The sword master raised his head, stared at the plaque full of sword meaning, and said slightly: "Are you saying that this is the place where the nameless people live in seclusion?"
"Exactly." Li Xiao nodded and said unequivocally.
In the past ten years, Li Xiao has not only relied on predicting plots to deceive others. In terms of intelligence, he has also worked hard and spent a lot of money on asking people to go around to find out information, including the traces of many people.
Including this Chinese Pavilion, which is the restaurant opened by Wu Ming.
Upon hearing this, the Sword Master couldn't wait to walk into the restaurant, and Li Xiao also hurriedly followed.
"What do you two gentlemen want to eat?" At this time, a waiter came towards me. He had a broad face and a hooked nose. From the steps of his feet to the aura emanating from his gestures, he was obviously a warrior, probably at the innate level.
, that lame deliberate concealment, of course cannot escape the eyes of the sword master.
"I'm looking for the manager of your restaurant!" The sword master said in a deep voice, straight to the point.
"Sorry, our shopkeeper is not in the store. We are willing to help with anything." The waiter said with a smile on his face.
"I'll say it again, the Sword Master is here for a visit, so please come out and see him!"
The sword master glanced around the restaurant and emphasized his tone. He could feel that there was a fierce sword intent in the hotel. Although the sharp edge was restrained, it was still very powerful.
Strong! So based on this, he could conclude that Wuming must be in the restaurant.
Hearing the Sword Master's arrogant tone, the waiter's eyes flashed with anger and he was very unhappy. Before he came to Zhonghua Pavilion, he was also a member of the world, and he could not stand the Sword Master's bossy words. Just when he was about to refute.
Behind the restaurant, there was suddenly a melancholy and melodious erhu sound. The music was quiet and had a profound artistic conception. It seemed to be close to my ears, but when I listened carefully, it seemed to be far away and erratic.
It's time to play.
A door at the back of the restaurant opened by itself without any wind.
"Everyone who comes here is a guest. You two are invited to come to the backyard for a chat!"
Li Xiao and Juggernaut looked at each other and walked towards the backyard of the restaurant together. This time the waiter did not block the way again.
…
The backyard is dotted with willow trees, rockery, flowers and plants, and the scenery is full of scenery.
There is a stone table and three stone benches in the courtyard.
There is a person sitting on one of the stone benches. His face is strong and his eyes are slightly closed. He is playing a piece of music on the erhu in his hand. The artistic conception is ethereal, but there is a melancholy atmosphere in the charm.
After a long while, the song ended, and Wuming finally slowly opened his eyes.
The moment the Sword Master saw Wuming, his cloudy and gray pupils finally showed a hint of excitement: "Wuming, I haven't seen you for decades, how are you?"
"Long time no see." Wuming nodded and smiled faintly at the Sword Master. When he saw Li Xiao, a hint of surprise flashed through his eyes.
Wuming put down his erhu, stood up, and poured wine into the three cups on the stone table: "Here, have some drinks."
Wuming's expression was calm and indifferent, as if he was entertaining a close friend, and he didn't even ask why the two of them were here.
…
"Okay, thank you, senior." Li Xiao was not polite at all. He sat down, picked up the wine glass, drank it all in one gulp, drank it into his mouth, and tasted it. The wine was like rain, more sweet and less spicy.
The taste is very good: "Not bad, good wine, good wine."
Li Xiao's main purpose this time was to be entrusted by the Sword Master to take him to the Chinese Pavilion to find Wuming. Now that his mission is completed, he is naturally relaxed!
What he is looking forward to now is what kind of sparks will arise when the Sword Master and Wuming, two peerless masters who are even more powerful than Xiongba, meet again.
The sword master narrowed his eyes slightly, flicked his finger, and a sword energy came out from his finger, shooting out of the long string of wine poured from the hole in the wine bottle in Wuming's hand, but the next moment, his eyes were filled with
There was a look of shock, because the string of wine was not interrupted and disintegrated by the sword energy. It was connected into a curtain and was not affected at all!
"Wu Ming, you have indeed reached the realm of Heavenly Sword!"
"Have a drink." Wuming greeted.
The sword master shook his head and said: "The key to practicing swordsmanship is to be pure and abstain from desire. I have quit drinking for many years." After saying that, his face turned pale, he coughed heavily, and his body swayed slightly, appearing
Very weak, as if he would collapse at any time.
Seeing this situation, Wuming frowned slightly: "Sword Master, your body is already so weak and your life span is about to end. It's like a broken lamp, slowly heading towards death."
After hearing this, Li Xiao looked at the gloomy-looking Sword Master and felt the same way.
On the way here, Li Xiao had noticed the signs from the weak leg strength of the Sword Master. Over the years, the Sword Master is still practicing swordsmanship forcibly at such an old age. The overdraft on the body is huge, which has also accelerated the
The sword master's body has declined, and he is now at the end of his strength.
If it weren't for the thought of seeing Wuming supporting him, Li Xiao even doubted whether he could have made it this far.
…
"Thirty years ago, my Holy Spirit Sword Technique was already comparable to Sword Twenty-Two, but over the years, no matter how hard I try, I haven't made any progress, and my cultivation has entered a bottleneck period. Today I want to fight you again,
Perhaps, only by fighting with you can I have a chance to survive and break through to the highest realm of sword art! If I can do this, I will die without regrets!"
The sword master trembled excitedly and said, while he was determined in his heart, his fingers were tapping wildly on his body. With a low voice, he forcibly activated his muscles and bones and reversed his meridians. The aura of his old age was suddenly shaken, and his expression changed.
A hint of flush appears, radiating vitality.
The Sword Master stood proudly, although he did not have a sword in his hand. But at this time, driven by the endless sword intent, he himself was like an arrogant and sharp sword, exuding a terrifying and killing sword intent, achieving the unity of man and sword.
realm!
"laugh!"
The sword master raised his hand, and a sword energy slashed along his fingers!
Wuming's mind froze and he turned slightly. The cold sword energy grazed Wuming's clothes and directly split the willow tree behind him in half from top to bottom. It exploded with sawdust and broken leaves.
Scattered in all directions.
"Brother Dugu, why are you doing this...that's all, since you insist on doing this, then Wuming should accompany you."
Wuming had already retired from the world, but he and the Sword Master were not only rivals and competitors, but also shared the sympathy of heroes. Inspired by the Sword Master, a trace of fighting spirit in his heart was ready to move. He turned his palms and rubbed two green streaks.
With his sword energy, he jumped up and immediately started a fierce fight with the Sword Master!
When Li Xiao saw this, he knew in his heart that a shocking battle was about to begin.
