Chapter 18: The Sword Casting Ceremony (4)
The time of the two days passed in a flash, and on the day of the ceremony, the Oriental family was lit up everywhere, as if it was a festival. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Early in the morning, Dongfang Ke took the responsibility of reception and stayed at the gate, and greeted all the martial arts people who came to participate in the ceremony one by one. Although he is the second son, when the eldest son Dongfang Ling went out to learn art, the identity of the second son was rising. Several of the deacons who served as the front face around him also held their heads high.
"Second son. A deacon beside him attached to Dongfang Ke's ear and said: "The artistic conception is ready, and you can start welcoming guests." ”
Dongfang Ke nodded and announced the start of greeting.
It was almost noon before all the people who came to participate in the celebration were seated. The front yard of the Oriental House of Nuoda was filled with more than 1,000 martial arts people who came to attend the ceremony.
"Bang!" only heard a gong, the courtyard that was originally full of people immediately quieted down, and everyone gathered their eyes in one place, that is the place where the stands in this courtyard have already been built, and more than a dozen VIPs are already waiting, Xue Gang, He Xun, Dongfang Aoxue and several people are also among them. Under the gaze of everyone, the organizer of this grand event finally appeared. Dongfang Hong walked in the front in full costume, and behind him was naturally Dongfang Yan, the two of them passed by, everyone stood up to greet them, and when the two of them sat down, the crowd began to be restless again.
Dongfang Hong nodded to Dongfang Yan beside him, who understood and began to greet the people from the rivers and lakes who came to watch the ceremony.
In the stands, Dongfang Aoxue and He Xun were obviously the two most excited. Because of their young qualifications, the two were arranged at the end of the VIP seats, but this did not affect the mentality of the two of them to watch the excitement.
The rivers and lakes have always used martial arts to meet friends, so several martial arts competitions were arranged in the first session of this grand ceremony. Several disciples of the Dongfang family took turns to fight, swords and swords, and the exclamations of Dongfang Aoxue and He Xun sounded from time to time in the stands. And just opposite the two, Xue Gang really looked at the two of them with a pale face, and he didn't even react to the existence of Dongfang Ke beside him.
"Brother Xue!" Dongfang Ke patted the other party on the shoulder.
"Hmm?" Xue Gang came back to his senses violently and looked at Dongfang Ke.
"Brother Xue is not feeling well?" Dongfang Ke asked worriedly.
Xue Gang glanced in the direction of He Xun again, and said with a smile: "Thank you Brother Dongfang for your concern, I was just a little distracted just now." ”
"It's okay...... It's okay......" Dongfang Ke smiled and continued to watch the battle off the field.
"Bang ......" The two swords intersected on the stage, bursting into scattered sparks. Everyone in the audience applauded loudly, and then looked at the weapons in the hands of the two people, there was indeed nothing unusual at all, and they flickered under the sun.
"Brother Xue, how is it?" Dongfang Ke asked with a hook of the corners of his mouth towards Xue Gang.
"Good sword ......" Xue Gang's eyes narrowed, looking at the long sword in the hands of the person on the stage and licking his lips: "The casting skills of the Dongfang family are really worthy of their reputation. ”
After Dongfang Ke listened, the smile on his face became even stronger.
There were two more people on the competition stage. "Huh......" The crowd exclaimed.
"Third brother?" Dongfang Ke looked at the stage, only to see that one of them turned out to be his third brother Dongfang Sheng.
Dongfang Sheng smiled at the stage, and the long sword in his hand was unsheathed. The right hand forms a sword finger and points at the opponent from afar. Another young man on the jousting platform was stunned for a moment, and then turned his gaze to Dongfang Hong's place above the stands, wanting to get permission there. Dongfang Hong, who was in the stands, thought for a moment and nodded.
The other party immediately understood, and the long sword in his hand lined up.
The audience immediately fell silent, and everyone's eyes were focused on the arena, just waiting for the battle between the two to begin.
"Drink!" With a slight sigh of relief, Dongfang Sheng shouted, pulled out a sword flower with the long sword in his hand, and rushed towards the opponent. The young man's long sword swept away, and he easily pushed away the long sword that Dongfang Sheng stabbed, Dongfang Sheng stepped on his feet, his body flew around, and the long sword drew an arc with his body, and stabbed again.
The young man's pupils shrank, and his heart was shocked. This little young master is indeed a little advanced, this sword is indeed good, if it is usually a good time, it can indeed be said that it has some experience, but it is indeed shallow to deal with him, the young man gritted his teeth, his feet twitched, his body leaned back, and the long sword almost brushed the tip of his nose.
Dongfang Sheng stabilized his body, and when he saw that he missed a blow, he was charging out with strength in his hand, stabbing several swords in succession, and attacking the place where the young man must be saved. The young man swung his sword to block, and every time he dissolved Dongfang Sheng's tricks.
Just after twenty moves, Dongfang Sheng didn't succeed in a single blow, at the age of fifteen or sixteen, it was the time of frivolity, seeing that the moves he practiced weekdays were not cheap in the hands of the family guards. I couldn't help but feel a little angry in my heart.
The two fought a few more moves, and the young man's long sword shook, but instead bounced out the attacking Dongfang Sheng. Dongfang Sheng's silver teeth bited, the anger in his heart was even stronger, the long sword was clenched, and the force under his feet suddenly exerted force, and it was actually stabbed towards the vital point of the young man's body, the young man was still annoyed, he didn't let the third young master suffer some losses for a while, but when he looked up again, he saw Dongfang Sheng attacking with a sword, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at his heart, and he was suddenly shocked.
There was no time to stop at his feet, he swept out with one foot, Dongfang Sheng was attacking with all his strength, seeing the other party sweeping with one foot, he hurriedly collected his sword to block, but how could he have time, the sudden retraction actually made Dongfang Sheng's body directly lose balance, and his feet were empty, and he was about to fall.
With just a loud sound, the young man's shoulder was scratched by Dongfang Sheng's long sword, and Dongfang Sheng, who originally wanted to hold on, landed on the ground even more solidly.
The martial arts people present were all stunned when they saw this, but no one dared to laugh out loud.
"Poof......" Suddenly, in the silent courtyard, there was a sneer.
'Who's laughing?'" Everyone looked around and followed the sound, only to see that above the stands, a young man in red clothes was covering his mouth at the moment, looking around with wide eyes. And Dongfang Aoxue beside him, Dongfang Ke was even more stunned by this move.
"Who is this person, and how dare you be so bold?" I believe that everyone is asking this question in their hearts at this moment.
Dongfang Sheng slowly got up from the competition platform, his face turned red, he didn't pay attention to the injured deacon beside him, just picked up the long sword that was still stained with a little blood stains around him, pointed at He Xun on the stand, gritted his teeth and said, "Are you laughing at me?" and a slightly immature voice, which was already containing resentment at the moment.
"Hmm......" He Xun was a little embarrassed, he originally watched it well, but who knew that this Dongfang Sheng's fall was really full of comedy, and he laughed out loud for a while. He Xun slowly walked to the side of the stands and said to Dongfang Sheng: "I definitely have the intention to offend the third prince......
"I'm going to challenge you!" Dongfang Sheng said coldly.
“...... Just for a moment...... What did Childe say?" He Xun said in surprise.
"I'm going to challenge you!" Dongfang Sheng's angry voice came again.
Everyone in the audience heard it clearly, and began to talk about it. This has never happened in the history of the Oriental family, and the family members actually want to challenge the guests, and they are VIPs, which is not polite.
Dongfang Yan, who was sitting on the stands, frowned, and immediately stood up and said, "Sheng'er must not be rude, Gongzi He is a distinguished guest of my Dongfang family!"
"I'm going to challenge you!!" Dongfang Sheng ignored Dongfang Yan's advice and said coldly again.
"......" He Xun frowned, not knowing how to react, and couldn't help but ask for help from the opposite Dongfang Ke. Dongfang Ke saw that He Xun was looking for help, and when he came out of the circle.
It's just that before Dongfang Ke could answer, Xue Gang was indeed the first to say: "Didn't Gongzi He look down on the third prince?
"Xue Shaoxia! This is the land of my Dongfang home! I hope to restrain myself!" Dongfang Yan heard this, thinking about Xue Gang and said coldly.
Although he has the title of 'Ten Masterpieces', for a predecessor like Dongfang Yan, who has been famous in the rivers and lakes for more than ten years, his qualifications really cannot be compared with him. Xue Gang smiled on his face, hugged his fists and said, "It's the kid Meng Lang." I beg your pardon, Mr. Yan. After speaking, he stopped making a sound, just looked at He Xun quietly.
"Big brother......" Dongfang Yan turned his head and asked Dongfang Hong for instructions, as long as Dongfang Hong opened his mouth to stop it, no matter how insistent Dongfang Sheng was, it could be recovered. But to his surprise, Dongfang Hong was indeed invisible, and he was also looking at He Xun curiously at the moment.
I don't know when the second brother invited such guests. Looking at this young man's dress, he may be a member of a big family, and rashly committing a crime will leave some unknown hidden dangers, but if it is over, what face does my Dongfang family have in front of so many martial arts people, this canon is to promote my Dongfang name, but it is really impossible...... 'Dongfang Hong thought about it, and shook his head towards Dongfang Yan.
"Big brother!" Dongfang Yan was anxious, but he couldn't tell the truth. He Xun is the person personally sent by 'that person', and he must have a lot to do with his forces, if something doesn't go wrong, this Dongfang family is the one who has provoked a bunch of evil stars! Dongfang Yan gritted his teeth, flicked his sleeves, and sat back and ignored it.
"......" He Xun saw Dongfang Yan's actions, and said in his heart that Dongfang Yan couldn't be counted on, and he was afraid that he would not be able to avoid today's battle. Taking a deep breath, He Xun had to bite the bullet and say, "Since this is the case, then I will offend ......"
After speaking, He Xun folded the fan, stepped on his feet, and his body changed a few times in his mouth, and he gently landed on the competition platform like riding the wind.
"What a handsome light skill!" The eyes of the people present lit up, just looking at this hand, you can know the level of strength.
Several people in the stands obviously had different thoughts, Dongfang Yan didn't look at it, how could it be idle to be able to call that group of evil stars brothers! Dongfang Aoxue and Dongfang Ke were surprised, and they couldn't see that He Xun still had such means; Dongfang Hong began to regret his decision; Xue Gang's face became even more pale.
