Careerist in Qin Dynasty

Chapter 121 Wins Two
In Jicheng, the power of the Prince's Mansion expanded widely.

Yan Chunjun's remaining forces clung to the court, while Lu Qiuge shrank its forces and camped in the rivers and lakes. Both sides left ample space for Prince Dan.

But from another perspective: King Yan Xi is the real master behind Yan Chunjun's remaining forces.Lu Qiuge is backed by a farmer's family, and as a disciple of the Mohist family, Yan Dan has to give them some face if he doesn't want to become enemies with the farmer's family.

Therefore, in terms of depth, Prince Pill still needs a lot of time to accumulate.

Fortunately, through their marriage to Yan Yi, they could slowly penetrate into the army.Due to being too busy, Ju Wudu didn't come to the Prince's Mansion for several days.

Late at night and early in the morning, Yan Dan was sitting in a cool pavilion in the garden of the mansion, holding the princess Yan Yun he had married in his arms. When everything in reality was temporarily calm, he began to think wildly:
"Since Juzi rescued Thief Zhi from her, she has never appeared again."

"Even with all the arrangements and precautions on the wedding day, she still didn't show up."

"The giant went back to seclusion in the forbidden area of ​​​​the government city and has not come out for several months. Several commanders are very worried."

"I don't know if there has been a war between Qin and Han. The Korean general Wei Zhuang is a disciple of Guigu. I hope he can become Korea's 'Li Mu'!"

"As long as the Qin army fails one after another and reveals its weakness, all countries may not be able to seize the opportunity to join forces again."

"Your Highness, Jing Ke of the Mo family came to visit and said there was something urgent!"

The guard's report in the middle of the night interrupted Yan Dan's thoughts. Before he could answer, Yan Yun stood up in his arms, bowed respectfully to him, and asked to leave.

She is worthy of being the daughter of former general Yan Xing. She is well-educated and knows how to advance and retreat. Yan Yi will definitely not be able to teach her. The teacher's arrangement is indeed correct.

Yan Dan's serious face showed a rare smile and nodded in agreement.

Not long after the princess retreated, Jing Ke was brought up.

"Your Highness, something may have happened to the great prince!"

"what!"

Jing Ke's words made Yan Dan's face stiffen, and then he smelled a smell of 'opportunity'
On the fifth floor underground of the Daliang City Sword Hall, Wei Bao was defeated by Zhou Shi after he fought hard, and was defeated by Zhou Shi.

"Hmph!" The Duke of Wei snorted coldly. He could no longer maintain his good manners. Instead of picking up the sword, he smashed the scabbard on the stage and left the sword hall with a dark face.

Two other strong men stepped onto the sword competition platform. One picked up the sword and the other picked up the scabbard. They followed Wei Bao who left with their heads held high.

Zhou Shi didn't say anything about this, and took advantage of this period of time when no one was on stage to accelerate and build up momentum to make up for the losses just now.

Seeing this, Ziwu was about to turn his head to look at the hall master, when he found that he was already empty.Looking back at the stage, the hall master was indeed standing opposite the ranger Zhou Shi.

Theoretically speaking, the later the market is on the market, the weaker the sword momentum it has prepared in advance will be.Therefore, it is definitely easiest to be the tenth man after winning nine consecutive games in the weekly market.

But when he was confident that he could defeat his opponent, Lu Wei always insisted on being more upright and upright, the better.

"Farmer Lu Wei, please give me some advice."

As soon as the Swallowing Sea Sword was unsheathed, a turbulent feeling filled the entire sword competition arena, and the new sword energy was no worse than the opponent's charged sword power.

This caused everyone in the audience to be surprised. At the same time, Zhou Shi looked even more solemn, his opponent's strength was terrifying!
He stared at the sword in Lu Wei's hand, which looked like an ordinary sword at first glance, and sighed in his heart: Why do you all have famous swords, why are you still competing with us poor rangers for the 'Long Claw'?
The overall structure of the fifth floor of the sword hall is a sword competition platform in the center. There are tables and chairs in the east and west directions where spectators can rest.

The front seat in the south allows swordsmen to stand and watch the competition on the platform, and the back is a mobile pavilion that comes down from the ground.

As for the north direction, there is a wooden wall.Behind the wall, there is a lot of human atmosphere in the richly decorated hall and house.
Sitting inside was the master behind the sword hall: Lord Ningling Wei Jiu.

After pouring a cup of hot tea, he retreated to the other side and sat down, counting down silently in his mind: three, two, one
There was a clang, and as expected, the door to the secret observation room was pushed open. Wei Bao came in angrily and sat down. He picked up the tea that had just been poured on the table, drank it all in one gulp, and smashed the small white porcelain cup on the table. on the ground.

Debris splashed all over the floor
"Second brother, if you lose, you lose!"

After Wei Jiuyun said this calmly, he motioned to the maid beside him to kneel down and clean the floor with silk.

"Brother, that Zhou Shi was cheating at all. He prepared his sword power in advance! There was no time for him to build up his sword power in the competition!" Wei Bao was angrily, picked up an empty cup and smashed it hard again.

"You are a child of the royal family, not a wanderer. You should hold yourself to the standards of the royal family."

Wei Jiu shook his head, stood up personally and took away all the teapots and remaining cups in front of Wei Bao to prevent him from smashing them again:
"Don't regard Zhou Shi as your opponent. He has good strength. Although his status is low, he can be conquered as a subordinate."

"Your Majesty, someone has come to the stage to challenge Zhou Shi!"

The wooden wall that is separated from the sword competition platform is densely covered with many small holes. Seven or eight maids kneel, sit or stand, with their eyes on it, reporting the situation on the stage to the people in the room.

"The challenger reported his name as 'Lu Wei'"

"The master of Gonggong Hall in the farmhouse, his name is Lu Wei."

A maid standing in a row of bookshelves on the left side of the room, who was dressed in a slightly more gorgeous dress, took down a bamboo slip from the top shelf of the bookshelf marked "Farmhouse":

"Lu Wei, 18 years old, from Zhao country."

"He is the most outstanding disciple among the rising generation of farmers."

"13 years old. After something happened to the heir of Lu Qiu Pavilion, he temporarily took charge of Lu Qiu Pavilion."

"At the age of 14, he inherited the position of general manager after the previous two general managers of Gonggongtang were deposed and killed one after another."

"At the age of 17, he succeeded the leader of Gonggong Hall after he was assassinated." "The martial arts he learned is unknown, but his swordsmanship is superb. At last year's farmers' autumn harvest meeting, he defeated the famous Chi You in twenty rounds. The majestic master Tian Hu.”

It is not difficult to find out several major events in Hall Master Lu's career. Wei Jiu and Wei Bao looked at each other in confusion:

"How can such a person still hold power in a farm?" Wei Bao chuckled: "Whoever stands in front of Lu Wei will soon get into trouble. Is the farm hero a fool? The murderer is too obvious!"

He stood up, swept away the obstructive maids, stood in front of the small hole in the wooden wall, and looked outside: "Let me see the strength of such an ambitious guy!"

On the sword competition stage, Zhou Shi's preparation was still going on. He was waiting for his opponent to attack first, and then he would use his long-pressed sword power to counterattack as quickly as possible!

However, Hall Master Lu was not in a hurry. Instead, he smiled and watched him gain momentum.The Swallowing Sea Sword stood sideways and motionless.

The sword power on one side was condensing, and on the other side the sword energy was expanding. Among the two, it was Zhou Shi who finally lost his composure!
There is a limit to his momentum. Once he reaches the limit, he must output it and cannot wait for the opportunity to press and counterattack.

There is no way to dodge a blow that relies solely on the strength of the sword, without any skills, on this small sword competition stage, so you can only resist it.

In the last match against Wei Bao, Zhou Shi won in this way by forcing his opponent to use his clever snake-breaking sword to fight him head-on.

Lu Wei looked at the tip of the sword that was coming towards him, raised the Swallowing Sea Sword horizontally, and blocked it lightly with the broad blade of the sword. He only heard a clang, and when the two swords collided, the sword energy overflowed and rolled around.

But before the two sword styles could decide the winner, the sword itself had already decided the winner: there was an unusual snapping sound on the field, and the tip of the mortal sword in Zhou Wen's hand actually cracked and shattered!

It is just a very ordinary standard long sword. The tip of the sword is the sharpest point and the most fragile point.

Under the internal and external destruction of Zhou Shi's own condensed sword power and the sword energy of the Swallowing Sea Sword, the intersection of the two swords was constantly being attacked by small invisible air waves.
Lu Wei's eyes were filled with a faint smile, and he pushed the sword forward with his right hand, Zheng!The sword in Zhou Shi's hand completely shattered.

Then, the Swallowing Sea Sword swung towards Zhou Shi's neck and stopped within an inch of his neck.

The half of the broken sword that Zhou Shi still held in his hand let go and fell to the ground, his pupils filled with disbelief: He never imagined that he would lose in such a way.

The sword is clearly undefeated
"I lose. If the sword in my hand is the same as yours, I won't lose." Zhou Shi was very unwilling.

"You can't even perfectly master the sword you already have in your hand, and you chose a way to attack that it can't bear." The hall leader used the foil sword to retract the scabbard and turned around:
"The sword power that has been charged to the limit cannot even defeat my most ordinary sword energy. Are you still thinking of making excuses for failure?"

"You should step down."

Zhou Shi was lonely and prepared to leave the sword hall just like Wei Bao. But just after he returned to the ground, a maid suddenly stopped him: "My master would like to invite you to the backstage for a chat."

"Who is your master?" Zhou Shi followed the maid with a heavy heart. After walking down the stairs for a long time, he still took the initiative to ask.

"You will see me soon." The maid suddenly stopped, stepped aside, and made way for a door: "Please come in."

Who owns the sword hall is a secret but not a secret in Daliang City: everyone knows that it is a royal property of the King of Wei, but no one knows which prince is in charge of it.

Pushing the door open and stepping in, Zhou Shi looked at Wei Bao, whom he had won in the previous game, smiling at him.

In front of him, on a bronze sword stand, was a long sword with a hilt engraved with a flying bird pattern. The blade was slender and sharp.
------

After defeating Zhou Shi, several swordsmen jumped up one after another. Their eyes were shining. It was not because they thought Lu Wei was easy to bully, but because they thought he was too strong that they wanted to compete with him.

A strong opponent can be called a second 'lover' for a true swordsman besides the sword in his hand.

In Shengzhou City, the hall master took advantage of the opponent's best sword power and destroyed his sword, with the purpose of destroying his confidence.

As for the remaining challengers, he was also very attentive: he used the Youdie Sword Technique, the Fenglin Sword Technique, and the Whale Drinking Sword Technique all once, and convinced all the challengers with his sword skills.

After successfully obtaining the long sword, without further delay, Hall Master Lu took Ziwu and left the sword hall.

"The master of the hall wanted to conquer Zhou Shi, so he deliberately insulted him?"

Ziwu saw Lu Wei playing with the long sword in his hand, and asked a question when no one was paying attention.

"That's right, his strength is not inferior to yours." Hall Master Lu nodded and admitted: "After I broke his sword, I gave it to him with the long hairpin that he cherished so much. I changed my words a little, and I think Zhou Shi won't refuse."

Not knowing that their target had been reached first, the two returned to the inn where they stayed to rest. After lunch the next day, they went to the sword hall together again.

But there were some minor twists and turns in the sword hall today. The problem was not that big. It was just that the sword hall was demolished.
Bang, a corpse was thrown out of the building and stopped at the feet of the astonished hall master.

"Hmph, with such little strength, you still have the nerve to call yourself a 'Sword Hall'!"

The voice of the troublemaker sounded familiar to Lu Wei, and he was sure that he had heard the voice's owner somewhere before.

Suddenly, the trouble continued, and the supporting pillar of the sword hall was cut into two parts with a giant sword.The hilt of the giant sword was connected by an iron chain, and it was swung like a meteor hammer.

Under such a violent storm, the two-story building collapsed
The figure standing in the ruins no longer needs to be carefully identified: it is the deposed former farmer Kuei Hall leader: Chen Sheng!

The giant sword in his hand: Giant Que!

At a glance, Chen Sheng's exposed upper body and face were clearly engraved with some words.
Lu Wei, who had excellent eyesight, examined it carefully and found that some of the inscriptions were from Zhao and some were from Korea.

He has been on death row in two countries. In other words, at this stage, he is not called Shengqi but Sheng[-]?

Maybe it will be three wins soon.
Pulling the eager Ziwu back to the back of the crowd of onlookers.At this time, several groups of Daliang City guards arrived at the scene holding Chang Ge and surrounded Chen Sheng on the ruins.

The master of the hall knows that Chen Sheng will definitely be caught by these Wei soldiers today and put into Wei death row.
But he will escape again soon!
This is the deliberate pursuit of this madman who wants to find out the whereabouts of his brother.
