Chapter 19: Summons
In a quiet small courtyard of the training camp, Zhang Tie's figure swayed around, and the long sword in his hand seemed to have life.
Practice the sword! Practice the sword!
After returning to the training camp, Zhang Tie stayed in the small courtyard and hadn't gone out for a long time. He only does one thing, practice swords!
Practice like a madman!
The small courtyard is used as a part of the training camp, and the training camp is assigned a place to live. Much larger than the small quadrangle of the 'ghetto'.
There is a courtyard in front of him, and Zhang Tie no longer needs to go to Black Feather Lake, and stays in the small courtyard all day to practice swords.
He buried his hatred in his heart and practiced his sword desperately.
After a while, there was a knock on the door in the courtyard.
Knock! Knock!
"Here we go!"
Zhang Tie stuck his long sword on the ground, picked up a towel and wiped the sweat beads on his forehead, and opened the door.
Outside the door, stood a woman in a light veil.
"Young girl!"
The woman is the girl who has been following Lord Liu, Zhang Tie's full name is I don't know, everyone calls her a young girl, and Zhang Tie also calls her like this.
"Lord Liu is looking for you!"
The young girl nodded at Zhang Tie.
"Now?"
"Yes!"
Zhang Tie nodded his head and followed behind the young girl. It's been a long time since I last saw Lord Liu.
He didn't have time to clean himself up, so he followed the young girl and walked towards Lord Liu's residence.
In Lord Liu's courtyard, it is still quiet, compared to before. Instead of lying down, Mr. Liu stood next to the bamboo recliner.
After seeing Zhang Tie, Master Liu showed a smile and said, "You are really diligent!"
Zhang Tie was wearing a strong suit for practice, which was full of wrinkles and dust at this time, and it could be seen at a glance that he should still be cultivating not long ago.
"My lord, if you want to improve your strength, you have to keep practicing diligently!"
Zhang Tie naturally won't say his true thoughts, if he wants revenge, only if he is diligent in cultivation, maybe there will be a chance!
"Good, good!"
Lord Liu nodded his head, pointed to something next to him, and said, "Use your sword and pierce this box, be careful, don't pierce the film inside!"
Zhang Tie looked in the direction that Lord Liu was pointing, where there was a pitch-black, wood-like box, with no lid at the top of the box, and the inside could be seen from above.
Inside the box, there is a milky white film.
"Uh......"
Zhang Tie touched his head and said with some embarrassment: "I didn't bring a weapon!"
Afraid that Lord Liu would have something important to find him, Zhang Tie did not carry a weapon. How can you pierce that box without weapons?
"You, you!"
Lord Liu was not angry, shook his head, and commanded the young girl.
The young girl turned and walked into the house, and after a while, she came out with a long wooden box.
Lord Liu took the wooden box, opened it, took out a long sword that was steaming cold, and handed it to Zhang Tiedao: "Use this!"
"So sharp!"
Zhang Tie took the long sword, felt the slightest chill coming from the blade, and couldn't help but sigh.
"I warn you, use all your strength, or you won't be able to pierce this box!"
"Good!"
Zhang Tie held the long sword in his hand, and with a light sound, he turned into a phantom with the long sword and stabbed towards the box!
Burst!
A crisp voice sounded, and Zhang Tie pulled out his long sword with surprise. What kind of material is that wooden box made of, it's better to use all your strength, otherwise you won't be able to pierce the box!
The young girl walked to the box, took out the film inside, and handed it to Lord Liu.
"Yes, yes!"
On the film, there is only a small scar. And on the wall of the box next to it, it was pierced by a long sword!
"Being able to pierce this box proves that the power you have acted on the long sword is no less than a thousand catties. And you didn't pierce the membrane, which means that the control of your long sword has been greatly achieved!"
Lord Liu handed the film to the young girl, and looked at Zhang Tie's eyes full of satisfaction.
Zhang Tie did not disappoint him, and the progress was quite obvious.
Lord Liu pondered for a moment and said, "Originally, I just wanted to test your recent strength, but I didn't expect you to give me a surprise, I estimate that your current strength is very close to a guard." Probably, it's just that the strength is a little worse. It's time for you to do something!"
After Lord Liu finished speaking to Zhang Tie, he turned around and asked the young girl, "Is it time to rotate over Xiaotou Mountain recently?"
The young girl thought for a while, and nodded her head at Lord Liu: "Yes, my lord!"
"That's good!"
Lord Liu turned around and said to Zhang Tie, "You go back and prepare, and come to me tomorrow." I'll arrange an errand for you, and it will take about half a year!"
"Yes!"
Zhang Tie bowed his body and respectfully agreed.
Back in his small courtyard, Zhang Tie packed up some clothes and continued to practice swords.
Including the errand that Lord Liu said, he also put it in the back of his mind.
He just wants to improve his strength as soon as possible!
Is one guard enough? Definitely not enough! As for what is on top of a guard, Zhang Tie doesn't know.
He only knows that he keeps practicing swords. The long sword in his hand can help him avenge his parents!
Early the next morning, Zhang Tie took the package and weapons and came to Lord Liu's small courtyard again.
What he didn't expect was that in Lord Liu's courtyard, a bald man was already waiting.
The bald man was carrying a spear that had been dismantled in two on his back, and with a black suit, after seeing Zhang Tie, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Presumably this is Zhang Tie's little brother, right?"
"Come, Zhang Tie, you two get to know each other, this is also a member of my command, Yi Tiancheng, among the guards, he is also stronger!"
Zhang Tie was startled and hurriedly said hello.
"Zhang Tie, if you are with Yi Tiancheng, he will arrange everything!"
After a brief explanation, Lord Liu let the two leave.
"Brother Yi, I don't know what the errand Lord Liu is talking about?"
"Don't worry, Brother Zhang Tie, it will take a few days for the errand to really start, you can follow me to the meeting place first!"
Yi Tiancheng touched his bald head, took Zhang Tie out of the training camp, and came directly to a very large martial arts training ground.
There, horse-drawn carts were parked everywhere, and people were loading them with all kinds of substances.
"When all those carriages are loaded, we will set off, and in this time, let's stay here!"
Zhang Tie looked over at a glance and saw that a large part of the carriage was still empty. No wonder Yi Tiancheng said that it would be a few days before he could set off.
"Little Brother Zhang Tie, why don't we have a fight?"
Yi Tiancheng showed fiery eyes and stared at Zhang Tie. He is still very interested in the person whom Lord Liu admires very much!
Seeing that Zhang Tie was silent for a long time, Yi Tiancheng hurriedly spoke: "Don't worry, Lord Liu said that you definitely have the strength of the Eryu guards, and the strength I use will definitely not exceed the Eryu guards!"
"So what are you waiting for?"
Zhang Tie took out his long sword and smiled at Yi Tiancheng.
He also wanted to know how his current swordsmanship was compared to a guard!
"Haha, refreshing!"
Yi Tiancheng touched his bald head, took off the spear behind him, put it together with a click, and looked at Zhang Tiedao with the gun in one hand: "Come on!"
"Huh!"
Zhang Tie snorted lightly, rushed forward with a long sword in his hand, and fought with Yi Tiancheng!
"It's good to come!"
Seeing this, Yi Tiancheng immediately waved the spear in his hand!
As soon as he fought, Zhang Tie knew that he had met a real master. Yi Tiancheng's spear is like an unpredictable poisonous snake, baring its fangs at Zhang Tie, and if you don't pay attention, you will be bitten!
When!when!
Zhang Tie's long sword collided with Yi Tiancheng's spear, and a crisp sound was heard.
"Haha, Brother Zhang Tie, my weapon is longer than yours, if you go on like this, you will lose!"
The spear grows too much longer than the long sword, and although Zhang Tie has been attacking, he is blocked outside, and he can't get close to Yi Tiancheng's body!
"Not necessarily!"
On the side of Zhang Tie's footsteps, the whole person became uncatchable.
Yi Tiancheng had a cautious look on his face, staring in one direction, and the spear in his hand bit towards that place like a poisonous snake.
"Huh?"
The spear is in the air!
"Not good!"
Yi Tiancheng showed an incredible look on his face, Zhang Tie, who was still in the place where his spear was lit just now, was already close to him at some point!
That's the point of the long weapon, after the distance is too close, the power will be reduced immediately!
Seeing that the long sword in his hand was slashed towards his neck, Yi Tiancheng dodged to the side of his body, and then exerted force on his feet, wanting to distance himself from Zhang Tie!
"I won't let you get your way, Brother Yi!"
Zhang Tie laughed, stabbed at Yi Tiancheng with one sword after another, and followed closely, not letting Yi Tiancheng distance himself at all!
At close range, the spear in Yi Tiancheng's hand became a burden, and he looked a little embarrassed.
"Good boy!"
The corners of Yi Tiancheng's mouth rose slightly, and he simply let go of the spear in his hand, and while dodging the attack of Zhang Tie's long sword, he punched Zhang Tie one punch at the other.
Yi Tiancheng's fist was fast and accurate, and he temporarily suppressed Zhang Tie's attack.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect me to know how to box!"
Yi Tiancheng waved his fist and Zhang Tie's long sword, waving it crosswise in the air. Without paying attention, his fist was touched by the long sword of Hui Tie!
Once touched, his fist will definitely open the flesh!
But in fact, Zhang Tie didn't feel good!
He didn't think that Yi Tiancheng's boxing skills were no worse than marksmanship! punch after punch, fast and steady, even if he had weapons, he still couldn't press him to fight!
The two were fighting, and Yi Tiancheng opened his mouth to stop.
"Okay, Brother Zhang Tie, let's stop here!"
He shouted and stopped. He could see that if he continued to fight, Zhang Tie would be exhausted and defeated.
Zhang Tie's sword was suppressed by his fist technique, and his fist technique could not break through Zhang Tie's sword technique, and it was already deadlocked.
He also just wanted to have a discussion with Zhang Tie, and he didn't really want Zhang Tie to admit defeat. After all, there are still a lot of people watching over there.
Zhang Tie put away his long sword and nodded at Yi Tiancheng. He knew in his heart that he had lost very badly! Not to mention the defeat of the swordsmanship, and others had been suppressing their strength to fight with him!
"Brother Zhang Tie, be content. How old are you this year, how old am I this year. Your swordsmanship, even in a single guard, is at an average level. Besides, your footwork is weird!"
Seeing Zhang Tie pondering, Yi Tiancheng touched his bald head, walked to Zhang Tie's side, and gently hammered his shoulder.
"That's Big Brother Yi letting me in!"
"You kid!"
Yi Tiancheng shook his head, but he admired Zhang Tie very much in his heart. At this age, with such strength, he is not arrogant or arrogant, and it is worth handing over!
"Your footwork is very weird, and you are very restrained with long weapons. However, you still have too little experience, and I never thought that my boxing skills are not inferior to marksmanship!"
Yi Tiancheng thought for a while, and continued to Zhang Tie: "You are still young now, and there must be room for improvement in swordsmanship. What you are bad at is experience. You must know that the master of using long weapons knows that he cannot be approached. They will definitely be on guard, as far as I know, almost all masters of long weapons have mastered a close range of cheats!"
"Ah, thank you, Brother Yi!"
Zhang Tie looked at Yi Tiancheng gratefully, if he didn't remind him, he would suffer sooner or later!
Let's go get a bite to eat and talk while we eat!"
Yi Tiancheng put his arms around Zhang Tie's neck and pulled Zhang Tie down into a simple house.
"Come on, Brother Zhang Tie, try it, this is the food sent by Tiancheng Restaurant, and it tastes quite good!"
In the simple room, Yi Tiancheng pointed to a table of dishes on the table and warmly entertained Zhang Tie.
Indeed, the food on the table is full of flavor and taste, and it looks very appetizing!
Both of them were pot-bellied men and began to eat violently. In a few moments, a table of food was in their stomachs.
"It tastes good!"
"Delicious!"
Zhang Tie nodded his head with some aftertaste, those dishes are very delicious.
"Brother Yi, I want to know, where is the gap between me and a guard?"
After eating his stomach, Zhang Tie asked his doubts.
"Actually, the difference is not very big!"
Yi Tiancheng held a chicken bone, peeled his teeth, and said: "Your swordsmanship is stronger than some guards, if you really want to talk about the gap, it is actually strength!"
"Strength?"
Zhang Tie remembered that Master Liu had also said this. But Lord Liu was his boss, and he didn't dare to speak easily.
Yi Tiancheng in front of him has a bold personality, and he is a colleague with Zhang Tie, so he doesn't have so many scruples.
"Yes, the minimum attack power of a guard is two thousand catties. So you should understand!"
"Huh?"
Zhang Tie was taken aback, but there were waves in his heart. It's not much worse, it's much worse!
Zhang Tie's strength has been increasing since he used the 'Quenching Fluid', but in recent months, this increase has almost stalled.
He estimated that his physical strength should be about 1,500 catties now.
It's not that the physical strength is 1,500 catties, and you can attack 1,500 catties of strength, Zhang Tie estimates that he should be able to attack about 1,300 catties.
But the distance from the lowest is 2,000 catties, and there is still a distance of 700 catties! Don't look at the distance of 700 catties, the limit of a person is to lift a stone lock of 100 catties, and if you ask him to lift 10 catties more, it will be quite difficult!
Zhang Tie's strength growth has almost stagnated, and if it goes on like this, he doesn't know when he will have the strength of a guard!
