"Master Liu, I can't understand Zuodao's injury, but what Zuodao said always feels too sudden. Can you explain it to me?"
"Things are not simple." Liu Xu said these words with a serious expression.
"Huh? Master Liu, what do you mean by this?" Bai Lang was naturally confused. He also knows that this matter is not simple, but why is it not simple?
Liu Xu was silent again for a long time, and then said: "Although your strength and ability are now outstanding in the sword hall, you are still in the limelight. But your qualifications are really far behind. I won't say more, let's talk about the swordsman around you. That shadow Chen Zhiyun is no weaker than you, but his qualifications are much stronger than yours.
People used to say that the successor trained by Lin Yue was Qi Xiu, and the successor trained by our Zuodao was Chen Zhiyun. It's just that Chen Zhiyun has never appeared outside or held actual positions. But with Zu Dao, what can't he understand? Therefore, it feels strange to suddenly make you the new candidate for the sword, even under the premise that the sword's injury is irreversible.
Could it be that Zuodao took a fancy to the relationship between you and the City Lord's Mansion, hoping to use this to reduce the obstacles from the City Lord's Mansion during the direct succession?
And this matter is quite a challenge for you! "
"Challenge? Mr. Liu, please elaborate." Bai Lang heard what Liu Xu said and felt that there might be some small thoughts of Tang Yan in it. And it was like an emergency, so pulling him out suddenly was an emergency choice.
As for whether Tang Yan was digging a hole to plot something, neither Bailang nor Liu Xu had any speculation in this regard. I didn't think about it at all. Because their knowledge was not enough for them to understand the true extent of Tang Yan's injury, and what methods could be used to deal with it. I don’t know if I will die or if there is still a chance of improvement, etc.
The lack of cognition also prevents Bailang and Liu Xu from finding the real problem even if they feel that things are "not simple".
So I heard Liu Xu say: "If it is really because of your relationship with the City Lord's Mansion that I force you to be promoted to the position of sword, then you may have to face two thorny problems in the future. One is the estrangement between you and Chen Zhiyun , there may even be conflicts. The second is that the old-school swordsman Hong Dao is dissatisfied with you."
The words failed to explain the real problem of "not being simple", but it allowed Bailang to implant in his mind the question of "what will he have to face if he really takes the position of a sword in the future?" In other words, once you have a general outline, you can add it yourself.
And after Liu Xu's "analysis", Bai Lang gradually calmed down. After all, it still comes from his own strength and the premise that Tang Yan's injury is irreversible.
His own strength is easy to say, and Bailang has also had two serious life-and-death battles with Qi Masters. I know what I'm doing and I'm confident.
As for Tang Yan's injury? This is not a lie no matter how you look at it. Because it's not necessary.
So the conclusion is: Tang Yan is about to die, and a huge earthquake in the sword hall is imminent.
Liu Xu even asked Bai Lang to start counting the connections in his hands after he went back. Although Bailang has been involved in cultivating these things for a short time, because of the common interests, this kind of involvement can be cultivated much faster than a simple friendship. It must also be utilized.
And Liu Xu also needs to use his connections to help Bailang. The old school of Red Knife needs an explanation as to what they think and how to win them over. And we need to start contacting you as soon as possible.
There is quite a sense that time is running out and I need to hurry up.
To be honest, Bailang was already feeling a little uneasy at this point. Even though he can be regarded as a person from two lifetimes, when such a huge piece of pie hits his head, it is inevitable that he is stepping on cotton, and his whole person is in a state of excitement and excitement from the inside out.
After coming out of Liu Xu's place, Bailang walked lightly and thought about going back to the dock to check the situation. As soon as he came out, he was stopped by a guard with a sword.
"Master Bai, Zuodao has ordered that there is a reward in the Dharma Hall, so you should go there immediately. When you get there, Master Chen Zhiyun will be waiting for you there, and Master Chen will explain all the matters to you in detail."
reward? Bai Lang realized what he should have said was the reward for killing Qi Xiu this time. But I didn't expect it would be so fast, and I would have to go to the Dharma Teaching Hall to get it.
Is it related to exercises?
So Bailang changed his route and turned to the Dharma Teaching Hall next to the entrance of the main hall. He had been here before when he was a kid. Last time, with the help of the attribute panel, I successfully integrated a sword technique and a Kung Fu technique to obtain two green-letter techniques. Later, after he became a red sword, he had another chance to go to the Chuanfa Hall to obtain the inheritance, but he was unable to come because of injuries and emergencies.
Now that he's here this time, Bai Lang is planning to wait until he meets Chen Zhiyun before he can also take the reward for his upgrade to the Red Sword. Maybe there will be another fusion harvest this time? He was still looking forward to it.
Bailang saw Chen Zhiyun as soon as he reached the entrance of the Chuanfa Hall.
"Master Chen!"
"Master Bai, come with me."
Bailang, who was always taciturn, was not surprised. This was even the first time he spoke to the other party. The two of them changed their waist cards, then entered the back of the Chuanfa Hall, passed the courtyard where the red knife was kept, and arrived at a small room in the innermost room. After entering the room, they entered a secret passage in the room and reached a depth of more than ten feet underground. In a stone room.
There are three levels along the way, and even a secret door. If it weren't for Chen Zhiyun leading the way, Bailang would never have gotten here. It is even difficult to open the machine. It's even harder to break in.
After arriving at the place and lighting the lamp, Chen Zhiyun said: "The sword master has an order, and Bai Lang is the next choice for the sword master. In addition, the situation in the sword hall is complicated now, so we should first strengthen our strength to adapt to the method of the sword master. Therefore, the method "Refining" is passed on "Soul Forged Soul" is also considered a reward, but also an expectation.
Master Bai, put your waist badge in the groove of the jade box on the stone table over there to open the jade box. The technique inside is what you want to read this time. You can check it yourself. I'll wait for you outside the door. Please keep this in mind. Because the contents in the box cannot be taken away. After you note it down, press the raised stone ball next to the door to open the door and come out. "
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Mr. Chen."
The two of them called each other their own. Bailang didn't feel anything was wrong. After all, everything can be reasonably explained based on the premise that he is about to succeed the sword.
After saying that, Chen Zhiyun retreated outside the stone chamber and closed the stone door.
Bailang looked around the stone house. It was about one foot in diameter and very small. There was a stone table in the middle, and on the table was a large jade box that was more than a foot square. Apart from that, there was nothing else in the room.
Bailang opened the jade box as he was told and found a roll of animal skin lying inside. Just looking at the surface, it felt like an ancient object.
When Bailang took it in his hand, a line popped up in the properties panel.
