It was getting late before he realized it. Xu Huaigu knelt in the secret room on the top floor of Wujian Pavilion for a long time before he finally figured out the crux of the matter. He picked up his already sore knees and stood up and walked away.
With no expression on his face, he slowly walked down to Wu Jian's attic.
When he reached about the third or fourth floor, he heard what seemed to be a quarrel under the attic. He walked closer before he heard it clearly.
"Smoking again! Still smoking! I know you smoke these damn cigarettes. Do you still act like a senior brother?"
"Elder Xing, I...I really don't dare to smoke again! If I smoke again next time, I will definitely let you do it!"
This voice was heartbreaking, as if he was determined to repent, and Xu Huaigu grinned.
"What! Is there a next time? If I bump into you next time, get out of the Fuyao Sect!"
Xu Huaigu had already reached the attic at this time. He saw the man with the sword standing at the attic, and he decisively broke the pipe. He said with great sadness: "There will never be a next time!"
The old man known as Elder Xing snorted coldly, and then walked into Wujian Pavilion with lingering anger. When he came in, he did not forget to glance coldly at Xu Huaigu who was standing at the door.
Suddenly, an angry voice burst out in his heart: "Boy, Deng Zhiyuan doesn't even want to accept you as his disciple. He thinks too highly of himself!"
Xu Huaigu walked out of the main entrance without changing his expression. When the man holding the sword saw it was Xu Huaigu, he urged angrily: "Hurry up and leave!"
As soon as Xu Huaigu took a few steps, a woman wearing a moon-white double-breasted skirt and light pink plum blossom embroidered shoes jumped to his side. She took his hand generously, smiled beautifully, and looked at him expectantly. Looking at him.
When Xu Huaigu saw that it was Yu Qin, although he was not very proud, the corner of his mouth could not help but smile.
The last time we met, she was not so courageous and would be shy when meeting Qin Guanyu. Why is she so generous now?
The man holding the sword was feeling distressed about the broken pipe. He turned around and saw that Elder Xing had gone upstairs. He quickly dug into his pocket again, then dug out a few remaining tobacco pipes and secretly threw them into his mouth. Started chewing.
He smiled with satisfaction, but in the blink of an eye, he saw Yu Qin running over, with a bright and peach blossom smile, and actually took the hand of the bastard, and was so shocked that he couldn't close his jaw. .
The man holding the sword looked at the happiness and smile in Yu Qin's eyes that he had never seen before, and he felt that his heart was about to break.
Seeing Xu Huaigu lovingly reaching out to caress Yu Qin's long hair again, the two of them were very close to each other, and Yu Qin even rubbed her head in his arms. The man holding the sword felt that his heart was cramping, and the hand in his hand was cramping. The long sword fell to the ground with a "snap".
Yu Qin blushed slightly again, shyly stood on tiptoes, and whispered a few words into Xu Huaigu's ear. He only vaguely heard the words "Go to my house" and was immediately frightened and said "bah bah bah". He spat out the chewed tobacco in his mouth and stared at the two of them with dumbfounded eyes. The shocked look was as if he saw the ink dragon appearing in Fuyao Sect for no reason.
My heart hurts so much, it hurts more than when the elder punished him to guard Wujian Pavilion for a month.
Xu Huaigu and Yu Qin laughed, leaned on each other, and gradually walked away down the mountain.
The man holding the sword stared at the disappearing figures of the two men, and then glanced at the tobacco spitting out on the ground. He stepped on it and twisted it a few times, cursing and saying: "Go ahead, damn it! If only I could be like this A woman, and I still smoke a shitty cigarette!"
…
In a small bamboo house in the mountains, the moonlight was just right, shining through the gaps between the small windows and the bamboos. Yu Qin tied up her sleeves, exposing her fair and slender forearms, squatted down, and took out a bottle of delicate wine from the corner of the cupboard.
She carried the jug of wine to the table and poured a cup into the cup opposite her. She poured a cup of mountain spring water saved in a bamboo tube into her own cup.
She sat down with a smile and said: "This wine was given to me by a friend last time. It is said that it is a fairy wine produced in China."
Where's the wine? I never got used to drinking wine, so I kept it and thought of giving it to you. "
She only
She said they were friends, but she didn't tell her that this was actually a top-notch piece of immortality that a man who admired her had spent a lot of time to get. He wanted to make her smile, but unfortunately he went away in disgrace. Now if he knew that the wine was given to another man, I don't know if he would be angry to death.
Xu Huaigu went up and smelled it in surprise. Sure enough, the wine had a mellow taste and a clear color. It was a good wine that could not be bought on the market.
He picked it up and took a big sip, exhaled and said cheerfully: "Good wine, good wine, I have never had such a delicious wine. And you left it specially for me, even the taste is different."
Yu Qin's eyes were gentle and she smiled quietly: "If you like to drink more, I will look for that friend to see if I can get another pot and drink slowly from now on."
Xu Huaigu nodded. Although he lowered his head to drink, his eyebrows were raised. His eyes were secretly looking at Yu Qin. When he saw that she was only looking at him seriously, her eyes were so soft that they turned into water. Needless to say, he was moved in his heart.
Xu Huaigu remembered something and asked her, "Qin'er, what state are you in now?"
Yu Qin paused with a smile, and said with some embarrassment: "Senior Deng checked it for me and said that my qualifications are only average, so I have only been in the second level in the past two years. I know that I am not suitable for practice, but since it was you at the beginning If you ask me to come, it must be good for me, so I haven't slacked off, but the efficiency is really not high."
Xu Huaigu didn't care and said: "As for the realm, most of the time we can only do our best and obey the fate. By the way, when I met you at Huangqi Mountain, you were only in the second realm. At that time, I had already been practicing for four years. So your second realm is not slow. Besides, my original intention of letting you come to Fuyao Sect is not to make you high or powerful, but to let you experience the scenery on the mountain. As for fighting and killing, Don’t worry so much, you still have me anyway.”
Yu Qin lowered his head and smiled, looked up at him shyly, and said with a blushing face: "Actually, I have another purpose in practicing my own practice, which is to get closer to you. You have been practicing for more than ten years. If I were still an ordinary person, I would You don't look too good. Besides, we can still be together now, but I'm afraid that we will be separated in the future because of the big ideological gap, so I also want to follow your footsteps. I don't just want you to be in front. Protect me from the wind and rain, and I can help you from behind."
These words made Xu Huaigu feel mixed in his heart, and he trembled with emotion: "Qin'er..."
The two of them were sitting opposite each other like this. Yu Qin seemed a little dissatisfied. He hesitated for a while and said, "Should we just sit like this? How about we get closer?"
Xu Huaigu was taking a sip of wine. He couldn't help but feel shocked, but his face was calm and he asked, "What's the shortest way?"
Yu Qin lowered his eyes and said softly: "We can sit next to each other, what else can we do."
This bamboo building is a place for cleaning. There are not many pieces of furniture in the building, and there are only two chairs.
Xu Huaigu was thinking about how to sit, but she got up, pulled Xu Huaigu to the edge of the bed, sat down next to him, and pretended to be calm: "There is no place to sit at home, so just make do with it."
Xu Huaigu was wondering whether this little girl really thought so or was deliberately teasing him, but when he caught a glimpse of her ears that were red with embarrassment, he suddenly understood. It's just that knowing these things brought him far from excitement or happiness, but a feeling of being in another world.
After careful calculation, Yu Qin and he were of the same age, and she was already nineteen years old. She was no longer the childish and innocent girl who knew nothing. What's more, during the two years on this mountain, those fellow disciples didn't know what they said to her. All in all, the little girl must have become enlightened about the affairs between men and women.
Xu Huaigu felt a little sentimental in his heart, which was completely different from when he faced Zhuang Yeyun. He knew that Yu Qin kept silent today about what happened in Zixia Sect and what the bag behind her was. It was not that she didn't want to know, but that she didn't want to ask.
She wanted to give Xu Huaigu more freedom and let him have his own secrets. As for whether he was willing to tell them, that was Xu Huaigu's business.
Xu Huaigu was so confused that he frowned unconsciously. Yu Qin saw this and quickly shrank into his arms, asking with concern: "What's wrong? Is there something I didn't do well?"
Xu Huaigu felt ashamed when he heard this.
With such a good girl who likes him and thinks about everything for him, how can he still think about anyone else? Thinking of the stupid things that happened in Zixia Sect, he wanted to slap himself several times. If he fails such a girl, God will punish him. Maybe no woman will like him again in the next life.
Xu Huaigu quickly reached out and hugged her, gently placed his chin on her head, and advised, "No, I just thought of something else and was a little lost in thought."
Yu Qin smiled, and Xu Huaigu was keenly aware of the slight bitterness in it.
He quickly changed his words and said: "It reminds me of the time when you and I first met, in Huangqi Mountain, you fed me medicine, porridge, and cooked me a meal of bacon. To be honest, that meal of bacon was mine The most delicious food I have ever eaten in my life, I really want to try it again.”
Yu Qin was relieved. She felt a little regretful that she had misunderstood him, and she quickly shrank tighter, like a docile little quail. She smiled and said, "I remember you were teasing me at that time. You said you couldn't even buy a piece of bacon for ten taels of silver, but I still believed you. I later learned that ten taels of silver was enough to buy half a pig, which can be smoked." I don’t know how many!”
Seeing this cute charm, Xu Huaigu couldn't help pinching her nose, which made Yu Qin feel a little shy.
The two of them just whispered words that only they could understand beside the bed, and before they knew it, it was past midnight. Yu Qin lay comfortably in his arms and yawned unconsciously, saying, "I'm a little tired."
Xu Huaigu said: "Then you should go to bed first. I will meditate there for a while. It will be dawn soon."
He wanted to get up, but Yu Qin held him back and refused to let him go.
Xu Huaigu's heart was pounding so hard that he had to sit back and asked, "What's wrong?"
Yu Qin bit her lip, as if she had made up her mind a long time ago, and said, "Why don't you come up? It's so tiring sitting around, we can just make it work for one night."
Xu Huaigu stared at her. Yu Qin's cheeks were as red as blood and she didn't dare to look at him. She just looked away angrily to the other side.
After a long while, Xu Huaigu sighed: "Is this really going to be like this, Qin'er?"
Yu Qin hugged him, buried her head in shame, and said, "Sisters told me that if you want to win a man's favor, you have to be like this."
"Xu Huaigu, actually I know that Liu Waner likes you. I've also heard a little bit about you and the woman named Zhuang Yeyun in Zixia Sect. I know that you have never gone beyond your limits because of me. I should give it to you."
Xu Huaigu's eyes averted and he said hesitantly: "But I, I had an issue with Zhuang Yeyun. I'm sorry..."
Yu Qin suddenly looked up at him, Xu Huaigu closed his eyes and did not dare to look at her, and said sadly: "I'm sorry... I'm sorry..."
After a long time, she sighed, shook her head and said, "Forget it, that was a thing of the past. I know that I am not worthy of you. I don't ask that you only fall in love with me. I just ask that you don't abandon me."
Xu Huaigu's heart was cut by a knife, and he immediately said seriously: "How can you not be worthy of me? It's me who is not worthy of you. I, Xu Huaigu, swear now that if I fail you, I will be punished by heaven and earth!"
There were tears in Yu Qin's eyes, and she said tremblingly: "Okay, okay..."
She slipped out of Xu Huaigu's arms lightly and climbed onto the bed silently like a kitten. She wiped away her tears and said with a smile, "My sisters also said that this will not be comfortable for the first time, so be careful."
Xu Huaigu stared at her for a while, asking himself that he was not a saint without any emotions, but now was not the time, especially after hearing what Yu Qin said.
What if what Bai Xiaoyu said is right? Why don’t you actually like Yu Qin? Taking her now will harm her for the rest of her life.
So Xu Huaigu shook his head, and Yu Qin lowered his head in disappointment and said in confusion: "Why?"
Xu Huaigu just shook his head and said, "Now is not the time."
