Lonely City without Frost

"Does the city lord want to decide life and death with one sword or to condemn me with one sword?"

Asking such sharp words directly is forcing Ye Gucheng to take action, Zuo Wushuang is actually a little scared, after all, judging from her experience of more than seven years in the rivers and lakes, she will definitely fail if she meets this person.

Her master used to be the most famous sword in the world, but it has been passed down to her. At least Ximen Chuuxue and Liu Chengfeng are definitely faster than her. Naturally, it is impossible for the unparalleled Lord of Baiyun City to be slower than her.

In terms of talent in swordsmanship alone, she could still be proud before meeting Ximen, but after all these years, she finally understood that there are people beyond others. For Ye Gucheng, whom Ximen has always wanted most for a while, she really has nothing to do better than him. grasp.

"Is the city lord acquiescing to the former or the latter by not speaking?"

"Shut up! Who do you think you are to be so arrogant here?!" The Dutong obviously couldn't help it, and immediately refuted after hearing her words.

Zuo Wushuang was about to fight back, but he heard the cold voice of the man in front of him again, "...don't be rude."

"..."

Seeing that Ye Gucheng really didn't intend to embarrass herself, Zuo Wushuang was also a little strange, although she didn't think Ye Gucheng would kill herself, but what she didn't expect was that he would help her.

"City Lord!"

"Only people who don't understand swords will judge Ximen Fuxue like they do."

His voice was not loud but he was extremely intimidating. The expressions of passers-by who were still optimistic about Zuo Wushuang changed instantly.

But Zuo Wushuang suddenly laughed at this moment, "The city lord is really not an ordinary person."

Ye Gucheng didn't respond to her words, then turned and left, still dressed in white like a person out of the world.

He didn't say what to do with Zuo Wushuang, and he said that, which basically meant that she didn't care about Zuo Wushuang's previous murder.In this way, Na Dutong immediately retracted his brows and opened his mouth again, "Miss Zuo, please."

She watched Ye Gucheng's leaving back for a long time before she looked away, overturning her previous evaluation of him in her heart.

——This man is not just a unparalleled swordsman.

Zuo Wushuang's name has almost spread throughout Baiyun City after completing the formalities, being interrogated, and obtaining the identity certificate for entering and exiting the city gate on weekdays.

There are no inns in Baiyun City, but there are many entertainment places such as gambling houses.

Zuo Wushuang walked around for a long time but couldn't find a place to stay. On the contrary, everyone looked like a mouse or a cat when they saw her, which made her feel very boring.

Baiyun City is indeed worthy of its name. The white clouds are picturesque. If you stand on the top of the mountain and look far away, you can also see the magnificent seascape.

Zuo Wushuang grabbed the sword in his hand and took a deep breath of the fresh air on the top of the mountain, then pulled out his sword and carefully wiped the blade with a handkerchief.

"Who?!"

When she noticed the sound behind her, the person had already walked behind her. Even if she was too focused on wiping the vast sea just now, and she could get close without noticing it, this person's lightness kung fu is definitely not weak.

"Hmph, you are Zuo Wushuang?"

The young man was wearing a white dress that he was all too familiar with, his black hair was loosely scattered, his eyes were as chilling as his demeanor.

--alike.

— but just like.

"I am indeed Zuo Wushuang." She nodded, and replied quite indifferently, "...Is there something wrong?"

"I want to compete with you in swordsmanship!" After saying that, he took half a step back and pulled out his sword extremely fast, "A sword of frost and cold fourteen states..."

Even if she didn't know this young man, she still thought about it, "Sorry, I don't have time."

"Aren't you afraid to fight?!"

——It really doesn't look like it's so easy to get angry.

"The speed at which you draw your sword is not as fast as Ximen Chuuxue's." Stated this fact lightly, Zuo Wushuang hung his sword back around his waist, and sneered in his heart that he had begun to overestimate his lightness kung fu Then he flew up and left.

Little did they know that she played handsome, but she completely lost the direction she had finally identified, and when she fell from the sky into the forest, she only regretted it.

Just when she was going to walk in the woods first, she suddenly felt a forceful sword energy rushing towards her back, thinking it was the boy in white chasing him, Zuo Wushuang turned around without paying much attention.

But it was Ye Gucheng who came into view.

The sword energy had already been completely forced to his face, Zuo Wushuang had no time to think about other things, so he directly drew his sword to block the attack.

Even so, she was still a little slow, and Han Hai only blocked part of the sword energy when she got out of the sheath.

The material on the left shoulder was a little torn, but luckily nothing serious happened.

Too many things happened in this half day, even a person like Zuo Wushuang, who is easygoing and has become a habit, is a little helpless.

"……How will you be here?"

Still holding the sword in her hand, she breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Ye Gucheng stop.

This apology was insincere, and it seemed that the real positions of the host and the guest were reversed. Fortunately, Ye Gucheng didn't argue with her, and just said lightly that this is the restricted area of ​​Baiyun City, then turned and left.

Seeing his back for the second time today, Zuo Wushuang laughed at himself that he was unfamiliar with the place of life in a foreign country and at the same time suddenly remembered the bet with Lu Xiaofeng.

——It just gets harder and harder.

How hard is it to meet a person who is hard to come across three times in one day?

Zuo Wushuang originally thought that this was almost impossible, but today's experience made her believe that sometimes such things are not just nonsense.

Does that mean that the chance of winning the bet is not impossible?Zuo Wushuang looked at the man standing not far away, standing with his hands behind his back and looking into the distance, thinking silently.

The demeanor of Baiyun City Lord really lives up to her reputation, which also means that her future path will be indescribably tragic.

The worship of him by the people in this place was even more terrifying than she had imagined. She could tell from the fact that she hadn't found a place to stay after walking for a whole day.

It's not the first time she has done the thing of taking the sky as the seat and the ground as the seat, not only because there is no inn for her to live in, but also she is penniless now, and she doesn't even have the capital to try her luck in a gambling house.

After thinking for a long time by the boulders on the beach, he didn't have any idea to win the bet. This feeling of cursing Lu Xiaofeng [-] times in his heart is useless is really too bad.

It was midnight when she finally felt a little drowsy, and seeing that there was no one at Ye Gucheng's station before, and she didn't know what kind of mentality it was, she felt relieved.

The night wind blows along with the waves, and the white waves are more crystal clear under the moonlight, and the blossoms disappear after blooming on the beach.

The salty smell of the sea breeze infiltrated into the nostrils, Zuo Wushuang couldn't help shivering in the wind.

The sand under my feet should still be warm, but if I lie down directly on it, my clothes will probably be useless tomorrow morning.

No matter how cold it was, Zuo Wushuang couldn't resist the drowsiness, and Zuo Wushuang, who was half lying on the boulder, just grasped the sword at his waist and fell into a deep sleep.

Even though his rationality told him not to sleep too much, he finally couldn't stand it after a day of fatigue.

"Miss Zuo? Are you awake?"

Just when I opened my eyes, just when I thought my whole body would be sore, I suddenly realized that something was wrong with my surroundings, "... Where is this place?"

"This is Baiyun City."

—…It’s like saying nothing.

Zuo Wushuang looked at this room and the girl standing on standby. This room is obviously in good condition, especially the bed she is lying on now is much better than that boulder. The same is true for this girl. The clothes you wear are worth a lot of money.

"The city lord ordered to take good care of Miss Zuo. Is Miss Zuo going to get up now?"

She couldn't digest this sentence for a while, looked at the girl's smiling face for a long time, and finally couldn't help swallowing and asked, "...why am I here?"

"Of course the city lord brought you back." The little girl replied with a smile, "Miss Zuo doesn't want to put down her sword when she's sleeping."

Rao Zuo Wushuang, whose ability to accept has always been good, was also a little dazed at the moment, she stared at the exquisite gauze curtain on top of her for a while before she was sure that this was not her daydream, "...you go out first, I'm alone People can."

"Yes, the servant girl will bring the toiletries in later."

"...Ah...thank you."

After the girl went out and closed the door, Zuo Wushuang felt himself breathe again, Ye Gucheng was not the kind of person who would do such a thing, there was definitely something strange about it.

But he couldn't figure out what went wrong, so Zuo Wushuang simply got out of bed and arranged his clothes to wash up.

"Knock knock knock."

After a while, there was three knocks on the door, followed by the voice of the girl just now, "Miss Zuo, the slave has brought the toiletries."

"...Well, come in." Still not very used to ordering people around, Zuo Wushuang tried her best to pretend to be a friendly and kind heroine, but it was a pity that she smiled a bit forcedly.

After washing her face, the girl asked her if she needed someone to help her dress up. This question reminded her that there was a box of rouge in her bag, the most popular rouge from the most famous Baiyanzhai in Yangzhou.

But she didn't even remember to use it a few times, let alone use it.

Regarding her habit, although the girl was surprised, she didn't say much, and left the room after hearing her say that she had nothing to say next.

Until he cleaned himself up, Zuo Wushuang never thought of the reason why he was so lucky to be picked up by Ye Gucheng on the beach.

Or is it that he actually... now wants to settle accounts after the fall?
