The woman in black robe watched the boy in short blouse practice swordplay until the evening. It happened that Lin's father was returning home today. Ye Dang heard that Lin Manliu's father and mother told him about accepting disciples and that the boy in short blouse might have to go on a long journey. At first, Lin's mother

Still a little worried, Lin's father mentioned that the government was going to send tea to Suzhou and Hangzhou in Jiangnan in two days so that his son could go with him. This made Lin's mother feel at ease.

Nightfall

Lin Manliu helped the black-robed woman sit on the threshold again to enjoy the cool air in the yard. The two of them looked at the starry sky in the small yard. It was still so dotted with stars, and there was also a bright moon hanging high in the sky, like the eyes of a god.

Generally overlooking the earth.

Ye Dangting looked at the moonlight and said: "You know, there are so many interesting people and things in this world. It's really time for you to go out and see the outside world."

"The outside world... I have only been in Fengcheng City since I was a child, and I have never been to the west side of the city. I don't know what it is like outside." The boy in a short shirt looked up at the sky with the woman in black robe.

"What you have seen in the past or the Fengcheng you are in is just like the courtyard where we enjoy the cool air now. You can only see the starry sky within the courtyard walls, and the world outside is like a real starry sky, so vast that no boundaries can be seen."

"There are a lot of people outside, and many of them are as skilled in martial arts as Master?" Lin Manliu turned to look at Master with expectation on his face.

The woman in black robe thought for a while, then scratched the head of the young man in short shirt and said: "Do you think Master is weak? We are Jiangnan swordsmen. Ye Dang listen~ Let me tell you about the outside world, warriors like us

Knights are divided into nine levels from bottom to top. The lower third level is just like the housekeepers and guardians in the west of Fengcheng City who have some housekeeping skills. The middle third level is those outstanding disciples of Jianghu sects.

If you go to the third level, you will be some old monsters who can start a sect or some young talents who are famous in the world."

"Isn't the master a third-level master?" The boy in a short shirt almost jumped up with excitement.

"I can be considered as the third-class upper class, but if you include the Jiangnan swordsman Ye Dang, he must also be the second-class middle class." The woman in black robe looked at the surprised boy in short shirt, "Master is so powerful!" Under the moonlight

Lin Manliu jumped into the yard and walked around randomly.

"Well, Ye Dangting is really awesome." The woman in black robe seemed to agree with what the boy in short shirt said just now.

The two of them continued to look at the night sky for a long time.

"Let me tell you some more stories about the martial arts world, so that you won't look ignorant when traveling far away. Once upon a time, the world was divided and divided. The Yanyang Dynasty in the north united with the famous sects such as Fengxue Grand View Tower and Zhujian Peak to unify the world.

, thus creating the current structure. The power of the dynasty is mainly in the north, while the south is based on the promise of the founding ancestor of the country to take what was taken from the rivers and lakes and return it to the rivers and lakes." The woman in black robe looked at the twinkling stars in the sky as if reminiscing about the past. The boy in a short shirt was

Standing in the courtyard, they listened quietly to Ye Dangting's talk about the affairs outside.

"After that, because the world was peaceful and there were no wars, an era of prosperous rivers and lakes ushered in. Various martial arts sects stood everywhere and a hundred flowers bloomed, just like the gorgeous flowers blooming in the south competing for beauty.

The Yuezhou Fengxue Grand View Tower has been standing at the top of the rivers and lakes since then, while the Juzhou Sword-Forging Peak has been forging weapons for heroes from all walks of life for a hundred years. At that time, both the generals of the dynasty and the masters of the world said:

A good soldier can only emerge from the forged sword.

However, the Sword Forging Peak was like a flash in the pan. In the eleventh year after the sun rose, the house was sealed and no longer forged swords to the outside world." After saying this, the woman in black robe seemed a little sad and smiled at the boy in short shirt. Lin Manliu understood a little and said nothing.

.

"And thirty-nine years have passed since Zhujian Peak sealed the hut. During these years, many Jianghu sects have emerged. Your Star View Temple or the Wenjian Lake School in Yangzhou have developed rapidly.

There are many sects, and there are also some local sects that are everywhere, and the world is still full of vitality. The world outside is very big, so you must take a closer look and try your luck in this world." After hearing this, Ye Dang stopped talking and looked towards

A boy in a short shirt.

"Will master come to see me after his injury is better?" the boy in a short shirt asked timidly.

"Probably not. Your mother is the only one who always lives at home when you travel far away. Since you are entrusted by me, I must ensure that you have no worries. I will stay in Fengcheng to protect your family before you travel to Hangzhou and return home.

"Safe," the woman in black robe suddenly said seriously.

"It's my disciple who didn't think well enough. There should be more masters..."

"Can we please stop talking so awkwardly from now on? It's so awkward," Ye Dangting suddenly coughed and said.

"The main reason is that when Master you just talked about the past, I looked a little sad at you, and I was afraid that it would be inappropriate to joke with you." Lin Manliu scratched his head with a smile.

"How dare you talk back? Why don't you look at me when I'm healed? I won't cure your bad problem."

"While the master is recovering from his injury, the disciple is still on a long journey."

"You have to be at home all day tomorrow, so you can start practicing for me early in the morning. If you are lazy, I asked Aunt Lin not to put the dishes and chopsticks for you."

Sure enough, the power was broken after just three sentences. It must be a master and disciple with similar personalities and conduct.

next morning

The boy in a short shirt walked into the yard from the shop in the front room. Because his room was left for Ye Dangting to rest, he could only rest in the shop. Lin Manliu, who was still rubbing his eyes, saw the woman in black robe leaning against the door of the house.

Close your eyes and rest your mind.

"Master, are you feeling better?" The boy in a short shirt trotted up to Ye Dangting.

"I can barely get out of bed and walk around. Go to the house to get the sword and practice." The woman in black robe said casually without opening her eyes.

"Manliu doesn't care about Master..."

"Lian——" There is only one word but the sound is a bit drawn out.

Lin Manliu had no choice but to go into the house and take out the Chunchuangdie, and started to practice sword fighting skills in the courtyard. It had improved a little from the beginning. In addition, the boy in a short shirt had helped the family with work since he was a child and sometimes had to accompany him.

My father went to work on the farmland for the government, and finally gained strength in sweeping his legs with his sword.

"Yesterday I only talked to you about the past and some sects in the martial arts world. I haven't mentioned to you the current heroes or the older generation of martial arts leaders. You can practice your sword while listening to me." Ye Dangting finally opened his eyes at this time.

He looked at the young man in a short shirt who was practicing sword practice in the courtyard.

"I discussed with your father that day that after leaving Jianmen Pass, the caravan should go to Juzhou first, then go to Qianzhou, cross Yuezhou, enter the south of the Yangtze River, and finally end up in the Suhang area. Let me tell you about the choice of this road. Come with me.

At that time, the route was similar and some sects were seen along the way. The generation in southern Xinjiang was deeply educated by the Star Watchers and there were no sects worth seeing.

Juzhou, the first place to arrive after leaving Jiannan Pass, is where the Zhujianfeng Si family is located. However, the decline is now obvious. In addition, the sword appreciation incident last year has been controlled by the two surnames Qiao and Li. The first one to bear the brunt is Li Junce, the enshrined person of the Li family.
