Sword in the Qin [Comprehensive + Sword III]

There is a bit of coolness in the air, and there is a bit of incense in the coolness.Such a place would not be Baiyun City, nor would it be an ordinary man's mansion, nor would it be an inn, but a temple or a Taoist temple.

As soon as Ye Gucheng opened his eyes, he found himself in a completely strange room.

There is only a four-foot-wide wooden bed in the entire room, a wardrobe, a set of small square tables, a desk near the window, and the four treasures of the study on the desk.

What is extremely disproportionate to this humble room is that there are actually two paintings of Tang Dynasty calligraphy hanging on the wall, and several Tang Dynasty handwritten Taoist classics are placed on the desk.Whether it is the calligraphy works or the ancient books on the table, although they are new and strange, they are undoubtedly from the Tang Dynasty.

Although the two calligraphy on the wall are not the works of famous masters, the calligraphy is excellent.There is a bit of sword intent in the indifference. The person who wrote the calligraphy not only has good handwriting, but also has good swordsmanship.

On the left side it reads "Everyone in the world knows that beauty is beauty, and this is evil. Everyone knows that what is good is good, but this is not good." The one on the right reads "The best goodness is like water. Water is good for all things without fighting, and it is what everyone hates, so it is almost Yu Dao."

Ye Gucheng doubted very much that he was in a certain Taoist temple or the room of a certain Taoist priest.Pressing on his chest, the wound was painful, it was not a dream.

Ye Gucheng closed his eyes slightly, recalling Ximen Chuuxue's stunning sword.He thought that the heights were overwhelming, but he didn't know that someone had already reached a higher position.Maybe it's not that the heights are too cold, but that he didn't realize that the way of swordsmanship is infinite.

However, Ximen Chuuxue's sword clearly pierced his heart, why didn't he die?

When Ye Gucheng was puzzled, he heard the sound of footsteps.With the sound of pushing the door open, someone came in from the outside.

Ye Gucheng opened his eyes and looked, strangely, he only heard footsteps but saw no one.

"Sir, are you awake?" A childish and joyful voice sounded, and Ye Gucheng realized that he had already walked to the bed.

It turned out to be a child who was more than three feet tall and wearing a Taoist robe. The child had a cute little round face, and when he smiled, there was a small dimple on his face, so cute.

Ye Gucheng sneered slightly in his heart, it seems that getting injured will indeed reduce people's sensory ability.

But how to get along with children is really an unknown proposition for Ye Gucheng.Ye Gucheng seldom gets close to children, or even never.The icy sword intent on his body can even drive away many people in the Jianghu, let alone children.

The closest he was to a child was when he had a sword debate with Ximen Chuuxue during the Famous Sword Competition.When Ximen Chuuxue's son and friends met him, they were able to greet him politely without fear of the cold sword intent on him.

"What is this place? Who are you?" Ye Gucheng asked.

Xu Shi didn't drink water for too long, Ye Gucheng's voice was very hoarse.

"This is Huashan Chunyang Palace!" The child turned back and poured warm boiled water on the table and brought it to the bed. "Disciple Yang Daoan, I am ordered by my master to take care of you, sir."

"Chunyang Palace?" Ye Gucheng frowned, "Dare to ask what the Lingshi's name is, and why am I here?"

He seemed to have heard Ximen Chuuxue talk about Chunyang, but he always thought that Ximen Chuuxue was discussing ancient times with him.Is there really a Chunyang sect in the world?But Huashan is so big, there are Beihuashan and Nanhuashan schools, how can there be a Chunyang Palace that is not known to outsiders?

"My family teacher's surname is Luo, Shangqingxiayun, I am the disciple of Chunyang." Dao'an explained, "Mr. was sent by a friend of Master to Chunyang Palace to recuperate."

"Who is the commander's friend?"

Xiao Daotong shook his head: "Master didn't say who his friend is, but the little brother who sent you here with that person is a direct disciple of the head of Changge Sect."

"Little brother?"

"My little brother's name is Ximenyu, he is the son of a friend of Master's." Dao'an said, "My little brother even gave me a lot of small gifts before he left!"

Ye Gucheng understood, it seems that Ximen Chuuxue and his son sent him here.I just don't know what method Ximen Chuuxue used to save him who was supposed to die after that battle.

"Since the master is awake, the disciple will come here to fetch food and medicine." Daoan ran out as he spoke.

Seeing the neatly folded robes on the bedside, Ye Gucheng got up and changed.Although this movement made the wound ache, this pain was nothing to a swordsman like Ye Gucheng.

He had just put on his clothes when he saw Daoan bring another little boy into the house carrying things.

The little boy was carrying a hot water handkerchief, green salt willow branches and other things for washing, and Luo Daoan was carrying breakfast and a bowl of medicine.The two six- and seven-year-old babies not only walked quickly with a lot of things, but the soup on the tray was leak-proof.

Although the maids and servants around Ye Gucheng could do it in the past, they were carefully selected and trained by the stewards of Baiyun City before they dared to send them to the city lord to serve them.But these two little Taoist boys are obviously not serving people. The reason why they can carry many things without leaking is because they have cultivated profound inner skills.

At such an age, he can cultivate the skills that ordinary children only have in their teens. If he is either extremely talented or has a powerful master.

"Thank you, Brother Daoming!" Dao'an put the things on the table, and said to Xiao Daotong, who was a year or two older than him.

"Junior brother, you're welcome!" The little Daoist named Daoming also put down his things, returned the salute to Dao'an, and saluted Ye Gucheng before leaving.

"Sir, please wash up and eat breakfast first." Yang Daoan raised his head, looking up at Ye Gucheng Dao cutely.

"Thank you!"

Although Ye Gucheng was confused, he was a person with a strong heart.Although he didn't understand the current situation, he subconsciously decided to wait and see what happened.

After washing up, Ye Gucheng ate breakfast, picked up the bowl of wound medicine that was still warm and drank it down in one gulp.

"Sir, you are amazing!" Dao'an said with admiration, "When Master first took me up the mountain, he asked me to drink medicine, and I was afraid of suffering."

Ye Gucheng: "... I don't know the leader of the small road, can you lead me to see the commander?"

"Master is going to sit on Wangfeng Peak!" Xiao Daoan frowned disapprovingly, "Mister's injury is not healed yet, he should take good care of it."

Dao'an was originally a child of the people in Tongguan. Although Datang won the battle of Tongguan, the people outside Tongguan suffered.Dao'an's village was ransacked by the Spike Army, and it was Luo Qingyun who rescued him from the pile of dead people and sent him back to Chunyang Palace to recuperate.Yang is Dao'an's real surname, but the name Dao'an was chosen together with other brothers of the same generation.

"Zuowangfeng is far away from here?"

Dao'an nodded: "It's a long way to go! On weekdays, when you go to Sitting Wangfeng, you fly there or ride a horse. The master said that the wound has just healed, so it's not good to use force."

"Being bored in the house is not conducive to the recovery of the injury. Why don't you tell me how to get to Zuowang Peak and lend me another horse?"

"No! The master ordered the disciple to take care of the master, and the disciple has to bear the responsibility." Dao An immediately said with a sullen little round face, "If the master feels bored, the disciple can lead you around."

Ye Gucheng didn't expect this little Taoist boy to be so persistent, he only went outside to get a better understanding of the environment, and he readily agreed.

Following Dao'an to go out, he walked slowly all the way, but seeing the pavilions, towers and pavilions, they were full of ancient flavors.It also has a bit of the grand atmosphere of the Han and Tang Dynasties, which seems to be the Taoist temples of the Tang Dynasty, not like the beauty after the Song Dynasty.

"...Eternal virtue is never separated, and it returns to the baby. Knowing its glory and guarding its disgrace is the valley of the world. To be the valley of the world, Changde is sufficient. Changde is sufficient, returning to simplicity. Knowing its whiteness and keeping its blackness is the world's formula. It is the style of the world, Changde is not indecipherable. Changde is not indecipherable, returning to Wuji..."

The sound of books was heard in the distance, and Ye Gucheng walked with Dao'an, but saw a one-armed Taoist priest teaching a group of children to read.

The little ones shook their heads and memorized while reading, most of them were very serious.Occasionally, one or two mischievous ones secretly looked at Ye Gucheng and Daoan, and they were immediately spotted by the Taoist priest, who asked to recite alone.

Dao'an didn't open his mouth, he stood in the distance and saluted, and only continued walking after the Taoist leader nodded.

"This is my Uncle Yuan Qing, who was seriously injured in the Anshi Rebellion. Although the doctors in Wanhua Valley are very powerful, the arm that Uncle Yuan lost on the battlefield can no longer grow back." Daoan said, "But hello, Uncle Yuan. Powerful, after he recovered from his injury, he practiced the left-handed sword, and it is still so powerful."

Ye Gucheng glanced at his arm, then looked at the Taoist priest, and couldn't help but respect him a little more.It is really admirable for a swordsman to recover quickly after losing his arm.

Further on is the Tai Chi Square, where many Chunyang disciples are practicing swords, Ye Gucheng deliberately avoids it.

Unexpectedly, Dao'an said with some doubts: "Don't you also practice swords, sir? I thought you would like this place, so I brought you here."

"How can you watch him send his disciples to practice swords?"

"Sir, you don't need to be like this. This Tai Chi Plaza is open to outsiders." But a woman in white with a sword in her crown came to meet her. "Sir, I guess, is the guest that Ximen sent to recuperate? I am Qingxu's disciple Yuxi."

"Ye Gucheng!"

"Senior Brother Qingyun is really, he left the guest here and ran out. If Mr. Ye doesn't mind, why don't I lead him around!"

"Thank you!"

"Uncle Yu, sir's injury is still not healed!" Dao'an raised his head and said.

"Master uncle knows, Dao'an, let's do homework!" Yuxi patted Xiao Dao'an's head and said.

"Thank you, Master Uncle, I'm going right now!" Dao An heard the words and jumped away.

Only then did Ye Gucheng realize that Xiaodaotong might have delayed his homework in order to take care of him, so he felt a little ashamed.

Led by Yuxi for a walk in Chunyang Temple, Ye Gucheng felt as if he had broken into another world.

"In addition to the main hall of Chunyang Palace and Taiji Square, there are also Laojun Palace, Chaoyang Peak, Lianhua Peak, and Zuowang Peak, which are a little farther away. It is better to wait for Mr. Ye to recover from his injury before visiting." Yuxi smiled.

Ye Gucheng naturally agreed.

It was not until the evening that Ye Gucheng met Dao'an's master Luo Qingyun.Luo Qingyun also learns swordsmanship, but compared with Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng, even his personality is somewhat similar.However, Luo Qingyun's body was a bit more natural.

After recuperating in Chunyang Palace for more than a month, Ye Gucheng admired all the nearby scenery, and once brewed tea and discussed swords with Luo Qingyun at Zuowangfeng.After going through a lot of life and death, Ye Gucheng's comprehension of kendo deepened a bit.

As a guest in Chunyang Palace, it is naturally impossible for Ye Gucheng to keep his ears to the outside world like he was in Baiyun City.On Huashan Mountain, I was "forced" to hear many stories similar to the Taoist priest with the broken arm and Dao'an's life experience.

Luo Qingyun didn't let him go down the mountain until he was seven or eight minutes from his injury.He also gave him a letter and a map left by Ximen Chuuxue, as well as luggage and horses left by Ximen Chuuxue when he sent him here.

Ximen Chuuxue's letter was naturally extremely simple, it just mentioned some places that Ye Gucheng could visit, nothing else.

Ye Gucheng didn't know the destination, but after seeing Ximen Chuuxue's letter, he really studied the map and prepared to go.

Leaving Huashan Mountain and entering Chang'an City, the prosperity of Xijing remains the same.Passing through Tongguan to Luoyang, the eastern capital, although there are signs of prosperity, there are still broken walls in the countryside everywhere.Entering Luoyang City, you can also see the traces left by the Anshi Rebellion.

After walking a lot and watching a lot, Ye Gucheng finally realized how naive his previous thoughts were.Changing another emperor might just be something he wanted to do on a whim, but he didn't know what a wise king was in the hearts of the people.

The emperor is too powerful, and it is destined that whether the emperor is wise or not is closely related to the lives of the people.

Ye Gucheng never regrets what he has done, but seeing many orphans who are more miserable than Daoan, it is the first time in his life that he regrets what he promised Nan Wang and his son to do.Fortunately, this mistake was finally terminated without causing a catastrophe.

Walking all the way to Taiyuan City, Ye Gucheng had other ideas about his comprehension of kendo.Having seen Ximen Chuuxue's "No Sword" realm and Chunyang Palace's Taixu Sword Intent, Ye Gucheng decided to go to the south of the Yangtze River to see Qixiu's sword dance and the "Heart Sword" of Hidden Sword Villa.

In Yangzhou City, I met Yuxi, the female crown of Chunyang again, and walked together.From Qixiu to Cangjian Changge, and then to Tianzi Peak in Nanping Mountain, there are many adventures.
