Mountain opening ceremony is a tradition in Western Chu. Basically, the forces close to Shiwandashan will do this before opening mountains and cutting down forests. In fact, it is just a ceremony. Please have peace of mind. In fact, if you want insurance, you might as well get more
For incense money, go to the Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain to ask for a talisman formation, or go to the Daguangming Temple to ask for a string of magical objects blessed by the Buddha's light, a senior Buddhist monk.
However, this is just a ceremony for those small forces, but for the Gaoling Dong family, one of the nine great families, the scale of the mountain opening ceremony is not ordinary, and the intervals are also very long.
It has been more than ten years since the last time the Dong family held a mountain opening ceremony. The strength of the Dong family has not changed much during this time, so the Dong family is also preparing to open mountains and clear forests again to take a gamble.
The Dong family, one of the nine aristocratic families, wants to open up mountains and clear forests. The scale is not ordinary and cannot be compared with those small forces. Moreover, the Dong family will also invite some warriors they have good relations with to participate and jointly explore the 100,000.
A certain area in the mountains.
This behavior is similar to gambling. No one knows what is in those deep mountains and forests.
If you are lucky, you will find some minerals, which can bring some benefits to the family, or you may find some rare elixirs, which can also enhance the strength of the family. The best thing is to discover ancient ruins, then
The family's power will surely skyrocket.
But this is only when you are lucky. When you are not lucky, you may encounter something else.
When encountering evil beasts and the like, it's easy to say that for existences of the Dong family's level in Gaoling, they can deal with most of the evil beasts. Even if they can't deal with them, they can just go find reinforcements at the worst.
This is not the ancient times, when ferocious beasts were everywhere eating people. Today's ferocious beasts are simply a moving treasure house for warriors, with treasures all over their bodies.
The really tricky stuff is the stuff you don't expect at all.
For example, the Gaoling Dong family once accidentally entered a huge ancient killing array, causing the killing array to activate and strangled the lives of half of the Gaoling Dong family of that generation. Even the martial arts master could not escape.
Also, the Gaoling Dong family once brought an evil thing out of Shiwanda Mountain. No one knew what it was. Anyway, in the end, the Gaoling Dong family spent hundreds of lives to get rid of it.
Therefore, things like clearing mountains and cutting down forests are actually gambling. Although it is said that you rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, the things in the mountains are not good.
The strength of this generation of the Gaoling Dong family is pretty good among the nine major families. Although it is not ranked at the top, it can still be ranked in the middle. That's why the other party decided to open up mountains and clear forests and take a gamble.
Having found something good, their family has become stronger. Even if they encounter any trouble, they can still afford it with their current strength of the Gaoling Dong family.
However, according to what Chu Xiu knew, this time the Gaoling Dong family did find something good, but it also found big trouble. Moreover, the good thing also belonged to Lu Fengxian, not the Gaoling Dong family.
Moreover, it is useless even if the Dong family of Gaoling gets the inheritance from Marquis Lu Wen. The martial arts of the Dong family of Gaoling are completely different from the martial arts of Marquis Lu Wen. Whether it is the Demon God's Unparalleled Halberd or the Nine-Sky Demon Refining Golden Body, they cannot practice it unless the entire Dong family
Give up your own martial arts and practice another's.
Chu Xiu was not interested in the Demon God's Wushuang Halberd. He had practiced sword skills for too long. It would be awkward to modify other weapons, and the effort he put in would not be proportional to the rewards.
However, Jiuxiao Demonic Golden Body Chu Xiu was very interested. The original evaluation of this technique was at level nine or even above.
Because there is only one cultivator of it, Lu Fengxian, and some details are not clear, the evaluation of the techniques is based on the lowest. Even this one has as many as nine turns, and the highest possibility is even the supreme technique and the peerless magical technique.
During the battle with Zong Xuan, Chu Xiu also felt that although his power was strong, he was not the strongest being at the same level.
In the past, Chu Xiu used his strength to crush others, but when faced with Zong Xuan, a warrior who specializes in physical strength to the extreme, Chu Xiu was easily crushed by his opponent.
Although Chu Xiu has no intention of following the same path as Zong Xuan, for the current Chu Xiu, it is perfect to develop his whole body without any shortcomings or loopholes.
After deciding to go to Xichu, Fang Qishao also wanted to go, and Chu Xiu didn't stop him.
The Dong family in Gaoling, one of the nine great families, was going to hold a mountain opening ceremony. The Dong family invited them, and there were countless people coming to watch the fun, including Fang Qishao. Chu Xiu planned to win in chaos, and did not prepare to attack by force.
However, just after Chu Xiu and Fang Qishao left Songping Mansion, Chu Xiu discovered that news about him had once again spread in the world, not because he had received the inheritance from Master Tan Yuan, but because Chu Xiu had stepped into the
No. 5 on the Dragon and Tiger List!
Although Master Tan Yuan is a holy monk, he is not famous for his martial arts. Therefore, in the Central Plains, everyone only knows that Master Tan Yuan has great virtues and is a truly good person. They know that Master Tan Yuan has done
What, so no one cares about Master Tan Yuan’s true strength.
But the battle between Chu Xiu and Zong Xuan in the later stage was quite eye-catching. No one expected that Chu Xiu could fight Zong Xuan to a level where they were evenly matched.
Although the battle was interrupted by Master Tan Yuan at the end, everyone was at least certain that Chu Xiu had the strength to fight Zong Xuan, but no one knew how far this battle would go.
.
However, based on Chu Xiu's strength in that battle, Feng Manlou also moved Chu Xiu's ranking up one position, squeezing out Shangshui Ying's Ying Bailu and becoming the No. 1 dragon and tiger ranking.
five.
On the Dragon and Tiger list, the top ten have always been one class, and the top five are another class.
Although a Dragon and Tiger list cannot include all the young heroes in the world, at least it can mean that Chu Xiu has reached the pinnacle of the younger generation in the world.
Of course, there are many people in the world who are complaining about winning Bailu. They think that even if Chu Xiu has entered the realm of unity between man and nature, even if he can fight Zong Xuan for such a long time, he will definitely not be as good as winning Bailu.
Fengmanlou’s ranking is unfair.
Of course, most of the people who do this are women, and they are still young women.
If we were talking about who has the best compatibility with women in the world, it would definitely be Ying Bailu.
He is powerful, has a prominent family background, is handsome, and is good at playing chess, calligraphy, and painting. The most important thing is that he is not romantic in winning the White Deer.
There are rumors in the world that Ying Bailu has fallen in love with Yan Feiyan, the "Fairy Yunjian" of Yue Nu Palace, and his love has not changed for several years.
How could such an excellent and infatuated man not attract women?
It's just that Feng Manlou is one of the Renhe Six Gangs, and the top five on the Dragon and Tiger List are very serious. Of course, they will not listen to a group of women and change the list. They will just act as if they haven't heard anything.
As for Chu Xiu, because he squeezed out Ying Bailu's ranking, he inexplicably provoked a lot of enemies. Shangshui Yingshi didn't say anything, but a lot of women in the world were very hostile to him.
.
At this time, in a study room of Ying's family in Shangshui, Ying Bailu was holding a pen in his hand and sketching a picture of a beauty with his eyes closed.
Not opening his eyes is not because Ying Bailu is showing off his perception, but because the beauty he wants to draw is not in his eyes, but in his heart.
At this time, the door was pushed open, and Fu Bo, Ying's martial arts master-level servant, walked in. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Ying Bailu wave his hand gently. Fu Bo suddenly understood and stood aside.
Waiting quietly.
Ying Bailu sketched the characters in his paintings in a calm and unhurried manner. They were dressed in colorful feathers and dancing with swords, just like fairies above the nine heavens. The person painted by Ying Bailu was clearly Yan Feiyan.
After finishing the painting, Ying Bailu took a look at his painting, but he shook his head in dissatisfaction. He stretched out his hand, and the light golden aura exploded, smashing the painting into powder.
Ordinary paper and pen can never draw the face of a fairy.
"Uncle Fu, has something happened? Or is that guy Bai Hu causing trouble again?" Ying Bailu asked softly.
Uncle Fu quickly said: "It's not about the Second Young Master. Eldest Young Master, have you heard the recent rumors in the world? Chu Xiu received the inheritance of the holy monk Tan Yuan and fought a battle with Zong Xuan of the Daguangming Temple. This also led to
Feng Manlou has moved Chu Xiu up one spot on the Dragon and Tiger Ranking, pushing you to the back."
Ying Bailu nodded calmly and said: "I know."
Uncle Fu was stunned for a moment, then said: "Then, Sir, are you ready..."
Ying Bailu waved his hand casually and said: "There is no preparation. It's just a ranking above the Dragon and Tiger rankings. Why care so much? I'm ranked fifth, I'm Ying Bailu, I'm ranked first, and I'm still winning.
Bai Lu, is it possible that there are still people in the world who will look down on me because I am ranked sixth?
Uncle Fu, you know that I don't care much about these rankings. If I did, I would have challenged Fang Qishao and Zong Xuan long ago.
There is no need to mention these things again. If outsiders say it, let them talk about it."
Uncle Fu nodded. The eldest son's magnanimity is indeed beyond the reach of ordinary people. These things may be a big deal to other younger generations of warriors, but to Winning White Deer, they are not really important matters.
.
Just when Uncle Fu was about to say goodbye and leave, Ying Bailu suddenly said: "Wait a minute, Uncle Fu, there is something you need to tell father. I am going to Xichu."
Uncle Fu was surprised and said: "Elder Master, why are you going to Xichu? And why don't you go and tell the head of the family in person?"
Ying Bailu said calmly: "The Dong family in Gaoling is about to prepare a mountain ceremony, and Miss Yan will go to watch the ceremony on behalf of the Yue Nu Palace. Although the Dong family did not invite me this time, I am also planning to go.
My father doesn't like me getting too close to Miss Yan. You know this. If I tell you, I will inevitably have an argument with my father.
I don’t want to have those meaningless arguments, so it’s up to you to tell your father.”
