Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Old Man Who Sweeps the Floor
On a hill behind the Jade Pot Pavilion, a beautiful girl hid in a big tree, watching Long Yu sweating and practicing her sword in the open space not far away, thinking of his handsome face and that indescribable temperament, her heart was pounding, and her face was as red as a ripe apple.
"Xiao Nizi, you started to conceive spring before you were fifteen years old?"
Shen Yuluo looked up and found that an old man with kind eyebrows was looking at her with a smile on the top of the big tree, she was engrossed in the competition in the open space, and she didn't know when the old man arrived.
"Who are you? I don't have a Huaichun, don't talk nonsense. Shen Yuluo pretended not to know the other party, his voice became quieter and quieter, and he lowered his head very low before he finished speaking.
The old man floated beside Shen Yuluo, and said with a smile: "Hey, you don't know me? Then let me introduce myself to you again? I, you should call me grandpa according to your generation, do you look down on me, an old man who sweeps the floor." I also like that child very much, the future achievements are limitless, if you like her, you have to work hard!"
"Grandpa, how could I not know you, it's just that you are talking nonsense, I don't want to pay attention to you, where is there any dislike for you. I know that grandpa is very capable, but he is so old, and he is not ashamed of being old, and he jokes with a little girl. Shen Yuluo raised his head, remembering what His Holiness said, and couldn't help but bow his head and mutter: "What does his future matter to me, I.... I don't like him. β
"Haha.... Duplicity little girl, grandpa doesn't like liars. β
"Grandpa hates it! I'll work hard, I won't let him look flat, maybe not as good as him, but it will.... Will also follow in his footsteps. β
"That's right, you go back to the ancient cave first, and I'll meet this little guy. After His Holiness finished speaking, he wrapped Shen Yuluo in a soft and strange force to send her away, and he fell lightly to the ground.
He waved the broom in his hand rhythmically on his back, sweeping the dust and fallen leaves on the ground to the side of the road, and approached Long Yu step by step, looking like an ordinary old man.
Seemingly a little tired, the old man sat on a stone and wiped his sweat, while smiling and watching Long Yu practice his sword.
Long Yu finished practicing the sword and walked towards the old man, although he was engrossed in sword practice, but the strength of his soul power had already sensed the old man, but he saw that the old man had no malicious intent, so he did not stop.
"Hello Elder, I am Long Yu, a new disciple of the Qiankun Sect. β
"Hehe, young man, the old man is tired of sweeping the floor, can you give me a ride?"
Long Yu didn't refuse, and helped the old man to walk back, the strange thing was that the old man did not live in the accommodation area, but lived in an ancient cave not far from the forbidden land of the Qiankun Sect, which made him always feel that this old man must not be simple.
The ancient cave is very simple, there is only a study and a bedroom, but it is very clean, and the cave is very bright because of the night pearl on the top of the cave.
Helping the old man to sit down on the bed in the bedroom, along the way the old man asked some about Long Yu's family affairs, Long Yu also answered truthfully, of course, it was his father Long Tianji and mother Xia Yurou, the old man was not too surprised, just nodded to himself frequently.
"Little girl, can you come out?" the Venerable shouted in the direction of the study.
A girl in a green dress slowly walked out with her hands rubbing her dress, only to glance up at Long Yu, and her face turned red to the root of her ears.
"What a pair of beautiful people made in heaven, haha...."
Long Yu saw that the girl was Shen Yuluo, wondering what the relationship between her and the old man was, and when he heard the old man's joke, he couldn't help but blush a little, while Shen Yuluo hid behind the old man shyly, tickled him, and said shyly: "Grandpa hates it." β
Grandpa? Could it be Master Shen Tingsheng's father? Just as he was puzzled, the old man's voice sounded: "I'm just a bad old man sweeping the floor, but I'm not a real grandfather of a little girl." β
"The old man has practiced martial arts for a few years, Long Yu, I see that you should have stayed in the Feeling Spirit Realm for half a year, but mind the old man, check your body. β
Long Yu knew that the old man must not be a bad person, otherwise the master would not let his granddaughter be with him, and he lived next to the forbidden land, the sect master should also know, maybe he was the guardian of the forbidden land. Long Yu did not hesitate to take a few steps forward, the old man's right hand turned, and a ball of white spiritual power appeared in the palm of his hand, he guided the spiritual power from the top of Long Yu's head into the body, where the spiritual power swam, Long Yu felt extremely comfortable, and when the spiritual power moved out of the body, the whole body was full of energy.
"Very good, Long Yu, your body martial arts foundation is already very solid, and you have the qualifications to become a supreme powerhouse, as long as you work hard in the future, and encounter some opportunities, the future is limitless!"
"I've seen you a few times in that forest, how many years has the Qiankun Sect not produced a genius like you, this is the old man's home, and I'm worried about the sect in a few years. The old man's voice trembled slightly.
"Long Yu will definitely work hard and swear to contribute all his strength to the development of the Qiankun Sect!" Long Yu could see the old man's feelings for the Qiankun Sect, and the old man's face made him feel a little distressed, this old man who dedicated his life to the sect was worthy of respect.
The old man soothed his emotions, sighed, and said slowly: "In the past, the Qiankun Sect once overwhelmed other sects to become the second largest sect in Yundu, but in the past few hundred years, with the emergence of many masters of other sects, and the Qiankun Sect has always stagnated.
"Long Yu, the decline of the Qiankun Sect over the years has led to the fact that there are only four purple-level martial arts exercises and more than ten blue-level martial arts techniques. β
Long Yu heard that the entire Qiankun Sect only had four purple-level martial arts exercises and more than ten blue-level martial arts techniques, and the Qiankun One Qi Technique he practiced was the Blue Class Intermediate Technique, and the Qiankun Dragon Body Method was the Blue Class Intermediate Body Method, which showed that he had just entered the Qiankun Sect and received so much care, thinking of this, his heart felt a warm feeling, and his decision to find more high-level martial arts exercises for the sect in the future instantly rose.
"I also know that all the pressure should not be put on your younger generation, but the older generation has done their best, and due to the limitations of qualifications, the improvement of strength is already very limited, and I can only pin my hope on a few people of your generation with outstanding qualifications. β
Long Yu felt the helplessness of His Holiness and said firmly: "Rest assured, Elder, we will turn pressure into motivation and use our efforts to hold up the future of the Qiankun Sect." β
The old man nodded, moved his body, and Shen Yuluo behind him immediately hammered the Venerable's back, and Long Yu smiled at her sensible, causing Shen Yuluo to bow his head shyly.
"Long Yu, the martial arts achievements of the Yundu Domain not only look at the foundation of martial arts when you were young, but also look at the bearing capacity of your meridians, when I explored your body, I found that your meridians are much wider than normal people, and your toughness is also much stronger. In order to shorten the cultivation time in the early stage, I will implement the infusion method for you, and use your spiritual power to fuse the cyclone formed in your dantian, and at the same time let your realm enter the Xuanling realm. β
"Grandpa Tai was so kind to him, when I was cultivating at that time, it took me nearly two months to go from the Sense Spirit Realm to the Xuan Ling. With the help of Grandpa, you completed it in just one day, and it is estimated that your realm will catch up with me in another month. Shen Yuluo pursed his lips and shook the Venerable gently, "Grandpa, you also have to help me improve my strength." β
The Venerable smiled and said: "Okay, good, but your meridians have been finalized, if you forcibly widen them, it is likely to damage the meridians, so let's go to the bottom of the third row of the study to take the "Phoenix Dance Sword Technique" to practice, although it is a fragment, but it is very powerful, it can be regarded as a purple-level primary sword technique." Also, the nine cyclones in the Dragon Feather Dantian have already condensed, and Grandpa Tai's help this time is just to shorten the time for him to enter the Xuanling Realm a little."
Shen Yuluo ran out happily, only the fragment was the purple rank primary, and the treasure of the Qiankun Sect, the Qiankun Nine Swords, was only the purple rank intermediate.
"Long Yu, I see that your comprehension in swordsmanship is super strong, the orange level intermediate deciduous ten styles have already had the power of the yellow level after your fusion, and I have repaired the fragment of "Phoenix Dance Swordsmanship" for many years, but it still can't be completed, you can also take a look when you have time, help the little girl. β
"Yes, Elder. Long Yu looked at Shen Yuluo, who was happily gesturing in the corner with the cheats in his hand, and had an urge to protect her.
His Holiness poured out two balls of spiritual power with both hands, against Long Yu's back, guiding the spiritual power to dredge his twelve meridians and eight strange meridians one by one, when all the meridians were dredged, Long Yu felt that there was spiritual power in his dantian running around, after the old man entered another spiritual power, the nine vortices in the dantian kept changing positions, the first spiritual power vortex was in the center, and the remaining eight spiritual power vortex formed a circle, surrounding the first spiritual power vortex in the center, all the meridians absorbed the heaven and earth vitality from the outside world, and then gathered into the nine spiritual power vortices in the dantian, and the spiritual power vortex became more condensed and pureγ
In the process of dredging the twelve meridians and the eight meridians of the Qi meridian, the impurities in the meridians were cleaned up, and the meridians endured the impact of spiritual power, and the whole process was very painful, but Long Yu endured the pain and did not say a word, the sweat on his head flowed, and the clothes on his body were also wet with sweat.
Shen Yuluo looked at Long Yu, a little obsessed, this young man is only one year older than himself, but his perseverance is so great, thinking that every time he opens a meridian with the help of his father, it is difficult to bear the pain, and he has to rest for a day or two before proceeding to the next meridian, but this young man has been enduring that pain for four whole hours and persevering.
Although the old man was a little tired, he admired Long Yu's tenacity very much in his heart, and he suddenly raised a spiritual power to clean up Long Yu's meridians again
Another two hours passed, Long Yu opened his eyes, his whole body was refreshed, and he saw that the old man was recovering with his eyes closed, and he was grateful in his heart, he had just spent a lot of spiritual power opening up the meridians, guiding spiritual power and cleaning up the impurities in the meridians, and his face was even older than before.
After a while, the old man slowly opened his eyes, and said a little weakly: "The twelve meridians are the main channels for spiritual power, qi and blood to run. The eight meridians of the Qi Meridian have the function of commanding, connecting and regulating the twelve meridians. The 12 meridians are hidden veins that are separated from the 12 meridians, mainly to strengthen the connection between the two meridians in the 12 meridians, and because it penetrates some organs and body parts that are not followed by the main meridians, it can make up for the deficiencies of the meridians. In the past two days, you have been here to try to see if you can open up all the other veins of the twelve meridians, and then cultivate the Qiankun One Qi Technique, my spiritual power consumption is too great, and I can't help you. β
"Thank you, old man!"
In the next two days, Long Yu opened up all the twelve meridians and other veins, and also studied the "Phoenix Dance Sword Technique" with Shen Yuluo, and basically mastered the swordsmanship, with the help of Long Yu, Shen Yuluo also improved a lot in swordsmanship.
