Chapter 177 Grand Event (2 in 1)

Halfway up the mountain.

The high-pitched rooster crow came from the distance, waking up the sun and the sky was getting whiter.

The slanting morning sun passes through the shadows of the trees, casting patches of colorful scenery.

Listen to the whispers around you.

Although Zheng Xiu couldn't hear what they were saying clearly like Xie Luohe.

But ever since Zheng Xiu knew that the person he was pretending to be was "Xiao Buping", he knew what he was about to experience.

His reputation is too great.

In an era of closed information, it is not difficult to pretend to be another person in front of others.

There are no photos or videos, so the spread of "Xiao Buping's" deeds mostly depends on word of mouth.

"Thanks to you all for your honor, I came to Hidden Sword Villa to participate in the martial arts competition. Dugu is not talented and has the courage to preside over this matter. I hope you can compete in martial arts here, but I kindly ask you all heroes not to fight to the death, which will hurt the harmony."

In silence, unexpected things happen.

Zheng Xiu coughed twice and explained: "I've always heard a little bit about it, but seeing it with my own eyes doesn't mean I believe it."

He subconsciously wondered whether what this hero wanted to try was the swordsmanship of the Dugu family, or the great sword forged by the Dugu family.

For a moment, he thought Feng Bei was standing there.

On the high platforms, there are crowds of people. One by one, the martial arts warriors choose their seats. There is a long case in front of each person, and there are several cups of fragrant tea on the case. Three or two acquaintances sit at the same table, either quietly, or bowing their heads in meditation, or

They were whispering, but most of their eyes were looking at the center of the Sword Asking Platform, where a tall man wearing a feather crown and carrying a broad sword was facing a bronze tripod, holding three pillars of incense in his hands, and bowed in worship.

"The Hidden Sword Villa has three unique skills, which are well-known in the world. The first skill is the sword. The swordsmanship at the Hidden Sword Villa is unparalleled in the world. The second skill is the weapon. As we all know, the weapons forged in the Hidden Sword Villa can break the hair when blown, and can be called heirloom treasures.

The third best thing is tea. The tea 'Jianbeiyou' grown in the mountains behind Zangjian Villa has a fragrance that spreads for ten miles and is so fragrant that it is hard to buy even one or two for a thousand dollars."

The young man smiled and wrote the three words "Xiao Buping" on the wooden sign. Although he still looked neither humble nor overbearing when he spoke, Zheng Xiu was keenly aware that his frequent refills of tea seemed to have angered him. He was waiting.

Watching yourself laugh.

He has fully experienced Xie Luohe's pettiness and is particularly grudge-y.

Zheng Xiu took the hero sticker back with a headache. The two book boys secretly pushed back and forth, and after a secret fight, they made a decision. In the end, Xiaozhuang led Xiao Buping into the Hidden Sword Villa.

At the end of the stone steps, a green roof gradually appeared in Zheng Xiu's field of vision.

The road up the mountain is not even rugged and dangerous. There is a stone staircase leading directly to the top of the mountain.

Zheng Xiu calmly handed over the hero card.

Although Zheng Xiu often forgets that he is in a false world of memory because it is too realistic. But he will think of it every time at critical moments. When the waves in his heart rise, Zheng Xiu quickly calms down and quietly watches the scene while sipping tea.

Change.

"My lord, my lord."

"Xiao Buping."

This is the forbidden area of ​​Hidden Sword Villa - Wenjian Terrace. Normally, only the head of the family, Dugu Xiang, and his elite disciples can go to Wenjian Terrace to meditate and learn the way of swordsmanship. Xiaozhuang said that this is the first time he has seen this in his thirteen years of life.

The sword-asking stage is so lively.

Dugu Xiang sat in the highest row, and sitting with him were four gray-haired old men, who seemed to be seniors of the Dugu family.

At first Zheng Xiu was a little worried about meeting Xiao Buping's acquaintances or enemies in the martial arts competition, but then he thought about it carefully and realized that Xie Luohe was not worried at all. He had nothing to worry about, so he relaxed and slowly walked up the mountain with a playful attitude.

Hearing this, the scholar suddenly realized. Zheng Xiu's words made him feel very comfortable. His words were somewhat flattering, but not flattering.

The tea has a sweet aroma, with hidden floral aroma, and a hint of intoxicating honey that lingers on the tip of the tongue and in the mouth, leaving people with endless aftertaste.

"When did she..."

"Uh, thank you, let me have another pot."

Yeah, good tea.

In the distance, black smoke billows from the tops of the workshops, while nearby, there are rows of green eaves, with flying buttresses and half-curved bridges interspersed among them.

But Zheng Xiu smiled and didn't point it out.

Zheng Xiu couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart.

When Xiaozhuang introduced the long history of Cangjian Villa to Zheng Xiu, they passed by workshops one after another.

The circular sword-asking platform building is surrounded by twelve sword pillars. This is obviously an ancient sundial, used for timekeeping. Zheng Xiu rubbed his chin and looked at it. He estimated that this historical relic was not built by the ancestors of the Dugu family, but was built earlier.

It exists, but the Dugu family discovered it earlier than others and occupied it.

"Let's take a look first."

Wearing a black outfit with moon patterns on the sleeves, her long black hair is tied up high, and the black hair on the right side hangs naturally. The well-fitting outfit highlights Xie Luohe's bumpy figure, but it does not appear delicate and charming, but has a sharp sword-like figure.

The woman's face is wearing a black "crow"-shaped mask, which adds a bit of ferocity and ominousness to her.

"Master Xiao, please."

The scene was orderly. Dugu Xiang left the center of the sword-asking platform and walked step by step up the steps to the highest floor. Soon someone moved a huge sign, which was covered by a red curtain.

Zheng Xiu's eyes didn't stay on Xie Luohe for too long. He quickly moved away and ruffled Xiao Tao's hair with a smile: "Don't look around."

He happily explained to Zheng Xiu what the "Three Absolutes" were.

"hiss."

For example, there were three women opposite, wearing peach-colored floral blouses and bulging waists. They seemed to belong to a sect that Chu Chengfeng had mentioned that was good at using soft swords and only accepted female disciples.

"Shu Tong Xiaozhuang,"

What he was worried about was not Xieluohe, but himself and Xiaotao.

In front of the eyes, twelve stone pillars are distributed in a clockwise manner on the sword-asking platform. There are circles of high platforms around the sword-asking platform, with the center sinking downwards, like an ancient fighting arena.

Zheng Xiu had been teased by Xie Luohe several times, and he did not think it was Feng Bei showing up, but firmly believed that Xie Luohe deliberately used this method to annoy him.

"This young master, please show me your hero card."

Zheng Xiu's reaction made the book boy slightly startled.

When the young man saw "Xiao Buping" tasting tea so skillfully and with a hint of nobility hidden in his eyes, he was surprised in his eyes, but he didn't say anything and quietly left.

Zheng Xiu asked: "Is Hidden Sword Villa famous for its forging of weapons?"

Zheng Xiu didn't expect so many people to come to the martial arts conference.

At this time, Xiao Tao secretly pulled Zheng Xiu's sleeve, blushed and pressed into Zheng Xiu's ear: "Look over there."

Xie Luohe definitely did not come to attend the conference, Zheng Xiu was very sure of this.

After all, most Jianghu knights are accustomed to eating and sleeping in the open air and having simple meals, so they have little interest in tasting tea.

Most of the legends about Invincible Seniors use this template.

It's really embarrassing. It's Xiao Buping who is being embarrassed. What does it have to do with Zheng Xiu?

Expensive? That’s right. Drink more.

Perhaps the description of Xiao Buping after dinner in the world is: tall and tall, handsome in appearance, shaking a folding fan with the four words "Happy in the World" written on it, and he will be surrounded by beautiful women, hand in hand to enjoy the world. Look.

, isn’t that exactly right? We can’t say they are similar, we can only say they are exactly the same.

After living for hundreds of years, he realized the ultimate in swordsmanship and "stepped through the void and ascended to the upper realm."

Xiao Tao subconsciously grasped Zheng Xiu's sleeve.

Although Dugu Xiang is known as the best swordsman in the world, he is not overly arrogant in his words and deeds. After speaking his opening remarks calmly, he clapped his hands.

As the saying goes, dogs... ahem, as the saying goes, bandits can't change their habits, Xie Luohe definitely has Xiao Jiujiu hidden in his heart, does she think she won't know if she doesn't tell him?

Hope everyone is okay.

Brother Xiao, Brother Xiao, how high your status is in the world is really difficult for me.

Whether in reality or in the world of Gongsun Mo's memories, Zheng Xiu rarely heard anyone mention "stepping through the void and ascending to the upper realm". It was too ethereal and sounded like bragging.

Xiaozhuang looked at Zheng Xiu in surprise: "Xiao Daxia doesn't know the 'three unique skills' of Hidden Sword Villa that are unique in the world?"

They held a plate in their hands.

Zheng Xiu looked at the two reactions in confusion, his thoughts were outrageous.

Zheng Xiu was just about to say no, but then he thought about the role he played, and asked: "I wonder if Chu Chengfeng, the third young master of Plum Blossom Villa, is here. He and I have been old friends for many years. We haven't seen each other for a long time and I am very worried about him."

The young man lowered his head and wrote the words "Xiao Buping" hard on the wooden sign.

Zheng Xiu didn't really want to find Chu Chengfeng. He knew very well that Chu Beard was now so destitute that he was working as a bandit in Yunhe Village.

Zheng Xiu saw towering stone pillars standing upright.

hehe.

Zheng Xiu smiled slightly.

Xiaozhuang, the scholar, pointed to the sword-asking platform and lowered his voice: "The master of the family has begun the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, asking for God's protection, and please Daxia Xiao not to disturb the master of the family's recitation."
To be continued...
