Liu Shi said coldly: "Xiao Wang Xue, your skills have really improved, and I am convinced." Thank you for your mercy today, I promise you that I will no longer be embarrassed by Qili City. "Turn around and go. Wang Xue hurriedly said: "Wait, you tell me, I lost to you at the last Zhenwu Conference, what about you, who are you defeated?" Liu Shi said: "There is a man named Li Hao in Habamen, and he is ashamed to say that he is just a twenty-year-old boy, and his skills are indeed better than mine." ”

When Wang Xue heard the word "Li Hao", her heart sank, and she said casually: "You actually lost at the hands of Li Hao?" I thought that I had always thought that my skills were above Li Hao in the past, but now that I think about it, it may not be true. Liu Shi didn't know that Wang Xue and Li Hao had already known each other, and said: "At that time, in the ring, Li Hao was already my fourth opponent, I was physically exhausted, and I lost to him, so what, when it comes to real skills, he may not be stronger than me." After speaking, Xiang Wang Xue hugged his fist and turned to go down the mountain.

Wang Xue looked at Liu Shi's figure and thought: "Your kung fu is actually extremely shallow, and the reason why you can win me in the Zhenwu Conference is all because of your innate divine power." It is common for you to lose Li Hao due to lack of physical strength, if you had lost your strength earlier, maybe I could have won you in that Zhenwu Conference, so Li Hao's skills may not be stronger than me, and I have to try his true skills in the next Zhenwu Conference. ”

Du Yang said: "It's not early, let's go down the mountain, take care of our spirits, and we will attack the main peak of the Snow Mountain in a few days." ”

The three of them descended the mountain and returned. That night, Dong Peng set up a banquet to invite Wang Xue, deputy city lord, Lei Gu, Du Yang and others, everyone talked about the battle during the day, and they all said that there was no danger, Du Dong and the two thanked Wang Xue for helping to beat Liu Shi away, and kept boasting about Wang Xue's martial arts during the banquet, which inevitably had some nonsense and boasting. The deputy city lord sat in the chief position, Wang Xue defeated Du Yang and Dong Peng in front of him, and helped him repel the strong enemy on the north peak of the Snow Mountain, he was no longer as disrespectful to Wang Xue as before, and he only smiled and said nothing when he heard people boast about Wang Xue's martial arts.

After the three rounds of wine, everyone was happy, Duyang Dong Peng's words gradually stopped, and the deputy city lord saluted Wang Xue with a bowl of wine and said: "Wang Xue, your kung fu is good, we will attack the main peak in a few days, and we will be indispensable for your help." Wang Xue didn't like to drink, poured a cup of tea and drank it, and said: "The vice president of the city doesn't need to be polite, I promised Yaoyao that I would snatch the snow mountain back, my kung fu is mediocre, but I also know that I will do what I say." The deputy city lord said: "The bandits on the main peak are extremely vicious, but they are not as big as Liu Shi on the north peak, you can't be too big." Wang Xue responded: "Yes." He thought to himself: "No matter how fierce the bandits on the main peak are, are they still stronger than butterflies, spiders, worms, and Boshanyuan?"

The deputy city lord said: "When he attacks the main peak of the snow mountain one day, my city lord senior brother will personally lead people to go, he is not sure of defeating the spirit and evil, so he takes all the martial artists to practice on the snowy mountain road inside and outside the mountain west of the city. He heard that you are good at kung fu, and wants to personally learn your boxing skills and ground grappling skills, so you can go to the west of the city tomorrow to find him. ”

Wang Xue was drinking a cup of tea, suddenly heard him say this, his heart was terrified, a sip of tea almost spewed out, the tea choked in his throat, he couldn't help coughing loudly, and thought: "I see that I am indeed willing to help each other in the old relationship with Yaoyao and Grandpa Lei, how can I have any other intentions? Lord Deputy City Lord, Wang Xue helped us recapture the North Peak today, Master Du and I have seen it with our own eyes, can't you still treat Wang Xue as your own at this moment?"

The deputy city lord didn't laugh angrily, and said: "Master Dong doesn't have to be angry, my city lord senior brother heard that Wang Xue and her little girl can beat you and Master Du, and I admire her so much, so I want to see her." He turned his head to Wang Xue and said, "My senior brother just wants to learn martial arts with you, and has no other intentions, so don't worry about it." ”

Lei Gu said straight to the point: "What a big deal is to attack the main peak, how can you ask a little girl who has nothing to do with it? Not to mention that she is a weak girl, can she really take on this great responsibility? Although the city lord can trust her, he does not believe in her martial arts, so he wants to give her a try to see how good her skills are. Lord Deputy City Lord, Lao Lei, I guessed right?" The Deputy City Lord sighed: "Among the bandits on the main peak, there are many experts in the rivers and lakes with superb internal strength, and the city lord does this because he wants to know himself and his opponent and win all battles. These words admit what Lei thinks.

When Wang Xue heard this, her mood was calm, and she thought: "Before we go into battle to kill the enemy, we will learn from each other first, and understand the number of martial artists and the depth of each other's skills. So he said, "That's very good, I also want to ask the lord of the castle about his kung fu." ”

After the banquet was over, Wang Xue returned to her residence, went up the tree and picked a few persimmons, and thought while eating: "What kind of person is this city lord, I think he is not weak in martial arts, I have to ask Grandpa Lei about it." I happened to see Lei Gu carrying a broom out to clear the snow, so he asked: "Grandpa Lei, do you know the origin of the name of this city lord?" Lei Gu was stunned, and then asked with a smile: "Didn't you come three years ago, with you so good at martial arts, you don't know who the city lord is?" Wang Xue said: "At that time, my mother told me, she said that the city lord was a great hero, and he had teamed up with three good men to kill the Ghost Head Sect. My mother said that such a great man would not be willing to meet us orphans and widows, so we did not dare to visit him three years ago, and my mother did not even mention his name to me. Lei Gu smiled and said: "Although the city lord has a good reputation, in fact, he is very approachable, although you and your mother are women, they are no less than any high-rollers, the city lord will like you two very much, how can he not want to meet?" Wang Xue heard that the city lord was approachable and easy to talk to, and the original three points of concern in his heart were all eliminated, and said: "But I don't know the name of this city lord?" Lei Gu said: "His name is Wan Jiabu." ”

Wang Xue frowned slightly, she had faintly heard the name Wan Jiabu, but she didn't know what great things he had done to sensational martial arts, she was a good martial artist, and she didn't want to appear uninformed in Yaoyao's house, so she said: "It turned out to be the famous Wan Jiabu Wan Daxia, I really admired his name for a long time." She had indeed heard of Wan Jia Buqi a long time ago, and this was not a lie, and she did not blush.

Lei Gu said: "Yes, Wan Daxia knew that the martial arts of the Ghost Head Sect Leader were extremely high, and the number of people under his command was extremely large, and he himself might not be able to deal with it alone, so he invited other Jianghu heroes to join forces to fight." Wan Daxia himself is a great expert in making sticks, so he invited the boxing master Qiu Haibo, the swordsmanship master A You, and the empty master of Baoxiang Temple. took a bite of the bright red persimmon handed over by Wang Xue, and said: "That Ghost Head Sect Leader is also serious, one person stands up and singles out Wan Daxia and the other four...... Yaoyao poked her little head out of the window and interjected: "Grandpa, as soon as you talk about the past, it will be endless, Sister Wang Xue will have to get up early tomorrow to ask the Lord of Wancheng, she must go to bed early tonight, and she doesn't have so much time to listen to you at this time." Wang Xue was very tired, but it was inconvenient to disturb Lei Gu's interest, so she had to say: "Yaoyao, don't talk about your grandfather like that, my sister is not sleepy, I want to listen to your grandfather talk about the past of Wan Daxia." Grandpa Lei, you went on, what happened to the Ghost Head Sect Master?"

Lei had to be reminded by his granddaughter Yaoyao, and then he thought that Wang Xue must be too tired to fight Liu Shi today, seeing that Wang Xue's eyes were red and swollen and his spirit was completely gone, and he said that he was not sleepy, but in fact, he was already sleepy, so he smiled and said: "The leader of the Ghost Head Sect was later defeated by Wan Daxia, and Wan Daxia, Qiu Haibo, Ah You, and Master Kongjing are also called the 'Four True Heroes' by the people in the rivers and lakes. Okay kid, the past is over, go to sleep, recuperate tonight, have a good fight tomorrow, don't let Wan Daxia look down on it. He wanted to tell in detail about the specific experience of Wan Jiabu, Qiu Haibo and the other four people fighting the Ghost Head Sect, but he didn't mention it at this time.

Wang Xue wants to compete with the masters tomorrow, where can she sleep tonight when she is excited, but if she doesn't lie down and sleep early at this moment, how can she compete listlessly tomorrow, and don't let Wan Daxia laugh?

In the early morning of the next day, Wang Xue set off to the west to the training ground in the snowfield west of the city. She knew that today's battle was just a small test before the war, and it didn't matter whether she succeeded or failed, but she had always been strong and never showed weakness easily, and the tension in her heart at this moment was no less than the life-and-death struggle on the rivers and lakes.

After walking for about half an hour, I have walked out of the west of the city for three miles, only to see an abrupt snow hill in the forest not far away, which is the place where Wan Jiabu usually practices.

Wang Xue walked into the forest and walked under the snow hill, and then suddenly realized that although the hill was only a few feet high, it was very steep, and the mountain wall was all bare and snow-stained rocks, and if you wanted to climb up, I was afraid that there would not even be a single abrupt stone to settle on. Wang Xue looked at the snow hill and thought: "Such a steep rock wall, ordinary people can't climb it, no matter how high Wan Daxia's light skills are, I'm afraid it will be difficult to reach the top, but he is practicing on it, how did he go up, how should I go up? If I don't even see Wan Daxia's face and go back to the city, it will be extremely humiliating." ”

Suddenly, I heard a childlike voice behind me say: "Don't think about it, naturally there is another way up the hill, if you beat me, I will guide you to the peak." Wang Xue's heart sank, and she hurriedly turned around to check, but saw that there was silence in the forest, not to mention that it was a person, and not even a sparrow was missing. But I heard the boy say again: "The lord of ten thousand cities ordered me to be here to marry, and asked me to come and accompany you first." How about you, are you going to beat me?" Wang Xue heard the voice coming from the northwest corner, and looked sideways, but saw that there was only an empty snow field in the corner, and there was not even a single tree that could hide people. Wang Xue knew that someone was playing tricks on him, but he couldn't think of any tricks the other party made for a while, so he had an idea and said with a smile: "Child, forgive me that you are not my opponent, so you should make the first move." "I thought to myself, if you have the courage to come out, see how I can clean you up.

As soon as the words fell, I saw that the snow in the distance suddenly rose high, and the snow on the ground splashed with a "poof", and a snow-white figure came out of the ground, jumped high, and the fish burrowed back into the snow like water. Wang Xue laughed and thought, "I thought you had some clever tricks, but it turned out that it was just a retreat." No matter how high the kung fu of ordinary people who practice the art of retreat, it is impossible to escape to the ground as light as entering the water, but the snow is deep and soft, and it is much easier to dig the ground. Just as he was pondering, the snow on the left side suddenly splashed, and the white figure flew into the air, raised his leg and kicked it. Wang Xue hurriedly turned sideways to avoid it, and returned a "back straight punch". Unexpectedly, that person's body was extremely fast, and when Wang Xue's punch was thrown, others had already gotten into the snow. Wang Xue hurriedly swept away most of the snow in front of him, but the man had already dug up the snow and fled.

Suddenly, there was a slight noise behind him, and Wang Xue knew that it was this strange man in white who went around behind to sneak attack, and hurriedly turned around and kicked towards the snow. I only heard a miserable scream of "ahh Jumped into the snow and disappeared, leaving only the sound of digging in the snow. Wang Xuexin said: "You can escape quickly." "Close your eyes and listen to the sounds around you, there is silence in the woods, and if there is any sound, it must be from this boy. Sure enough, a sparse sound sounded in the snow behind him, Wang Xue knew that the boy was repeating his old tricks, and he was about to sneak attack from behind, so he pretended not to know at the moment, and looked into the forest in the distance, pretending to be looking for the boy's figure. When the sound was close at hand and suddenly disappeared, Wang Xue turned around violently and punched out a dragon punch, and the boy in white happened to jump up at this time, wanting to raise his leg and kick Wang Xue's forehead to avenge her kicking her head. Wang Xue's Huilong fist was shot first, hitting the boy's chest, which could have hit the top of the boy's head, but the boy suddenly jumped out of the snow, and the top of his head was several feet higher out of thin air, and Wang Xue's punch could only hit him in the chest. Rao is like this, the boy also fell not lightly, sat on the ground and was about to scold, but when he saw Wang Xue rushing towards him, he was shocked, screamed, turned around and stabbed into the snow, although he moved fast, after all, he was slow for a moment, and Wang Xue grabbed his left ankle.

Wang Xue finally caught the other party, how could he allow him to escape again, and the strength of the Haba technique in his hand was twisted towards his ankle. The boy had a pain in his ankle and struggled hard, but the more he struggled, the more painful his ankle became, and he shouted loudly in a hurry: "You let go!" Wang Xue smiled: "Stinky boy, if you surrender to my sister, let you go." The boy hurriedly said, "It's not your ability to bully people like this." Wang Xue said, "You use the Escape Technique to sneak attack me, is it your ability?" The boy snorted angrily and stopped answering. Wang Xue let go of his ankle and said with a smile: "Manly man, defeat is defeat, what is there to be afraid of? If you are defeated by that evil group of bandits one day, it will be a truly terrible thing." The boy was heartbroken and said, "Sister, what you said is true." "I admire Wang Xue very much, although his set of retreat techniques is not a kind of martial arts to win in fighting, but in the snow tumbling and rolling before and after sneak attack, ordinary martial artists really can't help it, but today he will be so neatly defeated by Wang Xue's hands, since he practiced the retreat technique, this is still something that has never happened.

Wang Xue said: "According to the agreement, you tell me the way to Shangqiu. The boy sat down on the snow, pointed to a path in the woods, and said, "Go half a mile over there, and you will see a sloped mountain road, and go up to it." He also said: "This is really strange, how did you know that I would sneak attack from behind?" Wang Xue smiled slightly and said: "Because the forest is so quiet, I can hear you if you make a little noise, and when I hear movement behind me, I know that you are going to sneak attack from behind." The boy was stunned. Wang Xue said again: "If it is in the noisy snowy mountains of birds and beasts, it is difficult for me to hear the sound clearly, and it will not be easy to hit you." If you make this method and fight the bandits on the snowy mountains, they will surely be beaten, and they will cry and cry and surrender. The boy laughed, and felt that this sister was really indescribably gentle and kind.

Wang Xue ignored him no more, and walked towards the forest, and after walking for about half a mile, he saw a path up the mountain, the path was winding, and although the snow hills were not very high, it seemed that it was not easy to climb them. Wang Xue only walked a short distance along the trail, but she had already turned three corners in succession, and after each turn, the snow path narrowed a few points, and when she arrived, the snow path was so steep and narrow that it could only accommodate one person to move forward, and there were cliffs on both sides.

Wang Xue reluctantly walked for a while, thinking: "You martial artists in Qili City don't have heads, don't go to a good martial arts training ground, you want to come to such a thrilling place to practice, if you fall down, although you don't die, you will inevitably bruises and even fractures." Just thinking about it, I suddenly heard a voice say coldly: "Why did you come, I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Wang Xue was stunned, looked up, and saw a woman who was extremely tall, not to mention a head taller than herself, standing on the mountain road in the distance, the woman was extremely slender, and she was wearing a white robe and standing motionless in the snow, otherwise Wang Xue would have seen her.

I only heard the woman say: "My name is Wang Ying, and I want to learn about your kung fu." Wang Xue was blocked by the boy in white before, and it was not unusual to encounter obstacles at this time, knowing that this was Wan Jiabu's opponent arranged for himself, and he wanted to compete with his subordinates before going to the hill, if he couldn't pass the two levels under him, then he didn't have to go up to the hill, and he couldn't help but be angry in his heart, your surname Wan also looked down on me Wang Xue too much, and he had to greet him at the moment: "Sister Wang Ying, you are a good friend of Master Dong, I have heard of your name." "Three years ago, when Wang Xiaoli took Wang Xue to Qili City, Wang Ying happened to go out on a long trip, and today is the first time to meet, but Wang Ying and her Wang Xue have heard Dong Peng mention it many times, knowing that her skills are profound, and she is no longer under Dong Peng, so she does not dare to slack off in her heart, and secretly guards against it. Wang Ying laughed and said: "The little girl is really good at talking, you have to be merciful when you start to do it later!" Wang Xue smiled: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." But I don't know where we are competing?" Wang Ying replied: "Since we met here, we naturally competed here." ”

Wang Xue was taken aback, except for a lonely narrow path, there are cliffs on both sides, and doing it here can not only judge the martial arts, but most of them can also judge life and death, even if Wang Xue can win, but this trip is invited to learn martial arts, and Wang Ying was injured by mistake, how can he go up to the hill to see Wan Jiabu again.

I only heard Wang Ying say: "The bandits on the main peak are all murderous and vicious people who kill people without blinking, if they are afraid of being injured and dare not use force, how can they be repelled? She is open-minded by nature, and she will say whatever comes to her mind, which is just a casual remark from the bottom of her heart, and has no intention of provocation. Wang Xue couldn't help but feel angry when she heard this, and thought: "Are you looking down on me when you say that?" and said proudly: "I don't want to use force here, I don't want to hurt you." Since you're not afraid of falling off a cliff and getting hurt, then make a move. She didn't say this politely, Wang Ying was used to being open-minded and didn't think it was angry, and said with a smile: "It seems that I underestimated you, little sister." The first move is coming, you be careful!" After saying that, he returned his elbow and slammed his shoulders into Wang Xue.
