Chapter 21: Ye Gucheng
After Lu Xiaofeng learned about the embroidery thief, he set off to find Xue Bing's grandmother and investigate the clues.
Yan Shi left with Hua Manlou and went to Yangcheng together.
The Hua family is worthy of being one of the richest families in the martial arts, and Yan Shi saved a lot of entanglement with Hua Manlou, and ate well and slept well every day.
"Sure enough, selling my junior sister is the best way to eat openly. Yan said in his heart, thinking about marrying Ye Xiuzhu and Ma Xiuzhen as soon as possible.
At that time, he will be able to eat all year round, go to the Jiangnan Flower House in the spring to enjoy the flowers and swim in the water, and go to Wanmei Villa to see the plum blossoms in the winter...... What a wonderful life?
Of course, Hua Manlou didn't know Yan She's thoughts, he and Yan Shi sat in a comfortable carriage, drinking tea, and watching the surrounding scenery, which was very comfortable.
Even if it is Yan She, he has to admire him, no one can imagine that this is actually a blind man.
I have to say that some people are born bright and free, like a building full of flowers, and some people are born dark and cruel, such as he is strict with someone.
Regardless of their character, these two kinds of people are top-notch beings who can stand on the top of all beings.
As for the majority, it is somewhere in between, mostly mediocre.
If you don't go crazy, you won't become a Buddha.
If you don't do extreme things, it is difficult to be the best person.
It's just the beginning of summer, and the southern scenery is the best time of the year, warm and comfortable, but not hot.
Yangcheng is the most prosperous city in the south.
After Yan Shi and Hua Manlou arrived, they had a great feeling.
The two walked on the street, surrounded by people coming and going, busy with traffic, and many shops, revealing prosperity and peace.
"If I remember correctly, there is a tea house in front of it, and the tea there is very fresh, and we can go and sit down. Hua Manlou pointed to the left-hand side.
During this period of getting along, he already knew that Yan Shi was a relatively self-disciplined person, he didn't drink alcohol and was not lustful, if he could quit his appetite, then he would definitely be a serious monk.
Yan Shi followed him to the teahouse, which was in an alley, where you could see the prosperity of the downtown area, but it would not be disturbed by the noise, and the atmosphere was very clean.
"The knot is in the human realm, and there is no noise of cars and horses. Ask you, how can you be? Sitting on the small building, Yan Shi praised while tasting fragrant tea.
Hua Manlou said: "Senior Brother Yan has a good state of mind, and he has won the natural way of Mr. Wuliu's birth. ”
Yan Shi smiled faintly: "I am a monk, but you are in the world, but you can not be stained with dust, which is really rare." ”
The woman serving tea on the side showed a sweet smile on her face, shallow dimples appeared, and she was pretty, secretly looking at the two with a pair of autumn-like bright eyes.
The white clothes are clean, the young man is like jade, in the bright season, sitting on the small building, bathing in the wind and tasting tea, talking and laughing, such a magnanimous scenery, she can't help but be stupid.
At this time, a white dress came from afar.
The woman looked at it, but her heart trembled.
She felt a chill, like a sharp sword.
The man in white held a sword in his hand, and the man was more like a sword, cold and sharp.
He walked up to the small building, sat down silently, and said, "Tea!"
The woman walked over, leaned over and asked, "What kind of tea do you want?"
The man in white said: "I just want white water." ”
Surprise flashed across the woman's face: "Then why did you come to us?"
The man in white said: "The water you have here comes from the mountain spring in the mountains, which is the purest. ”
The woman said, "I see, wait a minute. She walked inside.
The man in white suddenly glanced at Yan Shi and the others.
Yan Shi also looked at him and looked at him carefully.
This person has a white face and a slight beard, wears a snow-white robe, and has a pair of eyes as bright as stars.
However, Yan Shi's eyes stopped at the black sheath long sword in his hand that had never been put down, and praised: "Good sword." ”
I don't know if it's a sword or a man.
The man in white suddenly said, "Do you know the sword?"
Yan Shi said: "I know people?"
The man in white said: "What's the difference between the two?"
Yan Shi said: "Swords are dead things, but people can give them life and aura, those who know swords may not be able to recognize people, but those who know people must be able to know swords." ”
The man in white said: "Good opinion, I don't know how your swordsmanship is?"
Yan Shi said: "Compared with the White Cloud City Lord, my swordsmanship is not worth mentioning. ”
The man in white said: "You know me?"
Yan Shi said: "The Yellow River is far above the white clouds, a lonely city and ten thousand mountains. Mo Dao has no confidant ahead of him, who in the world doesn't know you?"
Hua Manlou said with a smile: "Senior Brother Yan seems to have mixed the two Tang poems. ”
Yan Shi said: "That's right, this poem is the most suitable for Ye City Lord." ”
The man in white is naturally the world-famous White Cloud City Lord Ye Gucheng.
Ye Gucheng stood up suddenly: "I don't have a confidant, only an opponent." ”
His hand was on the hilt of his sword.
Yan Shi said: "Isn't the opponent the best confidant?"
Ye Gucheng suddenly smiled: "Yes, the opponent is the best confidant." ”
The woman had brought a bowl of white water.
He picked it up and drank it down, then looked at Yan She, and said word by word: "Will you be my best opponent?"
Yan Shi asked rhetorically, "What does City Lord Ye mean, I am your confidant?"
The two looked at each other and did not speak for a moment.
Hua Manlou said with a smile: "In such a beautiful season, the two of you hit it off again, why don't you sit down and drink tea and talk about your heart?"
Ye Gucheng said: "I only drink water. ”
Yan Shi said: "The best way for a swordsman to talk is on the sword. ”
Ye Gucheng nodded and said, "Yes, people can deceive people, but swords can't." ”
Yan Shi shook his head: "Are you sincere to the sword?"
Ye Gucheng said: "A swordsman should only be sincere with the sword. ”
Yan Shi said: "Swordsmen are also people, and people should only be sincere to themselves. ”
Ye Gucheng said: "So you are honest with yourself?"
Yan Shi said: "Move according to your heart and act recklessly." ”
Ye Gucheng was silent for a while, and sighed: "It's a pity that you are not a real swordsman. ”
Yan Shi said: "It's a pity, there are actually a lot of real swordsmen, but there are few who can beat me." ”
Ye Gucheng asked, "What's your name?"
Yan Shi smiled: "I am the head of Emei. ”
Ye Gucheng's eyes moved: "It turned out to be the Sword Sect." ”
Yan Shi said: "This is what others call me. ”
Ye Gucheng said: "The sword that can defeat Ximen Blowing Snow is enough to be called the Sword Sect, and I am also very interested in your single-edged sword." ”
Yan Shi pointed around and said, "This is not a good place to discuss swords. ”
Ye Gucheng said: "Then change places." ”
The weather in summer is changing, and the originally clear sky is actually raining at the moment.
Yan Shi and Ye Gucheng walked out of the small building, facing the wisps of drizzle, and walked out of the city.
Two sharp edges emerged under the sky covered by dark clouds, but they were more thrilling than the dark clouds.
Storms are coming.
On the small building, Hua Manlou sighed: "Why is there such a thing as a swordsman in the world?"
Dropping a piece of silver, he chased after the figures of the two, and at the same time scolded with a smile: "I don't know how to pay." ”
PS: Today's two watches were sent together, and everyone continued to smash.
