The rivers and lakes ask the heart but not the way

The blind mother-in-law looked up to the sky and laughed loudly, and the sound shook the bamboo forest. Tears flowed from Lao Ku's eyes, covering his face with blood, like two lines of eye-catching red tears.

She and Wu Shuangzi faced each other with four palms, and it took less than half an hour to transmit all the internal energy of 60 years.They both belong to the Qingcheng sect, and their internal energy and mind are the same, and when they are passed on, they will get twice the result with half the effort.

Wu Gezi's temples are bulging high, his eyes are shining brightly, internally and externally, bright and deep.

The blind mother-in-law took her last breath while hanging, and slowly recovered.When did the evil fate of her life start?Oh, I remembered, a figure of the chief character appeared in front of her eyes...

"Auntie, Auntie," he ran from the stone path, his face flushed with anxiety, "is what brother said true?"

"How many times have I told you to call Master," she always said coldly, "What did senior brother say?"

"Huashan sent here to propose, saying that my aunt...Master is going to marry Huashan!"

"Nonsense!" She was moody, and the only one who dared to talk to her like this was this apprentice. "Disrespectful! Pull up your trousers."

He knew she was going to hit her calf, and he was so happy when he was hit for the first time.

She didn't hit hard.

He raised his face and said seriously: "Master, don't marry someone else. When I grow up, I will marry you."

As soon as the words fell, the bamboo stick hit his calf hard, leaving a blood-red streak every time, "Ouch! Ouch!" He screamed and jumped...

The blind mother-in-law swallowed her last breath, thinking, if she knew he was a liar, she should have hit him harder...

Wu Shuangzi and Seventeenth Young Master stayed by the blind mother's dead body for three days and three nights, and on the fourth day, they buried her according to the ceremony.Wu Shuangzi untied the male and female dragon and tiger swords from his waist, placed them beside her, knelt down and covered them with loess.

The tomb is also a sword tomb.

He practiced fast swords, but he has been using an epee.This heaviness that is not suitable for him should be returned to its original owner.

Afterwards, Wu Shuangzi treated Seventeenth Young Master's wounds, and the internal injuries from that palm were finally healed, and Seventeenth Young Master's face was no longer sick.

Without the epee on his body, coupled with his full internal strength, Wu Shuangzi even walked a lot easier, and every step was breezy.

Since the two men recovered, they never slept together again.

While admiring the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers, the two walked along the Xiangjiang River, talking and laughing all the way, and the Seventeenth Young Master seemed to have returned to the past, frivolous and free and easy.Most of the time, they can rush to the town to stay in the inn, drink a glass of wine to relieve the fatigue of the journey; occasionally sleep in the grass, grab a rabbit or pheasant and roast it golden; sometimes they lead the horse and walk in the morning breeze, chatting endlessly Endless topics; Sometimes riding a horse gallops in the valley of the setting sun, the road under the feet extends to the rolling mountains...

On this day, they came to a big river, which should be a tributary of the Xiangjiang River. The autumn water came, and the river was wide and swift.The two walked slowly along the gravel river beach, Shi Qi Shao took a leaf and blew it, and the horseshoe made a crisp and leisurely kicking sound on the gravel.

Beside a big rock in front, there was a group of women's laughter mixed with the sound of hammering clothes. There were large and small wooden basins on the rocky beach, filled with colorful clothes and sheets to be washed.

It looks like they don’t look like girls from the Han family. Their freshly washed long hair is tied in a bun on the top of their heads. And all red.

One of the girls kept turning her head and staring at Wu Shuangzi. She hammered a five-color embroidered apron repeatedly in her hand. She hammered it directly on the stone several times. Her dark and curious eyes were bright. It is rare to see such an extraordinary man from the Central Plains, tall and straight like a camphor, and as elegant as a white cloud.

Now the Seventeenth Young Master was not happy, he spit out the leaves in his mouth, reined in the reins, pinched the horse's belly, inserted into the line of sight, received the curious gaze from Wu Shuangzi, and smiled on his own The appearance is very charming, and he winks and smiles at the girl, full of flair.

The girl's heart skipped a beat, and as soon as she let go, the colorful embroidered apron was washed away by the river.

She hurried to fish it, but the apron was swept to the center of the river by the rapids, and she couldn't reach it anyway.This was part of the wedding gown she sewed for herself, and it took several nights to embroider it. The sisters kept praising how beautiful it was, and she stamped her feet and was about to cry in annoyance.

Three branches were thrown into the river, a pair of black boots flew to the center of the lake by lighting the branches, a kite turned over, picked up the apron, and flew back to the shore by lighting the branches again.All the movements are done in one go in an instant, because the water flow is very fast, and if there is a slight delay, the branches will be washed away.

Before the girl could see what was going on, the Seventeenth Young Master had already handed the apron to her with a smile.

Happy and shy, she took the apron, almost as if she was grabbing it, and twisted around while clutching it tightly, and said sweetly, "Thank you."

The Seventeenth Young Master turned back on his horse triumphantly, and raised his eyebrows at Wu Shuangzi, with infinite flair.

Wu Shuangzi looked at him with a smile, his eyes were almost doting.Of course he knew that Seventeenth Young Master was playing handsome and flirting with girls. This was the usual style of Seventeenth Young Master, so he just wanted to be happy.

In the evening, they entered a Miao village, where the girls wore shiny silver ornaments on their heads and pleated skirts embroidered with blue appliqués.Occasionally there are some Han people on the street, probably because the stockade itself is located in a traffic hub and trades frequently.

The market along the road was very lively, selling all kinds of lanterns, floral cloths, incense candles, sweet-scented osmanthus wine, and moon cakes—the two of them saw the moon cakes, and then remembered that today is the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The Seventeenth Young Master looked up, and saw that the moon had just risen, and it was already full of yellow and clear, bright and bright, and even the sweet-scented osmanthus tree inside could be seen clearly.

He asked Wu Shuangzi: "How did you spend the Mid-Autumn Festival before?"

If Young Master Shi Qi hadn't asked him, Wu Shuangzi would have almost forgotten Mount Qingcheng. "Appreciate the moon and eat moon cakes with Master and Junior Brothers."

"It sounds a bit boring," the Seventeenth Young Master commented sincerely, "How can you enjoy the moon without wine? Let's go and buy wine."

Wu Shuangzi followed Seventeen Young Masters to the wine shop, and the Miao girl who sells wine immediately recognized them with her dark eyes, and said happily, "It's you!"

"Ha, what a coincidence!" Seventeenth Young Master also recognized her, it was the girl washing the apron. "Let's buy wine and drink it while watching the moon."

"Where are you going to watch the moon?" Her Chinese has a slight accent, but her words are clear and her voice is pleasant.

"The tallest building."

"The best place to enjoy the moon is not upstairs, but in the middle of the water." She looked at Shiqi Shao, her cheeks were reddish, and her eyes were bright. "Thank you for helping me during the day. From here, ten miles west, There is a wild lake, and there is a large boat tied under the banyan tree by the lake, I will lend you the boat to watch the moon." After speaking, he gave some instructions to the kitchen, and after a while, he took out a basket of cooked vegetables and two jars of wine, "I'll drink it when you watch the moon. This wine is a famous wine in the Central Plains. It's so strong! Only these two jars are left."

"What wine?"

"Three bowls are not enough!"
