That night, Pan Xincheng and Yu Shuang slept in the inn for less than two hours, Yu Shuang slept soundly, but was quietly woken up by Pan Xincheng, Pan Xincheng told Yu Shuang that there were many cats in this inn, in order not to make any extraneous branches, the two decided to wait for everyone to sleep overnight.

Pan Xincheng's magic weapon is called "Tianhe Mirror", Tianhe Mirror is blue all over, cool as water, under the urging of Pan Xincheng's magic trick, the wind is long, carrying Yu Frost Yukong to hurry, this way except for the town when eating every day, the rest of the time is above the sea of clouds.

At this moment, it was dusk, Pan Xincheng urged the magic weapon and continued to move forward, Yu Shuang sat cross-legged on the Tianhe mirror, with his back to Pan Xincheng, his head couldn't help but look around, and the vast beauty along the way really made him feel refreshed.

After all, it was the first time for Yu Shuang to step out of the sea of clouds, and he saw the vast blue sky, the white sea of clouds was like a turbulent river, stretching thousands of miles under him, and there was no end in sight.

The clouds in the western sky are steaming, and the fiery red sun gradually sinks into the sea of clouds, sprinkling the dazzling glow on the nearby sea of clouds, which looks like a fire, just like a begonia drunk sun, like the crimson cheeks of a shy girl.

Yu Shuang faced the sea of clouds, as if there was an indescribable joy in his heart, and the residual sun was also reflected in his eyes, and the afterglow was sprinkled on his face, kind and gentle.

The strong wind was blowing, Pan Xincheng's clothes were hunting, his face was gentle, his hands were behind his back, and he suddenly turned to Shuang and smiled: "Shuang'er, we are almost there." ”

Yu Shuang was stunned when she heard this, and turned around and said, "So fast?"

Pan Xincheng smiled faintly, also sat down on the Tianhe mirror, and said, "How does Edgeworth feel?

Yu Shuang shook her head, smiled, pursed her lips and said: "The sea of clouds is so beautiful, if only I could also resist the sword, if the weather is good, I can take Ying'er to the sky to see the sea of clouds, Ying'er will definitely be very happy." ”

Pan Xincheng patted Yu Shuang's shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I promise you, I will take Ying'er to watch the sunrise above the sea of clouds in the future." ”

"Really?" Yu Shuang's eyes lit up, and she was overjoyed.

Pan Xincheng smiled, looked at Yu Shuang, and said categorically: "As long as Ying'er is willing, Pan can take her to fly up to the sea of clouds every day to watch the sunrise." ”

The sun was gradually engulfed by the sea of clouds, and the last rays of the sun disappeared with great reluctance. The air gradually cooled down, Pan Xincheng urged the Tianhe mirror to sink slowly, and finally sank into the sea of clouds, it turned out that the sky was still gloomy, the twilight clouds were white, and the cold wind was bleak.

Not long after they fell in a maple forest, the Tianhe mirror hung on the ground, Yu Shuang jumped down from it, Pan Xincheng's magic trick was introduced, the blue light around the Tianhe mirror gradually shrank, slowly turned into invisible, and the Tianhe mirror finally turned into a bronze mirror that looked clumsy.

Pan Xincheng stretched out his hand and put the Tianhe mirror into his arms, and said to Shuang: "This is already the boundary of Yijian Villa, and the hill you saw just now is Yijian Villa." Saying that, he raised his eyes and looked forward along the road, and said lightly: "We will go all the way along this road, and we will reach the foot of the mountain after leaving this maple forest." ”

Yu Shuang raised his eyes and looked at the surrounding environment, only to see that many maple trees were still stacked with a thick layer of snow, and there was a white expanse all over the place, full of scenes of Xiao Suo's slaughter, and he couldn't help but shudder, and said in a low voice: "Uncle Pan, let's hurry up, it's best to get out of this forest before dark." ”

Pan Xincheng nodded, turned around and walked forward.

The two of them walked for about half a stick of incense before they left this maple forest, and in front of them was an inn, standing next to the road up the mountain.

Pan Xincheng stopped, hesitated, turned to Yu Shuang and said, "It's getting late today, why don't we stay here for one night, and we'll go up the mountain at dawn tomorrow." ”

Yu Shuang nodded and said with a faint smile: "Okay, everything is up to Uncle Pan." ”

Pan Xincheng smiled slightly and walked over first.

This inn is also built alone at the foot of the mountain, but the building is very simple, the area is not large, the whole body is a total of three floors, the signboard is hung vertically at the door of the store, and the four big characters of "Yijian Inn" are written on it. The inn's lobby was open, with eight tables inside, much like a roadside teahouse.

From a distance, there were several people drinking tea around a table in the hall, looking dressed in white, a man and two women, all of whom seemed to have the air of wind and dust, and seemed to have just arrived here.

Pan Xincheng walked over, and Yu Shuang followed behind him.

When the shopkeeper saw a guest coming in, he greeted him very warmly, smiled and arched his hand: "Look at the appearance of the two dusty servants, dare to ask, but you received an invitation to give us the birthday of the owner of the village?"

Pan Xincheng knew that this was not an ordinary inn, so he didn't dare to slack off, and bowed his hand and said: "Yes, under Pan Xincheng, entrusted by the city lord of Nie, came to celebrate the birthday of the owner of Xie Zhuang." ”

Yu Shuang looked at the shopkeeper and saw that he was wearing a black and white coat with a long sword embroidered on his sleeve, which seemed to be the symbol of Yijian Villa. He looked to be in his forties, with a finger-long beard under his lips, and his eyes were piercing.

The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said happily: "Could it be Pan Xincheng of Yulin City's Demon Destroying Guard?"

Pan Xincheng smiled slightly, and said lightly: "I don't dare to be the Demon Killer Guard, but I just do my best to talk about the people of the city." ”

The shopkeeper laughed and greeted: "Mr. Pan is famous, and he has admired him for a long time, and I am fortunate to see it today, it is really a happy thing, come and come, please take a seat." ”

The shopkeeper beckoned Pan Xincheng to sit down at a table, Yu Shuang also sat down beside him, the shopkeeper poured a cup of hot tea for the two, and said slowly: "In Xiayi Sword Villa, the master of Qingqi Hall, the surname is Lu Dan, and the word 'Hua' is the surname, and Mr. Pan will call me Lu Hua." ”

Pan Xincheng smiled slightly: "Jiuwenyi Sword Villa is divided into four halls, green flag, purple flag, yellow flag and white flag, all the hall masters are excellent in swordsmanship, exquisite Taoism, and it is true that it is worthy of its reputation when I see it today." ”

Lu Hua's eyes flashed, and he said with a smile: "Where is it, Yijian Villa is in a corner, and he has long ignored the world, and Mr. Pan has an overreputation." ”

Pan smiled sincerely, turned his head to look at Yu Shuang, and said lightly: "Shuang'er, I've seen Hall Master Lu soon." ”

Yu Shuang responded, got up and bowed to Lu Hua, and said respectfully: "Junior Yu Shuang, I have seen Hall Master Lu. ”

"No need to be polite, please get up quickly. Lu Huayu helped him up, looked up and down, there was a lot of appreciation in his eyes, and he turned his head to Pan Xincheng and smiled: "Pan Gongzi is so blessed, this young man is a virtuous nephew?"

Pan Xincheng took a sip of hot tea and said with a slight smile: "No, it's a distant relative of Pan." Saying that, he hesitated for a moment, and then diverted the topic: "According to the date on the invitation, the day after tomorrow will be the birthday of the owner of the village, right?"

Lu Hua nodded slightly, looked at Pan Xincheng with his eyes, and said slowly: "Yes, there is a humble house at the foot of the east, west, north and south of Yijian Villa. ”

Pan Xincheng pondered for a moment and said lightly: "In this way, someone has already arrived, right?"

Lu Hua smiled slightly, and said: "Exactly, Yijian Villa has always boasted of the righteous path, although its reputation is not as good as the five major factions of the righteous path, but the owner of Xie Zhuang has been upright all his life and has a wide range of contacts, so a few days ago, there were righteous people who came one after another, and they have arranged to live in the village." It's getting late today, so let's have Lao Pan Gongzi and Yu Shaoxia aggrieved first, stay in the shop for one night, and wait for Lu to send someone to send the two up the mountain tomorrow, what does Pan Gongzi think?"

The first time Yu Shuang heard someone call herself "Young Hero", she couldn't help but feel a little flattered, smiled smirked, and lowered her head.

Pan Xincheng smiled, got up and arched his hand: "This is very good, then there is the hall master of Laolu." ”

Hall Master Lu waved his hand and said with a smile: "The two of you rushed here in the dust, Lu is just a little bit of the friendship of the landlord, please don't be polite to Mr. Pan." ”

Pan Xincheng and Lu Hua looked at each other and smiled, and they were no longer polite.

Pan Xincheng sat down on the stool, picked up the teacup in his hand, seemed to remember something, and asked: "Shicai Pan took a sip of this tea, and felt that the taste was extremely familiar, but he couldn't remember where he drank it for a while, and he dared to ask where this tea came from?"

Lu Hua's smile froze for a moment when he heard this, and then he said calmly: "This tea is a gift from a master, and the owner of Xie Zhuang instructed us to share this tea with friends from all walks of life to express our gratitude." ”

Pan Xincheng nodded slowly, holding the teacup in his hand, and said in a low voice: "I see, then thank the owner." ”

Lu Hua smiled slightly, and in the corner of his eye, he seemed to see that the teacup in front of Yu Shuang had not moved, and smiled at Yu Shuang: "Yu Shaoxia, this tea is a treasure, it is priceless, such a good tea, if Shaoxia doesn't taste it, wouldn't it be a pity?"

Yu Shuang was stunned, hurriedly picked up the teacup, and said with a smile: "I just wasn't thirsty just now, let's taste it now, thank you Hall Master Lu." With that, he threw his head back and drank it down, then wiped his mouth with his sleeve.

Pan Xincheng looked at the tea in the cup, frowned, and seemed thoughtful.

Seeing this, a trace of sharpness flashed in Lu Hua's eyes, the corners of his mouth suddenly raised, and he said lightly: "Then don't disturb the two of you for the time being, please sit here for a while, and the food will be delivered later." ”

Pan Xincheng came back to his senses, got up and arched his hand: "Thank you Hall Master Lu, Hall Master, please take care of yourself." ”

Lu Hua smiled slightly, then turned around and walked into the inner room.

By this time, it was completely dark, and several oil lamps were burning in the hall, and the dim light emitted by them reflected the surroundings of the hall.

Yu Shuang shrugged her shoulders and looked around, only to find that in addition to the two of them, there were three people sitting in the innermost corner of the hall, I don't know if they were a little far away, since they entered the door, they didn't notice them, and they didn't seem to speak.

Yu Shuang turned his head curiously to look, only to see that the man's face was like a crown of jade, handsome, and he was tasting the tea in the cup, he seemed to feel that this person was a little familiar, but he frowned and thought for a long time, but he still couldn't remember where he had seen it.

There is also a woman sitting facing her, sitting in a very elegant posture, plump, picturesque eyebrows, holding a copper mirror, staring at the copper mirror without blinking, and her white jade hands are arranging a strand of hair on the sideburns.

This woman seems to have seen it somewhere, Yu Shuang lowered her head and thought carefully, but Wu couldn't think of it.

He sighed slowly, then stopped looking at it or thinking about it, picked up the teapot and poured another cup of hot tea, and tasted it slowly.

He glanced sideways at Pan Xincheng, only to see Pan Xincheng frowning, looking at the tea for a long time, as if in a daze, he shrugged his shoulders and looked away, and he didn't intend to interrupt Pan Xincheng.

There was a moment of silence in the hall.

"Senior sister, I don't think anyone will come today, why don't we go upstairs." A cold, melodious girlish voice broke the silence in the hall.

There was a "buzz" in Yu Shuang's mind, although this sound had only been heard for a moment, but it was so clear, as if it was engraved in his head.

He looked back, but saw the girl sitting sideways, carefully wiping the sword in her hand, although he only saw her side face, but Yu Shuang's heart was "chuckling" a little.

The girl's face is like jade, white as snow, the slender nose bridge is like a distant mountain, the eyelashes are like a blooming snow lotus, and the eyes in the center of the snow lotus seem to be the summer autumn water, sparkling under the bright sun.

There are no words to describe the unique chill on her body, Yu Shuang's heart beat fast, and a picture suddenly appeared in her mind, as if the clean and immaculate snow in winter slowly turned into a human form, with faint eyebrows, a red mouth, a slender nose and cold and sad eyes.

Coupled with the fact that she is dressed in white, she is really the girl in her mind.

Yu Shuang stood up and turned his head to look at it like a chicken, Pan Xincheng's thoughts were also interrupted by the woman's words, he just turned around and looked, but was startled by Yu Shuang's actions.

Pan Xincheng stretched out his hand and shook Yu Shuang's shoulder, Yu Shuang came back to his senses, as if he had woken up from a dream, and he couldn't tell whether it was cold sweat or hot sweat on his forehead, and slowly slid down.

Pan Xincheng frowned, glanced behind him again, and didn't find anything unusual, and couldn't help asking, "Shuang'er, what's wrong with you?" ”

Yu Shuang lowered her head, gasped heavily, as if she didn't dare to raise her head, and said in a low voice: "I...... I'm fine, just drink saliva. After that, he picked up the teacup and drank it all in one gulp, and his complexion slowly returned to normal.

Pan Xincheng looked at Yu Shuang's appearance, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter, he hesitated for a moment, suddenly got up, walked over to those people, and said with a smile: "Looking at the three costumes, they must be disciples of the righteous path Liuyang Mountain, right?"

When the three of them heard this, they looked up at Pan Xincheng, and when they saw Pan Xincheng coming over, they also stood up together, and bowed back to Pan Xincheng. Saying that, he looked at the two junior sisters in the same door and said to them, "Quick, I've seen Mr. Pan." ”

When the two women heard this, they bowed their hands to Pan Xincheng and said in unison: "Yang Xueli, Tian Fang has seen Pan Gongzi. ”

Yu Shuang's heart jumped suddenly, and she looked sideways at the girl in white, but saw that the girl who looked like frost was originally named Yang Xueli.
