Long Sword and Jun Wu

Li Longji glanced at Chen Xuanli. Chen Xuanli understood and walked to Pei Min. Pei Min presented the sword box with both hands.

Pei Min: "Please be careful, Saint and General Chen. This sword is very cold. If you want to hold the sword, you need to use your internal strength to contend with it."
Chen Xuanli nodded to show that he understood, and put the sword box on the table in front of the saint.

Li Longji raised his eyebrows when he heard this, becoming more curious about Cang Minjian.In fact, he is not very interested in the rumors and this sword at all. It's just that there are always those ignorant people in the government who believe that the world is so easy to obtain and that dynasties can be changed with a few dead things.

Chen Xuanli slowly opened the sword box, and several rays of silvery green light flashed out. The hall of Zichen Palace was filled with cold air, and even Chen Xuanli, who was practicing martial arts, couldn't help but shudder.

The sword box was completely opened, and a green and silver intertwined sword lay in it, seemingly invisible.There is a seemingly invisible nine-tailed dragon flashing on the sword, and the cold and cold air is swirling around it, like a blue dragon soaring above the clouds, soaring through the winding river in the nine heavens, roaring and shaking the sky.

Chen Xuanli, who was accustomed to seeing all kinds of rare treasures, couldn't help but be shocked by what he saw in front of him. Ge Fushun on the side couldn't help but move to the table, stretched his neck, and looked at the divine sword in the box.

Li Longji, who had been fighting all the way out of the mountain of swords and the sea of ​​fire, couldn't help but slowly stood up and stared at Cang Minjian, speechless for a moment.

"This is the legendary sword Cang Min?" Li Longji reached out to pick up the Cang Min sword, but was forced back by its cold air before he touched it.

"Sage, be careful, I will come." Chen Xuanli said quickly.

After a brief silence, Li Longji withdrew his hand and signaled Chen Xuanli to pick up the sword.

After being reminded by Pei Min, Chen Xuanli first concentrated his inner strength into his hands, then carefully picked up the sword and presented it to Li Longji.

Li Longji saw that the nine-tailed dragon seemed to disappear, and the faint dragon scales flashed on the sword. The emperor who saw all the rare treasures in the world couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

"Sure enough, it's not something in the pond. No wonder so many people wanted to get it back then. Even my aunt at the peak of her power was attracted by the unreliable legend."
Li Longji stretched out his hand and gently stroked the blade of the sword, trembling slightly from the cold air.

Seeing that Chen Xuanli was starting to take it a little too hard, and his hands were trembling slightly, he hurriedly asked him to put the sword back into the box.

Chen Xuanli didn't try to be brave and quickly put down the Cang Min Sword, feeling relieved.

""One sword can rule the world"?hehe. "Li Longji looked at the Cangmin sword lying in the sword box, looked at Chen Xuanli and Ge Fushun, then looked at Pei Min and Chu Tai in front of the hall, and asked: "You said, I won the world, so I can win Cangmin. Sword, or do I need this divine sword to conquer the world? "
Naturally, Chen Xuanli and Ge Fushun did not dare to answer this kind of question.

Pei Min didn't quite understand and didn't know what to say, so he could only remain silent.

Chu Tai couldn't help but said, "Sage, this Cang Min is not a magic sword at all."
As soon as he said this, both Chen Xuanli and Ge Fushun were stunned. Li Longji narrowed his eyes slightly, and the whole hall became even quieter.

Silence enveloped the five people.From the high position, Li Longji chuckled and looked at Chu Tai, "The Chu family, the best sword-making family in the world, wants to have more insights. Let's talk about it. What do you mean by this?"

Chu Tai pursed his lips, thinking about whether to tell the truth. This was also the most embarrassing past of the Chu family.

Seeing that Chu Tai was silent, Pei Min was afraid that he would offend the saint, so he hurriedly said, "Back to the saint, I heard my master mention this."
Li Longji turned to Pei Min, and Chu Tai also looked at him doubtfully.

"During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Southern Liang Dynasty, Hou Jing, a member of the Jie tribe, rebelled." Pei Min briefly described how Bodhidharma helped Xiao Yan put down the rebellion of the Jie tribe with the Cangmin sword.

"That's why those four lines of poetry have been handed down. For hundreds of years, these lines have made this sword seem magical. In fact, it's just a sword."
Li Longji's handsome eyebrows were raised slightly, "I think so too."
Just as Pei Min breathed a sigh of relief, he heard Li Longji say: "However, you are talking about Bodhidharma holding the sword and sealing the sword. What I want to know is the sword itself."
He turned to Chu Tai and said, "Tell me about the origin of this Cang Min Sword."
Chu Tai knew that his words had been spoken and he could no longer evade them, so he had to say truthfully: "This sword was forged by my Chu family ancestor, Chu Binian, at that time."
Li Longji didn't expect that this sword was forged by someone from the Chu family. Seeing Chu Tai hesitate to speak, he urged: "How was it then?"
Chu Tai closed his eyes and spoke again, "At that time, the society was in turmoil and chaos. Many high-ranking officials and wealthy families who knew martial arts wanted to forge magical weapons to protect themselves. Our ancestors were world-famous for their superb sword-forging skills, so they all spared no expense to seek help from their ancestors." Forge swords for them. Our ancestors have also been obsessed with this all their lives and created many famous swords that have been passed down through the ages."
After Chu Tai finished speaking, he looked at Pei Min. "This Xuanqing sword of yours was also forged by our ancestors."
Pei Min was very surprised. He didn't expect that his master and the Chu family had such connections.

Li Longji pointed at the sword box and asked, "Is this Cang Min sword one of them?"

Chu Tai nodded, "The Cang Min Sword is our ancestor's most proud and final work."
The four of them were a little surprised when they heard this.

"Why?" Li Longji became more and more curious.

Chu Tai frowned and spoke with difficulty, "At that time, our ancestors obtained a kind of mineral - Wu Ling Stone, which was dissolved in tin and iron. It could make the blade of the sword thin and sharp, and it was easy to destroy gold and jade. Our ancestors also successfully made An extremely sharp sword emerged."
Pei Min suddenly asked, "Is this the Xuanqing sword?" He took out the sword and asked Chu Tai.

Chu Tai nodded in agreement.

"But the ancestor is still not satisfied. He thinks that the craftsmanship of the sword cannot be just like this. It is not a divine weapon at all. This divine word is a god in the sky. It is not something that a mortal like him can do. He wants to go to the next level. , so..." Chu Tai paused.

Chen Xuanli and Ge Fushun were both listening attentively as if they were listening to someone tell a story. Suddenly the story stopped, and Ge Fushun continued to ask, "So what happened to him?"

Chu Tai: "So our ancestors searched all over the world for sword-making methods. After learning about the legend of Ganjiang Moye Sword in the Spring and Autumn Period, he believed it firmly. When he cast the Cangmin Sword, he not only added Wuling Stone, but also wanted to cast the sword. The temperature of the furnace burned even higher, so he killed all 23 apprentices and attendants in the sword-making workshop and threw them into the sword-making furnace."
"Ah~~!"
Pei Minhe and Ge Fushun exclaimed at the same time. Chen Xuanli was usually more reserved and had to hold back so he didn't exclaim too.

Li Longji had experienced ups and downs in his life, and he had long been accustomed to it, but he was also frightened when he heard about it, and his eyebrows were furrowed.

"Later, this Cangmin Sword was finally forged?" Li Longji asked.

"No, there was only one last step away from success. The ancestor was already in a state of obsession. In the end, he himself jumped into the sword-making furnace, and the Cang Min Sword was finally completed."
The world belongs to me, and the sword also belongs to me.Please collect.
