Chapter One Hundred and Two: Facing Winter
The capital of the Eastern Dynasties
There are a lot of things to talk about in the city today, and it is inevitable that rich people will have to bring up three or two friends, have a meal of flower wine, and talk more about the unexpected young man in Linchun County. Usually, people cook a few more dishes at home, and the neighbors drink a small pot. Slightly drunk, the mother-in-law at home made hot water, washed and washed, and the destination was the small bed.
The post houses in each county, the Wangwu envoys naturally couldn't rest early, and they were all with the warriors who won their own battles, reviewing the means of the opponents they were about to face over and over again, but when they talked about the Venerable disciple, there was no useful information, and they could get a fast speed and great strength.
The gambling houses in the city all want to rely on this five-year competition to harvest a wave of foreign leeks, and they are naturally more attentive than others. In the night, there are constantly spies running one by one, for fear of missing any information and opening a plate that may not necessarily make money.
The Yang family doesn't care about this, they are full of wine and food, what can they do if they don't sleep honestly? Yang Tianchen also began to be unwilling to lay on the floor in peace and stability, grinding and soaking, or lying on the same bed with Yang Xiaoru, doing nothing, and sleeping peacefully with him.
A light and shadow, already under the moonlight, ran through most of the Eastern Dynasties.
Jiang Chunqing is still afraid of death, what Jiang Bufu said, he must believe it, Lan Qu is definitely dead. But again, he is not at peace in his heart, after all, the scar on his chest has followed him for more than a thousand years.
The waterhole in Gushan Town, he carefully investigated for an hour, and he could catch the faint residual demonic energy. There is no Lan Qu's breath, but the means of the demon saint, if he doesn't want to be discovered, it is easy.
Black Magic Forest, any place Yang Tianchen walked through, he didn't let it go, there was nothing special.
In a flash, but in a quarter of an hour, Shi Tancheng appeared at his feet.
In the east chamber of the Tang Mansion, the big pit left by the Lianli branch, Tang Wenze deliberately kept it as a sauvenir. Jiang Chunqing frowned and fell, naturally feeling a trace of the breath of the wolf clan. I wanted to catch the person who had the deepest contact with Yang Tianchen, but as soon as he arrived at the door, a completely unconcealed coercion was detected by the cautious him.
"The Great Sage of the Demon Clan?" Jiang Chunqing stopped his figure, he was not startled, his eyes were squinted, and his mind was heavy, "It is the personal object of the Demon Sage of the Wolf Clan, but it is not Lan Qu! This young man is really deeply involved with the wolf clan!"
After hesitating again and again, Jiang Chunqing still did not make a rash move, but left Shitan City. Fly to the capital, you can go halfway, but turn back, towards the lonely mountain town that you have been to at the beginning. When he left again, there was a sleeping woman beside him, unaware.
In the void, a man with a handsome face, strolling leisurely, has been watching Jiang Chunqing, who has been busy since he met King Jiang Wei from Lonely Mountain, but the latter is unaware.
Watch the latter fly into the capital with a mortal. The man walked out of the void and stood out of thin air, his sword eyebrows locked.
"Yang Tianchen, the Lord doesn't care about you, but I really want to get rid of this hidden danger of you...... Forget it, no matter whether this rat wants to kill you or not, the Heavenly Dao will not keep you, and I don't have to do this superfluous thing. Muttering to himself, the man looked into the distance, "Lord, what do you think?"
Early in the morning, everyone in the Yang family packed up.
The Linchun County Guard was happy, but he was also afraid that Yang Tianchen would be scared again, so he ordered someone to pick him up early. Before dawn, in front of the Yang family's small shop, there were eight taels of magnificent carriages.
But the Yang family who went out was startled, and listened to the leader who came forward with a smile and explained the intention, Yang Dingtian suddenly smiled and hurriedly thanked him.
People who practice martial arts, when they come to the capital, who doesn't want to have more face, swaggering into the carriage in the envious eyes of the neighbors.
Yang Tianchen sat crookedly in the carriage, looking complacent, not worried about the competition at all. It's not that I'm arrogant and think that anyone can win, it's just that what if I lose, make an example of the big guys, I tried my best, and the opposite ones have earned back, and I should be rewarded, or I will be rewarded.
"Why aren't you worried at all?" Yang Xiaoru, who was still wearing men's clothes, couldn't help but be curious when she looked at her younger brother like this.
Yang Tianchen smiled.
"What are you worried about, I'll win if I can win, no, I'll lose a little bit better, the county keeper won't blame, I'm afraid I'm going to be happier." β
"Xiao Chen, don't work too hard, I'm restless when I wake up in the morning, you must not get hurt. β
Hearing this, Yang Tianchen raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile, "Are we going to get married, my sister is a little excited?"
"Don't interrupt! I'm telling the truth. β
"Don't worry, sister, I'm going to marry you in a month, and I won't risk killing you, this month, I'll be honest. I'll compete later, and if I encounter someone who is powerful, I'll admit defeat with both hands! Anyway, just ask our county guard to give me some money. β
"That's best, I don't need you to be a young genius, I just want you to be safe. β
In the martial arts arena, there was a lot of voice. Many gambling houses in the vicinity specially opened a plate for Yang Tianchen's accident, shouting at everyone to bet!
The Yang family arrived at their seats and sat down. No matter what the people who came to the gambling house said, they just didn't buy it today. It's just because Yang Tianchen said, "I won't do my best, maybe I'll admit defeat!"
Yang Dingtian doesn't have to ask Yang Tianchen to fight to the death to win, now, the most important thing is that this kid is safe and sound, it doesn't matter if he wins or loses.
When it comes to the essence of the competition, it will not be like the performance of the previous three days, and everyone on the field will do their best, and it is inevitable that someone will be seriously injured. Of course, with the referee watching, there will be no loss of life.
There are only three people in Linchun County, and they can have a bye today, but everyone wants to see Yang Tianchen's true ability, so with everyone's concerted efforts, Yang Tianchen has become the only person in Linchun County who will play today.
After saying a lot of nonsense at the beginning, Yang Tianchen was drowsy. I felt someone pushing me on the side, so I opened my eyes.
"Hehe, Tianchen Shaoxia, it's time for you to play. The military envoy grinned and said with a smile.
"So fast?"
"Hehe, you're the first to play today, against the ninth man in Treading Wind County. The military envoy said, "That person's strength is not as good as Liu Cunfeng, you will definitely be able to win and win glory for our Linchun County!"
Hearing this, Yang Tianchen shrugged his shoulders and said silently in his heart.
"Don't get your hopes up. β
Stand up and walk to the ring. It's still the referee's clichΓ©, but today I didn't say anything to look down on, but looked at him a few more times.
A man of his size stood opposite, with a delicate face and a long sword in his hand, quite a scholarly temperament. Yang Tianchen knew his name, Lu bowed.
Lu bowed to Yang Tianchen and bowed.
"Yang Shaoxia surprised us all yesterday! Today, I have the honor to ask for advice, and I don't want anything else, I just hope that Yang Shaoxia can go all out. β
Yang Tianchen saluted and said with a smile, "Yesterday, it was Brother Liu's carelessness that allowed me to win opportunistically." Brother Lu is afraid that he won't give me this opportunity, and he will try his best to lose less embarrassed. β
"Draw your sword!" Lu bowed and said, raised his hand and drew his sword, and attacked in an instant.
Yang Tianchen's eyes lit up, "Sure enough, I don't want to give a chance." β
On the side of the figure, he deftly dodged, holding a hundred slashes and slashing his backhand.
Lu bowed unhurriedly, raised his sword to block it, jumped forward, stepped aside, and looked at Yang Tianchen in surprise.
"Yang Shaoxia, if you don't pull out your sword, you look down on you?"
"Brother Lu misunderstood, my knife is fake, it looks like this, the scabbard is the blade, no need to pull it out. β
Hearing this, Lu bowed his eyes, and smiled slightly, "Okay, Yang Shaoxia, don't blame you for taking advantage of you!"
The two met again, although they couldn't show the "Ten Thousand Miles of Divine Technique", but Yang Tianchen's speed and strength were still not weaker than the latter, back and forth, on the premise that the other party did not use supernatural powers, he did not suffer.
On the stands, a pair of old and resolute eyes were staring at Yang Tianchen at the moment.
"Don't draw the knife? Jiang Chunqing's eyes were cloudy, and until now, he wanted to finally confirm whether there would be the momentum that made him chill back then after Bai was cut out of the sheath, but now Yang Tianchen seemed unwilling to expose it, which surprised him.
"Whew!"
In front of the stands, there was a burst of exclamations at the same time.
It turned out that Lu Gongxing and Yang Tianchen fought with swords for more than ten moves, but they didn't see that they had the slightest advantage, so they changed their strategy and found an opportunity, when the two of them had the wrong weapons, they raised their palms, and the cyan vitality suddenly burst out, directly taking Yang Tianchen's lower abdomen.
has already used supernatural means, Yang Tianchen punched to resist, but his flesh and blood, the realm of flesh and skin, how can he resist the supernatural power with his physical body, this time it will definitely abolish his arm.
I thought that I would be able to seriously injure the latter, and victory would not be far away, but who knew that Yang Tianchen hit his fist with his palm, and suddenly let out a piercing thunder. Lu Gongxing's eyes froze, unbelievable.
The moment the two touched, the golden thunder burst into flames, and it was extremely dazzling.
"Boom!" a loud explosion sounded, and smoke and dust rose from the ring.
The two figures shot out backwards from each other.
In the stands, after all the spectators exclaimed, they all stared at the ring with wide eyes.
Yang Tianchen held a hundred slashes in his hand, and slammed them heavily on the ground, drawing a long mark, which stabilized his body. Secretly hid the hand that cast the Thunder God Fist, and kept trembling.
A series of slender wounds appeared in the palm, and the sting of the lightning burning, the pain was really painful!
Looking at the opponent, I saw Lu bowing and rowing out, discharging his strength improperly, his feet kept retreating, he still fell, and rolled on the ground a few times.
propped himself up and looked at Yang Tianchen in disbelief.
"Poof!" a churn in his chest and a mouthful of blood spat out. The latter was unexpected, making him completely defenseless, and the moment Lei Yuan's divine power touched his palm, it was like a living thing, straight to his body. Wounded in one blow.
"The skin and flesh realm can also show magical powers?" Lu Gongxing was shocked in his heart. His face was pale, and seeing that Yang Tianchen didn't seem to have any injuries, he stood up calmly, and Lu Gongxing hesitated.
Although he was injured, outsiders saw that he vomited blood, but it was not a big problem, especially the strength to fight. It's just that now, he can't figure out Yang Tianchen, and he doesn't want to let himself really be hit hard.
Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Lu Gongxing got up and looked at Yang Tianchen.
"Yang Shaoxia is really extraordinary, I have seen it below! The magic power just now is unexpected, and it is extraordinary! I just don't know how many Yang Shaoxia have such a method?"
When Yang Tianchen heard this, his brain turned, and he smiled, "It's a lot!"
Lu Gongxing shook his head with a wry smile and said.
"It's not unjust to lose! Choose me to test the young man, it's really not qualified. Alas~ But there is no way, the task is here, since I can stand up, then I have to fight, I still have to learn the many methods of Shaoxia, I hope Yang Shaoxia's subordinates will be merciful!"
After saying that, Lu Gongxing clenched his long sword, sank down, and his vitality overflowed, obviously about to start desperately.
Seeing this, Yang Tianchen couldn't help sighing, "I'm not scared, it's troublesome!"
Lu bowing's eyes were sharp, his feet touched the ground, and the whole person burst out in an instant, attacking Yang Tianchen directly.
"I throw in the towel!"
A shout was heard.
The martial arts field was silent, and Lu bowed and couldn't help but stop, looking at Yang Tianchen who was standing in a daze and holding one hand above his head in confusion, I don't know why.
"If you don't fight, you won't fight, I'll admit defeat!" Yang Tianchen saw that no one was reacting, and he couldn't help but look to the side, and the referee, who was also stunned, said again.
"Admit defeat? Yang Tianchen, you, are you serious?" the referee couldn't believe his ears and stammered.
"Well, throw in the towel!"
Lu Gongxing frowned, looked at Yang Tianchen and asked suspiciously, "Yang Shaoxia, why is this?
"Brother Lu, don't always misunderstand me. Yang Tianchen said with a bitter face, "You have a task, and the county guard of our family also gave me an order!"
As soon as these words came out, countless colleagues turned their eyes to the confused Lord Wang, who sat on the chair and looked at Yang Tianchen who raised his hand to admit defeat in the same surprise.
"My county keeper said, just have fun, don't get hurt, win or lose, he doesn't care. Linchun County does not rely on this arrangement. Brother Lu's means are not weak, if he really wants to win or lose, I don't know the bottom in my heart, and the injury is certain, so I listen to the adults of my family, and I don't compare. β
"My lord, did you say this to the young man of Tianchen?" Hearing this, the military envoy on the side was puzzled, and looked at the county guard and asked.
Lord Wang pursed his lips, in front of so many years of officials, how could he not understand this little thing? He smiled bitterly in his heart, "This Yang Tianchen didn't want to fight, but he came up with such a trumped-up reason." Give him steps, but it is difficult for him to refuse. β
"Hmm!" Lord Wang nodded, acknowledging the matter.
"Adults are open-minded, and their subordinates admire!"
"Linchun County vs. Treading Wind County, Treading Wind County wins!" the referee pouted, and walked up to the stage with dissatisfaction to announce the result.
"Match-fixing!"
"Match-fixing!"
"Phew~"
The atmosphere was enthusiastic, and the audience didn't buy it anymore and shouted loudly.
"What are you doing with this Yang Tianchen, collect the black money!" The spectators who relied on the Yang family knew that Yang Tianchen belonged to this family, and looked at the Yang family at the moment, and said dissatisfied.
"Salty and don't worry about radishes, our family is disdainful, what do you care?"
Yang Tianchen didn't care, he was about to leave with a hundred slashes on his back.
Suddenly, a terrifying aura rushed towards Yang Tianchen, and in an instant, his heart trembled, and every cold hair of the latter was desperately heralding danger.
The three-color heavenly fire in his heart swayed suddenly, Yang Tianchen was shocked, the aura around his body was surging rapidly, and he couldn't care about anything else, six phantoms flashed, and the whole person suddenly disappeared in place. Under the purple mansion, no one can see clearly.
Reappeared, Yang Tianchen had already landed in the center of the ring elsewhere, and the two who were fighting stopped at the same time and quickly retreated.
Yang Tianchen was short of breath, and with one hand behind his back, he nervously held Bai Slash. In the fantasy dream, he has experienced life and death, and he is familiar with that feeling. At the moment just now, he was sure that if he hadn't dodged away, he would definitely be a dead corpse now, and the fire in his heart would be extinguished, and the relics would not be able to save him.
His eyes were fixed on the place he was in just now, there was nothing, and on the ring, there was only Lu Gongxing who was still in shock.
"You are Yang Tianchen?"
A vicissitudes of life suddenly came from behind him.
Yang Tianchen's heart trembled, and cold sweat broke out. But he couldn't make any movements, as if he was being pressed to the ground.
Everyone looked at Yang Tianchen and the old man behind him, all of them were shocked.
Few people can grasp how Yang Tianchen appeared in the ring, and no one can see how the old man behind him appeared.
The players in the ring all stopped, looked at the old man who didn't have any vitality fluctuations, and then looked at the motionless referee on the side.
Two figures flew in.
Yan returned to Jiang Chunqing's body and knelt down.
Du Xinfeng stood behind the old man and shouted respectfully, "Master." β
Yan Gui is very famous, he is the mainstay of the warriors of the Eastern Dynasty, and it is already the realm of the Venerable Venerable, and few people don't know it. And such a person of high status knelt in front of the mysterious old man at this moment.
"The old prince knelt down?" In the royal stand, Jiang Yi, Jiang Cheng and the others all stood up in surprise, in disbelief.
Something big is going to happen.
Jiang Weiguo frowned, said something to the old eunuch beside him, and asked him to leave.
The old eunuch walked out of the stands, raised his voice, and shouted, "Your Majesty has an order, the competition will be suspended, and the competition will be repeated on another day, and everyone will leave the field in an orderly manner." β
When several royal disciples heard this, they couldn't help but turn their heads to look at Jiang Weiguo, who was uncertain, "Father, what about us?"
"Let's all stay. β
"Yes!"
No one dared to speak anymore, quietly looking at the old man standing in the field.
Driven by the guards in the field, the arena of tens of thousands of people was empty in a moment. No one dared to stay longer, but none of the people from the Yang family left, and their own disciples were still present, how could they go?
There was silence in the field, and the huge force that trapped Yang Tianchen suddenly withdrew, and as soon as his body was loosened, Yang Tianchen did not hesitate, took a step back, and distanced himself from the old man who made him feel frightened.
"Little Lord calm down, calm down!" a voice came into his mind.
"Hundred slashes?"
"Boy, this is a warrior who has returned to the virtual realm, don't panic. Qianwen said aloud at the same time.
It was as if the two of them had already appeared when Yang Tianchen felt the crisis just now, but the old man was too close and didn't dare to speak out.
"Return to the void master!?" Yang Tianchen was secretly shocked when he heard this. But the appearance of thousands of questions also made him feel a lot more at ease.
"Ancestor, the soul-moistening elixir was obtained by accident by my apprentice, and it is definitely not stolen. Yan Gui lowered his head and said, "Tianchen, the ancestor is here for the soul elixir, if the treasure is really in your hands, hurry up and hand it over, and return it to the original owner." β
Yang Tianchen frowned, he already had several guesses in his heart just now, and when he heard what Yan Gui said, as he guessed, it was the soul moisturizing elixir that was the fault, and he couldn't help but feel distressed.
Just as he was about to speak, he heard the person behind the old man say first, "The body technique that this young man performed just now is unique to the thief family surnamed Tao, how can this be explained?" Master, this young man and the thief must be ......."
Before he finished speaking, he saw the old man raise his hand and interrupt Du Xinfeng's words.
Looking at Yang Tianchen, the heavy pressure hit the latter again, "Yang Tianchen, where is the soul moisturizing elixir?"
Yang Tianchen's mind was racing, facing a martial artist who had returned to the Void Realm, he knew that any slippery head would be in vain, and the Soul Moisturizing Elixir would definitely not be able to keep it.
With a flick of his fingers, a jade bottle appeared in his hand, Yang Tianchen held it high above his head, and sent it to the old man with a respectful attitude.
"Hui Tuas, this is the only treasure on the kid's body, it was indeed obtained by chance in a mysterious waterhole in his hometown, and I don't know what this thing is. β
"Ancestor, you know Tianchen's life, there is absolutely no chance to steal the elixir, and please let my disciple go. Yan Gui said.
Jiang Chunqing ignored it, and out of thin air, the jade bottle flew into his hand, and he didn't open it to look at it, naturally knowing that it was a good soul-moisturizing elixir.
Yang Tianchen lowered his head, didn't dare to speak, and let him put away the elixir.
Jiang Chunqing looked at him, then at Yan Gui, who was kneeling on the side, and sneered, "Hmph, your disciple?"
