Sword Roaring in the Sky

Chapter 110 Are all Miao people so extravagant? (Fourth update, please give me a monthly ticket)

Nian Xizhao jumped out of the ship with a shake of his body. Sun Yanwan rushed to the side of the ship. He believed that no matter how high Nian Xizhao's martial arts skills were, it would be impossible for him to jump across the Xiangjiang River. It was not that he wanted to see how this young master Nian fell into the water, but he wanted to see how he crossed the river.
Nian Xizhao stretched out his foot and stepped on the surface of the river, passing lightly. After he passed by, the river water seemed to be exploded by a force, and suddenly sprayed up more than ten feet high, like a small fountain.

Sun Yanwan secretly admired him and thought to herself, "This is real martial arts."

Nian Xizhao's lightness skill is not enough to walk on water and cross the river, but he can use the magic skill of Mingwang to bombard the river water. With the help of the recoil force, he can cross the river calmly. Whether it is martial arts or wisdom, he is the best choice.

Sun Yanwan asked, "Is this Miss Gu the wife that Brother Nian is not yet married to?"

Someone nearby answered, "No, she's a chivalrous woman who admires you."

Sun Yanwan couldn't help but blurt out, "So this person is asking if Brother Nian wants another wife!"

"Is this hatred, or... love?!"

Lu Huangshan had just tried to bully Sun Yanwan, but was choked by her words. He now wanted to mend his ways. After all, it was not easy to offend the Grandmaster's apprentice. He took the initiative to explain, "That man just now was the evil master we were talking about, who had just appeared on the Jianghu. He must have been unable to do anything to Brother Nian's newlywed wife, so he randomly arrested people and wanted to frame Brother Nian for something unjust."

Sun Yanwan said: "This guy is really a bit of a piece of shit."

"How could he do that?"

Sun Yanwan almost wanted to lend a helping hand to Nian Xizhao.

However, he thought that his martial arts skills were far inferior to that of the nineteenth disciple of Zen Master Da Ku, who was more than ten years older than him and had unfathomable martial arts skills. With his martial arts skills, he really could not help, so he gave up the idea.

He was just about to ask Sun Lingdie and Namco whether to wait or leave directly. What if Nian Xizhao didn't come back, it would be a bit awkward to stay any longer. What if he came back soon, it would also be awkward to leave now.

Then Sun Yanwan experienced the feeling of being the center of attention. Everyone was looking at him, and it took him a while to react: "Have I become the backbone now?"

Yan Renxiong wanted to stir up trouble, so he stepped forward and said, "Second brother! What should we do next?"

Sun Yanwan thought to herself, "What do you mean, second brother?"

But he was smart after all, and he immediately realized that this "Second Brother" was "Erlang Shen's Second Brother". As soon as Nian Xizhao left, he became the leader on the ship, and everyone was waiting for him to make the decision.

This was the first time Sun Yanwan had been treated with such attention since he traveled through time. He hesitated for a moment and wanted to say, "Let's continue singing and dancing, let's continue playing music, let's continue being happy..." But it was obvious that he couldn't do that. He could only say, "Let's go ashore first and pick up Brother Nian!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a voice saying with a smile: "You don't need to respond, Miao is already here."

Everyone rushed out of the cabin, only to see a young man holding a single-edged sword, completely wet, smiling and looking at the people on the boat, as if he were looking at a group of piglets.

Sun Yanwan was in a trance for a moment, and almost thought that he had returned to the days when he first traveled through time. Master Miao Youxiu broke into the room, with a knife in his hand, looking arrogant and domineering.

Sun Yanwan took a deep breath, stepped out from the crowd, and shouted, "Are you from the Kuai Zai Miao family?"

The young man showed a slight surprise and shouted, "I've heard of you. You wandered through thousands of houses at night, leaving no trace. You roamed the capital as if you were in an empty place. You are Erlang Shen, Sun Yanwan."

"As expected of a Grandmaster's disciple, he has vision and ability."

Sun Yanwan thought to herself, "Besides my master, there are other people in the Miao family. But are all people with the surname Miao so extravagant? No wonder there are so few of them."

He knew that the Miao family had a relationship with the Songyang Sect, but he didn't know if this young man surnamed Miao knew about it. He hesitated for a moment and said something ambiguous, "Why did Mr. Miao kidnap innocent women?"

The young man surnamed Miao laughed and said, "I did think about it, and I really went to steal Nian Xizhao's fiancée. Unfortunately, Nian Xizhao actually asked his junior uncle, Monk Kongchan from Shaochan Temple, to escort the bride, so I didn't dare get close to him!" Sun Yanwan was shocked and thought to himself, "Even with a great master's help, he can still be so reckless. My master Miao Youxiu is far inferior to him."

Monk Kongchan is the youngest among the great masters, but he has a very high seniority. He is the junior brother of Master Daku, the abbot of Shaochan Temple, and his Buddhist Zen skills are superb.

Sun Yanwan asked, "Isn't Mr. Miao afraid of the Grandmaster?"

The young man surnamed Miao chuckled and said, "Of course I can't defeat a Grandmaster, but the Qinggong skills passed down by our Miao family are the best in the world. No matter how high Monk Kongchan's martial arts skills are, he can't catch up with me."

"Besides, how can this be considered an offense? This is just a bet."

"You are all my hostages now. Come off the boat and don't force me to kill anyone."

As soon as the young man surnamed Miao appeared, everyone on the boat fell silent. Everyone stood behind Sun Yanwan, putting him under tremendous pressure.

Sun Yanwan pondered for a moment and then said, "I don't care who Mr. Miao is betting with or what they are betting on. Why don't we have a bet too? If I win, Mr. Miao's trip will be in vain. Let me wait on the Xiang River and continue to enjoy the scenery. If I lose, Mr. Miao will decide everything."

The young man surnamed Miao glanced at him, chuckled, and said, "I'll give Grandmaster Zhang a favor. Tell me, what do you want to bet with me on?"

When Sun Yanwan heard that he was asked to come up with a question, he suddenly perked up and said, "On such a beautiful day, I don't care about martial arts. How about Mr. Miao come up with a question? I will improvise a poem. If Mr. Miao is satisfied, I will win. If Mr. Miao is not satisfied, I will lose."

The young man surnamed Miao laughed out loud and shouted, "I'll bet you a poem!"

"Let's talk about picking up the bride..."

Sun Yanwan had just said "OK" when he added, "And we were never in love!"

Everyone on the boat was shocked. This question was tricky and strange. It required marriage, but no mutual affection. How difficult could it be? Besides, the Songyang School was the leader of the Ten Great Sword Schools, not the Ten Great Academies. It was one of the Three Sacred Places of Martial Arts, not the Three Sacred Places of Literature. Its disciples were bound to be reliable in martial arts. What did literary talent have to do with it?
Lu Huangshan couldn't help but said, "Second brother, don't gamble with him. This question is too disadvantageous!"

Little Fairy Hu couldn't help but worry and cried out, "How can it be so difficult? They want to get married, but they don't love each other? Isn't it..."

She was speechless for a moment and couldn't think of how to continue.

Only Sun Lingdie and Namco showed joy. The two women looked at each other and the corners of their mouths curled up slightly.

Sun Yanwan answered without hesitation: "I am ashamed to hide my sleeves in the sun, and I am too lazy to put on makeup because of the spring."

The young man surnamed Miao sneered and said, "It's just average!"

Everyone on the boat was worried.

Sun Yanwan continued, "It's easy to find priceless treasures, but it's hard to find a lover."

The young man surnamed Miao was slightly shocked and immediately showed a look of surprise.

Sun Yanwan pondered for a moment before adding the last line: "Tears silently fall on the pillow, my heart breaks among the flowers. Since I can glimpse the spirit magpie, why should I hate Sun Lang?"

The young man surnamed Miao let out a long roar and jumped into the river!
