Volume 1, The Breath of Eating Cattle Chapter 72, Taomu Lane, Cao's Family.
Outside the town of Baiko,
Li Qingze opened his eyes, lowered his head and saw a little redness on his chest, which was the wound that had just been pierced by the sword qi Bai Hong.
The young Confucian smiled silently, and then he seemed to feel something, raised his head and looked at the sky in the distance of the night sky, and said in his heart, is it coming?
Just as he looked up at the night sky, a sword qi white rainbow that pierced the sky suddenly roared, and everywhere he passed, the clouds were all stirred up, and they all retreated to avoid its edge for a while.
And the target of that sword qi white rainbow falling was obviously the young Confucian sitting at the gate of the town.
Li Qingze looked at the sword qi Bai Hong that was getting closer and closer, shook his head and laughed, he had never seen such an unreasonable person, he had never seen such an unreasonable person, it was the first time he had seen such a "short guard".
"Boom!"
Just when that sword qi Bai Hong came with a whistling sound, in the mid-air where it was going, a figure appeared to block its way, it was Li Changge with a solemn expression.
I saw that this green-shirted ranger suddenly grasped the hilt of the sword behind his waist, and the sword was unsheathed for an inch, and in an instant, in front of that sword qi Bai Hong, there were several majestic mountain phantoms sitting down, as if they wanted to stop this sword qi Bai Hong and prevent it from taking a step forward.
It's a pity that after these mountain phantoms were blocked, they were slashed by that sword qi white rainbow in less than a moment, and they were split into two and dissipated.
Seeing this scene, Li Changge, who was standing in the sky, suddenly stepped forward, and an enchantment formed by the scabbard behind his waist instantly blocked the sword qi Bai Hong, as soon as this green-shirted ranger came into contact with the white rainbow, blood flowed from the corners of his mouth instantly, but his eyes stared at the sword qi Bai Hong, and he didn't retreat.
"Humph!"
At this moment, in the white rainbow of the fierce sword qi that was blocked, there seemed to be a woman's cold snort coming from the sky.
"Crackleβ"
Immediately after, a slight cracking sound sounded in Li Changge's ears, and the green-shirted ranger glanced sideways at his waist, only to see that the scabbard of the long sword behind his waist began to crack, and then spread like a spider's web.
Finally, in his narrowed pupils, the scabbard quietly shattered, revealing a quaint four-foot-long sword.
What is surprising is that the long sword behind Changge's waist has never been sharpened, and under this moonlight, it is more like a long ruler that does not slip into autumn, and it is completely not as sharp as a long sword should be.
This bladeless long sword is called "Non-Attack", which was given to the Tsing Yi Ranger by the ancestor of his own family in the past, which shows how much the ancestor has high hopes for him.
The original intention was to hope that this green-shirted ranger could do it, prosper the world, remove the harm of the world, and love each other.
Just in this moment, the sword qi Bai Hong had already passed over the green-shirted ranger, and the incomparably powerful sword qi fell on the young Confucian man's head like a rainbow, and silently cut off a few strands of hair on his head.
After Li Qingze fell to the figure, the green-shirted ranger who wanted to walk this way waved his hand, signaling that he didn't need to act rashly.
Seeing this scene, Li Changge nodded solemnly, his right hand kept holding the hilt of the long sword behind his waist, and his whole body was tense and did not dare to relax in the slightest.
Li Qingze looked at the sword qi Bai Hong in front of him, which was only a little away from his eyebrows, and laughed softly, "Waiting for you." β
Hearing this, the sword qi Bai Hong, which kept spinning in front of his eyebrows but did not fall for a long time, had a touch that was difficult to see, and after a vague slender figure appeared, he said coldly to the young Confucian scholar, "Don't think that if you are that person's disciple, I won't dare to kill you!"
Li Qingze smiled helplessly, "Thank you for not killing." β
"Hmph. β
The slender figure snorted coldly again, and the sword qi on his eyebrows, Bai Hong, dissipated in an instant, as if nothing had happened just now.
"Whew"
Li Changge, who was in the distance, breathed a sigh of relief, and the hand that had been holding the hilt of the sword was quietly put down, and the palm was already sweating unconsciously.
The two of them knew that there were only a handful of people in heaven and earth who could "ask the sword" thousands of miles away like this.
ββ
At the same time, the peach wood lane in Baiju Town,
There is a rich and noble family surnamed Cao on this alley, and it is said that his people have the right to speak in the temples of the Han Dynasty, and even the military department and household department are among them.
It's just strange that those people surnamed Cao, who were invincible in the past, were all lying in the courtyard at this time, all looking frightened and trembling.
They secretly raised their heads and looked into the lobby inside, their eyes filled with excitement and awe. And in it, there are two figures, which are said to be the ancestors of their own families.
"Roar!"
At this moment, a low roar sounded in the ears of the Cao family in the courtyard, so frightened that they hurriedly knocked on the ground with their heads, and never dared to raise their heads again.
And the middle-aged man who led the kneeling on the ground was the head of the Cao family, named Cao Xiu, one of the few four surnames in this Taomu Lane.
This middle-aged man in brocade clothes was much more indifferent than the panicked Cao family people behind him, but the cold sweat soaked behind his back already explained everything.
On his left hand side was a handsome young man with a pale face, the second son of the Cao family, named Cao Yuan, at this time, the rich boy who was hollowed out by wine was palpitating, and the fact that tonight happened made him unbelievable.
And he should have been happy, even ecstatic, but now he had only infinite fear in his heart.
Because this second son likes not to return at night on weekdays, lingering in those places with railings, and only caring about drunk life and dreams every day, everyone knows in private that this second son of the Cao family is just a wine bag and rice bag.
Today, Cao Yuan rarely goes back home, who would have thought that he would be told by his father that he would be the next heir of the family in the future.
Hearing this, Cao Yuan was immediately confused, isn't the heir of the head of the family the eldest brother of his own family?
Just when he saw a corpse that was carried away by his subordinates, his feet were instantly frightened, isn't this the eldest brother?!!
Seeing this scene, Cao Yuan hurriedly went to ask his father, who would have thought that not only would his father be scolded angrily, but also warned him not to mention this matter in the future!
After knocking on those subordinates, the second son of the Cao family knew.
The unruly eldest brother of his own family, after seeing the two old ancestors who came to "recognize his relatives", looked arrogant, but he was twisted by the young man who seemed to be smiling across the sword, and the father who usually looked at no one dared to even have the slightest anger.
At this time, in the main hall of the Cao family,
A middle-aged man wearing a jade robe and a white jade belt around his waist sat on the chair where only the heads of the Cao family could sit, and looked at the people kneeling outside the door with a smile.
Sitting next to him was a young man in a long robe with a lazy expression, this seemingly casual young man Hao Ran was Cao Xu, who had attacked the Haisheng Dynasty with the Han Dynasty before.
The middle-aged man stretched out his hand and pulled off the white jade belt, then turned his head sideways and smiled at Cao Xu, "You little bastard, don't always be a master and a low eye, and accumulate military merits for Lao Tzu in the Han Dynasty." β
Hearing this, Cao Xuan sneered, "If I'm a little bastard, aren't you an old bastard?!"
The middle-aged man laughed and said, "Reasonable, reasonable!"
When the words fell, I saw him stretch out his hand to recall the patterned tiger outside the door, the tiger with a ghostly light in his eyes saw the master's gesture, and walked into the main hall slowly, it walked to the side of the chair, and rubbed the middle-aged man's leg with its head obediently, but was kicked away by the middle-aged man.
was kicked away by his master, and the tiger was not angry, but only whined in dissatisfaction, but did not roar at those people like Fang had just done.
Seeing this scene, the middle-aged man sitting on a chair in a jade brocade robe smiled and scolded at his mount, "Get out of the way! Look at your whiny face, find a female cub, Lao Tzu is not interested in you!"
After a while, he reached out and picked up the teacup on the table, blew it slowly, drank it, and put down the teacup, then smiled and smiled at the head of the Cao family kneeling outside the door, "Yes, the old man has not been in Taomu Lane for many years, and now the Cao family is so prosperous, thank you." β
"Puffβ"
Hearing this, Cao Xiu felt terrified, hurriedly knocked his head on the ground, and said excitedly, "Thank you for your appreciation!" β
When the words fell, who would have thought that the middle-aged man raised his eyebrows and smiled even more happily, "Oh? How can He De? Listen to what you mean, it's me Cao Wuxian who has no eyes and no beads?"
Cao Xiu was horrified in his heart, and hurriedly defended, "No... Cao Xiu should be damned!Please forgive the ancestor!!"
Hearing this, the middle-aged man, that is, Cao Wuxian, saw him wave his hand impatiently and scolded with a smile, "Okay, okay! It's really boring, I can't afford to make a joke." β
"Whew-"
Cao Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, his ancestor's temperament was really inscrutable, and his moodiness made people tremble.
After hesitating for a moment, the head of the Cao family asked out loud, "Ancestor, now that you are back, are you ......?"
Before he finished speaking, Cao Wushu waved his hand to interrupt his words, and said with a smile, "Be your head of the family with peace of mind, the old man is not that interested in these trivial things, okay, let's go down!"
Cao Xiu hurriedly got up but still didn't dare to raise his head, and then he respectfully bent down and took a few steps back, then got up and turned around, and shouted at the people of the Cao family behind him, "It's all scattered for me!!
"Yes!"
Hearing this, those people from the Cao family who didn't know why hurriedly responded, and then dispersed in a hurry, not daring to stop here for half a step.
After the head of the Cao family retreated from everyone, he turned around and bent down again and bowed his hand to the middle-aged man respectfully, "Ancestor, Cao Xiu retires!"
Seeing that Cao Wuxian nodded, he walked to the other side, and his figure disappeared into the dark.
After everyone left, Cao Wuxian smiled and nodded in praise, "Knowing how to advance and retreat, no wonder the Cao family can make a career and is a talent." β
At this moment, Cao Xu, who had been sitting next to him and had been watching coldly, sneered, "Rare, I thought you were only interested in those women who don't wear clothes." β
When Cao Wuxian heard this, he was immediately laughed angrily, turned his head to the sword-crossing young man and scolded with a smile, "You little bastard, I am also your grandfather, do you know how to respect your elders?"
Hearing this, the cross-sword young man turned a deaf ear, and he couldn't be more familiar with his "grandfather".
In the past, in this Baiju Town, a person from the Cao family who walked out of the peach wood alley and went to another place to start a sect alone, only in the archives of the Han Dynasty recorded this little-known secret.
And this person is the first ancestor of the Cao family in Taomu Lane, that is, Cao Wuxian, this ancestor of the Cao family can be regarded as "notorious" in the mountains of the Xianjia everywhere.
Because he was extremely lustful and had a different taste, he had no interest in those young women at all, but only those young women, especially those who had just been married.
The ancestor of the Cao family, who made his fortune in the peach alley in the town, did not do much of those things to pry the corners of the wall, and what was puzzling was that those fairies on the mountain and the women under the mountain were all obedient after the spring breeze with him, as if they were enchanted.
Therefore, there have also been people from the top of the Xianjia Mountain, who tried to murder Cao Wuxian several times, but they all returned in vain, but they were run away by him again and again, and even some people who were not strong were killed by him.
Can't catch it, can't kill it, people hate him so much, I wish God would open his eyes and kill this person who killed a thousand knives!
In the words of this ancestor of the Cao family, that is, no matter where she is, as long as she walks under the old man's crotch once, she will definitely have no return!
And the most important thing that those immortal mountains think is that this person is extremely arrogant, this ancestor of the Cao family once said that he was not ashamed, pointed to the sky and laughed, "Even those fairies in the sky who do not eat the fireworks of the world and are high up, Lao Tzu dares to ask them to take off their clothes and come down to earth!"
This time, the ancestor of the Cao family, who opened a sect outside, returned to Taomu Lane in Baiju Town, first, to return to his hometown, and secondly, for his own "little bastard", he has pressed all his net worth in the Han Dynasty, so he deliberately placed Cao Xu in the border army of the Han Dynasty, hoping that he could accumulate military merits in the army.
