Chapter 60: Raid

Returning to the villa, although you can't see anyone with a sword, it doesn't mean that martial arts are forbidden here. Not to mention the skills of several village owners, even the servants who came and went around him, Ling Yan also felt a little martial aura on them. Ling Yan has been in the house for a few years, and although few people have mentioned this return to the mountain villa, among these very few rumors, almost every version of the news that only people enter but not people come out. This is worth scrutinizing, could it be that these servants in the village are the disciples who have been punished in the village for many years?

While following behind Shen Xiaolan, Ling Yan thought. Is this where I will end up in the future?'

After passing through three arches and two small bridges, Ling Yan and the others finally arrived at their destination. I saw that the garden was green and grassy, and the flowers were in full bloom, and among the flowers, there was a lack of a fifty-step square platform paved with bluestone slabs, and the slate patterns were very similar to several other martial arts venues in the academy.

"This return to the villa really has something to do with the academy......" Ling Yan looked around for a while, and said secretly in his heart.

Seeing that Ling Yan didn't react, Shen Xiaolan patted the other party on the shoulder with her hand and said, "What do you want, let's start!"

Ling Yan came back to his senses, nodded, and strode onto the competition platform.

Seeing this, Shen Xiaolan reached out and took out her long sword on the weapon rack. The scabbard is pale green, and the slender saber carved with countless flowers on it has a unique style in Shen Xiaolan's hands.

Turning over, Shen Xiaolan landed safely on the ring, about two feet away from Ling Yan. She slowly raised the long sword in her hand, crossed it to her chest and said, "The name of the sword is 'Hundred Flowers', and the sword skills I use are also called 'Hundred Flowers'." ”

Ling Yan smiled slightly, and also raised his long sword and said, "The sword has no name, and the sword technique falls into the Ying Feihua!"

"Hey, hey. When Shen Xiaolan heard this, she couldn't help laughing: "You will only fall into the Ying Flying Sword......

Ling Yan was a little embarrassed, but he couldn't say anything to refute it, and with a 'poof' sound, the long sword was unsheathed. The scabbard is clenched in his left hand behind his back, and the long sword in his right hand is pointed at the opponent.

"Be careful over there!" Shen Xiaolan chuckled, and the long sword was unsheathed. The sword body in his hand shook, and he rushed straight towards Ling Yan. "Look at the move!" The long sword stabbed straight towards the opponent's chest, Ling Yan used a little force under his feet, and the long sword in his hand was sharply blocked, only to hear the sound of clanging endlessly, and Shen Xiaolan's attacks were all blocked by him.

"It's not over yet!" Shen Xiaolan snorted, the long sword turned, only to the door in front of Ling Yan, Ling Yan was shocked, and hurriedly took the sword to block, the two swords intersected, and a huge force rushed directly towards Ling Yan's body through the sword body, one was unstable, and even someone flew out with the sword.

"Hmm......" Ling Yan rolled in the air and landed safely, his heart had already put away his contempt, and then he looked at Shen Xiaolan, who was standing with a sword on the opposite side, and looked at himself with a wicked smile.

'This is really a shame and a big shame......" Ling Yan smiled bitterly in his heart, and once again raised his sword. A set of Luoying flying swords suddenly shot, and the sword shadow followed the sword shadow, and the fight with Shen Xiaolan was impressive.

The two of them exchanged twenty moves, and Ling Yan was once again knocked out by Shen Xiaolan. This time, it took three steps back to stabilize his figure.

"The trick of this Hundred Flower Sword is somewhat similar to my Luoying Flying Flower Sword, but the power has indeed increased by more than one ......" Ling Yan threw a sword flower with the long sword in his hand, secretly thinking in his heart how to crack the other party's move.

Shen Xiaolan tilted her face slightly, as if she had seen through Ling Yan's thoughts. put away the long sword in his hand and said with a smile: "I'm tired today, let's stop here, Miss Ben still has something to do, tomorrow is up to you!"

Ling Yan frowned, a little surprised. But it was as if I was relieved. If the two continue to fight, I am afraid that they will really lose.

At this moment, Ge Bufan walked in from the garden arch, thinking that he glanced at Ling Yan in the ring from afar, but he didn't say anything. just beckoned Shen Xiaolan and left the garden.

Seeing this, Ling Yan looked four more times, and breathed a sigh of relief when he found that there was no one. Closing his eyes and thinking about the move Shen Xiaolan used just now, the long sword in his hand slowly moved. Once, twice, three times......

"What do you think?" In the grove not far from the arch, three middle-aged Confucian scholars stared intently at Ling Yan, who was imitating Shen Xiaolan's sword moves in the ring.

"Since Shi Yanbing sent it to us, I believe that the two brothers naturally understand its intentions......" Jian Fan Li, the talented man among the three, was the first to speak.

"We naturally understand that this Guili Mountain Villa was built with their support, and it is also our duty to train some reserve disciples for it......" Wan Zuimeng paused, and then said: "It's just that I can't get away now, if Xiaolan's matter is solved this time, fifth brother, you can teach him." ”

"Yes, third brother......" Fan Li nodded. He looked at Ling Yan again.

"Well, that's good. Qiao Yunhe, the owner of the fourth village, watched for a while, nodded and praised: "This son has a smooth and accurate sword, and this basic skill is probably that he has been practicing swords for more than ten years." ”

"More than ten years...... Wan Zuimeng was silent for a while and said, "Do you remember the first day he came, he only wore an intermediate disciple's costume, right?"

"The third brother is right. The younger brother is also very strange, in the past, the academy sent people here, all of them were the best among the disciples, and they had some martial arts skills. But this Ling Yan seems to only use this basic set of Luoying Flying Flower Sword. In just a few decades, the teaching standard of the academy has dropped to such an unbearable level?"

"I can't conclude that although this Luo Ying Fei Flower Sword is the basic of entry, it must also be supplemented with complementary internal strength to multiply its power, I look at the competition between Ling Yan and Xiaolan just now, and he was knocked out by Xiaolan twice in a row with the same trick 'Flower Clusters', not that he couldn't resist it, but that the internal force had not been refined. It seems that there are still some loopholes in the college's criteria for selecting talents. Fan Li's words made the other two nod yes.

"If you want to pass on his internal skills, let the fifth brother watch it. Wan Zuimeng retracted his gaze and said lightly. "This kid still can't understand Xiaolan's sword moves, which of you is going to give him some hints tonight?"

As soon as these words came out, Fan Li and Qiao Yunhe laughed bitterly at the same time. "It turns out that the third brother is also a person who loves talents......"

Thinking about it, a sword move was actually practiced for two hours, Ling Yan's brows tightened, and he thought about Shen Xiaolan's appearance when she used this move countless times. But I just don't need it. I can't help but be a little annoyed.

The sky was getting dark, and the hunger in my stomach was getting stronger and stronger. Ling Yan put away his long sword and prepared to go back first. It's just that I was not only defeated twice by the same trick today, but I really couldn't learn that trick for a few hours, and I couldn't help but feel a little lost in my heart.

"I'll only continue thinking about it tomorrow after morning class......

As soon as he stepped out of the competition platform, he felt a gust of evil wind flashing behind him, and Ling Yan's instinctive long sword swung behind him, only to see a black shadow flash out of Zhang Xu with a loud voice. Ling Yan fixed his eyes and saw that the black shadow was dressed in black, of medium stature, staring at him silently with his empty hands clasped around his chest.

"Who are you!" Ling Yan pointed his sword at the other party and said angrily.

The man in black didn't answer, his hands turned into palms, and he slapped Ling Yan's chest with one palm, Ling Yan's body slammed, and the long sword turned out a sword flower, directly taking the opponent's door. But the man in black seemed to have expected it, and with a twist of his palm, the direction of the long sword stabbed changed with a ding. Ling Yan was in a hurry, and the long sword came out in succession, but it couldn't hit the man in black. The right foot retreated, and he said fiercely in his heart: "This man in black is so strong, he can't fight against him with all his might, so he can only ask for help, and when a few owners arrive, he must be able to take down this person." Thinking about it, Ling Yan didn't care about the other swords to force the man in black back, turned around and ran.

The man in black turned over and landed, and when he saw Ling Yan like this, he immediately learned what the other party thought. With a force under his feet, he attacked Ling Yan with both palms. Ling Yan seemed to notice it, and with one hand, he turned out a few sword flowers to protect his body, and the long sword stabbed out quickly, and the move was aimed at the man in black. But I couldn't win the tricks of the man in black just now, how can it be useful now?

The man in black swung his palm, and the tip of his sword was turned to his side. Ling Yan was in a hurry, and as soon as he put away the long sword in his hand, he saw that the opponent's right palm was attacking again. I don't care about anything else, I can only use my true qi and stab out with a sword as my last stand!

The winter in the north is very long, the mountains are covered by heavy snow, and the roads leading to the deeper parts of the north are covered by snow, and most travelers and adventurers from other places will be trapped in this northern winter unless there is a guide to guide the way.

Stone Castle, located on the northernmost frontier of the Holy Empire. As the backbone of the border fortress line, naturally her role is particularly prominent. Not only is it an important defensive fulcrum to defend against frost ogres and other monsters invading the northern borders of the empire. It is also the only resource supply point in the north except for the rear White Port. Because of this, the stone castle is permanently staffed by a large number of soldiers, as well as adventurers hired by nobles or individuals to find the relics of the previous era.

Soldiers, mountain people, adventurers. These three types of people fill the border stone forts.

Nearly 500 years have passed since the end of the previous era and the beginning of the new era. The extinction of the old race and the rise of the new race are indeed not even waves in the long river of history.

I only heard a ding! The long sword and the opponent's flesh palm actually made a sound of gold and iron. The figure in black flickered, and the figure was forced back by the sword.

And Ling Yan lost strength under his feet and fell directly to the ground.

"Someone, there's an assassin!" Ling Yan shouted with all his strength, ignoring the pain around him.

The man in black was just about to take a step forward, when he heard Ling Yan shouting, he immediately became happy. With his right hand flipped behind his waist, a cyan stone suddenly hit Ling Yan in the chest, and he was knocked unconscious directly.

The man in black stepped forward and pulled down the black cloth that covered his face. It is Qiao Yunhe, the owner of the four villages. Gently grinding the beard on his lower forehead, he looked at Ling Yan who was unconscious on the ground, and smiled bitterly.

"Fortunately, I ordered the servants to go farther just now, otherwise it would have made a big deal by now. With that, Qiao Yunhe bent down and carried Ling Yan on his shoulder, and slowly walked out of the garden. I went in the direction of the front garden.

And just when Qiao Yunhe had just left with Ling Yan. A few figures flashed over the bushes not far away. One of them said: "Go and report to Miss, there are no guards here tonight, this opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

The other immediately nodded, rolled over and jumped out.

Half an hour later, on the reef by the sea.

Several masked people surrounded the man in black and whispered: "Miss, I will find an unguarded courtyard today, and if we attack at this time, we will definitely be able to kill the other party!"

When the man in black heard this, his shoulders trembled slightly, and he said, "Is this true?

"The little one can see clearly, indeed all the guards have been withdrawn!" replied the man, bowing his head.

"That'...... Now do it, I'll go with you!" the man in black reached out and took off his hat, and a delicate face appeared in the moonlight.

'I'll get you out right away...... Senior brother ......, "The woman is Yanxi."
