Chapter 12: Learning the Sword in a Dream
As one of the two eliminators, roommate Ah Hai has also established a good friendship with Azule for more than a year, but the exam results cannot be changed, and everyone can't help each other as apprentices. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info so even if he was reluctant, but after a fierce ideological struggle, Ah Hai also finally rejected the decision of the Iron Casting Division to keep him as a handyman, he said that they were all apprentices who entered the craftsman's academy together, and he could only do handymanship in the future, while the brothers and sisters were able to learn to forge swords, and their identities and qualifications were high, and they still couldn't pass that hurdle. Ah Hai didn't dare to easily inform his parents and clansmen of the results of the elimination, otherwise it would be difficult for his family to gain a foothold in the tribe, so Ah Hai left behind the bold words of "I will definitely kill it back through other means" and left everyone.
Ahai's departure was a mixed blessing for Asul, as if the Cast Iron Division did not arrange for new apprentices to live in his dormitory, it would undoubtedly bring a lot of convenience and personal space for him to act in the future, and if the Cast Iron Division arranged for new apprentices to move in, he would not only have to adapt, but also be extremely careful to be vigilant against revealing his secrets. After thinking about it for a while, Azule decided that he couldn't trust luck and that fate could not simply be in the hands of others, so he decided to take the initiative to find his uncle who arranged room and board to test the possible arrangements for the future.
Azule made his position clear to his uncle, and took the initiative to ask himself to live alone, even if it was a room with a bad location, he was very willing, and he attributed the reason for choosing a single room to be able to concentrate on improving the technical level of sword casting and winning glory for the iron casting division. Very lucky, after his own active efforts, the uncle finally announced that since the apprentices' rooms were enough to live, the apprentices' room arrangements would remain unchanged for the time being.
Azul had secured a better environment for himself, and in the dead of night, he began to reflect on his current situation. The three tasks set for himself soon after entering the Iron Casting Division were only temporarily completed to ensure that he would not be eliminated in the first year, but there was still a long way to go to improve the skill and level of sword casting. For the first task, ask who the old man Fan Wenjie is and find the mystery hidden in this short sword, and the inquirer can only give up, but it seems that there are clues to find the secret in the sword, especially after trying to "drip blood as a guide", there is already a faint connection with the sword, but what to do next is still unknown, if you want to become stronger, looking for the secret hidden in the sword is an inevitable breakthrough. For the third task, there is no way to inquire about the news of Yu Pei and his life experience at the moment, so he can only put it on hold for the time being. Azul reflects on his progress over the past year and feels that he has not gained much in all aspects. In summary, the most important thing at the moment is to make yourself stronger, so that you are more likely to have the opportunity to find out your background.
Under the cold weather conditions of the Northern Barbarians, everyone was thickly wrapped, which reduced the possibility of leaking the secrets of the deep hidden sword, but there are no eternal secrets in the world, and people will always have a day when they are overlooked, and Azule felt a deep sense of urgency.
You may be living alone for a short period of time, so you must make the most of this time. In the dead of night, Azul drew the sword he had hidden with him, and once again separated his fingers with the blade, allowing the blood to smear on the sword. This time, however, the sword did not change at all, and it was not at all able to float in mid-air on its own like the first time. Azule was puzzled, thinking that this mystery must be something he could not solve at the moment. So what to do next? Azule made up his mind that he had to collect as much material as possible related to the Divine Weapon, and find more ways and possibilities to crack the secret of the sword.
Azule even thought of opening the sword, maybe hiding a martial arts secret book in the middle, but such an idea is crazy. This sword must not be easily destroyed, and Mr. Fan also said that the virtuous person should not have it himself, and there is no need to force it; Azul hid his sword and couldn't sleep for a long time, until he was really tired of his mind, and then he barely fell asleep in a daze.
Strange! I was already asleep, my body was no longer conscious, but my brain was still so clear, and there was a faint voice calling to me. Azul's mind drifted along the source of the sound. He saw a gray-haired old man with a blurred face, but he could vaguely see the face of the dead old Mr. Fan Wenjie. Azul had no fear, but felt that the old man had an amiable face. Azule tried to lean over, but his mind didn't move. I faintly heard Mr. Fan closing his eyes and reciting some words repeatedly. Azule listened attentively, they were all words composed of Central Plains characters, and he didn't know or write Central Plains characters, and he didn't know what the old man was talking about.
Azul's instincts told him that these words were very important, and that they might be the secret of his dream martial arts practice. If this is the case, you should keep it in mind and seek the opportunity to digest it slowly. I only heard the old man repeat it: "Sit cross-legged and calm your heart, relax and be natural." The lips and teeth are lightly closed, and the breathing is slow. The hands must be firm, the eyes must be level, and the divine light must be gathered to reach the heart of heaven. Enter the mud pellet and descend to the air pockets. If it exists, it is not used diligently. The dantian is warm, and the kidneys are like soup. Qi leads the veins, refining one's own merits. This is the introductory exercise "Washing the Pulp Sutra", all practitioners need to accumulate over time, insisting on day and night, size and 16 weeks to complement each other. ”
Azule understood the last sentence, it turned out that this was a valuable exercise, but he didn't know anything about the previous words, but he knew that it was extremely rare, so he memorized it alive. Azule was startled, and suddenly woke up from his dream, and found himself lying on the bed in his room, and he had indeed fallen asleep just now, and it turned out that he had learned the sword in his dream. He touched the sword on his chest and found that the sword became even colder, and there was even a buzzing trill, could this be the connection between himself and the sword?!
Azul repeated it many times, making sure that he memorized this awkward exercise word for word, and he didn't know what it meant. But then the problem came, I don't know if this exercise is suitable for my own cultivation, let alone how to cultivate, and I can't write it at all, and what's even more embarrassing is that I can't find someone else to write it for me. If you go to someone else to help you write like this, you will definitely be recognized, and you may even be killed. So what should I do? I can't ask the people around me for advice, or even ask others for advice, I can only rely on myself to understand sentence by sentence, and this is my new goal.
