The Path Toward Heaven Chapter 24: 9 nights
On the next night, Liu Shisui came to Jing Jiu's cave again. He didn't stay for too long, he just said a few words and left.
As a natural Taoist species who has high hopes from the entire Green Mountain Sect, Liu Shisui is now under too much pressure. There are many disciples with the same talents here in the inner sect. Not to mention, he is now learning swords from Gu Han, and he is often exposed to those abnormalities on Liangwang Peak, and naturally he can't relax.
On the third night, Liu Shisui came, laid the bed for Jing Jiu, poured tea and water.
Jing Jiu noticed the inconvenience of walking on his left leg, and then found a wound on the back of his neck.
"Has been beaten again?"
Liu Shisui hurriedly explained: "It has nothing to do with Brother Gu, it is the injury he suffered while playing the sword."
Jing Jiu did not speak any more.
Maybe because he lied, maybe because he defended Gu Han in front of Jing Jiu, Liu Shisui felt that the atmosphere had become a little embarrassing.
"The son... I'm leaving now?"
Jing Jiu ignored him.
the wind rose outside the cave, the sword light illuminates a corner of the night, and disappears in a flash.
Jing Jiu raised his head, looked at the place, and was silent.
He is very aware of Liang Wangfeng’s style of doing things, but any disciple whom they like will inevitably be strictly controlled, and Liu Shisui will inevitably endure great pressure.
On the fourth night, the courtyard was pushed aside again, but it was not Liu Shisui who came tonight, but the fat man who had met once on Jianfeng that day.
"My name is MCA. My name is very unremarkable. I rank 37 on Liangwang Peak. It is also very unremarkable, but of course it is much more important than you. Although you are more famous than me. You should be very clear about my purpose tonight. , Yes, I’m speaking on behalf of Brother Gu San, and I want you not to meet ten-year-old again in the future. You don’t have to rush to talk. I know you look down on this method, and as long as you don’t join Liangwangfeng, we don’t make sense. Take care of you, but don’t forget that at the age of ten, we are now learning swords with us."
Ma Hua looked at Jing Jiu and smiled and said, "I am punished by Feng Gui every day at the age of ten. The injuries are not serious, but they always hurt. Why do you think this is necessary?"
Jing Jiu glanced at him.
MCA went on to say: "At the age of ten, you can follow you without cultivating at the age of ten, but you know that he can't make such a choice now."
Jing Jiu knew what he was saying was true. As a natural Taoist, he came to the nine peaks and came into contact with those aspiring Dao Sword Art. Who could give up?
"Of course, we will not force him to make a choice."
MCA said with a smile: "In fact, if he can't see you, you can go see him."
's implied meaning is very deep, but to Jing Jiu it is like a rock in a shallow stream, and it is clearly visible.
Jing Jiu was a little surprised: "Do you want me to enter the Two Forgotten Peaks?"
Ma Hua looked at him and said with a smile: "My thoughts are different from Gu San. I don’t care whether you take the pill or how you enter the inner door. I only know that you are so lazy, you can still get to this point. , That only shows that you are also a real genius, and my favorite of Liang Wangfeng is a genius."
The problem is that Jing Jiu doesn't like Liangwangfeng.
He pointed outside the hole and motioned to see off the guests.
MCA’s smile didn’t turn away, but instead became more prosperous, saying: "Interesting, interesting."
……
……
On the fifth night, Liu Shisui came.
Jing Jiu didn't see any trauma on his body, but he saw fatigue on his face and some hesitation in his eyes.
The cave is very quiet. He finished his work at the age of ten, stood in front of him, lowered his head and said: "Sword training is too hard, too much homework, I can’t do it every day..."
Jing Jiu raised his hand. At the age of ten, he understood what he meant and stopped talking.
"Furthermore, you need to concentrate."
Liu Shisui raised his head and looked at Jing Jiu's profile.
Jing Jiu is looking at the sword scripture, looking very attentive.
Liu Shisui knew that he just didn't want to look at himself.
The son is very lazy and never reads a book.
……
……
On the sixth night, Liu Shisui did not come.
On the seventh night, he came.
On the eighth night, he didn't come.
On the ninth night.
Jing Jiu raised his head and glanced out of the window, confirming that it was late and he probably wouldn't be here.
Since then, he has not looked out the window again.
……
……
The following days were still so monotonous, there was nothing to say.
The disciples of Xijian Pavilion practiced diligently, and more than a dozen disciples who entered the inner gate with him were climbing Jianfeng every day. It is said that a few people saw the hope of success, only Jing Jiu was still like Nansong Pavilion. , Basking in the sun every day, putting gravel into the pan seriously, waiting for time to turn the vast ocean of spirit sea into the nutrients needed for sword fruit.
So he became an alien again.
But unlike in Nansong Pavilion, the Immortal Master Lin Wuzhi from Tianguangfeng was only responsible for answering the questions of his disciples, and he never cared that he never went to class.
The other disciples were a little curious at first, but after a period of observation, he found that he was like the rumors, so he ignored him, and he didn't even talk a lot.
After all, kendo is difficult and dangerous and requires diligence and diligence, so there is no time to care about others.
A few days later, Beihe Pavilion and other places sent in a group of new disciples who passed the examination, and Nansong Pavilion also came to several disciples, including Xue Yongge, Junior Sister Yushan, and the boy with the Yuan surname from Lelang County , It seems that Master Lu’s departure did not have much impact on them~ IndoMTL.com~ In Xijian Pavilion, Xue Yongge publicized Jing Jiu’s laziness and bad habits, but unfortunately did not get much response. .
Junior Sister Yushan and the teenager from Lelang County defended Jing Jiu a few words, and made a special trip to visit Jing Jiu again.
Jing Jiu still doesn't understand, but he behaves much closer than when he was in Nansong Pavilion.
He remembered the name of Junior Sister Yushan, and asked her to eat two shanguo with the teenager from Lelang County.
That night, two apes came over the mountain and found that there was no fruit to eat. They couldn't help feeling a little bitter.
So time passed slowly and calmly.
Liu Shisui has come here twice secretly, making the bed for him, sweeping the courtyard, and saying a few words.
I don’t know if the pressure is too much now, or because the practice is too hard, he talks less and less.
A few days later, Jing Jiu learned from Junior Sister Yushan that it turned out that the date of the Sword Inheritance Conference had been set, just in the early spring of next year.
calculated carefully, it is only half a year before the time of the sword.
This time, the most anticipated person at the Sword Inheritance Conference is of course Zhao Layue. It can even be said to have attracted much attention. Swordsman, and in the end she will choose which mountain to bear the sword.
Apart from Zhao Layue, Liu Shisui is the one who has received the most attention.
Everyone is curious about the cultivation speed of this natural Taoist species.
Now that Liu Shisui's sword pill has been completed, if he can achieve a complete defense and is eligible to participate in the sword inheritance conference, he will definitely become the focus of the competition.
In that case, he will become the second youngest sword bearer in history.
……
……
The next morning, Jing Jiu left the cave.
He is going to see Liu Shisui.
