Chapter 46: Sword Soul
He looked at her with a gloomy face, deliberately spit hot air behind her ear, and said frivolously and arrogantly: "It turned out to be a lady's good idea." Although the real lady is beautiful, it is still not as good as the lady, if the lady is willing to go into battle in person, the husband and I are naturally very happy. The moon is bright tonight, and the scenery is beautiful, otherwise the two of us will be here......"
His cold, thin lips were about to dig into her sensitive pink ear piercings, and she shuddered and jerked him away.
"Don't dare to be a concubine, don't bend the concubine body." Yao Yun rubbed her red and swollen face, rolled her eyes and said.
She handed him the small white silk cloth package in her hand, and said loudly: "Oh, General Xue's "Zhou Yixin's Note on the Original Meaning". ”
As a military general, Xiao Chengyu has been yearning for this famous military book for a long time, which can be regarded as temporarily eliminating her boredom and irritability of teasing him.
He opened the small package, his eyes sank. The package contained only a fragment of the original meaning of Zhou Yixin's annotations and a brand-new tracing copy. But "Zhou Yixin's Note on the Original Meaning" has a full fourteen volumes!
He looked up at her, and there was a slight anger in his eyes.
Yao Yun hurriedly pulled his robe and said softly: "During the Pingshi Rebellion, Zhenniang's husband Xue Dalang was forced to recruit into the army, and she was already pregnant at that time. Xue Dalang entrusted this scroll to her. Sixth Master, "Zhou Yixin's Note on the Original Meaning" has a total of fourteen volumes. Two of the volumes were lost in a hurry on the way to escape, and the other volume was trampled by refugees and became a remnant. Now only twelve volumes remain. I personally rearranged the tattered twelve-volume book and traced it one by one. ”
She cleared her throat and said in a deliberately suspenseful tone: "I have read it carefully, and the subtleties of the time, place and people and the method of arranging strange soldiers are really admirable. Naturally, I would like to entrust these twelve books to those who make good use of them. However, I have one more reluctant request. ”
Xiao Chengyu raised his eyes again, but looked at Xue Huai, who was standing respectfully beside him. Seems to have understood what she is asking for!
"Xue Huai come here!" Yao Yun moved in front of Xiao Chengyu, saluted respectfully, and said loudly: "Xue Huai, why don't you hurry up and meet General Xiao who you have in mind!" ”
Xue Huai was stunned, so excited that he wanted to dance and jump up, and in an instant, he calmed down and respectfully knelt on his knees to salute.
"General Xiao, the villain has always admired the general's iron backbone and perseverance. I heard that the two armies were stalemate at that time, and the imperial court had even sent people to persuade peace, but it was the general who stuck to his heart and was not afraid of danger, and personally led 3,000 elite soldiers to go deep into the hinterland of the Beidi rear covertly, and broke through their most vulnerable three western defense lines one by one, and finally joined forces with the 50,000 troops in front of him, and captured the Great Khan of Beidi in one fell swoop. Our border people all applauded and praised you, general......"
Xiao Chengyu interrupted him, if he was allowed to continue, he was afraid that he would not be able to finish it tomorrow. Although he had no expression on his face, he was a little surprised that he knew these battles by heart. Thinking about it, his heart was beating wildly, could it be that Yao Yun also knew him?
"Sixth master, Xue Huai, he admires you very much, I don't know how many books I have read about General Xiao's brave fight against the Beidi thief, and he can keep it in mind." Yao Yun said with a smile, and didn't forget to gesture to Xiao Langjun with his eyes, "I invited two or three dart masters to Xue Huai to teach him to practice, and the masters all said that he has a good foundation and talent, sixth master, you take a closer look, if there is a chance, it is better to ......."
Xue Huai finally understood Sister Yao's good intentions, and hurriedly said respectfully and sincerely: "General Xiao, please also accept Xue Huai as an apprentice, Xue Huai must practice hard, and in the future, he will personally go to the battlefield to kill Beidi, make meritorious contributions, and defend the country." ”
Xiao Chengyu clenched his fist with one hand and tapped the handle of the chair, and then motioned for him to go outside the room.
"See clearly!"
Xiao Chengyu stood majestically in the middle of the courtyard, took out the saber that he had just put away, and the silver sword that flashed with a cold light was ready to go.
The silver light sword first slowly rose up, like a silk gilt silver white belt fluttering in the wind, free and happy. In an instant, the silver sword danced faster and faster, the sword wind was fierce, and the momentum was like a broken bamboo, and it suddenly turned into a cold and sonorous agile silver dragon, coiling left and right, flying wantonly, and flying over the dragon gate.
His eyes are like twinkling stars in the sky, his posture is vigorous and fast, quiet as a tiger, moving like a flying dragon, slow as a cloud, swift as lightning, and steady and chic between the changes of moves, which is in a class of its own. Where the sword wind passed, the tall pear trees in front of them swayed gently, and the white pear petals fell down with the wind, and the flower rain was unrestrained and free.
Heaven and earth are long, everything is boundless, and it seems that he is the only one left in heaven and earth.
Yao Yun stared at him in a daze, as if she had become a wooden pillar and froze in place, her brown eyes flickered with shock and curiosity, she only felt that she had never seen such a chic and wanton swordsmanship.
She reacted and hurriedly took rice paper and a paintbrush to paint, not only to record his moves for Xue Huai, but also to preserve the heroic swordsmanship of General Xiao, who was like thunder.
After a long time, the sound of silence, the bright moon in the sky, leaving the breeze blowing in the face, the pear blossom-scented air diffused with the gentle sound of the pear tree branches and leaves swaying and rubbing.
"This is the most basic Yuan Zhen Twelve-style swordsmanship in the Xiao family's art of war. Within three days, if you can practice this set of swordsmanship, General Ben may think about it. ”
Xue Huai saluted excitedly and said, "Thank you, general, Xue Huai will not let you down." ”
Xiao Chengyu put away his saber and walked to the corridor, when he saw the little lady kneeling on the cold and bitter stone brick floor, burying her head in writing, scribbling and writing, and her slender finger joints were stained with mottled ink. He bowed down to take a look, and was even more shocked to close his mouth.
Just this time of the swordsmanship demonstration, Yao Yun had already scribbled the eight moves in the second half of the Yuan Zhen Twelve-style swordsmanship, which not only resembled but also looked like a god!
He asked nonchalantly, "Did you draw it so quickly the first time you saw it?" ”
Yao Yun was still immersed in painting, and said in a daze: "Well, sixth master, don't talk first, I'm afraid I'll forget it later......"
Xiao Chengyu pursed his lips, maybe he really picked up a treasure!
Half an hour later, Yao Yun finally moved his stiff and sore neck and knees. She sorted out the drawn paper and bound it into a book, hoping to help Xue Huai.
She knew that the real mother and the others were in trouble, so she specially asked Xiao Chengyu if she could stay here for a few days, but she didn't expect General Xiao to readily agree! To be able to leave this enemy for a few days, she naturally can't ask for it, and she also has important things to deal with.
At night, the room was still brightly lit, the candlesticks flickered and flickered, and the thin figures of several people were reflected on the wall.
