July, just after the slight summer heat
In the summer sky, a "middle-aged man" with a slovenly beard was lying leisurely on a deck chair in a small courtyard. At this time, a group of children were surrounding him, fighting and playing around him, and some of them tugged at the corners of his clothes. Asking Mr. Ye to hurry up and tell a story, some shook his recliner as if to shake him up, and some even pulled the beard on his face.
The middle-aged man seemed to have been awakened by the noise of the children, and yawned and said: "Okay, okay, today I will tell you the story of the Four Swords in the World...".
One of the children sniffed and said, "Forget about lying to children. Even the children on the street who have never been to a private school know what the Ten Soldiers of the World are. You are talking about the Four Swords of the World. You dare to find weird things to fool us." , I will spit on your chair so that you will have no place to sleep next time.”
The middle-aged man seemed not to have heard the child's words. He rubbed the child's head and then started to talk to himself: "The four swords in the world I talked about were before our Zhuangzi was built. It was not what it was like now seven years ago. The ten soldiers in the world."
The child who was sniffling just now seemed to be persuaded by him and squatted down in front of his chair to wait for the middle-aged man to start telling a story. The other children also sat down and squatted down to wait for the story to be told. It was like this before. As long as they successfully woke up the man, the sloppy man would start telling them about some people or things they had never heard of before, which had never appeared in their knowledge or in the streets and alleys. They should all be stories that this man fantasized about that have never happened before.
The middle-aged man continued: "That year should have been the fifth year of Shengyang. At that time, Zhujian Peak reopened its hut and announced to the world that it would find the owners of the four long swords forged by Si Xuan, the previous generation of mountain masters. The swords are named Gaojun, Four Seasons, Winter Plum, White..."
When the man was about to continue, he was suddenly interrupted by the call of the child who had just shaken his recliner: "I know this time. There are three swords that we all know. Which one has the longest name? Don't fool with a sword that no one knows. Put it in the same row as these world-famous swords, so when we go out and tell our friends that we are being laughed at, we feel embarrassed."
The middle-aged man glanced at the child, coughed to moisten his throat and continued: "Just tell me what your uncle said! If they don't believe it, just think that I didn't wake up and said nonsense... Let's continue talking. , The Four Swords of the World were not well known to many people at that time. Like the current selection of the Ten Soldiers of the World, the martial arts strength of the master is first evaluated, and then the weapon is evaluated..."
The middle-aged man kept talking to the children around him about how generous and glorious these four swords were when they appeared. Naturally, most of the children listened as amusement. While talking, the middle-aged man looked from time to time in the hall of the house, where an unsheathed dagger named Chunchuangdie hung hanging.
Seven years ago, the fifth year of Shengyang
Zhujian Peak, which had been closed for more than 30 years, was re-opened. Guangfa Hero Post invited all the major Jianghu sects to go to Zhujian Peak to appreciate the swords. The finale was the last four swords forged before the house was closed, but the names of the four swords were not explained. And the old mountain master’s thoughts when forging a sword, he just wanted to give the sword to the hero.
At that time, the old martial arts sects such as Fengxue Daguanlou, Wenjianhu, and Shenxingguan, the martial arts leaders in the martial arts world, jointly celebrated the reopening of Zhujian Peak. Liu Mei, the new head of the Liu family of Fengxue Daguanlou, deservedly won the title Hanmei among the four swords. The Hanmei Sword is three feet and one inch long, with carved plum blossom petals falling on the sword like drops of blood. As the central figure in Jianghu power, Xiang Hanmei was regarded as the number one in the world at that time.
After the remaining three swords were captured by the Fengxue Grand View Tower in Hanmei, something unexpected happened. Someone sneaked into the Jianlu in the middle of the night to steal the swords. Except for the three swords, all the other long swords were destroyed. The reopening of Zhujian Peak was also destroyed by the Jianlu. Ended by destruction.
In the following months, news spread that a sword named Gaojun was obtained by Wenjian Lake, and was proved by Zhujianfeng, which was already in decline at that time, to be one of the four swords forged by the old mountain master. The other two The whereabouts of the sword are unknown.
Later, when the world talked about the famous swords in the world, it was said that Sixuan, the master of the old mountain of Sword Forging Peak, had forged four swords in total. Only two swords were passed down to the world, and the other two swords were laughed at and said that they were stolen before they even left the house. The sword in the Lian Jian House All names have been erased.
