Chapter 11 Martial Arts in the Snow

"It's been a long time since it's snowed so heavily in Guigu." Guiguzi, who was standing by the window, touched his gray beard while watching the goose-feathered snow fall outside the window.

Xiao Han added some wood to the stove, and then walked to Guiguzi's side and looked out the window: "Daddy, Ruixue Zhaofeng Nian." ”

Guiguzi nodded and continued to enjoy the beautiful scenery that this heavy snow brought to Guigu. The small river that runs through the valley of ghosts is also about to freeze, and the once cheerful pace has slowed down, ready to rest quietly and comfortably in this snowy day for another season. On the other side of the river, the plum blossoms are blooming, revealing dots of pink in the white world, just like the frozen pink faces of children playing in the snow. The tournament was also completely covered with snow, and the branches of the mysterious banyan tree planted on the edge of the tournament were also covered with snow, as if draped in a white shawl. The bamboo forest behind the house is still upright, less proud of the past, more gentle now, and slowly embraced by the snow.

Guiguzi was also fascinated by this snowy scene, and his eyebrows, which were always upright, were flattened, and he slowly stretched his brows.

There's never been a quieter time than snow.

Outside the window, two men appeared, one black and one white, and rushed here, and the snowflakes fell on their heads, dyeing the green silk into white hair.

Wei Zhuang beckoned to the window, Gai Nie quickly grabbed him, and the two of them greeted the master together.

"Xiaohan, they're looking for you." After Guiguzi finished speaking, he nodded to them, walked back to the house, picked up her dark blue cotton robe from Xiao Han's bed and put it on for her, and tied the front strap. Guiguzi half-squatted to help Xiao Han smooth out the robe, put his hands on her shoulders, and said to her with a smile, "Don't suffer the cold." ”

Xiao Han nodded, hugged Guiguzi, and then walked out of the house.

In the white and immaculate world, no one has stepped on this piece of snow yet, and Xiao Han can't even bear to step on it. When her feet landed on the thick snow, she heard a "squeak, squeak" sound. No matter how many times she had heard it before, every time she heard it, she would smile like a child. The three of them just talked and laughed, and you chased me away from Guiguzi's sight.

Guiguzi smiled and shook his head, returned to his desk, picked up the bamboo slip and read it intently.

The three of them came to the open space next to Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang's house, Xiao Han found a snowman standing in the middle of the two houses in the snow, she stepped forward to check, and Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang followed her. She noticed that the snowman's face seemed to have been carved out with her bare hands, and when she looked closely, it was somewhat similar to herself.

"This," Xiao Han pointed at the snowman and then at himself, "Is it me?" ”

Gai Nie was about to speak, but was snatched away by Wei Zhuang: "This is Senior Brother's idea, does it look like it?" ”

Xiao Han nodded: "It's very similar, but the sun will melt away in a few days." Xiao Han showed a sad look.

"It's okay, Senior Brother will pile one for you every year when it snows." Wei Zhuang said, squinting at Gai Nie.

"Really?" Xiao Han showed a happy look.

Ganie nodded, his emaciated face showing a determined expression.

Xiao Han was relieved, ran happily into the distance, and then got into the snow. Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang were also quite happy, lying beside her on the left and right. Snowflakes fell on them and were buried in the snow in a few moments.

"Xiaozhuang, why don't we have a competition in this snowfield?" Gagnie's whim.

"Good! I can't ask for it. Wei Zhuang and Gai Nie rose from the snow.

Xiao Han also got up from the ground: "Come on!" She galloped between the two.

Gai Nie stood the wooden sword upright, and the fingers of the sword grazed the blade from bottom to top; Wei Zhuang raised his hand and placed the wooden sword flat in front of his eyes, and slashed the blade of the sword from right to left with his sword fingers.

"Three, two, one, go!"

The snowflakes flying in the air seemed to stop falling under a command, the two raised their swords and rushed towards each other, the sound of wooden swords colliding resounded throughout the ghost valley, the snowflakes began to fall again, the pace of the two people moved to roll up the snowflakes on the ground, enveloping them in it, Xiao Han was a little unable to see their moves, and could only hear the sound of wooden swords colliding and slipping. Suddenly, Gai Nie rose from the snow mist, and slashed down with his sword, and then heard the sound of the wooden sword breaking. Wei Zhuang quickly flew backwards with his right leg on the ground, leaving the snow mist, Gai Nie pressed over with his left foot, and the two of them delivered the final blow.

Snow was falling in a torrent, snowflakes fell on the shoulders of Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang, and Xiao Han ran towards them.

"Xiaozhuang, you lost." Gai Nie's wooden sword rested on Wei Zhuang's chest.

Wei Zhuang's deadly sword that reached out to Gai Nie's throat was only half left.

"Senior brother, you won, but," Xiao Zhuang withdrew the broken sword and touched the broken sword with his hand, "you have to sharpen the wooden sword for me again." Wei Zhuang had an apologetic look on his face.

"Naturally, there is no problem." Gai Nie hugged Wei Zhuang forward, and the two patted each other on the back and laughed heartily.

"Hey, and me!" Xiao Han stepped forward and pulled the arms of the two, "I'm going to compete with you too." ”

"You two go up together!" Xiao Han took a few steps back, saluted, and put on a posture.

Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang exchanged a look, also saluted, carried a sword, and rushed towards Xiao Han left and right.

They didn't know that Xiao Han had combined the vertical and horizontal swordsmanship they handed over to her with ease, and could use the horizontal sword to deal with Gai Nie, and the vertical sword to deal with Wei Zhuang. In the face of Gai Nie's hard slash, she turned around to dodge and did not touch it; In the face of Wei Zhuang's sweep, she bent down to dodge, and even pressed the throats of the two when she returned the move. However, among them, Gai Nie still gave her some way, but Wei Zhuang caught Xiao Han's wooden sword with two fingers, Xiao Han noticed Gai Nie's next move, she could only abandon the sword and do a few backflips. The snow on the snow flew up, and when it fell, Xiao Han was pointed at her abdomen by Gai Nie's wooden sword, and Wei Zhuang was on her left, and the cold broken sword was attached to her neck.

Xiao Han smiled: "I lost," she picked up the wooden sword that Gai Nie had sharpened for herself, and ran away, "I'll go cook." ”

"Why is Xiao Han so happy when he loses?" Wei Zhuang looked at her back as she left and asked.

"Xiaozhuang, look!" Gagne pointed to the place where they had just fought.

Someone left four words on the snow with their steps: vertical and horizontal.

"This girl is really not easy." Wei Zhuang crossed his arms and said with a smile.

"We won in the end, but we lost at the beginning." Ganie smiled too.

Together, they looked at a wisp of smoke rising in the distance.
