Chapter 229: Gathering (I)
Lu Chaohuan said word by word: "You said that Zhao Lin has a chance of winning against the four people of Basan, Borta, McQueen, and Li Taiqing?" ”
Yang Lin didn't think about it, spread his hands, and said very simply: "I don't know either." ”
Lu Chaohuan was surprised: "Brother Yang, as the head of the inner courtyard, how can he not be clear?" Are you worried that I'll leak the news......"
Yang Lin hurriedly shook his head and said seriously: "Senior Brother Lu, I won't tell you, I really can't say. ”
"Last time, the Flame Sect sent five Blood Realm masters to assassinate Zhao Lin and trap him in the outpost, if you want me to say that in that case, he should definitely die!"
"But the result? The five Blood Realm masters who were in the prime of life were all killed by him! ”
Lu Chaohuan's face changed, and he said softly: "I also think it's incredible. ”
Yang Lin grabbed the teacup on the table and took a sip, and continued: "Zhao Lin made some limelight in the last Neibi meeting, and he attracted the assassination of the Flame Sect, so in the past six months, I haven't let him fight anyone again. ”
"First, I don't want to hit the confidence of other disciples, and secondly, I want to hide my strength, even if I don't assassinate him, I may be targeted."
As he spoke, he shook the book in his hand, "These are ready-made examples. Although the competition relies on strength, it is also important to play on the spot, and knowing the opponent in advance will naturally give you an advantage. ”
"Brother Yang is still thoughtful! But ......"
Lu Chaohuan breathed a sigh of relief, and then a smile appeared on his face, "Zhao Lin has been cultivating under your nose, so you still know a little bit, right?" ”
"What exercises are you good at, what are your strengths, and what are your weaknesses?"
Yang Lin touched his shiny bald head, and said helplessly: "You have to inquire about one, two, three, right?" That's it, I'll pick up what I know. ”
"Zhao Lin's exercises include Heavenly Frost Fist, Three Yin Claws, Wind Chopping, and Cloud Turning and Rain."
"Fists, palms, claws, body, legs, all practiced!"
Lu Chaohuan was a little uncertain and said: "With so many exercises, will it be a bit much?" ”
Yang Lin waved his hand and said: "Not much, if you are not good at learning and art, you can't chew too much, Zhao Lin is proficient, and besides, which disciple doesn't have three or five exercises?" ”
Lu Chaohuan thought about it and asked, "What does Brother Yang think his strengths are?" ”
Yang Lin thought for a moment and said: "The strength, speed, wind and ice on the bright side are two true qi, I won't say more, I think the strongest is the actual combat ability." ”
"Actual combat ability?"
Lu Chaohuan was interested, "Tell me in detail." ”
Yang Lin said: "Don't look at him is only twenty years old, his mind is far more mature than his peers, his shots are extremely stable, and he has a ruthless energy. ”
"As I said just now, the five Blood Realm masters of the Flame Sect were all killed by him, which disciple could do it?"
Lu Chaohuan pondered for a while, and the corners of his mouth turned upward, "So, Zhao Lin's strength is above Xiao Jin, He Liancheng, Huang Guanglie and others?" ”
Yang Lin affirmed: "Of course. ”
Lu Chaohuan leaned back, crossed his hands together, and said with a smile: "After you say this, I think Zhao Lin can fight with these four people." ”
"That's what you said, I didn't say it."
"Hahahaha......"
……
Two days later, two groups of people from Liyang Sect and Zhennan Sect rushed to Nanluo City.
He was accompanied by officials from the Ministry of Rites of the Da Yue Dynasty.
The martial arts competition is not only a competition for the strength of the sect, but also a contest for national strength, and the imperial court naturally has to send people to attend.
When the personnel of Dayue arrived, they went out of the city under the leadership of Elder Ruan of the Lotus Sect and traveled to Lotus Mountain, which was hundreds of miles away.
Lotus Mountain is the territory of the Lotus Sect, with a total of seven peaks.
The southernmost Yunhan Peak was originally a retreat place for the high-level of the Lotus Sect, and it was specially set aside for people from the four countries of Dayue, Weizi, Wuche and Wushu to live temporarily.
"There are three days left on the day of the martial arts competition, everyone have a good rest, and if you have any needs in food, clothing, housing and transportation, just ask."
Elder Ruan led everyone up to Yunhan Peak, came to a mountain courtyard, and said politely.
"Elder Ruan has a heart."
Lu Chaohuan and the other two leaders thanked him in unison.
This is not the first time that the Lotus Sect has held a martial arts competition, and there are plenty of rooms in the courtyard.
The inner courtyard disciples of the three major sects, plus the head of the sect, the elders and other entourages, there were about 160 people who also lived easily.
After discussing it, several heads of the sect deliberately arranged the residence with the courtyard to the disciples who participated in the martial arts competition this time, and the rest of the disciples lived in ordinary rooms.
Zhao Lin also got a house with an independent courtyard.
He walked through the courtyard and into the house, took a quick look at the rooms, and nodded in satisfaction.
The kitchen has a stove and cooking utensils, and the water tank is filled with fresh mountain spring water, just enough to cook medicine.
Zhao Lin took out the medicinal materials from the package and first cooked a medicinal herb to assist the cultivation of Cold Ice True Qi.
After drinking it, I practiced boxing in the courtyard for a while, and in the afternoon, I boiled another serving of wind herbs and took it.
Grinding guns in battle, not fast and light, it is also good to increase a little strength.
After drinking the medicine, it was still early, and it was not dinner time, so Zhao Lin rested on the recliner in the courtyard.
After a while, an indigenous servant walked into the courtyard and lit an incense stick beside Zhao Lin.
Zhao Lin sat up vigilantly and asked, "What is this?" ”
The native servant took two steps back in horror and gestured in a wah-wah-wah-wah.
For the sake of confidentiality and security, the servants arranged by the Lotus Sect in the other courtyard were all uncivilized natives in the mountains, and they could not speak or understand the Central Plains dialect.
Zhao Lin stared at the natives for a long time, and probably understood what he meant, the incense that was lit was to repel mosquitoes.
The climate in Xiuzhao is hot and humid, although it is only March, there are already many mosquitoes in the mountains.
Zhao Lin smelled it, the aroma was clear and slightly sour, there was no feeling of dizziness and nausea, and there was nothing abnormal in the body, so he put his mind at ease.
"Thank you, you can get out."
The native servant seemed to understand and slowly retreated outside the courtyard.
Zhao Lin lay on the chair again, feeling a wave of sleepiness rushing in, so he closed his eyes in a daze.
As if sleeping, his arms hung down, unintentionally resting on the inside of the chair, and his fingertips felt some indentations that outlined and folded.
"Hey, who carved the words?"
Zhao Lin opened his eyes, sat up curiously, turned the chair over to check, and saw two lines written on the back of the chair:
Xingyun Sect Lu Yuanxiu came here for a trip and extended it for 12 years.
This session will win the championship!
"What a coincidence!"
Zhao Lin smiled, Yanhe was the name of Dayue more than a hundred years ago, and it can be deduced from this that the person who left these two lines of words was a certain senior of the Xingyun Sect, who happened to live here back then.
"This session will win the championship...... I wonder if this senior did it later? ”
As soon as the time came, Zhao Lin came to the dining hall to eat.
Because he came relatively early, there were not many people in the dining hall, and there were only a dozen disciples sitting scattered.
Zhao Lin swept around and saw Xiang Bao sitting alone in the corner, slowly eating the food served by the natives.
"The Xiang family is a martial arts family, and they know a lot about the history of the sect, maybe he has heard of Lu Yuanxiu."
Thinking like this in his heart, Zhao Lin walked to Xiang Bao's table and asked, "Brother Xiang, have you heard of Lu Yuanxiu?" ”
