where to go home

"Unexpectedly, the old lady really let you into the school."

Lin Lie shook his head helplessly, "Actually, there are many sects in Jianghu, whether it is Chunyang's Tai Chi Bagua, or Tibetan Sword's Wenshui Shanju, they are much better than our Tangjiabao."

Qingling had already left with her panda in her arms, leaving only Yi Yao walking side by side on the way back.There are not many people on this road, and it looks a bit quiet. Coupled with the bamboo forest and the stream, it has a bit of a fairyland taste in the painting.

"I'm not interested in those things."

Yi Yao said slowly: "For martial arts practitioners, the most important thing is how to use the weapon in your hand to quickly defeat the enemy, instead of dragging your feet and telling him about benevolence, justice and morality."

Lin Lie turned his head slightly to look at Yi Yao. Although the eyes were beautiful, they were calm and unwavering, unlike the raging fire when they first met, making people unable to look away.

"What do you mean by weapons?"

"...Brother, we are here."

Lin Lie turned his head and stopped, only to find that he had reached his own yard.Originally, he wanted to take her to other women's residences, but now there is no space available, only she and Qingling are free here, so they had to stay here temporarily.

"Junior Sister, Junior Sister Qingling and I are the only ones living in this place now. I live in the room to the north, and you and Qingling live in the room to the south. It sounds a bit cramped, but the room is still spacious. I'm sorry for you."

"I don't dare to ask for anything, but I want to thank Senior Brother Lin for the arrangement." Yi Yao clasped his fists solemnly.

Lin Lie helped his forehead helplessly, and said with a smile, "Yi Yao, you and I are both members of the Tang Sect, so don't be cautious. You can come to me no matter what you do." As he spoke, he walked to his room, turning his back to Yi Yao. waved.

"If you smile more, I will feel relieved a lot."

Yi Yao watched him close the door before walking to the room opposite him with the package.Pushing the door open and entering the house, one can see that the house should be cleaned every day. Although it looks simple, it is clean and tidy.The two beds are facing each other, and there is a slightly delicate dressing table next to the bed, but there are some clay figurines and pig bones on the table. It seems that the person who uses this dressing table to "dress up" is still a cute child .

"laugh?"

Yi Yao lay on his back on the bed without the cloth tiger, looking out the window at the chirping sparrows that had fallen on the branches.

"Is there anything in the world worth laughing about..."

Lin Lie was fiddling with the newly made Thousand Machine Crossbow on the table in the house, sometimes picking it up and sometimes putting it down, and then simply leaned back and lay down on the straw mat.The perception of assassins over the years told her that the girl in the opposite room must have a story, and it would not be a good story.I want to doubt her purpose of entering Tangmen, but I think of the firm and fiery eyes when we first met, and think that she may be trustworthy.

"What is the weapon you want..."

……

Yangzhou is different from old towns like Luoyang. While fighting wars with other countries, the Tang Dynasty did not forget to cooperate with friendly countries to establish waterway transportation——Yangzhou, as one of the ports, developed under such conditions Yes, at this time it has the reputation of "raising one and benefiting two".

Qin Yunze, Lan Yuyan, and Lie Shan, who was pulled hard by Yunze to avoid fighting with other horses, were standing in front of the gate of Yangzhou in a daze.

Lan Yuyan sneaked up to Yunze's side, and asked in a low voice, "Stupid Yunze, there are a lot of people here?"

"Well! The next thing is to go to the boat!"

"Boat? Is it the one pictured in the book? The one that can float on the water?"

"Well...probably, I haven't sat down either."

Lan Yu lowered her head in frustration, my God, I actually ran so far with an idiot who didn't know anything...

The two little ghosts temporarily sent Lie Shan to the horse merchant's stable, went to the teahouse to inquire about the location of the port, and ran there, just in time for a boat that was about to leave.

"Boatman, we are going to Qixiufang!"

"Qixiufang? What's that place?" Lan Yuyan asked suspiciously.

"Yo! Little girl, you dare to get on the boat with this little brother without even knowing where you are going?" The old boatman couldn't help but want to tease Yuyun.

"So what?" Lan Yuyan curled her lips, "With his elm head, he can't think of any way to harm me!"

"Yu Yun..." Qin Yunze could only ignore Lao Chuan's laughter, and explained to her: "I also heard from my senior sisters and brothers occasionally that the apprentices of Qixiufang are basically orphans rescued from the rivers and lakes, or A young woman whose heart was broken by a man. I heard that there are girls there, and they will definitely accept you when you go. When you finish your studies, you can do what you want to do."

"Can you really... do what you want?"

"Of course!"

Yu Yun didn't speak anymore, and Qin Yunze didn't know what to say, so the two of them fell silent like this, and the only thing that could be heard was the sound of the old boatman paddling in the water.They seldom had such an atmosphere along the way, especially when Lan Yuyan had nothing to do except eat, but now she didn't even say a word.

In less than two hours, the boat stopped at the pier of Slender West Lake. After traveling together for so long, it was finally time to say goodbye.

Only then did Lan Yuyan understand what was causing the sadness in her heart just now—this place was thousands of miles away from Luoyang City, and she would start a new life here.She will never see her gambler brother again, and likewise, she will never see this stupid young man in front of her again, but desperately protecting her.

She didn't regret it, just a little sad.

"Miss Lan, this is Qixiu. If you walk forward, you should be able to meet people from Xiufang. You..." Qin Yunze scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed for some reason.

"I got it! That's all, all right, let's go! Practice your gun well, and you'll be able to beat others before you get ahead! Also, next time, don't lead people to run so far, your waist is sore!" Yun Ze didn't notice the wet eyes of Lan Yuying's coquettish appearance, so he could only reply: "Well, I will definitely remember next time." Lan Yuyan was so angry that she cursed, "There will be a next time..."

"Well, you pay attention to safety...I, I'm leaving now..." Yunze held the gun, waved at her hesitantly, turned around and wanted to board the boat.

"Stay Yunze!!" Lan Yuyan ran back, she wanted to hug Yunze's shoulder again, probably just to see his embarrassed expression again, but found that both hands were full of luggage, so she had to raise her arms and put them down again.

"In the future, no matter whether your martial arts is good or not, don't trust others easily! Just like this time, the boss only gave my brother 20 taels, and she said you can believe 200 taels! Are you angry!" He hit Yunze twice with his luggage, looking a little annoyed.

Yun Ze was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Hey, it's okay, didn't I take you out?" Seeing that Lan Yuyan was angry again, he quickly changed his words, "Ah, Miss Lan, I know , will definitely change in the future!"

"I'm leaving, Miss Lan, take care... There will be a period later."

Following Qin Yunze's clasped fists and turning around, Lan Yuyan murmured "Who wants to see you again", and at the same time quickly rubbed her eyes with her sleeves, and kept staring at the direction of the boat. in this way.

A quarter of an hour later, the old boatman looked at Yunze who was lying on the boat and vomited with some distress, "Son, if you are seasick, why didn't you say it just now, you should rest well before going on your way..."

"Ahem..." Qin Yunze raised his body and lay on his back on the boat with difficulty, "In front of Miss Lan, I really don't want to..." Before he finished speaking, his stomach was overwhelmed again, so he had to get up and lie down on the side of the boat again. happy.

By the time he returned to Tiance Mansion, more than a month had passed, and he hadn't recovered from his exhaustion when he saw Qin Yunlan handing over a piece of paper expectantly:

"Brother, Yunlan can neither practice martial arts nor accompany her brother to fight the enemy, so... Yunlan wants to go to Wanhua Valley to learn medicine from a famous teacher. My sister has no special skills. If she can go to the battlefield as a military doctor in the future, Also live up to the glory of our Qin family..."

Qin Yunze couldn't react in time, he read the letter over and over again, finally he could only sigh, and gently patted her head.

"Since my father has agreed, then I, as an older brother, will naturally support it. It's just that you are alone in the valley, and there is no one to take care of you. I am really worried for my brother..."

Qin Yunlan smiled, and took out a small notebook from his bosom, and inside it was a small regular script pen covered with a paper and pen cap.But before she started writing, the notebook was gently pressed down by Yun Ze, and Yun Lan looked up at her elder brother who seemed to have grown up suspiciously.

"No need to write, you are going, I will send you off for my brother. However, remember to go home during the Chinese New Year." She patted her sister's head dotingly, and her smile became more relieved.

He used to think that the best way to protect the people he cherished was to keep them by his side, so that no matter what kind of difficulties came up, he would be there immediately to protect his most important family and friends.Until later, his senior sister left without saying goodbye, escorting the troubled Miss Lan to Xiufang, and now she is going to send Yunlan to Wanhua Valley to study medicine... He already understood that the real protection is not stubborn retention, but to let oneself continue to become stronger, So strong that no matter where they are in the world, I will become the strongest support.

In fact, people don't have to be sad about parting - once we meet, there will be parting, and only after parting can we have the opportunity to enjoy the joy of reunion.

……

Although it is almost summer, the wind in Zishi still makes people tremble.When Qingling fell asleep, Yi Yao put on his cloak and sat on the roof - he used to always laugh at Yunze and wanted to stay on the roof every day, like a child who didn't grow up.Now I don’t know when, I also like to sit on the roof and blow the night breeze, it seems that this can blow away the troubles and anxiety, and sleep until dawn.

Maybe it was because of acclimatization, or maybe because of being irritable, Yi Yao didn't feel sleepy at all, so he could only lie on his back on the roof and look at the stars.It's a pity that the sky didn't go as planned, the sky was so overcast that there was nothing but dark clouds, Yi Yao couldn't help feeling a little depressed.When I was worried, I caught a glimpse of a bundle of long bamboo poles piled up in the corner, the leaves were all cut off, I don't know what the purpose is.

"There's nothing left or right." Yi Yao jumped off the roof and pulled out a bamboo pole that was about the same height as him, "Why don't you and I invite the moon to dance together." Then he performed lightness kung fu and came to an open space not far away.

Even if what he was holding in his hand was nothing more than a hollow bamboo joint, Yi Yao's thrusts and stabs could still sweep away thousands of troops.She is not too old, and she is even slightly inferior to Yunze in terms of strength, but she can win every time she competes with Yunze. momentum.

Those who collapse, startled waterfalls and rain, ground cracks and landslides.

The sudden ones, the guns are like rushing thunder, and the momentum is like lightning.

Those who are destroyed, humans and gods will be angry together, and heaven and earth will be hurt together.

Those who are sick, those who avoid me will live, and those who stand in my way will die.

"It's a pity that there is no moon and no wine today..." Yi Yao stuck the bamboo pole on the ground and looked into the distance, as if feeling a lot of emotion.

"Alcohol hurts your health, it's better for a girl to drink less."

Yi Yao was startled, she hadn't felt anyone else's breath here for a long time, when suddenly a male voice came, sending chills down his spine.Turning around quickly, after seeing the person coming, he was relieved, and turned his back to tease:

"Do people in the Tang Sect like to scare people behind their backs? Brother Lin?"

Lin Lie smiled, "I've been here for a long time, and I don't want someone to dance with a gun in the middle of the night and disturb people's dreams."

Yi Yao was a little embarrassed, so he turned around and cupped his fists and said, "Yi Yao doesn't know that senior brother is here to clean up, but he still hopes senior brother Haihan."

Lin Lie waved his hand nonchalantly, and asked nonchalantly: "It's okay. Junior sister is really good at kung fu. The set of flying thunder spear technique just now must be considered one of the best among the disciples of the same generation in Tiance Mansion, right?"

"Senior Brother Lin...I..."

"I heard that three months ago, a fire broke out in the Tiance Mansion, and three members of the family died. Only one woman who lived with them escaped unscathed. It seems... is the master's apprentice. No trace."

"..." Yi Yao was too shocked to speak. She wanted to explain, but she didn't know how to speak.It's been three months, when someone who doesn't even count as a friend said something that she was thinking about every day without any emotion. The chaos couldn't get any worse.

Before she regained consciousness, an icy thousand machine crossbow hit her heart with lightning speed, and the person on the opposite side bent slightly, with piercingly cold eyes, completely different from when they first met .He ignored Yi Yao who was stiff all over, and asked slowly in her ear:

"So, have you ever done something like killing a teacher?"
