Text Season 5: Cold Gun Ruthless_ "Phantom Spear (5)" Chapter 22: A strong enemy is coming
Last time, I said: Jiang Feng overslept for the first time in the morning, and after being woken up by Tan Yuan, he still felt groggy in his head, there have been too many things recently, excessive physical exertion and the cultivation of Moyang internal strength has reached a certain level, and it takes more energy to maintain, Jiang Feng also feels a little unbearable. On the other hand, at the foot of Qingxu Mountain, the mysterious man in white was ready to go up the mountain after eating breakfast, he was full of murderous energy, and the person who came was not good! On Qingxu Mountain, although Du Shaoyang was punished and confined to prison, he was still concerned about today's sword competition.
After hearing the evening drum and morning bell of the Qingxu Palace, except for the disciples guarding the mountain gate, all of them gathered outside the gate of the Qingxu Palace and stood by. Taixu Dao Chang looked at all the disciples, and his heart was also very comforted, he subconsciously looked at his right hand, but did not see the familiar figure, his expression couldn't help but be a little lost, but quickly returned to normal, he stared at the front, and saw that everyone had gathered and stood up, and only then did he signal Baoyuan and Shou one or two disciples to maintain order on the scene, so that everyone could listen to him quietly.
Taixu Daoist held the dust whisk in his right hand, raised his left hand slightly, and showed a kind smile on his face, he said: "All the disciples of the Qingxu Sect, it is really a long time since I have summoned you to listen to my old man's nonsense, haha! However, today is also very likely to be the last time my old man will lecture you, so you must keep in mind what the old man said today, and you must not slack off." Bao Yuan couldn't help but be startled when he heard this, and glanced back at Taixu Dao Chang. Taixu Dao Chang pretended not to see him, but just said: "Today, there will be a guest of honor who will go up to our Qingxu Mountain, people are guests from afar, we can't refuse others thousands of miles away, everyone must be polite to each other, not to look like people, and cause more trouble." After hearing this, Bao Yuan thought in his heart: The person the master was referring to was clearly the white-haired demon boy, he was a strong enemy of our Qingxu faction, how could he treat that person as a guest to entertain, this really puzzled me. Taixu Dao Chang said again: "That guest is a senior disciple of Shandong Yujian Gate, swordsmanship is extremely profound, to this day, I don't hide much from you, he has a more important purpose to go up the mountain today, that is, to compete with us in the sword, our Qingxu faction is a swordsmanship faction in the martial arts, which is not bad." But our Qingxu sect is even more of a sect of cultivation, and since we are cultivators, we must put down this competitive heart first. We can't take the initiative to make a move, if we are helpless to shoot in the end, win, there is nothing to be complacent, practicing the sword is to strengthen the body, cultivating the Tao is self-cultivation, we must deeply understand this; if we lose, there is nothing to lose, victory is not arrogant or discouraged, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, we cultivators must be able to take it, can put it down, do you know?" Although the disciples of the Qingxu Sect also disagreed with each other in their hearts, they regarded the Taixu Dao Elder as an immortal elder, and naturally said in unison: "Yes, the disciple knows!"
Daoist Taixu nodded with satisfaction, he stroked his white beard, his tone was very softened, and said: "Old Dao can tell you now that the guest who is going up the mountain today is the white-haired demon boy who is boiling in the Central Plains martial arts during this time, I don't know if you have heard of it." When the white-haired demon boy was mentioned, the pot immediately exploded, and all the disciples began to talk about it, which is enough to prove how famous the white-haired demon boy is in the rivers and lakes, and how sensational it is. Shouyi stepped forward and said loudly: "Please be quiet for a while, the head of the sect has not finished speaking." The disciples talked for a while before they closed their mouths.
The Taixu Dao Elder dusted the dust in his hand slightly, and solemnly announced: "Since people have come all the way, we must not shirk this sword competition, and this disciple who fights on behalf of our sect, Lao Dao has already been selected." Although everyone knew that Du Shaoyang was locked up by the head of the sect, when they heard the heavy responsibility of fighting the sword on behalf of the sect, their first reaction was to think of Du Shaoyang. But after a while, the Taixu Dao Leader said unexpectedly: "The disciple who represents our Qingxu Sect to fight the sword is, Bao Yuan. Immediately the discussion began again.
A disciple named Yinle whispered: "What's the matter? Didn't we see Senior Brother Shaoyang before, he was practicing swords so hard? Why is it not Senior Brother Shaoyang who is fighting on behalf of our Qingxu faction, but suddenly becomes Senior Brother Baoyuan? It's really a bit incredible!" Yinshu next to him said unhappily after hearing this: "Eh, Senior Brother, what are you talking about, the head of the sect personally selected Senior Brother Baoyuan, is there anything wrong?" You must know that this white-haired demon boy is not an ordinary swordsmanship master, since he appeared on the rivers and lakes, it is said that he has defeated many sword masters, this time he came to our Qingxu Mountain, but it was rumored that the rivers and lakes were praised as the pinnacle duel. Since it is such an important sword competition, it is natural that disciples with higher seniority need to come out to meet the enemy, which is why our Qingxu faction looks up to others, and Senior Brother Baoyuan has been learning swords with the head for so many years, he is only relatively low-key on weekdays, in fact, his swordsmanship must be above Senior Brother Shaoyang. Yin Le said disapprovingly: "How is it possible, although Senior Brother Shaoyang is a little uninhibited, but his superb swordsmanship is recognized by our sect, except for the head of the sect, I am afraid that he is the most powerful, in the face of an enemy like the white-haired demon boy, it must be Senior Brother Shaoyang." Yinshu sneered: "Don't scream so hot about Senior Brother Shaoyang, no matter how powerful Senior Brother Shaoyang is, he is now a guilty person, and the head of the house will not let him out, he is all locked up, how can he still fight the enemy? Haha, you are really telling a big joke." After hearing this, Yinle just said coldly: "Hmph, let's see." When Senior Brother Baoyuan was beaten by the white-haired demon boy, you knew how wrong it was to not send Senior Brother Shaoyang to fight. The two were not convinced, and their heads were twisted to one side.
Taixu Daoist whispered to Shouyi: "Shouyi, don't go to the mountain gate, stay outside Shaoyang's door, guard Shaoyang well, and don't let him come out." Shouyi frowned slightly, and asked: "Master, the fault of the last incident is not entirely on Senior Brother Shaoyang, he has been punished for several days of confinement, it's almost over, I think, it's better for me to let him come out now, whether he is on the top or not, the major events in the sect, as a senior disciple in the sect, how can he stay out of the matter?" Taixu Daoist immediately vetoed, and Zhengse said: "No, Shaoyang, he can't come out, Shouyi, you have to take good care of Shaoyang." Today's battle, it is not trivial, the Qingxu faction can lose, I can die as a teacher, but you young and promising disciples must survive, the Qingxu faction needs someone to inherit, and the mystery of swordsmanship needs to retain some essence, this white-haired demon boy is looking for someone to compete with the sword everywhere, I am afraid that it is to steal the essence of other people's swordsmanship to strengthen his own strength, if he is a righteous knight, our Qingxu faction can be generous and teach each other, but he has not done anything chivalrous and righteous, just for his own selfish desires, there will be opportunities in the future, while he has not yet cultivated the climate, you have the responsibility and obligation to eliminate harm for the Central Plains martial arts, just like my senior brother Mo Feng Dao back thenใ Shouyi, you are the most sensible person, and now that I have told you so much, can you understand the intentions of the teacher?" Shouichi nodded firmly and said, "Yes, Master, you are really well-intentioned, and Shouyi is short-sighted. However, in that case, wouldn't it be better if we refused to fight this battle?" Taixu Daoist said with a smile: "Shouyi, there are some things in the rivers and lakes that we can't be okay if we refuse. He is sending a warlike letter to challenge today, if we refuse, don't laugh at the people of the rivers and lakes, with the character of the white-haired demon boy, he will never give up, if things get to that point, it will become difficult to control. With that person's martial arts, it shouldn't be difficult to infiltrate our Qingxu Sect and kill a few low-level disciples, and I don't want to see anyone get hurt. No one knows what the white-haired demon boy is thinking now, instead of being secretly visited after refusing, it is better to promise him a fight, so that it is fair to us and to him. Shouyi lowered his head and thought for a while, he said lightly: "Okay, Master, don't worry, I'll leave you and Senior Brother Baoyuan in front." As for the safety of Senior Brother Shaoyang and the Qingxu faction, I will definitely do my best to do a good job. Taixu Daoist looked at Shouyi, really satisfied, he waved his sleeves lightly, Shou nodded and saluted, and left quickly......
