Chapter '4 Ask for advice

When the yin gods of Yu Ci's three returned to the Fatian Secret Realm in a hurry, Zhang Yan was indeed outside the stone room where Yu Ci retreated, leaning on Yu Ci's gate, half asleep.The three Yin spirits entered, but he just raised his eyes and didn't express anything.

Uh, it seems that the comer is not good?

For a Dan-returning cultivator like Zhang Yan, the magic of the Fatian Secret Realm is almost nothing.Come and leave whenever you want, this is the privilege of the strong, even if Zhang Yan is infinitely close to depravity, it is the same.

The brothers from the Tu family felt a little scared of him, hurriedly called "Senior Brother Zhang", and then went away with their yin spirits. From the point of view of etiquette, it is somewhat impolite to meet people with a yin spirit.As for the flying sword in Zhang Yan's hand, the two brothers didn't dare to say anything, they could only pin their hopes on Yu Ci.

"Brother Zhang, please come in."

Yu Ci also opened the stone gate after returning to the orifices first, and invited Zhang Yan to enter.Speaking of which, apart from Li You and Meng Wei, it was the first time someone visited him in the mountain gate, and it was Zhang Yan, an opponent who used to gamble, and the place was in the Fatian Secret Realm, which felt very strange.So Yu Ci seemed extraordinarily polite:

"Brother Zhang took the time to come here, what's your business?"

Because it is a place of practice, sometimes you have to practice external skills and swordsmanship. The stone room is quite spacious, but there is no place for guests to sit down. Yu Ci was still thinking about whether to pour a glass of water, but Zhang Yan was already holding the flying sword in his hand. On the side, in the deeply sunken eye sockets, there is a light flashing.

"Junior Brother Yu, I have something to ask for today."

"Uh, I don't dare to take it seriously. Brother Zhang, please tell me something."

"Please ask Junior Brother Yu to gamble with me again."

"Aha?"

Yu Ci didn't react for a while, but when he saw Zhang Yan directly showing his sword, he understood Zhang Yan's plan and scratched his head for a while.Could it be that after this senior brother conceded defeat that day, he felt aggrieved in the past two days, so he came here to find his place?

If there is another fight, Yu Ci feels that he is going to be unlucky.

Dan-returning cultivators are alchemy-returning cultivators after all. Recently, there are quite a few alchemy-returning cultivators in Yu Ci's hands, and a few of them are stronger than Zhang Yan.It should be noted that none of them is in a perfect state and is fighting Yu Ci head-on.

Yu Ci has extremely strong self-confidence, but self-confidence alone is still difficult to penetrate the thick wall between Huan Dan and the cultivator.That night on Chutian Peak, Yu Ci attacked violently, finally forcing Zhang Yan to admit defeat, but until the end, didn't he not hurt half a hair of the opponent?

He quickly calculated all the reasons in his mind, and came to the conclusion that he was not half sure of winning.

Then, his answer rang in Zhang Yan's ears:

"Okay, let's do it again."

No matter how many or hundreds of reasons he could think of to lose, since someone challenged him face to face, and it wasn't a life-and-death vendetta, Yu Ci had no reason to refuse.As for the victory or defeat, that is not a decisive factor.

Zhang Yancai didn't care about the change in Yu Ci's heart, seeing that he agreed, the sharp sword in his hand emitted a circle of cold light with a "buzz", and the temperature in the room seemed to have reached the coldest winter in an instant, then he raised his sword and pointed at Yu Ci , softly said:

"Please!"

Yu Ci didn't hesitate at all, he also raised the Xi Guang Sword, the sword qi from both sides collided directly, and the originally empty stone room immediately seemed narrow.

"it's here?"

Yu Ciman spoke in a low voice, as if making a final confirmation, and the moment Zhang Yan nodded his head, he let out a sharp whistle, and the sword light penetrated from the middle palace.However, not much later than him, the other party's sword light also reached his neck, and both sides actually used the move of same end and death.

Seeing blood splattered on both sides, Yu Ci's figure blurred for a while, and he escaped from Zhang Yan's sword inexplicably. At the same time, Zhang Yan also turned around, breaking through the weakest point of his sword. , changed positions instantly.

There were several extremely weak cracking sounds in the stone room instantly, but Yu Ci and Zhang Yan didn't stop, the speed was even faster than before, and they crossed again in a blink of an eye, the sword qi hissed and collided, and the remaining energy splashed was as sharp as it was. The knife blade tore the limited furnishings in the stone room into pieces, even the volume of "Introduction to the Sword Classic" was not spared, and the pieces flew around like butterflies.

Such a fierce collision, even if the two of them are careful, it will inevitably startle the nearby people who are practicing in seclusion. Some people hurried to this side, but before they arrived, Yu Ci and Zhang Yan fought twice in a row, and the sword The aura became more and more sharp, Yu Ci even got a scar on his shoulder because he couldn't stop the opponent's bursting sword aura.

Then, Zhang Yan's body exploded.

There was a "bang", just like when he hit the cliff that night, when Zhang Yan's protective body exploded, Yu Ci's back hit the wall of the stone room firmly, and the violent shock shook his internal organs , even if he was not injured, he was very sad and didn't want to stand up for a while.

The light dimmed suddenly, but Zhang Yan walked up to him and looked down at him.Yu Ci grinned and was about to speak when a hand stretched out in front of him.Yu Ci was stunned for a moment, then stretched out his hand and stood up with strength.At this time, the muscles on Zhang Yanqingbai's face moved slightly, and he spoke in a low and clear voice:

"Taking chestnuts from the fire is wonderful!"

There is no doubt that this is a compliment, and there will be more in the back: "In terms of grasping the changes of key qi mechanisms, it is excellent. In this regard, I am not as good as you, not once or twice, but every time. But the most powerful It's your guts, you're taking risks every time, life and death are only a thin line, you can still grasp the subtle changes without any distortion, no wonder you can cut off my collar that day, if you and I are cultivated It's the same, or you can change a sharp weapon..."

After talking too much, Zhang Yan's face also flushed with blood.After hearing what he said, Yu Ci glanced at Xi Guangjian, the quality of this sword presented by Wanlingmen is really average.The sword, especially the sword he uses for close combat, is different from the flying sword and sword pellets that control the sword.

However, recently, Yu Ci put in a lot of effort on "The General Theory of the Sword of Ruining", and his eyes widened, and he said, "If it wasn't for the fact that the secret room is so small, and it is really unfolded by the brother with the sword, the rainbow is so bright, I'm afraid I won't be able to get close to it for a mile." Inside, no matter how fine the qi mechanism is, what's the use of it?"

Zhang Yan shook his head and said: "Junior brother is not a person who underestimates himself, why bother to be too polite? Besides, swordsmanship is already at the end, and what I praise is the way of thinking of junior brother - courage, determination, judgment, combined into one, and risk-taking Ruo Pingdi, today I finally know that what my junior brother said that night is indeed not bad, good at gambling, good at gambling, I admire it!"

Yu Ci didn't know whether to laugh or cry for a moment, he didn't believe Zhang Yan didn't know that he was talking nonsense that day, and was thinking about how to respond, when Zhang Yan bowed with his sword in his arms, and bowed down to him:

"Junior Brother Yu, please teach me this kind of gambling."

"Uh?"

Yu Ci opened his eyes wide, but before he could figure out how the song came out, there was a knock at the door.

"Senior brother Zhang, you..." The boss of the Tu family pushed the door open and came in, just seeing this scene, he was dumbfounded on the spot.

Zhang Yan still bowed and did not move, but Tu Rilun felt like his face was pricked by needles, and the regret in his heart... After all, he still couldn't let go of the flying sword. My brothers came in a hurry.At that time, Yu Ci and Zhang Yan were fighting, and the momentum was not small, attracting most of the people in the Fatian Secret Realm, but the stone room was tightly closed, and no one knew what happened inside.

Finally, when it subsided, no one came out from inside, everyone was afraid of accidents, coupled with other people's instigation, Tu Rilun relied on his "friendship" with Yu Ci to push open the stone door, but he didn't want to face him. Encountered this kind of thing.

"Brother Zhang bowed his head to that kid..."

Although this senior brother Zhang is addicted to gambling to the point of no cure, he looks half-dead all day long, but his status is there, and he can do whatever he wants in private, but now that he sees it, he feels a little nervous. Can there be no pimples?

Bad, bad, bad...Tu Rilun's mind was in a mess, and he stayed at the door, not knowing whether to advance or retreat.

Yu Ci's reaction was still quick, and he knew that if he continued to dawdle, everyone's faces would be ugly, so he quickly reached out and lifted Zhang Yan up: "Senior Brother Zhang, why do you do this? It's only natural for you and my brothers to learn skills. ..."

Yu Ci gave Tu Rilun a wink as he spoke endless polite words.After all, that boy was not stupid enough to go home, he called "My sword" with a divine will, retracted the flying sword that had been blown to the corner by the sword wind, and then closed the stone door with a bang, again isolating the inside and outside world.

Zhang Yan didn't quarrel with Yu Ci on etiquette either, he straightened up, his sunken eye sockets seemed to be on fire, glowing brightly: "Junior Brother Yu, I need this!"

What he said contained a heavy force that Yu Ci had never seen in him.

At this moment, Yu Ci still didn't know the true meaning of his words, but nodded in a strange way.

After nodding, Yu Ci had an inexplicable feeling that the man in front of him seemed to want to make a huge turn, and he was holding the rudder on one side, while the other half...Yu Ci shook his head and returned the Xi Guang Sword sheath.

Honestly, it feels weird.
