One Sword to Heaven

Chapter 41 Rules
"Brother Wang, this is the place."

After Wang Yan walked through the Chunxiao Building with Fifth Rhyme and entered the town, he was led by Fifth Rhyme. I told Wang Yan before that the broken page of the sword move was obtained when I was traveling with a friend. It was originally two, and they each shared one. Later, her friend left the game because of some things, but before leaving , came to Tianmaji with her and sold all the valuables on her body to a certain shop, including the broken page of the sword move in her friend's hand.

Over the past month, Wang Yanri has comprehended the remaining pages of the sword move day by day, but as he deepened his comprehension, he only felt that the sword move was extremely mysterious, and with his current cultivation base, he could not see all the mysteries in it. Wang Yan even felt that this sword move was likely to surpass the Huang level and reach the superior martial arts of the Xuan level.

In this way, Wang Yan didn't want to miss it when he learned the whereabouts of the remaining pages of another sword move, so he let the fifth rhyme follow.As for the mention in Fifth Rhyme that her friend left the game, Wang Yan can't understand it at all with his current cognition, and he doesn't want to spend more time thinking about it. After all, the most important thing for Wang Yan now is to improve his strength, but he Still secretly remembered this statement.

Looking in the direction pointed by the fifth rhyme, Wang Yan saw a small dilapidated shop in front of it. The word "Mingzhengtang" was written on the plaque in front of the shop, and there were affixed stickers on the door frames on both sides. Deputy couplet.

Shanglian: Good things, bad things, you only know good or bad after you buy them.

The second couplet: real kung fu, fake kung fu, it is difficult to know the true and false without practicing.

Looking at this couplet, Wang Yan couldn't help squinting his eyes slightly, only to feel that this shop is a bit ghostly, and it may not be easy to achieve the purpose of this trip. Thinking like this, Wang Yan followed Fifth Rhyme and walked towards this shop.

After entering the shop, Wang Yan discovered that the shop was quite large inside, but it was not as dilapidated and cramped as it looked from the outside. The left and right sides of the shop were covered with all kinds of weapons, and there was a long table facing the door. Behind the counter is a grandma with age spots lying on a rocking chair, holding a delicate small teapot in one hand, sipping tea leisurely with her eyes closed.

Hearing Wang Yan and Fifth Yun's footsteps, the old woman didn't even open her eyes, she opened her toothless mouth and said leisurely: "Look at it, look at it, you can choose good or bad things."

The old lady didn't seem to care about the customers at all, but fortunately Fifth Yun stepped forward and said, "Grandma Long, do you still remember me?"

Hearing the words of the fifth rhyme, the old woman finally opened her eyes to look at the fifth rhyme, but her eyes were full of doubts, and she murmured: "You are."

Fifth Rhyme didn't answer, just stood in front of the counter for the old woman to watch, after a while, the old woman finally remembered.

"Oh, you are the girl with the double surname 'fifth'. I have accompanied people to the store several times before. If your name is not weird, I really can't remember it in my old mind, hehe."

After saying that, the old woman stood up, looked at Wuyun and said, "You girl, I'm afraid you haven't been to my place for more than half a year. Tell me, what's the reason for your sudden visit today?"

Listening to the conversation between the two, Wang Yan felt that the relationship between Fifth Rhyme and the old lady was only vague, but they were just acquaintances. On the contrary, Fifth Rhyme seemed very warm, holding the old lady's hand and saying: "Grandma Long, can you Remember that a friend of mine once sold a lot of things to you at one time, you gave her a total of 120 taels of gold, and there was a broken page of a sword move in the middle of the things she sold you?"

The old woman's eyes flashed, then she glanced at Wang Yan, and said with a smile: "Why, you brought someone here today to buy back the broken page of this sword move?"

Fifth Rhyme nodded hurriedly, and Wang Yan also stepped forward and said sincerely, "Please help me, senior."

The old lady didn't answer directly, she just smiled, looked Wang Yan up and down, and said, "Do you know the origin of the sword move?"

"The younger generation has limited knowledge, only that the sword moves are extraordinary."

"The swordsmanship cultivated by the inner disciples of Wanjianzong is naturally extraordinary!"

Wan Jianzong?Wang Yan frowned slightly. He also knew that the top sects in the five prefectures did not know the existence of Wan Jianzong. The old woman saw Wang Yan's bewildered look and said with a smile: "It's normal for a child to have shallow eyelids. I want you to know that this Wanjian sect was the largest sect in Beisheng Prefecture more than 400 years ago, dominating the entire prefecture, and all other sects in the prefecture worshiped it.

It's just that Wan Jianzong was too ambitious and extended his tentacles to the other four states. This touched the bottom line of Tianyuan Shengdao. During the battle, all the masters of Wan Jianzong came out, but most of them were killed by strong enemies in the future. There were thirty or forty masters at the peak of the physical state who fell from Guangtian Yuansheng Island. This shows the strength of Wan Jianzong.

And what is recorded on the remaining pages of this sword move is the "Lonely Heart Sword Art" that Wan Jianzong used to practice for inner disciples. There are eight sword moves in the whole book.Although this Guxin Sword Art is not the top sword art inherited by Wan Jianzong, it is also a genuine superior martial art. Do you know what grade this sword art is? "

Wang Yan never expected that the fragmented pages of this sword technique would have such a history. Fortunately, he still had some concentration. Facing Grandma Long's question, he said unsurely: "It should be in the Xuan level!"

"Xiaowazi has some eyesight. This Guxin swordsmanship is exactly the middle-grade Xuan-level swordsmanship. This level of swordsmanship can be regarded as a top-notch skill in the top sects of the five states today. Such a level of swordsmanship Do you still want to buy Juxue? Do you dare to buy it? Can you afford it?"

Grandma Long asked three times in a row, Wang Yan could hear the meaning contained in these three questions, he couldn't help sweating a little on his forehead, thought for a while, and finally said: "Maybe I can't afford it now, but please tell me, senior." number."

"Okay, then I won't talk nonsense. If you bring 1000 taels of gold in the future, I will sell you the broken page of that sword move!"

1000 taels!gold!
Wang Yan never expected that the old lady would open her mouth wide and call out such a sky-high price for a broken page of swordsmanship, and the fifth rhyme on the side also said: "Grandma Long, when you received this broken page, it was only valued at 100!" Two gold."

Grandma Long looked at Wu Yun with a smile and said, "Fifth girl, what you said is wrong. The fragment of the sword move in your hands can only be regarded as an unknown sword skill, but I can tell the history."

"This history alone is worth 900 taels of gold?"

"Of course!"

What Grandma Long said was categorical, but Wang Yan was a little puzzled and said: "Senior, can't this secret book be copied? It's not just for my family. Why?"

Before Wang Yan finished speaking, Grandma Long sneered and said, "It turns out that he is a young boy who has just dabbled in the rivers and lakes."

After finishing speaking, she took out a secret book called 'Flying Geese' from the counter, then took out a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and said, "Open the front page of this secret book and copy it yourself."

Wang Yan didn't know why Grandma Long did this, but he still opened the secret book. This flying geese kung fu is just a very common light kung fu flying technique. Although it is more advanced than the walking kung fu, it is also limited. Then he took the pen and began to copy the words in the secret book.

However, after Wang Yan finished writing a line, a strange thing happened, the black words on the white paper disappeared quietly, as if Wang Yan had never written.

"How could this be?"

Wang Yan turned pale with shock, but Fifth Rhyme on the side was not surprised, but she looked at Wang Yan with a hint of suspicion in the depths of her eyes.

But Grandma Long smiled slightly and said: "Since ancient times, countless great masters of the ancestors have believed that this world has a 'spirit', which protects all things in the dark, and also makes rules in the dark, and this is just one of the rules. one.

It is not impossible to copy the secret book, but it is not possible to use ordinary pen, ink, paper and inkstone. It is necessary to use pens made of 'sinking gold ink', 'silver bamboo paper', and the tail of 'copper bull beast', but these The resources are all in the hands of the major sects.In addition, copying the secret book for ordinary people is a waste of energy. Just like your cultivation base is to give you those few things. Only those with special abilities can do it.

Moreover, the more advanced the secret book, the higher the grade of silver bamboo paper, copper ox tail, and a large amount of gold ink. For example, if you want to copy a fragment of a secret book such as the Gu Xin Jian Jue, it will cost a lot of money. The materials can also be transcribed from more than [-] secret books such as Walking Goose Kung Fu.As for the person who transcribes, they need to have extremely strong special abilities, and such characters are generally enshrined in the top sects.

So now you should know why I bid 1000 taels of gold, right?Because I don't have the ability to copy that secret book, selling it to you is like selling it alone, and it is worth the price. "

This is the first time Wang Yan has heard of these common senses about transcribing secrets, but he can't help but frown. He just feels that this rule does not restrict NPCs too much. After all, NPCs can learn or teach martial arts through dictation. It is specifically for players, after all, players must use secret books to learn martial arts, and the secret books will disappear completely after use.

How come there are rules specifically aimed at restricting players?Is it really like what the fifth rhyme said, that the world I am in is just a game field created by them?Then what kind of existence am I? NPC?Then do I have life and a soul?

Wang Yan's mind surged up. He seemed to be on the tip of a bull's horn. He used the cognition accumulated during this time to think over and over again. In the end, his forehead began to feel hot, his consciousness became blurred, and everything in front of him disappeared in a trance, replaced by Instead, there are rows and rows of odd symbols and numbers.

This is not the first time this happened. The first time it happened was when Wang Yan questioned him in Jingtie Cave, and the second time was when he met Zhang Xiaobao for the first time. This time was different from the previous two times. Not only did the reaction become more violent, Moreover, Wang Yan felt a tear in his whole body. He only felt that his brain was overloaded to the limit, and his brain seemed to be splitting apart, but he didn't know how to stop it.

'Am I going to die? '
