Chapter 430: Troubles on the Lake (Part 2)
Yi Xifeng and Li Xintian were exploring the scenery of the lake on a bamboo raft. It must be said that Luojian Lake, located at the foot of Qingyun Mountain, is indeed beautiful. Not only can you admire it at the Jiuhua Building on the lakeside, you can also experience the gorgeous scenery here while rafting at this time. On the lake, looking at the towering Qingyun Mountain, it is also a different feeling.
As the bamboo raft rowed across the sparkling lake, they soon arrived at the center of the lake, and naturally discovered the group of white fish in the middle of the lake.
"Look! Those fish are so interesting." Li Xintian said excitedly, pointing to the white fish in the lake.
The old man holding the boat behind them grinned and said: "The white fish at this time are a group of fish unique to Luojian Lake. They taste extremely delicious. They are as famous as the whitebait in Chunfeng River in Luoye County. They are the famous fish of our Luo Yun Kingdom. One of the four major river delicacies.”
When Yi Xifeng saw these white fish, his eyes suddenly lit up. He glanced at the fair-skinned girl next to him, and then smiled slightly.
Everyone ate this white fish at Jiuhua Tower last night. It tasted really delicious, different from the whitebait in Chunfeng River. There is a thick layer of fish oil under the skin of whitebait, which is suitable for roasting and stewing. But this white fish has extremely tender meat, and it will be extremely delicious when steamed in a pot.
He could see clearly last night that Li Xintian loved this dish the most. Although now she thought the fish were interesting, the fair boy would bet that in less than half a cup of tea, the other party would be greedy for these plump white fish...
Just as Yi Xifeng was thinking to himself, the fair-skinned girl on the side turned back to the old man holding the boat and said, "Excuse me, is it okay to just catch fish without going into the bottom of the lake to explore?"
Yi Xifeng: "..."
Naturally, he would not let the girl go into the water to catch fish. On the one hand, spring had just entered, and it was the coldest season of spring. The temperature of the lake was certainly not high. This is nothing to him who has the body protection technique of Alcohol Control, but it is a bit difficult for the girl.
On the other hand, in order to go on the mission this time, the clothes that everyone passed down were not very heavy. Except for the white cloak on the outside, he only wore a thin layer on the inside. If Li Xintian goes into the water, he will naturally have to take off the outer cloak first, and the thin shirt inside has excellent permeability and visibility when wet!
Although the fair-skinned girl is young after all, she can't see any "scale", but regarding this kind of thing, Yi Xifeng has always held the view that "wet body is small, gonorrhea is big".
Last but not least, Yi Xifeng himself has excellent swimming skills in the water. This kind of job of fishing in the water is naturally better than mine. After all, in his previous life at school, he was known as the "No. 1 Water Toad in Class XX". This reputation was not in vain!
The fair boy took off his cloak, handed it to Li Xintian, and then jumped into the lake. Since the girl he cared about was watching from the side, this vertical movement was extremely standard and smooth!
There was only a "poof!" sound, and there was no corresponding "pass" sound at the end. Yi Xifeng plunged into the lake without any splash on the water.
This also indirectly led to the fact that the girl named Ling'e who came from the side did not notice anyone entering the water.
Yi Xifeng's whole body's blood is run by alcohol and internal energy, and he is good at holding his breath for swimming. Last year, he used this skill to enter the cold spring cold pool in Maple Leaf Forest during the martial arts competition last year, and successfully sneaked into the pool. At the bottom, you can get ice iron stone, zeolite and meteorite.
Thus, he successfully forged the "Night Sword Hanxing" behind him.
After Yi Xifeng entered the Luojian Lake, he dived directly into the water and swam among the fish. Whenever he caught a white fish, he would reach back and pass a small piece of red ribbon on his back through the fish's gills and kill it. tie.
And this red ribbon is woven from golden blood silk in Gui Zang. This ribbon is extremely tough and cannot be harmed by ordinary swords, let alone those delicate white fish.
However, what the fair boy did not notice was that when he was concentrating on catching fish, he also caught a lot of the petals on the lake, and some of them even hung on the Hanxing Sword behind him.
If Yi Xifeng looked carefully at this time, he would find that the originally dim starlight on the blade of the Hanxing Sword actually lit up slightly.
…
puff!
Yi Xifeng emerged from the water and heard a strong wind blowing by his ears, like a sharp arrow. He subconsciously tugged on the golden blood silk in his hand, and the Guizang sword scabbard that was originally carried on his back instantly turned to the front of him and was held in his hand.
Click!
The sharp bamboo pole directly touched the scabbard. Even though he was fast enough, it still did not affect the scabbard at all. The entire bamboo pole started to bend and break from the point of contact!
The girl who was standing on the bamboo pole was immediately thrown out and plunged into the lake.
When Li Xintian saw this scene, he was shocked at first, and then found that Yi Xifeng was not seriously injured, but the girl just now fell into the lake after a kind reminder.
She immediately spoke: "Xifeng, save people first!"
In fact, unlike what she said, Yi Xifeng had already plunged into the water again for search and rescue. But the girl obviously understood the nature of water, and after turning around in the water, she surfaced.
Ling'e glared angrily at the "culprit" who caused her to fall into the water. Her already petite face, her pouted mouth at this time was enough to hang a small gourd!
Yi Xifeng swam closer, and when he saw the other person's expression, his head suddenly seemed as big as two.
"Um, girl, are you... coming to swim in the lake?"
"snort!"
"Well, girl, I was in a hurry and stopped the bamboo pole. I didn't notice you standing on the bamboo pole... I'm so rude!" As he said this, Yi Xifeng stepped on the water and held his hands in apology.
At this time, Li Xintian also felt close to him. Seeing the fair young man's appearance, he felt funny in his heart. As that was not enough, he borrowed a pennie from the old man who was punting the boat and asked the two of them to help him get on the boat first.
Ling'e blinked her big, beautiful eyes, raised her hand and pressed the bamboo pen that had been extended into the water, then she jumped up and landed on the bamboo raft. And Yi Xifeng also came out of the water.
When the fair-skinned girl saw the two people coming out of the water, she first took off her cloak and put it on Ling'e, and then handed Yi Xifeng's cloak to the young man.
"Thank you!" Although Ling'e was a little annoyed, she still had the proper etiquette, and judging from the skills of that nasty kid just now, these two people were not like ordinary people.
Li Xintian smiled slightly and said: "It's us who should thank you. Thanks to the girl's reminder just now, otherwise my companion would have been injured."
Hearing these words, Ling'e finally recovered from the grievance of falling into the water. He turned his head and glanced at the fair-skinned young man who was just giggling aside, frowning and said: "Why did you come to the lake?"
Yi Xifeng and Li Xintian looked at each other and felt that it would be better for him to explain. After all, he was the one who shook the other person into the water, so he held his hands and said: "Girl, I'm really sorry. We are not locals. We were playing in Qingyun City today and heard about this The scenery of Luojian Lake is very beautiful, so let’s go out and visit the lake together!”
"Going for an outing to the lake?" Ling'e blinked. She naturally knew what it meant. She had long heard that the young ladies at the foot of the mountain loved to go out for an outing to the lake every spring. What I saw today was...
"When you went on an outing to the lake, were you really swimming in the lake?..."
Regarding this question, Yi Xifeng found it a bit difficult to explain. He glanced at the fair-skinned girl looking up at the sky. At this time, she was only wearing a tight-fitting singlet and had her arms folded in front of her chest.
He subconsciously took off his white cloak and put it on the other party's body. Then he explained bravely: "The purpose of swimming in the lake is to see the scenery. As for swimming in the lake, it is to catch fish!"
As he spoke, Yi Xifeng picked up a red ribbon with six white fish threaded on it.
The moment she saw these white fish, Ling'e finally remembered the other purpose of her trip and exclaimed.
"ah!"
The girl turned her head to look at the center of the lake, and saw that the white fish that had gathered together just now had dispersed, with only a few remaining in place.
"Damn it! My fish!" Ling'e muttered angrily.
Yi Xifeng took this opportunity to circulate his inner energy, causing streams of fiery alcohol to steam up, and the water stains on his body quickly turned into white mist.
Ling'e felt the internal energy fluctuation behind her, and there was a hint of shock in her eyes. It was only then that she felt that the brat behind her had a higher level of energy than her own. And that thick and solid feeling gave him the feeling of facing Senior Brother Changfeng.
"How, how is it possible?! This brat..."
He didn't finish mumbling this sentence. What he actually wanted to say was that this kid didn't look older than himself!
…
Yi Xifeng, Zhong Lingxi, and a girl named Ling'e came to the shore at this time. Since the fair boy used his internal energy to steam away the water stains on his clothes, this girl from the Qingyun Sect has become more curious about the two of them. .
"Where are you from? What are you doing in Qingyun City?"
The fair boy showed his signature shy smile and replied happily: "We are from Luoye County, and we came to Qingchuan County to travel around the world."
As a gold medal liar, Yi Xifeng can be said to have learned the true meaning of lying. A sentence can be true or false, true or false, true or false. It is not easy to deal with a girl like this who is a novice at first sight!
Sure enough, when Ling'e heard this reply, her beautiful eyes opened wide and she asked in surprise: "Traveling?! Have you, you...have started traveling around the world?"
In fact, what Yi Xifeng didn't know was that he accidentally hit the mark, which invisibly increased the girl's trust. In general martial arts sects, disciples will be arranged to travel around the world to hone their skills and enhance their experience.
Take the Qingyun Sect as an example. They know the importance of traveling in the Jianghu. No strong man grows up in a greenhouse. As a Jianghu sect, how can we ensure that our disciples continue to grow during these travels and trials? And it can save lives.
This has become the foundation of a sect and its true responsibility. Why is a well-established sect so important to martial arts practitioners? Because they are based on the experience and inheritance of several generations or even dozens or hundreds of generations, they can protect the safety of these disciples who have not yet grown up to the greatest extent.
Seeing the change in the opponent's expression, Yi Xifeng suddenly felt that something was going on. He tapped Li Xintian's hand in a subtle way. The other party immediately understood what he meant and scolded him with an angry look:
"Brother, you are talking nonsense again. This is the Jianghu, not the sect. It is easier for fellow Taoists of the Qingyun Sect to hear it. If it is some other outsider, Master respects him..."
Having said this, she rolled her eyes fiercely at the boy next to her.
Yi Xifeng scratched his head in embarrassment and explained in a low voice: "Oh, I said too much, this girl doesn't look like a bad person!"
As he said that, he glanced at Ling'e, and his eyes seemed to urge her: "Say a few words quickly and help me out!"
After all, Ling'e was inexperienced. When she saw this posture, she immediately felt like a chicken pecking at rice, and then said: "Don't worry! Don't worry! I am from the Qingyun Sect!"
After hearing the answer given by the other party, Yi and Li looked at each other and breathed a long sigh of relief.
"I'm just saying, this girl doesn't look like a bad person and she's worrying for nothing!" Yi Xifeng said jokingly.
Li Xintian snorted and murmured: "Master said, be careful when sailing the ten thousand year ship!"
Hearing this, Ling'e quickly responded: "Ms. Hu is right, and my master also said it. Good people don't write these two words on their heads. You see, I don't have Qingyun Sect written on my head. I can't I said yes!"
The girl named Ling'e pointed to her forehead in a naive manner.
So the three of them chatted under a pavilion on the shore.
Through chatting, Yi Xifeng learned that this cute and naive little girl was named Jiang Ling'e. He is the Qingyun Sect, an outer disciple of Qianzhu Peak.
He grew up in the Qingyun Sect since childhood and practiced the art of weapon forging with Feng Huzi, the master of Qianzhu Peak.
When the all-powerful Yunxiao Empire was at its peak, the sect behind it was the Yunxiao Sect, also called the Yunxiao Sect. Its status is even higher than the current eight sects. At that time, the only one who could rival it was the Pingtian Sect.
The leader of the Pingtian Sect at that time was none other than Baili Pingtian, the strongest in the world.
It can be seen from this that the Yunxiao Sect at that time was able to compete with the Pingtian Sect, and its strength was evident. It's just that the Yunxiao Sect has had a dispute between the Sword Sect and the Qi Sect since ancient times.
The Sword Sect of the Yunxiao Sect is the predecessor of the Qingyun Sect. The Qi Sect of the Yunxiao Sect was the predecessor of Xiaoyuan Academy. The Yunxiao Sect has a thousand-year heritage, with the Sword Sect and the Qi Sect taking turns in power, and each has produced many top experts.
It wasn't until the Luo Yunzong uprising and stealing the country that the Yunxiao Sect split into two, becoming today's Qingyun Sect and Xiaoyuan Academy! At that time, warriors often called the Yunxiao Sect the Yunxiao Sect in order to distinguish the sects, or to compare Yunxiao and Luo Yun.
Somewhat similar to today's Western Han Dynasty and Eastern Han Dynasty. After all, people who lived in the Western Han Dynasty could not possibly know that after their demise, there would be an Eastern Han Dynasty waiting for them.
"So, Miss Jiang is very good at identifying famous swords and treasures?" Yi Xifeng asked with a smile after learning the other party's identity.
Jiang Ling'e was a little shy, but when facing outsiders, especially when it came to the sect's reputation, she naturally straightened her back and nodded: "Of course!"
"Haha, what a coincidence! Then please ask Miss Jiang to help me palm my eyes!" As he said that, he pulled out the Ye Jian Hanxing from the sheath of the Guizang sword behind him and handed it to the other party respectfully. Apparently, this disciple of the Qingyun Sect was asked to taste it.
