Chapter 2 Autumn Falling City

Yunmeng Mountain, just outside the outskirts of Qiuluo City, is a holy place admired by swordsmen in the world.

Although the distance is not far away, it is probably already dark at this time, so Shen Guo plans to stay in the city for one night today and go to Baishan early the next morning.

This time, the master allowed him to bring the sword with him, and it was said that his swordsmanship had become small, and now, the power could be freely retracted. But Shen Kuang knew that this was just a disguise, probably because he would be beaten in this trip, and the master felt that he could fight back with a sword!

Alas, after all, he, the master, still knows that he feels sorry for his apprentice!

Regarding the unknown that he will face in the future, Shen is not worried at all. The big deal is to be beaten, Yunmengshan, the big family can't really respond to his proposal! Even if he really agreed, he could run, and when he followed the master to do bad things all these years, he would have practiced light skills a long time ago, otherwise he would be chased by the big dog!

In front of the stall, Shen Jing was eating beef while thinking about the happy days ahead, he still had the one hundred taels, which was a huge amount of money and could do a lot of things!

After a hearty feast and a full drink, he took his burden on his back and continued on his way.

"Little Er, don't look for it!" Shen Guo waved his hand back proudly as he walked. Rich people have to have the boldness of rich people, and those who are literate and penniish are not a matter in the eyes of Shen Jing now!

Xiao Er smiled heartily, knowing that he could get a few more rewards. So, while picking up the silver coins on the table, he shouted respectfully in the direction where Shen Guo had gone: "Childe, you go slowly!" โ€

It's just that when he picked up the nineteen copper plates scattered on the table, he looked at the already blurred figure in the distance very incomprehensibly, and immediately came back to his senses: "Ah, the shopkeeper, that kid gave a penny less!" โ€

Autumn Falling City is not comparable to Meiwu City, where Shen has been staying since he was a child. It is a real big city, and it is also famous in many cities of the Great Wei Dynasty.

Not only because there is the world-famous Yunmeng Sword Sect here, but also because Qiuluo City is the first city in the south of the Great Wei Dynasty, and the one facing the south is the Liang Kingdom.

The Northern Wei Dynasty and the Southern Liang Dynasty have had constant border friction over the years, so the imperial court attaches great importance to Qiuluo City. There are 10,000 heavy cavalry and tens of thousands of light cavalry and infantry stationed in the city of Qiuluo, which is not only the first line of defense in the south of the Great Wei, but also the exit of the southern attack.

With such a geographical location, its importance is self-evident, and therefore, the emperor sent Dugu Chong, one of the generals of the Eight Pillars of the Great Wei Dynasty, to be stationed here.

When the sun was setting in the west, Shen finally saw the autumn city from afar, and the towering city wall seemed to be a canopy across the plain, which was extremely magnificent.

At this time in the evening, there are many people entering and leaving the city, so the city gate is crowded with people, the sound is noisy, and it is not lively!

Most of the people who went out of the city were hawkers who lived outside the city, carrying the flat poles and bamboo cages that had been sold out, and they were walking out of the city in twos and threes. I think it's selling well today, and you can sell two taels of wine or bring a pound of meat back to eat.

And those who entered the city, in addition to people who came in a hurry like Shen Kuang, there were also some people who drove the carriage, and the carriage was beautifully decorated, it should be the young lady of which family went out of the city and came back!

Shen Qing, who was full of novelty, got rid of the fatigue brought by the hurry, and after passing the inspection of entering the city, he happily entered the city.

It's even more lively in the city than outside the city! As soon as you enter the city, you will be greeted by the wide streets. There was a constant stream of pedestrians coming and going on the street, and the shouts were endless, everything seemed so interesting in Shen Jing's eyes. It's not that he hadn't seen this in Plum Fog City before, but the bustle here was far beyond his expectations.

The shops lining the streets sell a dizzying variety of items, and it seems that you can think of them all sold here. In front of the stalls along the street, most of them sell all kinds of food, smelling the aroma, Shen Jing's stomach screamed unconsciously!

The northerners are martial, so the folk customs are very fierce. Most of the men in Dawei are burly, and the women are also very tall. It is rare to see such a situation as Shen, although he is also holding a sword, but he still exudes a scholarly aura on his body. In this respect, he is similar to his master.

Twenty-year-old handsome young man, who doesn't like to take a few more looks!

So along the way, it attracted the attention of many women! However, in Shen Jing's eyes, these all became the meaning of the bad comer.

Before going out, the master warned him that most people in big cities are not friendly, and he was deceived if he didn't ask for a kiss.

Shen was a little disdainful of the master's advice, he was not a fool. Although this is the first time he has gone out alone, it is impossible for him to be deceived by him who has been in society for a long time and is nicknamed Xiaojianghu, unless that person is his master.

In the afternoon, he also drove for a long time, after the excitement when he entered the city, at this time he just wanted to quickly find an inn to rest, and then have a good meal in the evening, Ming'er went to Yunmeng Mountain early in the morning to ask for relatives, handed over the jade pendant, and he could go back to Meiwu City.

Although the big city is good, he still likes Meiwu City. And in the past few days, because he has not learned the sword in a hurry, he is still a little uncomfortable.

He searched the street for a long time, until night fell, and finally found an inn.

The name of the inn is said to be no wine, but as soon as you enter the door, you will see dozens of large and small wine jars, neatly placed on the wall. He thought in his heart that this name was still chic, thinking that most of the people who didn't drink alcohol were all people who didn't drink!

Although it is easy to cause ambiguity, it is a small means for the store to attract the attention of others.

The shopkeeper was an old man, and when Shen Jing entered the door, he was sitting in front of the cabinet drinking wine. There was also a girl in front of the hall who was wiping the tables and chairs, and when she saw Shen Jing coming in, she politely took the lead in speaking: "Guests eat or stay in the hotel?" โ€

"Stay!" Shen Kuang replied softly.

The girl is not very old, and she is estimated to be a few years younger than Shen Jing. Her voice was friendly, she smiled slightly, there seemed to be a crescent moon in the corners of her eyes, and her light blue dress was very cute, which also made Shen Guan have a lot of good feelings about this inn.

Seeing Shen Jing come in, the old man who was drinking in front of the cabinet also looked up, and his slightly squinted eyes opened.

When he turned his head and saw the sword in Shen Kuang's hand, he glanced at it fixedly, his expression was slightly stunned, and he seemed to be very surprised.

However, the old man's expression was very small, and others couldn't see the clues in his expression. The old man quickly regained his composure, and then smiled kindly: "A good sword!" โ€

Hearing the old man's praise, Shen Jing raised the sword body, and responded with a smile: "The old man has won the award!" โ€

The sword was given to him by the master, and Shen Kuang has used this one since he learned the sword, and he gave the sword a nice name, Bai Mu, which happened to match the name of the alley. He liked the white mud very much, so he was very happy to hear the old man praise the sword.

"Eat, or stay in the hotel?" The old man asked again with a cloudy smell of wine in his mouth.

Before Shen Jing could speak, the girl on the side spoke first, and the girl pursed her lips, with a bit of complaint in her tone. "Master, you've drunk too much again! The guest stays in the hotel, I just said it! โ€

After speaking, she smiled apologetically at Shen Guo again!

"Haha! I haven't drunk much, I haven't drunk too much, I've been drinking for years! This sentence is loud and loud.

Shen Jing also thought that he had drunk too much, so he didn't care. Then he slowly repeated: "Old man, I live in the hotel!" Please give me a room! โ€

"Stay in the hotel! Let Shi Yu arrange one for you, I remember that there is still a room in the backyard! โ€

After the old man finished speaking, he grabbed the flask and took a sip, and whispered, "Twenty years! โ€

Shen Guo knew that the old man was most likely drunk, so he turned to look at the girl named Shi Yu. Shi Yu glanced at his master who was drunk again, and then said to Shen Jing: "Let the guests laugh, the master loves to drink!" โ€

Shen Guo smiled slightly, indicating that it didn't matter.

"Childe, come with me!"

Shen Jing nodded, and then followed Shi Yu to the backyard.

After a while, Shi Yu pushed open the door of a room on the first floor of the backyard, and said as he walked: "On weekdays, there are not many customers in the store, Shi Yu probably likes to be quiet when he looks at his son, so he chose this one, I don't know if the son is still satisfied?" โ€

Shen Guo looked around the interior of the room, an ordinary room, nothing special. However, the room is very clean, which is quite popular with him, he has never had high material requirements, and cleanliness is one of the few requirements. So he nodded with satisfaction: "It's troublesome Miss Shiyu, I like it very much!" โ€

Xu was recognized, Shi Yu was a little happy, and smiled sweetly. "Just call me Shi Yu! Then I won't bother Childe for now. โ€

Shi Yu told Shen Kuang about the situation in the inn and then left, and asked Shen Kuang to call her in the front hall if he needed anything.

There didn't seem to be any other guests in the inn except Shen Jing, and there were only a few rooms in the backyard, and the rest of the rooms were empty, so the whole backyard seemed very quiet.

The backyard was huge, and he thought that if he got up early tomorrow morning, he would still be able to practice his sword for a while, and he would not be afraid of disturbing others.

After a day's journey, Shen was really tired at this time, so he wanted to take a nap in bed for a while, thinking that he would wake up later and let Shi Yu get some food to eat. However, he slept straight into the next morning.

The habit that had been formed for a long time made him wake up naturally when he was young, feeling the slight chill of the morning and the light coming in through the window, and Shen Jing knew that he was afraid that he had fallen asleep directly after taking a nap last night.

A good night's sleep!

In the morning, he was in good spirits. After getting up and stretching a lot, he shook his body again, then directly lifted his sword, and went out of the room wearing only thin clothes. His hands are itchy, he wants to practice swords!

The master said that practicing swords in the morning is the best, so Shen Jing has always maintained this habit since he was a child. In other aspects, Shen Kuang has many doubts about the master, but when it comes to swordsmanship practice, the master is the absolute authority.

What Shen Guan practiced was the swordsmanship taught to him by his master, and he had no name. The master only said that this swordsmanship can be practiced to the fullest, and the power of this kind of power once made Shen Jing fascinated. He once asked the master if he had practiced this sword technique to the fullest, and the master only shook his head: "There is one person who has practiced it, and he once held this sword of heaven and earth to fight the five great masters alone!" โ€

"Grandmaster?" Shen Jing muttered, and then exclaimed slightly: "What kind of realm is that?" โ€

"Very high level!" The master replied lightly.

"Is the master a grandmaster?" Shen Jing asked again.

Master nodded!

"So, what about the end result? Did he win? โ€

The master didn't answer directly, he raised his eyes and looked at the sky in the distance, as if he was a little melancholy, but also seemed to be a little more calm. "No result!"

The master's words were profound, and he could only frown and think about the reason for the entanglement. Suddenly, I realized that I couldn't figure it out, and I stopped thinking about it.

He couldn't figure out this, but he knew that the swordsmanship he practiced was so powerful that even his master had never learned it.

Practicing swords, both practicing sword moves and sword intent, the master said that there is tangible but unintentional, useless!

Therefore, when Shen Jing practiced, his sword moves were slow, but they were only relative. Although the sword is slow, it does not fall into all aspects such as shape and meaning, and the degree of sharpness. This was the result of his years of hard training, and with the true qi running in his body, he slowly completed a complete set of sword moves.

In fact, every time he finished practicing, he would have the feeling of practicing this set of swordsmanship for the first time.

The master answered for him and told him that this was the mystery of this set of swordsmanship. The sword of heaven and earth is not only that sword, different people have different experiences and perceptions of the sword of heaven and earth, and the sword that is condensed in the end is also different.

Shen Kuang now has a small success in this set of swordsmanship, and if he releases it with all his strength, he can condense a sword, but this sword consumes a lot of internal force, so this trick is considered Shen Kuang's kung fu to press the bottom of the box, and he will not use it unless he has to.

The master said that although the sword he condensed was far from the real Heaven and Earth Sword in terms of power, it was not easy for him to condense the sword shape in this realm!

Shen Guo has never known his own realm, and the master doesn't say anything, but only tells him that he hasn't reached the grandmaster yet!
