The third day of April is Qingming Festival.
Morning, the middle hour of the morning.
The main vein of Dinghu Mountain stretches to the edge of Dinghu Lake. The mountain color is hazy, the mist is vast, the early sunshine shines through, and the clouds are steaming and glowing.
Broad stone steps stretch along the main mountain range and lead directly to a school gate tower directly south of Dinghu Lake.
Four big characters are engraved on the gate tower - Wuji Sword Sect.
On both sides of the gate tower are stone lions sitting north and south, one foot high and half a foot wide, with angry eyes and open mouths, majestic and solemn.
Inside is a school ground that can accommodate thousands of people. It is paved with bluestone slabs and has towering banyan trees planted a few feet apart on both sides.
Directly to the north is the Wuji Tower, the main hall of the Wuji Sword Sect.
The Wuji Tower is six feet high and consists of two floors of attics. The main hall is for discussion, and the two side halls on the left and right are for receiving guests.
Including the Yu Sect that has been destroyed, today is the day when the ten major sword sects meet for martial arts competition. They have traditionally held a martial arts gathering every year to discuss swords and rank by martial arts.
The Wuji Sect has been at the top of the top ten sword sects for more than 20 years, and naturally it has also been leading the top ten sword sects for more than 20 years. Update without error@
Today, the Wuji Sword Sect was extremely busy. After Xiao Jin, the sect leader, arranged for Guan Xin, the second elder of Baoyue Building, he came to the front hall of Wuji Building and began to arrange other affairs. It was extremely busy.
Xiao Jin, also known as Fanglou, also known as Xiao Heng.
Xiao Jin has a son, Xiao Feiyu, who is about thirty years old, married, and has a young son. His wife is called Liying, and she is the biological sister of Libei, the head of the Li clan.
The Xiao family and the Li family are related by marriage, and they are brothers of the top ten sword sects. Therefore, the Wuji sect and the Li sect have always been on good terms, and are a model of brother sects.
As mentioned earlier, the Wuji Sword Sect has one lake and ten floors, as well as nine elders who guard the sect.
The elders are: First Elder Xiao Yi, Second Elder Guan Xin, Third Elder Dou Liancheng, Fourth Elder Xiao Hong, Fifth Elder Xiao Qing, Sixth Elder Ye Mengnan, Seventh Elder Gao Fei, Eighth Elder Wang Xue, and Ninth Elder Xiao Wu.
There are nine elders, one is the first pavilion, the head Xiao Jin is the main tower, Guanxian Pavilion, the second elder is Baoyue Pavilion, and the other elders will not be described in detail.
Today is the period of the sect's sword meeting. Except for the second elder Guan Xin who was injured by the red sword in a sneak attack and is recuperating and detoxifying in his Baoyue Tower, the other elders are already waiting for the leader's orders in the Wuji Tower of the main hall.
The ten major sword sects will compete in martial arts. Within one day, Wuji Sword Sect has four arrangements:
One, welcoming guests, from the beginning of Chen Shi to the end of Si Shi, two hours are used to welcome the personnel of several other sword sects.
Second, luncheon, prepare a banquet at noon and invite the ten major swordsmen to have lunch.
Third, the martial arts competition. At the end of noon, the top ten sword sects will start to compete in rounds, until the rankings of the top ten sword sects are re-arranged, the top ten sword sects are re-selected, and the leader of the sword sect is determined. The leader of the sword sect has orders for the top ten sword sects. The ability of the Sword Sect can be used to arrange the affairs of other Sword Sects. It is true that the number of martial arts methods of the major sword sects varies every year.
It's not that big of a deal. The rankings of the top ten sword sects only occasionally have one or two alternations.
Fourth, the council. The heads of each sword sect gathered in the Wuji Tower meeting hall to discuss urgent matters. The first sect will then uniformly screen the opinions of each sect and arrange countermeasures.
Other matters such as friendships, sect marriages, and even intra-sect martial arts and swordsmanship exchanges are not within the scope of the previous first sect arrangements. They can be arranged by each major sword sect on their own after major events are properly arranged.
The ten major sword sects have always held sword fairs around the Qingming Festival. The first sword sect provides food and accommodation. The sword fair will be held on the Qingming day and will be adjourned after lunch the next day. If there are no major affairs in the world that require the joint efforts of all sword sects to deal with, then the major sword sects will Everyone goes back to their own homes and takes care of their own affairs.
From hour to hour, hour to hour.
Xiao Feiyu, the young master of the Wuji Sword Sect, and his mother Li Ying had already welcomed the three major sects at the gate of the main hall.
At the outer gate of Wuji Sword Sect.
Backed by a towering ancient banyan tree, there is a large coffee table and two main seats. Next to it stands a maid serving tea, and to one side stands a knowledgeable butler.
Xiao Feiyu and Li Ying sat on both sides of the table, smiling at the people coming and going.
The Zhike butler stood beside Xiao Feiyu and Li Ying with a collection tray. When a sword sect came, he shouted loudly to greet them.
The three major sword sects, the Chonghua Sect of Baodingshan ranked last, the Tianji Pavilion Tianxuan Sect ranked seventh, and the Taishan Tai Sect ranked sixth, have already been invited.
About a quarter of an hour later, a group of yellow-robed swordsmen came slowly from afar.
"Feiyu, which sect is over there? But your uncle is here?" Li Ying looked happy when she saw him. (This chapter is not finished yet!)

He stood up in comfort, loosened his hands in his sleeves, raised his right hand, pointed not far away, and asked his son Xiao Feiyu.
He has a heroic face, a goatee, and carries a three-foot long sword at his waist. He looks a lot like his mother and wears a green robe. This person is none other than Xiao Feiyu.
Xiao Feiyu heard his mother's inquiry, stood up quickly, held his mother's arm, looked carefully, and happily replied: "Mom, it's my uncle and the others who have arrived."
Li Ying is fifty years old and has always lived a leisurely life in the Wuji Sect. In addition, she is a martial arts practitioner and has a solid foundation. She does not look old. She is wearing a purple floral robe and a long silk skirt. She is elegant and graceful. At this time, she meets When my brother arrived, I couldn't help but feel relieved and stepped forward to greet him personally.
"Mom, be careful of the steps." Xiao Feiyu watched his mother eagerly descending the steps to meet his uncle, and hurriedly followed him.
Behind him, the Zhike butler shouted loudly:
"Lushan, Li Zong! Arrive!"
Then two junior sword boys came out and walked toward Li Zong and his party to guide the way.
"Li Ying has met all the elders. Please come in." Li Ying clasped her fists at the Li Zong clan members and saw them one by one. She let the little sword boy lead the way and followed them into the gate tower.
The three sword-shouting elders of Li Zong all responded with fists in their hands and did not answer. Li Bei walked in front, took his sister's hands with a smile, comforted her for a few times, and then invited her, saying, "How is my sister feeling recently?"
Li Ying also closed her hand as an invitation and asked everyone to follow her inside. Then she replied as she walked: "Sister, she practiced swordsmanship and her body is in good condition. But brother, I heard a few days ago that you were poisoned by the sword, so Feiyu When I came to Lushan, I didn’t see you, but later I heard that it was cured, which is so worrying for a girl!”
Li Bei chuckled and said, "Hey, don't mention it. Speaking of that sword, I'm getting a headache right now. Come on, let's go inside and catch up on old times."
"I've met uncle." Xiao Feiyu came closer and bowed.
Li Bai helped him up, nodded, and asked him to follow him.
Li Ying pointed to the coffee table where guests were waiting, and told her son: "Feiyu, you watch first. Mom will send your uncle in to find your father. Your uncle and I will reminisce about old times before we come out."
Xiao Feiyu respectfully replied: "Yes."
Li Zong and his party slowly entered the Wuji Tower under the personal guidance of Li Ying.
At this time, the voice of Zhike Butler came from outside the door again: "Luhu, Jinzong! Here we come!"
Xiao Feiyu went up to him again, greeted them one by one, and then sent them into the sect. . . . . .
Within the next half hour.
They arrived at the Yuling Sect in Moyun Mountain and the Cangyin Sect in Fanjing Mountain.
Yu Zong has been destroyed and will not be included in the membership. First update@
It's coming to the end of Si hour.
In the end, there was only one sword sect left, Qingyang Mountain Qiyang Sect, which had not yet arrived. .
