Chapter 52: When the big thing ends, let's see what happens
After Qi Ye and Dian Qimin were recruited by Lin Man'er, Eguchi Ichiro was moved. Judging from his current situation, he basically can't go back to his hometown, and the overseas forces in Fusang County will not take him in. In this way, either the grass will be left behind, or the master will do things.
In contrast, Ichiro Eguchi naturally chose the latter. After all, Lin Man'er got four spirit mines, and there must be no shortage of resources. Moreover, after this incident, Lin Man'er also had to consider developing his own power.
After careful consideration, Eguchi Ichiro took the initiative to express his willingness to serve under Lin Man'er. Lin Man'er hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Why don't we fight too?" ”
Ichiro Eguchi understood what Lin Man'er meant, and this was obviously a test for him. However, judging from Lin Man'er's combat power in fusing Yan Ji, he may not be able to show his worth. In other words, not only was he beaten in vain, but he was also likely to be rejected by Lin Man'er.
Just when Eguchi Ichiro was in a dilemma, Chongwulou also moved his mind. So, he decided to use Ichiro Eguchi as a stepping stone to fight for a place for himself and his wife. However, while the idea is good, it can be difficult to implement.
Lin Man'er listened to Chongwulou's suggestion and asked Eguchi Ichiro if he agreed. Eguchi Ichiro naturally understands that Chongwulou is not well-intentioned, but as long as he doesn't fight Lin Man'er, then what is he afraid of?
The two sides fought, and Ichiro Eguchi took the lead. I saw that he had an ice knife in his left hand and a fire knife in his right hand, and there were two completely different sword qi when he went up. Chong Wulou was not a waste, I saw him holding a soft sword and slamming it in from between the two sword qi. The blade of the sword travels like a snake, driving the ice and fire sword qi away left and right.
Eguchi Ichiro immediately changed his moves, only to see him cross the two swords of ice and fire, each with two systems of aura, and send out a cross sword qi attack. Seeing this, Chong Wulou did not retreat but advanced, only to see his sword standing on the ground, his body churning up, and drawing out a bowstring-like sword qi to intercept it. Not only that, but he himself even approached Ichiro Eguchi with his sword and tried to fight in close quarters.
Eguchi Ichiro is a double-knife school, although it is different from mixed knife cultivation, but its essence is inseparable from the "law". On the contrary, Chongwulou is a real pure sword cultivator. Therefore, in hand-to-hand combat, Chongwulou has an advantage.
Ichiro Eguchi is naturally aware of this. It stands to reason that he should distance himself and play to his double-stream advantage. However, this fight is about his future. Therefore, even if he should retreat, he cannot retreat.
The two sides were entangled together, and it didn't take long for Chongwulou to leave many sword marks on Eguchi Ichiro's body with his dexterous and changeable swordsmanship. If it continues, Ichiro Eguchi will inevitably be seriously injured and defeated.
Lin Man'er watched the fierce battle between the two, and a thought suddenly came to her heart. So, he asked Pei Yongsi: "Senior Brother Pei, what do you think of Chongwulou's swordsmanship?" ”
Pei Yongsi replied truthfully: "Dexterous as a snake, advancing and retreating like a rabbit, good swordsmanship." But ......"
"But what?"
"However, I always feel a little awkward, but I can't say what is awkward."
Lin Man'er nodded and said, "Well, I think so too." After speaking, he continued to observe Chongwulou's shot.
Interestingly, he always felt like a snake flying when he looked at it. It's just that Chongwulou's spirit snake seems to be a little too rough, and it doesn't look good to dance. Thinking of this, he was happy in his heart, and asked Pei Yongsi again: "How are you comparing yourself to him?" ”
Pei Yongsi said with great confidence: "In the same realm, one sword is enough." ”
Interestingly, Lin Man'er hadn't said anything yet, when he saw Pei Jiangwei teach: "Si'er, the person who holds the sword, how can he be so arrogant? ”
As soon as the words fell, Lin Man'er retorted: "The person who holds the sword, if he is not arrogant, still holds the sword of a hammer." Moreover, I feel that Senior Brother Pei is already very polite. ”
As soon as these words came out, Pei Jiangwei was a little embarrassed. After all, Lin Man'er was praising his grandson who had high hopes, and as an elder, he couldn't refute it even if he could. What's more, it seems that it is impossible to refute.
Interestingly, after Chongwulou heard this, his temper came up. I saw him fighting, and at the same time made a challenge to Pei Yongsi. Pei Yongsi was not polite, not only took it on the spot, but also said that he didn't need to wait for the sixth grade, and the fifth grade was fine.
Chongwulou was annoyed, and there was a mistake in his swordsmanship, and he was slashed by Eguchi Ichiro. Yao Wuyan hurriedly transmitted the sound and told him to concentrate on the battle. However, the knife that Eguchi Ichiro slashed was accompanied by a flaming sword qi. Chong Wulou was affected by this, not only was his true qi blocked, but even the speed of his sword was slowed down.
Eguchi Ichiro seized the opportunity, and after forcing Chongwulou back, he performed a big killing move - ice and fire.
At this moment, Lin Man'er waved his hand to stop. Obviously, Chong Wulou couldn't stop this move. Ichiro Eguchi won, and he bowed his sword. Lin Man'er was overjoyed and said to Eguchi Ichiro: "There may be water and fire primordial stones in my Tiger Mountain, since you are a double knife stream, then guard there!" It's also convenient for you to practice. ”
When Ichiro Eguchi heard this, he sincerely bowed!
However, Chongwulou was not convinced. If it weren't for Pei Yongsi's influence on him, he was slashed by Ichiro Eguchi. Otherwise, he wouldn't have lost either.
Lin Man'er smiled and asked, "Do you think I deliberately favored him, right?" ”
Chongwulou didn't want to endure it anymore, and asked rhetorically, "Isn't it?" ”
Lin Man'er shook his head and said, "No, I didn't favor him. On the contrary, I'll give you a hint. It's just that you're too stupid to understand. ”
When Chong Wulou heard this, he recalled all the things before. It's a pity that until this time, he still couldn't figure it out. Seeing this, Lin Man'er sighed in great disappointment.
Pei Yongsi explained: "Although your swordsmanship is dexterous and fast, it lacks the domineering spirit that pure sword cultivation should have. Moreover, in terms of your personality, it is really not suitable for practicing soft swords. ”
After hearing this, Chong Wulou not only did not reflect on himself, but asked: "You are a yellow-mouthed child, how are you qualified to evaluate my swordsmanship?" ”
Pei Yongsi looked disdainful and said: "Hmph, it's also a miracle that a person like you can survive until now." ”
Fan Haoyang smiled and teased: "With the wife of the six-rank soul immortal to protect me, of course I can live until now." To be honest, even I was a little envious. ”
Chongwulou was already furious, but fortunately her wife spoke for him. "You don't know, it's not that my husband is not proficient, but that the swordsmanship he has learned is incomplete."
"Missing the luck part?" Lin Man'er blurted out.
"Yes! The swordsmanship that my husband learned is called the Spirit Snake Swordsmanship. It's a pity that the swordsmanship is not complete. But even so, my husband still stepped into the sixth grade with his intelligence. ”
"In this way, this spirit snake sword technique is not simple!" After a pause, he glanced at everyone and asked, "Do any of you know the origin of this swordsmanship?" ”
Everyone present shook their heads, but only Jin Sanpang looked confident. Lin Man'er was happy in her heart and asked, "It's your Xiluo again?" ”
"Of course! The people of the world are ignorant, and they only know that the famous sword has come out of Siro since ancient times. Don't forget, there is another sentence at the back, the sunset flowers bloom all over the sky. As for the spirit snake sword technique he practiced, it was the ancestral sword technique of the spirit snake sect in Xiluo. After a pause, he said with a wicked smile, "Moreover, the Spirit Snake Sect is all women. ”
Lin Man'er nodded slowly and said, "Oh, no wonder I feel that his sword posture is a little awkward, and his feelings are a matter of figure." ”
These words made the already embarrassing Chongwulou even more embarrassed. Actually, he didn't know that the Spirit Snake Sword Technique was for women. Moreover, the swordsmanship he obtained was recorded in the form of pictures and texts in the jade pendant, and it was impossible to distinguish between men and women!
Chongwulou sighed heavily, and said to Lin Man'er: "I know that my ability is limited, and I don't dare to ask to serve under you. However, my wife is a true six-rank soul immortal. I hope you will take them in for their spiritual practice. ”
After hearing this, Lin Man'er hesitated. It stands to reason that the six-grade soul immortal is hard to find. However, the amount required for his practice is not a small amount. Moreover, even if he fully funded, it did not mean that Yao Wuyan would sincerely serve him. Maybe even a rake!
Just when Lin Man'er hesitated, Yao Wuyan told her husband very clearly that if you are born, you will be the same, and if you die, you will be the same. Interestingly, when Fan Haoyang heard this, his heart was touched, and he actually offered to be willing to bear half of Yao Wuyan's cultivation resources. Not only him, but even Yuwazi and Huzi hoped that Lin Man'er could leave Yao Wuyan.
In this way, Lin Man'er couldn't agree even if he didn't agree. After all, the brother's face still has to be given. Moreover, since it was decided to keep Yao Wuyan, it means that Chongwulou must also stay. For this reason, Lin Man'er was a good person to the end, and said to Chong Wulou: "You don't want to practice the Spirit Snake Sword Technique anymore." When I get back to the academy, I'll find you a new one. ”
Chong Wulou naturally agreed, after all, he was already satisfied with his wife. The main thing, of course, is to wash away the notoriety of both male and female thieves. This is his duty as a husband to his wife.
After that, Lin Man'er planned to survey the spirit mine in Longshan. However, Yao Wuyan told Lin Man'er that the survey would be left to her. After Lin Man'er heard this, he suddenly heard the fact that Yao Wuyan was spying on his Purple Mansion before. So, he was curious: "What did you see in my Purple Mansion?" ”
Yao Wuyan twitched in his heart, and hurriedly explained: "My subordinates haven't seen anything before, and they will never see it in the future." ”
Lin Man'er understood that Yao Wuyan had misunderstood him, but he didn't bother to explain. At the moment, let her return the Pei family's spiritual ore first, and then conduct a survey. Yao Wuyan told Lin Man'er that the couple had not been to the Pei family's spiritual mine.
After Lin Man'er heard this, he said to himself: "So, there is another soul immortal? But why didn't I meet him? ”
When Pei Jiangwei saw this, he had to sigh and consider himself unlucky. Subsequently, he took the Pei family and everyone back to his spiritual mine.
Lin Man'er also handed over the matter of the spiritual mine to Yu Wazi, and told the five people who collected it to obey Yu Wazi's dispatch. After that, he returned to Rongcheng with Dongfang Yunju, Kong Xinyu and others. As for the purpose, it was naturally in exchange for the bounty of the old man Bibo and the compensation for the theft of the spirit mine.
Dongfang Yunyan sighed with emotion when he heard that Lin Man'er had accepted five sixth-grade immortal monarchs. As for the bounty and compensation, there are only two words - no. Of course, in exchange, in the name of the state pastor, he revoked the reward order for the male and female thieves, Qi Ye and others. At the same time, he also advised Lin Man'er to strictly restrain him and not to cause another incident.
Lin Man'er had no choice but to return to the Meizhou branch to wait for the trip to the Moon Worship Sect fifteen years later.
