A mysterious apprentice

"It shouldn't be a big deal. Although it looks exaggerated, the powder is actually only on the surface of the eyes. As long as it is washed off, there should be no problem."

Listening to Zhao Xuyu's words, Bai Yuan carefully dripped clear water into Xiao Zheng's eyes, the original pair of black eyes were completely covered by the red blood, and there was no sign that he was fine at all.

"However, the other party just ran away like this. I'm afraid they just want to send a message." Zhao Xuyu picked up the dart brought back by Bai Yuan. There was a quite obvious notch on it. They were very familiar with that weird icon. .

Bai Yuan didn't reply, he didn't dare to vent his anger, his hands kept shaking, for fear that too much drip would aggravate Xiao Zheng's injury.

"The Devil's Cult, I'm afraid it's really going to reappear."

Throwing the dart aside, Zhao Xuyu said angrily.

This night was destined not to be peaceful. Bai Yuan and Xiao Zheng didn't go to sleep until the early morning. In fact, they were almost flushed, but Bai Yuan always felt that there was still some residue, so he repeated it again and again. His character, so it has been a long time.

"From now on, it is forbidden to go out to practice at night. I will go to Wanli Mountain Villa later. No, I will talk about it when I return to Bai's house. It's too dangerous. I have to train myself well. It's really too bad."

After waking up early in the morning, Bai Yuan started chattering about how many mistakes he made last night, Xiao Zheng silently followed behind him.

In fact, he feels much better now. The powder sprayed in his eyes yesterday was really painful. After a while, he felt an inexplicable sense of relief. After washing, he could even see more clearly.

But Xiao Zheng didn't dare to say these words, Bai Yuan is a **** barrel now, if he dared to say that, he would definitely be blown up.

"Oh, good morning, are your eyes okay now?" Zhao Xuyu was already downstairs, and when he saw them, he reached out and waved.

Bai Yuan walked over and sighed heavily: "It should be okay, I'm not sure, I can't get anything out of him if I ask him, I just know it's okay."

Zhao Xuyu smiled helplessly, and Xiao Zheng sat beside Bai Yuan with his head down, eating quietly.

"However, I really didn't expect that there would be such a big fanfare. I'm afraid nothing unexpected will happen in today's martial arts competition to recruit relatives."

Bai Yuan nodded slightly, yesterday he still had the attitude of watching the excitement, but now he has to be serious, but...

"Xiao Zheng, why don't you just stay in the inn, if they attack again, it will be bad." Bai Yuan felt that he was very reasonable, but Xiao Zheng shook his head bluntly to express his rejection. .

"Master, I want to go and have a look. My eyes are fine, there is no problem at all."

Although Bai Yuan could list one, two, three, four, five, nearly a thousand reasons why Xiao Zheng couldn't go, but when he met Xiao Zheng's determined gaze, he flinched again.

It's okay, no matter what, he is also Bai Yuan, the gentleman with a jade face, as long as he stays vigilant, how could he not be able to protect his apprentice.

Zhao Xuyu watched the interaction between the two of them, and felt that the master didn't look like a master, and the apprentice didn't look like an apprentice either. It was quite interesting to go back and forth.

The martial arts competition was scheduled for the afternoon, and the three of them wandered the streets casually, but Bai Yuan completely lost the leisure of last night, and looked around very nervously, never letting go of his hand on the hilt of his sword.

"Yesterday, what happened?" Zhao Xuyu was also frightened by his battle, so he simply shrank back and walked side by side with Xiao Zheng, quietly trying to find out the inside story.

Xiao Zheng has nothing to say, but he can only say that his master is kind and benevolent, and he can't see him being hurt by people in the devil's religion.

When the martial arts competition officially started in the afternoon, all those talented knights who were scattered in various inns appeared. The three of them found a good place that was convenient for watching and watched silently.

"Just now that Liu Shaoxia, who seems to have joined the hero list this year, and the one over there, originally thought he was going to retire to the mountains and forests, but he also appeared. It seems that the daughter of the city lord has a lot of background."

Zhao Xuyu talked eloquently on the sidelines. Although the people in Baihua Valley spent most of their time in the valley, they were not ambiguous when talking about the outside affairs. At least Bai Yuan thought that he hardly recognized the people below.

The mighty gong sounded, and then the main event was finally about to start. A red hydrangea was thrown out from the curtain, and the city lord's daughter in a red dress opened the curtain and walked out step by step.

She didn't wear a veil, so everyone could see her appearance clearly. To be honest, her face was indeed as delicate and beautiful as a peach blossom.

Zhao Xuyu pursed her lips when she saw it, and she was a little unhappy no matter what.

Bai Yuan took a look and was sure that this daughter didn't have any martial arts at all, so she couldn't be the assassin who attacked them last night.

Although the figure is fundamentally right, but the opponent may have a disguise if he can't stand it.

There were quite a few people who came to watch the martial arts competition to recruit relatives, but not many people actually participated in this battle. Most of them just watched the excitement and saw which hero's arms the charming beauty would run into.

Bai Yuan searched the crowd for a long time, but did not find any suspicious person.

Xiao Zheng glanced at his master once or twice, thought for a while and still didn't disturb him, and let Bai Yuan continue to search hard.

It was during this time that the struggle on stage had begun.

The two people who came up first were holding a gun and the other was carrying a hammer. They both seemed to be eyeing tigers, but they were slightly inferior in appearance.

Anyway, Zhao Xuyu didn't want to read it after two glances, but Bai Yuan was still there to analyze the body shape and confirm his identity.

After looking around, Xiao Zheng suddenly caught sight of a person from the corner of his eye. He reached out and patted Bai Yuan's shoulder: "Master, that person over there seems to be the person I met last night."

"What, are you serious?"

Before Bai Yuan could find it, he saw a black shadow rushing out quickly, and stood directly on the high platform.

Brother Tie Hammer over there just kicked his opponent down, and he didn't feel timid when he saw the man in black, he just smiled.

"Yes, that's right, it's him." Xiao Zheng said with extra certainty, the guy's aura hadn't changed, and to use familiar words, he smelled bad all over his body.

When Bai Yuan heard this, he immediately wanted to go down from the high platform, but he didn't forget to grab Xiao Zheng's hand and pull him to run together.

On the other hand, Zhao Xuyu didn't keep up with the rhythm of the two of them for a while, and stayed there for two seconds before reacting.

The city lord stood on the stage and presided over the wedding banquet. He was broad-chested and fat all the time, smiling cheerfully. He didn't feel anything special when he saw the man in black coming up. Instead, he happily continued to preside over the meeting.

The man in black was also quite neat and tidy, he didn't pay any attention to the provocation of the hammer man, and came up with two darts, which scared the hammer man down the stage very simply.

Just kidding, he already felt the killing intent, but she was just a woman, he didn't dare to take his own life to fight for it.

The city lord was quite happy, and he left the range of the guards unknowingly and walked to the middle: "I don't know if there is any hero who wants to challenge you, as long as you show your heroic appearance on the stage, the little girl will definitely Will make a promise!"

He spoke impassionedly, without even noticing that the danger was approaching, the man in black held the dart in his hand, just waiting for the right time to shoot it out.

"Be careful!" Bai Yuan couldn't help shouting out, but this seemed to be a sign.

The man in black, who had been very restrained and cautious just now, suddenly yelled, danced exaggeratedly, and at the same time drew a sharp sword from his other hand, and then he shouted as if on purpose: "You guys who claim to be righteous Hypocrites, the leader has returned, and this time he will lead us to slaughter all of you hypocrites!"

His crazy voice caused a series of commotions, the daughter of the city lord called out directly, and the city lord tremblingly wanted to flee to the guards.

But it was too late, seeing that the sharp sword was about to slit the city lord's throat, a person quickly jumped out from the side of the stage, almost flying up.

The man looked particularly leisurely and contented. He deftly picked up the weapon of the man in black, and then it was purely his personal performance time.

I saw that this man was personable, and his movements were extraordinarily chic. He seemed to be open and closed without doing anything, but in fact he was rough but subtle, which was pleasing to the eye.

Bai Yuan stopped in the middle of his run, Xiao Zheng stopped beside him at the right time, then raised his head, Zhao Xuyu was at the back, with a surprised tone: "Liang Xihe, why is he here?"

Yes, this is indeed a bit strange.

Liang Xihe also participated in the encirclement and suppression of the Demon Cult two years ago, but he left very early, before reaching the top of the Tianshan Mountain, and kept hiding until today, when he suddenly came back.

And what made Bai Yuan most unhappy was that Liang Xihe had fanatically pursued Liu Fengrou back then, and said that she would not marry unless she was the only one, but Liu Fengrou ruthlessly rejected him.

"Wow, as expected of Liang Xihe, this move looks so pleasing to the eye. You evil beasts of the Demon Cult, go to hell as soon as possible!" Zhao Xuyu jumped on it as soon as he said, Liang Xi He glanced at her, and the two of them worked together to throw the man in black out of the field.

Yesterday's movements were exceptionally dexterous, even the guy who said he was about to throw off Xiao Zheng was kicked directly under the table by Liang Xihe, and he twitched for a while and then stopped moving.

"I'm really sorry for scaring the city lord and Ling'ai. I didn't expect these demonic wild dogs to be so rampant and daring."

The city lord and his daughter didn't recover for a while. It took only a blink of an eye from being stabbed to Liang Xihe's jumping out. They felt that they were going to die and someone rushed out to protect them the next moment.

It all happened a little too fast.

"Young Master Liang, you did a good job."

Zhao Xuyu clapped his hands happily, Bai Yuan and Xiao Zheng finally came up, but Bai Yuan's expression was a little bit unswerving.
