Since these "three young men of the Xiang family" have the qualifications to be selected as "bait" by Yue Kuohai, they are naturally extraordinary.
The three famous Xiang brothers in the world are the eldest brother Xiang Qingfeng, the second brother Xiang Qingyan and the third brother Xiang Qingque. The three brothers were all born to the same mother, and they were all good at martial arts. The youngest among them, Xiang Qingque, who just turned 30 this year, is able to rank among the quasi-first-class masters in the world with his unique "Red Tip Bird Feather Dart", let alone his two who have been practicing for longer. Brother.
Xiang Qingfeng, the eldest son of Xiang, is the most powerful among the three brothers. His nickname in the world is "Langya Swordsman" and he wields a pair of precious weapons - Langhuan Sword and Yagan Sword. The swords owned by the boss of the Xiang family have a great origin. They were once owned by the Langya Sword Demon, which was the most powerful demon in the world a hundred years ago. They are legendary weapons second only to the four divine weapons of the "Sun, Moon and Stars". The ancestors of the three brothers of the Xiang family defeated and killed the Langya sword demon eighty years ago and obtained his swordsmanship inheritance and sword. The two have been passed down from generation to generation by the ancestors of the Xiang family, and Xiang Qingfeng is the heir to the swordsmanship of this generation of the Xiang family.
The second son Xiang Qingyan's kung fu is slightly inferior to Xiang Qingfeng's, but his light kung fu is second to none among the three. Even if his light kung fu level is compared horizontally in the entire world, it is difficult to find an opponent among his peers, so he is called outside. It's called "Treading the Clouds and Flying Swallows".
The two mentioned above are both top-notch warriors in the martial arts world, and the third son, Xiang Qingque, is even inferior in comparison. But his talent is actually astonishing, and his slightly lower combat power is just because of his age, and his internal strength cannot keep up with Xiang Qingfeng and Xiang Qingyan. When it comes to concealed weapon proficiency alone, Xiang Qingque's martial arts skills are comparable to those of fellow practitioner Ruan Dandan. His unique hidden weapon, the Red-Shaped Bird Feather Dart, was nicknamed "Red-Shaped Bird" by people in the martial arts world.
To sum up, the reason why these three people are so valued by Yue Kuohai is just two words - they are strong enough.
In Yue Kuohai's plan, the lower limit of the bait's strength is that it can at least trade with a first-class master for one extreme. They can be defeated, but they can't let the opponent win too easily, otherwise they won't be able to consume like high-level cannon fodder. The three youths of this family are undoubtedly far beyond this standard. Although they are only three people and not a powerful force, they are also one of the favorable contenders for the divine treasure in this trip.
Tomorrow, on the sixth day of May, before the competition for the divine treasure officially begins, it is something that everyone in the world would love to see by attacking the strength of other competitors early and thus gaining a late-mover advantage. As the three young men of the Xiang family are the favorites to win the treasure, how could there not be large, medium and small forces coming to eliminate dissidents? After all, there are only three of them. Theoretically speaking, as long as the plan is appropriate enough, it is possible for a person with low martial arts skills to knock a top master off the ladder without even requiring a sophisticated strategy.
Jianghu is such a magical place. Many times, "strong" and "weak" are not absolute and are full of countless possibilities. At the end of the previous chapter, Yue Kuohai laughed for no reason because of what was happening now, a possibility that he had not considered before.
When martial arts reaches a certain level, you can naturally feel the internal strength of others. People with profound knowledge, broad vision, and rich experience can even judge the depth of other people's cultivation, how many years they have practiced martial arts, and their mental state by observing their internal strength. The pros and cons, etc. The two senior military attachés of the Ming Dynasty naturally belonged to such people, but Lin He's perception was not as sensitive as Yue Kuohai's. After a few breaths, he realized in hindsight: "Huh? The whereabouts of this family's Sanqing are very purposeful. Sex seems to be running towards..."
"The old beggar at the corner of the street." Yue Kuohai pointed to a group of gray figures squatting under the wall a hundred steps away, and said first: "This man's internal strength is strong and simple, and he is as still as still water, so he has a lot of hidden power. Well, if it weren't for that moment just now
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
I couldn't really detect the murderous aura that broke out in him. "
Lin He looked intently and saw that the "old beggar" Yue Kuohai mentioned was quite unique in appearance.
He basically looked like a farmer, with dark complexion and lean limbs. His exposed hands and one forearm were clearly articulated, with protruding veins but full of strength. His face was full of bitterness and hatred.
As for the clothing... there doesn't seem to be anything worth mentioning. It's just a gray robe, and it has been whitened due to years of rubbing and washing, but it is clean and has no patches.
Judging from this description, this person is more like an old farmer who lives a shabby life. He is not poor enough to beg for food. How come he is defined as a beggar by Yue Kuohai?
Simple, because Yue Kuohai knew him and knew his background and identity. The book speaks for itself, and this person is Yu Beifeng, the left guardian of the Beggar Clan, who is a very senior master in the world.
Yu Beifeng, Xiang Jia Sanqing, and Jin Yiwei were like a mantis stalking the cicada, with the oriole behind. It's just that the latter was hiding in the dark, and the three Jianghu guests of the Xiang family never noticed that they were following behind them, let alone Yu Beifeng, who was farther away from Yue Lin and the other two.
"Master Yue, things seem to be different from what we expected." Lin He recalled the scene of Feng Yanque and three people strolling on the street a quarter of an hour ago: "Now that I think about it, they are not wandering, but investigating other people in the world. people."
Yue Kuohai watched expressionlessly as the three young men of the Xiang family walked towards Yu Beifeng: "It doesn't matter, although Xiang Qingfeng and the other three are relatively weak compared to the sects dispatched in groups, they have to deal with an old man who is no longer in his prime. Yu Beifeng, the protector of the Beggar Clan, is more than enough."
"Obviously he is prey, but he behaves like a hunter... Well, it seems that this young man in this family is indeed very brave."
In many literary and artistic works, the adjective "courageous" does not appear alone. It is often followed by "but", and "but" is followed by "stupid", "futile", "useless" and other similar words. A series of words with negative connotations. Yue Kuohai originally wanted to follow the routine and say such a sentence, but Lin He interrupted him inadvertently.
"Well...according to the information from the people below, the leader of the Beggar Clan who arrived in Beijing to seize the treasure this time is not only Yu Beifeng, but also two elders and dozens of elite disciples. What's more, the Beggar Clan, the Purple Shirt Sect, the Fei Feng The Liujian Sect has formed an offensive and defensive alliance a few days ago. It is not easy for Xiang Jiasanqing to deal with a beggar gang. If the other two factions are added, they will definitely lose." Lin He settled the accounts for Xiangjia Sanqing, and the result was unacceptable. Optimistic: "Of course, we Jin Yiwei know this information, but they don't know it. If these three brothers came to the city with the idea of killing people on sight, then I have nothing to say."
Even Lin He himself didn't expect that his casual ridicule at the end of the sentence actually told the truth.
The plan of the three people of the Xiang family is really "Kill the Buddha if you stand in the way of the Buddha, and kill the devil if you stand in the way of the devil." You can say that this is not a plan at all, but at the same time you have to admit that in the face of absolute power, all tricks are "total failure", and the three brothers' ideas are not wrong in principle.
Since entering the city, Xiang Qingfeng, Xiang Qingyan, and Xiang Qingque have focused all their attention on identifying their competitors. It is true that Beijing is such a big city, and the possibility of an expert just entering the perception range of the three of them is very small, but there is no guarantee that one of them will really hit one.
Because Yue Kuohai and Lin He had higher cultivation levels and learned more sophisticated Qi Concealing Techniques, they were able to follow him steadily for a long time. Yu Beifeng's foundation in this area was a bit poor. The old man squatted here for several days in order to investigate the Jianghu people who passed through Xianyi Fang and surrounding areas. Yu Beifeng had never met anyone of the same level as him before.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
His identity can still be hidden, but Xiang Qingfeng, the eldest of the three young men of the Xiang family, is familiar with the method of internal strength investigation.
It would be fine if the one coming from the opposite side was a top-notch master, but now there were three coming at once, and Yu Beifeng couldn't stand it. After the murderous intent broke out, the three young men of the Xiang family continued to advance without retreating, which made him realize: these three brothers were not afraid of themselves and the gang of beggars behind them, and they were just here to kill him.
Thinking of this, Yu Beifeng stood up and turned back to leave; the three Xiangs also accelerated almost at the same time. Because the four of them were still on the street at this time, it was too conspicuous to perform Qing Kung Fu, so the chase scene they co-starred with was not very intense, and the running path was basically limited to the ground. Therefore, even if it is "Stepping on the Clouds and Flying Swallow", the extremely light skill is still difficult to achieve. After running forward and chasing for a quarter of an hour, the distance between the three brothers and their target, Yu Beifeng, did not shorten much.
"Brother!" Xiang Qingyan stepped forward and chased Xiang Qingfeng side by side, asking for instructions: "We are inconvenient in the downtown area, but now we have reached a secluded place, why not..."
Xiang Qingque's internal strength and endurance were slightly inferior, so he fell two or three meters behind the two of them. At this moment, he also shouted loudly: "Yes, brother, there are a lot of people around here. How long can we wait if we don't move now?" ?”
A few dozen meters diagonally behind the three of them, Yue Kuohai and Lin He were hanging calmly and calmly behind the Xiang family's Sanqing. The amount of activity just now was like a warm-up for the two big men of the Jin Yiwei. Lin He's ear skills were good. He could hear the conversation between the three brothers even from such a distance. He commented: "Are these three people stupid? They don't realize that they have fallen into a trap?"
"There are not naive people in the world." Yue Kuohai was calm, not minding that the bait he chose was already behind bars: "As long as you have the strength to match this innocence. Well, the Xiang brothers... … Let’s just say there is.”
Master Yue’s words, translated and given as an example from our modern perspective, are probably: If your family is rich and powerful, and you are not afraid of blackmail at all, and can even make the blackmailer pay a heavy price, then you can naturally He went to help the fallen old man without any scruples or psychological pressure.
While the two were talking, the old man fell down... Oh no, it was Yu Beifeng, the left guardian of the Beggar Clan. Yu Beifeng stopped at this moment and looked coldly at the three young men of the Xiang family who were chasing after him.
"The three juniors of the Xiang family have been chasing me for so long. Do they really don't pay attention to me, an old beggar?" Yu Beifeng revealed two meanings in his words: First, he knew that the three members of the Xiang family Qing; second, he felt a little weak in his heart, but not completely. If he were to fight one against three, Yu Beifeng would definitely be no match; but since he had led his pursuers here, the outcome would be unpredictable.
It was Xiang Qingfeng, the boss of the Xiang family, who replied: "Senior Yu, the three of us don't dare to ask for advice. Naturally, we only dare to ask you for advice if we have the confidence."
In the distance, Yue Kuohai and Lin He were overjoyed when they heard this. They were thinking about the same thing: "Have you got the confidence? You have a der~~"
The next second, Xiang Qingfeng shouted loudly: "Seniors, please come out! Meet our Xiang family members!"
After a few breaths, four figures emerged suddenly from the northeast, southeast, northwest, and southwest directions. Counting Yu Beifeng, these five people stood like a five-pointed star, just surrounding the three young men of the Xiang family.
Among the four new players, Yue Kuohai and Lin He are definitely not among them. In fact, neither of them has been discovered by anyone so far. And those four people are:
The eight elders of the Beggar Clan—Huang Yuan and Cui Kuai;
The leader of the Purple Shirt Sect——Qiu Fushu;
And the sword leader of the Feiliu Sword Sect—Liu Dafu.
