Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Trial of the Sword Pavilion
One stone stirs up a thousand waves.
The news that Qin Feiling was going to restart the Liuli Pavilion soon spread throughout the large and small circles in Yanjing City, and for a while, almost all the people who could be involved with the court were talking about this matter.
After all, Qin Feiling has been away from Beijing for 20 years, and there are even few connections, fame and influence back then, and even those who were surprised to build Liuli Pavilion with him at the beginning thought that Qin Feiling had died a long time ago, and now he is leaving, even if Liuli Pavilion is really rebuilt, how many people can respond?
And most of today's young people, in fact, have never heard of the name of Liuli Pavilion, even if they have heard of it, they have never seen the endless style of Liuli Pavilion, for them, it doesn't matter what Liuli Pavilion is, in fact, Qin Feiling doesn't have much influence on who he is, and even they don't understand that the older generation will take Qin Feiling and Liuli Pavilion so seriously, in the eyes of these people, Qin Feiling is just a clown who jumps off the beam, and will soon be like those people, just a stepping stone on his own bright future。
However, what happened after that seemed to be a little unexpected, I didn't expect that the matter of restarting the Liuli Pavilion really began to ferment in the circle, and the first batch of corresponding calls turned out to be those who are now wavering in the main battle faction.
Then, Qin Feiling began to visit various famous families and magnates, and all of these people he visited were all noble people who could be ranked among the top in the capital! Although some people have stayed away from the court, their personal influence is far from immeasurable, but looking at those disciples, there are countless people with real power on the way, and this alone makes many people want to see each other.
However, these people talked to Qin Feiling without exception, and some wealthy giants bluntly stood on Qin Feiling's side, which made countless people waiting to see the joke fall under their jaws, and for a while, the entire circle in the capital began to be turbulent.
During this time, Lin Qi has been by Qin Feiling's side and has met all kinds of powerful people, but these people's attitudes towards their sixth master are extremely polite without exception, and Lin Qi also discovered for the first time that Qin Feiling, the sixth master uncle, has such a huge power hidden in his body.
Such days lasted until ten days later, because on this day, Qin Feiling was actually summoned by Emperor Yang!
Because of the previous incident, Lin Qi could not continue to follow Qin Feiling into the palace to face the saint, but according to Qin Feiling's meaning, since it has reached this point, there should be no one who will take his life again at such a juncture, because this is not only Qin Feiling's matter alone, but also about the face of the court, and the prestige of Emperor Yang, if he really killed Qin Feiling when Emperor Yang summoned him, it would be tantamount to slapping Emperor Yang in the face, with Emperor Yang's character, he was afraid that he would have to drag out the mastermind behind the scenes, so now it is the safest。
But Qin Feiling, Lin Qi can only let the sixth master Bo Shi do it, for a while, Lin Qi can only temporarily relax, and at this moment, Zhang Xiao came back.
After Zhang Xiao came back, he didn't choose to rest, but directly found Lin Qi and Firefly, and said his own suggestions.
He hoped that by using this time, Hotaru could challenge the Sword Pavilion!
The Sword Pavilion in Zhang Xiao's mouth is not worthy of the Sword Pavilion itself, but the sword tower that stands in the Sword Pavilion, also known as the Sword Pavilion Trial!
The Tower of Swords was the original Sword Pavilion itself, and then these houses and courtyards were slowly repaired and expanded in order to cope with more situations and gradually growing influences.
The tower is a towering pavilion divided into 25 floors, each with its own name. Starting from the first layer, every three floors are divided into a realm, the first layer is the tower keeper, the second layer is the library pavilion, the third layer is the sword storage room, and so on, the three layers are a cycle, until the twenty-fourth floor.
Each time you ascend to a realm, the stronger the tower keeper is, the more precious and rare the corresponding collection of books, and the sharper but powerful the Tibetan sword.
And the twenty-fifth floor of the Sword Pavilion is the place where the previous pavilion masters of the Sword Pavilion participated in the sword enlightenment, but the place where the successive pavilion masters handed over, and it is really here, it is said that if someone wants to challenge the position of the Sword Pavilion master, they only need to climb the stairs to come here, but until now, no one has ever been able to do it.
Therefore, when Zhang Xiao proposed that Firefly challenge the Sword Pavilion, everyone was still very surprised, after all, such an invitation is generally only applicable to the disciples in the Sword Pavilion, as well as the guests who have contributed to the Sword Pavilion, neither of which does the Flying, but such an invitation is proposed by the Sword Pavilion Advocate Xiao, even if it is not in order, no one will speak out against it, not to mention that even Chen Zizheng, who is the most qualified to object, did not say anything.
"Isn't it good to let Xiao Qi go?"
Hearing Firefly's question, Zhang Xiao laughed.
"I know that you think about your family Xiao Qi, I hope he can become stronger and stronger, but from the current point of view, Lin Qi is not suitable, because he already has his own path, and has already gone far on this road, if it didn't reject my sword intent at the beginning, maybe there will be a chance now, but now he has chosen to take his own sword, then only he can rely on himself." ”
Seeing that Firefly seemed to be a little ignorant and still didn't know why, Zhang Xiao couldn't help but feel good and laughed loudly, so he raised his hand and touched Firefly's hair.
"Compared with Lin Qi, you are more suitable now, you are different from him, what you need is more knowledge, and more challenges, now you are not mature enough, if you want not to be left behind by Lin Qi, you can still help him, you must make yourself strong as soon as possible!"
After listening to Zhang Xiao's words, Firefly nodded with a heavy face, as to whether it was strong or not, whether it would be left behind by Lin Qi, Firefly was not worried, she was more concerned about whether she could help Lin Qi.
At this time, Lin Qi also walked up.
"Girl, don't worry, Senior Zhang won't harm us, but, of course, this also requires your consent, and I won't force you!"
Listening to Lin Qi's words, Firefly Li's eyes lit up, and she suddenly nodded, as if she had made up her mind.
"Xiao Qi, I'm going!"
"In that case, then everyone come with me, the trial of the Sword Pavilion is ready, but except for the firefly girl, everyone else needs to wait outside. ”
Chen Zizheng smiled slightly, so he walked out of the room first and led everyone to the outside of the Sword Tower, this was also the first time that Lin Qi and Firefly observed the Sword Pavilion at such a close distance, so it seems that this Sword Tower is really very spectacular.
"Do you just need Firefly to climb to the top of the tower?"
Looking at such a tall tower, Hotaru suddenly turned around and asked, this time, it amused everyone.
"If you want to climb to the top of the tower, I think you need at least ten years!" At this time, Zhang Xiao walked up to Firefly and said with a smile, "However, for now, you only need to pass the first floor, then go to the second floor to read the book, and then go to the fourth layer ten days later! If you succeed, you can go to the fifth floor to read the book, and then you can challenge the seventh layer in a month!"
After listening to Zhang Xiao's explanation, although Firefly didn't understand the reason, she didn't want to ask too much, in her opinion, as long as she completed Zhang Xiao's requirements and Lin Qi's requirements, these two people would definitely help her arrange everything.
"Then I'll go!"
As he spoke, Hotaru had already walked towards the Sword Pavilion.
Seeing Firefly running inside with her bare hands, Chen Zizheng was stunned for a moment.
"Firefly girl, your sword ......"
Before he finished speaking, he saw a flash of golden light behind Firefly, and in a trance, it seemed that a hand had reached over, and he saw Firefly reach out and hold a long sword in his hand.
Chen Zizheng was already stunned, completely unaware of what was happening, while Zhang Xiao stood aside and smiled slightly.
Just outside the Sword Tower, a sword house has been built a long time ago, the house is complete with all the utensils, and the tea has already been prepared, and it looks like it is prepared for the people waiting outside the Sword Pavilion.
After everyone sat down, they began to drink tea, and at this time, Chen Zizheng finally had the opportunity to talk to Zhang Xiao alone.
"Hey, Zhang Xiao, what you just said wouldn't be true, right?"
"What, you think that girl can't get past the first floor?"
"I'm not talking about this, but what you said, the firefly girl has to go up to the twenty-fifth floor, and it only takes ten years!
Hearing this, Zhang Xiao took a sip of tea from his cup, and then smiled slightly.
"You say this, of course it's true, in terms of her current entry and talent, ten years is not much, if before this, this girl can break through to the grandmaster, then it can only be another matter. ”
"Of course I'm not too little, but I'll ask you again, you don't really have the idea, you want to cultivate this girl as the heir of the Sword Pavilion!"
When he spoke, Chen Zizheng deliberately lowered his voice, for fear that Lin Qi, who was sitting on the other side, would hear it, but after Zhang Xiao listened, he suddenly smiled and looked through the window, thinking about the Sword Pavilion Tower.
"In that case, why not?"
......
Firefly approached the Tower of the Sword Pavilion, and the two gates in succession came to a circular hall.
In front of the hall, there is a plaque hanging on the door, with the word "ask the sword" written on it, and I want to come to the twenty-fifth floor of the Sword Pavilion, and each layer has its own name, so this should be the name of the first floor.
After stepping into the hall, you can see a large door opposite, in front of the door, a person is sitting upright, wearing the unique black and white sword robe of the Sword Pavilion.
"Hello, I'm Hotaru, are you the tower keeper on this floor?"
Hearing the voice of the firefly, the person on the other side slowly raised his head, only to see that this person was a little older, his hair was half gray and half white, and the wrinkles on his face had appeared, and his eyes were closed at this time, as if he had an eye disease.
"It's you, girl, I didn't expect to finally meet again. ”
"Hey, uncle, it's you!"
This person didn't expect the other party to recognize him so quickly, so he also laughed, looking very happy, in fact, he was none other than the blind swordsman Song Ziru who helped Zhang Luoluo and blocked Firefly in Ruixiang Temple in Emperor Wu City.
I think that at the beginning, Song Ziru was defeated in the hands of Firefly, and then he was relieved by Firefly's inadvertent on-demand, and suddenly became enlightened, and was determined to return to the Sword Pavilion, reappear to begin, and there was also a firefly to make an agreement, and then to compete again in the Sword Pavilion, but I didn't expect it to finally come true today.
After Song Ziru returned to the Sword Pavilion, he practiced hard and honed his will, and finally lived up to his hard work, and the kendo realm made a new leap, and successfully defeated the previous generation of tower keepers and became the new guardian of the first layer, and because of this, he had the opportunity to compete with Firefly again.
Seeing acquaintances, Hotaru is also very happy.
"Uncle, it seems that you are very happy now!"
"Yes, girl, thanks to your understanding, but, even if you are kind to me, I will not release the water, this is the pride of a swordsman, I hope you can understand!"
Listening to Song Ziru's words, Hotaru nodded with a smile, and raised the enemy sword in his hand.
"Of course, uncle, I'm also strong now!"
As soon as Firefly's words fell, Song Ziru's figure had already moved first, only to see a flash of cold light, and a long sword instantly appeared under Song Ziru's cuffs.
"A sword soars into the sky, and ten thousand silver rays fall!"
The eyes stabbed with a sword, the eyes of the fireflies were smart, and in an instant, the sword had already attacked, only to hear a soft sound, and the two figures had already exchanged back and forth!
"The double sword breaks the tide of the sea, and the waves roll Shenzhou!"
At this time, Song Ziru's figure turned half a circle, and suddenly another cold light appeared, and this sword was actually stabbed out of his other hand!
It turned out that although this Song Ziru suffered from eye disease and couldn't see, he didn't expect that he was still a double swordsman!
Seeing that a sword was about to be stabbed, Firefly didn't look back at all, but turned the enemy sword back, Song Ziru's sword was impartially stabbed on the spine of the enemy sword, but it was difficult to advance an inch!
Song Ziru frowned, his figure had withdrawn, although he couldn't see with his eyes, but he could still see the unusual sword of Firefly in his heart.
At this time, Firefly had already turned around, and suddenly it struck at a fast speed, and it had already been slashed down with a sword!
"Uncle, look at my sword!"
Song Ziru seemed to know that it was powerful, and at this time he raised his sword to resist, but what he didn't expect was that in his heart, Firefly's sword suddenly disappeared!
How is this possible!
Of course, Song Ziru knew that it was impossible for the opponent's swordsman to disappear, but he didn't know what kind of method Firefly used to deceive his own heart, so he raised another sword at this time, but it was swung into the void!
When there was a sound, Song Ziru's wrist was numb, and the long sword in his right hand actually flew out of his hand, at this time, he only heard the sound of breaking the air in front of him, but the little girl's second sword was here again!
