Chapter 54: A Pair of Wind and Snow
Last night, Ning Xiao listened to Bai Xiaosheng talk about Zhang Youji's past, and realized that the purpose of his martial arts practice was not just to play, but to protect. After discussing with Lin Xi, Ning Xiao decided to go around Jiangbei as well. "The purpose of this trip is threefold. The first is to take a look at the lives of the people under the three factions in Jiangbei and find a way to make everyone live a good life!" Ning Xiao explained to Li Linxi his insistence on crossing the river to the north in the cold winter, "The second is to find the traces of Xiao Po, he worshiped the sage guild pretending to be the salvation society, and according to the news given by Uncle Bai Xiaosheng, he will be sent to the six major sects after the cultivation is over." We have visited the three factions in Jiangnan before, and we have never heard of anyone named Su Po. On this trip to Jiangbei, I will definitely be able to find news of him!"
"Then what's the third? Zhang Youji?" Li Linxi said with interest as he saw Ning smiling and talking.
"I don't care about him, I have a problem taking medicine and eating it, his whereabouts are erratic, why are I looking for a doctor if I am not sick!" Ning Xiao said.
Li Linxi's eyes blinked lightly, "Then tell me, what is the third for?"
Ning Xiao's face was slightly red, but he didn't hide his answer, "Third, it's to accompany you to find your life ......."
Li Linxi was silent for a long time, "How do you know that what I'm looking for is my background? When we first met, I told you that I was just looking for someone......
"I guess!" Ning Xiao Zhen said, "What kind of person is worthy of your search for all over the country? Your old friend? For many days, you have never mentioned any unfamiliar name, and it is obviously impossible to travel all over the country for a person who has not mentioned his name for a year!"
"Maybe that person is my lover!" Li Linxi argued to himself.
"Hehe...... "Ning Xiao looked at Li Linxi, smiling without saying a word.
"Okay, okay, I remember you said that you obviously walked all over the country to see the beautiful scenery of the world for yourself, so you have to do something with me!" Li Linxi was annoyed and ashamed, blew out the candle and slept in his clothes.
"So we're leaving tomorrow?"
"Hmm. ”
"Good night. ”
"Good night. ”
――――――――――――I'm the dividing line of snow――――――――――――
The first snow has arrived, and it is silent. Overnight, the town of Zhige was covered in silver and changed color. Ning Xiao, who had been lying on the table all night, stretched out after waking up. Li Linxi, who heard Ning Xiao's movements, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Ning Xiao vigilantly. Ning smiled and pushed open the window.
I couldn't see it when it snowed last night, but after Ning Xiao pushed open the window this morning, a snow country came into view. There was a vast expanse between heaven and earth, and every building in Zhige Town was covered with a thick layer of snow. It was still early, but there were already a few wisps of cooking smoke floating in the sky, and the smell of rice wafting in the air, mixed with the cool breeze of early winter, made Ning Xiao feel a hundred times more energetic.
Ning Xiao and Li Linxi packed their bags, had breakfast, said goodbye to the old people in an inn, ignored the business trips in the inn that complained that the snow was not at the right time, and the two of them left the warm inn and walked into a snowstorm.
At this time, the town really woke up, the cooking smoke gradually increased, and the old man at home sat on the threshold, with a glass of hot wine in his stomach, smiling and watching his grandson play in the snow. After serving hot wine to the old man, the daughter-in-law went to the kitchen to work on breakfast, while the man climbed onto the roof and swept away the snow. The family is happy, and the huge town of Zhige is orderly and lively.
Ning Xiao took Li Linxi's hand without the slightest reluctance and strolled away from Zhige Town. Occasionally, a child pointed to two people and laughed with his family. Li Linxi listened attentively, but couldn't help but giggle.
"Daddy, look at those two people, it's snowing and wearing so little, isn't it stupid?!" Li Linxi said in a mocky imitation of the child's words.
Ning Xiao was holding Li Linxi's hand, secretly feeling the girl's soft hand, and suddenly heard Li Linxi say this sentence without a head, and involuntarily repeated, "What? Are you stupid?"
When Li Linxi heard Ning Xiao's words, he frowned slightly, but he twisted the young man's waist flower, and in the young man's grinning voice for mercy, he attached it to Ning Xiao's ear and said, "Fool!
Ning Xiao and Li Linxi's cultivation of the "Seven Turns of the Returning Yuan" Qi Cultivation Method, because it runs on its own all the time, so the first thing is to comprehend, and the root bone qualification is not very demanding. In the same way, due to the internal force running on its own all the time, even if the cultivation of Qi is low, it can be regarded as invading the cold and heat. In fact, under this kind of cold weather, in order to keep out the cold, the speed of the Qi Cultivation Law in the two of them in the "Seven Turns of Guiyuan" was a little faster.
"Huh?" Hearing Li Linxi talk about internal strength, Ning Xiao remembered that he hadn't paid attention to his internal strength cultivation for a while. How can we say this kind of mentality? It is in line with the mentality of non-action, so the internal force actually grows rapidly, and the more you don't pay attention to it, the greater the progress. Or do stupid people have stupid blessings? The young man can do it if he wants to, he is distracted and sinks into his body, feeling the changes in the internal force in his body, he thought that his internal strength has improved slightly, but the actual situation makes Ning laugh lightly.
The total amount of internal force has increased a little, although it has increased a lot compared to ordinary people, but for the seven revolutions of Guiyuan that are constantly running automatically, the amount of internal force increase is decent. It's just that the speed of this internal force is a little slower than when I was at the beginning?
Ning Xiao told Li Linxi, who was more familiar with the exercises, "Is the speed at which your internal force is running normally now?" Hearing Ning Xiao's description, Li Linxi said speechlessly.
"It was obviously very fast before!" Ning Xiao was slightly curious in her heart.
"Didn't you say last night that practicing martial arts is for protection! There are obstacles, of course the practice is slow! The best state of practicing martial arts is when you were so simple-minded and distracted before~" Li Linxi patiently explained to Ning Xiao.
Ning Xiao listened to it and suddenly realized, but his expression of regret did not show any regret, "I see~ I thought I was a genius!"
Li Linxi had been secretly observing Ning Xiao's expression, and seeing that Ning Xiao did not express negative emotions such as regret, the girl quietly breathed a sigh of relief, "Idiot, you are just a fool and a fool!"
Ning Xiao replied with satisfaction: "It's enough to have such a period of time when you can quickly increase your strength, and things that are too easy to get will make people not cherish them very much." I am more sure of what I have worked so hard to achieve~"
"Then you practice every day!" Li Linxi mocked, not to be outdone.
In the midst of the quarrel, the two left the town of Zhige, crossed the river by boat from the town by ferry, and arrived on the north bank of the river. Ning Xiao noticed in a trance, I don't know if it was caused by the snow reflection, Li Linxi's white hair seemed to be more? Shaking his head and feeling that he was thinking too much, the two of them held hands and trekked through the wind and snow, and gradually were covered by the snow, and disappeared into the vast snow.
The plum fragrance is smelling, and the catkins are covered in dust. Two thousand miles north of the river, a pair of wind and snow.
