Pearls were originally a symbol of purity and happiness.

But a jade pearl that no one has seen until now, and everyone who has seen it has entered the Yellow Spring, has ruined how many originally happy families.

And the intrigue behind it is not something that can be resolved by one or two people.

The troubled times have not yet appeared, and the series of effects caused by them are still emerging.

And because of this bead, the most lively event caused by it was the peace ring outside the peaceful town.

Heping Town is close to the mountains and rivers, the geographical environment is superior, and the wind and rain are smooth all year round. And the official approval has made the place get a good economic development.

The ring of Ping'an Ring occupies an extremely wide area, with a length and width of ten zhang, and is backed by a large river. The river is turbulent all year round, and it is dizzying to stand on the platform and look down.

And the ring, since it is open to the whole world, naturally it will not be so simple.

The arena is divided into four floors, each separated by a larger one than the previous one.

Counting from the bottom to the top, the first floor on the flat ground is only half a person high, with a total of six steps on three sides.

The second floor is slightly smaller than the first and is supported by four columns. To go up, you need to use the ladder next to it. Between the two layers of rings, there is a foot apart.

The third floor is a little smaller than the second, separated by two feet. If you want to go up, you can only borrow the four wooden pillars that connect the four corners. All four pillars were wrapped in iron sheets, and they were unusually strong.

The three or four layers are three feet apart, and they are connected by only four long wires. It is supported by four thick pillars hugged by several people under the center of the platform.

These four-story high platforms, one layer is more difficult to get up than the other, and the other is more difficult to beat than the other.

If you can go to the fourth floor, you don't have to fight, and your reputation has already spread.

On the day the ring was built, the people below looked up at the four-story platform, and their hearts were hairy.

"Brother, you say, how can those people go up to such a high place. ”

"You don't understand this, those people in the rivers and lakes have practiced a kung fu called 'invisible wings'. Once it is unfolded, it flies into the sky like a bird, and ordinary people can't see it. ”

"Just blow it. A person dressed as a scholar next to him couldn't stand it, interrupted him, and said, "What you are talking about is Lei Zhenzi, not a mortal." In the rivers and lakes, how can there be a birdman with wings. ”

"Then you say, how can they get on the high platform? ”

"Those people in the rivers and lakes practice light skills. What to jump horizontally into the river, vertically jump into the sea, and step on the feet of thousands of high-rise buildings. These are all years of hard work. ”

"Speaking so slippery, have you ever practiced?"

"Ha! If I had practiced Cao, I would have become a generation of heroes a long time ago, and I still have kung fu to play tricks with you here. ”

Although the construction of the ring was completed today, the feng shui master in the town said that it is not suitable to start the ring today, and the worship of the river god must be held tomorrow before it can really begin.

But even so, there are quite a few people here today.

Most of them are sent by major gangs to fight the front station, and the rest are those who have economic acumen who put up their stalls in advance and are ready to make a good profit.

Before dawn the next day, those who got the news got up early and rushed over from ten miles and eight towns to see this once-in-a-century event.

It was late that day, and I could only look up at the high platform that no one had gone up for the time being.

First of all, it is held to worship the god of the river.

The sacrifice, naturally, is at the highest point of the ring.

I saw that on the fourth floor of the ring, there was an offering table, and there were three animals and fresh fruits on the table. I don't know how they got things up overnight.

In front of the offering table, there stood a mage dressed in ornate costumes. Holding a yellow paper talisman in one hand and a peachwood sword in the other, he danced a way, which was regarded as inviting the river god out.

Then two more memorial texts were read, one was to worship the river god, and the other was to worship the emperor Tianhou soil.

You don't want to see the teacher's ritual performance so slippery, but your heart is trembling all the time. Where has he ever been on such a high platform?

At the end of the prayer, the mage passed the rope and let him down. As for the offerings and the tables, they were placed on the fourth floor for the river gods to enjoy.

Then, the local magistrate and other officials took the stage to speak.

By the time it was all over, it was almost lunchtime.

Those officials had no interest in this competition, so they naturally went back to the town to rest.

After everyone had lunch and rested for a while, the show was officially staged. After waiting for a long time, everyone was already eager to try, just waiting for this moment.

With the sound of a cannon, a young man with a small head and a long camera stepped into the ring in three steps and two steps.

Immediately, the audience began to talk again.

"Is this man okay? Not as tall as I am. If he can do it, I can go up too. ”

"It's not about the size of the martial arts practitioner, don't look at him as high, and it's okay to beat the three of you. ”

After the young man came on stage, he coughed lightly a few times, and when the audience was quiet, he said loudly: "Hello everyone. The fact that I was able to come here and meet you is a kind of fate. Let me introduce myself first, my name is Zhang Guang, and he is a small leader of the Desheng Gang. I didn't come up to earn the first person in the ring. It's just that when I saw that no one was in the ring, I came up to warm up. Without further ado, I'll first play a set of marksmanship for you and make it lively for everyone. ”

After speaking, Zhang Guang walked to the weapon rack, pulled out a flower gun, walked to the center of the ring, posed, shook the head of the gun, and danced a set of Mulan marksmanship.

The Mulan gun is suitable for women, and Zhang Guang, who is not tall, is just right to practice.

I saw that Zhang Guanggun played a good game, and at a glance, he knew that he had worked hard for several years.

At first, I saw people dancing spears there, but later, only human figures flickered, spear blades were fired, and red tassels trembled.

At the end of the dance, Zhang Guang stopped suddenly, threw the spear in his hand, and just inserted it into the weapon rack next to him.

"Good!"

This hand immediately aroused applause from the audience, and at the same time greatly increased Zhang Guang's self-confidence.

I saw him take a hand towel placed on the corner table, wiped his sweat, took a few breaths, and then said: "Everyone, as the saying goes: the first three outs are not a good show." The few hits I just made are nothing in the eyes of connoisseurs, just to throw bricks and attract jade. I believe that there are more powerful masters in the audience, please come up and give advice. ”

For a while, there were really not many people on stage.

First, these gangs and lakes duel are all about a place, a group of people are scuffling, how can they compete in front of everyone. That's not the same as monkey tricks.

Second, the most important thing is to win the gang fight, but when you come to power, you have to act in a righteous and bright way. Habitual tricks such as sprinkling white ash and beating stuffy sticks cannot be used.

Being seen as a monkey and beaten so aggrieved, these people naturally don't want to go on stage.

Seeing that no one responded to the war, Zhang Guang was even more proud.

"What's the matter? No one came up, shouldn't be! My kung fu, everyone has seen it just now, at best, it is at the level of showmanship. If you can't get into the eyes of the masters, why doesn't anyone dare to come to power? With such a big river and lake, what are the three major forces of righteousness, evil, and neutrality, and the masters are like stars in the sky, can I not get in and out of the ring alone......

The more this kid talks, the more crazy he becomes, and the more he talks, the more unscored.

Finally, someone in the audience couldn't stand it anymore and shouted: "Boy, don't talk big, your grandfather Wu Dali will come up to teach you a lesson." ”

The man's voice was so loud that it was like a thunderbolt.

The people around him covered their ears and stepped back.

I saw that the person who spoke was a big black man with a bare upper body. The sun shone on his dark skin, making it even more powerful.

This person is as strong as an ox, a head taller, even if he doesn't speak, standing there, he is very conspicuous.

Although he got out of the way, Wu Dali still felt that the road was a bit narrow. Push away the crowd and step into the ring vigorously.

As soon as he stepped into the ring, Zhang Guang felt the stage shake.

I saw Wu Dali pointing at Zhang Guang and said, "You kid, you are too arrogant to speak, and you are not afraid of the wind flashing your tongue." The masters in the rivers and lakes are like clouds, which round will get you. Today, I will teach you arrogant and ignorant boy a lesson for the heroes of the world. ”

When Zhang Guang heard this, he was also very unhappy in his heart: "Wu Dali, everyone is going to the rivers and lakes, don't talk so impulsively." Who are you, and what qualifications do you have to replace the heroes of the world? Let's draw a way, whether it is a blade, or a fist and kick, I will accompany the little master. ”

Wu Dali looked at the little man in front of him and said, "I don't take advantage of you, it's just a weapon." ”

As he spoke, Wu Dali turned around and pulled out a jujube wood stick from the weapon rack: "How is it, do you want to take a break?"

"Thank you for your concern, but you don't have to. Zhang Guang pulled out the weapon rack, and it was still the flower gun.

He knew that this Wu Dali was not losing his strength, and he could only respond to the enemy with dexterous and changeable moves, and he could not fight hard.

"Be careful. Zhang Guang woke up, grabbed the flower gun tightly and rushed over.

Seeing the other party's move, Wu Dali stood up to block the opponent's move to "pull the grass and find the snake".

Unexpectedly, when he came to the front, Zhang Guang suddenly jumped high and changed to a trick "Spring Rain". Countless spears stabbed Wu Dali's face.

Don't look at Wu Dali, he is big and looks very simple, but he is also clever in his reaction. Seeing Zhang Guang's sudden change of tactics, he hurriedly swept the stick.

I heard a muffled sound in mid-air, and Zhang Guang was shocked and flew out.

Fortunately, Zhang Guang's body was flexible, and he flipped a few heels in mid-air to unload the force, and then he landed smoothly.

It's so dangerous, the heels of both feet are already empty, if you retreat a little more, you will fall into the ring.

At this moment, Wu Dali's big stick had arrived.

Zhang Guang hurriedly rolled on the spot and hid aside. Before he could stand up, he returned his hand and stabbed it out.

At the critical moment, Wu Dali inhaled, and his waist and abdomen were smaller, dodging a fatal shot.

But when he heard the sound of "cila", a large piece of the clothes on Wu Dali's waist was crossed off.

Suddenly, Wu Dali was scared into a cold sweat.

Seeing that the opportunity could not be missed, Zhang Guang did not give Wu Dali a chance to breathe, and the spear in his hand danced towards the other party.

Although Wu Dali has great strength and reacts quickly enough, he has no choice but to act slowly.

The first few hits can still be blocked, but later, there is a gun flower in front of me.

As a last resort, he could only retreat.

But he forgot that the two of them had already reached the edge of the ring.

After another thirty rounds of fighting, Zhang Guang came to a gun and kicked Wu Dali's lower abdomen, kicking him directly to the audience.

Such a big person fell under the stage, and there was immediately a mess below. There are those who come forward to help, and there are those who applaud.

Hearing the cheers, Zhang Guang felt a pride in his heart, arched his hand to everyone in the audience, crossed his mouth, returned to the table in the corner, and drank tea and rested.

At this moment, a man rushed to the ring and came to the center of the ring.

Since the person who came did not take the steps, but jumped directly into the ring. Then he turned a few hollow heels on the stage, which immediately provoked applause.

When Zhang Guang saw that someone had stolen his limelight, he felt a little unhappy.

He stood up, walked over to the man, and asked, "I don't know what to call this friend?"

"In the next famous gang - Liu Sandao. ”

"Oh! Zhang Guang deliberately dragged his voice long, as if he deliberately couldn't remember who this person was, and finally reluctantly said a long admiration.

"But Liu Sandao, you also saw the results of the competition just now. That Wu Dali just now, who was tall and big, was also kicked down by me. You're not as tall as me, so if you don't have that strength, you'd better go down as soon as possible. ”

"Go down, go down. As soon as Zhang Guang said this, the Desheng gang at the bottom coaxed together. When the surrounding people saw this, they also shouted.

"Hahahaha!" In the noisy voice, Liu Sandao suddenly laughed a few times and said: "If you talk about winning or losing in terms of height and shortness, Wu Dali is much taller than you just now, why don't you admit defeat." If you are afraid of losing, you dare not compare, find a reason, just say that you are uncomfortable, and I will not laugh at you. ”

"You...... Okay, Liu Sandao, there is no conflict between my Desheng Gang and your Fame Gang. But since you've said so, then I don't have to be polite to you. ”

After speaking, Zhang Guangyou lifted the flower gun.

"Do you want to take a break?" Before the competition, Liu Sandao did not forget to stimulate his opponent.

"No, why bother beating you. ”

Liu Sandao, since he used this name, is naturally good at knife skills.

I saw him pick up the double knives on the shelf, put on a posture, and went straight in with a single knife, and the double knives were linked.

Don't listen to his name as Three Swords, just think that he only has Three Swords of Kung Fu. In fact, Liu Sandao not only worked the double knife, but also was extremely flexible in his body style.

Although Zhang Guang also practiced marksmanship hard, he had no choice but to show off on the field at the beginning, and then fought viciously with Wu Dali. It's a bit of a physical deficit right now.

It seems that the only way to do it is to make a dangerous move.

Zhang Guang thought so in his heart.

After twenty moves, Zhang Guang dodged a move, his feet were crooked, and he almost didn't stand firm.

Liu Sandao saw that the opportunity could not be missed, and the double knife used a force to split Huashan.

When he couldn't dodge, Zhang Guang raised his gun to block.

But what he held in his hand was a thin flower gun, and he had lost a lot in the fight with Wu Dali just now, and now he could not compete with the power of these two knives.

Just heard the "click", and the spear was broken into two.

But this is exactly the trick set by Zhang Guang to win in defeat.

I saw that Zhang Guang's originally slightly bent legs suddenly took half a step back, and his hands stabbed straight at Liu Sandao's hands.

Liu Sandao was so frightened that he hurriedly retreated, but he was still a step slower.

There was a "bang" sound, and the two knives fell to the ground.
