"Damn old guy..."
On the way down the mountain, Chu Xiu cursed secretly and greeted Chen Changsheng's elders and juniors very cordially.
Nearing the foot of the mountain and passing by the fishing lake, Chu Xiu slowed down.
Someone was fishing, but it wasn't the senior named Xie.
Chu Xiu was surprised that the person fishing at the moment was actually a white-haired old woman.
"Young man, do you like eating apples?" The white-haired old woman looked at the lake and asked casually.
Chu Xiu stopped and glanced at the bamboo basket beside the white-haired old woman. Several red apples were vaguely visible.
"The elder gave me this gift, and I dare not refuse." Chu Xiu said with a smile, knowing that this old woman must also be a disciple of a certain class.
In the bamboo basket, a red apple floated up and landed in front of Chu Xiu.
Chu Xiu took it and thanked him.
"Chu Xue is a good girl." The white-haired old woman said.
"First snow?" Chu Xiu was startled.
"I am her master." The white-haired old woman said.
Chu Xiu suddenly realized that when he met Xia Chuxue a few days ago, Xia Chuxue mentioned that there was an old man living in the back mountain who wanted to accept her as his disciple.
"I don't like dick very much." The white-haired old woman said.
"Second Brother..." Chu Xiu paused, thinking that the word "Lao Er" probably refers to his second senior brother Wang Quan, "Second Senior Brother is indeed a bit old-fashioned."
"Old-fashioned? That's not necessarily true." The white-haired old woman said, "It's true that you are more interesting than him."
Chu Xiu grinned, "I also think I'm much more interesting than him."
The white-haired old woman smiled and said: "So, if I leave the Suzaku Academy to you, it will become more interesting."
"Leave it to me?" Chu Xiu frowned slightly, "Just now, Second Senior Brother also said that Master wants to hand over Suzaku Academy to me."
"Oh? Then he is somewhat self-aware." The white-haired old woman said.
Chu Xiu said helplessly: "I want to say that I'm not interested. I don't want to stay here all my life."
"In the future, your mind will change." The white-haired old woman said, "What you have to do now is to defeat your second senior brother in the next test."
"I will take the next action together with the second senior brother." Chu Xiu said, "There is no competition between us. If Master wants to pass on the position of dean, I will vote for the second senior brother."
This is what he means.
According to his understanding, since his second senior brother Wang Quan became a disciple of the Back Mountain School, Chen Changsheng had become the hands-on shopkeeper. Second senior brother Wang Quan had always been in charge of the Suzaku Academy.
Chu Xiu had just joined Suzaku Academy and had always positioned himself as a scholar.
He really has no interest in inheriting the Suzaku Academy.
He is still very young and has not seen the whole of the nineteen states in the world, nor has he drunkenly slept on the knees of beauties and listened to oiran music at night. How could he inherit the Suzaku Academy?
Once he becomes the dean of the academy, he will definitely need to become truly sanctimonious.
That kind of life was not what he wanted.
The white-haired old woman shook her head, "You probably don't understand the situation yet."
"What's going on?" Chu Xiu asked.
"What if there were no Chen Changsheng in the nineteen states in the world." The white-haired old woman said.
Chu Xiu was startled and fell into deep thought.
If there were no Chen Changsheng in the world... the status of Zhuque Academy in the Nineteen States would probably drop by a notch.
Emperor Qian's power will probably increase slightly.
The rivers and lakes and countries that have been quiet for a long time will probably have some waves.
A truly strong person may emerge and compete to be number one in the world.
By then...the world may be in chaos.
Chu Xiu said slowly: "Without Master, and with the legacy of our predecessors, Suzaku Academy would remain as glorious as ever."
The white-haired old woman said leisurely: "By then, there may be only thirteen of you in the back mountain."
Chu Xiu was startled again, and as if he had some realization, he slowly said: "Second Senior Brother, Third Senior Brother, their strength is enough to be the best in the world, and they can protect the academy from worries.
If that senior brother returns, the world will be peaceful. "
The white-haired old woman shook her head and did not talk more about this topic. Instead, she said: "Zhonghuang Mountain is very dark at night. You need to find someone with good eyesight to go with you."
"Thank you, senior, for the tip." Chu Xiu nodded and said, already understanding what the white-haired old woman wanted to say.
Snow in early summer.
Xia Chuxue's eyes were extremely bright!
Stepping out of the thick white fog at the foot of the mountain, Chu Xiu looked at the six-foot-tall white jade statue in front of him, his thoughts a little confused for a moment.
"My cultivation speed is a bit slow."
Chu Xiu whispered and walked towards the inner courtyard.
There was a carriage parked in an elegant courtyard.
In the carriage, there was a faint whine of a rooster.
When Chu Xiu came to this courtyard, when he heard the rooster's cry, he also keenly smelled the smell of dog blood, and he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Rooster?
Black dog blood?
Is this their preparation?
Zhou Xueqi walked out of a room in front of the courtyard, her eyes brightened when she saw Chu Xiu.
"Mr. Thirteen." She called.
Xia Chuxue, the proprietress Mo Shaoyun, and Zhu Yourong also walked out of their respective rooms.
"Junior Sister Xueqi." Chu Xiu called back with a smile.
"Can you give me some tips?" Zhou Xueqi glanced at the sword hanging on Chu Xiu's waist and asked tentatively.
"good."
Chu Xiu nodded, then looked at the landlady, "I haven't had breakfast yet, please make more."
"oh."
The landlady said softly, and then she and Zhu Yourong walked toward the kitchen.
Chu Xiu glanced at Xia Chuxue and threw the red apple in his hand.
"This is?" Xia Chuxue was surprised.
"Your master should have given it to me. You can eat it." Chu Xiu said with a smile.
"Oh." Xia Chuxue said softly, her heart beating a little faster.
Chu Xiu's eyes fell on Zhou Xueqi again.
This elite female disciple of the Emei Sect is first-class in appearance and figure. Standing next to Xia Chuxue, she does not feel inferior at all, and even seems a little more elegant.
"I heard Master Jiu Taoist say that the Emei Sect's Jade Girl Sword Technique is said to be able to turn all the laws into one and break all the laws with one." Chu Xiu looked at Zhou Xueqi and smiled, "I've always wanted to ask for advice. .”
"Mr. Thirteen is ridiculous." Zhou Xueqi said modestly.
"Is it ridiculous?" Chu Xiu smiled noncommittally and sang: "The jade girl's heart is wonderful and she is in a state of trance, and the rainbow can determine the world with one move.
The body is like a frightened oriole piercing the willow, and the sword is like chasing the soul and not leaving the person.
When facing the enemy, you only need to take half a shot, and even the sword immortal will lose his soul. "
Zhou Xueqi was surprised, "Mr. Thirteen also knows Jade Girl's swordsmanship?"
Just now, what Chu Xiu sang was the sword song of Jade Girl's Sword Technique.
Chu Xiu shook his head, "I just read more books."
"That's it." Zhou Xueqi thought of Mr. Thirteen's literary talents, temporarily suppressed her surprise, and pulled out the sword from her waist with her right hand, "Please give me Mr. Thirteen's advice."
Chu Xiu also pulled out the Huangtian Sword from his waist, raised it slightly, pointed at Zhou Xueqi, "Click it till the end."
Zhou Xueqi nodded slightly, and the aura around her body suddenly changed, becoming biting and cold, like a cold moon.
Uh-huh!
They both moved at the same time.
Zhou Xueqi's figure flickered left and right, waving the sword in her hand continuously, and streaks of sword light struck forward.
Chu Xiu's body was like a drunkard's, and his sword was like the water of a waterfall, dancing forward wildly.
As the swords of the two men intertwined, their figures passed each other, and then they turned around at the same time, stabbing each other with the sword tips.
The battle continues.
Zhou Xueqi's figure was graceful and elegant, and she wielded the sword with full strength; Chu Xiu seemed to be drunk and half-awake, but every time he swung his sword, he was always able to accurately deflect Zhou Xueqi's attack.
Xia Chuxue, who was watching the battle from the sidelines, had bright eyes. She could clearly see every move of Zhou Xueqi and Chu Xiu, and even some flaws in Zhou Xueqi's sword moves.
Since joining Suzaku Academy, every night, the female master who lives in the back mountain will teach her martial arts for an hour.
"Chu Xiu is giving Xue Qi some tricks." Xia Chuxue secretly thought.
When the aroma of food came from the kitchen, the tip of the Huangtian Sword in Chu Xiu's hand touched Zhou Xueqi's throat.
"Mr. Thirteen's swordsmanship is superb, but Xue Qi is far inferior." Zhou Xueqi sighed, feeling a little disappointed.
Although I didn't think I could defeat Mr. Thirteen before, there was no fight at that time, and I still had some luck in my heart.
At this moment, any luck was completely gone.
Chu Xiu sheathed his sword and said with a smile: "If you don't mind, you can call me Brother Chu and Mr. Thirteen. It's a bit foreign."
Zhou Xueqi's eyes moved slightly, and she shouted with a smile: "Brother Chu."
Xia Chuxue on the side couldn't help but mutter: "You are five or six years older than him."
"Is that important?" Zhou Xueqi glanced at Xia Chuxue with a smile.
Xia Chuxue was speechless.
Chu Xiu smiled and said thoughtfully: "Your swordsmanship lacks some strength. When practicing, you can try to change to a more important long sword, or tie two heavy iron pieces to the sword."
"Okay, thank you, Brother Chu, for the tip." Zhou Xueqi's eyes lit up.
Chu Xiu continued, "Your footwork is also a bit stiff, and there are some acupuncture points under your feet. You can study them more."
"Acupoints under the feet?" Zhou Xueqi looked at Chu Xiu, "Brother Chu, please explain in more detail."
Chu Xiu didn't say anything, he approached Zhou Xueqi.
Zhou Xueqi was startled and couldn't help holding her breath.
Chu Xiu stretched out two fingers and placed them directly on the right side of Zhou Xueqi's neck. Strands of gentle Qi seeped into Zhou Xueqi's body, straight down along the two meridians, and finally dispersed into the seventy-two channels in her feet. In the orifice.
"In addition to some acupuncture points that everyone is familiar with, there are many small acupuncture points in our body that are not easy to detect." Chu Xiu retracted his fingers and looked at Zhou Xueqi, "Brush them away and you will feel a different world. .”
"Oh." Zhou Xueqi held her breath and said softly. She was originally so generous and generous, but now she felt a little embarrassed.
Chu Xiu was too close, and his fingers just touched her neck.
"This man..." Zhu Yourong, standing in front of the kitchen door, narrowed his eyes slightly.
"..."
The food was served, and the four women and one man had breakfast together.
At the dinner table, Zhou Xueqi looked at Chu Xiu, her red lips parted, and asked many questions about cultivation.
Chu Xiu said everything he knew and couldn't stop talking.
The atmosphere between the two of them was quite harmonious.
With the addition of the other three women, it seemed a little quiet.
After meal.
Zhou Xueqi left voluntarily.
This time, she gained a lot.
"Are you interested in accompanying me to rob tombs?" Chu Xiu looked at Xia Chuxue and invited with a smile.
"Tomb robbery?" Xia Chuxue was stunned.
The landlady and Zhu Yourong looked at each other and pursed their lips in silence.
This time they went to Emperor Wu's secret mausoleum, with Chu Xiu as the leader. The two women would support whatever decision Chu Xiu made.
Chu Xiu nodded.
"Whose tomb is being robbed?" Xia Chuxue couldn't help but ask.
"Daqian Martial Emperor."
"Imperial Mausoleum?"
Xia Chuxue's bright eyes widened.
"Do you find it exciting?"
"hehe…"
