Cranes and Blazing Sun - C26

The white dawn appeared on the horizon, gradually becoming brighter. The mountain breeze blew through the forest, causing some unknown birds to flutter on the branches. Some of them raised their heads while others flapped their wings, trying to attract the attention of others. An old man laughed loudly in front of the thatched cottage and said, “Three children, you sure sleep well.”

Zhang Qingyun was the first to run out. This old man’s gaze was extremely impassive as he stood on the grass. He walked over and cupped his fists as he said, “Senior is very interested, I wonder what advice you have.”

Miao Rufei and Lei Zhaoting also walked out. The two of them glanced at each other before they walked over. Lei Zhaoting said, “You old man, why are you acting so crazy this early in the morning?”

Zhang Qingyun said, “Tingting. You can’t be this unreasonable with senior. ”

The old man walked to Lei Zhaoting’s side and said, “Kid, you have a really big temper?” Do you know who owns this room? ”

Hearing his words, Miao Rufei walked into the corridor and greeted him, “Senior, good day. I was really disturbing you last night, I’m sorry to bother you so much.”

The old man said, “No need, this house is not mine.”

The three of them couldn’t help but look at each other. Lei Qiuting said, “Of course it’s not yours. What’s that called?”

The old man said, “Little girl, did you eat some medicine early in the morning? Why are you so aggressive?”

Zhang Qingyun asked, “Senior, what can I do for you?”

The elder said, “Child, you are the leader of the Dian Cang Sect.”

Zhang Qingyun said, “Yes, he is indeed a junior. I wonder what ideas do you have?”

The old man said, “I don’t dare to say so, I just want to borrow something from Sect Leader Zhang.”

Zhang Qingyun said, “I wonder what it is?”

The old man said, “This is the longsword in your hand.”

Zhang Qingyun was startled and said, “Senior, what is the use of borrowing a sword?”

The elder said, “It will only take one day to ensure its return tomorrow.”

Zhang Qingyun said, “Junior would also like to lend it to Senior, but this sword of Junior’s is the emblem of Sect Leader Dian Cang. With the sword here, Junior cannot help it.”

The elder said, “Kid, why are you so stingy? Is it only for one day?”

Zhang Qingyun said, “What junior said is very clear. Senior, please go ahead. ” He turned around and walked in.

Lei Qiuting said, “You’re still not leaving? Just wait for me to treat you to a meal.”

Miao Rufei said, “Senior, let’s go. I really can’t lend you Brother Qing Yun’s sword.”

The old man said, “Alright, you kids, stop right there.” His hands formed claws and clawed at them.

Zhang Qingyun dodged to the side, his right hand stretched out horizontally. One Stellar Transposition, he counterattacked.

When the old man touched Zhang Qingyun’s palm, he chuckled and said, “Kid, you still have some skill.” His body spun in half a circle as he waved his palm up and down, blocking Zhang Qingyun’s attack.

Zhang Qingyun saw the elder block his arm. His arm started to emit an invisible power. He thought that this old man’s martial arts were unfathomable. He had never seen such a deep inner force before. He gathered his attention and activated the Qi of the First Sky of the Ancient Strengthening Technique.

The old man attacked faster and faster, using the Great Grasping Hand technique. Zhang Qingyun was able to block a few more moves, but in the end, he could only dodge as much as he could. The old man’s movement technique was also faster than he had ever been before. His moves were loud and clear.

The old man chuckled and said, “Kid, you are actually able to hold your own against me for more than thirty moves. Truly, it can be said later.” With a sudden turn, he retreated three to four feet and said, “Smelly old Daoist, you’re still not coming out?”

A Daoist man in a robe floated out from the forest. He looked about forty years old, but his eyes were filled with spirit. He landed on the ground without a sound, showing that he had cultivated his internal martial arts to the next stage. He walked to Zhang Qingyun’s side and said, “Sect Leader Zhang, this old Taoist asked you to forgive me, Sect Leader Zhang. This old Taoist thought that Su Chen had made a joke with you earlier along with Yu San Xia.”

Zhang Qingyun said with a start, “You are Chen Xiang, the Golden Silk Sword Su of the Wudang Sect.”

Elder Yu smiled and said, “Kid, it’s as if I’m changing the truth. Who would pretend to be this smelly nose old Daoist?” He turned around and said, “Old Daoist Smelly, although I lost this round, I still refuse to accept my loss.”

Zhang Qingyun asked, “What are you two seniors betting about?”

Su Chenxiang said, “Actually, this is also a gamble. The Dian Cang Sect is one of the nine great sects in the martial arts world, and the Dian Cang Sect’s sword is one of the three treasures in the martial arts world. Let’s return to normal and show off our might. ”

Zhang Qingyun bowed and said, “Thank you for your guidance, seniors. Junior will definitely protect this Mysterious Sky Sword with all my might and lead these disciples to glory.”

Elder Yu said, “Child, your kung fu is not bad, causing me to be unable to catch you.”

Zhang Qingyun said, “Actually, with just ten more moves, Senior will be able to force junior to have no way out.”

Elder Yu said, “Then how can I hide my face? If I didn’t have a bet with Old Daoist Smelly, I wouldn’t have fought with you for thirty moves. It would be a great shame if I didn’t manage to take you down within ten moves.”

Su Chen Xiang said, “This is the one who is called the Three Hero of Wind and Dust, Yu Yufeng and Yu Sans of the Jianghu.” In the martial arts world, there were no more than fifteen people who could withstand thirty of his moves. No more than ten people like Sect Leader Zhang can escape unscathed. ”

Yu Yufeng said, “Sigh, smelly old Daoist, are you praising me or him?”

Su Chen Xiang, stroking her beard, gently smiled.

Lei Qiuting said, “Of course it’s to praise my Big Brother Yun. Who would praise a disrespectful old man like you?”

Yu Yufeng said, “Hey, you little girl, don’t underestimate me, Old Yu.”

Lei Qiuting said, “I’m underestimating you. I don’t even want to look at you. It’s so early in the morning and I’m acting like I’m crazy.”

Yu Yufeng’s nose was crooked from anger as he said, “If I didn’t reveal a few things today, I would really be looked down upon by a little girl like you.”

Lei Qiuting said, “What skill do you have if you beat me? If you have the ability, can you cure the poison in my Big Brother Yun’s body? If you remove the poison, then I sincerely admire you.”

Yu Yufeng was startled and asked, “What’s going on? Is Sect Leader Zhang poisoned?” His palm reached out to cover Sect Leader Zhang’s wrist as he shook his head, “Weird, truly weird.”

Lei Qiuting said, “What’s so weird about it? Do you know how to do it or not?”

Yu Yufeng said, “Sect Leader Zhang’s pulse is so weird. It seems like he suffered some internal injuries, but it also seems like he is poisoned. Furthermore, there’s more than one. How strange.”

Lei Qiuting said, “Don’t blame me. Are you sure you can do it?”

Yu Yufeng let go of Zhang Qingyun’s hand and said, “Girl, you’re not bad at all. Actually, you don’t need to provoke me like this if you want me to take action.”

Lei Qiuting said, “Who provoked you?”

Su Chen Xiang said, “Sect Leader Zhang, please let this old Daoist have a look.”

Zhang Qingyun raised his arm and said, “What I got was a huge poison, I was just injured by the person who issued the Life and Death Decree, and before I could recover, I was poisoned by the poison of the Five Poison Cult’s Sect Leader Chu Yu, and then by the poison of the person who injured me, my poison is very difficult to cure.”

Su Chen Xiang let go of Zhang Qingyun’s arm and said, “It is indeed a strange poison. The people who poisoned were not ordinary people. It is fortunate that Sect Leader Zhang’s internal energy is profound. So the poison has yet to show any symptoms on your body. If I want to cure this poison, I’ll need the help of High Monk Shaolin to see if I can force out your poison with my unparalleled inner force skills. ”

Miao Rufei said, “That’s great. We also need Shaolin.”

Lei Qiuting said, “Then I’ll have to trouble Sect Leader Su to introduce us. We must save Big Brother Yun.”

Su Chen Xiang said, “Naturally,”

Zhang Qingyun said, “Then many thanks, seniors.”

Yu Yufeng said, “What’s there to thank me for? It’s just inviting you to know a few monks.”

Lei Qiuting said, “Aiya, it’s not like I’m thanking you. What are you trying to coax me for?”

Zhang Qingyun said, “Tingting, don’t be rude to Senior Yu. You’ve also been poisoned, let’s first get some food here, then quickly head to Shaolin. ” He turned around and said to the two of them, “How are you, seniors?”

Yu Yufeng said, “Great,” walking in with large strides, he suddenly turned around and asked, “Sect Leader Zhang, may I ask which of these two are your wives?”

Zhang Qingyun blushed and said, “I’m not married yet. These two are my life friends.”

Yu Yufeng said, “Oh, it’s like this. I saw that this Tingting girl treats you pretty well, and also treats Old Yu’s temper quite well.” He turned around and walked in.

Lei Qiuting said, “He’s really crazy and spouting nonsense.”

Zhang Qingyun said, “Tingting, Fei, the two of you go to the kitchen and see what you have to eat.”

The two of them entered. Zhang Qingyun said, “Sect Leader Su, please …”

Su Chenxiang said, “Sect Leader Zhang, don’t be so polite. I have a few of the Ten Treasured Pellets that I gave to Sect Leader Zhang to see if they are useful against the poison in your body.”

Zhang Qingyun said, “How could I dare? Many thanks to Sect Leader Su.”

Before long, the two of them helped each other serve a bowl of noodles.

Miao Rufei said, “Seniors, there’s only noodles here, so please prepare some.”

Su Chen Xiang took the bowl and said, “Thank you.”

Yu Yufeng said, “This noodles are so delicious. Lady Miao, you cooked it …”

Miao Rufei replied, “I just boiled some water. Tingting cooked the noodles.”

Yu Yufeng’s face suddenly darkened and said, “No wonder it tastes so bad.” So it was you, you stinking girl. ”

Lei Qiuting rolled her eyes. “Hey, old man, you can eat if you want. Don’t talk so much. Don’t eat if you don’t like it,” she said as she reached out to grab his bowl.

Yu Yufeng said, “Don’t. Although it’s not tasty, it’s better than starving.”

The other three couldn’t help but look at each other and smile.

After the five finished their noodles, Su Chen Xiang led the way towards Shaolin.
