"Visible sword and invisible sword?" Liu Ling seemed to realize.

"Ten years ago, the nameless swordsman was carrying a sword, Yanagishita asked, it was for the sword stream. Xie Xuan said, "And there is another kind of person, like me, who cultivates an invisible sword, that is, an air sword." ”

"I see. Liu Ling nodded.

"Yuan Fang, practice sword with me tomorrow, one move and one style, you must keep it in mind. Xie Xuan first instructed Yuan Fang, and then said to Bai Ze: "One day tomorrow, you go to the Hanging Spring Waterfall in the back mountain, and come back in the evening to tell me what you see." ”

"What about Liu Jian, don't I need it anymore?" Bai Ze asked.

"How can a person who learns a sword not have a sword?" Xie Xuan smiled indifferently, "Before you learn the invisible sword, the sword cannot be abandoned." ”

"Okay!" Bai Ze agreed, and then touched his stomach, "Have you eaten dinner?"

"Ah, this is for you!" Caiyun ran to Bai Zeqian, took his right hand, stuffed a green fruit hard candy into his hand, looked at the boy who was about the same height as her, and said, "There are all the children in the village, and the old fairy gave me two, give you one!"

"Thank you, little sister~" Bai Ze grinned, looked at Caiyun's little face as white as glutinous rice dumplings, reached out and pinched it, threw the fruit candy into his mouth, and chewed, "It's so sweet!"

"Hmm!" Caiyun smiled and ran away, "See you tomorrow, I'll go home for dinner, bye!"

"Bye-bye~" Bai Ze said.

Nothing to say one night, the next day.

"Master, I'm going out!" Bai Ze finished breakfast, rushed out of the room with a willow sword, and went straight to the back mountain.

"Well, you don't have to come back at noon, you can eat by yourself. Xie Xuan sat in the courtyard drinking tea with Liu Ling and asked him, "Do you know how to play Go?"

The old boy was terrified, and he didn't know what was going on. Liu Ling said.

"That's it," Xie Xuan saw Chen Yuanfang go out and said, "I'll teach Yuanfang to practice swords first, and then I'll teach you to play chess, how about it?"

"Listen to me. Liu Ling nodded.

Xie Xuan took a sip of wine, put the gourd on the stone table under the ancient locust tree, stood up, and motioned for Yuan Fang to step forward: "Come, do your homework every day in the future, raise the sword in your right hand, level with your shoulders, and walk with your legs for an hour." ”

"Yes!" Yuan Fang did not doubt and complied.

"Okay, after an hour, I will teach you the Daomen Thirty-six Tiangang Sword Technique, how much you can comprehend depends on creation. Xie Xuan said, picked up the wine jug, hung it on his waist, and said to Liu Ling: "You go with me to cross the river to find a side to level the bluestone and make a chessboard." Then pick some black and white pebbles and make chess pieces. ”

"Good. Liu Ling followed Xie Xuan out of the courtyard and walked for more than ten zhang, but after all, he couldn't help it, and asked, "Dare to ask Daozun, Xiaoyou's sword last night was really useless?"

"Extremely talented, but evil. Xie Xuan commented, shaking his head with a smile.

"That Dao Venerable thinks, what are the qualifications of this son of Yuan Fang?" Liu Ling asked again.

"No surprises, okay. Xie Xuan said.

"Dao Zun thinks that where can Yuan Fang's cultivation path go?" Liu Ling thought for a moment and asked.

"Earlier, Bai Ze asked me a similar question. Xie Xuan said, standing on a cane, and said, "He asked me, who can reach the peak of the Heavenly Dao among the geniuses and mediocre people in the sky." ”

"How does Dao Zun answer?" Liu Ling's heart moved, his eyes lit up slightly, and he asked.

"Is it important?" Xie Xuan said, sighing leisurely, "Heavenly Dao Nineteenth, who can really be sure that he can seize that glimmer of heavenly opportunity to prove the Heavenly Dao?

"I see. Liu Ling was relieved.

In the evening, Xie Xuan and Liu Ling were playing Go in the courtyard of the village chief's house, and the evening breeze gently sent the fragrance of tea.

Bai Ze stepped on the sunset, whistled and blew to the chaimen, seeing that Yuan Fang was still practicing his sword one move at a time, the sweat had already wet his whole body, his legs and hands were trembling faintly, and he was still gritting his teeth and insisting.

"Are you back?" Xie Xuan heard the whistle stop and asked Bai Ze, "What did you see in the back mountain?"

"The Hanging Spring Waterfall is like a silver dragon. Bai Ze replied.

"Hmm. Xie Xuan nodded and said, "I'll go to the back mountain tomorrow to see again, and come back in the evening to tell me what you see." ”

"Okay. As soon as Bai Ze heard the master's tone, he knew that this answer was not what he wanted.

"Yuan Fang, you also take a break and practice again tomorrow. Xie Xuan said again, "Wash it up and get ready for dinner." ”

"Okay!" Yuan Fang stopped, stuck Liu Jian on the ground, and gasped for breath, sweat like running water, and his eyes were stained with salty sweat, and he was in pain.

"Bai Ze!" At the other end of the fence, Caiyun beckoned to him, holding five green onion cakes, "My mother said let me give it to you, just out of the pot, it's fragrant!"

She tiptoed and handed the green onion cake over the fence.

Bai Ze ran over, took the freshly cooked flatbread, smelled it, and praised it: "It's so fragrant! Caiyun's mother's craftsmanship is really good, and when Caiyun grows up in the future, she will definitely be as ingenious as her mother." ”

"Hmph, of course!" Caiyun was overjoyed and said, "Then when I grow up, will you still be in the village?" I heard from the village chief grandfather that you and the old fairy have traveled all over the world, and I don't know when you will leave Liuzhuang. ”

As she spoke, the little girl became a little sad.

Bai Ze stretched out his hand to silently the little girl's head and said, "What's the matter? Wait for me to become a great cultivator, walk against the wind, and travel three thousand miles a day! It's not easy to come back to Liuzhuang and eat the green onion cake you made?"

"Wow, that's so powerful!" Caiyun looked at Bai Ze with admiration, blushing slightly, and said, "That Brother Yuanfang has cultivated to Dacheng, can we also fly with the sword and go to your house to find you?"

"Absolutely. Bai Ze said, beckoned Yuan Fang, and shouted: "Did you hear me, Yuan Fang! In order for me to be able to eat such fragrant green onion cakes in the future, we both have to work hard!"

Chen Yuanfang smiled firmly and nodded, "Hmm!"

"Then I'll go home, see you tomorrow!" Caiyun trotted all the way again, and went home for dinner.

The next day, Bai Ze still went out early in the morning and returned to Liuzhuang in the evening. When he pushed the door, Yuan Fang was still practicing his sword, and he was not as tired as yesterday.

"What did you see?" Xie Xuan asked him directly.

"Just a waterfall. Bai Ze replied.

"I'll see tomorrow. Xie Xuan took a sip of wine and said.

"Good. Bai Ze nodded.

On the third day, Bai Ze lay on the big bluestone by the side of the Houshan Water Pool, bathed in the morning sun, listened to the chirping of birds, and watched the white clouds and dogs.

"The day before yesterday, I said that waterfalls are like silver dragons, but then I reflected on the fact that cultivators should not be deceived by the appearance of things, but should go straight to the essence. So yesterday I said that a waterfall is a waterfall, but why is the master still dissatisfied?" Bai Ze was puzzled, "Could it be that what I see should not be a waterfall, but water? Water is really more back to the truth than the word waterfall, but is this the answer that the master wants?"

He was so engrossed in his thoughts that he didn't notice someone tiptoeing closer.

"Hey, Bai Ze, what are you thinking?" Caiyun saw her coming for a long time, Bai Ze was still stunned, lying on the big bluestone, supporting his chin with both hands: "I see Brother Yuan Fang practicing swords hard every day, why don't you practice, watch the waterfall here every day, what's so beautiful about the waterfall?"

Bai Ze suddenly came back to his senses, turned over, and said, "It was the master who asked me to see it, and then I went back every evening and told him what I saw." ”

"Ah, that's right. Caiyun understood.

"Caiyun, what does this waterfall look like?" Bai Ze suddenly asked her, and felt that it was wrong, so he changed his words: "No, you look at this waterfall, what is it?"

"A waterfall is a waterfall. Caiyun was asked in a fog, and said suspiciously: "It's just Bai Ze, I'm very strange, I look at the waterfall every day, can I practice the sword like Brother Yuan Fang?"

"Sword practice?" Bai Ze was stunned for a moment, and finally realized that something was wrong.

Shizun said that day that he would teach two people to practice swords, but why did he only teach Yuan Fang alone, but not himself?

Kyushu Sword Emperor, "One Finger Breaks the Heavenly Machine" Xie Xuan will never do something meaningless, he lets himself watch the waterfall every day, what if this matter itself is teaching himself to practice swords?!

"Ah, I understand!" Bai Ze suddenly realized, stood up, laughed, hugged Caiyun, lifted her up to the bluestone, hugged her waist and turned around three times, and happily kissed her on the cheek, "Caiyun, thanks to you! I figured it out, Shizun let me see the waterfall, in fact, I asked me to see the sword! I understand, I understand!"

"Oops!" Caiyun was startled by Bai Ze, and struggled to push him away, but unexpectedly, the boy who was about her height had so much strength that he didn't move at all.

"Let me go!" shouted Caiyun.

"Okay!" Bai Ze put her down and said, "To thank you, I invite you to eat grilled fish! If it weren't for you, it might have been a long time before I could figure out this question that Master asked me." ”

"Hmph, don't!" Caiyun said, pretending to be angry and clasping her hands, "The grilled fish you cooked, where is the delicious food cooked by your mother?"

"It's guaranteed to be not bad!" Bai Ze swore an oath, "You must eat, this is my gratitude to you, if you don't eat, you just don't care about my heart!"

"Oh well. Caiyun reluctantly agreed, beckoning to Bai Ze, "You come here." ”

"What are you doing?" Bai Ze leaned over.

Caiyun was taken by surprise, and also kissed Bai Ze on the cheek, and then said: "Just now, you took advantage of my inattention, kiss me! Now I'm kissing back, don't suffer, hehe." ”

Bai Ze: "......" said that no matter what you think, you will suffer, but you don't dare to say it.

In the evening, Bai Ze stepped on the sunset again and returned to Liuzhuang. Xie Xuan and Liu Ling were still playing chess, Yuan Fang was still practicing swords, and the village chief was busy cooking dinner in the kitchen.

"What did you see today?" Xie Xuan asked.

"What I see today is a sword. Bai Ze said, "The Hanging Spring Waterfall is like a sword coming from the sky." ”

Xie Xuan smiled and said, "Okay." You can understand this in three days, which is good. Then I ask you," he pointed to the locust tree beside him, "What is this locust tree?"

"It's a sword. Bai Ze replied.

"Hanging Spring Waterfall, in the shape of a sword. The locust tree has no sword shape, why is it a sword?" Xie Xuan asked.

"Hanging Spring Waterfall, with the agility of the sword. This tree has the tranquility of a sword. Therefore, it is also a sword. Bai Ze said.

"Is that everything, everything in the world is a sword?" Xie Xuan asked again.

"Yes. Bai Ze said, "Everything is a sword." ”

"Well, qualified. Xie Xuan said, "Tonight, go to the back mountain with me and teach the teacher a sword." ”
