The morning sun is obliquely reflected, the fallen leaves are fluttering, the movements are light, the sword light is flashing, the moves are complex and changeable, Ling Xiao stood under the eaves and watched Lu Jingxing seriously at each move she demonstrated. Compared to the first time she saw him wielding a sword, this time the speed was obviously much slower, but she still watched dizzyingly. I also feel a burden in my heart

Nervous, for fear of missing a key detail.

"This is the first style of this set of swordsmanship, and there are seven more styles behind, after learning this style, I will show you the next one. Remember to shoot quickly and accurately, be strong, and move neatly, and don't hesitate to drag mud and water. This sunset sword is for you. ”

After Lu Jingxing demonstrated the swordsmanship, he took the night

The sword was lowered and given to Ling Xiao.

The whole body of the sword is silver and white, and the head of the sword is carved with unique lines, just like a green vine winding, but it is not a green vine, delicate and beautiful, and then it is woven jade pendant to hang on it. The handle is round of white jade, with a ruby the size of a fish's eye in the center. The sword grid is engraved with the word "sunset", plus the mountain

The sunset of the river is set against the backdrop. The blade of the sword is extremely sharp, smooth and delicate, with a silver glow. The scabbard is also beautifully carved, with nine gemstones of different sizes on each side in the center. The overall luxury and elegance are not lost, Ling Xiao knew at a glance that this sword was extremely valuable, and it was not inferior to his Lu Li sword.

"This sword is too precious, and I deserve it." Lu Jingxing gave Ling Xiao such a sword, which made Ling Xiao not know how to accept it for a while.

"Take it, it's just a sword, I'll give it anyway. If you feel guilty, just return one more item to me later. This sword is originally used by women, and Lu Fu is now practicing martial arts as a girl, so it's a pity not to use it there. "Lu Jingxing seems to be talking about the Tao, Ling Xiao

When you think about it, it's not right. Although Ling Xiao felt that he owed him a lot, and his reasons were a bit far-fetched, Ling Xiao was decisive about everything, Lu Jingxing said so, and Ling Xiao had to accept it for the time being: "Okay, thank you." ”

"Well, can you show me one more time? I just didn't see it clearly. Ling Xiao said embarrassedly.

"Optimistic." As soon as he finished speaking, the sword swung in his hand again. The figure in the morning light seems to be plated with a layer of phantom gold edges, psychedelic and intoxicating. The clothes are fluttering, and the movements are elegant, as if you are alone and ready to fly.

"You try." After Lu Jingxing's demonstration of the move, Ling Xiao basically remembered it, and Lu Jing walked over and handed her the sword.

The hilt of the sword felt warm and comfortable in his hand, which had a lot to do with its material, and good jade was like this.

Ling Xiao walked into the court, the morning sun sprinkled on her body very softly, but her eyes instinctively narrowed slightly, and everything became hazy and illusory. She recalled every move Lu Jingxing had just demonstrated, and began to try to complete every move, but she felt that she couldn't even hold the sword well, and her movement was also hindered. Luk King Hong Station

After watching it for a while, he finally walked up to her: "Your hands should be like this, raise them a little higher, and your steps should be steady." Lu Jingxing stood behind Ling Xiao and pointed and corrected every movement that was not in place, maybe it was too close, Ling Xiao smelled the breath on his body again, and now he was no longer a stranger, unconsciously

became a familiarity.

It took a full morning for the movements to go from unfamiliar to unfamiliar, and then from unfamiliar to smooth, and Lu Jingxing has been pointing out from the side, so he didn't even eat breakfast. Although Ling Xiao has adapted to sword practice, he is still not very familiar with it, and the speed is as slow as a slow-motion shot in a movie.

"That's all for today." The autumn sun was equally strong, and it was almost noon at the moment, and Lu Jingxing asked Ling Xiao to stop.

In the morning, he may have been really tired from practicing swords, but after lunch, Ling Xiao fell asleep, and he didn't have much energy to write, so he simply stopped writing and lay on the bed to take a nap. As a result, this sleep was not a moment, if it wasn't for Yu Niang to call her at dinner, she really didn't know how long she would sleep.

The blue sky is high and the clouds are white, and Ling Xiao looks at such a sky, and his whole heart is as pure as a mirror.

"How's the rest?" Lu Jingxing was so elegant at the moment, fiddling with flowers and plants in the garden, and without turning around, he knew that it was Ling Xiao who came over.

"It's fine." Ling Xiao watched him repair the flower branches, the autumn chrysanthemums were about to bloom, the autumn breeze was slightly blowing, and a new green was blooming, and I am afraid that in the autumn breeze, only this autumn chrysanthemum was still green and dazzling, and I couldn't see half of the gloom. Tao Yuanming loves chrysanthemums alone, and in order to feel the beauty of the landscape and countryside, even the official capital

You don't have to do it, thinking of this, Ling Xiao couldn't help asking, "Do you like this Qiu Ju very much?" ”

"It's just idle and fiddling. It's also good to use it when it's time to bloom. Lu Jingxing's words made Ling Xiao think of a sentence in "Lisao", so he said it casually: "Drinking Mulan in the morning and dewing in the morning, and falling in the autumn chrysanthemum at night." ”

"You really like pre-Qin poetry." Lu Jingxing said with a smile. In fact, Ling Xiao didn't like it, but except for the things of the pre-Qin dynasty, she couldn't talk nonsense in other dynasties, and it would make people feel very strange if she couldn't explain it clearly, because this was not what happened in the same world.

"Mansion Master, murmuring, dinner is ready, let's eat quickly." Yu Niang walked over.

"Okay." Lu Jingxing closed the scissors in his hand and left the chrysanthemum garden.

"What about Lu Ci?" Ling Xiao asked. On weekdays, the three of them eat together, but today Lu Ci is gone.

"There was another murder last night, which was exactly the same as the one in Yuliu Villa, and Lu resigned to check it." Lu Jingxing said.

That is to say, it was done by one person. It's just that this doesn't have much to do with the Lu Mansion. ”

"In just two or three months, there have been seven or eight murders in a row, which has caused a sensation in the rivers and lakes, and all forces are now investigating."

Lu Jing's words made Ling Xiao startled: "So, how many incidents happened when I was in retreat?" ”

"Well, three of them were destroyed, and two of them were court officials, and they died in the same way as Lord Liuzhuang."

"It seems complicated." Such rivers and lakes made Ling Xiao frightened.

"This time it involves a wide range of people, and once it is involved in the power of the imperial court, it will be even more difficult to deal with. Now that you've stepped into the world, it doesn't hurt to tell you this. Ling Xiao knew Lu Jingxing's intentions, and he wanted her to recognize the sinister nature of the rivers and lakes. Ling Xiao thought that the real murderer behind this murder must not be an idle person, so he did this

There have been many homicides, but none of them have been found.

Ling Xiao practiced sword with the morning sun in the morning, read books and write in the afternoon when he had nothing to do, then meditated and practiced the flute in the evening, and half a month passed like this. She has almost learned the flute, but her swordsmanship has not improved much.

The autumn wind seemed to take away more fallen leaves, Ling Xiao stood in the corridor and looked at the hibiscus trees in the garden, the flowers were in full bloom, and the pink petals were swaying in the wind, just like a little girl carved in pink and jade, eager to be loved by others. Unconsciously, Ling Xiao faintly heard the faint sound of the piano in his ears, the piano

The sound is long and soothing. She followed the direction of the piano sound, and finally arrived outside Lu Jingxing's study. She thought that she had come all the time, and there was no reason not to go in.

Lu Jingxing stroked his hands between the strings, and the soothing sound of the piano wafted out. Ling Xiao sat there and listened without speaking, and Lu Jingxing didn't stop because there was one more person in the room, until the song was finished, he said, "I haven't played it for a long time, and my technique is a little rusty." ”

"You're playing the five-stringed piano, and this is the first time I've heard a song played by the five-stringed piano." The first time Ling Xiao heard about the five-stringed piano was when he was in Jundu, and now he is fortunate enough to hear his music, which is not bad.

"I've heard you play a piece of music, and it's very skillful." Ling Xiao thought that Lu Jingxing said that he had heard her piano sound not long after entering the mansion, because she had indeed played it. As everyone knows, Lu Jingxing had heard it before that, but Ling Xiao had never connected the two things.

"I can only play the lyre, so it should be difficult for me to play the five-stringed instrument." If there are two strings missing, there will be two notes missing, it must be unpleasant to play, Lu Jingxing can do this, Ling Xiao really admires him.

"In fact, there is not much difference between the two, and the production of the qin is that there is a five-stringed instrument first, and then there is a seven-stringed instrument." Lu Jingxing said this calmly.

According to Ling Xiao's understanding of the pre-Qin period, there were only five tones: "Gong", "Shang", "Jiao", "Zheng" and "Yu", and later with the development, there were "Change" and "Change", she thinks the evolution of the qin is probably related to this.

"What about the kite?" Before Ling Xiao touched the qin, the guzheng and the qin were stupid and indistinguishable, and he made jokes about it.

"The kite was produced later, and if you want to learn this, you can do it." The things of the Lu Jing Guild made Ling Xiao very amazed.

"I'm curious." Ling Xiao said with a look of racking his brains.

"What?" Lu Jingxing became interested.

"What do you wouldn't have? How do I feel like you can do anything? Ling Xiao said.

"Not a lot. We are human beings, not immortals, how can everyone know anything? These are just the things that everyone has to know. Lu Jingxing was asked by Ling Xiao's question. However, Ling Xiao felt that what he said was also right, the ancient literati not only needed to be proficient in the six arts, but also needed to be proficient in qin, chess, calligraphy and painting

Pass. Ling Xiao thought that she knew too little, and there was still a lot to learn.

"Then when I learn the flute, can you teach me to play this five-stringed piano?" Ling Xiao said.

"You can learn whenever you want." Lu Jingxing lowered his head slightly and looked at the strings in front of him.

"I've heard the piano too, and I'll go back to practice." Ling Xiao got up and went out, no longer caring about the people behind him.

Ling Xiao has a lot of things to do now, and every day is very fulfilling and busy. In the blink of an eye, it was a full moon night, and the moonlight was as clear as snow falling all over the court. She sat on a swing with scattered fallen leaves under her feet, the wind blowing and grinding against the ground. Ling Xiao practiced with a flute in his hand

The most difficult "flower tongue sound" to learn, which is also the last ornamental sound she learned.

On the full moon night of autumn, she reacted instantly, so calculated, today should be the Mid-Autumn Festival. The flute stopped, Ling Xiao lowered her hand weakly, and sighed softly, the moonlight was shining, but for some reason she could see it so sad and desolate. Her mother's face unintentionally flashed through her mind, before

She has never paid attention to the Mid-Autumn Festival, but now in this world without the Mid-Autumn Festival, she thinks of it instead, she herself finds it interesting, can't help but smile bitterly, and then sigh lightly.

"What's wrong? I couldn't stop sighing. Ling Xiao was slightly startled by this voice, turned around, and found that Lu Jingxing was standing behind her, and she didn't notice Lu Jingxing when he came in.

"How long have you been in?" Ling Xiao came back to his senses and asked.

"Something? I didn't even notice it for so long when I came in. Lu Jingxing also glanced up when he saw Ling Xiao looking at the full moon.

"It's okay, I don't know what's going on, looking at this moon, I feel that this moonlight is a little bleak."

"I guess I've been in the house for a long time, and I'm bored, so I'll take you out for a walk tomorrow." Lu Jingxing's voice is like a cool lake, cool without waves.

"Where are you going?" Ling Xiao glanced at Lu Jingxing.

"Go and admire the laurels, and teach you to ride a horse by the way."

"Horseback riding? Forget it, I watched the horse's scalp tingle, riding on a living thing, too uncomfortable. Ling Xiao shook his head and said what he really thought.

"You can learn everything else, but this horse is like your second leg, and it must be mastered." Lu Jingxing's attitude was resolute, and Ling Xiao no longer refutated, she thought that maybe this was not as bad as she thought.

Ling Xiao also got up very early the next morning, still the blue sky and the gentle birdsong. After freshening up, he took the sword out of the house, and every dawn was so refreshing, and the morning breeze blew through it, lifting his hair and dancing with the sword

It's not a lot of fun. Ling Xiao turned around and slashed his sword, just catching a glimpse of Lu Jing

Xingzheng stood at the door of the courtyard and looked at her quietly, the breeze blew Lu Jingxing's light sleeves, it seemed to be a little more immortal, Ling Xiao didn't know how long he had been here.

"It's progressing pretty fast." After Ling Xiao put the sword into the sheath, he exclaimed.

"Why are you so silent. I'm glad I didn't have a heart attack, otherwise I would have been scared to death by you. In fact, Ling Xiao herself found that her words had become more unconsciously, and she was reluctant to talk to people before, but now she can tell jokes.

"Heart disease?" Lu Jingxing's tone was suspicious.

"Don't talk about that. How did you come so early? Ling Xiao diverted the topic.

"Go pack up, and we'll be off later."

"Just the two of us?"

"There are also Lu Ci and Lu Bo and Yu Niang." Thinking of learning to ride a horse, Ling Xiao was still a little apprehensive in his heart, but he still listened to him and went back to the house to clean up.
