Wow!
Everyone in the city made a noise.
Really a challenge?
Northern Sword Immortal, do you really dare to stand up to Xu Xiaoshou, who can even kill a half-saint?
"This is an internal competition among the Seven Swordsmen. Fighting for fame, right?"
"But Bei Jianxian ranks higher than Master Shou. Why do you condescend to challenge him? This seems to be against the rules?"
"Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand. It's not against the rules. It can be challenged. It's just that no one has ever fought like this."
"I know! I raise my hand! I also heard that according to the regulations of the Seven Swordsmen Battle, anyone who 'fights for the name' must abandon other Taoisms, including spirit refining, and of course the power of ghosts and beasts. , Just compete with the level of ancient swordsmanship... Bei Sword Immortal is so wise!"
"Oh, it's true that the drunkard is not interested in drinking. This little Beibei is too evil. Her move will not only limit our master's combat power, but it will also happen in three days. This is obviously stalling for time!"
"Oh? Is it Brother Zhu? What's your opinion?"
"Three days later, maybe the people of the Holy Temple will bring reinforcements from the ruins of the God-killing Officer... Didn't Mr. Shou guess before that Lord Cangsheng was trapped in the ruins? Now they are probably recruiting people. They need to rely on Gu Jianxiu’s appointment to buy time..."
"Hiss! Brother Zhu is really smart!"
"It's no big deal, we can all see through it, Master Shou is even more perceptive."
High in the sky, Xu Xiaoshou could easily read Beibei's thoughts.
He pointed at the girl and turned to look at Lei Xier and the others behind him, with a funny look on his face:
"She's joking."
Beibei's expression suddenly stiffened.
She is serious! Gu Jianxiu is also serious!
As an ancient sword cultivator, Xu Xiaoshou still holds her letter of challenge in his hand, which means he accepts the challenge.
However, verbally, he was still joking, which was too unserious!
"Xu Xiaoshou, don't you know, have you already promised her?" Tears suddenly spoke out.
He knew Xu Xiaoshou's temperament.
This guy has only learned ancient sword skills, but he is not a pure ancient sword cultivator, nor does he fully understand the circle of ancient sword cultivators and the spirit of ancient sword cultivators.
In this complete world, there is a group of people who still uphold the "chivalrous spirit" inherited from ancient times. Although it seems undesirable, they have created a person with a distinctive personality - this is Gu Jianxiu.
The name of the Seven Sword Immortals is sacred to every pure ancient sword cultivator.
If there is a battle, we must fight it.
Must go when you have an appointment.
In just one month, some ancient sword cultivators were unable to accept hundreds or thousands of challenges.
As long as the situation allows - there will be no situation like the last Gu Lao retreat, where I got carried away and forgot about the world.
Even if the person who takes the fight in the end will be exhausted to the point of death.
From the perspective of most people in the world today, the "chivalrous spirit" of Gu Jianxiu is a bit redundant.
After all, he is too straightforward and can easily be taken advantage of.
But this person Xu Xiaoshou...
How should I put it, he is somewhere in the middle between the two.
He learned the "good" spirit of ancient sword cultivation, and didn't want the "bad" ones at all.
This "bad" is not "bad" in the true sense.
He is both tough and tough, depending on the situation.
He is arrogant, but he is not arrogant. At least in this situation, he will definitely take the soft rather than the hard.
"Did I accept her challenge?"
As expected, when Xu Xiaoshou heard this, he turned his head and said angrily: "I didn't even say a word, so I accept her challenge? What kind of rule is this?"
Tears shook his head and said: "Since you accept the invitation to fight, even if you accept the battle, this is not only a rule of the Feng family, but also a convention of ancient sword cultivators."
"She threw it over! I just wanted to see what was written inside..."
Xu Xiaoshou muttered and then opened the letter of challenge.
After a casual scan, he found that the content inside was almost the same as what Beibei said.
But I have to say, it’s really formal!
The letter of challenge is made of thin sheets of bronze, which feels very textured.
There is a sword tower hollowed out on its surface, but there is no human figure on it, only two swords crossed, which represents the ultimate battle under the sword god's certification.
Turning it over, you can see that the ink characters on the invitation to war are square and dry. They are proud and full of form and spirit, and they appear on the paper.
From the surrounding patterns, the honorific at the beginning, to the words in the text, the gilded signature and monogram at the end, as well as the personal sword seal and aura left by Bei Bei... they all express formality, politeness, and respect.
Xu Xiaoshou can almost see the image of Beibei with his feet on the chair, hunched over his desk writing, pouring blood into every word, so focused and serious that he pouts.
He was a little surprised.
Close the letter of invitation and aim north.
When he saw the little girl's angry expression and a bit of humiliation in her eyes, Xu Xiaoshou couldn't help but feel moved.
She is too serious!
to be honest……
From the beginning, Xu Xiaoshou had no intention of paying attention to Beibei, let alone a gentleman's fight.
This started when he "killed the heart" and even criticized the people and rules of the entire Holy Temple.
He didn't save any face for Beibei and Shengshan, he just wanted to humiliate them.
As for the southern region...
The Feng Family of the Southern Territory ranked among the rankings, and the Seven Sword Immortals returned to the Seven Sword Immortals. Xu Xiaoshou did not want to offend them at all!
He believes that his ranking is due to his strength.
When he wins the title of "The First Sword Immortal" in the future, the value of this generation of Seven Sword Immortals will also rise because of his existence.
Naturally, having the name "Master Shou" among the Seven Sword Immortals is an honor for the Feng family in the Southern Territory, not for Xu Xiaoshou.
but……
The ancient sword cultivators seemed to have a different understanding of this battle than their own.
They are all too serious!
Not just Beibei.
Xu Xiaoshou looked back in tears and was shocked to realize that this boy was speaking for Beibei from the beginning, or in other words, he was speaking for Gu Jianxiu's "convention".
Even Mr. Si Ren...
When Xu Xiaoshou looked over, he found that the usually kind teacher did not look at him at all this time, and his expression was calm, but the smell between his eyebrows...
It's not calm, it's out of sight!
The old sword master clearly knew what his student's urine was.
Since he knew that persuasion was fruitless, Xu Xiaoshou was right from his point of view...
Because he himself also insisted that he could not speak for Xu Xiaoshou from Beibei's side, but he would not ignore his position and really speak for Beibei who was hostile...
Simply shut up!
He just looked at Beibei with distress, knowing that he was facing Xu Xiaoshou, and the little girl should suffer a lot.
"You are acting as if I am the sinner..."
Xu Xiaoshou couldn't help but smile bitterly, but his heart was deeply touched.
After spending a long time in the big dye vat of the spirit refining world, especially after facing the old Yinbi in the corridor and sky, he found that he had also been polluted.
Even if you are as smart as me, you are like this.
None of these ancient sword cultivators has ever changed.
Should we say they stick to the old rules, or should we describe them as rather bending than bending?
Xu Xiaoshou was not sure, but he suddenly understood why the group of ancient sword cultivators seemed so different in the spirit refining world.
In today's world, there are too many people who follow the trend, and there are also those who yearn for new ways and worship foreign methods.
However, there are very few people who can still adhere to the ancient rituals and pass on the civilization and character from ancient times for decades without being encouraged by anyone.
This is the ancient sword cultivator!
A gentleman is cautious in his independence and does not bully the darkroom.
Those who can do this will naturally persist in the crowd, and then stand out from the crowd.
You may not understand it, but their spirit is indeed worthy of respect!
"Fighting for fame..."
Rubbing the heavy petition in his hand, looking at the ancient sword Xiu Beibei swallowing his humiliation not far away, and feeling the quiet sound of rustling wind and snow all around, Xu Xiaoshou realized what this sentence meant again.
This name definitely refers to the names of the Seven Sword Immortals.
This battle is not simply a battle to promote the names of the Seven.
The list of the Seven Sword Immortals and the battle between the Seven Sword Immortals are just a formality.
What it truly inherits is the character of the ancient sword cultivator era, and aims to continue the spiritual connotation of "go forward indomitably, rather break than bend" represented by the name "Ancient Sword Cultivator"!
This is extremely precious in the rolling tide of the spirit refining era and under the support of all the insidious villains.
"A group of rebels..."
brush.
Under the gaze of everyone, Xu Xiaoshou sighed and stood up from the ghost throne.
He restrained his playful demeanor and became very solemn and serious. He shook the letter of challenge in his hand and said seriously:
"First of all, I want to apologize for the joke I just made."
Apologize……?
Beibei was stunned as he held his sword.
Did you experience auditory hallucinations due to too many shocks in one day?
Xu Xiaoshou was so arrogant that even the master of Xuanji Palace could humiliate him first and then kill him...well, I meant to insult him.
He apologized to me?
Could it be that he likes me?
The speed of Lei Xi'er's Divine Demonic Eyes slowed down slightly, and she was also stunned for a moment.
This was somewhat inconsistent with her impression of Xu Xiaoshou. Was he taken away from others?
Only the corners of his lips curled up with tears, and he shook his head with a smile.
Behind him, Mei Siren laughed loudly after being stunned, and casually shook out his paper fan:
"How dare you, Shuzi?!"
He was startled to see that he could actually see the side of "a boy can be taught". The old man quickly turned the paper fan over and continued to shake it as if nothing had happened.
Only ancient sword cultivators understand ancient sword cultivation.
However, the female ancient sword cultivator doesn’t quite understand...
"Xu Xiaoshou, are you sick?" Beibei shook his head in public and refused, "I don't accept it, and I can't possibly like you."
ah?
Xu Xiaoshou was speechless even before he finished the second half of the sentence.
No, did you jump to some eighteen-forbidden channel? Did you think too far and misunderstood something?
"I mean……"
Xu Xiaoshou suppressed his laughter, shook the challenge letter in his hand vigorously, and brought the topic back on track:
"I see your respect."
"I have also seen how serious you are about the name of Seven Swordsmen."
"I'm sorry for the rudeness just now. This apology is more directed at your identity as an ancient sword cultivator... Of course, it's also directed at you personally, but not much."
Beibei's face turned red when he heard the first half, knowing that he had misunderstood. When he heard the second part, his face turned dark, he rolled his eyes and said:
"You are indeed sick! You have to be so clear about even apologizing. Do you have to say it righteously to make you look confident?"
"It can be understood this way..." Xu Xiaoshou shrugged, regained his serious expression, and added a bit of joking, "But from your petition, I saw not only respect, but also playfulness."
"What do you mean?" Beibei frowned. Although she had given the order of Master Xuanji, she was very serious about the battle.
"Three days..." Xu Xiaoshou pointed at the bronze book and said with a faint smile:
"Do you think I'm a fool? After three days, the day lilies will be cold. It's not such a good way to delay time."
"Let me guess, who do you really want to invite to deal with me... Yue Gongli, Ai Cangsheng?"
After a pause, Xu Xiaoshou sneered and said: "No, Beibei, are you so unsure of yourself? Being timid before fighting is a taboo against the enemy!"
Beibei's face turned red again, but he said stubbornly:
"You think too much, Xu Xiaoshou."
"The battle of the Seven Sword Immortals should be announced to the five regions of the mainland, and everyone in the world should be invited to witness it. This is a spectator competition."
"The battle is just the beginning. After that, I have to ask the Feng Family of the Southern Territory to send someone over to supervise the battle while waiting for the spectators to enter."
"After the Feng family comes, they have to set up a 'preaching mirror' to transmit the scene of the Sword Immortal's battle to the major royal cities in the five regions of the mainland, and take a picture of the Feng family as a souvenir for future generations."
"This battle is the focus of everyone's attention!"
After counting his fingers, Beibei pressed his sword and looked at it seriously again:
"After all, three days is considered a short time. After all, our battlefield is in the Central Region, not in the Southern Region."
"The main body of ancient sword cultivators, when the new list of Seven Sword Immortals came out, had already moved to the southern region to wait for challenges and watch the battle."
As if he remembered something, Beibei said slightly excitedly: "If you want to go to the Southern Region to fight, even better, I will accompany you at any time!"
Go to the Southern Region to fuck birds?
If you go, isn't it the same as letting the old lady go?
After hearing this, Xu Xiaoshou frowned and looked back at Lian Shuangxing. He completely forgot that this guy was blind and just raised his eyebrows and looked at him.
He is quite interested in fighting in front of the world.
Although there may not be any passive value gained through the "preaching mirror", there are enough people in Yujing City, so it doesn't matter.
Mainly for "name"!
Fame nourishes the swordsman.
Fame nourishes famous swords.
When it comes to "name", Ba Zunzhen has pioneered it, and Xu Xiaoshou also wants a piece of the pie.
But he didn't expect that the battle between the Seven Swordsmen would be such a complicated process.
After hearing this, all the respect that I had just gained for cultivating the ancient sword was gone.
What kind of bullshit would they rather bend than bend? They are just a bunch of stubborn donkeys who stick to the old rules!
As the leader of the stubborn donkeys, Lei Shuangxing did not help his own people, but nodded and said: "I just came from the Southern Territory."
This guy……
He is already in the Southern Territory and wants to pick up the people on the Seven Swords Immortal List one by one. Does he also want to get a share of the pie?
Xu Xiaoshou immediately became vigilant. He won't pick on me in the future, right?
I still haven't figured out what level Tears of Two Lines is at. It seems that I've always seen him pretending to be cold and arrogant, but I've never seen him take action with all his strength.
"Do we really have to go through this process?" Xu Xiaoshou turned to look at Mr. Siren and confirmed for the second time.
"If you want to fight, you must go through this process." Mei Siren turned the fan over with a smile on his face and a kind look on his face.
Xu Xiaoshou looked at the four characters "Shu Zi Gan Er" and fell into deep thought...
Old stubborn donkey!
Lei Xier smiled at the sight.
Xu Xiaoshou didn't change, but his conscience suddenly awakened, he reflected on himself, and became serious from being careless - everyone loses control of their emotions sometimes.
"Three days is too long!"
Soon, Xu Xiaoshou waved his hands and said impatiently: "Three days are enough for me to massacre the city thirty times. You don't need to think about delaying time."
Yu Jingcheng was scared to death.
Bei Bei's face also turned ugly: "Ancient rituals are ancient rituals. If you want to enjoy the conveniences that the name of Seven Swordsmen brings to you, you must also bear corresponding obligations. The rituals cannot be abolished!"
"What kind of obligations? I haven't even started to enjoy the conveniences yet. All I have to do is cause a lot of trouble. Why are you talking about obligations with me? That's nonsense!"
Xu Xiaoshou waved his sword, looked at the other two ancient sword cultivators outside Yujing City from a distance, and called them by name:
"You, and you, do you also want to challenge me?"
"They are all ancient sword cultivators. There is no need to pretend. They look like they want to fight at first sight."
"My time is precious, and I give each of you a stick of incense. This is the greatest respect."
"After three sticks of incense, I want to end the battle and go to the Holy Mountain. I don't have time to waste it here with you!"
The people in the city followed Master Shou's gaze and looked back, only to see two figures flying far away outside the city.
"Lao Gu?"
"The number one swordsman, Guyu Gu Lao, is he really going to challenge Xu Xiaoshou?"
"Who is that girl? I've never seen her before..."
"Liu Fuyu! She is Liu Fuyu of the Sword Tower, ranked fourth among the Seven Sword Immortals, under Xiao Kongtong!"
"Wow, it looks good now..."
The person below feels good-looking, but Gu Yu's face is not very good-looking, and he is obviously a good breed of stubborn donkey. "Rituals are etiquette. After the Civil War, after you have completed your training, Gu will fight you again."
"Oh? Wheel fighting?" Xu Xiaoshou said, "Don't bother me, I have invincible battery life, you can just fight in groups, or so to speak..."
"I, Xu Xiaoshou, challenge you three to a duel!"
Thanks to "Northern Genius Jiang Nayi" for the reward of 10,000 yuan to Tears, and to "A Wild Ghost" for the reward of the fog lamp.
Tears flowed: "Thank you, but those related to Dao Xuanji must be killed if they deserve it."
Fog Lamp Monster: "I've been promoted to a fifth-level star. I'm happy. I want to go out for a walk."
