Sword God is hard to catch

A lamp was lit on the table, and the moonlight outside the window was like water.The room is filled with the aroma of chrysanthemum and osmanthus.

Ximen Chuuxue was sitting in front of the window, his sword was in his hand, and he was staring at it with strange eyes.It seems as cold as the frost in winter, and as warm as the sun in spring.

He was clearly staring at his sword, but he seemed to see another knife in his eyes. That knife naughtily poked its head out with its non-killing reverse edge and tried to sharpen and cut at his sword. If there is an intention to fight back, the knife that "cherishes life" will immediately "grow" out of the wheel and turn around and run away.

Is it his sword wanting to see the knife, or is his heart stretching?

Ximen Chuixue smiled.

He knew that he was thinking of someone, and he also knew that she had come to the capital.Since she came to the capital, he often began to miss her.He knew it wasn't right.The most important and dangerous life-and-death battle in his life is before his eyes. At this moment, a sword that kills should not miss a knife that does not kill.

However, if a person can even control his thoughts, he is no longer a person.

Ximen Chuuxue stood up and walked to the window. The moonlight shone on him, and there was warmth in the cold.

Suddenly, he keenly noticed that the atmosphere in the room had changed, and there seemed to be a little fresh plum fragrance floating in the aroma of chrysanthemum and sweet-scented osmanthus.His eyes lit up, but he didn't look back, and then he heard a voice enter his ears.

"Would you be offended if I did something wrong to you?"

In the silent night, a calm but clear and pleasant voice sounded.It was also a voice that Ximen Chuuxue was familiar with but had not heard for a long time, and this voice was precisely the voice he was missing.

There was a hint of spring-like warmth in his eyes, and even his voice softened, and he said: "I won't be angry for most of the things you do, but if you secretly knock me out, I won't be able to keep my appointment." , but I would be angry."

The voice was silent for a while, and said unwillingly: "Will you be angry with me forever?"

Ximen Chuuxue shook his head and said, "No. But I will regret it for the rest of my life."

The voice fell silent again, but Ximen Chuuxue seemed to hear the slight aggravation of his breathing.

He turned around slowly, with his back to the window, the shadow of the moonlight covered his face, but it couldn't hide the softness and joy in his voice.

Qin Ni stood opposite him, two steps away.

She is still dressed in a white robe and a white veiled hat, but the veil has been lifted, revealing a beautiful face, a golden bell hangs quietly on her wrist, cute and delicate, and she is wearing a The knife, the knife that missed his sword.

Her eyes are very bright, even the dusty color of her body can't hide the obsidian-like luster on her beautiful face.She was still expressionless, but Ximen Chuuxue saw worry in those bright black eyes, as well as his... longing...

"My injury has healed." Ximen Chuuxue said softly.

Tan Ni blinked her eyes, and Ximen Chuuxue found that her worries seemed to have let go a little, but she still said: "If you knock you out, you will be angry, and even regret it for the rest of your life, but if you don't knock you out, I will be angry, and even regret it for the rest of your life. You Say, what should I do?"

Ximen Chuuxue said: "This is indeed a difficult choice, but I know that you will not knock me out anymore."

Tan Ni pursed his lower lip unwillingly, and turned his head away from looking at him.

She understands him and understands the meaning of swordsmanship to him, and she will never have the heart to let him regret it for the rest of his life.

Ximen Chuuxue came over and gently took Tan Ni into his arms.

Tan Ni didn't resist, and obediently fell in his arms, but still turned his head and refused to look at him, and whispered: "I'm angry."

Ximen Chuuxue said above her head: "I know."

Tan Ni said again: "We are still in a cold war."

Ximen Chuuxue said, "Cold War?"

Qin Ni said, "I just ignore you."

Ximen Chuuxue seemed to smile, and said, "I know too."

Tan Ni said, "Then why don't you stay away from me?"

Ximen Chuuxue said: "Then why do you still come to the capital?"

Tan Ni said: "I'm here to investigate the case. It has nothing to do with you."

Ximen Chuuxue said: "Then why did you come here?"

Tan Ni said, "I'm here to save people. It has nothing to do with you."

Ximen Chuuxue took a look, and there was a person, a woman, lying on the bed.But he didn't ask, he just tightened his arms, holding the girl in his arms who repeatedly emphasized "it has nothing to do with you", for a long time, he seemed to sigh a little: "You shouldn't come."

Qin Ni fell silent.

The silver moon moved westward, and the time passed by every minute and every second. It would not stop for Tan Ni's worry, nor would it stop for Ximen Chuuxue's sigh.The autumn night was bleak, and the moonlight poured in from the window, covering the two of them like a layer of white silver gauze.

Tan Ni said softly: "If there is a chance, I will still stop you."

Ximen Chuixue did not speak.

Tan Ni said again: "Even if you want to compete with swords, it shouldn't be under the turbulent conspiracy. It's very unsafe and there are too many variables. You should know that Master Guisun and Aunt Gongsun are dead. And Zhang Yingfeng from Emei Sanying, they said you killed him."

Ximen Chuixue said, "I didn't kill him."

Tan Ni said: "I know. You may kill someone, but you won't pretend to have a white horse carrying his body around the streets. What's more, the white horse is owned by the royal family of the Forbidden City."

Ximen Chuixue said, "The Forbidden City?"

Tan Ni nodded, suddenly thought of something, raised his head from his embrace, and asked with wide eyes, "Where is your decisive battle?"

Ximen Chuixue said, "The Forbidden City."

Qin Ni's pupils shrank suddenly.

The woman on the bed is none other than Ouyang Qing.

Lu Xiaofeng went to look for Ye Gucheng, he ran very fast, jumped out of the window of Li Yanbei's mansion, and ran away without a trace, as if something was chasing after him, Tan Ni knew that he was afraid of following him.Because he said that Ye Gucheng is also his friend.

He must be afraid that she would bombard Ye Gucheng with twenty catties of explosives, Qin Ni thought.

Staring blankly at Lu Xiaofeng's back, he shrunk into a small dot and disappeared into the night.Tan Ni didn't chase after him, but walked back to the house, carried Ouyang Qing on his back, and before Li Yanbei and Thirteenth Aunt could react, he jumped out of the window and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Saving people is like putting out a fire, so when Lu Xiaofeng finds Ye Gucheng and comes back to find his confidante in butter-soaked snails disappeared without a trace, you can't blame her, can you?

Tan Ni doesn't know where Ximen Chuixue is, but it doesn't mean she can't find it.

"Lu Xiaofeng's confidante?" Ever since Tan Ni repeatedly reminded him that "it is not allowed to elope with Lu Xiaofeng's confidante", Ximen Chuuxue has been very sensitive to this identity.

But obviously, he wasn't the only one who was sensitive.

Tan Ni immediately turned his head and reminded him, "A friend's wife is not allowed. Neither is a friend's confidante."

Regarding this topic, Ximen Chuuxue has learned to deal with it silently, and no longer wastes his brain cells thinking about why he elopes with a woman whom he has met for the first time or who has never met before, just because this woman is "Lu Xiaofeng's confidante" .

Ximen Chuuxue's medical skills were really good. Although Ouyang Qing's poison was very severe, she was quickly cured.

Seeing Ouyang Qing's face gradually recovering from anger, Tan Ni blinked and said, "Lu Xiaofeng must be looking for her everywhere now."

Ximen Chuuxue turned to look at her, "Didn't you tell him to come to my place?"

Tan Ni said expressionlessly: "He didn't tell me where Ye Gucheng was either."

A strange expression suddenly appeared on Ximen Chuuxue's face. He stared at Tan Ni, with a strange tone, "Are you looking for Ye Gucheng?"

Qin Ni nodded, "I want to see if Ye Gucheng will be immobilized by the bombing with 400 people, strong bows, locust rocks and [-] catties of explosives." Then, she raised her head. , staring at Ximen Chuixue calmly and said, "If he can't move, will you still compete with him?"

Ximen Chuuxue didn't speak, but just stared at her without blinking. After a while, he suddenly smiled and said, "Of course not."

Tan Ni nodded expressionlessly, "Since I can't persuade you, I have to 'persuade' him. The decisive battle was provoked by him, and a series of murders and conspiracies were also caused by him. He owes. Well, there’s also my rent owed.”

Ximen Chuixue said: "Arrears for rent?" Are you in debt again?

Qin Ni said: "I didn't know that the prices in the capital were so high, and it cost me two months' salary for one night. He should pay for this money."

Ximen Chuuxue looked at her steadfastly, and suddenly said, "You don't know the rumors?"

Qin Ni was puzzled, and said, "A rumor?"

Ximen Chuixue said: "So, you don't know that you put a hat on me on the first day you came to the capital?"

Qin Ni said, "What hat?"

Ximen Chuixue said: "A bright green hat."

The sound of autumn is silent, and the autumn wind is bleak.

The room is damp and dark, and the place is not very narrow, but there is only one bed, one table, and one stool, so the walls are even more desolate, empty and lonely, and the lonely lamp is even more dim.The dust on the walls has not been removed, there are cobwebs on the roof, and the broken scriptures next to the solitary lamp have not been read for a long time.

When Ximen Chuuxue and Tan Ni were "heart-to-heart" under the moon, Ye Gucheng was reclining on the cold and hard wooden bed. Although he had already felt very tired, he tossed and turned, unable to sleep.

He thought of many things again, the daily morning and evening, the uninterrupted hard training, the blood that his opponent shed under his sword, the blue sea and the blue sky, the golden sunshine, and the beauty of white jade the floating clouds...

He wanted to die, but he didn't want to die.Why are there always so many helpless contradictions in a person's life?

There was the sound of wind blowing outside the window—it was by no means a natural wind sound.

The sword is on the table.With a backhand, he had already grasped the hilt of the sword, his reaction was still fast, and his movements were still sensitive.

"There's no need to draw your sword." Someone outside the window smiled and said, "If you have wine, you might as well have a glass."

Lu Xiaofeng didn't look for Ouyang Qing everywhere as Tan Ni hoped, he didn't even know that Ouyang Qing was "missing", he didn't find Ye Gucheng until now.

There was no wine in the temple, but Lu Xiaofeng still sat down because there were friends here.

Even though they only met each other hastily twice, Lu Xiaofeng still considers them to be friends.Although Tan Ni doubted Ye Gucheng, Lu Xiaofeng was unwilling to doubt his friend.

He stared at Ye Gucheng, and they talked about Ye Gucheng's injury, the dark tide in the capital, and Ximen Chuuxue.

"Unexpectedly, you are also Ximen Chuuxue's bosom friend." Lu Xiaofeng said.

Ye Gucheng stared at the sword on the table, and said slowly: "What I know is not his people, but his sword."

But Lu Xiaofeng was staring at him: "Maybe you are exactly the same person."

Although Ye Gucheng didn't admit it, he didn't deny it either.How could two solitary and peerless swords and two solitary and peerless people not cherish each other?

Lu Xiaofeng suddenly thought, if Tan Ni sees Ye Gucheng like this, maybe he won't doubt him anymore.

Looking at Ye Gucheng and thinking of Tan Ni, Lu Xiaofeng suddenly smiled and said, "Have you heard the recent rumors?"

Ye Gucheng was silent, his face seemed a little sad, but his figure was even more lonely, he said: "Ximen Chuuxue really has a woman?"

Lu Xiaofeng nodded, but his smile was suppressed.

Ye Gucheng stood up, opened the window, looked at the bright moon outside the window, and murmured: "Now it's September [-]th."

Lu Xiaofeng looked at him, and he suddenly realized that Ye Gucheng seemed to be carrying a huge burden, making him feel as if he was alone.
