Chapter 166: After the full moon is parting

"I'll read this sword book again, in this process, you don't need to guide me, it's my blessing to remember how much." Xu Xiuzhu picked up the sword book and began to look through it.

Xia Ze nodded.

For a full hour, Xu Xiuzhu was concentrating on studying the sword book, and from the surprised look on his face from time to time, he could judge how amazing this sword book was.

Xia Ze, on the other hand, sat cross-legged on the chair and used the sword trick to refine the sword qi over and over again. He closed his eyes tightly, and inspected the Qi Mansion and the hundred remains of his body with the method of internal vision, only to see a Xuanhuang Sword Qi, like a rainbow hanging upside down on the edge of the fist spring, and after quickly walking through his own size Zhou Tian, he began to slowly swim through the Qi Mansion.

That unstoppable Xuanhuang sword qi, for some reason, became cautious, not daring to make the slightest sound, Xia Ze's face turned red at this moment because he was engrossed in controlling the sword qi. That sword aura stagnated, and he couldn't help but sweat profusely, and then instantly turned into billowing white smoke.

Xu Xiuzhu stopped to look at Xia Ze halfway, and knew that his sword qi was sluggish, so he continued to read with confidence.

At first, Lu Chunyang personally took him to master the luck trick of this sword trick, Xia Ze didn't feel how complicated this sword trick was, and it wasn't until he tried it alone a few times, and none of them were able to successfully complete the three big and small Zhou Tian, and then he suddenly realized that he was a little carried away.

The Sword Ding Jue, as the name suggests, is to use himself as a smelting furnace, and the sword intent in his body is a sword waiting to be smelted and forged.

This feeling is not comfortable, every time Xia Ze carries that sword intent, it seems to be in a melting pot that does not see the light of day and is extremely hot, if the sword intent flows a little faster, it is fine, but if it is like now, the sword qi is sluggish, just like there is an incomparably heavy weighing stone hanging on the top of each of the five internal organs, and if it moves slightly, it will affect the whole body, which is extremely unbearable.

Compared to the boiling of the body in the illusion of boxing, this sword tripod also has the same effect, if it weren't for the fact that he could feel the sword intent a little more dignified and thick every time, Xia Ze might not be able to hold on.

He was finally a little impatient by the unbearable scorching heat and pressure, so he used another fist intent to push the sword intent that refused to move forward, and the trick that had been blocked for a long time was finally like a clear spring flowing through the bluestone in the mountains, and the burning sensation suddenly disappeared without a trace, replaced by incomparable coolness and tranquility.

It's just that before Xia Ze could savor this pleasant taste, the two qi of gods and demons on the three souls, like a fierce beast that had been violated in the territory, burst out of the nest in an instant.

That sword aura and fist intent, like a frightened bird, fled prematurely.

In this way, the fist intent and sword intent that Xia Ze had managed to control was like a building that was about to fall, barely sustaining it for a while, and then collapsed with a bang.

He slumped in his chair, his face a little ugly, and after exhaling a few breaths of turbidity, his face was full of bitterness.

Sure enough, if you want to hurry, you can't reach it, and the move just now not only didn't help you boil your sword intent, but even almost left some hidden dangers.

Xu Xiuzhu has just started, and the speed of turning the book has slowed down, Xia Ze glanced at it, a hundred or so pages of sword book, Xu Xiuzhu read about seven or eight pages, and then stopped turning it, just like an old monk who entered the meditation and did not move.

Xia Ze looked out of the door, Pan Chao was carrying a pot of wine, and had been waiting outside for a long time, but he was worried that his rash entry would interrupt the cultivation of the two, so he had been waiting outside the door.

"How long have you been waiting outside?" Xia Ze walked out of the door, turned around and gently closed the door, turned back to Pan Chao and asked.

Pan Chao was holding something in one hand, touching the back of his head with some embarrassment in the other, and said with a smile: "It's only been half an hour, seeing you silent inside, I still feel strange, I guess it's cultivation, I didn't go in, it's not in the way." I heard He Xu say that you are going to leave for Daqi Dongjing tomorrow, and I have to say goodbye to you, the master."

Xia Ze glanced at the pot of wine that Pan Chao was carrying, and said with his arms around his chest, "Okay, look at you like this, you are prepared today."

"Xia Ze, I'm also leaving, in a few days, I'm going to go to the Great Qi White Deer Academy to study, it's all arranged by the governor and my brother." Pan Chao brought the jar of wine to his chest and muttered.

He slapped his thin chest with the other hand

's crackling sound, as if he wanted to slap all the manhood and sorrow that he didn't have in his life, "You also know that I don't like to study since I was a child, and I always live under the protection of my brother, I am a mediocre talent, but when I go to that Bailu Academy, in the face of those sour rotten Confucians, as well as the old masters who open their mouths and close their mouths, in order not to lose my eldest brother's face, I still have to restrain myself a little, and I have to think of a way to be stunned, and most of the days of drinking like this will not be in the future...... 」

Xia Ze was silent and grinned.

Seeing that Xia Ze didn't react, Pan Chao suddenly felt a little weak, in fact, the number of times he drank in his life could be counted with a slap, so he was not a veteran of the wine field, but the young and immature heart couldn't help but feel that only by drinking recklessly could he be worthy of this parting.

It's like when we were young, we always felt that unruly was the most chic thing.

Pan Chao began to regret his childish move, and yes, Xia Ze took He Xu, how far he walked, how many beautiful rivers and lakes he had seen, and his heart had already surpassed ordinary people, how could he accompany him to do such a naïve thing.

Just when Pan Chao was eager to find a crack in the ground to get into, Xia Ze, who had never spoken, spoke.

"You just carry a jar of wine, and you don't have a dish, the wine fairy Pan Chao, what do you mean? You want to drink me to death?" Xia Ze circled around him, pretending to be dissatisfied, but the smile on his face was almost uncontrollable.

Pan Chao was stunned, and then said ecstatically, "Yes! Some! I'll let Grandma Gu do it!"

Xia Ze waved his hand: "Don't bother the old man, I have a good place to go......

"A good place? Ah....." Before Pan Chao could understand, Xia Ze grabbed his hand, swished, and flew onto the roof.

Even though Pan Chao is now a martial artist in the Second Realm, when he saw this battle, he couldn't help but scream in fright, and even the jar of mud-sealed locust flower brew in his hand was almost thrown away by him.

Xia Ze took him, quickly stepped on the eaves of a house, walking through the streets, the funny thing is that every time the two of them stepped on a roof, there would be a very vicious woman, thinking that a wild cat ran over the roof, came out to curse the street.

"That's it, I'll go down and get food, you wait for me here."

Xia Ze clapped his hands, jumped forward, and went to the wine shop below, not long after this big battle, people have not yet come out of the great suffering and sorrow, and naturally business is bleak. Xia Ze put down a piece of silver on the counter table, said a few words to the surprised shopkeeper, and jumped back to the roof with a suckling pig in his arms.

"Right here?" Pan Chao seemed to be a little incredulous and wondered.

"Well, right here." Xia Ze smiled, undeniable.

In the restaurant below, there were guys who kept coming out with plates of side dishes, and Xia Ze used a rope with hooks to pull up the basket with plates of dishes, and spread it all over the roof little by little.

Pan Chaoyuan looked at it, the sun was setting, and the orange light projected the loneliness of autumn on everyone's faces, and the great sadness completely disappeared as the sun wheel completely submerged in the West Mountain.

Night City, soon a cold moon and a sky full of stars will take its place.

Pan Chao slapped his thigh and shouted arrogantly, "Xia Ze! I'll have to toast you first!"

Xia Ze grinned at the corner of his mouth, untied the mud seal of the wine jar, and quickly poured a cup of acacia flower brew for it.

With a violent cough, the pungency in his throat began to turn into a warmth, and he quickly traveled all over his limbs. Pan Chao wiped his mouth, and the heroism in his chest climbed to the extreme, it turned out that there was such a good place to drink, reckless, too fucking reckless! Joyfully!

Xia Ze, who was in the distance, took the opportunity to add fuel and vinegar, and gave a thumbs up and exclaimed: "Throughout the ages, if you want to talk about wine and heroism when drinking, you Pan Chao deserve to be the first person!"

Pan Chao shook his dizzy head, a little carried away, although the wine was still so spicy.

There was a hearty laugh beside him, and Xia Ze and Pan Chao turned their heads to see that it was Xu Xiuzhu and Lin Luqing.

Lin Lu glanced at Xia Ze innocently, as if

It's like complaining that he didn't call her to drink with him.

Xu Xiuzhu walked over and asked with a smile, "Since you toasted Xia Ze with a cup, do you have to toast me with a cup?"

Pan Chao nodded honestly and said, "That's natural."

Xia Ze was notoriously discerning, and quickly poured a full glass, and Pan Chao, in order to show respect, held the wine with a steady hand and drank it all.

Xia Ze and Xu Xiuzhu looked at each other and smiled, the fox's tail was high, there is nothing that makes Jiu Mengzi happier than persuading people who never drink to drink, especially those who are persuaded to drink, they are still so bright.

Pan Chao didn't choke on this, but there was a feeling of dizziness lingering in his mind for a long time, his eyes were a little dull, and his face felt a little hot when the wind blew. By the time he realized that it was not possible to go on like this, Lin Luqing had already walked in front of him, waiting for him to toast himself.

Lin Luqing held the wine glass, the autumn wind blew the sideburns and hair like willow branches, and said coldly: "You saluted Xia Ze and Xu Xiuzhu, but you don't respect me for a cup?"

Pan moved towards the Adam's apple, he had seen the cruel methods of this girl, it was really murderous without blinking, but at this moment, he had a feeling of being fascinated by Xia Ze and Xu Xiuzhudao, and the anger in his chest was worried and didn't know who to vent.

He said angrily: "Xia Ze is my master, Xu Xiuzhu can be regarded as my uncle, I will toast them, it is right, Miss Lin, I am stupid, you tell me, are you my master, or my ancestor?"

Xu Xiuzhu's back was cold when he heard this, if he wasn't afraid that Lin Luqing would be angry with him, he couldn't help but give a thumbs up this time.

Not wanting Lin Luqing's unusually normal expression, he raised his pointed chin and asked, "How do you know that I won't be your master?"

Pan Chao glanced at her, shook his head and smiled, "You? You don't have a chance, I've seen the smile in the eyes of the master when he wiped the sword, and when he practiced a set of swordsmanship that I had never seen before, as if he was thinking about a certain girl in his heart, and the way the master looked at you, it wasn't like this."

Xia Ze would only dare to drink with his head bored in embarrassment, while Xu Xiuzhu was waiting to watch the show with a bad smile.

Pan Chao will finally have the courage to fight against this girl, he will never dare on weekdays, if you want me to say that wine is strong and courageous, this generous statement, Pan Chao felt that he had lost face and earned it back.

The next moment, Lin Luqing's fingertips were raised, Pan Chao only felt a chill in his ears, and a cold silver light swept past his ears with lightning speed, and when he turned his head, he saw that the silver needle pierced deeply into the beam behind him, more than four inches.

It was just a flick of her fingers.

Lin Luqing pinched a silver needle in his fingertips, tilted his head and squinted and smiled, "I'll give you a chance to drink all this jar of wine, otherwise, you know......

Pan Chao was frightened like this, most of the wine woke up, picked up the jar of wine, and drank it from the cow.

It wasn't until Pan Chao vomited that Lin Luqing was satisfied with the wine glass and sat next to Xia Ze.

Xia Ze hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Pan Chao is not very good at drinking, and it is inevitable that he will lose his words after drinking, why should you bother with him?"

Lin Luqing raised his eyebrows: "So what he said is not true?"

Xia Ze shook his head and sat down precariously and said, "No, what he said is true."

The grief and loss in Lin Luqing's eyebrows were well hidden, she took a sip of wine and muttered in a low voice, "Everyone knows something, I want him to talk more."

Xia Ze was silent, only to hear Lin Luqing ask again, "I heard that you are going to Daqi Dongjing tomorrow, is it true?"

The boy nodded.

Lin Luqing smiled slyly: "Then I will follow you and go with you."

Xia Ze didn't sigh, and couldn't bear to look at the wetness in the girl's eyes.

The hazy mist in Lin Luqing's eyes gradually thickened, and she covered up that trace of emotion with a smile: "Xia Ze, let me ask you a question, you must answer honestly, if you don't speak, it means that you agree to let me go with you." But I wonder if if you meet that girl after traveling thousands of miles, you won't be able to let me follow her again

You're done."

Just like Lin Luqing said, in the love between men and women in the world, some questions actually know the answer in their hearts when they blurt out, but the person who opens his mouth often hopes to find a slight turn from the mouth of the person who answers.

Xia Ze didn't hesitate at all, and said, "Miss Lin, you are my friend, I can't lie to you, if I see that girl, I must not be able to leave with you. Even if that girl doesn't like you to go with me, then I won't agree to let you go to Dongjing with me."

"That's ......," Lin Luqing turned around.

The next sentence seemed to tell Xia Ze, and it also seemed to tell himself, "Don't worry, I will go as far as Dongjing with you."

The two drank as usual.

Only Pan Chao on the side, because he was frightened, fell into Xu Xiuzhu's arms, crying silently with the strength of the wine, and chattering like an old man.

He beat his chest and cried bitterly: "Brother Xu, I'm useless, I'm embarrassed by the old Pan family, my eldest brother Pan Gu is so brilliant, I am so honored, such a talent is shallow, and I went to Bailu Academy......

Xu Xiuzhu patted his arm silently: "Eh, this is a bad word, the virtuous brother is brilliant, without too much knowledge, it has sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and it can't be stopped, it will be a world-shattering talent in the future, don't favor one over the other, come, drink this glass of wine, and puff up your chest to be my good son!"

Pan Chao wept when he heard this, and drank a cup happily.

Pan Chao burped, waved his hand again and again, and said, "Brother Xu is too famous, how can a person like me who describes obscenity be able to afford the title of amazing talent, besides, this wine is too strong, I am a little overwhelm......ed."

Xu Xiuzhu was silent, brought a glass of wine, put it in front of Pan Chao, and said righteously: "You take a look at this wine, and take a look at your celestial honor in the troubled court, that lady is not shy when she sees it, I am afraid that if a rural woman sees it, she will be ashamed of herself. I, Xu Xiuzhu, have traveled south and north, and I can be regarded as a handsome young man, but when I see you, I have to avoid the edge for the time being."

Pan Chao looked at himself in the glass of wine, stunned, and didn't want Xu Xiuzhu on the other side to quickly put away his evil smile and slapped his thigh: "What are you waiting for!" Let's go brother!"

Pan Chao was confused, poured another glass of wine, and the whole person smirked: "Brother Xu, I am bored in my chest, I don't have much to do, if I drink it again, I will die, and at this moment, I seem to feel like I am in your way."

When Xu Xiuzhu heard this, he suddenly got up, walked to the edge of an eaves, stared at the cold moon with his hands behind his back, and the Beidou-like spirit of Mount Tai in the martial arts rivers and lakes, slowly turned his head and smiled: "This wine, it's delicious, right?"

Pan Chao was stunned for a long time, and finally laughed, picked up the wine bowl and shouted, "Let's go!"

"Wow! You secretly ate alone, and didn't take us with you!" He Xu didn't know when, he took Ayu's hand and walked over from another part of the eaves.

Bai Lu tacitly sat next to Ayu.

The group didn't have too many words, they had their own thoughts, silently ate and drank food, and enjoyed the bright moon together.

Firecrackers were set off in the streets, and after a crackling fire, smoke filled and slowly rose up. Only then did everyone remember that today was already the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Pan Chao lay down on the eaves, drunk with wine, and muttered, "I don't know if I can really read a gentleman's atmosphere when I go to Bailu Academy." If one day, the Great Zhou Iron Cavalry overwhelms the realm, can I, a martial artist in the Second Realm who is not high or low, fight to the death and not retreat, and defend my family and country."

Xia Ze put down the wine bowl and knocked on his chest: "It doesn't matter where it is, it doesn't matter where it is, it doesn't matter if you don't accumulate steps, you can't reach thousands of miles, if you want to really do something, it's nothing more than your heart."

Pan Chao rubbed his heart, his eyes gradually became firm, and said with a smile: "Thank you master for your guidance, the disciple must remember that he will never embarrass you, and I also hope that the master can realize what he wants as soon as possible, let me meet that master, is it really as rumored that the country and the city."

Xia Ze was overjoyed, and Lin Luqing on the side was silent.

He Xu gnawed a chicken leg in his mouth, drooped his head and asked Xu Xiuzhu, "Brother Xu, are you going to leave too......

composed

Xiuzhu was a little surprised, rubbed his head and asked, "Little ghost, I haven't told anyone, how do you know?"

He Xu shook his head and said, "I guessed, Brother Xu, don't forget, I still owe you a personal favor, in Taoxi Temple, you helped me fly the eaves and walk the wall, but it's not that I He Xu didn't pay it back, it's that I don't know for the time being, how to repay you for this favor."

Xu Xiuzhu choked, there was a hint of relief in his eyes, he patted He Xu's shoulder and said, "Little ghost, from today on, practice boxing, sword training, study hard, listen to your sister and Xia Ze's words, I can be regarded as your half boxing master, I will meet you in the Ethereal Prefecture in the future, I will check."

He sighed, took out a silver ingot into his arms and put it in He Xu's hand, patted He Xu's ass and scolded with a smile: "This is the New Year's money for you, stinky boy, I have never seen such a clever boy as you on this trip, remember, don't just grow tall and not have a brain, whether you are a scholar or a martial artist in the future, you must have good thoughts."

He Xu nodded, looked at Xia Ze, and silently got closer, only to see a white little fat hand stretched out from Xia Ze's arms, and quickly grabbed a pig's trotter and recycled it.

He Xu opened Xia Ze's shirt and saw that Swallow Heaven was gnawing on pig's trotters, barking at him with big teeth and stupidly.

He Xu also sighed, shook his head and said, "You are so virtuous, how can I rest assured that you can take care of Xia Ze......

Swallowing the sky was a little uncertain, so Xia Ze gently looked at He Xu's head is a chestnut.

Everyone laughed, and the bright moon in the night sky rose to the highest point and shone brightly.

The next day, there was a river pier somewhere outside the city.

Pan Chao handed the package in his hand to Xia Ze and said, "Xia Ze, my eldest brother is discussing something important with the new Chenghuang these days, and he can't come to see it off in person, he himself is deeply regretful, but he has already settled the relationship, at this time, the siege of Zhengzhi Night City is not long over, the waterway may be safer than the land route, as for the entanglement in this baggage, you deserve it, and there are some waterways to pass the plate and food."

Xia Ze nodded and took the package: "Then I won't be polite to you, and thank Master Pan for me."

Xia Ze rubbed He Xu's head and smiled at Pan Chao: "These days, I have to bother you and take care of He Xu and Ayu."

"That's nature, it's just that we can meet again when we don't know what year or month we will part." Pan Chao said.

Xu Xiuzhu paused: "This time I am going to the northern part of the Ethereal Prefecture, those relatively small secular dynasties, where there is a war, I am not only cultivating the mind, but also practicing the sword, as long as the Great Zhou dares to invade the land of Great Qi, I will definitely rush back."

Xia Ze nodded: "Sending you a thousand miles must be goodbye in the end, and we will say goodbye." Take care, everyone!"

"Don't leave it at that! Take care!"

Xia Ze jumped lightly and picked up the ship, Lin Luqing had been waiting at the bow for a long time.

And Xu Xiuzhu began to walk to the north step by step.

"Brother Xu! Take care!" He Xu shouted.

Xu Xiuzhu's steps were a little staggering, especially after hearing He Xu calling him, his body trembled slightly, and he waved his hand vigorously.

He Xu suddenly began to break free of Ayu, chasing the ship that had already sailed out of the dock, waving his hand and crying, "Xia Ze! You can rest assured! No matter how many years have passed since we reunited, I will definitely practice my boxing hard! Read and write well! Take care!"

Xia Ze was stunned, and turned his head suddenly, he was already in tears, it turned out that this little bit had already known.

Tianmu Dongtian, Xia Ze, He Xu, He Xi three pairs of eyes, Xia Ze can see all the time, and one does not know, as for He Xu, he can see through people's hearts.

"Take care!"

In a trance, the light boat has passed over the Ten Thousand Mountains.

The young Xia Ze stood at the bow of the boat with a sword, and the end of the trip was Daqi Dongjing.
