Sealing Knife

This night, Chu Xiwei wore a star and wore a moon, and finally returned to Dongming Valley.

When he went, he brought a team of people with him, but when he came back, he only followed half of them. The rest of them were left to Qin Lanshang by him, and he went to Sanming College with Landing Mingyuan.

They all say, "You can't help your mother". Although this sentence is not appropriate on Qin Lanshang, the child will inevitably give birth to his own thoughts when he grows up. That was the case with Chu Xiwei, as was Qin Lanshang.

That night, the wine went away at the Zuichunlou, Chu Xiwei took the landing Mingyuan and others to leave Tianjing City, and he didn't plan to stay there anymore. Originally thinking of sending someone to send Lu Mingyuan back to Samadhi College to deal with the aftermath of the Southern Confucian School and assisting the academy to rectify the internal affairs is already a benevolent endeavor.

Chu Xiwei didn't rush to reprimand her this time, just asked two sentences: "Why go? Go, what can you do?"

It was by the moat, under the shade of green poplar, the east had just exposed the fish belly white, the sky was still dim, he could not see the girl ’s drooping eyebrows, but he could hear her voice: "There is no reason, I think I should go Then you should go and never give yourself a chance to regret it.

"I don't know much, I can do very little, but I can't let others do it for me."

Chu Xiwei was silent for a moment before he said: "There is a hidden pile of court parties in the Samadhi Academy, and there is an intrigue in the inside. If you go this time, my righteous father and I may not be able to protect you."

"I always learn to protect myself and protect others." Qin Lanshang thought for a while and took his hand in his petite palm, and said softly, "Ye Shu said, 'Children will always grow up and adults will grow old'." ... Uncle, I think he is right. "

Maybe the day when they are all old is still strong, but the children can't hide behind adults.

The towering trees will always die, and the mountain water will be cut off.

What's more, it's people who are old, sick, dead, and unlucky?

Chu Xiwei raised the other hand, paused in the air for a moment, and finally landed on her head, rubbing gently.

"I leave you" Qingling Flute "and a team of" Ghost Shadows ", so I can do it for myself." After a pause, his eyes fell on Lu Mingyuan again, and his internal force gathered into a line, cold and cold, "If she has an accident, And you are safe and sound, I will add to you ten times. "

Lu Mingyuan was still half-covered, and Wen Yanxiao bent his eyes, but nodded solemnly.

In this way, we will run things independently, and we will be independent.

This is a dangerous way to go, and it is not easy to come back. When Chu Xiwei returned to Dongming Valley, it was past the time of the night.

He sent his subordinates to the sentry post, and did not disturb the extra people. After issuing a simple command, these people were dismissed back to rest, and he returned to Liufengju under the wind and dust.

However, Liufeng was in the house, in addition to sweeping the servants and guards, there was one more person.

Shen Wuduan was sitting under the osmanthus tree in his single clothes, knocking on the chess pieces with one hand, and shaking the small silver jug ​​filled with wine in one hand, with a slight face on his face, but his eyes were still clear.

Seeing him enter the courtyard door, Shen Wuduan waved his servants away, and raised his chin towards the empty seat in front of him, saying, "Since I received your flying book, I started to calculate the schedule and came back tonight. Sit down and drink the bar first. "

Chu Xiwei took the small silver pot that was thrown towards the door, and raised his head to drink a bite of wine. This time the wine was bitter in the mouth, but he returned to Gan after crossing the throat, and the taste of bitterness and sweetness was filled in his mouth.

He raised an eyebrow: "What kind of wine is this?"

"Galan City's 'Ten Year Lamp'." Shen Wuduan played with Bai Zi among his fingers. "You are going to the capital of Beijing this time. I must have felt a lot of emotion. Is this pot of wine comforting you?"

Tao Li Chunfeng a glass of wine, Jianghu night rain ten years lights. (Note)

In the past, the spring breeze looked at Tao Li with pride, and now the rivers and lakes are drifting.

Revisiting the place of origin, the personnel is totally non-existent, and it really is a lot of emotion.

Chu Xiwei closed her eyes, took another sip, and sat down opposite him, saying, "Enough."

These three words of his words were understated, and when he returned home, his depression seemed to dilute with the sip of wine, and disappeared in the cool night breeze between his breath.

Shen Wuduan glanced at him, took the hip flask, skipped the topic without knowing it, and smiled slightly: "Come on."

His elders held Bai Zi, Chu Xiwei took the lead in black, and the two of them went the same way. They both took a strange way, and put a black and white game out of the interlocking game. In the end, Chu Xiwei took the first step. Settle the beauty and kill the dragon.

Shen Wuduan carefully looked at it for a long while, with a long smile, he confessed, saying, "You won."

"Concession."

"No, no, you and I will go all out for this round. You won because of your own ability. I lost is not as good as you. What can you do?" Shen Wuduan looked up at him. My chess skills are taught by me. From the beginning, I completely imitated my way, and now I have my own plan, from the initial loss to the victory, and now I have been stronger than me ... you know, this is what reason?"

Chu Xiwei said: "A decade of time is not always a long way."

"Hah, there are so many people in this world that spend their years in vain. Ten years can make the difference between life and death, and it can make people look from the inside out." Shen Wuduan pointed a hand to his heart, shaking his head and shaking his head, "Xi Wei, Your heart has changed ... well, very good. "

Chu Xiwei was silent.

"I have watched you grow up over the years, from a wolf cub who has eaten people to what it is today. It looks like a dog and a dog. It is very capable of staying in the field, but I have not really given you the authority to know. why?"

Chu Xiwei said: "Because I am not qualified yet."

"It's true." Shen Wuyuan's fingers struck the chessboard. "You are talented, and you can enter the country very fast regardless of martial arts or knowledge. What's more is perseverance and perseverance. You are not afraid of suffering or death. You are too cruel. "

Chu Xiwei didn't say a word, so he heard Shen Wuduan said: "You have a fierce style and fierce methods, and you have a clear way of doing things. There is little room for others, and you have involuntarily broken a lot of retreats and forced yourself to A seemingly high position is actually the point of the storm. "

After a pause, he smiled again: "And you are still stubborn and don't repent."

Chu Xiwei couldn't help but raised his mouth.

He grew up with his mother's eyes and delicate facial features from a young age. When he opened his eyes, his eyes were fine. If it were not like a sword with a sharp eye and a sharp eye like a knife, he was always unsmiling. He looked gorgeous and aggressive.

But now he hooked the lips of the blade into a crescent, and his eyes were exhausted, reflecting the glory of the night, and a slight smile from his brows, softening the perennial cold expression, but showing no femininity, only There is a little more light and gentle gentleman.

He seemed to fade away the remaining greenness at this moment, and he really started to grow into a calm and mature man.

Chu Xi smiled and asked, "So am I qualified now?"

Shen Wuduan said: "It depends on your current skills ... Tianjing and his party, the harvest is not small?"

Chu Xiwei is very clear about the meaning implicit in his words. After all, although he is the master, he still has a very shallow background. The real power of Bai Guimen is still in the hands of Shen Wuduan. He can know his general actions. Reasonable.

Not annoyed or angry, Chu Xiwei said frankly about his meeting with Chu Ziyu, together with his own life experience and Chu Ziyu's plans to spread out in front of him, no longer reserved.

Regarding his identity, Chu Ziyu did not say anything when he made a transaction with Shen Wuduan. Chu Xiwei never mentioned it for so many years. Although Shen Wuduan had a guess in his heart, he did n’t investigate it in the end. Surprised, only the kind of "should be so" is clear.

However, after listening to Chu Xiwei's remarks, Shen Wuduan remained silent for a long while, and asked, "Since Gao Zu, 'Xia to marry by martial arts, Confucianism to literary chaos and law' have indeed spread so widely that it has led to a stream of rivers and lakes Endlessly, Ruan Feiyu has good knowledge and planned this way ... But, how do you think about this? "

Chu Xiwei said: "Everyone says 'people don't fight against officials', let's say the emperor has orders, of course, I dare not."

Shen Wuduan's face sank: "So you have to take Bai Guimen as a puppet in his hand!"

Although he was old, the sword was still there. At this time, he faded and laughed, and his lowered face no longer looked like that old puck.

Under such heavy pressure, Chu Xiwei still did not move like a mountain, but only smiled gently.

"Swords are to people, just as people are to people, they are tools for chasing fame and profit." Chu Xiwei poured himself a glass of wine. Blood doesn't care, the wise man must think a lot out of the sheath. "

After a pause, he smiled at Shen Wuduan: "Although the thread puppet is manipulated by human hands, the clues are vertical and horizontal, and it also restrains people."

Shen Wuduan narrowed his eyes, but the pretentious dark color receded from his face like a tide, his body was loose, and he was lazy and boneless.

"Sure enough, I grew up and thought a lot." Shen Wudui raised an eyebrow. "Let's talk about it."

"Born in yin and yang, the world is clear and turbid. Although the water and fire are incompatible between right and evil, they are inseparable and indispensable in the end." Chu Xi's eyebrows were lightly condensed, and a line of sigh was inadvertently poured out. I value the power of martial arts quite a lot, from the support and solicitation during the period of the Gaozu to the fear of the emperor's embarrassment and suppression. Nowadays, Chu Ziyu intends to use decentralization as the appearance and control. "

Shen Wuduan said: "Blocking is worse than sparse, killing is worse than controlling; retreating behind the scenes, turning the light into the dark ... It seems to split the connection with the rivers and lakes, in fact nailed the wedge to the vital place, it is calculated. Presumably he Staring at the Hundred Ghost Gate is not a matter of two days a day. "

To master a chess piece, you must first ensure that the chess piece is not in the position of any party, and there are not many powerful and neutral martial arts in the rivers and lakes, and the Baiguimen is second to none.

Thinking of this, he looked up to Chu Xiwei, with an unclear meaning: "I took you back then, and I was really asking for trouble."

Chu Xiwei was not annoyed. He just sorted out the chess pieces slowly and said, "However, my righteous father should be happy now that I am in trouble."

"Your personality, once you let go of the past, will not go back, and he will no longer allow you to return to the court with all your minions. Since that is the case, you are my righteous son who has been raised for ten years, or a ghost door. Of course, I am happy for this new master. "Shen Wuduan reached out to help him pick the chess pieces, and the corner of his mouth twitched," You are young and vigorous, and you have the ambition of Ling Yun. Naturally, it ’s not to be a dead ghost that ca n’t be seen forever ... but rivers and lakes, and temples, you have to guard against the end of the bird ’s bow, so you have to remember how you won this game today. "

Chu Xi's eyes moved slightly, with ironic words: "Of course ... leaving a line for others to live, so that they can meet each other for a long time."

Shen Wuduan palmed and laughed: "Well, Ruzi can be taught too!"

After putting the chess pieces back, Shen Wuduan stood up and took a pluck at Chu Weixi, saying, "I am in a good mood today, come and practice with me, loosen my muscles."

Chu Xiwei wanted to fight Shen Wuduan seriously for a long time, but apart from the teaching of a little time, since four years ago, Shen Wuduan treated him mostly indulgently and rarely taught himself.

Now that Chu Xiwei is stuck at the peak of the sixth level of "Qilu Jing", Shen Wuduan has already reached his level. He eagerly wants to let Shen Wuduan go for a fight before he can touch his key.

Hearing the words, Chu Xiwei rarely flashed the war intentions in his eyes, and got up and said, "Then, please ask your righteous father for advice."
