During dinner, when asked about several seniors in Taohuajian, Xu Shaolin had already sent a letter back to Taohuajian and would attend the old lady's birthday. Gu Qingyan joked to herself: "Only grandma can make my parents worry about them." I've long been forgotten. ”

After speaking, he didn't forget to hug himself gently. Everyone chuckled, finished their dinner in a relaxed atmosphere, and everyone dispersed, and Gu Qingyan took advantage of the wind to go out of the front hall first.

There is a three-story attic in Qingquan Villa, the third floor just overlooks the scenery in the distance, and if you look carefully, there are still dotted lights, Gu Qingyan is sitting at the fence at this time, leaning on a column with his back, and his feet on the platform, just sitting quietly.

Suddenly feeling a familiar aura wafting by, Gu Qingyan didn't turn around, but asked faintly, "Why is the third brother here?" ”

Baili Mo walked to Gu Qingyan and sat down, and also looked into the distance: "The scenery here is still so good." ”

When they were children, they would also come to Qingquan Villa, which used to be a place for Hanyan to practice martial arts and learn, and as soon as they came, it naturally became a place for them to play, Gu Qingyan especially liked the third floor, she said that it was very high, and she could see far away, and maybe she could see the people she wanted to see.

Gu Qingyan still misses her father, she used to mention it occasionally, but later it got bigger and bigger, so she stopped mentioning it.

"You girl, I don't know what you're thinking?" Baili Mo touched Gu Qingyan's head, he sometimes admires Gu Uncle and them, Gu Qingyan suddenly proposed to go to Shimen after recuperating from his injuries for a year, they were approved, after three years Gu Qingyan came out of Shimen, these two saw that the girl grew up and said that since then Shimen has returned to Gu Qingyan, the two flicked their sleeves and traveled around the mountains and waters, and at the end of the year, they came back on Chinese New Year's Eve or the year-end inventory of Peach Blossom Stream, and Gu Qingyan was stocked in this way.

Gu Qingyan turned her head and looked at Bailimo, among the three brothers, everyone understands her very well, but Xu Shaolin and Zong Yue will always have the feeling of being like a brother and a father, although they can give Gu Qingyan enough security, Gu Qingyan can't completely tell them, and Bailimo is different, she and Bailimo have been together from childhood to adulthood, and they will always get along more naturally, Gu Qingyan pulled Bailimo's sleeve and said, "You say, will my father and mother miss me too?" ”

Baili Mo smiled, this girl, no matter how old she is, always retains a little childishness, as long as she is not needed for something, she is like a child, still naïve: "Of course she will." ”

"I know that my mother has always longed for that kind of free and leisurely life, where her identity once trapped her in the first half of her life, and later since she took off her identity, how could Peach Blossom Stream keep her." After a pause, Gu Qingyan suddenly smiled, "What's more, Daddy spoils her so much." ”

In Gu Qingyan's eyes, her mother will always have a original intention, pure and pure, and his father will protect this original intention well. Gu Qingyan knows that they are a family, but they don't necessarily have to be together, as long as she is well, her father and mother are fine.

She and her mother said that it was a mother and daughter rather than a good friend, since she was a child, her mother taught her a set of survival skills and principles, she wrote down.

She will miss them, but she will not keep them, just like that day when she stood in front of her father and mother with her hair scattered, her eyes full of determination: "I want to enter the stone gate." ”

Gu Ning didn't seem surprised by her decision, like asking through the motions: "Why?" ”

Gu Qingyan stroked her hair and said, "Whether it's my father, mother, master, three elder brothers or Beiming, there will always be a moment when you are not by my side, if I can't protect myself, then I can only wait for death?" ”

She saw her weakness from that fire, her parents and master were not around, Beiming pulled her with her small body to lead her out of the fire, the guards desperately resisted the invading night people, and she seemed to be a burden, she didn't want to be like that.

Emperor Yunluan looked at his daughter in front of him, held her in his arms and said, "Do you know that Shimen's experience is not only martial arts, but also mental path. Although you will get along very well, but in every trial, the winner will live, and the loser will die, and the bystanders must not be sad or happy. ”

Shimen is a place that is both affectionate and ruthless, yes, as a shadow, you have to be able to cooperate tacitly but at the same time you have to be ruthless and cold-blooded so as not to be disturbed.

Gu Qingyan nodded: "I'm not afraid." ”

Yun Luan smiled and touched Gu Qingyan's head: "Good boy, my father didn't mistake you." Although we have brought you into this world, it is up to you to choose how you want to live. In the past, my mother did not have the right to choose, but now, you have. ”

Yun Luan looked at the little little dot in front of him, although there was a faint reluctance in his heart, who didn't want the family to be together all the time, but they were not destined to be such a mode of getting along, and some love didn't have to be together to be reflected, "Daddy will not interfere with all your choices, but as a result, you have to bear it yourself, Daddy is your final destination, we will not abandon you, we will not leave you, but you have to learn to be alone." Because we will guard you from afar, and everything you can see will have our breath. ”

After that day, Gu Qingyan walked into the stone gate, there will be four days a month to get together with Gu Ning and them, and they will also get together during the New Year's holidays, and they also experienced the challenge of trials in the stone gate, defeating their opponents one by one, watching the partners who tried together fall behind one by one, and finally appeared on the other side of the stone gate formation with an injury, she came out of the stone gate, her eyes were still firm at that time, the difference is that she learned to put away the innocence in her heart and face the world with coldness.

It was Gu Ning and Yun Luan who picked up Gu Qingyan that day, and when they saw Gu Qingyan's figure appear, they laughed, and Gu Qingyan also smiled. On that day, Gu Ning handed over the command ring of Shimen to Gu Qingyan, and three days later, Gu Ning and Yun Luan left Peach Blossom Stream.

Gu Qingyan has accompanied her through all the difficult years in silent accompaniment, and they believe that Gu Qingyan can do it the rest of the way.

Baili Mo sat quietly with Gu Qingyan like this, he was thinking that Gu Qingyan was actually no different from many girls, but she was more casual and casual than them, Gu Qingyan had too many faces, well-behaved in front of the elders, eccentric in front of the three of them, and cold in front of business, each of them was really her.

It's just that she has a lot of things on her mind since she was a child, and she doesn't take the initiative to tell people, so they accompany her quietly. Wait for her to figure it out for herself, if she really hasn't figured it out, there will be a few of them useful.

"What is the third brother thinking?" Gu Qingyan saw that Baili Mo didn't answer her words, so she asked rhetorically.

Baili Mo smiled and said, "I was wondering what kind of existence you are. ”

Looking at Gu Qingyan jokingly while talking, Gu Qingyan always felt that his words were weird, and then saw his joking eyes, he felt that he was being teased, so he wanted to get up and plot against Bailimo, but Bailimo had already taken precautions and escaped a catastrophe, which aroused Gu Qingyan's competitiveness, chasing Bailimo was a posture of fighting, Bailimo got up and ran, Gu Qingyan chased behind, for a while the third floor of the attic was fighting, Bailimo jumped downstairs, Gu Qingyan was not afraid of anyone and followed, and the two of them chased after me.

Until they arrived in the backyard, Han Yan, Xu Shaolin, Zong Yue and Su Tanxue were sitting in the gazebo chatting, Xu Shaolin felt that someone was there, looked at Han Yan, and didn't care.

After a while, Su Tanxue heard the sound of a fight, and wanted to see what was wrong, so she heard Zong Yue say: "Girl rest assured, it's the unconscious girl in my family who is fighting with the third child." ”

Su Tanxue looked confused, she hadn't seen the girl's family fight with the man, she was a little curious on the one hand, and suppressed it on the other, Hanyan was used to it, anyway, there was no one else in this backyard, so let them toss.

Gu Qingyan's martial arts and energy are a few points behind, this will make his son feel tired, so he withdrew his hand, went to the pavilion, and said angrily as he walked: "Big brother, you don't help me." ”

Although Zong Yue can fight, he can fight, but Zong Yue doesn't like to fight very much. Therefore, Gu Qingyan rarely asked Zong Yue for help, and when he wanted help, he only looked for Xu Shaolin.

Xu Shaolin said: "Don't you have Beiming here?" "Having said that, Beiming, as a ghost, can't make a move on the master, how can he help.

Gu Qingyan walked in front of Xu Shaolin and was about to speak, but was stopped by Xu Shaolin: "You should also look like a girl." ”

After speaking, he didn't forget to hand Gu Qingyan a cup of tea, Gu Qingyan took the tea, and he didn't have anything to say for a while, and sat down with a mutter: "It's a pity, my father and mother didn't think about raising me in the direction of everyone's girlfriends." ”

Bai Limo also came over and sat down at this time, looked at Gu Qingyan proudly, and asked the others: "What are you talking about here?" ”

Han Yan continued: "Tomorrow I plan to go to the city, although most of the things for the birthday are for the people below to buy, but some I still have to go by myself." ”

Zong Yue said: "That's right, let's go together, you let us come in advance, isn't it just to help." ”

Han Yan said: "Then Han Mou wants to thank the three masters?" ”

Xu Shaolin waved his hand: "Don't be, it's better not to thank the young owner, otherwise I'm afraid that there will be more than one help." ”

A few people joked back and forth, nothing happened to the two girls, Gu Qingyan saw that Su Tanxue had been just looking at them and laughing, and without saying anything, she quietly went to Su Tanxue's side, and said to her: "Does Miss Tanxue have any arrangements for tomorrow?" ”

Su Tanxue saw Gu Qingyan talking to her, so she replied: "Miss Qingyan just asked me to explore the snow, tomorrow the master of Hualinzhuang will send grandma's birthday clothes up, I want to go over to take a look, and then accompany grandma to paint for a while." ”

After Su Tanxue finished speaking, she wanted to invite Gu Qingyan to join her, but she was afraid that Gu Qingyan would not agree, but Gu Qingyan said: "Although I can't paint, I heard that my grandmother has also mentioned your paintings several times, can I take a look at them together?" By the way, you can just call me Qingyan. ”

At this moment, the two girls made an appointment for tomorrow, and Su Tanxue was also a little less restrained because of Gu Qingyan's active approach, and asked: "But I heard that the people in the village called you the fourth girl." ”

Gu Qingyan has so many titles, close people call her girl, elders call her Qingyan or Yan'er, the people who follow her call her master, other people next to her call her the fourth girl, and there is another person who directly calls her full name Gu Qingyan, and that person is Hanyan.

"Qingyan, she is the youngest of my children, and the others will call in order." Xu Shaolin explained.

Han Yan added a sentence next to him: "Tanxue, you can call her Gu Qingyan directly." ”

Gu Qingyan glanced at Han Yan coldly and said, "You guys talk about yours, what kind of fun." You are the only one who dares to call this girl's full name. ”

Gu Qingyan gritted her teeth, if she could kill Han Yan, she would have done it a long time ago. Seeing that the night was getting deeper, Gu Qingyan and Su Tanxue made an appointment to go to their grandmother tomorrow and then go back to the house separately. The men had made an appointment to go into the city early tomorrow morning, and they all dispersed.

The backyard was quiet, and all I could hear was the wind blowing, the leaves rustling, and then the leaves began to fall......
