Chapter 25 The Passing Years

PS: I couldn't write the last chapter until the end, and then I watched "Angelbeats", and then, I really couldn't write it.

Bodhi is not a tree, and the mirror is not a platform. There is nothing in the world, where is the dust. How to say it, but there are a few people who know what they can really do, Shi Qingyi said that she didn't care, but the fierce struggle in her heart was only clear to herself, in fact, since she met the old lady, she fell back into an inexplicable love, which also made her appear to be different from her usual behavior and actions.

The sound of fierce fighting and shouting sounded in the mountains and forests, Xiao San held a thick wooden stick in his hand, and barely supported himself left and right under the attack of Shi Qingyi's small wooden stick, he could have fought with Shi Qingyi with his bare hands, but immediately, Shi Qingyi began to use the wooden stick as a weapon, with the wooden stick in his hand, Shi Qingyi's terrifying swordsmanship began to show, and Xiao San, who was killed under a few moves, was tired of coping, Xiao San's original martial arts also had the tricks to use weapons, but compared with Shi Qingyi's specialized swordsmanship, it was not a heavyweight at all, therefore, The training in the woods immediately returned to the state in which Xiao San was completely beaten in the first few days.

Although after a few days of fighting, Xiao San's stick skills have slowly grown, and he will no longer be at the point of not fighting back at all as at the beginning, but Shi Qingyi's swordsmanship is by no means comparable to her ordinary boxing skills. However, in the fight, the next three will also show a brave side, from time to time smashing at the same time with a stick against the enemy, empty-handed stretched out to counter Shi Qingyi's stormy wooden stick, the kung fu he learned was originally the kung fu in the battle array, in this kind of hand-to-hand combat can rely on the strength of the flesh alone into the white blade, in contrast, Shi Qingyi has to mobilize the true qi and then seal, although the power is stronger, the reaction speed is much slower, and when fighting for life and death, A split second difference can make the difference between life and death on both sides. And Shi Qingyi completely gave up the use of empty-handed kung fu, only with the wooden stick in his hand, turned into a shadow in the sky, from time to time, the wooden stick fell into the left hand, but Shi Qingyi's left hand sword, the accuracy decreased slightly, but the speed was three points faster, and the sword momentum was weird, often every time he changed the move, it was to immediately break through the defense of Xiao San, if it wasn't for the very little true qi attached to the wooden stick, it only made the place where it was hit feel pain, the battle would have been over a long time ago, but even so, Xiao San was not comfortable, After being hit by the wooden stick in Shi Qingyi's hand for a long time, there was no place in his body that did not hurt, but the stubborn young man did not say a word, just waved the wooden stick in his hand and insisted on resisting, until his body was exhausted, and he really couldn't stand, and when the wooden stick hit his body again, he fell down with difficulty and couldn't stand up again.

"That's all for today, you're already good." Shi Qingyi stopped her hand and said, then, she picked up the bow and arrow and walked towards the depths of the forest, to hunt the prey for cooking, and soon, she hunted three pheasants, Shi Qingyi burned a fire, went directly to the fur, threw away the internal organs, and put it in the fire to barbecue, Xiao San rested for a while, and wanted to come over to help, but was rejected by Shi Qingyi: "I'll come today, tomorrow, you won't be able to eat anymore." Little Sanyi was stunned: "Sister, are you leaving?" Shi Qingyi nodded, "Yes, I'm leaving, I can't teach you to practice martial arts in the future, you have to be diligent yourself, and you can't waste it." She said. Xiao San looked at her, although he could vaguely realize that the separation was getting closer and closer, but he still didn't want to believe that this would be the last time. "It's too sudden, big sister." "I don't even know what to do," he said. "Then treat it as a dream!" Shi Qingyi said, "Life is like a dream, many things, you don't have to care too much, you should learn to accept others, instead of shrinking into the shell you prepared for yourself." "This teenager, because of his low self-esteem and the neglect of his relatives, his personality has become extreme, so he will vent his grievances alone in the woods, Shi Qingyi understands, because in the distant modern times, many people have had the same experience as teenagers. Perhaps, this is also the reason why she will guide him now.

Shi Qingyi really wanted to make the separation not look so sad, but Xiao San's dejected appearance really made the atmosphere unravelable, even Shi Qingyi's carefully made game could not arouse his interest, so it was like chewing wax and stuffed it in, Shi Qingyi looked at him helplessly, until the three pheasants were gone. "Eldest sister, can't we really know each other's identities" plucked up her courage, Xiao San said, "No," Shi Qingyi said: "I am very happy to get along these days, because when I am with you, it is very clean, and I am afraid that after knowing your life experience, I will take advantage of you." Then she stood up, "I hate myself like that." Xiao San was silent: "Won't we be able to meet in the future?" "I think so, because I won't be in front of people with this face, and even if we do, I won't recognize each other, and if you're on the opposite side of me, I'll kill you without mercy." Shi Qingyi continued: "Because at that time, I had a mission that had to be completed. "If it's the eldest sister, I won't resist." Xiao San said. Shi Qingyi shook his head when he heard this: "Fool, you won't recognize me at that time." "Shi Qingyi's disguise technique is indeed infinitely close to reality.

"Finally, let me give you some guidance on your martial arts, I have nothing to teach in boxing, and your weapons have not yet been finalized, I have sorted out some weapons in the past few days, so I will give them to you." Shi Qingyi said this, took out the notes that had been prepared a long time ago, and put them in Xiao San's hand, "That's it, I will always remember you, my lovely brother." Shi Qingyi said to Xiao San. Xiao San looked at the eldest sister in front of him hard, wanting to keep her in his heart forever, "Don't leave it at that." Otherwise, it will only increase the sadness" Shi Qingyi showed a gentle smile at Xiao San, then turned around and left firmly.

Shi Qingyi walked through the forest, and the position of the junior behind her was getting farther and farther away, just like before, Shi Qingyi once again left behind the companion who could become and chose to go alone, maybe in her heart, there has never been a person who can be a companion, "This is good, it will not drag others down and will not be dragged by others." This is the essence of Shi Qingyi, she will always be alone. Painting on her face again, applying medicinal powder, when she came to Luoyang City, Shi Qingyi had already changed back to the appearance of the righteous daughter of the eldest grandson's family, took back a qiē tool, she smiled relaxedly, and then entered the city gate...... The face that was used in front of Mrs. Pei and Xiao San will never appear in the world.

The name on the wedding card is Changsun Jing, this is when she first came to Luoyang, the eldest grandson's wife Gao Shuyun got the name for her, I didn't expect that now if she marries in the name of the eldest grandson's daughter, she will also use this name, Shi Qingyi looked at the two names on the wedding card: Changsun Jing, Li Shimin, laugh, history may not change, but history books can be tampered with at will, maybe Li Shimin is not the suave man in the film and television drama at all, the lucky A+ of the young man's ambition, not to mention anything else, his wife alone is not satisfactory, It would be very unfortunate for him to be able to do so. There are still three days left for the divorce celebration, whether it is the Li family or the eldest grandson Wuji, they are busy, posting red symbolizing festivity, but this has almost nothing to do with Shi Qingyi, she still lives in the small courtyard at the back of this house, practicing swords, cultivating the mind, and adding reading and writing, and she has been away from the valley for almost two years, and she has been a little deserted with these things, just like that, until the day of the wedding date.

Although after the turmoil at the end of the Han Dynasty, the turbulent years such as the Wuhu Rebellion, the etiquette of the Han nation has been handed down, and such as the Li family, various etiquette is indispensable, Shi Qingyi was tossed by various etiquette for a day, and was finally sent to the new house, you can rest for a while, take off the hijab on the head, Shi Qingyi looked at the layout of the room, as far as the eye can see, it is dazzling red, the happy word on the window, the curtain on the bed, the bedding, the red candle burning on the table, made Shi Qingyi feel that a qiē was so unreal: Is this a marriage, every girl will yearn for the moment, what is going on with him now. Although she had already made up her mind, the qiē arranged in her eyes now began to make her heart feel a little trance again.

Li Shimin was helped into the new house, although he tried his best to resist the arranged marriage set by the elders (I remembered Lu Xun when I wrote this sentence) but in the face of his grandmother who has absolute authority in the family, his efforts are all powerless, so in this day when he is the protagonist today, he drunk himself and wanted to use wine to kill his sorrows, Li Shimin's brothers all rushed to say hello to him, and at the same time desperately poured wine to Li Shimin, Li Shimin drank very well, but he was soon drunk unconscious, When Mrs. Dou saw that it was not good, she immediately asked the servant to pull Li Shimin out of the banquet and send him to the new house, Li Shimin staggered in front of Shi Qingyi, looking at Shi Qingyi's eyes were full of anger.

"You slut, if you hadn't deliberately courted grandma, how could grandma have to let me marry you. Don't get complacent too soon, I won't let you get better. Li Shimin shouted loudly at Shi Qingyi, and a strong smell of wine rushed straight in, making Shi Qingyi frown, but she didn't have any angry expression, because it was not worth being angry at a drunkard. You're drunk, now it's better to rest. Shi Qingyi said, her tone was very calm, and her expression did not change because of what Li Shimin said. And Li Shimin laughed out loud after hearing what she said.

Why do men like to drink, because wine can bring courage, after getting themselves drunk, many people have the courage that they don't have when they are sober, to do what they dare not do, Li Shimin is the same, when he is sober, he will never be rough with a woman, even if that woman is his enemy, but now, seeing Shi Qingyi in a happy dress, he wants to humiliate her fiercely, without this woman, he will not be humiliated like this. "Rest, yes, as a wife, shouldn't you fulfill your obligations as a wife?" As he spoke, he pounced on Shi Qingyi.

Shi Qingyi sat at the head of the bed, the two fingers of his right hand stretched out, and when Li Shimin was about to pounce on her, he accurately pointed at his shoulder and neck, Li Shimin only felt that his whole body was instantly paralyzed, and strong fatigue surged in, he fell down and fell asleep. Shi Qingyi looked at Li Shimin who fell to the ground, sighed softly, and then left him alone, and let the other party lie on the ground, it has not yet reached late autumn, the weather is hot these days, and there is no problem with letting Li Shimin sleep on the ground for a night. Now that the groom has arrived, the next thing left is to sleep, Shi Qingyi lay on the big red brocade quilt embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water, and slowly fell asleep.

The second day of the wedding can not be idle, because this day is the day to know most of the husband's family, in view of the good work and rest rules, Shi Qingyi got up very early, and saw Li Shimin on the ground grinning at her, she smiled apologetically: No way, for insurance, Li Shimin's four acupoints were sealed before going to bed, so that even if Li Shimin woke up, he couldn't move a bit, Shi Qingyi slapped the acupoints on Li Shimin's body, but it was obvious that because of sleeping on the ground for a night, and the acupoints were blocked by blood circulation, Half of Li Shimin's body was numb, so he could only lie on the bed, waiting for the feeling of paralysis to disappear in saying, Shi Qingyi had already begun to dress, dressing himself up as the image of a newlywed woman, this qiē was carried out in front of Li Shimin, and therefore, when Shi Qingyi quickly made a young woman dressed up and appeared in front of Li Shimin, Li Shimin was still surprised in his heart, although he was actually very disgusted with this woman in his heart. So in the morning, the newlyweds began to formally meet the elders, Dugu smiled and drank the tea offered by Shi Qingyi, and then began to say something like wanting the two to be harmonious. Shi Qingyi looked at the serious expression on the old lady's face, and couldn't figure out where she got so much confidence, the conditions they reached at the beginning were to say that good was tangible and not real! Then Li Yuan, Dou's, Li Yuan still looked like a clay god, drank tea, that is, a few polite words, but Dou's was very enthusiastic, took Shi Qingyi's hand and asked long and short questions, Shi Qingyi understood in his heart that although this lady does not have a pair of magic eyes that see through the world like the old lady, but she is well-informed, and she is also the old lady's capable daughter-in-law, the old lady must have told her true identity to Mrs. Dou, the two families have a relationship, no wonder Dou suddenly became so enthusiastic. In the end, Dou actually took off the turquoise bracelet on his right hand and brought it to Shi Qingyi himself, Shi Qingyi noticed that when she accepted the bracelet, the eyes of the surrounding aunts and aunts brought the look of jealousy. This is not an ordinary product, there is a chance to ask about its origin, Shi Qingyi said secretly.

Then there are the next level of elders, which are some of Li Shimin's uncles and uncles, Shi Qingyi also saw them one by one according to the number of etiquette, and then Li Shimin's peers, headed by Li Shimin's brother, Li Jiancheng.

Li Jiancheng has already been out of office, but his official position is not big, and he does not serve in Luoyang City, so he does not live in the house, but today is his younger brother's big day, Li Jiancheng still took a vacation to meet his younger siblings in the future. Shi Qingyi looked left and right, and couldn't see anything dirty between their brothers, it could be seen that Li Jiancheng loved his younger brothers and sisters very much, and he really couldn't imagine that in the next ten years, they would kill each other, adding a heavy stroke to the later history books.

Li Shimin had a stinky face from the beginning, the Li family and their own family understood what was going on, and no one paid attention to it, Shi Qingyi then greeted Li Xuanba, this loyal and honest child was a little restrained, Li Xiuning was a lively girl, but unfortunately she didn't pay much attention to Shi Qingyi's overtures, Shi Qingyi guessed that she should be on Li Shimin's side, so she didn't pay attention.

A handsome young man yawned and walked into the front hall through the back door, and was seen by Li Yuan, who stopped him unhappily: "Sanhu, why did you get up so late, why don't you come over and see your future second sister-in-law soon." "Oh!" The little boy came over listlessly, and didn't look at Shi Qingyi, "Second sister-in-law is good." The casual tone, as well as the slightly cold temperament, immediately ruined the original festive atmosphere and made many people frown. Shi Qingyi was dumbfounded, because she didn't expect that she would actually meet Xiao San here, let alone that Xiao San was Li Yuanji, the fierce and ugly demon king in the historical records who didn't even dare to ask for his mother. It's true, the history of the pit daddy. Shi Qingyi recognized the young man, but the young man did not recognize Shi Qingyi, the reason is very simple, Shi Qingyi's current face is the one she has used the longest, and it has never been revealed in front of the young man. Shi Qingyi was also a little puzzled, obviously he still had some similarities with Li Shimin, why didn't he think about it, thinking of the difference in temperament between the two people, Shi Qingyi understood why he ignored it. Because the temperament of the two people is completely different, Li Shimin is confident and positive, his temperament is full of vigor and enthusiasm, and Li Yuanji has low self-esteem and a somewhat distorted personality, so his temperament is dark, if it is not for two people appearing in the same place at the same time, there is really no one who can connect them with a mother and compatriots.

Although his mind was spinning, Shi Qingyi's face was silent, and the slightest hesitation was also regarded as a surprise for Li Yuanji's arrogant attitude, after saying what he wanted to say, Li Yuanji did not stay, continued his lazy attitude and pace, and gradually left the hall, as for the reaction of the people in the hall, he didn't care about it. The weapon use method sent by the eldest sister has been seen by myself, and it is indeed very exquisite, since this is the case, it is better to quickly find the weapon that best fits you, and then specialize in the use of this weapon, after all, there is a weapon in hand, and the combat effectiveness of the individual will rise rapidly. Thinking like this, Li Yuanji walked straight out of the house and walked towards the place where he had been practicing.

Although after such an episode as Li Yuanji, on the whole, today's family banquet is still very harmonious, Shi Qingyi has nothing to be rude, although Li Shimin is awkward, but in front of the strict grandmother, he has to obediently obey his orders, and when everyone disperses in the afternoon, Li Shimin has no scruples, and he doesn't even say hello to Shi Qingyi, and leaves directly, Old Mrs. Dugu looked at Shi Qingyi apologetically, Dou's face was also very bad, as if Shi Qingyi had suffered a great grievance, Shi Qingyi didn't feel anything, in fact, if Li Shimin really obeyed his parents' orders and was willing to be a filial son who was obedient, she would have a headache, and now it is just right. Therefore, she instead dissuaded the two ladies from losing their temper over these. On the contrary, the two ladies became more and more interested in Shi Qingyi.

In this way, Shi Qingyi was busy for most of the day, and finally could go back to his new house to rest, the new house was empty, and Li Shimin was not there, Shi Qingyi thought that he would never come back, after all, for such a self-respecting guy, it was a humiliation to be knocked over and lie on the ground all night. Since Li Shimin has no way to save his self-esteem, he can only be out of sight and hide far away, but Shi Qingyi is cheaper.

Shi Qingyi looked at the table, in addition to the burned red candle, there was also a silver mirror, which was clearly reflected, and he was now dressed as a lady, and the bun on his head that belonged to the symbol of a young woman. Shi Qingyi's heart had that unreal feeling again, she is now married, whether the world is changing too fast, or she is reacting too slowly, so that she doesn't have enough time to think, maybe as the old lady Dugu said, the world is pushing people forward, in contrast, the decision of personal will is secondary.

Anyway, let's take one step at a time, after all, fate is always full of accidents, such as the fact that Xiao San is Li Yuanji. The future is still long.
