"Ouch, my little ancestor, is Marquis Yang the one we can afford to provoke in Huajian Alley?" The old bustard said to Miss Fang Ning in a helpless tone, and then she turned her head to look at the woman in red, "And you, every time you come to Huajian Lane, it will be fine, if it weren't for the fact that you are the girl's sister, the old lady would have kicked you out a long time ago." ”

Originally, the old bustard wanted to speak ill of Chu Birou as well, but when she recalled the scene when Chu Birou easily repelled Yang Min's men, she seemed a little timid, so she left a little helplessly.

The little girl thanked the girl for her help, and invited the girl to sit down and continue listening to the song. Xia'er, you can accompany this girl for me first, and we will have to thank them later. After thanking Chu Birou, Miss Fang Ning continued to play the piano song she had just finished.

"Sister, your kung fu is amazing, when will you teach my little sister a few tricks, I don't want to even beat these ruffians!" The woman in red seemed to have instantly become a little fan sister of Chu Birou.

In the mutual introduction, Chu Birou learned that the woman in red was named Chen Yuxia, and her mentorship was Yuelu Mountain Binghuang Valley, and she was the sister of Chen Fangning, who was playing the kite. Chu Birou then took her to the location where Gao Che and the others were, and the five of them chatted happily amid the melodious sound of the piano.

"This little friend, I don't know if you know how to play?" While a few people were chatting, an old man with a long beard and simple clothes walked up to everyone and asked Gao Che.

After receiving a puzzled affirmative answer, the old man invited him to his seat to play a game with him.

"This... This uncle, as far as the younger generation knows, what is needed to play chess is to calm down and not be disturbed by the outside world. But with all the noise around here, it's probably not a great place to talk, right? Goucher was still a little confused about the old man's intention to invite him to play chess.

"Hehe, the key to playing chess lies in people's hearts, as long as your heart is like water, why be afraid of the hustle and bustle of the outside world?" The old man said with a kind smile, and then he looked at Chu Birou who was sitting next to Gao Che, "If this girl next to you is also interested in this, you might as well accompany this son to come over and give it a try." ”

Gao Che and Chu Birou followed him to a seat in the corner next to him with some embarrassment on their faces under the old man's kind invitation, and the chessboard for the game had been set up on the table at this moment.

"I don't know why a few little friends came to this flower alley to find the old decay?"

Not long after the two of them started playing chess, the old man suddenly blurted out a sentence that made Chu Birou and Gao Che stunned for a moment.

"Dare to ask your surname?" Chu Birou and Gao Che looked at each other and asked the old man softly.

"It was the boy in my house who told you I was here, right? Alas, with Huan Qing's guy, he has a virtue, and he always likes to disturb my peace from time to time. The old man didn't answer positively, but after he said this, Gao Che and Chu Birou naturally knew his identity. In view of the fact that there are many people in Huajian Alley, the thoughtful two people tacitly did not show much change in expression, and the content of the conversation between the three people was only a discussion and small talk about the layout of the chessboard.

Time passed quickly in this bright alley, and soon, Chen Fangning in the center of the stage finished playing all her repertoire for the evening, and the various audiences in the hall were ready to leave in twos and threes. Perhaps he was shocked by the scene where Chu Birou taught Yang Min's subordinates, after that, the rich children who had spit filthy words at Miss Chen Fangning before had almost become much more peaceful, and the noise of the entire banquet had become even less than the atmosphere of the ordinary Flower Alley.

Unconsciously, the three people who were originally sitting on the other side chatting also came over to watch the game between Gao Che and the old man. However, despite the fact that he was already one of the best among his peers in chess, the old man ruthlessly defeated Gao Che with relative ease in 60 rounds.

"It seems that Mr. has expected that Blossom Lane will be much quieter than usual at this time, so that he will have the leisure to play against this son, right?" After Gao Che reluctantly admitted defeat, Chen Fangning, who had changed into a lilac palace skirt and casual clothes, walked slowly to the side of everyone and asked.

"Hehe, Miss Fang Ning is too worried, I'm just an old man who likes to walk around when I have nothing to do. I accidentally heard that Miss Fang Ning had excellent piano skills, so I walked to Huajian Lane to prepare for a feast. The old man said with a helpless look on his face.

"This girl, as well as the girl's companions, since the little girl has a fate with you today, if you don't dislike it, please come to the little girl's room to talk about it, and our sisters will thank you for your help today." Chen Fangning showed everyone's beautiful temperament and said loudly to everyone present.

Because Liu Yangyang felt a little unwell, Chu Birou politely declined the invitation of the Chen sisters and accompanied Liu Yangyang and Tong Kun back to the inn to rest first, while Gao Che came to Chen Fanning's wing with Zhu Yifu after getting Chu Birou's hint.

Chen Fangning played a few piano songs again in the room as a token of gratitude, while Chen Yuxia accompanied her with bagpipes.

"Although this song seems to have a light melody, it actually has a lot of sadness buried in the melody, which is difficult for ordinary listeners to detect." Zhu Yifu said to himself while brushing his beard.

At the end of the song, Gao Che applauded and praised Chen Fangning's performance, and then he asked where he was studying.

Chen Fangning replied that she didn't know the real name of the person who taught her the art of the piano, but that person had left her a somewhat shabby sheet music many years ago and told her to devote herself to practicing, and after leaving a sentence of "I will come to see you again when you are successful", the person left her and has not been heard from since.

Zhu Yifu also curiously asked Chen Fangning about her master, and Chen Fangning then said that about eight years ago, the sisters were going to Chengdu to search for their long-missing parents after being kicked out of the house by their uncle. On the way, just as they were about to be kidnapped by a group of human traffickers, a woman with a white veil and a white veil on her back descended in front of them like a fairy. Immediately afterward, the woman quickly pulled out a slender iron sword from the piano, and soon beat the thieves into a panic, and she saved many young girls in addition to their sisters.

(The Chan sisters are caught up in the memories)

"Senpai, Senpai, please wait a minute!" Chen Fangning, who was only 12 years old at the time, knelt down to the woman in white who was about to leave with a "poof" with red circles in her eyes, "My sister Xia'er hasn't eaten for many days, and our sister is helpless, I really can't bear to see her suffer so much with me again." I beg my seniors to take her in, I'm kowtowing to my seniors here! ”

"Sister, don't cry, I'm not hungry, really." The young Chen Yuxia gently held Chen Fangning's arm and said with a childish expression.

The woman in white stood in place with her back to the sisters and thought for a while, then she gradually retracted her steps to leave and turned to look at Chen Fangning, who was kneeling on the ground and crying.

"What if I don't allow it?" The woman in white asked in a cold tone.

"Everything...... It's up to the seniors to decide, but no matter how hard it is, I will let my sister live well. Chen Fangning wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes in frustration, and then she slowly stood up and prepared to take Chen Yuxia in the direction of Chengdu to continue walking.

"You ...... Come with me! ”

The woman in white turned to leave with a still indifferent tone before turning away, while the sisters cautiously followed behind the woman in white until they came to a quiet hut nestled in a peach blossom forest.

"I still have some peach blossom cake here, you can eat some first." The woman took out some peach blossom cakes wrapped in fabric from a drawer and placed them in front of the sisters.

Seeing the sisters gobbling up, the woman in white with a cold face and a warm heart showed a look of both pampering and worry on her face. When the woman in white asked them why they had gone to Chengdu, she couldn't help but worry about the sisters' future fate.

"You...... Can you play the zither? The woman in white asked Chen Faning in a tentative tone.

"No...... No, the qin zheng is my uncle's treasure, and I don't dare to touch it with Xia'er. ”

"My sister will, my sister plays it well, but my aunt won't let my sister play, saying that she will break the zither if she is clumsy."

Listening to Chen Yuxia's immature childish voice, the woman in white looked at Chen Fangning's evasive eyes, thinking of the experience she had when she was a child, and she could roughly imagine the unhappy life of the sisters staying at their distant relative's house.

"Come on, let's try it." The woman in white put her zither in front of Chen Fangning.

When Chen Fangning shyly plucked the strings and played an ethereal melody, the woman in white turned her back on them and took off the veil on her face, and a shallow but slender scar appeared on her white cheek on the left side.

After that, the woman in white accompanied the sisters to Chengdu to inquire about their parents, but in vain.

Because she couldn't bear to see the lonely sisters wandering in the rivers and lakes, and at the same time saw that her sister Chen Fangning also had a good talent in music, so the woman in white temporarily kept them by her side.

A year later, Yu Zhongrui, the owner of Ice Phoenix Valley, accidentally visited the woman in white. When she first saw her smart and lively sister Chen Yuxia, she fell in love with her, and then after discussion, in order to allow the two sisters to grow up independently and gain a foothold in this chaotic rivers and lakes, her sister Chen Yuxia followed Yu Zhongrui to Yuelu Mountain Binghuang Valley to practice martial arts, and her sister Chen Fangning continued to stay with the woman in white to learn qin art and sword martial arts.

(The sisters' memories come to an abrupt end)

"There is a scar on the left side of the face, hide the slender iron sword in the qin, and condense the sword qi with the sound of the qin, so ......"

"Does the gentleman already know the identity of Miss Fang Ning's master?"

Gao Che asked politely after hearing what Zhu Yifu was muttering.

"Hehe, Miss Fang Ning's master was also famous in the rivers and lakes back then, the girl only needs to ask someone with a little experience in the rivers and lakes about the 'Four Uniques of Sword Forging' back then, and she will naturally know your master's name and life."

Here Zhu Yifu was obviously reluctant to tell her the identity of Master Chen Fangning directly, and Chen Fangning also got up and thanked Zhu Yifu after realizing this meaning, and said that she would continue to try to find out more about Master.

After sending Gao Che and Zhu Yifu away, Chen Fangning asked Chen Yuxia with concern why she left the Ice Phoenix Valley and came to Tanzhou, and Chen Yuxia told her that she came out to find the senior brother who had lost contact with her for a long time, and if she couldn't find him, she didn't want to go back to the Ice Phoenix Valley.

"So, do you really have a real affection for him?"

"Well, I will be where my senior brother is, and I will never let him leave me."

Chen Fangning's inquiry with a helpless tone was answered affirmatively by Chen Yuxia.

Shortly after Chen Yuxia left the room, an arrow with a note was shot into Chen Fangning's room.

"Xia'er...... Wait a little longer, sister, after tomorrow, we can finally live the life we want. ”

After reading the few numbers left on the note, Chen Fangning walked to the table and slowly poured a glass of wine for herself. Looking at the bright moon hanging high in the night sky outside the window, her originally clear and gentle eyes gradually revealed a chilling killing intent.

"For Xia'er, I'm ...... Willing to do anything! ”
