Chapter 18: The Crisis at the Lake Bottom
As we all know, Qinling Li Mountain is covered with snow almost all year round, and there is no distinction between winter and summer, and of course the Lingyun Sword Sect is the same, and the Yuxin Lake on the top of Meifeng Mountain is also frozen all year round, and it is even more rare to see Yuxin Lake unsealed.
Tao Xian Weng is not here today, Yuxin Lake is unsealed, such an opportunity, the sword flutters to the bottom of the lake, and he is sorry for his name as the second son of Lingyun!
After some "coercion and temptation", Jian Piaoyun used a bamboo dragonfly and three unheard stories as bargaining chips in exchange for Uncle Xiaoling's approval.
"One, two, two, three, four......" Jian Piaoyun took off his clothes, only a pair of pants remained, and jumped on the shore to warm up, but he didn't know that Uncle Xiaoling, who was hiding in the distance, was covering his eyes with his hands, looking at Jian Piaoyun's "naked body" from between his fingers, and his face was flushed.
"This time, I must find a sword that suits me!" Jian Piaoyun muttered to himself, mobilizing his internal force, protecting his heart, holding his breath, "Hutong!" jumped into Yuxin Lake. The lake water is cold and biting, even if Jian Piaoyun is protected by Xuanyu's true qi, he feels that he can't bear the cold lake water.
This is the second time he has entered the water, and the bottom of the lake is not lifeless as others imagined, but full of life. His leap woke up many of the sleeping fish, causing them to swim in all directions, causing chaos in the lake.
At the bottom of the lake, in addition to the gray aquatic plants, there are many remnants of armor and broken swords that are buried by the sand at the bottom of the lake, and the dust is sealed there. These are the relics of the ancestors of the Sword Sect, and of course, there are many complete long swords stuck at the bottom of the lake, and the sword drifting clouds are aimed at these swords.
This time, Jian Piaoyun has the late-stage realm of qi recuperation, and the Heavenly Heart Imperial Divine Technique and Xuanyu True Qi are rare in the world, allowing him to sneak at the bottom of the lake for a longer time!
Just when the sword drifted in the clouds to find the sword to no avail, and was about to return to the water, I suddenly found that ahead, at the bottom of the originally flat lake, there was a huge pothole, and there was no grass around the hole, and the small fish swam here, as if they had encountered a barrier, and they did not dare to approach!
The pit is large and deep, about ten meters in diameter, and the depth is also about ten meters. Jian Piaoyun was slightly happy in his heart, thinking that maybe there was a peerless sword underneath, isn't this what the general story is? Sure enough, when Jian Piaoyun swam to the bottom of the lake, he saw a complete sword, with a scabbard, standing upright in the middle of the pit.
There was no life under the pit, not even a single aquatic weed seedling, lifeless, a little weird, a little depressing. And the sword was very strange, the hilt and scabbard were identical, like a dead log.
At a depth of more than 20 meters, the water pressure is somewhat alarming, and the further the sword drifts down, the more chaotic the internal breath flow becomes! He couldn't stop shouting in his heart: "I want to get him!"
Closer, closer!
Suddenly, Jian Piaoyun turned around and was alert, and the situation in front of him was so startled that he exhaled a few times, and a string of bubbles slowly floated to the surface of the water with a "grunt" sound!
Two giant freshwater sharks - stingrays!
It looks like a manta ray in the sea, with a flat disc, huge shark fins like bats, a slender tail like a whip, and a serrated spine, and it is highly poisonous, and it has almost no natural predators in the water!
The two giant stingrays came with their mouths open, bringing up turbulent currents! Thanks to the good water properties of the sword floating clouds, coupled with the magical internal breath direction of the Heavenly Heart Imperial Divine Technique, they could avoid this pinching attack, turned around, and swam towards the water.
However, no matter how fast Jian Piaoyun's body is, where can he quickly pass the stingray that grows in the water? One of the stingrays opened its huge mouth the size of a human head, fanned the shark fin, and bit at Jian Piaoyun's legs! In a desperate situation, Jian Piaoyun's luck converged in the palm of his hand, and he shot a palm wind towards the strange fish under him, and the palm of his hand brought the water flow to the strange fish, and the strange fish changed direction, and Jian Piaoyun temporarily escaped a catastrophe!
But when he got out of this palm, the breath in his body became even more chaotic, his brain lacked oxygen, his head was groggy, his body was numb, and he began to disobey him. I didn't encounter these two strange fish last time, and I don't know where they came from. I didn't die at the bottom of the cliff, should I be buried in the belly of the fish?" Jian Piaoyun thought so, but he couldn't do anything about it.
Just as the two stingrays opened their mouths to bite like swords and clouds, a thin line with a fish hook suddenly shot from the surface of the water, and the thin line was wrapped in a light blue true qi, entangled Jian Piaoyun's wrist!
The "poof" sword fluttering cloud fell on the boat, gasping for breath, and did not come back to his senses for a long time.
"Stinky boy, I'm really impatient, I know your kid's character, I won't let you go down, you go down, if I don't come back by chance, you will be buried in the belly of the fish!
Jian Piaoyun used his internal force to evaporate the lake water on his body, and after breathing for a while, he said: "Thank you Immortal Weng for saving me! Where did the two strange fish of such a big come from in this biting cold lake?"
Tao Xian Weng turned his head and did not change his color, and said: "The world is so big, there are no surprises, this rule-following Lingyun Sword Sect, isn't there also your eccentric alien?"
"Hehe, the immortal weng has won the prize!" Jian Piaoyun smiled and asked again: "Can the immortal Weng see that sword just now?"
"Well, the old man knows. The sword...... That sword, the Lingyun Sword Sect...... No, even on the land of Shenzhou, no one can control it, the old man advises you, give up!" Tao Xianweng said.
"Immortal, you can't either?"
Tao Xianweng glanced back at Jian Piaoyun, who was only wearing a pair of pants, and scolded: "Stinky boy, why don't you go and put on your clothes, don't pollute Xiao Ling'er's eyes!" Sure enough, Xiao Ling'er, who was hiding in the attic in the lake, was still secretly aiming at Jian Piaoyun, and when he heard Shizun talk about himself, his little head squeaked and shrank back.
“...... "Sword Piaoyun muttered, and flew back to the shore honestly, putting on his clothes.
Back on the boat, Tao Xianweng sat cross-legged on the bow of the boat, holding a fishing rod, quietly fishing. I only heard him say: "Landing steadily and silently, you can do the boat in the water without moving at all, Yun boy, I haven't seen you for a few months, your perfect light martial arts has reached a higher level!"
Jian Piaoyun rarely heard Tao Xian Weng's praise, and when he heard him say this at this moment, his heart was still a little fluttering, and he said secretly: Thanks to this Heavenly Heart Divine Technique, if I perform the light skill "Cloud Dragon Three Folds", wouldn't I scare your old man to death?
"Compared with Tao Xian Weng, the kid is ashamed of himself!" Jian Piaoyun said modestly on the surface, and said: "Fang Cai, the sword at the bottom of the lake that Xian Weng said, no one in the world can control it, why is this?"
Tao Xianweng's fishing rod in his hand was like an iron rod, motionless, he only said one word: "Demon!"
Jian Piaoyun was puzzled when he heard this, "Demon, what do you mean? This is a magic sword?"
"Magic Sword?" Tao Xian Weng felt fresh when he heard this word, and said, "You kid will always come up with some new words...... You say it's a magic sword, but it's not necessarily wrong!"
Tao Xianweng moved in his hand and pulled a fish, and the fish hung on the hook, fluttering vigorously in the air, splashing everywhere. Jian Piaoyun performed light skills, took down the slippery little fish in the air, and then put it in the bamboo basket on the boat. Tao Xianweng nodded and replied: "People have inner demons, but they don't know that swords also have 'heart' demons! As the saying goes, people raise jade for three years, jade raises people for a lifetime, and a piece of jade is like this, let alone a sword!"
Jian Piaoyun knew that the immortal was selling Guan Zi again, and cooperated: "The kid doesn't understand, I want to hear about it!"
"This sword is from the hands of Xue Meng, the founder of Sword Casting Valley, and it was once a peerless divine weapon!"
"Peerless Divine Soldier!" Jian Piaoyun exclaimed after hearing this: "Our master sword is already a masterpiece of ingenuity, but I didn't expect this sword to be a peerless divine weapon?"
"Stinky boy, be quiet, scare away the fish, go down and catch it!" Tao Xianweng scolded softly.
"Eh, Immortal Weng, that sword is really a peerless divine weapon, are you kidding?" Jian Piaoyun was shocked in his heart, and he wanted to get it more and more!
......
Speaking of Lingyun Sword, after several tosses, it still returned to Yin Cai'er's hands.
In Chicheng, Qinling, Yin Caier found the mark of the same door and found his senior brother. She looked at the snow-white Lingyun Sword with a cold air and asked the senior brother on the side, "Senior Brother Tiezhu, why is Lingyun Sword still here?"
Tie Zhu touched his head and said innocently: "I will follow your orders, Senior Sister, the Shanglingyun Sword Sect will return this sword to the head of Jian Huaping, but which one will kill a Zheng Tianming halfway, Senior Sister, you also know, I have this ability, I can't walk Zheng Tianming's ten moves, Senior Brother, I will ride a horse and gallop, and before I know it, I fled here......
"You!cough cough......" Yin Cai'er couldn't get angry, coughed a few times, and spit out a mouthful of bloody phlegm.
"Senior sister, you're injured!"
"I'm seriously injured and need to recuperate here for a few days, senior brother, you take the Lingyun Sword and this prescription, go back to Shengzhou in the Central Plains first, and grab some medicinal materials for my mother." Although Yin Cai'er was covered with a black veil, she could also see that her face was pale without a trace of blood, and she said: "It seems that with the initial realm of qi and breathing, it is really difficult to resist the powerful blow of the mid-stage strength of the internal breath and acupoints!
When Senior Brother Tiezhu heard this, he was quite moved in his heart, took the prescription and the Lingyun Sword, left some copper plates and broken silver, gave some instructions, and went out to Shengzhou.
"Alas......" In the room, only Yin Cai'er's sigh remained. She looked at the back of Senior Brother Tiezhu's departure, a little distracted, and remembered the young man in green clothes with a jade fan in Quzhou City, Beichuan a few days ago, and couldn't help but be stupid. Thinking about the young man in a daze, a little ripple appeared in her heart, and suddenly, the faces of the two apprentices of the medicine fairy, Wu Ting and Huang Chenqi, with a look of horror, appeared in her mind, and with tears in the corners of her eyes, she couldn't help but gush out and drip to the ground.
"In this life and this life, I can only look at you from afar," Yin Cai'er muttered to herself, "Which girl doesn't have a spring?" It's a pity that I don't deserve it...... Silly Senior Brother Tiezhu, I really won't dislike me, maybe this life, entrusting it to you, is also a good choice!" she smiled, with a hint of sadness in her expression, her little hands wiped away her tears, ready to breathe and recuperate, and suddenly an irrelevant man flashed in her mind again - the young man with a cynical smile and a little sand between his eyebrows, the guy with a cheap mouth and a merciless curse, the sissy with better eyes than ordinary women, the stinking boy who was very nosy! Thinking of this, Yin Cai'er shook her head violently, threw his figure out of her mind, and muttered, "Nasty...... Nasty, sissy!"
