Volume 1 The Young Eagle Chapter 7 Focus
The long sword that fell to the ground did not make the crisp sound it should have, but made a very dull sound because the sword was full of rust.
If it weren't for still maintaining the shape of a sword, it would look more like an iron bar.
Zhang Yang was a little confused for a while, which was a bit different from his imagination.
Stunned for a moment, he bent down and picked up the sword on the ground, no matter what, this is his own destined sword.
Holding the sword, he gently stroked it, and the rust on the surface was pitted, and at a glance, he knew that it had been deposited for a long time, but the rust color did not stain the palm of his hand that he had touched.
I rubbed it vigorously with my fingers, but the rust color still did not stain my hands, and the rust on the sword did not fade a little.
Zhang Yang was not only a little surprised in his heart.
The people who were shocked and attracted to Wanjian Mountain could already see the situation on the mountain clearly at this time, and Zhang Yang standing on the top of the peak naturally became the focus again.
Wanjian Mountain is looking for swords, and the higher the place where the sword is found, the stronger the sword will be, which is a well-known thing.
There is another point that only the few older generations in the Sword Sect know,
The higher the place where the sword is found, the higher the degree of compatibility between the sword and oneself, and the greater the benefit to future cultivation.
In the past, there were cases where they were not satisfied with finding the sword in a low place, and then discarded it and found it again, resulting in nothing, so they did not continue to pass on this matter, but only stopped in their generation.
When I saw Zhang Yang, among the people, all kinds of emotions were mixed, happy, amazed, envious, and jealous,...。
Then when he saw the sword in his hand,
became, pity, pity, schadenfreude, ridicule,...。
"What's that in his hand? a scrap iron bar?"
"Hahaha, I look like it,"
"Scrap iron bars, don't you know that heavy treasures have a lot of spirits and will protect themselves?"
"Yes, for tens of thousands of years, I have never heard of a disciple who can climb to the top of the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain and find the sword, and it is very likely that he has a peerless sword in his hand,"
"Tut-tut, you guys are really amazing, a scrap iron bar can also be said to be a rare treasure, admire it,"
......。
Looking at the rusty sword in his hand, he was more and more attracted by this sword that could not see its face.
There was a strong feeling in my mind, 'This sword is not ordinary'.
But where it is not ordinary, he does not know.
After a long time of careful inspection, I didn't find anything special except for the rust.
Xia Zhiyi drove the flying boat to Zhang Yang's side and comforted him softly, "It's okay, the sword itself can't represent a person's future achievements."
Zhang Yang raised his head and smiled: "Madam, in fact, I think this sword is very good."
Xia Zhiyi's face immediately turned red like a ripe apple, and she complained shyly: "There are so many people watching next to you."
"What's wrong with it? You're not my wife anymore? Hurry up and call your husband to listen", Zhang Yang walked into Xia Zhiyi and hugged her slender waist.
Gently shook her body, did not break free, Xia Zhiyi's face turned even redder, and then called softly, "Husband."
The people watching around immediately boiled.
"The legend is actually true, the two of them have really become Taoist couples,"
"What Taoist couples, they are all called like that, this is a real husband and wife,"
"It's just an adulterer, a dog man and a woman,"
"Sun Bin is so pitiful,"
"That named Sun Bin doesn't even know where it is, maybe he himself agreed?"
"Hahaha!"
......。
The discussion started again, but when it came to the Xia family and the Sun family, the voices were very quiet.
Zhang Yang smiled and waved his hand at the sky around him, which means "bye-bye".
I want to put the sword in the storage bag and leave.
I didn't expect to try it a few times, but I couldn't accept it.
"What's wrong husband", Xia Zhiyi asked softly, she found that after screaming, a pair of Zhang Yang had a feeling when they spoke, and they wanted to bring the word husband, feeling that it was very comfortable to call like this, and her physical reaction was even stronger after calling.
"This sword doesn't seem to fit into the storage bag", Zhang Yang was helpless.
"It's okay, just take it, the day after tomorrow is the official entrance ceremony, husband, you have worked hard in the mountains these days, go back and rest early!" Xia Zhiyi's tone was as tender as water.
Zhang Yang comprehended, took the sword, and immediately jumped into the flying boat, Xia Zhi lightly touched the ground on her toes, and fell into the flying boat, with a thousand demeanors.
In the midst of the continuous heated discussions, the flying boat left.
After the two left.
The neutral person immediately left, not wanting to get involved in right and wrong.
The children of the Sun family and the faction forces of Yifu and the Sun family began to scold.
The children of the Xia family and Yifu fought back with the forces of the Xia family.
A scolding battle erupted between the two shots.
"Old man, really old man!" Shangguan Qing turned and walked towards the thatched house.
————
Sun Zhiyuan sat on the seat of the head of the Sun family, his eyes closed, motionless, so that people couldn't guess his inner thoughts at the moment.
The people below were full of people from the Sun family, and there were many people standing there.
One by one, they gritted their teeth, and their faces were full of anger.
"Father, Bin'er has not returned recently, I suspect that he has really been killed, the murderer is likely to be the pair of dog men and women, today our Sun family has suffered such a great shame from this dog man and woman, is our Sun family just resigned to it?" Sun Gaohai stood up and shouted.
"What Gao Hai said is reasonable, big brother, when has our Sun family been so insulted, we must go over now, slaughter that kid who doesn't know the height of the sky, and seek justice!"
"Kill Zhang Yang and seek justice!"
"Kill Zhang Yang and seek justice!"
......。
Sun Zhiyuan opened his eyes, looked at the people below, and said calmly: "Starting today, all the Sun family, including those who belong to the Sun family's forces, should stop causing trouble outside for the time being, and should keep a low profile. As for justice, it must be taken back, and it must be doubled, but not now, because it is not yet time. Rest assured, since I say so, it will be sooner or later. Okay, let's disperse, Gao Hai, don't go, come with me to see your grandfather later."
Sun Gaohai immediately said excitedly: "Grandpa wants to see me?"
"Well, there are some things, it's time for you to know", Sun Zhiyuan was still calm.
"Head of the family, it's not good for the head of the family, the Xia family has come to withdraw from the marriage", a disciple rushed in and shouted.
Sun Zhiyuan said lightly, "You don't need to let them in, just tell them that I agreed."
————
Holding Xia Zhiyi on the bed, Zhang Yang was looking at the rusty sword carefully.
"Husband, you said that you think this sword is not ordinary, but why can't I see it, and I don't feel this way", Xia Zhiyi asked on the shoulder of Zhang Yang.
"You are optimistic, ma'am",
The sword Zhang Yang held in his left hand leaned to the right, his right arm holding Xia Zhiyi was slightly raised, and his right hand slowly stroked the sword.
Then he turned his palm and said, "Look, it's not stained with rust, it's not strange."
"It's really a little strange," Xia Zhiyi said with her little hand gently beating her hand.
Zhang Yang immediately stood up and carefully placed the sword on the table next to the bed.
......。
The time of two days passed in a flash, and it was time for the new disciple initiation ceremony held by the Cangyuan Sword Sect every ten years.
The place where the initiation ceremony was held was the huge platform on the thousandth floor of the assessment at that time, and it was also the first platform that the main peak of the Cangyuan Sword Sect had to pass through from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain.
A place in the center of the platform was slightly raised, and more than five hundred new disciples stood in a row on it, waiting for the initiation ceremony to begin.
Because many people failed to find the sword and became outer disciples, outer disciples were not qualified to participate in the sect initiation ceremony, and they couldn't even get close to the main peak, so only these five hundred people remained. Unless it is a member of the family of an elder in the Sword Sect, the status of the family cannot be low, so he can be lucky enough to be close to the main peak.
Zhang Yang was dressed in black, with a tall posture, slashing immortals with his back slanted, standing in the middle of more than five hundred disciples. The position he stood was a little taller and larger than the others, and standing there alone made him even more heroic.
There is no relationship between the sword scabbard, and the sword body is wrapped in a thick layer of black cloth, revealing only the hilt. Carrying Zhang Yang behind him added a bit of majesty to him.
Seeing the many female disciples in the sect looking at Zhang Yang's eyes with brilliance, Xia Zhiyi only had a face full of pride.
She is not a stingy woman, and her man is liked by other women, which is something to be proud of.
As for whether Zhang Yang will like other women, she doesn't care, excellent men, three wives and four concubines, it's normal.
I like him, he likes himself, and that's enough.
This time it is different from the selection assessment and the Wanjian Mountain Sword Hunt only to some disciples, it is very formal, except for the Taishang Elder, the Xia Family Ancestor, and the Sun Family Ancestor, all the official disciples of the Sword Sect who have no task have been present.
Ye Wuxian sat upright in the center of the front, on the left and right, Xia Baichuan and Sun Zhiyuan were seated, and then the other six elders.
Behind the seats of the head and elder is the seat of Xia Jingtian's generation.
This time, there were a lot of new faces in their group that Zhang Yang had never seen, and they should all be people with high status in the sect.
After that, there are the family lineages of the major elders, and the disciples with great potential, who are ranked from high to low according to their cultivation talent and family status.
The people with low status in the elder family and the vassal forces of the elders have no seats in front of them, or even no seats, they are all standing on both sides of the platform, and they cannot rise into the air, and they are densely packed with people.
When everyone was in their rightful place, an elder got up from his seat,
Lang said loudly: "The entrance ceremony of the new disciples of the Cangyuan Sword Sect will start now."
Then everyone present, except for the head, stood up.
"Bang"..."Bang"...
The loud bell rang, just like when Zhang Yang won the first assessment, it rang nine times in a row.
The sound stopped, and everyone sat down.
Another elder stood up and said in a loud voice, "Next, please ask the head of the sect to give a lecture to the new disciples."
......
A ceremony of joining the sect is going on, and it has finally come to the end of the moment, which is also the most important moment, the selection of disciples.
The selection of disciples is selected by the elders in turn, and each elder chooses three people as the upper limit. Then, according to the level of identity strength, the next layer of selection is carried out until only the first place in the assessment is left.
As the first, Zhang Yang has the privilege, that is, he will not be chosen, and in the end, he can choose his master at will, and the other party cannot refuse, and no one should refuse.
Xia Zhiyi did not tell Zhang Yang that only the first could choose his own apprenticeship, because he was afraid that he would see that he was full of confidence in him and underestimate the other participants in the assessment, so as to avoid accidents.
The people around me are constantly being picked up by name.
There are those who are excited to be selected by the ideal master in their minds, there are also those who are secretly unhappy because the person who chooses them is not what they think, and there are also those whose faces are full of expressions that it doesn't matter who chooses me.
Because Zhang Yang has always lived in Yingjie Peak, he has nothing to do with these people, so he doesn't care who becomes whom's disciple at all.
In fact, although these people all live together, there is no intersection between them, and no one knows if they will become opponents in the future after being chosen.
Those who can come this far generally understand in their hearts that within the sect, especially this kind of sect, the most important thing is the struggle between people and factions.
I can't see much if I haven't officially joined the Sword Sect, and after I have participated in the Sect Ceremony and officially joined the Sword Sect, I have divided into different camps, and some things that are not known to outsiders will slowly emerge.
When Zhang Yang was left alone in the center of the platform, he once again became the focus of the audience.
