Chapter 14: First encounter in Xuancheng
Youzhou North Xuancheng
Along the way, Xiang Junhao and Helan Xuanji played around, and asked Mo Qingzhi for advice and experience. Not only did she learn some fighting skills from the Heavenly Master's Mansion, but she also knew some of Helan Xuanji's life experience, it turned out that her grandfather was the prince of the former Western Night Kingdom in the Western Regions. The Western Night Kingdom borders Liangzhou in the west of Tiansheng on the north side of the Western Regions, and is regarded as a vassal state of Tiansheng. Five years ago, the Demon Rebellion in the Western Regions and the Northern Territory The Demon Rebellion and the Demon Clans invaded many feudal states in the Western Regions at the same time, and Tiansheng Liangzhou Jiayu City, Youzhou Chiyun City and Xuancheng were in flames, and wars broke out in many places. After all, the West Night Kingdom did not survive until the reinforcements of Tiansheng and Linglong were destroyed, its royal family was slaughtered, the people were scattered everywhere, and the national capital West Night City was burned by the demons for three days and three nights and became a ruin. Helan Xuanji's parents took refuge in Tiansheng and landed in Yizhou, and she was apprenticed by the Heavenly Master's Mansion.
In this way, Xiang Junhao followed Mo Qingzhi and Helan Xuanji's uncle and nephew to drive a squeaky ox cart, and finally came to the south gate of Xuancheng in the north of Youzhou, which is the hub of Middle Earth and the north and abroad, and communicates with a number of important towns bordering the north, and is more than 100 miles away from the nearest border town of Chiyun City, which is the only way to experience the destination of the Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts. The traces of the destruction of the city on the city wall that are claimed to be repaired are still visible, but it still stands majestically, like an angry King Kong, holding the enemy back and making the city impregnable. After the reconstruction of Xuancheng, it has the prosperity of the past, and the three of them wandered around the commercial market in the city. Helan Xuanji held both hands full of food with a satisfied expression, and followed behind Mo Qingzhi while eating. And Xiang Junhao became a laborer, carrying all kinds of things bought by Mo Qingzhi and Helan Xuanji on his shoulders.
Mo Qingzhi handed a new vial to Helan Xuanji, and said: This is Tiansheng has been very popular recently, it is very water-locking skin care, keeping the skin moisturized, the skin is moist and shiny, and Uncle Shi has used it really well. Come, one for each of us.
Helan Xuanji took the small porcelain vase and said in surprise: Wow, is it so amazing? Thank you, uncle.
Xiang Junhao followed behind and was pressed by the size of the mountain, and said weakly: "Uncle, aren't you Qing Xiu? We can hire more than a dozen carriages for these things you bought! Besides, aren't you purchasing supplies for entering the mountain? All kinds of skin care creams, green wine, show cloth, barbecue materials, reclining chairs, dolls, tea leaves, tea sets, and so many books, which one is necessary for training?
Mo Qingzhi covered his mouth with a folding fan, and said with a coquettish smile: You are a little straight man, internal maintenance is the focus of life. For those who sleep in the mountains, we must ensure a quality of life. Especially this skin care, you must be in the best condition at all times, and you must be beautiful at all times. And shopping and carrying a package is to practice the state of mind, and the second is to train your physical strength. Besides, the experience of going down the mountain is mainly for you, and I am accompanying and taking care of you. When you are free, you sleep on a recliner, sip tea and read a book, and watch you fight little monsters. Come, give you a vow, and you put your things inside.
Helan Xuanji also turned her head and gave Xiang Junhao a grimace, and suddenly pointed to a shop in front of her and said: "Uncle, look at a few ready-to-wear stores in front, I want to buy a few good-looking martial arts clothes, junior brother, you are waiting here."
After speaking, he pulled Mo Qingzhi and ran away, Xiang Junhao helplessly found a vacant space in front of him, and muttered while putting things neatly into the ring: It's too tiring to go shopping! I also go shopping and count my experience, I believe you have a big mouth. Besides, experience is not a beauty pageant, and no matter how good you look at it, it will not increase your combat effectiveness.
An hour passed, and the two were still not seen coming out of the store. Xiang Junhao, who has been squatting in the shade on the side of the road, is considered to be a beggar because he is a little disheveled, his clothes are gray, and he is gnawing on dry cakes. Suddenly, a shadow fell down from the wall behind Xiang Junhao, lying on the ground beside him, and looked at Xiang Junhao. He saw that this person was dressed in a gray cloth coat, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, a leopard's head and eyes, and seemed to be a little injured. Xiang Junhao didn't think much about it and helped this person up, and at this time, many people who were also wearing gray cloth clothes suddenly came out from the surrounding street corners and walked towards them. I saw that the man in black suddenly attached to Xiang Junhao's ear, paused for a moment and then thanked him, then patted him on the back, and turned over the wall and left. The black-clothed men who poured out from all around divided their troops into two ways, one continued to track them away, but the other surrounded Xiang Junhao on the side of the road. Xiang Junhao looked at the people in front of him a little confused, only to see one of them who seemed to be the leader pointing at him and shouting: Tie up this accomplice, take it down! Although Xiang Junhao didn't know what was going on, he couldn't let people tie him up for no reason, so he pulled the shelf and fought with the person who got started. Fortunately, these are ordinary people, who have not practiced much fighting skills and have no Yuan Qi spiritual power, and within a few rounds, they were all put down by Xiang Junhao along with the leader of the cloth clothes.
Suddenly, Xiang Junhao felt that there was a very strong Lingqi murderous aura coming, so he subconsciously dodged aside according to Lingqi's perception. Sure enough, several throwing knives pierced the brick wall behind him just behind the place. Xiang Junhao was half-squatting, and his right hand touched the steel short blade pinned to his waist, ready to draw the knife at any time, it was the one that Qingxuan Zhenren gave him. He quickly looked around for the enemy, and looked at the inch-deep throwing knife that pierced into the brick wall, and the enemy was not weak.
At this time, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl appeared in front of him with several people in the same gray cloth clothes, surrounded Xiang Junhao and sealed his escape route. I saw that the girl was wearing a black and purple military robe, and the neckline and cuffs were embroidered with golden vines, which looked very sassy. The long blue-purple hair is neatly coiled up, without any headdress, under the delicate willow eyebrows, a pair of clear purple eyes are like ice water, with a hint of domineering in the cold, and the snow-white forehead is lightly raised, with all the arrogance and domineering in the eyes. The girl took a step forward, and as soon as she raised her hand, the nine golden-winged flying knives that were stuck in the brick wall automatically pulled out of the wall and flew back in an instant, floating in the air in an arc around the girl. I saw an old man with a staff behind her also stepped forward, and said to Jun Hao with a smile: This little brother, just now his subordinates were frizzy and offended, but the old man has something to ask. Did you know the man you picked up? What did he tell you?
Xiang Junhao felt uncomfortable, and good people squatted on the side of the street from the roof. Indiscriminately start fighting and threatening with flying knives, and you will be finished with a sentence that your subordinates are ignorant? He replied angrily: I don't know who that person is, I don't know what to say, I only know that you are not sensible!
Stinky boy, are you impatient? Look at me to give you a knife and teach you to be a new person! As he spoke, he saw a big swarthy man who was more than eight feet tall, with pimples all over his body, and his whole body was as strong as sitting on a hill, carrying a nine-ringed wolf's head knife that was almost as high as Xiang Junhao, and he was staring at Xiang Junhao viciously with leopard eyes.
The purple-haired girl raised her hand, and the old man and the big man with the staff instantly bowed their heads respectfully and saluted silently. The purple-haired girl asked Jun Hao with a domineering taste: That person took something that didn't belong to him from me just now, and we must take it back. I'll ask you again, who is that person and what did he tell you, otherwise the knife wouldn't have missed this time!
Xiang Junhao saw that this was a group of people who couldn't be reasonable at all, there was no need to talk nonsense, so he pulled out the steel short blade from his waist and held it horizontally in front of him, and said to the girl: I don't know, I don't know, if you want to do it, come here!
The purple-haired girl didn't talk nonsense, I saw her willow eyebrows raised lightly, and with a finger of her right hand, the nine golden-winged flying knives in front of her flew towards Jun Hao. Seeing that this flying knife was in a hurry and fast to Jun Hao, he turned into a shape, and nine short knives with the same stainless steel short blade in his hand appeared in front of him, and they were entangled with the incoming flying knife. Everyone saw that the purple-haired girl and Xiang Junhao were both attacking with luck, directing the blades to attack each other in the air, and they both wanted to find each other's loopholes and kill them with one blow, but they couldn't find the killing opportunity for a while. Xiang Junhao is right hand is knife control, and his empty left hand is fist luck, and a heavenly thunder shock strikes out and goes straight to the purple-haired girl. The purple-haired girl didn't expect the kid on the other side to be so insidious, her palms moved forward, and the nine flying knives flew back in an instant, turning into a whirlwind shield to block the incoming air shock. Xiang Junhao saw that there was an opportunity, and the short blades of the transformation also stabbed straight past with the heavenly thunder. But he saw that the whirlwind shield on the opposite side turned into nine, completely covering the purple-haired girl and blocking all the incoming Qihua short blades.
