Chapter 121: The First Day
The second fight is on.
Pei Ye and the young man named Feng Guangsui came up from the same side.
Even talking side by side, one with his head down and a forced smile on his face, the other looking a little embarrassed.
In fact, ninety percent of the audience has never seen the true face of the name "Pei Li", and not even many people remember these two words. Most people only vaguely heard that there was a very young boy who seemed to be able to compete with Shang Huaitong Gongzi in swordsmanship.
As for whether it is true or false, and to what extent this "one or two" has reached, everyone is just spreading falsehoods, and then adding some of their own speculations and imaginations according to their positions.
At this time, on the stands, people poked their heads and their eyes fell on the second ring, discussing and guessing which one was the "Pei Li".
Soon the answer was revealed - the two separated, the young man in dark blue military uniform stood quietly under the red curtain with "Pei Li" written on it, and the other young man in blue and white clothes continued to move to the other side.
There is no suspense in everyone's hearts about the result of this scene, Wubi always becomes more and more exciting in the next few days, and there are only two points that attract people's attention at this time: one is the young man's shot, and the other is the comparison with Shang Huaitong in the same field.
The only one in the audience who was really worried that Pei Li would lose, I am afraid that only the dozen or so children behind Master Huang leaned out one by one, and their hands were clenched tightly - being able to play the Golden Autumn Martial Arts Competition was the highest achievement of the Xiaowu Pavilion, so the one hundred and twenty-eight people on the field, of course, all of them were too powerful, and any one of Pei Li's brothers could affect their sincere worries.
"Why did Brother Pei play first?"
"It's just that I'm not ready!"
"Oh, Chen Erhu, sit down, I can't see it!"
"Look, Brother Pei has moved!"
In the ring, Pei Ye held his sword first, and performed a standard sword salute opposite Feng Guangsui, and then he drew his sword and retreated, posing for a dignified sword stand.
It was the same as Feng Guangsui's actions on the other side.
A clear bell rang was the signal for the start of the fight.
Feng Guang then jumped up first, the true qi of the eight meridians suddenly poured into his limbs, the young swordsman's body was very light, and in three steps, the person was already in front of Pei Li.
The first wave of cheers of this fight was brought by this young man who was ignored by everyone, and such a handsome and agile footwork is definitely beyond people's perception of "three lives".
What's even more rare is that every step is not only related to the lower limbs, every time the body is stretched out, the sword in Feng Guangsui's hand is also skillfully completed a charge.
And when they arrived, many people realized that what he had swept out was not a straight line, but a floating arc. With this arc, Feng Guang leaned over, and the sword light was able to strike from the young man's left flank, which was an angle that made the opponent's right hand sword force quite embarrassing.
Just as everyone applauded this neat and tricky move, the sword light shook again, and suddenly separated three sword flowers, accurately pointing at Pei Li's pharynx, heart, and lungs.
γThree-step flower deflorationγ
Within one formula, three wonderful designs, without redundancy and drag, are all combined in the final attack, which is enough to call a sentence of "good swordsmanship!" βγ
Feng Guangsui was born in Shenxian and gave up swordsmanship, not because he was taught by a more intelligent swordsman, but because this is a family learning passed down by the four generations of the Feng family. Now that his parents are withering, the Feng Family Sword House on the street has long been scarce, but Feng Guangsui has never let go of the heavy burden of revitalizing the family business.
Day after day of hard work, it is now a fast and beautiful sword!
Pei Li took a step back, carried his sword on his wrist, and made a clear sound of "ding", blocking the first sword flower.
Then he took a step back and stopped the second flower with a cross of his wrist.
Finally, he took another step back, broke his wrist, and shattered the last cold light.
Just as Feng Guangsui caught up with the accumulation of strength in three steps, Pei Ye also took three steps back to remove these three strengths, and when the last sword light was shattered, all the strength between the two disappeared silently, as if nothing had happened.
Feng Guangsui was admittedly stunned for a moment, only to realize that he could still continue to make moves.
So he immediately swung another sword style, this move still shows the skill of thousands of tempers, but it is indeed not as ingenious and beautiful as the one just now.
Because just now he thought he only had that one chance to shoot, so it was the most wonderful sword he could use.
Then five moves in a row, all of which were remarkable, although they inevitably gradually fell into mediocrity, but the young man still dismantled them one by one seriously, until a set of "withered flower sword" worth taking out of the moves was completely exhausted, and the young man in front of him shook his wrist and opened his blade, and the tip of the sword stopped three inches in front of his chest.
Feng Guang was stunned for a while, gasped twice, hugged his fists and bowed deeply, took two steps back, and abandoned his sword to admit defeat.
Compared with the first fight that just aroused the audience's howl, the competition of this fight is simply tepid, and if you only look at the performance of the word "Pei Li", it is even more boring. The boy didn't show people any exquisite swordsmanship, nor did he show any personal charm, and people's expectations for the name "Pei Li" were suddenly disappointed.
On the contrary, it was this young man named Feng Guangsui who left an impression on many people - such a young swordsman, such a solid and handsome swordsmanship!
For Pei Ye's victory, the most sustained cheers on the field came from the three rows in front of the west.
It was precisely because he was really tugging at his heart that he saw Brother Pei Li retreating in the face of the other party's attack, and when this victory was announced, the children's excitement was especially enthusiastic.
When Pei Ye returned to his seat with his sword, they were still happily celebrating this difficult victory.
"Brother Pei Li, you are now one of the sixty-four most powerful people in Bowang Prefecture!"
"One more win is the top thirty-two!"
Pei Ye sat down with a smile and complained: "Next time you shout loudly, I can't hear it below." β
Immediately, a few mouths came to his ear: "We are shouting and smoking!" β
Pei Ye bent down and covered his ears and begged for mercy.
After this fight, all the boys' battles for today are over. On the first day of the martial arts, people called it "the big wave and the sand", and after 64 fights, some people emerged, and some people had no names and no surnames. It's also a day for the audience to get to know the players, and the names written on the watch will be matched with the figures in the ring who tend to avoid offense and defense.
Pei Ye sat next to Master Huang and continued to watch the next game amid the children's questions one after another.
There were no acquaintances in the next three games, and it wasn't until the fourth game that a touch of light emerald jumped to the third ring. Pei Ye straightened up and beckoned to the children: "Look at your sister Yiqing." β
This victory was clean and clean, and her opponent was Cui Yu's young man named Cui Xiaoyan. The girl didn't save him any face, and drove him to the loser's ring with one move.
"Brother Pei, Sister Miao Qing is much more powerful than Ling!"
Zhang Junxue is also in the third ring, and next to Li Yiqing, her opponent is a swordsman from Sanxian County. After only one exchange of moves, the woman pressed the opponent's knife under the knife, and the man struggled to pump three times without twitching, so he had to admit defeat in embarrassment, and a cheerful laugh sounded on the field.
Zhang Mozhu and Yang Yan, who were in the fourth fight, also did not spend more than three moves on the enemy, especially the sharp sword skills that erupted after Yang Yan's young and restrained face left a deep impression on many people.
To Pei Li's surprise, Xiao Qiu's eldest brother, Gu Guang in the story, also stepped into the ring in the thirteenth game, as if he was also a member of this year's martial arts competition. He held the knife in one hand, or because it was inconvenient to draw it, he simply did not have a sheath, and the bright cold blade was exposed.
Some people sank forever in that dark and bleak night, but there are also people who broke through the snow and darkness and walked into this golden autumn. He was obviously still a little unaccustomed to fighting, but he still slashed the long sword of a Qijiao disciple in the eleventh move and won his first victory.
And the most unexpected competition came from the last game of the fourth ring, and the first real dark horse of this tournament was born from here.
No one has ever seen this person's appearance, and it is obvious that he is a Jianghu guest who lives in Bowang. But he is not a "comparison with the front", but is dressed in an ink robe, endorsing the four small gold characters of "Qiyun Firm", and his whole clothes are beautiful and eye-catching.
This man is in his early thirties, rarely holding a muddy iron rod, and his temperament is silent and fierce.
Qi Yun had never advertised this person, and people didn't take him too seriously. In particular, his opponent is Zheng Shou Xiaoqiu, who is a strong opponent in the four lives, and everyone's eyes are focused on this swordsman.
Xiao Qiu's unique, simple and powerful sword really made the eyes of countless people shine, and under the slashing force, the wind roared like a tiger, and the invisible air flow drew out the half moon.
However only one stick.
Xiao Qiu shattered in a sword style, and even flew off the ring with a sword. The men who were aiming for the semi-finals before the game were defeated in the first round.
This man named Zhang Zongyuan did not reveal his true strength, and with his hardness and mystery, he left the last touch of color on this martial arts field.
ββ
"Deliberately! Definitely on purpose, you know?! When everyone walked on the road and talked about this person, Zhang Dingyun was still indignant, "Qi Yun is a shameless old fox!" We used to promote Chang Yue, and they didn't reveal it at all, saying that it was good to participate in the martial arts competition at will, but it turned out that such a person was deliberately hidden! β
"Is that any of the way it stops?" Pei Ye didn't understand too much.
"Absolutely!" The little fat man shouted, "Qi Yun came from the next state to grab the territory!" Do you know how much we spend on publicity in the month before and after? Now the expectations of the whole city have been pulled up by us, and we all know that the warriors selected by Dingyun Firm are very powerful. At this time, they suddenly paid a lot of money to recruit people, and won our people with the sign of 'Qi Yun', which means that all our propaganda is to make wedding dresses for them! Isn't that stepping on our heads to make money?! β
I remember that you were not bent on enjoying life, and thought you didn't care about these things to make money."
The little fat man glared: "What kind of are you!" How could I not care about making money, spring flowers and autumn moons are costing money! β
"It's fine." Pei Ye couldn't help but comfort, "Now the nominee of your business name is not Brother Chang Yue, but our Yang Yan Gongzi - Yang Yan Gongzi will definitely win, he is 'sure to win'." β
Zhang Ding was angry, but after all, he was embarrassed to laugh again, and patted Yang Yan's shoulder apologetically.
β.β Yang Yan glanced at the two of them sullenly.
Li Yiqing was uneven on the side: "You guys are enough, you are all laughing at Yang Yan all the way." β
Only Zhang Junxue, who had just met with them, was still a little dazed.
So Pei Ye turned the young man over at her very actively, and then the woman couldn't help but hook the corners of her mouth.
Without him, the young man was dressed in royal blue silk, with two huge gold characters written on the front "Ding Yun", and "Victory" written on the back.
There was nothing wrong with the slogans and fonts, but what made them so bizarre and comic was that they were just too big.
In fact, this is not all to blame for the Dingyun firm, although they sacrificed a lot of beauty in pursuit of eye-catching, but they will not deliberately make the warrior ugly. It's just that the garment shop made a fatal mistake when rushing to make this suit - this style was originally designed as usual.
Chang Yue people are tall and big, and their clothes and gold characters are naturally equally wide, but when the warrior is replaced by Yang Yan, the original clothes are naturally unusable. Although the garment shop changed the size of the clothes, in a hurry, it forgot to change the size of the gold letter.
Yang Yan has been staying with Pei Ye and them for the past few days, so last night was the first time that people and clothes met.
Then a wear is found. Oh roar, it's over.
So the young man had to wear the clothes with the word "Yun" covering his crotch and the word "win" written on his buttocks, like a walking billboard.
The amusing scene and relaxed atmosphere clearly made the woman more comfortable, and she walked beside the group without saying a word, listening to their laughter.
It was the evening after the end of the martial arts, the lights and candles were all over the street, and a little golden light was reflected in the moon catching lake.
After Wubi, tens of thousands of people were still interested, and there must always be a place to settle, and those traders who came from hundreds of miles away always had a time to do business, so there was a lantern market that coexisted with Wubi. After a stressful day, the contestants can also have fun and relax with their relatives and friends.
The children were in a hurry to go back to play the "Finger Sword Competition" that was not finished yesterday, so Pei Li and his friends came out, and there were exactly seven boatloads of people and Zhang Dingyun that day.
Pei Ye probed and said, "Jun Xue, I don't see a lot of Zhang family members coming today?" Where did they go? β
Zhang Junxue was silent for a moment: "I don't know." β
Pei Ye walked up to her: "I'll look at it today. You don't seem to talk much over there. β
"Well, there is a contradiction." Facing the young man's inquiring gaze, the woman whispered, "What happened to my sister before." β
"Oh" Pei Ye remembered the woman's previous words - because of Zhang Junyu's matter, the Zhang family was difficult to deal with in Xu Valley, so within the Zhang family, Zhang Junxue's branch was isolated and excluded.
"In the past, the Zhang family could account for seven or eight out of ten of the places in the county, but this time only less than half was given." Zhang Junxue said, "It's indeed our fault. β
Pei Ye sighed lightly, this kind of thing can't be imagined, it is always a price that must be borne, so he smiled and said, "Uncle and aunt, are they here, come to eat together." β
"Here it is. But I won't eat with you, and after a while you go upstairs, and I'll go back to eat with my parents. Zhang Junxue said.
Pei Ye smiled and grabbed her arm: "No, it's impossible to let you go." β
Zhang Dingyun also probed: "Where are you going to go at this time, it's not crowded?" Feel free to eat some together. β
In front is the Guanliu Building, the restaurant of Zhang Dingyun's house, now thousands of people are looking for food, if it is not for the advance notice to reserve a seat, the group does not know how far to go.
Under the persuasion of everyone, Zhang Junxue finally nodded and turned her head to call her father.
However, as soon as the woman left, the girl looked at the front and said, "Look, isn't that the Zhang family?" β
Pei Ye looked at it, and at this time, everyone walked forward, and there were only two people who went against the flow of people. It is indeed the two people who appeared next to Zhang Junxue in the stands today, but they are not players, they should be the elders of the Zhang family, and they are frowning and talking about something with a calm face at this time.
Pei Li was hesitating to say hello, but when he saw the two of them looking up, he also saw them, his eyes stayed on Li Yiqing for a moment, and then he immediately turned away, and then bypassed them far away.
"They eat fast."
"Let's enjoy the scenery, they only came to Catch Moon Lake, where can there be any food." Zhang Dingyun said.
"Aren't you going to take us over there too? What do we eat if we don't eat, catch fish from the lake? β
Zhang Dingyun rolled his eyes and pointed: "You can't see such a big building?" We're going upstairs, and they're coming from the back. β
"Oh." Pei Ye shut up. Zhang Dingyun said to eat casually, he thought it was a small dilapidated building, but he didn't expect it to be a big one - people invite themselves to eat in this kind of place, so of course everything is right.
