Volume 9: Sword Opens the Gate of Heaven Chapter 15: Good-looking people, beautiful swords
After Li Qiubai finished speaking, Lu Qingshan was speechless for a moment.
He had mixed feelings in his heart. The sword immortal was extremely strong and masculine, and extremely domineering. With such talent, it was normal for him to be arrogant. Not to mention that Li Qiubai's arrogance was not intentional, but a natural expression of it as a matter of course.
But no matter what, he still had a strange feeling of "hunting geese all day, but getting pecked in the eye by a goose".
"Are they your disciples?" Li Qiubai skipped the topic and curled his lips at Lin Chuyi and Lin Shiwu standing beside him, looking very interested.
Lu Qingshan was startled, then nodded and said, "Yes."
Li Qiubai raised his eyelids and said with a smile: "You are so lucky, you found two little disciples who are born with divine will and have divine power in their bones. If you teach them seriously, although it will not be easy for them to reach the level of Xia Daoyun, it is very likely that they will become two great sword masters."
Lu Qingshan was shocked.
Divine will is innate and inherent in the bones?
This means that the secret techniques related to swordsmanship should be contained in the Tianzhi Difu spiritual bones in the bodies of the two sisters Chuyi and Shiwu.
No wonder the two of them were able to develop some sword intent when they held the sword for the first time.
It turns out that he was born with sword bones.
His cultivation was still low, so he could only see the location of the spiritual bones but not the owner of the secret method. However, Li Qiubai saw through it at a glance.
Here, Li Qiubai looked kind and gentle, lowered his head and asked the two sisters gently, "Do you like to use swords?"
"I like it." The two sisters were confused and didn't understand the situation, but they answered the question without hesitation.
Influenced by everything they see and hear, the master is the person they admire the most, and the sword is the weapon they are closest to and love the most.
The sword fairy asked again: "Two little girls, do you want to learn some real skills from me?"
Lu Qingshan was deeply moved, but he never expected that his sister Lin Chuyi would immediately shake her head firmly and answer without hesitation: "Thank you, uncle, but my sister and I already have a master."
In their opinion, since they have a master, they have to learn from him.
"I should be much stronger than your master."
"So what?" Lin Shiwu asked in a daze. It was not a rhetorical question of feigned defiantness, but a sincere question .
She really didn't understand what the connection was.
Li Qiubai couldn't help but burst into laughter, "Interesting, interesting, you two little girls really have some sword skills."
There were people who wanted to ask him to teach one or two swords, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that there were people from Chang'an City all the way to Tai'an City. But today, he took the initiative to ask him, but was rejected by two young children who had not yet practiced.
He rubbed his chin. The more he thought about it, the more interesting it became. But he said no more. He walked around the boat twice with his hands behind his back, and finally returned to the cabin.
After Li Qiubai left, Lu Qingshan looked at the two sisters and asked, "Why did you refuse?"
"Because our master is you." Lin Chuyi said as a matter of course, and was very confused as to why Lu Qingshan asked this.
"Don't you want to take him as your master?"
The two shook their heads, their eyes widened, "How can that be possible?"
"He is a sword immortal. Compared with him, I am actually far inferior. You can learn more from him." Lu Qingshan explained patiently.
"But Master is also very strong," Lin Chuyi blinked his big eyes, "We are still young, we can't learn things that are too advanced."
"You think I'm strong now, but that's because you don't understand the differences between sword cultivators," Lu Qingshan said slowly, "Senior Li is already a top figure at the peak of the sword path, a sword immortal. Becoming his disciple is something that all sword cultivators in the world covet. If you can become his disciple and receive his guidance, you two may be able to make rapid progress in the sword path in the future. It's rare that he admires you so much now and is willing to teach you a few moves. It's not wise to refuse."
Lin Chuyi had a bitter face and said nothing.
"What? You still don't understand?" Seeing the expressions of the two, Lu Qingshan asked again.
"Master, we have always understood what you said." Lin Chuyi raised his head and stared at Lu Qingshan.
"But, in our hearts, the one we admire the most is always Master, and only Master."
She said in a childish voice: "Master is still young, but he is already so strong. If he were the same age as Uncle Li, who knows who would be stronger!"
Lin Chuyi was still a little unconvinced and couldn't help but speak up for Lu Qingshan.
"My sister and I are very happy to be able to worship you as our master and become our registered disciples. We have never been happier," said Lin Shiwu, the younger sister, at this time. "We would not be so happy if we worshipped anyone else as our master, even if it was the Sword Immortal mentioned by the master."
"Happy..." Lu Qingshan's eyes flashed, and he was silent for a moment. Finally, he rubbed the heads of the two sisters and smiled gently, "Then I hope you are happy."
Children's intelligence is always so clear and bright.
The two sisters' little heads obviously couldn't understand too many things, but they just needed to know that the master was still the master.
Lin Chuyi smiled, thinking for a moment, and then looked up at Lu Qingshan and said, "Master, do you know who the Fifteenth and I admire the most besides you?"
Lu Qingshan shook his head, but guessed in his heart that it should be Li Qiubai.
With one sword strike, the sword immortal can split a river and break armor. Who wouldn’t be in awe when seeing this?
Lin Chuyi's eyes sparkled with stars, and he said shyly: "It's Master's Master, that is, Grandmaster, and Uncle Li is the third."
Xia Daoyun?
This was beyond Lu Qingshan's expectations.
"Why?"
“Master is so powerful, and my great-grandmother can be my master, so she must be even more powerful. Besides, she is very beautiful.” Lin Chuyi said timidly, feeling a little shy.
A woman always loves and yearns for beauty, even if she is just a child.
It's not good to be a face lover. Lu Qingshan smiled and said slowly: "Don't worry, when you grow up, you will definitely be very good-looking."
The two sisters are naturally smart and good-looking. They are born beauties. Judging from their small size, one can imagine that they will definitely be two beautiful beauties when they grow up.
At this time, sister Lin Chuyi looked up at the slow-moving Lu Qingshan and suddenly couldn't help but say: "When we grow up, if we can be half as good-looking as Master, we will be satisfied."
Younger sister Lin Shiwu nodded seriously, obviously agreeing with her sister's statement.
Their master is really very good-looking.
Lu Qingshan was startled, then shook his head helplessly, "We sword practitioners travel the world, and we rely not on our looks, but on the swords in our hands."
Lin Chuyi looked stubborn.
Although she respected Lu Qingshan very much, even if her master told the truth today, her thoughts would not change.
snort!
…
The Lancang River runs across the east and west, directly connecting the central parts of Lancang and Cangzhou, hence the name.
The so-called sword tomb is actually in the Cangzhou area.
It is actually a good choice to go down the Lancang River to Cangzhou.
That night, the moon was full in the sky.
The sky is so clear that you can see five fingers of your fingertips. The moonlight is as bright as water. The river breeze seems to create ripples in the moonlight.
As the ship continued to sail downstream, they had already escaped from the cold and dangerous current.
Lu Qingshan leaned on the railing and looked into the distance, while his two disciples also stood aside, looking at the stern with interest.
At the stern of the ship, there were two sword auras swimming like fish, pushing the ship forward rapidly.
This is also a little trick of the sword immortal.
At the right time, Li Qiubai walked out of the cabin.
He held a moon lamp in his hand and leaned casually on the railing.
The watery moonlight at this moment actually looked like real water drops, dripping from the moon and falling into the moon cup.
After a while, the shallow moon cup was filled, emitting a light and elegant aroma of wine.
The swordsman raised the moon cup in his hand to Lu Qingshan and suddenly said, "Boy, would you like a drink?"
Lu Qingshan thought about it, took the moon cup, put it to his mouth and drank it slowly.
The liquid in the cup was slowly decreasing, and his mouth was filled with fragrance, but Lu Qingshan did not feel any liquid flowing through his throat.
It was as if a pool of moonlight was flowing through every part of my body, pure and elegant.
The most peculiar thing was that Lu Qingshan felt that his whole body became a lot lighter at this moment, and his mind became refreshed as well.
This strange feeling made him unforgettable for a long time. He looked at the moon lamp in his hand with a strange look.
"This is the first time I've seen this magic weapon." Lu Qingshan exclaimed.
This is a treasure pot.
As long as there is moonlight, one can collect such fairy wine. This magic weapon is enough to make a family prosperous for a thousand years.
Li Qiubai said casually: "I am addicted to alcohol. Xiao said that drinking too much alcohol is bad for the body, so I asked someone to make this moon cup for me."
"It tastes like wine, but it lacks some flavor." The sword immortal sighed.
Some are funny, some are cute.
The funny thing is, Li Qiubai is at the level of a sword immortal. For him, let alone ordinary alcohol, even poisonous wine is the same as water. How can it be bad for his health?
The cute thing is, the woman must have understood this, but she still did it.
It's like for the person you love, even if he or she is just cut by a blade of grass and it may heal in no time, you will still feel extremely distressed.
Although the swordsman seemed to be disgusted, he actually kept the Yuezhan by his side.
"Fine wine in a luminous cup."
Lu Qingshan turned the moon cup over, and at the bottom of the cup, seven small words glowed brightly.
The ability of the Moon Cup is to transform moonlight into "fine wine" that is beneficial to spiritual practice.
However, Lu Qingshan was thinking of another sentence in his mind.
"How many people have ever returned from battles in ancient times?"
I guess this is what the woman really wanted to say to him.
Lu Qingshan handed the moon cup back to Li Qiubai, lowered his eyes slightly, but saw the two sisters Lin Chuyi and Lin Shiwu looking at him eagerly.
"You want to try it too?" Li Qiubai also noticed the gazes of the two sisters.
When Lin Chuyi and Lin Shiwu found out that their little thoughts had been discovered, they felt a little embarrassed and shook their heads awkwardly.
Li Qiubai laughed, and the moon lamp lit up again. The moonlight flowed down from the moon like a clear mountain spring, as full as clear water.
When a thin layer of "wine" appeared at the bottom of the cup, he handed the cup to the two little sisters.
Lin Chuyi stretched out his hands and took the moon cup.
The two sisters took turns and carefully sipped the wine in the moon cup. Their little faces immediately became pink. Finally, they shyly returned the moon cup to Li Qiubai and whispered, "Thank you, uncle."
Li Qiubai laughed heartily and looked at the two sisters, but his eyes were a little dazed.
She was the same back then, liking to follow me around, with the same admiring eyes and the same smiling face.
She said that you will definitely become the leader in swordsmanship, the most talented and spirited , and her favorite swordsman.
At that time, he just thought that the little girl was young and ignorant.
But who would have thought that even after ascending to a high throne and having all the power in the world, she still looked like a little girl in front of him.
The sword master who used the name Chang'an muttered to himself.
He sought the path of immortal swordsmanship and the freedom and ease, so he flew out from Chang'an with a sword.
But even though they passed each other, how could he not miss the person in Chang'an?
This was the reason why he had thought about teaching Lin Chuyi and Lin Shiwu a trick or two.
He raised his head, looked at Lu Qingshan, and said calmly: "In Tai'an City, your sword has the demeanor of a master. How long have you been practicing this sword?"
How long have you been practicing this sword?
Lu Qingshan was stunned and hesitated, not knowing how to answer.
If you really want to count, it might be one breath.
Just adding a dot.
But that certainly can’t be said.
Finally, he gave a moderate but sincere answer, "It won't take long, it will just come naturally."
Li Jianxian looked skeptical.
"Boy, draw your sword."
Lu Qingshan did not hesitate. With a thought, a ray of bright light burst out from his body.
Dragon bird in hand.
"Be careful." Li Qiubai said.
He pressed his fingers together to form a sword, and attacked Lu Qingshan when he just drank the moon wine and his mind was clear.
Two sword auras instantly exploded from Li Qiubai's fingers, like two dragons drawing water, the sword energy was awe-inspiring, slashing towards Lu Qingshan.
In an instant, it was hitting his face directly.
Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, Longque jumped up in a flash and took on the two cold sword energies.
The next moment, Lu Qingshan felt a shock in his palm and he almost couldn't hold the Dragon Bird.
Because the two sword auras exploded like thunder, spreading along the sword body directly to Lu Qingshan's hands, and then flowing through his limbs and bones, causing him to feel tingling and numb all over.
The sword immortal did not give Lu Qingshan time to react, and extended another finger to hit the dragon bird again.
The dragon bird made a clanging sound and almost flew out of my hand.
Lu Qingshan's scalp felt numb.
"Use Sword One." said the Sword Immortal.
Lu Qingshan didn't think about anything else. He subconsciously mobilized all the spiritual power in his body and, according to Li Qiubai's instructions, used the Zhentian Secret Sword to show off his skills in front of an expert.
Just as the spiritual power was surging and the dragon bird was buzzing, about to come out, Li Qiubai gracefully stretched out two fingers to clamp the edge of the dragon bird sword, and also clamped the vast energy in Lu Qingshan's body.
Lu Qingshan was horrified and couldn't figure out the mystery.
It clearly looks plain and simple.
Ding ding ding.
But this is not the end yet, Li Qiubai easily released his fingers.
The next moment, Lu Qingshan's dragon bird began to shake violently.
There is an indescribable aura on the sword, like a snake running around, with a majestic aura.
One breath after another, one layer after another.
Lu Qingshan took repeated steps backwards, stirring up wood chips on the bow deck. He retreated more than ten feet before he finally stabilized.
"To have a superior sword move that is powerful and fierce, you need one that is as steady as the Five Mountains." Li Qiubai narrowed his eyes and looked at Lu Qingshan.
"Your Sword One is strong and powerful, but not stable enough. Anyone can see the fluctuations in Sword One. It is inevitable that it is a little flashy."
Lu Qingshan remained silent.
That's true.
Therefore, in order to ensure Zhentian's hit, he usually needs to make a lot of preparations.
"The real way to explode is to listen to thunder in silence, like the sudden explosion of Jingzhe, and then gather all the energy into a line and let it fall together."
"This is a beautiful sword."
"There are countless sword moves in the world. Explaining them to you one by one would waste countless saliva and energy. No matter how much I teach you, all you learn is my sword. So I will not teach you sword moves, I will only give you moves."
He said: "If you can break my two fingers one day, then breaking the so-called Ten Flower Divine Gate will not be a problem at all."
Lu Qingshan's eyes flashed, "Senior, what you mean is, next..."
"Before we get to the Sword Tomb, I can play with you as long as you're not afraid of getting beaten every day." Li Qiubai glanced at Lu Qingshan and said indifferently.
Lu Qingshan cupped his hands and said, "It's my blessing that I have been asking for so long."
…
The rolling Lancang River flows eastward, and five days pass in a flash.
The large ship gradually approached the Cangzhou Sword Tomb area.
The sound of the tide is everywhere.
Jianfen is a sect built on the crest of the tide.
The sudden sound of the tide indicated that the sword tomb was approaching.
At this moment, Lu Qingshan somehow suddenly felt the mysterious meaning between the unknown and the unknown, which can only be understood but not expressed in words.
