There is no rain today, but the sky is full of stars and moons, and the surface of the lake is crystal clear, beautiful like a mirror polished by a dream.

Pei Li stood at the stern of the boat and shook the oars hard, but the boat was wobbly, still getting farther and farther away from the center of the lake.

The bright-eyed girl sat in the cabin, her skirt spread out into a blue flower, looked up at him and smiled: "Liar, where will you draw?" ”

Pei Ye's face was indeed a little red: "I asked someone about it, don't worry." ”

The sword is indeed a quality that is independent of everything, and although the superb control of the young man when he made the sword draw his eyes has not disappeared at this time, he has lost the genius who can learn it.

"There's no wind today." The girl grinned.

"Don't move."

I didn't move!"

"You secretly moved." Pei Ye is the most vexatious.

Li Yiqing was angry, puffed up a breath, grabbed the edge of the boat with both hands and shook violently.

"Eh, don't make trouble!" Pei Li, who was concentrating on the movement, immediately became anxious, "Li Yiqing!" It's messed up. The gentleman doesn't move his hands! ”

"Don't shake it, don't shake it! Sorry you didn't move. Oh! What a mess! ”

But Li Yiqing didn't care at all, only held his face and shook vigorously, until the boy gave up completely, let out a rough breath, threw the oar, stepped back into the cabin, and sat beside her.

The girl stopped and laughed happily: "Didn't you say I moved!" ”

"I'm kidding you." Pei Ye was a little depressed, "I said that I would take you to the center of the lake by boat, I don't know it well, and you keep making trouble, how can you go?" ”

Seeing that the young man seemed to be really unhappy, the girl became nervous: "When, you said you must go to the center of the lake?" ”

"What you said the other day. It was the day you asked me out. Pei Ye's voice lowered, a little guilty, "You said that you went to the center of the lake to see the night rain in Jinghu Lake, but I was stupid and stupid that day, and I was sorry for you. I want to take you there today. ”

I didn't think about it." Li Yiqing smiled softly and said softly.

"You said it yourself."

"I really didn't think about it. That's just an excuse. The girl's cheeks flushed slightly, and her voice lowered, "I just want to. Boating with you. ”

“.”

The cabin was not big, and the girl leaned gently to his side, the sleeves of the two people touched together, and she looked up at his side face and whispered, "It's okay anywhere, so I'll be very happy." ”

Pei Li's heart was pounding, and he found that they really couldn't go back to the jokes they used to have—from another angle—because now he seemed to be a little too nervous and blushing and stupid in front of her.

"So here we are?"

"Okay." Li Yiqing gently stretched out her legs, "I'm so happy today, Pei Li." ”

I'm sorry."

"Don't be so sorry!" The girl laughed, "You're not done!" ”

“.”

"It's not all your business." Li Yiqing put his hands behind and looked at the soft stars, "I lost the sword test of the Sword Cultivation Academy yesterday, and I was also very uncomfortable, especially I didn't dare to see the master." But today I received a reply from Master, saying that it was really just right, and that he could keep me by his side and spend more time with him. ”

The girl smiled, "I know he's comforting me, but I'm still happy." ”

"Then, I also saw the Ming Sword Lord today, and I actually talked so much to the Ming Sword Master, and she also said that I could study the Sword Academy-I haven't had time to tell the master yet." The girl recalled, "And the most important thing."

She turned her head to look at the boy, wanting to pretend to be angry, but the moment she saw him, she laughed: "It's good to get back together with a fool." ”

“.” Pei Ye was a little embarrassed.

"Why are you so stupid! Like it or not. Don't you know? ”

Pei Li finally stopped being dumb: "Did you know it early?" ”

"I knew before you. Two days. The girl stretched out two fingers and clamped them.

"Know what?" Pei Ye was dazed.

"I know—" Li Yiqing said as a matter of course, but he paused again, his face flushed, "You are annoying, I won't tell you." ”

Pei Ye stepped forward and didn't relent: "Say it quickly, what do you know?" ”

"I don't know anything." Li Yiqing turned his head and dodged for a moment, diverting the topic, "Pei Li, how did you and the Ming Sword Master meet?" ”

“.”

"I invited you to come that day, I just wanted to talk to you about this." Li Yiqing looked back at him, "I've told you everything, but you've told me about it." ”

"I told you that Miss Ming is my savior." Pei Ye left a little and said in a low voice.

"Hmm."

"In fact, she is the life-saving benefactor of the entire Fenghuai County." Pei Ye looked at the lake, "At the beginning of August, Fenghuai suffered a great disaster, Miss Ming was passing through Xincang Mountain at that time, she first saved me, and then helped Fenghuai delay for a while. ”

Li Yiqing was stunned: "I haven't heard of it. ”

"The immortal platform from Shenjing has blocked the news." Pei Li said, "This matter is very serious, Lord Sui said that he had asked about it, but he didn't reveal his words. ”

“.” Li Yiqing didn't ask again, only looked at him worriedly, "Then is this matter resolved?" ”

"Solved." Pei Ye was silent for a moment, "The elder who taught me the sword solved it, and he also died in this disaster." But the thing that made this catastrophe is still alive. ”

"Yes, what? Sky Tower? ”

I don't know. It should be, something above the skytower. Pei Ye looked at her, "The sky tower is up, is there still a realm?" ”

"I don't know." Li Yiqing was stunned for a moment, "I only know that the Tianshan Sect is only a heavenly tower, but he is a very high heavenly tower, which is a very long realm. ”

Pei Li nodded and said in a low voice: "They said that it is not good to know these things, so I won't tell you, but you have to remember."

He looked at the girl's eyes seriously: "If you see something related to the humanoid monster with dark blue scales, the [Candle World Sect], and this symbol, you must stay away as soon as possible." ”

He sketched half of the tree in the cabin, carefully not finishing.

"Okay." Li Yiqing was a little stunned, and the two were silent for a while.

Finally, the girl couldn't help but say, "Then, Pei Li, what are you going to do later?" ”

She looked at him with some concern.

"I'll go to Shenjing first." Pei Li was quiet for a while and said, "Become strong enough, get a weapon that is effective enough, and then find where they are." ”

The girl was silent.

"What's wrong?" Pei Li noticed her emotions.

"So. You're going to Shenjing and not going back to Bowang, aren't you? Li Yiqing's face was a little pale.

Pei Li immediately remembered Qi Zhaohua's words at that time, and hurriedly leaned in with her: "You go too." ”

“.” Li Yiqing was stunned, "How can I go?" ”

Pei Li smiled: "I asked Miss Ming to write you a letter of recommendation to go to the Shenjing Sword Cultivation Academy-I have thought about this question for a long time." ”

But the girl was not as happy as he imagined, but a little dazed: "You say. I'm going to Shenjing with you? ”

Only then did Pei Ye realize that this proposal had actually been just his own excited self-talk, and at this time, his heart also twitched, and he said softly: "Yes, since you are going to Shaolong Sword Cultivation Academy, why don't you just go to Shenjing Sword Cultivation Academy?" Even if you have to go back to Shaolong in a few years. At that time, I may also leave Shenjing. ”

“.” Li Yiqing was still stunned, "I thought you were talking about Shaolong's letter of recommendation, and I have never left Shaolong." ”

For a girl who grew up in Yilan Mountain, it was indeed too sudden to suddenly ask her to leave her hometown and go to a distant and strange capital at this time.

Pei Lixin pinched up a little bit: "Don't you want to go?" ”

"No, I just wasn't prepared for a while." The girl bowed her head, "And Master doesn't have much time left." ”

“.”

"In Shaolong, I can at least come back to see him often."

"In Shenjing, we can come back often, it just takes a little more time." Pei Li's throat was a little dry.

"Hmm." The girl was silent for a while, and then suddenly said, "Actually, if I tell Master about this, he will definitely ask me to go to the Shenjing Sword Cultivation Academy, which is always better than Shaolong." ”

She glanced at the nervous teenager and smiled softly, "Don't worry so much, I just need to react for a while." I want to be with you too. ”

Pei Ye suddenly showed a smile on his face: "Then I'll look at you. The face is very messy. ”

"Because you're telling me too much at once." Li Yiqing smiled gently, indeed a little depressed, "Do you know Pei Li, in fact, since very early on, I feel that we are like people from two worlds. ”

“.”

"You see, you have a good talent, you learned the sword at the age of seventeen, you can kill seven lives alone, those difficulties I face, you can easily solve them." Under the cool lake breeze, the girl slowly poured out the confusion in her heart, "The Sword Cultivation Academy wants you, and the Ming Sword Master also praises you, the enemy in your eyes is higher than the heavenly tower."

"And that's where I can't see anymore." Li Yiqing looked at him and lowered his eyebrows slightly, "I just want to bring a small faction like Cui Yu to the first position in the three states, so, sometimes I feel that . We're really far away. ”

Pei Ye was silent and whispered: "I know that, therefore, I have never dared to tell you these things." ”

"yes, so."

"So what does it have to do with all this?" Pei Ye turned his head to look at the girl beside him, and the two of them looked at each other.

Pei Ye said softly: "Talent is born, can it judge a person's good or bad?" Ethereal green. I like you who can laugh happily in any difficult situation, and I like you who must do what you have to do, even if you can't practice and can't practice swords, I'm "

He lowered his body, looked at the girl's face and whispered, "I also think that you are even better looking than Miss Ming." ”

Li Yiqing's eyes were already red, and she couldn't help but smile at this time: "It's good if you lie to me once." ”

Pei Ye also smiled, but was still stubborn: "Really! The other one looks good! ”

Li Yiqing then lowered his head with a blushing face, and said softly: "Then I won't be inferior to you because of myself. I was screwed in my heart. ”

Pei Li's face suddenly burst into a happy smile, he straightened up, touched something out of his arms, hid it in the palm of his hand, and stretched out the back of his hand to the girl: "The gift I prepared for you." ”

“.” Li Yiqing's bright eyes looked at him in surprise, "What is it?" ”

"Guess what."

"Last time, I said that I was going to use the sword, and I have to wait for the Ming Sword Master to come-" Li Yiqing said with a smile, suddenly paused, and looked at this fist in a daze, already knowing what was inside.

Pei Ye slowly opened his hand and said softly: "I saw that you always held the finger sword that your senior brother forged for you, and then it broke, and you also held it tightly in your hand. People can't be resurrected after death, but you said that Miss Ming is the pillar of your heart, I thought. Ask her to help you cast the same [Heart Cutting Glass], you may be in a better mood, I don't know if it counts as filling some regrets. Or maybe it's my self-righteousness."

On the palm of the young man's outstretched palm, there was a lifelike [Heart-Cutting Glass], there was no machine spring, but there was a sharp Yunbai True Qi fixed in it by a miraculous means.

The small characters engraved on it are clear and bright: "Looking back on the green color, shaking the ethereal green." [Ming Qitian]".

“.” Li Yiqing picked up the little sword and looked at it quietly for a while.

"Do you like it?" Pei Ye asked with some apprehension.

"I don't like it."

“.”

But when the girl raised her head, her eyes were red and she muttered, "Why don't you have your name?" ”

"Ah, I think. I can't."

"This is a gift from you." Li Yiqing handed it to him and said softly, "Pei Li, you are in my heart. Very, very important. I want to see it, with your name on it. ”

“.”

It wasn't until the boy carefully carved the word "Pei Li" on it that Li Yiqing took it back, and his face was a little red: "Pei Li. I think we have a bit of a heart. ”

Pei Ye seemed to have passed the nervous stage at the beginning at this time, and blinked: "We must have a heart!" ”

"Oops~" Li Yiqing smiled, "I'm serious, I'm going to send you. It also refers to the upper sword, and the carving is similar. ”

"Huh?"

The girl looked at him softly and said, "Do you know what the next line of this poem is?" ”

"I don't know, that's all you told me."

"Then I'll talk about it when I'm sending you."

"Okay." Pei Ye was actually not so anxious to know, at this time he was brewing a rather bold bad thing in his heart.

The boat was quiet, only the sound of the boat rippling water, Li Yiqing looked at this beautiful little sword, a soft heart was filled, and she said lightly: "Pei Li——"

Her tone stiffened, and her body tensed slightly.

The young man next to him lowered his head and didn't look at her, but a hand reached out and lightly touched her hand on the ground.

Then, as if the temptation was successful, Pei Ye slowly climbed up, the girl's hand was cool and soft, and he crossed his fingers over his fingers, clenching them deeply.

The lake night was as quiet as a dream, and the two of them were quiet and motionless, and then, Li Yiqing moved slightly to him, and slowly, leaned half of his body on his chest.

The warm rise and fall of her chest was close at hand, and the girl turned her head and buried half of her face in it, and her voice was soft and muffled: "Pei Li. I like you so much. ”

"Me too."

In the bright boat of Jinghu Lake, young boys and girls leaned lightly against each other, and the two cyan clothes seemed to blend, and the color was like lotus leaves in autumn.

It's beautiful when it's in a dream.
