Volume 1 The first time to set foot in the rivers and lakes Chapter 16 Love is deep and long-lived
"After eating, come to my house. ”
After lunch, Bai Chu said so, and then turned around and went back to the house.
Xu Zhaonan, Gu Sihai and Granny Sun glanced at each other, and from the suspicious or calm eyes of the two, they confirmed that the senior sister was indeed talking to herself.
"Oh, good. ”
hurriedly swallowed the food in his mouth and answered loudly, I don't know if my senior sister heard it.
Xu Zhaonan said respectfully to Grandma Sun, who stopped her movements: "Mother-in-law, senior sister called me, I will go over first, and I will clean up the dishes later." ”
Grandma Sun smiled kindly, nodded and said, "Go ahead, I'll clean it up later." ”
"Then thank you mother-in-law. ”
After saying that, he nodded to Gu Sihai again, and got up and went out.
While holding the dishes, Grandma Sun lowered her head to the rice in the bowl and said, "I'm leaving tomorrow, maybe I have something to explain." ”
"Alas. ”
Gu Sihai naturally knew that Granny Sun was talking to him, sighed, and said, "If Mother-in-law and the young master are worried, let's go with Sihai." ”
Grandma Sun ate by herself, and after the food in her mouth was slowly swallowed, she said, "It's you who is worried." ”
"Hey, hey. ”
Although Gu Sihai is nearly half a hundred years old, he is still like a child in front of Grandma Sun, and said with a smile: "Although this kid's cultivation is okay now, this trip is far away, and he has no experience in the rivers and lakes, so it is a little worrying after all." ”
Grandma Sun seemed to have guessed that he would say this, so she hummed calmly and asked, "What if someone finds out what you are doing?" ”
Gu Sihai obviously had a plan in his heart, and replied: "It's okay, I can follow him secretly after I change my appearance, if my life is at stake, I won't show up." ”
Granny Sun nodded and said, "I still have to agree with the young master." ”
Gu Sihai said with a smile: "I think the young master will agree." ”
Xu Zhaonan walked outside the thatched hut where Bai Chujian reported, and pushed the door in after getting permission.
After entering the hut, his eyes were instantly drawn to a sword on the stone table.
This sword does not have a grid, but rather a sword that is directly connected to the hilt, which is somewhat rare, and the end of the hilt is inlaid with a dazzling sapphire as an embellishment. At this time, it was quietly hidden in the scabbard, the scabbard and the hilt were made of thousands of refined steel, although the sword body was not visible, but it could be seen from the hilt alone, this sword was extraordinary.
Bai Chujian was standing at the table at the moment and looked down at the sword, his eyes showed a look of remembrance, and he said lightly: "Take it up and try it." ”
"Good. ”
Seeing this sword, Xu Zhaonan was already itching, and when he heard his senior sister give such an order, he answered, walked to the table, held the sword in his hand, and gently pulled out the sword.
As the sword body slowly unsheathed, in an instant, the temperature in the room seemed to drop a few points, and I saw that the sword was about four feet long with a handle, and the whole body was dark blue, emitting a faint cold light, like the water of a deep pool, clear and cold.
"Good sword!"
Xu Zhaonan sighed in admiration, holding this sword and dancing a few sword flowers.
With the movement in his hand, the sword body transformed into a cold light, and the temperature in the room dropped a few points, Xu Zhaonan realized that the temperature change just now was not an illusion, which made him love this sword even more.
"If you like it, I'll give it to you. Bai Chujian stared at the long sword and said lightly.
Xu Zhaonan hurriedly stopped the movements in his hand, returned the sword into the sheath with a bang, carefully placed the sword on the table, and waved his hand again and again: "No, such a divine sword must be the beloved thing of the senior sister, how can I keep it for myself." ”
Seeing that he refused to accept it, Bai Chu was not annoyed when he saw it, but just reached out and stroked the scabbard, and said softly: "This sword is called 'Love Deep', which is a love thing that my father gave to my mother back then, and the sword 'Immortal' that my father matched with is a pair, all of which are cast by Ou Yezi, a famous craftsman in the world, with the same piece of meteoric iron. ”
Speaking of Ou Yezi, we have to mention the sword saint Nie Da thousands of years ago, Ou Yezi was not famous in the world at the beginning, one day, the same unknown friend Nie Da found Ou Yezi and asked him to build a matching sword for himself.
Ou Yezi went through nine hundred and eighty-one days, and used all his efforts to forge a divine sword that shook the past and the present-Seven Star Dragon Yuan.
Legend has it that on the day of the sword, the electric light between heaven and earth is great, it can be said that the wind and clouds change color and thunder in all directions, the sword is dark throughout, and the seven grooves of the sword body are all made of the essence and blood of the fierce beast, leading the brilliance of the sun and the moon without being exposed, and there is a sound of thunder hidden between the waves, like a tiger roaring and a dragon roaring.
When Nie Da's sword path was not completed, he swept the world with this sword and it was difficult to meet the enemy of a group, and after the sword was completed, he abandoned the sword and did not use it, and tied it in the sword village and passed it on to future generations.
The name of Ou Yezi is also famous for this sword, although it is thousands of years away, the original Ou Yezi has already returned to the west, but the sword casting technology has been passed down from generation to generation, and the most outstanding person among the descendants can pass on the name - Ou Yezi.
Xu Zhaonan suddenly, when he first saw this sword, he felt that the style was a bit like a women's sword, and after listening to the senior sister's explanation, he realized that it was originally held by the senior sister, and he refused to accept it at the moment, and insisted: "Since it is the relic of the master, I can't accept it." ”
Bai Chu ignored him and continued: "Although the 'Hidden Blade' you took from Uncle Gu's house is also a sharp blade, it is worse after all. This time I went down the mountain, I wanted to bring my father's 'longevity' to you, but 'longevity' is too famous in the rivers and lakes, and it is inconvenient for you to bring it with you. Thinking about it, my mother rarely walked in the rivers and lakes back then, and there are not many people who have seen this sword, so it is just right for you to hold it. ”
"Senior sister, I have 'Zangfeng' enough, you should keep this sword. Xu Zhaonan insisted on not accepting it.
Bai Chujian frowned at his good-looking eyebrows, glanced at him, and said, "Come back and return me." ”
Seeing that the senior sister was angry, Xu Zhaonan was a little stunned in an instant, and had to thank him: "Okay, then thank you senior sister." ”
"One more thing. Seeing that he agreed, Bai Chujian nodded and continued to instruct: "Take Xiaobai with you." ”
"Good. ”
Xu Zhaonan thought about it, this time the mountains and rivers are far away, Xiaobai's foot strength is not a little slower than that of a good horse, and it is also a help with its force value, so he nodded and agreed.
The passage of time does not stop at people's wishes, and the children will eventually leave home to go outside when they are older.
In the early morning of the second day, the three of Yaoshan all stood on the top of the mountain to see off Xu Zhaonan.
At this moment, Xu Zhaonan's waist hung "Zangfeng", his body was "affectionate", he was dressed in a black suit, and his long hair was tied behind his head, which really looked like a chivalrous man.
Xiaobai, who was carrying a bag full of bags, also knew that he would be separated from everyone, and was grinding with the Yixue ear sideburns who stayed in Yaoshan.
Seeing this battle, Xu Zhaonan was a little flattered, scratched his head, and said goodbye one by one: "Senior sister, mother-in-law, Uncle Gu, I'm leaving." ”
Grandma Sun held a cane in her hand, still looking so kind, smiled and nodded without speaking.
Gu Sihai snorted coldly and said, "Go early and come back early." ”
In the end, it was Bai Chujian who stepped forward, and helped Xu Zhaonan tidy up his already neatly dressed clothes, and said lightly: "Don't let Yixue and Xiaobai be separated for too long." ”
I don't know if the meaning of the words is really about two white wolves, or if it means something else.
"Got it. ”
Xu Zhaonan responded: "After attending Brother Huo's wedding, I will come back immediately." ”
"You don't have to ......" Bai Chujian hesitated for a moment and said, "It's good to see more of the prosperity of the world." ”
"Hey, hey. ”
Xu Zhaonan laughed: "In Zhaonan's heart, there is no better place in the world than this Yao Mountain. ”
After that, he jumped lightly, straddled Xiaobai's back, and shouted softly: "Xiaobai, let's go." ”
"Whew......"
With a long roar, Xiao Bai moved his limbs and ran wildly, and disappeared from everyone's sight in an instant.
When Xu Zhaonan walked away, Gu Sihai also bowed down and said to Bai Chujian: "The old slave also went with him." ”
Bai Chujian nodded and instructed, "Don't be smelled by Xiaobai." ”
The white wolf's sense of smell is sensitive, everyone knows it, and Granny Sun has already handed over the prepared elixir to Gu Sihai and asked him to wear it on his body to cover up the smell and hide his whereabouts.
"The old slave understands. ”
After that, Gu Sihai said goodbye to Granny Sun again, and then picked up his light skills and chased in the direction where Xu Zhaonan left.
Only Granny Sun was left standing in place to accompany Bai Chujian.
The forest was long gone, but the two of them had been standing on the top of the mountain quietly watching the direction they had left.
............
But it was said that Xu Zhaonan, riding Xiaobai all the way wildly, did not enter the city on the road, only scurried in the forest, and finally ran out of Nan'an County before the sky was dark and the city gate was closed, and came to Jiangyue City, the capital of Jiangnan County.
As the capital of the south of the Yangtze River, Jiangyue City is naturally a traffic important city, the city is high and deep, the city wall of more than ten meters is high, the left and right can not see the edge at a glance, and there are many pedestrians coming and going at the city gate, and the end is very lively.
Even if the guards at the city gate are accustomed to seeing people in the rivers and lakes, and they have a lot of experience in dealing with rangers, they are still amazed by Xiaobai's handsomeness.
Although Xiao Bai carried Xu Zhaonan for hundreds of miles, he did not show any fatigue, his snow-white hair exuded dazzling brilliance under the sunset, and he was squinting his wolf eyes at the moment, and Xu Zhaonan, who had also never been to the prosperous county town, was curious about everything around him.
Although the city gate guards were amazed by the one person and one wolf in front of them, they were county guards after all, and a pair of tricks were lit up.
They know which people are easy to mess with, and which people can't be touched, although the person in front of them looks young, but the sword on his waist is already extraordinary, and the long strip wrapped in linen behind him is obviously a sharp sword, plus walking is accompanied by strange beasts, presumably it is either a master of the rivers and lakes or a child of a wealthy family, so naturally he does not dare to slack off.
At that moment, after collecting the entrance fee, he was allowed to enter the city without hindrance.
Entering the city, the whole Chen Chi is brightly lit, the Jiangyue City is full of people at the beginning of the lanterns, some shops on the street are not closed, the guests who come in and out are endless, many rangers with sharp swords come and go in a hurry, a good picture of the prosperous scene of traffic.
While walking, Xu Zhaonan remembered in his mind that when Uncle Gu took him to Yaoshan a few years ago, the official surnamed Su he had met seemed to claim to be a Jiangnan county guard, and after so many years, he didn't know if he was still an official in Jiangnan County.
Presumably the nobles are forgetful, and the official surnamed Su is only afraid that he has already forgotten Uncle Gu's life-saving grace back then, and he was just passing by this Jiangyue City and staying for one night, and it is impossible to go to bother him, and his face is not so thick.
However, just because he glanced at the official's daughter, he was ridiculed by Uncle Gu for many years.
"Young man in front, get out of the way!
Xu Zhaonan recalled the past with a smile on his face, and when he was slowly wandering on the vast street, suddenly, he heard a woman's exclamation in front of him.
Looking up, I saw a woman in a green shirt riding a red horse rushing towards her, and she also warned loudly.
"Roaring ......"
Xu Zhaonan steadied his horse and was about to stop the jujube red horse with one palm, but Xiaobai next to him jumped out and blocked in front of him, his hair stood on end, and he let out a long howl in front of him.
Sonic boom Jiangyue City.
