in the hut.

Zhang Ru held a glass of water in his hand and stared at the water in the cup.

After being silent for a long time, he suddenly sighed lightly, then drank all the water in the cup, and looked at the old man in front of him: "Brother Wen, what you said, I also thought about it, but Xuan'er is still too young and has no power to protect himself, I don't worry about him!"

The old man thought for a while and said, "Brother Zhang, what you said is not unreasonable, but the Human Emperor Palace has secretly started to look for the two of us, you have to do it as soon as possible." Brother Zhang, with your strength, I think it's no problem to teach him self-defense skills. ”

"This is naturally no problem, but I don't want to teach too much, I'm just a pathfinder, his way, if he wants to go by himself, how to go? Zhang Ru said.

"If he can go on, it will not be in vain that we chose him. Brother Zhang, only when we return to the Human Emperor Palace can we have greater strength to help him. The old man drank a glass of water, looked at Zhang Ru and said, "And now, it's not time to go back." I'm in Lingyuan in the Zhongnan Mountain Range, if you think about it, you can come to me" After speaking, the old man got up and prepared to leave.

Zhang Ru suddenly looked at him and smiled: "Wen Yan, you are still as arrogant as when you were young, you dare to go to Lingyuan!"

Wen Yan was stunned for a moment, then looked back at Zhang Ru and smiled: "If you don't go down, what are you afraid of." Hahahaha......" After saying that, he laughed, turned around and disappeared in place.

Zhang Ru got up, walked to the door, looked at the sky, and sighed without sighing.

"Grandpa! I'm back!" Suddenly, a bright voice came. When Zhang Ru heard this, he smiled, looking for prestige, Zhang Xuan was running towards him.

"Xuan'er. Zhang Ru picked him up, turned around and walked towards the house.

............

The next day.

Zhang Xuan got up very early, washed up a little, and went out with a wooden sword.

When I came to Qinglian Valley, the valley was still the same green grass, and the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant.

Zhang Xuan put the sword on the stone table, walked to a bluestone slab next to the pool, opened his arms, and greedily breathed the fresh air in the valley. After a while, Zhang Xuan looked in the direction of the trail and smiled inadvertently, "It's been a long time, Sister Qing'er should be coming soon!"

He got up and walked to the stone table, when he suddenly looked at the table, and there was a piece of paper under the kettle, which he did not notice when he came. He picked up the paper, which read: Brother Zhang Xuan, Qing'er has gone to the Southern Sword Sect, but you can go to the sect to find me.

Zhang Xuan raised his head: "Southern Sword Sect, go back and ask grandpa." ”

He looked at the table again, and beside the cup was a white jade pendant, the size of a thumb, curved like a crescent moon.

He picked up the jade pendant and carefully observed it, "Sister Qing'er's things, I must go to her and return the things to her!" As he spoke, Zhang Xuan picked up his sword and turned around to leave, but when he just turned around to leave, he suddenly stopped.

"Grandpa!" In front, Zhang Ru was walking towards him.

"Grandpa!" Zhang Xuan hurriedly ran over. Pull him to the stone table and sit down.

"Xuan'er, I'm in such a hurry, but I have something to say to my grandfather!" Zhang Ru sat down, pulled Zhang Xuan's arm and said.

"Grandpa, let me ask you, do you know where the Southern Sword Sect is?" Zhang Xuan looked at his grandfather and asked.

"Grandpa knows, but Xuan'er, why are you asking this?" Zhang Ru said.

"I have a friend named Qing'er, she went to the Southern Sword Sect, and she asked me to look for her. With that, Zhang Xuan took out the paper and the white jade pendant.

Zhang Ru picked up the paper and looked at it, frowning, as if he was thinking about something. Because this kind of paper is not something that ordinary people can afford.

When he picked up the jade pendant, his eyes lit up, and he said in his heart: "This ...... This is the yang pendant of yin and yang, Xuan'er, you really picked up a big bargain. It's really a loser, and he actually gave away the treasure easily. ”

The next moment, Zhang Ru suddenly said: "No, as far as I know, there are only two pairs of this Yin Yang Pei in the world, one of which Xuan'er's parents once obtained by accident, and another pair is in ...... In the demon clan, the legend is that it is the treasure of the demon clan, enshrined in the demon king's palace, how can it appear here, is it lost outside, and it was obtained. ”

Zhang Ru looked at Zhang Xuan and said, "Xuan'er, where did you get this jade pendant?"

"Qing'er left it. Zhang Xuan replied.

"It seems that the identity of this little girl is not simple. Zhang Ru looked at him, "Since it is in your hands, it is a blessing and a curse, and it is also your fate!"

"Grandpa, I don't understand what you're saying. Zhang Xuan looked puzzled.

Zhang Ru put the jade pendant in his hand, "It's nothing, Xuan'er, you have to take good care of this jade pendant, really?"

"Well, got it, grandpa. Grandpa, you haven't told me where the Southern Sword Sect is?" Zhang Xuan asked again.

"Okay, grandpa said, this Southern Sword Sect is a big sect, just on the Xuanyun Mountain in the south. Zhang Ru said softly.

"Grandpa, I want to enter the Southern Sword Sect!" Zhang Xuan said seriously.

"This Southern Sword Sect has strict requirements for accepting disciples, and if Xuan'er wants to get in, she has to work hard!" Zhang Ru stroked his head with his hand and smiled.

"Oh, grandpa, you'll teach me now, okay?"

"Okay, grandpa will teach you from today, okay!"

"Great! Let's start now!" Zhang Xuan jumped up excitedly. Then he took up his sword.

"Grandpa, I'll show you now. Zhang Xuan took the sword and walked under the tree and began to practice the sword. It was still those moves, and he kept practicing, while Zhang Ru watched from the sidelines, sometimes giving pointers.

............

On Jianyun Mountain, the Southern Sword Sect.

On the main hall, above is a middle-aged man, dressed in a white robe, with a white jade pendant hanging from his waist, which is engraved with the words "Sect Master". Below was an old man in a black robe, and next to the old man was a little girl, who was curiously looking at the buildings in the main hall.

If Zhang Xuan was here, he would definitely recognize this girl, because this girl was Qing'er.

At this time, the old man suddenly spoke: "Sect Master Shi, do you really not accept her?"

The middle-aged man said coldly, "No." ”

The next moment, the old man pulled the little girl and turned around and left: "Hahahaha, don't accept her, you missed the opportunity to revive the Southern Sword Sect, it is the loss of your Southern Sword Sect for thousands of years!"

The little girl suddenly turned her head and grimaced and laughed, "Big loss!"

After a while, the two disappeared from sight. At this time, next to the middle-aged man, an old man in gray suddenly appeared.

The old man looked at him and said, "Why don't you accept her, her talent ......"

"I naturally know this, you think I don't want to accept it, this person's realm is unfathomable, and their identity is unknown, how can they accept it easily. The middle-aged man looked at him and said. The next moment, a woman in purple suddenly appeared on his left, with a plump figure, skin like congealed cream, and slender eyebrows.

The woman looked in the direction where the old man had disappeared just now and said, "What the old man said is not unreasonable. ”

She turned her head to look at the middle-aged man and said, "Is it really the loss of my Southern Sword Sect............
