After getting his sword, Xue Yeyu felt like he was reborn. Like all swordsmen, she carried the sword behind her back and began her journey to learn the sword.
Since it is said to be a "journey", it means that it is a journey, both physically and psychologically. Sword masters work very hard to learn the sword. They try their best to learn the sword. Sometimes they have to travel thousands of miles with their sword to various places to understand the "sword". Sometimes they have to practice hard in seclusion. They have to clear away distracting thoughts for several years and stay close to the sword wholeheartedly. , or engage in a life-and-death battle, pursuing a glimmer of inspiration in the battle, hoping to impress your sword at a certain moment, "the stone will open" and become a true swordsman.
Everyone has a different way of understanding the sword. They often choose the first thing that comes to their mind. Everyone believes that it is a kind of divine will.
"I want to go back and be with my owl first."
When they arrived at the ferry outside the city, where Tang Zhao said goodbye to Xue Yeyu, Xue Yeyu revealed his plan.
A few days ago, she had just gotten the sword and had it repaired for a day. After she calmed down, she wanted to take charge of the branch of Zhongtian Mansion nearby, and then actually sorted out the sword's heart. However, she found that Zhongtian Mansion was under martial law everywhere. Although there was no military control on the surface, the internal atmosphere had already The situation is tense and it is not the time to open a shop or do business.
After discussing with Tang Zhao, she put the Zhongtian Mansion plan on hold and left only one shop for the time being, waiting to see what the news was after the new year.
At this point, her affairs in Zhongtian Mansion have been completed. Now she can freely choose where to go, and she still focuses on her plan to realize the sword.
"I feel that the sword has something to do with them. I first got to know the owls closely and lived in the woods for a while. I ate, slept, and rested with them, and I reached the point where my mind and heart were united. If I can't understand , take the owls on a journey, and experience the world with them in heaven and earth."
Tang Zhao agreed very much and said: "This method is good. Senior sister will definitely become a swordsman soon."
Xue Yeyu smiled and said: "It's all because of you that I was able to succeed so smoothly. I know that you are not a thing in the pool, and you will go straight to the clouds sooner or later. I have gained strength after becoming a swordsman, and leave the family to me. You Just spread your wings and fly high."
Tang Zhao said: "Sister also has wings, how can the responsibility be placed on only one person? Everyone will take off sooner or later."
The two said goodbye at the ferry, and Xu Zhongnan, who came with them, also said goodbye, and Xue Yeyu left with his sword on his back.
Xu Zhongnan watched Xue Yeyu leave, feeling a little melancholy - he would not go up the mountain again in a short time, and it might be a few years before he saw this junior sister he had grown up with.
"You seem to think that Junior Sister Du's sword elephant must be an owl?"
Tang Zhao said: "That's right? The sword elephant is extremely affected by one's thoughts and emotions. As long as the sword intention is related to the owl, the senior sister will definitely think of the owl first, and the possibility of the owl is extremely high."
Xu Zhongnan thought thoughtfully and said: "Speaking of which, how do you confirm that the 'Jie Crow' sword matches the junior sister? I heard that you once guessed another person's suitable sword out of thin air before. What tips do you have?" Can’t do it?”
The other person he was talking about was naturally Wei Changle. Tang Zhao asked Wei Changle to try the "Unforgettable" sword at that time, and they were matched. Therefore, Wei Changle chose to go on a dangerous mission. If he could return with meritorious service, he would become a swordsman again in an instant. But if the army fails to succeed, if you look closely, Tang Zhao is also the source.
Tang Zhao said: "I think there are similarities between crows and owls. Since the sword elephant directly points to the sword's intention, there may be an essential connection, and the probability of senior sister matching is higher."
Xu Zhongnan said: "What are the similarities between crows and owls..."
Tang Zhao said: "They are all unlucky birds that represent the coming of disasters. Not to mention crows, some people also call owls 'mourning birds'."
Xu Zhongnan thought about it carefully and suddenly laughed and said: "Aren't you just guessing? Owls are similar to crows, are they similar to cats? Are they similar to eagles? I heard that your land inspection department also has a raccoon flower sword , does her sword match that of junior sister? Alas, I also asked you for any secrets, and I specifically asked for them, but in the end I was fooled."
Tang Zhao smiled and said: "It's a blur, but I'm sure it's accurate. This isn't called a mask, it's called a sixth sense."
In fact, rather than talking about the sixth sense, it is better to say that he has a stronger ability to analyze the sword intention from the sword image, and can see the essence through the phenomenon.
The so-called compatibility is essentially the compatibility of sword intentions. Tang Zhao only saw Jie Crow once, but when he saw the overwhelming crowd of crows, he felt an ominous feeling. He remembered this feeling and found this feeling from the owls that lived all over the Jiugao Mountain. Only then could he Guess Xue Yeyu's direction.
As for the sword that I saw in the sword manual, the meaning of the sword that cannot be obtained is "attention", and then it is related to the disappearance of "neglect", it is nothing, it even feels a bit cheating.
Tang Zhaoxiao asked: "Senior brother, do you want to think about your sword?"
He asked this not because he wanted to take over the sword from his senior brother, but to remind him that he could speak to his master.
Xue Xianyun is naturally the most beloved disciple. In addition, he also has a deep relationship with his second disciple Zaozao, and then there are the two younger disciples. Now that the eldest disciple has rebelled and his daughter has a sword, who can give it to the second disciple if she wants to make a sword again?
In fact, Xue Xianyun would definitely be willing to do so, but he and his second apprentice would be noisy and awkward, so he would definitely not take the initiative to ask for it. If Xu Zhongnan wanted it, just ask for it, and maybe it could ease the superficial relationship between the two. relation.
Xu Zhongnan sighed: "You don't know that I will not become a swordsman even if I serve under the Imperial Master for one day. That is a completely different path."
Tang Zhao was curious, how could it be completely different? Haven't you heard that the Imperial Master is a spiritual officer? Good guy, if the imperial master of the Jin Dynasty were the spiritual official of the Wei Dynasty, wouldn't that turn things upside down?
Besides, what is a swordsman? Aren't the two different paths in the world just swordsman and spirit officer? The one that Zhu Yang made by himself is still a mirror. If the Imperial Master had another path, it would have been known to the whole world, right?
Moreover, restricting the ability to become a swordsman should be a kind of control over subordinates, right? Could it be that senior brother has something to hide?
Xu Zhongnan sighed and suddenly said: "I still have to go back. I've been out for too long, and I'm afraid someone will take my place when I go back. It's better to choose a different day, so let's set off today."
Tang Zhao wanted to persuade him to go home and rest if he was unhappy, but he felt that there was no need to dissuade him, so he only said: "Senior brother often goes home to see Master. He really wants to see you."
Xu Zhongnan said: "Of course, if you have the opportunity, come to the capital to see my senior brother. There are many good things in the capital, and it would be good to broaden your horizons." He whispered: "If you can't survive in Yunzhou, come to the capital Come to me, as long as I protect you, Marquis Gao Yuan can't do anything to you."
Tang Zhao smiled and nodded, and the two said goodbye. Xu Zhongnan didn't waste any time. Anyway, he had all his luggage with him, so he left immediately. He hired a small boat and crossed the Tongyang River along the river.
Only two of the four people who came with the group were left. Tang Zhao was left with only Wei Se.
Tang Zhao felt a little sad. He had been at Zhuoyu Villa for four years, and the only time he left was longer when he went to Jianzhou, but it was also a journey, and now he would finally leave home for a long time. It’s not just a few months of temporary employment in the training camp. There will be more work to do in the future and a longer-term future to strive for. Even if he returns to Zhuoyu Villa, he will just take a nap like Senior Brother Xu to recuperate his health. I have to go out eventually.
He's finally getting a job.
Returning to his temporary base, Tang Zhao put on a new uniform. It was not the military attache's official uniform of the General Inspectorate Division, but the uniform of an instructor, marking that he had become the official sixth-grade instructor of the Inspectorate Division's training camp.
The level of the training camp is not low. The mountain chief holds the title of deputy commander. Under him there is a teaching chief, four instructors, a dozen teachers, and an uncertain number of teaching assistants. Among them, the teaching metaphors are all swordsmen and spiritual officers, and the instructors are Sans and swordsmen.
When Tang Zhao first arrived, he was supposed to join as a teacher for a while and then be promoted to teaching. But he originally went to the town, and a low official position was not conducive to prestige. At this time, there were only a few teachers in the training camp, but there was only one teaching lesson left, and there was no one above him. There was no need to wait for the ready-made vacancies. Moreover, he was strong enough, so he directly became Jiao Yu, on the same level as Xing Yu who stayed behind, and was in charge of the training camp.
At this time, Wei Se also changed his clothes and looked like a teaching assistant. For the sake of convenience, Tang Zhao hired him a teaching assistant title. Teaching assistants are not valuable, and they are basically filled by students from the older generation. They have made up a lot in the past few days, and there is no shortage of dangerous ones. In fact, Wei Se's skills were not inferior to those of the teachers, but the teachers were too formal and had to be from the Prosecution Department. Wei Se was not interested in joining, so he only became a teaching assistant. At least you can use the testing equipment in the training camp.
Wei Se could disguise himself at will. Originally, he wanted to disguise himself as a middle-aged man and use his seniority to help Tang Zhao overcome the situation, but Tang Zhao thought it was better to forget it. The teaching assistants are all young teenagers, less than twenty years old. If you are a teaching assistant in your thirties or forties, you will not feel calm, but will look like a waste.
Therefore, the dangerous color can also be disguised as a young man in his twenties. Originally, at this age, it was okay for him to show his true appearance to others, but Wei Se was not used to showing his appearance to strangers, so he disguised himself slightly and turned into an ordinary-looking young man.
Tang Zhao and the two arrived at the training camp at noon.
The training camp is located on the bank of the river. It occupies a very large area. There is a circle of dense trees outside that can block the view, making it difficult to peek into it from the outside.
However, Tang Zhao could see that there was no talisman used to cover it. I think so, this is near Zhongtian Mansion, the headquarters of the District Inspectorate. The training camp is right under the nose of Marquis Gao Yuan. How safe it is. The defense is mainly to prevent stray people and there is no need to build a big fortress. If there is really a formidable enemy, do you still expect the training camp to sit on the ground and defend it?
Follow a path that only you know and turn into the woods, and come to an iron gate. Tang Zhao rang the bell at the door as agreed.
After a while, a petite woman and a young man came out to greet her.
The woman seemed to be in her mid-twenties, with curved eyebrows and phoenix eyes, a quiet demeanor and a bookish air. She must be Xing Yujian. And another boy...
"Ah, you are..." The young man didn't wait for Tang Zhao to speak, but he made a surprised sound first.
Tang Zhao smiled, but he didn't expect to meet an acquaintance as soon as he came up.
