Chapter 69: Depth Charges

On the fifth day of the winter month, three days after King Wu's birthday banquet, the small bridge in Hangzhou City was covered with a layer of silver.

In the past three days, Xu Buling did not continue to explore the movements of Wu Wangfu, and took Lu Hongluan and Xiao Qi to visit the major scenic spots in Hangzhou every day, and by the way, he selected some small gifts for the girls at home, poetry collections, rouge, jewelry, etc., and did not forget to bring a few Hangzhou specialties to Xiao Manzhi.

The light snow falls densely between the eaves of the buildings, and on the lakeside street full of the charm of the water town, Xu Buling is dressed in a white robe like snow, holding an oil-paper umbrella, and selects all kinds of novelty objects on the street.

The nightingale was wearing a small black jacket, some snowflakes had fallen on her hip-length braids, and her slender body was holding a large pile of wooden boxes, and she couldn't even see the road clearly, and she had to tilt her head hard to avoid entering the West Lake.

The nightingale's aura was a little more aggrieved in her big eyes, and she looked at Xu Buling, who was empty-handed, and whispered:

"Childe, I know ...... wrong"

"What's wrong?"

"Everywhere is wrong......

"Hmph—no sincerity."

"At that time, Mrs. Lu said that she wanted to go in and have a look, and Mrs. Lu knew that if I didn't let her in, I would definitely be more careful, and it would be the son who suffered at that time, and it would be better to do it now......"

Xu Buling was a little helpless, and rubbed his old waist, which was still a little painful: "What's good?" I've been ignoring me for two days, and when you encounter this kind of thing in the future, remember to cough ......"

"Got it, Childe."

The nightingale walked under Xu Buling's umbrella and smiled sweetly.

Xu Buling couldn't do anything about this little girl, shook his head slightly, raised his hand to take a few wooden boxes, and continued to walk along the lakeside street.

Two days ago, I had a fight with my father-in-law Zhu Liu, and sank a painting boat, although I didn't fall into a hard fight, but Xu Buling was obviously beaten one-sidedly, and it was also the first time that I realized that I still had room for improvement.

Looking at the beautiful lake with a snowy scene, Xu Buling thought for a moment and said softly:

"Nightingale, you are reading in the library, have you ever learned about water floating and other kung fu?"

Talking about martial arts, the nightingale suddenly became interested, and was rarely consulted by the son, thought about it, and replied seriously:

"Kung Fu floating on the water, the more famous ones are Wudang's 'Tiyun Zong' and Buddhism's 'One Reed Crossing the River', etc., all of which are the advanced martial arts of the inner family, among which the best ones are the Gonggong Jia in the palace, Chen Daozi, the god of killing in Wudang, and Zhang Buzheng of Longhu Mountain, there was also a wild Taoist Wu Wei before, I heard that he could run past Chen Daozi, but he only did light work, and the others were general, I don't know where to go, anyway, there are very few people who are famous for it......"

Xu Buling nodded slightly. Eighty percent of the martial artists on the rivers and lakes are all on the outer road, and the inner kung fu is both mysterious and difficult to practice to the fullest, and there are very few masters who can teach, and there are naturally fewer people who learn. The 'Crane Catcher' and 'White Snake Spit Letter' he used are all internal moves, but he used to be too brave and ruthless, and he learned all the killing moves, and he couldn't look down on the others, and he really didn't study them carefully.

After listening to the nightingale's careful explanation, Xu Buling asked, "Will you?" ”

The nightingale blinked her eyes wide, revealing a little smugness: "I will do what Childe will, and I will do if Childe can't." However, the kung fu of floating on the water is flashy, not to mention the injury caused by forcibly lifting the qi for too long, and there is not necessarily the speed of the master swimming, the only advantage is not to wet the clothes, what does the son learn to do? ”

Xu Buling coughed lightly, and after looking left and right a few times, he said softly:

"Handsome is done, don't care so much, find a place to try."

The nightingale suddenly realized, holding a pile of wooden boxes, and Xu Buling came to a secluded place by the lake. The surrounding area is full of willow forests, and it is cold and cold that there is no need for tourists to come, and you can only see a few painting boats on the lake in the distance.

The two put their things down, and the little nightingale clapped his palms, gathered up the hem of his skirt and tied it around his waist, and then took a long breath, and then walked lightly, but he walked like a fly, and rushed straight out of the shore and came to the lake.

Pedal Pedal –

Embroidered shoes ripple on the water, big braids flutter in the wind in the snowflakes, and thin shadows blink an eye on the calm lake outside the willow forest, never falling into the water, the scene is both chic and beautiful.

Xu Buling stood with an oil-paper umbrella in his hand, and after looking at it carefully for a while, he nodded slightly, as if he had realized.

The nightingale soon returned to the shore, because he had to tread water in a hurry, and it was obvious that it had taken a lot of effort, and his little face was red with a few beads of sweat, and he smiled as if offering a treasure:

"Childe, how is it?"

"Not bad......

Xu Buling nodded a few words of praise, put down the oil-paper umbrella, and then raised his hand to breathe.

The nightingale glanced a few times, took a few steps back, and shielded herself and the wooden box with an oil-paper umbrella.

Bang –

After a loud bang, Xu Buling left two pits where he was standing, and his body turned into a white rainbow and rose into the sky, and the cold wind hunted and tore the white robe, and after landing on the lake surface symbolically stepping on it a few times, it crashed into the lake water, setting off a splash more than two feet high......

————

A little hour later, in the courtyard of the Xiao family's house.

Xu Buling sat on the soft collapse next to the brass stove, wrapped in a blanket, with a slightly embarrassed expression.

Lu Hongluan took a towel and stood behind him to wipe Xu Buling's long hair, and said a little inexplicably:

"Ling'er, why did you go swimming in the lake in winter? Could it be that someone fell into the water and went to see the righteous and brave? ”

Xu Buling coughed lightly, raised his hand and blasted out the nightingale who was holding back laughter, and explained softly:

"Hmm...... I finally came to Hangzhou once, and I don't know what year it is when I come next time, and it would be a pity not to swim around the West Lake......"

"yes......"

Mrs. Lu knew that Xu Buling's martial arts were almost invincible in the world, and it was impossible for her to fall into the water, so she could only believe this explanation. frowned at the moment and said:

"The prince of the dignified domain, run to take a wild bath, let people see that they can't laugh to death, and they won't be allowed to do this in the future. Don't say anything else, what should I do if I catch a cold......"

"Got it......"

Xu Buling's face showed a rare sense of frustration. He is born with strong muscles and bones, and he is like a tiger with wings when he walks outside the country, but when he practices this skill of relying on internal strength and skillful support, it is easy to lose his strength and use too much force, just like an old woman wearing armor and a general's embroidery, which is very awkward. However, the talent of martial arts is here, and you can understand it after practicing it about ten times.

After staying in the house for a while, Xiao Qi's guards suddenly ran in, saying that Wu Wangfu had sent someone to send the jade back.

Xu Buling knew that King Wu must have finished drawing the map, and he was afraid that he would soon set off to Bodhi Island to find something very important. After changing his clothes at the moment, he got up and came to the living room, thinking that it would be Song Yulou or Han Xianchu who came to return the jade, but he didn't expect that the person sitting in the living room waiting was a middle-aged Confucian in a robe, and the one who chased him on the lake the day before yesterday......
