Liuyun Sword Sect 114.Iron Sword Gorge
Lu Chen flew forward rapidly, his toes suddenly turned, his left arm was tense and bulging, his internal strength was agitated, his fist was slammed away, and his 120,000 jin strength exploded with all his strength.
Boom, boom, in an instant, the two fists collided together in a swift manner, the air vibrated violently, centered on the two of them, spreading out in all directions, and the snow on the ground flew all over the sky.
One of them jerked backwards, gliding against the ground for some distance before coming to a stop, looking rather embarrassed.
The audience was shocked, and when they looked at it, it was Jia Tao. Jia Tao, who ranked 37th like a hidden dragon, actually lost, which really surprised many people. If this matter is spread out, it will not be long before the ranking of the Hidden Dragon List will definitely be recompiled.
Jia Tao looked at Lu Chen not far away in disbelief, his expression could not hide his consternation. I never expected that I was actually knocked away by the opponent's punch, could it be that the other party also cultivates the fruit fist method?
"Brother!" Seeing the scene in front of her, Jia Qing was dumbfounded, her brother who was so powerful actually lost, and he lost in the hands of an unknown boy, and his brain was a little foggy.
"Concession!" Lu Chen put away his left fist and laughed softly.
Jia Tao stared at the other party with a solemn expression, and his right hand behind the meeting was still trembling, one can imagine how strong Lu Chen's punch was. He couldn't believe that he had just lost, and that he had lost to the opponent's fist.
"Have you also learned boxing?" Jia Tao couldn't help but say.
"No, it's just learning and selling with you, to be honest, your boxing skills are very strong, stronger than all the opponents I've met before!" Lu Chen shook his head and said truthfully.
Jia Tao was a little hard to believe: "Impossible, I have been honing my boxing since I was six years old, and I know almost all the boxing techniques in the world, I am improving every year now, I can't lose to you, and besides, you are just an acquired martial artist!"
"The facts are in front of you, do you want to say more?" Lu Chen smiled lightly, to be honest, Jia Tao's strength is indeed very strong, his fist is powerful and domineering, I am afraid that he has reached the point of reaching the peak, if it is not for his advantage in relying on the black scale arm, it is not so easy to defeat the other party.
"So I have a question for you?"
"Say!"
Jia Tao squinted his eyes and asked, "When you just fought, did you see through my boxing skills?"
"No, there is no flaw in your boxing skills, and besides, I don't dare to be interested in boxing techniques, the reason why I can win you is that my strength occupies a great advantage!" Lu Chen was slightly stunned and explained with a light smile.
One force will drop ten times, no matter how clever your boxing skills are, directly use absolute power to knock you over, in the face of absolute power, any skill is just a joke, Jia Tao lost a little aggrieved.
"I see!" Jia Tao nodded thoughtfully.
Lu Chen put away the soft sword, walked to the bonfire with a light smile, and said again: "It's not too early, let's rest! Success or failure is a common thing in soldiers, Brother Jia won't be so shaken!"
Jia Tao hugged his fists and said: "I have been taught, Brother Lu, I underestimated you too much before, and we have a chance to compete again!"
"No problem, wait until I escort Master Jia out of Qingzhou, and teach me at any time!" Lu Chen laughed loudly in the distance, for him, although Jia Tao was on the Hidden Dragon List, for him, it was not enough to pose a threat.
Jia Tao turned around and walked back to the tent, no joy or sorrow, her sister followed and chattered beside her, saying non-stop: "Brother, you just admit defeat like this!"
"Shut up, this matter is over, and you will have to mess around in the future!" Jia Tao shouted in a low voice, it could be seen that he was very angry in his heart, he was the thirty-seventh genius on the Hidden Dragon List, and he was really unwilling to lose to a smile that did not turn around. There were so many people watching, he didn't want others to see what he thought, he was calm on the surface, but in his heart he was trying his best to suppress his anger.
Jia Qing pursed his mouth aggrievedly, and when he saw his eldest brother's expressionless appearance, he couldn't help but feel a sense of irritability in his heart.
By the campfire, Lu Chenpan sat next to him, put his sword on his lap, and meditated against the cold night wind.
"Brother Lu, you are so powerful, you actually defeated that Jia Tao, didn't you see his sister's bitter gourd face, oops, it's really relieving!" Han Wenqing sat by the bonfire and said with a smile.
Lu Chen's eyes stared at the bonfire, and said softly: "Don't say a word, then Jia Tao is also a high-minded and arrogant person, let's go all the way, don't hurt the harmony!"
"Lu Chen, good job!" Murong Ziyun also walked over at this time, with a smile on her face, like a pear blossom blooming in the snow, and her pale cyan skirt was blown by dinner, which was beautiful.
Lu Chen shook his head and said: "Born in a second-rate sect, to have such strength, Jia Tao should not be underestimated, to be able to get to this day, he must have paid a lot!"
"That's right, there are so many geniuses in the Kyushu Continent, and the Hidden Dragon List has only recorded a total of one hundred and eight, the competition is extremely fierce, and being able to be among them already shows his strength1" Teng Qinglei sighed.
Among the younger generation that Lu Chen has fought against, Jia Tao's strength is considered to be in the upper middle class, and in the contest just now, he only exerted half of his strength at most.
The night passed quickly, peacefully, there were no bandits to cause trouble, and the convoy did not need to rest.
The morning sun rises in the east, and the convoy is on its way normally.
Since Jia Tao and Lu Chen competed last night, the atmosphere of the team has obviously improved a lot, and Jia Tao and her sister have not come out to say some mean words again!
After the winter, it snowed for several days, and the world was covered in silver. It was freezing cold, and a lot of snow fell on many trees, and as soon as the sun came out, it began to melt.
After the snow melted, the official road became muddy, not at all as easy to walk as before, and the carriage had heavy loads, and many of the wheels showed signs of damage, so naturally the convoy was much slower.
"Brother Lu, if you continue to move forward for dozens of miles, you will be the Iron Knife Gorge!" Han Wenqing raised his whip and chased after him, asking.
Lu Chen looked at the two towering mountains in the distance, the top of the mountain was covered with clouds and mist, and the faint sound of an eagle's cry came. He said calmly: "Well, according to the current speed of the convoy, it should be possible to arrive at dusk!"
"It is rumored that there is a lot of chaos near the Iron Knife Gorge, there are often bandits haunting, robbing passing merchants, acting very arrogantly, we escort so many things, in case we encounter bandits, we can't run, do we want to take a detour?" Han Wenqing looked worried.
Murong Ziyun also came to Lu Chen's side, and said worriedly: "Han Wenqing is right, there is only one road leading to Baima County in the Iron Knife Canyon, and the mountains on both sides are steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack, if there are bandits ambushing on it, it will definitely form a very unfavorable situation for us!"
"Your fears are correct, but if we take a detour, we will have to walk back for at least three days and jump over the fast-flowing Zi River to reach Whitehorse. You've heard from the housekeeper before, they're going to rush to the border between Qingzhou and Yangzhou in half a month!" he said slowly.
"Then what if there is trouble?" This group of Sword Sect disciples was assisted by Lu Chen, Han Wenqing, Murong Ziyun, and Teng Qinglei. If Jia Tianpeng was not escorted out of Qingzhou this time, not only would it affect their reputation, but the four of them would not be able to return to the Sword Sect.
Lu Chen had a calm face, glanced at the convoy that was struggling to move forward on the side, and thought to himself, "The day before yesterday, there was a night thief who sneaked into the inn, and looked through the road map of the housekeeper, and he must know the route of the convoy very well, and the Iron Knife Gorge is the only way to go, those with bad intentions will definitely not let go of the great opportunity, it seems that it is better to find a way!"
At this moment, there was a sudden shout and scolding in front of me.
"Stop, don't run!"
"Little bunny, where are you going!"
I saw that on the official road not far away, a richly dressed young man was running the muddy official road, his robe was stained with mud, and his expression was extremely frightened.
The young man was followed by five or six men, all of whom were fierce and vicious, with faces full of flesh, holding big knives and chasing after them, as if they had encountered a bandit.
"Oh no, I'm going to die if these bandits catch me!" the young man rushed forward with all his might, stumbling, not knowing how many heels he had fallen, and was overjoyed when he saw a convoy approaching not far ahead.
When the thieves in the back saw this scene, they laughed, and their eyes were full of teasing and hideous.
