Looking to the Thirteen Rivers
Chapter 229 Extra Story ①
In the middle of winter, Yunhua Mountain ushered in the first snow of the year.
The snow was not heavy, it was fragmented, and it didn't seem to be there until night, it fell like catkins in groups, and soon covered the mountains with a layer of spotless white, which was really beautiful.
Yin Qiusong, with his clothes loosely wrapped and his hair still wet, trotted out from behind the screen like a gust of wind.Under the light of the candle, her face was flushed, her eyes were watery, her flustered expression was somewhat shy, and she wrapped herself in a quilt as soon as she got on the bed.
Man Jiangxue followed behind and showed her face. The large casual clothes were as white as frost outside the window, filled with fragrance, and the halo made her face hazy and soft, more beautiful than the shiny pearl buttons on the skirt. conspicuous.
"What are you running for?"
Yin Qiu huddled in the corner of the bed, only showing her flickering eyes, she glanced at Man Jiangxue, and said in a muffled voice: "... whoever made the master keep touching me, I told you not to do that gone."
"What about me?" Man Jiangxue took a dry towel and said in a flat tone, "Didn't you invite me to take a bath with you? The bucket is just that big, two people squeezed in it will inevitably touch each other, and I didn't mean it."
Yin Qiu frowned, and said, "Isn't it intentional? I was very ticklish, and you kept touching it..."
"Just feel around," Man Jiangxue went to the couch and sat down, looked at Yin Qiu and said, "It's clear that you asked me to rub your back, why do you make me sound like a disciple."
"Are you just rubbing my back?" Yin Qiu blushed and retorted in a low voice, "You obviously didn't just rub my back, you also touched other places."
Man Jiangxue said, "Where did I touch?"
Yin Qiu stretched out his hand, snapped his fingers and said, "Touch me... anyway, it's just touching."
"So what's the matter? It's just to help you take a bath," Man Jiangxue looked calm, "Besides, I'm here. If you feel that you have suffered a disadvantage, just touch it back."
Yin Qiu looked at her, and his gaze stayed on Man Jiangxue's slightly open neckline for a while, then he cleared his throat and said, "That, that's not necessary..."
"Come out," Man Jiangxue patted her side, "Hair is not dry, be careful of catching a cold."
Yin Qiu blinked his eyes twice, took off the quilt slowly, Man Jiangxue stretched out his long hand, and pulled her into his arms, then rubbed Yin Qiu with a handkerchief, and said: "I'll always be there I can't get rid of this problem, I have to dry my hair before going to bed after bathing, how many times have I told you, why can't I remember?"
Yin Qiudong didn't dare to move, lay on Man Jiangxue's chest and thought for a moment, then replied: "Yesterday Uncle Wen said that I have been a little rebellious recently, maybe I have reached the age of rebellion? I still want to listen to what my uncle said, but I just can't help but turn against you, and I don't know what's going on."
"You never rebelled when you were young, why did you become rebellious when you grew up?" Man Jiangxue looked at Yin Qiu and asked, "Recently, you have been absent-minded in everything you do, and you always like to wander off. What's on your mind?"
Yin Qiu said blankly: "No..." She adjusted her sitting posture and looked at Man Jiangxue, "Maybe everything is over and there is no turbulence or accident. In fact, this is a good thing, but I I always feel empty inside.”
Man Jiangxue wiped her hair patiently and meticulously. Hearing this, she pondered for a while, and then asked, "But is there any unfinished wish? Or is there anyone else that you can't let go of?"
Yin Qiu thought for a while, then shook his head: "No more, my wish is over, and everyone is living a very good life, and no one can't let me go. Maybe it's just that I'm not used to the calm life now. I haven't lived it since I was a child. I have a peaceful life for a few days, and now everything is settled and all parties are peaceful, but I feel a little uncomfortable after being idle for more than half a year, and I don't know what to do next."
Man Jiangxue said: "You are already the chief disciple, and you have more burdens and responsibilities than before. In the past, you only needed to concentrate on studying literature and martial arts at Jingyue Peak, and you didn't need to worry about other things. Now, the errands in the palace are also very important. A part of it is on you, and it stands to reason that you should be busier than before, but why don't you know what you should do?"
Yin Qiu said: "I have done well what a chief disciple should do. At the same time, I am also working hard to improve my swordsmanship. I only have one goal in the short term, and that is to beat Senior Sister Ji one day," she said, smiling. , "When I can beat Senior Sister Ji, I will beat Senior Uncle again. By that time, I will be the most powerful person in the palace!"
Man Jiangxue chuckled: "It's not that I want to throw cold water on you, but if you want to beat me, it will probably be very difficult."
"You have self-confidence, and I have self-confidence," Yin Qiu said, "What if I can beat you in the future?"
Man Jiangxue said: "Why do you have to beat me? Have you ever met someone who wants to beat his sweetheart all day long?"
Yin Qiu choked on the second half of her sentence, and said non-stop: "That's true, isn't Senior Sister Ji?"
Man Jiangxue paused as she rubbed her hair, and said with a bit of irony: "That's true. But she studied hard at the beginning to catch Wen Chaoyu back, and she retreated later to snatch Wen Chaoyu back from Nangong Min. Then you are for what?"
"No reason, I just want to do this," Yin Qiu said confidently, "I'm going to beat my uncle."
The corners of Man Jiangxue's lips were slightly bent, she pinched Yin Qiu's cheek, and said teasingly: "It seems that Wen Zhaoyu is right, you are indeed at the time of rebellion, and the rebellion is a bit late," after saying that Said, "But it's a good thing to have a goal. I'm waiting for the day when you defeat me."
Yin Qiu laughed: "Actually, I just said this casually. Uncle Shi is so much older than me. It is really difficult for me to surpass you, unless I can meet Uncle Shi when I was a child and find him when you haven't learned kung fu well." If you are singled out, then I will definitely win."
Man Jiangxue smiled without saying a word.
"What did Master look like when he was young?" Yin Qiu tilted his head, staring straight at Man Jiangxue.
"I don't know about that either," Man Jiangxue said, "Who do I ask if you ask me?"
"Have you always looked in the mirror?" Yin Qiu was curious, "Is there a big difference from now?"
Man Jiangxue thought back for a while, and said: "If you only talk about the appearance, the change is not too big. Of course, this is just my own opinion. In short, if you see it, you should be able to recognize me at a glance."
Yin Qiu said: "But I just can't see it. Where can I go to see my uncle when I was a child?"
Man Jiangxue hung up the veil and smiled: "That can only be seen in a dream."
After turning off the lights, the light in the bedroom suddenly dimmed, only the lanterns in the corridor cast a dim light, and the visibility was not high.The two took off their coats and groped into the quilt. Yin Qiu leaned on Man Jiangxue's arm, hugged her and kissed her for a while, then said innocently: "Then let's meet in a dream, uncle hug me tightly." A little, so that I can find you soon in my dream."
Man Jiangxue held her in his arms, and they were almost close to Yin Qiuyan, and said, "Then let's compare and see who can find the other first."
Yin Qiu was drowsy, nodded his head and said, "Okay, I must find Master Uncle first..."
Man Jiangxue sniffed the fragrance of her hair, and said, "What if it's me first?"
"No chance," Yin Qiu squeezed into her arms, "When I was young, my uncle found me first, so in my dream, I should be the one who found my uncle first, just let me go. "
Man Jiangxue laughed when she heard it, but she also responded softly: "Okay, okay, let you go."
·
At dawn the next day, when Yin Qiu woke up again, Man Jiangxue was no longer in the room.
Surrounded by crisp birdsong and noisy cicadas outside, the sky is extremely bright, the bed is covered with curtains, and the room is filled with a unique fragrance of incense. Yin Qiu rubbed his eyes and sat up. When he smelled the smell of incense, he first thought of When did Man Jiangxue change the kind of incense, and when he heard the cicadas outside the house, he wondered where the cicadas came from in winter?
She stretched out her hand to push aside the curtain, and wanted to put on her shoes and sleep on the bed, but what she saw made Yin Qiu startled, and the remaining sleepiness in her mind immediately disappeared.
The room is not big, and the furnishings are very simple. Although it is very clean and tidy, there is not much decoration. It looks like a guest room somewhere, but it doesn't look like an inn.
There are no red maples outside the window, no maple grove, this is neither Jingyue Peak nor Shen Xingdian.
What is even more bizarre is that there is no snow in the yard, and there is no thin ice in the rockery pool. The cicadas are singing and the sun is shining brightly. This is clearly a summer day, not a winter with heavy snow.
As soon as he woke up, it was inexplicably changed from winter to summer, and came to a completely unfamiliar place. Yin Qiu was dumbfounded, and quickly jumped off the bed and opened the door to go out. Unexpectedly, the surrounding area was deserted, and there was no one. The pure white gardenias and jasmines in the courtyard are in full bloom, and the fragrance of flowers is overflowing. It is a quiet and elegant place to live.
where is thisWhy is she here all of a sudden?
"Master uncle!" Yin Qiu shouted, but there was no answer for a long time, so he had to leave the courtyard and walk outside.
Out of the gate, there are many Qionglouyuyu outside, which is very majestic, with verandahs running across, the layout is patchwork, the red walls cover the sight, the glazed tiles reflect the bright sky, this place is full of dignity, it is like a magnificent palace The palace here is even more resplendent than Yunhua Palace.
Yin Qiu was bewildered, looked around in a daze, and stood at the door at a loss.
Could it be that he was dreaming?
Yin Qiu immediately rolled up his sleeve and bit down on his wrist.
It hurts!
If you feel pain, does it mean that you are not dreaming?
But how could she sleep in a place she had never been before?Where did Man Jiangxue go?
Yin Qiu called Man Jiangxue again, but still did not get any response. The place was empty, and no one passed by after standing here for a long time, so Yin Qiu had to walk around like a headless fly, trying to find someone to ask the way. But she walked for a long time, but she didn't meet anyone, and this place is like some kind of maze, she can't find her head when she turns around, and it's impossible to go out and take a look on the street.
The sun was shining brightly, and Yin Qiu was tired and hot after walking for half a day. Just as he was about to choose a shady place to sit down and rest his feet, he suddenly heard a familiar sound coming from somewhere, vaguely someone was practicing sword, Yin Qiu couldn't tell the direction, so he just flew down to the eaves, stood tall, and then saw a familiar figure practicing alone on the martial arts field on the east side, dressed in crisp white clothes, which was very eye-catching.
Yin Qiu was overjoyed, and hurriedly moved over, but when she got closer and looked again, she found that the figure was not as tall as she had imagined, and was even half a head shorter than Yin Qiu. A little girl about eight or nine years old.
Yin Qiu was so astonished that he pinched himself subconsciously.
It still hurts!
So is it a dream? !
Yin Qiu couldn't help but fell into deep self-doubt, squatting silently on the roof of the roof and looking down carefully, the little girl had calm eyebrows, outstanding appearance, and a rare clearness at a young age. Expensive and calm, extraordinary bearing.
That face... No matter how you look at it, it's my uncle!
Could it be that she really had such a dream after making an appointment with her uncle to meet in a dream before going to bed last night?
But this dream is too real!
Yin Qiu scratched his head and scratched his head, thinking about it for a while, but didn't understand what was going on, and finally he comforted himself that it was just a dream, and when he was about to observe Man Jiangxue secretly for a while, he saw Man Jiangxue who didn't know when. He stopped, and stood in the middle of the field looking up at her.
Across the distance, the two people looked at each other silently, those eyes were almost the same as after many years, there was some undisguised alienation in the indifference, polite and polite, just more of the purity of children, Not as mature as Man Jiangxue later.
Facing the gaze she cast on him, Yin Qiu was stunned for no reason, and asked tentatively, "Can you see me?"
The young Man Jiangxue nodded slightly, and said in a flat tone: "I can see it."
Seeing her answering his own words, Yin Qiu was very surprised, thinking that he had never had such a real and clear dream before, and couldn't help but smile with curled lips.
"Why are you sitting so high?" Man Jiangxue's voice was immature, but her posture was very upright, her expression was calm and calm as soon as she held the sword, as if she didn't feel abrupt because of Yin Qiu's sudden appearance.
After confirming that he was in a dream, Yin Qiu felt relieved, and replied with a smile: "You can bask in the sun when you are in a high place. Do you want to come?"
In the light of the sky, Yin Qiu sat leisurely on the eaves, with her legs dangling in the air and her skirt fluttering. The sunlight reflected her smile very brightly, more beautiful than the flowers in the yard.
Man Jiangxue looked at her for a while, and said, "I haven't learned Qinggong yet, so I can't make it."
Yin Qiu slightly raised his eyebrows, and asked enthusiastically, "How old are you?"
Man Jiangxue said, "Nine years old."
Nine years old... Isn't that the year when my uncle was summoned to the palace to participate in the sacrificial ceremony?It stands to reason that a nine-year-old uncle could fly up into the air to support the Xiling Banner in a violent storm. It is impossible that she has not learned lightness kung fu. It seems that she does not know Yin Qiu's identity, so she lied to her.
Yin Qiu saw the truth and said happily, "Is that so, do you want to come up? If so, I can bring you up."
Man Jiangxue asked without answering, "Who are you?"
Yin Qiu reacted quickly, and already guessed that this place should be the imperial courtyard where Man Jiangxue lived when she was a child. She smiled and said, "My surname is Yin, and my single name is Qiu." After a pause, she continued, " I'm a quack who your mother invited to teach you kung fu."
When Man Jiangxue heard this, she didn't respond immediately, as if she was weighing the credibility of Yin Qiu's words.
Although the girl in front of her is young, her temperament is as calm as smoke, and she has a kind smile in her conversation. She is more like a boudoir lady than a person from the world.Man Jiangxue looked at Yin Qiu and said, "I haven't seen you before."
"I just came here today," Yin Qiu said, falling lightly from the eaves to the ground, "You must have heard of Yunhua Palace? I am a disciple of Yunhua."
Man Jiangxue stared at her with unmistakable scrutiny and scrutiny in her eyes.
Seeing her being so vigilant and refusing to trust herself easily, Yin Qiu secretly lamented that her uncle had been thoughtful since she was a child. If she was nine years old, she would believe whatever others said, and there would be no uncle Such a calm performance.
So Yin Qiu added another sentence: "The clothes I wear are the disciple clothes of Yunhua Palace, and your mother is from the Central Plains, so you should be able to tell that I am too."
Man Jiangxue said: "I have met disciple Yunhua." She looked Yin Qiu back and forth, "Although your clothes are similar to theirs, they are not the same."
"Because this is the disciple uniform that only chief disciples can wear," Yin Qiu said, "Have you seen the chief disciple of Yunhua Palace?"
Man Jiangxue shook his head: "Never."
"Then you have seen it now." Yin Qiu didn't know why he wanted to laugh a little bit, but he suppressed it and pretended to be profound, "The chief disciple is the one with the best kung fu in the entire Yunhua Palace."
Hearing this, Man Jiangxue didn't show any surprise, nor did she show a little admiration, but just said flatly: "It's a pleasure to meet you."
Realizing that she still didn't believe in him, Yin Qiu smiled slightly, took Zhubing from his waist, shook the long sword, and said, "Then show you our Yunhua swordsmanship."
After she finished speaking, she immediately gathered her true energy in the palm of her hand, and danced her sword on the spot. Her figure was as agile as a wild goose.Man Jiangxue could remain calm at first, but as Yin Qiu's displayed strength became more and more amazing, Man Jiangxue gradually showed yearning, the brilliance in his eyes flickered, and his eyes followed Yin Qiu's figure .
After the sword dance, Yin Qiu took the sword away and stood firmly three steps away from Man Jiangxue.She observed Man Jiangxue's expression and asked with a smile, "How?"
Man Jiangxue calmed down a lot of indifference for a moment, and looked at Yin Qiu with more approval and praise in his eyes."Wonderful," she said softly.
After being praised, Yin Qiu said complacently, "Then do you think I am qualified enough to teach you Kung Fu?"
"You are very powerful, young and promising," Man Jiangxue said, "I'm afraid I'm not talented enough to be your student."
Yin Qiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You? Talented and dull?" She took a few steps towards Man Jiangxue and teased, "You are too self-effacing. In terms of talent, I am actually far behind you. Our Yunhua Palace All people combined, no one can match your talent."
"You have never seen me, let alone a shot," Man Jiangxue said, "How do you judge that I am talented?"
Yin Qiu stopped deliberately, and said in a mysterious way: "Because I can barely get on the stage in kung fu, and I can also tell fortunes, so I will know if you are talented or not, just by looking at you more."
Man Jiangxue said, "Fortune telling?"
Yin Qiu said: "Extend your hand, and I can read palms, and give you fortune-telling for free. It's also considered that you and I are destined."
Man Jiangxue looked at her, and said slowly: "My mother said that fate cannot be controlled by the sky. What kind of fate a person will have in this life depends on the person's various choices. Fortune-telling and divination are all empty talk and cannot be trusted."
"Your mother said it very well," Yin Qiu said, "but sometimes, some things are predestined after all, it's up to you to believe it or not."
Man Jiangxue said: "I don't believe in destiny, I only believe that success depends on people, and it has nothing to do with heaven."
Her self-confidence can be said to be innate, or it can be said to have been taught by her mother. It is really rare for a nine-year-old child to have such awareness.Yin Qiu didn't want to spoil the scenery, and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter whether it depends on people or heaven, it's what you want to do. But have you ever thought about people?"
Man Jiangxue said, "Who?"
"The people you will meet in this life," Yin Qiu said, "what you want to do can be achieved through your own efforts, but the people you meet are all destined to meet, just like your mother recruited many people from all walks of life to teach her." You work hard, but you don't know who you will welcome, right?"
Man Jiangxue thought for a while, and said "Yes", "It makes sense."
Yin Qiu laughed again: "It's like me, it's destiny that you and I meet today."
The breeze came slowly, and the fragrance of flowers surrounded the two of them.Hearing this, Man Jiangxue raised her eyes to look at Yin Qiu for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's true, it seems that destiny is not a lie, I have been educated."
After she finished speaking, she took the initiative to extend a hand to Yin Qiu. Yin Qiu bent his eyebrows, held Man Jiangxue's hand and looked at it for a while, and said seriously: "You came from a wealthy family, but you have experienced ups and downs. This year is your life. This crucial year, have you been to the palace yet?"
Man Jiangxue nodded: "I've been there."
Yin Qiu looked at the white and thin hand, and only after hearing this answer did he smell a not-so-obvious smell of medicine on Man Jiangxue's body. She should still be hurt. Counting the time, the sacrificial ceremony has just passed, and Man Jiangxue At the moment when Jiang Xue became famous, Yin Qiu thought of this, and suddenly felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.
If Man Jiangxue hadn't entered the palace back then, she wouldn't have emerged as a famous Xiling in the sacrificial ceremony, and wouldn't have been known about her existence by the King of Yongye. Even if Xiling would still perish, Man Jiangxue's life would probably be different. A scene.In this way, Ye Zhilan would not bear the burden of humiliation and go to the Central Plains to enter the Yunhua Palace, and she would not deliberately plan to harm the Ruyi Gate, and everything would not develop into what it was later.
So what is destined to happen, indeed, cannot be avoided no matter what.
Yin Qiu secretly thought: It would be great if there were real prophets in this world, even if she might miss out on her uncle because of this, but as long as the uncle can live a safe and happy life, she would rather not get acquainted with the uncle.
Countless thoughts flashed through her mind, and Yin Qiu suddenly had a bold idea—since this is her dream, can she take this opportunity to change the established facts so that the uncle will not experience so much suffering?
Even if the price is to run counter to my uncle, I will never meet and know her, nor will I fall in love with her in this life, but if I can give her a stable future in this dream, what is it?
At least they have got a happy ending in the real world outside the dream.
An unspeakable melancholy was born in his heart, and he was a little thankful that he had such a dream. Yin Qiu thought a lot, and then spoke in the sight of Man Jiangxue looking directly at her: "At this time next year, Xi Ling will The country will be destroyed and will be occupied by Eternal Night, if you want to be with your mother forever, you'd better persuade her to leave before then and live in another place."
Hearing her words, Man Jiangxue was slightly surprised, but she didn't make a fuss, she just asked, "Really?"
Yin Qiu finally saw some expressions on her face that a child of her age should have. Yin Qiu said solemnly: "I won't lie to you, really."
Perhaps Yin Qiu's expression and tone of voice are very sure, as if he is lying to her, Man Jiangxue withdrew his hand, silent for a while thoughtfully, but shook his head and said: "Even if you really know fortune-telling, even if What you said is true, and I will not go with my mother."
Yin Qiu was startled: "Why?"
Man Jiangxue said: "There is no reason," she looked at Yin Qiu, and said calmly, "The collapse of the country means the death of the family, not only my mother and I may be separated, but also the thousands of people in Xiling. If you The words will come true next year, so I must try my best to prevent that day from coming in this short period of time, instead of leaving the innocent people and going away to seek stability knowing that the Congress will be ruined and the family will perish. For Princess Xiling, I can have such a good life not because I was born in the palace, but because I was loved by the people. The food and clothing of the princes and nobles are all taken from the people. It's a fire. My mother also said that Xiling was coming to an end, so I knew about it early on, otherwise I wouldn't have said the words that made him despise me when I met my father in the palace two months ago. Although I I am still young and my abilities are limited, but I will not turn a blind eye to the status quo and do nothing. Your kindness reminds me that I understand, but I will not accept your suggestion, sorry."
It was hot in midsummer, and the two stood face to face under the scorching sun, the same white clothes billowing in the wind, like clouds.
Yin Qiu was in a trance when he heard it, and his heart of reverence spontaneously arose.
This is really what the uncle can say, she is not just talking on paper, she can really do what she says.
"It's noon, and it's time to pass the meal in the hall. I'm going to say hello to my mother." Man Jiangxue turned sideways, "Will you come with me?"
Yin Qiu said, "No need, I won't go there."
"Why are you crying?" Man Jiangxue asked.
Yin Qiu's eyes were reddish, and the tears did not flow down, but wet his eyelashes.Yin Qiu said: "I was moved by what you just said."
Man Jiangxue stared at her intently, and suddenly asked, "Where have we met before?"
Yin Qiu was slightly stunned, and said, "Maybe," she smiled, "Maybe I saw it in my dream."
Man Jiangxue said: "Your sword is very good, what's its name?"
Yin Qiu said: "It's called Zhubing, and you will have such a good sword in the future."
"Chasing Ice..." Man Jiangxue said, "Good name, if you want to chase ice, you must first get Ningshuang, then my sword will be called Ningshuang from now on."
Yin Qiu choked up for a while, unable to reply.
"I come here to practice sword every day, you can come to me later after dinner," Man Jiangxue said, "I am willing to learn kung fu from you, as long as you don't dislike me."
Yin Qiu said, "Why would I dislike you?"
--I loved you so much.
"Then it's an agreement." Man Jiangxue took two steps back, looked at Yin Qiu and smiled lightly, "When I come later, you must remember to come too."
Yin Qiu said, "I will definitely come."
The corner of the skirt drew a beautiful arc in the wind, and Man Jiangxue bowed her hands and walked towards the outside of the martial arts field step by step with her sword in hand.Yin Qiu looked at her back, and his heart throbbed several times, which was indescribable.
She yelled as thinly as a mosquito's feet: "Uncle Master..."
"Uncle Master."
"Uncle Master!"
But people have gone far.
The scene in front of him began to blur, turning into a cloud of white mist that could not go away. Yin Qiu searched and called in the fog.
Suddenly, a voice responded, "I am here."
Like a ray of dawn in the darkness, that voice guided Yin Qiu, opening a bright road in the mist.The white light became more and more glaring, filling the sky and the earth, Yin Qiu trembled, and suddenly opened his eyes, in sight were the familiar mattress and bed curtains, and the person hugging her tightly above.
It was snowing heavily outside the house, but Hongfeng remained the same. She returned to Jingyue Peak and Chen Xing Palace again.
Yin Qiu was in a daze, he was still a little ignorant when he woke up just now, he waited for a long time before looking at Man Jiangxue, and said without saying a word, "Uncle Master..."
"Did you have a nightmare?" Man Jiangxue held her in her arms and coaxed her softly, "It's okay, I'm here."
"Uncle!" Yin Qiu sat up all of a sudden, hugged Man Jiangxue tightly with both hands, and said hoarsely, "I dreamed of you, I really dreamed of you..."
Man Jiangxue lowered her head, kissed the tears off Yin Qiu's face little by little, and asked, "What did you dream about me?"
Yin Qiu couldn't calm down his emotions well, so he threw himself into her arms and cried for a while before telling Man Jiangxue about his dream. After hearing this, Man Jiangxue picked a trivial matter and said, "How can I I wonder if you can tell fortunes? Did you think I was a fool because of my young age?"
Yin Qiu originally thought that she would say something else, but she didn't expect that the moment she opened her mouth, it would be a questioning.Yin Qiu said angrily: "What's wrong with lying to you? I've been rebelling recently. It's hard for me to be such an uncle who dreamed of being a kid when I was a child. I'm going to lie to you. I'm willing to be a bad person."
Man Jiangxue said: "Okay, okay, you have the final say." After she finished speaking, she suddenly frowned, showing a little memory and said, "But your dream... I remember that I was in another hospital when I was young. I met a person in the palace, and the incident was generally not much different from what you described, and I went back to the training ground after having lunch with my mother in the temple, and that person never came again, and I waited for her for a long time."
Yin Qiu was shocked and said, "Really?"
Man Jiangxue glanced at her, and said inexplicably: "Otherwise, why do you think I came to Yunhua Palace? It is also possible to go to Ziwei Sect."
Yin Qiu was completely dumbfounded: "No way... Then, did Master Shi really see me when he was a child?"
Man Jiangxue smiled knowingly: "Maybe it is."
Yin Qiu was stunned, and noticed that Man Jiangxue's smile seemed a bit unpredictable, so he leaned over to stare at her, and said seriously, "Are you serious?"
Man Jiangxue said, "Of course it's—fake."
Yin Qiu almost couldn't come up with a breath: "How can you lie?! I almost believed it!"
"You can lie to me, and I can lie to you too," Man Jiangxue said frankly, "Isn't it fair to reciprocate courtesy?"
After all the ups and downs in her mood, Yin Qiu suddenly felt a little angry, she ground her teeth, and hummed angrily. When she was about to bite Man Jiangxue's neck to vent her anger, Man Jiangxue blocked her first. Pressing Yin Qiu's lips and kissing her for a long time, she was so angry that she couldn't speak.
Not long after, Man Jiangxue moved away a little, looked at Yin Qiu and said, "I heard you."
Yin Qiu was still angry, and when he heard the words, he said angrily: "What did you hear? I bullied you in my dream! Will you come back after being bullied?"
"Look, I lost my temper again." Man Jiangxue smiled and said, "Did you bully me? I didn't hear that. I just heard you talking in your sleep."
Recalling that he teased her a lot in the dream, Yin Qiu inevitably felt a little guilty, and his voice softened: "What sleep talk...?"
Man Jiangxue held her face in her hands, and said word by word: "You said——you love me very much."
Yin Qiu's heartbeat stopped suddenly, and he couldn't believe it: "Really? Did I say that?"
"Well," Man Jiangxue said, "I didn't lie to you, it's true."
Yin Qiu felt a little embarrassed again, she didn't expect that she would say such nonsense, she glanced at Man Jiangxue, and asked, "What about the uncle?"
Man Jiangxue raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and said next to Yin Qiu's lips, "I love you very much, too."
The author has something to say:
The snow was not heavy, it was fragmented, and it didn't seem to be there until night, it fell like catkins in groups, and soon covered the mountains with a layer of spotless white, which was really beautiful.
Yin Qiusong, with his clothes loosely wrapped and his hair still wet, trotted out from behind the screen like a gust of wind.Under the light of the candle, her face was flushed, her eyes were watery, her flustered expression was somewhat shy, and she wrapped herself in a quilt as soon as she got on the bed.
Man Jiangxue followed behind and showed her face. The large casual clothes were as white as frost outside the window, filled with fragrance, and the halo made her face hazy and soft, more beautiful than the shiny pearl buttons on the skirt. conspicuous.
"What are you running for?"
Yin Qiu huddled in the corner of the bed, only showing her flickering eyes, she glanced at Man Jiangxue, and said in a muffled voice: "... whoever made the master keep touching me, I told you not to do that gone."
"What about me?" Man Jiangxue took a dry towel and said in a flat tone, "Didn't you invite me to take a bath with you? The bucket is just that big, two people squeezed in it will inevitably touch each other, and I didn't mean it."
Yin Qiu frowned, and said, "Isn't it intentional? I was very ticklish, and you kept touching it..."
"Just feel around," Man Jiangxue went to the couch and sat down, looked at Yin Qiu and said, "It's clear that you asked me to rub your back, why do you make me sound like a disciple."
"Are you just rubbing my back?" Yin Qiu blushed and retorted in a low voice, "You obviously didn't just rub my back, you also touched other places."
Man Jiangxue said, "Where did I touch?"
Yin Qiu stretched out his hand, snapped his fingers and said, "Touch me... anyway, it's just touching."
"So what's the matter? It's just to help you take a bath," Man Jiangxue looked calm, "Besides, I'm here. If you feel that you have suffered a disadvantage, just touch it back."
Yin Qiu looked at her, and his gaze stayed on Man Jiangxue's slightly open neckline for a while, then he cleared his throat and said, "That, that's not necessary..."
"Come out," Man Jiangxue patted her side, "Hair is not dry, be careful of catching a cold."
Yin Qiu blinked his eyes twice, took off the quilt slowly, Man Jiangxue stretched out his long hand, and pulled her into his arms, then rubbed Yin Qiu with a handkerchief, and said: "I'll always be there I can't get rid of this problem, I have to dry my hair before going to bed after bathing, how many times have I told you, why can't I remember?"
Yin Qiudong didn't dare to move, lay on Man Jiangxue's chest and thought for a moment, then replied: "Yesterday Uncle Wen said that I have been a little rebellious recently, maybe I have reached the age of rebellion? I still want to listen to what my uncle said, but I just can't help but turn against you, and I don't know what's going on."
"You never rebelled when you were young, why did you become rebellious when you grew up?" Man Jiangxue looked at Yin Qiu and asked, "Recently, you have been absent-minded in everything you do, and you always like to wander off. What's on your mind?"
Yin Qiu said blankly: "No..." She adjusted her sitting posture and looked at Man Jiangxue, "Maybe everything is over and there is no turbulence or accident. In fact, this is a good thing, but I I always feel empty inside.”
Man Jiangxue wiped her hair patiently and meticulously. Hearing this, she pondered for a while, and then asked, "But is there any unfinished wish? Or is there anyone else that you can't let go of?"
Yin Qiu thought for a while, then shook his head: "No more, my wish is over, and everyone is living a very good life, and no one can't let me go. Maybe it's just that I'm not used to the calm life now. I haven't lived it since I was a child. I have a peaceful life for a few days, and now everything is settled and all parties are peaceful, but I feel a little uncomfortable after being idle for more than half a year, and I don't know what to do next."
Man Jiangxue said: "You are already the chief disciple, and you have more burdens and responsibilities than before. In the past, you only needed to concentrate on studying literature and martial arts at Jingyue Peak, and you didn't need to worry about other things. Now, the errands in the palace are also very important. A part of it is on you, and it stands to reason that you should be busier than before, but why don't you know what you should do?"
Yin Qiu said: "I have done well what a chief disciple should do. At the same time, I am also working hard to improve my swordsmanship. I only have one goal in the short term, and that is to beat Senior Sister Ji one day," she said, smiling. , "When I can beat Senior Sister Ji, I will beat Senior Uncle again. By that time, I will be the most powerful person in the palace!"
Man Jiangxue chuckled: "It's not that I want to throw cold water on you, but if you want to beat me, it will probably be very difficult."
"You have self-confidence, and I have self-confidence," Yin Qiu said, "What if I can beat you in the future?"
Man Jiangxue said: "Why do you have to beat me? Have you ever met someone who wants to beat his sweetheart all day long?"
Yin Qiu choked on the second half of her sentence, and said non-stop: "That's true, isn't Senior Sister Ji?"
Man Jiangxue paused as she rubbed her hair, and said with a bit of irony: "That's true. But she studied hard at the beginning to catch Wen Chaoyu back, and she retreated later to snatch Wen Chaoyu back from Nangong Min. Then you are for what?"
"No reason, I just want to do this," Yin Qiu said confidently, "I'm going to beat my uncle."
The corners of Man Jiangxue's lips were slightly bent, she pinched Yin Qiu's cheek, and said teasingly: "It seems that Wen Zhaoyu is right, you are indeed at the time of rebellion, and the rebellion is a bit late," after saying that Said, "But it's a good thing to have a goal. I'm waiting for the day when you defeat me."
Yin Qiu laughed: "Actually, I just said this casually. Uncle Shi is so much older than me. It is really difficult for me to surpass you, unless I can meet Uncle Shi when I was a child and find him when you haven't learned kung fu well." If you are singled out, then I will definitely win."
Man Jiangxue smiled without saying a word.
"What did Master look like when he was young?" Yin Qiu tilted his head, staring straight at Man Jiangxue.
"I don't know about that either," Man Jiangxue said, "Who do I ask if you ask me?"
"Have you always looked in the mirror?" Yin Qiu was curious, "Is there a big difference from now?"
Man Jiangxue thought back for a while, and said: "If you only talk about the appearance, the change is not too big. Of course, this is just my own opinion. In short, if you see it, you should be able to recognize me at a glance."
Yin Qiu said: "But I just can't see it. Where can I go to see my uncle when I was a child?"
Man Jiangxue hung up the veil and smiled: "That can only be seen in a dream."
After turning off the lights, the light in the bedroom suddenly dimmed, only the lanterns in the corridor cast a dim light, and the visibility was not high.The two took off their coats and groped into the quilt. Yin Qiu leaned on Man Jiangxue's arm, hugged her and kissed her for a while, then said innocently: "Then let's meet in a dream, uncle hug me tightly." A little, so that I can find you soon in my dream."
Man Jiangxue held her in his arms, and they were almost close to Yin Qiuyan, and said, "Then let's compare and see who can find the other first."
Yin Qiu was drowsy, nodded his head and said, "Okay, I must find Master Uncle first..."
Man Jiangxue sniffed the fragrance of her hair, and said, "What if it's me first?"
"No chance," Yin Qiu squeezed into her arms, "When I was young, my uncle found me first, so in my dream, I should be the one who found my uncle first, just let me go. "
Man Jiangxue laughed when she heard it, but she also responded softly: "Okay, okay, let you go."
·
At dawn the next day, when Yin Qiu woke up again, Man Jiangxue was no longer in the room.
Surrounded by crisp birdsong and noisy cicadas outside, the sky is extremely bright, the bed is covered with curtains, and the room is filled with a unique fragrance of incense. Yin Qiu rubbed his eyes and sat up. When he smelled the smell of incense, he first thought of When did Man Jiangxue change the kind of incense, and when he heard the cicadas outside the house, he wondered where the cicadas came from in winter?
She stretched out her hand to push aside the curtain, and wanted to put on her shoes and sleep on the bed, but what she saw made Yin Qiu startled, and the remaining sleepiness in her mind immediately disappeared.
The room is not big, and the furnishings are very simple. Although it is very clean and tidy, there is not much decoration. It looks like a guest room somewhere, but it doesn't look like an inn.
There are no red maples outside the window, no maple grove, this is neither Jingyue Peak nor Shen Xingdian.
What is even more bizarre is that there is no snow in the yard, and there is no thin ice in the rockery pool. The cicadas are singing and the sun is shining brightly. This is clearly a summer day, not a winter with heavy snow.
As soon as he woke up, it was inexplicably changed from winter to summer, and came to a completely unfamiliar place. Yin Qiu was dumbfounded, and quickly jumped off the bed and opened the door to go out. Unexpectedly, the surrounding area was deserted, and there was no one. The pure white gardenias and jasmines in the courtyard are in full bloom, and the fragrance of flowers is overflowing. It is a quiet and elegant place to live.
where is thisWhy is she here all of a sudden?
"Master uncle!" Yin Qiu shouted, but there was no answer for a long time, so he had to leave the courtyard and walk outside.
Out of the gate, there are many Qionglouyuyu outside, which is very majestic, with verandahs running across, the layout is patchwork, the red walls cover the sight, the glazed tiles reflect the bright sky, this place is full of dignity, it is like a magnificent palace The palace here is even more resplendent than Yunhua Palace.
Yin Qiu was bewildered, looked around in a daze, and stood at the door at a loss.
Could it be that he was dreaming?
Yin Qiu immediately rolled up his sleeve and bit down on his wrist.
It hurts!
If you feel pain, does it mean that you are not dreaming?
But how could she sleep in a place she had never been before?Where did Man Jiangxue go?
Yin Qiu called Man Jiangxue again, but still did not get any response. The place was empty, and no one passed by after standing here for a long time, so Yin Qiu had to walk around like a headless fly, trying to find someone to ask the way. But she walked for a long time, but she didn't meet anyone, and this place is like some kind of maze, she can't find her head when she turns around, and it's impossible to go out and take a look on the street.
The sun was shining brightly, and Yin Qiu was tired and hot after walking for half a day. Just as he was about to choose a shady place to sit down and rest his feet, he suddenly heard a familiar sound coming from somewhere, vaguely someone was practicing sword, Yin Qiu couldn't tell the direction, so he just flew down to the eaves, stood tall, and then saw a familiar figure practicing alone on the martial arts field on the east side, dressed in crisp white clothes, which was very eye-catching.
Yin Qiu was overjoyed, and hurriedly moved over, but when she got closer and looked again, she found that the figure was not as tall as she had imagined, and was even half a head shorter than Yin Qiu. A little girl about eight or nine years old.
Yin Qiu was so astonished that he pinched himself subconsciously.
It still hurts!
So is it a dream? !
Yin Qiu couldn't help but fell into deep self-doubt, squatting silently on the roof of the roof and looking down carefully, the little girl had calm eyebrows, outstanding appearance, and a rare clearness at a young age. Expensive and calm, extraordinary bearing.
That face... No matter how you look at it, it's my uncle!
Could it be that she really had such a dream after making an appointment with her uncle to meet in a dream before going to bed last night?
But this dream is too real!
Yin Qiu scratched his head and scratched his head, thinking about it for a while, but didn't understand what was going on, and finally he comforted himself that it was just a dream, and when he was about to observe Man Jiangxue secretly for a while, he saw Man Jiangxue who didn't know when. He stopped, and stood in the middle of the field looking up at her.
Across the distance, the two people looked at each other silently, those eyes were almost the same as after many years, there was some undisguised alienation in the indifference, polite and polite, just more of the purity of children, Not as mature as Man Jiangxue later.
Facing the gaze she cast on him, Yin Qiu was stunned for no reason, and asked tentatively, "Can you see me?"
The young Man Jiangxue nodded slightly, and said in a flat tone: "I can see it."
Seeing her answering his own words, Yin Qiu was very surprised, thinking that he had never had such a real and clear dream before, and couldn't help but smile with curled lips.
"Why are you sitting so high?" Man Jiangxue's voice was immature, but her posture was very upright, her expression was calm and calm as soon as she held the sword, as if she didn't feel abrupt because of Yin Qiu's sudden appearance.
After confirming that he was in a dream, Yin Qiu felt relieved, and replied with a smile: "You can bask in the sun when you are in a high place. Do you want to come?"
In the light of the sky, Yin Qiu sat leisurely on the eaves, with her legs dangling in the air and her skirt fluttering. The sunlight reflected her smile very brightly, more beautiful than the flowers in the yard.
Man Jiangxue looked at her for a while, and said, "I haven't learned Qinggong yet, so I can't make it."
Yin Qiu slightly raised his eyebrows, and asked enthusiastically, "How old are you?"
Man Jiangxue said, "Nine years old."
Nine years old... Isn't that the year when my uncle was summoned to the palace to participate in the sacrificial ceremony?It stands to reason that a nine-year-old uncle could fly up into the air to support the Xiling Banner in a violent storm. It is impossible that she has not learned lightness kung fu. It seems that she does not know Yin Qiu's identity, so she lied to her.
Yin Qiu saw the truth and said happily, "Is that so, do you want to come up? If so, I can bring you up."
Man Jiangxue asked without answering, "Who are you?"
Yin Qiu reacted quickly, and already guessed that this place should be the imperial courtyard where Man Jiangxue lived when she was a child. She smiled and said, "My surname is Yin, and my single name is Qiu." After a pause, she continued, " I'm a quack who your mother invited to teach you kung fu."
When Man Jiangxue heard this, she didn't respond immediately, as if she was weighing the credibility of Yin Qiu's words.
Although the girl in front of her is young, her temperament is as calm as smoke, and she has a kind smile in her conversation. She is more like a boudoir lady than a person from the world.Man Jiangxue looked at Yin Qiu and said, "I haven't seen you before."
"I just came here today," Yin Qiu said, falling lightly from the eaves to the ground, "You must have heard of Yunhua Palace? I am a disciple of Yunhua."
Man Jiangxue stared at her with unmistakable scrutiny and scrutiny in her eyes.
Seeing her being so vigilant and refusing to trust herself easily, Yin Qiu secretly lamented that her uncle had been thoughtful since she was a child. If she was nine years old, she would believe whatever others said, and there would be no uncle Such a calm performance.
So Yin Qiu added another sentence: "The clothes I wear are the disciple clothes of Yunhua Palace, and your mother is from the Central Plains, so you should be able to tell that I am too."
Man Jiangxue said: "I have met disciple Yunhua." She looked Yin Qiu back and forth, "Although your clothes are similar to theirs, they are not the same."
"Because this is the disciple uniform that only chief disciples can wear," Yin Qiu said, "Have you seen the chief disciple of Yunhua Palace?"
Man Jiangxue shook his head: "Never."
"Then you have seen it now." Yin Qiu didn't know why he wanted to laugh a little bit, but he suppressed it and pretended to be profound, "The chief disciple is the one with the best kung fu in the entire Yunhua Palace."
Hearing this, Man Jiangxue didn't show any surprise, nor did she show a little admiration, but just said flatly: "It's a pleasure to meet you."
Realizing that she still didn't believe in him, Yin Qiu smiled slightly, took Zhubing from his waist, shook the long sword, and said, "Then show you our Yunhua swordsmanship."
After she finished speaking, she immediately gathered her true energy in the palm of her hand, and danced her sword on the spot. Her figure was as agile as a wild goose.Man Jiangxue could remain calm at first, but as Yin Qiu's displayed strength became more and more amazing, Man Jiangxue gradually showed yearning, the brilliance in his eyes flickered, and his eyes followed Yin Qiu's figure .
After the sword dance, Yin Qiu took the sword away and stood firmly three steps away from Man Jiangxue.She observed Man Jiangxue's expression and asked with a smile, "How?"
Man Jiangxue calmed down a lot of indifference for a moment, and looked at Yin Qiu with more approval and praise in his eyes."Wonderful," she said softly.
After being praised, Yin Qiu said complacently, "Then do you think I am qualified enough to teach you Kung Fu?"
"You are very powerful, young and promising," Man Jiangxue said, "I'm afraid I'm not talented enough to be your student."
Yin Qiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You? Talented and dull?" She took a few steps towards Man Jiangxue and teased, "You are too self-effacing. In terms of talent, I am actually far behind you. Our Yunhua Palace All people combined, no one can match your talent."
"You have never seen me, let alone a shot," Man Jiangxue said, "How do you judge that I am talented?"
Yin Qiu stopped deliberately, and said in a mysterious way: "Because I can barely get on the stage in kung fu, and I can also tell fortunes, so I will know if you are talented or not, just by looking at you more."
Man Jiangxue said, "Fortune telling?"
Yin Qiu said: "Extend your hand, and I can read palms, and give you fortune-telling for free. It's also considered that you and I are destined."
Man Jiangxue looked at her, and said slowly: "My mother said that fate cannot be controlled by the sky. What kind of fate a person will have in this life depends on the person's various choices. Fortune-telling and divination are all empty talk and cannot be trusted."
"Your mother said it very well," Yin Qiu said, "but sometimes, some things are predestined after all, it's up to you to believe it or not."
Man Jiangxue said: "I don't believe in destiny, I only believe that success depends on people, and it has nothing to do with heaven."
Her self-confidence can be said to be innate, or it can be said to have been taught by her mother. It is really rare for a nine-year-old child to have such awareness.Yin Qiu didn't want to spoil the scenery, and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter whether it depends on people or heaven, it's what you want to do. But have you ever thought about people?"
Man Jiangxue said, "Who?"
"The people you will meet in this life," Yin Qiu said, "what you want to do can be achieved through your own efforts, but the people you meet are all destined to meet, just like your mother recruited many people from all walks of life to teach her." You work hard, but you don't know who you will welcome, right?"
Man Jiangxue thought for a while, and said "Yes", "It makes sense."
Yin Qiu laughed again: "It's like me, it's destiny that you and I meet today."
The breeze came slowly, and the fragrance of flowers surrounded the two of them.Hearing this, Man Jiangxue raised her eyes to look at Yin Qiu for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's true, it seems that destiny is not a lie, I have been educated."
After she finished speaking, she took the initiative to extend a hand to Yin Qiu. Yin Qiu bent his eyebrows, held Man Jiangxue's hand and looked at it for a while, and said seriously: "You came from a wealthy family, but you have experienced ups and downs. This year is your life. This crucial year, have you been to the palace yet?"
Man Jiangxue nodded: "I've been there."
Yin Qiu looked at the white and thin hand, and only after hearing this answer did he smell a not-so-obvious smell of medicine on Man Jiangxue's body. She should still be hurt. Counting the time, the sacrificial ceremony has just passed, and Man Jiangxue At the moment when Jiang Xue became famous, Yin Qiu thought of this, and suddenly felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.
If Man Jiangxue hadn't entered the palace back then, she wouldn't have emerged as a famous Xiling in the sacrificial ceremony, and wouldn't have been known about her existence by the King of Yongye. Even if Xiling would still perish, Man Jiangxue's life would probably be different. A scene.In this way, Ye Zhilan would not bear the burden of humiliation and go to the Central Plains to enter the Yunhua Palace, and she would not deliberately plan to harm the Ruyi Gate, and everything would not develop into what it was later.
So what is destined to happen, indeed, cannot be avoided no matter what.
Yin Qiu secretly thought: It would be great if there were real prophets in this world, even if she might miss out on her uncle because of this, but as long as the uncle can live a safe and happy life, she would rather not get acquainted with the uncle.
Countless thoughts flashed through her mind, and Yin Qiu suddenly had a bold idea—since this is her dream, can she take this opportunity to change the established facts so that the uncle will not experience so much suffering?
Even if the price is to run counter to my uncle, I will never meet and know her, nor will I fall in love with her in this life, but if I can give her a stable future in this dream, what is it?
At least they have got a happy ending in the real world outside the dream.
An unspeakable melancholy was born in his heart, and he was a little thankful that he had such a dream. Yin Qiu thought a lot, and then spoke in the sight of Man Jiangxue looking directly at her: "At this time next year, Xi Ling will The country will be destroyed and will be occupied by Eternal Night, if you want to be with your mother forever, you'd better persuade her to leave before then and live in another place."
Hearing her words, Man Jiangxue was slightly surprised, but she didn't make a fuss, she just asked, "Really?"
Yin Qiu finally saw some expressions on her face that a child of her age should have. Yin Qiu said solemnly: "I won't lie to you, really."
Perhaps Yin Qiu's expression and tone of voice are very sure, as if he is lying to her, Man Jiangxue withdrew his hand, silent for a while thoughtfully, but shook his head and said: "Even if you really know fortune-telling, even if What you said is true, and I will not go with my mother."
Yin Qiu was startled: "Why?"
Man Jiangxue said: "There is no reason," she looked at Yin Qiu, and said calmly, "The collapse of the country means the death of the family, not only my mother and I may be separated, but also the thousands of people in Xiling. If you The words will come true next year, so I must try my best to prevent that day from coming in this short period of time, instead of leaving the innocent people and going away to seek stability knowing that the Congress will be ruined and the family will perish. For Princess Xiling, I can have such a good life not because I was born in the palace, but because I was loved by the people. The food and clothing of the princes and nobles are all taken from the people. It's a fire. My mother also said that Xiling was coming to an end, so I knew about it early on, otherwise I wouldn't have said the words that made him despise me when I met my father in the palace two months ago. Although I I am still young and my abilities are limited, but I will not turn a blind eye to the status quo and do nothing. Your kindness reminds me that I understand, but I will not accept your suggestion, sorry."
It was hot in midsummer, and the two stood face to face under the scorching sun, the same white clothes billowing in the wind, like clouds.
Yin Qiu was in a trance when he heard it, and his heart of reverence spontaneously arose.
This is really what the uncle can say, she is not just talking on paper, she can really do what she says.
"It's noon, and it's time to pass the meal in the hall. I'm going to say hello to my mother." Man Jiangxue turned sideways, "Will you come with me?"
Yin Qiu said, "No need, I won't go there."
"Why are you crying?" Man Jiangxue asked.
Yin Qiu's eyes were reddish, and the tears did not flow down, but wet his eyelashes.Yin Qiu said: "I was moved by what you just said."
Man Jiangxue stared at her intently, and suddenly asked, "Where have we met before?"
Yin Qiu was slightly stunned, and said, "Maybe," she smiled, "Maybe I saw it in my dream."
Man Jiangxue said: "Your sword is very good, what's its name?"
Yin Qiu said: "It's called Zhubing, and you will have such a good sword in the future."
"Chasing Ice..." Man Jiangxue said, "Good name, if you want to chase ice, you must first get Ningshuang, then my sword will be called Ningshuang from now on."
Yin Qiu choked up for a while, unable to reply.
"I come here to practice sword every day, you can come to me later after dinner," Man Jiangxue said, "I am willing to learn kung fu from you, as long as you don't dislike me."
Yin Qiu said, "Why would I dislike you?"
--I loved you so much.
"Then it's an agreement." Man Jiangxue took two steps back, looked at Yin Qiu and smiled lightly, "When I come later, you must remember to come too."
Yin Qiu said, "I will definitely come."
The corner of the skirt drew a beautiful arc in the wind, and Man Jiangxue bowed her hands and walked towards the outside of the martial arts field step by step with her sword in hand.Yin Qiu looked at her back, and his heart throbbed several times, which was indescribable.
She yelled as thinly as a mosquito's feet: "Uncle Master..."
"Uncle Master."
"Uncle Master!"
But people have gone far.
The scene in front of him began to blur, turning into a cloud of white mist that could not go away. Yin Qiu searched and called in the fog.
Suddenly, a voice responded, "I am here."
Like a ray of dawn in the darkness, that voice guided Yin Qiu, opening a bright road in the mist.The white light became more and more glaring, filling the sky and the earth, Yin Qiu trembled, and suddenly opened his eyes, in sight were the familiar mattress and bed curtains, and the person hugging her tightly above.
It was snowing heavily outside the house, but Hongfeng remained the same. She returned to Jingyue Peak and Chen Xing Palace again.
Yin Qiu was in a daze, he was still a little ignorant when he woke up just now, he waited for a long time before looking at Man Jiangxue, and said without saying a word, "Uncle Master..."
"Did you have a nightmare?" Man Jiangxue held her in her arms and coaxed her softly, "It's okay, I'm here."
"Uncle!" Yin Qiu sat up all of a sudden, hugged Man Jiangxue tightly with both hands, and said hoarsely, "I dreamed of you, I really dreamed of you..."
Man Jiangxue lowered her head, kissed the tears off Yin Qiu's face little by little, and asked, "What did you dream about me?"
Yin Qiu couldn't calm down his emotions well, so he threw himself into her arms and cried for a while before telling Man Jiangxue about his dream. After hearing this, Man Jiangxue picked a trivial matter and said, "How can I I wonder if you can tell fortunes? Did you think I was a fool because of my young age?"
Yin Qiu originally thought that she would say something else, but she didn't expect that the moment she opened her mouth, it would be a questioning.Yin Qiu said angrily: "What's wrong with lying to you? I've been rebelling recently. It's hard for me to be such an uncle who dreamed of being a kid when I was a child. I'm going to lie to you. I'm willing to be a bad person."
Man Jiangxue said: "Okay, okay, you have the final say." After she finished speaking, she suddenly frowned, showing a little memory and said, "But your dream... I remember that I was in another hospital when I was young. I met a person in the palace, and the incident was generally not much different from what you described, and I went back to the training ground after having lunch with my mother in the temple, and that person never came again, and I waited for her for a long time."
Yin Qiu was shocked and said, "Really?"
Man Jiangxue glanced at her, and said inexplicably: "Otherwise, why do you think I came to Yunhua Palace? It is also possible to go to Ziwei Sect."
Yin Qiu was completely dumbfounded: "No way... Then, did Master Shi really see me when he was a child?"
Man Jiangxue smiled knowingly: "Maybe it is."
Yin Qiu was stunned, and noticed that Man Jiangxue's smile seemed a bit unpredictable, so he leaned over to stare at her, and said seriously, "Are you serious?"
Man Jiangxue said, "Of course it's—fake."
Yin Qiu almost couldn't come up with a breath: "How can you lie?! I almost believed it!"
"You can lie to me, and I can lie to you too," Man Jiangxue said frankly, "Isn't it fair to reciprocate courtesy?"
After all the ups and downs in her mood, Yin Qiu suddenly felt a little angry, she ground her teeth, and hummed angrily. When she was about to bite Man Jiangxue's neck to vent her anger, Man Jiangxue blocked her first. Pressing Yin Qiu's lips and kissing her for a long time, she was so angry that she couldn't speak.
Not long after, Man Jiangxue moved away a little, looked at Yin Qiu and said, "I heard you."
Yin Qiu was still angry, and when he heard the words, he said angrily: "What did you hear? I bullied you in my dream! Will you come back after being bullied?"
"Look, I lost my temper again." Man Jiangxue smiled and said, "Did you bully me? I didn't hear that. I just heard you talking in your sleep."
Recalling that he teased her a lot in the dream, Yin Qiu inevitably felt a little guilty, and his voice softened: "What sleep talk...?"
Man Jiangxue held her face in her hands, and said word by word: "You said——you love me very much."
Yin Qiu's heartbeat stopped suddenly, and he couldn't believe it: "Really? Did I say that?"
"Well," Man Jiangxue said, "I didn't lie to you, it's true."
Yin Qiu felt a little embarrassed again, she didn't expect that she would say such nonsense, she glanced at Man Jiangxue, and asked, "What about the uncle?"
Man Jiangxue raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and said next to Yin Qiu's lips, "I love you very much, too."
