Chapter 18 Toast to the ancestors
About half an hour later, the call for drums at the foot of the holy mountain gradually rose, and all the children of the Jixia School Palace gathered over.
Comparatively speaking, in the martial arts assessment, climbing the holy mountain can be regarded as the simplest one, and it can even be said that it is not counted as one.
Because for the children of the palace who practice martial arts and self-cultivation, it is not difficult to climb the mountain.
But every season exam, there will be it.
Because the holy mountain is the ancestral mountain of the Ming Dynasty, the brave climb to the holy mountain is more like a ritual and cannot be exempted.
So this time, Liu Xu will not compete for the top spot.
Because of disdain, as well as meaninglessness.
The speed at which he climbed was not fast, and he was traveling at the same height as Chu Yulin and the others.
From time to time, the four of them laughed and talked about each other, and they were extraordinary.
Occasionally, a woman would climb in front of him, and four people would whistle flirtatiously below.
The woman hated.
"Sister, where are you? You don't wear obscene clothes under your white dress?" they were not ashamed, and their words were teasing.
The children of the school palace are naturally famous families, and the woman is even more angry when she looks back, and wants to write them down in order to take revenge later.
But she saw Liu Xu for the first time, and Chu Yulin for the second time.
One is the eldest son of King Qingyang, who has a stubborn reputation in the school palace and even the imperial court, and the other is the son of the green ape.
Liu Xu and the others, it is impossible for her not to know them, so she lost her temper when she arrived.
The woman turned her head away and continued to climb.
However, the four people below were like four hooligans, and during the climbing, there were bursts of whistles and constant laughter.
Therefore, the noblewomen of the entire Ming Dynasty were harassed by them whistling like this.
Except for a few people with special identities who they dare not tease, most of the girls are all disgraced and screaming when they see them.
Therefore, the four of them climbed in front of all the girls of the school palace.
The holy mountain does not account for a proportion in the martial arts class, and it will not be eliminated if it can be climbed.
All the women did not want to climb in front of them and let them patronize.
Therefore, the ascent of the sacred mountain has become the longest time.
Zutai is located on the mountainside of the Holy Mountain, surrounded by clouds and mist.
It doesn't seem high, but it's actually the pinnacle.
Nearly two hours later, all the disciples of the Jixia School Palace arrived.
When he came in person, especially after seeing the majesty of the wordless monument, Liu Xu was deeply moved.
Who would have thought that such a holy place could be naturally excavated on the mountainside of Bailong Mountain?
The ancestral platform of the Ming Dynasty is endlessly high, touching the eyes, the length and width are boundless, only a wordless stele cliff hangs in front of the sky.
Farther away, the green onions are caged, and the fairy mist is shrouded.
It's not like building, it's like it's made in nature.
The ancestral platform has steps, but it is not high, and the children of Jixia climb on it and line up on the flat stone slabs.
At the same time, he looked solemn and looked ahead.
Because on the high steps of the ancestral platform, not only stands the national honorable master.
There was another person beside Taifu.
The man was a woman, dressed in sacrificial robes, and was still young, and should have been doomed.
But at this moment, none of the children of the palace below dare to be disrespectful because of their age.
On the contrary, many rebellious disciples were silent one by one, and their expressions became focused.
Because of this woman's extraordinary status, she toasted Tang Yuansun with Daming wine.
What is a toast?
That is, he was favored by God, born with divination thaumaturgy, dared to bow down to the Ming Emperor, and the luck of a country was added to his body, and he was honored by all the people as a national sacrifice.
Therefore, the Zhuan Sun clan is a legend in Daming.
In fact, not only the Ming Dynasty, but also all dynasties.
Since the Tang Dynasty, to the first Jin, and even the Ming Dynasty, the three dynasties for nearly a thousand years, the Zhuan Sun family has been used as a national temple toast, and has never changed.
The family and country can change, and the fortune of the dynasty can change, but the bloodline of the grandson does not change.
Therefore, the Zhuan Sun family is the oldest and most mysterious family in the Ming Dynasty.
But in the past 100 years, there have been signs of decay of the Zhuan Sun clan.
Due to the luck of the country, it is difficult for the grandchildren to have children in successive national sacrifices, and they can only be passed on from generation to generation.
Yes, although the Zhuan Sun clan has a population of thousands, there is only one son in the direct lineage.
It is the daughter of Zutai in front of her.
She is named after her surname and grandson, which is extremely honorable.
The whole family, only she can use it.
The next moment, under the instruction of Taifu, she climbed to the highest ancestral platform step by step to worship her ancestors.
Because it is a small sacrifice, the ceremony is not complicated, and the ministers of the Ming Emperor did not come in person, only to toast and pray for the announcement.
Climbing the holy mountain and kneeling to the ancestral ground is for the regular order.
After the sons have bowed down, all the activities can begin.
There was a magic circle on the ancestral platform, and the next moment, as the magic circle was activated, the rings slowly rose.
The ring is not high, but it is long and wide, and there are no less than dozens of them as far as the eye can see.
And in each of them, there is a young master standing.
The young master is young, but his strength is extraordinary, and the results of the competition are announced by them.
Just when the students were silent, the grandfather of the country on the ancestral platform held a huge scroll in his hand, and instantly rose to the sky.
Go straight to the wordless monument cliff and fly away.
This run, there is a tendency to fly, and everyone's eyes are amazed.
Wow!
After a few breaths, he climbed to the cliff of the endless stele, only to see his palm lightly handed, the scroll hung horizontally on the cliff, due to the weight, there was a bang, and the scroll slowly unfolded.
There are words on the volume, which are as big as a fight, which is the order of the ring competition.
Liu Xu raised his eyes, looked for it, and saw Yang Xuanqing after a while.
"Xuanzi Ring, the third game. Liu Xu muttered to himself.
Not far away, Yang Zhigong and Zuo Qin also found their own order of appearance in turn.
"Boss, I'm also the third. Chu Yulin walked over and said.
"Oh, what about the two of them?" asked Liu Xu casually.
"Zuo Qin is the first game, and the palace is the second game. ”
"Call the two of them over and go down to the ancestral platform to rest for a while. Liu Xu said.
Before the words were finished, Zuo Qin and the others had already left.
"Boss, do you know who your opponent is?" Yang Zhigong asked with a smile.
"Didn't bother to look for it. Liu Xu replied, very blandly.
The reels only indicate the ring number and the number of appearances. If you want to find an opponent, you need to find the third player in the Xuanzi Ring as well.
"Boss, you can't think of this person. Zuo Qin's laughter came.
"Oh, it looks like someone I know. Liu Xu said.
"Yes! It is the twelve princes who bet with you before. Yang Gong pointed out.
Scold!
What a coincidence?
Liu Xu's expression was playful, which was unexpected.
After a while, the four of them went down to the ancestral platform to rest.
There are many other people under the ancestral platform, most of whom are slaves of various sons and county lords.
They had already found a place to wait for their masters to come back and rest.
Liu Xu came to his own venue, gave an order, and approached the two close guards of the Fire Palace, one of them served tea, and the other bowed his hand and said: "Shizi, the things have been brought." ”
Liu Xu nodded, took the tea, and after a while, he turned around and said to Yang Zhigong and the others: "You quench your thirst first." ”
“......”
“......”
It wasn't until half an hour later that the thunder drum sounded, and the first round of the competition officially began.
Zuo Qin's first battle, Liu Xu and the three naturally came to observe.
His opponent was very strong, and he was the son of the Admiral of Sanjiang, Yuan Kai.
Yuan Kai's father, Yuan Zhong, commanded a heavy army and had a monstrous power in the domain of the Three Rivers. But he has the air of a military general, can't read words, and is despised by his colleagues, so he spends a lot of effort to send his young son to study under the grass.
The region of the three rivers is far away from the national capital Anyang, and it is to go thousands of miles to study.
However, this Yuan Kai is not weak in the imperial court.
On the contrary, inheriting his father's character, he was very arrogant.
"You are Zuo Qin, the second son of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion?" In the ring, he asked in a low voice, with much contempt.
As soon as these words came out, many people were shocked.
Chu Yulin and even Liu Xu's faces changed.
"It's just a barbaric admiral on the side, who gives you the confidence to dare to speak like this?" Zuo Qin was angry, he was not a good stubble.
"You're looking for death!"
Yuan Kai was violent, just one point, the word barbaric described his father, and he became popular in an instant.
The next moment, the angry fist rushed straight at him.
And that fist style is completely a lifeless posture.
Hum!
With an angry shout, Zuo Qin also came with his fist.
His punches are even more insane because they are infused with a lot of power.
Undoubtedly, it is also fighting for its life.
Belch?
The audience was instantly shocked.
The previous quarterly exams and competitions have all been point-to-point, and it is rare to fight for their lives at the beginning like this.
But it's no wonder.
The right prime minister's mansion, Zuoqin, is the eldest son who is crowned, although he is not the eldest son in the true sense.
Because he also has a brother.
But the man died on the day Zuo Qin was born nine years ago.
This is a nonsense among the people, and it is the order of Brother Ke.
On weekdays, you have to avoid it, who dares to talk about it casually!
Therefore, the word second son in Yuan Kai's mouth has contempt and insult to Zuo Qin.
What's more, the next moment, Zuo Qin had a big seizure.
Open!
With a light shout, the power of the fist was used to the extreme, and at the same moment, Zuo Qin fiercely blasted at the former.
Bang!
The sound of the bones clashing sounded immediately, and the two fists pressed against each other.
Yuan Kai was born in the border wilderness, his body is tall, and his strength should be superior.
Then, in the next moment, as the power on Zuo Qin's fist burst out, he was secretly startled.
Because I can't do it.
"Zhongtian Position?" he snorted softly, because there was nothing else possible.
Middle Heaven Position??
Hearing these three words, many students in the audience, and even the young master in front of the stage were slightly surprised.
The path of cultivation, although there is no definite generalization, seems to be virtual and real.
The first to enter the samurai, the blood is surging, the vitality is getting stronger and stronger, and one strength can be worth ten.
And the samurai have three ranks, the small heaven rank, the middle heaven rank, and the big heaven rank.
With each step of growth, there is a great transformation of power.
"Although I haven't arrived yet, it should be enough to teach you a lesson. Zuo Qin said.
At the same time, he threw a second punch.
"Whirlwind Fist!"
There was a shock, and a punch came like a treacherous wind.
That kind of might, twelve points of strength.
Knowing that it was a punch, Yuan Kaiden was shocked and didn't dare to underestimate it.
But he was not afraid.
Because boxing he can too.
"Brute Force Palm!"
There was a loud shout, as if cheering, and at the same time, he slapped his palm.
This palm is extremely powerful, and everyone who is watching is shocked.
Because it doesn't talk about palm techniques, no matter the palm position, it only produces strength.
Yes, this palm, as its name suggests, will be won by force.
In fact, however, it did not succeed.
Because Zuo Qin's fist is very weird, and at the same time, it is even stronger in strength.
Bang!
Therefore, only a loud shock was heard, and under this punch, Yuan Kai's charging posture was forced to retreat alive.
And in the process of shaking back, coughing up blood in the mouth.
Scare!
Many people were taken aback.
Undoubtedly, under this punch, he has been hit hard.
It's terrifying, I've already worked with brute force, but it's still out of my power.
So the audience exclaimed.
Even the sons and sons of various provinces have different faces.
And the ladies and county lords of the prefectures are even brighter-eyed and bold and provocative.
That look, as if he was looking for a husband.
Even the young master in front of the stage couldn't help but squint his eyes.
Because of this punch, even if it does not reach the strength of the middle heaven position, it is not far behind.
If you want to come to the next level, it's right in front of you.
At this moment, Yuan Kai's expression, which had blood in his mouth, changed a lot, including shame, anger, and disbelief.
"What, unconvinced?" Zuo Qin said playfully.
The next moment, who knew that Yuan Kai was annoyed and angry, regardless of his own injuries, he raised his fist again.
This punch does not pay attention to posture, but only retaliates with force.
Hum!
Zuo Qin didn't care at all, grabbed a moment, and threw it straight up.
There is no doubt that at the same moment, Zuo Qin made a footprint on the former's chest.
