Fairies Are Fierce

Chapter 60 Teaching by Precept and Deed

The next day.

The strong wind and heavy rain turned into light rain, but the sky remained gloomy.

The square in front of the palace in Qihuang Valley was crowded with people. The monks, big and small, gathered around the ring to watch a disciple of Qingchi Jianzhuang compete with Li Yingjia of Fuqi Mountain.

Fine raindrops sprinkled on the oil paper umbrella, making a rustling sound, but it did not dampen the enthusiasm of the onlookers.

Zuo Lingquan, dressed in black and carrying a sword, came to the outside of the square and was also observing the action on the ring.

This morning, when Zuo Lingquan woke up from his trance, Jiang Yi had already returned to the capital for a morning meeting; he left without saying goodbye, presumably still sulking over his dishonest behavior yesterday. After Wu Qingwan saw off Jiang Yi, she went to the main hall of the sect to get busy with business.

The news of the ambush yesterday has been reported back to the valley. But because he suddenly entered the twelfth level of Qi Refining, leaking the news might cause unnecessary trouble. Wu Qingwan did not report everything to his senior brothers. He only said that he was ambushed by an unknown opponent in the Evergreen Mountains. It was a blessing in disguise. The specific cultivation levels of Zuo Lingquan and his opponent were not mentioned in several acupoints.

As for the trophies harvested yesterday, they would naturally not be handed over to the sect. Zuo Lingquan asked Wu Qingwan to take them and study them privately. Of course, he also did not forget to ask Wu Qingwan to leave a few good things for Wang Rui. After all, they are considered colleagues. A life and death together.

After concentrating on Qi Refining for a night, Zuo Lingquan's body was able to fill approximately two acupoints with True Qi. Although it was still slow, it was faster than expected. The injuries on her body were treated by Wu Qingwan. Although she still felt pain, it was no longer harmful.

Zuo Lingquan watched for a moment outside the square, seeing novices pecking each other, but it was not interesting, so he wandered around the square; before he walked around, he saw Wu Qingwan in black walking out of the main hall of the sect. .

Zuo Lingquan had just entered the twelfth level of Qi Refining and was about to ask Wu Qingwan for advice on cultivation. He quickly walked to the verandah and shouted:

"Senior Wu."

At the other end of the corridor, Wu Qingwan was holding a book in her hand, and she was actually going to find Zuo Lingquan.

Yesterday's turmoil has temporarily subsided. After Wu Qingwan's initial shock and ecstasy, her mind slowly calmed down.

As an 'old man' who has been practicing for decades, Wu Qingwan knows how a monk should arrange his practice plan. Practice is a matter of time and effort. Now that Zuo Lingquan has refined True Qi, he must prepare for the next step in promotion.

Moreover, Wu Qingwan also has some thoughts of her own - there is no one person in Qihuang Valley who is responsible for the situation. If Zuo Lingquan can establish himself in the spiritual practice as soon as possible, he might be able to help Qihuang Valley overcome the current crisis.

Wu Qingwan understood Zuo Lingquan's character and would not abandon the people around her. Even if she didn't care about Qihuang Valley, at least she would not abandon her and Jiang Yi.

Of course, she would not slow down Zuo Lingquan's cultivation pace and beg him to stay in Qihuang Valley and be a little leader. As long as Zuo Lingquan has the intention to protect Qihuang Valley, with his exaggerated talent, even if he goes thousands of miles away, the entire Great Dan Dynasty and even the surrounding monks will be afraid of the day he comes back, this is enough.

However, all this must still be based on Zuo Lingquan recovering from his injury as soon as possible and getting on the right track.

Wu Qingwan saw Zuo Lingquan in the verandah, walked quickly to him, and said softly:

"Why did you come here? Is your injury okay?"

"The injury is almost healed. I'm still not used to sitting for too long. Come out and walk around."

Zuo Lingquan and Wu Qingwan walked side by side to the alchemy room. The two quickly walked out of the verandah. He opened the oil paper umbrella and covered their heads.

The two shared an umbrella and were very close.

Wu Qingwan did not shy away from this, and even came closer, with her sleeves almost touching Zuo Lingquan, picked up the book in her hand and said:

"Now you have a cultivation base, and your Taoism is similar to mine, but your realm has climbed too fast, and you haven't kept up with other aspects. There are some things I have to teach you, and you have to study hard..."

Wu Qingwan was about the same height as Zuo Lingquan's lips. As she got so close, a light fragrance drifted over her.

Zuo Lingquan was not distracted, he just moved the umbrella over Wu Qingwan's head to prevent the rain from getting the skirt of Wu Qingwan's waist wet, and said with a smile:

"It's fine for Senior Wu to treat me as a disciple, and you don't have to be polite if you should play hands. No matter how high my cultivation base is, Senior Wu is also my teacher. If you are willing to teach me, I can't ask for more."

"Hmph~ your mouth is quite sweet..."

When Wu Qingwan said this, her eyelashes suddenly moved, she licked the corners of her lips lightly, and said no more words.

Zuo Lingquan didn't notice this subtle abnormality. He looked at the book in Wu Qingwan's hand - although the bulging skirt covered half of the book, he could still see a few small characters on it - Hidden Sword Art.

In addition, Zuo Lingquan also found that Wu Qingwan's skirt was trembling slightly up and down as she walked, as if she had lost her restraint, which was slightly different from the past.

But this detail was difficult for Zuo Lingquan to observe carefully. He quickly looked away and asked:

"Senior Wu, is this the sword manual?"

"This is the sword manual brought back by the national master from Jingtai Terrace. It records three types of sword skills, which are the special skills of our Qihuang Valley's 'Liufenghuixue', 'Zhenfeng Lingyu' and 'Yu Xia Chengqi'. "Hidden Sword Jue" originally had seven swords, but the Imperial Master only learned three of them. If you want to learn the later ones, you can only go to Jingting Terrace to become a disciple."

Zuo Lingquan nodded lightly: "The name is quite nice."

Wu Qingwan knew Zuo Lingquan's swordsmanship Spirit Ascension, so she definitely looked down upon this most basic thing. She raised her eyes and looked at Zuo Lingquan:

"These three sword skills, in my opinion, are still a thousand miles away from your sword, but you can't only be good at that sword. When you practice one, you will inevitably encounter tit-for-tat. If the opponent's cultivation level is not up or down , you can’t defeat it without martial arts, and using that sword consumes a lot of money and will expose the things at the bottom of the box, so you can’t run away, right?”

When Zuo Lingquan heard what Wu Qingwan said, he really felt like this:

"Understood, Zang Feng."

Wu Qingwan nodded slightly, thought for a moment, and then said:

"By the way, what is your sword move called? It's always 'that sword, that sword', which is inconvenient to say."

Zuo Lingquan has been practicing swordsmanship for so many years, and all he practices is the 'Zhongping Sword' in secular martial arts. When he heard this, he shook his head and said:

"My move is called the 'Zhongping Sword', and it doesn't have a special name."

Wu Qingwan knew what the Zhongping Sword was, and she frowned slightly: "This move of yours has already been transformed into a saint, so how can you just call it the 'Zhongping Sword'? , that day when you went out with your sword, the sound of the sword sounded like a dragon roaring, the energy of the sword sounded like a dragon walking in the wild, and the five elements belong to water, so why not call it 'Water Dragon Roar'?"

Zuo Lingquan knew that "Water Dragon Yin" was the name of a secular word brand. Anyway, he was not prepared to shout out the name of the move during a fight, so he nodded lightly:

"Senior Wu thinks it's suitable, so of course I have no objection."

While the two were chatting, they arrived at the main building of the alchemy room.

Qihuang Valley is about five miles in radius. As one of the five rooms, the Alchemy Room is quite large. The alchemy room looks like a round building on the outside, with more than a hundred rooms of various sizes inside, with various equipment inside.

At this time, in the alchemy room, there were many disciples who did not go to the square to watch the excitement. They were brewing medicine and polishing equipment in their own rooms. The sound sounded like a large pharmacy.

Zuo Lingquan put away his umbrella and followed Wu Qingwan to the large room behind the round building - the room was where Wu Qingwan was busy on weekdays. There were several desks with various utensils placed on them, as well as an alchemy furnace. However, the alchemy furnace is just an ordinary object, not the alchemy cauldron used by alchemists. It can only refine some very basic medicines.

It's raining outside, so the only way to teach sword skills is indoors.

After Wu Qingwan entered the room, she took two wooden sticks from the desk and threw one to Zuo Lingquan:

"I'll demonstrate it to you first. You can learn the specific sword tactics yourself. With your talent, you should be able to learn it quickly."

Zuo Lingquan put down his belongings, stood opposite Wu Qingwan with a wooden stick, and stood upright:

"good."

After the two sides stood still, Wu Qingwan also became serious. She used a wooden stick as a sword and pointed diagonally at the ground. She also stood still in a slim black dress.

She looked very serious and said:

"The key point of the Hidden Sword Technique lies in the word 'hidden'. When fighting, we pay attention to 'surprise, virtuality and reality'. The first move, 'Flowing Wind Returns to Snow', is a backhand move. Now you use the sword against me."

Zuo Lingquan looked equally serious and was about to draw his sword when Wu Qingwan in front of him suddenly took another step back and added:

"Don't use True Qi, just stab it in a proper manner."

He said this, obviously because he was afraid that Zuo Lingquan, who had just reached the twelfth level of Qi Refining, would make a mess and hold her down as a teacher.

However, Zuo Lingquan was definitely reluctant to hit Wanwan, so he stabbed Wu Qingwan slowly with the speed of an ordinary martial artist without reminding him.

Wu Qingwan did not raise a sword to fight, but turned around and ran away with a wooden stick in hand.

Zuo Lingquan knew that ‘Liu Feng Hui Xue’ was a move to counter the opponent, so he was not surprised. He continued to attack and went straight to Wu Qingwan’s back.

And just when the wooden stick in Zuo Lingquan's hand was about to touch Wu Qingwan's back, a wooden stick suddenly jumped out from under Wu Qingwan's sleeve.

Wu Qingwan's body was still running forward, and the wooden stick in her hand was stabbed back from under the armpit at an extremely tricky angle, and it stabbed Zuo Lingquan in the chest in the blink of an eye.

Boom——

Zuo Lingquan was hit in the chest, so he naturally stopped and nodded slightly:

"Show the enemy weakness and attack them unprepared. Not bad, but a bit... um..."

Wu Qingwan knew that Zuo Lingquan wanted to say "a bit sinister", so she put away her sword and stood up, saying seriously:

"In a life-and-death fight, as long as the moves are easy to use. This is just a way of using Liufeng Huixue. In actual fighting, you have to learn how to use it. Once you learn the tricks of luck, its power should not be underestimated."

After rehearsing the first move, Wu Qingwan demonstrated 'Yuxia Chengqi' again. Zuo Lingquan has personally experienced this trick and has nothing to say about it.

When it came to the third move, 'Shocking Wind, Lingyu', Wu Qingwan held the wooden stick horizontally in his hand and explained:

"This move is the 'Shocking Sword Technique'. It is used to repel the enemy and create distance. You can try stabbing me with your sword."

Zuo Lingquan nodded seriously, and stabbed Wu Qingwan in the heart with his sword at the speed of an ordinary warrior just like before.

Wu Qingwan raised the wooden stick horizontally and blocked the stabbing stick with the 'sword spine', and then performed the sword technique, causing the wooden stick to tremble suddenly.

Bang——

Zuo Lingquan felt a huge push from the wooden stick in Wu Qingwan's hand, and his whole body was shaken and he took a few steps back.

This move was a move to put distance between the enemy and Wu Qingwan herself was shocked and flew back. The two of them separated in an instant and retreated to the walls on both sides of the room.

Zuo Lingquan focused on his sword skills and didn't care about anything else at first, but when Wu Qingwan used this move, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

Wu Qingwan, who was wearing a black skirt, was seen flying backwards. At the same time, her long black skirt was flying in the wind. The ball in front of her skirt was also shaken by this, so that 'ripples' could be clearly seen.

When he landed and stood still, he bounced twice.

(⊙_⊙)!

Such a "thrilling" scene made Zuo Lingquan almost lose his balance when he landed.

Wu Qingwan was not wearing a bra, and using this move to repel the enemy and ourselves had such an effect. She noticed it after landing, but there was no strange look on her face. After Xingyunliushui sheathed her sword, she squinted at Zuo Lingquan who was looking at the wrong place, which meant - where are you looking at me, brat?

Zuo Lingquan knew that his gaze just now was a little rude, but he didn't mean it. During the battle just now, even a man couldn't control his eyes. He quickly sheathed his sword and stood still, saying seriously:

"Well... good swordsmanship, thank you Senior Wu for your advice."

Wu Qingwan did not blame Zuo Lingquan. After placing the wooden stick on the stage, she turned around and began to study the several Law Weapons collected yesterday, and said softly:

"After reading it, go back and practice hard. Meditate Qi Refining and be calm. Don't run around if you have nothing to do."

"good."

Zuo Lingquan felt that Wu Qingwan seemed a little dissatisfied and wanted to apologize, but felt that it would be more embarrassing. After thinking about it, he didn't say much. He picked up the sword skills from the desk and said goodbye.
