Time has always passed inadvertently, and in the blink of an eye, the sixteenth year of Zhengde is coming to an end. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

This year, Ming Wuzong died.

This year, a fourteen-year-old boy became the luckiest person in the world, sitting at home and receiving the largest pie in history, and the position of emperor of the Ming Empire took the initiative to run into his hands. After this young man ascended the throne, the year name Jiajing, because he was exposed to it since he was a child, he believed in Taoist metaphysics, and he also became the "Xiuzhen Emperor" among the various strange emperors of the Ming Empire.

In this year, the Huashan faction regained the position of the leader of the Wuyue Alliance.

This year, Cao Xu devoted himself to practicing on Ryukyu Island, and his skills became more and more profound. Liu Jing gave birth to Lin'er and continued the incense for the Lao Lin family.

In February of the first year of Jiajing, spring returns to the earth, and everything recovers. The grass grows and the warbler flies, and the scenery is infinite.

Cao Xu once again returned from overseas and returned to Fuzhou.

The Huashan Sword Hall on Ximen Street, countless people come in and out, and it is very lively.

Today is the day of the monthly examination of Huashan Sword Hall once a month, and if you pass the assessment, you can change from a registered disciple to an ordinary disciple, you can learn Huashan swordsmanship, raise your horse and whip, fight the sword rivers and lakes, and walk on the pinnacle of life.

Yue Lingshan wore a well-tailored blue robe, stood on the high platform in the school yard, looked at the hundreds of registered disciples below, and said with a solemn expression: "The monthly exam is held today, presumably many of you have already prepared, I hope you can all pass the assessment smoothly, okay, the monthly exam begins." ”

Yue Lingshan's words fell, and immediately several ordinary disciples in gray Taoist robes came over with a one-person tall tripod, and with a "bang", it was placed in front of the high platform.

A registered disciple standing at the front immediately began to rub his hands, and then walked to stand in front of the Great Ding, and put on a fist frame of Huashan Changquan Ten Duan Jin.

Clang!

Swinging his fist and hitting the top of the body, a sound was immediately heard.

As the man stopped, there were three more long trembling sounds, but the fourth was very obscure.

"Ding Ming four rings, qualified. Yue Lingshan's voice came from the stage.

This disciple bowed his hand to Yue Lingshan, and then retreated. The second man came up to test.

Cao Xu looked at Yue Lingshan, who was heroic on the stage, and smiled. From her body, there is no trace of the little girl who was looking for death and life a year ago.

He watched quietly like this, waiting until all the registered disciples were tested.

"Little junior sister. Cao Xu shouted.

Yue Lingshan followed the prestige, a smile appeared on her face, and she shouted happily, "Senior Brother Lin." ”

"I haven't seen each other for a year, and the former little sister has become a big girl. Cao Xu said.

"Senior Brother Lin, your eyes are better. Yue Lingshan asked, she saw that Cao Xu's eyes were not covered with black cloth as before.

"Well, it's already good. Cao Xu didn't want to bother to explain anything, so he immediately followed Yue Lingshan's words.

"Senior Brother Lin, what do you say about how we should promote new changes in Huashan, for more than a year, I have been observing the way the Sword Sect cultivates disciples, using the outer gate to obtain quantity and the inner door to improve quality, which is a very good way. However, some senior brothers and sisters, led by the second senior brother, did not agree with this change. Yue Lingshan said with some distress.

Second Senior Brother Lao Denuo, Cao Xu smiled and asked, "Has anything happened to the Songshan Sect these days?"

"Nope. Yue Lingshan replied.

The two talked as they walked, and after a while, they came to the main hall, where Feng Buping was handling affairs.

After seeing Cao Xu, it was naturally a pleasant greeting.

After the three of them sat down, Yue Lingshan said: "Uncle Feng, among the one hundred and thirty-six people who participated in the assessment this time, thirty-seven of them finally passed the assessment, the number of ordinary disciples in the Fuzhou Sword Pavilion has increased rapidly, and the situation in the two Sword Pavilions in Quanzhou and Hangzhou must be similar, we must expand." ”

"What do you think of Senior Nephew Lin?" Feng Buping asked.

"Uncle Feng, don't embarrass me, I just returned from Ryukyu Island, and I don't know anything about the current situation of the Sword Sect, how can I talk nonsense. Cao Xu waved his hand and said.

"It's not that I don't want to expand, but I don't have a true disciple in charge, and blindly expanding will damage the foundation of my Huashan faction. Feng Buping said.

"Although there are no true disciples yet, we have a large number of elite disciples and ordinary disciples, and we can start with one prefecture or one county first, and we don't necessarily have to establish a sword pavilion first, and then cover other prefectures and counties. Yue Lingshan said.

"That's one way. Feng Buping said, "But now is not a troubled time, if you don't dredge up the relationship above, you won't be able to take the next step at all." It's hard!"

Cao Xu listened to Yue Lingshan's uneven conversation, and then flipped through the statistics of the current situation of the Huashan Sword Sect, and after thinking about it, he said, "What Senior Uncle Feng said is good, but the proposal of the little junior sister is also very reasonable. Is there a place where you don't need to dredge up the relationship above, and you can expand. ”

"Where?" Feng Buping's eyes lit up and he hurriedly asked.

"Here. Cao Xu walked to the side of a map and pointed to the Gannan region and said.

The southern Gan region is high and densely forested, the people are fierce, and there are many bandits, from Fujian to the west, it directly enters this area, and it is indeed the most suitable place for the expansion of Huashan Sword Sect at this stage.

After solving the problem of the development of the Huashan Sword Sect, Feng Buping asked, "Senior Nephew Lin is back this time, but what is there to do?"

Cao Xu nodded and said: "I want to emulate the Chongyang Patriarch in the past, Huashan on the sword, suppress the world's masters, and win the first place in the world for my Huashan, what does Uncle Feng think?"

"This matter still needs to be discussed with Uncle Feng and his old man. Feng Buping said.

"Okay, I was thinking about going to meet Uncle Fengtai. Cao Xu said.

"Senior Brother Lin, can I take it with me? I also want to meet Uncle Fengtai. I've been here for nearly a year, and I haven't been able to see him yet. Yue Lingshan hurriedly said.

"It's okay, little junior sister will go with us. Cao Xu said.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Lin. Yue Lingshan said happily.

The three of them went all the way out of Fuzhou City and came to the location of the Huashan Sword Sect Mountain Gate outside the city.

After more than a year of construction, the mountain gate is now even more magnificent, and you can see a rolling complex of buildings in the distance.

After passing through the three halls of Taiqing, Shangqing, and Yuqing in a row, and came to a very ordinary hall in the back mountain, Yue Lingshan finally saw the wind that had been admired.

At this time, Feng Qingyang was practicing his sword.

On one side, the long sword in his hand is sometimes fast and sometimes slow, sometimes urgent and sometimes slow, between the fast and slow changes, it contains profound kendo mysteries, so that Feng Buping can't help but indulge in it.

Cao Xu stood quietly on the side and watched Feng Qingyang practice his sword, sometimes nodding and sometimes shaking his head.
