Yang Ning was very close to Chi Danmei at this time. The strange fragrance of Chi Danmei penetrated into her nose, making her heart palpitate. This charming woman had tender skin and looked at Yang Ning with a half-smile. Yang Ning squinted and looked at Yang Ning. Still couldn't help but glance down and saw the bottomless snow-white ravine. She thought to herself that this figure is really amazing. She smiled half-heartedly and said, "You want to compete with them? That's easy. I'll take you there someday." Come and see, you can also compare with them.”
"Oh?" Chi Danmei smiled seductively and said in a soft voice, "We have agreed that when I am free one day, I will come find you."
Only then did Yang Ning feel that she had made a mistake. She thought that although this woman was enchanting and sexy, her martial arts skills were extremely high, and she was also a native of Dong Qi. Nothing good would happen if she got close to him, so it was better not to provoke her and not say much.
Chi Danmei chuckled, said nothing more, left with an enchanting figure, like a ball of flame, and the four men in linen clothes also quickly followed.
Seeing the Baiyun Island disciples leaving, the monks in the temple were relieved. They thought that if Yang Ning had not won, the Jingxin Pavilion of Daguangming Temple would have become a place for others to come and go at will. They were all afraid. No matter what, Yang Ning did He has made extraordinary achievements for Daguangming Temple, and the eyes of the monks looking at Yang Ning are very different.
It's just that some people are still wondering how Yang Ning defeated Bai Yuhe with that sword, and few people have figured it out yet.
Su Luo, the minister of etiquette who had been silently standing by, finally came out and said: "Master Jingkong, it is really dangerous today. Fortunately, your temple took action, and the people of Dong Qi were defeated."
Jing Neng frowned and said, "Master Su, today's situation is really dangerous. Baiyun Island has ulterior motives. You really shouldn't have brought them here."
He was not polite in his words. Although Su Luo was the Minister of Rites and an important minister in the imperial court, there was no awe in Jing Neng's tone.
Su Luo, on the other hand, said with a smile: "Master, I don't know. Now that the loyal and loyal Marquis is temporarily in charge of state affairs, our great Chu intends to form an alliance with the Dong Qi people. They have also sent people here this time, which can be regarded as a very good idea." A good start. The master of Baiyun Island is the master of the Eastern Qi State, and his disciples came with the Dong Qi envoy. We must not be rude. They repeatedly asked the court to send someone to take them to Daguangming Temple. After careful consideration, the old marquis sent his subordinates When I brought them here, I felt that the Great Guangming Temple would definitely make them return without success."
Jing Neng was still going to speak, but Jing Kong had already said: "Every disciple, please go back to your original place. Over there at Jing Xin Pavilion, don't be negligent. Let's all go down first."
All the monks clasped their hands together, chanted the Buddha's name, and walked out of the hall in an orderly manner. Yang Ning held the sword in his hand and was about to hand it back before leaving. Jingkong already said: "Qining, you stay first!"
Yang Ning was startled, then nodded.
The monks, including the young monk Zhenming, lined up to leave, but within a moment, only a few people were left in the hall.
"Master Su, if the Chu Kingdom is in trouble, Daguangming Temple will definitely come out to help." Jingneng waited for the monks to leave before saying: "But this time I agreed to the request of the disciples from Baiyun Island and took them up the mountain easily. It is really inappropriate. Poor monk I just hope this doesn’t happen again in the future.”
When Yang Ning heard this, he thought that the Daguangming Temple was really powerful. Logically speaking, the shore of Sui Tu was not the king's land. Daguangming Temple was just a temple in Nan Chu. Now that the imperial court brought people here, Jing Neng actually said that this was not the case, and he also He was just the head of the execution hall, not even the host.
Su Luo was not displeased at all, he just smiled and said: "Except for the disciples of Baiyun Island, no one dares to make such a request." He took a step forward and said: "Two masters, I have come here to do something else. Your temple needs to make preparations early.”
"What's the matter?"
"The death of the Holy Emperor makes the whole country grieve, but the country cannot be without a king for a day. After the national mourning, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will ascend the throne. At that time, he will have to climb a mountain to worship the heaven and hold a ceremony to worship the heaven." Su Luo said seriously: "There are many things that must be done here. Please cooperate with our Ministry of Etiquette on this matter when the time comes. The Ministry of Etiquette will also send officials to make preparations in your temple soon."
Jingkong and Jingneng looked at each other, clasped their hands together and said, "Amitabha." Their faces showed relief.
Yang Ning listened clearly, her body trembled slightly, thinking that she had heard before that the prince of Chu was on an envoy to Dong Qi and had not yet returned to Jianye. It seemed that this was not the case. It turned out that the prince had returned to the capital and was even preparing to ascend the throne.
He knew that there was an undercurrent in the court of Chu State. King Huainan was eyeing the throne, and many officials in the court supported King Huainan. At this time, the situation in the court was actually extremely dangerous.
Throughout the ages, there have been countless bloody massacres caused by the struggle for the throne, including brothers killing each other, and even fathers and sons killing each other.
Yang Ning has always been worried that if King Huainan really takes the opportunity to gather forces to seek the throne, no matter who wins in the end, Nanchu will definitely not be able to escape a bloody storm.
At this time, I heard that the prince was preparing to ascend the throne. It seemed that he was also worried about the long nights and dreams. If the throne was vacant for a day, it would be more dangerous.
The Jinyihou Mansion is closely related to the prince's line, so if the prince can successfully ascend the throne, it will definitely be a good thing for the Jinyihou Mansion.
"Master Su, go back and tell the loyal old marquis that Daguangming Temple will start preparing for the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven from now on." Jingkong said solemnly: "Everyone in this temple will respectfully welcome the new king to the throne!"
Su Luo smiled and cupped his hands, saying: "I dare not disturb the master's purity. I will come to disturb you in two days." He said goodbye and left.
After Su Luo left, Jingkong said to Yang Ning: "Qining, come forward!"
Before Zhenming left, he had handed the scabbard to Yang Ning. Yang Ning sheathed the sword, stepped forward with the Pilu Sword, offered it with both hands, and said: "Master Jingkong, thank you for borrowing the sword!"
Jingkong did not take back the Pilu Sword immediately. He stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Qining, the old monk should thank you. If you hadn't taken action to defeat Bai Yuhe, the consequences would have been disastrous." He asked with a smile: "Are you still complaining about the old monk in your heart? The monk asked you to go out to fight with swords?"
Yang Ning thought to herself that you also understood, but still smiled and said: "I don't dare."
"Qining, how did you execute that sword attack just now?" Jing Neng asked in confusion: "White Yuhe's swordsmanship is superb, how could you defeat him with one move?"
It turns out that you, the old monk, didn’t understand it either.
Yang Ning sneered in her heart, but at this time she had recalled the situation just now, and suddenly understood something, and opened her mouth slightly, but no words came out.
However, he remembered that in that moment of life and death, when he was lying on the ground, the sword he casually used was not without reason.
At this time, he had realized that the sword move he made had unknowingly imitated the moves on the sword diagram.
In the ghost courtyard of Jiangling's old house, he accidentally obtained a bunch of sword pictures. At one time, those moves were only used to perform sword dances.
After all, those incredible and bizarre moves are completely different from normal swordsmanship.
One of the moves involves lying on the ground. There are many moves on the sword map. Yang Ning actually hasn't fully remembered it yet. As for the move where he is lying on the ground and drawing the sword, he has tried it several times himself, and he can remember it. Most of all, when I went into sword competition today, I actually never thought about using the moves on the sword diagram to compete. After all, Bai Yuhe is a master of swordsmanship. It would be child's play to use a few moves on the sword diagram to compete with such a swordsman.
It was just that after he fell to the ground, in desperation, he subconsciously used that move. He didn't even remember whether he used it correctly at the time, but the move he made under conditioned reflex was really the sword diagram move in his subconscious. When he took action, he certainly could not have imagined that the sword he used out of reflex would seriously injure Bai Yuhe.
When I came back to my senses, I was not surprised, but rather horrified. I thought to myself, could it be that those sword diagrams were really so powerful that even masters like Bai Yuhe couldn't defeat one of them
Seeing Yang Ning's silence, Jing Neng naturally didn't know what he was thinking. Seeing his brows furrowed, Jing Neng thought he didn't want to answer and didn't want to ask more questions.
Jingkong said: "Qining, although you have not been tonsured, you are now considered a disciple of my Daguangming Temple. I wonder if you are willing to enter Kongming Pavilion?"
Jingneng glanced at Jingkong and stopped talking.
Yang Ning immediately had a headache and said: "Master, I... Hey, I really have no relationship with Buddha, and I have never thought about becoming a monk. You won't really force me to become a monk, right?" I secretly thought that you let me enter Kongming Pavilion for the purpose It’s better to force a good person to become a monk. No matter what you say about the empty and empty pavilions, I finally traveled through time once, but I don’t want to become a monk and live my life.
"Actually, staying in Daguangming Temple will be of great benefit to you." Jingkong said: "Away from the worldly disputes, you can cultivate yourself here, and you can also practice martial arts in Kongming Pavilion to keep fit...!"
Yang Ning interrupted: "No more, no more, Master, look it's dark outside, for the sake of me helping you win this game, can you let me go back first and let me have a good rest?" Didn't you say that someone will become a monk in my place? When will he come? Will I be able to go down the mountain only after he comes? Why don't you send someone to the Hou Mansion to urge me? I have a lot to do and cannot delay here. "
Jingneng frowned and finally said: "You go back first!"
Yang Ning thought to herself that today I am at Wugutang, don’t you want to take me to Xingtang? I helped you out, and you still have the nerve to trouble me.
He put the Vairocana Sword on the ground, stretched out and said, "Good night, masters. I'll go back and rest first." He turned around and walked away. After taking a few steps, he thought of something and turned around and said, "Master Jingkong, can I Can’t you make a small suggestion?”
"you say!"
Yang Ning said: "That's what happened. I think the people in Wugutang are really in bad shape. You really need to take good care of them. If people really starve to death in Daguangming Temple and spread the word, it will be hard to say." He waved his hand and said: "I'm leaving first, good night you two!"
Seeing Yang Ning walking out of the palace door, Jing Neng asked softly: "Senior brother, why don't you ask about that person's whereabouts?"
"He doesn't want to say it, so we shouldn't ask more questions." Jingkong said solemnly: "Qining has been hiding it from the beginning. He wanted to hide it, but he was forced to take action." He sighed: "But Qining’s foundation doesn’t seem to be very deep, and I guess that’s why that person taught him a set of footwork.”
Jing Neng immediately asked: "Senior brother, are you saying that Qining's mysterious and unpredictable footwork was also passed down by that person?"
"There will be no one else except him." Jingkong said softly: "Although Qining's sword moves are exquisite, they are not skillful in using them. If nothing else happens, his sword skills should have been practiced for a long time. That person is probably now Right in the capital."
Jing Neng looked solemn and asked, "Does that person want to pass on his skills to Qining?"
"That's not necessarily true. Maybe it's just to teach Qining a few tricks so that Qining can protect himself." Jingkong said thoughtfully, slowly: "Even if he really gave it all to teach him, Qining wouldn't be able to reach his level. Then The realms of several people have exceeded the limitations of the physical body, and are close to monsters. They can never be compared with ordinary people." He sighed and said: "Bai Yuhe's swordsmanship will never be lower than the top five in today's world. He knows Qi Ning's origin, so the sword duel with Qi Ning was naturally not for Qi Ning, but for the person behind Qi Ning. Bai Yuhe wanted to have a sword duel with that person, but that person didn't have to do it himself, it could be said that he was using Qi Ning's sword. Ning Zhi's hand was able to defeat Bai Yuhe with just one move, which shows that that man's swordsmanship is no longer just at the level of a master, but can be done at will, almost like a god. The name of the Sword God is indeed well-deserved!"
