The black-robed woman watched the short-shirted young man practice his sword until the evening, and it happened that Father Lin happened to return home today. Ye Dang heard that Lin Man's sixth father and mother said that the apprentices and the short-shirted boy might have to go far away, at first Lin's mother was still a little worried, and Lin's father mentioned that just two days later, the public family was going to send tea to the area of Jiangnan and Suzhou, so that his son could go with him, which made Lin's mother feel at ease.

Night

Lin Manliu helped the black-robed woman to sit on the threshold again and take a cool breath in the courtyard, the two of them looked at the starry sky in this small courtyard, still so starry, and a bright moon hung high in the sky, like the eyes of the gods overlooking the earth.

Ye Dang listened to the moonlight and said: "Do you know, there are too many interesting people or things in this world, you should really go out and see the outside world now."

"The Outside World...... I've only been in Fengcheng since I was a child, and I haven't even been to the west of the city, and I don't know what it's like outside," the short-shirted young man looked up at the sky with the black-robed woman.

"What you have seen in the past or the Fengcheng you are in is like the courtyard where we are enjoying the shade now, you can only see the starry sky within the walls of this courtyard, and the outside world is like a real starry sky, vast and boundless."

"There are a lot of people outside, many of them are as strong as Master's martial arts" Lin Manliu turned his head to look at Master with a look of antiquation.

The black-robed woman thought for a while, scratched the head of the young man in the short shirt and said, "Do you think the master is weak? Let's listen to the Jiangnan swordsman Ye Dang~ Let me tell you about the outside world, martial arts warriors like us are rated as nine ranks, from bottom to top, and the lower three are like those caretakers in the west of Fengcheng City, and the middle three are those outstanding disciples in the Jianghu sect, and the third class is some old monsters who can start a sect or some young talents who are famous in the rivers and lakes."

"Isn't that master a third-class master?" The boy in the short shirt almost jumped up in excitement.

"I can be regarded as a third-class, but if you add the Jiangnan swordsman Ye Dang, you will also have to be second-class" The black-robed woman looked at the short-shirted young man with a surprised face, "Master is amazing!" Under the moonlight, Lin Manliu jumped into the courtyard and spun around.

"Well, Ye Dang is really good at listening," the black-robed woman seemed to echo what the short-shirted young man had just said.

The two continued to look at the night sky for a long time

"I'll tell you something about the rivers and lakes again, and then I won't seem to be uninformed when I travel far away, once the world was divided by the world, and the Yanyang Dynasty in the north united with the famous sects of the rivers and lakes at that time, such as the Wind and Snow Grand View Tower and the Casting Sword Peak, to unify the world, and it has created the current pattern, the power of the dynasty is mainly in the north, and the south is to return the rivers and lakes to the founding ancestor promised to take the rivers and lakes" The black-robed woman looked at the twinkling stars in the sky as if recalling the past, and the young man in the short shirt stood in the courtyard and listened quietly to Ye Dang listening to the affairs of the rivers and lakes outside.

"After that, because the world was peaceful and there were no wars, it ushered in an era of prosperity in the rivers and lakes, and all kinds of rivers and lakes were lined up with a hundred flowers, so that they bloomed in the south and competed with each other.

Yuezhou Wind and Snow Grand View Building is from that time to the present has been standing on the top of the existence of the rivers and lakes, Juzhou Casting Sword Peak is for all kinds of heroes to cast weapons for the past hundred years, at that time, whether it was a dynasty military general or a master of the rivers and lakes all said: the world's good soldiers only cast the sword peak.

However, the Sword Casting Peak was like a flash in the pan, and in the eleventh year of Sunrise, it was sealed and no longer cast swords to the outside world," said this, the black-robed woman seemed to be a little sad, and smiled at the short-shirted young man, Lin Manliu understood a little, and did not say anything.

"And then thirty-nine years have passed since the sealing of the Sword Peak, and many rivers and lakes have emerged in these years, and your Shenxingguan or the Wenjian Lake in Yangzhou are all rapidly developing sects, and there are also some local sects that are everywhere, and the rivers and lakes are still vibrant. The outside world is very big, you must take a closer look, go to this river and lake to break through" Ye Dang stopped speaking after hearing this, and looked at the young man in a short shirt.

"Master, will he come looking for me when his injuries are better?" asked the young man in the short shirt timidly.

"It shouldn't be, you go out to travel and only live in your mother, since you are entrusted by me, then I will ensure that you have no worries, and I will stay in Fengcheng to protect the safety of your family before you travel far to Hangzhou and return home," the black-robed woman suddenly said with a straight face.

"It's the apprentice who didn't think it through, more masters..."

"Can we not talk in the future, it's so awkward" Ye Dang suddenly coughed and said.

"The main thing is that when you talked about the past of the rivers and lakes just now, I looked at you a little sad, and I was afraid that joking with you was a little inappropriate," Lin Manliu scratched his head with a smile.

"You dare to talk back, and when I get better, I won't cure you."

"When the master recovers from his injuries, the apprentice is still on the way."

"I have to be at home tomorrow for a day, I started practicing early in the morning, and I asked Aunt Lin not to put you with dishes and chopsticks when I was lazy."

Sure enough, it only took three sentences to break the work, and it had to be a pair of masters and apprentices with similar personalities and conduct.

Early the next morning

The short-shirted boy walked into the courtyard from the shop in the front room, and because his house was left for Ye Dangting to rest, he could only rest in the shop. Lin Manliu, who was still rubbing his eyes, saw the black-robed woman snuggling by the door of the house and closing her eyes to recuperate.

"Master's health is better?" The short-shirted boy trotted over to Ye Dangting.

"I can barely get out of bed and walk around, go to the house to get the sword, practice" The black-robed woman said casually without her eyes open.

"Isn't it manliu who cares about Master..."

"Practice—" was only one word, but the voice dragged on a little long.

Lin Manliu had to go into the house and take out the spring window butterfly, and practiced the sword in the courtyard, which was a little better than the contact from the beginning, plus the short-shirted boy helped the family work since he was a child, and sometimes he had to accompany his father to work in the public farm, and these actions of swinging the sword and sweeping the legs finally had strength.

"Yesterday, I only told you about the past and some sects of the rivers and lakes, and I haven't mentioned to you the current Jianghu Junyan or the leaders of the older generation of rivers and lakes, you listen to me while practicing swords" Ye Dangting finally opened his eyes at this time and looked at the short-shirted young man who was practicing swords in the courtyard.

"On that day, I discussed with your father that the caravan should go to Juzhou after leaving Jianmen Pass, then to Qianzhou, through Yuezhou, into Jiangnan, and finally to Suzhou and Hangzhou. I chose this road to tell you, the route is similar to that when I came, I also saw some sects along the way, and the generation of southern Xinjiang was deeply educated by the stars and had nothing to see.

And Juzhou, which arrived first out of Jiannan Pass, is where the Sword Casting Peak Si clan is located, but now that the decline is fully revealed, coupled with last year's sword appreciation accident, the second surname Qiao and Li have been enshrined and controlled, and the first thing is that the Li family worships Li Junce, who is a reckless man at the end of the third rank, and his disciples must be cautious when passing by" When Ye Dang heard about the Li family of Sword Casting Peak, a gloomy look flashed in his eyes.
