After explaining the matter with Tan She, Xu Huaigu said he wanted to go outside for a walk. Yu Qin naturally accompanied him, and the two of them left the camp and wandered around the town.
It was almost dusk when the two went out, and as they walked around, the sky became darker and darker. The two of them chose quiet places to walk. After a while, they arrived at the edge of the town. The streets here were sparsely populated and there were not many soldiers.
Along the way, the smile on Yu Qin's lips never stopped. Xu Huaigu knew that this was because of Tangshe, and he was happy that Yu Qin could understand him, but he was always a little jealous, as if he was jealous of Tangshe.
Thinking of this, Xu Huaigu himself felt a little funny. As Yu Qin said, you can't share your love for someone. You wish she could only talk to you in the whole world, just because you laugh alone.
However, this was a selfish idea, and Xu Huaigu knew it in his heart, but he just didn't feel comfortable with it.
Well, I'm just a little jealous. There is a dilapidated small courtyard in front, which is pitch black and there is not even a torch. It seems that it has not been requisitioned by the army as a residence.
When the two saw it, they walked in in unison. This is already on the edge of Wuliang Town, with mountains and forests not far away.
Needless to say, the owner of the yard here must have fled to the north. The yard was neglected and the weeds were knee-high after one summer.
However, this did not disturb the two of them. After all, no one would disturb them here. This was their greatest interest.
There is an old well in the yard. It has just rained twice and the water in the well has risen very high. The two sat down on the edge of the well side by side, and within a moment, Yu Qin rested her head on Xu Huaigu's shoulder.
The moonlight is like a wash, bright and white. It was already early autumn, the chirping of cicadas had faded away, and even the chirping of insects in the grass had completely disappeared.
Otherwise, in such a remote yard with no human habitation, it would really be a paradise for summer insects. Xu Huaigu glanced at her and said with a smile: "You are in a good mood today." Hearing what Xu Huaigu said, Yu Qin couldn't help but smile again and said: "That's not because of that child. Although he doesn't understand anything, it's weird. He's so cute, I feel happy when I see it." Xu Huaigu was a little jealous because of this matter. When Yu Qin brought it up again, Xu Huaigu curled his lips and said, "You've only known him for a few days? You're lucky that you're so happy." Yu Qin He opened his eyes wide and approached him with some doubts. He took a closer look at Xu Huaigu's face and suddenly laughed out loud: "I told you that something is not right with you today. Isn't it a case of jealousy?" He was getting to the point. superior.
Xu Huaigu turned his head and looked at the crescent moon in the sky, silently. Yu Qin hugged his hand and said with a mischievous smile: "Oh, things are really changing, and Xu Dajianxian is sometimes jealous."
"How could I be so stingy?" Xu Huaigu hurriedly defended,
"It's just that I think you were a little too kind to that kid. He just followed me, so he should suffer more, otherwise he will be even more unable to discipline him in the future."
"I'm not very nice to him. I just gave him a haircut and said a few words." Yu Qin said this, but in her heart she insisted that Xu Huaigu must be jealous and refused to admit it, so she smiled and said,
"Besides, aren't you going to take him in and teach him our etiquette? Since you want to keep him with us, why don't you treat him well? Otherwise, you might as well just leave him on the battlefield."
"Although he has reached the ninth realm and can still fight on the battlefield, he is still just a child at heart. He will marry anyone who treats him well. You, sir, will have to work hard in the future to put your Teach him as many principles as you can." But having too many principles in your mind is not necessarily a good thing.
Principles and principles will fight from time to time. If you can't understand them, it's better to know less. Xu Huaigu was sulky for a while and felt that it was not interesting to compete with Tan She. He breathed a sigh of relief and changed the subject: "I want to ask you something, do you think I am soft-hearted?" Yu Qin said: "Why do you ask me so suddenly? Come here?" Xu Huaigu said slowly: "I went to talk to Lu Zijin today, and he said that I was too soft-hearted. Then I thought about it carefully, and I think what he said made sense. Not only did I take in the snakes, I also went there today When I met Fan Xuan, she burst into tears in front of me and said a lot of words of repentance. I thought of her transformation and that she had saved Chu Xiuyang after all, so I forgave her. Alas. , I am also a little confused, tell me, am I right to do this?" Yu Qin looked at Xu Huaigu seriously, his expression was indeed very complicated and at a loss.
These expressions rarely appear on Xu Huaigu, and outsiders naturally don't know anything about it. Even she has rarely seen Xu Huaigu questioning herself like this.
She lowered her head and thought carefully for a long time, and said: "I think you did the right thing. This time when I came to the border, I had some contact with Fan Xuan. I felt that her whole person seemed to have changed. She was no longer as domineering as before. Look. On the contrary, she can still consider others and sacrifice her life to save Chu Xiuyang. In my opinion, I also think she has sincerely changed her mind. You forgive her, which is of course right. As for the matter of Tang She, I still have some concerns. , whether it is a good fate or a bad fate, no one can say for sure now, we can only make a decision later. But if you do this, you can't be wrong." Xu Huaigu sighed and said: "Actually, I haven't met you yet. At that time, I had conflicts with the Zixia Sect. There was an elder in the Zixia Sect named Murong Di, who was Fan Xuan’s master. When I was still in Binxi, she was also arrogant and unreasonable, insisting on making things difficult for me and me. Li Zi. I couldn’t see her like that, so I secretly made up my mind to go to Zixia Sect to ask for an explanation in the future. In addition, you also know what happened to Fan Xuan later. If Bai Xiaoyu hadn’t asked her master to minister, Save, even Deng Zhiyuan almost couldn't protect me, so I even had the idea of going to Zixia Sect for reasoning. But now that I have forgiven Fan Xuan, it seems that all my anger has disappeared, and I feel blocked. Gotta panic."
"One code equals the other. You forgive Fan Xuan because Fan Xuan has sincerely changed her ways, and you forgive her. However, Zixia Sect still owes you an apology. This sentence has nothing to do with Fan Xuan, but is the responsibility of Zixia Sect. Things can't be settled together. If you feel that you can't let go of this breath in your heart, and you have to go to Zixia Sect to ask for an explanation, I will accompany you up the mountain to see what kind of explanation they can give. "Yu Qin's tone was firm, and Xu Huaigu smiled and said: "Do you really want to go to Zixia Sect with me? There are still many great monks in Zixia Sect. If they are serious, just the two of us, I'm afraid It’s because you can’t eat enough and have to walk around.”
"What, you don't let me go?"
"You'd better not go. After all, there is still danger..." Yu Qin hurriedly squeezed his hand and said resolutely: "No, then if I don't go, you are not allowed to go. You can't do it every time. If I leave and face the danger alone, I will only feel useless."
"Just like this time, when you come from the south, I can't be with you. I don't even know whether you are alive or dead." Yu Qin buried her head in despair, her tone full of guilt.
"Do you know how anxious I am? I don't want to be someone who hides behind you forever. I also want to stand side by side with you and face danger together. No matter how difficult it is, I hope we can go hand in hand. Pass. Even if we die, we must die together. Otherwise, otherwise..." Yu Qin choked up and couldn't speak anymore.
"I understand." Xu Huaigu gently folded his hands on Yu Qin's and said quietly but firmly.
"I used to be stubborn and thought it was best to protect you behind me, but I didn't expect it to make you so sad. From now on, no matter what happens, we will go together. As for Zixia Sect, I will definitely go up there. We will go up the mountain together when the time comes, I’m afraid they won’t dare to do anything to us.”
"Really?" Yu Qin burst into tears and smiled,
"I'm afraid that if you just promise it now, you will regret it later."
"No, I really figured it out." Xu Huaigu shook his head and said,
"After a trip to Feiyu Island, I learned some other principles." Yu Qin asked, "For example?"
"One is honey, the other is poison. Many times we subconsciously consider problems for others from our own perspective. Although the starting point is good, the effect is counterproductive. Everyone should get what he deserves, and everyone should be rewarded for what they have done. We must act responsibly, so in many cases, we cannot simply use our own ideas to influence each other's actions, but rather respect each other's ideas."
"I don't quite understand it, but it makes sense." Yu Qin said with a smile.
"Anyway, you promised me that we will work side by side from now on. I only know this and that's enough."
"Then you have to practice diligently and don't fall behind too much."
"Don't worry, I know." Yu Qin raised his head and said as if to show off,
"When I was in Fuyao Sect, I was never left behind. I often stayed in Wujian Pavilion. If you don't believe me, you can ask Senior Brother Yin."
"That's a compliment." Xu Huaigu smiled and put his arm around her shoulders. Yu Qin's long hair fell softly on his arm.
Yu Qin said arrogantly: "Praise is not enough, you have to be practical." Xu Huaigu scratched her nose and said with a smile: "We haven't seen each other for a long time, and she has started to speak glibly. Who did she learn from this?" Yu Qin smiled and said nothing. .
The two cuddled up against each other and admired the moonlight for a while. Yu Qin took off the frost-white sword from his waist, picked it up with both hands and put it in front of his eyes. He put his thumb on the scabbard and pushed it out half an inch.
I saw the moonlight shining on the sword's edge, flashing a cold light, which was extremely beautiful. This sword was the immortal weapon left to Xu Huaigu after she killed Cui Huai.
It is two feet and eight inches long. It is a short sword with a small seal engraved on the hilt.
The word "Rain Curtain" is a genuine ancient sword of immortal weapons. Not to mention rare, it is difficult for ordinary monks to meet him once.
It's a good thing that Cui Huai is an elder of the Nine Realms of Shuiyun Sect, otherwise he wouldn't be able to come up with such a good sword.
Yu Qin looked at the edge of the sword, feeling full of ambition and said: "When I break through the five realms, I will refine this sword and make it my natal flying sword, and then I can catch up with you." Xu Huaigu touched her head and smiled happily. .
He also hopes that one day, Yu Qin can truly become a swordsman respected by everyone and stand side by side with him.
I hope this rain curtain sword is the beginning of all this.
