Eighteen: Being on the top of the mountain, the heart is in the mortal

Children

Happy holidays for Xiao Mo and Xiao Chu.

Hehe.

Is my update really slow? I thought one a day was more of a normal rate, not to mention that I would occasionally post an extra chapter.

*******************************************************************************

The winter of the fourth year of Yuanshuo

Sister Yan saw the words like meeting, until the winter of this year, Brother Qiu Zeqi has been trained satisfactorily. My sister has been dormant for a long time. According to history, the Great War of Monan will start in the coming year, and Wei Qing will send troops from Shuofang City. Shuozhong, the five plains are very close to each other, this is a good opportunity for us, Yan'er can entrust Mo'er and Chu'er to Xiao Fang, and take Shenhu down the mountain to discuss, and the big thing can be done.

Brother: The word for descent

On the top of Tanggula Mountain, a gust of north wind blew, and the fluttering snowflakes fell on the woman, Chen Yansheng gently brushed it away, folded the letter and hid it in his arms.

"Yan'er." She stretched out her arm, and the little rock eagle fluttered and stopped on her arm. The hairs on his neck stood up, and he opened his claws fiercely towards the comer, and Chen Yansheng hurriedly soothed with his left hand.

"Yan'er, what are we going to eat today?" Meng Zeran quickly floated in front of her and asked with an old face. There were no footprints in the snow behind him.

"Master Ancestor is so interested," Chen Yansheng raised his eyebrows and smiled, let go of Xiao Yan, and the rock eagle called twice and flew to the sky. She turned around and continued to build her snowman. Since Meng Zeran was conquered by her with wine and food three and a half years ago, after such a long run-in, she has long felt his temperament clearly, and she can no longer show that she respects his teacher.

"Mother." A two- or three-year-old boy stumbled and ran in the snow, holding a charcoal ball in his hand, and calling in a milky voice.

"Mo'er," Chen Yansheng hurriedly stopped, picked up his son, kissed him on the face, embedded the charcoal ball in the eyes of the snowman, took a few steps back, looked at his work proudly, and praised it, "Perfect." ”

"Isn't it just a snowman," Meng Zeran pouted disapprerovingly, "You are the same age as your son?" ”

Chen Yansheng narrowed her eyes, "Master," she stroked her left ear, "I didn't hear clearly what you said." ”

Mo'er sweats profusely, and her mother's current expression is really like the wolf grandmother in the mother's bedside story every day.

"I didn't say anything." Meng Zeran shook his head, after nearly three years of getting along, he already knew very well that Chen Yansheng's angelic surface, the essence of the devil, if he didn't know how to see the wind and steer, he would definitely be miserable in the next few days.

"Taishi Ancestor said, isn't it just a snowman!" The little man in Chen Yansheng's arms repeated it for him with a milky voice, and the words were clear.

Chen Yan was happy and asked softly, "What about my sister?" ”

"My sister was in the room, and my sister said she was hungry."

She began to feel distressed, "My mother immediately called Uncle Guo to cook, did she say what she wanted to eat earlier?" ”

Meng Zeran was in a hurry, desperately doing colors on the side.

Chen Mo's eyes as smart as ink turned a few times, and he plunged into his mother's arms, "Mother, I said early that she wanted to eat fried chicken legs and hibiscus brocade noodles." ”

"Okay." Meng Zeran was overjoyed, "It's worthy that the Taishi Ancestor loves you so much." ”

"You," Chen Yansheng was angry and funny, and nodded the tip of Mo'er's nose, "You are so soft-hearted, what will you do in the future?" ”

Chen Mo flattened his mouth and said seriously, "My mother said that 'being merciful to the enemy is cruel to oneself', but that is the Taishi Ancestor, and it is not the enemy. ”

Chen Yansheng was dumbfounded, thought for a while, and said, "You're right. But in the future, Mo'er still has to be more careful, especially to distinguish between enemies and friends, otherwise he will only hurt his beloved. ”

"Hmm." Chen Mo nodded vigorously, as if he understood.

"Okay, little tiger, take Mo'er and go see it early." Chen Yansheng patted him on the shoulder, smiled and watched him walk towards Feixue Pavilion with Chen Mo's small figure in his arms, and turned back to Meng Zeran's contemplative gaze.

"Mo'er is still so young, why are you teaching him such an esoteric thing? What exactly is your ...... identity?

Chen Yansheng smiled lightly, "You guessed right." She descended into the distance of Tanggula Mountain, "Mo'er, he has an unusual identity, I can't stop him from fighting his due, so I have to help him prepare before the battle starts...... Master," it was the first time she looked at Meng Zeran so calmly and coldly so closely, "Do you know? I've been injured before, so ...... I don't want to see my loved one get hurt again. Throughout my life, I will work to protect the people I love. ”

A touch of pain flashed in Meng Zeran's usually playful eyes, and the moment Chen Yansheng didn't have time to catch it, he disappeared, and he returned to his usual appearance, "You can play as much as you want, help me bring the fried chicken leg over first." He walked back into the house, "No matter what......" he paused suddenly, "We've got your back." ”

Chen Yansheng was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but smile, thinking about it, this old man who has been scolding Hongchen angrily also has a story, otherwise how could he reach such a back-to-basics realm? In such an isolated snow-capped mountain, meeting such a master is a kind of happiness for her, and she can spend more than three years without worry.

"Miss?" Green clothes came out, since three years ago, Meng Zeran coveted the food and was forced to agree to let Chef Guo live on the top of the mountain, Chen Yansheng successively took the green clothes and Mama Li to the top of the mountain, and ran this deserted practice holy place into a lively family, and she even expanded the stone house and named it Feixue Pavilion. Although Meng Zeran occasionally complained, she knew that he didn't hate this kind of change.

"Miss, today I went down the mountain to buy vegetables, Uncle Li said that Rong Niang passed the word, and there have been frequent changes on the Han-Hungarian border recently, and it is likely that the war will start again." Green said.

Li Ping is the contact person arranged by the Yansheng Intelligence Organization at the foot of Tanggula Mountain, and usually makes a living as a butcher, delivering news for Rong Niang and Chen Yansheng. Since living at the top of Tanggula Mountain, her servants have also learned some light skills, so that they can enter and exit freely. The people in and out of the Feixue Pavilion are all masters, and Chen Yansheng has no intention of hiding it from them, everyone in Chaotianmen knows that Chen Yansheng is secretly operating some things, and even goes down the mountain once a quarter, but they are all kind and don't ask, probably only Xiao Fang and Guo Xie know a little bit of the roots.

*******************************************************************************

It seems that he is going to go down the mountain, Chen Yansheng thought so, and walked into the Flying Snow Pavilion.

"Mother, hug." Xiao Zao, who was dressed in a snow-white fox fur, rolled up from the bed, stretched out his hands, and shouted at her.

Chen Chu, who was only three years old, Chen Yansheng named her Zaozao, because Chu means early, she explained it to others. This name is so good, mothers say so, and everyone is happy to call her milk name like this.

"Early." Chen Yansheng's heart softened, and he hurriedly picked her up and asked, "Is it cold today?" ”

On Tanggula Mountain, in addition to Chen Zao's inability to practice martial arts and fear of cold because of damage to his meridians, even her three-year-old brother Chen Mo has practiced the mental method of dispelling cold since he was a child, Chen Yansheng felt sorry for his daughter, and coerced Guo Xie to freeze in the snow mountain for three days and three nights, caught a snow fox, made a fox fur, and added a coal stove to the morning room, so that he could live on the top of Tanggula Mountain early.

"It's not cold." Sweetly replied early, seeing that her mother's clothes were thin, and her delicate little face was wrinkled, "My mother is cold." ”

"Hehe," Chen Yansheng was extremely warm, rubbing her little face, "My mother is not cold." ”

"Miss and Miss Xiao are really mother-daughter lovers." Green Yi came in and said with a smile, "Mr. Xiao said that it was time for Miss Xiao's acupuncture." ”

"Don't." raised his voice early and drilled into Chen Yansheng's arms. Chen Yansheng laughed and grabbed her out, "If you don't obey the acupuncturist, you will be unhappy." ”

"Master." Thinking of Shigong's clear face early, he began to hesitate, "But after acupuncture, you have to drink a good bitter medicine." Her frown could kill a fly.

"As the saying goes, 'good medicine is good for disease', and this medicine is good for recuperating the body early. And Shigong has already added licorice and orange linder, so it shouldn't be too bitter. Chen Yansheng persuaded bitterly, "Let's start the meal after drinking the medicine, I have my favorite fried chicken leg in the morning today." ”

"Hmm." Burst into tears early and smiled, nodding. Chen Yansheng carried her to Xiao Fang's infirmary, saw that he had done acupuncture early in the morning, and fell asleep groggily under the effect of Ma Boiling San (Chen Yansheng's toss) early, and asked, "Master, how is your body early?" ”

"You don't have to worry." Xiao Fang got up and put away the acupuncture, "After three years of conditioning, there is no big problem. When the last month's course of treatment has passed, there is no need for such frequent acupuncture, just drinking medicine. ”

"Well, I'm relieved." Chen Yansheng lowered his eyes, "Otherwise, I won't feel at ease even if I leave." ”

"You're going down again?" Xiao Fang's hand slid on the medicine box, "Isn't it only two months since the last time I went down the mountain?" ”

"Rong Niang came to the news that something big is going to happen, and I am going to take Shenhu down the mountain to have a look, this time it may take a long time." Chen Yansheng got up and bowed, "Mo'er and the master who has been tired of taking care of it early on." ”

"You...... You don't have to be so polite with me. He sighed, "Have you told anyone else?" ”

"Not yet." Chen Yansheng lowered his head, "Naturally, I have to tell the master first." ”

"Although your martial arts progress is fast, you are not very sincere."

"I know, but it's enough to save my life."

"I'll cry sooner."

She was silent for a long time, "I know, but I ......"

There is no way.

"Tomorrow I will take Shenhu down the mountain." She chose to say it at the table where everyone was sitting, and when she looked at everyone's hands, her heart suddenly overflowed with reluctance and a thin sadness.

Shen Hu slowly raised his head from the dining table, looking at his sister's somewhat sad but resolute expression, and his heart was a little clear.

"Mother, we're going too." Mo'er didn't feel the gloom of the adult circulation, and tried to raise her little face and smile.

"Nope." She replied a little impulsively, a little frightened early, and asked timidly, "That mother, how many days will you come back this time?" He raised his fingers early, counted them one by one, and asked in a milky voice.

"My mother doesn't know." She crouched down, looked at her daughter, and replied with a smile.

I felt uncomfortable early, and I was a little stunned, "In the past, my mother and mother came back in less than ten days." She tilted her head slightly, her black and white eyes flashed with a little confusion, very cute, "Every time my mother doesn't take my brother out early, I count the days when my mother and brother come back at home day by day, and when it is almost ten, my mother will come back." ”

"Then you don't have to count." She closed her eyes, tears falling.

"Mother doesn't cry." Mo'er rubbed over, raised her soft little hand, and wiped her face indiscriminately, "It's not a man who loves to cry." He didn't think that his mother was not a man, so he thought hard and asked, "Does my mother have something very important?" ”

"Yes, my mother has something very important."

"Then my mother, don't worry, I'll listen to my master and my grandfather early, and wait for my mother to come back."

"Hmm," Chen Yansheng was moved, she had nothing else to ask for. He opened his eyes and turned his head, "Early, listen to my brother." ”

"Be obedient early." She didn't know much about the situation early on, but she instinctively felt her mother's worry, so she readily agreed.

"Yan'er, you and Xiaohuzi will wait for me in the snow behind the pavilion." Xiao Fang watched from the side, his face sank like water, and he commanded lightly, turning around and walking into the house.

*******************************************************************************

"Martial arts practice to the end, relying on experience rather than understanding." Xiao Fang stood in the snow behind Feiyun Pavilion and said, "Yan'er, your understanding is enough, but you are not diligent in practice, and you lack actual combat. Xiaohuzi, your understanding is not as good as your sister, but diligence can make up for clumsiness, and there is also a lack of actual combat, now, I am with you two opponents at the same time, don't remember that I am your master, just when I am the real enemy to resist, you know, I will not be merciful. Tide," he commanded, turning his head, "sword." ”

"Hmm." Hiding between the branches of the thousand-year-old tree, the tide responded, and threw down three swords from the tree, all of which were ordinary bronze swords on the market, Chen Yansheng tried it in his hand, and it was not as easy as the soft sword sent by the master she was used to.

Xiao Fang shook his long sword, and there was a faint sound of wind and thunder, and lightning struck at the door in front of the two. Chen Yansheng was startled, and hurriedly raised his sword to go to the other side, only to hear the sound of "go", the sword in his hand swung away, and the tiger's mouth was faintly numb, and the same was true for Shenhu beside him. Only then did I find that there was a trace of obvious fire in today's master, not like the white wind and moon in the past.

"On the battlefield of another day, no one stopped to wait for you to recover. Again. Xiao Fang said coldly.

Chen Yansheng and Shen Hu glanced at each other, and at the same time bypassed Xiao Fang's left and right, and the two swords formed a circle of light, stirring Xiao Fang inside.

"It's kind of a word." Xiao Fang said lightly, and while speaking, his body pulled up, like a crane soaring to the sky, his body was tall and lonely, faster than the green smoke, and there was a long roar in the sky, and the sword light flashed, like a little star, and at the same time shrouded Chen Shen and the others.

The two figures scattered, returned again, shook off the sword flower, there was real in the void, there was a void in the real, a stab in the armpit, a stab in the waist, looking as if they were going to succeed, hearing Xiao Fang's sneer, the sword was horizontal, "ding" twice, the trembling tip of the sword was actually separated by him with a sword at the same time, a strong force through the tip of the sword came, the two of them suddenly struggled, Chen Yansheng saw the opportunity quickly, immediately withdrew, but Shen Hu stubbornly lost his temper, his face flushed, step by step in, intending to take the sword down.

"Little Huzi," Chen Yansheng exclaimed, Xiao Fang snorted, the strength in his hand was retracted and vomited, Shen Hu couldn't stand still, kicked back a few steps, and sat down.

Xiao Fang picked up the two swords on the ground, raised his eyebrows and said, "Come again." ”

Chen Yansheng frowned, she didn't know what medicine the master had taken wrong, but she still noticed the master's anxious mood, so she had to sacrifice her life to accompany the gentleman.

When the sun set, Xiao Fang finally put away his sword and said, "It's okay." At that time, Chen Yansheng and Shen Hu were tired and paralyzed on the snow, looking at each other and smiling bitterly, but Xiao Fang did not look back, and went back.

"Tide, are you still there?" The geese shouted loudly

The tide flew down from the trees, and his expression was sullen.
