Chapter 204: The People of Autumn Water
"The leaves are pale, the white dew is frost, the so-called Yi people, on the water side."
Ghost Che heard the sweet and gentle whispering of little tunes outside, opened his hazy sleepy eyes in the carriage, reached out and touched the position next to the soft couch, and found that the person who should have been by his side was gone, stretched his waist and yawned and shouted: "Fool, fool! ”
Hearing the "clang" of being stepped on on the roof of the carriage, Ghost Che sighed heavily, secretly glad that the decision to let the fellow dart master reinforce the roof of the carriage with two layers of plates a few days ago, otherwise let the two of them step on it like this, and sooner or later it will become a sunroof carriage.
Bai Xiyue followed Yan Ruyu on the roof of the carriage to learn to sing, sang back and forth a few times, and always felt that there was no taste of Yan Ruyu singing out, and the song sounded extremely wonderful in his mouth, there was a feeling of asking for it but not getting it, and it was unrequited.
Hearing Ghost Che shouting at her in the carriage, Bai Xiyue learned to speak like a depressed action, grabbed the edge of the roof, turned over and kicked the window and jumped into the carriage, the two of them left and right, the action was almost at the same time, the difference was that Bai Xiyue jumped directly into Ghost Che's arms, and Ruyu jumped into the middle of the carriage, looked at the two people who couldn't be separated for a while, and whistled.
"Toru, what do you tell me to do?" Bai Xiyue rubbed his head against the ghost and said on his chest.
Ghost Che took out a wooden comb from his wide sleeves, and began to gather Bai Xiyue's green silk that was blown by the cold wind, gently pulled his hair, and instructed with a smile: "Don't play around anymore, when we get to Jinling City, we will go out again, what should we do if we get a cool breeze outside?" ”
Yan Ruyu sat on the side and quietly watched such a picture, and couldn't help but think that once upon a time, he was also treated so gently and attentively, slender and calloused soft wattles and peach wood combs shuttled between his curly hair, because he was afraid of hurting him, so every comb was careful, especially when she heard the sound of his teeth, she seemed to be tied hand and foot for a while, and she didn't dare to do it again anyway.
"Master, I don't hurt, I don't get in the way." He turned his head to look at Gu Qiushui, who was staring at him, and grinned a big smile.
Gu Qiushui pursed her lips and said lightly: "Well, it's strange long hair, curly like a weed." ”
Thinking about it, thinking about Yan Ruyu's hand at this time, he involuntarily touched his broken hair, his hair was slightly curly and the color was like amber, and it really looked a little weedy.
Afraid that the ghosts in front of them would find out what they were different, they coughed lightly and said with a smile: "You are reluctant to let people see Miss Xiyue." ”
Bai Xiyue reached out and touched the two bows that Ghost Che had tied for her, turned around and hugged his neck and dropped a kiss on his face, covering her mouth and laughing: "Brother Yu, let's practice swordsmanship." ”
Ghost Che accepted the kiss just now, put the wooden comb into the wide sleeves expressionlessly, and then looked at Bai Xiyue's cheeks dyed with peach pink to look lively and cute, thinking that she was okay these days, she and Yan Ruyu took the wooden sword to slash, raised her eyebrows and asked, "Do you like to practice swords?" ”
Bai Xiyue looked at Yan Ruyu, ran to Ghost Che's side, and explained in a low voice in his ear: "No, I see that Brother Yu is not in a very good mood, so I want to accompany him more." ”
All the beautiful men are depressed, so she has to accompany the beautiful men to practice swords? The ghost reached out unhappily and lifted Bai Xiyue's little ear, and said in a strange voice: "Why don't I see that you are a gentle and considerate good girl on weekdays?" Don't you think I'm depressed right now? ”
Bai Xiyue lifted her toes to cooperate with Ghost Che's movements, and muttered, "You were still sleeping just now, why are you unhappy?" ”
Who says sleep means happy? Ghost Che warned again, "I'm very unhappy right now. Saying that, he smirked at Yan Ruyu and said, "Yan Daxia, can you go and sit in other carriages?"
Yan Ruyu twitched the corners of his mouth, frowned and said analytically: "Whose carriage do you think it is more convenient for me to go to?" The spring flower girl was about to get married, and it was inconvenient to go with the man, and the carriages of the other dart masters were so crowded that there was no place to put her feet. ”
Ghost Che hugged Bai Xiyue and thought for a moment, and proposed, "Isn't Hua Nanrong also following behind?" Although he likes men, you have martial arts and are not afraid of him. ”
Why didn't he hear that Hua Nanrong still has this special hobby, the playboy in Jinling City really knows how to play, but in his heart, he once again passed the fact that the Hua family was full of beheadings, frowned and asked: "Hua Nanrong, he still dares to follow us back to Jinling City?" ”
"I don't know which tendon is wrong in his head, I guess he is barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes, how to say that he is now also the brother-in-law of the third prince Cang Anlan." The ghost said indifferently, saying that, he pushed the door and ordered the mountain spirit to stop the carriage, pulled Bai Xiyue out of the carriage, and said with a smile: "That's it, I'll go with Xiyue to see that idiot, it's okay to ask about the situation, you can rest in the carriage." ”
Pushing the window from the outside to see Yan Ruyu's helpless expression, Ghost Che took out the blue booklet's Spring Palace picture from his wide sleeves, threw it into his arms, shook his head and said: "There is a golden house in the book, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book, give you a book that really has Yan Ruyu, before entering the carriage, I will say hello, rest assured and bold to read it." ”
Yan Ruyu looked at the blue delicate booklet with the words "Baimei Tu" written on it, closed the car window and ignored others.
Hua Nanrong felt a slight pause in the carriage, and when he saw that it was a ghost, he told the coachman to remember to stop.
When Ghost Che walked into the carriage, Hua Nanrong's handsome and white face was full of complaints: "I thought you forgot about me." ”
Pulled Xiyue closer to the carriage, "What do you say, it seems that you are my concubine who has been neglected for several days." Ghost said funny.
Hua Nanrong pulled his throat and defended weakly: "I didn't mean that!" Looking at Bai Xiyue who had been smiling, she was instantly healed by this innocent and holy smile, and greeted with a smirk: "Miss Xiyue is also here, sit down, sit down." ”
He took out two pieces of paper from his body, put them in Bai Xiyue's hand obediently, and said as if he had lost his soul: "Miss Xiyue, this is what you asked me to check." ”
Bai Xiyue looked at the paper in her hand, thinking that she hadn't asked Hua Nanrong to do anything, and was about to ask, when she saw Ghost Che rubbing her forehead, she hurriedly handed the thing in her hand to Ghost Che, and said with a wink: "Look at this thing, you won't have a headache if you see it." ”
Ghost Che took the things sent by Bai Xiyue, and looked at Hua Nanrong first, and then carefully watched the contents in detail.
Gu Qiushui is also a legendary woman in the rivers and lakes, she has no quarrel with the world, indifferent to fame and fortune, when she traveled in the world, she happened to meet the Demon Sect Leader to attack a decent master, and helped each other, many sects never expected that a woman who looked thin was calm and relaxed, and her shape moved at will, and a Qiushui long sword in her hand waved lightly, and the sword qi revealed a blood-red edge, waving in the air like a red lotus, as fast as lightning and going straight to the throat of the Demon Sect Master.
The martial arts practitioners present set off a storm in their hearts, even if they have practiced swordsmanship for fifty or sixty years, they can't do such exquisite swordsmanship, they don't want this weak woman's swordsmanship to reach the realm of immortalization, people stared at the lost mind, the woman withdrew the long sword in her hand, and said indifferently to the demon sect leader: "Since it is already a defeat, I will not take your life, and I will do it myself in the future, don't do this kind of stupid thing with many enemies again." ”
The Demon Sect evacuated, and people asked if this woman was from Lingyun Peak, called Gu Qiushui, at that time, how many disciples were eager for Gu Qiushui's swordsmanship, hoping to learn one or two, but they went to Lingyun Peak to apprentice but failed repeatedly, and some people even rolled down the cliff without even half of Ling Fengfeng Peak and were shattered.
One year, two years, three years, Lingyun Peak will be accompanied by people every year to climb the mountain to apprentice, every year is all in vain, for a long time, people will say that the woman who is a flash is a legend, the appearance is peerless, the swordsmanship is incomparable, it is only the fairy in the sky will have a graceful posture, the failure to succeed in apprenticeship is because the fairy is located Lingyun Peak has the blessing of the gods, and mortals are not allowed to disturb the fairy Qingxiu.
It is not without reason that people care about Gu Qiushui's actions, every time Gu Qiushui goes down the mountain, he will practice medicine for people, and always maintain the appearance of a woman about twenty years old, so she is called "Qiushui Fairy" like this.
Ten years ago, there was a teenager wearing smoke-green clothes, carrying a very simple baggage, crutches to climb Lingyun Peak, people described that the boy looked about ten years old, I don't know where he came from, his body was extremely thin and seemed to have suffered a lot, but he had a beautiful long curly amber hair, and his eyes were as bright as stars when he smiled.
Unexpectedly, once the boy was gone, he never returned, some people said that the boy fell into the cliff like other people who were eager to succeed, and some people said that the boy had worshiped under Gu Qiushui's door and became the only heir of Qiushui Sword.
This is very consistent with the situation of Yan Ruyu's ten-year-old apprenticeship.
In Hua Nanrong's investigation, Gu Qiushui still went down the mountain to buy necessary things for life during the eight years when he was a teenager, and often bought some snacks for children, and later stopped buying some things, but every time he went down the mountain, he would inevitably buy two strings of sugar gourds.
She rarely buys clothes and jewelry, and mostly buys cloth from shops and sews it herself.
Until two years ago, Gu Qiushui didn't buy sugar gourds anymore when he went down the mountain, but bought a few brightly colored fine tribute satin and exquisite jewelry in the store, and went up the mountain with a melancholy expression, and never appeared in the nearby towns or villages again.
I can't tell when it is, the seemingly precipitous Lingyun Peak is no longer so difficult to climb, and it is not even any different from ordinary peaks, and people only know the truth that Gu Qiushui is dead when they climb the mountain together.
The tombstone stands in the exquisite courtyard where she lives, and there is no engraved handwriting on the tombstone except for the three words Gu Qiushui.
But how Gu Qiushui died, no one knows.
After reading all the contents, Ghost Che looked up and looked at Hua Nanrong's face that was still a nymphomaniac, frowned and asked, "The Hua family, you only collected these things?" ”
Hua Nanrong glared at Ghost Che unconvinced, and said emphatically: "This is not detailed enough? You know, this was 10 years ago! My people have investigated all the people Gu Qiushui came into contact with before his death. ”
