Chapter 35 Tingxiang Garden
When the first touch of fish belly white was revealed in the eastern sky, the sword-learning boy in the red mud alley had already finished dancing the first swordsmanship.
In the early morning of summer, the sun rises early, and the teenager also gets up early.
When I was young, I didn't like to practice swords, and even in summer, it was a big difficulty to get up early. However, after being restrained by the master over the years, getting up early has become the norm. Practicing swords under the big peach tree every day, saying a few words to the aunts who came to draw water, and listening to their praise of the diligence of the young man, it has almost become a compulsory course in the morning, and the good mood also comes with these.
Watching Shen practice swords has slowly become Su Yao's hobby.
The injuries on her body are no longer serious, but she can't use her true qi at will like Shen Jing, and swing her sword at will. Her sword was destroyed when she was hunted down before, and now, the white clay that she likes to fiddle with Shen Jing, she will hold it in her hand a few times these days, and she is regaining the feeling of holding the sword before.
Although Bai Ni is not a famous sword on the list of hundred swords, I heard Shen Kuang say that it was also a sword used by the predecessors of the Sword God, so every move and style he danced faintly implied extraordinary sword intent.
The longer she watched it, the more Su Yao could feel the gap between her and Shen Jing.
In her opinion, it is not an exaggeration to say that Shen Kuang is a kendo wizard. If you compare him with the descendants of those famous sects, he must be not far behind. He knows swordsmanship, light skills, medical skills, and even fist and foot kung fu. He has practiced each of his swordsmanship thousands of times, and even if he is so proficient, he still practices it again and again every day, and he never gets tired of it.
In the daily chatting with Shen Jing, she also slowly guessed the secret about their Su family, which was mostly about a sword like the Shen family's Phantom Tooth Sword. It's just that she has never seen that sword, and the swordsmanship is even more clueless.
The Seven Star Sword Technique is the companion swordsmanship of the Phantom Tooth Sword, and Shen Jing doesn't practice it often, and she has only seen it once. Listening to him, the sword god senior told him that the highest realm of the Seven Star Sword Technique, the Heaven and Earth Sword, has a momentum that shakes the heavens and the earth, and under the blade of the sword, no one can match it, even Hanwu will be inferior. It's just that if you want to break through to the highest realm, it is difficult to reach the sky, and what is required is not only talent and understanding, but also continuous use and tempering. Su Yao also practiced swords, although she was not proficient, but she could feel extraordinary for such a mysterious secret book as the Seven Star Sword Technique.
The sword god's predecessor's Hanwu swordsmanship was often practiced by Shen Jing, although he was not wearing the Hanwu sword, and he couldn't exert the strongest power of the Hanwu swordsmanship, but the avenue of heaven and earth looming in the swordsmanship itself once made Su Yao very fascinated, that was the power of the Hanwu swordsmanship, and it was also the second power of the hundred swords list.
Time passes in this city, where there are undercurrents, there are also summer days, riots and tranquility, everywhere. The time of the two days passed in a flash, and tonight was the time for Shen Kuang, Yu Wenyuan, and Jiang Ning to meet in Tingxiangyuan.
Su Yao didn't meet with Yu Wenyuan and Zong Yangqiu that day, so Shen Jing didn't plan to take her with her, but Shen Jing was a little uneasy about leaving her alone at home, so after thinking about it, he still took her with him, but he had to cover it up a little, so that no one could know her identity.
Although it is not an important occasion, the image etiquette must be maintained.
Shen Guo wore a simple blue and black robe tonight, and his long hair, which was originally only held casually, was also tied in a bun on the top of his head. The whole body is dressed unpretentiously, clean and refreshing. Although he does not have the chic of the scribe's white-clothed Shengxue, he is also quite elegant, he is already handsome, so simple to dress is more likable, and he is also a beautiful son.
Su Yao's outfit is somewhat similar to Shen Jing, she is wearing a long black dress, and her face is also tied with a thin layer of black veil, the whole person is shrouded in it, only a pair of deep eyes are exposed outside, there is a little more cold and glamorous beauty, and it also matches her own elegant temperament.
At the beginning of the night, the two walked out of the red mud alley. On the way, I met several uncles who were out in the shade and asked them where they were going.
After all, Tingxiangyuan is a land of smoke and willows, and Su Yao also followed, so Shen Guo only said that he was going out to eat with Su Yao, and the location was vague. When passing by the alley, Uncle Zhu was different from them, and he didn't ask Shen Guo what he was doing with his throat. It's just that Uncle Zhu looked at Shen Jing and Su Yao with a little strange eyes, and sometimes grinned at himself, as if he had thought of something happy.
Shen Jing and Su Yao were confused, and they were a little confused.
didn't talk much with Uncle Zhu, and after leaving the alley, Shen Jing and Su Yao went directly to Tingxiangyuan on the edge of Lishui. Although Lishui is still so lively tonight, along the way, Shen always feels a little different from the past.
The quietness and orderliness of Tingxiang Garden are in stark contrast to the noisy Yingyan of several other green buildings around it. Those Gongzi Wensheng, who should have been frequent visitors here, would rarely be seen tonight. There are almost no guests who go out from the inside, and most of them are guests who have just arrived like Shen Jing. But the difference is that most of the people around are clustered around a person of noble status, and there is only one team of only two people like Shen Jing and Su Yao.
Passing by, occasionally raised eyebrows and looked at them a few times, and most of their eyes fell on Su Yao, she was indeed very beautiful tonight, even if she only showed a pair of eyes, the beauty hidden under it could not be hidden.
Here, the maids who ushered in the delivery are all accustomed to seeing big people and big scenes, so what is the identity of the guests, what net worth, sometimes they can see a rough idea, this is a long-term practice of eyesight, not only to serve those big people to earn a little money, but also to not waste time on the poor, so these people are shrewd.
For example, Shen Jing and Su Yao, who were standing outside the door, were typical marginal characters.
The boy was quite handsome, but it was a pity that he was dressed in plain clothes and the brocade clothes on the guests around him were really obvious, which made it difficult for people to have a good impression. Tonight is different, so they are not surprised that a woman comes, the woman who is with the boy is several layers taller than the boy in terms of temperament alone, but they are alone, and it is difficult to compare with others on an occasion like tonight.
The maids standing at the door were all receiving the big names in their eyes, as for Shen Jing and Su Yao, they were hung by them, maybe they would be able to reach them when everyone greeted them, and they didn't know if it would be the wronged boss.
Shen Kuang and Su Yao stood for a long time, but no one came to bring them in. However, the two of them saw it and were not unhappy because of this, but lowered their heads and laughed at themselves, guessing how long they would have to wait.
Several waves of people who came one after another around have been received, and now only Shen and the two are left outside. The maids also knew that even if their status was at the bottom of tonight's guests, they could not afford to mess with them, so it was only now that a reluctant maid came to greet them, and apologized with a smile that they had waited for a long time.
The maid walked up to Shen Jing and said with a smile: "This son, you have been waiting for a long time, are you also here to attend tonight's banquet?" The smile was very polite and standard, the only difference from before was that it was not from the heart, and it was a little subconsciously stiff.
Shen Jing took out the famous post that Jiang Ning gave him the day before yesterday from his sleeve and handed it over. When the maid saw the name card in Shen Kuang's hand, her eyes widened, and she was very surprised, and it took a long time to come to her senses. Then he looked at Shen Jing in shock and said respectfully: "Distinguished guest, please come with me." ”
I expected the change in the color of the goddess, but I didn't expect it to be so big, and it can be seen that the weight of this famous post is extremely heavy.
The maid's name is Zi Mo, and she is one of the maids who receive them in Tingxiang Garden. Entering the Tingxiang Garden, Zi Mo took Shen Jing and Su Yao straight up to the second floor.
The main building of the garden is a two-story pavilion with a gorgeous decoration, and from the second floor, you can see a huge stage standing in the middle of the first floor. At the moment, several coolly dressed women were dancing in the center of the stage, and near the edge of the stage, there were several women playing the qin and playing the sheng to play the music, they either showed their shoulders or their waists, in short, they were not fully dressed.
The beauty of the stage did not attract much attention from the audience, who occasionally looked at the stage twice, but most of the time they drank on their own or whispered with their tablemates. However, the arrival of Shen Jing and Su Yao attracted a lot of attention, and it seemed that the two of them were more attractive than those women on stage.
Shen Guo walked all the way, and he was also looking at them all the way to meet the eyes of those people.
Xu is there are many people who still have an impression of Shen Qian, so the bustling exchange of heads and ears slowly became louder. Some people think that he is a young talent, so he is not stingy with beautiful words; There are also those who think he is exaggerating, so they disdain it. However, after everyone saw Shen Jing and Su Yao being greeted by the maid on the second floor, everyone's eyes widened, and their expressions were not only surprised but also surprised.
Those who can go up to the second floor are either the upper families in the empire or the big sects in the rivers and lakes, and it is difficult for them to connect a poor and sour boy like Shen Kuan with these two, but I have to admit that the boy really went up.
There are also people who guess that Shen Kuang's identity is extraordinary, and if they look at it at this time, they will inevitably brag to their peers that they have vicious eyes.
In short, Shen Jing and Su Yao went up to the second floor amid the complicated expressions of everyone on the first floor, and their figures gradually disappeared!
