After Xiao Zhong watched the figure of the steward in the dark night of the Qing Mansion, she glanced back at the main seat of the Qing Mansion.

The window of Qingran's room still shone with a faint light.

She knew that Qing Ran hadn't rested yet.

A person who is not sick will naturally not go to bed so early.

But Jin Ye and Li Junchang did not come back with him.

Maybe he found a place to drink again, maybe he went to the wrong door and Xiao Zhong didn't notice it.

However, since Qing Ran had said this so clearly, Xiao Zhong's family could no longer flinch.

Although others looked like Qing Ran didn't say anything.

It's just a portrait left.

But the entanglement between the person written on this paper, the person on the paper, himself, and Qingran is a pain that Xiao Zhong can never avoid......

"They're all insiders, why do you have to pretend to be so detached?"

Xiao Zhong looked at Qingran's window and muttered in his heart.

But he said it inadvertently.

"Either way, you're my lady. Although my wife gave me a daughter, he always had another person in his heart. I'm afraid even a man can't stand it!"

A voice sounded in Xiao Zhong's ear.

It turned out that Qing Ran used his strength to transmit the sound, which went straight into his ears.

Her body suddenly became smart......

I was at a loss for a while, and I couldn't cry or laugh.

"You already knew this, why didn't you give me a letter of resignation?!"

Xiao Zhong said.

But the words came out loud.

I'm afraid no one in the entire Qingfu can't hear it.

It can even be carried by the wind to the lonely sea red forest over there.

"I've always considered him a friend, and you've always been my wife. ”

Qing Ran's voice was calm and steady.

It's just a steady statement of facts, without a trace of self-emotion.

Back then, Yue Yaomo came to Hongzhou to talk to Li Zhenghui, but he didn't expect that when he arrived in Hongzhou, the first thing he heard was that Li Zhenghui died violently.

As for the reason, no one knows.

There was no rumor from the Li family.

People in the world also have the right to be careless when cultivating martial arts, which leads to the collapse of the yin and yang poles in the body.

For a martial arts cultivator, this is probably the most reasonable and satisfactory explanation.

However, this made Yue Yaomo in a dilemma......

I came to Hongzhou in the Zhenbei Kingdom Domain thousands of miles away, but what I saw was a coffin.

This coffin doesn't know how to practice, doesn't practice martial arts, and doesn't know how to use a knife.

How can this be?

But Yue Yaomo ran for moral rules, but he still went to Li's house to mourn.

It was in the Li family's mourning hall that he met Qing Ran.

Perhaps it was the intuition of the people in the rivers and lakes, and the two of them looked at each other for a long time in the solemnity of the mourning hall, and then laughed!

It was only at this time that Yue Yaomo felt that this trip to Hongzhou, which was in the Northern Domain, was not a loss!

Although there is constant friction between the Qingfu and the Li family, the competition is not endless.

But the work of face still has to be done in the past.

Qingran didn't like Li Zhenghui.

And he wasn't friends at all.

What's more, although Li Zhenghui is the same generation as him, he is already the head of the Li family.

This made him even more unconvinced......

However, on the occasion of this mourning, I met someone who hated to see each other late, and it was worth the trip for Qing Eryan.

Qing Ran led Yue Yaomo to a quiet place.

The landscape is picturesque, and the painting is like a landscape.

But it made Yue Yaomo, who was born in the Pingnan Royal Domain, very kind.

By the edge of a clear spring, it had just rained, and there was a sword and a knife stuck in the peach-like land.

The sword is Yue Yaomo's sword, nameless.

But it is also a famous sword that seals the throat when it sees blood.

The knife is Qingran's knife, and it is also nameless.

However, Qing Ran naturally thought that it was much faster than Li Zhenghui's knife!

Next to the clear spring, two men stood.

It seems that it has just rained, and his hair is wet and haphazard, even covering half of his face.

It was Qingran and Yue Yaomo.

Both were topless.

There is firmness and indifference in his eyes, but there is also a flash of heat from time to time!

It seems to be an epiphany, and it seems to be waiting for some kind of opportunity.

If people who don't know what is going on see this scene, they must think that there is something abnormal about these two people.

But only they know what they're going to do.

What can a swordsman with a resounding name in Hongzhou in the Zhenbei Domain, and a first-class swordsman in Sanmen Prefecture in the Pingnan Domain meet together?

Naturally, it is a sword comparison and a knife.

"You don't seem to be as famous as Li Zhenghui!"

Yue Yaomo opened his mouth and said.

"That's right, he is the head of the Li family, and I can only be regarded as a son of the Qingfu until now. ”

Qing Ran nodded and said.

"It's a pity that he died......"

Yue Yaomo said with a sigh.

"It doesn't matter if he dies. After all, the swordsman in Hongzhou doesn't know him. In addition to the Li family, there is also my Qingfu. In addition to him Li Zhenghui, there is also me Qingran. ”

Qing Ran said.

"So your name is Qingran!"

Yue Yaomo said.

Although the two still got along for an hour or two, Yue Yaomo just learned about each other's lives.

But for his character, it also makes sense.

Fellowship with people, regardless of whether the word morality is speculative or not.

If it's speculation, it's okay not to know the name.

If you don't speculate, what can you do if you know your name?

"The green deer is singing, and the chaff is still paid. ”

Qing Ran said.

"In this way, the word Qingran is an excellent name!"

Yue Yaomo said.

Qing Ran bowed slightly, and then fell silent.

Said that he wanted to compare the sword and asked the knife.

But their swords were stuck in the dirt that was not only beside them.

How can you compete empty-handed?

No one knew what a strange method they came up with.

That is sword stealing and knife stealing.

This is probably the only way to compete in the world.

Qing Ran stole Yue Yaomo's sword.

Yue Yaomo stole Qing Ran's knife.

?“ Click......"

The wind in the forest blew off the dead branches, and there was a series of ethereal and illusory sounds.

Each sound made the big pupils of the two shrink, and their hearts tightened......

This time, it was Qing Ran who struck first.

For a first-class swordsman, this sound is very redundant.

Although it is only a fight, it is not a fight for life and death.

But Qing Ran and Yue Yaomo are two extremely serious people.

Every fight will be treated as a battle of life and death.

This attitude alone is destined to be so thrilling......

The sound of the extra dead branches falling is a matter of life and death.

Yue Yaomo's hand trembled slightly.

Not nervous or scared.

It's a habit.

A habit of drawing a sword.

If the sword is in the hand, there is a mortal enemy in front of him.

With the sound of the dead branches falling, it was the best opportunity to make a move.

But he didn't have a sword in his hand.

But his two eyes, which were more fierce than sword light, still firmly locked on the location of the voice.

"The southeast corner, seven and a half feet away from me, ......"

Yue Yaomo thought silently in his heart.

Since it's a sword thief, it's like a child's game of hide and seek. You can't rush forward so openly.

Then it is a robbery, not a theft.

The thief pays attention to a surprising, and silent.

However, Yue Yaomo knew that the voice made by the withered branch just now must be Qingran's suspicious soldier.

He wasn't stupid enough to make such a big move.

Qing Ran must also know that he can't deceive Yue Yaomo.

But it would be enough to let his experience spread out a little.

And at this time, he was constantly approaching Yue Yaomo's sword.

When he was very close to the sword.

When Qing Ran felt that this sword was already within reach.

Qing Ran flew deep, his arms forward, and threw himself at the sword.

???? However, when people make mistakes, it is often ...... this last step.

This sword, which seemed to be in the bag, flew into the sky in a daze.

Qing Ran looked up at the sword blankly, but Yue Yaomo was already standing beside him.

Reaching out and drawing a sword finger against the back of his neck.

"Did your sword really fly on its own?"

Qing Ran stiffly turned his neck and asked.

"Do you believe that my sword has spirituality?"

Yue Yaomo said with a smile.

"It's all a storyteller's story. When I was a child, my dad lied to me that the spittoon under the bed was spiritual!"

Qing Ran said disappreciatively.

But Yue Yaomo was extremely serious.

That look wasn't what a joke should be.

Maybe some people just like to talk nonsense.

But Yue Yaomo is a real serious, and there is no nonsense.

????“ This sword is not a famous sword. But he killed many famous people with famous swords. It has not changed hands in my hands for fifteen years. Probably because of this, he later became famous. If you don't count you, there are three hundred and two people who have liked it and want to get it. ”

Yue Yaomo said.

"But this sword is still in your hand, and the fate of those three hundred and two can be imagined. ”

Qing Ran said.

"No, only three hundred and one people died under this sword. ”

Yue Yaomo shook his head and said.

Qing Ran frowned......

If there is still one person who does not die, either the sword stealing has succeeded, or the perseverance is still trying.

But no matter what the situation is, it is not in line with what is happening in front of you.

"What's wrong with another person?"

Qing Ran asked.

"There's another guy who is my father. He's not a martial artist, but he's very fond of my sword. But he died of tuberculosis, not by my sword!"

Yue Yaomo said with a laugh.

Now it's a complete joke.

His own Lao Tzu likes his son's sword, which is a natural thing.

If the son draws his sword and kills Lao Tzu, then he can't afford the word morality.

Yue Yaomo looked at Qing Ran's expression from stunned to natural, and then relaxed to laugh like himself, and felt very satisfied.

This story he has used countless times.

It's the same effect every time.

The first half is ruthless, but the second half is unexpected.

"It turns out that Brother Yue took me!"

Qing Ran said after laughing.

"I didn't mean to tease Brother Qing...... It's just that every time I tell this story, everyone's reaction is the same, and it makes me bored......"

Yue Yaomo said.

He was obviously smiling happily just now, but now he said it was boring.

It's amazing that a person can laugh so heartily when he's bored!

"Isn't there an exception?"

Qing Ran asked.

The world is big, and the sea of people is vast.

How can all living beings be exactly the same?

If it's really like Yue Yaomo said, it must be because he hasn't met enough people.

"There are personal exceptions. But I'm not sure if she heard it at the time!"

Qing Ran's question actually made Yue Yaomo touch the slag on his chin and groaned.

These days have been dusty, and I haven't cleaned up on time.

But the stubble has grown a little longer.

However, Yue Yaomo relied on this feeling of being prickly and scratchy to the touch......

So much so that now, if you want to think about something, you must touch your own scum.

"Who is it?"

Qing Ran asked.

"Don't mention it, just a fellow traveler. But it should also be a Hongzhou Chinese. ”

Yue Yaomo waved his hand and said.

"I don't dare to say that I know all of them, but I also know at least nine out of ten. Can you describe one or two brothers-in-law?"

Qing Ran asked.

Yue Yaomo didn't cover it either.

generously described Xiao Zhong's appearance and figure.

"Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a beautiful woman, an affair, a peach blossom affair!"

Qing Ran said with a smile after hearing this.

At that time, he didn't know Xiao Zhong.

But this figure is firmly in my heart.

After all, a female character that could make Yue Yaomo miss it so much made him very curious.

This is also why when Xiao Zhong's blocked the street later, Qing Ran was willing to dismount.

It is precisely because of Xiao Zhong's appearance and figure that it is very consistent with what Yue Yaomo described.

It's just that he didn't break it immediately.

Instead, he said a word of emotion, feeling that Xiao Zhong's is very special.?

???? After Qing Ran finished talking to Yue Yaomo, he returned to Qingquan.

"I have instructed the people of Qingfu to prepare some wine and food and send them here. Today you and I might as well drink together in this woods, by the spring, and tell me the story of the south by the way!"

Qing Ran said.

"This is excellent! I also want to hear what is the difference between this Zhenbei Realm and our south! But I came here just to compete with swords, and if I just drink some wine, it will send me away......"

Yue Yaomo said.

Qing Ran heard his words.

Although Fang Cai failed to steal the sword himself.

But that's just a game, after all......

It's not a real skill.

Yue Yaomo still wanted to intersect with swords, and crossed hands with Qing Ran a few times.

"Since Brother Yue has spoken, then the Lord is at will! I also happen to learn how elegant and agile this southern swordsmanship is!"

Qing Ran said.

"As long as it is swordsmanship, it must be more elegant and agile than the sword moves that open and close. But my sword is different. ”

Yue Yaomo said with a smile, but he sold it.

"Oh, what's the difference?"

Qing Ran asked.

"My sword is eternal!"

Yue Yaomo said.

With that, he jumped forward, stepped back three feet away, and pulled out the sword inserted in the soil.

Qing Ran is still pondering the meaning of eternity.

This is a literati's word, which is used to allow the thoughts and feelings expressed in this literary or artistic form to be deep and far-reaching, profound and fascinating.

It's like the lingering sound, which lasts for three days.

It seems to have endless words and endless meanings.

But how can it be used to describe the sword in his hand?

In fact, this timelessness and ethereal spirit are like tea and wine.

Tasting tea, the more you taste, the more indifferent your mind is.

The more you drink, the more intense you become.

Although there is tea in the north, it is generally called eating tea.

Just by changing a word, this hard thing has changed......

Tasting tea is different from eating tea.

Most of the tea and eating methods of tea eaters are very crude and simple.

Not only does it not pay attention to the environment, but it is more just to quench your thirst.

Tea tasters in the south, in addition to the necessary tea leaves and tea utensils, also have extremely strict requirements for this environmental atmosphere. If it is not in an elegant and chic teahouse, it is also in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, or in the quiet forest with clear springs and flowing stones.

The most taboo thing is to use this leftovers, the remnants of the sun, and the remnants of mountains and water......

When everything on the outside meets the requirements, the tea soup slowly flows into the mouth, gradually seeping into the heart and lungs.

You will feel so good at heart and mind.

No matter how impatient people are, most of them can calm down.

Whether it is commenting on the mundane things of the world, or talking about the masters of the family and the country, this interest will only become more and more intense.

This is what Yue Yaomo called "eternal." ”

His sword is like this, like tasting tea.

Drinking, on the other hand, is a harsh environment that does not involve any complicated processes and harsh environments.

It's a very casual thing.

Even if they are like Qing Ran, most of them are just grabbing their cups, drinking them all and then pouring them full, sucking the sea and drooping rainbows, and the more they drink, the more they drink, the more rapid they become.

Even the emotions of the whole person gradually became high.

No one can avoid high-spirited guidance!

However, the resulting quarrels, gambling fights, etc. are also common in the north.

But the drinker is often able to justify himself.

Bo Gulou once thought that the sages, once said: "The ancient sages are all silent, only the drinker leaves his name." ”

But the Tongjin Pavilion in the south also has a corresponding sentence.

This "Pan Flower invites guests to sit, and drinks on behalf of Qingyan." "It is written that tea is used instead of wine to serve guests.

Therefore, this wine is a sensual thing, and after people drink it, they often trigger some kind of state beyond the norm.

It's like the knife in Qingran's hand and Qingfu's "Shadow Cutting Knife".

But there is always a bit of comprehension that you can't practice and can't learn.

It must be at the time of these two people's confrontation to achieve the full merit.

In this way, it is the elegant and agile knife that is Qingran.

Both of them held their own knives and swords in their hands.

The air seemed to be starting to condense.

The wind has stopped...... Even the nearby leaves seemed to stop shaking.

The sound of a dead branch breaking and falling to the ground like before, but it will never appear again.

As the temperature in the forest decreased, the fog gradually rose.

Immediately after, the two jumped up at the same time,

There have been more than ten rounds of fighting between the lightning and flint......

The urgency of the sword shuttle, but it is beyond the limit of eyesight!

Yue Yaomo smiled slightly.

Obviously, Qing Ran's martial arts cultivation and sword skills were beyond his expectations!

At this moment, he is becoming more and more serious.

Qing Ran only felt a fierce sword aura attack.

But he couldn't tell whether it was Yue Yaomo who attacked and killed with a sword, or whether this sword was pulling Yue Yaomo!

Could it be that the sword in his hand is really spiritual?

If it were someone else, he might have died in this hesitation.

But Qing Ran dodged it.

His knife is really as strange as a drunken man.

Ordinary knife techniques, in his hands, can also change with the help of the situation in his hands.

In an instant, the green sword qi became as hard as steel, but the blade was as soft as the ...... of the newly plowed land during spring sowing.

"I didn't expect Brother Qing's sword technique to be able to do it so casually, and his god form has changed!"

Yue Yaomo said with admiration.

Now he doesn't understand why Qingran's reputation in Hongzhou is far inferior to Li Zhenghui.

"Brother Yue's swordsmanship is also really good...... Among the sword cultivators who fought with me, they really came to be the first!"

Qing Ran said.

Then his figure flashed.

A knife from east to west.

flocked to Yue Yaomo like a mountain and a sea!

??? But Yue Yaomo's sword not only has spirituality, but also timelessness!

He even closed his eyes for a moment.

Just listening to the whirring knife wind in your ears can accurately avoid blocking.

The battle was destined to be fruitless.

But when Yue Yaomo said goodbye to Qing Ran, he said that he must go to find that special girl.

took the words that were used to tease Qing Ran before, and then talked to her one by one.

Let's see what she looks like and how she reacts if she listens carefully.

——————

"Yes, I am indeed your wife. ”

Xiao Zhong regained his composure, and his tone calmed down.

"But as a man, you don't even feel a little sour in your heart?"

Xiao Zhong continued.

But he openly ridiculed Qing Ran.

"Sour, presumably with my Qingfu who has been cultivating knives in the mountains for so many years for my ancestors, what qualifications do I have to feel sour?"

Qing Ran's voice came slowly.

"So you're just taking care of the face of this Qingfu. ”

Xiao Zhong said with a sneer.

"Don't you want this kind of decency?"

Qing Ran said.

That's it.

Neither side needs to continue to be polite.

is so frank and completely tears his face, and he may be able to get a happy relief.

The real reason for this relief is that the two of them have had a radical change in their attitudes towards each other.

In fact, these two people's outlook on life is fundamentally different.

It's just that each has its own purpose, and it has been hard enough for so many years......

After making it clear, it was even simpler.

The blockage in their hearts has been liberated, but it has taken so many years for Qing Ran and Xiao Zhong to dare to face their true feelings again.

The wind comes to thin the bamboo, and the wind passes and the bamboo does not leave a sound.

The geese spend the cold pool, and the geese go and the pond does not exist.

Things come to the heart, and things go to the heart.

In order to survive, people often do things that they can't help themselves......

That Qingfu ancestor forgot to practice the knife, and Xiao Zhong's spare no effort to leave his home, which is a general truth.

Some people choose to live as a freehand landscape painting.

There is reality and fiction between the dripping and hearty.

However, most of them end up as painters......

This process is not only complicated, but also painful.

Freehand uses the most simple lines to express in addition to the high-level artistic conception, but if there is no actual support, this kind of artistic conception will only make people miserable......

Xiao Zhong and Qing Ran also yearn for such a heroic and magnificent life course as "life is fleeting within a hundred years, and it must be hearty and eternal".

However, the mission they are carrying restricts their freedom to pursue this realm.

"Beneath the decency, the filth is infinite. ”

Xiao Zhong said.

"The same goes for you!"

After Qing Ran's words came.

And the lights of his house were extinguished......

Xiao Zhong smiled slightly, and walked briskly towards his residence.

Now, as long as she maintains the dignity of the surface, there is nothing she can't do and dare not do......

The feeling of being able to let go of your hands and feet is much more comfortable than when you were walking on thin ice before!
