C170 Zhuozhou's Xue Kang

Duan Tianya weighed a gold ingot in his hand and said casually, "Let's forget about the competition. We can have a drink. "

Duan Tianya distributed some silver to the people around him and went to a tavern with Xue Kang. Xue Kang was a little confused about his every move, so he asked, "Why do you have to disperse such a big show?"

Duan Tianya replied, "I just want to show off for once. Now it seems that I am not suitable for it. "

Xue Kang smiled and said, "You still want to say that? What a strange person. "

The two of them chatted happily. It turned out that Xue Kang was really a person from Zhuozhou. He had been practicing martial arts since he was young and had practiced a good sword technique. Unfortunately, he had never been able to put it to use. He could only walk around with his sword in hand, hoping to compete with the current experts.

In fact, there were many people like Xue Kang. There were so many that they could easily find one on the main road. However, Xue Kang was different. He was different from the others who pursued him. He only wanted to be a pure swordsman, just like Hu Liang, who only wanted to live for the sword in his hand. In his eyes, he was more like Dugu Nan.

However, when everyone was pursuing something, they would always encounter this kind of difficulty. Of course, Xue Kang was no exception. His problem was how to live or how to adapt to the martial world. He wanted to fill his stomach. Obviously, Xue Kang was still a layman in this regard. It wasn't that he didn't want to try to change, it was just that he didn't know how.

Both of them drank very late and did not have any intention of getting drunk. Xue Kang's alcohol tolerance was rarely good. However, he wasn't a person who often drank. Moreover, he drank very directly. There was no need for you to say anything, he would continue drinking by himself. In this aspect, he was very similar to the dead Hu Meng.

When they drank until the store closed, the two of them had no choice but to find a place to sleep. Xue Kang suggested sleeping in a shabby temple, but Duan Tianya said, "It's not like we don't have silver taels. Why are we sleeping on the streets?"

Just as they were looking for an inn, a masked man in black suddenly jumped out. Without saying his name, he went forward and stabbed at Duan Tianya. Xue Kang drew his iron sword to meet the attack. The two swords waved in the night sky, and for a moment, they were locked in a fierce fight.

Xue Kang's sword was fast, but his opponent's sword technique was not weak at all. After thirty exchanges, Duan Tianya had already guessed who this masked man was.

Of course, he wasn't anyone else. He was the Ten Directions Sword. The current Dugu Qingping. He had never thought that his sword technique would improve so quickly. It seemed like during this period of time. . . Dugu Nan had played a great role in his training. However, he didn't expect Xue Kang's sword art to be so good. Compared to Dugu Qingping, who was slightly famous in the martial arts world, Xue Kang's sword technique wasn't any weaker. If they had to compare, Xue Kang's sword technique should not be any weaker than Changqing's.

Duan Tianya raised his hand and stopped him. "Stop! There was no need to fight anymore, Dugu Qingping. I know it's you. "

Since his identity had already been exposed, Dugu Qingping could only take off his mask and said," You really have good eyesight. Just the few moves I used can tell that my father was right. "

Duan Tianya smiled and said, "Why are you here?"

Dugu Qingping said with an expressionless face, "I am here to kill you!"

"Come and kill me? But you know, with your current sword technique, you can't kill me at all!"

Dugu Qingping replied, "I know. My dad said that I will never be a match for you in this lifetime. "

Duan Tianya said, "If that's the case, why waste your energy?"

Dugu Qingping said. "I just want to see how much is missing. "

Duan Tianya said, "What is the result?"

Dugu Qingping said. "I can't even defeat this friend in front of me. "

Duan Tianya smiled and said, "This friend of mine is very outstanding. Since we can meet here, why don't we have another drink?"

Dugu Qingping refused. "It's better for me to go back as soon as possible. Otherwise, I will be scolded by dad. "

Duan Tianya didn't try to persuade him to stay. Dugu Qingping leapt forward and disappeared into the night.

Just as Duan Tianya was about to leave, he was stopped by Xue Kang's sword. Duan Tianya smiled and said, "What is the meaning of this?"

Xue Kang said, "Why don't we have a competition here and let me see your sword technique. "

Duan Tianya smiled and said, "What's there to compete about? In a few days. I might be a dead man. "

Xue Kang was puzzled and asked, "Why would you say that?"

Duan Tianya said, "I want to fight with the father of that person just now. "

"His father is very powerful?"

Duan Tianya said with a smile, "First in the world!"

Xue Kang was shocked and said, "Dugu Nan?"

Duan Tianya laughed and said, "I didn't expect you to know Dugu Nan. That's right, Dugu Nan. "

Xue Kang asked, "Who exactly are you? Why would you fight with Dugu Nan?"

Duan Tianya said, "Dugu Nan is a swordsman who does not reject anyone. As long as you use your sword to fight with him, he will fulfill all your requests. He will never reject anyone. "

Xue Kang was stunned for a moment, then he waved his sword and said, "I can't miss this opportunity. How about this? If I win, you will be my follower. If I lose, I will be willing to be your follower. "

Duan Tianya smiled and said, "I am a dying man. Why would I need a follower?"

Xue Kang said, "Collect the corpse!"

Duan Tianya suddenly laughed and said, "This is a good excuse. I like it. Anyway, it is not a bad thing to have someone drinking with me these days. Let me have a taste of your sword skills. " As he spoke, he drew his long sword and fought with Xue Kang.

In the blink of an eye, the two had exchanged thirty moves. Xue Kang praised, "Good sword skills. It really broadened my horizons. "

Duan Tianya smiled and said, "The good show is still coming!" As he spoke, he quickly moved forward a few steps and thrust his sword forward. Xue Kang waved his sword to meet the attack. Although his sword was very fast, it was half a step slower than Duan Tianya's sword. As a result, after seven sword attacks, he could not see any trace of Duan Tianya.

At this moment, he only felt a cold sensation on his neck. He turned around and saw that Duan Tianya had already run behind him. The sword in his hand was already placed on his neck. Xue Kang looked at the broken sword and sighed. "I lost. From now on, I am willing to be at your service. Life and death will follow you. "

Duan Tianya smiled and said, "No need. I am still better than myself!"

Xue Kang said, "This is what I am willing to do. Firstly, I want to learn sword skills from you, and secondly, I want to make a living for myself. "

Duan Tianya heard him and said, "That's good too. It's also good to have someone like you who has good sword skills and alcohol tolerance to drink with me. "

The two of them found an inn to stay in and prepared to rush to Tianya Wine House the next day. They would stay in Tianya Wine House for a few days and the day of the decisive battle with Dugu Nan would soon come.

The two of them rode their horses to Tianya Wine House, but they saw Changqing leading the servants of Yuen's Mansion to buy wine. When they entered the room, they saw the Lady Boss enthusiastically calling out to Changqing.

When Changqing saw Duan Tianya, he was overjoyed and said: "Brother! I didn't expect to meet you here. "
