Chapter 137 February 2nd, the dragon raises its head
On February 2nd, the dragon raised its head.
"Dragon" refers to the seven constellations of the eastern blue dragon among the twenty-eight constellations. Every year, at the beginning of the Mao month in the middle of the spring, the "Dragon and Corner Star" emerges from the eastern horizon, which is called "Seeing the Dragon in the Field", also known as "Dragon Raising Head".
The appearance of the seven constellations of the Canglong dragon corresponds to the rainfall. The ancients believed that the dragon was in charge of the rainfall, and the rainfall determined the farming harvest.
"The dragon raises its head" indicates that the yang energy is born, the rain increases, and all things are full of vitality.
Since ancient times, people have regarded the day when the dragon rises its head as a day to pray for good weather, drive away evil and disasters, and bring good fortune.
And this day was the day of the decisive battle agreed by Ximen Chuxue and Zhao Mingyuan.
In fact, the incident of Ximen Chuxue and Zhao Mingyuan's appointment for battle has been circulating in the world for three years.
Of course, this was leaked when the Eagle Nest plan was first released.
However, the two of them had the intention of a fight at that time, but did not agree on the time and place.
Now, with the arrival of the three-year period, Ximen Chuxue and Zhao Mingyuan have also decided on the time and place for the decisive battle.
Next, just like Ximen Chuxue and Ye Gucheng fought a decisive battle, the news of the two's decisive battle spread to the world.
On February 2nd, the dragon raised its head. Purple Gold Mountain, Sword Head Decision.
Although there are only twelve words, all the information about the two of them fighting to the final battle was also heard.
The time is naturally the second day of the second month, and the day when the dragon raises its head.
The location is naturally at the top of Zijin Mountain, and the sword-top decision is the battle between the two of them. The decision is naturally at the top of the sword.
The reason why Zhao Mingyuan set the duel location as Purple Gold Mountain was actually considered by many parties.
There was the conspiracy behind the battle at the Forbidden City that year. If it was settled there, I was afraid that the big inner guards would try their best to stop it.
Moreover, if you are determined there, you may also be suspicious of picking up people's wisdom. People will only say that Zhao Mingyuan is the second in Ye Gucheng, the lord of Baiyun City.
Ximen Chuxue and Ye Gucheng initially set the decisive battle site on the top of Zijin Mountain, which was later changed to the Forbidden City Top of the Forbidden City. Since that's the case, Zhao Mingyuan set the decisive battle site on the Purple Mountain.
Ximen Chuxue's story begins with Zijin Mountain and will end at Zijin Mountain, which is also a good result.
Let the Purple Gold Mountain witness the end of the legend of the Sword God Ximen Chuxue.
It will also witness the rise of a new generation of legends.
Today is the first day of the second month, 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. It has been six years since the Battle of the Forbidden City.
Zhao Mingyuan has been in this Lu Xiaofeng world for more than six years.
In the past six years, he has experienced a lot, gained a lot, and met many people.
Nowadays, there are naturally many people in this capital who want to see him.
Yes, it was like the decisive battle between Ximen Chuxue and Ye Gucheng back then, the scenes of the past reappeared, and many casinos set up gambling games to bet on the victory or defeat of the two.
This is inevitable.
Zhao Mingyuan entered the city openly and opened up to live in the best inn in the capital. It was also the Yuelai Inn that he had stayed a few years ago. His natural whereabouts are known to the world.
Fortunately, Zhao Mingyuan had thought of this a long time ago, so he transferred several masters from Wuming Island in advance. Only then did he block the inquiries of all forces.
After all, Zhao Mingyuan is already the young island owner, so he still has this little right.
Besides, these masters did not lose money. When they arrived in the capital, they all made heavy bets and beat Zhao Mingyuan to win.
After all, they have all seen the duel between Zhao Mingyuan and Gong Jiu, and they are full of confidence in him and will never believe that Zhao Mingyuan will lose.
So, even if you have to work hard for a few days, it is still worth it compared to the harvest. Everyone is full of energy.
News of Zhao Mingyuan's open entry into the city soon spread throughout the capital.
In comparison, there is no news of Ximen Chuxue coming until now.
You know, tomorrow is the duel between the two of them. Obviously, Ximen Chuxue did not fail to come, but hid his name and quietly entered the city.
This comparison obviously makes Zhao Mingyuan more confident.
The winning rate of Zhao Mingyuan among major gambling shops suddenly increased, and people who bought Zhao Mingyuan to win were flocking to him.
Before, although Zhao Mingyuan was also very famous, he was still much worse than Ximen Chuxue.
What's more, when Ximen Chuxue fought with Ye Gucheng at the top of the Forbidden City, Ximen Chuxue won a great victory. This brought him a lot of fans and won money for many people.
Therefore, many people hope to bet Ximen Chuxue 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 matter how idle they were allowed.
Although it blocked those messy people, Zhao Mingyuan naturally wanted to meet some people.
For example, Mu Dao Ren, Gongsun Lan, and of course Lu Xiaofeng.
Taoist Mu and Gongsun Lan are naturally on Zhao Mingyuan's side, hoping that he can win.
Lu Xiaofeng is even more intimate with Ximen Chuxue, not to mention that she had a bad time with Zhao Mingyuan before.
However, Lu Xiaofeng wanted to cancel the battle between them, just like when Lu Xiaofeng hoped to stop Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuxue's battle six years ago.
However, just as Lu Xiaofeng could not stop Ximen Chuxue from fighting with Baiyun City Lord Ye Gucheng, this time he was destined to be futile.
Lu Xiaofeng naturally couldn't stop this battle.
Zhao Mingyuan looked at Lu Xiaofeng and said, "You should know that you are destined to be in vain this time, so why should you come here to travel? Can't you still see what happened back then? Some things can't be stopped at all."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "I know I am not a pure swordsman."
Zhao Mingyuan said: "No, I'm not."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Since that's the case, why do you want to compete with Ximen Chuxue in the sword? Do you like the name of the world's number one?"
Zhao Mingyuan said: "You know, I don't care about these."
After a little silence, Zhao Mingyuan continued: "Speaking of this, in fact, during the Battle of Forbidden City, I wanted to fight with him. However, when my swordsmanship was not successful, I would not only fail to take action rashly, but also make a laughing joke. Now, my swordsmanship is about to be successful. Ximen Chuxue must have gone up to the next level. It's just a matter of meeting him for a while."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "So, you think you will win this time."
Zhao Mingyuan looked at Lu Xiaofeng and replied firmly: "Of course. I will win!"
The strong confidence hit Lu Xiaofeng's body and mind, and the impact on Lu Xiaofeng was stronger than that of Ye Gucheng, the lord of Baiyun City back then.
Because he knew that Zhao Mingyuan was not a sword crazy. He was so confident that he had already weighed the pros and cons, and he was sure that he would never lose.
In Lu Xiaofeng's eyes, Zhao Mingyuan is a person who values reality but does not care about face.
If he felt that this competition was not likely to win, he was afraid that he would make excuses to postpone the competition, or even escape in anonymous manner.
Since he came with confidence, it means that Zhao Mingyuan's strength has grown rapidly in the past three years and he is confident that he will definitely win.
Lu Xiaofeng's heart had already sunk, as if she had seen Ximen Chuxue lying in the soil on the top of Zijin Mountain.
