Chapter 7

Xi Cang decided to put more effort into sword practice in the future. Although the master is powerful, but his body is sick, and his skills sometimes disappear. If he is not good at that time, who can protect the master!

The master is very good-looking, and I don't know how many hooligans coveted him on the way to Suzhou. Although the master is beautiful, it is far from the softness of a woman. He is clearly a man, but those bastards still want to beat the master. This idea puzzled his unenlightened mind, but his subordinates didn't show any sympathy, and severely taught those immoral guys a lesson.Fortunately, when he arrived in Suzhou, Master would not go out any more, which also made him heave a sigh of relief.

After lunch, Xi Cang practiced sword for a while, but he still couldn't figure out the tricks, the sword moves were exactly the same, but the power was so much worse than that of his master, or did he practice it wrong at all?After all, this sword technique was only learned by himself, and his master never taught him anything.After pondering for a long time, he couldn't find a solution, hesitated and hesitated, and finally he took the courage to decide to ask the master.

"Master, is my swordsmanship not practiced correctly? Why can't the internal force be fully integrated with the sword move?"

Xi Qing slowly opened her eyes, looked at the cautious person in front of her, and said coldly after a while, "The time has not yet come."

Not yet?Xi Cang frowned in confusion, "Master, does that mean that my time to practice swords is too short?"

Xi Qing shifted her misty eyes to the window, "You hour is almost here."

Xi Cang knew it was time to go out, but he didn't know why Master asked him to meet the number one beauty in Suzhou, "Master, what should I do when I see Hua Ruomeng?"

Xi Qing said after a while, "Let her fall in love with you."

Xi Cang turned pale with shock, "Why?"

Xi Qing closed her eyes and said nothing.

Youshi, Meiying Bieyuan.

When Xi Cang came, there were already two girls waiting at the gate of Bieyuan, one of them was the girl with the sword from yesterday, named Cuizhu.The other girl was also dressed in green, but she was a little older than Cuizhu who looked only sixteen or seventeen years old, and her name was Ziqiao.

When Cuizhu saw someone, she hugged her sword and snorted, "If you come a moment later, you will come again next year!" She was ordered to wait at the door for a while, but because of the cold weather, she inevitably got a little angry.

Ziqiao laughed and scolded her for not understanding the rules, and then blessed Xi Cang, "My girl has been waiting in the plum garden for a long time, my lord, please come with your slaves." After finishing speaking, she made a gesture of invitation, and led the people to go Go in the direction of Meiyuan.

At this time, the sky was getting dark, lights were already lit everywhere in the Bieyuan, and all the way to the downstairs of the Plum Appreciation Pavilion in the plum grove.The attic is even more brightly lit, and there is a faint melodious sound of a stringed piano flowing from upstairs, like a fairy song from heaven, which makes people intoxicated and fascinated.

"The girl is in the attic, the young master will go up by himself." Zi Qiao said and wanted to leave.

But Cuizhu gave Xi Cang a sideways look, and said in a bad mood, "Hey, let me remind you, don't hit our girl casually, otherwise..." She drew her sword an inch, and threatened, "I will definitely not let you off .”

Ziqiao gave her a popcorn and apologized to Xi Cang, "Cuizhu is young, don't bother with her, the girl has been waiting for a long time, so hurry up!" Pearl left.

Xi Cang hesitated for a moment, stepped forward and opened the door to enter.The inside of the house is very warm, and the surroundings are also very elegantly decorated, and the walls are covered with calligraphy and paintings with different inscriptions.After ten years in the mountains, although Xi Cang could still read, he didn't know how to appreciate it.After closing the door, he searched for the stairs to go up to the second floor.

The second floor is surrounded by gauze curtains, separated by crystal curtains one after another, and the air is still filled with an intoxicating incense that seems to be absent.Xi Cang looked into the depths of the room through several crystal curtains, and only vaguely saw a beautiful figure playing the piano. He raised his foot to enter, but suddenly remembered the words of the master.He hesitated for a while, not knowing whether to advance or retreat. Why did the master ask him to do this?Frowning, his mind was troubled, but he didn't know what to do.

The sound of the piano suddenly stopped, and a soft voice said, "Since the young master is here, why do you hesitate?"

Xi Cang was slightly surprised, "How do you know I'm hesitating?"

The curtain chuckled, "Young master's footsteps told the servants."

Xi Cang calmed down, stretched out his hand and opened the crystal curtains one after another, and finally saw the legendary No. [-] beauty in Suzhou, Hua Ruomeng.

A beauty is indeed beautiful, as gorgeous and luxurious as a peony, not as cold and beautiful as the master.

Hua Ruomeng had a good time and let him look around, but he saw a lonely expression on his face after watching her. It was the first time that this happened. Those men who had seen her before were all amazed and praised. To boast that there is nothing in the sky is nothing on earth.This person is handsome, young, but has a calmness that is different from people of the same age.

Hua Ruomeng couldn't help being curious about him, she raised her hand and signaled, "Sir, please sit down."

Xi Cang graciously sat down on the brocade futon opposite her.

Hua Ruomeng stretched out her slender hands, took out a small jug of warm fine wine from the small stove next to it, poured out a glass and handed it over, "This is green plum wine brewed by my own family, young master, please try it."

Xi Cang took a sip, "Slightly sour, slightly sweet, the taste is very special." He told the truth without any compliments.

Hua Ruomeng's affection for him couldn't help adding another point, "You are really different from them."

"who are they?"

"They have been my guests here before."

Xi Cang frowned slightly when he thought of the rumors about her and Master's advice.

Hua Ruo dreamed, and calmly poured another glass of wine for him, "Do you know why I invite you to drink this green plum wine, my lord?"

"Why?"

Hua Ruomeng smiled with infinite flair, "Because young master is at such an age, just like this green plum wine, it makes people feel slightly sour and slightly sweet."

"Then would you like someone my age?"

Hua Ruomeng was slightly stunned, and then smiled and said, "I like it, why don't I like it, young master's age is full of vigor, and my slaves will also have the illusion of going back in time, although it's just an illusion, but which woman in the world doesn't want her stay young forever."

Xi Cang picked up the wine glass and drank it down, "If this wine is drunk in summer, it should be more delicious."

Hua Ruomeng praised, "Master, you are right. Green plum wine will be more refreshing if you drink it chilled in summer." She took out a new jug of wine from the small stove and poured it for Xi Cang, "Mr. Try this again."

Xi Cang took a sip as he said, "Cough... this wine... tastes weird."

Hua Ruomeng smiled and took a piece of pastry for him, Fang said, "This wine is called Tusu, and it is a seasonal wine, which is good for temperature and yang, and has the effect of dispelling wind and cold."

"Festival wine?"

"New Year's Eve is coming soon. On such a day of family reunion, the whole family will drink Tusu wine together, just like everyone will drink realgar wine during the Dragon Boat Festival."

"Then why do you want to drink this Tusu wine with me?"

"From what you say, you don't seem to be from Suzhou. The year is approaching, so you don't have to go home?"

Xi Cang's face darkened, "I have no family."

"The same people who have fallen in the end of the world." Hua Ruomeng leaned over and poured another cup for Xi Cang, "Since this is the case, I will have to drink a cup of Tusu with the young master." I didn't ask the young master about Gao's name."

Xi Cang said, "My surname is Xi, and my first name is Cang."

Hua Ruomeng stopped pouring the wine, and suddenly raised her head to look at Xi Cang, "...Your Master's surname is Xi?"

Xi Cang saw that her expression was different, and he couldn't help feeling a little doubt in his heart, "My surname is indeed Xi, what's wrong?"

Hua Ruomeng came back to her senses, but the wine glass was already overflowing, she quickly put down the sprinkler, and said with a concealed smile, "Sorry, I lost my composure for a while."

Xi Cang originally doubted her relationship with the master. Seeing her behavior, he knew there must be something hidden in it. He opened his mouth to ask, but remembered that the master did not allow any news about him to be mentioned, so he could only ask insincerely, "Miss seems What's the secret?"

"No! No, it's not..." Hua Ruomeng retorted intuitively, but found that she was powerless to refute, and her smile was not as calm as before, even a little forced, "It's just... I suddenly remembered a friend."

"What friend?"

Hua Ruomeng was a little confused, she drank the cup, "It's nothing, it happened many years ago, don't mention it." She stood up after speaking, "I'm sorry, I suddenly feel a little unwell, so I won't accompany you. Already, son, please go back."

Xi Cang got up and saw that she was about to leave, so he hurriedly said, "Can I still come tomorrow?"

"What are you doing here?"

"drink wine."

"Wouldn't it be better to go to the tavern?"

"You're not there."

Hua Ruomeng looked back lightly, looked at him carefully again without blinking her eyes, but shook her head, "It's not like, not at all." She turned and left with a murmur.

Xi Cang followed closely, "You haven't answered me yet."

"If you are willing to wait, just wait for my news."

Xi Cang watched her leave, but it was hard to catch up. After a while, Ziqiao came to see her off again. Before leaving, Xi Cang left an address with her, saying that he would wait for news.

After this, Xi Cang was sure that Hua Ruomeng must have some kind of connection with the master, otherwise she would not have lost her composure just by hearing the surname, but why was the master unwilling to reveal his identity?Seeing that she is about the same age as Master, could it be...they were lovers?Xi Cang was startled, but after thinking about it again, he felt that something was wrong. If it was a lover, why would the master make such a request to him?Or were they once enemies?But if it was an enemy, why did Master insist that she fall in love with him?

After much deliberation, Xi Cang couldn't figure out the reason for this, so Xi Cang returned to the small courtyard where he lived full of worries.

The small courtyard was pitch black, and there were no lights in the house, and it was unknown if Master had fallen asleep.

Gently pushed open the door, came to the inner room, saw a black figure lying on the bed, Xi Cang felt relaxed when he saw this, and then tightened again, Master was sleeping without a quilt.He stepped forward to cover Master with a quilt, but he touched his cold body without a trace of warmth.

"Master!" Xi Cang said in horror, "Master, wake up? Master!"
