After three days, Lu Fu.

It was early in the morning, the first sight after the snow, and the sun shining on the snow was a little dazzling.

In front of the gate of the road, five large carriages were ready, and in front of each carriage were several swordsmen wearing soft armor, with heroic postures, leading horses and holding swords, like a tower, guarding several carriages.

Today is the day when Lu Zhaonan decided to go to the capital, so early in the morning, in addition to the servants in the house at the gate of the Lufu, the lady and the young master, there are also the domestic servants and guards sent by the families who accompanied the trip, as well as the people who came to see him off, so that the gate of the Lufu is full of people this morning.

Lu Zhaonan said that he was wearing a travel outfit, because of the cold weather, he wore a fur coat, and after he came out with Lu Xueyan, he greeted the people who came to see him off.

Except for a small number of people who have left for the capital in advance, the others have gathered here, so when the teenagers who arrived early get together, those who participated in the same type of competition were arranged to get into the carriage in advance, and they had a warm exchange and discussed the competition.

After a while, when the departure time came, Lu Zhaonan said goodbye to the people who saw him off, and after getting into the carriage, he saw Jian Weng sitting quietly in the carriage, as if he was closing his eyes and recuperating.

When Lu Zhaonan gave the order to set off and the carriage slowly drove out of the city, Jian Weng opened his eyes and said: "The Tang family trained killers privately, and began to lurk in the affairs of each family, and now the old man of each family has been reminded, it seems that the upgrade of the Sword Academy this time is imperative, even if it is to use means, it must also achieve the goal, this first step must be taken solidly!"

Lu Zhaonan nodded slightly, lifted the curtain and looked outside, and said: "In terms of financial and material resources, there is the support of the Liu Yang family, as for talents, if it can succeed this time, this year Nanpei Sword Academy will not want to poach another one, the old man's protégés, all of them are political veterans, with them to help increase the momentum, it can be done!"

Jian Weng nodded and said, "No matter how many talents there are, they can't match one, what is Nie Lin's current thoughts on that kid, have you revealed some things to him?"

"I haven't revealed anything to him yet, but the old man thinks that when Wangqiu is dying, he should give him some hints, and with this child's intelligence, it is estimated that he can guess some, which is better than telling him in person!"

Jian Weng shook his head and said: "Old road, I think you are too worried about this, since the decline of your Lu clan and the change of appearance so far, the things that you have endured are just for one thing, no matter whether this matter is very involved with that child, you should find a time to talk to him, Ji Wudao insisted on going his own way back then, did not listen to our advice, and finally left with regrets, and now the only person who is involved with Ji Wudao may be the only one left with this child, you and I must find out his true thoughts, and be sure that he will be in the future." The Divine Mansion's position in the middle of the house!"

Lu Zhaonan thought for a while, and then said: "This matter, let's wait until there is a result this time, the child is still young, wait for him to grow up for a few years, and then talk about this matter, at that time, we should also be able to organize the members scattered all over the place!"

"Anyway, your ancestor of the Lu family is a peerless strategist, since ancient times, the Lu family has had more talent as strategists, and we people, inherited from our ancestors, are also suitable to be a forward general from beginning to end!"

The two had been talking in the form of sound transmission, when the carriage team stopped after driving to the gate of Tianlu Academy.

Lu Zhaonan didn't get out of the carriage, but just lifted the window, and saw Nie Lin wearing simple clothes, with an extraordinary momentum, a sword behind him, and a small bag standing at the door, talking to Su Bo.

Nie Lin was going to get up early this morning and go to the city to gather at the Lu Mansion, but Su Bo told him that the procession would pass through the academy, so he could wait at the gate of the academy.

So Nie Lin went to the medicine garden first, told Gu Menghan about something, stored the scabbard to her, and entrusted Gu Menghan to help him take care of the courtyard, and after saying goodbye to her, he came to the gate of the academy.

In fact, he didn't wait long when he arrived at the gate of the academy, but just told Su Bo about what happened that night, but Su Bo told him that he was just a little thief, and he had already punished him for stealing things in his courtyard, which made Nie Lin always feel a little strange in his heart, and his intuition told him that it didn't seem to be the case.

However, Su Bo didn't want to tell the truth, and Nie Lin didn't want to ask more, because he always believed that there were some things that he should know, he would always know, and what he shouldn't know, then he naturally didn't want to know.

While they were talking, the procession stopped at the gate of the academy, and Nie Lin saw Lu Zhaonan open the window and nodded to him, Su Bo pointed to a carriage in the middle of the team and said, "You go and take that one!"

Nie Lin raised his fist and saluted, and after saying goodbye to Su Bo, he walked to the carriage with his burden and sword on his back, and after a middle-aged swordsman whom Nie Lin had never seen before opened the door for him with a gentle smile, Nie Lin got into the carriage.

The carriage is a luxury specification, the carriage is very large, after Nie Lin came in, Yang Yuxiao put down the book in his hand to the small table in the carriage, raised his head and said, "Brother Nie, the three of us will ride in the same car this time, it won't disturb you, right?"

Nie Lin naturally wouldn't mind riding in the same car with Yang Yuxiao, but he heard him say that there were three people, but he saw that in addition to the two of them, there was no third person in the carriage, except for a piano case, and he couldn't help but be a little puzzled: "Who is the third person that Brother Yang is talking about?"

Yang Yuxiao chuckled: "Naturally, it's Senior Sister, there are two female classmates participating in this competition, they are riding in a carriage alone, Senior Sister will be talking to them, as for the other students, half of them are from Hanmen, I guess you don't know each other, when we get together at the post station, I will introduce these classmates to you in detail!"

"Hmm!"

Nie Lin nodded, sat down at the table, then took off the burden and sword, put it beside him, and took out two books from the bag and put them on the table, ready to read on the road.

At this time, the carriage started slowly, and the procession continued to move forward.

After Yang Yuxiao saw Nie Lin's peerless sword, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said, "Brother Nie, your sword is very different, it is not ordinary at first glance, why don't you match him with a scabbard?"

Nie Lin said indifferently: "This sword was obtained by adventure when I went out last time!"

"Can this Sword Brother Nie lend me a look?" Yang Yuxiao scratched his head, looking a little embarrassed.

"It's okay!" Nie Lin nodded disapprovingly, and put the sword on the table.

After Yang Yuxiao was approved by Nie Lin, he was about to reach out and pick up the sword to take a look, but after his hand touched the hilt, a sword intent suddenly surged, Yang Yuxiao's face changed greatly, he retracted his hand like lightning, and resisted with luck, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, and said with palpitations: "Curious sword, he will actually release a sword intent to attack me, fortunately I have no malice, otherwise the sword intent will definitely hit my heart hard......"

Nie Lin naturally knew what was going on, he had the Sword Mother, and the sword spirit in this sword seemed to be very obedient to the Sword Mother, he was naturally able to control and use this sword, and it didn't have any effect.

But he didn't expect that when others touched this sword, the sword would automatically launch a sword intent attack, which he didn't expect, it seems that after this sword has a soul, it will also recognize people.

Seeing that Yang Yuxiao was not affected too much, Nie Lin immediately took the sword back and put it aside, and said apologetically: "Brother Yang, forgive me, I didn't expect this sword to automatically generate sword intent to attack you, are you okay?"

Yang Yuxiao shook his head and said: "I'm fine, although the sword is a murder weapon, it is all out of the swordsman's state of mind, I am just curious, he blooms the sword intent, it is just a kind of self-vigilance, it has no effect, but Brother Nie has this adventure, and it is a blessing to get this sword with the surname of the spirit, next time I have the opportunity, I must travel with Brother Nie to see if I have this adventure, hehe!"

Nie Lin was relieved, smiled faintly, and said: "If we can win the first place in this sword boy competition, we will naturally have the opportunity to compete with the people of Nanpei Sword Academy next time, and at that time, our trip to Nanzhou will naturally have more opportunities to travel!"

Hearing this, Yang Yuxiao said: "Brother Nie, are you sure that you will win a full score in the kendo in this sword boy competition, as far as I know, in this sword boy competition, there are also some unborn kendo wizards, and there are not a few young swordsmen before the age of eighteen?"

Nie Lin has made an understanding of this sword boy competition in the past few days, and said: "If King Wu Ying can break through the swordsman this time, then above the age, we have an absolute advantage, on this basis, after we win, we will challenge other groups, the chance of winning is naturally more than ninety percent, even if King Wu Ying is defeated, just me, I will definitely score a full score in the way of the sword!"

Yang Yuxiao saw Nie Lin's confident expression, in fact, he couldn't see Nie Lin's current strength, but he felt that after Nie Lin came back this time, he was much stronger than before the last time he participated in the trial, but the momentum that appeared inadvertently had surpassed his peers countless times.

However, Yang Yuxiao naturally wouldn't directly ask Nie Lin what his current strength was, which was something that was easy to taboo, so he said, "Then Brother Nie is planning to act in a high-profile manner this time?"

Nie Lin said: "Exactly, if Tianlu Academy wants to be promoted to a great teaching institution, and then change to a sword academy academy, it must have a certain amount of influence support, if it is low-key in this kind of thing, then it will be meaningless to participate in this sword boy competition!"

After hearing this, Yang Yuxiao felt embarrassed and said: "Brother Nie still has a long-term view than me, and the overall situation is better than me, I have always been worried about the strong opponents I may encounter in the game, it seems that my mentality has not been adjusted well!"

Nie Lin smiled and said: "Brother Yang actually doesn't have to care too much about who the opponent is, since we represent Tianlu in the competition this time, we should be more high-profile, not to mention how your strategy essay is, you just need to tell the judges that your teacher is Mr. Lu, and the judges will naturally look at you differently, this impression score should be guaranteed!"

Yang Yuxiao listened, looked at Nie Lin with some surprise and said, "Does Brother Nie have any implementation strategy for this competition?"

"Yes!"

Nie Lin nodded and said solemnly: "Because this competition, although it doesn't seem special to others, but for Tianlu Academy, this will be a fateful competition!"
