"Auntie, of course I want to. ”

Xia Xijun heard this: "It's just that now that the master and the master are gone, who else wants to teach me?"

Fan Ruyin heard a trace of sadness in Xia Xijun's tone, so she pulled him closer to her and comforted him earnestly: "Your master and sister are gone, but there is still a sister, as long as you are willing, your aunt can teach you, but there is a condition for your aunt, if you can agree, then from today on, your aunt will start teaching you." ”

When Xia Xijun heard this, his face was solemn, and he nodded heavily: "As long as my aunt is willing to teach me, my aunt will agree unconditionally to any conditions." ”

"Well, that's good. ”

Fan Ruyin said: " One, although the master taught you swordsmanship, but not your master, your master is still Ye Suifeng, never forget, and don't mention it to outsiders, so as not to attract the disaster of killing, two, since you are my junior brother's apprentice, then you must listen to the words of my aunt and master, from now on, you must treat this place as your home, but also take the protection of this place as your mission, three, when learning swordsmanship, you will definitely encounter a lot of difficulties, so, you are not allowed to give up halfway, you must persevere, only unremitting efforts, you may have the day of the completion of swordsmanship, become a man who stands up to the sky, you can understand？”

"Understood. ”

Xia Xijun said: "In the future, I will definitely become a person like Master, and I will definitely listen carefully to the words of my aunt and master." ”

"Well, that's good, I want you to do what you say. ”

Fan Ruyin nodded and said, "Let's go, my aunt will take you to a place first." ”

"Good. ”

After the two finished speaking, Fan Ruyin confessed according to Hua Rufeng, and took him to temper his mind first, and there is only one place where Luoshen Peak is specially used to temper the disciples' minds, and this place is not for all disciples to enter, because the disciples who can enter are all talented and intelligent, extremely talented, and people with excellent roots, therefore, within this hundred years, there are very few people who are qualified to enter it, and after entering, all of them are the top masters in the Central Plains martial arts, such as Fan Ruyin and Ye Suifeng.

And when Hua Rufeng left Luoshen Peak, he directly arranged for Fan Ruyin to take Xia Xijun into this place, so it was easy to see how much he attached great importance to it, and it was not at all as light as Hua Rufeng said that he just liked it.

After a stick of incense, Fan Ruyin took Xia Xijun to a cave on the right side of Luoshen Peak, this cave looks ordinary, but in fact it hides a mystery, and ordinary people can't see the difference.

"Senior Aunt, where is this?" Xia Xijun asked as he looked around.

Fan Ruyin said: "This is the forbidden place of Luoshen Peak" marrow washing cave, ordinary people are not allowed to enter, your master likes you very much, I hope you can temper your mind here, and then, take you to the Tibetan Sword Valley to learn advanced swordsmanship, you have to come on." ”

After Fan Ruyin finished speaking, he continued to move forward with the faint light that appeared in the cave, and Xia Xijun hurriedly followed when he saw this, and after moving forward for a while, he finally passed through the hole.

Xia Xijun followed Fan Ruyin out of the cave, the first thing he heard was the sound of gurgling water from not far away, and the melodious birdsong, what he smelled was the faint fragrance of grass and flowers wafting from the not dense woods in front of him, and what he saw was the scenery like a paradise, mountains, flowing water, waterfalls, flowers and plants, birds and strange-shaped peaks and stones.

"Wow, auntie, it's so beautiful here!"

Xia Xijun looked at it for a while, and couldn't help but praise softly.

"Well, it's beautiful here, but don't forget what you're here for. ”

When Fan Ruyin heard this, his tone suddenly became cold and said, "Let's go, follow me to the hole behind the waterfall." ”

Seeing this, Xia Xijun felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on his heart, so he had to respond obediently: "Okay, senior aunt." ”

As soon as the voice fell, Xia Xijun hurriedly followed, and then, following Fan Ruyin's footsteps, cautiously walked around the edge of the hole.

After coming to the cave behind the waterfall, Fan Ruyin raised her right hand, her face was solemn, and she pointed to the cave walls on the left and right sides of the cave and said, "Jun'er, do you see the words and patterns on the wall?"

Xia Xijun looked in the direction pointed by Fan Ruyin and replied, "See, senior aunt." ”

"Okay, then do you understand what is written on it?" Van Ruyin asked again.

"This ...... I really don't know. Xia Xijun thought about it and continued.

"Okay, my aunt told you. ”

Fan Ruyin said: " In addition to completing the daily tasks I assigned to you in this cave, the main thing is to practice the words and patterns engraved by your master on the cave wall, maybe, you don't understand those words, but you should still be able to understand the patterns, so every day, as long as you follow the gourd to draw the scoop and do it, when you are tired, you go to the waterhole under this waterfall to soothe your shins, and your aunt will come to see you every seven days, you can understand？”

As soon as Fanruyin's voice fell, Xia Xijun nodded and replied, "Well, I understand." ”

Fan Ruyin said: "Okay, you do one thing first in the past seven days, that is, go to the bamboo forest in front of you to cut bamboo, the number of 10,000, each pile of 100, I will personally see it at that time, in addition, the tools are in this hole, you can find it yourself." ”

"Yes, auntie. ”

"Good. ”

Fan Ruyin nodded and said: "In addition, I will ask Chunxiang and them to send you food every day, you don't have to worry, it's just that the next days will be a little difficult, you must persevere, don't be disappointed by my aunt and father-in-law." ”

"Aunt don't worry, Jun'er will stick to the end. ”

When Fan Ruyin heard this, she bowed slightly, put her hands on Xia Xijun's shoulders and said, "Okay, then the senior aunt will leave first, and I will come to see you in seven days." ”

Xia Xijun looked at Fan Ruyin's figure gradually moving away, the tip of his nose couldn't help but be sore, and a trace of loneliness and loneliness couldn't help but come to his heart, but he had no way to change the current status quo, so the figure of Fan Ruyin disappeared, so he slowly turned around and looked up and down carefully in this cave.

After a while, he found a wooden bed in the innermost part of the cave, and a set of worn quilts was spread on the wooden bed, and he gently patted on it, and the thick dust splashed in all directions.

"Wow, why is the dust so thick, there must have been no one here in a long time. ”

Xia Xijun said to himself while tidying up: "I don't know if the master has been in retreat and cultivated here at that time. ”

"My aunt wants me to cut 10,000 bamboos a week, but isn't that more than 1,400 a day?"

Xia Xijun continued to think: "This is too much, I don't know if I can finish it, alas, whatever, let's clean it up today and rest and rest." ”
