On this day, already a month after he came to Yujing, he was practicing swordplay in the back garden.
A figure turned around from the corner door, looking slim and graceful, holding a food box in his hand.
Hou Zi had long sensed that someone was approaching, including the entire North Courtyard, every inch of space was within his perception.
He had already given instructions on this, and no one was welcome to disturb him, so no one dared to come over. After living in Yujing City for a long time, no one dared to turn a deaf ear to the cultivator's request.
When this woman stood in a corner of the garden hesitantly, not knowing whether to advance or retreat, or whether to say hello, Hou Zi stopped swinging his sword and turned his head.
A very charming woman stood far away. She was a mature woman, but her charm was still there. Looking at her attire, she was also elegant and decent, leaving no room for blame.
"you are?"
The woman walked over gently, put the food box on the stone table beside her, squatted down and bent her knees, looking very elegant.
"I am the Chu Huang family. I am the master of this place. Please forgive me for disturbing my master's practice."
Hou Zi guessed that this was what happened. The landlord came to see if the tenant was trustworthy and whether he had damaged the property in the room and the flowers and plants in the garden.
Especially for sword cultivators, this is the reason why stone houses are popular throughout the country of Shan. Resist them!
But now from the woman's point of view, the candidate guru is quite stable, the furnishings in the house are not damaged at all, and the flowers and plants in the garden are still green. It can be clearly seen that the weeds have been carefully trimmed, showing a compulsory uniformity.
She couldn't imagine that when all the grasses were kept at the same height, or even had the same forks, the resulting overall effect would be like the top-quality wool carpet produced in Northland.
Of course she didn't understand that this was entirely the result of Feijian's micro-manipulation. She could only understand it in the simplest way that this master was young and had a hobby of gardening?
Hou Zi smiled slightly and said, "Don't disturb me. The environment of Zhongmen Residence is elegant and quiet. It is a good place to practice in a busy city. I am very satisfied."
Mrs. Huang's eyebrows arched in a smile. Considering her age, every move she made was full of amorous feelings and had a unique charm.
"That's good. I would also like to thank my master for pruning the garden on his behalf. It saves me a lot of effort. Otherwise, a gardener would have to spend half a month to roughly renovate such a large place."
Hou Zi smiled unnaturally, "No need to worry, just do it casually, it's just a hobby. It makes me uncomfortable when I look at the unevenness, so..."
This is the first time we meet, so don’t bother us too much. Mrs. Huang is also a woman who has seen the world.
"I made some food, which are all local specialties of Yujing. I originally wanted to invite the master to dinner, but I was afraid of disturbing him..."
Hou Zi didn't want to be disturbed, so he knew it was better to accept people's kindness instead of making excuses to refuse.
"That's it, I'll bear with you."
This is just a small episode, the food is very good, but for him, simple sensory stimulation can no longer seduce him.
He continued his practice and continued searching in the hidden sword tower. Another half month had passed, and he already had some bad expectations in his mind.
Searching all over the swordsmanship section of the Hidden Sword Tower, he couldn't find any sword techniques that were similar to the previous formulas for Shen Jian Shu. He was currently looking for supplementary techniques, but his intuition told him that they might not be what he wanted.
"Are there any hidden skills? Of course there are, but they are all kept in the private treasuries of the major cultivators." An old Tongxuan cultivator in charge of the management of the Hidden Sword Tower said with a smile.
He sighed and took out ten middle-grade spiritual stones, "I don't want to see it, I just want news."
In fact, he also has other ways, such as asking Li Chuping? Or trying to find his friend Rao Zongzhi in Yujing, but he doesn't know if he is still in Yujing?
He would rather spend a little money than go to Li Chuping for fear of getting involved in this trivial matter.
The old cultivator did not pick up his spirit stone. "Junior brother, please wait, I want to know what you want to know by asking these questions? You don't need to be too precise, but you must tell me the general direction, otherwise I won't be able to provide you with accurate information."
news."
Hou Zi didn't want to hide it. In fact, if he really found other sword techniques, it would no longer be a secret when he took them away. There were thousands of sword practitioners in Yanman, and the techniques they took away were countless, and no one knew they took them.
Is it for practice? Or for observation? Did you succeed in practice? Success or failure?
He is not powerful enough for people to pay attention to his every move. In Yujing, he is just an ordinary monk of the second level of Tongtian, with some potential and constant troubles, but he is far from amazing.
Not enough stage is the main reason.
"My good teacher knows that it is about the ancient swordsmanship of the Quanzhen Sect. Well, it is the ones that were proven not to adapt to the trend and were eliminated. I came from Jincheng, and someone told me that I can find these things in the Jade Capital Hidden Sword Tower.
.”
The old cultivator smiled. He expected this. Although it was rare, he had seen some in his decades of service. They were all people with ideas. They thought they could find inspiration from ancient swordsmanship and soared into the sky.
, different.
Although he has a good spirit, he has never succeeded. Since he has been abandoned by the trend of the times, it must be because of his flaws that cannot be concealed. How can a sect like the Quanzhen Sect shelve truly useful things on the shelf and no one cares about them?
But there is no need to say this; don’t hit the wall and don’t look back. For the monks in the Third Realm of Tongtian who have initially laid the foundation for the Taoism, nothing can make them remember better than the failure of their attempts.
"In that case, I can tell you, but it's your business to figure out how to watch it.
In the Jade Capital Hidden Sword Tower, there are indeed some skills that are not suitable to be shown to others, including those that are incomplete, misleading, wrong, and inhumane. They have been concentrated and sealed in underground storage, and monks are not allowed to observe them.
Only when you have reached the realm of golden elixir and can completely control your own overhaul can you have the right to refer to it at will. The main thing is to learn from it, analyze it, and deduce it in reverse.
You are not allowed to enter and exit the underground warehouse casually. You need to be recommended by at least three Jindan monks before you can enter. Of course, in fact, you only need one Jindan elder who trusts you. He can easily find someone to help you complete the recommendation.
"
Hou Ting was stunned. Things were back to the starting point. Could it be that it would also fall on Li Chuping?
He still handed over the spirit stone, but the old cultivator still refused, "This is Yujing, not your Jincheng! It is the responsibility of us veteran cultivators to help you, so if you have any questions, just ask, there is no need to use these bribery methods."
Seeing that he didn't seem to be a hypocrite, Hou Zi accepted the lesson and said, "Thank you, senior brother, for your advice. I have been hanging around outside for a long time, and I have become accustomed to it, which makes senior brother laugh."
The old cultivator smiled and nodded, "I'm very surprised, how did you come up with the idea of these ancient sword skills?"
Hou Zi smiled bitterly, "I missed a copy at the Jincheng Sword Hidden Tower..."
The old cultivator burst into laughter, "That's true. It seems that you have gained something? Anyway, I will teach you another lesson. If you have made meritorious deeds for the teaching and have enough qualifications and merit, you can also use this to apply to the department you belong to."
It will be easier if you ask me to send a letter to you, and you can make some connections."
Hou Zi was embarrassed. What achievements had he made? It seems that he is still having his salary withheld until now.
