Climbing up hundreds of steps, after climbing over a small hill, there is a flat valley, and what comes into view is a large pine forest. The pine trees are obviously some years old, and each one is a towering giant tree. Dozens of blue brick and green tiled buildings Ancient and simple buildings are scattered among the pine forests, and the mountain breeze blows through the pine forests, bringing a refreshing coolness.
He Qizhou looked up and saw the Hanjian Peak on the back of the villa rising straight into the sky. Its imposing momentum was far more shocking than that at the mountain gate.
"This trip is worthwhile, this trip is worthwhile..." Ling Su behind He Qizhou opened his mouth and stared, looking up at the mountain, fascinated by this holy land of martial arts in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
"Four of you, please follow me." A twelve or thirteen-year-old swordsman came out of the forest and greeted the four of them. While giving directions, he said: "The four of you may not be able to compete today. Should you go to the guest room to rest first?" Go to the ring to watch the competition?"
"Go to the ring!" Luo Yu and Ling Su shouted almost at the same time, and then they both looked at He Qizhou at the same time.
"Go to the ring." He Qizhou repeated.
"Please." The sword boy seemed to have anticipated the answer, and did not change the direction of walking, but continued to lead the four of them towards the northeast corner of the valley.
"In front of you is the arena under the waterfall. Please watch the battle across the water. Master likes to be quiet. I also hope that the four of you will not make any noise while watching the battle." The sword boy gave instructions in a low voice.
"Okay." He Qizhou nodded. The waterfall not far away was as thin as a white line, falling slowly with the twists and turns of the mountain. It was far less powerful than the waterfall in Bailian Mountain, but it was not less beautiful.
After walking dozens of steps with the sword boy, everyone came out through the forest, and their eyes suddenly opened up. Under the cliff of Hanjian Peak was a pool of half an acre, with a stone platform six or seven feet in diameter several feet above the water. The surface is extremely flat, and the rocks scattered in the pool have become paths leading to the stone platform. There is a stone carving on the cliff next to the thin waterfall in the north, with the word "Jiantai" written on it. A two-story bamboo building was built on the stone carving. below.
To the south of the water pool, fifty or sixty spectators were watching the fight between the two people on the stage. He Qizhou immediately saw Linghuye and others who had gone up the mountain first. The edge of the water pool was wide enough, so He Qizhou found a place diagonally facing the bamboo tower. We took Luo Yu and others to watch the fight on the stone platform in the center of the pool.
The two people competing on the stage were mediocre in martial arts. He Qizhou lost interest after just one glance. He raised his head and looked at the bamboo building opposite. There were three people sitting on the second floor platform of the bamboo building. They were all men. He Qizhou was slightly disappointed and had to Turn your attention to the stone platform again.
"Yingzhou Zhongzhou sent Ning Cheng to win." The fight on the stone platform ended quickly, and He Qizhou discovered that an old man was sitting cross-legged on a slightly lower stone a few feet away from the north side of the stone platform. The surface of the stone was also very smooth. About five feet square, a low case was placed on it. Seeing that the winner was decided, the old man stood up and announced the result.
"Ning Cheng, do you need to rest?" the old man asked the winner. The loser clutched his chest and trudged back to the pool from the rocks. A companion came up and asked him if he was seriously injured and if he wanted to. Call the villa to provide treatment.
The man shook his head, sat cross-legged and did exercises to heal his injuries, and told his companion that he wanted to see it again.
Ning Cheng on the stage had already replied to the old man: "No need to rest."
The old man unfolded the scroll in his hand and said loudly: "The next one, Xiazhou Anfu Gang Tan Yanzhuang, please sign the life and death certificate first."
A sturdy man jumped from the edge of the pool to the stone platform in two steps, each step taking more than three feet. Then he jumped from the stone platform to the stone where the old man was, wrote his name on the desk scroll, and pressed He put his fingerprints on it, then returned to the stone platform, cupped his fists and said to Ning Cheng: "Please enlighten me!"
"You, you, aren't you Tan Zhuang, the wanted gangster from the Flying Fox Gang?" Ning Cheng suddenly exclaimed.
"Lieutenant Chengdu, your name is not Ning Cheng, and you are not from the Yingzhou Zhongzhou faction! I heard that you, Cheng Ning, already had three wives and four concubines before you went to Yingzhou. Why, are you ready to divorce?" Tan Zhuang
I have long recognized the person on the stage.
"That's a good suggestion. Then I'll take your head and exchange it for silver as a betrothal gift!" Cheng Ning smiled grimly and pointed the tip of his sword at Tan Zhuang.
Tan Zhuang used a five-foot-long ring-headed sword and dragged it behind him. He took a step towards Cheng Ning and said, "Okay, if you have the ability, come and get it. If you don't, I will make you pay with your blood!"
"
"I'll say it again!" The old man stood up from behind the desk and said: "The martial arts competition is only for the point of getting married. If the winner is determined and you maliciously hurt someone again, don't blame me, Yu Wenchan, for being rude! Let's fight!"
The enemies were extremely jealous when they saw each other, and they started fighting to the death. (This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 576: Both sides suffer
Tan Zhuang, in particular, may have known that his martial arts skills were inferior, so he used all his moves to fight with all his strength, and his weird sword skills were only offensive but not defensive. This was the first time even He Qizhou had seen him.
Cheng Ning fought head-on with two moves at first, but he couldn't withstand the opponent's life-threatening attack and began to wander around the edge of the stone platform. His moves were also changed from the martial arts of the Zhongzhou School to the inheritance of the Tianlong Sect. The moves were similar to those of Chi Yan.
His attacks are vicious and vicious, and he is always ready to bite the opponent like a poisonous snake while walking around.
"Master, who do you think will win?" Luo Yu asked in a low voice, because both of them on the stage had six meridians and both had unfamiliar moves, so she really couldn't tell.
"No one can win." He Qizhou said.
"Ah? How is this possible? Master, just say a few more words." Luo Yuqi said.
"If the fight were not limited to the stone platform, Cheng Ning could win with a hundred moves. Tan Zhuang had obviously studied Cheng Ning and wanted to take advantage of the location and rely on his weapons and physical strength to kill the opponent. The purpose of his trip may be to follow Cheng Ning
, take revenge in the ring." He Qizhou said.
"I have heard about the Feihu Gang. It is said that the leader of the gang, Tan Zhuang, does all kinds of evil and is a ruthless character who kills people without blinking an eye. This man has extremely high martial arts skills and a strong sense of morale. When I saw him today, the rumors turned out to be true." Ling Su, who came closer, interjected.
"As long as Cheng Ning doesn't admit defeat, the result can only be a lose-lose situation for both sides." He Qizhou continued.
A man in a Confucian shirt not far from the four of them glanced sideways at He Qizhou, raised his head proudly and said, "My friend has good eyesight, but Cheng Ning will not admit defeat."
"Brother, how do you know? Do you remember me? We stayed in the same inn." Ling Su suddenly spotted an acquaintance and approached him and said.
"Because he has already won two games." The man in Confucian robes said as he raised his hand and opened the folding fan, blocking Ling Su three feet away. He seemed a little disgusted.
"Sorry, I'm a little dirty." Ling Su, who was dressed in white, rolled on the ground. Seeing that the other party didn't want to see him, he angrily retreated behind He Qizhou.
The facts turned out to be as He Qizhou expected. After more than a hundred moves, Cheng Ning, who was gradually losing his strength, deliberately used a flaw to lure Tan Zhuang to attack. He wanted to use the dark armor on his back to block the opponent's sword, while he sealed his throat with a sword.
, end the other person’s life.
As expected, Tan Zhuang fell into the trap and slashed Cheng Ning to the ground with a powerful and heavy knife. The blade split open his back armor and penetrated half an inch into the flesh. Cheng Ning's right arm blade was also chopped off;
Tan Zhuang didn't fare much better. Cheng Ning's sword penetrated his left shoulder. If Cheng Ning hadn't underestimated the power of the sword and deflected the sword tip when he fell to the ground, this sword would have killed Tan Zhuang on the spot.
The two people who were seriously injured fell to the ground and still wanted to fight. The swords went straight towards each other's heads. Seeing that they were about to die together, Yu Wenchan, who had been sitting on the small stone platform next to each other, suddenly appeared between them and blocked them.
He checked the acupuncture points of the two people, and then greeted them loudly: "Come here, send them down the mountain to treat them first. Both of their legs and feet are fine. Please ask them to leave tomorrow morning."
Four men immediately ran out of the small bamboo building, lifted up the two enemies who could not move, and quickly ran towards the mountain gate.
"You two, remember, if you want to fight or kill, you can reach the boundary of Hanjian Villa. As long as you cross that bridge, you can fight as much as you like!" Yu Wenchan reminded the two people on the stretcher again.
.
"There is no difference between the two people just now. They have both been eliminated. Please invite Tong Chen from Zhenwei Escort Bureau and Zhao Qianzhong from Yunjian Villa to come on stage." Yu Wenchan returned to the desk, looked at the names on the banner and shouted loudly.
Tong Chen was about thirty years old. Although he was dark and thin, he looked energetic. Zhao Qianzhong was the young master who had just praised Qi Zhou for his good eyesight. The two of them signed the life and death documents one after another, without saying much, and immediately started to fight.
.
Tong Chen used a wrought iron rod, while Zhao Qianzhong's weapon was the folding fan in his hand.
"No wonder he is so arrogant, he turns out to be the young master of Yunjian Villa." Even Ling Su could see that Zhao Qianzhong on the stage had the upper hand, and in his words he seemed to have forgiven the other party for his previous scorn.
"What is Yunjian Villa? Is it famous?" Luo Yu asked.
"Of course it cannot be compared with Hanjian Villa, but no one would question it as the Second Villa in the Great Zhou Dynasty, especially since the owner of Zhao Shao Villa has become famous recently and has subdued several famous horse bandits." Ling
Although Su was a little surprised that Luo Yu had never heard of Yunjian Villa, he still patiently introduced it.
"Is his family from the government?" Luo Yuqi asked. (This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 576: Both sides suffer
.
"It's true, the owner of the village is a duke, and many people in his family have joined the court as officials. After the Pei family fell, his family was the most prosperous. It seems that he is the most responsible for Miss Qi..."
"Shut up!" Luo Yu yelled angrily: "If you say such words again, get out of here immediately!"
"Yes, yes, why did I forget that there is still our master?" Ling Su didn't expect Luo Yu to fall out as soon as he said he would, and he was worried about being kicked out early, so he hurriedly changed his words.
It only took a few words for the fight on the stage to come to an end. Tong Chen, who was dressed in martial arts and practiced martial arts, could not touch a corner of Zhao Qianzhong's clothes. After receiving more than a dozen heavy blows, he knew he was outmatched.
Take the initiative to admit defeat.
Zhao Qianzhong smiled and clasped his fists, saying he was lucky, showing his elegant style.
"The next one is He Kun from Dafeng Hall in Bohai County. Where is He Kun? Who is He Kun?" Yuwen Chan called several times but no one responded.
"My brother is feeling a little unwell, so we will wait until tomorrow to fight again." Someone from the pond responded. _o_m
He Qizhou felt that the voice sounded familiar. He turned his head and looked around, and couldn't help but be surprised. The speaker was Hu Lun next to Helian Changying. He must be talking about He Kun, his brother Hu Kun. If these two people are here, then
Will Helian Changying be far behind?
