Piercing the Heart [Sword Three]

"Sigh..." Xu Buhui sighed quietly, and then said, "I heard that the two friends arrived last night, and the speed is really not bad."

Li Tang immediately began to look up at the sky.

"The weather is nice today!" Looking at him, he said to Qi Cheng, "There are no clouds in the sky, so it is really suitable for traveling and practicing martial arts."

"It's really not bad." Qi Cheng echoed, "Since you said it's suitable for traveling, how about we visit Qishan School together later?"

"Then it's disrespectful." Li Tang said happily, and then he looked at Bai Shuangming and asked, "Brother Bai, do you want to go together?"

Bai Shuangming, who was practicing sword, nodded.

"Then let's go together after Brother Bai finishes." Li Tang said.

"Okay." After walking around the Bai family, Qi Rong just heard the conversation between them, so he also shouted happily, "I'm going too."

"Don't worry." Qi Cheng looked at Qi Rong and said, "I will never forget you."

Xu Buhui: ...

He was completely ignored!

"Ah..." Xu Buhui sighed again, then walked up to the two of them, pointed at his black eye circles and said, "Is my presence so low?"

"How could it be!" Li Tang laughed and said, "A handsome man like Mr. Xu is naturally unforgettable."

"A little bit, just a little bit." Xu Buhui said sadly, "It's just that I got up a little late, and I missed your team. No matter how hard I travel for five days, I can't catch up with Tang. Brothers, I traveled all night last night, it is really sad."

"Actually..." Seeing Xu Buhui's expressionless expression, Li Tang added in a low voice, "Actually, we didn't go too fast. We should be able to meet up after chasing each other for about two days."

It's almost here, why is he still staying up all night on the road?

After listening to Li Tang's words, Xu Buhui's expression instantly changed from surprise to panic. After looking at Li Tang for a while, he almost gritted his teeth and said, "It really is a good idea."

Li Tang: "Where is it, Mr. Xu is polite."

"Boss Xu's complexion is so bad." Qi Rong, who had been watching for a long time, said suddenly.

Xu Buhui: ...

Just as Li Tang and the others were sitting in the shade, chatting about the mountains while enjoying the shade, the morning exercise at the Bai family also ended.

"Okay." Xu Buhui, who had been keeping an eye on Bai Shuangming's movements, said.

Although the morning exercise was over, Bai Shuangming didn't join them immediately. Instead, after arranging his clothes and hairstyle, he solemnly wiped his sword.

After watching the Taolian sword being carefully, three-dimensionally and comprehensively cared for by Bai Shuangming, Li Tang couldn't help shivering, it was terrible.

Although he didn't understand it, he didn't understand it, but Li Tang still admired his attitude towards the sword. If Taolianjian really had a sword spirit, then he should be happy to see himself being cared for so much, right? !

"By the way, Brother Bai..." Seeing Bai Shuangming put the Taolian sword into the sheath and put it in the sword bag, Li Tang was moved and asked, "Can you ask Brother Bai to help me choose the sword bag?"

It looks so cool!

"You want to buy a sword bag?" Bai Shuangming walked over and asked curiously.

"That's right." Li Tang said, "It just so happens that I got a sword recently, and I want to practice my hand for the time being, so I have to buy other things together." Ying Chao should not be low.

But of course you can't tell Bai Shuangming about this kind of thing, if he hears it, if Xing comes to his head and pulls him to compare swords, it will be a headache.

"Why are you practicing swords all of a sudden?" Qi Cheng frowned, and persuaded, "You are used to using crossbows, and you are also very knowledgeable in this field. Even if you were restrained before, the opponent is not an ordinary person. So there is really no need to abandon the crossbow and change to the sword.”

"Don't worry, I'm just practicing temporarily." Li Tang looked at the worried Qi Cheng and comforted him, "When I was practicing swords recently, I always felt out of shape, so I want to try other ones and see if I can pass the sword practice. And get some new insights.”

In fact, he just suffered from a simple trumpet disease.

"Okay then," Qi Cheng said helplessly.

"Where's the sword? I want to see its appearance." When Li Tang and Qi Cheng finished flirting, Bai Shuangming asked.

Look at the appearance of the sword?After repeating it in his mind several times, Li Tang covered his head and said, "Wait a minute, I'll get it."

After speaking, he quickly ran out of the yard.

"Sword?" Looking at Li Tang's leaving figure, Qi Cheng muttered to himself, "Why didn't I see..." Tang Chenxing's luggage was clear to him, and now he was going to take out a sword again ?

Qi Cheng looked at Bai Shuangming who was drinking tea in silence, and suddenly remembered what he said to Tang Chenxing on the day of departure, could it be that Chengjian was already there at that time?It's just that he has been hiding?

After returning to his room, Li Tang, who thought he was smart, first tidied up his bed in a decent manner, then opened the package, touched it for a while, and then fastened it tightly. Then, the sword appeared in his hand.

Looking at the "mass-produced" goods with exquisite workmanship, Li Tang couldn't help laughing. Fortunately, he had drawn Xiefeng to feel emotional, otherwise he might not have had the chance to encounter a sword with such a good attribute.

When he went out again, he had already prepared a good sword on his back.

From the courtyard where he lived to where the Bai family lived, although the distance was very short, Li Tang Xiangxiu couldn't hold back, so he backed up, accelerated, and took off directly with Daqinggong.

It has to be said that Chunyang Qinggong flies very high, so when Li Tang looked at the smaller and smaller people and scenery under his feet, his mood suddenly improved a lot. Perhaps, the higher he flew, the better his vision It makes sense to say so openly.

……

Seeing Li Tang plummeting, Qi Cheng immediately stood up, and then adjusted his position to be ready to catch him at any time.

Taking a sword can actually make it fall from the sky, what happened?

"Brother Qi..." Looking at Qi Cheng who was getting closer, Li Tang waved his hand in a good mood without feeling nervous at all.

Qi Cheng: ...

Is he really not afraid of breaking it?

The moment Qi Cheng stretched out his hands and was about to catch him, Li Tang jumped back against the wind and fell to the ground.

Standing up and clapping his hands, Li Tang flicked his bangs and the crowd came happily.

"I've kept you all waiting."

"Huh? Brother Qi, why do you look a little depressed?"

"It's nothing!" Qi Cheng held his increasingly fragile heart and said word by word, he really, really, really wanted...

Xu Buhui burst out laughing immediately, looking at the bewildered Li Tang, he shook his fan and laughed, "Brother Tang, you really scared Brother Qi."

Li Tang, who understood what happened in an instant, was immediately embarrassed. Looking at Qi Cheng, who changed his drink from tea to cow drink, Li Tang carefully sat beside him, and said softly, "Thank you."

"It's nothing." Qi Cheng took a deep breath and said.

Seeing Qi Cheng who was successfully tamed by him, Li Tang calmed down for a while, and then Xie Jian handed it to Bai Shuangming who had been staring at it: "It's called Yi Xing."

"Good name." After taking the sword and looking at it carefully for a while, Bai Shuangming praised, and then handed the sword back to Li Tang.

Seeing that Bai Shuangming returned the sword so happily, Li Tang was both happy and sad. It was indeed a good thing that his sword came back, but did he despise it?

"Brother Tang" Bai Shuang said seriously, "What kind of sword bag do you want?" As he spoke, he writhed in his sleeve.

Seeing the sword bags being taken out of Bai Shuangming's sleeves one by one, Li Tang was speechless for a moment.

"Brother" Li Tang swallowed his saliva and said, "Are you doing magic?"

"What is magic?" Bai Shuang, who was counting the number, asked without looking up.

"It's nothing." Li Tang said quickly, "I mean your wife has a lot of clothes."

"Is he married?" Before Bai Shuangming could say anything, Xu Buhui jumped up and asked excitedly around Li Tang.

Li Tang: ...

So how did the topic seamlessly connect to this topic?

But soon, he was attracted by the sword bag all eyes.

Although they have only one color, which is white, they can't stand the variety of styles and materials, which are beautiful and novel.

But the taste of Bai Shuangming is really changeable!

High-end atmosphere, high-grade, low-key luxury and connotation, he has everything that one expects to find in various styles!

"That's it, thank you." The dazzled Li Tang closed his eyes and chose one at random, and then wrapped his own sword.

Although compared to the scabbard, the sword bag is very inapplicable, but it looks good, and it can really make people overcome all problems.

What's more, it can be used as a wallet by the way.

Watching Li Tang stuff the silver ticket into the sword pocket, the corner of Bai Shuangming's mouth twitched, and then he started to pack it up again.

For Yi Xingjian, Bai Shuangming couldn't tell what he felt.

Of course, a sword is a good sword. Just by looking at its sharpness, one can tell that it is a sharp weapon that cuts iron like mud at regular intervals. If it can be used well, the lethality of the sword user will also be greatly improved.

But if it is good, in Bai Shuangming's eyes, there is something missing in it. He can't feel the emotional fluctuations of the caster. It seems that this is just a random casting, perfect but meaningless.

Of course the most important thing is that there is no soul.

Sword Soul and Sword Consciousness may sound illusory, but Bai Shuangming can really feel their existence, it's a pity, it's a pity that other people can't feel this.

As for Tang Chenxing's swordsmanship, although Bai Shuangming had high expectations, since he wanted to hide his clumsiness, Bai Shuangming would not force him to do anything.

Bai Shuangming has always been very tolerant of the strangeness of friends.

"So, is it true that Brother Bai is not married?" Xu Buhui, who is on the edge of a horn, still does not give up on this topic.

"It's just a saying." Li Tang, who was completely defeated, said, "What I mean is, Brother Bai loves the sword as much as he loves his wife."

If you don't understand him anymore, you will kill him.

"That's right." Xu Buhui said dejectedly, "I thought I would get the answer today."

"I'm really sorry to disappoint you." Li Tang said without sincerity.

"Ai, fleeting years are not good, and fate is bad!" After Xu Buhui finished speaking, he sighed a few more times.

"Brother Qi's bet on whether he could become the leader also came to an end when Brother Qi got injured and withdrew. As for Brother Bai's marriage, it has been pending. It's really tempting!"

"Co-authoring Boss Xu is a matter of money!" Qi Rong leaned close to Li Tang and whispered.

Li Tang nodded and gave him a thumbs up, this kid has a future.

Could it be a problem with the money, although Xu Buhui did not lose much as the banker, but for this Qian Chuanzi, it must be a huge loss.

Looking at Bai Shuangming who seemed to be unaware of this, Li Tang couldn't help lighting a piece of wax for him in his heart, brother, take care of yourself.

This string of money is pointing at you to make a lot of money back!

"Okay, the time is just right, we can set off." Seeing that everyone seemed to be resting and getting ready, Qi Cheng said with a smile.

"Alright." Li Tang also followed Bai Shuangming's example and picked up the sword.

"By the way, Mr. Xu." Qi Cheng looked at Xu Buhui and said, "I heard that Master Jikong from the Zheng/Fa Temple has also arrived. Since Mr. Xu feels that his luck has declined recently, it is better to ask Master Jikong for advice. Fan, try to wash away the bad luck as soon as possible?"

"Brother Qi," Xu Buhui said painfully, covering his head, "If it's that Master Kong that you and I both know, he should be a monk, right?"

"And a violent monk."

"Who says monks can't be profound in Buddhism? Mr. Xu, this is professional discrimination!" Li Tang said that he was not surprised by violent monks.

After all, the name Zheng/Fa Temple sounds very irritable!

"You..." Xu Buhui was at a loss for words for a moment, and after looking at Qi Cheng and Li Tang for a while, he said tremblingly, "Aren't you willing to play with me?" His fragile heart was hurt.

In this regard, Li Tang directly gave him a look that you are so smart, not to mention, his guess is really not bad.

Seeing that both Qi Cheng and Li Tang used actions instead of words, expressing their unwillingness to take him to play together, the injured Xu Buhui immediately pretended to cry and ran to Bai Shuangming's side.

"Brother Bai, you are not such a person, are you?"

Bai Shuangming: "I am indeed not such a person, but I am such a sword." '

"Let's go together." Bai Shuangming said incredulously.

"Okay then, let's go." Xu Buhui directly borrowed the donkey from the slope.

Li Tang, who was watching the interaction between the two, chose to distance himself silently, then stood on tiptoe and touched Qi Rong's head and said, "Please hold back, Mr. Xu is very vengeful."

The genes of the Qi family are too good. All 15-year-old children are taller than him.

Qi Rong, who suppressed his laughter until his face turned red, nodded madly.

******

Compared with modern times, the housing prices in ancient times can be regarded as conscientious. Just looking at the magnificent area of ​​the Qishan School, you can tell that this school is definitely a fighter among the rich schools.

After being startled for a while, Li Tang suddenly remembered that the houses of the Qishan School seemed to be self-built, and he should say that the land price was more conscientious.

At least it's very conscientious compared to modern times.

Holding large-scale competitions requires not only manpower, but also financial resources, and the Qishan School happens to be neither short of people nor money, so the martial arts conference can be prepared so fully and with pride.

Just as the economy of many countries in later generations was worsened by the Olympic Games, it would definitely be a tragedy if a sect did not have enough financial support to hold a martial arts conference in the Ying Dynasty.

Not to mention the embarrassment of being ridiculed by the crowd, once the impression that a certain sect is too poor is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, it will fall into an endless loop and directly drag down a sect if it affects enrollment.

Fortunately, the Qishan sect doesn't have this trouble, their sect is not short of money.

It wasn't until he actually started to visit that Li Tang realized that if he wanted to visit all the Qishan Schools, it would probably take him about a day.

Unlike the aristocratic sects that settled in the city, the Qishan sect was built on top of Qishan, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that Qishan is their base, so this total time includes the time spent climbing the mountain.

The feeling of Qishan School to Li Tang is more like a group of villas with mountain views, the architectural style is simple and generous, and the ethos of the school is also the same, advocating simplicity and not extravagance.

The rooms where the management and ordinary disciples live are not much different, so there will be no great sense of gap.

After walking around for more than half a circle, Li Tang's breathing became disordered, and his walking also became sluggish. Looking at the others, although Qi Chengbai Shuangming behaved as usual, Qi Rong and Xu Buhui were already slightly sweating.

"Seeing that Mr. Xu is a little tired, why don't we take a rest?" Li Tang said.

"Is there?" Xu Buhui asked after wiping off his sweat.

"Then let's take a rest." Qi Cheng pointed to the pavilion not far away and said, "Let's go over there."

Before the words fell, Xu Buhui had already gone straight there.

"It seems that I am very tired." Bai Shuangming concluded.

"Brother Bai, brother Qi, come quickly!" Xu Buhui waved his hands and shouted.

"Sigh," Li Tang shook his head and said, "So energetic, it doesn't look like he's tired."

Regarding this, Qi Cheng just smiled and said nothing. Seeing that Li Tang was about to walk towards the gazebo, he gently grabbed Li Tang's clothes and left a meaningful sentence: "Next time, don't force yourself when you are tired." Said He patted Li Tang on the shoulder, looked at him grinning, and went to the gazebo with a smile.

Li Tang clutched his poor shoulder distressedly, and couldn't help muttering: "Sure enough, I have a grudge." He seriously doubted whether Qi Cheng had a small book in his head, which would record everything that others offended him.

"Brother Bai?" Qi Rong looked at Bai Shuangming and asked, "Is the relationship between Brother Tang and Brother Tang good?" It is clear that Brother Tang has known his eldest brother for less than a month, so why do they seem so close.

And their intimacy seems even more exaggerated than that of Big Brother Bai who grew up together.

"Huh?" Regarding Qi Rong's question, after thinking for a while, Bai Shuangming replied hesitantly, "Maybe it's because they hit each other very well."

"Yes." Xu Buhui nodded, and then he walked to Bai Shuangming's side and said, "It's the same with Brother Bai."

Qi Rong: "I don't think..." Brother Bai obviously dislikes you, okay? !

Qi Rong has been said more than once that he is heartless and doesn't know how to read people's faces, but as heartless as he is, he can clearly feel the dislike of Big Brother Bai, why can't you accept the reality, Boss Xu?

Ugh!

"What's the matter? Sighing can cause premature aging." Li Tang asked curiously as he watched the trumpet set off and sigh.

Closing eyes is really a wonderful thing. For example, he originally kept a respectful distance from this kind of boy who was about to enter the second stage of middle school, but when he looked at Qi Rong's face, he couldn't help it. I want to tease him.

But this kid has a good temper and is quite funny.

"How could it be?" Qi Rong touched his face, and then asked uncertainly, "Isn't it possible?"

"Why not?" Li Tang said exaggeratedly, "Depressed mood will not only affect health, but also have many effects on skin care and face."

"If you sigh all the time, you might become very sad!" said Ta Kepu, who turned into a magic stick.

Listening to Li Tang seriously fooling his younger brother, Qi Cheng also became amused, these two people get along quite interesting.

"Okay, don't scare him anymore, how can you be so exaggerated." Seeing Qi Rong's half-belief to full-belief, Qi Cheng couldn't help but speak.

"Okay." Li Tang shrugged, looked at Qi Rong and whispered, "The parents have spoken, I won't tease you anymore."

"Brother, look at him." Qi Rong, who just came to his senses, looked at Qi Cheng and complained aggrievedly.

"Young man!" Li Tang shook his head, "Sure enough, it's not funny." He retracted his previous thoughts, and Qi Rong's psychological quality still needs to be improved.

"You two!" Qi Cheng shook his head and said, "I can't help you here."

"Brother?" Just as they rested and were about to continue shopping, they heard a female voice coming from a distance.

And Li Tang's gaze naturally fell on the woman walking towards him in the distance.

Seeing the bright smile on the girl's face, Li Tang couldn't help laughing too, it really was a sweet voice.

Different from Yu Xinrou's dignified and feminine beauty, she looks very pretty, wearing a pink dress that looks more youthful and lively. Seeing her dressed like this, Li Tang immediately thought of those lovely Xiuluos by the West Lake.

However, the title of Senior Brother really has a quack atmosphere!

"It's Junior Sister." Just when Li Tang was about to find out which senior brother she was calling, Qi Cheng automatically and consciously solved his doubts for him.

"Long time no see." After the girl walked in, she said hello to everyone, "I'm Song Zhijin, brother Qi Cheng's direct sister."

Talking and walking to Qi Cheng's side, it seemed to announce their intimate relationship.

Li Tang glanced at her, and then couldn't help but chuckle, it really is a little girl!
