Episode 250: In case of an ancient sword
The first competition regardless of the results of the preliminaries, ending with Jiang Chen narrowly defeating Xunzi, although the two of them were not simply fighting by force, but, compared with a simple martial arts battle, their competition was obviously more dangerous, not only testing internal strength, but also focusing more on wisdom, which was a comprehensive contest of wisdom and strength.
"The second game, or now it's the real first game. Fusu looked around, looked at the Confucians, and asked with a smile, "I wonder who is willing to show what they can do?"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the arena suddenly became quiet, and it was obvious that the previous battle had aroused the fighting spirit in everyone's hearts.
Seeing Fusu looking at himself in a flash, among the three heroes of Qilu, Zhang Liang's eyes flowed, and his brain had begun to calculate quickly:
"The empire is prepared this time, and there are many candidates who can fight, but in the Little Sage Village, only me and the two senior brothers can fight. Gongsun Linglong failed in the previous battle, and Fusu will not use her again. Chu Nangong is very old, and he has helped me many times, so I don't have to worry. Zhao Gao is the head of the net, and it is said that his cultivation is unfathomable, but as the commander of the CRRC Prefecture, he is a powerful person in the empire, and there are six sword slaves present, so he will definitely not appear. So the most likely outgoing this time is them!"
The mood fell for a moment, Zhang Liang almost subconsciously set his eyes on the Shengqi and Six Sword Slaves behind Zhao Gao, the light in his eyes flickered, and vaguely, there were infinite calculations:
"Sheng Qi and Wei Zhuang fight, do not fall behind, the strength is close to the Guigu double sword; And Tianzong Xiaomeng has always been hidden in the world, retreating and cultivating, but this time he came at the invitation of Fusu, and he must not be a wall-watcher. As for Jiang Chen, since this person has already made a move, he will never strike again, the red queen has the power of the war demon god, and he is good at large-scale wars, and the lethality is too huge, I am afraid that he will not easily make a move on this occasion, so it seems that the best way is to take the initiative to choose an opponent!"
The spark of wisdom flickered, all the thinking was only completed in the moment of lightning, Zhang Liang's strategy was not idle, although it has not yet reached the peak state, but it is not to be underestimated, at the moment, I saw him stand up, walked to the field, and said warmly: "Confucian Zhang Liang, please advise!"
"Huh?" With a deep groan, Chu Nangong couldn't help but think to himself: "In this competition, the situation is obviously unfavorable to Confucianism, the ovary, I don't know how you want to deal with it?"
Jiang Chen saw the situation of the two of them in his eyes, and couldn't help but sneer: "Sure enough, is Zhang Liang the real candidate for Huangshi Tianshu in the mind of this old guy Chu Nangong? It's a pity, now that the matter of Huangshi Tianshu has been exposed, I want to see how you complete the handover." ”
In the field, I saw Zhang Liang facing Fusu, and said respectfully: "Before the sword competition, the ovary had a rash request, and I hope that the son will agree!"
"But it doesn't hurt to say?" Of course, Fusu would not refuse, he came to the Little Sage Village this time, and he just blindly wanted to exert coercion, but wanted to subdue Confucianism through both grace and power, so in the face of Zhang Liang, the three masters of the Little Sage Village, he naturally showed great patience.
"Renyun, if you meet an ancient sword, you can see a gentleman. As Zhang Liang spoke, he turned his eyes to look at the six sword slaves, and said with a smile: "Yes, the ovary wants to consult with these brothers who are in charge of the eight swords of the king of Yue." ”
Fusu immediately turned his eyes to look at the past, frowned and said, "Six Sword Slaves, you want to challenge them?"
"What do you think?" Zhao Gao then asked, they are all smart people, they naturally understand Zhang Liang's intentions, when they are at a disadvantage, it is wise to take the initiative to choose an opponent.
The six of them glanced at each other, and immediately stepped forward in confusion, came to the opposite side of Zhang Liang, and without saying a word, he pulled out his sword and said proudly: "Let's do it!"
Zhang Liang shook his head, and replied slowly: "Since the purpose of this sword competition is to discuss the Tao with the sword, it is natural to ask for advice." After a pause, Fang raised the saber in his hand and introduced with a smile: "Under this saber, named Ling Xu, the verdant leather scabbard, is natural, inlaid with eighteen Beihai blue blood pill hearts, the sword body is beautifully repaired, the whole body is crystal dazzling, and it cannot be forced to look at. It is ranked 10th in the sword spectrum. ”
"Wow, Mr. Zhang San's saber is really powerful, it's so suitable for him to use this sword!" Gongsun Linglong saw it in his eyes, and couldn't help but smile and admire his face.
"Ranked tenth, it's amazing, let's do it!" A trace of anger flashed in Chaoshen's eyes, he said, he really couldn't stand Zhang Liang's style, comparing swords to swords, but it was so verbose, if there were only two of them on the scene, he would have slashed it with a sword! Unfortunately, under the watchful eyes of everyone, he couldn't do this, especially with a Saint Realm master like Jiang Chen in charge, even if he didn't want to, he could only follow the rules of sword competition.
The rules, sometimes really annoying, but you have to follow them, without enough power, to challenge the rules, is equivalent to killing yourself.
"Wait. Zhang Liang was still tepid, and said indifferently with a little smile: "Brother Chaos, since it is about swords, do you also introduce your sword?"
"What?" Hearing this, the anger in the heart of the chaotic god was even worse, but there were still masters like Zhao Gao, Gongzi Fusu and even Jiang Chen here, and he couldn't be too presumptuous, so he responded with a little perfunctory in his mouth at the moment: "This sword is called 'chaotic god', there is nothing to introduce, let's do it!"
"Definitely. Zhang Liang said: "I wanted to ask the King of Yue about the eight swords just now, but the famous sword in the hands of Brother Chaoshen is the only one among the six of you that does not belong to the eight swords.
I couldn't bear it anymore, and the chaotic god suddenly stabbed out with a sword, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at Zhang Liang's throat: "Don't talk nonsense, you can only move your mouth, can't you do it?"
"Hands are naturally moving, the sword is like a gentleman, the victory or defeat is small, and the Tao is true. If you don't do it indiscriminately, wouldn't you become a mountain and wild horseman? It is even more contrary to the righteousness of the sword set by Gongzi. Seeing that the tip of the opponent's sword had already pierced less than an inch before his throat, Zhang Liang was still unmoved, and spoke, his tone was indifferent and calm: "If you don't care about the Tao and only win or lose, I can admit defeat now." Speaking of this, he paused slightly, and turned his eyes to look at Fusu: "I don't know what Gongzi thinks?"
"It's a good one not to work hard, just to talk about it. Fusu couldn't help but praise: "Brother Zifang is so eloquent, could it be that you know a lot about this chaotic god ancient sword?"
Zhang Liangdao: "This sword has an extraordinary origin, and it's a long story."
"Then you just make a long story short, right?" Jiang Chen said indifferently: "Childe has all opportunities, and he cherishes time like gold, how can he have extra time to accompany you here to talk about the ancient sword." ”
"Yes. Regarding Jiang Chen's words, Zhang Liang naturally did not dare to disobey, and introduced it eloquently at the moment: "There is a cloud in the Confucian patriarch's discourse: Zi Bu is silent, and the power is chaotic. Among them, this sword is mentioned, and its original meaning refers to the person who cultivates the country, the way of governing the country, following the law of heaven and earth, valuing people and people's livelihood, and not talking about strange and divine things. This sword was originally cast by the king of Yue Goujian, with a white horse, a white ox to sacrifice the god of Kunwu, after the casting did sharpen iron like mud, carrying wind and thunder, the power is incomparable, the king of Yue loved it, but the following year, the sword of Wu Yue, Gou Jian was defeated, this sword also fell into the hands of the king of Wu, after Gou Jian lying down to taste the gall, and finally a snow before the shame, so the sword meaning is ominous, renamed the god of chaos, another famous teacher, and then cast eight swords. Therefore, although the chaotic god is a famous weapon of the king of Yue, it is not included in the eight swords. ”
"Wow, Mr. Zhang San is really knowledgeable!" Gongsun Linglong held a beauty mask half-concealed, and between her words, her face was full of admiration.
The words were in his ears, such as Hong Zhong Da Lu, meaning something, and Fusu couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect this sword to have such a origin, Fusu was taught." ”
But when he heard the chaos, he said angrily: "Are you done with the sword, can you do it?"
"No, you can't. Zhang Liang responded with a smile, and when he spoke again, he said an astonishing sentence: "I just asked Gongzi, I want to ask you brothers who are in charge of the Eight Swords of King Yue, referring to the six of you!" (To be continued.) )
