Xu Lao is very old.

He walked tremblingly and slowly.

Chu Qingxiao, who was following behind, had the heart to help him, but the old man was very stubborn and broke away from Chu Qingxiao's hand.

"You have to go your own way."

"The old man hasn't reached the point where he needs someone to hold him."

Seeing his resolute attitude, Chu Qingxiao had no choice but to give up, and slowly followed behind him by his temperament.

Chu Zhaozhao still remembered that when she first arrived at Goying Village, it was the old man who helped her say a few good words, and she had a good sense of the old man, so she naturally would not urge.

However, Ziyu was already impatient, and when she saw that Xu Lao was clearly slow and leisurely, but she didn't want to be supported, she was somewhat dissatisfied, but she didn't talk much after all.

The three of them spent some time and finally walked to Xu Lao's hut on the innermost side of Goshawk Village.

The old man stretched out his hand and groped around the door, looking for the location of the door.

Seeing this, Chu Qingxiao hurriedly stepped forward to open the door for him.

The old man frowned with some displeasure.

"Help me open the door, why are you still so upset?" Ziyu, who had been holding back her anger all the way, muttered with some dissatisfaction.

When these words came out, Chu Qingxiao and Chu Zhaozhao both frowned.

The old man was not annoyed, but turned back to Ziyu and said, "Little girl." ”

"This person, no matter how many close friends he has, he will inevitably travel alone for a long night in the end."

"The way to go, you have to go, the more dependent you are, the more difficult it will be when that day comes."

These words seemed to have a deep meaning, but Ziyu pursed her lips and said no more.

Xu Lao was very familiar with his house, and when he walked into the house, his pace was much faster.

He led the group all the way to the room where he forged his sword.

The fire in the room was not extinguished, Chu Qingxiao took a look, on the stove, the three sword embryos that were scorched at the beginning were now only two, and one of them had become his sad Linyuan sword.

"Tsukimi, I brought it up single-handedly."

"It stands to reason that something happened to her, and I should save her."

"But the old man doesn't have this ability yet, you are willing to go through this for me, the old man has no long body, he can only forge a sword, so just pick one of the two."

The old man said.

Hearing this, Chu Zhaozhao and Ziyu both had strange faces.

Ziyu took the lead in saying: "I understand the kindness, I am not going to save people, my little uncle asked me to protect the two of them, they are going to return to danger, I can only follow, lest they have an accident when they happen, and the master will punish them." So, you have to thank them, just thank them. ”

After that, she seemed to realize the strange character of the old man in front of her in a short period of contact, she stretched out her hand again and pointed to the sword behind her: "Do you see this sword?" That's ......."

"Silver light falls on the snow, and the sword of the king of the earth." Before Ziyu's words were finished, the old man revealed the details of the sword behind her back.

"Huh?" Hearing this, Ziyu was stunned, she subconsciously stepped forward, stretched out her hand and waved it in front of the old man's eyes.

"Don't wave, the old man has been blind for more than ten years, and he can't see." The old man said like this: "What's more, since we met, you haven't drawn your sword, and it's useless to see it, right?" ”

"And how do you know?" Ziyu suddenly felt incredible, she turned her head to look at Chu Qingxiao and Chu Zhaozhao suspiciously, and sneered: "You two secretly told him? ”

Chu Qingxiao and Chu Zhaozhao both looked helpless.

Before they could explain, he heard the old man say again: "The sword of the world has a spirit, although the old man can't see it, but he can hear the sound of the sword, and this name is what he told me." ”

When the sword gives birth to spirituality, it is indeed possible to communicate with people.

Of course, this kind of communication is not based on simple speaking and listening, but on the perception after communicating with the sword's mind.

But the process is also extremely long.

Even though Ziyu has been getting this silver light and falling snow for more than a year, it has not yet reached the point of communicating with her heart.

Naturally, she didn't believe that a message that even the owner of the sword could perceive could be heard by this old man.

"Humph! Cast a mist before somebody's eyes. She said.

The old man did not argue.

Ziyu was unconvinced, but for a while, she really couldn't think of any other way to let a blind old man know the details of the sword behind his back.

She decided not to dwell on this issue anymore, and instead said, "Since you also know that my sword is the Sword of the Earth Demon King, you also understand that I don't need other swords......

"The sword path of Tianhang Mountain has long ceased to be the way of the sword."

"Eager for quick success, pull out the seedlings to help grow."

"Doll, the sword is a good sword, and the road is not the right way." But the old man said so.

For the disciples of Tianhang Mountain, such words already have a bit of a slanderous taste.

Ziyu's brows furrowed, and she couldn't suppress the dissatisfaction in her heart after all: "Hmph! I have been standing in the sky for hundreds of years, and I have been the bull ear of the sword in the world, and the way is not right, is not something that Your Excellency can criticize, right? ”

"No. 1 in the world?" The old man muttered these four words, and a smile appeared on his face: "These four words are a mountain, which is pressed on the shoulders of later generations, and it is also a city that traps people's hearts. ”

"Practicing swords and holding swords, is it for the sake of Tao or fame?"

The old man's words seemed to be immediate, and Ziyu was stunned when he heard it, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

"It's okay, this sword is for you, I hope you never use it."

After saying this, the old man turned his head sideways to face Chu Zhaozhao.

"Sir, what I have learned is to observe the sword and cultivate the mind......" Chu Zhaozhao said immediately.

She didn't resist the old man's gift of the sword, but because of the key sword cultivation technique, all she could use was the rusty sword on her back, no matter how good the old man's sword was, it would be a waste to give it to her.

"It's okay, I ask for peace of mind, you should help me fulfill a wish." The old man said with a smile, but his tone was a little resolute.

"What I Xu Dangren dislike the most in my life is that I owe favors to others, so you should help me."

Xu Dangren?

Ziyu, who heard this name, raised her eyebrows and secretly wrote it down.

Although she didn't want to agree with the old man's words, some of them seemed to have some truth.

What's more, even without these, the old man could "hear" the identity of Wang Jian behind her, and based on this alone, she could also conclude that the identity of this old man was not ordinary.

She secretly thought that after she went back, she must check his details.

And Chu Zhaozhao didn't have such a mind as Ziyu, she just listened to the old man's words to this point, and felt that it would be a bit rude to refuse, so she simply nodded.

"Then choose a sword embryo."

The old man named Xu Dangren said.

Chu Zhaozhao nodded, looking at the two sword embryos in the stove, they seemed to be just a big one and a small one, but there was no difference other than that.

Chu Zhaozhao didn't understand this way of forging a sword, and only thought that it would be a waste for him to hold such a sword, so he simply stretched out his finger and pointed at the slightly smaller sword embryo.

Xu Dangren nodded, it didn't mean anything to Chu Zhaozhao's decision, and he told Chu Zhaozhao the theory that before the set of swords he had told Chu Qingxiao, the master fell the first hammer.

Chu Zhaozhao didn't seem to understand it, but he also wrote it down humbly.

Although Ziyu didn't want to believe that, she listened with a frown on the side, whether out of curiosity or other thoughts.

Xu Dangren maintained his usual vigorous and resolute style.

After saying this, he asked Chu Zhaozhao and Ziyu to go to the sword casting platform to drop the hammer.

Ziyu had the intention to refuse, but Xu Dangren said: "If the girl doesn't like this sword, then the bento is a favor for me, drop a hammer, and don't take it." ”

When it came to this purple jade, it was not easy to refuse, so he simply stepped forward and dropped a hammer lightly and casually.

Chu Qingxiao frowned at this approach, but Xu Dangren didn't care, but said with a smile: "The clouds gather and scatter are all intentions." ”

"When flowers bloom and fall, they all come to mind."

"The girl is spontaneous, and the sword is also born spontaneously, and it is also romantic!"

Although Ziyu didn't like the old man's previous presumptuous words, she spoke out several times, or she deliberately came to the scene at the moment, but it didn't make Xu Dangren angry, but she didn't have so much hostility towards him.

She said no more, but silently stepped aside.

Chu Zhaozhao on the side still raised the hammer in his hand, but it never fell.

When Chu Qingxiao dropped the hammer before, he had the same hesitation as her, and probably understood her hesitation, so he said with relief: "Zhaozhao, Xu seniors are skilled, you don't need to worry too much, just think about what you think, just drop the hammer!" ”

Chu Zhaozhao nodded when he heard this, lifted the hammer in his hand, and closed his eyes in contemplation.

But I don't know if it's because of the nervousness, the more she tries to think about something important to her in her mind, the more her mind is in a mess.

The hammer was raised several times, and several times fell empty.

"Since your mind is chaotic, you might as well think about why you hold the sword." Xu Dangren seemed to sense Chu Zhaozhao's abnormality, and said in a low voice at that time.

Hearing this, Chu Zhaozhao's heart sank, she closed her eyes again, and kept asking herself questions in her mind.

Why do I hold the sword?

For the sake of the family? Yes, but not all......

For kendo? But I can't even tell you what kendo is......

In order to be a superior person? Seems good, but it's not so eager......

So.

Why the hell am I holding the sword?

Chu Zhaozhao's brows furrowed, and at this moment, the scene of those sword and armor souls in that Wuling City suddenly appeared in her mind, seeing those sword and armor souls going forward one after another, breaking through the candle yin qi, and martyrdom.

She couldn't say why, but at that moment, she just let go of all her worries and urged the sword intent in her body that she didn't want to urge even if she was in the place of death.

She was at that moment, when she held the sword.

She didn't understand why she could do that.

But since she did.

She thought, maybe the scene at that time, her state of mind at that time, was the reason why she held the sword.

With this thought, she was no longer confused, and the hammer in her hand fell, striking on the sword embryo.

Sparks fly.

The sound is as crisp as jade.

Beside him, the blind old man heard the sound, the corners of his mouth were raised, and his eyebrows were stretched.

"Sure enough." He said so softly.
