Chapter 14 The Mystery of Bamboo Carving
Green-clothed bamboo sword.
Even the corners of his clothes were not messy. Jiang Chu was slightly lost and immediately returned to calm. His eyes fell to Lin Bin, who was staring at him with a resentful gaze that fell to the poisonous snake, and his mouth raised, revealing a hint of sarcasm.
"Jiang Chu, do you think that I dare not kill you?"
Seeing that the natal star was about to be condensed successfully, he was defeated at the last moment. Even with Lin Bin's concentration, he was furious and stared at Jiang Chu, threatening with a cold voice of words.
"presumptuous!"
Before Jiang Chu could answer, Hailan's voice came over. Before the person arrived, a faint pressure came over, which made the person breathless.
"What do you think this is? How dare you be so arrogant?" Hailan looked at Lin Bin with a cold look, "Do you think you can do whatever you want in my Star Hall because of your father?"
"Master Lan." His eyes suddenly narrowed, and Lin Bin sneered, "I naturally dare not provoke the majesty of the Star Palace, but this person is not a person in the Star Palace, right?"
If it were in the past, Lin Bin would not have contradicted HaiLan, but now he was already crazy. Seeing that HaiLan was inclined toward Jiang Chu, he immediately exploded.
"This is still the Star Palace." Without any intention of getting angry, Hailan glanced at Lin Bin and said lightly.
"...Hey, boy, you'd better hide in the Star Hall all the time." After a moment of silence, Lin Bin didn't dare to be too presumptuous after all. His gloomy eyes swept across Jiang Chu and spoke in a deep voice.
After the words came, Lin Bin left the Star Palace without looking back. He failed to condense his natal star and lost the qualification to continue to accept the star inheritance. It was meaningless to stay here.
"Thank you, Lord Lan." Jiang Chu bowed slightly and said softly, "Jiang Chu said goodbye."
"Wait a minute!"
To Jiang Chu's surprise, before he could turn around, he was stopped by Hailan.
"Jiang Chu, who do you learn from your sword?" Hailan asked slowly at Jiang Chu, his eyes were full of seriousness.
"No one taught me," Jiang Chu whispered for a moment, "I know you may not believe it, but it is true."
"If this were the case, how could you learn how to hold the sword?" Hailan asked without being moved by what Jiang Chu said. This was his biggest question, and he had to ask clearly before he could rest assured.
"Are you talking about this?" After a moment of silence, Jiang Chu stepped on his steps and put on the sword in his hand.
His eyes suddenly froze, and Hailan nodded immediately, "Not bad! Could it be that you want to say that this sword-holding posture was also created by you?"
When things got to this point, Hailan thought he had found the truth, so he calmly looked at Jiang Chu, as if he was looking at a cunning little fox with his legs exposed.
"It doesn't count, but it's not taught by others." Jiang Chu shook his head slowly, and had no intention of debating with Hailan. He took out a piece of bamboo from his arms, held the knife gently, and carved it in front of Hailan.
Jiang Chu's hands were very stable and the knife was dropped very quickly. However, in less than ten minutes, a human-shaped bamboo sculpture appeared in front of Hailan.
After completing the last stairs in his hand, a faint sword intent suddenly emanated from the bamboo sculpture, which was exactly the sword holding posture, without any deviation.
"I have seen a statue, so I have carved bamboo for several years." Jiang Chu said calmly with the bamboo carving to Hailan, as if this was an extremely simple thing in itself.
However, this sentence shocked HaiLan like a major earthquake.
"Diaozhu?" Hailan's voice was a little astringent, and he suddenly recalled the scene of Jiang Chu diggingzhu on the Nebula Ladder. He didn't react at the beginning. Now when he recalled, wasn't it the root cause of Jiang Chu being able to break the starry sea with his sword intent?
Theoretically, if the star sea is blocked, only strong people above the Star Crushing Realm can be opened. However, if you cultivate the sword posture and use the sword intent to break the star sea, you can also say it is a thing of the past.
But...can you understand the posture of holding a sword by just carving bamboo?
The sword-holding posture seems to be just a simple posture, and anyone who sees it twice can still show it, but without the charm and sword intent, it is impossible to call it a sword-holding posture.
Even if the same bamboo carving is used to the master who is best at carving, he will definitely not be able to carve such a sword intent.
It’s like Hai Lan clearly knows the sword holding posture, and can imitate the posture without any mistakes, but it’s not the sword holding posture after all.
For a moment, Hailan was a little lost. He couldn't figure out how true Jiang Chu's words were, and he didn't know how to answer them.
"If it's okay, Jiang Chu will say goodbye."
Hearing this, Hailan finally reacted, "Wait! You can't leave now."
"Huh?" Jiang Chu stopped, his eyes were still calm, and he did not doubt that Hailan was going to be detrimental to him.
"Lin Bin is the youngest son of the lord of Jingzhou. No matter what the cause of this matter is, your chance to destroy his natal star is a great revenge! As long as you leave the Star Palace, you are afraid you will not have the chance to leave Jingzhou." Hailan shook his head and said in a deep voice.
After a silence, Jiang Chu did not answer.
In fact, it is precisely because of this that he is anxious to leave. Lin Bin's arrangement also takes time. Only by leaving Jingzhou as soon as possible can there be a glimmer of hope.
"What, are you planning to die in the world?" As if seeing through Jiang Chu's thoughts, Hailan's mouth showed a hint of sarcasm, "The nine counties of Jingxiang are all under the control of the Lord of Jingzhou. Can you escape?"
"Even if it's a lucky chance to get out of you, have you ever thought of such a life like a rat crossing the street at a young age?"
This is said sharply, but it does prick on Jiang Chu's sore spot. If there is a choice, who would be willing to waste a lot of time on the road to escape?
"If that's not the case, should I beg for mercy?" Jiang Chu raised his eyebrows slightly, and a hint of arrogance that belonged to the boy appeared on his face, and he asked indifferently.
"Have you never thought about hiding and Star Palace?" Looking at Jiang Chu, Hailan showed a smile on his face and asked softly.
“!!!”
This simple sentence was also a great shock to Jiang Chu, and he couldn't even react for a while.
"Aren't I eliminated?" Jiang Chu said slowly with his head slightly.
Hailan had said before that those who failed to pass the Starry Sky Illusion were eliminated. At the beginning, it was a bit coincidental that Jiang Chu did not have much hope for the Starry inheritance, but he just tried hard by chance.
"There will be exceptions in everything." With a smile, Hailan shook his head slightly, "What's more, I'm not taking you into the Star Hall directly, I just give you another chance. Whether you can seize it depends on yourself."
Speaking of this level, Jiang Chu still doesn't understand why. This is simply because Hailan is willing to help him.
"Dare to ask Lord Lan, why did you help me like this?" Although it was a good thing, Jiang Chu couldn't help but ask.
"Although you are not his successor, you are destined to be able to understand the sword holding posture." He shook his head slowly, a look of remembrance appeared in Hailan's eyes, and he sighed softly, "In the past, I had received great kindness from that man, but I still can't repay you. Since you have a destiny with him, why not help you with me?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chu was silent again. After a long time, he finally bowed to Hailan again.
"Thank you for your help, Lord Lan, Jiang Chu will never forget it."
Although he is arrogant, Jiang Chu is not a pedantic person after all. In this case, he would be a fool to refuse Hailan's help.
"Don't rush to thank me for now." He reached out and patted Jiang Chu on the shoulder. Hailan shook his head and said, "The Star Palace has the rules of the Star Palace. It's not that easy to become a disciple of the Star Palace. If you can't meet the requirements, I can't help you."
"Jiang Chu understands!" Jiang Chu had no objection to this. After all, Hailan was just a deacon in the Star Palace and could not control the rules of the Star Palace. Moreover, Jiang Chu also had extremely strong confidence in himself and did not believe it at all. He could not meet the requirements of the Star Palace.
"Follow me. When the Star Inheritance is over, it will be time for you to prove yourself." He nodded, but Hailan did not tell Jiang Chu immediately, turning around and taking Jiang Chu into the inner hall.
A simple courtyard with about seven or eight rooms in the courtyard is decorated cleanly and concisely. Of course, this is not a separate residence for Jiang Chu.
Although Hailan has a good impression of Jiang Chu, Jiang Chu finally failed in the previous trial. He was not considered a person from the Star Palace, so he naturally could not enjoy the treatment of a disciple of the Star Palace.
"Those who have passed the test of the Starry Sky Illusion will be assigned to this courtyard, you can get familiar with it." After a brief explanation, Hailan continued, "You can stay here for a while and try to condense your natal star by yourself. The stronger your strength, the greater the chance of passing the test."
After a little startled, Jiang Chu realized that this was equivalent to giving himself a treatment that was equivalent to passing the second level.
Of course, it is impossible for me to participate in the subsequent Star inheritance.
Failure is failure, and no matter what reason you have, you cannot cover up the fact of failure. Even Hailan cannot give you completely equal treatment, otherwise it will be a break of the rules.
However, for Jiang Chu, these are enough.
"Thank you, Lord Lan."
Without too much instructions, Hailan quickly left the courtyard. The test of the Starry Sky Illusion was not over, and he had to go and guard the others.
As for Jiang Chu, all he can do is this. It only depends on Jiang Chu's own ability.
A sigh in his heart, and Hailan finally temporarily pressed the thoughts on the other side.
"It's really a mysterious little guy. But if you really are the descendant or successor of that person... this test will definitely not be difficult for you... Little guy, don't let me down!"
