C118 Lost Letter of Challenge
They're arguing over who's going to take the lead, and there's no end to it, so we'll just have to think about it.
Just as Yuen Xiaotian and the others were discussing the martial arts competition with Dugu Nan again, they realized that the invitation to the martial arts competition had disappeared. After a round of questioning, no one discovered where the invitation had gone.
After asking around in Yuen's Mansion, Duan Tianya did not find anything. He said, "Could it be that this invitation has run away?"
Yuen Xiaotian said, "Since we can't find it, then forget it. If we want to find Dugu Nan for a martial arts competition, it will be the same if there is a thread. "
Since he couldn't find it, he might as well not find it. But that night, Yuen Xiaotian suddenly thought of someone who might have stolen the thread. That person was the mad Daoist.
When Yuen Xiaotian thought of this, he couldn't help but feel anxious. He found Tang Wuhua and the others and rushed to the cave where the Crazy Daoist lived.
When he arrived at the cave, there was no one inside. The broken altar and jars were scattered all over the ground. Many sword techniques were engraved on the walls.
Yuen Xiaotian and the others looked around and found a letter on the stone table. Yuen Xiaotian opened the letter. He read under the light of the torch, "Since I retired, I will follow your name. It has been dozens of years since I did anything wrong in the martial arts world. In fact, I've always felt depressed in my heart, afraid of dying one day. . . However, I still feel regret. "
Yuen Xiaotian flipped through the letter. "I have spent most of my life, and I am afraid that I will not have much time left. If I cannot fulfill my wish, I am worried that I will die with everlasting regret. Coincidentally, Dugu Nan came out of the martial world once again. It was a pity that I did not have the chance to experience it with many experts in the past. Now that I have this opportunity, I will take the letter of challenge away. If I can return from the Yellow Lawn three days later, everyone will be happy. If I can't return, my junior disciple can't be sad either. Kong Mingzi presented it. "
After reading the letter, Yuen Xiaotian thought to himself, "It's not good!"
Although Crazy Daoist's swordsmanship was not bad, it was hard to tell who was better in a short period of time. The difference between the two was just that they could kill Mo Tianweng by themselves. He could hurt Yanyun again. Such a sword technique. . . Even if Crazy Daoist went now, he wouldn't be able to gain any advantages.
Yuen Xiaotian hurriedly returned to Yuen's Mansion with the others. He planned to pack up and go to Yellow Lawn, but once he returned to Yuen's Mansion, the housekeeper came forward and said with a low voice, "Someone sent a letter. "
Yuen Xiaotian hurriedly opened the letter and read it. It wrote, "Across the Pugilistic World, there are not many people who can compete with me, Dugu Nan. Tell me, how many peerless experts are there in the Pugilistic World? I will be waiting for all of you in Yellow Lawn! Dugu Nan presented it to me. "
After putting down the letter, Yuen Xiaotian called the butler to prepare the horse. Tang Wuhua and Duan Tianya also hurried over.
Yellow Lawn was more than a hundred miles away from Yuen's Mansion. On the east side of a dense forest, there were warm flowers blooming in the spring. It was green and full of life. It was only because there was a wild grass full of yellow flowers that it got its name. The scenery was beautiful, and the scenery was pleasant.
When they arrived at the Yellow Lawn, they found that this place was more than a mile in circumference, and it was spacious and flat. On the southern side of the Yellow Lawn, there was a thatched hut. It should be Dugu Nan's residence.
When they pushed open the thatched hut, there was no one inside. The three of them walked out of the thatched hut and found a treasured sword inserted into the ground, swaying along with the spring breeze.
Walking closer, they found a person lying on the side of the treasured sword. It was Crazy Daoist.
Crazy Daoist no longer had any breath. He had been stabbed in the chest and died. Looking at his quiet face, he walked very peacefully.
Yuen Xiaotian pulled out the sword and handed it to Tang Wuhua. Then, he bent down and picked Crazy Daoist up. He placed him on the horse's back. Without saying a word, he led the horse and left.
Yuen Xiaotian didn't bury Crazy Daoist in Yuen's Mansion. Instead, he sent him back to his sect. He placed his memorial tablet next to his master, Kong Lingzi, and greeted his fellow disciples and seniors one by one.
Yuen Xiaotian stayed in the sect for a few days. Then, he immediately set off and returned to Yuen's Mansion.
Halfway there, he found an old man blocking his path. The old man was holding a sword with a scar on his face.
Yuen Xiaotian asked, "Who are you? Why are you blocking my path?"
The old man said, "I am Dugu Nan. Are you Yuen Xiaotian?"
Yuen Xiaotian was shocked. "You are Dugu Nan!"
Dugu Nan said proudly. "Yes, I am Dugu Nan. It seems that you are Yuen Xiaotian. "
Yuen Xiaotian said, "That's right. I am Yuen Xiaotian. If you want to compete in martial arts, I will be waiting for you. "
Dugu Nan nodded his head in satisfaction and said, "Not bad, you are indeed the Dragon-scale Sword Yuen Xiaotian. You have not changed much these years!"
Yuen Xiaotian said, "That's right. I haven't changed much, but you have changed too much. "
Dugu Nan disapproved and said, "It's nothing. It's just a skin bag. It doesn't matter what it looks like, as long as it can still hold a sword. "
Yuen Xiaotian asked, "Did you kill me, martial uncle?"
Dugu Nan said, "Are you talking about Crazy Daoist?"
Yuen Xiaotian said, "Yes!"
Dugu Nan praised, "He is indeed worthy of being called an expert. I, Dugu Nan, do not admire many people. He is definitely one of them. "
Yuen Xiaotian said, "This is a very high praise. "
Dugu Nan said, "Of course! He has both sword skills that I admire and moral principles that I admire. Just based on these, I have to use all my strength to respond, or else I will fail to live up to his appreciation and mine. "
Yuen Xiaotian asked, "You were the one who stabbed his sword into the ground?"
Dugu Nan nodded. "Only people worthy of my respect would do that. "
Yuen Xiaotian asked again, "Then did you come here specially to wait for me?"
Dugu Nan said. "Yes. In the martial arts world, those few people who can still take action, besides Tang Wuhua, Duan Suiliang, and the little devil of Hu Liang family, are also your Dragon-scale Sword. "
Dugu Nan continued, "Tang Wuhua found out that he is in your residence. So, you found him. Duan Suiliang took over Chu Bai's Seventeen Gangs. I can't do anything to him because of Chu Bai's relationship with him. That brat and I made a final promise. I won't fight him until the end. Looking at it now, You and Tang Wuhua are my next target. "
Yuen Xiaotian listened and said, "Alright, let me experience your sword technique now!"
Dugu Nan waved his hand and said, "Now is not the time. Go back to Yuen's Mansion and prepare. I still need to go somewhere else to do some things. "
Yuen Xiaotian said, "Then tell me the time. "
Dugu Nan thought for a moment and said, "We will use a month. What do you think?"
Yuen Xiaotian cupped his fists and said, "Alright. We will meet in Yellow Lawn in a month. "
Dugu Nan said, "When the time comes, bring your men along with Tang Wuhua and that little devil. "
Yuen Xiaotian said with a smile. "Aren't you afraid that Tang Wuhua and I will join hands to defeat you?"
Dugu Nan said, "If you and Tang Wuhua join hands, I have no chance of winning, but I believe that you and him will not join hands. "
Yuen Xiaotian said, "Are you that confident?"
Dugu Nan smiled and said, " If Tang Wuhua and Yuen Xiaotian joined hands, then the two of you would not be Dragon-scale Swords and Phoenix-tail Swords. "
