Chapter 248 Chapter 247, Jealousy Makes Her Unrecognizable!
tom tom tom!
In the sound of footsteps like beating drums, Shen Lang came to Lin Yao, looked down at Lin Yao, whose face was pale and her body was trembling because of her tense muscles, and then looked behind Lin Yao, the two scared little hands were holding hands. , the little girl who was ready to be hugged together at any time, grinned the corners of her mouth, showed a mouthful of white teeth, showed a beastly smile, and said in a thunderous and deep voice:
"Three senior sisters, my brother is being polite!"
As he spoke, he clasped his fists and saluted.
Although the smile is wild and the voice is like thunder, the etiquette is quite thoughtful.
Lin Yao breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly returned the salute:
"Junior Brother Shen is so polite."
The expressions of the two little girls at the back also improved a little, they let go of their tightly held hands, and returned the gift to Shen Lang:
"Hello, Junior Brother Shen."
Shen Lang said again:
"These two senior sisters, I don't know if you can teach me their names?"
The little girl with a round face and two ponytails glanced up at him, and said:
"My name is Liang Fengfeng."
The little girl with an oval face and bun head said:
"My name is Yan Yuwei."
Shen Lang smiled heartily:
"Good name! Little brother Shen Beihai, I have met Senior Sister Liang and Senior Sister Yan."
After getting to know two more junior senior sisters, Shen Lang and the three junior senior sisters left the yard together and headed for the Chuan Gong Hall.
The three junior sisters, especially Liang Fengfeng and Yan Yuwei were a little afraid of "Shen Beihai"'s body and appearance.
However, although Shen Beihai looked scary, he was well-mannered, had a bright smile, and spoke nicely. The two little girls finally agreed with Lin Yao's statement:
Junior brother Shen is indeed a very polite kid, not at all as fierce as he looks.
So the four of them quickly talked and laughed along the way.
"Junior Brother Shen, what's the name of your little white cat?" Yan Yuwei, a Baotou who loves kittens, asked.
"It's called Xiao Zhao."
"Xiao Zhao? Is it a male cat or a female cat?"
"It's a little cat."
"Then if I have time in the future, can I play with it?"
"sure."
"Hee hee, thank you, Junior Brother Shen!"
"Junior Brother Shen, I heard from Senior Sister Lin that you still have a little Fire Crow?" Liang Fengfeng, who had a round face and two ponytails, asked curiously: "I heard that Fire Crow is very smart, understands people's language, and can follow instructions to do things."
"Yes, my little fire crow can understand human speech, and can do many things under command."
"Then can I play with it?"
"Okay!"
"Thank you, Junior Brother Shen, you are so kind."
……
Yan Yuwei: "Junior Brother Shen, why did you bring the maid in?"
Shen Lang: "Because I'm too young to do laundry."
Yan Yuwei: "Uh, I mean, why, you can bring a maid to serve you, but we can't?"
Shen Lang: "Maybe because I am timid, afraid of the dark and ghosts, I would be too scared to sleep alone at night, so the sect sympathized with me and allowed me to bring a maid in to protect me?"
"..."
"Junior Brother Shen, why are you so tall and strong? None of the 12-year-old boys I have seen can grow as tall as you. Occasionally, I see a boy who is not short, more than five feet tall, but his body is as thin as that of you. It's like a bamboo pole, like a gust of wind can blow it down... But you, your arms are thicker than my waist..."
"Maybe it's because I'm always afraid of being bullied, so I pray to God every day to grow taller and stronger, so that others will not dare to bully me when they see me looking fierce. After years of prayer, I was finally moved by my heart. God, that's why he grew so tall."
"..."
Shen Lang ran the train with his mouth full, teasing the three little girls.However, when he spoke, he was serious, his tone was sincere, his eyes were clear, and he fooled the three little girls who were not deeply involved in the world into a somewhat trusting look.
Just talking and laughing all the way, the four of them came to the Chuangong Hall of the Lower Court.
At this time, most of the first batch of new disciples living in the collective dormitory also came to the practice field in front of the Chuan Gong Hall, discussing in small groups in small groups, all of them looked excited and looking forward to it.
When Shen Lang walked with the three beautiful little girls with heavy footsteps, the practice field fell silent for a moment, and all the children looked at him in awe, and offered to make way for him and Lin Yao .
It wasn't until the four of them passed by that the little guys started talking again, but the volume was subconsciously lowered a lot.
Shen Lang and Lin Yao stood at the door of Chuan Gong Hall, waiting patiently.
Soon, the door of Chuan Gong Hall opened, and the deacon Chen Yifei who met yesterday, and the male deacon yesterday came out accompanied by a tall woman.
The woman was dressed in a black dress, with a red ribbon tied around her slender waist, her long hair tied into a high ponytail, and she was dressed like a heroic chivalrous woman.
She is also very pretty, not inferior to Bai Shishi and Gu Hongye, her skin is also white and delicate, her legs are straight and slender, but her eyes are a bit cold, with slightly raised corners of her eyes, giving people a kind of arrogance and reservedness, difficult to approach a feeling of.
Accompanied by Chen Yifei and the male deacon, the woman stood on the steps in front of the door, condescendingly looking down at the more than 50 new disciples on the training ground, and when her eyes swept over Shen Lang, she paused for a moment.
Chen Yifei quickly explained in a low voice:
"That's Shen Beihai, the eldest son of the Xiongweihou family, who is only 12 years old this year."
"Xiongweihou's family?" The woman pondered for a while: "The Shen family that can awaken the blood of giants from generation to generation?"
Chen Yifei admired:
"Elder Dugu has extensive knowledge and knowledge, and he is the Shen family."
The woman nodded slightly:
"So that's how it is. No wonder she looks like this at the age of 12."
Not caring much, she took her eyes away from Shen Lang, and glanced at the other children, and the woman asked:
"The first batch of disciples, are there any good seedlings?"
Chen Yifei raised her hand and pointed at Lin Yao:
"The one named Lin Yao is born with strong tendons and strong bones, and his meridians are also extremely tough and smooth. He is a good seedling. I just don't know how to understand."
The woman stared at Lin Yao, her eyes were so sharp that Lin Yao felt as if two flying needles were piercing her eyes, so she instinctively closed her eyes, took a step back, as if to dodge.
The woman snorted lightly:
"The perception is good. The perception should not be bad."
Chen Yifei smiled:
"This is only the first batch. In the next nine days, there should be quite a few good seedlings."
The woman said coldly:
"I hope so. I recently had the idea of recruiting disciples. You are here to teach these new disciples well. I will come again in ten days and pick the two best seedlings to be my personal disciples."
Chen Yifei hurriedly saluted:
"Elder Dugu, don't worry, I will definitely teach the new disciples well and pick out the best seedlings for the elders."
The woman glanced at her and said lightly:
"Then I will trouble you."
After speaking, he left the training ground and walked away.
It wasn't until the woman left that Chen Yifei and the male deacon breathed a sigh of relief and got rid of the state of petty flattery.
Shen Lang also raised his hand at the right time to ask:
"Deacon Chen, who was that pretty big sister just now?"
Pretty big sister?
Chen Yifei laughed and scolded:
"You have a sweet mouth, kid. The one just now is my star perishing sect elder Duguxue, who is only 25 years old this year and is already a third-rank warrior. Since you are longing for martial arts and apprentices from the star perishing gate, you should know how many third-rank warriors are." Rare?
"Elder Duguxue is already one of the top martial artists in the world at such a young age. She wants to take in two direct disciples recently. If any of you perform well and are favored by Elder Dugu and accepted by her as a disciple, that would be a shame. It’s really smoking from the ancestral grave!”
When the children heard this, their eyes lit up immediately, and they were gearing up, full of energy.
Even Lin Yao, who was startled by Dugu Xue's piercing gaze just now, had a flushed face, her eyes sparkling with anticipation.
Shen Lang also put on an expectant look on his face, but he didn't think so in his heart.
He has read the information about Duguxue, the elder of Chuan Gong, the daughter of Dugu Wei, the great elder of the Xingfamen Sect.
Although he is indeed a third-rank martial artist, he is only a third-rank beginner who has condensed the "Life and Death Aperture".
At the age of 25, you can only enter the third rank...
Compared with his leader, Mr. Mu, he was simply reduced to scum in seconds.
Of course, objectively speaking, even if it's just an introduction to the third rank, as long as it's not a "pseudo third rank", it's a dragon and a phoenix among people.
After all, in the Great Eastern Chu with a population of more than 5 million, there are only more than 100 third-rank warriors with names and surnames on the surface.
Moreover, at Duguxue's age and state, if compared with Yan Tianying when she was young, she would be able to turn Yan Tianying into scum...
Chen Yifei encouraged the disciples with a few words, then got straight to the point, asked the disciples to line up, and began to teach them the basic boxing techniques of the Starfall Sect.
The basic boxing method of Xingdie Gate is called "Hundred Steps Serial Boxing".
There are ten moves in this boxing technique, and each move will take ten steps forward and backward, from the beginning to the end of the fight, you can take exactly one hundred steps.
Since it is a basic boxing method, of course it is mainly used for strength training of the ninth grade, which can comprehensively exercise the strength of legs, feet, back, shoulders and arms.
Basically, if you can hit the hundred-step serial fist from beginning to end without resting, and your steps are not disordered, then you can integrate all your strength into one, and strike an explosive fist that condenses your whole body's strength.
After introducing the "Hundred Steps Chain Boxing", Chen Yifei personally went off to demonstrate and teach the disciples the first move.
The first move of basic boxing is naturally the simplest. Chen Yifei first punched it in one go, and then dismantled the footwork of ten forward and backward moves one by one, as well as the knack of exerting force from legs, feet, back, shoulders and arms when stepping.
After this explanation, the children with the best savvy, such as Lin Yao, can already play decently. With a little correction from Chen Yifei, they can hit the first move perfectly.
As a fourth-rank martial artist, Shen Lang is also the king of routines. Of course, he can learn this kind of basic boxing that only exercises and does not kill the enemy.
He didn't hide his clumsiness either. Duguxue was coming to take in two direct disciples in ten days. Shen Lang really wanted to take this opportunity to get along with Duguxue, so he showed his true skills and performed better than Lin Yao. up a little bit.
Seeing that Shen Lang is not a brainless man with well-developed limbs, and his understanding is also very good, Chen Yifei nodded in relief, encouraged him and Lin Yao and other disciples who had learned the fastest, and gave a few words to the others who hadn't learned yet. His disciples demonstrated, dismantled the movements, and explained the essentials.
Seeing that Chen Yifei taught his disciples so hard, Shen Lang confirmed his own thoughts - there may be some problems with the style of the Star Perishing Sect, and some people in the Sect are even suspected of colluding with the Demon God, but not everyone is a bad person.
At least the deacon Chen Yifei who is in charge of the House of Commons is quite good.
But that Duguxue looked too cold and arrogant.
Moreover, her aloofness and arrogance were not the "fake arrogance" that Mu Qingxue pretended to avoid trouble.
With Shen Lang's current spiritual perception, of course it can be seen that that Elder Duguxue really has a kind of arrogance in his bones.
There is even a feeling that the little celestial master Lian Yunxiao is so defiant and despises everything.
I don't know what she is proud of - she only entered the third rank at the age of 25, how can she be arrogant and arrogant?
Well, she also has a father who is a third-rank master, maybe this is her cold and arrogant confidence?
The entry-level basic boxing technique is simple after all, and the first move is the foundation of the foundation. After a short period of time, all the children have basically learned it—yesterday, more than 1000 children signed up, and only [-] people were selected in the end. The rest of more than a thousand people were all deposed.
With such a strict selection rate, the disciples who can be selected will naturally not be far behind.
Even if comprehension can't be seen for a while, but comprehension is something that can only be truly distinguished when Qipin starts to practice breathing and breathing.
At the ninth and eighth ranks, most of the martial arts apprentices who were selected based on their physical and mental aptitudes were not much different.
After spending half an hour teaching all the disciples the first basic boxing moves, Chen Yifei and the male deacon hurried to the large training ground at the gate of the Lower Court, and continued to be busy with recruiting students.
Shen Lang and more than 50 disciples stayed on the practice field at the entrance of the Chuan Gong Hall in the lower courtyard to continue practicing martial arts, and two inner disciples were on the sidelines to supervise and guide them.
After practicing for about an hour, the sky was bright, and the two inner disciples took the new disciples to the dining hall for breakfast.
Disband after breakfast, and then until tomorrow morning, it is free time for activities.
Disciples can choose to practice moderately on their own. Both the outdoor practice field and the indoor practice room are open to disciples.
All kinds of body training equipment, except for some dangerous equipment that needs to be supervised by the teacher, are also allowed to be used by the disciples.
Of course, disciples can also choose to herd sheep and have fun, and play casually, and no one will scold them.
This is of course not that the disciples of the Star Perishing Sect are irresponsible and let the disciples fend for themselves.
This is actually a test.
Martial arts requires a high degree of self-discipline.
But in this world, children who are [-], [-] or [-] or [-] can already understand things very well, but if they can't even overcome their playfulness and self-discipline, after three years, they will most likely be kicked out. Go out of the wall, go back home or go wandering by yourself.
Only when both talent and self-discipline are paid equal attention can they be the real martial arts seedlings, worthy of the sect's careful cultivation.
Shen Lang, Lin Yao, Yan Yuwei, and Liang Fengfeng finished their meal at the same table, and walked out of the dining hall together.
Lin Yao asked him: "Junior Brother Shen, are you going to continue practicing martial arts on the training ground?"
Shen Lang shook his head:
"No more. I have already learned the first move. For body training, I have been lifting stone locks, carrying stone mills, and wrestling with bulls since I was a child. I have nothing to do with strength. I have to go back to school. Warriors are good at kung fu alone." It’s not enough, you have to study to open up your wits and grow your brains.”
Lin Yao was immediately in awe:
"Junior brother Shen is not only in good health, but also loves to read so much. In the future, he will be able to become a great general with both civil and military skills!"
Shen Lang laughed:
"Senior Sister Cheng said auspiciously, if I become a general in the future, I should ask Sister Lin to be my military advisor."
Lin Yao blinked in confusion:
"I heard that most of the military advisers in the army are Daoist monks. We warriors can also be military advisers?"
Yan Yuwei also said:
"That's right, Senior Sister Lin is still a girl. How can a girl be a military advisor?"
Liang Fengfeng said with a smile:
"You can't be a military adviser, but you can be the general's wife or Mrs. Hou Ye!"
Lin Yao blushed and raised her fist as if to strike:
"Talk nonsense, beg for beating!"
Liang Fengfeng quickly hid behind Yan Yuwei, giggling: "Senior sister, please forgive me, I'm just joking..."
"Joking is not allowed, Junior Brother Shen is only 12 years old, and I am only 13 years old."
"Then Junior Brother Shen and you will both grow up..."
"Hmph, why don't you be the general's wife and Mrs. Hou Ye?"
"I like white-faced niche!"
"Then why would I like the big black guy...Uh, I'm sorry Junior Brother Shen, I'm not saying you're ugly..."
"..."
On the top of Nine Immortals Mountain, the upper courtyard of Xingdie Gate.
Duguxue, the elder of Chuangong, is in charge of managing the true disciples in the upper courtyard, and teaches the disciples to solve their doubts.
At this time, she was walking on a bamboo forest path with her hands behind her back, expressionless, towards the Chuan Gong Hall of the upper courtyard.
As he was walking, he suddenly heard a man and a woman talking in the bamboo forest ahead.
"Senior Brother, have you heard? Mu Qingxue of the 'Ruthless Iron Judge' from the Shenhuntang, broke through the realm a month ago and was promoted to the second rank. Now he is No. 11 in the world in the second rank of the Stellar Qi Realm."
"Of course I've heard of this. I also heard that the day after Mu Qingxue broke through the realm, she beheaded Guo Kai, the master of the Yujing Temple and the 'Jade Jing Pufa Master' bestowed by the emperor! But Guo Kai As for the third rank of Taoism, it should be able to compete with the veteran second rank warriors, but unexpectedly, Mu Qingxue, a new second rank who has only broken through for a day, will be beheaded! The number one martial arts genius of the contemporary era really lives up to his reputation!"
"Miss Mu is really amazing! I heard that she is one of the most beautiful women in the capital... Beautiful and strong, how can there be such a perfect woman in the world? If I can have half of her, no, if I can do something, I will have no regrets in this life." ..."
Hearing this, Duguxue lowered her eyelids and walked over expressionlessly, and saw two young men and women wearing the training clothes of true disciples, cuddling together in the bamboo forest, looking like you and me.
Hearing the sound of Duguxue's deliberate footsteps, the two true disciples turned their heads and were startled. They separated quickly and clasped their fists at Duguxue:
"Meet Elder Dugu."
Dugu Xue stared at the two true disciples with an expressionless face and cold eyes, and said slowly:
"Whose apprentices are you?"
The male disciple was ashamed and said:
"Back to Elder Dugu, the two of us were only promoted to True Biography last year, and we haven't been admitted to the gate wall by any deacon or elder yet."
Duguxue snorted coldly:
"I was promoted as a true biography last year, but I haven't been favored by any deacon or elder yet. You two don't want to practice hard, but you want to talk about love and gossip here. My Starfall Sect doesn't need you. Disciple who doesn't want to make progress! Pack up my things immediately and get out of the upper courtyard!"
The pair of true disciples were shocked, as if struck by lightning, they looked at Duguxue in disbelief, never expecting that Elder Dugu would expel them from the Upper Court for such a trivial matter——
Star perishing sect disciples have practiced together with male and female disciples since they were in the lower courtyard. It is normal for them to develop feelings after getting along day and night for many years.
The Star Perishing Sect doesn't prohibit disciples from falling in love, as long as they don't delay their practice.
And the two of them can be promoted from the outer gate of the lower court, the inner gate of the atrium all the way to the true biography of the upper court, there must be no delay in their cultivation.
Among the true disciples of the Upper Court, there are many male and female disciples who are in love or even talking about marriage. The law enforcement elders have never cared about this kind of thing. Why is Duguxue, the elder of the teaching practice, suddenly so strict today and want to expel them from the Upper Court?
Dazed and full of grievances, the two just stared at Duguxue blankly, forgetting to even beg.
Duguxue looked at the two with cold eyes, suddenly raised her hand to grab, and took a picture of the authentic jade pendant hanging on the two people's belts from the air. With five fingers together, with a bang, she kneaded the two jade plaques into jade powder.
Then he flicked his sleeves again, and an invisible force slammed heavily on the chests of the two true disciples, causing the two of them to spurt blood from their mouths, they were thrown out, broke a piece of thick bamboo, and fell into the depths of the bamboo forest.
Only then did he snort coldly:
"After half an hour, if you are still in the upper court, the door will punish you!"
After all, he walked away with a cold face.
After a long time, in the depths of the bamboo forest, the sound of the male and female disciples coughing up blood and their intermittent wailing could be heard...
Duguxue returned to the Chuan Gong Hall of the upper courtyard, stepped into her residence, and as soon as she closed the door, her cold and pretty face instantly distorted, her forehead burst into veins, her eyes were ferocious, and she gritted her teeth and growled:
"Mu Qingxue! It's Mu Qingxue again! Why didn't that little bitch die when she hit the Baihui acupoint? Why was she able to break through the pass and be promoted to the second rank?"
While roaring and roaring, she raised her hand to grab a beautiful pillow, and tore it into pieces with a few sneers, and the fluff flew around.
After that, he still couldn't let go of his hatred, and took another copper censer with a crane beak, and tore it wildly with his hands, tearing the brass censer to pieces in a blink of an eye.
She held a fragment of the incense burner, exerted force with her claws, and kneaded it into various shapes like kneading dough, imagining that what she was pinching was Mu Qingxue's face, while twisting her livid face, she growled viciously:
"If I had known this, I should have crippled her on the spot back then!"
Duguxue knew Mu Qingxue.
Five years ago, Mu Qingxue was 17 years old, and he was only at the mid-stage of the fourth rank, and he was still one step away from the great success of the fourth rank.
And Duguxue was 20 years old, and she had been at the fourth rank for a long time, and she was already preparing to condense the "Life and Death Aperture" to attack the third rank.
In the spring of that year, she followed her father Duguwei to the Forbidden Army camp to pay a visit to the great general Baihuchan.
Bai Huchan liked her very much, and he gave her some tips on how to break through the third rank, and even after the third rank.
Afterwards, Bai Huchan took her father and daughter to a certain prince's banquet. On that day, because of a case involving that prince, Yan Tianying brought Mu Qingxue to the door to inquire. He proposes to challenge Mu Qingxue.
Mu Qingxue did not refuse.
Yan Tianying didn't stop him either.
So Duguxue fought Mu Qingxue on the training ground of the palace.
The Star Perishing Sect has been able to stand upright from the previous dynasty to the present, and it has produced third ranks from generation to generation, not only because of the accuracy of standing in line.
The exercises passed down by his sect are also the top magical skills in the world.
The fundamental skill "Xing Yuan Jue", the internal strength and true energy cultivated, no matter whether it is vigorous or pure, are far superior to those of the same realm warriors.
Although there are no extreme attributes such as ice, fire, sharpness, and poison, but both offense and defense are also very good.
And after the "Xing Yuan Jue" is cultivated to the level of true qi, the true qi will undergo mysterious changes, generating powerful suction and repulsion.
This suction and repulsion is used properly, and it can easily disrupt the opponent's footwork, movement, and movement rhythm during close combat.
At the completion of the fourth rank, the True Qi of Xing Yuan Jue can even create an invisible force field, not only can attract and repel force at will, making the opponent feel like falling into a turbulent seabed, making it difficult to control oneself, it can also absorb the opponent's True Qi, Supplementing one's own consumption makes the opponent weaker and weaker as the battle progresses, while oneself can always maintain a peak state.
The skill of "Xing Yuan Jue" also has a miraculous effect on tempering the body, making the body far stronger than that of the same fighters.
At that time, Duguxue was already a fourth-rank master, and was able to display all kinds of magic of "Xing Yuan Jue".
Moreover, not only is her realm beyond Mu Qingxue's, she is also three years older than Mu Qingxue, and has more combat experience.So in that fight, Duguxue only used a hundred moves to completely defeat Mu Qingxue.
At that time, she had the opportunity to severely injure and even destroy Mu Qingxue, but because Yan Tianying was watching the battle, Duguxue didn't dare to deal a ruthless blow, and only beat Mu Qingxue until she vomited a few mouthfuls of blood.
After winning the big victory, Duguxue taunted Mu Qingxue a few words in a strange manner. She originally planned that Mu Qingxue would never recover from a setback and was completely decadent, but she never expected...
At the end of the spring of the next year, when she finished half a year of seclusion, she finally succeeded in refining the "Life and Death Aperture", advanced to the third rank, and left the seclusion full of ambition, but she heard that Mu Qingxue had advanced to the third rank half a month earlier than her.
Since then, the name Mu Qingxue has become Duguxue's curse.
The number one martial arts genius of the present age, the new martial arts star who is expected to be the first rank, the heir to the leader of the heroes, the next catcher of the Shenhuntang...
Rumors about Mu Qingxue continued to circulate in the world, and her reputation became more and more famous.
People in the martial arts gradually change their expressions towards the "ruthless iron judge" Mu Qingxue, and talk about her amazing achievements and her unbelievable speed of cultivation with admiration and fear, but they have long forgotten that Mu Qingxue was once killed. Qingxue defeated Duguxue in public, who was once famous in the capital, was compared with Mu Qingxue by the martial arts of the capital for a long time, and was also called "Shuangxue Qishu".
To this day, Duguxue is still only a third-rank entry. Although the other acupoints have been condensed and their skills are much stronger than when they first entered the third-rank, the most important nine profound orifices are still only condensed "Life and Death Aperture". The second great profound orifice has not yet been condensed successfully.
As for Mu Qingxue, it seemed that a month ago, she broke through the life-and-death barrier of "Baihui Point" and was promoted to the second rank.
Her record has also become even more astonishing—last year in the desert of the Western Regions, she single-handedly pursued the remnants of the Dawei King Kong Temple, fought thousands of miles in the desert, and beheaded all the remnants of the Dawei King Kong Temple. Warriors, two fourth-rank Dharma practitioners.
At the beginning of this year, on the second day after he was promoted to the second rank, he beheaded the third rank Dharma repairer, Guo Kai, the master of Yujing Pufa.
What the two true disciples didn't know was that two days ago, Mu Qingxue had killed an evil dragon in Damangze whose strength was equivalent to that of a third-rank Dacheng warrior, and who was also capable of making waves and breathing poisonous mist.
Mu Qingxue's reputation is even more prestigious. Everyone thinks that she will definitely be promoted to the first rank, and will inherit Yan Tianying's mantle in the future, in charge of the God Catching Hall, and monitor the world's crimes.
But Duguxue has already disappeared from everyone.
For a long time, no one talked about her deeds of beating Mu Qingxue in public, and talked about her reputation as the "Shuangxue Qishu" alongside Mu Qingxue.
Even though the third-rank is also a dragon and phoenix among people, but after condensing the "Life and Death Aperture", a mere one has not been able to condense the second profound orifice for four years. The entry-level third-rank, who is suspected to have exhausted his potential, is considered among the third-rank warriors in the world. what?
Today, Duguxue can't hear the word "Mu Qingxue".
Every time she hears this name, it will make her jealous, and her regret is like ten thousand ants eating her heart.
Why……
Why didn't you dare to be more ruthless five years ago?
Martial arts competitions, serious injuries and even death are common occurrences. Since Mu Qingxue dared to accept her challenge, she should bear all the consequences.
And Yan Tianying, as the "leader of all heroes", the number one master in the world, and her father's peer, even if she beat Mu Qingxue to death, it is absolutely impossible for her to bully the small and hurt her. killer.
It's a pity, it's annoying, it's hateful!
Duguxue regretted her cowardice, but chose to ignore it. With Yan Tianying by her side, even if he would not bully the small with the big, but at critical moments, it is more than enough to protect her real and nameless personal disciples and successors.
After all, it was just a martial arts competition.
Serious consequences are allowed in the martial arts competition, but since it is not a life-and-death duel, then Yan Tianying rescues Mu Qingxue, and then makes Mu Qingxue admit defeat in public, admitting that her skills are inferior to others, and the audience has nothing to say.
Duguxue would not admit this.
She will only be annoyed and jealous.
In front of people, when she heard Mu Qingxue's name, she could force herself to hold her expression.
But when she got to the person and returned to her room, she let the jealousy rage, her expression was ferocious, and her face was beyond recognition.
She gritted her teeth, feeling that it was not enough to tear apart a copper incense burner, she took another jeweled sword from the air, kneaded it into a ball of steel, handed it to her mouth and bit it fiercely, as if she was biting Mu Qingxue's flesh and blood.
She chewed hard on the steel sword fragments until she chewed them into steel slag, and then spit them out with a puff, and the thick sandalwood incense case was riddled with holes like a rain of bullets.
After venting so fiercely for a while, she finally calmed down and returned to her cold and arrogant appearance.
"Yan Tianying worked hard for 30 years before he was promoted to the first rank. When he was 25 years old, it seemed that he had just been promoted to the fourth rank... A material like Yan Tianying can reach the first rank, and even become the invincible leader of all heroes in the world ', why can't I?"
Duguxue walked to the balcony facing the cliff, stood by the railing, let the mountain wind blow her long hair in black, and stared coldly at the courtyard at the foot of the mountain:
"So what about Mu Qingxue's momentary elation? I, Duguxue, will catch up sooner or later! This day is not too far away!"
At the foot of the mountain, the lower house.
Shen Lang bid farewell to the three junior sisters who went to the practice room to continue their studies, and returned to his own small courtyard alone.
Gu Hongye was wearing that black-bottomed flame-pattern tunic with a very slim figure, and the sleeves were rolled up, revealing her snow-white forearms. She sat on a small stool and vigorously scrubbed the underwear that Shen Lang had replaced with a washboard.
Hearing Shen Lang's footsteps, she raised her head and smiled, revealing her white teeth:
"Coming back so early?"
Shen Lang nodded:
"Well. I taught a basic boxing technique today, and then we need to learn by ourselves. I can't play with the children, so I just came back."
Gu Hongye blinked, teasingly said:
"Can't play with children? I saw you talking and laughing with those three little girls in the morning. Didn't you have a good time?"
Shen Lang also smiled:
"In our line of work, most of the things we see are heavy and dark, and it is inevitable that we will feel a little depressed. Occasionally, we can relax by talking, joking and playing with good, innocent children.
"The most important thing is, looking at their innocent, lively, innocent and lovely appearance, my heart will be full of motivation, and I will spontaneously have a kind of... the beautiful thought of protecting them."
Gu Hongye chuckled lightly:
"But you yourself are not a few years older than them."
Shen Lang laughed heartily:
"I'm different. I'm older by nature. Although I'm not really old, my mental age is much older than you and Muda people."
Gu Hongye chuckled:
"It's true. Your words and deeds will always make people forget your age unconsciously, and they can't help but regard you as a steady and reliable big brother."
Shen Lang teased: "Then call me brother, listen?"
Gu Hongye was really not shy, she glanced at him tactfully, and called out in a soft and charming tune.
"Good brother."
Shen Lang shivered, and quickly changed the subject:
"Then what, you don't need to wash your clothes so hard. I am already a fourth-rank martial artist, and there is no dirt on my body. The underwear is very clean. Don't rub it for me."
Gu Hongye smiled and said:
"I have to hang some clothes to dry, and put on a show. Otherwise, wouldn't it seem that I, a guard, are redundant?"
"That's true."
He looked left and right, but he couldn't see Xiao Zhao and the others, and he didn't even see the shadow of the little fish in the lotus pond, so he couldn't help asking:
"Where are my cat, rabbit, and Firecrow?"
Gu Hongye apologized:
"The cat caught a small red carp from the lotus pond, and ran out with it in its mouth. Then your firecrow opened the cage door by itself, and flew away with the rabbit in its paws. Sorry, I didn't watch them well, let your fish And the rabbit was eaten by the cat and the fire crow... How about I go to the town outside and buy you a red carp and a little white rabbit?"
Shen Lang shook his head:
"Forget it, they've played enough, they will come back naturally."
"But your fish and rabbits..."
"The cat and the bird will bring them back."
"what?"
Shen Lang smiled:
"Anyway, you don't have to worry about them, it's fine."
After finishing speaking, he walked into the house:
"I went back to meditate. What do you want for lunch? I'll cook."
"What's the point of that? You are the young master now..."
"Okay then, come and cook, and I'll just sit back and enjoy it."
"I'm just being polite..."
"Sorry, I don't know what it means to be polite."
Back in the house, Shen Lang first contacted Xiao Zhao and the others, and learned that they were playing in the forest outside, even the bones were gone, he shook his head helplessly, and told them not to play too crazy, save some energy for work at night reconnaissance.
However, Xiao Zhao and the others unanimously stated that their current physical strength is boundless, and no matter how crazy they are playing, they can't miss the business.
He had no choice but to tell them not to forget to come back for dinner, so he closed his eyes and began to meditate.
At noon, Lin Yao, Yan and Liang, two young senior sisters, had lunch in the dining hall, and when they passed by Shen Lang's small courtyard, they came in to say hello.Yan Yuwei was a little disappointed that she didn't see the kitten.Liang Fengfeng who couldn't see Little Fire Crow was also a little disappointed.Then the three young senior sisters declined Shen Lang's lunch invitation and went back to their residence.
The afternoon also passed in such a calm manner, the goblins who had played wildly all day didn't come back until dark, avoiding Gu Hongye, and quietly looking for Shen Lang who had already had dinner to eat.
"You have been playing in the woods all day, and you haven't bought any game?"
Xiao Zhao spoke eloquently:
"Wild game can only be tasted occasionally. The meat is too rough and there is no seasoning. It is actually not very delicious."
Xiaoyu nodded in agreement:
"Yes. Well-cooked food is better."
While combing the feathers, Xiaoye said leisurely:
"I can cook barbecue, but unfortunately I can't change the seasoning. The grilled game is tasteless. Let's eat it raw...we are all fairies now, how can we still drink blood?"
Xiao Zhao, who is not taboo about raw food, glanced at Xiao Ye subtly, feeling that this bird that always likes to stand on a high place, condescending and looking down on other monsters, has something in it, and it is yin and yang.
Xiaoya doesn't care:
"I'm already full... There are a lot of wild vegetables in the forest, and there are many delicious mushrooms. I also brought some spores back, and I plan to plant them in the space, and then make soup for Shen Lang."
"Xiaoya is so good..." Shen Lang touched Xiaoya's head with a smile, then looked at Xiaogu: "Xiaogu, you are not hungry, are you?"
[I thought, smell, taste. 】
So Shen Lang waved his hand, and took all the goblins into the space - he made the dinner by himself, and he had already prepared barbecue, pastries and other delicacies for the goblins.
Just as the goblins were feasting in the space, Gu Hongye knocked on the door and came in:
"I seemed to hear a voice inside just now? It seemed to be a child's voice? Who are you talking to?"
"I didn't talk to anyone, I was practicing ventriloquism."
Shen Lang said without changing his expression, currently only Mu Qingxue and the elder sister know about the existence of the goblins.Although Bai Shishi knew how terrifying Shen Lang's "little monsters" were, she really didn't know that they were little fairies who could talk and transform into shapes.
"Venturi?" Gu Hongye was dubious: "Can you still imitate the voice of a child?"
"That's right, I can imitate." Shen Lang said solemnly, "But don't expect me to perform for you, I only practice by myself when no one is around."
"Hehe, I really didn't want to hear your performance." Gu Hongye smiled at Chen Lang: "Practicing oral skills is not as good as practicing tongue skills. It is more practical."
She stuck out her tongue, but the tip of her tongue actually forked, and the tip of her tongue could make various flexible movements independently.
Shen Lang admired this ability, so he raised his thumb:
"Great!"
Gu Hongye chuckled lightly, with a subtle look in his eyes:
"It's even worse, you'll know later. By the way, the hot water is ready, go take a bath."
"it is good."
Shen Lang nodded, got up and left the bedroom, went downstairs to the bathroom in the backyard.
Pushing open the bathroom door, bypassing the screen, and coming to the big wooden barrel filled with hot water, Shen Lang took off his clothes, jumped into the barrel, and took a comfortable bath.
While it was soaking, the porter rang, and Gu Hongye walked around the screen with a small wooden basin filled with saponins and loofah pulp.
Shen Lang quickly unfolded the towel, placed it on the water in front of him, and asked:
"How did you come?"
Gu Hongye lowered her eyebrows, her cheeks were slightly red:
"I'm your bodyguard. I'm in charge of taking care of your daily life. Of course I'm here to serve you when you take a bath!"
"But isn't this just pretending?"
Gu Hongye smiled sweetly:
"Then let's stop pretending. I am the dowry maid who accompanied Miss Mu into the Shen family. You are my master. When you take a bath, I will serve you wholeheartedly."
Shen Lang was stunned for a moment, only felt that what she said made sense and left him speechless.
[Seek a monthly pass~! 】
(End of this chapter)
tom tom tom!
In the sound of footsteps like beating drums, Shen Lang came to Lin Yao, looked down at Lin Yao, whose face was pale and her body was trembling because of her tense muscles, and then looked behind Lin Yao, the two scared little hands were holding hands. , the little girl who was ready to be hugged together at any time, grinned the corners of her mouth, showed a mouthful of white teeth, showed a beastly smile, and said in a thunderous and deep voice:
"Three senior sisters, my brother is being polite!"
As he spoke, he clasped his fists and saluted.
Although the smile is wild and the voice is like thunder, the etiquette is quite thoughtful.
Lin Yao breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly returned the salute:
"Junior Brother Shen is so polite."
The expressions of the two little girls at the back also improved a little, they let go of their tightly held hands, and returned the gift to Shen Lang:
"Hello, Junior Brother Shen."
Shen Lang said again:
"These two senior sisters, I don't know if you can teach me their names?"
The little girl with a round face and two ponytails glanced up at him, and said:
"My name is Liang Fengfeng."
The little girl with an oval face and bun head said:
"My name is Yan Yuwei."
Shen Lang smiled heartily:
"Good name! Little brother Shen Beihai, I have met Senior Sister Liang and Senior Sister Yan."
After getting to know two more junior senior sisters, Shen Lang and the three junior senior sisters left the yard together and headed for the Chuan Gong Hall.
The three junior sisters, especially Liang Fengfeng and Yan Yuwei were a little afraid of "Shen Beihai"'s body and appearance.
However, although Shen Beihai looked scary, he was well-mannered, had a bright smile, and spoke nicely. The two little girls finally agreed with Lin Yao's statement:
Junior brother Shen is indeed a very polite kid, not at all as fierce as he looks.
So the four of them quickly talked and laughed along the way.
"Junior Brother Shen, what's the name of your little white cat?" Yan Yuwei, a Baotou who loves kittens, asked.
"It's called Xiao Zhao."
"Xiao Zhao? Is it a male cat or a female cat?"
"It's a little cat."
"Then if I have time in the future, can I play with it?"
"sure."
"Hee hee, thank you, Junior Brother Shen!"
"Junior Brother Shen, I heard from Senior Sister Lin that you still have a little Fire Crow?" Liang Fengfeng, who had a round face and two ponytails, asked curiously: "I heard that Fire Crow is very smart, understands people's language, and can follow instructions to do things."
"Yes, my little fire crow can understand human speech, and can do many things under command."
"Then can I play with it?"
"Okay!"
"Thank you, Junior Brother Shen, you are so kind."
……
Yan Yuwei: "Junior Brother Shen, why did you bring the maid in?"
Shen Lang: "Because I'm too young to do laundry."
Yan Yuwei: "Uh, I mean, why, you can bring a maid to serve you, but we can't?"
Shen Lang: "Maybe because I am timid, afraid of the dark and ghosts, I would be too scared to sleep alone at night, so the sect sympathized with me and allowed me to bring a maid in to protect me?"
"..."
"Junior Brother Shen, why are you so tall and strong? None of the 12-year-old boys I have seen can grow as tall as you. Occasionally, I see a boy who is not short, more than five feet tall, but his body is as thin as that of you. It's like a bamboo pole, like a gust of wind can blow it down... But you, your arms are thicker than my waist..."
"Maybe it's because I'm always afraid of being bullied, so I pray to God every day to grow taller and stronger, so that others will not dare to bully me when they see me looking fierce. After years of prayer, I was finally moved by my heart. God, that's why he grew so tall."
"..."
Shen Lang ran the train with his mouth full, teasing the three little girls.However, when he spoke, he was serious, his tone was sincere, his eyes were clear, and he fooled the three little girls who were not deeply involved in the world into a somewhat trusting look.
Just talking and laughing all the way, the four of them came to the Chuangong Hall of the Lower Court.
At this time, most of the first batch of new disciples living in the collective dormitory also came to the practice field in front of the Chuan Gong Hall, discussing in small groups in small groups, all of them looked excited and looking forward to it.
When Shen Lang walked with the three beautiful little girls with heavy footsteps, the practice field fell silent for a moment, and all the children looked at him in awe, and offered to make way for him and Lin Yao .
It wasn't until the four of them passed by that the little guys started talking again, but the volume was subconsciously lowered a lot.
Shen Lang and Lin Yao stood at the door of Chuan Gong Hall, waiting patiently.
Soon, the door of Chuan Gong Hall opened, and the deacon Chen Yifei who met yesterday, and the male deacon yesterday came out accompanied by a tall woman.
The woman was dressed in a black dress, with a red ribbon tied around her slender waist, her long hair tied into a high ponytail, and she was dressed like a heroic chivalrous woman.
She is also very pretty, not inferior to Bai Shishi and Gu Hongye, her skin is also white and delicate, her legs are straight and slender, but her eyes are a bit cold, with slightly raised corners of her eyes, giving people a kind of arrogance and reservedness, difficult to approach a feeling of.
Accompanied by Chen Yifei and the male deacon, the woman stood on the steps in front of the door, condescendingly looking down at the more than 50 new disciples on the training ground, and when her eyes swept over Shen Lang, she paused for a moment.
Chen Yifei quickly explained in a low voice:
"That's Shen Beihai, the eldest son of the Xiongweihou family, who is only 12 years old this year."
"Xiongweihou's family?" The woman pondered for a while: "The Shen family that can awaken the blood of giants from generation to generation?"
Chen Yifei admired:
"Elder Dugu has extensive knowledge and knowledge, and he is the Shen family."
The woman nodded slightly:
"So that's how it is. No wonder she looks like this at the age of 12."
Not caring much, she took her eyes away from Shen Lang, and glanced at the other children, and the woman asked:
"The first batch of disciples, are there any good seedlings?"
Chen Yifei raised her hand and pointed at Lin Yao:
"The one named Lin Yao is born with strong tendons and strong bones, and his meridians are also extremely tough and smooth. He is a good seedling. I just don't know how to understand."
The woman stared at Lin Yao, her eyes were so sharp that Lin Yao felt as if two flying needles were piercing her eyes, so she instinctively closed her eyes, took a step back, as if to dodge.
The woman snorted lightly:
"The perception is good. The perception should not be bad."
Chen Yifei smiled:
"This is only the first batch. In the next nine days, there should be quite a few good seedlings."
The woman said coldly:
"I hope so. I recently had the idea of recruiting disciples. You are here to teach these new disciples well. I will come again in ten days and pick the two best seedlings to be my personal disciples."
Chen Yifei hurriedly saluted:
"Elder Dugu, don't worry, I will definitely teach the new disciples well and pick out the best seedlings for the elders."
The woman glanced at her and said lightly:
"Then I will trouble you."
After speaking, he left the training ground and walked away.
It wasn't until the woman left that Chen Yifei and the male deacon breathed a sigh of relief and got rid of the state of petty flattery.
Shen Lang also raised his hand at the right time to ask:
"Deacon Chen, who was that pretty big sister just now?"
Pretty big sister?
Chen Yifei laughed and scolded:
"You have a sweet mouth, kid. The one just now is my star perishing sect elder Duguxue, who is only 25 years old this year and is already a third-rank warrior. Since you are longing for martial arts and apprentices from the star perishing gate, you should know how many third-rank warriors are." Rare?
"Elder Duguxue is already one of the top martial artists in the world at such a young age. She wants to take in two direct disciples recently. If any of you perform well and are favored by Elder Dugu and accepted by her as a disciple, that would be a shame. It’s really smoking from the ancestral grave!”
When the children heard this, their eyes lit up immediately, and they were gearing up, full of energy.
Even Lin Yao, who was startled by Dugu Xue's piercing gaze just now, had a flushed face, her eyes sparkling with anticipation.
Shen Lang also put on an expectant look on his face, but he didn't think so in his heart.
He has read the information about Duguxue, the elder of Chuan Gong, the daughter of Dugu Wei, the great elder of the Xingfamen Sect.
Although he is indeed a third-rank martial artist, he is only a third-rank beginner who has condensed the "Life and Death Aperture".
At the age of 25, you can only enter the third rank...
Compared with his leader, Mr. Mu, he was simply reduced to scum in seconds.
Of course, objectively speaking, even if it's just an introduction to the third rank, as long as it's not a "pseudo third rank", it's a dragon and a phoenix among people.
After all, in the Great Eastern Chu with a population of more than 5 million, there are only more than 100 third-rank warriors with names and surnames on the surface.
Moreover, at Duguxue's age and state, if compared with Yan Tianying when she was young, she would be able to turn Yan Tianying into scum...
Chen Yifei encouraged the disciples with a few words, then got straight to the point, asked the disciples to line up, and began to teach them the basic boxing techniques of the Starfall Sect.
The basic boxing method of Xingdie Gate is called "Hundred Steps Serial Boxing".
There are ten moves in this boxing technique, and each move will take ten steps forward and backward, from the beginning to the end of the fight, you can take exactly one hundred steps.
Since it is a basic boxing method, of course it is mainly used for strength training of the ninth grade, which can comprehensively exercise the strength of legs, feet, back, shoulders and arms.
Basically, if you can hit the hundred-step serial fist from beginning to end without resting, and your steps are not disordered, then you can integrate all your strength into one, and strike an explosive fist that condenses your whole body's strength.
After introducing the "Hundred Steps Chain Boxing", Chen Yifei personally went off to demonstrate and teach the disciples the first move.
The first move of basic boxing is naturally the simplest. Chen Yifei first punched it in one go, and then dismantled the footwork of ten forward and backward moves one by one, as well as the knack of exerting force from legs, feet, back, shoulders and arms when stepping.
After this explanation, the children with the best savvy, such as Lin Yao, can already play decently. With a little correction from Chen Yifei, they can hit the first move perfectly.
As a fourth-rank martial artist, Shen Lang is also the king of routines. Of course, he can learn this kind of basic boxing that only exercises and does not kill the enemy.
He didn't hide his clumsiness either. Duguxue was coming to take in two direct disciples in ten days. Shen Lang really wanted to take this opportunity to get along with Duguxue, so he showed his true skills and performed better than Lin Yao. up a little bit.
Seeing that Shen Lang is not a brainless man with well-developed limbs, and his understanding is also very good, Chen Yifei nodded in relief, encouraged him and Lin Yao and other disciples who had learned the fastest, and gave a few words to the others who hadn't learned yet. His disciples demonstrated, dismantled the movements, and explained the essentials.
Seeing that Chen Yifei taught his disciples so hard, Shen Lang confirmed his own thoughts - there may be some problems with the style of the Star Perishing Sect, and some people in the Sect are even suspected of colluding with the Demon God, but not everyone is a bad person.
At least the deacon Chen Yifei who is in charge of the House of Commons is quite good.
But that Duguxue looked too cold and arrogant.
Moreover, her aloofness and arrogance were not the "fake arrogance" that Mu Qingxue pretended to avoid trouble.
With Shen Lang's current spiritual perception, of course it can be seen that that Elder Duguxue really has a kind of arrogance in his bones.
There is even a feeling that the little celestial master Lian Yunxiao is so defiant and despises everything.
I don't know what she is proud of - she only entered the third rank at the age of 25, how can she be arrogant and arrogant?
Well, she also has a father who is a third-rank master, maybe this is her cold and arrogant confidence?
The entry-level basic boxing technique is simple after all, and the first move is the foundation of the foundation. After a short period of time, all the children have basically learned it—yesterday, more than 1000 children signed up, and only [-] people were selected in the end. The rest of more than a thousand people were all deposed.
With such a strict selection rate, the disciples who can be selected will naturally not be far behind.
Even if comprehension can't be seen for a while, but comprehension is something that can only be truly distinguished when Qipin starts to practice breathing and breathing.
At the ninth and eighth ranks, most of the martial arts apprentices who were selected based on their physical and mental aptitudes were not much different.
After spending half an hour teaching all the disciples the first basic boxing moves, Chen Yifei and the male deacon hurried to the large training ground at the gate of the Lower Court, and continued to be busy with recruiting students.
Shen Lang and more than 50 disciples stayed on the practice field at the entrance of the Chuan Gong Hall in the lower courtyard to continue practicing martial arts, and two inner disciples were on the sidelines to supervise and guide them.
After practicing for about an hour, the sky was bright, and the two inner disciples took the new disciples to the dining hall for breakfast.
Disband after breakfast, and then until tomorrow morning, it is free time for activities.
Disciples can choose to practice moderately on their own. Both the outdoor practice field and the indoor practice room are open to disciples.
All kinds of body training equipment, except for some dangerous equipment that needs to be supervised by the teacher, are also allowed to be used by the disciples.
Of course, disciples can also choose to herd sheep and have fun, and play casually, and no one will scold them.
This is of course not that the disciples of the Star Perishing Sect are irresponsible and let the disciples fend for themselves.
This is actually a test.
Martial arts requires a high degree of self-discipline.
But in this world, children who are [-], [-] or [-] or [-] can already understand things very well, but if they can't even overcome their playfulness and self-discipline, after three years, they will most likely be kicked out. Go out of the wall, go back home or go wandering by yourself.
Only when both talent and self-discipline are paid equal attention can they be the real martial arts seedlings, worthy of the sect's careful cultivation.
Shen Lang, Lin Yao, Yan Yuwei, and Liang Fengfeng finished their meal at the same table, and walked out of the dining hall together.
Lin Yao asked him: "Junior Brother Shen, are you going to continue practicing martial arts on the training ground?"
Shen Lang shook his head:
"No more. I have already learned the first move. For body training, I have been lifting stone locks, carrying stone mills, and wrestling with bulls since I was a child. I have nothing to do with strength. I have to go back to school. Warriors are good at kung fu alone." It’s not enough, you have to study to open up your wits and grow your brains.”
Lin Yao was immediately in awe:
"Junior brother Shen is not only in good health, but also loves to read so much. In the future, he will be able to become a great general with both civil and military skills!"
Shen Lang laughed:
"Senior Sister Cheng said auspiciously, if I become a general in the future, I should ask Sister Lin to be my military advisor."
Lin Yao blinked in confusion:
"I heard that most of the military advisers in the army are Daoist monks. We warriors can also be military advisers?"
Yan Yuwei also said:
"That's right, Senior Sister Lin is still a girl. How can a girl be a military advisor?"
Liang Fengfeng said with a smile:
"You can't be a military adviser, but you can be the general's wife or Mrs. Hou Ye!"
Lin Yao blushed and raised her fist as if to strike:
"Talk nonsense, beg for beating!"
Liang Fengfeng quickly hid behind Yan Yuwei, giggling: "Senior sister, please forgive me, I'm just joking..."
"Joking is not allowed, Junior Brother Shen is only 12 years old, and I am only 13 years old."
"Then Junior Brother Shen and you will both grow up..."
"Hmph, why don't you be the general's wife and Mrs. Hou Ye?"
"I like white-faced niche!"
"Then why would I like the big black guy...Uh, I'm sorry Junior Brother Shen, I'm not saying you're ugly..."
"..."
On the top of Nine Immortals Mountain, the upper courtyard of Xingdie Gate.
Duguxue, the elder of Chuangong, is in charge of managing the true disciples in the upper courtyard, and teaches the disciples to solve their doubts.
At this time, she was walking on a bamboo forest path with her hands behind her back, expressionless, towards the Chuan Gong Hall of the upper courtyard.
As he was walking, he suddenly heard a man and a woman talking in the bamboo forest ahead.
"Senior Brother, have you heard? Mu Qingxue of the 'Ruthless Iron Judge' from the Shenhuntang, broke through the realm a month ago and was promoted to the second rank. Now he is No. 11 in the world in the second rank of the Stellar Qi Realm."
"Of course I've heard of this. I also heard that the day after Mu Qingxue broke through the realm, she beheaded Guo Kai, the master of the Yujing Temple and the 'Jade Jing Pufa Master' bestowed by the emperor! But Guo Kai As for the third rank of Taoism, it should be able to compete with the veteran second rank warriors, but unexpectedly, Mu Qingxue, a new second rank who has only broken through for a day, will be beheaded! The number one martial arts genius of the contemporary era really lives up to his reputation!"
"Miss Mu is really amazing! I heard that she is one of the most beautiful women in the capital... Beautiful and strong, how can there be such a perfect woman in the world? If I can have half of her, no, if I can do something, I will have no regrets in this life." ..."
Hearing this, Duguxue lowered her eyelids and walked over expressionlessly, and saw two young men and women wearing the training clothes of true disciples, cuddling together in the bamboo forest, looking like you and me.
Hearing the sound of Duguxue's deliberate footsteps, the two true disciples turned their heads and were startled. They separated quickly and clasped their fists at Duguxue:
"Meet Elder Dugu."
Dugu Xue stared at the two true disciples with an expressionless face and cold eyes, and said slowly:
"Whose apprentices are you?"
The male disciple was ashamed and said:
"Back to Elder Dugu, the two of us were only promoted to True Biography last year, and we haven't been admitted to the gate wall by any deacon or elder yet."
Duguxue snorted coldly:
"I was promoted as a true biography last year, but I haven't been favored by any deacon or elder yet. You two don't want to practice hard, but you want to talk about love and gossip here. My Starfall Sect doesn't need you. Disciple who doesn't want to make progress! Pack up my things immediately and get out of the upper courtyard!"
The pair of true disciples were shocked, as if struck by lightning, they looked at Duguxue in disbelief, never expecting that Elder Dugu would expel them from the Upper Court for such a trivial matter——
Star perishing sect disciples have practiced together with male and female disciples since they were in the lower courtyard. It is normal for them to develop feelings after getting along day and night for many years.
The Star Perishing Sect doesn't prohibit disciples from falling in love, as long as they don't delay their practice.
And the two of them can be promoted from the outer gate of the lower court, the inner gate of the atrium all the way to the true biography of the upper court, there must be no delay in their cultivation.
Among the true disciples of the Upper Court, there are many male and female disciples who are in love or even talking about marriage. The law enforcement elders have never cared about this kind of thing. Why is Duguxue, the elder of the teaching practice, suddenly so strict today and want to expel them from the Upper Court?
Dazed and full of grievances, the two just stared at Duguxue blankly, forgetting to even beg.
Duguxue looked at the two with cold eyes, suddenly raised her hand to grab, and took a picture of the authentic jade pendant hanging on the two people's belts from the air. With five fingers together, with a bang, she kneaded the two jade plaques into jade powder.
Then he flicked his sleeves again, and an invisible force slammed heavily on the chests of the two true disciples, causing the two of them to spurt blood from their mouths, they were thrown out, broke a piece of thick bamboo, and fell into the depths of the bamboo forest.
Only then did he snort coldly:
"After half an hour, if you are still in the upper court, the door will punish you!"
After all, he walked away with a cold face.
After a long time, in the depths of the bamboo forest, the sound of the male and female disciples coughing up blood and their intermittent wailing could be heard...
Duguxue returned to the Chuan Gong Hall of the upper courtyard, stepped into her residence, and as soon as she closed the door, her cold and pretty face instantly distorted, her forehead burst into veins, her eyes were ferocious, and she gritted her teeth and growled:
"Mu Qingxue! It's Mu Qingxue again! Why didn't that little bitch die when she hit the Baihui acupoint? Why was she able to break through the pass and be promoted to the second rank?"
While roaring and roaring, she raised her hand to grab a beautiful pillow, and tore it into pieces with a few sneers, and the fluff flew around.
After that, he still couldn't let go of his hatred, and took another copper censer with a crane beak, and tore it wildly with his hands, tearing the brass censer to pieces in a blink of an eye.
She held a fragment of the incense burner, exerted force with her claws, and kneaded it into various shapes like kneading dough, imagining that what she was pinching was Mu Qingxue's face, while twisting her livid face, she growled viciously:
"If I had known this, I should have crippled her on the spot back then!"
Duguxue knew Mu Qingxue.
Five years ago, Mu Qingxue was 17 years old, and he was only at the mid-stage of the fourth rank, and he was still one step away from the great success of the fourth rank.
And Duguxue was 20 years old, and she had been at the fourth rank for a long time, and she was already preparing to condense the "Life and Death Aperture" to attack the third rank.
In the spring of that year, she followed her father Duguwei to the Forbidden Army camp to pay a visit to the great general Baihuchan.
Bai Huchan liked her very much, and he gave her some tips on how to break through the third rank, and even after the third rank.
Afterwards, Bai Huchan took her father and daughter to a certain prince's banquet. On that day, because of a case involving that prince, Yan Tianying brought Mu Qingxue to the door to inquire. He proposes to challenge Mu Qingxue.
Mu Qingxue did not refuse.
Yan Tianying didn't stop him either.
So Duguxue fought Mu Qingxue on the training ground of the palace.
The Star Perishing Sect has been able to stand upright from the previous dynasty to the present, and it has produced third ranks from generation to generation, not only because of the accuracy of standing in line.
The exercises passed down by his sect are also the top magical skills in the world.
The fundamental skill "Xing Yuan Jue", the internal strength and true energy cultivated, no matter whether it is vigorous or pure, are far superior to those of the same realm warriors.
Although there are no extreme attributes such as ice, fire, sharpness, and poison, but both offense and defense are also very good.
And after the "Xing Yuan Jue" is cultivated to the level of true qi, the true qi will undergo mysterious changes, generating powerful suction and repulsion.
This suction and repulsion is used properly, and it can easily disrupt the opponent's footwork, movement, and movement rhythm during close combat.
At the completion of the fourth rank, the True Qi of Xing Yuan Jue can even create an invisible force field, not only can attract and repel force at will, making the opponent feel like falling into a turbulent seabed, making it difficult to control oneself, it can also absorb the opponent's True Qi, Supplementing one's own consumption makes the opponent weaker and weaker as the battle progresses, while oneself can always maintain a peak state.
The skill of "Xing Yuan Jue" also has a miraculous effect on tempering the body, making the body far stronger than that of the same fighters.
At that time, Duguxue was already a fourth-rank master, and was able to display all kinds of magic of "Xing Yuan Jue".
Moreover, not only is her realm beyond Mu Qingxue's, she is also three years older than Mu Qingxue, and has more combat experience.So in that fight, Duguxue only used a hundred moves to completely defeat Mu Qingxue.
At that time, she had the opportunity to severely injure and even destroy Mu Qingxue, but because Yan Tianying was watching the battle, Duguxue didn't dare to deal a ruthless blow, and only beat Mu Qingxue until she vomited a few mouthfuls of blood.
After winning the big victory, Duguxue taunted Mu Qingxue a few words in a strange manner. She originally planned that Mu Qingxue would never recover from a setback and was completely decadent, but she never expected...
At the end of the spring of the next year, when she finished half a year of seclusion, she finally succeeded in refining the "Life and Death Aperture", advanced to the third rank, and left the seclusion full of ambition, but she heard that Mu Qingxue had advanced to the third rank half a month earlier than her.
Since then, the name Mu Qingxue has become Duguxue's curse.
The number one martial arts genius of the present age, the new martial arts star who is expected to be the first rank, the heir to the leader of the heroes, the next catcher of the Shenhuntang...
Rumors about Mu Qingxue continued to circulate in the world, and her reputation became more and more famous.
People in the martial arts gradually change their expressions towards the "ruthless iron judge" Mu Qingxue, and talk about her amazing achievements and her unbelievable speed of cultivation with admiration and fear, but they have long forgotten that Mu Qingxue was once killed. Qingxue defeated Duguxue in public, who was once famous in the capital, was compared with Mu Qingxue by the martial arts of the capital for a long time, and was also called "Shuangxue Qishu".
To this day, Duguxue is still only a third-rank entry. Although the other acupoints have been condensed and their skills are much stronger than when they first entered the third-rank, the most important nine profound orifices are still only condensed "Life and Death Aperture". The second great profound orifice has not yet been condensed successfully.
As for Mu Qingxue, it seemed that a month ago, she broke through the life-and-death barrier of "Baihui Point" and was promoted to the second rank.
Her record has also become even more astonishing—last year in the desert of the Western Regions, she single-handedly pursued the remnants of the Dawei King Kong Temple, fought thousands of miles in the desert, and beheaded all the remnants of the Dawei King Kong Temple. Warriors, two fourth-rank Dharma practitioners.
At the beginning of this year, on the second day after he was promoted to the second rank, he beheaded the third rank Dharma repairer, Guo Kai, the master of Yujing Pufa.
What the two true disciples didn't know was that two days ago, Mu Qingxue had killed an evil dragon in Damangze whose strength was equivalent to that of a third-rank Dacheng warrior, and who was also capable of making waves and breathing poisonous mist.
Mu Qingxue's reputation is even more prestigious. Everyone thinks that she will definitely be promoted to the first rank, and will inherit Yan Tianying's mantle in the future, in charge of the God Catching Hall, and monitor the world's crimes.
But Duguxue has already disappeared from everyone.
For a long time, no one talked about her deeds of beating Mu Qingxue in public, and talked about her reputation as the "Shuangxue Qishu" alongside Mu Qingxue.
Even though the third-rank is also a dragon and phoenix among people, but after condensing the "Life and Death Aperture", a mere one has not been able to condense the second profound orifice for four years. The entry-level third-rank, who is suspected to have exhausted his potential, is considered among the third-rank warriors in the world. what?
Today, Duguxue can't hear the word "Mu Qingxue".
Every time she hears this name, it will make her jealous, and her regret is like ten thousand ants eating her heart.
Why……
Why didn't you dare to be more ruthless five years ago?
Martial arts competitions, serious injuries and even death are common occurrences. Since Mu Qingxue dared to accept her challenge, she should bear all the consequences.
And Yan Tianying, as the "leader of all heroes", the number one master in the world, and her father's peer, even if she beat Mu Qingxue to death, it is absolutely impossible for her to bully the small and hurt her. killer.
It's a pity, it's annoying, it's hateful!
Duguxue regretted her cowardice, but chose to ignore it. With Yan Tianying by her side, even if he would not bully the small with the big, but at critical moments, it is more than enough to protect her real and nameless personal disciples and successors.
After all, it was just a martial arts competition.
Serious consequences are allowed in the martial arts competition, but since it is not a life-and-death duel, then Yan Tianying rescues Mu Qingxue, and then makes Mu Qingxue admit defeat in public, admitting that her skills are inferior to others, and the audience has nothing to say.
Duguxue would not admit this.
She will only be annoyed and jealous.
In front of people, when she heard Mu Qingxue's name, she could force herself to hold her expression.
But when she got to the person and returned to her room, she let the jealousy rage, her expression was ferocious, and her face was beyond recognition.
She gritted her teeth, feeling that it was not enough to tear apart a copper incense burner, she took another jeweled sword from the air, kneaded it into a ball of steel, handed it to her mouth and bit it fiercely, as if she was biting Mu Qingxue's flesh and blood.
She chewed hard on the steel sword fragments until she chewed them into steel slag, and then spit them out with a puff, and the thick sandalwood incense case was riddled with holes like a rain of bullets.
After venting so fiercely for a while, she finally calmed down and returned to her cold and arrogant appearance.
"Yan Tianying worked hard for 30 years before he was promoted to the first rank. When he was 25 years old, it seemed that he had just been promoted to the fourth rank... A material like Yan Tianying can reach the first rank, and even become the invincible leader of all heroes in the world ', why can't I?"
Duguxue walked to the balcony facing the cliff, stood by the railing, let the mountain wind blow her long hair in black, and stared coldly at the courtyard at the foot of the mountain:
"So what about Mu Qingxue's momentary elation? I, Duguxue, will catch up sooner or later! This day is not too far away!"
At the foot of the mountain, the lower house.
Shen Lang bid farewell to the three junior sisters who went to the practice room to continue their studies, and returned to his own small courtyard alone.
Gu Hongye was wearing that black-bottomed flame-pattern tunic with a very slim figure, and the sleeves were rolled up, revealing her snow-white forearms. She sat on a small stool and vigorously scrubbed the underwear that Shen Lang had replaced with a washboard.
Hearing Shen Lang's footsteps, she raised her head and smiled, revealing her white teeth:
"Coming back so early?"
Shen Lang nodded:
"Well. I taught a basic boxing technique today, and then we need to learn by ourselves. I can't play with the children, so I just came back."
Gu Hongye blinked, teasingly said:
"Can't play with children? I saw you talking and laughing with those three little girls in the morning. Didn't you have a good time?"
Shen Lang also smiled:
"In our line of work, most of the things we see are heavy and dark, and it is inevitable that we will feel a little depressed. Occasionally, we can relax by talking, joking and playing with good, innocent children.
"The most important thing is, looking at their innocent, lively, innocent and lovely appearance, my heart will be full of motivation, and I will spontaneously have a kind of... the beautiful thought of protecting them."
Gu Hongye chuckled lightly:
"But you yourself are not a few years older than them."
Shen Lang laughed heartily:
"I'm different. I'm older by nature. Although I'm not really old, my mental age is much older than you and Muda people."
Gu Hongye chuckled:
"It's true. Your words and deeds will always make people forget your age unconsciously, and they can't help but regard you as a steady and reliable big brother."
Shen Lang teased: "Then call me brother, listen?"
Gu Hongye was really not shy, she glanced at him tactfully, and called out in a soft and charming tune.
"Good brother."
Shen Lang shivered, and quickly changed the subject:
"Then what, you don't need to wash your clothes so hard. I am already a fourth-rank martial artist, and there is no dirt on my body. The underwear is very clean. Don't rub it for me."
Gu Hongye smiled and said:
"I have to hang some clothes to dry, and put on a show. Otherwise, wouldn't it seem that I, a guard, are redundant?"
"That's true."
He looked left and right, but he couldn't see Xiao Zhao and the others, and he didn't even see the shadow of the little fish in the lotus pond, so he couldn't help asking:
"Where are my cat, rabbit, and Firecrow?"
Gu Hongye apologized:
"The cat caught a small red carp from the lotus pond, and ran out with it in its mouth. Then your firecrow opened the cage door by itself, and flew away with the rabbit in its paws. Sorry, I didn't watch them well, let your fish And the rabbit was eaten by the cat and the fire crow... How about I go to the town outside and buy you a red carp and a little white rabbit?"
Shen Lang shook his head:
"Forget it, they've played enough, they will come back naturally."
"But your fish and rabbits..."
"The cat and the bird will bring them back."
"what?"
Shen Lang smiled:
"Anyway, you don't have to worry about them, it's fine."
After finishing speaking, he walked into the house:
"I went back to meditate. What do you want for lunch? I'll cook."
"What's the point of that? You are the young master now..."
"Okay then, come and cook, and I'll just sit back and enjoy it."
"I'm just being polite..."
"Sorry, I don't know what it means to be polite."
Back in the house, Shen Lang first contacted Xiao Zhao and the others, and learned that they were playing in the forest outside, even the bones were gone, he shook his head helplessly, and told them not to play too crazy, save some energy for work at night reconnaissance.
However, Xiao Zhao and the others unanimously stated that their current physical strength is boundless, and no matter how crazy they are playing, they can't miss the business.
He had no choice but to tell them not to forget to come back for dinner, so he closed his eyes and began to meditate.
At noon, Lin Yao, Yan and Liang, two young senior sisters, had lunch in the dining hall, and when they passed by Shen Lang's small courtyard, they came in to say hello.Yan Yuwei was a little disappointed that she didn't see the kitten.Liang Fengfeng who couldn't see Little Fire Crow was also a little disappointed.Then the three young senior sisters declined Shen Lang's lunch invitation and went back to their residence.
The afternoon also passed in such a calm manner, the goblins who had played wildly all day didn't come back until dark, avoiding Gu Hongye, and quietly looking for Shen Lang who had already had dinner to eat.
"You have been playing in the woods all day, and you haven't bought any game?"
Xiao Zhao spoke eloquently:
"Wild game can only be tasted occasionally. The meat is too rough and there is no seasoning. It is actually not very delicious."
Xiaoyu nodded in agreement:
"Yes. Well-cooked food is better."
While combing the feathers, Xiaoye said leisurely:
"I can cook barbecue, but unfortunately I can't change the seasoning. The grilled game is tasteless. Let's eat it raw...we are all fairies now, how can we still drink blood?"
Xiao Zhao, who is not taboo about raw food, glanced at Xiao Ye subtly, feeling that this bird that always likes to stand on a high place, condescending and looking down on other monsters, has something in it, and it is yin and yang.
Xiaoya doesn't care:
"I'm already full... There are a lot of wild vegetables in the forest, and there are many delicious mushrooms. I also brought some spores back, and I plan to plant them in the space, and then make soup for Shen Lang."
"Xiaoya is so good..." Shen Lang touched Xiaoya's head with a smile, then looked at Xiaogu: "Xiaogu, you are not hungry, are you?"
[I thought, smell, taste. 】
So Shen Lang waved his hand, and took all the goblins into the space - he made the dinner by himself, and he had already prepared barbecue, pastries and other delicacies for the goblins.
Just as the goblins were feasting in the space, Gu Hongye knocked on the door and came in:
"I seemed to hear a voice inside just now? It seemed to be a child's voice? Who are you talking to?"
"I didn't talk to anyone, I was practicing ventriloquism."
Shen Lang said without changing his expression, currently only Mu Qingxue and the elder sister know about the existence of the goblins.Although Bai Shishi knew how terrifying Shen Lang's "little monsters" were, she really didn't know that they were little fairies who could talk and transform into shapes.
"Venturi?" Gu Hongye was dubious: "Can you still imitate the voice of a child?"
"That's right, I can imitate." Shen Lang said solemnly, "But don't expect me to perform for you, I only practice by myself when no one is around."
"Hehe, I really didn't want to hear your performance." Gu Hongye smiled at Chen Lang: "Practicing oral skills is not as good as practicing tongue skills. It is more practical."
She stuck out her tongue, but the tip of her tongue actually forked, and the tip of her tongue could make various flexible movements independently.
Shen Lang admired this ability, so he raised his thumb:
"Great!"
Gu Hongye chuckled lightly, with a subtle look in his eyes:
"It's even worse, you'll know later. By the way, the hot water is ready, go take a bath."
"it is good."
Shen Lang nodded, got up and left the bedroom, went downstairs to the bathroom in the backyard.
Pushing open the bathroom door, bypassing the screen, and coming to the big wooden barrel filled with hot water, Shen Lang took off his clothes, jumped into the barrel, and took a comfortable bath.
While it was soaking, the porter rang, and Gu Hongye walked around the screen with a small wooden basin filled with saponins and loofah pulp.
Shen Lang quickly unfolded the towel, placed it on the water in front of him, and asked:
"How did you come?"
Gu Hongye lowered her eyebrows, her cheeks were slightly red:
"I'm your bodyguard. I'm in charge of taking care of your daily life. Of course I'm here to serve you when you take a bath!"
"But isn't this just pretending?"
Gu Hongye smiled sweetly:
"Then let's stop pretending. I am the dowry maid who accompanied Miss Mu into the Shen family. You are my master. When you take a bath, I will serve you wholeheartedly."
Shen Lang was stunned for a moment, only felt that what she said made sense and left him speechless.
