On the beach not far from the port of Lanzhou.

Jiang Chuyue was staring intently at the small hole in the ground, hoping that something would come out of it and be caught by herself.

Unfortunately, my eyes were sour, and it was still empty.

In the blink of an eye.

Another stick of incense has passed.

There was still no movement there.

"Who said that, there must be something in this kind of hole, obviously not ......"

Jiang Chuyue pursed her lips, muttered, and turned around to leave.

Right now.

A small crab the size of a finger suddenly sprang out of the small hole, and fled like crazy in the direction of the sea.

"Sure enough, there's something!"

Jiang Chuyue was slightly stunned, and then the whole person became excited, and she stood up and was about to pounce on it to catch it.

But.

In the blink of an eye, the little crab burrowed into the sea and disappeared.

The beach in front of me was empty again, and there was no sign of any living creatures.

The corners of Jiang Chuyue's mouth twitched, and an urge to scold rose in her heart.

Side.

When Qiu'er saw this scene, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle, and said, "Miss Chuyue, although they are small, they are still very fast, let's pick up the shells that can't run, it's also very interesting." ”

Jiang Chuyue shook her head, her delicate face showed a look of determination, and she said word by word: "I have to catch a crab today!" ”

As he spoke, he bent over, lowered his head, and searched the beach again.

A moment later.

She finally found a small hole of similar size not far away.

This time.

Instead of sitting still, she pulled the small hole with both hands, hoping to dig the crab out directly.

Less than a stick of incense.

What was once a small hole has been turned into a small bunker.

The excavated sand was also stacked into a small mound.

She still hadn't seen any of the crabs.

Even so, she still didn't give up, still crossed her hips, and continued to dig holes, looking as if she was doing something extremely important.

Qiu'er stood aside, watching her dig a pit, entangled for a long time, and finally persuaded her: "Miss Chuyue......"

Just spoke.

Suddenly there was an "oops" sound in my ears.

When I looked down, I saw that the sand in front of me had suddenly collapsed.

The girl didn't have time to react at all, and fell directly into the sand pit, with her head down, her buttocks up, a pair of straight and slender legs swaying back and forth, and shouted in a muffled voice: "Help...... Save me...... Phew......"

A moment later.

Jiang Chuyue was dragged out of the sand pit by Qiu'er.

The green silk was messy, sticking to the white and smooth forehead.

The cheeks and the tip of the nose were red, and there was a lot of wet sand, and the whole person looked embarrassed and pitiful.

Qiu'er stood aside, looking at her, wanting to laugh but feeling inappropriate, her face flushed, and her shoulders shrugged slightly.

I don't know, I thought she had encountered something sad, and she held back her tears.

"Phew!"

Jiang Chuyue spit out the sand in her mouth, turned her head to look at Qiu'er, pouted, and said, "If you want to laugh, laugh, I think it's funny......"

The voice fell.

Qiu'er couldn't hold back any longer, covered her mouth, bent over, and giggled.

Not far away.

Chang An was not affected by them in the slightest, and stood in place as always, looking at the sea.

The whole person is like a beautiful sculpture, standing on the seashore, motionless.

A gust of wind blew the corners of her skirt, and her long black and dense hair fluttered with it, with a cold and noble temperament, as well as a thin and elegant figure, like a fairy in the sky.

Just when she was beautiful alone.

Jiang Chuyue, who had finished spitting out the sand, came over, raised her eyebrows, and said, "Senior sister, how long have you been standing, are you tired?" ”

Chang An still looked into the distance and didn't say a word.

Jiang Chuyue said: "Senior sister, the master didn't let you stand again, what are you doing standing there all the time, let's have fun together." ”

Chang An glanced at her and said lukewarmly: "You are not young anymore, you should be mature and steady." ”

Jiang Chuyue pursed her lips, looking unimpressed.

It's like you're so mature and steady.

It's obviously pretended.

It's like this every day, aren't you tired......

Thinking so, she grabbed a handful of sand from the ground and threw it at her senior sister.

I only heard a snap.

The sand smashed on Chang An's long skirt, and it instantly scattered in all directions, leaving a lot of traces.

“……”

Chang An slowly turned his head, looked at Jiang Chuyue expressionlessly, and said nothing.

When Jiang Chuyue saw this scene, she suddenly felt a little cowardly.

She shrunk her neck and whispered, "People think it's hard to come out to play once, it's time to relax, it's not good for senior sister to be tense like this." ”

Hearing this, Chang An's eyes softened a little and he was about to speak.

In the next second, another handful of sand smashed straight at her.

Before she could react, the gravel had already smashed into her chest, and even the placket of her shirt parted a little.

“……”

Chang An took a deep breath and tried to calm his emotions.

secretly warned himself that he wanted to be mature and steady, and there was no need to be angry with her.

However......

In the next second, another handful of sand smashed over.

"People are joking with senior sisters, mature and stable senior sisters will definitely not mind, right?"

Jiang Chuyue looked at her senior sister, her eyes were clear and innocent.

“……”

Chang An still looked at her expressionlessly, without saying a word.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Chuyue suddenly panicked.

She squeezed out a smile and said, "Senior sister likes to stand, just stand, people go and pick up shells with Qiu'er......"

As he spoke, he stepped back.

Right now.

Chang An, who had been standing in place, suddenly moved.

Suddenly it disappeared in place.

Seeing this, Jiang Chuyue no longer hesitated, and ran away.

It's a pity...... It's still a little slower.

After a stick of incense.

She returned to the familiar sand pit, still head down, hips up, straight calves dangling, begging for mercy in a muffled voice: "Master...... Senior sister, people are wrong...... Bah! ”

On a dirt slope in the distance.

Mu Rou sat on the soft fox fur, watching Chang An, Jiang Chuyue, and Qiu'er playing with each other on the beach, the corners of her mouth hooked into a smile, and her eyebrows couldn't help but show a touch of yearning.

"If Miss Mu finds it interesting, you can play with them."

A familiar voice rang in my ears.

Mu Rou was slightly stunned, turned her head to look, and saw Ren Pingsheng sitting beside her.

"I went to the beach just now, and the sea breeze is not so strong, Miss Mu put on a fox fur and go to the beach for a spin, it will be fine."

Ren Pingsheng looked at the figures of Chang An and said with a smile.

Mu Rou didn't agree, but just asked, "Can Ren Gongzi get the news he wants?" ”

Ren Pingsheng said: "It's all trivial information, which may or may not be useful." ”

Mu Rou said "um" and said no more.

Follow.

The two fell silent.

Ren Pingsheng sat on the ground, looking at the three Chang An who were still playing, and felt a little regretful in his heart.

I couldn't see the appearance of Chang'an's swimsuit.

If it's spring and summer......

Chang An's character, it is estimated that even in spring and summer, he will not change into swimsuits.

Unless there was no one else on the entire beach but herself.

Side.

Mu Rou's watery eyes looked at Ren Pingsheng, and she inexplicably felt a lot more peaceful.

The fresh sea breeze blew in my face, and an indescribable strange feeling rose in my heart.

She knew it in her heart.

The reason why Ren Gongzi took the time to come to this beach was partly because he wanted to investigate the case, and a large part of the reason was because he once said that he wanted to see the sea.

In other words, he did it to fulfill his heart's desire.

This moment.

Her mind suddenly came up with the words that Qiu'er had said to herself when she was in Jingshi.

Perhaps, Qiu'er is right, she really shouldn't continue to cowardly escape......

That's it.

She plucked up her courage, looked at Ren Pingsheng, and said softly: "Ren Gongzi, Yin and Yang Liangyi Heart Sutra ......"

The voice did not fall.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the distance.

The two of them turned their heads at the same time, and saw more than a dozen people gathered on the edge of the waves on another beach, as if shouting something, looking anxious.

If you look closely, you will see a figure faintly visible in the waves, which looks like a half-grown child.

"Overboard?"

Ren Pingsheng was slightly stunned, but quickly reacted, stood up, and walked quickly to the beach.

Meanwhile.

Two lean men threw themselves into the waves, trying to save the child from the waves.

It's just that.

No sooner had they plunged into the waves than they had disappeared in the blink of an eye.

It took a while for his head to emerge from the water, and he was still some distance away from the child.

It stands to reason that people who are proficient in water can easily swim there.

But for some reason, the two desperately tried to swim to the child, but they never got a step closer and still stopped in place.

When the people on the shore saw this scene, they all showed anxious expressions.

"Rip currents?"

Ren Pingsheng looked at everything that happened not far away, and his brows furrowed slightly.

The so-called offshore current is a narrow and strong current that flows from the coast to the sea, and although it does not last long, it is very fast.

Once a person is caught in it, it is very difficult to escape.

It's just those two men who are proficient in water, and when they enter the offshore current, they are just barely protecting themselves, that's all, if they want to rescue the child, it is difficult to climb to the sky.

The kid in front of him had given up struggling.

Ren Pingsheng no longer had the slightest hesitation, his mind moved, and he used the Yuan Shen to establish contact with the Hongming Knife.

Just a moment.

The time that broke through the sky sounded in my ears.

The Hongming knife turned into a streamer of light and rushed straight to the beach.

It's not the first time it's done to save people, and it's a familiar thing, and it soon came to the sky above the child who fell into the water.

Just as it was slowly descending, a mutation sprung up.

A wave of spray approached the child who fell into the water at a great speed.

The next second.

Everyone, including Ren Pingsheng, hasn't reacted yet.

The wave lifted the child out of the water.

Immediately after, he came to two other men who wanted to save people but could not protect themselves, lifted them up, and sent them to the shore.

It all happened very suddenly.

There is also no time for half-baked incense from beginning to end.

Everyone looked at this scene in amazement, and they were all a little stunned.

The first to react was a middle-aged woman.

She threw herself at the child lying on the seashore and took him in her arms, her face full of anxiety.

A moment later.

Seeing that his son was safe and sound, his heart finally fell, and he knelt down and kowtowed to the waves, and kept shouting: "Bless the Sea Dragon King, bless the Sea Dragon King!" ”

Follow.

The rest of the crowd also knelt down, kowtowing while shouting words like the Sea Dragon King's blessing.

Ren Pingsheng stood on the slope, looking at the sea, his eyes were faint.

He stood on a high place and could see clearly.

The waves that were kowtowed and bowed down by everyone, where is the sea dragon king, it is clearly a huge big fish.

The big fish obviously had spirituality, and it emerged from the sea, with a pair of smart eyes, looking at Ren Pingsheng's gaze.

The next second, he shrank back and left silently.

"No wonder the fishermen of Lanzhou Port have such reverence for the Sea Dragon King, it turns out that there are really life-saving creatures in the sea, but I don't know if the Sea Dragon King that those fishermen are talking about is this fish ......"

Think so.

Ren Pingsheng turned around and returned to Mu Rou's side and asked, "What did Miss Mu want to say?" ”

Mu Rouqiao's face was slightly red, she opened her mouth, but she still couldn't make up her mind, swallowed back her original words, and changed her words: "What is the state of Ren Gongzi's Yin and Yang Liangyi Heart Sutra cultivation?" ”

Ren Pingsheng said: "The second chapter is almost complete. ”

Actually, it's been consummated.

There's no point in just saying it.

After all, the third chapter of the "Yin and Yang Liangyi Heart Sutra" could not be obtained without the approval of the Heavenly Master.

Mu Rou also seemed to understand this, looked at Ren Pingsheng, and asked, "When the master handed over the Yin and Yang Liangyi Heart Sutra to Ren Gongzi, what conditions did he put forward. ”

Ren Pingsheng hesitated for a moment, and told the truth: "If Miss Mu finds a Taoist companion and practices the Yin and Yang Liangyi Heart Sutra, the Heavenly Master will teach me the exercises completely." ”

Mu Rou asked, "What if I don't find a suitable Taoist companion and am still willing to practice the exercises?" ”

“？”

When Ren Pingsheng heard this, his expression when he looked at Mu Rou became a little strange.

Mu Rou also realized that what she said was a little strange, her pretty face was slightly red, and she said, "I just said it casually, Ren Gongzi should not misunderstand." ”

Ren Pingsheng wanted to ask: "What is the misunderstanding?" ”

After thinking about it, it was just that, "um", and fell silent.

For a while, the atmosphere was a little awkward.

Fortunately.

Jiang Chuyue on the beach was already a little tired from playing, and they were walking back, ending the embarrassing atmosphere ahead of schedule.

At this moment, it is dusk.

The setting sun slowly burrowed into the thin clouds, staining the western sky red.

The golden sunset is reflected on the clear sea, shining with ten thousand points of golden light.

The sunset, the sunset, the sea, the sails and several beauties with their own styles form a beautiful picture, which makes people feel extremely amazing.

Back in the city of Lanzhou, the sun has completely set.

Passing through the bustling streets, the carriage stopped at the entrance of the inn.

The group returned to the lobby.

The shopkeeper had already prepared the meal and stood aside, waiting respectfully.

After eating.

Ren Pingsheng returned to his house, planning to rest for the night and have a good drink of tea with his acquaintance in Nalan Prefecture tomorrow.

Lying on the bed, after a while, there was a sudden sound of a soft call at the door.

"Ren Gongzi ......"

The voice was light and soft, and it sounded very familiar, it was the little Heavenly Master Mu Rou.
