Chapter 137 February [-]nd, the dragon rises its head

On February [-], the dragon looked up.

"Dragon" refers to the astrology of the seven constellations of the eastern Canglong in the 28 constellations. At the beginning of the first month of mid-spring every year, the "Dragon Horned Star" emerges from the eastern horizon, which is called "seeing the dragon in the field", also known as "the dragon raises its head". .

The appearance and disappearance of the Canglong Qisu correspond to the rainfall. The ancients believed that the dragon was in charge of the rainfall, and the rainfall determined the harvest of the farm.

"Dragon raising its head" marks the growth of yang, the increase of rain, and the vitality of all things.

Since ancient times, people have regarded the Day of the Dragon Raising its Head as a day to pray for good weather, drive away evil spirits and avoid disasters, and bring good luck and luck.

And this day was the day of the decisive battle agreed between Ximen Chuuxue and Zhao Mingyuan.

In fact, the fight between Ximen Chuuxue and Zhao Mingyuan has been circulating in the Jianghu for three years.

Of course, this was leaked out during the Eagle's Nest Project.

However, at that time, the two only had the intention of making an appointment to fight, but did not agree on the time and place.

Now, with the approach of the three-year period, the time and place for the decisive battle agreed by Ximen Chuuxue and Zhao Mingyuan has also been finalized.

Next, just like the decisive battle between Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng, the news of the decisive battle between the two also spread in the world.

On February [-], the dragon raised its head.Zijin Mountain, the top of the sword.

Although there were only twelve short words, all the information about the decisive battle between the two was spread.

The time is naturally the second day of February, the day when the dragon raises its head.

The location is naturally on the top of Zijin Mountain, and the sword battle is a sword contest between two people, and the one who decides is naturally the pinnacle of swordsmanship.

The reason why Zhao Mingyuan chose Zijin Mountain as the duel location was actually after many considerations.

With the conspiracy behind the battle at the top of the Forbidden City back then, if it is set there again, I am afraid that those big inner guards will try their best to stop it.

What's more, setting it there is also suspected of picking up people's teeth.People will only say that Zhao Mingyuan is the second in Ye Gucheng, the lord of Baiyun City.

Back then, Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng initially set the decisive battle location on the top of Zijin Mountain, which was later changed to the top of the Forbidden City.That being the case, then, Zhao Mingyuan set the location of the decisive battle as Zijin Mountain.

The story of Ximen Chuuxue started from Zijin Mountain and will end at Zijin Mountain. This is also a good result.

Let the top of Zijin Mountain witness the end of the legend of the sword god Ximen Chuuxue.

It will also witness the rise of a new generation of legends.

Today is the first day of February, and the drizzle brings the breath of spring.

Zhao Mingyuan came to the capital at this time.

It has been six years in a flash, and it has been six years since the battle at the top of the Forbidden City.

It has been more than six years since Zhao Mingyuan came to Lu Xiaofeng's world.

In the past six years, he has experienced a lot, gained a lot, and met a lot of people.

Now, in this capital, there are naturally many people who want to see him.

Yes, just like the decisive battle between Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng back then, the old scene reappeared, and many casinos set up bets on the outcome of the two.

This is unavoidable.

And Zhao Mingyuan entered the city openly, and openly stayed in the best inn in the capital, which was also the Yuelai Inn he stayed in a few years ago, so his whereabouts were known to the world.

Fortunately, Zhao Mingyuan had thought of this a long time ago, so he transferred a few experts from Wuming Island in advance.This blocked the investigation of various forces.

After all, Zhao Mingyuan is already the owner of the young island, so he still has some rights.

What's more, these masters didn't lose money, and they all bet heavily on Zhao Mingyuan's victory when they arrived in the capital.

After all, they have all seen the duel between Zhao Mingyuan and Gong Jiu, and they are full of confidence in him, and they never believe that Zhao Mingyuan will lose.

Therefore, even if it takes a few days of hard work to run.But compared to the harvest, it is still worth it.Everyone is full of energy.

The news of Zhao Mingyuan's blatant entry into the city quickly spread throughout the capital.

In contrast, there has been no news of Ximen Chuuxue's arrival until now.

You know, tomorrow is the duel between the two of them. Obviously, it's not that Ximen Chuuxue didn't come, but entered the city quietly under his anonymity.

In this comparison, Zhao Mingyuan is obviously more confident.

All of a sudden, the winning rate of Zhao Mingyuan in the major gambling houses soared, and people who bought Zhao Mingyuan's victory flocked to him.

Before, even though Zhao Mingyuan was famous, he was still much worse than Ximen Chuuxue.

What's more, when Ximen Chuuxue fought Ye Gucheng's Forbidden Top, Ximen Chuuxue won a big victory.This has brought him a lot of fans, and also won money for many people.

Therefore, many people expected to bet on Ximen Chuuxue again to make money.

Until now, those who are optimistic about Zhao Mingyuan's victory have gained the upper hand.

Four masters guarded the door, and no idlers could enter.

Although he blocked those messy people, Zhao Mingyuan naturally wanted to meet some people.

For example Mu Taoist, Gongsun Lan, and of course Lu Xiaofeng.

Mu Taoist and Gongsun Lan are naturally on Zhao Mingyuan's side, hoping that he can win.

But Lu Xiaofeng is closer to Ximen Chuuxue, not to mention that he had a bad fight with Zhao Mingyuan before.

However, Lu Xiaofeng wanted the fight between the two of them to be cancelled, just like six years ago, Lu Xiaofeng hoped to stop the battle between Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue.

However, just like Lu Xiaofeng was unable to stop the battle between Ximen Chuixue and Baiyun City Lord Ye Gucheng, this time he is also doomed to be in vain.

Naturally, Lu Xiaofeng couldn't stop this battle.

Zhao Mingyuan looked at Lu Xiaofeng and said: "You should know that you are doomed to be futile this time, so why come here? Can't you see what happened back then? Some things can't be stopped at all."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "I know you are not a pure swordsman."

Zhao Mingyuan said: "That's right, I'm not."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "If that's the case, then why do you want to compete with Ximen Chuuxue? Don't tell me you like the title of number one in the world?"

Zhao Mingyuan said: "You know, I don't care about these things."

After being silent for a while, Zhao Mingyuan continued: "Speaking of which, I actually wanted to fight against the two of them during the Battle of the Forbidden City. However, at that time, I hadn't mastered the art of swordsmanship, so rashly fighting would not only lead to defeat, but also make me laugh. Now, my swordsmanship is on the verge of success. And Ximen Chuuxue must have reached a higher level. I can just meet him for a while."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "So, you think you will win this time."

Zhao Mingyuan looked at Lu Xiaofeng, and replied decisively: "Of course. I will win!"

The powerful self-confidence impacted Lu Xiaofeng's body and mind, and the impact on Lu Xiaofeng was stronger than Ye Gucheng, the lord of Baiyun City back then.

Because he knew that Zhao Mingyuan was not a sword idiot.He is so confident, naturally he has already weighed and determined that he will never lose.

In Lu Xiaofeng's eyes, Zhao Mingyuan is a person who values ​​reality and doesn't care about face.

If he feels that the chances of winning this competition are not high, he is afraid that he will find an excuse to postpone the competition, or even run away incognito.

Since he came here with full confidence, it means that Zhao Mingyuan's strength has grown rapidly in the past three years, and he is already confident that he will win.

Lu Xiaofeng's heart sank, as if he had seen Ximen Chuuxue collapsed into the dirt on the top of Zijin Mountain.
