Chapter 81: Lucky
"Exactly, my lord, this is my only daughter, named Mu Zixin, ten years old this year!" he solemnly introduced to the old man, "She is a martial arts wizard, and she has already practiced internal force transformation at a young age!"
"We've seen it before," the old man smiled approvingly, pointing to the golden jade knife in her hand, "At that time, I saw with my own eyes that she used this knife to kill off a group of burning ghosts, what a young talent!"
As soon as the words fell, there was an uproar around, everyone was surprised and talked about each other, Han Yuluo stood in the crowd and listened to the words of the old sect leader, he couldn't help but be surprised, he had studied with Mu Zixin, although he knew that she was indeed talented, but the statement of "killing a group of burning ghosts" was inevitably too exaggerated!
Ling Mu also looked at the old man in surprise at this time, remembering that they had only seen Mu Zixin and the Golden Jade Dao after the Burning Ghost had retreated that day, but he had never seen her repel the Burning Ghost with his own eyes, thinking of this, he subconsciously looked at the old man, but saw that he was still confident, and there was no sense of uncertainty at all.
"That's right! That day, the Burning Ghost appeared in Tianhuang City, and I went with the sect leader to investigate, and I saw Miss Mu with my own eyes...... Bravely repel the burning army!" Although Ling Mu had a weak heart, he was righteous on the surface, and thought to himself, no matter what, it can't be seen that the sect leader is lying in public, otherwise how will Ziyun Mountain establish its authority in the Xuan Realm in the future?
Everyone looked at Mu Zixin in surprise, and Mu Tianqing also looked at her daughter with half surprise and half joy. Although Mu Zixin didn't remember the events of that night clearly, he thought to himself that since the sect leader and the bearded man both said that they had seen it with their own eyes, watching him kill the burning ghosts, it must have meant that he really had some special strange skills, and he broke out without even noticing!
So Mu Zixin also pulled out the golden jade knife with great pride and held it in his hand and saluted: "Thank you Lord Sect Master for your praise! Zixin just did what she could, uphold justice, and do the right thing for the heavens!" Saying that, she solemnly handed over the golden jade knife to the sect leader, but her brows furrowed slightly, and she said seriously: "This knife is fine and extremely sharp! The little girl is willing to give this knife to the sect leader as a souvenir! I hope that in the future, it can continue to be carried forward in Ziyun Mountain and eliminate harm for the people!"
"Good!" the surrounding people clapped their hands and applauded.
After hearing this, the old man also nodded with satisfaction, and said: "Although the treasure knife is sharp, if it is separated from the master, it will lose its usefulness, if you are willing, I will accept you as an apprentice, and in the future, you will follow me into Ziyun Mountain to concentrate on cultivation, and carry forward the spirit of this knife." ”
As soon as the words came out, the surroundings suddenly fell silent, and Ling Mu was dumbfounded for a while, not knowing what to say.
Mu Zixin has admired the name of Ziyun Mountain since he was a child, and now he not only saw the sect leader with his own eyes, but also the sect leader praised himself, and he also accepted himself as an apprentice, and his heart was even more surprised and excited, almost without thinking, he knelt on his knees, looked at the sect leader and said solemnly: "Zixin will definitely practice hard in the future, and never disappoint the master's expectations for me!"
Mu Tianqing also spoke incoherently excitedly, and followed Mu Zixin to bow to the sect leader. The old man nodded again and motioned for the father and daughter to get up.
"Congratulations to the sect leader for being a high-ranking disciple!" Although Xiao Han and the others were full of doubts, because of the old sect leader's unparalleled prestige in the entire Xuan Realm, they still congratulated them.
After the crowd, Shen Yuxuan looked at the golden jade knife and Mu Zixin who was holding the golden knife in disbelief, and clenched his fists tightly......
Yuguo, Hongshan Village.
Xia Yuqian and her father returned to Hongshan Village, and the villagers also guessed a little bit about the situation when they saw the expressions of the father and daughter, and came forward to comfort them.
"It's okay, Xiaoqian, let's figure it out together!"
"yes, you've done your best!"
The village chief also came over and held her hand, "Child, we are very grateful for your heart, although the days are sad today, as long as we Hongshan people are united, there will be a way!"
Xia Yuqian nodded, but felt that her eyes were a little moist, and she recalled her duel with Han Yifeng...... It's obviously a little bit closer, if I had made a more firm and stable move at that time, I would have a chance of winning......
A tear slipped from the corner of her eye, she hurriedly wiped her tears awkwardly, sobbed, and quickly smiled and said to everyone: "Thank you, we will work together and we will definitely survive this time!"
When she got home, she began to take out the family ledger, sat at the table with her parents and carefully counted them, and in order to survive the rest of the day, the family of three decided to eat only one meal a day to save rations. From tomorrow onwards, Xia Yuqian will help her father work during the day, spinning and weaving with her mother at night, and as for Shanzhu's tuition, I am afraid that I have to open my mouth to the young master in the end......
At night, Xia Yuqian lay on the bed, and the red fox curled up beside her.
She stared at the starry sky outside the window, looking at the vast and bright stars in the sky, she suddenly felt that she was so small and insignificant, and her sorrows and worries were not even a fine dust compared to this vast world.
"Xiaofan, you say, is everyone living so hard in this world......?
Chen Kefan pondered for a long time and said to her: "Whether it is hard or not depends on how you look at your life. ”
Xia Yuqian stretched her hand out of the window, the cool night breeze blew through her palm, she got up and lay on the windowsill, looking at the open space in the distance, which was where Han Lingxiao practiced hard all day and night.
Han Lingxiao is the young master of the Han Mansion, he used to work so hard to persevere, but he took the Jingcheng Martial Arts Academy for three years, and his younger brother Shan Zhu was much luckier, and he was discovered by the dean at the age of nine.
Xia Yuqian thought that everyone must have their own luck, sooner or later, but it will come eventually......
She got up, put on her clothes, jumped out the window, and came to the clearing. Chen Kefan also followed her out, curled up on the big stone beside her.
Xia Yuqian still held the bamboo pole in her hand, but her internal force catalyzed it into a sword as clear as jade, and Chen Kefan watched her practice swinging the sword in the moonlight, drawing out the colorful streamer. Everyone's physique is different, and the internal force generated by it is also different, but Xia Yuqian's internal force is the clearest and most beautiful he has seen over the years.
Her speed began to increase, like dancing with the wind, in the past, whenever she was in a bad mood and couldn't sleep, she would practice desperately to divert her attention, and when she was tired and no longer had the strength to think about those troubles, it was easy to fall asleep.
She practiced like this for a long, long time, until the stars in the sky changed their positions and changed directions. Xia Yuqian collapsed weakly on the ground, her whole body was soaked with sweat, and she felt that she was exhausted, as if she was about to faint.
"You're fast, but you're lacking momentum, and your moves are erratic and erratic. ”
A strange red light flashed, and Chen Kefan, who had turned into a human form, came behind her and held her hands......
