Biography of Xi Shan

Chu Nantian stared at the wooden box in front of him in a daze, and there was a fetal brush lying in the box.He carefully took the brush out of the box, and gently touched the soft hair on it.

Suddenly, he laughed loudly: "Master really knows Chu the best."

It wasn't until there was a knock on the door that he came back to his senses and put away his pen.

The housekeeper bent over and walked in, saying: "Master, the guests are already here. There is news from the Eldest Young Master, saying that something happened on the way, maybe we won't arrive until tomorrow."

"Is it tight?"

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter." The housekeeper said quickly, "It's just that the young master couldn't come back in time, and I feel guilty."

Chu Nantian waved his hand: "You don't need to say good things for him. I understand Shenzhi's temper. He must have encountered trouble, otherwise he won't come back. Just ignore him, by the way, Mr. Jing can stay here."

"Stay here, stay here. The servant has asked the servant girl to bring some snacks and fruits over." The butler hurriedly responded, and then he was puzzled. The south courtyard was the courtyard where the young lady used to live. After the young lady disappeared, the master never let her go. How could an outsider be allowed to live in the courtyard now that someone touched it?However, this is not something he can ask, just think about it.

"You send someone to take care of him, don't let him be neglected."

"Hearts and bamboo are clever, so I will send them here," said the steward.

Chu Nantian frowned, and said: "Wait, forget it, forget it, don't treat him specially to make him feel uncomfortable, change my clothes for me, and go to meet the guests first."

The butler said yes.

When Chu Nantian arrived at the banquet hall, he looked around and saw Jing Ji sitting in an inconspicuous corner, he was satisfied and sad at the same time.His precious grandson was supposed to enjoy wealth and splendor, good clothes and good food, not to hide in a dark corner like his grandparents for generations.

Nan Tian sighed and glanced helplessly at his face.

Jing Ji on the other end didn't realize it, he was very happy today, although he ate well in the sect, but most of them were bland, after all, martial arts practitioners don't care about appetite, and they eat such rich dishes like today for several years less than once.

Sitting next to him was a local squire, who greeted him very politely. At first, Jing Ji was able to answer a few words, but when the woman next to her asked him if he was married, he blushed completely, na na He was speechless, just kept shaking his head, but the woman saw that he was handsome, so she wanted to introduce her niece to him, which almost made him run away.

After finally surviving the banquet, Jing Ji hurried back to the room.

He lay on the bed and took out the flute to play with, and carefully stroked the jade ring on the sword tassel. The jade ring had been rubbed for many years, and the lines had become blurred. Jing Ji stretched out his index finger across the jade ring, and smiled unconsciously. stand up.

Jing Ji sighed, remembering the scene where he was grabbing steamed buns with his senior brothers in the Xishan School, and every time he snatched them, the senior senior brother would laugh at him for being a coward. He didn't believe it at the time, but from today's perspective, the senior senior brother really It is true.

Jing Ji clicked his tongue and said, "I'm really the one in the nest."

He hugged Yuxiao in his arms, rubbed his face on the sword ear, and almost fell asleep in a daze, "I don't know if Senior Brother Chen still remembers me."

At this time, there was a knock on the door suddenly.

Jing Ji woke up suddenly, he went to open the door, and it was Chu Nantian standing outside the door.

Seeing his messy hair, Chu Nantian laughed and said, "Did you go to bed so early?"

Jing Ji scratched his head in embarrassment: "Why is Senior Chu here? Senior come in and sit down."

Chu Nantian said: "I have a few words that I want you to pass on to the ancestor, and by the way, thank the ancestor for his congratulatory gift."

Jing Ji brewed tea and said, "Of course I can. However, I have other things to do when I go down the mountain. It may take a while before I go back."

Chu Nantian stared at him intently. Seeing Jing Ji's puzzled face, he suddenly regained consciousness and lowered his voice, "Nine days travel, gods and ghosts are unpredictable, the south is broken, and snow turns into spirits. Remember, this sentence can only be said by the master." Zu, you can't tell anyone."

"Senior Chu, don't worry, this junior will definitely bring the words to you." Jing Ji said seriously.

Chu Nantian smiled loudly: "Good boy, good boy, Jing Shaoxia is young and promising, and he will become a great weapon in the future. Chu Mou wishes you a safe life and everything you wish will come true."

Jing Ji smiled shyly, "Borrow a good word from Senior Chu."

Chu Nantian looked at him and sighed, and said: "It's getting late, Chu has gone back first, you should rest well, and if you have something to tell the servants, you don't have to be polite, just treat it... just treat it as your own." Home."

Jing Ji frowned: "Thank you, Senior Chu."

Chu Nantian walked out of the yard slowly, the hero who once stood upright and responded to everyone, now he is old and his back is desolate.

Not long after Chu Nantian left, a servant girl brought hot water and refreshments. Jing Ji was flattered and took a hot bath. He was really frightened by Chu Nantian's enthusiasm today.However, he changed his mind again, maybe this is the businessman's way of hospitality, which is different from those in the martial arts world.

Jing Ji changed his clothes, saw the moon was clear, and was about to go to the yard to practice swords for a while, but suddenly heard a strange wind.

Jing Ji frowned, and quietly hid his body in the shadow of the corner of the wall. He has practiced in the secret realm of the fantasy sea for more than ten years. Although his martial arts accomplishments are not outstanding, his five senses have become very sharp. You can see bugs ten meters away, and you can hear the wind a hundred meters away, which is closely related to the treacherous, changeable and sinister environment of the Mystery of the Illusory Sea.

There are people nearby, not only people, but also masters.

Jing Ji frowned suspiciously, since Senior Chu didn't have contact with people from Jianghu, how could there be such a master in the mansion.

Although Jing Ji's five senses are sensitive, if it wasn't for the quiet and peaceful night, he might not be able to detect abnormalities.

The surroundings suddenly became calm, as if everything was Jing Ji's illusion.He stepped out of the shadow and looked solemnly at the house across the pond, but before he could make up his mind, he had already involuntarily walked towards the opposite side of the pond.

He hesitated for a moment, but pushed the door open anyway.

The door lock was very old, and the wooden door creaked when it was pushed open. It was a woman's boudoir, and the pink bed curtain was stained with dust. There was a dressing table on the right side of the room. The bronze mirror clearly reflects the layout of the room.

Jing Ji blinked, and fixed his eyes on the bronze mirror.

He turned around slowly and walked towards the dressing table.It was a bronze mirror in a girl's boudoir. The bronze mirror was covered with dust, the gemstones inlaid around it were dim, and the silver comb beside the bronze mirror was covered with cobwebs.

Jing Ji moved his face closer, and saw himself clearly in the mirror.

Suddenly, Jing Ji gasped for breath, and another face slowly appeared behind the young man in the mirror, and a long sword was already placed on his shoulder.

It was an indistinguishably beautiful face, with jet-black long hair flowing down, coquettish and soft features, a pair of peach blossom eyes that seemed to be a smile but not a smile, but the smile on the corner of the lips made one feel sinister and sinister.

"You are so smart that you can detect my whereabouts. Chu Nantian and Wulin have now drawn a clear line, but they entertain you alone." The corner of the man's mouth provoked without a trace, "Who are you?"

The sword was attached to Jing Ji's neck, and as long as he moved, his head would be decapitated.

Jing Ji rolled his eyes, and said in a pitiful voice: "I just passed by here, and when I saw Senior Chu's birthday, I begged for a drink. Senior Chu has high morals, so naturally he wouldn't turn me away. I can't do that. It happened to be here, hero, please spare me."

The other end raised his face slightly, looking at the boy with displeasure.

Jing Ji frowned, and looked in the mirror, only to see that the man was dressed in red, squinting slightly and looking at him with a look full of contempt.

Jing Ji secretly thought it was not good, this person is definitely not a good stubble.

He pursed his lips, looking at the bronze mirror that he was about to touch, his heart sank.

I can only take a gamble.

Jing Ji suddenly said: "Beauty, please be merciful."

Sure enough, the man's gaze turned hard, his eyes filled with killing intent, but at this moment, Jing Ji stretched out his hand, and the palm of his hand was pressed against the mirror.

There was a heavy friction sound caused by the movement of the wall in the room, and the wall behind the dressing table gradually moved away, revealing a narrow passage that only allowed one person to pass through.

Everything was as expected by Jing Ji, when he first stepped into this room, he had already discovered the special feature of this mirror.The entire room was covered with a thick layer of dust, and the corners were already covered with cobwebs. This was obviously a room that had not been taken care of for a long time, but this mirror was clean and bright, shining brightly under the moonlight. .

At the moment when the young man in red was astonished, Jing Ji got rid of his threat flexibly and quickly got into the secret passage!Jing Ji turned around and squeezed his eyes at Hong Yi, and then his whole body merged into the darkness.

The young man in red didn't move at all, he slowly withdrew his sword, and a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, which was a kind of confidence that he was bound to win when dealing with his prey.
