Chapter Seventy-Six (Li Li's Branch)
After wandering aimlessly outside until nightfall, Li Li returned to the Fengrui camp.
Outside the stone formation outside the Fengrui camp, Xue Yue had been standing on the road to enter the camp and waiting for a long time. Although her complexion was as usual, if you look closely, you can still find a trace of anxiety in her indifferent expression. It wasn't until his figure appeared that her eyes lit up, and her whole person relaxed, and she took a few steps to meet her. But as soon as she approached him, she sensed the exhaustion and frustration he couldn't hide.
For a moment, it was like a fish in the throat. Who else could make him so slack? I don't know whether to mourn her indisputability or complain about her inattentiveness, her eyes darkened, and a slight sourness rose from her heart.
Li Li was originally sad, but when he saw Xue Yue at this moment, his mood eased a little, and his voice was no longer so depressed.
"You've been waiting a long time?" He asked, with a hint of hidden emotion in his tone.
But seeing that his expression softened, Xue Yue only hummed in a low voice and responded, "I'm just...... It's just that I saw that you had been gone for a long time, and I was afraid that you would have an accident, so I asked you to come and find out at night. Unexpectedly, before she could reply to me, you would have already returned. She raised her head again, but her face couldn't hide some scarlet, and she wanted to change the topic, so she led him to a hidden place and urged softly, "...... Tell me quickly, but there are any clues to be found. ”
Li Li didn't notice her little mood, only shook his head and said: "I followed Bai Coral all the way, and I saw her connecting with a woman in the dense forest, listening to their words, it seems that Ren Qingmei has a connection with some force outside the Heavenly King Gang. ”
Xue Yue frowned: "Could it be other forces of the Lingyue Dynasty?" And you will tell me word by word. Li Li shared the message with her.
After Xue Yue heard this, his expression became more puzzled: "Both of them mentioned a righteous brother, what is the identity of this righteous brother, and it may become a key to bring down Ren Qingmei." Have you continued to stalk White Coral or her sister? ”
Hearing Xue Yue mention this, Li Li remembered the plot after that, and his face was ashamed: "...... Not...... I met Little Leaf...... I didn't keep going. ”
Sure enough, it was as she expected. Xue Yue's face was cold, and he didn't speak.
was already in a bad mood, Li Li saw that her face was pale, and she was also upset and irritable, so she found a stone and sat in the corner, silent.
Xue Yue saw that he didn't speak, didn't accept it, and didn't explain, and his heart was bitter. She stood up, took out a thin silk book from her sleeve, threw it in front of him, and then turned around with a cold face and entered the Fengrui camp.
She was angry, and her hands were inevitably stronger. As soon as the volume was thrown out, it flew to Li Li's feet. Li Li lowered his head and saw clearly that on the cover of this silk album were clearly written three hairpin small block letters-"Yingxue Jue".
Reflecting the snow? I remember that Xue Yue once said that her family's ancestral internal strength and mental method seem to be called Yingxue. With a thought, he picked up the book and flipped through it by the starlight. It turned out that Xue Yue knew that although his internal strength was strong, he lacked knowledge of the method of cultivation and guidance, and he could not use his internal force freely, so he secretly wrote down the key points of his family's internal strength, which became a very detailed note in his hand.
At this moment, Li Li's heart was full of guilt and gratitude. These days, she has been by his side, not saying "hard work", but she can definitely say "never leave and never give up". She was the one who helped him practice martial arts, she was the one who helped him find out the news, and she was the one who gave him advice...... Every day, from the time he wakes up in the morning to the time he goes to bed at night, she always sees the most people in a day. She is not related to him, but she does her best for him. If he has met such a friend in his life, how can he not be moved?
I can't be angry in love, and I can't be angry with her. He clutched the book and hesitated to move to her boudoir.
It was a distance of a few steps, but he was also out of the posture of traveling thousands of miles.
Xue Yue was in the room, and when he heard his footsteps, his heart moved. But as soon as she thought of his attitude just now, she was resentful again, and she only leaned on the bed with her face against the wall, ignoring his knock on the door.
Li Li knocked a few times, and when she saw that she didn't respond, she couldn't hold back her face, so she had to lower her voice: "Yes...... Slept? ”
He waited for a while, and when he saw that she still didn't react, he sighed helplessly: "That...... You rest. I went back. ”
He had just turned around to go back to his room when he heard a squeak coming from behind him. He hurriedly turned around, but saw that the window of the room was wide open, and Xue Yue was standing in front of the window with a cold expression.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Li Li was a little flustered.
Now that I see that she seems to be angry, how can I feel good in my heart? It's just that he has never been good at words, and he can't understand her emotional changes, so he just stood in place, not knowing what to say: "I'm here to ......"
He actually wanted to say something to explain, but when the words came to his mouth, he didn't know where to start, tortured himself for a long time, and finally took a deep breath, walked in front of Xue Yue in a few steps, and said solemnly: "I'm sorry." You can punish me however you want, I'm willing. ”
Xue Yue was a little angry, but he didn't expect him to rush over to apologize, his heart was a little soft, but his mouth was still hard: "...... You're right, what will you be punished? Again...... Who am I, and how dare I punish you? She lowered her head and snorted, her voice lowered, "I...... I don't know ...... you."
Seeing her lower her head, Li Li thought she was going to cry, and she panicked all of a sudden, and she couldn't even speak: "You...... Don't you cry? I...... I won't coax ......" He hurriedly reached out to help her wipe her tears, but he didn't dare to touch her, this half of his hand stretched out and hung in the air, and he didn't want to take it back, so he only suffocated his face and didn't know what to do.
As soon as Xue Yue raised his eyes, he saw his panicked appearance, and his already softened heart instantly turned to pity, and he couldn't help but purse his lips and smile: "...... I really want to give you a mirror for you to look at, look at you, how can there be a little bit of the legendary Mr. Yeli. ”
Seeing her smile, Li Li's heart was originally irritable, but with her smile, it gradually calmed down.
Xue Yue glanced around left and right, and said in a low voice, "...... The wall has ears, so let's go out for a walk. ”
The two walked out of the sharp camp side by side, strolling through the empty wilderness.
Although it was winter, the first snow was fresh and it was not so cold.
Xue Yue walked in the snow, as if he remembered something happy, and even his steps were lighter. Li Li watched her step on the snow back and forth in the snow, like a child, and couldn't help laughing: "Do you like snow very much?" ”
Xue Yue smiled: "Well, my favorite time of the year is when it snows." The snow scene of Cloud City is beautiful, standing on the city tower, looking at the snow, the mountains are covered in silver, and I only feel that everything in the world is clean. When it snows, as long as the war is not tight, uncles and uncles will hold snow kemari tournaments in the city. She looked at Li Li and smiled, "These uncles and uncles are all capable men of Cloud City. Don't look at the usual they are fierce and resolute, invincible. But when it really came time to play, they all became children. We made a storm out of snow and ice, and made balls out of pigskin. Uncle Cheng's Qianfeng Hall and Uncle Ding's Wind Flame Hall formed a team, and Second Uncle Ding's Konghe Hall and Brother Yue's Feiji Hall formed a team. When I was young, I was in charge of playing drums and trumpets for everyone. Watching everyone kick around in the snow, you come and go, regardless of age or age, just desperately trying to fight for a ball. Sometimes when you are in a hurry, you will fight. But after making a fuss, everyone always laughed and then hugged their arms and went to drink. It's interesting. ”
Li Li smiled: "It sounds like your childhood was interesting. Compared to you, my childhood was really ...... It's boring. My dad was away on business all year round and didn't come home easily. As soon as he returned home, he urged me to learn to write and learn arithmetic, so that I could inherit his inheritance in the future. If I can't remember, he's going to beat me up. Whenever this happens, my mother and second mother will always rush out to defend me, and my father will beat me harder. But every time I finished fighting, my father would always ask my mother and second mother to bring me something delicious. I knew that he also hated me for not being a talent, but he also loved me in his heart. Remembering his childhood, his eyes grew red.
Xue Yue approached him and said softly, "Are you willing...... Tell me about it? ”
Li Li nodded, and told her about his past. He just wanted to say a few words concisely, but as soon as he started, he poured beans into a bamboo tube, and he couldn't hold it anymore - from his childhood, his parents, and his teenage playmates, to the slaughter of the village in Nianfei Village, the chance encounter with the land enemy, and the secret of Ren Qingmei, and then to getting acquainted with Xue Yue, joining the Fengrui camp, and finally telling all the things that he was rejected by Xiao Yezi today, without any reservations.
When he finished the last sentence, somehow, it seemed as if he had unloaded a thousand pounds of burden, and he only felt a burst of happiness in his heart.
Xue Yue was listening, and the expression on her face changed with his narration, and it wasn't until she finished listening that she let out a sigh of relief: "No wonder you're so irritable today, it turns out to be ......" She pondered for a moment and said softly, "Don't be too sad." Although I don't know Miss Chang very well, I can also see that she is a person of great affection. I believe that in her heart, she still regards you as her beloved, and she will not change until death. It's just that this love is not the love of men and women, but the love of relatives. He ...... day by day" She turned her head away, her face flushed, "Fate has its own certainty, if you fall out of love today, he may not be able to find a good match one day." ”
Hearing her soft words of comfort, Li Li was moved in her heart and said in a deep voice: "Thank you." I have a deep hatred of blood, and I can't protect myself, where do I still have the heart to ask for any good fate. Just ask me to get revenge as soon as possible, and I will die without regrets. ”
Xue Yue saw that what he said was reasonable, so he didn't continue to comfort him. She thought about it for a long time, and then thought of something: "The Yingxue recipe I gave you was compiled by myself according to my family's spiritual practice tips. But since it is said that your whole body strength comes from the land enemy, the Lu Heavenly King...... The martial arts of the Fengrui Battalion are extraordinary, and although my family's Yingxue Technique is powerful, the number of paths is different, and it may not be completely applicable. If you really want to make up for the lack of martial arts in your body, it is best to practice the original mental method of the Fengrui Camp, which will definitely be more effective with half the effort than learning Yingxue Jue alone. ”
Li Li snorted: "I also understand, but ...... The Fengrui camp is under the jurisdiction of Gao Lan, and now that he is afraid of me, how can he teach me the exclusive mental method. ”
Xue Yue bit her lip and pondered, "...... I remember that my father once told me that on the fifth layer of the Fengrui camp, there were countless martial arts classics. The Fengrui Battalion Martial Arts Hall is the place where the whole gang has the deepest and most extensive martial arts research, or it is related to these martial arts classics. These texts must contain the internal strength and mental methods that Lu Tianwang once studied, or they may be available for you to use. It's just that...... Gao Lan moved the Wulu Hall to the third floor, and he himself controlled the martial arts hall on the fourth floor, separated by these two barriers, I was afraid that we would not be able to go up if we broke through. It's best to think of a way to get up there. ”
Li Li suddenly remembered that the last time Yang Yizhao came to Fengrui Camp to look for him, he sneaked in. With his help, he might be able to easily ascend to the fifth floor. But...... He just had a falling out with Xiao Yezi, and Yang Yizhao is Xiao Yezi's ...... He hesitated for a moment, then gave up. Revenge is his own business, he doesn't have a famous teacher to guide the moves, although the cultivation process is slow, but the silent effort is enough. Let him beg Xiao Yezi for this reason, this is a critical moment, and he won't do anything.
The changes in his expression were all taken into Xue Yue's eyes, Xue Yue thought about it, smiled slightly, continued to chat, and did not mention the matter.
A few nights later. Li Li practiced his sword in the practice room of the Shadow Hall as usual. In the dim light, I saw his clothes flying, his figure fluttering, and the sword light in his hand was also ghostly, changing in no way. In the blink of an eye, a set of Divine Intention Scheming Swords had been practiced, Li Li retracted and stood still, put the wind hook back into the scabbard, and was just about to leave, when he suddenly heard a burst of applause from the door of the Shadow Hall.
"Unthinkable, unthinkable. The swordsmanship of the junior brother is really worthy of its reputation, and once he uses the sword, it is really a bit of a merry young man. ”
Does this sound so familiar? Li Li was stunned for a moment, and looked up at a young man wearing the red clothes of the sharp camp, leaning at the door of the practice room, carrying a small red cloth bag on his shoulder, playing with a chicken tongue incense between his lips and teeth, looking at him with a bright smile, and his eyes were full of approval. This man has sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a phoenix and a dragon posture, is not Yang Yizhao, the first beautiful man in the Tianwang Gang, who can he be? I saw a woman slowly walking out behind Yang Yizhao, it was Xue Yue. I saw Xue Yue dressed in a short dress, with the familiar golden silk armor on his hands, and the Heavenly Snow Silence and Purple Blue Tribulation on his waist, obviously he had been prepared.
"Why are you here?" When Li Li saw Yang Yizhao at first glance, she was overjoyed and stepped forward, but she saw Yang Yizhao smiling and squinting at him, and there seemed to be deep meaning in his eyes. Li Li thought of Xiao Yezi at this time, and his face turned red, so he was embarrassed to go further. Seeing this, Yang Yizhao smiled heartily and stepped forward: "Don't worry-I won't talk too much." I was just entrusted by Yue'er to take her around this sharp camp, and it has nothing to do with you Li Li. ”
Only then did Li Li understand that Xue Yue had already found out that he was unwilling to plead with Yang Yizhao, so he contacted him privately. Xue Yue and Yang Yizhao's relationship has been broken, but for his Li Li, Xue Yue still put down the shelf to find Yang Yizhao. With this painstaking effort, how could he not be moved, so he smiled at Xue Yue.
Xue Yue also smiled, and then looked at Yang Yizhao: "I've worked hard for you this time." ”
Yang Yizhao smiled happily: "What's so hard about this. When I was a child, I was also a good friend with Lu Lao, if it weren't for his tolerance, how could I, an outsider, understand the curves of this sharp camp. Lu Lao once taught me some kung fu, and I am also half a master. Since Master has entrusted his life's wish to someone, I can repay Master for his past teachings by making a small effort. Time is running out, come with me. ”
