Cold as frost's eyes were bright, pulling the moon in the water to look at it together, the two looked at it for a while, the gray-haired old man coughed twice on the side, the moon in the water came back to his senses and hurriedly walked up.

The gray-haired old man leaned down, spread his hands, hugged the two of them left and right, and his body suddenly rose into the air. After a while, the gray-haired old man took them to the foot of the mountain, and laid down Leng Rushuang in a tavern, and a gray-haired old woman came out with a cane, and when she saw Leng Rushuang, she quickly took her in her arms, and she said to the gray-haired old man, "If it weren't for you, I really don't know how to explain to the old man." ”

"Be careful next time." After that, the gray-haired old man got up again, his body swept away, and he had already flown out a few feet away, and the moon in the water widened his eyes, and when he came back to his senses, the cold figure had disappeared from his sight.

The gray-haired old man brought the moon to a river where there was a brig with a square bow and a spacious deck, but it was empty, as if there was no one else. The gray-haired old man was as light as a swallow and quietly fell to the ground. Shui Zhongyue raised her eyes and looked around, and couldn't help but say, "Where is this?" ”

"This is your home from now on." The gray-haired old man said indifferently. Shui Zhongyue raised his eyes and looked around, as if looking at his new home, and after a while, he asked, "When can I start learning martial arts?" ”

"Now." The gray-haired old man smiled slightly.

Things change and stars change, wind and rain, the moon in the water is growing stronger and stronger under the teaching of the gray-haired old man, and in a trance, more than ten spring and autumn seasons have passed. The gray-haired old man accepted him as a righteous son, but rarely mentioned the past, Shui Zhongyue only knew that his name was Yinguanhou, and he had a nickname called "Sword Demon", and he was once an indispensable peerless master in the Central Plains martial arts.

Looking at the rushing river, the tides change, and the moon and day in the water practice diligently, never wasted and lazy. Finally, five years later, with the mirror knife given to him by the Marquis of the Silver Crown, he personally killed his father's enemy, cut off his head, and took it to the tombstone to worship his deceased father.

"Daddy, the boy has avenged you." The moon in the water stared at the tombstone silently with her eyes like blades.

The angry snow is mighty, and the banks of the Qingjiang River are silvery white, almost without variegation. Under the frost in the sky, the snow is more than a foot deep, and the sky is covered in silver, the pavilions and pavilions are covered with snow, and the streets are like washing lead.

The pale willows on both sides of the river bank hang low, and the treetops are covered with light veil of snow and frost, which is surprisingly pure and white. After the twilight sinks to the west mountain, the branches are sprinkled with a layer of golden afterglow, the scene is like a dream, beautiful like a silk painting.

The night is as cool as water, the cold incense boat is moored on the snowy Qingjiang River, the main color of its hull is white, embellished with red, elegant and noble. The building craftsmanship on the double-layer painting boat is complex and exquisite, exquisite, and the dragon reliefs on the cylinders are interlocking, and the layers are scattered. The pavilion on the second floor of the cold incense boat is the most chic, with hexagonal cornices and corners, and the gauze curtain gently hanging in all directions, and looking down is the huge and spacious deck.

Under the faint moonlight, a leaf suddenly appeared on the left side of the cold incense boat. The owner of the boat is the moon in the water. Over the years, he has grown a lot, with broad shoulders and a strong tiger body, and a majestic shore like a mountain standing at the stern of a boat. His eyes were scorching, his essence was shining, his hands were carrying pulp, he was skilful and sophisticated, and his boat was as light as flying.

On the endless Qingjiang River, the surrounding is silent, the wind suddenly rises, and the snowflakes turn into tens of millions of silver needles, flying in all directions. The moon in the water gently stroked the hem, shook her body, and suddenly rose from the ground. In an instant, he swept through the air, as light as a swallow, and landed quietly on the deck.

The moon in the water raised his eyes and looked around, and there were no servants and boatmen on the deck, and he couldn't help frowning, and was thinking about how to ask someone to pass it on, when the sound of the zither suddenly sounded, and the ethereal sound was like a valley in the valley.

The moon in the water did not study the music, I don't know what tune to play, but I feel that the sound is beautiful, refreshing, sometimes emotional, sometimes crying. He closed his eyes, his heart was like water, wandering in the world of zheng, listening to it as if he was fascinated.

Suddenly, the sound of the zither stopped, and the surroundings were suddenly silent, and the needle drop could be heard. The moon in the water swayed, and swept into the hexagonal pavilion, with a plaque above that read the moon pavilion. He thought about it for a while, the lilac Luo gauze tent covered the entire pavilion, and the night breeze blew the tent, with a fluttering appearance, noble and elegant.

The moon in the water hesitated for a long time, took a deep breath, lifted the tent, and walked into the room. The four corners of the moon viewing pavilion are placed braziers, the charcoal fire is red, the room is warm like spring, and the ground is covered with soft wool carpet. Hanging landscape silk paintings around, potted flowers on both sides, red plum blossoms, elegant and elegant, fragrant.

In the center of the moon pavilion, there is a lotus flower tray red sandalwood long table, a few times ago is a golden silk nanmu chaise long, the whole extends outward, three groups of square several low couches are in a semi-arc shape around the long number. The pen inkstone is placed on the long table, and the guzheng is placed, and the guzheng owner sits on the couch, and a pair of white jade hands caress the guzheng, elegant and dignified, and generous.

The moon in the water looked up and was secretly surprised. But I saw a woman with a beautiful national color and exquisite curves, with a high bun and clouds, wearing a plain white Luo gauze snow suit, and the moonlight was absolutely beautiful and beautiful, like a fairy.

The woman gestures, elegant and noble, like a fairy of the Guanghan Palace who does not eat fireworks in the world. A pair of long sleeves hang down in the wind, and the white and delicate skin and elegant outfit complement each other, setting off her alluring appearance.

The woman wears a ferret fur cloak, the outer plain brocade is smooth as muscle, lined with soft and fluffy mink fur, and a sleeve-length snow coat, which looks elegant and tranquil, pure and beautiful like a budding lotus. Under the silk-like silky hair, the willow eyebrows are slender, flying obliquely into the temples, and a pair of charming and dignified eyes are as clear as a mirror.

The moon in the water looked at the shuttle, only to see the woman's collar, the slender jade neck like a swan, with her undulating mountains and rivers, the side ridges into the peak of the crisp breasts, not a grip of the slender waist, each other between the bright and bright, dizzying. Shui Yue is a man, a normal man, and he is rightfully thrilled and drunk.

The woman raised her pretty face lightly, her beautiful eyes stared, and it was her turn to look at the moon in the water. The eyebrows of the moon in the water are thick, straight up, typical sword eyebrows. There are dark eyes hidden in his deep eyes, which look like the water of a secluded pool, and like a galaxy in the night sky.

The bridge of the moon nose in the water is high, the facial features are distinct, the handsome and rough masculine charm, the upturned corners of the mouth are full of confidence, and she looks calm and fearless. His back is as wide as a tiger, and his whole body exudes a terrifying charm, and his aura is majestic and heroic.

Shui Zhongyue was dressed in a strong suit, mainly black, supplemented by purple, and held a mirror knife in her right hand, with a blade length of three feet and eight inches, and a handle of one foot and two inches, wrapped in pitch black leather. After a long time, the four eyes met, and the woman said softly: "Your Excellency is a water boy?" ”

"Exactly." The moon in the water bowed her hand, "The girl is as cold as frost?" The woman was silent for a long time, nodded slightly, and the moon in the water was in her heart, after more than ten years, he had always wanted to see her, and now he had fulfilled his wish, and his face was happy. Shui Yue asked, "Do you recognize me?" ”

Leng as frost, he said: "The old man of the Silver Crown Hou mentioned you. She picked up the long sleeves of her robe, and slowly took out a letter with a faint tulip from the cuff, and the handwriting on the note was flowing freely. She looked forward to it and said softly, "Ling Zun is a water gull who is a dart master, and was robbed by bandits twelve years ago, and his soul was broken on the spot. Due to fate, the old-timers of Yinguanhou accepted you as a righteous son, taught martial arts, and helped you take revenge. ”

Shui Zhongyue was stunned when she heard this, her eyes were stunned, and the fire ignited in her heart due to the reunion was instantly extinguished. Leng Rushuang's words are clear, flat and straightforward, but they are paraphrased on letterhead, and there is no emotion at all. He glanced at her as cold as frost, only to see that her face was flat, her expression was detached, and a sense of rustiness arose.

The moon in the water secretly smiled bitterly, she and herself were only one side, more than ten years apart, how could she remember the osmanthus cake? Her appearance is an important turning point in her life, but she is just a passer-by, and it is not self-inflicted to unilaterally think that others remember this matter?

Leng Rushuang seemed to feel that the moon in the water had something to say, his eyebrows moved slightly, and his beautiful eyes stared at him quietly. Mizuki could have told the story, but he refused, because it was a risky bet. If Leng Rushuang vaguely remembered this, it would be fine, if she had no memory, it would only be embarrassing for the two of them to bring it up again.

Shui Zhongyue sighed lightly, thinking to herself, but the past of childhood, why bother to embarrass others? After secretly making up her mind, Shui Zhongyue regrouped her mood and said leisurely: "Miss Leng, do you know why I came?" ”

Leng Rushuang raised his jade neck and said solemnly: "I know, the old man of the Silver Crowned Marquis asked you to protect me." ”

The corners of Shui Yue's mouth lifted slightly, "Finally, there is something I know about the same as you." ”

"What do you mean?" Leng Rushuang frowned lightly and blinked his beautiful eyes.

"Isn't it unfair that you know where I came from, but I don't know where you come from?" The moon shrugged her arm.

"Everything I know is what the Silver Crown Marquis senior said, not my intention to investigate." Cold as frost, his face turned cold, and a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

Shui Zhongyue was shocked when she saw this, and she was immediately annoyed and at a loss. Although the person in front of him is as cold as frost, he is no longer the little girl who gave him osmanthus cake back then. Even if he didn't know the origin of Leng Rushuang, he speculated from this exquisite cold incense boat and the silk satin on her body that if she was not a rich family, at least she was a famous lady, and her words were a little light.

Shui Zhongyue said apologetically: "I didn't mean that, Miss Leng, don't misunderstand." He secretly wondered if he wanted to ask her if she remembered the past, but he snickered when he begged the other party not to take him away.

"If it's a misunderstanding, then it's done." Cold as frost and jade as ice, her eyes shot a sharp color. Shui Zhongyue didn't know what to do, and after a long time, he sighed lightly and diverted the topic, "Dare to ask Miss Leng what happened, why did my stepfather specially order me to come?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere plummeted again, and he glared at him as cold as frost, "What the water boy said seems to be reluctant?" If so, cold as frost will not bother the water boy! It's late at night, forgive me for sending off guests. ”

"Don't get me wrong, cold girl!" Shui Zhongyue's face was embarrassed, "I have always been cautious, since I was entrusted by my father-in-law to protect Miss Leng, I always know what happened, so as to guard against the enemy." ”

Leng Rushuang listened to his words neither humble nor arrogant, and his words were reasonable, so his complexion eased slightly, and he said calmly: "It seems that I misunderstood Shui Gongzi." She pulled out another letterhead, which was scribbled. The note reads: "I swear by the note, until the full moon deadline, I Cui Huashou will spend the Spring Festival with the beautiful woman." ”

Shui Zhongyue was shocked, "Flower thief? ”

Leng Rushuang raised his eyebrows with anger, and said with disdain, "This person is known as a spicy hand to destroy flowers, and he is the world's leading light skill, but unfortunately the devil was born from the heart and went astray, and so far countless women have been murdered." ”

Shui Yue pondered for a long time and asked, "If I kill him, will you be safe?" ”

"You can't kill him." Cold as frost and gently shake the head of the mantis.

"Why?" The moon in the water sword eyebrows slightly, and the competitive spirit was aroused.

"Because he's not coming." His eyes were as cold as frost and his eyes were shining brightly, and he stretched out his hand to point to the letterhead, and said casually, "I wrote this letter." ”

"W-What the hell is going on?" The more the moon in the water listens, the more confused it becomes. Cold as frost, his sleeves were flush, he gave a salute, shook his head lightly, and said word by word: "I came to Qingcheng County this time, and there is another important matter, in order to avoid the interference of thieves, I was forced to have this plan in desperation." ”

Shui Zhongyue suddenly realized, and slapped her palm: "I see, Miss Leng deliberately told everyone that you were targeted by flower thieves, if you still appear in Qingcheng County, everyone will think that you are prepared." ”

"I'm ashamed to say that I wanted to bluff, but the number of thieves has increased instead of decreasing, which is unbearable." Cold as frost sighed softly.

"Knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, they prefer to go to the tiger mountains, don't they believe that you are prepared?"

"They are willing to take the risk to come, planning to throw the blame on Cui Huashou after committing the murder, and there is no proof of death." Leng Rufrost frowned lightly, and said faintly: "A wise man has a thousand thoughts, there must be a mistake, this matter is my miscalculation." ”

Shui Zhongyue finally understood and asked, "Can't you cancel the trip?" ”

"If you can hide for a while, you can't hide for a lifetime." Cold as frost, the mantis lowered its head and sighed. Shui Zhongyue pondered for a moment, looked around, and showed a puzzled look, "Why don't you see the other servants?" ”

"Leng Rushuang knew that the water boy was coming, so let the ladies go back to the room early to rest."

"How many people are on board?" Moon in the water asked.

"There are only four people on the cold incense boat, and none of them know how to fight." Cold as frost is reported according to the truth.

"Without a boatman, who will handle the sails?"

The eyes that were as cold as frost looked at the moon in the water, and the bud-like cherry blossoms trembled slightly, and they wanted to stop talking. After a long time, she slowly spoke, "In order to avoid the suspicion of men and women, I ordered the boatman to go to the shore to stay overnight. Leng Rushuang suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said: "The water boy is the righteous son of the old predecessor of the Silver Crown, of course there is no problem." By the way, I've sent a guest room to clean up. ”

"The guest room doesn't have to." Shui Yue chuckled, "I'm used to sleeping in a flat boat. ”

Cold as frost, her pretty face suddenly cold, pursed her delicate thin lips, and asked, "Could it be that the water boy doesn't believe in cold as frost and suspects that my arrangement is improper?" ”

Shui Zhongyue didn't expect her to react violently, and hurriedly added, "Miss Leng is too careful, there are really two reasons why I don't stay in Guifang." Shui Zhongyue shrugged her shoulders and smiled wryly, "Since this ship has been targeted, the other party must be careful of sneak attacks, so they can't imagine that the person responsible for protecting you is actually on the flat boat." ”

"Another reason?" Cold as frost asked.
