Legend of the Great Sage

Chapter Thirty-Eight Banquet (4)

"you!"

Edan grabbed Li Qingshan's lapel and punched him in the face, if the punch was real, his brains would burst to death on the spot. (.)

boom! The gust of wind was surging and overflowing, shaking everyone's clothes.

"Qingshan!" Han Qiongzhi exclaimed.

That punch landed firmly in front of Li Qingshan, blasting the air.

There was no fear on Li Qingshan's face, but the meaning of ridicule was even stronger. Edan's fist was trembling, and the veins on his forehead were exposed, looking like he was about to punch it down at any time.

"Evil pill."

The scribe who was waving a black feather fan suddenly said, this kid might be a victim specially found by Gu Yanying, if he was really provoked and beat the eagle wolf guard to death in public, the situation would become extremely unfavorable.

Edan slowly let go of Li Qingshan's lapel, and said viciously: "Qingshan, that's your name, I remember it!"

"Li Qingshan." Li Qingshan corrected with a smile, thinking: "If you don't kill your dog in the future, I will write the word Li upside down."

The eagle and wolf guards looked at his proud back with both admiration and pity in their eyes, and they were not so dissatisfied with him sitting in the second seat.

As Edan said, it is impossible for Gu Yanying to protect a person forever. Especially in the confrontation between such great powers, a foundation-builder cultivator involved in it will end up in pieces if he is not careful. It is very unwise to provoke and insult a strong man like this. In the future, if the evil pill finds an opportunity, it can be killed with one move. As long as no evidence is left behind, no one can take the evil pill.

Li Qingshan returned to his original position and sat down, nodded to Han Qiongzhi, signaling that she needn't worry.

This time was not all for a moment of ego or a hero saving the beauty, Gu Yanying helped him clear the backlog of resources for free, and he should reciprocate by supporting her and showing his worth.

Si Qing said: "Let's gossip, let's get back to business! Yanying, have you chosen a fighter?"

"You go down!" Gu Yanying smiled and waved her hand, Qiu Haitang bowed and said goodbye, then took a deep look at Li Qingshan, and said through voice transmission with her spiritual thoughts: "Thank you Commander Li for saving me, when I return to Qinghe Mansion, I will be in ** There is a banquet in the building to thank you."

The reckless boy from the countryside in the past has become a man of indomitable spirit in the blink of an eye.

(M) But still as in the past, unyielding, challenging the strong without fear.

Li Qingshan nodded with a smile, then turned his gaze to Si Qing, wondering what the "fighter" he said was? The vicious fight that Gu Yanying mentioned is about to emerge.

"Of course!" Gu Yanying smiled and clapped her hands lightly, "Qian Rongzhi and Yan Xixin come to the front." After a pause: "Li Qingshan, just wait a moment!"

Li Qingshan only heard a sound behind him, a white wolf guard in the late stage of foundation establishment, got up and walked forward, his cultivation base must be regarded as the top among the white wolf guards.

And Qian Rongzhi came out from the corner, but it was a big surprise for everyone. Li Qingshan was still in the middle stage of foundation establishment, but she was only in the early stage of foundation establishment, without any background of any interest. It was already very impressive to be directly promoted to White Wolf Guard. Surprised, it was specially selected by Gu Yanying.

Li Qingshan even noticed that both of them had at least two magic weapons on their bodies, and the White Wolf Guard named Yan Xixin was nothing more than that. It won't show up either. This is probably what Gu Yanying prepared for them, to cope with the fierce battle tonight.

Looking at Si Qing, three people also came out, an old man with gray hair in a long gown. A brawny man with a bare chest and scars all over his body, and a dwarf as short as a monkey.

These three people are all in the late stage of Foundation Establishment, each wearing a magic weapon, although they are all silent, but Li Qingshan has noticed the faint murderous aura entangled in them, he is very familiar with this feeling, and thought:

"These three people, I am afraid that they are all experienced in many battles, and they can kill people without counting. Only after experiencing countless times of life and death, can they sharpen this kind of momentum, and they have a magical weapon, and their strength is absolutely extraordinary for a foundation-building cultivator. Comparable. It’s just that the world is peaceful now, how did they temper it?”

"The three of them are my fighters. They seem to have taken too much advantage of you. Do you intend to give up Yanying?" Si Qing said with a smile holding the winning ticket.

Gu Yanying said: "Stop talking nonsense, if you like talking so much, let's talk about the rules of this battle! Is it going to be a wheel-to-wheel battle according to the old rules?"

Si Qing looked very excited, maybe it was because of drinking, his face was flushed, it was completely opposite to the boring look he had when he was watching the song and dance performance just now, there was almost a hint of fanaticism.

"Most of you on the opposite side are from Qingzhou. You probably don't know much about my Longzhou tradition. Let me introduce it first. The folk customs of Longzhou are martial and warlike. Even the games played by Mengtong Zhizi are also fighting with wooden swords. , and when they grow up, they will change to real swords, and almost everyone practices martial arts, but those who have some talents will go to a hundred schools of thought and work hard to practice."

Li Qingshan has also heard that practicing Qigong is extremely popular in Longzhou, ordinary people can easily get in touch with Qigong, and the number of practitioners is much larger than that of other eight states. Lu, strong men emerge in large numbers.

With the Great Xia royal family as the core, all civil and military officials are powerful practitioners, while the Sangong Jiuqing, Liubu Shangshu and other high-ranking officials and dignitaries are all great monks who have survived three catastrophes. But I don't know what Si Qing meant by saying this, to show off the strength of the Great Xia Dynasty?

Si Qing walked to the center of the hall, and said loudly with that stern voice like a jackal: "Do you know, as a Longzhou native, what is your biggest hobby on weekdays? Watching fighters fight each other in the duel arena!" "

There are almost all duel fields in large and small cities in Longzhou, and those who participate in the duel are called "fighters", from mortal warriors holding weapons to slaughter bears and tigers, to practitioners fighting with magic weapons and spiritual weapons.

The duel arena is always full of voices. Amidst the cheers that attract much attention, souls of the dead return to heaven all the time, and blood splashes on the yellow sand. Even a brothel like a brothel, a place of pleasure, can't compare with the popularity of the duel arena.

Li Qingshan looked at the three people on the opposite side, and said via voice transmission: "Commander Gu, so this is the fierce battle you said!" He was a little unhappy, although he was a little belligerent, but he didn't want to be like a cockfighting dog, as a plaything for "going up Waiting for someone" pastime.

"Do you know how the princes and daughters of the Great Xia royal family got here?" Gu Yanying laughed.

"Of course it was born by the emperor and his concubines."

"No, the emperor didn't even meet most of the current princes and daughters until the day they became princes and daughters."

"How is this going?"

"In the Great Xia Dynasty, any child with royal blood is eligible to be a prince and princess."

"Then how many princes and daughters do you have to seal?" Li Qingshan was surprised. The Great Xia has been passed down for thousands of years and keeps spreading. There are probably millions or even tens of millions of people with royal blood.

"If you want to become a prince and princess, you only need to apply, and you can receive the best teaching in the imperial court, enjoy the resources of the royal family, arrange a duel every once in a while, and finally become a prince and princess, less than one-tenth."

"The other nine out of ten won't be..."

"If you die, you will either walk out with endless glory or be carried out, and you won't even be eligible to enter the imperial mausoleum. The chance of survival is too low, so the number of applicants is as many as you imagined, of course not many. , The Si family has never been short of geniuses."

Li Qingshan was startled, this way of cultivating princes and daughters was like raising Gu, it was extremely cruel. Only true geniuses have the confidence to participate in this elimination, and those who survive in the end must be geniuses among geniuses.

Originally, he thought that Si Qing might be more difficult to deal with than Yihou Jiang Fu, but at this time, he inevitably became more vigilant, not daring to be careless in the slightest. And I also understand what Gu Yanying just said about "thirteen" and "eleven". Obviously, they are not ranked by age, but by strength.

Among the princes, Si Qing can be regarded as the best. It is certainly not easy to become a prince or princess. Once successful, you will get the support of the entire Great Xia royal family. It is normal to have any powerful skills or even magic weapons.

Its true strength is probably far superior to ordinary Jindan monks. Even if Concubine You has the means to challenge Nascent Soul monks, it is not surprising. Only in this way can Jindan monks be willing to be servants of the housekeeper.

Li Qingshan glanced at Si Bao in front again, she naturally became an imperial daughter in this way, and dared to challenge Si Qing, her strength is probably extremely strong, I really can't tell,

I also understood what Gu Yanying meant. Dueling is not just a bloody game for people to enjoy. Even the Great Xia Emperor did not know how many duels he had to become.

Gu Yanying said: "In Longzhou, dueling is a very sacred thing. Some iron rules in duels are even above the law. The emperor cannot change it at will. Pay attention to it. If you violate it, I will be very angry. It's hard to help you."

Li Qingshan nodded slightly, quietly listening to Si Qing's words.

In this world of practice, duels are not low-level entertainment for numb citizens or comfortable nobles who pursue bloody excitement. Nor are fighters slaves or a particular lowly group who sacrifice their lives to satisfy the perverted pleasures of the superior.

Almost every practitioner in Longzhou has the experience of fighting with others as a fighter. In many places, especially in large families, a child's coming-of-age ceremony is often a duel, and relatives and friends are invited as witnesses.

Children must fight powerful beasts or even monsters with their own hands to prove their adult qualifications. If they fail the challenge, they will not be considered adults until they succeed or die in battle.

Si Qing vividly explained some traditions and rules of the duel, and the eagle wolf guards were all shocked by the scene he had painted, speechless.

Si Bao's eyes wandered for a moment, thinking of the wind and fangs blowing towards his face many years ago, he subconsciously touched his right arm.

It was a monster many times bigger than her, with smooth and supple fur. While staring at her with deep eyes, it chewed her arm. Blood flowed from its mouth and fell on the white snow. (To be continued.
