Chapter 3: Apprenticeship with the Sword Master
In the blink of an eye, a month has passed, and the popularity of traveling to become a soul master has gradually dissipated, but it is still a topic in the mouths of the villagers in their spare time.
And Zhou You also told a white lie, telling the old village chief that the soul master who had awakened him had taken a fancy to his potential and was ready to take him to Maple Leaf City to go to school, and he would not come back for a long time.
At the entrance of the village, the village chief and many villagers came to see him off!
The old village chief trembled and handed over a burden to Zhou You's hand, and tears flashed in his eyes.
"Kid! This is the living expenses that the villagers have put together for you, and you can save a little yourself.
Don't ask to get ahead, be sure to keep yourself safe, come back if the outside life is not good, we always welcome you! ”
Zhou You solemnly took the burden, looked at the white-haired old man in front of him, and couldn't help but feel sour.
Zhou You took a step back, knelt on the ground and kowtowed steadily, shouting: "Grandpa the village chief, I have been taking care of you for so long, and everyone, thank you for your help!" ”
"Son, what are you doing here? Get up! ”
When the village chief saw Zhou You kneeling on the ground, he quickly helped him up, and he was also very moved in his heart. This child was grown up by him, he has been well-behaved and sensible since he was a child, and he hopes that he will not be bullied outside.
"That's it, Zhou Xiaowa, you can come back and see us more often, what do you say about repaying or not."
"Don't cry your nose, like a man!"
But after finishing speaking, the villagers themselves couldn't help but shed tears in the corners of their eyes.
"I'm leaving, don't send it anymore, I'll definitely get ahead next time we meet!" Zhou You, who turned back three times one step at a time, said.
Looking at the village behind him, which was gradually becoming hazy, Zhou You sighed and turned his head completely.
I don't know when I'll see you again.
Perhaps, I will die in the unknown world, and maybe I can come back alive and become a powerful soul master!
"Crossing!"
When he arrived in a no-man's land, he plunged into the ancient bronze gate that had been stored and disappeared.
The distorted light reflected in his eyes, and with a feeling of dizziness, Zhou You, who had just entered the strange world, suddenly fell to the ground.
I don't know how long it has been, but a white-haired man who can't tell his age walks over with a decadent face.
said that he was middle-aged, but his eyebrows and hair were all silver gray, and his eyes were as unfathomable as the sea, but he had a sense of reading all the people like an old man.
To say that he is an old man, his face is as tender and red as a baby, and his hands are as white and flawless as eggs in a shell.
That spirit is not as weak as an old man, but as vigorous as a person in the prime of life.
Heavenly Greatsword! Pierce the sky! But it's like a candle in the wind that goes out as soon as it blows!
"The old man has been working hard for decades, and the twenty-one sword styles he has realized are still invincible, it seems to be the will of heaven!"
Sword Saint Dugu Jian staggered in the wilderness and woods, after the failure of the nameless decisive battle with the Heavenly Sword incarnation yesterday, Dugu Jian was in a trance, and he had been walking on foot without a purpose.
After walking for another night and another morning, when he arrived in a deserted mountain forest, the Sword Saint was uneasy in his heart, and was ready to perform the twenty-first form of the Holy Spirit Sword Technique one last time before retiring to the rivers and lakes.
Dugu Sword is full of sword qi, and the sword heart comes out with the Yuan Shen, and wherever the sword qi goes, it is devastated, and not an inch of grass grows, but the sword qi suddenly begins to be out of his control, and it is scattered all over the sky without direction.
"It's bad, is the old man going mad?"
Before the Sword Saint had time to think carefully, the powerful sword qi actually dragged the Sword Saint towards the depths of the bamboo forest.
The sword qi gradually weakened, and it actually flew straight in front of Zhou You, who was already unconscious.
The Sword Saint hurriedly stepped forward and saw a fainted child, "The old man's sword twenty-one style sword qi actually surrounds him, is it possible - this son is a natural sword body?" ”
The Sword Saint couldn't believe it at all, he learned swords at the age of five, became famous at the age of nine, and it was only at the age of thirteen that he practiced the early sword body of the day after tomorrow, but this child was ......
"The sword is endowed with clouds: the metaphysical sword, no one in ancient times, ten thousand swords are admired, and they are worshiped like gods."
"Nameless, nameless, although my Dugu Sword was defeated by you, but thanks to God's mercy, I met this child with an innate sword body.
Although you are now a martial arts myth, the old man will create another martial arts legend for you to see, my sword path may not be worse than yours! ”
Dugu Jian laughed, picked up the unconscious Zhou You, and galloped away into the distance, the rugged and steep slope at the feet of the Sword Saint.
After half an hour of hurrying, the Sword Master took the still unconscious Zhou You to a place with beautiful mountains and rivers.
A clear lake appeared in front of you, and the surface of the lake rippled with microwaves.
A wooden house is built on the water, but it is the size of the house, perhaps it has fallen into disrepair and looks a little dilapidated, and it looks very desolate.
If the mountain is not high, there is a fairy, and if the water is not deep, there is a dragon!
No matter how dilapidated and desolate this wooden house is, it is still an extraordinary house, just because its owner is a famous sword saint in the rivers and lakes - Dugu Sword.
……
Three months later!
The morning sun was rising, and the soft light pierced the darkness and dyed the entire mountain forest with a layer of gold.
Zhou You's thin linen clothes were covered with frost and dew, and you can imagine how long he had been waiting.
I saw him standing quietly in front of the wooden house near the water, his whole body bathed in golden light, like a statue.
A few gossips I heard a few days ago came to my mind again: the bat old demon of Bat Village betrayed Kuaiyimen and threw himself into Wushuang City, and the male tyrant made an appointment to fight the northern drinking mad sword Nie Ren King in the duel of the Giant Buddha in Leshan, and the sword villa harbored evil intentions and was beheaded by the imperial court......
These things make Zhou You can't help but think of a famous anime in his previous life - Fengyun Duel!
When Zhou You thoroughly understood the situation in this world, the whole person seemed so surprised.
For the result of this crossing, there is no satisfaction or dissatisfaction.
At this time, in the world of wind and clouds, the world will be in charge of half of the martial arts, and the ambitious tyrant will peek into the emperor's throne like a wolf.
And another force that is enough to stand tall with the world is the Wushuang City, the Wushuang City ruled by the Dugu clan!
In order to unify the martial arts and command the world, the world will begin to slaughter dissidents, whether it is large or small forces and gate valves, as long as they disobey and surrender, they will be destroyed immediately!
Blood-stained martial arts, endless killing in the rivers and lakes, this is a bloody killing world!
In particular, for a person like him who has no teacher, no strength and no identity, it is even more dangerous and dangerous.
Fortunately, after crossing over, he met the Sword Saint, perhaps because the martial soul is a sword, he followed the Sword Saint after receiving three kneels and nine knocks for the Sword Saint.
Zhou You was naturally overjoyed by such a result, the Holy Spirit Sword Technique that the Sword Saint relied on to become famous would definitely not be worse than any martial arts, according to his understanding, the Holy Spirit Sword Technique was also a lot higher than Xuantian Gong.
Although he doesn't know why the Sword Master would take him as an apprentice, he is determined to become a swordsman!
Mornings in the mountains are always short, and as the days go by, the sun is in the middle of the day.
With a creak, the door of the wooden house gradually opened to both sides, and the gray-and-silver swordmaster slowly walked out.
Looking at the young man standing in front of the house who had not changed, there was a look of satisfaction in his eyes.
He said coldly: "Patience and perseverance are the most important things in martial arts, and the same is true for sword practice, if you don't have these two points, it's better not to practice swords!" ”
Zhou You said respectfully: "Thank you for the master's teachings, the disciple understands!" ”
The Sword Master nodded slightly, and then asked, "Do you know how many basic sword techniques there are?" ”
Zhou You looked stunned for a moment, and replied suspiciously, "As far as the disciple knows, there should be eighteen styles!" ”
This is an answer that even a child knows, and he doesn't quite understand why the Sword Master asks himself such a question.
"Which eighteen forms? You may explain the walkthroughs one by one! The cold voice of the Sword Saint came again.
Everyone in the rivers and lakes knows that there are eighteen basic swordsmanship, but even some swordsmen may not pay serious attention to the cultivation of this basic swordsmanship, and most of them have cultivated a few basic swordsmanship and skipped to practice according to the sword spectrum.
Although there is a complete cultivation of the eighteen-style basic sword technique, it is very rare.
Of course, Zhou You is no exception, he has never been exposed to swordsmanship in the Douluo World before, so how can he know which eighteen styles there are.
Therefore, he could only stare at the lake that suddenly rippled, and could not say a word.
The Sword Master's gaze became distant, and he jumped lightly, and said in his mouth: "These eighteen basic swordsmanship are: splitting, teasing, sweeping, and stabbing ......."
He seemed to hold a long sword in his hand, and his body made simple and straightforward movements.
However, it is this simple and straightforward action, and the sword master is as smooth as flowing water, which is pleasing to the eye.
At this time, everything was silent, and only the figure practicing the basic swordsmanship was left between heaven and earth.
One move and one style is full of agility and nature, which makes people want to stop and are reluctant to look away.
At the end of his words, the body of the Juggernaut returned to its original place.
He put his hands behind his back, looked at the rippling lake calmly, and said meaningfully.
"The people of the world are ignorant, they only know that they seek advanced martial arts the most, but they don't know how to practice advanced martial arts if they can't even do a good job! It's just a laughing stock! ”
"From tomorrow onwards, you will come here every day to practice basic swordsmanship!"
After the Sword Master finished speaking, he stepped lightly on his toes, and flew back to the house like a crane in an elegant posture, and the open door was automatically closed without wind.
He didn't seem to care if his newly recruited apprentice would cultivate the eighteen-style basic sword technique.
Although he cherishes the young man is a good talent and beautiful jade, but he relies on himself to practice martial arts, if he doesn't work hard, no matter how many times others talk about it, he will also play the piano to the cow.
The eyes of the wanderers in place brightened, just now the Sword Master opened a new world for him, and also allowed him to find the next path.
No one had ever taught him before, so Zhou You could only grope by himself, his martial soul was a sword, and his future path would only be a sword!
Besides, with a martial soul instead of a sword, he doesn't need any magic weapons at all, he only needs to attach a soul ring and can use it all the time, so he doesn't have to worry about not being able to keep up with the problem of the version and the need to change it.
And now he has met the good teacher of the Sword Saint, just as Bole met Maxima, and Yu Boya met Zhong Ziqi, and he knew everything and knew everything.
