Chapter 3: Lecture Hall

The sword lecture hall was set up in a valley between the inner mansion and the outer mansion. It was built in a square shape with a simple style, and it could accommodate thousands of people at the same time.Usually there is a handyman here to clean and tidy up, but when it comes to the annual lecture hall, there is not enough manpower, and the handyman from the foreign government will be dispatched to help.

The annual Lecture Hall lasts for three days, which is of great significance.The new generation of disciples flocked to the lecture hall, put a futon on the spot, and sat quietly listening to the elders explain the principles and profound meanings of swordsmanship.

During this period, the handymen are not only responsible for sanitation, but also serve tea and water, anyway, all chores have to be taken care of.Come as you call, leave as soon as you wave, and serve with care.

But when the elders are giving lectures, the handymen are not allowed to stay in the lecture hall to listen, but need to wait outside, waiting for orders to act.

……

"Which is the sword?"

"The swordsman is the lord of a hundred soldiers. When the king comes to the world, he dares to wear a strong and sharp sword, and he can see the name of his heart. Therefore, there is an enemy in the world, but I have a sword in my heart..."

"For my generation of sword cultivators, life and death are at stake. It's just a sword; quench it with essence and blood, and nourish it with spirit. Sincerity and essence, like relatives and friends. With this companion, the world is boundless, and there is nowhere to go; There are thousands of ways, and one sword can break them..."

In the square lecture hall, the vigorous voice of elder Xiao Jihai echoed.

Elder Xiao is not tall, with a short beard, his eyes are piercing, and he is not angry.

Under the podium, there is a dense mass of darkness, as many as more than 200 new generation disciples.Everyone sat upright and listened quietly.

After talking for about an hour, Xiao Jihai paused, glanced at the disciples with majestic eyes, then flipped his right hand and took out a thing.

This object is the size of a palm, irregular in shape, old in color, and has some crooked cracks on it, it looks like a piece of turtle shell.

"This is the fourth time that this profound-level sword question has been shown in the lecture hall. I sincerely hope that some disciples can understand it this year."

As he said that, his eyes flashed with eager anticipation.

Metabolism, passed down from generation to generation, if the young and the yellow are not picked up, then the fate of the Sword Mansion can be imagined, it will only become more and more weak, and eventually fall apart.

It's a pity that the aptitude and talent of the new generation of disciples are far worse than before.Otherwise, why has no one been able to comprehend the true meaning and obtain the inheritance of this profound-level sword question that has been displayed in the three lecture halls?

The so-called sword question is actually a cheat book about swordsmanship.However, the founder has set unique soul imprint restrictions on the carrier, and these restrictions must be lifted if one wants to obtain the inheritance of ideas in it.

There are thousands of skills in martial arts.But to sum it up, the division of grades takes "Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang" as the unit, and each unit is subdivided into three grades of "upper, middle and lower".

The sword title that Elder Xiao Jihai took out belongs to the low grade of Xuan rank, strictly speaking, it is not considered a very good inheritance of swordsmanship.But even so, after displaying it in the lecture hall for three times, still no disciple could break through the mystery.This matter had been spread long ago and was known to other sects in the barren island, and became a laughing stock.

Hundreds of new-generation disciples from one of the top ten sword palaces in the past couldn't even obtain a copy of the low-grade sword title inheritance of the Xuan rank, which was a shame.

Therefore, Zhongnanjianfu is under great pressure.But what can be done?Disciples don't live up to expectations, and beating and scolding can't solve any problems.

It's not that all the disciples in the Sword House are that bad, there are still some outstanding rising stars among them.It's just that the swordsmanship they have mastered has already surpassed the level of the low-grade Xuan rank, but it is not suitable to crack it again.For example, asking a high school student to do a problem for elementary school students to prove that he is great, wouldn't it be ridiculous?

What's more, such a method of solving the sword question is meaningless, and loses the true meaning of inheritance. Not only will it fail to cultivate good seedlings, but it will also waste a sword question, and the gain outweighs the loss.

Xiao Jihai raised his hand, snatched it away, and embedded the sword in his hand in the recess of the stone wall behind him, then he sat on the grand teacher's chair beside him, closed his eyes and meditated.

He was waiting, waiting for experienced disciples to come up and figure it out closely, and then solve the sword problem.

There was silence in the audience, and the expressions of all the disciples were very dignified.In their eyes, that sword question seemed to be a hard nut to chew, and they couldn't get their mouths open.

Difficult, it is too difficult.

In the face of difficulties, no one dares to go up easily.Or in other words, in the past three years in the lecture hall, they have basically tried everything, and they were all at a loss. No matter how hard they thought, they still couldn't find the right method.Although I have been cultivating for another year now, I still don't have much confidence.

It seems that I will be disappointed again...

Xiao Jihai sighed in his heart.

After waiting for a long hour, some of the disciples sitting in the front row suddenly stood up, cupped their fists in a respectful salute, and said loudly: "Elder Xiao, I want to try."

Xiao Jihai opened his eyes and finally showed a gratified smile: "Luo Gang, come up."

This Luo Gang is Deacon Luo's nephew, with a strength level seven, he became a disciple of the inner sect two years ago, and he is one of the best among the new generation of disciples in the Sword Mansion.

I saw that he was tall and tall, walking steadily, and stood still in front of the stone wall.Facing the sword question embedded on the stone wall, he began to drive his thoughts and meditate.

Swish!

A large group of eyes in the hall focused on him, and everyone had the same idea, hoping that Luo Gang could solve this low-level sword question in one fell swoop—if it was said that when the sword question was first displayed three years ago, the Everyone regarded it as a lucky encounter, but now it has become a huge boulder weighing more than a thousand catties, weighing heavily on the heart, almost breathless.

No one in the three lecture halls could solve it.The cruel reality is like a label attached to every new generation of disciples: incompetent.

Collective incompetence!

Whenever I think about it, everyone's face is hot.

Now that Luo just stepped forward, he pinned all their hopes.

After about a cup of tea time, beads of sweat appeared on the forehead of Luo Gang, who was in deep thought, and his brows were wrinkled, almost into a ball.

No matter who Xiao Jihai is, he can see at a glance that Luo Gang's cracking process is not going well.According to the usual practice, he should have spoken out to stop Luo Gang from facing difficulties.But for some reason, the words reached my throat or I swallowed them back, thinking in my heart: Maybe, maybe Luo Gang suddenly blessed his soul, and suddenly understood it...

"puff!"

Luo Gang's body trembled suddenly, and he spurted out a mouthful of blood.His face was pale, and he could hardly stand still.

"Ugh!"

By coincidence, the sighs were like waves.

Luo Gang still failed, not only failed, but also suffered backlash and was injured.

"Elder Xiao..."

When the words came out, his mouth was full of bitterness.

Xiao Jihai waved his hand sadly, interrupted his words, and ordered someone to carry him down so that he could recuperate.

"Okay, let's stop here for today. I hope everyone will go back and think about it, and come back tomorrow. Well, this sword question will stay where it is. If any of you have any inspiration, you can come and solve it at any time."

With a wry smile on his face, he was thinking in his heart whether he should cheat a little in tomorrow's lecture, and directly point out some key tips to solve this sword problem.

What else could be done?If this year's lecture hall can't solve this sword problem, Zhongnan Sword Mansion will lose face.

Not to mention the face, the reputation will plummet even more, and it will not be able to attract talented disciples to join.Even several of their elders would probably be scolded for "incompetent teaching".

Thinking of the bad influence, the corners of his mouth twitched.

On the first day of the lecture hall, the boredom was over, and all the disciples dispersed and returned to their residences.

At this time, it was the turn of the handyman in charge of the aftermath to come in and tidy up.The division of labor was determined early in the morning, and everyone started working according to the area.

It's getting late, the winter season, the night comes quickly, if you don't hurry up, I'm afraid it will be difficult to do it when it gets dark.

Liang Qiufeng was in charge of the lecture area. He wiped the ground clean with his hands and feet, and then it was the turn of the stone wall.

The stone wall was polished to be extremely smooth and smooth, and there were many characters written in charcoal on it, which were all handwritten by Xiao Jihai when he was explaining, for some purpose of swordsmanship.

When Liang Qiufeng saw it, he felt that it was so mysterious, so he paid attention to it and wrote it down secretly.

"Hey, this is..."

After burning an incense stick for a while, he wiped the place where the sword title was placed, and saw something like a tortoise shell firmly embedded there. He couldn't help being curious, so he stopped for a while and watched intently.

Liang Qiufeng knew that this object was extraordinary, so he didn't dare to reach out to touch it, lest he violated the rules and taboos of the Sword Mansion, and the end would be disastrous.

His eyes fell on that thing, and he wanted to look at it and leave, but for some reason, at first glance, it seemed to have taken root, and he couldn't move away for a long time.

hum!

Under the line of sight, the landscape changed suddenly, and what was inlaid on it was no longer a tortoise shell-like thing, but changed into countless light spots.

The light spots are like awns, moving, little by little, densely packed.Between the flashes, they gradually converged and merged into one piece.In the end, thousands of light spots merged into one, and the cold light was like electricity, condensing into a pocket sword shape——

Chi!

With a flash of sword light, it stabbed directly at Liang Qiufeng's eyebrows.

"oops!"

Liang Qiufeng screamed in shock, and subconsciously dodged to the side quickly.The body swayed, and the fantasy in front of him disappeared immediately, the stone wall was still a stone wall, and the things embedded in the stone wall were quiet and motionless.

What happened?

He feels weird.

"Liang Qiufeng, what's your ghost name? It scared me."

The handymen in charge of other parts of the lecture hall heard the screams and asked in a low voice.

"No, nothing."

Liang Qiufeng coped, wiped the sweat that appeared on his forehead at an unknown time, and hurried to clean up the rest.

After a while, Deacon Luo, who was full, came to inspect the work, with a stern face, and a reprimand was inevitable.As for Liang Qiufeng, he was even more picky and critical, sometimes saying it was not good enough, sometimes saying it wasn't clean enough and had to do it all over again.

Liang Qiufeng knew it well, but he was under the eaves, so he had to be patient.In the end, all the other handymen left, and he was the only one left to continue working hard.

When it was dark, someone from the Sword Mansion came over, but under Xiao Jihai's order, they came to guard the low-grade Xuan-rank sword title.

It didn't take long for some Sword Mansion disciples who had dinner to come in twos and threes, ready to light up the lamp to study the mystery of the sword topic.It's just that none of them have ever acted rashly, driven their minds to crack, and only stayed in the meditation stage.

Solving the sword problem is not an easy task. If you try rashly without a certain degree of certainty, you will be backlashed and injured, and you will not be reckless.

Luo Gang suffered backlash and vomited blood, which is the proof.

At this time, it was naturally not suitable for the handyman to stay inside, so Deacon Luo showed mercy and let Liang Qiufeng go out to eat.
