You cultivate immortality, I cultivate merit

Chapter 148 Progress
Two days later, Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng went to Xia's house in Dongcheng.

The surrounding environment of the Xia family's rented yard is particularly beautiful, and there is a big tree across from the nearest neighbor's house.

When Master Decheng and his party entered the front yard, they saw the landscape screen at first sight. Before they even got close, they could vaguely hear the sound of running water.

When Shi Zelan got closer and saw clearly, he sighed that the craftsmanship of craftsmen in this era was beyond people's imagination.

The mountains are still mountains, and the water is still water, but the sound of flowing never stops.

Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan deliberately walked around the landscape screen, and after looking carefully, they saw the mechanism carefully designed by the craftsmen.

When Xia's father, Qiyuan, and Xia's uncle, Qicheng, came out to greet the guests, they saw them circling around the screen.

They smiled sincerely at Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng: "After moving in, I feel that it is more value for money."

Brother Qiyuan warmly welcomed Master Decheng and his entourage to sit in the courtyard. After the guests sat down, Master Qiyuan clapped his hands, and the servant immediately brought tea.

The tea was placed on the table. Master Qi Yuan waved his hand and the tea boiled, and the servant retreated.

Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng said to Brother Qiyuan at this time: "The servants you use here are the craftsmanship of the master of the magic weapon hall, right?"

Master Qiyuan laughed quite proudly, and said to Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng: "I know I can't hide them from your eyes. We only let them out to hide them from the neighbors."

The elders were talking and felt that the presence of three juniors made each other uncomfortable, so they asked the three juniors to leave.

After the three of them left the front yard, Xia Yu took Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan to the backyard and said to them: "The backyard of this house is very spacious. You can come to my house to practice swordsmanship when you are free."

They walked to the backyard and saw the vast martial arts training ground. Shi Xiaoliu was surprised and said, "Is your landlord a military general's family?"

Xia Yu shook his head: "His ancestor was a general, but after the general passed away, his descendants were not as good as their ancestors.

They rented this yard because they saw that we were outsiders and were willing to rent it for a year, so we could afford the price. "

Shi Zelan pinched his fingers and sighed: "It's not even three generations, and the descendants will not be able to maintain the glory of their ancestors."

Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan exchanged glances. They had been in the capital for a few days and heard some things. The generals who followed the saints and fought in the war all lived quite well in their later years.

Xia Yu listened to Shi Zelan and said to her, "Sister Lan, I heard about my little wife."

Shi Zelan was not surprised at all and said: "Such a big thing happened a few days ago, so you can naturally hear some rumors."

Xia Yu sighed: "It's a pity. If we had come a few days earlier, I would have broken down the door of my little wife's clan."

Shi Zelan looked at him in shock: "People from the capital city didn't break down the courtyard door of the little daughter-in-law clan's family.

The officials were guarding the entrance to the alley where they lived. If they really broke down the door, the officials would stop them. "

“I went out yesterday and heard someone say that everyone smashed down all the doors of her mother’s family, and also smashed down their courtyard walls.

Everyone said that the people in their clan worked hard for two or three days to repair the courtyard gate and wall. "

Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan laughed and told Xia Yu what they had seen and heard that day. After hearing this, he sighed: "So that's how it is. No wonder they have to clean the door and repair the courtyard wall."

Shi Xiaoliu saw the empty weapons rack in the corner of the yard. He walked over and touched it. He found that the wood was as hard as iron, and he suddenly became interested.

He waved to Shi Zelan and said, "Sister Lan, this kind of wood is very rare. Our ancestors put a lot of thought into the martial arts training ground back then."

Shi Zelan walked over and touched the weapon rack as well, then stretched out his hand to lift it up and said to Shi Xiaoliu: "This kind of wood is so heavy that it is suitable for making bricks." Xia Yu heard Shi Zelan's words and said with some confusion: "Lan Sister, do you like Brick now? "

"Xia Yu, don't you think bricks don't take up space? You can just pick them up and smash them."

"It doesn't take up space, but if you smash it out, you won't need bricks?"

"Yes."

"Then after you smash it, don't you pick it up?

If you want to pick it up and continue using it, it is still suitable for swords. "

Shi Zelan looked at him: "I want a brick magic weapon. Naturally, it can be returned to my hand without me picking it up."

Xia Yu felt relieved after hearing her words: "Fortunately, you didn't become stupid in the mortal world."

"You are stupid. Now that you have come to the capital, aren't you worried that Wanyu will find a way to follow you?"

"She can come as soon as she comes. Can I still stop her master and her decision?"

Shi Zelan looked at Xia Yu, who had a calm expression. Sure enough, she couldn't witness the scene of childhood sweethearts.

Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan were fighting in the backyard. Xia Yu got excited and joined in to fight.

People sitting in the front yard heard the movement in the back yard and rushed over, seeing three small sword lights flashing.

Master Qi Yuan used to think that Shi Zelan was a beautiful flower that was kept in the peak gate by the people of Zizi Peak.

In his heart, he secretly sympathized with Master Shanzheng and thought that he was too kind, so he accepted Shi Zelan as his personal disciple.

Now that he saw Shi Zelan's sword moves, he immediately understood that he still underestimated Shi Zelan. She could attack with every move she made, but she could stay safe by retreating.

Xia Yu and Shi Xiaoliu combined, Shi Zelan never showed defeat.

Master Qiyuan looked at Master Shanzheng with admiration: "Shanzheng, you are very good at teaching your disciples."

Master Shanzheng laughed: "Her swordsmanship was taught by my senior brother personally. I am not proficient in swordsmanship to begin with, so I dare not teach her randomly."

"Fang Cheng was very good at swordsmanship when he was young, but it's a pity that he didn't care about swordsmanship, otherwise your peak sect would have produced a swordsman master.

Is Sister Lan going to study kendo in the future? "

Master Shanzheng smiled and shook his head: "This child likes kendo, but she uses sword practice to exercise her body."

Master Qicheng was concerned about Shi Xiaoliu's swordsmanship. He and Master Decheng said: "Xiao Liu's swordsmanship is somewhat domineering, which is not quite like his temperament."

Master Decheng said with a smile: "Young people are always somewhat competitive, and they just happened to arouse his desire to win or lose."

Master Qicheng carefully looked at Shi Zelan's sword moves and said to Master Decheng: "Sister Lan has really made great progress outside. She still needs to be taken out for a walk."

The three juniors sheathed their swords and still had time to stop and discuss. Xia Yu directly invited: "Xiao Liu, Sister Lan, next time you come, we will use other methods to fight."

Shi Xiaoliu smiled and said, "Okay. I usually fight with Sister Lan, but it's not as fun as the three of us fighting together."

Shi Zelan agreed: "Sure enough, you can only make progress by practicing with multiple people."
