Chapter 18: The Storm

In the early morning of the Black Mountain Islands, there is a thick fog everywhere, and there are occasional boats coming and going on the lake, and the lake water is not alarmed.

In the lake near Wanshi Island, a figure poked out of the water, lying leisurely on the water, looking at the morning sun rising from the lake in the clouds, the early morning sun is trying to pierce the fog and bring a trace of warmth.

The figure shook his hands and feet, floating on the water, and when the mist drifted away, revealing this person's face, it turned out to be the steward of the Tibetan Sect Pavilion, the young man A Jie. He expertly manipulated the current, swimming up and down like a fish in the water.

It wasn't until the sun gradually rose and the fog slowly dissipated that Ah Jue crawled out of the water and came to the shore. With clothes on the shore, Ah Jue grabbed a rag that was thrown aside, wiped off his hair and water, put on his clothes, hummed a strange tune, shook the unwrapped belt in his hand, and walked all the way to the Tibetan Pavilion without an image.

"The water of the waves is clear, you can wet me, and the water of the waves is turbid, you can wet me to ......"

Ah Jue came to the closed door of the Tibetan Sect Pavilion, where there were already a lot of waiting Lingjing Sect disciples, they saw the wandering skeleton of Ah Jue, most of them had dislike written in their eyes, but the good cultivation made them not express it, just waited quietly. Ah Jue didn't pay attention to their gaze, and out of nowhere he found a bunch of keys, skillfully found one of the keys, opened the door of the Tibetan Sect Pavilion, and began the day's work.

"Borrow books, return books, find books! Borrow, return books, find books! It's really boring~" Ah Jue didn't know where to find a handful of melon seeds, while swallowing melon seeds, he held a pen to write and draw on the big book on the table, recording the situation of each Lingjingmen disciple borrowing and returning books, only to see another person come to the table, so he bit the pen and asked, "Borrow books, return books, find books?"

"It was the ancient island lord who asked me to come to you, and he said that there was something left for you, let me get it. ”

The slightly childish crisp voice came from a young girl, Ah Jue raised his head, looked her up and down, and was a little surprised: "Ah...... Ahh Ning Wushu, you're not dead yet, are you?"

Ning Wushu spent a lot of effort last night to settle down that fairy-like woman, and because he thought that there were weapons and martial arts suitable for him to practice, he was very excited, and he woke up early in the morning, and there was nothing to do, so he came to the Tibetan Sect Pavilion with dark circles under his eyes. I wanted to get something as I was told, even if I had to face that annoying Ah Jue, I was still in a good mood and a little excited, who would have thought that as soon as this young man opened his mouth, he would greet her, "Not dead yet?", which made Ning Wushu, who was usually not very short-tempered, almost want to punch him in the face.

Seeing that the girl's face darkened instantly, Ah Jue didn't care, "Hehe" laughed dryly, closed the big book, and said, "The ancient island master has ordered, let's go, take you to take things." ”

The nine-story Tibetan Sect Pavilion, the last time Ah Jue took Ning Wushu to take the five lakes and the four seas, it was on the sixth floor, but this time the two of them climbed all the way to the top of the building. Ning Wushu had heard that the top three layers were stored in the essence of the hundred schools of thought, and she also read when she was at home in Hangning before, but what she read was basically Confucianism, and what she read when she was a child was "Three Character Classic", "Hundred Family Names", and "Thousand Character Text". Later, I also read some poetry and Analects, but that's all, she has heard some of the hundreds of schools, what Mohists, Legalists and the like, but she doesn't know much.

At this time, in the bookshelves they passed along the way, Ning Wushu saw a lot of books that they had not seen before. Like "Tao Te Ching" and "Warring States Policy", I have heard of it before, but I have never heard of "On the Essence of the Six Schools" and "The Book of Shang Jun" and the like.

They didn't stop in front of these bookshelves, Ah Jue took Ning Wushu to a small door, took out a bunch of keys from his waist, and searched for a long time before finally opening the small door. Behind the door is a small warehouse, and as soon as the door is opened, a large amount of dust blows in the face, which shows that no one has been here for a long, long time.

Ning Wushu is a little girl who loves beauty and cleanliness, and when she saw the dust, she subconsciously took two steps back, but Ah Jue didn't care at all, waved her hand and went into the small warehouse.

"Where...... Where...... Alas, who hid it, it's so hard to find...... Ahhh

Soon, Ah Jue retreated from the small warehouse, holding a large black wooden box in his hand. You can see that the box has words written and engraved on it, but because it is covered with dust, you can't see anything clearly. Ah Jue handed the box to Ning Wushu: "Ah, that's it, the old man gave it to you." ”

Ning Wushu carefully took the box, took out a towel and patted the dust on it, only to see the word "shocking" written on the box. Before she could open the box, she suddenly heard a familiar voice behind her.

"Ah Jue, you are here, come here. Hmm? There are no books, so you can come along. ”

Ning Wushu turned around, and it was Yun Feiyu who came. It's been a month since I last saw him. It is said that Yun Feiyu never accepts apprentices, so he can't learn anything from him, so Ning Wushu hardly goes to Xiaoyao Island.

But Yun Feiyu helped her a lot after all, although they didn't like each other in the big and small rooms, but since she came here, it was basically Yun Feiyu who was dealing with her affairs, and Ning Wushu also regarded him as a teacher in his heart. At this moment, he summoned, and Ning Wushu held the wooden box and followed with Ah Jue.

But at the same time, Ning Wushu was also a little puzzled, looking at Yun Feiyu's appearance, it seemed that he had come specifically to find Ah Jue, but now he brought himself, what was he going to do?

The answer was soon revealed. Yun Feiyu led the two of them to a terrace on the top floor of the Tibetan Sect Pavilion, sat down at a table, and said to Ah Duel, "Ah Duel, you can write your own opinion on the chapter I told you to read yesterday...... I'll take a look in half an hour. ”

Ah Jue, who is usually a scoundrel, was very honest at this time, nodded in response, and immediately sat down and began to sharpen ink and write, which made Ning Wushu a little stunned for a while.

"Think it's weird?" Yun Feiyu smiled at Ning Wushu, "It's not a big deal. Ah Du's parents are illiterate, but since he is an outer disciple of my Spirit Mirror Sect, there is nothing wrong with learning some knowledge. Two years ago I found out that he was interested in my writings, so I taught him about it, and that's it. ”

Ning Wushu tilted his head, looked at Ah Jue who was writing with a serious face beside him, a little uncomfortable, and at the same time remembered something, turned his head and asked Yun Feiyu: "But, don't you never accept apprentices?"

"It's not an apprentice...... Yun Feiyu replied lightly, "It's a little friend." By the way, I heard that Uncle Shi went to guide you last night?"

"Hmm. Ning Wushu didn't hide it, and simply put the wooden box on the table. The wooden box was so large that it took up more than half of the table, and Ah Jue glanced at her dissatisfied, moved to the side, and continued to concentrate on writing his words.

"Shocking ......" Yun Feiyu stretched out a hand, stroked it on the wooden box, and nodded with a smile: "Uncle Shi is indeed the senior who has the most extensive knowledge and the deepest understanding of martial arts in my Spirit Mirror Sect, we didn't expect that you could practice this." Turn it on. ”

Ning Wushu let out an "oh", raised his hand and opened the box, only to see one arrow after another lying in the box, each arrow was pitch black, from the arrow to the arrow feather was black, quiet and solemn, cold and terrifying, but there was a small piece of blue feathers on the tail feathers of each arrow, like a drop of mountain spring dotted in the night.

"Arrows?" Ning Wushu exclaimed.

"That's right. Yun Feiyu stretched out his hand and took out an arrow from the box, held it flat in front of him, and said: "Thirty-six thundering arrows, this is a gift from a senior of the Heavenly King Sect in the previous dynasty, the arrows are all made of thousands of refined iron, which can break through gold cracked stones and are indestructible. In fact, there was also a storm bow that was built together at that time, but it was later lost, leaving only these thirty-six arrows. ”

"That'...... Without a bow, how can I use arrows......" Ning Wushu asked stupidly, and also took out an arrow from the box and held it in his hand, only to feel that it was cold and heavy in his hand, and there was an indescribable smell.

Yun Fei Yuyun said lightly: "Bows are everywhere, can't you just find one to use first?"

"Oh...... But I don't know how to shoot arrows. ”

β€œ......”

In the next half hour, in Yun Feiyu's words, it was he who instructed Ning Wushu "quite patiently and thoroughly" on the bow and arrow.

The bow and arrow is a thing that few people use as the main weapon for cultivation. Because this thing doesn't have too many esoteric ways in it, to put it bluntly, it is fast, accurate, and ruthless, and it doesn't need any talent and understanding at all, as long as you master the basic way of exerting force, you just keep practicing, practicing and practicing. However, no matter how strong you practice archery, it can't get out of all kinds of routines like knives, guns and clubs, and attack from all kinds of wonderful and delicate angles, and once the arrow is off the string, it is out of its control. At the same time, there is no way to defend well with a bow and arrow, and once the enemy enters the body, there is often no power to resist.

Therefore, bows and arrows have always been only equipment in the army or tools of hunters, and martial arts warriors use bows and arrows, which are generally only occasionally used as auxiliaries. Of course, there have been several first-class masters with special bows and arrows on the rivers and lakes, but they all take a very special path, they are all the experience of shooting arrows and arrows, and they are the fighting methods that have been honed with their bodies for many years, and they are almost impossible to replicate, so they are basically lost.

And the most basic reason why Gu Kunlun suggested that Ning Wushu choose the way of bow and arrow is that this thing actually does not need to be taught by hand, in the environment of such a top martial arts sect as the Lingjing Gate, as long as Ning Wushu enters the door in this way, his level will not be low in the future. In addition, if the five lakes and seas of her cultivation are combined with the way of the bow and arrow, the power that bursts out is definitely something that no one can resist. One can imagine how amazing an arrow can be shot with the explosive power of the heart method of the five lakes and four seas in the future after Ning Wushu's martial arts has achieved a small success.

Of course, this martial arts path is not easy to walk, there is no one to guide and no lessons from the past, Ning Wushu can only explore it by himself and slowly run in. However, there is no better way now, and this sword will not be able to reach the top if it takes a biased path.

"Practice hard, if you want to beat me in ten years, you can't let up for a day. Yun Feiyu laughed and put the arrow in his hand back into the box. On that side, Ah Jue finally finished writing, he wrote more than a dozen pieces of paper freely, Ning Wushu peeked at it, his handwriting was very messy, obviously he hadn't practiced well, but he wrote every word very neatly, and he could see that he was very attentive. When Ah Jue handed these papers to Yun Feiyu, he was obviously relieved.

"Hehe, narcissist, I'm going to write very carefully this time, and I'm absolutely scared of you! Hengdao is mainly broken, so you know how to use contradictions and interests to create cracks, didn't you tell me last time that this is the essence of Zonghengjia? I wrote a lot this time, that is, to argue that Zongdao is the king! Absolutely you are speechless!"

Yun Feiyu didn't pay much attention to Ah Jue calling him a "narcissist", so he took the stack of papers and said with a smile: "If you want me to be speechless, you are still 108,000 miles away." You yourself advocate the horizontal way, how can you write the essence of the vertical way? Extremely naΓ―ve! Hmm...... Okay, no book, you go first. ”

Ning Wushu nodded, picked up the wooden box and turned to leave. After taking two steps, I heard Yun Feiyu and Ah Jue arguing there, and suddenly felt a little envious. She stopped, turned around and asked, "Zongheng family...... What is it?"
