Depressed Fairy

"Master Chen, after crossing the bridge in front, we will reach the boundary of Zhongyue County."

"good."

Chen Yuan was also riding a horse, and beside him were Sun Zhengyao, Taoist Zhaixing, Xu Zhengyuan and his disciple Sun Muchen.

Seven days have passed since he left Lushou Mountain with a group of people.

He was able to use clouds and mist to lead people across, relying on the power of Shinto. However, although Shinto had all kinds of incredible power, it had huge limitations, so he finally landed on the eastern border of Qinchuan County and turned to horseback riding.

As he was talking, there was suddenly dust flying in front of him.

A few breaths later, a group of seven people arrived on horseback. Seeing Chen Yuan and his party, they slowed down their angle.

The leading young man reined in his fast horse and saluted the Taoist Master.

"I've met senior."

"You came just in time." Taoist Zhaixing said, leading the visitor to Chen Yuan, "Chen Jun, you asked about the situation in Zhongyue City before. I only know a general idea because I usually travel and practice. Come today. The man who greets us is a military commander named Fan Chang. If you have anything you want to ask, just ask him."

Fan Chang's face was full of surprise when he heard Taoist Taoist Zhaixing's words and tone, and then he looked at Chen Yuan.

So young!

"Is this Chen Shiji, the prince of the Marquis of Jingyang, who was elected as the number one master in the northwest?"

He quickly saluted.

"Taoist master is interested." Chen Yuan felt that the name of the conductor was familiar, but he did not go into details.

Instead, Taoist Master Zhaixing's expression changed and he said, "What is the best master in the northwest? This is the best master in the world! The Taoist priest's letter made it very clear!"

Fan Chang looked embarrassed and said nothing.

Prince Ping laughed loudly and came closer.

"Old Taoist Reacher, don't make things difficult for me," he pointed at the old Taoist priest and asked, "Have you forgotten what you looked like when you first came to visit?"

The old Taoist who picked up stars quickly said: "Isn't that a poor Taoist..."

"You said it yourself, even if Master Chen is from a noble family, but he rises in the northwest, he will be regarded as a northwest inheritance. I know those people in the Middle Earth, who is the first in Jiangzuo, No. 1 in Central-Earth and No. 1 in Liangjiang, don’t have too many names, but it is not just reputation, it also involves countless interests. If they admit that they are not as good as Northwest Martial Arts, they will not be able to do many things and make a lot of money. ”

Sun Zhengyao sneered and said: "There are many people who are trying their best to hide the news and deceive themselves and others."

Fan Chang was sweating profusely, and neither responded nor remained silent.

"Don't worry about this matter," Chen Yuan shook his head, "Being number one in the world doesn't necessarily bring many benefits, but trouble is definitely inevitable. If you can't help but mention it, it's not a bad thing."

As soon as he opened his mouth, several great masters shut up.

Fan Chang looked on from the side and was secretly speechless!

"Looking at the looks of these people, are all the news true?"

He suddenly realized that the city might have underestimated the influence of this number one person in the northwest!

"I thought he was powerful, but after all, his rise was short, and he was not taken seriously in the Jingyang Marquis Mansion before. He is temporarily out of control. He is an easy target to absorb and win over. But why are these great masters so right? Does he mean to obey orders? Fortunately, he seems quite stable..."

Chen Yuan turned around and asked: "There are a lot of people gathered in Zhongyue City, right? What are the forces? You can tell me roughly, in this place, who will not open their eyes, find me, and find the person responsible accurately?" , so as not to involve others.”

Fan Chang's heart skipped a beat and he felt something bad. After hesitating for a moment, he said: "Your Majesty, how can there be any trouble if you go to the city? At most, people who are good at martial arts will come to compete. With such a great reputation, this kind of thing is inevitable."

Chen Yuan nodded and said: "When Taoist Master Zhaixing came to visit, I expected that something like this would happen, but I have a lot of things on my hands, and I don't want to be distracted by this kind of thing. In addition, in the name of discussing, People are not as aggressive as they are against Shenting, so it is best to catch a few typical ones from the beginning, which will also be good for others. "

"This..." Fan Chang became increasingly uneasy.

"You don't need to worry about these things." Taoist Master Zhaixing said at the right time, "Just answer the questions."

After hesitating for a moment, Fan Chang nodded and said, "Junior understands."

Next, he finally introduced the situation of Zhongyue City honestly.

This city is located on the front line between the two countries. It is a mixed bag of people. It was also chosen by Chenghua and others as a calling place, attracting attention from all parties. The situation in the city can be described as complicated, but it can be divided into four camps.

The first one is the Daning court, whose representative is none other than Prince Hong. He holds military and political power and has strong soldiers and horses under his command. In terms of strength, he is second to none in the entire Zhongyue County.

The second one was in response to Yanguo's offensive, guest troops came from various places, with different affiliations, and there were conflicts between them.

The third one is the disciples of various major sects who gather in one city for various reasons, but like the guest army, they work independently and do not belong to each other. Many sects still have grudges between them.

The last one, in Chen Yuan's opinion, can barely be regarded as an alliance of monks. Its core goal is to compile a humane canon. Therefore, although it has different origins, it has a unified consensus and can be regarded as a whole.

"This Zhongyue City can be regarded as a meeting place." After commenting, Chen Yuan asked again: "The trip hadn't happened before, so I didn't ask in detail. Now that I'm almost there, I always have to ask a few questions. I wonder who Cheng Hua is? Fellow Taoist, when do you plan to officially compile it? How many secrets have you collected?"

"There are many ways." Taoist Master Zhaixing stroked his beard and said: "If we realize the importance of this matter, we will take the initiative to come up with the inheritance, and some of it is in exchange for benefits. In addition to this, there are actually many There are few options.”

Fan Chang became more energetic at this time and said: "Before I came here, there was a inheritance gambling battle. It was General Su Xi who challenged the Du Yuhou of the Yongqiu Army. He finally won and allowed the Yongqiu Army to come up with an army. "Kung Fu."

"Betting?" Chen Yuan was surprised at first, and then thought it was reasonable, "But what are these bets about? Are they all martial arts?"

"Of course not!" Fan Chang said, with a look of admiration on his face: "The most popular weapons in gambling and fighting are magic weapons and magic weapons. These are countless weapons in the world. The leader of the Fire Refining Sect supported Brother Cheng the most, and even He opened up the secrets of the sect and took out many weapons. In addition, Brother Cheng himself is a scholar of heaven and man, and has knowledge of five sects and six sects. He has dabbled in hundreds of schools. His bets with each school involve all aspects, such as the person who came forward this time. Yongqiu Jun, just for the sake of a military strategist's method, he suppressed a cultivation method! "

As he spoke, his words turned to the Yongqiu Army: "The Yongqiu Army formed an army very early. Although it is senior, its organization is backward and there is much disorganization from top to bottom. The communication between soldiers and generals is not smooth, and the formation is crude. There are also many hidden dangers in the military training method. Brother Cheng specially wrote a military training strategy for this purpose. In this bet, although Du Yuhou did not win and did not get the military strategy, Brother Cheng directly gave the military training strategy to the other party, so that the Marquis Du Yu is very hasty and heartbroken, and maybe he will sincerely join in the compilation of the ceremony soon!"

When Chen Yuan heard this, he couldn't help but said: "It seems that fellow Taoist Chenghua's knowledge is profound, and his conduct is even more wonderful."

King Ping suddenly spoke up and said: "Yongqiu is a county town and belongs to Jingyang Mansion. Dingji, the Marquis of Yu, the capital of Yongqiu Army, is a disciple of Marquis Jingyang."

Fan Chang was stunned at first, and then shocked.

"It doesn't matter," Chen Yuan waved his hand. He had no sense of involvement in Jingyanghou's family, and just asked: "Did Marquis Yu, the leader of the Yongqiu Army, instigate this gambling fight?"

"No." Fan Chang shook his head.

Chen Yuan then asked: "You are here to greet me. There are many people who know about it, right?"

Fan Chang nodded and said: "The Taoist Master's letter is not a secret. There are many people in the city who know about it."

At this time, Sun Zhengyao understood: "There are indeed few coincidences in the world. When you come to greet Master Chen, someone will challenge the people related to Master Chen, saying that no one is behind this, I don't believe it!"

King Ping asked: "Is Su Xi who challenged Ding Ji the descendant of Yong'an Marquis?"

"Yes, General Su is the second son of Marquis Yong'an," Fan Chang hesitated before saying, "There are rumors that General Su once taught Mr. Chen swordsmanship."

"Oh?" Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes, "This is interesting."

Zhongyue City, Su Mansion.

"Brother Su! I heard that your apprentice is coming. He is so powerful now! Even though you have won consecutive battles in recent days, I'm afraid you are no match for him."

Leng Bin, who was wearing a gray cloak, spoke loudly as soon as he walked into the house, but after going around for a while, he saw Su Xi cleaning a knife on the edge of the rockery in the backyard.

Listening to the voice, Su Xi raised her head and said lightly: "Where is he?"

"I don't know, but if you want to come to Zhongyue, you must go to Wei County and have a walk on Fengming Terrace. You will know then." Leng Bin changed the topic after saying, "By the way, what is this person like?" ? There are too many rumors about everything, except to describe him as a true immortal in the world. You are his master, you must know some details, right? "

Su Xi shook her head and said, "Although I taught him, I didn't let him become my disciple because of his poor martial arts qualifications."

"What!? Then you are mistaken. He is now the number one master in the northwest." As Leng Bin spoke, he looked at the black-backed long sword, his mind was shaken, his mind trembled, and he said in surprise: "This is that A magic weapon, right? It’s such a good knife!”

"Of course it's a good sword! There is a magical power hidden in the sword. With Chenghua's help, I have understood 90% of it. I am just one chance away from being able to fully understand it." Su Xi looked at the knife with a look of intoxication, and her eyes flickered. A little bit of black light.

Suddenly, a look of struggle appeared on his face, and the black light in his eyes disappeared.

but……

Buzz!

The long knife trembled.

Su Xi's expression returned to indifference, and she whispered: "I see, are you reminding me? If you don't challenge me, you will regret it for the rest of your life! In that case, let me try this beauty who is the best in the world."

Leng Bin's expression changed and he immediately said: "Brother Su, what are you talking about? How can you personally be involved in such a thing? According to rumors, the entire Huangliang Road is no match for him, and you challenge him alone? Are you confused? It’s over!”

Su Xi said indifferently: "In the past few days, I have picked up several masters from Jingyanghou's family. Do you think he will be indifferent after he comes? Instead of waiting passively, it is better to take the initiative. This is my martial arts! What's more, I'm waiting for you Now that you have mastered Brother Cheng’s method of integrating people and cities, how can you not give it a try?”
