Chapter 148 Outsiders

The echoes of footsteps sounded in the quiet alley.

A young man was washing his face by digging a well.

The young man was wearing very old clothes, and his body was covered with dust.

Behind him was a dilapidated courtyard, which was extremely dilapidated and could not be lived in at all. In Changling, its only advantage is that it is very cheap.

The young man was able to live in one of the side houses only at the cost of helping to repair the courtyard.

The owner of the house is an elderly couple. They used to run an oil pressing mill, but oil pressing is a laborious job. After their two sons were called into the army, the oil pressing mill was transferred to others.

This small courtyard was originally the residence of the elderly, but the residence of their two sons was empty, and the houses would easily be destroyed if they could not live in, so they could only live in their son's courtyard.

This winter, the roof of the yard was crushed by snow and suddenly became dilapidated. The old couple was extremely short of money. After only more than a month, the yard became less and less decent.

It costs a craftsman to repair this yard very much. If no one takes care of it, the yard will probably repeat the same mistake even if it is repaired.

It is also difficult to find a young man who is willing to accept such conditions, so just seeing the young man's work a few days ago and looking at the progress of the renovation of the courtyard, the old couple was happy and even grateful to the young man. The conditions they agreed on did not include meals, but the old couple sent some food from time to time these two days.

The courtyard of the small courtyard still looks dilapidated, but the roofs of the three rooms have been repaired. Today, the discarded debris from the house have been cleaned up in the courtyard. When all the discarded debris are cleaned out, water will be sprinkled with cleaning the courtyard and clearing all the weeds and trees, this small courtyard should give people a refreshing feeling.

When the footsteps stopped, another young man appeared at the entrance of the alley.

The young man looked at the young man who was washing his face with well water and smiled and said, "Li Guanlan?"

The young man who washed his face with well water stood up and said to the young man parked at the entrance of the alley, "Chen Nianyuan?"

The young man at the entrance of the alley said curiously: "How do you know that I am Chen Nianyuan?"

Li Guanlan looked at him and said, "Because some people reminded me a long time ago that you would definitely come to me and ask for the sword in my hand. But no one expected that you would hide it for dozens of days and it was not until now that you appeared in front of me. Your patience is better than everyone imagined."

"It has nothing to do with patience, I just have to wait for a suitable opportunity." Chen Nianyuan looked at the sword master in front of him, who was about the same age as him, and asked even more curiously, "As far as I know, the Demon Sword retired with Qi Hanshan. Even if Qi Hanshan and Gu Liren have old age, why did this sword suddenly come to your hands again?"

Li Guanlan glanced at Chen Nianyuan and said, "Because Wang Jingmeng doesn't need this sword, if Wang Jingmeng needs this sword, then this sword will naturally be in his hands."

Chen Nianyuan frowned slightly. He understood what Li Guanlan meant, "So what you mean is that others are stronger than swords and do not need such a sword at all. Such a sword will only hinder the heights he can reach. Instead, we need to rely on this sword to stand at a higher height."

Li Guanlan said: "You can think so."

Chen Nianyuan said: "It's just that my views are fundamentally different from you. Being able to kill enemies with one sword is not a real king. A real king can control countless swords, countless sword masters, and kill tens of millions of people."

Li Guanlan looked at him and said, "The re-emergence of the Demon Sword is to let many people like you appear."

"Then let the conspiracy surface with the collision of ambitious people, so that you can find out the culprits who killed Gu Liren?" Chen Nianyuan looked at Li Guanlan, shook his head seriously, and said, "Believe me, Gu Liren, and the rest of the people who died in the struggle of power in history, since they are all victims of power, it is just the general trend, not the intention of anyone."

"This is what you mean." Li Guanlan said: "But in our opinion, the general trend can also change."

"Is it that simple?" Chen Nianyuan suddenly laughed mockingly, "Just today, even if I just want your Demon Sword, is it really that simple? Some people will want me to die here, because this may intensify the hatred between my Korean dynasty practitioners and your Bashan Sword Field. In this general trend, we are at most a bait and a fire. Today, you and I are here, and I am probably like an outsider watching the show."

when

His laughter sounded, and before he finished speaking, he had already walked to Li Guanlan not far away.

At the same time, a shrill roar suddenly sounded in the air.

The sky suddenly became dark.

It was obvious that only five arrows came through the sky, but these five arrows were surrounded by black light, which absorbed the sky in the sky.

Li Guanlan frowned deeply.

However, Chen Nianyuan did not make any moves.

He seemed to be waiting for these five arrows to penetrate his body.

A thunder suddenly appeared in the deep alley.

A sword light that seemed particularly wide slashed out, with its unique power, actually swept all the five arrows that broke through the air.

The tiles of a small courtyard next to it suddenly became dusty.

Two flying swords flew towards Chen Nianyuan together.

This street is far away from the downtown of Changling and is very quiet.

But the moment these two flying swords appeared, the streets seemed to be completely boiling.

Not only are there continuous sounds of breaking through the air in this street and alley, but countless drum-like footsteps sounded on the outside of the street and alley.

Among several seemingly uninhabited courtyards, practitioners wearing many blue and crimson robes gushed out like rivers breaking through the dam.

Li Guanlan was stunned.

Chen Nianyuan laughed.

The two flying swords seemed to fly towards Chen Nianyuan at the same time, but suddenly, the two flying swords started to fight.

...

Zheng Xiu looked at the streets from afar.

Today's Changling has attracted too much attention by Wang Jingmeng's walking, and Chen Nianyuan, who had come to Changling but disappeared in Changling for a long time, also appeared today.

Chen Nianyuan's purpose cannot be as simple as ordinary people in the martial arts world.

He chose to appear at this time, and he must have a more profound purpose.

He was not trying to get the Demon Confused Sword, so what was he doing?

She sat in the carriage, thinking motionlessly.

She thought what she would do if she had been the powerful man from the Korean dynasty.
