It's the middle of the night, and there are fewer and fewer pedestrians on the streets. Although the lights on the street are one after another, it may be fierce tonight, and the people in Bianliang City avoid traveling, so it is not as lively and prosperous as before......

Zhao Funei ......

In a hall in the west of Zhao's mansion, Zhao Zichuan and his father Zhao Tianyuan were standing in front of the spirit case in front of the hall. There are vermilion pillars on each side of the hall, and three incense sticks are burned in the stove in front of the desk, and wisps of green smoke drift along with the incense to the roof with skylights. There are inscriptions such as "Zhao's spiritual position" written on the front of the case, and it seems that this is the spiritual position of the ancestors of the Zhao family. Most distinctly, there are two swords on each side of the front of the case. The sword on the left is golden with a golden character engraved on the hilt, while the sword on the right is turquoise with a green character engraved with a green light. In this way, the two golden and green swords stand on both sides of the spirit case, and at a glance, you can see that they are the ancestral treasures of the Zhao family - the "Qiankun Two Swords" known as the "Killing Yidi Divine Sword".

Zhao Zichuan looked at the spirit case in front of him with solemn eyes, and then leaned over and knelt in front of the spirit case. Zhao Tianyuan, who was on the side, saw his son standing solemnly in front of his ancestors, so he said to him: "Zichuan, have you really thought about it, do you want to inherit the will of your ancestors and pick up this ancestral treasure that has not been touched for nearly a hundred years - 'Qiankun Two Swords'?"

Zhao Zichuan had a serious face and firm eyes, looked straight at the two swords beside the case, and said righteously: "I have thought about it! Although Master Xuankong once said that my heart knot is not resolved, the determination of 'swearing to drive the Mongols out of the Central Plains' will never change. Dad, the eldest brother and the second brother have not been determined to inherit the will of their ancestors and pick up the sword, as the third son of the Zhao family, I must shoulder this burden, and my heart will be parasitic to the common people and benefit the people of the world. Therefore, today's children are here to swear to pick up the two swords of Qiankun and vow to be a benevolent person with the world in mind!"

Seeing Zhao Zichuan's words and deeds so firmly, Zhao Tianyuan, as a father, didn't say anything anymore. Inheriting the great cause of the ancestors, this is the wish of the Zhao family for generations, but no one can provoke the beam. Today, seeing that Zhao Zichuan made up his mind to inherit the wishes of his ancestors, Zhao Tianyuan still felt that Zhao Zichuan did have such a belief-which made him proud.

Zhao Zichuan was still kneeling in front of the spirit case, Zhao Tianyuan waited for a while, and then said solemnly: "The hour has come, Zhao Zichuan, are you really ready to inherit the will of your ancestors?"

Zhao Zichuan replied firmly: "I have decided and are ready!"

Zhao Tianyuan continued: "Then you first kowtow a few times in front of your ancestors to show your filial piety, and then go and pull out the 'Qiankun Two Swords' in front of the case!"

"Haode, father!" Zhao Zichuan replied with the same firm words.

So, Zhao Zichuan faced the spirit case of his ancestors, first knelt on the ground and solemnly kowtowed a few times. Zhao Tianyuan saw it and said to Zhao Zichuan: "Okay, Zichuan, you can go and pick up the ancestral treasure 'Qiankun Two Swords'!"

"Yes, father!" Zhao Zichuan slowly stood up, and then walked to the ancestral spirit case, and then said to the spirit case in front of him, "Zhao family ancestor, today I, Zhao Zichuan, will pull out the ancestral treasure 'Qiankun Two Swords'." Those who take this sword will keep in mind the mission of 'saving the people of the world and avenging the revenge of the Great Song Dynasty of Mengyuan and destroying me'. Today was the day when Xiangyang City was broken, and it was also the eve of the death of the Great Song Dynasty. Draw your sword today, and he will go to the field tomorrow. If you succeed and retire, you can settle a hundred years of grievances; if you die in battle, the soul of my Zhao family will still exist, and the world will never forget it!" After speaking, Zhao Zichuan returned to the same place, knelt down and solemnly kowtowed a few times.

Zhao Tianyuan saw Zhao Zichuan's words and ancestral teachings, and he had the world in mind, and nodded with satisfaction to Zhao Zichuan. Zhao Zichuan finished kowtowing and slowly stood up again. Subsequently, Zhao Zichuan walked to the spiritual position again, and said to the ancestral spiritual position: "Ancestor of the Zhao family, the younger generation Zhao Zichuan will draw his sword!" After speaking, the left and right hands slowly lifted the two swords of "Qiankun".

The "Qiankun Two Swords" was raised, and the candlelight on the table reflected the sword body, and the golden and turquoise sword light filled the entire hall, which was both mysterious and solemn.

"This is the ancestral treasure 'Qiankun Two Swords'!" Zhao Zichuan looked at the two swords in his hand and said to himself.

Zhao Tianyuan followed: "More than a hundred years ago, the Mongolian Tartars always wanted to take away my Zhao family's 'Qiankun Two Swords', but they were unsuccessful. A hundred years have passed, and now the Zhao family lives in the small land of Bianliang City, the Mongolian Tatars. Now that you have this sword, you must remember the legacy of your ancestors to the end!"

"The child understands!" replied Zhao Zichuan firmly.

Just when Zhao Zichuan was facing the second sword of Qiankun, suddenly a person walked outside the hall door. "Father, third brother, are you still here?" As soon as these words came out, it was known that this person was Zhao Zibo, the second young man of the Zhao family.

"Zibo, you're here too......" Zhao Tianyuan spoke first, "Zichuan has already sworn in front of his ancestors just now and pulled out the ancestral treasure 'Qiankun Two Swords'!"

"Third brother, you are really ......" Zibo listened to his father's words, both surprised and excited.

At this time, Zhao Zichuan slowly turned around with the Qiankun Second Sword and faced Zhao Zibo who was standing at the door. Zhao Zichuan spoke: "Second brother, you are here......"

Looking at the "Golden Dry Sword" and "Emerald Kun Sword" in Zhao Zichuan's hand, Zhao Zibo said excitedly: "Second brother, you are finally ...... It's finally decided!"

Zhao Zichuan just said very calmly: "Well, I will inherit the last wish of my ancestors and vow to go to the battlefield to drive the Mongolian Tatars out of the Central Plains." Pulling out the two swords of Qiankun today is the first step, and in the future, these two swords of Qiankun will surely gallop with me and kill Yidi!"

"Third brother, have ambition, okay, the whole family will definitely be proud of you!" Zhao Zibo first said excitedly, and then sighed, "Hey, it's a pity that as the second brother, I can't gallop on the battlefield like the eldest brother, and the third brother will ...... in the future Maybe you're the only one who can help the eldest brother complete the family business together. ”

Zhao Zichuan listened, and said righteously: "Don't worry, second brother, I will keep in mind the oath I made today, third brother!"

Zhao Zibo finished talking about Zhao Zichuan's ambitions, and then thought of something, so he changed the topic and said: "By the way, third brother, someone is looking for you at the door." ”

"Who is it?" Zhao Zichuan withdrew the Qiankun Second Sword from the scabbard on his waist, thinking that someone would come to him at such a late hour, so he asked again.

Zhao Zibo smiled and said, "You will know when you go, this person ...... You'll be glad to see it. ”

was told by Zhao Zibo, and Zhao Zichuan was even more curious. So after saying goodbye to his father and second brother, Zhao Zichuan rushed to the gate of the Lu Mansion......

When I came to the door of Zhao's mansion and opened the door, although it was dark outside, I could still feel that there were three people standing outside. The man in the front and center was dressed in plain white clothes and carried a folding fan, but his face could not be seen clearly because it was dark. And the two people in the back, Zhao Zichuan has no way of knowing.

When Zhao Zichuan saw it, he felt that the figure at the front was very familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was. Zhao Zichuan asked softly, "I don't know who Your Excellency is, why did you come to my Lu Mansion so late?"

The man in white smiled lightly: "Why, I haven't seen you for so long, don't you know me?"

As soon as he heard the voice, Zhao Zichuan suddenly realized. Zhao Zichuan exclaimed: "You are ...... Brother Huang Ji, Huang Ji!"

It turned out that standing in front of Zhao Zichuan was Huang Ji, the "Bianliang Doctor" who Zhao Zichuan and others had not seen for many days. Huang Ji approached the lantern light in front of the Lu Mansion, and his face gradually became clearer. Huang Ji said with a smile: "It's been a long time, you still remember me." ”

Zhao Zichuan saw Huang Ji and shouted happily: "Brother Huang, it's really you! I haven't seen you for so long, I can't recognize you at first sight, no wonder the figure is so familiar......

Huang Ji then smiled and said, "How about it, old friends are welcome?"

"Welcome, how can you not be welcome?" Zhao Zichuan continued, "It's not just me, Jingmei, Lu Zhao, and Lu Meng miss you very much!"

Huang Ji paused for a moment, and then said: "I have already heard about Jingmei, and it is said that the descendants of the Tang family have also appeared......"

"Yes, this matter is a long story, let's talk about it later......" Zhao Zichuan said, "By the way, Brother Huang, why did you come to my Zhao Mansion so late today?"

Huang Ji's expression gradually became serious, and then he said: "I heard that the people of the Nangong family have issued a war letter to the descendants of the Tang family again, and they will compete again in the Lu Mansion tomorrow, and there will be more martial arts people to come to observe." ”

Zhao Zichuan listened and asked suspiciously, "Brother Huang, how do you know so many things?"

Huang Ji replied: "Xue Feichen Xue's predecessor is my uncle-in-law, and he told me everything about the matter yesterday, but ...... Uncle Yi's whereabouts have been targeted by many martial arts people who have come to the kendo conference, and my place of residence has been discovered. ”

"So what?" Zhao Zichuan asked again.

Huang Ji continued to reply: "How can I say that I am also a little famous 'Bianliang Doctor' in the rivers and lakes, I don't want to be targeted like my uncle...... Tomorrow's competition, I also have to go to observe, in order not to be targeted by other martial arts people, so I have to ...... first I've borrowed your house, I wonder if it's okay?"

"Good brother, there's no problem with this little favor......," Zhao Zichuan said, "Brother Huang's martial arts and knowledge are very extensive, maybe you can help tomorrow...... By the way, Brother Huang, are the two behind you your friends?"

At this time, Zhao Zichuan set his eyes on the two people behind Huang Ji. Behind Huang Ji is a man and a woman, the man is dressed in brown cloth, because it is dark and he can't see every bit of his face, but the most striking thing is the slender knife mark on his face under the dark night, and the woman's blue clothes, although the night is thick, but it can't hide the face and graceful posture of Allure.

Huang Ji turned his head for a moment, forgot about the two of them, and then said with a smile: "Oh, they are my new friends, Xiao Tian and Su Jia. ”

It turned out that these two were Xiao Tian and Su Jia, who became friends with Huang Ji in Jixing District that day.

Zhao Zichuan saw that the two of them were extraordinary, so he said: "These two friends are friends of Brother Huang, so they must be good in the world......

Huang Ji said with a smile: "Otherwise, Brother Xiao Tian is a disciple of Xiaojia Villa, and this Miss Su is a disciple of the Wind Chasing Sect." ”

"Both of them are from famous families, and they are really good!" Zhao Zichuan said excitedly, "I can't imagine that Brother Huang can make such good friends, Zhao is really envious......"

"Where is it......" Su Jia also spoke on the side, "It's also our honor to be able to meet the children of the Zhao family!"

"These two friends of mine said they were going to see tomorrow's tournament too, so I called both of them as well. Huang Ji continued, "Brother Zichuan, don't underestimate them, especially this Miss Su, her skills are very powerful!"

"Really?" Zhao Zichuan said with a happy face, "Then I will definitely see it another day." ”

Su Jia has been standing behind Huang Ji and smiled lightly: "Don't praise the little girl, the little girl only knows a little about martial arts......" Su Jia remained as modest as ever in front of the living.

Huang Ji turned to Zhao Zichuan again and asked, "I don't know if it's convenient, open two more rooms for my two friends?"

Zhao Zichuan replied boldly: "No problem, Brother Huang's friend is my friend Zhao Zichuan!"

"Then thank you Zhao Gongzi......" Su Jia replied softly.

Subsequently, Zhao Zichuan led the three of them into the door. Walking in the corridor, Huang Ji said to Xiao Tian and Su Jia behind him: "You two must follow me tomorrow, tomorrow all martial arts people will come, don't be too public." ”

Su Jia said: "This Brother Huang, don't worry, in front of outsiders, Ah Tian and I are very measured......

"That's good......" Huang Ji turned his head again and followed Zhao Zichuan over.

Zhao Zichuan thought for a while, and then said: "By the way, Brother Huang, your martial arts and knowledge are not bad, if you go to Lu Mansion tomorrow, maybe you can help Sister Jing and them." ”

Huang Ji smiled and said: "Of course, I couldn't help Lu Jing and Nangong Zheng in the battle that day, this time I will try my best to help you......"

Zhao Zichuan also smiled: "Brother Huang doesn't have to care too much, Brother Tang's martial arts are definitely not under anyone in the Nangong family." ”

Huang Ji thought about it, and his face suddenly became serious and said, "I'm worried that Nangong Zheng will have some other conspiracy......"

Zhao Zichuan listened, and said calmly: "That's right, Nangong Zhengxin is not right, who knows what tricks he will play...... Anyway, as long as Brother Huang you go over first, I think Sister Jing and they will be very happy. ”

"That's right, after all, I haven't seen them for a long time......" Huang Ji also shook his head and said, "It's been so many days, and I miss their ...... too"

Zhao Zichuan and Huang Ji said eloquently in the front, and Xiao Tian and Su Jia were also talking in the back......

"Jia'er, are you really going to Lu Mansion tomorrow?" Xiao Tianxian asked, "There are so many martial arts people present tomorrow, I'm afraid of ......"

Su Jia looked straight ahead and said: "The two of us are not familiar with each other here, and if we want to gain a foothold in Bianliang, we must have a very good connection." Brother Huang Ji has so many friends, it will be helpful for us to get to know them more. ”

"But Jia'er, do you want to gain a foothold here?" Xiao Tian asked again.

Su Jia seemed to think of something, and then said solemnly: "This is the territory of the Mongols, and I know that Chen Shijin's whereabouts are in Bianliang City...... Chen Shijin became a lackey of the Mongols, and he must also have a certain amount of power, and if he wants to know his whereabouts, he must go to a place like Xiangfu. And if you want to get close to the Prime Minister's Mansion, you may only be able to have a very good connection......"

Xiao Tian knew that Su Jia was bent on seeking revenge on Chen Shijin, and he couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart. But when he heard that Su Jia was going to go to such a dangerous place as Xiangfu alone, he said worriedly: "Jia'er, you ...... No, not to mention that there are many masters in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and there are heavy guards, Jia'er, you go alone, it's too dangerous......"

"So we must have more connections and find out the situation of Bianliang......" Su Jia saw that Xiao Tian was very worried about herself, so she said again, "Don't worry, Ah Tian, I will have a sense of proportion......"

Although Su Jia said this verbally, Xiao Tian knew Su Jia's thoughts, and he knew that Su Jia wanted to fulfill his wish, but he didn't want him to be implicated. Xiao Tian's eyes suddenly lowered slightly, to be honest, since Xiao Tian and Su Jia arrived in Bianliang City from Plum Blossom Villa, Su Jia has become a little as indifferent as when he was in Liusha Town. Although Xiao Tian knew that Su Jia was thinking about himself in his heart, Su Jia's consistent cold face made Xiao Tian really unspeakable......

Su Jia suddenly slowed down, and Xiao Tian's thoughts were interrupted. Suddenly, Su Jia turned back to Xiao Tian and said, "By the way, Ah Tian, there is something I must emphasize again. One of the two of us can use the Soul Breaking Sword Technique, and the other can use the Divine Dragon Nine Transformation Sword Technique, if it is not a last resort, we must not perform real martial arts in front of ten thousand people...... Even if it is, it can only be performed by one person at most. There are a lot of idlers in the rivers and lakes, and if both of us are exposed, they will definitely talk about the 'Jianghu Bo' again...... In short, Ah Tian, tomorrow and in Bianliang City, we have to be conservative, understand?"

"Well, don't worry, Jia'er, I'll take care of my ......" Xiao Tian nodded and said.

After Xiao Tian finished answering, suddenly, Su Jia suddenly turned around and turned her back to Xiao Tian...... The night was very quiet, the cool breeze outside the corridor, a light breeze blew, and Su Jia's hair and temples were fluttered. "I'm sorry, Ah Tian......" Su Jia suddenly whispered.

Although Su Jia's voice was very small, Xiao Tian really heard it. Hearing this intriguing sentence in the eyes of ordinary people, Xiao Tian seemed to be able to read Su Jia's thoughts, but his personality and psychology became hazy. "Jia'er......" Xiao Tian muttered in confusion for some reason......

The two didn't say anything more, followed Zhao Zichuan and Huang Ji, and slowly walked towards the depths of the corridor, and the figures of the four gradually disappeared into the thick night......

The night is getting thicker and thicker, and the night market in Bianliang City is no longer as bustling and lively as it used to be. But in the middle of this vast city, there is still a house in the center that is lit up. The Thousand Autumn Pagoda stands in the center, and the surrounding area is lit with candles. Needless to say, this is the graceful and luxurious Nangong Compound.

In the hall room in the north area of the Nangong compound......

"Damn, if you don't defeat that guy named Tang Zhan, I swear not to be a man!" In the hall, Nangong Zhengzheng, who was beaten by Tang Zhan, was furious, and knocked over a jade teacup on the table.

"Okay, fourth brother, don't make any more trouble, you've been tossing for a day today......" By Nangong Zheng's side, his third brother Nangong Zhun sighed slowly while drinking tea.

"Then what else can I do, will I be humiliated tomorrow by that kid who claims to be the descendant of the Tang family?" Nangong Zheng continued to say angrily.

"It's you who can't hold your breath and gives him a war letter...... Nangong Zhun turned his head and said calmly.

Nangong Zheng calmed down a little, and said slowly: "No, how can my dignified Nangong family be humiliated by such a nameless descendant who has been wiped out......?"

"If you want, maybe I can help you, maybe you can really win......" Nangong Zhun covered the teacup in his hand and said softly.

Hearing this, Nangong Zheng immediately perked up. "What's the way?" Nangong Zheng asked anxiously, "As long as you can defeat that stinky boy and make him lose face in front of all the martial arts people, anything!"

Seeing Nangong Zheng's anxious appearance, Nangong Zhun stood up and said, "The gambling game is set by you, and you can influence the rules of the game...... I got a kind of poisonous powder from my master, and it is said that this poisonous powder was developed by Lu Huanlu, one of the four saints of martial arts today. I will put this poisonous powder into the fourth fan skeleton of your folding fan, and tomorrow you will decide a two-on-two duel, and each side will choose a helper. On your side, I can help you. You go around with that kid surnamed Tang for a few rounds first, and I'll deal with the other one. When I come over, you try to entangle with him, I can cover you, and you can take advantage of the fact that the kid surnamed Tang is not paying attention, and scatter the poisonous powder in the fan skeleton. My master said that that kind of poisonous powder is light and tasteless, even if it is a powerful martial arts master, it will be completely unknown two feet away. In this way, you can defeat that kid surnamed Tang without letting other martial arts people find out that you have done something. ”

After listening to this, Nangong Zheng felt that Nangong Zhun's attention was really good, and he could defeat Tang Zhan in front of all martial arts people. So he said slowly: "It's really worthy of the third brother, this idea is really ......" After speaking, Nangong Zheng showed a hideous smile on his face.

"If you win, fourth brother, you want Xiexie me to ......" Nangong Zhun also said with an evil smile, "I got that poisonous powder with great difficulty, and it was originally to deal with a certain girl's ......"

"Which girl?" Nangong Zheng asked again.

Nangong said treacherously: "I met Huang Ji in Zuixianglou a few days ago, and there was an extra girl next to him that I had never seen before...... If that Huang Ji is by his side, I can use this poison powder against him...... That girl is the most iconic I've ever seen, I've got to get my hands on ......."

Nangong Zheng smiled and said to Nangong Zhun: "Okay, as long as the third brother can help me defeat that Tang Zhan, I will also help the third brother you...... I am very familiar with the connections in Bianliang City, as long as that girl enters this Bianliang City, she will not be able to escape my eyeliner......"

After the seemingly deal was settled, Nangong Zhun and Nangong Zheng smiled at each other......
