Chapter 31: The Sword Appreciation Conference
"How is it, isn't our sister Wanwan very beautiful?" A woman asked Lin Yin softly with a smile.
Lin Yin looked up, it was the Qionghua disciple named Su Yu, a little embarrassed, scratched the back of his head and said, "Eh, it's very good-looking." He glanced at Su Yu again and said, "Sister, you are also very good-looking." ”
Su Yu grinned and said, "You can still listen and talk, but our family doesn't like flamboyant boys." Lin Yin hurriedly said: "Then what kind of does she like?" As soon as he said it, he felt that something was wrong, and he smiled: "I'm not flamboyant, sister, you are really good-looking." ”
"Poof." Su Yu said again: "Yue Shaoxia, although we are young in the evening, our martial arts are very remarkable. He said again: "Yue Shaoxia's martial arts must be very powerful, right." Lin Yin hurriedly said: "It's not powerful, it's not great, I just joined the Huashan faction not long ago, and my martial arts are not good." ”
Su Yu sighed and said, "Seeing that you don't have any difficulty going up the mountain, it doesn't look like you have just practiced martial arts." Then he came to his senses and said, "I understand, you are a beginner in art." Lin Yin nodded and said, "Yes, I have been practicing martial arts for more than half a year before going up the mountain, and the martial arts of our Huashan faction have not had time to learn it for the time being." Su Yu glanced at Lin Yin and nodded, but he was noncommittal in his heart.
After reaching the peak, Qing Yuzi asked Lin Yin to take the four young disciples to the dormitory of the Qionghua faction, and he took Lu Hongqi to follow Xiaoxiaozi to meet the elders of the Huashan faction, and Lin Yin couldn't ask for it. However, along the way, there was no chance to communicate with Gongxi Wanwan, so I sent them to the hostel, although I was a little reluctant, I had to leave first.
When it was time to practice at night, Lin Yin realized that something was wrong: he had never been able to calm down and practice, and as soon as he closed his eyes, he would think of the Gongxi evening of the Qionghua faction. "It's over, why do I always think about her, I can't practice hard now, could it be that she poisoned me somewhat? No, tomorrow I have to ask Master if there is any kind of poison that can make the poisoned person remember the poisoner. Then he thought, "There's no reason for her to poison me, we haven't met before." Lin Yin thought of another girl, Ren Yue, and only remembered that she was very happy when she was with Ren Yue, but she didn't have the idea of looking at Ren Yue all the time. Thinking of this, he was shocked again: "Xiao Yue's whereabouts are unknown, if you don't save her, you don't practice well, try to find it, you're thinking about some messy things, it's too deserved, damn it." He forcibly suppressed his mind, cleared his mind, and practiced again. People have the most abundant feelings when they are young, and they always want to be closer to the opposite sex when they meet cute or beautiful, but the treatment is so that the people who open their feelings will always want to be with them, Lin Yin is young, and there is no one to guide him, so he doesn't understand this.
After barely washing the acupoints once, and meditating and practicing several times, he stopped thinking nonsense at all, which is rare for a teenager. On a winter night in Huashan, the cold wind howled like a horn, and the young people in the house kept repeating the acupuncture points, meditating and practicing, and then washing the acupoints, unmoved by the sound of the wind. Unconsciously, in the eight veins of the Qi Sutra, Ren Du and the second veins of the stroke, Baihui, Zhongji, Guan Yuan, and Lianquan have nowhere to open and close, and there are faint traces of opening and closing. The Qi Sea Acupoint in the Ren vein seems to have a flash of brilliance. However, Lin Yin was almost ignorant of this, and only slightly felt that his lower abdomen was a little swollen. He didn't know that it was the Qi Sea Acupoint that was flickering, and he thought that the practice was wrong, and the force of washing the acupoint was slightly greater, so it caused stomach discomfort.
After practicing for half a night, I felt a little sleepy and fell asleep. On the second day, I got up early in the morning and practiced the thirteen styles of the Sword Pavilion and the ten scattered swords, and then went down the mountain to receive the guests. Before going down the mountain, she quietly went to the dormitory of the disciples of the Qionghua Sect and walked around, but she didn't see Gongxi Wanwan, even her senior sister and master. But when he came down the mountain, he saw Manichaeans
After a few days of going up and down the mountain, it was finally the day of the sword appreciation meeting. On the first day, the leaders of the various sects and the main upper echelons gathered on the platform of Dongfeng Mountainside, where the leaders exchanged sword appreciation, discussed the major events of martial arts in recent years, and resolved some sect disputes. In previous years, only Shaolin Temple, Kunlun faction, Emei faction, Diancang faction, Qionghua faction, Yunnan Five Immortal Sect, Shuzhong Tang Sect, Beggars Gang and other major sects were eligible to participate in the first day of the sword appreciation conference, but this year, there is another Manichaeism. As the host, it goes without saying that the Huashan faction is the host.
On the first day of the conference, Lin Yin naturally had no chance to participate, but he was also idle, so he practiced alone in the room, and occasionally went out for a walk, so it was needless to say where he went. It's a pity that they met on the first day, and they haven't seen Gongxi Wanwan since then, and once Su Yu accidentally found himself swaying in front of their hall, which scared him red-faced and red-eared.
After the first day, the next few days were when everyone gathered at the south peak of Huashan Mountain to do a real sword appreciation competition. Many famous swords that have never appeared before, and new masters will emerge in these days, and they will be very lively from beginning to end. The south peak is also known as the Luoyan Peak, which is the highest peak of Huashan, even if you look at the five mountains, it can be the most. Climb to the top of the south peak, suddenly feel that the sky is close at hand, and the stars can be picked. Raise your eyes and look around, but see the mountains undulating, the sky is reckless, the Yellow River Weishui is like silk, the desert plain is like silk, and you can take in the bottom of the eye, so that you can truly appreciate the majestic and majestic atmosphere of Huashan, and enjoy the magical taste of walking on the clouds as if you are in the sky. At the top of Luoyan Peak, there is an oval-shaped boulder, which is more than ten zhang high. Under the boulder is a complete stone platform, which is extremely large and can accommodate thousands of people standing or sitting without crowding. On the stone platform, a platform has already been built with giant trees and mountains, and the length and width of the square platform are more than ten zhang. At the northernmost end of the square platform is a row of upward steps, with seats on them, which are thought to be for the heads of major gangs and the seniors of martial arts to sit.
On the second day of the sword appreciation conference, more than half of the hour, the peak of Luoyan Peak was already crowded, and three or four thousand people gathered in a bustling manner, so it was not lively. The position of Lin Yin and the other low-level disciples of Huashan is on the west side of the square platform, leaning on the north seat, and the position is excellent.
"Senior Brother Yue, I see that you are carrying two swords on your back, and they are wrapped so tightly, are you planning to go on stage to show off your sword later?" It was Luo Xiangbing, a disciple who lived in the same courtyard as Lin Yin, who was not very friendly to him when he went to eat on the first day.
Lin Yin grinned and said, "Senior Brother Luo said that it was funny, although my two swords are very good, but I want to go on stage to appreciate the swords, I'm afraid there are still some shortcomings." ”
Luo Xiangbing snorted and said: "Although Senior Brother Yue has two swords, he has not yet learned the swordsmanship of our Huashan faction. "Luo Xiangbing has always been narrow-minded and extremely mean, and for some reason, since the first day, he has disliked Lin Yin very much, and even for no reason. In fact, many people will be like this, and they will inexplicably hate or like someone.
Chen Tian, another disciple of the same academy, who has always only looked forward to Luo Xiangbing, also echoed on the side: "Senior Brother Luo is good, and caring for his junior brothers and sisters is a fine tradition of our Huashan faction. Lin Yin looked at Chen Tian and saw that he was born quite strong, born with a red face, and his appearance was honest, but he seemed to be stupid and good.
Lin Yin knew that Luo Xiangbing was provoking, and he didn't want to confront him, so he said: "Senior Brother Xie Luo is kind, but Master Xiaoxiaozi will naturally teach me when he is free, and he won't trouble Senior Brother anymore." ”
Luo Xiangbing frowned and said, "Your master is Xiaoxiaozi...... Teacher? "Uncle Shi almost missed two words. Seeing his expression, Lin Yin guessed that he must have a dislike with Xiao Xiaozi, but the generations are different, at most, Luo Xiangbing doesn't like Xiao Xiaozi, but Xiao Xiaozi may not know him.
Lin Yin no longer paid attention to Luo Xiangbing, then walked to Chen Zijun, who was a few steps away, and asked, "Senior Brother Chen, is this platform used for martial arts competitions?" "Lin Yin had only seen a stage in the town before, but it was not so wide, so she was very curious.
Chen Zijun saw that it was Lin Yin, and said with a smile: "I am also the second time I have seen the sword appreciation conference, and the stage three years ago was far less spacious than it is today. It is not only a martial arts competition, but also a sword appreciation. He also explained: "Sword appreciation means that someone takes out some famous sword weapons for everyone to watch and play, and so on." Lin Yin said: "I see, this is a bit similar to the bright pig club in our countryside, but one is a weapon, and the other is a pig." Chen Zijun was stunned for a moment, and laughed: "That's pretty much it." ”
Lin Yin looked around again, trying to find where the disciples of the Qionghua Sect were, but unfortunately he was young and short, and he couldn't see far in the crowd, so although the female disciples of the Qionghua Sect were eye-catching, Lin Yin couldn't see it. After shaking for a while, suddenly three cannons rang out, and the sound shook the sky, and many people jumped.
After three sounds, a middle-aged Huashan disciple stood on the square platform, made a square salute, and said loudly: "Heroes, fellow martial artists, Huashan faction Feng Qingzi, hello everyone." "Feng Qingzi is dignified, elegant in temperament, and his martial arts are also considered to be outstanding among the current second generation of disciples of the Huashan faction. The first generation of disciples is naturally the generation of the head of the family and several elders, and Lin Yin and the others are the third generation of disciples. Of course, if the first generation of disciples dies and retires in the future, the second generation will be promoted to the first generation. There are no written rules, just a name, and there is no need to go into details.
After Feng Qingzi finished the first sentence, everyone in the audience replied and said hello, and their voices were louder than the other, for fear that others would not hear them. Feng Qingzi raised his hand to signal the audience to be quiet, and said: "Although the sword appreciation conference is held in Huashan, it is actually a common event of fellow martial artists in the world. As the venue of the previous sword appreciation conferences, we have always been very smooth thanks to the love and support of all my colleagues. Therefore, this sword appreciation conference will naturally start harmoniously, carry out wonderfully, and end satisfied. Feng Qingzi saluted everyone again and continued: "For the smooth holding of this sword appreciation conference, I still need your support and cooperation. I hope that whether it is a colleague who brings a famous weapon for everyone to admire, or a hero who comes to compete in martial arts, or a friend who is just to see and watch, there will be no trouble here. No matter what new and old hatreds there are between you, and if you have any grievances, please let them go in the past few days, don't embarrass others and disturb the smooth holding of this sword appreciation conference. Feng Qingzi saluted again and said, "I would like to thank all the heroes for their love and cooperation." After Feng Qingzi finished speaking, the audience shouted again and again, and shouted: "Which bear son dares to cause trouble here, Lao Tzu is the first to ......; Don't worry, Daoist Feng Qingzi, we will definitely not make trouble here. "And so on.
