Chapter 152: Strange Stone From the Sky (Second Update, Please Vote for Recommendation)

Gulp, gulp, Meng Qi drank the noodle soup without hesitation, gave it to old man Xie along with the silver coins, then turned around and said, "Where is Zengxianmen? Please lead the way."

They all went to join in the fun and watch the high-level competition. Although the young man wearing the hero scarf was a little reluctant to let Meng Qi follow him, he still restrained his impulse to avoid losing a good impression in front of his female companion: "It's in Zengxian Mountain outside the city."

The two were quite kind. Seeing that Meng Qi had no horse and did not get on the horse, he led two horses and walked slowly.

"Brother, from your accent, it seems that you are not from our Sanshansishui?" After thinking about the Tiandi Renbang, the girl finally realized, "By the way, we are disciples of Qishui's 'Duanliu Sword Sect'. My name is Wu Qinxin, and he is my senior brother, 'Shuiji Changkong' Shangguan Han."

She had just entered the martial arts world and had not had time to make a name for herself.

Shangguan Han was proud in his heart, but he cared about his face and didn't want to be called arrogant and rude. He still bowed and said: "My friend gave me a nickname, which made me laugh. I wonder what your name is and where it comes from?"

It's much better than my nickname... Meng Qi silently felt sad: "I am Meng Qi, from the capital of Zhongzhou. I left home when I was young and lived in Xiliang. I am currently traveling around the world. People gave me the nickname "Xiaoyao Jian."

His accent was affected by the residual instinct of his body, which was biased towards the capital area, so he called himself a Zhongzhou person, but he had never been to the capital and didn't know the situation there at all. He was afraid that he would be embarrassed if asked, so he made up an excuse that he left home when he was young and lived in Xiliang - Xiliang was the capital of Xizhou, and Meng Qi passed by on his way to the Western Regions and stayed there for a few days, so he got to know it well.

As for Xiaoyao Jian, it was naturally a nickname Meng Qi gave himself to show his yearning in his heart and protest against "Thunder Blade Crazy Monk" and "Ragged King Kong".

"Xiaoyao Sword, puff..." Shangguan Han laughed and said nothing more, obviously thinking that this was Meng Qi's act of flattering himself.

As for the surname Meng, he did not think much about it. After all, there are countless people with the surname Meng in the world, and he is not a big man with a height of eight feet and a waist of eight feet. Just like his surname Shangguan, no one would think that he is a descendant of the Shangguan family of Juyuan, a noble family in the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

Wu Qinxin had never heard of the name "Xiaoyao Sword", so she naturally had the same idea as her senior brother, but the sedan chair was carried by people, and she smiled and said: "Brother, your nickname is elegant and elegant. By the way, I heard that among the many Western Region merchants in Xiliang, there are descendants of gods and demons with strange eye and hair colors and eyes between their eyebrows?"

After she mentioned it, she turned to ask about Xiliang. She was very curious about this aspect. After all, since she was born, she has never left the "Three Mountains and Four Waters". Even when visiting relatives and walking in the rivers and lakes recently, her activities are limited to the vicinity of Qishui City.

"Western Liang is rare, but I have been to Yumen Pass and Liushaji, and the descendants of gods and demons do have all kinds of strange shapes..." Meng Qi talked freely. Compared with this pair of senior brothers and sisters, he has traveled thousands of miles and has seen a lot.

Whether or not they think Meng Qi is a wandering man, Shangguan Han and Wu Qinxin, whose horizons are trapped in the mountains and rivers, are quite interested in the things in the distant Western Regions. They listen with relish. In addition, Meng Qi has personal experience and good eloquence. They seem to see a desolate picture of yellow sand all over the sky, horse bandits everywhere, and strange races.

"One day, if my nine orifices are fully opened, I will go to the Western Regions to hunt horse bandits." Shangguan Han's blood boiled, but he was frightened by the horse bandit forces described by Meng Qi. He felt that he had to open all nine orifices to act in the vast sea.

As long as the Central Plains sects have a good inheritance and there are other masters in the sect, the disciples are basically allowed to walk the rivers and lakes after they have opened their minds. The big sects are more challenging and have stricter rules. For example, in Shaolin, if one of the 72 unique skills has not been mastered, even if the six orifices are mastered, it may not be possible to pass the Tongren Lane. For example, in Xijian Pavilion, Jiang Zhiwei opened the six orifices and entered the sword way before leaving the mountain.

Therefore, Shangguan Han and Wu Qinxin also opened their eyes.

After showing off his knowledge, Meng Qi was very satisfied with the envious looks of Shangguan Han and Wu Qinxin, but he did not dare to say more, so as not to reveal his identity, and asked: "I am new to the 'Three Mountains and Four Waters', and I don't know much about Zengxian Sect and Qinshan Sword Sect. Please introduce them to me, so as not to embarrass me at the banquet."

"Although the terrain of our Three Mountains and Four Waters is dangerous and the fields are scarce, the deep mountains grow good medicines and minerals. Many large sects are happy to win us over. Zengxian Sect is backed by Zhenyi Sect, and Qinshan Sword Sect is affiliated with the branch of Longnan Zhang Family. They are all first-class local sects..." It was Wu Qinxin's turn to show his own knowledge, and it was not a secret of the "Duanliu Sword Sect", so he talked nonstop and was very excited.

The Zhenyi Sect is quite famous. It was founded by a lay disciple of the Zhenwu Sect who had a great encounter. After several generations, it has flourished. With the support of the Zhenwu Sect, it is considered an ordinary large sect. The Longnan Zhang family is one of the top families in Dajin. The "Yuwai Yanyang Chapter" and "Da Ri Burning Heaven Palm" are both Dharmakaya-level magical skills. However, the Qinshan Sword Sect cannot join the Longnan Zhang family. After all, there is a huge gap in their own strength and status. They can only please the side branches of the Zhang family.

Meng Qi curled his lips. The Zhenyi Sect and the Longnan Zhang family's side branches sounded so low-level...

He was born in Shaolin, one of the top martial arts sects in the world, and most of the people around him were at this level, such as the Zhenwu sect of the three sects of Taoism, the Xijian Pavilion and the Huanhua Sword sect of the six sword-holding sects. For example, they were frightened by him. The boy from the Cui family was also born extraordinary. The Cui family in Pingjin and the Zhang family in Longnan were juxtaposed. After having the law, they were even more depressed. On the other hand, for example, his 'mortal enemy' Gu Xiaosang is a saint of the Luo Sect in the Nine Paths of Evil. Even if the crying old man's lineage is a little lower, it is still a powerful evil force in the Western Region. Therefore, he heard that the Zhenwu Sect is affiliated with the Zhenyi Sect. The vassal Zengxian Sect and the "little brother" Qinzhou Sword Sect, a branch of the Longnan Zhang family, inevitably feel this way.

However, he immediately laughed at himself, saying that he had been expelled from Shaolin and seemed to be worse than the sects he relied on.

He didn't mind this. The sky was vast, there was no one to control him, and he had no burden. How could he be so free? Besides, I don’t have a sect anymore, but my friends do!

"I wonder which major sect your sect is close to?" Meng Qi asked casually.

Shangguan Han said with a hint of arrogance: "The inferior sect and the 'Luoxia Divine Sword Sect' share the same spirit."

Afraid that Meng Qi didn't know, he added: "Luoxia Divine Sword Sect is one of the seven branches of Huanhua Sword Sect."

I just said that Luoxia sounds familiar... Meng Qi secretly said, feeling somewhat close to the Duanliu Sword Sect. After all, Senior Brother Qi is also one of the foreign affairs chiefs of the Huanhua Sword Sect, although he is a powerful Huntian Baojian. , rather than the swordsmanship of the Huanhua Sword Sect.

After a few words of praise, Meng Qi continued to ask about the Zengxian Sect and the Qinshan Sword Sect.

Wu Qinxin heard that he was sincere towards his sect and said without hesitation: "Six years ago, a strange stone fell from the sky on the edge of Qinshan Mountain. Hua Tiange, the master of the Zengxian Sect, and Ning Jidao, the master of the Qinshan Sword Sect, arrived at the same time. , and they are all masters with all nine apertures, and they couldn't argue, so they agreed to send out outstanding disciples from their respective sects to compete. Only three people can compete continuously, and the winner can keep the strange stone for three years. "

"Initially, the Qinshan Sword Sect won. They observed the strange rocks and gained a lot from it. However, due to the short time, the gains had not yet been transformed into strength, so they were faced with a new competition. Hua Tiange used the excuse that his son Hualun had joined. It’s a real thing, but it’s about the father Zida, he was considered half a member of the Zengxian Sect, so he was sent to fight. At that time, Hua Lun, at the level of two orifices, used exquisite swordsmanship to defeat three outstanding disciples of the four orifices of the Qinshan Sword Sect. Ning Jidao was so angry My hair turned gray overnight," Shangguan Han continued.

While chatting, the three of them had already left the small Qinshan City and headed towards Zengxian Mountain. There were many heroes along the road and it was very lively. It was obvious that most of the martial arts people from all over the mountains and rivers came to join in the fun.

Many of them greeted Shangguan Han as if they were familiar with him, but Shangguan Han kept a polite smile, neither cold nor hot.

Meng Qi was not surprised and asked what he was concerned about: "Can Hua Lun participate in the battle this time? You seem to be more optimistic about the Qinshan Sword Sect."

Compared to the Longnan Zhang family, Meng Qi felt closer to the Zhenyi sect, a side branch of the Zhenwu sect.

Wu Qinxin's eyes were bright, and he said slightly confusedly: "Because the Qinshan Sword Sect has Huang Yun. Three years ago, he had not opened his ear acupoints and was not sent to the field. But now he is a master with all six apertures open, and his sword skills are also excellent." After an unexpected encounter, he mastered the essence of Qinshan's swordsmanship and defeated three mountains and four mountains one-on-one. Several elders from Qiqiao Shui were given the nickname "Feiyun Sword" by people. It is said that they were also favored by the branch of the Zhang family in Longnan and believed that they would be on the list of people in the future. However, Hua Lun did not gain much from his travels. At present, he is only one. The four orifices are far behind in terms of realm alone, let alone swordsmanship.”

"No wonder." Meng Qi was a little eager to try after hearing this. He has always been a person who loves fun and exchanging ideas. If it weren't for the fact that one thing is worse than one thing at present, he really wants to weigh the "Feiyun Sword" that is expected to enter the list. "I don't know what strange rocks are out there that day." What’s so strange about it?”

Shangguan Han said with great yearning: "The elders of the Longnan Zhang family and the Zhenyi sect have personally inspected it. They all say that the stone contains the blood of an ancient god, which has evolved into incomplete and indistinguishable martial arts of gods and demons. If you observe it, different people will have different ideas." Different understandings, in the past six years, Qinshan Sword Sect and Zengxian Sect have acquired several sets of extremely powerful swordsmanship. If not, how could Huang Yun challenge him? "

"The martial arts of gods and demons...the Hezhen sect, a branch of the Longnan Zhang family, is not interested?" Meng Qi said a little doubtfully.

"There must be some temptation, but after all, it is incomplete and difficult to distinguish, and of no great use. And the Longnan Zhang family and the Zhenyi sect have to take care of their face. At most, they can send elders and disciples to observe, or secretly teach the disciples of the two sects in order to win the battle. , such as Huang Yun, it is rumored that an elder from the Zhang family's branch personally gave guidance. "Shangguan Han is somewhat jealous of Huang Yun.

Wu Qinxin glanced at his senior brother: "No matter how much advice you have from an expert, you have to be a talented person yourself. I heard that the branch of the Longnan Zhang family and the Zhenyi sect are actually not interested in observing. They mainly want to study this strange stone and figure it out." Coming from nowhere and flying out of Qingming to find the remains of the ancient god is a great benefit. "

Meng Qi nodded slightly and continued chatting with the two. After a while, he climbed the mountain peak and arrived at Zengxian Gate.

There were hundreds of tables of banquets set up in the hall inside the gate for the heroes to help themselves to, and it was very lively and crowded.

Shangguan Han was well-known in the mountains and rivers. As he walked, people kept coming to greet him. Wu Qinxin was the daughter of the leader of the Duanliu Sword Sect and was also indispensable for people to support him. Meng Qi was completely treated as a follower.

After finally finding a round table with a seat, before sitting down, several other martial arts people at the table greeted Shangguan Han and Wu Qinxin with smiles, and at the same time asked Meng Qi politely.

"He is 'Xiaoyao Sword' Meng Qi, from Xiliang." Shangguan Han introduced casually.

The martial artists said "oh" and chatted with Shangguan Han and Wu Qinxin after hearing about it for a long time.

Meng Qi didn't bother to pay attention to them. He ate heartily and enjoyed himself. As for what Wu Qinxin introduced to him, he only remembered the approximate strength of these martial artists. Some had four orifices, some had two orifices, and some had great Qi accumulation - this was an instinctive reaction after being born and died.

Not long after, Hua Tiange, the leader of Zengxian Sect, came out accompanied by his disciples. He was just fifty years old, but he looked like an old man in his sixties, and his hair was almost completely white.

"Hey, he looks so sad, isn't it..." Meng Qi took a look and his heart moved.

I have something to go out in the afternoon, and I will add more chapters at nine o'clock in the evening
