Guo Yaotai observed his face and distinguished, and he already vaguely knew a thing or two, but this sentence was said by Zhuang Xinghe himself, which still shocked him, and he hurriedly said: "Can Master Zhuang see the appearance of this person?"

Zhuang Xinghe sighed and said: "At that time, in the dark night, this person was covered with a black cloth again, I don't know what he looks like, but I can vaguely see that this person is about thirty years old. ”

Guo Yaotai pondered: "In his thirties, it shouldn't be Senior Brother Zhong, right? But Senior Brother Zhong is an upright person, how could he do something to poison the disciples of Hengshan?" For a while, he had mixed feelings, first the six disciples of the Hengshan faction were attacked, and then he heard that the Hengshan faction was dangerously poisoned. He said angrily, "Who is ruining the reputation of my Taishan faction?"

At this time, the disciples of the Hengshan faction arrived one after another, and Zhao Hanqing, Qian Sanyuan, Sun Lihui and others hurriedly stepped forward to greet them, and the disciples of Hengshan were indifferent and seemed to have resentment.

The disciples of the Hengshan faction have not yet sat down, and a group of people have poured up the mountain, there are forty or fifty people, each with different colors, miscellaneous, at a glance it can be seen that it is a high-roller from all walks of life, most of them Guo Yaotai has never known, he thought: "The news of my Wuyue Sword Sect's Jade Emperor Peak Sword Contest is not spread, why are there so many martial arts people coming up to the mountain?" But since they came, they couldn't be a little lazy, and said: "'Mobei Shuangdiao' has lived outside the fortress for a long time, what kind of wind blew you here, and' Huainan Three Saints' and other heroes and heroes, fortunately will be honored. "Mobei Double Eagle" Helian Peng and Luqiu Yan are the most popular figures in the Saibei area, and they are good at light skills, while the "Three Sages of Huainan" are proficient in swordsmanship and are people in the way of the sword, Luqiu Yan laughed and said: "I heard that these three Huainan Holy Old Men said that the Jade Emperor was lively and looked, and the brothers came up by the way to ask for a glass of water and wine to drink. "There are no tables and chairs for people from other factions to sit outside the temple, Taishan sent disciples to move out of the stools to let Qunhao sit in front and back, and many people from the rivers and lakes have come one after another, the tables and chairs in the Jade Emperor Temple have all been moved out, still not enough to sit, so I have to take some cloth and satin to spread on the ground, and will sit down.

The time is approaching, and the words of the participating group of heroes have gradually calmed down, but there has been no trace of Bai, a disciple of the Huashan faction, Guo Yaotai is worried in his heart: "Isn't there something wrong with the Huashan faction?" Just as he was about to tell Zhao Hanqing to go down the mountain to see, one person turned out of the path and said apologetically: "Yun is late, forgive me." "It is the head of the Chinese faction who is thousands of miles. Qunhao heard the words and looked at him one after another, only to see him with a Chinese face, wearing a wide purple robe, with big sleeves fluttering, just like everyone's demeanor.

Yun Wanli and the disciples of the Huashan faction went to the left and sat down next to the disciples of the Songshan faction, and just when it was time for their own cards, the participants calmed down.

Guo Yaotai slowly stood up, saluted each of the four directions, and said loudly: "Thanks to the love of the four major sword factions and heroes from all walks of life, it is really an honor to set the sword competition of the Wuyue Sword Sect at the top of Mount Tai Jade Emperor, so that my Mount Tai faction is full of brilliance, but due to the remoteness of the mountains and the barrenness, the hospitality is not considerate, and I hope that you will be rich." The Quartet said: "Master Guo is too polite." ”

Guo Yaotai paused for a moment and continued: "Sword competition and martial arts, in line with the purpose of learning martial arts and learning from each other's strengths... Guo Yaotai continued: "Comparing swords and martial arts, absorbing the expertise of each family, and then improving oneself, is a rare good opportunity to enhance skills, and it is a dream event for people who practice martial arts, however, the sword has no eyes, once the force is used, it is inevitable that there will be no damage, in view of the lessons of the previous martial arts competitions, I propose that the sword used in this martial arts be changed to a wooden sword, what if you don't like it?" Rong Sangui said loudly: " If you switch to a wooden sword, then most of the victory depends on the strength of the internal force, most of the people with high internal strength win, if which faction is heavy on the sword and light on the internal strength, isn't it a big loss at this time?" Xuan Jizi said: "This is very good, and the use of wooden sword can avoid unnecessary damage." Zhuang Xinghe said: "If you switch to using wooden swords, firstly, some people are accustomed to heavy weapons, and they may not be able to adapt to them for a while; secondly, the swordsmanship of each faction is different, and the swords used are also very different, long or short, thick or thin, it is better to use their own weapons, but they must set the rules in advance, only to the point to the end, if they attack again, they will be judged to lose." Yun Wanli said: "I agree with the opinion of the head of Zhuang, and the point can also reduce unnecessary damage." Guo Yaotai said: "I personally think it is more appropriate to switch to a wooden sword, but what everyone said is very reasonable, if there are concerns about winning with internal force, then in this way, we will only compare swordsmanship, not internal strength, the way of martial arts, is to promote strengths and avoid weaknesses." Lu Qiuyan shouted the loudest: "What's the matter with Master Guo? First of all, he switched to a wooden sword, but the consequences can't make internal force, so what's the point? If I knew this, I might as well stay at home and sleep with my wife." A dozen people in the crowd burst into laughter. Guo Yaotai, out of some kindness, proposed to use a wooden sword instead, but except for a few people such as Xuan Jizi who agreed, the opponents accounted for the vast majority, and he waved his hand, and the group gradually stopped talking. Guo Yaotai said: "Since everyone is unanimously opposed to the use of wooden swords, let's give up, according to the practice of previous years, let's first agree on three chapters of the law: first, each faction in addition to the head or elder, another two disciples are selected to participate in the competition; second, when the sword is contested, until the point is reached, if anyone deliberately injures the opponent, this game will be won or lost; third, the winner of the previous game will retire and rest first, waiting to enter the next round of the competition, what is everyone's objection?" There was silence on the field, and no one made a sound. After a long time, Guo Yaotai said: "Okay! Since everyone has no objections, then each faction will first choose a good candidate for the competition." The people on the venue were sensational, and the people of the five major sects gathered together, and all the disciples gathered around the head and uncle to obey the orders.

After a quarter of an hour, the various factions have already selected candidates, the Songshan faction sent Ding Shaohua and Rong Sangui, the Taishan faction is Zhao Hanqing and Wu Qiushui, the Hengshan faction is Qiao Mengyuan and Gongsun Yun, the Hengshan faction is Nanyinzi and Zhu Baiqian, and the Huashan faction is Zhuo Feilong and Wen Renjun.

The ten disciples were led by a man, and they all walked to the corner of the ring, and a servant had already written serial numbers on the slips of paper of the same size and material, kneaded them into paper balls, and put them into a silver basin, and used the method of drawing lots to determine the opponents and the order of the competition. The Nanyinzi of the Hengshan faction was slightly short, but he was afraid of losing the opportunity and squeezed in front of everyone. How could Rong Sangui, who was walking on the sidelines, show weakness? Five fingers into claws, grabbing the paper ball in Nanyinzi's eyes, it was the "tiger claw skill" of the "Songshan Great Grabler."

Nanyinzi saw that the paper ball was about to come handy, but who knew that he would kill Rong Sangui halfway. Rong Sangui's tiger claws were windy, and he snatched the paper ball, not to mention, if he was really caught, the whole arm had to be crushed for him, and he hurriedly retracted his hand, and put his two fingers in the food, and used a trick in the "rigid and soft fingers" "pear blossom with rain", and pointed to the "Waiguan acupoint" in Rong Sangui's hand. Rong Sangui turned his claws into fists, and with a snort, he slammed towards Nan Yinzi's face door, and Nan Yinzi also shook his hands into fists, and in an instant, the two fists faced each other, and they had received seven or eight moves.

Gongsun Yun, Zhuo Feilong and the others saw that the two were fighting, and they all bypassed their backs to grab the paper balls. Nan Yinzi shouted: "You brute, why are you robbing me? Look! They are almost done with the note!" Nan Yinzi flew over and was about to grab it into the basin, Rong Sangui shouted: "That is mine!" and used a big grappling technique to block Nan Yinzi's way, Nan Yinzi was so angry that he shouted: "Auntie's, you are a mad dog, you are too difficult!" A punch swung at Rong Sangui again. Rong Sangui smiled and said, "Why didn't I see a mad dog? I only saw a dwarf duckling who was anxious." The body was slightly slanted, and he dodged Nan Yinzi's punch. Nan Yinzi was hit by him to the sore spot, and roared again and again: "Who is the dwarf duckling?" Rong Sangui was even more proud: "Whoever is in a hurry is." Nanyinzi attacked with another punch, and Rong Sangui also punched again.

Nan Yinzi and Rong Sangui dismantled their fists next to the paper basin, and the other eight people couldn't get close to get the paper ball.

The two of them punched faster and faster, but they heard a loud bang in the ground, it turned out that when Nanyinzi and Rong Sangui were punching, their footsteps moved, and the two of them kicked the silver basin containing the paper ball at the same time, the silver basin rose into the air, and the paper ball in the basin flew out, and then choked a few times, and the silver basin fell to the ground.

Rong Sangui and Nan Yinzi were startled at the same time, the paper balls had fallen in the air one after another, and a woman in a flower dress in the ring was on tiptoe and flew up, like a butterfly playing with flowers, and the jade hand stretched forward to support one of the paper balls, Zhuo Feilong of the Huashan faction praised: "Hengshan's 'flower and leaf picking'! Senior Sister Qiao, what a handsome kung fu." As he spoke, he took a vertical leap and flew forward to grab a ball of paper. For a while, Ding Shaohua, Wu Qiushui, Zhu Baiqian and others also flew up, each grabbing a paper ball.
