Gaiden: The Love of the Sword (22)

ps: The explosion attempt failed, and I didn't take out the time code word today...... Come back tomorrow, I feel that there are more emotional scenes in these chapters, but I am afraid that the foreshadowing will not be in place, which will lead to abrupt changes in the emotions of the characters, so I am quite entangled.

Although they are in the black prison and do not see the light of day, but accompanied by their favorite people, Mu Zixuan and Ning Youyou are both willing, because of the burden in their hearts, Ning Youyou, who is already talkative, is ten times more talkative than in the past, and tells his background, experience, and even the grievances he has suffered, and the interesting things he has experienced in detail, as if he wants to make up for the debt to Mu Zixuan in this way.

At the beginning, Mu Zixuan and her were still able to talk to each other, but after talking for a long time, one talked dryly, and their own daily life was to practice swords under the constraints of Gu Jiansheng, monotonously repetitive, and good and good. Later, it became Ning Youyou who kept talking, and Mu Zixuan caressed her head dotingly through the railing, and listened to her quietly.

After talking happily for a while, Ning Youyou realized that Mu Zixuan hadn't interjected for a long time, and stuck out his tongue and said, "Brother Xuan, do you think that I can't finish talking, good words?"

Mu Zixuan quipped: "It's okay, I'm mentally prepared, after all, you are a genius who can play two roles and talk to yourself!"

Ning Youyou pinched his waist in protest, and said: "Actually, I don't talk so much, I have talked so much with my little cousin before, and after my little cousin is gone, I have never had anyone to speak, and I have held all the words in my stomach." ”

"How did you die?"

Ning Youyou said annoyedly: "You just died, my cousin is only ten years old this year, she is obedient and listens, super cute, she seems to understand what she says, and her mouth is tight, so I love to tell her anything." For example, the last time I put Uncle Ze's counting sign up and put it under his cushion, so that Uncle Ze didn't get out of bed for three days, I shared it with her. ”

"Don't use your cousin as a tree hole! it will bring bad children!" Mu Zixuan couldn't stop wanting to shout, but he resisted his impulse and asked, "Then where is your cousin now?"

Ning Youyou's voice sank, and he said gloomily: "Uncle ...... After that incident, I was also injured, and I passed away before my mother, and my cousin was also taken back to her mother's house to learn the 'water control technique' and waited...... Wait, revenge. ”

Although neither of them wanted to mention it again, but they still couldn't get around this topic, they were silent for a long time, Ning Youyou held Mu Zixuan's hand, and said firmly: "Brother Xuan, I want to be the most free woman in the world, eat what I want to eat, do what I want to do, love and love people, what sectarian entanglements, past love and hatred, just thinking about it makes me feel so annoying, it doesn't matter if I am indifferent and ruthless, ungrateful, anyway, this girl should not be bound by these things that have nothing to do with me! You don't care about them anymore, okay?"

Mu Zixuan clasped her hand and said with a smile: "Of course, you alone are enough for me to ponder for a lifetime, how can I still have the mind to share it in those idle things!"

"Tsk, say you're stupid, sometimes you talk better than anyone else. Ning Youyou snorted and lowered his head, although in the dark, Mu Zixuan seemed to be able to still see her cheeks stained with red clouds, and felt itchy in his heart, and wanted to have a warm relationship with her again, but when he heard a 'bang', the door opened, the sunlight shone into the dark cell, and the figure coming in the backlight was eternal, Xiao Shuxuan raised, a sword hung on his waist, and the sunlight on his body made him seem to have a faint brilliance, and the person who came was Gu Jiansheng.

When Gu Jiansheng entered, he saw Mu Zixuan's face was red and his ears were red, his clothes were untidy, Ning Youyou's temples were messy, and the spring tide had not faded, all of them were generally hot, and he immediately felt unhappy, snorted coldly, and said to Mu Zixuan: "You, come out!"

Mu Zixuan was caught by the master, and it was inevitable that he was timid, so he shrunk his neck and said, "The disciple was punished and confined and didn't dare to come out." ”

"It's reluctant!" Gu Jiansheng raised his eyebrows, and then a sword qi was born, cutting the iron chain that locked the cell door like tofu, and urged: "Don't hurry up yet!"

Mu Zixuan pinched Ning Youyou's palm, signaled her to rest assured, and went out with Gu Jiansheng, saying as he walked: "Master, you are robbing a prison......

Gu Jiansheng glanced at him and said, "I have already told the head about this, and the head agreed to let you out." ”

"Then you still cut off the lock directly, and it's not that you don't have a key......" Mu Zixuan whispered, halfway through his words, seeing that Gu Jiansheng's face was getting more and more gloomy, although it was possible that another sword qi would come to him, he swallowed his mouth and swallowed the rest of the words.

"Tomorrow there will be a sword duel between me and Senior Brother Qingyue, watching from the sidelines should be of great benefit to you, and you should not be absent. Therefore change your punishment of three days' imprisonment to thirty strokes, and after tomorrow you will go and receive it. ”

"That's really thank you Master...... Mu Zixuan was speechless, and said with a bitter face: "That Master, I'm going to be beaten anyway, so it's better for me to take Youyou...... Take Miss Ning's guilt together, beat me a few more times, and let her out. ”

Gu Jiansheng glanced at him coldly, and said: "Self-retribution, the rules of the Lingxiao Sword Sect are not child's play, besides, trespassing into the important place of the Jing Pavilion, no matter which sect is a taboo, if it is folded into a whip, you can't afford it!"

Mu Zixuan listened to what he said seriously, and said: "No, she didn't steal anything, and besides, the Taiyi Xuanjing is not our sect's ......."

"Nonsense!" Gu Jiansheng reprimanded: "Do you know how much trouble she almost broke through, that book may contain a method of infanticide and luck, how can it be spread in the world, reading that she is young and ignorant, and does not know the benefits, it has given her enough tolerance, but the punishment she should have must be less." ”

"What are you going to do with her?"

"If according to the rules of the rivers and lakes, those who trespass on the forbidden land of other factions will be killed on the spot, or they will be abolished at the worst, and they will have nothing to complain about, Ling Xiao Sword Sect has no intention of harshly criticizing her, but it should be imprisoned for three or five years!"

"Three or five years, according to her temperament, she will go crazy after being locked up for three or five days! Master, can you ask the master for mercy again. Mu Zixuan said earnestly.

In fact, Gu Jiansheng had already done this, according to his point of view, one disdained to worry about this little girl, and the other wished that this girl was as far away from Mu Zixuan as possible, so the punishment advocated was to expel her, and she was not allowed to step within a radius of ten miles from the Lingxiao Sword Sect. But such a dispensable punishment plan could not convince the other elders, so it was completely useless. At this time, he was silent with a cold face.

When Mu Zixuan saw his expression, his heart was cold, and he paused and said, "Master, she is afraid of the dark, I'll go and send a lamp to her, and then say goodbye......"

Gu Jiansheng glanced at it coldly, but seeing Mu Zixuan's stubborn gaze, he didn't back down at all, and finally waved his hand and said, "Go, I'll wait for you in front, don't delay too long!"

When Mu Zixuan's figure disappeared from the field of vision, Gu Jiansheng's expression was soothing, but he couldn't help but let out a long sigh, even though the 'unbearable' on his waist was one of the few famous blades in the world, but this love was entangled, how to cut it off.

Mu Zixuan re-entered the cell, with a full oil lamp in his hand, Ning Youyou, who was shrinking in the corner, saw the light and hurriedly stepped forward, the speed was so fast that even Mu Zixuan couldn't help but praise: "When you see the light, you pounce, you are a moth?"

"Go!" Ning Youyou glanced at him, took the lamp and said, "What did you tell your master?"

"Two news, one good and one bad, which one do you listen to first?"

"Bad."

"According to the door rules, this incident will probably lock you up for three or five years. ”

Ning Youyou pouted, "Three or five years, it's better to kill me, so what's the good news?"

"I'm going to elope with you. Mu Zixuan said indifferently.

Ning Youyou's hand that was carefully guarding the lamp trembled suddenly, and he didn't realize that the hot oil lamp was splashing on his hand, "You, what did you say?"

Mu Zixuan wrote lightly: "Don't make a fuss, didn't I tell you earlier, we are so entangled in love and hatred, it's a pity not to elope." ”

"Hu ...... What nonsense!" Ning Youyou's face was red, he couldn't tell whether he was ashamed or happy, and put the oil lamp on the ground, "You are a sword crown disciple, and your future is immeasurable, but with me, you will destroy your future, you ...... You're really willing to ......."

Mu Zixuan grabbed his hair to hide his inner entanglement, "If you want to say that you are willing, you really can't say it, after all, the master has been cultivated for many years, and there is a master for him...... Although the master is stricter, I know that he treats me very well, but if this happens, the master will definitely not be able to tolerate you, and he will not be able to tolerate you, so he will not be able to tolerate me, so he is reluctant, and he has to go out and hide for three or five years first. ”

Ning Youyou's heart was warm, and he turned his head unfrankly and said, "Hmph, as long as you are willing, I ...... Whatever you ...... Wouldn't it be too dangerous, though?"

Mu Zixuan said: "Tomorrow is the succession ceremony, it is a godsend, my master and Uncle Qingyue will have a sword duel, and then the sect's defense will be relaxed, I will take advantage of that time to rescue you, but first say good, if someone obstructs you, you will leave by yourself, don't care about me!"

Ning Youyou hurriedly protested: "Leave you behind, how can I do it, I am against it?"

"No matter how much trouble I make, there is still a master on top of it, you are different, if you are arrested again, I am afraid that there will be no chance to save you again!"

Ning Youyou's head shook into a wave drum: "No matter, opposition is opposition, otherwise let's raise our hands to vote, and the minority obeys the majority!"

"Just the two of us, what are you doing?" Mu Zixuan couldn't keep up with her thinking

"I'm against it. Ning Youyou changed to a quiet voice and raised his left hand.

"I'm against it too. Ning Youyou changed back to the original tone and raised his right hand. "Oh, you and I are both opposed, the minority obeys the majority, you have to listen to us!"

"Can you be serious, pretending to be a soul breaker!" Mu Zixuan couldn't help but want to twist her hair with her fist, and took a long breath to suppress this impulse, "Otherwise, don't you love to act according to the hexagram, throw a few copper coins to look at the hexagram, and you will naturally know how to do it." ”

"This method is not bad!" Ning Youyou responded, secretly thinking in her heart that with her understanding of Yi Li, how to explain after throwing the hexagram, all with her mouth and two lips, but as soon as the copper coin landed, her complexion changed.

"Shang Qian and Xia Gen, this is a 'escape' hexagram, it seems that you don't need to interpret the hexagram!" Mu Zixuan said with a smile.

There are mountains in the world, the mountains are high and the sky retreats, the mountains are approaching the sky, and the sky retreats step by step. Yin and yang disappear, the villain gains power, the gentleman retreats, Mingzhe protects himself, waiting for the opportunity to save the world, this is the hexagram solution, the answer is given from the name of the hexagram, and the space for Ning Youyou's distortion is not given at all, and Ning Youyou is angry and kicks the copper coins on the ground away. "No, no, no, this time it's not accurate. ”

Mu Zixuan coaxed: "Okay, don't be a little temperant, this time I will still act according to your hexagram, I have talked for a long time, I should also leave......"

Ning Youyou sat down with his knees folded with a stupid face, looking at the light and ignoring him.

Mu Zixuan rubbed her head and said, "Okay, don't be petty, before the lamp oil is dry, I will definitely take you out of this ghost place." With that, he got up and left.

"Brother Xuan!" Ning Youyou couldn't help but stop him, biting his lip and asking with concern: "You...... Be careful!"

"Yes!" Mu Zixuan nodded and closed the cell door.

There was only the big light of the bean seedlings left in the prison, but Ning Youyou tilted her head with her knees hugged, looking at the flickering lights with a happy face, and laughed from time to time, and she didn't know what she was happy about.

An oil lamp is enough to dispel the darkness.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A day later, it was the day of the sword duel, Gu Jiansheng got up early as usual, and when he walked into the hall, he already smelled a pungent fragrance, but he saw Mu Zixuan carrying a porcelain cup from the outside and inside. He said, "Master, it's just the right time, sit down." ”

"What are you doing?"

Mu Zixuan had to open the lid like a show-off, and the steaming water vapor was mixed with a unique aroma, "Today is the day of your sword trick with Master Qingyue, I specially asked the kitchen to cook ginseng soup for you, and simmered it all night, which can replenish your vitality, you come and taste it." "The ginseng soup is boiled out of the juice, thick as honey, and decorated with bright red dates in a white porcelain bowl, which is full of color, flavor and flavor.

"With this time and thought, it is better to put it on the way of the sword. Gu Jiansheng looked disdainful, but he still sat down, and let Mu Zixuan give him a bowl of ginseng soup in a small bowl.

If it was in the past, Mu Zixuan would have been unhappy when he heard this, but today is completely different.

Mu Zixuan secretly looked at the person in front of him, his waist was still straight, his eyes were still sharp, but his temples had been dyed with frost, and the corners of his eyes were wrinkled. Thinking that he was going to say goodbye today, so that the hard work that Shizun had poured into him for many years was in vain, Mu Zixuan couldn't help but feel guilty, and sighed: "Shizun Kendo is a god, no matter how much time I spend and think about it, it will be difficult for you in the end, maybe the person who inherits your kendo is destined not to be my ......"

Gu Jiansheng blew the soup in the spoon and said: "I am arrogant and impetuous on weekdays, why am I starting to be arrogant and self-conscious again, I have a rare sword duel with your Qingyue master, with your qualifications, if you can watch the battle calmly today, it will definitely be of great benefit to you." ”

Mu Zixuan bowed his head and said: "The master has won the award, I am afraid that today, the apprentice will still disappoint the master......"

"You really still can't calm down, just because of that woman in the Emperor Xingtian?"

|“ Master, Yoyo's nature is not evil, and he only wanted to fulfill his mother's last wish when he stole books before......"

When Gu Jiansheng didn't want his apprentice to know too much about the Emperor Xingtian, he interrupted: "That's enough, what is her nature, I don't have the intention to ask, after today, I will discuss with Senior Brother Qingyue again, and strive to be lenient with her." ”

"Master, are you willing to help?" Mu Zixuan's face was happy, but Gu Jiansheng's next sentence made his face freeze with joy.

"But as a price, you are not allowed to contact her again in the future, otherwise-" Gu Jiansheng put the empty bowl on the table and made a "pop" sound.

"See you next time, maybe I can't restrain myself and kill her!" (To be continued.) )
