Chapter 24: Flying Swords
When Gu Cheng left the deacon's hall, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon
The moon and stars were shrouded in clouds and mist, and the sky was already dark.
Gu Cheng stood on the high jade steps of the deacon's hall, looking down at the vast white snow below.
Many years ago, she also stood on the top of the TV tower and told her friends about her academic difficulties, but now she has really been separated from each other, and even the figures of many friends are blurred with her memory.
"The young man doesn't know the taste of sorrow, he falls in love with the floor, and he says sorrow for the new word, and now he tastes the taste of sorrow, and he wants to say goodbye. ”
She really understood the bitterness and hardship in this sentence, but in this other world, everything must rely on herself.
Gu Cheng clenched her fists, didn't say anything all the way, and walked back to the New Life Hospital.
As soon as I walked into the new life hospital, I saw the two sisters of the Xu family, who were standing at the gate of the courtyard with anxious expressions.
"Gu Cheng, why are you here?" Xu Mingzhu interjected, suspicious.
"Didn't you meet Brother Chen Ping?" Xu Mingshu said weakly to Gu Cheng with an innocent face, her fair face was slightly red by the cold wind.
"No, I went to class in the morning, and when I came back in the afternoon, I happened to meet Uncle Ji Xiao, and he asked me to go to the Refining Weapon Peak, what's wrong?" Gu Cheng said with a blank expression.
"That's nothing, let's go, stand here and get in the way. Xu Mingzhu heard Gu Cheng mention that the arrogance on Ji Xiao's face was reduced a little, and urged her.
Gu Cheng also walked slowly as usual, bypassing the two sisters and walking towards his room.
Just as she was about to walk into the room, Xu Mingshu's eyes swept a faint drop of blood on the corner of her clothes, her pupils shrank, and she shouted, "Gu Cheng, wait a minute." ”
Gu Cheng didn't realize it, and walked into the house quickly, as for the two sisters of the Xu family, they could only shout outside, anyway, with the cultivation of the two of them, they couldn't break the ban of Uncle Yu.
Gu Cheng went back to the house to rest for three days, and re-realized the exercises, after all the things of this day, she had a new understanding of the exercises, and her mood was much more stable than before.
The surging unwillingness in her heart also turned into an unprecedented passion for cultivation.
After entering the meditation, she felt that the speed of cultivation was indeed much faster than before.
Whether it is the spring returning to the earth, or the summer cicadas singing, or the wild geese flying south, these have nothing to do with Gu Cheng, she just sits quietly in the room, absorbing the aura of heaven and earth into herself, and letting the aura circulate in circles between the meridians and the dantian.
One Sunday, another Sunday.
With the accumulation of aura, her cultivation is also increasing.
Since there was no obstacle in the state of mind, the second layer of qi refining broke through.
It's winter again, and snow is falling from the sky.
On this day, Gu Cheng also heard a "bang" in his body, and the third layer of qi refining also broke through.
Gu Cheng estimated that it had been about four months since she last took Bigu Dan.
She closed her eyes again and stabilized her cultivation.
After more than half a month, Gu Cheng's cultivation had steadily stayed above the third layer of qi refining.
Gu Cheng glanced at the warm winter sun outside the window and said goodbye to the small room she had moored for more than a year.
Pushing open the door and walking out, Gu Cheng didn't take two steps, he heard a "bang", and a small room on the southwest side of the courtyard was also pushed open, Xu Mingzhu ran out of the house, standing in front of Gu Cheng, looking at Gu Cheng with resentful eyes.
"Senior Sister Xu, is there something wrong?" Gu Cheng said loudly.
"Gu Cheng, you mortal who started later, who is called junior sister, return me Brother Chen Ping, I will fight with you. Xu Mingzhu said and took out the whip and threw it at Gu Cheng.
Gu Cheng looked at her with amusement, her figure flashed quickly, and she moved two meters to the right, easily avoiding her attack.
The spiritual power gathered on the soles of his feet, and he ran out of the yard quickly.
Xu Mingzhu's cultivation is still at the second level of qi refining, and she is barely long, and she is about to become a miscellaneous servant, and there are many ways to deal with her at that time.
She won't fight with someone like Xu Mingzhu who has no future, and she can't hurt her in front of the eyes of the New Life Academy, Xu Mingzhu will kill her again.
Gu Cheng ran all the way into the deacon's hall.
After the long case that Deacon Song usually sits, there was a female uncle.
She sat lazily behind the long case with her eyes down, her chin in her left hand, and the fingers of her right hand tapped the table top of the long case.
Gu Cheng stepped forward and greeted the female uncle: "Hello uncle, do you know where Uncle Song went?"
"Deacon Song is not here, he has taken an urgent mission and left the sect, do you have anything to do with him?"
The female uncle raised her eyes to look at Gu Cheng, and there seemed to be a bright water in her eyes, which was really bright.
Gu Cheng was stunned by the look, and sighed in his heart: "What beautiful eyes." And he muttered.
When the female uncle heard this, she raised her eyebrows lightly, and then her lips hooked slightly, and she smiled.
"I've broken through the third layer of qi refining, so I'll find Uncle Song to record my cultivation. Gu Cheng came to his senses.
After a pause, he continued: "Because I did Uncle Ji Xiao a little favor and was brought into the sect by him, I didn't climb the heart ladder, and Uncle Song said that he would take me to climb with the new disciples."
So I want to ask Uncle Shi, when will the new disciple join the sect, I will also go to the ladder. ”
The female uncle frowned when she heard this, and asked Gu Cheng, "Then what kind of exercises are you practicing?"
"It's the Ten Thousand Yuan Sword Sect's Qi Refining Technique. Gu Cheng replied.
The female uncle stood up suddenly, slapped the long case with her right hand, and shouted: "Ji Xiao, this kid, what nonsense!"
The long case, which looked extremely solid, instantly cracked out of the cracks and shattered into a pile of stones.
Gu Cheng was so frightened by his uncle that he said in his heart: "He is worthy of being a disciple of the Sword Sect, and this temper is also quite the style of the Sword Sect." ”
The people in the hall also turned their heads when they heard the loud cheers and looked at Gu Cheng and the others.
The female uncle's chin was slightly raised, and she turned her eyes to scan the people who were looking at her.
After everyone in the hall saw the appearance of the beautiful uncle, they turned their heads one after another, and they were busy with their own things, but no one said anything.
A middle-aged monk in his fifties and sixties dressed in black ran out of the back room and said to the female uncle, "Uncle Qingshuang, what's the matter with you? With that, he handed her a piece of jade paper.
Senior Uncle Qingshuang took the jade note and said angrily: "It's not Ji Xiao's kid, this little nephew didn't wait for the heart ladder to let the family practice the Ten Thousand Yuan Sword Sect method, and he was not afraid that the little nephew would go crazy." ”
The middle-aged monk in black suddenly said: "I know that Deacon Song has entrusted me with the affairs of this master and nephew, Uncle Ji Xiao has always been like this, and Uncle Ji doesn't need to be so indignant." ”
The anger on Uncle Qingshuang's face disappeared a little.
Only then did the black-clothed deacon look at Uncle Qingshuang and said cautiously, "This is the long case of Jin Jingyan?"
Uncle Qingshuang waved his hand arrogantly and said: "It's just a little golden crystal rock, it's also worth mentioning, I'll go to Cangcui Mountain to pick it." With that, he turned around and ran out of the main hall, and Edgeworth flew away.
"That's the territory of the Yunlin Sect!" the black-clothed deacon shouted at the back of this Qing Shuang's uncle.
Uncle Qingshuang had already run out of the palace gate and disappeared.
The black-clothed deacon covered his forehead and sighed, "What kind of temperament is this?" ”
After a few breaths, he looked at Gu Cheng and said, "My nephew will come to the deacon's hall to look for me on the 20th of next month, I will take you up the ladder, what else is there to do with my nephew?"
"Uncle Lao helped me record my cultivation, and I broke through the third layer of qi refining. Gu Cheng said and handed the disciple card to the black-clothed deacon.
The black-clothed deacon took the disciple card and took out a dark green jade card to burn it
He handed it to her and said, "If you break through the third layer of qi refining in five years, you can enter the outer gate, and I will change the disciple card for you." ”
"Wait a minute, I'll get you the basic spell and the sect's sword. With that, he turned and went to the back room.
After waiting in place for a while, the black-clad deacon returned and handed her a thick book and a sword.
Gu Cheng took it, his hand sank, these two items are not light.
On the top of the book is written "The Basic Spell of the Ten Thousand Yuan Sword Sect", the sword body is silver, and the handle is black.
Gu Cheng held the hilt of the sword and flipped the sword body, and the silver light circulating on the sword body shook into her eyes.
"It's a good sword. Gu Cheng touched the sword body and sighed.
"This is an attributeless flying sword, and the sword body is made of the silver star stone unique to the sect. The black-clad deacon explained.
"There is a matching field and a practice hall at the outer gate, and there will be senior brothers and uncles to guide you wherever you go. If you want to use spells, you should practice them by yourself according to the book. There are also special classes for guiding spells at the outer gate, so you can listen to them yourself. There is also a deacon hall at the outer gate, and there will be a deacon uncle who will assign you a cave house, so just ask if you have any questions. ”
