Chapter 10: Reappointment
In the spring of blowing flowers and small buildings, the flowers are luxuriant, and the warblers are dancing. On the shore of the Little Mirror Lake. Several bamboo houses stand tall and ten, about 100 steps away from the bamboo houses, and a field is full of colorful flowers.
A thin man holds a wooden bucket in one hand and a bamboo ladle in the other, and pours a scoop of clean water under the flower tree. He is not in a hurry, and his demeanor is exposed, which is not as good as a hundred women. The breeze passed, and occasionally a few petals of flowers fell on his bundled hair.
While watering the flowers, he also recited a small poem:
Seeing that the flowers are the fruits,
The red desire turns into fruit and decays first.
Sigh that there is no sweetness here,
If you want to taste peach and plum, you need to plant yourself.
Falling flowers are full of flowers,
The remnant red is vaguely open to the sun.
Xuanwai Xiaoxie Linapricot Blossom,
Randy red flew over the small pavilion.
When he finished reading, another young man came over with two pots of flowers and said, "Master, I brought the gentleman red you wanted." ”
The man looked at it, the two pots of flowers were as red as blood, without any variegation, and they were really good gentleman red, so he said: "Xiao Feng, put them in the flower room, remember, you must not use ordinary water to irrigate, you must use morning dew to irrigate, so that the brewed tea will be refreshing and sweet, and the taste will be delicious." ”
Xiao Feng said "Okay" and went to the secret room where the master hid the flowers. After putting the flowers away, Xiao Feng walked back and said, "Master, I'll help you water the flowers." ”
The man said: "No need, planting flowers is not as good as making a sword, flowers have their own temperament, there are those who like yin, there are those who like the sun, there are those who like rain, and there are those who like to dry, if you can't hold the fire, a pot of flowers will wither, even if you can survive by luck, its value will fall sharply." As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a crisp and pleasant sound from the jade ring around his waist. Hua Wenliu raised his head and looked at the sky, looked at it for a long time, and showed an inexplicable look on his face, and said: "Today, when the purple qi comes from the east, there will be distinguished guests." Xiao Feng, you go to Dongfeng Pavilion to greet you. ”
Xiao Feng said "yes" and went to Dongfeng Pavilion.
Hua Wenliu put down the bamboo bucket and bamboo scoop, shook his head slightly, and said reluctantly: "Alas, it seems that a lot of flowers will have to be wasted in order to make a cup of tea worthy of the guests." With that, he also left.
After a while, Xiao Feng led Chu Shaoying to Xiaojing Lake, Xiao Feng bent down to the people in the bamboo house, and said, "Master, is the person you are talking about the Lord of Chuque?"
The voice of the flower asking the willow came from the bamboo house, and said, "Yes, Xiaofeng, you go down." ”
Xiao Feng retreated.
Chu Shaoying looked at the bamboo hut, and black smoke came out of the chimney on the roof. Chu Shaoying knew that Hua Wenliu was making tea, so she didn't inquire in time.
For a long time, only a few sounds were heard, although it was small, it had the momentum of a strong wind, which made Chu Shaoying frown. Looking closely, it was actually three drops of tea, like an arrow from the string, piercing the window paper at a speed of thousands of miles, and approaching Chu Shaoying. Chu Shaoying's horizontal sword chest, the three drops of tea hit the scabbard of Bo's question impartially, making Chu Shaoying's hand holding the sword tremble.
"Today's young master of wine has become less like the young master of wine back then. ”
"Hmph! Hmph! The tea master of the year has become a real tea master today. ”
"Hehe, since you are an old man, why don't you come in and talk about the old love. The flower in the bamboo house asked Liu said slowly.
Chu Shaoying stepped onto the bamboo bridge on the side of Xiaojing Lake, and before coming to the bamboo house, she entered the door. Inside, there is a bed with a low table on the couch, on which is placed a pot of fragrant tea and a few bowls. Hua Wenliu pointed to the other side of the bed and motioned for Chu Shaoying to sit down.
Chu Shaoying sat opposite Hua Wenliu, and Hua Wenliu poured a cup of tea for him. Chu Shaoying smelled the fragrance of tea, and didn't care about the hot tea, so he took a sip of it, although his mouth was burned, he still said: "Good tea, good tea, this cup of Hundred Flowers and Dew Brew is actually more fragrant, purer and sweeter than before." ”
Hua asked Liu: "It's a pity that you only understand the way of wine, but not the way of tea." Otherwise, we can really be called bosom friends. ”
Chu Shaoying put the sword on the table and said, "Although the tea and wine are different, the truth is the same, as long as you taste it carefully, how can you not understand the reason." ”
Hua Wenliu didn't answer him in time, but looked at the sword on the table, the sword was very wide and thick, and through the jade ring around his waist, he seemed to be able to sense that the sword was resonating with him. But this feeling is just so fleeting, and then I feel that the sense is disturbed.
Hua asked Liu and didn't pay much attention to it, and he tasted the tea quite satisfied, and then said: "Chu Que Lord Rong Ma Yan, suddenly came to the cold house, I don't know what to do?"
Chu Shaoying shrugged her shoulders and said, "Why bother to say such strange things. Actually, I came this time to make a war contract with you, and firstly, to make up for the last broken contract. Second, I know that even if I don't come to make a war contract with you, you will come to make a war contract with me in person. Instead of asking you to make an extra trip, I'll make an appointment with you personally. ”
After hearing this, Hua asked Liu to laugh and said, "Okay!
Chu Shaoying said: "Qingmeiling!"
"When?"
Chu Shaoying said: "The most reassuring thing in my life is Shuyao, after I rescue him from Yin Gu City, I can fight with you with peace of mind." ”
Hua asked Liu, "Okay." If you want to save Shuyao, I will accompany you to save it. ”
Chu Shaoying smiled and said, "Thank you, do we have to fight this battle?"
"Of course, your sword is stained with the blood of my parents. ”
"Your sword is also stained with the blood of my parents. ”
"Because of that, do we have to fight?"
"Yes, other than that, I really want to know who is more powerful between the Son of Heaven and the common people. ”
At this time, Liu Cen Feng walked in, grabbed Hua and asked Liu's arm, and said, "Xiaohua, why don't you say that you don't actually have ...... at all"
Hua Wenliu immediately drank his wife and said, "Cen Feng, you don't have to say it." ”
Chu Shaoying drank the tea in one gulp, then got up to say goodbye, and said, "I am busy with affairs, I have to go back to deal with it, and if I have time in the future, I will come back to catch up." ”
Hua asked Liu to know his character, so he didn't keep it, and said, "I'll give Brother Hua a ride." ”
Chu Shaoying smiled happily and said, "Okay." The two of them walked out of the bamboo hut and along the Luoying Path. Halfway through, Chu Shaoying said: "Brother Hua, I have something unclear, I don't know if you can let me break the mouth." ”
Hua asked Liu to be interested, and said in astonishment: "There are still things in this world that Brother Chu doesn't understand, but I want to hear it." ”
"Last night, my astrologer watched the celestial phenomena and saw the star of death appearing at the turn of the bull fight, and there seemed to be a secret on its star. The astrologer helped the secret to guess, but he had to say 'two or eight taels are insufficient', we thought about it repeatedly, but we didn't know what it meant. ”
Hua asked Liu Da stunned, slapped his hands with a folding fan, and said, "Oh, there is such a thing? Twenty-eight taels are insufficient? Twenty-eight taels are insufficient?" After thinking about it for a while, he didn't know what it meant.
Chu Shaoying said: "Don't talk about this matter with outsiders, if you want to figure out the trick, you can fly the pigeon and pass it on to me." ”
Hua Wenliu nodded, folded the fan and pointed directly at the Dongfeng Pavilion in front of him, and said: "Send you a thousand miles, you need to say goodbye in the end, and we will say goodbye." Then he broke off a few willow branches and gave them to Chu Shaoying, and said: "There is nothing to give, a few willow branches are given as gifts." ”
Chu Shaoying untied the reins of the horse and was about to say, "Thousands of miles to send goose feathers, the courtesy is light and affectionate." Unexpectedly, his horse opened its mouth and bit back, Chu Shaoying didn't expect it, and saw that his right arm was about to be bitten off. Who knew that the wind behind him was like thunder, turning into two sharp blades, knocking out the horse's teeth in an instant, and blood stained the horse's face. But the horse was not afraid at all, and bumped into Chu Shaoying with all his strength. After getting a moment's respite just now, Chu Shaoying came to his senses, and with a flick of his thumb, the Bo question suddenly revealed half a foot, and the sword light was extremely bright. However, in an instant, the Bodhisattva's question had already been sheathed. The horse's head had already fallen to the ground, and after a few staggering moments, it fell to the ground, whimpering for its life.
This is exactly the killing move in the Eight Styles of the Sword.
Chu Shaoying said: "Thank you for this 'fan of thunder', otherwise, my right arm will be useless." ”
Hua Wenliu was slightly stunned, when Fang Cai Bo asked the question out of the sheath, the jade ring on his body was particularly strongly induced, and as soon as the Bo asked the question back to the sheath, the induction was suddenly interrupted. What the hell is going on, after being stunned for a while, he saw that Chu Shaoying was a little impatient, and then said: "If your right arm is useless, how can we compete with the sword fairly, and how can we prove that the sword of the Son of Heaven and the sword of the common people are stronger or weaker." ”
Chu Shaoying said again: "Brother Hua, it seems that your blowing flower Xiaozhu is not safe, it is better to go to Bitianque with me to live for a few days, and it is good to have a companion in case of accidents." ”
Hua asked Liu Dao: "That's not good, when Shuangjiao was a master, and then you jumped off the cliff and died, I have looked down on the grievances of the rivers and lakes, and I am determined to be an idle cloud and wild crane, and then ignore the things in the world." What's more, I plan to stay with Cen Feng for the rest of my life. ”
Chu Shaoying said: "Okay, you don't have to send it anymore, let's go."
Jinglin Villa is not far away, I can go there to borrow a leg. ”
Hua asked Liu, "That's fine." After saying that, the two parted.
Hua asked Liu to think about Fang Cai on the way back, the horse was obviously bewitched by the Heart Gu, but if there were people from Yin Gu City lurking nearby, how could he not notice it at all, could it be ......? No, it couldn't be, Hua Wen Liu denied his guess.
