The heat is the hottest time of the year, and the heat and humidity reach its peak at this time.

And after the great heat, it is only half a month before the beginning of autumn.

As the thirteenth of the 24 solar terms, the beginning of autumn means that the year is more than half.

The beginning of autumn is the turning point of the gradual harvest of yang energy and the gradual growth of yin energy, which is also very much in line with the common sense of heaven and earth that the middle of the day will move and the moon will wane.

However, the beginning of autumn does not mean that the hot weather of the year has been exhausted, the so-called "heat in the three dogs", before and after the heat is the beginning of the middle of the volt, and the end of the autumn is after the autumn, which is the real cool autumn generally refers to the white dew.

Jiang Yichen was trapped by tuberculosis when he was young, and every time the weather in the beginning of autumn will not change, he will always have a few more close-fitting warm clothes on his body in advance, and he will always drink various soups with different patterns to strengthen his body before going to bed at night.

It was Huo Yinniang's meticulous care in those years, coupled with the sensible boy's practice of martial arts that did not fall for a day, that he had to get out of the control of the disease.

It's another year of autumn, and the warmth and love of my mother have been dead for many years.

Young children who used to be particularly afraid of cold have learned how to be in the company of the cold.

His heart is cold, his hands are cold, and his sword is even colder.

Although it was not difficult for him to avoid the various secret outposts hidden in Jiangning County and not disturb the eyes of the various parties who were ambushed in the Listening Rain Pavilion, unfortunately several ears and eyes who were recognized were poisoned by him.

He has no less than a hundred ways to make those people die, but he is not half suspicious.

This is the first time Jiang Yichen has entered the Listening Rain Pavilion.

It is neither early nor too late.

It was after dinner, when everyone had finished handling important matters, digested the meal, and went back to their rooms to change their clothes.

He hung upside down like a bat on the eaves outside Luo Piaoling's house.

As soon as his feet left the cornice and were hanging in the air, he suddenly felt a chill on his back, and his hair stood on end!

He felt two chilling and abnormal killing intents, locking on the two key points that were most difficult for him to take care of at the moment!

Jiang Yichen didn't have to hesitate, and he wasn't allowed to be more prepared, so he could only take the lead in dealing with the nearest approaching danger!

The figure that floated down like a fallen leaf curled up like a dead caterpillar in an instant!

And it's facing the courtyard, with the soles of your feet facing the back of your head, curled upside down!

At the same time, he had pulled out his dumbness and threw the fiery stick-like scabbard out.

Jiang Yichen naturally didn't expect the scabbard to hurt people, but only expected to interfere with the other party a little.

Boom!

Sure enough, in an instant, the two sharp blades struck the dumb sword together, making a muffled sound.

The dumb scabbard fell a little later.

As a result, Jiang Yichen's body fell a little faster, and if there was no accident, his abdomen would hit the ground within two breaths.

Jiang Yichen will definitely not sit still.

I saw that his legs were straightened, his feet were interlocked, and his body turned like a spinning top.

The twisting of the wrist and the rotation of the body make the sword shadow like a tornado.

This move led to attack in the middle, but it also made the person who shot have some scruples and suspended the offensive.

However, the other party is not easy to match, so he fell to the ground first, went around to Jiang Yichen's side and then made a killing move!

Jiang Yichen caught a glimpse of the opponent's behavior out of the corner of his eye, he was not in a hurry or impatient, the blade of the sword touched the ground, stirred up the dust, and used his strength to twist his body and keep up with the plan to break the formation.

Rao is move is like a cloud and a smooth flow in one go, but in the end, the shot is half a beat slower.

The master has made a move, and the details determine success or failure.

Jiang Yichen didn't dare to be careless, not only urging the Yin Wind Gong to enhance the lethality when he was out of the sword, but also using the Frost and Snow True Qi to suppress the array.

In this way, even if the opponent can avoid his breaking formation, he must be guarded against being controlled by the extreme cold air before and after the deception.

Of course, in this battle of wits and courage, Jiang Yichen's biggest reliance is to use the length of the sword to prevent the shortness of the dagger.

One inch is short and one inch is dangerous, as long as the opponent's light martial arts and body skills are not better than Jiang Yichen's, then every close-quarters surprise attack has to weigh whether it will be the first to be injured by the dumb sword blade.

If the other party is desperate to attack, both sides should lose both, but Jiang Yichen is still a passive side, but if the other party is jealous and retreats slightly, it is an opportunity for Jiang Yichen to counterattack against the guest.

For a while, the wind howled in the courtyard outside Luo Piao's house, and the cold was very strong!

The other party retreated.

It actually retreated to three feet away!

Jiang Yichen stood in place, holding the dumb sword blade that was about to move at his opponent.

It was not too late, and the moonlight was not too dark, but without using his true qi to open his eyes, Jiang Yichen couldn't see who was outside the three zhang at all.

It's just a rough guess about its identity.

I vaguely saw that the other party made an arching action, presumably when he used his internal strength, he also taught the other party to know his identity.

Jiang Yichen didn't forget where this was, nor did he forget that he was also a guest, so he immediately put away his sword and returned the salute.

From drawing the sword to retracting the sword, only ten breaths of effort have passed, but it has caused a lot of noise.

This is really not what Jiang Yichen, who intended to act secretly, wanted.

Several figures have appeared in the small courtyard.

Seeing that the situation was about to become tense, fortunately, the master's house finally pushed open the door.

Seeing the scene outside and the people coming, he was also slightly stunned, and then smiled: "Rare guest, rare guest, it is windy late, please come into the house to talk in detail." ”

With Luo Piaoling's words, everyone let down their guard and retreated.

Jiang Yichen made amends to everyone one by one.

He smiled bitterly at the dissipating figure on the far wall, and then walked into the house.

That figure was the source of another killing machine that had locked Jiang Yichen before, and it was also the strongest combat power in the Listening Rain Pavilion that he knew.

On the autumn night in Xijiang County two years ago, the reason why Jiang Yichen had to reveal his identity to save his life was because he couldn't get out of Floating Shadow's hands.

Afterwards, he realized that if it hadn't been for the wanton instructions in advance to keep him alive, he was afraid that he would have died before Feipiao and the others caught up.

This time he listened to the rain pavilion at night, and he also had a tentative heart, wanting to see if he could sneak in successfully without disturbing the floating shadow.

Who knew that he was still discovered, thinking that Floating Shadow was aware of his identity, so he only released the killing machine and did not make a move.

Otherwise, with one enemy and two, Jiang Yichen will be captured without ten breaths.

As for Dong Qing, who directly fought Jiang Yichen, when and why he joined Tingyu Pavilion, it is unknown.

......

......

The furnishings are simple and elegant.

But Jiang Yichen didn't have the heart to appreciate it, he just looked at Luo Piaoling's back.

The back is still slender, the sickness is still the same, there are not a few more taels of meat, there is no uprightness and no majesty, except that the pace is more calm, the rest is the same as five years ago.

He really couldn't understand what kind of indescribable charm such a body had, so able to gather people's hearts.

What kind of strong heart is there in such a body, which can be unswerving in the wind and waves.

What kind of wisdom is in such a body, which can easily navigate the collision of multiple conspiracies.

The figure turned around and looked back at him with a smile like a spring breeze.

Luo Piaoling was not in a hurry to invite Jiang Yichen to take a seat, and said with a little emotion: "It's been five years." ”

"Five years ago, I only thought you were a child. ”

"I may be trained by the old man to be very strong, but I am bound to die early between birth and death. ”

"Who knew that you had been silent for three years due to the changes in Xishan Island, and after you re-entered the rivers and lakes, you listened to the rain pavilion to thank you many times to tide over the difficulties. ”

"Five years ago, I was just a sick man with a cripple in your eyes. ”

"It is not easy to pull up a gang without the power of a chicken, and how can it get involved in the overall situation of the rivers and lakes. ”

Jiang Yichen hurriedly said: "Brother Luo is serious. ”

Luo Piaoling patted Jiang Yichen on the shoulder and said, "Although you and I have known each other for a long time, we may not be closer than the others in the pavilion, but this does not prevent you and me from trusting each other, right?"

Jiang Yichen failed to understand the deep meaning of the words, and only felt that the hand that fell on his shoulder was a little heavy, and he bowed slightly.

Then, under Luo Piaoling's eyes, they lifted the round wooden table that one person could hold aside.

Luo Piaoling squatted down and pushed a few pieces of bamboo and wood horizontally and vertically on the floor, as if unlocking some kind of Karakuri.

Soon, a secret door to the ground opened on the bamboo floor.

The secret door was not large, and if the log table was still on it, it had to be hunched down and peeked in between the four legs.

Jiang Yichen did not doubt him, and Yiluo drifted into the secret passage first.

When both of them stepped into the secret passage staircase, they only heard Luo Piaoling tap on the wall a few times, and the secret passage door closed automatically.

Jiang Yichen found that the percussion sound spread in all directions along the stone wall.
