Looking to the Thirteen Rivers

Xu Lianzhi ordered someone to fetch the hemp rope, and made a circle around the platform that could accommodate four people standing.

The rope circle was not too big, but it also gave the four of them a relatively good range to display their skills. After a while, several disciples lifted a flag pole and fixed it in the center of the rope circle.

There are wooden wedges embedded in the top of the pillar, which can be stepped on and climbed. On the top of the pillar is tied a dark red banner painted with gold. Whoever can pull out the banner first will be the No.1 of this meeting. .

Correspondingly, whoever is kicked out of the circle first, even if the toe of the shoe is stepped out for a little bit, is considered a loser, and during the competition, the flag post cannot fall. Once it falls, it means that all four of them If you fail to win, you have to start all over again.

Therefore, they not only have to concentrate on the competition, but also have to work together to maintain the banner. The test is not only the ability to fight alone, but also whether they know how to cooperate with each other.

Even though Yin Qiu performed extremely well in the few competitions after the injury, and regained the impression of many old disciples on her, Xie Yijun still had a cold face, and the anger in his heart was still lingering.

And Man Jiangxue didn't speak to her after returning to the stands. The two seemed to be angry, and neither of them wanted to speak first.

The two started a cold war out of nowhere, and the subtle atmosphere made the elders around them feel confused. For a while, the disciples from all the peaks in the stands did not dare to cheer anymore, and they all behaved dignifiedly and calmly, for fear that a Unfortunately, I touched the bad luck of these two.

After setting up the sword discussion platform, several disciples retreated Shi Shiran, and Xu Lianzhi explained as usual: "Use the rope circle as the range, the four of you will fight at the same time, the one who wins the banner wins, and the one who goes out of the bounds is automatically considered defeated. Still the same sentence, don't use ultimate moves, don't hurt people maliciously, remember to stop, you guys, join the circle!"

After speaking, I saw four girls of similar ages set off and fall into the arena, each standing on one side.

Knowing that Yin Qiu and Fu Xiangsu are on good terms, the two of them will join forces to attack, so the other two female disciples have discussed the countermeasures in advance and decided to temporarily form a team to deal with these two.

In their eyes, Yin Qiu was already injured, and after so many fights, no matter how powerful he is, he may be at the end of his battle at the moment. As long as they get rid of Yin Qiu first, they can fight Fu Xiang two-for-one. If they were older, even if Fu Xiang could win them one against two, they would be able to securely enter the top three without losing anything.

So as soon as the drum sounded, the two female disciples went straight to Yin Qiu with a clear goal, and they didn't fight Fu Xiang at all. Yin Qiu and Fu Xiang had already guessed that they would have such a plan, so they didn't panic , One is defending steadily, and the other is disrupting the situation, so that they can contain each other.

However, after fighting for a while, the bandage on Yin Qiu's hand was completely soaked again. Her cuffs were already soaked in blood, and blood beads were everywhere on her body. Even so, she held the hilt of the sword very tightly, and did not relax a bit because of the pain.

These two female disciples usually did not perform well in martial arts classes. It was purely because they performed well on the spot today and had some good luck, so they made it all the way to the last minute. Yin Qiu knew their strength very well, and also knew Their weaknesses, so seeing these two stalking her, she didn't feel anxious, she just tried to stabilize herself as much as possible, and left Fu Xiang to take the initiative to attack.

Reflecting the dazzling sunlight, the four long swords danced continuously on the stage, clanging one after another, and the fighting on the stage was very fierce.

Two swords were drawn in front of her, and Yin Qiu's eyes were blinked by the reflected brilliance, and she quickly stepped on the wooden wedge on the flag post, turned over and fell not far away with her strength, and then she stood still. The two female disciples worked together and chased after them.

Seeing this situation, Yin Qiu secretly thought that these two really had too little actual combat experience, and they were really careless to show their backs to Fu Xiang so rashly.

Sure enough, before the two female disciples could get close to Yin Qiu, Fu Xiang slapped both of them from behind, causing them to stumble immediately.

However, the psychological qualities of these two are not weak, and they are not angry at a small loss, but they have not changed their tactics. They still grab Yin Qiu and chase her fiercely, which is bound to knock her out of the circle.

Fu Xiang saw that they thought Yin Qiu was easy to bully, so he couldn't help saying angrily: "You guys really only pick soft persimmons, come and fight me if you have the ability!"

Unexpectedly, the two of them ignored her at all, and aimed every move at Yin Qiu, making up their mind not to confront Fu Xiang head-on.

Fu Xiang thought to himself, if it wasn't for the fear that others would see her skills in martial arts, how could these two bullies have been allowed to mess around in front of her for so long?

Fu Xiang snorted coldly, and immediately stood in front of Yin Qiu, no matter how the two tried to deal with Yin Qiu, she would protect Yin Qiu to death, and would not give them any chance to make trouble. At a good time to go around, he realized that the two female disciples had been forced to the edge of the rope circle by Fu Xiang. She picked off the point of the sword.

The female disciple reacted quickly, and hurriedly threw herself sideways towards the ground, and then rolled a few times, rolling to the flag post in an incomparably coherent manner, successfully pulling herself back from the dangerous situation.

And it was her that Yin Qiu was waiting for.

She withdrew and left, and the remaining female disciple was naturally placed on the order. Before Yin Qiu could make a move, Fu Xiang immediately strangled the female disciple's saber, raised her leg and kicked her waist. At the same time, Yin Qiu saw the right time and went up to mend her foot. Before the female disciple could call her companions to help her, her upper body fell backwards.

In an instant, smoke and dust rose everywhere, and there were several exclamations from outside the arena. The female disciple shook her hands and slapped the ground unwillingly, and stood up gritted her teeth.

Xu Lianzhi immediately beat the drum, telling the female disciple to leave immediately.

Seeing that the tactics didn't work, and the companion had already been expelled from the stage, the female disciple who was lucky enough to survive before quickly used her lightness kung fu to step on the wooden wedge, and impatiently climbed up to capture the banner.

Seeing this, Fu Xiang murmured "Not good" in a low voice, and hurriedly ran after her, but as soon as she moved, a slender green figure like bamboo flashed in her eyes.

——Yin Qiu actually climbed up to the flag post before her, and dragged the female disciple down.

·

Fu Xiang was taken aback.

When did this guy get so good at Qinggong!Even she doesn't know!

Fu Xiang only felt that she still underestimated Yin Qiu. At this moment, she recalled the fingering trick that Yin Qiu showed her a few months ago, and finally realized something was wrong in a blink of an eye.

If Man Jiangxue is willing to teach her so much kung fu, why bother?Wouldn't it be better to just accept her as a disciple!

This can only prove that Yin Qiu has others to teach him martial arts.

That is to say, this guy was indeed trying to test himself that day, which is very good!Even though someone taught me martial arts secretly, she still came to find out about her details, that's not enough loyalty!

Fu Xiang was furious, flew over and slapped the female disciple who was in the way far away, and said in a bad tone: "Good job, Xiaoqiu! Everyone learned Qinggong at the same time. You flew over a few times yesterday for me. Look, it's not half as powerful as you were just now, tell me! Is someone teaching you in the dark!"

Yin Qiu didn't expect that she discovered her little secret at this time, but she also said calmly: "You have someone to teach, why can't I have someone to teach?"

Fu Xiang stared at her: "You dared to show it to others just now, aren't you afraid that others will be suspicious?"

"Why do you doubt it?" Yin Qiu said kindly, "Is it true that I am talented in practicing light kung fu? My ability is to make rapid progress. Who would doubt me?"

"I doubt you!" Fu Xiang chased her angrily, "combined with your fingering at the beginning, you definitely lied to me, and it was definitely not Master Man who taught you! She can only give pointers to you in normal times. If she is really willing to teach you so many things in the martial arts class, will she refuse you again and again not to accept you as an apprentice? See if I don’t beat you to death today, you pretending to be innocent!”

The two confronted each other, and at the same time blocked the female disciple tacitly. Everyone who watched this scene was amazed, and they couldn't understand why the two of them suddenly started fighting.

Xu Lianzhi was annoyed: "What the hell are these two brats doing? The two of them are playing house here!"

Lu Huaiwei looked around and said, "Oh, it seems that there is a quarrel."

Xu Lianzhi couldn't help cursing loudly: "You two give me a good fight! Let's argue if there is anything else!"

Among the new disciples this year, Yin Qiu and Fu Xiang were the most favored by her. Xu Lianzhi naturally hoped that they would win, seeing them bickering and fighting in such a formal occasion, naturally couldn't help but get angry.

There are no rules!

Once again overthrowing the female disciple who sneaked to pull up the banner, Yin Qiu smiled and said: "Did you hear that? Sister Teacher, don't let us quarrel, so stop it."

Fu Xiang shouted: "I don't care, you have to tell the truth today!"

Yin Qiu said: "Say it, I will tell you what you say."

"Beautiful thinking!" Fu Xiang said, "Say it first!"

Yin Qiu refused to give in: "You speak first."

Fu Xiang was furious: "Little liar! See if I don't beat you up!"

In fact, Yin Qiu has no strength until now, and she just held her breath the whole time, not wanting to let the other two see her true state, but fortunately one of them has already left the field, and the remaining one can't afford it at all. What kind of splash, it can only be a pointless struggle, Yin Qiu said: "If you really want to fight with me, just throw her out, I just need to rest for a while, otherwise I really can't hold on."

Fu Xiang was cursing, but he knew that he felt sorry for others, so he temporarily spared Yin Qiu after hearing this, and turned to vent his anger at the female disciple.

That female disciple was a little bit aggressive when she was fighting against Yin Qiu with her companions, but now she is fighting Fu Xiang alone, how can she be an opponent?But after a few back and forth, Fu Xiang beat him to the outside of the circle, and he couldn't stand still.

However, she was much calmer than the first female disciple who was defeated. After all, she was already an undeniable fighter in martial arts competitions, ranking above all the new disciples, so naturally there was nothing to be unwilling to do.

·

Seeing this, Xie Yijun held back for a while, but finally couldn't help breaking the silence first, and said, "What else is there to see? Then Fu Xiang will definitely win!"

Man Jiangxue traveled far and wide, pretending to be deaf and dumb.

Seeing that she ignored him, Xie Yijun felt unhappy, but there was nothing he could do about her.

Her junior sister has always been like this. On the surface, she looks casual and indifferent, and she doesn't care about trivial matters. She doesn't fight or grab everything. As long as it doesn't violate her principles, everything is easy to discuss.

But Xie Yijun couldn't understand her better. Man Jiangxue is actually the most stubborn of them. As long as it is something she believes, eight horses can't be pulled back. Xie Yijun is not stupid, of course she can see her He wanted to protect Yin Qiu and didn't want to embarrass the child, so this time he was determined to protect her and fight against himself, and even at this time he refused to put on a good face for her.

Xie Yijun could only sigh, and complained: "As an adult, you are not as good as those two little dolls. You are comfortable arguing with each other when you have conflicts. I can't get used to your cold war-loving personality even in my [-]s and [-]s!"

Man Jiangxue finally laughed and coaxed her: "Senior sister, don't be angry, take care of yourself."

Xie Yijun rolled his eyes back at her.

Under the stands, Xu Lianzhi had already asked the female disciple to step off the stage. As soon as Fu Xiang turned her head, she saw Yin Qiu's little face was wrinkled in pain, and her face was as white as a piece of paper. !"

Yin Qiu stabbed her body with her sword on the ground, and gave her a happy smile when she heard the words: "I'll tell you what you say."

Fu Xiang was really annoyed to death, so he rushed over with a persistent sword: "Forget it, let's fight!"

Yin Qiu laughed lightly, flew towards the flag post, and climbed upwards nimbly. Fu Xiang saw that she had begun to lose strength, and her speed had slowed down a lot, so she did not use all her strength to follow. The two of them So he made a move on the wooden wedge, but it was like that.

After playing like this for a while, Fu Xiang gradually lost his patience, and urged: "Are you okay? If not, I'll be serious."

Yin Qiu slipped on the soles of his feet, quickly stood still while supporting the flagpost, and said, "Fu Xiang."

Fu Xiang looked at her: "Why?"

Yin Qiu's eyes shone softly, and he said softly, "Go pull up the flag."

Fu Xiang was taken aback: "Are you going to let me go?"

Yin Qiu smiled and shook his head: "It's not that I want to let you go, it's that I can't beat you."

It was past noon now, and the sunlight was milder than before. The clothes of both of them were soaked with sweat, and their hair was disheveled. They could not conceal their tiredness.

Fu Xiang was a little dazed for some reason, and Yin Qiu didn't want to make it too obvious, so he insisted on fighting with her to prevent Xie Yijun from getting more angry when he saw her perfunctory appearance. Yin Qiu said calmly while using his sword moves: "Victory is right in front of you, don't think about anything else, listen to what I said, you must beat me down later, and then don't hesitate to pull off the banner, and wait for the head to accept you as a disciple Finally, you must write a letter to your father within today, tell him your grades today, and ask him to take you back to Mingyue Tower as soon as possible, the sooner the better."

After hearing these words, Fu Xiang couldn't help feeling a little confused and asked, "Why?"

Yin Qiu said: "There is no reason, I told you to do this, just obey."

Fu Xiang paused for a moment, and stopped uncontrollably. She suddenly changed her complexion and looked at Yin Qiu for a long time in despair. Then she said, "Did you make arrangements a long time ago?" She looked straight at Yin Qiu. Yin Qiu's hand, "You were injured on purpose, and you persisted until now, just because you are afraid that if I don't perform well and lose to others, as long as you and I are the last ones left, you can make me feel at ease win?"

Yin Qiu said, "You want to go home, don't you?"

Fu Xiang said, "So what?"

Yin Qiu said, "Then I can only help you so far."

"Wait," Fu Xiang frowned, and said in a deep voice, "You won't help me for no reason. Tell me, is there someone who doesn't want me to go home... Is there someone who wants to deal with me?"

"No one dealt with you," Yin Qiu said, "I want to help you."

"No, don't try to lie to me," Fu Xiang gripped the sword tightly, his face serious, "If someone really wants to deal with me, they must suspect something about me. Instead of keeping me in the dark, why don't you Tell me the truth of the matter, otherwise I won't take No.1 with peace of mind."

Yin Qiu had already expected her to have such a reaction, so he didn't say yes or no, and just replied: "You deserve the No. 1 title, but you have to admit that you can win because of my help." It went so smoothly, so I want you to promise me a request."

Fu Xiang looked at her with complicated eyes: "What request."

"It doesn't matter whether you can succeed the young landlord after returning to Mingyue Tower, and it doesn't matter how far you can go in the future," Yin Qiu looked back at her seriously, "You are not allowed to deal with Yunhua Palace, nor are you allowed to deal with Yunhua Palace. Hua Gong has some unfavorable actions, if you fail to agree, or if you promise and then backtrack, then in this life, you will no longer be my friend, but my enemy."

Fu Xiang was greatly surprised by her words, and argued: "How can I deal with Yunhua Palace? What are you talking about?"

"I've made it very clear," Yin Qiu said plainly, "Yunhua Palace is not only my home, but also the home of my uncle and so many senior brothers and sisters. As a member of Yunhua Palace, I have Voluntary Guardian Shimen, I have made a mistake by helping you today, so you must agree to my request, can you do it?"

Fu Xiang was shocked.

From the very beginning, she entered the palace to complete the task of Meng Wugui, one to find something, and the other to take care of Yin Qiu. She has never had any bad intentions, but Yin Qiu can say these words now, only It can show that she has been suspected by others. Without knowing the reason for her visit, anyone who notices her suspiciousness will think badly at the first time. She can almost determine who is suspicious of her, and she can also She figured out how the man wanted to deal with her, but she still couldn't tell the truth to Yin Qiu under the circumstances.

But Yin Qiu is willing to do this without knowing her real purpose.

The so-called hard work is nothing more than this.

Fu Xiang was silent for a moment, watching Yin Qiu's eyes gradually form a layer of mist, she thought a lot during this short time, and finally nodded solemnly: "Okay, I promise you."

Yin Qiu smiled, grasped the sword again and went up to her.

"Now then, beat me."
