Chapter 15: Small Under the Eaves
Under Xiao He's begging, Lin Shouxi finally told him what happened in the room.
Lin Shouxi said on the side, and Xiao He nodded on the side.
Wang Erguan and Ji Luoyang both expressed disbelief after hearing this.
"Are you really just fighting in the house?" Wang Erguan asked.
"Yes, I teach my junior sister martial arts."
"You're fighting on the ground, not on the bed?" Wang Erguan confirmed it twice.
"On the ground."
"But is it so heavy to teach martial arts?" Wang Erguan was heartbroken, "She is still a little girl. ”
Lin Shouxi shook his head, "Senior Sister's martial arts are much higher than yours. ”
"What did you say?!" Wang Erguan's self-esteem was humiliated, and he said angrily: "Lin Shouxi! You've got the little girl's favor and got carried away, haven't you? If you don't want to fight in this courtyard today, I will destroy you, the self-proclaimed Hehuan Sect Master, tonight!" ”
Wang Erguan said with emotion and justice, but he heard Xiao He say weakly, "You are not allowed to bully Senior Brother Shouxi."
The passionate words suddenly became self-inflicted, and Wang Erguan was instantly depressed, sat down without saying a word, and didn't want to eat.
At night, Wang Erguan brought out a basin of water and took the initiative to wash his clothes.
He washed the luxurious garments he wore when he was brought to the altar, and the only noble thing he had left to show his status.
He was reluctant to wear it a few days ago, but now he took it out to wash and dry, ready to wear it tomorrow.
Night.
The finch cried, the insects chirped low, and the black shadow of the iron tree danced its minions in the courtyard.
Under the cool breeze under the corridor, the wind leaves chirped softly, and Ji Luoyang looked at the moon with his sharpened wooden sword, not knowing what he was thinking.
Lin Shouxi also looks at the moon.
In his world, the moon already has a lot of beautiful sustenance, and at this moment he doesn't want to do anything, feeling the clear light all over his body, and he feels calm.
Xiao He's room was not lit, but the true qi was obviously flowing, and occasionally there was a fist wind, which was when she was practicing martial arts after learning from the pain.
A large number of night clouds pushed in from the direction of the Wu family, obscuring the moonlight.
After a short period of sunny weather, it seemed that there was another rainstorm, and in this oppressive darkness, Lin Shouxi smelled the smell of the dark tide.
He returned to the room, closed the door, and slept on the bed, his hand always resting on the wooden sword that Ji Luoyang gave him.
Nothing happened overnight.
When he woke up in the morning, Xiao He was already sitting upright in front of his bed, his hands folded on his laps, and the light from behind the window came in, reflecting a faint golden color through her white hair.
"Why did you enter my room without permission?" Lin Shouxi asked.
"Senior brother didn't close the door, Xiao He came in." The girl smiled sweetly.
"Although there are only two of us in the sect, we should also observe etiquette." Lin Shouxi said this, but his expression was a little more solemn.
These days, he can always feel a killing intent in the courtyard, so he opens the door tonight and tempts.
Throughout the night, he was half-asleep and half-awake, always on his toes.
He didn't hear any superfluous sounds, but Xiao He appeared beside the bed like this.
How did she do it?
Is this her prank on herself or is it a dismount?
He wasn't sure what Xiao He wanted to do disguised as an ordinary girl and infiltrate the Wu family, but fortunately, she shouldn't have any intention of killing herself before she taught Xiao He the complete Sword Sutra.
And after teaching the Sword Sutra, she had no chance to kill herself.
He cut the Demon Gate's mind-controlling technique 'Heartless Mantra' into nine parts, mixed it into the Sword Sutra, and planted it into her body silently as each style was planted.
If Xiao He has murderous intentions towards him, he can use this to protect himself, if not, he can secretly help her solve it.
As for the Sword Sutra itself...... This is indeed a master's learning, but it is by no means a secret that cannot be passed on.
In the past, the Demon Gate practiced the White Pupil and Black Phoenix Sword Sutra up and down, and even compiled it into a morning exercise, and practiced it neatly. But the rest of the disciples learned it, but they learned a good set of swordsmanship, and only he could resonate with this sword sutra and exert incredible power.
"How's my brother's injury?" Xiao He asked with concern.
"It's better." Lin Shouxi replied.
"When it's better, let's continue with the teacher's sister sword scripture." Xiao He couldn't wait to say.
"It seems that I have accepted a junior sister who has no conscience." Lin Shouxi smiled helplessly.
"Of course this is a joke, the junior sister is most concerned about the safety of the senior brother." Xiao Hexiang's cheeks are slightly bulging.
Lin Shouxi sat up from the couch and put on his clothes, but he covered his lips and coughed.
Xiao He saw that his face turned pale, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with Senior Brother?" ”
"The injuries are capricious, nothing." Lin Shouxi said, "I'll continue to teach you the Snow Flowing Cloud Sword Sutra." ”
"But senior brother......" Xiao He's expression moved slightly when he saw him covering his chest, "It won't be that I tried too much with you yesterday and accidentally let senior brother ......"
"Senior sister doesn't need to blame herself." Lin Shouxi acquiesced.
"Sure enough......" Xiao He said pityingly: "They all complained that I was too competitive yesterday and tired of my senior brother." ”
"I'm just using too much energy and losing some strength." Lin Shouxi said: "Senior sister doesn't have to think about what the true anger gave me. ”
“?” Xiao He was stunned, "I didn't think about crossing the ......"
"Senior sister, don't pretend, your concern is written on your face." Lin Shouxi smiled weakly.
"I ......"
How can I care...... This is obviously hypocritical...... Xiao He felt that she had been kidnapped, she pinched the hem of her skirt, and finally squeezed out a smile: "This is all for senior brother to see." ”
She hesitated for a moment and said, "That'...... I'll come and heal my brother's true qi. ”
"No." Lin Shouxi said: "My injury won't heal for a while, we don't know what Yun Zhenren is going to do, senior sister, I know that you are in a good realm, but you should save your strength, and you must not waste your true qi at will." ”
Xiao He wanted to say 'Senior Brother is right', but out of her desire for the Sword Sutra, she pressed this sentence back to the bottom of her heart, and said with a clear gaze:
"How can senior brother despise himself? If you have three longs and two shorts, we will not be the generals, you turn your back, and I will heal you. ”
Lin Shouxi wanted to speak and stopped, but Xiao He said: "If you twist and pinch like this again, I will call you senior sister." ”
Lin Shouxi turned his back at this time.
Xiao He exhaled softly and silently told himself that it was all worth it.
She leaned over, raised her fingers lightly, hooked off the embroidered shoes, and put them neatly aside.
The girl wore dusty white socks, carefully stepped on the bed, sat down with folded legs behind Lin Shouxi, pressed her hands on the young man's back, and her true qi flowed out of her palms and drilled into the young man's body little by little.
Lin Shouxi's body unceremoniously absorbed the aura conveyed by Xiao He, and expressed sincere condolences on his lips:
"Senior sister doesn't have to be too reluctant, I'm ...... It's okay. ”
"Don't talk, concentrate on it."
Xiao He conveys precious true qi, his words are gentle, but his heart is like a knife.
True Qi flowed into Lin Shouxi's body, absorbed by his spiritual veins, and merged into the center.
Xiao He's true qi is far more refined than Wang Erguan and Ji Luoyang's, Lin Shouxi only feels that the weight of his body is getting lighter and lighter, if he does this every time, he can be completely healed in less than three days.
When Xiao He let go, her face was slightly pale, but Lin Shouxi's face was a lot ruddy.
"Senior sister, are you alright?" Lin Shouxi cared kindly.
"No, it's fine." Xiao He said staggeringly.
"Thank you, junior sister." Lin Shouxi said sincerely: "If my junior sister can help heal her injuries every day, I think I will be able to recover in another ten days." ”
"Daily?" Xiao He's mouth opened slightly.
"Hmm...... What's wrong with my sister? Is there something difficult about it? Lin Shouxi clutched his chest and coughed a few times.
Listening to this cough, Xiao He had mixed feelings, if it was someone else, she would definitely feel that she was pretending to be sick, but after being with Lin Shouxi for so many days, she could feel the other party's indifference, calmness and sincerity.
Whew, for the complete sword scripture......
"It's nothing, Senior Brother gave me such a powerful sword scripture, and it is a matter of course for me to help Senior Brother heal." Xiao He said with a smile.
"That'...... There is Senior Sister Lao. Lin Shouxi did not refuse.
She kept smiling and got up weakly, her little white socks stepping on the thin quilt and jumping lightly to the ground, her green skirt swirling and falling slightly, covering her green white calves.
Lin Shouxi continued to pass the sword scripture to Xiao He.
After a morning of teaching, Xiao He finally learned the third form.
When eating in the afternoon, Wang Erguan always glared at him angrily, if it weren't for Yun Zhenren not allowing them to fight, otherwise this little fat man would have done it a long time ago.
But Wang Erguan and Ji Luoyang can't see through Xiao He's disguise, so in their eyes, Xiao He is just a delicate ordinary girl.
Wang Erguan doesn't necessarily like her much, but as a young master, his long-term pampering has bred countless possessiveness, and they are always in his heart.
Ji Luoyang didn't have the slightest idea about Xiao He, on the contrary, he was in a good mood to watch the show.
He also pulled Lin Shouxi into a small corner and asked in a low voice:
"You live in the same house, nothing really happened?"
"What can happen?"
"Are you afraid that you will be killed if you break your virgin body?" Ji Luoyang smiled and said, "Even if you don't have a ** body, you can have a lot of fun." There is more than one wonderful thing about the human body, otherwise the noble gate valve would not have such a lot of people with a habit of breaking sleeves. ”
"I'm not interested." Lin Shouxi faintly refused.
"Not interested? Is it because Miss Xiaohe is not beautiful enough, or does Brother Lin already belong to something else in his heart? Ji Luoyang asked the bottom of the question, "Or, you don't understand this?" ”
"I've known it since I was a child."
Lin Shouxi didn't bother to answer more, he had read all the books in the sect when he was a child, he had been curious about it, but he didn't think that there would be much fun in it.
The avenue is boundless, life is too short to waste time here.
In the afternoon, Lin Shouxi continued to teach Xiao He the Sword Sutra, Xiao He was haunted by yesterday's fiasco, and after learning swordsmanship, she found a reason to learn from Lin Shouxi, trying to see some ways.
Then the girl's groans of pain sounded intermittently in the house again.
Xiao He obviously felt that he had become stronger, but he was defeated again and again.
"It didn't hurt, did you?" Lin Shouxi stretched out his hand and pulled the girl up.
Of course it hurts...... Xiao He pursed his lips, more and more doubting whether he was dignified. Although she often pretended to be quiet and weak, she was strong in her heart, so she had to smile and say:
"It's okay, senior brother, don't worry."
"It's okay."
“……”
Xiao He was a little inexplicably angry, she silently swore that she must practice martial arts well, beat Lin Shouxi's indifference to the ground, and beat her to her knees and beg for mercy!
In the next few days, Xiao He worked hard and came to Lin Shouxi's bedside early in the morning to guard.
Their daily lives also tend to be the same, all of them are teaching swordsmanship and martial arts competitions.
Xiao He always refused to admit defeat and attacked fiercely, so he was also beaten very badly.
She held a grudge.
One day, she used all her strength to finally break through Lin Shouxi's moves, and made Lin Shouxi take a few steps back with a punch.
She looked worried, and hurriedly shushed the cold and asked for warmth, but her heart was so happy that she almost jumped up.
Lin Shouxi rubbed his chest.
He knew that the hatred accumulated in the girl's heart at this moment would quietly transform into something else.
"Senior sister is getting better and better." Lin Shouxi smiled and said, "If you can use your true qi, with that punch just now, I will either die or be injured." ”
"Where am I willing to kill my brother?" Xiao He smiled gently.
She was in an excessively good mood, and took the initiative to pull Lin Shouxi to the bedside, her head resting on his shoulder, just like she had been on the edge of the cliff in the past.
Lin Shouxi didn't push her away.
She was so tired today that she fell asleep like this.
Lin Shouxi knew that she was really asleep.
He looked at her quiet sleeping face, and thought again of the frozen lake in winter, with the snow on the lake, and the black cliff that was dyed white behind it was his hometown.
A touch of tenderness flashed in the young man's eyes, but it was only for a moment.
The girl slipped a little from his shoulder, to his chest, and then to his thigh, and she fell asleep on his thigh.
If only you were just a normal little girl...... Lin Shouxi thought so.
Although they are two people, their backs are still lonely, and only the pervasive night is intimate with them.
When Xiao He woke up, he was startled.
She slept surprisingly well.
It's been a long time since she's slept so unguarded, is it because he smells so good, or is it ......
When he got up, Xiao He found that he had an extra piece of clothing on his body.
She rubbed the edge of her clothes and asked softly, "I didn't say anything in my dreams just now, did I?" ”
"No, my sister slept very well." Lin Shouxi said.
"You're ......," she replied habitually.
Lin Shouxi didn't answer, but Xiao He could feel that he was smiling, she stared fixedly through the darkness for a while, and suddenly asked like a ghost:
"What if one day, my sister is not well-behaved?"
If Lin Shouxi couldn't see her true face, then he would think it was a girl's joke.
But......
"Then hit you."
"Will the senior brother be willing?"
"See if you like it or not." Lin Shouxi said.
"Who would like it!" Xiao He said angrily: "Senior brother is really bad......"
Xiao He dragged a long tone, relying on the cover of the night, she bent her beautiful eyes, giggled, and smiled very clearly.
Lin Shouxi stretched out his hand and passed through her slightly messy white hair after she first woke up, like a wooden comb flowing through the water.
Xiao He lowered her head, and after a while, she took out a strand of red rope from her arms and shook it in front of Lin Shouxi.
"I'll give this to my brother." Xiao He grabbed his hand and tied it to Lin Shouxi's wrist very casually.
"What is this?" Lin Shouxi asked.
"It's just an ordinary red rope, but it can bless peace." Xiao He said.
"Thank you."
"Don't lose it, if you dare to lose it, my sister will eat you."
Before leaving, Xiao He's palms were bent into claws and made a fierce expression.
……
In the early morning, the sky was covered with black and oppressive clouds, and before the old woman came on crutches to deliver food, Yun Zhenren came first.
There was a flash of thunder in the clouds, and where the thunder disappeared, Yun Zhenren stood there in a brown old Taoist robe, as if it was the manifestation of this thunder light.
He had his left eye open, a wooden sword on his back, and his face was painted with white miserable powder.
Lin Shouxi knew that the miserable white powder was also a disguise, because he had heard Wang Erguan praise him sincerely, 'Yun Zhenren is really handsome, like an immortal'.
When Yun Zhenren came to the courtyard, the boys and girls all woke up from their dreams.
They dressed themselves and came to the courtyard and saluted Yun Zhenren.
Yun Zhenren glanced at them and said lightly:
"Next, it will be your final test."
