In the hazy night, the lamp was particularly conspicuous, and the light overflowed through the half-hidden windows, blending with the gray moonlight, reflecting the small and delicate house.

Under the eaves, there is a wind chime, and a corner of goose yellow clothing is tied on it. When there was no wind, it stayed there quietly, adding a bit of silence to the night.

Jiang Ming knocked lightly on the door, and after getting a response from the people inside, he slowly walked in, the room was clean and tidy, vaguely filled with the dark fragrance unique to women.

"What's the matter with me?"

"Miss Yu asked me to return my clothes to you. ”

Jiang Ming glanced at the senior sister sitting at the table and sat opposite her casually.

Li Mengru glanced at the clothes in Jiang Ming's hand, stretched out her hand, and looked slightly dissatisfied, "Borrow clothes to find you, return clothes and look for you, what, you can do whatever she asks you to do?"

The candle flame danced slightly, reflecting her plain hands, as if transparent, dyed red.

At this time, Jiang Ming's mind suddenly appeared with the beautiful smile of that cold woman, and he was instantly speechless, just handed over the neatly folded clothes.

After Li Mengru took it, she casually threw it aside, stared at the faint candle flame in the middle of the table, and said softly: "Senior brother, the selection will be over tomorrow." ”

Jiang Ming responded: "Yes." ”

Li Mengru absentmindedly lay on the table and looked at the light, the candle flame was reflected in her smart and bright eyes, and even her pretty face looked slightly red.

"Senior sister, are you sure tomorrow?"

"What?"

Looking at the senior sister who was asking knowingly, Jiang Ming suddenly felt a sense of weakness, although he knew the character of the senior sister, he still couldn't help but say: "You must be careful in tomorrow's competition." ”

"Why, do you think I'm not Yue Bufan's opponent?"

Seeing his senior sister staring at him with disgust, Jiang Ming was a little uncomfortable, hurriedly shook his hand, and said, "No, no, I'm just afraid of you...... Wounded. ”

Jiang Ming originally wanted to cheer up his senior sister, but as he spoke, he remembered the blood-red figure who was kicked away by Yue Bufan, and his voice gradually deepened, expressing the worry in his heart.

"Don't you still think I can't beat him!" Li Mengru, who was lying on the table, suddenly straightened up, her face was pale, and she stared at Jiang Ming seriously.

She seemed to be a little angry, but when she saw Jiang Ming's embarrassed and embarrassed look, she suddenly felt that it was nothing, "I'm afraid I'll be hurt, are you worried about me?"

Her tone seemed to have a hint of sincerity and a bit of playfulness, and Jiang Ming unconsciously became nervous.

"Actually, it's nothing. Li Mengru slowly shifted her gaze, looked at the blurry light again, was silent for a long time, and suddenly said faintly: "Isn't there still you if I lose?" ”

What she said was not so much to Jiang Ming, but to her heart.

It was the first time Jiang Ming saw such a gloomy senior sister, her voice was so fluctuating, as if she was comforting herself, but Jiang Ming really felt her loss and anxiety.

I still remember that day in the library, curled up in a ball, tears still stained Lingxiu woman, it turned out that she seemed to be strong and fearless, but she would also have that moment of loneliness and helplessness.

"Senior sister, if you can't choose, I won't go!"

Li Mengru was obviously stunned for a moment, and then burst out laughing, this smile was really like a willow tip on the moon, bending the branches.

Looking at her inexplicable smile, Jiang Ming suddenly felt that he was making himself amorous, his face burned, and he was speechless, but her next words made Jiang Ming like a lightning strike.

"I don't want to leave you. ”

The moonlight poured in through the half-hidden window like water, like the gentle eyes of the beautiful woman in front of him, tightly embracing him, and for a while there was a feeling that there was nowhere to escape.

With the dancing of the candle flame, the two figures reflected on the wall are also erratic.

The courtyard is clear and silent.

At some point, he opened his arms to her, hugging her tightly.

............

The sun was rising, and Jiang Ming, who felt the soft light, slowly opened his eyes, but his face couldn't hide the fatigue.

Since that deep embrace, he seems to have lost his soul, and he can't even remember how he came back, only remembering that he couldn't sleep last night, and he didn't vaguely sleep until the dim light came out of the window.

"Uhhhh......hh

A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he suddenly felt that he was not so sleepy, so he got up hastily, dressed and washed.

In the early morning, the air was mixed with a slight amount of water vapor, and after all the chores were dealt with, Jiang Ming walked to the courtyard with the Qianchen Immortal Sword, ready to start his daily homework, and hit the Yuqing Sword every morning and evening, in the face of the master's teachings, he naturally did not dare to slack off.

He took a deep breath, the feeling of coolness and wetness slowed into his spleen and lungs, and the restless heart seemed to calm down, he pulled out the fairy sword, and his body moved, compared to last night's absent-mindedness, this time he kept his energy focused, and he was also much more energetic in one move.

This door swordsmanship really has its subtlety, his movements are careless, the momentum is long, and he unconsciously forgets everything around him, as if only he and the sword in his hand swim slowly between heaven and earth.

After Jiang Ming finished playing a set of Yuqing swordsmanship, the clothes on his body were already slightly soaked by the unsubsided cold dew, and he let out a long breath of turbidity, and suddenly felt refreshed, and his body and mind were comfortable.

Jiang Ming put away the front dust sword and walked along the bluestone path, for some reason, the heart that had calmed down just now was faintly beating at this moment, and the closer to the heart cultivation hall, the stronger the heartbeat.

In this way, he was in a complicated mood, as if he stepped into the temple with five points of expectation, three points of joy and two points of timidity.

At that moment, he had already thought of thousands of meeting scenes in his mind, and even the woman's shy look was outlined.

She's not there......

The senior sister, who is usually used to getting up early, has not yet come, and only the master Li Changfeng and Miss Yu are chatting quietly in the huge room, and the senior sister is making breakfast in the kitchen at the moment.

Jiang Ming's heart suddenly relaxed, but a trace of loss quietly swelled up.

After a while, when Chen Zhiyi prepared the meal, Li Mengru came in sleepily, and the energetic woman was a little more quiet at the moment. The two looked at each other inadvertently, and the docking for a moment was tacitly moved. And the thousands of ups and downs in Jiang Ming's mind before also dissipated into a faint sweetness in his heart.

Neither of them could come to their senses, as if they had sunk into the moonlight, just as they had been on the night they had embraced each other.

Everyone at the dinner table saw that Jiang Ming and Li Mengru were silent, thinking that it was the reason why today's competition was crucial, so they didn't ask in detail, and some were just everyone's repeated advice and hope in their eyes.

The breakfast was light and fast. In such an uneventful early morning, everyone walked loosely towards the martial arts training ground.

As far as the eye can see, there is only one bluestone ring left in the huge venue, and the other three temporary rings must have been demolished. At this moment, the crowd is crowded, everyone is emotional, and today is the final decisive moment!

Jiang Ming was in a trance, when he suddenly felt a gentle tap on his shoulder, he suddenly felt uneasy in his heart, and turned to look.

"Senior Brother Jiang, why are you so nervous. ”

What caught his eyes were two smiling faces, Jiang Ming was surprised: "Senior Brother Zhu, Senior Brother Ye!" Then he seemed to remember something, and his eyes dimmed slightly.

Zhu Zhiwang noticed his abnormality, straightened up, looked serious, and comforted: "Senior brother, don't be too nervous about the competition, relax a little, senior brother believes in you." ”

"Thank you, brother. ”

Although Jiang Ming's mind was not on the game, in the face of other people's kindness, a warmth also rose in his heart.

"Why did you suddenly become so powerful?" At this time, the thin and tall Ye Hou on the side also leaned a little closer, squeezing his eyes, with a strange look, "You don't know, you have now become a celebrity in our villa." ”

Jiang Ming suddenly remembered the fight with him that day, he was not an opponent at all, but today he was able to come to this point, like a dream, he unconsciously clenched the sword in his hand a little tighter, and the feeling of warmth suddenly spread throughout his body, and said astringently: "Senior brother, don't be joking, it's all my luck." ”

"Fight hard, we'll cheer you on!" Zhu Zhiwang patted Jiang Ming quite hard, contrary to his usual indecent look, with a little sincerity.

In this way, Jiang Ming chatted for a while, and only returned to the crowd when the game was about to start.

In the huge venue, there is now only a platform standing quietly, surrounded by a circle of people. Wang Qingshan, Yu Chenshuang and the four elders were all present, sitting at the front of the ring, and it seemed that they were attaching great importance to the next game.

"This time, Yue Bufan is against Li Mengru!"

With Wang Qingshan's shout, a dashing figure in white flew up to the high platform, but there was a burst of discussion and buzzing below.

At this time, Jiang Ming looked at the back standing quietly in front of him, his heart was mixed, he hesitated for a long time, and finally mustered up the courage and shouted, "Senior sister!"

The blue sky is like blue, and the sun is light and warm.

The eyes of the two passed through the alienated crowd, facing each other from a distance, but they were speechless for a moment.

"That....... You have to be careful. ”

The joy on Li Mengru's face when she just turned her head suddenly turned into disdain, she glanced at Jiang Ming, and then her delicate body moved, like a fairy among flowers, and landed steadily in the ring.

Seeing that it was a woman who had entered the top four, and that she was beautiful and beautiful, the disciples under the stage applauded thunderously and shouted happily.

This scene is very different from Yue Bufan, Wang Qingshan, who was sitting at the front, clapped his hands twice, then glanced at Li Changfeng, and whispered: "I think this girl in your family is amazing." ”

Wang Qingshan's voice was loud and his voice was also deep, although he tried his best to keep it low, he was still listened to by Yue Zhuo on the side.

"Isn't it bad for me to be extraordinary?

Listening to Yue Zhuo's dissatisfied tone, Wang Qingshan showed embarrassment, and said with a smile: "Not bad, not bad, they are all the pillars of the villa!"

Yue Zhuo snorted coldly, didn't say anything more, and squinted his eyes to look at the ring.
