Chapter 8: The Duel between the Two Heroes
Since ancient times, all those who practice martial arts have been strong and aggressive.
Zhao Tianhe and Li Xiaoyun didn't want to lose in front of many senior brothers and masters, as well as all the seniors in the door, and the two of them were united in their hearts, their luck was concentrated, and they began to compete. Zhao Tianhe held the sword in his right hand and the hilt of the sword in his left hand, although he was not very old, he felt that he had the demeanor of everyone. Li Xiaoyun held the sword in his left hand, the blade of the sword pointed obliquely, his long body was jade, and he was indescribably handsome and chic.
At this time, Ni Haixin took Jin Jian and Luo Jiangbei to see the excitement, Luo Jiangbei felt quite happy when he saw so many people watching, so he said to Jin Jian: "Senior Brother Jin, do you think which of them can win?"
Jin Jian hesitated slightly: "I think Zhao Tianhe will win?"
Luo Jiangbei asked, "Yes, why are you optimistic about Zhao Tianhe?"
Jin Jian saw that Ni Haixin also looked at him inquiringly, so he said: "You don't know Zhao Tianhe, I'm still quite familiar, his kung fu is very solid, Li Xiaozi shouldn't be an opponent." β
Luo Jiangbei pouted and said: "I think Li boy will win, this kid is scheming, or let's bet and I'll open a handicap." β
He grew up in Luoyang City Flower World since he was a child, and he was about to get sick in Tianjianmen for half a year, and he was very happy to encounter such an opportunity today, so he shouted and drank and began to gamble, and this time the audience was even more lively, the people in Jintang and Mutang were betting on Zhao Tianhe, and the people in Shuitang and Huotang were betting on Li Xiaoyun, and there was no unified position in Tutang, and the elders of Tianjianmen watched the young disciples gambling here and winning or losing and did not blame them, and they were happy to watch the excitement.
The shouting and shouting from the audience was very lively, but the two people on the stage were not affected at all, Li Xiaoyun attacked a sword first, and Zhao Tianhe also made a move. As Jin Jian said, Zhao Tianhe's kung fu is too solid, he himself is an orphan who grew up in the door since he was a child, he is born with a stable personality, and he is also a good material for practicing martial arts, and he has been placed great hopes on Tianjianmen since he was a child; Li Xiaoyun is not good at stubble, he is the only boy in the family, since he was a child, his father was very strict with him and personally taught him the kung fu of Tianjianmen, and his mother came from the famous Nangong family in Jiangnan, so he has two schools of martial arts, and he has been fighting in the dart game since he was a child, and the martial artists who often pestered the dart bureau have nothing to do to teach him martial arts, and he has slowly accumulated and learned a lot of high tricksγ
As soon as the connoisseur stretched out his hand, he knew if there was any, and the two of them were worthy of being the leaders of the younger generation, and their bodies were fast and fast, attacking as fast as lightning, and defending as Mount Tai. Zhao Tianhe's Heavenly Sword Gate Kung Fu was steady and steady, Li Xiaoyun's strange moves were endless, all the brothers and sisters who watched applauded, and the masters and seniors in the door nodded again and again. After the two competed in swordsmanship, they began to compete with each other again, Huo Xiaofan always felt that his mixed yuan palm had been practiced very skillfully, but when he saw Zhao Tianhe perform a few moves, he knew that this most basic mixed yuan palm could be practiced so domineering and strong, and he was ashamed in his heart, in fact, it was not just him, many people in the audience, especially the disciples of Tutang, watching these two people compete, they felt that they were too weak, although they were also senior brothers, but the gap was almost one heaven and one underground.
The two fought for nearly a hundred rounds, although there was no winner or loser, but the discerning person had already seen that Li Xiaoyun was at a disadvantage, after all, Zhao Tianhe was two years older than him, and his internal strength was slightly thicker, but Li Xiaoyun did not panic and showed defeat, he suddenly had an idea, only to see him suddenly take a step back and then shout in his mouth to look at the palm with a move in the door, Zhao Tianhe was too familiar with this move, he said in his heart: '' You're going to fight with me for the last time.,But I'm two years older than you.,You're going to suffer a loss in fighting for internal strength.γγ The thought flashed through his mind, and he immediately came to the exact same move, and he was about to have a hard fight with Li Xiaoyun when his double-palm exercise was launched.
When he saw Zhao Tianhe come over, he suddenly led the internal force, and made a trick taught by his mother to "transfer flowers and trees", which directly brought Zhao Tianhe's figure to a stumbling figure, and then re-launched his own skills. After all, Zhao Tianhe's solid practical experience in kung fu is too little, and he unknowingly fell for Li Xiaoyun's move. But his kung fu is indeed not ambiguous, he took advantage of the situation to support the ground with his hands, and his legs suddenly kicked out under his head and feet, Li Xiaoyun originally wanted to make up for it, but he didn't have a chance to come forward again.
The senior master in the door was afraid that there would be a mistake if he continued to fight, so he ordered the two of them to stop, which was considered an equal share, regardless of victory or defeat. Luo Jiangbei smiled and shouted: "Today, the dealer has won all the winners." Everyone scolded the dealer for being too dark, but they didn't expect to lose the winner, so both groups of people lost.
After the competition ended, everyone dispersed and went back to their own courtyards, Yakaba and Ye Kai were still unsatisfied, and the two of them were still comparing the tricks they had learned from watching the competition just now, and when they went back, they found Huo Xiaofan depressed.
Ye Kai asked: "Why is Xiao Fan unhappy, did you also go to gamble just now." β
Huo Xiaofan said: "How can I have money to gamble, do you know what Zhao Tianhe came from, his martial arts are also very powerful, and he even had a tie with Li Xiaoyun." β
Ye Kai said a little proudly: "You have to ask me about this, speaking of this Zhao Tianhe, he is still more related to us, he is our master's junior brother, and the master is one, that is, Zhao Taiji, an elder-level figure in this sect." This Zhao Tianhe is said to be extremely talented, born with materials for martial arts training, and is a closed disciple of Elder Zhao Taiji. β
Huo Xiaofan said suspiciously: "No, if this Zhao Tianhe should be our senior uncle according to what you said, he shouldn't learn martial arts with us anymore, wouldn't this be a mess of generations." β
Ye Kai said again: "You're right, but don't you think about it, when we first started, we said that in five years, the new head of the sect will transfer five of the best disciples among us as descendants. According to the regulations of the Heavenly Sword Sect over the years, only the descendants of the head of the sect can be qualified to go to a mysterious holy place to learn martial arts, where there is the most essential martial arts of the Heavenly Sword Sect, as long as they come out of a place, they will become peerless masters. Therefore, although Zhao Tianhe is a disciple of Zhao Taiji, he is not willing to give up the opportunity to enter the mysterious holy land. β
Huo Xiaofan said: "Who are you listening to? οΌβ
Ye Kai said proudly: "You don't care who you listen to, this news is definitely not groundless. β
Huo Xiaofan said: "There are five people in total, and now Jin Jian, Luo Jiangbei, and Li Xiaoyun have added Zhao Tianhe, and there is only one place left." The remaining fifty or so disciples are going to compete for a place... I'm afraid it's too hard. β
Yakaba said: "Xiao Fan, I think you are the most promising among the three of us or in our Tutang, don't look at them now, but isn't there still four years, maybe you can stand out in four years, isn't it three fat?"
Ye Kai hurriedly nodded and said, "Yes, yes, I can't do it, what I'm thinking about now is not to be brushed down for the first time, so that I can be regarded as a disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect in the end." β
"Hmph... It's a shame that you are still martial arts practitioners, and I am really ashamed to live in the same room with you, and I bothered to teach you how to use secret weapons, it turned out to be a group of people with no ambitions. Nie Meng said as he walked in.
Ye Kai asked angrily: "Why are you eavesdropping on us again?"
Nie Meng said, "You think that I am willing to eavesdrop on your words, but it is all discouraged words, people with no great ambitions. β
Yaqaba shouted, "Don't be so ugly, be careful that I'm not polite to you." β
Nie Meng ignored their anger and continued: "Let's practice martial arts, don't say that you have just started practicing, even if you have decades of skills, you still have to know that there is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world, is it because there are people who are stronger than us that we dare not move forward, and we rest on our laurels and feel sorry for ourselves? What is the use of you just sighing here ...
Huo Xiaofan's faces were red, and they were all embarrassed by what he said. After a while, Yaqaba said, "Nemon. Although you don't usually like to talk and want to be like a woman, these words make a lot of sense, and I've taught you.
Ye Kai also said with a shy stomach: "Well, it's better to listen to your words, and it's better to read ten years... β
Huo Xiaofan also has the feeling of being empowered, he is too entangled in the achievements of others, in fact, as long as he puts in the effort and constantly surpasses himself, why always compare with others, he didn't say much, he just said: "Thank you. But since then, no matter what difficulties Huo Xiaofan encounters on the road to martial arts, no matter how strong the opponent he encounters, his mood is extremely peaceful, and these words often spur him to keep moving forward until he reaches the peak of martial arts...
There was not much time left before the first assessment, Huo Xiaofan and the three of them no longer had any hope for Zhao Wuyi, they could only desperately cultivate internal skills and martial arts obtained from Fuxiang Valley, and at the same time, Nie Meng did not break his promise, and secretly taught them some techniques for sending and connecting hidden weapons, so that the three brothers could also learn with relish.
Huo Xiaofan, who had finished practicing martial arts in the afternoon of this day, secretly went down the mountain without saying hello to the others, because he remembered that today was his grandfather's death day, so he ran down the mountain to buy paper money. When he came back, it was already dark, and he didn't think about going back to burn paper for fear of provoking right and wrong, so he turned around and came to a nameless col to burn paper and incense. A year has passed in a blink of an eye, Huo Xiaofan has a feeling of dreaming, remembering the small mountain village where he grew up, his grandfather and his cottage seem to be still in front of him, he once vowed not to shed a single tear again, but when he remembered the past, the tears fell uncontrollably.
Huo Xiaofan thought that he couldn't cry anymore, so he muttered to himself: "Grandpa, Xiaofan misses you so much. I don't know how you're doing over there. Do you know, I have started to learn martial arts now, and I am making rapid progress, and I have lived up to the skills you passed on to me. β
He said that he had slapped a set of mixed yuan palms in the placket of his clothes, because now his jade-breaking skills have reached the fourth layer, and he is also vigorous with this set of ordinary palm techniques, and he is quite imposing. After a set of punches, he knelt aside again and burned the remaining paper money, when a gust of wind blew the burning paper money to the ground, and Huo Xiaofan was also blown goosebumps by the wind. He hurried to hold the branch and press the paper money, but in the midst of his confusion, he saw an old man with gray hair and beard walking out of the shadows without a word. This time Huo Xiaofan screamed, his scalp was numb and his hair almost stood up, and he said tremblingly: "Grandpa, is it you?
