The man was hit in the left shoulder, and he snorted in pain, and the knife snowman put his right hand on the man's wrist and pushed it upward, and the man was caught off guard, and the long sword came out of his hand. The sword took the sword and threw it backwards, and the sword flew out of his hand and plunged into the old tree. When the man saw that the sword had been taken away, he panicked, stopped dwelling, and turned to flee from the place. Dao Xueke had already seen through the man's thoughts, and shouted "Hugh go!" and grabbed the man's shoulder, but he didn't expect to be in a hurry, and he didn't control the strength well, so he actually ripped off the dragon's mouth of the night-walking clothes that the man was wearing, revealing most of his shoulders. The bare shoulders were in the dark night, like fat and jade in the silver moonlight, Dao Xueke hurriedly released his palm, but the palm and fingertips still had the faint aftertaste and a trace of warmth of the fragrant shoulder, Dao Xueke only then reacted, the petite and warm shoulders should be a woman, this man in black is a woman, he was so shocked that he took half a step back, and tried to recall it in his mind, but he never thought that he had offended a girl, so that people would come to assassinate him.

The man was caught off guard by the fact that his shirt was torn off his shoulder, and he gasped in shock, hurriedly pulled up his clothes, turned his back and carefully sorted out the placket. Dao Xueke hurriedly bowed and saluted: "I really don't know below, the girl has forgiven her sins." Chu Qing'an was still a little angry at the beginning, but when he heard Dao Xueke's sincere apology, he thought that he had attacked him first, but in turn he got his apology, and his anger disappeared. After thinking about it, he couldn't let him go so easily, his daughter's body was naturally precious, and Chu Qing'an was the eldest lady of the Yiye Sword Sect who had not yet come out of the cabinet, and her shoulder was seen by a man, so it was naturally unreasonable. After tidying up his clothes, he turned around again, and collided with the eyes of the sword snowman who stood upright. Dao Xueke only felt that the eyes that were as black as paint, flickering like stars, and flowing as clear as a spring and flowing water were somewhat familiar, as if they had seen it somewhere, and the distance was as close as it was now. Although the eyes are simple and clear, they carry three points of anger, three points of coquettishness, three points of pride and the only remaining point of weakness that a woman should have.

Chu Qing'an didn't speak, he slashed straight over with one palm, since Dao Xueke knew that she was a woman, he stopped attacking, and gradually turned to the defensive, the palm wind hit, Dao Xueke was still thinking about the matter of that look, and saw that the palm was about to be split, so he turned his head sideways, Chu Qing'an fell short, and his left hand took the middle road to the lower abdomen, and Dao Xueke raised his right hand, and pushed Chu Qing'an's palm away. Dao Xueke secretly said that this girl's fist and foot kung fu is not as good as her swordsmanship, so she thought that she was fighting with her life, and her swordsmanship could still live with herself in a few moves.

Chu Qing'an naturally knew that Dao Xueke was letting her, just to defuse her moves, but she didn't take advantage of the victory to pursue, and she felt that she was being underestimated, and she was even more angry. Leaned down again to sweep out a leg, supported the ground with both hands and kicked the chest with both legs, Dao Xueke first turned around and retreated to avoid the leg, and then sealed the way of the feet with his palms, Chu Qingan was busy pulling out his feet, but Dao Xueke was in a trance, Chu Qingan took the jade foot out of the shoe, and kicked the lower abdomen while Dao Xueke was unprepared, and finally freed himself. also kicked the knife snowman back to reality.

Chu Qing'an, who was missing a left shoe, sat down on the ground and staggered to his feet, his smooth jade feet only felt a little stuck on the soles of his feet. The knife snowman was holding a shoe, staring at the small shoe, and a little distracted. Chu Qing'an saw him looking at the shoes so obsessively, ashamed and annoyed, thinking that he had been slighted by him again and again, regardless of his rudeness, he limped and staggered to Dao Xueke, snatched the shoe in his hand, and felt that he was really incomprehensible, so he slapped Dao Xueke in the face.

With a crisp slap, Dao Xueke woke up, knowing that he had somehow been rude tonight, and he felt guilty in his heart, panicked but didn't know what to do. Chu Qing'an saw that he was at a loss and looked flustered, and felt that it was really funny, although he was not a little talkative on weekdays, but between words, he felt that he was still a cautious and upright person who showed such a helpless appearance, and couldn't help laughing, this chuckle had come out, and he suddenly felt that something was wrong, so he hurriedly covered his mouth to prevent it from making another sound.

"Don't play, don't play, it's not fun at all!" Chu Qing'an really didn't want to pretend anymore, so he tore off his black veil and the black cloth turban wrapped in green silk. A long hair overflowed in an instant, the breeze caressed, the green silk was stained by the moonlight, like a silver waterfall poured on Chu Qing'an's small shoulder, and a strand of hair on the cheeks was blown by the wind and fluttered in front of his eyes, which really looked a little playful. Only then did Dao Xueke recognize it as Chu Qing'an, who only felt familiar before, but Chu Qing'an was wearing a night suit in the dark, which was indeed difficult to recognize, and the number of times the two of them met was very few.

Unconsciously, Dao Xueke stared at the fluttering green silk and stood in place. All this was also seen by Chu Qing'an, the white teeth bit the red lower lip tightly, his eyes flashed, and the two looked at each other for a long time without saying a word. After a long time, Chu Qing'an's lips opened lightly: "You disciple, when do you want to see it?" In his words, there was a bit of anger, mixed with half shyness. Dao Xueke hurriedly took another half step, bowed down and apologized, "It turned out to be Miss Chu." There are many offenses today, and it is true, it is a sin that deserves death. Seeing him like this, Chu Qing'an wanted to laugh a little, and secretly held back, but asked, "Hey, does your face still hurt?" Dao Xueke only then reacted that he had been slapped and lightly touched his cheek, which was indeed a little painful, and Chu Qing'an did not reserve it when he started. But he still apologized: "It's really too rude, Miss Chu is right." Under the play should be. ”

"Don't apologize, I'm most annoyed by your courtesy, sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes, and peers, isn't it good to go straight to the point, it's really annoying to do these red tapes. With that, Chu Qing'an half-squatted down and put on his shoes, then turned around and walked towards the octagonal pavilion. Halfway through the line, he turned his head sideways and swept his eyes to the knife snowman who was still standing in place, the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile for no reason, and he chuckled: "Don't come along?" Chu Qing'an walked into the pavilion and turned to look at the knife snowman, but found that he was still keeping a distance from him outside the pavilion, and he was three points angry, frowning and asking: "You are so far away from me, aren't you afraid that I am a tigress, and I can swallow you alive?" I secretly felt that her appearance was a little similar to Liu Yuanjun, so she smiled and said, "Miss Chu is a little similar to the next old man." "Which girl? Isn't it your little glass girl?" Chu Qing'an sat on the stone bench in the pavilion with his hair in his hands, and gently patted the table to signal Dao Xueke to sit down as well, and Dao Xueke stopped being polite and sat down.

Dao Xueke shook his head when he heard this: "Xiaoli and I are indeed not what the girl thinks, and I really regard her as the closest sister." Chu Qing'an smiled: "Maybe you think so, but she may not." I saw her reaction at that time, she must have been moved by you. Since the old man you are talking about is not her, I want to come to you with a lot of confidants?" Chu Qing'an teased. Dao Xueke chuckled and shook his head again. "I wonder why the girl came to Sword Cliff tonight?" asked the Blade Snowman. "You are so strange, you said in the afternoon, this sword cliff is my Yiye Sword Gate, why can't I come?" Chu Qing'an said coquettishly.

Dao Xueke said: "Of course, the girl can come here at any time to pick the sword, but is it because she is disturbing the girl's cultivation here or for some other reason, so that the girl wants to hold the sword against each other?" Chu Qing'an raised his chin lightly, his eyes were slightly closed like silk, and said softly: "What if I said that this girl came to kill you on purpose?" Dao Xueke was a little stunned when he heard this: "I have no grievances with the girl, does the girl still remember the incident that day when I blocked the girl's sword in the grass house under the mountain?" Chu Qing'an liked to see him stunned the most, and couldn't help laughing out loud again, and continued: "This girl is not so careful, that incident has already been run away by me. To be honest, my father has been praising your sword skills today, and I really don't believe what my father said, so I want to try it with you. Temptation to test how many pounds and taels you have. Dao Xueke suddenly realized: "It's not my ability, it's really the Lord of Chumen who is too ridiculous, isn't it because Trumen wants you to tempt it?" "Of course not!" Chu Qingan hurriedly shook his head, "Of course I came here secretly, if I let my father know that I came to the Sword Cliff in the middle of the night to sneak attack and test you, I will definitely give me a good meal, and even grounded me at home, I won't be able to go out to explore the rivers and lakes!" After that, she stood up suddenly, put her fingers to the tip of Dao Xueke's nose, pointed at him and said: " So tonight's matter, in addition to you and me, if a third person knows, I will kill you!" Dao Xueke's nose was against the jade finger, only to feel a faint fragrance lingering on the tip of his nose, and he was stunned when he heard the words, and when he turned around, he felt a little funny, although Chu Qing'an was a little obedient and willful, but from time to time he revealed a little simplicity and a little cuteness.

Chu Qing'an suddenly groped for something all over his body with his hands, stood up and looked around, squatted down, and observed the ground around him, his face was a little nervous, as if he was looking for something. "What is Miss Chu looking for?" Dao Xueke asked kindly. "Where is my sword, I don't know where my sword went!" Chu Qing'an was already slightly crying as he squeezed the empty scabbard. Hearing this, Dao Xueke turned over and walked out of the Octagonal Pavilion, took three steps and two steps to the ancient tree, and pulled out his sword. Look closely at the sword, the sword body is slender and long, and the double blades are cold. The blue linen under Wu Jin's hand wrapped the transparent snowflake pattern green jade sword hilt layer by layer, and the purple gold pendant hung at the end, and the red sword spike was hung. From the hand to the end of the hilt of the sword, the flying snow branches are carved with phoenixes, which shows how attentive the craftsman is. Under the moonlight, the blade of the sword reflected sporadic silver light, and the dots of silver were scattered on the body of the sword like stars, which was really a good sword. After taking off the sword, Dao Xue Kefu rushed back to the octagonal pavilion, and handed the sword to Chu Qing'an, who was still looking for it with his head down.

Chu Qing'an was stunned for a moment, patted his forehead and said, "I actually forgot that it was taken away by you and inserted in the old tree." Then he took the long sword, put it into the sheath, looked at the lost and recovered long sword in his hand, his heart was also much more relaxed, he breathed a sigh of relief, and sat down with a smile on his face. Dao Xueke sat across from her, and seeing that she cherished her sword so much, he asked, "Do you cherish it very much?" Chu Qing'an replied, "That's nature. Those who practice martial arts love weapons the most, and they are indispensable for wandering the rivers and lakes. Many people use only one weapon in their lives. This sword of mine is called Oriyuki, and you see, it has a snow character engraved on its body. With that, he pulled out the sword and pointed it out to the sword snowman, and sure enough, at the end of the blade, there was a snow word on the hilt of the sword. "What's the allusion to it?" asked the Blade Snowman again. Chu Qingan put the sword back in its sheath, slowly got up, and paced back and forth in the small pavilion: "It was given to me by my father when I was seven years old, and I also started practicing martial arts when I was seven years old. It's been with me for eleven years now, and my father said that although it is not a rare weapon in the world, it was created by my ancestors and the most famous swordsmith at that time, using dark iron for more than a month. Since I was a child, I have been practicing martial arts and have suffered a lot, and I am the only one who is by my side. Over the years, I have traveled the rivers and lakes and made a nickname of a sword woman, and it is all because of it, so it means a lot to me. Chu Qing'an turned around and looked at the Dao Xueke who was just nodding: "Since you are a swordsman, you should be able to understand the importance of weapons. It's just that I wanted to try your sword skills today, but I never thought that your fists and feet would be so good. Dao Xueke smiled and didn't say much, his fists and feet are actually just average, but he tempered himself, how can the hardships he endure be compared to Chu Qing'an, a person who has been pampered and raised under the care of people since he was a child, although he has also endured hardships, he is far inferior to Dao Xueke, who has a rough background.

"Hey, where is your knife?The weapon of a person who practices martial arts should not leave his body for a moment, right?Is it no wonder that you didn't use a knife when you started with me?" Chu Qing'an realized that Dao Xueke had no weapon, and he was puzzled. Dao Xueke replied: "During the martial arts competition this afternoon, he was cut off by Chen Wuqiao. "Chen Wuqiao?" Chu Qing'an felt a little incredible, in fact, she didn't go to the martial arts arena to watch the martial arts competition this afternoon, but went to play elsewhere, the process of today's martial arts competition was still heard from Chu Yunshan and other disciples, but she couldn't believe it all the time, and now she heard about it from Dao Xueke's mouth, and she was even more puzzled, "Is it really Chen Wuqiao, the great protector of the Qiankun Sect?" Dao Xueke told Chu Qing'an the whole process of today's martial arts competition with him and Xiao Wuxian, and the speculation of Wen Nanzhi and the three of them without reservation. Chu Qing'an believed it, nodded and said, "Then Chen Wuqiao deserves it, and now he is seriously injured." But it's no wonder, I remember you used a bamboo knife, and it wasn't unusual for it to be cut off. But why do you use a bamboo knife?" Dao Xueke explained, "That bamboo knife was made for me by Hall Master Xiao. When I was twelve years old, I lived in the mansion of the Lord of Xiao Hall, and he sharpened this bamboo knife for me so that I would not hurt myself and others in my martial arts. Over time, they became accustomed to it, and they did not replace it. Unexpectedly, it is still a pity that it has been cut off by someone now. Chu Qing'an could understand his mood, nodded and said, "Presumably you also have feelings for it." It's just that I'm afraid that those people on the rivers and lakes who haven't seen you can't believe that the first swordsman of the Ten Ghost Hall, Dao Xueke, uses a bamboo knife. Chu Qing'an thought of this, and laughed again.

"But you can't do it without weapons, and I'm going to try your sword skills. Chu Qing'an's lacquer-like eyes turned, and a good idea came to her mind, "There you have it!" She hurriedly approached Dao Xueke and grabbed Dao Xueke's hand. Dao Xueke was a little embarrassed by her sudden pull. Thinking about the women who have been dismissed since childhood, whether it is Liu Yuanjun or Rao Mengli or Duan Qingmeng, none of them are as straightforward and calm as Chu Qing'an. But it was inconvenient to excuse herself, so she let her pull her away and didn't speak.

Chu Qingan pulled him away from the Sword Picking Cliff, took advantage of the night, walked up a wooden staircase, went down the stairs, turned two more corners, and walked across a wooden bridge. The two of them came to a place, and Dao Xueke intuitively felt that the house was like a storehouse, but it was unguarded, and the house seemed to have not been visited for a long time, and the corners of the walls had grown cobwebs and accumulated a lot of dust, as if a wind could blow the whole sky.

"Where is this, why did Miss Chu bring it here?" asked Dao Xueke. Chu Qing'an let go of his hand, turned to face him and said, "This is the weapons storehouse of my Yiye Sword Gate, but because I am studying swordsmanship from top to bottom, I store other weapons here, and very few people come here because they are not often used." Also left unattended. Now you can choose one of these weapons to take advantage of, so that the next time you fight someone, you will still be bare-handed. Looking at Chu Qing'an's full smile, Dao Xueke still felt very inappropriate: "Absolutely not, how can you touch the armory of the Yiye Sword Gate without permission, this is absolutely impossible." After saying that, he was about to turn around and leave, but was pulled by Chu Qing'an. "What do you mean without permission, if I have permission from the eldest lady of the Sword Gate, it will be regarded as a gift from me! Is this still rude? Is it still up to you to control the weapons of my own family!"

Although Dao Xueke felt that there was some reason, he still wanted to excuse himself: "But why did Miss Chu give me a weapon?" Chu Qing'an's face suddenly appeared flushed, and it was already inconvenient to notice it in the night, and he hurriedly said: "Because... Because I'm going to try your sword, if you don't have a weapon, how can I test your sword, and convince me? Dao Xueke shook his head and smiled, although he knew that she couldn't do anything about herself, he still went with her.

Pushing open the warehouse, it turned out that no one had entered for a long time. The wind brought by pushing the door in an instant stirred up layers of dust accumulated by the door, and the dust flew up, filling the entire room and fascinating the eyes of the two. choked Chu Qing'an's unstoppable cough.
