Chapter 6: The Other Side of the Narrative
Forget it, let's not be angry with this kind of monster, it's not worth it.
Chen Ci thought in his heart,
But there's one more thing she doesn't understand.
"Xu Gongzi's kendo talent can be said to be peerless, but as far as I know, Xu Gongzi didn't like to practice martial arts since he was a child, so I don't know why he started practicing swords today?"
Chen Ci decided to break the casserole and asked in the end,
Aside from that amazing kendo talent,
She began to wonder if Xu Lan had really been planted with demons by the people of the Demon Sect, otherwise it would be difficult to explain that a person who didn't like to practice martial arts suddenly picked up a sword.
"Probably... It has something to do with yesterday's robbery. β
Xu Lan had already prepared a set of rhetoric for this, he looked at Chen Ci and said with a smile: "I can go home safely after being robbed once, but what about the second and third times?" β
Chen Ci was silent,
Well-founded, it's really fine.
"So, I suddenly woke up."
Xu Lan said calmly: "Whether it's for yourself or for the people around you, there is no harm in practicing martial arts. β
"That's right, it's better to rely on others than on yourself."
Chen Ci very much agrees with this point of view.
"However, if Xu Gongzi started to lay the foundation when he was seven or eight years old, he must have been a kendo master by now."
There is a little regret in the tone of the statement,
In her opinion, with Xu Lan's talent, if she had started practicing since she was a child, I am afraid that her current kendo attainments would be unimaginable to ordinary people.
"Haha, it doesn't matter."
Xu Lan said with a smile: "I remember where I heard someone say before, swing the sword hundreds of millions of times, and travel thousands of miles is the sword immortal." β
"It's just a fallacy."
Chen Ci frowned slightly, isn't this kind of fallacy misleading?
Although she didn't have a good impression of a swinger like Xu Lan at first, she also changed her opinion of him a lot after this contact.
Of course, the most important thing is that Xu Lan showed an extremely amazing talent for swordsmanship.
"yes, I know."
Xu Lan nodded, but secretly said in his heart: "But in a sense, the bad woman is not wrong..."
Originally, Guan Chuchu was just ridiculing himself, but who would have thought that he would get a golden finger because of this.
"Childe, it's time for dinner."
At this time, Qingluan on the side said softly, and Xu Lan raised his head slightly only to find that it was noon before he knew it.
"Okay, tell Madame that you won't eat at home."
Xu Lan's eyes fell on Chen Ci and said with a smile: "Miss Chen, you shouldn't mind going to Tongqing Building for a meal together, right?" β
"But I need a change of clothes."
Chen Ci nodded and did not refuse, but after a morning of sword practice, the clothes on his body were already soaked with sweat.
"Okay."
Xu Lan nodded, the clothes on his body were already soaked, and he also had to change his set.
After a while, Xu Lan, who was dressed in a white robe, and Chen Ci, who was wearing a light-colored long skirt, walked out of the gate of Xu's mansion together, followed by the two sisters, Qingluan and Hongluan.
I have to say that the clichΓ© who changes into casual clothes and walks on the street can make many men turn back frequently, and the light-colored long skirt makes it a little less heroic but a little more lively that a girl should have.
Although Chen Ci is not stunning, it is also quite eye-catching in the crowd, especially her long legs, which are too eye-catching.
After taking off her official robe, Chen Ci was like a normal girl, walking side by side with Xu Lan on the streets of Qingzhou.
Most of the time her eyes were on the street stalls selling women's jewelry and all kinds of small items.
But Xu Lan found that even though Chen Ci liked these things very much, he didn't have the slightest desire to buy them, but put them in his palm and played with them for a while before moving to the next stall.
"Miss Chen, why don't you buy it if you like it?"
Xu Lan, who was following her, smiled dumbly, the people of the Hanging Mirror Division wouldn't even be able to take out this money, right?
"If you like it, you must buy it?"
Hearing this, Chen Ci tilted his head slightly and said with a light smile: "Although some things are good, they may not be suitable for you, so just take a look." β
"How so?"
Xu Lan opened his mouth and said: "It's a matter of course that women like to dress up, how can there be anything that is suitable or not?" β
"yes, that's just for the average woman."
Chen Ci shook his head and said, "People like us who live a life of licking blood from the knife all day are different, these things are too luxurious. β
Hearing this, Xu Lan suddenly realized.
In these years, the official food is not so delicious, and one of them will accidentally die in the hands of those outlaws.
Especially since she is still a member of the Hanging Mirror Division.
"But with Miss Chen's skills, I don't think I need to worry too much."
Xu Lan asked as he walked, "The cultivators of the Three Realms, I can't find many in the entire Qingzhou. β
Although he didn't practice martial arts before, he also had a certain understanding of martial arts practice.
It's a long way to practice,
For most cultivators, it is difficult for them to become second-realm cultivators in their lifetime.
Not to mention those who can become cultivators of the Three Realms, all of them are rare.
And Chen Ci is under the age of twenty.
"It's a big world."
Chen Ci shook his head and said with a smile: "There are only a handful of cultivators in the Three Realms within this Qingzhou, but for the entire Great Chu Dynasty, the cultivators of the Three Realms are just slightly stronger ants. β
As a member of the Hanging Mirror Division,
She knew very well that in this river and lake, what three realms, what four realms, in the end, there was no difference to those who stood at the top of the pyramid.
"Speaking of which, there is a question that Miss Chen needs to solve for me."
Xu Lan said with a serious face: "Is there really a sword immortal in this world?" β
"I don't know."
Chen Ci smiled lightly: "It is rumored that there are immortals above the Nine Realms, but there has never been any historical record of who can become an immortal in the tens of millions of ancient and modern times. β
"Isn't that immortal in the world?"
"Perhaps, although a cultivator who breaks through the realm can increase a certain amount of longevity, there are very few cultivators who can become a cultivator of the Nine Realms."
Chen Ci shook his head and said, "As for the things above the Nine Realms, who knows. β
"Is it difficult to become a Nine Realms cultivator?"
There weren't many memories of cultivators in Xu Lan's memory, and now he could take this opportunity to get to know each other.
"Difficult."
Chen Ci paused and said: "It is difficult to ascend to the sky, and the cultivation is originally against the sky, especially after the cultivation reaches the Five Realms, if you want to break through, the thunder tribulation will fall." β
"The Tribulation..."
Xu Lan was slightly surprised in his heart, it sounded like there was a force in the dark that was restricting cultivators.
"Yes, if you survive it, you can continue to practice."
Chen Ci seemed to remember some bad memories, and his voice was a little depressed, "I have a senior brother who died in the thunderstorm. β
Xu Lan: ......
"I'm sorry."
Xu Lan didn't expect to be able to touch Chen Ci's sad past.
"It's okay, it's been a few years."
At this time, Chen Ci stopped, and Xu Lan noticed that her gaze fell on a pair of delicate silver earrings on the stall in front of her.
