Chapter Twenty-Four: It Is the Best Sword in the World

Le Chaotian and Qingjiao were still talking outside the small building, and they didn't know what they were talking about.

Nandao didn't listen, just stood quietly on the stone steps where the old man had left, quietly looking into the distance.

For some reason, he suddenly felt as if he had heard someone say such a thing when he was asleep somewhere.

After boarding the other shore and giving up the boat, he re-entered the cycle of being sentient beings.

Is that the case?

What is the other side, is it enlightenment, or is it just that you have reached the spiritual realm of your ideals?

Nandao felt like she didn't know.

I'm only fifteen years old, what can I know?

When Nandao was still thinking about these things, Wu Dalong walked up along the mountain road, saw that Nandao was the only one here, was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Master?" ”

Nandao was silent for a moment and said, "Let's go." ”

Wu Dalong stood there stunned and asked, "What do you call leaving?" ”

Nandao thought for a while and said, "Probably to go back to be a member of the world?" I don't know what I didn't do when I was a teenager, middle-aged, and old-fashioned, but that's probably it. ”

"You mean he's going down?"

"Yes."

Wu Dalong finally understood, and the thirty-five-year-old man looked panicked, and he jumped in place in a hurry, as if he was about to cry, and there was some crying in his voice.

"Master, Master, why are you leaving!" Wu Dalong pulled his sleeves and wiped his tears, and ran down the mountain. "It's okay for me to pick two little cabbages for you to take away!"

Wu Dalong chased down the mountain.

So Wu Dalong's eager and reluctant call came all over the mountains.

"Master~"

"Master~"

"What a point!"

But maybe He Zhizhi has gone far, or maybe he is old and has his ears behind his ears, and he really can't hear such a distant call.

Therefore, in those misty green mountains, there is no free and easy answer after a lifetime of depression - the world.

......

Master, Master.

Where are you going?

......

Nandao watched the picture quietly at the mouth of the canyon.

Some people drifted away, and some people cried and jumped like children and chased after them.

Maybe it will catch up, maybe it won't.

The conversation between Qingjiao and Le Chaotian finally ended, Le Chaotian walked proudly towards the small building, and the woman in red, Qingjiao, came towards Nandao with a sword.

"You'll need to find me a new place to live." Green Pepper looked at Nandao and said.

After Qingjiao asked that question last night, Nandao was silent for a while, and told her, then you can live upstairs.

But maybe Qingjiao's attitude was too cold and arrogant, maybe it was because she stood in the canyon yesterday and scared Le Chaotian and the others, and Le Chaotian resolutely disagreed to let her live in a small building.

I just don't know what Le Chaotian said.

Anyway, Green Pepper agreed, and then ran to find Nandao.

Nan Dao thought about it for a long time, and didn't mention where to stay, but just asked, "Why did Senior Tingfeng Yin let you come over?" ”

Qingjiao said calmly, "I didn't ask. ”

Nandao was silent under the umbrella for a while, and said, "You can build your own house by the canyon." ”

Qingjiao frowned and looked at the young man in front of him for a long time, and then said slowly: "Okay." ”

Nan Dao didn't say anything more, turned around and walked towards Xiao Lou.

Le Chaotian was blowing gourd silk on the small building, whining, those money bags kept swaying in the autumn wind, making trivial sounds, seeing Nandao walking up, Le Chaotian asked curiously: "The old man is gone?" ”

Nandao nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Le Chaotian seemed to sigh a little and said, "That's a pity." ”

Nandao looked at him and asked, "What's the pity?" ”

"Although this old man squats in the sword throwing pool all day long, but it is also very interesting, before the junior brother came, I played tunes in the Sword Sect every day, Senior Brother Wu was watering vegetables and striking iron, and the five little ones sometimes came over to harm me, and then went to harm the old man. Then you'll see an old man running around the hill chasing five little kids, saying things like bullying me for being old and powerless. ”

Le Chaotian said, looked at Nandao again, then smiled, and said, "Also, Senior Brother basically hasn't dealt with him much, so I probably won't feel this way." ”

Nandao said softly: "It's okay, in fact, there is a little. ”

Some stories can be glimpsed and the whole picture can be seen.

Le Chaotian smiled and said, "That's good, by the way, I heard Senior Brother Wu shouting something before, is this the old man's name?" When I asked before, this old boy just laughed and didn't say anything, he was so angry that I guessed why bother. ”

Nandao whispered, "Yes, a nice name. ”

Le Chaotian thought the same way, so he took off the sword in his hand, sat in the autumn breeze in the corridor, played the sword and sang.

Get off the horse and drink the wine, and ask the gentleman what to do.

The gentleman was unexpected, and returned to the South Mountain.

But don't ask again, when the white clouds are endless.

......

The sword of the Tianya Sword Sect was finally landed, and it should have been a happy thing, but as the old man floated away contentedly, there was also a little more melancholy in this mountain.

Nandao listened quietly, but couldn't help but chant a few words softly with Le Chaotian.

"Get off the horse and drink the wine, and ask the gentleman what to do. What's this tune? ”

Le Chaotian chuckled and said, "Farewell." ”

Unlike the songs of the past, today's songs are very clear.

The title of the song is also yes.

It's just a farewell.

Nandao thought to himself, but it was a pity that he was a father-in-law.

Otherwise, when Chen He left, he could sing him a tune.

Thinking like this, Nandao looked at Le Chaotian with some envy.

It's still a great junior brother!

The two of them sat quietly in the winding autumn wind for a while, and then watched the green pepper who had stood on the edge of the cliff for a while turn around and walked towards the canyon.

Probably going to build a house.

"What did you tell her, junior brother?"

Nandao looked at Le Chaotian on the side and asked.

Le Chaotian said with a slight smile: "Talk about life, talk about ideals, lay out facts, and be reasonable." ”

Nandao also learned Le Chaotian's words: "Senior brother, I believe it very much." ”

Le Chaotian laughed.

"Actually, it's very simple, I lied to her and said did you see those sword lights in the canyon before? That's what I made. Then she was silent for a long time before agreeing. ”

Nandao raised his eyebrows and looked at Le Chaotian and said, "She also believes such a clumsy lie?" ”

Le Chaotian said with a smile: "Senior brother, think about it, if you see countless sword lights falling in the distance, so you run over to take a look, and find that there is only a little kid there, but the little kid told you that he got these sword lights, if you don't leave, he will kill you, are you afraid." ”

Nandao was silent for a while, and said: "It seems that this is indeed the truth, after all, there is always a little possibility, but it is still a little ridiculous." ”

"That's right." Le Chaotian couldn't stop smiling, and said very seriously, "When talking to Jian Xiu, it's best not to be reasonableβ€”because the better the reasoning is, the more they will feel that you are weak-hearted, so they won't reason with you." ”

Nandao was silent for a while, looked at Le Chaotian and said, "Actually, I'm Tsing Yi." ”

Le Chaotian seemed to be very sincere and said: "Senior brother, don't scare me, I will really believe it." ”

β€œ......”

It doesn't matter if you believe it or not, anyway, between the brothers and sisters, it's just a couple of idle words.

Nandao walked downstairs with an umbrella.

"Where are you going?" Le Chaotian looked at Nandao and asked.

"Go and see if Lu Xiaoer and they are lost."

Nandao said.

After all, the mountain cliff is still a little far away.

Le Chaotian did not go with Nandao, probably for fear of being caught reciting poems.

Nandao walked alone with an umbrella to the back of the canyon.

There was a sound of swords in the distance.

When Nandao got closer, he realized that it was the green pepper cutting the tree there.

Perhaps there is a big difference between the sword cultivation in the East China Sea and the South.

Southern Sword Cultivator, whether it is Lingnan or the Human Sword Sect, likes to do everything himself, and he is probably happy to be in the world.

So do something, always close to the world.

Therefore, when the trees were cut down in the South Island, they held their swords and cut them down with a sword.

But green peppers are different.

It is probably because the East China Sea Sword Sect is close to the Grinding Sword Cliff, and the people who grind the Sword Cliff have always been taller than the sky. Therefore, the woman in red stood very sassy in the autumn wind and sent the sword trick, and the long sword behind her came out of the sheath with sword intent, and she walked through the forest very neatly, and many trees that looked quite thick fell into the mountain forest.

Nandao stood below and watched quietly in the sword wind, and Qingjiao also saw Nandao and didn't say anything.

"You're going to build a house out of just these pine trees?"

Nandao said suddenly.

Qingjiao glanced at Nandao and said calmly, "Is there any problem?" ”

Nandao was silent for a while, walked into the distance, and said, "There's no problem, I'm just thinking about this year's wind and snow, I don't know if it's big." ”

Qingjiao probably felt that Nandao was a little inexplicable, so he ignored it, fell, and carried the trees with the sword wind to the other side of the canyon.

Nandao held an umbrella and walked all the way to the high mountain cliff, there were some fallen maples everywhere, which should be the traces of Lu Xiaoer's walking, until they reached the cliff at the end of the clear stream, and those fallen leaves disappeared.

Unlike the previous few visits, the sword intent of Manxi here today is very active, which may be the reason why several swords have come out of here one after another.

Nandao walked to the edge of the cliff at the end of the stream, looking at all the scenery that fell downward, but he was also a little frightened.

Even though he already knew that this was the gate to Heavenly Town, but when he really wanted to jump, Nandao was still a little panicked.

I don't know how entangled Lu Xiaoer and Lu Xiaosan were when they stood here.

Nan Dao stood there and watched for a long time, then held the umbrella tightly, and the two swords behind him honked softly, ready to unsheath at any time, and Nan Dao was next, and Nan Dao stood in the approaching twilight, and stepped out of the cliff.

Step out.

The scenery of the world has changed a piece of the sky.

Nandao stood in the cloudy mountain cliff, but he inexplicably remembered what Cao Weiying said.

It's really just a mountain behind the mountain.

This is not Heavenly Town, but looking at the scattered peach blossoms falling on the ground, it should not be far from the big lake of Heavenly Town.

Perhaps this is among the hazy and mysterious cloud cliffs that the South Island has seen many times.

It's just that after falling into this, the sense of expectation for mystery has gradually disappeared.

It's just a mountain, it's just a fog, it's just a cliff shining in the sky.

Nandao stood on the cliff and looked back in the direction he had stepped in, where there was still nothing, no fluctuations, no gaps.

It's like roaming the world and accidentally breaking into a dream.

Nandao stood here and watched for a while, then held an umbrella, cleared the clouds, and headed down the mountain.

The mountain is steep, with occasional forests, and some hidden pavilions in the middle, in which there is nothing but silence after frost, and some scattered wine gourds, probably where the grass has drunk wine.

When I walked down the mountain, a stone path hidden in the fog appeared. There is also a stone tablet on the side, just like the one outside the heavenly town at the beginning.

There are two words on the stele.

Jingting.

Nandao held an umbrella and looked at it for a while, then walked along the stone path.

Passing through the stone path that I had tried to walk several times before, there was the familiar lake that surrounded half the town.

The South Island stopped at the end of the stone path, looking back at the mountains that had once again been obscured by the clouds.

Yes.

It's just a mountain, indeed.

Nandao walked out of the stone road, the grass was not under the peach tree, it was Lu Xiaoer sitting under the tree, with a sword on his knees, his eyes closed, not knowing what he was doing.

Lu Xiaosan is missing.

Grass for Fireflies.....

The grass is a firefly, and it should sleep in the sea of flowers next to it.

The shhhing sound was long and crisp, and it sounded like a good night's sleep.

Nandao didn't know what Lu Xiaoer was doing, so it was naturally difficult to disturb, so he waded across the sea of flowers with an umbrella and stopped beside Cao Weiying.

The young man in green clothes was very happy lying on his back in the sea of flowers, holding the reed in his hands and pressing it on his chest, as if he was afraid of being stolen, there were already a lot of petals on his body, and it seemed that he had slept for a long time.

How can you sleep so soundly!

Nandao sat down with an umbrella on the side, watching the grass sleep so comfortably for Hotaru that he was also a little sleepy.

Of course, the grass for Hotaru slept soundly, he had never slept so soundly since he had scared those swords of the Great Lake earlier.

If the Tianya Sword Sect knew that Cao Wei Firefly had swallowed so many of their swords, it was estimated that he would have to crawl out of the grave and give Cao Wei Firefly two blows.

But if she knew which idiot had done this, she would probably have to kill him and bring him back from the River Styx to kill him again.

A thousand years, a thousand years.

The tinkling of the bottom of the lake never stopped.

Nanjima saw that Hotaru slept so soundly, although he was very jealous, but he didn't wake him up, just wandered around the side, and then returned to the peach tree next to Sword Lake.

Lu Xiaoer crossed his sword on his knees, sat without distractions, and walked back and forth twice in Nandao, but he didn't wake it up.

Nandao initially thought he was sleeping, but just looked again.

Well?

This kid, see the mountain?

Even the sword intent was there, and a sword intent that seemed to be there stopped on the sword in his lap, and there was a surge of vitality around his body.

Is he really a genius too?

Of course, there are many geniuses in the world.

Lu Xiaoer naturally can't be ranked.

Nandao looked at it suspiciously for a long time, and became curious again, so what about Lu Xiaosan?

Of course Lu Xiaosan didn't have anything.

Lu Xiaoer practiced under the peach tree, and Lu Xiaosan was sent to the Sword Lake bitterly.

At first, this kid was quite a novelty.

Wow!

It turns out that there is no other world.

Wow!

The heavens are full of swords.

Wow!

The swords were coming towards them.

Wow!

How long the am I going to carry it?

After Lu Xiaosan's novelty, he finally realized this cruel truth.

No, I don't, I'm just a kid. I don't want to be a great sword cultivator, I'll starve to death here!

Lu Xiaosan ran away with his ignorant bell, but unfortunately the water and grass of the earth under him had blocked his way back, Lu Xiaosan struggled to plank the earth, but it was long and long, and there was no possibility of leaving at all.

And those swords followed behind him with perseverance, as if to say, dear little boy, what is my name!

Lu Xiaosan ran sadly and angrily on the moss and algae.

No, I don't want to endorse!

Uncle Shi, come and save me!

......

The story at the bottom of the lake Nandao naturally can't be seen, although I have moved the idea of going down to take a look, but I am afraid that Lu Xiaosan will be memorizing poems there, and he will be suddenly frightened by his appearance.

That's a heinous crime!

Nandao thought so, not knowing that at the bottom of the lake there was a sad little boy waiting for him to appear like a hero stepping on colorful auspicious clouds. He sat under the peach tree by the lake, waiting for the grass to wake up.

The grass slept soundly for the firefly, so when he woke up, he was also very happy, and he drank wine for a long time before stepping on the fallen flowers and walking to the lake.

Nandao was there looking at the peach tree.

"Why are you here again?"

Kusa asked as she looked at Nanjima.

Nan Dao looked at Lu Xiaoer on the side and said, "After all, I am their uncle, so I always have to come over to have a look." ”

Cao Weiying smiled softly and said, "Then it seems that I still underestimated you, I thought I was just a senior brother, but I didn't expect to be a senior." ”

Nandao also chuckled softly.

"What were you staring at this peach tree just now?" Cao Weiying remembered Nandao's actions just now, and asked suspiciously.

"I built a small building with my junior brother on the mountain, and I always felt that there were shortcomings, so I thought to see if I could move this peach tree."

β€œ......”

The grass was silently speechless.

"You kid, you set your sights on my tree as soon as you came? You dug up the tree, where do I sleep? ”

"In the sea of flowers, didn't you sleep soundly?"

"There's bugs in there."

"There are also under the trees."

The grass was silent for a while, and said, "Then when it grows a second plant, you can dig it up." ”

Nandao looked up at the peach blossoms on the tree, saw through the ghost flowers with fireflies at a glance, and said, "It won't bear fruit, where did the second plant come from?" ”

Cao Weiying just looked at Nandao quietly, and after a long time, he said slowly: "You really want to dig it up?" ”

Nandao thought for a moment and said, "If you want.....

Cao Weiying laughed softly, stood by the lake and drank wine, and said, "It doesn't matter if I want to or not, this is your tree in the first place." ”

Nandao remembered that hazy dream.

In my dream, I seemed to be standing by the lake, and then the grass climbed on top of me for fireflies, and I clicked and cut with big scissors.

So I subconsciously touched my ears.

"I always felt like you were bluffing me." Nandao said.

Grass shrugged for Hotaru.

Nandao didn't continue to dwell on the peach tree, and the attitude of the grass was very weird, which made him feel that there was a big problem.

So he looked at Lu Xiaoer and asked, "What is he doing?" ”

Cao Weiying looked back at the little boy sitting under the tree, and said lightly, "I plan to teach him a sword." ”

"Drunken Sword too?"

"It's not."

Cao Weiying laughed softly and said, "That's the best sword in the world." ”
