Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Wooden Sword
Yun Xian had just sat up from the bed and found that the genius was bright. I used to get up early before, but now I can't sleep when I ask her to sleep. She got up and washed up, put on her clothes, pushed the door open, and walked out.
The entire floating jade mountain looked like it hadn't woken up, hazy and hidden in a light layer of mist. It was so quiet that I could only hear the sound of the waterfall in the distance, and even the birds had not yet woken up. She ran briskly downstairs, and suddenly remembered that her brother and master might be asleep, and tiptoed as she passed by their door, trying not to wake them.
Neither of them was actually sleeping.
In the huge Ling Xuguan, I saw a small figure running from here to there, and scurryed into the "messy building" in a puff of smoke. She came to the place where she put the book yesterday, moved the book to the window and continued to rummage, and finally she didn't know how many books she found, and suddenly she turned out a very thin booklet, which was clean and clean, except for the word "Qingxuan" written by the Taoist chief, there was no handwriting at all. She was overjoyed, and hurriedly opened it to see that the second page was only painted with a complicated pattern, and she didn't know what it meant. Turning it back, it's all blank.
Yun casually couldn't help but feel a little lost. She thought that this would be the Dao Master's own sword technique, and if she found it and showed it to him, he would be very happy. As a result, now I found this one, and I couldn't understand it horizontally and vertically, and I was frustrated, but I still put it back as it was.
However, what puzzled her was that this was not a sword book, so why was it placed in the middle of a pile of sword books? Could it be that she was still young and did not understand the mystery inside?
Thinking of this, she didn't stop doing it, pulled out the book and stuffed it into her arms, buried her head and continued to rummage, but suddenly heard a strange sound upstairs: "Poof!"
She was so startled that she almost tore the book in her hand. He held his breath and listened carefully to the upstairs.
The fourth floor was a place where some artifacts were placed, and she had caught a glimpse of it once, and then she didn't know it. The sound sounded like it was coming overhead, real, like something had fallen to the ground.
"Let's go. ”
It was another strange sound, which sounded like it was exploding in the ears of the clouds. She threw the book in her hand and stood up, and roared to herself with a bold word: "Who is it!"
Her method of emboldening was apparently ineffective, for she could hear the tremor in her voice. I don't think there will be anyone else coming in this building, could it be that the artifact on the fourth floor has become refined?
She shouted again, "Come out of here!" or I'll beat you!"
This time there was no strange noise, but there was a strong curiosity in her heart. After struggling in place for a while, he still couldn't resist his strong curiosity, so he first took out a piece of talisman paper and held it in his hand, and then tiptoed upstairs.
On the shelves on the fourth floor, all kinds of strange artifacts were placed, only a long box was lying on the ground, and the buckle had been opened, and it seemed that the strange sound came from it. Yun casually didn't dare to rush forward, so he only threw the rune paper in his hand into a ball.
The rune struck it impartially and bounced aside. The box didn't move, and there was no way to tell what was inside from the side. She felt that there was no way to do this, so she stepped forward lightly, and jerked the box open, and then jumped to the side as if there was some poisonous smoke to be released.
The box was still lying quietly on the ground, and inside was a wooden sword, in an ordinary style. It seemed to sense the cloud approaching at random, and suddenly stood up on its own and floated steadily in front of her.
"You, what are you doing, you go away......" Yun casually shuddered and stretched out a finger to push it aside, not expecting it to seem to have spirituality, stubbornly leaned over, rubbed her hand affectionately with the hilt of the sword, and motioned for her to take it over.
"Master, Master!" Of course she wouldn't do it, she turned around and ran away in fright, almost jumping down from the fourth floor, screaming so much that the entire Ling Xuguan could almost hear: "Master, help-"
As soon as the Taoist jumped down from the tree, he was coldly bumped into her arms, and just wanted to ask, "What's wrong," when he suddenly saw a wooden sword behind her chasing after him, he was relieved, and stretched out his fingertips and gently touched the body of the wooden sword.
"Yes. ”
The wind suddenly rose all around, and a sword qi swept along his fingertips, and was stopped in front of Shen Di. The Dao Leader gently held the wooden sword in his hand, lowered his head and tried to pull down the trembling cloud that was bound to him at will, but he didn't succeed.
"It seems that this wooden sword is related to you, apprentice, it is yours. ”
"I don't want it!" Yun's voice was still trembling, "It's terrible! It can move on its own! It's going to kill me!"
The Taoist chief laughed: "I made this sword myself, how could it want to kill you......?
When Yun casually heard that it was made by the Taoist Chief, he immediately put his mind at ease and stretched out his hand to take the wooden sword. Although it was made of wood, it was much lighter than the other swords, but it still felt a little heavy in her hand. Shen Di's eyes were sharp, and he saw it at a glance, and looked at the Taoist chief in an inquiring tone: "Sycamore wood?"
The Taoist chief nodded approvingly: "This piece of sycamore wood was still given to me by Zhedan, I thought about carving something, and then I made a wooden sword, but I just got it myself to pass the time." Sycamore wood is easy to give birth to spirituality, and after a period of time there, it is also a fate to recognize being the master at will. ”
Yun casually asked, "Can this sword cut vegetables?"
"Why not. The Taoist took the sword and swung it to the side casually, and a boulder on the cliff in the distance shattered in response to the sound and fell directly into the pool, making a loud sound like the sky cracking and the earth cracking, and the clouds were stunned.
"Still don't like it?"
"Yes, yes!" she immediately changed her words, nodded hurriedly, and held the sword firmly in her arms.
The Taoist chief was happy when he saw the clouds, so the corners of his mouth also hooked up a smile: "Since this is the case, everything has a spirit, you can choose a name." ”
"It's called Wangcai. She replied without thinking.
Puzzled, Shen Tu asked, "Isn't Wangcai the name of your chicken?"
Yun casually said sadly: "I was captured by Rong and my brother, it's quite delicious." I'm going to put my thoughts on this sword, and it's called Wangcai!"
"Good, good, prosperous, prosperous. Have you picked the swordsmanship you want to learn?"
As soon as the Taoist chief said this, she slapped her head suddenly: "I just thought about fighting wits and courage with this sword, but I actually forgot to pick a good one, no matter what, let's show the master the one I found before." ”
Just thinking about it, she took out the booklet she had found before that only had the name of the Taoist Leader written on the cover, and handed it to him: "I found this, Master, what is this?"
The Taoist took the booklet, his expression looked as puzzled as Yun Random: "This is what I wrote?" He turned the first page and looked at the strange pattern on it: "I don't remember I wrote this, what is it......"
He flipped it back, but all he found was blank. Shen Tu only felt that the pattern on it was very familiar, but he couldn't say it for a while, so he just said: "I seem to have seen it in a book in the underworld, wait for me to go back and find it." I always feel that it doesn't mean very well. ”
The Taoist chief really can't remember clearly, not to mention his age, he only picks out some important things to remember on weekdays, and forgets the others. Otherwise, after living for so long, the things in my mind would have been a mess a long time ago, and thinking about this thing is not too important.
The Taoist put the book away, and in a blink of an eye, he found that Yun was looking at him casually. So he smiled and said, "What's wrong?"
She said: "I don't like the ones in the 'Messy Building', I want the set of swordsmanship that Master usually uses." ”
The Taoist chief was a little embarrassed: "But I know how to use it in that building, I don't know which one I use on weekdays, so I grabbed it." ”
Yun casually felt that he had underestimated his master, so he had already known that he would let him teach them all, and shouted in his mouth: "Then I have to learn, I will learn whatever Master teaches, and I will work with Master to subdue demons and eliminate demons in the future!"
Hearing this, the Taoist chief nodded thoughtfully, and with a plan, he pointed to the hundreds of bluestone steps leading to the mountain gate: "Have you seen those steps?"
Yun casually turned his head to look at it and nodded.
"When you can run back and forth in the time of a pillar of incense, I will start teaching you, go. ”
Yun casually responded happily, and immediately raised his legs and rushed out, and the voice floated from afar: "Senior brother, light incense!"
She didn't know how many steps there were, but she only knew that it usually took half an hour to go down the mountain, and it was simply impractical to run in a pillar of incense. But she was so active that she had already guessed that this was the master exercising herself, so she didn't complain about being tired, but just did what she said, and at first she could see a figure shuttling left and right in the forest, and after a while, she ran away without a trace.
If this step is for the gods to run, it will not be a problem at all. However, Yun Xian would only be a little lucky, and after a short time, he was already tired and out of breath, and his legs were so sore that he couldn't walk at all, but this step seemed to be far from the end.
Once the Dao Master really starts to let his disciples learn something, he will not be as merciful as before. At first, he was worried that Yun would cry with him at will, but later found that this little girl was very obedient, so he relaxed his heart to "torture" her. Often, she couldn't climb when she ran down and climbed one day, and was directly carried back to the room by the gods, fell asleep, and climbed off the bed the next day, climbed out of the door, and climbed towards the mountain gate.
She sometimes remembered when she was in the General's Mansion and was forced to contact the rules of etiquette by Mama Xi. But at that time, I only felt tired and tired, which was completely different from the simple tiredness and joy now. To be precise, she lived a very fulfilling life, and many years later, looking back, the days when she practiced swords in Ling Xuguan were still the happiest and most carefree days of her life.
