Chapter 58: In front of the courtyard

I don’t know if the wine chess layman felt that no one would break his illusion array. Those cold arrows might just be used to scare away some people who came to cut bamboo. Lin Chen and others broke through the formation and walked forward, but they never encountered any traps again.

Finally, they stopped, and a quiet villa came into their eyes in the bamboo forest not far away.

"Finally arrived!" Mu Jiawang breathed a sigh of relief. Although Lin Chen said repeatedly, "It's okay", he did not have good martial arts like Lin Chen and Li Xiaoran. Along the way, he always had to beware of the cold arrows that suddenly flew out from somewhere. He was really a reminder to leave.

"I want to see what skills does this wine chess layman who is known as "the wonderful hand casting green eyebrows" have?" Li Xiaoran strode forward. Although their Tiangong Pavilion is not famous for casting swords, nor is it mainly engaged in swords, everyone is in this industry and always has a mentality of wanting to compare.

"Tu tu tu..." Li Xiaoran knocked on the gate of the courtyard.

No one answered?

Li Xiaoran knocked again.

"Isn't anyone here?" Lin Chen said.

"Wait a little longer." Mu Jiawang said. He was not very interested, but he finally got here. If he just turned around, he would definitely not want to.

After a long time, with a "creaking" sound, the door was opened in a small gap, and a little boy poked out from the gap and looked out. When he saw Lin Chen and others standing outside the door, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes and asked, "Are you?"

Mu Jiawang, who was standing in front of the gate, bowed and said, "We three brothers came to visit Mr. Qi in view of our reputation. Please inform us."

Jiuqi Layman's real name is Qi Guitian, and the title "Jiqi Layman" is his own name, and it can also be said to be the third name besides the "character" given by his elders.

Lin Chen and others came to visit, and they had some special mentions in terms of titles.

If you directly call him "Qi Guitian", it would inevitably be a bit impolite. If you call him "Jiuqi Layman", it is not impossible, but in comparison, the title "Mr. Qi" is a ceremony for the younger generation, which will always make people feel more favorable.

The little boy's eyes fell on the three of them, his lips moved slightly, his eyes flashed, and he said, "My master said, no one will be seen. If you come to ask for a sword, I advise you to calm down as soon as possible and go back to wherever you come!"

Li Xiaoran frowned, and the boy's words made him feel a little uncomfortable.

They were not here to ask for swords, but they wanted to see how wonderful this so-called "wonderful hand casting green edge" was. So when Mu Jiawang called him "Mr. Qi", he did not object. After all, he was a senior in the martial arts world, so it was nothing to be polite, but what was the tone of this kid?

Mu Jiawang was not angry and continued to bow and said, "I misunderstood my little brother. The three of us did not come to ask for swords, but heard about Mr. Qi's name for a long time. Recently, I heard that Mr. Qi actually lived in Jingzhou, so I came to visit him. I just wanted to meet Mr. Qi and had no other thoughts."

"No!" The boy immediately shook his head and said firmly, "My master is not seen, you can leave quickly! If you are entangled at this door again, don't blame me for driving him away!"

Mu Jiawang wanted to say something, but Li Xiaoran stepped forward and said, "My elder brother said that we just came to visit me, not asking for swords, and we didn't ask you to do anything, so we couldn't meet each other. Besides, even if your master doesn't want to meet, can't you speak well? Do you still want to do it? I want to see, how do you do it?"

Li Xiaoran said, and his left hand fell on the hilt of the sword at his waist, which immediately scared the little boy's face to change. But even so, the little boy still said firmly: "If it doesn't work, it won't work. You can go quickly!"

"You..." Li Xiaoran was about to say something, but Lin Chen patted his shoulder and said, "Wait a minute, look at his face, something is wrong!"

From the beginning, Lin Chen saw the little boy's expression of being reluctant to speak when he opened the door, and he felt something was wrong. He always felt that the little boy was afraid, and this fear did not stem from Li Xiaoran's desire to draw his sword.

Why do you say so?

Because Li Xiaoran looks like a handsome young man, let alone he has not drawn his sword yet, even if he has drawn his sword, even before he can make a move, even Xiaoyue'er's girl can't be scared. How could he scare a child who is following the sword-making master?

It would be as ridiculous to say that a child who was following the sword-making master would be afraid of swords, just as ridiculous as saying that an apprentice who was following the butcher would be afraid of killing pigs.

When Li Xiaoran heard Lin Chen say this, he really felt something was wrong when he looked at this little boy again.

Even if this Jiuqi layman is a top sword-making master in the world, wouldn’t he be afraid of offending others if he indulged his disciples to speak like this?

"Little brother, what's going on?" Mu Jiawang asked the little boy.

The little boy's lips were closed, and he stopped talking because the door blocking in front of him was slowly opened.

Only a slight "squeak" sounded in front of the quiet courtyard gate. Lin Chen and others saw that there was a person with a face covering standing behind Xiaotong, and the sword blade in his hand was pressing behind Xiaotong.

"I said I'll leave quickly..." Xiao Tong sighed. He looked at Lin Chen and others sympathetically, only to feel that there were three more unjust dead ghosts here today.

The masked man smiled and said, "Originally, our poster was very merciful. Today we want to kill less people. Just drive you away, but I didn't expect that if you have a way in heaven, you don't go, but you can break in! Since that's the case, come in, this gate leads to the Huangquan Road, I'll send you a ride!"

He said, his tone was already very loud. He suddenly kicked the boy away with one foot, and at the same time he moved his wrist and set his sword towards Li Xiaoran who was standing in front.

"Be careful!" Mu Jiawang exclaimed.

Li Xiaoran had already moved the moment the other party drew the sword. Although he did not draw the sword, he pulled the two small ropes tied to his waist on the scabbard with force. Then he turned his wrist, grabbed the hilt of the sword with his left hand and the end of the scabbard with his right hand, and pushed it horizontally in front of him. With a "bang" sound, he blocked the other party's sword!
