Chapter 4

"Young master, the Hou Ye still needs me. I'll go first and look forward to your good news." Outside the Guanfu, Yan Wei said with a smile.

"Uncle Wei has a smooth journey." Chen Zong also smiled: "By the way, tell Master, I will do my best to fight for it."

"Okay." Yan Wei waved his hand, turned around and strode away without giving up.

For warriors like them, it is normal to get together, separate and reunite, and life and death are nothing.

Yan Wei left, and Chen Zong stayed in the Guanfu in the inner city of the capital for the time being.

This is the master's home, and it is normal to live here by yourself.

According to what Marquis Zhengyuan said, the title of Guoshi is only a preliminary, not a final decision, and needs to wait.

The residence arranged by the Marquis of Zhengyuan for Chen Zong is called Hongfengyuan.

Compared with the outer city, the inner city is not large, but the area is also very wide. In addition to the royal palaces of the royal family, the entire inner city is the residence of the important officials of the dynasty, such as the palace, the mansion, the mansion and so on. , Each mansion covers a very wide area, and there are many courtyards in the mansion, each of which is different.

The Red Maple Garden is full of red maple trees. Now is the late autumn season. The maple leaves are like stars and covered with branches.

Fenghong wins fire, which refers to the leaves of the red maple tree.

The front door of the Red Maple Garden is made of white jade. The rounded white color of the jade and the fiery red maple in the garden complement each other, which is indescribably vivid and thrilling.

Stepping into Baiyumen, Chen Zong smelled a clear and unique smell, which belonged to the smell of red maple, with a unique aroma.

The sheep intestine path paved with white broken jade is winding all the way, maple leaves are falling on the left and right sides, and along the path, there are several houses made of black and red ancient wood.

In the Red Maple Garden, it is fully equipped.

There are bedrooms and other daily use, there are exercise rooms, etc., and there are people who specially deliver meals.

Hongfengping is octagonal in shape, dozens of meters wide, surrounded by rockeries and flowing water, and the maple leaves are hanging down, and the scenery is unique.

The two sword lights of different colors are like butterflies wearing flowers, and they are flying in mysterious and unpredictable trajectories.

The sword was erratic, stabbed straight, sharp and decisive, as if piercing everything in the world,

Invincible, when the strength is about to be exhausted, it suddenly changes, and it slants downwards, which is indescribably tricky and strange.

Another sword appeared from the dead end, like jumping out of the sea of ​​nothingness, attacking the unprepared by surprise, but it contained a terrifying power slash.

The combination of the two swords is just right, just like the perfect interpretation of two master swordsmen with a high degree of tacit understanding.

Diligently practicing, I have seen Yanwei take action many times in the past month, and Yanwei also intends to point Chen Zong. Therefore, in the swordsmanship, Chen Zong's progress is obvious, especially the double swordsmanship, which is a bit more consummate. .

On the red maple flat, countless sword lights surround, or pierce straight, or vertically and horizontally, or bend like a crescent moon, or meander like silk threads, as flexible as eels in the water.

Every sword seems to contain astonishing sharpness, which can cut the steel without causing the slightest damage to everything around it, showing Chen Zong's amazing control of power.

An hour later, Chen Zong retracted his sword, but countless sword lights were still in the air, until after a few breaths, they slowly faded and disappeared.

The sound of crackling sounded, and someone was clapping and applauding, and Chen Zong saw three figures walking along the winding broken jade path.

Two men and one woman, wearing brocade clothes and jade blessings, with long swords on their waists, and a jade pendant of emerald green hanging on the other side, they are extraordinary.

"What advice do you have for the three?" Chen Zong asked in a hurry. He just focused on practicing swordsmanship, and these three people's cultivation base is not low.

"I heard that you are my uncle's disciple?" One of the young men looked Chen Zong up and down, as if he was looking at the goods, which made Chen Zong unhappy, but instead of attacking, he looked at the other party.

According to what the other party said, then this person should be the son of Marquis Zhengyuan.

The son of Marquis Zhengyuan, his identity is not low, and this person's aura fluctuations are at the peak of the ninth turn of the practice, but he doesn't know what the combat strength is, and he should not be low.

"I heard that your purpose is for the title of national scholar?" Seeing that Chen Zong did not respond, the son of Marquis Zhengyuan was a little displeased, his face sank, and the man next to him immediately spoke, with a bit of scolding, while the woman was with a little bit of scolding. With a playful look, he seemed to be watching the fun.

"Yes." Chen Zong nodded.

"I said, you're out of play, the title of national scholar is not something that a bum from a small place can covet. I advise you to go back wherever you come from." The man sneered.

The son of Marquis Zheng Yuan did not speak again, but the meaning contained in his expression was the same.

"You are afraid." Chen Zong ignored the young man, his eyes fell directly on the face of the son of the Marquis Zhengyuan, and he said slowly.

As if he had been guessed, the son of Zheng Yuanhou's face sank involuntarily.

"Afraid..." The young man next to the son of Marquis Zheng Yuan suddenly screamed, his eyes flashing terrifyingly: "Who do you think you are, a bum from a small place, who would be afraid of you."

"Chen Zong, right? Since you don't leave, don't regret it when the time comes. The title of national scholar is not something that someone with some luck can get." , quite imposing.

In fact, the son of Marquis Zhengyuan is not afraid. He also wants to become a national scholar, but he is not sure about it. Naturally, he must reduce some opponents as much as possible. The fewer opponents, the greater the chance of being named a national scholar.

It is best to drive away Chen Zong, but there is no way to drive away, after all, this is the disciple of Lin Shanhou.

A little accidental episode did not disturb Chen Zong's cultivation plan. Chen Zong took every minute to practice hard and improve his cultivation and combat power as much as possible.

When night fell, Chen Zong stood in the red maple flat, closed his eyes, and practiced the Xiaogushan visualization technique.

After a month of rushing on the road, there is simply no time to practice this True Enlightenment Technique, and the progress has slowed down.

Chen Zong also found that the effect of practicing Xiaogushan visualization here seems to be not as good as practicing on the mountaineering list.

"Perhaps, I should look for a mountain outside the city." Chen Zong secretly said.

"Who?" Just after finishing the practice of Xiaogushan visualization technique, Chen Zong felt a slight fluctuation, turned around quickly, his eyes were like sharp swords, and the sword light swept across the night sky.

There was no response, but a strong wind roared, and a dazzling sword light tore the night sky apart.

As soon as he shot, Chen Zong judged that this sword had a three-star limit of combat power, superb swordsmanship, and was a master swordsman.

The red thunder sword was unsheathed, like a red lightning flashing across the sky, hitting the opponent's sword, and the moment the sword body collapsed, it stabbed towards the opponent's door along the trajectory.

No matter who this sneak attack is, Chen Zong will not be polite.

The shadow turned in mid-air, avoiding Chen Zong's sword like a boomerang, killing him from the other side, and what greeted him was the second sword light, which fell as if the world had opened up.

With one sword, the shadow suddenly felt suffocated, as if he had turned into a mountain and was about to be split in half.

Raise the sword to resist, the tyrannical force is like the suppression of the mountains, the whole person is directly slashed, the long sword trembles, the shadow points on the rockery, with luck, swinging the sword in the air, swish, swish, three sharp swords pierce the air, The spinning indefinitely slammed towards Chen Zong, and the black shadow took this opportunity to fly backwards at an extremely fast speed.

After the two swords were shot down and the three sword qi smashed, the shadow had disappeared. After Chen Zong chased a distance, he found that the shadow had completely disappeared.

Chen Zong did not continue to pursue, but returned to Hongfengyuan. It was certain that this shadow must be a martial artist of Guanfu, otherwise he would not be so familiar with Guanfu.

Chen Zong could also feel that the other party did not intend to kill, perhaps he came with the idea of ​​​​teaching himself.

Basically combined, Chen Zong knew who this shadow was, and he didn't mean to tell Zheng Yuanhou, but it was just some small tricks.

...

With a swoosh, a black shadow flew in from the window and landed silently.

"I'm back, what's the result of the test?" Guan Yunxiao, the son of Marquis Zhengyuan, poured himself a glass of wine, and opened his mouth with a sapphire wine glass.

"Young Master Xiao, Chen Zong's combat power has barely reached a four-star level." The man in black took off his hood, revealing the same young man who scolded and ridiculed Chen Zong many times during the day.

"It's barely a four-star combat power, um, it's not surprising that my uncle can be accepted as a disciple. It's not surprising to have such combat power." Guan Yunxiao was surprised at first, and then he drank the fine wine in the glass and smiled indifferently.

Four-star combat power may be rare in Linshan County and other places, and it can be regarded as a well-deserved number one, but it is nothing in a place like the Royal Capital.

For example, Guan Yunxiao's own combat power has reached four stars.

"Young Master Xiao, do you want us to take him..." A trace of ruthlessness flashed in the eyes of the young man in black.

"No need, no matter what, he is my uncle's disciple. If he does too much, he will not give my uncle face, and then my father will not be happy." Guan Yunxiao sneered: "I originally gave him to him. An opportunity to retreat in spite of difficulties, so as not to be embarrassed and ruin my uncle's reputation. Since he refuses, relying on his four-star combat power, then let him suffer, and I know that Wang Du is not a small man. People from somewhere can have fun."

"Young Master Xiao has a plan." The eyes of the young man in black lit up and he smiled.

"I have some ideas, but I still need the cooperation of the other party." Guan Yunxiao smiled coldly.

It's just that Chen Zongpei doesn't cooperate, it's not clear.

"Young Master Xiao, I have an idea that Chen Zong has to cooperate even if he doesn't cooperate." The young man in black rolled his eyes, hehe laughed: "Master Hou didn't tell Master Xiao to find a time to take Chen Zong with him. Going to the Qunlong Pavilion for assessment, I just took this opportunity to hit him hard."

Guan Yunxiao thought for a moment, then nodded, this method is feasible.

Throughout the night, Chen Zong did not rest and continued to practice.

Swordsmanship, kung fu, and Xiaogushan visualization technique, all of which must be practiced, and none of them can be left behind.

In a twinkling of an eye, the sky was twilight, and Chen Zong also ended his training all night and was sitting cross-legged in the red maple flat to meditate.

Since practicing the Xiaogushan visualization technique, the feeling of being in touch with nature is very wonderful, giving Chen Zong the opportunity to always practice outside the house.
