Volume 1 Chapter 43 The Controversy
"This ......"
Suddenly, several disciples below were in a panic.
"Is there a way to remedy this?" Tang Wu asked.
Tai nodded and continued, "Yes." If you can find the Five Elements Sacred Bead, you will definitely be able to repair the Bagua Array and strengthen the seal. ”
"Five Elements Holy Bead?!" Tang Wu's eyes leaped with surprise, and the other disciples present were all at a loss.
"That's right, that Five Elements Sacred Pearl is the multicolored stone that Nuwa Niangniang left in the world after mending the heavens, and it has great power. And now it is scattered all over China. If you want to find it, I'm afraid it's difficult. ”
Taiyi said, shaking his head, and sighing again. The other seven elders all had sad faces.
"Master. Tang Wu shouted in a firm tone, and at the same time knelt on one knee and bowed his hand: "Tang Wu voluntarily asked for his life, and the Nether Realm searched for the Five Elements Holy Bead." ”
"Disciple, please live. With Tang Wu leading, the other first disciples of the Seven Palaces also knelt on the ground and recommended themselves.
"No, you can't. Wuchen suddenly stood up and shouted: "You are all the first generation of my big disciples in Shushan, and you will perform your duties in Shushan and will not be transferred." ”
"But ......" Tang Wu looked up at Taiyi, hesitation in his eyes.
In this regard, he really wanted to make a contribution, but he had to listen to the words of Master Wuchen.
Taiyi steadied for a moment, smiled, and said, "This matter is still inconclusive for the time being." You might as well talk about the situation after the freshman disciple went to the sword shrine this time. ”
Tang Wu nodded, and then said slowly: "Most of the disciples have chosen the sword that they are satisfied with, and there are seven disciples who have come out within twelve hours. ”
"Oh, which seven?" Taiyi raised an eyebrow.
"The top eight above the Sword and Fairy Conference. Tang Wu bowed his hand and replied concisely and clearly.
Taiichi stroked the silver beard on his chin and laughed loudly, seemingly satisfied with it.
"What did Jingwei get?"
"Senior Brother Jingwei is holding a sword. ”
Taiyi's expression was stunned, and the faces of the other elders also changed greatly, looking at each other, as if they were communicating something in their eyes.
After a while, Youyan tightened his thick eyebrows, and couldn't help but speak: "It turned out to be Don't be a sword, for hundreds of years, Don't be a sword has never chosen a master, I didn't expect it to be ...... today."
His words were the doubts in everyone's hearts, and several elders knew about the past of Bewei Sword, and they all thought that Bewei Sword would not choose another master in the future.
On the other hand, the disciples looked puzzled. Tang Wu was even more unclear: "Master, do you have any doubts?"
Taiyi raised his hand and shook his head: "Don't be a sword, it is the sword of the Xuanyang Patriarch, its power is extraordinary, Jingwei can get it, and the teacher will naturally be happy for him." ”
Having said that, Taiyi's eyebrows and eyes seemed to hide a deep mind as deep as the sea.
Tang Wu nodded in disbelief, and then quietly observed the faces of the elders.
However, all the elders were silent, and when the atmosphere was awkward, one of them suddenly opened his mouth: "Senior brother, according to what I have seen, today's freshman disciples are full of talents, and there are people who can win the favor of Xuanyang Patriarch's sword, maybe this is the will of heaven." ”
The one who spoke was the elder Yingyang, who was in charge of the Kanshui Palace, this person was much older than some of the elders present, and his rank was second only to Lingquan. Although he was old, his eyebrows were hard and kind, especially those eyes were very dark and unpredictable. And this person is also a direct disciple of Xuanyang Patriarch.
"Senior brother's proposal is not bad. Taiyi's eyes lit up and he smiled and nodded.
Ran Wuchen stood up and objected: "No, Shushan convention, disciples must reach the solid realm before they can go to the lower realm, these freshman disciples are still shallow, if they go down the mountain, it will be dangerous." ”
Having said this, Youyan didn't like it very much, and said with a cold face: "Wuchen, whether it is a new disciple or a first-generation disciple, it is mainly based on cultivation. Now that Shushan is in trouble, the first generation of disciples has the mission of guarding Shushan, which is far more difficult and dangerous than any new disciple. Why should the freshman disciples be pampered in Shushan? Should they be more noble?"
"Strict. Wuchen's face changed greatly, and he jumped up angrily: "What do you mean by this? Do you also agree to let some fledgling children shoulder this kind of thing?"
"Why not? Isn't this just a chance to give them experience?" said Youyan.
The smell of gunpowder suddenly filled the air between the two, and no one let anyone.
"Two junior brothers, and listen to what the brother said. Seeing that the atmosphere was in a dangerous stage, Shang Ran got up and opened his mouth between the two.
And Shang Ran himself has a bold temperament, so he has a good relationship with the elders of the other Seven Palaces, and there has been no contradiction, so the two elders naturally listened to what he said.
Hearing this, the two looked away with dissatisfaction and chose to listen to Shang Ran's opinion.
Shang Ran said: "Senior Brother Wuchen, Brother Wei knows that you have always loved your disciples, but this time is different from the past. Rules are dead, but people are alive, as you have said. So the old man's opinion is to agree with Senior Brother Yingyang's idea. ”
"Senior Brother Shangran. Yu Yan shouted, looking dissatisfied.
"Hey, if you depend on you, do you want the first generation of disciples to go down the mountain to find the Five Elements Holy Bead and let the new disciples guard Shu Mountain?"
This remark was a fierce medicine, and suddenly Wuchen had nothing to say.
His expression was complicated, he lowered his head and struggled for a long time, and finally compromised: "Then let's follow what Senior Brother Shangran said." ”
After that, he took two steps back and said, "It's not early today, and Wuchen is a little tired, so I will retire first." ”
When the words fell, he went straight away, not looking at the dissatisfaction and unwillingness, but seeing the helplessness.
The other elders did not stop them, but gathered together to discuss which ones would go down the mountain to find the holy bead this time, and finally decided that the seven disciples who came out of the sword mound first would go down the mountain.
After the matter was decided, the eight palaces were scattered, and they all returned to the palace to prepare for this matter.
At night, the strong smell of alcohol fills the fire palace. Above the main hall, under the dim candlelight, Wuchen lay on his side on the seat with a decadent face, half leaning on the desk, his eyes drooping, and his eyes were thoughtful.
Outside the door, there was a knock from time to time. Wuchen raised his eyes and looked at the door, only to see two shadows standing outside the door.
"Come in. ”
When the words fell, the two people outside the door pushed the door in, and when they entered the room, they were filled with the smell of wine and sandalwood, and they couldn't say the feeling, only stuffy and uncomfortable.
And the two people who came in were Li Yicheng and Qin Shu.
Wuchen raised his eyes and watched the two slowly walk in from the outside, and his sad face was relieved. He put down the wine jar, his eyes swept over Qin Shu's body, and finally stopped at the sword hanging from his waist, the more he looked at it, the more familiar it felt, and he couldn't help frowning: "Qin Shu, what kind of sword is the sword on your waist?"
"Back to the master, it is the sword of hatred. The corners of Qin Shu's mouth rose and stepped forward. He considered his saber to be the most advanced among the freshman disciples, and his master would definitely praise him.
