Chapter 53: Teenagers should fight
"I heard that Liang Qiufeng returned empty-handed in the Wujian Building, and he didn't comprehend any sword questions. β
"Unexpectedly, how could the Xuan-rank Sword Question be so easy to crack?"
"No, I remember that in the past three years, when I talked about the Sword Hall, a Xuan-level sword question was like a roadblock, and Senior Brother Luo Gang was helpless. β
"Liang Qiufeng only has to cultivate the third stage of strength, if it were me, he would definitely change the reward method. Now it's good, it's so ambitious, you won't get anything, you won't get any benefits......"
"I can't say that, this guy didn't comprehend the sword question, but his cultivation broke through to the fourth stage of the strength path. β
"Cut, so what? Cultivation is the realm, as long as the fire is there, the breakthrough of nature will come naturally. Or, he happened to reach the tipping point of a breakthrough. β
"I remember, he was the Sword Mansion that he entered in a strong section. β
"In a few months, I broke through from the first stage of strength to the fourth stage, which is really good in terms of speed. But that's all, as we all know, in the early stage of strength, it is not difficult to break through. Besides, his age is not young, and his potential is not enough. β
"Hehe, do you know that after returning from Wujian Tower, people's mood seems to be very good, they eat enough, sleep soundly, and they can't find a sense of loss. β
"Are you forcing a smile and pretending not to care?"
"Who knows, what I'm most interested in is whether Elder Xiao will be disappointed after this incident?"
"That's for sure, Elder Xiao has already called Liang Qiufeng to the Inner Mansion, and he has to reprimand him. β
"So, this kid's luck is coming to an end. Without Elder Xiao's cover, he was beaten back to his original form, he was nothing......"
After Liang Qiufeng came out of Wujian Tower, the news spread faster than the wind, causing a burst of discussions.
β¦β¦
Inner House, Xiao Jihai's courtyard.
Under the shade of greenery, on the stone table, there is a purple clay pot, and the spout is hot, exuding an evocative fragrance.
Xiao Jihai and Liang Qiufeng sat opposite each other, each with a white porcelain cup in front of them.
Xiao Jihai stretched out his hand to lift the purple clay pot, poured tea into the two cups, and then said with a smile: "Qiu Feng, drink tea." β
Sit on an equal footing and treat each other with courtesy, if you are seen by those disciples, your eyes will definitely be staring out, and you will be stunned.
The four elders of the Sword Mansion, although Elder Xiao's personality is the most peaceful, but the elder is the elder, and the disciple is the disciple, and the status of the two is very different. Being able to sit together, it has already gone out of shit luck, and the elder has to take the initiative to pour tea for the disciple, which simply subverts common sense.
At the beginning, Liang Qiufeng also felt very restrained, but slowly, his body and mind let go, and he became much calmer.
Pick up the white porcelain cup, take a sip of tea, the verdant tea entrance, suddenly feel a warm breath flowing from the throat, straight to the internal organs, all the pores of the body are open, how to a "cool" word.
"The name of this tea is 'Dingyuan', and drinking a cup will be of great benefit to your cultivation that you have just broken through. β
Hearing this, Liang Qiufeng was stunned. He has seen it in the illustrated information, Dingyuan tea is ranked as a six-grade elixir, and it can be used to drink tea and cultivate Yuangu. Its price is based on grams, and every gram is hundreds of catties of spiritual rice.
Sure enough, after a cup of tea fell into the stomach, the true qi of the dantian, which was still a little unstable, was quickly precipitated and orderly.
"Elder Xiao, please forgive the kid for taking the liberty of asking, why are you so good to me?"
They have never known each other for the rest of their lives, and the two have only touched each other two or three times.
Xiao Jihai's eyes narrowed, and he said indifferently: "Maybe I'm old and want to find a disciple." β
The "disciple" he said in his mouth was by no means an ordinary disciple of the Sword Mansion, but a true disciple who was able to pass on the mantle.
In an instant, Liang Qiufeng's heart beat so fast. After a long moment, he regained his composure. I knew in my heart that Elder Xiao must have something to say below:
"If you were depressed and discouraged because of this, you wouldn't be sitting in front of me now. Because failure is not terrible, what is terrible is the loss of fighting spirit after failure. β
After a pause, he glanced at Liang Qiufeng meaningfully: "Now your heart and morality are barely passing, but your cultivation is still too low." β
Liang Qiufeng smiled.
I know my own affairs, and it is really difficult to take out the cultivation of the fourth stage of the strong path. If Elder Xiao accepted himself as a true disciple, he would not be drowned out by countless spitts.
Xiao Jihai said again: "You don't have to be presumptuous, there are some things I want to say when you become an inner disciple, and I won't wait for you to wait for you to become an inner disciple...... In a word, the future belongs to you, and the Sword Mansion belongs to youβthat's the only reason I'm so good to you. β
Liang Qiufeng shrugged and moved, got up and bowed respectfully to the venerable Sword Mansion Elder: "Elder Xiao, your kindness is unforgettable. β
Xiao Jihai said angrily: "Work hard, go and strive for something that should be fought for, ideals, glory, and achievements." Young people should be enthusiastic, should have something to ask for, and should have something to fight. In this way, this life will not be in vain!"
Young people should be enthusiastic, should have something to ask, and should have something to fight......
These words came to Liang Qiufeng's heart.
He said loudly: "Elder Xiao, I will do my best to repay your expectations. β
"Then what are you waiting for, let's go down and practice my sword. β
Xiao Jihai looked at it.
Liang Qiufeng said with a shy face: "That...... Elder Xiao, can I have another cup of tea?"
Xiao Jihai smiled dumbly: "If you want to drink yourself, you won't pour it, do you want me to do it?"
Liang Qiufeng quietly stuck out his tongue, quickly poured a cup of tea, and then filled Xiao Jihai with it. After drinking, he trotted out the door.
"This kid!"
Xiao Jihai scolded with a smile.
Unconsciously, I came to have a somewhat depressed feeling, and I actually became cheerful.
Since Tiandumen blatantly released black locusts and created insect plagues, which severely damaged the Lingtian production area of Jianfu, the entire Jianfu has a sense of oppression that the mountain rain is about to come. Internal and external difficulties, the slightest carelessness, the millennium foundation will be ruined, for the tiger and wolf to occupy.
If so, it is better to die!
What he said to Liang Qiufeng before should have been said after he became an inner disciple, but he also said it in advance because of the relationship between the people. It seems a bit premature, and it doesn't fit the procedure.
"Or, it is expedient to set a goal for him first, which can be pressure, or motivation, both positive and negative, and you have to rely on yourself to adjust and look at it. The waves wash the sand, and they are never merciful. β
Xiao Jihai drank tea alone, and his heart was resolute:
The next key lies in the year-end assessment, and the assessment results will be directly related to the Wasteland Sect Competition in the spring of next year.
But before that, the time for the annual lecture on the sword hall is approaching again.
In last year's lecture in the sword hall, Liang Qiufeng was accidentally discovered. So is there any surprise in this year's lecture hall?
I hope so......
