Chapter 35: News from the Jianghu

"Are you singing?"

"How's it going? Does it sound good?"

Lu Hua'er tried hard to control her expression, and finally said: "Goose goose goose goose~~!"

The girl really didn't hold back and laughed out loud.

Lu Yuan just glanced sideways at him.

Lu Hua'er laughed for a while before stopping. She reached out and patted Lu Yuan, "Well, actually you can sing pretty well, but the tune is a bit weird. I think the original song should be good. Come and teach me how to sing."

Lu Yuan hummed twice before teaching the original song to Lu Hua'er.

After learning it, Lu Huaer took some time to think about it and sang a cappella.

For a moment, Lu Yuan felt as if the song "Bai Suzhen at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain" had been rewritten.

Lu Hua'er's voice was originally a little cute, but now when she sings the little song, she seems to be a different person. The song is as clear as a mountain stream and as gentle as a lark in the forest. Every word and phrase seems to come alive. Ancient opera The singing style is paired with modern tunes, which makes people involuntarily think of the broken bridges in Suzhou and Hangzhou, talented people and beautiful women, etc., making people indulge in it without knowing it, and subconsciously clap along with the ditty.

As soon as the song was finished, Lu Hua'er's face turned slightly red, her eyes filled with anticipation and a little bit of shyness. At that moment, the sun shone through the gaps between the forest leaves and fell on the girl's face.

In that scene, the girl looked like a fairy in a painting, charming and innocent as water.

Lu Yuan was in a daze for a moment and pretended to sigh, "No matter how majestic the country is, it is not as good as a beautiful woman singing. Hua'er, I can finally understand why those emperors can abandon their country and choose beauties."

Lu Hua'er was stunned by the praise. When she realized what she was saying, her cheeks warmed up rapidly. Her eyes subconsciously glanced to the left and right, wanting to laugh but wanting to hold back. She felt dizzy and her expressions were quite rich.

"Oh, you're talking nonsense again, I'm ignoring you~~~!"

After she finished speaking, she stamped her feet and flew out. She originally planned to ask about the name of the song, but she didn't care anymore.

Behind him, Lu Yuan chuckled and stepped up to follow.

Qingcheng Sect, as the largest Jianghu sect in the area, you don't have to look for it, just ask anyone and they will know the location.

At this time, Yu Canghai and others have not returned yet.

It can only be said that Lu Yuan and the two were traveling too fast.

Telling the story of the new White Snake to Lu Hua'er, the two of them sneaked into the sect extremely skillfully, knocked out the remaining disciples, and found out the leader's room.

Then there was another burst of tapping, and he skillfully found the hidden compartment where Yu Canghai had hidden the secret book.

Soon, seven secret books including "Songfeng Sword Technique", "Heart-Destroying Palm", "Shadowless Phantom Leg", and "Crane Jiuxiao Divine Art" fell into the hands of the two of them.

Lu Yuan flipped through it quickly, and except for "Heart-Destroying Palm" from the Nine Yin Manual, which was barely considered a masterpiece, the rest were all top-of-the-line products.

After absorbing it, the biggest gain from this trip was that Lu Yuan's internal power had another penetrating characteristic that could complement An Jin. As for the rest, maybe I just finished reading martial arts such as "Nine Yin" and "Subduing the Dragon", and in comparison, I feel like there is a gap between delicacies and coarse food.

However, it was still somewhat rewarding. As usual, Lu Yuan found paper and pen and wrote down the upgraded version of "Songfeng Divine Sword". Compared with the original "Songfeng Sword Art", after practicing it to a great level, he could attack like a thousand pines falling in the rain. The movement is the strong wind in the forest.

When he was done, Lu Yuan put the manuscript into the secret compartment together with other secret books.

After that, Lu Yuan took Lu Hua'er and left the Qingcheng Sect.

The two of them did not go down the mountain, but visited the Taoist temple near Qingcheng Mountain.

There are dozens of Taoist temples on this mountain alone, such as Tianshi Cave, Jianfu Palace, Shangqing Palace, Zushi Palace, Yuanming Palace, Laojun Pavilion, Yuqing Palace, Chaoyang Cave, etc.

There may be repetitions in the Taoist scriptures, but each Taoist priest has a different understanding of the scriptures. This time Lu Yuan did not sneak in to read it, but deliberately discussed it in detail with each Taoist priest.

Regarding the Taoist Scriptures, Lu Yuan initially wanted to be like other time travellers, relying on his understanding to directly see through immortality and figure out the method of cultivating immortals. However, after actually reading the Taoist Scriptures, he realized that he was very wrong.

It feels like giving you a third-grade mathematics textbook and asking you to write a college "Curve Integral and Surface Integral".

His incredible understanding allows him to continuously innovate and improve on the existing knowledge system, but he cannot create something out of nothing.

After recognizing the reality, Lu Yuan began to read extensively about various scriptures and knowledge in order to seek the day when he could accumulate more knowledge.

When Lu Yuan was concentrating on studying and talking about Taoism everywhere.

Yu Canghai also rushed back to the Qingcheng sect with his disciple Feng Chen servant.

The day after returning, Yu Canghai notified the public that he was going to retreat.

After a month of this, the leader was in the small courtyard.

Yu Canghai was holding a long sword, with a strange figure and tricky swordsmanship. The green plants in the courtyard rustled and fell.

After some practice, Yu Canghai sheathed his sword and stood up. His originally fierce face now looked more soft and beautiful.

There was a look of satisfaction on his face.

Half a month to recuperate and half a month to practice.

This "Evil-Repelling Sword Technique" has just been completed, and it is so powerful that it is not worth the effort he put into it.

"Headmaster."

At this time, the disciple's slightly hesitant voice came from outside the courtyard.

"Enter!"

The disciple heard the sound and entered, looked at Yu Canghai who had obviously changed from a month ago, lowered his head and hesitated even more.

"What's the matter?"

"Well, Master, in recent days, there has been news about the "Evil Sword Manual"..."

"Huh? Is it Yue Buqun or Mu Gaofeng?"

"None...none, I mean...uh..."

"Stop hesitating!"

The disciple lowered his head and said, "It's about...the shortcomings of the "Evil Sword Manual"."

Yu Canghai's expression changed immediately. He stared at the disciple in front of him, narrowed his eyes slightly, and continued to ask calmly: "Oh, what are the disadvantages?"

"Say... I want to practice this skill..." The disciple swallowed his saliva and said the second half of the sentence: "You must first commit suicide!"

After speaking, the place suddenly fell into an eerie silence. The disciple who reported the report started to sweat on his forehead. It took a while before Yu Canghai said, "Is there anything else?"

It seemed that because he had already spoken, the disciple followed up a lot, "There is also a legend that the "Evil Sword Manual" is the same as the "Sunflower Book". If you want to practice it, you need to practice it in the palace. It is suspected that it was specially practiced by the eunuchs in the palace. Later, it was deliberately leaked just to bring trouble to the world."

"Fart~!"

Yu Canghai shouted angrily, intending to express his emotions, but the tone of his voice was actually very thin, and the ending tone even turned a corner.

Yu Canghai's eyes clearly flashed with fear when he heard his voice.

Fortunately, the disciple in front of him always lowered his head and did not see his panic.

But the other party could hear the sound clearly, and the body standing there was trembling slightly.

Yu Canghai's eyes flashed with murderous intent, but then it dissipated and turned into something complicated.

"Don't listen to those rumors, and don't spread them around the house. Do you understand?!"

Hearing Yu Canghai's hidden words, the other party nodded quickly.

"Disciple understands that those rumors are all false. I don't know anything and I won't say anything!"

Yu Canghai stared at the other party for a while, then waved his sleeves and said, "Let's go!"

"Yes!" The disciple hurriedly left the small courtyard as if he had been granted amnesty.

Just as he was about to take a step forward, another inquiry came from behind him.

"When and where did the news come out?"

"I don't know the specific time. It started spreading two days ago. The initial location was in our Chengdu Prefecture."

After the disciple answered, seeing that Yu Canghai had no more questions, he quickly bowed and left.
