Xiao Han [Shooting Condor]

As soon as these words came out, Xie Yao and Cheng Ying were both stunned.

Xie Yao was stunned for a moment, and said, "I thought you would help me... Hey, it seems that I guessed wrong."

Huang Yaoshi glanced at him with a smile, and asked back: "Could it be that you are her master, so you won't help?" Xie Yao also understood at this moment, and couldn't help laughing: "Yes, I will definitely help." Thanks to Huang Yaoshi Knowing his character, he will take Cheng Ying as his apprentice, and he will treat him wholeheartedly. In this way, Huang Yaoshi himself will be much more relaxed.

"Ying'er, what are you still doing in a daze? Why don't you come to see Master?"

Cheng Ying was hesitating, but Huang Yaoshi had already spoken, and Xie Yao didn't mean to dislike her. He breathed a sigh of relief, and prostrated herself at Xie Yao's feet: "Disciple Cheng Ying, pay homage to Master."

Xie Yao raised his hand to support her, with a smile in his eyes, he said: "You entered my Xia family because of a bet made by Brother Yao, if you have any unhappy things in the future, just tell me."

Cheng Ying smiled slightly, raised her eyes and said yes.

Xie Yao nodded, and continued: "You have three senior brothers, first senior brother Shentu Xingchong and second senior brother Ding Yue, who are now doing chivalry and fighting for righteousness. Third senior brother Yang Guo is still studying and practicing martial arts in another sect, and they are all younger than you. You are old, I will let them come back after a while and give you a good introduction."

Cheng Ying never thought that she would have three senior brothers, so she opened her eyes wide and nodded.

The three chatted for a while in the gazebo, and went back to their rooms to rest at night.

In the next morning, Cheng Ying made porridge and side dishes, went to Huang Yaoshi's room to invite him, but when he opened the door, he saw that the bedding was neatly made, and Huang Yaoshi had disappeared.After all, Cheng Ying has been Huang Yaoshi's apprentice for four years, and he knows his unrestrained personality, so it's not surprising.

She hesitated for a while, then turned to Xie Yao's room again, and gently raised her hand to knock on the door: "Master? Are you up for dinner?" Cheng Ying called a few times, but no one answered in the room. She looked at the sun and held back. The eyebrow asked strangely: "Could it be that... Master is still on the lazy bed?"

If Xie Yao was still sleeping, Cheng Ying didn't dare to disturb her, so she could only walk back with a sigh.

In the early morning, the sun was shining brightly, and the forest was extremely quiet, except for the slight sound of footsteps on the soil.Not far away, Cheng Ying glanced, and suddenly saw Xie Yao standing under the peach tree with his hands behind his back, with a gloomy look on his brows.The sunlight was filtered by layers of petals, and leaked onto him, turning into a light round and swaying halo.

"Master?" Cheng Ying stepped forward and called softly.

Xie Yao didn't seem to hear it, he sighed after a long time, and said to himself: "More than ten years ago, several of my masters died here."

Cheng Ying let out a low "ah" when he heard the words, and asked, "Did you die on Peach Blossom Island?"

Xie Yao nodded, pointed to the tomb not far away, and narrated: "Back then, there were two masters hidden in the tomb, and they launched a sneak attack, but I was not good enough in martial arts, so I had to watch the disaster happen. My master treated me very well. Well, when I was dying, I was tricked into taking a Turtle Breathing Pill, and those thieves thought I was dead too, and I have survived until now.” Cheng Ying didn’t know why he took the initiative to tell himself this matter, just Wanting to ask, I saw Xie Yao smiling at her from the side: "So don't worry, I treat my apprentice just like my teacher treated me back then."

Cheng Ying immediately realized that Xie Yao's words were just to dispel her concern, Cheng Ying quickly shook her head: "Master, I don't mean that!"

Xie Yao smiled and said: "Well, Brother Yao also told me some things about you before he left. He asked you to worship me as a teacher, not because he didn't want to be your master, but because Brother Yao is used to the days of idle clouds and wild cranes. It is inconvenient to take you by my side; and you are not good at martial arts, and it is not safe for a girl to walk around the rivers and lakes, so understandable?"

Cheng Ying understood the meaning after thinking about it carefully. She blinked and said, "Master is thinking of me after all." When she said this, she raised her eyes to Xie Yao, "Master, you are too."

Xie Yao laughed, suddenly remembered something, and beckoned to Cheng Ying: "Ying'er, come, see if you can take advantage of it." He took out a jade flute from his sleeve and handed it over.

Seeing that Yuxiao was stunned for a long while, Cheng Ying's face was overjoyed, and after a while, he took it with both hands, holding the jade flute fondly, touching it again and again, "Thank you, Master!"

"I smashed your jade flute yesterday, and I feel really ashamed for my master. I asked Brother Yao for a piece of jade early in the morning, and it was polished like this, but it is not as delicate as your original jade flute."

Hearing this, Cheng Ying raised her head to look at him again, and said softly, "Master, you really have a heart." She didn't respect Xie Yao yesterday, but now she just got along with him a few times, and she is really convinced.

Immediately, the jade flute was brought close to his lips, and he played it lightly. In the melodious sound of the flute, the peach blossoms were flying and the willows were fluttering, which was really pleasant to the ear.

"People in the world don't understand the meaning of the blue sea, but they all know that this tide is the most magnificent." Xie Yaoyin paused for a while, "Your song, "Bi Hai Chaosheng", is quite different from Brother Yao's artistic conception."

Cheng Ying didn't expect him to be able to understand Xiaoyi, and couldn't help asking: "Then what kind of mood am I?"

Xie Yao gave her a worried look with a smile: "Little daughter, what's the point of thinking, why do you need to talk about artistic conception?" Cheng Ying couldn't help but hugged Yu Xiao tightly in her arms, bowed her head and smiled without answering.

※※※

Xie Yao still remembered the fact that Guo Jing left the book, and Cheng Ying also missed her cousin, so the two packed their things and prepared to leave the island.

Guo Jing wrote to Xie Yao, and there might be other important matters to discuss, so Xie Yao would naturally go to Xiangyang.But Cheng Ying only knew that her cousin Lu Wushuang had escaped from Li Mochou's hands, but her whereabouts were unknown, so the master and apprentice rushed to Xiangyang together first, and inquired about the whereabouts of Lu Wushuang, Li Mochou and others on the way.

Passing through Qiantang at dusk that day, the river was surging, thick and thick, and the evening wind was blowing on your face, making you feel refreshed.

"Your cousin, how old is younger than you? What color clothes do you like to wear?" Xie Yao was not in a hurry, and simply strolled along the riverside with Cheng Ying, unconsciously talking about Lu Wushuang.

At this time, because he was going to Xiangyang, he was afraid of being recognized by others, and he had a scar on his face.But Cheng Ying had a delicate mind, so she just smiled and didn't ask.

Cheng Ying thought for a moment, and replied: "She is only half a year younger than me, and she likes to wear white clothes, but I don't know if she still likes it after all these years."

Xie Yao nodded slightly: "Then what are the characteristics of her?"

Cheng Yingdao: "When Li Mochou came here, my uncle was afraid that my cousin and I would be killed by the devil, so he tore a handkerchief with red flowers and green leaves in two, one for me and one for her. Mo Chou hesitated a little bit, so I was saved by Master."

Knowing that she was referring to Huang Yaoshi, Xie Yao stretched out his hand and said, "Did you bring that brocade handkerchief with you? Let me see."

"It's always been there." Cheng Ying said, and took out half of the brocade handkerchief from his bosom. Even after many years, the silk and satin is still smooth and soft, and the embroidery of red flowers and green leaves is delicate and charming.

Xie Yao touched the material carefully, recalled the brocade handkerchief that Li Mochou knocked down at Lu Zhanyuan and He Yuanjun's wedding hall that day, and said clearly: "No wonder the look is familiar, so the owner of Lu Zhuang never gave it back to her."

Cheng Ying heard him mention Lu Zhanyuan, and couldn't help asking: "Master, is it the first time Li Mochou came to seek revenge, and you were also there?" Xie Yao nodded, and was about to speak, when suddenly he heard a loud commotion on the pier, and couldn't help it. looked over there.
