Chapter 47: Kenshin
Most of the disciples went to the arena to watch the excitement, and there were few people in the academy, Sheng Xuanyan and Qiong also returned to the school, and he sat down in his place with his sword.
Joan also half frowned and called him: "Sheng Xuan." ”
Sheng Xuan replied with a low voice: "...... It's actually a bit tiring. ”
She could see that the last sword was a great burden on him.
He used his true qi to practice the Chengying Sword with his qi, and opened his eyes after a while: "Yue Huan's cultivation is high, and his swordsmanship is good, those who can cultivate the sword domain at such an age, let alone the five clans, even if you look at the ten factions in the rivers and lakes, you can't find a few people." ”
Joan also thought for a moment, "You're more powerful." ”
Sheng Xuan shook his head resentfully: "It's just that I practice a lot, and I still don't know a lot." If you are lucky enough to be able to cut through the sword domain today, you may be able to say next time. ”
Joan didn't know what to say, she only felt that something seemed wrong with Sheng Xuan's resentment, and she wanted to accompany him, but she couldn't say why.
Sheng Xuan looked at her resentfully, "Qiong Yi." ”
"You say, I'm here."
When Joan looked at him, he stopped talking. She smiled lightly, knowing that Sheng Xuanren was entangled in not knowing how to speak at this time, so she said, "Then let me guess what you want to say to me." ”
Sheng Xuan waited for her after leaving the scene, and walked to the unmanned school room, presumably having something to tell himself.
"Sending and receiving battle posts between disciples has nothing to do with the martial arts competition, right? Su Ye just fought according to the battle post you received, and also picked the most difficult Yue Huan to put in the first game, he must have his thoughts. If you're just trying to attract attention, there's more to it than that, right? ”
"Then you want to know, why did Su Ye do this?" Sheng Xuan asked lightly.
Qiong Yi flashed a thousand reasons in her mind, could it be that there was a holiday, or was there some unknown grievance?
Sheng Xuan rubbed the Chengying Sword and replied, "Because he said that Yue Huan is a person with a sword heart." ”
"And I didn't." He paused: "Su Ye wants me to feel it first." ”
Joan was also stunned, "Kenshin? ”
"Yes." Sheng Xuanyan raised his head and sighed, "It's ridiculous, isn't it?" I thought to myself that among my peers today, I could achieve the cultivation of swordsmanship without falling behind others, but I was extremely disgusted with the practice itself. ”
The sword light was dazzling, and the sound of the sword was piercing. When I held the hilt of the sword, I felt a sense of heaviness not only from it, but also from myself. Sheng Xuanyan said without any waves, as if he was telling something that had nothing to do with him, "I don't understand what the meaning of pursuing the pinnacle of cultivation is, because it is the shackles that others have put on me." Under the shackles, I have more expectations, and they make me become 'someone else' step by step. ”
Joan also didn't understand at first, but seemed to understand after two rounds of tossing and turning in her heart.
Before, Sheng Xuanren said that he was a person who believed in "life", and it was the "life" that others forced on him, and it was also the "shackles" he said.
Thinking of his gloomy face during his daily morning exercises, is it actually because he hates practice?
"It's much easier to say it." Sheng Xuanyan calmed down, looked at her and said, "Thank you for being willing to listen to me, Qiong Yi." ”
Qiong Yi patted him on the shoulder, with a faint smile: "It's uncomfortable to hold it in my heart, just tell me earlier." She said: "Whether it is other people's expectations or practicing to become stronger, I hope Sheng Jun can follow his own heart." ”
Sheng Xuan was stunned: "Hmm." ”
"When I was a child...... I never thought that one day I would be able to practice martial arts, and I ...... to my master and wife" Qiong Yi smiled bitterly: "They are kind to me, but I can't forget what they did to Uncle Chen." ”
"Whether it's grace or hatred, I can't tell clearly, there are some things in the world that can't be explained with these two words."
"Later, I started to practice swords under the guidance of my master, and he told me that the original intention of holding a sword is not to hurt people, but to protect people. From then on, I was determined to become stronger, so that I could protect Arlo. ”
"Sheng Xuan, you used to learn the sword, not for yourself, not for the things to protect, but one day you will find a reason to let you hold the sword. Perhaps, this is the so-called 'Kenshin'. ”
Sheng Xuan couldn't tell what it felt like in her heart, it was like a mess that had found a knot, and she was pulled out and dissolved little by little.
"Thank you."
Qiong Yi smiled and said, "It's good that you can figure it out, don't thank me, you are my life-saving benefactor several times." ”
Hearing this, he suddenly thought that if it weren't for his own self-cultivation, he wouldn't have been able to save her a few times.
Reasons to hold the sword...... Is it?
"There's my competition tomorrow, I have to go back and prepare well, I don't want to lose." Qiong also withdrew his hand and said with a smile, "I don't know if the battle post I sent you will be lined up!" ”
The battle post written by her had been properly put away by him, placed in the study, and was not taken to the ranking field.
Sheng Xuan replied resentfully: "Maybe." ”
Joan answered, and he watched her leave.
This is the first time that Sheng Xuanren has said the words that he has suppressed in his heart, he knows that this is just a meaningless roar of himself that has been distorted beyond recognition, but in front of her loud words, the resentment and unwillingness gradually faded.
He didn't want to be a shadow.
Sheng Xuan got up and walked out of the schoolroom, and before he crossed the corridor, he saw the elder of the Su family standing not far away.
"Young Master Sheng."
Sheng Xuan complained that he didn't know what was going on, so he approached and saluted, "The elder is waiting for me?" ”
The elder of the Su family looked a little solemn and asked, "The girl of the Lu family should have left, right?" He added: "The old man originally informed Master Lu to come here, but since Young Master Sheng was the captor of the hanging ghost and had a close relationship with Miss Lu, he thought that he should tell you the words of the female ghost." ”
Sheng Xuan resented that Su Ye said that the evil female hanged ghost had been sealed in "Daze". He said, "Elder, please speak." ”
The elder paused, and slowly spoke: "That female ghost said, Miss Lu is a 'half-spirit' infected with ghost energy, and there is a trace of extremely pure ghost spirit mixed in the spirit, which made her wake up and move the idea of soul devouring. ”
"'Half-spirit'?" Sheng Xuan's resentment was puzzled for a while, he had read the body of the "spirit body" in ancient books, and it was rumored that the good fate of the three generations could be cultivated into the "spirit body", and its body was no different from ordinary people.
"Half-spirit" is the heir born to a person with a "spirit", and will not inherit the good fortune of the "spirit", nor will it be a person or a ghost, and will become an ordinary person.
Joan is also a "half-spirit" body?
Sheng Xuan was suspicious and continued to listen to him:
"The old man doesn't know if this half-spirit body infected with ghost energy can only cause chaos among the little ghosts, or can awaken the sleeping ghosts. If only it could ...... That's the big problem. The elder sighed, "I have sent a letter to the Lu family, and after Young Master Sheng knows about this, he must not tell Miss Lu, for fear of causing panic." ”
"Well, I know. Sheng Xuan replied, he knew that Qiong was also extremely afraid of ghosts and evils, and it would be unimaginable if he let her know that he attracted them.
After a brief farewell to the elders, Sheng Xuanren also left the school, and doubts surfaced one after another: Who is Qiong Yi?
She said that she was a child adopted by Uncle Chen, with no father and no mother, and was accepted as a personal disciple by Sect Master Lu as an exception, so where did she come from before?
The scar on her back...... and, the ghostly "half-spirit" ......
Sheng Xuanyan shook his head and cleared his thoughts.
It would be nice if I could meet someone from the Lu family and ask.
*
The tournament continues.
The competition system is sorted by points, and wins are added and defeated. There are rings on the east and west campuses of the university, two in each place, and the layout is the same. After Su Ye finished the competition in his hand, he hurried to deal with affairs, personnel disputes, site maintenance, and other trivial matters in his opinion, which had to be reported to his ears and dealt with in person, which was a headache.
"There was an accident in the West 2 field, I'll deal with it." Su Ye said in a hurry.
Yan Tingshen replied: "Then I'll deal with the damage to the ring here?" ”
"I can't ask for it." Su Ye rushed to the west of the school field, thinking about how to arrange the aftermath manpower, through the bustling crowd, and suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar and disgusting figure, it was Su Changming!
"Su Changming? Hold it! Su Ye shouted with a gloomy face.
Su Changming, who wanted to squeeze out of the crowd quickly, turned around, but when he saw Su Ye rushing up with a sword, he scared off the people around him, and his tone was extremely heavy: "Didn't you cry and go back to your guard platform that night?" Still in Qingfeng Town? ”
Su Changming was surrounded by people watching, the surprise on his face was forcibly covered, he put away the folding fan with a "snap", and sneered: "My cousin has held an event, so as a brother, I naturally have to come to join in the fun." ”
Hearing this, Su Ye raised the Wind Sweeping Sword, Su Changming's expression changed suddenly, and he hurriedly retreated: "What do you want to do?" Do it to your brother in broad daylight?! ”
The people around them turned their heads to watch and whispered.
"Who is this?"
"I don't know ......"
"I know, I was scolded by Master Wang himself last time, and their classroom people caught him and scolded him for a long time!"
“……”
Su Ye put the wind on his shoulder, and sneered at him: "Cousin, why are you so surprised? He looked around with his afterglow and said, "Cousin, have you forgotten how you got out of this school last time?" Want to do it again? With that, he grinned and sneered and hooked his hand at Su Changming.
Su Changming gritted his teeth in his heart, and forced a smile on his face, he swallowed a breath and approached Su Ye's side, and said in a low voice: "I'm just here to see if my Yan'er's poison has been resolved, and to see if she is doing well in Sheng Xuan's hands." ”
Su Ye opened him with a palm: "Look for death!" ”
Su Changming was about to fall, stepped back and stabilized his body and let out a loud laugh: "Hahahahahaha!" Laughing as he walked out of the crowd.
What a madman! Pursued!
Looking at Su Changming's back as he disappeared into the crowd, Su Ye couldn't do anything to him, the titular "brother", in front of everyone, and scolded secretly, puzzled: Lu Xiyan is not a beautiful woman with a national color and fragrance, why did Su Changming bite to death?
No matter what, you have to tell Lu Xiyan at this time.
*
"Huh? Su Changming still dares to come to the university? Qiong Yi raised his forehead and exclaimed: "I didn't go to take revenge, but he still stared at me secretly?" ”
Su Ye nodded and said, "Don't be afraid of him, he's very vegetable." ”
"That little bit of cultivation, how could I scare him." She said, thinking in her heart, and said, "Su Ye, didn't you send Wei Ying's words back to the Su family?" Why is Su Changming still like a nobody? ”
Su Ye's face was covered with frost: "I sent it back, but you don't know that Su Yi, the father of that beast, dared to vouch for his son, secretly made a hindrance, pressed again and again, he is also the deputy sect master, powerful and powerful, and in the end, he didn't even send anyone to find out about the death, he just casually hung up a crime and said that Su Changming visited the Qinglou and harmed the disciples of the school, so he deducted his monthly money for half a year!" ”
"How can this be?!" Joan was also a little annoyed: "Your father is the sect master!" Can't he make a move? ”
“…… My father uses Su Yi very much, and he is a person who likes to reason, and after listening to the words in the gramophone, he only said that he could only be convicted if he had all the evidence. ”
Joan punched the table as well.
Su Ye sank: "When it comes to my clan's family affairs, let me deal with it." Su Changming is despicable, he loves to play tricks the most, although you don't have to be afraid of him, you must be careful, the poison he used on you last time came from the Western Desert ......"
He paused as he spoke, and pondered: "The Western Desert Kunzhai is good at Gu, I'm worried that he has something else in his hands. Lu Xiyan, in addition to being vigilant, if he still spreads some gossip outside, pretending to be a show, no one will believe him, and if he meets him, he will be beaten to death. ”
"Okay." Joan replied.
