That year, that cicada, that sword

Chapter 72
After the Demon Town Hall and the Sword Qi Lingkong Hall left, Julu City was finally back on track. Thanks to the east wind of the decisive battle between the two peerless masters, a large number of monks gathered, and the long-awaited Julu City Mutual Market officially started.It is not known how many monks Xiao Mohe, the owner of Julu City, secretly recruited for His Majesty the Emperor, but judging from the joyful expression on the face of the Lingwu County King these days, it should be quite fruitful.

The imperial court is proud, the Daoist sect is naturally frustrated, and the frustrated people have to try to find a balance. Now that the Daoist sect has Zhiyun in their hands, then the matter of Chonglong Temple will naturally not be forgotten. The muddy water will continue to be muddy, but these have nothing to do with Xu Beiyou.

Xu Beiyou's master and apprentice are currently aiming at the Liao Palace, to meet His Highness the Liao Prince together. If there is no accident, Xu Beiyou will follow his master to go to the back building, and then go to meet the famous Wanyan Beiyue.

For Xu Beiyou, the past few months have been eccentric. Big figures lined up to appear one after another, allowing Xu Beiyou, who was once too small to be small, to see the upper-level scenery of this world.

After walking for about a month, the master and apprentice finally set foot in the Northeast. At this time, the weather has gradually turned cold, and the coolness of the Northeast's late autumn is almost piercing. The word "cold" is Xu Beiyou's first impression of the Northeast.

Although the northwest is also cold, it is relatively dry, while the coldness in the northeast has a hint of humidity, which penetrates silently and reaches the inside. The two are very different.

Before setting foot in Liaozhou, Gongsun Zhongmou once again let Xu Beiyou go alone, and this time, Xu Beiyou met a completely different opponent.

If Duanmuyu represents the noble son of an aristocratic family, then this opponent is a grassroots figure from the bottom of the market like Xu Beiyou. Not to mention directly using the knife, Xu Beiyou was seriously injured by his knife in almost a face-to-face encounter.

The first confrontation between the two took place in a dense forest. At that time, this person was hiding under layers of leaves on the ground. Even Xu Beiyou did not perceive the slightest trace of him. When Xu Beiyou approached, this person's figure exploded. , slashed towards Xu Beiyou's head, if he was hit, he would be decapitated with a single blow.

At the critical moment, Xu Beiyou lowered his head and lowered his body. Tianlan, who was on his back, was pulled out of the sheath by Qi, and he barely blocked the knife, but the sharp knife Qi brought up by the knife still left a bloodstain on his neck.

Immediately afterwards, the two started a head-to-head fight. Xu Beiyou's swordsmanship was taught by Gongsun Zhongmou. It is an orthodox Taoism, and every move and style is in line with the word "principle". He was honed in the fighting, fierce and weird, and best at exchanging life for life and injury for injury. If a sect disciple who has just set foot in the rivers and lakes, he will inevitably suffer a big loss in front of this style of play, but Xu Beiyou was different. He also came from the lower class, and he was used to these desperate methods when killing horse thieves on the grassland, so he was able to deal with them with ease.

This man was a decisive person, seeing that he was unable to attack for a long time, he seized an opportunity to instantly back up, disappeared into the dense forest, and disappeared without a trace.

Xu Beiyou didn't pursue him. After watching the figure like a lone wolf disappear into the depths of the dense forest, he drew his sword and retreated from the battlefield.

Xu Beiyou had a wonderful premonition that this unknown swordsman would definitely not let it go, and would definitely come to trouble him again.

From the fight just now, it can be seen that this person has just entered the first-rank realm, which is completely higher than Xu Beiyou's entire realm, but the saber technique is far behind Xu Beiyou's sword 36, so he was beaten to a tie by Xu Beiyou. A sword-testing stone is of great benefit to one's kendo cultivation, of course Xu Beiyou is not willing to let it go easily.

Three days later, the two met for the second time, on an official road near Liaozhou. It was late at night, and there were no pedestrians on the official road. This time, the swordsman did not hide his body, and just appeared in front of Xu Beiyou. , still piercing Xu Beiyou's heart with a knife.

This time Xu Beiyou was on guard, and did not hesitate to use a sword thirteen that had just taken shape. Obviously, the swordsman did not expect Xu Beiyou to have such a skill. Take this knife.

The next moment, he was sent flying by Jian Shisan's majestic sword energy, and his body smashed a big hole in the ground.

Xu Beiyou said at the same time, "Who are you?"

The swordsman didn't answer, he jumped out of the big hole he hit, and his figure disappeared in the night again.

After this person left, Xu Beiyou still didn't pursue him, but his face was a little dignified. For him, who was only in the second-rank realm, the embryonic Sword Thirteen was already the bottom of the box. This sword was also Xu Beiyou's stepping stone The acme that can be cultivated before the first-rank realm is known as the majestic and vast sword energy, which varies from person to person. Although Xu Beiyou can only force out a three-foot-long sword energy when using it now, if it is replaced by Shangguan Xianchen back then It is not difficult to destroy the city with one sword.

Back then when the ancestor of the Sword Sect created this sword, its original intention was very domineering, and it was simply to block a million masters with a single sword.

The third attack came slowly. When Xu Beiyou was about to enter the territory of Liaozhou, the swordsman who had not made a move for many days finally "belatedly". Stirring towards Xu Beiyou's lower abdomen, with malicious intentions, he wanted to cut off the roots of Xu Beiyou's descendants. Of course Xu Beiyou disappointed the swordsman again this time. A battle of swords.

The swordsman is the sword technique rolled out of the dead. He dares to fight his life but cherishes his life. He cherishes his life but is not afraid of death. .

There is an old saying that people who are barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes. In the past, Xu Beiyou was also considered barefoot, but now he has put on Jianzong's pair of splendid boots, so he naturally refuses to trade his life with this guy. In the end, the swordsman left a deep bone wound on Xu Beiyou's left arm and fled again.

But this time Xu Beiyou didn't have the good temper he had before, he was a little annoyed at the fact that this person didn't know what was good or bad, and actually wanted to kill himself by cutting his flesh with a blunt knife, so this time Xu Beiyou didn't let him escape, and directly raised his sword to chase him down.

The two chased and fled, quickly left the noisy place, and entered a dense forest not far away again.

But after entering the dense forest, the swordsman seemed to be a different person, from a swordsman to an assassin, instead of running away blindly, he kept ambushing Xu Beiyou, just like the first time the two fought against each other, even though Xu Beiyou was prepared, he still Three wounds were left on Xu Beiyou's body, but he didn't feel well either. During the last ambush, Xu Beiyou's sword pierced his lower abdomen, causing his energy to collapse.

After this hand-to-hand combat, the swordsman began to flee wholeheartedly and stopped ambush Xu Beiyou.This made Xu Beiyou chase him for more than ten miles and finally return without success.

After all this chasing and killing, the anger in Xu Beiyou's chest had almost dissipated, but the swordsman could no longer suppress the anger.

There were only three incidents, and he failed three times to attack and kill. Although he was not discouraged, he still had a backlog of anger. What made him even more indignant and aggrieved was that this young swordsman was obviously a level lower than himself, but he relied on the mystery of cultivation Fajue overwhelmed himself, the swordsman's cultivation was obviously taught by an expert, but he was born at the bottom, how could there be such a chance?You can only fight with ruthlessness and risk your life.

This swordsman must be from a noble family!

Why is it that the things that I have worked so hard to get are so easy to get for a family member, and I don't even look down on them?

He never denied his hatred of the rich.

In his opinion, people who are born rich and noble should be killed!
