Chapter 8: Ice Wine and Silver [5]

Liu Ruiying felt that a figure suddenly flashed away in his afterglow.

When I looked up, the little beggar was gone.

Out of sight, out of mind.

He was indeed reluctant to let Liu Ruiying die.

But Liu Ruiying had to die again.

So just leave.

It's also an excellent way to soothe yourself.

Since he didn't see it, it can be assumed that he didn't happen.

The departure of the little beggar broke Liu Ruiying's last illusion.

He thought that the little beggar would really intervene in Jing Yao because he was reluctant to die by himself.

But now it seems to be self-inflicted.

But this is inevitably the case.

Everyone wants to have a shortcut.

Sometimes I can grasp that last straw.

But more shortcuts are the gateway to perdition.

Liu Ruiying was still confronting Jing Yao.

Although Jing Yao was anxious, Liu Ruiying could see that he was trying his best to restrain himself.

Time flies.

The sun has sunset.

Today's moon rises much earlier than usual!

The sun has not yet set.

You can already see a full moon in the sky.

Although the moonlight is not bright enough.

But after all, it also rose.

Jing Yao looked at the sky and smiled.

What did the little beggar say before, the sun and the moon shine together.

Now there is no need to pave the ground with silver, isn't it the same sun and the moon?

After all, human calculation is not as good as heavenly calculation.

But there are really a few people who can say this.

The moon has not yet risen.

The low pressure is not high on the beams.

At least from Liu Ruiying's point of view.

Hua Nong stopped talking.

He also felt the oppression between this life-and-death duel.

Even the occasional birdsong from earlier closed its mouth.

Animals are always more sensitive than humans.

Sensing the crisis, it will naturally fly high and go out.

Suddenly.

Jing Yao pulled out his scimitar.

The sword light soared into the sky.

The round sword seems to be competing with the moon!

Along with this, there was also the roar that came when the sword qi broke through the air.

Liu Ruiying looked at the scene in front of her and smiled.

Jing Yao still went out before herself after all.

He couldn't contain his anxiety after all.

Now the edge has been shown.

What is waiting is Liu Ruiying's harmony.

Nevertheless.

But if the edge is too much, can Liu Ruiying's mellowness really be resisted?

He didn't know the bottom of his heart.

With the gloom of this sword.

Liu Ruiying's face turned pale.

Jing Yao's scimitar seemed to attract the afterglow of the sunset.

The sun was setting fast.

I don't know if Liu Ruiying's sense of time is wrong, or if that's indeed the case.

In short, he felt that today's sunset was a little too short.

The sun is gone.

There is only one moon above the canopy.

A round of the same moon as the scimitar in Jing Yao's hand.

A silvery moon overhead.

A snow-white knife in his hand.

Liu Ruiying's pale face was reflected.

"You still don't have a sword?"

Jing Yao asked.

He looked up at his sword and the moon.

The pride in his heart has already made his eyes empty.

"It's not time yet. ”

Liu Ruiying said.

"Are you going to be like that silly boy, waiting for my flaws?"

Jing Yao said.

Liu Ruiying did not deny it.

Because he knew that Jing Yao's heart was already in turmoil.

Although his sword is very amazing.

But the heart is upset.

Defeat is assured.

Liu Ruiying is not a decent gentleman.

So this is indeed an excellent time for him to draw his sword.

But at this moment, he changed his mind.

It's not because he doesn't want to take advantage of others.

Rather, he wanted to see how much he had grown.

"But you'll be out of the sword sooner or later. ”

Jing Yao said.

"That's right. After all, I'm not going to be killed. ”

Liu Ruiying said.

"So what are you waiting for. ”

Jing Yao asked.

"Wait for the moment when your sword is at its peak. ”

Liu Ruiying said.

"Isn't it the pinnacle now?"

Jing Yao asked with a frown.

He also didn't know where his peak was.

But with this knife, he mobilized the strength of the department.

It's much more serious than the knife in the restaurant before.

Jing Yao suddenly smiled.

Liu Ruiying put away the smile on her face and the secret joy in her heart.

A person only laughs when he is at peace.

Laughter means calmness.

As long as a person can still laugh, it means that his state of mind has stabilized.

Liu Ruiying also wanted to laugh.

It's just that he wants to smile bitterly.

Because he regretted it.

regretted that he didn't use his sword when Jing Yao was in an unstable state of mind before.

Dragged on until now, the best time has been lost.

People always do.

When educating others, those truths are the first to be said.

But if you really put it on yourself, you won't abide by any of it.

Just like Liu Ruiying told Hua Nong, hesitation will lead to defeat.

But now he is more hesitant than Hua Nong.

But once you figure out these nodes.

Liu Ruiying also calmed down.

He could also laugh with Jing Yao indifferently.

The moon gradually rose.

It has risen to a place where Jing Yao's sword is out of reach.

But the stars have not yet appeared.

But aren't the smiling faces of Liu Ruiying and Jing Yao even brighter than the starlight?

Jing Yao also put away her own conquest.

Because he understood a lot from Liu Ruiying's laughter.

There was sadness and determination in his smile.

There is immeasurable sadness about the future.

There is also a sword trick that will fight at this moment.

The steppe people always have a natural respect for the strong.

Until this moment.

Jing Yao admired Liu Ruiying from the bottom of her heart.

By the way, he also has understanding and respect for the Central Capital Investigation Division behind him.

Gradually, Jing Yao's gaze softened.

"I'm sorry!"

Jing Yao lowered her head slightly and said.

This is the maximum sincerity for the arrogant him.

"Why all of a sudden?"

Liu Ruiying asked.

"Because I misread you before. ”

Jing Yao said.

"Man lives to be mistaken by others. ”

Liu Ruiying said.

I don't think so.

"But the meaning of life is not to break the misperception of others again and again?"

Jing Yao said.

"Why break it? The wrong person will never change. And the right person will never look wrong. ”

Liu Ruiying said.

"Isn't it true that those who look at the right ones won't be disappointed?"

Jing Yao asked.

Liu Ruiying did not answer.

He felt that his relationship with Jing Yao was a little complicated at the moment.

It may not be possible to talk about sympathy.

But there is indeed an inexplicable bond.

This bond cannot be depicted in terms of people and feelings.

Hatred?

Naturally, there is.

Jing Yao killed the province of the Central Capital Investigation Division, and also robbed the salary.

even forced Liu Ruiying to kill several times at the moment of life and death.

If there was no hatred, neither of them would believe it.

Grievances?

There seems to be quite a few of them.

Jing Yao was obviously able to completely wipe out Liu Ruiying with an overwhelming advantage at the beginning.

But he used this as a teasing because of his arrogance and contempt for Liu Ruiying.

Played with by others.

How can Liu Ruiying not be resentful?

But this hatred is innate.

The people in the Five Great Princely Domains are afraid that they all have hatred for the Prairie Royal Court.

But resentment is new.

If Jing Yao regards Liu Ruiying as an opponent worthy of respect.

Even if Liu Ruiying died tragically under his sword, Liu Ruiying would not have any resentment.

Hua Nong, who was standing on the side, couldn't understand these emotions between the two.

But he suddenly felt a little sour.

This unexplained sourness even moved him a little.

His eyes ached.

It was the first time he had felt this way.

Hua Nong covered his eyes with both hands.

I don't know what's going on.

But tears flowed from his fingers.

He cried.

He had never cried before.

Even when he saw the little beggar crying just now, he didn't know what it was.

But now he himself is crying.

Liu Ruiying watched all this silently.

I was very happy.

Because Hua Nong is a real person at the moment.

A flesh-and-blood, real person.

Not only do people have to be able to laugh, but they also have to be able to cry.

None of them are human.

Because when people live, they have thoughts.

With thought comes sadness.

Even the sadness of moaning without illness is considered sadness.

This is a must-have for a person.

Now Hua Nong is crying.

It shows that he already has grief.

Even if he didn't understand the meaning of the sadness, he at least did.

With grief comes worry.

He was worried about Liu Ruiying.

Worried about his uncle.

Worried about whether he could dodge Jing Yao's knife.

He saw his former self from Jing Yao's sword.

That indifferent and inhuman self.

Before, his sword was also emotionless.

Sword only to survive.

There are no ties.

So his sword is fast.

But then, he walked out of the mountains.

With a master, there is an uncle.

For the first time, I felt the joy of communicating with people.

I felt the warmth of being cared for.

So his sword was in bondage.

With a sword that is bound, it will naturally be slow.

Because a tie is a weakness, a burden.

With a burden on the sword, how can it still be as fast as before?

At the moment when Hua Nong's sword and Jing Yao's knife touched.

He felt a sense of familiarity.

That's how I felt when I used to come out with a sword.

But now he has learned to cry.

Take a look out of that circle.

only to find that Jing Yao's knife was also changing.

It doesn't seem to be as ruthless as it used to be.

Jing Yao's knife was only born for revenge.

This scimitar will bring him endless victories.

And in exchange for these victories, glory and power.

It is the necessary capital for him to take revenge.

So he only has a knife in his heart.

But now, the blade of this knife in the heart is a little blurry.

Because he also had some feelings other than revenge for the first time because of Liu Ruiying's appearance.

In fact, Jing Yao's knife was still cold.

It's just that Hua Nong can't realize it.

Liu Ruiying felt extremely profoundly.

Even delusions were created.

It feels as if it's not late spring, but the middle of winter.

The plants, trees, flowers and leaves were all shattered by the sharp knife qi.

It's like a northwest wind.

Blow non-stop.

Through this sword, it seems that you can see the water droplets that have formed ice crystals.

In winter, it is always too plain.

Because white is the purest color.

And in winter, I can't find any other color in the heavens and the earth.

Pure white, quiet, make people forget impetuousness and anxiety.

Take a deep breath of cold air.

You can also feel a burst of heartfelt refreshment.

Then the white breath that came out of his mouth was a touch of fun in this simplicity.

But winter is a season of reserves.

All life is covered with snow.

But what they are waiting for is the bloom after the snow melts.

Although grim and cold.

But it can make people tough and tenacious!

Liu Ruiying's hand finally grasped the hilt of the sword.

"Is it time now?"

Jing Yao asked.

"It's here!"

Liu Ruiying nodded.

Jing Yao's sword is winter.

I want to freeze the earth and the mountains and rivers.

But Liu Ruiying's sword is the life that is accumulating under this ice.

He's out of the sword!

It's like the last winter day!

Although the sky has not yet turned blue.

It's still foggy.

But as long as this round of red sun rises.

The snow and ice will begin to melt.

The bright and dazzling warm sun will make the whole earth gradually Fusu.

Mountains and rivers thaw.

Everything is stunned.

Grass straightened up.

The dew was finally able to roll back and forth freely.

The surface of the lake also began to ripple in circles.

The temperature of the water spread to the shore.

Attract flocks of waterfowl to frolic in the lake.

As Liu Ruiying's sword was slowly pulled out, it gathered above his head.

Heaven and earth were suddenly filled with infinite vitality.

And it continues to grow, spread.

If you say that when you first draw your sword, it is just the beginning of the rising sun.

Now, it's spring.

The east wind blows across the earth again.

The sky has turned blue.

Blue transparency.

It's like a gem of Hunyuan.

Xingyun also began to circulate in large areas.

The sound of the river became more and more fierce and intense.

Winter seems to be instantaneous.

Spring, on the other hand, began to gradually turn into eternity.

Jing Yao felt Liu Ruiying's sword intent.

This vibrant, fire-like sword intent.

His sword was a little defeated.

Because winter, sooner or later, will be swallowed up by spring, instead.

This is the law of nature, and no one can break it.

But Jing Yao obviously wouldn't let it go like this.

Although winter is a kind of subtlety.

Because it has gone through the fragrance of spring and the heat of summer.

Winter is the end of the year.

It's like an old man.

Although look at the vicissitudes of life.

But there is the flow of the sun and the moon in his eyes.

This is a profound experience that has been experienced over the course of a year.

It's not something that can be easily defeated by a new spring.

Jing Yao's winter.

Able to tolerate all emotions.

Calmly face all the ups and downs, prosperity and decline.

For him, spring is just a small childhood memory.

Although it's like a dream.

But it's not a cause for concern.

If you refine a lifetime into a year.

So how much passion and gains and losses should this winter carry?

Beneath the kind face, I don't know how many hidden outbursts are buried.

He just held back the throbbing in his heart.

Although it is less pompous and gorgeous.

But that doesn't mean he can't go crazy again!

Jing Yao's face turned grim.

He vowed to go against the sky, and he would never let the cold recede.

But providence is hard to do.

How many opportunities can I have?

Hua Nong stood between the two.

On one side was a cold wind.

Inch by inch cut at his skin.

On one side is a warm eye.

Little by little, it penetrated into his heart.

Although he has no preference for the season.

But he was the most natural of the three people present.

He knows the sanctity of nature.

I also know the consequences of going against the sky.

So he already has a judgment in his heart.

"Even if you wait for your time, I will never give up my time!"

Jing Yao said.

He pressed both hands against the hilt.

"We are all resolute people. If you say this to me, then you don't need to. If you tell yourself, you want to use it to boost your momentum. Then I can make it more beautiful, maybe it will be more useful to you. ”

Liu Ruiying said.

His tone was flat.

He looked peaceful.

Besides, it's spring.

He took up all the hours.

If the fight between the two was a month ago.

The ending must be that Liu Ruiying's human head fell to the ground like the previous gold beads, and he didn't know where to roll.

The victory and defeat are reversed, and the life is endless.

Mixed elements are one, which is infinite.

Liu Ruiying's summary was used by himself after all.

Speaking of which, he had to thank the little beggar.

Thanks also to Huanon.

If it weren't for the invisible confrontation between the two before.

How did he understand this?

No matter how tenacious the ice and snow are, they will only melt in the end.

Even the full spring will wither and decay.

But at least it lasts longer than the winter snow.

What's more, there is a summer and an autumn in the middle.
