Chapter 18: Apprenticeship with a Sword Idiot
The old man waved his hand and said, "Don't thank you first, I have conditions." ”
"What conditions." Zhong Lichun held the sword and stroked it repeatedly, but he couldn't explain his hand.
The old man said happily: "Little girl, you are willing to worship me as a teacher." ”
"What, you are going to take me as an apprentice." Zhong Lichun said in surprise.
"Why, my old man is not worthy to be your master." The old man said dissatisfied.
"No...... No, that's not what I meant, Master is above, and I am worshiped by the disciples. Zhong Lichun knelt on the ground and kowtowed respectfully three times.
Zhao Zhongquan looked at this scene, his jaw fell in shock, this old man actually offered to take his daughter as an apprentice. But in this way, her daughter has a relationship with people in the rivers and lakes, and she can't get rid of it if she wants to. Watching her daughter finish the apprenticeship ceremony, even if she wanted to stop it, she couldn't stop it.
The old man lifted his beard and laughed, "Haha, old man of the dead ghost, I also accepted an excellent female apprentice, see if your apprentice is powerful, or mine is more powerful." ”
Zhong Lichun was confused, not knowing who the master was talking about. The old man said to Zhao Zhongquan: "In order not to cause you trouble, I took this girl away." ”
"Where to go." Zhao Zhongquan blurted out.
The old man glared at him and said, "The girl's swordsmanship is good, but it's a pity that the internal strength is too poor and the true qi is too weak, so I'll take her out and help her get through the eight veins of the Qi Jing." in order to exert the momentum of sword moves. ”
Zhong Lichun was ecstatic in his heart, he just lacked internal strength, lacked true qi, if he could quickly improve his internal strength, it would be the best.
"This ....... Zhao Zhongquan hesitated.
The old man was dissatisfied: "Why, I'm afraid that my old man will kidnap your daughter." ”
"No...... That's not what it means. Zhao Zhongquan sneered and said, "I'm afraid that Madame will be reluctant." ”
The old man brushed his sleeves and said, "Don't worry! More than half a year, less than three months, when I help her open up the eight veins of the Qi Jing, I will send her back and practice slowly at home. ”
Zhao Zhongquan gritted his teeth, "It's so good, then it will trouble the master to take care of the little girl." ”
The old man said to Zhong Lichun: "Girl, go pack a few clothes and come with me!" ”
Zhong Lichun and the three maids hurriedly returned to the attic, packed a few clothes, and looked at the Qingying Sword hidden in the cabinet, she hesitated, this Qingying Sword was placed here, if it was seen by others, it would bring ruin to the Zhao Mansion. So he hurriedly picked up a piece of cloth and wrapped the Qingying Sword and picked up the package. Hurried out of the attic.
At this time, Ding received the information and hurriedly came to Qingya Garden. Zhong Lichun happened to come out to see Ding, and his heart was sour, since he was reborn, Ding has cared for him very much, allowing her to experience the affection of her parents. But he had more important things to do, so he had to leave the Zhao Mansion.
Zhong Lichun knelt on the ground, kowtowed a few times to Zhao Zhongquan and Ding, and said, "Daddy, mother, my daughter is not filial and can't serve her parents, please forgive my father, mother." ”
Ding looked at his daughter with tears in her eyes, helped Zhong Lichun up and said, "Yan'er, why did you make such a choice, you will have a hard time." ”
Zhong Lichun said with a resolute face: "My daughter knows, my daughter doesn't regret it, and my daughter has unbearable hardships." Thank you for your understanding. After speaking, he took the package from Mei Xiang's hand and picked up Qingying.
The old man glanced at the Qingying Sword in Zhong Lichun's hand, and a hint of discoloration flashed in his eyes, this girl clearly already has a good sword, why would Zhao Zhongquan beg himself to fight a good sword, doesn't Zhao Zhongquan know. So he glanced at Zhao Zhongquan and saw that his face was full of surprise. Suddenly it became clear.
So he took Zhong Lichun's little hand, took the scabbard of the Shuiyue Sword from his waist, buckled it on Zhong Lichun's waist, and inserted the Shuiyue Sword into the sheath. Leave with Zhong Lichun.
Ding Shi looked at the back in the distance in a daze, and his heart was sour, could it be that he couldn't keep it after all.
Zhao Zhongquan saw Ding's face of loss, and sighed softly: "My daughter is older, she has her own ideas, and we can't stop it." ”
Ding sighed faintly and said: "I always feel that Yan'er has returned to her soul since she died, and her whole person has changed, and she has become different from before, silent, as if she is full of worries, and refuses to tell us.
Zhao Zhongquan also nodded and said: "In the past, Yan'er was most afraid of pain and hardship, and she sprained her ankle last time, and she was able to insist on walking out of the Qingfeng Ancient Road, which shows how tenacious she is." It's not like Yan'er before. It's like a different person. ”
Ding agreed: "Isn't it, it's like a different soul." ”
Zhao Zhongquan held Ding's hand and said, "Don't talk about Yan'er, let's go back to the room!" ”
Ding nodded, and the two left Qingyayuan hand in hand and returned to the inner courtyard. Chen and Zhao Ruomei hid in the corner and watched this scene, the two mothers and daughters gritted their teeth with hatred in their hearts. But he was helpless and didn't dare to make any more small moves. Chen stared hatefully at the backs of the two of them walking away from each other.
Sword idiot medicine fairy Zhong Lichun followed the master all the way over the mountains and came to a Taoist temple, only to see the master shouting: "The cow's nose has not come out yet, and the old acquaintance is here." ”
"Dead old man, it's not good every time you come, who will you bring this time." An old voice sounded in the Taoist temple.
The old man laughed: "Those who know me are also void spirits." I really want you to do me a favor today. ”
Void Lingzi's figure flashed and appeared in front of Zhong Lichun, "It's for this little girl." It's also worth it, Shi Jingtian begged for it personally. It's really unusual. ”
Shi Jingtian said with a smile: "The apprentice I just accepted, how is it, it's not bad!" ”
Void Lingzi glanced at Zhong Lichun and said with disgust: "The appearance is good, but it's a pity that the internal force is too poor." ”
Shi Jingtian laughed, "The internal strength is not bad, and I won't come to you." You have to find a way to open up her eight veins in a short period of time.
When Zhong Lichun heard the conversation between the two, he already knew the identities of the two, and dared to love these two were two of the four monsters in the rivers and lakes who were as famous as the master before. His current master, Zhong Lichun, had long known that it was the sword idiot Shi Jingtian, and he had already known it from the time he took out the sword. This Taoist priest is the medicine immortal Xulingzi, and his former master is the ghost Sun Guzi. There is also a drunkard Li Laojiu.
Zhong Lichun respectfully saluted Xulingzi and said, "Junior, Zhao Ruoyan has seen seniors. ”
Xu Lingzi shook his robe and said with a smile: "The little girl is quite polite, come, stretch out your hand, I'll take a look." ”
Zhong Lichun stretched out his little hand as he spoke, and Void Lingzi took a pulse and sighed. I couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Shi Jingtian asked tightly in his heart, "What's wrong?" ”
Xu Lingzi smiled and said, "It's okay, it's better than I imagined." In just three months, she can open up her eight veins. ”
Zhong Lichun and Shi Jingtian breathed a long sigh of relief.
Xu Lingzi introduced the two of them to the Taoist temple and instructed Xiao Daotong to take Zhong Lichun to the backyard to rest first. Then he chatted with Shi Jingtian, talking about Zhong Lichun, and after listening to Shi Jingtian's words, he didn't believe it. He sneered and said, "You just blow it!" ”
Shi Jingtian smiled and said, "If you don't believe it, then you can try it tomorrow!" ”
Void Lingzi snorted coldly, "Hmph, of course I'm going to give it a try and see if you're talking big?" ”
Shi Jingtian smiled, what are you going to do? Void Lingzi said in a deep voice, it should be a drug to force out her impurities first. Then you and I will work together to use internal strength to open up the eight veins of her whole body. It is like practicing internal strength to get twice the result with half the effort. A long way.
Shi Jingtian nodded and smiled and said, "Then when are you going to do it?" ”
Void Lingzi glanced at him and said, "The day after tomorrow, is it okay?" ”
Yes, then trouble old friends. Shi Jingtian laughed.
Void Lingzi glared at him, "It's a pity, my good medicine!" After speaking, he left, ignoring Shi Jingtian. Shi Jingtian knew that he felt sorry for those good medicinal herbs, and he was not angry, he smiled, lay on the bed, and fell asleep.
The next morning, Zhong Lichun waved the Water Moon Sword and practiced the sword in the woods in the backyard of the Taoist Temple, Shi Jingtian pulled the Void Lingzi to the backyard early, and saw a petite figure from a distance, which was flashing and moving, the swordsmanship was exquisite, the sword style was old, and it was easy to retract and release, but unfortunately the internal force was too poor, and he did not play the essence of the swordsmanship. Less imposing.
Void Lingzi was surprised: "How can this be! It stands to reason that it is impossible, the swordsmanship is skillful, and the poor with little internal strength is like a master of the rivers and lakes who was seriously injured and lost his internal strength. can see that the little girl is just her age, and it is normal for her internal strength to be weak, but it is not normal for this swordsmanship to be so old and spicy, is this little girl really a genius. ”
Shi Jingtian saw that the Void Spirit Zi was silent for a long time, and said, "I didn't lie to you!" How do you explain this situation? ”
Void Lingzi shook his head, "I don't know if it's inexplicable." ”
Shi Jingtian laughed, "Then leave her alone, open up her meridians, help her improve her internal strength, and soon she will be able to gain a foothold in the rivers and lakes, and within five years, she will be famous in martial arts." That's my sword idiot's apprentice.
Void Lingzi snorted coldly, "I picked up a cheap apprentice for you." "Why didn't I touch it!"
Shi Jingtian laughed: "You can envy it, envy you to death." ”
Xu Lingzi's eyes rolled, "I also want to take that little girl as an apprentice, if you don't agree, I won't help you." ”
Shi Jingtian's laughter stopped abruptly, "No! The old man with the dead bull's nose robbed the apprentice with me. ”
Xu Lingzi sneered, and put his hands together, "You can do it yourself, if you don't agree, I don't care, you can figure it out yourself." After saying that, he walked away.
"You're a dead veteran, you can't talk and don't count." Shi Jingtian stomped his feet and chased after him.
Zhong Lichun, who was still working hard to practice his sword, didn't know that the two of them had a quarrel for themselves. When she finished practicing, Xiao Daotong came over and said that Master was invited. Zhong Lichun came all the way to the main courtyard, heard the sound of fighting from a distance, and hurriedly walked in to take a look, and saw Shi Jingtian and Xu Lingzi fighting with fists and feet, and the fight was inseparable. So he hurriedly shouted, "Master, what are you doing, seniors!" ”
Shi Jingtian said angrily: "Niu Bi wants to rob my apprentice with me!" How could I let him go. ”
"Rob me." Zhong Lichun was stunned for a moment, and understood casually, but he couldn't solve this by himself, he was not in Fu, one more master, the more the merrier, but Shi Jingtian didn't agree, but there was no way!
Zhong Lichun could only be silent, standing on the side and watching the battle, two first-class masters in the rivers and lakes made a move, and the opportunity was rare.
Zhong Lichun couldn't take his eyes off it, watching their moves and styles appear in his mind, and he was fascinated by it. Slowly, he turned his body and practiced.
The two were fighting, and when they saw that Zhong Lichun had actually rehearsed all the moves, they couldn't help but be surprised, and hurriedly collected their own moves and stood aside. Watching the woman on the field practice the moves just now, although she was a little rusty, there was no big mistake.
The two looked at each other, and there was a look of surprise on their faces, and when Xu Lingzi saw it, he liked it even more, and he refused to let go even more.
Zhong Lichun was intoxicated with his own world, and after practicing all the moves in his mind, he found that the two of them looked at him with strange expressions, so he blushed, saluted the two, and said with a sneer: "Master, senior, I'm sorry, I practiced just now, but I didn't know that the master and the senior had stopped." ”
