Gold sparring [Comprehensive + Sword III]

After exchanging the gold and jewelry, apart from eating and sleeping, Ye Weixing's daily life was just being a training partner for the young Baiyun City Lord.

In her words, there is no better way to live a fairy life.

Ye Gucheng who paid a high amount of training fees: "..."

Originally, she was worried that such restless people as Chu Liuxiang and Hu Tiehua would not be able to stay on Feixian Island for two months, but when winter came, these two became as lazy as Ji Bingyan.

When Ye Weixing dutifully taught Ye Gucheng how to practice swords there, the two of them slept in the house together with Ji Bingyan, woke up and went to Baiyun City, which is said to be comparable to the south of the Yangtze River. Make a jug of wine and bring it back to her.

After half a month like this, Ye Weixing tasted all the wine shops on Feixian Island without even leaving the door.

She can even discuss with Hu Tiehua which one tastes the best.

When it comes to drinking, the two of them have always had similar tastes, neither as picky as Ji Bingyan, nor as elegant as Chu Liuxiang.

Affected by them, Dianhong, who could not drink alcohol at all, also drank a lot during these days, and developed a little capacity for alcohol.

However, having a drinking capacity does not mean that he is not drinking now.

The first time Ye Weixing saw him coming back behind Chu Liuxiang with a flushed face, he thought that the three of them were working together to deceive her little brother, and immediately pulled a little red behind her like an old hen protecting her cub, and frowned. Frowning, he said, "How old is he, why are you giving him alcohol?"

Before Hu Tiehua and the others had time to refute, Yidianhong lowered her head and grabbed her skirt, expressing that it was not what she thought, and that he was not drunk.

Ye Weixing: "..."

She felt very strange: "Didn't you always get used to drinking?"

A little red head drooped lower: "But you all like it."

When he said this, he was probably afraid that Ye Weixing would be smelled of alcohol on his body, so he shrank back.

In Ye Weixing's eyes, this appearance made her dumbfounded, but at the same time, she couldn't help reaching out and rubbing his head.

"You don't care what we like to do or not," she said, "The important thing is whether you like it or not!"

Yidianhong was silent for a moment, as if she was seriously thinking about this issue.

In the end he said softly: "I still like it now."

Knowing that he never tells a lie, and that what he says is what he says, Ye Weixing is relieved.

It's not a matter of forcing, she thought.

And if Yidianhong could get along better with the three of them, it would be a good thing.

Then it entered the twelfth lunar month, and the South China Sea became a little colder.

But to Chu Liuxiang and the others who had lived outside the Great Wall since they were young, this level of coldness was nothing at all.

Ye Weixing saw Hu Tiehua hooking a little red shoulder more than once to describe to him what the winter wind outside the Great Wall would look like, with exaggerated words and even more exaggerated actions, which made him froze for a while.

"Is it that scary?" he asked.

"Yeah." Hu Tiehua nodded frantically, caught Ye Weixing rolling his eyes at him out of the corner of his eye, and added, "So when I first saw Lao Ye, I really admired her."

A little red: "???"

Hu Tiehua was serious: "She actually dared to bare her shoulders in the cold windy weather outside the Great Wall, which shows that she is really a strong man."

A little red: "..."

When Ye Weixing heard this, he didn't even bother to roll his eyes.

As the new year approached, there were many chores in Baiyun City that Ye Gucheng had to deal with in person, so he came to look for her at night these two days.

When he came at night, Ye Weixing's day was free.

As a result, she saw the bad friend bluffing her younger brother in this space. After thinking about it for a while, she walked over and took a little red arm, and said, "Don't pay attention to Lao Hu, let's go and practice swords with me."

When she talked about practicing sword, her little red eyes lit up almost instantly: "Okay."

Ye Weixing clicked his tongue: "Just let me see how you've improved recently."

A little red suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

It's not that he has made no progress, but compared with the Baiyun city lord whom she has paid for advice recently, his progress is really small.

Thinking of this, he lowered his head subconsciously.

Ye Weixing didn't notice such details, she took the man to the most open place under the tree in the courtyard, drew her sword as usual, and said, "Come on, let's make some gestures."

A little red pursed her lips and nodded solemnly: "Okay."

Maybe it was because he had been thinking about the gap between himself and Ye Gucheng before making the gesture, but this time when he drew the sword, he actually showed a little hesitation, and his movements were a beat slower than usual.

Although Ye Weixing hadn't pointed him out for more than half a month, she still didn't notice his abnormality. She frowned, and simply raised her hand when his sword edge was coming towards her. .

Even the sword was useless, so he was restrained easily and freely.

A little red: "?!"

Before he could take a deep breath and ask what's the matter, Ye Weixing spoke first.

Ye Weixing said, "Why are you so nervous today?"

When Dianhong heard this, the wrist holding the sword froze again.

He couldn't tell a lie, but at the same time he was too embarrassed to tell Ye Weixing the reason for his nervousness, so he could only remain silent.

Ye Weixing was very inexplicable: "What's the matter?"

This time he opened his mouth, but still no sound came out.

Ye Weixing saw that he didn't want to talk about it anymore, and his mood was a little complicated for a while.

Considering that he was still a teenager, it might be counterproductive to speak harshly or force him to concentrate, and she even softened her tone when she spoke again.

She said: "Forget it, since you have something on your mind that you don't want to talk about, then I won't practice with you today."

"But since you have chosen to be a swordsman, every time you draw your sword, your heart should be on the sword."

"A swordsman will not hesitate or retreat when he strikes a sword, do you understand?"

A little red felt even more ashamed when she heard the words.

He thought he would care about himself who was not as good as Ye Gucheng, but he was still far from a real swordsman.

Thinking of this, he raised his head without hesitation, and met her gaze.

"You can practice." He said.

"Really?"

"En." He nodded, just like when he said he was willing to go with her.

"Come on then." She smiled, "I'm waiting."

Two people with two swords fought under the tree with only moves.

Ye Weixing had the heart to point out, so he restrained himself a lot more than usual during the fight, and when it ended, he didn't even mess up a single strand of hair.

Hu Tiehua, who was swung away by her before, has come back together.

Hu Tiehua rushed a little red and said: "You should cherish Lao Ye's advice, look at how much it costs the city master Ye to find her for a fight."

A little red: "..." Thinking about it like this suddenly made it a lot more balanced?

The two got back together like this.

Hu Tiehua said that he had inquired about it, and in a few days, another group of caravans would return from sea.According to the residents of Baiyun City, one of the fleets was going to Persia, and they should bring back Persian wine and exchange it with people from other fleets at the market.

Ye Weixing: "Can't you buy it with money?"

Hu Tiehua clicked his tongue and said: "Probably not, I heard people say that the boss of this fleet likes to collect strange things, so it is quite difficult to exchange wine from him."

Ye Weixing: "Then what have you thought about exchanging with him?"

Hu Tiehua said: "Not yet, I plan to go to Lao Chu's boat for the next two days."

Compared to the few of them, Ye Weixing was not very interested in the fine Persian wine that the residents of Baiyun City passed on from mouth to mouth.

But now Ye Gucheng doesn't look for her during the day, and she has nothing to do when she stays in the city lord's mansion. When they woke up and ran out, she naturally went out with them.

This season of Feixian Island can be said to be the busiest time of the year. There are new fleets docking at the pier every day, the restaurants and teahouses are overcrowded, and it is hard to find a room in the inns in the city.

The streets are full of people selling all kinds of Western gadgets, and the scene is not much different from the various souvenir markets hundreds of years later.

Ye Weixing and the others are Ye Gucheng's guests, so naturally they don't have to worry about finding a place to eat and drink.

But if you want Ye Weixing to say it, the cooks in all the restaurants in this city are inferior to those in the Baiyun City Lord's Mansion, so when eating and drinking during the day, she is always in a slump.

And at night, the city is even more lively, and the bad friends go to enjoy the moon and listen to the music, but she has to go back to be a training partner.

Contrary to the hustle and bustle outside, Ye Gucheng's City Lord's Mansion is always deserted.

Now that the Chinese New Year is approaching, this contrast is even more obvious.

After the two of them played that night, Ye Weixing casually asked why.

Just as Ye Gucheng put away his sword, he was startled instinctively when he heard this question, and then said softly: "Father was in poor health before, so the house shouldn't make too much noise."

Speaking of his father who had just passed away, this mature and prudent young man had a rare sense of "humanity" in the mundane world.

Just like his swordsmanship.

Ye Weixing didn't expect that he would poke someone's scar with a casual sentence, and he was embarrassed for a while.

But he didn't care too much. Seeing that she was silent, he took the initiative to open up the topic.

He said: "I have finished handling the chores in the city."

"Eh?" Ye Weixing reacted instantly, "Then start practicing during the day tomorrow?"

"En." After responding, he turned around and left the Sword Washing Pond as usual.

Ye Weixing stood where he was, thought for a moment, and left with his sword in hand.

For more than a month after that, there were no major disturbances in the lives of the few of them.

If I have to say it, it is probably a happy New Year's Eve with a moon and wine.

In the first lunar month, Feixian Island is still very lively, even worthy of Jiangnan.

Coupled with this comfortable scenery and climate, in the last two months, when the few people were about to leave, Hu Tiehua was still at the bow of the boat and shouted three times to the sky, which was really reluctant.

Ji Bingyan kicked him to get him out of the way, and then lay down herself.

Chu Liuxiang and Yidianhong stood at the stern watching the scene, while shaking their heads and looking away.

In the wind by the pier, Ye Weixing was still saying goodbye to her cheap brother.

To be precise, Ye Gucheng is paying Ye Weixing the training fee for these two months.

Ye Gucheng handed over the silver ticket and said, "You can count it again."

Ye Weixing waved his hand: "No, I trust you."

How could the majestic Baiyun City Lord renege on his debt?

In this way, Ye Gucheng was not entangled in this issue.

He looked at the ship not far away with dim eyes, as if he still had a lot to say, but when he got to his lips, he finally turned into a sentence of "Bon voyage".

Ye Weixing nodded, and just about to turn around, he raised his hand and pressed his shoulder as if remembering something.

Ye Gucheng: "??"

She coughed and said: "Although I think my sword is worth 1 taels of gold, you should do less of such prodigal things in the future. I am afraid that you will destroy Baiyun City sooner or later! Look at you, I have lived a life of rich clothes and fine food since I was a child, if I do something stupid after being defeated, it will not be very good."

Ye Gucheng: "..."

She continued: "Forget it, anyway, I took so much money from you. If you really have no money in the future, you should come to Hangzhou to find me. Don't be stupid because you don't have money, such as rebelling or something."

... Rebellion is really wrong! ! !
