Unsheathed Sword Chapter 111: Parting
Xianyun Inn arrived soon, Xu Huaigu took Pingcui upstairs, and gently knocked on the door of the room, it was Bai Xiaoyu's door.
Ping Cui's eyes widened, and she said in surprise: "Isn't this the sister who gave me clothes, why are you here, do you also know Brother Xu?" β
Bai Xiaoyu bent down, touched Ping Cui's little brain, and said with a smile: "Yes, not only do I know him, but I am also a very good friend with him." β
Xu Huaigu poked his head and looked into the room, but saw that Yu Qin had woken up, sitting on the bed at this time, drinking a small bowl of white porridge.
She scooped up a small spoonful of white porridge, put it to her lips and gently blew it cold, and then put it in her mouth. The movements are elegant and calm, just like the quiet girl in Xu Huaigu's memory.
Bai Xiaoyu knew that Xu Huaigu had something to say to Yu Qin, so he said, "You guys wait for a while, I'll take Pingcui out for a walk." β
She took Pingcui's hand and walked out of the door and said, "Sister will take you out to eat delicious food again, okay?" β
Ping Cui said happily: "I want a rock sugar gourd!" β
Bai Xiaoyu agreed with a smile, and the footsteps of the two of them went farther and farther, leaving only Xu Huaigu and Yu Qin in the room.
Xu Huaigu walked up to Yu Qin, took the porridge bowl in her hand, and said, "I'll feed you this time." β
Yu Qin did not refuse, lightly opened her red lips, and Xu Huaigu sent a spoonful of porridge that was still emitting heat to her mouth.
Yu Qin asked him, "Do you know the woman in white just now?" β
"I know, her name is Bai Xiaoyu, I met her before I went to Astragalus Mountain, I met her again in Xingqing by chance this time, if it weren't for her help, I wouldn't have been able to get the antidote to save you."
Yu Qin said suspiciously: "Why did I faint as soon as I touched those flowers in the yard?" β
"That's the red flower, poisonous, you've been so faint these days that you're almost dying."
Yu Qin took another sip of porridge, looked at Xu Huaigu's haggard appearance, and said in disappointment: "I'm sorry, I'm dragging you down." β
Xu Huaigu said gently: "What's the matter? You saved me in the first place, and I didn't see me so polite to you, so you can recuperate with peace of mind. Besides, I promised to protect you in front of your father, and if I can't even do what I do now, I will explain to him what I will do. β
"I heard Bai Xiaoyu say before, are you going to continue northward next?"
Xu Huaigu nodded and said, "Yes, I still have to go all the way north to Fuyao Sect, and it is estimated that I will have to walk for several years." But don't worry, I have already settled you in Xingqing, and when the time comes, you will live in the palace of Princess Cangyang, I have a relationship with her, and she will treat you well. β
Yu Qin was depressed: "Can't you stay, it's too dangerous to go north, or we will stay in Xingqing, right?" β
Xu Huaigu shook his head and said, "I can't stay in one place for a long time, I can't stay." β
Yu Qin sighed.
She knew that Xu Huaigu had rivers and lakes in his heart, he longed for the distance, and it was impossible to keep him. But her only reliance is Xu Huaigu, if she really lives in Princess Cangyang's mansion as he said, then no matter how good her life is, it is just a cage for her, there is no fun, she only wants to stay with Xu Huaigu.
Yu Qin begged, "Then can you take me north with you?" I'll take care of myself, I won't cause you trouble, you just have to take me. β
Xu Huaigu said resolutely: "No, the road to the north is too dangerous, and I may not even be able to save my own life, let alone add you?" If you have three longs and two shorts, I won't forgive myself. β
Yu Qin burst into tears: "But do you know? If you leave me here alone, it's even more tormenting. I want to be with you, I don't want to lose you again like I lost my father. So no matter how much danger there is, whether it's life or death, no matter what, we're all facing it together, isn't it? β
Xu Huaigu was moved by what she said, but reason told him that he must not do this.
In the illusion, he saw Yu Qin commit suicide for himself, and he couldn't forget the heart-rending pain at that time. He definitely didn't want to see Yu Qin have an accident, but his compassion wanted Yu Qin to go with him.
Jianghu Road is so treacherous, but if Yu Qin follows her, it will become a lot warmer.
Xu Huaigu was in a dilemma, struggling for a long time, and then said: "Don't think about it so much first, take care of your body first, we still have time to think about these things in the future." β
Yu Qin saw that Xu Huaigu was a little shaken, so she didn't continue to speak, and swallowed the porridge he sent one bite at a time.
......
At night, the house in the Xianyun Inn was brightly lit, and laughter continued to be heard.
Yu Qin's awakening was naturally a great joy, Huang Shan and Bai Xiaoyu both rushed to congratulate Xu Huaigu and Yu Qin, as for Pingcui, the little guy was hiding in the corner with a big bag of rock sugar gourds, eating a mouth full of sugar, like a little flower cat.
After the four of them first introduced each other, they started chatting casually.
Huang Shan kept talking about what he had seen and heard in the mountains and fields before, Xu Huaigu teased him from time to time, Yu Qin was also happy to hear it, time passed quickly, and before he knew it, it was already late at night.
Huang Shanzheng told the story to the tense plot: "I saw that ghost in a black ragged shirt slaughtering in the town. As soon as it went into a room, it was like no one, no one could stop it, and another family was slaughtered. It was now standing in front of a woman dressed in white, ready to kill her. Anyway, the ghost is also a ruthless ghost, the woman has peach cheeks and apricot eyes, and she has a good figure, she is a very watery woman, and she is trembling in the corner at this time, and the ghost doesn't even plan to keep her hand. Fortunately, at this moment, I slammed open the door, rushed in, and took out the spirit banner that Master had passed on to me to refine it. The ghost was about to run in a panic, but unfortunately where could he escape? It's not like you have to give it to me. As soon as the woman saw that I had saved him, she wanted to repay her, but I naturally disdained it. The woman only saw that I was handsome, and she would say that she would repay me. If I hadn't been so handsome, she would probably have said that she would be a cow and a horse for me in the next life. So I said, 'Girl, I am a chivalrous man who saves people, and I am not coveting your beauty, so why .......'"
"Stop, stop", Bai Xiaoyu, who had not spoken, finally opened his mouth impatiently, "Can you make up this story a little more fake?" I got goosebumps all over my body when I heard it. β
Huang Shan was unconvinced: "How can it be said to be fake?" I'm not done with this story yet, and I'm going to finish it slowly. I said, "I said; 'Girl, I'm not coveting your beauty, so why bother .......'"
Bai Xiaoyu glared at him and turned his head to the side angrily. Xu Huaigu looked up to the sky and yawned, looking at Ping Cui and Yu Qin boredly.
Huang Shan's story has been told for nearly two hours, and the content is so boring and vulgar, Xu Huaigu feels that he can tell such a story because he is really thick-skinned, and Xu Huaigu will definitely not be able to do it.
But Pingcui listened to it with great interest, while holding a rock sugar gourd, while listening to Huang Shan's story, saliva was about to flow onto his clothes. Yu Qin quietly listened to Huang Shan's story, neither interested nor disgusted.
Xu Huaigu played with the hilt of the sword with his fingers and looked at a small candle flame on the table.
The candle flame kept jumping, and the flames emitted several halos of light, shining on Yu Qin's face, like the scene when the two met.
"It is said that a red light suddenly appeared in the sky for no reason, and suddenly the sea water rushed to the surroundings like crazy, and the bottomless sea was actually split in half by this sword qi......
Huang Shan was still telling clichΓ©d stories, but out of the corner of Xu Huaigu's eyes, he suddenly found that Bai Xiaoyu's gaze suddenly froze, and then became extremely serious, and the atmosphere in the room was suddenly solemn.
Huang Shan also noticed that something was wrong, and quickly stopped talking, looking at Bai Xiaoyu suspiciously.
Bai Xiaoyu whispered, "My master is here." β
Xu Huaigu turned his eyes to see that a figure dressed in black really appeared in the middle of the room.
The candle flame flickered on and off.
The woman in black spoke, her tone very unhappy: "You should have had enough fun this time when you go to Lethe, right?" I almost poked out the basket, hurry up and return to Middle-earth for me, or you will lock you up in the mountains in the future, and never think of it again! β
Bai Xiaoyu knew that Master's tone was usually not surprised, but he was really angry when he spoke so excitedly this time, and there was no room for maneuver.
She was very frustrated and said aggrievedly, "Yes, Master." β
The aura and cultivation of the woman in black were too powerful, and for a while, everyone in the entire room was silent and did not dare to speak.
The woman in black walked towards Huang Shan first.
Huang Shan looked up at the woman's void eyes, and instantly lost consciousness and fell into those eyes, cultivating to be powerless.
The woman in black lifted Huang Shan up like a dead thing, and said coldly: "Fortunately, you made the right choice, otherwise you wouldn't have imagined how miserable your death would be." β
This is about the choice Huang Shan made on the stone bridge and saved Bai Xiaoyu.
She turned to look at Xu Huaigu again, and Xu Huaigu hurriedly lowered her head, not daring to look at her.
The woman in black looked at Xu Huaigu for a while, and said in surprise: "It's a little interesting, I didn't expect to meet someone casually, and he is still a person who has an intersection with Molong." β
She then looked at everyone in the room, but didn't say anything more.
The woman in black is Bai Xiaoyu's master, known as Black Pupil in the cultivation world, and her eyes are born with nothingness, and it is rumored that her left eye can see the past and her right eye can see the future.
After the black pupil did all this, she disappeared in an instant, as mysterious as she appeared, but Bai Xiaoyu was also gone.
Huang Shan was relieved and knelt on the ground gasping for breath.
The moment he stared into the black pupil's eyes just now, he felt like he was about to suffocate. He saw her heart lake in the eyes of the black pupils, an endless void, vast enough to hold the stars.
Starting from the monks of the Three Realms, a heart lake will be born, and at that time, the level of cultivation can also be glimpsed through the size of the heart lake. Huang Shan's heart lake is only the size of a pond, and it is not a real lake. But the heart lake of the woman in black is a boundless void.
What a profound cultivation is this?
Eight realms?
No, no, absolutely not only, there are at least nine realms, and even ten realms are not impossible. Those realms were all realms that Huang Shan had never touched, and he couldn't say why.
Although he had guessed that Bai Xiaoyu's master realm was very high, he never imagined that it would be so high.
Xu Huaigu was a little lost, Bai Xiaoyu just left, and he didn't even have time to say goodbye.
But in fact, after thinking about it and not saying anything else, then the next meeting should not be far away, right?
Thinking like this, Xu Huaigu opened the window and looked out at the Milky Way moonlight.
Under the night, a silver moonlight hung from the nine heavens, and as soon as it arrived in the world, it turned into a parting sorrow.
