14. You are still called a sword
He Qifang took Ye Gu through this huge blackfield, came to an ordinary door on the edge, and then said to Ye Gu: "I can only send you here, the old man has a strange temper, and the people who are looking for him to fight can only see him alone." After speaking, as soon as he pushed the door, the door opened, and a passage with no end in sight appeared in front of Ye Gu.
Ye Gu nodded at He Qifang, thanked him, and then entered the passage alone.
The passage is not wide, probably less than two meters, about three meters high, there are a weapon hanging on the walls on both sides every three steps, these weapons are varied, swords, guns, swords, meteor hammers, Emei thorns, judges' pens, and even some strange-shaped Qimen weapons, these weapons Ye Gu has never even seen.
When he walked to the middle of the passage, Ye Gu suddenly remembered music in his ears, the type of music seemed to be some kind of opera, but Ye Gu's memories of his previous and present lives did not understand opera, and he couldn't hear what kind of opera it was.
He understood the content of the opera singing, it was a story about a couple, the husband's name was Ganjiang, and the wife's name was Mo Xie.
This is a sad and tragic story: the cadre Mo Ye and his wife were killed by a prince, leaving a son, the son wanted to avenge his parents when he grew up, but the prince dreamed of this incident and the appearance of this orphan, so he painted a portrait of this person who was wanted for a lot of money, and the orphan could only run to the mountains and cry in the mountains.
At this time, a chivalrous man appeared and asked the orphan why he was crying, and the orphan told him about his life experience, and explained that he had no chance to take revenge now, but the chivalrous man said that if you give me your head, I will avenge you.
When the orphan heard this, he immediately killed himself, and the head fell to the ground at the moment of his death, and he went to stand upright, and the knight picked up the orphan's head, and said that I will live up to the trust, and the body fell.
Later, the knight took the head to the prince, the prince was overjoyed, and the knight said that this head was the head of a warrior, and it would be boiled in a cauldron for three days and three nights before it could rot, and the prince immediately ordered it to be done.
But three days later, not only was his head not rotten, but he was still floating in the pot, and the look on his face was very hideous. The knight said to the prince that this head needs to be watched by the prince before it will rot.
So the prince walked to the edge of the cauldron and looked at the head, the knight took the opportunity to cut off the prince's head, and the prince's head also fell into the pot, and then the knight cut off his own head, and the three heads were boiled in the pot, and the prince's guards couldn't tell who was the head of their master, so they could only sell the three heads as their own prince, and the place where the prince was buried was called the tomb of the three kings.
The tone of this opera is sometimes miserable and sometimes generational, and finally it is a bland ending, which sounds quite charming. Although Ye Gu didn't understand opera, he was also infected by the emotions of the story, and stopped to listen until the end of the song.
The play stopped, and an old voice sounded in the passage: "Do you say that the chivalrous man in the story is a fool?"
"No, it's smart. ”
"Oh?
"The prince is in a high position, and the knight will naturally not escape death if he kills the prince, and in the end he may drag down his relatives and friends, and now he has mixed his head with the head of the prince, and others don't even know what he looks like, so naturally he won't affect others. ”
"That's right. But he can not die, as long as he does not care about his business. The old voice said.
From the moment he asked the orphan why he was crying, he was doomed to die. ”
"Why?"
"Because he is a chivalrous man, when the road is uneven, he draws a sword to help, and he promises a thousand gold. This is not an idle matter for chivalrous. ”
"Oh, that's right, what about you?
"I don't count, at most I'm only a martial artist. ”
"Be frank enough, come in. After the old man's voice finished speaking, a hole opened in the wall beside Ye Gu, which turned into a door, and a spacious room appeared in front of Ye Gu.
The room was spacious, but there were not many things, except for a stove, a pier, and a small pool without water, an old man with a naked body, wearing silk pants, muscle knots, white hair, and a wrinkled face was sitting cross-legged on the ground, looking at Ye Gu.
Ye Gu walked in and immediately felt a great coercion, which was the feeling of being locked by a person whose internal strength was much purer than his own. It's like a fish swimming in the ice or a bird in a net. Even if you move, you have to use all your strength.
This person's cultivation is already the pinnacle of this world, Ye Gu's sword heart is running, and his whole body is full of breath and turns into an awe-inspiring sword qi, resisting the other party's coercion.
"Turning into a sword, your internal strength is weird. Then the coercion disappeared, and the old man spoke.
"I smiled. Ye Gu said.
"There's nothing ridiculous about it, you can turn your internal breath into sword qi, which shows that your understanding of the way of the sword is extremely profound. It's already good enough to accompany a good sword, you say, what kind of sword do you want?"
"A four-foot sword, with a sword body of three and a half feet, tempered by warm fire, repeated no more than a thousand times, needs to be quenched with strong water. The hilt of the sword is half a foot, and there must be two ringed dragon gauntlets, and the gauntlets and the fingers holding the sword need to be separated by two inches. ”
"En?" The old man's eyes lit up, he looked at Ye Gu and said, "Is a sword like yours still called a sword?"
"I think it's a sword. Ye Gu replied.
"Quenching with warm fire, forging less than thousands of times, the water of fiery water is quenched! The sword body must be hard, there will be no half of toughness, and the sword is a knife without toughness. You also have to learn the foreigner's red handguard, this handguard is bigger than the foreigner's Western sword, obviously you want to use the handguard as a Qimen weapon to lock and take the opponent's weapon, right? Young man, although the old man's swordsmanship is poor, he also knows that it is not right for you to practice swords like this. Waste your internal strength to turn your body into a sword. The old man said.
"My kendo is only two sections. Ye Gu said indifferently.
"Which two?"
"Simplify into complex, simplify complex. It's just a cycle. ”
After hearing this, the old man laughed and said, "Okay, take your sword in three days." In addition, you can pick a weapon from the outside and go, which is considered to be borrowed by the old man for the past three days. ”
Ye Gu clenched his fists and said, "Thank you." ”
The old man nodded, and at this time, the wall behind him opened, and a young man dressed in black appeared, and said to Ye Gu, "Distinguished guest, please." Ye Gu followed the black-clothed young man and left through the newly opened opening.
After Ye Gu left, at the entrance just now, he walked closer: "Mentor, how is it?"
"It's a strange person, and his internal strength and swordsmanship don't seem to belong to any of the sects I've seen, this person shouldn't be those famous disciples in the East. It's a casual practice. The old man said.
"Oh, this loose cultivator got into trouble with the Black Hawk guy today. He said wildly.
"Oh, then you're exposed?" asked the old man.
"Not really, I killed those people. And they don't have cameras on them. ”
"Well, then let that kid deal with Black Hawk himself, and if he's still alive in three days, he'll be waiting on the farm for him to get his sword. ”
"Yes, but I don't think this guy will survive, he's a madman, and he thinks martial arts can compete with high-tech weapons. He laughed wildly.
"Hey, the more crazy you are, the more unexpected it is. The old man said with a smile.
Ye Gu went back to the passage from another door at this time, chose a long sword with a simple peach wood sheath and a locust wood handle and left the factory located under the farm, and then went directly to the place where he had been attacked just now.
