Chapter 74 Talking about Yujian, the strange Sansan layman
"Yeah." Xu Taiping nodded, "But Master Sansan will carve the content of his practice on a wooden board every day. The content is very detailed, and I have benefited a lot."
Xu Taiping still respects Sansan layman very much.
After hearing this, not only Xu Ziyan, but also Zhao Linglong felt a little weird this time.
"How many days has this layman Sansan taught you Taiping?"
Zhao Linglong asked seriously. ??
"It's been almost half a month since then."
Xu Taiping answered truthfully.
"Only half a month?"
Xu Ziyan held her forehead.
In his opinion, no matter how good the teacher Sansan was, or how talented Xu Taiping was, just half a month of sword-wielding practice was not even enough to make up for the situation in this competition.
"Junior brother, what did Elder Sansan teach you?"
Zhao Linglong looked at Xu Taiping with a serious face.
Rather than whether Xu Taiping could perform well in the Seven Peaks Competition, what she was more worried about at the moment was the inexplicable Sansan layman and whether he had taught her junior brother a bad lesson.
"On the first day, Master Sansan carved the secret formula for sword control on a wooden board and asked me to practice it on my own, and then asked me to try to use the sword to make sword marks on the cliff."
"In the next ten days, I repeated this thing almost every day."
Xu Taiping gave a brief reply.
"that's it?"
When Zhao Linglong heard this, she felt a little unbelievable and wished she could go back to Qifeng right away to discuss it with her unreliable father.
Xu Ziyan also frowned.
"Sounds very interesting."
When Lin Buyu heard this, he put away the script in his hand and showed strong interest.
"Yes, it is indeed interesting."
Xu Taiping smiled and nodded.
He was not speaking for Elder Sansan, but he really found it interesting, at least he himself was
enjoying the moment.
"That elder Sansan, how many sword marks did you want to make on that cliff in one day?"
Lin Buyu then asked Xu Taiping.
This question obviously gets to the point.
Zhao Linglong and Xu Ziyan also looked at Xu Taiping curiously.
"On the first day it was three thousand."
Xu Taiping thought for a while and replied.
"Three thousand?!"
Xu Ziyan and Zhao Linglong exclaimed in unison.
"On the first day you learn to wield a sword, you are asked to make three thousand sword marks on a hundred-foot-high cliff?"
Zhao Linglong felt more and more that these three lay people were a bit unreliable.
"Yes, it is indeed difficult for me to complete this task for the first time with my sword, so I..."
"So you're not done yet, right?"
Before Xu Taiping could speak, Zhao Linglong interrupted him angrily, and then said even more unfairly:
"Don't worry Taiping, it's normal if you can't finish it on the first day."
"It's really almost impossible to finish."
Xu Taiping nodded in approval.
"I almost couldn't finish it. In other words, you finished it?"
Xu Ziyan's eyes lit up.
"Um."
Xu Taiping nodded.
"Although I was busy until late at night, I finally finished it. Because I was worried that Elder Sansan would think that I was just trying to complete the task, I specially added a sword, a total of three thousand and one swords."
He continued.
"On the first day, you were able to draw the sword three thousand times with the sword control technique?"
Xu Ziyan and Zhao Linglong looked at each other, both of them looking in disbelief.
"Next
How many days will it take? Has Elder Sansan made any more requests to you?"
Zhao Linglong couldn't wait to know what happened next.
"In the next few days, I don't have any special requirements, but after that I will stab six hundred more swords every day. If I have enough time, I will go down the mountain early after stabbing."
Xu Taiping replied calmly.
He just thought he was exchanging sword practice skills with his fellow disciples. ??
He said it very easily, but Xu Ziyan and Zhao Linglong on the side became more and more frightened as they listened.
"But just four or five days ago, after I was able to stab six thousand swords in three hours, Elder Sansan gave me a new task."
Xu Taiping continued.
"What mission?"
Zhao Linglong asked again immediately.
"Yu Jian is carving words on the cliff, at least three thousand words every day."
Xu Taiping replied.
He practiced alone most of the time and rarely exchanged his cultivation experience with his fellow disciples, so he felt very fresh and answered questions very seriously.
At this time, Zhao Linglong couldn't sit still at all.
"Taiping, are you finished too?"
she asked with a surprised look on her face.
"It's done, but it will take a lot more time and there is no way to go home early."
Xu Taiping nodded and said.
Hearing this, Zhao Linglong and Xu Ziyan looked at each other again, and then both chose to remain silent.
"Is this speed of practice... too slow?"
Seeing the silence between the two of them, Xu Taiping thought that his performance had disappointed the two senior sisters.
He had no choice but to know very little about sword cultivation. He only learned how to carve sword marks and write from Master Sansan every day, so he didn't know much about the progress of a normal monk's practice.
But judging from the words that layman Sansan carved on the wooden board every day, he felt that his talent might be really average. Otherwise, Sansan
Lay people can't find so many faults?
"However, I feel that although it is a little slower, as long as I can write one more word, I can feel my progress. Therefore, I feel that the teaching method taught by Elder Sansan is very suitable for me."
He immediately added another sentence.
"It's not suitable for you, it's only suitable for you!"
Xu Ziyan answered with a bit of laughter and tears at this time.
"Why did Senior Sister Zi Yan say this?"
Xu Taiping was a little confused.
He thought everyone in Qingxuan Sect practiced swordsmanship like this.
"I'm afraid you don't know something, Taiping."
Zhao Linglong looked at Xu Taiping with some excitement and said:
"In Qingxuan Sect, when a disciple first practices the art of sword control, he will be considered successful if he can successfully control the sword within ten days and months. He will be considered successful if he can control the flying sword according to his own style in one month. Those who can freely control the flying sword to write will be considered successful.
, Unless you are a genius like Second Senior Brother, it will take at least three months, but Taiping only took you half a month!"
"We were silent for only half a month." Xu Ziyan looked at Lin Buyu with a smile.
"It's fourteen days." Lin Buyu corrected.
Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping was surprised at first, and then he said with suspicion: "Other senior brothers, it takes so long? But I think it's quite simple. Could it be because of Sansan's unnamed sword-wielding mentality?
Legal reasons?”
Putting this aside, he is very aware of his cultivation talent. Although it is not bad, it cannot be regarded as extraordinary talent. The reason why he was able to catch up with the cultivation progress of other disciples before was entirely due to time and gentian.
Treasures such as wine were piled up.
Therefore, in his opinion, there is only one possibility, that is, Master Sansan teaches better than others.
"The swordsmanship of Sansan layman is not inferior to that of Uncle Jiu..."
Xu Taiping suddenly remembered the evaluation of Master Sansan in the letter from the peak master, and instantly strengthened his suspicion.
