Chapter 40: The Moon in the Mirror, the Snake in the Lake
Jingzhai Hall.
In the square in front of the palace, there is a group of little girls practicing swords, soaking wet and sweating, the sun has just risen, and this practice will continue until late at night.
Whoever is lazy will be whipped.
You can't resist, you can't question it, you don't even have the slightest choice.
Jing Zhai asks you to learn the sword, you can only learn the sword, as for why it is a sword, it is not something that you need to know as a beginner disciple, even if your identity is very noble in Jing Zhai.
But no matter how noble it is, it's useless.
It's the rule.
For as long as he can remember, Ye Qingniao has often asked a question: "Senior sister, why can we only learn swords, can't we learn anything else?"
Senior Sister shook her head: "You must learn swords." ”
Ye Qingniao: "Why?"
The senior sister replied to him: "Because this is the order of the sect master, the disciples of Jing Zhai are to learn the sword, there is no reason." ”
Ye Qingniao: "But I like knives, I want to learn knives, I think I can build a great road with a knife." ”
Senior sister thought for a long time, and then pointed to the sun: "Go to the penalty station." ”
The sun is scorching.
The mountain is very high, very close to the sun, and it is extremely sunny in the middle of summer.
Soon, the little blue bird was dizzy from the sun, and at this time she didn't know how to practice, and her body had no strength at all.
From sunrise to sunset, the senior sister returned: "Have you figured it out? Do you still want to learn knives?"
The little blue bird raised his head innocently: "I think, I just don't want to learn swords anyway, my sisters are learning swords, and I also learn swords, how boring." ”
Senior Sister touched her broken hair with a complicated face: "Cultivation itself is a very boring thing. ”
Ye Qingniao: "Is it boring?"
Under the scorching sun, the little blue bird thought about it all day, and when her senior sister came again, she said very seriously: "I think learning a sword is indeed very boring, but learning a knife is different, I feel that I hold the knife and I feel that I hold the whole world, and I am excited all over my body." ”
The conversation is closed.
Ye Qingniao's senior sister looked at her for a long time, stared at her eyes for a long time, and then let her go back to the house, no longer basking in the sun: "You don't have to learn swords, that's your own business, senior sister doesn't care about it in the future." But in Jingzhai, don't let people know that you want to learn a knife, and don't touch a knife secretly, that will bring you to the death of your senior sister. ”
For many years.
Ye Qingniao has become a strange thing in Jingzhai, he doesn't learn swords, he doesn't touch swords, but he doesn't touch other things, he just squats on the steps of the martial arts arena every day and looks at everyone. Slowly, everyone got used to it, used to this little transparency, used to this outlier.
The forest is big, and there are all kinds of birds.
The presence of special people should be allowed.
Jing Zhai's sword is very powerful, and when Ye Qingniao passed her twelfth birthday, her senior sisters already had a strong cultivation. Shi Nishang, who has the highest talent and loves her the most, even broke through two realms in a row, and she herself is just a powerless little transparent, forever a little transparent.
She listened to her senior sister very much, and did not break her original oath, and then she watched her senior sister being ridiculed behind her back by the people in the sect, laughing at the person she taught was an idiot, who didn't even dare to hold a sword, and was a useless thing.
Ye Qingniao herself was ridiculed, she felt that it didn't matter, but she couldn't let people laugh at her senior sister, but in the place of Jingzhai, she didn't do anything, she couldn't and didn't dare.
And then.
She ran away secretly.
Left Jingzhai Mountain without permission, and left her senior sister, because she wanted to impress the people on this mountain, she wanted to get a knife, she wanted to learn a knife, and use her own knife to defeat the sword in this mountain.
She also had to question the sect master: "Why do you make such a rule, sword, what's the big deal." ”
Sword.
It's really nothing remarkable.
But the story behind this sword is remarkable, she is still young, and what she sees is not necessarily the truth.
This is Ye Qingniao's heart knot, she can't figure it out and can't get out of this mirror.
Ning Shi on the other side was directly taken to a stone bridge by the passage on the big tree, with the bright moon hanging high overhead, and a quiet lake in front of him, and a sword boat parked on the lake, a boat in the shape of a long sword.
A large flock of black crows flew very slowly, and a snake was exposed in the lake, a snake very similar to the sword spirit gray line of the grass snake sword, and the snake's eyes were very hollow, hollow to seep people.
The leaf blue bird was left at the edge of the well.
To be born to die, is this to be born to die?
Push one's fellow to death, and then live oneself, and get a chance to live!Or in order to live, someone must willingly embrace death?
Surprised!
It turns out that it is only because it is in the bones!
The snake in the lake looked at Ning Shi: "You shouldn't come in." ”
Leaving Ye Qingniao and Chen Yusheng, Ning Shi had already blamed himself and felt guilty and remorseful to the extreme, and said with a cold face: "If I want to go out, I must come in first." ”
The snake in the lake said in an equally cold tone: "You will destroy this place of trial." ”
The corners of Ning Shi's mouth twitched: "Don't worry, I will go out after I close the sword array, if there is no accident, I'm afraid no one will come in again." There is not much difference between whether this sword formation is there or not, because the trial no longer needs to be opened. ”
The snake in the lake was silent for a long time: "But you shouldn't have brought it in, you were deceived." ”
It?
Who is it?
There are only the snake in the lake and Ning Shi here, and there are ......
The gray line with wings is silent all the way, silent all the way, quiet all the way, like a good baby. At this moment, it suddenly flew over Ning Shi's shoulder, and the snake tail even slapped him.
Not light, not heavy.
But it's intriguing.
Isn't the gray line always saying that he is the sword spirit of the grass snake sword? The broken sword of the grass snake sword has recognized the master, and he is the master of the sword, so this sword spirit naturally has to recognize himself as the master.
Ning Shi had never questioned this kind of rule, so he didn't guard against the gray line at all, but just now, the tail of this stinky snake actually swept itself!
"Who the hell are you?" Ning Shi scolded coldly, he was young and could allow failure, but not betrayal.
"I'm the sword spirit of the Grass Snake Sword, I'm the stinky snake in your mouth, don't you know me?" said the gray line in mid-air Guli strangely, flying towards the snake in the lake as he spoke, "It is also the sword spirit of the Grass Snake Sword, and the two of us used to be one." ”
"It's tough, I tried to persuade it, but it doesn't listen, it only has rules in its head. ”
Pause for a moment.
The gray line flying in mid-air bites the seven inches of the snake in the lake, which looks fierce but seems to be unable to move at all. It is the core of the sword array in this land of trials, and when it moves, the array is destroyed.
The gray line bites and eats while nagging: "It's stupid, but I can't be stupid with it, so we separated, I can be unrestrained in the sword shrine, and it can fulfill its rules and promises here." ”
"How nice. ”
"Isn't that good?"
"However, it's not good if no one comes to the sword shrine, it's boring, boring, boring. ”
