The melon-eating swordsman in the ancient dragon world.

Chapter 544: The Twin Gods of Thunder and Lightning
Wugui Villa and Dongyou Sword Technique are taken from the line "The cave is so bright and secluded, and it is so pure and spotless" in "The Moon Over Mirror Lake" by Lu Zhi of the Tang Dynasty.

It's a formal sword technique.

The sword technique also draws on the artistic conception of the poem: "The moon is empty, the lake is soft and calm, the light is clear and motionless, the void is bright and empty like the sky." It intersects the real and the imaginary, is soft and quiet, hides its sharpness in the ordinary, and hears thunder in the silence.

The Lian family's most famous hidden sword is the essence of this martial arts tradition.

Therefore, the Lian family's swordsmanship is also very beautiful. In the original novel, although Yang Kaitai did not know the essence of the Lian family's swordsmanship, he described it as a warm moon and spring breeze, which is actually very appropriate.

Lian Chengbi did not show off his other sword skills, but just slowly danced out the Dongyou sword technique, which was enough to outline an image of a free and easy, elegant and gentle peerless young man.

Shen Bijun sipped the fish soup while watching the sword dance. The current scene and the picture in her mind gradually contrasted and merged. It felt even better than she had imagined. She was mesmerized for a moment.

After a moment, Lian Chengbi turned his hand back and put away the sword.

"Good swordsmanship!"

"Mr. Lian is really elegant!"

"Even if you are wearing coarse clothes, it is hard to hide your elegance!"

Shen Bijun was a little unhappy when she was interrupted, but she did not show it, because the other party's tone was indeed full of praise, and from the words, it seemed that the other party knew her husband.

Lian Chengbi looked at a small boat that was turning out from the side.

Of course he had already discovered the boat, but the other party was still far away, so he didn't pay attention to it. Unexpectedly, the other party approached him when he put away his sword.

There were two people standing at the bow of the boat.

One is tall, one is short; one is strong, one is thin.

The tall man had a strong body and a face as red as the bottom of a pot. In his hand he held an iron spear that was three feet longer than his body.

The shorter one was thin and skinny, with a sallow complexion, and a pair of outer sect weapons that looked like chisels hung on his waist.

Lian Chengbi had an impression of these two people in his mind. After all, they were also martial arts heroes who made a living around Taihu Lake. They were neighbors of Wugui Villa. Although they came from humble backgrounds, they were well-known for their chivalry.

"So they are the Thunder Gods." Lian Chengbi said with a calm smile, "Didn't you two go to Hongze Lake to visit friends? A few days ago, news came back that you two had broken through the black clouds and killed two evil spirits with one spear."

These two people are none other than Taihu Lake Thunder God Lei Mantang and Yishan Longguang.

In the original novel, he was under the command of Tianzong, and was instructed by the young master to frame Xiao Shiyilang in front of Shen Bijun. Then one was killed by Xiao Shiyilang, and the other was killed by the young master.

Hearing Lian Chengbi's praise, Lei Mantang and Long Guang were both honored.

The tall Long Guang bowed and smiled, "Mr. Lian, I don't deserve your praise. In Mr. Lian's eyes, calling the Black Cloud Twins of Black Cloud Village just chickens and clay dogs is a compliment."

Shen Bijun was slightly stunned. She heard the voices of two people just now, one as loud as a bell, the other gentle and elegant. She originally thought that the tall man was the one with a rough voice, but she didn't expect the fact to be the opposite.

As expected, the short Lei Mantang said in a rough voice, "It's a pity that we only got back this morning and missed the wedding of Mr. Lian and Mrs. Lian. It's a pity."

"Not a pity." Lian Chengbi shook his head.

Lei Mantang and Long Guang looked at Lian Chengbi curiously.

Lian Chengbi smiled slightly, "If you were there last night, you would still be drunk at home, how could you have seen me dancing with a sword?"

This may sound a bit proud, but Lian Chengbi has the confidence to do so. Even his original body's martial arts were among the best in Jiangnan, and he was number one among the six gentlemen in the martial arts world.

The important thing is that Lian Chengbi rarely takes action, so it is indeed an honor to see him dance with the sword. "Not bad! Not bad!"

"Exactly! Exactly!"

Lei Mantang and Long Guang could only nod their heads repeatedly. Seeing that Lian Chengbi had no intention of refusing, they stopped the boat at the shore, stepped ashore, and bowed to Shen Bijun together, "Greetings, Madam Lian!"

Shen Bijun bowed and nodded slightly, returning the greeting gracefully and with a noble demeanor.

"Mr. Lian is magnanimous and elegant, and Mrs. Lian is otherworldly and elegant. The two of you are truly a perfect match. There hasn't been a couple as divine as you two in the martial arts world in hundreds of years." Long Guang has read a lot of books and speaks in an elegant manner.

Lei Mantang said to Lian Chengbi, "But Mr. Lian, please be careful in the next few days. At least don't let Madam Lian be alone."

Looking at the sky, Lian Chengbi asked, "It's almost time for dinner, and you two are still sailing on Lake Tai. What happened?"

"The traitor of the Huainan Eagle Claw Sect, the chief of the 28 camps in Hongze Lake, the Golden Roc Hand Wang Zhen, has arrived at Taihu Lake. We are looking for his whereabouts."

Lei Mantang said, "Although he came here on the run, he was not injured. This man has done many evil things, and even the young master has to be concerned about him."

Long Guang said, "This man is from the Huainan Wang family branch. He is gifted and has great ambitions. If the Wang family is an eagle, then he is the golden-winged Roc. He calls himself the Golden Roc Hand, but his skills are indeed amazing. The Wang family cannot clean up the mess, so they can only let him go."

Lian Chengbi raised his eyebrows, "There are many bandits in the 28 camps of Hongze Lake. I heard that the big camp is impregnable. Who is the one who attacked?"

Lei Mantang and Long Guang looked at each other and replied, "Those pirates were too bold. They robbed the family of the Taizhou prefect, who is the in-law of the Hangzhou general..."

Lian Chengbi nodded. General Hangzhou was Xu Qingteng's father, and Xu Qingteng was one of the Six Gentlemen of the Wulin world and the most beloved disciple of the leader of the Wudang sect.

The Hongze Lake bandits angered the Wudang Clan, so shouldn't they be killed?
When you are in the underworld, you have to check the spider-web-like network of relationships. If you are not strong enough and offend someone, it can be fatal in a matter of minutes.

“The Wudang Sect sent out a call for help, and my brothers happened to be visiting friends there, so we joined in the fun and took action together. We wiped out the Black Cloud Twin Devils of the Black Cloud Village and earned some fame.” Long Guang said with a smile.

"The Twenty-Eight Villages of Hongze Lake have been a nuisance for a long time, and the Black Cloud Twins are notorious. The two of you took action to eliminate evil, which is a chivalrous act. How can it be said that you earned some fame?" Lian Chengbi said with a smile.

"Mild praise! Absurd praise!"

"Excuse me! Excuse me!"

Lian Chengbi's reputation spread far and wide, and he personally praised him. The faces of the Thunder and Lightning Gods were also lit up. Although they were being modest in their words, they looked very proud.

"Although we destroyed the 28 villages of Hongze Lake, we failed to capture Wang Zhen, and he escaped all the way south."

Lei Mantang said, "My brothers and I happened to be from Taihu Lake, so we followed him here. We heard that he appeared along the shore of Taihu Lake a few days ago, so we sailed here to see if we could catch him."

"I didn't expect to see Master Lian dancing with a sword. It really opened our eyes." Long Guang added.

The two men exchanged a few words of praise with Lian Chengbi Business, then tactfully returned to the boat and sailed away from the shore.

After watching the two leave, Shen Bijun said with some concern, "A powerful pirate has escaped here. I don't know if he will cause trouble to the village."

Lian Chengbi shook his head and smiled, "I don't know whether the Thunder Gods are here to capture Jin Pengshou, or whether they can defeat him, but I know that the leader of the Hongze Lake Water Village is definitely not here to escape."

"Why?" Shen Bijun asked.

Lian Chengbi said calmly, "Because the south of Taihu Lake is Hangzhou."
