When Wang Yi and Lu Zhong were walking on the streets of Chang'an City, Li Taibai took Zhang Changsheng to a small town.

After Zhang Changsheng experienced the flying of the imperial sword over the Qiantang River, he no longer doubted Li Taibai, and his reverence was more than before. When he was on the road, Li Taibai bought an old horse, and the old horse heard the seller say that it was a military horse that had been retired from the border a few years ago, and there were many military horses in the same batch.

The asking price was one hundred taels, but Li Taibai was an old man, and after some bargaining, he sold it for ten taels of silver, which made Zhang Changsheng feel distressed.

Li Taibai didn't care about this, put Zhang Changsheng on top of the old horse, and led the old horse to continue driving. Zhang Changsheng was actually tired for a long time, he was already young, he followed Li Taibai for a long time, and his feet came out of a lot of blisters, but Zhang Changsheng didn't say anything.

Li Taibai actually knew some reasons, but he was afraid that he would leave Zhang Changsheng behind and not take him to walk the rivers and lakes. At that time, when Zhang Changsheng was taken away from the village, his grandmother and parents were a little distressed, but Zhang Changsheng just wanted to follow Li Taibai to walk the rivers and lakes, and he was not willing to stay in the village at all.

Along the way, Li Taibai took Zhang Changsheng to study and walk the rivers and lakes, and saw a lot of mountains and rivers, beautiful scenery, the state of the world, and the life of the people.

Li Taibai hadn't taught Zhang Changsheng any swordsmanship, let alone the hundred-step piercing Yang who was often talked about by Zhang Changsheng, but just gave him a few sword moves and let him practice when he was bored.

Lao Ma's body was hung with a bookbag, which contained all the books that Zhang Changsheng had read recently, as well as those gossip that Zhang Changsheng regarded as treasures.

In the town, I didn't notice the pair of master and apprentice, a middle-aged man with a child, and an old horse, which was very usual.

Li Taibai found a teahouse, hugged Zhang Changsheng down, and the master and apprentice walked into the teahouse together.

Sitting on the chair, naturally the shopkeeper came forward and asked what he wanted, Li Taibai said that it was time to have a cup of hot tea, and then some big fish and meat, walking the rivers and lakes, and eating first.

After the shopkeeper wrote down the dishes they ordered, he greeted Li Taibai and the two of them and walked to the back kitchen. After taking his seat, Zhang Changsheng sat on a chair about the same height as himself, revealing a small head, looking at the empty table, not knowing what he was thinking.

Soon the shopkeeper brought the food prepared in the store to the table, with both wine and meat, Li Taibai looked at Zhang Changsheng, who was sitting on the chair all night and kept swallowing saliva, and smiled slightly, "Eat." ”

Zhang Changsheng snorted, and then took a big gulp. Li Taibai raised the wine glass in his hand, and the taste was not as good as the car of wine that Wang Yi gave him.

"Master, you said that you went to Chang'an City to save a senior and meet an old man, did you do it? ”

Li Taibai put down the wine glass in his hand and smiled, "I saw it, and I saved it." ”

Zhang Changsheng took the chicken leg all the time, and asked for the next piece of chicken, his cheeks bulging high, "That senior master has said,

He is the abbot master of the Little Buddha Temple, and he is a master, so the master will tell me about the old man of the master. ”

Li Taibai thought for a while, "What's good about him, you just need to know your master." ”

Zhang Changsheng didn't comply, holding a wine glass in his hand, he poured himself a cup of hot tea, "Master, if I see your old man at that time, I don't know what to say, it's not good." ”

Li Taibai ignored Zhang Changsheng's words, that kid can come to him alive and talk about it, a few days ago Li Taibai heard a lot of news about Chang'an City, Wang Yi was named a homecoming marquis, and he was knighted and given silver, and let Wang Yi replace the Ming Emperor to pay tribute to those dead Ming soldiers. If Emperor Ming had this thought, how could it be delayed until now. Wang Yi was also a little anxious, how could he tell the affairs of Youzhou in public, in this way, it was tantamount to putting himself in the open.

But fortunately, with the identity of Jinyiwei, Ji Gang, who he has met a few times, is still a good person, but now I don't know where it is, that Lu Zhong and Li Taibai have seen it in Meridian Lane, and Xiuwei is enough to protect Wang Yi and them in the rivers and lakes, but it is not so simple above the court.

Zhang Changsheng suddenly shouted: "Master, Master, I have figured it out, I finally know why you didn't tell me about that old man." ”

Li Taibai was a little puzzled and asked, "Come, tell me why." ”

Zhang Changsheng replied with a smile: "Because Master's old man and Master are both fellow practitioners. ”

Zhang Changsheng patted his chest and used an idiom he had seen from the book a few days ago, and suddenly felt that he had not read in vain.

Li Taibai was puzzled: "How can you be a fellow believer?"

Zhang Changsheng quietly moved his chair and took a big step in the direction away from Li Taibai, "They are all the same as Master, they like to play drunk. ”

Li Taibai held the wine glass that was placed in his mouth, and suddenly felt that this wine was not tasteful, there was no show to watch, and he glanced at it with his spare eyes, not far away, Zhang Changsheng, who was laughing, "You kid can chat." ”

Zhang Changsheng said very politely: "That's right, I've read a book. ”

Li Taibai smiled and stretched out his hand, about to hit Zhang Changsheng, Zhang Changsheng stayed away from Li Taibai again, and did the opposite side of Li Taibai, of course, he didn't forget to eat a bite of the chicken leg in his hand.

Suddenly, Li Taibai sat back in his chair, picked up the wine glass in his hand, turned around, squinted, and looked into the distance.

At the end of the street, a woman with two swords on her back met Li Taibai's eyes, the woman was only twenty-eight years old, stopped in the distance, stood with her hands down, and looked at the restaurant.

Almost at the same time, in Zhang Changsheng's surprised eyes, Li Taibai stepped over the threshold, walked out of the restaurant, and walked down the steps.

Then, in an instant, there were more than twenty women carrying double swords on the streets, and their faces and swords were exactly the same as the previous women.

Li Taibai raised the wine glass in his hand, turned around and came to the woman's not far away, looking at the woman with a little dark skin, Li Taibai smiled and slowly spoke, "Female swordsmen are still rare in the old man for so many years. ”

The woman with the wrong golden knife pursed her lips, and the fur of the beast on her body fell on it

In Li Taibai's eyes, and then looking at the double swords behind the woman, Li Taibai had a guess about the woman's origin.

"A few years ago, there were rumors in the northern part of the Ming Dynasty that there was a female swordsman who carried a double sword and killed a lot of Northern Qi scouts on the border, it should be you. ”

Jin Dao Co nodded slowly, and said in a hoarse voice: "I didn't expect Taibai seniors to know me." ”

Li Taibai laughed, and sighed in his heart, "The old man has been on the rivers and lakes for decades, and he is used to seeing male swordsmen, this female swordsman has only seen three, and you are the fourth." ”

The golden knife mistakenly pulled out the double swords behind his back, and stood with his feet stretched out, the double swords in front of him, ready to draw the sword at any time.

Li Taibai glanced at the golden sword, and then said: "There are a lot of people who practice swords in the Ming Dynasty, but most of them are people who sell their reputations, and the old man is upset, so most of the people who ask the old man about the sword are all knocked down by my sword, so they break their sword hearts, but those who really want to practice swords, the old man has always cherished talents, repaired their swordsmanship, and deceived people from the realm, all of them are tested with swordsmanship." ”

"You little girl doll is just the realm of Xingjun, and kendo is not as good as those old swordsmen who have practiced swords for many years. ”

The golden knife was not affected by Li Taibai's words in the slightest, and only clenched the double swords in his hands.

Li Taibai said again: "The old man is in the rivers and lakes for a day, and those juniors who want to practice swords will practice swords, and they can't surpass the old man anyway, but in terms of swordsmanship alone, the old man is not as good as you." ”

Zhang Changsheng, who was not far away, was even more shocked when he heard his master's words, is there anything more powerful in this world than his master in using a sword?

On the streets, those ordinary people had fled early from here, but there were those bold people hiding in the shadows, secretly observing the two of them, such a swordsman competition had never been seen in this small town.

When Zhang Changsheng was thinking, a breeze blew beside him, and an old man in sackcloth did Zhang Changsheng's side, and said with a smile: "Little doll, your master's kendo is indeed the first in the world, but that is only the way of swordsmanship, in terms of swordsmanship, this female doll from the Golden Daomen of Liangzhou is the first in the world, this is not a matter of realm, it is talent." ”

Zhang Changsheng was a little puzzled, he couldn't figure it out, who was this old man, listening to the tone of his voice, as if he knew his master.

Li Taibai, who was standing on the long street, suddenly turned his head and glanced in the direction of the restaurant, Gu Kaiyi, who was sitting next to Zhang Changsheng, smiled and said loudly: "Li Taibai, don't worry, the old man won't do anything to your apprentice, just rest assured." ”

Li Taibai snorted coldly, retracted his gaze, and looked at the golden knife in front of him, "Several schools in the Ming Dynasty who practice swords, except for the Sword Pavilion, the Xishu Sword Shrine, and the Liangzhou Golden Sword Gate, all walked into the eyes of the old man. ”

"So the old man just asked the three swords back then, and the Golden Sword Gate was the heaviest this time. When I got there, I wanted to ask the old master about the sword, but the master of the door who usurped the throne back then, it seems that it should be your uncle, and he excused himself and said that the old master died, how could the old man not see this, so he killed those people in the Golden Sword Gate with a sword, but I never had any women and children, so none of those family members I moved, and the old master did die early. ”

"You, a girl from the Golden Dao Sect, want to avenge your father?"
