Chapter 36: Entering the City
Fang Xing felt that he was almost ready, so he didn't waste any more time, and after returning the room, he rushed towards the north of Ten Thousand Swords City alone.
A day later, Fang Xing came to the Ten Thousand Swords City, this Ten Thousand Swords City is a city in the mountains, covering an area of thousands of acres, the entire city is located between the mountains, all kinds of buildings are scattered, Fang Xing looked at the mottled city wall from a distance, and sighed that the strength of the Ten Thousand Swords City is strong, and it is extremely difficult to build such a city in this group of mountains with the power of a sect.
The gate was closed, and two disciples were standing guard at the gate, standing motionless.
Fang Xing straightened his clothes and walked forward calmly, before he got closer, the two disciples who guarded the door had already seen Fang Xing in the distance, and excitedly stepped forward, one of them was a young man in a green shirt, hugged his fists and said: "Senior Brother Wu, you are back, if you don't come back, the city lord will have to send someone to find you!"
Wu Zhi has a prestige among the younger generation in Wanjian City, not because of Wu Zhi's strong martial arts, but because although Wu Zhi is the uncle of Wanjian City, he is easy-going and has no arrogance, so his disciples of the same generation like Wu Zhi very much.
"I was a little injured when I arrested my younger brother, so I stayed outside for a while, and some of my brothers and sisters were worried. Fang Xing explained to the two gatekeepers according to Wu Zhi's speech habits in his memory.
The two disciples were amazed that even such a strong level of senior brother would be injured by Wu Jie, so how strong should Wu Jie be, they had only been in Ten Thousand Swords City for a short time, so they had not witnessed Wu Jie's peerless appearance when he looked down on his peers.
Fang Xing casually asked the two of them if they had seen someone send a letter today, and the two disciples all shook their heads blankly. Fang Xing secretly said that the bald head didn't know if he wanted to die, and he didn't seem to be in a hurry at all.
Fang Xing exchanged a few more words with the two disciples, and finally instructed the two disciples to stand guard and not relax, and then entered the Ten Thousand Swords City. After entering the Ten Thousand Swords City, Fang Xing finally breathed a sigh of relief, he finally took the first step after a long journey, and he had to be careful with every step in the future, otherwise his life would be gone.
Ten Thousand Swords City is loose outside and tight inside, although there are only two disciples at the door, but inside the city is five steps and one post, ten steps and one sentry, fortunately, he is not naΓ―ve enough to think that he can steal the elixir. Fang Xing met countless disciples saluting him along the way, and he smiled in response, and then went according to the location of the City Lord's Mansion in his memory, and the first thing he did when he came back was to come back to the City Lord to report the specific situation of arresting Wu Jie.
After Fang woke up to the City Lord's Mansion, a servant trotted all the way in to report, and after a while, he came back and led Fang Xing directly to the study of the City Lord's Mansion, Luo Xin was not in the study at this time, according to the servant, the city lord was practicing in the practice room, and after hearing that Wu Zhi came back, he immediately asked people to take Wu Zhi to his study, and he would come later.
Fang Xing sat anxiously in the study and waited, idle, looked at this study, the study was surrounded by bookshelves, Fang Xing used his spiritual sense to probe, they were all some useless miscellaneous books, there were no martial arts cheats, it seemed that another treasure of Ten Thousand Swords City was used to store all kinds of cheats, recalled, sure enough, it was in line with the sword pool in Wu Jie's memory, Wanjian Pavilion, the way of teaching martial arts is unique, it is in a sword pool, there is a towering giant sword, the disciple sits in the sword pool, and visualizes the giant sword, people with different qualifications can comprehend different swordsmanship, and these swordsmanship in the wind sword and the dragon sword are the top swordsmanship, it's just that Wu Zhi's mad dragon swordsmanship is still a little difficult to practice, so he can't beat his younger brother Wu Jie.
There was also a dark compartment behind the bookshelf, and when Fang Xing was about to probe into his mind to see what was inside, there was a sound of rustling outside the door, and Fang Xing immediately gathered his mind and closed his eyes to recuperate.
After Luo Xin heard that Wu Zhi came back, he stopped practicing as soon as possible, and came to the study non-stop, and found that Wu Zhi was closing his eyes to recuperate, but this Wu Zhi had changed a lot after going out once, and when he had nothing to do in the study, he always liked to take some miscellaneous books to read, but now he seems to be very tired.
Fang Xing saw Luo Xin enter the study, and immediately bowed down and hugged his fists and said, "Father-in-law, the son-in-law failed to arrest his younger brother, and asked for punishment." After finishing speaking, Fang Xing raised his head and looked at the middle-aged man in front of him.
Losin has a dignified body and a dignified appearance. A pair of eyes shot cold stars, and the two curved eyebrows were like paint. Broad-chested, with the majesty of ten thousand invincibles, he is a heroic figure, so Fang Xing can't help but mention a trace of vigilance, in front of such a character, you must be cautious in your words and deeds, the most important thing is that you can't see his depth clearly, and I don't know what realm he has, I think it should be much higher and deeper than myself.
Luo Xin saw Fang Xing staring at him, and was a little surprised in his heart, how did this Wu Zhi seem to not know himself after he came back, but this thought was fleeting, so he smiled and said: "What's the matter, don't you know your father-in-law?" A hearty laugh echoed in the study.
Fang Xing said calmly: "My father-in-law smiled, my son-in-law just hasn't seen my father-in-law for a long time, and I miss it a little." β
"Okay, okay, you can think of me, an old man, the ghost only believes it! You can just treat our family Xiaoyue, you will become much more flamboyant when you come back this time. Luo Xin looked up and down to wake up, and said, "Did you catch up with Wu Jie this time?"
Fang Xing said bitterly: "I have caught up with my younger brother, but my younger brother has an amazing understanding, and now he has learned to slash the wind and breath, I am not his opponent, after fighting him, he also injured his left arm, and now the meridians of his left arm are broken." β
Seeing Fang Xing say this, Luo Xin pulled Fang Xing's left arm, a cold true qi swam in Fang Xing's arm, and it seemed to inadvertently flow to all parts of his body, seeing his inside and out, Fang Xing lifted his spirit, and was a little worried that he would find the image in his dantian, and after a while, he found that Luo Xin did not notice the abnormality, and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Fang Xing said secretly, this Luo Xin is really not easy to deal with, and I don't know if it is intentional or unintentional, this is by helping him check the wound, by the way, to see the situation in his body, if he did not practice Wu Zhi's Crazy Dragon Sword Technique, then I am afraid that he will be discovered immediately at this time.
Luo Xin retracted his internal strength, sighed slightly, and said: "Your injury, you can only use intermittent ointment, but unfortunately it is not easy to refine intermittent ointment now, and there are not many in the entire Ten Thousand Sword City now, I don't want to use it directly for personal gain, but a while ago, I discussed with the elders to choose someone among your younger generation to preside over this sword sacrifice conference, if you perform well, you can get an intermittent ointment, or I recommend you to go to the virtuous son-in-law, if you want to come to your ability, they should have no reason to refuse." β
Fang Xing was helpless, so he could only nod yes. Sure enough, even with the identity of Wu Zhi, the uncle of Ten Thousand Sword City, he couldn't easily use the elixir like the intermittent ointment, but he didn't know how long this sword sacrifice conference would take, if he couldn't get the medicine before his meridians were broken, then he would have wasted his hard work.
After that, Luo Xin asked Fang Xing to go back and wait for his news.
"By the way, Xiaoyue hasn't seen you for a few days, you should go back and reunite with him, and strive to let me hold my grandson as soon as possible is the right thing. Before leaving, he also instructed Fang Xing.
Fang Xing could only nod awkwardly, and then left in a gloomy manner, Fang Xing really didn't know how to face Wu Zhi's wife, the best thing was not to meet it, otherwise it would be difficult to guarantee that this closest person would not find any clues, Fang Xing had a headache about this problem.
Fang Xing thought about it, but he didn't think about how to face it, his wife Wu Zhi, it seems that he can only live in the study temporarily tonight. Wu Zhi, as the uncle of Wanjian City, had his own courtyard, and after Fang Xing returned to his courtyard, he went into the study and never came out.
