Chapter 242 The Spirit Sword Comes to the World
"Have you found the information about the blood Ganoderma lucidum mentioned by the hidden cultivator?"

Tong Zhan walked alone into the secret room where ancient books were collected, and what he saw was Tong Xin holding a pile of bamboo slips in his arms, searching around for something like a stroll.

"I've been searching for a long time, but I can't find any news about Xue Ruyi."

Childlike innocence dropped the bamboo slips in her arms without a care and scratched her head with a frown.

"How stupid. Blood Ruyi is the treasure of Yujian Villa, so of course we need to find news about Yujian Villa!"

Tong Zhan shook his head in disgust, unable to do anything about his stupid brother.

"Dad is very ill. The hermit cultivator said that the blood can revive human flesh and bones, and bring people back to life. With it, dad can be saved."

"Yujian Villa, I think I've seen this before, wait a minute!"

Tong Xin's eyes lit up, and she turned over and landed next to the bookshelf behind her. She picked up a scroll of bamboo slips that she had just thrown away from the ground. After scanning it for a few times, she pointed at one of the lines and looked at Tong Zhan.

"Here, you can find it just by looking at me."

Tong Zhan took the bamboo slip and smiled when he read the information on it.

"The news about Xue Ruyi is true, dad can be saved!"

Just as the two of them were jumping around and excited like monkeys, a loud thunder-like sound came from outside for no reason, and even the cave inevitably shook.

The bamboo slips on the bookshelf fell to the floor, and the two brothers, who were not yet firm on their feet, almost fell down.

"I remember it was sunny outside, right?"

Tong Zhan and Tong Xin looked at each other and asked uncertainly.

"Go and see!"

Seeing Tong Zhan abandoning herself to take the lead and leaving, Tong Xin hurriedly chased after him.

"Wait for me, I want to see it too..."

When the two arrived, there was already a large circle of people in front of them, including the six elders at the innermost. They all looked at the things in front of them with doubtful expressions and made curious sounds from time to time.

As the second son of the patriarch, Tong Zhan has a different status. As he advances, those who stand in front of him all get out of the way.

"what happened?"

Looking between the six elders, Tong Zhan's eyes suddenly straightened.

A half-meter deep pit appeared on the originally flat ground. The soil at the bottom of the pit was still warm, and there was still a slight warmth steaming up.

And what caused all this was actually a sword!

Most of the broad sword body has been submerged in the ground, leaving only a small half exposed. The sword body is wrapped with mysterious patterns, which looks chaotic but is inexplicably harmonious.

The hilt is simple and thick and seems to be integrated with the sword body, and the cloud patterns on it are full of aura.

"What happened here? Where did this sword come from?"

Tong Zhan turned to look at the six elders who had arrived first, and asked the most familiar and lively hermit.

"This sword fell from the sky without warning. It doesn't look like an ordinary sword. Could it be a spiritual sword?"

Yinxiu wanted to reach out and touch it, but his fingertips lightly touched the sword. The sword suddenly flashed with golden light, and the dazzling light obscured everyone's sight.

With a sudden exclamation, Yin Xiu's eyes bulged and he screamed and flew backwards, holding his waist and moaning with tears almost falling down.

"Don't get close, everyone. This sword belongs to its owner and will fight back against those who want to get close."

Although the hermit is not very powerful, he is knowledgeable. He has read the books in the library for more than 100 years. He has been involved in many secrets and myths and legends. Even if he has not seen them with his own eyes, he can still guess a few things.

"Is this sword any different?"

The innocent child behind him suddenly lost interest when he saw that everyone was discussing only a sword with solemn faces.

He couldn't play with it, and the big brother even scolded himself when he got it. He was afraid that it would be used to hurt others, so he shook his head and skipped away.

Tong Zhan's eyes immediately became vigilant, and he led everyone back a few steps to make way for the space. For such a spiritual thing, if it is aroused by others, it is easy to fight back and cause unpredictable consequences.

"What happened here?"

A young voice came from behind the crowd, and the calmness in the voice was deeply rooted in people's hearts. The originally slightly panicked crowd subconsciously calmed down.

Even Tong Zhan looked at the visitor with a smile as if he had found his backbone.

"Brother, you are here."

Tong Bo had a handsome face and seemed to always have a touch of tenderness in his eyes. He nodded with a smile.

First, he helped Yin Xiu up and asked about his injuries. After finding out that it was nothing serious, he walked to Tong Zhan.

After Tong Zhan explained what happened here, Tong Bo looked at the long sword that had regained its edge in the pit.

"This sword has spirituality and cannot be touched by ordinary people. It seems to be a spiritual sword!"

Tong Bo did not try to make contact with it. If the sword really had an owner, forcibly taming it would be counterproductive. No one could predict whether any accidents would happen.

"There is a barrier in Shuiyue Cave that was set up by the clan's masters 500 years ago. No one can penetrate it. Why did this sword break through the barrier and fall in? Where is its owner?"

As the eldest son of the clan leader and the heir to the next clan leader, Tong Bo has an approachable personality and always considers things comprehensively. The first thing that comes to mind is why did this sword appear and who used it?
"Brother, is it possible to record it in the clan's secret book?"

The first thing that Tong Zhan thought of was the book cave that contained the knowledge collected by the Tong clan over the past 500 years.

"Hermit, do you know anything about this sword?"

Tong Bo looked at the hermit who had stood up. Although he was still rubbing his waist, the spirit sword had no killing intent and the skin was not even broken. It was just a fall. Given his physique, it didn't matter. .

"This……"

Yin Xiu shook his head. Although the collection of books in Shuiyue Cave was all-encompassing and the Tong clan was uniquely endowed with it, he really couldn't remember where he had read about this spiritual sword.

"Forget it, get out of the way first, and I'll try to see if I can pull it out."

Tong Bo didn't force himself, and after shooing away everyone, his eyes calmed down, and he stretched out his hand under the expectant eyes of everyone, and slowly and steadily grasped the hilt of the sword.

Yin Xiu covered his eyes, already prepared for him to be shocked. Even Tong Zhan stared at him worriedly, fearing that another accident would happen.

"Brother, why don't we just forget it!"

"The spirit sword has a spirit. If you keep it here, it may be accidentally touched by others. It's too unsafe. It's best to put it away. Don't worry, I'm just giving it a try."

"If you can't force it, then you can only let it be here. Let the tribesmen be careful and block it here so that they don't get close."

Tong Bo comforted him, and then he secretly reached out his hand and directly grasped the hilt of the sword.

The imaginary counterattack did not come, and the spirit sword did not appear in his hands, it was as simple and unpretentious as an ordinary long sword.

Watching him pull out the spiritual sword, the hermit cultivator was in disbelief and couldn't help but step forward to touch it.

But the pain in his waist had not dissipated, so he could only suppress the curiosity in his heart, huddled behind Tong Zhan and revealed his head to take a closer look.

Tong Bo held the spirit sword in front of his eyes. The seemingly broad blade was actually extremely light and light, as light as cotton wool in his hand.

A trickle of spiritual energy flowed into his body along the spiritual sword, and his strength seemed to have increased a lot.

"What a strange sword!"

Tong Bo sighed, everyone is at ease in this Shuiyue Cave, and there is no need to use force at all. It seems that a little increase in strength is of no use, but it is a magical skill when facing foreign enemies!

It has been 500 years since the ancestor of the Tong family lived in seclusion here, but he has not forgotten why this clan wanted to hide. It was not because they were forced by foreign enemies and had no choice but to hide.

"Okay, it's over, everyone, let's go back."

Tong Bo left with the sword and found a place to put it away, while the others gradually dispersed.

Tong Zhan, who was left last, touched the animal skin map in his arms and went against the crowd to find his childish innocence of playing alone outside.

"Now that we have found the news about Xue Ruyi, we will set off immediately."

"Did you get something?"

Tong Zhan took out the animal skin and opened it. On it were the directions recorded in some words and pictures.

"The hermit did not lie, the Blood Ganoderma is real, and this method of opening the Shuiyue Cave must also be real!"

"Then what are you waiting for, let's go!"

Thinking of being able to leave Shuiyuedongtian to see the outside world, Tongxin couldn't wait to pull him away.

The two came to Hell Rock, which was a large mechanism set up by the ancestor of the Tong family. It was an escape passage. It was a portal that would only be opened when an enemy broke through Shuiyue Cave!

However, these are all recorded in books, and no one has ever tried to open it in the past 500 years. Tong Zhan and Tong Xin had never even heard of this place before.

Tong Zhan knew this because these were the legends mentioned by the hermit when she gave him information.

"Push this crossbar, the stone mill will rotate and the mechanism will open."

What appeared in front of the two people were stone statues. Judging from the different heads, they should be the twelve zodiac signs, surrounded by a huge bagua, and at the end was a huge head with a face like an evil ghost.

Next to them was a huge millstone, with two thigh-thick horizontal bars extending out.

"We are alone!"

Tong Zhan himself studied the animal skin that turned on the mechanism, and then he and Tong Xin each stood in a position and began to push up the stone mill.

But no matter how hard they exerted themselves, the stone mill did not move at all, and instead made themselves panting from exhaustion.

"I don't believe it anymore. Second brother, get out of the way and I'll try again!"

The childlike innocence showed dissatisfaction, the luck was concentrated, the powerful Qi surrounded the whole body, the hair moved automatically without wind, and he had already shown his true skills!
boom!
There was a loud noise, and the horizontal bar in front of him broke.

"what have you done?"

Tong Zhan's anger welled up. If the mechanism was destroyed, he would not be able to get the blood Ganoderma lucidum, and he would not be able to save his father.

Tong Xin scratched her head in embarrassment, as if she had done something wrong, "I didn't want to, I didn't mean it."

Before Tong Zhan could say anything more, the stone mill started to move. He immediately stared closely, not daring to let go of any movement.

As the stone mill rotated, a single stone sculpture behind the twelve zodiac animals slowly moved along the track and hit the evil head and ears.

The spiritual stone on the waist of the stone sculpture was inserted into the evil ghost's ear, and a stream of mercury flowed out of the evil ghost's mouth, quickly filling the gaps in the Bagua. At the same time, the center of the Bagua softened and turned into a water-marked channel.

"Success!"

Tong Zhan looked happy and looked at Tong Xin.

"Jump!"

The two of them jumped, fell into the passage and disappeared. The millstone automatically returned to its position without maintenance, and the passage also disappeared...

When Tong Zhan and Tong Xin appeared again, they were already outside Yujian Villa thousands of miles away.

The bustle outside dazzled the two bumpkins. Tongxin had no concept of guarding men and women. He lifted up a woman's skirt in the street and was slapped. Before Tong Zhan could find a place for him, Tongxin saw the clothes on the street vendors again. Grab rattles and bamboo balls and play with them.

I have no idea when it comes to the prices proposed by vendors, and I don’t know that everything in the outside world has a price.

Fortunately, Tong Zhan is not as simple-minded as him, like a dissatisfied child. He knows that his two brothers are here to do business, and has been stopping him from the side.

During the fight, the two bumped into a table. The bamboo ball accidentally flew out of Tongxin's hand and fell into one hand to catch it steadily.

"How decent it is to fight in the street. There is no quality at all. The table was broken. We have to pay for it!"

"Who are you? Do you want to take care of our brothers' affairs?"

Although Tong Zhan was more mature than Tong Zhan, he was also unsophisticated. At this moment, he glared at him while holding his neck.

"Hey, you're quite arrogant?"

Yi Buhuo's eyes were bigger than his. He sized up the two brothers and said with a sneer: "They are all dressed in white, and they don't look good when they walk. They look like country bumpkins."

"Looking at your appearance, you are possessed by a degenerate spirit. The first half of your life was smooth, and the second half of your life was full of ups and downs. You have the appearance of a protagonist. If you add that both of your parents are dead, even I would have to hide away..."

Yi Buhuo's voice suddenly dropped when he said this. He was careless. His parents were really both dead. He couldn't believe that he was the protagonist of this world, right?

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Tong Zhan almost couldn't help but take action. This guy actually cursed himself. His father was seriously ill and was about to die, but he could be saved by getting the blood Ruyi.

"It's just nonsense!"

"Young boy, I'm just making a living here. Do you still know if it's true?"

Yi Buhuo pointed to the cloth sail standing next to him. There were four large characters of "iron mouth cut straight" with iron paintings and silver hooks. He spent a tael of silver to order it from the scholar at the gate of the city.

"I've been setting up a stall here for three days, and I don't have any objections!"

Although it has not been open for three days, and I am waiting for the passing ceremony of Yujian Villa to go in and eat and drink, but I can’t be wrong about people. The two young boys in front of me must have extraordinary backgrounds!
"Tongxin, where are you going again? Come back here!"

Before Tong Zhan could refute, Tong Xin had already grabbed the bamboo ball and ran out again. He quickly followed to catch the person.

He is the elder brother, and it would be against the clan rules to bring his younger brother out secretly. If he causes trouble, I'm afraid he will inevitably be punished when he returns.

"childlike innocence?"

Yi Buhuo watched the two of them go away. The name was somewhat familiar to him. His dusty memories began to wake up gradually, and some impressive characters began to appear in his memory.

Although he didn't know Tong Zhan, he suddenly remembered Tong Zhan's childlike face. His skin was a little more tender, his eyes were a little clearer, and his temperament was a little worse, but his face shape had not changed.

Isn't this the younger version of a thug in a suit?

If he hadn't read countless pictures, he might not have been able to tell that the same person can have completely different temperaments.

I didn’t expect that I would play a mentally retarded person this time...

It took no effort at all. I met the protagonist just after I arrived here, and he seemed to be easy to deceive.

Can the visions or treasures of this world bring you any benefits?
