[Sword Three + Lu Xiaofeng] The Crane Returns to the Lonely Mountain

not regret

Ye Dange was taken aback for a moment, but then laughed silently, calmly bowed once again, and said unhurriedly:

"All sentient beings are suffering because of ignorance. The killing in the world is all in the human heart, and it does not increase or decrease because of the number of swords. The teacher once said that there is no difference between swords, but it is different because of different people who use them. People should know that it is not the sword that controls people, but that people control the sword. Doing good or evil is all in the heart. The master is merciful, but Dan Ge is just a layman. He loves the sword and becomes crazy, so he forges the sword; if he wants to protect the person who wants to protect, Therefore, holding a sword—to stop killing by killing, although I don’t know right or wrong, I want to have a clear heart. If someone uses the sword I forged to do unrighteous things, I will never stand by and watch.”

"There are countless dead souls under my sword, and I asked myself when there was no one in the middle of the night, but—" Ye Dange paused, the smile on his face became calmer, and he looked at Yuankong calmly, and then Slowly said, "I ask myself that I have never killed a person by mistake in my life. If I get entangled in killing karma in the future, I will not die well in life, and fall into hell after death. I will have no regrets, no regrets, and no complaints."

In the battle under Chang'an City, she had already lost count of how many people she had killed.Do those rebels deserve to die?She didn't know that they were the same beings as her. They also had family members and friends, and they just obeyed orders... But she had to kill them, without the slightest hesitation or softness—if she didn't kill them, the Great Tang Dynasty would be destroyed in an instant. The time will fall, and the unarmed and innocent people in the city may never see the dawn of the next day...

She has no regrets and no shame.

Ye Gucheng was standing by Ye Dange's side, his eyes were downcast and his head was turned sideways, and his eyes were on her side face—delicate features, beautiful eyebrows, but Gu Panjian carried a kind of heroic spirit that is rarely seen in women, his eyes were clear and calm, and his eyes Full of calm and firmness, after finishing speaking, he just looked at the old monk opposite quietly, without any anxiety or apprehension.She obviously didn't bring a sword today, but for some reason, he seemed to feel a trace of awe-inspiring sword intent from her, and couldn't move his eyes for some reason.

Ye Gucheng's eyes darkened, but he simply looked at her like this, but there was a hint of surprise and appreciation in his indifferent eyes—a person with no regrets, no regrets, and no resentment.

The old monk didn't seem to expect Ye Dange to answer like this, he was startled for a moment, but then he finally came back to his senses, stroked his beard and smiled, pointed to the spring water, and made a "please" gesture: "So, it's okay I can't see through it. Although the benefactor is a woman, the grandeur in her chest is really admirable. I have offended you a lot before, and I hope you will forgive me. Ye benefactor, please."

……

"I ask myself that I have never killed a person by mistake in my life. If I get entangled in killing karma in the future, I will not die well in life, and fall into hell after death. I will have no regrets, no regrets, and no complaints." Calm and calm, there seems to be a faint brilliance around him, which is dazzling, but he can't move his eyes for a moment.

Ye Gucheng just looked at her with such a calm expression, watching her put her palms together, bowed again to the old monk, said "Master's praise", and watched her turn around with the wooden bucket, filled it with Filling a bucket of clear spring, watching her walk back to her with water, raised her head and looked at herself with a smile: "City Lord, everything is over, how about we go home?"

Ye Gucheng nodded, and walked back together with her, still boarding the painting boat when they came.Ye Dange hugged the half box of pastries that he hadn't eaten in the morning, and after taking a few bites, he seemed to suddenly remember something, put down the box, and found a set of tea sets from somewhere on the boat—— Yuankong sent some homemade tea leaves from Daci Temple, Ye Dange lit the stove and boiled the spring water, and slowly poured the tea leaves into the cup...

Ye Dange poured two cups of tea, and handed one of them to Ye Gucheng. He lowered his head and took a sip while holding the other cup, and quickly hooked the corner of his mouth, then took a bite of a piece of pastry, and took another sip of tea—— This time, even the eyes have completed the crescent moon, almost invisible, and the face is full of joy and satisfaction.

He ate the pastry in his hand in two or three mouthfuls of tea, and Ye Dange licked his fingers recklessly, then took another piece from the box, and was about to eat it, but paused as if he suddenly remembered something , looking up at Ye Gucheng:

"City Lord, this pastry goes well with tea, it has a special flavor. Although the City Lord doesn't like cakes, why not try it?"

Her expression was very reluctant, but she was also very sincere and calm, probably because she was a little bit reluctant in her heart, but the taste was really good, so she hoped to let him have a taste too - she is generous and generous by nature, and she naturally hopes to be with food when she meets delicious food. Sharing with friends...Ye Gucheng glanced at the smiling girl, paused, then lowered his head suddenly, and took a bite of the pastry with her hand...

Ye Gucheng suddenly opened his eyes, looking at the darkness in front of him, he was a little lost, but he soon woke up, propped up the bed under him, sat up, frowned slightly - that dream just now... when he was on the way back The things that really happened today until the tea making, and Ye Dange did give him cakes, but he still refused to eat, but in the dream before, how could it be...

Ye Gucheng frowned even tighter, couldn't help stretching out his hands to rub the center of his brows, just about to lie down and continue to sleep, but an inexplicable sense of boredom arose in his heart, and he didn't feel sleepy anymore.Ye Gucheng pressed his forehead, hesitated for a while, but lifted the quilt and got out of bed, walked to the table, picked up the teapot and was about to pour some water to drink, but found that the teapot was also empty, so he simply put down the teapot and went to the hanger to get some water. He put on his outer robe, pushed open the door, and then was a little dazed for a moment——

A petite figure in apricot color was sitting alone under the tree in the courtyard, with his head down, thinking about something.The moonlight shone on her, and she looked inexplicably cold and lonely.

Ye Gucheng frowned, walked out.

But Ye Dange seemed to hear the sound of the door being pushed open suddenly, turned his head, and looked at Ye Gucheng with some surprise: "City Lord? It's so late, why haven't you fallen asleep yet?"

"Thirsty," Ye Gucheng glanced at her, suddenly remembered the dream just now, for some reason, he seemed a little uncomfortable, immediately looked away, and said calmly, "Drink water."

"It's cold in the twelfth lunar month, and the well water is cold. It may hurt you. I boiled some water to drink, and it's probably still warm. I'll go get it right away. Please wait for a while." Ye Dange said Standing up, without waiting for Ye Gucheng to answer, he had already put down the things in his hands, and trotted all the way to the kitchen.Ye Gucheng frowned slightly, and only then did he see the thing she put on the ground—it was probably being hugged by her in her arms before, and the night was dark, but he hadn't noticed the thing she was holding in her hand.

It was a piece of steel, with some vague outlines of a sword, but it was still quite rough. I don't know if it was because of the night, it looked very dim—although it was completely different from the appearance a few months ago, but the leaf Gucheng can still be recognized at a glance, this should undoubtedly be the piece of cold iron he brought.

"City Lord." Ye Dange came back at some point, holding a celadon teacup in his hand and handing it over. There was white mist steaming upwards from the cup, making her face look a little uncomfortable. true.

Ye Gucheng nodded slightly, reached out to take the teacup, and took a sip with his head bowed—the temperature of the tea was quite high, and he took a sip into his throat, which made people feel warm in this cold night, and the whole person was ironed.Ye Gucheng's brows unknowingly relaxed a little, and then he saw Ye Dange bent down and picked up the embryonic sword blank, held it in his arms again, and sat down on the spot again.

Ye Gucheng paused, but finally opened his mouth: "Aren't you going to sleep?"

"Don't sleep tonight," Ye Dange looked up at him and smiled, "The water has been brought back, it's quiet at night, just to quench the fire."

While speaking, a gust of wind blew by, and there was a rustling sound as it blew through the branches. Ye Dange seemed to be a little afraid of the cold, so he gathered up his clothes and hugged the sword blank in his arms even tighter.Ye Gucheng took two steps forward and stood in front of her, blocking the blowing wind intentionally or unintentionally.Ye Dange seemed to feel something, tilted his head and smiled, looking at him with a little gratitude.

Ye Gucheng looked away, looked at the sword blank in her arms, and said lightly: "Don't turn on the furnace?"

"Let's go," Ye Dange straightened his hair casually, looking up at the moon, "The step of hardening depends entirely on the swordsmith's grasp of the heat and timing. If there is a slight mistake, all previous efforts will be wasted. Mostly it can only be carried out in the dead of night. I... am waiting for my heart to calm down."

Ye Gucheng's eyes flickered slightly, as if he was a little surprised: "Are you restless?"

Ye Dange scratched his head, his face was slightly embarrassed, but he still honestly said: "For the first time casting a cold iron sword, I was a little excited, but also... a little nervous."

As Ye Dange said in the daytime, she is obsessed with swords and has always been confident in making swords. This is the first time I saw her nervous... Ye Gucheng felt a little funny for no reason, and a smile flashed across his eyes : "It doesn't have to be."

Ye Dange was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding what he meant for a while, and blinked his eyes in doubt, and then heard Ye Gucheng continue with a rare patience and good temper:

"Don't be nervous. When it comes to sword casting, you are already a master, and you will never fail."

Ye Dange was stunned——Ye Gucheng under the moonlight seemed to be getting colder and colder, but he seemed to have an inexplicable...gentleness, his tone was as calm as ever, but for some reason, it made her feel as if he was full of emotion. With bits and pieces of warmth: "City Lord, you..."

"Don't be nervous," Ye Gucheng took a deep look at her, finally looked away, turned and walked towards the room, "I believe you."

The author has something to say: Dan Ge's answer is not as handsome as fried chicken, mighty and domineering!

The city lord thinks every day and dreams at night. In fact, I originally wanted him to have a [beep——] dream, but I was afraid that the city lord would come to stand by the bed in the middle of the night, so I should be more reserved. The future will last forever. 2333333333
