Chapter 2: Sword Practice
Two months have passed in a flash, Shangguan Lin's family of three spent in happiness, today's weather is exceptionally sunny, Shangguan Lin accompanied Situ Yun to come out to relax, listening to the cheerful calls of birds in the bamboo forest, so Shangguan Lin said: "I haven't practiced swords for a long time, and I feel that my body and bones are about to ossify." ”
"Brother Lin, practice if you want, I haven't seen you practice swords for a long time, and I also want to see what realm your swordsmanship has reached. Situ Yun said.
"Sister Yun. But there is no sword, how to practice, I forgot to bring a sword when I came out. Shangguan Lin said a little helplessly.
"Brother Lin, it's okay, you can use bamboo branches instead. Situ Yun said.
"Yes, you see how stupid I am, bamboo branches can also be used as swords. Shangguan Lin suddenly said enlightenedly. After speaking, he took a bamboo branch and prepared to start dancing the sword. Situ Yun chose a relatively clean place and sat down, looking at Shangguan Lin quietly, she knew that what a person needed to practice was quiet, and she couldn't be disturbed by the outside world. Shangguan Lin is adjusting his breathing, he knows that the Jiuyang swordsmanship passed on to him by his father must be free of distractions in order to reach the highest realm, so he is constantly adjusting his state, since Shangguan Tian explained to Shangguan Lin half a year ago that he was going to leave for a period of time and never came back, but what to do specifically, he did not explain to Shangguan Lin, but only explained that he should take good care of Situ Yun, do not take half a step out of the South Bamboo Forest, and practice Jiuyang swordsmanship when he is okay (Jiuyang swordsmanship moves are mainly reflected in fast, strange, steady, fast as lightning, surprisingly difficult, and people can't figure out your swordsmanship moves。 The highest level of Jiuyang swordsmanship is that the sword is born from the heart, the move is made from the heart, the sword qi hurts people, and everything in heaven and earth can be used as a sword). Shangguan Lin didn't dare to ask more, nor did he dare to speculate more, although sometimes he occasionally asked about his father's rivers and lakes, Shangguan Tian just said that the rivers and lakes were sinister. There are not too many words to describe how sinister the rivers and lakes are. Shangguan Lin has never been in contact with the rivers and lakes since he was a child, although he is also very curious about what the rivers and lakes are, what kind of world the outside world is, he only knows that twenty years ago, after his father Shangguan Tian and a generation of sword immortals Ouyang Ying fought in Zixiao Palace, he took himself and his sister a few years younger than himself to live in seclusion here, and no longer asked about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and this little sister is now his wife Situ Yun. Therefore, although Shangguan Lin was very curious about the rivers and lakes, he still did not dare to go against his father's wishes, so he had to do things according to his father's wishes.
Shangguan Lin stood there for a long time and didn't move, Situ Yun didn't know what Shangguan Lin was thinking when he saw this, he was thinking so distractedly, maybe he was thinking about swordsmanship so distractedly, she also knew that it was not good for her to remind Shangguan Lin at the next moment, to avoid interrupting Shangguan Lin, just sitting there quietly, looking at Shangguan Lin affectionately, looking at this man who took care of him, looking at this man who loved him deeply, and also the man he loved deeply.
Suddenly, Shangguan Lin gently danced the slender bamboo branch in his hand, nodded with satisfaction, and then began to dance the slender bamboo branch according to the mantra of the Jiuyang Sword Technique and his own understanding of the Sword Technique, and then the bamboo branch danced faster and faster, as fast as a green dragon flying up and down in the bamboo forest, coiling left and right. I saw him dancing with bamboo branches, quiet like a tiger, moving like a flying dragon, slow like a cloud, as fast as lightning, steady and chic. The bamboo branches danced really well, the bamboo branches passed everywhere, and the wind was blowing, blowing the green leaf petals on the bamboo and falling down. He pressed the bamboo branch in his hand, restrained his smile, brushed the floor and lit up the open frame pose, his two eyes flashed like meteors, and his eyes danced energetically with the gestures. Suddenly stabbed the bamboo branch in his hand to the bamboo branch, at the same time, in the process of his slow fall, his hands were waving, and the bamboo leaves that had not fallen to the ground in the air were moved around his sleeves, and at the moment when Shangguan Lin landed, he waved his sleeves, and the bamboo leaves around the sleeves flew to the surrounding bamboo forest like a bamboo dart, and at this time the sound of snapping sounded, which was the sound of Shangguan Lin's bamboo branches breaking through the bamboo, and dozens of bamboo branches were pierced in a row, like a series of firecrackers, and then these bamboos slowly fell, and the bamboo leaves were also pierced into the bamboo joints。 Shangguan Lin shook his head when he saw that the bamboo leaves did not pierce the bamboo joints, saying that he was not very satisfied with himself, and he didn't know when he would be able to reach his father's realm. Then he walked towards Situ Yun.
When Situ Yun saw Shangguan Lin walking towards him, he slowly stood up and walked towards Shangguan Lin, and when he looked at Shangguan Lin and shook his head, he knew that Shangguan Lin was not very satisfied with the results of his sword practice, so he smiled and said to Shangguan Lin: "Brother Lin, your swordsmanship is very strong now. Situ Yun pointed to the fallen bamboo.
Shangguan Lin said: "Sister Yun, although I have made some progress, why can't I reach the realm that my father told me. Shangguan Lin pointed to the bamboo leaves that were still tattooed on the bamboo knots and said.
"Sister Yun, when do you say I will be able to reach my father's realm, my father was recognized as the first sword in the world by the people in the rivers and lakes in twenty years, and after winning the competition with the sword immortal, he was called the sword god by the people in the rivers and lakes, at that time, the swordsmanship in his hands could do whatever he wanted, and his father's age was only in his early thirties at that time, and his father's achievements were estimated to be impossible to achieve in this life, let alone surpass. Shangguan Lin said with a little sigh.
"Brother Lin, you are not in a hurry, after a long time, coupled with diligent practice, we can ask our father and ask him for advice, maybe one day you will be able to reach the state of your father. Situ Yun encouraged Shangguan Lin and said, she also knew that her father-in-law would never reach her father's realm and achievement in this life. But she could only comfort her husband.
Situ Yun didn't want Shangguan Lin to be still entangled in himself, so he changed the topic, "By the way, Brother Lin, we haven't seen our father for a long time, do you know, where did my father go?"
Shangguan Lin shook his head, saying that he didn't know what his father was doing.
After a while, Shangguan Lin's stomach rumbled, and he realized that he was a little hungry, and looked up at the sky, knowing that it was time for lunch. But he didn't want to go back to lunch, for fear of disturbing Situ Yun's Yaxing, Situ Yun heard the sound, so he said to Situ Yun: "Brother Lin, it's not too early, let's go back, Wang Ma and they are probably all cooking and waiting for us."
Shangguan Lin nodded, and the two walked with each other on their way home as they spoke.
