Chapter 21: The Beast and the Sword

Sunlight came in from the window, sprinkled on the Baili Rong desk, and the exquisitely carved desk placed the four treasures of the room. Ye Xilei took out a sheep's hair from a bamboo and wood pen holder carved with pines and cypresses, and dipped it in ink slightly.

She looked at the white rice paper, was stunned for a while, then rolled up her sleeves, put down the pen, paused, put down the pen again, paused again, her face began to redden, and she took the pen and said to Bailirong aggrievedly: "I...... Can't draw...... "She didn't lie, in addition to the number of techniques, she is also very poor at calligraphy and painting.

She looked at Bailirong pitifully, as if she was afraid that he would make fun of her. However, Bai Lirong took the pen from Ye Xilei and patted her little head comfortingly: "I'll come, you go to my back to trace." ”

"Trace! I will. Ye Xilei immediately moved to Baili Rong's back, but at his back, she began to blush again, this is Su Su's body, how bad it is to touch it with her fingers. She casually looked around and smiled at the feather duster in the bucket.

The feather duster was clasped in her hand, and she shouted to Bailirong: "It's started." ”

Baili Rong's face coiled up all his long hair, and fixed it with the sheep's hair pen in his hand, revealing his entire back, and then took out a few more from the pen holder, and after touching Wolf Hao, he nodded in the direction of Ye Xilei.

Looking at the picture on the entire back, Ye Xilei didn't know where to start, she wrinkled her pretty little face: "But...... Where to start? ”

"It starts with the heart." Bai Lirong said as he measured the drawing paper with his fingers, and then lifted the pen and put it in his heart.

Heart...... Ye Xilei saw the eyes of the beast, which she didn't dare to face the most, she squatted on the carved chair behind Baili Rong without any image, facing the beast, her eyes narrowed, and she suddenly glared at the beast, as if to say who is afraid of whom! So, I poked it with the end of the feather duster.

The tail end of the feather duster was a little rough, and this poke made Baili Rong's body slightly retracted, and the muscles on his back immediately contracted, and he frowned: "Xiaolei, what do you use to trace?" ”

"Feather duster."

The black line of "......" began to fall.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing. Let's go. ”

"Oh."

The feather duster began to paint the eyes of the monster. Slim eyeliner. Sharp eyes like swords. It's like piercing your body. Take your life in an instant. Kill invisibly. But. After looking at each other for a long time. But it reveals a different kind of gentleness. That is hidden in apathy. Atrocious. Bloodthirsty and gentle. When Ye Xilei depicts it in detail. Only from the depths of those eyes. Little by little it flows out. Continuous.

This tenderness enveloped her. This special tenderness infected her. Let her be touched by this deep emotion. Like a beast of prey after slaughter. But he lay unusually meekly beside her. From her earth longs for love and warmth. It makes her heart ache.

At the same time, Bai Lirong had already drawn these eyes on the white scroll, and his hands were synchronized with Ye Xilei's traces, and if people could see them, they would be amazed by his magical talent.

He melted Ye Xilei's movements into his heart, and then drew them from his heart. There is not the slightest delay in between, which shows that his mind is quick, meticulous and precise.

Then, following Ye Xilei's movements, he drew the monster's body, face, and even the delicate and soft hair on the monster's face, and when he finished drawing the single horn on the monster's head, he exclaimed, "Bai Ze! ”

"What?" Ye Xilei poked her head out from behind Baili Rong, Bai Lirong's expression changed slightly, she was still facing the drawing paper, returning to her previous plainness, with a shallow smile on the corner of her lips, and said softly: "It's nothing, Xiaolei, continue." ”

Ye Xilei blinked, glanced at the drawing paper in front of Bailirong, and said lightly: "Oh." And he went back to his place. She looked at the four swords on Bailirong's back for a long time, these four swords, she knew, but she didn't understand, why did these four legendary swords appear behind Bailirong?

Could it be that this whole picture is not a seal, but a treasure map? A map to find the four swords? After the Second Great War of Gods and Demons, these four divine swords disappeared without a trace.

"What's wrong?" Bai Lirong asked softly from the front, and she smiled: "It's nothing." Let's move on. ”

The study returned to silence again, and Ye Xilei began to depict the four legendary swords with a feather duster: the Zhuxian Sword, the Killing Immortal Sword, the Trapping Immortal Sword, and the Absolute Immortal Sword.

Outside the window, the sparrows were chirping and noisy, and Ye Xilei was halfway through the painting, and her attention was attracted by the sparrow's call, her eyes crossed with a touch of surprise, and her expression was a little more angry.

"Little Lei! Don't desert! Bai Lirong's deep voice pulled Ye Xilei's distracted attention back, and she grimaced, and began to trace the four swords while listening to the gossip with her ears tied.

Sparrows are the gossip of birds. Because of its large number, fast reproduction, and strong adaptability, they are everywhere, and naturally, they are also the most informed and fastest.

The four swords gradually formed on Baili Rong's drawing paper, and his hand holding the brush became tighter and tighter, so tight that his green and white bones were exposed, and when he put down the pen, it was not as smooth as Fang Cai, but trembled a little.

The four swords are located on the left and right of the monster, and the monster's tail is raised high, and its claws are forward, almost jumping out of the painting, lifelike, and jumping on the paper!

He stopped his pen and looked at the scroll, which was already engraved in his heart, even if his eyes could not see. When he heard the movement behind him, his face immediately turned to doubt, as if he didn't know what was painted on the painting.

"Wow - exactly the same!" Ye Xilei picked up the picture scroll in surprise, and compared it with the picture behind Baili Rong, her eyes widened and widened, "It's just rubbing, Bai Lirong, you can actually draw!" ”

Bailirong turned his head sideways, turned to Ye Xilei, and said with a light smile: "I understand a little." ”

Ye Xilei looked at the painting, and glanced at Bailirong out of the corner of her eyes: "Then do you know what is on this painting?" ”

Baili Rong frowned: "I don't know, does Xiao Lei know?" But he asked rhetorically.

Ye Xilei pouted: "How did I know, I was imprisoned in the cold palace very early, and I don't know a few big characters." After she finished speaking, she casually threw the scroll back to the desk, put her hands behind her back, and grinned, "Bailirong, this painting is finished, and the hot water is almost cold, you see...... Isn't it time to ......?"

"Little Lei."

"What?"

"Get out."

"Uh...... You have inconvenient eyes, can you really be alone? ”

"If you want to stay, then together."

"Uh...... Then I'd better go. Then you...... Be careful. Don't drown in the tub. ”

“……”

After Ye Xilei went out, Bai Lirong had been standing by the painting, he was listening, listening to Ye Xilei's footsteps; He was feeling, feeling the breath of Ye Xilei. It wasn't until she disappeared completely that he quickly rolled up the painting on the table, stuffed it into a bamboo flower tube, and hurriedly fumbled back to the bedside and tucked it under the pillow.

After that, his movements returned to his previous speed, and he slowly sat down by touching the edge of the bed, as if remembering something, he touched his back, and his sword eyebrows twisted for a moment, and stretched again. He buried his face, put his hands on the look of confusion and pain, and paused on the blindfolded silk cloth for a moment.

He took a long, deep breath, and when he got up again, his expression was as normal as before, calm, indifferent, and unsurprised. Slowly groping, kicking the torn clothes under his feet, he chuckled and shook his head, how many years, he has not been out of control like today. He sighed, touched the edge of the tub, and his body relaxed the moment he lay down in the warm water.

The mystery has not yet been revealed, but he is one step closer to the truth.

Suddenly, he frowned, his beautiful ears moved, and he whispered, "Why is he here again?" That's it, Xiao Lei should know how to measure. ”

Immediately, he showed a shallow smile, which seemed to be happy that he was about to find the past, and seemed to be helpless about Ye Xilei's "lust".
