Following the sound, what came into view was a woman in her twenties, with white clothes and black hair, a face as cold as ice, and came out holding a frost sword: "Master, let me teach this wild boy a lesson for you!"
Su Ye glanced at her casually: "You?"
He held the Wind Sweeping Sword very nonchalantly: "Anyone can do it. Come."
The woman felt that she had been slighted, and her face became colder.
Then, there was a fierce battle in the forest, with trees broken and sand and rocks flying.
Yan Ting watched the battle deeply and saw that the two men were fighting back and forth. He couldn't help but secretly thought: In the past, I visited the house a lot to play games, and I encountered a lot of half-hearted monks who deceived others. I didn't expect that this seasoned apprentice had some ability.
However, the casual cultivators in the mountains and fields are at the beginning level of Qi Condensation, and they only have some abilities.
Su Ye slashed away the sword light in an instant, forcing the woman to retreat. Then a sword flower passed by, finally ending the fight. A small amount of sweat broke out on his forehead, he put away his sword and said with a smile: "Not bad, Taoist Wei Zhen's disciples are truly extraordinary in strength. It's a pity that your sword is not fast enough."
There was no expression on the old Taoist's face, but the two Taoist boys on the left and right saw the woman's eyes full of dissatisfaction and hurriedly coaxed and persuaded: "Sister, don't listen to him!"
"That's right, senior sister, practicing swordsmanship is difficult enough. Your swordsmanship is all based on your own creation. It's unparalleled in the world!"
Su Ye nodded in coordination with them, but thought in his heart: "The world" is not limited to deep valleys. The sword moves I used just now were also created by myself. If I had used the foil sword technique, wouldn't I have won a few rounds earlier?
The woman lowered her eyes and said calmly: "If you lose, you are defeated." She bowed to Su Ye again: "I have benefited a lot from today's battle. May I ask the young master's name?"
"Ye...Ye Yang." Su Ye casually made up a name to evade it, then turned to look at the Taoist Weizhen: "Senior, we have won. According to the rules, does the magic weapon have to..." After that, he stretched out his hand. Come on, he hooked his fingers together and gestured.
Taoist Weizhen coughed lightly and said, "Brother, I have learned from my own secrets. Why don't you let me do a hexagram for you two to offset this little magic weapon?"
I'm sorry we won, but this old man wants to default on his debt!
Su Ye turned back and looked at Yan Tingshen. Yan Tingshen immediately understood and stepped forward: "Old senior, people say that 'the secrets of heaven cannot be leaked.' If you reveal the secrets of heaven to us, will it lead to disaster? My friends and I don't care much about destiny, but you still As promised, just give us the magic weapon."
Taoist Wei Zhen closed his eyes at this time, and his long gray eyebrows slowly floated under the breeze of the forest. He muttered something in his mouth, and started to calculate the formula with his hands. The more he pinched his brows, the tighter he frowned, and the more he pinched his face, the stiffer his face became. , Su Ye saw that he was directly calculating fortunes, and called out: "Old Taoist, what are you doing?"
He suddenly opened his eyes and exclaimed in shock: "This trip is risky! Young swordsman Ye, if you get the rare items, there may be a bloody disaster!"
Monk Su Ye was confused: "What? What kind of strange object?"
But the old Taoist shut up: "It's good for you two to hear it. Since we are from a wealthy family that protects the world, we shouldn't go back on our word like this. Yue'er, go get the master's 'twin stones'."
The woman named Yue'er responded: "Yes."
Su Ye and Yan Tingshen's expressions changed greatly. Unexpectedly, the old Taoist just casually calculated their identities. Yan Tingshen said in his heart: The rare thing that can be called a rare thing now is the Cang Yu Sword?
When he wanted to ask more questions, he raised his head and looked at each other for a moment with Taoist Weizhen. The Taoist was staring at him with an extremely complicated expression. He was suddenly afraid that he would see through him and turned his head without saying a word.
After a while, Yue'er walked out of Qianyun Cave with a cup in her hand. The old Taoist took the cup from her hand and took out what was contained, which was just two round stones.
Su Ye folded his hands and said: "Hey, Taoist, you..." He glanced at the pair of ordinary stones, with a bit of anger: "Although I am not old, the magic weapon is After a lot, you are clearly just two pieces of broken stone with no spiritual energy at all."
After saying that, he spread his hands and sighed: "I didn't expect that the majestic Qianyun Cave Master could be such a stingy person. He clearly lost the contract and didn't even want to take out a decent magic weapon. Instead, he used this pebble to bluff people."
"Brother Ye!" Yan Ting stopped him and asked, "I dare to ask, what is so valuable about these 'twin stones'?"
The old Taoist was ridiculed by Su Ye, but he was not angry. He twirled his white beard and said, "Brother, don't worry. There are no two identical things in this world. Every flower, grass, and leaf has its own uniqueness." , even the objects in the mirror are opposite shapes, not real. But the strange stone in my hand is the only one in the world that is completely identical, so I call them 'twin stones'."
Yan Tingshen took the twin stones and observed them carefully. He saw that the patterns on the rounded stones that were half a finger long were exactly the same. He stroked them with his knuckles and weighed them. As the old Taoist said, the size and weight were exactly the same.
"It is indeed a strange object, but how can it be called a magic weapon?" Su Ye took one from Yan Tingshen's hand, held it in his hand and played with it, and suddenly thought: "The twin stones resemble each other. If I destroy one of them, the other will not be destroyed." Has it become something unique in the world?”
"I have also thought about this matter. However, since it is a creation of heaven, such a rare treasure should be carefully treasured and naturally should not be destroyed. Today, I have a destiny with you two. How about using this thing as a gift to the two of you as a magic weapon?"
Su Ye clenched the stone in his hand: "Although this thing is wonderful, it is of no great use. I still..."
The stone in Yan Tingshen's palm felt slightly warm for no apparent reason. It was higher than the temperature in his palm. He was confused and looked at Su Ye, as if he had some understanding. He then said, "In that case, I would like to thank you, Taoist senior."
Su Ye: "Ah?"
"As long as you two are satisfied, Yue'er, see you off."
"Yes, master."
Taoist Weizhen waved his sleeves and turned around, slowly walking back to the cave surrounded by Taoist boys. Yue'er stretched out one hand and said to Yan and Su: "This way, please. Take your leave."
"No, what..." Su Ye was pulled away by Yan Tingshen who had taken back his sword. The two of them walked a long way away. As he walked, he looked back at the cave in the mountain, puzzled: "Brother Yan, what are you doing? What's more? Although I didn't go there for the magic weapon, wouldn't it be a profit if I could get a magic weapon? Why do you want this broken stone?"
When Yan Ting turned around to look, he saw that the Qianyun Cave was no longer there. The trees were lush and the deep valley was quiet. He replied: "There should be some connection between these stones. Just now you held that one tightly, and I felt the temperature from this stone." .”
"Transferring temperature? What's the use of this? It's not very useful." Su Ye threw the pebbles in his hand into the air, and an idea suddenly came to his mind, "I understand, if it really has this purpose, we can use it Is this characteristic used to send some messages? For example, if you and I each wear one close to our body, if we encounter any unexpected situation on the way and we are separated, if the stone is cold, does it mean that the person is cold? "
The "bloody disaster" that the old Taoist warned just now was still in his ears, and the corners of Yan Tingshen's mouth twitched: "You are so good, don't say such things."
"What's the use of that?" Su Ye rubbed the stone in his hand: "I don't understand."
Pretending to hold the stone in his hand, Yan Ting said deeply: "I'm not sure, I just find it interesting. Not only are the appearance and weight of a pair of stones the same, they even have the same sense of warmth, which is really surprising. But when it comes to 'mutual warmth', it is a natural phenomenon. Contradictory speculations.”
Su Ye raised his eyebrows and continued to listen to him.
"You just finished the competition, and the temperature in your hand was higher than mine, so the stones in my hand heated up. If they are really the same stones from the inside out, why isn't the coolness on your end leaning toward me? Or are they? In fact, there are priorities and priorities?"
Su Ye thought about it and said, "It's interesting."
"Right." Yan Ting smiled deeply: "If one is ice and the other is fire, they are at the two extremes of cold and heat. How can they maintain 'consistent' characteristics? Are they between cold and hot, or are they more inclined to one? He added: "It is indeed a rare thing worth collecting, so I asked for it directly from the old Taoist."
Su Ye made a fire trick and said, "Since you are also confused, why not give it a try."
"Okay." Yan Ting nodded deeply, released his true energy to control the object, held up the twin stones that Su Ye had spread out in his hand, and hung them above the flames. Almost at the same time, the stone in his hand felt hot.
"Water calls." After reciting the Five Elements Water Jue, a ball of water surged out of his palm to wrap the stones. The water flow made a gurgling sound and was evaporated by the high temperature. However, there was no obvious change in the stones on Su Ye's end. Yan Ting felt a little disappointed when he saw this. : "It seems that the sense of warmth is not two-way. There really is nothing exactly the same in the world."
When he finished speaking, the sparks summoned by Su Ye trembled obviously twice, shrunk slightly, and then returned to their original flame shape, as if in response to Yan Tingshen's premature misjudgment.
"It seems... consistent?" Su Ye observed the two stones that were in water and fire. There was no change in the surface. However, he could detect that the temperatures of the two stones were almost the same with his Qi perception, and they were between water and fire.
The two of them stopped their technique, and Yan Tingshen thought for a moment: "Replace the stones and try again."
After exchanging stones, something changed as Yan Tingshen expected. No matter how he tried, the stone he originally took would always be at the same temperature as Su Ye's stone first, and then tend to the median value.
The two experimented for a long time, and finally came to the conclusion that the two stones with the same appearance had the same origin, and their temperature would always be the same as the other, but there was a difference in order.
Yan Tingshen called the stone that Su Ye took first as the "mother stone" and the one in his hand as the "child stone". The two stones warmed each other, with the mother stone first. The child stone would quickly warm up to the mother stone, and then the two phases would be even. If the mother stone and the child stone are at the same temperature, they will slow down a bit. Overall, it seems to be dominated by mother stone.
Although Su Ye thought these two stones were interesting, they were ordinary and without any lethality. In his opinion, they were not eye-catching at all. He directly threw them to Yan Tingshen to play with: "Brother Yan, take them if you like them."
Yan Tingshen accepted it without hesitation: "Thank you."
Because of the primary and secondary characteristics of twin stones, he changed its name. Instead of calling it "twin stones", he called it "child mother stone".
