Chapter 45: Nothing Snow Today
Hu Lu held his sword and stood on the edge of the second pond looking up at the sky quietly.
Before he had finished practicing his sword move, he felt something fall on his sword.
Maybe it's water, maybe it's snow.
So Hulu stopped and looked at the sky.
In the distant and gloomy sky, a lot of fine snow was falling towards the world.
Hu Lu looked at it for a long time, and then suddenly returned the sword to the sheath and walked towards the outside of the second pond.
I have been looking for a long time, and I saw Chen Huaifeng who was holding a cup of hot tea there and watching other brothers play cards.
"Senior brother, it's snowing."
Hu Lu stood on the edge of the pool and shouted towards the pavilion.
Chen Huaifeng heard the voice, stood on the edge of the pavilion and stretched out his head to look outside, then walked out of the pavilion, walked to the Hu Lu standing on the path by the pool, and asked, "What's wrong with the snow?" β
Hu Lu thought for a while and said, "It's snowing, which means that winter is really coming, and it also means that winter is about to leave." β
Chen Huaifeng seemed to understand something, and looked at the fifteen-year-old boy in front of him.
Hu Lu said very seriously: "So Senior Brother Xiaoyu is still back?" β
Chen Huaifeng walked forward in the sparse snow with the cup in his arms, and Hu Lu followed behind with his sword, looking at Chen Huaifeng expectantly.
Chen Huaifeng walked for a long time before he said softly: "I don't know, maybe he will come back tomorrow." β
Chen Huaifeng did not say the second half of the sentence.
But Hu Lu knew what it meant, so he just whispered an ooh, and then lowered his head and walked slowly on the sloping bridge of the fine snow garden with his sword in his hand.
Chen Huaifeng smiled and said, "Actually, if he doesn't come back, you can also go to him." β
Hu Lu looked up at Chen Huaifeng, who was walking in front, and said, "Then why didn't Senior Brother go to him?" β
Chen Huaifeng said softly: "Because people like us are old, we always have other meanings in the world, if I suddenly go to you Senior Brother Xiaoyu, the people of the world will think wildly, thinking that the Human Sword Sect may want to do something." But you are different, you are a teenager, whoever the teenager wants to see, he can naturally meet whomever he wants, and when the world sees it, he will only say - these two brothers have a really good relationship. β
Hu Lu walked silently on the road, and then said in a low voice: "What Senior Brother said is indeed right, but I don't mean that I have to see Senior Brother Xiaoyu, I just hope that he can come back, and then stay in the Sword Sect, don't ......"
Don't walk in the snowstorm of the world with such pain in your arms.
Of course, Chen Huaifeng knew what Hulu meant.
But this thirty-two-year-old Dao Sword Cultivator just calmly held the wolfberry teacup in his hand, took a few sips, dispelled some of the chill, and then said slowly: "The world will always divert away, Hu Lu, even if it is you Senior Brother Xiaoyu, even if it is you and me, living in the world, it is to go its own way, each to do its own thing." β
Hu Lu was silent for a while, and said, "So I'm greedy too much?" β
Chen Huaifeng said softly: "You are still a teenager, teenagers don't have so many troubles, it's easy not to understand why the world will eventually be separated - the same may not go together, the same life may not die together, life and death are the same, not to mention others?" β
Hu Lu thought of the Tonggui Monument, and then heard Chen Huaifeng continue.
"It is precisely because of pain that hope is meaningful, and it is precisely because of parting that it is meaningful to get together. Just like you are now, it is not a comfortable and beautiful thing to wait for warm wine and cut the window. β
Hu Lu quietly followed Chen Huaifeng forward, and then said, "Then what should I do?" β
Chen Huaifeng said with a smile: "You can do whatever you want." β
Hulu sighed softly.
The two of them walked all the way to the edge of a pool.
Cong Xin was sitting on the swing under the tree outside a pool, but he was already asleep.
Every year when it snows, the senior brothers in the Sword Sect have to come here to wake up Xiao Congxin, who is sitting on the swing and sleeping.
Hu Lu quietly looked at Cong Xin, who was leaning his head on the swing vine and sleeping quietly, and the light snow slowly fell on the thin curved brow.
Chen Huaifeng walked over and gently woke up Xiao Congxin.
"It's snowing, Cong Xin."
Xiao Cong sat there in a daze, stretched out his hand, Chen Huaifeng picked her up, and walked towards the wooden house on the tree.
"Is Cong Zhong laughing back?"
Cong Xin said in a daze.
Chen Huaifeng said softly: "It's almost there." β
Cong Xin didn't speak again, and fell asleep on Chen Huaifeng's shoulder, like a small peach blossom that accidentally fell on his shoulder.
Hu Lu watched in silence.
Cong Zhongxiao left the Human Sword Sect and went to the Sword Grinding Cliff in the winter many years ago.
And never came back.
Cong Xin's age was actually older than any of the Sword Sect's senior brothers.
Chen Huaifeng carried Cong Xin back to the wooden house, and then walked down the wooden house path again.
Hulu was still standing there, holding his sword and looking at the snow.
Chen Huaifeng looked at Hu Lu and chuckled and asked, "Are you going to find him?" β
Hu Lu thought for a moment and said, "Let's wait until this snow is over." β
The two Sword Sect Master brothers stepped on the thin snow on the ground and slowly left.
......
It was snowing in Lingnan, and Le Chaotian, who was roasting by the fireplace in the small building, ran downstairs as soon as possible, and Nandao, who was cultivating sword intent on the corridor, was taken aback, opened his eyes and looked at the sparse snow all over the mountain, and looked at Le Chaotian downstairs, and asked very puzzled: "What are you going to do?" β
"Look at the cabbage." Le Chaotian said without looking back.
As the main dish of cabbage vermicelli hot pot that Le Chaotian misses, the little cabbage is very precious in Le Chaotian's heart.
On weekdays, I have to go to see if I have nothing to do, for fear that the temperature will be too low and they will all freeze to death.
Nandao sat upstairs for a while, thought about it, and walked down the canyon, and when he came to Wu Dalong's little cabbage field with an umbrella, Le Chaotian was holding vines in the snow to wrap the little cabbage leaves tightly and tie them up.
Nandao looked at it a little and said, "Does this work?" β
Le Chaotian said while tying the leaves of the little cabbage: "This is what Senior Brother Wu said, he said that if it snows and he doesn't want to dig them out, he will tie up their leaves, which can have a bit of anti-freezing effect." β
Nan Dao was silent for a while, and said, "It's better to directly use the sword intent to isolate this piece of wind and snow." β
Le Chaotian laughed softly: "What you eat like that is not the little cabbage in the world." β
Nan Dao was silent, and walked over with an umbrella, while picking up the rattan ropes that Le Chaotian didn't know when he was ready, and helping him hold the umbrella. Because it is impossible for Nandao to let go of the umbrella in his hand, he naturally can't help Le Chaotian.
Not long after, Wu Dalong also walked up and tied up those little cabbages with Le Chaotian.
I have been busy for a long time, and before the fine snow turns into heavy snow, I bundled all the little cabbages, and looked like a green and white radish from a distance.
The three of them stood at the head of the cabbage field, Nandao looked at Le Chaotian, who was sweating on the side, and said, "It's snowing now, don't you eat hot pot?" β
Le Chaotian laughed softly and said, "Of course not, we have to wait." β
"When?"
Le Chaotian thought for a while and said: "When we go out, when the snow has reached the calves, we will burn the stove again, and then step on the snow with a sigh, come here to pick a few little cabbage, scrub it directly with the snow, and then take it to the hot pot." β
Nandao thought for a long time and asked, puzzled, "Will this be more delicious?" β
Le Chaotian said seriously: "This atmosphere will be better." β
β......β
Wu Dalong said on the side: "Then today, while the snow is not yet heavy, I will go down the mountain first to buy some vermicelli pork or something, otherwise it will be difficult to get out of the mountain by then." β
Le Chaotian nodded and said, "Okay, thank you, senior brother." β
Wu Dalong turned around and left the vegetable field with a smile, and not long after, the two of them saw Wu Dalong wearing a thick winter coat and holding a stick, coming out of the Sword Sect and walking towards the bottom of the mountain.
Le Chaotian said softly: "Senior brother is really a person who lives in the world. β
Nandao thought about Lu Xiaoqi, Wu Dalong went to Nanyi City to find himself, and finally because he played a few cards, he was forced to work in the city to redeem the sword, and he also said with a smile: "Yes." β
Lingnan is indeed the closest place to the world.
The two of them looked at the vegetable patch for a while, and then stepped on the growing snow and walked towards the canyon.
Le Chaotian is indeed right.
When it snows heavily, it is indeed a wonderful thing to go into a small building and bake the fire and listen to the sound of snow falling outside.
Nandao didn't practice swords anymore today, so he sat on the side of the road and Le Chaotian, looking at the flying snow outside.
The world was soon mottled, and the distant peaks gradually changed from yellow-green to white-blackβbecause the snow was so white that all other colors looked black.
It's just an afternoon's affair for the withered mountains and white heads.
When Lu Xiaosan came back from the cliff in a hurry, the world was already snow-white.
Because the little boy hadn't seen much snow, he made a sound in amazement, and then ran all the way through the canyon with his sword on his back to the bottom of the Little Red Building, and said in amazement: "It's snowing, uncle!" β
It's a pity that his two uncles already knew that it was snowing, and they had even been watching the snow on the fire for an afternoon.
Therefore, Lu Xiaosan was not able to call the two Nandao out, but woke up the green pepper in the wooden house next to him from his cultivation state.
Compared with Lu Xiaosan, a little boy dressed in thin red clothes, it is naturally quite inconsistent.
Perhaps aesthetically pleasing.
But Lu Xiaosan didn't appreciate it, just tilted his head and looked at the woman in red and said, "Aren't you cold with such a big snow?" β
Qingjiao stood on the corridor of the wooden house, looked at the vast world, and said calmly: "It's not cold. β
Lu Xiaosan sighed, didn't care about her, and ran towards the small building with the sword on his back.
Nandao and Le Chaotian look very cold.
In the big furnace that Wu Dalong specially built, the coals were exuding a warm glow.
Lu Xiaosan, who originally wanted to play in the snow outside, suddenly rolled in front of the stove.
"Comfortable, comfortable, I'm not going back tonight, I'm going to sleep here, the stove in the Sword Sect is too small to bake my back."
Le Chaotian smiled slightly and said, "You can also ask your master to make a big furnace like this." β
Lu Xiaosan sat up, sighed and said, "Master said that this is too wasteful, a small stove is fine, or Uncle Shi, you can give me this stove." β
Le Chaotian sat in front of the stove and hugged his knees, shook his head very resolutely, and said, "No, I can't sleep well without the stove." β
"Huh, stingy!"
Lu Xiaosan was very dissatisfied, stood up again, lying on the guardrail outside and tilting his head to look at the snow outside.
Not long after, a small figure climbed up at the bottom of the cliff with a sword.
"Senior brother!"
It was Lu Xiaoer, who went all the way and beckoned to Lu Xiaosan.
"What's wrong, senior brother?" Lu Xiaosan asked very loudly.
"Master told you to go back to dinner!"
Lu Xiaosan smiled and said, "Tell Master, don't call me, I'm afraid that Uncle Shi will misunderstand." β
Lu Xiaoer was confused, so he ran up to the small building with a sword on his back.
Hiss.
Lu Xiaoer probably knew why, so he didn't mention the matter of eating, and sat in the corridor with Lu Xiaosan.
Although there was a lot of snow outside, there wasn't much wind, not to mention that there was a big stove behind him, steaming hot, and it wouldn't be cold even if you sat outside.
So not long after, the voice of senior sister Lu Xiaoyi came from under the cliff again.
"Second junior brother, third junior brother, Master told you to go back to dinner!"
"Tell Master~ Don't contact us, we're afraid that Uncle will misunderstand!"
Nandao sat in the middle of the building, looking at the two little teenagers outside, speechless.
Le Chaotian couldn't stop smiling there.
So Lu Xiaoyi also stayed.
In the end, all five little ones shrank in the little red building and lay in a circle in front of the stove.
Lu Xiaoxiao waited in the courtyard of the Little White Sword Sect for a long time, but he didn't see anyone come back, thinking that they wouldn't be killed by the wild wolves in the mountains.
So he hurriedly went back to get his sword, and stepped on the snow all the way to the Tianya Sword Sect, Wu Dalong still didn't come back, Lu Xiaoxiao followed those footprints, and walked towards the top of the mountain road, the mountain road was steep, plus the snow was very slippery, and he was so anxious that he fell.
When I walked up, I saw that the gorge was silent, and only Qingjiao was sitting alone in the corridor of the cabin, quietly watching the snow.
"Did you see the little one?"
Lu Xiaoxiao asked while sweeping the snow on his head.
Qingjiao looked strange, she naturally heard all the previous conversations, and even the little four and five who came at the end looked at her with a flattering look and said don't tell them that they went to roast the fire inside.
So Qingjiao was silent for a while, and wanted to say that he didn't see it, but when he saw the traces of the fall on Lu Xiaoxiao's hands, he sighed softly and said, "Roast the fire in there." β
Lu Xiaoxiao turned his head to look at Xiaolou, and sure enough, he found that the door on the second floor was open a little, and a little head stretched out to look at it, and quickly retracted it.
While breathing a sigh of relief, he was also annoyed, so he broke a branch from the side and walked towards Xiaolou with great momentum.
Qingjiao looked at it with a strange look in the back, thinking that you won't go and come out, right?
I don't know if it's comfortable inside, anyway, after Lu Xiaoxiao went in, he really didn't come out again.
Qingjiao sat outside the cabin for a while, hesitated a little, and walked towards the small building with his sword in his hand.
As soon as I went upstairs, I saw a little boy lying on the ground looking up - it didn't seem that he had been beaten.
Qingjiao was silent for a while, coughed, and said, "It seems that they are indeed here, which is good." β
Then he sat down on the sidelines.
Lu Xiaosan asked curiously, "Aren't you afraid..."
It's just that before he finished speaking, he was covered by Lu Xiaoxiao's mouth.
"you off."
"Okay!"
Lu Xiaosan began to roll around the stove again.
In any case, at least other people are coming, and it will always be embarrassing to say such things.
Green Pepper sat there quietly, and there was some silence in the room.
After a while, the woman in red stood up again and said, "It's really warm, I'll go back first." β
Le Chaotian smiled softly and said, "If it's warm, sit down for a while." β
Qingjiao walked downstairs with his sword in his arms and said calmly, "I'm not cold. β
Lu Xiaoxiao looked at Lu Xiaosan, who rolled to his side, and gave him a butt with his hand.
"Call you a mouthful!"
Lu Xiaosan covered his ass aggrievedly and rolled to the side again.
Several people had been roasting the fire for a long time, but Lu Xiaoxiao finally remembered that Wu Dalong was coming, looked at Nandao and asked, "Where is your Senior Brother Wu?" β
"He went down the hill to buy ingredients."
Lu Xiaoxiao then remembered the hot pot of Le Chaotian.
Then I remembered that before, after she left the canyon, they actually grilled the fish and ate it.
As soon as Le Chaotian saw Lu Xiaoxiao's expression, he quietly moved to the side.
Fortunately, Lu Xiaoxiao just glanced at him meaningfully, but he didn't threaten him or anything like that.
It's probably because the door has been closed for a long time - Fang Cai Wuxiao was afraid that Lu Xiaoxiao would find out and close it, so he didn't open it again. The small building was a little stuffy.
So Nandao opened the door with an umbrella, walked out, and sat down in the corridor.
Lu Xiaoxiao glanced at the sleepy five little ones and Le Chaotian, and also walked out, sitting outside the door with Nandao, watching the snow.
The sound of sleeping snoring gradually came from behind - when it snows, it is most likely to get sleepy.
Lu Xiaoxiao turned his head to look at Nandao, who had calmly looked at the heavy snow that had covered the entire Lingnan, and said softly: "It seems that you don't hate snow very much. β
Nandao looked at Lu Xiaoxiao and said, "Why do I hate snow?" β
Lu Xiaoxiao thought for a while and said, "Nanyi City ......"
Nandao said calmly: "A snowstorm is only in that snowstorm. β
Lu Xiaoxiao smiled softly and said, "That's fineβI'm always worried about how you will be affected by this, such as not daring to see the .....wind and snow from now on."
Outside the building, the cold wind blew the snow into the building, and landed on the back of Nandao's hand on his knees.
Then it turned into a bloodstain.
It's just to disappear very quickly.
Lu Xiaoxiao looked at Nandao's hand silently, she may know something, she may not know.
So he looked up at the umbrella in the South Island again.
Nandao just calmly withdrew his hand, sat quietly under the umbrella, and said softly: "I am a person who does not dare to see the wind and snow." β
Both in the past and in the present.
It's not just that without this umbrella, there will be wind and snow in the world.
The rain and snow in the world have always been looking for him.
It's just that the current South Island has been able to have a certain degree of resistance to some of the damage in these winds and snows.
So sometimes it's not very painful to get some rain and see some snow.
On the contrary, it reminds the South Island of what it has done to make it a point.
Lu Xiaoxiao didn't ask anything, just sat quietly on the side.
Nandao laughed softly, looked at Lu Xiaoxiao, and also looked at Le Chaotian, who was sleeping with a pillow in front of the stove in the building.
"Senior sister doesn't have to think about anything. I have learned a lot from my junior disciples these days. β
Lu Xiaoxiao tilted his head to look at Nandao, and then laughed very easily, facing the heavy snow that swept Lingnan, and said: "In this way, for junior brothers, this heavy snow is indeed a rare scenery. β
Nandao smiled and said, "Yes." β
