Why do you hold the sword?

Zhang Daoqian replied without thinking about it: "The disciple wants to become a kendo master, move the world, and promote the master!"

"The swordsman holds the sword, when you break through the void, you still have a long way to go......," the master shook his head.

...... It's ten years in the blink of an eye.

"Dao Qian, you have become a generation of swordsmanship masters, let me ask you again, why do you hold the sword?"

"I ...... I hold the sword for the sake of righteousness......"

"Those who seek swords, be righteous and uphold, but you are still on the road......" Master nodded, his face serious.

The moon rises and the sun sets, winter goes to spring, and it is another ten years......

The master was lying in the center of the main hall of the master's gate, and the disciples were all kneeling on the ground, looking at the old master who was about to pass away.

"One life, only a hundred years, the teacher has lived one hundred and eight years old, content, but the teacher still wants to ask you, Dao Qian, why do you hold the sword?"

"The disciple wants to hold the sword, so he holds the sword, and the disciple holds the sword with his heart...... Master...... Master!"

Finally got the answer he wanted, and the old man's hand slowly drooped, and his eyes closed with a smile of relief.

The young face in the memory coincided with the face full of vicissitudes at this time, Zhang Daoqian was already in tears, his hand holding the sword hung down weakly, the ink-colored long sword fell to the ground and clanged, staggered back two steps, Zhang Daoqian looked up to the sky and exhaled a long breath, bowed deeply to the sword words on the ground, and immediately came to Wanyan Honglie's side, grabbed Wanyan Honglie, jumped ten zhang away, and flew away from the battlefield.

The main general has retreated, and the remaining Shang Dynasty soldiers have no courage to fight, and they have retreated, the battle of Longyuan, since then the curtain has finally come to an end, what is the end, Li Sinan does not know, after Zhang Daoqian retreated, Li Sinan fell into a coma, and when he woke up, he just opened his eyes, and saw his father Li Changfeng's serious face - out of the house, he has always had such a serious expression, the fourth brother Li Keji looked at Li Sinan with a respectful look, and the fifth sister also worshipped.

Li Sinan's eyes swept around everyone's faces, and then he smiled: "Do I have flowers on my face?"

"Second brother, do you know what you did?" The fifth sister approached Li Sinan: "You single-handedly defeated the Thousand Hands Sword Saint, and also won his sword!"

Oh! Now Li Sinan understood, it seems that everyone thought that he had beaten Zhang Daoqian away, and then fainted due to physical exhaustion......

"In fact, he walked by himself, and the sword was thrown by himself......" Li Sinan patted the fifth sister's head.

Li Keji squeezed Li Manchun away and said, "Second brother, you don't have to be modest, I have seen it from afar, and I feel that you are more powerful than my father!" The serious expression that mattered made Li Sinan want to laugh a little.

"It's really him......" Li Sinan had just spoken, when Chen Baichuan pushed the door in.

"It's really a hero out of a young man, nephew, are you okay? "The voice is a bit rough, but it's really easy to get close. "I've set up a celebration feast in the camp, let's go and celebrate together. It's really thanks to the big brother for your timely arrival, otherwise I'm afraid that the little brother has already served the country with his body. This sentence was said to Li Changfeng.

......

At the same time, Zhang Daoqian carried Wanyan Honglie all the way to the place where Wanyan Honglie used to collect treasures, and the blood lingzhi was also placed here.

"Give me the Blood Lingzhi, don't worry, I will leave when I get the Blood Lingzhi, and I will not hurt you in the slightest. Zhang Daoqian said, what he said counted. Zhang Daoqian pinched Wanyan Honglie's neck behind his back and said in Wanyan Honglie's ear.

Wanyan Honglie's throat was pinched, and his whole body trembled slightly: "You...... Don't mess around, kill me, you ...... You can't run away, if you let my father ...... Yes...... Yes...... Spare!" Wanyan Honglie only felt that the hand on his neck was a little stronger, and he immediately begged for mercy.

"I don't like to threaten people, and I don't like to be threatened by others, bring things!"

"Okay, okay, as long as you don't kill me, I promise you......" Wanyan Honglie nodded hurriedly, and at the same time reached out and gently moved the vase beside him, with a slight rumbling sound, a small door opened on the wall in front of him for one person to pass through.

Seeing that this stone gate that could only pass through one person, the murderous intent in Zhang Daoqian's eyes was almost condensed into substance, and feeling the murderous eyes, Wanyan Honglie hurriedly shook his head: "It's not that I'm playing a conspiracy, it's just that I didn't think about bringing people in when I built it, and the blood lingzhi is on the stone platform on the left side of the door, I ...... I'll go in and get it for you?"

"Hmph!" Zhang Daoqian snorted coldly, slapped a palm on the back of Yan Honglie's neck, and saw Wan Yan Honglie faint to the ground, Zhang Daoqian stepped into the secret room, fortunately, Wan Yan Honglie was still acquainted, Zhang Daoqian found the blood Ganoderma lucidum at a glance according to Wan Yan Honglie's words, and let out a long sigh of relief, and left Wan Yan Honglie's station in the night.

And in front of the door of the secret room, Wanyan Honglie, who had fainted on the ground, suddenly opened his eyes and stood up from the ground, with a sarcastic smile on the corner of his mouth: "Hmph, the world-famous Thousand-Handed Sword Saint will even care about it...... Whoever betrays me will not end well!" The grim look in his eyes made him look more like a beast. "Someone!" Wanyan Honglie kicked open the half-covered door: "Immediately block the city gate for me, go all out to search for Zhang Daoqian, and dig three feet into the ground to find him out!"

Zhang Daoqian didn't leave far away, and found that torches were lit up behind him, and he immediately understood that his traces had been exposed, and immediately mobilized his internal force, one step at a time, and flew towards the inn he rented in the city. However, it's okay not to use the internal force, only to find that the chest is blocked for a while, and the left hand can't even lift the strength, and the blood Lingzhi in the hand has gradually turned purple from the original bright fiery red, Zhang Daoqian has never seen the blood Lingzhi, and he doesn't understand what the blood Lingzhi is extraordinary, but I heard from an old friend that the blood Lingzhi can even be brought back to life if it is used correctly. So I felt that I might be poisoned, but I only thought that any elixir was also poison if I was careless. He didn't think much about it, but only slowed down the operation of his internal force slightly, and evaded the search of the officers and soldiers along the way, before finally returning to the inn, but at this time his face was already pale, and his internal breath was disordered, as if he had been poisoned. If it weren't for his deep internal strength, I'm afraid he would have been unconscious. Zhang Daoqian was so panicked that he picked up the sleeping red sleeves on the bed, jumped down from the window, and escaped by night. But the pursuers, as if they knew what he was doing, pursued him all the way. At this point, Zhang Daoqian also knew that the Blood Lingzhi must have been moved, but this was the life of the sleeve! It was absolutely impossible to give up! Zhang Daoqian's eyes burst out with a strange look, and his slightly weak limbs condensed a little strength.

Run, escape from here and be safe.

.........

Longyuan Pass, the lights are bright, and everyone is celebrating the victory of the war.

Away from the noisy tree, Li Sinan leaned against the trunk of the tree, playing with the ink-colored long sword thrown by Zhang Daoqian in his hand. Staring at the full moon in the sky, it took a long time to stand up, turn around and walk towards the outside of Longyuan Pass.

"It's a big night, don't wander around, come back early. Suddenly, Li Changfeng's voice sounded behind him. Hearing this, Li Sinan stopped and looked back, with a plain smile on his face: "Dad, let's rest early." With that, he turned over and got on his horse.

Hearing the sound of "da-da" horses' hooves gradually drifting away, Li Changfeng stared for a long time at the back that was about to disappear into the sky, just like the back of watching Li Yuekong go to the battlefield in the past, the difference is that Li Yuekong carried tens of thousands of iron horses, but Li Sinan was alone; Li Yuekong was for the stability of the country, but Li Sinan was for the righteousness of chivalry.

......

Longyuan Pass Xue Yue Shengge, and Longyuan Pass is only a hundred miles away from the Shang Dynasty border is a snow dance cold wind, every leaf of snow sprinkled on Zhang Daoqian's body, not only into the heart of the cold, but also into the bone marrow like pain, if there is no clothes to cover, you can find that his entire left arm has turned to jet black, and even there is a trace of black gas in the chest, only the heart is still normal. If it weren't for Zhang Daoqian's deep internal strength and sealing the acupoints, I was afraid that he would have already attacked his heart with poisonous gas. Holding the red sleeves of a plain shirt, Zhang Daoqian's face showed an unconcealable sadness and tiredness, but after seeing more than 20 figures shuttling in the dark night behind him, that trace of fatigue had to be suppressed, gritted his teeth, and continued to persevere. is just a seriously injured body, how can he escape the pursuit of more than 20 first-class masters.

When more than 20 black-clothed assassins surrounded him, Zhang Daoqian still did not show a trace of fear, just like Li Sinan said, the swordsman should be fearless, Mount Tai collapsed in front of him without changing his face, and the situation of ten deaths could be calm and calm.

"It's not easy to leave if you take something from an adult. The man in black in the lead pulled out the thin knife on his back, and when the internal force surged, the snow under his feet had a faint tendency to melt.

"Hmph, it's just a pawn raised by Wanyan Lao'er, if Zhang is not injured, you are worthy of shouting with me in such a tone?" Zhang Daoqian looked at the face covered by the black cloth coldly, and said both sarcastically and self-deprecatingly.

The black-clothed man at the head had undisguised murderous intent in his eyes, and he patted his hands and said, "Hahaha...... I have heard for a long time that the Thousand Hand Sword Saint swordsmanship is superb, and people are also very proud, what I saw today is really worthy of the name, and I refuse to bow my head when I die, I really admire, admire!"

Suddenly, the man in black threw a dart and shot out, accurately nailed to Zhang Daoqian's left shoulder blade, and the blade entered the flesh, Zhang Daoqian snorted, but gritted his teeth and did not scream.

"I have heard the strength of the Sword Saint's predecessors for a long time, we are timid, I hope you don't make these unnecessary little actions, after all, we haven't promised the adults to bring you back alive, how good are we to be kind, are you right?" Approaching Zhang Daoqian step by step, the man in black said frivolously on the surface, but in fact he approached very cautiously.

Whew――

The bitter cold wind blew, blowing down a layer of snow that had accumulated on Zhang Daoqian's clothes, and he knew that a group of people in black were walking with bright knives, but he didn't even bother to look at them.

Blood flowed from his mouth, tears flowed from his eyes, although it was a heavy snow and cold wind, but a drop of hot tears fell, but it melted the frost on his sleeves and eyebrows. Gently tightened his clothes for his sleeves, but Zhang Daoqian was a little choked.

"In this life, I mistook you...... Zhang Daoqian let out a long sigh and smoothed his hair with his sleeves: "If you marry me in the next life, I will definitely compensate you for a peaceful and ordinary life." ”

As he spoke, a smile of remembrance appeared on his lips. When he was dying, what he thought of was not the first in the world that he once wanted, nor was it the time when he saw injustice and pulled out a sword to help and support justice, but only the things he thought of when he saw the red sleeves for the first time.

"Eh, why don't you leave without giving money, don't run!" The shopkeeper wanted to chase after him, but he couldn't rest assured that he couldn't get out of his stall, so he could only stomp his feet angrily.

The boy happened to see this scene, and when he saw the girl with the gun bun, he chased after him, chasing and fleeing, and I don't know how long, the girl finally lost her strength, stopped, and stared at the boy angrily with two eyes: "What are you chasing me for?"

"You...... If you don't run, why am I chasing you?" the young man crossed his hands on his hips and gasped.

"......" The girl rolled her eyes: "Then I'm tired now, don't run, you can go, again! no! see you!"

"Eh, wait!" the young man stepped in front of the girl: "I don't think you look like a bad person, why do you do something like snatching people's buns?"

"Hmph-" The girl snorted disdainfully, "I just grabbed two buns, and you can chase me all over the street, but some people outside the city have been robbed of all their money by robbers, and some have even robbed their wives and children, and I don't see anyone come out to do chivalrous justice, like you can be chivalrous when dealing with the weak, and I have seen a lot of people who only dare to avoid the cruel people!"

"......" As soon as the little girl cried, the young man was immediately at a loss, and reached out to wipe his tears...... It's not appropriate, just say, "I'll lend you my shoulder, cry on my shoulder...... Nonsense, do people know you? In the final analysis, it's just a meeting in the water.

The girl cried, the boy looked, for a long time, the girl was tired of crying, but she was still sobbing softly.

"Where's your family?" said the young man.

"They were all dead, the robbers killed my father and my grandmother, kidnapped my mother, I hid in the cellar, it was pitch black, I couldn't see anything, I could only hear the screams of my family, I was so frightened that I fainted, and all I could hear in my head now was their cries...... Woo......"

Not only the girl couldn't go on, but the young man couldn't even listen to it anymore, so he hugged the girl tightly: "Don't be afraid now, I'm a disciple of the Boiling Sword Sect, you come back to the master with me, the master is very good, and he will definitely take you in." ”

"Hmm. The girl in her arms nodded slightly.

"By the way, what's your name?"

"Redsleeves, what about you?"

"My name is Zhang Daoqian, and I want to be the number one person in the world in the future!"

Time and space changed, Zhang Daoqian recalled the past, and completely forgot that he was about to die now.

At this time, the sound of horses' hooves "clicking" sounded in the wind and snow.

In the distance, the sky is dark, the snow is still very large, but there is an additional figure holding a white horse in the white snow, with a bamboo on his waist, from far to near, as if the heaven and the earth have no sound, only the slow pace of the white horse, and the long series of horseshoe prints behind it.

And where the young man passed, there was no trace of the snow......
