Sword God Wine Ancestor

Chapter 294 The Road Meets Pei Jian
When they arrived at Changbai City, Su Bai and the two packed up their luggage, rode on their fast horses, and left all the way.

On the way, Su Bai suddenly asked: "Brother Xu, aren't you going to participate in this year's 'Lunjian Xiaohui'?"

Xu Chengxiang glanced at him, and said with a half smile but not a smile: "Looking at you, you have no plans to participate? And why?"

Su Bai rubbed his nose. The reason why he didn't attend the "Sword Discussion Meeting" was because with his current strength, he really didn't want to compete with those younger generation of sword practitioners. After all, he had already seen it last time. Now, I think it's just that, and now I happen to catch up with the "Famous Sword Villa" incident, so I don't need to say more about the choice.

Su Bai also knew that Xu Chengxiang was already in the first-class realm, and he knew from the other party's expression that the other party had the same idea as him, but he didn't like this "Sword Discussion Meeting" anymore!

The two looked at each other and laughed, knocked on the horse's belly, and a cloud of dust rose from the official road.

The two galloped for a while, and then slowed down. After all, there was no rush and there was no need to hurry. After walking like this for a few days, they were about to enter the boundary of Shuzhou. There are many mountains in Shuzhou, and the roads are difficult. There are not many roads to enter Shuzhou. They happened to come to a place called "Wangyue Gorge" that day.

"Wangyue Gorge" is a canyon, between two huge mountains, but the bottom of the canyon is very wide, enough to accommodate four or five carriages in parallel, but as you go up, the two mountains get closer to the middle, and finally only The remaining width of less than one meter forms a landscape of "a line of sky".

Of course, this "line of sky" exists in many places, so it is not rare. What is rare is that this "line of sky" is located very well, just above the moving track of the moon. Of course, it is not completely coincident, but there is a big From this distance, the moon can be seen.

On a full moon day, it is a rare sight to watch the full moon slowly drifting overhead, which is also the origin of the name "Wangyue Gorge".

It is precisely because of this landscape that a small town has formed outside the canyon, the name is Kawangyue Town, and there are no local residents. Seeing that more people come here to enjoy the scenery, many businessmen feel that it is profitable As shown in the figure, many entertainment and leisure facilities such as inns, restaurants, gambling houses, brothels, etc. have been built. Over time, this place has become more and more prosperous.

Su Bai was even guessing that there might not be so many tourists who came here to enjoy the scenery at the beginning, and the reason for the current prosperous scene is that those businessmen deliberately guide tourists to come here.Before crossing over, in order to make a place popular, Su Bai has seen many methods!
The reason why he had such a guess was because he found that the so-called moon watching in the canyon is not a very beautiful scenery, it is just so-so!It will not attract so many tourists.

Of course, this is also the only way to enter Shu. Before it was established, many pedestrians came and went from here. Now that there is such a town, it is also a good thing to be able to rest. It is precisely because of this It is necessary to make this place prosperous, and there are not many tourists who come here to look at the moon. After all, those pedestrians, even if they are not for looking at the moon, will stop and rest in this moon-watching town.

In a restaurant, Su Bai was still complaining, "Brother Xu, I heard you say how beautiful the 'Wangyue Gorge' looks like before, but I saw it last night, and it's not enough! It's not as beautiful as you boasted!"

Xu Chengxiang said with a smile: "It's the end of August now, and the moon is not round, so it's naturally less interesting. You can see that there are still many red lanterns, ribbon-cutting and other things left by the festival around here, which shows that there are still many red lanterns and ribbon-cutting left over from the previous August [-]th. Five, this place is definitely extremely lively! It's a pity we didn't catch up!"

Su Bai did indeed see some things left after the celebration, as well as some peddlers who hadn't left. It seemed that the place was really lively on August [-]th. The scenery is not very good, but the mood of people should always be good.

He didn't say anything more, the two of them were on the second floor of the restaurant, and it was already past lunch time, the second floor was a hall with seven or eight tables, most of them were by the windows, Looking out from the window, you can see pedestrians coming and going. There are not many people at this time, only three tables have guests.

Su Bai and the two were eating and chatting, they had seen the "Wangyue Gorge", they were going to enter Sichuan today, and they set off after waiting, when they suddenly heard someone coming up the stairs, those slightly slow footsteps were definitely not the shop waiter .

Su Bai and Xu Chengxiang couldn't help looking over, they were startled when they saw the person coming up, they all knew this person, it was Pei Jian who ranked third on the star list!

Su Bai met Pei Jian before, when he was in Nanxuan City, and observed him for a period of time, so he knew him naturally, let alone Xu Chengxiang, he also met him at the "Sword Discussion Meeting", but they They never thought that they would meet each other in such a place.

What Su Bai didn't even expect was that after Pei Jian glanced around, he paused at their table, and then walked straight towards them. Su Bai's heart skipped a beat, but he remembered that the other party didn't recognize him. , Could it be that Pei Jian found out about observing the other party in Nanxuan City, and even secretly following the other party?

But soon Su Bai realized that he was thinking too much, because Pei Jian came here for Xu Chengxiang, and he didn't pay attention to him at all, which made him a little embarrassed.
Seeing Pei Jian approaching, Xu Chengxiang had already stood up, cupped his hands in the distance and said, "I didn't expect to meet Brother Pei here, it's really rare!"

Pei Jian smiled and saluted, "Brother Xu is really polite. I didn't expect to meet him here. Seeing this, Brother Xu is also planning to go to Shu? It seems that our destination is the same."

Xu Chengxiang squinted his eyes slightly when he heard this, and immediately knew that Pei Jian was also going to the "Famous Sword Villa". Ranked third, definitely qualified to be invited by people from "Famous Sword Villa".

Xu Chengxiang smiled and said, "Since we are going the same way, Brother Pei, don't you mind sitting down and having a drink together?"

"That's exactly what I mean!" Pei Jian nodded with a smile, but instead of sitting down, he looked at Su Bai and asked, "I don't know what this brother's name is? It's not easy to think of someone who can be with you, Brother Xu." Bar?"

Seeing that the other party mentioned him, Su Bai didn't wait for Xu Chengxiang's introduction, he stood up, clasped his fists and said, "I'm Su Bai, brother Pei's name has already been heard like thunder!"

The astonishment flashed in Pei Jian's eyes when he heard the words, he sized up Su Bai carefully, and replied, "I didn't expect you to be Su Bai! Last year's 'Lunjian Xiaohui' I couldn't attend because of some personal matters, I didn’t expect to miss such a good swordsman like Brother Su! Later, I heard about Brother Su’s deeds in the "Sword Discussion Meeting", and I regretted it very much!"

Su Bai smiled noncommittally, and suddenly felt that Pei Jian's image was somewhat different from what he thought before. When he met him in Nanxuan City, he showed the image of a proud swordsman, and he was not fake at all for people he didn't know. Color, a look that strangers are not allowed to enter, did not expect that the other party would even say compliments this time?

He shook his head and said: "Brother Pei is really flattered, but he only learned two sword techniques, so he can't be called a good player."

Pei Jian stared and said: "Brother Su is so modest! If you can take a picture on the 'Sword Shadow Monument' with a single sword, and only fight swordsmanship, even Tian Honglin from the 'Great Sword Sect' is no match for him, so you can't be a match." With the title of a master, I am afraid there is no master swordsman in this world! I really want to see your swordsmanship, Brother Su!"

Seeing the light in Pei Jian's eyes, he knew that he was eager to try, but Su Bai didn't want to fight with the opponent now, and the opponent also said just now that when he was fighting with Tian Honglin, he only competed in swordsmanship, so he could win The other party, if it was a real fight with real swords and guns, it would be unknown who would win and who would lose. Even according to what Pei Jian said, Tian Honglin was more likely to win!

Of course, according to Su Bai's strength at that time, it was really difficult for him to win against Tian Honglin in a real fight, but he is already in the first-class state now, and his internal strength has been cultivated for nearly 80 years. , no matter how you fight, the opponent will be tortured!
So although Pei Jian was flattering Su Bai on the surface, or really wanted to see Su Bai's swordsmanship, he didn't feel that he was not Su Bai's opponent. On the contrary, Su Bai couldn't beat him. It's just that I want to experience Su Bai's swordsmanship, and I want to see how Su Bai managed to take a picture of his sword on the "Sword Shadow Monument" and keep a stick of incense lingering for a long time.

Su Bai also understood that Pei Jian was still the proud swordsman before, and hadn't changed. Before, he was not fake to others, just because he felt that the other party didn't need him to treat him politely.The reason why I can talk and laugh with him and Xu Chengxiang now is because he and Xu Chengxiang are both masters of swordsmanship, so they deserve to be friends with him!

After thinking about this, Su Bai actually wanted to fight Pei Jian to see how strong the other party was, but he decided to forget it after another thought. After all, he was not a brave and ruthless person. This was the second, the most important thing. What's more, he felt that there were some secrets hidden in Pei Jian.

When he was in Nanxuan City, he remembered that the other party had conflicts with the shopkeeper of the "Night Walking Pawn Shop", and more than once!That "Night Walking Pawn Shop" actually belonged to "Hundred Ghost Gate", which shows that there was something he didn't know about Pei Jian and "Hundred Ghost Gate". What exactly happened, Su Bai didn't know.

Always, since the other party has something to do with "Hundred Ghost Gate", Su Bai doesn't want to have too much contact with the other party.
