Unparalleled Double Harmony

Chapter 157
It is widely recognized in the world that there are "two big villas" in the world today, one in the south and the other in the north.

The one to the north is Liaodong Shendao Villa, while the one to the south is Wujian Villa located in the south of the Lingnan area.

If it is said that Shendao Villa gives people the feeling of prestige, wealth and power, and domineering...then Wujian Villa is just the opposite, and the word "mystery" is everywhere in it.

Unlike "Sword Invincible Song", Xiao Zhun, the owner of Wujian Villa, "Sword Instructor", has always been extremely low-key; At least I only saw him once or twice.

But this...doesn't hinder people's evaluation of Xiao Zhun.

Anyone who has seen Xiao Zhun make a move will have the same feeling about his swordsmanship - standard.

It's not exquisite, overbearing, or weird...it's "standard", which is rigorous, precise, and harmonious like mathematics.

His every move seems so "correct", so just right...

Not only the posture, speed, strength and other things that can be seen at a glance, but also the tightening and releasing of every strand of muscle fiber, every breathing that matches the internal strength and moves, and the flow and movement of every trace of internal force... also Not light or heavy, neither deep nor shallow, neither more nor less.

You can't find even a single "mistake" in his sword moves, so his swordsmanship: no mistakes, no flaws, and no flaws.

His title of "Sword Instructor" may sound trivial, but it is actually much stronger than those like "Qingtian", "Three Arms", and "Wuying"; It is second only to the title of "Sword God" and "Sword Master".

As the name suggests, Xiao Zhun is a person who can "teach swordsmen all over the world what swordsmanship is".

Anyone who uses a sword, as long as he learns from him, or imitates him, will not be "wrong", and the closer he learns to him, the closer he is to the so-called "correct answer".

Therefore, there is an endless stream of swordsmen who come to Wujian Villa every year to ask him for advice.

Xiao Zhun also set the rules——

Seek the sword first give up the sword, know the sword before asking the sword.

You need to know the sword to practice the sword, and it takes a long time to understand the sword.

Just these four lines of characters, engraved directly on the stone tablet at the gate of Wujian Villa.

When it comes to specifics, the key point is actually the first sentence, "ask for the sword first, give up the sword", which means... If you want to come to my Wujian Villa to ask my sword master to guide you, you must first learn both your sword skills and the sword. Leave it to me, and follow me to learn from the basics again.

But if you are a person with "zero foundation" and no martial arts, Wujian Villa will not accept you, because this kind of person is not considered a swordsman at all, and has no sword to give up, or no swordsmanship to offer.

In addition, Wujian Villa also does not want people with very poor strength, such as those who only know a set of third-rate swordsmanship and have not practiced it well, because such people most likely have no qualifications, and they can't teach them anything. , Going out will only ruin the reputation of the villa.

As for the few people who have successfully entered the villa, if one day they feel that they have learned enough, the owner of the villa will not stop them from leaving. Things that are far away and possibly hopeless for a lifetime force you to stay.

Wujian Villa is such a holy place that seems to be indifferent to the world and exists only for those who pursue swordsmanship.

At least... on the surface.

However, what is the reality?We don't want to keep it up here anymore, anyway, everyone knows about this turning point and has been waiting for a long time.

This Xiao Zhun is naturally ambitious.

Over the years, in the name of enlightening and teaching swords, he has collected the world's precious swords and sword techniques, and enlisted the world's swordsmen as disciples. Although there is part of the true meaning of "seeking the Tao", he undoubtedly has the desire to dominate the martial arts.

Of course, his idea is different from Gu Qiying and Shen Youran's Yin Sanlu. Xiao Zhun's idea is more simple and direct: Let me be invincible first!
Ladies and gentlemen, have you ever heard a saying - "Lily of the valley has no apex".

It's the same in Jianghu, no one can become the real overlord, not even the leader of martial arts.

Even for that unrivaled hero and the proud son of heaven, it is extremely difficult to be able to "a decade" in the rivers and lakes at a certain period of his life.

With ten years as the boundary, the tide of the times will definitely push another person up to replace you... Standing on that peak, even if that person doesn't have that intention, this will still happen.

What about "Invincible"?

Where is anyone truly "invincible"?As long as you are a human being, there will be a time when you will die. As long as the timing is right, a powerless person may easily take your life.

But how many people in the Jianghu can understand this matter?How many of those who can understand this matter are not pretending to be confused and deceiving themselves?

Xiao Zhun, at the age of 50, that is, last year, encountered the biggest bottleneck in his life's martial arts journey. In about half a year, his martial arts did not improve at all.

One night, Xiao Zhun was anxious and depressed, so he walked alone to the forbidden area of ​​the villa, danced wildly with his sword, and split the mountain and rocks while venting his anger.

Unexpectedly, this action made him accidentally discover that under the rock crust and vegetation on the surface of the mountain wall, there are several lines of messages from the ancestors of the villa.

On it, a banned and forgotten secret technique is recorded:

First of all, the swords of the 49 swordsmen in Qiqi were used as the base material, and the blood of the 49 swordsmen in Qiqi was used as the guide, and they were soaked in the sword casting pool of Wujian Villa for melting, and then the legendary "colorful swordsmanship" was used as the base material. "Glass glue" is condensed and integrated into one, that is, a huge piece of "blood iron".

Then, beat every day after sunset, and stop when the cock crows, and continue to beat for 49 consecutive nights. After the blood iron is only the size of a sword, the "blood sword embryo" is completed. .

Then, within seven days after the "sword fetus" was first formed, use this sword to kill another seven or forty-nine swordsmen, so as to "start the front", so... "Blood Sword" will be completed.

As soon as the sword is released, the sky and the earth tremble, ghosts and gods startle.

At the moment when the sword is completed, the sword master will have the sword power of all the souls who have died under the sword so far, and it can be integrated and gathered together to reach the extreme.

The blood sword is successful, and the sword demon is also successful. In the whole world, no one can be enemy.

Even if the above record is true, it can be seen at a glance that it is a kind of sorcery.

Ordinarily, people like Xiao Zhun don't need to engage in these things...

Even if he doesn't become number one in the world, even if he stays in the current state all his life, he is still a super-class expert, infinitely close to the "excellent top" master.

It's a pity that there is often only a thin line between seeking the Tao and becoming a demon.

It can be seen from Xiao Zhun's swordsmanship that he is a person who pursues "perfection", and the more such a person is, the easier it is to fall into extremes.

He didn't care whether the secret technique was real or not, and he didn't care whether it was magic or not, anyway, he believed it.

Afterwards, Xiao Zhun began to secretly recruit troops... People like Kang Haijiao and Terashima Koping, who are not very popular, but not bad in martial arts, are exactly what he wants.

Of course, Xiao Zhun would not tell these executors all the information about the "Blood Sword", he just gave them the task to collect the sword and blood of the swordsman; The person involved in this matter, in other places, there are also people who are performing the same tasks as them, and like them, they disguised this matter as an ordinary "river and lake duel, swordsman contest", and outsiders will not get to the bottom of them What is the purpose of grabbing the sword? After all, taking away the weapon of a dead opponent is not a very special thing in the world.

…………

Kang Haijiao actually didn't know much, so it didn't take him long to tell everything he knew.

Sun Yixie finally summed it up in his heart, in fact, in one sentence - Xiao Zhun, the owner of Wujian Villa, has been secretly collecting swordsmen's swords and blood since several months ago.

As for the conspiracy behind this, it's hard to say...but there must be, and it might be very big, otherwise there is no need for him to use people like Kang Haijiao and Si Dao as the "sword instructing master".

"That's it?" After listening to this, Sun Yixie deliberately put on such an expression, and said to Kang Haijiao, "Do you want to change your life?"

"Ah? Sun Shaoxia, Xiao Zhun is one of the best swordsmen in the martial arts, and Wujian Villa is also one of the second villas in the world. I sold such a big man, isn't that enough?" Kang Haijiao asked back with his eyes widened.

"Not enough." Sun Yixie crossed his hands in front of his chest, and continued with an attitude of haggling at the fish market, "Si Dao is dead now, and there is no evidence to prove it. How do I know if your words are true or false? What you said... ...is there proof?"

"Yes! Yes, yes, yes..." Kang Haijiao first said yes, then thought about it, and said, "According to the master... oh no... Xiao Zhun's order, every time Shi Dao and I collect four swords, we will To send the swords to a Splicer; before tonight we had fifteen swords in all, of which I gave the Splicer twelve, and now I have three more, if counted At this moment, the one in Terashima's hand is another four..." He paused, and said in a deep voice, "Sun Shaoxia, Lin Shaoxia... I can use the name of 'send the sword' to take you to that joint tonight There, as long as you hide in the dark and listen to us, you will know that everything I just said is true."

"Oh...that's it." Sun Yixie nodded pretendingly, then turned to look at Lin Yuancheng, "Brother Lin, this muddy water...can you wade through it?"

This question must be asked first.

Because Lin Yuancheng stepped on the "Qixionghui" point this time as a spy of Xingyimen, it stands to reason that he has nothing to do with the current matter at all, and there is no need for him to take the risk of further investigation.

Anyway, Kang Haijiao has revealed the name of his master now, if Lin Yuancheng doesn't want to cause trouble again, he can kill him with a sword now, and be more careful with Xiao Zhun in the future.

Of course...

"Wujian Villa..." Lin Yuancheng's eyes became a little subtle when he said these words.

Back then, Lin Yuancheng, who had just killed his master, had actually considered going to Wujian Villa, but in the end he gave up, because he had to "give up his sword" first, and Lin Yuancheng's situation was very special—if he chose to give up that "Seven Star Sword Art", wouldn't it be exposed that he is Fan Zhengting's apprentice?And if he abandons the "Ling Yutan" created by himself, people will definitely question, how could such a superb swordsmanship be created by you, a 14-year-old boy?

After much deliberation, this one of the "Second Villages in the World" is really not easy to get into. For a person like Lin Yuancheng who had an ulterior childhood, if someone asks him about something and he can't explain clearly, they won't let him go. , it is even more troublesome.

However, Lin Yuancheng has always cared about the title of "Sword Instructor". If Xiao Zhun hadn't lived in seclusion, he wouldn't have attended the Young Heroes' Meeting, the sword discussions of various sword sects, and all kinds of alliance meetings... Lin Yuancheng had long thought I took the opportunity to ask him for advice.

But I didn't expect that now people have heard of the conspiracy related to it before seeing it, so how could Lin Yuancheng not investigate it.

"Brother Sun, this matter... Even if you don't go, I will go." Lin Yuancheng said, "You don't have to worry about me."

Sun Yixie heard it, and said in his heart: Am I worried about you?I am a little worried about myself now!That Wujian Villa is a bit off-putting when you hear it, you kid can’t say nothing, give me a step down, and then we two will kill this Kanghaijiao, won’t it be over?

But what's in my heart can't be said.

Sun Yixie could only pretend to be calm, and smiled slightly: "Oh... yes." He looked at Kang Haijiao again, "Then let's walk with you again and see how you talk."
