Chapter 8: The Teenagers of the Assembly (4)
The ninth day of September is the annual Double Ninth Festival, which is an excellent day for mountaineering, and it is also a big day for the 12 views of Taichen to hold a conference every three years.
At this time, the disciples of the crowd have gathered on the Mount Tai Feng Zen platform, they hold high the banner that represents the characteristics of each view, floating in the air, like colorful auspicious clouds, the disciples of each view are full of spirit, such as a dragon out of the water, all look up at the peak of Mount Tai, and have infinite respect in their hearts.
Siyunguan and the others were also among them, in addition to the three disciples who participated in the conference, there were also some disciples who came to strengthen the momentum and encourage them, they followed the head of Jinping to this place early and settled in a specific location of Siyunguan.
["I miss this place so much."] Ziyang's eyes were closed, and he took a deep breath of the king's breath that permeated here, and sighed in his heart that the peach blossoms were still beyond recognition. ]
["Back then, the three Qing people of Ziyang and Shaoyang Palace met here to compete, and I really hated that I could not be born hundreds of years earlier to witness the duel between the two top masters in the world at that time, it must be ancient and earth-shattering. Being in the legendary Mount Tai Feng Zen Platform can't help but make the young and vigorous Duan Xiyun feel excited, surging and leisurely. ]
["It's just a pity that our contest was not finished. Ziyang reminisced about the infinite emotion of the year. ]
["Don't worry, Ziyang, I believe that you will definitely find another opponent like the Three Pure Truths in this world, and then you will definitely have a great battle, so as to participate in the highest realm of the Dao. Duan Xiyun said innocently. ]
[Ziyang looked at Duan Xiyun's heart, and turned countless thoughts in his heart, and said with a slight smile: "I believe that this day will come sooner or later......]
Before the people of the True Martial Arts Temple arrived, the news of Shangguan Rui's participation in the Present Realm Conference had already spread like a tide among the other disciples present at this time, and the disciples were all discussing: "I heard that Shangguan Rui of the Wenshi Sect worshiped the True Martial Arts Sect and came down to participate in the Ten Thousand Views Conference of the Present Realm, I wonder why he is interested in the assembly of our Taichen Twelve Views?"
"It seems that this year's champion is none other than Zhenwu. ”
"Shangguan Rui just has a good reputation, no one has ever understood his real strength, most of the rumors on the rivers and lakes are exaggerated and untrue, he may not be as powerful as the legend, everyone should not grow up others to destroy their prestige. ”
In addition to Duan Xiyun, there was another person in the field who knew Shangguan Rui's true strength, that is, Xu Leping of the three-star view of Longhu Mountain in one of the places on the field, he heard the rumors and said: "Could it really be that he will come to the Wanguan Conference?" The rumors on the rivers and lakes are not exaggerated at all, Shangguan Rui's skills are even more powerful than the legend, but this is exactly what I want, I finally found a decent opponent at the Wanguan Conference, last time I was careless and missed the enemy's tricks, this time it will definitely not be ......."
Soon, the people in the Zhenwu Temple, who had been waiting for a long time, finally arrived, and the eyes of the whole audience were focused on them. The mighty procession of Zhenwuguan stopped when they passed the position of the person in Siyunguan, and Yide and Jinping greeted each other.
And Shangguan Rui's pace stopped in front of Duan Xiyun, his sharp gaze came directly and met Duan Xiyun's gaze, the two did not speak, their eyes did not give in to each other, and there seemed to be bursts of sparks in the middle, and the eyes of the whole audience were focused on the two of them.
The voices of discussion resounded one after another from the disciples of various factions: "He is the legendary peak closest to the Dao, the grandson of Shangguan Tianyu, the head of the Wenshi Sect, who is known as Shangguan Rui, the Jiaozi of the East China Sea!"
"Xu Leping, who was Shaoyang last year, is now a Shangguan Rui again, it seems that we have no play at this year's Wanguan Conference. ”
"I didn't expect Shangguan Rui to be such a handsome young man with a lot of literary qualities!"
"Is such a white-faced kid really as powerful as the legend is?"
"Pray to God forbid not to run into him in the first round......"
The people in Siyun Guan are also talking about what the relationship between Duan Xiyun and Shangguan Rui is, the disciple Qingyuan has heard in Jinjiling that Shangguan Rui will come to the Wanguan Conference, and he has always been a little suspicious at first, but now when he saw Shangguan Rui in front of him, he believed Duan Xiyun's words, and said in his heart: "Shangguan Rui really joined the True Martial Arts Temple for Senior Brother Yun and came to the Wanguan Conference, but Senior Brother Yun's cultivation may not be above me, I really don't understand how with his current strength how can Shangguan Rui care so much?" In any case, this year's Wanguan Conference will definitely be more exciting than the previous conferences. ”
And there is also a rumor in the True Martial Arts Temple, that is, the purpose of Shangguan Rui's coming to the Wanguan Conference is to compete with a certain disciple in the Siyun Temple, and the disciple looks from Shangguan Rui's gaze, and he can't believe that the person in front of him is actually an innocent young man of the same age as Shangguan Rui, and he is actually the person Shangguan Rui has always cared about in his heart. Hui Ying walked over and said in the same surprise: "You are the Duan Xiyun of Siyunguan! An opponent whose strength is unfathomable and makes Shangguan Rui unforgettable, I am really looking forward to your competition." "A person who does not hesitate to let Shangguan Rui come to the True Martial Arts Temple and be coldly looked at, a person who is the only opponent of Shangguan Rui, is he really that powerful?
Qing Xuan looked at the handsome young man with sharp eyes in front of him, and he could see that the disciples of the various views were just floating clouds in his eyes, and the shadow of only one person in his eyes from beginning to end was Duan Xiyun, and Hui Ying's words echoed in his ears: "An opponent whose strength is unfathomable, and Shangguan Rui will never forget." Her heart seemed to be dripping with blood: "Why does Shangguan Rui even look at him differently, what kind of charm does he have that can make all beings fall for him?"
At this time, the disciples of the two factions of Zhenwu Siyun were distinct, and their momentum hit each other's eyes, and they had already smelled a strong smell of gunpowder before the competition began.
Soon, the Zhenwu audience also came to their specific location and settled down.
Soon the last team is finally going to enter the field, they can be said to be today's master Taishan's Yuquan view of the people, they raise the view up and down to come to the grand momentum can be said to overwhelm any faction, the head of the Yuquan view is the mirror of the mirror of the real person, only to see his hair color black but the cheeks fluttering is a silver silk long beard, plus the ruddy face makes people guess his real age, but from his black and white refined eyes can be seen that he is a very thoughtful person. Although there are many people in Yuquan Temple, under the leadership of Jingxin, the queue is clear and orderly, and it does not appear chaotic at all.
The pace of the people in the Yuquan Temple also stopped before passing through the Siyun Temple. Jingxin smiled and hugged his fists and said: "Brother Jinping has not seen his demeanor for three years, and his demeanor has not diminished at all, which is gratifying." ”
"Brother Jingxin smiled, seeing that you are as strong as Zihao on the top, and the spirit is even better than back then, which made the poor people envious. Jin Ping also smiled like a spring and hugged his fists and said.
Jingxin approached Jin Ping's side with a cordial attitude and whispered: "At the Ten Thousand Views Conference in the Present World, my Yuquan View will definitely make Siyunguan a failure." ”
Jin Ping smiled and said softly, "Each other, each other." ”
In the eyes of others, the two exchanged ears and looked intimate, thinking that they had a very good relationship, but in fact they were not in harmony with each other, their talents were similar, they were friends and opponents, from the time of being disciples to the competition between each other, they were obsessed with the victory or defeat of the competition.
The two parted after a series of fights. And Yuquanguan has a female disciple among the Yuanzi disciples who participated in this year's competition, and Yuanying is a genius girl who is more talented than a boy in Yuquanguan, she came to the person she cared about in her heart, Qingxuan, her expression was like an aggressive challenge book: "The genius girl of Siyunguan, it has been three years, and it is finally our turn to play at the Wanguan Conference in this world, and I am very much looking forward to competing with you on the same stage." ”
Qing Xuan clenched her fists like a knife when she heard this, and she would definitely pay tribute to her opponent with the four words "let the horse come" in her usual life, but at this time she just lowered her head and didn't say a word, because the genius girl in the hearts of others has missed the Wanguan Conference in the present world.
Yuan Ying also felt strange that Qing Xuan, who had always been arrogant, would be silent at this moment, Qing Song was angry when he saw Qing Xuan's appearance, and came to Yuan Ying's side and said softly: "Senior Sister Yuan Ying, you don't know, Qing Xuan's qualifications have been replaced by others. ”
"Could it be that Siyunguan has produced a great character in recent years and has actually compared Qing Xuan?" Yuan Ying exclaimed when he heard this.
"No, no, no, that person is far inferior to Senior Sister Qingxuan in terms of strength, it's just that he relied on his relationship with Uncle Jin Ming's uncle and nephew to secretly use tricks and tricks to seize the position that originally belonged to Senior Sister Qingxuan. Qing Song hated Duan Xiyun for deliberately distorting the facts and malignantly slandering.
Yuan Ying has a strong personality and is most unaccustomed to those despicable villains who have no real talent and real learning and will only make conspiracy methods, a pair of sword eyebrows flying obliquely are even more heroic, she stared at the person with green pine fingers "Duan Xiyun", and her voice snorted with a reborn nose: "If such a villain is met by me in the martial arts platform, he must be beaten all over the ground to find teeth." ”
Then the Yuquan Guanzhong came to the center of the field, Jingxin Zhenren straightened the collar of his coat like his waist plate like a knife cut into a straight line, the whole person was more radiant and powerful, his shining eyes looked around the audience, and then hugged his fists in all directions and finally spoke: "Friends gather in Mount Tai today to make Yuquan Peng shine, and I really feel inexhaustible in the next." Our 12 views of Taichen have always been the same qi and branches, and they have taken care of each other for hundreds of years, but the various views are scattered all over the country, and the famous caves are far away from each other, and it is often difficult to get together, so the ancestors set the rule to hold a meeting of ten thousand views every three years, so that the elite disciples who will be the pillars of each view in the future can meet friends with martial arts to promote exchanges and consolidate the friendship of each view. Today is a good day for our Taichen Twelve Views Triennial Ten Thousand Views Conference, which has been a grand event that has continued for hundreds of years, and there is not much to say in the next, the old rule is now to ask the head of each view to move forward and draw lots to determine the opponent of the first battle. ”
Zhenwuguan Yide Zhenren, Zijin Concept Gao Zhenren, Qiyunguan Rirong Zhenren, Beidou Guanguangyi Zhenren, Samsung Guanlanxin Zhenren, Longfeng Guanshijing Zhenren, Siyunguan Jinping Zhenren, Moling Guan Zhaolong Zhenren, Xiping Guan Ruiquan Zhenren, Yunlongguan Qiming Zhenren, Qingxu Guanwenhua Zhenren, Yuquan Guanjingxin Zhenren, they walked to each other and made polite gestures to each other, and did not hesitate to pick up the small flag rolled into a strip on the desk, and then unfolded each other, the small pennant was not clever on it, just clearly embroidered with a black number.
The rules of the draw are actually very simple, the flag is embroidered with numbers from one to six, and if the same number is drawn, it is the opponent of the first battle.
The numbers of the colored flags in the hands of the leaders are as follows: Nian Gao and Rirong Zhenren won one character together; Guangyi and Shijing Zhenren won two characters together; Yide and Lanxin Zhenren won three characters together; Jinping and Jingxin Zhenren won four characters together; Zhaolong and Ruiquan Zhenren won five characters together; Qiming and Wenhua Zhenren won six characters together.
As soon as the lottery results came out, the audience was in an uproar, because the four Taoist temples with the best average scores over the years had already been matched in the first round, namely Zhenwu Guan against Sanxingguan, and Siyun Guan against Yuquan Guan, which is undoubtedly an arrangement in the dark.
