...
Li Wantong's eyes also fell on the pear tree in the courtyard.
Suddenly feeling something, Li Wantong said, "Maybe she believes Ah Qi is still alive."
Guo Ji was stunned, thought for a moment, and then continued: "During the month when Li Xue was away, there was an accident in the casting of the century-old sword. Half of the sword's spirit was missing. But this was something even the chief swordsmith couldn't do. An accident that cannot be made up for. Without the spirit of the sword, it cannot be called a century-old sword."
"Is it because of Li Xue's departure?" Yu Zhi asked.
"Maybe. No one can tell why." Guo Ji said, "Yes or no, it's not that important."
Yu Zhi remained silent, he knew that for Sword Making Mountain, sword making was more important than anything else.
But for Li Xue, her Ah Qi is more important than forging swords.
"In short, ninety-nine years of hard work will be wasted the moment Li Xue comes back. All the fingers are pointed at Li Xue. Blame her for leaving, blame her for being willful!" Guo Ji sighed. Obviously, he didn't think this was right.
Xiao Jun'er opened her mouth. She also felt that it was wrong to blame Li Xue, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.
I suffered the loss of being uneducated.
At this time, Li Wantong said: "The accident of the century-old sword may be the negligence of a certain swordsmith, or it may be destiny. Regardless of Li Xue's presence or absence, irreparable accidents will occur."
"It's just that Li Xue left Zhujian Mountain, so these people naturally blamed Li Xue. After all, they all thought that there would be no mistakes. It was the same as usual. The only change was that Li Xue was not in Zhujian Mountain. .This is the ugliness of human nature.”
Guo Ji said: "Yes. It's just ugly." Li Xue walked into the Sword Cottage wet from the rain all night. What she had to face was the reproachful gaze of the swordsmith of the Sword Cottage and the incomplete sword. "
It's hard to imagine that a twenty-year-old girl would have to face difficulties from everyone when her heart was filled with despair.
The swordsmiths in Zhujian Mountain are all madmen.
He is very strict with swords and regards making swords as everything.
Their extreme paranoia made them choose to deal with Li Xue with the most vicious faces and eyes at that time.
"Did she die after that? Killed by those swordsmiths? Or what?" Yu Zhi asked.
Guo Ji choked up, and suddenly the autumn wind blew gently, and a sword roar sounded.
"She used her life to make up for the missing parts of the sword!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several people were shocked and confused.
What does it mean?
"Feeding the sword with one's body?" Yu Zhi spat out a few words.
Guo Ji responded: "Yes. Use your body to feed the sword. Li Xue carved the spiritual rune on the palm of his hand and threw himself into the furnace."
"You forced her to death." Yu Zhi said with a cold expression.
Guo Ji didn't know when a piece of pear blossom appeared in his hand. He placed it carefully in his hand for fear of breaking it.
"Maybe. Counting the days, she has been dead for more than a hundred years."
"More than a hundred years ago..." Xiao Jun'er exclaimed, "Is there really a ghost here?"
Xiao Jun'er was not afraid of Yu Zhi, but she was extremely afraid of this illusory ghost.
"There is a ghost." Yu Zhi said calmly, "The next story is not difficult to guess."
Yu Zhi once again activated the sword house token, and the sound of the sword's chant echoed in the pear blossom house.
Yu Zhi continued to tell the next story.
"Li Xue felt sorry for her master and Sword Making Mountain, so she was willing to sacrifice her life to forge the sword, which made up for the missing spirit in the sword. But the sword also carries Li Xue's obsession - Li Xue's obsession with Ah Qi."
"In Li Xue's heart, Ah Qi is not dead, but she can't find Ah Qi. She can only pin her obsession on the sword."
"Who could have known that this obsession would eventually become an obstacle to the birth of a century-old sword. There are inner demons in practice, and the same goes for swords. The spirit in the sword is Li Xue's soul and Li Xue's obsession."
"This obsession caused this century-old sword to end in the last year, the ninety-ninth year."
"That's why Master Guo said that Li Xue has never forged a sword in his life."
"Because, Li Xue's only sword, the ninety-nine-year sword, is in this pear blossom building."
"She is waiting for Ah Qi."
A sword made a hundred years ago was not forged after all.
Li Xue succeeds, and Li Xue fails.
Time is also destiny!
This sword stopped at the end of ninety-nine years.
What Yu Zhi said was exactly the same, it was all that Li Xue had after using his body to feed the sword.
Guo Ji opened his mouth and was speechless for a moment. This was the first time he told outsiders this.
Speaking of Li Xue's story, there is also the unfinished sword from more than a hundred years ago.
At that time, Guo Ji was still a child, the child following Li Xue.
Guo Ji witnessed the talented girl falling into the sword-making furnace with determination and regret.
And that story stopped in the long river of time and was ruthlessly covered up.
Today, Guo Ji didn't know what happened to him. When he saw Yu Zhi and the others walking into Lihua Xiaozhu, he suddenly wanted to talk about what happened back then.
This must have been held in for a long time.
"If you want to find a sword, you'd better look elsewhere."
"For more than a hundred years, swordsmiths of all generations have tried their best to forge the sword in Lihua Xiaozhu for the last year. But no one can succeed, and no one can even take it out of Lihua Xiaozhu."
"This sword...can't be held."
Hearing what Guo Ji said, Xiao Jun'er first wanted to retreat.
Even if the sword with obsession is held in the hand, it will not be smooth.
Yu Zhi thought for a while and had no intention of leaving.
"I want to try."
Guo Ji thought Yu Zhi didn't understand and said: "There is Li Xue's obsession in the sword. Even if he becomes the sword master, he will not be able to follow the sword master's wishes in the future."
Yu Zhi's eyes were firm and he said: "The ninety-nine-year-old sword is only one step away from being the ultimate sword in the world. I think there is no better sword than this in the sword-making mountain except for the century-old sword."
Guo Ji added: "If it weren't for Li Xue's obsession, you are right."
Yu Zhi smiled faintly, with some sympathy in his eyes.
From Li Xue's diary, it is not difficult to know how much she misses Ah Qi. To this day, she still wants an answer that means she will see her body before she dies.
The so-called obsession is to want Ah Qi's ending.
"Because of guilt, Li Xue used her body to feed the sword to complete the incomplete sword spirit. Because of her longing for Ah Qi, her obsession trapped her in the Lihua Villa for more than a hundred years. If there was reincarnation in the world, she would have become A lonely ghost."
"Infatuation should not be blamed. If I can take her away, I will go to the East China Sea for a trip."
After Yu Zhi finished speaking, the sound of the sword stopped.
The wind blows in the pear forest, rolling up the thousand-leaf leaves and falling into the pear blossom building.
Everyone felt that the temperature of the air had dropped a few points, and the bleak autumn wind chilled people's hearts.
The yellow leaves piled up into a figure, walking towards Yu Zhi step by step in the eyes of everyone.
"Li Xue..." Guo Ji couldn't help but speak.
This is what Li Xue looked like when he was alive, similar in appearance and spirit...every move is like Li Xue.
I saw a figure walking in front of Yu Zhi and looking at Yu Zhi.
"Ah Qi, is that you?" Li Xue asked.
Yu Zhi said seriously: "I am not Ah Qi."
"Where is Ah Qi? Where is he? Where is he?"
"Ah Qi, he is dead. He saved many people and drove away the pirates in the East China Sea with the sword skills you have seen. He is a true swordsman."
"No, Ah Qi is not dead. I want to find him, and I will definitely find him! He is not dead!"
Li Xue's emotions fluctuated, and Huang Ye's condensed figure also began to fluctuate, and it would collapse at any time.
Everyone looked at this magical scene.
Li Xue's obsession condensed her body and came to Yu Zhi. But what will she do next?
The terrifying murderous intention just now made Xiao Jun'er afraid of the future. She held the Linglong Tower tightly in her hands to protect herself.
Guo Ji only had nostalgia in his eyes.
He had seen this scene before, eighty or seventy years ago, when he first came to Lihua Xiaozhu after Li Xue died.
He had seen Li Xue before him.
The sword roar sounded again, and sword light surged in the pear blossom forest. The bare branches swayed, and fallen leaves floated throughout the pear blossom forest, as if a storm was sweeping here, destroying everything.
For more than a hundred years, Li Xue's obsession and the ninety-nine-year-old sword have been waiting here for Ah Qi's return.
But during his lifetime, Li Xue might have already acquiesced that Ah Qi had died in the East China Sea.
Obsession makes her hold on to the memories of the past.
Until the years pass, these are just her memories.
No one knows how terrifying the ninety-nine-year-old sword will be.
Yesterday's Hundred-Year Sword Breaking the Sky caused many sword cultivators to suffer losses. Thinking about it, the sword will not be much worse after ninety-nine years.
Guo Ji is here, so there is no need to worry about safety. But Yu Zhi's purpose is to conquer this ninety-nine-year-old sword.
A sword with obsession is not necessarily a bad thing, after all, the story in it is touching.
At this time, Li Wantong's voice sounded.
At some point, Li Wantong was sitting at the desk, holding a writing brush, and opened the last blank page of Li Xue's diary, writing while making a sound.
"In the thirteenth year of Jingtai, pirates were rampant on the coast of the East China Sea, and the coastal state capitals were deeply affected. Nanzhou swordsman rushed to the East China Sea to fight for it."
"On April 13, the sky and the earth trembled, the wind and clouds moved, the angry sea surged and smashed against the rocks, and the majestic giant ship broke through the waves and rode the wind. In the wind and waves, the two armies faced each other, the warship heaved, and thousands of swords stood on the warship. The green edge in my hand shines with cold light, I have a righteous heart and am not afraid of death."
"On that day, the East China Sea was leveled in a battle, and thousands of swords protected the world."
"The giant ship was destroyed, the souls of the dead returned, and the Nanzhou sword cultivator left no name."
"The storm will calm down, the sky will be clear, and we will leave our loyalty to illuminate history!"
"A great chivalrous person serves the country and the people. He cultivates Ah Qi with the sword and proves his heart with the sword."
"Please don't miss me!"
Li Wantong's voice came out, the sword light subsided, and the countless fallen leaves fell away again.
Li Xue stepped forward and looked at the delicate handwriting on the paper. The battle that day appeared in her eyes, and the scene of Ah Qi killing pirates at sea appeared.
Buzz!
The sword roar sounded again, but it was not as murderous as before.
"Sword Cultivator Ah Qi." Li Xue read softly.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
"Ah Qi, you're dead. How could you be so stupid? Ah Qi..."
Li Wantong wrote, and the pen tip landed on the page again.
"Twenty years after the apocalypse, the time is ten months, and the order belongs to the Three Autumn Periods. Li Xueyi has been thinking of Ah for seven hundred years. One hundred years are like yesterday, and one thought leads to a hundred lovesicknesses."
"Now I wish you to enter reincarnation, find the one you love in the next life, and spend the rest of your life under the pear tree."
Buzz!
Li Xue's figure disintegrated, turning into a long wind and carrying fallen leaves back to the pear forest.
The next moment, the sword from heaven came, and a delicate and elegant sword fell in front of Li Wantong.
Li Wantong stood there with a faint smile on his lips.
"Yuzhi, she said she wanted to watch another pear blossom rain!"
