Chapter 74: A Sword Enters the Holy Age
"Haha, of course, I haven't finished Qianyang after so many years." Wen Yin said with a smile.
"If you go to Jili, a state may have to go longer," Ye Xipo said as soon as he spoke, and felt that it was a little bad to say this, but then he raised his eyebrows and said: "Of course, I don't know if Jili calls this a state." ”
Wen Yin was even more puzzled in his heart, this person first came to Qianyang but knew what he didn't know, a person who had been in Qianyang for more than 20 years, so he mentioned: "By the way, Brother Eldest Sun hasn't answered the source of your news yet." ”
"It's good to call me Brother Gong, it's too troublesome for Brother Changsun to call out, what about this news......" Changsun Gong pretended to be mysterious and didn't continue.
Ye Xipo didn't react, but Wen Yin, who had been in the rivers and lakes for so many years, didn't know this, and shouted loudly: "Xiao Er, come to the altar and make wine." ”
Yunxiao Brew is a wine produced in the south of Qianyang, because the raw material of this wine comes from the Yunxiao tree that only grows in the south. Although this wine is very common in the south, it is also much more expensive than ordinary wine, so Wen Yin can be regarded as a bloody investment.
Seeing that a jar of Yunxiao brew and an empty wine glass were served, Changsun Gong unceremoniously poured himself a glass and laughed: "Brother Wen understands me!" ”
Wen Yin smiled bitterly, blood dripping from his heart, but he still picked it up and poured a cup and handed it to Ye Xipo and said, "Come on, Brother Li, you can also have a drink." ”
Ye Xipo took the wine and thanked him, but did not drink it immediately.
"What's the matter, Brother Li doesn't like this cloud brew?" Changsun Gong looked at Ye Xipo after drinking a cup, and even had the urge to take Ye Xipo's cup.
"No, no, no, I'm just ......" Ye Xipo paused for a moment and added very embarrassedly: "I haven't drunk anything." ”
The wine that "Gu ......" had just entered was almost squirted out by Wen Yin, but thinking that this was his own silver, he still swallowed it stiffly. This Brother Li has never drunk alcohol, if it is said that he is not strong enough to drink, but he actually said that he has never drunk.
"Drink, I never drank alcohol when I left." Eldest Sun Gong didn't care and said to Ye Xipo.
"Yes, yes, drink, wine is a good thing." Wen Yin said, and quickly poured himself another glass. It's all a loss, drink more and lose less, Wen Yin comforted himself in his heart.
Hearing the persuasion of the two, Ye Xipo took a sip of the cup, which was very spicy in his mouth, which was not the same thing as what he smelled just now, which made Ye Xipo cough several times in a row. Immediately afterwards, a sweet fragrance of cloud fruit came up again, diluting the spicy sensation just now.
After a cup of belly, Ye Xipo added another cup to himself and said to Wen Yin: "As you said, it's a good thing." ”
The eldest grandson Gong, who had drunk the wine, remembered that there were still questions that had not been answered, so he said: "This news, my master told me, 'In the fifteenth year of Qianyang, Li Changyuan entered the Qianyang Palace, and he became a saint step by step, word by word, and then finally lost to many masters in the palace, and died of death', that's what he told me. ”
Hearing him say this, Wen Yin thought about the reliability of the news while drinking.
After the pungency completely subsided, Ye Xipo felt a little sober, and ignored what Chairman Sun Gonggang said, after all, he already knew about it, and he asked Eldest Sun Gong: "Brother Gong just said that you are from Dongli?" ”
"Well, it's the far east." Eldest Sun Gong nodded.
Wen Yin on the side widened his eyes and couldn't believe it, it was far away, it was so far away. Dongli is a piece of land across the sea from Qianyang, which is probably slightly smaller than Qianyang. Although it is said that they face each other across the sea, they cannot be seen at all on the seaside. If you want to leave from Qianyang to the east, it will take a month by boat at the earliest.
"Brother Gong didn't come from such a distance to the east to play, right?" Ye Xipo asked, he had only learned about Dongli from books, there were many large and small dynasties on that continent, but there had never been a dynasty as big as Qianyang and Jili. Of course, it is impossible for such a large dynasty to be the size of that continent.
"I told you, I'm a swordsman, an apprentice." The eldest grandson Gong said as he picked up the wooden sword placed on the table and showed it to the two of them.
"Come to Qianyang to learn swords? And with whom? Wen Yin asked, when he was very young, when he was still in the Chiyu Dynasty, he had heard that there was a sword saint who had entered the rivers and lakes.
"No one, just come to Qianyang to learn swords." The eldest grandson replied, which made the two of them a little confused.
"Then it's okay to leave school in the east, this is far enough." Ye Xipo raised his eyebrows, this person's words and deeds always gave him an indescribable feeling.
The eldest grandson sighed and said, "The east can't learn." ”
"Then who are you here to learn from?" Wen Yin asked again.
"Sss The eldest grandson took a long breath, almost not getting the wine out of the wine he had just drunk. After thinking about it, he said to the two: "Remember what I just said about Li Shoufu, who became a saint? ”
"The swordsmanship I want to learn when I come to Qianyang is similar......" Changsun Gong slowly looked at his wooden sword full of cracks.
"A sword into the saint!"
'A sword into the saint', as soon as the four words of Changsun Gong came out, the perseverance and confidence revealed in his words really surprised Ye Xipo and Wen Yin.
This person will not be simple in the future, Wen Yin said secretly in his heart. Judging from his many years of experience, Changsun Gong's words and deeds are worthy of his evaluation, of course, as long as he is not in Qianyang, he will be disrespectful to the Holy Emperor like he was just now.
"Dare to ask Brother Gong, who is Master?" Ye Xipo asked softly, and Eldest Sun Gong said that this secret was told to him by his master, so it can be seen that his master will not be a simple character.
"My master has been in Dongli all the year round, and you won't know if you say it."
Ye Xipo nodded, and the eldest grandson replied respectfully, he understood that if others asked about his master, Ye Xipo would only answer that it was an ordinary private school teacher, and he was indeed a private school teacher.
Over the years of living with the master, except for the Mr. Qi and the little boy who often followed Mr. Qi later, Ye Xipo never saw the master contact with anyone outside the village.
said that it was Master, but Ye Xipo felt that it was more appropriate to call him Mr., and from the first day of life with Zhang Xingeng, Zhang Xingeng let him study with the children in the private school.
In addition to the books he usually had to memorize, Zhang Gengeng would also ask him to recite some obscure books at night, like practicing exercises but chaotic, but this confusion was only a temporary chaos.
"You can understand, you will understand" Zhang Gengeng often said to him, and then urged him to continue his daily martial arts lessons.
said that it was a martial arts class, but Ye Xipo always felt that it had nothing to do with cultivation, that is, to do some strange movements, even that ordinary people could hardly do, and then insisted on staying motionless until he went to a private school with his master.
