At this time, in an independent small building on the mountain behind "Ling Tianzong", Elder Liu sat upright, and below sat a Confucian student in his fifties, dressed in a dark blue robe, with a wisp of goatee on his pointed chin, it was that Master Zheng. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info A month ago, Master Zheng came to "Ling Tianzong" with Zhou Jin's handwritten letter and prepared a generous gift. It's a pity that Elder Liu didn't have time to receive it, so Master Zheng had to wait at the foot of the mountain for more than ten days, and it wasn't until today that he saw the powerful elder of the "Ling Tianzong".

"In Xia Zheng Zhi, I have seen Elder Liu. Master Zheng didn't dare to be careless, and bowed down and said.

Elder Liu nodded and said with a smile: "Master Zheng, Lord Zhou is doing well today, why don't you come and sit down?"

Master Zheng heard the coldness in his words, and hurriedly explained: "Lord Zhou is fine today, but he really can't leave everything in his body. After this period of time, the adults will definitely visit in person, and I ask Elder Liu for forgiveness. ”

"Master Zheng is too careful, I am an old friend with Master Zhou, and I am very worried about it, so I have this question. Elder Liu smiled.

"Elder Liu is right. Master Zheng smiled, and then said, "This time, I came here on the orders of my lord, and prepared a small gift for the elders to express my heart, and asked the elders to accept them with a smile. ”

After speaking, Master Zheng made a look, and the three big men standing behind him hurriedly stepped forward. The three of them were all holding a long wooden box in their hands, and when they opened it, they saw a picture scroll in the first wooden box, a sword in the second wooden box, and a big black stone in the third wooden box, which looked like no less than 100 catties.

Master Zheng chuckled, stood up, walked in front of the first big man, picked up the scroll and slowly unfolded it. Elder Liu looked up, there was a mountain, a river and an attic in the painting, the layout was simple, the brushwork was as stiff as a knife and an axe and chisel, and after looking at it for a while, his eyes were a little painful, and he suddenly lost his voice and said: "Master Zheng, this is Wu Daozi's landscape painting?"

"Elder Liu has good eyesight, and this painting is from Wu Daozi's hand. Master Zheng nodded and said with a smile, "It's a pity that this painting was left by Wu Daozi when he was in his sixties, and his swordsmanship was a little worse at that time." ”

Elder Liu shook his head and said with a smile, "Master Zheng is serious, and the old man has thanked Master Zhou." ”

After speaking, Elder Liu stepped forward, picked up the scroll and looked at it carefully for a while, Master Zheng stood quietly aside, smiling without saying a word. This Wu Daozi is a master of swordsmanship three hundred years ago, known as "the world's swordsmanship is unparalleled!" This person was born in Tanhua, and his painting skills are even better, and after practicing swords, he integrated swordsmanship into painting, and became a master of his own generation. It is rumored that Wu Daozi hid his swordsmanship in the scroll and kept it, so his scroll is most sought after by those who practice swords. Elder Liu has been begging for many years but can't, but now he got his wish, and he immediately took it into his arms.

"I'll bring the Elder's words. Master Zheng smiled, walked to the second wooden box, and said, "Elder Wu, this sword also has a bit of a history, Elder might as well give it a try." ”

Elder Liu frowned, stepped forward a few steps and drew his sword. The sword was three feet and an inch long, and its whole body was blackened, as if it were burning, and there was no luster at all. Elder Liu flicked his right hand, and the blade of the sword made a muffled sound of "Deng", as if it was striking on wood. Elder Liu's eyes lit up suddenly, and he poured his internal strength into his sword. As soon as the sword body lit up, a pale cyan halo flowed through the sword body, and a three-inch sword light appeared on the tip of the sword. Elder Liu waved his hand casually, and the wooden box where the sword was placed was instantly broken into three pieces and fell to the ground.

"Elder Liu, good swordsmanship. Master Zheng clapped his hands and praised.

"Dragon pattern wood, Lord Zhou is very handy. Elder Liu groaned and looked down, the scaly patterns on the sword body were neatly arranged and clearly visible.

Elder Liu clenched his sword tightly, as if he was reluctant to put it down. Dragon pattern wood is a treasure in the wood, growing on the dragon vein, a hundred years long an inch, a thousand years to become a material! Dragon pattern wood is hard, not under the black iron, and the fit with the internal strength is far more than the black iron ten times, is the best choice for the master of Waigang to make weapons. Even though the "Ling Tianzong" family has a great cause, there are not a few swords made of dragon pattern wood in the sect, whether it is in terms of seniority or martial arts, it is not something that Elder Liu can get!

Master Zheng waited for a while, walked to the third wooden box and stopped, looking at the stones in the box, there was a trace of fear. Master Zheng raised his hand, and the big man walked up to Elder Liu respectfully with a wooden box.

Elder Liu glanced at Master Zheng and said puzzledly, "Master Zheng, what is this?"

"Elder Liu, you can tell it when you touch it. Master Zheng smiled slightly, and he didn't say anything.

Elder Liu frowned and stretched out his hand to touch the stone, his whole body suddenly trembled, and he shouted in a lost voice: "Sword intent!"

"It is the sword intent, my family lord wishes the elder to break through the outer gang quadruple as soon as possible and go further. Master Zheng hurriedly said.

Elder Liu sighed and said slowly, "Master Zheng, is there something wrong with your family?"

Master Zheng didn't hide it, and immediately took out Zhou Jin's handwritten letter, handed it over with both hands, bowed down and said, "Elder Liu, my family does have something to ask for, and I ask Elder Liu to look at it." ”

Elder Liu took it with both hands, and the words "Elder Liu personally enlightened" were written on the envelope, and it was indeed written by Zhou Jin himself. The letter mentioned the cause of the incident, focusing on Zhao Xinming's pretending to be a disciple of "Ling Tianzong" and forging the "Wang Ziming" sect's waist card, and finally asked Elder Liu to help, capture Zhao Xinming, and hand it over to Master Zheng to deal with Yunyun.

Elder Liu read the letter and sneered, "What a Zhao Xinming, you dare to pretend to be a disciple of my 'Ling Tianzong'! Master Zheng, do you know where Zhao Xinming is now?"

Master Zheng was overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "Elder Liu, more than ten days ago, I heard from the people of the Xinyang Royal Mansion that Zhao Xinming had already come to the 'Ling Tianzong', and now he was near the sect. ”

Elder Liu nodded and said, "Master Zheng, tomorrow is the old man's seventieth birthday, you might as well drink a glass of water and wine." After his birthday, the old man will definitely use the power of the sect to track down the whereabouts of this person. ”

"Thank you, Elder Liu. Master Zheng hurriedly thanked.

Elder Liu was overjoyed when he got three treasures, a painting, a sword, and a stone, and immediately arranged for Master Zheng to live on the mountain. Elder Liu's small building and Zhao Xinhua's master, Elder Feng's residence, were both in a mountain col, not far apart. Master Zheng lived upstairs, and when he looked out, he saw a disciple of "Ling Tianzong" in green clothes not far away who was practicing swords, and his demeanor was a little similar to Zhao Xinming, and he was immediately surprised. After looking at it for a while, I saw an outer disciple leading a person over. This person is about seventeen or eighteen years old, handsome, seven feet tall, and it is Zhao Xinming who he has been looking for for more than a year!
