Volume 11: The First Law Chapter 9: Qingshan Sword Technique 1
It is precisely the particularity of Daoyuan that leads to the fact that although there are Daoist methods comparable to supernatural powers in the entire Daoyuan world, the general environment is still more like a mundane world without cultivators.
In the Daoyuan Realm, there is almost no concept of spiritual practice.
The most popular thing here is martial arts, and great emphasis is placed on killing and fighting.
If you think about it for a moment, you will understand the reason. The effects of Taoist methods vary, and not all Taoist methods have offensive power.
Or it can be said that most Taoist methods are only used for auxiliary purposes.
Those who specialize in Taoism are often no match for those who are good at martial arts.
Under the rule of survival of the fittest, martial arts became popular.
There are few immortals in the Daoyuan Realm, and most of them are mortals.
The battles in the Daoyuan Realm are also based mainly on martial arts, supplemented by Taoism.
"The power of mountains and seas, could it be Taoism?" Lu Qingshan whispered.
At this point, if he has not yet connected the power of mountains and seas with Taoism, then he is truly blinded by greed.
"Just... why?"
Why is the power of mountains and seas connected with the Taoism of the Daoyuan Realm?
Did it come from this place originally, or was it some kind of coincidence?
…
"What a strange world." Lu Qingshan felt strange about this world.
However, although it was strange, as a swordsman, it was not a problem for him to integrate into this world.
If it were a cultivator who came to the Daoyuan Realm and his magic power was sealed, he would be like a featherless phoenix, no better than a chicken.
Lu Qingshan thought so in his heart and found it interesting.
If the cultivation system of Daoyuan Realm is extremely strange, then the terrain of the entire Daoyuan Realm is the same.
Just as he had seen when he first arrived at Daoyuan Realm and looked down, the entire Daoyuan Realm was made up of countless mountains.
Of course, the natives of Daoyuan Realm gave it a nice name.
"Three Thousand Mountains".
——It doesn’t sound that good. If it were in Cangqiongtian, a similar name would usually start at one hundred thousand.
The monks thought three thousand was too petty!
The only difference is that the hundred thousand of the hundred thousand mountains in the sky is just a figment, while the three thousand mountains in the Daoyuan world may really have three thousand peaks.
Lu Qingshan let out a long sigh .
In the Daoyuan Realm, there is a country on every mountain.
He is now in Yuanfeng, Yuan Kingdom, and Yuandu.
Three thousand mountains, three thousand countries.
Compared to the sky, the Daoyuan Realm is much smaller. It covers an area of no more than ten thousand miles and is roughly divided into four regions: east, west, south, and north. Rivers flow through the gaps between the mountains.
Is there an inexplicable connection between Daoyuan Realm and Cangqiongtian, or is it just a small world in Cangqiongtian?
After all, the Daoyuan Realm is too small and it is definitely impossible to be one of the Nine Heavens.
Moreover, his power of mountains and seas is recognized by the rules of the Daoyuan Realm.
However, this question is not what Lu Qingshan wants to explore now.
The most important thing for him now is to follow the clues given by Qin Yitian and track her whereabouts.
Fortunately, the Qincheng that Qin Yitian mentioned was not difficult to find.
Because in the Daoyuan Realm, although there are more than three thousand countries, there are only nine truly great powers.
Qin, Huang, Han, Zhao, Meng, Yan, Qi, Chu, and Wei.
Qincheng is the capital of the Qin State.
Unfortunately, the nine countries are all located in the northern border of Daoyuan Realm, while the Yuan Kingdom is in the southern border of Daoyuan Realm.
One is in the south and the other is in the north. Although the Daoyuan Realm is small, the distance between them is still tens of thousands of miles.
Thousands of miles away, if the magic power is still there, as the monkey says, it would be a one-tenth chance of a fall.
But the problem is that his magic power is gone.
"First of all, I need a good horse... No, two." Lu Qingshan didn't want to embark on a long journey of thousands of miles on foot.
…
The Daoyuan Realm is said to be composed of mountains, but the mountains in this realm are absolutely different from the mountains that ordinary people imagine.
The mountains here are extremely broad and flat. To Lu Qingshan, they don't look like mountains but more like suspended plains.
Therefore, there is no shortage of good horses in Daoyuan Realm.
Eight hundred miles south of Yuandu, there is a horse farm that has been passed down for two hundred and fifty years.
Lu Qingshan's eyes were sharp and shining.
Soon, Lu Qingshan, who had just arrived in Yuandu, left Yuandu and began to travel south.
Although he was in a hurry to go to Qincheng, he also understood the principle that one must sharpen his tools before doing his job well, so he did things quickly but not hastily, and in an orderly manner.
…
On the fourth day, Lu Qingshan arrived at his destination.
The Gobi grassland is dotted with prosperity, with lush green pines and cypresses, galloping horses, flying horse flags everywhere, and a word "horse" embroidered on the flag mountain.
This horse farm belongs to the Ma family, one of the three major families in the Yuan Dynasty.
The descendants of the Ma family control every area and every horse, and it is said that every blade of grass here has the surname Ma .
Lu Qingshan walked lightly and landed in front of the gate surrounded by wooden fences at the horse farm.
Immediately, the person in charge of guarding the horse farm came over.
"Who?"
"I want the best horse," Lu Qingshan said with a smile.
…
The hall is magnificent and all the decorations are extremely gorgeous .
"My name is Ma Hong. May I ask your name?" asked a middle-aged man. He had a dark face, a voice like a bell, and a neatly trimmed short beard. He was the person in charge of the horse farm.
He looked at the young man in front of him with doubt and surprise.
He was very dignified and arrogant, and he asked for the best horse right away. However, he had impressions of all the famous young men in the Yuan Kingdom, but he felt very unfamiliar with the young man in front of him.
Could he be from another country?
"Lu Qingshan."
"Mr. Lu is from Hou State?" Ma Hong tentatively mentioned the name of a neighboring country.
"My background has nothing to do with you. I'm here to buy horses. You just need to take out the best horses in your farm." Lu Qingshan said lazily.
If it were a different time or place, and a young man dared to talk to him like this, Ma Hong would definitely teach him a lesson.
But he was not stupid and could see that the young man in front of him was fearless.
As a businessman, the most important principle is not to cause trouble, so Ma Hong temporarily ignored Lu Qingshan's rudeness.
He waved his hand and ordered his men, "Bring the newly-adult Ferghana horse in the stable to Master Lu."
"I want two." Lu Qingshan interrupted.
High-intensity travel always requires switching between two horses.
Ma Hong was stunned for a moment, then reacted, "First bring the yellow horse that the Hong family ordered last month to Mr. Lu."
He spoke very loudly, undoubtedly trying to curry favor with Lu Qingshan, but to his disappointment, the other party did not react at all.
Soon, the two horses were brought over by the horse breeder.
Both horses were tall and well-proportioned, with shiny fur. Their most obvious feature was the long mane that hung down to the ground from their necks. One had a thick black mane that exuded power and majesty, while the other had a golden red mane that burned like flames.
Ma Hong's eyes showed undisguised pride, "These two BMWs are extremely rare. Even in our Ma family horse farm, it takes several years to produce one."
Lu Qingshan jumped up and immediately leaped onto the back of the Ferghana horse. He clamped his legs together and could feel the strong muscles of the horse under his crotch.
"It's really good." He nodded in praise.
"How to sell it?" Lu Qingshan asked again.
Ma Hong's eyes sparkled. "A horse of this level is worth more than money. It is usually not for sale..."
Before Ma Hong finished speaking, Lu Qingshan had already clamped his legs together, shouted softly, threw something down, and rode away on two horses.
"No need to look for it." Lu Qingshan's voice floated in the wind.
Ma Hong was stunned and subconsciously looked at the object that Lu Qingshan threw into his arms.
It was a book, and the first thing you saw was the four big characters "Qingshan Sword Technique", which were extremely eye-catching. Moreover, it was not printed, but handwritten.
The cursive handwriting reflects the unrestrained character of the writer.
There is a number one in the lower right corner of the cover, and the four big characters "Written by Lu Qingshan" are subscripted.
Looking further down, there are two lines of smaller words.
"Highly recommended by Xie Qingyun, the world's number one swordsman."
"A book that those who learn swordplay should never miss!"
Hong Tao's face twitched.
Who is Xie Qingyun, the best swordsman in the world? Why hasn't he heard of him?
Also, real martial arts secrets are all hardcover. How can there be such shoddy products and self-touting ones?
Qingshan Sword Technique, the sword technique named after himself, also has "one". Does this mean there are two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, and nine?
This guy wants to buy two priceless BMWs with a "martial arts secret book" he casually compiled?
Could it be that if I was polite to him, he would really think that my Ma family is easy to bully?
A feeling of anger rose in Ma Hong's heart.
However, out of curiosity or for some other reason, he subconsciously flipped through the "Qingshan Sword Technique" in his hand.
The next moment, Ma Hong's pupils suddenly dilated, and then he flipped through the book in his hand incredibly quickly.
The Ma family is one of the three major families in the Yuan Dynasty and is also a family of martial arts. As the person in charge of the horse farm, Ma Hong is naturally good in martial arts and has good eyesight. It is no wonder that he can see the exquisite and profound sword skills recorded in this book.
For a moment, he forgot about his recent anger and was only immersed in incomparable amazement.
After a long time, Ma Hong came back to his senses, "Wonderful, really wonderful!"
This set of sword techniques was far superior to any sword techniques he had ever seen before. It seemed so unimaginable and difficult to reach.
With such sword skills, many people would be willing to exchange it for not only two BMWs, but even a hundred BMWs.
After all, a BMW is only a temporary thing, but such sword skills secrets can be passed down for generations.
"What kind of person could compile such a sword technique?" Ma Hong murmured.
Obviously, he did not think that this sword technique was really written by Lu Qingshan, but just thought it was a joke of the young man.
…
Two BMWs came out of the Ma family stable and galloped away.
The so-called "Qingshan Sword Technique 1" was just a few pages that Lu Qingshan scribbled on the way here to fool people in order to pay for the money.
But his swordsmanship, even if it was just to fool people, was definitely unfathomable to this world.
A BMW is indeed a BMW, it can travel a thousand miles a day and eight hundred miles a night.
Lu Qingshan rode two horses, changing horses but not the rider. Except for feeding the horses and resting, he never stopped at all and headed north all the way.
In just ten days, he had traveled more than 5,000 miles and was about to leave the southern border and was not far .
