After staying in Wuzheng Villa for seven days, the master and apprentice packed up their bags and prepared to go to Jiangnan.

Yuan Dongyuan knew that Yan Liushuang was here to make knives for the two apprentices, he was very grateful, and specially prepared three thousand-mile horses for them.

Although Yan Liushuang didn't like to owe favors, she thought that Yuan Dongyuan's actions were probably for his son's sake, so she didn't refuse.

She earnestly thanked the original owner who had been immersed in calligraphy and painting all year round and did not care about martial arts.

But the other party waved at her, and said with a sad expression: "Miss Yan puts so much effort into teaching Suiyun, I should be the one to thank."

Yan Liushuang did put a lot of thought into these two apprentices, but she felt that her motives were not pure enough, so facing Yuan Dongyuan's solemn confession, she was a little embarrassed: "You are serious."

Yuan Dongyuan sighed and said: "Miss Yan has never seen the child when he just lost his eyesight. door."

"He has been smart since he was a child, and he can read "Yi" at the age of three, but after being ill for a while, he can no longer read books, and his temper is not as lively as before. I am willing to get close. But when he came back this time, he talked a lot more, and he looked more energetic, this is the credit of Miss Yan."

Yan Liushuang was surprised when he heard what he said, but after thinking about it, a four-year-old child lost his sight directly due to an illness, and no one could take this kind of thing lightly.

She thought for a while, and comforted Yuan Dongyuan and said, "I see that he doesn't care much about his eyes now, and he should have recovered. This is a good thing, and his sword practice is as good as his senior brother."

In fact, purely in terms of martial arts talent, Yuan Suiyun is probably higher than Wuhua, and his lightness kung fu is more than one grade better than Wuhua.But when it comes to his comprehension in sword techniques, Wuhua is still better.

So one ebbs and another grows, and the two senior brothers have been unable to distinguish between superior and inferior.

Yan Liushuang was quite satisfied with the results of this teaching, she felt that at this rate, it should not be a problem for the two of them to win the jellyfish Yin Ji in five years.

By that time, she will be able to return to the underworld to go to work after she has completed her career.

As for the possible failures that the ghost messenger once reminded, she doesn't think there is any need to worry about it, because the two of them are really good and sensible.

It is not Yan Liushuang's fault to have this illusion, it is because Wuhua and Yuan Suiyun are too good at putting on airs, and they are not only putting on airs to her, but also to other people.

Not to mention anything else, just talking about Wuzheng Villa, without exception, they feel that their young master is now humble, courteous, gentle and kind, and the young master's bald senior brother is also the same.So much so that when they left Taiyuan, there were still a bunch of little maids waving handkerchiefs at the gate of the village reluctantly.

Yan Liushuang was riding on the horse watching this scene, and couldn't hold back her click: "I think in a few years, these little girls will have to throw their handkerchiefs at you two."

Wu Hua immediately waved her hand: "Master, please stop making fun of us. It is you that they are most reluctant to part with. You don't even know what they say about you in private."

Yan Liushuang raised her eyebrows: "Oh? How did you say it?"

Wuhua squeezed her throat and said: "I used to think that the young master's master was an old senior with a sense of immortality, but he turned out to be so young and so beautiful...I really wish I could pass by her courtyard gate every day and look at her twice more." Eye!"

His appearance was originally feminine, and he was pretty like a girl, so when he imitated the tone of the cardamom girls, he didn't violate the tone at all, Yan Liushuang couldn't help laughing.

Seeing her eyes narrowed when she smiled, Wuhua went on to learn: "And Miss Yan is so good at martial arts, but she doesn't have any airs!"

Yan Liushuang: "Okay, okay, you should stop talking like that, people will misunderstand that you are a little nun who sneaked out of a nunnery and eloped with someone later."

"Little nun" Wuhua: "..."

"Elopement partner" Yuan Suiyun: "..."

The three master and apprentice chatted all the way to Jiangnan.

But most of the time, Yuan Suiyun is the one who speaks the least.

He always listened quietly to Wu Hua trying to make their master happy in various ways, and then listened to Yan Liushuang's laughter and imagined her appearance at the moment.

But no matter how he imagined, he couldn't outline a clear smiling face in the darkness.

This upset him so much that he lost the interest in sarcasm and bickering with Wu Hua.

And this distraction reached its peak when they arrived at Tiger Hill in Gusu.

He followed Yan Liushuang into Yongcui Villa as he did six years ago, and heard her and Li Guanyu happily exchanging greetings, but before hearing a few words, he couldn't help frowning.

Why does Li Guanyu talk so much nonsense?he thinks.

In fact, Li Guanyu didn't talk much, he just asked Yan Liushuang a few words about his recent situation, after all, Yan Liushuang hadn't appeared in the world for five years.

Yan Liushuang didn't hide anything either, and after explaining briefly to him, she brought up the topic of her borrowing a furnace to forge a knife.

She originally thought that according to Li Guanyu's personality, she would immediately agree and take her directly to the sword furnace.

But when Li Guanyu heard the words, his expression was a little embarrassed. He sighed and explained to her: "It would be great if Miss Yan came a few days earlier. I just lent it to a friend who wants to make a sword yesterday. , he found a piece of extremely rare cold iron, and said that he must not delay it."

Yan Liushuang is not an unreasonable person, after hearing what he said, she immediately expressed that she was not in a hurry.

"It won't be too late for me to use it after that friend of Zhuangzhu Li finished casting the sword," she said.

"Thank you, Miss Yan, for your understanding." Li Guanyu was still a little sorry, and continued after a pause, "Last time, Miss Yan had important things to do, so she couldn't stay in Gusu for a few more days, this time she has to wait for the sword casting furnace. , why not just stay in Yongcui Villa?"

Yan Liushuang wanted to refuse, but she thought it would be inconvenient for her to instruct her apprentices to practice knives at the inn, so she agreed, but she insisted on paying the rent just like when she borrowed Xuejiazhuang to accept apprentices.

Li Guanyu: "..."

If you can't beat her, you can only accept it.

After the three masters and apprentices stayed in Yongcui Villa, Yan Liushuang wanted to see how they were doing recently, so she untied the intestine piercing knife for them, and asked them to take turns using this knife to fight her, and said, "I can't do it for now. Forging knives, you just make do with it."

Both Wuhua and Yuan Suiyun were shocked: "Come on, make it?"

"That's right." She nodded, "Because this knife is not a good knife, it was just forged for me by my bandit master."

"But it's clearly..." The two of them couldn't believe it at all, after all, every time Yan Liushuang pulled out this knife in Mobei, they could feel the murderous aura above.

"You think it's scary because it's in my hands." Yan Liushuang said, "You can try it if you don't believe me."

These words hit the two of them hard. Fortunately, the two of them have been hit a lot in the past five years, so they calmed down after a while.

As before, Wu Hua, the senior brother, goes first.

Yan Liushuang made a gesture of invitation to him, squinted her eyes and said, "Let's get started."

Wuhua nodded, took a deep breath and pulled out the pitch-black intestine piercing knife.

This was the first time he used a real knife to fight Yan Liushuang. Apart from being nervous, there was actually an unprecedented excitement, even though he knew that he was not her opponent at all.

The black long knife is much heavier than the ice skates in the hand, and there is a whistling wind when you sweep it a little.

Like any other time in the past, Wuhua couldn't find where her weakness was, so she could only swing the knife at her instinctively.

When the knife was swung out, he saw the corners of her lips curled up.

However, she only moved the corners of her lips, and she didn't intend to dodge until the tip of the knife was about to cut on the tip of her nose.

Wuhua opened her eyes wide in surprise.

On the one hand, he knew that she would never be unable to hide, but on the other hand, he subconsciously wanted to move away by two inches.

At this moment, she finally raised her hand to pinch the blade he had cut over.

"It's too slow." She said, "But you are still making some progress. You are very suitable for learning knives."

"It's a pity that I didn't study very well." He sighed, "I don't think I may be able to survive under Master's hands in my life."

"That's not the case. According to your talent, as long as you don't let it go to waste, if you practice hard, it will be no problem to take me three swords in the future." Yan Liushuang said sincerely.

Wuhua: "..."

To be honest, I was not comforted at all, okay?

He gave the knife to Yuan Suiyun: "Instead of you."

Yuan Suiyun took it in silence, and then unconsciously squeezed the handle of the knife tightly.

Yan Liushuang only thought that he was nervous, and said to him, "It's fine to cut it like before."

There was a distance of two feet between them, but thanks to the midsummer evening wind, Yuan Suiyun could still smell the faint aroma of acacia on her body.

After a while, he lowered his head slightly and said, "Okay."

Yuan Suiyun's understanding of saber techniques is not as good as Wuhua's, but he is better than his roots, so his attack speed is quite fast.

This knife of his is faster than Wu Hua's knife just now.

But the speed difference between the two of them was completely meaningless in front of Yan Liushuang, who was much faster than both of them, Yan Liushuang still didn't dodge or dodge, and went straight to meet the knife.

And the knife's momentum was still cut off at the last moment just like before.

The only difference is that Yan Liushuang is frowning at this moment: "What's the matter with you?"

Yuan Suiyun didn't understand why she said that, obviously his knife was the fastest he could do.

After a while, he heard her sigh.

He was confused: "Master?"

Yan Liushuang took a step closer, took back the knife in his hand, and said: "Your heart is not on the knife, the knife just now looked fast, but the actual threat was not half that of Wuhua's knife, so I ask you what's the matter .”

Yuan Suiyun opened his mouth, squeezed his hand holding the knife just now, but he still didn't say anything.

Seeing him like this, Yan Liushuang didn't force it, just patted him on the shoulder and said: "If you have any troubles, you can tell me, but don't be like just now when you don't care about the knife."

When she said this, there happened to be a wind, which blew up a lock of her scattered forehead hair, and the ends of the hair hit his face and forehead, and finally scratched his eyes that had been blind for many years.

The taste was not good, or rather astringent, which made him close his eyes instinctively.

But no matter how many times he closed his eyes, when he opened them again, there was only darkness.

For a long time, he felt that he had adapted and got used to this darkness.

But at this moment, he realized that it was nothing but self-deception.

……

Forging a sword with cold iron is a big project, and Li Guanyu's friend can't handle it in a short time.

Yan Liushuang knew that if she made a small mistake, all previous efforts would be wasted, so she didn't urge them at all, and asked them to relax and take their time, so they didn't need to worry because she was waiting in line to use the sword casting furnace.

It just so happened that she could also take this opportunity to go shopping in Gusu City to see if she could buy some good materials for casting knives.

The two apprentices wanted to follow, but she refused: "You two should practice hard, otherwise I forged a knife for you, and I'm afraid I will be interrupted."

The two had no way to refute, so they could only stay in Yongcui Villa and concentrate on practicing swords.

Yuan Suiyun was reprimanded by her before, but now he practiced more seriously than when he was in Mobei, even if she was not around, he seldom paid attention to Wuhua's provocation.

Wu Hua was amazed, did this kid change his sex?

But seeing that he practiced so desperately, as if he must surpass himself, Wu Hua couldn't help but become more serious.

So the two of them competed with each other in Yongcui Villa.

And Yan Liushuang ran into the city for seven or eight days, but couldn't find the materials he wanted.

Just when she was wondering if she could ask Li Guanyu about this, she saw a familiar figure flashing past the city gate.

There was also a girl's scream that followed, which sounded like she was greatly frightened.

She hurriedly pushed aside the crowd, only to see a young girl in green huddling her body to hide from a man in a scarlet brocade robe, yelling "Don't come over!"

And that man kept leaning forward, laughing and yelling, "Play with me! Play with me!"

When Yan Liushuang squeezed to the front of the crowd, she finally saw the man's face clearly.

It's actually Xue Yiren's younger brother Xue Xiaoren? !

But he doesn't seem quite right...?

"Why don't you play with me?" Xue Xiaoren yelled again as he tugged on the sleeve of the girl in Tsing Yi.

"I don't know you at all!" The girl was about to cry, "Stay away from me, you lunatic!"

"I'm not a lunatic! I'm not a lunatic!" Xue Xiaoren's voice suddenly rose.

Seeing this, Yan Liushuang stopped thinking about what was going on, and stepped forward to restrain him.

Xue Xiaoren is probably really crazy, not to mention the tattered clothes, and her hair is messed up like a bird's nest, which is quite different from what she saw when she first came to this world, and after being restrained by her, she still struggled I want to grab the sleeve of that girl in Tsing Yi.

The girl managed to get away, of course she refused to continue to entangle with this lunatic, she thanked Yan Liushuang and ran away quickly.

As soon as she ran away, most of the spectators dispersed.

And Yan Liushuang pressed Xue Xiaoren who was still trying to break free from her, frowned and tried to ask him: "Where's your brother?"

Xue Xiaoren didn't seem to be able to hear her, and only focused on grabbing her hand. Later, when he found that he couldn't grab her hand, he lowered his head and bit it.

His bite was not light, and her hand was bleeding out from the bite, which made her very angry.

After taking a deep breath, she raised her hand and touched his acupoints to make him unable to move, and then returned to Tiger Hill with his collar.

When the servants of Yongcui Villa saw that she brought a man back, they were all startled.

Wu Hua recognized that it was Xue Xiaoren, and was very surprised: "What happened to Second Master Xue?"

Yan Liushuang: "It should be crazy."

Wuhua: "...huh?"

On the other hand, those servants who were frightened before, when they heard the name Xue Erye, seemed to think of something, and asked hesitantly: "Could this be the second master of Xuejiazhuang in Songjiang Mansion?"

Yan Liushuang nodded: "Yes, it's him, what's wrong?"

The servant replied: "He seemed to have lost his mind because of his sword practice before. It is said that people from Xuejiazhuang have been looking for him for two years but have not found him. I didn't expect Miss Yan to run into him."

When Yan Liushuang heard this, she also thought it was a coincidence. After thinking about it, she decided to ask Li Guanyu to send someone to notify Xue Yiren.

After Li Guanyu found out, he agreed without saying a word, and sent someone to Xuejiazhuang, Songjiang Prefecture that night.

But he reminded her: "It is very likely that Xue Yiren is not at home. I heard that he has invited a swordsman from the Hainan faction to a duel in Jiangcheng at the end of this month."

Yan Liushuang: "..."

Li Guanyu said again: "If he's not here, it's okay to let his younger brother live in Yongcui Villa first. I think his martial arts are still there, so if he just runs around in the city like this, he might bump into others."

Yan Liushuang thought to herself, she was still holding on to the little girl's sleeve.

For the present plan, the only way is to let Xue Xiaoren stay here first.

During dinner that night, she went to untie his acupoints, trying to persuade him to have a good meal first, but unexpectedly he bit her again.

This bite was heavier than before, and it happened to bite on the previous wound, making her scream out in pain.

And her cry naturally alarmed Wuhuayuan Suiyun who was serving her food and vegetables.

The two put down the things in their hands at the same time and came over, "What's wrong?!"

Wuhua saw the bleeding wound on her hand at a glance, and was furious: "He bit you?!"

Yan Liushuang sighed and said, "Forget it, he's completely out of his mind now, so don't bother with him."

Wuhua wanted to say that it couldn't be counted that way, but before she could say anything, Yuan Suiyun next to her punched Xue Xiaoren in the face.

He pursed his lips tightly, beat Xue Xiaoren so that he couldn't sit still, and fell to the ground.

Xue Xiaoren burst into tears immediately, crying and yelling: "You! You bully me! I want to tell my elder brother!"

Yan Liushuang: "..." You fucking know your elder brother by now.

And Yuan Suiyun paused every word with a sullen face: "Even if your elder brother is here, he wouldn't dare to do anything to me."

Xue Xiaoren was already crying with tears all over his face, and he was still shouting: "I want... I want my elder brother to teach you a lesson!"

Yuan Suiyun snorted coldly and ignored him.

To be honest, it was the first time Yan Liushuang saw this apprentice showing such an expression.

From her point of view, Yuan Suiyun has always been very obedient and obedient, and she doesn't have the arrogance of a child from an aristocratic family. Even if she occasionally makes a few harmless remarks with Wuhua, it is mostly in a joking tone, and rarely really angry .

But now he was obviously angry.

For some reason, seeing him like this, Yan Liushuang suddenly wanted to laugh.

"I'm fine, just a skin injury," she said.

"That's not okay." He lowered his brows, making his expression hard to see, but his voice was firm, "If he dares to hurt Master, he will have to pay the price."

The author has something to say: Wuhua: All right, overbearing young master, lose, lose.
