The water of the Crescent Moon Lake meanders along the mountain. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The pebbles glowed dimly in the faint moonlight.

The water washes over the pebbles, playing a crisp sound, in this quiet valley, especially pleasant.

I followed the dead leaves all the way to a big tree before stopping.

Xia Chen looked left and right, and found any houses there, even if it was a thatched house, he didn't see it.

Just as I was about to ask what the withered leaves were going to do, the withered leaves made a dozen strokes and waved their arms.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"

After three sounds, lanterns lit up in different directions on the big tree, and there were five of them.

Then the light of the lantern, Xia Chen saw the scene in front of him clearly!

On top of this big tree, there is a wooden house!

In front of the house was a ladder that ran from the doorway to the ground, and on either side of the ladder were railings made of vines.

Two of the five lanterns were placed on the left side of the balustrade, two on the right side of the balustrade, and the remaining two were hung on the door of the hut.

led Xia Chen up the ladder, then opened the wooden door and walked into the wooden house.

In the same way, as soon as the dead leaves are struck, the room is lit up. However, this time, the light did not come from the lantern, but from several swords hanging vertically. These swords are only about a foot long, and although the swords are short, they are also exquisite.

The sword light was no weaker than the flame of the lantern, so Xia Chen could clearly see the situation in the house through the sword light.

Although the furnishings inside are simple, they are also neat.

A shelf, a table, and a few stools are the layout of the outside space. The wooden house has two spaces, the outhouse and the inner room are separated by a wooden wall. A door opens to the right of the wooden wall, and there is a window on the wooden wall half a foot away from the door. Through the doors and windows, you can see that there is a bed inside, so Xia Chen judged that the inner room is the bedroom of the dead leaves.

Withered Leaf led Xia Chen into the back room and ordered, "Put Master Zhou's nephew on the bed." ”

Xia Chen put Zhou Hongyu on the bed, and the withered leaves took her pulse.

After a while, the withered leaf stroked his beard and said, "The pulse is stable, and the qi and blood are smooth. ”

Hearing the words of the dead leaves, Xia Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's not that her strength is damaged because of the painstaking effort, maybe it's the mysterious aura in your body that repairs her damage. Withered Leaf speculated.

"Perhaps, that's why I haven't forgotten the fairy. Xia Chen continued, thought about it, and asked, "Since the fairy is fine, why did he faint?"

Withered Leaf shook his head and said, "Everything has a process, before she fainted just now, the situation was not good, even more so than you! ”

Xia Chen nodded slightly, he was looking at Zhou Hongyu face to face just now, before she fainted, her complexion was not very good, haggard, weak, distressing.

"When will the fairy wake up?" Xia Chen looked at Zhou Hongyu and asked.

"It's possible to wake up later, or it's possible to wake up tomorrow morning, but it won't wake up. Withered Leaf said to Xia Chen like a tongue twister.

Xia Chen scratched the back of his head.

"Let her rest, let's go to the outhouse. The withered leaf walked out with his hands behind his back.

Xia Chen took a deep look at Zhou Hongyu before turning around and walking to the outhouse.

Dead Leaf took a jar of wine and two bowls from the shelf, as well as a bag of unhulled peanuts.

Wine again!

"Sit down. Withered Leaf beckoned, and sat down.

Arching his hand at the dead leaves, Xia Chen sat opposite the dead leaves.

I wanted to take the wine jar from the withered leaves and pour the wine for the withered leaves, but the withered leaves moved lightly before he started, and the wine jar actually left the withered leaves' hands, and then automatically filled the bowl in front of Xia Chen with wine, and then poured the bowl in front of the withered leaves.

Looking at this scene, Xia Chen was dumbfounded.

"Did the seniors use a trick?"

Withered Leaf smiled and said, "It's just a trivial matter, where can you use a trick to obstruct your eyes, it's just a matter of controlling things." ”

After this period of edification, Xia Chen is no longer the original novice.

He arched his hand and said with admiration: "The seniors' ability to control things is so superb, and the younger generations admire it." ”

"Do you want to learn?"

"Huh?"

Xia Chen's expression froze, thinking that he had heard it wrong!

You know, I'm not a disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect.

"Do you want to learn?" Withered Leaf picked up the bowl, took a sip of wine, and asked again.

Xia Chen straightened his body and said, "The juniors know that the exercises of each sect are not passed on, if the seniors teach me, aren't you afraid of violating the door rules?" Then Xia Chen waved his hand and said, "Although the juniors want to learn very much, the juniors are not disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect, and they can't embarrass the seniors, so it's better not to learn." ”

The withered leaf peeled a peanut, and then said with a smile: "Do you know why the old man is here in Sword Valley?"

How did Xia Chen know, he shook his head.

Withered Leaf gave Xia Chen a peanut that he had peeled, and said: "The old man violated too many door rules when he was young, so after the death of a senior immortal who guarded Sword Valley, I came here, because here, I am not bound by the door rules, only those who come to Sword Valley are restricted." ”

"I didn't expect my predecessors to be temperamental when they were young. Xia Chen smiled, thought about it, and asked, "Since the seniors like freedom, why don't they travel the world?"

"The task is not yet complete. Withered Leaf put the peanuts in his mouth and chewed them, saying.

"Still have a mission?" Xia Chen was puzzled.

"It's inconvenient to talk about this matter, please forgive me. Withered Leaf put down the bowl and said.

"Juniors understand. Xia Chen picked up the bowl, held it up with both hands, and said respectfully to the withered leaves, "Thank you seniors for saving your lives today, this bowl of wine, the juniors respect you!"

With that, he snorted and smothered his stomach with a full sip of wine.

"Good wine!"

"If it's good, drink more!" "Withered Leaves poured more wine for Xia Chen, "It's rare to meet someone who makes the old man fall in love." Then he saluted Xia Chen with a bowl of wine.

Returning to the question just now, Withered Leaf asked, "You don't think about this art of controlling things?"

Xia Chen hurriedly waved his hand: "Thank you seniors for your kindness, the juniors are grateful, and it is related to the reputation and rewards and punishments of the seniors, so the juniors still don't learn." ”

Withered Leaf smiled, lowered his voice, and said in a low voice: "Then if the old man says that this method of controlling things is not the method of the Heavenly Sword Sect, can you learn it?"

Xia Chen was stunned, and suddenly didn't react to the words of the dead leaves.

Looking at his puzzled expression, Withered Leaf said: "The old man's method of controlling things was given by a master by chance back then, and it was not the method of the Heavenly Sword Sect. ”

Xia Chen frowned and said, "There are many disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect, why didn't the seniors teach this method to the disciples in the sect?"

The withered leaf took a sip of wine, stroked his beard and said, "Because, there is a sentence written on the last page of this method of controlling things!"
