In the summer season after the summer season, the ancestor Xu Lin went down the mountain to the foot of the mountain to break the temple before seeing two apprentices, first saw Xie Lu, to this female disciple who should be from a good family background, Xu Lin really didn't know what to say, and finally stayed in front of the broken temple for a long time, said something not salty or light, Xu Lin turned his head to look for Liu Yibai, and Xie Lu, who had not spoken from beginning to end, looked indifferent.

In the broken temple, Liu Yibai first dragged out a jar of wine and threw it to his master, and then dragged out another jar of wine from under his statue, and he didn't pay attention to it, so he sat on the stone platform in front of the statue, causing a lot of dust.

Xu Xiao said angrily: "Bring a bowl!"

Liu Yibai reluctantly threw out a small wine bowl from under the statue.

Xu Lin wiped his cuffs indiscriminately, then poured a bowl of wine, took a sip, and scolded: "Liu Yibai, you really know how to respect teachers!"

Liu Yibai shrunk her neck and said as a matter of course: "You don't drink much, good wine is for you to drink, it's a waste." ”

Xu Xiao snorted coldly, noncommittal, just drank the remaining half of the bowl of wine in one go, and then looked at Liu Yibai silently.

Liu Yibai was so frightened by the old ancestor that he touched his cheeks, and said indifferently: "Okay, I've died once anyway, and now it's a real farewell to this mountain and river, what's the big deal, what's the matter, I can see it, you are still reluctant?"

Xu Lian's expression was gloomy, this was the first time that this old man, who had always been strong, had shown such emotions in front of his disciples.

Liu Yibai drank several sips of wine, and unconsciously touched the hilt of the weed on his waist.

Xu Lin sighed, "The sword back then, the teacher was indeed for you, although according to you, it seems that the sword came out or not, it doesn't matter, but in fact, over the years, the bottom of the teacher's heart is very uncomfortable." ”

Liu Yibai smacked his lips, "No one complains about you, your skills are not as good as others, and if you die, you will die." It's you, who don't hesitate to spend these cultivation to hang the three of us, is it possible that you can still make us hate you?"

Xu was silent.

Liu Yibai put down the wine jar, looked at the statue behind him, walked a few steps, and came to the side of the ancestor Xu Lian, and he stood side by side, then looked at it a few times, and said with some surprise: "Hey, I remember that you used to be a lot taller than me, why are you short?"

Xu Lin showed a hint of a smile, patted his head, and scolded: "Clean nonsense." ”

Liu Yibai didn't care, but always smiled happily: "You can carry a mountain alone, can you not press you to the point where you can't stand up straight?"

Xu Lin rubbed this guy's head, just poured another bowl of wine, and this time drank happily.

In fact, the three people in the broken temple at the foot of the mountain, Liu Yibai, who is dominated by sword energy, is the disciple who is the least of his temperament, the senior brother Xi Chunan grew up in the mountains since he was a child, with a quiet temperament, and he is not fast in the way of the sword, but it is extremely stable, this kind of swordsman will be very relieved no matter who he looks at, Xie Lu is all about the way of the sword, and he is naturally suitable for practicing swords, Chen Sheng has the highest talent, and his temperament is the most cheerful, but it is not annoying, but Liu Yibai, although he has gone very far on the way of sword qi, but in fact, he has always been hanging, if it is not so, in fact, the achievement will be more than this, and this is it, so that Xu Lin actually hates iron and steelAfter that incident, Xu Lin killed the Taoist monk with a sword, cutting off the opportunity to become a sword immortal, and these three people had to attach themselves to this statue, the relationship between Liu Yibai and Xu Lin was very delicate, and the estrangement between the two became more and more, the ancestor Xu Lin lived on the mountain for a long time, and Liu Yibai and the three settled at the foot of the mountain.

Now the two of them are opening their hearts, which can be regarded as dispelling the last trace of estrangement between the two. But whether it was too late, neither of them thought about it, nor did they say it.

Finally, when the old man was about to turn his head and walk out of the broken temple, Liu Yibai suddenly called out to him.

Xu Lin turned his head, Liu Yibai frowned and said: "You have to let Fuyao know that his Senior Uncle Liu didn't give him the sword at his waist because he was stingy, compared to the junior sister and senior brother, my Liu Yibai's attention to the sword may be the highest." ”

Xu Lin smiled and shook his head, "When will you Liu Yibai care about these things?"

Liu Yibai said with annoyance: "Up to now, I am really worried that he will become a figure like Chao Qingqiu in the future, and Chen Sheng will definitely mention it when the time comes, and the junior sister and senior brother are also indispensable, in case it is because I didn't give him the sword, he won't mention my name, then it's really a big fucking loss." ”

Xu Lin was a little speechless, but he felt very good.

After coming to the open space outside the broken temple, Ye Shengge, who relied on the Taoist seed who did not leave, has been staying in front of the broken temple these days, and he is nowhere to be seen at night, but tomorrow he will almost always be next to the big bluestone, looking at the peach blossom she planted.

And Li Fuyao was sitting cross-legged on the Wujian in the open space in the distance, perhaps because he was not very happy with this Dao species, so he kept the distance far away.

Xu Lin first stood beside Ye Shengge for a while, and looked at this Dao seed several times, after all, it is the future of Liangxi Shen Xieshan Mountain, and there have been rumors in the mountains and rivers over the years about how powerful this Dao seed is, which makes Xu Lin a little curious, but after looking at it a few times, Ye Shengge didn't pay attention to him, and he didn't bother to say that no matter how down-and-out Jianshan was, he might not necessarily compete with this young girl.

After coming to Li Fuyao's side, Xu Xiao sat down beside him and said straight to the point: "Your master Chen Sheng, in fact, is my apprentice, and at the foot of Jiajian Mountain, your three uncles are all the disciples I have accepted in my life." ”

Li Fuyao was taken aback, opened his mouth, thinking about what he had seen and heard on the top of the mountaineering road before, he was a little surprised, but he couldn't say that he had any resentment, and after a moment of silence, he still called out to the master.

Xu Lin looked at Li Fuyao lovingly, and said with a calm smile: "Whether you go up the mountain that day, or you practice in Sword Mountain, in fact, it is all fate, and you can't force it, if you want to complain about the master's iron heart, it is up to you, but when I came to see you today, there are two things, the first thing is to tell you something about what I told your three uncles and your master in the past, and the second thing is that after talking about this, the two of us will compete with the sword once." What do you think?"

Li Fuyao nodded, and said with a straight face: "But it's up to the master to arrange." ”

Xu Xiao nodded, sat up straight, and said calmly: " I tell you that the truth of this world is not the original intention, what I want to say is just the method of practicing swords, the monks on the mountain in the three religions, Confucianism and Taoism are all regarded as the root of the seedlings, only our swordsmen, born in the rivers and lakes martial arts, back then it was just a mountain man who was rolling in the world, the sword ancestor brought the swordsman from the mountain to the mountain with his own strength, which is the gospel of the swordsman in the world, and then our swordsman lineage, among the monks on the mountain, the sword fairy combat power, the power of the three sects, the swordsman lineage, it has been maintained for thousands of years, six thousand years ago, our swordsman line has been beaten to such a situation, we do not regret it, but start all over again, but there are fewer swordsmen, and the inheritance will inevitably be lessSome of the good words are about to be lost, some things in the master's mind, while they are still there, I will tell you how much, how much you remember, anyway, this kind of thing, maybe you haven't heard of it, but you have stepped out of a better way, so if you don't remember, don't feel guilty. ”

Li Fuyao was noncommittal.

Xu Xiao continued: " Swordsmen practice swords, different from the practice of the monks of the three religions, if you really want to say, it can be regarded as full of fireworks, so the so-called monks of the three religions want to keep a pure heart away from the world, for our swordsmen, it is really meaningless, after you go down the mountain, if you can go to those rivers and lakes to walk on a trip, in fact, it is also excellent, a touch of fireworks, may not be as good as retreat to practice swords, all kinds of miscellaneous things in the world, don't be afraid, meet it, go to experience and feel, it is not a bad thing to have a sword heart, your Uncle Liu came out of the rivers and lakes back then, and achieved the current situation, is it possible that the experience of the rivers and lakes was his stumbling block, according to the masterNot necessarily. ”

Li Fu shook his brows and stretched his brows, and asked softly, "Master, if you encounter something that you can't decide and make your heart upset, won't it affect your sword heart?"

Xu Xiao asked rhetorically: "Could it be that the sword immortals in this world can't encounter something that makes people feel bored?"

Li Fuyao smiled, but he understood this word.

Xu Lin smiled and nodded, "There are too many difficult things in the world, some things can't tell right from wrong, and some can't see black and white, if you encounter it, how do you choose?"

Li Fuyao thought for a while and shook his head, "Fuyao doesn't know." ”

Xu Lin pointed to the two swords on his lap, and the meaning was obvious.

Li Fuyao asked tentatively, "A sword to decide?"

Xu Xiao shook his head and pointed to his chest.

Li Fuyao nodded.

Xu Lin nodded with satisfaction, "It's hard not to do a few wrong things in the world, if you don't want to choose because you made a wrong choice, that's a real coward." ”

Li Fuyao said with a straight face: "Fuyao has been taught." ”

Xu Lin smiled and nodded, this time he began to seriously talk about the divergent paths that may be encountered in the way of the sword, talking about how to avoid how to cross the threshold, and finally the old ancestor smiled and talked about Chen Sheng, saying that it was his apprentice, this master of yours, after going up the mountain, he couldn't drag it, and he taught him several times that he didn't know how to converge, and then the two sword immortals who went to provoke the mountaineering road were beaten half to death by Lu Changyan's merciless sword, and then they were separated for a long time. It's just that he is naturally cheerful, and it is a matter of course for him to stay in one place for a short time, and finally leave Sword Mountain.

Li Fuyao talked to his master for a long time, and in the end, Xu Lin instructed him that the lantern he handed over to Li Fuyao before going down the mountain should be well kept, although it is not as good as the lantern that can see people's past and present lives, but it is always extraordinary, it is one of the few magic weapons on the mountain, and it has no effect on the enemy, but it is very useful to walk at night.

Li Fuyao naturally understood the deep meaning of these words, so he wrote them down very carefully.

Xu Xiao seemed to be very happy to be able to talk to Li Fuyao so much, so he didn't have any thoughts about swords for a while, just chattered a lot, if he was seen by others, he might really drop his jaw, when did the old ancestor be so talkative?

Finally, the old ancestor, who finally remembered what was going on, pointed to the two swords on Li Fuyao's lap and asked, "Which one do you use?"

Li Fu shook his smile, and instead of holding Qingsi, he held Xiaoxue.

The old ancestor was a little surprised, but he still didn't say anything, he just reached out and picked up the green silk, but before he pulled out the sheath, there were some cracks in the scabbard made of green bamboo, and the sword of the green silk was full of energy, and he didn't seem to like Xu Lin very much.

Xu Lian's expression remained unchanged, and he clenched the green silk.

Li Fuyao clenched Xiaoxue.

His meaning is very clear, the ancestors have not used green silk, and green silk is naturally rejected, and he is not handy with Xiaoxue, so it can be regarded as fair to a certain extent.

It's just that at the moment when Li Fuyao held Xiaoxue tightly, in front of the broken temple over there, Xie Lu had already walked out, followed by Liu Yibai, who was drinking, and the two leaned against the door and watched this side.

After the old ancestor Xu Lin took the sword, although he tried his best to keep his sword qi out of his body, that momentum still made Li Fuyao feel a little unstable.

Holding the green silk in his hand, Xu Xiao asked with a calm smile: "Just use the sword to fight the enemy, and stop at the point." ”

Li Fuyao nodded and responded with a good word.

So the two really wanted to start a sword competition at the foot of this sword mountain.

In the distance, Liu Yibai said in a stammering voice: "When did the old man personally feed the sword to others? This is the first time." ”

Xie Lu was also a little moved, she said in a low voice: "The old man has high hopes for this kid Fuyao, but I don't know if Fuyao will feel too much pressure?"

Liu Yibai tugged at the corners of her mouth, "Fuyao's temperament, even if it can be resisted, no matter how much pressure the old man gives, it is not a big deal." ”

Xie Lu said angrily: "You are very open-minded, and you are not your disciple anyway." ”

Liu Yibai chewed the grass root in his mouth and didn't say anything more.

And in the distance, Xu Lin and Li Fuyao's sword competition has begun, but there is a big gap between the realms of the two, and it is said that it is a sword competition, but it is not as good as the ancestor feeding Li Fuyao with a sword.

It's just that Li Fuyao, who has been practicing swords for more than two years, can still make people's eyes shine with occasional sword moves.

——

At the foot of the mountain, Xu Lin was feeding the sword for Li Fuyao, and in front of the sword mound, the old Confucian with the bookcase on his back was telling the young man in the sword mound the sage truth.

This made Wu Shanhe, who was in the sword mound, almost crazy.

After the old Confucian taught the truth, he began to read some sage articles casually, but he couldn't read the whole article, but he just thought of some fragments and sentences and read some, and when he couldn't remember, he changed to another one, in short, his mouth didn't stop, so that Wu Shanhe inside collapsed.

It's just that when Wu Shanhe was about to lose it, the old Confucian would stop for a moment and give him a moment to breathe, and finally he simply lost the book and asked with a smile: "Wu Xiaomu, do you think the old man will give you another story about rotten wood that cannot be carved and children cannot be taught." ”

There was a helpless sound from the sword mound, "Old man, I don't want to hear any more reason." ”

The old Confucian scolded angrily: "You know a fart, if you can really meditate on these truths, where is there still a little uncomfortable, you elm head, in vain the old man came to tell you this, maybe to say that the kid at the foot of the mountain is a hundred times stronger than you." ”

Wu Shanhe was speechless for a while, not knowing whether he didn't know what to say or said that he didn't want to pay attention to the old Confucian student.

The old Confucian gloated and said: "That old ancestor on your mountain is feeding the sword to that kid at the foot of the mountain at this moment, Wu Xiaomu, what do you think." ”

Wu Shanhe in the sword mound gritted his teeth, but still didn't say a word.

The old Confucian was in a good mood, and finally smiled and stopped talking.

However, Wu Shanhe quickly asked: "Old gentleman, the old ancestor went down the mountain just to feed the sword to that kid?"

The old Confucian pulled the corners of his mouth, "That's all." ”

Wu Shanhe's expression was gloomy.

It's just that the next moment, the old Confucian smiled calmly: "That kid is destined to go down the mountain, but you, Wu Shanhe, are highly expected by your ancestors, hoping that you can become the next ancestor of Sword Mountain." ”

Wu Shanhe was stunned and did not speak.

The old Confucian looked at the bottom of the mountain and said calmly: "After today, Sword Mountain has changed greatly. ”

——

The sword competition at the foot of the mountain quickly came to an end, and the old ancestor Xu Lin returned the sword to Li Fuyao, and said with a satisfied smile: "If you go down like this, the sword path in the world will one day come to an end by you." ”

Li Fuyao smiled bitterly, but did not refute.

Liu Yibai suddenly said very sadly: "Senior sister, I won't see you in the future." ”

Xie Lu rarely called out to Senior Brother in a soft voice, and then said softly: "You really don't want to shake this weed?"

Liu Yibai shook his head, "With a sword in hand, you can die well." ”

Xie Lu frowned and said, "This sentence is extremely nonsense. ”

This time, Liu Yibai didn't speak anymore, but his eyes were clear, and his sword aura was hidden.

When the old man tried his best to draw his sword, he would not leave his hand to shine on the two people in the temple, so he could only make a sword before the old man took out his sword.

This sword asks the viewer.

Xie Lu didn't have so many obsessions, he just looked at Li Fuyao, his eyes were full of nostalgia.

She really felt a little sorry for this child.

It's not just because he's a disciple of Chen Sheng.

Xu Lin looked at the broken temple and didn't say anything, and finally just waved his hand, then smiled at Li Fu and climbed the mountain again.

Along the way, Xu Lone's expression was very indifferent, as if he had seen everything in the world, and he was not surprised at all, and when he returned to Wenjianping and picked up the old thing, he suddenly burst out with a momentum, Xu Lonely's whole person was full of spirit, although he had white hair, but it seemed to be back to his youth.

And in the ruined temple at the foot of Sword Mountain, the only two remaining statues have the slightest crack.

The old Confucian sat in front of the sword mound and muttered a good sentence from a sage's article, "A gentleman is quick to speak and quick to act." ”

In front of the green lake at the foot of Menchen Mountain, there was a middle-aged man who stepped on this Menchen Mountain with a flat expression.
