Hidden Blade Chapter 66: The ghost is domineering, the lackeys run rampant
The imperial capital of Daxia is in Henghuangcheng.
In an inn called Lixianzhai, the old man lying on the bed looked at the young man beside him.
His face is a little pale, but with a slight smile.
"This is the story behind the shadow play." He said, "How do you think?"
On hearing this, Xu Han blinked his eyes as if waking up from a dream, and looked at the old man.
Mr. Wei woke up this morning. Although he still couldn't afford to sleep, after Ning Zhumang watched it for him, there was nothing wrong with his words, and he could recover after some time of recuperation. Fortunately, they have already arrived at Henghuangcheng, so there is no need to worry about the bumps on the journey. As for the money for the house and the medicinal supplements needed for recuperation, the rich man Yan Zhan is here, and it is far from worrying.
On the contrary, Mr. Wei seemed to be quite interested, pulling Xu Han and starting to tell the second half of the story of the Taoist and the white fox.
Xu Han listened carefully, and guessed from the bottom of his heart, this story is the story of the old man himself.
He was stunned for a while before he said: "On the Great Yuan Mountain, what did the Taoist say to the great monarch?"
"Do you want to know?" The old man blinked likewise.
"Yeah." Xu Han nodded without hesitation.
"This is a longer story. For such a troublesome thing, do you have to bow to me if you want me to do it?" the old man asked, with a teasing smile on his face.
Xu Han was taken aback for a moment, and he was a little unclear about the request made by the old man.
"Xiaohan! Xiaohan!" While hesitating, Chu Chouli's loud voice sounded from outside the house, and the middle-aged man rushed into the door with a carefree gesture.
"What's the matter?" Xu Han, who has long been accustomed to Chu Qiu's nature, was not surprised at this, he stood up and asked.
"The registration for the Longmen Club has started, let's go quickly." The middle-aged man seemed to realize that he was a little gaffe in yelling, so he shrank his neck and said cautiously.
"Huh?" Xu Han was also moved when he heard this.
The so-called Longmen Meeting was also the news that Chu Qiuli and others inquired after they came to Henghuangcheng.
It is important to know that because of the rich conditions, the swordsman’s conference in this world has attracted the attention of countless people in Daxia, and there are countless heroes who want to participate in this competition. You can get a glimpse of the number of people in the arena with their waists and swords.
For such an important conference, it is naturally impossible to wait until the beginning of everyone rushing in and making a mess.
Therefore, there is this Longmen Club.
This Longmen Meeting started in Henghuangcheng a month ago. It was appointed by Longyin Temple to the prestigious rivers and lakes in Henghuangcheng, or some princes and princes, and they selected suitable candidates to enter the executive office. Sword Man Competition. This Longmen Club can be regarded as a selection for the survival of the fittest before the Sword Holder Competition. There have been five times before today. Although the Sword Holder Competition is still a few days away, and the Longmen Club will not end this time, but Xu Han still feels that he can get it done sooner, so he feels at ease.
"Go, you can listen to the story anytime, the old man can't die now." Mr. Wei who seemed to see Xu Han's mind, said with a smile.
Xu Han didn't hesitate anymore when he heard this. He slightly arched his hand towards Mr. Wei and said: "Then Mr. Wei is good for life and cultivation, I will go and finish this matter now."
After saying this, Xu Han turned around and walked out of the room.
......
Walking side by side with Chu Qiuli on the streets of Henghuangcheng, Xu Han thought of the story told by Mr. Wei, and he was naturally unable to remain untouched by this.
There are too many secrets about this world in the story.
What Xu Han cares most about is his dialogue with the maharaja. His right arm is the maharaja’s thing. Why is it in the Great Yuan Mountain by Jianling Town, and why is it helping the Taoist people? With a few words from Cang Hai Liu, he handed his right arm to Xu Han.
In Xu Han's view, behind these, there seems to be a bigger secret.
Furthermore, Mr. Wei said that there was an immortal palace where immortals lived on Kunlun Mountain. Cang Hailiu said that he had been there. There had been dust there. The master had also been there. In the end, he seemed to have died there, even The monitor who seemed to be above this world also wanted Xu Han to go there.
What on earth is there, and what can I have to do with myself? These questions all came to the mind of the young man at this moment.
"Xiaohan, Xiaohan!" It wasn't until the big man's slightly dissatisfied voice knocked his eardrums that his eardrums buzzed, and the boy came back to his senses.
"Huh?" He raised his head and looked at the big man beside him blankly.
"Should I speak to you?" Chu Qiuli asked, but the expression on Xu Han's face had already clearly told him that Xu Han did not listen. Say it again.
"This dragon gate meeting was held by a prince in Henghuangcheng. This prince is still the clan of the current emperor of Great Xia. He is called Li Moding. He has an excellent reputation in Henghuangcheng and he is also a man. Quite fair, it’s probably the case that can be selected by Longyin Temple to hold the Longmen Fair."
"But..." At this point, Chu Qiuli stopped suddenly, and looked at Xu Han with a grimace, as if it was a bit of a sell-off.
But how could Xu Han eat him? Then he gave him a fierce look.
The middle-aged man suddenly became weak, and said reluctantly: "But no matter whether these selected princes or famous places, they all have their own calculations. Think about it, so many people participate in this exercise. Swordsman competition, but this dragon gate will be brushed down a large area, and there are inevitably some missing fish, these big people can find a way to solicit some treasures from the sea for their own use. Of course, this is not the most critical, the most important thing. The key point is that there are many big sect elders or elite disciples who participated in the Sword Holders Competition. Although the Longmen Club is fair, the host has some autonomous rights. In this way, they will sell those big sects with some affection at the critical moment. The benefits will be endless in the future."
Hearing Xu Han here probably also smelled it, he nodded secretly.
Although this Daxia has strong soldiers and strong horses, it is different from the two kingdoms of Zhou and Chen. Although the Zhou Chenzongmen are numerous, but the imperial power has obviously suppressed the rivers and lakes, but Daxia is different. This case has three gates and twelve towns. So a fairy sitting in town, if it hadn’t been for Longyin Temple to have good relations with the royal family, I’m afraid these sect sects would have turned this great summer upside down, but that’s the case. The ordinary royal family would have to bow their heads and nod when they saw these large sects. Don't dare to dominate.
"By the way, where's Uncle Ning and the others?" Xu Han suddenly asked. He hadn't seen Ning Zhumang and others this day, and he couldn't help but feel a little strange.
"They've been waiting there for a long time, but you don't know it, now that Prince Li's door is full of people who sign up for Rangers, let's hurry up." Chu Qiuli responded.
"Yeah." Xu Han stopped talking at the moment, and hurried with Chu Qiuli.
......
The two soon arrived at the Li Family Prince's Mansion located in the north of Henghuangcheng, and the scene here is indeed as Chu Qiuli said. The city is full of people with various weapons. Xu Han stood on tiptoe and raised his eyes to look around, but saw that at the door, a guard with a dry waist and a sword was lined up. An old man over half a hundred years old was sitting on a magistrate’s chair, looking at it. A man who signed up seemed to be weighing whether he seemed to be eligible to participate in the Longmen Club.
"Young Master Xu! Here!" At this moment, there was a soft cry not far away. Xu Han looked sideways, but Ning Zhumang and others, who had already been queued to the midstream position, made this cry. It's that Zhen Yue.
Xu Han strolled to the front, Zhen Yue retreated very sensibly and gave up her position to Xu Han.
This swordsman meeting is fiercely competitive. Looking at Tongyou Realm's Zhen Yue, it is natural that there is no need to participate. Xu Han dare not say that he is confident. Among the group is Xu Han, Ning Zhumang, and Yan Zhan has the capital to give it a try.
"How is Mr. Wei?" Seeing Xu Han's arrival, Ning Zhumang, who was ahead of him, turned around and asked.
"It should be fine." Xu Han responded.
"Mr. Fortune, if he really has something good or bad, Yan must not know how to face you." Yan Zhan on the side also took over the conversation at this time. Obviously, this man is involved in matters involving Xu Han. Still brooding.
A group of people were talking about this, and there was a commotion behind the sudden crowd, and it seemed that a large group of people was about to jump over the people in the line and go straight to the front.
This approach naturally aroused dissatisfaction among the people in the line. Although Xu Han also intervened in it, after all, he changed positions with Zhen Yue. No one can fault it, but the large group of people who appeared at this moment It seemed that he wanted to forcefully penetrate the crowd, and the sentiment was exciting for a while.
However, this anger was extinguished after a few breaths.
"Do you dare not give the face of Chixiaomen? Are you tired of your life?" A voice of negative test sounded at that time, and the crowd suddenly died down, and they retreated unwillingly~IndoMTL.com~ and Xu Han At this time, the others also saw clearly what the group of people looked like.
Awesomely, it was a large group of Crimson Sect disciples led by Na Lu Houde, Hu Man'er and others.
Youdao is a journey to the enemy, Xu Han and others saw them, and they naturally saw Xu Han at this time.
There is another saying that the enemy was extremely jealous when they met. Xu Han and others looked ugly at once, while Lu Houde and others showed sorrow after a moment.
Leader Lu Houde swaggered to Xu Han and the others. He looked Xu Han up and down, and said with a sneer: "Unexpectedly, you still have the guts to come here."
Xu Han did not change his face, and said indifferently: "The ghost is still domineering under the light of the sky, and the lackey can also run wild in the universe. Xu is upright, how can he not dare?"
"Hmph, if you have the ability, you will stay in this horizontal imperial city forever, otherwise..." Lu Houde, who was flushed by Xu Han's swallow, pressed his anger in his heart, gritted his teeth and said.
Xu Han squinted his eyes and smiled in reply. "Your Excellency, please always bring your head teacher to your side."
