Chase Lu wiped the sweat from his forehead, turned around and walked to the stone table, picked up the jar of sake placed on it, and was shocked to find that the jar had been cut in half by the escaped sword energy.
"It seems that my grasp of internal energy is not perfect, the sword energy has escaped to such an extent, haha!" Lu Chen picked up the remaining half a jar of sake, shook his head and smiled bitterly, and was about to drink, but was suddenly interrupted by a burst of laughter.
Laughter interrupted.
"Haha, the drink tastes so good. I'm almost craving for it. Little brother, you're welcome and safe!"
Lu Chen looked up and saw a sloppy man sitting on the eaves above the courtyard with a sharp sword on his back, staring at the half-jar of wine in his hand with playful eyes.
"It's you!" Lu Chen said in surprise.
He knew the sloppy man above. He was a drunkard who sang poems in a high-rise building during the day and was full of chivalry and justice. Unexpectedly, he came to his courtyard in the middle of the night.
The sloppy man grinned and said, "It's me. What's wrong? Are you surprised?"
"That's a bit. Why, do you want to come down and have some drinks? You have friends coming from afar, how can you not entertain them well?" Lu Chen smiled lightly.
The sloppy man laughed loudly and said: "Haha, you kid has a taste for me!" After saying that, he jumped down and sat down opposite Lu Chen's stone table.
Lu Chen sat down, poured the wine, and said with a smile: "My friend, I'm really sorry, my humble home is simple and there is nothing to entertain, and I made you laugh!"
The sloppy man didn't care at all: "Little brother, why are you so particular about me? You have already brought out the drinks, how can I let you down?" After that, he took out a few things from his arms, and all
Wrapped in oil paper, they were placed on the stone table.
When I opened it, I saw that it was some cooked beef, roast chicken, fried peanuts and similar snacks.
Lu Chen was stunned for a while. This sloppy man also knew how to enjoy it and took these things with him wherever he went.
"Haha, little brother, come on, eat it while it's hot. I got this specially from the imperial concubine building. It tastes pretty good!" The sloppy man picked up a piece of cooked beef, put it in his mouth, and chewed it, looking very impressive.
Rough blank.
Lu Chen couldn't help but laugh and cry after watching it. He remembered the Imperial Concubine Building in Wushuang City. It was a large restaurant that catered to celebrities and wealthy families, and the famous gold-selling cave. The dishes inside were extremely expensive, and the precautions were even stricter. There was no guarantee that
With his status and place, not everyone can go in and enjoy it. I didn't expect this sloppy man to sneak in there and get so many dishes. It's really not easy.
"May I ask your surname?" Lu Chen said politely.
The slovenly man held the wine glass with greasy hands and said carelessly: "My surname is Dugu, my single name is Xia!"
"Dugu Xia, he lives up to his name, he is brave and righteous, and his righteousness is as great as the sky!" Lu Chen praised warmly.
Dugu Xia said disdainfully: "Shit, all the chivalrous and courageous and righteous things are just a waste of fame. All I want in this life is to be happy and free!"
Lu Chen was surprised and said: "Why do you say this? I have seen with my own eyes your heroic deeds of slaying demons and defending the river, and doing chivalry and justice on the river!"
Duguxia responded with a joking face: "Oh, do I have such a warm heart? Oh my, it turns out that I am so great in the eyes of you vulgar people, even I almost worship myself, haha."
"Of course, your Excellency acted righteously today, but it was witnessed by the people of Wushuang City. How can it be false? A hundred years from now, Your Excellency will definitely be remembered in history." Lu Chen raised his hand to Dugu Xia to express his admiration.
Duguxia waved his hands quickly and laughed nonchalantly: "No, no, you praise me too much. I'm not as great as you think. It was just for my own selfishness!"
"For your own selfish reasons, how could you have such thoughts?" Lu Chen looked a little surprised.
Duguxia burped several times in a row, and said with a very vulgar expression: "Hey, little brother, didn't you notice that the beautiful young woman who fell into the water is very handsome? She looks like a peach, she is very mouth-watering.
! The last thing I wanted to do was see Xiangxiaoyu’s death, so I came to the rescue. Otherwise, I would be too full to do such noisy things.”
There were a few beads of sweat on Lu Chen's forehead, and his expression looked a little stiff. He didn't know how to respond to his words. He thought he was a knight of the generation, but he didn't expect that he turned out to be such a mean and mean-spirited man.
He said in embarrassment: "I am being rude. Your Excellency is such a romantic person, and you really speak quickly!"
"Okay, little brother, don't be too flattering. We are of the same generation, so don't be so particular about everything. By the way, I don't know your name yet!" Duguxia behaved boldly and was not formal at all.
When Lu Chen saw the other party asking for his name, he pondered for a moment and then said: "I'm Lu Chen!"
"Well, Lu Chen is a good name, I like it!" Duguxia nodded, smelling of alcohol.
Lu Chen glanced at the sword behind the opponent's back, and then said: "I dare to ask what sect Brother Dugu comes from. I saw you saving people in the river during the day. As soon as you made a move, your sword energy was everywhere. It was extremely sharp and powerful. I ordered you to open it wide.
Vision!”
"Brother, I'm just a savage. No sect dares to take me into the mountain!" Duguxia saw that half of the jar of wine on the table was almost finished, so he took out a wine gourd from his waist and refilled their glasses.
When Lu Chen heard this, he was immediately surprised and said: "Brother Dugu didn't lie to me, but where did you learn this superb swordsmanship? It really puzzles Lu!"
"You want to learn? I can teach you, but first, you have to treat me to some delicious old wine, how about it!" Duguxia bared his teeth and smiled, with a sinister look on his face, making him look very wretched.
Lu Chen shook his head and laughed: "No, the elder brother is serious. The younger brother has no such thoughts, he is just curious!" He was born as a descendant of the Lu family, possesses two peerless swordsmanship, and has the assistance of the Coiling Dragon Divine Sword, so what else is needed?
Learning martial arts skills from others and passing them on would be ridiculous.
Seeing that Lu Chen was not interested, Duguxia showed a bit of disappointment in his eyes: "Oh, that's it, it doesn't matter if I tell you. In fact, I was born in a martial arts family since I was a child, and I developed solid basic skills. Later, the family declined.
, I have been traveling around. This skill was learned step by step from killing after many years of wandering in the world. In today's world, in terms of the sophistication of swordsmanship, my swordsmanship is enough to rank in the top ten!
"After saying this, the whole person burst out with great pride, and his eyes revealed a confident demeanor.
"You're so awesome, brother, I respect you!" Lu Chen's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help feeling a little fond of this person.
Dugu Xia took a few sips from the wine gourd and asked casually: "I think your martial arts skills are extraordinary, but I don't know what sect my little brother is from!"
Lu Chen hesitated for a while and then said: "Like you, I am also a wanderer. It happened that Liuyun Sword Sect recently recruited disciples, so I was ready to try my luck!"
"Liuyun Sword Sect? There are many rules in that place, and the assessment is very strict. It is one of the eight major sects in the world and is famous far and wide. It is not bad to rely on such a force. But it is a pity that it is not suitable for people like me." Duguxia was stunned for a moment.
He smiled self-deprecatingly.
Lu Chen said with a smile: "Everyone has their own path to take, I just chose the one that suits me!"
"Yes, everyone has his own ambitions, and everything has its destiny. Little brother, I have made a note of today's drink and will invite you to drink flower wine another day. I heard that the little girls in Qianjiao Pavilion are all beautiful and beautiful.
Better than a fairy!" Duguxia gave Lu Chen a wink, a look that every man would understand.
Lu Chen smiled bitterly and waved his hands quickly: "There's no need to drink flower wine. Brother Dugu, I don't have this hobby!"
"Hey, you are just like the elite disciples of those big sects. You are just chasing fame and fame. It's boring. It's really boring. It's getting late. Let's meet another day!" Duguxia tapped Lu Chen with his hand and said sarcastically, and then he said it.
, then flew over the ridge of the roof and disappeared from Lu Chen's sight.
It came suddenly and left in a hurry.
Lu Chen was a little speechless. There are such people in the world, who are cynical and eclectic. They just want a happy life. Speaking of which, he really envies such a life.
On the second day, the sky turned white, and the whole Wushuang City was dimly lit.
Lu Chen was naked to the waist in the courtyard, sitting cross-legged on a stone slab, practicing the art of breathing in and out.
His face looks very delicate, but the muscles all over his body are extremely strong. Eight ferocious scars are eye-catching covering all parts of his body, including shoulders, chest, back, and arms. The whole person looks extremely tough.
Among these scars, there are sword wounds, knife wounds, and scratches left by wild beasts. Behind every scar on his body is a bloody story. It is also the story of his transformation from an unlearned and ignorant dandy in the past three years.
Witness of a cocoon turning into a butterfly.
His breathing is very rhythmic. He takes a deep breath first, and his lung sacs expand rapidly to fully absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth contained in it. Then he circulates throughout his body through the eight extraordinary meridians, nourishing his flesh, blood, muscles and bones with extremely small amounts of energy, and spits it out again.
At this time, the two lung lobes squeeze each other, creating a weak pressure, and the impurities deposited in the lung sacs will turn into a puff of gray turbid air and be exhaled.
This is the untold secret of Tianji Sect, the ‘Golden Toad Breathing Technique’ that can only be learned by its disciples.
After practicing for four hours, Lu Chen's closed eyes finally opened. His clear eyes were full of energy, as bright as stars.
He looked at the gray sweat on his skin and frowned secretly, so he directly picked up a bucket of water from the side, poured it over his head, and washed himself. He turned around and walked into the house, changing into a blue outfit.
A man relies on his clothes and a horse relies on his saddle. This saying is indeed true.
Lu Chen himself comes from a noble family. Although his appearance is not that of a jade tree, his facial features are pretty and gentle. He is in good condition in all aspects. In addition, he has a calm demeanor cultivated by diving in the mountains. After changing his clothes, his overall heroic appearance
The temperament becomes more prominent and eye-catching.
Like a pearl that has been washed away from dust, the whole body is blooming with the light of charm.
