Chapter Thirty-Six: The Dark Tide Under the Scenery
The triennial Sword Conference has officially kicked off today in Biye City. In the two days leading up to Lin Ge's 70th birthday, the Lin family will conduct a preliminary screening of all participants, and the winner will have the official qualification to participate in the Sword Debate.
At this time, basically all the heroes and heroes who planned to participate in the conference rushed over from Tiannan and Haibei, and tens of thousands of horses gathered in Biye City, intending to crowd this small city. At this time, the streets of Biye City were already crowded, and pedestrians were rubbing shoulders one after another, making it difficult to walk an inch. Even if the Lin family set up four rings in Biye City, it was still difficult to change the situation, so they had to add four more rings outside the city to make the crowded streets better.
When Lin Muyao and his party entered the city from the north gate, they saw such a lively scene. However, the eldest lady of the Lin family raised her jade toes to observe the game, and naturally someone helped to open the way, squeezing out a way from the sea of people, until she came to the ring of the competition.
In the noisy and noisy cheers, the person standing upright like a pine on the stage was naturally Hao Chengang.
Haochengang was wearing a yellow cloth coat and stepping on mango shoes, and his dress was no different from that of ordinary martial arts people. But his face is angular, his facial features are as deep as a knife, his eyes are as deep as the sea, and he has a short beard under his chin. He stood calmly with his hands in his hands, like a pine rock, with his own grandmaster demeanor, which made people feel awe.
The first master of the younger generation, so majestic and courageous!
As soon as Mu Cheng Xuefu saw Hao Chengang's figure, he seemed to have been hooked away, and stood motionless, unable to take his eyes off it.
Lin Muyao just asked a few words about a knight with a knife, and when she turned around and saw Mu Chengxue's appearance, she couldn't help but be secretly angry, and raised her hand to block Mu Chengxue's eyes.
Mu Chengxue pushed Lin Muyao's arm away and complained, "Don't make trouble!"
Lin Muyao said with a straight face: "Okay, you guy who is heavy on color and light on friends, when you see Haochengang, you feel like you have lost your soul." I'll tell your brother when I go back, and let him go to Haochen Gangti!"
"Don't-" Mu Chengxue hurriedly covered her mouth, her pink cheeks flushed with shame, "Don't talk nonsense, who forgets his friends when he sees sex, I just admire his martial arts and character, don't always think crookedly." ”
Lin Muyao held her hand, stared at the depths of her eyes, and said in a long tone: "Oh, do you really just admire his martial arts and character?"
Mu Chengxue's face was as red as fire, and said, "Of course it's true." I haven't even spoken to him, do I have other thoughts? Don't make a fuss, let's take a good look at other people's martial arts!"
"Don't worry, he has just come to power, and some are watching. ”
According to the rules, Hao Chengang needs to stay in the ring for a quarter of an hour and defeat all the challengers who come to the stage to win the qualification.
The two eldest ladies were joking and laughing in front, while Bai Lang, He Zhongyi and others were cautiously guarding the martial arts people around them. In such a crowded environment, there is no room for negligence in the safety of the young lady.
And Qin Yan doesn't have to spend extra thoughts, he can enjoy the demeanor of the legendary number one master. According to his feelings, Hao Chengang was superior in momentum than the Wanliufeng he encountered that day, but Wanliufeng had the evil technique of "Demon Soul Possession", which was the same as his own sacrificial technique, which could greatly increase the strength of his strength. And Hao Chengang must also have his own unique martial arts, the two really fight, and the outcome is unpredictable.
Hao Chengang stood on the stage for a stick of incense, and no one dared to go on stage. After all, his reputation is too intimidating, even if he has some ability under his hands, he doesn't want to go up and bring humiliation on himself. The people below whispered, looking left and right, hoping that Haochengang's first scene would not pass in silence. Many people trek through mountains and rivers and come thousands of miles to see the heroic posture of the peerless master!
When the second incense was burned, someone finally couldn't bear the silence and jumped on the high platform with his feet up, which immediately won a round of applause.
It was a young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, he pulled out the sword behind him, pulled a sword flower, and saluted Hao Chengang: "In Xia Wang Fan, I have heard the name of Brother Hao for a long time, and I hope that Brother Hao will not hesitate to advise." ”
Haochengang bowed his hand and returned the salute: "Brother Wang is polite, you and I will learn martial arts, and we will stop at the point." ”
Wang Fan nodded, held his sword in front of him, and approached Haochengang vigilantly and slowly. Just when he entered the distance five steps in front of Haochengang, Haochengang moved! I saw a figure flashing, Haochengang had already appeared in front of Wang Fan, and his probe slapped Wang Fan's shoulder like lightning. He came too fast, Wang Fan didn't have time to react at all, and when he swung his sword halfway, he found that his right shoulder had been slapped solidly, and he was beaten into the air and fell straight to the outside of the stage.
The process of this photo was extremely fast, and before the martial arts people with almost eyesight could see what was going on, they saw that the figures of the two people on the stage were about to separate, Wang Fan had been beaten upside down and flew out, and he had been thrown out of the ring, and he was about to fall down, and the people in that direction hurriedly dodged to both sides. However, he saw that Wang Fan's fall turned from sharp to slow down at this time, from a heavy boulder to as light as a feather, fluttering down, staggering back a few steps, and barely standing firm.
"Good!"
"Hao Gongzi is a good skill!"
"This hand is as soft as if it has reached its peak!"
"Not only has it reached the peak, but it has returned to the basics!" ......
The onlookers applauded exaggeratedly, and all kinds of words of praise rang out endlessly.
Hao Chengang's hand is indeed beautiful, Qin Yan can't do it like this. If it were him, Wang Fan would have died when he received that slap, and people would have found that it was only a corpse that fell down......
Lin Muyao in front probably didn't see Hao Chengang's movements clearly, and patted Mu Chengxue's fragrant shoulder and asked, "What happened just now, why was that person sent away before he could make a move?"
Mu Chengxue's eyes did not leave Hao Chengang at all, and he said: "His speed is too fast, and I can't see it clearly." She didn't notice that her face had turned red with excitement, like a pink apple, and it was extremely cute.
Lin Muyao glanced at her like this, and couldn't help but straighten her face: "I didn't see what you were excited about, like a country girl who has never seen the world, it's really embarrassing!"
At this time, someone went up to the stage and greeted Hao Chengang. Mu Chengxue only cared about raising her pretty face to stare at Hao Chengang's posture, and didn't listen to Lin Muyao's words at all. Lin Muyao sighed, knowing that she couldn't listen to what she said at this time, so she had to continue to admire Haochengang's demeanor.
Hao Chengang casually pushed his palm, and knocked the challenger out lightly, and the softness made the challenger slow down when he landed, and he was not injured.
After seeing Haochengang's miraculous martial arts, more and more people came to the stage to find Haochengang's troubles. It's not that they feel that they can have a chance to compete with Haochengang, on the contrary, most of these people are not yet in the stream, they feel that they are not good at learning, and they can't get the official qualification for the Sword Conference anyway, it is better to take this opportunity to show their faces, and they can brag about it in the future.
"I think that when Biye City was on the sword conference, the first thing Xiao Lao'er met was Hao Chengang, I saw him with big ears, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and a straight nose and mouth...... He is worthy of being a character who 'looks down on the world without a hole in the world, and is honest and proud of the world'! Xiao Lao'er knew that he had succeeded in cultivating the 'Dong Xuan Sutra', and he was afraid that he would not be his opponent when he confronted him head-on, so Xiao Lao'er had a plan, and instead of directly facing him, he circled around him. That Haochengang didn't know what the little old man wanted, and he didn't dare to act rashly for a while, so he had to watch me get closer and closer to him, getting closer and closer......"
"Hu'er, don't underestimate your father, although your father seems to be just an ordinary shopkeeper, he is also a character who has fought with Haochengang. Back then, that day was late autumn, the north wind was bleak, and the leaves in Biye City were flying one after another, and the murderous spirit was surging. Your father and I have a big battle with Haochengang, it can really be described as a chess opponent, and you will meet a good talent, and you will kill until the sky is dark, the sun and the moon are dark, but it is a pity that Haochengang's cultivation is really profound, and his father finally lost a move, and he was knocked out of the ring. Since then, Fang knows that there are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people, so he no longer fights with others, and concentrates on operating Fulai Teahouse...... What, don't you believe it? I even asked someone to draw a portrait of 'two heroes facing each other'! You said that Wang Xiaoer next door also has a copy in his house? Don't listen to his bragging, he repainted according to my ......."
For a while, I saw that the crowd was agitated, and even the ordinary people and croppers rushed to the stage, and then they couldn't even care about the rules, and a large group of people ran up from all sides of the ring and surrounded Haochen Gang. And Haochen Gang's face was always calm and calm, his figure flickered and shuttled through the crowd, sending all the people to the stage with one palm, and no one was injured. In such a chaotic scene, the disciples of the Lin family who maintained discipline were simply too busy. These are the local people of Biye City, who originally watched the excitement, and they didn't expect to participate in any sword competition, so they naturally didn't pay attention to the rule of "violators will be disqualified from the competition". Some people took advantage of the chaos to come to power again and again, at least Qin Yan saw the shopkeeper of the Feixia Inn where he lived and went up three times......
Seeing this scene, Mu Chengxue couldn't help but run up to "learn" with Hao Chengang, but she was dragged by Lin Muyao desperately, so she couldn't fulfill her wish.
Qin Yan was originally paying attention to Hao Chengang's every move, but suddenly his heart palpitated, and his back suddenly shivered, and he couldn't help but shiver.
There is danger!
He immediately used the Divine Search Spell, coupled with the powerful divine sense after the trial of the two realm tablets, he immediately noticed that several cold aura filled with killing intent was forcing from the left, right, and back directions.
He quickly sorted out the enemy's position, there were a total of five people, judging from the qi induction, all of them were masters above the high level of the human element, and one of them had reached the realm of the middle level of the earth element, and he was also a first-class figure of the grandmaster when he looked at the rivers and lakes. If such a character is engaged in ambush and assassination, who can resist it?
And now such a chaotic scene is a good opportunity to do it!
Judging from the route they came to, Qin Yan judged that their target was the two eldest ladies in front. He Zhongyi and Bai Lang had already attracted part of their minds to Hao Chengang's body, and they couldn't notice that these uninvited guests had approached Miss Lin within seven steps. Since they hadn't noticed it, and Qin Yan didn't intend to set himself on fire, he took a step back diagonally without moving, so as not to block the path of the assassins.
As a disciple of the Demon Sect, Qin Yan was not completely devoid of a sense of justice and compassion, but he was pitiful. His philosophy of judging things has always been based only on intimacy and likes and dislikes. Regarding the stabbing of Miss Lin, he applauded from the bottom of his heart. As for Mu Chengxue, this young lady is indeed innocent, but Young Master Ben is not very familiar with her......
