Chapter 40: The Sword of the Imperial Road
Chapter 040: The Sword of the Imperial Road
Unexpectedly, Ma Yuan was really not his enemy but a benefactor, Su Yu felt a little relieved in his heart, just looking at Ma Yuan's face will be running out, thinking of his past care for him, thinking of his various misunderstandings about him, Su Yu felt more and more uncomfortable.
When Su Yufang was about to ask about his condition and express comfort, a doubt appeared in his heart, so he asked Ma Yuan: "Is this really as you said? I have heard that someone saw you when my parents were killed, if this matter is as you said, then why didn't you save my parents in the first place?" Although Su Yu was suspicious, he was willing to believe that this matter was just as Ma Yuan said, and he spoke earnestly, calling Ma Yuan 'you'.
"That's right, when your parents were killed, I hid in the shadows, I could have saved your parents, but your parents were willing to die in order to preserve the whereabouts of a sword", Ma Yuan's eyes were full of admiration when he said this.
Su Yu expressed doubt: "A sword?", Su Yu had no impression of these things, at this time, Su Yu suddenly thought of the Red Soul Sword in Marven's hand, and then asked: "Uncle Ma, isn't this sword you are talking about my father's sword...... Red Soul?"
Ma Yuan shook his head and said, "The Red Soul Sword is indeed a good sword, and it ranks tenth among the top ten famous swords, but the sword that your father wants me to protect is far more precious than the Red Soul Sword. ”
Back then, Ma Yuan had the opportunity to take Zhao Xingyun and his wife away, but he didn't expect Zhao Xingyun and his wife to insist on refusing to leave, but let Ma Yuan take away a sword, Ma Wen was puzzled, so he asked Ma Yuan: "I know the importance of a sword to a swordsman, and some people will even use their lives to protect the sword, if a swordsman is willing to sacrifice his family for a sword, is this really a good swordsman?"
Ma Yuan's face was dark, and he muttered: "Not all swords are worthy of being sacrificed for it, unless the sword itself has an unusual value, and the sword that Zhao Xingyun wants to protect is worthy of being sacrificed for it, because this sword is related to the future direction of the rivers and lakes and the fate of the entire world."
Ma Yuan's expression was abnormal, and his words were amazing, and Su Yu and Ma Wen both showed surprised looks.
In Su Yu's view, the sword is important, but it is only a sword weapon, the value of the sword depends on its owner, a person with superb swordsmanship, even if he holds a very ordinary sword, can do extraordinary things;
Ma Yuan looked at Su Yu and said:
After the 'Dragon Gate Duel', both I and your father were injured, your father's injuries were particularly serious, your father has always been keen, and found that this matter was not pure, as if there was a hand secretly manipulating everything, and he was afraid that he would be miserable, so he told me a shocking secret:
In addition to the ten famous swords, there are seven divine swords, which are called "seven divine swords".
According to legend, these seven divine swords are all divine swords passed down from generation to generation in the family, and the top two are the "Sword of the Imperial Road", ...... 'Dragon Yin' and the "Sword of the Royal Road" ...... 'Fengming', and your father Zhao Xingyun is the head of the seven swords...... Dragon Yin Sword Master.
Hearing this, Su Yu was already stunned and frightened!
Sword and martial arts in the world, with sword and martial arts as respect, of course, there is no shortage of divine weapons!
Since crossing into this world, Su Yu has had a feeling that the ten famous swords will gradually appear, the seven divine swords will be destined for heaven, and the holy sword will be determined by eternity.
It's just that I didn't expect that I was the head of the Seven Swords, the Dragon Yin Sword Master!
Could it be that when I came to this world, I was destined to do something, and God willed it!
What bullshit providence, destiny, I am me, so I don't care what destiny is not destiny.
All of this is in my thoughts, and it has nothing to do with heaven!
Su Yu looked back at Marven, Marven was also surprised, although Marven had been by Ma Yuan's side for many years, Ma Yuan had never mentioned a word to him about these things, and Marven was also in a fog at this moment.
Su Yu asked Ma Yuan, "Uncle, you just mentioned the Dragon Yin Sword, what happened later?"
Ma Yuan took a sip of tea and continued: "Later, I found out that everything was a conspiracy, even the 'Dragon Gate Duel' between me and your father was in the calculations of the conspirators, and their purpose was to obtain the Dragon Yin Sword. ”
"In addition to you, my father, and the people of the Tiansha Sect, could there be other people involved in the events back then?" Su Yu was a little incredulous.
"That's right, he is Xiao Yan, who is known as the 'Thousand-Handed Poison King' by the people of the rivers and lakes, and it was he who used rhetoric to deceive me into a 'Dragon Gate Duel' with your father, and everything was in his calculations", at this time, Ma Yuan's eyes were full of anger.
"Then later, how happened to Xiao Yan?" Su Yu expressed concern about Xiao Yan's whereabouts.
"Seeing that your parents are dead, and your whereabouts are unknown, he still doesn't know the whereabouts of Long Yinjian, and finally left Xishan", "You wait a minute", Ma Yuan walked to the inner room as he spoke.
After a while, Ma Yuan walked out, holding a sword in his hand, the body of the sword was red, and the hilt of the sword was inlaid with seven night pearls.
Ma Yuan handed the sword to Su Yu and said, "Yu'er, this is the sword that your father exchanged for his life, now I will hand over this Dragon Yin Sword to you, from now on you will be the owner of this sword." ”
Su Yu took the dragon chant with both hands, and slowly pulled it out, the sword body emitted a red yellow dazzling light, the sword was three feet two long, the sword was half a finger wide, and a yellow dragon was entrenched on the fiery red sword body, lifelike, and the sword body exuded bursts of breath, making people feel shocked and convinced from the heart.
Su Yu looked at the Red Soul Sword placed next to him, the Red Soul Sword was cast in imitation of the Dragon Yin Sword, so judging from the appearance alone, the Red Soul Sword and the Dragon Yin Sword were almost the same, but the power was different from heaven and earth.
The world only knows that the Red Soul Sword is the sword of Zhao Xingyun, but they don't know that the Dragon Yin Sword is also the sword of Zhao Xingyun.
Su Yu was thinking about the scene from eleven years ago, he still had some impressions in his mind, vaguely remembering the events of that year, when Zhao Xingyun seemed to sense the crisis, he arranged Su Yu in a safe temple early, and when Su Yu rushed home the next day, the house had already turned to ashes.
With the help of his neighbor Chen's family, Su Yu found the bodies of his parents and made a simple cemetery for his parents, but at that time, time was pressing, and there were not even any words engraved on the tombstone.
Not long after Su Yu left, Xiao Yan sent people to dig in the ruins of the Zhao family, trying to find the Dragon Yin Sword, but the Dragon Yin Sword and the Red Soul Sword had been taken away by Ma Yuan, and Xiao Yan found nothing and had to leave.
Su Yu remembered what Chen Fei had said, after Su Yu's parents were killed, when the Zhao family's house was burned into ruins, some people kept digging on the ruins, Chen Fei thought they were looking for the Red Soul Sword, and now it seems that what they are looking for is not the Red Soul Sword, but the Dragon Yin Sword.
Just now, Su Yu was still very curious about what Ma Yuan said about the Seven Divine Swords, but after thinking about it, he felt more and more that what happened back then was just as Ma Yuan said, and he saw that the Dragon Yin Sword was very exquisite, full of sword energy, and indeed had the style of the imperial sword, and he was even more convinced that what Ma Yuan said was true.
Ma Yuan said to Su Yu: "Back then, I could have taken your parents away, but your father thought that as long as he didn't die, Xiao Yan would definitely chase after him, and I really had no choice but to leave with this Dragon Yin Sword and Red Soul Sword."
Su Yu knew that this dragon sword was exchanged for his father's life, and he must cherish it.
Marven was thinking: "This dragon sword is infinitely powerful, if it falls into the hands of evil people, it will definitely bring a lot of disasters to the martial arts, Zhao Xingyun would rather die himself than this sword fall into the hands of Xiao Yan, what a good man'."
Ma Yuan said to Su Yu earnestly: "Yu'er, from now on you are the master of the Dragon Yin Sword, although I don't know what the true mission of the Seven Swords is, but I know that the future martial arts will be a situation where good and evil will fight and surging upsurge, and you must find the other six swords to have the ability to punish the demons and defend the way."
The Dragon Yin Divine Sword is the sword of the Imperial Road, the first of the seven swords, and the supreme of ten thousand swords.
How many people have never heard of this sword, and how many have dreamed of it.
All of this has changed so fast.
Su Yu saw Ma Yuan's rickety body and haggard face in front of him, and knew that Ma Yuan's time was short, and his heart was grateful: "Uncle, don't worry, I know how to do it, I will not dishonor the name of my father, and I will not live up to my uncle's high expectations." ”
Ma Yuan nodded happily, looked at Su Yu and smiled, obviously very satisfied with Su Yu, and then looked at Marven next to him, there were still blood stains oozing from Marven's hands and legs.
Ma Yuan has been very strict with Marven for many years, as long as Marven does not do a sword move, or even an action well, Ma Yuan will severely punish him, and sometimes he will not let Marven eat all day.
In addition to teaching Ma Wen martial arts, Ma Yuan also taught him strategy, and even let him go to the rivers and lakes to try when Ma Wen was twelve or thirteen years old.
Ma Yuan said to Ma Wen: "Ma'er, it has been ten years since I accepted you as an apprentice for my teacher, and I have been letting you practice martial arts hard for ten years, but because my teacher used to abandon his martial arts in front of Huyu's grave, I can't pass on my secret weapon and even the essence of 'Ape Strike Technique' and 'Horseshoe Technique' to you, so I will also teach you the 'Twenty-Three Ways Sword Technique' that Zhao Xingyun taught me in the past, for today."
"I want you to worship Zhaoyu as your eldest brother and assist him wholeheartedly to accomplish great things, if your eldest brother is in danger in the future, I want you to protect him with your own life, are you willing?"
At this moment, seeing that Ma Yuan let him worship Su Yu as his eldest brother, and wanted to protect Su Yu with his own life, Marven agreed without thinking about it, and said: "Apprentice obeys Master's order."
Marven walked up to Su Yu, knelt down on one knee in front of Su Yu, and said, "Brother Zhao, I was offended a lot before, and I ask the eldest brother not to mind, and in the future, he will be the first to be the eldest brother."
Marven is quite famous in the rivers and lakes, known as 'Rogue Rogue', seeing Marven kneeling in front of him at this moment, Su Yu was stunned for a while, and he didn't know how to speak.
Su Yu knew that Marven was a rare talent, and Ma Yuan's purpose in cultivating Marven was to help him accomplish great things, since this matter was Ma Yuan's long-term effort, he was moved in his heart, and hurriedly Marven helped him up: "Brother Xian, I am sorry for you, and you are injured all over." ”
"It's me who didn't make things clear, Brother Zhao really doesn't have to blame himself"
"By the way, I have been adopted by the Su family all these years, and they have given me a name...... Su Yu, in order to thank them for their kindness, I will take the name of 'Su Yu', don't call me Brother Zhao in the future, let's call me Brother Su!"
"Yes, Brother Su!"
The three of them then said some ordinary words, and when it was getting late, Marven cooked the meal, and after the three of them had eaten, they went back to their rooms to rest.
