Chapter Seventy-Seven: Apprenticeship for the Sword
As mentioned last time, Liu Feng missed the time because he was drinking with Chu Yuntian, so he hurried towards the north of the city. Na Cheng thought that he had just arrived in the north of the city and met Jiang Tong, but the Qing Shibai was nowhere to be seen, so he walked in the direction of the frightened bird, and came to the bottom of a few big trees, only to find that Qing Shibai, and the prodigal swordsman was also here.
This Qing Shibai and the prodigal swordsman tried their sword competition here, and the moves reflected the level and temperament of the sword cultivation master, but from the face alone, he knew that Qing Shibai was obviously superior, but the prodigal swordsman did not show weakness, and the moves were all done with all his might. Qing Shibai saw that this prodigal swordsman was a rare material for swordsmanship, so he also concentrated on it and sacrificed his sword, the Sword of the Great River.
At this moment, the two masters of the sword path swung their swords again, either in the air, or in the reckless...... In short, the two swords clashed, and everywhere they went, they cut gold and stones, kicked dust and flew dust, and they were speechless. Seeing that it was just the four teenagers on the side, they were stunned and secretly applauded, but they didn't dare to make a sound, disturbing this wonderful sword fight.
The prodigal swordsman suddenly met the sword enemy Qing Shibai, but he couldn't, so he retreated. Then there was a rain of swords, and the fortune was overwhelming, and the sword rain was heavy, coming to the green man. The young man held the sword of the great river in his white hand, recited the sword trick in his mouth, moved the sword against each other, turned the sword qi into three thousand, and formed a sword array to deal with the sword rain technique of the prodigal swordsman.
This scene of swordsmanship compared, as if Qing Shibai was breaking the sword of the prodigal swordsman, but in fact, he didn't see a fierce attack from Qing Shibai. The prodigal swordsman also understands which is stronger and which is weaker, but he just doesn't give up and specializes in those strong moves.
Once against the sword, the prodigal swordsman said: "Seniors, juniors ask for advice, they really really seek advice, why do the seniors avoid everywhere and don't do their best? It is inevitable that they will be suspected of insulting me." ”
This Qingshi smiled bitterly, which Cheng wanted to be kind to himself, but it became Huaiyi. It is no wonder that this young man cherishes geniuses in vain, and commits a taboo in kendo for a while, and after this round, he has a strong heart.
I saw that when Qing Shibai shot again, his swordsmanship was sonorous, and he changed his posture of only defending and not attacking, and his strong and soft moves really made the prodigal swordsman difficult to catch.
For a while, although the prodigal swordsman was happy that Qing Shibai showed his strength, he also knew that if he continued like this, he would definitely gradually lose the enemy and lose.
When the young man saw that the prodigal swordsman had returned the lightsaber, he didn't know what he was selling for a while, but he also knew that it must not be simple, so he didn't dare to let down his guard and relax his guard.
Only the prodigal swordsman changed his hair at this time, and the young man showed a happy smile, and said in his mouth: "The unity of human and sword, a little ability!"
The prodigal swordsman turned into a sword at this time, merged with his own natal sword, turned into a sword light, and flew towards Qingshi Bai again. This Qing Shibai knew that he could not be taken lightly, and immediately swung his sword to block it.
The sword path cultivated by this sword cultivator, when it reaches the realm of the unity of human and sword, it is a great achievement, which can only be done by kendo masters above the holy realm, and some people with low comprehension ability, even if they reach the holy realm, they may not be able to achieve the unity of human and sword. From this, it can be imagined that the sword skills of this prodigal swordsman are now what kind of existence they have.
As for Liu Feng and them, this person is one sword, and they don't even listen, where do they know what is going on. Several people looked at each other blankly, and although Chu Yuntian had never cultivated the way of the sword, after all, it was the martial arts taught by his father, and he had heard some of them, so he gave some general introductions to the other three. And this only attracted Liu Feng's secret yearning and admiration, after all, in their eyes, only a true sword cultivation master could do it.
This Qing Shibai didn't expect that this prodigal swordsman had achieved such an achievement, and knew that if he despised him again, he would definitely suffer, so he had to turn around, and suddenly turned into a sword light, and his karma was the same as that prodigal swordsman, the human sword was one, and it became a sword light.
On the pitch-black sky, two lightsabers flew away, flashing sparks and rubbing light, and the four teenagers present seemed to be watching a wonderful feast that they had never seen before. This Jiang Tong clenched the palm of his hand, secretly cheering for his master, and the others were also staring closely, looking forward to the final result, only Liu Feng secretly worried about the prodigal swordsman, after all, in his heart, he always thought that this prodigal swordsman should be a good person, and saved himself again and again.
At this time, the night was unusually bright, not only because of the moon and stars tonight, but also because of the glow of those two lightsabers. If you look at it from a distance, this barren place is like a dance of sparkling shadows, it is so beautiful from a distance, and for Liu Feng, the disadvantage of seeing it up close is that they are frightened, but fortunately, although they are fighting swords, they always know that they will not hurt the innocent. Even so, it can't help but feel chills.
The two swords sometimes fight single-handedly, and sometimes they conjure up tens of thousands of handles, like a group of swords fighting, the grand scene of the scene, where can it still be expressed in words, but it is only good that Liu Feng and the four of them are present at the scene, so that they can have that kind of opportunity to see.
Every handover, every fallen leaf, every symphony, every-for-tat, and even every breath of the people present are all dyed by the wonder of this battle, and they are all depicted in the sword domain of the sword fighter. It's just that for Liu Feng and them, these are things they haven't understood, after all, only a true master can compare to the foreign world of space and time beyond cognition.
From an outsider's point of view, the two swords confronted each other, and the sword of the great river of Qingshi Bai was radiant, as if it was the power of the starry sky, repeatedly oppressing the prodigal swordsman. When the prodigal swordsman was about to be unable to suppress it, suddenly, the lightsaber was dazzling, and then a trace of sword qi came out, and he retreated the sword of the Qingshi Bai Dahe. Then, the lightsaber fell to the ground, and the prodigal swordsman covered his chest and half fell to the ground, with a slight trace of blood at the corner of his mouth. At this time, that Qing Shibai also collected his sword qi and returned to his true body.
Qing Shibai drank the wine gourd, and said happily: "Happy, good sword, good sword, it's really a rare sword talent in six hundred years!"
I saw that the prodigal swordsman slowly stood up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and bowed his hand and said: "The predecessors really live up to their reputations, and the younger generations are willing to bow down, this time I am convinced, if there is a fate, next time I will defeat the predecessor with a sword." ”
Qing Shibai said: "I'll wait, I also believe that you have this strength." ”
The prodigal swordsman did not reply, but bowed slightly, then jumped up and left, and disappeared into the vast darkness of the night.
Just after the prodigal swordsman left, Jiang Tong immediately rushed up, came to Qing Shibai's face, and bowed: "Master, just now it was really wonderful, you are really amazing." ”
Qing Shibai looked at Jiang Tong's fuss, and didn't care, so he said, "By the way, I originally thought that after fighting the sword with that young man, I would take you back to Shushan." However, it just so happened that in the two days in this Jiangdu, I found a junior brother and sister for you, and tomorrow morning I will take a boat and go to the river into Shu. ”
Jiang Tong was startled for a moment and asked, "By the way, Master." If the apprentices have something to ask for, they hope that the master will agree. ”
As soon as this Qingshi Bai wanted to take another sip of wine, he was shocked by Jiang Tong's words, and said, "What's the matter?"
At this time, Liu Feng and his gang also ran over and met Qing Shibai one by one.
This young man was very irritable about this, so he told them to be exempt from courtesy, not to restrain these courtesies and so on.
That Jiang Tong only spoke at this time: "Master, I have no relatives and no reason in this Jiangdu, that is, those children in the broken temple, I want to take them to Shushan together, so as to take care of them, as for whether you accept them or not, it doesn't matter, wait until they can be self-reliant in the future, and then go with them, I hope Master agrees." ”
After Jiang Tong finished speaking, Qing Shibai bowed again, and told him not to worship and worship all the time, and then said: "I also know that you are kind enough to save those children, if you are left alone and abandon them, they will starve to death on the streets." This is not what you and I want, set off tomorrow, you will take them with you, and when you arrive in Shushan, you will meet the master who likes them, and accept them as apprentices. ”
What Qing Shibai didn't expect was that today's casualness would leave a series of torches for Shushan in the future, so that in the future, Shushan could be carried forward, all on those children.
When Jiang Tong heard this, he seemed to be happy, so he said again: "Master, I still have something to ask for. My brother's name is Liu Feng, he is the person of Yudong, we studied martial arts in the past, and his talent is obvious to all, and he is several times stronger than me. Since I've taken it all, why don't you take my brother with me?"
Liu Feng listened to Jiang Tong's recommendation, and was very moved, so he stepped forward and said, "Senior Qing, my name is Liu Feng, and I am from Yudong. I have heard your name, and I have great respect for you, and I hope that I can be placed under your door, learn one and a half strokes of swordsmanship, become a swordsman monk, and hope that the young seniors will be perfected. ”
This Qing Shibai looked at Liu Feng, didn't reply to him immediately, just picked up the wine gourd and drank it, and then said slowly: "Your name is Liu Feng, right?"
Liu Feng replied: "Hmm. ”
Qing Shibai said again: "I ask you, why do you want to learn swords?"
Liu Feng was puzzled, thought for a while, and said: "I want to be a big sword cultivator, become a big swordsman like you, hold a sword across the rivers and lakes, punish the strong and help the weak, and help the world...... Anyway, there are a lot more, I just want to become an excellent sword cultivator, I can do a lot of things that I can't do now, and protect the people I want to protect. ”
Qing Shibai smiled, looked at Liu Feng, and said meaningfully: "Actually, those things you want to do don't have to be so-called sword cultivation to do it, there are many ways, or other ways to practice. Why do you have the heart to become a sword cultivator?"
Jiang Tong said, "Master, Master, what do you mean?"
Liu Feng was puzzled, and hurriedly said, "What do you mean?"
Qing Shibai said: "Let me tell you the truth! The sword path I have cultivated is not something you can cultivate. If you want to learn my way of swordsmanship, you must have excellent talent, otherwise it will be in vain, you might as well take advantage of the present to hurry up and make a new plan, don't waste too much time on this sword. ”
Liu Feng was even more puzzled, why couldn't he learn kendo, what did this Qing Shibai say about talent, could it be that his talent was lower than Jiang Tong's, he didn't accept Jiang Tong, in Liu Feng's heart, he obviously felt that this Qing Shibai didn't want him.
Thinking about this, the words had already reached his mouth, and Liu Feng said: "Senior Qing, why don't you accept me, Jiang Tong, don't you also accept it, don't I have his endowment?"
Jiang Tong on the side didn't think much about it, just nodded blindly, in Jiang Tong's heart, Liu Feng was obviously more talented than himself, why did his master refuse to accept Liu Feng, but repeatedly tried to excuse himself.
At this time, Jiang Tong also asked Qing Shibai like Liu Feng, and for a while, everyone was puzzled by what Qing Shibai meant?
