summer thunderstorm

Time flies, time flies, five years later, on the mountain where there are few people and stars, the silent child who wields a long sword is now an astonishing young man.

Sword practice for two hours in the morning has been his unchanging habit for five years, but it's almost noon today and he hasn't stopped yet.The sun in the early summer was getting stronger day by day, and the master Xia Qiuyu who had come to dissuade him in the past has never shown up. This made his mood even less disturbed, the sword in his hand became more hasty, and the pine trees a little further away were also hit. , A large needle leaf was shaken off when the sword energy swept across.

"Okay, Lei'er, let's go in." Finally, when Luo Jinglei's impatience was about to explode, a person came out of the room and called him with a sigh.

Luo Jinglei turned back and looked back at him, still dressed in ice blue, a few bamboo leaves outlined with cyan silk threads for decoration, and a simple bundle of black hair, the gentle boy he met for the first time is already a gentle adult man like jade, but The innocence of 5 years ago has long faded to the calmness of 5 years later, but it is becoming more and more difficult for him to take his eyes off.

When Xia Qiuyu saw the young man in front of him, he just put away his sword and looked straight at him, but he didn't want to come over. He chuckled, knowing that he was stubborn again, so he had to go to him himself, and snatched the sword from his hand. He took his hand and went into the house.

There are some reasons why today is different from the past. In the past five years, the two masters and apprentices have never quarreled.

The men of Beichen Kingdom hold the crown ceremony at the age of 20, which means that they are adults, and they can get married after that. However, the royal family and nobles get married earlier, and it is not uncommon for them to become kings at the age of 15. Therefore, 15 years old is an extremely important age in the eyes of the royal family. .A few days ago, Xia Qiuyu had just celebrated Luo Jinglei's 15th birthday. He never thought that his father Xia Danfang would send someone to inquire about his marriage yesterday.

"I can't blame my father for this matter. He has never forgotten your identity as the sixth prince, so he will naturally come to ask. If you don't like it, just push it away. Father is not a person who doesn't know what to do. Why are you so stubborn with me?" Xia Qiuyu said. , and handed him a list from his father.

Luo Jinglei took the list without looking at it, and threw it far away, saying: "Master just push it for me."

Xia Qiuyu didn't bother to pick it up, and thought to herself, father has always done things properly, but this time he was really in a hurry. Lei'er had just tied her hair, and she had never seen any of these women in the mountains all year round. How could she like it? His father picked it, and he was also worried.

"Let's let go of this in advance. I will write back and tell my father in a while."

"kindness."

One thought about how to reply to the letter, one just looked at the other carefully, and was speechless for a while, Xia Qiuyu came back to his senses after a long while, and found that Luo Jinglei was looking at him like this again, from the initial scolding "fool" "I'm used to it now, so I just confessed: "I haven't been to Mr. He's place for a long time, and Xiang Chen and Xiaohu must have missed you too. Today, I will go down the mountain to live at Mrs. Sun's house for a few days, just to relax."

Luo Jinglei seldom refuted his arrangement, nodded in agreement, and then went down the mountain after lunch.

Since He Shuyun brought people to live in the village, the village has been quite lively. Three years ago, Old Master Zhou stopped teaching because of his poor health. In a way, the people in the village have long since lost their grudges against him, and now they are very happy to see their children are smarter and studious, and they respectfully call him Master.Both of Xia Qiuyu and him kept their agreement very well. When they went down the mountain on weekdays, Luo Jinglei, He Xiangchen and Sun Xiaohu would learn from He Shuyun. If this is the case, the friendship between the three children with the best qualifications in the village is also very deep. As the master who often plans for Luo Jinglei in the future, Xia Qiuyu is quite satisfied with these two people, and I believe that they will also be Luo Jinglei in the future. A big help for Jinglei.

The two of them went down the mountain in the afternoon, and the one who was happiest was Aunt Sun. Xia Qiuyu and He Shuyun had transformed the empty rooms into study rooms and conference rooms, and a large space in the backyard had also been transformed into a private competition venue. As soon as it came, Aunt Sun's house became much more lively. After Xia Qiuyu brought Luo Jinglei down the mountain, everyone liked to rush here, and Aunt Sun naturally welcomed it very much.

"Master Xia and Master Lei are back!" Nie Mingyuan, who was the first to see them, was also very happy, and just after saying hello, he shouted to Aunt Sun who was not far away, "Ma'am, Mr. Xia and the others are back!"

Everyone in the village knew about this voice, and they came to say hello one after another. Xia Qiuyu responded with a smile, gentle and kind.

Aunt Sun hurried over, she was already in her thirties, but she still had charm, really counting, except for those green girls, everyone could compare with her, even Nie Mingyuan was also favored by him. attracted to the past.

"Okay, okay, it's not too late for everyone to let you go and have a rest first, and then come out. I think you will stay for a few days this time." Aunt Sun waved the crowd away, and then said to Nie Mingyuan: "Hurry up and clean up the house. tidy."

Nie Mingyuan giggled, his resolute face was a little funny, he was willing to be used by Aunt Sun, but it turned out that the two of them had been hired by He Shuyun himself a year ago with the dowry gift, so that the two lonely families could get together and live together. It's been very fulfilling for so long.Xia Qiuyu was also very satisfied with Aunt Sun's and Nie Mingyuan's marriage, and she had a hand in it. After all, she was a very good woman to herself, and she finally had a good destination.

Xia Qiuyu and Luo Jinglei each had a room in Aunt Sun's house, but they were used to sleeping together after they fell asleep together, so they never separated them. When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, he was going to live separately from Luo Jinglei. Knowing that Luo Jinglei disagreed, he, who has always pampered and indulged his disciples, had to put aside Luo Jinglei's vacant room, and the two have not separated yet.

As soon as the two of them packed up and hadn't rested yet, Sun Xiaohu rushed over with He Xiangchen.Sun Xiaohu originally wanted to change his original surname to Nie Ming, and Sun Xiaohu was not unwilling, but just not used to it, so He Shuyun thought of a compromise and named Sun Xiaohu Nie Jingming, but he was still called Xiaohu on weekdays. , Wait until you become an adult and then change your mouth.

"Brother Jinglei, are you free? Xiang Chen said he wants to compete with you!" He heard Sun Xiaohu shouting from afar.It's just that as soon as he finished speaking, another voice said: "Little Tiger, don't talk nonsense, it's because you can't beat me that you come to Jinglei for support."

When Xia Qiuyu heard about it, seeing Luo Jinglei's usual appearance, he laughed secretly, and told him to go quickly, while he went to discuss things with He Shuyun himself.

***

In fact, in Luo Jinglei's heart, Xia Qiuyu is naturally placed in the highest position, followed by the two people in front of him - He Xiangchen and Nie Jingming (hereinafter referred to as Sun Xiaohu as Nie Jingming). Practicing martial arts and practicing swords, years of friendship, even though he is indifferent, he still accepts these two people standing by his side as friends.

In the martial arts arena, the three little friends who had just met had a great time fighting. Luo Jinglei looked resolute in martial arts, and he was fast, accurate and ruthless when he held his sword; There is a sense of chic and chic; Nie Jingming's body is not as good as theirs, and his learning is naturally not as high as theirs. A thin thread is wrapped around his wrist, and he is dexterous and changeable when he strikes.The three have their own strengths due to their different habits. After all, Luo Jinglei is better at martial arts. It gradually evolved into why Xiang Chen and Nie Jingming joined forces to attack Luo Jinglei. They are far inferior to him, and the more time passes, they will definitely lose to Luo Jinglei.Sure enough, they fought each other for a while, and Luo Jinglei's sword finally won. Afterwards, the three of them were so tired that they sat on the ground casually, dripping with joy.

"What's on Jinglei's mind?" He Xiangchen asked when he sat down to rest.

Among the three, He Xiangchen is the oldest, Nie Jingming is second, and Luo Jinglei is the youngest, but Nie Jingming was born thin and used to call Luo Jinglei his elder brother, so the two took care of Nie Jingming instead.

"Why do you ask that?" Luo Jinglei looked at his friend, even though he was sitting on the ground like him, he felt that he was much more elegant.

He Xiangchen said with a smile: "It's been five years. I can't say I know you well, but I can say that I know you well. Although you are used to going all out and domineering moves in martial arts competitions, it is rare to see such moves that contain the meaning of venting like today. .”

As soon as he finished speaking, Nie Jingming also echoed: "That's true, Brother Jinglei, if there is something bothering you, you can tell us, we won't tell others!"

"..." Luo Jinglei didn't expect that all his changes were in the eyes of his friends, so he said: "Thank you, I have nothing else to do, but there is one thing in my heart that I haven't figured out yet, and others can't help me."

Hearing what he said, the two felt relieved, after all, the most stable of them was Luo Jinglei.The three of them talked about today's situation on the floor, and they returned to the house near the evening, and they also had dinner together at Aunt Sun's house.
