At the end of the Yin period, there was a green bamboo forest.

It was still dark all around, so Nangong Cheng lit a torch and stuck it on the ground.

When it was Mao hour, Ximen Changfeng came.

Nangong Cheng stood up, cupped his fists and said, "Master."

Ximen Changfeng nodded and said, "You came quite early."

Nangong Chengdao: "Master's wife told me that when learning skills from a master, only the apprentice waits for the master, and there is no master waiting for the apprentice. I think what Master's wife said is very reasonable, so the disciple should have come early, and we can't let the master wait for the disciple.

?”

Ximen Changfeng smiled. He was indeed very happy when he heard these words and said: "Okay, remember. If a person wants to become a talent, in addition to talent, he also needs to be diligent. If you are not diligent enough, even if you have extremely high talent, you will not be able to succeed."

It won’t work out in the end.”

Nangong Cheng cupped his fists and said, "Yes, thank you Master for your teaching. Nangong Cheng will keep it in mind and never forget it."

Ximen Changfeng nodded and said: "Today, I will teach you the basics of swordsmanship. Nangong Cheng, there is a sentence you must keep in mind."

Nangong Chengdao: "May I ask Master which sentence it is?"

Ximen Changfeng said: "Those who learn swordsmanship must give up love, so that the level of swordsmanship can be continuously improved."

Nangong Cheng was startled and thought: "Strange, how could the master know what the master would say to me? The master said that to learn the sword, you have to give up love; but the master said that love is the most beautiful thing in the world, and it is not worth giving up love to learn the sword.

.Should I listen to Master or Mistress?" Nangong Cheng lost his mind while thinking about it, and Ximen Changfeng immediately noticed this distraction.

Ximen Changfeng asked: "What were you thinking just now?"

Nangong Cheng was startled and said, "I was thinking about what my wife said."

Ximen Changfeng rolled his eyes and said, "What else did your wife say to you?"

Nangong Chengdao: "My wife said that I should wholeheartedly learn the sword from my master."

Ximen Changfeng nodded and said: "Then you will follow me to learn swordsmanship wholeheartedly and don't let your mind wander again."

Nangong Chengdao: "Yes, Master."

Ximen Changfeng began to talk about why he had to give up love in order to continuously improve his swordsmanship. He said: "I learned swordsmanship when I was eight years old. After seven years of learning, I finally reached the state of having a sword in my heart and a sword in my hand. After that, I no longer have a sword.

Breakthrough, when I was twenty years old, I fell in love with your mistress, and there was no breakthrough in swordsmanship. I gave up the love with your mistress, fell in love with swords again, and finally reached the point where I have a sword in my heart and a sword in my hand when I was forty years old.

There is no realm of swordsmanship. So, remember, if a person is addicted to love, the realm of swordsmanship cannot be improved!"

If Nangong Cheng had not listened to Ye Xiuying before, he might have fully accepted Ximen Changfeng’s views, but now he has some contradictions. So Nangong Cheng, President Ye Xiuying’s words, rebutted Ximen Changfeng and said: "Master, love is the world

Is it worth it to give up love for the most beautiful things and swordsmanship?"

Ximen Changfeng was stunned and his face became a little unhappy. Ximen Changfeng looked at Nangong Cheng and thought: "Nangong Cheng is only ten years old and doesn't understand love at all. Who told him that love is the most beautiful thing in the world?

Ximen Changfeng asked Nangong Chengdao: "Who told you that love is the most beautiful thing in the world? Is it your grandfather?"

Nangong Cheng shook his head and said, "No, it was my wife who told me."

Ximen Changfeng was a little angry now. He suppressed the anger in his heart and said to Nangong Cheng: "Tell me everything your wife said to you today!"

"Yes." Nangong Cheng responded, and then he explained exactly what Ye Xiuying told him yesterday.

He told Ximen Changfeng.

Ximen Changfeng got up and left angrily, heading towards Ye Xiuying's residence. Ximen Changfeng thought to himself: "You Ye Xiuying, how dare you destroy my descendants, I will never spare you today."

Nangong Chengdao: "Where is Master going?"

Ximen Changfeng did not answer.

Nangong Cheng looked at Ximen Changfeng who was so angry that he wanted to kill someone, and he felt something was wrong, so he followed Ximen Changfeng. Nangong Cheng thought to himself: "If Master really wants to kill someone, I must find a way to stop it.

"

Ximen Changfeng walked to the bamboo house where Ye Xiuying lived. Ximen Changfeng never went to Ye Xiuying before because he was afraid of rekindling his old love for Ye Xiuying. Ye Xiuying lived on the top of the Green Bamboo Peak, and he lived in the Green Bamboo Forest.

The two places are four or five miles apart. But this time he came to Ye Xiuying for Nangong Cheng.

Ximen Changfeng came to the door of the bamboo house where Ye Xiuying lived and opened the door directly.

Nangong Cheng also followed and walked in.

The items in Ye Xiuying's bamboo house are very simple. There is a bamboo bed. Ten steps away from the bamboo bed is a bamboo table. There are four benches beside the bamboo table. The direction in which Nangong Cheng and Ximen Changfeng entered was right opposite the bamboo table.

, Ye Xiuying was sitting on a bench making tea and drinking tea. When she saw Ximen Changfeng and Nangong Cheng coming in, she smiled coldly and said: "It's you! What's wrong with you looking for me so early in the morning?

?”

Ximen Changfeng said: "Why did you say those words to Nangong Cheng?"

Ye Xiuying was stunned for a moment, then looked at Nangong Cheng and asked softly: "Does your master know?"

Nangong Cheng nodded.

Ye Xiuying looked at Ximen Changfeng and thought: "Now that you know everything, then I can't show weakness." So she said to Ximen Changfeng: "It's very simple, I just don't want Nangong Cheng to become like you!

"

Ximen Changfeng became angry and said loudly: "Isn't it bad to be like me?" Ximen Changfeng pointed at Nangong Cheng and said loudly to Ye Xiuying: "He is my descendant, and he should be like me."

Ye Xiuying also said loudly: "No! I will never let the second Ximen Changfeng appear in the world!"

Ximen Changfeng said: "What did you say? If you dare, say it again!"

"I will never let a second Ximen Changfeng appear in the world!" Ye Xiuying repeated it loudly.

Ximen Changfeng raised his bamboo sword and pointed it at Ye Xiuying.

Ye Xiuying said: "Do you want to kill me?"

Ximen Changfeng said: "If you stop me from training Nangong Cheng, I will kill you!"

Ye Xiuying smiled, and two lines of tears flowed from her eyes. They were tears of despair. Ye Xiuying said: "Okay, you kill me! I deserve to die! How could I fall in love with you because I am blind? Why don't I do Emei for you?"

Sect leader! I thought I could get your love, but what about you? After you got me, you chose to love the sword again, Ximen Changfeng, I hate you!"

Ximen Changfeng's hand holding the sword began to tremble.

Ye Xiuying walked towards Ximen Changfeng and said: "Come on! Come and kill me! Haven't you already reached the point where you have no sword in your hand but a sword in your heart? Can't you kill people with sword energy? Let me see it.

!Come on! Use your sword energy to kill me!"

Ximen Changfeng was a little moved, but in the end he couldn't bear it anymore. He said: "If you no longer care about Nangong Cheng, I will let you go!"

Ye Xiuying said loudly: "Don't even think about it! Let me say it again, I will never let Nangong Cheng become the second Ximen Changfeng."

"Okay, you forced me!" Ximen Changfeng took back his bamboo sword tremblingly.

"Come on!" Ye Xiuying closed her eyes

eyes, waiting for death to come.

Nangong Cheng knew that Ximen Changfeng would thrust out his sword next, and Ye Xiuying would die under Ximen Changfeng's sword. He could never let this happen, so he rushed over and knocked Ye Xiuying down.

Ye Xiuying still remembered.

Nangong Cheng held Ye Xiuying down and said, "Master Wife, leave the next thing to me!" After saying that, Nangong Cheng knelt in front of Ximen Changfeng and in front of Ye Xiuying.

Ximen Changfeng was really surprised when he saw this unexpected situation, but he was a sword god and had seen the world, so he could deal with such unexpected situations calmly. So Ximen Changfeng quickly regained his composure, and he said to Nangong Chengdao:

"Get out of the way!"

Nangong Chengdao: "Master, you cannot kill Master's wife."

Ximen Changfeng said: "Okay, give me a reason not to kill her."

Nangong Cheng thought for a while and said: "If my wife dies under the master's sword for me, then I will live in pain and self-blame all my life. This will hinder my sword practice, so I can't let the master kill me."

Master’s Wife.”

Ximen Changfeng thought the same thing, so he put his sword back and said to Ye Xiuying: "Ye Xiuying, if you continue to hinder me from teaching Nangong Cheng how to practice swordsmanship, I will never get around you!"

Ye Xiuying looked at Nangong Cheng and said to Ximen Changfeng: "Don't worry! I will never stop you from teaching Nangong Cheng how to practice swordsmanship in the future! Because I firmly believe that Nangong Cheng will never become a person like you."

"As long as you no longer hinder me from teaching Nangong Cheng how to practice swordsmanship, we'll see if Nangong Cheng becomes a person like me." Ximen Changfeng walked out of the house.

"Changfeng!" Ye Xiuying shouted to Ximen Changfeng.

Ximen Changfeng stopped and glanced at Ye Xiuying. Seeing Ye Xiuying's tearful eyes, he immediately looked away and said, "Do you have anything else?"

Ye Xiuying said: "I have been waiting for the former Ximen Changfeng to come back. That is my husband, not the sword god. Can you tell me when he will come back?"

Ximen Changfeng closed his eyes and said: "The former Ximen Changfeng will never come back again!" After saying that, Ximen Changfeng walked out of the bamboo house.

The huge feeling of oppression disappeared, and Nangong Cheng breathed a sigh of relief. He immediately turned around and knelt in front of Ye Xiuying, saying: "Master's wife, it's all Nangong Cheng's fault that caused Master's wife to almost die under the master's sword." Then he kowtowed and said.

:"sorry Sorry……"

Ye Xiuying smiled and said: "Okay, I don't blame you! On the contrary, I want to thank you for saving my life!"

Nangong Cheng smiled and said, "Master's wife, if there is nothing else, I will leave first."

"Wait a minute!" Ye Xiuying poured a bowl of tea and handed it to Nangong Cheng, "The tea here is good! When you are free in the future, you can come to the teacher's place to drink tea."

"Yes, Mistress." Nangong Cheng drank the bowl of tea and said, "Then I'm leaving!"

Ye Xiuying nodded and said: "Master, I would like to give you one last word. You will not be able to refute your master again in the future. Do you understand?"

Nangong Cheng nodded. After this incident, Nangong Cheng secretly made a decision in his heart. From now on, if he can lie to the master about anything that can cause quarrels between the master and his wife, he will lie to the master. Anyway, the master said that swordsmen should be sincere.

The sword does not need to be honest to others.

Ye Xiuying said: "Then let's go!"

"Yes." Nangong Cheng left.
