Chapter 127, Taoist gathering
"Qingshi, you won't challenge your nephew, right?" Mo Sihai asked with a smile.
"Of course not." Qingshi heard what Mo Sihai meant and quickly replied.
"Yes!" Mo Sihai nodded, "Do you remember the young talent competition that I told you about between Tianlong Continent and Tianying Continent every 20 years? You will have a chance to show your face then."
"I don't care whether I show my face or not!" Qingshi said, "It all depends on the arrangements of master and senior brother!"
"Well, very good!" Mo Sihai said, "You should keep a low profile now and perform well when the time comes. Amano's ability to defeat Jiang Chenxiu is the limit. Jiang Chenliang is much more powerful than Jiang Chenying. I think only you can defeat him." he."
"Since we are competing against Tianying Continent," Qingshi asked in confusion, "Why should I defeat Jiang Chenliang? Shouldn't we all represent Tianlong Continent?"
"I originally planned to tell you in detail when we meet Master together in a few days," Mo Sihai said. "Since we have met now, I will tell you briefly first."
As Mo Sihai waved his hands, the two of them had arrived outside the square and landed on a small road. Mo Sihai put away his spell, and the two of them walked slowly along the small road. As they walked, Mo Sihai said: "Tianlong and Tianying are the two royal families of the two continents. There is a non-interference agreement between the two countries, but there are frequent frictions and even deliberate attacks on the border. The most important military forces of both sides are deployed on the border, and they dare not relax at all times.
"This competition between young talents from the two continents, which takes place every twenty years, is on the surface a friendly gathering, but in fact it is a good opportunity to declare national strength and demonstrate to each other. Therefore, no matter how the rules of the competition change in the past thousand years, the final The finals always require one person from each side to compete on behalf of their respective continents, and without exception, the finals are always between the royal children of the two continents."
"This competition has been interrupted several times, and it has been held for forty-two times so far. Coincidentally, both sides won exactly twenty-one times each and ended up tied. However, I, Tianlong Continent, have lost four consecutive games."
"This time we are the host, so we must win, and more importantly, we cannot let the children of the Jiang Dynasty represent the Tianlong Continent this time. You can only represent the Tianlong Continent and our Xuanmen in the finals, so, You must defeat Jiang Chenliang to get the right to fight."
Qingshi thought about it and said: "Then how are the specific competition rules arranged?"
"It's not confirmed yet," Mo Sihai said, "but we are making secret arrangements. You are bound to meet Jiang Chenliang. You must defeat him to gain the right to fight. In the decisive battle, you must also defeat the opponents from Tianying Continent. This It was planned by me, and I also planned and arranged it after seeing your strength. Don't let me and Master down. Remember, this is not just your personal victory or defeat, it has something to do with us. Xuanmen’s life and death, honor and disgrace, and even the rise and fall of the entire continent.”
"Ah!" Qingshi was shocked.
"There's no need to rush!" Mo Sihai said, "Just do what you should do. I can't say too much about the specific situation at the moment, and things may change. I'll see Master in a few days. Let’s talk about it later.”
"Yes!" Qingshi had to answer.
"By the way, don't go out during this period, keep a low profile and don't cause trouble! Listen to my notifications at any time." Mo Sihai waved his hand and left.
Qingshi had never seen Mo Sihai so serious before, and what he was talking about was so involved that it simply exceeded his imagination. After thinking about it for a while, he couldn't figure it out. He thought that after meeting the master in a few days, he would understand it and feel at ease.
But Mo Sihai didn't dare to disobey Mo Sihai's orders, so he went straight back to the dormitory, declined the invitation to the wine bar by Zhang Hao, Duan Wutian and others, and put up a retreat sign to refuse the visit of Teng Shouqian, Shen Binghong, Shen Jiayun and others. He only concentrates on practicing martial arts techniques and preparing for the competition.
Fortunately, there was a holiday in two days, and no one would disturb him. Qingshi was already concentrating on the various high-level martial arts he had acquired. He wished he had to practice without eating, drinking or sleeping, so he practiced hard behind closed doors without any distractions.
More than half a month passed quickly, and it seemed that the New Year would be here in a few days. On this day, Qingshi finally received a message from Mo Sihai, asking him to immediately go to meet Ou Changzhi at Ou Changzhi's mansion by Xiaolu Lake.
Qingshi hurriedly took a shower, shaved and changed clothes. On the way, he thought of Little Fatty and told him that he needed to be shielded for a few hours. He couldn't go in or out and couldn't send messages. Little Fatty didn't care and fell asleep.
Arriving at Ou Changzhi's residence, Qingshi went straight in without encountering any obstruction. When he entered the door, he saw that there were nine people sitting or standing in the room. In addition to Ou Changzhi, Mo Sihai, Gui Huadong, Chen Tianye and Zhong Buli, there were three other people. I don’t know him. Ou Changzhi was sitting at the main seat chatting and laughing. Qingshi quickly came forward and bowed to salute Ou Changzhi and said hello. After Ou Changzhi nodded and called, he saluted and said hello to Mo Sihai, Gui Huadong.
Gui Huadong helped Qingshi up and laughed and said, "Junior brother is here! I haven't seen him for a long time. He has improved his cultivation level. He has already surpassed Amano. Haha! Come on, let me introduce you."
Then he greeted a big man in military uniform who looked like an iron tower and said, "Senjing, this is your junior uncle Qingshi. Come quickly and greet me." Then he said to Qingshi: "This is my eldest disciple. He used to serve in the border army. He was transferred to the capital last year as the commander of the Royal Forest Army and the admiral of the nine gates, which is already a second-grade military position."
The tower-like man came over, clasped his fists and saluted, "Senjing has met Master Qingshi!" His expression was calm and his aura was as majestic as a mountain. Qingshi responded with a flat salute.
The other two young men whom Qingshi didn't know were also in military uniforms, but their military ranks were one level lower than Senjing's. At this time, without Gui Huadong's orders, the two of them stepped forward to salute Qingshi and called him uncle.
It turns out that these are Mo Sihai's eldest and second disciples. They were both serving in the frontier army and were independent generals. Not long ago, they were transferred to Beiwei Camp, one of the two military camps guarding Chaoge. Now they are both. General of the Northern Guard Camp.
The eldest disciple is named Xia Yiming, and the second disciple is Dai Yanru. Qingshi also met each other with courtesy. Xia Yiming's cliff bank was high, and his return gift to Qingshi was neither humble nor overbearing. Dai Yanru, however, was easy-going by nature. He smiled and said that Qingshi was his uncle and did not dare to accept his gift, so he insisted on worshiping Qingshi again. Mo Sihai smiled and said that Qingshi and Amano were equals. When it comes to friendship, that's all he does.
Gui Huadong actually has several disciples, such as Song Motian. In the past thirty years, Gui Huadong has traveled all over the world, and Song Motian has been in charge of the Yuehua Sect, making the sect prosperous. He has been away from Chao Ge recently, so he did not come today.
Ou Changzhi saw that Qingshi was humble and the juniors were not disrespectful. He nodded with satisfaction and said: "Today is the most complete gathering of people in our Xuanmen in more than ten years. It's rare! I invite you this time. In addition to everyone getting together, there is an important event that we all need to discuss together. You will all be directly or indirectly involved in this important event. Regardless of whether you have important tasks and responsibilities, you are all members of my Xuanmen. You must be both prosperous and prosperous. Everyone suffers. Sihai, please tell everyone!"
Mo Sihai agreed and briefly told the big event that Ou Changzhi planned. In fact, everyone including Qingshi knew it more or less. In particular, Sen Jing, Xia Yiming and others have known about it for a long time, participated in it, and have taken on important responsibilities.
Ou Changzhi had perfected the Five Elements True Qi a few years ago, and soon unified the anti-imperialist thoughts of the Tianlong Continent and decided to launch a coup to overthrow the imperial family. In order to seek foreign aid, Ou Changzhi went to the Sky Eagle Continent again. He used his peerless martial arts to help the mighty Wang Sheng Qingyun, his former life and death friend, assassinate the Emperor Sheng Fei and help Sheng Qingyun become the emperor of the Sky Eagle Empire.
Na Shengfei was originally cruel and unjust. Not only the people were complaining, but the royal family Sheng family was also dissatisfied with him. Therefore, the succession of power after the assassination went smoothly, and the new emperor also received great support from the people.
Sheng Fei's death was said to be the work of the gangster Tie Xuan. In fact, Tie Xuan, who had a deep hatred for Sheng Fei, was indeed involved. Afterwards, he admitted that it was his own doing and that he died deliberately at the hands of Sheng Qingyun. Of course, all this is a deal between Sheng Qingyun, Ou Changzhi and Tie Xuan. The case of Shengfei's death was thus closed and quickly forgotten.
This time, Sheng Qingyun mobilized experts and secretly followed the delegation of the Youth Talent Competition to the Tianlong Dynasty to compete. He also assembled a large army to attract the attention of the Tianlong Continent, causing the Tianlong Dynasty to mobilize a large part of its combat power out of Chaoge and deploy it at the border. .
The purpose of Sheng Qingyun is to cooperate with Ou Changzhi and overthrow the rule of the Jiang Dynasty. This is what Ou Changzhi is planning. According to Mo Sihai, everything is ready and it's just a matter of waiting for the right opportunity, and the best time is when the young talents from the two continents compete in the martial arts competition.
Mo Sihai said: "Master has been planning this major event for decades. Now all the action plans have been arranged. It will be a success. Master's main task in this operation is to lead our strongest combat force into the Palace, kill the Jiang royal family. I will take care of coordinating the overall situation."
"The missions of Junior Brother Huadong, Senior Nephew Senjing, as well as Yiming and Yanru are related to the overall outcome. I will not disclose them here. You only need to implement them according to the plan."
Several people agreed at the same time.
"Never leave, never abandon," Mo Sihai continued, "You have no specific mission, just follow me when the time comes!"
"Yes!" Zhong Buli and Zhong Buqi stood up together and clasped their fists in agreement.
"Qingshi, Amano," Mo Sihai said, "you two have to bear some responsibilities. Even though it has nothing to do with the overall situation, I still hope you can do a good job!"
Qingshi and Chen Tianye stood up together and asked Mo Sihai for instructions.
Mo Sihai said: "I originally wanted Qingshi to take more responsibilities, but Master doesn't want you to take risks. So your two tasks have nothing to do with the overall situation. I will talk about it here. Master and everyone also understand."
Seeing Ou Changzhi nodding in agreement, Mo Sihai said: "You two are going to participate in the competition between young talents from the Tianlong and Tianying continents. This competition is for both parties to have cultivation levels above the middle level of the Yuan Dan realm and below the middle level of the Jin Dan realm. Yes, sixteen monks each who have practiced for no more than thirty-six years will draw lots and compete against each other. In the first three rounds, the opponents will choose people from the other country. After reaching the top four, lots will be drawn randomly. The winner will be promoted and the loser will be eliminated until the champion is determined."
Dai Yanru smiled and said: "The rules this time are quite simple. I remember the last time I participated, we were divided into four groups! By the way, Master, will this be the case after three rounds and only people from a certain side will be left?" Already?"
"No!" Mo Sihai said with a slight smile, "If the predictions are correct, the top four should be two people from each side. Then they will draw lots for civil war in their respective continents, and finally one person from each continent will be Tianlong and Tianying for the final battle."
"Has everything been arranged in advance?" Ou Changzhi asked, looking rather disapproving.
"Not exactly, Master," Mo Sihai said respectfully, "We will temporarily make optimal battle arrangements based on the strength of the contestants on both sides. The purpose is to prevent the strongest people from both sides from meeting each other too early. Strength is the main factor. , there is less luck involved, I believe no one will say that they have been treated unfairly, after all, the battle is real, and we will never interfere with the outcome of the battle."
"What is the purpose of doing this?" Ou Changzhi asked. It seems that he does not understand the arrangement of this game. For him, this game is just a cover to attract attention and cover up important actions. I don't care about winning or losing.
"Master," Mo Sihai replied respectfully, "the outcome of this game is not important, and the success or failure of Qingshi and Amano's mission has nothing to do with the overall situation. However, my idea is that since we have to cooperate with important events, the game itself can also play a role. It will have a certain effect.”
"Hmm!" Ou Changzhi said, "Please tell me in detail."
"Yes!" Mo Sihai said, "I carefully analyzed the situation of the contestants from the two continents. The two strongest people on our side should be Qingshi and Jiang Chenliang, and the opponents should be the brothers Sheng Yingying and Sheng Yinghua from the Tianying royal family. If nothing unexpected happens , the four of them will enter the final four. I think Jiang Chenliang must not be allowed to win the championship. Not long ago, Qingshi defeated Jiang Chenying and Amano defeated Jiang Chenxiu, which has knocked the dignity of the royal family to the ground. Therefore, Jiang Chenliang must not be allowed to win, thus inspiring the royal family. The morale of the royal family. We should take this opportunity to severely damage the morale of the royal family again and enhance the influence of our Xuanmen. Therefore, the best result is that Qingshi will defeat Jiang Chenliang in the semi-finals, and then represent Tianlong Continent and our Xuanmen in the finals. "
"Yes!" Ou Changzhi nodded, "You are right. Although the result of the game will not have much impact on the overall situation, if Qingshi really defeats Jiang Chenliang and represents Tianlong Continent in the finals, it will be very good for our morale and confidence. It can also hit the royal family from this aspect. Very good, is Qingshi confident?"
"Yes!" Qingshi replied, "I will definitely defeat Jiang Chenliang, and I will win the final." Qingshi is indeed confident. Since he obtained these earth-level martial arts and magic weapons from Yunlu, Qingshi's battles have improved in the past few months. The strength has been greatly improved, and the confidence has naturally increased dramatically.
"Okay!" Ou Changzhi said, "I believe in the world's evaluation of you. You must make it clear that you are my disciple when you go to battle this time. Do you understand?"
"Yes!" Qingshi replied.
...
In the living room of the dormitory building, Xiaopang was lying on a soft recliner, chewing on a piece of dried spirit beast meat. Qingshi sat aside and flipped through a few pages of paper. This was the information about Jiang Chenliang that Mo Sihai provided to Qingshi. The information in the information was not the same. not much.
Jiang Chenliang, the fifteenth grandson of Jiang Yulong, the current emperor of the Tianlong Empire, is the third heir to the throne and the first heir to the throne in the Chen generation. Thirty-nine years old, my current cultivation level is suspected to be at the low level of the Golden Core Realm. The attributes of true energy can be determined to be thunder, metal, fire, suspected to be wood, and maybe even wind. The strongest martial arts skills are thunder, including thunder and light. Technique, thunderbolt sword technique, etc. Others unknown.
Qingshi looked through it and thought to himself, if Jiang Chenliang really has wind attribute Qi, then he has both wind and thunder attributes, which is surprising.
However, Qingshi is not worried. He has perfected all nine types of Qi. He does not believe that Jiang Chenliang's thunder martial arts skills are stronger than his earth-level thunder martial arts, Thunder God Fist, let alone the heaven-level martial arts - the magical power of Thunder Hands. He was confident that he would be able to win even with flying sword skills and divine lighting skills.
Although he was confident, Qingshi did not relax at all in his training. In addition to the Dahuang Kung Fu, the most important things he practiced every day were the Thunder God Fist and the Heavenly Thunder Hand. Qingshi decided to use the thunder system to defeat Jiang Chenliang and use the royal family's unique , monopolized thunder martial arts to defeat the royal children, only in this way can the most shocking effect be achieved.
Qingshi originally wanted to find information about Sheng Yingxiong from Mo Sihai, but Mo Sihai smiled and said that his most important task was to defeat Jiang Chenliang. As for the match against Sheng Yingxiong, it seemed that the outcome was no longer important. Qingshi had no choice but to give up. What Mo Sihai didn't say was that if the plan went well, there would be no need for the finals.
Qingshi practiced hard behind closed doors and waited for the competition day to arrive. The New Year was approaching. Ou Changzhi acted secretly to avoid the eyes and ears of the royal family and did not appear in public. Mo Sihai and Gui Huadong were walking around to communicate, but they had no time to pay attention to Qingshi, and Qingshi did not Joining in the fun, spending the New Year in school alone and alone, fortunately, I have already gotten used to it and don’t take it seriously.
