It was a cloud on the horizon, resembling the shape of a real dragon!
That kind of resemblance is not just based on imagination, but a real dragon shape. The dragon head, dragon horns, and dragon beards are all available. Except for the pure white color and simple texture, it looks like a living dragon in the clouds.
Moreover, this dragon only has half its body. The dragon's head pokes out from the clouds, and half of its body is hidden in the clouds and mist. Only one dragon claw is exposed, which is in line with the saying "the dragon can see its head but not its tail".
"That's... Long Yuan's handiwork, right?"
Directly below the cloud dragon is Baicheng, the gathering place. In the sky above Baicheng, such a lifelike cloud is maintained, covering the sky and the sun, and is not afraid of wind and rain. What kind of means are needed?
Using the sky and the earth as the base material and the white clouds as the weapon, it is also a great spirit in itself. In the past, only the swordsman's swordsmanship and the sword elephant could have such an atmosphere, but now the fu swordsman can also do it.
Jiang Shenyi raised his eyebrows and said: "This can be regarded as announcing to the world that a conference unique to Fu Sword Masters has begun!"
It is a conference that belongs exclusively to Fu Sword Masters, and it is also a conference that is hosted solely by Long Yuan. The dragon of Long Yuan is like the sun in the sky.
Baicheng is in sight. Starting from the sight of clouds and dragons in the sky, the closer to Baicheng, the warmer the atmosphere. Gradually there are pedestrians on the road, mostly young people. Some are in pairs, some are more, and occasionally there are people walking alone.
The smallest Talisman Sword Master force only has two disciples. The one with more people may be a big force. But that’s not necessarily the case. Tang Zhao and the others are just four people working together, but they are two small forces forming an alliance. They are not the only ones who can form alliances.
For those who are traveling alone, I don’t know what the method is. It may be that the small forces don’t have enough disciples and can only choose one to participate in the meeting. It may also be that the big forces are proud of themselves and don’t bother to win with more people, thinking that sending only one disciple is enough.
Make a name for yourself.
There are more talisman sword masters on the road, and there are a lot more scenery. The talisman sword masters always dress differently from ordinary people. They will more or less wear some unique-looking magic weapons. Those who attract wind are like Jiang Shenyi's wings, and those who are low-key are like Tang Zhao's.
jar.
I saw people with colorful crowns on their heads on the road, some wearing strange clothes, some holding lanterns during the day, and some holding umbrellas on sunny days. The way to travel is not only riding on horseback, but also walking, there are strange-shaped cars, various mounts, and people walking in the air, dragging
Smokey and cloudy.
If these people were walking on the road outside, they would inevitably attract people's attention, but those who came here were all young and energetic Talisman sword masters. At this time, the atmosphere became tense, and the road leading to Baicheng became a "show". Everyone took the time to
The most dazzling magic weapon was pulled out and displayed.
Several people were infected and eager to try. Tang Zhao advised: "Brother, your wings haven't come out yet? When the wind and thunder roll up, who here can be faster than you?"
Jiang Shenyi was a little moved, and then said: "What about you? I remember that you also have a good car, and the scenery is no worse than my wings. Why don't you show it out? If you show it out, everyone will have to watch your performance."
Che Sha said in surprise: "Brother, does he have a dazzling flying car?"
Tang Zhao waved his hand and said: "It's not a speeding car, it's a road car. It has no other advantages except that it looks good." He actually made a magic vehicle, which was modeled after the vehicle used in Mr. Chen's hometown, but it was the second grade of his junior high school.
I was so excited that I did it in private for fun, but it was still a bit embarrassing to show it in public.
Che Sha planned to continue to encourage Tang Zhao to take out the treasure at the bottom of the box, but someone in front of him said: "Okay, let's decide the outcome in the way of a Fu Sword Master!"
Tang Zhao suddenly looked at Jiang Shenyi.
Jiang Shenyi asked back: "What are you looking at me doing? It's not me who can shout."
The people around him made a slight commotion and gathered forward as they approached.
There is obviously a lot of fun and everyone wants to see it.
I saw two young men facing each other under a large rock, each holding a talisman pen and posing to write talismans.
A girl stood in the middle and said: "Okay, I'll bear witness. The rule is to increase one talisman at a time. I'll give the question -" She looked around, as if looking for inspiration.
"The question is - Fly! Left hand first!"
The boy on the left began to quickly write talismans on the big stone. It was a primary talisman "floating" composed of two basic talismans.
The young man on the right wrote it below without thinking, which is a primary symbol "floating" composed of three basic symbols.
Write next on the left.
Tang Zhao quickly understood. This competition was not much different from the one played by Jiang Shenyi and others before. There was also a question. Everyone wrote different talismans to see who was more knowledgeable. Their sense of ritual was stronger, and they had to write each time.
When adding a basic symbol, the number cannot be random. The longer the symbol is, the more difficult it will become.
However, compared to the thunder games that will explode if you can't write something, this game is too polite.
Tang Zhao followed the crowd and watched, silently writing in his mind. Until the twelve basic symbols were reached, one of them was so sweaty that he couldn't even write dozens of numbers, and was immediately sentenced to lose.
At this time, not only Tang Zhao was more than enough, but Wusuntong and Che Sha also felt that the other was inferior to them, and they couldn't help but feel complacent.
Everyone was in an uproar for a while, and then dispersed after seeing the excitement.
Jiang Shenyi commented: "It's just a comparison of the number of symbols and memory. This game is not interesting."
Tang Zhao nodded, this is similar to the "Feihua Ling" of poetry. It is just a collection of sentences, not a poem. It is fine for fun at the banquet. The imperial court holds an imperial examination, and it is impossible to take these tests to truly select the candidates.
After walking two steps, I saw a group of people gathered in front of me, which seemed to be lively again. A few people squeezed in with interest.
I saw a few people sitting around inside, playing cards.
But this is not an ordinary leaf card, but a kind of talisman card. It seems that each card has a basic talisman. There are hundreds of cards in the card library. How many of each basic talisman are there? Collect a few sets.
Take out the basic talisman, form the talisman and type it out to compete with each other.
As for how to compete with each other to win or lose, there seems to be a set of rules similar to "fist-paper-scissors", which is quite complicated and I couldn't figure it out at the moment.
Although everyone was just sitting quietly, the fighting in the card game was very exciting. The game changed rapidly, and the outcome was reversed in an instant. There were many restless people around who cheered and shouted, and cheered when the winner was decided.
, sighs and curses came and went.
After looking at it for a while, Che Sha said, "What's the name of this card? It's quite interesting."
As soon as these words were spoken, several looks came to him, mostly with surprise and disdain. The meaning seemed to be: "How come there is a country bumpkin who has never even seen a talisman?"
Tang Zhao also felt this silent contempt, and suddenly felt bored. He no longer wanted to watch the excitement, so he quit for the time being. He heard someone behind him say: "There are still some Talisman Sword Masters in the land of Jiuzhou who don't know how to draw Talisman."
Cards? Oh, it looks like he's from out of state, so that's fine."
Kyushu...that is, the traditional inner Kyushu.
Both Yunzhou and Liangzhou can be considered marginal places. They are different from the traditional Inner Kyushu and belong to the Outer Ten States. Although they are rich in martial arts, they are not as deep as the Central Plains. Although Tang Zhao and others are confident and believe that they have the talent and learning in their hearts.
, his skills are not inferior to others, but he still has admiration for the Central Plains in his heart.
It's just that this admiration was softened a lot after seeing all kinds of tragedies along the way. What about Yanzhou, Yongzhou, all kinds of natural and man-made disasters, and the people living in poverty. The Central Plains may not be better than the frontiers.
At this time, several people thought: You are all desperate, how can you play cards?
Although it is very uncomfortable, it is not convenient to play cards. You should not be able to play cards against the experienced players. People have been immersed in cards for many years, and various combinations and routines are already familiar to them. Even if they learn it temporarily, no matter how smart they are, it will take a while, then
It's such a waste of time. Fighting for supremacy doesn't involve playing cards.
Along the way, I saw quite a few small gatherings like this on the road. They were all simple battles, mainly in the form of games, fighting cards, fighting talismans, fighting wits, and fighting strength. It can be seen that the talisman sword masters from Kyushu in the Central Plains are entertaining and entertaining.
There are quite a lot of mini-games, which is also a kind of heritage. The talisman meeting hasn't started yet, but there are some garden party activities outside.
But a game is a game, and it may be based on real swords and guns, but after playing it for many years, it has its own set of gameplay, which is far from a real fight.
Just as I was thinking about it, Baicheng was right in front of me.
Baicheng is built on a hillside, next to a large lotus pond. The dragon of white clouds coils around the top of the mountain, as if it is integrated with the mountain, city and pond.
This mountain was originally covered with snow all year round. Decades ago, Jianzhou passed by here and changed the environment. Since then, it has become increasingly geothermal, and the peak waist has turned into a large pond. The water in the pond is warm, like a hot spring. Lotus flowers are in full bloom in the pond.
White lotus, red lotus, yellow lotus, the flowers bloom brilliantly and have a fragrant fragrance.
Good pond, good water, good lotus flowers.
When Tang Zhao saw the clear water, his heart suddenly moved:
This...the elements are so complete! I really want to summon the fairy sister here!
It's a pity that there are people here to watch. Otherwise, the few top-quality materials he got on the way should be exchanged for more top-quality materials.
The lotus pond is quiet, completely different from the hustle and bustle at the bottom of the mountain. Only a few young people are sitting on the bluestone on the shore fishing, concentrating on fishing, as if they want to catch something forever.
There is a city on the bank of the pool. Its walls are white as snow and almost blend into the snow-capped mountains in the distance. It is called the White City.
Baicheng is a small city, with a height of only a few feet and a population of only tens of thousands. It is usually very clean, but at this time there was a lot of excitement. I saw a tall pole standing at the gate of the city, with several ropes attached to it, and colorful flags flying on the ropes.
.
If you look closely, you will see that the names of various forces are written on those colorful flags. At a rough count, there are hundreds of colorful flags.
Tang Zhao hurriedly went over to see the name of his Zhuoyu Villa. After searching for a long time, he found a black flag in an inconspicuous place.
I heard someone introduce: "The five-color flags, gold, silver, copper and iron are lower in order. The black flag is the lowest, the green flag is slightly higher, the white flag is higher. The gold flag is the highest. The seven-color flags above are the seven major forces, which others don't have to think about.
.”
Although Tang Zhao knew that Zhuoyu Villa was a small force, he was ranked at the bottom and felt very uncomfortable. But if he said that he was stronger than others, there seemed to be no basis for it.
Under the colorful flag, there are two wooden plaques hanging on it. One side is the "New Talisman Ranking", which ranks young Talisman Sword Masters. There are only a few names.
On the other side, there is a seating chart. It is the seats for the Fuhui banquet seven days later.
Tang Zhao and Jiang Shenyi leaned over to take another look, and couldn't help but say, "This...why is this?"
