Chapter 31: Better than Blue

Clear light and dew, bright and refreshing. The moon is full of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it is better to say goodbye to the night.

Zhuang Lin stood quietly aside, listening to the voice of the third junior brother as low as mellow jade, in the voice was the cold young man's seemingly unwavering heart, and in his words was the innocent girl traveling outside the world.

The vivid scenes seemed to emerge before his eyes, the thin figure, chopping wood, cooking food, carrying water, feeding horses, and wielding swords.

After Ying Riyao finished speaking, Zhuang Lin sighed deeply, there was both joy and worry in his eyes, and finally turned into a slight smile on his lips:

"My sister is amazing!"

is obviously the golden branch and jade leaf of the Yan family, and it is obviously the ladies of the Zhuang Mansion, and it is clear that they should be cared for in this life, but ......

Ying Riyao's eyes were as deep as the night, and he looked straight at Zhuang Lin with a tangled expression, in fact, even he didn't expect that Zhuang Duan could do it to this extent and endure such hardships.

But he didn't think she was so great, if everything was chaotic today, Daheng had no way forward, and everyone, including himself, could only choose the most difficult road!

"Second Senior Brother!" Ying Riyao folded the letter and slowly put it into the envelope, Zhuang Lin had a pure heart, and he should be reluctant to travel outside Zhuang Dusk.

Zhuang Lin looked up at Ying Riyao when he heard this, only to see that his expression was the same, but he said, "Don't be sad!" If you suffer hardship, you will become a master, and your sister will definitely break through the wind and waves and return with a full load! ”

Zhuang Lin listened to Ying Riyao's words, and stared at him with some surprise, third junior brother, are you comforting him?

"Third junior brother! What do you ...... think of my sister?"

Zhuang Lin thought about this question, and his heart instantly panicked, so he quickly shook his head and waved away this strange thought!

Ying Riyao took in Zhuang Lin's strange actions in his eyes, but he didn't have any intention of exploring in his heart, so he put the letter aside, picked up his book that was interrupted by Zhuang Lin, and continued to read.

Zhuang Lin raised his willow eyebrows and looked carefully at Ying Riyao, who had no wavering expression, he should not be interested in this matter! Thinking of this, Zhuang Lin relaxed slightly.

"Anything else?" Ying Riyao's eyes did not leave the book, and there was no emotion in his tone.

"That, third junior brother, what my sister said in her letter, don't tell anyone else!" After listening to Ying Riyao's cold words, Rao is Zhuang Lin is big-hearted, and he is also a little timid, but he still can't give less.

"Why do I say that?" Ying Riyao's words contained a clear frost, which made Zhuang Lin tremble, but it also made him regain his spirit. A strange idea pops up to him, if the third junior brother does his own role, will he feel sorry for Twilight?

Well, probably not! This guy is colder than Bingjian......

"Then I'm relieved!" Zhuang Lin looked at the arrogant and domineering Ying Riyao, and couldn't help but say a little proudly: "Hey! I'll go back to rest first, and I have to go home to see my sister on the Shangyuan Festival! ”

You don't have a sister, just watch the moonlight by yourself!

Ying Riyao was stunned when he heard this, this guy from the second senior brother is showing off?

With the sound of the door closing, Zhuang Lin had already left Ying Riyao's study, Ying Riyao's sharp eyes glanced at the cowhide envelope that was placed in the corner of the table, pursed his thin lips lightly, and reached out to pick up the box that was put on the table.

The cowhide envelope and the letter from Yan Dui's previous untold height were tightly folded together, and lay quietly in a certain teenager's study.

——

On the tenth day of October, it is the late autumn of another year. A dandel was blown away by the autumn wind, and one of the small seeds, with fluff, blew under the nose of Yan Dui, who was wielding a sword on the bank of the Yishui River.

"Ahh Twilight sneezed loudly!

Suddenly looked down at her reflection in the clear water, even though she was still a little girl, but after a year, she still grew half a foot taller, and even the clothes she brought at the beginning did not fit.

It turns out that she is a year older again!

Three years have passed since the night of the extinction. Thinking of Yan's family, Yan Duan's small face was full of sadness, and the hand holding the sword tightened by three points!

Now she can only practice her sword desperately, until one day, she can be so strong that she doesn't need to endure, she doesn't need to escape, when facing the enemy, she draws her sword and fights, and uses the enemy's blood to sacrifice the eighty-eight lives of the Yan family!

Mr. Beiguo looked at the figure who was constantly practicing swords, and a trace of distress appeared on his always chic and uninhibited face, and he couldn't even read the treasured book, so he had to slowly put down the book in his hand.

Mei Chuan, who was eating refreshments on the side, suddenly fixed his hand holding the teacup in the air, keenly raised his head to look at her, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Mr. Bei Guo shook his head and exhaled, not knowing where to start.

"It's a little doll's business!" Mei Chuan said, his eyes were clear, the teacup fixed in the air had been sent to his mouth, and he took a leisurely sip of tea.

"Hey!" Mr. Beiguo sighed first, she didn't know the experience of the little apprentice, all her demons, all her wishes, all started with the blood flowing on her body.

This is not the same as herself!

"You know what? When I learned the Yi Shui Sword Technique, I was thirteen years old, and it took me ten years of practice to fully master it. The little apprentice is eleven this year, and after half a year, she can use the first nine styles with both her left and right hands, not because she practices hard, but because she is a genius! ”

Mr. Beiguo picked up a cup of hot tea with his bare hands, sniffed the tea soup, smelled the fragrance of tea, and drank it slowly.

Mei Chuan turned his head to look at Mr. Beiguo when he heard this, Rao is used to seeing the arrogant people in front of him, he has never seen her feel ashamed, and he never thought that she would have a sense of "blue out of blue and better than blue" for Yan Duan, so he said:

"You were still in the palace at that time, and your master would not let you go up the mountain to pick up birds and go into the water to fish, so naturally you are not as good as a little doll."

Mr. Beiguo listened to Mei Chuan's words, although he knew that he was comforting himself, but in fact, she did not feel ashamed, after all, it was all decades of Chen sesame rotten grain. She just looked at the little girl who kept swinging her sword by the river, and she felt it!

Heaven and earth are difficult to calculate, and I don't know when the little apprentice will understand, a lot of heart knots, a jar of old wine can be solved, easy water ten styles, it takes time to understand!

"Actually! I wasn't going to take it for granted! ”

Mr. Bei Guo recalled more than a year ago, when she had just returned from a trip to Fuzhou, Mei Chuan took out Song Qi's letter to her, in which she said that Yan Du was the daughter of Mu Shaolan and Yan Bufu, and she had already heard of Yan's affairs.

It wasn't until she saw what was written in the letter, saying that she would dare to face the assassin on the night of the annihilation. In the human trafficking ship, they can endure for many days. finally got upset, so he rode to Shengjing overnight.

When she saw Yan Du in Zhuangfu, her eyes were depressed at that time, and she never tried to hide her hatred for the enemy in her heart, but she had a little more love for the Zhuang family and more hope for her Mr. Beiguo.

"You said that I am in my forties, and I have been chic for half my life, and I have never had a troubled conscience. When I was in Zhuangfu, I was in the way of the little apprentice, so I thought about it, take her back first, and see what kind of situation I made plans, but I didn't expect this child to be more talented and intelligent than me, and more hard-working than you! ”

Mr. Beiguo remembered all kinds of interesting things about Yan Du in the past year, and his heart gradually relieved: "I can figure it out now, I have received several apprentices, but they are not like me." But the little apprentice is different, this child is the heir of the mantle given to me by God and inherited my mantle, not only the Yishui swordsmanship, but also the Phoenix Butterfly Alliance......"

After speaking, the teacup was empty, Mr. Beiguo slowly put down the teacup, looked at Mei Chuan's unsightly eyes, and then stood up and walked to the river.

——

Yan Duan, who was still practicing swords, silently counted the sword styles in his hands in his heart, and when he reached the tenth style, he turned around and turned his waist, the sword aura was pressing, and sparks splashed everywhere.

Suddenly, there was a ding, I don't know if it came from the sword star, or from Yan Du's heart, and the sword qi was dissipated in an instant, and the surroundings were silent, but Yi Shuihe still didn't know the impatience in the girl's heart, and it was still murmuring.

"The wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man will never return once he is gone." Mr. Bei Guo paced slowly and leisurely, walked behind Yan Dusk, and said quietly: "Little apprentice, have you heard this song? ”

Panting for air, Yan Dui looked up at the master, his impetuous eyes blinked, and his expression became tangled:

"It is rumored that before Jing Ke set off for Qin, Gao gradually left the building to say goodbye, and Jing Ke felt sad and sang 'The wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man will never return'."

Mr. Bei Guo nodded with a smile, and then said: "Jing Ke sang so tragically that the listener looked at him with disgust and raised his fingers. After singing this paragraph, I only heard Jing Ke raise his head and sigh, and a seven-colored rainbow appeared in the sky! ”

Yan Du couldn't guess what Mr. Bei Guo said, and her tangled eyes became puzzled again, so she had to listen to her words quietly and without distraction.

"The wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man is gone. This Yishui swordsmanship, without knowing that there is no going or returning, but resolutely going, and the determination to never look back, cannot understand the last formula! ”

"There is no return...... Yan Du listened to Mr. Beiguo's words into his heart. If there is no return, is it necessary to give up this life? Risking this life that Yan gave her in exchange for blood?

Mr. Bei Guo carefully looked at his little apprentice, a pair of small hands went up the mountain and into the water, holding a sword and chopping wood, it was already full of calluses, but this child never said a bitter word, nor did he shout a tired word.

It should be a person like her who can surpass her Mr. Beiguo!

"Little apprentice, it doesn't matter if you can't practice the tenth form now. If you live deep here, you may not feel it, but in fact, with the first nine forms you have mastered, there are not many people in the world who can rival you! ”

Hearing this, Yan Du looked down at the sword in his hand, now she is a strong person?

"Master, do you have any enemies?" Suddenly a wave swelled on the Yishui River, and the wind of October, accompanied by the words of twilight, sounded faintly in this heaven and earth.

Mr. Bei Guo nodded, his plain white dress was slightly swayed by the wind, and Yan Du looked straight at his master, only to see a shallow smile on her lips, and the beauty mole on her eyebrows was still beautiful.

"Did you kill that man? Use the easy water sword technique? She didn't know what she was asking, and she didn't know what she wanted answers.

"Kill!" Mr. Bei Guo's demeanor is relaxed as usual, looking at the easy water and rolling rivers in the distance, and everything goes away with the wind.

On that day, she killed her enemy, but not with the Yi Shui sword technique, but with the years.

It was also on that day that she accepted a little apprentice, who was better than the blue!
