Sword God is hard to catch

The inn is small, but very clean.There are four or five tables in the front hall to entertain passing diners.The guest room is in the backyard, and the furniture is very simple, except for the bed, there is only an agarwood table and four chairs.

There is an old locust tree planted in the yard. When the wind blows, the leaves of the old locust tree will rustle and fall.

Ximen Chuuxue and Tan Ni live here.Tan Ni took Sun Xiuqing and ran along the mountain for a long time, and when he landed, Sun Xiuqing's face was no longer ashen.

Ximen Chuuxue is not only good at swordsmanship, but also good at medicine.

Sun Xiuqing was out of danger, but she hadn't woken up yet.

The door was open, and Tan Ni stood under the old locust tree and stared at it, as if its dark brown old skin had attracted her infinitely.

Ximen Chuuxue walked to her side and said, "Do you have something on your mind?"

Another person would be surprised that Ximen Chuuxue asked such a question, but Tan Ni didn't, as if it was a matter of course, she nodded, "Yeah."

Ximen Chuuxue didn't ask any further, he knew that if she wanted to say it, she would say it without asking, and if she didn't want to, it would be useless to ask.He raised his head and looked at the dark green leaves on the old locust tree, which were slowly turning yellow. They still had a vitality that did not match the old body, and they would germinate and wither.I just don't know how many years it has spent alone.

Tan Ni was not someone who would fall into hard thinking, she had let go of her mood, and turned to look at Ximen Chuuxue.She suddenly realized that there was something in Ximen Chuuxue, which was loneliness.He is not very old, but he already has the loneliness of looking up from a high mountain.He not only enjoys this loneliness, but also keeps looking for something that can make him get rid of it.

He needs an opponent, but it's not just that, maybe what he needs is someone who can go deep into his heart.

Tan Ni suddenly thought, could it be because of this that he took aim at Lu Xiaofeng's confidante?After all, Lu Xiaofeng's confidante is usually not an ordinary woman, such as Shangguan Danfeng who hangs a chastity archway and works in the "birth watch" industry.

However, she was definitely not the one who eloped with Ximen Chuuxue.

"How many confidante Lu Xiaofeng has?" Tan Ni asked suddenly.

Seemingly unexpected that Tan Ni would ask such a question, Ximen Chuuxue was taken aback, and said, "I don't know."

Tan Ni was surprised and said, "You don't know?"

Ximen Chuixue said, "Why should I know?"

Because you'll elope with one of them!

However, Tan Ni would not say it out of course, she was silent for a while, and said, "Have you never seen them?"

Ximen Chuixue said: "I don't see everything."

Tan Ni said, "You'd better never see them again."

Of course Ximen Chuuxue would not meet Lu Xiaofeng's confidante, in fact, he had never even thought about it, but he didn't understand why Tan Ni brought this up on purpose.

"Why can't I see them?" he asked.

Because you'll elope with one of them!Qin Ni smashed this sentence into his heart for the second time.

She blinked, looked at Ximen Chuuxue fixedly, and said: "A friend's wife is not allowed." Then, she added, "It's best not to have a friend's confidante. It's not good to elope."

Ximen Chuuxue almost thought he heard it wrong, after a while, he turned his head and began to silently think about why he wanted to elope with Lu Xiaofeng's confidante.

But now, among the women he has met since he met Tan Ni, the only woman who can be called Lu Xiaofeng's confidante is the woman who is still unknown whether it is Shangguan Feiyan or Shangguan Danfeng.

He remembered that he only said one or two words to that woman——"From now on, if you use the sword again, I will kill you!"

How did Tan Ni figure out from this sentence that he was going to elope with that woman?Ximen Chuuxue was very puzzled.

But Ximen Chuuxue was obviously not the kind of person who allowed himself to be in a predicament without resisting, he said slowly: "I have never met Lu Xiaofeng's confidante, but I am chatting with Huamanlou's confidante."

Tan Ni looked at him and said, "I'm not a confidante who is full of flowers. We are friends." After a pause, she continued, "We are still debtors and creditors."

Ximen Chuuxue said, "Debt?"

Qin Ni said: "The housing loan. I owe Huamanlou 112 taels of silver, and now I have repaid 11 taels, and there is still a shortfall of 101 taels."

Although he doesn't understand what a "mortgage loan" is, the owner of Wanmei Villa's huge property has already heard of a "huge" debt "up to" 112 taels of silver - the price of one of his coats!

"Why only 11 taels?" Ximen Chuuxue asked.

Qin Ni said: "I pay back one or two a month, and now in the past eleven months, Huamanlou has waived my interest."

Owner Ximen already has an intuitive understanding of Tan Ni's personal property. At least, it will take her ten years before she can afford a coat from him.

Ximen Chuuxue suddenly understood why Tan Ni wanted to steal his villa.

As the autumn wind swept by, the old locust tree shook its head dully, the sound of leaves trembling came, and a few withered and yellow leaves slowly drifted down.

Ximen Chuuxue suddenly asked: "Why is your blade facing backwards?"

Tan Ni said, "I heard that you only kill four people a year, and you will definitely fast and bathe before killing?"

Ximen Chuuxue didn't answer either, but turned to look at her. His gaze was clear and cold, but there was a faint warmth in the depths of his eyes. Whether it's a fast catcher or a killer, whether it's killing or saving people, they Some things are the same.

Ximen Chuuxue said, "I want to try your knife."

Tan Ni nodded and said, "Yes, but you can't kill me."

Ximen Chuuxue suddenly smiled, she was the only person he had ever met who said "fear of death" so calmly.

"Yes," he said.

From stillness to movement, in an instant, two white shadows intermingle together, the shadow of sword light and sword diffuses under the old locust tree, just like the moment Ximen Chuuxue draws his sword, he has become one with the sword, and Tan Ni also changes suddenly when he holds the sword , as if she had become a knife.

Ximen Chuuxue's sword is very fast, and the murderous aura seems to be contained in his sword, the murderous aura is the sword aura, and the sword aura is the murderous aura.

Tan Ni's saber is also very fast. Her saber has murderous aura, but it also has no murderous aura.The knife itself has murderous intent, but Tan Ni's person does not have murderous intent. A person without murderous intent should not be able to control a murderous sword, but Tan Ni's sword seems to belong to her, one person, one sword , unexpectedly harmonious.

How can a swordsman without killing intent master the peerless swordsmanship?

Ximen Chuuxue suddenly had an answer in his heart.

Ximen Chuixue is sincere in the sword, his sword is a pure sword, in his heart, the sword is the highest pursuit.Tan Ni is sincere to herself. Her knife may not be a pure knife, and the way of the knife may not be her pursuit, but she has another calm path. Her knife is her most loyal partner, defending See what she wants to defend.

This is a contest that doesn't matter whether you win or lose.

One knife and one sword frequently meet, Ximen Chuuxue is immersed in finding the loopholes in Qin Ni's sword technique, but Tan Ni is also immersed in every time to make up for the loopholes discovered by Ximen Chuuxue. They no longer care about the final victory or defeat, but are more happy in this In the competition between you and me.

Ximen Chuuxue's eyes became brighter and brighter, and Tan Ni's eyes also radiated a bright brilliance. Knife and sword, attack and defense, every move and every style, it seemed that they had been sparring for ten years, and they had a good understanding.

They are already standing at the pinnacle of swords and knives. The tricks of knives and swords can no longer restrain them. The sword moves with the heart, and the knife moves with the heart. They can already do what the heart points and the sword moves.

Knives and swords already contain their language and even their emotions.

When Sun Xiuqing woke up, she saw this scene through the open door.

Under the old locust tree, a man and a woman, two white shadows, sometimes meet and sometimes separate, the sound of "ding ding" of swords colliding came, pleasant and crisp.They only have each other in their eyes, and perhaps their world only has each other.

Sun Xiuqing suddenly remembered that she had once drawn Ximen Chuuxue's sword, but he didn't even touch the hilt, and dealt with her with a wave of his hand.

It is not a shame that women are weaker than men.However, Sun Xiuqing was very sad at this moment, the distance between them was so far away, she would never be able to understand him, because of the natural gap, they were not in the same world.

The old locust tree shook its head with the wind, and the fallen leaves on the ground were blown by the autumn wind.A withered yellow leaf slowly fell on Tan Ni's black hair.

Tan Ni looked at Ximen Chuuxue without moving, her eyes were as bright as Dongfang Qiming, and the Ni-blade knife was hanging obliquely, shining with silver light, "It turns out that the competition is so interesting." She said.

Ximen Chuuxue was also looking at her, his eyes were facing each other, he slightly raised the corner of his mouth, and said, "It's really interesting."

Dressed in white like snow, with the long sword behind her back, Ximen Chuuxue was still standing beside the old locust tree, but her loneliness was much less, and her dark eyes stared at the girl opposite, as if there was something more.

Tan Ni put the knife back into its sheath, raised her hand to put her messy long hair away, but took a dead leaf from her head, and took the withered yellow leaf in her hand. She turned her head to look at the old locust tree, and suddenly said: "It's already gone!" It's almost autumn."

Ximen Chuixue said: "In winter, the plum blossoms in Wanmei Villa will bloom."

Tan turned his head to look at him, and said, "Can I drink plum blossom tea?"

Ximen Chuixue said: "The plum blossom tea brewed with the first snowfall in early winter on the plum blossoms is both delicious and fragrant."

Qin Ni asked, "Is there a heater?"

Ximen Chuixue said: "Yes."

Tan Ni looked at him and said, "I still want to read story books."

Ximen Chuuxue also looked at her, and said, "Okay."

The old locust tree was as lonely as ever, but under the tree there was no swordsman who felt like him, and he also took away the young girl who seemed to understand what emotion was.

Not far away, there was another conversation suddenly.

"Do you have to pay rent?" asked someone who was in "heavy debt".

"...No need." The Master Ximen replied after being silent for a moment.

"Catcher Wang won't fire me, right? A policeman shouldn't be a guest at a killer's house. Your arrest warrant is still in the Yamen." The voice of a certain girl's policeman is more rare and somewhat worried, but the point seems to be On "Get Fired".

"Wanted order?" Ximen Sword God was puzzled.

"It's just that after you killed someone last time, I handed over your case to Chief Wang and applied for arrest. I don't know why, but they haven't come to arrest you yet." A policeman regretfully expressed his dissatisfaction with the work efficiency of his colleagues. .

Ximen Chuixue: "..."

The author has something to say:
