Chapter 70: Confrontation
A pot of sake, two side dishes.
Except for Xiang Wentian and Xu Yang, no one else is eligible to serve at the table.
Even Ren Yingying does not have such qualifications.
Although Xiang Wentian was still arrogant, he had nothing else to say about Xu Yang.
There is only one word for service.
This respect is genuine.
Anyone who can defeat a first-class master in the world at the age of eighteen is worthy of winning this respect.
It has nothing to do with identity, status, or wealth.
Just like a literati, if he can write a beautiful essay that covers the whole world when he is a teenager, even if he vomits blood and dies soon after, or if his life is mediocre, he is enough to win the respect of all literati.
And Xu Yang's battle today, in terms of difficulty, is far beyond the literati writing such a strange article.
You must know that over the years, in the scope of the entire rivers and lakes, there are not many people who can beat Xiang Wentian with one move, even if they can barely draw with him.
Xiang Wentian asked himself, only two of the famous people in the rivers and lakes are better than themselves.
The former head of the Cult of God, and the current leader of the Sect, Dongfang is undefeated.
As for the others, even the highly respected Shaolin abbot Master Fang Zheng, the head of Wudang Chongxu Dao who is a master of swordsmanship, or the ambitious Wuyue Sword Sect leader Zuo Lengchan, he has never taken it seriously.
Or their martial arts may be a line higher than him, but he definitely doesn't think that he has no chance of winning.
The duel between the rivers and lakes does not rely only on martial arts.
Today, however, another person has been added to the list of his willing admiration.
A teenager of only eighteen years old.
If someone had told him that before today, I was afraid that he would laugh and slap that man to death.
Even if the joke isn't funny.
But now, Xiang Wentian has to admit that since ancient times, heroes have been teenagers.
Raising his glass, he toasted Xu Yang.
"Respect for that sword. ”
Xu Yang smiled and gave a toast in return.
"Respect the right envoy and escape the heavens. ”
Xiang Wentian laughed.
can escape from the undefeated cage of the East, and he is the only person in the world.
Of course, there is the reason for the undefeated negligence of the East, but if you don't have a high enough martial arts, a smart enough mind, and a grasp of the opportunity, I am afraid that when the opportunity comes, there will be no possibility of escaping the cage.
Xu Yang's words undoubtedly scratched the itch in his heart.
Wine is good wine, but Xu Yang doesn't think so.
He beckoned to Qu Feiyan, and Xiao Nizi walked over angrily, took out a small box, and opened it with a small bottle of wine.
"Drink, drink, you know drink!" scolded softly, she put down her wine, and then stepped back in a huff.
Xiang Wentian was a little surprised.
"This is the granddaughter of Elder Guijiao Qu, and I will take care of it temporarily. Xu Yang seemed to see his doubt, and said: "Elder Qu is good at everything, but he is not strict in teaching, and there is no way." ”
Xiang Wentian smiled again.
This was the first time he had seen Xu Yang deflated.
"The name of the wine is 'Five Flowers', which is a rare and good wine, and it is not a good friend who does not give it to drink. Xu Yang said slowly with a narrow smile.
Xiang Wentian just didn't believe it, he had been a good wine since he was a child, and he hadn't tasted any fine wine, not to mention this small bottle of wine, he was afraid that rinsing his mouth would not be enough.
However, seeing Xu Yang solemnly open the cap, a smell of wine mixed with a light floral fragrance suddenly gushed out, which was indeed unforgettable.
"It smells so good. Xiang Wentian took a deep breath, hurriedly picked up the wine glass, and asked Xu Yang to pour a small glass of "Five Flowers Brew" for himself.
Then I couldn't wait to take a sip.
Eccentric.
Xiang Wentian only felt that this wine was soft in his throat and the wine was fragrant, but after entering the abdomen, he was full of wine, and a glass of wine was already slightly drunk.
"This wine is so weird!" Xiang Wentian couldn't care about his manners, picked up the wine jug and poured himself a full glass, and then really began to taste the taste.
Xu Yang was not in a hurry to pour himself wine, "Five Flowers Brew" was actually not precious in his eyes, on the contrary, the secret that the man in front of him who had just been defeated by himself had secrets that Xu Yang urgently needed.
If you spit out the truth after drinking, let him drink a few more glasses, and it doesn't matter.
"To the right, I want to come to Miss Ren has already told you that the purpose of the younger generation is here. ”
Xiang Wen didn't raise his head, so he said: "Don't talk about any seniors and juniors in front of me in the future." You can defeat me with one sword, no matter what the reason, you are already qualified enough to be my senior, but Xiang Mou is not willing to be your junior, not as commensurate as our brothers. ”
Xu Yang smiled and nodded.
In fact, Xiang Wentian is older, and between the Huashan Sect and the Sun and Moon Demon Sect, there is nothing to talk about.
Xiang Wentian said again: "I heard that you also killed the Taibao of Zuo Lengchan's gang of Lao Shizi?"
Xu Yang smiled: "There is no careful calculation, maybe ten, maybe eight." Anyway, Zuo Lengchan is now a loner and no longer a threat. ”
Cocking a thumb, he laughed at Wentian and said, "In this world, you are the first person in the world who can count the thirteen Taibao of the Songshan faction according to ten or eight." ”
Xu Yang laughed with him, and also poured himself a glass of wine, held it in his hand, but did not drink it.
He was thinking about how to open his mouth to the sky.
His question, the other party has avoided answering it positively, does it mean that Xiang Wentian still has doubts about this matter?
What you do on the pole is not a sale.
After tasting it for a long time, he finally drank a small cup of "five-flower brew" to the sky, and the meaning was unfinished, which was very obvious.
"How did you know the whereabouts of Sect Master?" asked Xiang Wentian suddenly.
After taking a sip of wine, Xu Yang said, "Secret." ”
"Even if you want to cooperate with us, you can't tell this secret?" Xiang Wentian seemed to be asking questions, and he seemed to be asking himself.
"A secret is a secret, if the right envoy can't trust the little brother, then don't cooperate. Xu Yang was not worried that Xiang Wentian would not take the bait, and believed that compared to himself, this right-hand envoy was more anxious to save him.
Hole cards, Xu Yang can be more.
Xiang Wentian smiled: "Don't say it, but what do you like me for cooperation? I don't believe that you fancy my martial arts, with your swordsmanship, the world is so big, where can't you go?"
Xu Yang smiled: "Envoy to the right, you should also have your own source of intelligence." You don't know, 'Four Friends of Meizhuang', what are their favorites, right?"
When he heard the words "Four Friends of Meizhuang", Xiang Wentian was sure that the other party was indeed aware of certain things.
Over the years, in order to rescue Ren Xing, Xiang Wentian has planned a lot, and finally found out that Ren Wu Xing was locked up in the dungeon of Meizhuang on the shore of the West Lake, and the people in charge of guarding were the four masters of the Divine Cult known as the "Four Friends of Meizhuang".
Later, in order to rescue him, he did collect some objects that could impress the "Four Friends of Meizhuang".
At this moment, Ren Xing believes that the other party understands this matter deeply, even more than himself.
"Why?"
"What, why?"
"Why do you want to help us and save the next gang leader?"
Xu Yang smiled, took another sip of wine, and then said, "Because I am ambitious." ”
"Oh?" Xiang Wentian smiled, there are many ambitious people in this world, but there are very few who admit it themselves.
The literati paid attention to the stinky habit of subtlety and moderation, and I don't know when it was transmitted to the warriors.
Now in this river and lake, those who have the ability have to politely say that they can be mediocre, and no matter how big their ambitions are, they are only hidden under the shell of the bright and upright.
Contrary to others, Xiang Wentian likes the nickname "Tianwang Laozi" given to him on the rivers and lakes very much, he just wants others to know that he has the ability to do it and does not hide it.
Similarly, in the face of the ambitious Zuo Lengchan, Xiang Wentian did not hate it.
You have ambitions, you just do everything possible to come, if you lose, it means that you have no ability, and if you win, I will give you my life!
This is also the reason why he admired the former head of the Divine Cult, and did not have much ill feeling towards the rebellion and imprisoned the Divine Sect after the undefeated Dongfang.
The fights between them are all according to the rules.
There are no rules, there is no circle, act according to the rules, no matter whether you win or lose, you should admit it.
But the young man in front of him has extremely high martial arts, but he admits that he has ambitions, what does he want to do?
"People are good at being bullied, my Lin family had a peerless master Yuantu Gong a few generations ago, and then it declined rapidly, so that even a bastard like Yu Canghai dared to bully him, which is unbearable. ”
Xiang Wentian nodded, as the Right Envoy of Light who was in charge of some of the substantive affairs of the Divine Sect, he naturally knew all the inside stories on the rivers and lakes.
At that time, Lin Yuantu used a long sword, 72 ways of "evil sword method", 100 single and 8 styles of "turning the sky palm", and 18 "silver feather arrows" to shock the rivers and lakes, and founded the famous Fuwei Dart Bureau.
But for some reason, after Lin Yuantu's death, two generations of Fuwei Dart Board leaders failed to inherit his proud martial arts.
In their hands, the "sword technique of warding off evil spirits" has even become a third-rate martial art that is bullied by others, let alone those disciples of famous families and big factions who have been defeated by Lin Yuantu on the rivers and lakes, even a small Qingcheng faction Yu Canghai dared to bully them, and almost wiped out the full door of the Fuwei Dart Bureau.
Thinking of this, Xiang Wentian couldn't help but ask: "...... is that sword technique today?"
Halfway through speaking, he stopped, this kind of question is too sensitive, and the relationship between the two has not reached that point, so it is a little embarrassing to ask.
Xu Yang didn't care, this kind of thing, since he decided to cooperate, it would be better to make it clearer.
He shook his head and said, "No." ”
He said no, and Xiang Wentian believed it.
Without him, to the extent of the other party, is it necessary to continue to deceive people?
Xu Yang also seemed to feel that he didn't need much explanation, and continued to follow the previous words: "After that, the younger brother was chased and killed all the way along the way, and he was not afraid to joke at the younger brother, at that time, the junior brother's martial arts were mediocre, and he really couldn't fight those wolf-like Qingcheng sect disciples. Fortunately, Mr. Yue Da, the head of the Menghuashan faction, did not give up and was able to be included in the door wall by his old man. ”
These are all public things, and Xu Yang doesn't feel the need to hide anything.
That's just the way it is.
