The breeze is gentle, and in May, the bamboo forest is very cool.

There is a bamboo hut in the bamboo forest. In the bamboo hut, two men in cloth clothes are playing chess.

Both men were in their forties, with one looking slightly yellow and slightly sunken cheeks, while the other was slightly fat and looked a little rich.

Soon, rustling footsteps sounded in the quiet bamboo forest. A boy in a strong suit brought some refreshments and presented a letter to the sallow man.

"It's a good move."

The sallow-faced man opened the letter and looked at it, couldn't help but smile and said.

The man who looked a little rich was thinking about the chessboard. When he heard this, he looked up and smiled bitterly: "Brother Yu, you are just talking nonsense. This move I just stinks, and I'm afraid I'm not going to be able to recover now."

"I'm not our chess game, but someone from Bashan Sword Field."

The man with a sallow face smiled and said, "You should have heard of the swordsman named Wang Jingmeng in the Bashan Sword Field yesterday challenging Qiu Guyu in the drying field. Today's letter is his challenge."

"this……"

The rich man was stunned and suddenly became angry, saying, "Isn't this bullying? Brother Yu, you have not recovered from the serious illness. He is looking for you to compete with swords. Isn't this taking advantage of others' danger?"

"How could they know that I happened to be seriously ill?" The man with a waxy face was Yu Xiuchun. He put down the letter, but he seemed to be more satisfied with it. He said: "Last night, I heard someone say what he said in the drying yard, and I felt that he was not that kind of reckless man. Now he is choosing me as his second opponent in Changling, which is really amazing."

"how?"

The rich man was even more stunned, "Brother Yu, why do I feel that you are happy? I feel that you are happy. I feel happy. My foolish brother is clumsy and can't figure out what Miaozhi is."

Yu Xiuchun no longer had the intention to play chess. He took the chess pieces, put them on refreshments, and smiled and said, "Look at it, is the Sanfen Sword Hall in Changling considered the top-notch sword courtyard?"

"This..." The rich man was immediately embarrassed.

"Of course it can't be counted." Yu Xiuchun looked at his embarrassed expression and couldn't help laughing, saying, "If you talk about the number of sword masters above the fifth realm, the Sanfen Sword Hall, Lingxu Sword Gate, Xinjian Sect and other sects are simply incomparable. If you talk about the collection of books, if you talk about the heritage, it is even impossible to compare with Tianyi Pavilion, Xishan Sword Sect, and even the Qingteng Sword Academy. The Sanfen Sword Hall has only been in Changling for more than fifty years. According to people, the Sanfen Sword Hall is at most a second-rate level, but compared with these sects, the Sanfen Sword Hall was ordered by the emperor, and even the current emperor has practiced in the Sanfen Sword Hall for more than a few years. There are countless royal relatives who have been practicing in the Sanfen Sword Hall for more than a few years. How many practitioners are there in Changling? The ordinary people in the market naturally account for the majority, and they can't tell which sword courtyard is stronger. For them, the Sanfen Sword Hall is the orthodox sword courtyard, and naturally the first-class sword courtyard in Changling."

The rich man frowned and said, "These people in Nabashan Sword Field are just sensational and seeking fame!"

"This young man is smart, and he is not thinking about what you think." Yu Xiuchun shook his head, "What they were thinking is that if I lose, I will naturally lose face of many people. The disciples who went out from me before will naturally be resentful, especially after knowing that I was defeated by illness... I am afraid that countless people will not be able to help but want to teach him a lesson. He will not lack opponents from Bijian. Many people can't stop him even if they want to stop him from doing this in Changling."

The rich man looked at him in confusion and said, "So, you really have to go out to fight with illness, and you have made plans to lose to Wang Jingmeng."

“That’s right.”

Yu Xiuchun smiled and said, "That's why I said they happened to play a wonderful chess move."

The rich man smiled bitterly, but he still didn't understand.

"My identity is special in the Three-Pin Sword Hall, and my identity is naturally special. After the young people from Bashan Sword Field went to Changling to say that, different people naturally had different opinions. At this time, my attitude is very important."

Yu Xiuchun looked at the bamboo forest outside and said with satisfaction: "If I act like I can't help but go there happily, it will make people feel that we agree with this statement and this kind of sword comparison. If I insist on not accepting it and scolded it hard, it is absurd and nonsense. The sword skills of practitioners are not a trick in the market. If they want to fight behind closed doors and fight in the sword hall, then the young man in Bashan Sword Field will be blocked in this way in Changling. "

"I see."

The rich man finally reacted a little and said, "You want to help him."

"It's better to say that he was outstanding in his talent and convinced me."

Yu Xiuchun looked at some quiet courtyards outside the bamboo forest and sighed: "In the past thirty years, many sword masters in the Sanfen Sword Hall have not cared about their own honor and disgrace, and have taught them all their gains. Some of them are even stingy with some of their own life-saving sword moves. In the past thirty years, many outstanding students have gone out of here, and most of their achievements have surpassed the teachers here. However, in the past thirty years, we have still retreated step by step in the battle with Zhao and Wei, and even ceded the prefectures and counties... However, looking at the style of many sword practitioners in Changling, the practice gains seem to have become in their hearts, but have only become a helper in their careers and capital for them to show off. Most of them seem to have forgotten the swords hanging on their waists and the swords they carry on their backs, which were originally used for what they were doing."

"My abilities are insufficient. Even if I have the will, I can't wake them up. I am really happy that someone like Wang Jingmeng said such words and did such things."

Yu Xiuchun smiled and said, "I look forward to people like him being able to wake up all these people, so that those people can understand that the sword in their hands is fate, glory, a weapon to defend their country, not accessories, not a decoration for measuring official positions in the court, and not a capital to win the favor of some big shots."

The rich man immediately felt awe-inspiring, but he had no wine in his hand, otherwise he would have had a drink.

In a blink of an eye, he felt a little ashamed and said, "I have been doing business since I was a child and only think about money and interests. I have a narrow vision. I think of these people from Bashan Sword Field as vulgar as me."

"How many military horses have you provided to the border army over the years?"

Yu Xiuchun looked at him and said seriously: "If you are a vulgar person, then many powerful people in Changling can't be said."

"Insignificant, insignificant."
