The people of Beiting love to fight duels in a different way than in other places.

Gu Shenwei still remembers the scene of the martial arts competition in the Central Plains, it was like a ritual, which required several days or even months of foreshadowing, both sides found relatives and friends to press the formation, invited at least three martial arts superintendents, time and place must be selected in advance, and relevant taboos must also be agreed in advance.

On the day of the official competition, the two sides also have to press their handprints on a life and death contract, saying that no matter whether they win or lose, they will not trouble each other again, or simply publicly declare that the point will stop.

Celebrities not only have their eyes, but they also have their mouths ready, and afterwards, they will be responsible for spreading the prestige of the victors.

In the whole process, there are countless reasons to give up halfway through the competition, and many times, it is precisely these unrealized competitions that win the greatest reputation, because behind every fight, there is a hero.

The way of martial arts competition in the Western Regions is similar to this, but all the procedures are simpler, the biggest difference is that there is no position of the hero, everyone is waiting for the competition with anticipation, and if the preparation time is a little longer, it will cause dissatisfaction and complaints.

Spectators, most of whom don't know martial arts at all, play the roles of celebrities and friends and family, cheering on both sides, deciding winners and losers, and most of all making them crazy about betting.

In the Western Regions, jousting is a business, and it is all about money from beginning to end, and the winner is rewarded with real money, and as for fame, it is just a by-product and will soon be forgotten.

In the North Garden, jousting or dueling is a language of the locals, and when a matter is complicated and it is difficult to argue the result, they will compete in martial arts, and the victory or defeat represents not only strength and honor, but also justice and whose side the gods are on.

Such a contest can be carried out anytime and anywhere, without an agreement, an audience and a referee, "the ancestral god testifies", the simple four words represent everything, when saying this, the people of Beiting will stretch out their hands and point to the sky, indicating that the killing and splashing blood that is about to start are of a sacred nature.

Tosai, the son of the Solar King, wants to compete with the Dragon King in the style of the North Court, and in his opinion, this is not a violation of the promise of the old Khan, but the best way to solve the problem.

The ancestral gods testified. "The blood of the Khan's descendants will not be shed in vain, allowing our enemies to rot in the grass and our enemies to be trampled by the hooves of horses." ”

For the people of Beiting, this is a very common poisonous oath, the people on the side of the dragon king feel that it is not very pleasant to hear, but for a while they can't think of-for-tat words, the old man Mu is a person from Beiting, but he rarely competes with others, and he is not familiar with this kind of tune.

He also pointed to the sky and said in a higher and firmer voice: "The heavens are above, and the name of the dragon king must not be dishonored, let those who despise him bring shame upon themselves, and let those who challenge him be destroyed." ”

The duel between the "Ancestral God" and the "Heavens" began.

Shangguan Fei's eyes lit up, and he looked at Long Chuanyun's tall and straight body with reverence, and he was so moved that he almost cried.

Each of them took twenty steps back, giving way to a flat field of grass, and the contest began immediately.

The first person sent by Beiting was the soldier who was facing the old man Mu, although he was dressed as a cavalryman, he pulled out a long sword that was rarely seen in Beiting and the Western Regions.

"Under the command of the Lower Sun Yao King, the small soldier Gu Da would like to ask for advice from the master of the Dragon Army. ”

The way the man spoke indicated that he was from the Central Plains and was using a false name.

Long Chuanyun came out to fight, and said loudly: "The swordsman of the Great Snow Mountain, the Dragon King's guardian Long Chuanyun, is here to compete with you." ”

There wasn't much nonsense on either side, and it was done immediately.

Among all the swordsmen of the Great Snow Mountain, he received the most lessons from the Dragon King, not only did his sword skills become more and more exquisite, but his internal skills also improved by leaps and bounds because of the cultivation of the Five Chapters of Daoless Divine Skills.

The Central Plains swordsman with the pseudonym Gu Da couldn't see the depth, he and Old Man Mu had a palm, but Old Man Mu couldn't guess the origin and strength of the other party, but just cast a suggestive glance at the Dragon King, feeling that Long Chuanyun might not be an opponent.

Long Chuanyun is indeed not an opponent, he did not lose in the knife technique, but the light skill is too bad, after chasing more than 30 moves all the way, he was stabbed in the wrist by the opponent's backhand, the knife did not leave his hand, but he involuntarily lowered down more than a foot.

Long Chuanyun still had a chance to fight back, in fact, he was also preparing to fight back, but Gu Da had already taken a few steps back and said "concede", indicating that he had won.

Shangguan Fei was disappointed, this competition started because of him, he was more afraid of losing than anyone else, "Hey, it's not over yet, why did you 'concede'?"

The swordsmen of the Great Snow Mountain are accustomed to playing like they are desperate, and there are many examples of the last Jedi counterattack in their bodies, but they are also very face-saving, Gu Da's sentence of "concede" makes Long Chuanyun unable to adapt, and if he continues to fight, he seems to be dead-faced, hesitates for a while, and says: "You won." ”

Gu Da nodded, retreated into the group, and quickly disappeared.

"I can't let him win. Shangguan Fei was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks, but Long Chuanyun only apologized to the Dragon King, "The Dragon King forgives the sin." ”

Gu Shenwei also nodded, did not reproach his captain of the guard, and then motioned to Old Man Mu.

Wang Sun Tuosai on the opposite side snorted coldly, Old Man Mu was one of his most important targets today, and he specially prepared a master for him.

The master was also dressed as a soldier, and remained in the last row, when the horse squeezed through the crowd, jumped to the ground, saluted Tosai, and turned to face the old man.

This man was also an old man, but he was tall and majestic, and he held a broad knife in his hand that was taller than the old man wood.

"Old Wood Devil, we haven't seen each other for a long time. ”

Old Man Mu was startled, and took a step back, "Aren't you Feng Tianhe, the King of the Heavenly Sword, how are you still alive." ”

The Ferris Sword King Feng Tianhe and Old Man Mu have been opponents for many years, more than ten years ago, the big chase was him, the old man Mu remembered clearly, he hit Feng Tianhe with one punch, and saw him die of anger with his own eyes, but he didn't expect to be alive.

"You're not dead, and I certainly can't die. Feng Tianhe's tone was full of suppressed hatred, several of his closest relatives died at the hands of Old Man Mu, he thought that the great revenge had been avenged, so he retired for many years, but as soon as he heard that Old Man Mu was still alive, he immediately accepted the invitation to re-emerge.

Old man Mu knew Feng Tianhe well, and he was naturally not afraid of him when he had ten successes, but now he was not sure of victory, "You are not dead, and I am not dead, let's even if we are even." ”

Feng Tianhe snorted, then laughed, and his laughter became more and more desolate, "Flattening? My two sons and three brothers don't look at each other, you say it's flat?"

Old Man Mu turned around and glanced at Shangguan Ru, "I'm not the old Man Mu anymore, you see, I've become shorter, and I've changed my ways, and I'm ...... I haven't killed anyone in over a year, really. ”

Feng Tianhe's expression was grim, "Are you kidding me? You have to tease your prey every time you kill someone, and this hasn't changed." ”

Old Man Mu turned around and glanced at Shangguan Ru again, looking innocent, "Okay, you don't believe me, I don't blame you, but I don't compete with you." ”

"What?"

"I admit defeat, you win this game. ”

"No way!"

Two voices sounded at the same time, one was the angry Feng Tianhe, the other was Shangguan Fei, although the old man Mu's skills were weakened, he was still a first-class master, if he admitted defeat, there was no hope for four wins in seven games.

Old Man Mu didn't care about the opinions of these two people, "Dragon King, can I admit defeat?"

"Whatever you want. ”

With the permission of the Dragon King, Old Man Mu ran back to Shangguan Ru's side and smiled at Feng Tianhe, "There are many opportunities for revenge, don't worry, I don't live ......" Seeing Shangguan Ru's stern expression, Old Man Mu immediately closed his mouth, lowered his head and muttered quietly.

"Old Demon Mu, back then, you crisscrossed the north of the Tianshan Mountains, but you didn't expect that now you have become a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death. Feng Tianhe also wanted to provoke Old Man Mu.

"I've changed, to be a good person, you have to be greedy for life and afraid of death......" Old Man Mu couldn't help but reply.

Feng Tianhe held the knife and was hesitating whether to rush forward and kill the enemy directly, and Tosai behind him had already given an order: "Our side has two wins, and we are ready to fight the third game." ”

Feng Tianhe hated and retreated, thinking that Old Man Mu was right in what he said, and there were many opportunities for revenge.

Tosai's side sent a black-faced man, who called himself Yang San, armed with two knives, and was obviously also an anonymous person from the Central Plains.

Gu Shenwei set his eyes on Shangguan Fei, "It's your turn." ”

Shangguan Fei looked left and right, confirming that the Dragon King was indeed speaking to himself, "I, I...... It's not good to go crazy. ”

"Then throw in the towel. ”

"Wait. Shangguan Fei began to wonder if the Dragon King was using this opportunity to sell himself to Beiting, "Dragon King, I'm a member of the Dragon Army, right?"

"Sort of. ”

"Don't 'count', just 'yes'. ”

"Yes. ”

"Well, sister, I'm still your brother, right?"

"Of course. ”

After getting the double guarantee, Shangguan Fei reluctantly walked into the venue, he originally learned the Jinpeng sword technique, but now his fist is more powerful, "Yang San, no matter what your real name is, I remind you that there are already dozens of people who have died under my fist, in case you also die, don't blame me, you brought it on yourself." ”

Yang San laughed contemptuously, the kid in front of him was as timid as a mouse, he was by no means a master, and the so-called killing of Wang Sun with his bare hands was probably an accident.

Shangguan Fei sighed and said to Tosai on the other side: "I don't know that the person who died is Wang Sun, and besides, why does he have to risk going to the untouchable area? Since he went, why should he blame others for beating him to death? Can he only kill people, and the other party can't fight back?"

These few words are reasonable, if Shangguan Fei's voice was not so trembling, the effect would be even better.

The muscles on Tosai's face twitched, "The Khan King's bloodline is different from your group, you are right, as long as it is a grassland covered area, we are only allowed to kill, and no one else is allowed to fight back." ”

Gu Shenwei thought to himself, his father Gu Lun probably couldn't stand the stimulation of similar language, so he acted angrily.

Even Shangguan Fei was enraged, clenched his fists, and strode towards his opponent.
