In the restaurant, Zhao Xuan led Li Zhichang to the window seat on the second floor, facing the venue for the martial arts competition below. The two sat at the wine table and took in the changes on the field. I saw that the two teenagers on the field were still fighting, and it was difficult to tell the winner for a while. Li Zhichang was ordered to sit opposite Zhao Xuan, and asked cautiously: "Uncle Shi, who is the young man in brocade? But the disciple you accepted?" but he originally suspected that the young man in brocade was Zhao Xuan's beloved apprentice, so he didn't let him come forward to teach the other party a lesson.

Zhao Xuan smiled slightly, and didn't break it, but said: "That young man's name is Wan Yankang, also known as Yang Kang." ”

"What?" Li Zhichang was stunned for a while, and after a long while, he hesitated: "Uncle Shi said...... He's a disciple of Master?"

Zhao Xuan nodded and said, "That's right, he is indeed a disciple who was accepted more than ten years ago. Speaking of which, it was earlier than you and Zhiping got started, and he was still your senior brother. ”

Li Zhichang's eyes were full of doubts, and he asked: "Master has an apprentice named Yang Kang, I know, and he said that he was loyal and good, why does this young man still have the surname of Jin? The master has always been jealous and hateful, and he especially hates the Jin people, how could he accept such a disciple? Not to mention that although Yang Kang's martial arts attainments in his own school are not shallow, there are other strange techniques in his martial arts, and there must be another teacher, and this ...... really makes him guess.

Zhao Xuan said with a smile: "This matter is a long story...... "The eighteen-year covenant was roughly explained to Li Zhichang before continuing: "The young man in brocade is the son of Yang Tiexin, and the other one is Guo Jing, the son of Guo Xiaotian. Although the two are both loyal and good, one is loyal and honest, and the other is greedy for wealth. Your master's eighteen-year covenant has actually been defeated without comparison. ”

When Li Zhichang heard this, he didn't know who Guo Jing and Yang Kang were loyal and honest, and who was greedy for wealth and nobility, his eyebrows furrowed: "Uncle Shi, I'm going to clean up the portal for the Quanzhen Sect!"

"Slow down!" Zhao Xuan stopped him and said, "Yang Kang can't lose now, otherwise this big drama won't be able to sing." But I can tell you an interesting news, that Yang Tiexin is actually not dead, but under the pseudonym Mu Yi, he took his daughter to hold a martial arts competition to recruit relatives. ”

Li Zhichang's eyes widened, and he immediately looked out the window. I saw that Yang Kang and Guo Jing were still fighting, and "Mu Yi" on the side was supported by his daughter, his old face was bloodless, and his right hand was dripping with blood. His pupils shrank suddenly: Yang Kang injured his biological father and molested his sister?

Just as he was about to be frightened, suddenly a loud shout sounded below: "The princess is here!" I saw a luxurious embroidered sedan chair carried to the side of the martial arts arena, the embroidered sedan chair stopped, and a woman's voice sounded inside: "Kang'er, why are you fighting with people? In the heavy snow, you don't wear long clothes, and you don't catch a cold when you turn around!" The voice was very delicate.

I heard Zhao Xuan chuckle in his ear: "See, this is called a fate to meet thousands of miles away, and the husband and wife both go to Huangquan." ”

Li Zhichang didn't react, stared, and saw that Mu Yi's face suddenly became sluggish, and a pair of eyes stared at the inside of the sedan chair, but he couldn't wear the golden warm curtains. His heart jumped suddenly, and he immediately knew that what Uncle Shi said was true. At this time, I noticed that Zhao Xuan just said that "the husband and wife both went to Huangquan", not "the husband and wife both returned home", and turned back in shock and said: "Uncle Shi, you said they ......"

Zhao Xuan shook his head and said, "There's no need to worry first, they will be fine now." ”

Li Zhichang nodded, still couldn't help but look out with apprehension, but saw that the scene on the field changed immediately at this time: Yang Kang seemed to be intent on showing his means in front of his mother because his mother was coming, and his moves became more and more ruthless and fast. That Guo Jing really couldn't resist it, and with a snap, he gave Yang Kang a big mouth, only to see him turn over and go up, followed by two heels in a row. When I got up again, my face was swollen.

That Guo Jing was really an elm pimple, and he didn't know that he was temporarily closed, so he continued to rush up with his head stunned. Although Yang Kang was slightly better than Guo Jing, the martial arts of the two were similar, and at this time, Guo Jing was desperate and suddenly became overstretched. The princess in the horrified palanquin suddenly changed her face and shouted, "Stop!

At this moment, the ragged black coal boy who happened to be in ragged before slipped back with Hou Tonghai again. Nahou Tong's overseas three-headed Jiao is the master of the Yellow River Gang and the junior brother of the "Ghost Gate Dragon King" Sha Tongtian. Sha Tongtian was familiar with Peng Lianhu, the leader of the Yellow River Gang, and Peng Lianhu was also present at this time.

As soon as Peng Lianhu heard the princess's shout, he jumped and attacked Guo Jing. Guo Jing hadn't seen the other party's figure clearly, so he dodged sideways. It's a pity that Rao is fast and still hit his arm by Peng Lianhu's palm. Guo Jing was unsteady on his feet and fell down when he boarded. I saw that Peng Lianhu smiled at Yang Kang and said, "Little prince, I took care of this kid for you, so that he won't be entangled in the future!" After speaking, he retracted his right hand, took a deep breath, stretched out, and slammed it down on the top of Guo Jing's head.

Seeing that Guo Jing was about to die in the palm of his hand, Li Zhichang wanted to rescue, but it was too late to go down at this time. Suddenly he shouted, "Slow down!" A gray figure burst out of the crowd.

I saw that the man was a middle-aged Taoist, wearing a gray Taoist robe, holding a whisk in his hand, and with a wave in the air, Peng Lianhu's wrist was already wrapped in silk. Li Zhichang's face was stunned, and he shouted, "It's Uncle Yuyang!"

Uncle Yuyang refers to the Iron Foot Immortal King Chu Yi, the road name Yuyangzi, is Zhao Zhijing's master, one of the seven sons of Quanzhen.

When Zhao Xuan saw this, he saw that Yiqiē was no different from the original work, nodded secretly, and said to Li Zhichang: "Okay, since your Uncle Wang has come, there will never be any more accidents in a short time, so let's talk about you first." ”

"Yes!" Li Zhichang retracted his gaze, turned his head, and said respectfully.

Zhao Xuan looked at him and said with a smile: "When did you find the 'sword scabbard'? Where did you find it?" After speaking, he took a sip of the wine that Xiao Er had just served, and his expression was extremely leisurely.

Li Zhichang lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Two months ago, in the Jin Kingdom. ”

"Oh?" Zhao Xuan glanced at him in surprise and said, "It seems that your 'scabbard' is not simple, let's talk about it, what happened?"

Li Zhichang pursed his lips and said, "Since the disciple left the Quanzhen Sect, he has begun to think about what the 'sword scabbard' mentioned by Uncle Shi Zu is. Until a few months ago, when the two-year period was approaching, the disciple still found nothing, so he wanted to come to his uncle and ancestor, and maybe he could meet some chance on the road. Along the way, he saw that the Jin people were brutal and slaughtered the people, and the disciple couldn't help but take action, and gradually realized the meaning of the 'sword scabbard' that the master and uncle said......"

It turns out that the so-called "scabbard" does not refer to the actual thing, but refers to its own measurement of the world: for example, what should be used to use the sword, what should not be the sword, who should not be the sword, and who should not be the sword. The so-called "scabbard" is nothing more than a guarantee to prevent swordsmen from killing indiscriminately.

This does not affect the power of a swordsman's sword, on the contrary, the sword needs to hide the edge and then slash the sky. Only a sword that can hide its own edge can always maintain its edge. If the sword has been sharp, sooner or later it will be sharpened by the outside world and turned into a piece of scrap metal.

As the saying goes, "the heart of the qin will follow the crane, and the sword will be sharpened when the box is broken", "the three-foot sword in the box on the back is for the sky and shows injustice", only the sword in the box can give birth to the killing intent and keep the edge still.

Li Zhichang didn't understand this truth at first, and after going down Zhongnan Mountain, he has been wandering outside, only thinking about how to "hide Feng" in his heart, and then he is looking for famous people to compete, but he has reduced his attention to the outside world. It wasn't until the two-year appointment was approaching, knowing that he couldn't figure it out anymore, so it was better not to think about it, so he transferred his thoughts and attention to the "sword scabbard" to the outside world.

“...... Seeing the cruelty of the Jin people, the disciple regarded my Han family as a pig and dog, drew his sword all the way, and killed countless people, and began to understand why and why he made a sword. Until two months ago, I saw a group of golden soldiers slaughtering villages, killing villagers, women, and even 10-year-old children. The disciple knows that in this life, my sword only kills traitors, not loyalty. The disciple's scabbard is for the country and the people, and for the world to be peaceful!" Li Zhichang said loudly, his face was solemn, but there was a faint flash of pain in his eyes.

Zhao Xuan knew that he still had something to hide from him, but he didn't ask again. Everyone should have their own, and he will naturally say it when he wants to say it. So he just nodded. said: "Your scabbard is very good, in fact, everyone uses a sword to kill." It's just that the scabbard is different, and the people killed are also different. Since you have taken 'chivalry' as your scabbard, you have also understood the truth of 'the great man of chivalry, for the country and the people'. As long as we further understand the essence of 'for the country and the people', instead of being constrained by superficial interpretations, our future achievements will inevitably be limitless. ”

"Thank you Uncle Ancestor for your advice!" Li Zhichang stood up and saluted, and did not ask what the real "essence" was, because he knew that this kind of thing could only be understood by himself, and it was useless for others to say more.

Zhao Xuan nodded with satisfaction, glanced at the other party appreciatively, and did not speak. Pick up the chopsticks, put down the wine glass, and quietly pick up the dishes on the table and start eating.

Li Zhichang on the other side hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help but ask, "Senior Uncle Ancestor, what is your sword scabbard?"

"What is this for?" Zhao Xuan didn't answer immediately, stopping to look at the other party.

Li Zhichang was slightly embarrassed and said: "The disciple is just curious......"

Zhao Xuan smiled: "I have abandoned the sword for many years, where do I need any sword scabbard." ”

"But......" Li Zhichang also wanted to say that his swordsmanship was so high before his uncle, how could he not have a scabbard. Besides, this scabbard is just a metaphor, whether there is a sword or not, there will always be what it should have. It's a pity that he was interrupted by Zhao Xuan: "Okay, let's eat, we still have something to do in a while." ”

"Yes!" Li Zhichang Zhao Xuan didn't want to say more, and he didn't want to ask again, but he still couldn't help but be curious: "What are we going to do?"

"Buy the medicine and go to the Gaosheng Inn. Zhao Xuan looked outside and said lightly
