Crown Sword

Chao Chen is a fastidious person, when he arrived in front of the Baopingkou wine inn, the door was locked, so he went around to the backyard to find the shop owner to ask for fresh water to wash his face, and waited until he was fully dressed before going to meet up in a hurry.

But as soon as he pushed the bamboo door to enter, he saw that the hall was not peaceful. Looking to the left, Gong Yangyue raised his hand to touch the bamboo chopsticks, and raised his eyes with murderous eyes. I don't know what kind of conflict happened, the girl couldn't think about it, and even moved the sword.

Red-eyed in the sea of ​​bamboo, he didn't slow down, and if he really wanted to hit it, the thin bamboo chopsticks would either poke his eyes or explode his brain.

Chao Chen wanted to save him, so he quickly pretended to run in a hurry, stumbled into it, and while he was panting for breath, he swung his sleeves and swept the chopsticks and bamboo tubes to the ground.Gong Yangyue took a look, took the table water that Xiao Erduan was holding nearby, splashed it on Fang Jing, and then hummed: "I'll just say this once, your senior sister is drunk, hurry up and carry it back."

Ji Ci heaved a sigh of relief, and crossed his arms: "Yes, yes, yes."

"What are you doing to him?" Fang Jing was so confused that she even hit her own people, and the short sword hung up and sliced ​​towards her companion's hand.The young man was afraid, so he let her go, pointing at someone and yelling: "Who do you think you are, Gongyangyue, you are just a person who is not even qualified to participate in the sword ceremony!"

Chao Chen wiped away his sweat.

The girl in front of her was obviously bored in the mountains for a long time, and her information was blocked. Even Xuan Zhidu couldn't do anything with Gongyangyue. She rushed forward and couldn't get enough of her teeth.

Gong Yangyue laughed instead, tilting her head to tease Chao Chen: "Is there a familiar feeling?"

Fang Jing chooses to ignore the rumors in the world, but it doesn't mean that everyone else is a fool. The Zhou brothers and sisters don't favor Gong Yangyue, but at least they know that they have no chance of winning against him, so they follow the fight.Ji Ci even stood in front of him, trying his best to smile: "Senior Sister, don't say a few words! Senior Brother Yue, you are right, if you are drunk, let's go, then..."

"Snapped--"

A loud slap came over, Ji Ci covered his face in disbelief.

When Gongyangyue Jiangu was studying arts, Ji Ci was still a baby, and he followed people around begging for sweets all day long. After Gongyangyue left, no one spoke out, except Ji Ci.There is a saying in the valley that you can't kill each other. Fang Jing thought he was not pleasing to the eye, and wanted to clean up but didn't find a chance, but now she gave him a mouthful.

She rubbed her palms, with the words "wo liheng" written on her face: "Ji Ci, what do you mean, are you a disciple of Jiangu? You are like a dog wagging its tail now, you want to be his dog? Don't Pull in others and drop the price!"

The scolding was quite ugly, Shuang Li forgot to cry out for pain, and only felt that the boy was really pitiful.

"Go away!" Fang Jing pushed her hand, drew her sword, and slashed at her face.

Chao Chen wanted to avoid him, but was pushed back to his seat by Gong Yangyue.I saw that red shadow stepping up the table, pulling out the "Yucheng Snow Ridge" and cutting it off——

"Ding--"

Fang Jing didn't even see how he did it. When she came back to her senses, the dagger that she had been holding for many years had been cut off from the sword collar, not much, not a little bit, and the whole process was as long as one move.

"Impossible!" Fang Jing backed away in astonishment, but her waist and eyes were blocked by an invisible force.

Gong Yangyue turned around, picked up Ji Ci, and at the same time grabbed his wrist and slapped him: "I never do anything to women, but you shouldn't hit him, so he will pay you back."

Immediately, Fang Jing's left cheek was swollen, and there were five fingerprints on her fair skin.

The crisp sound of the slap blasted the whole room, even the Tao Tao Jiang Yin was inferior.The disciples of Jiangu were all invincible, and those curious guests who sat down and probed their brains hurriedly retracted their necks, stooped, pretended to stuff a few mouthfuls of food, or poured two glasses of wine, in short, they dared not speak again, let alone stand out.

The brothers and sisters of the Zhou family sighed, and Ji Ci was caught in the middle, and even the first and second elders——

Fang Jing is the fifth of the seven elders of Sword Valley, the disciple and grandson of "Lacking Moon Sword" Gu Xue.Back then, Gu Xue responded to Gong Yangchi's call, joined the WTO and traveled to Kyushu, and threw Fang Qiyuan, the only disciple under his sect, at Yunshentai. Ying died together in front of Fu Rong's horse.

At the end of the day, the master and apprentice had no chance to see each other again. Gu Xue thought of the decades of debt she owed, so she took extra care of her daughter.

When Fu Jian went south, war broke out on three fronts, and he hit Shuzhong hard.All the people in Jian Valley went down the mountain to rescue the disaster, and when they endured the great victory in Feishui, they were already seriously injured.The Seven Elders of Jian Valley have been busy with internal affairs and recuperation these years, and they have almost stopped accepting apprentices and teaching arts. Like Gu Xue, he is actually alone.

Fortunately, Fang Jing has a good foundation, works hard, and is righteous to outsiders, so she is gradually regarded as the successor of the Seventh Elder.When fellow disciples are praised highly, their spirits will also float, and this is how they develop a nonchalant, arrogant and mean temperament.

But these kinds of "bad deeds" are actually only verbal. People in the valley at most keep them at a respectful distance, and never hate them. It's the first time Ji Ci has been beaten.The reason why encountering the Ram Moon Queen is like being insane, although there is no real reason, but there are some whispers among peers.

To put it bluntly, it is nothing more than a love word.

Xia Houjin, the fourth of the seven elders, has an eldest grandson named Xia Houzhen, who is quite old, and his peers should respect him as a senior brother.Among the sects, Xiahou is really recognized as one of the "five good" people with good martial arts, good temper, good looks, good popularity, and good background. Everyone likes him, including Fang Jing.

But in the end no one got him, he died in a rainy night in the 15th year of Taiyuan.

Fang Jing was stunned, she didn't understand that in the sword ceremony five years ago, Gong Yangyue was only slightly better, but five years later, the martial arts of the two were very different.She held up her beloved sword, looked at the pale face and chapped lips reflected in the sword, laughed silently, her mind was dizzy, she held the broken blade and stabbed again.

Gong Yangyue turned her hand to restrain her, but the sharp weapon tore through the clothes and chopped on the sword hanger, and the "Merry Boneless" sword, which was twisted into two pieces by the wire around the beam, fell to the ground with a clatter.

"Yucheng Snow Ridge" was on her neck, but the girl didn't flinch. She put her hands on the ground halfway forward and picked up "Merry Boneless", hugged her in her arms, and cried bitterly: "Everyone is dead, but you don't cherish it." His sword, are you worthy of his spirit in the sky?"

Chao Chen hesitated to speak.

The veins on Fang Jing's neck popped out, her red eyes glared and said, "Kill me too if you have the ability."

Gong Yangyue rubbed the center of her eyebrows, without letting go, turned around and kicked back two long tables, tremblingly said: "Get out!"

Fang Jing bit her lip, holding on to "Merry Boneless".

"Leave the sword, you, get out!"

The murderous intent couldn't be more obvious. Thinking of what Gongyangyue did in Mianzhu in a fit of rage, the Zhou brothers and sisters and Ji Ci couldn't help but shudder, and hit Fang Jing's brain point together, knocking people unconscious .

When Ji Ci and Zhou Bihai resisted them away, Zhou Qingcen turned around and walked up to Shuangli, bowed and apologized: "This girl, I'm sorry, Senior Sister is not usually... In short, please bear with me and just treat her as me." I owe you a favor, if you need anything, you can find me in Room [-] of Dizi."

As he said, he stuffed some money in the past. Looking at the purse, it should be a little decent.

"Do you dare to do it or not? You shouldn't come if you want to apologize." Shuang Li rarely saw Qian's eyes open, so he sent her to leave quickly, and returned the golden sore medicine he picked up, "One yard is one yard, old Phoenix There is no reason to return the things that are sent out.”

"This……"

Qingcen still wanted to decline, but Gongyangyue said coldly: "Do you need me to say something nice? It's the same as back then."

Hearing this, Zhou Qingcen's face turned livid, and he shook his head frequently: "No, there's no need." Then, he fled from here as if he had wings.

Gongyangyue's silence is more terrifying than talking. Once he speaks, whether it is sarcasm or sarcasm, it indicates that he will not take it easily again.

Shuang Li, who was well versed in this principle, sat down and asked in a low voice, "What happened back then?"

Gong Yangyue put away his sword, knelt down and drank, one cup after another, not intending to reminisce, let alone talk about it.But after drinking for three rounds, he suddenly turned around to look for the broken sword. Chao Chen was careful, and had already put it away, and tied the broken sword with a very ugly knot.

When handing it forward, Gong Yangyue obviously noticed the ugly knot, his eyes lit up, but he still didn't speak, and only quickly pulled it away.

Not long after, he stopped his glass of wine and said quietly: "There is a guy who is very likable. Those cowards who secretly admired him didn't dare to say so, so they offered me a hand and lent me a hand, just because I have a close relationship with him."

Several people looked at each other, confused, especially Chao Chen.He knows that Gongyangyue is moody, but he doesn't know that he has reached this point. Although he may be cheating, if he can accomplish something good, it will not hurt morality.

Gong Yangyue put the broken sword in front of the jug, holding the wine glass, motionless.To others, it is not worth mentioning, but to him at that time, it was a moment of hope and moment of disappointment——

Tuoba Shiyiqian was defeated, Fu Jian destroyed the dynasty, and became the master of the cloud. His father, Gong Yangqi, disappeared for some reason. save.But although Li Zhouyang is the master of the valley, he still has an old rift with Jiangu, and he lives in Zhuhai all the year round, while he was sent to Jiangu because of his status as the grandson of Gongyang Chi.

The Seventh Elder gave him food, lodging, and art, but that's all. When it comes to feelings, they are neither hot nor cold.If it is said that the older generation talks about Taoism and self-cultivation, it can be justified if they don't care about these trivial things, but the younger generation rarely interacts with him.The outer disciples kept him at a respectful distance, while the inner disciples regarded him as nothing, and every person and situation was neither good nor bad.

No swearing, no insults, but no warmth, no intimacy either.

He's just borderline.

For a ten-year-old boy, his self-esteem made him more resistant and less caring, while his inferiority complex made him vulnerable and restless, thinking day and night about what was wrong with him.

Once upon a time, Gongyangyue also longed to be part of it, to be able to share the joys and sorrows with others, so when that day came, when everyone showed kindness to him, he was full of hope, treated each other with sincerity, and tried hard to suppress the pain in his heart. Resist, learn to greet everyone with a smile, and also learn the customs of the south, eat rice dumplings at the Dragon Boat Festival, enjoy the moon during the Mid-Autumn Festival, cook porridge in Laba, and learn to play games that everyone of the same age loves.

But in the end, it was discovered that it was just a lie——

"If it wasn't for Senior Brother Xiahou, who would talk to that lunatic."

"Master said that his mother was Little Senior Aunt Feng, but I heard that Little Senior Aunt was killed by his father. His father is not a thing. After entering the Dai Kingdom, he married another person. Who knows if it is that bitch... Alas, it's a pity that I only wanted to give the cakes I made to senior brother Xiahou, but unfortunately I have to leave a copy for him, it's really better to feed them to the dogs."

……

"You know, I bumped into him yesterday, and he asked me when I would go to Baiyuanxi to dig crabs together. Lord God, I clearly wanted to ask Brother Xiahou to compete with each other last time. With sharp eyesight, it’s true!”

"Hey! Just don't take him seriously. I found that in front of Senior Brother Xiahou, he usually doesn't refuse people. I asked him to practice swords with him a while ago, and he really gave it to me. Who am I? Everyone took care of any good things he gave, and just tossed them into pieces and threw them into the latrine."

……

"Chao Chen."

Gong Yangyue crushed the cup and turned her head to look at the people around her.

Chao Chen was wary, but did not express his opinion.

Gong Yangyue leaned over slowly under the eyes of everyone, lifted the hem of his clothes in front of his knees with the back of his hand, picked up the chopsticks on the ground, picked out half of the dusty ones and threw them away, and put the rest back on the table with a blank expression. .

Cui Tanfeng was still lost in thought in Cai Cai's words just now, Qiao Min never meddled, only Shuang Li cast a sympathetic look at Chao Chen.In the past, she was the one who was being scolded, but now someone finally took over.

Chao Chen's heart is clear.

It was so clumsy when he entered the door that Gong Yangyue couldn't see that there was something wrong with it, so he settled it if he wanted to, and since he did it, he had no regrets.It's not a good thing for Chao Chen. He only listened to half of it when he came, but he can get a general idea of ​​the situation. If he really does get started, even if the house is not demolished, the desks, desks and cabinets will not be repaired, but most of them can be repaired, which means that the other party did not preempt hands on.Although he felt sorry for Shuang Li for being hit for nothing, he didn't hurt his bones. Fang Jing really deserved to die. To kill someone for such a thing is a bit too much. As for how Fang Jing treats her companions, it's their internal business. There is no reason for outsiders to intervene too much.

With an open heart, he didn't have any anxiety, so Chao Chen sat upright and let him ridicule him.

But the ram moon side just didn't say anything.

Chao Chen was about to faint from hunger, and just in time, the restaurant's heavy stew was out of the oven, and there were tables on the table. He hurriedly raised his voice to greet him, went to the table first, then took the chopsticks, and wiped it off with a towel: "What's your temper, man? Still have to wait for you to eat? You don’t speak, but you just move your chopsticks.”

"I didn't say you can't eat it, it's delicious."

Xiao Er put down a pot of pig's trotters.

How do you hold the chopsticks?

Chao Chen retracted his hand, and was slapped by Gong Yangyue, so he had to throw away the tool to start, but the pig's trotter was too big to chop, and he took one, and it felt very rude to bite left and right.

The atmosphere became more and more strange. Cui, Qiao and others who were still thinking about the conflict between Gongyangyue and Jiangu all turned their heads and started watching Chao Chen gnawing pig's trotters.This emotion even spread to the onlookers, all of them craned their necks to see what tricks the red-clothed swordsman was playing. As for the fearsome devil himself, the people were generally more curious about what to talk about around him.

Gong Yangyue wasn't interested in any steaming food, she just rested her chin on one hand and looked at him without blinking: "You eat, I'll watch."

Chao Chen was very uncomfortable, let alone talking.

"Who ordered the pig's feet?" Gong Yangyue asked with a smile.

"Ah?" Shuang Li shook his head, "No one ordered."

Puchi Puchi, the waiter, ran over and hurriedly grabbed the plate: "Oh, it's the wrong table."

After Chao Chen listened, he grabbed the other end of the plate.He wanted to say a few words, but the meat stuffed in his mouth choked his throat, he didn't swallow it, and looked up hurriedly, his mouth was full of oil.Gong Yangyue finally couldn't hold back her laughter: "Add this dish, you give it to him, he loves it."

"What's so funny?" Chao Chen was not convinced, and said casually, "If you can stop eating a mouthful of greasy food, I will... I will be your servant for a day, without any objection."

——Brother Chao, you forgot, don't bet with Lao Yue, you will definitely lose!

Shuang Li tried her best to wink at him, but she almost waved her arms and legs.

Gong Yangyue smiled slightly, touched Chao Chen's waist, borrowed a dagger, sliced ​​off the meat from the hoof, picked it up with chopsticks, dipped it in the sauce and ate it: "How about it?"

"Hmph." Chao Chen turned his face away, and carefully wiped off the stain on his mouth.

"Don't thank me." Gong Yangyue doesn't like to eat this kind of fatty food, after only two mouthfuls, he frowned, forced to exchange dishes with Chao Chen, and gave them to him.

Chao Chen looked down at the food on the plate with a strange expression: "You don't want to eat?"

"Yes, don't eat," Gongyang Yue pretended to be sad, "Do you want to know why?"

——Brother Chao, don't listen, don't listen!

Shuang Li folded his hands in front of his chest, desperately hinting, but Chao Chen was completely indifferent, didn't even look at it, and waited for the next sentence in a daze.

Gongyangyue was still moral, and caring about the others, she just leaned forward and whispered to Chao Chen who was wielding his chopsticks: "Of course it's because I've killed people."

"Pa-ta--" the bamboo chopsticks fell to the ground, and Chao Chen stroked his stomach-filled chest, and rushed towards the riverside railing.

Just now, a new customer came from outside, and bumped into him head-on, looked at it as he walked, scratching his head, feeling amused: "How many dishes, drink like this? Doesn't it mean that the Huanglong wine in Sichuan is not intoxicating?" Turning his head, he was facing Gong Yangyue's face with "happy" written all over her face couldn't help but "hissed" and said angrily, "I'm just, a little, curious."

Gong Yangyue said coldly: "What are you looking at, what's so strange, I haven't seen it when I'm pregnant."

(The one who takes the blame is always Gongyangyue, and the one who is bullied is always Chao Chen)
