In fact, when the young swordsman Song Xun ran away in tears, the master of the Sword Sect had arrived not far from Meng Xi. Behind him, there were two people side by side, Jiao Xinchen and Meng Sangshan.
Meng Xi lowered his head and saluted. Facing the leader of the Sword Sect, who was the best swordsman in the world, he respected him from the bottom of his heart.
What's more, the current leader of the Sword Sect has actually done some things, and people have no reason not to respect him.
The leader of the Sword Sect waved towards Meng Xi. Meng Xi glanced at his master. After the latter nodded, Meng Xi slowly left.
After Meng Xi left, Meng Sangshan sighed with emotion and said with a smile, "It seems that it won't be long before this kid is going to scare the whole world."
Jiao Xinchen nodded, extremely satisfied with himself as his apprentice, and also very grateful to himself as his good friend.
The leader of the Sword Sect turned around, looked at Jiao Xinchen, and asked, "How is Qingshan?"
Jiao Xinchen actually didn't quite understand why the sect master was so interested in Zhou Qingshan. After all, he was not of a high level and had ordinary talents. Even if he was the sect master's nephew, he shouldn't be like this according to the sect master's nature.
However, Jiao Xinchen quickly came to his senses and said softly, "I have received two letters these days, one is from Junior Brother Yu who went to the North, and the other is from the General's Mansion in the North of Daliang.
"
The leader of the Sword Sect didn't say anything, he just looked at Jiao Xinchen like this.
Jiao Xinchen continued, "Junior brother Yu said in the letter that the demon clan invaded south again and broke through several passes in front of the Great Wall in the north. Twenty-three Jianzong disciples died on those city walls. Among them, senior brother Zhou, was at Jingshan Pass.
Die in battle."
"The content of the letter from the General's Mansion is similar. It just says that those passes have been occupied by the demon clan, and the bones of our Sword Sect disciples cannot be brought back. If there is a chance in the future, we will look for them again. In addition, for us twenty
The general's office said that the three Jianzong disciples will be compensated together according to the court's practice. If the Jianzong doesn't want the heavenly money, Daliang will convert it into something else."
Jiao Xinchen also felt a little heavy. He read the names of the twenty-three people and found that there were several guys among them who had a good relationship with him, but he didn't expect that the last time they saw each other they would be separated forever.
"Retrieve the bones. Those people can't even take back the body of their own robes, so why are they looking for anything else? Disciples of the Sword Sect, it doesn't matter who they die, they don't care about trivial matters."
The head of Jianzong glanced at Jiao Xinchen and asked, "Did the letter say anything about Qing?"
How many monsters did Shan kill before he died?"
Jiao Xinchen shook his head and said, "Several passes have been lost, so the details of that battle are naturally unknown."
The leader of the Sword Sect nodded, it was his negligence.
After a moment of silence, the Sword Sect leader said, "Don't tell anyone about this for now, especially Song Xun."
Jiao Xinchen nodded. Although they were not familiar with Zhou Qingshan, they were members of the same sect after all, and they had the relationship of being disciples, so it should be like this.
The leader of the Sword Sect asked, "How many sword cultivators are there now in the Sword Sect who have gone to the north?"
This is the responsibility of Meng Sangshan. When the leader of the Sword Sect asked, he immediately said, "One hundred and three people, including two sword immortals and more than thirty from the other side."
The leader of the Sword Sect nodded and suddenly said, "I intend to build another hall next to the hall dedicated to the ancestors of past dynasties. All the sword cultivators who died in the battle in the North, regardless of their level, will have their spiritual tablets erected in that hall. The disciples who went up the mountain later will
, in addition to worshiping the Patriarch’s Hall, we must also worship this new temple.”
Jiao Xinchen and Meng Sangshan looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other's eyes, so they thought about it and said, "Sect Master, for such a big matter, should we discuss it in the mountains before making a decision?"
The leader of the Sword Sect shook his head and said, "I have made up my mind. You two will arrange this matter and complete the hall as soon as possible. From now on, let Min Rang be responsible for everything."
Min Rang was one of the sword immortals of the Sword Sect. Before he went up the mountain, this sword immortal had been in charge of sacrifices for the royal family for generations.
Jiao Xinchen and Meng Sangshan wanted to say something more, but the master of the Sword Sect had gone away alone, leaving only one sentence, wandering around the Sword Sect.
"Monks in this world owe the world too much."
…
…
After the Sword Sect leader left, Jiao Xinchen and Meng Sangshan looked at each other. They each found a place to sit down, and were somewhat silent. Neither one spoke first.
The two of them have a close friendship. It can be said that any little thoughts of the other can't be hidden from the other. At this moment, both of them are silent. In fact, they both have a problem.

Sangshan was silent for a long time and then spoke first, "Old Jiao, I always feel that what the sect leader is doing now is probably not for his sword heart."
Jiao Xinchen was not in a hurry to speak, and just nodded lightly.
In fact, the path of swordsmanship of the master of the sword sect has been the focus of all the swordsmen of the sword sect from the beginning. After all, even if they cannot learn anything from the other person's path of swordsmanship, they are willing to pay more attention to it.
Some things really happened before their eyes. At first, the master of the Sword Sect was focused on practicing swordsmanship, and nothing could distract him except the way of swordsmanship. Later, the infatuated master of the temple was used as an excuse to watch the Taoist ancestor's sword.
The leader of the Sword Sect walked out of the Sword Sect and went to see His Majesty the Emperor.
The details of the battle at that time are still unknown today, but we can probably guess that the reason why the sect leader was able to fully understand that perfect sword was because Emperor Daliang gave some advice to the sect leader of the Sword Sect in the capital city.
Judging from what the Sword Sect leader has done these days, they can actually guess the words.
But there is a reason for doing things. The things the Sword Sect leader did before may have been done for kendo, but in their opinion, the things they do now have nothing to do with kendo.
Just start from your heart.
"The sect leader has changed after all."
Jiao Xinchen spoke calmly, but after saying these words, the swordsman was shocked by what he said.
The great monks in the world may have different experiences and different opportunities, but when they reach high places in the world, they actually have one thing in common.
That is, these great monks have always been mentally tough people. No matter what they are, it is difficult for anything in this life to change them.
It's like the original Wu Hao master has reached that state, but he still can't rest assured that he will return no matter what.
If such a great monk insists on something for a long time, once it changes, it will actually mean the collapse of his Taoist heart. But the current leader of the Sword Sect is more like waking up from a dream.
Meng Sangshan said, "Before Junior Brother Chen went to the northern border, I asked him why he wanted to go to such a dangerous place because he couldn't live a good life and cultivate."
"How does Junior Brother Chen answer?"
Jiao Xinchen was also a little curious.
Meng Sangshan was silent for a moment and said softly, "Junior Brother Chen said that after sitting in the sword sect for eighty years, he has learned a sword fairyland, but it is not as good as eighty years ago when he learned the first sword and chopped down a weed with one sword."
Pleasant."
"So Junior Brother Chen said he wanted to go north to see if he could find Ruyi there."
Jiao Xinchen said, "If the current situation in the north continues, I'm afraid Junior Brother Chen will die there soon."
Meng Sangshan nodded, but then shook his head and said, "If Junior Brother Chen can finally find his own happiness, he will have nothing to fear or regret as long as he dies."
Jiao Xinchen was silent for a long time.
Meng Sangshan suddenly frowned and said, "Lao Jiao, you still have a disciple here!"
As a good friend, how could he not know what Jiao Xinchen was thinking?
"Before, I have been wondering why Xiaoyu was able to get to that point despite being so careless in practicing swordsmanship. I have speculated a lot, but I don't want to guess now. The ancestor has already said this kind of thing. There are thousands of swordsmanship and countless phenomena. I
Just go your own way. Now I just want to go north and see, for no other reason than to be curious about how those people survive like this year after year. As for Meng Xi, you are his elder, you
Take care of me for a while."
Jiao Xinchen made his decision quickly and did not give Meng Sangshan a chance to persuade him again.
"I will go to bid farewell to the sect leader immediately."
But Meng Sangshan stood up and stopped Jiao Xinchen, "Old Jiao, there is nothing I can't do without in this life, but I can't live without you as a friend. Since you have decided to go, I will go there too, not for others, but for you."
Jiao Xinchen!”
Jiao Xinchen didn't say much, just nodded and said, "Okay."
Meng Sangshan suddenly patted Jiao Xinchen and said with a smile, "Old Jiao, you found a reason to lie to others that you can't even convince yourself of. Is it interesting?"
Jiao Xinchen didn't refute, just said, "I really want to see it."
But I don’t just want to see it.
"Last month, I actually wrote 180,000 words, 6,000 words per day. When there are two chapters, it is 3,000 per chapter, and when it is one chapter, it is 6,000 per chapter. This month, I wrote 200,000 words, but today's chapter is a bit short.
