The two talked freely, although they were very proud, but in the end, it was due to the initial recovery from the injury and the fatigue of the car and horses for several days, and gradually felt tired, so Liu Baoan first lay down in his clothes, and after a while, Chen Xiuyuan also closed his eyes and meditated on the side.

In the middle of the night, Chen Xiuyuan suddenly heard the sound of the piano in the southwest direction, and the rhyme of the piano was cold. Then I heard a person singing with the piano, and the singing voice was clear and beautiful, and it was natural, and there were no lyrics. At first, the singing voice was very low, as if it was chattering in the ear, and when it was extremely low, it spiraled down again and again, until it was extremely low and very thin, almost like a filament, but it was still as distinct as a wisp.

Suddenly, the singing voice turned high, clear and more into the clouds, although it was extremely high but still continued to climb, strange to say, at this time although the singing is high-pitched but never harsh, people still feel mellow, restrained, long-term, it seems that the person who composed the song has a feeling, true feelings, but never publicity.

After a while, the singing turned sharply again, giving people the feeling of flying straight down, and then gradually stopped, but it was still ethereal like a self-lost fishing flute, as if separated from the clouds and water, as if the night fog carried a thousand sorrows.

Chen Xiuyuan was touched by the singing, and immediately felt stunned, and when the singing stopped, he still felt that the aftermath was lingering, as if in a dream. At this time, Liu Baoan had also woken up, but Chen Xiuyuan had only one thought in his heart: I don't know when I will have such a special fate again, and I can listen to that person sing again!

Liu Baoan suddenly saw Chen Xiuyuan walking to the window bar in a daze as if he had lost his soul, then opened the window, jumped up, and flew out. Shocked, he hurriedly rushed to the window, only to see that one of his green shadows disappeared into the night in an instant, his back shrank into a black spot, and he said from afar: "Big brother, rest in peace, I'll go to explore and go back!" Liu Baoan saw that although he was speaking, his feet were still running towards the southwest without stopping, he shook his head slightly, and relaxed his heart slightly.

Although it was already spring, it was still cold in the middle of the night in the south of the Yangtze River.

Although Chen Xiuyuan was thinly clothed at this time, he was unconscious, and began to walk through the streets and alleys of the town. Occasionally, I looked up and saw a round of eyebrow moon in the sky, the moonlight sprinkled, the big lake in front of me was sparkling, and several weeping willows were planted on a green green space on the shore of the lake. There was a canopy moored in the middle of the lake, and two blue gauze lanterns hung from the bow, but there was no one sitting in the bow under the light.

When Chen Xiuyuan gradually got closer, he hesitated in his heart, thinking why he was suddenly so frivolous today, and ran here for no reason, between the stars and nights, how could he ask that person to play the piano and compose a song for himself again?

At this moment, a clear female voice in the boat said: "The concubine is here alone at night to play the piano and chat for self-entertainment, I don't want to disturb Your Excellency's listening!"

When Chen Xiuyuan heard this, this voice was the head of Lu, and he was overjoyed, and said loudly: "Is the head of Lu here?" The woman in the boat first sighed softly, and then said: "Ah, it turned out to be Chen Gongzi, it is the little sister, but we have already spoken in advance, you don't have to call me Lu Zhangmen, I am tired of hearing the head of the house, my sister or something on weekdays, just call me Miss Lu!"

Chen Xiuyuan walked towards Lu through the canopy and said: "Okay, Miss Lu, you ......" There seemed to be a thousand words and questions in his heart, but at this time, after the word "you", he didn't know how to phrase it for a while.

I could only hear a chuckle coming from the canopy, and although the laughter was soft, it was indescribably pleasant. After laughing, he saw a person slowly walking out of the canopy, Chen Xiuyuan was shocked when he saw it, and secretly exclaimed: "It's so beautiful!"

I saw that she was slender and slender, wearing a light cyan long dress, her skin was like clotted fat, and she had moth eyebrows. The corners of a pair of beautiful eyes are slightly raised, and there is a faint cinnabar between the eyebrows. Although it is beautiful and vulgar, it is as warm as jade, and there is no sense of compelling.

Lu Man saw him staring at him blankly, his face turned red, and he had to bow to the bow of the ship, and said: "Ten days ago, I hurriedly said goodbye to the apricot forest, Chen Gongzi, you ...... Are all the injuries healed?"

Chen Xiuyuan hadn't come back to his senses yet, and was stunned: "It's Miss Lu, are you stroking the piano and singing?" Lu Man pursed his lips and smiled, this smile was even more like a spring flower, two clear and bright eyes in his eyes shone on his face, but he only said lightly: "Exactly, let Chen Gongzi smile." ”

Chen Xiuyuan saw that she was beautiful and incomprehensible, and because of this, he was ashamed of himself, and he didn't dare to say anything more, thinking: What's wrong with me? Hurriedly turned his head and didn't dare to look at Lu Man again, but in this way, he seemed quite deliberate, and he felt even more embarrassed for a while.

At this time, Lu Man raised his head and looked at the night sky, and did not look at him again.

After a while, Chen Xiuyuan couldn't help but follow her gaze, but saw a large dark cloud floating in the northeast corner. When the sky was really unpredictable, the clouds gathered very quickly, and in a short time they covered the moon, and a gust of wind blew, and they scattered fine raindrops. Although the rain was not heavy, after a long time, both of them were already wet, and then Lu Man suddenly said: "Please get on the boat to avoid the rain." Chen Xiuyuan said with a "ahh As soon as she told her to get on the boat, she didn't have time to jump on the bow of the boat, and when the boat boarded, it sank slightly, and Lu Man hurriedly turned to the side and let him into the cabin first, and then he followed into the cabin.

As soon as Chen Xiuyuan entered the narrow cabin, he was even more restrained, and secretly regretted in his heart: Although it is said that his own gentleman does not deceive the dark room, the two of us are alone in this cabin, but I am afraid that Miss Lu's name will be tired.

Lu Man pointed to a seat next to him and said, "Young Master Chen, please take a seat." When Chen Xiuyuan heard this, he had to sit down again.

There is a small stove on the low table in the cabin, a bean candle in the furnace is boiling tea, Lu Man's white jade hand lifted the purple sand fine porcelain teapot on the stove and poured a cup of tea, handed it to him, and said: "In the middle of the night, the guests come to replace the tea with wine, and there is no wine in the boat, so I have to serve a cup of tea." Chen Xiuyuan bowed and said, "Thank you!" hurriedly stretched out his hand to take it. Chen Xiu saw that the soup was green and quiet, and the fragrance was overflowing, and a thin bud in the cup floated on it, and he raised his glass and gently took a sip in his mouth, which was even more refreshing. Chen Xiuyuan couldn't help but praise: "Miss Lu, you are so interested!"

Lu Manqiao's face was slightly red, like a touch of crimson in the white jade, and said with a smile: "It's really embarrassing, the first time I met my son in the forest that day, it was to fight with someone...... Chen Xiuyuan couldn't help laughing: "It's just a fight, it's even a knife, but Miss Lu, your swordsmanship is really handsome, it's so admirable!" Lu Man saw him praise himself, his heart was happy, and he laughed softly: " Childe teased, in fact, that is also the first time I have taken someone seriously, Chen Gongzi, your palm is also very tight, I haven't thanked you for showing mercy to the little girls and their subordinates" After that, he suddenly said "oops", got up and lit a small charcoal stove, and said: "The spring cold is steep, and the child's clothes and shoes are wet, but don't catch the wind cold, please roast it." At this time, the spring rain outside the tent came obliquely, and the wind and rain were mixed, so Lu Man got up again and closed the rear cabin door, and then Yingying returned to his seat.

Chen Xiuyuan roasted the charcoal fire for a while and said, "Miss Lu, you can also roast it." Lu Man shook his head gently, smiled slightly, and after a little dive of internal strength, white smoke curled around his body, and the moisture on his clothes was immediately clean. Chen Xiuyuan praised: "Admire! Good ability!"

At this time, Lu Man said again: "Son, are all the injuries on your body healed?" Chen Xiuyuan's chest was hot, and he arched his hand and said: "Thank you girl, it's all right, and thanks to the girl's secret care along the way, I thanked Miss Lu for my brother's virtue first." Lu Man raised the teacup at this time, took a sip, and said: "That's good, Childe doesn't have to thank me, these are all what my Emei faction should do, but there have been a few people on the road in the past ten days who want to attack Liu Yetai, but they were all secretly sent away by me, and please don't be weird about the things in the forest that night!"

Chen Xiuyuan thought to himself that the Emei women under your door really came for the eldest brother's heavenly order that night, but at this time, it was not good to take the liberty to mention this matter again, so as not to be embarrassed, and said: "I won't mention it in the past, and he didn't mean to be surprised by the eldest brother, and I ask Miss Lu not to linger anymore." Thinking of Liu Baoan, Chen Xiuyuan suddenly thought in his heart: I haven't returned here for a long time, I don't know if my eldest brother is safe?

Lu Man observed the words, and when a pair of bright and clear eyes looked at Chen Xiuyuan's face, he understood his intentions, and said: "Chen Gongzi don't worry, I have let them all be scattered around Liu Yetai, and if there is any abnormality, come and tell me quickly." ”

Chen Xiuyuan was grateful, and he bowed his hand again: "Thank you Miss Lu for your kindness, my eldest brother and I will repay you in the future!"

Lu Man said softly: "Childe doesn't need to thank me, this is just to let them make up for their mistakes a little, Childe and Liu Yetai Pingshui can meet each other for thousands of miles, this is very rare, righteous and thin." ”

Chen Xiuyuan suddenly sighed and said: "This time I accompanied my eldest brother to walk like this, I really had to do it, today I had a long howl in the original, I must have seen Miss Lu too, it's not that I intend to show my martial arts, in fact, I just think that the injury has healed, and I can't say anything about burying my head in this way to avoid people...... It's just that the thought that it might put the eldest brother in danger because of this, I can't care about that much. ”

Lu Man understood his intentions, and said softly with relief: "I understand, the eldest husband can bend and stretch, but he doesn't have to be brave, it is very rare that you can wronged yourself so much for others." ”

Chen Xiuyuan was hot in his chest again, and he felt like a confidant in his heart. I saw Lu Man sitting opposite him, as if he was in a dream. When Chen Xiuyuan was stunned, Lu Man also didn't say a word, and sat quietly opposite him, as if listening to the sound of rain outside the boat.

After half a ring, Chen Xiuyuan suddenly said: "I don't know what happened to Senior Xia's injury, I have missed it very much since we separated." Lu Man replied: "It turns out that you ...... It's been missing Senior Xia......" At this time, the two of them were slightly red on their faces, glanced at each other, and then hurriedly turned their eyes away, just this glance, both of them read a trace of faint affection in each other's eyes, but in addition, the eyes of the two immediately turned to melancholy, it turned out that both of them remembered what Xia Changying said to Ning Youcheng before leaving, and thought of a dispute between the Asahi Sect and the Huashan Sect in the future. But this thought was only fleeting, and then the hearts of the two of them turned to joy and peace, and they only thought that the longer this time was as long as possible, and the longer this rain fell, the better.
