Messenger of Bliss

With no wind and no moon, Shen Ruogu sat alone in the quiet gazebo, staring blankly at the dark sky covered by overcast clouds for a while, fingertips touching the long sword on the stone table, as if thinking, It seems to be talking to himself.

"The avenue is like the blue sky, I can't figure out... what's behind it?"

He lowered his head, and slowly brushed the blade of the refracted sword with his palm, and smiled wryly twice.

His father died of illness a year ago. Whether his only son likes it or not, he is destined to become the next generation head of the Shen family. He has almost no choice but to be loyal, filial, benevolent, trustworthy and devoted.

Only with Shen Xiangnan, can he enjoy himself in a timely manner without any scruples.

But now, even that person betrayed him. After carrying everything alone, he was abandoned by everyone.

"To be happy in life is to have fun, don't make Jin Zun empty to...Huh? There is no moon...hahaha..."

Half a catty of daughter's red intestines were pierced, Shen Ruogu laughed indulgently, and cried indulgently, with a "bang", he slammed his head on the table, and he slipped to the ground like a puddle of mud. Huang Liang.

"Tutu, hurry up, let's go!"

Heitu flew down from the roof of the pavilion with Bai Yan's soft and boneless waist on his shoulders, and put him on a stone bench. Who knew that as soon as he let go, his whole body collapsed, and he was about to fall to the ground. But Bai Qian hurriedly yelled: "Alas, this body is not good! Tutu, give me a hand!"

Heitu strode away, directly pulled him into his arms, and sat on the stool instead.When Bai Qiang realized it, he was already comfortably enjoying the human cushion, leaning against someone's chest.

"Don't move."

"Oh." Bai Yan pursed his lips, and suddenly his eyes lit up, "Wow! He really deserves to be a noble family who forges swords for the royal family. Fan Yue has achieved this kind of virtue, and this kid actually has a classy daughter, Hong He."

He hurriedly picked up the jar of wine and shook it, grinning knowingly, "I'm so hungry!" He impatiently sipped it, and handed it to Heitu generously, "Ha! It's so cool! Here, Butcher."

"Don't drink."

"It's boring." Bai Yan rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "Then I'll drink it all up!"

Heitu snatched the jar from his mouth with one hand, and threw it to the side casually, the sweet wine splashed all over the ground, and the pottery clay knocked on the hard bluestone slab, giving off a crisp echo of being smashed to pieces.

"No."

"You...you...you..." Bai Yan stammered angrily, glaring at him angrily, "what are you doing!"

"This body can't drink alcohol."

"Huh! If you don't drink, then drink it...wasteful!" The man said it was reasonable, so Bai Yan could only twist his buttocks, stretch his neck and try his best to smell the lingering fragrance left on the ground, until his arm was almost broken, and then he started to drink again. Distressed and unwilling, he retracted his head, and hung it listlessly, "Tutu, I want to drink..."

Heitu hummed lightly, he was careful not to fall, and gently supported him, but his eyes wandered to the sword on the table, "Good sword."

Bai Yan sniffed, "Nonsense, it's a family heirloom!"

Heitu's face was full of "How do you know?" Bai Yan smiled triumphantly, "After entering Shen Xiangnan's body, his memory will empathize with me, maybe Shen Ruogu told him about it." .”

"memory?"

"Yeah." Bai sneered and sighed, "Fatality tricks people, holding on to the last breath, and didn't wait for the person he was thinking of. He..."

Heitu suddenly covered his mouth, "I don't want to."

"Woooo..."

Bai Yan patted his hand, Heitu let go, and looked at the sword again, "This sword has spirituality."

"Yes. It's a pity that Shen Ruogu doesn't have one."

"Want to see it?"

"Look at what?"

Heitu held his hand and touched the sharp point of the sword, Bai Qiang opened his mouth in shock, "How...how did you do it?"

"It is willing to accept me."

"That's it."

Bai Qian slapped his forehead excitedly, and Heitu looked at his unknowing little movements, and couldn't help but squeeze his arms a little tighter.Even if you change a pair of skins, the Fanyu is the Fanyu, and the only thing that will not change is the Fanyu.

"Tutu! Tutu! Tutu!"

Heitu came back to his senses, and raised his eyebrows mockingly, "Stupid again?"

"fine."

Bai sneered, "Look!"

Shen Xiangnan won't bend his eyebrows when he smiles, and Shen Xiangnan won't pout his lips when he's surprised, but he will, Heitu thought.

I don't know if the image in front of me is real or not, Bai Qiang looked closely, he seemed to be far away from the gazebo, and he was in a scorching iron workshop, the light of the fire mixed with the white smoke, Bai Qiang shrunk subconsciously into Heitu's arms.

"They can't see you."

"he is…"

The shirtless young man knelt in front of the muscular old man and shook his head heavily, "Master, please accept me as an apprentice and teach me the art of swordsmithing!"

After the old man hit the last piece of iron in his hand, the sizzling sound disappeared, and the noisy environment fell silent in an instant, only the flames were still faintly fluttering.

"You have been kneeling for five days without eating or drinking, do you understand?"

"I understand."

"Why do you want to forge swords? Is it for the merits of generations? Or to expand the territory? Do you want to be an emperor?"

Regardless of the ridicule, the young man looked at the old man earnestly, "Keep the right way."

"Hahaha..." The old man coughed twice with laughter, "How can a broken sword be righted? It's never the weapon that kills or saves, but the hand that holds them."

The young man's lips were drawn into a thin slit. He took a deep breath and said in a loud voice: "With sincerity, gold and stone are opened. Basalt stone has this spirituality. If the sword holder is bright and upright, it will be infinitely powerful. It is no different from scrap copper and rotten iron. As you said, the sword of Xuanwu is just a ruler and a mirror to measure whether a person sticks to his heart. What I want to create is never a sword, but myself! As long as it can still be used by me one day, it proves that my innocent heart has not been wiped out, and I still have at least a little bit of merit in me."

He spoke very quickly, the old man was silent for a while, then Youyou stood up, "It's ridiculous..."

Only then did Bai Qian realize that he was walking with a limp. Standing in front of a rusty long sword, he said in a deep voice as if he was condolences to an old friend: "Once upon a time, it was the fastest sword in the world, and it was the fastest sword in the world. Tianya...until I am no longer me and it dies..."

He turned his head and waved at the young man, "If you can pull it out of the scabbard, I will accept you."

The young man was overjoyed, kneeling for too long, he almost stumbled when he got up, but he still walked over as fast as he could, wrapping his palm around the hilt of his sword, his eyes like torches were full of candid enthusiasm.

The sword is out of its sheath.

The old man looked up to the sky and laughed loudly, then stopped abruptly, and his whole face returned to the calm and prestige look.He said, "Kneel down!"

The young man knelt down immediately, and the old man rolled up his trousers, pointed to his twisted, shriveled, scarred calf, and said calmly: "The beauty and kindness in the world are vain and fragile. One blow. Justice is the most bitter thing in life. If one is not careful, he offends the power and dies, or if he is not firm, he poisons his original intention and becomes a sad person like them. Punishing evil and promoting good requires not only courage, but also endless The perseverance and perseverance, this process is miserable..." He stared at the young man and paused every word, "Even so, do you still want to uphold justice?"

Without thinking, the young man replied sonorously: "I want it!"

A smile appeared on the old man's face again. He lifted the young man up and looked at the sword that had been with him for decades. "I don't have anything valuable for my teacher. This sword... I gave it to you."

"Master..."

The old man waved his hand, indicating that he didn't need to say anything, "There is leftovers in the kitchen, you can heat some up yourself, I'm tired."

"Yes."

The old man smiled and walked away slowly.When he reached the door, his footsteps faltered, "May you remain so innocent until your death."

Holding the sword given to him by his master in both hands, the young man nodded with tears in his eyes, "I will."

"That sword is..." Bai Yan turned his head and blinked at Heitu, "Shen Ruogu's?"

"It's his ancestor."

"Sure enough, one generation is not as good as one generation." Bai Yan smacked his lips, "The ancestors were ambitious, ambitious and hard-working. The descendants gave up helping the world and saving the people, and entered the imperial court as sword masters, rushing to glory and wealth. Ruogu's generation has simply become a worthless wretch who complains about everything else! Oh, what a pity for this sword made of basalt stone."

"Ah."

Bai Yan thought of something, and smiled meaningfully at Heitu, "Huh?"

"how?"

"Jue Mingzong, you are the most villainous person in the world, why is this sword willing to accept you?"

"I'm not."

"I don't think you are either." Bai Qian stretched his waist and arched his body, "You are the most good person in the world."

"I'm not."

"Whatever." Bai Yan rubbed his eyes, "Oh? Why is it gone? I haven't seen enough yet!"

Heitu couldn't help saying, and carried him back to the top of the pavilion, "Someone is here."

"People?" Bai Yan listened intently, and sure enough, he heard the sound of footsteps not far away, and exclaimed: "Really! There are not many people! Are there people from the government?"

"People from the imperial family." Heitu looked towards the courtyard, "Here we come."

So Bai Qian just watched the uniform officers and soldiers pouring in, the leader poured a bucket of cold well water on Shen Ruogu, Shen Ruogu shivered, and opened his eyes drunkenly, "Who is it? ..."

"Shen Ruogu, the royal family has entrusted the lifeblood of the country to you, but you have disregarded the country's system, indulged in smokey streets and willow alleys all day long, and neglected your duties! You are not good at making swords, you disobeyed the grace of the gods, you offended the gods, and your life was ruined. You have committed a heinous crime! You Capture him and bring him back to justice, and die tomorrow with a sword on the top of the Yin Mountain to calm the anger and grievances." After he finished speaking, he didn't care whether Shen Ruogu woke up or not, and waved his hand behind him, "Take him away!"

Shen Ruogu was shackled and shackled in a daze like this, and was dragged away.This Shen family's gazebo, I'm afraid no one will care about it again.

"Oh, the injustice of the raspberries."

"You want to save him?"

"Save?" Seemingly surprised that Heitu would have such an idea, he sneered, "The whole world is born to be cruel. Even if the gods spread the gospel, they can't educate the ignorant masses. The process of human awakening is so long. If the lifespan is exceeded, I may have to suffer the baptism of blood and rain, I can't encourage the seedlings to grow, do you understand?"

"Save him. No, save all sentient beings."

"I've grown up!" Bai Qian looked up at the dim sky, "But I'm no longer a god." He curled his lips, "Even if it's not to save him, I still have to find him."

"Ah."

"It will be er er er, can't you say a few more words?" Bai Yan squeezed Heitu's cheek hard, "The task entrusted to me by Shen Xiangnan has not been completed yet!"

"Walk."

"Okay." Bai Yan climbed up to his neck with ease, "Is it tiring to hug two big men like this?"

"He is very light." Heitu paused, "You are also... very light."

"So that's how it is." Bai sneered, put his shoulder on his shoulder, and said softly: "Jue Mingzong, that slave's respect is worse than obedience!"

Heitu was grateful for this dark and windy night, he hesitated for a moment, he didn't know how to respond other than the usual "um".
