The Birth of Tianjiao Chapter 8: Treasure Suspicious Clouds
The sky is gray, like a terrifying giant beast hidden in the sky. Without the lights of thousands of houses, the world seems to be swallowed up by it at any time.
Sima Liang stepped forward and cupped his fists towards Dugu Xiaotian, "May I ask who your sect is, young hero? Why do you want to help the Golden Sword Sect?"
"I have no family and no sect. I saw the Guandong sect bullying weak women with despicable methods, so I took action." Xiaotian said calmly.
Sima Liang sneered when he heard this, "The Golden Sword Sect has obtained half of the treasure map of Houyuan Treasure. Everyone knows this, so why should the young hero pretend to be confused?"
Dugu Xiaotian looked confused, "What treasure map? I don't know what you are talking about."
Sima Liang took a deep look at Dugu Xiaotian, "Your Excellency is young and possesses amazing martial arts skills, so he must have a great background. I don't want to be your enemy at first, but this matter is related to the treasure. Since we, the Guandong Sect, are going all out to
Come on, we can't end in such a disgraceful way, otherwise we will be ridiculed by our comrades."
"Old sir, how can you stop fighting and let everyone in the Golden Sword Sect go?" Xiaotian asked in a deep voice.
"It's very simple. After winning the sword in my hand, I, the Guandong faction, will no longer ask about the treasure and return to Changbai Mountain immediately." Sima Liang slowly pulled out the sword from behind and performed the "immortal guide" move.
"Okay, let me ask the old gentleman for advice!" Dugu Xiaotian also started to show his strength.
"Wait a minute, little brother, I might be at a disadvantage if I use my bare hands. Please use my Wind Chasing Sword, young hero!" Jin Linfeng took two steps forward and handed the sword in his hand to Dugu Xiaotian.
Xiaotian took the sword, injected his inner energy and shook it, and the sword made a buzzing sound.
"What a sword, much sharper than my Pingtian sword." Dugu Xiaotian thought to himself.
Seeing this, Sima Liang couldn't help but look a little solemn.
"Take the move", Sima Liang stepped on the seven-star step, and with a move of "Wind Rolling Clouds", the sword pierced Dugu Xiaotian's eyebrows.
Dugu Xiaotian's basic sword stance in the "Army of the Laughing Angel", an upward lunge, and the long sword stabbed Sima Liang's wrist diagonally. Sima Liang did not wait for the sword to be used, retracted his arm, and made a move of "Desert Sunset", slashing diagonally towards Xiaotian. Dugu Xiaotian
In one move, he paused and jumped up, then raised his sword.
After seven or eight moves, Sima Liang's face turned ugly. The moves used by his opponent were all basic swordsmanship moves, but he used them extremely skillfully. He even used a few moves of the Guandong School's exquisite swordsmanship, but he was able to defeat them all.
.
My internal strength has been cultivated to the sixth level of the Guandong School's internal strength. At this time, the swords are intersecting, but I can't take any advantage.
Sima became anxious and shouted "Top Gun". He held the hilt of the sword with both hands, and with his left foot as the central axis, he rotated his body and slashed diagonally towards Xiaotian.
This move "Top Ambition" is a unique move of the Lingtian swordsmanship of the Guandong School. It has the courage to move forward in an indomitable and majestic way.
"Tsk", Dugu Xiaotian made a forward thrust and stabbed the Jiaoxin point on Sima Liang's left leg with his long sword. Before Sima Liang could swing the sword halfway, his body tilted and he fell to the ground.
Sima Liang stood up from the ground, his face flushed. He put the sword into its sheath and handed it over to Dugu Xiaotian: "Young hero doesn't want to show off his martial arts skills. He defeated me with basic sword skills, which shows his skill."
"I'm sorry, we will return to Changbai Mountain immediately." Sima Liang waved to the disciples of the Guandong Sect, "Let's go!" The disciples of the Guandong Sect did not dare to say anything, put away their swords, and walked out of the Golden Sword Gate.
Sima Liang walked to the door, turned around and said, "The treasure of the Houyuan Dynasty has astonishing wealth. Young heroes should be careful of conspiracies and tricks!", and then walked away.
After the Guandong sect withdrew for a while, the disciples in the Golden Sword Clan cheered for a while. Everyone was still frightened. If this young knight hadn't saved them today, the Golden Sword Clan would have been destroyed.
Jin Linfeng stepped back and led Dugu Xiaotian into the inner hall. "I wonder where your hometown is, young hero Gao?" Jin Linfeng asked respectfully.
"My name is Dugu Xiaotian. I have lived on the Bohai Sea for generations and made a living by fishing." Xiaotian replied. After hearing this, Jin Linfeng's face froze, but he did not ask further questions. "Young hero heard that Sima Liang mentioned Hou Yuan.
Treasure, do you have any impression?"
"I don't know!" Dugu Xiaotian replied firmly.
Jin Linfeng looked at Dugu Xiaotian seriously for a long while and sighed.
"Young hero regards wealth as dirt, I admire you! Young hero will rest in my guest room at Golden Sword Gate for the time being. When my disciple Zhang Songlin's injury improves, we will talk to young hero together."
Jin Linfeng cupped his fists and saluted, and then arranged for someone to prepare a large courtyard for Dugu Xiaotian to live in the inner courtyard of Jinjianmen. In the next ten days, Dugu Xiaotian lived in the other courtyard of Jinjianmen and continued to practice.
Master Hongmeng Jin and Junzhong's boxing and swordsmanship.
Since the enlightenment of practicing boxing on the Bohai Sea, Xiaotian obviously felt that his inner strength cultivation had accelerated a lot. In just twenty days, Hongmeng Jin had reached the middle stage of the fourth level.
On this day, Zhang Songlin's injury improved slightly and he could barely walk. Jin Linfeng took him to see Dugu Xiaotian.
"Songlin, please tell the young hero the whole story about Houyuan Treasure." Jin Linfeng ordered.
"Master, young hero, my disciple, a month ago, encountered two disciples of the Guandong Sect who were torturing a down-and-out scholar, and they used cruel methods. The disciple couldn't bear it, so he repelled the two Changbai disciples and rescued the scholar." Zhang Songlin
Slowly talking about the events of the day,
"After the disciple rescued the scholar, who was already dying, he only said one sentence: 'Long-term peace and stability, take refuge in my Buddha; reward good and punish evil, Skanda subdues demons'."
"After saying these words, the scholar passed away. The disciple didn't know what he meant, so he just buried the scholar. But he didn't expect that the Guandong sect would continue to pester our Golden Sword Sect and bring such disaster to the sect. The disciple deserves death!
"After Zhang Songlin finished speaking, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.
Jin Linfeng helped Zhang Songlin up and said warmly: "We are brave enough to do what is right. This disaster has passed, and Songlin no longer has to blame himself."
"Long-lasting peace, take refuge in my Buddha; reward good and punish evil, Skanda subdues demons." "These may be the cynical and angry words of the scholar before his death," Jin Linfeng said slowly.
The three of them didn't have much knowledge. Dugu Xiaotian only studied poetry and calligraphy with his mother for three or four years when he was young. They didn't understand the meaning of the scholar's words, so they just exposed it.
In the blink of an eye, another five months have passed, and Xiaotian has been treated as a distinguished guest by the Jinjian Sect. He has a monthly salary of thirty taels of silver, and he has no worries about food and clothing.
In addition to practicing martial arts on weekdays, he also consulted with Master Dugu about Jianghu accidents and martial arts knowledge. Although Jin Linfeng was surprised, he patiently answered them one by one. When the two encountered difficulties, they also started to show off their tactics, and Jin Linfeng took the opportunity to help Blast Feng.
The swordsmanship was also passed on to Dugu Xiaotian.
Xiaotian has practiced martial arts with his father since he was a child, and then practiced on his own in the past few years. In fact, he has not been taught by a real famous teacher in the martial arts world. His basic martial arts knowledge is shallow, he lacks a systematic understanding of the entire martial arts system, and he lacks actual combat experience against the enemy.
With Jin Linfeng's guidance on the basics of martial arts and the practice of fighting with each other, Xiaotian's martial arts improved rapidly. In the past five months, Hongmeng Jin had reached the peak of the fourth level, and his boxing and sword skills were also greatly improved.
At this time, the war was in chaos. Northern merchants were transporting goods for their families and invited many bodyguards to accompany them.
Jinjianmen makes a living by running short-distance escorts in Datong, Shunting, and Changchun, Shanxi Province. Dugu Xiaotian has participated in 6 escort trips in Jinjianmen in the past five months. He has witnessed the suffering of people in the north along the way, and has become more determined to help those in need.
