There are four of them in total, except for Zhou Liefeng and the crane swordsman, the other two are monk Qinggang from Ailao Mountain Tusi Mansion, and the other is Caidie Fairy from Red Orange Valley in Dalou Mountain.
?Diancang Sword Sect Qijue Gongxiang is famous for its Diantang Qijue swordsmanship. The seven absolutes are pointing, collapsing, picking, wiping, chopping, stabbing, and cutting. His swordsmanship is not fancy, but focused on practicality, there are no routines, only sword moves. Corresponding to the simple and practical sword moves, the swords of his disciples are mostly heavy swords and hard swords. When fighting the enemy, he is fierce and quick, and can often find the enemy's flaws in a few strokes, and seize the enemy's opportunity first. Moreover, Qijuejian pays attention to once it strikes, it will go forward without hesitation, and it will never retreat, so as long as it finds a flaw and loses it first machine, it will be suppressed until it is killed. Therefore, when people in the martial arts encounter people from the Diancang Sword Sect, they often do not do anything unless they have to.
Of course, the Diancang Sword Sect is a very well-behaved sect in Jianghu, and its school rules are almost harsh, and it is an absolutely famous sect. Otherwise, with its sharp swordsmanship and ruthless actions, I am afraid it will become the target of public criticism in the martial arts world. .
Because of its unique swordsmanship, the Diancang Sword Sect accepts very strict apprentices, only seven or eight-year-old children from poor families with clean backgrounds. Because the Qijue Sword Art has extremely high requirements on the mind and character of the practitioner, it must be practiced to the state of selflessness in which death is at home. To achieve this state, the harsh training of the body is also very unbearable. For the children of ordinary families, parents would never have the heart to let their children suffer this kind of suffering, and those children would never be able to persevere and achieve something. Only children from poor families, when they go up the mountain to learn from their masters, their parents have to sign a contract of selling themselves with the Diancang Sword Sect. The contract has already sold the child to the Diancang Sword Sect, and the contract also states that they will practice martial arts in the mountains. , Injuries are inevitable, and parents must not be held accountable regardless of life or death. Therefore, they have no retreat, so they can endure hardships and hone their bodies and minds before they can achieve something.
It is said that this school first originated from the Mohist Sword School in the Warring States Period. Since Tian Heng's five hundred soldiers committed suicide on the island, the Mohism has disappeared in the Central Plains, but one of its branches has traveled to Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and other places to continue to spread. Cangshan Qijue Palace established the Diancang Sword School, and its swordsmanship, Qijuejian, still continues the momentum of the Mohist school who never goes forward and regards death as home.
Nonghe Swordsman is the head disciple of the seventh generation head teacher Canglang Zhenren of this school. His attire still retains the inheritance of Shangjian of the Mohist sword school in the Warring States period. He is dressed in black linen, with a green cloth baotou, hemp rope around his waist, and straw sandals on his feet. He is of medium build, tall and strong, like a thick rectangular wooden pier, with a dark complexion, side cheeks, high cheekbones and big eyes, a straight nose and a wide mouth. A sword inserted in a broken wooden sheath, the tip of the sheath has been frayed, revealing a small section of bright sword point, which is inserted obliquely in the linen belt around the waist.
This person's temperament is consistent with his square appearance, he doesn't talk much, and most of the time he listens to others.
Monk Qinggang was originally the commander of the chieftain's guards. The reason why he participated in this martial arts conference was because the martial arts conference was held by the emperor of this dynasty, and the venue was different from the previous ones. It was not in the Central Plains, but close to the chieftain's mansion. The border area where he is located, so he came to participate in the meaning of exploring the trend of martial arts.
? Monk Qinggang is from the Dai family. Boys from the Dai family have to do three things since they were young. They are monks to learn culture, get tattoos to ward off evil spirits, and practice martial arts to strengthen their bodies. Monk Qinggang started out as a monk and learned Dai martial arts. When he was an adult, he had learned martial arts well. He was invincible in the ten miles and eight villages. He was finally selected as the commander of the chieftain's guard.
He is tall and tall, dressed in a khaki monk's robe, with half of his shoulders straight, dark skin, a long round face, big eyes and high nose, wide mouth and square jaw, a shiny face, and a shiny bald head. Not particularly talkative either.
Fairy Caidie of Red Orange Valley in Dalou Mountain is the eldest disciple of Granny Caiyi, the owner of Red Orange Valley. The Caiyi mother-in-law was originally a female disciple of Xizi, the elixir of the Central Plains. Later, she fell in love with her master secretly. The Caiyi school is based on the inner strength and mental method of traditional Chinese medicine, and integrates the different skills of Miao and Yao. It is not only good at saving people's medical skills, but also good at killing people in invisible poisonous skills. There are also poisoned ones. But Granny Caiyi has always only lived in seclusion in the Red Orange Valley, and she has few grievances and enmities in the rivers and lakes. This time I came to participate in this martial arts conference just to satisfy the curiosity of the only female apprentice, Fairy Caidie.
As the name suggests, this Fairy Butterfly is dressed in a colorful dress with intricate patterns printed and dyed by Miao Yao, wearing exquisite silver ornaments on her head, tall and tall, with a face like a silver plate, red lips and bright teeth, and she smiles before she speaks. woman.
The four of them first went up to the third floor of Wangjiang Building, but found that all the seats were full, so they had to go to the second floor, and found a seat near the corner. The bartender came up and greeted everyone to order dishes, which were nothing more than fresh river delicacies, seasonal vegetables and the like, and served two jars of good wine. Zhou Liefeng tried his best to persuade everyone to drink, and everyone enjoyed themselves happily. While eating, they chatted about martial arts anecdotes, anecdotes from the rivers and lakes, and their respective stories.The local customs and customs of the area, very happy.
While eating, Zhou Liefeng suddenly felt as if someone was staring at the people at his table. He looked around and saw that everyone was eating and chatting about his own food, but he didn't see anyone paying attention to his table.
It wasn't until his eyes slowly retracted that he realized that in the corner where his table was located, besides his own table, there was another table next to it, and a single guest sat beside it.
This guest is a young man, about sixteen or seventeen years old, with slender eyebrows and eyes, a straight nose and thin lips, a dark complexion, and very handsome and pleasing. He was wearing a black satin coat of good material, which was draped over his body unkemptly at this time, with his chest open, revealing his shiny black solid chest.
In front of this guest is a plate of river crab, a plate of fried bamboo shoots, a plate of ginger vinegar, and a jug of wine. From time to time, he raised his head to look at his table, and looked at the people sitting at the table.
When Zhou Liefeng looked at him, he was pouring a glass of wine and drinking it with his neck up. Zhou Liefeng kept looking at him, as if waiting for him to finish drinking. At this time, Swordsman Nonghe, Monk Qinggang, and Fairy Caidie who were at the same table with Zhou Liefeng saw the difference in his gaze, and followed his gaze, and at the same time, they all saw the young man.
The young man put down his wine glass, and suddenly saw the four people at the next table staring at him, he couldn't help being startled, and just as he didn't know what to say, Zhou Liefeng stood up and walked over with the wine glass.
"Brother, is your comrade here to participate in the martial arts conference?"
"Exactly," the man nodded, "why does your lord ask?"
