14. Exaggerated acting skills

The edge of the hillock.

Yang Beihan, who has a short figure and sharp-beaked monkey gills, is sitting cross-legged on a stone.

He shared with Xiao Tie the wine and peanuts he brought, this guy glanced at the scene on the hillock, then pouted, turned his head to Xiao Tie, who was eating peanuts and rice, and said very fragrantly:

"This is lifeless, and his mind is simple, so the master of the door let me watch him, lest he do something strange.

But little brother, you see, no matter how hard this seat takes care of him, he will still do stupid things. It's just the same as when I took care of the young brothers Zhang Chu and Zhang Lan.

Bear child, very annoying. ”

"You're also a member of the Seven Peerless Sects?"

Xiao Tie carried the fine iron sword box on his back, and while throwing peanuts into his mouth, he said to Yang Beihan:

"Then why didn't you attack me just now? Don't poison these peanuts and wine? ”

"What do you use to deal with your child who hasn't grown up yet?"

Yang Beihan sneered, and said triumphantly to Xiao Tie:

"Don't look at the face of this seat is a mess, this seat is not weak in this body, you really want to fight, you reckless young man, you can't take ten moves in your hands, do you believe it or not?

However, since Na Wu Wusheng and Shen Qiu didn't ask each other about life and death, why should this seat fight and kill a young man like you?

Isn't it beautiful to eat, drink, and chat like this? ”

"You people in the Demon Sect are a bunch of weirdos."

Xiao Tie complained.

He thought about it for a while, and then said to Yang Beihan:

"You came with those Flame Cultists?"

"Yo, the little brother is still in this seat."

Yang Beihan laughed, he picked up the wine gourd, poured himself a sip, wiped his mouth again, and then said slowly:

"It doesn't hurt to tell you, I did come with them, and I was going to help catch that Yaoqin girl.

But later, when I saw that you were too powerful, I was very scared, so I ran away secretly.

Anyway, the Demon Sect is not ashamed to run away.

The master of the door did not give the order to die, and it happened that this sorrowful life was defeated by Shen Qiu twice, and he wanted to fight for the third time, so he stayed in Suzhou for a few more days. ”

"Why are you arresting Miss Yaoqin?"

Xiao Tie asked again.

Yang Beihan shrugged his shoulders and said:

"Why are you asking me, isn't that Yaoqin being guarded in the Zen monastery? Just ask her if she can't.

Okay, the wine has been drunk, the fight has been fought, everything that needs to be said has been said, it's time to go. ”

The five-short demon sect man jumped up, he hung the wine gourd around his waist, and said to Xiao Tie:

"You young man, you are a good person, and you don't have the bad habit of judging people by their appearance like everyone else, alas."

He sighed, touched the face of your own sharp-beaked monkey, sighed, and said:

"If this seat was back then, he would have looked like a young man like you, born with natural divine power, strong physique, and dignified appearance.

In this vast world, everyone is talking about the goodness of the heart, which is better than the beauty of the skin.

But ten of these ten people are judged by their appearance, which is really hypocritical. ”

"You don't look like a bad person."

Xiao Tie glanced at Xiao Qiu, who was talking to Shen Qiu on the hill, and said:

"It's not like that."

"Smack"

Yang Beihan's curled fingers hit Xiao Tie's forehead like a phantom, and he moved his body and said:

"At a young age, what can you see?

You don't know the art of face-to-face, how can you know the good and evil of people's hearts, this makes people laugh. There were not five hundred decent people who died under this seat, but three hundred.

In your decent mouth, this seat is the most heinous Seven Absolute Demons. ”

"Xiao Tie, come here."

Shen Qiu suddenly shouted, interrupting Yang Beihan and Xiao Tie's chat, Xiao Tie showed an apologetic smile to Yang Beihan, and stepped forward.

"Take a look at Juque's life."

Shen Qiu put away the shaking light, said a word to Xiao Tie, and then turned his head to worry about his life and said:

"Ask this sword as well and see what it's all about."

He doesn't care about his life, he likes to chat with these treasure soldiers, these treasure soldiers won't lie to him, it's much more interesting than chatting with people who know people who don't know their hearts.

Seeing Xiao Tie take out Juque, there was a trace of curiosity and exploration in his eyes.

He held out his finger and placed it on the broad blade of the giant sword.

But in the next moment, Wu Wulife's face changed, and he withdrew his fingers like an electric shock.

He said to Shen Qiu and Xiao Tie:

"This sword, I don't ask."

"Why?"

Shen Qiu asked.

"No, why, that is, don't ask."

Wu Wuxian took a few steps back, he looked at the giant que in Xiao Tie's hand, and said:

"It warns me, asks, and dies."

These words made Shen Qiu and Xiao Tie glance at each other, and it seemed that there was indeed a secret in the giant sword left behind by the folding mountain.

Perhaps, it has something to do with Penglai in the East China Sea.

"Aren't you fearless?"

Shen Qiu said a word, blinked his blue eyes with no fate, and he said to Shen Qiu suspiciously:

"I'm not afraid, but it has given a warning, why should I continue? There is no fear in the heart, but it is not, you have to look for death. Shen Qiu, you guys, you have such strange thoughts. ”

"No life, it's time to go."

Yang Beihan stood on the stone by the hillock and shouted.

Wu Wusheng also responded, and walked towards Yang Beihan with the knife box on his back.

He took a few steps, turned around, learned the gestures of the Jianghu people, and said to Shen Qiu:

"When I break through the sword technique, I will challenge you, Shen Qiu, next time, don't refuse, just like this time, only talk about knife skills, regardless of life and death.

Luckily? ”

"If it's a competition, it's no problem."

Shen Qiu said to Wu Wufang:

"But if Zhang Chu lets you fight me to the death, there will be no next time."

"No, it won't."

With a shy grin, he said to Shen Qiu:

"Brother Zhang Chu, said it, he will solve the grievances with his own hands, Brother Zhang Chu, swordsmanship, far better than me, you, be careful. Between you and me, learning is it. ”

"It's just a defeated general, just Zhang Chu, I'm not afraid of him."

Shen Qiu rubbed his wrists, watching Wu Wuxian and Yang Beihan disappear into the hilly forest, he turned back to Xiao Tie and said:

"Did you ask that?"

"Well, ask some."

Xiao Tie held the giant sword and said to Shen Qiu:

"That Yang Beihan is very strange, he didn't hide this, and he didn't avoid me.

They did come with the Holy Fire Sect, and it was indeed for Miss Yaoqin, but he didn't say why.

Big brother, that Yang Beihan, although he is kind to me, he gives me the feeling that when facing my father, he is just a little worse, and he should also be a great master. ”

"Just go back and ask Zhang Lan."

Shen Qiu sighed, looked at the moonlight above his head, and felt a little irritable in his heart.

He said:

"Let's go back, now that we have confirmed the purpose of the Holy Fire Sect, there are some things, so I have to ask Yaoqin."

The two returned to the Zen Monastery in the middle of the night, and Qingqing and Zhang Lan were waiting for them.

Xiao Tie asked about Yang Beihan.

Zhang Lan said that Yang Beihan was an elder of the Seven Peerless Sects, and he also followed his father at the beginning, and after Zhang Chu took over the Seven Peerless Sects, Yang Beihan has always been very low-key.

But among the Seven Peerless Sects, the real deep-water predators, even Zhang Chu and Zhang Lan, were raised by him and Kutuo.

Moreover, this Yang Beihan has a perverse temperament and is not easy to get along with.

"Tonight, fortunately, you didn't ridicule him for his short body and sharp-beaked monkey gills."

Zhang Lan said to Xiao Tie:

"That's Uncle Beihan's taboo, if anyone dares to mention it, he will be angry, like a demon, even if he chases and kills for thousands of miles, he must tear that person's mouth, but he will die.

You believe me, Uncle Beihan has done this more than once. ”

"Senior brother, Xiao Tie said you won again."

Qingqing girl was very happy, she stood beside Shen Qiu and said to her senior brother:

"If you can win the evil sword master, my brother's martial arts are really powerful."

"It's hard to win."

Shen Qiu stretched out his hand and patted his green hair, and he said:

"That worry is lifeless, he is a real genius of swordsmanship, he can see ordinary swordsmanship, and the next time he comes to challenge and learn, the senior brother will be under a lot of pressure.

After this is over, it is time to continue to practice swordsmanship.

Go and rest, Qingqing.

I'm going to do something later. ”

After persuading Qingqing to sleep, Shen Qiu walked in the Zen courtyard and leaped up along the edge of the wall.

He also deliberately picked up the bell, avoided people, and walked forward quickly with phantom footwork.

The progress of the Five Elements Gate's bell secret method practice was not great, and now even if Shen Qiu tried his best to control it, there would still be a clanging sound between movements.

That thing is not the same as martial arts.

It pays attention to practice makes perfect, and it is necessary to practice for a long time to change one's habits, so that the body moves lightly, and finally to the extent that the leaves do not stick to the body.

"Huh"

Shen Qiu's figure crossed the back of the Zen Temple, which was uninhabited in the past, a bit of an abandoned scene.

Yaoqin lived here temporarily at this time.

The Phantom Footwork was used together with the snow steps he had been practicing for the past few days, allowing him to fly fast, and when he was lifting his qi and flying, he could sweep more than three feet away with a slight start.

"Huh"

Shen Qiu fell from the high wall and landed in front of the source where Yaoqin lived.

There is the Mo family guarding here, and in the ink black of the Tianji Pavilion in Suzhou City, I heard that the Qintai was attacked, and I also rushed to the Zen Temple to guard it in the afternoon.

"Uncle Hei, don't listen to the corner."

Shen Qiu said loudly:

"I'm here to visit Yaoqin, I have something to ask her, if you're interested, come along."

"Haha, you young people meet at midnight, and I, an outsider, won't bother."

An inky black voice rang out from another part of the courtyard.

Soon, some of the surrounding Mo family members were evacuated, not disturbing this lonely man and widow, and meeting late at night.

Shen Qiu jumped up, landed on the eaves, uncovered the tiles, and looked down.

I saw Yaoqin sitting in the room, with no one around and no veil, and she seemed to be a little anxious and irritable at this time.

She was much thinner than Shen Qiu remembered.

The face is also depressed, and I see a pitiful temperament.

It's probably these days, and it's not very good, and today's attack on the Qintai made her a little out of shape.

Shen Qiu made up his mind, so he quietly swept off the roof and jumped into the room through the open window, he wanted to have a secret conversation with Yaoqin and ask about the Holy Fire Sect.

It's best not to alarm others.

But when Shen Qiu entered the room, he was stunned.

Yaoqin, who was sitting in the room a moment ago, has disappeared.

"Wow"

There was a sword roar, and the sharp blade silently pressed against Shen Qiu's neck from behind, and there was a slightly resistant voice from Yaoqin:

"Didn't I let you come? Shen Qiu, why do you have to be so stubborn! ”

Shen Qiu stood in the room, as if he was really frightened by the blade against his shoulder.

There was no answer, and there was no action.

Yaoqin was about to say more, when she heard a hoarse chuckle, and suddenly felt the cold air coming to her face, which made her sword holding a little slower.

Immediately afterward, a sharp pain rushed from her wrist, causing her to let go of the sword in her hand.

She also tried to escape with a lifting.

But before he could use it, he was pushed to the wall by Shen Qiu in the whirlwind of the sky.

The latter's arm was pressed against Yaoqin's neck, his left hand clasped her wrist, leaned forward, and almost the whole person pressed on her, and the cold air flowed so hard that she couldn't move a finger at all.

"Huh?"

Shen Qiu looked at the face in front of him that could be broken but full of pain.

He was also puzzled at this time.

He said:

"You really don't know martial arts? But what about that delicate move? ”

"You! You let go of me! ”

A hint of shame flashed in Yaoqin's big eyes.

After Shen Qiu let go of her, she rubbed her wrist that was about to break off in pain, and she already had bruises, turned around, and said in a cold voice:

"When I don't see Qingqing, it shows my attitude.

I don't want to have anything to do with you anymore.

I thank you for your aid today, but let's go, Shen Qiu! Stealing into a woman's boudoir at night, when did you become such a prodigal? ”

"Don't want to have anything to do with it anymore?"

Shen Qiu savored these words, ignoring Yaoqin's cold resistance.

He narrowed his eyes, looked at Yaoqin with his back to him, and asked:

"I know that Yaoqin has always disliked the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and it is understandable that you dislike me, but why did Fei break off the relationship with Qingqing? That girl looks at you like a sister.

She really treats you like a relative.

Unless Shen is blind and can't see that you and her are also sisters.

Why do you have to do that?

And the matter of the Holy Fire Sect, they are coming for you, Yaoqin, you have to make this clear to me! ”

"I'm scared, okay?"

Yaoqin's tone was a little more indifferent, and she said:

"Qingqing's background is secret, and I have a heart to protect her before.

But the Battle of Suzhou destroyed my piano platform, and when I returned from Liangguang, I was afraid, and I didn't want to cause more trouble for me because of her.

I'm different from you, I'm just an ordinary woman from a good family.

If I get into trouble again, how can I resist?

Hurry up and take Qingqing away, Shen Qiu.

Let's not meet again.

As for the Holy Fire Cult, it is my business, and you should not get involved, lest you lose your lives in vain. ”

Shen Qiu's face was strange.

This Yaoqin's acting skills are too bad, doesn't it mean that women are born actors?

Those shaking shoulders, isn't it...

Crying?

Before coming, he also wondered if Yaoqin was really coerced as Qingqing said.

Now it seems that the young girl should have guessed correctly.

She didn't see Qingqing, it wasn't that Yaoqin thought so, probably because there was something unspeakable.

"Really?"

Shen Qiu walked to the window, he turned around and asked:

"In that case, Shen will ask you one last time, Yaoqin, do you really want to break off with Qingqingen?

If you think so, I won't dwell on it anymore.

This will take Qingqing to Luoyang, and if you don't return to Suzhou in the future, it can be regarded as fulfilling your wish to live quietly, okay? ”

On Yaoqin's side, when she heard Shen Qiu's words, her heart was like a knife.

Qingqing has affection for her, how can she be ruthless to Qingqing?

After all, they grew up together, and in this piano stage, Qingqing and her have the same heart, so they give up their sister and never see each other again, which is also heart-wrenching for Yaoqin.

But thinking of what the Fan family guardian said to her a few months ago, her heart was sad, this world is so big, and she will be the only one who will suffer in the future.

She finally bit her lip, endured the pain in her heart, and for the sake of Qingqing and Shen Qiu's safety, she was ruthless and said:

"Yes!"

The voice was a little trembling.

She said:

"Ben's severance is... Don't come and pester me again. ”
