014 Blow
"You were called out in the morning and only came back now, is it related to the Smelling Fragrance Sect? Could it be Cui Chenghai, he is a member of this cult?"
Gu Zheng remembered something, his eyes widened, and he said with some shock.
Chen Mu looked at him in some surprise, his brain was spinning very fast, why didn't he see him so smart before, and said, "Don't guess, I just overheard someone talk about it today, and I'm a little curious." Looking at you like this, is this sect dangerous?"
"It's more than a danger. ”
Gu Zheng said with a serious face, "In Dajin, this sect is a taboo and must not be mentioned. In order to exterminate this cult, I don't know how many people died. After that, the imperial court issued a ban on mentioning the three words of smelling incense. Even history textbooks do not mention this cult. ”
Chen Mu was very curious, "What kind of angry thing did this Smelling Fragrance Sect do, and was suppressed by the imperial court like this?"
Gu Zheng said, "I don't know, it was all more than a hundred years ago. However, there are some rumors that the Wenxiang Sect holds the secret of immortality, and the royal family killed the killer in order to seize the method of immortality. It is also said that the Wenxiang Sect wanted to rebel and was suppressed. There are also those who say that the Smelling Fragrance Sect wants to destroy the world. ”
Chen Mu felt that the first and third rumors were more imaginative and more likely. As for the rebellion, there is no need to issue a ban.
"This cult was exterminated more than 100 years ago, but I didn't expect it to be resurrected now. It still appears in Guanghai, and I'm afraid it will be eventful in the future. ”
Gu Zheng looked worried.
Chen Mu comforted, "Don't worry, the sky is falling, and you have a tall top." It's not our turn to worry about this kind of thing. ”
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and a classmate came in, said hello to Gu Zheng, sat down in his seat, took out a book and read it.
There were others there, Chen Mu and the two didn't discuss the matter of Wenxiang Sect anymore, and after chatting for a while, they left the classroom and went to the back mountain of the school to practice swords.
Chen Mu promised to instruct Gu Zheng on swordsmanship, and after receiving all the money, he naturally would not break his promise.
............
In the next few days, Chen Mu's life returned to peace, and he did not encounter Qin Ruosu again, nor did he encounter the killer sent by the Wenxiang Sect.
I went to school every day, practiced martial arts, instructed Gu Zheng in swordsmanship, and learned swords from Zhuo Jiao, and my life was quite fulfilling.
It was another evening after school, in the open space on the hill behind the school.
Two figures, a man and a woman, kept leaping and flying, and the swords in their hands collided from time to time, making a crisp metal clashing sound. Although it is a sword competition, it looks particularly pleasing to the eye, and it can be said that it is chic for men and graceful for women.
After a few moments, the two figures parted and landed on the ground. It was Chen Mu and Zhuo Yue.
"Teach Xi, what kind of swordsmanship was that move just now, it's so powerful. I almost missed. Chen Mu asked curiously.
Zhuo Yue's eyelids jumped slightly, her face was a little unbearable, her mouth moved, and she said, "Bibo swordsmanship, my master's secret lineage." ”
Chen Mu learned too fast, and in order to avoid the Flying Spirit Sword Technique being taught by him, she fell into the dilemma of being unteachable. So he offered to feed him tricks, so that he could grasp the essence of swordsmanship more quickly.
Who knows, Chen Mu's performance shocked her again.
His progress is so amazing, every other day, there is a noticeable improvement, one step at a time. By yesterday, she was having a hard time coping. And today, she can even be suppressed faintly.
Just now, she saw that she was about to lose, so she had no choice but to use a blue wave swordsmanship, so that she could turn the danger into victory and turn defeat into victory.
Since she met Chen Mu, she has been shocked many times, but the shock to her is not as good as this time.
The first time she brought Chen Mu here, it was only ten days' work. He has gone from a beginner to now, and he has surpassed her in the attainment of the Flying Spirit Sword Technique.
You must know that after she apprenticed five years ago, she practiced hard every day, and the master taught her carefully, for five years.
Although her energy was not entirely focused on the Flying Spirit Sword Technique. But she is a big realm higher than Chen Mu, and when she suppresses her strength, her attainments in the Flying Spirit Sword Technique are not as good as Chen Mu, who has only learned the Sword Technique for ten days.
The shock is indescribable.
For a while, there was a trace of bitterness in Zhuo Yue's heart, and doubts arose in his heart, was he really a martial arts wizard in the master's mouth? Could it be that the master was coaxing himself?
Chen Mu on the other side heard that it was the secret transmission of her master, so he had no idea, and asked instead, "I think I have almost mastered the Flying Spirit Sword Technique, when will the last twelve styles be taught to me?"
One hundred and eight styles of flying spirit swordsmanship, he has learned ninety-six styles, and only the last twelve styles have not been learned.
Zhuo Yue was a martial artist of the second realm after all, and quickly regained his mind and replied, "Tomorrow." ”
Tomorrow, the master will be out of the customs, and when the time comes, the master will be the master, and Chen Mu will be introduced, not to mention the last twelve styles of the Flying Spirit Sword Technique, even if it is the Bibo Sword Technique, it can also be passed on to him.
"That's it for today," she said. ”
Chen Mu saluted, took his sword, and turned to leave.
On the way, he looked at the gaps on the sword that were several grains of rice, and felt a little distressed, "They all say that they are poor and rich in martial arts, but they really don't lie at all." Learning martial arts is too expensive. ”
This was already the second sword he had changed, and the first one he bought the cheapest, five silver yuan. In less than two days, it was broken.
Then he gritted his teeth and spent twenty silver dollars to buy this stainless steel sword. As a result, it lasted for five days.
A sword better than a steel sword can easily cost hundreds of silver yuan.
If this continues, just by buying a sword, he will go bankrupt.
Originally, I thought that more than 500 silver dollars was a lot, enough to spend a year or two. Now it seems that he really thinks too much, and this little money is not spent at all.
Chen Mu arrived at the bottom of the mountain and saw that Gu Zheng was also practicing his sword there, and greeted him. He stopped, took his things, and went with him.
The carriage of the Gu family was waiting at the school gate, and the two walked towards the gate, and suddenly, Gu Zheng said with a straight face, "Brother Chen, my mother wants to invite you to have a meal at home, I don't know if it is convenient for you?"
Seeing his formal invitation, Chen Mu said, "It's convenient for me, you can set the time." ”
After all, it is the owner of the money, and it is best to have a good relationship. What's more, he took the initiative to invite.
"So how about tomorrow?"
"Okay. ”
While talking, the two had already arrived in front of the carriage, and Gu Zheng was about to get into the carriage, when he suddenly said softly, "It's the eldest lady of the Qin family—" and looked at Chen Mu.
Chen Mu turned his head and saw that it was indeed Qin Ruosu, who was getting down from a luxurious carriage, and there was also a young man in brocade clothes who came down with him.
The two rode in the same carriage, and the relationship was naturally not simple.
Just when Chen Mu looked over, Qin Ruosu seemed to feel something, and looked over here, and the two looked at each other.
Chen Mu retracted his gaze and said, "Let's go." So he got into the carriage.
Gu Zheng noticed that Qin Ruosu's face had changed, he didn't look at it much, followed into the carriage, and said with some hesitation, "Brother Chen......"
"What?" Chen Mu's expression was as usual, and he couldn't see a trace of abnormality.
"Nothing, let's go. ”
Gu Zheng commanded the coachman, and the carriage slowly drove out.
............
"Susu, what's wrong?"
On the other side, the son in brocade clothes saw Qin Ruosu's expression was different, and asked with concern.
"Nothing. Qin Ruosu lowered her head and said, "Thank you cousin for sending me off, I'll go back first." ”
"Wait. ”
The brocade boy stopped her, took out a white jade hairpin from his arms, and said, "When I saw this hairpin in the Rongxiang Pavilion in the capital, I thought it was particularly suitable for you, so I bought it for you." Here, I'll put it on for you. ”
Qin Ruosu didn't wait for him to step forward, he took a step back and said, "I understand my cousin's kindness." It's just that it's useless, I can't take this thing, goodbye. After speaking, without waiting for him to speak, he entered the school gate.
The brocade-clothed boy was left standing there, his face a little unsightly.
