Qingyuan City is still the same as before, after Li Yangbai brought out some people, it was still strict, and when Li Yangbai pressed the Western Turks into the city, the guards in the city were already boiling, they thought that the fledgling Li Yangbai would kill a few Turks at most after the death of the little prince, but they didn't expect to take them all, in the past, they were not convinced by Li Yangbai, thinking that he could not hold the Qingyuan City, and the people who had a heart had disappeared at this time, and the battle was placed here, and they had to obey.

The old man listened to the many noisy voices in the barracks, and did not stop it, but smiled slightly, his ignorant grandson can now be on his own, presumably after his death, Qingyuan City can still be held in the hands of Li Yangbai.

Just when he was thinking about these things, Li Yangbai broke in with a spear, and no one heard it before he could hear it.

"Grandpa, look, the little prince's head is here, it's fresh......"

The old man ignored him, nor did he look at the head hanging on the spear, but looked at Xu Baichuan who came later, and sighed: "Heroes are young people, it must not be easy, hard work." ”

Xu Baichuan shook his head and said calmly: "It doesn't matter how hard it is, he is dead after all." ”

The old man nodded, didn't say more, turned around and took out a long box from the table, when Xu Baichuan took the sword out of the city, he had already prepared the box, there were two things in it, a sword called honeysuckle, a roster, if Xu Baichuan died there, then everything would be over, and now he came back alive with a human head, and the contents should also be handed over to him.

Although the old man has told a lot of lies and done many unfortunate things in his life, this one thing is not mixed with the slightest fake.

"Well, take it, the old man promised you what he promised you earlier is in the box. ”

Xu Baichuan stretched out his hand to take the box, did not open it immediately, looked at the old man with white hair, and asked calmly, "When can I leave?"

The old man laughed: "If you want to go, you can do it tonight, and we won't stop you, if you want to stay in the city a little longer, you can do it." ”

Xu Baichuan was silent for a moment and said softly: "I'll leave tomorrow." ”

The old man nodded, although he wanted to leave this rare sword cultivator and wanted Xu Baichuan to guard the city for his grandson, but he knew that this was just an illusion, Qing Yuancheng could bind Li Yangbai, but he couldn't bind Xu Baichuan, he was sure that as long as he opened his mouth and let Xu Baichuan stay, the next moment there would be a sword on his neck.

Xu Baichuan wants to go, then let him go, after sending out two things, Qingyuancheng and him have already formed a good fate, if Xu Baichuan becomes a great sword cultivator in the future, with this fate, Qingyuancheng can also be a lot safer, at least, if the Dali Emperor wants to use some means, he has to take care of three points.

Li Yangbai stood aside, opened his mouth to say something to save words, and swallowed hard, Xu Baichuan was the kind of sword genius in his eyes, and the only thing stored in his heart was swordsmanship, not to mention that he and Xu Baichuan had not known each other for a long time, far from being friends, at most they knew each other, even if they opened their mouths to keep them, it would be useless.

Xu Baichuan saw everything in his eyes, didn't say anything, said goodbye to the two, and walked out of the barracks.

......

Back to the house, Xu Baichuan opened the wooden box, and the first thing that caught his eye was a long sword, engraved with exquisite patterns, which was extremely gorgeous just by looking at it, and the word honeysuckle was engraved with a small seal at the top of the hilt.

Xu Baichuan frowned slightly, he had heard the old man say that this sword contained the truth of his predecessors, and it was very extraordinary, but when he looked at it, it was just like a beautifully shaped sword for honor guards.

Do you have to hold it?

Reach out and grasp the hilt of the sword.

And when he held the hilt of the sword, Honeysuckle suddenly exuded a fierce sword aura, and attacked Xu Baichuan with the sound of sword roars.

Xu Baichuan's face turned a little pale, he thought it was just an ordinary long sword, but he didn't expect that there was still sword qi left in this sword, although it was not a lot, it was enough for him to be difficult to resist.

After taking a deep breath, Xu Baichuan took out all the sword qi that had just recovered in the heart lake and instilled it into honeysuckle.

When he obtained the autumn wind before, the autumn wind did not resist, and naturally became his sword, and the sword qi of the previous sword master was still left in the body of the honeysuckle sword, if he did not take the initiative to let him be the master, then he could only be suppressed by force.

But soon, Xu Baichuan gave up on this idea.

I don't know what kind of person the last sword master on Honeysuckle is, but judging from the residual sword qi, he is definitely a profound sword cultivator, at least not less than Xinguang, if not, with the sword qi accumulated by Xu Baichuan's cultivation of ancient swordsmanship, he can definitely serve Honeysuckle.

Since the sword can't be subdued, let it be, Xu Baichuan didn't think too much, for him now, an autumn breeze is enough, even if he adds another one, he can only lie in the box and eat ashes, and he can't use the sword with both hands.

After putting Honeysuckle down, Xu Baichuan picked up the roster and opened it, filled in his name in the blank space, and carefully put it in his arms, this roster is much better for him than Honeysuckle, everything he is doing now is to get this roster, as for Honeysuckle, it was just the old man who forced it into him.

Xu Baichuan closed the box and put it aside, letting the honeysuckle sword emit sword qi, while he held the autumn wind and meditated cross-legged.

Cultivation is like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat, and if you want to go further in the way of the sword, you can't waste any time.

Nothing was said all night.

On the second day, Xu Baichuan packed up his own salute, and there were not too many things, a few changes of clothes and a bag of loose silver, but other than that, there was only an autumn breeze.

As for that honeysuckle, he thought about giving it to Li Yangbai, after all, the honeysuckle sword was unwilling to serve him as the sword master, and it was useless to hold it.

Therefore, when he handed the box to Li Yangbai, his face was as calm as waves, this sword should not belong to him in the first place, it is better to give it to Li Yangbai to try.

Li Yangbai scratched his head, didn't pick up the box, and looked at Xu Baichuan puzzled: "Didn't I give this honeysuckle to you, I'm afraid it's not good to take it back again." ”

Xu Baichuan shook his head and said calmly: "I tried it last night, this sword can't recognize me as the master, and it's useless to take it, haven't you always wanted to become a sword cultivator before, it's better to try." ”

Li Yangbai swallowed his saliva, looked at the box, his eyes were full of expectations, when he was young, he wanted to practice swords, but at that time his father and grandfather said that this sword was waiting for a destined person, and he could only practice guns, honestly guarding Qingyuan City, after so many years, he was also proficient in marksmanship, he thought that life would go on like this, but when he saw Xu Baichuan kill the little prince with a sword, the thought of wanting to practice swords in the past resounded in his heart.

Now that this sword is in front of him, should he take it?

Xu Baichuan saw his hesitation, and said with a slight mockery: "I really can't think clearly, you obviously want to practice swords, but because of other people's words, you can become a monk, but because you are afraid of the emperor's revenge, you are willing to be an ordinary person, where is your high-spirited spirit last night?"

Li Yangbai was silent, he lived in Qingyuan City since he was a child, living under the words of his parents and ancestors, what he wanted to do was not under his control, everything had to follow their opinions, he was a young man, he should have his own opinions.

"What if this sword doesn't recognize me?"

Xu Baichuan had a smile on his face, he knew that this guy's heart had been shaken, so he forcibly stuffed the box into his hand and said, "If you don't try, how can you know? ”

Li Yangbai whispered twice what Xu Baichuan had just said, and felt more and more reasonable, opened the box, and held the sword directly without much hesitation, and Honeysuckle did not stop it this time, but was unusually obedient, Li Yangbai was stunned, this sword did not emit sword qi like Xu Baichuan and what he said, could it be that Xu Baichuan was lying to him before?

Li Yangbai pulled the sword out of its sheath and danced up and down, tiger and tiger, quite disciplined, but in Xu Baichuan's eyes, it looked weird, it didn't seem like wielding a sword, but a spear.

Xu Baichuan looked at him and said calmly: "Li Yangbai, this sword has recognized you as the master, you must treat it well, the sword has the use of a sword, what is the matter if it is like a spear?"

Hearing Xu Baichuan's words as a sword cultivator, Li Yangbai stopped his movements, his old face turned red, and he forcibly argued: "Aren't swordsmanship and marksmanship all methods?

Xu Baichuan snorted coldly, held Qiu Feng in his hand, and swung a sword at will.

Suddenly, the sword roared.

There was a tree not far from the two of them, and a lot of snow fell on it, and after the sword qi swept away, it broke into two, and the snow on the tree also fell one after another, and a lot of it fell on Li Yangbai.

Putting away his sword and standing, looking at the embarrassed Li Yangbai, Xu Baichuan said calmly: "How is this sword compared to marksmanship?"

Li Yangbai swept the snow off his body with a sad face, and nodded hurriedly when he heard Xu Baichuan's words, for fear of another sword.

"Although there are great masters of marksmanship, there are very few famous ones, and the killing power is a few points weaker than that of ordinary monks, but the sword cultivation is not, the long sword is handed out within three feet, no matter who stands here, they can't help but tremble, this is the prestige of the sword cultivation for thousands of years. ”

Xu Baichuan said sonorously: "Although sword cultivation is scarce, but the prestige is still undiminished, if you meet a cultivator in the future, don't worry too much, if the sword qi is not born and flee alone, if the sword qi breeds, then the sword will be killed, the sword cultivation is too tribulation, you have to prepare." ”

Li Yangbai nodded, stroked the honeysuckle sword, suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly asked: "I heard that cultivators have to learn the exercises to refine qi, and sword cultivation should also be done, right?"

Xu Baichuan smiled, pointed to the honeysuckle sword and said: "Didn't you say that this sword left a good truth, how to do it, just ask this sword, and you will naturally know." ”

Now that the senior has passed away, he left Honeysuckle here, but it was not just as simple as leaving the sword, but also the swordsmanship of the exercises.

In fact, there are many swords left in this huge mountain and river, and the predecessors of sword cultivation know that their life span is short, so they want to leave the inheritance and sword together, waiting for future generations to inherit, which can be regarded as leaving a fire for sword cultivation, and sword cultivation can still survive under multiple blows, which is why so.

Honeysuckle must have stayed like this, perhaps because he sensed that Xu Baichuan already had sword qi in his body and an autumn wind, so he chose another person to pass on the fire.

Xu Baichuan's bags had already been carried on his back, and giving the box to Li Yangbai was the last thing he did in Qingyuan City, since Li Yangbai had already held the sword, there was nothing worth his nostalgia.

did not disturb Li Yangbai, who was squatting on the ground and pondering honeysuckle, Xu Baichuan walked slowly.

Leave Qingyuan City.
