He came to the cliff and looked down, his chest widened. The harsh wind didn't feel cold on his face. The wind seemed to be soaked by the lake water, moist and gentle.
He came behind Xia Wufeng, cupped his fists and said, "Senior Brother Xia."
Xia Wufeng stood motionless, with her back to him, like a statue.
Li Muchan said no more, came to him, stood side by side with him on the edge of the cliff, facing the wind, looking down at the lake and the mountains and forests at his feet.
After a while, Xia Wufeng slowly turned his head.
"Junior Brother Li." He nodded lightly, then turned around and looked into the distance, motionless.
Li Muchan saw the melancholy and sadness in his eyes.
"Senior Brother Xia is thinking about his sweetheart, right?" Li Muchan asked.
Xia Wufeng suddenly turned his head, his gaze was like a razor blade, as if he wanted to stab him to the core.
Li Muchan smiled: "Senior Brother Xia, is he heartbroken and unable to embrace others, or is he separated from his sweetheart?"
Xia Wufeng laughed and shook his head: "You don't understand."
Li Muchan looked at him and smiled: "Then let me guess what?"
"Oh——?" Xia Wufeng smiled and nodded disapprovingly: "Okay, take a guess."
Li Muchan looked at him for a few times, pondered for a moment, and said: "Senior Brother Xia's sweetheart is not someone who is in love with someone else, or a yin and yang that is separated from her, but she wants to see her but cannot see her, and there are many obstacles. Could it be that she is the daughter of her enemy?"
Xia Wufeng was startled, and his face changed slightly. He stared at Li Muchan with his eyes, like two arrows shot into Li Muchan's eyes, piercing straight into his heart.
Li Muchan was not afraid of mental pressure and smiled slightly: "Brother Xia, could it be that I guessed it right?"
"Who did you listen to?!" Xia Wufeng snorted.
Li Muchan shook his head: "If I said that I had never heard of it, wouldn't you believe me, Senior Brother Xia?"
"...I believe it." Xia Wufeng glanced at him, slowly looked away, and nodded: "No one knows about this matter, so naturally no one will talk about it."
Li Muchan smiled and said: "Senior Brother Xia, tell me how you are. Who is my sister-in-law that makes you so troubled?"
If you want to get acquainted with someone, treat them as an old friend. Li Muchan is very familiar with this skill of getting along with people, and he and Xia Wufeng are not unfamiliar at all.
Xia Wufeng smiled lightly: "It can't be better."
Li Muchan pondered and said slowly: "Hmm..., people from Sanxiaotang? From Beijiang Sword Sect? From Haitian Palace?... Hey, are they really from Haitian Palace!?"
Xia Wufeng's eyes widened and he hummed: "Junior brother, being too curious is not a good thing!"
Li Muchan smiled and said: "What does it matter? If you two really have a deep relationship, it doesn't matter if you are enemies. The key is how you deal with it!"
Xia Wufeng shook his head: "Junior brother, you don't understand anything. We and Haitian Palace..."
He shook his head, let out a long sigh, and looked into the distance.
*************************************************
Li Muchan frowned, but he didn't expect that he was really from Haitian Palace.
Regarding the grievances between Haitian Palace and Xinghu Xiaozhu, he had also heard about it when he and his three senior sisters were together.
A superior one.
It would be best if you can kill the opponent. Even if you can't kill, you will be injured or humiliated, it is still a victory. The hatred that has been forged for generations cannot be solved no matter what.
"Senior brother, how could you...?" Li Muchan shook his head when he said this. Maybe he didn't know that the other party was a disciple of Haitian Palace before. When he found out, it was too late and he fell deeply in love.
Xia Wufeng shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Li Muchan thought for a moment and said, "Isn't it a honey trap?"
Xia Wufeng turned to look at him with a frown: "Junior Brother Li, why do you have such thoughts?!"
Li Muchan muttered: "This is not impossible. Senior brother, you are a once-in-a-hundred-year-old genius in Xinghu Xiaozhu. You will definitely be an elder and a pillar in the future. The people in Haitian Palace will definitely want to kill you and then be quick."
"Hmph, kill me!" Xia Wufeng curled his lips in disdain.
Li Muchan said: "Senior brother, you are extremely skilled in martial arts and are not afraid of force. However, since ancient times, heroes have struggled with beauty. It is most cost-effective to use a beauty to trap you, senior brother!"
"Junior Brother, you are really..." Xia Wufeng shook his head and smiled bitterly, disapprovingly, feeling harsh that Junior Brother Li expressed his feelings too coldly.
Li Muchan said no more. Men and women who fall in love are fools. This is what Buddhism calls infatuation. Men and women in love turn a blind eye to everything and hear nothing. They only have eyes for each other. They cannot see Mount Tai with a single leaf. How can I say this?
It's no use either.
Everyone was like this, so Li Muchan didn't make fun of him. It would be the same if he fell in love. He was thinking about the possibility.
"Junior brother, don't think blindly, Xiaoye is not that kind of person!" Xia Wufeng said.
Li Muchan nodded without refuting.
He couldn't tell whether she was that kind of person, but this was just his guess. Whether it was a beauty trap or not, he had to see it carefully.
"Senior brother, please take me to meet my sister-in-law if you have a chance. I'll help you take a look." Li Muchan said.
"You——?" Xia Wufeng looked at him.
Li Muchan smiled and said: "When it comes to martial arts, senior brother, you have reduced complexity into simplicity, and reduced splendidness to blandness. It can be said to be profound and unpredictable. But when it comes to looking at people, it can break people's hearts. I have some unique insights, which are slightly better than you, senior brother."
"That's not a small tone!" Xia Wufeng smiled and shook his head.
Li Muchan said: "If you listen to one side, you will be enlightened, and if you listen to both, you will be dark. If my sister-in-law is really okay, how about I help you give you some advice and find a way to marry her?"
Xia Wufeng laughed, shook his head and said, "Let's forget it."
Li Muchan smiled and shook his head: "Senior brother, are you scared?"
"What am I afraid of!" Xia Wufeng smiled and looked into the distance.
Li Muchan said: "Senior brother is afraid that unfortunately I will hit the mark and it is really a honey trap, isn't it?"
Xia Wufeng shook his head and smiled, but said nothing.
Li Muchan said: "In this case, it is better to find out clearly, otherwise it will be very uncomfortable if this thorn sticks all the time, right?"
"Junior brother, there is no need to say more. I believe Xiaoye will not lie to me." Xia Wufeng waved his hand.
Li Muchan smiled and said: "That being the case, let's forget that I didn't say it... I hope senior brother's wishes will come true and lovers will eventually get married!"
Xia Wufeng snorted and said: "You are such a long-winded guy. I watched your competition and you are very smart. You use your strengths and avoid your weaknesses!"
Li Muchan smiled and said, "Senior brother, you're so grateful!"
Xia Wufeng said: "I'm afraid that your cleverness will be mistaken for you, and you will be opportunistic and not study hard."
Li Muchan smiled and said: "With all the senior brothers and sisters in front of me, how can I dare to slack off!"
"What martial arts did the Lake Master teach you?" Xia Wufeng asked.
Perhaps because of the secret, Xia Wufeng felt that Li Muchan was somewhat friendly, as if he had been a friend for many years, and there was no sense of strangeness at all.
Li Muchan said: "Qi training in ancient times."
Xia Wufeng frowned: "Ancient Qi training?"
Li Muchan nodded: "What, is there something wrong?"
Xia Wufeng shook his head and looked Li Muchan up and down: "I didn't expect that, junior brother, you are so qualified to be able to teach ancient Qi training techniques!"
"Master also knows the ancient qi training technique?" Li Muchan asked.
Xia Wufeng nodded: "This is a magical technique that can lead to immortality. Unfortunately, I am not qualified enough to practice it."
"I'm just lucky." Li Muchan smiled and said sheepishly: "I live alone in the mountains, and I get scared every night. I slowly develop a habit of reciting Buddhist sutras to fall asleep... reciting the Diamond Sutra,
I'm not afraid, I don't have nightmares."
Xia Wufeng sighed: "You are also a miserable person."
He had heard about Li Muchan's life experience. Both his parents died when he was young. He lived alone in the mountains, living alone and struggling to survive. It was not easy for him to grow up so big.
Li Muchan smiled and said: "I didn't expect that I would get a blessing in disguise. Because chanting sutras strengthens my heart and concentrates my mind, it actually has the same purpose as practicing. I have gained some true meaning, so I can practice ancient qi training techniques."
Xia Wufeng said: "You must cherish it. I'm afraid there will be no other family like this in the world."
Li Muchan nodded and said with a smile: "This is natural. I want to know how senior brother can practice martial arts to such a state?"
Xia Wufeng smiled and said: "You are brave, you are the only one who asked me."
Li Muchan smiled and said, "You may feel embarrassed."
Xia Wufeng smiled and shook his head: "To be honest, I don't understand how you can reach such a state. It seems that just one night, everything suddenly became different, and all the martial arts moves became simple and clear.
, you can see through it at a glance.”
Li Muchan thought for a while, this was like a Buddhist epiphany, it was really beyond words.
He smiled and said, "Senior brother, you must have been greatly stimulated to become like this, right?"
Xia Wufeng smiled and said, "You really know everything!"
Li Muchan said: "I was trapped by love, and the world was turned upside down. So to be able to have such an epiphany, senior brother, your luck is really weird."
Xia Wufeng said: "It's like a sudden enlightenment. All the martial arts I learned before have become simple, just like children fighting, and they feel boring."
Li Muchan smiled and said: "Then senior brother, let's create a martial arts by ourselves."
Xia Wufeng was startled, thought for a while, and nodded slowly: "That's a good idea. These martial arts are boring, so create a set of interesting martial arts. What a good idea!"
Li Muchan said: "When did senior brother get promoted to the ninth rank?"
Xia Wufeng said: "It's been three years."
Li Muchan sighed: "I am still at the first level now. I don't know when I will become the ninth level. It is as difficult as climbing to the sky to become the ninth level. I still don't know if I can achieve it."
Xia Wufeng said: "When you practice ancient Qi training, it will be difficult at the beginning, but it will get faster later on. You will be a late bloomer, so you can't be anxious."
Li Muchan nodded. He heard this from a senior sister last time, and now he heard it again. It seems that ancient Qi training is really progressing slowly, and he can only wait until ten years to become a master.
