Chu Li sat in front of the window, watching Xiao Qi walk up to the snow lake, along the plank road into her water pavilion, and the graceful figure disappeared.

It was as if a piece of his heart had been dug out, and his body was soft and couldn't exert any strength.

The morning sun shone on his body, but he didn't feel the slightest warmth, the sky and the earth seemed to lose their color, and the valley, which was originally extremely beautiful, became empty and lonely, and the intoxicating atmosphere it emitted disappeared.

He sat for a long time until Su Ru came over to beckon him to eat.

Following Su Ru to her water pavilion, Xiao Qi was dressed in white like snow, sitting quietly by the window, looking at him lightly, and did not speak.

Chu Li smiled and sat down opposite her.

Su Ruming's eyes rolled.

The two of them behaved no different from usual, but they always felt that there was a strange atmosphere between the two, which was different from usual.

She looked carefully, as if the young lady's gaze was more active, and she kept staring at Chu Li, and Chu Li was not to be outdone, and the two looked at each other from time to time.

She smiled secretly, and it seemed that the relationship between the two had increased greatly.

After finishing the meal, Chu Li said, "I'm going to visit you seniors today, and I'll leave tomorrow." ”

"Let's go?" Su Ruming's eyes widened: "Why are you in such a hurry?"

"What should be gone will be gone after all. Chu Li said: "There is still something to do." ”

"Stay for a few more days, and then leave when my sister is in retreat. Su Ru glanced at Xiao Qi.

Xiao Qi said lightly: "If he wants to go, let him go!"

Su Ru was extremely reluctant and stared at Xiao Qi.

Xiao Qi said: "He wants to do business, and it's not like he won't meet again." ”

"But this is too urgent!" Su Ru snorted.

Chu Li smiled: "I plan to raise an eagle and let it come over to deliver the letter when the time comes." ”

"That's a good idea!" Su Ru said with a smile: "I wish the golden eagle raised by the old man is very spiritual, and I will ask him for the secret method of domestication." ”

Chu Li nodded, took a deep look at Xiao Qi, and got up to leave.

He visited Wang Wensi one by one. Jiang Chunyue and Li Qingluo resigned with them, and finally came to the water pavilion of Shenying Lake.

Shen Yinghu was sitting in the small pavilion, looking at the lake lazily, motionless in a daze. The corners of the amorous eyes seem to contain sorrow.

Chu Li stepped into the small pavilion and sat opposite her.

Shen Yinghu propped his chin and looked at him lazily.

Chu Li said: "I have made it clear to Xiao Qi that she will continue to practice the Taishang Sword Sutra." ”

Shen Yinghu looked him up and down, his clear eyes swept around, and he shook his head: "You will regret it." ”

"I hope so. Chu Li smiled: "I'm looking forward to seeing her as a master of the gods!"

"By then, she's no longer attached to you. ”

"It's okay, I'll let her have it. Chu Li smiled: "When she first entered the Guogong Mansion, she also practiced the Taishang Sword Sutra. Won't be tempted by men. ”

"Courageous!" Shen Yinghu showed a charming smile: "No wonder Xiaoqi can take a fancy to you...... But you have to understand that when you entered the Guogong Mansion, the Taishang Sword Sutra was just a layer of cloth wrapped around her heart, and when she became a master of the gods, there was already a wall around her heart. ”

"I can break through this wall. Chu Li took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Shen Yinghu.

Shen Yinghu took it and touched it, and there was a jade pendant in the letter.

Chu Li said: "The seniors know when to give it to her." ”

"Good. When are you leaving?"

"I'll leave tonight. ”

"You can come over often to see Xiaoru's girl. Shen Yinghu said: "Xiaoqi is in retreat, she is very lonely. ”

Chu Li nodded.

He stood up and clenched his fists. Shen Yinghu sighed and waved his jade hand lightly.

Chu Li slowly left the small pavilion.

Not long after returning to the pavilion, Su Ru came with a burden in her hand.

Chu Li sat on the couch and looked at her with a smile.

Su Ru stared at Chu Li: "Are you making an awkward fuss?"

"Sort of. Chu Li smiled: "It will be fine after a while." ”

"I don't know what you're doing. Su Ru shook her head and said, "But she is in a bad mood." ”

Chu Li nodded.

She was still pretending to be fine. Su Ru snorted: "You must have made her angry...... That's what you can do!"

Xiao Qi cultivated the Taishang Sword Sutra and had a cold temperament. Her mood is always calm and waveless, and it is difficult for others to make her angry, and her mood will not fluctuate.

Chu Li sighed and smiled.

"She asked me to send it. Su Ru opened the baggage.

Inside is a moon-white robe, flawless throughout. Not so white and conspicuous, and spotless.

"She said, you're going to look good in it. Su Ru took it out and shook it and handed it to him: "Put it on and try it to see if it fits." ”

Chu Li took off his coat and put on a white robe.

The material of the white robe is strange, soft and heavy, it feels like Xiao Qi's skin, cool and warm, delicate and flexible.

"This is woven by moon hemp, it is very rare, there are many benefits, water and fire do not invade, swords do not hurt, and the most important thing is that it is not clean, how can it not be dirty, small ...... She has one, and this one makes you a robe, and it seems to fit well. Su Ru looked at it and said.

Chu Li said: "She still has such skills?"

"What do you think?" Su Ru smiled: "Her needlework skills are extremely high, her clothes are made by herself, this is the first time she has made it for others, it fits very well, so let's wear it like this." ”

Chu Li smiled and nodded.

Su Ru slapped his face: "Okay, what do you have in return?"

"Nope. Chu Li shook his head.

Su Ru glanced at him.

Chu Li smiled: "Thank you on my behalf." ”

"I won't tell you!" Su Ru snorted, waving her hand and leaving.

――

The moonlight was like water, Chu Li stepped out of the plank road, carrying a burden with a white robe inside, and walked out slowly.

When he came to Taniguchi, he suddenly felt something and turned around.

The water pavilion of Shen Yinghu is two stories high, and Xiao Qi, who is wearing a white shirt, is standing on the roof, looking at him quietly, like a flawless white jade statue under the moonlight.

Chu Li smiled at her, turned around and strode away.

Watching his back disappear into the valley, Xiao Qi trembled slightly, empty, and his heart seemed to be taken away by him.

The sun was rising, and a ray of gold shone on his body, and he stood unconsciously all night.

Shen Yinghu came to her side and sighed lightly: "Silly girl, it's not life and death...... You're better than your mother, and you didn't pick the wrong man. ”

Xiao Qi was silent.

Shen Yinghu patted her on the shoulder: "Think about your mother, think about the Guogong Mansion, and then think about Chu Li's hard work, you should make a decision!"

"I want to retreat. Xiao Qi's voice was hoarse and dry.

"Good. Shen Yinghu grabbed her wrist, and the two of them left the water pavilion and went deep into the valley.

All the way to the end of the valley, stopping in front of a cliff that reached into the sky and could not see the summit.

The two of them swayed up against the cliff, and they never fell into the clouds, and she bit her index finger and pressed it somewhere.

There was a "boom", and a hole appeared in the cliff.

The two entered the cave, crossed a road in the cave, and suddenly opened up in front of them, and another valley appeared in front of them, which was the same as the valley of Xueyuexuan, with snow lakes, woods, flowers, and beauty.

The only difference is that there is only a water pavilion and a small pavilion on this lake.

Xiao Qi stood in the small pavilion, looking at the clear and waveless lake, with a cold expression.

"Have you figured it out?" Shen Yinghu leaned on the railing and asked casually, "Continue to practice the Taishang Sword Sutra?"

Xiao Qi was silent.

Shen Yinghu didn't urge her, leaning on the railing to look at the lake.

Time passed slowly, from morning to noon, and then to evening.

Xiao Qi was motionless, as if she had turned into a statue.

Shen Yinghu leaned against the window in the water pavilion and looked at her, shaking her head helplessly.

The sun sets, the lake looks like a huge red satin, the valley is dyed rose, and everything becomes magnificent.

Xiao Qi's body shook non-stop.

Shen Yinghu sighed, floated to her side, and handed her a letter: "This is what he left for you." ”

Xiao Qi's face was as pale as paper, his eyes were scattered, he took the letter, and slowly opened it with his jade hand shaking. (To be continued.) )
