The dojo battle between Bai Ze and Wang Han has finally come to an end.
Even though from the beginning to the end, Bai Ze only used one sword intention to end the battle between the second and third sword realms that many people were excited about when they mentioned it, most of the fellow spectators still felt satisfied.
Isn’t the sword formation fierce against the blast?
To hell with the battle between two and three, it’s enough to enjoy it. It’s enough to see, hear, and gain something. As for whether the sword spirit realm is strong or the sword spirit realm is high, it’s none of my business?
This is the sentiment of most of my colleagues.
Some felt regretful, saying that it would have been better if Bai Ze had used Sword Intent. In this regard, the two factions are divided. One side believes that "Uncle Bai doesn't use sword power, which has already explained everything" - sword power is stronger than sword power.
The other side held a conspiracy theory, believing that if Bai Ze had used Sword Intent, Wang Han would have lost long ago.
However, in all the subsequent arguments, the two parties involved did not express anything. We still have the same fights, we still have the same drinks, we still have the same discussions.
As autumn deepened, Tao Hongjing finally took action and taught Jian Xi the Qi refining method, officially introducing the little girl to the path of spiritual practice.
From then on, there was one more thing Bai Ze needed to do on a daily basis, teaching Jian Xi how to practice Qi.
The discussion between Bai Ze and Wang Han deeply stimulated Fang Sheng. So much so that Qin Xiang came to Shanshui Residence to complain to Bai Ze, saying that her junior brother was so addicted to sword practice that he was going crazy.
Bai Ze had no choice but to go to Duinsui Peak with a shy face, dragging Fang Sheng and Wang Han with him, as well as several fellow students he had become familiar with recently, and ran to Tianxiang Tower to pour wine for Senior Sister Qin to apologize.
Qin Xiang was also generous. Not only did he bring several sisters from the Hongchen Dao, but he also abducted a few senior sisters from the Jade Girl Dao. After eating and drinking, those fellow disciples were so beautiful that Bai Ze almost couldn't come out of the Tianxiang Tower. He was detained and had to pay for drinks by washing dishes.
On this day, Bai Ze got up early and came back from sword practice. Xiaoman had been waiting in the courtyard of Shanshuiju for a long time. When he saw Bai Ze, he hurriedly said: "Sir, the fourth senior brother came just now and asked you to come back and visit the master. "
"Okay." Bai Ze was surprised, but still planned to go there first.
"Then Xiaoman waits for the young master to come back for dinner."
"No need, you and Xi'er eat first."
Bai Ze waved his hand and headed straight to the garden where Tao Hongjing was.
When you have reached the fourth level of cultivation, there is no big need for food. When many monks reach this realm, they gradually move toward fasting. They usually only take pills and refine their qi to maintain the turnover of energy in the body.
Recently, Bai Ze intended to hone his ability to control the air and fly, so he did not call out Chu Yi.
A few days ago, Bai Ze wanted to try to send four psychic flying swords to Yuanting to be nursed. But even if the mountain ghost fell into a deep sleep, he would instinctively protect his territory and not let Chu Yi and the others enter Yuanting at all.
The phantom of the sword embryo in the sword lake in the atrium does not exclude the four flying swords. But they were cowards and refused to live in Zhongting Zi Mansion, so Bai Ze had no choice but to give up.
In his spare time while studying, Bai Ze always thought that it would be great if he had a gourd for raising swords. Just like the one in the hands of Wu Shuang, a genius girl from Huoshenshan.
It's a pity that the one hanging on his waist can only hold wine.
Bieyuan is here in a blink of an eye.
When Bai Ze arrived, he found that all his brothers and sisters were here.
Even the fifth senior brother who always and Lu Hao disappeared in the mountains and fields were there.
"Master." Bai Ze arrived late and stepped forward to greet Tao Hongjing.
"Lao Qi, you're here." Tao Hongjing said with a smile, "My good disciple Sun has been practicing recently, is it going well?"
"It's pretty good." Bai Ze said with a smile, "It's all thanks to Master's guidance."
"Hahaha, you are so glib." Tao Hongjing said with a smile.
Seeing the serious looks of the Sixth Senior Sister and the others, Bai Ze couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked: "Master, I wonder what's the reason for calling us here today?"
"It's nothing." Tao Hongjing said, looking at Dahuang who was lying on the ground and taking a nap, he said calmly, "I plan to take your fifth brother down the mountain and walk around. I am also closed and exhausted, so this trip can be regarded as Relieve boredom."
Bai Ze was silent.
Even if the purpose of Tao Hongjing's trip was not stated clearly, what could Bai Ze and the others not understand?
In his early years, when Bai Ze traveled to the north with Xie Xuan, he also heard that some people suffering from mental illness might be able to awaken their sanity by taking him back to their old places.
"When does master plan to set off?" Bai Ze said.
"In the next few days," Tao Hongjing said, "Autumn is getting stronger. If it gets later, it will be difficult to walk."
The matter was thus settled.
Zhuang Yan also stayed on the mountain until the day Tao Hongjing brought Dahuang down the mountain.
That day, the old man took the yellow dog with him, waved goodbye to all the disciples, and walked down the mountain without looking back. On the other hand, Dahuang looked back frequently, his tail hanging down, very reluctant to give up.
Bai Ze and his senior brothers and sisters followed the old man from a distance all the way to the mountain gate. Lu Hao was rarely silent. He and Bai Ze stood at the gate of Zuowang Peak Mountain, watching the autumn wind blowing off the leaves. The old man's back and the yellow dog slowly disappeared from his sight.
But they didn't know that there was another figure in the shadow of the mountain col, silently seeing the old man and the yellow dog off on their journey, and then watching them go up the mountain with a sense of loss, the figure being hidden by the autumn wind.
That night, the moonlight was extremely beautiful, and everyone was drunk while sitting on the Wangfeng Peak.
When Bai Ze woke up the next day, Jian Xi had already finished her morning exercises and was studying in the yard. The sound of the young girl reading accompanied by the warm autumn sun shone into the window sill, making the young man on the bed stunned.
Maybe it's time for him to go down the mountain and travel far.
There are still many things in my heart that have no results.
When I was studying and writing in Jixia Academy, I always felt that the Master's saying, "A gentleman should read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles" was nonsense.
How difficult it is to travel thousands of miles.
It's hard to imagine that he and Xie Xuan were so hungry that they gnawed tree bark in the deep mountains and old forests, or that they were so poor that they stole the radishes grown in the fields of the mountain villagers and were chased by his family's wolf-dog for ten miles without even daring to turn around and pick up their straw sandals. .
But as he grew older, Bai Ze felt more and more that what Master said made sense.
It doesn’t matter whether it’s cultivation or practicing swordsmanship.
Staying in one place for a long time will eventually make you feel tired.
Perhaps young people do need a hometown to store the warmth deep in their hearts. But young people need to venture into this vast world, learn swordsmanship and move horses, and be high-spirited.
Bai Ze thought about it and started packing his bags.
He selected a few books on the bookshelf and put them into the ancient ring.
Third Senior Sister is no longer on the mountain. Bai Ze found Lin Xiao and Chen Ping and said goodbye one by one. The second senior brother only asked him to take care of himself when traveling far away, while the fourth senior brother was thoughtful.
Bai Ze left a letter in the room for Third Senior Sister.
"Junior brother, are you leaving too?" Pei Guoguo lowered his eyes and kicked the gravel at his feet with a muffled voice.
"Senior sister, maybe it would be good to go out for a walk." Bai Ze said, saying goodbye to the lively girl who was jumping around in the past.
Pei Guoguo only looked at Bai Ze's leaving figure, feeling disappointed.
Bai Ze went to Duan Si Peak again.
After all, he promised Xue Xing to enter the Sword Hall, but now he left without saying hello, which was indeed a bit unreasonable.
Besides, to take a step back, there are two senior brothers in Duansui Peak who get along well with each other. Before leaving, it's time to say something.
"Where are you going on this trip?" Xue Xing still had the same gloomy look, which always made people suspect that he was harboring a thousand secrets.
"I don't have any specific plans." Bai Ze didn't tell the truth and said with a smile, "Let's go south first."
“South?” That’s not a place you can go.”
"I know." Bai Ze said.
"Forget it, pay attention to safety along the way." Xue Xing said, "Since you are going south, there are some things that you can check out if you can. This map marks some of the strongholds of Zhijian Hall. If you find out the information, you can check it out. Give the scroll to them, and the people in the stronghold will naturally send the news here."
After that, Xue Xing handed Bai Ze a few scrolls.
Bai Ze didn't say much and went straight to Gu Jie.
When we returned to Zuowang Peak, it was getting late.
In the sky two miles away from Shanshuiju, Bai Ze unexpectedly saw a figure, covered in sunset glow, waiting silently.
"Xiaoman?" Bai Ze Yuqi flew to the woman's side and asked, "Why are you here?"
Xiaoman's cultivation has already entered the four realms.
This is Ye
Bai Ze knew about it when Qiu left the north.
"Is Young Master leaving now?" Xiaoman's eyes turned red, "I thought Young Master would leave without saying goodbye."
"Did you see it?" Bai Ze smiled, knowing that it was probably Xiaoman who entered his room and saw that some of the books on the bookshelf were missing, and then he realized that he was going down the mountain.
"Yes." Xiaoman nodded and looked at Bai Ze with firm eyes, "Young Master is going down the mountain, so take Xiao Man with you! When Young Master came back years ago, his heart was damaged, and Xiao Man felt very guilty. If Xiao Man had then By being by the young master's side, maybe I can share some things with him."
"In battles between rivers and lakes, you will inevitably get hurt." Bai Ze declined politely.
"But I am the young master's sword attendant, so why should I stay on the mountain all the time?" Xiaoman insisted, "If the young master does not agree, then what is the point of Xiaoman staying with the young master?"
Bai Ze's eyes were far-reaching. Perhaps it was cruel for a young woman to stay on a boring mountain.
Maybe going down the mountain would be a better choice for her.
Bai Ze was silent. Just when Xiaoman was disheartened and smiled bitterly, the young man in Taoist robes suddenly changed his words and said, "In that case, then you can come down the mountain with me."
"Really...really?" Xiaoman suddenly widened his eyes and stared at Bai Ze in disbelief, "I thought the young master wouldn't agree... That's great, so Xiaoman can share the worries for the young master. !”
After saying that, the pretty woman was overjoyed and happily threw herself into Bai Ze's arms.
Bai Ze stiffened slightly, then laughed and patted the woman's back gently.
Xiaoman hurriedly left Bai Ze's arms, realizing his arrogance just now, his ears turned red, and he mumbled at a loss. Then he had an idea and asked: "Then, what should I do with Xi'er?"
If they all left, wouldn't it be possible that Xi'er would be left alone in Shanshui Residence?
