"You have to hold on to my hand......" The woman's face was full of pear blossoms and rain, infinitely tender.

"Who the hell are you?" In a void space, Cheng Xiaohu tried to reach out and grab it, but only caught a piece of darkness.

"You have to hold on to my hand......" The woman's figure gradually blurred, only the voice echoed in her ears, lingering and resentful.

…………

"Huh?" Cheng Xiaohu slowly opened his eyes and woke up from his sleep.

The surrounding nothingness had vanished, and the trees were full of green leaves.

Cheng Xiaohu lay on the trunk of the tree, woke up but did not get up, but still lay on the tree and looked at the green leaves overhead.

"Who is that woman?" Cheng Xiaohu muttered to himself. "And why is it in my dreams?"

I don't know when the woman would always appear in his dreams, repeating the resentful and lingering words to him.

After thinking about it for a long time, Cheng Xiaohu still didn't think of the answer, and he simply didn't bother to think about it, he was a free and easy person, and he would never be bothered by these unfigured questions, so he continued to lie on the tree in a daze.

"Bang!" Suddenly, there was a loud noise, startling the summer cicadas in the trees.

"Oops!" Cheng Xiaohu only felt a pain in his body, and in the next moment, his body was out of balance, and the whole person fell from the tree and fell to the ground.

Cheng Xiaohu struggled to get up from the ground, only to see a pine cone standing quietly on the ground next to him.

Seeing this, Cheng Xiaohu looked around and shouted helplessly: "Senior sister, come out!" I know it's you! ”

"Hee-hee!" Behind the tree next to her, a slender girl walked out.

The girl looked like she was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with clear eyebrows and bright eyes, and she was very beautiful.

Ye Qing smiled and said, "Who told you to be lazy again, turn around and let the master see it, and you have to scold me for not urging you to practice!"

Cheng Xiaohu stretched his waist and said comfortably: "Come on!" The house has been so busy these days, and the master doesn't have time to take care of me! ”

"So you're lazy?" Hearing this, Ye Qing pointed at Cheng Xiaohu's forehead, and then said helplessly: "You! It's been five years since I practiced, right? But the result? But even the most important spell of our Tang Dynasty Mansion "Sweeping Thousands of Armies" can't be used, the last time the elite competition used a "Sweeping Two Armies", fortunately, the master has a strong psychological endurance, so he didn't get angry with you. ”

Ye Qing seemed to think of Cheng Boxian's glaring at Cheng Xiaohu angrily during the elite competition, and he couldn't stop giggling.

After laughing for a while, Ye Qing stopped, pretended to be serious, and said, "I'll tell you!" If you don't fight for a little bit of anger, and then use a "sweep of the two armies" in the big competition next year, the master will really scold me! You know, I'm like you at this time, but I've even learned the three spells in the true recipe of "Wen Tao Wu Luo"! ”

"Then I can't compare to you! Even the master said that you are a cultivation genius that is rare to see in a hundred years! Cultivation is faster than me, that's how it should be! Cheng Xiaohu said righteously.

"You!" Ye Qing couldn't help but get angry: "It's going to be flamboyant!" If you cultivate harder, you won't be able to catch up with me......"

"That's it! All right! I know! I will definitely cultivate hard in the future, live up to the cultivation of my master, and live up to my senior sister's hard work! Cheng Xiaohu was afraid that she would continue to be verbose, so he hurriedly interjected and interrupted her.

"But, senior sister, is there something wrong with you looking for me so suddenly?"

When Ye Qing heard this, he suddenly came to his senses, clapped his hands and said, "It's all you, so much so that I almost forgot about the business!"

"The master told the two of us to hurry up and go to the house!" Ye Qing hurriedly pulled Cheng Xiaohu and ran towards the Tang Dynasty Mansion.

The two of them trotted all the way through the gate of the Tang Dynasty Mansion, ran to the extremely wide square behind the gate, stopped their speed, and slowly walked forward.

This is the rule of the Tang Dynasty government, unless it is a particularly important matter, in charge of this martial arts training square, no rush, let alone the sword flying.

The two walked to the center of Lianwu Square, where two stone statues stood quietly, and the two walked to the front of the square and bowed slowly to the two statues.

This is also the door rule of the Tang Dynasty, no matter what the identity is, as long as it is a disciple of the Tang Dynasty, when he sees these two statues, he must bow down. Because, the owners of these two statues are the two most respected people in the Tang Dynasty.

Among the two statues, the one in front of him is fierce and tall, with a leopard's head and tiger eyes, thick eyebrows and thick beard, and a Xuanhua axe in his hand is dozens of zhang long, and the axe handle touches the ground, which seems to press down the surrounding ground.

Cheng Yanjin, the founding general of the Tang Dynasty and one of the twenty-four meritorious heroes on the list of Lingyan Pavilion's meritorious heroes, was awarded the title of Lu Guogong, and was also the founder and first head of the Tang Dynasty's official mansion.

The statue behind Cheng Biting Jin is a man, the man is slender, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, sharp edges and corners between the outlines, holding a long sword in his left hand behind him, while his chin is raised, his lips are slightly open, and the wine jug on his right hand is raised, as if he is pouring wine into his mouth, his lips are slightly hooked, and his eyebrows are arrogant.

The cold arrogance and loneliness exude the heroic spirit of the world, and the solitary independence has a domineering spirit that is proud of the world.

Cheng Xiaohu looked at the man's statue, his heart was at a loss, and an indescribable feeling emerged from his heart.

I don't know why, every time he stands in front of this statue, the resentful and lingering words will sound in his heart, "You have to hold my hand......"

"Senior sister, why did you say that a peerless figure like the Sword Master Ancestor fell?" Cheng Xiaohu said confusedly.

The sword master ancestor in Cheng Xiaohu's mouth is naturally the owner of the statue, the first chief disciple of the Tang Dynasty Mansion.

Swordsman, the first disciple of Cheng Biting Jinmen, a peerless genius who worshiped under Cheng Biting Jinmen at the age of six, according to legend, he only took a year to practice the sword spells of the Tang Dynasty, and later followed Cheng Biting Jin to follow the Tang Emperor to conquer the world, and made an indelible contribution to the unification of the world.

After the Tang Emperor established the Tang Dynasty, when he was rewarded for meritorious deeds in the main hall, he wanted to be named the general of the hussars, but the swordsman was free and easy by nature, and naturally he did not want to be an official in the Golden Palace, so he resigned from the reward, bid farewell to the master, and traveled alone in the rivers and lakes.

On the rivers and lakes, the swordsman is jealous and hateful, chivalrous and righteous, and he is so uneven, he also made a lot of friends, and has met everyone including the chief disciple of Huasheng Temple, Xiao Yaosheng, and the chief disciple of the Dragon Palace, Prince Long.

When Chi You was born, he was the first to rush to the God of War Mountain, relying on his world-class cultivation, he fought with Chi You alone for a long time, forcing him to be unable to leave the God of War Mountain, so that he could not return to his body.

It wasn't until the twelve people from the twelve sects such as Xiaoyaosheng arrived that everyone, led by the swordsman, opened the Xuanhuang Wuji Array, and then resealed Chi You.

Although all twelve of them eventually exhausted their spiritual essence and fell, their contributions to the Three Realms are remembered by the world.

"I don't know!" Ye Qing looked at the statue, and the feeling in his heart was not lower than Cheng Xiaohu's at all, after all, heroes have loved beauties since ancient times, how many women in this world can not worship peerless heroes such as swordsmen?

Ye Qing sighed and said, "Let's go!" The master is still waiting for us! ”

"Hmm!" The two walked all the way through the square, climbed the high stone steps, and came to the front of the hall.

There are a lot of elite disciples gathered in the hall, the disciples are standing in two rows on the left and right, there is a chair on the hall, and there is a majestic man sitting on the chair, the big man is full of beards, tiger head and leopard eyes, and the statue of Cheng Biting Jin outside is actually seven points similar.

Cheng Boxian, the grandson of Cheng Yanjin, the third-generation head of the Tang Dynasty, is a hereditary prince of Guangping County, with strong martial arts, and has been named the general of the Right Yulin Army ten years ago, and has won the trust of the royal family.

It was only later that Emperor Wu ascended the throne and changed the name of the country to Zhou by thunderous means, and the name of the Tang Dynasty was also changed to the Great Zhou, which aroused the dissatisfaction of many loyal ministers of the Tang Dynasty in the world, including Cheng Boxian's father, Cheng Chubi, the second-generation head of the Tang Dynasty.

Cheng Chubi couldn't bear to see the Cheng family's reputation of loyalty and kindness for generations destroyed, so he withdrew him from the disputes in the court on the grounds that he was old and frail and wanted to abdicate and establish Cheng Boxian as the head of the Tang Dynasty.

Cheng Boxian immediately succeeded to the position of head of the Tang Dynasty government, and in the next ten years, Cheng Boxian recruited disciples in the Tang Dynasty government, taught martial arts, and became a generation of grandmasters.

Ye Qing and Cheng Xiaohu saw that Cheng Boxian had his eyes closed, as if he was recuperating, so they quietly sneaked in from the door of the hall, and then stood quietly at the back of the crowd.

"Qing'er, Xiaohu. Why are you two here now? Cheng Boxian opened his eyes, like a tiger waking up, and when he opened his mouth, the sound was like thunder.

Cheng Xiaohu and Ye Qing were both shocked, and they didn't answer when they were in place.

Seeing this, Cheng Boxian probably understood seven or eight points in his heart, nine times out of ten it was because Cheng Xiaohu was lazy to sleep again, Ye Qing couldn't see it, so he teased him, and in the end, the two of them made both of them late.

Cheng Boxian pretended to be angry and shouted loudly: "Xiaohu, are you lazy again?"

Cheng Boxian's shout was like a thunderclap, and all the elite disciples immediately stood up straight, concentrating and holding their breath, and they didn't dare to gasp.

Only Ye Qing, who was standing beside Cheng Xiaohu, was extremely nervous.

Ye Qing and Cheng Xiaohu are both orphans, and the two grew up together in the Tang Dynasty Mansion since childhood, and their relationship is very deep.

Although Ye Qing usually likes to tease this naughty and lazy little junior brother, whenever Cheng Xiaohu has an accident, Ye Qing will be the first to stand up and help him resist.

Ye Qing didn't know that Cheng Boxian was pretending to be angry, and he was afraid that he would punish Cheng Xiaohu, so he hurriedly said: "No! Master, it's the disciple's reason, it's the disciple's delay on the way, which causes us to be late! ”

Cheng Xiaohu saw Ye Qing stand up and take the initiative to take responsibility, and he was moved in his heart, and also stood up and said: "Master, don't care about senior sister!" It's the disciple who is lazy to sleep that causes him to be late, so if you want to punish me, punish me! ”

"No, master! It's ...... me."

"Alright, alright!" Seeing that the two of them took the initiative to take responsibility, the only bit of anger in his heart disappeared, and he waved his hand and said, "You two go back and stand!"

The two of them were overjoyed when they heard this, and hurriedly returned to the crowd and stood honestly.

Cheng Boxian got up from his seat, looked at the elite disciples in the audience, and said loudly: "The main reason for calling your elite disciples over this time is to tell you that this month's master task has been released, and you can go to collect it later."

"And because most of the brave and above disciples in the mansion have rushed to Beiju Luzhou! Therefore, among the tasks you received this time, there are many brave disciples at the level! So you must be cautious in this mission, understand? ”

"Got it!" When the disciples heard this, they hurriedly surrendered their hands and obeyed the order.

"Hmm!" Cheng Boxian nodded with satisfaction. He wanted to wave his hand and tell them to stand down.

"Master, senior brother and sister, why are they all going to Beiju Luzhou?" Cheng Xiaohu poked his head out and asked curiously.

"Don't ask what you shouldn't!" Cheng Boxian glanced at him lightly and said, "Stand down!"

"Yes!" All the disciples withdrew from the hall one after another, but Cheng Boxian was the only one who was still sitting on the hall, closing his eyes and recuperating.

After a while, the wind howled outside the hall, and one person turned out to be flying all the way to the sword.

"Venerable Venerable! It's all clear! The white-clothed disciple knelt down on one knee and said respectfully.

"What's going on?"

"It's Demon Wind!" The disciple calmed down his inner breath and said word by word.

"Hehe, it's really him!" Cheng Boxian's eyes opened, and his eyes flashed: "It's okay!" What the Sword Master Ancestor has not completely completed, let us unscrupulous juniors complete it! ”

Cheng Boxian spread out his right hand, a blood-red big knife condensed out of thin air, the big knife exuded a blood-red light all over, the blade was wide and powerful, and an invisible power spread out from it, permeating every corner of the hall, and even the cloth was unconsciously swinging.
