Chapter 276 Hero Building (Second update)
Maoling is the last wharf to the west of Jiangzhou. It connects the south to the north and the east to the west. It is an important place on the river. Therefore, the Dajiang Gang has a branch here. The Wang family has also sent foreign affairs elders and many experts to stay there. The two dragons crossed the river, forcing the local snakes to succumb. After all, their family's roots are in the east of the river, so they can't be considered outsiders.
In addition, Maoling is the county capital and is close to Zhongzhou. There are Yinzhang and Qingshou heads, and tiger and leopard heads. The power of the six gates cannot be underestimated.
Singing during the day, accompanied by youth, Maoling, which is stable and prosperous and occupies an important water and land route, is the world-famous gold-selling cave, Tianzi No. 1 Casino, and ten miles of water, making people who come here enjoy it and never want to leave, until the last breath on their bodies. The money was squeezed out.
But when it comes to what Maoling is most famous for, they are still far behind. Wang's Residence Garden, Dajiangbang Crescent Lake, and Hero Building are the places that everyone knows about Maoling.
Meng Qi carries a sword on his back, wearing a heroic attire, a hero's scarf on his head, sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes. He attracts a lot of attention as he walks on the road, and some girls even make secret glances or wave their silk scarves.
"Wind-Chasing Stick" Qiu Fei entered the Huazhou Guild Hall. Meng Qi did not follow and went straight to the Hero Building. Since he wanted to intervene openly and openly in the undercurrent of Maoling as Crazy Saber Su Meng, he had to tell everyone openly, I am coming!
You need to show off your attitude as a top player on the list!
The Hero Building is a five-story building with a red and black base. It is both solemn and full of passion. The downstairs is crowded with people, and countless heroes are queuing up.
The gatekeepers are several heroic warriors, both men and women, all of whom are at the enlightenment level. One of them is in front, and the four of them are resting, as if they are taking turns to do things.
Currently there is a young man holding a long sword. He is about 20 years old, has four cultivation levels, and has a background in the Hero Building. His smile is slightly arrogant and he says loudly:
"If you can take ten blows from me, you can enter."
No one present was angry, because this was the rule of the Hero Building.
Behind the man's door, there are vertical plaques on both sides:
"The talents from the north and the south are in vain if they stop at the door."
"Heroes from East and West are not heroes if they don't enter this building."
The heroes who felt that they were qualified and capable to enter lined up at the door. Meng Qi happily mingled in and watched the excitement.
A man in his twenties, holding a long sword, stepped forward first, cupped his hands and said, "Please."
The guard swordsman didn't say much either. He slashed down with a large golden ring sword with a heavy sound of wind. The moves were concise and clumsy was better than skillful.
"The sword skills are not bad." Meng Qi praised.
A few people lined up behind him gave him a strange look. What's so admirable about this? If he didn't have good strength and outstanding swordsmanship, how could he be sent by the owner of the Hero Building to guard the gate and select heroes.
Facing this powerful and heavy sword, the swordsman sealed it horizontally with his long sword. With a bang, he took a step back, his right hand trembling slightly, as if it was too powerful.
With a smile on his face, the guard swordsman took a step forward and slashed again with his long sword, still opening and closing widely, not sticking to small details, using his strength and speed to crush people.
The swordsman did not dare to block anymore. On one side of his body, the long sword emerged from a hole like a poisonous snake, avoiding the sharp edge and reaching directly under his armpit.
Suddenly, the long sword changed to a sweeping sweep, and the strong wind roared, causing the swordsman's face to hurt.
If he continued to attack, he might not be able to reach his target before he was cut in half, so he would have to force his sword back to resist.
when!
The sound of the fighting became clearer, and the swordsman dropped his sword and fell to the ground.
His face turned pale. He didn't expect that the swordsmanship he had practiced for many years was so weak. He stared at the sword on the ground in a daze.
"Not bad, you used your advantages to the fullest." Meng Qi praised again.
Do you still need to say this? A few people behind him looked at him again, guessing that he was a person from other places who came here because of his reputation.
Then, several challengers appeared on the stage, but none of them could hold out for ten moves. The smile on the swordsman's face became even bigger. The reason why he agreed to guard the door was to practice swordsmanship and reap the joy of victory. It is true that there are many talents and many heroes, but there are more ordinary and mediocre ones, ten or twenty times more than the former.
Suddenly, the swordsman's eyes lit up and he saw a brave and masculine young man. He imitated "Crazy Sword" Su Meng and carried a sword on his back. He wore a black outfit and a hero scarf. Regardless of his strength, he looked really good. .
"If you can take ten swords from me, you can enter." The swordsman repeated the rules without any nonsense.
Meng Qi didn't say anything, he took off the "Heaven's Wound" with the sheath and knife, and waited with a smile.
The swordsman still struck the head with a powerful and heavy blow, the nine rings swayed, and the crisp sound was sweet.
He continued to use his strengths to overwhelm others.
Meng Qi also slashed out with his sword without any fancy, but did not draw the sword out of its sheath.
Are you actually trying to fight me? The swordsman was slightly stunned, and his hand tightened. Since the other party was so cooperative, of course he was disrespectful and used his full strength.
puff!
The long knife hit the scabbard and made a muffled sound.
Why is it so heavy? The swordsman felt that the knife in front of him was unusually heavy, heavier than the ninety-two-pound water-milled Zen rod he had encountered before, as if it was impossible to support it as if it were weighed down by a mountain.
Coupled with the power of Meng Qi's attack, the swordsman's jaw hurt, his wrist went numb, and his long sword was directly knocked down.
when! The sound of the long sword hitting the ground echoed, and the swordsman couldn't recover. He was born with great strength, but he was actually defeated by his strength.
Meng Qitian's injury turned around, he turned to his side, and said with a smile: "I accept, can I go in?"
Only then did everyone in the queue react and whisper to each other:
"Here comes the master."
"He actually defeated force with force. Is he born with divine power?"
"I wonder how many floors he can break through?"
While they were talking, they were either looking at Meng Qi or looking at the stairwells of several floors of the Hero Building, where a warrior stood on each floor.
"Yes, please invite me." The swordsman guarded the door. He had encountered many masters, and this was not the first time he suffered a disastrous defeat. He quickly adjusted his mentality and invited Meng Qi to enter.
Meng Qi held the sheathed sword and walked into the door at a leisurely pace.
The first floor of the Hero Building is very spacious, with many square tables, but most of them are empty and it doesn't look lively. However, those who drink and eat here are all bright-eyed, energetic and powerful people.
Meng Qi didn't stop and walked directly up the stairs to the second floor. This caused the drinkers in the lobby and everyone outside to look up, anticipating a fight between dragons and tigers, and guessing which floor he would finally reach.
The person guarding the entrance to the second floor is a swordsman. He knows the enemy mentally and detects the enemy with his true energy. His cultivation level cannot be hidden from Meng Qi. There are many imperfections in the six apertures and the true energy flow.
"If you can take my ten swords, you can enter." He held the sword with a cold expression and said the same words.
Meng Qi still swung the sword with the scabbard in the same way, using the sword to attract people, and in one step he struck the guard swordsman on top of his head.
The surrounding air suddenly surged, and all of it was absorbed by the long sword, giving the swordsman the feeling that the sword enveloped the world. It was indestructible, unavoidable, and could only block it.
He raised his sword and tried to release the force of the sword with some skill.
puff!
A muffled sound reached his ears, and the swordsman felt that the strength of the opponent's sword was highly condensed, completely attached to the blade, and could not be removed. After the explosion, he suddenly had the illusion that his right arm no longer belonged to him, feeling numb and weak.
When the long sword fell on the floor, Meng Qi nodded in greeting, said a word of acceptance, and walked directly past him to the third floor.
"So fast!"
"It's still a knife!"
"So fierce and domineering!"
Voices of exclamation came from below. Watching Meng Qi disappear at the stairwell of the second floor, they all focused their attention on the same location on the third floor.
"How many floors can he go up?"
"Will you still be able to defeat the watcher on the third floor with a single blow?"
"Impossible. The man guarding the third floor today is the 'Flowing Water Gun' Gao Donglou. He has all seven orifices opened, and has completed the inner cycle of heaven and earth. He also studied spears with famous teachers and trained hard for ten years. It is no small feat. How can he be defeated with a single sword? "
Gao Donglou is a handsome-looking man with a spear slung behind his back. He looks a bit like Chang Banpo Zhao Zilong in Meng Qi's mind. This is the style of painting he has been pursuing tirelessly.
"Please." Gao Donglou did not look down upon any opponent who came here and took the lead.
The spear is like a dragon, with pear blossoms shaking out from the tip. It looks beautiful, but it hides a killing move and attracts people into the game.
Meng Qi seemed not to notice it, but it was still the same blow to the head, absorbing all the vitality of the air flow, shrinking the sky and shrinking the ground. The sword was fierce and domineering. Compared with before, it was more terrifying and like a punishment from heaven, making people tremble physically and mentally.
Well done! Gao Donglou secretly thought, the place he attacked was exactly the flaw he had sold, he was in the game!
The pear blossoms dissipated, and the shadow of the gun returned to form. The spear seemed to move a few inches out of thin air, avoiding the long knife and stabbing Meng Qi.
One inch longer and one inch stronger, his own spear can pierce him before his sword hits him!
But at this moment, Meng Qi followed the force of the sword and shrank to close the distance. He turned slightly sideways and missed the spear!
If it had been one minute earlier, Gao Donglou would have been able to swing his spear sideways and open up Meng Qi. If it had been one minute later, it would have been inevitable. The timing was perfect!
The long sword was coming, Gao Donglou stepped back to avoid it. Just when he was about to return the gun and fight again, he saw Meng Qi put away the sword and return. Following the gap he retreated, he stepped into the third floor. Shi Shiran stepped on the door leading to the fourth floor. On the steps of the building, the mood was leisurely, as if he just said hello to himself when he took out the knife.
This strength, this grace... Gao Donglou let out a breath and struck the ground with his spear.
"It turned out to be just one knife!"
"He, he's probably a top player on the list, right?"
"With a sword on his back, could it be 'Crazy Sword' Su Meng?"
"possible!"
"It's better to meet him than to be famous. I thought 'Crazy Sword' was a reckless and brute force man, but I didn't expect him to be so handsome!"
Meng Qi listened intently and almost burst into tears. It was not easy to get such a comment.
"It won't be a problem for him to get through the fourth floor, but the person guarding the entrance to the fifth floor is 'Aurora Electric Sword' Xiao Zhenhai. He was once ranked 26th on the all-time list. He was removed from the list a few years ago because of his age. Now I'm afraid he has It’s almost half a step outside.”
"The day before yesterday, the 'Five Directions Emperor Sword' defeated the 'Aurora Electric Sword' with ten moves and climbed to the fifth floor. The strength of the top twenty on the list is definitely far superior to the others!"
"Five Directions Emperor Sword" Qingyu, direct descendant of Xuantian Sect, Qiqiao, successful in practicing "The Jade Book of Heavenly Emperor", has been in the world for about the same age as Meng Qi, he is already sixteenth on the list, and a strong candidate for the top ten in the future.
