Chapter 12: Trying the Sword
Xiao Shifeng and his entourage walked to the Jiuxuan Gate on Taiqing Mountain, and the current head Xuanming had already led a group of junior disciples to stand at the mountain gate to greet them.
Xiao Shifeng exchanged a few words with him, and then went straight into the back mountain to find the Xuan Qing people. On the mountain road, Xuanqing had already arranged for a small child to wait for the lead, and only then retreated in front of his seat.
Xiao Shifeng saw Xuanqing sitting quietly on the top of the high cliff, retreating and enlightening the abyss in front of him, so he also sat down cross-legged, not daring to disturb.
Murong Qi and the three of them stayed for another three days, seeing that Long Yingtian had not been invited, and there were people accompanying him when he traveled, although he was not under house arrest, he was not allowed to be free, so he was inevitably suspicious.
On this day, the three of them sat in the courtyard to discuss this matter, and the seventh junior brother Wang De was the most upright on weekdays, and said: "Senior brother, this Long Yingtian is so hospitable, I'm afraid that we will be put under house arrest to embarrass the master." ”
Fifth Senior Brother Zhang Liangyou said with a smile: "Seventh Senior Brother, don't talk nonsense. Our Jiuxuan and his Dragon and Tiger Alliance have always been well water and do not violate river water, and this martial arts conference did not embarrass them, so why is it embarrassing to be under house arrest. If we really want to be under house arrest, can we still hang out in the city every day these days?"
Wang Deyan said: "But senior brother, since there is no house arrest, we are interesting enough, why don't you leave?"
Murong Qi poured a cup of tea for each of the two junior disciples, and said: "Seventh junior brother, don't worry, we are here to do our best, and promise the Dragon Alliance Lord that the three-day deadline is approaching, and if he leaves tomorrow, he will not be able to keep it anymore." ”
"Senior brother, you have a set of things, let's be polite to him. Wang De was a little unconvinced.
Murong Qi was very calm: "We are the representatives of the Nine Xuanmen, and we can be regarded as the model of the Southern Martial Arts. The He Zhangmen martial arts conference made such a fuss, and there was discord between the north and the south martial arts. This time, he should do his best to fulfill the friendship of the landlord, if we leave on the same day, I am afraid that the news will reach the ears of fellow martial artists, and there will be misunderstandings. Long Yingtian just wanted to show harmony, so that the southern martial arts would not listen to the wind and waves, so what did it matter if we accompanied him for a few days. ”
After saying a few words, Wang De already understood a thing or two, and Zhang Liangyou also said: "Having said that, our master and the Empty Pure Buddha Temple have no quarrel with the world, and with the current scale of this Dragon and Tiger Alliance, they can really afford to maintain the peace and tranquility of the martial arts." The reason why some colleagues are prejudiced against the Dragon and Tiger Alliance is mostly because there are some weirdos in it, which brings some bad rumors. ”
At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the courtyard, and after getting the permission of Murong Qi and the others, Long Yingtian opened the hidden door and stepped into the courtyard.
I saw Long Yingtian smiling all over his face, clasping his hands into fists and saying, "I wonder how many virtuous nephews are quite satisfied with the food, housing, and transportation in recent days?"
"The Dragon Alliance Lord is polite. Murong replied: "We are grateful for the hospitality of the past few days. ”
"Dragon Alliance Lord, we're leaving tomorrow. Wang De was quick to speak, and Long Yingtian no longer forced him to stay: "Okay, I'll set up another table tomorrow to bid farewell to a few virtuous nephews." ”
"Well, you don't have to bother. Murong Qi originally wanted to leave tomorrow morning, but Long Yingtian said: "That's not good, a few people are rare guests, maybe this time, they will never see each other again." It's not too late to leave tomorrow afternoon. And a few days ago, I said that I wanted to compare swords, and I had to bother my nephew to give me some advice. ”
"Don't dare to give advice. Murong Qi said modestly: "You ...... the Dragon Alliance Master"
Before he finished speaking, Long Yingtian immediately interrupted: "It's not that I want to compete with you with swords, I never like to use swords, it's the two of them who want to compete with you." After Long Yingtian finished speaking, he turned around and pointed at Long Xiaoyuan and Yang Feng who were standing at the door, and the swords in their hands had been replaced by two sharp swords. It's just that Long Xiaoyuan admired Murong Qi, didn't dare to get too close, and was excited in his heart, so he didn't even step into the hospital. Even Yang Feng was also stopped.
Murong Qi and the three of them were confused at the moment. Long Yingtian then said: "The little girl is a good swordsman on weekdays, and she has just practiced a set of swordsmanship with Yang Fengxian's nephew, but she has no one to guide her. The virtuous nephew has always had the name of the little sword saint, and the little girl has admired it for a long time, but if she has a try, she has fulfilled her wish, so why not?"
Murong Qi understood: "It's okay, the Dragon Alliance Lord is polite." ”
"Well, let's get started. Long Yingtian and Zhang Liangyou all consciously stood on one side.
Long Xiaoyuan took two steps forward nervously, bent down and said, "Please...... Please advise. ”
Murong Qi raised his sword and made a gesture of please.
Yang Feng felt bored, and when he saw Long Xiaoyuan's virtue, he shook his head and said secretly: Incorrigible. Suddenly making eye contact with Long Yingtian, Long Yingtian's face was stern, suggesting that Yang Feng was about to attack.
"Offended. Yang Feng raised his sword in a dashing manner, practicing this swordsmanship with Long Xiaoyuan in recent days was indeed like opening another door, subverting his previous perception of swordsmanship.
The sword technique of subduing the dragon and subduing the tiger is not as domineering as the dragon slashing method taught to him by his father-in-law, but the moves are more flexible and changeable. Yang Fengjian dragged to the ground, and when he was in place, he hit Murong Qi in front of his chest. He knew in his heart that the person in front of him was a master, and it was impossible to be injured.
Sure enough, Murong didn't move his steps, but just leaned his right hand holding the sword towards Yang Feng's sword body, and Yang Feng felt a burst of strength lock his whole body, and he couldn't take a step closer. Murong exerted a force, and Yang Feng took a few steps back with his sword.
Retreating to Long Xiaoyuan's side, Yang Feng said, "I said Miss, you can't fight yet." ”
Long Xiaoyuan came back to his senses at this time, and looked at Murong Qi stupidly, and Murong Qi still made a gesture of please.
"Then offend. Long Xiaoyuan was extremely gentle, as soon as he finished speaking, Yang Feng rushed up again, and when he was repulsed again, Long Xiaoyuan dragged him: "Look at you frizzy, you are a dog." As soon as Yang Feng wanted to refute, Long Xiaoyuan stabbed him, and Murong Qi still stood there motionless, blocking left and right, letting Long Xiaoyuan's moves be fancy, he didn't mess up.
What made Murong Qi take a step back was the sword that Yang Feng stabbed out of Long Xiaoyuan's waist next, and this sword made Murong Qi have to retreat and dodge.
"Up!" Yang Feng pulled up Long Xiaoyuan, Long Xiaoyuan tossed in mid-air, Yang Feng attacked from the front, Murong raised his sword to block, Long Xiaoyuan had already landed in the air, but he stabbed into the air.
I saw that Murong Qi dodged lightly, and he dodged the cooperation of the two of them.
Yang Feng secretly applauded, thinking: He has never used a sword, but he can easily dodge the combined attack of the two by just using his footsteps, this kind of demeanor is transcendent.
Suddenly hearing a gust of wind in his ears, Murong picked up the sword barrel in his hand. Long Xiaoyuan blocked Yang Feng and received a sword, this sword Murong Qi did not use force, taking advantage of the emptiness of his lower abdomen, Yang Feng hurriedly shot the sword and attacked him unprepared.
How do you know that the cultivation is too shallow, Murong Qi decisively gave up the move to fix Long Xiaoyuan, took the scabbard to block Yang Feng's sword tip, Long Xiaoyuan had to take off a sword to cut at Murong Qi's shoulder, Murong Qi performed footwork, and actually went around behind Yang Feng, lifted Yang Feng's back collar and sent it close to the door, and he was separated between Long Xiaoyuan and Yang Feng.
When both of them stabbed in the middle, Murong Qi only took a slight step forward, then stepped out of the range, turned around and pressed his left hand on the sword body stabbed by Long Xiaoyuan, the sharp sword was forced, and it was attached to the sword body stabbed by Yang Feng, and the two of them couldn't take half a step forward at the moment, so they could only watch dryly.
"Sure enough, the hero is a teenager, good kung fu. Long Yingtian praised, and Murong Qi relented.
Long Xiaoyuan's face was already flushed: "Senior Brother Murong is really powerful. ”
Yang Feng scolded secretly: This crazy woman.
Long Yingtian stepped forward and asked, "How is this sword technique?" ”
Murong Qi replied: "This swordsmanship is ingenious, because two people are in a formation, and it is difficult to win by attacking one person. It's just that Senior Sister Yuan and this Brother Yang Feng are not familiar with this swordsmanship, and the attack is not retreating, and it is taboo to have no defense. ”
Long Yingtian: "What the virtuous nephew said is true. They lack actual combat, especially when facing masters whose internal strength is far superior to theirs, and relying on swordsmanship moves alone will undoubtedly hit the stone with eggs. This swordsmanship should retreat more than advance, retreat as advance, stick to the position, and the way is it. ”
"What the Dragon Alliance Lord said is very true. Murong Qi said: "However, this sword technique is also peculiar, and it can be of great use if it is cultivated." ”
Long Yingtian disagreed: "Walking martial arts should also rely on advanced martial arts, this swordsmanship is simple to cultivate, not a big material." Murong Xian's nephew is also a master of swords, so it is better to instruct them a few moves now. Wait until sunset, I'll wait for another meal, okay. ”
"Then it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate. Murong Qi agreed.
