Chapter 8 The spring tree is hazy
As soon as the day dawned, Xie Jiang was dressed in a robe, swinging the boat that escaped for his life, and went up the Hunan River. There was fog around the boat, and there were cattails as far as the eye could see by the river, and he was the only one on the river. It was still raining in the sky, and although Xie Jiang was wearing a robe and a hat, it was still a little cold. He was the only one on the ship, and there was a sword on the deck of the ship, which Xie Jiang had never seen. Xie Jiang recalled the murderous sword, Liu Lian's Nirvana sword, You Xiyun's Dragon Sword, and Qin Yuanxi's black sword, all of which were different from this sword, this was just a very ordinary sword, a bit like an ancient sword, the sword brought by those old masters who came and went to the grassland.
Xie Jiang couldn't remember why this sword was here. This scene is like the morning when he came to Tanzhou with that uncle six years ago, the uncle was not on the boat, did he go to the ferry in front? Xie Jiang rowed hard, and soon he saw the Lianjiang ferry full of people. Steamed bun sellers, fish sellers, and fishing gear sellers flowed endlessly on the ferry. Xie Jiang parked the boat, took the sword on the deck and went ashore. The buns seemed to be very fragrant, and although he was not hungry, Xie Jiang still bought two packs. A group of people gathered around the street, and Xie Jiang also went over to see that two ruffian-looking little beggars were bullying a girl.
Xie Jiang shouted, "Stop." โ
The two little beggars and the little girl all looked back at him, this little girl's familiar face was the girl she met when she first arrived in Tanzhou six years ago? But it felt a little wrong, and it didn't look like a painting, otherwise she shouldn't have been bullied by these two little beggars. The three of them looked at Xie Jiang at the same time, but they were smiling happily, and the little girl came over and asked Xie Jiang if she could take her to Tanzhou!
Xie Jiang looked at the two little beggars, but the two ruffian beggars walked away with interest, leaving only the embarrassed Xie Jiang and the little girl, and Xie Jiang took the little girl to Tanzhou.
The water flow is very fast today, Xie Jiang wants to know who this little girl is, but he doesn't know how to speak. But after reading it, I felt that I knew this little girl, and I was afraid that I would be blamed and say that I had forgotten about other people! The question kept swirling in Xie Jiang's heart. This girl didn't seem to have any intention of talking to Xie Jiang, and the two of them were so dull.
It seemed that a long time had passed, and the first few small boats surrounded me. Looking closer, there were several masked people on each boat, and one of them shouted: "Xie Jiang, you ran away in General Ma's Mansion last time, you left your life this time!"
Xie Jiang thought about it, he was the masked man in General Ma's tragedy, but he was not afraid, because he had already learned kung fu. The little girl had already come behind Xie Jiang, and Xie Jiang unconsciously pulled out the sword on his body.
"Haven't I learned to use a sword yet?" Before Xie Jiang could react, a masked man's harpoon had already picked it up, Xie Jiang's sword had already met it, blocking this harpoon, Xie Jiang jumped up, as if it was Second Brother You's Nine Turns Back Dragon, "Wow, I know how to swordsmanship."
But there are a lot of masked people, maybe standing on the boat, but Xie Jiang's swordsmanship can't help these masked people, and when he always feels that his sword is going to hurt a masked person, people always have a way to avoid it, which makes Xie Jiang very discouraged. What should I do if I can't win the fight? What if these masked people bully that little girl? What if there are more and more masked people coming from behind? Xie Jiang is very anxious!
"Stop!" Liu Lian, who was holding the 'Nirvana Sword' in the distance, stood at the bow of a small boat, and several masked people immediately surrounded Liu Lian. Xie Jiang breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the deck of the ship. Then, a large knife shook under the water and cut Xie Jiang's boat at the waist. Xie Jiang fell into the water, and Xie Jiang was still thinking: Fortunately, I can swim in the water, and I am not afraid in the water. But when he opened his mouth to breathe, a large mouthful of river water poured into his throat, and he couldn't breathe. I'm going to suffocate, Xie Jiang can't paddle even if he can't paddle hard, he can't breathe air, and he keeps sinking down, what should I do? Mom and Dad? Am I just going to die?
"Ahยทยทยทยทยทยทh
Then, Xie Jiang woke up, but it was Nan Ke's dream. It's really a false alarm, slowly reminiscent, but also surprised and happy. Xie Jiang thought that he would definitely find the old master tomorrow to interpret his dream.
The window was already exposed, and when Xie Jiang got up, Lu He was still asleep on the side, and he got up only to find that he and Lu He were sleeping in a guest room in Linjiang Building. When I opened the window, there was a white fog on the river outside. A few willow trees drooped and fell by the river, and the wind blew, and the branches full of new leaves fiddled with the wind. With the dampness in his mouth, it brushed on his face, bringing a trace of coolness, but it also made Xie Jiang sober up a lot. My head hurts so much after drinking. Yesterday was still sunny, it was a good time to visit the mountains, and today it was a white fog, but I was afraid that it was going to rain.
Before it was full dawn, Xie Jiang came to the lobby of Linjiang Building to find tea to drink. The lobby was quiet, only one person sat by the window making tea. Wu Shen Ge also woke up early, got up alone to make tea and sober up, and when he saw Xie Jiang coming down, he beckoned him to come over and drink tea.
"Brother Xiao Wu is so early,"
"You're also early, you drank a lot of wine yesterday, and you didn't sleep for a while?"
"I woke up from a dream, what happened yesterday, I don't remember at all!"
"You both are up, your head hurts, do you hurt?" You Xiyun also came down.
"Come to drink tea, just brewed, this is the tea brought back from Junshan, do you smell it, is it fragrant?"
Where did Xie Jiang know how the tea was, seeing that You Xiyun was smelling, he also followed to smell the fragrance of tea, and took a sip.
"Well, it's fragrant, it's very tender," You Xiyun is a bit like pretending.
"Second Brother You, it's so early, do you remember last night?"
"I don't remember either, but I knew that I wanted to vomit all over the place," You Xiyun was still a little embarrassed.
"Do you remember throwing up all over the place, a few of you, vomiting everywhere, and sleeping after vomiting. โ
"What about Lu He and Cai Hua?"
"Lu He sleeps in one room with you, and one person sleeps in another room. You guys, it's going to be much better next time you drink, hehe, it's time to exercise!"
"Hehe, thank you, Brother Xiaowu. โ
"Xie Jiang, yesterday I heard you say that you learned martial arts from Monk Banyun? I only heard that you helped out in the grass house of the imperial master. โ
"By the way, Brother Xie Jiang, your martial arts yesterday were very strange!" You Xiyun also asked.
"I'm sorry, Brother Xiaowu, I didn't tell you before. On weekdays, I go to Master Banyun in the morning to meditate with him, sometimes I go to the grass house to help when I am busy, and I come to your shop in the afternoon to do chores. โ
"How is Master Banyun's kung fu?"
"Are you still quite busy! Hehe, meditating with a monk, are you just going to be a monk?"
"No, Master Banyun didn't say that I should follow him as a monk, but just meditated with him every morning and chanted scriptures, I haven't seen my master's martial arts, usually he just plays chess with the old master, and he meditates. I only learned this set of techniques two years ago, and when I first learned it, I thought it was very powerful, but yesterday I realized that it was completely useless. Speaking of which, I almost had to go to Master Banyun to meditate with his old man, but I was going to be too late, but I was going to be embarrassed again. โ
"Do you go so early every morning?"
"Yes, usually when I put the net in the morning to catch fish, I just put the fish I caught in the kitchen and go to Master's place. โ
"Oh, I didn't even know you were working so hard, so go ahead. โ
"Okay, I'm not hard, I'm leaving. โ
"I'll go with you to see you meditate, will your master agree to me watching you meditate?" You Xiyun said.
"It should be fine, there's nothing to see about meditation. However, the scenery of the Mid-Levels Pavilion is still quite good-looking. โ
"By the way, there is another thing, you will go directly to the currency gate in the west of Tanzhou City after you are busy with Mr. Huangfu in the afternoon, there is a tea shop in front of the currency gate, I posted a notice there to collect snails in the tea shop. You go to Boss Li, who sells tea, and tell him that I don't have something to do today, you go and help collect the snails, and let Boss Li pay for the snails first. โ
"Okay, I know, Second Brother You, let's go. โ
