Since he chatted with the swordsman Murakami until late at night last night, Nano got up late today, and it was already noon when the two met and prepared to go up the mountain.

"The mountain road is steep, so you have to follow me. "Murakami.

Nano yawned, his face listless. Every time after eating the dreamless fruit, the next day Nano will always be like this, and only by resting well for a day or two can you recover your spirit.

"Really, I don't want to stay up late anymore. ”

Although Nano is not in a good state, how can the small mountain road stop his steps, and Nano walks like walking on the ground.

"The lad is so young, he should be as energetic as the sun at noon. Last night you just slept a little later, how can you be like an old man who is about to die. However, you are still very sharp with your hands and feet, and you can follow my footsteps on this steep mountain road. ”

"It's a lot better now, a few years ago, not only at night, but during the day I went to bed from morning to night. ”

"You're such a funny guy, hahaha. ”

On the way up the mountain, Murakami also gave a general introduction to the layout of Edgestone.

Located on the Tien Shan mountain range, the Imperial Sword Ridge is mainly composed of four adjacent hills. Three of them are in a straight line, from northwest to southeast, in order are Yuqi Ridge, Yujian Ridge, and Yuxin Ridge.

The middle of the ridge is the largest, and it is also the place where elementary swordsmanship is taught, there are about 500 students living on the ridge, and most of the students only spend time on the ridge until they return from school. Therefore, this is the most well-known place, and later it was also referred to all four ridges as Edgeworth.

Yuqiling is a place where young swordsmen and prospective swordsmen stay, and since there is only one swordsman every three years, there are not many people here, and there are only ten people in total.

Yuxinling is where the great sword master Yazi and some old swordsmen live, and in addition, there are five swordsmen who are in the prime of life, selected by Yazi, and are responsible for managing the specific affairs of the Imperial Sword Ridge. These five swordsmen are known as the swordsmen of Edgeworth, and Murakami is one of them.

The last ridge is called Yujin Peak, which is located behind the Imperial Sword Ridge and is the forbidden place of the Imperial Sword Ridge, and can only be entered with the permission of the Great Sword Master.

"I heard that there is only one cave there, and there are many ancient monsters sealed in it. ”

"Monsters?"

"Who knows? Maybe someone else made it up. Anyway, I've been to Yujian Ridge for so many years, and I haven't seen anyone go to Yushen Peak. ”

While speaking, Nano followed Murakami to Yuxinling. Entering a simple courtyard, Murakami stopped in front of a house.

"President!" Murakami knocked on the door.

"Is it Murakami? Come on in. A vicissitudes of voice came from inside the house.

Murakami pushed the door open, and Nano followed him into the house.

"Sit down. ”

I saw an old man with white hair sitting next to the fire, who was roasting the fire and warming his hands and feet.

Na Wu thought that this must be the great sword master Yazi, but I heard that Yazi was three hundred years old, and Na Wu had never seen the two-hundred-year-old village chief of Qiu Yan Village, and knew what a person would look like when he reached a certain age, but the old man in front of him had a ruddy complexion and strong spirits, except for his hair and wrinkles that looked a little old, he couldn't tell that he was over a hundred years old. However, the slightly trembling voice just now still showed that the person in front of him had lived for a long time.

"Who is this young man?"

"It's someone I met down the hill who wanted to ask the church president for something. ”

"I woke up in a cave four years ago, but I don't remember anything about what happened before, and the only thing that can identify me is the long knife next to me. Nano gave a brief introduction.

"Show me the knife. ”

Nano handed over the long knife in his hand. Yazi took it, slowly pulled out the nameless, and when he saw the transparent blade, Yazi couldn't help but show a surprised expression, and then Yazi's expression was solemn as if he fell into contemplation.

After a long time, Yazi put away Nameless and handed it to Nameless, and added some wood to the stove, and then slowly said, "That was five hundred years ago. At that time, there was a big cry in the world, he could freeze mountains and rivers, freeze life, and even freeze air. And almost, no force could stop him, not even the apostles. No one knows why he's so angry with humans, and he's never been so mad. He almost froze the entire human world, time seemed to stop running at that time, the rivers and air stopped flowing, and people were like statues, standing in place and stopping their hearts and thinking. ”

"How come I haven't heard anyone talk about it when I'm so old?" and what does it have to do with my name?" asked Murakami, puzzled.

Yazi paused, and continued to speak slowly: "I don't know who it is, but it's definitely not an apostle, who actually defeated Na Ji and saved the entire human race. After his death, the world returned to normal, and people acted as if nothing had happened, and the only thing that puzzled people was that the climate jumped directly from winter to summer. But there are also a very small number of people who knew about the existence of the gang before it was frozen, and after the thaw, they understood the whole story. And at that time, the great swordsman of Edgeworth Ridge was one of them. ”

"I see!" Murakami sighed.

"If my guess is correct, this blade must have been made of air left over from the time, which had not thawed. ”

After Yazi finished speaking, Murakami was shocked, in the auction before, Murakami had also seen it, that knife was as sharp as clay, how could it be air. However, remembering that Nano added later, that it can be dyed, and the blade is very light as if it has no weight, Murakami suddenly realized that the freezing that Yazi said was not cryogenic freezing, but simply stopping movement, more like time freezing. If the air time of the blade is stopped, the air inside as a whole, the individual molecules are relatively stopped, and it is impossible for any external force to change their relative positions, so the blade will be indestructible. Unless the external force is strong enough to change the time inside and let the time inside flow again.

After Yazi finished speaking, Mingwu became confused again, even if Yazi was right, but it was five hundred years ago, what does it have to do with his current identity? But this knife is the only clue, if the knife can't give an answer, then he will probably never remember who he is.

Yazi seemed to see Mingwu's thoughts, and said: "Young man, since you have a relationship with swords, it is better to stay and learn swordsmanship, maybe you can think of something." ”

Nano was stunned, thinking that he had nowhere to go, so he agreed.

"But Nano looks like he's almost thirty, so wouldn't it be too late to learn swordsmanship now?" Murakami said.

"You don't have to worry about this, I can feel the huge aura contained in his body, like a sea of sea, but the sea water is much shallower than usual, and there is a huge whirlpool on the sea, which is violently absorbing the aura from the outside. It's the first time I've seen such a convergent aura. If one day the sea returns to its former turmoil, it will be unmatched. ”

Hearing Yazi's description, Murakami didn't say anything more. It's just that Murakami didn't feel a trace of aura from Nagaku, let alone the sea.

Later, Murakami realized that what Yazi said today was not an excuse to leave Nano, and Nano's strength was indeed as Yazi said.

Now Murakami can't feel it, because he himself was in the period when his qi was at its peak, and his aura overflowed and diverged, and he couldn't feel the absorption of Nano's convergent and cohesive aura. And Yazi is already in his twilight years, his momentum is extremely weak and conservative, and the outside world can be keenly aware of a little bit of absorption of it, not to mention the aura that is like a whirlpool on the sea that can swallow a giant ship.

Don't go over, Nano entered the Imperial Sword Ridge to learn swordsmanship under Murakami's arrangement. As a result, Yujianling welcomed the oldest student to enter the school.
