18. Shen Qiu in Qingqing's heart
After a few days, the cargo ship chartered by Shen Qiu has entered the territory of Hubei, and the cargo ship outline said that it will arrive at Yueyang Wharf tomorrow afternoon.
They disembarked there, changed to the land route, and quickly rode the horses, and in three to five days, they could reach Changsha.
The dart road was smooth, but Shen Qiu's heart was not calm.
In the past few days, he has been laughing and playing with Qingqing girl as usual, and he has no temper at all.
It's just that Qingqing is indeed as he said, hiding in the cabin and writing something, Xiao Tie also came to ask, and was prevaricated by Shen Qiu with a few words.
That night, thinking to himself, he walked out of the cabin.
At this time, the bright moon is in the sky, the moon shadow is reflected on the river, like a big white jade disc, this waterway is quite prosperous, Shen Qiu stood on the deck of the stern of the cargo ship, in the unclear night, he could vaguely see a few fires.
It was supposed to be a man sailing at night, with lanterns and torches hanging around the boat.
He sat on the box at the stern of the boat, his mood was calm, and he let the true qi in his body run along the meridians, but this little Zhou Tian, where the true qi was running, was no longer the cycle of the heart of the rivers and lakes.
After practicing the Five Elements Gate Fish Intestine Gong, the true qi dissolved in the blood became more condensed and circulated faster within a few days.
It reopens more acupuncture points when it flows in the body, mainly in the legs, waist, and arms, and those acupuncture points that cannot be taken care of with the Jianghu Mental Method have also been washed away one by one in these days.
These hidden ** positions were washed away, coupled with the effect of the warmth of the true qi at all times, it made Shen Qiu walk faster, his movements were lighter and more flexible, his muscles became tighter, and his nerves reacted faster.
Every time the true qi of the fish intestine gong turns back to the heart, it will also divide a part to warm the heart, which is a magical effect that the Jianghu heart method does not have.
When the heart is warmed, it beats more powerfully.
It can withstand the flow of blood at a higher speed during fierce battles, which also makes Shen Qiu's breath longer.
This was just the beginning of cultivation, and if it was a few more months, the true qi in Shen Qiu's body would undergo a qualitative change.
The internal strength and true qi in this world are really magical, and every time Shen Qiu completes a small week, he can feel that part of the potential in his body will be released.
He couldn't help but think that if he could have an adventure in the future, he would flush away all the acupuncture points in his body, so that the small Zhou Tian circulation of true qi would be transformed into a big Zhou Tian cycle.
Exploring the so-called innate realm, his life form may change as a result.
The potential in the body is fully tapped and released.
Every part of the body is nourished by true warmth, washing, making it tough and endless.
The root bone is strong, and the cells in the body that have a limit of the number of times they divide are reactivated, and they can divide more times.
The vitality will be like a brilliant burning flame, and the limit of the human lifespan will also be broken through by this internal change, and prolonging life is the most basic.
Maybe even the impossible things like rejuvenating and rejuvenating the dead wood in spring can be done.
A martial artist who has really reached that realm is afraid that he is already "inhuman".
"This is only the primary realm of fish intestine gong, and it can turn decay into magic."
After Shen Qiu finished his trip to the True Qi, he patted his more powerful thighs and whispered to the sparkling river in front of him:
"It's really hard to see the wonder of the best exercises in the rivers and lakes.
The secrets in the martial arts of this world are really fascinating. ”
He patted the railing, sighed for a moment, and saw that the night was dark, so he grabbed the Hongming knife in his hand and wanted to go back to the cabin, planning to practice martial arts in his dreams tonight.
The Phantom Footwork and the Absolute Shadow Seven Killing Technique were also just beginners, and Shen Qiu had to rely on non-stop actual combat to allow himself to master these two stunts as quickly as possible.
And the object of the training in the dream is naturally the Yi Ke dart head.
His one-handed life-killing fast sword is quite fierce, and he is a member of the rivers and lakes, and he has his own courage, although he is not the opponent of Shen Qiu, who is now like a tiger, but it is very perfect as a sandbag.
It was the best opponent for Shen Qiu to practice martial arts.
It's just that Shen Qiu just took a few steps, and a figure flashed out of the oblique stab, and when Shen Qiu turned around, he already had an extra flying knife in his hand, but he didn't throw it out.
Because the one who comes is Qingqing.
She was dressed in the coarse cloth clothes she had been walking in the rivers and lakes, and she held two pieces of letter paper in her hand, which were densely written with words.
She looked at Shen Qiu with big eyes, and coughed lightly a few times in a pretended manner, looking full of vitality again, and pretending to be steady.
She said to Shen Qiu seriously:
"Senior brother, I'm going to say these things to you when I've written them."
"Hmm."
Shen Qiu nodded, with a gentle smile, and pointed to the box in front of him.
He sat down by the box with a knife in hand.
Qingqing walked over and sat beside him, she peeked at her senior brother's smiling face, and then put her eyes on the paper in her hand again.
She said:
"I talked to Sister Yaoqin that day, and Sister Yaoqin told me that the two of us should take this opportunity to untie the knot in each other's hearts."
"Who said I had a knot? It's all your girl's thoughts. ”
Shen Qiu let out a nasal voice arrogantly.
"Hehe, even if I'm thinking nonsense, are you really angry, senior brother?"
Qingqing tilted his head to look at him, Shen Qiu stretched out his hand and knocked on Qingqing's forehead, seeing the girl holding her head and pretending to be in pain, he smiled and said:
"I'm not angry, I'm a little girl with you, what's there to be angry about."
"You're a liar!"
Qingqing snorted, and she said:
"You're just still angry, I can feel it, I really shouldn't have said those things that day, but I wrote everything you asked me to write."
The little junior sister sighed, she took a deep breath, picked up the letter in her hand, and read softly:
"The first time I felt like you were different from before was when we were hunted down by those black-clad dog thieves.
On a rainy night in Taihang Mountain, you were slashed and fell unconscious.
I took you all the way to the edge of the cliff, and I was very scared, it was you who suddenly woke up, said some strange things, saved the two of us, and said something about gravitational acceleration calculations and so on. ”
Qingqing looked at the "memoirs" she had written in the past few days, and she read:
"Then you were different, the senior brother in my memory was a wooden person, and he rarely looked so smart. But I didn't feel anything wrong at the time.
Looking back now, when I was in the cave, I sensed your strangeness to me.
Later, when I met Cha Bao, you asked me to run quickly, and your analysis and conclusion of Cha Bao made me feel as if you were the senior brother in my memory who suddenly opened the spiritual aperture. ”
Qingqing thought of this, and Shen Qiu's expression changed slightly.
He had an urge to stop the clever girl from talking.
But in the end, he didn't reach out.
Since I want to solve this hidden danger that may exist in the future, I will solve it all at once tonight.
Shen Qiu looked at the sparkling river in front of him, his heart was not chaotic, the worst result was nothing more than his secret being discovered, and he had to part ways with Qingqing.
With the protection of the Falling Moon Merchant and Yaoqin, it is not a problem for this girl to grow up.
Maybe without herself, she can live a more relaxed life.
After all, he has been in trouble since he entered this world.
"I was scared."
Qingqing said softly with a nostalgic tone:
"Without Master, you led Cha Bao away again, and I was trapped in the forest by the thieves of the Black Guard, and I almost died.
If it weren't for the mountain ghost brother who arrived in time, I might never see you again, let alone return to Suzhou. I begged the mountain ghost to save you, and he did save you.
Later, when I went to the cave, I saw Cha Bao who was killed by you, and at that time, I felt that my senior brother had really changed. ”
Qingqing snorted, and she said:
"The Senior Brother Shen Qiu in my memory would never have done such a thing.
You went with the mountain ghost brother to kill the thieves of the Northern Dynasty, and in the few days I was alone on the hillside, I also kept wondering if you were really possessed by the ghost of Taihang Mountain.
You said you had lost your soul and couldn't remember what had happened.
But after returning to Suzhou, I secretly asked Su Guan Shi, who was proficient in medical science, and he told me that soul loss disease does make people lose their memory, but it is difficult to completely change people's habits. ”
Speaking of this, Qingqing secretly turned her head to look at Shen Qiu.
She pursed her lips and folded the paper in her hand, she took a deep breath, stood up, and stood in front of Shen Qiu's eyes.
Qingqing said seriously:
"Perhaps, Senior Brother has really died in that rainy night chase. When you wake up that day, you're already a different person. ”
Shen Qiu's hands would tremble a little.
Qingqing found evidence from her memory, but she didn't expect this girl to really restore the whole picture of the matter, and now that she thinks about it, when she first came over, her disguised performance was indeed a little clumsy.
But that's not to blame him, he didn't come from an acting major after all.
Shen Qiu had the urge to pull out the road and run away.
If you just jump into the river in front of you now, with your own body and breath-holding skills, you can probably swim to the shore before you drown, right?
He thought about it wildly, and then he felt Qingqing's hand on his.
The girl's hands were a little cold and a little trembling, just like him.
"When you left Suzhou and went to inspect other firms, I thought a lot about it in the dart bureau, and I also wrote to ask my brother about the mountain ghost."
Qingqing Says:
"He wrote back to tell me that you said something when you killed the bullying Dutong.
And this time I was kidnapped by the demons of the Five Elements Gate, and I was also scared, just like I was in Taihang Mountain that day, but I didn't despair.
I kept telling Xiao Tie that my brother would definitely come to save me.
Senior brother is really here.
I saw that you were covered in blood, and I saw you rushing all the way to save me, just like when we were in Taihang Mountain.
You love me, and we've worshipped together, and it's not a child's game. ”
Qingqing stretched out her hand and held Shen Qiu's face, she raised Shen Qiu's head, looked at those somewhat evasive eyes, and said to Shen Qiu:
"I actually can't remember how stupid and cowardly my senior brother used to be.
In Qingqing's heart, it seems that the senior brother has always been like this.
When I'm most scared, you're always there for me.
Just like Master, it gives me a lot of peace of mind. ”
"Wow"
Qingqing threw the two pages of letter paper in his hand behind him, and the paper swayed on the river, and finally fell into the water, and disappeared after being rolled by the current.
It's like a big stone in my heart falling, smashing a wave in my heart.
The waves splashed and then disappeared.
"Master is gone, only Senior Brother and I are left."
"So, the senior brother is the senior brother, he opened his mind in Taihang, and became the excellent disciple that the master has always wanted, the good senior brother I have always wanted, and the brother that the mountain ghost brother wants."
Qingqing grinned brightly.
Under the light of the torches planted around the ship, tears flashed in her eyes, and she grabbed Shen Qiu's hand and said:
"I'm not going to talk about these things again.
Senior brother, don't be angry, okay? ”
She stretched out her little thumb, put it in front of Shen Qiu's eyes, and shook it.
She blinked her eyes and said to Shen Qiu:
"Pull a tick."
Shen Qiu looked at Qingqing's trembling little finger, he didn't hesitate, he reached out and grabbed the little thumb, shook it back and forth, and then reached out and put it on Qingqing's head and rubbed it vigorously.
Messed up the girl's hair.
He said:
"Fan Qingqing, how nice it would be if you were a fool... I'm really not angry. But I know that there are some things that are not weighed, not two or two, but if they are weighed, I am afraid that they are more than a thousand catties.
I'm asking you to write this down to save the idea of solving this matter early.
I didn't have such a good sister by my side in the past, and I didn't want to end up parting ways because of these things.
But you gave me a big surprise tonight, you took me into this world, and you are still leading me forward. ”
Shen Qiu stretched out his hand and hugged Qingqing into his arms, in this river and lake, this was already a very intimate move, but Qingqing did not refuse.
He patted Qingqing on the shoulder, and he said:
"I'm Shen Qiu, don't lie to you, I'm really called Shen Qiu.
You can trust me, girl, I will never hurt you no matter what I become in the future, I swore to something horrible about it. ”
"What oath?"
Qingqing wiped her tears as she sat back down beside her senior brother, and she pouted and said:
"You swear again, there is a god on your head."
"Isn't that to save you stupid girl?"
Shen Qiu leaned on the rocking boat, he lifted Erlang's legs extremely relaxed, holding the Hongming knife, and said to the girl beside him:
"And, Qingqing, I'm always afraid that the more I adapt to the present, the more I'll forget the past in my hometown.
You have to promise me one thing, Qingqing, when I am immersed in this dangerous and mysterious world, when I am addicted to something, I am confused, and I can't extricate myself in the end, you must remember to remind me. ”
Shen Qiu closed his eyes and said:
"I'm a foreigner, and although I go through the rivers and lakes, I don't have to be bound by those local rules.
It doesn't matter if you don't understand, you'll understand it later.
I'd like to tell you more, but forget it, it's late at night, go to sleep. ”
Shen Qiu drove Qingqing away in a soft voice, coaxed the girl to sleep, and returned to the side of the boat by himself, looking at the surging river in the moonlight in front of him.
At that moment just now, he really wanted to tell Qingqing girl about his past.
But in the end, I held back.
Tangled past, don't disturb others.
Those gorgeous but distant pasts, those memories of the old home, just stay in your heart, buried in a corner.
Just like the Shen Qiu in Qingqing's heart, he was slowly eroded by time.
Eventually forgotten.
