Names never die.
Xu You was lying leisurely on the top of Zhongling Mountain, she didn't need to take care of anything, her biggest task was to worry about her disciples. Xun Yin had been sent to the Hall of Initial Knowledge for several days, and her daily questions and answers had made her young heart grow old quickly.
Xu You : "How (how is) Hatsumomo (school)?"
Xun Yin: "Nice."
Xu You also asked, "How are the people in the same hall (classmates) (do they get along well)?"
Xun Yin: "Very good."
Xu You asked again, "How (how well) did the old master (teacher) teach?"
Xun Yin: "Pretty good."
"......" She felt like a big old mom, sending her son to a new school, worrying about whether he could adapt to the new environment, how he would get along with his classmates, whether he could keep up with the progress, and whether the teacher taught him well.
Xun Yin, like the majority of students who do not report good news to their families, said everything was good and could not be faulted, but Xu You could not be assured of this, and after another day she followed him, wanting to make a field trip.
He set off in the middle of the night with his wooden sword in his arms, and walked down the mountain alone, accompanied by the dreary night and the cold moonlight.
Although Xun Yin has excellent bones, he has not been taught since he was a child and does not even know how to fly with a sword, and Zhongling Mountain is very far away from the Hall of Initial Knowledge, so if he wants to be late, he has to leave in the middle of the night and keep his feet on the ground.
Xu You forgets this, every time she sleeps until the sun rises, she still thinks Xun Yin left in the morning, no wonder he came back in the stars and moonlight, but he didn't say anything, he should be afraid of troubling her, and also afraid of her impatience.
Xu You can understand the normal reaction of being under the thumb of others.
She pinched an invisibility trick and saw the bright light of sunrise together with him, and also followed him all the way to the Hall of Initial Knowledge.
She sat next to Xun Yin and listened to the lessons all day, and the old man, who he said was quite nice, never looked at him with his nose in the air.
The old man probably thought that Xun Yin had nothing to offer except good looks, and that he had a very poor foundation and little background, yet he was able to become an airborne soldier without even having to take the third grade test.
During his lecture, the old master would occasionally make accusations, and everyone in the audience knew exactly who he was talking about, but the person in question, Xun Yin, had a blank expression and did not react much.
There were more than a thousand students here, only a hundred or so were concentrating on preparing for whichever master's examination, while the remaining majority were ganging up and dividing themselves into camps and forces, mostly rich, powerful and backstage sons of noble families abusing nameless grassroots.
This old man's bowl of water is not even, to the children of the noble family smile and courteous, to the nameless grassroots ignore, so that the first knowledge of the Hall of the extremely poor morale.
A small first acquaintance with the hall has been the first time to see Vulture fairy gatehouse is what kind of place, large and small division of power, just like the "national China".
In the evening, when the class was over, Xun Yin picked up his wooden sword and headed out, he was stopped by a group of people, the leader of which gave him a push: "Newcomer, if you crawl through my □□□ today and call me master on top, I will let you go, how about it?"
The others laughed in agreement, "Look at his wooden face, he still thinks he can be so horizontal, but in the end, he still has to be cleaned up properly!"
"Don't be ungrateful, just give in and beg for mercy."
No one stops the cacophony in the lobby, many people are already accustomed to seeing it, and some are afraid to stop it.
"He still has the nerve to take the wooden sword issued by the academy, he obviously doesn't even know how to defend the sword."
With that said, someone stepped forward and tried to kick down Xun Yin to grab the sword, Xu You lifted his fingertips, the wooden sword in Xun Yin's hand came out of its sheath and flew out, swirling around in the air twice, and then with the rapidity of appearing lights and shadows, he knocked more than a dozen people to the ground, all of them spanked and swollen in a single blow.
"Ouch!"
"Ouch--"
The only one who was hit in the crotch was the one in the lead. He covered the key area with both hands and fell to the ground with a red face, his face twisted in pain, "Damn you, how dare you backstab me, stone number quickly take my Jinling sword!"
The children of noble families all had attendants to wait on them and famous weapons that they could show off everywhere, and many of them reacted by taking out their precious magic weapons.
Regardless of whether it was a famous weapon or a magic treasure, in Xu You's eyes it was not enough to be looked at, she turned her finger again, those people hadn't even finished reciting the spell to activate the magic treasure, the magic treasure was cut in half by the wooden sword, which was used to break the wind like it was slicing tofu.
"My, my sword ......"
"My halberd, it's over, it's over, my father's going to beat me to death."
All the people in the room were shocked, the most calm only Xun Yin, wooden sword back to the sheath, he pushed the door out, no one dared to stop.
Xu You scanned the people, noting down a few faces before leaving behind Xun Yin.
He looked at the hilt of the sword, and then looked away from the direction of Zhongling Mountain, pondering a little.
Xu You knew that he had guessed, and thought that he would ask when he came back, but he didn't, and his look and words were the same as usual.
That night, Xu You said to Seven Eight, "Spend two hundred points to make me skilled in all the spells of my original body, I have a vague premonition that there will be a hard battle to be fought, and I'm afraid that it's too late to familiarize myself with the spells slowly."
"Good," Seven Eight asked her again after agreeing in one mouthful, "Host, where did you get that premonition?"
"From a woman's magical and precise intuition." Xu You was too lazy to explain to it, the one thing she could predict from the very beginning of her apprenticeship, she felt vaguely in her heart that it was coming soon.
After Xu You folded a green bird to send a message down the mountain, he sat cross-legged and entered a state of cultivation.
A message that flew around every corner like the wind - tomorrow at noon, the Left Mansion Master Xu You held an apprentice acceptance ceremony.
If the master of the house accepts an apprentice, he will organize an apprentice ceremony that the whole house will be watching, and even the people who are in seclusion will have to come out to participate in the ceremony.
Overnight, the whole Vulture fairy gatehouse is talking about boiling, only Zhongling Mountain is quiet as usual.
--
The midday sun pours down, the shadow reflected in the soles of the feet, Xu You facing the daylight, standing on top of the high platform, below is a glance at the densely packed people, have a master, leaning on the master's rank, standing behind him, no master will stand at the end of the place.
There's no shortage of chatter in a crowded place-
"I heard that person's name is Xun Yin , which sect is he from? How come I've never heard of it."
"I even passed the Palace Master's examination, and the Left Mansion Master didn't accept me, but even accepted a wild boy with no roots!"
"The Left Mansion Master has started accepting disciples? I guess I'll be taking on disciples in the future then, but I don't like the idea of a nameless person being my Senior Brother."
"Saying that, the Left Mansion Master can look upon you."
"Bullshit, at least I'm a hundred times better than him."
......
There were only three people on the platform, Wuli Song, Xu You and Xun Yin.
"Senior sister is so big, even I was surprised," Wuli Song swept his eyes at Xun Yin and said to Xu You, "Why are you in such a hurry?"
Xu You smiles inscrutably, "I'm afraid it's too late."
Wuli Song didn't know what she meant for a moment, and saw her say to the Priestess, "Begin."
The priest recited a long speech to the effect that a master has the duty to teach and a disciple should be grateful in return and so on, and then unveiled a piece of red cloth, revealing a huge crystal motto stone.
The Crystal Inscription Stone never perishes, and when it encounters daylight, it shines brightly, and the flowing text on it is the name of the person who became the House Master's disciple.
The stone is divided into left and right sides, the top of the right side is engraved with the name of Wuli Song, and there are dozens of names underneath him, while on the left side, under Xu You's name, there is a blank space.
Xun Yin, who was calm on the stage, but whose hands were hidden under the sleeves of his coat and whose palms were sweaty, saw Xu You pick up the carving knife and carve his name on the spot closest to hers.
Their names, together, will never die.
The sunlight fell on her, her brow was focused, her lips were red, and with every stroke, his heart was scratched so tightly that towards the daylight, he held his breath so much that his brain was dazzled.
Xu You put down the carving knife and walked over to him, removing the black and white fan on his waist, transforming the fan into the black and white swords, and extending the black swords in front of him.
Xun Yin froze.
The people watching below immediately exploded, ''Obsidian Sword! That's the Obsidian Sword! One of the six famous weapons!"
"Just give it away?!"
"What kind of master would give his best sword to his disciple?!"
Master at least also accept more than fifty disciples, will inevitably be biased, some disciples can not be mixed with familiar, fighting, many people in order to get the master's favor, all kinds of disguise to please, the master does not see what will give the treasure, at best, pointing out the cultivation of magic.
And the Left Mansion Master, who carries a sword and says he'll give it to him, this disciple has only just been initiated.
Wuli Song also couldn't sit still and stepped forward, "Senior sister, the White Yun Black Yao Twin Swords were given to you by Master, how can you give them to your disciple?"
"Elder brother also said that this is something given to me by master, so it is mine," Xu You's tone was wave-less, "How should I deal with it, I'm afraid that the elder master won't ask more than one question."
The implication is that it's your turn to talk.
Wuli Song's expression changed and changed.
Xu You: "From this day on, Xun Yin is my Xu You's disciple. Anyone who doesn't like it can come and learn from me."
Her words were not soft, but they were clearly audible to all present.
The crowd was dumbfounded and smacked their lips for a moment, trying to find out who would dare to come forward for advice.
Xun Yin kneeled on the ground, received the obsidian sword, as far as the line of sight could only see her flawless white skirt, the high platform and tens of thousands of people have become a hazy background, the noise like the ebbing tide as far away.
All he could hear was her word for word, falling into his heart one at a time.
--
When the ceremony was over, a message came from the disciples, "Some people are gathering at the Vulture fairy gatehouse, saying that they want the person of Xun Yin."
When this news entered, the crowd instantly clamored, "After a hundred years, someone finally dares to come to the Gate House to pick a fight, not a small amount of guts!"
" Xun Yin , isn't that the one who has just become the first disciple of the left house lord ......"
The teenager on the stage's eyes were obscure, the knuckles holding the hilt of his sword whitened with force, obviously thinking of who the visitor was.
Xu You blocked in front of him and said lightly, "What are you afraid of, just let you see the ability of the master, or let you feel that you have entered the right door."
"It is they who should be afraid." Xu You said.
Xun Yin was stunned and looked over to see her openly and recklessly hooking her red lips, oblivious to the trouble she was about to face.
