Chapter 12: Master of Swordsmanship
Early the next morning, two bodies were found in the back mountain.
And someone reported to Master.
Master and everyone rushed to the scene and found that the blood of the two had congealed, and although there was no trace of a fight at the scene, the two deceased were hideous-looking, full of surprise and doubt, as if they had something to say, but they had no time to say it.
After all, Master is well-informed, and immediately examines the wound.
It was found that the wounds of the two were surprisingly identical, both of them were killed with a sword head-on, and the wounds were three inches below the Adam's apple, which was extremely weird.
It can be seen from the wound that the speed of the murderer's sword is rare in the world, and it is the behavior of ordinary swordsmen.
Judging from the scene, the two did not have a chance to play the sword.
And being able to kill two swordsmanship masters with one sword, even if you are yourself, you can do it.
Who is this person?
It was definitely not these disciples who were present, they did not have this ability.
Why kill them?
He couldn't think of it, and it was precisely because he couldn't think of it that there was a trace of fear.
People's fear is not due to the unknown, when you know or are prepared, at most it can only be regarded as fear, not fear.
Because fear comes from the heart, and it is also the worry of death, not knowing when death will come, just like stepping into the void and falling into the abyss of no beginning and no end.
He looked at the wound again, and found that the two of them were not only in the same position, but also almost identical in size and depth, and it could be seen that the person who killed them did not have any fear and panic.
What an evil sword!
This is definitely not the swordsmanship he taught!
He had never seen such a sword technique before.
Although the disciples were already talking about it, he acted as if he hadn't seen it.
Some discussions are still necessary, and since they can't be stopped, why not.
He never stopped the words of his disciples, nor did he have such a habit.
What's more, now he is more concerned about what is the purpose of the swordsman's killing?
Although he is also afraid of death, as a swordsman, if he can die at the hands of his opponent's sword, it is not the best choice.
Isn't this the fate of a swordsman who should die like this?
Rather than die with the passing of years, it is better to wither in the battle of sword and blood.
What's more, his sword is not in vain.
He can have today, and it is only after the baptism of hundreds of battles that he has come to this day step by step.
Even if you can't defeat your opponent, you won't have the strength to do it.
As a fellow swordsman, he believes in himself and his opponent will strike again, and the next target is likely to be him.
As for why he was considered his next opponent?
He didn't want to pursue it, because there was no answer, and perhaps the same swordsman was the best answer.
From the day you choose the sword, it may have been predestined, and this day will definitely come.
This is the fate of swordsmen!
There is no choice.
……
Chang Yu slept late last night, but woke up very early.
He thought that after he killed someone, he would be so nervous that he couldn't sleep.
But he was wrong.
He had never slept so peacefully as he had last night, and he was even completely relaxed, without even a hint of guilt.
What's even more strange is that he, who often has nightmares, didn't have dreams last night.
He saw Master and all the senior brothers coming down from the back mountain, and the atmosphere was a little tense, but he didn't care, just like what happened last night had nothing to do with him.
He was even mentally prepared that Master and other senior brothers would come to him.
However, after waiting for a long time, no one came to him, as if he did not exist.
Maybe everyone is talking about this terrible swordsman, and there is no time to talk about him!
He could hear what they were saying, but he didn't want to participate.
He looked at them like an outsider looking down on all beings.
It's just that the longer the discussion goes on, the more he has the urge to tell them.
There were a few times when he almost spoke, but he stopped in time.
yes, if they ask, why kill people?
How do you answer yourself?
Tell the truth, is it because they are talking about whether they are men or women?
Of course not!
I have just calmed down or diverted this discussion, and I must not let them talk about it again.
Otherwise, they will have to die again!
The thought of killing made his heart move again.
Strange, why do I want to kill them?
Is it just that they like to talk about themselves? Or does Master never care about these discussions?
If Master didn't let the disciples speak freely, then the two senior brothers who were there last night would probably not have died.
So, is their death related to Master?
No, by no means, they were killed by me because they knew my secret, so how can they blame Master?
Oh, the master himself is also a very powerful swordsman, and his swordsmanship was handed over by the master.
He suddenly thought of trying the sword and trying how high his master's swordsmanship was.
Ancient swordsmen, after practicing swordsmanship, often found a person of equal strength to test the sword in order to verify their strength.
And on this mountain, the only person worth a try is the master.
Thinking of this, he began to have an inexplicable impulse in his heart again.
Yes, Master has nothing left to teach him.
However, a teacher for one day and a father for life.
What's more, he has been fatherless and motherless since he was a child, oh no, I am an outcast abandoned by my parents, and I was fortunate enough to meet Master and come here to practice swordsmanship.
Although he has practiced swordsmanship now, how can he kill his master?
Chang Yu suddenly discovered that in fact, the master knew himself.
It is because I understand that I stay away.
On this mountain, he only now realizes that he has few friends, at least no friends to make friends with.
It is precisely because he has no friends that he likes to meditate, and likes to communicate with birds in such a quiet place, although this communication is only a one-sided statement, but at least birds and beasts do not deceive people, let alone discuss the rights and wrongs of others.
He thought that he would be as easy to settle down as usual, but now he found that no matter how hard he tried, he could not return to his previous state.
His mind was so confused that he couldn't hear his own breathing.
His palms were dirty, and then he was soaking wet, and when the wind blew, he suddenly felt a chill.
Only then did he realize that there was a man standing behind him.
Master!
"Master, when did you get here?"
The Master did not answer him, but looked at him as if he wanted to see through him, and asked, "Did you kill them?" ”
Chang Yu said: "I ......"
The master interrupted him and said, "I know it must be you, except for you, no one can use such evil swordsmanship"
"The evil swordsmanship, my swordsmanship, are all taught by you, Master?"
"Yes, but your nature is not what I taught, nor is it something I can give you, I always thought you had changed, it seems that I was wrong"
"Nature?"
"From the day I received you, I knew you were different from everyone else"
"You already knew I had another identity?"
"Yes, there are two completely different traits in you, although others will have some of them to a greater or lesser extent, but it is rare to be as balanced as you"
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"Because I'm afraid you won't be able to accept this fact, that's why I don't dare to tell you"
Chang Yu suddenly found that she was crying.
Yes, for more than 20 years, I have been a monster in the eyes of others, and I don't know anything.
Anyone else will be miserable.
He heard the master say, "The most fundamental reason why your swordsmanship can far surpass others is because you have both the sensibility and sensitivity of a woman, and the masculinity and tenacity of a man, so that you can combine strength and softness and quickly comprehend."
"Did you know?"
Master had no choice but to nod, yes, he had known it for a long time, but he never dared to believe that it was true.
Now that it's a fait accompli, the only thing we can do is to face it calmly.
"It's time for you to get out of here"
"Why?"
"If you stay here, you can only be treated as a monster, not to mention that I don't have anything to teach you anymore, you should know better in your heart that your current swordsmanship is far above mine"
Chang Yu looked at the master, his eyes full of strangeness, as if he had never seen him before.
"Are you trying to drive me away?"
"Yes, this is no longer your place to live"
"Where can I go?"
"With your skills, there will definitely be a place for you in the world, and the changes will give you more space and opportunities, when you have greater achievements, no one will dare to talk about you"
"I ......"
"It's the only way you can go"
"After you come down the mountain, don't say it's my apprentice"
"Why?"
"My name doesn't help you, and it will make you scruples, you will have more space without me"
Master continued, "After you went out, I had one less disciple and one more person named Chang Yu in the world."
Chang Yu was about to say anything more, but the master interrupted him and said, "Draw your sword!" ”
Chang Yu wondered: "Why draw the sword"
"Try the sword! Actually, you think to yourself."
Chang Yu hesitated and said, "I don't want to hurt you."
Master smiled and said, "If it was yesterday, I believe you would have hurt me, but now that your heart is in turmoil, you may not be able to hurt me."
Chang Yu was still hesitating.
Master's sword has already stabbed over, a total of six sword lights, as fast as lightning, trapping Chang Yu in the sword light at once, such a sword technique can definitely be ranked among the first-class swordsmen.
It can be seen that the master is giving full strength.
I saw that Chang Yu did not dodge, but swung a sword against the sword light, only to hear the sound of the sword "poof", the sword broke into three sections, the sword light disappeared instantly, and the master had been shocked and flew out a few feet away.
What a strong internal force!
Chang Yu flew over to see the master's situation......
