Chapter 188: Killing Training, Old Friend's Visit
Chapter 188: Killing Training, Old Friend's Visit
In the middle of winter, it's freezing cold.
There was heavy snow, and the city was covered in silver.
On the Martial Arts Field of the Sanchongyuan, a group of men and women practiced in pairs, their figures were moving, their vitality and True Qi were stirring.
Zhong Yan was sitting in a pavilion in the distance, drinking fine wine and eating spiritual fruits, with Yan Sandao pinching his shoulders and beating his back behind him.
Not long.
Ding Zhan and four guards escorted a man in shackles, Liang Xian, the seventh-floor captive captured by Xiao Baifeng.
"Reporting to my lord, I gave him Mana Beads half a month ago, and he has now returned to its full strength!"
Zhong Yan nodded and took a sip from his wine glass.
After half a stick of incense.
He got up and threw a big knife, Law Weapon, in front of Liang Xian, and took the talisman away from his body.
The guard then untied the handcuffs and shackles.
"Pause."
Zhong Yan called out, glanced at the crowd and said, "When Qingyao entered the mansion, I told her that Zhong's mansion does not raise waste. Some of you have heard me say this before."
"Empty realms have no fighting power. For the flowers in the greenhouse, it is common for the cultivation world to fight and kill. If you encounter danger in the future, you will be rookies and weak chickens like you. You are not even a paper tiger. You will die more than you will live..."
Regarding the ability to survive, Zhong Yan has the right to despise any of them.
Before he came to Qingyang for these years, although he was only at the peak of the third level of Qi Refining, he survived many times in the front line of life and death.
And all the female cultivators in the mansion are too inexperienced, Gu Baiyu is better, and none of them have experienced killing.
Including Yuan Ziyi, a Foundation Building monk who is about to reach the third floor. He has only killed monsters and never had human blood on his hands. No one would dare to believe it.
Although everyone often practiced duels, they lacked the sense of crisis to compete, so they could only be proficient in spells. To deal with real crises, there were not many effective ones.
"It is not allowed to use recovery pills, only five talismans, Ziyue, Youngbai, you come out."
"Yes, my husband!"
The two held their swords together and saluted.
Zhong Yan said to Liang Xian: "I'll give you a chance. One of them has the same level of cultivation as you, and the other has just entered the sixth floor. If you win, you will be let go."
Liang Xian, who had been imprisoned for a long time, looked indifferently, looked at the saber-chopping knife on the ground, and then at Qin Ziyue and Qin Ziyue who had seen the fighting, and said with a sneer: "If I hurt or kill them, how can I leave alive?" !"
"Did you hear? One-on-two, he only has one Law Weapon, and he has no advantage in realm. He already regards you as dead souls under the knife."
Zhong Yan said with a smile, and then said calmly with no expression on his face: "You don't have to joke, life and death don't matter."
Qin Ziyue and Qin Youbai looked at each other, their hearts trembled, and they knew from the expression on their husband's face that it was not a joke, they could say it and do it.
"Alright, instead of being imprisoned in the dark, it's better to kill two chicks to add to the fun, and take a gamble! Hey~"
With a laugh, Liang Xian reached out and rushed straight with the sword.
Qin Ziyue's expression became solemn, and he flicked his long sword to the ground. His vitality and sword light turned into an earth dragon, roaring and charging in the snow, blowing up the snowflakes.
At the same time, she threw the flying sword towards the front left and called out 'Youbai'.
Qin Youbai understood, leaned away from the body, tiptoed on the flying Law Weapon, and flew with his bare hands to control a small dagger to stab the target.
"It's not useful to look good."
Liang Xian said contemptuously, when the earth dragon was coming towards him, he jumped to avoid the small sword, and when his body paused in mid-air, he slashed down five or six feet away.
scoff~
The light of the saber enlarged, forming an illusory flaming giant saber, which instantly reached the top of Qin Ziyue's head.
Qin Ziyue moved his feet sideways, narrowly dodging.
Then there was a 'boom', bang bang, pieces of bluestone slabs exploded and shot in all directions in the flying snow.
Qin Ziyue was shaken by the aftermath of vitality, his skirt and robe fluttered, his black hair danced wildly, and a piece of gravel rubbed off his shoulder was rubbed red and white, his complexion appeared rosy.
Qin Youbai's complexion changed at high altitude, he exclaimed 'Miss', and threw out a 'Burst Talisman' to help.
Unexpectedly, Liang Xian, a bandit cultivator with rich experience, only feigned a shot at Qin Ziyue. When the shot landed, he turned around and made a gesture in an instant, and shot a finger of sword light at Qin Youbai. A protective mask appeared around him to block the energy of the 'Explosive Talisman', and he casually threw a simple fireball at Qin Youbai.
It can be described as flowing clouds and flowing water.
Qin Youbai's figure flickered, the flying sword staggered under his feet, fell to the ground, and was sent high into the sky by Qin Ziyue again.
The two went up and down, flanking back and forth.
Liang Xian moved around with the round mask, and he gained the upper hand with just one encounter, coped with it easily, and counterattacked from time to time.
A group of people around watched nervously, as if they were there.
Wen Hongxiu frowned slightly: "His cultivation base should be a line higher than Ziyue's sister, so he can't force his vitality."
Tang Xiaoshu: "Sister Youbai has to control the flying sword by herself, so it's difficult to move smoothly, and sister Ziyue is distracted, so this move is a bit inappropriate."
Ding Zhan shook his head and said: "Ms. Bai is one level lower than Liang Xian. She is only safe at high altitude. Otherwise, if the opponent seizes the opportunity, she may be killed in one move. Although this kind of response is not good, it is relatively safe."
Ye Weiwei pondered and said: "I think the two sisters can switch from offense to defense. There are still nine talismans, but all of them can be used as defensive talismans. The man has to activate the body shield and attack violently. It will consume more time." Vitality is invincible."
...
In the pavilion.
Zhong Yan saw that Qin Ziyue moved back to a round with Qifeng's "Shuiyuejianyu" Divine Ability, although he was still at a disadvantage, but gradually stabilized his situation, he nodded secretly.
Suddenly Gu Baiyu's summons came from the storage, his heart moved, he got up and flew into the sky with his sword, and the sound transmission entered Yan Sandao's ear: "Don't kill him."
Yan Sandao nodded with a smile, looking at the three fighting, his beautiful eyes were bright, and he was eager to try.
The side hall of the outer courtyard.
Zhong Yan landed, striding forward, clapping his hands and shouting with a smile, "Senior Brother Ma!"
The visitor was Ma Zhida, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, and after returning to the sect, there was no news.
"Senior brother is here, Yan You is far away to welcome, sin, sin!"
"Haha~ Senior Brother Zhong, I haven't seen you for a few years, Junior Brother's demeanor is even better than before!"
"It's not as radiant as senior brother."
The two laughed warmly with their hands, and their eyes couldn't help but flash.
Ma Zhida was suspicious, and when he entered the city, he learned that the former junior brother in front of him broke into the seventh floor, but he was injured last year, and now he can't see the depth at all.
Zhong Yan's spiritual sense is not what it used to be, but he can see through the opponent's realm at a glance, and said with a smile: "I heard that brother Foundation Building was successful, and his longevity has improved, and he has taken another step towards the great road! Congratulations!"
"Junior Brother Zhong is well informed."
Ma Zhida's brows showed joy, he sighed and said: "Three years of retreat, luckily succeeded, finally these years of penance were not wasted."
"Come on, brother, sit down and drink tea!"
"Brother Ma, please!" Gu Baiyu stepped forward to pour tea, and accompanied him.
"I heard that my junior brother was robbed on his way home from Fangshi last year. How is his injury?"
"There will be no serious problems after resting for a few months. It can be regarded as a blessing in disguise. After recovery, there will be a slight improvement in cultivation."
"So, congratulations, junior!"
"..."
After chatting with each other about the past, Zhong Yan took the initiative to ask: "Brother, this time he went down the mountain, is he going to come back to guard Yangquanfang City?"
Ma Zhida said with a smile: "Stop by to see you, I have accepted the order to serve as the retinue mage of the Keqing Mansion in Baiyan City."
"oh?"
Zhong Yan was slightly startled, and said with a smile, "This is a good thing! When did Baiyan City establish the Keqing Mansion?"
Ma Zhida nodded and said: "Si Tianjian and I went to the Qi Refining Ninth Floor to form it. Now Qingyang, Wangyi, and Heishui cities have ready-made Keqing Mansions, and the position of mage has long been occupied.
However, the capital city has decided to fully implement the Keqing government system, and I also used a lot of connections to find this place. "
Zhong Yan picked up his cup and took a sip of tea, thinking to himself.
Ma Zhida glanced over and said, "Junior brother, if you are interested in going to Baiyan City with me to develop, I can make the decision to grant you the post of mage."
Zhong Yan complained in his heart, it is really corrupt.
It was the same with Qingyang last year. It turned out that the capital's decree was for Si Tianjian to select two retinue mages, and to elect one in the Independent Cultivator group.
As a result, 'Wing Tailai' directly dismissed Bai Siyuan and Tao Ran, did not run for office, and then arranged for a 'person of his own'.
"Thank you for your kindness, brother. I've been used to staying in Qingyang for a long time, and there are many concubines in the mansion waiting to give birth. It's not convenient for the big family..."
Ma Zhida smiled, and said without forcing, "I have some friendship with Wen Tailai. Before coming to you, I went to Liankeqing's Mansion. If you encounter trouble, you may ask him to mediate."
"Thank you, Senior Brother Ma."
Ma Zhida then asked again: "By the way, I heard that brother Huo Donglai has settled down in Jingcheng. Is there any contact between brother Huo Donglai and him?"
Zhong Yan's heart moved, this is the real purpose of this trip, "Huo Fellow Daoist wrote to me and told me."
Ma Zhida changed to sound transmission: "Brother, can you tell me the contact information? I would like to ask Brother Huo to pass on the message to Master Shi Feng. Don't worry, Brother Huo, this matter will definitely not have any impact on Brother Huo."
Zhong Yan looked at him and pondered a little, said: "Brother Ma, please forgive me, let me ask Huo Fellow Daoist first."
"Okay, I'll trouble my junior brother to ask his opinion, whether it's successful or not, it will help me a lot!"
As he said that, Ma Zhida took out two high-level talismans and cast a spell to imprint them, "If you have any news, just send me a message..."
After a feast for the host and guests, Zhong Yan personally sent Ma Zhida out of the mansion.
Gu Baiyu stepped forward and took her husband's hand, and asked, "Husband, what is he looking for with Uncle Huo?"
"It should be because I want to rely on Wufeng. Although the strength of the Ma family is good, it is much inferior to the peaks of Fire Cloud Sect. It is difficult to get into the eyes. After eradicating the Xue family back then, he knew that I have a close relationship with Donglai. If I come forward, Donglai will save face."
Earlier, Ma Zhida and Huo Donglai were in the inner sect, so they knew each other, so how could they not be able to find out or get in touch?
It's just that the friendship is not deep, and it is not safe enough to rush into the relationship.
"This is the favor of Shun Shui, and I have my own opinion when I turn it around."
As he said that, Zhong Yan frowned and whispered: "It's a full implementation of the Keqing government system..."
"master!"
Zhong Xiaoshun came running and handed over a note.
Take a look: The imperial decree has been reached, and the new city owner is on the way. We will meet and discuss in detail.
Zhong Yan looked solemn: "It's faster than expected! Xiaozhong, send a message to Shangwen and ask him to come back."
"yes!"
that day.
The city lord's mansion posted notices throughout the city, recruiting mages to follow the army, with an annual salary of 30, and rewards for meritorious deeds.
We all know that Qin Ben sold the share of the Colosseum, and he has money in his hands. On the battlefield of Wei State, Yan State is the dominant side for the invasion, and many monks signed up one after another.
the next day.
Two squires in Ke Qing's mansion who hadn't seen each other for more than a year came to Zhong's mansion just because Ma Zhida had been there.
Let all the girls of the Zhong Mansion know what it means to be "following the crowd", and at the same time feel the importance of "personal connections".
But Wen Tailai left the gate of Zhongfu, walked tens of meters, and couldn't help looking back: "This kind of Zhongyan is weird, and I can't tell its depth."
The other was Xia Wenxuan, a child of the royal family of the Yan Kingdom, and said casually, "Cover it up with secret treasures."
Wen Tailai said suspiciously: "It's not like, it's supposed to be some kind of method to conceal the aura, but it's so profound that it can hide your cultivation across a great realm."
