Chapter 23: The Secret of the World
Because the shame and anger were so great, even the pain in her body could be ignored for the time being, Pang Maimai didn't know how to lift the little spiritual power left, and she didn't want Zhao Qianxing to give her the practice flying sword, so she released the thunder hairpin to act as a flying sword, and flew away from Yu Mangfeng when she stepped on it.
She didn't want to see what kind of expression Zhao Qianxing behind her would make on her back.
So she didn't know that when Zhao Qianxing looked at her wolf bรจi flying away back, he didn't have any expression, no stunned or mocking, just watched calmly, and didn't move until she disappeared into the sky, he put his sword into the scabbard behind him, bent down to pick up her practice flying sword, turned around and walked back to the wooden house.
Pang Mai rushed back to his room, closed the door for a whole day, and then did not go to Yu Mangfeng to practice his sword for three whole days, but just hid in the room to practice the Qi cultivation technique. She wants to do her best to open up the muscles and veins, and do her best to turn into Qi.
Among them, there is no meaning of anger with Zhao Qianxing.
Even if I did insult myself.
But you should see that I have worked hard to the end, so why do you still call me "squeamish and stupid"?
If only strength can prove it, then I will improve my strength.
Three days later, Lu Zhen actually came to her directly.
Lu Zhen entered the female disciple's room for the first time, and his demeanor was a little uncomfortable, although he held his head high and did not squint, he had to cough from time to time.
Pang Maimai understood why he was coming to see her not to practice swords.
Seeing that the master cared about him, Pang Maimai's heart warmed, and he suddenly felt that he was really hypocritical, even if his parents were not allowed to reunite, he was not completely alone, at least he worshiped a good master.
"Pulse." Lu Zhen tried to make a look that was both majestic and pleasant.
Pang Maimai bowed on his knees and called him "Master".
"Are you hindered in your cultivation?"
Pang Maimai didn't know what to say for a while, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Nothing." โ
"Is the injury healed?"
Pang Maimai's face was hot, and he whispered, "Okay." โ
Lu Zhense said: "People who are cultivators will not get sick. Since you are not sick, injured or hindered, why did you stop practicing swords? โ
Pang Maimai was ashamed for a moment and lowered his head.
Lu Zhen said again: "I asked Zhao Zhenren, and he said that it was because he was too strict, hurt you, and taught you too much." Are you gambling with him? โ
"Master......" Pang Maimai whispered.
Lu Zhen sighed, "Although Zhao Zhenren is young and has just refined the Golden Pill not long ago, he is powerful, you don't know how to respect your predecessors because he has an old relationship with you that introduced the incense." You must know that he personally taught Lei Yan the sword, what kind of creation, how many sword cultivation can't be. In the future, if you go out to practice, this Thunder Flame Sword alone will increase your chances of victory. Master knows that you are a little girl, it is indeed difficult to cultivate such a swift swordsmanship, and without returning to the real person, not only is the spiritual root excellent, but the talent of kendo is rare for thousands of years, and the more talented people are, the more they look at others as dull, and they can't help but be a little impatient. But this is your Heavenly Destiny Exercise! With the opportunity to practice like this, no matter how difficult it is, you have to endure it! Tomorrow you go kowtow to him to make amends, and practice harder. At the end, the voice became stern.
"Kowtow ......" Pang Maimai was startled. She never thought that one day she would kowtow to Zhao Qianxing.
"What!" Lu Zhen said unhappily: "You are a little junior, what is the rarity of kowtowing to a Jindan real person?" What's more, Zhao Zhenren has the grace of a half-teacher to you, you should know how to be grateful. Do you know that you have been in retreat for three years, and in the second year he began to retreat to impact Jindan, and when Dancheng came out of the customs half a year ago, you have also reached the time when you can practice Lei Yan Sword, originally Jindan was first completed, and you have to retreat again to stabilize the dรฌng realm, at least one or two years, but Wuhui Zhenren only came out after three months of retreat, and took the initiative to send me a message to ask you to go to him to practice Lei Yan Sword, what kind of friendship is this? โ
Pang Maimai was stunned.
Does this mean that he was only in retreat for three months, so as not to delay her?
Zhao Qianxing...... Could it be so good to her?
No, she didn't believe it, and with his appearance, if she really believed so, it would be really self-inflicted.
Seeing her stunned, Lu Zhen slowed down his tone and said: "Maimai, the Great Dao is ruthless, regardless of men and women, women are weak and soft-hearted, they are not suitable for cultivating the Great Dao, and the natural path is twice as difficult as that of male monks, but if you always think of yourself as a woman, it will always be difficult to climb the Great Dao in the future." โ
Pang Maimai was shocked.
Even the master felt ......
Do you really have a delicate stupid appearance all day long?
is obviously already very hardworking, but occasionally he is spoiled by Lu Zhen in order to entertain his relatives......
Why does even the master say that he "considers himself a woman"?
Yes, if he is a man, how can he be so inferior to a Jindan real person with a small Qi Attracting Monk? Dare not practice swords for three days if you are angry? I'm afraid that even if I am beaten, I have to thank my seniors for their advice, and I have to do it myself!
I really subconsciously felt that I was a woman, and Zhao Qianxing was a young man. Although it is fair to say that it was Zhao Qianxing's inappropriate words and deeds that led her to this point, how could she take advantage of the situation like this, it was caused by impure thoughts.
After thinking about this, I immediately felt remorse.
She got up and saluted the master and said, "Thank you for Master's guidance, tomorrow the apprentice will go to Zhao Zhenren to ask for guilt." โ
Lu Zhen nodded: "Next month is the Zhao Zhenren Jindan Ceremony, my sect has invited a lot of distinguished guests from other sects, although you don't have any good things, after all, you have received the favor of Zhao Zhenren, and you can't help but think about what kind of gift you want to give." Not precious, but chic. โ
After explaining, Lu Zhen, who received positive feedback from his disciples, left the room of the female disciple who set foot for the first time with satisfaction.
So on the second day, Pang Maimai came to Yu Mangfeng early and knelt directly in front of Zhao Qianxing's wooden house, silently kneeling without saying a word.
I knelt for half an hour before a voice came out: "What are you doing kneeling early in the morning?" The voice was slightly lazy, as if he had just gotten up.
Pang Maimai bowed his head and said loudly: "The disciple has to be bothered by the real person to teach Lei Yan's swordsmanship, but he doesn't know how to be grateful or respectful, so he specially asks the real person for his guilt today." โ
There was no answer.
But there was the sound of the door opening and footsteps slowly walking out of the room, a pair of dark embroidered double dragons, and the boots of the indistinguishable material stepped on the ground in front of her.
Then a long, cool hand reached over and took hold of her jaw and lifted her chin so that she had to look directly into his mocking eyes.
"What," Zhao Qianxing was always a little lazy today, and said casually, "It's not called Zhao Qianxing, it's called a real person instead, is this gambling with me?" โ
Pang Maimai twisted his face stiffly, broke free from his hand, and thought, I can't completely blame me, Zhao Qianxing has always had such an ambiguous attitude towards me, I don't want to be fooled again, no matter whether he sneers or ridicules me or teases me in the future, I will treat his seniors with respect, so that he can't have that opportunity to bully me again!
So she lowered her eyes and whispered, "The disciple doesn't dare." โ
Zhao Qianxing stood up straight, his slender waist stretched, and Pang Maimai couldn't help but think that this guy really had an ordinary face but a good figure.
"It seems that you are unwilling to be my furnace concubine, since this is the case, get up and practice." Although his voice was cold, there was a hint of relief in it.
Pang Maimai's heart was relieved, it seemed that Zhao Qianxing was really teaching himself, not using excuses to tease.
So she redoubled her efforts.
In the past few days, Zhao Qianxing has not tossed her too much, nor has he said anything excessive, every time she has to face a more severe injury, he will still come to help, but he slightly avoids it in sensitive places, and it seems that he is a little bit of a person who has begun to avoid suspicion, and he really has the posture of a senior master.
Pang Maimai's heart was finally able to calm down.
As a result, she found that although his teaching method seemed harsh and unkind, it was quite effective, and his physical and spiritual power had improved considerably, and she had also reached the entrance of the Lei Yan Sword quickly, and she had been able to carry thunder and lightning or flames with the sword.
Although Zhao Qianxing said that her swordsmanship can only kill caterpillars and rabbits at present, it depends on luck.
In fact, Pang Maimai also comprehended that her cultivation in the previous three years, except for refining weapons, was almost all specialized in spiritual power and laying a good foundation, and the Qi cultivation technique was really non-lethal. Therefore, her physical body is very fragile in the eyes of the monks, and her attacks are basically based on a few small spells such as the Five Thunder Tricks and the small magic weapons given by the master to defend herself.
Lu Zhen didn't want to let his proud female disciple go out of the mountain too early to practice, so he didn't particularly emphasize the battle.
Or maybe Lu Zhen himself is not very good at fighting.
She is living in the ivory tower of the cultivation realm.
Thanks to her, she has always been secretly proud, feeling that she is talented and hardworking.
Zhao Qianxing is not, the coldness in his body is actually murderous, and he can see that he has experienced many life and death killings in just a few words, so he is particularly unaccustomed to Pang Maimai standing all over his body and flaws, and his body is as delicate as a mortal, he gave her severe training, in order to quench her body and enhance her sense of battle, lest she be killed and captured as soon as she goes out, and the cultivation of so many materials spent by the sect is all wasted.
After figuring it out, it will be more convincing when you work hard, after all, even if Pang Maimai doesn't like to be brave and ruthless, he definitely doesn't want to be cannon fodder who will be killed as soon as he goes out.
The first training on the seventh day of sword practice: Pang Maimai climbed with his bare hands from the bottom of the mountain.
"Don't use flying skills, give you time for a cup of tea, if you can't get up, you don't practice sword today, just climb the mountain a hundred times." Said the devil instructor.
However, Yu Mangfeng was really steep, and the side he asked her to climb was basically ninety degrees.
If Pang Maimai had not cultivated, this would simply be an impossible task.
Now she has spiritual powers, and she has a gradually growing body, but a cup of tea is still very difficult.
Pang Maimai lacks the aura of the protagonist, although she works very hard, but it is still a little late.
So this day was used to climb the mountain repeatedly.
At first, she used her spiritual power to protect her hands, but after more than sixty times, her spiritual power dried up, and she could only rely on her body to climb the mountain.
When she was covered with blood more than seventy times, Zhao Qianxing held her hands in front of her chest on the top of the mountain, watching coldly.
More than eighty times she was almost unconscious, gritted her teeth, and did not complain or beg for mercy.
Ninety-three times, she fell.
When she fell, she thought, maybe she would go back in time this time.
When she woke up, she was in his arms, and when she opened her eyes, she saw his passerby face, but her eyes were so beautiful, and there was a cinnabar mole that people couldn't ignore.
Her left arm was pressed against his chest, and her body temperature and heartbeat could be felt.
Pang Maimai uncomfortably moved a little away, lest he attract his ridicule for a while.
He tightened his arms around her, then let go of them a little. It seems that he is just afraid that she will fall.
Come less, the dignified Zhao Zhenren shouldn't be so gentle. Pang Maimai thought.
However, although his voice was not gentle when he spoke, the content was really gentle: "Forget it today, there are still seven times left to make up for tomorrow." โ
Pang Maimai's body was still lying in his arms, and he sighed.
Zhao Qianxing stared down at her, unexpectedly not sneering.
The mountain breeze was slightly cool, but it was barely soft, and Pang Maimai was in pain, especially his hands, but at the moment he was barely quiet and peaceful.
Zhao Qianxing was really beautiful when he didn't speak.
She didn't have the strength to struggle anyway, so she temporarily indulged herself in his arms for a while.
How good a monk is, the princess doesn't have to work hard to hug a woman at all, if you wait for yourself to go back to modern times, the average man needs to exercise in the gym for two years in advance if he wants to be able to hold the princess and his bride in advance, not to mention facing the mountain wind and waterfall like this, silently lifting weights and holding it all the time.
So Pang Maimai naturally spoke: "In that village, why can't I get out?" And how did you get me out? โ
Zhao Qianxing didn't speak.
Pang Maimai continued: "I thought that it would be easy for me to understand when I became a monk, but now that I am a monk, I still don't understand, I have checked a lot of books in private...... but even the master did not dare to ask.
She is an outlier in this world after all.
"Don't ask." Zhao Qianxing's voice cooled down, "Don't talk to anyone, including Lu Zhen." โ
The atmosphere of tranquility vanished suddenly.
The mountain breeze is getting cold and uncomfortable.
"I ......," she said, biting her lip, "I'll be curious." โ
"Curiosity kills." Zhao Qianxing's voice was not only cold, but also distant, "The secrets of this world, you as an outsider shouldn't know. โ
