Wear It with Space - Chapter 37
The water of Lingxiufeng’s stream was extremely clear. Shen Ling squatted on a rock beside the stream and saw the reflection in the water as soon as he leaned over. It was a beautiful and vulgar girl, only thirteen or four years old, wearing a simple hair bun, only a white jade begonia bead flower on her head, and her light blue clothes, quite a kind of clear water. Furong’s chu Chu Jiao attitude.
Seeing this, Shen Ling had a feeling of returning to the right track. Finally no longer need to be a man. Although in later life, Shen Ling would complain about the difficulty of being a woman, and reborn as a man in the next life. But when she really became a man, Shen Ling realized that being a man is so tired! Not only has to provoke the burden of supporting the family, but also can’t be with the children often, which is not much easier than being a woman.
When Shen Ling was taking a selfie by the water and admiring his current appearance, the system 25 sounded.
“Whether to accept the current task, the task content is to defeat the world’s well-known martial arts master, the task time is fifty years.”
Shen Ling was a little confused, “If you defeat a master of martial arts, then how many of them must be defeated to complete the task?”
System 25: “You can get 30 points for defeating a martial arts master. As for how many to defeat, it’s all up to the host.”
Well, Shen Ling admitted that this is the most free task the system has given her so far, so she quickly said: “I accept this task.”
Shen Ling stood up in front of the stream and passed through the memories of this young girl named Ding Zhi. The Ding Zhi she is wearing now is an ordinary disciple of Lingyue Palace. Lingyue Palace is the most mysterious sect of martial arts, and is famous for its hidden weapon called Bingpaku Needle. In addition to Bingpo Needle, Lingyue Palace also has two martial arts that are unparalleled in the world, one is Lingyue sword technique, and the other is Hanyue technique.
Ding Zhi started at the age of seven, and now he has studied for six or seven years, but he has just finished learning the Lingyue sword technique, but the Hanyue technique has never been touched. The reason is simple. Ding Zhi is mediocre, and he is reluctant to endure hardships. So far, he has only been an outside disciple. If you want to practice the Hanyue technique, you must first become an inner disciple of Lingyue Palace.
It just so happens that today is when the elder Jingchen in the palace came to check their homework for these outer disciples, as long as they can be favored by elder Jingchen, they may become inner disciples. Therefore, these outside disciples all wanted to perform well in front of Elder Jingchen. It happened to be Ding Zhi’s turn to fetch water by the stream today. She was depressed and couldn’t practice well before Elder Jingchen came, so she was passed over by Shen Ling.
Shen Ling carried two wooden buckets full of water and walked eastward along the winding stream. Since this body has been practicing martial arts since childhood, it has also practiced Lingyue Palace’s unique light skills. Even with two wooden buckets filled with water, Shen Ling did not feel strenuous.
It’s just that when she was walking, she began to correct her pace and posture little by little. In the last world, she had been a man for so long and served as a county magistrate for several years. She had to walk a lot more calmly, which was not suitable for her current status. Also, the prestige she cultivated when she was a county magistrate is not suitable for her current status.
Shen Ling corrected this as he walked, and it took almost two quarters of an hour to reach a valley full of flowers. People in Lingyue Palace call this valley the Baihua Valley because it is full of flowers throughout the year. It is a place where disciples of the outer sect in the palace practice swordsmanship on a daily basis.
As soon as Shen Ling arrived in the valley, the people practicing swordsmanship in the valley stopped, and one after another took out the bamboo tubes they carried over to fill the water.
The Lingxiu Peak where Lingyue Palace is located is similar to the Lingnan in Shen Ling’s impression. The temperature is much higher than that of the north where he had been before. This time is summer, and it is the hottest time of the year. These outer disciples in the valley practiced. After a while, I sweated a lot, and saw Shen Ling approaching with a bucket, and immediately surrounded him.
These disciples are all about the same age as Ding Zhi, and they are all young girls who are just about Fanghua. This is also a peculiar feature of Lingyue Palace, which only accepts female disciples and never accepts male disciples.
However, Ding Zhi and the others were mostly selected by the elders from nearby villages or villages. At that time, they gave their parents ten taels of silver. They also stated that if they did not become inner disciples before the age of fifteen, the palace The elders here will send them back to their original homes. Therefore, there are no farmers in this neighborhood who are unwilling to send their daughters here.
Even Ding Zhi and the others are very satisfied with their current lives. Although they are still outer disciples, they don’t even know the exact location of Lingyue Palace, so they can only live in Lingcao Valley near Baihua Valley. But this did not affect their imagination of Lingyue Palace as a very beautiful place.
Therefore, after the dozen or so girls finished drinking the water, they began to practice swordsmanship again. Only when they became inner disciples, could they enter the Lingyue Palace and practice the cold moon exercises.
Shen Ling had already drunk full of water by the stream. When everyone gathered around the bucket to fetch water, she had chosen a relatively remote location to practice her swordsmanship seriously.
There are thirty-six styles of Lingyue swordsmanship, each of which has complicated changes. It takes a month for outer disciples to learn one of them, but it takes two months to master it.
Ding Zhi has been practicing for these seven or eight years, but he has just been able to use this set of Lingyue swordsmanship from start to finish. Shen Ling’s experience since the last life may have something to do with her studying hard every day, and her memory now is better than Zheng Feng.
Although this set of swordsmanship is complicated, she can remember every change clearly, but within half an hour, she has made her very proficient.
Before Elder Jingchen came, Shen Ling had practiced the whole set of swordsmanship twice, and had already memorized every style of swordsmanship by heart.
When she took a break and was about to practice the third time, Elder Jingchen came.
Elder Jingchen looked like thirty, with a quaint bun that Shen Ling had never seen before, wearing a goose-yellow shirt, and his skin was white as snow. At first glance, she didn’t look like a martial elder, but rather like a lady in a deep house.
She stood there quietly and glanced at everyone. A dozen outer disciples including Shen Ling unconsciously bowed their heads slightly and shouted in unison: “See Elder Jingchen.”
Elder Jingchen nodded slightly and said in a soft tone: “You have practiced Lingyue swordsmanship for seven years, and the palace lord and the elders in the palace feel that it is time to choose the best of you to enter the inner gate. When she said that, she took a look at everyone, and saw everyone’s expression upon hearing these words. Fang continued, “Next, let me see how well your swordsmanship is practiced.”
She pointed at the two outer disciples casually, said a certain style of Lingyue swordsmanship, asked them to use this style in front of her, carefully looked at their movements, and then called them out again.
Next, Shen Ling and another outer disciple were also called, and then they performed Lingyue’s seventh style of swordsmanship together.
Elder Jingchen still didn’t say anything when she saw it, and her expression didn’t fluctuate as before, and she couldn’t see what she was thinking in her heart.
After more than a dozen outer disciples were called out to perform a sword gesture, Elder Jingchen Fang nodded with a smile: “Your sword skills are all well practiced. I will come here next month. I will come from you. Two people with the best sword skills were selected and sent to the palace.”
Elder Jingchen left after leaving this sentence. A dozen outside disciples were there chatting to discuss who might be selected, but Shen Lingli was thoughtful in the local area.
When Elder Jingchen checked their swordsmanship, Shen Ling had carefully paid attention to her look. Although on the surface, she treats everyone the same, and there is neither admiration nor disappointment on her face.
However, relying on Shen Ling’s meticulous observation, she found that Elder Jingchen showed some interest in the three of them. When these three people used the sword, her eyes were particularly focused, and a glimmer of brilliance flashed in her eyes.
Even Shen Ling had to admit that those three people were indeed the most diligent and talented three of them among a dozen of them. Presumably this is the main reason why Elder Jingchen will come next month. She really can’t make a choice from these three, so she has to wait another month to see.
It seems that this opportunity this year is impossible. Shen Ling couldn’t help sighing, and had to wait for next year’s opportunity. Elder Jingchen only chooses two of them every year. If she is not selected next year, she will be sent home.
In that way, I’m afraid she will not be able to complete the tasks given by the system. Although points will not be deducted for mission failures, the space will be upgraded to less than 5 levels due to insufficient points.
System 25, when she upgraded her space to level 4 in her last world exam, told her that every fifth level of the space would add a new function. When the space is upgraded to level 5, the extra function is that the time flow rate of the space can be adjusted according to the wishes of the host.
As long as the host has enough points, the time flow rate of the space can be adjusted at will. The faster the flow of time in space, the faster the crops on the black soil and the fish, shrimps, crabs and shellfish in the ponds will grow. Similarly, if you stay inside for three days, the outside world may be less than a day.
For this function of extra space, Shen Ling gritted his teeth and decided to be selected by Elder Jingchen to become an inner disciple next year, no matter what.
Only by becoming an inner disciple can she learn the Hanyue exercises. According to Shen Ling’s speculation, the Hanyue technique is mostly a kind of internal strength that cooperates with Lingyue’s sword technique, and the cooperation of internal strength must be indispensable for Lingyue’s sword technique to exert its true power. Otherwise, even if Ling Yue learned the sword technique well and didn’t have the corresponding internal strength, I was afraid that any disciple of the martial arts in the rivers and lakes could defeat her, let alone defeat those martial arts masters.
