To the west of Cangzhou, there is a majestic mortal city. This city is built between two narrow stone mountains and has only two city gates facing east and west.
The city wall is completely made of huge piles of rocks and is more than ten feet high. With such a high city wall, the violent wind and sand outside the city at night will be blocked from the outside. This is a very famous folk custom in Cangzhou.
Canglan City.
The interior and exterior of Canglan City are completely different. Outside there is no grass, sparsely populated, and somewhat windy and sandy. There are only some caravans walking along the main official roads.
In the city, there are pedestrians everywhere, hawkers shouting business, noisy gambling houses, bustling flower houses during the day, and many inns are also overcrowded.
At this time, in the city, there was a burst of noise coming from the second floor of a splendid inn.
Then there was a loud "crash" sound, and the entire second floor of the inn shook slightly.
"I'm tired of living. You're just a first-class person and you still want to grab a box with me. Your grandpa is in a good mood today and I won't kill you. Get out of here."
The speaker was a fierce man with a sinewy face. He stood at the door of a box with his arms folded. He was wearing a black suit. The muscles that were highlighted all over his body made people feel a strong sense of oppression.
The direction the fierce man was looking at was a middle-aged man. He was covering his right arm with a look of horror on his face. After hearing the fierce man's words, his eyes showed a bit of joy.
He glanced at the twisted long knife beside him, stood up slowly, leaned over and saluted, and said: "I am ignorant of Taishan. I didn't expect to meet a top-notch cross-training master like my senior. I have offended him many times before.
"
"Okay, okay, get out of here while I'm in a good mood."
When the middle-aged man heard this, he looked a little embarrassed. It could be seen that the man in front of him with unfathomable strength was becoming more and more impatient, and he hurriedly turned around and walked downstairs.
The man with a sinister face took another look at the frightened diners around him, laughed loudly, returned to the box, and closed the door.
After a while, the diners on the second floor began to whisper.
"What kind of horizontal kung fu does this man practice? He just blocked the steel knife of Kuang Sha Dao Xue Zhangke with just his palm, and he twisted the steel knife into a twist with one hand. His strength is really terrifying."
"I think this man's strength has reached the peak of a super-class master. I think Xue Zhangke has also noticed it, otherwise with the strength of his brothers, he would never say such kind words."
"Why do I feel that this person's domineering Kung Fu training is somewhat similar to the rumored Canglan Sect."
"How is it possible? It is said that the Canglan Sect offended a certain immortal. The entire sect, including hundreds of first-class masters, were all killed without any bones left. There are no surviving descendants at all."
"This brother, I have limited knowledge. I wonder if you can introduce me to the Canglan Sect. I'll treat you to this meal."
"Easy to say, easy to say!"
…
There were three people sitting in the box. In addition to the man with a sinister face, there was also a resolute-looking young man and a tiger-headed child. The child was frantically dealing with the fat chicken in front of the table, as if he hadn't eaten this for a long time.
It's delicious.
The young man smiled slightly and said: "Master, people outside say that you are a super master, and they also say that you are somewhat similar to the Canglan sect. It seems that we have completely blended into the secular world."
These people are Lu Kun and Huang Xiaoyun, who spent nearly a year coming to Cangzhou from Qingzhou. As for the child with a tiger head and a tiger head, about eight or nine years old, he is Pan Yan, the last son of Pan Shu.
Lu Kun, who had changed his face, heard Huang Xiaoyun's words and said with a smile: "Your master was already a first-class master in the secular world before he became an immortal. Now, with his physical body alone, he is much more powerful than a first-class master."
"The Canglan sect should be a martial arts sect, and they can practice kung fu at the same level as me. Hey, wait a minute."
As Lu Kun was talking, he suddenly thought of something and said quickly: "Xiaoyun, use your spiritual sense to investigate again and see what people outside say about the Canglan Sect."
Over the past year, Lu Kun's spiritual consciousness has been hidden in the depths of the sea of consciousness, and he has not dared to release it. Therefore, over the past year, they have mingled among mortals and are inconspicuous. Except for Pan Shu before, they have never encountered him.
Immortal cultivator.
When Huang Xiaoyun heard this, his consciousness stirred, he looked outside and said, "Master, they happened to be chatting about the Canglan Sect."
Next, Huang Xiaoyun recounted the chatter of outsiders.
It turns out that nearly a hundred years ago, there was no Canglan City in this place, only this valley.
Some worldly martial arts masters will venture to the outskirts of the Land of Death to pick some precious herbs.
Although this valley is not closed, it can withstand the wind and sand at night, so everyone spends the night in this valley.
It was also during that period that a martial arts sect suddenly appeared called the Canglan Sect.
This sect is full of masters who practice horizontal kung fu. It is said that there are more than a hundred first-class masters and a dozen super first-class masters who came out of nowhere. All of them came to this valley.
At first, the nearby martial arts people thought that the Canglan Sect had gone to the Land of Death to collect precious herbs. After all, there were still some corpse monsters outside the Land of Death that were irresistible to mortals, and a large number of warriors were needed to contend.
But who would have known that these people started building city walls after they arrived in the valley. The ten-foot-long east and west walls outside were all made of huge stones excavated from the valley by these horizontal warriors.
Only these extremely powerful warriors were able to accomplish this feat, which would have required at least a thousand people to do it for ordinary people.
This place is exposed to wind and sun, and it is difficult to transport a large amount of food. It is impossible for thousands of people to complete the construction.
After the people of the Canglan Sect built the two walls, this place was called Canglan City. Many warriors who ventured to the Land of Death would also rest here.
Gradually, many businessmen came here, and Canglan City slowly developed.
The Canglan Sect has unquestionably become the master here. In Canglan City, they want the wind and the rain, and even top-notch experts dare not offend them.
Later, I don't know if the Canglan sect acted arrogantly, but all the disciples in the sect were wiped out overnight, and even the corpses disappeared.
Many people speculated that the Canglan sect accidentally offended a powerful immortal master and was wiped out.
"What follows is a battle between several sects for control of Canglan City."
"Master, Master?" After Huang Xiaoyun finished speaking, he saw Lu Kun opposite him in a daze and his face turned pale, so he couldn't help asking.
Lu Kun murmured: "Those people say that I am similar to the Henglian Kung Fu spread by the Canglan Sect? Do these people all practice the Diamond Art?"
Pan Yan was eating fat chicken on the side and listening to Huang Xiaoyun telling the story of Canglan City with great interest. Now he heard Lu Kun mention "Vajra Secret".
The naughty boy immediately became interested and said, "Master, are you saying that this Canglan sect is very likely to practice our Vajra Art?"
Huang Xiaoyun was not surprised by the name naughty kid, and looked at Lu Kun with a questioning expression.
Lu Kun shook his head and said with some uncertainty: "It should not be the Vajra Jue. It was already very difficult for the descendants of the Ling family to run from Luzhou Prefecture to Lingyue City. It is absolutely impossible to travel across mountains and rivers to reach this place in Cangzhou."
"The Canglan sect probably practices another powerful Henglian martial arts."
