Chapter 217 Aftermath
Cui Yuanyang didn't know why Zhao Changhe was still here. After so much trouble, it was almost dawn. She didn't dare to be known that she spent the night with a man in the inn. Taking advantage of the faint light, she ran back to Wang's guesthouse to be a good girl.
Zhao Changhe didn't even check out of the room. She hid inside leisurely to study the gold foil.
There was no more movement of the gold foil for the time being. According to the experience of the last "unblocking", it would have to wait until tomorrow. This time, Zhao Changhe was watching the replay of the game with Situ Xiao during the discussion of martial arts.
This matter is very important. It is the most important weight for him to catch up with others' understanding of martial arts accumulated over many years in a short period of time. No one has such a unique condition.
Situ Xiao's practice is mainly to practice external skills, or to say it in a more fantasy way, it is mainly to strengthen the body. According to rumors, their Shenhuang Sect has obtained a complete ancient inheritance, which corresponds exactly to the "Tao body" information just obtained.
From this point of view, what Shenhuang Sect has obtained may not be complete. If it is complete, it may really break through the upper limit of this world, and the sect leader Li Shentong will not be only fifth on the Heavenly Ranking. Of course, there is also a possibility that although the inheritance is complete, it lacks some auxiliary treasures and cannot be refined.
No matter which one it is, Situ Xiao's things are worth referring to.
Situ Xiao said that his palm method is not fierce... A careful review shows that although he trains his body, uses a heavy sword, and pays attention to bursts, Situ Xiao's practice is not really "fierce", but rather steady.
All his skills have a sense of stability. He sticks to himself, defends and counterattacks, and only bursts out extremely strong power at the moment of attack, in order to kill the enemy in one fell swoop.
If the palm method of the Wang family is like a huge wave emptying, Situ Xiao's is as immovable as a mountain.
What's interesting is that he also plays drunken boxing. The stumbling posture of his body, the nature of his moves that are as immovable as a mountain, and his casual and heroic temperament are combined together, which is very interesting.
His body training emphasizes horizontal training, the direction of being invulnerable to swords and spears, and he doesn't even feel anything when his iron head hits the door. Zhao Changhe doubts that ordinary swords and knives can only leave a mark on Situ Xiao. If it were his master Li Shentong, who is fifth on the Heavenly Ranking, how fleshy should he be? Can the dragon bird be chopped off?
This seems to be the prerequisite for one person to defeat the army...
Regardless of whether he can be chopped off or not, Zhao Changhe repeatedly pondered on Situ Xiao, first learning the meaning of "stability", as well as the dodging method of drunken steps, lower body motionless, and upper body like a willow.
These are the relatively missing links in Zhao Changhe's martial arts, and it is in this continuous battle and review that he summarizes himself and makes up for the shortcomings.
In addition to the assistance of the heavenly book, Zhao Changhe is a genius.
…………
While the Wang family is making a lot of plans from the perspective of the Wang family and Zhao Changhe's wife is really good from the perspective of Situ Xiao and others, this night is really cool.
Most of them are peers with similar qualifications and similar understanding of martial arts. Even if there is a gap in practice, it is still appropriate to discuss martial arts. It is not easy to meet one person from all over the world. It is rare for so many people to get together to drink and discuss martial arts. For martial artists, it is really refreshing.
In the eyes of the outside world, this is almost a martial arts event that can be recorded in history. In fact, the latent dragon style of this night will surely be widely spread, so that the world can truly recognize how powerful and excellent the names that have always only flashed in the books of troubled times are.
The elegant and calm Wang Zhaoling, the fierce and unparalleled Paitian Zhenhai.
The cold and beautiful Xia Chichi, the fierce and fierce Huxiao Bingpo.
The cute and lovely Cui Yuanyang, the long and vast purple air and clear river.
And the heavy sword that runs across the hall, the broadsword that echoes out, breaks the political thinking with the blood of the warriors, and leads this night of romantic swordsmanship, sword laughter, and drunken drinking.
No one knows where Zhao Changhe, who is regarded as the leader, went afterwards, but they also know that he clearly expressed his refusal to participate in the competition. There is a sigh in their hearts. The subsequent discussion of martial arts without him is indeed missing a scenery.
In short, this night has been spread outside, and it can be talked about for a long time in the world.
The Wang family’s goal has also been achieved.
Not only did they have a secret agreement with the Four Symbols Sect, but few people remembered their domineering behavior before the event. Instead, most people praised it, believing that it was a great event for the martial arts world.
The impression that the Wang family was the leader of the martial arts world was also planted in many people's minds unconsciously, and successfully released two messages:
First, it doesn't matter whether there is a court or not.
Second, the Wang family has a queen who knows Xia Longyuan's situation best. Daring to do such a thing basically means that Xia Longyuan's situation may be more serious than imagined.
Not only did the momentum of the Wang family's separatist regime begin to gather, but it also invisibly promoted the secret plots of other people with ill intentions, and the world became more turbulent.
A game that everyone from organizers to contestants to onlookers was happy, and the only thing that was damaged was the prestige of the court.
Thousands of miles away, Jinling.
Tang Wanzhuang stood on the city wall, looking at Maitreya's camp from afar, her eyes as calm as water.
"Master..." A subordinate of the Demon Suppression Division hurriedly reported: "We received a letter from a carrier pigeon, and the Langya Martial Arts Contest has ended."
"Oh? Who is the winner?"
"It is said that Situ Xiao and Zhao Changhe led the trend in the wrong direction. I don't know how it turned into just sparring without ranking. The potential dragons present had a great time, and the martial arts style was really displayed." The subordinate said: "The brothers present said that this was the most enjoyable martial arts contest in the past few years."
Tang Wanzhuang showed the first smile in more than half a month, and repeated in a low voice: "Situ Xiao and... Zhao Changhe..."
Subordinate: "..."
He scratched his head in confusion and continued to the point: "Since there is no ranking, the power that the Wang family wants is still missing a layer. After all, they have accepted the ranking and received the prize, and they really have a sense of subordination... I think the hidden dragon is unruly, and few are happy. It is also in line with the deduction that it has become this situation. What is more surprising is that after Zhao Changhe fought with Situ Xiao, he never participated in the subsequent martial arts discussion again, and he looked extremely resistant."
Tang Wanzhuang smiled and said: "How can it be that the hidden dragon is unruly and few are happy... There are only a few who are not happy, such as Zhao Changhe."
"Well, maybe." The subordinate said: "But the Wang family basically has what they want. , they have already started to appoint and dismiss officials themselves, and County Sima Zhang was dismissed for a reason... Let's not talk about whether this reason is true or false, how can they appoint and dismiss officials? This is a rebellion! "
Tang Wanzhuang put away her smile and sighed: "I should have known it from the moment I invited the birthday party."
"What should we do now?"
"What's the use of asking me? I don't have the power to mobilize troops." Tang Wanzhuang said calmly: "Neither Maitreya nor I are leaders of troops. We will not stay here in a stalemate. It's meaningless. He will definitely return to the headquarters in the next few days to preside over matters in other directions, and I will also return to Beijing. There are still many things that need my decision. "
Asking her, her voice gradually became lower, as if she was talking to herself : "I should also go and see His Majesty again... What on earth is he thinking..."
"No..." The subordinate hesitated: "If the Wang family is just separatist, it's fine for now. What if they really send troops south to echo Maitreya..."
"Each of them has their own agenda, how can it be so easy to form an alliance... The Wang family only started to have evil intentions after Maitreya started the uprising. There was no communication between the two before. If they really want to achieve such cooperation, they must have envoys going back and forth. The Saint of the Four Symbols Sect participated in the martial arts discussion, so she is an envoy of the Four Symbols Sect. I guess the two families may have reached some agreement first."
The subordinate thought for a while: "Indeed. I wonder why the Four Symbols Sect is willing to participate in this..."
Tang Wanzhuang said very calmly: "The Four Symbols Sect and Maitreya Sect are at odds. Once the Wang family and the Four Symbols Sect have reached an agreement, it is common sense that they will no longer consider Maitreya Sect. After all, the two sides are incompatible in nature, and the Wang family may not look down on Maitreya Sect."
"Zhao Changhe killed Fasheng, and Maitreya Sect's plan was messed up. The current situation is not too good. Is it possible to send an envoy to the north to contact the Wang family? What if they make some great promises..."
Tang Wanzhuang looked far to the north, her eyes were a little sad, and after a long while, she said: "They should have set off."
"Then should we intercept them?"
"Looking for a needle in a haystack, where can we find a passerby?" Tang Wanzhuang suddenly smiled: "I think we don't need to do anything, the Maitreya envoy will be in trouble again..."
