As an old man who was familiar with Wuxia novels, Fangzheng certainly knew how to become famous in the shortest time possible.
First of all, you had to have an unusual weapon to be easily remembered by others.
It was best not to use common weapons like demon-headed sabers or longswords. Throughout the history of Wuxia novels, eight out of ten famous martial artists would use custom-made weapons. Let's not talk about the Golden Snake Sword or the Dragon Saber, which was too high a requirement, but things like judge pens, crutches, flying knives … were the most iconic.
After all, not everyone could be like Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gu Cheng and report the attributes of their weapons before going into battle.
In fact, it was the same in modern society. Who would look at the attributes when changing equipment? They would look at the appearance first before looking at the attributes, right?
Therefore, appearance was more important than anything else.
Fangzheng learned from his predecessors and took a fan as his weapon. It was a very eye-catching white jade fan. The entire fan was carved out of pure jade, and there were mountains, rivers, and beauties painted on it. It was obviously extraordinary.
With an eye-catching weapon, the next step was naturally to look for achievements. It was just like in online games, no matter how eye-catching your equipment was, you had to rely on PVP to become famous. Fangzheng naturally did not hold back. He went on a sightseeing tour and killed a group of bandits along the way. Of course, with the social security of the Great Han Dynasty, the underworld sects in Wuxia novels definitely did not exist. After all, if you wanted to set up a sect, the court would definitely first send people to check the procedures and pay taxes, and they would also require you to abide by the law.
What? You call yourself an underworld? You don't want to abide by the law? You don't want to pay taxes?
Guards, bring the army to serve you.
Under such circumstances, the underworld sects naturally could not make a name for themselves. But just like how there were some famous criminals in modern society, there were also some powerful criminals in this era of martial arts. They were either secretive, or ordinary officials did not have the ability to arrest them. For such people, Fangzheng naturally took care of them all with a smile.
Not only that, Fangzheng showed no mercy to these heinous criminals. Not only did he cripple their martial arts, he also completely crippled them. Therefore, for many people in the underworld, Fangzheng was also "infamous".
As the saying goes, good news never goes out, but bad news travels a thousand miles. Fangzheng made a name for himself in the shortest time possible with his unique weapon and brutal attitude towards the people in the underworld.
As a result, almost all the people in the Southern Wulin knew of the existence of such a handsome and elegant jade-faced playboy.
That was why it was said that to become famous, acting cool and acting fierce were indispensable.
When Fangzheng arrived at Guiyang, the annual Southern Wulin Martial Arts Competition was being held here. Of course, this was similar to the modern cooking competitions. It was organized by the people, and the government watched the show. Of course, the winner naturally had a prize, but for Fangzheng, these things were obviously not attractive.
The reason why he came to participate in the Southern Martial Arts Circle Convention was naturally because of the Guardian Fairies. In fact, it should be said that many people who came here this time were like this. It was rumored that the Guardian Goddess would also participate in this Southern Martial Arts Circle Convention, which was also natural.
After all, the rumors about the Guardian Goddess were very popular, but only a few people had actually seen the Guardian Goddess, which made many onlookers quite curious and interested. Now that there was such a chance to see how beautiful the rumored Guardian Goddess was, it was quite attractive to most of the onlookers.
When he walked into the restaurant, most of the discussions he heard were related to this.
"Hey, do you think that the so-called Guardian Goddess will really attend this Martial Arts Circle Convention?"
"Of course, this is what Ghost Blade Wang the Fifth said himself. He saw the guardian with his own eyes in the house of Li Tianming, the leader of the Southern Wulin World. Li Tianming also told Wang the matter."
"Hey, this is interesting. Maybe the prize of this Martial Arts Circle Convention is that Heshibi."
"Are you stupid? Even if that thing is given to you, do you dare to take it? It is said that the person who gets the Heshibi will get the world. Are you trying to usurp the throne? "
"Ha, how can I be so stupid? But rumor has it that there is a Shihuang Divine Kung Fu in the Heshibi. I can learn the kung fu and then give the Heshibi to the imperial court. Or, if I can get the Heshibi, I can just give it to the imperial court. Maybe I can get an official position. Even if I can't, I can get some martial arts manuals or something, right? "
"Hahaha, people like you will definitely not get the Heshibi."
"I'm just saying …."
While listening to the martial artists around him talking, Fangzheng also drank his wine proudly. That's right, this was the real thought of most martial artists. At present, the Great Han Dynasty was rich and the people were strong. Even in the most barren places, people could at least have a fixed residence and had no lack of food and clothing. Under such circumstances, who would want to rebel? Wouldn't that be stupid?
Hahaha, those bald donkeys probably think of the Great Han Dynasty as the barbarians in the west. They have no idea that the gap between the two was not just a matter of one or two hundred years …
However, at this moment, someone around them spoke up.
"By the way, did you know? This time, there's a sect called Jingnian Monastery that's also participating in the Martial Arts Conference. "
"Jingnian Monastery? What's that place? "
"I'm not too sure about that. I've only seen those people once. They're dressed quite strangely, and they're all bald …"
"Hahahaha, that's indeed strange."
I see.
Hearing this, Fangzheng silently put down his wine glass, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. Sure enough, these bald donkeys still haven't changed.
They had obviously discovered that it was very difficult to infiltrate the Great Han Dynasty through religion, so this group of people turned to a roundabout way to save the country, trying to enter the Great Han Dynasty through martial arts sects. After all, the examination of martial arts sects was looser than that of religions, and it was easy to obtain permission. Based on the way these Buddhist bald donkeys did things, they could tell the outside world that they were a martial arts sect that cultivated one's moral character, then close the door and chant scriptures and cultivate.
After all, the internal affairs of the sect belonged to the category of privacy. As long as they didn't hold anything like a blood sacrifice for the living, the imperial court wouldn't be able to interfere.
'Damn it, these bald donkeys are really like rats, crawling into any hole they can find. F * ck!'
Fangzheng had almost guessed the other party's goal. They wanted to leak the news that the Guardian Fairy was going to participate in the Southern Martial Arts Conference, then attract the attention of all the martial artists, and let the Jingnian Monastery appear. As long as the Jingnian Monastery performed well in this Martial Arts Conference, they would definitely be able to increase their reputation.
'But since I know about it, how can I let them succeed?'
Thinking of this, the corners of Fangzheng's mouth curled up, revealing a smile.
'Just you wait, I'll make you bald donkeys go home crying during this Martial Arts Conference!'
However, just as this thought flashed through Fangzheng's mind, a wine pot suddenly fell from the sky and smashed directly on the table in front of Fangzheng, completely knocking over the wine and snacks in front of Fangzheng. At the same time, an angry roar came from behind.
"How dare you insult my master! I think you must be tired of living!"
Fangzheng silently turned his head and saw a few young martial artists in white confronting a man who was dressed in rags but had a majestic figure. The latter looked like a woodcutter who chopped firewood in the mountains, but he carried a long stick on his back. It seemed that he was also a martial artist. At this moment, facing the roar of the martial artists in white, the ragged man also laughed.
"Am I wrong? Your master was blinded by lust and was actually toyed with by that kind of woman. How stupid. You guys are the same. Being deceived by a woman's flowery words is not something to be proud of. You guys are disciples of famous sects, but now you look no different from naive sheep. "
"How dare you, thief!"
Hearing this, one of the martial artists in white could not help but pull out his sword.
"Let me, Quick Sword Liu Tao, experience …"
"Swoosh — — —!!"
However, before he finished speaking, a white light suddenly flashed between the two, tearing a gap in the entire floor and the wall. The piercingly cold sword energy also made both of them change their expressions and retreat. Then, they looked in the direction of the white sword energy.
"Who interfered?!"
"… … …"
Under everyone's gaze, Fangzheng silently stood up and stared at both sides coldly.
"I don't care why you guys are fighting, but I want to know which bastard threw the wine jug!"
Damn it, I can't even have a drink in peace?!
"Ugh … …"
Looking at the wine jug that smashed on Fangzheng's table, the martial artists in white looked a little embarrassed. Previously, when they heard the burly man slandering their master, they picked up the wine jug and threw it at him out of displeasure. However, the burly man dodged it, and both sides then quarreled. As for where the wine jug landed after being dodged, they did not care at all.
But now … … …
"Who are you?"
However, there would always be a few iron-headed people in this world. The martial artist in white snorted and looked at Fangzheng.
"We still have things to settle with him. We'll talk about your troubles later. It's just a jug of wine, it's not like we can't afford it!"
Hey!? So what if you're in the right?
Hearing this, Fangzheng's expression darkened, and the man behind the martial artist in white also had a change of expression.
"Senior, this … …"
"Swoosh — —!"
However, just as he opened his mouth …
A white light flashed in front of him, followed by a muffled groan. The martial artist in white who spouted arrogant words flew out and hit the wall next to him.
"Senior!"
"Senior!!"
Seeing that the martial artist in white was sent flying, the other disciples hurriedly surrounded him. The martial artist in white also stood up with their help, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and glared at Fangzheng.
"You despicable person, how dare you sneak attack?"
"Who sneak attacked? I did it right in front of you. It's your own slow reaction, you're as stupid as a pig, alright? "
Fangzheng snorted coldly. Following that, he opened his fan with a "Pa" sound. Upon hearing Fangzheng's words, the white-shirted martial artist was infuriated. He unsheathed the sword at his waist.
"Alright, then let me experience your skills!"
