After seeing the statue of the patriarch of Sifang Mountain, Yu Nian was officially settled on Chaoxia Mountain.

Chaoxia Mountain is personally helmed by Zhang Xuanfu, the head of the sect. The scenery is tranquil and unique. Several stone houses stand beside the steep and towering stone rocks, and in front of the door is a flat and open stone lawn, surrounded by verdant bamboo and trees, as if isolated from the hustle and bustle of the world.

According to the disciple who led the way, Chaoxia Mountain is not the same as other lineages, because Zhang Xuanfu, the head of the sect, is always busy dealing with the affairs of various sects, and has no time to take care of the disciples, and Uncle Qi is young, and has always liked to go to the drum platform to exchange skills with colleagues, so in this Chaoxia Mountain, the incense is not particularly prosperous, among the three generations of disciples, after the rest of the year, there are only six disciples today, so the house is spacious and empty, but it seems more comfortable. ”

Even though the stone chamber of this Chaoxia Mountain is still a little shabby compared to the immortal mansion in Yu Nian's mind, it is enough to satisfy the immature young man who has just entered the immortal gate. In particular, this verdant and tranquil scenery seems to contain a strong fairy atmosphere in the rest of the year, and being able to live here has been cultivated by himself for several lifetimes.

It's just that the title of Senior Uncle Qi, to be honest, made Yu Nian feel confused, and the back of the free and easy swordsman couldn't help but emerge in his mind, so he boldly asked: "Is the Senior Uncle Qi mentioned by Senior Brother Fang just named Qi Nanhua?" ”

"Huh? Do you know him? The disciple who led the way was quite surprised to see that Yu Nian actually knew Qi Nanhua, and then explained: "The lineage of Chaoxia Mountain has gone through four generations since Zhang Zhangjiao, although Uncle Qi is young, but he is extremely high, he is the only seedling of the former ancestor of Chaoxia Mountain. ”

"Sifang Mountain is quite special, it is rumored that it has suffered a catastrophe in the past, and now among the patriarchs, in addition to the Changli ancestor of Xuannu Peak, there is another Pingqiu ancestor. In addition, some disciples, because of their outstanding qualifications, were taken to the mountains to study with the patriarch when they were young, and it happened that the master and uncle had not yet taken up the first position, so these disciples naturally inherited the mantle of the patriarch. And those of us who only started later, naturally we had to call them uncles. However, in recent years, there have been very few new disciples, so you are a real junior disciple here. ”

Although the young man had now entered Chaoxia Mountain, he was afraid that he would not have much close communication with other young disciples in the next few days, so he developed a delicate heart. Since the Azure Peak came down, observing the words and deeds of the disciples along the way, it seemed that it was easy to find the traces of many of the children of the family. Even though when he wandered among those small people in the market, he was already accustomed to the warmth and coldness of this world, but when he first came here, he inevitably had an open mind to ask for advice, "Senior brother, I don't know how many senior brothers there are on this Luoxia Mountain?" After the official entry tomorrow, I might as well go and meet them. ”

The disciple who led the way smiled and said: "Senior brother is really hearted, under the name Jiang Fang, I am the second apprentice under the master, and the junior brother can call me Senior Brother Jiang." At present, there are two disciples on Chaoxia Mountain who are not present, and the senior brother Pei Liangjun has already stepped into the rivers and lakes to explore a few years ago, accompanied by the third junior brother Fang Cheng'an, and the fourth junior brother Fang Chengzhi...... In his early years, he was seriously injured at the Jishan Festival, and his mobility was slightly inconvenient, so he used to recuperate in his residence with peace of mind; And the diligent and hard-working fifth disciple Qi Xiuyuan often practiced at home behind closed doors, and rarely showed his head outside. ”

After walking for a while, Jiang Fang led Yu Nian to the small courtyard on the right side and said, "That's it." "After all, Enron has to lead the rest of the year to it.

Yu Nian looked around this strange and long-term habitation, and the left and right sides of the tall green pines and swaying green bamboos stood respectively, clustering a quiet courtyard behind. The courtyard is paved with fine small stone pebbles, lined with green grass, and the night breeze blows, and the leaves and bamboo branches gently sway in the moonlight, exuding a faint aroma of grass, giving people a feeling of being away from the hustle and bustle, and feeling relaxed and happy. The main house in the courtyard is simple and simple, with no decorations other than the necessary tables, chairs and beds.

Jiang Fang smiled and said, "Today I have made a little rectification, so you can rest here for a while." Mountain life may be simple, but if there are any difficulties or discomforts, you can tell me. ”

Yu Nian bowed deeply to express his gratitude: "Thank you Senior Brother Jiang for your care. ”

Jiang Fang bowed slightly, looked around and said, "You have been tired for a day, you should rest early." ”

Yu Nian agreed, sent Jiang Fang to the door, and covered the door lightly. At that moment, he seemed to feel that the whole world was quiet, without the slightest noise of people. He silently walked to the bookcase, sat there stupidly and pondered for a long time, and found that there was really nothing to do, so he turned out the light, took off his coat and lay on the bed. It took a long time to toss and turn before finally falling asleep.

He didn't know how much time had passed, and his body suddenly shook, as if he had woken up from a dream.

He was silent on the bed for a long time, until his breathing became even and his eyes finally adjusted to the darkness. The window was slightly tilted, and a faint beam of moonlight swept through like a silver ribbon, reflecting the cold cyan masonry floor like a snow-capped scene.

After many years, he was not tired, so he got up and walked to the door, gently pushed open the wooden door and stepped outside.

There was silence all around, except for the occasional chirping of insects in a distant corner, which flowed intermittently like sympathetic whispers, and the moonlight fell gently on him like a clear spring.

The young man raised his head and stared at the night sky, only to see the sky full of stars shining brightly, the bright moon hanging high in it, just when he was intoxicated by the scenery of the bright moon of this thousand mountains and mountains, he was stunned to find that the sword placed in the corner of the home at this time actually flew to his side, as if "resolutely" standing there, the sword body was overflowing with mysterious brilliance, and was greedily absorbing the scattered moonlight.

Because of the ancient sword, Yu Nian's body was also immersed in the invisible moonlight attracted by it, not only the bright moon and clear light above his head; The young man clearly felt that the aura of heaven and earth that permeated the mountains and ravines on all sides seemed to be pulled by a force, and began to rotate and circulate, converging in one place, surging towards this unfathomable ancient sword!

The vast and boundless aura gathered in an instant, and its momentum was like the endless Yangtze River sea, flowing into the ancient sword around Yu Nian in a steady stream. After successfully absorbing the aura of the Endless Heaven and Earth, the ancient sword suddenly emitted a glittering light, and the sword body was covered with layers of rippling light, which was both dazzling and brilliant, making the young man who was watching attentively fall into surprise and confusion for a while, and he didn't know where to go for a while.

However, the phenomenon that made him even more shocking followed, and he was next to the ancient sword, and after receiving such a majestic baptism of aura, he found that his body had been nourished by aura. The feeling of comfort inspired from within cannot be described in words, and the feeling of cool aura invading the skin is also churning in the body, flowing naturally along the meridians of the body. In an instant, Yu Nian felt that the blood veins in his body were vigorously expanding, and his whole body was filled with endless power.

Yu Nian closed his eyes and immersed himself in this unprecedented sense of pleasure, unconsciously full of emotion, his face was filled with joyful smiles, and his mood reached an unprecedented peak of pleasure.

Since the first day he set foot on Sifang Mountain, he has harvested such a magical encounter, and the aura of heaven and earth cleanses the body and plays a role in dredging the meridians. If it can be maintained for a long time, I am afraid that the speed of cultivation in the future will be like a horse galloping, a thousand miles a day. If it really comes true, then the wish to realize the desire to control the flying sword for thousands of miles every day may no longer be just a fantasy.

After more than a year of excitement, his eyes widened, and his eyes flashed with bright light. It seemed that after absorbing the expensive Heaven and Earth Aura, his body began to undergo a subtle transformation, and his body was pregnant with a powerful energy that he had never possessed before, and his eyes were bright and radiant.

The young man who was leisurely and complacent suddenly thought of a question: "Will this wake up the other senior brothers and uncles from their slumber?" ”

This thought had just passed through his mind, as if to verify his speculation, and suddenly, under the reflection of the deep night of Chaoxia Mountain, a voice like a bell suddenly sounded on the verdant bamboo and cypress:

"Who's the driver? Why do you visit my Asakayama late at night......"

This sentence is thick and powerful, as if echoing in the sky above Chaoxia Mountain, like waves rippling between the peaks, for a long time.

"Oops, no! It's really a mess this time! It seems that my sword is really not suitable for hustle and bustle in the middle of the night! ”

At this moment, he inadvertently looked up at a black figure standing on the courtyard wall, although it was not tall and burly, but he could feel a steep and upright temperament, lonely and arrogant, awe-inspiring. Before they even got close, they already felt the pressure coming to their faces.

Yu Nian's vigilance rose instantly, so he took a few steps, looked at the past with the help of the bright moonlight, and finally saw the face of the man clearly-wearing a black robe, and the vicissitudes of his face revealed an indescribable arrogant temperament, which was the black-clothed old man he met on the top of Tianqing Mountain this morning.

Yu Nian's hanging heart was even more hanging, it turned out to be the predecessor of his own sect, he was still a newcomer here, but he was stunned why it was this black-robed old man who came to visit his remote residence in the dead of night.

When I thought that I was about to worship Zhang Xuanfu as a teacher, and that Zhang Xuanfu called Lao Dao a senior uncle, and Lao Dao called this person a senior brother, according to this seniority, wouldn't the seniors who came to the courtyard become my ancestors?

Yu Nian was shocked, hurriedly changed his attitude, and respectfully saluted and said: "The younger generation has seen the ancestor for more than one year!" ”

In the moonlight, the black-robed old man gently kicked the edge of the wall, and his leaping figure fell silently like a ghost, sitting firmly in the middle of the courtyard. The deep gaze is as sharp as a blade, as if it wants to go straight to the secret of the soul of Yu Nian.

Yu Nian felt that the other party's gaze was as sharp as a sword, and his body couldn't help but tremble, and this feeling of being easily understood made him feel like he was on pins and needles, like a man's back. At this moment, it is like having nothing to hide in front of the black-robed old man, like a fish in the throat, like sitting on pins and needles.

Perhaps noticing Yu Nian's panic, the black-robed old man retracted his gaze, and finally said with a little ease: "It turned out to be you?" ”
