[Xianjian + Ancient Sword Colleague] Being a master is also a kind of practice

Let's say that Han Xiuning didn't pay attention for a while, and blurted out the secrets of the family that his father revealed last night. Although she and Baili Wushang were the only two in the room, recalling Han Li's earnest warning when he told her about it, Han Xiu Ning couldn't help feeling a little regretful.She glanced at Baili Wushang anxiously, and as soon as her gaze touched his warm eyes glowing with soft light, she couldn't help feeling hot, and said in her heart: Why should I be so worried?Brother Wushang has always been prudent, he will definitely not talk nonsense, not to mention that he is the witch Zhu of the clan, so would it be detrimental to our clan?

Precisely at this moment, Baili Wushang asked again and again: "Not to mention the other six places, what is sealed in the Bingyan Cave? My family has lived in Wumengling Valley for thousands of years just to protect it. How important is it?"

Han Xiuning hurriedly shook his hand at him, telling him not to ask any more questions, then got up and looked carefully inside and outside the house to make sure that no one was peeping nearby, and then returned to Baili Wushang and sat down next to him , hesitated for a while before whispering: "Brother Wushang, this is a big secret in our clan. My father said that this secret has never been known by more than two people in the clan, and it was dictated by the previous great witch Zhu to the successor. , passed down from generation to generation, and must not be leaked to irrelevant people.”

Baili Wushang saw that her expression was serious, not like the playful look in the past, so he couldn't help becoming serious. Hearing her say this, although he was a little frustrated, he said empathetically, "If that's the case, then don't mention it again. I also But if you're curious, don't worry about it."

Han Xiuning leaned on his arm, turned his head sideways to see his face, and couldn't help asking: "Brother Wushang, I can't tell you, are you angry?"

Baili Wushang suddenly smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to scratch her nose, and said: "Don't worry, I will never be angry with Xiu Ning." His tone was gentle and his manner was friendly, as expected he had no grudges.

Han Xiuning's eyes immediately burst into a bright light. Baili Wushang had done similar things to her when she was young, but as she got older, such intimate actions became less and less. In order to make her happy, he repeated the scene of the year, how could Han Xiuning not be happy?A smile flickered across her pursed lips. In order to hide the excitement in her heart, she hurriedly lowered her head, staring blankly at the pair of light green embroidered shoes on her feet, but her legs could not help but sway slightly. She looked at She was lost in embroidering the shoes for a while, and suddenly remembered that these shoes were given to her by Lin Qing'er. The silk and satin used to make the shoes were exchanged from people in the Central Plains, and they are very precious in Dali City. There are only a few pairs, but she took out the most exquisite pair and gave it to herself, which shows that Qing'er treats her kindly.Thinking of Lin Qing'er, Han Xiuning thought to himself: Sister Qing'er...why did she and Daddy go for so long?When she entered the Bingyan Cave, she must have seen the sword too. I wonder if Dad will tell her the secret?Well, if you don't tell her, how can she help? ... Then this matter was known by three people, and one of them was a foreigner... But Sister Qing'er is so kind, she will definitely not tell others casually, but the puppet mother-in-law who can't hide it is another What's going on... Daddy can tell Sister Qing'er, so why can't I tell Brother Wushang, he asked so urgently, I must really want to know, he...was he really not angry just now?

Thinking about it, she couldn't help but peeked at Baili Wushang again, he was thinking about something with his eyes downcast, his brows were slightly frowned, and he seemed quite distressed.Han Xiuning's eyes lingered on his handsome side face for a long time, secretly made up his mind, and finally said: "Brother Wushang, don't be unhappy, although...Although Daddy said that you can't tell the secrets of the clan, but He didn't say that you can't tell stories. I... Let me tell you a story, okay? But you must never tell it to others. "

Baili Wushang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Okay, I won't tell others, only the two of us know this story."

Han Xiuning hummed, thinking that this was a secret between the two of them, his heart was sweetened, he pursed his lips into a smile, moved closer to him, and said in a low voice, "Then let's talk quietly. This story happened in a long, long time. In the past, as long as the ancient times, before the emperor Fuxi established the God Realm, there were many tribes on the earth. Some of those tribes hated each other and fought continuously, and some lived in a corner and isolated from the world. It is a very small branch among them, and it was able to thrive on that land because of the protection of the Nuwa Empress, and it has escaped many natural and man-made disasters." She put her hands on her chest and said with respect, "Because In this way, my family has believed in Empress Nuwa for generations. Without her, our family would not be where we are today. So many powerful ancient tribes have been annihilated in the years, only the Wu Clan has survived to this day. This is the blessing of Empress Nuwa. .” As he spoke, he stood up and bowed deeply in the direction of the statue of Nuwa.

Baili Wushang also stood up and followed her to salute, and the two sat back in their seats after a while.

Han Xiuning sat down and continued: "At that time, there was a place called Anyi. The people who lived there were very brave and good at fighting. Their leader was... called Chi You, and he was a brave warrior who could even defeat the gods. His brother, Xiangyuan, is an unparalleled swordsmith in the world. It is said that there are many powerful spells in their family, and one of them is a formation called the blood-smeared formation. This formation can transfer the souls of all living beings. Xiangyuan uses blood to smear He used the ancient spirit stone to cast the soul stone to preserve the soul, and finally poured it into the sword he forged, giving birth to the world's first sword, the ancestor sword."

"Ancestor Sword..." Baili Wushang repeated in a murmur, with a pensive look on his face, the first sword in the human world was actually made of living souls, and it drew out the living souls and stored them. Why is Fazi somewhat...somewhat familiar?

Han Xiuning said again: "Although the ancestor sword was made by mortals, it is so powerful that it can even injure Fuxi's genus, and because of this it caused Fuxi's wrath, and the Anyi family was slaughtered by him. But even the immortal gods are beyond their power. Although most of the blood of that family has withered, it has not been cut off. Instead, it has left a side branch. That blood left Anyi and hid for many years. Gradually They recuperated and formed a tribe named Longyuan. They kept in mind the hatred of being slaughtered by the gods and gods, and always wanted to kill the gods for revenge. The sword casting method left by Xiangyuan became the biggest help for their revenge. Finally, in this Seven fierce swords were forged in the hands of the family, which respectively controlled the seven powers of gold, wood, water, fire, earth, yin, and yang. The day when these seven swords were forged was the time for their revenge. It was so shocking... But in the end, mortals still couldn't compete with the gods, and the Longyuan tribe could not escape... Anyi's sword casting method was unique, but it was eventually annihilated. Empress Nuwa didn't want these seven swords The sword and the sword-making method disappeared together, so they were sealed in the seven corners of the human world for safekeeping, but because of this reason, she had a disagreement with the great god Fuxi, and had to lead the crowd to leave the God Realm to hide in Youdu. It's never been seen since..."

"Youdu?" Baili Wushang asked.

Han Xiuning nodded: "I don't know where Youdu is. I only heard from my father that it's in a very deep place underground. I don't know how the tribe of Empress Nuwa lives there. Alas, I don't see the sun. It was very hard." She paused and continued, "They hid underground, but the seven swords and the seal remained on the ground. In order to prevent the fierce sword from harming people, Empress Nuwa sent a tribe to guard outside the seal. , our Lingwu Clan has accepted this mission and stayed here for thousands of years. I don’t know what the swords in the other six seals are called, but the sword sealed in the Bingyan Cave is called Fen Ji. The sword that controls the firepower, all the cold air in the Bingyan Cave is used to suppress it, so the cave is not too cold or hot, but in the past few years, I have been in it several times with my father, and I always feel that it is getting hotter and hotter inside. Dad said that the seal is not stable, he probably meant this. He wanted to strengthen the seal to prevent the fierce energy on the sword from leaking out and hurting people."

Baili Wushang remembered that when he accompanied Xiu Ning into the Bingyan Cave when he was young, he saw a huge stone sword standing in the cave. At that time, he thought it was very strange, but now he suddenly realized.He murmured: "Fen Ji...the ancient fierce sword that even Empress Nuwa is reluctant to destroy, must be a very rare fairy sword?"

While the two were talking, the wooden door of the outer room creaked suddenly, and footsteps came in.Then there was a voice of people: "...Descendants of Nuwa, thanks to your help this time, if not for you and this Holy Spirit Orb, I'm afraid... Sigh, cough cough, cough cough!" All the unfinished words turned into a rush of coughing, it was Han Li.

Han Xiuning and Baili Wushang looked at each other, and they both saw a hint of horror in each other's eyes.They all heard that Han Li's voice was very different after returning from the Bingyan Cave. Not only was it much faster, but he was also out of breath, as if he had been seriously injured.Hearing that he was coughing so badly, Han Xiuning hurriedly jumped up from his seat and ran to the outer room, shouting: "Daddy, what's wrong with you?"

Baili Wushang hurriedly got up and followed out, walked out of the back room, only to see Han Li was leaning on the main seat, and a girl in Tsing Yi was sitting next to her, it was Lin Qing'er.He only glanced at Lin Qing'er, then looked at Han Li again, and saw that the master was stroking his chest with one hand, and tightly grasping the armrest of the seat with the other hand, bent over and coughing, and Han Xiuning was standing beside him , full of panic, looked down suddenly, and exclaimed: "Father, daddy, you vomit blood! Brother Wushang, you... Come and see, what's wrong with my daddy?"

Baili Wushang rushed forward quickly, and sure enough, he saw a puddle of blood on Han Li's lapel, and a little dark red stain on his lips. Han Xiuning stretched out his sleeve to wipe it for him, but it wiped more and more. The little face suddenly turned pale with fright, turned to look at Baili Wushang in panic, and said in a trembling voice: "Brother Wushang, my father... my father..."

Suddenly, an angry voice interrupted her, and Han Li whispered: "Don't... don't make a fuss, Xiu Ning, help me... help me up..."

Han Xiuning hurriedly worked together with Baili Wushang to straighten him, and sat back against the chair.Han Li closed his eyes and adjusted his breath for a while, his complexion turned slightly rosy again, only to hear him whisper: "... Wushang."

Baili Wushang hurriedly said, "The disciple is here."

Han Li still hadn't opened his eyes, and said: "You...you send Nuwa's descendant to rest in the room, she...she has helped our clan a lot, she is the great benefactor of our Lingwu clan...don't take it lightly... "

Baili Wushang replied: "Yes, this disciple knows." After speaking, he turned to Lin Qing'er, and couldn't help being startled.I saw Lin Qing'er sitting on the chair, also looking sluggish, her haggard appearance was completely different from yesterday.Although she didn't vomit blood, her face was blue and white, her cheeks were slightly sunken, it was obviously worn out, not much better than Han Li.

Baili Wushang hurriedly helped her up, sent her to the quiet room next door to lie down on the bed, Lin Qing'er leaned on the pillow and nodded slightly to thank him, her voice was also inaudible.Baili Wushang exited the quiet room and returned to the main room. Before stepping into the door, he heard Han Li's weak voice: "...Even with the spiritual power of Empress Nuwa, the seal...can't last long. In more than ten years, I have to... Cough cough, I'm afraid Daddy won't be able to wait, Xiu Ning, you... You have to support the great responsibility of our spirit witch clan. After I die, you will be the great witch Zhu in the clan. Can't...can't mess around anymore..."

Han Xiuning said urgently: "Father, what are you talking about, you...you won't die, didn't you say you were only injured a little bit?" After speaking, he actually cried a little.

Han Li seemed to sigh, and said in a low voice: "People are always going to die, and Wu Zhu in our clan can't live for many years...you have to remember...remember what father told you, After more than ten years, we will have to rely on you and Wushang..."

The sound in the room gradually fell silent, only Han Xiuning's low cry was faintly heard.Baili Wushang stood stiffly outside the house, advancing or retreating, and his heart was even more confused: Master's tone is so ominous, could it be... is he explaining the funeral?What happened in the ice cave?
