Kunlun one millet

Chapter 185 Guarding the Silence Royal Sword

Zhang Duanjing sat in the Baopu Pavilion on the back hill of the pavilion, caressing a five-foot-long Lushui fir in front of him, the surface of the wood was black and had a purple luster.With a flick of fingers, the sound of bells and lulls rang out, crisp and melodious.

"What is this? Is Zhao Mi going to give a bride price to the little Taoist couple?" A white-haired old man came to him with a cane, his expression unrestrained, and he asked with a smile.

Zhang Duanjing's expression was indifferent: "Zhao Mi deserves to repay the kindness of saving someone's life."

"Once and a while, this feeling will be there." The white-haired old man shook his head and said with emotion: "It's a pity that Zhao Mi was taught by you to be a stupid ass who doesn't know how to adapt. You don't have to deliberately avoid love between men and women. Don't abuse, tranquility and nourishment are the most important. In the end, you are lucky, I don't know what kind of medicine you have taken, and the master and apprentice are holding back and refuse to let go. How can this be a cultivator who is considerate and free?"

"You are very clear, why bother to be sarcastic." Zhang Duanjing closed his eyes and said, "What I want to do, I will risk all the power of heaven and earth. If I have relatives, I will only cause trouble. Zhao Mi also understands this truth, only the heart is as firm as iron, Only then can you experience torture. Indulging in love and lust, and ultimately harming others and yourself, is really unnecessary."

The white-haired old man laughed: "That's what you said, but when it comes to doing things, I don't mind dragging my junior brother into the water."

"You and I came from Yunyan Peak, and now you are the only one who has obtained the true inheritance." Zhang Duanjing looked relieved: "There are some things, not that others can't trust, but just lack of ability."

"Are you praising me?" The white-haired old man laughed loudly: "It's rare, a senior brother who has not lost his words will actually praise others."

Facing the sarcasm, Zhang Duanjing was not angry. Seeing that he couldn't be teased, the white-haired old man had to ask: "Since you said that Yunyan Peak was inherited, why didn't you pass on the "Jade Cauldron Liuxia Chapter" to Zhao Shu?" "Chapter" is refined, but it is limited to before conjugating a fetal immortal. With Zhao Shu's aptitude, you don't want him to be unable to make progress, do you?"

"Shuyue Wuzang Pian" is just right for him to praise the official family. His cultivation level in the past was still shallow, so naturally he needs to lay a solid foundation." Zhang Duanjing replied.

The white-haired old man said: "But I saw him sitting facing the wall, exhaling true energy, and sometimes forming seals to transform into shapes. This is the immortal method of Chongxuan Hall. Liang Guoshi took the first step, and you are so willing?"

"There is no distinction between right and wrong in fairy arts. Zhao Mi's practice of Chongxuan Hall's immortal arts does not mean that he has respect for Liang Tao." Zhang Duanjing said: "And only in this way can Zhao Mi gain Liang Tao's trust."

"You are playing with fire." The white-haired old man's eyes implied speculation: "It's just that I didn't expect that you protected Zhao Mi so well in the past, but now you are willing to let him go and put him in the jaws of a tiger?"

"Today's Zhao Mi is not comparable to the past." Zhang Duanjing paused: "I am not static."

The white-haired old man asked again: "But Zhao Mi wants to face Liang Tao in person, aren't you afraid that the National Teacher will kill Zhao Mi directly after the matter is completed?"

"I'm already making preparations, I just want to be safe." Zhang Duanjing said, "And you underestimated Zhao Mi, he already guessed about my dealings with Chi Yundu."

The white-haired old man opened his eyes wide in surprise: "Is this really true?"

Zhang Duanjing nodded slowly: "I guess when he was in Jianjia Pass, he had contacts with Chi Yun, and even met the three elders in person."

The white-haired old man twitched his beard and smiled, "Maybe the third elder came to the door on his own initiative, and your apprentice seems to be quite appetizing to them."

Zhang Duanjing took out a seven-color clam with pearls: "Go to Cangwu Ridge and give this photograph to the three elders."

"What did you toss about again?" The white-haired old man took the colorful clam and looked it back and forth.

"Within five thousand miles, I can use this device to discuss and communicate with the three elders of Chiyun." Zhang Duanjing said calmly.

The white-haired old man chuckled: "It's amazing, with this one, it's far better than those guys in Chongxuan Pavilion who grind mirrors all day long."

Zhang Duanjing was not at all pleased with the compliments: "The mirror of the Four Rules is not only used to transmit images and sounds, but also assists in cultivation and reveals ghosts and gods. Liang Tao simplified and refined the Great Ming Mirror, which shows his cultivation level."

"So you think you can't kill Liang Tao with the divine sword alone?"

"In the battle of Jianjiaguan, Ningzhen insisted on saving Zhao Mi, but he was still taken away by Liang Tao." Zhang Duanjing said: "The cultivation level is like Liang Tao's generation, and it is difficult to kill with ordinary means. The divine sword is to restrain the immortal body , but the premise is to trap Liang Tao in one place."

The white-haired old man shook his head: "How could Liang Tao be trapped so easily? Fengju Ten Witches and the Nantu Gods worked together to set up an enchantment, but they barely kept him for a while, and the result was the remaining Fengju Ten Witches. They were all killed, even the demon king horned beetle was cut off. Tsk tsk, this guy is so fierce, looking at Kunlun Continent, I am afraid no one can stop him."

"So let him take the initiative to trap himself." Zhang Duanjing looked solemn.

"Then you are going to waste your brains." The white-haired old man was about to leave, and said: "By the way, you should be careful when you go to see the little girl, the Excalibur's hostility is invading her sanity more and more."

……

Zhang Duanjing came to the cave in the mountain, and the dome was dotted with faint lights, like a man-made night starry sky.

In the quiet cave, the sword energy roared like the wind. Zhang Duanjing concentrated on it without any killing intent. He raised his feet and walked in the strong wind. Although his clothes fluttered, they were very slow, out of tune with the surrounding wind.

Suddenly, a majestic sword energy filled all corners of the cave like a rushing river, and rushed towards Zhang Duanjing.

Facing the sword energy that could shatter his body to pieces, Zhang Duanjing stood still, closed his eyes with his hands behind his back, breathed for a moment, and forgot everything. lossless.

The sword energy passed through, and the cave returned to silence. Zhang Duanjing was like waking up from a big dream. He opened his eyes and looked at the darkness in the distance: "I named the divine sword 'Shou Ji', and I hope you realize that the sharpness of the divine sword does not lie in how powerful it is. Fierce. In order to be able to control the aura of calamity and violence, one must always guard against emptiness, otherwise he will be harmed by the sharpness of the divine sword."

As soon as the words fell, a figure flew towards Zhang Duanjing's throat.

"I don't need sword energy, I can still kill you!" The Nuo-faced swordsman shouted coldly: "In the end, you are just afraid that you will be restrained by the divine sword, and you will leave yourself a retreat when you forge the sword."

"No." Zhang Duanjing said clearly: "Excalibur is not extraordinary iron, some can be hurt and some can't be hurt. When I practiced the Excalibur, I never thought of using it to indiscriminately kill. I wish so, when I don't With the intent to kill and guarding the emptiness within, the sharpness of the divine sword has nowhere to add to the body."

"Swords are used to kill people!" Nuo-faced swordsman retorted, "Why are you doing so many unnecessary things?"

"I don't want the person holding the sword to harm his own life." Zhang Duanjing replied: "Shouji Sword, as its name suggests, is not only a warning to the person holding the sword, but also a real warning to ghosts and gods. Immortals keep their lives quiet and free; Ghosts and gods keep quiet, Yin and Yang are at peace."

"These things have nothing to do with me!" The Nuo-faced swordsman questioned, "If I hadn't arrived in time, Ah Mi would have been killed by the big snake! Is there any use for the great principles you said?"

"I refine this sword for future generations." Zhang Duanjing said.

"Shut up!" the Nuo-faced swordsman yelled, the broken rocks fell from the dome above, and the whole cave trembled slightly.

"I don't want thousands of generations, I just want the safety of Ami!" The Nuo-faced swordsman withdrew his hand and drew his sword, took off his mask, revealing a delicate and determined face, with two lines of tears flowing from the corners of his eyes.

"I know." Zhang Duanjing bowed his head and lowered his eyes: "But I don't want Zhao Mi to be under the protection of the elders forever. Cultivation is not only about sitting in meditation and retreating to face the wall. Zhao Mi should experience and sharpen. I hope he Achievement."

"You are just the head of a restaurant, why do you control Zhao Mi's life?" The Nuo-faced swordsman scolded unceremoniously: "It's not enough to kill Ziliang, but you have to use Zhao Mi to fulfill your shit wish, You and Liang Tao are just like raccoons!"

Zhang Duanjing's head was lowered even lower, as if a great burden had been borne on his back, he was no longer upright.Even though he tried his best to hide it, there was still a look of frustration on his face.

"Now we still need Zhao Mi to come forward." Zhang Duanjing said with a strong support: "Only Zhao Mi continues to assist in arranging the ritual ceremony, and finally there is a way to kill Liang Tao. You have seen his ability. If he loses to the Excalibur The edge can be avoided at any time, and the trouble will be even worse when the time comes."

"In that case, why were you led out of Jianjia Pass by the enemy?" the Nuo-faced swordsman asked angrily.

"I will make mistakes too." Zhang Duanjing murmured.

"No!" The Nuo-faced swordsman wiped away his tears, and said in a cold tone, "You are incompetent!"

After saying this, the swordsman turned and left, escaping into the darkness again, leaving Zhang Duanjing standing alone.

……

Zhao Mi took a boat to the blessed land of Shixi outside the city. Looking at the lush vegetation, Jiang Ru didn't think much about taking care of the place.

This manor originally belonged to the Zheng family of Jiujiang, but Zhao Mi himself rarely came here.But now that Lu Wangji was still injured, Zhao Mi settled her here, taking advantage of the blessed land to preserve her vitality.

Considering that he has no official duties at the moment, Zhao Mi simply moved to Shixi Fudi, so as not to show his face and cause unnecessary extra trouble.

"Friend Lu is at the Wangbo Pavilion on the west side." Zhao Shushe boarded the boat and saw Jiang Ru waiting on the shore.

"How is Fellow Daoist Lu's injury?" Zhao Mi held the wood for making the piano that he had just obtained from the teacher, and watched the servants move other things into the manor one by one.

"Daily actions are fine." Jiang Ru said: "But from her appearance, she should not be able to use mana, and the internal trauma is obviously not healed."

Zhao Mi was still in deep thought, Jiang Ru whispered, "I want to ask you one thing...can you give Lu Wangji that Shenke Xianguo?"

"I think so too." Zhao Mi asked, "It's just why you have such a plan?"

Jiang Ru smiled slightly: "At the beginning I was seriously injured by the Cangshui River, and then it was Lu Wangji who took care of me. I always felt that I should repay her, but I couldn't do it."

Zhao Mi raised his chin slightly, indicating the direction of the manor: "The fairy fruit you returned to me is placed in the manor, and you can use it if you want."

"It's yours after all, I can't use it without authorization," Jiang Ru said.

Zhao Mi smiled, and took out a jade box from the bamboo box: "I forgot to tell you, I got another Shenke fairy fruit."

Jiang Ru's expression was slightly surprised, but she immediately understood: "Is it the Lord who rewarded you?"

"Yes." Zhao Mi said with a smile, "Anyway, there are many, so it's no big deal to send one to Lu Wangji."

Seeing Zhao Mi's white hair on the sideburns, Jiang Ru pursed her lips and said, "What's the big deal, you need it more."

Zhao Mi shook his head: "The medicine is not right for the disease. The effect of Shenke Xianguo is to protect the vital Qi channels and help to regulate and heal. The injury I suffered before has already healed, and the current appearance is caused by the practice. No panacea will work. , can only rely on hard work.”

The servants moved all kinds of daily necessities into the manor, and Zhao Mi sent them back.This Shixi Paradise does not leave ordinary customs, and Zhao Shu does not need servants to take care of him. There are only three people in the entire Shixi Paradise, Zhao Shu, Jiang Ru, and Lu Wangji.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, please take a look." Zhao Mi came to the Wangbo Pavilion and handed out the piece of wood for making the piano.

"Gloomy wood?" Lu Wangji could tell the material of the wood at a glance.

"The Lushui is gloomy and heavy with cedars." Zhao Mi explained: "This tree was found by the Eastern Qin musicians at the source of the Lushui River in Boya Mountain two hundred years ago. This tree was buried deep in the bottom of springs and rocks for an unknown number of years, and it was full of fresh air. Tempered and infiltrated by spring water for a long time, the wood is similar to jade. If you listen carefully, you can also feel the sound of spring flowing in the wood, which is very mysterious."

Lu Wangji raised his hand to touch the wood, his slender fingers seemed to be plucking the strings, hooking or rubbing along the grain of the wood, even though there were no strings, Zhao Shu could faintly hear the sound of the piano, which even surprised him.

"It's really a good material." Lu Wangji nodded in approval.

Jiang Ru asked from the side, "Where did you get such a fine piece of wood?"

"This piece of wood was not made into a musical instrument at that time, and it was kept in the Huaiying Pavilion after several twists and turns." Zhao Mi spread his hands together: "But there are very few people who are proficient in music theory in the Huaiying Pavilion. I made a wooden sword, but found that the physical properties were inconsistent. After comparing it, I found that it can only be used for making pianos, and it was left in the warehouse for a long time without anyone paying attention."

Lu Wangji said, "This is from the Huaiying Pavilion, and I should not use it."

Zhao Mi smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about it, Fellow Daoist Lu. The teacher told me that you, Fellow Daoist Lu, didn't care about the dangers when you were in Jianjia Pass. You rescued me. Returning a piece of qin wood is not enough to express my gratitude. What's more, this thing Leaving it to those who don't know the goods is also a waste of things, so it's better to let Fellow Daoist Lu dispose of them, just make the best use of them, so as to resonate the sound of mountains and rivers."

Lu Wangji remained silent, his face was covered by a veil, so no expression could be seen.

"By the way, I have a fairy fruit here, which is just suitable for fellow Taoists to heal the wounded." Zhao Mi took the opportunity to take out the fairy fruit of Shenke again: "When taking it, dissolve it into clean water, and its medicinal power can melt into the hundred veins by itself." , protecting vitality and cultivating true energy is a rare holy thing.”

"Fellow Daoist gave too much." Lu Wangji seemed shocked beyond words.

Zhao Mi got up and bowed: "Don't hide it from fellow Taoists, this is the ceremony of worshiping a master and concluding cultivation. I have longed for the wonderful method taught by Fengminggu, and I beg fellow Taoists to teach me."

"Marquis Zhenming wants to learn, all he has to do is say a word, there is no need to be so generous." Lu Wangji shook his head.
