Three days later, Chu Xisheng began to regret that he had not been ruthless and directly killed the 'Crazy Sword' Wang Ming.
As expected, this person did not stay away, but followed him all the way. Relying on his nihilistic skills, he either hid near the official ship, or lurked directly on the ship, watching Chu Xisheng's every move.
Whenever Chu Xisheng showed signs of slacking off, Wang Ming would make a sneak attack, slashing his hair with a knife.
This guy seems to have a knot in his hair, so he must be shaved.
In just three days, Wang Ming went crazy and launched one hundred and seventy-six consecutive sneak attacks.
Exactly one hundred and seventy-six times!
He would take action almost every one to two moments.
Chu Xisheng was so annoyed that she wished she could catch this crazy swordsman king, tie him up, tie him to the mast, and beat him severely.
Just like Zuo Qingyun whipped Baihu Zhangming every day, he was tortured to death.
The problem is that Wang Ming's escape skills and void methods are really good.
As long as this guy misses a single hit, he will never stop fighting. He relied on his special skills to escape quickly without giving Chu Xisheng any chance to fight back.
When he began to hide and lurk, there was almost no trace.
Chu Xisheng had no choice but to cheer up and be on guard at all times. Even when he was practicing in his dreams at night, he still held the knife in one hand and held it with some caution.
However, whenever he fell asleep, the Crazy Sword King's life stopped, and he never showed up to attack him.
After this situation lasted for three days, Chu Xisheng found that his "divine knowledge" ability was becoming more and more sensitive.
Under Wang Ming's frequent sneak attacks, his ability to sense and predict surrounding things has greatly increased.
Seeing the beginning and knowing the end, knowing the coming and hiding the going, Chu Xisheng can predict what will happen in advance just from the changes in the surrounding environment - such as the disturbance of spiritual power, the vibration of the air, the changes of light and shadow.
By noon on the fourth day, even Zuo Qingyun couldn't stand it anymore.
Just after Wang Ming failed another sneak attack, Zuo Qingyun said helplessly: "How many times is this? One hundred and seventy-six, or one hundred and seventy-seven? Is this guy still finished?
Now I finally know why he is called Crazy Knife! Daqing is not only insane himself, but can also drive others crazy. "
He turned to look at Du Yunlai, who was sitting on the side of the boat, and Zuo Tianlu, who was fishing with Du Yunlai.
"Don't just watch, help me think of a solution! I have to help Xi Sheng catch this Wang Ming."
Du Yunlai laughed when he heard this and continued fishing.
Zuo Tianlu said leisurely: "Xiao Chu is not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry?"
If Chu Xisheng was really angry, he would have asked them for help.
That Crazy Sword King Ming really used Xiao Chu as a whetstone.
The question is, why isn't Xiao Chu like this?
Everyone could see that Chu Xisheng was becoming more and more calm and understated in dealing with Wang Ming's sneak attack.
Just now Wang Ming slashed with his sword, but Chu Xisheng only turned half sideways slightly, causing Wang Ming's attack to fail.
On the contrary, Chu Xisheng's backhand strike, which he had accumulated in advance, actually knocked Wang Ming off the official boat again, almost falling to the river.
Zuo Qingyun thought that I was not in a hurry at first, but the problem is that this guy Wang Ming makes me uneasy.
He looked helplessly at the Eight Immortals table in front of him.
There was originally a banquet on this table that he spent two hundred taels of magic silver and a lot of money to decorate, but now it was in a mess because Chu Xisheng and Wang Ming had another brief encounter, and the food and drinks were spilled all over the floor.
This was the farewell banquet he prepared.
Their official ship was very close to the capital, with less than an hour of sailing left.
Once they entered the capital, their father and son had to be sent to a prison outside the palace city.
Originally, Zuo Qingyun wanted to have a good drink with Chu Xisheng before leaving.
After all, the two of them are going their separate ways after this separation, and I don’t know when they will meet again in the future.
Now, because of the king's fate, a table of fine food and wine was ruined.
He was full of feelings of gratitude and farewell that he wanted to express to Chu Xisheng, but now he was disturbed by this royal decree and lost his mood.
Zuo Qingyun could only wave his hand and ordered his servants: "Pack up your things and throw them into the river to feed the fish."
Just when he finished these words, Zuo Qingyun's expression moved slightly and he looked to the west of the river.
A shadowy giant city over there gradually appeared in Zuo Qingyun's field of vision.
That is Wang'an City, the capital of Daning!
Chu Xisheng also looked forward steadily, with a wave of waves appearing in his eyes.
This was the second time he saw this magnificent city.
Chu Xisheng had been deeply shocked by this majestic city that could not be described in words when he escaped from Qin Muge's tomb of King Bawu.
Today he saw this city again, but his heart was still shaken by it.
The visual effect of this giant city in front of you is far superior to those of modern metropolises.
This is a city whose walls alone are one hundred and twenty feet high.
This is Daning's Wang'an City - a giant city built on the ruins of the old capital thousands of years ago by the Taizu of Daning who recruited 4.7 million warriors.
It is forty miles long from north to south and about thirty-five miles wide. There are seven rivers in the city alone, which can accommodate tens of millions of people.
On the outside is a city wall with a circumference of more than 150 miles, all made of huge blue crystal stones.
The cross-section of the city wall is triangular, and the thickness of the lower layer is as high as 60 feet. The horse path at the top of the wall is also 13 feet wide, and can pass twenty carriages side by side.
The height of the four walls is one hundred and twenty feet, which is as high as the Great Stone Wall in the north.
In addition, there are six huge stone castles with a circumference of several miles and a height of 120 feet guarding Daning.
Daning's 120 feet is equivalent to 400 meters in modern times.
In other words, the height of this city wall is equivalent to a modern 100-story building.
Such an exaggerated stone wall was designed to defend against the descendants of the giant gods in the north.
After those giant gods, there are not a few who are ten or twenty feet tall, or even as high as fifty or sixty feet. The human race can only defend themselves against their climbing attacks with giant city walls of astonishing height.
Wang'an City is the key point between the north and the south, and is the only place where the north marches into the southern states.
So this is not only the capital of Daning, but also a fortress to defend against the descendants of the northern giant god and the barbarians.
Chu Xisheng was actually quite surprised.
As early as three days ago, he had already faintly sensed some danger in the depths of his soul.
But until the official ship they took arrived in the capital, everything was smooth sailing without any danger.
The capital city is ahead, and those killers have no chance to take action.
"Finally arrived in the capital."
Zuo Qingyun's expression was wistful, and he looked back at Chu Xisheng with great reluctance: "It's time to say goodbye again. Join him! Zuo has always been a tough person since he was a child, and rarely sheds tears. But today, one day When I think about parting ways with you and Xi Sheng, I have the urge to urinate."
Chu Xisheng couldn't help shrinking her neck when she heard the words, and she had goosebumps all over her body: "Looking at what you said, people who don't know may think that lovers are breaking up. I have made it clear to you in advance that Chu will never do anything. Long Yang is good. If you dare to have any wrong thoughts, I will sever ties with you."
In this world, there is also Lord Longyang.
Zuo Qingyun's face darkened when he heard this. He thought about his words and felt that they were too enthusiastic.
He smiled coquettishly, then motioned to the servant next to him to bring over a bottle of wine and two wine glasses.
Zuo Qingyun first poured a glass of wine for Chu Xisheng: "Zuo has many close friends in his life, but among them, you are the only one who can be considered a close friend of life and death."
He also poured himself a glass of wine and said with a solemn expression: "However, there is no banquet in the world that lasts forever. This glass of ours is a toast to farewell and to the friendship between you and me."
Chu Xisheng smiled brightly and drank the whole drink in one gulp: "We are close friends in the sea, and we are neighbors as far apart as the world. The friendship between you and me is unstoppable, so why should we be sad? I believe that we will see each other one day!"
Zuo Qingyun also drank the wine in the cup with pride: "What a confidant in the sea, we are as close as the world is near! What a revelation!"
Then he said with regret: "It's a pity that there is wine but no food. The banquet I bought was kicked over by Crazy Sword King Ming. It's just that we didn't have a farewell banquet in Xiushui, and we didn't have a banquet after entering Beijing." "
Chu Xisheng laughed heartily after hearing this: "Maybe it's because the fate between you and me is not over yet, and it's not time for the farewell banquet yet-"
At this moment, Chu Xisheng's eyes moved slightly and he took a step to the left.
Sure enough, the next moment, Crazy Sword King Ming held a wild goose feather sword and passed by him on the right.
Just now, all Chu Xisheng had to do was dodge a little slower, and all his hair would be chopped off by him.
At this time, a "choking" sound came from Chu Xisheng's waist, like a tiger roaring and a dragon roaring.
Chu Xisheng held the wine glass in his right hand and could only draw the sword with his left hand, but his Xunfeng Thunder Saber was still like light and lightning, hitting Crazy Sword King Ming's chest almost head-on.
Wang Ming blocked it at the last moment, and then his whole body was smashed under the boat again, and his body sank several feet into the water.
Wang Ming's cultivation level is at the seventh level, his bloodline talent is at the super genius level, and his power is naturally superior to Chu Xisheng's.
However, Chu Xisheng's white horse was not a horse, so Chu Xisheng's Xunfeng Thunder Saber slashed all the way to Wang Ming's chest. Wang Ming could barely discern the direction of the sword, so he was unable to gather all his strength.
Chu Xisheng immediately locked Wang Ming's Qi with his spiritual thoughts and traced his traces.
His horo fish zombie also quickly extended its tentacles.
Unfortunately, Wang Ming escaped in advance and disappeared into the river before the tentacles of the Ho Luo fish zombie arrived.
But this time, Wang Ming laughed.
"Brother Chu is indeed a very interesting person, but I already know your sword! Today I will give Brother Chu a night to have a good rest and wash away his dust. Tomorrow morning, you and I will fight at the Xicheng Pier. See you there!"
The sound seemed to come from all directions and then disappeared without a trace.
Zuo Qingyun frowned slightly and looked sideways at Chu Xisheng: "His tone seems to be very confident. I wonder Xisheng, what are your chances of winning? If you win for sure, I will also go to the gambling house to place a bet."
Chu Xi let out a 'tsk' sound: "How should I put it? He actually hasn't seen through me, but I have seen through him."
When he spoke, he looked at his martial arts treasure house with strange eyes.
Pure Yang (Level 6) - Requires 165625 martial arts points
The Body of Time and Shadow (Level 6) - requires 109,375 martial arts points.
Chu Xisheng had some luck today. After practicing the Yang Yuan Gong in the early morning, he was able to generate two sixth-level bloodline talents at once.
And any one of them can double his strength.
Therefore, what Wang Ming sees is only the me of today, and the me of tomorrow is completely different from the me of today.
Chu Xisheng then looked at Zuo Qingyun suspiciously: "Are you going to go to Dali Temple Prison next? That is one of the so-called 'Heavenly Prisons'. Can you still go to a gambling house to place bets?"
"You have to go to jail, but after all, I was only implicated by the old man, not a prisoner. Mei Niang also helped me take care of the people in the prison. It's no problem for me to have someone help me place a bet in the prison."
When Zuo Qingyun said this, he once again showed a look of sadness: "I've been thinking about it these days, but I'm still embarrassed to let a few of them accompany my family on adventures, and I don't want to waste my good years in prison, being humiliated and bullied, and suffering from the jailer's idleness. .
So I have established a reliable relationship, and I will be able to come out after the interrogation is over. Unfortunately, it will take half a month, otherwise I can leave Xisheng to stay in the capital for a while, and I can take Xisheng to have fun in the capital. "
Zuo Tianlu, who was fishing next to him, heard this, but he didn't know what he thought of, and his face darkened: "You are such a traitor, could you have gone to see Bai Huhou?"
Chu Xisheng was stunned when he heard this.
Bai Huhou? Could it be Bai Huhou, one of the four great masters of the Six Gates?
"I don't want to either." Zuo Qingyun poured himself another glass of wine and sighed: "I don't want to either. The problem is that my mother can't stand the smog in the south, nor the bitter cold in the north. Dad, if you If my mother, many aunts, and my two younger brothers must accompany you, then I have nothing to say."
Chu Xisheng still didn't know why.
How come his life-and-death acquaintance is related to the White Tiger God?
Zuo Tianlu was speechless and choked.
His wife was in poor health. She had been in bed for more than ten years after suffering a fright on the river in Xunyang County before she recovered.
There are also two younger brothers of Zuo Qingyun, who were both studying in the Imperial College in the capital. Now he is also implicated and imprisoned in prison.
It is said that he was severely beaten when he was imprisoned and suffered a lot.
Zuo Tianlu asked his close friends to take care of them beforehand, and Zuo Qingyun asked Wu Meiniang to spend a lot of money to save their lives.
If the two of them followed him to the misty and cold frontier land, they might be in danger of dying.
Zuo Tianlu's face turned green and white for a while, and finally he sighed: "It's up to you, you make your own decisions about your marriage. There is only one thing, I must give birth to a boy named Zuo in the future."
——This is his father’s last insistence.
Zuo Qingyun chuckled.
Only then did Zuo Tianlu think about the inheritance of the Zuo family? Why didn't he consider that memorial when he impeached the Minister of Household Affairs?
And didn’t the Zuo family still have his two younger brothers?
He shook his head slightly and looked at Sikong Xin again: "Sikong, I probably won't need you in the White Tiger Hall and I won't be able to support you in the future. My idea is for you to switch to Xishan Hall and work for Xisheng from now on. You know what kind of person he is, Xi Sheng’s character and talent are far superior to mine, and he will definitely not let you down.”
When Sikong Xin heard this, she glanced sideways at Chu Xisheng.
She then shook her head slightly: "Sorry, I have to return to the sect to practice cultivation until I am promoted to the fifth level. It will probably take at least a year. If Xishan Hall is still there at that time and can afford the price, I have no objection."
She has followed Zuo Qingyun for three years and has accumulated nearly two hundred thousand taels of magic silver. This amount of money was enough for her to advance through two levels in a row, all the way to the fifth level.
Sikong Xin's Yuan Gong cultivation and martial arts background were already sufficient. She was able to be promoted to the sixth level two years ago, but she couldn't be promoted because she couldn't get the secret medicine of the sect.
If it weren't for the friendship between the two masters and servants, Sikong Xin would have left Xiushui long ago and returned to the sect to cultivate.
Chu Xisheng's mind moved slightly.
He admired Sikong Xin's strength, talent and personality very much. If you can take him under your wing, it will be a great help.
The majestic Xishan Hall cannot rely entirely on the second or fifth generation.
But then he suppressed his thoughts.
Sikong Xin said those words for a reason.
There is a huge step between the fifth-grade martial arts cultivator and the sixth-grade martial arts cultivator.
In this world, a fifth-grade martial artist can dominate a corner and support a force.
With only two sixth-grade members, the Long family has become one of the richest families in the inner city of Xiushui County, with an annual income of seven to eight hundred thousand taels of magic silver.
Not to mention the fifth-grade martial arts cultivators with stronger combat power?
Why should I work for others when I can easily earn hundreds of thousands of taels of magic silver every year?
Therefore, if you want to hire a fifth-grade martial artist, you will have to spend at least three to five million taels of magic silver a year.
What's more, Sikong Xin's talent is extremely high.
Although this person is not usually very impressive, his fighting power is actually extremely high. In the previous battle, Sikong Xin was one against two.
Chu Xisheng estimated that this woman's strength could at least rank in the top fifty on the famous hero list.
Her commission will only be much higher than the other five products.
Based on the current situation of Xishan Hall, it is really unlikely that he will be able to hire her in a year's time.
"It's up to you to do whatever you want."
Zuo Qingyun was also happy for Sikong Xin. First grade, third grade, fifth grade and seventh grade were all major thresholds on the road of cultivation.
A martial cultivator at the fifth level will not only experience a qualitative change in combat power, but also have a lifespan of up to two hundred years.
Zuo Qingyun then hugged Du Yunlai's fists: "The kindness of Du Zhuang Lord escorting me will be repaid later!"
"That's easy to say!" Du Yunlai raised his eyebrows slightly and put down his fishing rod to return the favor.
Du Yunlai was also surprised, how could this guy be related to the White Tiger God?
This is a third-grade official in the current dynasty! The strength and authority are much greater than those of the Shaoqing of Dali Temple.
And in the next moment, several people on the boat saw a white light flying across the sky from the direction of the capital.
The light and shadow were like meteors, and it took less than twenty breaths to cross dozens of miles and reach the sky above the official ship.
When the person in the white light and shadow landed on the bow of the ship, the entire official ship was pressed down by a full two feet. There were also huge waves on both sides of the official ship.
Chu Xisheng first heard a strong, majestic, and majestic tiger roar.
Then he saw a woman with extremely delicate facial features, bright eyes, white teeth, and picturesque features at the bow of the ship walking towards Zuo Qingyun.
Every aspect of this woman's facial features is in line with Chu Xisheng's aesthetics.
Only her figure made Chu Xisheng swallow involuntarily.
Zuo Qingyun was already very tall, but this woman standing next to Zuo Qingyun was actually two heads taller than him.
If I had to use some words to describe her - it would be Yao Juli with the face of Yang.
Is this Bai Huhou, one of the Four Great Gods of the Six Gates?
Marquis Baihu turned a blind eye to the strange looks from the people on the boat. She pinched Zuo Qingyun's face with her hand with a proud and affectionate expression: "So you have already said goodbye to your friends? Tsk, tut, it's obviously you who came to beg me. And you showed me this stinky face."
Zuo Qingyun's face turned dark at first, and he slapped Bai Huhou's hand away: "There are so many people on the boat!"
He then sighed softly, with a smile on his face: "I will introduce these friends to you. This is my life and death friend Chu Xisheng. If it weren't for him, I might not be able to see you."
Chu Xisheng hurriedly raised his hand, cupped his fist and bowed towards Bai Huhou.
He had a clear understanding in his heart, no wonder they had been safe since entering Hezhou.
Chu Xidian stated that he sensed that there was a master watching nearby and that he had secret murderous intentions, but until they arrived in the capital, there was no movement.
This was probably Bai Huhou's move to stop the young minister of Dali Temple.
At the same time, Chu Xisheng was secretly amused.
I really misjudged this Zuo Yanei. He turned out to be a freeloader - it was simply a disgrace to men!
However, since there is Bai Huhou in Zuoya, the flower protector, Chu Xisheng can really rest assured and return to Xiushui.
