"Um...what do you mean?"

Xiang Yun is a little confused, so what does the Niu Mansion sending people to visit Fatty Niu have to do with Fatty Niu taking out the sword?

Fatty Niu naturally trusted Xiang Yun completely and had no intention of hiding it at all, although this was not the first time that the housekeeper named Deng reminded him that no one should tell anyone about this matter.

"Boss, you know my saber and sword, right? These are antiques passed down from my ancestors. I heard they are some great treasures. The old man has always treasured them very much and asked me to wear them since I was a child."

"Of course I know, this is your family's heirloom. When you are wearing crotchless pants and walking around the streets of Dragon City, aren't you wearing this sword?"

Xiang Yun still remembers that on the Longcheng Street, there was often a little meat ball with a sword on his waist and a bird hanging on it, walking around in an arrogant manner.

All day long I kept chanting: "When I take out my sword from its sheath, the sun and the moon will not shine, and I will be invincible in the world"!

But Fatty Niu's words are just a joke in everyone's eyes. As for this sword and sword, it can be so casually held by a kid wearing crotchless pants with a bird hanging on it, all over the street.

If you run away, it will definitely not be a treasure.

The sword has never been unsheathed for so many years, and may have become rusty, so no one has ever thought about Fatty Niu's swords.

However, Xiang Yun now remembered that when he was in the Black Golden Ape's lair, Fatty Niu held a sword, jumped up high, and cut off the youth with one sword!

He couldn't help but stare at the sword on Fatty Niu's waist and look at it.

"Hiss... Is there really something mysterious about your swords and swords?"

Fatty Niu had a fat face and sighed: "Hey... forget it, it was all because of this sword that I provoked this damn black-faced old man, and he still wants to escort me back to Dragon City!"

"Well...back to Dragon City, what's going on?"

"Alas... Boss, you don't know. When I was very young, my father said that I was the hope of the family, and then he handed me the sword that had been enshrined in the ancestral hall for hundreds of years, and even bled me. What did you say?

The blood recognizes the master, it hurts so much that I almost want to beat someone up."

"I asked my dad if this sword was a great treasure. He said he couldn't tell me yet. Only when I pull out the sword one day can I know all the secrets."

"oh……?"

When Xiang Yun heard Fatty Niu talking about dripping blood to identify one's master, Xiang Yun's heart suddenly moved. Xiang Yun had never seen this method of dripping blood to identify one's master, and even ordinary cloud weapons could not use this ritual.

From reading novels in my previous life, it seemed that only those magical artifacts from the immortal family that possessed spirituality would require such a mysterious process of shedding blood to identify their masters.

Could it be that Niu Fatzi's swords are really great treasures? Otherwise, it would not have been enshrined in the ancestral hall of the Minister of Justice for a hundred years.

"Hey, by the way, how did they know you had drawn your sword?" Xiang Yun asked suddenly.

"I...I don't know what happened. That time I let the sword out of its sheath in the cave. On the third day, this old man Deng came. It was really annoying. If it weren't for his high cultivation level and his old age,

I would have beaten him long ago!"

Xiang Yun ignored Fatty Niu's complaints and continued to ask: "By the way, Fatty Niu, the move you used in the cave that day was really powerful. When did you, the kid, carry me behind your back and become so powerful?"

Martial arts?"

Fatty Niu looked innocent: "Boss, please don't accuse me unfairly. When did I practice martial arts? I have to go to the gambling house to supervise and inspect the brothel every day. How can I have time to do that training?"

The hard work of martial arts.”

"I don't know how I pulled off the move that day. Anyway, I was just in a hurry, so I just took the sword out of its sheath and used it."

After hearing Fatty Niu's explanation, Xiang Yun frowned and thought for a while before speaking.

"That's right. It's rare for your kid to practice meditation even once. How can you possibly develop martial arts? Are you really a genius that only happens once in a hundred years?"

"Hehe..." Fatty Niu was happy when he heard this, his brows were filled with joy, and he said to Xiang Yun mysteriously.

"Boss, don't tell me, maybe I am really a genius."

"I said you are fat and you are really out of breath. Which eye of yours is blind to realize that you are a genius?"

"Oh, boss, I'm telling you the truth!" Seeing that Xiang Yun didn't believe it, Fatty Niu immediately started to defend himself anxiously.

"Boss, you don't know. When I was in the imperial capital of Dragon City, I was walking around the house one day and happened to hear my father and my eldest brother talking in the room. Although my father spoke softly at the time, I have a good ear.

Make it happen."

"I heard with my own ears that my father said that I am a 'bright sword heart and a condensed sword soul'. I am born with the aptitude for swordsmanship and swordsmanship. What a unique talent, it seems that I will have great potential in the future!"

"The heart of the sword is bright and the soul of the sword is condensed!" Xiang Yun was shocked when he heard this.

He didn’t know what the ‘soul of the sword’ was, but he had heard of the state of ‘bright heart of the sword’. In Jin Yong’s novels, the clear mind of the sword was a very high realm of swordsmanship!

To practice swordsmanship, you just practice swordsmanship and moves at first, but the higher you practice to a higher level, the more emphasis is placed on the integration of human and sword, the unity of human and sword, and even the unity of heaven, earth, and man!

The most important thing to achieve all this is the human heart, which is the hub of the unity of these three!

Among them, "Kendo Enlightenment" is a state that can only be achieved after reaching a certain level of swordsmanship and a higher level of understanding of the sword.

Many people may not be able to reach this level even if they practice swordplay for a lifetime.

The people who have reached this level in Jin Yong's novels are all masters of martial arts. Of course, he is the only one who has reached the level of swordsmanship where "heaven and man are one" like Dugu Qiubai.

Now, Fatty Niu actually said that he was born with a good swordsmanship. How could Xiang Yun not be surprised? Although this guy often talks nonsense, he never tells lies about this kind of thing.

"I've never seen you mention these things before?" Xiang Yun asked doubtfully.

With the character of Fatty Niu, if he had known about these things earlier, he would have been so proud that he would have shown them off all over the street. Why did he only talk to himself now?

But Fatty Niu said with a stern look on his face: "Hey, boss, do you know what it means to be low-key? And my father once said that men should learn to hide their edge, so as not to become a big tree and attract the wind. How can I be a genius?

What about showing off?”

Hearing this, Xiang Yun couldn't help but sneer, wondering what kind of thing Fatty Niu was, how could he know?

And Xiang Yun's guess was indeed correct. The reason why Fatty Niu didn't publicize that he was a genius was because Fatty Niu himself didn't even believe that he was a genius.

At the age of fifteen or sixteen, he has only reached the level of a warrior. How far does his talent fall? Niu Fatty naturally has self-awareness. If he still tells others that he is a genius with a clear sword and heart, shouldn't he be laughed at?

"Eh... By the way, Fatty Niu, when will you return to Dragon City?"

As soon as he mentioned returning to Longcheng, Fatty Niu, who was in high spirits just now, suddenly became speechless and said feebly: "I have to leave in a month at most."

"When will you come back?"

"Alas..." Fatty Niu sighed and said, "Boss, this time, I will probably never come back."

"If you're not just going home, how can you never come back?" Xiang Yun looked at Fatty Niu in confusion.

"Boss, you don't know that my father has a brain convulsion and wants to kill me. He actually wants me to go back and take part in the imperial competition!"

"Dachao meeting?"

Xiang Yun heard this word again, and quickly searched the memory in his mind, and finally some impressions appeared.

Once every three years, Fengyun Kingdom will hold a great court meeting. At that time, all the countries will come to congratulate and the whole country will rejoice together. It is really lively. It is a rare event in Fengyun Kingdom in several years!

As for what Fatty Niu said, Xiang Yun was still a little unclear about what kind of competition the great dynasties would have.

He vaguely knew that a competition would be held in the Royal Garden on the eastern outskirts of Dragon City during the Great Court Meeting.

But at that time every year, Xiang Yun would leave Longcheng and avoid this competition, because he was born without spiritual roots and had always been out of sight and out of mind when it came to competitions between Yun warriors.

Seeing the doubtful look on Xiang Yun's face, Fatty Niu knew that Xiang Yun didn't know the details of the competition in the Great Dynasty.

The latter then vividly recounted the scene of Fengyun Academy recruiting disciples during the Great Court Meeting, and the tit-for-tat confrontation between Fengyun Kingdom's younger generation of geniuses.

"Fengyun Academy." Xiang Yun asked doubtfully: "Isn't this a place for teaching? Why do those martial arts geniuses go there? Is it to read and write?"

"Oh my God, boss, you don't even know about Fengyun Academy, are you still a member of our Fengyun country!" Fatty Niu exclaimed in disbelief.

Xiang Yun could only smile helplessly. The young prince at that time would subconsciously avoid talking about anything related to Warrior Yun, and others did not dare to say too much about cultivation in front of him.

Therefore, even if it is a holy land for cultivation like 'Fengyun Academy', Xiang Yun only knows the name, but does not know the true situation of Fengyun Academy.

"Boss, Fengyun Academy has gathered together. The sects of all the strongest masters from our Fengyun country and the other thirteen vassal countries are the number one sect in the northwest of the continent. They threaten the entire northwest continent. They are not ordinary powerful.

!”

"The number one sect in the northwest!" Xiang Yun was shocked, suddenly knowing the importance of this academy!

"Your father wants you to enter Fengyun Academy?"

"Of course, my dad doesn't know what he thinks. Fengyun Academy recruits only a handful of disciples every year. Those perverts from our Fengyun Kingdom may not be able to squeeze in even if they squeeze their heads one by one. I

If a Sanyun warrior joins in the fun, isn't he looking for death?"

The fat on Fatty Niu's face twitched as he spoke, and his expression was uglier than crying. It was obvious that he desperately didn't want to participate in this competition at the Great Court.

In response to Xiang Xiang, Yun just patted Fatty Niu on the shoulder: "It's okay, your father is the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, they will give him more or less face and won't beat you to death!"

"Uh...Boss, what I'm worried about is not the opponents in the competition. No matter how powerful they are, the worst I can do is not fight and just admit defeat. What I'm worried about is the problems we have created in Dragon City."

When Fatty Niu said this, his chubby body couldn't help but tremble, and he made waves.

"Boss, you said that we offended so many people in Longcheng, and now I am going back alone. Those guys in Longcheng have been holding back their anger for several years, and if they are all released on my head, then I will have to escape even if I don't die.

It’s a layer of skin.”

Indeed, what Fatty Niu is most worried about now is the enemies he provoked in Dragon City.

If he returns to Longcheng, these people will definitely cause trouble. The three Qin brothers and sisters were obviously recruited by those people in the gambling shop to frame him. Now that he returns to Longcheng, it is like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth.

.

"Boss, why don't you just go back with me, so we can take care of you, right?" Fatty Niu looked at Xiang Yun, with a look of anticipation on his face.

However, Xiang Yun decisively shook his head and refused.

"Come on, I don't have the time. You should just go on your own. If you really die in Dragon City, I'll come over and help you collect the body."

"Boss... you can't do this!"

Fatty Niu felt like he was mourning for his heir, and he tried his best to persuade Xiang Yun to accompany him, but Xiang Yun just leaned back on his chair, narrowed his eyes, and ignored him at all.

Fatty Niu moaned for a long time, and Xiang Yun finally opened his eyes.
