"Ah Si, sit down, why are you talking? In terms of seniority, Mr. Zhuge is still your elder, and you must not insult the family of the Literary Sage." Qingyun Sword Zong Ningzhijie scolded.
Swordmaniac Ah Si's reaction was a bit extreme, but it was reasonable. Zhuge Zhengye showed a wry smile, and he knew that Ah Si would definitely have this reaction.
"Mr. Zhuge, I believe you are not innocent. There must be some basis for this. Senior brother was speaking out of control for a while. I hope you don't take it to heart." At this time, Jiang Xiaobai suddenly said.
At this moment, his expression was extremely respectful, and his words had lost all the frivolousness in the past. Li Furong was slightly surprised by Jiang Xiaobai being so serious.
While talking, Jiang Xiaobai tugged at the corner of his senior brother's clothes.
The sword-crazy Ah Si is such a good person. When he first heard that something happened to his mentor, he was just quick to say something. He immediately said: "I hope Mr. Zhuge doesn't take it to heart. Ah Si is rude. I apologize to you sir."
Zhuge Zhengye waved his hands and said: "This is a serious matter. This is one of the reasons why I came to look for your two brothers in a hurry. Your master came to look for me before he went to Qingning, and I have a special relationship with him." It was just a few days ago that my contact with him was suddenly cut off by something weird. I did not hesitate to use my own experience to make predictions again. I only deduced that he seemed to have entered a dangerous place, and there were signs of fighting with others. Nothing else can be deduced."
Zhuge Zhengye paused and spoke again: "Your master once said that if anything happens to him, let me come to find your senior brother. He also said that you and your senior brother also have a special way of contacting you."
Swordmaniac Asi suddenly took a long breath, and his expression became solemn. Indeed, he and his senior brother did have a special connection. No one knew about this. Since Zhuge Zhengye could tell this secret, it proved that, Something might really have happened to the master.
Ah Si suddenly looked at Jiang Xiaobai, only to find that Jiang Xiaobai was also looking at him. The brothers looked at each other and remained silent in a tacit understanding.
"Then what else can Master say to you?" Swordman Asi suddenly asked.
"He once said that if one day I can't contact him, I will ask you to go to Luoxia Mountain in the Qingning world together, and he will leave traces." Zhuge Zhengye said.
Ah Si was silent for a while, then turned to look at Jiang Xiaobai and said, "Junior brother, come out for a moment."
…
The clouds are low in the dusk, and the snow is dancing in the wind.
The heavy snowfall in Cangzhou City still shows no sign of stopping.
Jiang Xiaobai and Ah Si stood at the door, looking at the vast snow together. After a long time, Ah Si said: "Junior brother, actually, you are very lazy."
Forehead?
Jiang Xiaobai was stunned, senior brother, you have been thinking about it for a long time and then you just said this?
Ah Si also smiled slightly and continued: "Actually, I am also lazy, senior brother is even lazy, and master is even more lazy. In fact, what you did in Zhaoxia Academy, I know, senior brother also knows, and master also knows, We are too lazy to talk about it, and we are too lazy to take care of it.”
Ah Si was silent for a moment again, with some inexplicable sadness in his tone, and said: "But, some things have to be done by someone, you know?"
Jiang Xiaobai nodded. Why didn't he know?
When he first came to this world, his senior sister killed him in the chaos. He saw with his own eyes the devastation of life and the displacement of people in the war.
He knew very well that the final outcome of the war would inevitably make the people more miserable.
Therefore, he offered strategies to pacify the six kingdoms, cut down the vassals, and wrote books on strengthening the army. However, when the war subsided, he did not enter the temple to enjoy the glory and wealth, but chose to go back to Chaoxia Academy to lie down.
"Actually, you do some things better than us." A trace of self-mockery appeared on Ah Si's face, and he said: "All Confucians in the world respect the lineage of literary sages, but the master has only three direct disciples. The senior brother is too lazy to join the world, so he chose Born, go to hell the Gun Immortal King Susu..."
Spear Immortal Wang Su is the direct disciple of the Wen Sage lineage.
"But I'm also lazy, so I went into seclusion, which lasted for decades. However, living in seclusion for many years was boring. Later, I started to play in the human world. Therefore, in the lineage of the Literary Saint, you have always been yours. Senior sister is supporting her, Empress Imperial Master, one of the three great Confucian masters in the world, Fengling. His piles of titles make many people envious, but they don’t know that behind these false names are unknown responsibilities and Bitter..." Ah Si said.
Jiang Xiaobai suddenly became wary. The senior brother's emotional card was caught off guard. There must be fraud in it, so he asked cautiously: "So..."
"It's nothing. So, junior brother, can you stop talking about conspiracy theories? I know you are lazy. Your senior sister is just a fool, so don't feel bad for her. I saved this boy Bailu, but I actually covet him. Talent, but a lazy person like me is too lazy to teach my disciples, so I gave it to your senior sister, but you kid, you also gave your senior sister a disciple. What is the operation?" Ah Si glanced at Jiang Xiaobai and asked.
Nani?
Jiang Xiaobai was confused. Why didn’t I know when it happened?
"Pretend, keep pretending." Ah Si glanced sideways at Jiang Xiaobai and said, "Egret has already seen that girl. She is a good young lady, full of awe-inspiring righteousness. Now she is following your instructions, in this windy world. Read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles!"
"Chen Yu?" Jiang Xiaobai suddenly remembered that such a thing did happen that day in the river, but at that time he was just an excuse to shirk the responsibility.
"It should be noted that the lineage of Literary Saints is extremely strict in recruiting disciples, so fortunately, that girl's achievements are indeed immeasurable. I actually don't know whether you were blind at the time, or you were really wise and discerning. Your senior sister doesn't know yet. Regarding this matter, I gave her an egret and hid from her for more than ten years, so..." Ah Si said blankly.
Jiang Xiaobai's whole body trembled, and suddenly a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and he said: "Senior brother, I will follow you to Qingning World. The journey is far away and must be extremely dangerous. I will go with you. We brothers are of the same mind and we are sharp and decisive." Jin, I’m not afraid of danger.”
Ah Si didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said: "Do you think you can hide for a while or for a lifetime? I want to go to Qingning, but I won't take you with me."
"Senior brother, I'm really not afraid of danger." Jiang Xiaobai tried his best to argue.
"This is really not a dangerous thing. Junior brother, think about it, your cultivation is so poor. If you are with me, I have to take care of you. Isn't this a burden to myself? If it were you, you would have to work so hard. What are you doing?" Ah Si looked at Jiang Xiaobai with disgust and said bluntly.
It makes so much sense, and I can’t even refute it. Alas, I wasted my energy in the wrong way after all!
"So, there are some things that must be done by someone. It's the same for all the disciples of the Wen Sheng lineage. Whether you like it or not, wait until I get rid of those guys in the house. From tomorrow on, the blacksmith shop will be handed over to Tang Shi. You and Furong , follow me to a place, and I will teach you the art." After Ah Si finished speaking, he walked straight into the house regardless of Jiang Xiaobai's reaction.
Jiang Xiaobai was stunned on the spot, so you laid the groundwork for a long time and ended up waiting for me here?
…
Xuanhe six years.
The tenth day of the twelfth lunar month.
Suitable for: sleeping.
Taboo: Get up.
The heavy snow still didn't stop. Early in the morning, Jiang Xiaobai was woken up by Li Furong with force. He was beaten up in a sleepy state without realizing it.
All of a sudden sleepiness disappeared.
Half an hour later.
Jiang Xiaobai, Li Furong, Ah Si, and Ning Caisang came to a mountain.
What you see is white snow, and there is a waterfall that seems to fall from the sky. There is a wooden house built next to the waterfall. Next to the waterfall, there is a sea of bamboo.
"This is the place where I used to retreat, the wooden house. You can live here in the future. There is enough food for you to eat for a year and a half, and all the cooking utensils. I have set up a formation on this place. Ordinary people I can’t find it here.” Ah Si said.
Jiang Xiaobai looked intently at this mountain range and was a little surprised. This was simply a fairyland on earth.
A waterfall falling from the sky, a wooden house, and a sea of bamboo behind it. You can't see it on this snowy day, but if it comes to the spring season, when the bamboo sea turns green and the distant mountains show green marks, this is a natural picture. .
"I only have three days to teach you, so every day is very important. Now I will teach you the principles of swordsmanship."
Ah Si said, and several people came to the wooden house. Ning Caisang went into the house to make the bed, clean, etc.
Jiang Xiaobai and Li Furong sat side by side, and Ah Si sat opposite them.
On this day, Ah Si explained to Jiang Xiaobai and Li Furong the simplest basic sword theory, from the shallower to the deeper, and quoted from other sources. Even though Li Furong was already a Jie Jie realm swordsman, he still listened attentively.
Asking about the understanding and insights of sword cultivators in the realm is like a door. Many things that Li Furong had not understood before were instantly clear.
There are not many opportunities for the peerless sword cultivator in the Wendao Realm to personally teach and teach, which is equivalent to direct cheating.
On this day, Ah Si did not teach any sword moves, but only talked about sword theory, swordsmanship, and his own insights.
It wasn't until late at night that Ah Si finished talking about everything that needed to be said in one go. Although there was a suspicion of overruling the situation, there was no other way and there was not much time.
In the snow, when Ah Si felt that he had basically nothing left to say about his understanding of swords in his life, he looked at Li Furong and asked, "Is there anything else you don't understand?"
Li Furong pondered, but did not give an answer. Instead, she said softly: "There are many things that I can't digest, but I keep them in my heart. So tonight, I want to understand them first."
As she spoke, she walked straight to the waterfall, sat cross-legged under the waterfall, and stared at the waterfall, thoughtfully.
Ah Si simply walked over, stared at the waterfall, and said, "You might as well regard that waterfall as a sword intent falling from the sky, or maybe you can understand some of the essence!"
Li Furong nodded, sometimes watching the waterfall and meditating on the sword, sometimes closing her eyes and thinking, listening to the sound of the waterfall.
Ah Si nodded happily, then turned to ask Jiang Xiaobai, "Xiaobai, of all the sword principles and swordsmanship that I talked about today, how much have you understood?"
Jiang Xiaobai's face turned bitter, and he said with some lack of confidence: "Brother, please swear first that you won't beat me to death, and then I will say it!"
Ah Si was stunned. I don't think about food or tea. From morning to late at night, my feelings have been playing the piano to others?
Ah Si has a bad look!
