CHAPTER XIII
"I said you didn't do anything unreasonable, or else people would hunt you down a bad old man. Ye Xiaoer said.
"Bad old man!?" Qingyunzi almost jumped high, "Lao Dao was also a generation of young and handsome young men back then, and he didn't know how many women he charmed. You say the old way is a bad old man?"
Ye Xiaoer looked at Qing Yunzi in disbelief and didn't say a word.
"You kid don't believe it. Qingyunzi said angrily.
"I can't believe it. Ye Xiaoer said helplessly.
Qing Yunzi snorted, and then continued: "That year, Lao Dao had just graduated from the school, and he went down the mountain alone to practice. When passing through Gan County, Yunzhou, he met a group of disciples of the Yanyang Sect who captured a woman. Originally, it seemed that the woman was only a second-rate master, and that group of Yanyang disciples were all second-rate realms, so they intervened to stop them. Qing Yunzi paused slightly, as if recalling the situation back then, and then he gritted his teeth and continued, "Who knew that woman was actually a super-first-class master of the Demon Sect Holy Maiden at that time, and she was hunted down and killed for stealing the heavy treasure of the Yanyang Sect, the Zhuhuo Jade. Because of the old way's intervention to let the Demon Sect Holy Maiden escape, she has also been ruthlessly attacked by them since then. ”
Ye Xiaoer said with a strange face: "How do I feel that there is nothing wrong with people chasing and killing you." ”
Qingyunzi coughed dryly, "So in order to make up for Lao Dao's mistakes, Lao Dao spent two years stealing back the Zhuhuo Jade from the Demon Sect General Altar. ”
Ye Xiaoer rolled his eyes and sneered: "I didn't expect you, old liar, to be so confused before." ”
Qingyunzi looked at Ye Xiaoer with an unkind face, "Why stinky boy, want to practice with the old way?"
Ye Xiaoer waved his hand again and again, and he hurriedly asked, "What happened to the Demon Sect Holy Maiden?"
When Qing Yunzi heard this, there was a look of sigh on his face, and he sighed, "That woman is really powerful, if she hadn't been seriously injured by the head of the Yanyang Sect when she stole jade, those Yanyang disciples who surrounded her and the old Dao who passed by would have become the souls of her sword." ”
"Lao Dao is a genius himself, but when he became a grandmaster, he was already sixty out of forty. And the Demon Sect Holy Maiden was only in her early thirties before she became a grandmaster. If it weren't for the joint efforts of the major forces to exterminate the Demon Sect, the Demon Sect would have gone up to the sect leader and down to the servant disciples, and none of them would have spared the death of the Holy Maiden. Now she is afraid that she is invincible in the world. ”
Ye Xiaoer was surprised, "So powerful?" For the first time in so many years, Ye Xiaoer heard him praise someone so much from Qing Yunzi's mouth, and he couldn't help but wonder how talented the Demon Sect Holy Maiden was to make Qing Yunzi praise him so much.
Suddenly, Ye Xiaoer looked at Qingyunzi strangely, and the grilled fish in his hands were a little burnt.
"You say you're a grandmaster?" Ye Xiaoer said with a strange expression.
Qingyunzi nodded as it should, "Yes." ”
Ye Xiaoer swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said to himself, "Why is this grandmaster so worthless?"
Qingyunzi said angrily: "Stinky boy, what do you mean? What do you mean by being so worthless? Lao Dao was the head of the Seven Juns of the Central Plains back then. ”
Ye Xiaoer coughed lightly twice, "Okay, okay." Old liar, you're the best. Let's talk about the Seven Great Families. With that, he handed the grilled fish to Qing Yunzi.
"Well, it tastes good. Qingyunzi praised again and again while eating grilled fish.
"These seven families refer to the seven families of Yan, Bai, Mu, Zhang, Li, Ji, and Dongfang. ”
"The family is slightly different from the sect, one mansion, two temples, three sects, four sects, and six major sects all have at least one grandmaster master. And there is not a single master master among the seven great families. Do you know why, stinky boy?"
Ye Xiaoer shook his head.
Qing Yunzi smiled, "It's very simple, it's not that there are no genius disciples in the family. And the pattern restricts their growth. ”
"The competition in the family is much lower than that of the sect, and the ancestors of each family have never achieved a grandmaster, so the disciples of the family can't understand what 'meaning' is, let alone become a grandmaster. ”
Ye Xiaoer asked, "Which is stronger or weaker than the martial arts inherited by the family and the sect?"
Qingyunzi chuckled and said, "There is no order of martial arts, and the master is the teacher." ”
Ye Xiaoer was thoughtful after hearing this.
Qing Yunzi patted Ye Xiaoer's shoulder, "Don't think so much, it's best to practice well and break through to a second-rate master within three years, so that you can compete for the Lingyun List." ”
Ye Xiaoer said strangely: "Lingyun List?...... What is this. ”
Qingyunzi was stunned for a moment, and then cried and laughed, "Ye Xun really won't tell you anything." This Lingyun list is the ranking list of young heroes in the Central Plains martial arts, and this list includes fifty martial artists who are no more than eighteen years old, and they change every year. You're fifteen years old this year, and you'll be exactly eighteen in three years. No matter how high the strength of a group of children is, how high can they be? Second-rate masters have reached the sky. ”
"Do you still want to fight in the ring?" Ye Xiaoer asked.
"Otherwise, how can you rank?" Qingyunzi rolled his eyes, "I think about it, according to the rules of the rotation of the major forces, the venues of the ring in the past three years are the Yanyang faction, the Daomen, and the Bai family. You kid can try it. ”
Ye Xiaoer said, "What's the benefit of fighting in the ring?"
"You kid. Qingyunzi smiled, "Those young heroes all regard the ranking as their fate, you don't care if it's good or not." ”
"Working hard in the ring, using all kinds of means, so that others can see the result just for a ranking? Ye Xiaoer said.
"You're thinking far ahead. Rest assured, no one other than the participants and the referee will be able to enter the tour. Moreover, there are rewards. ”
"What reward?" As soon as he heard that there was a reward, Ye Xiaoer suddenly became interested.
"It depends on what the forces are preparing. Qingyunzi said: "I got a blade made by a famous artist back then. ”
Ye Xiaoer pondered for a few breaths and asked, "Then what if a master with a sword takes a sword as a reward." ”
"You kid is worried that it will be redundant, and the organizer will make a list of rewards for each martial artist on the list to choose. Qingyunzi said.
While talking, the two of them had finished eating the grilled fish.
Qingyunzi stood up and drained the dust from his body, "Okay, it's time to practice 'sound'." ”
Ye Xiaoer stood up from the ground helplessly, "I thought you had forgotten." ”
Qingyunzi snorted and said, "Do you think Lao Dao is so confused?"
Ye Xiaoer nodded seriously.
"Since you kid thinks so, you don't have to rest. After Qingyunzi finished speaking, he grabbed Ye Xiaoer. Then he stepped on the breeze and drifted away, and in the blink of an eye, the two of them had walked more than ten feet.
Ye Xiaoer came back to his senses and wanted to break free of Qingyunzi's hand, but the seemingly withered hand was clasped like iron tongs, and he couldn't break free.
Due to the interference of the gust of wind in his ears, Ye Xiaoer asked loudly, "Old liar, where are you taking me?"
"Mountain top!" Qingyunzi responded.
"What are you doing at the top of the mountain?" Ye Xiaoeryou asked.
This time Qingyunzi didn't answer, but the speed was a little faster.
It didn't take long for Qingyunzi to suddenly stop and throw Ye Xiaoer forward.
In mid-air, Ye Xiaoer spread his arms, and at the same time, he turned around with his left foot as the axis, and then landed smoothly.
After landing, Ye Xiaoer sneezed. He gasped, "Ha, it's so much colder on this mountain than it is down here." "The mountains where Qingyun Temple is located are extremely high, and birds and beasts are extinct. The trees that grew on the top of the mountain were covered with frost.
"Old Dao, that bastard brother's method can be slightly improved on your kid. Qingyunzi said.
"What kind of improvement method?" Ye Xiaoer secretly used his skills to resist the constantly invading cold air.
Originally, this method only required the mastery of the ability to hear and distinguish the position. But since your kid has inherited the secret skill of the flying knife, the requirements must be higher. Qingyunzi said: "In addition to listening to the sound and identifying the position, you kid must also be accurate to the distance and quantity." ”
After speaking, Qing Yunzi took out a black cloth out of nowhere in his left hand and handed it to Ye Xiaoer.
"Cover this over your eyes. Qingyunzi said.
Ye Xiaoer took the black cloth and asked hesitantly, "What is this for?"
Qingyunzi said, "Of course it's cultivation." What's the matter, I'm afraid that the old way will hurt you?"
Ye Xiaoer suspiciously covered his eyes with a black cloth and tied a knot at the back of his head. Then I heard Qingyunzi say, "If you dare to take it off, then compare it with Lao Dao." ”
Ye Xiaoer nodded without tears, and then heard Qingyunzi say, "Take this." ”
Ye Xiaoer took the thing when he heard the sound and found that it was a cloth bag. When I put my hand in and touched it, it was full of gravel.
"What is this for?" Ye Xiaoer asked.
