(25) In the middle of the night, guests come to tea as wine, and it is light overnight until dawn (2)
Lu Man heard him mention Xia Changying, thinking that Chen Xiuyuan was enthusiastic and affectionate, that Xia Changying was so arrogant and for no reason that he slapped him into a serious injury and almost died, not only did he not complain and resentful in his heart, but he immediately stepped forward to help that day, and at this time, he was even more obsessed and thought about others everywhere, and he was even happier in his heart. smiled and said: "Gongzi Chen, you are a Shaolin disciple, don't you know that good and evil are not mutually exclusive, then Mr. Xia is a big man in the cult, why is Gongzi worried about him?"
Chen Xiuyuan's face turned red and said: "No, it's not a Shaolin disciple, but although the predecessor of Naxia is not a righteous man and gentleman, in my opinion, he is a hero and a hero, and he can be regarded as a bright and upright husband." I also know that I shouldn't have too much contact with people in the cult, but it seems that I can't generalize and forcibly divide factions. ”
Although Lu Man is the head of Emei, she only feels that this is because she was entrusted by her teacher on his deathbed, so she is in charge of the Emei portal. Although he knows that he has a heavy responsibility and is a big responsibility, he is quite protective of the doorman on weekdays, but he doesn't think it's a big deal. At this time, I heard him say "don't generalize and forcibly divide factions", nodded to him, and thought: He does not regard himself as a famous and decent family, and he is not limited to the views of secular factions.
Lu Man pondered for a moment and said: "That day, in the apricot forest, you spoke up twice and helped me. ”
Chen Xiuyuan hurriedly said: "Miss Lu, your martial arts are unfathomable, why use me to meddle in things and useless beaks, it's really the bottom of the well." He added: "But if you don't have such skills, you can't make such a song if you want to, Dayin Xisheng, Miss Lu, you deserve it." ”
Lu Man smiled and said: "Ah, let's stop praising each other like this! Shicai is just a feeling, and if you don't see anyone, don't make fun of it." Then a naughty and cunning look suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he chuckled: "Childe, do you wash your face?"
When Chen Xiuyuan heard her ask, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed, and then he remembered that the yellow mud and black soil that had been smeared on his face in the past few days had not been washed away. At this time, I saw her sitting opposite her with a smile, bright and beautiful, indescribable, and suddenly I was even more ashamed of myself for some reason.
At this time, he suddenly heard Huan Peiyu's voice, and it turned out that Lu Man suddenly got up, thinking that he wanted to prepare a towel for him to wash his face. As soon as she got up, the jade she was wearing suddenly made a faint sound, and Chen Xiuyuan hurriedly said, "Don't work girl." He stretched out his right sleeve and wiped it on his face, and he wiped the mud off his face.
Lu Man's eyes showed a clear and handsome face, with long eyebrows and sideburns, and his eyes were like stars, but his face was pale and slightly haggard. Lu Manqiao's face flushed, thinking that he was so handsome and clear.
At this time, the two were not far apart, and Chen Xiuyuan faintly smelled a faint fragrance emanating from Lu Man's body, and couldn't help but feel a wave in his heart.
Lu Man groaned slightly, and immediately returned to his seat, but Yingying turned around and took down a hanging long sword from the bulkhead, and said, "Chen Gongzi, you brought this sword to defend yourself." I didn't see Childe wearing a blade when I met twice, and the sword was a gift to the hero, but this sword used to be a sword of the ancestors, although it was now passed on to my hands, but I'm afraid it's still inconvenient to give it away, so I'll lend it to Childe this time. ”
Chen Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment, and said: "No merit is not rewarded, this sword was once a respected teacher's sword, it must be a treasure of Emei, or Miss Lu, you should take it." ”
Lu Man said softly: "I'm a little worried about you going." Chen Xiuyuan smiled: "What are you worried about?" Lu Man blushed again and said, "I can't say it, I just feel that the heavenly machine is mysterious and unpredictable, so you still bring this sword to defend yourself." ”
Chen Xiuyuan's heart suddenly moved, and then his heart was overjoyed, and he thought: Could it be that she actually has the meaning of "token"? At this time, Lu Man shouted: "Next!" Gently throwing the long sword over, Chen Xiuyuan caught the sword body, and his chest was hot again, thinking: Why did she treat me so well, and she was so relieved, and even lent me this Emei heavy weapon.
Chen Xiuyuan took a closer look, it turned out to be an ancient sword more than three feet long, although the sword body was plain, but it faintly emitted a layer of green energy, and the sword was not out of the sheath, so it was already conceivable that it was extraordinary. Gently pulling out the blade, there was a chill in the cabin, and I saw two small seals engraved on the blade, but it was the word "Suni".
Chen Xiuyuan couldn't help but praise: "Sword!" waved his hand, but heard Lu Man hurriedly shouting: "Childe, be careful!" Chen Xiuyuan hurriedly put away the sword, but it was already too late at this time, but he heard a soft sound of "snort", the sword blade crossed, and there was no obstacle at all, and the short table in the boat had been cut off a corner, and the profile was extremely smooth, and there was no sawdust raised.
Chen Xiuyuan couldn't help but stick out his tongue and said, "It's amazing!" Lu Man smiled slightly and said: "If Gongzi swings this sword, the sword qi will be everywhere, and he will have to lift this canopy." And said: "Childe doesn't know, just because the sword is too sharp, it is because the ancestor has not moved for many years in his old age, and I don't like it to be very easy to hurt people at every turn, this sword has not been out of the box for a long time, it has been lonely for a long time, and it just came in handy this time...... Defend your son. ”
At this time, Chen Xiuyuan suddenly said: "I went down the mountain in a hurry this time, but unfortunately I didn't bring anything good with me to give you, but it will not be easy for a character like you to find something that is enough to match." ”
Lu Man's eyes suddenly flashed with a strange look, under the reflection of the candle flame in the boat, his cheeks were delicate, his head shook slightly, and he smiled silently.
Chen Xiuyuan couldn't put it down with the "Su Ni Sword", and after a while, he tied it to his belt, and the two sat down again. At this time, the two have become much closer for some reason, and the two talked very speculatively, and they forgot for a long time, not knowing the passage of time. Chen Xiuyuan said: "The respected teacher is called the 'sewing needle jade girl', my teacher once talked to me in the past, saying that the respected teacher and her old man are said to have entered the Tao. Senior Xia also said that her old man taught the heroes to tie her hands with just two embroidery needles, and she no longer needed this sword, but she didn't know how her martial arts were superb, can you tell me something?"
Lu Man thought of his late master at this time, tears filled his eyes, he sat on his knees, muttered for a long time, and said: "Alas, I don't know if her old man has entered the Tao, but her old man is worthy of the words 'heroine among women'...... And since her old man took over the Emei faction, it has made the Emei faction proud and famous in the martial arts, and it is not something that can be admired by martial arts alone......"
Chen Xiuyuan imagined the heroic style of the "Needle Jade Girl", and couldn't help but listen to it leisurely. Lu Man saw a look of admiration and reverence in his eyes, understood his intentions, and rejoiced in his heart.
Chen Xiu saw her from afar, knowing that she was because she remembered her ancestor in her heart, and did not want to make her sad again, and he didn't dare to ask the "Needle Jade Girl" for a while How could she suddenly pass away from the immortal and pass the position of head to her, a young woman.
After a while, Lu Man took out a light green handkerchief, wiped his tears, and said: "Actually, she is my aunt, she roamed for half her life, she has never been married in her life, and then she couldn't find a suitable candidate to take over the head of Emei...... It's just that I'm the only daughter in the family, and my father and mother don't allow it, but the first teacher always comes to tell my father that when I was six years old, my father finally couldn't grind her soft words, and agreed to let the first teacher take me to Emei......"
Chen Xiuyuan said "um" and said: "This is the same for us, I also left home at the age of ten to study art in the South Shaolin Temple. ”
At this time, Lu Man suddenly sighed softly and said: "Life is like morning dew, like a white horse passing through a gap, like a dream bubble, like dew and electricity...... In the blink of an eye, her old man has passed away, and I have been on Emei for more than ten years......" said as he reached out and pulled out the small hosta from his hair and played with it in his hand, holding the hosta's hand, it was so white that it was no different from the hosta, like white jade, almost transparent. After a while, Lu Man said again: "Master passed this hosta to me, and since then the burden on my shoulders is very heavy, alas, look at what I am doing all this, I don't know why I will tell you so much today, you shouldn't be annoyed, right?"
Chen Xiuyuan hurriedly waved his hands and said, "No, no, how can I be annoyed, I can always be like this!" Lu Man was already quite emotional when he heard his words, and his face was flushed, and the two of them didn't know what to say for a while, and the red charcoal fire in the small furnace roasted the two of them warmly.
But both of them were affectionate and polite, Chen Xiuyuan was even more open-minded, and said what he thought, then turned around and said: "If you don't be the head of this Emei, you can play the piano and sing every day...... You...... You were born like a celestial being, and you should live that free life......"
At this time, Lu Manqiao's face was flat, and the two clear and bright eyes in his eyes shone on his face, seeing that what he said was very sincere, knowing that he was praising himself from the heart, it was no wonder, he shook his head slightly, and didn't say anything anymore, and his heart was sweet and happy and helpless and bitter for a while.
The two of them met by chance, and their eyes were full of fate so short, and there was no banquet in the world, I hope this moment will be long until the world is old......
