"The hero is sad to pass the beauty pass, it seems that even you Li Qixian can't escape......" Zhou Ping said with a smile.

"Beauty? Hahaha! At that time, she was not a beauty, she was almost an ugly girl. Li Qixian's nose seemed to be a little sour when he said this, and he took a deep breath and continued to tell his story.

"I haven't seen Xiaoman for a whole year, I really thought that I would never see her in my life, although I successfully won the first place in the Chang'an Immortal Academy, but I still can't be happy. Just when I was extremely melancholy, everything seemed to be arranged, and the fates of the two of us were intertwined again. ”

"The next time we met was at a minister's dinner, and I was invited to the first seat because I had won the first place that day, and from the moment I sat on the first seat, I felt her gaze, and she had been chasing me for so many years, and I was all too familiar with that feeling. But I looked around the audience and never saw her, until my eyes finally fell on a subordinate. ”

I walked up to her, but her face had become unrecognizable, and I asked her if she was Xiaoman, and she replied that she was not, but how could she not?

I picked her up and left the banquet, all the way to Qingliang Mountain, when I was with the keeper of Qingliang Mountain because of the chess game, was already acquainted, just like that, under my constant questioning, she admitted her identity, and what made me even more unbelievable was that in fact, she had come to Chang'an City more than half a year ago. ”

Li Qixian's face was still as usual, as if he was not telling his past, but the story in the book.

"At that time, although she came to Chang'an City, but her face began to fester, her originally beautiful face appeared in just one or two months There were countless scar-like traces, because of these scars, this girl who had chased me for most of the Tang Dynasty began to become inferior, she didn't dare to see me again, and she didn't want the people of Chang'an City to know that the immortal who was in Chang'an City had such an ugly wife......"

"But even so, she still didn't want to stay away from me, in order to be able to see me often, she found a job in the minister's house, and continued to live in Chang'an City, and she did all this just to be able to see me a few more times......

"When I learned this, I was stupid, I was so sorry for someone for the first time in my life, and it wasn't until that time that I really understood that I had fallen in love with her, and no matter what she became, she was destined to be my wife Li Qixian......"

"She has chased me all my life, and all I can do is to never abandon her in the days to come, only in this way can I be worthy of her deep affection......"

Speaking of this, Li Qixian took a deep breath, obviously his heart was not as calm as it seemed.

"So, when you left Chang'an City in the middle of the Immortal Academy's big test, it was for Xiaoman?" Zhou Ping asked with a smile, "Don't you know, after you left, there were different opinions in Chang'an City, some said that you reached an agreement with the royal family, and some said that you went to pursue the Supreme Sword Dao, hahaha!"

"What I seek is a hundred times more precious than what they say. Li Qixian said with a smile.

"And after that, where did you go?" Zhou Ping continued.

Li Qixian looked into the distance with deep eyes, and said softly, "In those years, we traveled the world together, visited the famous mountains and rivers all over the world together, and met all kinds of people...... It was really my happiest time. ”

"But it was in those years that Xiaoman's strange illness became more and more serious, and I visited famous doctors all over the world and never found a way to save her, her body was declining day by day, not only on her face, but also on her skin and internal organs, all covered with scars, in order to maintain Xiaoman's life, I began to use Xuan Qi to renew her life a long time ago, and the last time I returned to Chang'an City to foresee you, in fact, she was close to running out of oil and the lamp was dry......"

"You already knew that Sister Xiaoman was leaving, so you gave me this sword named after her, didn't you?"

Li Qixian nodded slowly, and said with a smile, "Actually, this is also what Xiaoman means, she likes you very much, she often tells me that if I could have 1/10,000 of your affection back then, she wouldn't have been so bitter in those years......"

"There's nothing to say about the rest of the matter, one day when we traveled to the Western Desert, she finally left me, and in this courtyard, she died in my arms. ”

"Before leaving, Xiaoman didn't say anything to me, thinking that after so many years, everything she wanted to say should have been finished to me, perhaps, it is also a kind of happiness for her to die without regrets......"

After saying this, Li Qixian looked at the tomb under the banana tree with soft eyes, a pair of eyes, a tomb, and a courtyard of plantains, it is a lifetime......

Now Zhou Ping understands what Li Qixian said to him at the beginning, the love between the two of them is not as vigorous as others imagined, maybe in the eyes of the world, this peerless sword immortal should have a magnificent love in the past, but in Li Qixian's opinion, this plain feeling is the most cherished thing in his life, even the sword in his hand is far from being comparable.

He doesn't care if it's called a story, but calls it life, because stories are told to people, but the road of life is to be walked by himself, for Li Qixian, Xiaoman has become an indispensable part of his life, the plantain she loves to see, and the haggis soup she loves to eat...... These things she loves will be deeply imprinted in Li Qixian's life, and accompany him through the rest of his life without her.

Zhou Ping was silent for a long time, and slowly handed the sword in his hand to Li Qixian, "I'll give you back this sword, with this sword, Xiaoman can always be by your side." ”

Li Qixian smiled, he did not refuse, but took the sword, and then got up and stood in the center of the courtyard, slowly getting up.

Li Qixian's sword momentum is different from all the sword postures that Zhou Ping has ever seen, his sword momentum is natural, and every sword trembles with boundless sword intent, Zhou Ping even feels that it is not Li Qixian who is dancing the sword, but the sword path between heaven and earth is dancing by itself!

His sword is getting faster and faster, so fast that Zhou Ping's eyes can only barely keep up, the sword aura is boundless, and the killing machine is gone, which makes Zhou Ping's heart surge!

But after killing the sword, Li Qixian's sword suddenly slowed down, this time the speed of his sword swing is not Zhou Ping, even a three-year-old child can see it clearly, but Zhou Ping is even more shocked by this, because at this time, Li Qixian is no longer dancing with a sword, but a way!

One pick and one stab, one pluck and one block, from Li Qixian's sword, Zhou Ping felt an extremely familiar aura, he actually felt the breath of the regular formation in Li Qixian's sword path!

In Zhou Ping's confused eyes, Li Qixian finally stabbed out the last sword, this sword contains the sword path of Li Qixian's life, but this sword does not have any killing intent at all, but is full of peace.

The sword was collected, and Li Qixian sent the sword back to Zhou Ping again, and pulled Zhou Ping back to reality with a gentle word.

"That's all for my sword, the next world, it's time to see your Zhou Ping's sword. ”

Zhou Ping took Xiao Man with a reverent face, holding the warm hilt of the sword, Zhou Ping's brain was blank, and now he had only one thought in his heart, could it be that Li Qixian had also seen the rule formation diagram before?

When he heard Zhou Ping's question, Li Qixian was stunned for a moment, and then slowly shook his head and said, "I haven't seen the formation you said, every move and every style that was just shown in front of you was realized by myself." ”

"It's all your own realization......" Zhou Ping suddenly became chattering at this time, he stared intently at the small full sword in his hand, and his mind exploded.

"Dao! Sword Dao, Yin Yang Dao, Five Elements Dao, Seven Star Dao, Eight Phase Dao...... Everything comes from the rules, thousands of avenues, different paths to the same end......"

Zhou Ping slowly raised his head and looked at the sky, and a gaze that shocked the heavens and the earth went straight to Yunxiao, and even the immortal in green clothes was taken aback.

"I understand! I understand everything!" Zhou Ping laughed a little maniacally, "Li Chengyuan, Li Chengyuan! There is no way to join the Tao in this world! The Tao is one, why do you need to join the Tao!"

"Going the wrong way...... It's all the wrong way!!"

Although he didn't know what Zhou Ping had an epiphany, Li Qixian was still happy when he saw Zhou Ping's crazy look, because he knew that Zhou Ping could understand his sword, or rather, only Zhou Ping could understand his sword in this world!

Although the sword idiot who calls himself a sword is strong, and his swordsmanship and sword strength are almost the same as his own, he is too much in pursuit of the form of a sword, and a person like him may be able to become the top swordsman in the world, but he will never be able to touch the true way of the sword!

The Tao is not a trick, not a strength, not any means of opposing the enemy, it is the road that thousands of people step out, and tens of millions of people step out of the Tao, and divide into thousands of branches, but no one has ever thought that the end of these roads is still the most primitive and basic way!

All people, all the Taos, will end up on the same path! And in the end, what they are pursuing is actually the most primordial rule in the world, the most primordial Dao.

Tang Shenghuang Li Chengyuan thought of this direction, but he got it wrong, he tried in vain to forcibly integrate all the paths he had walked to achieve the ultimate path, but he didn't know, the more he did this, the farther away the real Tao would be! He never thought that all the roads he had walked were actually on a great avenue, and the end point of this simplest avenue was the most fundamental thing in this world, and Tang Shenghuang made the road more and more complicated, of course, deviating from the final essence.

"Did this kid realize something?" the fairy in Tsing Yi patted his chest with trepidation, "How do I feel as if he was almost about to find me just now?"

Even he didn't expect that Zhou Ping would comprehend the essence of the Tao at this stage, but for Zhou Ping, this was not enough, he had only walked through three of the four roads between heaven and earth now, and if he wanted to pursue the true origin of the Dao, he had to go through all these roads, and they all came to an end!

After clarifying this, Zhou Ping was completely enlightened, and he began to rehearse Li Qixian's last few swords over and over again, this was the closest he was to the Great Dao, and he did not take a shortcut through the regular formation diagram, but really relied on his own sword to approach the Dao.

"Your Highness, he ...... It shouldn't be okay, right?" asked Yun Xiao with some concern.

Li Qixian smiled slightly, and replied, "No, even if there is something, it will only be a good thing, and when he really realizes it, my position as the leader of the kendo should also be given up for him, hehe......"

In the next half month, Zhou Ping has been immersed in those swords, he does not eat or drink, and he studies without sleep, but every time he is a little bit behind, just a little bit away from the real sword.

Finally, after Zhou Ping had been crazy for half a month, Li Qixian stopped him.

"If you practice like this, it won't come to fruition. Li Qixian said to Zhou Ping earnestly, "Although you know how to go on this road, have you ever thought that the road is not made in a day, just like you know the way to Chang'an City now, but it always takes time for you to go to Chang'an City from here, do you understand what I mean?"

"You mean, I know what kendo is, but my sword is too weak, and it still needs to be precipitated?" Zhou Ping asked with a frown.

"That's right. Li Qixian nodded and said, "That's it, since you want to practice so much, then I'll recommend you a practitioner, but you have to think about it, this guy is not a good stubble, if you can't reach the level he is satisfied with, he will really kill people!"

The existence that can be so valued by Li Qixian is definitely not an ordinary person, but ordinary people are not qualified to be Zhou Ping's sparring partner.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhou Ping still decided to follow Li Qixian's method, find someone to feed his sword first, and then try the final sword path when the sword is fed.

The next day, Zhou Ping took Yun Xiao and followed Li Si to the depths of the desert, where the yellow sand was everywhere, no matter how it looked, it didn't look like it was inhabited.

"Sword, I'll bring you an interesting guy, won't you come out and meet him?"

Li Qixian shouted into the yellow sand in front of him, but Zhou Ping activated his spiritual sense to the extreme and didn't find anyone, just when he was puzzled, a man covered in scars actually crawled out of the yellow sand not far away with a sword.

The corners of Zhou Ping's mouth trembled a little as he looked at the strange man in front of him, and asked boldly, "This brother, what kind of fetish are you?"

Jian didn't pay attention to Zhou Ping, but looked at Li Qixian with sharp eyes, and asked in a deep voice, "Do you want to try again?"

Li Qixian smiled and waved his hand, pointing at Zhou Ping and said, "This kid has obtained the true inheritance of my sword, and now he is only a little bit of tempering, I want you to feed him the sword and help him comprehend the ultimate way." ”
