The night is charming, and the people are even more charming.
By the lake, the breeze was blowing, and Hongzhu, dressed in red, was sitting there quietly, with a flawless profile, which was mesmerizing.
Li Ziye sat next to Hongzhu, smelling the refreshing aroma, and felt a little dazed for a moment.
Sister Hongzhu has also grown up.
The first time we met when we were young, on the streets of Yuzhou City, Sister Hongzhu was wearing tattered clothes and even her shoes had holes, and she looked extremely pitiful.
He brought Sister Hongzhu back to the Li Mansion. At that time, he had just turned seven years old, and Sister Hongzhu was only ten years old.
Unexpectedly, ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.
"Sister Hongzhu, have you ever thought about going home?"
Li Ziye asked softly. He had asked Sister Hongzhu about her life experience before, but at that time, she didn't want to tell her, so he didn't ask any more questions.
"I have no home." Hongzhu was silent, and after a moment, she said.
"As long as Sister Hongzhu is willing, Li Mansion will always be Sister Hongzhu's home." Li Ziye said with a gentle expression.
When Hongzhu heard this, she looked startled, and then a bright smile appeared on her beautiful face, and she said, "Xiao Ziye, you have really grown up, and you can say nice things to coax girls."
Li Ziye also had a smile on his face and said, "Sister Hongzhu has noticed this."
"Okay, it's getting late, you should go back to your room and rest early."
Hongzhu stood up, brushed her long hair around her ears, and said softly, "I will take that Yin Kuang back to the capital early tomorrow morning."
"So anxious?" Li Ziye stood up in surprise and asked.
"It's time for your second brother to hire people. Our foundation in the capital is still too weak. If we want to make a difference, we must speed up the deployment of manpower."
Hongzhu said something, then lost her temper and said, "These are not all to pave the way for you to come to the capital in the future. You should try to gain some energy and practice hard. The capital is deep in water. If something happens, even your second brother and I will not be sure. I can protect you."
"Sister Hongzhu, don't worry."
Li Ziye nodded vigorously and said, "I will definitely let our Li family produce a world-famous swordsman."
"The tone is not small."
Hongzhu said with a smile, turned around and returned to the room without saying another word.
By the lake, Li Ziye looked at the former's back. After a long time, he picked up the sword beside him and continued practicing.
Under the moonlight, the sword was as bright as frost. Li Ziye's body flew out again and again, fell to the ground, and then got up again.
The first movement of Flying Immortal Technique only has nine steps. It seems simple, but it is extremely difficult to practice.
Li Ziye practiced day and night for many days, but he still couldn't take the last step.
I don’t know how long I have been practicing. In the sky, the bright moon is moving westward, and the night is extremely dark.
"Keng!"
The sword edge hit the ground, and Li Ziye knelt on the ground and gasped for air. Even in this cold autumn, his face was covered with sweat.
He didn't believe it. He couldn't succeed in this last step!
The young man was persistent and refused to admit defeat. Li Ziye struggled to get up and started practicing again.
The night is getting darker and darker, and in the east, a flash of white appears, and dawn is approaching.
In the room not far away, the door opened and Hongzhu walked out.
In the room next to Hongzhu, a strange man also walked out. His appearance and figure were completely different from before.
At this moment, Li Ziye's figure flashed past in the backyard, like a roar, like thunder, eight steps away, passing by in an instant.
The last step in the air, Li Ziye stepped forward in the air, his strength sank, and an inch-deep footprint appeared on the ground. In an instant, the sword came out, and the sky and the earth were aligned.
"boom!"
Ahead, the ancient sword passed across, the rockery collapsed, gravel flew, and fell like rain.
"Hoo! Hoo!"
After one strike of the sword, Li Ziye landed on the ground, panting heavily from exhaustion and almost unable to stand firmly.
Hongzhu stepped forward, supported the former, and said softly, "Although practicing swordsmanship is important, don't push yourself too hard."
"Squeak!"
On the other side, the door opened. Qin Wugna and Zhang Sulu walked out of their rooms at the same time after hearing the noise outside.
Success?
Qin Wanna looked at the broken stones in front of her and looked surprised.
"Not bad."
Zhang grinned sloppily, showing his big teeth and said.
Under the gaze of the two people, Li Ziye straightened up, looked at the woman beside him, and said tiredly, "Sister Hongzhu, are you leaving?"
"Yeah." Hongzhu nodded.
Li Ziye looked at the strange man not far away, a strange look flashed on his face, and said, "When we arrive in the capital, everything will be subject to Sister Hongzhu's arrangements, do you understand?"
"I know."
Yin Kuang responded in a deep voice and said.
"Sister Hongzhu, I'll give it to you."
After saying that, Li Ziye walked towards the front yard with the two of them.
In front of the house, Hongzhu and Yin Kuang got on the carriage. Li Ziye watched the carriage go away, remained silent for a long time, and then turned back to the house.
In the backyard, Qin Grace was already waiting. When she saw the former coming back, she looked at Zhang Sgru and said, "Sword Chi, you can teach me the second move."
"good."
Zhang Slutty nodded and said, "Boy, watch it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Sloppy waved his hand and raised his sword. He drank wine and flew out like a dragon.
The movements are unpredictable, and the direction of each step is unpredictable. After eighteen steps, the meaning of the sword reaches its peak. Zhang Slutty holds the sword with both hands and breaks the sky with one sword.
Boom!
I heard an earth-shattering vibration, and in front of me, a towering tree fell down and split into two in the middle, which was shocking.
When Li Ziye saw this astonishing sword, he was so shocked that he was speechless.
"old."
Zhang Sloppy waved his hand and sheathed his sword, took another sip of wine, and said with emotion, "If I were a few years younger, old man, I could split half of the Li Mansion with one sword. It would be even more shocking if I demonstrated it."
"Forget it then."
Li Ziye came back to his senses, looked at the mess in the garden, and said with a wry smile, "You are already very powerful now."
"Practice hard."
Zhang Slutty walked back to the lake with his sword in hand, patted the former's shoulder and said, Tao, Jue, there are nine moves in total, and the difficulty will increase exponentially, especially the last three moves. Even Qin Grace and I can't teach you. I hope that in the future Before my old man is buried, I can see you recreating the earth-shattering three skills of flying immortals in the past. "
"As much as possible."
Li Ziye smiled dryly.
"Go practice sword practice."
On the side, Qin Grace said.
"Um."
Li Ziye responded lightly and immediately went to practice with his sword.
"Sword Chi, this is not the way to go."
By the lake, Qin Grace spoke softly, "It's too slow. The first two moves are okay, the third move has twenty-seven steps, and the fourth move has thirty-six steps. At his current speed, I don’t know how many years it will take to practice.”
Zhang was silent for a long time, and then sighed, "He has worked hard enough, but he only has one channel open now, and his cultivation speed and ability to control his body are limited."
"I'm going to the capital."
Qin Wegna said in a deep voice, "Here, leave it to you."
Zhang Sulu was shocked when he heard this and said, "Are you really going to Taixue Palace?"
“Always try.”
Qin Wanna said solemnly, "So far, we only know the whereabouts of this medicine king, and we have no choice."
"When are you going to leave?" Zhang Slutty sighed.
"Today." Qin Grace replied.
Zhang Slutty frowned, but did not try to persuade him any more. He nodded and said, "I will take care of this place in the Li Mansion."
"Thank you."
Qin Wegna said something, reached out and pulled out the Qingshuang Sword on the side, and immediately walked out of the backyard.
In the distance, Li Ziye, who was still struggling with the first three steps of the second move, got up from the ground in embarrassment. When he saw Qin Grace leaving, he wondered, "Where did Old Qin go?"
"Capital." Zhang said in a sloppy arc.
"capital?"
Li Ziye was startled and asked, "Why are you going to the capital?"
"Get you some medicine."
Zhang sloppily replied, "Stop talking nonsense and continue practicing your sword."
Li Ziye looked at the direction Qin Wenna left, then quickly recovered his concentration and continued practicing his sword.
Lao Qin was leaving, why didn't he say hello?
Outside Yuzhou City, the carriage Hongzhu and Yin Kuang were riding in had just left the city. From behind, a beautiful figure jumped up, holding an ancient sword and moving as gracefully as an immortal. After a few breaths, he overtook the carriage and continued to rush towards the distance.
Two days later, the Great Shang Capital City.
Qin Grace entered the city with a sword.
Taixue Palace, a simple courtyard, is full of flowers and plants. The courtyard is full of vegetables. From time to time, chickens and ducks come to eat insects, which is very lively.
In the courtyard, an old man dressed in plain Confucian robes scooped up a ladle of water and carefully watered the vegetables in the garden.
The old man looked really old, his face was full of wrinkles, and even his eyes seemed to be cloudy.
However, even so, no one in the world dared to underestimate the old man in front of him.
Confucius, the leader of Confucianism, was the belief in the minds of Confucian scholars all over the world, and was even hailed as a saint living in the contemporary world.
No one knows how strong Confucian leader is, because Confucian leader rarely leaves the capital, and in this big commercial capital, Confucian leader is never defeated.
The world is vast and there are countless strong men. The only one who dares to claim to be invincible is the Confucian leader.
Therefore, as long as the Confucian leader does not leave the capital of Great Shang, no one will dare to challenge this living saint.
"Now that you're here, show up."
Autumn leaves fell, and in the small courtyard, Kong Qiu said while watering the vegetables in the garden.
"Qin Grace, pay your respects to the Confucian leader."
Outside the hospital, Qin Grace appeared and saluted politely.
"The Plum Blossom Sword Immortal is here, what's the matter?"
Confucius asked without raising his head.
"I came to ask for something."
Qin Grace said seriously, "The Medicine King of Taixue Palace, Thousand-year-old Polygonum multiflorum."
"Ask for medicine."
Confucius said calmly, "Is it to save people?"
"no."
Qin Weina shook her head and said truthfully, "To open my pulse."
"Then the third son of the Li family, aren't they prodigies in martial arts?" Confucius continued to ask.
"no."
Qin Weina shook her head again.
"Ah."
Confucius heard this, smiled and said, "I just said, it's not me, the old man, who made the mistake."
Qin Graceland narrowed her eyes when she heard this. They all said that Confucian leaders are the most important thing in the world. Now it seems that it may not be a lie.
"Thousand-year-old Polygonum multiflorum, we do have it in Taixue Palace. It can also be given to the third son of the Li family."
At this point, Confucius changed his tone and continued, "But, not now."
"What does the Confucian leader mean?" Qin Wanna asked in a condensed voice.
"When the third son of the Li family comes to Taixue Palace, I will tell him personally." Confucius replied.
"I'm afraid he won't come to the capital."
Qin Wanna frowned and said, she could guess some of Li Ziye's thoughts. He was very repelled by this big commercial capital and was unwilling to come.
"Whether he comes or not is not decided by his will."
Confucius put down the ladle of water in his hand and said, "Would you like to make a bet? If the three sons of the Li family come to the capital within ten days, the Plum Blossom Sword Immortal will give lectures to our Taixue Palace for a year. Offer it up."
When Qin Grace heard this, a strange color flashed in her eyes, she thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, I will make a bet with the Confucian leader."
