Chapter 116 Five Major Sword Sects
Of course, it is a good thing that the night can be passed smoothly.
I just occasionally think of Lao Wang's breathing rhythm, and I'm always a little surprised.
He probably has some internal power, but he doesn't seem to know how to use it.
This reminded Jiang Ran of his previous self.
But... how likely is it to be replicated in his situation?
Otherwise, Lao Wang is deliberately hiding his clumsiness.
If this is really the case, then there is really no need to expose it.
Suppose a master hides in an inn anonymously and acts as a waiter.
There must be some reason not to do so.
If exposed, he might become an enemy.
There is no reason for such extraneous matters.
The matter at the inn was temporarily forgotten by Jiang Ran.
But he found that his team seemed to be getting stronger.
Originally, he and Ye Jingshuang had Li Tianxin at best.
As a result, Zhang Zhihua chased after him and met Luo Qingyi on the way.
Finally, Mo Tingsheng was captured.
The team of two people instantly became six people.
There are men, women, and a prisoner...why did the ingredients suddenly become complicated?
Looking up, he saw Zhang Zhihua riding his horse close to Ye Jingshuang, talking to her in a low voice.
Luo Qingyi also sat on the horse, holding Mo Tingsheng in front of him, looking around as he hurried on.
Li Tianxin, on the other hand, didn't love anyone, he looked so cold and cold, even his horse seemed to have its nostrils turned upward.
But Jiang Ran soon discovered that Li Tianxin seemed to be quite peaceful to everyone else.
He was polite when talking to Ye Jingshuang occasionally, and he could treat even Zhang Zhihua calmly.
Only when facing yourself, do you pick up your nose and eyes.
Jiang Ran originally thought that Zhang Zhihua was the one who provoked him, but now it was inexplicable that he seemed to have provoked him?
But he and Ye Jingshuang slept peacefully in the room last night.
Where else can I offend him?
"Sure enough, he is seriously ill."
Jiang Ran gave what he thought was a fair assessment.
The muddy road after the rain was not easy to walk on, and the horses' hooves sometimes slipped and split.
As everyone moved, they naturally slowed down.
Jiang Ran's ears twitched slightly, shook his head slightly, and asked Ye Jingshuang:
"Shuang'er, what are the forces near Hongfeng Villa?"
Ye Jingshuang looked back thoughtfully and shook his head:
"Qian'er. Liushan Villa is considered one, and there are several small sects and small families.
"But they are not as good as Qianliu Villa, and they are probably just waving flags and shouting.
"Besides that, there is one of the five major sword sects... Yunshan Sword Sect!"
"Five major sword sects."
Jiang Ran smiled:
"I have always heard you talk about these five major sword sects, but now I know Yes, one is your Liuyun Sword Sect, then the Danyang Sword Sect, and now there is another Yunshan Sword Sect.
"But I don't know what the names of the other two are? "
"The remaining two, one is the Qingsong Sword Sect and the other is the Shuiyue Sword Sect.
"However, both the Qingsong Sword Sect and the Shuiyue Sword Sect are far away from here, and they will not be able to reach them
in this moment and a half." The Liuyun Sword Sect is hundreds of miles away in Liuyun Mountain. In a few days, they have arrived. Can't. "
Ye Jingshuang said this and sighed softly:
"Actually, my father wanted me to join the Yunshan Sword Sect back then.
"With this incense love, we can also help each other.
" However, the head of Guyun had other plans, so this matter could only be dropped. "
That's it. " "
Jiang Ran nodded: "In this case, they personally kept this jade like you out of the door.
" Brother Jiang was joking again. "
Ye Jingshuang rolled her eyes at Jiang Ran and said, "
What kind of jade am I?" "
"Don't underestimate yourself. "
Jiang Ran said: "I know your martial arts very well. Whether it is swordsmanship or internal strength, you have achieved success. At this age, being able to have such martial arts is enough to be proud of. "
Actually, these words are not intended to be flattering.
When she was with Ye Jingshuang earlier, Ye Jingshuang's martial arts seemed to be mediocre.
However, she was seriously injured at that time. It was
during the battle in the Valley of the Past that she really showed herself. Strength.
Can be on par with Tong Wanli.
This skill is definitely better than that of Li Tianxin and Luo Qingyi.
Ye Jingshuang glanced at Jiang Ran silently:
"Brother Jiang... you are so old-fashioned. He seems to be an old man.
"Aren't you about the same age as me?"
"This..."
Jiang Ran was speechless for a moment. He couldn't tell her that he was a loser and couldn't use common sense to judge, right?
Anyone who compares himself with himself is looking for discomfort.
Jiang Ran never felt that he was better than these young heroes in the world.
After all, if they put each other on the same starting line, he might not be any better than them.
It's just that it's hard to say this.
Ye Jingshuang did not dwell on this and continued:
"The Yunshan Sword Sect has a long heritage and a profound foundation.
"There are four peaks in the mountain, namely Guyun Peak, Hanhai Peak, Daqian Peak, and Baimu Peak.
"The four peaks are juxtaposed, each leading one, and they all have inheritance.
" Guyun Peak is the first peak. Every head of the Yunshan Sword Sect came from this peak. After his successor, he was called Guyunzi.
"And the swordsmanship of these four peaks has its own merits.
"Even the Five Sects Sword Club, they only choose one peak to go to..."
At this point, she paused, expecting the enemy to speak first:
"As for the Five Sects, they only choose one peak to go to..." The Sword Fair is held every five years.
"Initially, it seems that the disciples of the five sects met by chance in the Jianghu. No one of the swordsmen was convinced by the other, so they sat down to discuss swords.
"As a result, their swordsmanship has greatly improved.
"So we decided to have a small meeting every year to test each other's schools.
"As their status became higher and higher, what was originally a small meeting between a few people gradually evolved into a conference with disciples.
“The time has also changed from once a year to once every five years.
"Three years ago, I went to the conference with my mentor. It was indeed eye-opening and improved a lot." "
Did you meet Shi Miao at this sword conference?"
Jiang Ran was a little curious.
"That's not true."
Ye Jingshuang shook his head:
"In fact, the five major sword sects are also close to each other in private.
"The Danyang Sword Sect and I, the Liuyun Sword Sect, have always been on good terms.
"Shi Miao's master and my mentor are close friends.
"So, I have known Shi Miao since I was a child.
"The reason why we haven't seen each other for three years is because Shi Miao entered the sword realm.
"So she stayed in seclusion for three years... She only recently came out to sharpen her sword.
Jiang Ran heard another word he had never heard of before:
"Sword realm? "
"You are really ignorant! " "
Li Tianxin had been listening for a long time, and finally couldn't help but speak.
Naturally, this speech did not have a good tone.
Jiang Ran glanced at him, didn't bother to look more, and looked at Ye Jingshuang, waiting for her to say An explanation.
As a result, Li Tianxin snorted:
"The so-called sword realm is a realm unique to sword practitioners.
"It is said that once you enter this realm, your swordsmanship will improve a lot.
"But, as far as I know, if you want to step into this realm, you need to accumulate knowledge. If you are lucky enough to enter this level before the age of forty, He will definitely become a master of swordsmanship in the future.
"I'm afraid Shi Miao hasn't even been in her twenties yet. How did she reach this level?" "
This has something to do with the martial arts she has learned."
Ye Jingshuang said softly,
"But I can't reveal this."
"She Is this the reason for his temperament?"
Jiang Ran asked.
"Yes."
Ye Jingshuang nodded.
Jiang Ran understood.
Although he didn't spend much time with Shi Miao, Jiang Ran discovered that this girl had an innocent temperament and seemed cool, but in fact she was straightforward.
She didn't even seem to be afraid.
No matter what kind of opponent he faces, he will go on a rampage and never take detours.
It's like a sharp sword.
It is better to take what is straight than to seek what is wrong.
This is by no means an advantage. After all, being square inside and round outside is the way to be a human being.
This is a flaw, the price she paid for being able to enter the sword realm in less than twenty years.
"This state seems too dangerous. If you are not careful..."
Jiang Ran frowned slightly.
Ye Jingshuang also nodded:
"Actually, with her appearance, a 'sword bearer' should be arranged for her.
" She is like a sword, and her temperament is also like a sword.
"She doesn't know how to make detours on her own. Someone needs to remind her to help her make detours...
" It's like someone wielding a sword and wielding it.
"Just like what happened when Brother Jiang went to pursue Zuodaozhuang with her.
"According to her original temperament, the moment she found Zuodaozhuang, she would rush in and kill everyone.
"Either kill all your opponents, or be killed by others.
" But you were by your side and helped her make another choice, so she was not so sharp.
"So, although she is rampant, she is actually very obedient? " "
Not necessarily. " "
Ye Jingshuang smiled: "At least you have to be able to hold her with martial arts skills that are better than hers, and make her truly admire you, then you can be the sword holder. Otherwise, although the sword is good, it will hurt itself. "
Jiang Ran felt that this description sounded a bit awkward.
It felt like Shi Miao didn't look like a person, but really was a sword.
And it seemed a bit strange that the topic changed from the five major sword sects to Shi Miao.
This is But suddenly I heard Li Tianxin say:
"Speaking of which, if I remember correctly, there seems to be some discord between Liuyun Sword Sect and Yunshan Sword Sect?
" Master Li is indeed well-informed. " "
Ye Jingshuang nodded:
"Because both factions have the word 'cloud' in their names.
"So, there are conflicts between the two.
"But in general, this conflict is mostly concentrated in the Five Sects Sword Club.
"After all, with the name of the 'Five Swords', we can still take care of each other when we are traveling in the world."
Jiang Ran heard Li Tianxin say before that the world of the Jin Chan Dynasty had 'one sect, two societies, five swords and seven swords'. Send the Thirteen Gang'.
The five major sword sects are indeed the 'Five Swords' among them.
With this in mind, I was about to talk about the Yunshan Sword Sect again, wondering if they would come to Hongfeng Villa to join in the fun.
Then an extremely subtle, yet extremely dense tinkling tinkling sound was heard coming from afar.
Jiang Ran suddenly looked up and saw that the sound came from quite far away. At this time, he could only hear the sound, but could not see who was fighting.
But Ye Jingshuang, Li Tianxin and the others didn't even hear their voices.
He immediately said,
"There's someone fighting in front, let's move quickly."
Ye Jingshuang didn't doubt that he was there, and immediately put his legs under the horse's belly and rode forward.
Li Tianxin and Luo Qingyi also speeded up.
Only Zhang Zhihua looked puzzled:
"Why didn't I hear anything?"
However, seeing that everyone had gone away, he quickly followed up:
"Wait for me..."
Everyone ignored the small talk, and after speeding up, behind them Several people rushed out.
"No, they're going to run away!"
"Hurry, follow them, they're probably here for the Broken Gold Knife. This group of people are highly skilled in martial arts, and they're not ordinary people. Let's follow quietly, and maybe we'll have a chance to get a share of the pie."
There were seven or eight people in a row, some of whom knew each other, and some of whom did not.
They jumped out from both sides and sped up to catch up.
After Jiang Ran and the others walked forward for a while, Ye Jingshuang and the others heard the noise.
Going further, I saw two figures flying vertically and horizontally on the wild road in the mountains, waving their long swords, drawing thousands of colorful lines.
In addition, on both sides of the mountain road, there were two groups of people glaring at each other.
Ye Jingshuang just glanced at it and was stunned:
"He is my senior brother from the Liuyun Sword Sect!"
Jiang Ran was stunned for a moment, looked closely, and found that both groups were wearing white clothes.
However, one group of people had a cloud embroidered on their sleeves, while another group had a green mountain embroidered on their sleeves.
Liu Yun and Yun Shan...
just after saying this, they saw someone.
At this time, the two people fighting in mid-air had already landed on the ground.
They were fighting each other with swords and lights, and both had superb methods.
Jiang Ran could tell at a glance that the swordsmanship performed by one of them had the shadow of Liuyun's swordsmanship.
The swordsmanship performed by the man opposite was as steady as a mountain, and each sword seemed to be of great weight.
It seemed to be extremely slow, but it blocked the person opposite him from the three-foot-long green front, as if his swordsmanship was changing rapidly.
"Senior Brother Huang!!"
Ye Jingshuang couldn't help shouting at this time.
Hearing this sound, the two people fighting immediately turned back, and were stunned at the same time, followed by each flying palm.
Just as a bang was heard, the Gang Qi dispersed, and the two figures suddenly separated.
"Hahaha, Huang Xuan, I haven't seen you for three years, your swordsmanship is not as good as before!"
The master of the Yunshan Sword Sect laughed, his words full of jokes.
Huang Xuan shook his head slightly and said,
"The [Great Thousand Peaks] seems clumsy but skillful. The important thing is to lift it with ease.
" You only had its shape three years ago. See you again today, and it still looks like this...
"Ling Buyi, the way of martial arts is like Sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat. You said that I am not as good as before, but I think you... are not as good as eight years ago."
The two people suddenly spoke, not to be outdone in their words.
Ling Buyi became angry when he heard what Huang Xuan said:
"You fart!"
"Smell it!"
"Are you a three-year-old?"
"That's two years older than you."
"Whoever is older will die first. !"
"Then you will provide for me until I die?"
"I will fight with you!"
"Come on, who is afraid of whom!?"
Jiang Ran listened to the two people arguing, and really felt like a seven or eight-year-old child. There's a fire here.
Couldn't help but glance at Ye Jingshuang.
Ye Jingshuang covered her face and whispered:
"Senior Brother Huang and Senior Brother Ling of Yunshan Sword Sect have never been on good terms.
"Two people can fight for a whole day for a chicken feather, and curse each other for three days. Three nights.
"This... is not surprising anymore."
"..."
Jiang Ran didn't know what to say for a moment.
However, other members of Liuyun Sword Sect no longer cared about their senior brothers, and came to Jiang Ran and others one after another.
Surrounding Ye Jingshuang:
"It's great that you're okay, Junior Sister Ye!" "
We just received the news a while ago, and we thought... Senior Sister Ye, you scared me to death."
"Senior Sister Ye, you are so thin . Ah, this period of time must be difficult. If your master saw you like this, he would be heartbroken to death?" "
Who are they? Are they all friends of Junior Sister?"
This member of Liuyun Sword Sect said Among them, some are older and some are younger. The older one is in his thirties and the younger one is only fifteen or sixteen years old.
Ye Jingshuang was surrounded by chatter and chatter.
Li Tianxin silently took two steps back, feeling a buzzing pain in his head.
Zhang Zhihua, on the other hand, looked at this scene and felt inexplicably warm.
At this moment, the tinkling sound started again.
But Huang Xuan and Ling Buyi started fighting again.
Everyone looked up and heard a little girl next to Ye Jingshuang pouting:
"Senior Brother Huang, why are you still fighting him? We have already found Senior Sister Ye, please stop fighting!" "
That's right, I'm hungry."
"How long are they going to keep fighting? Is there no food to eat today?" "
Someone can go up and stop me. If the fight continues, there will be no end."
"Who can go up and stop them? Senior Brother Huang's martial arts has become more and more sophisticated in recent years. Even the master can't win within a hundred moves."
"Then can the person on the other side stop Ling Buyi?"
"It's difficult to estimate... If someone had this ability, they would have taken action long ago."
"Eh... no. Good!"
Suddenly someone exclaimed:
"They are really hot."
Liuyun Sword Sect and Yunshan Sword Sect had some disagreements with each other because of their names.
When disciples meet, they often refuse to give in to each other.
It's just that in the past, it was all concentrated on the Five Sects Sword Club, and any conflicts would be resolved there.
Even if something really happened, the elders in the sect would still protect him.
But now, meeting each other at the foot of the Red Maple Mountain, a fierce fight would lead to something big.
Then there really is no way to end it.
However, these two people are very powerful in martial arts and cannot be stopped by ordinary disciples.
Seeing that the swords of these two men were getting faster and faster, their sword intentions were aimed at each other's vital points.
Even Ye Jingshuang couldn't help frowning and stepped forward with intention, but she also knew that although Liuyun swordsmanship was superb and she could compete with them... but it was impossible to stop them. .
As she pondered, she couldn't help but look at Jiang Ran:
"Brother Jiang...can you please take action to separate them."
Hearing what Ye Jingshuang said, several disciples of the Liuyun Sword Sect were stunned.
Can't help but look at Jiang Ran.
Seeing that he was so young, I didn't immediately believe that he had such ability.
Jiang Ran thought for a moment, then nodded:
"It's natural."
People from the Liuyun Sword Sect were a little hesitant to speak when they heard what he said.
But Ye Jingshuang said so, and Jiang Ran was still so confident. If they stepped forward to stop him, wouldn't it be a slap in the face?
He had no choice but to stand aside and give Jiang Ran a sweat.
However, he saw Jiang Ran's figure swaying, stepping out of numerous shadows, and in a blink of an eye, he was already among Huang Xuan and Ling Buyi.
Huang Xuan rolled his eyes, and his heart suddenly froze:
"Nine steps of heavenly stems?"
He immediately stopped his strength.
