9. The rest of his life is like a cage, swinging a sword to cut peach blossoms

The Hall of Things, when Gu Yusheng arrived, there were no more figures inside and outside the hall, and some people sighed for a long time, obviously not receiving a suitable task, plus Qingyunmen recruited more new disciples this time than in previous years, and coupled with the lack of resources in the sect, many tasks were still very challenging for new disciples.

Tasks such as sending a letter to an elder of the sect or helping to take care of the spirit pet were naturally snatched by someone, and some tasks similar to the experience of hunting demon beasts were challenging, and after being put aside for a while, they were still taken over by some disciples of the sect who had already practiced when they entered the mountain.

Gu Yusheng was a few years younger than the other disciples, and his thin figure walked into the wide hall of things, and the deacon elder had already been lying behind the counter and pretending to sleep, and cultivators were the most annoyed by being bothered, so Gu Yusheng came in, of course, no one would communicate with him, and all the newly released sect tasks were hung on the wall behind the counter, and if they were circled, it meant that they had been taken over.

Gu Yusheng was only a head taller than the counter, looked up for a while, and found that among the few remaining tasks, they were all extremely challenging, either to help find rare treasures, or to hunt fierce demon beasts.

The task of slaying demons that no one else can accept, Gu Yusheng doesn't think he has such an ability.

Suddenly, Gu Yusheng's gaze fell on a task card on the wall, the handwriting on it was different from that on other plaques, and it was written crookedly: Find a good wine, reward the sect with 100 contribution points.

Most of the sect contribution points for other tasks are within twenty.

Originally, a circle was marked on the quest board, but a dozen more crosses were later drawn.

There are many people who have taken on this task, and they have all failed?

Gu Yusheng was slightly stunned, and arched his hand: "Junior Gu Yusheng, bothering the seniors Qing Xiu, can I still take this task of 'looking for good wine'?" ”

The old man opened his loose eyes, and he didn't see Gu Yusheng at first sight, Gu Yusheng subconsciously took a few steps back and bowed again.

"Yes."

The old man's expression was cold.

Place two tokens on the counter.

"Just write the number of the claim task yourself."

"Thank you, senior."

Gu Yusheng took the sign, there was a rope hanging with a brush on the counter, he raised his arm to hold the brush with difficulty, and wrote the three words 'Ren Xu Liu' squarely above the token of the task, although the writing posture was a little difficult, but the words were well written.

The old man was a little surprised, his collapsed eyelids glanced at the young man more, and asked, "Gu Bai's son?" ”

Gu Yusheng nodded and said solemnly: "Back to seniors, yes." ”

The old man's eyes were calm, and he didn't look at Yu Sheng with colored eyes like everyone else, "There is a great chance of failure in this task, and the palace wine of the Great Xuan Dynasty has not been able to pass it, or you don't get one else, so as not to run back and forth, by the way, this task must be returned within a month, whether it fails or not." ”

Gu Yusheng arched his hand and said: "Senior, I have seen my father brew peach blossom wine, so I want to try it, if it fails, I will bother again." ”

"Go ahead."

The old man waved his hand and watched Gu Yusheng walk out of the hall.

He stared at the words on the receipt card and sighed: "The little guy who knows how to be polite, the words are also a bit of a bone, it's a pity."

The afterglow of the setting sun is reflected on the mountain paths.

The peach blossoms at the foot of the mountain are blooming, and the peach blossoms at the top are budding.

Peach blossom forest, quiet courtyard.

The young man in slightly wide clothes was holding a wooden sword in the courtyard and stabbing forward.

Today's trip to the martial arts arena was the day when Gu Yusheng learned the most knowledge after entering Qingyunmen, and he still remembered the shocking scene of Yu Qingshan, who was carrying the sword, using the hilt as the tip of the sword to cut down the bluestone cracks.

The wooden sword in his hand stabbed forward.

The tip of the sword pointed to a peach blossom tree in the small courtyard.

There is no sword light, and there is no sword shadow.

Although his body condensed the qi of the primordial fetus, he didn't know how to use it yet.

Yu Qingshan didn't teach him one and a half moves, but only told him to stab the sword ten thousand times.

And Gu Yusheng is also a persistent person, he believes that a person with a sword in his body will not lie to him.

Swish!

Swish!

The wooden sword stabbed out one by one.

Aim at a peach blossom.

The sword does not move.

The afterglow of the setting sun reflected a few mottled wisps and fell on the young man's delicate face.

The sweat that flowed turned into drops of crystal pearls and fell into the mud and dust with the sword he wielded.

Gu Yusheng has this sword in his heart and his heart is determined, when he was young, Gu Bai once held a book and said to him, the ancients said, 'Everything is foreseen, it is established, and if it is not prepared, it is wasted'.

Even though the peach blossom pattern did not move, Gu Yusheng still swung his sword for two hours.

When the sky was dark and the candlelight reflected the peach blossom branches, Gu Yusheng accepted the wooden sword, washed the sweat on his face with water, and a full smile appeared on the corner of Gu Yusheng's mouth, just now, the wooden sword in his hand was already able to swing a wisp of sword qi, and this wisp of sword qi was exactly what he tried to combine with the trick of condensing the Yuan Fetus after swinging the wooden sword again and again.

The body was already extremely tired, and after casually eating enough, Gu Yusheng began to condense the Yuan Fetus as usual.

After a while, Gu Yusheng's face showed a trace of doubt, the speed of condensing the Qi of the Yuan Fetus tonight seemed to be much faster than usual.

Early the next morning.

Gu Yusheng carried a bamboo basket to pick a basket of peach blossoms in the peach blossom forest, and picked some wild fruits in the mountains and put them on the side of the stream to prepare for leisure to make wine, although he had a peculiar gourd, but Gu Yusheng was snubbed after entering the Qingyun Gate, knowing that this Qingyun Gate was also wolf Gu Hu, everything must be cautious, when he was young, he learned to make peach blossom wine, this time to find the task of finding wine, he has made a plan, first pick some peach blossoms, and then look for some ordinary elixirs in the mountains and forests to confuse, and wait for the last few days, before putting the wine into the gourd and placing it overnight, Finally hand it over.

At the moment, condensing the yuan tire is the most important thing.

A new disciple needs to condense the Yuan Fetus within a year, and for Gu Yusheng, this means that he needs to condense the idea of a Yuan Fetus within a year, and the time has become extremely urgent.

With the help of the morning glow to condense the Yuan Fetus for two hours, Gu Yusheng once again felt that the cyan Yuan Fetus Qi in the dantian position formed a rotating vortex, as if it could be condensed into the Yuan Fetus at any time, but Gu Yusheng did not carry out the final condensation.

"It is said in the introduction of the Yuan Fetus Spirit that the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi contained in the body is mixed, and if you want to condense the pure Yuan Fetal Qi, you must continue to refine it, but how to refine the Yuan Fetal Qi of Heaven and Earth, you need to use the contribution points of the sect to go to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion to exchange the corresponding cultivation exercises."

Gu Yusheng held the wooden sword in his hand and fell into deep thought.

He originally wanted to complete the task as soon as possible in exchange for the sect's contribution points, but suddenly, he thought of the changes in the Yuan Fetal Qi flow in his body after practicing the sword yesterday.

"Maybe sword training is a good idea."

Gu Yusheng's eyes lit up.

He walked under a peach blossom tree, held a wooden sword, straightened his body, and stabbed out with a sword.

A sword light overflowed from the tip of the wooden sword, piercing a peach blossom.

Gu Yusheng's face was happy, he had already gotten a glimpse of the door and mastered the cultivation threshold of the Sword Qi Realm.

Next, Gu Yusheng stabbed several more swords, and peach blossoms fell on each sword.

But the joy of the first sword had receded, and Gu Yusheng suddenly thought that Yu Qingshan had told him that the essence of the sword qi realm was to hide!

"If I can sword out without being surprised, it can be regarded as a real sword achievement, and now, my sword qi control is extremely unstable."

Gu Yusheng took a deep breath, feeling guilty for being complacent just after making a little progress.

Readjusting his breathing, Gu Yusheng no longer showed off his skills in the sword, and just stabbed out one sword after another by feeling.

"Three hundred and eighty-nine!"

"Three hundred and ninety!"

Gu Yusheng silently counted.

Stabilizing his mind, he tried to inject the Yuan Fetal Qi in the dantian into the wooden sword in his hand, although it was still a simple sword action, each sword made Gu Yusheng have a different understanding.

Little by little, time passed.

In the peach blossom forest, the young man faced a peach blossom tree and tirelessly waved the wooden sword in his hand.

"Today's goal, three thousand swords!"

Gu Yusheng set a goal for himself, and he already felt that the wooden sword in his hand had become weighty, and it was heavy on his hand.

Already on the verge of detachment.

The frequency of each swing of his sword is not fast, if he stabs quickly, or just for the goal, ten thousand swords a day can be completed.

But Gu Yusheng understands that a person's efforts are not to move outsiders, nor to move themselves, but to have a firm belief in the heart and indomitable progress, which is the real effort.

"Look, there are people in the Peach Blossom Forest who practice swords!"

Every afternoon, there are disciples of Qingyunmen who cross the cloud bridge from the six peaks to come to the town demon monument to pay a silent salute.

Standing on the cloud bridge where the fairy mist drifts, you can see the most beautiful peach blossoms of Qingping Mountain, from February to May every year, the peach blossoms of Qingping Mountain bloom from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain.

"It's true, although the peach blossoms in the mountains are beautiful, but after entering the forest, the rain and dew are extremely wet, who is that?"

On the cloud bridge, there were several female disciples standing from Luochen Peak, looking at the faint thin young man curiously.

"I don't know."

"Shouldn't sword practice be going to Yunfeng?"

A female disciple looked puzzled.

"But he's taking care of the rest of his life."

Another female disciple covered her mouth and smiled.

When the rest of the female disciples heard this, they all giggled and laughed.

A woman in Tsing Yi thoughtfully: "No wonder, I heard the master and her old man say, the peach blossoms are 3,000 branches, although it is a spring scene in the world, but it is easy to draw the ground as a prison, let us not go deep into the peach blossom forest, so as not to stain the heart with dust and mud, delay the practice, this Gu is also pitiful for the rest of his life, his father's sin, coupled with the body, like him to practice swords, can he cut all the peach blossoms out of the cage?" ”

A group of female disciples, Yingying Yanyan, walked on the cloud bridge, just as the young man was also a scene in the peach blossom forest, adding some happiness to the boring cultivation.

"Two thousand nine hundred and nine."

Gu Yusheng had no distractions, his face was pale, and the wooden sword in his hand was trembling.

"It's just a sword!"

Gu Yusheng gritted his teeth, and the wooden sword in his hand fell from his fingertips.

The last sword, the goal was not achieved.

"Tomorrow's target is 3,100 swords, and the penalty will be increased by 100 swords, and if it can't be completed, another 100 swords will be fined!"

Gu Yusheng picked up the wooden sword and hung it on his waist, his clothes were soaked with sweat, and he walked in the peach blossom forest little by little.

Back in the small courtyard, Gu Yusheng took off the gourd, took a sip, and recovered some strength.

Wash the peach blossoms and put them in an earthen urn, put the wild fruits in the mountains in a wooden barrel, and make sake in time without being in a hurry.

Closing the door of the small courtyard, Gu Yusheng tried to condense the Yuan Fetus, the original tired body, like a dry rice field, suddenly encountered the rain and dew in the sky, he could clearly feel that the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi was swarming into the body.

Gu Yusheng silently pinched the trick, guiding the full vitality to expand the dantian.
