Chapter 20: A Gamble of Ten Gold Baht
Ji Feng walked towards Guanghua City, Jing Hanyu, who fell to the ground, slowly stood up, gritted his teeth to suppress the blood on his left arm, and on the way, there were four 'farmers' who were originally carrying burdens and pushing carts to put down their work, took out the medicine in their arms and ran to Jing Hanyu's body, and offered it respectfully. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
A trace of worry flashed in the eyes of the young man in Tsing Yi in the carriage, and then the curtain was lowered. But after the boy lowered the curtain for a while, there was a sound of heavy footsteps behind the carriage, like a high-headed horse galloping by, but the footsteps were a little muffled, not as crisp as the sound of horses' hooves.
At this time, a strong man with a height of eight feet ran from the road, this person had a tiger's back and a bear's waist, his arms were the thickness of ordinary people's calves, and each muscle was very thick, like a raised mountain bag, and he had a strong momentum to pull out the mountain, if it weren't for the fact that his square face was a little immature, he would not have associated this person with a teenager anyway.
The young man in Tsing Yi in the carriage didn't see anyone coming, but a disdainful sneer came out of his mouth.
Ji Feng walked into Guanghua City, but found that it was not lively, this was originally a quiet small city, but today it was lively like a festival, and there was noise in every corner, as if the mole that had been lurking underground for a long time once crawled to the ground.
Ji Feng didn't like this kind of noise very much, but this kind of noise can often make a person forget how lonely he is, Ji Feng walked towards the famous sword gate, passing by a gambling house in the city.
Guanghua City is not popular gambling, most people enjoy the leisure of watching the play, so the only gambling house in the city is also very low-key, although the door of the gambling house has been wide open, but the door has never been lively, the lively is the gambling house, today the gambling house is abnormal, in the door of the gambling house erected nine three-foot-long signs.
The sign reads "Rong Qingyou", "Guan Yuansheng", "Jing Hanyu", "Quan Yunhan", and "Zong Li...... The names of the nine people, among them, Rong Qingyou, Guan Yuansheng and Ji Feng knew each other, but I saw that there was still a word written under their names, one to two, one to nine.
Ji Feng didn't know what this was for, but he felt that it had something to do with the fact that the number of people going to Guanghua City today was much more abnormal, and after turning a few streets and alleys, Ji Feng came to the more secluded Mingjian Gate in the east of the city.
As soon as he walked into the sect, Ji Feng found that it was the master of the sect who was training routinely, but today's reprimand was a little different from the past, all the swordsmen were standing under the hands of the master of the sect, and their faces were rare and solemn, Ji Feng saw that Xiao Yi was also among them, and his face was not so much solemn as gloomy.
Seeing Ji Feng coming, there was a trace of dissatisfaction in the eyes of the door master Xun Chengyun, but he didn't say much and only let Ji Feng stand in his place, Ji Feng thought that he would be punished again, but he didn't know that today the door master seemed to be extraordinarily tolerant, but the door master's tolerance made the other disciples blush.
Ji Feng looked back, Guan Yuansheng stared at himself fiercely, as if he gritted his teeth with hatred, after Master Xiao Yi taught Guan Yuansheng a lesson, he restrained a lot, today seems to be a little abnormal, Ji Feng sneered back, Guan Yuansheng cleaned up his face and turned his gaze, but the yin owl was still there. Standing next to Guan Yuansheng, the eyes of Baili Guihai were a little erratic, and it was difficult to understand good and evil.
“... This is the prosperous era of the famous sword gate for decades, the immortal master is going to come to Guanghua City to select disciples, you must do your best, in order to get the attention of the immortal master, this time the immortal master is selected among the disciples of the three cities, don't embarrass the famous sword gate. ”
Ji Feng was stunned, no wonder Guanghua City was very lively, it turned out that there was an immortal master coming, and the surge in teenagers coming to Guanghua City was also because the immortal master wanted to select disciples in the famous sword gate. However, at this time, Ji Feng did not have the previous respect for the immortal master, and since he saw the big claw that reached the sky, it had completely subverted the world in Ji Feng's heart.
Xun Chengyun's words only said this, and did not say it again, the rest should be to let their respective masters tell each other, Ji Feng followed Xiao Yi back, neither of them spoke, Xiao Yi has not had a smile on his face recently, it seems that he has changed a person, and he has not changed back to his original appearance in the past five days.
"Ji Feng, this time is very important, I want to explain something to you. Xiao Yi's face was a little serious, Xiao Yi said to himself, this has not changed,
"It's not easy for a person to live the way he likes, because no one can be completely comfortable, I like the quiet life in Guanghua City, but sometimes if you want to live quietly for a few years, you even need to pay a lifetime of hustle and bustle.
I don't know if you can understand what I'm saying now, but time like this is really running out, and even if you don't understand it, you have to write it down and memorize it. ”
Ji Feng had never seen Xiao Yi look at himself so seriously, solemnly as if he was explaining the future, Ji Feng looked at Xiao Yi's eyes and nodded, he really didn't understand Xiao Yi's words, Ji Feng was already very satisfied with his current life and didn't want to change.
"There are very few people who can be protected by one person, whether you have the supreme force in the world or the greatest power in the world, isn't it true that the King of Brave Warriors can't save a ruin in the end. I used to only want to protect two people, one of whom died, and the other I can't protect now.
Recently, the Four Cities Sect will have a competition, and the Immortal Master will pick out the best disciples, and then enter the Immortal Gate. People are not truly at ease, and they cannot protect the people they want to protect, but immortals may have.
If you can join the Xianmen, it is the Donghua Gate..."
"Donghua Gate?" Ji Feng was shocked.
"Do you know Donghua Gate?" Xiao Yi was slightly surprised, Ji Feng knew more than he thought.
Ji Feng shook his head, when he came back this time, he wanted to ask Xiao Yi, but unexpectedly, this immortal master was related to Donghua Gate.
"Although there is no news of Donghuamen in the world, there are actually shadows of Donghuamen everywhere, but they disdain to have too much intersection with people in the world.
They set up Mingyuan Temple and similar sects of the famous sword sect in each city, even if the tragedy of the slaughter of the city occurred during the war, they did not dare to move the Mingyuan Temple, it was because there was Donghua Gate behind the Mingyuan Temple, and the means of the immortal master were not something that mortals could speculate on.
Unhwa Castle, the capital of Izumo Kingdom, was originally known as Cloud Castle, which was renamed after the founding of the Kingdom of King Yumu, and there is also the shadow of Donghua Gate behind it..."
"I'm going to enter Donghua Gate. Ji Feng said softly.
Xiao Yi was surprised again, Ji Feng's voice was not heavy, but it was very firm, and it seemed that it could not be denied. This was the first time Ji Feng had made such a brave decision, Xiao Yi suddenly smiled, and his face that had been sunk for so long was the first time he smiled.
"Since you have decided, I will say some of the rules of this competition, this time the immortal master will only choose one disciple from the disciples of the four cities, and these disciples are all selected from the major factions in each city, because these sects are the forces of Donghua Gate, if it is not the people in the sect who want to join, it is okay, but it is necessary to defeat the disciples in the sect.
The competition is a confrontation between sects, each sect will send seven disciples, it is a ring battle, the person standing at the end is the disciple selected by the immortal master, the famous sword gate is different from the Mingyuan Temple, the Mingyuan Temple selects the disciples with excellent talent and strong immortal fate for the Donghua Gate, and the sects of the famous sword gate are the strong-willed people selected for the Donghua Gate. ”
Listening to Xiao Yi's words, Ji Feng's brows furrowed, such a ring battle is very unfair, it is almost impossible for the disciples in the front to fight to the end, not only because their physical strength will decline, but also because they are easy to find out their flaws, and the disciples who are in the back have a much greater chance of winning.
Obviously, seeing Ji Feng's concerns, Xiao Yi shook his head slightly, "The ranking of the disciples in this sect is arranged by the sect master, usually the door master will give me some face, but on top of this matter, he will not back down a bit, this matter is too important, so you can only rely on yourself." ”
Ji Feng sneaked out of the famous sword gate at night and ran to Baili Guichen's residence, there were two more captains at the door of Baili Guichen, but this couldn't stop Ji Feng, climbed onto the eaves, and slipped into Baili Guichen's house after a few tosses.
After a while, the two teenagers turned out from the eaves together, and after a while, they ran out of the distance, and the two captains guarding the door did not notice it at all, and Xu Lao, who was standing at the door, saw the two teenagers who were walking, and sighed softly but did not stop them.
The two of them stepped on the roof, up and down, and after a while they jumped to a row of blue-tiled huts near the river, although the west of the city almost stayed awake tonight, but the east of the city near the river was still quiet.
It was night, the moonlight was slightly subdued, and the two teenagers sat side by side on the roof of the small building, and the stage they collapsed not far away was still a little unnatural although it had been renovated, and the waves of the stream were the only sound in the night.
Baili Guichen couldn't help but laugh when he saw the dilapidated appearance of the stage, breaking the silence here, and after a while, Ji Feng also laughed, at that time they were burdened with the infamy of all the fans in the city.
"Guanghua City is really nice. Baili Guichen said softly.
"Yes. ”
"Where have you been these days? Guanghua City has been very lively these days. ”
"I'm going home, in two days, Donghuamen will choose a disciple. Ji Feng said, his lowered voice still had an indescribable excitement.
Xu Lao said. ”
"I must join Donghuamen. Ji Feng said very firmly, he must join Donghuamen, and then find out the situation of his parents and the traces of his grandfather.
"Donghua Gate should be beautiful, right?"
"I don't know. ”
"Guanghua City is also very beautiful. Baili Guichen said softly again.
This is the second time that Baili Guichen has talked about Guanghua City.
Ji Feng suddenly remembered that Baili Guichen was an 'immortal abandoned son', and he would never be able to enter the immortal gate for the rest of his life, and his father Baili Jingye was moved here, which was an edict issued by the national teacher himself, and he might only be able to live in Guanghua City in this life, and Baili Guichen hoped that he would stay.
Ji Feng didn't know what to say, if he joined Donghuamen, it would be impossible to stay in Guanghua City. I was so happy today, I suddenly knew where Donghuamen went, and found that I had a way to find my parents and grandfather, so I was anxious to find a hundred miles to return to dust to share my joy, but I forgot the wound of a hundred miles to return to dust.
The two of them quieted down like this, neither of them spoke, and sat quietly for a long time, Baili suddenly stood up, jumped off the roof, and said loudly to Ji Feng:
"Follow me. ”
Ji Feng didn't know what was going on, so he had to hurry up, Baili Guichen ran very fast in front, running all the way from the east of the city to the city, until the surroundings slowly became lively, and the voices began to be noisy, Baili Guichen stopped panting, this time the two of them ran away from the school captain last time, and they ran half of the city at once.
Ji Feng only found out at this time that the place where Baili Guichen brought him was actually the gambling house that he passed by during the day, only to see Baili Guichen holding his breath and walking to the door, and suddenly knocked on the door of the gambling house three times.
Until all the people around looked over, and even when some people from the gambling house were ready to stop the trouble, Baili Guichen shouted loudly:
"In this competition, I bet ten gold baht, betting that Ji Feng alone will win, all the people on these brands will lose, only he can win!" said Baili Guichen and took out ten gold baht and lined up on the table at the door.
The gamblers were shocked when they saw it, even the owner of the gambling house was shocked, Guanghua City is just a small city, usually a small gambling pleasure, copper baht gambling is the most common, silver baht is already a rare rich man, a shot is ten gold baht in such a small city is rare to see.
When everyone else looked at Baili Guichen, Baili Guichen looked at Ji Feng and smiled lightly.
