Volume 1 The Rise of the Western Regions Chapter 102 "Enemies" Meet

Hearing Zhao Rang admit that he was Zhao Rang, this person's expression moved quietly, and his slight envy was mixed with disdain. There is an indescribable strangeness that these two completely opposite and diametrically opposed expressions appear on the same face at the same time. But it has reappeared, and on closer inspection, it is not too discordant, which is even more strange.

It's easy to disdain a person.

Especially young people, they say that they don't fight with anyone, and they don't even disdain to fight with anyone, but in fact, they look down on everyone in their hearts, and they want to compete with everyone and divide them into others.

But envy is hard to judge.

If a person envies another person, he must know something about him. Only in this way can we compare, find places that we can't reach, and generate envy.

But Zhao Rang was very sure that he had never met the person in front of him, and he didn't know each other. Since you don't know each other, where does this envy come from?

The other party seemed to see that Zhao Rang was puzzled, and for some reason, the envy on his face was even better.

After a moment of silence, the man retracted his expression slightly, and said:

"My name is Li Yanyun."

Zhao Rang searched for the name again in his mind, making sure that he had not heard it. But to be on the safe side, he asked again:

"Swallow's Swallow?"

Li Yanyun shook his head and replied:

"The wild goose of the wild goose."

Zhao Rang felt that this name had a bit of artistic conception and bearing, and it should also be a child of the family. Although in my impression, there is no family knife surnamed Li in the north of Dawei, but not knowing it does not mean that it does not exist. offended a Zheng family, Zhao Rang already felt that he was a little reckless, not to mention that he didn't have a knife now, and he didn't want to provoke anger with this Li Yanyun, so he generously arched his hand and said:

"It turned out to be Li Gongzi! Look up for a long time, look up for a long time! ”

Li Yanyun's expression suddenly lost any envy, and was replaced by disgust.

"Are you all so hypocritical?"

Zhao Rang was speechless when he said this...... He was indeed polite just now. After all, I haven't even heard of the name Li Yanyun, so how can I talk about long-term admiration?

However, ordinary people who know etiquette can hear that this is polite, or they don't dare to say it modestly, no matter how bad it is, two sentences of "where, where" are enough to deal with, but this Li Yanyun opened the lid nakedly and left no room for Zhao Rang, which made him very embarrassed when he was used to this.

"What, am I not right? All the reactions of your whole body tell me that you don't know me, but you pretend to say something It turns out that I look up for a long time, as if my name is like thunder to you! ”

"It's disgusting that you're also a knife user!"

No matter how well cultivated a person is, if he is pickled like this for no reason, he must have broken his Dao heart. Not to mention that Zhao Rang didn't have a good temper in the first place.

I was already irritable because I got lost and separated from my friends, but such a fairy with a knife came out again! He greeted him politely, but he insisted on rushing himself.

The clay figure also has three points of earthiness, Zhao Rang immediately went back, and said:

"When we meet in Pingshui, I see that you should also be a great man, so I was a little polite. Don't be ignorant! ”

Li Yanyun grinned and replied:

"You are so bad, I just don't know!"

Zhao Rang clenched his fists, already trying his best to restrain himself, and suddenly heard Li Yanyun continue:

"As a swordsman, if you speak hypocritically, you might as well go to the academy to be a sour Confucian! I used to think that someone like you was impersonating me, maybe there was something unspeakable. If you can talk about it, it's nothing. But as soon as we met, I found that you were able to do this! ”

Zhao Rang heard it strangely and asked suspiciously:

"When did I impersonate you?"

Li Yanyun sneered and did not answer.

Zhao Rang's mind suddenly turned white, and he looked at the black knife without a scabbard in his hand again, and suddenly understood something.

"You are the apprentice of Northern Sword Merchant Eleven?"

In Yangguan Ye Sanniang's inn, Zhao Rang swung his knife and beheaded people, cut Zheng Gongzi, and then lost the scabbard. After receiving the dart work that Ye Sanniang gave him to pull the string, he was mistaken for Shang Shiyi's apprentice on the road, precisely because the knife he used did not have a scabbard.

At that time, Zhao Rangdu knew that the only apprentice of the Northern Sword King Shang Eleven had already learned to become a teacher and began to travel the rivers and lakes.

Shang Shiyi himself used a knife without a scabbard, so his apprentice should be the same.

No one knew what style and color of knife Shang Shiyi and his apprentice used. Because before that, his apprentice in the rivers and lakes had never made a name for himself. And those who have seen Shang Shiyi's knife die under his self-created "Knife Eleven Style".

And Shang Shiyi is not a child of a family, and no one knows where he is taught, as if he was born and raised, he suddenly appeared. As soon as he made a move, he killed the water bandits who had been entrenched on the banks of the Taishang River for many years - the water and land chain of twelve villages of the Sihai Youlong Gang, and its gang leader "Hebo" was cut off limbs, ears and noses were cut off, and eyes were gouged out.

single-handedly destroyed the entire gang, and even caused a generation of heroes to die tragically, which immediately shocked the world. Wherever there are rivers and lakes, no one is talking about this matter. Fortunately, the Four Seas Dragon Gang is really not a decent family, and the fishermen on both sides of the Taishang River are all oppressed by it. After learning that it was destroyed, they all clapped their hands and applauded, and even raised money to build a shrine for Shang Shiyi, worshipping every day, and the incense was endless.

It was after this time that it was rumored that Shang Eleven adopted as a disciple an orphan whose parents were bullied to death by the Dragon Gang of the Four Seas, and this time it was fifteen years.

In the past fifteen years, Shang Shiyi has made a limited number of swords, but he has not killed hard, and his methods are not as cruel as they were at the beginning. The people who died under his hands were all traitors and evildoers, and their martial arts cultivation was not lower than the fourth grade. The "Hebo" at the beginning is a great master of the three-rank martial arts who has been on the road for a long time.

The scholar who has no door and no faction can achieve such cultivation with a knife, and the name of "Sword King" has spread far and wide, becoming more and more loud, and the orphan he adopted has become a disciple of the Sword King.

However, Shang Shiyi protected his apprentice very well, and even his name was never known to outsiders. Now standing in front of him in a good manner, Zhao Rang feels very honored, and at the same time a little guilty......

Although the incident in Yangguan was not intentional, it was caused by himself after all, which brought trouble to Li Yanyun. In the final analysis, it is understandable that people are counted on their own heads, and they have to admit it!

"Brother Li, the matter was in a hurry at that time, and the scabbard was indeed lost for some reason, not that I deliberately blamed it! I, Zhao Rang, can't I compensate you here! ”

Zhao Rang's words were sincere and sincere, but Li Yanyun didn't appreciate it at all.

Such a stubborn and paranoid person, once he recognizes what kind of person the other person is, it is difficult to change. Listening to his ears just now, these words made him even more contemptuous of Zhao Rang...... I feel that this person is really hypocritical to the bones, hopeless!

"Yun'er, who are you talking to?"

A majestic voice sounded, and it reverberated in all directions on Songtao Mountain, where the sound could not be transmitted at all.

"Master, I've found someone pretending to be me! Just him, Zhao Rang! ”

As soon as Li Yanyun's words fell, an old man wearing a sackcloth and stepping on mango shoes, with crane hair and a childish face, seemed to appear out of nowhere.

"Yun'er, how did the teacher teach you? Zhao Gongzi has already apologized to you just now, why are you still so aggressive? ”

Li Yanyun was obviously a little afraid of the old man in front of him, and didn't dare to speak up, but he still muttered in a low voice and said:

He didn't apologize...... It's all ......."

Before he could finish speaking, a black light suddenly fell on top of his head, and in an instant, it retracted into the old man's sleeve.

Such a sword technique like the wind, Zhao Rang felt that it was comparable to his father's full blow, but this old man was so relaxed and casual, as if he was in a dream, real and illusory.

In addition to being surprised, Zhao Rang reacted and Li Yanyun called this old man a master, then he should be the Northern Sword King, Shang Eleven!

"Boy Zhao Rang, I've seen the Sword King!"

The old man waved his hand and smiled:

"Whatever is a king or not, they are all falsely spreading. Zhao Gongzi, do you look at the little old man like this, do you deserve the word 'king'? ”

Zhao Rang didn't expect this long-famous and extremely decent predecessor to be so humble, and he couldn't help but respect it even more, and said:

"The seniors are humble!"

Shang Shiyi saw that Zhao Rangli was thoughtful, and he didn't have the frivolity of the children of the family, so he couldn't help but look up a lot.

I think that when he first debuted, he was also a teenager and strong-blooded, and he always looked down on these so-called children of the family. Now, after wandering in the long river of time, the sharpness has gradually returned to its original heart, and the anger is not obvious. In the face of Zhao Rang, these little characters are all generous and peaceful.

"Zhao Gongzi, don't blame, I have no experience in the world, so I owe a lot of things to others. It's also strange to say that the little old man took him as an apprentice, and his temperament at this time was the same, so it was passed on to him. ”

Then the conversation changed and he asked:

"But Zhao Gongzi, as the son of the Zhao family, why did he come to the Western Regions, it hasn't been peaceful here recently!"

Zhao Rangzi doesn't know how to say his own purpose, and politely uses the word "travel" to perfunctory the past. It doesn't matter if Shang Shiyi believes it or not, isn't his apprentice the same anyway? What's more, with his cultivation as his seniority, he must not ask Zhao Rang for this.

"Oh, I see, that's the same purpose as Yun'er. Zhao Gongzi wants to cross Songtao Mountain and go to the other three countries of the Four Kingdoms? ”

Zhao Rang replied respectfully:

"Exactly. But the boy heard that there was a great knife maker on the mountain, and the knife in the boy's hand was just lacking, so he wanted to look for it to see if he was lucky enough to come across it, and asked for a good knife! ”

Without waiting for Shang Shiyi to speak, Li Yanyun laughed first. But when he was glared at by his master, he immediately stopped it, lowered his head, and stood quietly.

"Haha, but an old cook told Zhao Gongzi?"

Zhao Rang was shocked and said:

"Exactly! Seniors know this swordsmith? ”

Shang Shiyi smiled, smiling but not speaking.

Zhao Rang said in disbelief:

"Could it be that the predecessors are ......?"
