The girls in white were flying between the swords and swords, Gu Hai was looking at it vigorously, but Su Zi noticed something, he stabbed Gu Hai with his elbow, and then leaned into the other party's ear again: "Look at Senior Sister Jiang's landing point, she doesn't look like she is really poor in swordsmanship, but more like she is arranging a formation." ”
Gu Hai paid attention to Su Zi when he heard this, and sure enough, Jiang Xingque's landing points were regular and could also guide Bai Zhi's moves by the way, although the latter was not completely unaware, but he had unconsciously entered the formation too much, and it was indeed extremely difficult to get out at this time, she could only try her best to gain the upper hand in the grappling, trying to find a chance to break through.
"It's really worthy of being the top five of the two trips, just comparing a sword can be so exciting. Gu Hai couldn't help but sigh, he originally thought that in Xie Boyu's story, Xia Huairuo's tricks were enough to shock people's hearts, but now the two people outside the pavilion could surprise the audience with sword moves alone, without any grand scene.
The entanglement stopped abruptly after Jiang Xingque twisted his fingers, and the appearance of an immortal binding array faintly appeared on the ground paved with stone slabs, trapping Bai Zhi firmly in it. Jiang Xingque took the frost fall back into the sheath and said to Bai Zhi without a trace of pride and disrespect: "I haven't taken anything from my senior sister without permission, if my senior sister doesn't believe it, you can go to my courtyard to search it." ”
Bai Zhi in the formation was angry, she pointed her sword at Jiang Xingque, even if the tip of the sword trembled almost uncontrollably because it was against the edge of the formation, she did not let go of the hand holding Xiang Jun, at this time Xiang Jun and Jiang Xingque were only separated by a while, if they could break the immortal array and get closer to an inch, it would be the other party's heart. Bai Zhi asked coldly, "Then let me ask you, did you put back the remaining half of the jade pendant in the swamp lake?"
"The jade pendant was left by me, but it was not put back by me, if Senior Sister wants to know who put it back, I can only say that I have no comment. Jiang Xingque said that Bai Zhi was silent and did not speak, so he continued: "I really didn't take the half of the piece that was given to Senior Sister, please look elsewhere." This array of about half a pillar of incense will be automatically lifted, and the senior sister will not believe me or I will solve it now, and please stay in it for a while, and the senior sister will leave first. Jiang Xingque held his sword outside the formation, and made a solemn gesture at Bai Zhi, and then turned around and left without hesitation, Bai Zhi did not say a word in the formation, until he watched the slightly petite back disappear into the courtyard wall of the flower pavilion, and then slowly put down the Xiangjun who was holding it tightly in his hand.
Gu Hai and Su Zi saw Jiang Xingque gradually walking away, so they also retracted their bodies behind the wall. The girl in white was carrying a white sword, and the pure white tassels swayed gently in the moonlight with her steps, and the three people behind her couldn't see her frowning, they could only see her walking away with great openness, and none of them noticed that the direction Jiang Xingque left was not from the depths of Shangyang Peak, but from the edge of the sword cliff leading to the Sword Peak.
Silent and cold night, the cold moonlight illuminates the snow and bamboo forest even more lonely, if it weren't for the path that has been walked by Jiang Xingque, I'm afraid that anyone will feel that this is a no-man's land. Her steps were so light that she didn't even leave footprints on the thick snow. When she walked to the bamboo hut in the forest, the lights had been turned off, and she was quietly hidden between the snow and bamboo, because the weather was so cold, even Yan Yin, who had always liked to leave a small window, had closed the doors and windows firmly today.
Jiang Xingque stood between the snow and knocked lightly on the door, and it was a long time before the sound of Xi Suo wearing clothes came from the house. When Yan Yin opened the door, he was wearing a cold orchid purple coat, but inside was an inner lining embroidered with sprinkled golden plums, even if ten years had passed, his favorite was not Han Lan, but still the sprinkled golden plum that bloomed in winter. He was a little surprised when he saw that the outsider was Jiang Xingque, and then he took Jiang Xingque into the warm bamboo house with a smile.
Yan Yin closed the door, and the biting wind and snow were replaced by melting warmth in an instant, and he turned around to see Jiang Xingque with his back to him. Ten years have passed, the little girl who was only on his waist has grown up, Yan Yin inexplicably sighed, he still remembers that Jiang Xingque wore the butterfly hairpin he made by himself and shouted that his brother ran towards him, the memory is clear as if he can go back to the past in the blink of an eye, but in the end, no one is right, now he has already become Yan Yin, and Jiang Xingque's brother has also become a person named Jiang Xingge.
The girl who happened to reach Yan Yin's chest looked up at the person in front of her again and again, but lowered her eyes, Yan Yin noticed that even after so much time, she was still that little appearance, it turned out that just without the old look, she could make a person completely different. Thinking of this, Yan Yin briefly moved his gaze to the mirror not far away, and the tall and thin figure that was clearly reflected was weak and pale, and he no longer had the appearance of the high-spirited young man in fresh clothes and angry horses.
"Brother, the half of the jade pendant in Senior Sister Bai's hand is lost. In the end, Jiang Xingque finally interrupted Yan Yinfei's thoughts back to ten years ago, she lowered her head and didn't look at Yan Yin for some reason, like a timid child who mustered up the courage to throw questions to the other party.
Yan Yin seemed to be a little puzzled at first, but he reacted after a while, he was not annoyed, he just sat down on the nearest rattan chair casually, and then asked, "Do you want to ask if I took it away?"
The bright candle flame illuminated the hesitation on Jiang Xingque's face clearly, she didn't answer but just stood silently with her head bowed, so Yan Yin said again: "I rarely even go out to this snow forest, let alone go to Shangyang Peak." Seeing that Jiang Xingque still didn't know how to speak, he had to continue: "You come to ask me like this, even if I take it, do you think I will tell you?"
Jiang Xingque lowered her eyes slightly, her long eyelashes cast a clear shadow on the wall due to the candle flames, and she replied in an almost inaudible voice, "No." Yan Yin chuckled softly when he heard this, and then gently hugged his former sister into his arms, he put his hand between Jiang Xingque's hair and rubbed it gently: "Haven't you grown up yet? There are so many people in this world who will lie to you." ”
When leaving the bamboo house, the wind and snow outside the door were a little stronger, and the cold wind with snowflakes blew in bursts, blowing Jiang Xingque's dress to dance wildly in the wind, and she gradually walked away with the moonlight on her back, as if the butterfly hairpin given to her by Yan Yin in her childhood, trembling step by step as if she was about to fly away in the next second.
Yan Yin blew the lamp and sat down slowly against the edge of the wall, buried his head deep in his arms, and then raised his head again for a long time, and then showed an incomprehensible smile on his face with a slight tear stain.
Before he came out of the deep path, Jiang Xingque saw a figure standing at the exit of the snow and bamboo forest facing the moonlight, the young man had a calm face, and the wind on his back reflected the moonlight and emitted a cold light. The wind and snow lifted and dropped his strength, but he just stood quietly, waiting for Jiang Xingque to appear from the other side of the path.
"What are you doing here?" Jiang Xingque asked knowingly as he jumped up and down in front of Jiang Xingge. The young man in front of him was still the same as before, and only said, "Let's go." Then he took Jiang Xingque's hand and walked towards Shangyang Peak.
