Entering the wax moon, the weather is getting colder.

Xiao Jinyan and the others had internal strength to protect their bodies, but they didn't feel anything, but Li Dazhun, Li Jinhua and others on the boat had already changed into thick clothes to resist the invasion of the cold. Since the Cult of Light left, Xu Xianfeng stayed in the cabin and never came out again.

On the eighth day of the lunar month, the ship arrived in Wanzhou.

The famous Imperial Sword Villa on the rivers and lakes was built under the Shaping Peak in Wanzhou.

Three hundred years ago, the Royal Sword Villa was also a first-class sect in the rivers and lakes, and the first owner Sun Xiushan had extraordinary martial arts. At that time, Yujian Villa and Saibei Happy Horse Villa were called Erzhuang, and they were as famous as the four major families and the eight major schools.

Since the death of Sun Xiushan, the descendants of the Royal Sword Villa are not as good as the next generation, and when it comes to the current master Sun Qiangu, the martial arts are only a half-step through the image realm, and the villa is ranked in the rivers and lakes, and it has also been reduced to a second-rate sect. As for Happy Horse Villa, it was reduced to ashes in a fire twenty years ago. However, the sword of Edgeworth Villa is very popular in the rivers and lakes. Sun Qiangu is not good at martial arts, but he is very business-minded, and he exerts his sword-casting technology to the extreme. Every year on December 12, the Double Twelve Sword Casting Conference and Sword Appreciation Conference have attracted a large number of swordsmen from the rivers and lakes to participate.

This year's conference was very lively, as early as half a year ago, Sun Qiangu released a word, to meet friends with martial arts, the treasure of the sword villa Zhenshan Shake the mountain sword, and give it to the person who won the championship in the competition. The Sword of Shaking Mountain is known as the second divine sword in the world, and those who practice swords, who does not want to have such a divine weapon?

Qi Baihu had already disembarked in advance and went to report his itinerary to Qi Baidao, the master of the Hundred Knife Gate, and the Hundred Knife Gate secretly sold the red essence of the dark iron to the Tang Gate in Shuzhong, so naturally he had to transfer the dark iron away before the fine iron was delivered.

Because of Xiao Jinyan and others' insults to Sun Shaoming, Li Dazhun was also quite worried in his heart, in order to avoid being retaliated by the Imperial Sword Villa, he found someone to unload the goods overnight, and prepared to leave Wanzhou early the next morning and return to Jiangnan along the river. Before the boat could dock, a young man was heard shouting on the shore: "May I ask if Xiao Jinyan, Li Chengcheng, and Zhao Lanjiang are on the boat?"

The young man was dignified and spoke very politely.

"You are?"

The young man said respectfully: "Feng Kui, the swordsmith of the Lower Imperial Sword Villa, came to invite the three of them to come ashore on the order of the owner. ”

Hearing that the young man reported to his home, Li Dazhun turned pale with fright. The young man spoke politely, but the three of them really beat their young owner, and as soon as they landed, the Imperial Sword Villa came to the door, obviously they had been waiting for a long time.

Zhao Lanjiang said with a smile, "The person who finds fault is here." ”

Xiao Jinyan said, why are you still in the mood to laugh?

Zhao Lanjiang said: "Don't you want to fight to support the war, this is not a chance." It's a blessing or a curse, and it's a disaster that can't be avoided. The owner of the Royal Sword Mountain Villa personally went out, and it seems that the specifications are not low. ”

Li Jinhua said: "You are not allowed to go over. ”

Li Chengcheng glanced at her and said, "Everyone has found the door, if we don't go, they will also say that our nameless faction is afraid of the Imperial Sword Villa, how can we gain a foothold in the rivers and lakes in the future?"

Li Jinhua pursed his lips, looked stubborn, and stopped in front of the three of them, "I am the master, I said that I am not allowed to go, so I am not allowed to go." ”

Li Chengcheng said: "On the boat, we are nameless, and when we get off the boat, we are the rivers and lakes." We can't be on a ship for the rest of our lives. ”

When Li Jinbei heard this, he trembled, his mood was extremely complicated, and he secretly thought: Yes, although everyone has been getting along very happily these days, they are people in the rivers and lakes after all, and they can't be like me, trapped on this ship for the rest of their lives, they are heroic teenagers, and I am just a boatload of women, how can I restrain them according to my ideas? Li Jinhua, Li Jinhua, wake up, don't have unrealistic dreams.

Her eyes moistened at the thought of this.

Xiao Jinyan sighed and said, "Li Chengcheng, you stay, and I'll go with Zhao Lanjiang." ”

Zhao Lanjiang also said, "If you come back, the little master will still cry and mourn, be careful that I throw you into the river to feed the fish." ”

Li Chengcheng said: "No, I'll go, you stay." ”

The two went ashore, followed the young man, and walked for a short time until they came to a restaurant.

The guy knew this young man, and he didn't say much, and directly led everyone to the private room on the second floor.

Imperial Sword Villa Sun Qiangu, known as the Thunderbolt Sword in the rivers and lakes, although he is a person in the rivers and lakes, because he has been lifted in the early years, he is usually dressed as a Confucian student, but he has a fiery temper. Sun Qiangu is sixty years old this year, and he only got Sun Shaoming when he was not confused.

When Sun Shaoming came back this time, he heard that he was bullied in the rivers and lakes, and he was immediately angry, but when he heard that the people who beat him were Xiao Jinyan and Li Chengcheng, he hesitated. Being in the rivers and lakes, if you want to know the affairs of the rivers and lakes, ordinary people can not know Xiao Jinyan, but he has been dealing with various sects all the year round, so he naturally knows that Li Chuntie of Dengwen Academy has accepted a junior brother and taught art on behalf of the teacher. As for Li Chengcheng, the third young master of the Li family in Jinling, and the pearl of Li Xiaohua's palm, the background is even more profound. Li Chuntie he can't afford to mess with, and Li Xiaohua he can't afford to mess with him.

But if his son was beaten, if he didn't ask for an explanation, his face in the rivers and lakes would also be damaged. What's more, at this sword forging and sword appreciation conference, he was ambitious, posted a hero post, and invited the high-level leaders of the four major families and major sects to come, wanting to take the opportunity to establish his authority and let the Imperial Sword Villa return to the ranks of the first-class sects.

Therefore, he decided to meet Xiao and Li for a while.

When I saw the two of them, I only felt that the two of them were dragons and phoenixes among the people, with dignified appearances, although martial arts were only in the realm of knowing the Xuan, but if nothing else, they would become the leading figures in the rivers and lakes in the future. ”

Xiao and Li had long heard that Sun Qiangu had a hot temper and was extremely protective of his shortcomings, and he had already prepared for a vicious battle, but when he spoke so politely today, he couldn't help but be stunned, "Master Sun, I don't know why you invited our brother to come this time?"

Sun Qiangu said, "I heard that there are two young heroes in the rivers and lakes, and now passing by Wanzhou City, if I don't fulfill the friendship of the landlord, won't it seem that my grandson has no face? If Dean Li and the Xiaohua brothers see me in the future, won't they say that I am not well entertained? Haha!" He laughed twice, led the two to sit down, and said, "Serve wine." ”

Xiao Jinyan suddenly realized in his heart, it turned out that he had long known the identities of me and Li Chengcheng. Listening to his tone, he seemed to be very familiar with Li Chuntie and Li Xiaohua, but when he was in Dengwen Courtyard before, Li Chuntie did not speak highly of this person, saying that "his face is like jade, his sex is like fire, and his heart is like a needle", which is not worth a friendship.

Feng Kui, who was standing beside him, poured a full drink.

The two did not move their cups and chopsticks.

"Two brothers, I took the liberty of inviting you two thousands of miles today, because there is one thing, ask the two of you for verification. ”

Xiao Jinyan said: "Master Sun, please speak." "When I was forty years old, I gave birth to a dog nickname, the dog played a small lack of discipline, over the years to make trouble for me, I don't know how many times I played, but he just didn't listen, not long ago I went out down the mountain to practice, I heard that this time back, on the way and the two young heroes had a little misunderstanding, was beaten by the two, I don't know if there is such a thing?"

Xiao Jinyan couldn't understand the meaning of his words, and said vaguely: "Probably that's almost the case." ”

Sun Qiangu gave a thumbs up and said, "Good fight!"

"What does the old farmer mean?"

"As the saying goes, if the jade is not cut, it is not a weapon, and if it is not beaten, it will not be angry. Over the years, he has been spoiled too much, and as a result, he has become accustomed to a stinky temper, and you have taught him a lesson this time, so that he can naturally remember it for a long time, and let him know that there are people outside the people, and there are mountains outside the mountains, but ......"

Speaking of this, Sun Qiangu paused.

Conversation is also an art, let it be said in the air, but the key is the word "but". Xiao Jinyan said the right thing, raised his head, looked at Sun Qiangu, and didn't say a word.

"However, Shaoming is my son after all, my own child made a mistake and taught me a lesson, is it a bit too much for you to kick him into the river three times and twice?"

Xiao Jinyan was shocked, this is the Picture Realm!

It is rumored in the rivers and lakes that Sun Qiangu's sword-casting skills are first-class, his martial arts talent is mediocre, and when he is fifty years old, he is only in the upper realm of knowing Xuan, and Xiaosheng Jianghu also asserts that he is afraid that he will not be able to enter the Tongxiang realm in his life. However, when I saw them today, I trapped the two of them with the realm of general images. Presumably, over the years, he must have had some chance to make a breakthrough in martial arts.

No wonder he invited almost all the major sects at this sword-forging and sword-appreciating conference.

It seems that he is not very ambitious.

"Originally, these things are the grievances of your younger generation, and we are inconvenient to intervene, but there is a fierce woman in the family, and I heard that the dog was bullied, and I had to look for death and life, so the old man had to come to you to ask for an explanation. ”

Xiao Jinyan couldn't move at all, and cold sweat flowed.

"What do you want?"

Sun Qiangu stood up and came in front of the two, "Of course it's not your life, if you bully the dogs, each of you will cut off an arm." That's fair. ”

Li Chengcheng said: "This is not fair. ”

"How?"

"You say dogs, dogs, to put it bluntly, it's just a dog, you're just an old dog, it's fair to exchange a dog's life for two arms?"

Sun Qiangu was not angry at all, if someone scolded him for being a dog, he would have been angry, and now that he has achieved great success in his martial arts realm, looking at the dispute between the two people, he just feels the sadness of the little people.

Li Chengcheng said again: "If the small ones can't be beaten, just change the old ones, your Imperial Sword Villa is so shameless, aren't you afraid that the Li family in Jinling will come to trouble you?"

Sun Qiangu sneered in his heart, I invited all the major sects to come to this sword casting conference, it is the time when my Imperial Sword Villa is famous, the Li family in Jinling, and the head of the four great families, the old man has long seen that you are not pleasing to the eye, and now that you have sent it to the door, how can I miss it.

He said to the sword-forging boy, "Invite the young master out, let my son let out this evil breath today." ”

The boy came to the private room next door, and suddenly exclaimed "ah". After a while, he walked in with Sun Shaoming in his arms.

Sun Shaoming was tied with five flowers, a stinky sock was stuffed in his mouth, and a turtle was drawn on his forehead, and two words were written on it: "traitor". When Sun Qiangu saw these two words, his color suddenly changed, and he asked Feng Kui, "Who did it?"

Feng Kui shook his head, "When I went to the room, the young master was like this. ”

Sun Qiangu waved his hand in the air, and the rope on Sun Shaoming's body was broken, and he took out the socks in his mouth, and retched for a while. Sun Qiangu came to him, put his hands on his shoulders, stared at him and asked, "You tell my father what happened just now." ”

Sun Shaoming cried with a sad face, and said: "The child just listened to his father teach these two thieves next door, and suddenly there was a pain behind him, and the acupoint was sealed, and then that's it, I didn't see clearly who that person was." ”

Sun Qiangu asked, "Did he say anything?"

"No, he wrote on my forehead. By the way, that guy stinks!"

Sun Qiangu was very nervous, if the other party wrote "turtle", "bastard" and the like, he only thought it was a prank, but the word "traitor" shocked him in his heart, there is only one person in the world who knows about it, and that is Wang Banxian. But now that Wang Banxian Mud Bodhisattva crosses the river, it is difficult to protect himself, where is there any idle matter in the air management of the Imperial Sword Villa?

Obviously, what he has done has been seen by the other party, and he can now pass through the image realm, and he is sensitive to the qi of the martial artists in the world, and he can dive within ten zhang of himself without being detected, either the realm cultivation is higher than himself, or he is an ordinary mortal. It's not that there is nothing that cultivates higher than himself, but no one is boring enough to engage in this kind of prank.

Xiao Jinyan and Li Chengcheng have been mobilizing Zhenyuan to confront Sun Qiangu, and suddenly felt that their bodies were light, and Sun Qiangu collected his internal strength.

"Let's go, don't let me see you again in Wanzhou City. ”

Sun Shaoming said, "Dad, these two humiliate the children, they can't let them leave so easily!"

"Smack!"

Sun Qiangu slapped him, "Is it up to you to have the final say in this family, or is it up to me?" He stood up and left with Sun Shaoming, followed by Feng Kui, and not long after, the group came to Wanzhou Wharf.

Qi Baidao, the master of the Hundred Knife Gate, and Qi Baihu, the steward, were leading everyone to unload the ten thousand catties of fine iron, and when the last car was full and left, they saw Sun Qiangu and his son leading people here, and they stepped forward and said, "What kind of wind blew the owner of Sun Zhuang here, what a distinguished guest!"

Sun Qiangu was angry in his heart, he didn't dare to blatantly move Xiao Jinyan and Li Chengcheng, but the Hundred Knife Gate was not so lucky. He came to the dock with a fire and said in a deep voice, "Yujian Villa entrusted Baidaomen to collect 10,000 catties of refined iron, Sun was not at ease, so he came to take a look." ”

Qi Baihu said with a smile on his face, "Owner, these refined irons were all personally selected by me in Jiangnan and specially prepared for this sword casting conference. ”

Sun Qiangu sneered, "I'm talking to the Qi Sect Master, how can you speak here?"

Although Qi Baihu is the manager of the Hundred Daomen and Qi Baidao, he is the same brother and sister, seeing him insulting Qi Baihu, he can't help but be angry, Qi Baihu pulled his sleeve, he was suddenly startled, and almost forgot about Xuantie. He waved his hand, "Steward, you stand down." ”

Sun Qiangu asked, "Master Qimen, how has my Imperial Sword Villa treated you all these years?"

Qi Baidao said with a smile: "Thanks to the care of Master Sun, the business has been going smoothly, and our family has accepted your affection." Therefore, in this sword casting conference, I asked Baihu to go to Jiangnan to select fine iron in person, and it was also my honor to be able to make a modest contribution to the owner. ”

Sun Qiangu laughed out loud after hearing this.

Qi Baidao also laughed.

Suddenly, Sun Qiangu asked, "Ten thousand catties of refined iron have been unloaded?"

"It's all unloaded, and it'll be delivered to the village tonight. ”

"Is there something missing?"

"There are ten cars in total, and they have all been counted. ”

Sun Qiangu looked at the ship and said coldly, "Master Qimen, over the years, the Hundred Daomen has also earned tens of thousands of taels of silver from here a year, but it is a little chilling to do some things outside the inside. ”

Qi Baidao and Qi Baihu's faces changed drastically, "I don't understand what the owner means." ”

At this time, a subordinate came out of the cabin and said, "Master, I found it." ”

Qi Baidao was covered in cold sweat and looked at Sun Qiangu, "Zhuang Master, I can explain." ”

The mountain-shaking sword came out of its sheath.

"When you see King Yama, remember to bring one for me. ”

A sword stabbed at Qi Baidao.

At this time, Xu Feng, who was standing beside Qi Baidao, had already taken precautions, suddenly drew his sword, and greeted him.

Bang!

Xu Xianfeng was like a broken kite, falling back more than ten zhang, his eyes were stunned, and said: "Datong ......" Sun Qiangu snorted coldly, it was another sword, Xu Xianfeng didn't have time to swing the knife, and the head fell into the river like a broken kite.

The sword of shaking the mountain was returned to the sheath, and Sun Qiangu said proudly: "The first swordsman in the northern Xinjiang, but that's it." ”

Sun Qiangu was full of pride at the moment, he who had originally cultivated to be mediocre, but in just one year, he had been promoted to this realm, and he was glad that he had made a wise decision.

Several subordinates carried out a wooden barrel from under the cabin, and the barrel was filled with tung oil, and under the tung oil, there was a piece of iron lump as black as ink.

Sun Shaoming was overjoyed: "Congratulations to Daddy, practicing the sword." If this piece of dark iron can be trained into a divine weapon, I am afraid that there will be no daddy opponent in the world at that time. ”

This passage is a bit false, but from the mouth of his son, Sun Qiangu listened to it very usefully.

Qi Baidao and Qi Baihu had already run out of thirty zhang away, and Sun Qiangu broke two branches and threw them at the two, who were nailed to death on the side of the road.

Zhao Lanjiang saw all this.

He knew that Xu Feng's martial arts realm, and he was able to kill Xu Xianfeng with two swords between shots, Sun Qiangu's martial arts can only be described as unfathomable, but when he took out the sword, the indifference revealed in his eyes, Zhao Lanjiang seemed to have seen it somewhere.

Before leaving, Sun Shaoming glanced at Zhao Lanjiang and Li Jinhua, and his eyes were full of viciousness.

......

After Sun Qiangu of the Imperial Sword Villa left, Xiao Jinyan and Li Chengcheng were stunned in the room, and they didn't understand that Sun Qiangu could kill them, but they changed their minds temporarily.

Soon, this confusion was solved, and there was a stench, and Wang Banxian pushed the door in.

Xiao Jinyan was surprised, "Why are you here?"

Wang Banxian looked embarrassed, the blue cloth banner was also full of holes, he sat at the table, grabbed the dishes and devoured them, and after a while, a smoked chicken and three catties of beef were eaten into his stomach, and he drank a pot of wine on the table, and burped.

Xiao Jinyan looked at him with some pity, "How did you get this look?"

Wang Banxian didn't have a good breath and said, "I was chased by a dog in Shujian Mountain for two months, I didn't eat or drink, I didn't even dare to sleep, you try it, where can you be better than me?"

Xiao Jinyan was shocked in his heart, thinking of the Mai Sword Cultivator who killed the Golden Sword and the Crazy Knife.

In the battle of the Sword King, Wang Banxian couldn't help but go to Taihu Lake to watch the battle, revealing his identity, and in the past two months, he fled everywhere and played a game of hide and seek with that sword cultivator. He went to the East China Sea and hid in the belly of a whale, but the whale was split in half by Jian Xiu, and he escaped into the northern frontier and escaped into the desert tomb, and the sword Xiu destroyed the ancient tomb with a sword, all in all, during this time, he was very unhappy.

"Seniors come here, what do you have to say?"

Wang Banxian said: "I only have half a stick of incense, I don't have time to listen to your ramblings, I only pick up the important ones, hurry up and prepare ten catties of beef for me, a pot of good wine, I will fucking eat a meal first, so as not to be bitten to death by that dog in the future, and be a starving ghost." ”

"Didn't you say it was important?"

Wang Banxian scolded, "I'm full, it's more important than anything else." ”

Xiao Jinyan went to buy food, packed it into a package, and sent it to Wang Banxian, Wang Banxian put it on his shoulder, and said to the two: "Next, every word I say is very important, you two listen well." In the dungeon behind the mountain of Edgeworth Villa, there is a person hidden on him, he has a treasure on his body, the mountain and river luck map, you find him and kill him. Don't let that dog get the picture first. ”

"Mountains and rivers luck map?"

Wang Banxian saw that the two of them looked puzzled, and explained: "In this world, there are some strange people, Dan Qingsheng is one, as long as he wants to, he can draw what will happen in the future, two months ago, he died in the hands of that dog." In the dungeon of the Imperial Sword Villa, there is also a person who hides the world's luck map in his chest, this picture, the people who practice martial arts in the world are hidden in it, everyone has a bit of the world's luck, and after the martial arts reach the realm of knowing the Xuan, that person will leave traces on the luck map. ”

When martial arts enter the realm of knowledge, they will sense the breath between heaven and earth.

In the same way, the luck of heaven and earth will also sense the existence of martial artists. This map of mountains and rivers can be said to mark the location of all the masters in the world, and of course, there are some people who can hide between heaven and earth with the help of some formations, magic weapons, etc.

Xiao Jinyan wondered, "So what?"

Li Tingcheng's eyes lit up, "You mean, the people on Shujian Mountain will snatch this luck map?"

"Not bad. Once the mountain and river luck map falls into their hands, it will be equivalent to having a map, and at that time, all the people who practice martial arts on the rivers and lakes, the unknown places of the Second Pavilion, the Third Sect, and the Four Sects, as well as the great masters who are desperately suppressing the realm hidden in the world, will all become the prey of Shujian Mountain, think about what will happen!"

The Supreme Heavenly Dao on Shujian Mountain defines the rules of the world, and no existence against his will is allowed.

It's going to be a catastrophe.

Before the two of them could digest the content of his words, the string of bells in Wang Banxian's hand suddenly rang.

Wang Banxian said, "That dog is already within a hundred miles, you must remember what I said, find that man, and kill him." ”

After that, Lan Wan'er flickered, and Wang Banxian disappeared in front of the two of them out of thin air.

Li Chengcheng looked at it for a long time and said, "What kind of realm is this?"

Xiao Jinyan said: "It's probably an escape realm outside the Three Realms, right?"
