Listening to the rain building,

Listen to the rain upstairs and listen to the rain fall.

At dawn, a touching guqin song came slowly from the 'Listening to the Rain Building' on Qixia Mountain in the western suburbs of Nanjing. At this time, Qixia Mountain was shrouded in a layer of mist, as if draped in a light veil.

The drizzle, like smoke and fog, fluttering and sprinkling, lingering.

The drizzle enveloped the sound of the piano, and the mountain spring flowed and flowed gently.

Xiao Xiaotian is sitting upright on the desk, wearing a green veil fluttering, his hands as thin as green onions are caressing the piano, and between the flicks of his fingers is a soothing "Beauty Song". The sound of the song is full of 'wind and rain in the south of the Yangtze River, reading flying flowers and catkins. ’

Yelu Hanyan was sitting quietly, holding the 'red sky' in his arms. His eyes were slightly closed, as if listening to the sound of the rain falling.

A "Beautiful Woman's Song" was played.

Xiao Xiaotian suddenly spoke: "Today, are we going?"

Yelu said with a smoke: "Go!"

Xiao Xiaotian said: "Kill whom?"

Yelu said with a smoke: "Alliance leader!"

Xiao Xiaotian stood up and began to pack up the guqin.

Yelu asked, "You saved a little girl yesterday?"

Xiao Xiaotian said: "Yes, that little girl is very cute, I like her very much." ”

Yelu said with a smile: "Why did you start saving people? ”

Xiao Xiaotian said: "You misunderstood, it was a Miao girl." ”

Yelu said with a smoke: "Hmm!"

Today, April 15, the whole city of Nanjing is shrouded in rain and fog. On the Purple Mountain, all the heroes of the rivers and lakes are gathering at the main altar of the martial arts alliance, either alone, or in twos and threes, or in groups of people from all walks of life.

The general altar of the leader of the alliance is set up on the top of the purple mountain, the terrain is extremely open, the main hall of the alliance sits in the north and faces south, the eaves and pavilions, the carved beams and painted buildings, the momentum is magnificent. Around the main hall, there are several side halls, which complement each other with the main hall, the red wall and yellow tile, the gold is brilliant. Looking around, there are ancient trees and green trees.

On the main entrance of the main hall, a huge plaque sprinkled with gold on a black background has four big characters written on it: "World Martial Arts". On the left and right, huge wooden boards with black backgrounds were hung, and a couplet was carved and sprinkled with gold dust. Shanglian is: "Thousands of miles of grand exhibition, heroes from all over the world." The following link is: "Legends are written like the wind, and myths are spread like rain." ”

Lan Gongpei, the leader of the alliance, was standing at the door of the main hall and looking into the distance, today was rainy again, and he had an ominous premonition. So he said to Qin Lang, the deputy alliance leader beside him: "I expect that Yelu Hanyan will definitely come today, we have to be more careful." ”

Qin Lang bowed slightly and hugged his fists and said: "Today, the heroes of the world are gathered here, if they really dare to come, they will definitely be unable to escape!"

Lan Gongpei was still extremely uneasy, and said, "It's better to be more careful!"

Qin Lang said again: "Alliance leader rest assured!"

At this time, Lan Yaqiu walked out of the side hall in the west, her lips were red without dotting, her eyebrows were green without painting, her long hair was draped over her shoulders, her pink dress was white, and she was as pretty as a peach in three springs. She glanced at the broad side of the main hall with her neck long, obviously a little disappointed, because Zhou Jinyu hadn't come up yet.

She walked up to Lan Gongpei and said, "Daddy, why haven't people come up yet?"

Lan Gongpei looked puzzled and asked, "Who did you say didn't come up?"

Only then did Lan Yaqiu realize that she had missed her mouth, and her face suddenly turned crimson, and she hurriedly covered it up: "Eh... I mean those who come to the Martial Arts Alliance. ”

Lan Gongpei smiled: "Hahaha, when did my Ya'er care about these things?"

Lan Yaqiu said: "I didn't care, I just asked casually, I'll go back to the room first." With that, he ran back to the side hall to the west.

Lan Gongpei saw that his daughter was behaving a little strangely today, so he smiled at Qin Lang and said, "My daughter is always reckless, I don't know what she thinks every day. ”

Qin Lang also smiled and said, "Haha, Ya'er has been lively and sharp since she was a child, and I also watched her grow up, so I'm used to it." ”

Lan Gongpei said: "Let her go, I'll go to the apse to change clothes, and you will take care of it here." ”

Qin Lang said: "Alliance leader, don't worry. ”

On the Purple Mountain, due to the drizzle on the road, the light skills of the knights of the rivers and lakes are limited, so it is much slower than usual. Zhou Jinyu himself is not known for his light skills, and he brought Lin Lei'er with him, and he has not yet reached the top of the mountain.

At this time, a group of monks wearing yellow monk's robes were hurriedly walking past Zhou Jinyu with wooden sticks in hand. At the head was an old abbot with a white beard and eyebrows, with a ruddy face and a strong spirit.

When Lin Lei'er saw the monk for the first time, she couldn't help but smile and said, "Oh, brother, look! What are these bald people here for?"

These words were heard by the monks who were going up the mountain, and several young disciples couldn't hold their breath and glared at Lin Lei'er.

Lin Lei'er was not easy to mess with, and said, "What are you bald people staring at me? Do I have flowers on my face?"

Lin Lei'er suddenly got into contact with the monk next to her, Zhou Jinyu was defenseless, she really didn't know what to do, and was about to step forward to apologize to the monks. At this time, the old abbot turned his head and said to the disciples, "Amitabha! This little benefactor must be talking unintentionally, and you should not be disturbed by such a trivial matter." ”

After listening to the old abbot's words, the monks behind him immediately clasped their hands together and said in unison, "Yes." Then he followed the old abbot up the hill.

After the monks left, Zhou Jinyu was angry and funny, and he feigned anger and said: "If you talk nonsense again, I don't want you to protect me!"

Lin Lei'er hurriedly said: "Then I won't speak." ”

didn't endure it for long, Lin Lei'er said again: "I think I'd better say something, otherwise you will be so lonely on the road." ”

Zhou Jinyu couldn't get angry with Lin Lei'er, shook her head with a smile and said, "You can still talk if you want to, but don't talk about people on the road casually." ”

Lin Lei'er nodded and said, "Okay." After speaking, he always felt that there was still something missing, and added: "Then brother, can I ask you a question?"

Zhou Jinyu said: "Ask." ”

Lin Lei'er said: "Why are their heads bald? Aren't they cold in winter?"

Zhou Jinyu had to explain: "They are monks, so they have to shave their heads, and you have to ask them if it's cold in winter." ”

Lin Lei'er asked again, "Then why did the monk shave his head?"

Zhou Jinyu was really asked, shook her head helplessly and said, "I don't know this either." ”

Lin Lei'er said: "Then Sister Xiao knows why?"

Zhou Jinyu was reminded by Lin Lei'er, and suddenly remembered Xiao Xiaotian, who she met on the outskirts of the city yesterday. Because Zhou Jinyu knew that 'Yelu' and 'Xiao' were the surnames of the Khitan nobles, he didn't want the woman yesterday to have anything to do with Yelu Hanyan, but thinking of Xiao Xiaotian's cold expression, he always unconsciously linked them.

Lin Lei'er saw that Zhou Jinyu was in a daze, so she urged: "Brother, answer my question quickly." ”

Zhou Jinyu said: "I don't know about this, if you see your sister Xiao again, just ask her yourself." ”

Lin Lei'er nodded and said thoughtfully, "Okay..."

At this time, there were gradually more people on the mountain, and all kinds of knights from all walks of life came up the mountain one after another, and from time to time masters of various sects walked past Zhou Jinyu and Lin Leier.

Lin Lei'er had seen too many strange people today, and she couldn't help but open her mouth again and asked, "Brother, are all these people here to participate in the alliance?"

Zhou Jinyu said: "Yes." What's wrong?"

Lin Leier said: "It's shameless!"

Zhou Jinyu was a little confused, and asked, "Sister Lei'er, which one are you scolding, won't you be scolding me?"

Lin Lei'er looked up at Zhou Jinyu and said, "What am I scolding you for?" You are a good person, you are much stronger than them. ”

Zhou Jinyu smiled: "Haha, then what's wrong with them?"

Lin Lei'er said: "These people all claim to be heroes of the rivers and lakes, why do so many people unite to deal with two people? I don't think this is what the heroes of the rivers and lakes should do." ”

Zhou Jinyu didn't know how to answer Lin Lei'er's words, thinking that she also wanted to take advantage of today's opportunity to take revenge, so she asked Lin Lei'er: "Then wouldn't I be so shameless?"

Lin Lei'er thought for a while and said, "Hmm... You're not like them. ”

Zhou Jinyu said: "Oh, then how am I different from them?"

Lin Lei'er said: "You want to take revenge alone, unlike them, who have been contacted in advance to deal with others." ”

Zhou Jinyu smiled, looking at Lin Lei'er's short hair that made the rain wet, and felt that the Miao girl in front of her really had a different thinking from ordinary people.

Lin Lei'er said again: "I think that if those two killers dare to come today, they will be the real knights." ”

Zhou Jinyu asked, "Then if I seek revenge on them, who will you help?"

Lin Lei'er said: "Of course it's to help you!"

Zhou Jinyu smiled: "Haha, how can you still help me with those two killers when you worship them so much?"

Lin Lei'er said: "Because I promised to protect you!"

While speaking, the two of them also arrived at the main altar of the alliance leader on the top of the Purple Mountain.
