Section 48 Snowflakes
Yue Guhan's life has always been very regular.
Different from the unique dissolute life of swordsmen in the imagination of ordinary people, as the best swordsman in this martial arts, the life of Yue Gu Han of the Chengtian Sword Sect has always been very regular.
Drink very little alcohol, eat less oil, salt and spicy food, and fall asleep before midnight every night.
Even in an agricultural era, Yue Guhan's life can be described as very boring.
Today, as usual, after a simple dinner of corn porridge and small pickles with white buns, Yue Guhan read the book for a while, and then prepared to change his clothes and go to bed.
The old butler brought a copper basin filled with hot water and a hand towel, bayberry wood and green salt for brushing his teeth.
"There have been a lot of rumors on the rivers and lakes lately, and a lot of them are about you. The old housekeeper put the copper basin aside, and Yue Guhan put his hand into it, the water temperature was just right.
"Isn't that normal?"
"There is news from Taiping Road, saying that something has been lost in Beijing, and they want to ask you to help find it......
Yue Guhan looked up at the old housekeeper, this old man had been with him for decades, and the Chengtian Sword Sect had not hidden anything from him.
Including that Dan.
"They're upset that you broke your promise. ”
The old housekeeper grunted, and then moved the copper basin away, Yue Guhan had already washed his hands and was wiping his face and neck with a towel.
"Then make them unhappy. By the way, what's going on with your boss?"
The old housekeeper has four children, two boys and two women, and the eldest committed an accident some time ago, and was sent to prison to close the Yamen.
"Using your name to show the golden-faced owl the scene, it seems to be a gambling shop. No matter what, I can be regarded as Grandmaster Yue's old buddy, looking at your face, those people on the rivers and lakes always have to give him some face. The stupid man of the golden-faced owl didn't know which way he offended the immortals, and the fields everywhere were lifted a lot by that Lord Li, and the boss of my family was a fool, so he was involved and locked up for a month, and he was released to Li Shen. ”
"Nothing, right?"
The old housekeeper lowered his head, he knew that Yue Guhan was essentially a very indifferent and ruthless person, and on the surface, he was very good to the people around him like a spring breeze, but Yue Guhan's concern often only stopped at verbal greetings.
"It's nothing, Li Shen arranged an errand for him to be in the prison envoy, and it would be good to save himself from being driven by waste like the golden-faced owl. ”
"You wanted him to take care of me for you, but I didn't agree. Yue Guhan lowered his head: "I'm just such a small courtyard, it's enough to have you alone, there is no need to waste such a manpower, but fortunately, Li Shen is also a person with lively eyes, and the boss of your family has finally achieved a positive result." ”
As he was talking, there was a gentle knock on the courtyard door.
"I'll open the door,......," the old housekeeper said, and was about to turn his head, but was stopped by Yue Guhan.
"You go to the sword room and bring me my ice. ”
The old man was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
Yue Guhan's small courtyard is nothing remarkable, but it is a commonly used thing in ordinary people's homes, and the most valuable thing is probably that the copper basin is still a little catty, and it should be able to get a lot of money.
There is only one room that is different, that room was originally used to accumulate salary, and later changed to a sword room to collect swords, which collected all kinds of famous swords obtained by Yue Guhan walking the rivers and lakes.
Some are bronze swords found by Captain Touching Jin from the remnants of the ancient tomb, some are legendary soldiers left by the sages of the rivers and lakes, and some are sharp blades forged by Yue Guhan himself.
The Ice Drinking Sword is forged by Yue Gu Han himself, and the Chengtian Sword Sect has traveled all over the world to visit the famous sword casters, and has also found the casting method of Dongying, Tianzhu, Dashi and other places to study, it took seven years, and finally achieved something, and the furnace was based on the meteorite iron outside the sky to cast the famous weapon of eleven cutting gold and jade.
At that time, Yue Guhan's friend Liu Ziyue commented: "Ten years of drinking ice, the dragon light into the marrow." So this first sword was named "Drinking Ice".
After casting the sword, Yue Guhan finally realized the wonder of "hiding the edge", and since then he has abandoned the sword and rarely used the blade against the enemy, and these eleven sharp blades are also hanging in the sword, so he lies quietly in the sword room.
The old housekeeper knew that if he wanted to take out such a sharp blade today, he was afraid that his own famous and contemporary head of the family would encounter some insurmountable hurdles in his life. With his hands and feet nimble, he ran to the door of the sword room in small steps, pushed open the door, and took out a sword wrapped in a brocade bag from it and ran back.
Yue Guhan was standing in the middle of the small courtyard at this time, his eyes already closed.
"Sir. The old butler bowed his head and bent over, lifting the ice above his head, and Yue Guhan gently stretched out his hand to pick it up.
"Go open the door. ”
At this command, the old butler went outside and opened the door, and saw a man kneeling at the door of his house, not knowing what the way it came from.
"My lord is invited. ”
The old housekeeper looked at this person kneeling at the door of Yue's house, he didn't know how many such people he had seen, and they all knelt lightly at the door like this, as if as long as he knelt, he should have something in return.
In fact, the knees of many men in this world are not very valuable, but they are paranoid and regarded as a treasure that is not easy to find.
"Please also binge the Chengtian swordsman, Taiping Dao Bai Xiaosheng did not dare to trample on Fang Ting, so he waited outside the door. ”
The old housekeeper frowned, he knew about the troubles of his own master and Taiping Dao, and he also knew that Yue Guhan had broken his promise some time ago, not only demolished other people's temples but also robbed other people's things, and handed over other people's magic secrets to the emperor.
After discussing this matter carefully, in the eyes of the old housekeeper, there is probably something wrong with the Yue family.
"Is he here?" Yue Guhan walked to the door with the Ice Drinking Sword in his right hand, looking at Bai Xiaosheng who was kneeling on the ground, the Sword Sect's eyes showed a wonderful look.
"Exactly, the Dao Sage wants to leave the Pill in the Hate Ding, and he also asks the Sword Sect to complete it, so that the younger generation can also have an explanation when he goes back. ”
"Where is he?" Yue Guhan raised his head and looked in the direction of Jianghou Temple: "Is it in Jianghou Temple?" ”
"Yes, he said to wait for the pill in Jianghou Temple. ”
Yue Guhan took a step forward and left Bai Xiaosheng, who was kneeling on the ground, behind him.
"Seniors, the Taoist saint is in Jiang Hou Temple, he is now in the realm of perfection, and he also asks the seniors to cultivate obscurity, hide the sword and hide the edge, and the younger generations must rely on the seniors to get out of trouble, and the seniors must not be reckless. ”
There are many implications between Taiping Dao and Dao Sheng, and there are also many implications between them and other Jianghu figures.
In Bai Yujing on a winter night, the air is extremely cold.
Yue Gu Han's footsteps stopped, he suddenly raised his head, and a little snowflake was falling on the sky.
Bai Yujing is snowing.
"He was in the Jianghou Temple. Yue Guhan said in a low voice.
"Since he's here, why can't I go?"
Yue Guhan left, Bai Xiaosheng's head was still low on the ground, and at this moment, he didn't know what he was thinking.
Is it looking forward to the Dao Sage raising his noble hand to gently let himself go, and forgiving the Taiping Dao's mistake of losing the Dao weapon, or is it looking forward to Yue Gu Han's great power to kill the Dao Sage with the demeanor of the first person in the world in a hundred years, ending the nightmare that has entangled him for nearly a lifetime.
Bai Xiaosheng had mixed feelings in his heart.
When the snow fell on the Jianghou Temple, Yue Guhan took the same size of each step, and walked towards the Jianghou Temple step by step. Li Xu raised his head and saw a person floating in the air.
On the side of the courtyard wall of Jianghou Temple is a slip of water eaves dripping tiles, one of the tiles stands a person, his face is young, but he shows the vicissitudes of life, he stands on the top of the courtyard wall a foot in the air, like a fairy looking at Li Xu, his eyes are full of a sense of exploration.
Li Xu walked out of the Jianghou Temple and looked at him.
At this time, a little snowflake fell from the sky.
