Chapter 13: Woe Comes from the Mouth
Xu Huaigu looked at the first long sword, stretched out his hand excitedly, and held the hilt of the sword.
The hilt is cold to the hand, the feel is round and solid, without a trace of rough texture, it is a good sword that has been carefully forged.
Xu Huaigu took a deep breath and prepared to raise his sword. Deng Zhiyuan said with a smile on the side: "I have picked up seven before, Luo Xinran has picked up six, Yin Zishi is five, it's your turn." Aim high for yourself, at least seven."
Xu Huaigu held his breath and lifted the handle upwards vigorously, but the sword did not move.
Xu Huaigu exerted his strength again, but the sword did not rise as he thought, but was as steady as a mountain, and it still did not move.
Deng Zhiyu's face changed greatly, and he quickly put away his smile and looked serious.
Xu Huaigu was also anxious, he didn't care about the chic image anymore, but violently exerted all his strength, but the hilt of the sword was still on the ground, and there was no sign of being lifted by him.
God made a big joke, Xu Huaigu couldn't even hold a sword.
Deng Paper Kite hurriedly said, "You devote yourself to it and keep in touch with its sword intent."
Xu Huaigu followed her words and leaned out a wisp of sword intent, wanting to communicate with this sword. But as soon as the sword intent stretched out, it was completely strangled by the sword intent of the sword itself.
Xu Huaigu was stunned, it shouldn't be like this, this sword seemed to have a lot of hostility towards him.
Deng Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, and then scolded, "What a! It must have fallen into disrepair and broken!"
But in fact, she knew better than anyone else that the possibility of this thing breaking down was smaller than the probability that Xu Huaigu didn't have any kendo qualifications at all.
However, Xu Huaigu was born with a sword fetus, and he was only nineteen years old and was already in the late stage of the Six Realms, and he could beat Yin Zishi and kill Fan Xuan, how could he not have a little talent for swordsmanship? It doesn't make sense at all.
It was also the first time for Deng Zhiyuan to see this situation, and he was stunned for a while, so he simply pulled him to the second sword and said, "You try this one!"
Xu Huaigu stretched out his hand and tried, but the sword didn't move at all.
Deng Paper Kite asked him to try a few more, but without exception, he didn't pick up any of them.
Xu Huaigu's heart was also turbulent, he thought that he had to be more than Yin Zishi's five handfuls, but he didn't expect that he couldn't even take one? Could it be that the kendo talent that he has always been proud of is fake?
Xu Huaigu didn't believe it, and Deng Zhikite didn't believe it either. But as for why this happened, neither of them knew.
Deng Zhiyuan held his forehead with one hand and thought hard for a while, and said helplessly: "Forget it, let's go back, I don't know what went wrong today, let's try again next time."
She turned her head and walked out with some gambling. Seeing this, Xu Huaigu also admitted the fact that he really couldn't hold the sword, although his mood was low, he suddenly remembered something, and immediately shouted, "Senior, wait!"
Deng Jikite turned his head and looked at him suspiciously.
Xu Huaigu pursed his lips lightly, his eyes were resolute, and he seemed to be making up his mind. He hesitated for a moment, then said embarrassedly, "Actually, senior, I shouldn't be able to be your disciple anymore."
Deng Zhiyuan frowned and said, "What did you say?"
He raised his head and said resolutely, "In the battle where Zuoqiu sought death, in order to try to save her, I pierced a sword pill in the heart lake, and forcibly relied on foreign objects to break through the realm, which has greatly damaged the foundation. Later, the demons in my heart grew again, and in the past two years, the realm has almost stood still, and I know that my sword path future has been cut off."
He bowed his head and said in shame, "Now I am not worthy of being your disciple."
The world was silent, Deng Zhiyuan felt unbelievable, stared at it, his eyes were like a sharp sword, and looked at the depressed person in front of him.
Then she walked out without saying a word.
Xu Huaigu felt guilty in his heart, knelt down with a plop, and begged, "Senior, I know how high your expectations are for me! In the summer palace in Binxi, it is you who give me the sword and give me the method, so that I can start to practice the sword. Later, it was you who made a sword for me in Zixia Sect, this kindness, I Xu Huaigu always remember in my heart and dare not forget! From now on, I would like to help Fuyao
Zong threw his blood and died unswervingly! It's just because my seniors value me so much that I can't hide my situation, so as not to miss the energy and hope of my seniors!"
Deng Paper Kite turned his head angrily and pitifully
Looking at him, he said in a cold voice, "Those who are not suitable for sword training can still practice, but those who feel that they can't practice sword will definitely not be able to practice!"
"Do you think that when you were still a nobody, I taught you to practice swords, because I knew that you were a sword fetus? Is it because I know that Xu Huaigu's kendo talent is so high today that he can become my disciple and teach you to practice swordsmanship! At that time, you really liked swords, and you thought you could practice them well, but now?"
"Think for yourself!"
Deng Paper Kite turned around suddenly, and with a strong sound of his robe, he brushed his sleeves away angrily.
Xu Huaigu knelt in place, for a long time, he closed his eyes, and a long sigh sounded in the dark room, bringing a long echo.
But Xu Huaigu didn't notice that the last of the long swords in the row behind him, that is, the Heavenly Spirit Treasure, emitted a light blue luster and trembled slightly.
But it wasn't long before the luster dimmed, the blade stopped, and the darkroom fell silent again, as if nothing had happened.
……
Chu Xiuyang was radiant, curiously opening a pair of smart apricot eyes, carefully looking at the woman in front of her who was descending the mountain not far from her.
She and Chu Wenze were walking on the white marble steps, but this time they were not going up the mountain, but they were going down.
Originally, the two of them shouldn't have left the Fuyao Sect so early, they were guests of the Fuyao Sect, so they had to stay for a few days. It's just that Chu Xiuyang made a fuss in front of Luo Xinran last night, and the sect master was kind and persuasive, so he didn't get angry, but Chu Wenze felt that she had lost the royal face. Although he was angry, he couldn't do anything about Chu Xiuyang, so he didn't rush down the mountain early in the morning.
It just so happened that he had a few friends to visit when he went to Xicheng, so he took this rare opportunity to play in Xicheng for two more days, which was much more interesting than the boring palace. However, Sect Master Cai, who was part-time responsible for supervising the words and deeds of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, also secretly wrote down this article.
Chu Wenze and Chu Xiuyang also glanced at Gu March who was kneeling when they went up the mountain, so they met her. After he heard about Gu March's tragic experience, he also expressed deep sympathy, but it was no wonder that Fuyao Sect was in this matter, and he didn't know how to decide. Now that I see that she is still alive and well, and that spirit is completely different from the previous two days, I am also surprised that what has happened to her in the past two days.
Chu Xiuyang jumped left and right beside her as if she had seen a baby, looking up and down curiously, as if she couldn't get enough of it.
Chu Wenze also smiled helplessly, although this sister of his family loves to mess around, her innocent and romantic temperament is really cute, no wonder he can't be angry.
Gu March had already noticed the four masters and servants here, and her long-term experience of walking outside made her very wary of the few people who came from unknown sources but deliberately approached her, and saw Chu Xiuyang looking at her unabashedly, she was inevitably nervous, and she quickened her pace, wanting to go down the mountain first.
Where would Chu Xiuyang let her go? She practiced martial arts again, rubbed the ground twice and ran to Gu Yueyue's side, and she looked like a fart.
Gu Yue finally couldn't help it, frowned, and asked, "The girl has been following me, what is the matter?"
Chu Xiuyang blinked and asked, "Does it have to be something to follow you?"
Gu Yueyue didn't know that she was a princess, so she glared at her angrily and warned, "Don't follow me if it's okay."
With that, she quickened her pace to go down the hill.
Chu Xiuyang shouted anxiously from behind, "Eh...... Slow down, I'm not a bad person, I know you. It's under that plaque that I've seen you."
Gu March turned her head around at this time, and said word by word with a cold face: "Since you know that I am kneeling under the plaque, you shouldn't mention it now to humiliate me."
Chu Xiuyang was stunned for a moment, and quickly explained, "I didn't mean that! I'm ...... I've actually helped you in the Fuyao Sect! I had a fight with that Fuyao Sect Master, and I wanted him to give you one
I was scolded by my brother."
Gu Yue was confused at this moment, and asked, "Who are you, how can you speak in front of the sect master of the Fuyao Sect?"
Chu Xiuyang saw that her expression was relaxed, and he immediately raised his eyebrows, patted his chest and said, "I'm a ...... of Fusang Country."
"Xiuyang!"
Chu Wenze's blaming voice sounded in her ears, and Chu Xiuyang retorted
You should come here, you can't say your identity.
But halfway through the words, she had to stammer, "Fusang Country...... National! I'm a national of Fuso, huh...... It's the one who shook the sect master, uh...... Bastard!"
Chu Xiuyang seemed to be proud of his "intelligence", and emphasized again: "Yes, that's right, it's an illegitimate daughter!"
Gu Yueyue glanced at her strangely, and then looked at Chu Wenze behind him, thoughtfully. No wonder these two people were accompanied by two guards, who should have been sent by the Fuyao Sect Master to protect them.
Gu March couldn't help but smile in his heart. is a good immortal family, the disciples are ruthless and unrighteous, but the sect master is an amorous thing, and he still has illegitimate children outside, what is the difference between it and the rotten princely family?
In this way, it is better to meet the man I met this morning.
Chu Wenze was so anxious that she broke out in a cold sweat, and as soon as her illegitimate daughter said it, her illegitimate hat's hat was naturally buttoned up. This little sister is smart and cute on weekdays, but why is this brain like an ornament?
Chu Wenze held his forehead, quite a headache. If it goes on like this, sooner or later I will have to be angry with her.
Gu Yue sneered and said, "The girl and the son are both big shots, I am a grass people, and I am not worthy to go with the two of them, so I will leave."
Gu Yueyue made up her mind to leave this time, she didn't look back, turned around and walked down the mountain, no matter how Chu Xiuyang called, she didn't look back.
Chu Xiuyang didn't know what he had done wrong, he looked at Chu Wenze with an aggrieved face, and complained with tears in his eyes, "Brother, what did I do wrong? I also want to ask her how she got off the cliff, why did she leave?"
Chu Wenze looked at the poor Chu Xiuyang, and felt that it was not persuasion, nor was it scolding, he was really helpless.
He had no choice but to sigh and say, "Forget it, I don't blame you, this matter must not be explained. I'll take you to Xicheng first, go there to eat delicious food, have fun, and don't mention this matter first."
Chu Xiuyang said bitterly, "Okay then."
Chu Wenze knocked on the gold-painted fan on his hand and reminded, "Do you remember, in five days it will be March 17th, and it will be the Lantern Festival in Xicheng, do you want me to take you to play?"
Chu Xiuyang's eyes lit up, his face suddenly turned cloudy, and he smiled happily: "Okay, good, I have long heard that the lantern festival there is very beautiful, but unfortunately I stay in the palace every year and I haven't seen it!"
Chu Wenze touched her head dotingly and said, "Okay, brother will take you to see it."
Don't do your job, take the princess to the Lantern Festival. Sect Master Cai quietly wrote down this in his heart, but this did not affect the interest of the brother and sister in the slightest.
Chu Xiuyang jumped and walked in front, Chu Wenze walked behind her with a smile, the former called and the latter responded, and they carried each other, a beautiful scene.
Seeing that Sect Master Cai's expression was wrong, the old Taoist priest knocked on his arm with a whisk, and said softly, "I said Lao Cai, people have finally come out for a trip, so they have to spare people and spare people."
Grandmaster Cai opened his cloudy old eyes, glanced at the brother and sister, and suddenly felt that he should go to see the Lantern Festival once, as if he had to do this.
He squeezed out a rare smile, and said with a few words: "You're right, you should go."
The old Taoist priest laughed heartily, and the breeze on the horizon seemed to become sweeter.
But what the four masters and servants didn't expect was that a group of people had already targeted them. The group hid in the shadows and discussed countermeasures.
"You read that right, are they really the crown prince and princess?"
A man cowered and said in a trembling voice, "Ladies and gentlemen, that day at the bottom of the steps, I heard with my own ears that the woman calling herself this princess, and the elders from the Fuyao Sect also called her
Can they be wrong, Your Highness?"
A fierce-looking man sneered, "Hehe, good. If we can eat them, we will be very good. But ......"
He turned to look at the man and sneered, "If the news you say is wrong, I'll cut you open with a knife, understand?"
The man shuddered, almost frightened, and did not dare to disobey in the slightest, and said yes again and again.
"Hey...... Chu Wenze, Chu Xiuyang...... When I take you as a bargaining chip, I will see how the old dog of Fusang Kingdom will decide, and whether I dare to block the way of our demon clan! On the Huangquan Road, you brothers and sisters should be good companions!"
