Chapter 10: The Sustenance of the Heart
Just as Yue Xiuying returned to the room, Qiu Yuanxue walked out of the room, she kept groping Yue Xiuying's posture of practicing swords under the moonlight, and practiced swordsmanship repeatedly.
At this time, a female apprentice was awakened by the sound of the sword, and she yawned and walked out of the door and said, "Ah...... Who doesn't sleep at night?"
"Silence!" At this moment, Yue Xiuying appeared outside her door at some point, she had been watching Xue practicing swords, and saw a disciple walking out of the door, afraid of disturbing Xue, so she stopped the apprentice.
"Master, why don't you rest at such a late hour?" said the female apprentice when she saw Master.
"It's none of your business, go back to your room and rest. Yue Xiuying waved her hand and said.
"Oh...... Then I'll go back, and Master should rest early," and then the female apprentice closed the door.
Yuexiu looked up at the stars in the night sky, and she sighed, "Alas..... Mu Ying, what you said didn't expect it to come true, watch it from the sky, your daughter will definitely live safely. ”
In the darkness of the night, Yue Xiuying fell into deep memories....
20 years ago, in a martial arts competition of the immortal faction, the young Yue Xiuying came to the stage and started a swordsmanship duel with Qiuyuan Muying from the Taihua Mountain Immortal faction, and the swordsmanship of the two of them was earth-shattering after a competition, and it was difficult to give up, and there was still no winner in the duel for more than 40 rounds, seeing that a stick of incense on the incense burner was about to burn out, there was still no result, and finally ended in a draw.
After the competition, Qiu Yuan Muying, who was wearing a white immortal suit and combing long black hair, came to Yue Xiuying's side and smiled awkwardly and said, "Oops.... I didn't expect that this time there was no winner or loser, but it doesn't matter, there will be opportunities in the future. ”
"I've never met an opponent who can take over more than 40 moves from me at the Immortal Cultivation Conference, and you're the only exception... Alas. Yue Xiuying stood under the stage and watched the competition of the disciples on the stage, wiping the sword with a handkerchief and said.
"Okay, okay, don't be discouraged, I'm glad to have made a friend like you. Qiu Yuan Muying smiled and comforted Yue Xiuying and said.
"I heard that you are pregnant, why do you still come to participate in such a competition if you don't recuperate at home?" are you not afraid that your flesh and bones will be injured?" Yue Xiuying said as she looked at Mu Ying's slightly bulging abdomen.
"It's not that you're afraid that you won't find an opponent and look lonely. Qiu Yuan Muying said with a smile.
"Are you sent by God to deliberately make things difficult for me?.... Let's be honest. Yue Xiuying looked at Mu Ying with contempt and disgust.
"Well, this competition is actually something to discuss, and if I have any accidents in the future, I hope you can help me take care of the child. Mu Ying said as he touched his slightly bulging abdomen with his hand
"Wait, stop, don't throw it at me, feed your own flesh and blood." Yue Xiuying said with a drop of sweat on her forehead.
"It's okay, aren't you also a mother of a child, so you should take care of another child. Qiu Yuan Muying said with a smile.
"Sweaty... It's easy to say, you don't know how difficult it is to feed a child, not to mention that children are not items that can't be thrown away at will. Yue Xiuying shook her head and said.
Qiu Yuan Muying turned her back to Yue Xiuying, let out a crying convulsion, and a tear fell to the ground, she said to Yue Xiuying: "Please! I don't want to leave the child.... But if that curse is true, in case I really have any accidents, I can only entrust this child to you to take care of!"
"Makuei... You.... Alas, well, I promise you. Yue Xiuying also expressed sympathy when she saw her best friend's sad expression, so she agreed.
It's been 20 years since time passed, and Yue Xiuying recalled the various experiences she had had in the past with Mu Ying and sighed: "Alas, at first I thought that what you said was just a joke, but I didn't expect that curse to really come true... But don't worry, I will take care of your child, and her persistent personality also reminds me of my late daughter. ”
After Xue was desperately practicing swordsmanship in the night, suddenly she felt unwell, and Yue Xiuying saw that the condition was not good, and hurriedly stepped forward to Xue's back and used medical magic to heal her condition.
"Aha...... Aha...... Master, why are you here?" Qiu Yuanxue turned around and saw Yue Xiuying healing herself, and exclaimed.
"Though you practice your sword, I will cure you of your sickness. ”
Yue Xiuying said while concentrating on mental healing.
"Yes. In this way, the master and apprentice practiced swordsmanship diligently under the darkness of the night.
In the blink of an eye, year after year has passed, Qiu Yuanxue is no longer the timid little girl, she has grown up, and she has continued to learn with Yue Xiuying's swordsmanship all the way.
Gradually, Xue gradually mastered Yue Xiuying's swordsmanship essentials
One day, when Qiu Yuanxue was practicing his sword in the courtyard of the disciple's room, a firelight fell from the sky not far away, like a meteorite, falling from the sky, and with the shaking of the earth, the surrounding trees were swaying from side to side.
In the main hall of the Xuanling Hall, a large number of medicine bottles and cans were shattered due to the vibration, and the surrounding crowd lost their balance like drunks, swaying left and right on the trembling ground.
And in the panic, Qiu Yuanxue subconsciously glanced at it in the courtyard, and saw a little girl with short silver hair and a slender braid on her head standing at the open main entrance, she stood very calmly outside the door and looked at Qiu Yuanxue, and said: "It seems that you have found it, you are the first successor." ”
The sound of this sentence was clearly conveyed to Xue's ears, and the voice of the short-haired girl "Wow!" turned into a beam of white light and disappeared into Xue's sight out of thin air, and due to the shaking of the ground, Xue also lost her balance like everyone present, and she shouted after hearing the girl's words just now: "Wait!"
Then Xue took advantage of the crowd to run out of the courtyard in a panic, chasing the mysterious girl all the way.
At the same time, the sound of shaking continued for a while before stopping, everyone retreated to the courtyard, and Yue Xiuying also hurriedly walked out of the main hall and looked left and right and said, "What happened here?"
"I don't know, Master, I just saw a fireball flying over and then there was an earthquake. In the crowd, a female apprentice with a broom shook her head nervously leaning against the corner of the wall with both hands on the broom rod.
Yue Xiuying looked at the panicked crowd standing in the courtyard, some of them were supported by the apprentices, and the branches around were scattered all over the place, and a large number of potted plants were scattered all over the place, she hurriedly instructed the disciples and said, "Take care of the injured and tidy up the courtyard." ”
At this time, Xuexue, who was running all the way through the mountain jungle path, shouted as she ran, "Who are you, little girl? ”
Running and running at the end of the mountain road was a right turn, and the short silver-haired little girl suddenly flashed in front of the snow, she stood there without saying a word, raised her right hand and pointed to the right, and then again "Wow!" and disappeared into the air with a white light.
Qiu Yuanxue ran to the end, looked left and right, and didn't see the figure of the girl, so she shouted, "Where do you want to take me?"
At the same time, at the end of the detour on the right side was a cave, and from inside the cave came a mysterious shout: "Autumn - source - snow!"
After hearing this voice, Xue turned her head to look at the entrance of the cave, only to see that the silver-haired girl teleported to the entrance of the cave again, she calmly pointed to the inside of the cave, and then turned into a white light and disappeared without a trace.
The snow followed the direction of the sound source coming from the cave and stepped into the cave, when a biting cold wind suddenly blew from the depths of the cave, making people feel numb in their scalps.
Xue found a branch and lit the branch with the flint and steel he carried with him to illuminate the cave, which turned out to be covered by layers of ice walls inside the cave, and a large amount of ice luan rose and fell on both sides, and the sound of dripping water was constantly heard at the end...... Tick ......"
In this way, the snow walked all the way, and I don't know how long later, she came to the center of the cave, and a ray of sunlight shone on the ground of the cave, and the surroundings were very gorgeous and beautiful.
Qiu Yuanxue looked up at the position of the sun, only to see a large hole that had been burned through above the cave.
Remnants of flame continued to flow down the edge of the circular hole, dripping onto the slippery ground, creating bursts of white mist.
At this time, in the middle of the slippery cave, a bronze sword glittering with silver light was inserted on the ground.
I saw that when the blade of the silver bronze sword was inserted into the ground, the ice on the ground also appeared multiple cracks, and it also dented the originally flat ground to form a huge basin full of cracks.
Qiu Yuanxue looked at the sword that glowed with silver light, and said with wide eyes, "What is this sword?"
"I've been waiting for you for a long time, inheritor of the Celestial Sword. At this time, the girl with short silver hair suddenly appeared in front of Xue at some point, and she stood next to the sword and said calmly.
As soon as the words fell, I saw that the whole body of the sword was glowing with silver light, and the light became brighter and brighter, wrapping the entire sword blade in it, and following the white light in the air, suddenly a giant dragon figure with a silver light appeared in front of Qiu Yuanxue, it looked down at the small snow in front of it and said, "Are you Qiu Yuanxue?"
Xing Yuxiang's log booklet
My lady's mentor, Yue Xiuying, in my eyes she is a very tough and rigorous person, although I used to disagree with her devilish training and strict teachings on the training of my lady's swordsmanship, I really felt distressed for my lady's body, but then I thought about it and found out.
It turns out that behind her strictness, there is also a kind side to find for others, and the purpose of being too strict is to prevent the lady from dying when fighting the enemy, and also to let her live safely, it can be said that her master treats the lady and she is also the second relative by the lady's side.
If the lady didn't meet this teacher for help, her illness and the risk of encountering monsters I don't know what kind of risk she would encounter, along the way it can be said that I have to thank this teacher for my lady's swordsmanship and spiritual teachings.
