Listen to Liu Qinghe's question.
Lu Xiaoer just stood there in silence. After a long time, he said softly: "Do you know what I have learned?"
Liu Qinghe said calmly: "Of course I know, this is the best sword in the world."
Lu Xiaoer was silent for a long time, and finally put the Xiwu Sword in his hand silently into the scabbard, then turned around and walked towards Luofeng Canyon.
The maple leaves in August are not yet red. At first glance, they look like some lychees, with green and red colors, hanging on the maple trees scattered up and down the canyon.
Liu Qinghe followed Lu Xiaoer's footsteps and slowly crossed the canyon.
When he saw the sword marks on the ground, the Lord of Heavenly Hell showed some rather doubtful expressions.
After all, some things are not difficult for Heaven to know, but some are not.
Such a self-entertaining canyon fallen leaf sword test is probably only known to a few people from the Tianya Sword Sect.
"What's this?"
Lu Xiaoer turned around and saw the big ape-like man looking at the sword marks on the ground covered with fallen leaves with great interest.
Lu Xiaoer lowered his head, thought for a while, walked over, walked to the place where Nandao inserted the Parrot Island, pulled out the Xiwu Sword, and inserted it into the sword hole.
The sword wind suddenly rose in the world, but it was a pity that the young man's realm was slightly lower, and the fallen leaves did not fly as expected. It is also possible that Le Chaotian, who designed such a thing, was no longer there, so the sword marks were inevitably deviated due to wind and rain.
But it's probably not a big problem.
The young boy looked up at the sky and summoned two swords.
One was kept in his hand, and the other was sent to Liu Qinghe.
Liu Qinghe looked at the falling leaves with a strange expression, and then looked at the sword in front of him.
The young boy stood not far away holding a sword. He looked down at the sword in his hand and said softly: "Lingnan Tianya Sword Sect, Ranger Five Realm Sword Cultivator, Lu Xiaoer..."
Liu Qinghe raised his eyebrows.
The young boy raised his head and asked seriously: "Sir, do you want to have a falling leaf sword test?"
.......
Liu Qinghe finally lost to Lu Xiaoer.
Even Lu Xiaoer himself couldn't believe such a result.
Holding the sword, he pointed it between the eyebrows of the Lord of Hell. The latter lowered the sword in his hand and said with a smile: "I lost."
Lu Xiaoer stood there for a long time, with the sword in his hand just an inch in front of Liu Qinghe's eyebrow. If he moved a little further, he might be able to penetrate into the divine sea of the Lord of Hell.
But, what reason does the young boy have to do this?
After being silent for a long time, Lu Xiaoer took back the sword in his hand, inserted it aside, walked towards the other end of the canyon, and said softly: "My lord, you have released the water of 490,000 miles in the East China Sea."
Liu Qinghe chuckled softly and said, "But this thing is really interesting. Where is this sword?"
Lu Xiaoer looked back and said, "Just stick it in the canyon. It will go back on its own in the future."
Liu Qinghe didn't say anything, stuck his sword there, and then followed the young boy's footsteps.
Lu Xiaoer pulled out the Xiwu Sword, put it into its sheath, carried it behind his back, and continued walking forward.
The miscanthus in the world is very deep.
Although no one has been walking here for more than half a year, it seems like a generation has passed.
Lu Xiaoer grew ferociously in those spring and summer, and was wading through the miscanthus grass that was almost as tall as him, as if crossing the sea.
There was the rustling sound of wind blowing grass leaves everywhere.
It's like snowing, but much messier and livelier than the sound of falling snow.
But the young boy felt very sad in his heart.
Until they walked forward and walked out of the mountain road where the grass and leaves should not be so lush, they stopped by the stream, stood on a stream rock of some height, and looked back towards the direction of Tianya Xiaobai Sword Sect.
Lu Xiaoer didn't know what he was looking at or what he hoped to see.
He just stood there silently, and Liu Qinghe just stood by the miscanthus bushes that were swaying in the mountain wind, looking at the little boy quietly.
"Lingnan will be back, Lu Xiaoer."
After a long time, the man in black robe who looked like a big ape spoke calmly.
"The seeds of Lingnan are still in the world."
Lu Xiaoer looked at Liu Qinghe in confusion and said softly: "Where are they?"
Liu Qinghe smiled slightly.
"Aren't you?"
Of course the grass seeds in the March wind are headed for death.
The grass seeds in the March wind will also fall to the ground and take root again.
At that time, people walked through the miscanthus grass that grew like a sea and stood in the swaying wind before speaking softly.
So you are here.
So I am here.
Lu Xiaoer said nothing more.
Maybe in a story after a certain snow.
Everything will come back.
Just like what Ting Feng Yin once said.
Maybe it's rice, maybe it's tares.
But they are all Lingnan things.
.....
Such a cliff and clear stream that once amazed the young man are very peaceful.
Lu Xiaoer carried his sword on his back and silently climbed up the mountain, which was considered to be the highest in Lingnan, and stopped at the edge of the cliff.
Maybe it's been a long time.
But actually that was at the end of last year.
Lu Xiaoer stood there thinking very seriously.
It must have been around the time of the Chinese New Year that I and Lu Xiaosan were a little starved, so they ran to Tianya Town, where they bought a roast chicken on credit in the name of Cao Weiying.
At that time, he and Lu Xiaosan were squatting under the snowy eaves on the roadside in Tianya Town, eating chicken legs and wings with great satisfaction under the light of those red lanterns.
Lu Xiaoer sighed suddenly, and without thinking any more, he walked along the clear stream to the edge of the cliff, where he looked at the mountain clouds and mist, then looked back at Liu Qinghe and said, "This is it."
Liu Qinghe raised his eyebrows.
The young boy turned back and looked at the thin clouds and mist on the edge of the cliff. His eyes flashed and he said softly: "This is where we went from."
Liu Qinghe still stood there, looking at Lu Xiaoer quietly.
The young boy smiled softly and said, "If you don't believe me, sir, I can leave first."
Lu Xiaoer said, and took a step forward very calmly.
The once-familiar feeling of taking one step and then stepping on another world did not appear.
Lu Xiaoer's foot came up empty, and then his whole body suddenly fell downwards.
However, this fall did not last long.
In just an instant, Lu Xiaoer was swept back by a burst of clouds and mist, pushed back to the cliff as if by the tide of the sea.
Lu Xiaoer fell down on the cliff, lowered his head and remained silent.
Liu Qinghe said softly: "You actually knew early on that you would fall if you walked out of here?"
Lu Xiaoer was silent for a while and said slowly: "Because I believe that you will not plot anything against the Tianya Sword Sect, but after all,..."
Lu Xiaoer looked up at Liu Qinghe who had walked in front of him and was looking at the edge of the cliff, and said, "I still have no reason to bring you in."
In fact, before Lu Xiaoer even walked up the cliff, he already knew that it was impossible to enter Tianya Town in such a place.
When he stood by the clear stream, standing on the stream rocks with surging miscanthus, looking around.
When he looked up, he saw that he could clearly see a cliff looming in the clouds.
Of course it shouldn't be seen there.
Lu Xiaoer and the others had tried many times before. Standing by the stream at the foot of the mountain, they could see nothing but clouds or blue sky when they looked up.
But Lu Xiaoer happened to see it.
The sadness in the young boy's heart at that time was of course not just because there was no one left in Lingnan.
Liu Qinghe was about to say something, but suddenly turned his head and looked at the canyon where the two came from.
Between the blue-red maple leaf cliffs, two rays of sword light suddenly shot out, heading towards the sky.
Liu Qinghe raised his eyebrows, and then his figure suddenly disappeared on the cliff.
Lu Xiaoer stood there silently, looking around. He didn't know where Tianya Town and Cao Weiying had gone.
Just like he didn't know where those seeds from Lingnan had gone.
Liu Qinghe left just as quickly as he came.
The Huaido Great Ape in black robes with gold patterns returned to the cliff after a moment.
What surprised the young boy was that Liu Qinghe's hand was dripping with blood, but there was an extremely deep sword wound there.
Liu Qinghe raised his hand very calmly and looked at the sword marks on his palm. There was a faint sense of sword intent flowing in it, but it was not the sword intent of such a lord of heavenly hell, but the sword intent from the Sword Lake.
Of course Lu Xiaoer is very familiar with that kind of sword intent.
He probably guessed something.
Liu Qinghe tried to intercept the two swords returning to Sword Lake, but was injured by the deep sword intent on the swords.
After looking at it for a long time, the Lord of Heavenly Hell slowly lowered his hand, laughed softly, and said: "The worst thing that can't be saved in this world..."
What is the most unbearable thing in this world?
Liu Qinghe didn't finish speaking, and Lu Xiaoer didn't know either.
Liu Qinghe walked forward and stopped at the spot where Lu Xiaoer was standing just now. He looked down at the clouds and mist on the cliffs. A stream of water flowed away, falling on the world like a thin rain.
Lu Xiaoer looked at Liu Qinghe silently. He didn't know whether the Huaido Great Ape could see anything from it.
After a long time, Liu Qinghe slowly turned around, looked at Lu Xiaoer and said, "Among the Tianya Sword Sect, is this the only door leading to Tianshang Town?"
The young boy was silent for a while and said softly: "There is one more place."
"Is this the infamous sword-throwing pool of the Tianya Sword Sect?"
Lu Xiaoer was silent for a while. Although he wanted to refute, this was indeed the truth.
In the past thousand years, the name of Shuipiao Sword Sect has naturally become quite famous.
Such a pool that looks like a brave fish is indeed infamous.
"But it's sealed there too."
Liu Qinghe said calmly: "It is better to seal it than disappear."
.....
The two returned to the Tianya Sword Sect.
This Sword Sect was in a mess due to the operations performed by Lu Xiaosi and others before they left, with upturned stones everywhere.
In fact, such behavior is probably quite cover-up.
Liu Qinghe stood in front of the sword-throwing pond, looking at the raised stone mountain.
There is a sword hole in the stone.
Liu Qinghe turned back and looked at the sword behind Lu Xiaoer.
The young boy was silent for a while, then stepped forward and pulled out the Xiwu Sword.
Unfortunately, such a sword is probably not suitable.
Compared to the sword hole, the Xiwu Sword looks a bit delicate.
Lu Xiaoer was about to send the sword in, but Liu Qinghe said softly: "Forget it."
The young boy turned back and looked at the tall man silently.
Liu Qinghe stood by the sword throwing pool and smiled softly, but he looked a little regretful.
"No need to try."
When Lu Xiaoer pulled out the sword, Liu Qinghe knew it couldn't be opened.
The Lord of Hell turned around and walked away in the direction he came from, and said softly: "Dream within a dream, Lu Xiaoer, you and I are not destined to be together."
The young boy stared blankly at Liu Qinghe's back, not knowing what it meant.
However, Lu Xiaoer still followed Liu Qinghe out.
Naturally, the stones from Tianya Sword Sect’s courtyard were dug out.
Regardless, there is still some left, like a fragmented continent, quietly spread out on the platform in the mountain.
Liu Qinghe walked there and stopped, looking at the world with his hands behind his hands.
After a long time, Liu Qinghe looked back at Lu Xiaoer and said, "Do you want to continue digging the grave in Lingnan?"
Lu Xiaoer was silent for a while and said softly: "What do you mean, sir, is Li Shi coming back?"
Liu Qinghe said calmly: "I can't stay in Lingnan forever. After a few days, I will go back to Huaidu."
Lu Xiaoer turned back to look in the direction of such a cliff and said softly: "Then I can only follow you, sir?"
Liu Qinghe chuckled lightly and said, "What are you doing with me?"
"I can neither be in Lingnan nor follow you, so how can I face such a Taoist?"
Liu Qinghe smiled slightly, looked at the young boy and said seriously: "You have a sword that can move mountains and rivers and oceans..."
Lu Xiaoer fell silent.
Liu Qinghe continued: "But Li Shi may not know."
The young boy stood in the autumn wind over the mountain for a long time and said softly: "I just know the water environment."
Liu Qinghe chuckled softly, turned back and said: "In this world, a sword that can move mountains and rivers is suitable for people with low realm. If the realm is too high, it will harm the world, but it can only Put it on the shelf."
Lu Xiaoer was silent for a while and said seriously: "But I don't know if I can pull out that sword."
Although Cao Weiying said that Lu Xiaoer had learned it at first, the young boy still didn't know how to hold it.
Even the first time this young boy saw the prototype of such a sword was in Liu Qinghe's grasp.
Liu Qinghe smiled slightly and said softly: "Has Le Chaotian told you the story of the sword in the heart?"
Lu Xiaoer was silent for a while and said softly: "I told you."
Liu Qinghe turned around and looked at Lu Xiaoer who also said softly: "Then you can pull it out."
Lu Xiaoer stood there in a daze.
Liu Qinghe turned around and walked along the fragmented Jianzong forest roads, speaking calmly.
"There is a saying that has been circulated for thousands of years, which is that it is impossible to even think about it, and it is wrong to think about it."
The man looked up at the sky above him.
"This is the story left to the world by Cong Zhongxiao, the sword sect in the world. Back then, he got the sword in blue from the demon lord. He couldn't pull it out, so he thought about pulling out the sword by himself, but the thought just started to come to him. The whole person was almost chopped to pieces by the sword."
Liu Qinghe lowered his head, looked at the broken sword sect for a long time, and said word by word: "The cultivation of the world's sword intention itself is the sword in the heart of cultivation. This is why some Taoists also use swords, but The boundary between him and sword cultivator is extremely clear."
Lu Xiaoer stood there in a daze.
That's probably why.
The reason why many sword cultivators in the world still hold onto the sword in their hands even though they can travel thousands of miles with their swords.
Even the sword in the heart cannot be without foundation.
Use the sword to nourish the sword's will, and use the sword's will to temper the sword.
Only then can we live forever.
Liu Qinghe turned his head, looked at this little Lingnan sword cultivator for a long time, and said slowly: "So there is no reason why you can't pull out that sword."
Lu Xiaoer was silent for a long time, and seemed to understand something. He said softly: "So, sir, you actually want to borrow the sword to kill people?"
Liu Qinghe raised his eyebrows, his expression seemed a bit cold, he looked at Lu Xiaoer deeply for a long time, then turned around and walked up the mountain road, and said calmly: "The world does not bully the young. Naturally, there will be people who will not let it go. The truth of a thirteen-year-old boy participating in these stories.”
The Huaido Great Ape stood on the mountain road and looked at the green mountains quietly.
"If it weren't for the Lingnan incident, and Huaidu was indeed at fault, Lu Xiaoer, just because you know how to use this sword, I would have no reason to let you live."
Liu Qinghe stood there calmly, blowing the autumn wind in the world.
“I just want to leave some seeds for Lingnan that can go on for a long time.”
The Lord of Hell may have thought of something, but he was silent for a while, and then continued: "When I was in Huaidu, someone said that the standard for evaluating the quality of a person in the world is actually very simple, that is, good people will be rewarded. .”
Liu Qinghe went down the mountain very simply.
"So of course I hope there will be good news for Lingnan, so..."
The voice of the Huaido great ape lingers in this green mountain for a long time.
"This is to tell the world that Your Majesty's world can withstand both slander and praise."
Lu Xiaoer stood there in a daze, carrying the Xiwu Sword on his back.
He really never thought that Liu Qinghe would have such a thought.
Perhaps it was just like what Liu Qinghe said to Nan Dao in the pear flower courtyard of Tianyu.
It's never that they can't be trusted.
It’s just that the world doesn’t want to believe it.
But Liu Qinghe still told the young boy many things.
Lu Xiaoer stood there silently, and after a long time, he walked towards the canyon again.
Until it stopped on the cliff in front of the building.
The little boy stood there for a long time, quietly looking at the cluster of vigorously growing peach blossoms.
He didn't know why, but he suddenly remembered the dream he had in July, when he fell into a pool of water, between sudden cold and heat.
The woman in green clothes in the dream looked at the young boy sincerely and said, "Senior Brother is a young man."
Senior brother is still young, so the hope of Lingnan lies in Lingnan.
Lu Xiaoer looked at the peach blossom for a long time before finally making sure.
Those words were not what Chu Yao said.
How could such a woman say such things to such a young boy?
So those things were naturally what Lu Xiaoer said to himself.
Lu Xiaoer turned around, walked to the edge of the cliff, took out the Xiwu Sword from behind, and put it on his knees.
I am the only torch in Lingnan.
Uncle Master.
