Chapter 428: Girl Ling'e
Young men wearing green Taoist robes were practicing sword techniques together on the sword flat in the mountains. They were in groups of three, five, or seven. They all saw extraordinary light skills. If Yi Xifeng was here, he would definitely You will be surprised by the cultivation of these people.
Judging from the fluctuations in their internal energy, they have all reached the realm of Mang, and the leading few have even faintly entered the realm of half-step knights.
At this moment, a girl with beautiful features ran to the side of Jianping and shouted quietly: "Dear brothers and sisters, Elder Feng has another famous sword out of the furnace. Come with me to the sword washing pool to have a look!"
One sentence immediately attracted a crowd of young people on Jianping to watch. A man in the lead looked at the woman who was speaking and said with a smile: "Junior Sister Ling'e, you came here from Qianzhu Peak just to tell everyone this? "
This cute girl named Ling'e, who looked to be only fourteen or fifteen years old, blushed slightly when she heard the young man's words, and said coquettishly: "Senior Brother Changfeng, I kindly came here to tell all the senior brothers and sisters, you, why are you still making fun of me?" People..."
As he spoke, he ignored the smiling people gathered around Jianping, turned around and ran away.
"Tsk tsk, Senior Brother Changfeng, you are also an outer sect senior brother after all, you can't bully a younger junior sister!" A bright woman walked over with a purple dagger in her hand, but she did not blame the other party, after all, she also He knew clearly the character of the head of the outer sect and had no bad intentions.
The young man at the head chuckled, raised his hand and scratched his head, and said to the junior brothers and sisters around him: "Since Junior Sister Ling'e has made a trip, I naturally have to go and have a look!"
After that, he led a group of young people wearing blue robes and headed towards the Thousand Everests.
…
Qianzhu Peak is one of the hundreds of peaks in the Qingyun Mountains. Of course, the hundreds mentioned here refer to these famous peaks. If we include those barren mountains and wild ridges, there may be tens of thousands of peaks in the entire Qingyun Mountains. !
The reason why Qian Everest is more famous is, on the one hand, the unique natural scene on it, the Dzi Bead Rock. Another important reason is that it is one of the seven main peaks of the Qingyun Sect.
And the group of young people practicing swordsmanship on the Jianping Ping just now were the outer disciples of the Qingyun Sect.
Qian Everest occupies a large area, and the top of the mountain is still preserved, but a mansion has been artificially carved out nearly a hundred feet away from the highest point. It occupies an area of one hundred feet in radius. Although there is only one courtyard, there is a spring dug out here.
This spring water does not stop all year round. Although the terrain is close to the top of the mountain, the amount of water produced by the spring water is not very large, and it only forms a small pool in front of the courtyard.
In this pool, there are black and white stone balls as big as watermelons. The overall appearance is round and integrated, which is very strange. These stone balls are the unique sight of Qianqiang Mount - Dzi Bead Rock.
At this time, there were many people outside the courtyard, most of them young people wearing blue robes. Junior Sister Ling'e, who had just run down the mountain to report the news, was standing in the crowd waiting for something.
Soon, the door to the courtyard was slowly opened, and people could see clearly what was going on in the courtyard through the huge open door. I saw a huge bronze cauldron standing in the courtyard, and four men wearing green robes were sitting around the big cauldron.
At the same time, the four people raised their palms and pressed them against the bronze cauldron. Waves of scorching internal energy continued to emanate from the four people's bodies. The entire cauldron also turned red under the influence of the four people's internal energy. .
This huge bronze tripod attracted the attention of onlookers, and in an inconspicuous position in the courtyard, there was a Taoist platform, or altar, made of ice crystal jade.
There was an old man sitting on it, his eyes half-open and half-closed, with a trace of light inside. He was staring at the bronze tripod a few feet in front of him, muttering something in his mouth, obviously calculating something.
At this time, a young man dressed as a Taoist boy walked up to him and whispered a few words. The old man suddenly opened his eyes and raised his hand to move towards the bronze tripod a few feet away.
The big cauldron suddenly shook, and the lid on the cauldron was opened. A red light flew out of the cauldron in an instant.
He held Zhang's hand and fished it out. The red light and shadow circled three times over his head, and then he plunged into the pool in front of the courtyard. This red light and shadow carried an extremely high temperature, causing the surface of the pool water to boil in an instant, and the dzi beads and rocks also rolled at the bottom of the pool.
After three breaths passed, the boiling water on the pool had subsided, which meant that a thin layer of mist remained on the surface of the pool.
The people watching around could not hold back their excitement at this time, and some people murmured to their companions:
"Three Rolls of Dzi Beads! This must be a temple artifact, and maybe it already contains the sword spirit!"
"Not necessarily, we have to see what materials Elder Feng used this time! But the Dzi Bead Stone in the sword washing pool is also very accurate!"
Without giving the people watching around much time to discuss, the old man in the courtyard raised his hand, and a stream of light flew out of the sword washing pool. Those with sharp eyes could tell that it was a long sword!
And this old man sitting on the ice crystal platform is the "Elder Feng" mentioned by these young disciples!
This person's name is Feng Huzi, and he is the current chief elder of the outer sect of the Qingyun Sect. He is also the mountain master of Qianzhuang, and also serves as the elder of the inner sect.
At this time, a young man wearing a Taoist robe walked out of the courtyard. He stood at the door and looked around for a while. After a while, he whispered to someone in the crowd: "Ling'e, Ling'e! Come here, come here!"
The girl who ran to Jianping before to invite a group of senior brothers to watch the sword-making blinked and ran to him.
"Split this money with your brothers and sisters and thank them for coming." The young man threw a bag to the girl and ordered.
Ling'e was stunned for a moment while holding the money bag in her hand. She looked at the courtyard gate that was gradually closing. She turned to everyone who was still standing around and said, "Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to come here to witness the release of the spirit sword. These tea money , it’s too little for everyone to share it separately…”
The girl was still a little shy, but after all, she was surrounded by a group of fellow disciples. Although they belonged to different mountain peaks, they all understood each other, so she took the initiative to take her share, thanked her and left.
When it was the turn of Senior Brother Changfeng, who was the senior brother of the outer sect, he smiled and gave her the few taels of silver. Seeing the young man winking at her with a smile, Ling'e's face instantly turned red again.
Soon the fellow disciples outside the courtyard slowly dispersed, and the mountain peak returned to peace. She did not go back to find Elder Feng immediately, but walked to the sword-washing pool alone. The white mist evaporated from the "sword-washing" just now dispersed, leaving only the black and white stone balls scattered like gossip. , still lying quietly at the bottom of the pool.
Ling'e quietly took out a handful of flower petals from her pocket and scattered them into the sword washing pool. Because she knew that every time the sword was forged and washed, the water level in the pool would undergo a brief evaporation drop, followed by a surge in water volume.
At that time, these beautiful petals will rush down the mountain from the Thousand Everests and into Luojian Lake with the surge of water!
After all, Ling'e is still an innocent little girl who has grown up in the Qingyun Sect since she was a child. Although she is also familiar with the history of the Qingyun Sect and knows the grievances between the Yunxiao Sect and the Luo Yun Sect.
But after all, this is the Qingyun Sect. Even if it splits with Xiaoyuan Academy, it is still the top second-rate sect in the world! Growing up in such a powerful sect, Ling'e has been extremely protected by the brothers around her since she was a child, thus preserving her innocence.
Ling'e looked at the petals floating in the pond. She knew that early tomorrow morning, these petals would appear in Luojian Lake to the east of Qingyun City at the foot of the mountain. When the time comes, a group of white fish will be attracted and will surround these petals for a long time.
At first, she was also curious as to why these white fish liked to surround the petals washed down from the sword washing pool upstream. Later, the senior sister in the door told her that the water in the sword washing pool would temper the sword every time. There will be traces of impurities precipitated and then attached to the petals.
You must know that all the sword blades in the sect that need to be tempered in this sword washing pool are made of excellent materials. They often contain many kinds of heavenly materials and earthly treasures. Even the impurities are rich in the true essence of heaven and earth.
After these impurities are precipitated, they will adhere to the petals, so when they flow through Luojian Lake downstream, they will be surrounded by large groups of white fish.
Thinking of this, the girl stretched out her cute tongue and licked her pink lips, obviously craving for the delicious white fish.
…………Dividing line…………
Yi Xifeng and his party of four, as well as Zhao Da, the shopkeeper of the Pay Cloud Pawn Shop, did not evacuate the passionate group of people from Jiuhua Tower until late at night. As one of the most famous restaurants in Chunfeng City, the commotion at Jiuhua House this time was well known throughout the city.
Both businessmen and local people know that there is a wealthy owner on the ninth floor of Jiuhua Building.
Zhao Chao's face was very ugly, but something bad happened. He glanced at Zhao Long who was holding two swords, and glared at Yi Xifeng. He thought to himself: If it weren't for Master Long's sake, your family would Grandpa Zhao won’t accompany you, a fair little brat, to fool around!
When he thought of this, Shopkeeper Zhao felt an inexplicable pain in his body! A total of thirty thousand taels of silver! This amount of money is still a big figure even if it is placed in a rich and powerful salary list organization. After all, the reward for the heaven-level mission was only fifty thousand taels of silver, and he killed more than half of it in just one meal last night.
If you want to calculate it this way, if you eat at Jiuhua Tower for two days according to this specification, you can get a heaven-level mission, which is the life of a strong warrior in the chivalrous realm!
The sky-high consumption naturally brought great attention, and Yi Xifeng's phrase "Mr. Zhao will foot the bill!" quickly became the target of imitation by the young people in Qingyun City.
In addition, Zhao Chao is also a familiar face in Dongfeng City. Anyone who is interested will find out the details of their "Rate Cloud Pawn Shop", and many people speculate that this Young Master Zhao is likely to be the son of the owner of the pawn shop, that is, the Young Master!
Of course, these speculations were not what Yi Xifeng could have expected. The main purpose of doing what he did last night was to disgust Zhong Rui. As for the other purpose, it was done casually.
After all, the four of them came to Chunfeng Town to complete their mission. Although they did not know the specific arrangements, Zhao Chao had sent Peregrine Falcon back to Yinren Town yesterday to confirm the specific arrangements. There will be a reply later today.
But no matter what, according to Gao Ning's instructions, he has to have some dealings with the Qingyun Sect after all. Instead of letting the other party's spies find out the traces of his group, it is better to expose it himself first, making it known to everyone, and it counts as his own sincerity.
Just like a stranger who suddenly appears in your home without your knowledge, your first reaction must be that this guy is a "thief", right?
But if it was this stranger, he was informed by the community management that he had been repairing the cracks and leaks of the floor heating on each floor in the past two days. When you suddenly discover him, your first reaction must be, there is nothing wrong with the floor heating in my house, right?
Although the reason is simple, the other party can accept it even after producing the corresponding identity proof materials. But the bad impression left by the first kind will definitely have an impact.
…
Early in the morning, Yi Xifeng's door was knocked on by Li Xintian. Looking at the fair-skinned boy who was already covered in sweat, the girl knew that he had just finished a day of morning exercise.
Before the sun rises every day, the fair boy starts practicing drawing and swinging his sword, three thousand times a day! Do not avoid the cold or heat, and do not rest day or night!
Yi Xifeng smiled and let the other person into the room and asked, "Come here early in the morning. Do you want to have breakfast?"
Li Xintian rarely wears a mask when he is with him now. At this time, he blinked his beautiful eyes and said with a smile: "I'm not very hungry yet, so I'm not in a hurry."
Thinking about it, the five of them ate so much last night and invited so many people to dinner in the end that they really couldn't eat anything when they got up early in the morning. Yi Xifeng thought for a while and said, "Well, anyway, no matter how fast the letter from Yinren Town is, it will arrive later this afternoon. How about we go to Luojian Lake to take a look in the morning?"
Yesterday, when I was upstairs in Jiuhua Tower, I saw that the lake in the east of the city was very beautiful. In addition, the waiter in the shop also highly recommended it and even told a story about it, so a group of teenagers planned to go there and have a look.
Li Xintian nodded, and then left the pawn shop after Yi Xifeng tidied up a little.
The two of them did not inform Zhao Long and Lin Lei. In fact, Zhao Long was okay. After all, he supported Yi Xifeng's decision yesterday. However, Lin Lei said that he and Yi Xifeng did not deal with each other very much, although it was a matter of childhood. After becoming a bodyguard, the conflict between the two was not as sharp as before.
But it is obviously impossible to say that the two of them have become particularly good partners because they did not know each other without fighting. After all, deep down, Lin Lei still looked down upon Yi Xifeng, who was born an orphan. Of course, this was due to his hidden inferiority complex.
In Lin Lei's understanding, fate is determined by birth, just like his fate is for the Lin family. As the grandson of retainer Lin Dongyue, Lin Lei's fate was destined when he was born. So when he saw this fair-skinned young man who didn't believe in fate and had prospered from an orphan, the imbalance in his heart became even more distorted.
Therefore, his attitude towards Yi Xifeng was one of naked disgust and jealousy. Of course, due to the other party's strong strength, he also had a hint of fear.
It was this fear that made Yi Xifeng give up the idea of dealing with this person. He knew that he could not make everyone like him, just like an author, it is difficult to write something that everyone likes.
But this person is the only one who still has a trace of fear, so at the very least, Lin Lei is a usable person, not only for Yinren, but also for Yi Xifeng if there is a chance!
