There is an antique building complex in the northwest corner of the Chu Palace, with rows of buildings lined up one after another, all of which are red bricks and green tiles. Faintly seen from the outside, the weeping willows on the palace wall inside, very quiet and elegant. Only the gatehouse of the main gate is exceptionally tall and majestic, and there are three golden characters above the gatehouse: Keqing Mansion.

In the state of Chu, although the guest secretary is not a formal official position, not among the three princes and nine secretaries, but the status is extremely lofty, theoretically speaking, only the king of Chu has the right to transfer and use, and listen to the tune does not listen to the announcement, do not need to go to the court every day. When civil and military officials see Keqing, they all have to salute. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the teacher ceremony was not as complicated as that of later generations, but it was also necessary to bow his eyebrows and bend his waist, which was second only to treating the monarch. Therefore, it is also extremely noble and glorious to treat each other with a teacher's courtesy.

This very extensive Hakka Mansion is where Keqing lives, and the current owner of the house is a world-famous swordsman and a generation of soldiers.

At this time, Wei Yi was sitting on the Taishi chair in the study of the mansion. He doesn't look mighty, his slender figure is more than six feet, which is considered a relatively short stature in the Chu State; his face is white and beardless, a pair of triangular eyes are half-open and half-closed, and when they are opened, he will shoot two very sharp gazes; he has long hair and a shawl, his temples are very neatly cut, he is about fifty years old, he is dressed in a gray-white robe neatly and decently, and his hands on the chair are slender and powerful.

The young man standing on the left side of Wei Yu was tall and slender, with a pair of big eyes, turning around, looking clever and intelligent. The young man standing on the right side is short and fat, his eyes are slightly gloomy, but the corners of his lips are crooked, and he seems to be smiling but not smiling, and he will leave a very kind impression when they meet for the first time. These two young men, one fat and one thin, one tall and one short, are the two proud disciples of Wei Yu. The tall ones are called willows, and the short ones are called Zhu Fei, and they are all about twenty-five or sixteen years old.

There was a handsome young man standing in the hall, with eyes like stars and lips like Dan, it was Huang Xie, the cousin of the ninth son Xiong Huai and the nephew of Huang Guifei's mother's family. His other identity is that of Wei Yu.

Although Wei Yi is a world-famous swordsmanship master, there are many disciples, but he rarely accepts the children of the nobles as disciples, he thinks that most of the children of the nobles are arrogant and rude, arrogant and lazy, and they are unbearable, so the king of Chu has asked him to go to the palace to teach swordsmanship to the princes several times, but he has politely refused. However, Huang Xie is a special case, one of the few disciples of Wei Yi who was born in nobility. Although Huang Xie's qualifications are not outstanding, he is smart and witty, diligent and studious, and he can be familiar with the hundred schools of thought at a young age, and he can understand the way of the Spring and Autumn Period when he is a little older. Therefore, Wei Yi attaches great importance to this young disciple, and there is a faint meaning of inheriting the mantle.

Now, Wei Yi asked Huang Xie softly:

"Xie'er, Master heard that a few days ago, you were drinking outside the palace with several princes, and you actually met an assassin who assassinated the prince. Now, the king is furious, and the whole city is hunting for the murderer. I was worried that the king would inquire about me, so I summoned Xie'er to learn more about the incident. ”

When Huang Xie saw the master asking, he didn't dare to slack off, so he told Wei Yi everything he saw at that time. He spoke clearly and coherently, and narrated the whole incident clearly and completely.

Wei Yu leaned his head back in his chair, his eyes narrowed slightly, and listened quietly. When Huang Xie said that Tie Guan had no common prosthetic leg to hit Nineteen, and Nineteen skillfully avoided it with Tengyun Phantom Footwork, Wei Yi was slightly surprised and sat up straight unconsciously. When he heard that the dwarf used the strings as a weapon to trap Nineteen, and Nineteen actually teleported away strangely, Wei Yi's slightly narrowed eyes suddenly opened, leaned forward slightly, interrupted Huang Xie's narration, and asked in surprise:

"You said the Nineteenth Prince can teleport? Are you sure?"

Huang Xie replied with envy on his face and in an affirmative tone:

"That's right, it's teleportation! At that time, we all thought that the Nineteenth Prince would definitely die, because the dwarf made a sudden move, and we didn't have time to rescue him. But in the blink of an eye, the Nineteenth Prince magically teleported three feet away, making the dwarf's killing blow completely missed. ”

Wei Yi let out a thoughtful "oh", and then motioned for Huang Xie to continue.

When Huang Xie finished recounting the whole story, Wei Yi asked with concern:

"Is the nineteenth prince seriously injured?"

Huang Xie replied: "I heard the news from the palace that the nineteenth prince has a special physique, and now he has recovered as before. ”

"Hehe, there is such a magical physique, these nineteen princes must be born with different qualities, rare! rare!"

"I don't know where these nineteen princes are from, and which one is the master?"

Huang Xie said: "I heard that when the nineteenth prince was six years old, he went to Shinan Mountain to worship Mr. Shinanzi as a teacher, but for some reason, he went down the mountain and returned to the palace when he was eight years old. It is said that he is now learning from a guard named Sniper. ”

"Shi Nanzi? No wonder, no wonder! Shi Nanzi should be regarded as the ancestor of the contemporary chaotic cultivation style, and he is already over 100 years old, right? The 100-year-old patriarch accepted a doll as a disciple, and there are really some intriguing, and the nineteenth prince is extraordinary. Wei Yu muttered to himself, nodded and smiled for a while, shook his head and sighed for a while, and the expression on his face changed for a while.

After a while, Wei Yu asked Huang Xie again:

"Who is that sniper guard? How come I have never heard of it?

Huang Xie shook his head and said, "The disciple has never seen it, so I don't know where it came from. ”

Wei Yu said: "It's a pity that such a good material and beautiful jade, but he is taught by a guard." And Shinanzi must be dying, and he actually ignores the genius disciples, which is really against Bole's heart. After a pause, he continued: "However, this is also a rare opportunity, the old man has no choice but to come forward in person and accept the nineteenth prince as a disciple. ”

Huang Xie and his two senior brothers looked at each other, and they were both strange in their hearts. Wei Yi summoned Huang Xie to come, originally to ask about the assassination of the prince by Tianxiangju, but now he didn't ask how the murderer was, nor did he analyze how to arrest the murderer, but he was endlessly concerned about the nineteenth prince, and the master wanted to accept the nineteenth prince as a disciple, which was really weird. Because, Shizun never took the initiative to accept apprentices, let alone accept a prince as an apprentice.

Disciple Yang Liu couldn't help the doubts in his heart, and asked:

"No matter how good the nineteenth prince's endowment is, he is already a disciple of Shi Nanzi, can the master still let him belong to my Yue Nu Sword Sect?"

Wei Yi turned his face and said in a tone of lesson:

"You are still a disciple who has followed me for many years, how can you be so shallow-minded? Don't you know that Bole is not common, and how can Maxima be common? The nineteenth prince is a beautiful jade in the world, how can I let him be buried deep in the mud and sand? You remember, those who seek the Tao must not have a view of the door, and those who teach must not be confined to the dispute of schools. Since the Nineteenth Prince has already left Shinan Mountain, what does it matter if I take him under my sect now? I will immediately ask the king to let him agree to the nineteenth prince to study art under my disciple. ”

Yang Liu was quite unconvinced by Wei Yi's lesson, in his opinion, since the Nineteenth Prince was a disciple of the Chaos Cultivation Sect, it was not appropriate for him to join the Yue Nu Sword Sect again, otherwise, once the two factions clashed, how would the Nineteenth Prince deal with himself? This truth was obvious, and he didn't believe that Shizun didn't even understand this truth. Moreover, the name of the master is all over the world, and there are as many people who seek a teacher as a carp crossing the river, and they can't push it out, so why bother to lower their dignity and find other people's disciples as apprentices? The master must have other plans, otherwise, it will not make sense in any case. However, although Yang Liu was suspicious and did not agree with Wei Yu's magnificent explanation, he did not dare to raise objections to the master's decision, so he had to keep silent.

Huang Xie, who was pondering on the side, interjected: "Master asks to see the king, and the king will definitely ask about the arrest of the murderer, and the master must be prepared." ”

Wei Yu sneered: "If I'm not mistaken, those three assassins are the three ghosts of the hidden capital that have haunted the Wuyue area in recent years. These three people have bad deeds, they are haunting, and they are also strong in martial arts and extraordinary in their means, and it is extremely difficult to capture them for a while. As for the investigation of the behind-the-scenes commanders, it is even more involved in the dispute between the crown prince of the Chu Palace, and I don't want to get into it as a teacher. Therefore, if the king asks me, I can only say that I don't know, and I just do it perfunctory. However, it is better to accept the nineteen princes as apprentices sooner rather than later, hehe, presumably the king will not refute my face. In addition, once the Nineteenth Prince enters my door, you must not have a view of the door, but must be sincere. ”

The three disciples hurriedly and obediently replied, "No," but Yang Liu and Zhu Fei had some uncomfortable feelings in their hearts. They had never seen Shizun value a junior like this, and it was reasonable for them to be jealous.

Wei Yi ignored the thoughts of the three disciples and said to Huang Xie:

"Tomorrow, you will enter the palace with me. ”

Nineteen didn't know that Wei Yu wanted to take him as an apprentice, and these days, he had been indulging in cultivation. Through the last battle of life and death, he became more and more aware of the magic and importance of the two great divine skills of Tengyun Phantom and Shapeshift, if it were not for these two divine skills to protect himself, the three ghosts of the Youdu would have already succeeded, and he would have already become a corpse.

These two divine techniques are actually composed of four techniques. Among them, soaring clouds and shifting shapes are footwork, while phantom and shadow changing are body methods. The so-called Tengyun is to be like the Nine Heavens Divine Dragon, riding the clouds up, leaping into the air, practicing aerial footwork; the so-called shape shifting is the legendary teleportation technique, which is the space teleportation footwork. The so-called phantom is to describe the body as fast as a phantom, dazzling, and impossible to capture; the so-called shadow change is similar to a doppelganger, of course, it is not a clone in the real sense, but a shadow condensed with true qi, so that the enemy is confused when attacking, and can only attack the afterimage left behind, and the real body has long since fled.

If Tengyun Phantom still belongs to the category of martial arts, then the shapeshifting and shadow change is close to a divine skill. Especially the art of shapeshifting, once it is completed, it is unpredictable. Sniper once told Nineteen that the advanced art of shapeshifting can teleport from underground to the ground, from the air to the water, from indoor to outdoor, without being affected by any external objects, which can be described as extremely magical.
