Three Masters' Sword

The moon is in the middle of the sky, and it is reflected on the water of Xiaoxiao Lake. There is a circle in the sky and a circle in the water.The circle in the sky was covered by dark clouds, and it passed through the cloudy and sunny circle in a moment; the circle in the water was wrinkled by the spring water, and it was broken into thousands of stars for a while, and then it was broken and reunited in a hurry.There is the sound of rustling leaves all around, accompanied by the chirping of katydids in the near summer, with the night wind rising for a while, but silently hidden with the sound of footsteps, like a pair of peeping eyes in the dark night.

Wang Qiao folded a bamboo stick, followed the boatman's path, and walked slowly towards the lake.The clear light cast the shadow of the tree, cutting out a slender figure with a long and handsome body, leaning on the tree, looking at the moonlight on the lake.Hearing the sound of Wang Qiao's footsteps, he didn't turn his head, but said quietly: "The night is getting dark, and the third young master is still not resting?"

Wang Qiao snorted softly from his nasal cavity, and sat down on a nearby feldspar that was smoothed by water. The water lapped on the shore with a gurgling sound and wiped the soles of his feet.He also looked at the rippling water in front of him, sparkling like strings, as if a huge water silk spread from under his feet, stretching to the end of the night.Said: "Didn't you not sleep?"

Yu Yuqing said: "I'll watch the night." He looked at the quiet moonlight, but his mood was in a mess and it was hard to calm down. It was the moment when he didn't want to face Wang Qiao the most, so he said coldly, "I advise you, my lord. It's better to rest as soon as possible, rushing to die tomorrow will also require strength."

Wang Qiao smiled wryly and said, "How could it be so dangerous? I escaped death, and finally found some clues. No matter it is a dragon's lake or a tiger's lair, I have to go to Guichan Mountain. It's not all out of good intentions."

Yu Yuqing said: "Mei Jiu, Bei Yanzhou and others are cult members. Raising their hands to kill people seems to be commonplace, and they don't care at all. Most of what happened to them now is their own fault. If you go with them, if you can't guarantee that they will turn back in battle, then you How do you protect yourself? They murder people in front of you, should you save them, or not?"

Wang Qiao knew that what he said was the truth, but if he wanted to find out the truth about the tragic family disaster caused by the continuous appearance of Feng Wen, how could he stop here?He sighed and said: "In this world, there are no people who are all good or all evil. I treat people with sincerity, and I hope they will treat me with sincerity. When you encounter something you can't avoid, don't violate your heart and do your best. That's it."

But Yu Yuqing said: "In my opinion, you might as well go directly to Wudang to find that Master Beiming. The master has already promised you to take you as a disciple at the request of your father; at this time, we must preserve the remaining veins of the Jinling Wang family." , is sparing no effort to search for you. You are under the shadow of Wudang sect, and no one dares to trouble you again; these things can naturally be investigated slowly."

Wang Qiao said: "That's true. It's just that I can't just ignore it. It's just this broken temper, you know." He shook his head, "Besides, who knows that Master Beiming is not another Wang Yehai The prestige of 'Luling Yelao' and the status of the Twelve Families are not so scheming and chivalrous. The word chivalry is not worth a secret book without words. That Wangui Toad Saint seems to be the same as the owner of the golden relic Some origins, maybe we can find out the truth of the word 'phoenix'. The so-called unwinding of the bell requires the person who tied it. Since it is suitable for me, then I will untie it from the source."

After he said that, he looked up, but the figure had already turned behind the tree, he seemed to suppress his trembling voice, and said in a low voice: "You don't need to tell me about such things."

Wang Qiao picked up the stones, threw them into the lake, and said with a slight smile, "I didn't tell anyone, I just talked to myself. I just watched the moonlight so beautifully that I couldn't sleep, so I got up and sorted out my thoughts."

This was said before, even Wang Qiao himself did not believe it.Where does he have trouble falling asleep?People in his family often say that he has a big heart, even if the backyard is on fire, he can lie down in the front hall.At that time, he really had nothing to worry about, but now he can't be so free and easy.The two quietly separated a foot of lake waves, each thinking about their own concerns.Yu Yuqing's inner breath is deep now, his breath is extremely long, his figure blends with the trees by the lake, Wang Qiao was afraid that he would have left several times, presumably it is not difficult for a master like him to leave quietly.But when he threw a stone into the lake again, when he was about to smash the moon shadow in the water, suddenly a piece of gravel flew from the side, knocking the stone he threw into the air.The technique is extremely delicate, when the two stones touch each other, they go their separate ways, avoiding the reflection of the bright moon, and throw a pile of water to the two sides to float out, not stopping for a long time.

He said calmly: "It's a rare reunion mirror. Although it's a phantom, it's a pity to break it."

Wang Qiao was overjoyed, and said with a smile: "The moon is indestructible. This unreasonable disaster can cause some twists and turns and ripples, but it can't change its true appearance." He used a bamboo stick to divert the water, and said, " You see, the shattered moonlight will eventually gather together, and the disturbed reflection will finally be fully reflected. If the heart is stronger than gold, the heaven and the earth will meet each other."

Yu Yuqing said softly: "That's because your heart is broad and tough, and you are never limited to one day and one night, one round and one short. But if there are two fish, looking at the moon in the water, thinking about the moon in the sea. A confidant, if you are close to the end of the world, to talk about the pain of lovesickness, but you shattered that moon shadow, to them, it is nothing less than a world-shaking, even the only thought is gone, how sad should they be?"

Wang Qiao's heart ached from what he said, and he couldn't bear to lie with him any longer, and blurted out, "Ah Ching!" With a thought in his mind, he wished he could stretch out his hand and pull him into his arms. My heart spread, stirred my intestines and abdomen, and stuck to my throat, as if it was swollen, and I couldn't utter a word.But he only stretched his hand halfway, but he heard the person behind the tree whisper: "... Who are you calling? I'm not..." But he couldn't continue, the words left a bitter end, and he couldn't continue after sobbing up.

Wang Qiao's hand was hanging in mid-air, his heart seemed to be tightly clenched. There was pain and joy at the same time. Suffering is suffering and the opposite will not meet, and joy is joy. Yu Qing was stunned, and said to herself: "He can't see me, there must be other reasons." Think about it, think about it, although this parting is only a few days, it seems that there have been many life and death partings in the middle, and the previous arrangement Clean worries surged out, only to feel that the eyes were suddenly sore, and the mist condensed on the eyelashes.He hastily turned his head to wipe it, worried in his heart, he couldn't help feeling annoyed after the ups and downs, and said deliberately: "I didn't call anyone. In the water moon, a small blue fish just jumped up, did you see it?" ?”

Of course Yu Yuqing understood what he meant, but now that he had become like this, he didn't even dare to look at himself more, how could he dare to meet third brother?It would be fine if others recognized him, but being recognized by Wang Qiao made him restless, and he couldn't explain why.He knew that his appearance had completely changed, his voice was hoarse, his hair was withered, and he seemed to have aged decades suddenly. How could anyone still recognize him?Even if he stood in front of others and said frankly that he was Yu Yuqing, no one would believe him.But Wang Qiao seemed to recognize it without asking a word. He was joyful and fearful, but he was also afraid that he was being sentimental and trying to catch the moon in the water;

"There are too many small blue fishes in the world... What's so special about a small fish?"

Wang Qiao said: "This one is different. It belongs to my family. When I saw him, it was as if I had returned home. I have to stop him and stop wandering away. Otherwise, where can I go to find him alone?"

Yu Yuqing sighed leisurely: "The fish all look similar, how do you know it is the one raised by your family? Even if it is raised by your family, if it... has its scales scraped off and its fin tail cut off, how can you recognize it? out?"

As soon as he said this, Wang Qiao only felt a buzzing sound on the top of his head, and his heart felt as if he had been struck by an axe. He knew that he must have been seriously injured and tortured, so he couldn't care about anything else, so he stepped over and pulled him. He couldn't hold back his concern anymore: "Are you injured? Where is the injury? Is it serious?" Yu Yuqing didn't dare to be caught by him. Unable to stay by his side any longer, he turned around and left.He knew that if he used excellent lightness kung fu, he would be able to step on the water and reach the other side of the lake with just a sway; but he didn't know why, as if he couldn't exert all his strength, and he didn't want to go far away quickly, instead he walked around behind him and walked towards the forest. Walking in the depths, it seems as if there is a trace of thought, waiting for him to catch up.

But as usual, Wang Qiao would definitely not be able to catch up with him.But since that Feng Wen was passed on to him, even though he couldn't take it for granted, it seemed that there was a subtle change that gradually changed.Yu Yuqing circled around him, bringing up a gust of wind, as if entangled with his fingertips, pulling a thread to point out the direction; Wang Qiao pulled his hand, and actually grabbed his hand, Yu Yuqing was shocked and withdrew his hand hastily Moving forward, the glove on that hand was taken away by Wang Qiao.This turn of events was beyond the two people's expectation, the moonlight reflected on the withered hand that took off the glove, it looked white and miserable, especially terrifying.It was not the first time Wang Qiao had seen his hands, but on weekdays, even if he used his palms to fight against the enemy and exercise his skills, he would quickly put them on afterwards.At this moment, such an unsightly and ugly appearance was exposed in front of his eyes. He was so shocked that he was almost stunned. He wished he could find a crack in the ground to get in, hid his hands in his sleeves, and turned away in a panic.Wang Qiao reacted faster than him, pulled his arm and was suddenly thrown away, and without hesitation, he opened his arms and hugged him from behind.

As soon as the body is touched, it is full of warmth in the embrace, and the familiar breath is wrapped in longing, and it is like a flood that has opened the gate, pouring down uncontrollably.Wang Qiao only felt his nose sore, and tears and snot all fell on his shoulders. There was only one voice rumbling in his heart: it was him, it was him, and he was determined not to be wrong.How could I have doubted it?Why didn't I hug him earlier?Both bodies were trembling, and a numb, itchy commotion made a place along the place where the fingertips touched.He couldn't help but murmured: "Ah Qing! It's all my fault, please don't hide from me..." Yu Yuqing's long eyelashes rolled down, his eyes were blurred, and he said in a low voice: "Why can you recognize me? Come out? I... I don't even recognize myself?"

Wang Qiao was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer; it could be seen from his physical skills and martial arts, as well as from his words and actions.There are so many, the details are like a platter, not enough for outsiders to understand, but the bits and pieces gather together to form a tower.There are sounds of lonely insects all around, only two fiery hearts are beating together.He wanted to say: "You will know when you have someone you like." But he couldn't say it, he just hugged the person in his arms tighter.Yu Yuqing's body trembled slightly, and he felt Wang Qiao's scalding breath near his ear, which made him turn red from the earlobes to his neck. , trying to break free from his embrace, said: "...you let go of me. I... I have become like this person, ghost and ghost, my body is very dirty..." But Wang Qiao sniffed Seeing the smell on his body, he gradually felt that his mind was in chaos. Not only did he not relax his strength, but his palm seemed to be pulled by a strange force, unknowingly protruding towards his heart.

Yu Yuqing's heart had been seriously injured, and now the extremely strange fleshy Ganoderma lucidum grows there, not to mention that Wang Qiao came across it, when he washed and changed his clothes, he didn't even dare to take a second look.At this moment, it feels like Wang Qiao's palm is about to touch there, and what's even weirder is that the long roots of the monster in the heart are squirming, as if to cater to it.He was terrified in his heart, he didn't care too much, his arms trembled suddenly, and he broke away from Wang Qiao's embrace.Wang Qiao was in a daze, and was defenseless for a moment in the trance. He stepped back a few steps, slipped on the mossy stone, and fell into the lake with his feet upside down with an ah yo.

Fortunately, because of the high tide at night, there are tidal flats all over the shore. After falling down, the water below is not deep, but half of my body is wet.Yu Yuqing saw that she accidentally threw him into the water, fearing that he would drown, she hurried to pull him, and blurted out, "Third brother, are you alright?"

Wang Qiao was soaked in cold water, choked on it, his body became hot and itchy, and his mind suddenly cleared up. He couldn't help feeling ashamed, thinking Wang Qiao, Wang Qiao, what do you want to do?It's so easy to see that Ah Qing is safe and sound, could it be that he gets carried away with complacency?Are the promises and wishes you made yourself worthless?

Ever since he understood his own intentions, he has drawn boundaries by himself, and he has never exceeded the rules in his speech and behavior. When the two get along, they are still as close as brothers.If he hadn't been unable to think of a way that would not hurt the brotherhood for many years, and would not be ashamed of this heartfelt song, he would not have wanted to become a monk in despair.At this time, it has been a long time since we parted, and the yearning is getting deeper and deeper. I really don't say anything, but I am worried and anxious in my heart, and I just can't help myself.Yu Yuqing stretched out his hand to help him, but he was still guilty, so he dared not touch him, and stretched out his arms around him, barely standing up from the water.Yu Yuqing stood there empty-handed. He had never been treated so coldly by the third brother in his life. He was a little embarrassed for a while, feeling sore in his heart, and said in a low voice: "I...does my appearance scare you? Are you alive? Am I mad?"

Wang Qiao saw him standing in the reflection of the broken moon, with his skirts folded open, like a fairy in the water, he sighed, reached out to hold his withered and cold hands, hugged him in his arms, and said, "I I thought my thoughts had been seen through by you long ago, as long as you don't care, there is nothing to say. But in fact, you don't understand how I like you at all, do you? "

Yu Yuqing smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid that if you see my face and body, you won't like me anymore."

"When you take a step, your left foot buckles a little bit." Wang Qiao said suddenly in a low voice, "The edge of the right shoe will be more worn. When you hesitate, your middle finger and ring finger will twist together unconsciously. Don't you Wear old clothes worn by other people, and never change clothes in front of outsiders, even if there is a partition in the room. You are brave and aggressive, but no matter how critical the situation is, you must first save the woman and then save the man. Before you raise your chopsticks I must drink a small glass of water..." He continued without any hesitation, and Yu Yuqing was dumbfounded. He had never thought about many details, not to mention that he knew that Wang Qiao was afraid of losing his mind. I don’t remember what I ate yesterday, what I drank today, how much gold and silver money I have left on my body, I never worry about it, but I can divide his affairs into pieces and remember them all clearly, my heart is sore, and It's sweet annoyance, I can't say a warm current surged into my heart, I raised my hand unconsciously, covered his mouth in a panic and said: "...Needless to say! You don't need to say anything..." The other hand slowly Withdrawing his palm slowly, he took off the mask on his face.

The originally handsome and unrivaled face was now cut into two parts from the center, the muscles and the dead wood texture are intertwined, and there is no obvious dividing line, and in some places the wood grain is just like , and in some places, the tendons are turned up; making the intact part even more treacherous.It really looked half human, half ghostly.Although Yu Yuqing took off his mask at this time, he caught a glimpse of his own reflection in the water, and his heart felt sad. He secretly thought that it was not a big deal for others to see it, but it would scare a few people away, so what?He didn't care about it either.But if the third brother saw it, what would the third brother think of him in the future?He naturally knew that Wang Qiao would not really hate him, but he was even more afraid that Wang Qiao would look at him with sympathy or regret, and treat him as a wronged child, which would make him more uncomfortable than hating him or hating him. .

He bit his lips, trying not to shed tears, but he didn't dare to raise his eyes to meet Wang Qiao's gaze, and forcibly endured the tears swirling in his eyes.Unexpectedly, Wang Qiao couldn't help laughing and said: "Why does it seem like I bullied you?" His mouth was pressed by Yu Yuqing's palm, his words were buzzing, and a stream of warm air spewed out of his palm, making it itchy.Yu Yuqing raised his eyes in surprise, and the teardrops couldn't help but fall down, embedded between the textures of his face, unable to flow down.Wang Qiao wiped it off for him, and said softly, "It's all right, why are you crying?"

Yu Yuqing smiled wryly, wiped away tears indiscriminately, turned his face away, and said, "Only you can say that you are 'good' when you see such a scene."

Wang Qiao said: "Both of our lives were picked up. I didn't dare to say that I was alive a few days ago. Now that I can see you again, it is already too good. How dare I ask for too much?"

Seeing that he didn't care, Yu Yuqing became angry for some reason, and said angrily, "Whether I'm good-looking or ugly, have you never cared?"

Wang Qiao was stunned for a while, not knowing why he was angry, and said: "Of course you look good, so why do I have to tell you?" In his opinion, Ah Qing looks good, it is so natural that it is annoying, just like you ask Is the moon beautiful, is that worth saying over and over again?Doesn't the moon itself know it?

Yu Yuqing was not willing to believe it, he only thought that what he said was a perfunctory lie that didn't sound very nice, so he pushed him hard in anger, threw him back into the water again, and threw him over with the water waves.Wang Qiao threw himself up, laughing and playing with him.Although the two have just undergone tremendous changes, they still cannot change their youthful minds. Under the moonlight, it seems that there is no third person in the world.Those uninvited sorrows and troubles, and the wheel of destiny imposed on the body, seem to be like dark clouds covering the moon, hovering around the surroundings, but they are swept away by the clear light, not daring to disturb the moment.

The two rolled into a ball, stirring up waves, and the circles and gaps were filled, and the lovesickness of those fishes could not be cared about.Wang Qiao turned over and grabbed his wrist, and pressed him under him. They laughed and laughed at each other enough, their chests heaved and bumped into each other, gradually only the sound of breathing could be heard.The moonlight shrouded the two of them, shining the light color of glass in the eyes, and many words that were hard to utter were swaying in them.Yu Yuqing saw that he was only frowning and looking at himself, and looked away slightly, his withered long hair scattered with the undulating fine waves, and mixed with the duckweed in the water.He covered his face with his hands, and begged in a low voice, "Don't look at it..."

Wang Qiao grabbed his hand and said anxiously: "What? Did you touch something? It still hurts a lot?"

But Yu Yuqing was taken aback by his question, and said, "What hurts so much?"

Wang Qiao said: "How can this not hurt? It hurts even when I look at it. Don't touch it casually..."

From the perspective of others and even himself, this appearance is ugly and weird, appalling, it is a cult technique, and its energy goes out of control; it is half human, half ghost, half dead, half alive, so even he himself feels that pain is not a problem at all. For this reason, I worried and feared much more than the pain, and in the end I even forgot whether it was painful or not.At this time when Wang Qiao asked, he couldn't answer whether he felt no pain at all, or had already put the pain behind him, and shook his head blankly, "...I don't know."

Wang Qiao yelled at him angrily: "I don't know if it hurts or not. Are you stupid? Why don't you let me see it?" He was so concerned that it seemed to hurt more than the injury on himself, and he felt like a knife was twisting his heart. , although it won't make him better if I look at it myself, but when people are in love, it is inevitable that they will not care about the reasons for doing things.Yu Yuqing was held down by him, but he didn't dare to throw him out again, he just felt that he was looking at him, and his heart was dry, and there was something in the acupuncture points of the strange scriptures, which wanted to move alone, and the torture made him really painful. Wanting to run away quickly, he said: "You are the fool!" He put the mask he took off earlier on his face with his backhand, and leaned forward; Wang Qiao couldn't help but pause when his sight was blocked by the fox-face mask; Feeling the warm body, covered with the light of night water, covered with the cool moonlight, suddenly slipped into the bosom, the breath seemed to be attached to a very close place, through a pair of half-wet and half-dry pulp paper, toward the face light touch.

"...Ah Qing...?" He called out in a low voice, his clear eyeballs looked like a full moon in his vision, and his eyelids closed as if they were full and full.When he noticed the difference, he lifted his mask abruptly, only to see the lake in front of him, the lake shining, and the mountain wind blowing through the wet and cold sleeves, but the person in his arms disappeared.

There was only a shimmering fragment of a full moon, which seemed to reflect the thoughts of the two of them at this time, swaying around them, parting and reuniting, sticky and turbulent.
