"I have been comprehending the wind of all things for half a year, and I have been stuck at a certain key point without knowing the key. Today, I have finally gained a lot of experience and realized it!"
"This feeling is so wonderful! I'm immersed in it and can't extricate myself!"
"Now that the injury has recovered, my strength has improved by leaps and bounds. It's time to set off!"
"Next stop, Broken Sword City!"
Lu Chen came to the lake and slowly put on his clothes. A ray of morning sun slowly rose from the eastern sky and cast its sparkling light on the lake.
The earth has turned a new page.
"Today is a nice day, haha, just like my mood now!"
Lu Chen turned around and left the mountain forest, walked down the mountain road, carried his sword behind his back, and walked slowly towards the west along a winding road.
Broken Sword City is located at the junction of Jizhou and Jingzhou, lying on a cliff in the Taihang Mountains. From a distance, it looks like a huge fortress crawling on the top of the mountain, extremely majestic and majestic.
There are only five to six hundred miles away from Lantian County. Lu Chen didn't ride a horse and slept in the open air all the way. After four days' journey, he finally arrived at Broken Sword City.
Broken Sword City has a history of more than two thousand years since its establishment. It has gone through countless changes in dynasties and has witnessed the vicissitudes of Kyushu for thousands of years.
It has a long history and can be said to be a very famous city in Kyushu with a wide influence.
In terms of area, it is said to be as big as ten Wushuang cities, with a permanent population of more than six million, making it world-famous.
In terms of prosperity, even the royal capitals in the feudal era that stabilized the country were not one-third as prosperous as it.
According to rumors, this city was the site of the imperial capital selected by the last emperor. However, the imperial power collapsed and the world fell into pieces, and then nothing happened.
This shows how far-reaching the influence of Broken Sword City is on the land of Kyushu.
Lu Chen came to the foot of the mountain in a hurry and looked up at the majestic city on the mountain. He couldn't help but feel a sense of awe and wonder in his heart.
"Excellent craftsmanship, a historical giant!"
"It is indeed the most famous city in Kyushu, and it truly deserves its reputation!"
Standing at the foot of this city, Lu Chen felt that he was smaller than an ant.
In his sight, a wide mountain road winds down from the top of the mountain. The ground is paved with huge rocks weighing ten thousand kilograms. From the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain, eight tall horses can ride side by side.
People were coming and going on the mountain road, it was bustling, there was an endless stream, it was very noisy.
It is unimaginable how much financial and material resources were spent on building this city.
When Lu Chen walked on it, every step seemed to be stepping on the wheels of history, filled with an indescribable sense of weight.
After touring the scenery along the way, Lu Chen finally arrived at the gate of Broken Sword City after spending a while.
When he looked at it for the first time, he found that the city gate was entirely made of white marble, which looked very majestic!
In front of the gate stood a group of fully armed silver-armored guards. There were roughly twenty of them at a rough estimate. Each of them had a very fierce aura. A faint bloody smell emanated from the blade of the gun. It was not difficult to guess that these soldiers
They should all be acquired peak powerhouses who have emerged from the baptism of blood and fire.
The soldiers guarding the city gate alone have reached the peak of acquired skills. It is not difficult to imagine how powerful the forces controlling this city behind the scenes are.
Lu Chen dressed up as an ordinary person and followed the crowd into the city.
The first thing you see is an extremely bustling street, with countless high-rise buildings connected in two rows on both sides, leading to the end of the field of vision.
In the streets, countless pedestrians are constantly passing by, and the sounds of hawking are rising and falling. The bustling popularity reflects the magnificent history of the ancient city.
Lu Chen walked silently among the pedestrians and walked into a restaurant called 'Bijiang Garden'. Then he went to the window seat on the second floor and ordered a few exquisite side dishes, tasting them slowly while admiring the Broken Sword City.
scenery.
He lowered his head to eat the food and wine, but was thinking secretly in his heart: "Among Wu Qu's secret letters, there is one sent to Broken Sword City, and the recipient is named 'Scholar'. Someone who can be called by such a name, I think
He must be a very talented person!"
"But Broken Sword City is so big. Finding such a person is really like finding a needle in a haystack. It's not as easy as imagined!"
"It seems that we need to think about it in the long term!"
At this moment, a man suddenly appeared next to him and sat down directly in front of him.
Then a clear voice sounded: "Brother Lu, I haven't seen you for a year, how are you?"
Lu Chen was stunned when he heard the sound. He looked up and his expression suddenly looked astonished: "Why is it you!"
What appeared in front of him was a very handsome young man. He was dressed in a luxurious black robe. On both sides of his shoulders were embroidered a red phoenix with wings spread high. He was holding a beautifully embroidered folding fan in his hand. His long black hair was covered by a
A purple jade hairpin is held high.
His face is like jade, his skin is like gelatin, and his appearance is dignified. Every word and every action he makes exudes an indescribable air of nobility.
"Of course it's me. Why don't you recognize me?" Zhao Zhenxian poured herself a glass of wine and looked at Lu Chen with a faint smile.
Lu Chen looked at the other party in surprise. He never imagined that he would meet an old acquaintance in a place like this!
Yes, this person is the mysterious innate powerhouse who was hidden in the convoy when Lu Chen was escorting Jia Tianpeng's family in Liuyun Sword Sect a year ago.
It's just that Lu Chen didn't expect that the world is so big and he didn't expect to meet the other person here. I have to say that this is a kind of fate.
"I know you. How could I not know you? I'm just a little surprised. I didn't expect to meet you here." Lu Chen said in surprise.
Zhao Zhenxian picked up the wine glass and tasted it briefly, then said with a charming smile: "Of course you are surprised, but to me, this is not surprising at all!"
"How do you say this?" Lu Chen frowned and asked, the other party obviously meant something in his words.
Zhao Zhenxian said with great interest: "You betrayed the master, right?"
When Lu Chen heard this, his expression condensed, and his eyes suddenly became alert: "How do you know!"
"I went to Liuyun Sword Sect. Everyone knows about your betrayal of the sect. Who else can you hide now?" Zhao Zhenxian said in a calm tone.
Lu Chen said in a deep voice: "So what?"
"I'm very curious, why did you judge the Liuyun Sword Sect for no reason?" Zhao Zhenxian opened her thin lips lightly, and her voice was like the sound of mysterious jade, which was extremely beautiful.
Lu Chen said coldly: "What does this have to do with you!"
Zhao Zhenxian said slowly: "It has nothing to do with me, but I heard that you went to Lantian County some time ago. Then someone made a big fuss in Burial Sword City controlled by Wanjian Villa, and not only killed the three owners of the village,
Their illegitimate son Lin Mubai also seriously injured their guest elder Gu Meng!
"
"This person can't be you, right?"
Hearing the other party's last words, Lu Chen's eyes suddenly flashed with a cold light: "What do you mean?"
"Haha, I'm just going to guess, why are you so excited? Could it be that you have a guilty conscience!" Zhao Zhenxian smiled lightly, as if she didn't take Lu Chen seriously, and her eyes were full of amusement.
"Huh!" Lu Chen snorted: "Why do you have a guilty conscience? I don't understand what you are talking about?"
"Just pretend you don't understand. I just want to remind you that Wanjian Villa has sent people to Liuyun Sword Sect. It won't be long before your name is spread all over the world!"
Zhao Zhenxian joked.
Lu Chen drank the wine in the glass and said, "This is none of your business." After saying that, he stood up and left.
Just when he had just taken a few steps, Zhao Zhenxian's voice sounded from behind again: "Brother Lu, you came to Broken Sword City this time, didn't you come here specifically for fun? If necessary, Zhao might
I can help you a little bit."
Hearing these words, Lu Chen's figure suddenly froze. He turned his head and looked at the other party, his eyes full of sharpness: "Are you following me, or are you investigating me?"
"I'm not interested in following you, and I'm not interested in investigating you either!" Zhao Zhenxian played with the wine glass and smiled calmly.
Lu Chen turned around and stared at the other person for a long time, as if he wanted to find his purpose in the other person, and remained silent for a long time.
The origin of the other party is mysterious and his purpose is unknown. However, he knows every move he makes and must have some agenda. Otherwise, the timing of his appearance would be a bit of a coincidence.
"Brother Lu, don't look at me like that. Your gaze makes me very uncomfortable. Besides, I'm not interested in you, and I have no intention of harming you!" Zhao Zhenxian opened the folding fan, shook it, and looked indifferent.
"Why should I trust you?" Lu Chen looked directly at the other person and said.
Zhao Zhenxian smiled nonchalantly and said, "Believe it or not, I am a very honest person!"
"Why do you want to help me?" Lu Chen asked.
Zhao Zhenxian said with a joking smile: "Maybe it's fate to meet an old friend in a foreign country!"
Lu Chen pondered for a while and said coldly: "How can you help me?" From what this person meant, it seemed that this guy must know something. As for the other person's talk about meeting an old friend in a foreign country, Lu Chen was 100% convinced.
Totally unbelievable.
"That depends on what you want to know?" Zhao Zhenxian said.
Lu Chen hesitated for a moment, walked over and sat back down in his original position, and said seriously: "I want to find someone!"
"What kind of person?" Zhao Zhenxian asked.
Lu Chen said: "A person nicknamed Scholar!"
"Scholar?" Upon hearing this word, an inexplicable smile appeared on Zhao Zhenxian's face: "I didn't expect that you came to Broken Sword City just to find him!"
"Do you know this person?" Lu Chen's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard the other person's obviously knowing tone.
"I know, this person is very interesting!" Zhao Zhenxian nodded.
Lu Chen said excitedly: "Where is he?"
"It's right at the Jade Man Pavilion in Broken Sword City. He passes there almost every day. This person is very famous!" Zhao Zhenxian said with a smile.
Lu Chen wondered: "What is he doing there?"
"Be a hero!" Zhao Zhenxian said with a playful smile.
