Chapter 30: Ziyuan
In the blink of an eye, it has been a month since the name came to Yujian Ridge, and the weather has begun to get warmer. During this period, Ming Wuzhi became more and more familiar with Ziyuan, and the two were at the same level and had the same mentor.
But in terms of sword qi, although he learned a lot of methods of practicing qi, he seemed to be born insulated, and he never felt the existence of a trace of intermediate qi in his body.
Some people in the graduating class have already begun to reach the Breaking Domain and step into the Critical Domain, but they can't control the mediator qi.
In the past month, I have eaten well and slept soundly, and my spirit has recovered a lot. The previous battle losses from the Twilight Province to the Qi Kingdom have almost completely recovered.
At noon on this day, when Nano came out of Yuxinling, he saw a young woman wearing a black robe embroidered with plum blossoms and a few auspicious clouds entering Yuxinling, although they only met by chance and glanced at it, but Nano was still shocked by the woman's beauty.
The woman's heart-shaped face, thin eyebrows and phoenix eyes, pretty nose and red lips, black hair, like a bun, and a jewel on the hairpin on her head, coupled with no smile, looks extremely cold.
Back at the Imperial Sword Ridge, Na Wu asked Zi Yuan about this, and Zi Yuan smiled and said, "That woman is a person from the temple, her name is Qi Die, and she often sends news to the temple. ”
"The people of the temple, does Edgeworth Ridge have anything to do with the temple?"
"You've been here for a month, so you don't even know about this. "Yujian Ridge was founded about 2,000 years ago, and its founder, 'Reading the Past', was originally the inheritor of the temple. Later, the temple maintained contact with Edgeworthy Ridge until today. ”
"Inheritor?"
"Since ancient times, the temple has been dedicated to imparting the wisdom of the ancient original gods, and every ten years, when the ancient original gods were still alive, several people would be summoned to the temple to follow the ancient original gods to practice. Those who can stay in the temple after the practice are called inheritors. It's just that the current temple, the inheritor is completely up to them. ”
"This time, I guess something happened again, I want to ask Edgeworth Ridge to help. Ziyuan added.
"I see. ”
"By the way, what did President Yazi summon you to do?"
"About the last time you asked me to join the Special Services Agency, the 'Hidden Ministry'. ”
"Did the Spring Dragon Palm Sword Master agree?"
"Well, Yazi said let me run around, maybe I can find some clues about my background. ”
"That's great! I have one more backer!" Zi Yuan exclaimed happily.
"What the hell are you going out for?"
"All kinds of things, you'll know soon, it's a lot more fun than staying here all day. ”
"Really?"
............
Yuxinling, Yazi's room, Qi Die handed a letter to Yazi, Yazi opened it and looked at it, then showed a worried look, and after contemplating for a while, Yazi said, "Tell your master, we will send a sword master to Dongzhou Kingdom as soon as possible to meet the people of the temple." ”
After praying for a slight salute, he left in a hurry.
After Qi Die left, Yazi immediately summoned the five sword masters, including Murakami.
The five people are: Murakami, who is responsible for the annual enrollment and teaching personnel arrangements of the Imperial Ridge, Zhiyun, who is responsible for the financial and logistical affairs of the Imperial Ridge, Maruzhang, who is responsible for the security and defense of the Imperial Ridge, Wenliu, who is responsible for the design of the teaching curriculum and examination examination, and Quanlong, who is responsible for special affairs, communication with the outside world, and personnel arrangements for stationed abroad.
All five of them were in their fifties and sixties, and they were all amazingly powerful.
"President, what's the matter with us being summoned in such a hurry?" Quan Long asked.
"There was a rebellion in the eastern coastal country of Dongzhou. Yazi said.
"Whew!" all five of them were shocked.
"What about the apostles, didn't they show up?" continued Quanlong.
"The latest news, he has been eliminated by the apostles. However, "
"But?"
However, the disaster caused by the devastation has not stopped, and continues to spread to the surrounding countries. The temple has sent a lineage to investigate, but I'm afraid it won't turn out too well. ”
"Why hasn't the disaster stopped when it's been wiped out?" ......?" Murakami said.
"If the guess is correct, it should be that some apostles were infected by the apostles in the process of eliminating the apostles and inherited the abilities of the apostles, while the other apostles would not destroy the infected apostles. So, I'm afraid we'll have to solve it ourselves. ”
"This ......," the five men had worried looks on their faces.
"According to the temple, at present, the Wish and Death Front has also sent people to the Dongzhou Kingdom. This is a matter of life and death for all mankind, and I hope that the five of you, together with all the swordsmen who currently have no teaching tasks, will go to the Eastern Continent to help eliminate the infected apostles. ”
"However, in this way, Edgeworth Ridge will be left undefended. If something happens, there's no way to deal with it. Maru Zhang, who is in charge of security, said.
"You don't have to worry about this, I will personally handle the affairs of Edgeworth Ridge during this time. In addition, Quanlong, hasn't your hidden department recruited a lot of swordsmen with good strength in recent years? With them, plus there are more than a dozen swordsmen left in the Imperial Sword Ridge who are responsible for teaching, it will be fine. ”
............
In the afternoon, Na Wu and Zi Yuan were about to go to the Imperial Qi Ridge to find Hua Ying Sword Master, report that Na Wu had joined the Hidden Division, and when they arrived at the Moon Bridge, the two of them saw the messenger of the temple, Qi Die, who was talking to Zhao Tianxing. It seems that the two are close.
Namoto couldn't help but be puzzled.
"Haha, you're jealous!" Zi Yuan said with a smile.
Then, Ziyuan raised his head and picked his nose, deliberately taunting in a strange voice, "Brother Mingwu, you still have a dead heart, they are a natural pair." Besides, you're old, what are you thinking about other people's eighteen or nineteen-year-old girls?"
"No, I just want to know what's going on. ”
According to Senior Brother Zhao Tianxing, both of them are from the northern winter country, and they grew up together since childhood, and they are childhood sweethearts. A few years ago, there was a disaster in his hometown and he fled, and one was taken in by the temple and the other by the Edgeworth. Later, by chance, they met again at Yujian Ridge. A pair of bitter mandarin ducks!"
At this time, after talking with Zhao Tianxing, Qi Die walked towards the bridge. Nano and Ziyuan also walked towards the opposite bank, and the three met in the middle of the bridge, and Nano glanced at Qi Butterfly again. Qi Die bowed slightly to the two of them, and then walked quickly forward.
"Senior Brother Tianxing is so blessed! There is such a beautiful confidante in the face, we are so envious!" Ziyuan said deliberately.
Tianxing ignored Zi Yuan, "Is there anything you have to do when you come to the Imperial Qi Ridge?"
"We came to find Huaying Sword Master, and today, the Quanlong Palm Sword Master has agreed to let me join the Hidden Division. ”
"That's great! It just so happens that I'm also a member of the Hidden Division, as well as Huaying Sword Master, so we should be able to act together in the future. Tianxing said.
"Speaking of which, how many people are in the Hidden Division?" asked Nanoi.
"The hidden department is in charge of the Quanlong Palm Sword Master, and it is divided into two sections: intelligence and deacons, and three sword masters are in charge. Among them, there are two sword masters in the deacon section. You instructed the sword master Hua Ying, that is, the first class of sword masters in the Deacon Section, and now the members of the first class, plus the three of us, there are four people in total. The second class of the deacon section is in charge of the sword master of the Hong Gong, and there are also three people below. The Intelligence Section, which is in charge of the Song Ming Swordsman, has five swordsmen below. ”
Farewell to Tianxing, the two came to Huaying Swordsman's residence. But the door was locked, as if he was not at home. Ziyuan shouted, kicked the door hard, and saw that there was no response, so the two had to go back stupidly. Ziyuan and Nano had already noticed something unusual at this time.
Sure enough, that night, Yako summoned all the remaining swordsmen, as well as the swordsmen who held positions in the various ministries, for an emergency meeting.
At this time, they didn't know that all the young swordsmen had gone out, and the Imperial Sword Ridge was like a defenseless paper house at the moment, and some wind and grass were unbearable.
However, Yazi did not explain the reason why the sword master went out.
"I also hope that you will do your job well when the main swordsman is away. Yazi finished speaking and left.
On the way back to the dormitory, Namu asked, "Is there any enemy in Edgeworthy?"
Zi Yuan chuckled, "You should have heard of the Imperial God Peak, when the Great Sword Master founded the Imperial Sword Ridge in the past, he brought a lot of treasures from the temple and hid there. Due to the reputation of Edgeworth, almost no one dared to steal the treasures there. However, now...... It's hard to say!"
............
The next day, seeing that the students were all in class normally, everything was as usual, and Nano no longer worried.
However, it wasn't long before the Hidden Department received a new mission.
