"I know that the two of us had a friendship a few years ago, and your supporter named Donghuang Jiulin has told me all kinds of rumors about you in the past few years. A few years after you came back from Dunhuang, you didn't leave the Sword Sect and enter the Shi, but in this year's trial, you easily got the pass based on the emperor's words, which will make many people angry. ”

After the morning banquet, Mu Sanqian came out of the front hall with a full burp and a big stabbing step, and the rest of the sword sects came out one after another, but they all hid far away, for fear of getting close to this young wild boy who had a lot of food and would be criticized.

Mu Sanqiancai didn't care what others thought, and when he saw Donghuang Taiyi in front, he walked a few steps over quickly, pretending to be very affectionate, and patted him on the shoulder.

Mu Guiyun followed behind, his heart jumped suddenly, this kid was too timid and fat, he dared to tease no one without asking.

Hongyi and Yangshan Zhe didn't know if it was deliberate, they followed behind half a zhang away, neither close nor far away, Mu Guiyun was also together, clearly looking at the two little ancestors in front of them talking and laughing, but they couldn't hear what they were talking about.

"If I had been in the Sword Sect for a while in previous years, even if I was the head of the disciple's academy with a proper reputation, I might not be able to participate in the trial smoothly. Now that I am no longer a resident disciple of the Sword Sect, my father specially instructed me to participate, don't you think there is something strange about this. ”

Donghuangtai didn't squint and said slowly.

"You mean that someone deliberately put you in a trial and then did something in secret?"

"It's a rare opportunity, and I would find it strange if no one used their brains. ”

"Then you promised so happily at the breakfast party, I thought you didn't have the opportunity to participate in the trial before, and I was impatient to hear that you could make an exception to participate. ”

Mu Sanqian rolled his eyes, Donghuang Taiyi should have been prepared, although he was just a martial idiot with an arrogant and eccentric personality when he looked at him in Dunhuang a few years ago, but since he knew that he had been in the office for many years and could still live safely, I am afraid that his heart and wrist have long been different.

"I entered the career from the way of the sword, in the final analysis, I still hope that I can make achievements in the way of the sword, the trial is once a year, the farther the strength Yu Qiang can go, the more precious the understanding will naturally be, the opportunity is rare, even if I know that someone wants to deliberately dig a pit, I want to see it in person. ”

"The adventurous spirit is appreciated. ”

Mu Sanqian said and patted Donghuang Taiyi's shoulder again, and the posture was like an old gentleman in a private school. Although his reaction was a little slower, Mu Sanqian still noticed the last words of the Eastern Emperor Taiyi.

"His Royal Highness still has to supervise the trial matters, and the lower officials will not disturb much, so they will retire. ”

"Don't, Lord Xiaomu must be very unfamiliar with the trials of our Sword Sect when he comes from afar, how about listening to this prince tell you well?"

Donghuang Taiyi came prepared, and he was calculating and unintentionally taking advantage of the whole situation, and grabbed Mu Sanqian's sleeve.

"Your Royal Highness, you have to beware of being too tired and scheming and prone to premature aging. ”

Mu Sanqian cried with a sad face, so he had to continue to follow behind Donghuang Taiyi.

"Xishu already occupies the wonders of the world, and the mountains behind the Sword Sect stretch for hundreds of miles, and it is a deep mountain and ancient forest that few people dare to set foot in. I don't know how many years ago it was, a young disciple in the Sword Sect was dissatisfied with being punished by his master for being naughty and disobedient, so he quietly ran to the back mountain without knowing the news. Almost all the elders and disciples of the Sword Sect went out to search, and after searching for more than a month, they still found nothing, just when everyone thought that the young man was no longer alive——"

"He's out of nowhere?"

Donghuang Taiyi is really not a good storyteller, it should be a twisty and bizarre and fascinating story, but it is really awkward to tell it in that kind of tone in his mouth, Mu Sanqian couldn't help but interject when he heard it.

"That's right. ”

Donghuang Taiyi obviously hadn't reacted yet, and after being interrupted by Mu Sanqian, he nodded and said yes.

After the boy came back, his temperament changed greatly, and he was no longer naughty and troublesome but devoted himself to practicing kendo, and then his kendo cultivation became a thousand miles a day, and the same door felt that it was a miracle in the eyes. After inquiring, I learned that the boy had a great cultivation in the ancient forest of the back mountain. ”

"Could it be that he met the rumored old sword immortal of your Sword Sect?"

This is not known, and his answer has always been ambiguous, neither denying nor confirming. ”

"But he did have what kind of encounter in the back mountain to enter the realm for thousands of miles, so you Sword Sect knew that there were still such treasures hidden in the old forest that stretched for hundreds of miles in the back mountain. ”

"I have a clearer understanding of the situation in the back mountain, it is also a matter of recent decades, the suzerain of the last few generations has always regarded exploring the secret of the back mountain as the first priority of the Sword Sect, Xishu established the country with martial arts, although the position of the Sword Sect is transcendent, but it is not as stable as Mount Tai, they all say that they were born in distress and died in peace, and it is precisely in the sense of responsibility for the future of the Sword Sect that the sect masters of the past generations will insist on the exploration of the back mountain for hundreds of years. ”

"Compared to your Sword Sect, I'm afraid that those old men in our Wudang Mountain can be said to be typical examples of not wanting to make progress. ”

Mu Sanqian has been in Wudang for several months now, and he really misses it when he thinks about it, but somehow the first thing Mu Sanqian thinks of is not Lu Zijiao, who is closest to him on weekdays, but the second senior brother Shang Rong.

"There is a special guide in the Sword Sect that has been kept in the hands of several elders, and that guide is contained in the ancient forest of the mountain explored by the elders of the same sect of the Sword Sect for generations. ”

"That's a lot easier, at least you don't have to run around like a headless fly after entering the ancient forest. ”

"After a long time, many places in the ancient forest were familiar to the Sword Sect, and then the in-depth exploration became more and more difficult, the Sword Sect simply taught the ancient forest to the young disciples in the back mountain as a kind of training, and at the same time, those sword ruins in the back mountain can also make the disciples of the Sword Sect understand, which is a matter of killing two birds with one stone. ”

"If those old men in the Sword Rain Pavilion knew that your Xishu Sword Sect still had such unreasonable things, they would have to vomit blood in anger. ”

In this way, it seems that the Jianghu Sect can't find much about the cultivation of the younger generations, but the Xishu Sword Sect has the support of the royal family behind it, and it has such a way of creation and transformation, which will indeed make many people red-eyed.

"What did you say?"

"Huh? Nothing. ”

The two of them said that the trial of the Sword Sect was not only a test, but also a kind of polishing for the younger generations, Mu Sanqian naturally thought of the people in the Sword Rain Pavilion who he met when he followed his master to Northern Xinjiang, and they had come over for ten years, and they didn't know what the current Chu Xiaonian Wei Ling'er had become.

I didn't stop all the way to the palace where the Eastern Emperor Taiyi rested, and there were already guards waiting at the door, and when I saw my master appear, I trotted all the way over.

"Your Highness, the schedule for the selection of the trial quota of the Sword Sect Disciple Academy has been arranged, and the Sect Master Feng sent someone to send a copy to His Highness. ”

"Got it. ”

Donghuang Taiyi took it and took a few cursory glances.

"Then don't bother, Your Highness, I'll go back first. ”

This will be Donghuang Taiyi did not stop and nodded.

Mu Guiyun, who was following behind, walked a few steps and followed up, and also said goodbye to Donghuang Taiyi.

"Seventh brother, seventh brother, found it!"

As soon as Mu 3,000 and four people walked through the corridor, they collided with the old forest of the Eastern Emperor, who had not seen a figure in the morning.

"Oops, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

Donghuang Jiulin didn't look at who it was, he said sorry directly, and then pulled a strange person behind him who was covered in a robe and walked towards the palace.

"This kid, what's the matter, I saw him a few days ago as steady as an old man in his fifties and sixties. ”

Mu Sanqian rubbed his aching shoulder and muttered.
