Alternative Jianghu Adventures

In Qingzhou City, on the Wushui River.

A painting and flower boat slowly parted the water with waves of ripples. On the boat, singing birds and swallows danced on the door beams carved with flying swallows.

Dancing water and flower boats are the daily pastimes for the dignitaries and nobles in the city to have fun every night.

Even in a turbulent and chaotic world, as long as there are people, with money, knives, and girls, there will always be a group of people who can shut themselves in the illusion of a peaceful and prosperous world. .

But today, the dancers on the Wushuihua boat twirled and danced as usual, shaking their water-blue sleeves, and babbling and singing Jiangnan ditties.

The buddies sitting in the upper seat were already slightly drunk, holding peach blossom wine in one hand, and tapping on the table with the other to beat the rhythm.

"it is good!"

After the dance was over, bursts of applause greeted us.

"One more song!"

A young man in deep royal blue clothes at the bottom was responding, but was teased by his companion, "I said the second son of the Cheng family, I heard that something big happened to your family, and the family is in a hurry The ants on the pot sent out a lot of pursuers, but you still have the heart to drink and listen to ditties here?"

The young man is the second son of the prefect of Qingzhou City.

"Hey, what are you afraid of? Father and elder brother can worry about this kind of thing. I, let's save some effort." The second son of the Cheng family lay crookedly on the step made of silk and satin, and said indifferently, The brows are full of the high-spirited and high-spirited young people.

It seems that he is still an ignorant dude.

"You, sooner or later you will be eaten to death by your elder brother." The companion seemed to be displeased with his depravity, and sighed with a smile.

"...I am self-aware," the second son of the Cheng family raised his eyebrows, "If you don't ask about important family matters, I won't be in charge of the family business in the future anyway.

As for me, let him have any disturbances in his house, no matter if everything is stolen, or if the white pigeons flying around in the house pull shit on my head, I will resolutely not intervene!

With wine and poetry, isn't it good to live a happy life?Is it worth fighting against each other all day and receiving the bird's anger? ! "

The companion seemed to be touched by his words, presumably at the same time, he must have fallen into poverty at the same time, probably also a second-generation ancestor who was not favored by the family, and filled up the wine, "Yes yes yes! Isn't it good to live a happy life? Come on Come on! Let's not get drunk tonight!"

The dancer on the boat seemed to have sensed the change in the mood of the guests. With a change of tone, the melodious sound of the pipa fell to the ground like rolling balls, playing the brisk "Floating Cloud Tune", which is currently the most popular among literati. .

The clear and beautiful singing voice immediately overwhelmed, sighing three times, three parts melancholy, three parts brooding, and the remaining four parts, but it is the helplessness and open-mindedness of the sky and the earth.

Completely different emotions permeated layer upon layer with the addition of wire springs, and the singer finally spit out the words:

"Clouds, shadows and winds cross the stream, and green trees cut off the Baiyun road. Hold up the empty bottle, look at the bright moon, and follow the wind without a trace. The sky and the earth are all made of soil! Who knows that spring will come today, and autumn and winter in the Ming Dynasty will not be expected? Forget it, forget it , the tide is raging, the duckweed is chasing the waves, and there is a lone cloud left behind, gathering and dispersing with the wind..."

The singer's voice passed through the flower boat and gradually dissipated in the heavy moonlight.

Wherever the singing sound reached, groups of night walkers with scimitars were jumping up and down among the green trees, and disappeared in an instant.

If you look closely, you can see that the character "Cheng" is engraved on the handle of everyone's scimitar.

A group of more than fifty people are all the personal guards of the Lord of Qingzhou City.

And outside Qingzhou City, more than a hundred black-clothed and masked men rushed to the city with whips on their horses. The leader jumped off his horse and leaped onto the city wall, and wiped the neck of the night watchman with a knife. The people behind him also abandoned their horses and followed closely behind back!

"Are you sure you are in Qingzhou City?" Someone asked behind.

"The Jin family will not make mistakes in this kind of thing," the leader said coldly, "The only blood of the Jin family was killed, and in a hurry, they came to us'Ten Mile Sword'. If you ask whether it is true or not, you will kill if you give the money. Since the Jin family paid a lot of money, they must have obtained reliable information—it must have been bought from Fengge."

"Listen up, brothers, the Jin family has received the news that that little maid is surrounded by the person who killed Miss Jin's family—if you find that little maid, you will find the murderer, understand?"

"Yes!" Everyone behind nodded, exchanged glances with each other, and landed somersault from the outer wall without making a sound.

Between starts, it disappeared in the blink of an eye.

It was also a full moon, and all kinds of things happened quietly in the night, but most people didn't realize it.

Some people spend a boat listening to music, while others drink alone under the moonlight.

The Yuelai Inn in this situation.

Shen Feiwei slept for a whole day and night, and only woke up slowly at night.

"Are you awake?" Seeing that Shen Feiwei slowly opened his eyes, Shiliu quickly got up and poured a cup of warm water, "Drink water to moisten your throat first?"

"..." Shen Feiwei stared blankly at Shiliu for a long time before realizing where he was now from his daze. After drinking the water, his voice was still hoarse, "How long have I been asleep?"

"One day and one night." Sixteen looked up and saw the bright moon hanging high.

"Ahem——" Shen Feiwei got off the bed in a hurry, pulling the large and small wounds on his back, his face turned pale, "No, I have to leave."

While speaking, he staggered and prepared to open the door.

However, before he took two steps, his throat became sweet and he coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood.

The several days of running around made Shen Feiwei's body weak to the extreme.Before he passed out, he held his breath and was able to smile hippiely with Shiliu.But after seeing Xia Yun, he subconsciously felt that there was something to rely on, and the breath finally dissipated, and all the various ailments accumulated in the past few days all came up now.

Now the internal energy in Shen Feiwei's body is as thin as a gossamer, and he can't even catch his breath when he walks hurriedly.

"It's all like this, and I still want to run away!" Xia Yun's smiling voice came from above his head, causing Shen Feiwei, who had finally helped the tree to stabilize his body, to look up.

"It's all because of your sudden appearance yesterday that I didn't finish my drink. Today, while the moon is still full, I will try to get drunk again tonight."

Xia Yun leaned against the tree, even crossed his legs, showing an uninhibited charm.

How could Shen Feiwei who grew up with him not understand Xia Yun's true intention?

Without knowing why he was seriously injured, from the few words we met last night, it can be inferred that Xia Yun might be chasing after him, Xia Yun was deliberately guarding the backyard just in case!

"Ahem... thank you." Shen Feiwei was not pretentious, leaning his whole body against the big tree, and smiled apologetically at Shiliu, "Miss Shiliu, I'm sorry, can I ask you to help me get something to eat? I've been three days and three I haven't eaten at night, and my stomach is screaming happily!"

Sixteen nodded quickly, turned and went into the kitchen.

"In a hurry?" Xia Yun asked with a smile without a trace.

"Well," Shen Feiwei gasped and said with difficulty, "I have been chased by the pursuers for a month, I really can't stay here for long, it will be bad if Aunt Guo and the others get hurt."

"As long as you are like this, are you sure you can get out of this yard?" Xia Yun raised his eyebrows, and took another sip of strong wine, feeling a little drunk.

"If you don't leave, you have to go...cough cough..." Shen Feiwei said in a hurried tone, "I have to live and hand things over to them, time is running out."

"What? The task of Shen Yuan Pavilion?"

Shen Feiwei entered Shenyuan Pavilion at the same time as Xia Yun.

"That's right," Shen Feiwei murmured, suddenly as if remembering something, with clear eyes, he said slowly, "Xia Yun, I have a merciless request..."

Before he finished speaking, Xia Yun yelled, covered his ears, and shook his head childishly, "I won't listen, I won't listen, I won't listen...Shen Feiwei, I don't care what you have to say, just give it to me I don't want to listen to a word you say if it's rotten in my stomach!"

If Xia Yun was lying on the bed at this time, he would definitely roll on the bed several times before giving up.

Shen Feiwei: "..."

Xia Yun quarreled for a while, and found that Shen Feiwei didn't intend to continue talking, so he took another sip of wine as if he was relieved.Before he could recover, he heard Shen Feiwei speak.

"...Xia Yun, I have a heartless request."

Shen Feiwei, who grew up since he was a child, would never know who Xia Yun was, so he patiently waited for her to finish the fight, completely ignoring her opinions - this was the rhythm that Xia Yun had to listen to.

"Get out! Shut up!" Xia Yun simply changed his tone this time, already showing a bit of impatience.

"You have to listen if you don't! This task is related to the master!" Shen Feiwei became anxious, his voice was a bit harsh, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood!

Xia Yun's face froze immediately, his lips moved, and he wanted to say something, but in the end he said, "...I think you are deliberately pretending to be pitiful in front of me... Really... yes Let the fart go!"

"Xia Yun, I don't know that you have been away for five years.

The young emperor in the court is now full-fledged.Young Emperor, he is preparing to join forces with the chieftain of the south to fight against the army of the treacherous Prime Minister Lu Kun.

In the end, the young emperor contacted the split faction of Shen Yuan Pavilion, which is my master... Of course, it is also your uncle, please ask us to get something.

Master thought it over and over again, others were worried, and finally decided to send me to this Qingzhou city to steal the tiger amulet that can command the five counties in the south.

This thing was handed over to the Cheng family, the magistrate of Qingzhou City, a few years ago, and he was going to take the opportunity to mobilize troops to completely destroy the remaining forces of the Southern Dragon Chieftain.The Patriarch of the Cheng family is quite cunning, I lurked for a long time, and finally let me find the way and succeeded in one fell swoop, but it also attracted many pursuers!

The chieftain of the Southern Dragon and the young emperor have the same interests - Lu Kun killed nine members of his family, this feud is irreconcilable!

He has already received the news that after I hand over the Tiger Talisman to General Lantian, the Cheng family in Qingzhou will not be able to mobilize troops to resist the attack of the Miao people in the south. After the city was captured, the southern forces were basically in the hands of the young emperor——

In this way, the young emperor also has the capital to really fight the traitor Lu Kun!

Xia Yun, with my current physical condition, I absolutely cannot send the Tiger Talisman to Lan Tian. If I die, can you send it for me? "

"No!" Xia Yun listened patiently, and finally yelled, "No, no! This is your task, and you have hands and feet, so you have to send it yourself!"

Shen Feiwei lost his temper by Xia Yun's words. Seeing Xia Yun picking up the wine gourd and pouring it into his mouth, he couldn't help frowning, and changed the subject, "Xia Yun, you really don't plan to come back? Now Master, he can't support himself alone, you..."

"Come back?" Before he finished speaking, Xia Yun chuckled, the drunkenness in his tone was already extremely obvious, and he said casually: "I am Xia Yun, but I am just a floating cloud. Wherever the wind blows, I will go wherever the wind blows. Rootless Floating clouds, just floating around—home? Xiao Feizi, tell me, where is my Xia Yun's home? Where is your home?"

Shen Feiwei sighed, "Have you forgotten the way of being an uncle? Now that traitors are in power, we..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xia Yun again, his voice suddenly raised a few degrees, "None of my business! My master, he is a heroic and courageous old man, and he finally fell to an unknown place-now even the bones are fucking Can't find it!

You told me that there is a fart in advocating the righteous way!

Good people are fucking dead without a whole body!The villain is there in a chic and happy way!My master, an old man, followed my temperament since childhood. He doted on me back then, but he didn't even force me to recognize the words. Xiao Feizi, you still want to put it on my Xia Yun's head?

Forgot who gave you the basic skills of your three-legged cat?Even though the incident happened 12 years ago, and you came to worship under my uncle by chance—but seriously, you still have to call me 'Master' in a proper manner!

If you keep babbling here, be careful that I will break your dog legs and tie you up and send you to the government! "

Shen Feiwei looked at Xia Yun's ghostly look, and couldn't help but get a little angry, "Hey! Xia Yun! Wake up! I can't let go of the wine gourd I've been holding all day——Yue'er, her life and death were unknown 12 years ago, and she couldn't be bothered. That's all!

five years ago!Didn't the jade pendant you dug out from the mass grave with your own hands wake you up? "

Xu was stimulated by Xia Yun's talk about "the accident 12 years ago", and Shen Feiwei yelled regardless,

"Yue'er is dead! She died five years ago at the latest!"

"The bones have turned into ashes! I left you a broken jade pendant! You have been looking for the Qiao family for 12 years, but you haven't even found a fart! Five years ago, you were so half-dead that my master sealed your meridians." , less than [-]% of your internal strength is left! Now you can't even beat me so damn, how dare you call yourself a master in front of me?

Yes, you didn't seek death on purpose, you just abolished your martial arts and resigned yourself to life and death!

You disappeared without saying a word for five full years, ignoring and ignoring, you want to close your eyes and ears, yes, you can choose not to listen or to see.But the struggle in the capital started long ago, the turmoil between the north and the south will break out sooner or later, and sooner or later the flames of the world will burn on your head. Are you really willing to let your master's Shan Hai Jing remain silent and just this section in the torrent?

People cannot be resurrected after death, the dead are gone, but the living still exist!Xia Yun—”

"Do you understand what it means to die!"

Shen Feiwei exhausted all his energy for these words, and coughed uncontrollably after speaking in one breath.

At this moment, Shiliu had already brought a bowl of vegetable porridge from the kitchen, Shen Feiwei took it gratefully, and drank the porridge like water, his empty stomach felt filled up a lot in an instant, and he even felt his own strength come back some.

Just as he was about to continue yelling, Xia Yun suddenly sat up from the tree, with his toes hooked upside down on the tree, and his whole body swung down, facing Shen Feiwei who was standing on the ground.

A crescent-colored jade pendant hangs from her neck, with the word "Joe" engraved on it.

——Clearly it is the "precious token" that Yue'er can't take off no matter what.

Sixteen's eyelids twitched suddenly, and a strong sense of familiarity came out of her mind, and she felt that she had seen this thing before, but soon this strange feeling disappeared.

Came back from a trance, but felt that this was the first time he had seen this thing.

Xia Yun grinned, eyes crooked, full of smiles, and said happily, "Of course I know what death means!

Dead—that is, Hu Zi, he will never accompany you to climb trees to dig out bird eggs; I will be stupid and chase after you with my nose dragging; if I die, there will be no more fools who are short of two hundred and fifty to let me cheat money for nothing...

Surprised or not!Happy or not!Happy or not? !

Little Feizi—”

Xia Yun recalled Shen Feiwei's nickname again, and smiled brightly with a strong smell of alcohol, "If you die, the little friends from back then are almost wiped out! Only the two of us are still here cursing and unable to get out!"

She handed the wine gourd forward, the mouth of the gourd just touched Shen Feiwei's forehead, she looked over the jade pendant hanging upside down in front of her eyes, she felt that the word "Joe" on it was particularly eye-catching, but her tone was indescribably light.

"Hey! While we are still alive, there is still some beer wine in the gourd, do you want to have a sip?"

Her chest was heaving up and down, with the stars and full moon on her head, her laughter exploded in Shen Feiwei's ears like fireworks, crackling and crackling, and it lasted for a long time.

After Xia Yun's voice fell, Shen Feiwei did not reply for a long time.

The sound of insects that had long been buried in the two people's confrontational words seemed to come from their ears faintly and far away. For a while, the three of them seemed to only hear the sound of heartbeats one after another.

After hearing Xia Yun's words, Shen Feiwei blushed, and then heaved a heavy sigh, falling into full of melancholy.

In the end, he still took the wine gourd handed over by Xia Yun, and just about to take a sip, the sound of rustling footsteps floated in his ears along the evening wind.

Shen Feiwei's complexion changed, "There are... ten... no... it's a large army of more than fifty people!"

The author has something to say: Surprise or not!Happy or not!Happy or not? !

(Now you know why I wrote the previous memories that seemed so watery... XD

Come on, I wish you all a happy Friday~
