Eight out of the mountain

This time, Lin Zexuan was no longer as anxious as before, but observed the direction and technique of the old man's sword blocking. Lin Zexuan's swordsmanship was originally taught by the old man, and the two of them had the same swordsmanship, only the difference in experience and proficiency was the difference. Therefore, the old man's sword routine, Lin Zexuan can be seen at a glance. After more than a dozen swords came out in succession, Lin Zexuan's eyes lit up, because he saw that the old man stopped his sword body to the right, revealing a large gap in his left shoulder, and the tip of Lin Zexuan's sword was facing the old man's left. He seized the opportunity, did not make any more movements to withdraw the sword, only shook the sword, and stabbed directly at the old man's left shoulder. This time, the old man seemed too late to block his sword, and saw that the sword was about to plunge into the old man's shoulder. With a "whoosh", the old man dodged away, separated from Lin Zexuan by a distance of more than ten meters, and put the sword into the scabbard with a smile on his face. "Okay, that's the end of today's exams. He said very happily to Lin Zexuan.

"But the sword hasn't finished yet!" Lin Zexuan was a little dissatisfied, just had the opportunity to break through his master's defense, and the master stopped fighting.

"What I want to teach you today, you've learned. After all, I didn't expect you to beat me now, even in this world, people who can get close to me can be counted with one pair of hands. It's great that you're at this age. The old man continued.

"What do you want to teach me? Does it mean guarding against arrogance and rashness?" Lin Zexuan's mind turned quickly.

"Yes, what I want to teach you is to be calm and observant. That's the last thing I'm going to teach you. The old man's smile faded.

"Ah, Master, what do you mean by this, why is it the last?" Lin Zexuan asked in astonishment.

"When you grow up, you can't stay in this mountain for the rest of your life, this vast world is where good men go. The old man looked at Lin Zexuan with some reluctance.

Lin Zexuan was speechless for some reason.

In fact, Lin Zexuan still yearns for the world outside the mountain, from childhood to adulthood, he has pulled the broken branch more than once, and asked her what the world outside the mountain is like. But when the day of leaving the mountain and going outside the mountain really came, the mood was very complicated. How can this young man's mind be clear?

Zhizhi was not surprised by the old man's decision at all, because she knew that Lin Zexuan could not stick to her side forever, and any child would have a time to grow up. Although there was a lot of reluctance in her heart, she didn't say it, just silently packed for Ze Xuan.

At night, Ze Xuan climbed lightly onto the bed of the broken branch and hugged the broken branch like he did when he was a child. Seeing him coming, Ori only sighed slightly. "Sister, I don't want to leave, I can't bear you. Lin Zexuan said to the broken branch, as if he was a little choked.

"Pee, you are stupid, can you follow your sister for the rest of your life? This world is so big, that's where you should go. My sister can't bear you, but I also know that I have to let go. When you go out, you will meet a lot of friends that you like, and you will also meet girls that you like, so you will know how lonely and boring it is in the mountains. Zhizhi touched Zexuan's head lying in her arms and said softly.

"I'll just like my sister. Ze Xuan told Zhi with certainty, and then Ze Xuan said, "Sister, why don't you go down the mountain with me." “

"Hehe, if you still follow your sister, you will never grow up. Besides, Master, his old man also needs someone to take care of him, and I can't just leave him like this. “

Lin Zexuan listened helplessly. It was hard for him to imagine how he could live a day when he couldn't see the broken branches and smell the reassuring smell of the broken branches.

In this way, Ze Xuan lay in the arms of the broken branch and gradually fell asleep.

Today, Zexuan is going down the mountain. The old man solemnly gave a final explanation to Lin Zexuan.

"You can go wherever you want to go down the mountain this time, but Master has two things to tell you. The old man said to Lin Zexuan.

"Master, please speak. Lin Zexuan didn't have the mind of a hippie smile at this time, and his face was very serious.

"First, the jade pendant around your neck should be your family's family seal, if you have the opportunity, with this jade pendant, find your family, this is also a good thing. Second, you go to the grave of my deceased wife, worship my deceased wife for me, and kowtow to your master and mother. The old man patted Lin Zexuan on the shoulder.

"The disciple obeyed the order, but I don't know where the master is buried?" Lin Zexuan asked with his fists clenched.

"Hahaha, it's up to you to find it yourself, go to the rivers and lakes, break the rivers and lakes, if you know everything, what is it?" the old man laughed. With that, the old man took out the blue iron sword he had worn with him from inside the room.

"This is the Nine Heavens Qingyun Sword, haha, the name was given by myself. In fact, the material is an ordinary iron sword, which can cut through any famous sword on the rivers and lakes, but I believe that if the people who know it today are not dead. Today, I pass it on to you, and you will walk the rivers and lakes as my disciple. The old man was in high spirits, and said to Lin Zexuan very proudly.

"Eh, this master, you have never told me for so many years, what is your name" Lin Zexuan listened to what the old man said, and said a little speechlessly.

"Haha, you'll know when you go down the mountain. The old man looked very proud, like an old skinny monkey with his tail cocked.

"Eh" Lin Zexuan wiped the sweat on his head, thinking to himself, is my master reliable?

It was the broken branches that sent Zexuan down the mountain. Zexuan wants to kowtow to the white harrier before leaving, since he was a child, he has listened to Zhizhi talk about how the white harrier and a group of people sacrificed to protect him, so Lin Zexuan still respects and appreciates the white harrier from the bottom of his heart. Zexuan knelt in front of dozens of graves in Wangqin Village one by one and bowed three times. Broken branches are buried in front of the grave of the white harrier and his wife, and the mountain ginseng and snow clams she dug up are what she has to do every time she comes to Wangqin Village.

After the worship, Zhizhi explained in detail how to live outside the mountain: "You must pay money to buy other people's things." Do you know? I put the broken silver and copper coins in your white money bag, and there are a few gold bars from the master at the innermost layer of the package. When talking to those you don't know, you must be kind, and you must not draw your sword without saying a word. I'm afraid that you are too anxious and clash with others, even if you have good martial arts, but a good man is hard to beat. And you eat."

"Okay sister, I know everything, don't say it, I've said it a few times. Ze Xuan was a little impatient when he listened, and interrupted the broken branch.

Seeing that Zexuan was a little bored, Zhizhi held back the words in his mouth. Those big eyes stared at Ze Xuan without blinking, as if if Ze Xuan would disappear with a swoop if he didn't look at him.

Lin Zexuan saw the appearance of the broken branch, and couldn't help but step forward and hugged the broken branch tightly. He buried his head deep in Orizhi's neck, and inhaled the scent of Orizhi's body, as if trying to imprint it firmly in his mind.

"Okay, I'm sixteen years old, and I'm still like a child, ashamed. Ori said softly with a smile on his face.

I don't know how long it took for Zexuan to let go of the broken branches. After a long farewell, Zhizhi finally sent Lin Zexuan on the road.

Looking at Ze Xuan, who was gradually disappearing on the horizon, tears somehow poured out of Zhizhi's face.

The old man on the hill still looked so proud, walking around the courtyard with his head held high and squinting. It seems that after imagining Ze Xuan coming down the mountain, he showed his skills, and people recognized Ze Xuan as his swordsmanship, and praised the picture of drunk Qianli accepting a good apprentice. Suddenly, the old man cried out with an "oops". "I forgot to tell him to go south and cross the Shanhaiguan, if he goes north, there will be no people, the ice and snow world, how can I pass on the reputation of the first master in the world?" the old man patted his head regretfully, and kept stomping on the ground with his foot.
