Twelve Years of the Immortal Master [Rebirth]

The next day, Ling Yun put down the things in the pavilion and came to the door, specifying to see Jiang Dushan alone, so Zhao Yu had to find an excuse to leave first.

After brewing a pot of good tea, Ling Zheng served the tea first. Jiang Dushan didn't understand why he made such a big gift for a while, so he heard him say: "Young master generously donates money, Ling should be grateful. Where it is difficult, I, Suzaku Lake, will do my best to help."

Jiang Dushan was not polite to him, he accepted the favor first, and asked: "Does the master have an original owner for this sword?"

Ling Zheng's lips moved slightly, and he said with a smile: "This sword belongs to my sword-making family, and it will belong to my family from now on."

"Oh? That means this thing has someone else?"

Ling Zheng took out the Yushuang sword and savored it carefully under the sun, as if unwilling to reveal a word.

Jiang Dushan was secretly unhappy, and he couldn't show it, so he said: "I have no other intentions, but I don't know where I got this fine jade? I will find some soon, so I can get some more ornaments."

"It's just an ordinary jade in the rough, but it's a little older, and it's made with the swordsmithing skills of my swordsmithing family. The finished product is always different."

Jiang Dushan saw that he couldn't get his words out, so he lost the intention of chatting, and even the good tea was tasteless.

Ling Zheng said again: "Yushuang doesn't seem to be different from the previous few days. Is your son encountering a problem?"

"Patriarch, don't be too hasty. You said that it would take seven days to open the blade, but now it's only two days."

"That's right." Ling Zheng smiled apologetically, "I'm the one who got impatient."

The two chatted a few more words, Jiang Dushan wanted to leave, Ling Zheng didn't want to keep him, he just said: "My lord's saber is still being refined, probably at the same time as Yushuang, when it recovers, Ling will send it off immediately past."

Jiang Dushan agreed with a smile on the surface, but he was already mad in his heart.

Hearing what he said, is he planning to use his own sword as a threat?Don't even think about taking it back if you don't open a good blade.

Inexplicably angry!

Before he could take ten steps, a gust of sword energy came from the side, cutting off a few strands of his black hair.

The visitor held two iron balls in both hands, and was glaring at Jiang Dushan.

Ling Zheng who was originally sitting stood up, "Awu, what are you doing?"

"Father, this person is just an ordinary person. You treat him with great courtesy but don't pay any attention to him. It really insults my face in Zhuquehu Lake. Today I will ask you for advice. If you lose, you have to apologize to my father! "

"Awu!"

Ling Zheng let out a roar, but it was too late to stop Ling Wu who had already struck. Jiang Dushan only had Yushuang on his body, so he pulled it out and used it. Ling Zheng was terrified, fearing that the sword would be damaged.

Ling Wu is Ling Zheng's eldest son, he thinks he practiced swordsmanship quite a lot on weekdays, seeing that he has a good figure in his moves,

Jiang Dushan didn't dare to let up, he used [-]% to [-]% of his mind.

Ling Wu was very proficient at playing the iron ball. He used one to attack the enemy and the other to defend. Jiang Dushan couldn't move him at first.Ling Wu was very proud, and planned to solve this small training quickly. Jiang Dushan couldn't help him, but turned his strength into defense, and when he didn't expect it, he subdued him with one move.

"Clap."

The iron ball fell to the ground and made a heavy sound.

Jiang Dushan restrained his strength, and pointed the Yushuang sword straight at Ling Wu's throat, almost entering his throat.

Ling Zheng hurriedly stepped forward and scolded: "Who told you that you are not old or young? Mr. Jiang, don't be surprised, my child is immature, please bear with me."

Jiang Dushan put away the sword, and said with disdain: "Even though the family's swordsmanship is powerful, it is still a headache if you don't know how to use it. Eldest Young Master, remember to practice more in the future."

The head of the family pinched his fingers and said, "Ms. Ling must be disciplined more."

Ling Wu watched him leave with an expression of dissatisfaction. Just as he was about to complain, he was frightened back by his father's look. He could only hold his breath and went back to his room. It happened that his younger brother was drinking tea. In this matter, Ling Yun exaggerated Dazong's heart method and Kunlun Changxian formula, which made Ling Wu feel a little envious.

Zhao Yu looked at the gloomy ice lotus growing on the blue lake, and wanted to pick a few back to show Jiang Dushan.He had just picked two lotus flowers using the Changxian Jue, but he unexpectedly cut him with a sword, and the two lotus flowers fell into the lake in an instant and melted.

The sneak attack was a woman, about the same age as him, with a decent appearance, but her skin was a little darker, and the two eyes that set it off were particularly white and bright.

Zhao Yu shook his head. Sure enough, Jiang Jian was still the prettiest, and even women couldn't match him these days.

"You villain! How can you move our ice lotus at will?"

Zhao Yu clasped his fists and said, "It was just an unintentional move. I want to pick a few flowers and show them to my friends. If I offend them, I will make up for it first."

The woman frowned and said, "I, Suzaku Lake, never welcome outsiders! How did you get in here!"

Zhao Yu pointed to his leg and said, "Of course I walked in!"

"Alan."

Another female voice came from behind. Zhao Yu looked back and saw that she was a lady.

The girl named Alan put away her sword, ran to her side and said, "Sister, I don't know, this man picked our ice lotus just now."

Zhao Yu looked them up and down, thinking that the difference in the skin, one black and one white, was too great, and it must not be their own.

"My lord, my name is Yinzhu, and she is my younger sister Alan."

Zhao Yu cupped his hands and gave his name.

"Just now I saw the young master using a spell, is it from a family of cultivators?"

"Exactly, I am from Kunlun."

"Kunlun is far away from Zhuque Lake. Is the young master entrusted by someone to come to the sword-making family?"

"I came here with a friend. His sword was swallowed by the turbid air, so I came here to ask Patriarch Ling for help."

Alan asked with his hands on his hips: "The owner's mansion is far away, why don't you wait and run out? Don't you know that things like ice lotus are very precious? If you pick a plant, you will lose one. There is only a little bit of the huge Zhuque Lake left."

Zhao Yu had been to the Sword Forging Family before, but he didn't know there was such a rule, maybe it was because he didn't put his mind on these things at all before.

So he seriously apologized.

Alan said: "Could it be enough to destroy our two lotus plants with one sentence? You will definitely be punished."

Looking at the outfits of the two sisters, they must have status in Suzaku Lake, and they shouldn't be ambiguous after inquiring about things, so let's just follow them.

Although Yinzhu remembered the truth that "everyone who comes is a guest", and seeing that he is also a member of the four great families, he made an exception and only punished Zhao Yu for "serving tea and water and feeding the fish" for three days.

"This... who made the rules?"

Alan pushed him forward and said, "Who has the most power in Suzaku Lake? It must be the owner!"

"Then who do I serve tea and water to? To Patriarch Ling?"

"Of course it's for the ice lotus in the lake!"

"..."

Are the people from Suzaku Lake so powerful?Can you turn a plant into an animal?

"Hey! Let me tell you, do you know what it means to serve tea and water to feed the fish?"

Zhao Yu shook his head honestly.

"'Duancha' is to trim the dead leaves of the ice lotus in the lake every day, so as to ensure that they grow bigger and better. Otherwise, according to the habit of ice lotus growing once every ten years, it may not necessarily bloom after hundreds of years "Passing water" means to sprinkle dew on the blooming ice lotus every morning. To put it simply, this is equivalent to fertilizing the flowers to ensure their vitality. "Feeding the fish" means giving The fish in the lake are fed with bait to prevent the overly hungry fish from eating the roots of the ice lotus. Do you understand now?"

"..."

What a mess!

Alan yelled angrily: "Don't understand? Are you a fool or deaf? Can't you hear me?"

"No, I already understand. It's just that I don't know where the meaning of 'serve the fish with tea and water' comes from?"

"Which two words do you think are most suitable for serving Binglian?"

"...boy?"

"What does the boy do?"

"... serve tea and water!"

"So. Hurry up and go to work, I'll be watching not far away, don't be lazy!"

Zhao Yu looked at the sun and said, "Isn't it almost noon? The dew shouldn't be harvested, right?"

"Then you go and prune the leaves of the ice lotus. I haven't had time to do it today. Come, give you the scissors."

After finishing speaking, Alan handed him a pair of black gold scissors, which Zhao Yu had seen before, the largest and largest scissors, which could almost kill a person. .

Ice lotus is a special water plant, its shape is similar to lotus, but the leaves are thinner than lotus petals, almost showing a translucent color.The flower center is light blue and does not bear lotus seeds.Its leaves are slightly green, like lotus leaves, and its roots are buried in water, making it invisible.Ice lotus is not only an elegant ornamental object, but also a good medicinal material. It is said that it can cure all diseases and cure all diseases. In the past, when someone from the sword casting family came, they always liked to walk along with a few plants. Fewer and fewer, so the head of the aristocratic family wrote an order, and those who pick ice lotus indiscriminately will be severely punished!

When Zhao Yu trimmed the leaves, he deliberately counted. There are a total of 89 ice lotuses in Zhuque Lake, excluding those that have not yet bloomed. They are scattered widely, and most of them are just a few flowers. Gathered together, the distribution is uneven, and there is nothing on some lakes.I think this kind of plant is really as Alan said, it is beautiful but difficult to grow.

He was busy with this job alone and almost never stopped. In the evening, he rowed a boat and swam all over the lake to feed the fish. Only then was he free. Yinzhu invited him to have dinner. I followed without thinking.

Yinzhu specially prepared vegetarian dishes, and she also understood the reason why the family of cultivating immortals does not touch meat.

Zhao Yu chewed the rice and asked, "It seems that there are only two of you girls in the Jianjian family. Don't the others have wives?"

Alan replied: "Of course there are, but they are arranged in another residence, near Suzaku Lake."

"Then how did you live here?"

"This is naturally the rule of Suzaku Lake."

Yinzhu explained: "The men of the sword-making family are in charge of making swords, and we are responsible for guarding the family. The most important thing is to look after the ice lotus in the lake, so that this aura will not be consumed by the passage of time."

Zhao Yu nodded, he understood this.The aura is unique among the four great families. The aura of Dongling Xijing and Kunlun comes from two fairy mountains. The aura of the pharmaceutical family is mainly in the Yaoshan. The color retention technique.

"You two have taken care of this place since you were a child?"

"Yes." Alan stretched out his fingers and counted, "My sister and I have stayed here for eight years. What my sister has to do every day is to collect dew and make bait, and I am responsible for spreading dew and trimming the dead leaves of lotus. You can get things done with your eyes closed."

No wonder you are so dark and your sister is so white, you do all the work of basking in the sun.

Zhao Yu quickly suppressed his smile.

Alan asked: "Then what about your family of cultivators? Is it like us?"

"As far as I know, there seems to have never been a female cultivator in the family of cultivators. Of course, it's not that there is any discrimination between Kunlun and Dazong. It's just that women have their own conditions and the restrictions of their parents, so almost no one is willing to become a Taoist."

"I also think there is nothing good about learning spells. It's just fancy but not useful. It's not as easy to learn as our family's swordsmanship. You can practice as much as you want. How can there be restrictions?"

Zhao Yu felt that this was the biggest criticism of the swordsmith family's outstanding swordsmanship but their inability to improve.Anyone can practice swordsmanship, so naturally there is no need for in-depth specialization. It is only necessary to maintain stability and achieve positive results. In this way, it is difficult to produce extraordinary talents.

"By the way, I heard that the master of your family has trained the best sword Yushuang in the world. What kind of sword is it?"

"Jade sword, as the name suggests, the jade of the jade pendant is very beautiful."

Yinzhu also nodded and said: "This is indeed a rare and good sword. Not to mention that we people in Suzaku Lake were surprised when we saw it, even people outside want this sword very much."

"It's just a pity that this sword has not been sharpened yet, so it can only be seen and cannot be used."

"How can a sword be a sword without its edge?"

Alan put down the bowl and chopsticks, hiccupped and said, "It's not impossible, but I haven't found the right person yet, no, no, it seems that I found it, right? I heard that the person lives in the owner's mansion now?"

Zhao Yu nodded.

"It will probably take a while to open the blade. Sister, who is this person? It seems that many people from the Cultivation Family came here last time, right?"

Yinzhu raised her head and thought for a while, then said: "There must be no less than a hundred people, anyway, it's too many to count."

Zhao Yu then asked: "Then how does Patriarch Ling know who can sharpen the Yushuang Sword?"

"Of course the Patriarch doesn't know. Otherwise, why wait for three years? Now that a suitable person has come, the Patriarch's sword can finally be returned successfully."

When he got to the point, Zhao Yu pretended to be surprised and said, "Isn't the owner of the Yushuang Sword the owner of your family? Didn't he make this sword? Who is it going to be returned to? The relationship is a bit contradictory."

"It's true that the sword was made by our Patriarch, but someone else asked him to make it. After cutting the blade, it must be returned."

"Then your Patriarch is willing? Isn't it a peerless sword? This belongs to someone else?"

Alan gave him a strange look, and said, "The reputation of a swordsmith lies in making swords, not in holding them."

Zhao Yu suddenly realized and nodded: "Then have you ever seen what that person looks like? Is he a martial arts hero or something?"

"I don't know, it's impossible for the owner to tell us about this kind of thing. Hey, you are like a servant now, not only serving tea and water, but also gossip."

Zhao Yu smiled and said, "Maybe it's just nature?"

"Incomprehensible."

After finishing the meal, Zhao Yu went back, and Alan did not forget to tell him: "Remember to come early tomorrow, and the dew can't be late."

"After dawn, I will finish picking next time."

Alan looked at the door for a while, then yawned and wanted to go back, but seeing Yin Zhu was still looking at the door, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Sister, that boy has gone far away, I have to see it tomorrow." gone."

Yinzhu's face turned slightly hot, and she said, "How do you know I'm looking at him?"

"You don't need to know? You and I have walked the road outside the door for eight years, don't you think you haven't seen enough?"

Yin Zhu patted her head dumbfounded.

"Am I right? Is it true that I watched it for eight years? Maybe I should be the only one to watch it in the future. I'm sleeping, I'm sleepy, and I'm tired even if I haven't worked."

Alan stretched his waist, yawned again, and walked back to his room slowly.

Yinzhu stood where she was, and took a long time to move into the room.
