Chapter 8: Bastards
The sword performance field is hundreds of feet long, and the ground is paved with extremely hard-working green mountain rocks. It has been carefully polished and very flat. People step on it, steadily and calmly.
On the field, more than 200 new generation disciples sat in a circle, holding their breath and opening their eyes widened, fearing that they would miss a scene that they never met in their lifetime if they blinked.
In the circle, Xiao Jihai stood proudly, with a swordsman style. In front of him, about three feet away, there was a newly cut tree trunk, the size of a bowl.
He suddenly moved, and the sword on his waist came out, and he ran out of the sheath and brought out a sound like a dragon's roar. His hands were moving, but his steps remained in place, without moving in an instant.
Saw!
The sword flew into the air and pointed at the tree trunk three meters away. However, in an instant, the sword light flashed, but it had already returned to the sheath.
The whole process was just a few breaths. The disciples watching had a little lack of cultivation, and even didn't understand why the sword in the elder's hand looked like.
Then all eyes poured on the trunk of the tree, and clearly saw seven big words stabbed on it: Xiao Jihai, Jianfu, Zhongnan!
This is the word Xiao Jihai just used to carry a sword in the air and stabbed out three meters apart.
Such swordsmanship has long exceeded the scope of sword moves, and is called "sword energy".
The sword energy is invisible, but it has a qualitative nature, like an antelope hanging its horns, which is elusive, and it hurts people and defeats the enemy in the blink of an eye.
"Did you see it? That's the sword energy!"
"Elder Xiao is a cultivation of Qidao's eighth section, it's so amazing..."
"Awesome? This is not the elder's true attainment. It was deliberately reduced so that everyone can see clearly."
"Yes, Elder Xiao's famous sword aura is called 'Shan Guang Xiluo', which is so mysterious that it is so mysterious that we can truly understand."
"Oh, when can I have half of the elder's cultivation level, then I'll be satisfied..."
The striking comments came one after another.
Xiao Jihai was carrying his hands on his back and was about to explain, but suddenly he saw a person rushing towards the exit of the sword court. It was Guan Heng, a disciple who was sent by him to the sword lecture hall to retrieve the sword title.
Today is the last day of the Sword Hall. If nothing unexpected happens, after demonstrating the sword energy, explain it again, and it will be almost over.
Xiao Jihai had something else to do, so he changed his plan temporarily and was not going to go back to the sword hall to make a summary, so he ordered Guan Heng to go over and take down the sword title left on the stone wall and take it over.
"Elder Xiao, Elder Xiao is in trouble."
Guan Heng ran in a hurry, and he was so angry when he shouted.
Xiao Jihai couldn't help but frown. The disciple had always been calm and became impatient now. He shouted: "If you have something to do, you can make a fuss, what kind of style is it."
Guan Heng shut up immediately.
"Tell me, what happened?"
When the disciple calmed down, Xiao Jihai asked slowly. His skill in nourishing energy had already reached a certain level of attainment. Even if there was a strong enemy invasion at this time, he would not be in a hurry.
Guan Heng gusted and reported: "Elder Xiao, your sword question has been cracked again."
"What?"
Elder Xiao, who was very good at qi cultivation, suddenly jumped like a cat with his tail being stepped on by someone, and almost jumped up: "Bastard, why didn't you say it earlier!"
He turned his body smoothly, and used his brilliant skills to run towards the lecture hall. He left a large group of disciples looking at each other, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh.
Especially when Guan Heng was scolded for no reason, he felt most wronged: you asked me to say something slowly...
...
In the sword lecture hall, facing the jade-filled sword title that had turned into powder, Xiao Jihai's expression changed several times, for a moment, for a moment, for a moment, for a moment, for a moment, for a moment, for a moment, for a moment, for a moment, for a moment, for a moment, fell into deep thought.
The disciples rushed back at this moment, but no one dared to make noise and interrupted the elder's thoughts. They just surrounded the outside and looked at each other with their necks stretched out and curiously.
From solving the lower-grade sword problem of the Xuan-level, to solving the middle-grade sword problem of the Xuan-level, it was only a day before the cracker was the dragon but the head was not seen, and he still had no identity.
From the beginning to the present, the whole thing is filled with an indescribable mystery.
"Since all the new generation of disciples were on the sword-acting field before, they would definitely not be them; could they be really a true disciple, or a disciple in the guard who was very brave and came to solve the sword problem? It makes no sense..."
As high-level disciples, their welfare benefits are very good. Many resources in the Sword House are freely open to them. If you want to solve a certain sword problem, you can apply directly, without having to sneak in.
"No, this matter must be found out."
Xiao Jihai gritted his teeth and, without further ado, immediately met with the master of the mansion and the other three elders to discuss.
The big guys were a little surprised to hear such a strange thing in the Sword Hall this year. They immediately ordered all the true disciples and guard disciples on the mountain to ask.
After some trouble, at night, the disciples came out and there was no suspicion.
Faced with this result, Xiao Jihai was simply crazy: No one was suspicious, could it be a ghost?
He did not believe in evil, so he continued to investigate overnight, narrowed the search scope further, locked on those who had entered the Sword Hall during this period, and checked one by one, and finally found that the greatest possibility was a group of tragic servants.
Xiao Jihai was stunned on the spot.
The servants are the lowest-level existence in the Sword Mansion, and are idle people, or are not people from the Sword Mansion at all. No one will ever pay attention to them.
How is that possible?
The serious servants themselves basically do not know martial arts. Who would be willing to be a serious servant and sweep the floor to serve people?
So if you don’t have a foundation in martial arts, can you solve the sword problem? It’s simply contrary to common sense.
Could it be the enemy spy sent by Tiandu Sect... This is unlikely. Since it is a spy, how could he rashly solve the sword problem? Doesn’t that mean that he has exposed himself?
Moreover, as a servant, even if you are a spy, it is difficult to get any secrets. There is no reason to secretly learn martial arts. "Tanhua Sword Qi Jue" is just a mysterious middle-grade sword technique, and it is not worth the effort.
After thinking about it, a flash of light in my mind—
"In the choreographed service, a peerless sword genius who has ever been seen once in a century appeared?"
Xiao Jihai scratched his hair and smacked his lips: Even he himself felt the possibility was mysterious and unbelievable. However, after he had inexplicably, he could no longer hold on. The talents in the Sword House have now withered and have reached a critical point. If he can really discover a peerless genius, then he will be developed.
Of course, before it is truly confirmed, all this is just a personal imagination, so it is hard to explain it in advance. If it is not true, wouldn’t it be a slap in the face? So I kept silent and asked Deacon Luo, a miscellaneous deacon in the foreign government:
"What? You fired the Liang clerk today and drove down the mountain?"
When the most critical step was found, the clues were broken, and Xiao Jihai was very angry. Although he looked horizontally and vertically, the servant named "Liang Qiufeng" was unlikely to be the one he was looking for, but if he did not check it in person, how to give up. You should know that solving the first sword question may be lucky, but after solving the second sword question within a short time, there was no other explanation except the genius.
Talent is easy to obtain, but genius is hard to meet.
Deacon Luo was confused and had no idea what he had done, and even attracted this elder-level figure to come to the door in the middle of the night. Although he was so powerful in front of the servants, he didn't dare to breathe in front of Xiao Jihai. He asked or answered.
Deacon Luo whispered aggrievedly: "That kid is lazy and can't do his best to work..."
Bang!
A loud slap was taken on the fat face, and five finger marks were immediately eye-catching.
"A bastard, I told you that you should go down the mountain and get him back immediately. If you can't find him, you don't have to come back... No, if you can't find him, you should bring him back. Also, this matter must be kept confidential. If you dare to gossip, hum, you should always be mute."
If it weren't for the important matter, Xiao Jihai would have wanted to go down the mountain in person. However, he did not know Liang Qiufeng, and the truth was unknown, so it was not appropriate to cause trouble.
The elder was furious, Deacon Luo was frightened. He was not a stupid person and dared not say anything anymore. He hurriedly cleaned up, took Xiao Jihai's special handwriting, and went down the mountain overnight to find Liang Qiufeng.
The night was dark, and the two-meter-old Deacon was in a daze. Deacon Luo felt the fat face and burned pain, and he screamed in his heart: I, Luo Daliang, offended some gods, and suddenly encountered this difficulty... It turns out that Liang Qiufeng, this boy, was silent and actually hugged Elder Xiao's thighs? Oh, how could that guy know the details very well.
After thinking for no reason, Deacon Luo simply put it aside, thinking that the truth would be revealed after finding Liang Qiufeng.
But once you leave Zhongnan Mountain, the sky is vast and the earth is vast. Where should you find someone?
Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo w
What's the matter?
Confused and full of depression and aggrievance, the fat face that was beaten even more painful.
