Taoist Master Yuanyue seemed to be very satisfied with Zhang Ren's attitude. He nodded and said, "It's only ten days. It will pass quickly. It's just that these ten days as a teacher may not be easy."
Zhang Ren was puzzled and asked quickly: "Master, what do you mean by this? Are you encountering difficulties?"
Taoist Master Yuanyue glanced at Zhang Ren and said, "It's not just that you encountered difficulties. I have already thrown all the difficulties away, but as soon as you went to the back mountain to think about it, you ran to me again for this difficulty. The master is here."
Listening to what Taoist Priest Yuan Yue meant, it seemed that the difficulty had a lot to do with Zhang Ren. Zhang Ren tilted his head and thought about it but couldn't figure out what the difficulty Taoist Priest Yuan Yue said was.
He could only ask: "My disciple is so stupid that I really don't understand."
Taoist Master Yuanyue sighed, looked up at the sky, and said without hesitation: "This difficulty is not just Tongyi."
Fourth senior brother?
Although the contact time was not long and there were some misunderstandings, Zhang Ren also knew that Yin Tongyi was by no means a bad person. If he had to say a shortcoming, it was probably that he was a little thick-skinned. However, with Liu Erbing in front, Zhang Ren also knew that Yin Tongyi was not a bad person. It doesn't matter anymore.
Zhang Ren said: "Master, I don't think Fourth Senior Brother is a bad person. He has never gone down the mountain to cause trouble. How come it has become a difficulty?"
Taoist Master Yuanyue put his hand on his forehead and gently rubbed his temples, then he said: "Tongyi is indeed not a bad person, but he is an extremely nagging person. His mouth keeps talking all day long. , it is really disturbing to the people. It was better in the past few years. Tongyang and the others were still on the mountain. Tongyi would talk to them first if he had anything to say. But as Tongyang and the others started, Tongyi was full of nagging. I can only tell my teacher. I am a person who likes purity. Why did I accept such a disciple? It’s hard for me to be a teacher..."
Zhang Ren used to think that Yin Tongyi was a member of the community, and he started hooking up with him when they first met. Now that he thinks about it, it turns out that he is the one who is listening...
And today Yin Tongyi also told all the deeds of several senior brothers. The two of them had only known each other for less than two days, and they didn't say a single word that should or should not be said.
It is true that Yin Tongyi talks a lot, but in Zhang Ren's opinion, his master is still exaggerating. How can he talk too much? Can you still stay up all day long? He always has to eat, right? You have to sleep anyway, right? You always have to wash Master's smelly socks, right? So there is always a time when the world becomes quiet.
Furthermore, Zhang Ren also felt that Yin Tongyi's stories about his senior brothers were quite interesting. With Yin Tongyi's eloquence, Jinling Tea House was packed with people. Now that he could listen to it for free, Zhang Ren felt that he had taken a big advantage. Just take it as a relief.
Seeing that Zhang Ren couldn't feel his pain, Taoist Master Yuanyue shook his head helplessly, "Anyway, my master has handed you over to Tongyi. As for how Tongyi nags you, you can experience it by yourself later. Okay." Okay, let’s not talk about this anymore. We in Wudang are good at internal strength, supplemented by fists, feet and swordsmanship, so as a Wudang disciple, you must always have a sword.”
As Taoist Priest Yuan Yue spoke, he looked at Zhang Ren's right hand. Taoist Priest Yuan Yue had excellent eyesight and could clearly see some calluses between Zhang Ren's palms.
….
Taoist Priest Yuanyue asked, "Master, I see your hands are calloused. Have you ever used any weapons before?"
Zhang Ren nodded and said, "Reporting to Master, I have practiced some simple sword techniques before."
Taoist Master Yuanyue nodded, took off a sword from his back and threw it to Zhang Ren, saying, "Since you are my disciple, I don't have anything good to give you as a teacher, so I will give you this sword."
Zhang Ren pulled out the sword four or five inches, and saw that the blade of the sword did not glow with a cold light like other weapons, but felt a heat wave hitting his face.
Although the sword body is made of iron, it feels like it is not a sword, but a scorching sun.
Zhang Ren put the sword back into its sheath again, and the hot feeling just now disappeared immediately. Even though Zhang Ren was not the kind of person who studied weapons very much, he also knew that the sword in his hand was not an ordinary thing.
Anyway, it was given by his master. It would be hypocritical not to accept it. Zhang Ren hung the sword behind him like Taoist Master Yuanyue, and then said to Taoist Master Yuanyue: "Disciple, thank you Master.
Gift sword. "
In the eyes of Jianghu people, personal weapons are more valuable than gold and silver, because a good weapon can sometimes save one's life, so Jianghu people all flock to magical weapons.
But the world also has its own rules. Even if it is a gift from the master, the apprentice must pretend to be unfaithful and evade it.
However, Taoist Master Yuanyue was deeply influenced by Zhang Sanfeng and Zhang Wuji. He was not a rule-abiding person, and he scorned many so-called rules.
On the contrary, he prefers people with true temperament like Zhang Ren.
Taoist Priest Yuanyue saw that Zhang Ren did not refuse, but hung the sword directly on his body. He nodded with satisfaction and said, "This sword is called Xuanyang. It was given to me by my master Yu Sanxia when I first entered the profession. Later it was given to me by my master Yu Sanxia." Master has practiced Pure Yang Kung Fu and nourished this sword with pure Yang internal energy for thirty years. Although this sword is not a magical weapon, it is also a rare weapon in the martial arts world, and it just complements your Nine Yang Magic Kung Fu."
Zhang Ren stroked the sword on his back and asked quickly: "Master, you gave me the sword, what do you use it for?"
Taoist priest Yuanyue smiled slightly. "My master is the head of Wudang. I use the Taiyi Light Sword, Zhenwu Sword, and Green Ox Sword to suppress the sect. I can use whichever one I want. Okay, don't talk about the useless ones. You Now draw your sword and let me see your martial arts skills."
Zhang Ren nodded, and his expression became solemn. He pulled out the Xuanyang Sword, and the hot feeling hit him again. When combined with his Nine Yang Magic, the power increased to a higher level.
Zhang Ren held several sword flowers, used the sword as a knife, and chopped a few times at will. Finally, he did not forget to show off his coolness, using his internal force to activate the sword energy, and carved the character "邂" on the mountain wall.
After completing this set of actions, Zhang Ren nodded with satisfaction and put the Xuanyang Sword back into its sheath.
But when he turned around with great interest, he saw Taoist Priest Yuanyue sighing and shaking his head.
Zhang Ren was startled and asked quickly: "Master, could it be that my disciple didn't practice well?"
Taoist priest Yuanyue said: "It's not bad."
Zhang Ren felt relieved and asked, "Then why did Master shake his head and sigh?"
Taoist Priest Yuanyue said directly: "Your martial arts is simply crap..."
….
Zhang Ren grinned awkwardly, wondering if his martial arts were that bad? Yu Zhaosen is in charge of the Jinling underworld. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the emperor of Jinling City at night, but so what? Didn't he die in his own hands?
And Guo Shaoqing, the Cold Light Dual Swordsman, was said to be a master of the Songshan Sect, and he was quite senior. Didn't he also die in his own hands?
Zhang Ren didn't understand why his martial arts was so bad.
He asked Taoist Priest Yuanyue, "Master, please clarify my doubts."
Taoist priest Yuanyue naturally noticed Zhang Ren's dissatisfaction. He smiled and said, "I guess this is your first time using a sword. A sword is different from a knife. Its methods include hooking, hanging, point, picking, stabbing, teasing, etc. The main ones are chopping and stabbing, and you should carry the sword with you. You just used the sword as a knife. As a teacher, you can see that your sword skills are also extremely unskilled."
Zhang Ren frowned and said, "I can't. Although I haven't practiced any sword skills, I still practice the most basic skills of sweeping, splitting, poking, cutting, plundering, stabbing, cutting, and thrusting every day."
Taoist Master Yuanyue nodded and said: "It can be seen that you have indeed practiced and are very diligent, because your hand holding the sword is very stable, and there is no deviation in the movement. But with the addition of internal force, what you just used is He is no longer mature."
Zhang Ren didn't quite understand, so he had to say, "Master, please teach me."
Taoist Priest Yuanyue pointed to a tree not far away and said, "Poke that tree with your sword energy. Remember, use the thorn."
Zhang Ren nodded, drew out the Xuanyang Sword again, moved forward slightly, and saw a sword energy formed, heading towards the tree.
And when the sword energy touched the tree, the tree fell into pieces instantly, as if it could be carried to the kitchen to make firewood.
Zhang Ren was extremely satisfied with the power of his attack. He said to Taoist Priest Yuanyue: "Master, isn't this attack of mine quite powerful?"
Taoist Priest Yuanyue shook his head and said, "Give me the sword to use."
open
Ren respectfully handed the sword to Taoist Priest Yuanyue. Taoist Priest Yuanyue stroked his beard and said, "Just be careful, I will only do this once as a teacher."
Just as he finished speaking, he saw Taoist Priest Yuan Yue stabbing forward lightly with his sword, and a sword energy immediately flew out.
It's just that this sword energy doesn't look powerful, and it doesn't even feel as strong as one-third of Zhang Ren's sword energy just now.
Regardless of Zhang Ren's conjecture, even if Taoist Priest Yuanyue's sword energy hits a tree, it probably won't cause any damage to the tree.
Sure enough, when the sword energy hit the tree, the tree only shook and did not explode.
Zhang Ren looked at Taoist Priest Yuanyue doubtfully and asked, "Master, are you serious?"
Taoist priest Yuanyue smiled and stroked his beard, and said with a profound look: "Go over and take a closer look."
Zhang Ren cursed as he walked over. When he got closer, he realized that the sword energy that Taoist Priest Yuanyue had just fired did not cause any damage to the tree, but left a penetrating hole on the trunk. harm.
Zhang Ren turned around and Taoist Master Yuanyue threw the Xuanyang Sword over and said, "Try again."
Zhang Ren thought for a while and realized that he probably used too much internal energy just now. He only used one-third of his internal energy this time and once again directed a sword energy at the tree.
It's a pity that the sword energy this time dissipated invisible under the trembling of the big tree, without causing any damage to the big tree at all.
Zhang Ren didn't believe this evil, so he used his inner strength to stab the big tree again, but every time the sword energy fell, the big tree either exploded into several pieces or suffered some damage. However, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't penetrate the tree at all. s damage.
After trying several times, Zhang Ren's internal strength was running low and he was panting from exhaustion.
He turned around and asked Taoist Priest Yuanyue: "Master, what on earth is going on?"
Night rivers and lakes.
