Smile and swing sword

Behind He Shouqing were the four senior brothers and sisters, and two other elders whom he had never seen before, standing together in the shade on the side of the paddock exit.

"Master, this is Brother Xiang whom I said I met in Chima, you go back to the restaurant first, let me have a few old conversations with him."

The woman whom he called his teacher had a high nose and thin lips, and majestic phoenix eyes, but as soon as her eyes fell on He Shouqing, she was very affectionate, as if she sighed helplessly: "Why do you go back to the restaurant first? You are so unreserved, as a teacher, go to the pavilion in front with the others and wait for you to come up."

Wu Yun made a gesture to hold Chi Shen's other hand, winked and smiled: "Come here, brother, I will also lead you to find some pavilion, pavilion, etc. If it doesn't work, just stand under the tree, so as not to make you delicate and weak." Got heat."

Chi Shen opened Wu Yun's outstretched palm with the back of his hand, and held Xiang Tianyou tightly: "You are an outsider here, so you should go farther away. I have nothing to avoid. If you want to talk about the past, I also met Sister He with my brother." Is it?"

He Shouqing's smile froze slightly, and he managed to maintain it: "What I said to the younger brother is that it doesn't matter if the elder brother is here. I just want to ask, didn't the elder brother say that he didn't know what breaking the mystery is, why is it today?"

"It's a long story, and I can't explain it clearly for a while. I hope the girl will forgive me for concealing it that day. In short, it is what you see now."

"So, it's also good...It turns out that my skill is low, I don't know Taishan with my eyes, I didn't see that Brother Xiang has the power of high-level profound arts, and I still treat you as an ordinary person, thinking that the red horse is a farewell , it is difficult to meet each other."

Thinking of He Shouqing's injury when he left that day, Xiang Tianyou couldn't help but soften his heart, and said in a calm tone: "Miss He is pure and kind-hearted, which is admirable, but I have concealed a lot. As a friend, I am too frank. Please excuse me."

"No, no, please be polite to elder brother." He Shouqing blushed slightly, and waved his hands again and again, "You have your own concerns, and it's up to you whether you say it or not. Master and I live in Yunqi Building for a while, so I don't know where elder brother will end up ?”

Xiang Tianyou pondered for a while, and told the truth: "My family's honor is Su Yihou Xiang Dingtian."

He Shouqing exclaimed with joy, "It's... I know, but unfortunately I'm still one step away from the sixth level, and I don't even have the qualifications to compete for the breaking order, otherwise I might be able to follow the senior brother Let’s go to Cangshan Baochi together with Big Brother Xiang to learn a lot.”

"Even if you can barely break through the sixth level, it will be difficult to win among the contenders with a large number of talents." Chi Shen thought so in his heart, but he didn't say it, but then he thought that he was just a poor qualification to obtain spiritual roots by washing the marrow with the Good Fortune Pill , Why come to the position to slander others, can't help feeling depressed.

Xiang Tianyou said goodbye to He Shouqing when he couldn't bear to wait, and went back to the house early to rest.The next day was also divided into two rounds. Although there were fewer people, the time for one round was much longer. It can be seen that the difference in skill between the contestants has been greatly reduced.

On the third day, there were only 160 people who could stand in the paddock. Two sets of 63 bamboo sticks were prepared, and those who got the same serial number played against each other. Zong Zhili suppressed Xuan Gong to the level of tenth level, and naturally won easily against this group of contenders who are even rare in ninth level.

This time, his opponent was quite good, and Xuan Gong was also good at winning by surprise. He didn't want to be defeated suddenly without going through Xiang Tianyou's ten rounds. His whole face was covered with bewilderment. .

Xiang Tianyou maintained the first place for five consecutive rounds, and the Dragon Emperor praised him without hesitation, and even said to his sons and daughters: "If he can also get the first place among the last 63 people, you should make friends. Xi'er, my sons and daughters Among them, your profound art realm is the highest, and after the next year you will successfully step into the tenth level of congenital level, what do you think about Xiang Tianyou's strength, and what are the chances of winning if you match?"

Dongmen Xi's brows were tightly furrowed, his starry eyes showed a cold light, and there was no trace of a smile on his face: "He is still able to fight with ease so far, and he hasn't used a single ruthless move. My son thinks he is not as good."

"Haha, I thought that among the young talents in the world, no one can make you surrender without a fight!"

"Returning to the emperor, it is because I don't want to fight that I am willing to surrender. If I fight, I will not admit defeat."

"Okay! Let's take a look at tomorrow's ranking competition. If you want to recruit the top three, you can also share the treasure pool map with them."

The discussion in the big tent was lively, and there were groups of three or four in the venue, Xiang Tianyou and Wu Yun were walking together, today there was even Yao Xinruo.

"Tomorrow's decisive battle, I don't know who among the three of us will win the championship."

Wu Yun laughed loudly, patted Yao Xinruo on the shoulder and said, "My sister has such a big tone, it's not that big brother looks down on you, you are indeed strong among women, and you are much stronger than most men, but you want to compete with big brother, me and brother Xiang. Well, it’s not enough to watch.”

"You can only know if you have seen and compared it enough. It is too early to speak out now." Yao Xinruo has a carefree personality, and he hated meeting Wu Yun late, so he didn't care about it.

"I'm afraid it will disappoint the two of you. My father and I have discussed the ranking competition first, and there is a reason why we must take the first place."

Yao Xinruo didn't talk about talking nonsense to Tianyou at this moment, instead he was curious and asked generously: "What reason? I really want to know."

"It's Bao'er. I want to take him to the world of Jiyuan and exchange three Poxuanlings for one Good Fortune Pill."

"It turns out that Axi was talking about you!" Seeing Wu Yun's puzzled look, Yao Xinruo explained, "Axi is Her Royal Highness Ninth Princess. I used to accompany her in the palace when I was young. I have worshiped the same martial artist, and I love the same sisters."

As he spoke, he clenched his fist and slammed it on Wu Yun's arm, raised his thick eyebrows, and there was a bit of sarcasm in his smile, "I'm two years older than Princess Nine, but my Xuangong is far from her tenth level, if it weren't for Ah Xi I have already taken one of the imperial court's 16 yuan decree to break the mystery, and I will definitely make her slap your ignorant mouth!"

Wu Yun chuckled, thinking that he himself was born tenfold, and when facing Dongmen Xi, he might not be able to tell who would win. He didn't care in his heart, but he wanted to poke someone: "That's natural, His Royal Highness Ninth Princess is so honorable, a famous teacher Guiding the way, pills can be used as sugar pills, magical weapons and sharp weapons can be chosen by you, they are not much more powerful than me, a boy who chops firewood and herds cattle!"

"No, no, don't disturb my thoughts. I want to ask Brother Xiang. Did you take the Creation Pill you wanted for that little brother who is waiting for you every day?"

While speaking, he was not far from the pool, nodded to Tianyou, quickly threw the two of them off, and said while walking: "I told you to wait in the shade under the dome, why is your head sweating from the sun? "

"My brother thinks people are too delicate, so it's okay to show off for a while. Congratulations to brother, brother Wu and sister Yao for successfully obtaining the quota."

Several people looked at each other and smiled, Wu Yun's heart was ready to move, and he invited someone to drink, Yao Xinruo readily agreed, Xiang Tianyou was just waiting to refuse, then he heard him joke: "Forget it, forget it, you just forget it, hurry back Let the baby go."

Although Chi Shen was annoyed by a pun on two people, he didn't care about it. The four of them came in twos and went in different directions.

"Brother, I haven't seen Grandpa Daozong these days, but is he busy?"

Xiang Tianyou replied: "I wanted to wait for him to succeed before telling you, since you asked... Three years ago, Daozong went to the Northwest Desert and found an unformed quicksand stone flower. Walking in the sand, its whereabouts are the most erratic, and it only blooms for one day on an extremely hot day every year. After you cut the marrow in the Book of Changes, your toughness is not enough, and it is best to take this flower to strengthen your body, so I asked him to pick it."

"Trouble him again." Chi Shen felt a little sorry.

"It's not troublesome, it's just that he won't come back for a short time, and I'm busy with fighting these days, so I can only take you by my side all the time, I dare not let you stay alone in Xiangfu, you are probably bored."

"How could it be? It's my brother who has a little follower with him all day long, so that others can see it fresh."

"Since you and I don't care, what are you talking about, wait for two more days, when the dust of the competition is settled, I will take you away."

Eighty places have been released, but according to the rules, 16 people from the royal family are the first to enter when the Cangshan Treasure Pool is opened. The competitors still dare not be sloppy at all, let alone No.20 can get three Mystery Breaking Tokens, the second person two, and the third person a special gift from the imperial court.

The battle method is still the same, eighty to forty, forty to twenty, twenty to ten, three rounds, until the moon rabbit is lifted into the sky, it is just over, most of the people are exhausted.

On the fifth day, there will be a truce for one day, so that those who compete for the final position can cultivate.Xiang Tianyou and Chi Shen didn't go anywhere, they ate melons in the Qiutao courtyard to escape the heat.

Chi Shen looked at the ice in the basin and sighed secretly that it was a good thing, and asked, "Brother, why is there ice in the house?"

"Of course not in the mansion. This ice is allocated by the imperial court. The share of the Marquis Mansion is limited. Usually only the wife of Chunwuyuan has the backyard. This year it is a special case to award it to Qiutaoyuan."

"Isn't the young master and the young lady not there?"

"Those who practice Xuangong, practice three-day summer and winter three-nine, are more resistant to cold and heat than ordinary people."

Chi Shen's face became hot, so Xiang Tianyou asked for this thing specially for him again.

"Tomorrow's last ten people will compete for the ranking. Mostly they will use their housekeeping skills. The movement will not be small. Therefore, it will be changed to the martial arts field in the eastern suburbs. Any unrelated people are strictly prohibited from entering to watch the battle, and you are also not allowed to enter."

"So, shall I wait in the courtyard for your return, or?"

Xiang Tianyou was undecided, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Let's follow, I'm afraid that after winning the first place, the Dragon Emperor will announce my audience, maybe there is something else that will get in the way and let you alone for a long time." In the mansion, I can't rest assured, waiting outside the martial arts arena, but I can entrust some reliable Jianghu people to protect you."

"Then it's settled. Tomorrow, I will wait for my brother to come out victorious!"

The two chatted leisurely, but Xiang Tianjue felt uncomfortable under the heat of the sun, paced back and forth in the pavilion, and finally waited for three men in sackcloth.

These three people said that ordinary is nothing more than ordinary, ordinary-looking, medium-sized, neither beautiful nor ugly at first sight.

"Are you the Qishan Three Corpses?"

The three of them answered in unison: "That's right." Their voices were icy and unwavering, and Xiang Tianjue shivered under the scorching sun.

"Brother Xu has already explained the specific matters to you. The old avatar who has been following Xiang Xiaobao has something to do, but Xiang Tianyou will definitely hire another person to guard Xiang Xiaobao. Are you sure you can succeed?"

The leader of the linen man replied: "As long as the opponent is not in the state of innate Dzogchen, the Gu insect will definitely take effect."

"Okay, then I will rest assured. As long as you can help me deliver Xiang Xiaobao to the designated place tomorrow, I will ask Brother Xu to transfer the remaining remuneration on my behalf on time. After the money and goods are cleared, we The rivers and lakes will never meet again."
