At this moment, the narrow verandah on the fifth floor of the Hanhai Mingchen Jinlou is brightly lit, and two figures suddenly appear at the corner, it is a man and a woman, a pretty maid in a red skirt walks in front of her in small steps, a silver-haired man in a black robe and an iron sword slowly follows, and after walking seventy or eighty steps, the closed door of a huge wing room is pushed open by the pretty maid.

"Childe, please come in. The pretty maid moved to the side of the door and bowed her head to speak.

"I ...... Just walk in?" The silver-haired man was stunned, and suddenly asked, looking at the red-dressed maid who had not entered the room.

"Exactly. ”

"But......" Just as he had doubts, the pretty maid had already left briskly at the end of the corridor.

"How did this man go so fast...... I haven't even asked yet...... I haven't figured out what's going on yet...... "The silver-haired man was a little embarrassed, he was just a poet and just made a few random words, and he had no intention of competing for the first talent of the platform poetry club, but he was brought here in a daze, saying that he was fortunate to be the only guest of Cao Jiaren.

This gave him a headache, he was good at fighting or something, and he was always bad at dealing with women.

The silver-haired man had no choice but to step into the threshold and close the door gently.

Thinking that when he was led into the Jinlou by a group of beautiful maids, the literati and artists on and off the stage seemed to be murderous, he was a little frightened, it turned out that the powerless scholar could also burst out with such a murderous vision, which he had never encountered before.

This Cao Jia is by no means an ordinary woman, he thought silently in his heart.

After stepping into the wing, standing in front of you is a jade grease screen engraved with ink and blue paintings, the ink is fresh, the pen is outstanding, it is not only a famous painting, but also a famous teacher, it can be called a unique in the world.

There are half-zhang wide walkways on the left and right sides of the screen, and tall cabinets near the walls are neatly and orderly stacked with many books and poems. There are many tall vases around it, full of colorful and unknown rare flowers.

The silver-haired man stared blankly for a long time before he came back to his senses and quickly walked towards the inner room.

"Anyone?"

"Anyone?"

The silver-haired man snorted twice, looking at the surrounding decorations and displays, and further down was the boudoir of the woman's house, he who had always been unruly and unruly, was a little at a loss for what to do.

"Childe, I'm here. A gentle and crisp voice came from the cabinet, and the timbre was pleasant, like the eaves bell swaying in the twilight of the Jiangnan water town.

The silver-haired man suddenly became energetic, swallowed his saliva violently, and walked more and more slowly towards the cabinet filled with orange light.

The decoration in the cabinet is extremely elegant and elegant, and it is not as luxurious as the outer cabinet. A red apricot wood round table, several four-legged square stools, a copper horizontal stove, and an ancient long piano.

and the Cao Jiaren who sat in a Shuzhuang position.

Cao Ni sat alone at the table, holding a silk fan to half-cover his face, his eyes were smiling, and the face covered by the silk fan was so flawless.

"Next, Lu Yizhi had the honor to meet Cao Jiaren. The silver-haired man saw Cao Ni, who looked so clear and moving, and suddenly his mouth was a little dry, and he hurriedly lowered his head and raised his hand.

Don't look at indecency! Don't look at indecency! He kept saying in his heart.

"Dare to ask what Childe was watching outside just now and watched for so long?"

"I have refused to step into the cabinet. ”

Cao Ni looked at her carefully with the pair of Danfeng eyes that were as clear as water but had a bit of foxy beauty.

"Oh, I was attracted by the landscape painting carved on the jade screen in front of the door just now, and I got carried away for a while, please forgive Miss Cao. ”

"Childe likes that painting?" Cao Ni's lips and teeth twitched.

"It's not bad, I can't talk about liking it or not, it's just a whim. Lu Yizhi quickly regained his inner peace.

"Childe is such a real person. He speaks like this. The corners of Cao Ni's mouth rose slightly, and his interest in this silver-haired man of unknown origin gradually intensified.

"Childe, come and sit. Cao Ni nodded.

"That's a lot of disturbances down there. ”

Lu Yiyi approached the table with a respectful face, then took out a square stool and sat down, raised his head and looked ahead, facing the fragrance of fat powder wafting from time to time, he was obviously still greatly affected when he sat upright.

"Where is Childe from?"

"In the next, Yan Guo Chongzhou Xugu County people. ”

"Chongzhou, but the seven southern states of Yan Country are close to the Chongzhou of Axe Mountain?"

"Exactly, Miss Cao has heard of it?" Lu Yizhi's eyes lit up and he was a little happy.

"Well, when I was a teenager, I traveled with my father to the southern states, and I was fortunate to stay in Chongzhou for a month, which is a good place with four seasons like spring, a pleasant climate, and simple folk customs, living and working in peace and contentment. Cao Ni said eloquently, her eyes were very moving, recalling the happy times in the past, and her face couldn't help revealing two shallow pear vortices.

"Although Chongzhou is not as rich as the rich side of the central states of Yan Kingdom, it is better than the mild climate, and there will be no excessive climate change in the four seasons, which is very suitable for living and living. It is also a rich place surrounded by mountains and rivers. ”

"Childe is right, it's just that the little girl hasn't returned to Chongzhou for many years, and many memories in her mind have become blurred. ”

"If the girl is willing in the future, she can be a guide for Miss Cao and keep the girl having fun. Lu Yizhi blurted out.

"Hehe, yes? Then don't break your promise. Cao Ni covered her lips and smiled.

"A gentleman's word, the horse is difficult to chase, and he will never break his word. ”

The little woman was looking forward to that day. ”

After some conversation, Lu Yizhi no longer had a trace of restraint, he found that the beautiful woman in front of him was gentle and elegant, intelligent and clever, with a quiet mouth between her words, with a face that was enough to make men in the world crazy and fascinated, but without that arrogant and cold temperament, but approachable, lively, and perceptive.

"Childe should have read a lot of books, Childe has a very high literary talent, and his export is a chapter, he is a rare handsome talent in the central and southern part of Yan Kingdom!"

"It's just so-so, not a talent, but I know some poetry and writing, when I was a teenager, my family was prosperous, and I was taught and studied by the old man in the literary world for several years, and the four books and five classics or something can be regarded as a backward stream, but the door of the house fell behind, and the family died and scattered, I survived and began a solo career, crawling and rolling, it has been ten years, and I can't help but sigh. ”

After finishing speaking, Lu Yizhi's eyes were a little moist, Cao Ni noticed his expression, and just as he was about to open his mouth to comfort, the silver-haired man's eyes suddenly froze, and the gloom on his face disappeared in an instant.

The rapid change in his expression surprised Cao Ni.

"Cao Ni doesn't know, she offended the sad thing of the son for a while, I hope the son is not ......" Cao Ni's words were slight, and she was a little tentative.

"Don't get in the way, the past is scattered with the wind, and people always have to look forward. Lu Yizhi didn't dwell on this, he raised the full wine glass on the table, drank it in one gulp, and was chic and decisive.

"Cao Ni accompanies the son. Cao Ni took a drink.

"When I entered the door, I saw the sword behind Childe, this sword should look quite heavy, don't you take it off if Childe wants to drink?" Cao Ni looked at the iron sword that was bound by brown strips of cloth, she was a little curious, this silver-haired man must have attached great importance to this sword, and he refused to take it off even when he was drinking.

"This sword. Miss Cao won't tell you, this sword is the most valuable thing in my body, and it is rarely seen, but most of the people who have seen it are dead, does Miss Cao have the courage to see it?"

Cao Ni was stunned for a moment, and then smiled playfully and cutely: "Why don't you dare to look at it?"

"Well, I'll make an exception today. ”

Lu Yizhi stretched out his hand and grabbed the rusty hilt, and jerked it, the iron sword wrapped around the cloth strip broke away from the knot, his palm loosened, the iron sword flipped in the air, and the half-hidden and half-visible ancient sword body burst out with a majestic and fierce murderous aura, and he pinched the hilt of the sword again with his palm, and put the sword on the wooden board.

Suddenly, the strip of cloth was pulled, and the sword and iron that had been hidden in the darkness all day long were exposed to the dazzling lights, which was particularly eye-catching.

The sword is four feet long, the front blooms with a snow shadow, and the sword groove is concave, as thin as a waterline, like a pen carved with vermilion marks.

This sword is not an ordinary iron sword.

Name, "Red Kui"

——

Half an hour later, there was only one person left in the pavilion, and it was the graceful and graceful woman who looked like a fairy descending to Cao Ni Cao.

He stared blankly at the open window lattice, unable to come back to his senses for a long time, who was that man?

Literary brilliance, carrying an ancient sword, and a bizarre background, what secrets does he have.

The more she thought about it, the more confused she became.

A stumbling drunken figure flashed on the street outside Hanhai Mingchen Tower, the man had long silver hair, a straight face, and soft facial features, in fact, he was a little good-looking, but he was unkempt all year round, and he looked a little rough and decadent.

The man kept pouring his wine and coughing in the silent streets, losing the hustle and bustle of the day, and the empty and dark old streets became gloomy.

"Why is this wine so delicious, I should have asked Cao Ni for a few more pots just now, it's not enough to drink!"

"I haven't drunk enough, I haven't drunk enough!"

"I'm so dizzy...... Dizzy ......"

"It's time to go home, I have to say, Cao Ni is really beautiful, her temperament is good, she plays the piano is also a must, and the evocative fairy dance, how good it would be if she could be my daughter-in-law, hahahaha......" Lu Yizhi muttered to himself, the more he talked, the more he was happy, and the more he talked, the more chaotic he became.

"Hey, I've drunk too much, and the toad wants to eat swan meat...... Swan......

Approaching the intersection, he looked startled, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a figure, a wide robe fluttering in the wind.

A moment of soberness.

It seems that the people who are still wandering on the street at midnight are either people or "ghosts".

If it's a "ghost", then tonight this ancient sword is going to be unsheathed again.
