Guiyun Town is not long, you can see the end of the street from the street, it is not wide, just enough for a carriage to pass, but the street is very lively, both sides are shops and restaurants. In addition to listening to and hearing books, Ye Han also likes to watch pedestrians coming and going on the street.

They rub against each other and merge with each other, like a shrunken river and lake. Ye Han likes to see people with long swords on their backs the most, and they can look at them all day without blinking. They were dressed in samurai costumes, and they were majestic and imposing.

How much Ye Han wanted to touch their swords and take their long swords, but he knew that the swords were used to kill people, not for him to play, and he was so sorry in his heart.

These sword-carrying people in Guiyun Town are none other than the Qin Sword Sect, one of the seven major sects of the rivers and lakes. The Qin Sword Sect was once brilliant, but it flourished and declined. In the chaos of the rivers and lakes a hundred years ago, the Qin Sword Sect once produced a peerless genius Chu Tianshu, who brought the Qin Sword Sect's four halls of martial arts to the extreme, the sword qi was nine feet long, and the sword qi was vertical and horizontal, almost dominating the rivers and lakes, and becoming the supreme martial arts.

The Qin Sword Sect also reached the peak of its glory at that time, but the moon was full and overflowing. In the end, in the Yinfeng Hall and the Tingyu Hall, the various sects defeated the wizards of the year, and it was at this time that the Thunder Hall and the Lightning Hall rebelled against the Qin Sword Sect, which caused the later decline of the Qin Sword Sect.

Chu Tianshu has become a legend in the rivers and lakes, and everyone's standard for practicing swords is based on Chu Tianshu, hoping to achieve the same achievements as him. Some people say that Chu Tianshu did not die, but used his sword qi to shatter the void and go out of the sky. His legend is full of magic and makes people yearn for it.

Every year, the Qin Sword Sect will receive some martial arts people who come to visit, they all want to see where the martial arts wizard Chu Tianshu was born, and what is the magic place.

Chu Tianshu was from the Qin Sword Sect, and the Qin Sword Sect was almost removed. If it weren't for the Qin Sword Sect's meritorious work in quelling the chaos, there would be no chance to occupy a seat in the Seven Great Sects. With the continuous emergence of wizards in the rivers and lakes, the status of the Qin Sword Sect became more and more dangerous, and although it was still one of the seven factions, not many people recognized it.

Over the past hundred years, all generations of talents of the Qin Sword Sect have worked hard to revive his glory, and every ten years the Qin Sword Sect will participate in the Seven Factions Alliance, hoping that their strength will be recognized again.

The Qin Sword Sect was at the foot of the mountain north of Guiyun Town, and the shouts of their martial arts training could be clearly heard in every corner of Guiyun Town. Every time Ye Han heard the shouting, he was so envious in his heart, how much he wished he was one of them, how good it would be!

The Qin Sword Sect is not something that can be entered casually, and outer disciples need to pay one hundred taels of silver to get started. Ten taels of silver is enough for an ordinary person's life for a year, and one hundred taels of silver is simply an astronomical amount. Ye Han knew very well that it would not be easy for his mother to support himself, and he had no money left over to let him enter the Qin Sword Sect.

Ye Han is a sensible child, he never does anything that makes his mother embarrassed, but the shouting of martial arts makes him involuntarily approach the Qin Sword Sect. After reading it, he couldn't help but learn again. Ye Han has never been out of Guiyun Town, and of course he doesn't know that stealing other people's martial arts is a taboo in the rivers and lakes.

If he is discovered, he is lucky enough to escape with a small life, and he will definitely not be able to escape from being crippled. The rivers and lakes have reached a very consistent tacit understanding on stealing learning, and the killer must be unique to win, of course, they don't want to be stolen. As the saying goes: "Often walk by the river, how can you not get your shoes wet", Ye Handong Window incident happened, and he was taken to see Yue Zhongming, the head of the Qin Sword Sect.

Guiyun Town is not big, and the people in the town basically know each other. Yue Zhongming has a boxy face with Chinese characters, does not smile or smile, and has a momentum that is not angry but mighty, which is intimidating. Ye Han had always been afraid of him. Yue Zhongming went to drink tea with three cups of incense, and Ye Han didn't even dare to look at him.

"It is taboo to secretly practice other people's martial arts without permission, and the rivers and lakes usually kill scholars when dealing with stealing scholars, don't you know?" Yue Zhongming's words came out slowly, making killing people as easy as killing chickens. Ye Han was shocked in his heart, trembling in his heart, and didn't know what to do.

Ye Han was very scared in his heart, but his desire to learn the sword was even greater, he knelt down straight and said loudly: "Master Yue, please accept me as an apprentice! I will work hard to learn the sword to repay the Qin Sword Sect." ”

When everyone heard a little kid say that he wanted to repay the Qin Sword Sect, they laughed out loud as if they had heard the best joke in the world. The laughter shook the eaves, and a layer of dust fell off, which showed how loud their laughter was.

Ye Han was unmoved by everyone's ridicule, he just kept kowtowing, knocking his head out of blood, hoping that Master Yue would be merciful and accept him into the Qin Sword Sect.

"There is no free lunch in the world, and the Qin Sword Sect doesn't need anything to repay, after you are an old man, don't come again in the future, otherwise you will break your dog's legs." Yue Zhongming was not moved by what Ye Han said in return, the rivers and lakes have their own rules, but to treat a child who doesn't know anything with the rules of the rivers and lakes will inevitably lose the morality of the rivers and lakes.

Ye Han's stubborn temper was committed, kneeling on the ground and refusing to get up. Yue Zhongming had no choice at all, so he had to call someone to call Ye Han's mother-in-law. After Hui Niang came, no matter what she said, Ye Han still knelt on the ground and didn't move.

"Han'er, go home with your mother. ”

"No, I'm going to learn the sword. ”

Yue Zhongming also had a headache, this little kid was really difficult to handle, so he asked, "Why do you want to learn swords." Ye Han raised his head and said, "I want to get my father back." Ye Han's mother couldn't imagine that Ye Han knew everything at a young age, and her heart ached.

Yue Zhongming said: "It's not impossible if you want to learn martial arts, as long as you take out the silver, I don't want to break the rules for you." Ye Han looked at his mother, and reluctantly got up and left, how much he wanted to learn swords!

Ye Han didn't know how to get home, Hui Niang called him a few times but didn't hear it, and he almost ate it in his nose when he ate. Hui Niang couldn't help but sigh when she saw Ye Han's appearance.

Ye Han raised his head and said firmly: "Mother, I just want to learn swords, as long as you promise me to learn swords, let me do anything." Hui Niang doesn't know why her son likes swords so much, the rivers and lakes are a place where people eat people and don't spit out bones, and there is a place where there is no return. Why everyone likes to jump into it.

What kind of sin have I created, he must go to the rivers and lakes, there is no news, as if he has disappeared, now, Han'er is also going to enter the rivers and lakes, if something happens, how can I live! Hui Niang thought about these pains and squatted on the ground and cried bitterly.

After crying, Hui Niang stood up and wiped away her tears and replied to Ye Han, "No." Hui Niang didn't leave a little room for Ye Han. Ye Han looked at his mother's resolute eyes, knowing that there was no hope, but he still wanted to learn the sword, no matter what he did, he was thinking about the sword, and his soul was no longer here.

"Wronged, wronged!" Ye Hanniang watched her son lose weight day by day, and she had to go to the Qin Sword Sect again against her heart.

As soon as Hui Niang arrived at the Qin Sword Sect, Yue Zhongming hurriedly came out to greet her: "Sister-in-law, why are you here again." Hui Niang arched her hand and said, "Han'er's affairs have to bother Master Yue." Originally, he didn't want Han'er to learn swords again, so as not to follow in his father's footsteps, but he was already obsessed, so let him be an outer disciple! ”

If Ye Han saw that the head of the Qin Sword Sect was so polite to his mother, his jaw would definitely drop in shock. Head Yue nodded and said, "Back then, Brother Ye had a great favor to the Qin Sword Sect, so of course there was no problem with this little thing. ”

Ye Han finally became a member of the Qin Sword Sect, although he was an outer disciple, as long as he could learn the sword, he didn't care about anything. Nowadays, the swordsmanship of the rivers and lakes is respected, so the martial arts refer to the swordsmanship to divide the grades.

The swordsmanship is divided into five levels, from top to bottom, divided into Jiangang, there are few people in the rivers and lakes in general, it is rumored that only the seven strange people in the rivers and lakes have reached this realm; It is said that the legend of the Qin Sword Sect that Chu Tianshu's sword qi reached nine feet, and he was the only one who could cultivate the sword qi to a length of nine feet.

Generally, the length of sword qi is about three feet, divided into four levels: purple, gold, white and blue, purple is the most condensed, and it is also the most powerful; The sword mang also distinguishes the condensation of the sword according to the color, there are four colors: purple, gold, white and blue, purple is respected, and then below is the sword shadow, which is the first stage to start.

A sword learner produces a sword shadow in three years, and if he can't even produce a sword shadow in three years, he will have nothing to do in his life. And then there's the stage where there's nothing, and that's the initial stage.

Yin Feng advocated the north wind and had cultivated sword qi, and there were three senior brothers who were Chen Shangyuan, Wang Changfeng, and Gao Jian, all of whom were already seventeen or eighteen years old, and Chen Shangyuan was the only one among the disciples who had cultivated sword qi.

Listening to Qian Yu, the master of the Yutang Hall, cultivated his sword qi, and there were four disciples under his disciples, Yue Lan'er, Wang Sheng, Wang Ming, and Zhao Ying. Yue Lan'er, Wang Sheng, and Zhao Ying all only practiced swords.

Senior brother Chen Shangyuan is the first family in the returning town, with countless gold and silver at home, originally thought that he was such a gentleman, learning martial arts just to make a living, but what he didn't expect was that his martial arts were the highest among many disciples.

He has been revitalizing the sect since he was a child, practicing Sanjiu in winter and Sanfu in summer, and he cultivated sword qi at the age of twenty, although the sword qi is still cyan sword qi, it is very good. The talent is comparable to the genius Chu Tianshu a hundred years ago. Everyone called him the myth of the Qin Sword Sect and regarded him as the only hope for the revitalization of the Qin Sword Sect.

The outer disciples are no longer divided into separate halls, because many outer disciples can't practice swords at all, so there is no need for this, and they are all taught by Chen Shangyuan. There are many disciples of the outer sect of the Qin Sword Sect, and those with the highest skill can only cultivate to the sword shadow. After Ye Han entered the outer door, he didn't even have a sword. Chen Shangyuan only gave him a bamboo sword, and he didn't teach him any sword moves, only let him stab the wind, and didn't ask.

The introduction to the swordsmanship of Yinfeng Hall is just to stab the wind, yes, it is to stand on a stake and stab towards the wind. The boring stinging wind, but Ye Han stabbed seriously. In order to let the disciples learn martial arts seriously, the Qin Sword Sect, whether it is an outer disciple or an inner disciple, lives in the sect, even if his home is very close.

Of course, the outer disciples are not like the inner disciples, each person has a single room to live in, they always live in one room with four or five people, and Ye Han lives with the other four.

Zhang Cai is the oldest, seventeen this year, the purpose of his martial arts study is to change his life, he is the son of a blacksmith in Zhennan, Guiyun Town, and there are four younger siblings in the family, and he must take responsibility for the heavy responsibility of supporting the family. After learning martial arts, he found a job as a dart master or a nurse, and he was very satisfied. The other four are Nie Ming, Gao Cheng, and Song Nan, and their dreams are almost the same as Zhang Cai's.
