Chapter 239 Chapter 238
"The purpose of splitting up is to find the missing villagers as soon as possible. Let's go." Jiang Chengli overcame all opinions and asked people to split up and try to find the villagers as soon as possible.Through the words of Ouyang's disciples, most of them have opinions on Jiang Cheng.

The wind and snow were so strong that people couldn't open their eyes. Jiang Cheng led the way ahead and said, "I'm leading the way ahead. The wind and snow are too heavy, the mountain is steep and the road is slippery, and people may be buried under the snow. Please help me." Pay attention to your feet. Everyone must follow closely on the road and don't get separated."

"Hmm... so cold." Xia Hou Jinxuan wrapped his coat tightly behind him, rubbed his hands, and shivered all over. Seeing that A Mu seemed to be fine, he leaned over to Shen Mu and asked, "A Mu, are you not cold?" ?"

"Fortunately..." Shen Mu was actually not cold at all, he just gathered the fire spirit power silently, and the snowflakes that fell on him immediately turned into water vapor.

Xia cast a disdainful glance at Xiahou Jinxuan and said, "Why come out if you think it's cold, just go back to the villa."

"Uh..." Xiahou Jinxuan said awkwardly, "Miss Xia, are you still angry with me?"

"Hmph! If it wasn't for your crow's mouth..." Xia said Xiahou Jinxuan's favor, and he was not angry at all.

Shen Mu also smiled faintly, feeling that Xiahou Jinxuan's crow's mouth is simply magical.

Xiahou Jinxuan looked helpless: "Miss Xia, you have been calling me Crow's Mouth, so there are two things I should clarify with you. First, I kindly remind you to be careful, but the girl doesn't care. How can I be blamed for being a crow’s mouth because of the loss of the purse. Second, it is recorded in ancient books that crows used to be divine birds for auspicious predictions.

"..." Shen Mu was speechless.

Xia Ye rolled her eyes and said angrily, "I care so much about you! Crow's mouth, crow's mouth, crow's mouth, crow's mouth!"

"..." Xiahou Jinxuan shook his head and sighed, "It's a disaster without reason."

The wind and snow were getting bigger and bigger, and people couldn't even open their eyes. Shen Mu was afraid that something bad would happen to Xia, so he followed behind leisurely, so that even though the wind and snow were very heavy on the road, nothing happened. Condition.

Half an hour later, the crowd finally found the villagers who had lost on the snow-stone road, and brought the villagers back to Zhejian Villa.

Back in the villa, Shen Mu and the others were about to rest in the inner courtyard.

At this time, the stylus and Ling Yin stepped on the sword of the Shushan School flew to the villa, and went into the villa to congratulate the leader Ouyang.

"Hey, there's a lot of snow here, but it's still not as much as on the mountain, haha." The stylus in a blue Taoist robe with a huge writing brush on his back is apprentice Xie Cangxing, shaking the snowflakes on his body, and laughed.

Ling Yin was dressed in wide sleeves and relaxed skirts, her hair was combed with jade, and a string of pearls and jade hung in her ears, looking elegant, and said to the stylus: "Brother, you can stimulate your true energy to keep out the cold."

"Haha, it's okay if the wind and snow in the mountains were worse than this just now. The coldness is nothing."

Tie Bi laughed, walked to the gate of the inner courtyard of Zhejian Villa, clasped his fists to the guarding disciples and said, "You two, we are disciples of the Shushan Sect. This time, we are here to congratulate the leader Ouyang under the order of the leader. Please also inform One sound."

When the gatekeeper disciple of the inner courtyard saw that it was the person from Mount Shu, a smile appeared on his ice-like face, and he clasped his fists and said, "So it's the Taoist leader of the Shu Mountain School, I'll report it right away!"

"They are...flying...flying here!" Xia said in shock, "Mu, Sister Mu, am I right?"

Mu Changlan nodded and said: "Well, that should be the famous Shushan School's sword control technique."

Xia enviously said: "Wow, this so-called "Shushan School" is so powerful."

"..." Shen Mu saw Xia's envious look on his face. If Xia knew that the head of Shushan was poor, he would call Master when he saw him. I don't know how surprised Xia would be.

Ouyang Ying, the leader of the martial arts alliance, met with Tie Bi and Ling Yin of the Shushan School in the main hall.For some reason, Tie Bi laughed when he saw Xie Cangxing.The crowd dispersed, Jin Xuan stared at Xia's back in a daze, and Lao Xie let out a naughty laugh...

In the middle of the night, in the disciple's room, the disciples of Ouyang's family gave Jiang Cheng a lot of disdain.

"It's really maddening! That guy Jiang Cheng said that there were bandits in Qianfengling, so the master sent us there, but after searching for several days, there was no sign of him! Wouldn't it be a waste of time for us to delay our preparation for the sword tasting meeting?" Said, and made us half-tired!"

"Exactly! I heard from Xu Shi and Xu Jie that this guy showed his face in front of Master with the young masters of Huangfu's family and Xiahou's family again today. Senior brother, we can't always let Jiang Cheng play us like this!"

All the disciples talked about Jiang Cheng one after another, and the eldest disciple Xiao Changfeng couldn't understand Jiang Cheng even more. The relationship between their disciples became very tense.Xiao Changfeng likes Ouyang Qian, but falling flowers are intentional, and flowing water is ruthless. Ouyang Qian has long attached her love to Jiang Cheng, and she respects Xiao Changfeng at a distance, which makes him resentful.

However, Xiao Changfeng had already made up his mind, so he waved his hand and said, "Don't talk about it! There are many outsiders in the villa now, so don't talk nonsense. If it reaches Master's ears, we will have no good fruit. The meeting will be held in a few days The official start is about to start, you should also practice your sword skills more, and then don't let Jiang Cheng steal the limelight by himself."

"Yes, senior brother." All the disciples nodded in agreement.

On the second day, Xiahou Jinxuan went to the main hall to meet Ouyang Ying and Huangfu Yiming. Xiahou Jinxuan's father and second uncle also arrived. Tomorrow is the Sword Tasting Conference.Accompanying the second uncle back to the guest room, the second uncle encouraged him to travel more on the way to gain more knowledge.

Shen Mu went out for a stroll alone, and met Jiang Cheng on the road outside the villa with a smart-looking Jianghu man dressed in gold and red clothes.

At this time, Tang Feng, Jiang Cheng's good friend, came to buy goods.Tang Feng later changed his name to Tang Hai, he is Tang Yurou's father, he is skilled in martial arts, and values ​​love and righteousness.He is willing to give everything for the person he cherishes, so people in the world call him Xiao Mengchang.

Jiang Cheng introduced Tang Feng and Shen Mu, and they exchanged a few pleasantries, and talked about the sword tasting meeting. Jiang Cheng seemed to have a plan for the sword tasting meeting, and left to practice in a hurry.

In the past few days, Shen Mu, Xiahou Jinxuan, Jiang Cheng, and Huangfu Zhuo only saw each other as brothers and sisters, chatted happily with each other, and the trust between each other also increased, and many suspicions before were gone.

The next day, the Sword Tasting Conference was officially opened, and the inner courtyard of Zhejian Villa was full of people. On the high platform, the martial arts leader Ouyang Ying sat on it, looking down at the crowd.

"Leader Ouyang!" Everyone clasped their fists in unison.

Ouyang Ying was dressed in a sable brocade robe, with torch-like eyes, holding on to three long beards, and said to the crowd: "Ouyang Ying thanked all fellow martial artists for joining us. The Sword Tasting Conference starts today! Within fifteen days, anyone who wins the martial arts competition and wins All chivalrous men with excellent character and morality can get a weapon presented by Folding Sword Villa. As the new leader of martial arts, I hope that there will be more young talents in this martial arts competition, so as to promote my style of advocating martial arts and righteousness !"

"Okay!" Everyone said in unison, the shouts were deafening, and they started the preliminary selection competition one after another.

Located in Tiandi Mountain Villa in the Western Regions, Shangguan Xin, the head of the Shangguan family with strong financial resources, said with a smile to Ouyang Ying beside him, "I haven't seen you in a few months, brother Ouyang is very energetic. Just now on the stage, I didn't lift my breath, but my voice shook all directions. It is obvious that I have great skill." It’s a great entry again.”

Shangguan's family had contacts with Huihe, Tufan, Dangxiang, Dashi, and Persia in the Western Regions.Tiandimen is good at using hidden weapons and strange weapons, and his moves have the characteristics of both the Western Regions and the Central Plains; he is also good at using poison.People in the rivers and lakes called the Shangguan family "the sky is full of flowers and rain, and there is no trace on the ground."

"Haha, Brother Shangguan is flattering you." Ouyang Ying laughed and said, "Brother Shangguan was almost late this time, and he will be punished with three glasses of wine later as a punishment."

"Hehe, it should be, it should be." Shangguan Xin said with a smile.

On the other side above the high platform, Huangfu Zhuo's father, Huangfu Yiming, whispered to Huangfu Zhuo: "Zhuo'er, the Ouyang family only has two daughters now, so they can't make a fortune. The Shangguan family had no heirs before, and this is just the beginning of the continuation. As for Xiahou’s family, huh, don’t mention it. This conference is a good time for you to make a name for yourself. Don’t lose face to my Huangfu family. Let everyone in the world take a good look at it. Compared with Ouyang’s family, our Huangfu family is also Don't give up."

"Yes." No matter how cold and arrogant Huangfu Zhuo was, in front of his father, he was obviously an obedient child, and he didn't dare to object at all, so he nodded quickly.

Huangfu Yiming was ambitious and wanted Huangfu Zhuo to take the lead.There will be several battles to come, Xia will face Huangfu's disciples, and Mu Changlan will face Shangguan's disciples. If you win, you will get two weapons: Xuan Zhan and Twin Jade.

The weapons at the Sword Tasting Conference were inferior to Shen Mu. Shen Mu didn't like it at all, so he just went up and defeated the disciples of Ouyang's family, and got a Qinghong Sword.

In Shen Mu's eyes, this Qinghong sword is only slightly better than the iron sword.

On the ring, Xiao Changfeng challenged Jiang Cheng to his master, "Fourth Junior Brother, how about it, are you willing to compete with me?"

Jiang Cheng didn't want to compete with his fellow disciples, so he asked Ouyang Ying for instructions: "Master..."

"..." Ouyang Ying: "On the ring, there are no sects, only each other."

Jiang Cheng still hesitated: "The disciple dare not, how can he use force against the senior brother?"

"Fourth Junior Brother!" Xiao Changfeng said: "We are always careful when dismantling our moves. Everyone has practiced under Master for so many years. Don't you really want to know who is stronger among us? Now I challenge you, don't you?" Are you looking down on me by challenging me?"

"Eldest brother, I have no such intention." Jiang Chengdao.

Xiao Changfeng smiled and said, "Then come up, no need to say anything!"

"That's right, fourth brother, the master said that there are no sects in the arena, only you and me. You go!" The disciples of Ouyang's family also booed one after another. In fact, they thought that Jiang Cheng could not beat Xiao Changfeng, and wanted to see Jiang Cheng. Cheng's joke.

"..." Jiang Cheng still hesitated, not because he was afraid, but because he didn't want to hurt the feelings of his classmates.

At this time, Ouyang Qian came over and said to Jiang Cheng: "Fourth senior brother, go. Now all sects and factions are watching, if you continue to refuse, the matter will not end well."

"Second miss,... I see." Jiang Cheng was very helpless, he could only slightly nod his head, then clasped his fists at Ouyang Ying and said, "Master, I'm going."

Ouyang Ying nodded and said, "The martial arts competition will end soon."

"Yes, Master." Jiang Cheng agreed and stepped onto the ring.

Xiao Changfeng stared at Jiang Cheng contemptuously, and said in a low voice, "If you lose, leave Ouyang Qian."

"What?!" Jiang Cheng was slightly taken aback.

Xiao Changfeng snorted coldly: "Hmph, don't you dare?"

"..." The anger in Jiang Cheng's heart was burning: "Brother, the second lady is not an object, she has her own ideas, I can't accept this bet. But for this competition, I will do my best!"

"Hmph!" Xiao Changfeng snorted coldly, his eyes full of disdain, but before he could be proud for a moment, Jiang Cheng knocked him down with two moves.

Xiao Changfeng lay on the ground, with both shock and anger on his face: "No, it's impossible—you...you bastard..."

"...Brother, let me go." Jiang Cheng wanted to step forward to support Xiao Changfeng.

But Xiao Changfeng's eyes showed murderous intent, "I didn't lose, I just... didn't lose! Drink up!" Xiao Changfeng slapped Jiang Cheng's chest with his palm.

"Hmm!" Xiao Changfeng swung his sword unwillingly to sneak attack, Jiang Cheng's magical power erupted, knocking him down on the stage with one palm, and then fell down himself...

"What a domineering blow!" Shen Mu was also secretly amazed, this Jiang Cheng has the blood of ancient Chi You, it's really not his fault.

Ouyang Ying hurriedly stopped the competition, asked his disciples to carry the seriously injured Xiao Changfeng back, and then said to everyone: "I made you laugh at me, my disciples made such a mess, and spoiled everyone's happiness. I am here to accompany you. Today The contest is over for the time being, and will continue tomorrow."

Ling Yin from the Shushan School is treating Xiao Changfeng, saying that his meridians are damaged and he needs to rest for a year.Listening to the conversation between their brothers and sisters, it was said that Jiang Cheng's body seemed to be emitting demonic energy, but a disciple heard these words and immediately reported it to Ouyang Ying.Mu Changlan returned and informed Jiang Cheng of being held in the dungeon. Jinxuan was worried that someone would take the opportunity to harm him.

In the dungeon, Jiang Cheng was thinking about what the power in his body was. At this moment, a man in black came to his cell door. He called himself Dead Tree and wore a white mask.He said that Jiang Cheng is a demon, and Jiang Cheng will come again when he needs it in the future.Jiang Cheng went to see his master, and the master obeyed the suggestions of his disciples and expelled him from the villa.

In the early morning of the next day, the cold wind was fierce, and the icicles hung on the eaves. Jiang Cheng left the villa with his luggage helplessly, not knowing where to go, and worried about Ouyang Qian even more.On the way, I met Shen Mu, Xiahou Jinxuan, Mu Changlan and Xia.

"You..." Jiang Cheng hesitated to speak.

Xia stepped forward and said, "We all know that. I heard that you are going to be driven down the mountain. You can't be blamed for everything. How could the head of the Ouyang sect punish you in such a random way?"

"...Master..." Jiang Cheng still hesitated to speak.

Shen Mu looked at the first generation of Demon Lord, who now looked gentle, shook his head secretly, and asked, "Brother Jiang, what are your plans for the next step?"

"...." Jiang Cheng pondered for a while, then shook his head, and spit out three words: "I don't know..."

Shen Mu sighed and said, "Oh, you have let down the painstaking efforts of the master of the Ouyang family. If you think about it carefully, the master of the Ouyang family just expelled you from the villa, but didn't say that you can't go back."

"...but Master said he can't keep me anymore." Jiang Cheng hesitated.

"Did the master of the Ouyang sect say that he would drive you out of the gate?" Shen Mu said.

"...No." Jiang Cheng shook his head.

"That's it!" Shen Mu said, "Brother Jiang, according to my guess, the matter is now on the cusp. If you stay in the villa and have any quarrels with your juniors, the situation will inevitably deteriorate further. You went down the mountain because you hoped that things would cool down quickly, lest something irreversible happen under the rage of the crowd. Besides, if you make a name for yourself outside, you will return home in glory after you become famous, and your classmates will have nothing to say at that time Said. I believe that Ouyang Clan Master treats you like this out of painstaking efforts."

"...It's really like this..." Jiang Cheng's eyes fell on Xiahou Jinxuan.

Xiahou Jinxuan also nodded and said: "Shi Bo raised you up since childhood, brother Jiang should know better than anyone else what he is like and how he treats you. Isn't what I just said unreasonable?
"Master treats me like a father and son... The kindness of nurturing can never be repaid in life, you are right..." Jiang Chengmu showed a trace of determination.

Xiahou Jinxuan said: "Since that's the case, Brother Jiang, you might as well go down the mountain with me first, and travel around to relax. How about returning here when the storm calms down?"
