It is March 11th in the calendar year 103 of Dafeng.
A big event happened in Nanyi City.
Cong Ren, who had been sleeping on the bridge in the Jianzong Garden all day long, disappeared into Nanyi City.
After people experienced a brief panic, they calmed down.
Because the door of Jianzong Garden opened.
The young man Hulu, who had been sitting in the concierge playing cards all day long, sat down at the door. In his lap, there was a sword.
Square inch.
This world-famous sword, once one of Mojianya's two cliff-suppressing swords, remained in Cong Ren's hands after experiencing many turmoils.
So the world felt relieved again.
For a sword sect master who is famous for his karma sword, what if his sword disappeared in the sword sect garden?
I don’t know how many people in the entire spiritual world will be panicked.
But fortunately the sword is still there.
People no longer pay attention to where Cong Ren went.
And for the South Island.
Something big happened in his life too.
Yesterday, I happily went to see Qiu Xi'er, but was told that she would be returning to Mojian Cliff in a few days.
Things have turned around for the Human Sword Sect, but not for Nandao.
Nan Dao got up in disgust, finished cleaning with a sigh, and then went to the library.
Chen He, who was reading a biographical novel, was very happy when he saw Nan Dao's arrival. He threw the book away and took Nan Dao to the listening terrace on the third floor.
Several jars of wine were placed beside the table, a plate of peanuts was also placed on the table, and there was an almost empty jar of wine under the table.
Nan Dao remembers that the last time he came here, there was still tea here.
The two of them drank wine for a long time while leaning on the guardrail by the wind listening platform.
Then he saw Yun Huzhi limping up with a book in his arms. He opened the door and saw the two people drinking, turned around and left.
Nan Dao was holding the jar and was drinking. When he saw Yunhu leaving without knowing it, he put down the jar and said with a strange expression: "Sir, it seems that you are avoiding me?"
Yun Hu stopped awkwardly, turned around, and said a little unnaturally: "No, no, I just remembered that I took the wrong book and planned to go down and change it."
Nan Dao looked at him suspiciously and said, "Did you lie before?"
Yun Huzhi sighed and said: "The night before last..." Before he could finish his words, he heard Nan Dao say: "Did you drink that jug of wine secretly?"
Yun Hu hesitated for a while, thinking that drinking secretly was better than peeping, so he nodded and said guiltily: "Yes."
Chen He listened at a loss and asked, "What are you two talking about?"
"Nothing, nothing." Yunhu smiled awkwardly, limped over with the book in his arms, and sat down next to the two of them.
Nan Dao looked at Yun Hu and didn't know. He shook his head while drinking and said, "Sir, you can't do this. I think Dean Qingxiang must have taken a lot of blame for you."
Yunhu didn't know: "..."
"What did Mr. Yunhu do?" Chen He asked from the side.
Before Nan Dao could speak, Yun Hu said sincerely and guiltily, "I secretly drank a bottle of wine that his father sent him."
Chen He looked at the two of them and felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't explain it, so he didn't dwell on the matter any longer. He looked north of Nanyi City while drinking and said mysteriously: "You guys had something wrong last night?" Didn’t you see anything strange?”
Both of them shook their heads.
Chen He said: "I didn't sleep last night, so I wanted to see if Mr. Yunhu was asleep, and wanted to come out with you to chat, but I just went out and walked to the listening platform."
Chen He stood up, walked to the center of the guardrail of the stage, and continued: "I saw a sword."
"What sword, where is it?" Nan Dao looked at Chen He and asked curiously.
Chen He raised his hand and pointed to the north direction of Nanyi City and said: "Right there, it seems to be the direction of the sword sect in the world. There is another person walking in the sky. He walked very fast and suddenly appeared next to the sword. , after holding the sword, he suddenly disappeared in that area, and then after a while, many people came from the north and stood there, I don’t know what they were doing.”
As Chen He spoke, he scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "I don't know how to say those things."
Yunhu said from the side: "That is the great cultivator of the human world. He should be Cong Yan, the leader of the human sword sect."
Chen He still knew the name of the Human Sword Sect Cong Ren. He said, "What about those people who came after?"
Yun Huzi said: "I don't know either, maybe it's Lingnan Sword Sect or some practitioners from Lingbei."
"What happens next?" Nan Dao interjected and asked.
"After they watched for a while, they left together. I was worried that something would happen at night, so I went back to the room and covered my head to sleep."
Yunhu said with a smile: "Xuanshuyuan is still very safe. Even if the dean is not here, there are many gentlemen in Qingniuyuan who are practitioners, so you can sleep peacefully."
Chen He sighed and said, "I don't know how to practice. If they really start fighting near here, I won't be able to run away."
Yun Hu said sincerely: "It doesn't matter, usually we can't fight, and if there is a fight, the small one doesn't have to run away, but the big one can't run away, so it's better to have a good sleep in peace of mind."
Nan Dao and Chen He were both speechless for a while.
"If you are scared, you can go to Qingniu Yuan and listen. Maybe you can step into the path of spiritual practice?"
Chen He heard what Yun Hu didn't know, but he lay down on the chair, waved his hands and said, "Forget it, I am Xianyun Yehe. I am too tired from practicing, so I might as well lie down and see how comfortable the world is."
Yun Hu didn't know what to say and didn't say anything else. He looked at Nan Dao, who had been silent all the time, and asked curiously: "What are you thinking about?"
Nan Dao took a sip of wine, pondered for a while, and said, "I'm curious where Master Congren went and what they came to see."
Yun Huzi smiled and said: "I don't know where Master Congren has gone, but I may know what the people who come after him are looking at."
"What are you looking at?"
Yun Huzi said softly: "See if Cong Ren's sword is still there."
Nan Dao asked in confusion: "Why do you want to see his sword?"
"Because it is the Karma Sword. If the sword is not in the Sword Sect, then it will be sent to the past and future by Cong Ren. If the sword enters the Karma, someone will die. So those practitioners are very scared, but there is no chaos in the world today. That means his sword is still in Nanyi City."
Although Nan Dao heard Qiu Xi'er briefly talk about the Karma Sword, he never expected it to look like this.
Chen He listened on the side and suddenly realized: "It turns out that this is the Karma Sword, one of the three swords in the world."
Yun Huzi said softly: "The battle that made the Cause and Effect Sword famous was fifty years ago. At that time, there was civil strife in Qingtian Dao in the north. Bu Suanzi came to Nanyi City to ask for the sword. I don't know what the price was, but he exchanged it for Cong Renyi sword. Killed the former temple master of Qingtian Dao with one sword when he first entered the avenue. From now on, the world will never dare to see those three feet square again."
Nan Dao asked in confusion: "Isn't the divination skill missing?"
Unexpectedly, Yunhu hadn't spoken yet, so Chen He rushed to speak: "I saw it written in a biographical novel, saying that fifty years ago, the leader of the Taoist sect, Qingtian Dao, was in civil strife. The previous generation of temple masters died violently, and then Qingtian Dao fell apart and became The current Qingtian Dao is missing one door: the view of mountains and rivers."
Chen He looked at the two of them with a proud face, as if he was wondering why he didn't praise me yet.
Yun Huzi smiled and said, "That's true."
Chen He rewarded himself with a sip of wine.
The three of them chatted for a long time, and Yunhu was about to leave without knowing it. Nandao remembered the story of the Five Thousand Words of the Blue Ox, so he also left the library.
Chen He stopped Nan Dao on the listening platform, threw a money bag down, and asked Nan Dao to buy some wine when he was discharged from the hospital.
Walking slowly along the bamboo forest path with Yun Huzhi, Nan Dao said, "I want to ask you a question, sir."
Yun Huzi glanced at Nan Dao, remained silent for a while, and said, "What's the problem?"
Nan Dao sighed and said, "I ate the five thousand words of Qing Niu."
Yun Huzi smiled softly and said, "If it can fill your stomach, it can be considered a use."
Nan Dao stopped, stood by the road, and said softly: "I swallowed it into the divine sea."
Yunhu stopped laughing, looked at Nandao and asked strangely: "How did you eat it?"
Nan Dao shook his head and said, "I don't know... Sir, aren't you angry?"
Yunhu said calmly: "The great road is nothing more than ordinary people. They have a place to go. It means they have found their rightful place. Why should I be angry?"
Nan Dao held an umbrella and saluted Yun Huzhi and said, "Thank you sir."
Yunhu continued, "But I'm curious, why did it enter your divine sea... What's in your divine sea?"
Nan Dao fell silent.
His divine sea includes peach blossoms, sword intent, and the God of Grains that was split into countless parts.
But he knew that these were things that could not be easily shown to others.
Yunhu didn't know and didn't ask any questions. He lamely walked along the path with his book in his arms.
"In the sea of gods of the world, everything is actually different. Some people see the bright moon, and some see the sea. When they see the bright moon, they step on the moonlight, and when they see the sea, they cross the boat. There is a principle of repeated changes in the Tao, let alone practice?"
Yunhu's unknown voice echoed in the bamboo forest.
"So when you enter the Tao, you must first see the mountain, know what kind of mountain your own mountain is, and know what kind of path your own path is, then you can continue to practice."
Nan Dao stood there in a daze, watching Yun Hu slowly walk into the small bamboo garden.
"The Five Thousand Words of the Blue Ox were originally meant to be given to you. Once you get it, be content with it."
Nan Dao saluted Yunhu again from afar.
"Thank you sir for your teaching."
In this conversation in the bamboo forest, Nan Dao said nothing, and Yunhu didn't ask anything.
But many things have already been explained clearly.
The way you ask is the way of others.
What you cultivate is your own.
You are already on the mountain, so why bother seeing other people's scenery.
After Nan Dao saluted, he turned and left.
After returning to the concierge and sitting down, Nan Dao looked at his own divine sea for a long time.
After truly entering the Mountain Viewing Realm on the bridge yesterday, the vitality in the Divine Sea has become much stronger. If the vitality when first entering the Tao could only be faintly visible, then now it is like a trickle, gurgling.
The Peach Blossom Sword Intention is still quiet in the center of the divine sea. The five thousand words of the green cow floating above are slowly absorbing the vitality. Half of the first green word has revealed its golden color.
Nan Dao tried to open it, but still couldn't.
What does this book that brought Dao to the world mean?
Nan Dao retracted his thoughts, raised his hand, and there was no vortex on his fingertips.
But there is wind around me, and after seeing the mountain, there is a strong wind.
It's Tao Feng.
Nan Dao tried to lift his legs and took a step, but his figure became much lighter.
Nan Dao calmed the wind around him, pulled out his sword, put it on his knees, and then began to look for the sword intent seed.
If seeing mountains in three days is just normal, then the weirdest thing is that he still hasn't found the idea of sword intention.
The South Island is immersed in the divine sea.
He fell under the sword intent that shattered the Valley God.
Watched in silence for a long time.
Where does this sword intent come from?
Nan Dao had seen Qiu Xi'er's sword intent, which was as lonely and awe-inspiring as a high cliff. His eyes stung when he saw it.
I have also seen Cong Ren's sword intent, which is lazy and carefree, like a young master sitting on the long river in March, sitting on the bow of a boat and watching the barefoot girl wash under a certain peach tree.
There was also the young man next to Cong Ren that he saw when he entered Taoism that day. He didn't seem to be practicing swordsmanship, but he always had a chilling air about him.
However, the sword intention in his divine sea is different.
Except for the moment when the bright moon was shattered at the beginning, the sharp edge was revealed, and everything after that was as silent as an ancient spring.
Nan Dao stood silently in the divine sea, looking up at the sword intention.
