Chapter 13: Baichuan Villa (I)
Chapter 13 Baichuan Villa (I) When it comes to Baichuan Villa, everyone in Hangzhou knows about it, in addition, I am afraid that anyone who mentions it will have to add a few sentences, such as the heroism of the old man Bai, the benevolence and generosity, and the extraordinary handsome and chic of the son of the Bai family.
Baichuan Villa was originally just the place where the Bai family, the gentry of Hangzhou City, the Bai family has been doing business for generations, the family is rich, and it is the leading business family in the entire Tiansheng Dynasty, and there was no fame in the rivers and lakes, but twenty-five years ago, Bai Letian, the son of the owner of the Bai family of the previous generation, became famous in the rivers and lakes with a set of marksmanship through the clouds and thirteen styles, and broke out of a famous hall, so the Bai family also has a place in the rivers and lakes.
Bai Lotian married a wife and had children after middle age, and took over the family business, which made the Bai family's business to a higher level, but he was bold by nature, and he never broke off contact with friends in the rivers and lakes, and even in recent years, he was given the title of "businessman" because he liked to make friends with heroes. Therefore, the people he invited for his 50th birthday were not only people in the rivers and lakes, but also people from the government and some friends in business. In addition, he held a seven-day banquet on Chengdong Street, vowing to make the whole city of Hangzhou happy with him.
On the first day, the dignitaries were invited to a banquet, on the second day they were invited to relatives and friends, and on the third day, it was their turn to be the people of the rivers and lakes.
In this regard, the people who came did not have any objections, after all, Baichuan Villa invited people with good words, and all the food and accommodation were arranged in an orderly manner, and even if you were bored, there would be someone to take you around, and appreciate this holy place on earth that is no less than heaven, so settle down, absolutely make you feel at home, and what is there to be dissatisfied with?
Bai Lotian and Shui Fengqing only had some dealings in the medicinal herb business, and they only nodded their heads with Suifeng, so they didn't expect to hear back this time, but they didn't want to have two disciples who not only came, but also two disciples who came, which made Bai Lotian feel more and more light on his face, and naturally treated Weiyu and Li Xia more carefully.
But said that outside Hangzhou that day, Weiyu was naturally very happy to meet Li Xia, and when Gu Zhen drove her out that day, he said that Li Xia would also go and let her go to the east gate of Hangzhou City to meet him. Gu Zhen deliberately let her go out a few days early in case she missed it, but he forgot one thing - Weiyu couldn't ride a horse, and Gu Zhen didn't seem to think of teaching her to ride a horse at all. In desperation, Weiyu had to go to the Huichun Hall in Yuezhou Mansion to ask for a carriage, but what she never expected was that she would get motion sickness!
After I don't know how many times I vomited in the dark, and I couldn't vomit anything anymore, Weiyu had to let the carriage of the Rejuvenation Hall go back, and only went on the road, although she was good at light work, but she couldn't use it all the time, just stop and go, and only remembered when she was hungry and wanted to eat, Gu Zhen didn't give her any silver when she went out, and she completely forgot about it when she went to the Rejuvenation Hall before, so the young master of the dignified water and breeze, Gu Zhen's descendant disciple could only rush hungry, fortunately, I met an old man who delivered forage on the way, Otherwise, when she walks to Hangzhou City, the birthday banquet may have ended.
After Li Xia left the school, he was ordered to go to Baichuan Villa. Sui Feng didn't like these people's contacts, but he thought that it would be good to let Li Xia go around, so he ordered him to go. He should have ridden much faster, but Li Xia first turned the road to the former residence of the Xia family in the countryside of Yuezhou Mansion, which was originally the hometown of the Xia family, which was abandoned in the early years, so it had long been deserted.
Xiao Lian Sword, one of the three swords of Yin Tianzi, is as famous as Hanguang and Chengying, and is also the three swords of Yin Tianzi, which was also collected by Kong Zhou, a famous sword collector, and then disappeared due to the war, but it fell into the hands of the Xia family. It's just that for several generations, no one in the Xia family has practiced martial arts, and they are just ordinary merchants, but they have caused the disaster of annihilation. Now he is no longer a powerless teenager when he was young, he can only be slaughtered, since he has learned to become a teacher, he naturally wants to track down the real murderer of the year, take revenge, and comfort his parents' souls in the sky.
After going to the cemetery to say goodbye to his parents, he set off for Hangzhou, and at that time, Weiyu couldn't ride a horse, so he picked a path to walk in order to save time, so the two staggered.
There is a sense between famous swords, not to mention that Hanguang and Xiao Lian were originally from the hands of the same sword-casting master, and it was because she felt the light sound of Hanguang that day before the rain, so she would look back, but she didn't want to be Li Xia, she still had a lot of feelings for this young "little follower". What's more, with the wind, he often goes to Shui Fengqing as a guest, and Li Xia will naturally follow, and the two often learn from each other when they practice martial arts, and they benefit each other. I have to say that Li Xia at this time is no less than a lifesaver for her, because it means that she finally has silver, and having silver means having food, drinking, and most importantly - someone can finally take her on a horse.
She grew up with Li Xia, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is a childhood sweetheart, and Li Xia takes care of her a lot because of her life-saving grace, just like a brother and sister, so the two of them have no plans for men and women. It's just that they don't care, but the people who saw this scene that day had different thoughts. It's just that Weiyu doesn't know anything about it, and even if she knows, I'm afraid she won't care, why should she care about the people she meets.
Not to mention these, Weiyu is now very comfortable in Baichuan Villa, Baichuan Villa is extremely vast, and what she has seen is probably not much better than the clear water and wind. Moreover, most of the buildings in Hangzhou are ingenious, and Baichuan Villa is financially abundant, and the whole villa is very richly repaired, but it will not make people feel too tacky.
Bai Lotian has two sons and one daughter, the eldest son is named Bai Ruoxi, who is nineteen years old this year, is humble and skillful, and is deeply relied on by Bai Lotian. The second son, Bai Ruohong, likes to practice martial arts, befriends chivalrous warriors, is bold but a little reckless, quite similar to Bai Letian's personality when he was young; The young girl is white Ruoshui, beautiful and natural, unparalleled in appearance, is a famous beauty in Hangzhou, the most rare, gentle and polite, without the delicate temper of a rich lady, is the pearl of Bai Letian's palm, but, how thin her life is, this Miss Bai seems to have been in poor health since she was a child, often sick and recuperating, and rarely goes out.
At this time, there were two people sitting on the roof of a courtyard in Baichuan Villa - the boring Weiyu and Li Xia, a few years have passed, Li Xia has also faded from the immaturity of his youth and grown into a handsome and upright beautiful man, but he suffered a big change when he was young, and his temperament has been cold, and he only eased up when he faced Weiyu, Suifeng and Gu Zhen. This first day was supposed to entertain the court officials, and there was nothing to do with them, so they arrived relatively early, and after settling down and washing, the two of them naturally had something to say after not seeing each other for a long time.
"So, you still don't know who your family's killer is?" Wei Yu fiddled with the Xiao Lian Sword in her hand, since she heard that the Xiao Lian Sword was in Li Xia's hand, she was very curious, and now that she got it in her hand, she naturally wanted to carefully appreciate the style of this sword.
Different from the light sword, the legend says that Xiao Lian "sees the shadow but does not see the light during the day, and sees the light but does not see the shape at night", that is, you can see the shadow but not its light during the day, and you can see its light but not its appearance at night.
Li Xia was not displeased with her playful behavior, let her watch, but still said with a cold face: "Yes, but I must find them, no matter who they are, I will definitely make them pay for their blood debts!" Anyway, there seems to be a strong killing intent emanating from him, the ancient famous sword is magical, Xiao Lianjian seems to sense his murderous aura, and emits a burst of light sounds, this light sound is different from the light sound when it comes into contact with the light, vaguely like a little bloodthirsty excitement.
Seeing him like this, Wei Yu had to sigh secretly, if he didn't avenge the blood feud, he was afraid that he would have to live in this shadow for the rest of his life, and she, as a friend, had no choice but to help him take revenge, "Then what are your plans now?" But what's the idea? "If there is no goal, how is it different from looking for a needle in a haystack?
"Since they're here to practice swords, then I'll let them know!" The indifferent voice seemed to be talking only about things outside of one's body.
"You mean?" Wei Yu was startled, and then frowned, "Are you planning to spread the news that Xiao Lian Sword is in your hands, and wait for them to come to the door to find it themselves?" ”
"Not bad!"
"Wrong! Miss by a mile! Wei Yu tightened his eyebrows, "I don't think it's a good idea, with your current strength, even if you learn your uncle's kung fu, you won't necessarily be their opponent." ”
"So what?" It was still an indifferent voice, as if nothing else could enter his heart except revenge.
Hearing him say this, Wei Yu's always sunny smile instantly turned into a sneer: "What a 'so what', what is your uncle's ten-year teaching?" What is the ten-year friendship between you and me in your eyes? ”
With the wind, there were slight waves under his eyes, and the corners of his mouth moved, but he didn't say anything.
It's just that when Weiyu saw him like this, he only felt that the fire in his heart rose immediately, and he couldn't help but ask sharply: "I didn't know that following my uncle to teach you for ten years was just to let you die, and I didn't know that my uncle was just a tool that could help you take revenge in your eyes?" ”
"Master's kindness, the mountains are high and the sea is deep, I will repay it!"
"Repay? Take the death as a reward? Do you know what it means to be born with a sword? Not to mention those who have already had the idea of fighting it, with the likes of Kunwu Sword in the present world, they will cause the rivers and lakes to surge, once it is rumored that Xiao Lian is in your hands, there will be countless people who will swarm in, even if the bloody wind and rain are light, then how can you tell who is your enemy? Seeing that he didn't answer, Weiyu then said angrily, "You only have one person, but you don't know that there are hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of them!" How many lives do you have to die for?! ”
After listening to Weiyu's words, Li Xia's eyes were shocked, and fell on Xiao Lianjian, he had never thought of this before, and he sank for a while before he spoke, "I didn't think of it before", after speaking, his eyebrows suddenly furrowed, and he turned his head to look at Weiyu, "Isn't Hanguang also in your hand?" ”
Seeing that he was still a little sensible, and the rain had disappeared a lot, listening to him ask this, I knew that he had no ill intentions, just caring, "It's in my hands," she said indifferently, "So, since the day I got it, Master has warned me that unless I have to do it, I will never show it until I am sure that I can have it without fear." ”
After speaking, she put the sword into the sheath and threw the Xiao Lian sword to Li Xia, "You'd better remember this sentence." ”
Li Xia took the sword and stared at it for a long time before saying, "If not, do you have any other way?" ”
