"We haven't seen each other for several months. The advancement and retreat of the sword's will is secondary. The most puzzling thing is, why do you yell when you swing the sword?
I asked you to learn more from the disciples of Jifeng. Did you go to the foot of the mountain to find a warrior to compete with, or did you fight with the wild beast in the mountain? "Liangchen asked back.
Hearing this, Lin Tao's face turned even redder, and sweat poured down his purple face.
After a long time, he answered hesitantly:
"Report...Sword Master, I follow your old instructions...I often spar with my brothers and sisters. They told me a secret, saying that when you fight, you have a shocking roar that pierces the sky and scares the enemy's heart to look up to the sky. I accept it. I was taught by the Sword Master, and I also thought... like this..."
Because Liangchen did not agree to accept him as his disciple, he has always been called the Sword Master.
"this..."
When Liangchen heard the sound, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
This boy is not very smart, but he has good perseverance, and he can feel the desire to pursue the sword, so he has strict requirements and high hopes for him.
Only then did he order more disciples from several peaks to compete. Unexpectedly, although he had improved his sword skills, he had learned such a mess, which made Liangchen a little angry.
"I don't know which disciple I listened to, but he actually wanted to imitate me. Didn't I just say that I was like a beast?"
Hearing the reason, I was immediately speechless, and the trace of displeasure disappeared, and I even felt like laughing.
He slowly took a sip of the spiritual tea and then spoke softly:
"You can practice your sword with peace of mind. As for the thundering technique, I will teach it to you when you pass the test."
"Junior understands!" Lin Tao nodded immediately.
"Go and refute the impurities and do it again." Liangchen ordered.
"Hold Yuan Yi, the sword's heart is clear!"
With a sword spell, the sword light once again shone on the cliffside, accompanied by the roar of the waterfall, like a ball of beating glass lamps, shooting out streaks of brilliant sword light.
Seeing this scene, the stern look in Liangchen's eyes finally gradually faded away, he raised the corner of his mouth and picked up the porcelain bowl again.
Listen to the waterfall, watch the sword, taste tea...
Good times and a good mood.
When Xiao Shitou on the side saw the Sword Master's expression, he also laughed happily.
After Lin Tao finished his martial arts performance, he asked some questions about his mental training, and he was able to answer all questions fluently.
Liangchen nodded and ordered: "Pour tea."
Xiao Shitou immediately poured tea for Lin Tao.
Seeing Lingcha, Lin Tao understood that he had finally passed the test that he took once every few months. He breathed a long sigh of relief, but the sweat on his back had already soaked through his clothes.
"Thank you Sword Master, thank you Little Stone." Lin Tao drank the tea in one gulp and stood with his hands tied.
"Plum blossoms fall on snow, like five shapes turning into one. What is snow?" Liangchen suddenly turned around and looked at Xiao Shitou and asked.
"Snow is chaos, connecting the universe and nothing." Xiao Shitou was shocked. He knew that his test had come. He thought for a while and answered immediately.
"The center of the seven-star cloth, what is the blessing of the jackal?" Liangchen asked again.
"Tianji." Xiao Shitou replied.
"Plum blossoms reflect the Big Dipper, why are there two left?" Liangchen asked again.
"..." Xiao Shitou showed faint sweat on his forehead, but he couldn't answer for a long time.
"Bring out the newly refined puppet beast and let me take a look." Liangchen ordered after waiting for half a cup of tea and still didn't hear the answer.
"This is the disciple's newly refined flying snake." Hearing this, Xiao Shitou immediately took out a small silver snake as long as a thumb from his arms.
The little snake is lifelike and has a pair of small wings.
"Although this beast is at the early stage of Qi training, it is very fast and can fly. Its attack power is no less than that of the middle stage of Qi training. Not bad, not bad." Liangchen nodded.
Seeing that he liked it, Liangchen taught him the art of refining the puppet beast. After several years of practice, he really got into it.
"Little Shitou wants to learn the second-level puppet beast technique, but I don't know if it's possible..."
Xiao Shitou requested.
Now that he can skillfully refine the puppet beast in the early stage of Qi training, he naturally wants to improve further.
I asked Liangchen to be taught secret techniques several times before, but Liangchen didn't agree. Today, seeing that Liangchen was in a good mood, he tried again.
When Liangchen heard the sound, there was no expression on his face, but he threw the little snake on the rattan table and said softly:
"Among the three, you have the least qualifications, but because of the Li family's hard work, I will take good care of you."
"The two of them need ten years of hard work and pass a rigorous test before they can become apprentices. And you only need to advance to foundation building to join my sect."
"But you have been in the mountain for nearly six years, and you have been asking for all the miraculous elixirs in the mountain. Now you have just advanced to the late stage of Qi training."
"I've thought about it and it's all my fault. Because I taught you the art of puppet beasts, which distracted you and caused your state to stagnate, so I decided not to teach you the art of puppetry from today on.
In addition, my requirements for you are too generous, so starting from today, it will also last for ten years. If you cannot successfully build the foundation, you can go down the mountain. "Liangchen whispered softly, but in Little Shitou's ears, it was like being struck by lightning.
"Sword Master. I was wrong! Xiao Shitou is willing to serve you all his life, don't drive me away!" Xiao Shitou's face turned pale and he immediately knelt down to apologize.
"The level of realm is the way to survive, but the art of puppetry is the way to love. You can't have both love and life. If you give up love, you can still survive."
"Life is worry-free, and hobbies last forever, do you understand?" Liangchen's eloquent words seemed to be the truth in their ears.
"Little Shitou understands." Little Shitou nodded heavily.
Next to him, Lin Tao also nodded slightly in agreement, as if he was thoughtful.
"Get up." Liangchen waved his hand, and the small stone was lifted up by an invisible force. Seeing his frightened look, Liangchen couldn't bear it, so he changed the subject and asked:
"Your name has the character "Lei", do you know what it means?"
"Father never said anything..." Xiao Shitou didn't know why and shook his head anxiously.
"Lei uses stones as the base and piles them upward to form a solid wall, a broad building, and a tall building, which means upward progress.
However, if you want to move forward, you must be down-to-earth, otherwise the foundation will not be strong, the height will not be strong, and it will not be strong for a long time, but it will be in danger for a long time. "
"Be an aboveboard person and be down-to-earth in your work. Your father has very high expectations for you!" Liangchen said solemnly.
"I know I was wrong!" The lingering sound in Xiao Shitou's ears trembled, but his heart was anxious. Thinking about ten years' time, he wished he could go back to practice now.
"Mom is back. You go and accompany her. Let Meier come over and let me see how she is practicing recently." Liangchen sensed that Han Meier had helped her mother to the pavilion and ordered.
