Chapter 20 Temporary Separation

I don't know if it's because Hu Man'er's own physique is excellent, or because Su Jinyan's pill really works, after only three days of recuperation, Hu Man'er's injuries have already healed, and he didn't even leave a scar. It's just that the sword qi in the body still has a trace of residue.

Hu Man'er meditated for a while, and the true qi in the body slowly dissipated the trace of sword qi, and inadvertently found that the dumb door was loose. I don't know if it's the effect of this sword qi, but it actually makes my realm show signs of breakthrough again.

Hu Man'er intentionally or unintentionally dragged the sword qi to the dumb door, as if an invisible small sword was spinning rapidly along his meridians, and then stabbed towards the slightly loose gate of the dumb door at great speed. Once, twice, three times. After countless attempts, a pop pierced the door of the dumb door.

Then all the true qi poured into the meridian of the dumb door like a flood.

Hu Man'er felt a burst of warmth on his body, and he was extremely comfortable.

But what he didn't know was that the sky outside the inn was still clear at this time, and after a while, a dark cloud gathered. It's like a huge black quilt squeezing the earth. Even the surrounding air is starting to thin out. It gives people a feeling of depression that wants to scream.

Then a gap appeared in the center of the dark cloud, and a dazzling golden light shone down from the gap. Penetrated the roof and shrouded Hu Man'er, who was meditating with his eyes closed.

Almost everyone who could see it stopped to watch this once-in-a-lifetime spectacle. Only Hu Man'er didn't know it, and he still enjoyed the satisfaction brought to him by the broken mirror.

Gong Baojiu stood in front of the window and looked at this scene, frowning slightly. Qing'er stood behind her obediently and was not attracted by this spectacle, but all her eyes fell on her husband.

Visions are often short-lived, only to be restored in a matter of moments. The dark clouds gathered and dispersed like countless ant colonies. Next is the warm sun and clear sky.

Hu Man'er slowly opened her eyes, showing a hint of joy in her eyes. Just as he was about to get up, he heard the door slam and be pushed open. Zhang Hu rushed to Hu Man'er and panted and said, "Little ...... Uncle Xiao, you ...... Don't you see the vision of Fang Cai? It's ...... It's just weird. ”

Hu Man'er stretched out his hand and patted Zhang Hu's head and scolded: "I was chased by a wolf, I ran so quickly." What bullshit vision, I didn't see. ”

As he spoke, he got up and collapsed, walked to the table, poured a cup of herbal tea and handed it to Zhang Hu.

"Drink a quick sip and calm down, don't gasp for a while. It's really in response to the old saying, a martial artist, reckless. ”

Zhang Hu scratched his head in embarrassment and grinned. Just as he was about to reach out to pick up the herbal tea handed over by Hu Man'er, he was suddenly startled. He said, "Uncle Xiao...... You...... How did you...... How?"

Hu Man'er forcibly stuffed the water into Zhang Hu's hand, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Whatever, it's not good to speak." That's right, Uncle Xiaoshi, I'm broken again. ”

It's just that Hu Man'er didn't know that it was against heaven for him to forcibly break the mirror with the help of external forces without understanding the rules of the world. Fang Cai's vision is the peep of the Heavenly Dao.

That is, his luck is the same, if he is not careful, he will go mad and never recover.

After finishing speaking, he pushed Zhang Hu away and wanted to go out for a walk, but suddenly seemed to remember something, and hurriedly turned his head and asked Zhang Hu.

"Zhang Hu, save me that day, have you ever seen my sword?"

Zhang Hu had just drunk the tea in his mouth and had not yet swallowed Hu Man'er's words, when a mouthful of water was stuck in his throat, Zhang Hu, who was choking, coughed violently.

After a while, he spoke back to Hu Man'er's words: "That...... The sword was retrieved, but ......"

"But what is it, go and fetch it for me, my sword is a treasure given to me by my master, and I can't lose it. Besides, the sword seems to be of some use to me. Hu Man'er didn't notice the strangeness in Zhang Hu's words.

Zhang Hu shook his head and said no more, got up and walked out, and after a short time, he took the wooden box back and put it on the desk in front of Hu Man'er.

Hu Man'er was just about to reach out and call the wooden box, but Zhang Hu held the wooden box and said, "Little uncle, don't worry. ”

"What's the hurry? How strange are you talking today? After speaking, he pushed Zhang Hu away and called the wooden box.

It's just that when she saw the blue water, Hu Man'er was stunned. Because the blue water sword at this time has a dazzling appearance that has no past. Just lying quietly in the wooden box, the slender sword body was already full of cracks and chips. There was also a long black knife lying next to the Bishui Sword, which was as dilapidated as Bishui.

Hu Man'er looked at the sword, then at Zhang Hu, and suddenly took a few steps back and pointed at the blue water sword and asked, "What's going on?"

"Uncle Junior, when we found you that day, these two weapons were lying next to you, and they had already become like this. We don't know exactly what's going on. Seeing Hu Man'er's surprised appearance, Zhang Hu hurriedly explained.

Hu Man'er stepped forward and carefully picked up the blue water sword and looked at it carefully for a long time, and found that it was indeed no longer the same as before. Now it is quietly held in Hu Man'er's hand like broken iron, and there is no sword qi revealed.

After a while, Hu Man'er stroked the sword body, put the sword back into the sword box, and picked up the black knife, which was also full of scars, and looked at it for a long time, but finally couldn't see anything unusual, so he had to put it back in the sword box.

Hu Man'er let out a long sigh, with a hint of sadness on her face. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, a familiar voice came from behind him: "This sword can be cultivated." ”

Hu Man'er suddenly turned his head and saw Gong Baojiu looking at him with a smile, followed by a girl in a cyan skirt.

"Brother Gong, what did you just say? This sword ...... And saved?" asked Hu Man'er anxiously holding Gong Baojiu's two arms.

"Brother Hu, don't worry, I mean I can cultivate, but it's not me who cultivates, I don't have that ability. It's just that I know where to fix it, and I can introduce you to it. But...... A bit far. Gong Baojiu's pinched shoulder hurt a little, and he hurriedly broke free.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. As long as it can be repaired, even if it is the end of the earth, I am willing to go, whether the palace brother can help guide the way, the younger brother is grateful. Hu Man'er knew that she was a little out of shape, and scratched her head in embarrassment and replied.

Gong Baojiu nodded.

"Yes, yes, but I heard that you have some things to do when you go down the mountain this time, so if you delay your trip...... That's not good. ”

Only then did Hu Man'er realize that he really had a task as a teacher, which made it difficult for Hu Man'er.

At this time, another voice came from the door, and said slowly: "You go, let's go separately for the time being, let's take a few steps ahead and go to the Forgotten Worry Gorge, you and the palace brother will go to repair the sword, and when you repair it, you can join us soon." ”

Hu Man'er and Gong Baojiu turned their heads to look at the sound at the same time, and Zuo Liangqing leaned against the wooden door with his hands on his chest.

Hu Man'er stretched out his hand and patted his head, and sighed: "Why didn't I think of it? It turns out that the more beautiful the person, the smarter he is." ”

Zuo Liangqing glanced at Hu Man'er and did not refute him.

It's just that Hu Man'er snorted boringly: "It's a lump of wood, I can't make any jokes." ”

Then he turned his head to Gong Baojiu and said, "Brother Gong, where is this place you are talking about?"

Gong Baojiu pointed to the guide: "About five hundred miles to the south, there is a mountain, and the mountain is a special product of a hard texture, which is an excellent material for forging swords. And there is a valley at the bottom of the mountain, and there is a mountain villa in the valley, called Mingjian Villa. For generations, there has been a group of people living in Zhuangzhong, who make a living by forging swords, and they are also the best swordsmiths in the world. It is said that this mountain village has been passed down for thousands of years, and this mountain is also named after it, and it is called Sword Mountain. Nowadays, almost all the famous swords that can be called today come from there, including your clear water. That's why I guessed that since I can forge a sword, I should be able to cultivate it. ”

"To the south? Forget about the north. Wouldn't that be the opposite?" Hu Man'er muttered as he looked south. But then he shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Now that it has been said, Hu Man'er no longer hesitates, and immediately called everyone to discuss, of course everyone has no objection.

When there was no objection, everyone went back to their rooms to pack their bags. After all, something has happened recently, and it has been delayed a lot. The task of the teacher is child's play.

After packing up, the group drove their horses to the city gate, Hu Man'er stopped his horse and hugged his fists and saluted loudly, shouting: "Whether the sword repair is successful or not, I will rush back to join you and others." You need to be careful about this investigation, so take care. ”

After saying that, Gong Baojiu, Xiaoqing, and Hu Man'er turned the horse's head in unison, clamped the horse's belly between their legs, and shouted "drive". Then it was dusted away.

It's just that no one noticed that Lu Yanran looked at Gong Baojiu's departing figure, and a trace of loneliness flashed in her eyes, just fleeting.
