Hatred is deep in the heart (2)
"You're amazing." Only Lu Jingxing and Lu Ci knew about her practice of the "Cold Heart Sutra", and Ling Xiao didn't expect her to know.
"In addition to the "Cold Heart Sutra", there is also this set of swordsmanship." Feng Baiyue got up and took out a piece of animal skin from the crack in the stone and spread it on the stone table, and Ling Xiao clearly saw that every sword move was densely painted on it.
"Why don't you practice yourself?" This set of swordsmanship is so exquisite, but Feng Baiyue wants her to practice, she is very puzzled.
"This sword technique belongs to you. When you learn this, I will not stop you from going wherever you want to go. But the premise is to get rid of the Zuoqiu family with me, and it is not difficult to kill Zuoqiu's successor, what I want is the lives of all his people. We have to work together. "As soon as Feng Baiyue mentioned Zuoqiu Ji, there was one
It felt like he was being torn to pieces.
"What if I don't practice?" What do these grievances have to do with her, she thinks that even if Zuoqiu Cicada frames her, it is also a matter of the two of them, and it is because of Yanlingzhan. She thinks that now she can be regarded as a blessing in disguise, and she does not have to become a pawn of Yanling Zhan, so she has no resentment towards Zuoqiu Cicada.
"There are cliffs all over here, if you don't learn these martial arts, you will have to stay here for the rest of your life." Feng Baiyue unlocked her acupoint.
"I want you to count." Ling Xiao picked up the animal skin diagram on the table.
"Of course, when you have practiced these, don't say it's me, Lu Jingxing is afraid that he will not be your opponent." After Feng Baiyue finished speaking, he went out.
Although Ling Xiao felt that what Feng Baiyue said was nonsense, she was unequivocal about learning martial arts.
Since that night, she has been practicing the swordsmanship on the animal skin diagram, hoping that she can leave the place sooner.
Since that night, the whole mansion has been looking for her all over Huizhou City, and Lu Jingxing, who was far away in Donghuan Kingdom, learned about this and rushed back non-stop, but after looking for several days, he still found nothing. There are very few clues that Yu Niang can give, and the speed of sealing Bai Yue that night is too fast, like an eagle catching
Ling Xiao was taken away like a chicken, and Yu Niang only saw a black shadow flashing.
While Lu Jingxing was looking for Ling Xiao in Manhui City, Yanlingzhan was not idle, and took his subordinates to Gusu, and Wanjian Pavilion happened to be in Gusu, which is now part of Nanzhuan Kingdom.
Yanlingzhan stepped into Wanjian Pavilion with two boxes of gold, and after several months of searching, there was no trace of Ling Ling. Now I can only come to this all-knowing Wan Jian Pavilion, hoping to gain something.
"Yo, what kind of wind is this, blowing the Six Princes of the Central Plains Kingdom Hall to me, it's really brilliant." In case Qi is still an evil face, the words are yin and yang.
Yanlingzhan didn't like such a person, but after all, he had a request for others, so he didn't show it, but saluted very respectfully: "I heard that your pavilion knows everything, I'm here to buy news, and I hope that the master of the Ten Thousand Pavilion can tell everything he knows." ”
"What do the six princes want to know?" In case Qi asked knowingly.
"The whereabouts of the princess." Ling Xiao disappeared, and although they were looking for her everywhere, the others didn't know who they were looking for.
In case Qi looked very surprised: "What? Princess Liwu is missing? We, Wan Jian Pavilion, are not well versed in the world. The six princes should go back with their things. ”
"You really don't know?" Yanlingzhan was skeptical.
"This is what I do, and who will have trouble with their possessions?" In case Qi showed a helpless face.
After hearing this, Yan Lingzhan didn't want to waste more time here, so he ordered his subordinates to carry the gold and leave. In case Qi looked at the back of Yanlingzhan leaving, he drank tea by himself.
In late autumn, the leaves have fallen, the days on the cliffs are boring, and there is a bleak scene everywhere. Ling Xiao is accompanied by the autumn wind all day long, and is a friend of dead trees.
The sky in the east was already flushed, and although the morning sun had not yet risen, its brilliance could not be obscured even by the mountains. The wind in late autumn is always chilly, and the figure of a sword dance in front of the cave is lonely but not lonely, I don't know if this set of swordsmanship is born for her, or if she is born for this set of swordsmanship, and it is good to practice
In just a few days, you can put the moves away freely. Feng Baiyue watched silently from the side, a pair of eyes were colder than the wind blowing by, Ling Xiao looked at such eyes every day, feeling both familiar and strange, because she had only seen those eyes in the mirror before.
The morning sun finally revealed its face with a thousand rays of light, shining slightly warm on Ling Xiao's body. But such a warm morning glow could not dispel the cold light in Feng Baiyue's eyes.
"That's it for today. It's going well. From the sky revealing the white belly of the fish to the moment when the sun was high, Ling Xiao never stopped, and Feng Baiyue brought her a glass of water at this time.
"How long does it take for an average person to practice this set of swordsmanship?" Ling Xiao looked at the woman standing in the sun, as if there was a mirror between her and the woman, reflecting the shadows of the two of them.
"I don't know, no one has practiced in a hundred years." Feng Baiyue knew what Ling Xiao was thinking, and she also knew that Ling Xiao didn't believe what she said to her, but she had no choice, if she wanted to destroy the Zuoqiu family, she had to involve Ling Xiao, she didn't want to, but she had to do it.
"If you can't improve all my life, won't I be trapped by you for the rest of my life?" Ling Xiao walked slowly to the edge of the cliff, looking thoughtfully into the distance, his wind-blown clothes flying close to his body. The tone of his voice seemed to be inquiring, as if he was making his own statement.
Feng Baiyue saw Ling Xiao walking towards the edge of the cliff step by step, and did not step forward to stop him, and said: "I see that you have practiced very well, and it is estimated that you will be able to practice it in less than two months, but this "Cold Heart Sutra" You have only broken through the second layer not long ago, and it is estimated that you will have to stay here for a year or two." ”
"That's it, anyway, practicing martial arts is my goal, and for me, it's not the same wherever I stay. In this world, I am already superfluous, so why should I care about this. In the wind, Ling Xiao's voice was lonely and sarcastic.
Feng Baiyue looked at her thin and lonely back, the coldness in her eyes was a little more, and the hatred in her heart came like a spring, and she tried her best to control her voice: "You have to remember that you are never a superfluous person." ”
"You won't understand, just as I can't understand the hatred in your heart." Ling Xiao spoke calmly, her dress still fluttering in the wind.
"If it weren't for Zuoqiuji's dog thief, why would we end up in such a field." Feng Baiyue, who has been deeply rooted in hatred for more than ten years, has the only belief in life is to slash all the people involved in that conspiracy, from easy to difficult, Zuoqiu Jiji will be the last person she wants to kill.
But Ling Xiao felt more and more ridiculous, after coming here, all kinds of things had happened to her, and now she was involved in inexplicable grievances, she was sure that Feng Baiyue was mistaken: "I have to thank him for being kidnapped, so that I won't become someone else's pawn." ”
"It turns out that you still know that you will be someone else's pawn, even if it is not for their design, I will take you away. It's just that your revenge of exterminating the race is not something you want to escape, you can escape. Feng Baiyue's last words were very decisive.
Ling Xiao turned around and walked towards the cave, and said lightly, "Whatever you want." ”
In fact, Ling Xiao has always been very curious about what kind of enmity Feng Baiyue has with Zuo Qiuji and these people in the rivers and lakes, but she is a person who doesn't like to ask too much.
Feng Baiyue looked at her back as she entered, and sighed slightly, she felt that Ling Xiao's heart seemed to be empty, so empty that she couldn't even leave a trace of hatred, and she at least had hatred in her heart, which was enough to support her to live.
Ling Xiao returned to the cave, this time it was replaced by Feng Baiyue walking to the edge of the cliff to stop and look into the distance, under the empty vision was the endless autumn scenery, the rolling mountains, the endless river, but what did all this have to do with her?
The fat pheasant was mercilessly roasted on the bonfire in front of the cave, and the night breeze with the burnt smell of the pheasant always favored the flame, as if it did not chase it, and the flame could only lean to dodge.
Ling Xiao and Feng Baiyue sat side by side at the entrance of the cave, and the fireworks illuminated the two cold faces, which also reflected a pair of indifferent and cold eyes. This is a kind of indifference and coldness that makes fireworks feel frightened, although the fireworks are fierce, but it will not escape the end of being overwhelmed by this indifference and coldness.
"It's like watching the fire." Ling Xiao hooked the corners of his mouth, a pun.
"What?" Feng Baiyue didn't understand what Ling Xiao was saying.
Ling Xiao repeated: "I mean, we don't look like a fire. Sit in the cave and watch the flames. Although Ling Xiao knew that the original meaning of this idiom was not like this, he suddenly thought of this word when he looked at the scene in front of him.
"It's the first time I've heard someone use the word like that." Feng Baiyue's tone was flat.
"Have you ever seen things as clearly as you see this flame?" Ling Xiao said another sentence that seemed to be a statement and an inquiry.
"You're trying to say I'm looking for the wrong person." Feng Baiyue understood the meaning of Ling Xiao's words, but before Ling Xiao had practiced the "Cold Heart Sutra", she would not let Ling Xiao leave here.
Ling Xiao looked at the bonfire in front of him and did not deny what Feng Baiyue said. The two fell silent again, until after a long time, the pheasant was ripe.
"Here you go." Feng Baiyue handed the half-scorched pheasant to Ling Xiao with a wooden stick.
Ling Xiao raised his hand to pick it up, and the night breeze blew, blowing up Ling Xiao's sleeves, revealing the criss-crossing scars on his arms. Feng Baiyue had never paid attention to this, if it weren't for this wind, it would be difficult for her to see the shocking marks on Ling Xiao's arm.
Feng Baiyue's face changed, and a pair of eyes stared straight at Ling Xiao: "Who injured you like this?"
Ling Xiao took the pheasant and said lightly: "I paddled it myself." ”
"Why?" Feng Baiyue is hard to imagine.
"You seem to care about me?" Ling Xiao smiled curiously.
"I'm just asking why you're doing that." Feng Baiyue looked at Ling Xiao's curious and playful smile, and turned her head sideways, she knew that Ling Xiao still didn't believe her.
Ling Xiao put away the smile: "I was aphrodisiac that day. ”
After listening to Ling Xiao's words, Feng Baiyue instantly understood, and his tone changed: "Who is it?" ”
Ling Xiao slowly chewed the pheasant in his mouth, and said for a long time: "This is no longer important. ”
