()Chu Huan fought Xiao Chen in the Enchanting Hall, although he finally killed Xiao Chen, but he still had fresh memories of Xiao Chen's strange and versatile sword skills.

He didn't think that Xiao Chen's sword skills were showy. In fact, Chu Huan was shocked by Xiao Chen's strange and versatile sword skills, and even had a feeling of sudden enlightenment in his mind.

Chu Huan practiced swordsmanship, and his swordsmanship was simple and solid, while Xiao Chen's swordsmanship paid attention to changes. Chu Huan always felt that he had opened up a new path based on the knowledge of swordsmanship. This path is still very vague, but he I always feel like I've caught something.

Although his sword technique is not weak, it has not reached the level of sword technique. As a swordsman, Qiu Ruxue is naturally proficient in all kinds of sword techniques. He really hopes to find a breakthrough from Qiu Ruxue, to be able to Let your own seemingly blurred path become a little clearer.

Qiu Ruxue hesitated for a moment, but Chu Huan had already got up, and said, "Brother Qiu, wait a moment." After leaving the door, he came back soon, with a knife in his hand, which was taken from the guard outside the door , pulled out the knife, put the scabbard aside, held the sharp blade, pondered for a moment, and suddenly made a movement, the speed was very fast, the blade was originally facing the left, but in the blink of an eye, it was already facing the right, the speed The speed is appalling.

Qiu Ruxue didn't even see clearly how Huan was moving, but he had studied the sword technique very deeply, but he could see that the speed of changing the blade so quickly was really amazing. At least he had practiced for decades, but he seemed to be difficult to do.

When Chu Huan showed this move, Qiu Ruxue knew that Chu Huan was not lying. Without hesitation, he approached and asked curiously, "Master Chu, can you demonstrate the move you just made?"

Lin Daier saw two men here studying her saber techniques, and she seemed to have forgotten her existence. She didn't care whether others cared about her, but seeing Chu Huan draw Qiu Ruxue to her with a few words, she felt a little bit in her heart. Oddly enough, I also felt a little dizzy at this moment, got up and said, "Brother Qiu, please leave first, little sister, so I won't disturb you."

At this time, Qiu Ruxue was obviously attracted by Chu Huan's hand. Hearing Lin Dai'er's voice, he didn't look back, but said, "Miss Lin, do as you please!" : "Master Chu, please demonstrate again."

Lin Daier looked at Chu Huan, only to see that Chu Huan was also looking at her, with a strange smile on her angular face, as if she was provoking Lin Daier, Lin Daier was annoyed , and glared at him, but she had an outstanding flair and a charming flair, and then she turned around and went out.

Seeing Lin Dai'er leaving, Chu Huan re-demonstrated the move, slowing down a lot so that Qiu Ruxue could see clearly.

Seeing this, Qiu Ruxue showed surprise, took Chu Huan's saber, and tried to do this move, but only halfway through, the saber was so hard to control that he almost let go.

For those who practice swords, the first element of using a sword is to be able to fully grasp the sword in their hands. Once the sword in their hands cannot be fully controlled, it will be a failure.

Qiu Ruxue knew that he had missed this move, and he was even more amazed. He could see that this knife was not too difficult, mainly because he used the flexible movement of his wrist, but he really wanted to try it, but he didn't. It's not as simple as I thought.

"Brother Qiu, this move is the most basic and the simplest one." Chu Huan said solemnly, "I couldn't control it at all at first, and I practiced hundreds of times before I got what I have now. Appearance, but still can't be regarded as fully mastered, what do you think of this move?"

Qiu Ruxue said: "If it is used in actual combat, it can completely catch the opponent by surprise. The speed of this change is too fast, and it is difficult for the opponent to react." Knowing what, he was surprised: "Master Chu, what do you mean? , this trick is just the most common one?"

Chu Huan nodded and said, "That's right. Brother Qiu, I know you are proficient in sword skills, so I asked you to discuss...!"

Qiu Ruxue frowned and said, "Master Chu, such a brilliant sword technique is not easy to show to others. Do you...do you trust Qiu too much?"

Chu Huan said with a smile: "Because this saber technique is a bit weird, I asked Brother Qiu to discuss it together. Although I don't have much contact with Brother Qiu, Brother Qiu is a man of faith. It’s not a bad thing if you really fully comprehend it. The sword skills of the predecessors are meant to allow future generations to break through. If Brother Qiu and I are really lucky enough to be able to comprehend some new ways in the sword skills, I think the masters of the predecessors should be Would love to see."

Qiu Ruxue sighed, and said: "Master Chu is really different from other officials." After a pause, he finally said: "Master Chu, Qiu can't make any promises to you, but he can stay by your side for the time being. , although there are many masters around you, you really don’t need Qiu to protect you, but if there is an accident, Qiu can help...!" Then he laughed: "But the ugly words must be said first, Master Chu wants to hire Qiu. The commission for a certain protection and hatred is quite a lot!"

Chu Huan laughed loudly and said, "If one day Chu can't pay the commission, brother Qiu should leave as soon as possible, and I won't keep you by my side at that time."

Only then did Qiu Ruxue say: "Lord Chu, your move just now changed extremely quickly. It is indeed a coup, but there is a huge flaw in it!"

Chu Huan raised his eyebrows and said, "Please enlighten me!"

"Insufficient strength." Qiu Ruxue said solemnly: "Master Chu, the change of move just now was indeed exquisite, but during the change, don't you feel that the change was too fast, which directly led to a great weakening of strength? "

Chu Huan secretly praised in his heart that Qiu Ruxue, as a swordsman, is not a vegetarian, so he explained the flaws in one word, nodded and said: "Brother Qiu really hits the nail on the head."

Qiu Ruxue frowned and said: "This is just my personal opinion...!" He seemed to be thinking about something, and after a while he said: "If you can maintain a certain strength at such a speed of change, its power will be astonishing. Knife and sword It's different, one of the most important advantages of the sword is that it is thick and natural, and it can bring out a person's sense of power...!" Speaking of this, Qiu Ruxue looked thoughtful again.

Chu Huan raised his hand to let Qiu Ruxue sit down, and after a while, Qiu Ruxue said: "Master Chu, I think there must be some other changes in your saber technique, we might as well study it and see if there are any changes in it. What kind of changes are combined with the sense of power of the saber technique itself? When we use a saber, we focus on the actual effect, not on the show. If we seek the fastest change in the saber style under the premise of maintaining strength, it must be remarkable."

Chu Huan said solemnly: "Brother Qiu is right."

Qiu Ruxue thought for a while, and then said: "Master Chu, if you want to really form a routine for this saber technique, you always have to remove some and keep some. Miss Lin should be very clear about the pros and cons of this saber technique. If she can participate in the discussion, there should be a bigger breakthrough...!"

Chu Huan was startled, and wondered, "Why did Brother Qiu say that?"

Qiu Ruxue was also startled, and asked back: "Master Chu, didn't Miss Lin teach you this set of saber techniques?"

Chu Huan was a little dazed for a moment, and asked suspiciously: "Brother Qiu, do you think this set of saber techniques was taught by Miss Lin? You...why do you have such an idea? Could it be...have you seen her saber techniques?"

Qiu Ruxue frowned slightly, and said, "Lord Chu, if it wasn't for Miss Lin, where did you learn about this weird sword technique? To tell you the truth, your unusual change of move has been used by Qiu for many years. Before, I once saw someone showing off, but now that I think about it, it is still clearly in my mind, and I haven't forgotten it at all."

Chu Huan was even more surprised, leaning forward slightly, and asked, "Brother Qiu, have you ever seen this kind of saber technique?"

"That happened more than ten years ago." Qiu Ruxue sighed: "At that time, I was not well-known in the Jianghu, and my favorite thing to do was to visit famous swordsmen in the world and ask them for advice on swordsmanship." method." After thinking for a while, he finally said: "It should be 11 years ago, I went to Daming Mansion and visited a famous swordsman, but I haven't seen the swordsman yet, but encountered a sudden incident .”

Chu Huan knew that what happened to Qiu Ruxue must be related to this weird sword technique, which came from Xiao Chen, and Chu Huan really wanted to know other stories about this sword technique.

Xiao Chen's sword technique is not the Central Plains sword technique, and coupled with his status as a Taoist of the Tianmen, Chu Huan always feels that from this sword technique, he may learn some unknown things, even related to the Tianmen.

"I remember that day when I was walking on a street in Daming Mansion, I suddenly encountered a group of people, coming towards me." Qiu Ruxue recalled in a low voice, "Everyone on the street hid on both sides, it was a The team of officials passed through the street, the soldiers in front opened the way, and I also dodged to the side of the road. I thought the team would pass quickly, but... an assassination happened immediately, and seven or eight assassins were hiding in the crowd on both sides. When the official approached, these people all started to assassinate the official."

Chu Huan frowned slightly. In fact, this kind of thing was not surprising to Chu Huan. The assassination of an official did not seem to be a rare thing in the past dynasties.

"Those assassins' methods are not low, and their cooperation is also very tacit. Before the officers and soldiers guarding the official had time to react, these people rushed into the crowd and approached the official." Qiu Ruxue's eyes gradually showed light, " That was the first time I saw that kind of weird saber technique Master Chu demonstrated just now...!"

"Brother Qiu is saying that among the assassins, someone used...!"

Before Chu Huan could finish speaking, Qiu Ruxue shook his head and said, "It's not the assassin, it's the official."

Chu Huan was taken aback.

"The three assassins attacked the official from three directions at the same time, they cooperated tacitly, and their saber skills were even better." Qiu Ruxue said slowly: "I saw it at the time, and I only thought that the official would definitely die, and it was impossible to escape. Shaking his head, he sighed: "But I was wrong after all. When the three assassins approached, I saw him draw a knife in his hand, and then the light of the knife flashed again and again. At that time, I saw the knife in his hand." It was an unbelievably changing move, it was a scene that I will never forget in my whole life, even though it was only a short moment, but that scene, I will never forget that scene in my life...!" Looking at Chu Huan, he said solemnly: "Lord Chu , your change of move just now is almost exactly the same as the saber technique of that official back then!"

The corners of Chu Huan's eyes twitched slightly, and he finally asked, "Brother Qiu, who is that official you mentioned?"

Qiu Ruxue stared at Chu Huan's eyes, and asked back, "Master Chu, you really don't know who I'm talking about?"
