Chapter Forty-Nine: Go Out First
Zhou Heng's perception is very keen, especially after insight +1.
Even when he was concentrating on cultivating internal strength, as long as there was something around him, he could immediately detect it.
Right now, someone is standing on the roof of their house.
However, after Zhou Heng's low shout just now, no one responded, and no follow-up voice came.
"Is it a thief?" he frowned slightly, subconsciously stuffed the silver ticket in his arms again, and said secretly: "Could it be that I was seen when I was exchanging gold in the gold shop before?"
"Someone is going to steal my gold?!"
Wanting to be here, Zhou Heng immediately became angry, picked up the steel knife beside the bed, rushed out of the door, and shouted: "Whoever is here, come out immediately!"
"Your landlord is here! Zhou Heng, don't you sleep??" The landlord's angry shout suddenly came from the main room, and he warned: "This is your last chance, and next time, the old lady will raise your rent! Go to sleep!"
Hearing this, Zhou Heng suddenly shuddered.
A little flustered.
However, he did not go back directly, but looked at the wall not far away.
There stood a black-clad masked man, sword in hand, looking down on him from above.
"Who are you?" Zhou Heng frowned.
Zheng!!
The sword roared.
The masked man didn't say a word, and directly killed Zhou Heng with a sword.
The sword light pierced the night sky and took Zhou Heng's head directly.
While!
The swords struck, and the masked man's sword was directly blocked by Zhou Heng with a knife.
"Huh?"
The masked man snorted lightly, obviously surprised that Zhou Heng was able to take his sudden sword.
At this time, Zhou Heng's heart was even more shocked.
Because while parrying the attack of the black-clothed masked man, he received a system prompt.
"Kong Chengshun is using the martial arts "Thirty-Seven Paths Night Shadow Sword Technique" [Nine Pins] to attack you, and you successfully parry, with a proficiency of +0.2. ”
This is the true biography of the Changxing Sect who came to Huangtong Mansion City to recruit disciples from the outer sect that Lin Cang said.
The ninety-ninth "Luoxia Flying Sword" Kong Chengshun on the list!
"Isn't he here tomorrow?"
Zhou Heng was shocked in his heart, and he couldn't understand why this person wanted to attack him, and he always felt that the other party's sword seemed to contain other strange aura.
Zheng!!
At this time, another sword attacked, Zhou Heng once again parried perfectly, and followed the opponent's sword momentum, so that the blade turned, and immediately turned defense into attack, slashed out, and slashed down!
Kong Chengshun didn't seem to expect that Zhou Heng's sword technique would have such a change, and the sword technique in his hand stagnated for a moment, revealing a trace of imperceptible flaws.
But Zhou Heng, who has insight +1, how could he not see this flaw, and immediately take advantage of the weakness to attack!
So, under the moonlight, Zhou Heng's blade was stained with a trace of blood.
Although Kong Chengshun dodged at the last moment, the back of his hand was still cut through the skin by Zhou Heng's knife.
This knife made him completely understand Zhou Heng's knife skill level.
"Humph!"
He snorted coldly, stopped fighting with Zhou Heng, flew back, quickly opened the distance, jumped over, jumped over the houses, and fled into the distance while the night was dark.
Zhou Heng did not continue the pursuit.
On the one hand, the opponent is skillful, even if he has the attribute of agility +1, he may not be able to catch up with only the eight steps of the flying grass of the ninth grade.
On the other hand, he was a little afraid of the strange aura he felt when he just fought.
"Ghost spirit? No, it's plausible, and when we just fought, my special attack on the Yin Spirit didn't work, so it seems that he hasn't been possessed by a ghost yet...... But what is that breath?"
......
The black-clad and masked Kong Chengshun sped through the night.
He was going back to the carriage where he was still on the road.
Tomorrow, as Kong Chengshun, he will come to the city of Huangtong Mansion for the first time.
Kong Chengshun covered the blood marks on the back of his right hand, and his face hidden under the mask became gloomy.
This blood mark is not even an injury, even if it is completely ignored, it can be recovered in three or two days.
But the meaning of this blood mark made him unable to ignore it.
"Sword Technique Transformation Realm, he actually practiced such a crude martial art as the Twelve Roads Mountain Splitting Knife Technique to the Transformation Realm!" Kong Chengshun felt unbelievable as soon as he thought of Zhou Heng's knife movement just now.
A nine-grade sword technique, it was actually practiced to this level by that guy!
How old is he!?
Under normal circumstances, a martial artist cultivates a martial art to the level of perfection, and basically even if he reaches the end of this martial art, he can hardly move forward.
Only by being extremely proficient in a martial art, spending countless energy, and concentrating on cultivation can it be possible to break through the bottleneck, surpass the original level of perfection, and reach the so-called "transformation realm".
Success in the realm is basically equivalent to improving the power of martial arts by one grade!
But who would spend so much energy on a nine-rank martial art?
It takes an extremely long time to go from consummation to transformation, ranging from two or three years to five or six years, or even longer, and may be limited by talent and never be able to practice transformation.
But this Zhou Heng has only been practicing martial arts for two years in total!
"Genius, really genius. ”
Kong Chengshun's eyes narrowed slightly, and he sneered: "But the Changxing faction doesn't need a genius now, at least not before the master gets the position of head!"
Randomly, he shook the long sword in his hand.
This ordinary-looking long sword immediately turned into an ancient sword with a simple shape and rust.
Kong Chengshun's eyes were full of admiration when he looked at this ancient sword, and said secretly: "It's really thanks to the seniors, if it weren't for the seniors asking me to test this kid, I'm afraid I would really want to recruit him into the Changxing faction."
"With such a genius, the growth rate must be rapid, which will increase the variables for the master's competition for the position of the head of the family...... Thankfully, fortunately. ”
Airplanes!
The ancient sword trembled slightly, glowing with a faint light, as if in response to Kong Chengshun's mood.
Kong Chengshun listened attentively, his face changed slightly, and he said in amazement: "Do you want to be like this? Such a genius, it's not good to take the liberty of resentment." ”
The glimmer on the ancient sword flickered again.
Kong Chengshun hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, I know, senior." ”
......
Early the next morning.
Kong Chengshun's carriage slowly drove into the gate of Huangtong Mansion City.
Tongchang Martial Arts Hall, Changsheng Martial Arts Hall, Longxing Martial Arts Hall, the three martial arts hall masters under the Changxing faction all came to greet them, accompanied by a group of Jiupin teachings.
Zhou Heng didn't come, he wanted to concentrate on martial arts.
Huang Jingfu, Hong Kang, and Lei Xiuyuan, as the owners of the museum, are standing at the forefront.
Behind it is a group of teachings.
Behind the instructors, there were many people who came to see the excitement.
A large part of them came purely to see Kong Chengshun, wanting to see what the young handsome man who can be on the list looks like.
Although Kong Chengshun is only the ninety-ninth on the list, being on the list means that his strength surpasses most of his generation.
Don't say it's ninety-nine, even if it's a hundred, that's a real record.
will become a popular figure that countless people pay attention to.
"Wow! Is this the best man!
"It's like giving birth to him!"
"Luoxia Flying Sword!Luoxia Flying Sword!!"
The crowd cheered incessantly, especially the young girls.
However, some girls who had watched Zhou Heng and Sun Zhengping compete secretly shook their heads, feeling that this Luoxia Flying Sword was not as handsome as Zhou Heng.
As for strength?
Is it important to look good at strength?
......
Passing through this piece of lively crowd.
Huang Jingfu, Hong Kang, Lei Xiuyuan and a group of teachers welcomed Kong Chengshun into the Buwu Division.
At this time, Tian Chong, the chief secretary of Buwu, had already set up a banquet here.
Kong Chengshun took a short break and then sat down.
But even at the banquet, he still held the beloved long sword and didn't leave him for a moment.
Seeing this, Huang Jingfu complimented: "As the saying goes, 'the sword of the moon stick is a gun for a lifetime, and the sword is hidden with you', but there are really few people who can really do it. ”
"Yes, yes!" Hong Kang also nodded and agreed: "Kong Gongzi has the qualifications of a grandmaster at a glance!"
The five grades of martial arts can be called a grandmaster.
Lei Xiuyuan is obviously not very suitable for this kind of scene, but the two pavilion owners are so touted, and he can't be too unsociable.
It's just that Huang Jingfu and Hong Kang have already said almost what they can boast about.
What other tricks could there be?
So he thought about it for a while, and said: "Gongzi Kong has a bright future, and in the future, this sword will be famous all over the world because of Gongzi's reputation, it is really a blessing." ”
But as soon as these words came out, Lei Xiuyuan couldn't help but shiver, only to feel a chill suddenly appear in the air around him.
What's going on?
Am I saying the wrong thing?
Impossible.
Lei Xiuyuan was puzzled.
Kong Chengshun glanced at him and said lightly: "We have to discuss the rules for testing Zhou Heng tomorrow now." Lei Pavilion Master, you should avoid suspicion and go out first. ”
