In Xinghai Fishing Village, time seems to stand still. The clouds overhead have moved westward, while the houses and trees on South Street have not changed for more than a decade. The afternoon sun shines on the streets, and the houses hidden in the green trees are transformed into beautiful palaces.

Dugu Xiaotian walked on the newly built main street in the village, full of emotion. I have been away from the village for more than three years, and time has passed like a white horse. In the past three years, I have experienced major events such as Shencheng's capture of treasures, galloping to aid Wudang, martial arts conferences, and the battle of Datong.

Five miles west of Xinghai Village, three Yizhuang villages were built, and about four or five thousand people lived, and the vicinity of Xinghai gradually became prosperous and lively.

Zhu Cuixian stayed near Xinghai Village for three days, and she used 5,000 taels of silver to purchase a piece of land about 30 acres north of the village from the local government.

Dugu Xiaotian was puzzled and immediately asked. Zhu Cuixian smiled slightly and replied, "This place has outstanding people and excellent feng shui, and it is a good place for cultivation. ”

Although Dugu Xiaotian felt that there was no feng shui in the barren mountains and wilderness in the north, he expected that the county lord was smart, and he just couldn't guess her thoughts, so he didn't ask more.

Zhu Cuixian stayed in the sea of stars for another two days before leaving. Li Xiaoyue personally sent each other ten miles, and the two laughed constantly, saying goodbye.

After Xiaotian returned to the sea of stars, he saw that the three tiled houses in the west of the village were still the same. He cleaned the courtyard and went to the grave of his parents to offer incense. I came back and tidied up the stove utensils, repaired the fence, and stayed.

The villagers were very happy to see Dugu Xiaotian come back. The villagers came to chat one after another, and it lasted for three days before they dispersed.

Dugu Xiaotian didn't care, and chatted with the villagers about the shortcomings of their parents, only saying that he had become a dart master of Shencheng Golden Sword Gate, and he had been darts for three years, and he didn't mention anything else.

Many of the supplies at home were aging and there was no food, so Dugu Xiaotian hired a car and horse from the village to purchase some furniture, books, and food from Yizhuang in the west and transport them home.

Dugu Xiaotian stayed at home day and night, reading some Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism classics, practicing martial arts in the courtyard, but also clean and comfortable.

Li Xiaoyue took five or six female disciples from Xuantianmen to ask for five acres of land in the village and build a house more than ten zhang south of Dugu Xiaotian's house.

Dugu Xiaotian occasionally heard the sound of "clanging" construction there, and secretly thought: "Xiaoyue is a disciple of the master of Xuantian Gate, and her life on Changsheng Island in the past six or seven years must be good, and she should not be used to the living environment in the village." ”

Li Xiaoyue came to Dugu Xiaotian's house every two or three days, and after the two chatted about some homely things, Dugu Xiaotian took the time to instruct Xiaoyue in some martial arts, Li Xiaoyue was elated, and carefully practiced hard according to Xiaotian's instructions.

In the blink of an eye, a month has passed, and the courtyard on Li Xiaoyue's side has taken shape, Dugu Xiaotian glanced twice, there were more than 30 houses vaguely, and he thought that Li Xiaoyue must want to live in the same environment as Changsheng Island, so he didn't ask more.

On the northern slope of the mountain, two or three hundred people also came at this time to build on the land purchased by Zhu Cuixian. Looking from the hillside, his yard was in full view, and Dugu Xiaotian couldn't help but smile bitterly. Fortunately, the hillside was still more than a mile away from his house, and it was quite far away, so he didn't care about it.

After another two months, the weather is getting cooler, and winter is approaching in the north. Song Shuling took more than ten Wudang disciples to Xinghai Village to visit Dugu Xiaotian.

Dugu Xiaotian's family only has three tiled houses, and they can't accommodate the people in Wudang to sleep, so they have to invite the people in Wudang to live in Li Xiaoyue's newly built house.

"Sister Shuling, you're here, Xiaoyue misses you very much!" Li Xiaoyue took Song Shuling's hand and chatted in the courtyard.

When Dugu Xiaotian went to Li Xiaoyue's newly built courtyard for the first time, he saw 356 houses and six courtyards, which were very magnificent. The five or six female disciples of Xuantianmen were running around, cooking and cooking, but it was also lively.

"Shuling, have there been any major events in the martial arts in the past three months?" Dugu Xiaotian and Song Shuling returned to the courtyard of their house and asked softly.

"It's not a big deal, it's just a mess of chores. The East Pole and the West are crazy, the North Immortals and the South are tyrants, but they have done several big things in the past few months, and their fame in the rivers and lakes has become even louder. Song Shuling sighed, her little face bitter.

"People in the martial arts are brave and ruthless, there is no first, there is no second, there is no competition, and injuries are inevitable." She said softly, "Accumulated from generation to generation, this grudge will never be resolved." ”

"Shuling, I just want you to live happily, if you are not happy with this martial arts alliance master, then don't do it." Dugu Xiaotian took Song Shuling's hand and said softly.

Song Shuling's cheeks were crimson, and she said coquettishly: "You help me persuade my father, let me pick a son and quit." He also wants me to take over as the head of Wudang in a few years. ”

"Xiaotian, I also want to live a relaxed and free life like you, ignore the grievances and grievances on the rivers and lakes, and live happily with you every day." In the end, Song Shuling was already like a mosquito.

The two were in Datong City that day, and they had already kissed and fell in love. At this time, Dugu Xiaotian no longer had any scruples and held Song Shuling in his arms. Then he said softly: "According to the Ming law, a man can be sixteen years old, and a woman can be married at the age of fourteen. If you get married, you can't be the leader of the martial arts alliance and the head of Wudang. ”

"You're so nice!" Song Shuling's eyes were full of joy, she couldn't bear it anymore, and kissed Dugu Xiaotian's lips forward.

Both of them are the age of blood and strength, and at this time they are lonely men and widows in the middle of the night, Dugu Xiaotian feels that the jade man in his arms is hot, and his heart is hot.

He hurriedly calmed down and reluctantly left Song Shuling's fragrant lips. Dugu Xiaotian took a deep breath, let go of Song Shuling, and took half a step back.

He took Song Shuling's little hand and said softly: "At this time, it is about to enter winter, it is not suitable for marriage, on the third day of March of the next year, when the spring flowers are blooming, I will personally go to Wudang Mountain to propose marriage." You also inform the head of Song, arrange the matter of the martial arts alliance leader in advance, and you will be relieved by then. ”

Song Shuling's little face was flushed, and she was more delicate than a flower under the light. She nodded, "I'll be waiting for you in Wudang Mountain!" ”

Immediately, she whispered, "I want to live here tonight!" Dugu Xiaotian hurriedly shook his head, "Shuling, we must not plan, we must focus on the reputation of the Wudang faction, if the relationship between the two is long, how can it be in the morning and twilight." I'll send you back to the Wudang disciples now. ”

Li Xiaoyue's courtyard was very close, and the two of them had arrived in a few moments. At this time, it was already the second watch, Dugu Xiaotian led Song Shuling into the hospital, and saw Zhou Yunbi and Li Xiaoyue standing in the courtyard, not sleeping.

"Uncle Zhou, why haven't you slept yet?" Song Shuling's face flushed, she looked at Zhou Yunbi, who seemed to be smiling, and asked in a low voice.

Zhou Yunbi didn't answer, and smiled slightly, "Dugu Shaoxia is really a gentleman, and in the face of such a beautiful woman as Shuling, it is a good match to be able to sit still and not mess up." ”

Li Xiaoyue's eyes flowed, and she looked at Dugu Xiaotian stupidly, but did not speak.

"It's late at night, and the juniors are leaving!" Dugu Xiaotian was embarrassed, and hurriedly turned around and went back to his courtyard.

In the early morning of the next day, Dugu smiled and came to see off the Wudang people. "Silly melon, do you still have the silver ticket?" Song Shuling asked.

"Keep it, it's still useless." Dugu Xiaotian hurriedly replied. Song Shuling rolled her eyes, pointed to a place in the east and said, "You buy this piece of land, and then build a large courtyard." ”

Dugu Xiaotian was stunned when he heard this, and then he understood. "Okay, I'll buy this piece of land tomorrow and build a big courtyard, so that it will be convenient to entertain the uncles and brothers of the Wudang faction in the future."

"Sister Yu, don't worry, I will supervise Brother Xiaotian to build a new house. I've just finished building a house, and I'm familiar with it. Li Xiaoyue smiled playfully and blinked.
