Chapter 10 Xiao Chumen

It coincides with March in Yangzhou, which is a good time to enjoy flowers and explore spring. Liang Huayue has a lot of neatness and often comes to Du's house as a guest. It's just that she and Yu Qinghe still hate each other as soon as they meet, you come and go, and everyone is in a posture of not admitting defeat.

The dew was heavy and slightly cool at night, and Liu Xunyin was still reading medical books. Seeing the light and shadow, she got up and added oil to the lamp and added a piece of clothing.

"Yin'er. Du Ruo knocked on the door and came in, bringing a white porcelain cup: "Yangzhou's lotus seed soup is better than that in Taoyuan Town, your master specially made it, try it." ”

Liu Xunyin scooped up a spoonful, and it was really sweet and moistened his throat.

"Thank you, Master. Did Qinghe drink it?"

"He has not recovered from his injuries and has used a lot of medicines to warm and nourish qi. Your master specially selected the lotus core and made him a bowl of tea to reduce dryness. ”

"Isn't that very bitter? Liu Xunyin frowned.

"The. It's a good thing to make him suffer a little. Du Ruo smiled: "Yin'er, what are you looking for?"

"Although all the poisons in Huayue's body were discharged, it only took a day or two for them to stasise again. I've looked through a lot of medical books, but there is no record of it. I don't know what the poison of the Valley of Forgotten Worries is made of, but it is so powerful. ”

"Forget the Valley of Worries?" Du Ruo frowned, and after asking about the specific symptoms, he said slowly: "I'm afraid that only the person who has poisoned can solve it." ”

"How is that good, is there no other way?" asked Liu Xunyin nervously.

"I'll go to Liang Mansion tomorrow to have a look, don't worry. Du Ruo comforted: "Yin'er, you rest early and go to see the master tomorrow." ”

"Door master?" Liu Xunyin was taken aback, since she came to Xiao Chumen, Du Lao Sect Master has been closed, even Du Ruo and Yu Danzhu have turned away, and she will not have time to meet him.

"Yes, he wants to see you by name. The old man has a very strange temper, and if you can't stand it, just prevaricate with him and say goodbye. Du Ruo smiled.

"Yes. Liu Xunyin nodded.

The courtyard was deep, and Liu Xunyin knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered. Just as he was about to turn away, the door suddenly opened automatically, and a light and shadow flew by. She flashed sideways, and the stone table behind her instantly broke in two.

"You are agile, but you have ever practiced martial arts. ”

I saw the master of the old Du family leaning on the couch, his temples were white, his hair was meticulously combed, and his eyes were deep, like a bottomless cold pool.

"The master of the door. Liu Xunyin bowed respectfully: "My mother taught me some." ”

"A healer, what can she teach you? Master Du sneered: "Since you are here, learn some kung fu, and use it as a self-defense technique." ”

"Thank you, Master. Xiao Chumen's kung fu is not passed on to outer disciples, and he does not dare to find sound. ”

"Why don't you dare, if your father is still here. You still have to call me Master. ”

"Your father is my most valued disciple, if he is still here, it will not be Yun'er's turn to take over Xiao Chumen today. The old man coughed twice.

"Is the door master sick?" Liu Xunyin walked forward.

The old master shook his head and signaled that it was okay: "I am in my twilight years, and it is not surprising that I have a small illness and a small pain. You come here. ”

Liu Xunyin walked with him to the corridor, the breeze blew, and as far as the eye could see, the river was sparkling and beautiful.

"Looking for sound, Liu Xunyin. He smiled: "Ah Ruo shouldn't give you such a name, your life is not anyone's sustenance." There is only one time in life, and you should be free to worry about the rivers and lakes. When you die, you can have no regrets. ”

"Back then, your father and I also stood at the head of the river like this. The old man had a sad face: "I heard the news of your father." Seeking sound, Xiao Chumen's discipleship: righteousness first. If he goes astray, do you know what to do?"

"Why did the master of the door say this. Liu Xunyin was taken aback.

"His disappearance is full of suspicions, and even if I believe in him as a person, more than ten years later, no one knows what will happen. You know what I mean. ”

"Xunyin understands. Liu Xunyin smiled: "But the master of the door also said that people should be free to behave in the world." I am not a disciple of Xiao Chumen, I don't want to be bound by the rules of the sect, and I can't make such a promise. ”

The door master smiled: "Your stubborn temperament is like your father." Well, I'm sure you'll make the right choice. ”

He handed Liu Xunyin a flute: "This was originally intended to be given to your father." ”

Liu Xunyin took a look at it, this jade flute is made of Kunlun ice cui, the workmanship is meticulous, and the body of the flute is engraved with the word "empty". At first sight, you know that it is extremely rare, and it is really a boutique in the world.

"Xunyin deserves it. ”

"Take it. I will let Yun'er teach you the flute herself. The old master said: "I heard Ah Ruo say that you are talented and intelligent, and I think you will not live up to such a good baby." ”

"Thank you, Master. Liu Xunyin took it carefully.

"The road is long, you must take care, be careful in everything, and do not trust others. Don't be like your father, never return......" The old man had a sad look on his face, his eyes were red, and he turned away.

"Xunyin understands, thank you for the teachings of the ancestors. She knelt down and bowed deeply to him three times for her father.

"Let's go. The old master waved his hand with his back to her, signaling that he would not say anything more.

As the new head of the incoming office, Du Yun does not have any arrogance and is kind to others. Xiao Chumen respected him very much.

"Xunyin, Qinghe, do you know how to write Xiao characters. Du Yun asked.

"Uetakeshita Su. Liu Xunyin was puzzled.

"Uncle wants to give us a character lesson first?" Yu Qinghe said with a smile.

"Naturally not. Du Yun said with a smile: "The original meaning of the word Su is thousands of needles and holes, and it is transformed into the sound of the wind whistling in the sky." In addition, the bamboo character is the head, which means that the bamboo instrument is played to simulate the sound of the wind. We, Xiao Chumen, use this sound of Xiao as a blade to control the wind and kill the enemy. ”

Du Yun moved the jade flute to his lips, and his fingers tapped the flute body for voice control. Instantly, the fallen leaves in the courtyard swept away, and the wind was loud. As the sound of the flute suddenly stopped, the wind seemed to instantly condense into a force, and an extremely thick ginkgo tree was impacted and broken at the waist.

"Uncle is amazing!" Yu Qinghe exclaimed.

"You two try it too. Du Yun smiled and handed them a flute.

Liu Xunyin studied rhythm and music scores until late at night every day, very hard, and made rapid progress under Du Yun's guidance.

But Yu Qinghe lay motionless on the couch chair in the study: "Sister, I'm afraid of memorizing medical books at home." I didn't expect to finally come out to play, and I had to memorize the score. ”

"You, learn more kung fu. You won't be bullied. Liu Xunyin smiled and touched his head.

"With you and Brother Wen here, what am I afraid of. Yu Qinghe muttered.

"Young Master Wen?" Liu Xunyin trembled in his heart: "What has he been doing lately?"

"I don't know, Brother Wen goes out early and returns late, and often doesn't come back for several days. Xu found some interesting places in Yangzhou City, don't take us there. ”

"That's right. Liu Xunyin frowned, and secretly thought to himself: "If you are not familiar with life, where will Wen Ember go." ”
