Chapter 17: Heroes Save Beauty
It is rumored that a hundred years ago, Jiang Jingci, a genius of the Jiang family in Immortal Emperor City, broke through the Heavenly Tribulation Realm in this city, and refined a Thunder Tribulation Knife with the power of the Heavenly Tribulation and gave it to Li Wenbin, the assassin of the Heavenly Tribulation, to apologize.
Since then, the sword city has become famous, many monks have come here to see the prestige of the thunder knife, and later Li Wenbin set up a cloud dragon flag at the head of the knife city, and stipulated that only those who have won the flag can enter the assassination history to see the thunder robbery knife.
In the past 100 years, there have been only a few successful people who have captured the flag. Since then, there have been legends that the power of the Heavenly Tribulation on the Thunder Tribulation Knife can help the monks of the Yuandao Realm to comprehend the Heavenly Tribulation and improve their cultivation, and it is precisely because of this that the Battle of Capture the Flag in the Sword City has become more widely spread in the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
Yan Jingchen still couldn't resist Zhang Daohong's agitation after all, and the two of them arrived in the Sword City at dusk.
found an inn called Xianyuan in the city to stay, Zhang Daohong couldn't wait to pull Yan Jingchen to go outside for a walk, and said that he would inspect the customs of Dao City.
The city is built by the water, and there is a lake in the city, and the lake is called Rouge. Liudi Road by the lake is the most prosperous street in the city, and there are pavilions and pavilions on both sides of the city.
The pedestrians who came and went on Liudi Road mainly talked about two things, one was the just-concluded final election of the Immortal Emperor City, and the other was the matter of capturing the Cloud Dragon Banner.
"Let's go to the city to take a look at the Cloud Dragon Banner?" Yan Jingchen grabbed Zhang Daohong, who was scurrying around, and pointed to the brightly lit city gate tower in the distance.
"The guards there are at least the cultivators of the Enlightenment Realm, if you go at this time, if you are regarded as a person who captures the flag, you must not let those guards be killed, or wait for the time to capture the flag, and it is not too late to go and take a look. ”
"With my cultivation, who would treat me as the one who captured the flag, I see that you just see that there are so many beautiful women on this street, and you are reluctant to leave, and you want to find my sister-in-law. ”
"What's the matter, when I was in Luoyu City, I was forced by the majesty of the old man, I haven't even done a day's smuggling, and I finally came out, how can I not do something to find flowers and ask willows. After Zhang Daohong finished speaking, he plunged into the crowd again.
Yan Jingchen smiled at the corner of his mouth, knowing that Zhang Daohong was strictly controlled by Zhang Sanhu in Luoyu City, he was just talking at this time, and he didn't really mean to look for flowers and ask Liu, so he immediately followed. I thought that the castle tower was there anyway, and it was not too late to see it another day.
Two strangely dressed people walked in the street, one of whom was slender and dressed in a brocade fluff cloak, and at first glance it was a woman, and the woman bowed her head around the veil, so that it was impossible to see her face. Next to her was a fierce and fierce man, and although only his eyes were visible on his face, he could see a scar spreading from the corner of his eye, and he didn't know where it extended.
Wherever the two passed, pedestrians avoided each other. Zhang Daohong excitedly leaned next to Yan Jingchen and patted him on the shoulder, "Look, look, peerless beauty." ”
Yan Jingchen looked in the direction of Zhang Daohong's finger, and he said that he was actually referring to the woman wearing the veil, so he said angrily: "People wear veils, can you see this clearly?"
Zhang Daohong glanced at Yan Jingchen with disdain, and said, "I can't tell you about an elm pimple like you, do you understand temperament, temperament?"
After speaking, he pretended to be natural, ran to the woman's side, stretched out his hand to block her way, stood still with a polite appearance, and was about to speak after he straightened his clothes, but was pushed away by the scar-faced man next to him, and then said in a threatening tone: "Bastard boy won't get out of the way, Hugh blame has no eyes." ”
Yan Jingchen also rushed over at this time, although he felt that Zhang Daohong was a little presumptuous in this matter, but he still chose to stand on the united front with Zhang Daohong in front of the strong enemy.
The smell of gunpowder grew stronger between the three of them, and the battle was about to break out. At this moment, the woman next to her said softly: "Big brother, there are many mortals in the city, if there is a fight, Lord Assassin Shi will be dealt with according to the law." ”
The scar-faced man's facial muscles twitched a few times, the scar on his face was as terrifying as a crawling centipede, and a cold snort came out of his nose, pulling the woman up and squeezing between Yan Jingchen and Zhang Daohong.
Zhang Daohong wanted to rush up and entangle, but was dragged by Yan Jingchen and dragged to an uninhabited alley.
"We might run into bandits this time. Yan Jingchen pressed Zhang Daohong against the wall, making him unable to move.
Hearing Yan Jingchen's words, Zhang Daohong stopped struggling, and asked excitedly, "What have you discovered, tell me quickly." ”
"Just now the woman walked past us and touched me on the wrist. Before Yan Jingchen finished speaking, Zhang Daohong was unwilling, as if he had suffered a big loss.
"Listen to me first. Yan Jingchen pressed Zhang Daohong, who was jumping around, "The woman's hand is tied behind her back, and there is also a problem with that rope, which seems to be able to block the operation of the Dao force." ”
Zhang Daohong couldn't wait to rub his hands, and he didn't know what was going on in his mind. He laughed and said, "It seems that today's 'hero saves beauty' is inevitable." ”
Yan Jingchen was speechless when he saw his slightly obscene smile. Then he pulled him out of the alley, and followed the scar man from a distance.
He followed him to a remote alley in the northwest corner of the city, looked around, and then turned and walked into a deserted inn.
Seeing Scarface enter the inn, Zhang Daohong, who was hiding on the roof in the distance, said in a low voice: "This must be a black shop, or who will be idle and have nothing to do to build the inn in the alley." ”
Yan Jingchen put his hand to his mouth and motioned for Zhang Daohong to be silenced. The two quietly walked around to the back of the inn, just in time to see a faint candlelight in one of the inn's rooms.
The two of them hid their breath and slipped under the window of the guest room, listening carefully to the movement in the room.
Scarface's vicious voice came from inside the room: "Hurry up and wipe the prohibition off the storage artifact, or I don't mind ruining a face that has captivated the country and the city." ”
"You untie the rope for me first, I can't run the Dao power, how can I lift the ban on you. ”
"It's not impossible to untie the rope for you, but the treasure on your chick is really powerful, I have to give you a good search first. ”
Then there was the men's obscene laughter and the woman's scolding shouts, Zhang Daohong's anger in his heart couldn't be suppressed for a while, he got up and wanted to break through the window, Yan Jingchen saw that the situation was not good, grabbed his back placket, and dragged him aside.
"I have a plan in mind, do you want to listen to it? ”
Hearing this, Zhang Daohong urged: "Say it quickly, or the woman will be poisoned." ”
"Wait a minute, you go to the front door, just say that you want to stay in the hotel, it's better to make some noise, lure the scar-faced man out, I'll take the opportunity to go in through the window to save the woman. You hand in a few tricks with him and quickly withdraw, with that woman here, he will definitely not chase you. ”
Zhang Daohong thought about it for a moment and asked a question that made people laugh and cry: "Then why can't you go to the front door?"
Yan Jingchen was speechless for a while, thinking that you are here to save the beauty of a hero, and you are obviously going to take advantage.
"Okay, I'll go to the front to make a noise, you save people from the window, remember to move quickly, I don't know how many tricks I can make against him. ”
After agreeing on a plan, the two immediately went their separate ways. Yan Jingchen walked quickly to the front door of the inn, kicked open the door of the inn, and was about to shout, when he found that there was another man standing in the inn.
The man saw Yan Jingchen breaking into the door and knew that it was not good, so he scolded loudly: "Where did the hairy boy get out." ”
Yan Jingchen provoked without showing weakness, "Let me smash your broken shop today!"
The man in charge of the lookout, who seemed to be just a mortal, pulled out a sharp knife from behind the counter with a fierce expression, "Then today is your death." ”
He stabbed with a knife in his hand, and this blow seemed to be full of flaws in Yan Jingchen's eyes. It only used a simple 'primer' to snatch the sharp knife in the man's hand, and stabbed it into the shoulder of the big man with a backhand.
This blow was not fatal, but it brought great pain to Dahan, and this is what Yan Jingchen wanted.
"Lao Guo, you bastard, don't you get into trouble and solve it quickly. The big man covered the knife on his shoulder, shouting, and looked at Yan Jingchen in horror.
Scarface didn't hear anything, and the atmosphere in the inn became a little silent. Yan Jingchen looked around vigilantly, and couldn't help but panic a little in his heart, wondering if his performance was noticed by the scar-faced man.
Bang!
Two doors and windows cracked, and then a figure flew out of the candlelit room, smashing several tables in quick succession before stopping.
Yan Jingchen looked at it, and the person who flew out turned out to be Zhang Daohong, and asked in surprise: "Why were you found out?" ”
Zhang Daohong lay on the ground and complained: "Please bring a mask next time you smash people." When that man saw you, he couldn't have guessed our plan. ”
"Two stinky boys also want heroes to save beauty, it's really overwhelming. The scar-faced man then came out of the room, holding a bronze mirror with a simple style.
"Skylight Mirror!"
The scar-faced man put the bronze mirror on his chest and pinched the magic trick in his hand, and the mirror was suspended as if it had a spirit, and a golden light suddenly shot out.
Yan Jingchen hurriedly pulled up Zhang Daohong, who was still lying on the ground, and jumped away. But the man in charge of the gatekeeper was not so lucky, with his mortal physique, although he was only rubbed by the golden light, he also ended up with a slash in half.
Zhang Daohong gasped and said: "Jingchen, I think we have kicked the iron plate, just now I fought with this ugly monster, it is estimated that he is at least the strength of the three realms of the Dao realm." ”
"So what can you do, you don't want to escape. ”
With the current realm of the two, the chance of winning against a scar-faced man alone is almost zero, but they are all geniuses of a county, so how can they easily admit defeat. Zhang Daohong is also from a famous family, and he has heard of this kind of cross-level battle, so he made a decision immediately.
"You and I cast immortal spells at the same time, and first probe the strength of the opponent. ”
"Jiaolong goes to sea!"
"Soaring!"
In an instant, the two immortal techniques were completed, and Yan Jingchen controlled the blue-black dragon and slammed straight towards the scar-faced man. And Zhang Daohong's magic formed a steamy phoenix, flying above Scarface, and countless crystal raindrops were sprinkled all over the sky.
