Chapter 3 Sword Rain Gate
For hundreds of years, the disputes between the five kingdoms of Qin, Jin, Yan, Qi and Chu have been unstoppable, and the beacon fires have been endless, and the princes have fought for hegemony and the Central Plains. Fourteen years ago, the www.biquge.info current Emperor of Great Qin dominated the world with his great talent and strategy, and the capital was Xianyang.
Thousands of miles away from Xianyang City, outside the Seven Star City, a carriage was driving slowly.
Thinking of the competition just now, Ye Chu was still secretly happy in his heart.
"Uncle Liu taught me martial arts at the age of seven, first taught the knife, and then I thought that the sword was more chic, and I wanted to learn the sword.
"Since I was a child, except for Uncle Liu, no one has fought with me again, he always said that my swordsmanship is not even a first glimpse of the door, is it because he is afraid that I am proud and deliberately strikes?"
Thinking of his family who didn't know his whereabouts, Ye Chu fell into gloom again, he shook his head vigorously, trying not to think.
Ye Chu planned to practice swordsmanship in this Sword Rain Gate first, and then go to find the person called Du Gong when he was fully entangled.
He looked around, looked at the other eight young men in the car, and noticed a thin figure, huddled in the corner with a sword, looking straight out the window.
"What's your name?" Ye Chu looked at him and asked in a friendly manner.
"Yingchuan Prince An" replied in a faint and emotionless voice from a little boy with big bright eyes.
Only then did Ye Chu know that this Sword Rain Gate was not only recruiting students in this state, but also thousands of miles away.
"In Xia Ye Chu, the family lives in ......" Before he finished speaking, Ye Chu's eyes darkened, and he said in a voice so weak that only he could hear: "No, I don't have a home anymore." ”
A little doubt flashed in Wang Zi'an's bright eyes, but he still looked straight out the window.
Ye Chu looked at Wang Zi'an's appearance, turned his sorrow into a smile, and asked, "How old are you?"
"Twelve years old. ”
"You came in through a competition, too?"
Wang Zi'an shook his head. Ye Chu understood at this time, thinking that such a small child, if he came in one by one through the competition, it would be too difficult for him, it was estimated that the teacher who went to the enrollment saw that he was a seedling and reluctantly accepted it.
The two chatted in the car, although most of them were Ye Chu talking, and Wang Zi'an only occasionally responded.
"Liuxian Mountain has arrived. Outside, there was the sound of a groom.
The people in the car got out of the car one after another, and Ye Chu also walked down. Seven or eight carriages were parked at the foot of the mountain, and nearly 100 people walked down in twos and threes.
This year, Jianyumen recruited students from all over the country, and Benzhou recruited fifty people, and nineteen people were recruited in Seven Star City, the closest to Liuxian Mountain and the most vast and wealthy city in Benzhou, Ye Chu happened to participate in the competition on the last day, and he also happened to occupy the last place.
"Liuxian Mountain has arrived. Ye Chu looked at it, and it turned out to be a middle-aged man who had competed with the referee before.
"Everyone, climb the mountain on your own, and by the way, try to climb the mountain as fast as possible. As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, he turned around and walked up the stairs. The rest of the dozen or so faculty members also climbed the stairs.
The stone steps are steep and uneven, and the sides are even more dangerous, and if you are not careful, you will fall down. And these dozen or so people are all walking on the ground, talking and laughing, and in a moment they are already above seventy or eighty feet, looking effortless, really chic and comfortable.
New students from all over the country are also starting to climb the mountain one after another.
After walking quickly for a long time, Ye Chu felt that his legs were as heavy as lead, sweating like rain, and began to slow down, when he looked at the foot of the mountain, this stone step trail was not long, but he actually walked on it, but now this trail seems to have no end.
A few sturdy teenagers in front of him also began to slow down, and some of them were already standing aside to rest.
From early morning to dusk.
The last rays of the sunset, which were not yet bright, fell at the end of the stone steps.
Ye Chu stepped on the last step to the top, only feeling refreshed and feeling like a wandering wreck.
"The eleventh to the top of the mountain, Ye Chu, right?" the middle-aged man walked over and asked.
Ye Chu answered.
"Alright, you go to the right, and someone will lead you where you need to go. ”
"Sir, I have a question. ”
"What?"
"Do you have anything to eat......
After eating, I went back to the room where someone had taken me just now, and I slept beautifully, and I didn't say anything all night.
The next afternoon, a young woman with a sword took him back into a hall, and there were sixty or so people standing scattered, all new students recruited from all over the world.
The middle-aged man glanced around and said, "Chengliang, Zhang Lan......" The middle-aged man named fifteen names, and then said: "This is the latest fifteen people to reach the top, disqualified." ”
The fifteen men were immediately stunned, as if they had lost their souls.
"Returning to your hometown will naturally not be missing from you. ”
A few men walked out and took the fifteen people out.
"Fifty-one people standing here, congratulations on becoming the new outer disciples of the Sword Rain Sect this year. ”
"My Sword Rain Gate has been established for 300 years and has established the world with chivalry. Those who enter our door must have a chivalrous and benevolent heart, and must not do evil. ”
Hearing this, Ye Chu admired it, thinking that it was really a decent family.
"My name is Chen Qingshan, I am the teacher of your disciples, also called my master, I don't accept disciples, just your teachers, and I will gather on the training ground tomorrow. ”
Whispers underneath.
Chen Qingshan paused and continued: "Three months after the entry of each new student, the outer gate will hold a martial arts test sword competition, and all outer disciples can participate, as long as they have the ability, they can enter the inner gate and become the inner disciple of the Sword Rain Gate. However, there are more than 400 disciples from the outer sect, and the number of inner disciples is limited, at most three or four people at a time in previous years. ”
"I guess it's out of the show this year, let's talk about it in a few years. "How do you know if you don't try, I'm going to sign up this year anyway." The crowd began to talk in a big way.
Ye Chu looked around, and finally saw a somewhat familiar thin figure, and hurriedly ran over to greet him, "So you are here." ”
Prince An of Yingchuan looked at Ye Chu, who was close to him, and became even more restrained.
"Now go to your own room and learn your sword tomorrow. I don't know who shouted.
"How many times did you climb the mountain?"
"Fifty-one"
"That's really lucky, just fifty-one people. ”
"By the way, do you want to participate in the martial arts test in three months?"
"Hmm. ”
"I heard that it is extremely difficult to become a disciple of the inner gate, there are countless masters in the outer gate, you are so young, you should wait for two years. ”
When they arrived at the place where they lived, both of them were a little surprised.
Ye Chu looked at Wang Zi'an, who was his roommate, and said, "Fate!"
The next morning, Ye Chu just got up and noticed that Wang Zi'an was still sitting on the bed in a daze with his sword, Ye Chu looked at him, and suddenly felt like he was staring at a deep sea, confused and deep.
"Ten days ago, my village was destroyed, and I don't know if the two people who treated me like sons were alive or dead. They asked me to find someone, but I didn't know where it was, and I came here like duckweed without roots. By the way, I dreamed of them yesterday, one taught me martial arts, and the other was smiling and looking at me. ”
"What about you, how is your family, why did you come?" Ye Chu then asked.
Wang Zi'an didn't respond, just hugged the sword tighter, his eyes were still looking straight ahead, I don't know if he thought of something, he seemed to be a little scared.
Seeing this, Ye Chu stopped asking, picked up the booklet that was distributed yesterday and read it.
Legend has it that thousands of years ago, there was an immortal who traveled to China, saw Zhong Lingyu Xiu here, created the heavenly work, he was reluctant to leave, lingered in the mountains for many years, leaving countless legends, so the name of the mountain left immortals. However, the world is unstable, thieves are everywhere, and three hundred years ago, a group of thieves occupied the mountain here and harmed the people. The ancestor of Jianyumen killed five hundred thieves with one sword and stabilized one side. After that, he opened the door here to receive apprentices, because its sword is like rain, there is a tendency of heavy rain, so the name of the sword is the rain sword, and the mountain gate is named the sword rain gate. After three hundred years of growth, Jianyumen has become a well-known and decent family in the martial arts.
Seeing this, Ye Chu couldn't help but yearn for it, fantasizing that he was the same as the ancestor master, with a long sword in his hand, I have it in the world, and he walked the rivers and lakes in a green coat and a sword, how chic it was? At this time, he suddenly remembered what the instructor said about the cultivation yesterday, and when he came back to his senses, he was about to call the young man in the same room, but he looked around but was nowhere to be seen, thinking that he had already gone alone, and he was a little annoyed at the moment.
"I must reason with him later", Ye Chu thought as he ran.
When Ye Chu arrived at the training ground, he saw everyone sitting cross-legged on the ground reading a book.
When the middle-aged man saw Ye Chu hurrying over, he said slightly angrily: "I gathered when I spoke, why was it too late?"
"I was looking at the past in my room, and I didn't know that it was already an hour, so I asked Instructor Chen for forgiveness. ”
Chen Qingshan stopped scolding, took out a book and threw it to Ye Chu, and turned around to inspect everyone.
Ye Chu took the book, and wrote the four words "Preliminary Exploration of Tuna", he looked around, and saw that Wang Zi'an was really practicing with his eyes closed, and he was a little unhappy, so he turned his head and found a clean place to sit down, and looked at it carefully.
"Vitality, the beginning of all things, is filled between heaven and earth, everywhere. All things have spirits, and every breath and breath is breathing. If you breathe in the law, you can concentrate your mind. Absorb the vitality of heaven and earth and accumulate it in the body......"
Ye Chu learned the art of vomiting according to the method in the book, and only at noon did Ye Chu get up and go to lunch, as for the theoretical matter, it had already been left behind.
And so it was, twenty-seven days.
On the evening of the twenty-seventh day, Ye Chu suddenly felt that his body was light, and his limbs were suddenly smooth and comfortable.
"This is condensation?" Ye Chu was a little puzzled, so he asked Chen Qingshan.
Chen Qingshan's fingertips pointed between Ye Chu's foreheads, and said in surprise: "You really have stepped into the first realm!"
Ye Chu was a little puzzled: "Dare to ask sir, what is the first realm?"
"Cultivation is divided into five realms, and contemplation is the first realm, also known as the first realm. After that, it is to see the subtlety, to know, and to enter the abyss, and the fifth realm is called Lingyun. ”
"Breathing in the aura of heaven and earth and leaving it in the sea of secluded qi in the body is called contemplation. Concentrate and get a first glimpse of the doorway. The inner glimpse of one's own secluded qi sea, and the external sensing of the heaven and earth Yuan Qi Circulation, is to see the subtle knowledge, and use the mystery of the Yuan Qi Circulation, such as watching the fish in the abyss becomes the abyss to catch fish, entering the vast heaven and earth between the flow of the Qi machine, and you can turn it into your own use, which is the realm of entering the abyss. If you enter the Lingyun Realm, you can freely use the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, and above the Lingyun Nine Heavens, it is like a stormy wave with a wave of your hand, and it is like an immortal-like realm. ”
"On the twenty-seventh day, you will succeed, boy, you are very good!" Chen Qingshan appreciated.
It turns out that for ordinary people, to enter this realm of contemplation, it is as short as three months, as long as half a year, and it is not uncommon for those with dull qualifications to be in a year or two, and it is already extremely rare to contemplate in January.
"From tomorrow onwards, I will pass on your swordsmanship. ”
