After Ye Yu returned to the room, he studied all night without feeling tired at all. This state frightened Huangfu Xuan and the others.
Although he guessed that Ye Yu might have met someone, he didn't expect that he would be so stimulated. He wanted to ask him to have breakfast, but was afraid of disturbing him. In the end, he chose not to disturb him. If he was still like this when he came back at noon, he was trying to stop him. It's not too late, we can't let him go on like this.
After putting the food on the table, the three of them left. Ye Yu also stopped thinking and said to himself: "I won't lose this time. I have seen through your chess moves."
Then he turned around and walked outside. When he walked out of the room, he smelled the aroma of the food. Only then did he realize that he had not eaten. Not wanting to waste time, he put the food into the space ring and prepared to eat it on the mountain.
Traveling all the way, we soon reached the top of the mountain again. This time we did not practice the sword drawing technique first, but headed towards the thatched house.
Arriving in front of the thatched house, Ye Yu shouted into the house: "I'm here again, please enlighten me."
As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the thatched house opened, and the old man came out. After looking at Ye Yu lightly, he sat at the chessboard table and played a piece.
Seeing the old man's move, Ye Yu quickly ran over and started playing chess with the old man.
The game was over in a short time, leaving only Ye Yu with a look of disbelief on his face.
He really didn't believe that he would lose. He felt that he had figured out the old man's chess strategy that night, but he only had the upper hand at the beginning. After a few moves, the old man's chess strategy changed drastically, becoming several times more fierce than yesterday. Only then did he realize that yesterday the old man was just playing around and only showed the tip of the iceberg of his strength. How much of his own strength was revealed today? Ye Yu didn't know.
Today's game lasted a long time, from morning until night, and it didn't end until the old man got up.
This time, Ye Yu bowed to the old man's back, thanked him very much, and left the breakfast he had put away in the morning with the old man before leaving.
Even though it was breakfast, it was extremely rich, and because of the space ring, it was still steaming hot, and the heat preservation effect was very good.
After Ye Yu left, the old man walked out of the thatched house, came to the chessboard table, looked at the food, and said: "Boys can be taught, but their talents are terrible. In just one day, they have caught up with ordinary people for decades. , If I hadn’t found out yesterday that he really couldn’t play chess, who would have believed that he was a beginner when he saw him today?”
After speaking, the old man actually ate the food left by Ye Yu.
Ye Yu came again the next day. He also played the same day and didn't win a game, but he forced the old man to show some of his strength again. When he left, he bowed again and left the food.
A month passed like this. During this period, Ye Yu would play chess with the old man every day, but instead of playing chess all day, it would take half a day, and the rest of the time he would practice sword-drawing skills.
The old man is no longer as cold to Ye Yu as he was at the beginning. He occasionally talks to Ye Yu. After knowing that Ye Yu is a student of the martial arts academy, he scolded him: "Although you have good talent at a young age, if you don't study hard in the academy, you will run out every day. What is it like to practice on your own? Do you think you don’t need a mentor to teach you?”
Seeing the old man's mood swings in front of him for the first time, Ye Yu was still very happy. At least he said this because he cared about himself.
Facing the old man's scolding, Ye Yu smiled and explained to the old man that he had no mentor. The old man didn't believe it at first, but he didn't interrupt. After hearing what Ye Yu said, the old man fell silent and the atmosphere instantly became tense.
The atmosphere was relieved by the old man's sigh.
The old man said in a low mood: "That's it for today. I'm a little tired. You'll come over tomorrow."
After saying that, he chased Ye Yu away. After the other party left, the old man looked at the sky and said: "Such a good seedling has no mentor to teach him. This is the loss of the martial arts academy and the loss of the coalition forces! What do these people think? In order to build a good relationship with major families and not kill geniuses, wouldn't they investigate this young man? A sword cultivator received such treatment just because he had no background and offended some people. If word spread, there would be others Do you dare to come to the academy? What a bunch of idiots."
After speaking, the old man did not return to the thatched house as usual, but walked down the mountain. With one step, the trees and the earth seemed to retreat. The old man appeared at the foot of the mountain with one step, and disappeared within two steps.
If Ye Yu saw this scene, he would find that it was similar to the galaxy retreat felt in the stone tablet in the forbidden area.
The morning sun shone on the earth, and Ye Yu came to the thatched house on the top of the mountain. This time, the old man was already sitting on the stone bench, as if waiting for him.
In the past, Ye Yu first practiced the sword-drawing technique and then asked the old man to come out to play chess. This time, it was the old man waiting for him outside, which surprised him.
After seeing Ye Yu, the old man said: "Your chess skills are not weak anymore. The rest needs to be learned by you in real war. This cannot be taught. However, I see that you practice martial arts every day, but there is no big difference." Progress, I still have some experience in cultivation. Since no one teaches you, I can give you some pointers. I wonder what you think?"
After the old man finished speaking, he looked at Ye Yu calmly, not knowing how many emotions were hidden under this calmness.
At first, he thought he had heard wrongly. Ye Yuling stayed in place for a long time. It was not until the old man asked again that he realized what he was saying and nodded with excitement.
After getting along with each other for so many days, Ye Yu had long discovered that the old man was extraordinary. Although he could not feel the energy fluctuations of the old man, in terms of his ability to play chess, the old man was not an ordinary person. It should be as he guessed. This was An extremely strong person.
With guidance from such a strong person, could Ye Yu not be excited? This is an opportunity that others can only dream of.
Seeing Ye Yu nodding in agreement, the old man said happily: "Although we have not known each other for a long time, I can see that you are very talented and not bad in nature. The most rare thing is that you have an innocent heart. I hope you can keep it." .”
After listening to the old man's words, Ye Yu saluted and said: "Junior Ye Yu, although I have known my senior for some time, I don't know his name. Please let me know."
After the words fell, Ye Yu kept his saluting posture and waited without getting up.
The old man did not move, but there was an energy emanating from his body. He held up Ye Yu and said, "The name is just a code name. Since I have decided to give you guidance, I have no intention of hiding it. My name is Sun Muqing. Since you are determined to know, remember it well!"
After knowing Sun Muqing's name, he prepared to salute again, but found that he could not move at all. This hand completely confirmed Ye Yu's guess that the other party was a strong one, but he had a combat power comparable to the peak of a grandmaster. In front of him, he could not even move. No, I don't dare to guess the other party's realm. Although I don't know why I want to live in seclusion here, for myself, these are not bad things.
He waved his hand and put away the power that restrained Ye Yu, and said, "Don't worry, mother-in-law, hurry up and practice. Let me see how far you have mastered the sword-drawing technique."
Ye Yu was not surprised when the martial arts name was called and started practicing in front of the old man.
When Ye Yu was practicing, Sun Muqing said: "It's nothing but magic. Although this sword drawing technique has no method of operation, your talent shouldn't be cultivated like this. I can only say that you put all your thoughts into it." In trying to figure out how to operate, the essence is ignored.”
"Whether it's martial arts, sword skills, or magic, the most important thing is not the method of operation or the magic formula. These are all external. Even if you know the method of operation, you don't know the charm and attack power inside. No matter how high it is, it will be full of flaws and can be easily cracked. Only by understanding the essence can you get stronger power. Even if you don't have a method of operation and cannot display its full power, it can improve your understanding of the way of the sword."
