At the entrance of the villa, a group of three people was extremely eccentric, there was a delicate, but ruffian man in a green shirt standing in the middle, on his right hand stood a child wearing a hat and covering his face, and on his left hand stood a tall and strong man, and the hammer on his back was particularly conspicuous.

Originally, Zhao Kai and the three of them, who would not have entered Shu and would not pass through Xueluo Mountain Villa, after hearing the news of the birth of Longyou Sword and the gathering of heroes from all walks of life, they all invariably said that they wanted to come here to observe the demeanor of the masters. For Zhao Kai, anyway, if he wants to go to the enemy country of Dachu, he has not yet discussed, so he can delay it for a few days.

The gate inspection was very strict, and the three of them were naturally blocked out of the door without invitations, which made Zhao Kai very helpless, a little depressed, and he complained in his heart: "It won't even be impossible to enter the door." Yang Xiao quietly took out an iron card, and then the guard who blocked the door looked carefully, and then quickly nodded and changed his smile.

The guard smiled and said, "It turned out to be the commander of the Mo family, please come in, please come in, wait for me to report to the owner of my family, and then someone will naturally arrange a place for the commander." "It turns out that ordinary martial artists in the rivers and lakes are inspected by these guards, but for the well-known sects or heroes in the rivers and lakes, it is naturally greeted by the owner of the village in person.

Soon, a young woman who looked like a waiter led the three of them to a separate courtyard and walked on the wide mountain road. Zhao Kai looked at the garden in the villa

Although the building is not as diverse as the plants, trees, flowers and fruits of the royal garden, there is a unique beauty of the landscape in the south of the Yangtze River, and more importantly, at this time, the voice of the people is boiling, which makes the garden more humane.

After arriving at the single-family courtyard, the three of them learned that the martial arts competition would start tomorrow morning according to the martial arts talk they heard all the way, Yang Xiao said: "It's better to come than to come by chance, we came in time." Zhao Kai did not dismantle the stage for the first time, and nodded with the sledgehammer.

After that, Zhao Kai began to practice every afternoon boxing frame and the matching pile pile, there are several maids in the courtyard who specialize in serving guests, at this time they are all interested in watching the child Zhao Kai practicing boxing with a hat. In the middle of the small courtyard, Zhao Kai first stood on the pile, and then slowly walked the pile, his steps were solid, and his arm movements changed to play a thick fist, Yang Xiao sat next to him and only occasionally pointed out one or two, and most of the time he didn't make a sound.

The maids in the garden were very surprised, although Yang Xiao did not get his intention to boxing at this time, but he already had his form, so in their opinion, Zhao Kai's boxing method at this time was smooth, like a little grandmaster, and Yang Xiao, who was sitting next to him, must be a boxing master.

Yang Xiao taught Zhao Kai Xingyi Boxing, also known as Xinyi Liuhe Boxing, that is, the heart and the mind, the will and the qi, the qi and the force, the shoulder and the hip, the elbow and the knee, the hand and the foot. There are also three-body pile skills, five-element boxing and twelve-shaped boxing, practice to the later stage, need to achieve a high degree of unity between the inner shape and the outer meaning, so at this time Zhao Kai has just mastered its shape, and is far from reaching the realm of entering the room.

Just when Zhao Kai was concentrating on practicing boxing, he suddenly heard a subtle word, his voice was serious and serious, Zhao Kai listened carefully, and the voice said: "Child, do you want to be my master?"

Zhao Kai's fist was instantly loosened, and when he looked around, he found that everything was still the same as before, and he was extremely surprised.

Then he said, "Son, you can talk to me with your heart." ”

Yang Xiao saw that Zhao Kai's boxing was loose, and he felt strange in his heart, because generally speaking, Yang Xiao's boxing practice would not stop until sunset.

Zhao Kai thought in his heart, and he didn't plan to tell Yang Xiao about the strange things at this time for the time being. So he shouted to Yang Xiao: "I'm tired, I'm tired, I'll go to the house to rest." Then he ran into the house and closed the door.

After entering the house, Zhao Kai suppressed the surprise in his heart, and said calmly in his heart: "Who are you? Why can you contact me like this?"

A kind voice sounded: "I am the sword spirit of a sword, you can call me Longyou." ”

Zhao Kai almost couldn't hold back and blurt out, but he still suppressed his mood and said calmly: "Dragon, Dragon You Sword." ”

Zhao Kai didn't expect that the sword snatched in this competition actually had a sword spirit, and he also found himself. He thought of the sword spirit's request just now, and continued to ask, "You want me to be your master, really?"

The sword spirit replied: "I was born and came here by chance, and I can feel the dragon qi myself, so I followed the clues to find you." ”

Yingyun, dragon qi, the arrival of these words surprised Zhao Kai, who was only eight years old. Thoughtful, he instantly thought of a question, and he said: "Even if I become your master, how can I take you away from the martial arts arena and from the public eye, can you sneak away by yourself? But even so, how can I guarantee that I will not be discovered?"

The Sword Spirit didn't think about it, obviously thinking about it earlier, and he said calmly, "You can ask your companions to help you try to take me away, and then let them hand over the sword to you when the time comes." ”

Zhao Kai heard this, and thought about it seriously, is this reliable, Yang Xiao, the relationship between the big hammer and himself doesn't seem to be good enough to get to this point.

Seeing that Zhao Kai was embarrassed, the sword spirit said: "It's really not good, I can find an opportunity to escape away first, and then come to make a contract with you." Or you come to power in person, and I can help in secret, but then it will be too conspicuous, and it is hard to guarantee that no one will find out. ”

Seeing that Zhao Kai was still thinking, the sword spirit said, "I'll come to you again in the evening, and I'll give me the answer when the time comes." ”

Zhao Kai snorted, he couldn't help but think in his heart, he was only eight years old and definitely couldn't come to power, it was too conspicuous, even if others thought I was a talented master, Yang Xiao and the big hammer would not believe it, then there were two other ways left, Zhao Kai decided to try to tell Yang Xiao about it first, after all, even if he told it, it didn't seem to be anything, and it seemed that this kidnapper was not bad all the way.

Zhao Kai pushed open the door and saw that Yang Xiao and the big hammer were basking in the sun in the yard, he walked over quickly and told them that they had important things to discuss, although the two were confused, but they still followed into the door, the maid in the courtyard was obviously very educated, and no one came in to disturb him.

Zhao Kai cautiously closed the door of the house, and whispered in a calm and credible tone as much as possible: "Just now, a guy who claimed to be the sword spirit of Longyou Sword came to me, saying that he wanted to recognize me as the master. ”

Yang Xiao and the sledgehammer widened their eyes at the same time, and Yang Xiao took the lead in questioning: "What?"

Zhao Kai said helplessly: "When I first heard it, I had the same reaction as you. But it's true, I need you to help me win this sword, if you want to, of course. ”

Yang Xiao and the big hammer glanced at each other and fell silent, it was not that they were unwilling to help Zhao Kai seize the sword, but the matter of the sword spirit was too shocking and involved too much.

The world's famous swords, each with its own unique characteristics, just like Yang Xiao's pure Jun sword is famous for its fierce sword spirit and peak sword momentum. Not every sword has a sword spirit, but there is no doubt that if there is a spirit in the sword, this sword must be very precious and powerful, and every sword with a sword spirit will be able to enter the top ten famous swords in the world as long as it is born.

Yang Xiao opened his mouth and said: "If this sword has a spirit, it will be very precious, but in the same way, if this matter leaks out, the husband is not guilty, and he will definitely have a lot of trouble." Moreover, the sword spirit recognizes the master, and when the contract is made, it needs to endure great pain, and after the contract is made, it needs the master to nourish it with blood. Can you?"

Zhao Kai nodded firmly, and Yang Xiao looked at the sledgehammer, who nodded in agreement.

At night, Zhao Kai lay on the bed, waiting for the arrival of the sword spirit. The night seems to be a devil that can seduce people's hearts, and will always draw out the fragile sorrow in people's hearts. Zhao Kai thought of his relatives again, although the palace rules are strict, and the task of studying and practicing martial arts is heavy, but he is always accompanied by his mother in his free time, and occasionally he will see his father who seems to be extremely busy with affairs, he will cherish the time of family reunion, and at this time, the man who is very afraid of everyone in the palace will also show a warm smile and play with him kindly.

He rubbed his red eyes, he knew that he was now deep on the chessboard of others, and he couldn't control his own destiny, so he clasped his hands and secretly told himself that the road had to be taken step by step, and one day he could control his destiny, and the choices he made could also influence others.

Just as Zhao Kai clenched his fists, the serious voice of the sword spirit finally remembered: "Have you thought of an answer?"

Zhao Kai said seriously: "Yang Xiao and the big hammer promised me that I would try my best to win the first place in the competition, and I also thought about it and promised you to become my sword spirit." ”

Sword Spirit's voice gradually became kind: "Okay, master, I am waiting for you to come and make a contract with me in person." A long silence followed.

Early the next morning, the three of them got up early, Yang Xiao and Big Hammer told the maids in the courtyard yesterday and asked them to sign up for the two of them, and then learned that their first competition was tomorrow, and the three of them were going out to watch the battle in the ring today.

In fact, on the first day of the villa, there are many inconspicuous rivers and lakes, and the main events seem to be behind, but it is inevitable that there will be no masters who are not obvious, or they are big guys who pretend to be pigs and eat tigers. So in addition to being familiar with the rules of the competition today, the three of them also have how many big fish will surface today.

The three of them entered the martial arts arena, today is not the main event, but it is still crowded, one by one the rings stand in the middle of the arena, and in the middle of the martial arts arena, a tall platform hangs a golden ancient long sword, it is the Longyou Sword, surrounded by several martial artists guarding the courtyard, and there are masters guarding in secret.

After listening to Lin Xiao's opinion on the sword guard lineup, Zhao Kai secretly rejoiced, fortunately, he didn't choose to let the sword spirit escape with the flying sword.

After a while, several middle-aged people dressed in distinguished clothes entered the arena, and in front of them was an extremely young and handsome man. The three of them listened to the Jianghu people next to them explain that this young man was the young owner of Xueluo Mountain Villa, and then everyone was an elder or worshipper of the mountain villa, and now they were going to be the referees of this competition.

After the referee entered, the competition began one after another. Indeed, as everyone expected, there were no particularly outstanding martial artists all morning, they were all mediocre in strength, and it was difficult to distinguish between them in a fight.

By the afternoon, the situation had turned. There are two people who are extremely eye-catching, one is a handsome but unkempt middle-aged man, wearing a long sword on his waist against a clan who practices foreign boxing, the whole fight down the man's sword is not out of the sheath, only with the scabbard to attack people seven inches, so that the other party has no power to parry.

The other was even more strange, a woman with outstanding appearance, she did not use any weapons, and her jiu-jitsu made everyone in the audience look at it without taking their eyes off it, and only half an hour later, the man opposite the big knife collapsed to the ground in exhaustion and admitted defeat on her own.

At night, the three of them were speechless, waiting for the competition to start tomorrow.
