Women's Second Battle

The author has something to say: Long Jiaoyue always feels that there is something in her heart that is very tight, but she doesn't know how to relieve such a tangled mood.

When she returned to Xianshu Peak, Bai Lu was still practicing Taoism on the Baiyu playground at the foot of the mountain. She just sat in the Qing Yaxuan, and then started to pack things for Bai Lu.

How can I bring a set of replacement clothes?In case it is contaminated with dust and blood, it cannot be changed on the steep Kunlun Mountains.

You also need to bring a small comb. Bai Lu wears a cloud on her temples all day long, and she will always let it go at night.Her hair is black and shiny, without a small wooden comb, after going out in the wind and rain for a few days, no matter how beautiful and smooth the hair is, it will become a chicken coop.

There are also wound medicines, these high-quality wound medicines that Xianshufeng has stored for many years, how many bottles do you have to bring?Leaving aside the matter of the nine-headed demon-eyed bird, what if he was scratched by a branch along the way, or twisted his foot by a stone?

The more Long Haoyue thought about it, the more she felt that there was no bottom in her heart.She always treated Bai Lu as a child, and felt that Bai Lu would never leave her.But now Bai Lu has achieved the top ten results of this fairy sword, just like the swan that is about to fly south, finally let Long Haoyue understand that she is no longer a child who only needs to rely on herself.

But no matter how much she told herself, Bai Lu had finally grown up on her own, and it was time to let her go out to practice, but Long Jiaoyue still felt the ecstasy of parting in her heart.

I can only hate Ben Chiju for skipping this side mission and not writing it down carefully, except that the nine-headed demon-eyed bird not only has poison in its saliva, but also the hidden conditions of its poison, and everything else is unknown.

Long Jiaoyue was still sitting on the chair in a daze, as the sun gradually set, Bai Lu finally returned to Qingyaxuan.

Long Haoyue was still thinking about something, so Bai Lu entered the room, put the cold sword on the back on the table, and only called softly beside Long Haoyue: "Master?"

Only then did Long Jiaoyue come back to her senses, Bai Lu stood in front of her pretty, and said to her with a little surprise: "Master lost his mind, but what are you thinking about?"

Long Haoyue sat in the chair, wanted to say something but felt unable to say it, so she stood up and handed her the folded begging bag on the bed: "San Sidian must have sent a disciple to inform you. Master Thinking that you will go to Kunlun Mountains with Master Xu tomorrow, the journey is tiring, and the nine-headed demon-eyed bird is not easy to deal with, so I prepared some things for you, like muscle-generating and healing ointment, a handful Wooden comb, and wormwood dew to repel mosquitoes..."

Bai Lu looked up at her slightly, and said after a while, "These masters don't have to worry, Bai Lu has already prepared."

Long Jiaoyue finished speaking halfway, and swallowed the remaining half abruptly.In front of her, Bai Lu only raised her eyes to look at her, and said gently after a while, "Bai Lu will not disappoint Master, and this trip to Kunlun Mountain, Master also doesn't have to worry."

Where is the thing in this world that you can not worry about if you don't worry?

Standing there, Long Haoyue only lowered her eyes and said, "Well, you have to hurry tomorrow morning, so go to rest early."

Long Jiaoyue was not at ease that night, and Bai Lu, who was sleeping next to him, said that he didn't need to worry about Long Jiaoyue, but still tossed and turned for most of the night.Long Jiaoyue didn't know what was thinking in her head, but it seemed like she wasn't thinking about anything.It wasn't until late at night that Bai Lu moved towards her slightly and hugged her arm.

She called softly: "Master, are you asleep?"

Long Haoyue didn't want to answer at first, so she pretended to be asleep.But Bai Lu's hand slid down from her arm, and it was about to land on her waist along the smooth skin.

Seeing that Xiaotuanzi's claws were about to hug her waist, Long Jiaoyue hurriedly said, "Yes."

Bai Lu didn't move anymore, she just moved over, put her chin on Long Jiaoyue's neck, and hummed: "Master."

Long Jiaoyue hummed, indicating that she was listening.To enhance the effect, she added: "I am here."

Long Haoyue thought Bai Lu would say something, but it happened that she was bored, so she was ready to listen.In the past, when there was thunder in summer, Bai Lu would retreat into Long Haoyue's arms under the pretext of being afraid of thunder. Long Jiaoyue always said in her heart that I am your master who practiced thunder. gotta tremble.But the slander belongs to the slander, and she couldn't stand those big watery eyes staring at her, so she still had to pull Bai Lu into her arms.

Now that Bai Lu has grown up gradually, she doesn't like getting into her arms very much at night.

Long Jiaoyue closed her eyes, waiting for Bai Lu to speak, but Bai Lu put her chin on her neck and fell asleep like this.

Fuck, you're a little unreasonable, aren't you?

Long Jiaoyue lowered her head slightly, and saw Xiao Tuanzi closing her eyes serenely, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, and her expression was indescribably reassuring and nostalgic.

Looking at Bai Lu's quiet slapped face in her sleepy face, Long Haoyue trembled in her heart.

Ben chicory isn't bent yet, is it?Isn't this radicchio straight?Isn't this chicory straighter than a telephone pole?

Nima!Ben Chicory loves men!Ben Juju not only loves men, but also handsome and stylish men, right?Why, why does Ben Juju feel reluctant to part with her female apprentice, and she is still the heroine. After falling down a Beiling City, there are tens of thousands of supporting men. What is Ben Juju doing all this? ?

Long Haoyue silently said in her heart that I am straight, I am straight, don't be fooled by this little dumpling's sleeping face, this kind of reluctance must be just a teacher-student relationship, don't, this chicory can't bend! ! ! !

When she woke up the next day, Long Haoyue's eyes were slightly blue.It was already dawn, and Bai Lu had already left.

Wearing Changliu school uniform, Long Haoyue got off Xianshu Peak, went to Sansi Hall to have a look, Shen Wangshan was in retreat, went to Fuyun Pavilion to have a look, Xu Langqing led the team away, went to Huanjian Terrace, Bai Zhi was sitting in a pile of folds , was very busy, and went to sit in the back mountain where she practiced, and Qiu Mingyuan stopped standing on that rock to tease her.

All of you who had a little friendship in the past have either left or are too busy.Leaning on the green bamboo branch, Long Haoyue suddenly felt a little lonely.

In the past, the elders of Changliu often went out. According to Qiu Mingyuan, they often did things that never came back, but she, Long Jiaoyue, didn't think there was anything wrong?Isn't she still practicing as usual, eating, drinking, drinking and having fun as usual?

Could it be that because of Xiaotuanzi's departure, Long Jiaoyue felt empty in her heart?After getting along like this for several years, facing each other day and night, now that this person is gone, it really seems like a piece is missing in her heart.

Long Haoyue wanted to practice the Nine Heavens Attracting Thunder Jue, but her hard-working hands seemed to have been beaten by frost, and she couldn't lift her strength at all.She wandered down the mountain for a while, watched the disciples practice for a while, and felt that these disciples were not as hardworking as Bai Lu, so she had to go back to Xianshu Peak in a boring way.

Long Haoyue went back to Xianshu Peak with her hands behind her back, wanting to drink a cup of tea, but the water was cold.She wanted to eat a pastry to relieve her mood, but the pastry was also cold.The bed was cold, the sheets were cold, and even the air was cold.

Long Jiaoyue stood in the Qing Yaxuan, feeling that everything was cold.She sat back in the chair dejectedly, alas, what's the matter, did Ben Juju suffer from apprentice dependence?

After an unknown amount of time, Long Haoyue finally stood up and began to boil the water by herself.

Nima, this is a miserable world without induction cooker and natural gas!The hot water in Xianshu Peak used to be all brought by Bailu from the boiling spring at the foot of the mountain, and there was no stove in the room, so now Long Haoyue can only boil the water with internal force.

Falling, what kind of shit is this!

Long Haoyue thought, I once heard that if a person is willing to fetch hot water for another person 365 days a year without gaps, that is definitely true love that will shake the world and make ghosts and gods cry.In the past, Bailu went down from Qingyaxuan, walked up hundreds of stone steps down the mountain to fetch hot water, and then climbed up to Qingyaxuan with a bucket of hot water, so that Long Jiaoyue could have warm water every night 365 days a year. Huge water to wash your face.She didn't think much of it in the past, but after Bai Lu left, Long Haoyue realized that she had neglected Bai Lu's dedication all along, and only now did she realize that she was no longer able to take care of herself.She doesn't look like a master like this. In terms of exercises, she is guiding Bai Lu, but in life, it is Bai Lu who is taking care of her!

The more Long Haoyue thought about it, the more dejected she became. She said to herself, how can I rely on a small dumpling everywhere?If Ben Juju went to the countryside to farm alone in the future, and lived a little life in the countryside to nourish his life and return to his innocence, if he knew nothing and left Bailu, would he starve himself to death?

She put some water in the teacup, put it on her hands and burned it with internal force.Seeing that the water was boiling, Long Jiaoyue said that she could still take care of herself, so she joyfully used her other hand to hold the burning teacup on her right hand.

I give a big rub!So hot, so hot!It hurts!

Long Jiaoyue was caught off guard, and forgot that her left hand was not using exercises, so she was caught off guard by the hot teacup and scalded her hand.Under the pain, not only her left hand, but also her right hand was suddenly retracted. The teacup lost its weighing point and fell to the ground, fragmented, and the tea in it spilled all over the floor.

With a bitter face, Long Haoyue covered her burnt left hand to her ear, and the ground was covered with water, still steaming.

Nima!Why?

Long Jiaoyue's heart was full of frustration, if she lived alone in the countryside, away from the well-clothed Longting and Bailu's care, what would happen?

Could it be that in the future, Ben Chiju can only live a wealthy life in the Longting where he stretches out his hands to eat and opens his mouth?But Long Tingshi belongs to the cultivation sect, and Ben Juju really doesn't want to get involved in this chaotic situation. Ben Juju still thinks that his own life is more precious?

Long Jiaoyue was still down there, but there was a person standing at the door, only looking at the water on the ground in surprise, and then raised his eyes to look at Long Jiaoyue: "Master?"

Long Jiaoyue raised her head abruptly, and Bai Lu stood in front of her holding the door, only slightly surprised and said: "What's wrong? Master, why are you so angry that you even dropped the teacup?"

Long Jiaoyue's scalded hand was still pinching her earlobe to dissipate heat. Seeing Bai Lu's inexplicable appearance, she couldn't help but stare at her in disbelief.

No, didn't this Xiaotuanzi follow Xu Langqing to Kunlun Mountain for a trial?

Seeing that her eyes were wide open, Bai Lu walked over with a bewildered expression, "What's the matter? Master doesn't recognize Bai Lu with his eyes?"

I know you, I know you even when you turn into ashes!

Long Haoyue pinched her ears and stammered, "Didn't you follow Xu Langqing and the others to Kunlun Mountain for a trial?"

Bai Lu walked up to her, looked at the water on the ground, and then at her hand pinching her ear, and immediately understood what happened to the broken porcelain on the ground.

She stretched out her hand and pulled Long Haoyue's hand over. She didn't answer her question, but said with a displeased face: "Master wants to drink tea, so just ask the other senior sisters to go down the mountain to fetch water. Why bother to do the rough work by yourself?" .Look, the skin is scalded and bleeding."

Long Haoyue hurriedly said embarrassingly: "It's okay, you used to carry water every day, isn't that rough work? Master can do it too."

Bai Lu raised her eyebrows: "Oh, really?"

She put Long Haoyue's finger in her mouth naturally, Long Haoyue was taken aback, before she had time to say shit, she sucked the blood from Long Haoyue's finger in her mouth, stretched out With one free hand, he went to touch the wound medicine bottle in his pocket.

While holding Long Haoyue's finger, she said, "That's not a rough job, it's Bai Lu's willingness."

Long Haoyue's fingers were in her mouth, and between her words, the soft fingertip skin touched the most moist and soft (indescribable) tongue, Long Haoyue's body froze, and her hands almost trembled Come.

Bai Lu, however, looked innocent, took her fingers on her hand, and smeared the white and jade-like muscle-creating ointment on her hand: "Master, you need to take good care of your body, don't get wet, don't see the wind, if you leave scars, it will hurt you." It doesn't look good."

Damn kid, you haven't told Ben Chiju why you're back!

Bai Lu pushed Long Haoyue to a chair and sat down, only said: "Master, do you want some tea?"

Long Jiaoyue sat on the chair, looked at Bai Lu's eyes as clear as the starry sky, didn't have any further objections, just nodded and said: "En."

Bai Lu slightly bent the corners of her mouth and smiled.She took a white porcelain cup again, grabbed some tea leaves, put them in her palm and boiled them with her internal energy, and then put the tea leaves in when the time was right, and then drew out the cold sword on her back to activate the cold air to cool down the cup. Only then handed it to Long Jiaoyue: "Master, please drink tea."

Long Haoyue sat on that chair with mixed feelings in her heart.She looked at Bai Lu with a smile on the corner of her mouth, like a child who has done a good deed and wants to be praised by her parents, and her face was full of pride from the master, "I'm so good, please praise me." She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and took the cup Lukewarm tea.

The tea in it is brewed evenly, and the tea fragrance is overflowing. The stretched tea leaves are like small pieces of green skirts, sinking at the bottom of the light green tea.Long Haoyue took a sip of the tea and said, "Well, the taste is very good, as expected of Bailu's craftsmanship."

In fact, this kind of chicory can taste like wool, but it is still as bitter as before. I don’t know that Shen Wangshan and Qiumingyuan are full of praise every time they drink this tea. What's going on?

When Bai Lu heard this, she immediately puffed up her chest, with the expression of Bai Lu's most powerful master and best master.

Seeing Bai Lu's return, there was hot water and vitality in the room, and it was no longer so cold.Sitting there, Long Haoyue saw her take the broom to sweep the broken porcelain on the floor again, and couldn't help but continue to ask: "By the way, Bai Lu, you haven't told me yet, didn't you go to Kunlun Mountain for a trial? Why? You're back again?"

Bai Lu raised her head, because she bent down to sweep the broken porcelain pieces on the ground, a strand of hair on the temples around her ears fell down, hanging beside her bright and big eyes, she just looked at her and said, "Yes, at the time of day today, we So we assembled a team and followed Master Xu to Kunlun. But on the way, Master Xu heard that there was a monster in the village tonight in the stockade, so he tried to get rid of the poisonous spider and banshee."

Long Haoyue still looked confused, um, does eliminating demons have anything to do with you running back?

Bai Lu straightened her back, only tilted her head, and said with wide eyes, "Master Xu said that the poisonous spider banshee only likes to come and go in the dead of night. After making up the battle, Master Xu asked us to scatter around and move around as we wish. Let's gather again when it's at its peak, and we'll get rid of the demons together."

She blinked her eyes, and said embarrassedly: "Bai Lu missed Master, and thought that it was not far from Changliu, so she ran back. Seeing Master, Bai Lu can get rid of the demon with peace of mind."

Long Haoyue almost spit out a sip of tea, I'll wipe it off!You, you!

Isn't it tiring to run around for just two or three hours?Although it is Yujian, Yujian also needs effort, right?

Long Jiaoyue just sat on the chair, looking at Bai Lu who was busy clearing up the water on the ground, felt a pain in her heart, and said: "Come and sit down, drink some water."

Bai Lu smiled sweetly at her, continued to wipe the wet water, and only said, "Master, don't worry, Bai Lu is not tired."

Her sideburns were a little messed up during the journey, and they only hung lazily on her shoulders.Long Haoyue didn't pay attention just now, but now it seems that there is some dust on Bailu's clothes, and she looks a little tired.

She sat there and weighed it. If she didn't do anything like this, then she, Long Haoyue, would be too heartless.

She put down the teacup, before she could speak, Bai Lu wrung out the veil for mopping the floor, got up and hung it by the window sill.She turned her head to look at the gradually darkening sky outside, smiled apologetically at Long Jiaoyue, and said with some reluctance: "Master, Bai Lu should go."

Long Jiaoyue Xin said, shit, it's so fast, you've only been back for a few minutes?She only followed Bai Lu's eyes and looked at the setting sun outside the window. Although she had made up her mind, she just hummed indifferently.

Bai Lu looked at her, summoned up her courage for a while, and then groped from her bosom for a long time, and handed a bronze jasper mirror to the table next to Long Jiaoyue.

Long Jiaoyue looked at the peeping mirror that was given to Miss Bai Lu to visit the empress in the palace, a little puzzled, and only looked at Bai Lu.

Bai Lu only looked at her, and said somewhat embarrassingly but firmly, "There is a drop of Bai Lu's blood on it."

ah?Let your blood go?Then what are you doing in front of this chicory?Do you think Ben Chicory will miss you?Ben Chicory is not the type to peep in mirrors!

Taking another ten thousand steps back, peeping shouldn't be peeping at Ben Juju's female disciple, okay?

While Long Jiaoyue was slandering in her heart, she subconsciously put away the mirror, thinking that Ben Juju just wanted to see if her disciple was being bullied by Xu Langqing and other disciples in her daily life, or if she was injured in any way And grievances, Ben Juju will go to Fuyun Pavilion to kill Xu Langqing when he comes back.

Seeing the gratifying light in Bai Lu's eyes, it almost didn't fully illuminate Long Jiaoyue's petty thoughts.She just coughed and said: "This is for the safety of the master. If you encounter any troubles in Kunlun Mountain, the master can use this peeping mirror to find your location."

How could it be to ease the feelings of longing?Just kidding, is Ben Juju the kind of person who covets his apprentice?

Seeing Long Haoyue put away the peeping mirror, Bai Lu couldn't help but smile slightly.Alas, this wayward, arrogant and awkward master!

Seeing her putting away the mirror, Bai Lu told her how much the master cherishes her, and then walked outside.But Long Jiaoyue stood up and said to her, "Wait a minute."

Bai Lu didn't understand why she turned her head around, but saw Long Jiaoyue walking towards her, only holding her hand and walking towards the outside of Xianshu Peak.Long Haoyue only comforted herself that she had nothing to do staying on Xianshu Peak, so she might as well watch a live broadcast of exterminating demons and defending Taoism, so she took Bai Lu's hand and walked out the door, saying as she walked: "It's okay for the master to be idle here, so I will go with you to help Xu Langqing and eradicate that poisonous spider banshee."

Bai Lu was overjoyed, only being led by Long Haoyue to walk outside, she responded softly: "Master can accompany Bai Lu for a ride, Bai Lu is very happy."

This silly boy, why did he act like he was saying his last words?

Long Haoyue just offered sacrifices to the clouds and flew away, Bai Lu also followed closely behind her, raised the cold sword, turned into a sword light, and accompanied her closely.

Long Haoyue flew in the air, feeling depressed for a while.Didn't it be agreed that Xiaotuanzi left, and Ben Juju could live a carefree and refreshing life?Such a big bed can lie alone, get up whenever you want, and rest when you want, why did you follow Bai Lu to this remote place to get rid of demons out of nowhere?

Long Haoyue's current mood, except for what the hell am I doing, but looking at the tumbling blue sword light next to her, there is actually a bit of inexplicable joy.

It's fine for Bai Lu to be stupid, but her own master also has the cheek to be stupid together, alas, this is really a sweet trouble!

After flying a few sticks of incense, the night has grown heavy.In order to lead the way, Bai Lu had already flown in front of Long Jiaoyue, the two kept a close distance and only flew forward.

When Xu Langqing settled down for a long time to gather at the gathering place, there was already a circle of people gathered around.Long Jiaoyue jumped down, and Bai Lu's blue light also fell slowly, only falling in front of everyone.

Long Haoyue swept everyone's glances, she should recognize these people even if they didn't say anything.There were two people in Xifengtan before, one was Shen Xingnan, and the other was Yan Qing, the eldest disciple of Xu Langqing's subordinate.Everyone was a little surprised when they saw Long Haoyue leaping down from the clouds and coming uninvited.Xu Langqing stood in front of all the trial disciples, without looking at Long Jiaoyue, he first said to Bai Lu in a neutral tone: "It's too late."

Bai Lu nodded, and said respectfully, "Bai Lu's mistake will never be repeated in the future."

Only then did Xu Langqing turn his head, looking at Long Jiaoyue obviously dissatisfied: "Why did you follow?"

This tone is still polite.Long Haoyue just looked at him leisurely, and said with a hand: "I'm here to help you, how about it, it won't hinder you at all?"

Xu Langqing snorted, and turned around, leaving only the back of her head.Shen Xingnan came over resolutely, followed a few disciples, and respectfully called Master beside Long Jiaoyue.Long Jiaoyue was not angry at all, she just stood beside Bai Lu and asked Shen Xingnan, "What is your plan?"

When Bai Lu just saw Xu Langqing and Long Jiaoyue's confrontation, it was really funny, and she couldn't help shaking her head at her.Shen Xingnan leaned over to their Miss Longting's concubine, and said: "I heard from people in the village that the poisonous spider banshee likes to haunt at night and captures the handsome men she likes. Master Xu is going to set up a formation and pretend Be a night passerby to lure that poisonous spider banshee out."

When Long Jiaoyue heard about that handsome man, and that Xu Langqing was on her own, she almost lost her temper without laughing.Dare to feel that this poisonous spider banshee is a lecherous female devil, let alone Xu Langqing's spirit of sacrificing her life for righteousness, but pretending to be a handsome man, does Xu Langqing think too highly of herself?This poisonous spider banshee has no vision to recognize Xu Langqing as a handsome man.

(The text has something to say in the author)

Jiang Zhongxue felt that she would never forget the snow that day.

Snow, endless, fluttering snow, is spread in this dark world, covering all the dirty things of this dynasty, all the joys and sorrows of the world, all the joys and sorrows of the world, all the rich people's wine and meat, and the frozen bones on the roadside.

At the end of the heavy snow, Jiang Zhongxue opened his hands to block Qin Ruo's carriage.The heavy snow like goose feathers fell on her shoulders, on the top of her blue-black head, and on her blue-white and thin body.

That palm-sized face, in the heavy snow, in the frozen bones of the Zhumen singing and dancing, Shengping and the roadside, raised its head, shed tears, and rushed in front of the carriage without hesitation.

Because of this little orphan girl who didn't know what to do and who came out from nowhere like a frightened bird, the horse was frightened, raised its front hooves, and amidst the screams of the servant and the howling of the horse, the weak little girl was watching the next moment. The orphan girl will be blood splashed on the spot.

Qin Ruo, who was sitting in the carriage, saved her after all.

The little orphan girl had a pale face the size of a slap, tears streaming down her face silently.She said that she was from a poor mountain village outside Jinju City, her father's surname was Jiang, and she was only 11 years and four months old.

She said that her hometown was hit by a flood, and the government’s tax burden went up instead. Her younger brother got smallpox and couldn’t be saved. He took medicine every day and dragged on. Send her to Jinzhou City to be a servant girl for a rich family.How did you know that the big family had a hobby of child prostitution, she was beaten to death, and she ran out barefoot in such a world of ice and snow, only thinking that she would either be picked up by a kind person, or she would be bumped to death under the carriage, which is considered detached .

Sitting in the carriage, Qin Ruo looked about thirteen or fourteen years old, and his brows and eyes were as cold as water, and there was no wave in the slightest.She was sitting in the carriage with a heater in front of her, and she wiped her hands slowly with a handkerchief: "Die under my carriage? It costs three taels of silver to repair the axle, and five taels of silver to replace the screen fan. Maybe the blood splattered on me." I have to spend 11 taels of silver to buy a high-quality brocade silk to exchange for a new one, do you think you are worth the 19 taels of silver?"

The snow water rubbed on her hands when she was just picked up was wiped by the veil, and there was warmth in the air, and the snow water immediately melted into a cloud of dark and light water on the veil.The little orphan girl's bluish-white face was slightly rosy because of the heater in the carriage. Hearing this, her face was startled and terrified, she just shook her head in despair and said, "Slave, I can't afford it."

Throwing down the veil, Qin Ruo said calmly, "Since you know you can't afford it, then don't think about any other ways to kill yourself, and just follow me."

The light of hope is like the stars piercing the sky in the dark night, and a bright dawn suddenly appeared in Jiang Zhongxue's bleak life.Qin Ruo just sat in the back of the carriage, dignified and picturesque, quiet as water.She frowned and only said, "What's your name?"

The little orphan was as happy as in a dream, and when he heard her ask, he came back to his senses and said timidly: "My surname is Jiang, my pet name is Er Yao, my big name... I don't have a big name."

Qin Ruo looked at her.Most of the impoverished families in the villages don't know what to name their girls, they just say cheap names to make a living, and call them whatever you like.

She frowned, and only lowered her head to continue flipping through the ancient bamboo and wood slips she had been reading before: "I picked you up in the snow, so you should be called Zhongxue. Jiang Zhongxue, Jiang Zhongxue, the name is quite different." Not bad."

The little orphan read "Jiang Zhongxue" again curiously and timidly, and a strange feeling rose from her heart.

She has her own name since then, and it is still such a nice name. She is no longer an orphan without a name, nor is she a wisp of a lonely soul that no one cares about after she dies.Now she has a master, a name, a place to live, and finally a care to live with.

This pity from heaven caught people off guard, her chest seemed to be blocked by a warm thing, it was so warm that it made people panic, as if her throat was choked, she was crying, but drooping Head, dare not let Qin Ruo see it.Qin Ruo only held the scroll, looked up at her slightly, and said after a while, "I am Miss Jiu of General Yumen of Zhenguo Mansion, you will follow them from now on, just call me Miss Jiu."

Jiang Zhongxue raised her palm-sized face slightly, and said timidly, "Miss Jiu."

—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Spring and autumn come again.

The Jin Dynasty, which ruled the world, has finally come to an end.The reigning emperor was obsessed with the art of alchemy, sacrificed the blood of thousands of people to the sky, imposed taxes to build the Tongtian Terrace, and tried to impress the sky with sincerity, and sent Taoist priests and young children of gold and jade to the legendary Kunlun Mountains who lived on the top of thousands of mountains. The Queen Mother of the West seeks the law of immortality.

The common people complained, and the palace was peaceful with singing and dancing.While the rich wine and meat smell, the road with frozen bone.

The undercurrent of the Jin Kingdom government, the emperor's palace where everyone is in danger, and the reigning dying emperor struggled to grasp the last trace of power in their hands and strictly enforced the government.For a time, the courtiers were purged in the palace, more than a hundred courtiers were killed, and tens of thousands of innocent people were implicated.At the beheading place at the Meridian Gate outside the palace gate, blood flowed like a river, and crying was everywhere.

The day before Qin Ruo entered the palace, in the verandah where the water was flowing, where the bustle was like brocade, she only lightly raised a sword.

The night is as cool as water, and crickets chirp softly in the grass. In the dark night, stars twinkle, and there is an unknown fragrance of flowers in the air.

She only exhaled lightly, and danced the sword slowly.In the entire balcony as quiet as water, there are only white shadows and cold sword lights, flying up and down like fleeting shadows, accompanied by the fragrance of flowers in the air, making people intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves.

There was the faint sound of shoes covering the grass.Standing in the cluster of flowers, Jiang Zhongxue only raised her eyes slightly to look at her, her eyes were glistening, as if she could shed a tear at any moment.

She knew what Qin Ruo's purpose was here.

Entering the palace as a concubine is the best in the harem. With her aptitude, is there any beauty in the world who can match Qin Ruo's smile when she looks back, and which woman can have her decisive and sassy sword?

Then, after that, he sought power in the deep palace, gained trust, and gained favor. When the emperor relaxed his vigilance and got the qualification to dance with weapons and swords, he pierced his heart with a sword, took the life of the dog emperor, and punished the nine clans of the world. The guilt of the crime, the death of Huangquan.

Qin Ruo's black hair was like the blurred wind in the dark night, she breathed a sigh of relief, only put away her sword, and stood there quietly.Jiang Zhongxue was dressed in black, and she was dressed in white, one black and the other white, like two butterflies flying around in the dark night.

These years, Qin Ruo trusted her very much and treated her as a relative.She has a clean background, is smart and hardworking, and she can understand many things as long as she has a little knowledge.The shadow of the helpless and cowardly little orphan in her body gradually disappeared. She has been with her for a long time, and even her temper is similar to her. Li didn't know what was going on in his head, and he couldn't see what he was thinking.

Although Jiang Zhongxue seemed to be bored in everything, Qin Ruo put a million thoughts on her loyalty.

Qin Ruo put away her sword, and Jiang Zhongxue stood on the verandah, among the flowers, watching her quietly.

Qin Ruo glanced at her, then put his eyes back on the slightly sweaty palms of his sword practice, and asked indifferently, "Father, have they all been sent back to their hometown in Yuzhou City?"

Jiang Zhongxue hummed, Qin Ruo paused, and continued to ask, "When are you leaving?"

There was a trembling water in Jiang Zhongxue's eyes, his throat choked up, and it took a while before he said in a voice that was neither salty nor bland, without a trace of emotion: "Zhongxue doesn't want to leave."

Qin Ruo glanced at her, Jiang Zhongxue still had that quiet appearance, showing no mood swings.She only tried her best to restrain her heart that was about to collapse, and said softly to Qin Ruo: "Zhongxue can help Miss, Zhongxue is Miss's slave, born her slave, even if she dies, she should be Miss's ghost. "

By the end of the conversation, the voice had become slightly distorted with excitement.Consciously losing her composure, she stopped abruptly.After hesitating for a moment, she bit her lower lip lightly, and said to her in the most flat voice: "Zhongxue can enter the palace for Miss, and Zhongxue has also practiced swords, so Zhongxue can go for Miss."

Qin Ruo only looked at his hands.She withdrew her hand, raised her eyebrows and looked at the beautiful young girl in front of her, hummed in disappointment, and said, "So that's all you wanted to say?"

Jiang Zhongxue was stunned for a moment, but Qin Ruo didn't continue, but said coldly: "What I want to do, how can anyone else do it like you? You have already been released from slavery and become my father's righteous son." Daughter. Now that my father has just been released from prison, your duty is to take good care of my father and all relatives. Now instead of going to Yuzhou City with them, you are still here talking to me about things that are not serious, which really disappoints me."

Jiang Zhongxue's eyes were finally red, and her calm and calm appearance on weekdays was like broken porcelain.She only shed tears at Qin Ruo in a daze, and said without hesitation: "Miss, why didn't you run away with us! The master has already been released, why can't we run away together, to a place where there is no one, I..."

Her words stopped abruptly, Qin Ruo sneered suddenly, and only said: "Escape? Where are you going? Is there any king in the world? Tell me, if the dog emperor doesn't die, where can we escape?"

She just rolled her eyes coldly, sighed suddenly for a while, and only said: "Flee, how many people can escape from this palace and court hall. Which one of the people in this world is not suffering under the hands of this dog emperor?" .”

The snow in the river was falling, biting his lip dumbly, and said stubbornly: "The people in this world, the common people in this world, what does it matter to us?"

Qin Ruo just looked at her.The cool breeze that night carried the fragrance of flowers and women's body, lingering faintly at the tip of her nose.She only walked towards Jiang Zhongxue, and in the fragrance of flowers in the garden, she quietly stretched out her hand to her face full of tears: "In this world, there are you and me. I don't want to see it anymore, like you Such a poor child, crying with bare feet in such a snowy day."

Jiang Zhongxue raised her head suddenly, and the joy on her face was like a flower blooming in despair, which was heartbreakingly beautiful.A burst of severe pain came from her stamina, Qin Ruo supported her limp body, only looking at the two tear stains on that pretty face.

She sighed softly, her eyes turned red unknowingly, and said softly: "I understand what you want to say."

But understand, so what?

The night is shrouded in the sky, and the dawn is still unknown.She hugged Jiang Zhongxue who had fainted horizontally, with only a wry smile, a tear fell from her face and fell into the river
