After listening attentively for a while, I found that I still found nothing.
Could it be that Brother Li's internal strength is still better than mine?
I was surprised when the sound of singing finally reached my ears, and it got closer and closer.
Suddenly, a flash of sword light crossed the void, and a person had already arrived in front of everyone.
He lifted his nose and smelled it, looked at the roast chicken that was heating by the campfire, and swallowed:
“I’ve met a few kids.
"I am here late at night and have nowhere to stay. Can I use the firelight to warm myself up and cook chicken to fill my stomach?"
Jiang Ran glanced at him.
This is an old man. It’s hard to tell his age. I think he is about fifty or sixty years old.
He was dressed in gray and had a sword casually in his hand, which looked very worthless.
But what was even less valuable than his sword was the smile on his face at this moment.
This smile seemed to be very contagious. When Jiang Ran saw him smiling, he laughed too.
The smile on the old man's face became even wider.
Just when he was smiling more and more happily, Jiang Ran said:
"No borrowing."
"Hahaha...good...ah?"
The old man's smile suddenly stopped: "Don't you want to borrow it?"
"No borrowing."
Jiang Ran nodded firmly: "Yes, you heard that right."
The old man immediately curled his lips:
“Today’s young people really don’t know how to respect the elderly and care for the young.
"That's all, I originally wanted to give you a chance, but I didn't expect you to be so indifferent and refuse to borrow if you don't want to, I..."
When he said this, he saw the fallen leaves behind him suddenly break through a line.
A man in black suddenly approached. Wherever he passed, fallen leaves naturally parted on both sides, and his sharp palms had already reached the old man's back.
The old man sighed again:
"here we go again……"
At this point, he turned his long sword around, as if he was carrying it on his back.
He happened to be in front of that palm.
There was a ding sound.
The fire roared and roared for a moment, and the clothes of everyone present were blown by the strong wind from the two men's fight.
But at this moment, the old man suddenly turned around, pressing and sending the long sword in his hand.
The sword is as powerful as a dragon's point.
Seeing this, Ruan Yuqing suddenly let out a startled "Eh".
It can be seen that although this sword seems simple, it seems to just go straight.
In fact, the power of the sword is hidden in the dark, and it has blocked the man in black everywhere. No matter whether he is advancing or retreating, dashing left or right, going up to the sky or into the earth, he is all covered by the sword.
And the martial arts of the man in black are not weak either.
Ruan Yuqing could see the power of the sword, and he naturally had a keen eye for fire.
Therefore, he did not retreat or advance, nor did he dodge to the left or right. Instead, he drew a circle with both hands, one left and one right, until the palms of his hands were facing each other at the end.
At this time, the tip of the sword had reached his chest.
The area covered by the palm is exactly the same as when the sword tip came.
Immediately, his inner breath changed, and the invisible inner force locked the sword between his two palms.
Buzz!
The sound of the sword roared in an instant, and as soon as the invisible internal force came into contact with the sword, the force that escaped immediately hit the surrounding area with flying sand and rocks, making a loud roar.
The old man stepped forward a little, and with a bang, a deep pit was created.
The long sword in his hand went straight forward, trying to break the restraints and pierce the heart of the man in black.
But there seemed to be another inch of world between the opponent's two palms. No matter how much the old man exerted his inner strength, he could not break it open and could only push the man in black back.
The man in black stepped forward in unison, and with every step he took, a pit exploded in the ground.
After taking seven or eight steps back, the ground rumbled seven or eight times.
It wasn't until the ninth step that the man in black paused. One of his heels suddenly tilted outwards, and his toes pressed down. While he was steadying his body, white mist suddenly shot into the sky behind him.
And rise.
The internal energy of the whole body has reached its peak.
Suddenly, he turned his palms.
The old man's sword blade suddenly rippled like water, like a spiritual snake that had its vital parts strangled.
However, the old man tilted his head slightly, and a smile actually emerged from the corner of his mouth:
"interesting!"
Use your left hand as a sword finger and point one finger on the hole on the forearm of your right hand.
In an instant, a dragon's roar suddenly sounded.
It was as if a dragon swam out from behind the old man and crashed into the sword in his hand.
The long sword suddenly straightened, the tip of the sword was like a dragon's head, and a magnificent sword energy was suddenly sent out.
The man in black's expression suddenly changed when he saw this.
Turn your hands over again, and the energy around your body becomes as solid as water.
Only a loud bang was heard!
The two figures fell and flew away.
The old man retreated, rolled several times in mid-air, and landed on a tree.
The tip of the sword tilted, and where the sharp edge pointed, there was a loud bang, creating a deep crater.
The figure of the man in black retreated smoothly for a distance of seven to eight feet.
With a flick of his sleeves, two sword marks were drawn on the ground on both sides.
"Not bad, not bad. I haven't seen you in five years, and your [Tianxuan Ruyi Palm] has improved again.
"The inner strength is profound and it becomes more and more unpredictable."
The old man laughed loudly and touched around in his arms. After a while, he actually took out a handful of peanuts, threw one into his mouth, and chewed it non-stop.
Occasionally, when I looked back at the roast chicken beside Jiang Ran's fire, I felt that the usually sweet and delicious peanuts suddenly lost their fragrance.
The man in black snorted coldly:
"Your [Dragon Sword Technique] is still as difficult as before..."
"I haven't heard anything about you in the past few years. I thought you had been buried in peace. I didn't expect that you could still appear in the world and do evil."
"…Stop talking nonsense.
"Which one did something wrong?"
"That's you!"
The man in black said coldly: "If you are not convinced, come back and fight again!"
"I'll beat you if I hit you... I'm afraid of you, don't you?"
Having said this, the old man was about to fly up, but when he moved, he frowned slightly and stood up again.
Seeing this, the man in black suddenly showed a mocking smile:
"Are you afraid that you won't come even if you say you're going to come?
"Oh, no!
"You are more than ten years older than me. Now I am afraid that you are too old and weak to have any success, right?
"If you don't come, then it's up to me!"
After saying this, he moved his palms and was about to press them down, but he also let out a muffled groan.
The old man burst out laughing when he saw this:
"You have the nerve to say that to me? I have long seen that you have been almost exhausted in the past three days.
"If I force you to continue fighting, I'm afraid the white-haired man will give you the black-haired man... I didn't do anything just now because I wanted to save your face and life.
"It's a pity that you don't know how to be grateful. Instead, you talk harshly. It's really like a dog biting Lu Dongbin and not recognizing a good heart."
"What kind of good person are you..."
The man in black became even more furious when he heard this.
Jiang Ran and others sat aside, eating and drinking while watching the two people bickering.
Just listen to Ruan Yuqing say:
"It turns out it was them..."
"who are they?"
Jiang Ran asked hurriedly.
"...ignorant and ignorant."
Tang Huayi rolled her eyes at him.
"Who are you talking about?"
Jiang Ran stared.
"Have you ever heard of the ancient Xi Zhi of the 'Dragon Divine Sword'?"
Tang Huayi asked calmly.
"……No."
"That's all. How dare you say that you are not ignorant."
Tang Huayi said with a smile: "One of these two people is Gu Xizhi, the Heavenly Dragon Divine Sword, and the other should be the Jingtan layman from 'Yaxin Xiaozhu'. His Tianxuan Ruyi Palm is very famous. But I didn't expect that he could actually compete with it."
The battle of Tianlong Divine Sword has ended...
"By the way, does Miss Ruan know what grudges there are between the two of them? Why does it sound like they have a bad relationship?"
"Bad fate?"
Ruan Yuqing shook his head:
"I don't know much about these senior Jianghu people.
"However, it has been almost fifty years since Gu Xi's senior debuted in the world. It can almost be said that the two of them are not from the same era.
"How can there be any grievances?"
"Who can say for sure what happens in the Jianghu world?"
Tang Huayi said with a smile: "Looking at their appearance, I always feel that they are trapped by love, maybe they are turning against the woman."
"Is this...possible?"
Ruan Yuqing was a little surprised: "The age gap between them is huge. If it is really for a woman, then how old will this person be?"
The two of them were about to have an in-depth gossip about this matter.
Jiang Ran quickly interrupted them:
"That's enough for you. They are still here. Is it appropriate to gossip loudly in front of them?"
Ruan Yuqing and Tang Huayi just woke up from a dream. They looked up and found that Gu Xizhi and Jingtan layman were all looking at them.
Jingtan layman's face was expressionless, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Gu Xizhi on the tree was cheerful and seemed to want to follow in the gossip.
Ruan Yuqing's face turned red and she quickly stood up:
"Ruan Yuqing of the Shuiyue Sword Sect has met two seniors."
"Shuiyue Sword Sect? You are the Soft Water Sword."
Gu Xizhi smiled and said: "Speaking of which, I haven't seen my old sweetheart Shui Xiyin for a long time. How is she doing lately?"
"ah!?"
When Ruan Yuqing heard this, his mind was buzzing.
In an instant, he performed a drama about the love and hatred between his senior sister, Tianlong Divine Sword and Jingtan layman.
But when I thought about it again, I felt something was not right.
If Shui Xiyin and Gu Xizhi are old friends, then why hasn't Gu Xizhi come to the Shuiyue Sword Sect for so many years?
What if the two people really turned against each other because of Shui Xiyin?
That would always be entangled with the Shuiyue Sword Sect.
With this thought, I finally realized that I had been led into a ditch by 'Li Tianxin'.
He was just talking nonsense, but he actually believed it to be true, and used it as a basis to expand his imagination... Naturally, all the speculations he made were rootless duckweeds, how could he be so accurate?
Immediately he frowned:
"Senior, please be careful. It was the junior who was just talking nonsense and it was really inappropriate. I am here to apologize to my senior.
"But my senior sister is pure and pure, so I ask my senior to show mercy."
"Hahaha."
Gu Xizhi laughed loudly:
"Okay, okay, it's not easy for you Shuiyue Sword Sect. You have always adhered to the rules and I won't make fun of you.
"But, the roast chicken..."
Ruan Yuqing glanced at Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran smiled, picked up one, tore off half of it, and threw it to Gu Xizhi.
Gu Xi's detective took it and immediately felt happy:
"Okay, okay, let's leave it at that as you just said, I'm not a stingy person, am I?
"As for the idea of wearing black clothes and going out in the middle of the night and pretending to be a ghost that day, I can't interfere with it.
"After all, this person is small-minded and narrow-minded..."
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Jingtan layman sneered:
"Why do others care about him when he gossips?
"However, you haven't been out of the world for five years. Why are you traveling this time?"
"Whatever you do, I do."
While eating the roasted chicken, Gu Xizhi exclaimed: "It smells so good."
"..."
Jingtan layman looked at Gu Xizhi coldly and let out a breath:
"I will do this, you don't have to worry."
"I'm just afraid that if you don't do well, you'll make her sad again."
Gu Xizhi said lightly: "If it weren't for your intervention, how could she have fallen into this situation?"
"How dare you say that!?"
Jingtan layman was furious.
Seeing that the two were about to fight again, Tang Huayi winked at Ruan Yuqing.
Ruan Yuqing opened her mouth, and she also heard that the two people seemed to have gotten into such a situation because of a woman.
What he has to do now when he returns to the world is also for that woman.
However, despite his age, Gu Xiyi still has such thoughts, which is surprising.
Jiang Ran shook his head and felt a little bored. He opened the wine gourd and took a sip. He smacked his lips and felt that the world in the gourd was the real pleasure in the world.
He leaned against the tree trunk, but frowned again:
"It's quite lively tonight."
However, except for Luo Qingyi and Mr. Da, Tang Huayi and Ruan Yuqing, who were focused on listening to the gossip, did not notice this.
Gu Xizhi and Jingtan layman did not continue to take action.
They had been fighting for three days and three nights before this.
Now that they are not moving, they are both recovering their Qi and meridians. If they fight like before, it will really hurt their muscles and bones.
The core of this fight is mainly a verbal spat.
But while these two people were arguing endlessly, Tang Huayi and Ruan Yuqing kept eating melon, Luo Qingyi was drowsy, Mr. Da was writing furiously, Man Shengming was unconscious, and Jiang Ran was tipsy.
Sounds of breaking wind suddenly sounded.
They came out from all directions, but in the blink of an eye, Jiang Ran and others were surrounded.
Luo Qingyi sat up straight with a start, looking around a little sleepily.
But after seeing this group of people clearly, I felt a little more awake.
This group of people were uniformly dressed in red clothes and carried knives at their waists.
Regardless of whether they were men or women, there was a coldness between their eyebrows.
"who?"
Luo Qingyi frowned slightly and stood up.
Gu Xizhi tilted his head, a little surprised:
"Isn't this the Blood Knife Hall?
"You young people, who do you want to provoke? How did you provoke them?"
Jingtan layman sneered:
"Blood Sword Hall... Xuanyuan Yida?"
Tang Huayi and Ruan Yuqing also came back to their senses and looked around.
"The Blood Knife Hall is one of the Thirteen Gangs of the Two Sects, Five Swords and Seven Sects."
Tang Huayi glanced at Jiang Ran:
"Tonight is so fierce, I'm afraid it won't be kind.
"What are you going to do?"
Jiang Ran smiled slightly, and before he could speak, he heard a voice slowly coming:
"A bloody battle in the world, the sword sect shows its power!
"Blood Knife Hall is doing business, please leave as soon as possible to avoid making mistakes!"
"A bloody battle in the world, the Sword Sect shows its power!"
"A bloody battle in the world, the Sword Sect shows its power!"
The Blood Knife Hall disciples surrounding Jiang Ran and others immediately spoke in response.
Jiang Ran curled his lips:
"You are so old, why haven't you passed the second year of secondary school?
"Are they really not embarrassed?"
"What is Secondary School?"
Tang Huayi gave full play to the advantage of asking questions when you don’t understand.
"It's just...well, forget it, it's not important."
Jiang Ran waved his hand, not bothering to explain to her.
But at this moment, several figures appeared suddenly like a few traces of blood in the sky.
The leader was a man in his thirties, with one hand behind his back and a solemn look on his face.
Behind him, followed a man and a woman.
The expression is exactly the same.
Seeing these three people, the Blood Knife Hall disciples who had appeared earlier knelt down on one knee:
"See the Deputy Hall Master!!"
Ruan Yuqing whispered in Jiang Ran's ear:
"Deputy Hall Master Chen Zixuan is a disciple of Xuanyuan Yida.
"It is said that this person has mastered the essence of Xuanyuan Yidao's swordsmanship, and he has a tendency to become better than his master."
Jiang Ran nodded, indicating that he understood.
At this time, the woman behind Chen Zixuan suddenly looked at Gu Xizhi and Jingtan layman, and frowned slightly:
"The Blood Knife Hall is doing something, why don't you get out of the way with all the people waiting?
"Can't you wait to die?"
Gu Xizhi glanced at him and shook his head:
"Today's young people have no respect for the elderly and care for the young."
"You have to deserve it too."
Jingtan layman curled his lips.
Gu Xizhi rolled his eyes:
"You're worthy, you're worthy, you're worthy, I'll find you a pig to match!"
"Vulgar! Dirty! Distasteful!"
Jingtan layman was very angry.
"you!"
The woman immediately became angry when she saw this.
I wanted to say something, but was stopped by Chen Zixuan:
"Don't pay any attention to it, business is more important."
He looked around, and finally his eyes fell on Jiang Ran, smiling slightly:
"Little brother, are you Jiang Ran?"
Jiang Ran nodded:
"Exactly."
"That's good."
Chen Zixuan smiled: "You don't need to be afraid. We are here tonight not to fight, but to borrow something from you. If you are willing, we can turn around and leave. From then on, Blood Sword Hall will recognize you as a friend.
If you need anything, you just need to say hello, and I will go through fire and water without hesitation."
"What if I don't want to?"
Jiang Ran smiled: "Are you just going to swarm us? Take it away by force?"
Chen Zixuan pondered for a moment, sighed and said:
"Since the Blood Sword Hall became one of the First Sect, Two Guilds, Five Swords, Seven Sects and Thirteen Gangs seven years ago, very few people in this world have said no to my Blood Sword Hall.
"Do you know why this is?"
"Appreciate further details."
Jiang Ran smiled.
"Because the dead cannot speak."
Chen Zixuan said calmly: "I advise you to hand over the Jiaowei Qin. This thing is precious and you are not worthy of it. If you continue to be greedy, it will definitely cost you your life."
"Jiaoweiqin?"
"Tea and piano appreciation party?"
After Chen Zixuan finished speaking, the one who had the biggest reaction was not Jiang Ran, but Gu Xizhi and Jingtan Jushi.
The two people looked at each other and broke into the crowd in a flash.
He came directly opposite Jiang Ran and lined up side by side with Chen Zixuan.
Just listen to Gu Xizhi say:
"The Jiaowei Qin turns out to be on your body."
"Little brother, can I discuss something with you?"
Jingtan layman said:
"You can make whatever conditions you want. All I need is that you lend me this Jiaowei for a few days, and you'll return it when you're done with it!"
