I couldn't sleep all night, and the next day Dugu Zhishui got up early. He first breathed at the lake for a while at dawn, and then set off to pick wild fruits for Ziqian. During this period, he went back to the village and gave the pill to Lao Dugubo.

The effect was obvious, Lao Dugu Bo immediately felt a lot more energetic after taking the pill, and the wrinkles on his face were much less. Old Dugu Bo was surprised at that time, he naturally asked Dugu Zhishui where he got the elixir, and finally Dugu Zhishui was fooled.

When Dugu Zhishui left the house, old Dugu Bo sat at the door, smiling and watching his back gradually disappear from sight.

Second Master Zhang took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Sure enough, he is a good boy, and his daughter-in-law still can't forget your grandfather when she comes." ”

"That's," old Dugu Bo's face bloomed with joy, "my grandson is filial." After a while, the smile on his face faded, and he muttered, "It would be nice if we could keep doing this......

......

Dugu Zhishui waited outside the door of Ziqian's room for a while and Ziqian came out of the room, but she ignored him, as if ignoring him. He put it on his face and said with a wry smile: "If you are still angry, you can beat me, but can you ignore me, this makes me more uncomfortable than beating me." ”

Ziqian glanced at him, the corners of her mouth curled slightly, "Then you will continue to feel uncomfortable." After saying that, she snatched her breakfast directly from Dugu Zhishui's hand, leaving only his back.

Dugu Zhishui wailed and followed Ziqian out of the island in the middle of the lake, but he already understood that Ziqian was not so angry anymore, and he could still be saved.

Along the way, Dugu Zhishui chattered in Ziqian's ear, and finally Ziqian couldn't stand it anymore, she pointed to Dugu Zhishui's nose and said, "You really want me to forgive you?"

Dugu Zhishui nodded hurriedly.

"Then you must listen to me in the future, I let you go east, you are not allowed to go west, you have to do whatever I ask you to do, and you are not allowed to talk about conditions. I'll forgive you if you say yes. Ziqian's big eyes flashed with a glint of wisdom.

"Haven't I always been like this......" Dugu Zhishui muttered quietly.

"What did you say?"

"I didn't ...... Didn't say anything, I agreed. Dugu Zhishui swore and said.

......

The two of them soon came to the cave on the holy mountain, knocked lightly on the stone door a few times, and the stone door slowly opened. At this time, Han Liyan was looking at the two of them with a smile on his face.

"Today I will start instructing you in your cultivation, have you ever been ready?"

"Master, we can't wait. I have already told my grandfather that I will practice with Ziqian for a period of time, and I will not go back for the time being. Dugu Zhishui shouted, but as soon as he finished speaking, he felt a pain in his feet, and Ziqian didn't know when he had already stood by his side, "Who is with you?"

The smile in Han Liyan's eyes became stronger, but he quickly restrained it. "What do you want to learn?"

"Master, I want to learn swordsmanship. Zi Qian said softly.

Dugu Zhishui thought about it for a while, and then said, "Master, so am I." In fact, he didn't have any concept of these things, he learned the sword because he had seen Han Liyan's sword, and he guessed in his heart that Han Liyan must be a master of swordsmanship, since he wanted to learn it, of course he had to learn the best.

Han Liyan nodded slightly, but shook his head again. "The sword, light and flexible, can be split, can be flirted, can be sharpened, can be intercepted, can be stabbed, is a very common weapon, but it is also an extremely difficult weapon to practice, although there are many people who use the sword, but the people who really understand the sword are as rare as a few people, and it is even more difficult to practice the sword to the realm. Everyone has their own weapons, and you need to find out what you are suitable for, and since you want to learn the sword before that, then I will teach you. After speaking, Han Liyan waved his hand, Ziqian and Dugu Zhishui felt that their eyes were dark, and when they came back to their senses, they didn't know where they were.

In front of him was a mountain peak with no top in sight, and a waterfall poured down from an unknown place, bringing a huge roar that shook Dugu and made him dizzy. Under the waterfall is a deep pool, the water is extremely cold, and you can see that the cold air is constantly rising.

Dugu Zhishui looked at everything around him curiously, and asked puzzledly, "Master, where is this?"

"Outside the Pure Land," Han Liyan said lightly.

"Huh, why are we going outside?"

"Survival" Han Liyan showed a strange smile at the corner of his mouth, and Dugu Zhishui suddenly had a bad premonition.

"Survival?" Dugu shuddered. "Master, are you ...... What do you mean?"

"The area around this waterfall has been banned by me, I have put some demon beasts in this area, their strength is not higher than the realm of the Martial Sect, you will live here in the future, so it is very important for you to learn to survive. There will be no danger within a radius of thousands of feet around this waterfall, and you will cultivate in this area in the future, but I will give you some tasks from time to time, whether it is hunting demon beasts, or looking for heavenly treasures, you must complete them on time. Han Liyan said.

"Master, if our lives are in danger, will you take action?" asked Dugu Zhishui.

"I won't strike unless you have only one breath left, so don't expect me to save you in danger, it's all up to you. ”

Although Dugu Zhishui was a little mentally prepared, he was still a little dazed in his heart. Han Liyan looked at the deep pool in front of him and continued: "The sword has high requirements for the balance and body technique of the person who uses the sword, so you must first lay a good foundation and start practicing from the most basic body balance. The words fell, his palm rotated slightly, and a few leaves slowly floated around his palm as if they had been pulled by some kind of traction, and he suddenly clenched his fist, and those leaves instantly cut through the air, leaving a few black marks as thin as hair.

Dugu Zhishui and Ziqian both looked at this scene dumbfounded, and their hearts were extremely shocked. Han Liyan slashed a few palms into the air towards the trees, and the thick ancient trees were cut into dozens like tofu, each of which was a zhang long. Then he beckoned slightly, and the dozens of pieces of wood were thrown into the water with a thud.

"Now at the beginning, all you have to do is be able to stand on a log. ”

"What's so hard about this, isn't it just standing on that log? It's like riding a boat. Master, let's move on to the next step. Dugu Zhishui looked at the wood floating quietly in the water and said, Ziqian looked at it, and also looked at Han Liyan with some puzzlement. When the strength reaches the realm of martial arts, you can release the aura, not to mention standing firm on the wood, even if you can barely do it.

Han Liyan shook his head, "You are not allowed to use spiritual power, you only rely on your own balance ability to stand firm." He leaped forward, and a piece of wood stood up, and he stood firmly on the top of the log, and the piece of wood did not move.
