Chapter 42: The Swordsman

Jing Xuan had never been to the library during the day, at this time, when Gu Xingyun came to the library with him, the majestic momentum of the library building in front of him made his heart involuntarily full of excitement, the library building has seven floors, the eaves of each floor are upturned, looking from a distance, the library building is like a big bird, with many wings about to fly into the air.

The library building is also very quiet during the day, no different from the night, Jing Xuan wanted to try to see if the key to the stone door of the library building could be opened, so he walked there, but Gu Xingyun stopped Jing Xuan and said, "Where are you going?"

Although Jing Xuan still had a trace of tears on his cheeks at this time, his mood was always a little calmer than just now, and Jing Xuan replied to Gu Xingyun and said, "Master, this door is often open. ”

Gu Xingyun involuntarily shook his head and said: "The general key of this stone door cannot be opened, and there is only one set of stone locks and keys in the world of the stone door, and how can the door of this library be opened at will." ”

Jing Xuan had already run forward, he pushed the door, no matter how much effort he used, he really couldn't push, he turned the stone lock with his hand, and there was no reaction at all, Jing Xuan couldn't help it after tossing for a long time.

Gu Xingyun looked at Jing Xuan calmly and asked, "Say, Jing Xuan, where did you learn your spell?"

When Jing Xuan heard this, he turned around and walked towards Gu Xingyun, he had a grievance in his heart, and the tears were about to come out again, Jing Xuan really didn't know how to tell Gu Xingyun now, Jing Xuan was in tears, but he saw a familiar shadow in the tears walking towards here from a distance.

Jing Xuan originally thought it was his own delusion, but when a few tears fell from his eyes, he could see clearly, in front of him was the old man who took him to the library at night, Jing Xuan wiped the tears from his face, saw the old man clearly, pointed to the place not far behind Gu Xingyun, and said happily: "Master, look, the old man is here." ”

Gu Xingyun was very puzzled, he didn't know who Jing Xuan was talking about, he turned around and saw an old man with a hunched back and a wrinkled face like tree bark in the distance. Gu Xingyun didn't know who this old man was, but he felt that it seemed a little familiar, but there were also many old people in this Cloud Ridge, and Gu Xingyun couldn't react for a while.

The old man walked to him, Jing Xuan couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, he ran forward, supported the old man, and said, "Old man, you are here." ”

The old man looked at Jing Xuan's face full of tears, and the corners of his mouth showed a smile, just because of the wrinkles in his skin, the smile looked very reluctant, the old man suddenly raised his head slowly, staring at Gu Xingyun, although his eyes were small, but they were full of majesty, Jing Xuan had never seen the old man so serious, and he suddenly felt a little strange.

Gu Xingyun felt that this old man seemed to be very familiar just now, and at this time, he looked at the familiar eyes of the old man, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

The old man opened his mouth and said, "Xingyun, you are here. ”

The old man's voice aroused the deepest memories in Gu Xingyun's heart, his expression suddenly became a little nervous, he hurriedly bowed, because of excitement, his voice seemed very panicked, and said, "Sword master, you are really a sword master." ”

The swordsman coughed a few times and said, "What, do you all think I'm dead?"

Gu Xingyun was shocked and said: "Don't dare, I really don't dare, I just heard the head talk about it, the sword master has not shown up for decades, and I thought the sword master went somewhere else." ”

The sword master said, "I have always stayed in this library and have never left. ”

Gu Xingyun said: "The swordsman's spells are so strong that of course we can't detect them with our spells. ”

At this time, Jing Xuan stood aside, and was simply stunned by the conversation in front of him, Master Gu Xingyun was very arrogant on weekdays, but he didn't expect to see this old man known as the sword master so respectful, not at all like Gu Xingyun's usual character.

The sword master glanced at Jing Xuan at this time and said, "This disciple learned a little spell with me in this library, I saw that his spell was lowly and he had nothing to learn, and I saw that he was kind by nature, so I wanted to instruct him a few times, did you misunderstand him?"

When Gu Xingyun heard this, he said with an embarrassed face: "This, sword master, it turns out that Jing Xuan's spells were really learned from here, I know, it seems that what Jing Xuan said is true." ”

The sword master said: "This baby is very clever, I like it very much, if there is any misunderstanding between you, I will explain it today, don't be embarrassed by this child." ”

Gu Xingyun hurriedly said: "Don't dare, don't dare, this Jing Xuan was originally also my apprentice, I Gu Xingyun treats my apprentice equally, how can I embarrass him? ”

Jing Xuan said on the side: "Grandpa, Master is very good to us on weekdays. ”

The swordsman nodded kindly, let out a long hum, and said, "That's good, that's good, Xingyun's swordsmanship is also superb, and it's been seen all these years, so I guess it's also a lot better." ”

Gu Xingyun didn't dare to have a trace of disrespect, and said: "Compared to my swordsmanship, it is really not worth mentioning. ”

Jing Xuan has never seen Gu Xingyun look so respectful since he entered the door of Gu Xingyun, if he was in a place where no one was at this time, Jing Xuan could really smile and close his mouth, and his happiness blossomed.

The sword master ignored Gu Xingyun at this time, but said to Jing Xuan: "Little baby, how are you doing with this spirit snake swordsmanship?"

Jing Xuan saw that Gu Xingyun was silent on the side, so he was not so timid, and said to the sword master: "Old man, it's just that the last few tricks are not so thorough, and the others have been almost learned." ”

The sword master nodded with satisfaction, his face wrinkled again, that was his smile, the sword master said: "That's good, that's good, today your master is here, I think, in the future, you can't come to this library at will, fortunately, you have understood the essence of this spirit snake swordsmanship, as long as you ponder diligently in the future, the cultivation of swordsmanship will definitely be successful." ”

Jing Xuan secretly glanced at Gu Xingyun, and saw that Gu Xingyun's face was very respectful, and he couldn't see a trace of dissatisfaction, so Jing Xuan replied to the sword master and said, "Old man, I know, I will practice diligently in the future, and I dare not live up to my grandfather's expectations of me." ”

Hearing this, the sword master's face was almost crumpled into a piece of dry bark, and even his eyes were about to be lost, he nodded, but coughed loudly, he had to take out the rag, wipe the saliva off his mouth, and said: "Very good, very good, you are a smart doll, your master's swordsmanship is superb, you will learn from him in the future, with your qualifications, you will also have the day when the blue is better than the blue." ”

When Jing Xuan heard this, he was shocked, the sword master said that this blue is better than the blue, doesn't it mean that one day his swordsmanship will be better than his master Gu Xingyun? Jing Xuan was a little worried in his heart, but Gu Xingyun stood there without any emotion.

The sword master said: "Actually, there are a lot of swordsmanship in this library, but because it is too complicated, the head of the sect actually does not allow the disciples to come to this library without permission, Xingyun, I like this little baby, this matter is over like this, don't punish him after you go back, if the head of the house knows in the future, let him come to me, I will explain to him, how?"

Gu Xingyun hurriedly said: "Since the sword master has said so, how dare I embarrass him." ”

The swordsman took a deep breath, and it seemed that his body was a little weaker than just now, he turned around and walked into the distance, and said, "That's it, I'm tired." ”

Jing Xuan wanted to run forward and say a few more words to the sword master, but because Gu Xingyun was standing aside, standing in a proper manner, Jing Xuan didn't want to run forward again, Jing Xuan didn't know why this Gu Xingyun was so in awe when he saw the sword master, Jing Xuan said loudly: "Old man, you are good to go." ”

The sword master walked a few steps, and Jing Xuan's voice had just fallen, and in the blink of an eye, the sword master had disappeared.

At this time, Jing Xuan was very worried in his heart, he didn't know how Gu Xingyun would treat him, Gu Xingyun's demeanor just now was already unusual, but Gu Xingyun seemed to have something in his heart, he was silent for a while, and then said to Jing Xuan: "Although your spirit snake sword technique is learned from the library building, but this sword technique is not the spell of the main gate of Yunwuling now, you should use it sparingly in the future, otherwise it will cause misunderstanding among other disciples, but it will not be good." ”

Jing Xuan listened to Gu Xingyun's tone very gently, and the doubts in his heart dissipated all of a sudden, and he nodded like a rattle, and said, "Master, I know, I listen to your words, and I won't use this spell easily." ”

Gu Xingyun actually showed a smile on his face at this time, he looked at the sword master and disappeared into the distance, and said, "The sword master is still alive, if the head of the sect knows, he will definitely be very happy." ”

Jing Xuan said: "Master, who is this sword master?" ”

Gu Xingyun said: "He is the senior brother of the head of the family, and he knows all kinds of spells in the world, and he is a very great person. ”

Jing Xuan thought to himself, listening to Gu Xingyun like this, this swordsman's spell is really unfathomable, usually just calling him grandpa, grandpa, I only think that he is an old man with a weak body and a weak body, and he knows some big truths, but he didn't expect that he is an unfathomable master of spells, it is really unseemly.
