The saddest thing for a swordsman is to lose the long sword in his hand, sometimes the sword in his hand is like life, and if he loses his sword, he loses his life. And some people are willing to give away their swords as if they were giving away their lives. Is Huo Dingtian really dead? No, he just died in the rivers and lakes, but in another life he survived again.

In the autumn of that year, the rain was surprisingly loud, and this was the day when Huo Dingtian and Yue Shufan met for a duel. It is impossible for a river and lake to exist two world-class swordsmen at the same time, Huo Dingtian understood it when he was looking for Yue Mingshan to duel, and now he understands it again. Yue Shufan is a child brought up by himself, every trick and style is taught by Huo Dingtian himself, now the time has come, if Yue Shufan defeats himself, then he can let go of his obsession and no longer strive for the first place in the world, if he is defeated, then Yue Shufan will never stand up again.

The rain is particularly heavy, just like people's mood, cloudy, no one wants to see such a scene, but everyone has to face it, this is the style of a swordsman. What Huo Dingtian was holding in his hand was no longer a sword, but a piece of broken copper and iron tied to a wooden block, this was his sword. And his original sword, he had given it to Yue Shufan a month ago. He wanted him to win, but he wasn't willing to lose.

Yue Shufan arrived as promised, but Huo Dingtian did not appear for a long time, Yue Shufan did not speak, stood quietly in place, and let the raindrops of beans lap on his majestic shoulders, his cold cheeks, and his wet hair. After a stick of incense passed, Huo Dingtian rushed over, obviously drinking a lot of wine, swaying left and right, and a strong aroma of wine could be smelled a few feet away.

Yue Shufan was a little surprised, and asked coldly, "Drinking?" Huo Dingtian smiled and ignored him. Yue Shufan turned around and was about to leave, but Huo Dingtian stopped him loudly: "Hey! Boy! Scared? Yue Shufan stopped at this time, and did not look back, the rain flowed down his cheeks to his mouth, and he said softly: "I don't take advantage of people's danger." "Then he left.

Huo Dingtian was stunned, but he also smiled with relief in his heart, this kind of temper is exactly the same as himself, how much happiness in life can be compared to his own heirs and himself. Although Yue Shufan is not his son, it seems to be the continuation of his life. Life can have decades, and in these short decades, it is not easy to find such a person whose temper, swordsmanship, tone of voice, and facial expression are exactly the same as himself.

Huo Dingtian never intended to win this battle, he knew that winning Yue Shufan would be losing to himself. But every swordsman has his own dignity, he should have a decent way of dueling, and all the honor will definitely not be obtained by others. Huo Dingtian couldn't stop laughing, the laughter was still a few zhang away, his sword had come to Yue Shufan, Shufan stopped, his sharp eyes became fierce in an instant, Huo Dingtian's sword light had not yet lit up, the sword in Shufan's hand had been unsheathed, and with a bang, the two swords touched together, and suddenly the fire was shining, the sword flowers were splashing, and there was a ping-pong fighting sound in such a narrow alley.

The two of them are almost the same, but no one can see each other's sword moves clearly, even if they are drunk, but Huo Dingtian's sword speed has not slowed down at all, although it has passed the age of confusion, but the sword moves are as sharp as when they were young. The long sword in Yue Shufan's hand seemed to grow in his hand, slashing and swinging it freely, and he never trembled, after fighting for more than three hundred rounds, Huo Dingtian gradually weakened, after all, the old man, physical strength is no longer the opponent of the young man. Yue Shufan also saw this, but the sword in his hand had never weakened, and even less now.

A sharp sword light swept through, Huo Dingtian stood still, he never had a chance to make the next move, Yue Shufan's sword had already reached his throat. There was still not a single starlight, and the sword light on the ground had fallen silent. There were bursts of laughter in the alley, this laughter was made by Huo Dingtian, this was not Gu Ying's self-pitying bitter smile, this was a confident pride.

The rain was still falling, and there was still not a single star in the Tianshan Mountains, Yue Shufan put down the long sword in his hand and said coldly: "Today is not counted. Before he finished speaking, Huo Dingtian burst into laughter again, this laughter was particularly evil, as if he wanted to laugh out the laughter he had been holding back for decades at once, Yue Shufan became more and more incomprehensible, Huo Dingtian said slowly: "What happened in this world will not be counted, your sword is already faster than me, and I have died under your sword." Shufan was stunned, just as he had seen his mother die in front of him.

Huo Dingtian continued: "Fan'er, you go, in my place, you can no longer learn anything, only to go out, only to challenge the world's swordsmen, and become the world's first sword, is your only way out." This is also the only way out for our ruthless swordsman. "That's right, Huo Dingtian's sword is the ruthless sword, and Huo Dingtian is also the ruthless swordsman. From the moment Yue Shufan's long sword reached his throat, the ruthless swordsman was no longer him, but the kid opposite him.

Huo Dingtian is gone, his career as a swordsman is over, but he has no regrets, and what will be left to him in the future is a world of flowers other than swords. It can be said that he failed, but it can also be said that he really succeeded.

In Chuzhou in early spring, the cold is still as cold as winter, but it has a little more vitality, because according to the usual practice, after winter, people and horses can no longer rest at home, men either join the army to fight, or go to the field to plough the fields, women either pick mulberry brocade, or laundry and cook.

Everything is back to normal again, and the spring of Mengshan has also added a lot of fun, and heroes from all over the world gather here to talk about life and learn martial arts. For Chang Yun, it seems to have returned to the cold winter again, the extreme cold made his heart chill for a while, it is not terrible for the person you love the most to hurt you, what is terrible is that you go against your heart to hurt the person you love the most. The injuries on Chang Yun's body are not terrible, but what is terrible is the pain in his heart.

Under the care of the abbot, Chang Yun's injuries were fine, and he could move freely after resting for the night, but Chang Yun didn't want to go anywhere, curled up and lay on his couch. There were still two days left before the martial arts conference, and Shangguan Que went to Mengshan early to inquire about the news, wanting to find out if the Tianshan faction had sent someone over. Tan Zhi saw that Chang Yun was depressed, and he had an idea, and begged Chang Yun to go out for a walk while he was greedy. Chang Yun really couldn't stand Tan Zhi's instigation, so he accompanied him to the street, in fact, Tan Zhi went to find delicious food, especially meat, he hadn't eaten a full meal for several days. The abbot meditated in his room and recited the scriptures, and did not care about these mundane things.

After walking for a short time, Tan Zhi and the two came to a restaurant, this restaurant is three stories high, the whole body is made of fine purple cloud shirt wood, the pillar in front of the door needs three people to hug the party to barely hold, the stone lions on both sides are gilt and inlaid with jade, shining, so angry.

Look at the couplets on both sides of this door, which reads: Dismount and stop to smell the wine, and the entrance of the dish will be unforgettable. The next couplet reads: Picking the stars and the moon and indulging in pride, the heroes of the rivers and lakes are all famous. Look up and look at the horizontal batch: Heroes stay! This building is called the Star Picking Building, and the majestic momentum has already shocked people.

Before he arrived at the door, only a few feet away, he asked about the smell of delicious food, Tan Zhi sniffed hard with his nose, and his saliva unconsciously increased, and he touched his pocket, and saw that there was still some entanglement, so it was better to have a dashing trip here today. So he pulled Chang Yun and wanted to go inside.

As soon as the shopkeeper at the door saw that a monk was about to come in, he hurriedly ran out, waved his big hand, blocked their way, and said arrogantly: "Hey, hey, if you want to turn your fate elsewhere, the small shop will not accept it!" Tan Zhi was angry when he said this, and he really wanted to go up and slap him twice, but he didn't want to make trouble here, so he shouted: "Blind your dog eyes, Lao Tzu came here today to eat and drink, don't worry about not having money to pay the bill, so much is enough!" Saying that, Tan Zhi took out a money bag from his arms, and took out a piece of silver from the money bag, which was as much as ten taels, Xiao Er was dumbfounded, he didn't expect that the monks were so generous now, and he instantly questioned what he was doing, and it didn't take long for him to nod and smile and welcome the two in.

As soon as I walked into the hall, I saw the guests like clouds, and the grand scene was full. Finally, Tan Zhi and Chang Yun found a place on the street on the second floor and sat down, Tan Zhi ordered five or six dishes in one go, all of which were wine and meat, and the shopkeeper was a little confused, but he didn't expect this monk to be not only so rich, but also to drink and meat.

Xue Yu also rushed to Chuzhou from Nanyang at this time, saying that it was a coincidence, on the way, he saw Lu Qingsong, who was lost and depressed, like a lost dog, Xue Yu saw it, and said angrily: "You ungrateful thing!" Fast! Hand over the Dragon Seeker Jade Jue to me! Lu Qingsong was shocked in his heart, thinking that he was so seriously injured, he was not Xue Yu's opponent at this time, so he had to say in a low voice: "Young master!" You misunderstood, I didn't betray you, let alone the backboard but the city lord of Yuecheng, after the battle of the Tianshan Mountains that day, I was also seriously injured, and I found a family in the mountains to recuperate for a long time, and when I came out to look for you, you were already gone, I had to wander around on this river and lake, you see, I saw the disciples of the Tianshan faction two days ago, and I fought with them! Lu Qingsong said, pointing to the scars on his body.

Xue Yu scolded: "You are a fool, you still lie to me, if you don't hand over the Dragon Seeking Jade Jue today, don't blame me for not thinking about family affection!" After speaking, he pulled out his sword and pointed at Lu Qingsong, Lu Qingsong panicked for a while, and hurriedly explained: "Yu'er, you and my nephew have to make such a fuss?" I did enter the Jade Jue Cave, but I really didn't find the Dragon Seeking Jade Jue, I went in with you last time, I must still be in Duan Shuai's hands! I've just copied some martial arts from the rock wall, if you don't believe me, you can just take my head! As he spoke, he pretended to tilt his head and exposed his neck.

Seeing him say this, Xue Yu put away his sword in disbelief, after all, he was still his uncle, and then said: "In this case, you should go back to the Yuecheng Sect, instead of wandering around in the Central Plains, you said that you met someone from the Tianshan Sect just now, who is that person?" Lu Qingsong sighed with relief, knowing that he had escaped a catastrophe, so he replied calmly: "It's none other than your senior brother!" When Xue Yu heard this, he was terrified, and hurriedly questioned: "What! Isn't he dead? How did it hurt you? ”

Lu Qingsong coughed twice and continued: "He can walk and fight, except for two scars on his face, I think he is very energetic!" Lu Qingsong continued: "By the way, young master, if your identity has not been revealed at this time, then we must hurry to Chuzhou, lest he tell the other Tianshan faction the secrets of you and me, and then it will be difficult for you to stay in the Central Plains." After Xue Yu heard this, he felt that it was indeed very reasonable, so he pulled him on the horse, and after half a day's effort, Pegasus went straight to Chuzhou City.

Chang Yun was not in the mood to eat and drink at this time, just looked at the passers-by on the street downstairs alone, who knew that this look, he saw Lu Qingsong, Chang Yun stood up tremblingly, and then looked carefully at the man next to him, although he was covered with stubble and wrapped in linen clothes, he could also recognize this person as his little junior brother Xue Yu! These two are the culprits who caused him to break his legs!

Seeing these two people, Chang Yun calmed down, and rushed down with a long sword, Tan Zhi didn't know what was happening, Chang Yun had already rushed to the street, but when he looked on the street, he couldn't see the figures of these two people anymore, and after looking for a long time, he thought that he was afraid that he was dazzled, so he had to give up, let out a long sigh, and returned to his seat.
