Chapter 22 Sword Formation(1/3)

The deep hall is one after another.

The bamboo curtains hung deep, isolating all ten feet of red dust outside the curtain, but hiding all the autumn scenery of the mountains deeply in the hall.

There are swallows circling on the beam between the bamboo curtains. In the past, the swallows in front of Wang Xie Hall have flew to this yard today? Could it be that the bells and tripods on the desk are old things in the Jin Valley?

A ray of sunrise, the shade of flowers on the ground, and the birds chirping outside the curtain made the hall look particularly quiet. Three or five erect boys were waiting for the roller shutter to welcome guests. Han Wen and Chu Liuxiang were their guests.

Li Yuhan and Liu Wumei smiled and bowed to the guests with great sincerity.

Liu Wumei said, "As we walked, we suddenly couldn't see you anymore. It was late at night, but I couldn't find you, but it really made people anxious."

Li Yuhan said: "I was just about to ask someone to find you, but I didn't expect that the two of you have arrived. It's so joyful."

These two people can still do this, it’s really disgusting!

Han Wen pretended not to see these two people, and just looked at the surrounding environment and nodded secretly. He is worthy of being a great family, and this foundation really makes ordinary people look up to him;

Chu Liuxiang was still silent and said with a smile: "I'm greedy for the scenery of the mountains and lost my way. I don't want to make the couple so anxious."

Li Yuhan smiled and said, "The moonlit night in the tiger hill is a unique atmosphere, but if it weren't for the elegant people like Brother Chu and Mr. Han, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to appreciate it."

Han Wen smiled and said, "Actually, we didn't appreciate any interest. We just slept in Huqiu and had a few very interesting dreams! We are outstanding and we are very happy. We are not bad! Not bad!"

Liu Wumei said sweetly: "Mr. Han turned out to be sleeping in Tiger Hill, which must be even more interesting."

Han Wen narrowed his eyes and said quietly: "Actually, the dream I have is not really interesting, but I dreamed of a few people who want to kill us. The interesting thing is that these people were actually found by you! Hahaha! It's so interesting!"

Liu Wumei smiled and said, "Oh! That's so interesting. It's a pity that we didn't have such a dream. Otherwise, wouldn't it be even more interesting if we all met in the dream together!"

At this time, they had already walked into four or five bamboo curtains, and the boys in green clothes rolled up the bamboo curtains and put them down, so they were even further away from the world.

Chu Liuxiang's eyes were turning straight, as if she wanted to say something else.

Li Yuhan smiled and said, "You two people you want to meet will soon see you."

Chu Liuxiang glanced at Han Wen again and never said a word. No matter what he said, he had to wait until he saw Su Rongrong and the others. Although he was still smiling, he was still a little nervous.

The boy in green rolled up a bamboo curtain in front of him again, and waves of faint sandalwood drifted out with the rolled bamboo curtain.

Amid the cigarette smoke, there was an old man with white hair sitting there quietly.

His clear face seemed to be haggard and tired, and his eyes were even more dull, as if he was almost lifeless.

He seemed to have only a body left. He had no soul and no interest in life. He lived just to wait for death.

But in front of him, there was a dazzling sword. The sword body was as green as a pool of autumn water. Although the scabbard next to it was covered with precious gems, it had lost its color under the reflection of the sword light.

The old man just looked at the sword in a daze, and didn't move. The glory of his life seemed to be entirely relied on this sword. Is this Li Guanyu, the world's number one swordsman who was so popular when he was young?

Chu Liuxiang was stunned, feeling both surprised and sad. Such a strong person is so fragile. So, isn’t life itself a tragedy?

What surprised Chu Liuxiang the most was naturally that Su Rongrong and the others were not here. He couldn't help but want to ask, but Li Yuhan and his wife had already walked forward.

The two bowed together and Li Yu said, "The child has two friends who have come from thousands of miles to see you, so the child brought them here."

The old man did not look up, and even the sunlight did not move.

Li Yuhan said: "You two friends, you often mention it. This is Chu Xiangshuai, who is famous all over the world! But this one is the Korean 'Sword God' who was recommended by Master Tianfeng as the number one swordsman in the world!"

The old man then looked up, but his eyes were still confused, and he didn't know if he understood Li Yuhan's words.

Han Wen sighed sadly, not knowing what to say. Perhaps, he was disappointed so much that he was beyond remarkable? He originally thought that at least this former number one swordsman in the world could compete with him and verify each other. Who would have thought about it?

Li Yuhan turned around and smiled apologized: "My father has also been a little deaf in recent years. If he is not careful, I hope you will forgive me for your sins."

Han Wen sighed quietly and said, "I dare not!"

Chu Liuxiang immediately continued: "Young man dares not disturb me anymore, so I'd better take your leave!"

Although he was anxious to see Su Rongrong and to pull Li Yuhan and his wife aside to ask what was going on, he couldn't bear to say anything rude in front of this dying old man. Respecting the elderly and respecting the wise is the chivalrous rule of the world. Chu Liuxiang will never destroy this rule.

The old man's lips suddenly moved, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't make a sound. The muscles on his face seemed to be numb.

Li Yuhan said again: "My father is lonely all year round, and it is rare for anyone to visit. Since the two have come, they are unwilling to sit for a while, so my father feels very regretful."

Chu Liuxiang and Han Wen looked at each other and could only sit down. Although they had the courage to fight for thousands of troops and the courage to laugh at the prince, they could only bow their heads and obey orders in front of this old man who was about to die. It was for the venerable!

Li Yuhan Zhanyan smiled and said, "You are so kind, your father must be very grateful."

The old man's mouth moved again, his expression seemed a little sad and anxious.

Li Yuhan frowned and said, "My father doesn't know if he has anything to say to you..."

While he was speaking, he had already walked to the old man and bowed his head to the old man's mouth. Chu Liuxiang could not hear the old man's voice, nor could he see the old man's mouth. He could only see Li Yuhan nodding his head constantly and said respectfully: "Yes...yes...the child understands."

When he turned around, his face was full of pain, but he reluctantly smiled: "For many years, my father has only one wish. Today, the two happened to come. It's just that I have made this wish for my father. It's only a matter of whether they are willing to help."

Han Wen calmed down and smiled and said, "I wonder what wishes you have not yet been fulfilled? If you can serve, you dare not obey your orders."

Li Yuhan said happily: "Since that's the case, I will thank you for your father first."

Chu Liuxiang couldn't help but say, "But it still depends on what the seniors want? Do we have something to do?"

Li Yuhan smiled and said, "I will understand this principle naturally."

Chu Liuxiang's eyes turned and she blew it, saying, "Of course I know that seniors will never be difficult."

...........

...........

Li Yuhan seemed to have not heard what Chu Liuxiang said, and slowly said: "My father became famous with his sword and regarded sword as his life. As long as there is something related to the sword, he is very interested. Therefore, he not only tried to find all the famous sword scores from ancient times to the present, but also carefully studied the origin and history of all the famous swordsmen and all the important battles in their lives."

Han Wen glanced at the old man and thought to himself: "Others only know that they have only been working hard for ten years, and they have to work through iron inkstones. It is not easy to get a title on the gold list. But they don't know that if a swordsman wants to become famous, the effort he puts in is probably ten times more difficult. And they not only have to sacrifice fame and fortune, but also have to endure loneliness that others cannot bear, but what do they get? It's just decades of false reputation in the world."

Li Yuhan has continued: "My father has been studying hard for decades. Although his swordsmanship has made great progress, he has also found several strange and interesting things."

Although Han Wen was doing every step, he was already immersed in his ears and couldn't help asking, "What's the matter?"

Li Yuhan said: "My father discovered that the most famous sword techniques since ancient times are not the most clever ones. This is the strangest thing he thinks."

Regarding Kendo, Han Wen is undoubtedly emotional and interested. She shook her head slightly and said, "I still don't understand this...I still don't understand this."

Li Yuhan said: "For example, the 'Nine Great Techniques of the Demon Sect' have been tricked in the magic sect, and there are endless changes, and they can evolve into 729 moves. If you recognize the strange and erratic moves and the exquisite and meticulous moves, it is actually far above the 'Ringyi Sword Technique' of the Wudang Sect."

Chu Liuxiang interjected and said, "Yes, I have also heard of the power of this Demon Sect's secret sword. It is said that until today, no one in the world can take over his 729 moves."

Li Yuhan said: "Not to say that no one can take over his 729 moves, there are even fewer people who can catch his first seven styles. However, for hundreds of years, people in the martial arts world only know that Wudang's "Red Yi Sword Technique" is unparalleled in the world, incomparable, "The Nine Great Soul-Statistics", but few people even know the name."

Han Wen smiled and said, "Maybe this is because not many people have seen this swordsmanship in the world."

Li Yuhan said: "Although not many people have seen this sword technique, how many people have seen the 'Rongyi Sword Technique'? Wudang disciples have always chosen the most strict disciples, and at the peak of that time there were no more than 81, and not everyone in Wudang disciples have practiced the 'Rongyi Sword Technique'."

"This is not bad. I also know that this 'Rongyi Sword Technique' must be taught by the real person in charge of the sect. Therefore, the Wudang children can really get the 'Rongyi' true teachings, at most only three or four out of ten." Han Wen nodded and said, "Then what?"

Li Yuhan said: "But the Demon Sect has always been a good gate, and can practice swords as soon as they get started. Wudang sects rarely come out of the mountains, but the Demon Sect's children rushed through the world. So no matter what, people who have seen the "Nine Soul-Statistics" are at least several times more people than those who have seen the "Lianyi Sword Technique", but the "Nine Soul-Statistics" are far from being famous. Why is this?"

Chu Liuxiang couldn't help but touched her nose again, murmured: "This is indeed a strange thing."

Li Yuhan smiled and said, "This is indeed a strange thing, but my father figured it out."

Chu Liuxiang suddenly shouted loudly: "I understand too."

Li Yuhan said: "Ask for advice."

Chu Liuxiang said: "Just because of these 'Nine Great Skills of Soul-Statistics', the swordsmanship is so mysterious and exquisite. Therefore, few people who learn can learn the swordsmanship have not yet learned the swordsmanship. They are rushing around in the world and will inevitably encounter walls everywhere, so others will think that their swordsmanship is not very good."

Li Yuhan smiled and said, "Although this makes sense, it is not the main reason."

Chu Liuxiang said: "Oh! So what is the main reason?"

Li Yuhan said: "It is because the sword is dead, but people live. The sword must be able to use the sword technique to show the exquisiteness of the sword technique."

Chu Liuxiang said: "Isn't that what I said just now?"

Han Wen suddenly laughed and continued: "The children of the Demon Cult are not good at sword skills, but their minds are not right. They act too evilly, so when they fight with others, they cannot be justified. Therefore, even if their sword skills are higher than others, they will inevitably lose. "Evil cannot defeat righteousness", this sentence is the truth that has never been easy for all ages! Just as Chu Liuxiangyi can only defeat the strong with weak! If he acts correctly, he will be unstoppable!"

He turned to Liu Wumei and smiled, saying, "My wife thinks what she said below makes sense?"

Liu Wumei coughed lightly and said with a smile: "Yes, two people do it. Those with high martial arts skills may not necessarily win. As long as a person has the determination to win, even if his martial arts skills are worse, he can often defeat the strong with the weak! The most obvious one is Brother Chu's example!"

Han Wen's eyes were bright and focused on her, saying word by word: "But only when a person knows that what he is doing is right can he have the confidence to win, right?"

Liu Wumei was silent for a while, and Yanran smiled and said, "This principle... Maybe I don't understand. I guess Xiangshuai understands it best, just because I have heard that Chu Xiangshuai is invincible. No matter how strong the opponent he meets, he still has the confidence to be invincible."

Chu Liuxiang was not praised by these words, but said in a deep voice: "There is nothing that I am sorry for because I am confident. Otherwise, no matter how good my martial arts skills are, I would have died many times."

...........

...........

Chu Liuxiang's words hid a needle in the cotton, soft and hard, implicitly mocked the couple.

Before Liu Wumei could speak, Li Yuhan rushed to smile and said, "In the famous martial arts battles for hundreds of years, many of them defeated the strong by the weak, which is exactly what my father thought was very strange."

"For example, in the past, the leader of the Demon Cult, Dugu Can and the hero of the Central Plains, Tie Zhongtang, fought decisively at Yandang Jueding. Before the war, they all believed that Tie Zhongtang, who was under thirty, was not as skilled as Dugu Can, and the martial arts of the Iron Blood Flag Sect, were not as strange and exquisite as the Demon Cult. Therefore, everyone in the world was optimistic about Dugu Can, and some even bet that he could win within 800 moves with ten goals."

Chu Liuxiang said: "I have heard of this, too."

Li Yuhan said: "Who knew that the two of them had fought for three days and three nights. Later, although Tie Dahe was injured thirteen places and his clothes were stained with blood, he still used Xiao Tianxing's palm power to break Dugu Can's heart veins. Dugu Can could not believe that he would be defeated until he died."

Chu Liuxiang suddenly burst into his heart, glanced at Han Wen, suddenly looked very exaggerated, and browsed, and said with a high high: "This Tie Zhongtang Iron Hero is a man. If I have the chance to see him in the future, it would be worth his life to drink with him for three days and three nights."

Han Wen looked at him, narrowed his eyes and remained silent.
