Chapter Forty-Eight: Little Snow

With Li Bad's exit with the word "go", the blood-red red light that rushed from the north direction, the rampage, seemed to have the backbone in an instant, and the sound of the sword sounded, flashing in front of Li Bad, it was the red sword on the stone tablet at the gate of the city.

Directly in front of Li Bad, the group of 'evil ghosts' with hideous faces and cloaked hair, after the sword that suddenly appeared back then and had been guarded on the stele for more than ten years appeared, although they all showed frightened looks, but their bodies did not stop at all, but rushed towards Li Bad more quickly.

And the sword glowing with red light, the red light on his body instantly rose, and in the dark street, like a blood-red bright moon, it was particularly eye-catching, and the murderous aura suddenly appeared, rushing head-on in front of Li Bad.

In a flash.

In just an instant, that strange and terrifying scene was pierced by this sword, turned into a wisp of green smoke, and dissipated without a trace, but the blood-red sword was castrated, but with a terrible scream, with unwillingness, anger, and a trace of remorse, all the way along the street, rushing to the south of the city.

As this sword light disappeared into the darkness, on the street where there were still a hundred ghosts just now, a somewhat abrupt figure stood among them, slowly walking towards Li Bad.

Li Bad looked at this somewhat strange figure, his face was thoughtful, and he didn't make a sound, but quietly waited for this figure to slowly walk in front of him, until he approached him, and he saw that it was an old man with gray hair and a black cane in his hand, showing an old appearance.

The old man stopped, his rickety figure bent down slightly, and said, "You are the little prince of the Li family?"

Looking at this old man who was so rare that he looked at it carefully, his whole body was in a black robe, and his face revealed a trace of murderous aura, but he looked a little charitable, Li Bad looked at this strange old man suspiciously, thinking of the scene where a hundred ghosts appeared just now, he didn't dare to relax at all, and asked in a low voice: "Are you a human or a ghost?"

When the old man heard Li Bad's inquiry, he smiled and said, "Why do I look like that 'hundred ghosts' just now?"

When Li Bad heard this answer, he breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he was a human being, just the group of things just now, it is better to deal with less or less, and he can't cope with it himself, so he smiled and said: "You don't look like it, but you deal with those things, I think you can drive those things, it must be a little more dangerous than those things." ”

When the old man heard this, he smiled again and said, "You think I drove those things?"

Hearing this rhetorical question, Li Gang suddenly frowned, looked at the old man suspiciously, and seemed to say, who can you be?

The old man who came out of the strange scene saw Li Bad's expression, and he didn't refute it, but pointed to his feet and said, "Do you know who gave that sword back then?"

Li Bad shook his head, frowned and nodded, the old man looked at Li Bad's response that he knew but didn't know, and said, "Do you know or don't know?"

Li Bad thought about it, hesitated for a while, and then shook his head.

"That's not what I know?" The old man's eyes, which were already narrowed, swept Li Bad slightly, and the crutches in his hand slightly clubbed the ground, and said, "This sword is called Xiaoxue, it doesn't sound like a good match, right?"

Li Bad nodded in surprise when he heard this, but what was even more surprised was this sword named Xiaoxue, a famous sword from thirty years ago.

When the Nanyue Sword Pavilion was cast, there was a saying in the world that 'the world's famous sword is half out of the Sword Pavilion', but all the swordsmen who were a little famous at that time had the luxury of hoping to invite the Sword Pavilion to create a sword for it, but the Sword Pavilion only cast a few swords every year, and only the sword leader of the year, the Sword Pavilion would shoot, and it was not necessary.

And this sword named 'Xiaoxue' is different from those swords that 'see the person first, and then forge the sword', the Sword Pavilion has a rule when it is opened, and every ten years, the Sword Pavilion will be closed for a year.

Until a year later, the Sword Pavilion will bring a sword that has been built by the entire Sword Pavilion Sword Casting Master for a year, and reopen the Pavilion to cast the sword, and this sword will follow a sword casting master of the Sword Pavilion to enter the rivers and lakes to find the sword master, so the sword that comes out in this decade is 'cast the sword first, and then see the people'. The name of the sword is taken from the twenty-four solar terms of the year, and is selected by the sword-casting master who brings the sword out of the pavilion, knowing that all the twenty-four famous swords are baked, the sword pavilion will be closed and the sword will no longer be cast.

This is also the origin of this 'Xiaoxue', but it is rumored that the casting master who carried this famous sword out of the pavilion to find the master disappeared without a trace soon after entering the rivers and lakes, and even the sword did not fall half a point, and the Sword Pavilion rarely did not ask, as if the Sword Pavilion did not have a sword born back then. Although the Sword Pavilion only casts swords, and there is no swordsmanship, or a kendo genius is born, but thirty years ago, in that glorious era when kendo was overwhelming, it can be said that if there was a martial arts list released that year, then four out of ten would be kendo masters.

It wasn't until the decline of kendo that the sword pavilion became worse than before, and since this 'little snow' came out, no sword has been born.

It's just that this 'little snow' that was only opened once in ten years in the Sword Pavilion should be snow-white all over, without a trace of variegation on the whole body, why do you see it now, but it is red all over and full of blood?

Before Li Bad could ask, the old man seemed to know his doubts, and said: "After this famous sword came out of the pavilion, in fact, the sword owner has not been found, and the world thinks that the famous sword of the Sword Pavilion that comes out every ten years is the sword master designated by the sword casting master who entered the rivers and lakes that year, but in fact, it is not, but the sword leads the people out of the pavilion to find the sword master, but this is ' Xiaoxue took the master all the way to the north, until he reached the capital of the Northern Qi Dynasty, he had no intention of looking for the master, and in desperation, he could only go all the way south, and then found the sword master in Difu Mountain, do you know who it is?"

When Li Gang heard this, he nodded and said, "It's King Shouyun of Wudang who is in charge." ”

The old man smiled, pointed at Li Bad, and said: "Back then, he was not in charge, but a Taoist priest in Wudang Mountain who entered the world to practice, and he didn't actually have the intention of being the master of this sword back then, but wanted to give this sword to a person. The old man said this, as if he remembered something funny, and immediately laughed out loud.

Li Bad was just puzzled, and then laughed out loud, this sword will be chosen, I can't find it all the way north, and when I go back, I chose a Taoist priest, and this Taoist priest is even more wonderful, he was selected by this sword, but he wants to give the sword away, and he wants to come and match it.

The killing sword doesn't want to kill, and the famous sword master doesn't want the famous sword.
