June Fourth, drifting thousands of miles to understand life, moving to hundreds of cities and experiencing various situations(1/2)
That night, the three of them did not go back to the inn. They just found a secluded place to set up a tent in the woods beside the official road and rested for the night. The next day, before dawn, Zheng Lingxiao heard a loud noise.
There were very light footsteps, and there were only a few people, only seven or eight, but it could be judged that they were all masters.
After unfolding the power of the soul, Zheng Lingxiao's body couldn't help but tremble. There were actually ten people coming, including two old men who walked without making a sound at all. The auras unintentionally emanating from these two people were very powerful.
Compared with the aura of the sword spirit he felt in Ouyang Changkong's garden that day, he secretly estimated the strength compared with theirs. Zheng Lingxiao felt that he was not even half sure of winning.
The hope of saving one's life was very slim.
"Who are these two people? Are they from the City Lord's Mansion? How can Ouyang Changkong mobilize such powerful people? If so, it will be difficult for my plan to be realized!" Zheng Lingxiao thought secretly in his heart.
Perhaps they did not care about the safety of this place. The group of people did not release the power of their souls to investigate, nor did they care about the surrounding situation. They just walked quickly past the three of them, the distance was only fifty meters.
Look.
After the group of people had gone far, Zheng Lingxiao woke up the first brother and the two, and said softly: "We can't think about anything else now. We must leave the confines of Fengpu City as soon as possible. I didn't expect that Ouyang Changkong would be like this.
With the power, I can mobilize sword spirits of level three or above. I don’t even have the ability to compete with people of that level. Once discovered, we will die!" Next, Zheng Lingxiao explained what had just happened.
Said it once.
The two were shocked when they heard this. The first brother didn't talk nonsense and immediately started to pack things. However, Wenren Qiaoer frowned and said: "Didn't you say that if we leave, we might bring trouble to Black Wind City?
So??????"
Brother No.1 said directly: "If we don't leave, all three of us will die. We only need to go to other big cities and then reveal some information about where we are. In this way, Ouyang Changkong will not touch us for the time being."
It’s Black Wind City!”
Zheng Lingxiao smiled and said: "You don't have to worry so much. Even if we don't leak any information, Ouyang Changkong won't be able to find anyone in Black Wind City in a short period of time. However, you reminded me that we can't make them feel too good."
, hum, Ouyang Changkong, right? Then let’s have a good time.”
An hour later, in the city lord's palace of the city that Zheng Lingxiao and the others left, two old men, one black and one white, were sitting in high positions. Eight people with seven-level swordsman or above were standing around them. However, the city lord was fighting below, his head covered with hair.
sweat.
The old man in black robe said: "You mean you received the order yesterday to arrest the person the young master wanted, but in the end you failed?"
"Yes, sir, there was a man holding the young master's token yesterday." Then the city lord recounted what happened yesterday.
After hearing this, the old man in white robe couldn't help but frowned and said, "Since they were not found in the inn, have you launched a city-wide search?"
"Yes, sir, I ordered no one to leave the city at that time, and dispatched troops to conduct a large-scale inspection of the entire city. However, unfortunately, those three people were not found at all, and even the person who gave us the order did not look at it.
arrive."
With a bang, the old man in black robe smashed the coffee table next to him with a slap, and shouted: "Idiot, if you can make people run away like this, what's the use of taking you!"
The city lord didn't dare to refute at all, he just stood there obediently, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead. After a while, the old man in white robe said calmly: "Forget it, junior brother, we can't blame them all. Haha, we have to chase
These little guys are not ordinary people, huh, it seems they have been gone for a long time, we can't delay here, otherwise, we will lose them."
The old man in black robe also pondered for a moment and said: "Senior Brother, are you saying that they have already gone in the direction of Tianshui City? Then we have to chase them quickly, otherwise, those three treacherous and cunning little guys are likely to disappear in our
in sight."
Without saying anything else, they blackmailed the poor city lord, and the group of people rushed in the direction of Tianshui City.
Huoyun City is a medium-sized city 1,300 miles away from Fengpu City. In terms of area, it is not much worse than Fengpu City. Its prosperity is much higher than that of Black Wind City, because
It is a medium-sized city close to the border, and there are countless merchants coming and going from here.
Three young men were walking in the city with two level four demon wolves. Although they attracted some attention, they did not cause any fuss, exclamations, or onlookers. In this world, powerful swordsmen bring their own
It is not unusual for pet beasts to walk on the streets of the city. Even ordinary people are accustomed to these monsters.
Without staying too long in the city, the three of them bought good horses and prepared to pass directly through the city and head south. However, at this moment, there was a sudden roar of gongs and drums, attracting everyone's attention.
All the force was attracted to it.
The three of them looked at each other, and Wenren Qiaoer showed a hopeful look and said, "How about we go take a look, maybe there is something new. Anyway, Ouyang Changkong doesn't know our whereabouts, as long as we don't cause trouble.
Son, there should be no problem."
Brother Yi didn't express anything, but everyone could see the word "expectation" on his face. Zheng Lingxiao thought about it, chuckled and said: "Don't we want Ouyang Changkong to know our news? Then what happens next?"
We need to make some noise, otherwise it won't be good if he gets too lonely."
Wenren Qiaoer didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, but Zheng Lingxiao didn't explain it. He just followed the direction of the crowd and came to the big square in the center of the city. A big red arena had been set up here.
Three people are already sitting on the high platform. In the middle is a bearded man in his fifties who looks very elegant. On the left is a woman in gorgeous clothes. Although the years have left some traces in the corners of her eyes.
, but she looks pretty dazzling. On the right is a girl, wearing a bright red wedding robe, about twenty years old, dressed very beautifully, with a pair of big black eyes that look very smart, and she is holding a
Holding a red hydrangea as big as a person's head, he was looking at everyone who came with a smile, and seemed very happy.
It was almost noon, when people were already crowding around, a girl dressed as a maid jumped up to the center of the ring, struck the gong in her hand hard, and made a loud bang, suppressing all the comments in the surroundings.
Then he said: "Dear fellow citizens of Huoyun City and all the heroes passing by, this maid is Bai Ling, the personal maid of the city lord's lady. As we all know, my city lord has no direct heirs, only such a daughter, and today this one is my family
The lady’s twentieth birthday is also the day when the Lord of the City recruits a son-in-law for her. However, my lady has not loved red makeup since she was a child, but instead admires those real martial arts heroes. Therefore, she set up an arena to compete in martial arts to recruit a husband. Everyone present, but
Any unmarried man under the age of 30 who is no lower than a fifth-level great swordsman can come on stage to show off his skills. The winner can become her husband as long as he can defeat my young lady!"
Wow~~~ As soon as these words came out, almost 100,000 people present were excited. Everyone's face was excited, especially those who met the conditions, who were eager to try. The little maid waited for a while,
He struck the gong again and said loudly: "Okay, we won't say any more unnecessary words. Now, please invite those who are interested to come up to the stage to accept the challenge!"
Everyone in the audience was excited instantly. Wen Renqiaoer nudged Brother Yi with his elbow and whispered: "I think this young lady is pretty, and her cultivation level is also quite good. Otherwise, you can come up later."
Take care of all those people, and then you can embrace the beauty."
Upon hearing this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he laughed and said: "Hey, I really didn't expect that my Qiao'er is so virtuous, and even prepared a second wife for me. Hey, such a wife is definitely for everyone
It’s what a man dreams of.”
Looking at his extremely unbeatable expression, Wenren Qiaoer was so angry that he gritted his teeth. He grabbed the soft flesh around his waist and rotated it 1,080 degrees in one second, which caused great pain to this dear man.
He bared his teeth, begged for mercy again and again, and didn't give up until he had exhausted all his good words.
Turning around again, I saw that a fight had already begun on the stage. It was a battle between a well-proportioned young man and a fat man. Both of them were at the level of a sixth- or seventh-level swordsman, so the fight was pretty good.
There was back and forth, but in the eyes of the three of them, this was just a little trick. After about a quarter of an hour, the fat man was kicked down.
Immediately afterwards, two more people came up, but there were no highlights, and the battle also went on very quickly. About an hour later, more than thirty winners had entered the rest area. At this time, there were no more people on the stage.
There are so many people, I'm afraid that's almost all the people who meet the requirements.
Just when the maid was about to go on stage to announce the continuation of the next round, a frivolous and arrogant voice sounded: "Wait a minute, I haven't even come on stage yet, how could the performance end so hastily, haha
."
After the laughter, a man in a blue robe with the Ouyang family emblem on his chest slowly walked out of the crowd. There were four sturdy servants around him to separate the crowd. Their movements were extremely rough.
They didn't treat the people around them as human beings at all, and when everyone saw the badges on their chests, they reluctantly shut up, but the man just walked onto the ring calmly.
He looked at the wedding-robed woman sitting on the seat, closed the folding fan in his hand, and clasped his fists coolly, saying frivolously: "Miss Gui, am I, Ouyang Mo, not good enough? Have you never cared about me at all?
How do you feel? You know, among the younger generation of my Ouyang family, there are only a few people who can surpass me, but they will never marry you, and these trash are not worthy of you at all, but
Why don’t you understand!”
After saying these words, he ignored the swordsmen who were glaring at him, and directly punched the city lord: "My lord, the young lady doesn't understand, don't you even understand? If you are married to my Ouyang family,
, it will also be of great help to your status, and your family will definitely prosper in the future."
The city lord snorted coldly, but did not speak. However, the woman on the left could not help but speak: "Master Ouyang Mo, can you represent the Ouyang family? Haha, I don't think so, even if you are
Your most famous Mr. Changkong cannot fully represent the entire Ouyang family!"
When the lie was exposed, Ouyang Mo didn't blush and said with a smile: "Haha, I really can't represent the entire Ouyang family, but my father successfully became the chief official of the southwest border just two days ago. This position
I believe the city lord must be very clear about what it represents."
As soon as he heard this, the city lord's face instantly became extremely ugly. At this time, the young lady next to him said: "Humph, Ouyang Mo, don't use your power to overwhelm others here, let alone even if your father does it."
So what if you become the boss? A city lord can do whatever he says. Today, I am competing in martial arts to find a bride. If you have the ability, you can come up and fight. As long as you win, I will
I will never break my promise, but can you, a great swordsman with a lot of pills, do it?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience burst into laughter. Ouyang Mo's face suddenly became extremely ugly. Not only were he people from Fengpu City here, but also Qingfeng
The big forces coming from the city are not afraid of the Ouyang family.
Ouyang Mo turned around, looked at a strong middle-aged man below and said, "Come up here and help me fight in the ring. Hmph, I want to see who dares to come and fight with me!"
Wow~~ As soon as these words came out, the whole place exploded again. Miss Gui was even more angry and speechless. However, although there was a lot of noise below, no one really came up to the stage. Everyone could see that this was absolutely
He is a swordsman of level seven or above. Among those who meet the age requirements, who can be his opponent? As for finding someone to fight on his behalf, I am afraid there is no other person who can be so shameless.
Just when the atmosphere was very awkward, a sarcastic chuckle rang out: "Haha, after traveling so many places, this is the first time for this young master to find someone to do the wedding ceremony for him. I said this Ouyang
Mr. Mo, do you need someone to take your place even when entering the bridal chamber? No wonder the lady said you can't do it."
With the emergence of this voice, the whole place burst out into waves of laughter again, and some people even echoed and ridiculed wildly. Ouyang Mo's face was so gloomy that he was about to drip with water. Looking at that
He couldn't help but hesitate for a moment at the slowly approaching figure, and then yelled: "Which family are you a little bastard from? Even before your hair has even grown, you come here to imitate other people's martial arts competitions to get married. Have you been weaned?"
Although Zheng Lingxiao has grown a lot taller, it can still be seen that he is definitely not over fifteen years old. He ignored Ouyang Mo's scolding and just walked over slowly. Mr. Ouyang was so angry that he flew into a rage.
, pointed at Zheng Lingxiao and said: "You guys, destroy this ignorant boy and beat him to death!"
When the four strong men heard this, they rushed towards Zheng Lingxiao without hesitation, and smashed their huge fists into his head. It was a sign of a blow, and the people around him couldn't help but scream.
