Xue Zao did not return for a day. It was almost evening, Cheng Yitian listened to Wang Yi's words, and went out to look for it again. After looking around for a long time, it was completely dark, and when I returned to Mule and Horse Alley, a figure came out of the street next to me. Cheng Yitian was caught.

After all, without martial arts, Cheng Yitian was suddenly shocked. After a closer look, it turned out to be Xue Zao.

Cheng Yitian was angry and anxious: "What did you do?"

Xue Zao pulled him into the corner: "I completely got rid of the people in the Liang Palace." ”

"Answer my question. ”

"What's the problem?"

"What the hell did you do?"

Looking at each other, Xue Zao was helpless, so he had to explain: "It's nothing, it's just that I put the fire spirit flower at the door of the Liang Palace." Without waiting for Cheng Yitian to be anxious, he immediately raised his voice and continued: "Ordinary people buy flowers, nine pots and nine pots." If you're lucky, you can sell nine pots a day. Bad luck, so many fire spirit flowers, I can't sell a single pot. The royal palace is different. The Crescent Moon League is second only to Tiandu and Canglong, Xinzhou is the main city, and the Liang Palace is wealthy. My idea is that, perhaps, one day can bring us all the Fire Spirit Flowers out of stock. ”

"However, the Liang Palace did not ask for your flowers. ”

Xue Zao was slightly embarrassed: "Yes." ”

"You hit someone?"

"How do you know that?"

"There is no adult, how could the Liang Palace send so many people to arrest you, Princess Ji Lin has come out. ”

Xue Zao sighed for a while, and suddenly grabbed Cheng Yitian's hand: "Brother Cheng, you teach me some more kung fu." Now I, although it is okay to push and beat a few strong men, with so many people besieging me together, I can't handle it. ”

Cheng Yitian stared into his eyes and didn't speak.

"We have to protect ourselves, are you right?" Xue Zao's longing eyes were innocent and pure.

"It's not easy to practice the Qianyuan Gong to the third level," Cheng Yitian was helpless, "If you practice it again, you may not make any progress for several years." ”

"So what do I do now?"

Cheng Yitian bowed his head and was silent, and after a while, he raised his head and said, "Let's go back and rest first, okay?"

The two of them walked back together, and in the dark, Xue Zao's eyes flickered. The second day was fine, and on the third day, the morning market ended, and above the flower market, a person stepped on Xue Zao's tray with many flower pots.

It's cold!

As soon as they saw the cold face that they thought they were superior to, Cheng Yitian and Xue Zao both had a premonition of a sudden crisis.

Especially Xue Zao, deep in his heart, he has a deep fear of his own people. Cold sweat slipped down my back at once. He was about to run, and a cold sword grazed his back and slashed at the back of his neck.

Xue Zao forgot that he had practiced Qianyuan Gong, so he could only subconsciously lie on the ground, and might as well be kicked in the stomach by Leng Ping. Xue Zao was kicked high and flew high, hearing something in his ears, but he couldn't react and fell on his back. The fall was so heavy that it was as if all the internal organs were about to be shattered, and his head was dizzy for a while, and the Venus in front of him was rising.

Cheng Yitian rushed over at the risk of death, holding Xue Zao to dodge the sword that Leng Ping's second attack came. Cheng Yitian whispered in Xue Zao's ear: "I said, you do it." Luck!" When Leng Ping's sword stabbed like a poisonous dragon out of the sea, he said the names of more than twenty acupuncture points on his body and arms in one breath. Where are these acupuncture points and what is the use, Xue Zao has already practiced thoroughly. But I only felt a stream of heat rising from the dantian, passing through the lower abdomen, chest, and finally parting to the two arms. Cheng Yitian was still saying: "Bow with your left leg and punch with your right." He added: "The right leg is swept and the left fist is on the third road." "When they were in Luohe Village, they used to cooperate like this. The difference is that with the use of Qianyuan Gong today, Xue Zao's two hands have become flexible weapons. The black tiger plucked out his heart and struck with his right elbow...... One move after another, the more you fight, the more you move, the faster you move. Even in the end, Leng Ping's sword appeared in front of him without any danger, and Cheng Yitian did not point out. Xue Zao's ten fingers bent, and a masculine true force became the substance. Leng Ping's sword froze in the air, and then, Xue Zao's hands were staggered, and Leng Ping's wrists involuntarily rotated. Turning to the point of not being able to turn, the force passed along the sword to the hand and then to the arm.

Cheng Yitian shouted: "Punch the door." Xue Zao punched Leng Ping in the chest. A wave of true power poured out, Leng Ping couldn't stand it, and his eyes rolled and fainted.

He actually defeated the number one master of the fire department! Xue Zao screamed and jumped with joy. The good times didn't last long, and another team ran on the street. The first person has black hair and a white forehead embroidered with a golden sun pattern in the middle. If you ignore the golden sun pattern, this person's appearance is like a head. But seeing him carrying a long weapon, with a fierce look in his eyes, he came running.

The person has not arrived, but the murderous spirit has arrived.

Cheng Yitian sensed the crisis and grabbed Xue Zao: "Hurry up." ”

Xue Zao was proud: "Why do you want to go? Leng Ping was defeated by me, and there is no one in the Fire Department that we must be afraid of." ”

"You can't stop this person!" Cheng Yitian couldn't pull him, he was so angry that he roared angrily.

It was too late, but it was too soon, and the head of the long knife had already come to him. With a wave of the long knife, a thunderbolt lit up in the middle of a sunny day. Xue Zao's luck was not in a hurry, and the sword light was already approaching the door.

As soon as Cheng Yitian lifted his true breath, all the seven bone attachment needles on his spine were pulled, and the entire spine was immediately broken. He had no choice but to slam out sideways with his eyes closed. Unexpectedly, the head Tuo who raised the knife was a practitioner, and his steps were delicate and his body was erratic, but when he was collided by external forces, Toutuo's body was suddenly like iron casting. Cheng Yitian bumped into it, but let his blood surge.

Xue Zao was so frightened that he closed his eyes and waited to die. He felt that he was going to be split in half. Compared with the father who committed suicide and the sister who was burned, this kind of death is tragic enough.

However, with a light foot, a force wrapped around him and floated to the side. A familiar aura suddenly appeared beside him, and Xue Zao was surprised and suddenly opened his eyes. His ears jingled, and when he came back to his senses, he looked again, but saw a warrior dressed in black with a peacock pattern embroidered on his shoulder, holding a sword to block Toutuo's long sword. The "clanging" sound is the sound of a sword colliding with a knife.

The knife is getting more and more fierce.

sword, I have to change the tricks faster.

The Eagle King, who was wearing an apricot-colored dress today, first threw Xue Zao aside, and then made a casual move, and Cheng Yitian, who was holding his chest and dizzy, spontaneously fell forward.

The Eagle King flipped his hand, and Cheng Yitian immediately stood firm on his feet. This drop is completely passive. Cheng Yitian knew it, so he felt very embarrassed in his bones. In this way, he immediately turned a cold face. Eagle King Shi Shiran asked with a smile: "Prince Yicheng, this makes the warrior of the long knife very powerful. If you want to use He Cong's sword to break this fierce sword, in your opinion, what should you do?"

Cheng Yitian snorted: "Haitao Longxi is so exquisite, as long as He Guards have learned, even if they only have three or four points of cultivation, this duel can be easily won." Speaking of this, he suddenly smiled: "No, the name is the master and servant, but the master and apprentice." His Royal Highness the dignified Eagle King actually hides his secrets from his henchmen?"

The Eagle King was ashamed: "That's because his Taixu skills can't be practiced, and he can't teach them alone." ”

Cheng Yitian smiled when he heard this.

Xue Zao suddenly spoke: "I know how to break this Toutuo's long knife. He walked up to the other attendants and asked for a sword. But seeing that his face suddenly turned red, the Eagle King was stunned, and Cheng Yitian was also very surprised. Xue Zao raised his sword and strode to the side of the fighting circle. When He Cong and Natou Tuo's moves were intense, Na Tuo made three left and right three times, and forcibly suppressed He Cong's sword momentum, and then the long knife was raised, and a series of "force split Huashan". Because the action is extremely fast, even if a flaw is exposed in the middle, this flaw flashes by, which is equal to nothing. Poor He Cong lost the opportunity, no matter how exquisite the sword moves, he couldn't use them, and he worked hard.

Xue Zao gritted his teeth, his red face was red, and his eyes were wide and blood was almost spurting. He was lucky, took the sword in his right hand, and stabbed forward with all his might. It was that flickering flaw, and Ke Keer was caught by him. Tou Tuo felt the cool breeze hitting his chest, and in a hurry, he sucked his abdomen sharply and retreated. He Cong's sword waves rolled up like a surging wave. However, the Qianyuan True Qi on Xue Zao's sword blocked He Cong, and just when Toutuo's chest was about to be stabbed by a long sword with Qianyuan's True Qi by half a minute, Toutuo's knife and He Cong's sword dealt with Xue Zao together.

The swords collided, and He Cong and Tou Tuo felt a shock in their wrists. It's a pity that the Qianyuan function has been used, and Xue Zao is really weak, so he failed to take advantage of the victory to pursue. But it was enough to surprise those two people. Tou Tuo and He Cong gathered their weapons one after another and stopped together.

Leng Ping woke up, and his subordinates ran over like a head to report. When he saw the Eagle King, he was already afraid. At this moment, another such magical opponent came out, and the real situation was not good. Glancing at his opponent in a panic, Tou Tuo ordered in a deep voice: "Withdraw first!" The people from the fire department helped Leng Ping up, and the group of people hurriedly retreated.

He Cong wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by the Eagle King.

Memory is a magical thing. No matter how time turns, the purest memories that occur in the purest years will always be the deepest imprints engraved in life. For Xue Zao, such an imprint was engraved when he was nine years old, by the Jishan River.

It's not the voice of my sister calling for my brother, it's not the scene of my sister taking my brother to catch fish, it's that he was rescued from the water by his sister Xue Pingping, and when the sister and brother had a quarrel, suddenly, he saw that person.

After so many years, he came out of exile from the Ministry of Fire, left the island, hid in Bauhinia, and spent four years in Qichang Mansion before coming here again. The vicissitudes of the world, flipping and turning, he can be regarded as having eaten enough. From a child who is ignorant of mundane things to a teenager who has now learned the three-layer Qianyuan Gong - Xue Zao, he has changed a lot. If my father and sister were reborn, they would probably not recognize me.

However, in his eyes, the person who appeared and disappeared suddenly has not changed much. Always so heroic, so beautiful. Legend has it that the current king of Tiandu is a child picked up by the first lord of Tiandu. No matter how smart the brain is, I can't imagine: why is this picked up child still so noble?

He moved forward step by step until he was close to the white plum guard.

He Cong stood guard three feet away from the Lord, motionless. Three zhang away, a bamboo pavilion. Inside the bamboo pavilion, the Eagle King was talking to Cheng Yitian, the son of Yicheng.

Where did the hole on King Liang's chariot come from, and the truth will be revealed at this time. The Eagle King paced back and forth several times with his hands behind his back before he stopped and said to Cheng Yitian: "You pick people to train, you want to be right with Lone, who is not good to pick, do you have to pick Xue Zao?"

The second monk Cheng Yitian was puzzled: "What's wrong with picking Xue Zao? He smiled coldly, "I heard that on Penglai Continent, the Black Wing Eagle King and your Black Wind Thirty-six Horsemen are invincible and invincible. Now that I'm here, I have to break this status quo somewhat, what's wrong with that?" The Eagle King's face was suddenly very close. Cheng Yitian already felt the surging Tai Xuan Gong in his body. Qianyuan mixed heaven gong could not flow, and it became a stagnant water completely. If he is hit hard by Taixu Gong, Yicheng Gongzi will disappear from this world on the spot.

Cheng Yitian couldn't help but retreat. After taking a few steps back, his back touched the pillar of the bamboo pavilion, and there was no way to retreat.

The Eagle King gritted his teeth: "You will definitely regret it!" "Huh" turned around, paused for a moment, and spoke again, his voice had calmed down again. "You'd better be more careful," he said, "Xue Zao, who is about sixteen years old this year, or seventeen years old, is scheming and not weaker than you and me. ”

Cheng Yitian sighed: "It is not as good as you to say that it is in line with the truth." ”

The two of them sat down and talked for a long time. After all the words were finished, the two of them came out of the pavilion. The Eagle King rarely arched his hand, and Cheng Yitian also raised his hand and made a gesture of farewell, and the two sides said goodbye together.

Cheng Yitian returned to the city alone. As soon as I entered the city gate, I saw Xue Zao with a straight face, and the wooden stake was like a pestle, blocking the way.

Cheng Yitian went to the left, he went to the left, and Cheng Yitian went to the right, and he went to the right. Cheng Yitian asked him, "What's wrong with you?" Xue Zao suddenly burst out, screaming and punching him indiscriminately. Because he didn't use real power, he smashed it with his fists, but Cheng Yitian was still able to hold it. parried hard, and was beaten to the corner by Xue Zao, Cheng Yitian pushed hard, pushed Xue Zao away, and scolded angrily: "You are crazy!"

Xue Zao turned over and pounced on him, screaming while beating his body: "You only said that you knew him, why is the truth that you are so familiar with him?"

These few sentences are not long, but the meaning is intriguing. Cheng Yitian is a smart person, but smart people are also used to thinking about normal things, just now the Eagle King mentioned one thing, and at this moment Xue Zao has such an attitude. Cheng Yitian thought about it again and again, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he suddenly completely figured it out.

"Xue Zao, Xue Zao!" he grabbed Xue Zao's shoulders and pressed Xue Zao against the wall, "You are enough, you are enough! You like the Eagle King, don't you? There is no Xue Pingping, and there is no Xue Pingping sacrificing herself for love. The person who likes the Eagle King, exposes the Tiandu First City Lord Bai Guhong to give way to his son, and even finds a good place for the Eagle King to act, it's you, it's all you, am I wrong?"

Xue Zao's eyes turned red again: "That's right, you're all right! I like him, from the first sight, I can't control it anymore, and I can't change it." Speaking of this, he couldn't help but break down a little. Beat the wall with all your might, and in a few moments, your hands will rot. Running out of strength, he sat down with his back against the wall.

If it weren't for the gaffe, there were a few secrets that would be kept forever, and no one knew except the parties involved. No wonder Cheng Yitian asked the Eagle King in the bamboo pavilion, and the Eagle King said that he didn't know about the person "Xue Pingping" at all. Cheng Yitian was still very angry at the time, but now he knows that although the Eagle King likes to divide a sentence into seven or eight paragraphs, and communicate with people, he often picks one or two paragraphs. However, in the face of the facts, the Eagle King really doesn't lie about it.

I can't calculate it by a thousand calculations, but Xue Zao is as good as Longyang. And when they first met, he obviously heard Xue Zao tell many stories that slandered the Eagle King......

That night, after a hard time, Cheng Yitian lay on the bunk and began to think endlessly. No wonder the Eagle King has a life of wives and concubines, saying that he can't just cause something like that, Bai Yingchu that guy spent more effort to prove himself. And this is especially in line with that guy's temperament to save face. Thinking about it, he couldn't control it, and he laughed "fluttering". Laughing and laughing, I fell asleep. In his sleep, he blocked several times, not letting Xue Zao's feet cross to him again.

The next day, he talked to Xue Zao alone in the flower market.

"There are some things I want to tell you. ”

Xue Zao roared anxiously, and grabbed his shoulder with both hands together: "Yesterday, you chatted with him, what did you say? ”

Cheng Yitian hesitated: "You must listen?"

"Of course!"

Cheng Yitian sighed: "The Eagle King blames me, why should I teach you martial arts." He knew that you had bad intentions, attacked the three departments, did not purge the three departments, and did not kill you, but he did not expect that you still have this ability, and then walked into his sight. ”

These words made Xue Zao sad, and after being sad, Xue Zao bred some hatred, and in the resentment, he was still a little proud, so he gritted his teeth: "Everyone will look down on it, Han Tiexiong killed my father, executed my sister, and didn't kill me." Because, he also thinks that I am such an old child, I can't do anything at all. But who knows? I just met you and learned martial arts. Even Leng Ping was defeated by me!" This matter can indeed be self-satisfied, the expression on Xue Zao's face became a lot more vivid, and his eyebrows danced: "When I was a storyteller, Liu Mengqi, a hairpin, thought I was too bold. If you don't come, in a few years, he will probably report it layer by layer, and 'he' will also know that I'm not dead, I'm still alive, and I'm talking about 'him' every day. ”

He said it unscrupulously, and he didn't think that this feeling, those practices, would be particularly strange in the eyes of others.

Cheng Yitian sighed softly: "If I were Yingchu, I might kill you!" After being silent for a while, he changed the topic and said to Xue Zao: "It wasn't the point of my chat with the Eagle King just now. And more importantly, I wasn't going to say it to you. And yet—" Speaking of which, he stared sideways into Xue Zao's eyes.

Related to the people who admired and admired him from the bottom of his heart, Xue Zao was hungry: "Tell me quickly, tell me no matter what." ”

Cheng Yitian thought deeply and said seriously: "The matter I am going to talk about now, from your point of view, is good for you. However, much later in the future, it may only be of great benefit to the heavens. What you want, you won't have in this life. But, indirectly, the second time you did the Eagle King, the Eagle King said: He will not refuse to continue to take advantage of you again. ”

Xue Zao listened in a daze, and after listening, happiness appeared on his face, first like shallow ripples, and then, this ripple expanded and deepened, turning into waves on the riverside.

"Since you have cultivated a master for Penglai, I, a master, might as well help the person I like to do things. It doesn't matter if it's one, even if it's a hundred, I have no regrets when I go to the soup and break my bones. The touching oath was said, and Xue Zao then asked, "Then after the discussion, what do you need me to do?"

"Seize the new state and become the lord of the new state city, the new master of the Crescent Alliance. ”

Xue Zao's mouth immediately opened so much that he could stuff his fist into it. Cheng Yitian has been in Penglai for a year and a half, and he doesn't know a lot of things. Back at the Denglong Inn in Mule and Horse Lane, Xue Zao chased after him and said to him next to the stable in the backyard: "You are also crazy, the city lord of Xinzhou, the leader of the Crescent Moon Alliance-this, how can I match this?"

"The Eagle King said, in addition to Leng Yan, there was also that Toutuo who attacked you yesterday. That Toutuo's name is Yu Pengcheng, I don't know who he is, but he said it, and when I talk to you, you will definitely understand. ”

Xue Zao was taken aback, nodded again and again, and then said: "I know, I know! This Yu Pengcheng is the child born to Han Yuhui when the first city lord Bai Guhong and my first beauty in the fire department, Han Yuhui. Three years ago, in the battle of Tiandu, he teamed up with Liu Jingkong, conspired with the evil lady, almost killed the Eagle King, and seized control of Tiandu. However, their operation ultimately failed, Liu Jingkong was killed, and the Evil Lady was imprisoned. This Yu Pengcheng didn't have anything to do at all, he was jumping around and almost killed me!"

Of course, Cheng Yitian couldn't explain his problem. Cheng Yitian put aside this pimple and said according to the original train of thought: "What the Eagle King meant, Yu Pengcheng appeared in Xinzhou, it must not be for fun and relaxation. He brought out the masters of the fire department to do things. ”

"What are you doing? Seize the position of the city lord of Xinzhou?" Xue Zao laughed loudly: "Liang Fan, the city lord of Xinzhou, is only in his forties this year. Even if you eat too well and play crazy with women, it won't be a problem to live for another ten or eight years. But when he said this, his face suddenly became solemn: "No, they want to kill King Liang? So, can the barbarian and Hunan tribes also enter the city together?"

This news can be collected by the people of Tiandu.

Cheng Yitian nodded at Xue Zao.

Cold sweat trickled down Xue Zao's forehead.

The Eagle King said so many things to Cheng Yitian, and there was only one condition for Cheng Yitian: "After the matter is completed, I will let you see the spruce." However, seeing the spruce and the ownership of the spruce, Bai Yingchu did not have any promise. Can he go back to the Xi Dynasty again, Bai Yingchu didn't reply even more than half a word!

According to the arrangement of the Eagle King, they were going to go to the Yueluo Pavilion in the south of the city together this morning. Yueluo Pavilion is the envoy post set up in Xinzhou by Tiandu, and the person in charge is a woman, called Qu Yeniang, who loves to dress up the most on weekdays, and has the style of the evil lady in the past, but she is actually very capable.

Seeing Qu Ye Niang, as long as he said that he came on the order of the Eagle King, he would definitely be able to get the help of all the staff of the entire Yueluo Pavilion.

The original plan was that Cheng Yitian and Xue Zao had to find a way to save King Liang. After saving King Liang, the head of the Yueluo Pavilion came forward and asked Xue Zao to be recruited as a concubine.

However, when Xue Zao heard the term "concubine", he stopped doing it: "Who said I was going to be a concubine? I don't like a princess at all, how can I be a concubine?"

"King Liang only has daughters, no sons, if you want to succeed to the throne as the new King of Liang, you naturally have to marry a princess, and you can become the master of Xinzhou in order to ascend the throne. ”

Xue Zao said: "That princess of King Liang is fierce and domineering, I don't like it whether it is a man or a woman. After a pause, he suddenly smiled coldly: "Brother Cheng, if you want to become the lord of Xinzhou, only the old city lord is gone, wouldn't it be good for me to fight for it with my strength? We don't need to go to see it in person, it won't be long before the Xiongkun of the barbarian department and the heroine of the Hunan department should jointly visit Liang Fan, the lord of Xinzhou City, and wait a while. ”

"Xue Zao. When Cheng Yitian heard this, he couldn't stop being angry, "In my negotiation with the Eagle King, there is no such presupposition. ”

"That's because you're too indecisive. ”

"I think it's better to go with the plan. ”

"Did the Eagle King tell you that?"

Cheng Yitian was stunned.

The corners of Xue Zao's mouth were crooked, revealing a smile, with a deep meaning: "Do as I say, in the end, the Eagle King will definitely not blame, but will praise—ah!" With an exclamation, Xue Zao and Cheng Yitian rose from the ground at the same time. A large net as long as two or three zhang carried the two people in it, tightened their mouths, and finally hung on a big tree where the two of them embraced.

The two people who were held in the net were next to each other like dumpling fillings.

Through the mesh, Xue Zao saw at a glance the princess Ji Lin who led the Liang Palace to arrest him.

Princess Ji Lin turned over two heels and came below, her expression was lively and vivid, and she laughed loudly: "Run, I'll see you run again." Even if you run to the ends of the earth, you can't take out my palm, and if you catch you, you will definitely catch you!"

Xue Zao's mind turned very quickly, and he just said that he didn't want to go to the Liang Palace, but he didn't want to be cleaned up by Ji Lin first, so he changed his words: "Princess Ji Lin, we have something to go to the palace." The three barbarian Hunan fire tribes entered the city together, and today, the leader of the barbarian tribe and the leader of the Hunan tribe will definitely go to visit King Liang. ”

Ji Lin was really stunned, but soon, her eyes rolled around, and Ji Lin laughed: "Xue Zao, how many eyes do you have, this princess has seen enough these days." First he took us through the streets and alleys, dizzying me, and then ran to the suburbs. The boots you put on the cliff are still wearing on the feet of my subordinates. ”

Xue Zao laughed "hehe": "Her Royal Highness the princess is so stingy, will you have a pair of broken shoes soon?"

"Smack!" across the net, Ji Lin slapped him: "Those pairs were originally my subordinate shoes, okay? Only you, such a narrow ghost, secretly put down my person, picked up his shoes, replaced your own scorpion, put them on the edge of the cliff, coaxed me, and made me think that you jumped off the cliff and died." Xue Zao, Xue Zao, you are reluctant to even take out your own shoes when you are playing. There are so many despicable villains in the world, can you find one who is better than you?"

Xue Zao didn't mean to be ashamed, and through the mesh, he said calmly word by word: "Princess Ji Lin, instead of crusading against my shoes with me, it is better to send someone to the palace quickly." If you ride a fast horse, you will be in a hurry. When you believe me, take us with us, and bring the reinforcements we can help you find, and your father may survive. ”

Ji Lin didn't believe it at all, but slapped him harder.

Xue Zao's face was swollen, the corners of his mouth were broken, and blood flowed.
