Alternative Jianghu Adventures

It is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal.

Even when Xia Yun turned from Mu Zhi's self-proclaimed martial arts to a little assassin with a rank of one thousand in Shen Yuan Pavilion, he never completely abolished his own martial arts. Although it was small, he still left a bit of leeway for himself.

After all, for a martial arts practitioner, every breath is already a bit unusual, and the internal strength of the moves is carved in the bones and fused with painstaking efforts.If you use cooking as an analogy, it is pouring oil into the water, and it is even more difficult to pick it up.

But it is such a situation that ordinary people will encounter once in a lifetime.But Xia Yun was only in her early twenties, so she happened to encounter such a situation twice: the first time was the accident 12 years ago, she couldn't lift her hands for several years, and finally got used to being semi-disabled I didn't expect that after I found Yue'er and fulfilled my long-cherished wish, it would happen again!

It can be said that it is really unlucky to get home.

"So sometimes I really wonder if I have been unlucky for eight lifetimes." Xia Yun picked three wooden sticks out of nowhere, and distributed two of them to the confused Yuan Hua and Yuan Chong brothers and sisters, mouthing Li couldn't help sighing and said: "This kind of thing that happens once in a hundred years has happened to me twice like this! But once I am familiar with the second time, I can be regarded as... I have experienced hundreds of battles."

Although I was still a little trembling in my heart, I had no choice but to bite the bullet in this situation.

"I'm just curious about who tied these two trees to make a 'bridge' so kindly." Xia Yun kept talking, which distracted the two overly nervous little ghosts beside him.

Touching the ground left and right to test its firmness, Xia Yun nodded and said, "It's okay, let's go."

"Go...? How?" Yuan Chong was still holding a tree branch that was as long as a person handed to him by Xia Yun in his hand, blinking his eyes in a daze, and asked in confusion.

"This branch is for you to balance on the 'bridge'." Xia Yun patted Yuan Chong's shoulder, and said seriously: "You go first, we will watch for you from behind. Then put this branch across your chest , it should be useful when you are unstable.”

Yuan Chong stared at the huge gap between the two gorges in disbelief, and forced himself to speak, "I, I, I...just go?"

"Could it be possible that you still want me to recite it! Such a big man looks like he is almost ten years old and still let me recite it? Don't be ashamed!" The branch in Xia Yun's hand twitched, and it immediately hit Yuan Chong's feet, startled A piece of dust, looks quite like a hooligan wandering around the city.

"He's still a man, dawdle, hurry up! Don't waste your time here!" Xia Yun suddenly added a few words as if remembering something, "By the way, sister, I don't care how your elder brother treated you before. In short, you two little bastards fell into my hands, no matter whether you were a young master or a little beggar before, just listen to me when you come to me, otherwise be careful and I will kick you into the trench when I see you upset!"

"You talk too much." Qiao Anyue whispered beside Xia Yun, "At least they are too..."

Before Qiao Anyue could finish speaking, Xia Yun whispered in his ear: "I've been annoyed by those weeping rich boys and girls the most in my life. They want to play with their temper to please you! I don't know what the nature of these two brats is. So, don’t worry about it, let’s try to get off the ground first!”

As she spoke, she remembered the child coaxing manual that Lan Sang forced to buy and sell to her before she set off... Thinking of the crooked patterns of melons and jujubes filled in with inferior ink, she half wanted to follow the script. nothing.

all fake!Fake!

While speaking, Yuan Chong had already been chased by Xia Yun onto the shelf and stepped on the coconut tree trunk that had been dried long ago.

To put it bluntly, no matter what the connected object is, it is actually a single-plank bridge.Xia Yun walked a lot on the single-plank bridge, the most recent one was the chain bridge that he crossed on the way to Feilongzhai.

It is clear that there is only one iron chain that goes up and down, but not only people in the martial arts can walk freely on it, many native people of Miao Village can walk on it like flying with a pole.Newcomers rely on their excellent lightness skills, while ordinary people traveling north and south rely on their balance.

To put it bluntly, it is a trick that makes perfect.There was an oil seller in ancient times who could not touch copper plates. Now Xia Yun's internal strength is only blocked, but the physical strength he has trained in the cold winter is still there and cannot be underestimated.

But compared to Xia Yunqiao Anyue's confidence, Yuan Chong is naturally not in case. Although there are military generals in the small palace, as Yuan Hua mentioned before, compared with many brothers in the field of civil and military, he It can only be regarded as quite satisfactory.In other words, nothing can be achieved without writing.His footwork is unstable, and he doesn't like fighting by nature, so he is an easy target for bullying.

It's a pity that due to Xia Yun's threat, he had to step on the only road leading to "hell".

Yuan Chong gritted his teeth, his eyes almost narrowed into a slit, but he was afraid that he would not be able to see the road ahead and would fall, so he had to open a little slit against the wind.The branch used for balance in his hand across his chest swayed left and right in the air. After walking a few steps tremblingly, his calf became weak and he refused to take a step forward.

"Hurry up, the more you procrastinate like this, the easier it is to get scared, and the more your body will shake."

Xia Yun couldn't see it, and couldn't help but remind him.

"Cocoa but... I really..."

Jaws were trembling up and down, Yuan Chong didn't dare to look at the "beautiful scenery" under his feet, and he couldn't even finish his sentence.

"go!"

What responded to him was Xia Yun sternly shouted, and incidentally added a note of "bamboo shoots roasted meat", and the tip of the treetop hit Yuan Chong's calf, and Yuan Chong subconsciously took a step forward in pain, The body inevitably leans to the side!

Yuan Hua stood on the shore and saw his brother was about to fall into the sea. How could his clever little mind keep up with Xia Yun's jumping thinking?I couldn't help screaming regret in my heart.If there was a bottle of regret medicine in front of the little girl at this moment, she would definitely drink it without hesitation.

Where is this savior?Could it be that the traitor Lugou sent them out to send them on the road!

With the greatest malice, Yuan Hua speculated about these two young ladies who didn't look so "vicious" face, and then noticed that Xia Yun hit Yuan Chong's sideways body again with a sap Going up—he straightened the person abruptly!

Before Yuan Chong could react, the overwhelming blow came from behind.So much so that he didn't care about the abyss under his feet at all, and rushed forward in a daze—anyway, he could be beaten back if he strayed!

The trunk of the coconut tree is much thicker than the iron chain, and it is no problem to put a person's feet.For those who try it for the first time, the most difficult thing is to overcome the psychological hurdle.

Yuan Chong was interrupted by Xia Yun, and when he stepped on the other side, he was still dazed and unreal.

"Let's go." Qiao Anyue glanced at Yuan Hua.

Compared with Xia Yun's long speech, her words are much more concise.In fact, she is not very good at dealing with strangers she has just met, especially without the disguise of that layer of skin, she is even more unsuitable to show people with her true face.

The kind of softness that would only occasionally appear in front of Xia Yun is even more unthinkable at the moment, so Yuan Hua sees a head-to-toe coldness in Yuan Hua's eyes.

The little girl blinked her eyes. Through her actions just now, she had concluded that Xia Yunqiao Anyue just had a bad attitude, but she really didn't have any malice towards them.

So he resigned himself to his fate and set foot on the coconut tree.The shells that Qiao Anyue originally planned to use as hidden weapons also fell on Yuan Hua at this moment, and she was always correcting the little girl's figure-this teaching appearance fell in Xia Yun's eyes, and it was a bit like Xia Cunxiu used small stones to force her She consolidated her rigor in the trade.

Forget the past.

Xia Yun couldn't help shivering.

"What are you?" Yuan Hua quickly accepted this pattern, and once he stepped on the other side, his thoughts became lively again, "Is it the martial arts used by those flying around in the rivers and lakes?"

"That's right." Qiao Anyue withdrew her hand and cast a strange glance at Yuan Hua.

Flying heroes?

It was the first time she was called that.

Yuan Hua's eyes were instantly gilded with a layer of light, and his tone was filled with uncontrollable excitement, "Really? What is this trick called? Can you teach me?"

The little girl's sudden enthusiasm made Qiao Anyue a little overwhelmed, she replied in a deep voice: "It's just heresy."

"Can you learn, can you learn?"

Qiao Anyue has observed the appearance of those elders coaxing children to play, if she wants, she can effortlessly put on a doting expression and satisfy the children's curiosity with full patience.

But maybe Yuan Hua's eyes were too hot, which made her hesitate for a while.

Qiao Anyue subconsciously pulled Xia Yun to the rescue.

Xia Yunding smiled enviously at Yuan Hua and asked, "It is possible, but why do you want to learn these things all of a sudden?"

Yuan Hua was silent for a while.

What is the purpose of learning martial arts?Before leaving the palace, he thought that learning martial arts was to prove to his father that he was no worse than those yelling elder brothers.After leaving the palace, he first focused on revenge—as for the object of revenge, there was only a vague shadow of Lu Kun; after staying with Yuan Mei for a long time, he felt that it was too late to escape, so what was revenge?Even if the revenge is successful, what will happen next?Then vaguely realized that revenge should not be the whole of life.

So what is the whole of life?

Because of Yuan Mei's identity, coupled with the ups and downs all the way, she felt that if she would never use her original surname again, it would be good to be a person in the rivers and lakes like Yuan Mei.But Yuan Mei asked her on the boat what she thought Jianghu was?

"Just now...you called the sister next to you a 'hero', right?" Xia Yun pointed at Qiao Anyue, unconcernedly piercing the little girl's fantasy about the world, "But this 'hero' What she did before was all bad deals. She even worked for Lu Kun, do you think she is still a 'hero'?"

"As for me, I have done a lot of things like killing people and stealing goods." Xia Yun smiled nonchalantly, "The enemies in the Jianghu can be lined up in a long line. What do you think I am?"

Xia Yun originally just wanted to scare the little girl's whim, but as she spoke, she couldn't help thinking of what Xia Cunxiu had said to her:

[Xia Yun, what do you think is a hero? 】

[I have killed countless people in my life, and I always thought that I was doing justice for the heavens, and I cared about a lot of things, including fame and prestige.The more people you can kill, the worse your reputation will be in Jianghu.Everyone in the world calls me a hypocrite who kills the old and the weak, women and children, but they are full of shame.I have beheaded a flying dog, but that flying dog also has someone he loves.I thought I could save the world and fight the troubled times, but I could do nothing for the people close to me... In the end, the bamboo basket fetched water in vain, the world was so big that I felt that there was nowhere to go.Speaking out, I felt that the name of the assassin's ancestors was tarnished, and it was a big joke. 】

"Good guy." Yuan Chong suddenly said from the side: "If you were a bad guy, you wouldn't have two 'burdens' with you."

Xia Yun suddenly laughed so hard that Yuan Chong looked at her puzzled.

"It's useless to say good things. If you don't answer the previous question well, I won't..."

"Self-protection." Yuan Hua threw down these two words without thinking.

"Practicing martial arts is for self-protection." Yuan Hua said, "Is this reason acceptable?"

The little girl's eyes were full of seriousness, and she changed from the slightly confused atmosphere before.

That's right, she had been longing for the so-called Jianghu before, but she was just subconsciously avoiding that painful memory.She thought that the Jianghu could be happy with grievances, and that the Jianghu could show her ambitions.But that's just what she thought.

She wanted to prove to her father that she was no worse than her elder brother, but she didn't take any action, she just complained and complained in her heart.Actually avoid it.

But whether Yuan Mei, He Lianqiu who fascinated her in his mouth, or Xia Yunqiao Anyue whom he met now, all they saw and heard were open and upright people.He doesn't shy away from his past, and just walks in this world in the way he thinks.

There are tens of thousands of rivers and lakes avenues, be it the Kangzhuang avenues or narrow paths, those who run around and risk their lives are all children of the rivers and lakes.

Good or evil, but no one escapes.When your life hangs on this unsupported bridge, there is no way out, and the rest is just to believe that this bridge keeps moving forward.As for the "Tao" itself, it is different for the beholder.

Choose the avenue to protect yourself.

"It's kind of interesting." Xia Yun showed two sharp little canine teeth, and waved his hand, "Let me tell you in advance, your bones are not top-notch, and you may have to suffer a little bit."

The little girl's uneasy heart suddenly relaxed.

However, before she opened her mouth to utter the classic quote "Master, please be respected by the disciples" that she had read countless times in the comic book, she heard a sharp and rapid bird song from the floor. From far to near in the cascading dense forest, they are rushing head-on!

The author has something to say: This volume is really relaxing, the most relaxing volume in the full text, there is no big devil, just daily chatting gags :)
