Dreams in Paradise

One day many people came to the quiet Xiaocang Mountain.

When Liu Shui and Hua Luo came back from the back mountain, they saw a group of people busy moving things up and down.

The master asked them to call the two of them to the study room, pointing to the two handsome young men, one tall and one short, and said, "This is A Wu and Shan Lingyu. From now on, the four of you will study as a teacher together."

This time Master didn't let him take these two people with him, Liu Shui felt relieved.He likes to be with Hualuo.

When they came out of the study, the courtyards were properly arranged, and the two teenagers, one tall and one short, lived in the east and west courtyards respectively.The running water still carried the flowers back to her room.

The master said that reading is reading, and he did not teach A Wu and Shan Lingyu anything other than reading.

There were two more people, so the master stopped giving lectures in the study room, and asked someone to tidy up a spacious and bright study room. Six tables and six stools were arranged in three rows in front and back.

The running water feels a little fresh, but I don't know where to sit.

Hualuo pulled him to sit in the last row.

A Wu came in and sat down directly in the first row.

Shan Lingyu stood at the door and hesitated for a while, then stood at the table in front of the flowing water.The servant who followed hurriedly laid out a cushion for him, and he just sat down in the second row.

The master stopped taking them to read books on self-cultivation and self-cultivation, and began to talk about the imperial court's policy and formation of troops every day, and he talked for a whole day.

The flowing water sounded like falling into the mist of Xiaocang Mountain, thinking in his mind, when will he practice sword with Hualuo?When do you practice flying knives?The words are still being handed down, the joke is too regular!Now that I have just changed it so that it has the taste of flowing water, when can I practice it again?The picture of falling flowers picking up swords and flying knives hasn't been finished yet.Twelve hours a day seems not enough.

The ruler hit him three times on the back.

The master said, "Liu Shui, tell me."

Liu Shui's back was hit with a solid three-rule ruler, and it was so hot that it hurt.Hearing this, she immediately stood up and glanced at Hualuo.Hua Luo and him spread their arms and stared.

Liu Shui looked away, and there were two handsome "refugees" with wet ink on Shan Lingyu's table.

With courage, he stuttered and said: "...The people's livelihood is so difficult, we must have the common people in the world in our hearts, and make a living for the people, so that they have houses to live in, land to cultivate, and live and work in peace."

The master slapped the table and said angrily: "Speak out of your mouth! How can you be a grassroots man in the mountains and fields, and be the master of the world."

This was the first time Master was angry with him, the first time he spoke so harshly.This is a master he has never seen before. The master who was gentle and gentle in the past and never said a word of seriousness disappeared in an instant.

Before he could react from the shock, he heard his master say, "You will be fined to go to the study and close the door for three days, copying the "Xiaocang Mountain Saints' Instructions" to cultivate your moral character."

Liu Shui was still dazed when he sat at the long table in the study.

He took a deep breath and arranged the pen, ink, paper and inkstone. "Xiaocangshan Saints' Training", he had memorized it by heart before Hualuo came.The master asked him to copy, and he would honestly put it in front of his eyes and copy the line word by word, still using the square and square characters.

The master asked him to close the door in the study for three days, and he wrote without raising his head until the light was dim.

Hua Luo came in through the window, stuffed him with two steamed buns, and said, "Take a break." She glanced at what he wrote, clicked her tongue, and said, "When will you be able to practice your flowing water?"

Liu Shui drank cold water with steamed buns, and said, "This is the only way to show Master."

Hua Luo said: "Master didn't tell you how many times to copy it, you just copy it casually."

Liu Shui sighed, and said: "I don't know what happened to Master today. It's like changing a person. Everything has changed. I still don't want to make him angry, and copy more honestly."

Hua Luo said: "Do you think you are wrong?"

Liu Shui shook his head, and said honestly: "I never thought about it. I was stunned by Master. If Master wants to punish me, I will just copy it and treat it as a review."

He chewed the steamed bun and thought about it carefully, and said: "Master should be angry, I didn't hear what he asked. Besides, I rarely go down the mountain, and I rarely see how other people live. Everything I said today was based on what was written in the book, it’s neither outrageous nor brazen, it can only be said to be nonsense, imitating other people’s mouths. Masters on the left and right should be angry.”

Hua Luo said: "If you want to see it, I can take you to see it next time I go down the mountain."

Flowing Road: "OK!"

Hua Luo didn't go back to her home in the city right away when she went down the mountain this time, instead she rode a horse and took running water to her camp twenty miles outside the city.The guards called him "Young Master", and they rode in.

Hualuo led him up the high mountain to the west of the camp, stood on the high city wall, pointed to the outside of the city, and said, "They are the refugees that Master said."

In the running water, I saw many people, in groups of twos and threes, sitting and lying on their backs, with ragged clothes and emaciated appearance.To Hualuo said: "Why don't they go home."

Hua Luo said: "Just after the battle, their homes were destroyed. The houses were burned and looted, the land was trampled by soldiers and horses, and they were homeless."

Liu Shui said: "What Master asked that day was how to arrange them?"

Hua Luo said: "Yes, and no. After you left, Master didn't continue to talk about refugees, but just talked about strategies. He doesn't seem to care about it."

"Hua family boy, what are you doing here if you're not embroidering at home?"

Hua Luo's face darkened, and said: "King Hong Luo, when did you come back?"

Liu Shui saw a heroic youth, wearing a suit of armor, holding a bow and arrow in his hand, about fifteen or sixteen years old, but looked majestic.

King Hong Luo said: "Just arrived, come and check the situation."

Hualuo said to Liushui: "This is King Hong Luo, the son of General Hong. He just came back from a victory at the border and made great military achievements. The emperor named him a little general."

Liu Shui raised his hand against King Hong Luo, and said, "Liu Shui has seen General Hong."

King Hong Luo said: "You are Hualuo's friend! He is rarely so kind to others, you must be unusual. Don't call me General Hong, you will think it is my father. Hualuo's friend is me, Hong Luo Wang’s friend, just call me by my name.”

Liu Shui smiled and said, "King Hong Luo."

Hong Luowang said: "Cheerful! I like it."

He turned to Hualuo and said, "Boy of the Hua family, let me see if your fists and embroidered legs have improved."

Hua Luo directly threw out a few small swords, and King Hong Luo raised his bow and arrows to resist, saying: "How do you sneak attack!"

Hua Luo said: "Soldiers never tire of cheating, little general Hong should know better than me."

King Hong Luo laughed, and casually pulled out a guard's knife, turned around and slashed at Hualuo.Hualuo drew his sword to greet each other, and the two fought for more than a dozen rounds.King Hong Luo withdrew his saber, "That's right, I've made a lot of progress!"

Hua Luo snorted, "Next time we meet, I will definitely beat you to pieces."

King Hong Luo said: "Okay, I'll wait for the two of you to go up together, the flowers will fall and the water will flow."

Hualuo pulled the water and left.King Hong Luo caught up: "Where are you going now?"

Hualuo: "Go home."

King Hong Luo said: "I'll go too. It's been a long time since I've eaten at your family's food. It's strange."

Hualuo got on the horse with running water, and said, "The food is the same all over the world, you go home and eat by yourself."

King Hong Luo rode his horse and chased him wildly, and finally went to the Taiwei's mansion to have a big meal.

After dinner, Taiwei Hua took them to the school grounds, and said to Hualuo, "Let Weifu see how useless you are."

King Hong Luo said: "I'll be with him, and Lord Taiwei will also take a look at me."

Hua Taiwei laughed, and said: "Good boy, I just want to shake the old man's prestige as a little general!"

King Hong Luo smiled so much that he showed a row of white teeth, which Liu Shui thought were the teeth of a wolf.

Hualuo was still defeated this time.

He pulled Liushui and said angrily: "Father, Liushui and I have practiced a two-person swordsmanship. If you give me pointers, it will also open King Hong Luo's eyes."

King Hong Luo said: "Show me now, the two of you, next time you fight together I won't have a trump card, what a pity."

Hua Luo said: "No need, even if you know yourself and your enemy, you can't beat me."

The two of them have practiced this set of swordsmanship together for seven or eight years, and they have a deep tacit understanding.The swordsmanship is simple and concise, the moves are clean and neat, the skill is agile, and the response is sensitive.One front and one back, one left and one right, winning by surprise and protecting each other.Hua Taiwei watched with joy, and said: "Good! My son and flowing water practice swords complement each other very well."

Hualuo triumphantly raised her chin towards King Hong Luo, took Taiwei Hua's hand, and said, "Father, Liu Shui has a surprise, do you want to see it?"

Hua Taiwei smiled and said: "Young Xia Liushui, let the old man see your surprise."

Liu Shui was embarrassed by the shout, looked at Hua Luo, Hua Luo said: "Show me your throwing knife and let my father show you, let him guide you."

Hua Taiwei raised his eyebrows and looked at his son.Hua Luo winked at him, and whispered, "Peach Leaf Flying Knife."

Hua Taiwei glared at him, and turned to look at Liu Shui's flying knife stunt. His son quietly sent out his own secret, and he had to pick and choose.

At Liu Shui's young age, the throwing knife was invisible when he shot it, but he retracted it neatly, flying flowers and cutting leaves without a trace.

Hua Taiwei was dazzled, and said for a long time: "The foundation is solid, but the momentum is not enough."

After finishing speaking, the flying knife shot, and the knife hit the peach leaf knife in the flowing water, and the peach leaf knife pierced into the trunk, and a tree fell down with a loud crash.

Liu Shui retracted the knife, cupped his hands and said, "I'm ashamed."

Taiwei Hua nodded in satisfaction, and said: "You don't need to underestimate yourself, kid. My little one also lacks a sense of momentum. If you learn from him, you will naturally not learn well. From now on, Hualuo will go home every month, and you will come with him, and you will surely win." pass him."

Hua Luo grabbed his hand and said, "Father! I'm your son."

Hua Taiwei said: "Liu Shui has practiced my Hua family's flying knife stunt, that is, my son, you don't have this advantage now."

Hualuo curled her lips, and said to Liushui, "Thank you dad soon!"

Liu Shui cupped his hands, "Thank you, Mr. Taiwei."

Hualuo pushed him, "How stupid are you?"

Hong Luowang said: "Liu Shui, what you learned is the flying knife stunt that Hua Taiwei's family has never heard of. You can't just call him a Taiwei, at least you have to call him a godfather."

Hualuo pushed him to kneel on the ground, and he just woke up like a dream, bowed three times, and shouted: "Godfather!"

Taiwei Hua laughed loudly, and said: "Okay! From now on, you and Hualuo are brothers, you two should get along well, support each other, and never leave each other forever."

Flowing water and falling flowers: "Yes!"
