After cutting off the river with his sword, Bai Ze drove his spirit boat straight to Suiyang City, the capital of the Song Dynasty, without any further stop.
"Master, congratulations!" Xiaoman smiled, "Your sword skills have improved again!"
Bai Ze smiled and said nothing.
After understanding the bright moon rising from the sea of Jian Liu and the smile of Jian Jiu Canghai, the sword intention lake in Baize Atrium became much larger. I don't know if it was his imagination, but Bai Ze felt that the shadow of the sword embryo suppressing the center of the sword lake seemed to have become a little more solid because of it.
Bai Ze told the mountain ghost about his doubts, and the sword spirit said: "It is said that the ancient Zhengdao sword cultivator can give birth to a natal sword of his own in the body. The shadow of the sword in your atrium is very powerful. If in the future you Once you have mastered the art of swordsmanship, you may be able to condense your own natal sword in your body like those ancient swordsmen."
Bai Ze was very surprised when he heard this.
But he was not overjoyed, instead he felt peaceful deep inside.
The phantom of the sword fetus is still there, and it is still far away from the birth of the natal sword that the mountain ghost said. If a sword cultivator can easily create his own natal sword within his body, then there are definitely many sword cultivators in the world who can do this.
But Bai Ze had never heard of anyone being able to give birth to a natal sword within his body.
Even people as strong as Xie Xuan and Tao Hongjing cannot do this.
Even the immortal sword Hanguang of the current swordsman Li Muzhi is not of unknown origin, but an immortal sword that is clearly stated in the "Jiuzhou Sword Manual" to have existed since ancient times.
Bai Ze thought of the Aurora Sword Seal deep in the soul sea.
Before the Aurora Sword Immortal Xu Jingting completely disappeared between heaven and earth, he told Bai Ze that he could use this sword seal to recall the Aurora Heavenly Sword and kill Ning Jing.
Speaking of which, Bai Ze can be regarded as someone who possesses an immortal sword.
The various experiences of going south made Bai Ze's state of mind calmer and calmer, and the true self reflected in the Xuanting Soul Spring became clearer. He knew in his heart that with just one opportunity, he might be able to reach the sky in one step and achieve the state of human respect and non-confusion.
And that opportunity, Bai Ze had already foreseen, was in Suiyang City.
Time is like running water, in mid-spring, there are spring rains.
Baize walked in the rain and finally arrived at Suiyang, the capital of the Song Dynasty.
The scenery of Zeguo in the south is indeed very different from that of the countries in the north.
Ever since he stepped into the territory of the Song Dynasty, Bai Ze felt that the mountains and rivers here had a gentle and graceful beauty that was different from those in the Great Zhou Dynasty. If we say Gushan Mountain, Qilian Mountain, and even Tianzhu Mountain, Huoshen Mountain, and Guangcheng Mountain, they stand tall against the sky and the earth, and the air pressure is everywhere. When you look at them, you will be filled with pride.
Then the mountains of the Song Dynasty are like a woman's delicate eyebrows, and the mountains in the distance are covered with daisy. As soon as they see it, they make people feel peaceful. They want to let go of the mountains and rivers and become a wild crane in the clouds. They work at sunrise and rest at sunset. Who cares? four Seasons.
A place of water and soil can support a person.
Perhaps the gentle and delicate landscape here is the reason why there are so many beauties in the Song Dynasty.
Baize and Xiaoman followed the local customs and put on new clothes when they traveled around the Song Dynasty.
The Song Dynasty favored Confucianism. The cuffs of men's uniforms were wider, while women's skirts were more plain and elegant, with wide sleeves. The ink embellishments or color combinations gave people a gentle and jade-like feeling.
As the capital of the Song Dynasty, Suiyang fully demonstrated the word "elegance". Entering the capital, the people coming and going there are very bookish. The pavilions are full of ancient charm, the sun is clear, and the melodious music of the piano can be heard on the long street, which is intoxicating.
Bai Ze arranged for Xiao Man to find a place to stay first, while he asked passers-by about the location of Yuelu Academy and went alone.
"Yuelu Academy?" The man looked at Bai Ze, "You are not from Suiyang City, are you?"
"Exactly." Bai Ze said, "I have learned this in the lower reaches. I have heard about the name of the academy for a long time, and I want to visit Mr. Yin of the academy to ask for advice."
This Mr. Yin was the one who took Yu Youwei to the Yunhai Immortal Gate and into the Kunlun Secret Realm. He was also an old man from Yuelu Academy, but I don't know what his reputation was in Suiyang City.
"But Mr. Yin Tao?" the man said with a solemn expression, "Mr. Yin's knowledge is profound! Just go west and see Yuelu Mountain and walk up the mountain road."
"Thank you." Bai Ze cupped his hands and thanked him, then walked straight to the west.
After a while, my sight was not blocked by the pavilions in the city, and I saw a green mountain with graceful bells and graceful bells and a unique destiny. Just looking at it from a distance, I felt that it was quite extraordinary.
Bai Ze stepped on the road, took one step, and he was already a hundred feet away.
The spring rain is continuous, and the warm wind blows the drizzle slightly, which is lovely. The young swordsman in green shirt has arrived at the foot of Yuelu Mountain.
Yuelu Mountain is located in Suiyang City and is also the defense line of the western city of the Song Dynasty. The mountain is stretched and the main peak is only more than 300 feet. Compared with Zuowang Peak, it can be said to be petite and cute.
But the mountains here seem to have a different kind of cave. Just at the foot of the mountain, Bai Ze felt that the spiritual energy here was rich, his mind was open, and he felt refreshed.
The mountain road winds and turns towards the academy on the mountain.
Bai Ze stood still in front of the mountain path and saw four big words written on the archway at the entrance of the mountain path: The Great Lord has no self.
On the mountain road leading to the academy, the fine moss marks are light green and moist in the pattering spring rain. Bai Ze climbed up the stairs. There was no one else in the long mountain road, which made it even more peaceful in the spring rain.
When we reached the end of the mountain road, the huge academy came into view. The most eye-catching thing is the archway at the head, with green and white stone carvings and the four characters "Seek for others instead of yourself".
When Bai Ze saw those four big characters, he slowly let out a breath, and felt that the saint's article was indeed thought-provoking.
The four big characters on this memorial arch come from Confucian classics. The complete sentence is "If you are unable to do something, look for others instead."
Whenever things don't go your way and you don't get what you want, you should reflect on yourself and ask yourself whether you have a clear conscience.
Bai Ze looked at the four big characters for a long time, causing the academy doorman to look sideways. He looked curiously at the man in green shirt bathing in the spring rain. After a closer look, he discovered that although Bai Ze was standing alone in the drizzle, there was nothing on his body. Half wet, as if no rain had touched her body.
The doorman was taken aback and came to Bai Ze in the rain, saying politely: "Young Master, why do you come to the academy?"
At present, all the academy disciples are studying under the teacher. This man is definitely not an academy disciple, but comes from somewhere else.
When the doorman saw Bai Ze's extraordinary bearing, he naturally did not dare to look down upon him.
"After studying so far in the lower reaches, I heard about the name of the academy, so I went up the mountain and wanted to ask Mr. Academy for advice." Bai Ze came back to his senses and said warmly.
"Is this your study tour?" The doorman looked at Bai Ze with some doubts. He saw that his hands were empty and he didn't have a suitcase on his back. It was indeed suspicious to say that he was on a study tour.
So the doorman asked one more question and said, "I don't know, which gentleman are you looking for?"
"Mr. Yin." Bai Ze said.
The doorman frowned slightly when he heard this.
There is only one gentleman named Yin in Yuelu Academy, so the doorman naturally knows who Bai Ze is talking about.
