Volume 1 The first foray into the rivers and lakes Chapter 15 The Sword Saint Sword Sutra

After a small turmoil, Yaoshan returned to its former peaceful state.

The four of them are still doing their own things every day as usual.

No, it's not all - for example, Xu Zhaonan's time to practice is another hour longer than usual.

Under the supervision of Bai Chujian and his own efforts, Xu Zhaonan's skill refinement is enough to be described as a thousand miles in a day.

Since Xu Zhaonan came back from that trip and told him that he would go down the mountain again on the eighth day of April next year, Bai Chujian changed the place where he read books every day to the place where Xu Zhaonan practiced swords.

Of course, Zhao Nan's skills are still shallow, and if he wants to go out alone, he naturally has to practice diligently, but his temperament is too jumpy, and someone needs to keep an eye on him.

Regarding what the senior sister said, Xu Zhaonan naturally didn't dare to refute it, the senior sister said that she had a bad temperament, so let's jump out, he didn't dare to talk back to the senior sister.

In Yaoshan, Gu Sihai occasionally joked with Xu Zhaonan, and Grandma Sun looked kind at any time, and the only person she was really afraid of was her senior sister.

As the so-called bystander is clear, the wise old man naturally sees some clues, but for some things, Grandma Sun actually agrees with it in her heart.

Only Gu Sihai, in addition to practicing swords every day, sighed more and more times.

Xu Zhaonan used the Liuhe swordsmanship again in front of his senior sister, above the blade of the sword, a faint blue light flashed, as if there was a sword qi that wanted to rush out of the sword, and after the merit, the sword was put into the sheath, and he stood still in place to carefully understand the subtlety of the sword move.

The warm sun shines on his body, and there is a hidden state of dust.

"Senior sister, how is it?" Xu Zhaonan said proudly, it was not easy to get a compliment from senior sister.

Bai Chujian nodded and commented, "The swordsmanship is good. ”

Sure enough, Xu Zhaonan heard it, the hidden meaning of good swordsmanship is naturally not good.

"Senior sister!"

Xu Zhaonan covered his head, and the dusty posture disappeared in an instant, and said helplessly: "I'm only sixteen this year, and I've only been cultivating for four years now, if I catch up with you so easily, then I'm not a monster." ”

Bai Chujian said lightly: "When that person was sixteen years old, he was already a first-class master. ”

Hearing that the senior sister wanted to compare herself with that person, I didn't know for a while whether to be speechless or proud, but after thinking about it, my cultivation path was originally aimed at surpassing that person, so I naturally wanted to compare him.

At that moment, Xu Zhaonan nodded and said firmly: "Senior sister, I understand." ”

When he was about to draw his sword out of the sheath and continue to practice swordsmanship, he heard Bai Chujian continue: "This Liuhe sword duel, only my father can do it in the world." ”

The implication is that if Xu Zhaonan goes out and uses this sword technique, and is seen by someone with a heart, he will immediately recognize his relationship with Bai Xifeng, which may cause unnecessary trouble.

Xu Zhaonan scratched his head and asked with a headache, "Then what about me using the Four Seas Sword Technique?"

The Four Seas Sword Technique is Gu Sihai's fame and mastery, and naturally he also taught it to Xu Zhaonan.

Bai Chujian shook his head and said: "The Four Seas Sword Technique, only Uncle Gu can do it in the world, and those who have a heart naturally know that Uncle Gu has followed his father for many years. ”

Xu Zhaonan was a little difficult, and muttered to himself in his heart, the Liuhe Sword must not be used, and the Four Seas Sword Technique cannot be used, but now I have only learned these two sets of sword techniques, if I can't use them, won't I have to be restrained when I fight against others in the future?

Bai Chujian stood up, handed the ancient book he was holding in his hand to Xu Zhaonan, and said, "Take it." ”

After Xu Zhaonan took it, he looked down and saw two big characters written on the cover of the book - "Sword Sutra", and asked with some confusion: "Senior sister, what is this?"

"A thousand years ago, the Sword Saint Neda wrote. ”

Bai Chujian said lightly: "Sword Saint Nie Danai is an immortal figure thousands of years ago, there are so many people in the world who use swords, but there is only one who can be called a sword saint!"

The once world-famous Sword Village was established by this sword saint.

It is rumored that in the later years of the Sword Saint, he wrote his life's work in the Sword Sutra and left it for the world, and then a sword shattered the void and walked away, and the world never saw this person again.

He became the first person to shatter the void since the history of this world.

Some people say that the rumors are exaggerated, it is just the speculation of ignorant people, there is no fairy world in the world, and where did the broken void come from, the sword saint just felt that the limit was approaching, so he found a no-man's land and died quietly.

In short, there is everything that is said in the rumors.

It wasn't until five hundred years later that Jianzhuang produced a peerless powerhouse known as the Mixed Yuan Sword Sect - Zong Wuyan, who swept the world and met a rare enemy.

Only then did the world feel that whether it was the Sword Saint Nie Da or the Mixed Yuan Sword Sect, they should all be born in accordance with the luck of the world, and they should come out once in five hundred years.

Now five hundred years have come, and it is rumored in the rivers and lakes that the sword armor Zuo Yuanfang and the sword god Bai Xifeng fought back then, in order to compete for the world's luck, grab the qualification for the ascension, and after the war, the sword armor won, and the world's luck has stepped into the realm of immortals, and the sword can be broken at any time to fly into the fairyland.

Some people also say that both the Mixed Yuan Sword Sect and the Sword Armor Zuo Yuanfang are the reincarnations of the former Sword Saints, reincarnated every five hundred years, bringing endless legends to the world.

But no matter what kind of rumors it is, it has further confirmed the saying that it conforms to the fortune of the world once every 500 years.

It's just that Zuo Yuanfang didn't break the void for a long time and flew away, I don't know if the rumors were wrong, or the fetters of the world kept the footsteps of the sword armor soaring.

There are some rumors that Xu Zhaonan has not heard, but some rumors he has heard, such as now, he only knows that there was a sword saint named Nie Da in this world thousands of years ago, but he doesn't know that the peerless name he left behind is "Sword Sutra".

Xu Zhaonan asked with some hesitation, "Is the Sword Saint a peerless scholar left, how can it be here with Senior Sister?"

Bai Chujian explained: "It is rumored in the rivers and lakes that before my father became famous, he consulted in Jianzhuang, which is true. ”

Seeing Xu Zhaonan looking at himself with a shocked face, he smiled faintly and continued: "Back then, my father asked Jianzhuang for advice from this sword scripture, and my father memorized him by heart, and later realized his own way, and Liuhe Sword became able to achieve the realm of grandmasters. ”

Xu Zhaonan asked: "In that rumor, Zuo Yuanfang also consulted Yu Jianzhuang, and he also read the Sword Sutra?"

Bai Chujian nodded and said, "Not bad." ”

Xu Zhaonan asked excitedly, "Can you achieve the realm of a grandmaster by learning the Sword Sutra?"

Bai Chujian shook his head and said, "No." ”

"Why?"

Xu Zhaonan was puzzled.

Bai Chujian explained: "Many disciples of the Sword Village who have reached the realm of the third grade can learn this sword scripture, but over the years, they have never been out of the realm of a grandmaster. ”

After a pause, when Xu Zhaonan was so anxious that he was about to ask, Bai Chujian smiled faintly and continued: "Everyone who cultivates this sword scripture will have different perceptions, and they can only understand it but not say it, so naturally not everyone can cultivate to the realm of a grandmaster. ”

Xu Zhaonan nodded, holding the Sword Sutra tightly in his hand, somewhat understanding and a little confused.

Bai Chujian stretched out his hand to straighten out Xu Zhaonan's clothes that were a little messy due to sword practice, and said while tidying up: "The Sword Saint left a legacy back then, and future generations of disciples are not allowed to keep this sword scripture privately, but anyone who studies can see it." Therefore, in this heaven and earth, not only the people of Jianzhuang know the tricks in the Sword Sutra, but there are not a few people who have practiced the Sword Sutra. If you want to make a move in the future, you can use the martial arts in the Sword Sutra to fight the enemy, so as not to show flaws. ”

"Hmm. ”

Xu Zhaonan nodded, and said with some hesitation: "But senior sister, there are only more than two months left before the eighth day of the fourth month, and if you get rid of the time to hurry, I'm afraid it will be too late to cultivate this sword scripture." ”

Bai Chujian sorted out Xu Zhaonan's clothes, took a step back, looked up and down, smiled with satisfaction, and then said: "It's not difficult, there are all kinds of sword moves in the Sword Sutra from basic sword moves to advanced and profound heart methods, you can know if you have seen it." ”

"Good. Xu Zhaonan agreed.

In the rest of the days, Xu Zhaonan began to practice this sword scripture, but the basic sword moves in the sword scripture are all good to say, Xu Zhaonan has been practicing sword for several years, so he is naturally able to catch it, but this sword trick has not been able to get the hang of it, and he has not advanced an inch.

Early this morning, after practicing the sword, Xu Zhaonan told Bai Chujian about the doubts in his heart.

After Bai Chu saw and heard this, he frowned and thought about it, when he cultivated this sword scripture back then, although he was not very fast, it took less than a month to get a first glimpse of the door.

And my father only spent more than a month back then.

Although Xu Zhaonan is not a martial arts genius, after all, his comprehension is not low and he is willing to work hard, plus two years of foundation building, the eight veins of the Qi Jing have already been opened, why is the progress of cultivating the Sword Sutra so slow.

But Bai Chujian also said a long time ago that everyone's process of cultivating the Sword Sutra is different, and outsiders can't help each other, and after thinking about it for a long time, they have to attribute it to Xu Zhaonan's lack of relationship with the Sword Sutra.

Hearing the reason of the senior sister, Xu Zhaonan was suddenly a little embarrassed, and he wanted to jump off the cliff and fall to his death.

I thought that when I practiced Uncle Gu's Four Seas Sword Technique and Master's Liuhe Sword Technique, I had never had such a situation, and my cultivation progress far exceeded that of my peers.

Bai Chu saw that he was depressed, and comforted him softly: "You are a beginner, and you didn't plan to let you practice this sword scripture at the beginning, but now that you have to go out, it is not good to use the swordsmanship of your father and Uncle Gu at will, so you will try to practice, since you have memorized all the sword moves in the sword scripture, then it is okay not to practice this sword method." ”

"That's all there is to it. ”

Having said that, it is inevitable that I will be depressed and a little depressed. Xu Zhaonan originally thought that his cultivation speed was far beyond his age, and he could achieve kendo as soon as possible and help his senior sister take revenge, but he didn't expect to be hit like this today.

Bai Chujian touched his forehead, sighed in his heart, and made an unexpected move.

I saw her open her arms, take a step forward, hug Xu Zhaonan, who was already taller than herself, in her arms, and gently patted his back to comfort him silently.

Xu Zhaonan, who was held in the arms of his senior sister, was stunned in place, standing stupidly, his mind blank.

"Bang Dang ......"

There was a crisp sound in the distance, and Gu Sihai, who was practicing the sword, suddenly leveled out with a move, and after stabbing the sword, maybe he was tired and didn't hold the sword, so he let go directly.

The sword, falling to the ground.

"Ahem......"

Grandma Sun, who was sweeping the floor, may have moved a little bigger, and the dust raised by her was sucked into her nose and choked and coughed.

Bai Chu let go of his hand like an electric shock, took a step back, and turned his head to look at the clouds in the distance, as if there were immortals passing by on the clouds, staring for a long time.

Xu Zhaonan, who was stunned, suddenly reacted to what had just happened, grinned and smirked, and then made a move that surprised everyone.

I saw him step forward, shorten the distance between the two, and then reach out with his long arm to hold Bai Chujian tightly in his arms, and shouted loudly in his ear: "Thank you, senior sister!"

On the side, Gu Sihai, who had just picked up the sword, knocked the sword off again.

Grandma Sun, who was coughing non-stop, coughed more and more loudly.

And also.

Bai Chujian's small and delicate earlobes were redder than the clouds in the sky.
