Chapter 229: The library holds the sword, and the divine fire is at its peak.

"What is Mr. Sword Holder?"

Lu Jing sensed Mr. Guanqi's intermittent thoughts, and he couldn't help but feel worried and even a little sad.

Just as the man in brocade clothes said, these days, even Lu Jing has noticed that Mr. Guanqi must have a heavy burden on him, which makes him breathless and prevents him from staying in this world for long.

But... ever since Lu Jing came to this world, there have been very few people who care about him from the bottom of his heart and help him, and Mr. Guanqi is one of them.

To a certain extent, Mr. Guanqi is more like an elder who is related to him by blood.

Now that the elder seemed to be getting weaker and weaker, Lu Jing was at a loss for a moment and could only follow Mr. Guanqi's words and ask questions.

"The library is a place for preaching and teaching, but many times, in addition to teaching and teaching, the teachers in the library also need someone to walk around the world, see the world, and practice knowledge and principles.

If necessary, the sword can also be produced on behalf of the library.

And as a library sword holder, you are no longer an ordinary library gentleman. You will enter the fourth floor and become Master's disciple from then on, becoming the fourteenth gentleman on the fourth floor of the library."

"Master's disciple, the fourteenth gentleman?" Lu Jing lowered his head, the moonlight shone on him, leaving the shadow behind him.

"There are twelve gentlemen on the fourth floor in the library. If you include me, a person who has just entered the library halfway, and you, there are fourteen people in total.

However, three of them are no longer alive, and perhaps Mr. Seven and I will follow in their footsteps soon."

Mr. Guanqi was quite calm. When he said these words, there was a lot of nostalgia for this world in his eyes but no sadness.

On the other hand, Lu Jing couldn't help but pause slightly when he heard Mr. Guanqi's words.

Is Mr. Guanqi really going to... leave?

Lu Jing frowned and looked at the sky. The night was like a wash. Without the undercurrent of the mysterious man's beacon energy and blood, the clouds and fog had long since dissipated.

The sky above Taixuanjing is full of stars, and even the night is so clear.

But...this clear world is the initiator of taking away the life of Mr. Guanqi. Mr. Guanqi and Mr. Four saved all the people from disaster, but they had to pay the price with their lives.

Coupled with the successive disasters on the Hezhong Road, Lu Jing couldn't help but feel suspicious...

——The authority of heaven and earth does not allow mortals to manipulate the natural order of heaven and earth, but are the successive disasters in the middle of the river really the evolution of nature and not the work of the immortals who hold power?

Mr. Si and Mr. Guanqi have clearly eliminated the drought, so why did the drought come back again after that?

While Lu Jing was thinking, Mr. Guanqi walked slower and slower.

“The original purpose of the library was to make Confucianism a prominent school, to restrain oneself and restore etiquette, and to govern with virtue.

It's just that... the knowledge and principles of the past have become shackles. The Master traveled around the country and the world. He originally wanted to rule the people with virtue and make the world more prosperous.

But later, the spiritual tide broke out, and the master gradually realized that the people who ruled the world were not mortal kings. Confucianism became a prominent school, and the kings governed with virtue. Just when the world was about to prosper, many things happened."

"Because of this, the Great Candle King of the Northern Qin Dynasty wanted to use his strength to break the situation. He wanted to place the Black Dragon Flag all over the world and gather the power of the world to compete.

Emperor Chongtian originally wanted to bring the world's martial arts and souls to their peak, allowing thousands of strong men in the world to compete with those superior beings.

However, during the last spiritual tide, many heroes in the past fell, ruining the fate of the country and greatly weakening the national power. As a result, the Northern Qin Dynasty rose. The Saint King in Taixuan Palace saw the surging spiritual tide and their tyranny. He

All the past plans were shattered, and now, he is sitting in his position, looking coldly at the sky and the earth."

"Maybe he is right, but...even if the Holy Lord succeeds, there will always be countless people in the world who have to pay the price for becoming the Holy Lord, such as...the Road in the River."

"call……"

Mr. Guanqi passed by a Dafu mansion, took a few more breaths, and sat on the steps to rest.

Lu Jing was accompanying him.

The road in the middle of the river is the price of the Holy King... Lu Jing's white clothes were fluttering, and he couldn't help but think of Qing Yue who had fled from famine, and then he thought of Xu Wugui.

"You can understand the Fourth Master's human sword energy, you can use the sword to support the light, Dongjun Gaozhao, and you can hold the divine magic, the White Deer Two Swords. Even if your cultivation is still weak now, you can hold the sword for the library.

You are also suitable.

The library has no requirements for you. You just wear a sword and practice the truth in your heart. If you sharpen your sword, the world will have more hope in the future."

When Mr. Guanqi said this, he probably thought of Mr. Fourth. He shook his head slightly and said: "It's just... a person who has realized the sword spirit in the world and acts with his heart will inevitably offend the authorities in the world sometimes, or offend the real people."

's king.

Lu Jing, I don’t want to put shackles on you. If you don’t want to hold the sword, it doesn’t matter. You are still the teacher of the library.”

Mr. Guanqi's voice was soft and gentle, and he looked at Lu Jing like an elder looking at his beloved junior.

Maybe it was because when he first met Lu Jing, Lu Jing was dressed in coarse cloth, but his eyes revealed a perseverance.

Perhaps it was because he stepped into the library for the first time and wrote, "As the years get colder, I know that the pines and cypresses will wither."

Or maybe he cut off the monster's head in the name of the young man's passion.

Or maybe it's because of the light-supporting sword energy developed by Lu Jing.

All in all, Mr. Guanqi regards Lu Jing as his closest relative and cannot bear to see him shoulder such a heavy burden. This is human nature.

But hearing this in Lu Jing's ears made Lu Jing's mood darker and darker.

Mr. Guanqi, who introduced him to the game, is about to die.

"Sir, are you also a disciple of Master?" Lu Jing was silent for a moment, with a unique brilliance in his eyes, and raised his head to ask.

Mr. Guanqi shook his head and said with a smile: "It has been forty-nine years since Master ascended to heaven, and I was not yet born at that time.

But I did meet the Master once after I was crowned. Perhaps because I was born to escape, the Master never accepted me as a disciple.

Later, I carried my suitcase and traveled around the world. I had three wishes. The first was to know all the good people in the world, the second was to read all the good books in the world, and the third was to see all the good landscapes in the world. I also worshiped a good teacher, but that teacher had a bad temperament.

He is a little more detached than me, wandering among the mountains and rivers, and the dragon never sees its end.

If I count carefully, I have never seen him again since I returned from my travels in Taixuanjing."

"So, even if you have never been a disciple of the Master, you can enter the fourth floor and become the sword-wielding master that Master calls you?"

Lu Jing turned his head and asked.

Mr. Guanqi nodded: "Although Master is no longer alive, I am the person appointed by Master. If I accept you as your disciple on your behalf, even Master will agree, let alone the other gentlemen..."

"Sir, I don't want to be my master."

Lu Jing stood up and looked at Mr. Guanqi in the moonlight.

Mr. Guanqi was surprised and was about to speak when he heard Lu Jing say: "Sir, he took me into the library and gave me a writing pen. He asked me to copy classics and cultivate a sense of calmness in my heart. He also asked me to become Mr. Library.

I had a chance to escape from the prison.

When you teach me, you are like a disciple, you have stood up for me many times, and you are like a teacher who protects me."

"Sir, although I have not become your master, you and I have actually been masters and disciples for a long time."

At this time, Mr. Guanqi was sitting on a step, with beads of sweat dripping from his forehead, and a bit of surprise on his gentle face.

Lu Jing stood in front of him, bowing his head gently.

A young man who is famous all over the world, a young man who is famous in Taixuanjing...

The two looked at each other.

Lu Jing also became more and more solemn. He stood upright with his head held high, his arms wide open, and his long sleeves cast two shadows. Then he folded his palms and saluted Mr. Guanqi slowly.

"Teacher." Lu Jing saluted respectfully.

Mr. Guanqi was still hesitating: "I told you just now, I..."

Lu Jing still bowed.

Mr. Guanqi, who was still hesitating at first, suddenly laughed. He stood up with all his strength and tried to help Lu Jing to stand up. Perhaps because he stood up too quickly, this romantic and talented man with strong cultivation was dizzy and was knocked out again.

Lu Jing's eyes were quick and his hands were quick to hold him.

Mr. Guanqi is getting weaker and weaker, which is unusual.

Lu Jing took a deep breath, turned around, and carried Mr. Guanqi on his back.

Under the moonlight, the boy in white was carrying the gentleman in gray robe. Mr. Guanqi's eyes were finally no longer as calm as before, but instead were filled with deep exhaustion.

When he was young, he indulged in romance and the mountains and rivers.

He obviously has not seen much suffering in the world, but he still sees the suffering of people in the world. When he is most energetic, he is willing to contend with the authority of heaven and earth, and ultimately pay the price of his life.

"If the teacher and Mr. Four had not acted with their true intentions, he might have been able to live for a long time."

Lu Jing walked toward the library with Mr. Guanqi on his back: "If the heaven and earth let the teacher die, the teacher will have no choice but to die. Is there no chance of life at all?

Is it not possible for mortals to touch the power of heaven and earth?"

His thoughts continued, and his eyes fell on the Wind-Calling Sword and Rain-Calling Sword at his waist.

Dazhuguo told him that the Wind-Calling Sword and the Rain-Calling Sword were immortal soldiers that fell into the world, and they contained the power of heaven and earth. If you can control the power of heaven and earth, you can truly call the wind and rain, instead of just attracting wind and rain.

These two magical powers!

"In the past, my cultivation was not enough. Even if I traveled around the world, I could not see many secrets in the world, and I would still be in danger.

The teacher also said just now that if something had not happened on the Hezhong Road, there would still be people in Taixuan Jing who would not let me go."

"It's Emperor Chongtian..."
