Chapter Twenty-Seven: Too Much Deception
Zhanlu Mountain is located in the southeasternmost place of Zhongzhou, only a sea away from the boundless tree continent, and has always been the birthplace of the world's famous swords.
Although the sea is called the sea, in fact, it is only a slightly larger lake, and the non-in-quality scrapped weapons cast in the door of Zhanlu Mountain since the opening of the sect have been thrown into the lake, if someone takes a boat on this lake, you can see through the clear and visible lake water that the bottom of the lake is full of rusty swords covered with moss.
The swordsmen of the world also gave the lake a name, called the Sword Sea.
Xu Yuntian and his entourage walked up the stairs along the mountain road, Zhanlu Mountain was very steep, the top of the straight peak seemed to have been cut in half with a sword obliquely, and the peak was thick with fog, looking like a place full of demons. On both sides of the mountain road, there are dense waste swords.
Fortunately, Zhan Lu Mountain did not refuse to forge sword warriors, and His Royal Highness Gongzi also had less trouble making up names, so he only asked the disciples guarding the mountain where Jiang Ming was and went straight up the mountain.
Su Laodao casually pulled out a rusty sword that was obliquely inserted in the mountain stone on the side of the road, the sword was slender and long, and with a flick of his fingers, the half of the rust that exposed the mountain stone was bounced off several times, and suddenly the thin sword was shiny again.
The old Taoist priest said: "It's strange to say, in the past, this Zhanlu Mountain only had to cast a peerless divine weapon every five hundred years, but in the past two hundred years, there have been four pieces. ”
The first of them is a bladeless heavy sword, called "no demon", which was obtained by the name of the ancient monarch of the sword demon, the second is the "Tianxin Dragon War" in the hands of His Royal Highness the King of Zhou, which was destroyed in Xuanwu City a few days ago, and the third is the "full moon" in the hands of Wusheng An Tong. Saying this, the old Taoist priest glanced at An Guqing, and said, "It's a pity that the martial saint couldn't enter the realm of gods with a sword after all." ”
The last one is called the "White Phoenix", and it is a great pity that no one has seen its true appearance since it was born thirty years ago, and if these four divine weapons are removed, the five-hundred-year period is almost up. ”
He said to Xu Yuntian again: "Your Royal Highness, I don't know what name you want to take for this fifth divine weapon?"
Xu Yuntian retracted his hand into his sleeve and held the silver-white dagger, and said in his heart If this old man knew that the unknown divine soldier "White Phoenix" was in his hand, what kind of face would it be, presumably with this guy's virtue, I am afraid that he would come up and grab it directly.
There was a smile on his face: "There is no divine iron, and it is unknown whether the divine soldiers can come out, and we will talk about it when it is cast." ”
The mountain road was winding, and the old Taoist priest inserted the thin sword into the stone again and climbed the steps.
————
The sword room where the three generations of disciples of Zhan Lu Mountain, the "first person", is really extraordinary.
Xu Yuntian didn't expect that this unpopular sword caster really didn't lie to him. It actually has the largest sword room and sword furnace in Zhanlu Mountain.
After a farewell of December, when he saw Jiang Ming, he still didn't change much, but he was a little less sharp and a little more unwilling.
The young man served tea to His Royal Highness Gongzi in a hurry, then squatted on the side with a smile, licked his face and said: "Brother Yun, how can you have time to come to my Zhanlu Mountain, and I didn't inform me in advance, I didn't prepare anything to entertain." ”
Xu Yuntian looked around at the sword room, frowned, and said, "You are too embarrassed to be the first person, such a big sword room has a table and a chair, and there is not even a decent decoration, and you can't even find a sword blank." ”
Jiang Ming still smiled and said: "Since the death of Master Xian, my vein has completely declined, and most of the senior brothers have gone under the names of other elders, and now I am the only one." ”
Yan Cripple on the side couldn't help but say loudly: "I don't know who the Ling Master is?"
Jiang Ming tore open a small piece of white cloth from the middle of the sword room, revealing a clean and clean spiritual position, and said, "Ancestor Zhang has no trace. ”
Old Yan's face suddenly looked stunned, and Xu Yuntian asked, "Do you know?"
"Know!" Yan lame sighed heavily, looked at the spirit position and said: "Not only do I know, but the meditation staff in my hand is from Zhang Wuxian, and the four great divine weapons that Su Lao Dao said are also from his hands, but I didn't expect that Sectjiang Zhang's infinite scenery would fall to this more than ten years after his immortal death." ”
Yan Lame looked at the empty wall of the sword room again, and said, "I remember that this wall should have been full of superb miracle soldiers at that time, even if Sectmaster Zhang is gone, you shouldn't be so downcast with the background he left behind?"
Jiang Ming shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Most of the strange soldiers left by those masters were taken away by the brothers who joined him in another vein, even if there were those who stayed, the kid was weak, and he couldn't stand these treasures, and they were all "borrowed" by the brothers of other veins. It is said that it is borrowed, it is better to say that it is more robbed, my martial arts attainments are not as good as them, and I can't beat them, and I can't say it, so far there is only this sword room and sword furnace left by the master. ”
"There is still such a thing?!" Xu Yuntian was annoyed, it is not uncommon for those family gates to have this thing, but this is the famous sect of Great Xia, I can't imagine that it is still indispensable to suppress the behavior of down-and-out disciples, Tiannan travels around, whether the sects he has seen are declining or rising, at least the people of the sect are of the same heart, how did they get to Zhongzhou, the first sect they saw was intrigue, and they immediately thought in their hearts, how can such a sect last for a long time? and how can it stand for two thousand years.
At this time, two men and a woman walked in from outside the sword room, and after seeing Xu Yuntian and his party, the woman who led the way said in a strange manner: "Yo, Senior Brother Jiang, there are guests." ”
He turned to Xu Yuntian and saluted with a fist: "I don't know if you are friends of the ancestor or a guest who came to cast the blade?"
His Royal Highness Gongzi said lightly: "No, I am a friend of Brother Jiang." ”
The woman in the lead clenched her fist for a moment, and then she directly withdrew her fist salute and shook it, saying, "I really can't see that Senior Brother Jiang still has friends in the rivers and lakes, it's really strange." ”
Jiang Ming smiled bitterly and said, "Senior sister, in front of the spirit card of the first master, we will talk about something calmly. ”
Hearing Jiang Ming speak, the woman said rudely: "Who is your senior sister? You can see clearly, I am now a sword-casting boy beside the master, and I can't afford to be promoted by you, the senior brother of the Instrument Sect." ”
There are three veins in Zhanlu Mountain, one is the Sword Sect, the other is the Qi Sect.
The Sword Sect only specializes in casting swords, while the Instrument Sect is the mainstream of the blades, but the Qi Sect is specialized in casting the Qimen miscellaneous soldiers, and there are many knights who practice swords in the world, so the Sword Sect is the strongest.
The woman deliberately bit the word "boss" very hard, Xu Yuntian only felt sick when he heard it, he really couldn't imagine that there was such a doggy and bitter person.
I heard the mean woman speak: "Senior Brother Jiang, don't worry about it, I came here to inform you of something." ”
The woman paused, looked at the sword furnace that was seven or eight zhang high in the middle and the sword room more than thirty zhang wide, and said: "Recently, a group of sword-casting boys have been recruited in the inner gate, and I want to ask you to go over and teach one or two. ”
After Jiang Ming heard this, his forehead suddenly burst into blue tendons, and he clenched his fists.
After a long time, he loosened his fist again, and said bitterly: "Is this what the head of the house means?"
The elder sister of the Primordial Weapon Sect sneered and said, "I said that I didn't mean the master, why don't you go to the head and ask for an understanding?"
Jiang Ming's eyes couldn't stop the anger, and said: "Senior sister, stop it, the master and his old man only have this sword room and sword furnace left, if you go like this, there will be no weapon sect in Zhanlu Mountain!"
Now Xu Yuntian can be regarded as understanding the meaning, probably because the master sister who betrayed her teacher was worried about the objects left by the original Sect Craftsman Zhang, and after moving all those things, she also hit the idea on this sword room and sword furnace, but I don't know how much it means that there is the head of Zhan Lushan here.
I heard Jiang Ming over there say coldly: "Senior sister, you can't be like a beast, if you insist on doing this, even if I can't fight you, I will fight with you with all my might." ”
When the senior sister heard this, her eyebrows immediately rose, and she said sharply: "The goods picked up from the kennel, the turtle eggs that don't have long eyes, I use you to teach me?
After saying that, "Zheng" pulled out his portable sword and pointed directly at Jiang Ming.
Jiang Ming did not show weakness and pulled out the rusty iron sword.
Xu Yuntian really couldn't stand it anymore, and said loudly: "I said this aunt, it's okay to be ugly, you have a miracle doctor who can change your appearance, but your ugly heart can't be cured, or I'll change your heart for a beast?"
The senior sister was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that this was saying that she was a beast.
Jian Feng pointed at Xu Yuntian and said: "The shaft is nosy, who is the teacher, which family is from, and the name is reported." ”
Xu Yuntian's face was cold, and he said, "There is no teacher, and his surname is Xu." ”
This is the first person in the world who dares to call him a vertical son.
The senior sister of the Primordial Instrument Sect thought about it carefully, I haven't heard of any great family surnamed Xu in the rivers and lakes, as for the Great Xia royal family, looking at the clothes on their bodies are not like the people of Central Continent, it is unlikely that they will come.
Out of caution, he asked, "What is the surname Xu of the Great Xia royal family and you?"
"Mortal vendetta. ”
The senior sister laughed and said, "That's fine! A person like you will be cut off in one piece, saving trouble." ”
The other two men on the side were startled, didn't they secretly say that they were going to come to Liwei? Why are they going to start killing people at this time? Then they stopped in a loud voice: "Senior sister, this is not very good, this place is within the sect, and besides, they are guests here, and it is not good for my reputation to Zhanlu Mountain if it is spread out." ”
"Kill and kill, you and I don't say who knows, it's a big deal to be a little troublesome when you bury it. After finishing speaking, the senior sister saw that the two of them were still a little hesitant, so she said ruthlessly: "After this matter is completed, one person will have a strange blade!"
"Good!" the two immediately agreed.
Immediately, he also drew his sword and faced Xu Yuntian and his party.
