In Guangyuan County City, it is said that there are many crowds of onlookers at the entrance of Fuyuanlou, the best restaurant.
These people stood quietly nearby, all of them stretched their necks and looked into the restaurant eagerly, but their feet didn't move. They seemed to have discovered something new and were extremely curious, but they didn't dare to act rashly. Go in? It means to watch the excitement. Such a gesture attracted more onlookers who didn't know the truth, and the crowd gathered more and more.
Fuyuanlou had no choice but to send out the guards, fiercely, to disperse some of these onlookers.
But there are still many people looking around with their feet on their hands.
Some passers-by didn't know why, so they picked it up casually. One person asked: "Ma'am, what happened? Why are so many people watching the fun here?"
The aunt who was stopped looked about forty or ten years old, and she was holding a basket full of Dang? Not annoyed, but as if he had found someone to share gossip with, he said happily:
"What else can it be! Just now, several sword immortals entered the Fuyuan Building. Boss Zhu of the Fuyuan Building was so happy that he came forward to meet him personally. It’s a place visited by Sword Immortals, that is to say, we poor people don’t have much money, otherwise we must come here often? It’s because of the fairy spirit.”
She uttered words quickly and clearly, and a series of words poured out of her mouth non-stop. Hearing that, the man's eyes widened, and he still couldn't believe it: "Is it true or not? Didn't it mean Sword Immortal?" What you drink is celestial dew, what you eat is celestial fruit? Even if it’s steamed buns? Is that also steamed from celestial energy?”
The Sword Immortal in these populations refers to the Foundation Establishment Realm Sword Cultivator. They can control the flying of the spirit sword for a short time, and in the eyes of ordinary people who don't know the inside story, they can be called immortals.
Forging the body, building the foundation, mastering the mysteries, and mastering the gods, the realm of swordsmanship in this world is divided into four stages, but there is a huge gap between each two realms. In other worlds, there can be several divisions in the middle. level up. Especially the change from forging the body to building the foundation is almost equivalent to the transformation from the mysterious to the spiritual. If the latter is said to be from a human to a god, the former is from an ordinary to an extraordinary, which is a leap in the level of life.
Although the world of swordsmanship is prosperous and everyone can learn swordsmanship, most of the secular warriors can only be considered to be in the state of physical training, and the first-rate masters who are sought after by countless people in the world are just the pinnacle of physical training.
And this kind of people, no matter how good their swordsmanship is, they are nothing more than mortals in the eyes of the major sects.
Only by possessing a spirit sword embryo and accumulating spirituality, through which one can draw energy into one's body and successfully build a foundation, can one be regarded as extraordinary and free from vulgarity, reaching the sky in one step.
But spirit sword embryos are extremely precious, and many people spend their entire lives, and it is difficult to buy them even if they go bankrupt. What's more, most of the spirit sword embryos are produced by the Sword Forging Sect and other small sects in the Western Regions. Generally, it will be directly supplied to the major sects and powers, and it is rarely released to the market. Even if ordinary people have money, it is rare. If you want to get a spiritual sword embryo, you need connections, qualifications, and luck. No.
Therefore, the so-called martial arts rivers and lakes in the world, such as first-rate, second-rate and third-rate masters, are nothing but mortals. Only those sword cultivators who have joined the cultivation sect and successfully established their foundations can be considered as truly embarked on the road of cultivation.
And these sword cultivators who have set foot on the avenue of practice put their minds on the avenue. Even if they are fighting, they are fighting with other monks, or going deep and dangerous to kill monsters. Few people are willing to mix with the common people. among. Therefore, many people may have never seen a real swordsman in their entire life, and occasionally see them coming, going, and walking with a sword, so they naturally regard them as sword immortals.
In this way, the curiosity and excitement of the onlookers, as well as the disbelief of the audience later, are understandable.
The aunt was originally beaming and dancing, but when she saw that the people behind her still didn't believe her words, she said loudly: "Hey! How could it be fake? I bought cloth in the cloth shop opposite, look Really, it flew down from the sky, and landed directly in the Fuyuan Building. The one flying in the front was a sword, and no one controlled it. It flew up like a long sword. It looks like it has eyes, it must have become a spirit!"
Saying this, the surprise on her face was undisguised. Although it was exaggerated, other people were also shocked by her description, which made her shock inconspicuous.
"...Are you sure it's a single sword flying in front, and no one is driving it?"
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind the crowd. When everyone heard the sound and looked around, it was as if there were four or five more people in the crowd. There are men and women, all born young and handsome, but full of momentum, with particularly bright eyes, as if they are the children of great masters who have traveled the rivers and lakes.
The momentum of the few people was too strong, making the surrounding atmosphere feel quiet? Come on? Everyone who was still gossiping became very cautious, and the old lady restrained her demeanor unconsciously, and said respectfully: "That's it, I read it right, it's a single sword."
The young man who asked the question nodded? He didn't say any more.
He and his companions looked at each other, and quietly stood aside, the junior brother beside him couldn't wait to say: "Brother Xie, most of these people are telling lies, they can exchange swords on their own without the presence of the sword master , unless you have the Excalibur of the Sword Spirit, how is this possible! I think it is probably a few so-called heroes who come from high
The young man called Senior Brother Xie shook his head slightly, looked towards the direction of the restaurant, and said, "Zhou Tianyi can't make mistakes in numbers. Since I came here on a whim, there must be something special..."
When he said this, the others stopped talking.
They are still very convinced of Senior Brother Xie's attainments in "Zhou Tian Yi Shu".
This is the top peerless skill of the Qunxing Pavilion. Only those with extraordinary talents can practice it. Even if you learn the superficial knowledge, you can predict the enemy ahead of you in battle, see the opportunities everywhere, and usually bring superpowers to people. The intuition makes people seek blessings and avoid disasters, and turn dangers into safety.
As for Xie Lan, he is the only disciple of Qunxing Pavilion who has successfully practiced this exercise.
Different from other sects, practicing the art of playing swords, paying attention to the sword-like pavilion of the stars, paying great attention to the cultivation of the disciples' minds, and often sending disciples to experience in the mortal world, to gain insight into the mystery in a pile of mundane things , turning the complex situation into a chess game, and using the world to hone your game skills.
This time, a few people also passed by Guangyuan County by accident. They didn't plan to stay in the city, but Xie Lan suddenly felt something, so they went into the city to have a look, and they heard these common people talking about the "Sword Immortal" , suddenly became curious
Xie Lan muttered thoughtfully: "If these people are not mistaken, we may have met someone of the same way. The divine sword that gave birth to the sword spirit... Could it be that person?"
Several younger brothers and younger sisters looked at each other, immediately remembered a certain rumor, and tentatively asked: "Brother Xie is saying that the "Wusheng Sword" is more dusty? It is rumored that although his cultivation base is completely useless, his natal spirit sword has been upgraded to a divine sword, but this is probably a rumor released by Qiong Yuanzong. The chief true biography is so useless, so we must find ways to save face. "
Several of them looked like they didn't quite believe it.
"Really..." Xie Lan shook her head slightly, and didn't say any more.
He is always unwilling to believe that Yuechen is just useless like this. As an opponent who has been defeated and defeated repeatedly, if that man is defeated so easily and can never get up again? He will not be happy about it? , I only feel that my past self was too worthless to lose.
Probably, this is also the reason why he was the first one when he heard that there might be an Excalibur. He thought of that person and insisted on going his own way and waiting outside, right? He wanted to find out.
Before Xie Lan and the others could say a few more words, there was another commotion at the entrance of Fuyuan Building. Xie Lan and the others looked up and saw a group of people being sent out respectfully by the restaurant owner.
He didn't recognize those inner sect disciples of the Qiongyuan Sect, but he had seen the two leading disciples more than once, especially Shi Yifei, who impressed him even more.
As a cultivator, his temperament is different from that of ordinary people. The crowd who had been looking around before almost spontaneously stepped aside, making this pedestrian look particularly eye-catching.
But at this moment, they are not the ones who attract the most attention. Even Shi Yifei, an acquaintance, can't attract Xie Lan's attention. on the sword.
The whole body of this sword is pitch black, and the scabbard is simple and long, as if it has been cultivated from a cold spring in a cold pool, deep and icy. However, there was a large package wrapped around the scabbard, which could be vaguely seen to be in the shape of a food box.
This divine sword, which is absolutely extraordinary at first glance, can make countless sword cultivators fall in love at first sight, so lightly suspended beside Shi Yifei, while flying forward, while carrying a strange food box , flying very smoothly. This picture is like the most beautiful woman in the world, with a head on her head, working hard in the field. It makes people feel extremely sad while being shocked. sick head.
Xie Lan and the others were already completely stunned.
Such a scene was something they never expected.
... The legend of the divine sword seems to be true, but what seems to be wrong with this divine sword? ? ? Let Excalibur carry the food box together? Is it really okay for a group of sword cultivators to just do this
Probably because they stood here too conspicuously, Shi Yifei and others over there soon found them, all showed surprise, and walked over here
Shi Yifei said hello casually, and was about to say goodbye without saying much. He hasn't forgotten what the second senior brother Fang Mo once said. This is a treacherous villain who secretly covets the status of the big brother and wants to get into trouble. The simple and kind-hearted him must not be able to play.
And Xie Lan endured and endured, but he still couldn't hold back and said, "This divine sword... so? The rumors are true, and the natal spirit sword of Yue Daoyou has been upgraded to a divine sword?"
"That's right, this is the natal spirit sword of the senior brother." Shi Yifei showed a bit of pride on his face, determined not to lose face to the senior brother in front of the other party, and deliberately rejoiced, "Let's come out this time? The extermination of the remnants of Xie Yuanzong was only possible thanks to the divine sword."
... Let these guys who are secretly provoking and coveting the position of the senior brother know that the current senior senior brother is also very powerful, and they are not something they can casually mock!
The arc of the smile on Xie Lan's lips remained unchanged.
He noticed that when Shi Yifei spoke, there was a momentary surprise on the faces of several other people, although they quickly covered it up, they all agreed with Shi Yifei's words. But it also shows that this true disciple of Qiongyuanzong did not tell the truth.
Reminiscent of Yuechen? He hasn’t appeared in front of people for a long time, and there are rumors that his cultivation base is ruined and difficult to recover. Now, look at this divine sword with a food box hanging on it... how much Yuechen used to love swords so much , as his opponent, he knows very well that it is absolutely impossible for him to tarnish his natal spirit sword like this... All these things are connected into clues, pointing to the only one possibility.
That "Wusheng Sword" Yuechen has already fallen.
Maybe, I really overestimated him
Thinking this way, Xie Lan sighed with three points of regret and three points of emotion, condescending to four points.
Shi Yifei didn't catch this complex fan-shaped graph emotion, he only felt that Xie Lan sighed in disappointment, and said softly: "Fellow Daoist... Sigh, please tell him, please let him take care of himself. "
"???" The second monk Shi Yi and Fei Zhang couldn't figure it out, but seeing that Xie Lan had already turned away with someone, his back looked unspeakably melancholy, and his head was filled with question marks.
He couldn’t help asking the others: “What happened to him?”
The others thought about it seriously, and replied: "Probably because he found out that the elder brother actually has a divine sword, but he is still standing still, so he feels inferior, but he has nothing to say. In order to save his respect, Can I just say something harsh?"
Shi Yifei thought it made sense.
He took a sympathetic look at the retreating figure, and muttered again: "Hey! It's not as good as senior brother, shouldn't he be used to it long ago? Life is about looking away. How long can we live happily? Ah."
Xie Lan, who hadn't gone far, heard the faint words coming from behind, almost fell down, and shook her head helplessly.
"... Unexpectedly, the current Qiong Yuanzong has fallen to this point, and can only rely on self-deception to maintain its dignity."
The younger brothers and younger sisters are still a little unclear.
Xie Lan just sighed lightly, looking up at the sky with her hands behind her back.
His white clothes fluttered, his chin was raised at four to fifteen degrees, his expression was melancholy, and he had the lonely demeanor of a master:
"Go back? Let's go, the experience is over. I overestimated him, Yue Chen... is no longer worthy of being my opponent."
His going out this time to practice is to prepare for the sword competition in the near future. He wants to appear in front of that person in the most peak state. If he hasn't exerted his strength, the opponent will fall? And what's the point
The two sides chatted with each other, supplemented each other's brains, and there was no conflict. They returned to the sect with only sympathy and disappointment for each other.
And Ye Miaomiao, the delivery man, flew into the crowd with his teacher Yifei and others, attracting the attention of many Qiongyuanzong disciples, after all, this appearance is really eye-catching.
"... what's that? Food box?"
"Why is Seventh Senior Brother still coveting this bit of appetite? And it's not good to let the Excalibur carry it."
"Yes, this is the natal spirit sword of the elder brother..."
Many Qiongyuanzong disciples murmured for a while, feeling that Shi Yifei's deviant and rebellious behavior not only disrespected the elder brother, but also hurt Qiongyuanzong's face a bit.
Who has ever seen Excalibur come back with "takeaway" after going out to do a mission? All the way swaggering through the market? ?
What if? It would be too embarrassing for people to know that he is a disciple of Qiong Yuanzong.
Under everyone's disapproving gaze, Excalibur didn't stop, and flew all the way towards the Bamboo Sea with the food box.
Shi Yifei, who landed later, spread out his hands, saying that this is the dessert that the elder brother personally ordered, and it came from Fuyuan Building, Guangyuan County.
Everyone suddenly realized, and their tone changed instantly, as if they completely forgot what they just said, and started to lick one by one.
"... So it was the senior brother who wanted it, so I said how could the seventh senior brother instruct him to move the sword spirit! It really is like this!"
"Yes, yes, I have eaten the cakes at Fuyuanlou, and they are indeed delicious, big brother, they taste so good!"
"You? When did you go? Pass Fuyuan Building? If I remember correctly, you? Are not from Guangyuan County. After going up the mountain, you never went down? Passed the mountain, right?"
"Cough, don't worry about it so much, next time, next time."
"It's because of my lack of knowledge. Eldest senior brother is really Jian Xin? Tong Ming, watching his actions, makes people feel enlightened and suddenly enlightened. Sword repair is also a human being, and a person lives a lifetime, so he should follow his heart. Yu Jianqianli , just to satisfy the appetite, who can do this besides the big brother? From the heart? What you want, straight to the heart? This is the right path!"
"It makes sense, how does the seventh senior brother know what food? It turns out that this is the master's handwriting. Since the senior brother likes it, next time I can help bring it..."
"I also… "
Shi Yifei with sharp eyes and ears: "???"
