"Got it! Got it!"

A young girl stood by the river, clapping her hands and applauding, with a look of excitement. There were seven or eight teenagers in the river she faced, some seventeen, eighteen, or nineteen, some thirteen or fourteen. They were playing shirtless in the river, and one of them, a boy of about eighteen years old, was holding a big white fish in his hands and smiling at the girl.

The girl was dressed in a gray short dress, with a wooden hairpin pinned to her head, long hair reaching her waist, and a pair of eyes on her melon seed face were watery, and she smiled and showed her neat white teeth, and there was a cute little tiger tooth on each side. Although the girl is dressed roughly, she still can't hide her snow-white skin and brilliant face, and at a glance, she is a little beauty who is alive and well.

The young man with the big fish in his hands said to the girl on the riverbank, "I will throw the fish to you, and you will catch it." ”

The girl said, "I know, Brother Li Yun, throw it to me." ”

"Then you have to catch it steadily!" said the young man named Li Yun, and threw it to the riverbank, and the girl reached out to take it. I don't know that the boy just pretended to throw it, and the fish was still in the boy's hands. The girl Bai was nervous, looked at the young man angrily and said, "You, you trick me!"

"Hahahaha!" the seven or eight teenagers in the river laughed.

The girl said again: "Brother Li Yun, give me the fish quickly!" The girl stopped being angry and began to be coquettish.

Li Yun smiled and said, "Sister Moxue, you can ask for fish, but you have to come down and get it yourself!"

The girl named Mo Xue said: "Where am I getting better, give it to me, give it to me!"

Li Yun said again: "Don't give it, unless you come down!"

"That's it, come down. The others followed and coaxed, which also provoked passers-by to stop and look, and an old man smiled and said: "I said Mo Xue, you and Li Yun have also played since childhood, and the relationship is good, we will definitely be together in the future, so what's the harm if you go down?" Mo Xue said to the old man: "Uncle, don't be joking, how can you say this." Mo Xue said that her face was red and white, and several passers-by were laughing.

Mo Xue said to Li Yun again: "Give it to me quickly!"

"Don't give it!"

"To give or not to give?"

"I won't give it!"

Mo Xue blushed and looked at Li Yun angrily.

"Don't give it!" Mo Xue said, picked up a bamboo pole from the side and hit Li Yun, but she didn't really hit Li Yun, but hit the water in the river hard, so that the river became a mess.

"If you don't give it, if you don't give it!" Mo Xue screamed while sipping water.

The teenagers were in a mess, and the young man named Li Yun couldn't hold the fish in his hand, but the big fish ran away, Li Yun shouted: "The fish has run away! Mo Xue was also shocked, and the whole person plopped into the water, drank two sips of water directly, and instantly became a soup chicken. Seeing Mo Xue embarrassed in the water, the teenagers laughed out loud, Mo Xue was angry, holding water in both hands and pouring it on Li Yun, so Mo Xue and the teenagers actually had a water fight, and they were very happy.

Just as they were fighting hotly, a loud shout came from the shore: "If you don't come up yet, what kind of body will you become!" This voice was interrupted, the river was instantly quiet, Mo Xue lowered her head and said nothing, and a dark-skinned middle-aged man on the shore was staring, and there was a middle-aged man with yellowish skin next to him. The yellow-skinned man said: "Oh brother, it's not normal for children to play around, not to mention that my Yun'er and your Xue'er have been playing since childhood, so don't be angry." The dark-skinned man said: "Brother Li, I know you also like my Xue'er, but after all, there is a difference between men and women, a little girl and a group of shirtless men are fighting, what is it like, don't you say?"

"Yes, yes, you're right!" the yellow-skinned man had to smile perfunctorily.

"Not yet!"

Mo Xue came up to the shore, came to the middle-aged man, lowered her head and said, "Dad." ”

"Come back with me!"

Mo Xue was about to leave, and Li Yun in the river said, "Uncle Mo, Sister Xue'er, you guys will wait." As he spoke, he drilled into the water, and after a while he came out of the water with a big fish in his hand, and then went ashore, came to Mo Xue, handed the fish to Mo Xue, and said, "Give it." Mo Xue's face was flushed, she looked at her father, and her father said, "If someone gives it to you, you will take it!" Mo Xue took it with both hands, and then ran away with her head down. Li Yun came to the yellow-skinned man and shouted, "Dad." This person is Li Yun's father, and he said to Mo Xue's father: "Children, don't care, but our family Yun'er likes your family Xue'er very much, isn't it ......" He was about to say more, Mo Xue's father said: "Let's talk about this later." With that, he left.

"This, what's going on?" Li Yun's father stood in place and was stunned, watching Mo Xue's father walk away.

It is said that the girl returned home with the fish, and her father also returned. This girl's name is Mo Xue, and her father is naturally Mo Hai back then. It has been eight years since Mo Xue met the fairy master, and she has grown from an eight-year-old girl to a slim girl now. Her father Mo Hai had read before, so he taught his own daughter to read and write whenever he had time, and later a fortune teller said that although Mo Xue was a daughter, she had a strange eight characters, and she would be able to carry everything in the future. Mo Hai thought about what the fairy master said before, and he was even more convinced, so he asked his daughter to pretend to be a man to go to the school to study, so most of the money he earned a year was taken to Mo Xue to study, and life was very hard, but fortunately, Dr. Zhang was willing to pay to help him, and life was finally passable. So Mo Hai is very grateful to Dr. Zhang's family, after all, how many people in this world will help a person who is not related by blood? But Mo Xue read the book, what "Analects", "Mencius" and other hundred schools of thought, as well as "Book of Songs" and "Chu Ci" It's just that the temperament of the daughter's family is very different from other country women, and her personality is not as restrained as other women, and she doesn't know how to embroider red women, and she doesn't want to learn, and she likes to mix with a group of boys, which can give Mo Hai a headache, so every time Mo Hai sees her messing around with a group of boys, she reprimands her.

Mo Xue changed her clothes, and the sun was about to set at this time, she dissected the fish, chopped off the fish head to make fish head soup, and cut the fish body into pieces and fried it. When it gets dark, the table is set up with rice and fish head soup, as well as fried fish pieces, and a bowl of green vegetables, and dinner is ready.

"Dad, it's time to eat!" Mo Xue shouted, Mo Hai in the yard was chopping wood, he answered, "It's here!"

Mo Hai came in and sat down, looked at the fish head soup, scooped a few spoonfuls and tasted it, and said with a smile: "Xue'er's craftsmanship is okay." Mo Xue looked at Mo Hai and said with a smile, "Of course." Mo Hai said: "You are just like a boy, can you be more restrained, read the book in vain?" Mo Xue heard this, puffed out her cheeks, Mo Hai said again: "Don't be angry, what I said is right, how can a girl's family be like this?" Mo Xue retorted: "But there is no gentleman around me, why should I be a lady, besides, you look at the sisters nearby, which one is a lady, and speak rudely!" Mo Hai said: " People haven't read books, haven't you read books? If you read books, it's like that, so isn't it in vain?"

Mo Xue didn't fight with him, she was bored and cooked, and Mo Hai didn't say anything. After eating, Mo Hai sat at the door alone, Mo Xue cleaned up inside and out, and saw Mo Hai sitting on the big threshold, she also came over to sit next to him, following his example, dragging her chin with her hands.

Mo Hai turned his head and asked, "What's wrong?" Mo Xue sighed and didn't speak, Mo Hai asked again: "What's the matter, little girl? My eldest lady?" Mo Xue let out a long sigh again, Mo Hai raised her tone this time, and asked, "Hey, young man, what are you sighing for?"

"You don't understand a girl's mind, let alone a girl who has read a book!"

"Ouch, you're actually a cultural person in front of me? ”

"Hmph!" Mo Xue turned her head away.

"Okay, okay, what are you angry with me, you little girl, I'm also for your good, if you get married in the future, you won't be told about you, right?"

"I'm not going to get married!"

"Aren't you on good terms with Li Yun?"

"Brother Li Yun is good, but he can't read big words, Dad, you say, can I get along with him?"

"And what do you like, daddy go tell you?"

"I said I wouldn't marry, at least not now!"

"You're sixteen, don't worry, you see that many girls are almost married to you, and they have children. Besides, I'm tired of my father, there are a lot of people who ask for relatives, and I can meet several people in the town when I go to town, and they all say that there is a beautiful girl in Lijia Village, and she has also read books, and she is willing to get married or something, they are all here, I am annoyed, you just find one as soon as possible, so as not to bother me!"

"If I don't marry, I won't, I won't!"

"You, you girl, why are you so stubborn. ”

In fact, when Mo Xue heard that she was as beautiful as a flower, she was also comfortable, but she was disgusted when she heard about getting married, so as soon as Mo Hai opened her mouth, she was very resistant, but when a man is married, a woman should be married, and it is impossible not to marry for the rest of her life, but it is precisely because of this that Mo Hai has the opportunity to tell her more important things.

Mo Hai said again: "Since you don't want to, then you have to do something, do you remember the immortal master eight years ago?"

As soon as Mo Xue heard the words "Immortal Master", her eyes immediately lit up, and she hurriedly asked: "Immortal Master, of course I remember, did he come to our house again?"

"Nope. ”

"Oh!" Mo Xue immediately lost her enthusiasm.

"However, the fairy master told me some things back then, and it was related to you. ”

"Something to do with me?" Mo Xue was interested again.

Mo Hai coughed deliberately twice, and then ignored her, Mo Xue immediately shook him and said, "Tell me, what did the fairy master say?"

Mo Hai's eyes deliberately looked at it, and said, "Who was there just now saying that you won't marry or not marry?

"Okay, okay, it's my daughter's fault, my daughter will kowtow to you to make amends. Saying that, he really got up and stood in front of Mo Hai, knelt down and kowtowed.

"Okay, okay, don't come to this set. ”

Mo Xue sat back beside Mo Hai and looked at Mo Hai with a smile.

Mo Hai then said: "Back then, the immortal master was kind to us, and when he left, he told me that he was from Jishi Mountain, and he was the immortal of Jishi Mountain, right?"

Mo Xue nodded and said: "Yes, Jishi Mountain, I have read it in the book, according to legend, Jishi Mountain is a sacred mountain on Kunlun Mountain, and there are immortals living on it, and the immortal master will not really come from Jishi Mountain, right?"

"Can this be fake? You should remember that year, Dad, my whole leg was useless, and I couldn't walk, but the fairy master didn't do anything, so he said a word, and I was completely fine, do you think he is really a fairy? Otherwise, my leg won't be better, right?"

Mo Xue nodded and said, "Yes, the Immortal Master is indeed the Immortal Master, but he said that he is from Jishi Mountain, so he must be?"

"He is even willing to save me, why lie to us?"

"Well, I'm overthinking. But Daddy, what's the use of you telling me this?"

Mo Hai slapped his chin and said, "Of course it's useful, it has a lot to do with it!"

"What's the relationship?"

Mo Hai paused, and then said: "Before the Immortal Master left, he told me that you are talented and intelligent, and you are a good material for cultivation, and he wants to wait for you to go to Jishi Mountain to find him when you are sixteen years old, worship him as a teacher, and ask for a path of immortality." ”

"Huh?" Mo Xue looked incredulous, "How is it possible?

"Who lied to you, have you ever seen a father deceive his daughter like this?"

"But this is too outrageous, how can I be favored by the fairy master, besides, Jishi Mountain is so far away, if I walk over, where will I get there? Not to mention that the mountains and rivers are far away, even if I encounter jackals, tigers and leopards and robbers halfway, my little life will be gone." ”

"Yes, I'm also thinking, how can an ordinary person be so powerful, but he said that he will give you a token, and that token can protect you all the way and won't get lost. ”

"No, no, no, I'm a little girl, wherever I can endure this, I will die when I walk. ”

Seeing that she didn't believe it, Mo Hai got up and said, "You wait!" and entered the house, and after a while he came out again, holding a sword in his hand, and then sat down.

"What is this? Why do we still have a sword at home? It's just that the hilt and scabbard in your hand are so black that they don't look good at all. ”

Mo Hai held the sword in both hands and said: "How do I know, when the fairy master gave it to me, it was still golden, it was very beautiful, but then I don't know what's wrong, it turned black, and I have been under your bed, I will take a look at it every few days." ”

"Just under my bed, I don't know!" Mo Xue said stunned.

"It's the fairy master who won't let me tell you, he said that you will tell you when you are sixteen, and I will tell you when you are sixteen this year. ”

Mo Xue finally understood, no wonder her father still wanted her to go to study because she didn't have much spare money, he originally hoped that she would be able to go to Jishi Mountain in the future, so as not to know a word in case she practiced.

"But there is nothing peculiar about this sword, how can it protect me? Even if it could protect me, I wouldn't have been able to go that far. ”

"I don't know about this, but it's strange to say, I once wanted to pull out this sword to see, but no matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't pull it out, and it was the fairy master's request, I didn't dare to mess around, so I kept it still. ”

"Can't pull it out?" Mo Xue looked curious, she reached out and took it and looked at it, the sword was three feet long, and it was black, but as soon as she held it in her hand, she felt a clear stream flowing from the palm of her hand, and she couldn't help but feel refreshed. Mo Xue stood up and said in surprise: "Hey, why do I feel a surge of air in my body as soon as I hold it in my hand, and my spirit is much better, and my whole body is full of strength!" Mo Hai sat down and didn't get up, so he said: "It seems that the fairy master really didn't lie to us, otherwise why didn't I feel anything in my hand, and you just took it?"

Mo Xue walked around the courtyard with a sword and learned to look like a chivalrous man, and then jumped up and down, without any effort. Mo Xue was both excited and happy, then ran to Mo Hai, and said with a smile: "It seems that this sword is really a divine object, a treasure!" Mo Hai said: "Of course, is it possible that I can still help the fairy master deceive you?" Mo Xue went to the courtyard again, she held the sword scabbard in her left hand, held the hilt of the sword in her right hand, and pulled it out hard, but she didn't expect to pull it out, Mo Xue couldn't help but be surprised. At this time, the golden light of the sword body was shining, and Mo Hai was also shocked, and he almost fell backwards from the threshold. He immediately got up and came to Mo Xue's side, and exclaimed, "Girl, you actually pulled it out!"

"I, I don't know, I'm just pulling it out, Dad, you won't lie to me, right?"

"How can I lie to you, or you return to the sheath, I'll try!"

Mo Xue put the sword back in the sheath and handed it to Mo Hai, who also held the scabbard in one hand and the sword in the other. How did he know that he didn't move at all when he tried hard, he tried again, but he still didn't move, Mo Xue saw that he was not pretending, and wondered in his heart: "Why can't I pull it out as soon as I pull it out, and Daddy can't pull it out even with all his efforts?"

Mo Hai finally gave up, gave it to Mo Xue, and said: "Look, I didn't lie to you, I was sweating, you can pull it out casually, it seems that the fairy master is very kind to you, otherwise you won't be the only one who can pull it out." ”

Mo Xue was silent for a while, and then said, "But even if I am allowed to go, I don't want to go." ”

"Why?"

"Because I'm going to be with Daddy!"

"Silly boy, even if you don't go, you won't have to get married sooner or later? Since you don't want to marry, then listen to the words of the fairy master, go to him, and maybe cultivate immortality at that time, wouldn't that be good?

"But I don't. ”

"Then marry early, the fairy master said, he doesn't force you, the choice lies with you. ”

Mo Xue lowered her head, her heart was very entangled, after all, she had read the book of sages and sages, and she understood the truth, so she was in a dilemma, Mo Hai said again: "It's too late, you think about it and make a decision." ”

Mo Hai went back to the house, Mo Xue stood motionless, she was faced with the first choice in her life, and it was such a big choice, she didn't know what to do for a while. She saw a large rock in the courtyard and sat on it with her sword in her hand.

"What to do, hey, it's a headache. ”

On the one hand, there is the way of immortality, Mo Xue knows, after all, she has read mythological classics, not to mention that she really encountered it back then, in other words, everyone wants to live forever, but on the other side is her biological father, Mo Xue only has this one relative, think about how precious it is, so it gives her a headache. But if she doesn't go, her father will definitely force her to get married, and it is likely that she will be mediocre all her life.

After all, Mo Xue has read books, how can she be willing to be ordinary, even if she is a woman, and the so-called way of immortality is very far away from her, not very realistic, but she seems to want to be unwilling to be ordinary, plus the fairy master is a real existence, so she muttered in her heart: "I have read books and know a lot, wouldn't it be in vain if I married someone casually, although Brother Li Yun is good, I don't want to be like this." ”

"Well, that's it, I'm going to find the fairy master, even if it's a thousand difficulties, I have to fight!"

Mo Xue seemed to have made a decision in her heart, she looked at the black sword in her hand, and pulled it out casually, as a result, a golden light flew out, and then actually entered through her eyebrows.

"Oops!" Mo Xue's head hurt, and she almost fell off the stone, but when she came back to her senses but was fine, she touched her forehead, thinking that what had just entered her head. But at this moment, when she looked at the yard surrounded by the fence, she could see it more clearly than before, and even the leaves of the rattan climbing on the fence could be seen clearly, and it was night, and the light in the house was very dim. What was even more surprising was that she could even see the green worms on the leaves, which frightened her.

"Oh my God, this, what's going on!"

Not only that, but her mind was also clearer than before, she got up again and ran in the yard, and she didn't think that after running more than a dozen laps in a row, she didn't feel tired at all.

Mo Xue became more and more surprised, she couldn't imagine that such a thing would happen just after she decided to go, but she didn't know that it was naturally reborn at this time, different from ordinary people.

"Alas, it seems that the fairy master has calculated everything, I just made up my mind that he is like this, I have to go even if I don't go. ”

Although Mo Xue complained a little, she also admired the fairy master even more, and she could count it, and she was full of admiration for him in her heart.

At this time, Mohai came out and asked her, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay!" Mo Xue said with a wicked smile on his face.

"It's not good to see you laughing like this!" Mo Hai was a little incredulous.

"It's all right!"

"Okay, I'll go to sleep. ”

Mo Xue saw that he was going back again, so he pulled out his sword again to take a look, looking at the black scabbard hilt, the sword he pulled out was so smooth and delicate as a mirror, and it could also reflect the figure of a person, plus the sword body exuded a faint golden glow, which leaked like a waterfall. She couldn't help but say: "People say that the gold and jade are defeated outside, but this sword is just the opposite, but the gold and jade are in it, and it is really a sword." ”

Mo Xue tried to swing it, the sword was three feet and three inches long, which was not easy for her, not to mention that she had never practiced martial arts swordsmanship, but at the beginning, the golden light entered her eyebrows, and she didn't have much difficulty swinging it now, but it was handy, which surprised her and waved it again.

"I've heard Mr. talk about a lot of swords before, what is too a sword, and the cadre Mo Evil Sword, but many of these swords are owned by the world, this sword is the fairy master's, it must be more powerful than those swords, but the hilt of this scabbard is too ugly and black. ”

Mo Xue looked at the sword, but her heart was sour, tears flowed out unconsciously, she wiped her tears, and then sat on the stone again, looking at the vast starry sky, in a daze for a long time, and only went back to sleep very late.
