C195 Half Moon Villa
There were two rows of sword-wielding disciples standing in front of the gate of the manor. Although the sun was shining high in the sky and it was extremely hot, soybean-sized beads of sweat dripped down from their cheeks. The two rows of people were standing straight.
Xuan Zhengchen stepped forward and said, "I, Xuan Zhengchen Nine Tribulations Sword Arts, have something to discuss with your family's Master. "
Unexpectedly, the disciples standing in front of the gate didn't buy it at all. One of the leading disciples said, "My family's Master is not something you can see whenever you want. "
Xuan Zhengchen touched the dust on his nose and was extremely angry. Just as he was about to get angry, he was stopped by Duan Tianya. Duan Tianya took out some silver from his pocket and greeted him with a smile. "We have important matters to discuss with your Master. I don't know what kind of rules you have, but I hope you can tell us. "
Xuan Zhengchen, who was standing at the side, stomped his feet in anger. He thought to himself, "I have a stomach full of anger, but you, Duan Tianya, are still so humble. " But thinking about it, he must have his reasons for doing so, so he could only remain silent with a red face.
He didn't expect this move to be effective. The leading disciple weighed the silver taels in his hand, and a smile appeared on his face. He suddenly said with a serious expression, "It's not impossible to see my Master. It's just that my family's Master doesn't like to see outsiders. If you want to meet me, you can do so with your abilities. "
Duan Tianya took out some silver from his pocket and handed it to the leading disciple. He asked, "What ability do you have?"
The leading disciple said. " As long as everyone passes the Four Sword Formation, no matter if you are a robber who kills and arson, or a criminal who has committed heinous crimes, you will be able to see my Master. "
Duan Tianya cupped his fists and said, "Then I will have to trouble brother to lead the way. "
The leading disciple returned the salute. "It seems that you are quite sensible. Let me give you a piece of advice. As the name implies, the Four Sword Formation has four swords. In other words, one against four. Moreover, these four people are experts of my Zhuang Family. You have to take care of yourself. "
Duan Tianya said with a smile, "I don't mind if I don't see your family's Master. It's just that this Hero Xuan is in a hurry to request an audience. "
The disciple went in to pass the message. After a short while, the door of the Half-moon Manor opened and two groups of people rushed out from inside. A middle-aged man walked out, followed by four swordsmen. As expected, these four people were the swordsmen in charge of the Four Sword Formation.
Who was this person in front of them? Because Half-moon Manor rarely interacted with others, many people in the Jianghu didn't know much about the situation in the manor. Perhaps it was because Duan Tianya was generous that he was a good person. The leading disciple walked up to him and said in a low voice, "The one in front is our Martial Uncle. He is also the elder brother of our Master, named Yang Yundong. The four people behind him are the swordsmen of the Four Sword Formation. "
Duan Tianya smiled and felt that the silver was not wasted. He nodded to the leading disciple to express his gratitude.
Yang Yundong called out to the left and right, and said to Duan Tianya and the others, "I have heard of the name of the Nine Tribulations Sword Arts, but I don't know if it is true or not. Everyone here can be counted as one. Anyone who can pass the Four Sword Formation can come to the manor and have a chat. I'm sorry for not being able to pass. I can only wait outside the manor. "
The words were hard to hear, but they were also reasonable. Duan Tianya smiled and said to Xuan Zhengchen, "Hero Xuan, please calm down. I will take the lead for all of you. " As he spoke, he threw the Dragon-scale Sword to Xue Kang and drew his sword. "Please!"
The four swordsmen behind Yang Yundong surrounded Duan Tianya. Suddenly, Duan Tianya cupped his fists at the door of the manor and said, "Yang Master, excuse me. "
The four of them were startled. Just when they were being careless, Duan Tianya placed his sword on one of the men's neck. He smiled at Yang Yundong and said: "I wonder if this is counted as a win?"
Yang Yundong was stunned for a moment, then he couldn't help but smile and said, "You win for the time being. "
The four swordsmen felt that they had lost all their face and wanted to compete again. Yang Yundong waved his hand and said, "This young hero is really good. Even if he doesn't use this trick, you are still not his match. "
Seeing this scene, everyone was a little surprised. Xiao Chen and Hou Jian looked at each other, while Xu Xiaomei said to Meng Chong with a sarcastic tone, "Is this the person you said is more powerful than my brother?"
Meng Chong smiled. "Do you think you can put your sword on one of their necks in an instant?"
Xu Xiaomei blinked her big eyes and did not ask for trouble again.
At this time, Xue Kang pulled out his iron sword and stepped forward. He said, "I am not talented. I also want to experience your family's Four Sword Formation. "
When the two sides exchanged blows, only then did everyone know. The Four Sword Formation was not as simple as it sounded. The four of them were skilled in sword techniques, their footwork was nimble, and they had a tacit understanding with each other. For a moment, they really broke out in a cold sweat for Xue Kang.
However, Xue Kang from Zhuozhou was not an ordinary person. His iron sword danced up and down, and even Yang Yundong, who was watching the battle, couldn't help but nod and praise him.
After seventy moves, Xue Kang was surrounded by four people. He thrust his sword forward, and suddenly, he swung out three more times. This sword attack was as fast as the wind. The four of them couldn't dodge it in time, and their swords were knocked out.
Their skills were not as good as their opponent's, so they had nothing to say. The four of them picked up the sword on the ground and returned to their original position. Yang Yundong couldn't help but say to Xue Kang, "What a young hero. I didn't expect to meet such a skilled junior today. "
Xue Kang cupped his fists and didn't say anything. Xiao Chen, Hou Jian, and Xuan Zhengchen passed the test smoothly. When he asked Meng Chong, he used Xu Xiaomei as an excuse to refuse the competition. Tieniu also wanted to go in. However, he was afraid that he would be able to break the Four Sword Formation. Therefore, Meng Chong lied to him that there was no meat in the village, so he left him outside.
Duan Tianya and the other three followed Yang Yundong into the manor. They found that it was exactly the same as what they saw outside the manor. The house was taller than other places, the pavilion was bigger than other places, and even the road was wider than other places. Duan Tianya could not help but tease, "Yang Master must be a broad-minded and fat person. "
When Yang Yundong heard this, he couldn't help but ask, "What do you mean?"
Duan Tianya smiled and said, "Everything here is bigger than other places. Isn't that so?"
Yang Yundong understood what he meant and couldn't help but laugh, "This brother of mine has a good figure and appearance. Everything here is because of his personal hobby. "
"You too?"
Yang Yundong thought for a moment before replying, "The so-called nine sons of a dragon are different. I only admire capable people. If you all can't pass the Four Sword Formation, you won't even have the right to speak to me. "
As they spoke, they arrived at the tallest courtyard. On it was written the words' Half Moon Residence ', Duan Tianya. He looked at the three words and asked. "This is the residence of Yang Master?"
Yang Yundong didn't say anything. He led the five of them to the main hall. In the main hall, a person was standing in front of a desk. Beside him was a servant who was studying ink, and there was also a young man standing beside him.
This person wrote two big words on a piece of paper. After drying it, he hung it on the wall. The words "Jianghu were written on the paper. He did not care about Duan Tianya and the others. Instead, it was Yang Yundong who said, Yun Jing, someone is coming. "
So this person was the Master of Half-moon Manor, Yang Yunjing.
