Chapter 103: The Past Is Empty (1)
"Khooth!"
Shen Lingxiao had a dagger in his hand, sealed the sword, broke the net, and the tip of the blade was like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter, stabbing Yun Lingzi's throat.
Yun Lingzi didn't expect that his proud sword move would have such a big flaw, his complexion changed sharply, and he was busy dodging obliquely, and his expression was a little embarrassed.
Shen Lingxiao was unforgiving, stepping on three steps, using a dagger as a sword, and attacking seven moves in a row with the nine-star sword technique.
These seven moves are like lightning and thunder, all of which must be saved by attacking the enemy, Rao is Yun Lingzi's cultivation is profound, and he was also forced to retreat, and once he was almost stabbed in the left rib.
Shen Lingxiao didn't dare to fight, his figure suddenly fell upside down, and with a "click", his back broke through the window lattice and rolled into the courtyard.
The sound of breaking through the air suddenly rose, and a glittering round shadow slashed Shen Lingxiao's figure, Shen Lingxiao reacted very quickly, rolled and dodged, and with a "bang", the trouser tube broke, and a few points of blood spilled.
Seeing that the thing was about to hit the bluestone slab on the ground, but it suddenly stopped and turned, and slashed towards his chest and abdomen like a shadow, Shen Lingxiao was shocked, and hurriedly struggled to slash out.
Kan Kan jumped into the air, another round shadow hit silently, Shen Lingxiao suddenly felt a pain in his left calf, he had been struck by that thing, snorted, and fell on his back.
After the object struck its target, its speed suddenly slowed down, and it flew upside down, through the window, into the room, and into the sleeve of the hyacinth on the kang.
Shen Lingxiao glanced at it, but he saw it clearly, it turned out to be a delicate knife, about nine inches long, thin and tough, like a knife not a knife, like a sword not a sword, on the handle, connected to a slender iron chain, controlled in the hands of Hyacinth.
He was no stranger to this kind of blade. In the Valley of Providence that day, Broken Hongzi shot Tang Qing before he died, using such a blade, the difference is only that Broken Hongzi did not have an iron chain tied to that body. From the point of view of attainment, this hyacinth is still higher than the broken rainbow.
"Put down your blade!" Yun Lingzi jumped out like a bird, and pointed his long sword at Shen Lingxiao's throat.
Shen Lingxiao let out a long sigh, threw the dagger, and was kicked away by Yun Lingzi.
"Don't ...... Don't hurt him!" I don't know when, Zhong Zhiling had already broken in, and said urgently: "Eighth Uncle, please be merciful!"
Yun Lingzi snorted coldly and returned the sword into the sheath.
Shen Lingxiao covered his blood-gushing left calf, and the blood instantly stained the back of his hand red.
"Zhiling, wrap him up!" Hyacinth commanded in a deep voice.
Zhong Zhiling hurriedly ran out, and after a while, holding gauze and wound medicine in his hand, he hurriedly ran in, and quickly wrapped Shen Lingxiao's wounds.
Shen Lingxiao thanked him and let him help him back to the house and sit down.
"Just now, the situation forced me to hurt the young man, don't blame it!" Hyacinth said apologetically.
Shen Lingxiao smiled bitterly, glanced at him, then at Yun Lingzi, shook his head and said, "The junior is not as good as others, there is nothing to say." Just send it down!"
Hyacinth smiled strangely, raised his hand at Zhong Zhiling, and said, "Zhiling, you go out!"
Zhong Zhiling didn't dare to disobey, but he couldn't rest assured that Shen Lingxiao would answer, but he still refused to leave.
"Don't worry, we won't hurt him!" Hyacinth naturally understood his intentions.
Zhong Zhiling put his mind at ease, walked out lightly, and closed the door with his backhand.
Hyacinth looked at Shen Lingxiao with a smile, raised his thumb and praised: "Shen Shaoxia, it's really good!"
Shen Lingxiao muttered: "It's just a defeated general! don't ridicule the juniors!"
Hyacinth Zhengse said: "Heartfelt words! In my Kongtong faction, whether it is martial arts or reaction, there is no one who is as young as a young man!"
Yun Lingzi heard him praise Shen Lingxiao, thinking that he had not only been unable to restrain him, but was almost stabbed, his face was embarrassed, and he lowered his head.
Shen Lingxiao couldn't understand why he was going forward, so he simply stopped saying nothing and was ready to wait and see what happened.
"Shen Shaoxia, just now your move of 'breaking the army out of the mountain' could have stabbed the eighth junior brother...... But you didn't, and so you were very grateful. β
"Aren't the seniors also merciful? Otherwise, this left leg of the junior will definitely be abolished!"
"Hehe, it's you who showed mercy first!" Hyacinth squinted and smiled: "If a person's conspiracy is revealed, he will definitely be annoyed and angry, and he will be ruthless, how can he show mercy to his subordinates......?"
Yun Lingzi glanced at Hyacinth, sneered, and turned his head away. It seems that he still doesn't want to agree with his brother's words.
"Eighth Senior Brother, you go out first, there are some things I want to talk to Shen Shaoxia alone. Hyacinth naturally understood his intentions, but he still had to continue to upset him.
Yun Lingzi snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves, strode out angrily, and closed the door with a "bang".
Hyacinth didn't think it was angry at all, and smiled: "Shen Shaoxia, he is this temper, don't be surprised!"
"Where!" Shen Lingxiao said with a straight face: "Yun Lingzi's predecessor is a person of temperament. This is very similar to the head of Broken Hongzi!"
Hyacinth nodded, diverted the topic and asked, "Shen Shaoxia, you said just now that your martial arts are the strongest among the disciples of the young generation of your Qingcheng faction......
On weekdays, Shen Lingxiao would be humble, but he didn't want to deny this situation, and besides, this was indeed what he had just said. So he honestly bowed his head and said, "Yes." β
"Yes. Hyacinth nodded, "It seems that you have fulfilled the true inheritance of Brother Zhenguan...... Shen Shaoxia, Poor Dao still wants to take the liberty of asking: I don't know if your faction's "Imperial Sword Divine Illusion Skill" has you already practiced?"
"I'm ashamed, no. Shen Lingxiao didn't expect him to ask this question, and at the same time, he couldn't guess his intention to talk to himself alone, so he looked at him with puzzled eyes.
"Oh, I think so. Hyacinth muttered lightly: "I heard that even your master and your master have not been able to practice, have they?"
"That's true. β
Hyacinth was silent, his eyes were mixed with sadness and helplessness, he shook his head and muttered: "It seems that not only my Kongtong faction's stunt has been lost, but even your Qingcheng faction is ...... Alas, it's really not as good as the generation!"
"Who's to say it's not?...... Alas!" Shen Lingxiao echoed perfunctorily.
"Shen Shaoxia, do you know: why the relationship between the two factions has always been so close over the generations?"
Shen Lingxiao thought for a while and said, "I think it should be because we all belong to the Dao Sect." ββDaomen disciples, they have always been the same as each other, and they are like brothers......"
"This is just one of the secondary reasons. Hyacinth waved his hand and said slowly: "There is one more important reason, that is: seven hundred years ago, the two factions of you and me were originally real brother sects!"
β»β»β»
Shen Lingxiao was slightly surprised when he heard this: "The real brother sect? senior, how can you say this?"
Hyacinth stared into his eyes and asked, "Shen Shaoxia, didn't Master Ling tell you about this past?"
"The Past?...... The past seven hundred years ago?" Shen Lingxiao tried his best to recall, shook his head and said: "...... Never!"
"Well, it's no wonder!" Hyacinth smiled, "From the perspective of your Qingcheng faction, this matter is indeed not too glorious......
Shen Lingxiao heard that he had a lot of complaints about the Qingcheng faction, and he was a little unhappy in his heart, but he didn't know why, so he had to smile awkwardly and wait for him to continue.
"Shen Shaoxia, you should have read the historical classics of your sect?"
"Naturally. β
"Then among them, is there such a person as Yulongzi?"
Shen Lingxiao was shocked when he heard this. It must be known that among the Qingcheng faction, although there are not a few disciples who have heard of the name "Taiyi Zhenren", there are very few people who know the name of "Yulongzi".
- It turns out that this "Taiyi Zhenren" and "Yulongzi" are the same person. In his early years, this person was called "Yulongzi", and after middle age, he changed his name to "Taiyi Zhenren".
- Shen Lingxiao also learned this after reading the preface of "Qingcheng Secret Record".
"Yes, he is the first senior to cultivate the "Imperial Sword Divine Illusion Skill" of our sect...... Hey, how do you know?"
"Hehe, of course I know! This senior was born in the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty, right?"
"Yes. ...... I really didn't expect that my predecessors knew so much about the history of our faction!"
"That's a mistake!" Hyacinth explained: "Shen Shaoxia, I know a lot about the person of Yulongzi, not the history of your faction! The reason is very simple: because, in his early years, he was originally a member of my Kongtong faction!"
"What?!......" Shen Lingxiao thought he had misheard, and looked at him in a daze with misty eyes.
Hyacinth looked at him with a smile and said in a deep voice, "Shen Shaoxia, you didn't hear it wrong. The Dao name of 'Yulongzi' was given by his teacher Ling Yunzi in his early years when he was in my Kongtong faction, and as for the Dao name of 'Taiyi Zhenren', it was set up by himself when he was in charge of your faction......
Shen Lingxiao slowly came back to his senses and muttered, "It's really strange, why haven't you heard the master talk about this matter?"
Hyacinth smiled and said, "If it were me, I might not have told you." β
Shen Lingxiao knew what he meant, or because it was "not very glorious", so he said suspiciously: "If the predecessor said...... If true,...... I think it's because of what my predecessors said!"
Hyacinth said: "Shen Shaoxia, this matter is true, I will never lie to you!"
Shen Lingxiao saw that he was solemn, and he believed it in his heart, and was silent for a while, and said, "Senior, can you tell the junior the story of this Royal Dragon Son's predecessor?"
"Of course! That's what I'm bringing up this for. Hyacinth changed his sitting position to make it more comfortable. It seems that he wanted to make a long speech.
"During the Tang Tianbao period, I sent two amazing seniors, one is called Qingwuzi, and the other is this Imperial Dragon Son!"
"The two of them are senior brothers, Qingwuzi is the senior brother, and Yulongzi is the junior brother. Not to mention the two joining forces, just one of them is a rare opponent in the world...... Therefore, at that time, the prestige of my Kongtong faction was so great that even Shaolin was inferior!"
"Seniors, what they practiced was all 'Imperial Sword Divine Illusion Skills'?" Shen Lingxiao interjected and asked.
"Hehe, "Imperial Sword Divine Illusion Skill" is the name of your sect later. Hyacinth smiled, "The predecessors of the Royal Dragon used a long sword to practice the 'Hidden Dragon Fantasy Sword'; and the predecessors of the Qingwuzi used the sword in the palm of the ......" At this point, he took out two delicate small swords with glittering light from the left and right sleeves, "Oh, it is this kind of sword, the name is 'Bimuel', and the practice is the 'Six Void Sword Technique', and the people in the rivers and lakes call it 'Crying Blood and Double Flying Cold'......"
"Oh, it turns out that what the predecessors practiced is the stunt of the Qingwuzi seniors! No wonder, the power is so great!"
"Cut! Mighty, what can I be compared to his old man with my little attainment?...... Is that comparable? It's like the light of a firefly, it's better than Haoyue'er!"
Hyacinth shook his head repeatedly, immersed in his thoughts, his eyes were full of admiration, and continued: "According to the records of our sect's classics, once the predecessors of Qingwuzi cast the 'Weeping Blood Double Flying Cold', within a radius of a few zhang, the sword shadow was in the sky, flying sand and stones, and the color of the heavens and the earth changed for ......."
"That'...... The martial arts of Qingwuzi's predecessors, compared to the predecessors of Yulongzi, which is higher or lower?"
The two of them, one is the king of the long sword, the other is the saint of the short sword, and the people in the rivers and lakes call it the double saint of martial arts!"
"Senior, I'm sorry, I have to disturb you," Shen Lingxiao rubbed his nose, "Junior, I still have a question, I want to ask you...... Is the 'Hidden Dragon Illusory Sword' that the predecessors of the Imperial Dragon Son practiced when you were in Kongtong powerful, or is the 'Imperial Sword Divine Illusion Skill' created in my Qingcheng powerful?"
When Hyacinth heard this, he laughed and said, "Shen Shaoxia, that 'Hidden Dragon Illusion Sword' is the 'Imperial Sword Divine Illusion Skill'!
Shen Lingxiao blushed slightly and said in a low voice, "Oh, so that's the case. ...... Senior, 'Hidden Dragon Phantom Sword' and 'Weeping Blood Double Flying Cold', are they both the stunts of your Kongtong faction?"
Hyacinth glanced at him and said seriously: "Actually, it can't be regarded as a ...... To be exact, before they practiced these two stunts, not really. β
"Oh?...... And what about them...... Who did you learn it from?"
