhouses fell here, which changed the topography and celestial phenomena here for a long time.
Du Heng sat in the carriage transporting darts, followed by more than a dozen freight carts, each of which was guarded by two or three dart masters.
He looked at the north, felt the invisible qi between heaven and earth, and said secretly in his heart: "The atmosphere of the soil in the north is very strong, if I want to accept the scenery of the earth in the future, I can go to the desert of the north to try." ”
At this time, Du Heng had already left Shanyin County for half a month, and on the way, he had solved a lot of horse bandits who came to rob darts, among which there were three powerhouses of the Divine Power Realm, which could play a role in sharpening martial arts on the surface.
"After getting out of the cold pass, you will go to Qingzhou, you can change the route to Liangbin County and take the waterway, and you can go to Hezhou in half a month." Du Heng estimated the itinerary and said secretly, "This period of time is just pretending to digest the grind brought about by several battles, and it is logical to 'break through' to the subtle realm." ”
What the Divine Power Realm lacks in the Subtle Realm is the actual combat experience between life and death, and it doesn't take long.
Therefore, some extremely talented martial artists can usually break through to the subtle realm within half a year after entering the power of the rivers and lakes, and after another half a year, they will almost be able to complete and begin to prepare for the refining of the marrow.
When the Yujiang Patriarch went down the mountain to practice, it took him a month to break through to the subtle realm.
Du Heng intends to benchmark as always.
"However, now that it has only solved a few waves of horse bandits and three divine power realms, it is difficult to be convincing to break through after such 'grinding'." Du Heng looked at the pass ahead, which was still a little deserted, and said secretly in his heart, "It would be nice if there were a few more, it stands to reason that there should be some horse bandits hidden here, right?" ”
In front of it is the former Hanguan City, but it has been abandoned as early as the Dayu period, and now there is only a barren hill and broken walls, and there are no people in a radius of more than ten miles.
However, this terrain is a good place for bandits to lurk, and some caravans or dart teams are robbed here every year.
The dart team continued to walk forward for a distance, and Du Heng suddenly raised his eyebrows, almost with joy on his face.
At this time, Wang San, who was with the team, trotted over and whispered to Du Heng: "Immortal Chief, the situation ahead is not quite right, there may be horse bandits in ambush, please be ready." ”
Along the way, Du Heng has repeatedly shown his skills, which has convinced these dart masters.
In their eyes, as long as it is at the level below the subtle realm, it is absolutely impossible for anyone to be the opponent of this Void Quiet Immortal.
"Hahaha! Good eyesight! At this moment, a loud laugh suddenly came from the back of the barren hill in the distance, "We are worthy of being experienced dart masters, we can be found here!" ”
Immediately afterward, the sound of horses' hooves shook the ground.
Accompanied by the rolling yellow sand, more than two dozen horses charged, all of them riding burly men with steel knives in their hands.
The man at the head rode on a white horse, dressed in armor, and carried a large spear, and was very valiant.
"Not good! It's Antong North! He is a master of subtle perfection! Wang San's face changed suddenly, and he said in horror, "Isn't he in the northern frontier all the year round?" How did you get here?! ”
