Chapter 19 Dragon Slaying

In the small pavilion on the West Lake, Li Chengen and Ye Ying sat opposite each other, listening to the wind and drinking tea.

"Dragon Slaying Conference?" Li Chengen took a sip of tea and flicked his tongue to relieve the burning sensation on the tip of his tongue.

Ye Ying drew the mouth of the cup with her slender fingers, thoughtfully, "I've heard about this Bashu royal family. Although the owner Wang Zhaonan is a rich man, he is also very skilled in martial arts. This time I received his invitation card. Said that he captured the blood-eyed Dragon King Xiao Sha, and invited me to go to Juxian Villa in Chengdu to witness Xiao Sha's execution."

Li Chengen blew on the floating tea foam, "Xiao Sha was imprisoned in the depths of the Shaolin Dharma Cave by Master Du Ru after the First World War at the Da Guang Temple, and he has disappeared since King Wisdom and the other three dug the ground to rescue him." , how could it be captured by a local rich man?"

"I think so too." Ye Ying said slowly, "But my second brother came back from a business trip yesterday and told me that everyone in the martial arts world has been talking about a thing called 'Hero Token' recently, and this Hero Token can be exchanged for The treasures and weapons hidden by the Blood-Eyed Dragon King, etc., it is true that they wanted to capture Xiao Sha."

Li Chengen raised his chin and stared sideways at the withered lotus in the lake outside the pavilion, a heavy premonition rose in his heart.As the keen aura of the wolf of the Eastern Capital, Li Chengen has already smelled the bloody aura that is about to sweep across the entire martial arts world.

"Ye Ying, I always feel uneasy." Li Chengen touched the wall of the lower cup with his fingertips, and the tea was still warm. The invitation letter for the Dragon Slaying Conference, I think, could it be that the other masters have also received it?"

Ye Ying sank, "If that's the case..."

Li Chengen smiled reassuringly, "It's okay, I'll write Shaolin Chunyang Wanhua for a while and ask, and then make a decision."

Ye Ying nodded, picked up the cup and realized that the shallow puddle of tea was completely cold, so she got up and groped for the teapot on the table, accidentally touched the hot belly of the pot, and instinctively withdrew her hand.

"Is it too hot?" Li Chengen got up and moved to Ye Ying's side, held his burned fingers to check, but it was not serious if it was slightly red, so he poured out the herbal tea for him and replaced it with new tea.

Ye Ying silently felt his movements, the corners of her mouth curled up unconsciously, suddenly she remembered something, and asked him, "What are you doing in Xiufang again?"

Li Chengen was pouring tea, when he heard this, he subconsciously shook the hot tea in his hand, resisting the urge to throw the teapot out, "Uh... I took away the Shence camp in the mansion a few days ago, I didn't expect them I caught a girl and rescued her. I saw that she was dressed like someone from Xiufang. After careful questioning, I found out that the girl was Yanxiu among the seven shows. I sent her back to the workshop. See Fangzhu Ye."

After finishing speaking, he added nervously, "I didn't go to spend time and drink, Master Ye can testify."

Ye Ying thought it was funny, although he didn't like to show it, but the breath around his body softened a bit, "I believe you are."

A few days later, Ye Hui received Li Chengen's letter, Luo Fuxian opened the pages and read it to Ye Ying.

"So, the abbot of Shaolin, the head of Li, and the owner of Dongfang Valley have all received the invitation letter of the Dragon Slaying Conference." Ye Ying became more puzzled, "Second brother, what is the current situation in the Central Plains?"

Ye Hui gathered the recent information in his mind, and after sorting it out, he said, "Brother, as far as I know, the Wang family said that as long as you become a guest minister of Juxian Villa, you can get a hero order, and those who hold the hero order can get it." Participate in the Dragon Slaying Conference. Since a large number of martial arts practitioners want to obtain the hero order, it has already caused a lot of disputes, and many masters fight each other just to get the other party's hero order. I am afraid that a large number of martial arts practitioners will be killed or injured this time."

"That's how it is." Ye Ying was shocked, "Why Wang Zhaonan did this, I still don't understand."

Ye Hui also had a bitter expression on his face, "Brother, I've thought about it for a long time but still haven't figured it out, what should I do now?"

Ye Ying thought deeply, and after a while he told Ye Hui, "The other four masters who repaired the book, tell us what we think, and ask them to make a perfect plan." Then he slowly opened his eyes with firm eyes, "Even if Juxian Villa is a dragon's pool and a tiger's lair , Ye Mou also wants to make a breakthrough."

In the Mingyue garden, Li Chengen looked at Xiaoqi who was groaning with a headache, "Miss Xiaoqi, why don't you go back to Qixiu? Master Ye is very anxious when he hears that you have been injured like that."

Xiao Qi's face suddenly collapsed, "I'm sorry for Sister Ye, but this girl has already declared that she will leave Xiufang, and what she does has nothing to do with the Xiufang sisters, and she will do what she says."

"Yes, Li also admires the fact that Miss Seven beheaded the Spike General Pang Longwu who was doing evil in Xiufang. It's just... except for sister-in-law and Xueyang, all the people in Tiance Mansion are men. I'm afraid..."

"You just want to drive me away, don't you?" Xiao Qi raised her delicate face, "You think I'm willing to stay here? Hmph, I haven't repaid the kindness I owe you, how can I leave so easily."

"..." It really doesn't matter if you are here or not, but if my family Ye Ying finds out, she can unload me, hey!

Looking at Li Chengen's leaving back, Xiaoqi's usually sharp eyes softened, as if she could not express her feelings.Shuyi ran in from the back door and grabbed Xiaoqi's sleeve, "Sister Xiaoqi, my mother asked me to call you to eat." Xiaoqi smiled happily, took Shuyi's hand and walked out.

Xi Lian was looking at the table serving the dishes, and seeing Xiao Qi coming, she was very happy, she lifted her apron to wipe the water from her hands and pulled her over, "Xiao Qi, has the wound ever hurt? Is there any discomfort in your body?"

Xiaoqi shook her head and forced a smile, "Sister Xilian, thank you for taking care of me, I'm much better."

Xi Lian sensed Xiao Qi's sullenness, and her face darkened, "Xiao Qi, what's the matter? Who bullied you? Tell my sister, is it some disobedient soldier?"

"No." Xiaoqi still shook her head, her voice subconsciously lowered, her fingers twisted around the corner of her clothes, "Sister Xilian, Li Chengen...does he hate me?"

Xi Lian was taken aback, and then burst into a smile, "Silly girl, what are you thinking, Cheng En only hates his enemies, especially girls, and he doesn't even have time to pity her, how could he hate Xiao Qi who is so cute? ?”

"Then why does he keep driving me away?" The more Xiao Qi thought about it, the more wronged she became, and her sweet voice like warm snow became blurred, "That brat, he treats me like a burden!"

Seeing Xiao Qi's teary eyes, Xi Lian was heartbroken, but in a blink of an eye she understood what was happening, and she clapped her hands and laughed, "Oh, my silly girl, seeing how slow my sister is, don't you have a crush on Cheng En?"

Xiaoqi was poked at the center of the matter, her face turned red all of a sudden, she squatted down and pinched Shuyi's face, "Shuyi, didn't you say you shouldn't tell others?" Shuyi tilted her head and said innocently, "I I didn't tell my mother."

"Hahaha, this is a big deal! Xiaoqi, why didn't you say it earlier? We Cheng'en are really blessed to be attracted by such a beautiful, good-looking, and sensible girl, so I will go to tell Cheng'er sister tomorrow." En, tell me, how do you think?" Xilian patted her on the shoulder and teased, "Cheng'en is not too young, and has never married a wife, I think you two are a match made in heaven!"

"Hasn't Chengen always had a girl he likes?" Xiao Qi was not surprised, and only thought that Li Chengen's indifference to her was due to his own interests, but now it seems that he was worrying too much.

Xilian was taken aback, then sighed in disbelief, "Yeah, it's just..."

Before she could finish speaking, Qin Yiyan came back, saw that the food had been set, and his stomach was already roaring, so he invited the two of them to sit down for dinner.Xilian winked at Xiao Qi, "Don't worry, I'll take care of my sister."

Chengdu, Juxian Villa.

"Oh, the honored guest has come, Wang is overjoyed!" Wang Zhaonan greeted him with a smile, and bowed to the ground, Li Wangsheng, Ye Ying, Ye Zhiqing, Dongfang Yuxuan, and Xuanzheng secretly glanced at each other , but also politely return the courtesy to the best of the courtesy.

The courtyard was noisy, and a large number of martial arts practitioners had gathered to compete in full swing. Wang Zhaonan saw that the expressions of the five of them were different, and hurriedly explained, "Several heads, Juxian Villa is now holding this martial arts competition to recruit talents. , the winner can become my Zhuang Keqing and participate in the Dragon Slaying Conference."

Li Wangsheng has been restless since he arrived in Chengdu. People who practice Taoism are most taboo about this matter. He knows that there must be his "old friend" in the huge Chengdu.Now that he looked around, he knew who the old man was.

Xingxiu old fairy Qianqiuzi was sitting and lying at the back of the field, with a peaceful expression like the honor of an old man, Li Wangsheng snorted coldly in his heart, "May I ask the owner of the Wang Zhuang, who is that over there?"

Wang Zhaonan followed his line of sight to look over, clapped his hands and laughed, "That is the famous Xingxiu old fairy, Qianqiuzi, Wang has heard about Xingxiu for a long time, so he is invited to be the judge of the martial arts competition."

Really famous, in a way.

Ye Ying caught an important piece of information as she passed by the eager martial arts practitioners.The few chivalrous men who were still chattering had no idea that someone had paid attention to their words at this time, "I heard that even the sword master, who has never seen the head of the dragon, has appeared, and is setting up a ring in Chengdu to compete with everyone. ! I want to go too!"

Juggernaut?What kind of person is Wang Zhaonan who can make the sword master come?Ye Ying was shocked, and her heart became more and more unpredictable about Wang Zhaonan's identity.

"Several heads came from afar, Mr. Wang didn't take good care of me, and I feel deeply guilty. However, Mr. Wang needs to deal with all the big and small matters in the village. Please go to the guest room to rest first. The competition selection meeting will end in two days. The Dragon Slaying Ceremony will be held." Wang Zhaonan cupped his hands with a smile, and then left.

The five people gathered in the guest room with calm expressions, and everyone was caught in great doubts, "Now, we can only wait for the Dragon Slaying Conference two days later, when everything will be decided." Ye Zhiqing said in a deep voice.

"Seniors, be careful in everything." Although Ye Ying's voice was soft, it was heavy.

Wang Zhaonan, Juxian Villa, Sword Master, Hero Order, and the Dragon Slaying Conference all turned into a spider web, wrapping the five of them, and even the entire Central Plains, tightly within it, unable to break free.

"Commander Li, something is wrong! The Chengdu garrison urgently reported that the Nanzhao army gathered in Chengdu at some unknown time, asking for reinforcements!"

Li Chengen stood up abruptly, his pupils dilated instantly.

Chengdu.Ye Ying!
