Volume 2: Jiangnan Spring Chapter 126, the first crossing of Qiantang

Tian Zhiyu watched Meng He walk to the river, and saw that he seemed to be on a flat boat, but as if he hadn't gotten on anything, and floated away on the river with only his feet.

"The vastness is like Feng Xu's wind, but he doesn't know where it stops;

This sentence is said to be a master like Meng He.

Tian Zhiyu remembered that when Wu Lihan chatted with the old man Zhuo Buzhi, he once said that Meng He was quite a good Buddha in recent years and rarely spoke.

But he said so much to himself tonight, not at all like the style of a monk.

It seems that Brother Wu Lihan doesn't know much about his master.

He turned around and walked back, thinking about what Meng He had just said that his true qi was still in his body, but he was trapped in his flesh and blood.

How can we force the true qi out? Tian Zhiyu began to think.

Back outside the wooden house, he didn't go in, he sat in the courtyard and thought about what Meng He said just now.

After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't help but complain a little about this old man, since I know my current predicament, why don't you think of a way to help you solve it?

You are a master of the strength of the Tiger List, if you find a way, it will definitely be much easier than yourself.

However, complaining is complaining, Tian Zhiyu also knows that if he can really come up with a way, it may be of great benefit to himself, so after thinking about it for a while, he obediently returned to meditation.

Unfortunately, after a whole night passed, he still had no thoughts, and seeing that the sky was about to brighten, he simply walked to the river and admired the rolling waves under the morning light.

At this time, it was already the twilight of spring, standing on the hill by the river in the early morning, feeling the gentle and warm spring breeze, Tian Zhiyu looked far away, and saw that the opposite side of the river was also a mountain, and the mountains were also full of flowers, and there seemed to be two people practicing swords on a flat ground by the river.

Tian Zhiyu was curious.

It has been a month and a half since he arrived in Yuhang, and he only knows that there are two major sects here, the Jiangnan Sword Society and the Qianqiu Sword Society. However, he had never seen the disciples of these sects, let alone anyone practicing martial arts in public.

Although the Qiantang River is very wide, Tian Zhiyu can still clearly see the elegant and free swordsmanship of the two people.

Both of these people are masters, and they are full of spirituality between their moves and styles.

After watching for half an hour, Tian Zhiyu suddenly wanted to go over and say hello to them.

However, the river was too wide, and there were no boats on the river at this time.

Tian Zhiyu walked down the hill and touched the water in the river, which was not cold, so after thinking for a while, he decided to swim over.

I think I was also a strong swimmer in the army back then, Tian Zhiyu thought.

When a third of the swim was over, Tian Zhiyu regretted it a little.

Why is the river so rapid? And the water in the middle of the river is much cooler than on the shore.

He was hesitating to turn around and go back.

But after a few moments, he gave up on the idea, and since he had been swimming for so long, he couldn't give up.

He made up his mind and swam towards the opposite shore, hoping that the two masters on the other side would not leave before he arrived.

When he was halfway through the swim, Tian Zhiyu felt that his physical consumption had reached the limit, and there were still signs of cramps in his legs, and he seemed to have forgotten that he had just recovered from his major injury, and his physical strength had not yet recovered to half of his peak.

And the fish in the river seemed to be deliberately against him, constantly winding around him, and a few of them were constantly attacking his armpits, making him itch and want to laugh.

After swimming for a few more minutes, Tian Zhiyu felt that it was difficult to breathe, and he couldn't wait to take off his clothes to relieve some resistance.

Just when he felt that he couldn't support it, he looked up and saw that he was on the shore.

After he barely got ashore, he lay directly on the shore, gasping for breath.

When he finally recovered, he opened his eyes and saw that two people were looking down at him.

It was the two people who practiced swords just now.

One of them was sixty or seventy years old, already with white hair, and although the other was wearing a men's green shirt, Tian Zhiyu could see at a glance that this was another woman dressed as a man.

At this time, do girls like to dress up as men so much?

He couldn't help but think of the first time he saw the warm moon, and he couldn't help but have a sour nose.

When he slowly stood up, the old man smiled and said, "We saw you swimming all the way, if it weren't for the fear that you would have something wrong halfway, you would have left here at this moment." ”

Tian Zhiyu hurriedly smiled: "Thank you two for your care." ”

The man waved his hand and said, "Although the weather is warm now, the water in the river is still very cold, why do you have to cross here early in the morning? ”

Tian Zhiyu said: "I saw two people practicing swords on the other side, and I felt very curious, so I wanted to come and have a look, but I didn't expect that my physical fitness had dropped a lot, and I swam over easily, but I almost didn't hold it just now." ”

The man looked at Tian Zhiyu with an embarrassed face, and also smiled and said, "I see, that little brother, do you also use a sword?"

Tian Zhiyu nodded and said, "I used to, but I was injured once, and now I will only have some tricks." ”

The man laughed and said, "It's okay to have a show, or do you want to compare with the old man?"

Tian Zhiyu remembered that his move just now was also exquisite, and when he saw him say this, his heart was also eager to try, so he nodded and said: "As long as you don't dislike me, the juniors are willing to try it with the seniors." ”

The man said: "If you don't dislike it, if you don't dislike it, then I don't need internal force, let's only see the moves, how about it?"

Tian Zhiyu nodded.

The girl standing next to the man saw that the old man gave her a look, so she walked up to Tian Zhiyu and gave him her sword.

Tian Zhiyu took the sword and took a closer look, it was a sword with exquisite patterns and ingenious carving.

The sword body is neither light nor heavy, just right for girls.

He and the old man stood facing each other, clenched their fists at each other, and then they both made a move and exchanged hands.

Although Tian Zhiyu's internal strength was completely lost, those moves were still remembered clearly. Coupled with the old man's clever moves again and again, he was also stimulated to the highest level after a while, and the two of them were inseparable for a while.

But Tian Zhiyu knew that the old man had only exerted a small part of his skills, and he was deliberately letting himself.

When the sun was already hanging high in the sky, Tian Zhiyu became happier and happier the more he fought, although he had no internal strength and only used sword moves, he still felt hearty.

In the end, the old man shouted to stop, and when the two were separated from each other, he laughed and said, "The boy is good, the most exquisite sword move in the world is not disgraced in your hands." ”

Tian Zhiyu was still reminiscing about the fierce battle just now, and he didn't hear the meaning of the old man's words, and when he took a deep breath, he found that the clothes on his body had dried.

"Little brother, do you have a name for this sword move?"

Tian Zhiyu shook his head and said, "Not yet." ”

"You made it yourself?"

Tian Zhiyu then shook his head and said: "No, the move was given by a friend, and she said that this martial art has no name." ”

"That's a bit of a pity, it's unreasonable that such a subtle move doesn't have a name. The old man said: "But your friend is willing to give you such exquisite martial arts, and it is really good for you to think about it." ”

Tian Zhiyu remembered the time with Nuan Yue, and couldn't help but feel a little bitter, and said with a smile: "It used to be very good to me, but after we separated, there was no contact." ”

The old man smiled and put away his sword.

Tian Zhiyu also returned the sword to the girl and thanked her.

"Things can't just look at the surface, there may be more stories behind it," the old man said: "Your swordsmanship can be said to have reached a first-class level, if you have good internal strength, you will be the best one among the younger generation." ”

Tian Zhiyu smiled bitterly.

The old man ignored his expression, turned around and said, "We're going back, we'll come here tomorrow morning to practice swords, if you still want to make a comparison, you have to arrive early, but from tomorrow, I won't let you, get ready." ”

With that, he took the girl dressed as a man and left.

Tian Zhiyu thought that he hadn't asked his name yet, but just after thinking about it, he thought that he would come tomorrow anyway, so he simply didn't ask.

He turned to look at the wide Qiantang River behind him, thinking that he had to swim back, and couldn't help but feel some palpitations.

Fortunately, he persevered and swam back to the other side in one go.

When he returned to the wooden house, he saw Lu Wenshu and Feng Jingnan's surprised and happy expressions, with worry in their eyes, and smiled flatteringly like a child who had done something wrong.

"Tian Gongzi, where did you go early in the morning?" Feng Jingnan saw that he was wet, and hurriedly said, "Why are you still wet?"

Lu Wenshu didn't speak, and turned around directly to help him get clean clothes.

Tian Zhiyu told the experience of the morning, and the two daughters were surprised.

"With such a wide river, you actually swam over?" both of them complained: "Aren't you afraid of any accidents?"

Tian Zhiyu hurriedly explained, saying that he was good at swimming, and it was not a problem to swim a few back and forth.

But the two girls still didn't give up, and counted him down.

The days with two beautiful women are both leisurely and simple, writing and painting with them during the day, going to the greenhouse to see the thriving plants, and drinking a little wine when you have nothing to do.

It's just that when he was drinking with them at noon that day, Tian Zhiyu thought of the spring breeze after drinking with Lu Wenshu the night before, and couldn't help but feel a little flustered, and his eyes involuntarily looked towards Lu Wenshu.

When he looked at Lu Wenshu, he found that she was also looking at himself, and the moment his eyes met, Lu Wenshu hurriedly looked away.

This little girl is really easy to be shy.

After dinner, Feng Jingnan and the two grandmothers left, and Tian Zhiyu looked at her with a smile.

Lu Wenshu saw Tian Zhiyu's evil eyes, like a frightened white rabbit, and jumped away.

Tian Zhiyu smiled and followed her out of the house.

The two of them came to the Qiantang River, when the sunset had not completely set, and the afterglow sprinkled on the river, with golden ripples, which was beautiful.

"Li Shangyin said, the sunset is infinitely good, but it is almost dusk, too much beauty in this world is fleeting, it's really a pity," When the two of them sat on the top of the mountain, looking at the infinite beauty in front of them, Lu Wenshu leaned on Tian Zhiyu's shoulder and said with emotion.

"Yes, but what is gained is short-lived, what is lost is eternal, and the shorter it is, the more it needs to be cherished, so that is the meaning of life," Tian Zhiyu said.

Lu Wenshu nodded and said: "Indeed, if people can really live forever, they will not be able to find the meaning of existence." ”

Tian Zhiyu suddenly thought that Lu Wenshu liked articles, and just now the two of them discussed the meaning of life, and couldn't help but think of Su Shi's "Red Cliff Fu".

"Shu'er, when my master was wandering all over the world, he met a Su Dongpo, this person is also talented, but this person has a strange personality, he is unwilling to be an official, let alone interact with laypeople, and has lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests all his life. ”

"That year, my master and he traveled to Chibi together, and the two of them sang about wine, discussing history and life, short and eternal, this old Mr. Su Dongpo sighed and wrote a "Chibi Fu", I read it to you. ”

Lu Wenshu hurriedly nodded and said, "Okay, you read it quickly." ”

Tian Zhiyu took a deep breath, sorted out his thoughts, and slowly read "Chibi Fu" to her word by word.

Listening to Tian Zhiyu's slow reading, Lu Wenshu was immersed in Su Dongpo's beautiful words for a while, and when Tian Zhiyu finished reading, Lu Wenshu looked at the half-Jiang and half-Jianghong in front of him, and didn't know what to say.

When she woke up from her immersion, she said with a smile: "It's really well written, it's a pity that this Mr. Su has such talent and is willing to be incognito." Now that I think about it, I don't know how many such people in the world have such articles, and it is a great pity that they have disappeared into obscurity. ”

"Everyone has their own pursuits, some people want fame and fortune, some people just need to find their own inner peace, and people like Mr. Su, even if they have been unknown all their lives, have found refuge in their own spiritual world," Tian Zhiyu said.

Lu Wenshu nodded, and understood more and more what kind of life Tian Zhiyu wanted.

When the weather began to get cold, and when the two of them walked back, Tian Zhiyu took her hand and asked softly, "Shall we go to the divine doctor, or go to my cabin?"

Lu Wenshu didn't know what he was thinking, and said shyly: "Of course it's at the divine doctor's, you are not allowed to think nonsense." ”

Tian Zhiyu said with a smile: "It's not good for the divine doctor, if you accidentally mess up something for others, you will be angry when you come back." ”

In the dark, Lu Wenshu gave him a roll of his eyes and said, "I've lived there for so long, and I didn't say I'm sorry, let's chat obediently, don't worry about it." ”

However, when the two of them walked to the Divine Doctor's wooden house, Tian Zhiyu pulled her and walked forward, Lu Wenshu symbolically protested, and let him call the shots.
