Gu Tiannan shook his head and slapped the "Heavenly Demon Blood Sword Thirty-six Styles of Killing Immortals and Destroying Gods" in Zhao Tianyang's arms.

He straightened his back and looked at the sea of clouds churning on the edge of the Hidden Immortal Rock, with a shallow smile and loneliness on his face. After careful calculation, he has been practicing swords for two months, and he still has no way to understand the sword qi and sword intent, and the "Imperial Wind Sword Sutra" left by Chu Fengming is still incomprehensible.

The sense of disappointment is consuming Gu Tiannan's perseverance and patience a little bit, is he destined to become the sword immortal who is independent and opens the gate of heaven?

Zhao Tianyang seemed to see the senior brother's intentions, he stood up, looked at Gu Tiannan with a solemn face, and said: "If the turtle grandson who killed the senior uncle also has the realm of slaughtering five hundred people with a sword volley, can you still take revenge for our senior uncle's revenge?"

"Yes!" Gu Tiannan didn't say a word today, and practiced the sword drawing style six thousand times.

After drinking three cups of tea, Zen Master Kongming drifted down the mountain, and Ling Daosheng personally sent it to Xuanyue Gate at the foot of the mountain.

Before leaving, Zen Master Kong Ming whispered in Ling Daosheng's ear: "The matter of Ling Di Ning Yuan may have something to do with the Shura Field in that wild wolf valley. ”

Looking at the back of Zen Master Kongming's stride and gradually moving away, Ling Daosheng didn't turn around and go up the mountain for a long time, and Lu Yunqing on his side seemed to hear the master mutter: "It's going to change the sky." ”

Lu Yunqing looked up at the still warm sunshine in the blue sky, and looked puzzled, did he hear it wrong?

It was just night, and the cold wind was already howling on the Little Lotus Peak, dripping into ice.

The disciples of Dongcang Pavilion also finished their homework early, hid in the warm wing, and gathered together to roast and chat.

In the apse of Zixiao Palace, the bright and flawless moonlight sprinkled all over the corridor, giving a layer of soft silver to the pavilions and pavilions that have gone through a hundred years of wind, frost, rain and snow, making it impossible to tell whether this layer of silver is frost or moonlight.

The residence of the senior brother of Dongcang Pavilion is brightly lit at this moment, Gu Tiannan, who has practiced the sword for a day, is exhausted, and now he is sitting cross-legged on the bed meditating and pranayama, and the Huanchen sword is horizontal on his knees, not leaving his body for a moment.

With a "squeak", the door was pushed open directly, and the visitor did not knock on the door, but the movement was very gentle.

Ling Cangxue walked in with a purple dinner plate, on which there were three dishes of meat, two vegetables and three dishes, as well as a bowl of fragrant beef soup that looked extremely cold and warm.

Seeing that Senior Brother Gu Tiannan was still pranayama with his eyes closed, Ling Cangxue sat quietly at the table, holding up her chin and looking at the handsome face stupidly, her slender and thin figure was stretched very long by the candlelight.

After about a cup of tea, Gu Tiannan slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a long breath.

The true qi in his body ran for three weeks in a row, and the meridians around Gu Tiannan's body were full of heart, and the feeling of fatigue also dissipated a lot.

"Brother Nan, come on, it's me cooking today, hurry up and try my skills!" Ling Cangxue hurriedly set aside the dishes and chopsticks, her movements were quick and skillful, obviously a frequent visitor here.

"Oh, as far as I know, this is your first time cooking, and I happen to be dizzy from hunger, and I'm already close to my back. Being able to eat the dishes made by Senior Sister Cang Xue herself, I really don't know if it is a blessing that I have cultivated for several lifetimes!" Gu Tiannan rubbed his sore arms, with a tender expression.

Ling Cangxue's face was slightly red with shame, and her expression was a little proud and expectant, she hunched her back and stood up slightly, took a slice of eggplant with chopsticks, and put it in Gu Tiannan's bowl, "Try the eggplant fried meat first!"

In these years, the daughter of the big family, whose five fingers do not touch the spring water, which one can cook and is willing to cook? Especially Ling Cangxue, who is regarded as the pearl of Ling Daosheng's palm, has never been to the kitchen once since she was a child.

Gu Tiannan was indeed hungry at this time, so he picked up the celadon bowl and began to devour it.

Gu Tiannan's mouth was full, and before he could swallow, the expression on his face suddenly changed!

This eggplant was also too salty, and Gu Tiannan's throat was as uncomfortable as a needle prick.

Gu Tiannan subconsciously wanted to spit out the food that was difficult to swallow in his mouth, and suddenly thought that there was a little junior sister Cangxue sitting next to him who was shining with anticipation in her eyes.

Gu Tiannan held the edge of the table with one hand, raised the celadon bowl with the other to cover his expression, and swallowed the food in his mouth hard, trying not to chew.

Ling Cangxue pulled the hair on her sideburns at will, looked at Gu Tiannan, who was swallowing heavily, and said with a smug expression: "Brother Nan, you eat slowly, I have already eaten it, no one will rob you!"

"It's delicious, it's delicious, I'll try other dishes!" Gu Tiannan gritted his teeth and swallowed the salty eggplant, looked at Ling Cangxue's beautiful cheeks, and sighed secretly in his heart: "People can't be too greedy, how can there be a perfect thing in this world?" It's hard to cook beautifully, and it's not beautiful to cook, as long as it's not beautiful and hard to cook, then steal the fun!"

After such a self-comfort, Gu Tiannan's face was filled with an incomparably natural smile again, and he also threw a wink at Ling Cangxue.

This flattering eye is indeed from Gu Tiannan's sincerity, as long as he can convince himself, anything is credible.

Ling Cangxue was happy and ashamed, and her face became more and more delicate and ruddy.

Under the light of the dim candlelight, her eyes were as bright as the stars in the night sky, and her budding shy look at this time really responded to that idiom, beautiful and delicious.

Except in front of Gu Tiannan and his father Ling Daosheng, Ling Cangxue's face almost never had this kind of expression. The tragic fate of the catastrophe made her look like an innocent cardamom girl to outsiders, but like a mature woman who was born from a miserable background and saw through her fate.

It was this strong contrast between the frosty eyebrows and the spring breeze that made Gu Tiannan realize his position in Ling Cangxue's heart.

Ling Cangxue is a very insecure person, she hates parting, and she hates any change in her familiar life. A person like Ling Cangxue is only enough to live in one person in his heart.

"Try this vinegared cabbage!" Ling Cangxue bit her lip, too ashamed to touch Gu Tiannan's burning gaze again, and after sandwiching the dish for the senior brother, she slightly turned her body to the side.

Gu Tiannan looked at the slightly reddish cabbage in the celadon bowl, and a sense of foreboding suddenly rose in his heart.

Gu Tiannan stiffened his head, picked up the cabbage and dipped it lightly on his lips, and sure enough, a vinegar smell that made the roots of his teeth tremble swept in, it was too sour!

Gu Tiannan pursed his lips, but still gritted his teeth and swallowed hard.

After a meal, Gu Tiannan ate a small half of the three dishes, but the beef soup made by his wife Lin Yuehua was not left, and the reason he gave after careful consideration was: "It's too cold at night, drink more hot soup to drive away the cold!"

After Ling Cangxue cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, she looked at the house full of curls that had fallen a thin layer of dust, and asked softly, "Where did Lin Fengming, who was dumbfounded before, go?"

Gu Tiannan laughed when he heard this, first muttered "dumbfounded", and then replied: "The dead sparrow has returned to Luoyang, and his home is in Luoyang!"

Ling Cangxue was silent for a while, staring at the flickering candle flame and said softly: "I heard that Luoyang is very big, with a lot of traffic and flowers. ”

Gu Tiannan patted his thigh and said: "Luoyang, Kyoto is naturally prosperous, and the streets and alleys are full of people. Speaking of Luoyang, Gu Tiannan's eyes lit up, he was also a person who had been to Luoyang, Kyoto.

"There are not only our Central Plains people, but also the envoys of the Western Regions, the ninja swordsmen of the Eastern Regions, the swordsmen of the Nanyi Warlocks, and the witch doctors, and I heard that there are also spies of Youyan of the Northern Dynasty! Luoyang not only has a lot of people, but things are also very expensive! When I went down the mountain to Luoyang with Tianyang, I spent more than 800 taels of silver in less than three days. Somehow, we spent all the money, and when we traveled around the rivers and lakes, a few of us were as pitiful as the begging flowers on the streets, and we used all kinds of tricks to get enough to eat! If you want to blame, you have to blame the old fox of the sixth uncle, he knows that Luoyang's food, clothing, housing and transportation are not expensive......

Speaking of this, Gu Tiannan's eyes suddenly darkened, and he sighed softly.

Ling Cangxue knew that Senior Brother remembered Uncle Ning Yuan again, so she changed the topic and said: "Since ancient times, Zhu Yan has not come anymore, you have not seen Tianyake, Luoyang Dao, once you come back, you will be old again." Brother Nan, when you go down the mountain again, take me to Luoyang, I heard that the rouge gouache there is the best in the whole northern Zhou, but I don't know how much silver taels it costs. ”

Gu Tiannan patted his chest and said with a big grin: "This is easy to say, wrap it on me! How much is a small rouge gouache worth, ten taels of silver to buy a basket!"

Gu Tiannan seems to be complacent, but in fact, he is just talking nonsense.

Ten taels of silver is already a big price that Gu Tiannan can't underestimate, enough for him to drink a burning knife for half a year, and occasionally eat one or two side dishes.

But in Luoyang, Kyoto, where every inch of land is valuable, ten taels of silver may not even be able to buy two dishes and a pot of wine.

It's like a country farmer working in the fields, always wondering if the emperor is carrying a golden hoe to hoe the land, and whether the vassal king's family only puts meat and not green onions when baking meatloaf.

Ling Cangxue ruffled her hair with one hand, leaning on Gu Tiannan's shoulder as if she was about to leave, and she asked in a low voice, "Will you go to the Hidden Immortal Rock tomorrow to practice swords?"

A faint scent of iris came, Gu Tiannan's heart trembled, his arm trembled and wanted to hug the slender waist of the beautiful woman beside him, and after three or four ups and downs, he still honestly put it on the chair.

Gu Tiannan sighed, as if complaining about his cowardice. He looked at the hazy moonlight on the window paper and said vigorously, "Practice!"

Ling Cangxue raised her head and looked at Senior Brother's knife-like and hard-lined face, and muttered, "It would have been great if you hadn't traveled down the mountain for those two years, let's stay on Dongting Mountain for the rest of our lives, just like now, plain and quiet." ”

Gu Tiannan's expression suddenly deepened, put away his hippie smile, and said slowly word by word: "When you walk into that river and lake, you will no longer be the same person you used to be." ”

In the dim candlelight, Ling Cangxue seemed to shake her head, she sat up straight, with a hint of displeasure on her face, and said, "I'm going back to Immortal Peak, and I'll go to the Hidden Immortal Rock to find you tomorrow!"

Gu Tiannan patted Ling Cangxue's face and said with a smile: "Brother Nan will send you, if a wolf takes my precious junior sister away, I won't be able to live!"

"Flim tongue!" Ling Cangxue replied, a smile on the corner of her mouth.
