At midnight, the moon is high in the sky, shining with silvery light, dyeing the sky and the earth.
And in the cold light of the cold moon, a cold and graceful figure, like a fairy descending from the Moon Palace, rode on the clouds and mist, and landed quietly in the house on the west edge of Liangzhou City.
This purple gauze fairy is surprisingly the Donghai Sword Fairy who followed Miaomiao during the day and asked her to "become a disciple".
He is also the "question maker".
It is not difficult for Zisha Sword Fairy to find a girl who has just cultivated some true energy.
But even so, she had no intention of taking Miaomiao away by force.
What she hopes is that Miaomiao can choose to leave her by herself.
How to do that
Zisha Sword Fairy's idea is very simple, that is, to let Miaomiao experience "more subtle sword moves."
once having seen the best, the rest is not worthwhile looking.
If you have seen the sea and Wushan, how can you see other water clouds in your eyes
Zisha Sword Fairy felt that if Miaomiao saw the bigger world, she would no longer be limited to the small circle of her mortal brother.
What's more, the inheritors of the Heavenly Sword lineage all have one characteristic: that is, an almost demonic intuition, and Zisha Sword Fairy's intuition told her: Miaomiao is a girl who is extremely obsessed with the way of swordsmanship from the bottom of her heart.
Such a person who is obsessed with kendo will naturally have the idea to go to the East China Sea with her to practice kendo quietly after seeing the "broader world of kendo".
Therefore, Zisha Sword Fairy adopted the method of "proposing a question".
And the "question" she asked was not simple either.
This is one of the famous "Nine Heavens" of the East China Sea Heavenly Sword lineage.
"Nine Heavens" is an absolute killer move.
This kind of "killing move" can be called "forbidden power" as long as it is paired with the corresponding heavenly sword visualization method. It is very powerful. Even she thought hard for a long time before cracking the "Nineth Heavenly Sword". One Sword - One Sword: The rising tide of the blue sea and the rise and fall of clouds."
At this time, Zisha Sword Fairy had quietly walked to the eaves,
She glanced coldly and saw the page pressed under a piece of gray stone.
With a casual wave of his hand, the stone floated lightly into the air like a feather, and then fell lightly without making any sound.
And the piece of paper had floated to her ice-white hands.
The corners of Zisha Sword Immortal's lips curved into a cold arc, and then she read the "answer" on the paper under the moonlight.
A little while later…
Her cold smile froze.
The beautiful eyes squeezed tightly, and then stuck out her tongue coldly.
The action of sticking out her tongue is a strange way for her to express her emotions, probably from when she was a child.
However, due to living on an island with only the teacher's lineage of the East China Sea Sky Sword for a long time, this cute behavior has obviously never been corrected, and it has become a habit that cannot be changed.
Whenever she is surprised, coquettish, embarrassed, or in some other abnormal situation, she will stick out her tongue.
It’s hard to imagine that a swordsman would actually make such cute moves...
However, it's true.
There were obviously only a few actions and a few lines of words on that page.
However, Zisha Sword Immortal has watched it many times.
Experts will know if there is one as soon as they take action.
She closed her eyes and began to deduce various changes. When the deduction was over... only three words came out of her heart - too strong.
Zisha Sword Fairy stood in the moonlight for a long time, and the bright light fell on her graceful body.
A head of black hair was blown by the night wind, sometimes going south, sometimes north, sometimes west, sometimes east...
But her mind was blank, and her mind was "playing on a loop": impossible, impossible, impossible, impossible, impossible!
a long time…
A gust of cold wind slapped the sword fairy in the face.
She sobered up a bit and frowned.
He murmured softly: "It seems that I am not the only one who has taken a fancy to the little girl's talent..."
"The reason is very simple. No matter how terrifying the talent is, the little girl cannot write this cracking method by herself.
There must be an expert behind her.
The purpose of this expert's advice must be to tell me that this flower already has an owner. No, this is a disciple that already has a master. He wants me to retreat in spite of the difficulties. "
Zisha Sword Immortal paced back and forth a few times, a hint of pride flashed in her cold eyes.
"It's just the first sword that broke my Nine Heavens. What's so great about it?"
She thought for a moment, then took out the pen and ink paper from the storage space, and quickly wrote a page of paper with a little figure dancing a sword and text, and pressed it under the eaves again.
At the same time, he murmured: "Chen Xue is just going to compete with you in the sky to see if you can defeat my second Heaven - Tianhaiyun Biochemical Solitary Dragon."
After doing this, the Zisha Sword Immortal floated into the air coldly, and left directly on the wind as if his body was weightless.
the next day…
The genius is bright,
Miaomiao opened her eyes suddenly and bravely threw away the quilt.
Then I put on my clothes and boots and ran out the door. I saw a new "Q&A" under the stone, and I couldn't help but have questions on my face.
After a long time, she understood.
Since she should have answered correctly, the sword fairy asked another question.
"That's wrong, that's wrong..." Miaomiao muttered.
She clearly doesn't think highly of herself, so why can she answer correctly even if she is broken
There must be something fishy about this matter.
But Miaomiao is a fan of swordsmanship and can't take her eyes away when she sees the profound swordsmanship.
At this time, she held "Tian No. 2 - Tian Hai Yun Biochemical Solitary Dragon" and scanned it for a while.
At first glance, it seems ordinary, but when I look deeper, I feel trapped...
This question is actually more difficult than the previous question.
The level of complexity has completely reached a new level.
Miaomiao was squatting under the eaves. Suddenly she felt her legs were sore, so she got up and moved around.
Looking at the sky, he hurriedly took back the page, put it under his pillow, and then ran out to buy sesame cakes.
Yesterday I ate Mantian, and today I will eat sesame cakes.
She just left,
Xia Ji also got up.
Xia Ji knew very well that "Miao Miao hid all important items under the pillow", so he went directly to the opposite room, opened her pillow, and then discovered the "new question".
"This sword is stronger than yesterday's. Although it is exquisite and mysterious, it is not completely natural. It is still a little bit worse..."
Therefore, Xia Ji was not polite, looked at it for a while, and then answered the "question" with a stroke of his pen.
After finishing, he stuffed it back under the Miaomiao pillow, moved his body a little, then put on his coat and went to the courtyard to continue exercising.
When a layer of white hair and sweat appeared on the body, Miaomiao came back.
Miaomiao began to boil sesame seed cakes and make rice porridge as usual.
Considering that she would live here for a long time, she also bought some seeds such as radish and spinach, intending to produce and sell them at home, so that she would not have to spend money outside.
In addition, she is also considering buying two hens to raise so that she and Xia Ji can eat eggs often.
Miaomiao was busy with housework while planning.
Wait until the work is over,
She wiped her cold red hands, returned to the bedroom, lifted up the pillow, and prepared to continue thinking about the "quiz" in her free time.
However, the answers are already marked on the "questions and answers".
Miaomiao fell into silence, instinctively thinking that it might have been written by Xia Ji.
But she wasn't angry either,
But as she became immersed in that sword and the method of breaking it, she became obsessed without realizing it.
I just feel unfathomable...
That sword was exquisite and complex.
The method of cracking it is even more exquisite and difficult to describe.
After looking at it for a while, she gave up the idea of "Xia Ji scribbling".
Xia Ji grew up under her eyes. Although he was extraordinary, he was only a "potential stock" rather than a strong person who had grown up.
So... who wrote this "answer"
A flash of vigilance flashed in Miaomiao's cold eyes. She rushed outside the house and shouted: "Hey, Qi... Qi Mo, have you seen anyone suspicious coming?"
The two changed their names from "Su Yuan, Su Mo" to "Qi Miao, Qi Mo".
Xia Ji did not stop moving, but shook his head honestly.
…
That night.
When Zisha Sword Immortal saw the "Tianzhi Er" cracking method, he fell into chaos.
Then, she left "Third of Heaven".
The next night.
Zisha Sword Immortal arrived as promised and saw the "Three Heavens" cracking method.
For a moment, her chest rose and fell, and her body swayed like a cinnamon branch, unable to calm down for a long time.
No, the defense is about to be broken.
At the same time, she began to wonder who the person who broke the sword move was.
You must know that this "Nine Heavenly Sword" is not her sword move, but the supreme secret skill of the "Heavenly Sword Lineage". It is a secret skill that has been passed down for countless generations and has been improved by many talented elders in the sect...
Ordinary people can't understand anything, they can only understand ordinary sword moves.
And what she left behind was only the "tip of the iceberg" of "every sword".
But this person’s solution is just the “tip of the iceberg”…
But for Zisha Sword Immortal who understands the "Nine Heavens", that person is indeed broken. At least when the back moves are revealed, there is a high chance that he can be broken. This is broken.
The third day.
Zisha Sword Immortal stopped hiding and appeared directly to find Miaomiao.
Miaomiao had already known of her existence, so she was not afraid to hide.
Zisha Sword Immortal said sincerely: "I want to meet the person who gave you guidance."
Miaomiao looked strange, and she didn't know who the person who pointed her was.
Seeing her appearance, Zisha Sword Immortal suddenly understood in her heart, so she left another page of paper and gently pressed it under the stone of the eaves.
There was a sentence written on the page:
Zi Chenxue, a member of the East China Sea Heavenly Sword lineage, wants to meet fellow Taoist.
After staying, she left again.
To a certain extent, she already understood that she had lost the battle for disciples...
However, at this time, the East China Sea Sword Immortal named Zi Chenxue became extremely curious about the sword cultivator who cracked the first three swords of the "Nine Heavens".
…
But Zichenxue has a curious man who is listening to Xue Academy.
Others were thinking hard in the chess pavilion to break the chess game. When they entered the academy, Xia Ji was directly welcomed in by a teacher from the academy.
The teacher said: "Qi Mo, come with me."
Xia Ji nodded.
The two of them went deep into the academy, passed through many pavilions with different functions, and then continued along a path behind the academy.
Zhao Teng had a good impression of this young student who seemed to be from a poor family, and he exchanged a few words with him along the way.
"Although the academy is not a stubborn place, it also pays attention to seniority."
"No matter which teacher you see in the future, you must be respectful. If you are familiar with him, you can call him uncle or aunt."
"When you meet the dean later, you must pay attention to etiquette."
"There is no need to offend someone because of a verbal faux pas."
While they were talking, the two of them had arrived at a small building on the mountain that stood alone on a solitary peak.
Zhao Teng took two steps forward and said respectfully: "Dean, we are here."
A voice came from inside the house: "Zhao Teng, go to the mountain pass and wait."
The teacher responded and then retreated.
He went far away, and the door of the small building slowly opened.
The old man included was none other than Ouyang Mu, the old man who had been fishing the previous two days.
Ouyang Mu saw Xia Ji and smiled: "After much thought, I feel that it is not appropriate for the young gentleman to be an ordinary student.
Then I have two choices. The young gentleman can make his own decision, okay? "
Xia Ji said gently: "Please tell me."
The old man said: "I Tingxue Academy has three traditions.
First, those who nourish Qi can make the earth move and the mountains shake with the breath of their body and the Heavenly Constitution in their mouth.
Second, those who follow the formation path use their exquisite mystical mind to search for opportunities and carve the formation plate.
Third, as a general, he can swallow thousands of miles with his breath, gather thousands of troops, and become invincible on the battlefield. "
Having said this, he paused for a moment.
And Xia Ji probably understood deep down in his heart that the Confucian sect's inheritance for future generations would only be "general"...
As for the "qi nourishers" and "formation practitioners", they disappeared in the long river of history.
Only scattered precious formation plates and formation flags are left...
And this "Qi Nourisher" is quite similar to the "Tianxian" he created before.
In short, it means "following the rules" to a certain extent.
But it is different when you think about it, because the world at this time is still full of vitality, and it is not as decayed as in later generations.
In short, it should be easier to "mouth the Constitution of Heaven".
But correspondingly, if one's "Tianxian" is used here, the power should be stronger.
The old man continued: "The academies are all affiliated with Confucianism and Taoism, among which 'nourishing Qi' is the most important.
Each academy has its own unique method of 'nourishing Qi'.
However, the most difficult thing is not 'nurturing Qi', but 'formation'.
Carving a formation disk is an extremely difficult task. Only a genius who is a genius and is interested in the Tao of Formation can learn this method.
As for "general", he uses the formation disk or the second-class formation flag to lead thousands of troops and serve the dynasty.
so…
There is another saying among Confucianism.
Those who have the upper hand carve formations and become formation masters.
Those with a middle posture, nourishing Qi, are bachelors.
The person with a lower posture leads the troops and is a general.
However, the killing skills of the generals who lead the army are also very important. Most of these people served in major dynasties...
So it seems that the academy does not occupy a large area, just a few hills, but it has great influence and control over the dynasties of all parties.
Even in some countries, the first thing the emperor does after ascending the throne is to visit the academy and address him as a student. "
He paused and continued:
“Every inheritance naturally has a leader.
It's just that the formation master from Tingxue Academy is missing.
The young gentleman’s choice is,
First, by calling yourself a disciple, you will have greater authority and more freedom in the academy from now on.
Second, I accept the disciples on behalf of the deceased master, and let the young gentleman take over the formation path and revive the formation master inheritance of Tingxue Academy. "
The old man said it very frankly.
He was very happy that such a "born saint" could enter Tingxue Academy, and this choice was an unprecedented and almost unconstrained choice that he had thought about for a long time.
Especially "taking over the formation inheritance" is simply an incredible choice.
but,
No matter how Xia Ji chooses, he will gain a lot of power background in Beitang, which is affiliated with Liangzhou City.
If he chooses to be Ouyang Mu's nominal disciple, he will be the disciple of many famous generals and bachelors from the Northern Tang Dynasty and even other countries.
Junior brothers are taken care of, and they may have senior brothers and sisters to help solve problems, but at the same time, they also lose a certain right to speak.
If he chooses to be Ouyang Mu's junior disciple...then those general bachelors who come out of Tingxue Academy will most likely call him uncle.
The uncle's job is to take care of others and help others solve their problems, but correspondingly, he also has the right to speak.
The old man did not urge him, but explained to Xia Ji in detail some of the permissions and benefits brought by these two choices.
in short,
If Xia Ji becomes the nominal disciple of the dean, with the academy's "Qi-nourishing inheritance", he can instantly acquire the very high-level "Qi-nourishing mysterious skills" and be taught by many famous teachers.
At the same time, no matter what problems he encounters on the road of spiritual practice in the future, there will be someone who can answer them and help him overcome them.
But if Xia Ji chooses to take over the "Array", then he can have more resources.
But on the way to the formation, he could only explore on his own. Others could at most discuss with him, but could not give guidance.
If he encounters a bottleneck, he will naturally have no choice but to find ways to break through.
Xia Ji made a brief analysis and said directly: "I am willing to take over the formation inheritance."
The old man looked at him deeply.
Xia Jidao: "There is no need to tell the world."
The old man understood what he meant.
The next moment, he shouted: "Zhao Teng."
The academy teacher who was waiting at the mountain pass came back.
The old man glanced at him and said slowly: "From now on, this young Mr. Qi Mo will be your uncle."
Master uncle? ! ! !
Zhao Teng's eyes widened suddenly, with questions in his eyes.
?
