CHAPTER XXIX

I turned to look at the senior brother, who was dressed in a navy blue silk robe, with a gentle smile on the corner of his lips, which set off the senior brother's steady demeanor. I curled the corners of my mouth, "I got up early this morning to practice swords, and I happened to meet Senior Sister Lingyun, so I asked Senior Sister to accompany me to practice first, Senior Brother watched from the side, what do you think?"

"The swordsmanship is clear, but the swordsmanship lies in the way of hand-to-hand combat, the spirit of inner truth, the external manifestation of peace and etiquette, the cloth shape and the qi, and the gods. After the senior brother finished speaking, he took the green sword from my hand, and I only felt that a blue figure flashed in front of my eyes, and the figure was extremely fast. Senior Sister Lingyun saw that the senior brother had lifted the sword, and hurriedly put on a sword technique to deal with it.

Senior Brother's sword moves are not fixed, his body is vigorous, and he moves freely, a green sword is overflowing with sword energy in his hand, Senior Sister Lingyun's forehead is already dripping with a layer of fine sweat, and there is a trace of unbearable difficulty in her eyebrows. Seeing the blue light flashing, just when she thought that she had narrowly avoided it, she realized that the move just now was a false move, and before she had time to change the trick to resist, the green steel sword stabbed diagonally, but the blade stopped on her left shoulder.

A few days ago, I heard the fifth senior brother Wu Xing say that among the disciples on Chunxu Mountain, in addition to the senior brother, there are three who are good at swordsmanship, one is the second senior brother Bo Shen, and the other is the seventh senior brother Mo Yan...... I don't really believe in this, and it's hard for me to imagine how I can make a good sword if I don't see it once. There is another one of these is the eleventh senior sister Lingyun, but this sword competition is less than a dozen moves, and Senior Sister Lingyun was defeated, which really shocked my heart, I looked at the senior brother, and thought sweetly in my heart, the senior brother I like is really amazing!

Senior Brother was talking to Senior Sister Lingyun about the flaws in her swordsmanship, and told her how to combine this swordsmanship with spells, and then talked about Senior Sister Lingyun's fire skills, Senior Sister Lingyun was there with a sword and listened carefully, and I also listened and memorized it with my ears pricked up. After saying this, the light of the nine days was already bright, Senior Sister Lingyun moved to a place in the shade and began to practice fire, so I went to the Jiuqu verandah next to the lotus pond with Senior Brother to walk and talk, he suddenly stopped, took out a delicate box from his sleeve and put it in my hand.

"What is this?"

"For you. ”

"This box is so beautiful! Thank you, big brother!"

Yan Hua saw that she happily called Yin Jia out, it seemed that he was going to store the box, he couldn't hold back a smile for a while, "The gift is in the box." ”

When I heard this, I was a little surprised for a while, and I thought that the senior brother had given me a beautiful box so that I could put some bits and pieces, but it turned out that the gift was still in it. I carefully opened the box, there is a pair of mutton fat white jade chrysanthemum pattern inlaid gem tassel step shake, this mutton fat jade is clear and pure, like clotted fat, chrysanthemum high relief, leaf petals clear and distinct, as if there is a light fragrance overflowing, so I approached and smelled, the elder brother said on the side, "I used magic to store the chrysanthemum fragrance in this mutton fat white jade, unchanged for many years." I couldn't help but exclaim, "Thank you, big brother!"

Yan Hua took this pair of steps and gently inserted them on Ah Jin's thick black hair on her temples, the green gem beads were from shallow to deep, finely broken, and embellished into a string of tassels between her hair, which looked very smart and pretty, and the jade hibiscus was even more beautiful, he couldn't help but sigh, "It can match you." ”

When Senior Brother looked at me, the eyes that had been praised by Senior Brother Mo Yan were full of tenderness, and I was a little embarrassed, "Senior Brother, this must have cost you a lot of silver, right?" I don't have any silver taels around me now, and I'll return the gift to you in the future, okay?" It is said that the gift is that you come and go to me to be polite and courteous, but I don't have any silver taels, and I can't return a gift for a while, so I owe it first, and go back to find a promise to block two games, and earn some silver to repay the gift.

When the elder brother heard me say this, he laughed at me for being stupid, and he told me that it didn't have to be like this between me and him.

Later, when it was time to go to bed at night, I was still a little reluctant to take the step shake down, but I was worried that I would bump and bump it when I was sleeping, so I carefully put the pair of step shakers in the box, and carefully put it at the head of the bed, and lay on the bed to take a look, and felt that it was still not safe enough, so I got up and called Inga and put the box in. After a bit of tossing, the quilt was covered and ready for bed. But whether I have my eyes open or my eyes closed, I see the face of the senior brother who is smiling at me, and I think that just thinking about the senior brother will make me feel very happy, and when I am smirking, I suddenly think, the senior brother is so good, what if other girls also like the senior brother? And I have so many shortcomings, if the senior brother dislikes me in the future, what should I do? I just smirked and worried for a while, and even stupidly wanted to hide the senior brother, only allowed to see it, only allowed to like it. Hey, it's hard work to like the big brother!

I don't know when, I was sleepy, and before I went to sleep, I thought of the lotus pond today, under the zigzag corridor, there was a lotus wind blowing, lifting the big brother's navy blue robe, slightly revealing the silver-white corners of the clothes. We sat together under the porch, shoulder to shoulder in the refreshing lotus breeze, listening to him tell a story, an experience, and the corners of the elder brother's eyes were gentle. Even if I complained about him so much later, I can't forget this time no matter what.

During this period of time, the senior brother often stood in the courtyard to watch me practice swords, and when he met a sword move that he thought he was good, he would smile proudly at him, but sometimes, after the senior brother pointed out a word or two to me, I realized that this sword move was actually slightly passive, and the previous sword move was actually too anxious.

Yan Hua saw that she was indeed diligent, so every day after giving those few exercises to the task, he would take the time to come over to teach her, and when he saw her smart appearance, sometimes he would think, she is so talented, and so beautiful, this will ...... What could it be?

.

When the elder brother deals with official business every day, he will be a little busy, and ...... Still very focused. Once I sat in the study with him for an afternoon, and at the beginning of the stars, the senior brother looked up and saw me with a surprised face, and asked me when I came, so I said with some grievances, Fang Cai came with you, senior brother. The senior brother was stunned when he heard this, and immediately blamed himself and said sorry, if it were Qingshan and Mo Yan, I would definitely be so angry that I would fight with them, but this is the senior brother, and I can't even give birth to a little resentment in my heart.

Since this time, every time when the senior brother has something important, I am very sensible not to disturb him, sometimes I will invite the fifth senior brother Wu Xing to make tea and chat, sometimes I see that the senior sister Lingyun is in a good mood, and I will also take her to take a stroll in the huge mansion, sometimes I will call the shape of the water to kill a game of chess, when there is really no one to accompany me, I will practice a practice of magic by myself, and when I am tired of practice, I will run to talk to the Shenhui Beast, and this time I will come and go, and I am also very familiar with this Shenhui Beast. More often, with only a cloak, he sits on a small boat and hides in the lotus bush and swings alone with the waves, if it happens to be after lunch, he will take a nap on the boat by the way.

Today I was lying on the boat, my face covered with a big lotus leaf, and I was counting how many days it would take to get to nine days, but in fact, everything was fine above the nine days, and it was this long sunshine that I was not used to. There is night and morning in the mortal world, and I think it is the best. Therefore, sometimes I will hide in the depths of this lotus forest, and cover my face with big lotus leaves, so that I feel as if there is night here.

After Yan Hua dealt with the matter in hand, he came to her and saw that she was really hiding here. She lay quietly in the stern of the boat, her face covered with oily lotus leaves, as if she was sleeping. She was wearing a white dress, and the skirt slid over the boat and landed on the lake, gently raising and half-sinking in the blue water. Although she is very noisy most of the time, when she is quiet, she can also match the four words of softness and quietness. Seeing a bunch of lotus flowers lying in front of her heels, he chuckled helplessly, this thousand-year-old fairy lotus flower was really a disaster when she met her. He cast a spell and landed lightly on the stern of the boat, and the hull of the boat did not shake at all, as if only a feather had just fallen. He looked at her for a long time, and felt in his heart that it would be satisfying to have her by his side for thousands of years to come. He gently took away the lotus leaf that covered her face, wanting to see her sleeping peacefully, but when the lotus leaf was taken away, he saw a pair of clear eyes and looked at him in surprise and confusion, "Senior brother, when did you come?"

Yan Hua was also stunned and said with a smile, "It turns out that you didn't sleep." ”

I also pouted, got up and smiled, "Well, it's just lying down and resting here." Seeing that the skirt was soaked in water, he steamed the skirt dry with the newly learned fire technique, and when he saw the appreciative eyes of the senior brother, he felt very arrogant. Thinking of meeting Fifth Senior Brother Wu Xing this morning, seeing him smiling easily, I asked Senior Brother now, "Senior Brother, is Fifth Senior Brother about to break through to the British Period?"

"Wu Xing has no problem, presumably it must be the past two months. It will take some time to shape the water. Seeing that she was still wearing her old hosta on her head, she asked, "I gave you a step...... Don't you like it?"

I touched the hairpin on my head sideways, and said a little embarrassed, "I naturally like what you gave me, even Senior Brother, you know me, I've always been careless, I'm afraid...... I'm afraid I'll lose it someday, but it's a pity. So it's safe to put the step shake on my Ingari. ”

"Fool, what is given to you is what you are meant to wear. If I lose it, what does it matter? I'll send someone to make something different and more delicate. ”

"But I like this one even more. ”

"If you lose it, make it the same again. ”

"......" When I heard this, I was silent. This gift was given to me by the senior brother at the beginning, for me, the meaning is special, if I lose it, even if I buy the same pair again, for me, it is different, but the senior brother he doesn't understand.

.

Lying side by side in the narrow boat with my brother, looking up at the sky dyed blue by lotus leaves, I asked, "Brother, what did you do when you were young, in the best weather?"

Without thinking, he said, "Read." ”

"Tired of reading?" I asked.

"Practice spells. ”

"Are you tired from practicing?" I asked again.

"Read. ”

He saw Ah Jin pouting slightly, and smiled bitterly, "What about you?"
