Chapter 396 Haoran Zhengqi
"Oh, I told the senior at Zhengqi Academy about what happened that night. He said he would send someone to the ruined temple to verify. I think they will give it to us after they have verified it. It’s a bounty.”
Gu Qingyi said, “Don’t worry, Zhengqi Academy is a prestigious school, and it will definitely not break its promise.”
Ma Lu just asked, “Then you. Did you show him the arrest warrant? "
"Well... I originally wanted to take it out, but at that time, the Beggar Gang lost the lotus bowl, and the other two from the Iron Clothes Gate The arrester is also on his way to Yuchang County.”
Gu Qingyi said, "I was worried that they would meet with the predecessors, so they lied and said that I have no sect and that all my martial arts are inherited from my family."
After listening to Gu Qingyi's words, Ma Lu realized that he was a bit wrong. Academy.
After all, anyone who hears that a young man with no sect who came out of nowhere to kill Yan Wuji, the big devil who was born in the Diamond Academy, will be suspicious at first reaction.
Even if Yan Wuji’s widow and daughter testified, Yan Wuji was a cruel person. It is estimated that Zhengqi Academy was worried that he would abandon his wife and daughter and fake his death in this way, so they sent people there again. Verify.
But now that Malu is here, this is no longer a problem.
Ma Lu directly asked Gu Qingyi to take him to find people from Zhengqi Academy.
The Beggar Gang is about to change its leader. Now Yuchang County is full of people from all walks of life who come to watch the ceremony. The inns in the city are already full, and those who come late can only rent huts outside the city.
But famous sects like Zhengqi Academy definitely don’t have such troubles. Their accommodation has been arranged in advance.
Prison Ward Shi Wenjiao and a group of disciples lived in the mansion of a wealthy family in the city.
Gu Qingyi explained their identity and purpose to the concierge, and was quickly taken in.
However, they only saw a few disciples from Zhengqi Academy in the front yard. The leader told them that Shi Jianyuan was meeting an honored guest in the backyard and asked them to wait here.
So Ma Lu and Gu Qingyi sat on the stone bench in the front yard and watched the disciples from Zhengqi Academy practicing calligraphy.
Zhengqi Academy is different from other Jianghu sects. In addition to practicing martial arts, its disciples also have to study knowledge and master the Six Arts of the Gentleman.
In the words of another dimension, it belongs to the comprehensive development of moral, intellectual, physical, artistic and labor, and instantly beats other sects in terms of comprehensive quality.
And what’s even more terrifying is that even though they have so much to learn, the martial arts of the disciples of Zhengqi Academy have not fallen behind. There are an endless stream of masters under the sect. The dean, Song Qingzhou, is even known as the top five in the world. Shocking the Wulin.
And the calligraphy of these disciples is obviously not bad. The characters they write are both square and round, straight and strong, and have the style of everyone.
One of them wrote the fastest. After finishing writing, he threw the brush and said with a smile, "Senior brothers, I accept it."
The other three ignored him and still ignored him. He wrote his own words slowly, and only the disciple who received Ma Lu and Gu Qingyi before laughed and cursed.
"The teacher asked us to practice calligraphy in order to hone our character. It's better for you. The more we practice, the rougher our temper will become."
The scolded young disciple scratched his head, "We have already practiced so much. I’ve been talking for an hour, don’t you think it’s boring? Why don’t we come and learn from each other and stretch our muscles?”
However, the three people did not move at all when they heard the words, "Go, go, go, we haven't finished writing yet, you can play by yourself."
The young disciple was a little disappointed, but soon he took a look aside Ma Lu and Gu Qingyi came forward and cupped their fists.
"I'm Qin Ruhai from Zhengqi Academy. I heard that you two are the heroes who killed Yan Wuji. Their skills must be extraordinary. I wonder if you can give me some advice?"
The two men from the Iron Clothes Sect. The famous arrester is now in the city. Gu Qingyi has made up his mind to keep his head down and not do anything if he can, lest his identity be exposed, so he will not agree. Malu originally didn't want to play a useless card, but when he glanced at the other three disciples of Zhengqi Academy and saw that they were all calm, he realized that this competition might not be a coincidence.
After thinking about it for a while, he guessed the purpose of Zhengqi Academy.
They probably wanted to use this competition to find out their background and see if they had the ability to kill Yan Wuji.
Therefore, even if this competition was rejected, there was a high probability that there would be other competitions later. Moreover, Malu was in urgent need of the bounty right now, so he decided to show his hand and nodded, "Okay, let's do it."
Qin Ruhai didn't expect Ma Lu to be so cheerful. He was slightly startled, but then he smiled and said, "Brother Ma is a guest, so you can take the lead."
Ma Lu didn't talk nonsense when he heard this. , raised his sword and stabbed Qin Ruhai, and then the card game unfolded. The two of them each took a few steps back and stood facing each other.
Malu made the Songxi Kuai Sword starting position, while Qin Ruhai stood sideways on the opposite side, lifted his robe, and held a No. 1 scholar pen across his chest.
Ma Lu set the battle mode to discussion and made it public, and then he and Qin Ruhai each drew 3 cards from the card library.
Immediately afterwards, Malu, as the first attacking party, drew 2 more cards.
Looking down at the cards in his hand, Ma Lu still started with the Little Changchun Kung Fu, adding 6 points of infuriating energy to himself first.
The moment he saw the Little Changchun Kung, Qin Ruhai's eyes flashed with an imperceptible look of contempt, and even his posture was a bit slack. However, after he saw the number of layers in the upper left corner, he paused slightly. Got some energy.
"Hey, Brother Ma is so young, I didn't expect that his internal strength could be so advanced."
Ma Lu agreed casually, "Well, I practiced Kung Fu relatively early."
After that, he played another A card, but it is a protective card - golden cup and jade drink. This is the second form of Qian Jin San Zhi Gong.
Ma Lu did not use the stronger Demon Subduing Vajra Kung Fu because this martial arts from the Vajra Academy was a bit eye-catching.
Since Zhengqi Academy is chasing Yan Wuji, it should also have some understanding of the latter's martial arts. Therefore, Ma Lu temporarily adjusted the deck before the start of the battle and replaced the Demon Subduer with Qianjin Sandu Gong. Diamond Kung Fu.
In terms of defensive ability, the Thousand Gold Scattering Skill is much inferior to the Demon Subduing Vajra Skill, but it also has its own advantages.
Ma Lu spent 2 points of infuriating energy to activate the additional effect of Jinzun Yuyin, and got 6 points of parry, as well as an effect that restored 1 point of infuriating energy after being injured.
Since the first mover could not attack, Malu chose to end his turn after playing these two cards.
Then it was Qin Ruhai's turn. Qin Ruhai yawned while touching the cards. He didn't stop when he touched the cards in his hand and threw them away.
——Song of righteousness.
This is the mentality of Zhengqi Academy.
Qin Ruhai has only cultivated to the second level. Each song of righteousness can provide him with 5 points of true energy, as well as the first level of awe-inspiring state.
Qin Ruhai explained to Ma Lu, "The awe-inspiring state can strengthen the effect of the cards in my hand. Each layer of the awe-inspiring state can add 1 point of power to my attack cards and 1 point of parry to the protective cards. The awe-inspiring state can It can be accumulated infinitely and always exists on the field."
