Chapter 21 Fang Changsheng's Shame
The hot sun shines on the mountain and river town, a certain street is blocked, and the surrounding area is full of people and discussions are everywhere.
Lin Zhanhong sat on the eaves, raised his arms to block the dazzling sunlight, and his expression was a little lonely.
That beautiful face still seems to appear before my eyes.
Chen Chen looked up at Lin Zhanhong and said softly: "You are not in the same world as them, so don't expect too much."
Lin Zhanhong looked down at him and said, "I understand."
Chen Chen shook his head slightly and said, "If you don't mind, I want to stay in Shanhe Town, in Lin Mansion, as a guest minister."
Lin Zhanhong was silent for a moment and said with a smile: "The martial arts family, the Lin family, is it time to walk out of Shanhe Town."
......
The sun was very bright at noon. After being away from the mountain and river town, the summer came again.
Li Mengzhou recalled the battle with Bai Luo, and the moment when he was about to break through the realm made him feel a little melancholy.
The traces of that moment began to appear in his mind.
Trying to find something.
But obviously, he didn't get what he wanted.
When consciousness returned, he saw those bright and clear eyes.
Xiao Zhinan Youyou said: "I thought the way to the wasteland would be interesting, but now it seems to be boring."
Li Mengzhou said: "There are also powerful practitioners in the mountains and fields, but they can't be easily touched. Sooner or later, there will be times when you draw your sword. In fact, in addition to fighting, there are many beautiful things in the world, and you must know how to enjoy it."
Xiao Zhinan narrowed his eyes and said, "People who only know how to enjoy cannot become stronger. Only by constantly experiencing battles and facing life and death can they break the barriers."
Li Mengzhou looked ahead and said, "I don't know whether you will face life and death, but I'm afraid I will often draw swords along the way."
......
......
Cangcheng.
He Zhengrong looked at the pair of eyes covered with gloomy eyes and said calmly: "Do you want to kill me?"
They had been staying in Cangcheng for several days. Before they were about to leave, He Zhengrong went to the market to purchase dry food. When he walked out, he unexpectedly met a disciple of Cangnan Mountain, Fang Changsheng, in a reasonable manner.
Fang Changsheng with only one ear.
Every time he saw He Zhengrong, Fang Changsheng would recall the shame of slashing his ears. Although it had been a long time since he went to the capital to attend the banquet, that kind of shame torture him every day and night.
Especially when they returned to Cangnan Mountain, the faint mocking eyes of the brothers of the mountain gate were like thorns deeply piercing into Fang Changsheng's heart. When the hatred that had been aggravated for a long time was at this moment, they had a vague tendency to be suppressed.
Because Cangnan Mountain did not dare to oppose Ligong Sword Court, the mountain gate chose to turn a blind eye to Ni Zhenchun's fall and his shame of slitting his ears. This was something that made Fang Changsheng extremely unwilling to accept it.
He didn't think Ligong Sword Court is so great. Cangnan Mountain is now a fifth-level sect, so why should he be afraid of a group of sword cultivators?
He couldn't understand this.
After this period of hard practice, he has reached the peak of the three realms, with the purpose of avenging He Zhengrong. In fact, when these people from Ligong Sword Courtyard just arrived in Cangcheng, Fang Changsheng had noticed it, but because they were together most of the time, even if they were separated, there was Jiang Zihua by He Zhengrong. Fang Changsheng had been patient. Now that he finally found He Zhengrong alone, he couldn't help but jump out.
"You killed Senior Brother Ni Zhenchun, and now you dare to walk in Cangcheng with a swagger. He Zhengrong, you are really brave."
He Zhengrong said with a calm expression: "So what? When I killed Ni Zhenchun, it should be in the late spring. Since there is no movement in Cangnan Mountain, just keep it. The weak choose to remain silent, so don't try to be tougher, because the consequences of doing so may be something you can't bear."
Fang Changsheng gritted his teeth and said, "He Zhengrong, you have to figure out one thing. This is Cangcheng, the territory of my Cangnan Mountain! Don't be too arrogant!"
He Zhengrong said disdainfully: "I have the capital to be arrogant, but it's a pity that you don't have it, so you can only bear it obediently."
He Zhengrong's arrogance is as always, just as his age. When he was arrogant, he had no scruples at all.
This is what the so-called childish words mean, but He Zhengrong obviously did it very deliberately.
Fang Changsheng said with a gloomy face and sternly: "I am no longer the time I was in the capital. He Zhengrong, the hatred of cutting his ears is irreconcilable. Today I will cut off your two ears here!"
He Zhengrong took out his ears and said, "You are very confident, but the result is destined to be very unbearable. I advise you to think more, otherwise once my sword is unsheathed, there will be no room for maneuver."
Fang Changsheng snorted coldly: "You are the one who is truly blind and confident. He Zhengrong, you are such an extremely bad guy. If you hadn't climbed to the high mountain of the Sword Academy, with your personality, you would have long known where the bones were buried."
He Zhengrong is best at offending people because he has no worries. If he weren't a sword cultivator or a disciple of the Sword Academy, he might have been miserable. But he leaned against Ligong Sword Academy and had a teacher who protects his calf and a bunch of senior brothers who protects his calf. Why should he shrink back?
This is something that cannot be found to reason.
The Jiang Kingdom prohibits practitioners from fighting in towns with people. The standard is relatively large-scale destruction. No one cares about ordinary competitions, unless they are forced to obtain permission to fight, such as if there are people outside the mountain, or if evil cultivators have conspiracies against towns, then practitioners can solve the problem on the spot.
He Zhengrong and Fang Changsheng did not take action directly on the street outside the market, but went straight out of the city.
When they met on a narrow road, Ouyang Shengxue and others gathered together in an inn in Cangcheng to discuss the way forward.
"After Junior Brother He purchased the dry food, we kept walking along this road. There were other teams searching the nearby routes. We didn't need to go any further, but we also needed to stop for a while in these nearby towns to ensure that everything was foolproof."
Jiang Zihua said hesitantly at this moment: "Cangnan Mountain is a newly promoted Five Realms Sect. According to principles, it should also participate in this action, but according to the observations over the past few days, Cangnan Mountain seems to have no action."
The departure time of each team is inconsistent, and if there are disciples sent down the mountain in Cangnan Mountain, there will definitely be traces to follow. However, from the time of departure, there has been no movement in Cangnan Mountain. Even if you set off late, it will not be the case.
Ouyang Shengxue thought for a while and said, "Although the matter in Cangnan Mountain has nothing to do with us, since it is a unified action and is only a different route. We should indeed go to Cangnan Mountain to ask about the situation."
Ye Jinyu and the others had no objection, only Jiang Zihua seemed to be worried.
"What are you thinking?" Ye Jinyu noticed something was wrong with Jiang Zi's painting.
Jiang Zihua finally took a deep breath and said, "There is one thing I think I should say."
Ouyang Shengxue looked at Jiang Zihua with some confusion.
"Junior Brother He once killed Ni Zhenchun, a disciple of Cangnan Mountain outside the city after the Panlong Banquet. They were childhood friends, but their relationship was very bad. Junior Brother He's original intention was to cut off his mind, but we are standing in the territory of Cangnan Mountain now. I can't guarantee whether they will do anything to Junior Brother He."
Ouyang Shengxue frowned and said, "The Panlong Banquet was held at the end of spring, and it has been several months since then. If Cangnan Mountain had taken action, it would have been there long ago, and it is related to the task of killing outsiders in the mountain. Cangnan Mountain will not cause trouble in this situation. Don't maliciously speculate on the intentions of others."
According to common sense, since Cangnan Mountain has no movement, it is impossible to suddenly take action again at this time, because even if Cangnan Mountain is just temporarily compromised and has a plan in secret, now is not the best time. Instead, it should be the worst. As long as Cangnan Mountain is not full of idiots, it is impossible to do whatever you want.
This is just a possibility that Jiang Zihua guessed. He couldn't just go directly to trouble Cangnan Mountain, at least Ouyang Shengxue couldn't do it.
Ye Jinyu said thoughtfully: "Although the possibility of such a thing happening is indeed very small, we must not be careful. It is inevitable to take a trip to Cangnan Mountain."
Ouyang Shengxue was silent for a moment and said, "You are waiting for Junior Brother He here, I will go to Cangnan Mountain in person."
......
In the mountains outside Cangcheng.
He Zhengrong's slightly closed eyes slowly opened.
He held the big stone sword in his hand.
Looking at Fang Changsheng, he whispered: "Your relationship with Ni Zhenchun seems to be very good. Although I don't know if you are using this matter as a guise, I will never regret killing Ni Zhenchun, nor will I regret cutting off one of your ears."
The mountains and forests are very quiet, only the sound of the wind blowing branches and leaves.
The hot sunlight fell, and the ground was baked a little hot.
The slight wind was also a boiling heat wave, but Fang Changsheng felt a hint of chill.
He subconsciously touched his disappearing right ear, and the shameful scene of his ear being cut off appeared in front of him again. He stared at He Zhengrong viciously and said sternly: "Today, either you die or I die!"
He was gradually lost in anger because He Zhengrong's extremely plain face seemed to be another humiliation to him, and he was extremely crazy.
He held the sword and slashed towards He Zhengrong.
The wind of heat waves swept through.
He Zhengrong's expression was still calm. He grinned and said sarcastically: "Ni Zhenchun was killed by my sword, and what is you, Fang Changsheng? Even if you have already broken through to the peak of the third realm, don't forget that I am a sword cultivator!"
"You draw your sword against me is the biggest mistake you have made!"
The big stone sword escaped from the scabbard, and the sound of the sword gradually became clear. Suddenly, kingfishers were singing in the mountains and forests. The strong wind blew, the earth and rocks exploded, and the sword intent of the big stone emerged wildly, and the smoke in the sky swept across the entire mountain forest in an instant.
