Xu Qing was full of joy and said: "Very good, very good, but Lord Lu Guan and I are the same way, and I will not fight with her, but in the future, there will be no more disputes in the Jianghu court, or I can have leisure and elegance to find her to learn." According to Mr. So, I can also have a long time with my master. ”

Zhao Sheng said: "Of course." ”

Xu Qing immediately knelt down and bowed: "Master is above, please accept the apprentice's worship." ”

Zhao Sheng hurriedly helped Xu Qing up, but Xu Qing was reluctant to get up, Zhao Sheng hurriedly said: "Your Highness is really tormenting the old minister, please get up quickly, otherwise the first emperor will blame me." ”

Xu Qing said: "In the next place, I am reckless, in front of Mr., Mr. only treats me as a disciple, don't care about the way of the monarch and minister, Mr. will teach me the exercises that have been hard for 20 years, how can I not be my master, don't shirk, please accept the disciple's worship." ”

Zhao Sheng saw Xu Qing so earnest, with tears in his eyes, he seemed to have returned to the beginning, the first emperor begged for martial arts, asked himself to go out of the mountain to help, knelt on the ground and kowtowed, there was no king's frame at all, and today's Royal Highness is just like the first emperor of the year.

Zhao Sheng squatted down and helped Xu Qing up, and said, "The old minister is really not mistaken, His Highness will be a big weapon in the future." ”

Xu Qing said: "Master, aren't you afraid that your disciples will deceive you? If I agree on the surface, but in fact I just covet the secret books of the exercises, and after practicing the divine skills, I will leave what the master told the disciples behind, what should the master do?"

Zhao Sheng said with a smile: "Since the old minister has found His Royal Highness, even if His Royal Highness is unwilling to obey the old minister's order, the old minister will also teach this exercise sword to His Royal Highness, one His Royal Highness is the son of the first emperor, the old minister has the responsibility of protecting the lord, teaching His Royal Highness the divine skills, but also hoping that His Royal Highness can protect himself, not from traitors, the coming day is long, the wind and clouds are changing, there are divine skills to protect the body, at least the old minister can protect the phoenix body from injury, the second is the old minister to practice, if this twilight spirit heart sutra can not be passed on to the best generation, so that the magic will be passed on to future generations, after a hundred years, the old minister is not in the ground. ”

Xu Qing had mixed feelings, bowed down again, and said: "Master rest assured, Xu Qing will definitely live up to Master's high expectations, and vow to put the people of the world first, and the exercises of this body will not be in vain, and the disciples will definitely make it useful." ”

Zhao Sheng was quite pleased, and Xu Qing went down the mountain to the house, Zhao Sheng opened the house to welcome Xu Qing into the door, went to the back room to prepare a meal, about half an hour, put a few home-cooked dishes on the wooden table, the two of them threw food and vegetables, during which Xu Qing asked Zhao Sheng, what kind of person his father was during his lifetime.

Zhao Sheng told the old things one by one, and Xu Qing smiled and said: "Master, you said that my father was quite timid back then, what kind of cowardice was he, did he only be a shrinking turtle when he met an enemy?"

Zhao Sheng said: "That's naturally not, but brave and abnormal, the first emperor was just and crowned, after inviting the old minister down the mountain, he encountered a big war, when he happened to meet the Hachi tribe sneaking over from the northwest, was about to go straight to Kyoto, but was bumped into by the first emperor, at that time the old minister went down the mountain for the first time, never saw such a big scene, your master had long wanted to pat his ass and escape, but was dragged back by me, I and he had just been recruited by the first emperor, and when something happened, he had to shout and run away, which was really against the prestige of the first master, but at that time your master said softly:" Senior brother, you don't have these to trick me, obviously you insisted on pulling me to join the army, I don't care about the face of the master and his old man, I don't care, I'm leaving. ”

Fortunately, the first emperor went to the front to spy on the military situation at that time, otherwise when he heard this, he was afraid that he would have sent the old minister and your master back to the mountain. ”

Xu Qing smiled: "It turns out that my master is so afraid of death, no, master, don't you want to say how bold my father is?

Zhao Sheng said: "Your Highness, don't worry, and listen to the old minister's detailed talk, at that time, the first emperor spied on the military situation and found that there were more than 200,000 Hachi troops in a steady stream, and there were only less than 30,000 soldiers in his own family. He could not let his plot succeed, so he had to stop it no matter what he said, so that he could not move forward.

At that time, the first emperor was young and vigorous, and he planned on the spot to send a vanguard to disrupt the enemy, and then led the army to attack the enemy's midquarter, so that he could not take care of each other, but the first emperor forgot to stop in time. The vanguard was trapped in the enemy, and the first emperor led the army to rush downhill, and the enemy army was in chaos, but he reacted in a moment, and at that time the first emperor had penetrated into the enemy's belly, and was counterattacked by the enemy, and was defeated. The first time your master saw such a formation, he used his housekeeping skills and lost his swordsmanship, he thought that this Ha Chi army must be ferocious, but he didn't expect to be injured after half a round under his sword.

However, the old minister and your master have never killed anyone, but they are a little panicked, but they can see that the Hachi army is extremely brutal and merciless to their own soldiers.

But seeing that the first emperor was trembling and hesitant, the old minister asked him why, and the first emperor hurriedly told him, saying that he could not see the blood, so he would be dizzy. At that time, the old minister secretly thought that the first emperor was so self-sufficient, a scholar prince, full of wealth, could not see the sword and sword, and the blood was all over the ground, why should he lead thousands of soldiers.

At that time, it was the first emperor to lead the army, and the first emperor was behind the army, and he was also the first to be attacked by the army at that time. ”

Zhao Sheng lifted the tea cup next to the wooden bowl and drank hot tea to moisten his throat, Xu Qing couldn't help but ask, "What happened later, what happened later?"

Zhao Sheng said: "Later, the first emperor fainted, and the old minister and your master plus the less than 3,000 Celin army fought desperately to fight a bloody way, and finally kept a little foundation of the Celin army, and the first emperor also escaped."

However, although the first emperor said that he was reckless, he also sent the news of Hachi's attack to the emperor to the northern capital.

The northern capital was prepared, the Hachi army came to the city, but could not get the slightest benefit, knowing that the opportunity was lost, had to withdraw the army and turn back, although the battle suffered heavy casualties, but kept the imperial capital from being disturbed, the first emperor was also praised by the emperor, and the bounty was awarded to the general.

However, before that, the old minister and your master took the first emperor to Zangyingfeng, hiding from Hachi's chasing soldiers for a long time, the first emperor had a high fever, and it was difficult to eat for several days. ”

Xu Qing said with a smile: "It seems that my father is really difficult to support, presumably he was a fledgling at that time, and he didn't know martial arts, so he suffered a lot when he encountered the enemy." ”

Zhao Sheng said: "The first emperor really didn't know martial arts, and he didn't even know anything about ordinary guns and sticks, he only loved to read and fill in the fu, poetry, painting, books and pianos, all of which were known." But he boasted of his talents, better than Nanyang Zhuge and Guan Zhong, often holding a feather fan and pretending, which caused the scholars in the capital to laugh for March. ”

Xu Qingqu said: "My father is so incompetent, it seems that if it weren't for the assistance of the master and the master, it would be difficult for the father to achieve great things." ”

Zhao Sheng said: "Your Highness, you can misinterpret the meaning of the old minister, if there was no plan of the first emperor, today, it has long been occupied by the Hachi military clan, and the name of the Great Liang country will no longer exist."

Although the first emperor said that he did not know any martial arts, he humbly asked for advice and knelt down to ask the old minister to go down the mountain, but the first emperor was not good at learning martial arts, and after studying for a month, he had to abandon martial arts and not practice.

The old minister thought that the first emperor was difficult to become a great weapon, and he didn't know why the first master asked the old minister to assist the first emperor.

And the dragon body was sick, but unexpectedly blocked the invasion of the Hachi army, and made great contributions, the Emperor Taishang handed over the Celin army to the jurisdiction of the first emperor, and at that time there were other Changning Army, Protector Army, Beiliang Army and other armies were led by several outstanding princes.

However, the first emperor did have a world-shattering talent, and in the later battles, although the first emperor did not go into battle in person, it was properly deployed, and he would always be invincible. ”

Xu Qing listened carefully, and was fascinated for a while, immersed in it and couldn't extricate himself.

Xu Qing said: "Master, Lord Lu Guan, will they be anxious if they can't find the apprentice?"

Zhao Sheng said: "Your Highness don't worry, it's just that it won't be okay if you disappear for half a day, according to the old minister's foresight, your master has a plot, waiting for Your Highness is the Longtan Abyss, Your Highness should be careful, but the most important thing now is to quickly write down the mental mantra on the Twilight Soul Heart Sutra." ”

Xu Qing understood, the two of them returned to the quiet cliff, they all sat down to read the book, Xu Qing silently read the dense words on the scriptures, not as obscure as when they first read it before, but the more they looked at it, the more transparent it became, plus Zhao Sheng's side knock, Xu Qing's understanding was particularly good, and he had already understood a lot in three hours, and the night was long.

Ordinary scholars read at night, and there is always a time to sleep on the table, but Xu Qing is very interested, Zhao Sheng is worried, secretly thinking that although Xu Qing is full of poetry and books, but in the face of the Twilight Spirit Heart Sutra that he has first contacted, he must be a little too busy to take care of.

Unexpectedly, Xu Qing will be able to understand the mind, and he will be familiar with it in less than half the night, and he will explain the Heart Sutra oral method, but he doesn't need to ask again, he understands it thoroughly, and the time has come, Xu Qing closed his eyes and meditated, his mind was full of 10,000 words Heart Sutra, and the essentials of the twilight spirit exercise have been fully mastered.

It is not difficult to consolidate on his own, Xu Qing opened his eyes and exhaled, and Zhao Sheng said happily: "Congratulations to Your Highness for going further, the next step is the Fallen Divine Sword." ”

Xu Qingbai looked at Zhao Sheng and said, "Master won't let the apprentice rest for a while?" Zhao Sheng smiled: "Your Highness rest, the old minister will go and pick up some water to quench His Highness's thirst." Xu Qing hurriedly said: "How can you bother Master, it's better to go in vain." Zhao Sheng said: "In this case, Your Highness might as well go with the old minister?"

Xu Qing nodded in agreement, and the two walked down the cliff slope and walked to the forest, Xu Qing said: "Where does the master get water?" Zhao Sheng said: "There is naturally no water in the forest, and there is a stream and waterfall outside the forest on the right." Xu Qing said: "Really, why can't you hear the sound of the water?" Zhao Sheng said: "This small waterfall is strangely tight, gushing down, it is as slow as this, the thin water flows for a long time, there is no trace of waves, no matter day and night, the cicadas and birds in the forest are singing, which naturally covers the whispering of the water flow, His Royal Highness does not hear it, but it is constant." ”

Xu Qing was shocked: "It's like this, it's hard to hear, Master hurry up." ”

Zhao Sheng quickened his pace, knowing that he could not delay, there was still a book of fallen sword books that had not been read in detail, and tonight was already more than halfway through, although this sword book was not as astringent as the Twilight Spirit Heart Sutra, but it was more verbose, there were hundreds of thousands of words, and it was difficult to swallow it all in a moment. However, seeing that Xu Qing's talent is wonderful, presumably the latter sword book can also be overcome, although he is confident, but he also needs to start the record quickly, not to take it lightly, at this time the two have stopped in front of the small waterfall, Xu Qing squatted and reached out to the stream to scoop water and send it to the mouth, and suddenly felt sweet.

Zhao Sheng also used a little water, the two returned to the quiet cliff, Zhao Sheng took out the sword spectrum in his arms, Xu Qing took it and took a closer look, although he could roughly understand the one move in the spectrum, and the explanation was clear, but it was even more difficult to learn the sword move, at first Xu Qing had expected it, and Zhao Sheng asked him to practice a few moves first. Xu Qing learned one move after another according to the sword book, but the bull's head was not the horse's mouth, and if the moves in the sword formation were practiced in sections, it was not difficult to learn, but it was very difficult to practice coherently.

Xu Qing's long sword was in his hand, and after a few moves, he was already disheartened.
