The Lord who use immortals as food

Chapter 419: Living on the Top of the Waves (Part 1)

As soon as Mao Shi arrived, the Jade Sword Stage was already crowded with people.

Compared with yesterday, the crowd was more orderly, and thoroughfares in all directions were cleared; the scene was also more solemn, because this was no longer a selection for the world, but truly on the stage, in the national newspaper and in countless official documents. The statement above stated that the Shaolong Book Revision Conference will open today.

Countless luxurious carriages and horses lined the roadside, stretching for an unknown distance. Dignitaries, officials, and celebrities sat down and talked on the specially designed viewing platform. In the middle of everything, a long and wide avenue leads directly to the Jade Sword Platform. Occasionally, some people in purple clothes and swords walk from here to the platform.

The crowd was like a sea, with Jianghu disciples and good people mingling among each other. The local people pointed and discussed when the officials passed by, while the Jianghu people pointed and talked freely when the swordsmen entered.

The document submitted by the Sui Dynasty for the Sword Selection Meeting is in line with the current tendency of the Tang Dynasty to integrate the rivers and lakes rather than control them: "The imperial court is based on the common people, and the rivers and lakes originate from the common people. When the court and the rivers and lakes are in chaos, see They will repel each other, but if we use the people as a bridge, everything can be accomplished.”

In this crowded environment, the two groups chatted together easily. The common people asked the Jianghu guests various questions freshly and curiously. The Jianghu individuals and sect disciples also suddenly discovered that even if they did not get on the stage, they would still be there. Can get so much attention and eyes. All of them straightened their backs, and for a moment they felt that the sword at their waist was their own face.

Almost all the storytellers in the city came here to set up stalls. There was a small platform not far away among the crowd. They sat on it and talked about the talented swordsmen of this sword competition. Some contestants were originally Already famous, their stories are especially popular.

The huge golden banner announced yesterday still hangs on the outer wall of the Jade Sword Platform, and every name on it is clearly visible under the sunlight.

The procedures for revising the register have been published and circulated without any cover-up:

Using this golden scroll as a basis, the names were discussed from bottom to top, one by one, until the people on the Jade Sword Platform reached an agreement. If there is any difficulty, the two swordsmen will immediately fly down from the jade sword platform and compete on the central sword platform where everyone is watching.

On the other half of the outer wall, another blank light black strip of the same size and shape has been hung down, and the agreed rankings will be written on it one by one with a gold pen. After the end, there is also the final step of re-evaluating the rankings based on the performance of the swordsmen behind.

In short, what the compilation of the Shaolong Golden Book requires is that "every name should be given in front of everyone; every change should be clear and coherent", so that after the book is completed, everyone will be convinced and unquestionable.

However, this request is actually being questioned like never before, because under the bright sunlight and the gaze of countless people, the name ranked first becomes more and more eye-catching.

Pei liquid.

After being circulated all night, these two words caused more and more people to be shocked and confused.

It's so abrupt and tough, and whether it's "watching the heroes" or "appearing before the album is finished the next day", it all has a very unusual meaning - as if he is one level above everyone else, almost arrogant.

People were digging around for information about this name, but in the end, only one theory was widely confirmed - this person seemed to come from Fenghuai, a small county in the mountains in the north, and was the leader of Qiubi in Bowang Prefecture this year.

"I was competing in Bowang Prefecture at that time. He was really powerful. He easily defeated a Liusheng's Yi Sword in the Quizai competition, and then he could also use his own Yi Sword."

This is the news sold by Du Wuniang. It was collected from a Bowang martial artist, but later he added: "But that Pei Ye is the fourth life, and I don't know if this sixth life is the same person."

Wubi Qiukui from a remote state? Crossing two realms in twenty days?

There were no accurate words to say, because no one had seen this person, and no one knew where he was now. When he asked the Bowang warrior what he looked like, the warrior's answer was also recorded in the intelligence: "Wearing a blue suit, long and long He looks like a seventeen-year-old boy."

Unless the person does not change clothes for twenty days.

Although the discussion is getting more and more intense, the registration meeting is still proceeding normally.

The swordsmen stepped onto the Jade Sword Platform one by one, and countless eyes were fixed on these geniuses who were awarded the Golden Book. It is conceivable that in the next month or two, their names will be spread throughout Shaolong.

————

Pei Ye was wearing blue clothes.

When I walked over, I was a little surprised that this place was completely different from the boiling Jianghu gas yesterday. There were more people, more officials, and order was better.

When he got up this morning, there were soldiers waiting outside. The carriages and horses were ready when he went downstairs. But when he got here, he did not go to the attic again. Qu Xin looked at him doubtfully, and Pei Ye waved his hand: "You have good eyesight. you go."

In fact, he wanted to get into the jubilant atmosphere and chat with the people around him - to watch the excitement, he had to chat and watch at the same time, and Qu Xin was obviously not a very good chat partner.

Gao Feigong was still following him secretly, while Pei Ye walked forward with the black cat on his shoulders, looking around for his position amidst the chaos of voices.

However, he arrived late, and there were almost no seats left. Just as he was considering jumping to the eaves, a voice suddenly sounded from the side: "Well, don't you have a seat? Why don't you sit here?"

When Pei Ye turned his head, he saw a blue and white sword uniform, but it was Feiyan Sword Sect and his party.

They still occupied the same seats as yesterday, and the girl was looking at him hesitantly, and there happened to be an empty seat next to her.

"Ah, thank you, thank you." Pei Ye quickly came over gratefully. This place is really good, with sunshade and a wide view. There is also a storyteller not far or near.

Feiyan Jianmen's uniforms are neat and elegant, and her temperament is outstanding. No one around her comes to crowd her.

"What a coincidence, we meet again." Pei Ye sat down with a smile, "Yesterday I saw two senior brothers from your sect got the sword list, congratulations."

Ren Zixin smiled when he heard this, but said nothing. He raised his chin and gestured towards the long street.

Pei Ye turned around and saw a blue and white figure walking down the main road. He had a serious and upright face, clean clothes, neat hair, and calm manner. He held a sword in one hand and was talking humbly to an official in blue. Go away from the Jade Sword Platform.

The storyteller behind him said with a smile: "This young master with a beautiful tree in the wind is the true biography of Zhu Wenyuan of the Feiyan Sword Sect of the 'Seven Swords of Longxi'. He has fifty-one swords and is known as [Sword Jie Feng Yu]. If anyone was there yesterday When you look at the swordsmanship in the first round, you should remember that the exquisite "Black Sword" in his hand ranks among the top ten in this round. He defeated four people in a row in the first round, and then only lost to one person."

"Su Xingke!"

"Not bad!" the storyteller said while stroking his beard, "We only lost to Su Xingke, who is currently ranked fourth among swordsmen, [Dragon Jaw Pearl Retrieval]!"

Everyone was amazed, and Pei Ye heard someone whispering curiously next to him: "Ah, it seems to be the doorman of this restaurant."

Ren Zixin raised his head slightly and said with a reserved smile: "It's a pity that we still failed to rank within fifty. Junior Brother Qi Zhi and I have never beaten anyone else."

Pei Ye clapped his hands and praised: "It's already great - it was so unlucky to meet Su Xingke in the last game."

"That's right!!" Ren Zixin suddenly felt that this strange boy was a lot more friendly, "I don't know how it was arranged. Isn't this just sending senior brother up to lose!"

Pei Ye thought that this might be Mr. Sui's decision and nodded in agreement.

After all, I'm sitting in someone else's seat.

After Ren Zixin finished the accusation, she felt a lot more relaxed: "Well, are you here to compete too?"

"Ah, no."

".profound."

At this moment, the crowd around him suddenly burst into loud cheers. Many people stood up directly. The storyteller also said with a smile: "Here we come."

Pei Ye looked curiously and saw three almost identical cyan carriages and horses parked at the end. Nanguan Nu, a man in a black skirt and a neat bun, was coming down from the top. She was like an orchid and her sword was like a flower vine.

The storyteller said in a long voice: "'The blue and white carriage, the horse riding on the snow, the sword withered nine hundred and seventy-two, and the peach grove has been repeated without a single flower.' This is the legendary Luoying Mountain True Story, [Sleeping Flowers and Counting Butterflies] - -Nan Guannu! The sword ranked seventh in the golden book, temporarily surpassing the equally famous [Pearl Keeper] Qi Mengchen, but the conclusion is just a 'little doubt'. The two fairies will be in the book revision meeting today and tomorrow. Let’s really try the sword!”

The mood of the onlookers around him became obviously high, and they kept poking their heads in the crowd.

"Let me see, let me see!"

"That sword of hers is so beautiful!"

"Is it really that good-looking? I can't see her face clearly."

"You said that if they have trees growing in their stomachs, will their skin also become better?"

Pei Ye had met Nan Guannu several times before, and he didn't want to stare at her at that time. But now that everyone was crowded, he couldn't help but poke his head around, as if he wanted to see if there was anything new about this face. Variety.

"I got this position by sword, not by face, really." Ren Zixin muttered with some dissatisfaction, tilted her head and smiled, "You know, yesterday she met Senior Brother Qi Zhi to practice swordsmanship, and he gave him some pointers How many moves does he have - her sword is really incredible."

Pei Ye quickly moved his gaze to the Nanguan Slave Sword, as if he had never looked at his face, and turned back curiously: "How powerful is it?"

Ren Zixin glanced at the sword at his waist: "You also practice swordsmanship, so you should understand - she has been in the 'spiritual' realm for four years."

"Hmm! That's really awesome."

Ren Zixin sighed softly: "I also expected her to get fourth, but I didn't expect she was seventh."

Pei Ye consoled him, "The people in front are so awesome."

"That's right. That Su Xingke is so good, he is only ranked fourth."

At this time, this young man with astonishing talent was walking down the long street, and the crowd cheered. But today, he did not look around and smiled. He held his sword in his eyes and walked towards the Jade Sword Platform, as if there was something pressing on his head. .

Pei Ye nodded: "After all, they only showed up once. Maybe Cui Zijie and Xiang Zongyuan are better in terms of performance."

Then he asked curiously: "Who do you think is more powerful, Cui Zijie or Xiang Zongyuan?"

"What do you think?"

"I thought it was Cui Zijie. I heard they are five years apart."

Ren Zixin shook his head and said with a smile: "No! People in the world like to say that Cui Zhenzhuan is highly talented. This is true. However, when Young Master Xiang Zongyuan was eighteen years old, he was already in the Eighth Life Spiritual Realm. In recent years, it is said that he has followed The Patriarch devoted himself to studying the Book of Withered Flowers, and accumulated a lot of experience. Age cannot be used to judge sword skills. "

"Oh!" Pei Ye suddenly realized, "Then it seems that the revision meeting is quite thoughtful."

But Ren Zixin frowned and said, "But I don't know who that Pei Ye is."

"."

"Father said that there must be a reason for the people who are ranked in the registration meeting, but this person has never heard of it. How can he be better than so many outstanding talents?"

Someone nearby also echoed: "Yes, no matter how high your sword talent is, you still have to show your face like Mr. Su, right? Why do you have nothing and just use a name to get the first place?"

".It is indeed a bit difficult to convince the public."

"Right? What's more, he hasn't shown his face so far. In my opinion, he is either guilty of clinging to others, or he is arrogant and rude. In short, he is probably a shameless person."

"Ah?! That's not necessarily the case."

"Huh?" Ren Zixin frowned and tilted his head.

"Well, didn't the meeting say that he was seriously injured and hadn't recovered yet? I think it really hurts, and he may not be able to fight so many games, so he can only come to the scene to spar."

"That's a little possible." Ren Zixin reluctantly agreed, and tilted his head and said, "Oh, by the way, I haven't asked you, my name is Ren Zixin, what's your name?"

"." Pei Ye was stunned for a moment, "Ah, my name is... Zhang Siche!"

"Oh, nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you."

The time of Chen finally arrived. In the anticipation of countless people, the clear voice read a solemn "Preface to the Jade Sword Platform Record", and the discussion began with cheers.

The first item discussed was Cai Wuzhi, who was ranked 72nd. Even though the meeting gave him the evaluation of "No worries", and no one in the sword discussion meeting said that his ranking was inappropriate, he still challenged the 71st.

So the first sword fight of the record began, but it only took seven moves for Cai Wuzhi to be defeated by the opponent.

A clear voice spread throughout the venue: "First discussion: Cai Wuzhi, 72nd, 71st, finalized. All parties have no doubt, 72nd."

So this name emerged from the last column of the black background and was finalized.

Not many people laughed at him. Being the last one in "Wu Yu", he was still willing to fight forward. It was better than holding his face and reserve to be applauded. His master accepted this result without any worries, and the second discussion on swordsmanship began immediately.

Pei Ye sat among the people who were talking and laughing. The storyteller behind him was talking about each swordsman in reverse order. He looked up at the high jade sword platform. He could not see the figures on it, and he didn't know what they were talking about. He just suddenly began to look forward to the moment when the discussion reached the last few items.

Because the discussion about "Pei Ye" around him had never stopped.

The two words "Pei Ye" were still clearly hung in the first column of the golden painting. Whether it was questioning, curiosity, expectation, or ridicule, sarcasm, or even insults, in short, even if the discussion on swordsmanship had begun, this topic still firmly occupied every gap.

For the first time, Pei Ye felt so clearly that he had squeezed so many benefits, some of which did not even exist at all - one person said that if there was no Pei Ye who suddenly appeared, he might be the 72nd.

In short, he became the target of the most powerful light.

Pei Ye seemed to have not heard of it in the first hour, and even thought it was a bit fun, but as time went by, the topic still did not stop, and the boy could not help but start to feel a little depressed, especially when he realized that he was only among dozens of people and there were nearly 200,000 people here.

Are they all talking about "Pei Ye" like this?

Suddenly, he really wanted to win.

And in this discussion that never stopped, a shocking news began to spread at an unimaginable speed.

- At the time of Si, Shaolong Xianrentai announced the case of "Happy Death Guimian" to the world, reminding the whole world to be vigilant against this dangerous organization.

That horrific incident actually happened in Kongtong in September. Some details revealed between the lines shocked everyone. Among the many unimaginable and shocking names, the word "Pei Ye" appeared so clearly for the first time.
