Chapter 295 Believe Me, You and Chunyang Palace Are Destined

"In addition to the bonus, there is also the sword..."

Although the newspaper did not specify what the swords were made of or how long it took to make them, it must be something extraordinary for the two major villas, Badao and Cangjian, to bring them out on such an occasion!
Thinking of this, Lu Ping felt a surge of eagerness in his heart.

"Hehehe...I'm sure to win the championship of this competition!"

But before that, I have to find two teammates and get a sword sticker.

The sword and knife posts are easy to deal with. There is definitely a lot of information about this in the underworld. If you go to places like scalpers, casinos, and brothels, you will definitely find some clues.

If it really doesn't work, I will lie in ambush near the West Lake in Hangzhou and wait for those who hold the sword stickers to deliver the things to my door.

What Lu Ping found difficult was finding two teammates who got along well with him.

Those who participate in this kind of event must be masters in the world. If two teammates are not strong enough, they may face a situation of one against three.

Moreover, if three people form a team, the tacit understanding between the members and the compatibility of their martial arts are also very important.

But I just arrived and I'm unfamiliar with the place. It's really hard to find two teammates who are of decent strength, have good cooperation and good martial arts compatibility...

and many more!

Isn’t there a ready-made teammate right in front of you?
If Shen Jianxin could master the 'Heavenly Path Blue Peak' which has a time-stopping effect, and the 'Pure Yang Tai Chi Two Principles Four Symbols Eight Diagrams Fist' which is similar to Turtle Wave Qigong...

"Hero Shen... No, Xinxin!"

Looking at Lu Ping's strange smile and inexplicable name, Shen Jianxin's hands, which were eating noodles, suddenly froze, and a creepy chill rose in his heart.

"What do you want to do?"

clap clap clap...

Lu Ping patted the newspaper in his hand, pointed at the news about the "Sword Fighting Tournament", and said with a smile: "Are you interested in this?"

"Sword fighting competition? Of course I'm interested!"

Shen Jianxin's eyes suddenly lit up, but then he became depressed again: "But I don't know martial arts, isn't it too late to start learning now..."

"It's okay!"

Lu Ping slammed the table and encouraged loudly: "I see that you are a genius with extraordinary aptitude. As long as you work hard, you will definitely make rapid progress in martial arts!"

"really?"

Shen Jianxin's voice instantly rose several decibels: "When will you teach me martial arts?"

"Don't worry about this for now. My martial arts are actually not suitable for you."

Hearing Lu Ping's excuse, Shen Jianxin suddenly felt that he was deceived again, and his expression instantly fell: "Are you going to say next that you want to send me to a big sect for further study?"

Lu Ping was stunned: "How do you know?"

Shen Jianxin said with his eyes drooping: "There are so many such scams in the underworld. First, they get close to people and deceive the feelings of ignorant young people. Then they use various means to trick people into a remote mountain. In the end, they either give away their heart and soul or exploit them as free labor for the rest of their lives..."

Lu Ping was speechless for a moment: "You are quite vigilant."

"But you guessed wrong. I'm not going to send you to Shankala. Have you ever thought about going to Chunyang Palace?"

"Chun Yang Palace?!"

"That's the most famous sect in the martial arts world!!"

Shen Jianxin was startled, his face changed drastically, and he began to talk about the past: "I once had a dream, which was to join the Chunyang Palace, learn the world-class martial arts, and then worship under Lu Zu and become the seventh son of Chunyang."

"Unfortunately, Chunyang Palace has a limited number of enrollments each year, and the requirements are very demanding..."

After a period of imagination and loss, Shen Jianxin's eyes changed when he looked at Lu Ping. His eyes were sparkling and shining: "Do you have a way for me to join Chunyang Palace? Are you..."

"no!"

Lu Ping laughed and interrupted Shen Jianxin's guess.

Bang-!
Shen Jianxin fell to the ground speechlessly, then stood up again and yelled, "Then what the hell are you talking about here!"

"I know you're in a hurry, but don't worry yet."

Lu Ping waved his hand, motioning Shen Jianxin to sit down, and said dimly: "To be honest, I know a little about divination and fortune-telling. I have found that you have great luck and talent, and you have a connection with Chunyang Palace. As long as you go to Chunyang Palace, you will be accepted as a personal disciple and learn peerless martial arts!"

"Three months is enough time for you to stand at the top of the world!"

Hearing this, Shen Jianxin couldn't help but exclaimed: "Is it true? Are you sure you can tell it right?" Looking at Lu Ping who looked younger than himself, Shen Jianxin was a little unsure about what he called "divination".

"Whether it's accurate or not, you can find out after spending three months trying it."

Upon hearing this, Shen Jianxin immediately lowered his head and fell into deep thought.

He has worked as a security guard in Daoxiangcun for eight years, with a basic salary of three taels of silver a month and a minimum living allowance of five insurances and one fund, and he lives a life barely able to make ends meet.

His meager income made him afraid to even have a relationship or go on a spontaneous trip, because that would not only exhaust his meager savings, but he might even lose his current security job.

With nowhere to release my passion, I can only slack off at work every day, dreaming unrealistic dreams, and then spending the day in a daze.

But this kind of life is not what he wants!
His dream is to become a hero and do great things like defending his country and helping the weak!
After a long time, when Shen Jianxin raised his head again, his eyes had changed and become extremely firm.

"I go!"

The next day, Lu Ping and Shen Jianxin, who had quit his security job, gathered at Daoxiang Village Carriage Shop.

The two of them got ready and prepared to go to Chunyang Palace.

By this time, the time for Chunyang Palace to recruit new disciples had long passed, and there were no Chunyang disciples around Daoxiang Village to introduce them, so the two had to go on their own.

In order to send Shen Jianxin to Chunyang Palace safely, Lu Ping had to temporarily give up his plan to go to Qixiu to listen to music and watch dance.

After some bargaining, the two rented a carriage, headed north to Yangzhou, headed west along Luodao, crossed Fenghua Valley, and finally arrived at the territory of Chunyang Palace after a few days.

There was heavy snow in front of the mountain. The sky, the mountain and the earth were all connected into one silver-white piece, vast and indescribable.

For a moment, both of them were shocked by the scenery before them.

The carriage could only go up to the foot of the mountain, so the two had to pay the fare and choose to climb the mountain on foot, stepping on the crystal snow, slowly walking towards the Taoist temple on the top of the mountain, step by step.

Chunyang Palace was founded by Taoist Shanshi in the past and has a history of nearly a hundred years in the martial arts world.

There is a poem here that says: "The mysterious Kunlun realm is beyond the mountains, and the universe has a cave of yin and yang. I only ask where the true lord is, not to look for the sword immortal in the rivers and lakes."

The state religion of the Li Tang Dynasty was Taoism, and Chunyang Palace was the leader of all Taoist sects in Dongwulin. Therefore, the royal family and Chunyang Palace had a close relationship, and the latter was responsible for praying for the royal family.

Disciples of the Chunyang lineage focus on cultivating their personal state of mind.

They regard heaven, earth and man as the "three origins", believing that man is the spirit of all things. The fundamental purpose of practice is to cultivate the mind and nourish the nature, cultivate the nature and nourish the life, and achieve physical and mental health and longevity by practicing pure yang energy internally and pure yang body externally.

In the martial arts world, due to the influence of Taoist thoughts, disciples of Chunyang Palace often go down the mountain to preach. During this period, they often help the weak and fight against the strong, uphold justice, and influence the world. Therefore, the reputation of Chunyang Palace in the martial arts world is first-class, and they basically do not make enemies with others.

Taoist Shanshi accepted several disciples in his lifetime, among whom there were six most famous ones. There is a poem saying:

Purple gold gathers pure yang, the clear moon illuminates the spiritual heart, jade is hidden in the deep mountains, and clouds flow across the four seas.

The six people mentioned in the poem were called the "Six Pure Yang Sons" by the Jianghu people, namely:
'Jingxuzi' Xie Yunliu, 'Yuxuzi' Li Wangsheng, 'Lingxuzi' Shangguan Boyu, 'Qingxuzi' Yu Rui, 'Zixuzi' Qi Jin, 'Jinxuzi' Zhuo Fengming.

The current head of Chunyang is Li Wangsheng, the second disciple of Taoist Shanshi.

As for the eldest disciple Xie Yunliu, he was involved in the royal regime due to careless friendships when he was young, and was forced to flee to Japan for more than 20 years. After returning to the Tang Dynasty, many changes happened again.

More than ten years ago, Xie Yunliu set up his own sect and founded a new martial arts school, the Dao Sect, so he is not in Chunyang Palace now.

On the way up the mountain, Lu Ping and Shen Jianxin recounted the Chunyang anecdotes that were widely circulated in the martial arts world, which allowed Lu Ping to re-understand the current situation of this sect.

The story of Xie Yunliu leaving Chunyang was not much different from what he remembered.

But later, Fujiwara Hirotsugu controlled the Ittoryu and came to the Tang Dynasty to cause chaos, but the original development was different.

If the game plot develops according to the situation, the battle at the Shenwu ruins in the palace should have happened two years ago - because of Fujiwara Hirotsugu's design, Xie Yunliu had misunderstandings with many sects in the martial arts world, and then Luo Feng was mistakenly killed by Qi Jin.

However, in this world, the story developed differently and Luo Feng did not die.

The source of the change in the story was not that Qi Jin suddenly calmed down that day, but Fujiwara Hirotsugu!
Two years ago, what Fujiwara Hirotsugu wanted was not only the martial arts of the many sects in the Tang Dynasty, but also the dragon veins of the Eastern Wulin!

“Dragon vein…?”

Seeing that Lu Ping seemed curious, Shen Jianxin told him what he knew.

"It is said that after the great changes in the world, the spirit beast Azure Dragon voluntarily sacrificed itself to maintain the stability of the earth's energy. Azure Dragon's flesh and blood are connected to a part of the earth veins in a part of the East Wulin territory. The earth veins affected by the power of Azure Dragon are the 'Dragon Veins'."

Lu Ping was stunned when he heard this, and then he suddenly realized.

Isn't this the same as when the Western Sword School invaded the Southern Martial Arts World?!
