Chapter 8: Draw the sword

After leaving from Wujiu, Shen Kuang went to Yunmeng Mountain with a feeling of apprehension! He still hasn't forgotten the meaningful smile on Senior Han's lips when he left!

All the way to the foot of Yunmeng Mountain, he slowly encountered some sparse figures.

On the road, many women wearing the same clothes could be seen walking up the mountain in twos and threes. It didn’t take much thinking to know that they were all disciples of the Yunmeng Sword Sect. Because they were all in the same direction, when he appeared in everyone's field of vision, he inevitably attracted the attention of the people around him.

the Sword Sect disciples were surprised that a man appeared here. Shen Kuang was a little embarrassed and could only scratch his head and smile. He was good-looking, and his smile was even more refreshing, so when those disciples saw his smile, a blush suddenly appeared on their faces and they quickly ran away.

He originally wanted to go up and say hello, after all, this was someone else's territory. But as soon as he raised his hand , he saw those disciples running away quickly as if they had seen something terrible. He frowned, very puzzled. He first looked down at himself, then turned around and looked around, as if nothing had changed.

Just like that, after walking up the mountain curiously, the first thing that caught his eye was a huge square. In the center of the square stood a giant stone sword, descending from the sky like a god. On the sword, the word "cloud" was engraved majestically.

Just watching from a distance, he felt the cold sword intention coming from the stone sword . It was an invisible sword energy. Although it was powerful, it had no killing intent. It was more like a kind of affection for the spectators themselves. Cleaning and carving.

He closed his eyes slightly unconsciously, and slowly, a figure seemed to appear in his mind. The figure was dancing a sword, and the sword in his hand happened to have the word "cloud" on it .

For Shen Kuang, this was a feeling he had never experienced before when his master taught him how to practice swordsmanship. This feeling was strange but also wonderful.

After a while, he was still immersed in that environment alone. He felt that the figure seemed to be teaching him swordsmanship. Because the figures were not dancing randomly , the opening and closing, each move seemed to be vaguely related, but he couldn't tell what the specific connection was.

Just like that, not long after, many disciples of the Yunmeng Sword Sect gathered in the square. They found a young man standing in front of the sword viewing platform, his eyes closed and motionless!

What was strange to them was not only his behavior, but what was even more strange was why a young man suddenly appeared on Yunmeng Mountain. Could he be the new disciple of some uncle?

Ciyin, who was about to go down the mountain after lunch, also saw Shen Kuang in the square. Ciyin looked up and down . He was dressed in black, carrying a small baggage on his back, and holding a sword in his hand. He was standing watching the sword. There was no movement in front of the stage.

She was not curious about Shen Kuang's appearance at the moment, because she knew that he was observing the sword, and the stone sword on the sword viewing field was considered one of the sect's most valuable treasures. There is an extremely powerful sword intent on the stone sword , which is the product of the sect's disciples accumulating and practicing here for thousands of years. When observing swords, what you observe is the sword intent of the seniors!

Before she practiced swordsmanship, she had watched swords in the sword viewing field, and she looked just like him.

If it were just an ordinary person, he would not be able to feel the sword intention on the stone sword. People who practice martial arts can fall into trance after observing a sword for the first time . It seems that only their junior sister in their generation has done this.

As a senior sister, Ciyin did not just stand around like other junior sisters. She knew that Shen Kuang was not a new disciple accepted by any of her uncles, because Yunmeng Mountain never accepted male disciples . Although she felt that Shen Kuang probably could n't learn any swordsmanship from the stone sword, she still couldn't stand such an upright act of stealing from his master.

So she walked up to Shen Kuang and slowly said, "Your Excellency, you must not be here just to steal a master from our Yunmeng Sword Sect!"

Ciyin's voice was not loud, but she also used some internal energy. The purpose was naturally to remind Shen Kuang.

Shen Kuang was still immersed in that wonderful situation, when suddenly a deep voice came from his ears. He knew that the person speaking had used his inner strength to tell him deliberately, so he slowly opened his eyes.

At this moment, he suddenly discovered that a group of disciples from the Yunmeng Sword Sect had gathered around him. The woman who spoke was not far from him at the moment and was staring at him closely.

Judging from the other party's appearance, he should be one or two years older than him, so he cupped his fists and raised his hands, respectfully calling out, "Senior Sister!"

Ci Yin kept frowning at Shen Kuang, with a bit of caution and unkindness in her eyes. Suddenly I heard him call me Senior Sister, and the confusion on my brows became even deeper.

Shen Kuang was naturally not a bad person, so after seeing Ci Yin's puzzled look, he quickly stated his purpose.

"Your Excellency, you have misunderstood . You are sinking ! You are not here to steal your master, but you are here to pay homage to Senior Yun Qingyou at Yunmeng Mountain on the order of your master!"

After knowing that he was here to find someone and not to steal a teacher, Ciyin's tone softened slightly and he was no longer wary of the other party. "Do you have anything to do with Uncle Yun?"

"My master has something, and he ordered me to hand it over to Senior Yun, so I have to trouble my senior sister to report it on my behalf!" Shen Kuang saw the change in the other party's expression, so he was still very polite at this moment. It was also said in a flawless manner.

Ciyin knew better than to ask more about the specific matters . They were not qualified to know about the uncles' matters yet, so she just said, "Then just wait here for a while, and I will go and report!"

After that, he scolded the other disciples who were watching and asked them to practice their swords individually, and then left. Although the people around him slowly dispersed, their eyes still glanced here from time to time, and Shen Kuang greeted them one by one without hesitation.

"Hello, Senior Sister!"

"Hello, Senior Sister!"

After the greetings, he felt relieved and let out a long breath. After meeting the senior and handing the jade pendant to him, the purpose of this trip would be almost achieved. As for the marriage proposal, he had to see the other party's attitude first. If he was friendly, he would mention it. He had no hope of success, and he didn't want to be able to propose marriage. Compared with marriage proposal, he liked the sword in his hand more.

After waiting for a while, seeing no one coming, he found an empty space, crossed his legs, and began to meditate. The wonderful experience just now also brought him a lot of benefits, so now he wanted to integrate it and slowly comprehend it later.

After a while, Ciyin came back. It's just that the person he brought over was not Senior Yun Qingyou , but the seventh lady from the General's Mansion whom he had just met in the morning !

After waiting for a long time, when he saw Ci Yin's figure again, the anxiety in his heart suddenly increased a lot, just like the nervousness before a disaster. However, when he saw the person next to Ciyin , he suddenly felt a little surprised and stunned.

"Isn't that the seventh lady from the morning? Could it be that she is senior Yun Qingyou?" He murmured to himself in his heart.

The seventh lady was still dressed in white as she had been in the morning, but now she took off her veil, revealing her face. It was indeed as Shigure said, very beautiful. However, the look she looked at Shen Kuang was cold and very unkind.

He originally wanted to step forward and explain the purpose of his visit to the other party, and then ask about the other party's identity to confirm it. But before he could speak, the silent seventh lady suddenly slowly raised her sword and pointed it at him. Her eyes were dim , as black as paint, and her eyes were so cold that it made people shudder!

"Master asked me to kill you!"

Nan Qiao's tone was cold and his expression was indifferent! With just this simple sentence, the atmosphere in the sword watching field suddenly became a bit colder. At this moment, the blowing breeze can't help but feel a little more chilling!

Shen Kuang didn't understand the meaning of her words for a while.

"Master? In this case, her master is Senior Yun Qingyou, so it makes sense." Thinking of this, he was shocked. In this case, the person the master mentioned to propose marriage to was the seventh lady in front of him. Already? Therefore, Shen Kuang immediately made sure to hand over the jade pendant and leave without even talking about the marriage proposal. But at this moment, he was still wondering, why did senior Yun Qingyou want to kill him in the first place? "

"Draw out your sword!" Nan Qiao said coldly without giving Shen Kuang much time to think.

The other disciples in the sword-watching field had already stopped practicing and were all looking over. Only now did they know that this young man was not a new disciple of any uncle, and he seemed to have some grudges with the younger junior sister's master.

Shen Kuang smiled bitterly and explained, "Miss Qi, is there any misunderstanding here? I just came to see Senior Yun on the orders of my master."

Before he finished speaking, Nan Qiao on the opposite side said hurriedly, "Master, she doesn't want to see you! Master just wants to kill you!"

"Pick up your sword quickly!"

Shen Kuang did not pick up the sword, only shook his head and said in a deep voice, "It is hard to disobey a teacher's orders. I am the same as Miss Seven! Even if Miss Seven kills me today, I will still see Senior Yun with my own eyes and hand the things into Senior's hands." of!"

He pretended to be calm, but in his heart he kept muttering to his master, wondering what kind of sorry things he had done to make him want to kill him as soon as he came up. I'm afraid the master had already guessed it, so he pushed him out as a shield!

"Give me the stuff and I will give it to the master!" Nan Qiao's voice was still cold.

Shen Kuang thought for a while and felt that this method was feasible, so he took out the jade pendant he had been carrying in his arms and threw it away.

Nan Qiao caught the jade pendant firmly, glanced back and forth, and was suddenly stunned. Then, he also took out a jade pendant from his arms, which was very similar to Shen Kuang's.

Shen Kuang was also shocked, these jade stones were actually a pair! Only then did he understand why Senior Han had previously said that his master and Senior Yun Qingyou would have become Taoist companions . The piece given by the master was engraved with the character "Yun", and on the other half, he saw the character "Li" engraved on it.

The surrounding disciples didn't understand the meaning of these two pieces of jade, but Nan Qiao knew it, because she had one too. One of her pieces was engraved with the word "Qiao", and the other piece was still empty. The master said that he would wait until she found someone she liked in the future.

In fact, even now she still doubts her master's approach. She didn't know what liking meant. She knew from her master's experience that it was definitely not a good thing! But why does the master still let her find someone she likes? Nan Qiao doesn’t understand!

The master gave the other half of the jade to the senior sword god ! But what is it in exchange for?

After getting the jade pendant, Nan Qiao stood there blankly, wondering what he was thinking! After a long time, it slowly put away the two pieces of jade, raised the sword again and looked at Shen Kuang, still repeating the previous words, "Draw the sword!"

Shen Kuang originally thought that Miss Qi would give up on killing him after getting the jade pendant, but he didn't expect that the other party's eyes would become more decisive after that, as if one of them would definitely fall today.

"Miss Qi, it's time to leave as soon as the things are delivered to me. The master is still waiting for me to go back and cook for him!" He looked carelessly and slowly backed away, thinking that he was not prepared to run away.

He had long forgotten about asking for marriage. Saying that he wanted to marry in front of others was no different from acting like a gangster on the street. So in order to prevent the seventh lady from going berserk further, he chose to keep silent. Thirty-six Strategies , the best option is to take action.

His evil master had made it clear that he was in trouble with Senior Yun and finally abandoned him. Shen Kuang deeply despised the master in his heart. However, a joke is a joke after all. He understands the master's character better than anyone else. Just like Senior Han said, all this is time and fate, and it is not up to anyone!
