Chapter 56 Sword Trial Conference
Chapter 56 Sword Trial Conference
Afterwards, Fu Jun gradually recalled this storm with sadness, but he always felt that there was really no warning at the beginning.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be caught off guard and watch things go to the worst.
But to say where the source started, it should be on the fifth day of May, when Fu Jun and Qin Zhan were ordered by Lu Huaifeng to go down the mountain to carry out the task of finding people.
The reason was that Di Yi, a deacon disciple of the outer sect—an old acquaintance of Fu Jun and Qin Zhan— came to report to Lu Huaifeng that eight disciples of the outer sect went down the mountain to purchase goods in a nearby town in early May, but they have not yet Anyway, no news was sent back, and usually this kind of purchase only takes a day or two.
After hearing this, Lu Huaifeng told Di Yi to go back, saying that he would send his disciples to find him, and told Di Yi not to worry.
After Di Yi thanked him and said goodbye, Lu Huaifeng summoned Fu Jun and Qin Zhan and ordered them to deal with the matter.
Fu Jun and Qin Zhan took the orders and immediately went back to Jiaziju to pack their luggage and prepare to go down the mountain.
Since the last battle with Zhen Sujiao, Fu Jun would bring enough medicine every time he went down the mountain, especially the red marrow ointment that was specially designed to treat the wounds of the magic cultivator.Although it is not always possible to meet Moxiu every time, it is always better to be prepared.
After getting ready, Fu Jun and Qin Zhan set off using Yujian flying technique.
According to Di Yi, those missing disciples went to a place called Ruifeng Town to buy them, but they never went back.Qin Zhan then told Fu Jun that they should choose Rui'an Town as the first target, and search in a radius of a hundred miles to see if there are any clues.
Fu Jun had no objection to this, because what Qin Zhan said was also what he thought.
Originally, Fu Jun was a little bit skeptical that those disciples had unfortunately encountered a demon cultivator on the way, and they were ready to fight. Unexpectedly, after a short while, he found eight dressed in a suit in a dense forest on the outskirts of Ruifeng Town. A person dressed as an outer disciple of the Danxiao Sect.
Looking at the appearances of the eight people, it matches Di Yi's description very well, especially the leader has a bean-sized mole on his chin, a face with Chinese characters, slightly dark complexion, thick eyebrows and big eyes, just like the one in Di Yi's mouth. Luo Quan is exactly the same.
Fu Jun and Qin Zhan stepped forward to inquire, and only then did they learn that the eight opponents had finished purchasing. In order to seek a shortcut, they chose to return to the Danxiao faction from the dense forest path, but someone set up a formation in the dense forest, and Luo Quan After the eight people strayed into it, they were trapped for several days. With everyone's concerted efforts to break through the formation, they managed to escape from the formation.
Seeing Fu Jun and Qin Zhan looking for them, Luo Quan and the others were also very pleasantly surprised, but also a little apprehensive, for fear that they would be punished for it.
Qin Zhan comforted them with a smile, and said, "Brother Di Yi is worried about your safety and has reported it to the suzerain, but the suzerain has no intention of punishing you, but just ordered me and Fu Jun to come to the rescue."
Luo Quan and others hurriedly expressed their thanks.
Fu Jun looked around and indeed found faint traces of "Rosemary Array".
This rosemary formation belongs to the lowest level among the illusion formations, it doesn't do any harm to the person entering the formation, but it only makes the opponent lose their way, they just circle in the same direction and cannot go out.
It is not difficult to decipher it. You only need to cast a spell to dispel the invisible but colorless fog that causes illusions around you, and then you can see the real road clearly.
For the inner disciples of the Danxiao sect, even those who have just entered the initial stage of Yijian, it is an easy task; but for the outer disciples who have not really started to practice skills, it is indeed quite difficult.
Therefore, it was reasonable for Luo Quan and others to spend several days before breaking out of the formation.
Because Luo Quan and the others are outer disciples, they don't know how to fly with swords. Since Fu Jun and Qin Zhan found them, they simply took them for a ride and flew directly back to the Danxiao Sect. It can make Di Yi feel at ease earlier.
Send Luo Quan and others back to the east courtyard where the disciples of the outer sect lived, and saw Di Yi who hadn't seen him for a long time. Di Yi was relieved to see that everyone was safe and sound, and thanked Fu Jun and Qin Zhan endlessly. They worked hard.
Fu Jun shook his head, Qin Zhan also smiled and said, "It's a trivial matter, why bother to say thank you", and chatted with Di Yi for a while, asking about the recent situation.
Di Yi only said that everything is as usual, and he is still working hard to train himself, hoping to pass the trial and examination of inner disciples in the future.
Fu Jun knew that it would take another two or three years before Du Qifeng and the ninth-generation disciples would start accepting apprentices, so he still couldn't help Di Yi for the time being.
Qin Zhan also comforted Di Yi, saying that he would definitely be able to successfully enter the inner sect and worship a famous teacher.
After bidding farewell to Di Yi, Fu Jun and Qin Zhan went straight back to Jiaziju after leaving the East Courtyard.
Seeing that there was no one around, Qin Zhan suddenly spoke, but seemed to be pondering a bit: "I always feel that those few outer disciples... are indescribably weird."
Fu Jun was slightly taken aback, and immediately asked, "What's so weird?"
"I can't tell what it is," Qin Zhan shook his head slowly, with a thoughtful expression, "I just feel that something is not quite right."
Fu Jun was silent for a while, and said: "There are indeed traces of Rosemary Array near there. And they don't have the slightest devilish energy on them."
Qin Zhan continued to shake his head slightly and said, "It's not about formation or magic energy. I just feel that their words and deeds are a little strange."
Fu Jun was rather puzzled: "But we are strangers to them, today is only the first time we meet, how do you think the other party's words and deeds are weird?"
Luo Quan and others are all disciples who have been new to the outer sect for less than two years. Fu Jun and Qin Zhan have been disciples of the inner sect for nearly three years, and they have never seen any of them.
Qin Zhan looked at him and said with a sudden smile, "Maybe I'm just being superstitious." After a pause, he added, "You know I like to think a lot, so it's not surprising that I guess wrong once in a while, right?"
Although Qin Zhan said so, Fu Jun knew that Qin Zhan's intuition had always been astonishingly accurate, even though it seemed unbelievable at first glance.He thought for a moment, and although it was inconvenient to alert his master Lu Huaifeng before he had any real evidence, he still decided to tell Xiao Yunhui first.
Xiao Yunhui didn't think they were troublesome, so he kindly agreed to investigate.
One day later, Xiao Yunhui came back and told them that he had also used the cleansing technique, and that Luo Quan and the others really did not have evil spirits; in addition, he also asked the outer disciples who were familiar with Luo Quan and the others, and the others also I don't think there is anything unusual about the words and deeds of Luo Quan and others.
Fu Jun thanked Xiao Yunhui, thinking that it was rare for Qin Zhan to have an intuition, so he put the matter aside and didn't think about it any more.
Two days later, it was the eighth day of the fifth lunar month, Xiao Yunhui was ordered by his teacher to go down the mountain to participate in the sword test meeting at Longevity Mountain.
This sword test conference is hosted by the Longevity Sect and invites people from all Daoist sects to participate. The winner in the end will get a seventh-level spirit sword named Frost Moon.
The reason is that Yin Zhengqing, the head of the Longevity Sect, obtained the Frost Moon Sword by chance a few days ago. Yin Zhengqing does not use the sword himself, and his personal weapon is a whisk, and none of his disciples has enough cultivation. Able to match a high-level spirit sword.
Yin Zhengqing didn't want to keep it private, so he wanted to give this sword to someone who was destined.But a sword must be worthy of a hero. Yin Zhengqing didn't want to dishonor the spirit sword, so he set up a post and invited all the sects to come to the competition, and the winner would be the master of the spirit sword.
And Yin Zhengqing has a close personal relationship with Lu Huaifeng. Although he knows that there are many swords in the Danxiao Sect's sacrificial sword pavilion, he still specially sends his disciple Qiu Zidan to send an invitation to invite all the disciples of Danxiao Sect to attend the sword test meeting.
Lu Huaifeng's vision was very high. Although he was not interested in a mere seventh-order spirit sword, he would not lose face to Yin Zhengqing, so he ordered Xiao Yunhui to bring a few people to participate.
Xiao Yunhui took the order and immediately summoned all the disciples on the mountain on the Sword Sharpening Platform to ask who would like to participate. Feel free to sign up. He has the suzerain's permission, so there is no need to have any scruples.
Fu Jun was originally interested in making friends with martial arts, but thinking that he and Qin Zhan already had an eighth-level spirit sword, it was really difficult to compete with others for the Frost Moon Sword.If it's a pure martial arts competition to make friends, you might as well go to participate.
Therefore, Fu Jun didn't say a word in the face of Xiao Yunhui's inquiry, and after Qin Zhan glanced at him sideways, he also smiled and remained silent.
Regarding their reaction, Xiao Yunhui wasn't very surprised, and didn't say much, but just recorded all the people who signed up.
Of the five members of Lu Huaifeng's sect, except for Xiao Yunhui who was the leader, the other four, including Fu Jun and Qin Zhan, did not sign up to participate.But there are quite a few disciples of other elders who enthusiastically signed up.
In the end, Xiao Yunhui counted up the number of applicants, and there were more than [-] people, which was enough to go to the conference, and he would not lose the face of the Danxiao faction.
The Sword Trial Conference of the Longevity Sect was scheduled to start on the ninth day of May and last for three days. The afternoon of the last day was the time to decide the winner.
Now it was the eighth day of May, and now that the candidate had been decided, Xiao Yunhui planned to set off immediately, ordered everyone to go back and prepare their luggage, and Shen Shichu went to the mountain gate to gather and set off.
Fu Jun was listening, but his thoughts could not help but wander slightly.He remembered that there was such a sword test conference in his previous life, which was also hosted by the Longevity Sect, but the winner in the end was not a disciple of the Danxiao Sect, but a lone Taoist cultivator who had no background and no sect. , but I can't remember the specific details.
This is because, at this time in the previous life, the eldest brother Xiao Yunhui had just passed away, and the Danxiao faction was mourning for it, so no one signed up to participate.
Fu Jun was also one of those who mourned Xiao Yunhui's death, so naturally he didn't have the heart to attend any sword-testing meeting.
But in my impression, this sword test meeting was held very smoothly, everyone had a great time, and there was no trouble.
Now that Xiao Yunhui led Dan Xiao to send a group of disciples to sit in the town, it is even less likely that something will happen.
