[Comprehensive martial arts] Gentle sword

In the beginning of spring in February, the three of them going north along the road passed through fields of snow. The master and servant of Baiyun City, who had never seen snow before, saw all the snow in their entire lives in just a few days, and they didn't want to watch it again.Miss Awan, who loves snow, also obediently stayed in the carriage wrapped into a big ball of hair, no longer interested in playing with snow.

Nianwu was puzzled and depressed after being reprimanded by Ye Gucheng, and even felt a little grievance in his heart, but Nianwu just didn't see any change in the relationship between the city lord and Miss Awan.

It seems that being said is not so wrong.

Twenty-five drove the carriage all the way on the official road and waved his long whip, but the two people in the carriage looked at each other speechlessly and the atmosphere was very silent.

Sitting in the carriage of the lord of Baiyun City will naturally not be too bad.Nianwu specially chose this carriage. Although the interior of the carriage was not luxurious, it was warm and spacious. It was so spacious that there was a coffee table and fruit plate between the two of them, and Xie Wan could still sit far away from Ye Gucheng with half of her body vacant.

Seeing Xie Wan sitting upright, Ye Gucheng frowned, "Come over here."

Ye Gucheng's voice was not loud, Xie Wan closed her eyes, and leaned against the wall of the car to fall asleep, as if she didn't hear his words.Miss Xie didn't hear it, but she could hear the twenty-five outside clearly.

Ye Gucheng knew that this girl was used to posturing, so she straightened her thin lips and said in a cold tone: "I don't want to use a hand stove even if I have a hand stove. I just feel sick again after only a few days?"

Xie Wan had no choice but to open her eyes, moved to Ye Gucheng's side, and smiled with him, begging for forgiveness: "No way."

Ye Gucheng glanced at her, but did not comment on her words.

Passing the stove on the table to Xie Wan, Ye Gucheng said to Er Wu who was driving outside: "Nian Wu, walk slowly."

Twenty-five comprehended, and in response, he pulled the reins to slow down the speed of the carriage, so that the wind would blow slowly so as not to get into the carriage along the gap.The city lord has someone he likes, so it turned out to be like this.

Xie Wan was relieved to hear that Ye Gucheng told Erwu to drive slower.At this speed, going to Wanmei Villa is a bit slower.

Ye Gucheng didn't like Xie Wan's politeness and gentle alienation, but he couldn't change her determination, but after going back and forth, Ye Gucheng discovered a way to let Xie Wan take the initiative to break the silence she created.

Don't want to talk to him?

can.

"Twenty-five, hurry up. Get to Wanmei Villa as soon as possible."

Xie Wan turned to chat with City Lord Ye, and at the same time couldn't help feeling sulky, knowing that Ye Gucheng was right for him.

Xie Wan seldom suffers, but suffers repeatedly from Ye Gucheng.

Wanmei Villa lived up to its name. In the season of cold spring, warm and cold, there are red plums all over the mountains and plains.One by one, clusters are in full bloom, bright and beautiful but full of youth and pride.When they passed through Yanbei, they had a rest for one night.Yanbei is not far from Wanmei Villa, only half a day's journey, Xie Wan originally thought that the end point was close at hand, and Ye Gucheng would not stop there specially.

The closer he got to Wanmei Villa, Xie Wan found that Ye Gucheng was not really in a hurry, and he didn't really care if he saw Ximen Chuuxue during this trip.Instead, he always used this topic to stimulate her to see her reaction.Xie Wan felt that Ye Gucheng's attitude was not quite right a few times earlier, and originally thought it was because he fell in love with her.She thanked him for his kindness, respected his personality, and wanted to slowly alienate him.Xie Wan also believed that with Ye Gucheng's pride, he would not give up after seeing that it was just King Xiang's intention.

If not for this, or not only for this, but for something else.

Ye Gucheng's white clothes stood out among Wan Mei, Xie Wan walked behind him, looking at his tall and straight figure, he was a little dazed.

Not letting Twenty-Five go, Ye Gucheng knocked on the door himself.

The servant who opened the door was stunned for a while after seeing the white-clothed swordsman outside the door for the first time. The other party really looked like their owner Ximen Chuuxue.Not similar in shape, but similar in spirit.White clothes, long swords, these external things are all easy to imitate, but the most difficult thing is temperament and the most important sword intent of a swordsman.They really do look alike.

"You, you are..."

"Ye Gucheng, come to Ximen Chuuxue for a while."

The servant was shocked.The name of the lord of Baiyun City is taboo, and no one in the world knows it, but anyone who uses a sword will regard him as an opponent who can stand shoulder to shoulder in his life.The steward of Wanmei Villa came. When he saw Ye Gucheng, he advanced and retreated with apology: "The owner of the villa has heard your name for a long time. It's just that the owner of the villa just left a long time ago. If he knows, he will Definitely regret it."

When Ye Gucheng heard the words, he only said: "It's really like being in business with him."

Xie Wan was not far away, and after hearing the man's whisper, he didn't know whether to be thankful or feel sorry for him.

Ye Gucheng didn't ask, but the manager took the initiative to inform him of Ximen Chuuxue's whereabouts.

"The owner and his friend Lu Xiaofeng and Daxia Lu went to Shanxi together two days ago."

It took half a month, and finally only stayed in front of the gate of Wanmei Villa for a few quarters of an hour. When he went down the mountain, he asked Ye Gucheng: "City Lord, are you going to Shanxi next?"

The Lord Baiyun, who was walking ahead, did not respond with a single word.

Twenty-five couldn't help looking at Xie Wan beside him for help, hoping that Miss Awan would have a few words with the city lord, so as to know whether the city lord was unhappy because of it.Xie Wan just shook her head at Nian Wu, telling him not to mention it now.

They returned to Yanbei that night, and met Yanbei's Flower Festival again.This time, Xie Wan personally watched how Ye Gucheng told Nianwu that he could go to the market and temple fair for a while, and he and Xie Wan rested in the inn.Xie Wan also agreed, and Nianwu then left.

After Erwu left, the room was suddenly quiet.Seeing Ye Gucheng sitting quietly with downcast eyes, Xie Wan remembered that he didn't move his chopsticks much during dinner, so he thought that he was still not in a good mood because of the day's events.Returning to Yanbei, Xie Wan originally felt that things are right and people are wrong, but now she is thinking about how to comfort Ye Gucheng.

"I'll let Xiao Erduan bring you a few more dishes you like. You haven't eaten much for dinner." Xie Wan said, "You and Ximen Chuuxue will always have a chance to compete."

Xie Wan herself can't understand how much a person desires for an opponent.But she knows Ye Gucheng very well, he has been looking for such an opponent since he mastered the art of swordsmanship.

Xie Wan said in her heart, you will finally get your wish.

Xie Wan's words were ordinary, but Ye Gucheng knew from them that she was showing clarity.He wanted to treat her in a leisurely manner, and he would always know the truth in the end.But during this process, Ye Gucheng understood a truth, the girl Xie Wan would hide, and one day she no longer needed to stay by his side for some purpose, she would simply withdraw and leave.As she had done with other people a few times before.

Ye Gucheng didn't intend to let her get away with it.

"You really understand..." Ye Gucheng looked directly into Xie Wan's eyes and uttered a few words, "August [-]th."

Before the ending sound dissipated in the air, Ye Gucheng felt that his lips were suddenly pressed against the opponent's catkin.Everything in the world turned into silence, Ye Gucheng only felt his dry lips touch her cool palm, and kissed the lines of her palm unexpectedly.

Xie Wan's upper body leaned forward, her heart was beating extremely fast at the moment, what she did subconsciously was to cover Ye Gucheng's lips where she only said a few words.

Ye Gucheng raised his hand and held her hand that was covering his lips.

His eyes were not pitch black, but tens of thousands of stars were integrated into them, forming a quiet night of its own.Xie Wan saw her own reflection in these eyes.

Xie Wan put her other hand on her lips, and whispered to Ye Gucheng, "Hush."

What made her look so changed?Ye Gucheng stopped thinking deeply, and clenched the hand on Xie Wan's wrist, silently conveying his meaning to her.After a while, Xie Wan put down his hand covering Ye Gucheng's lips.

"can not say?"

Xie Wan shook her head: "I can't say it."

Hearing this, Ye Gucheng looked up at the night sky outside the window.Amidst the lights and celebrations of thousands of families, there is a pair of eyes watching everything in the world silently.

Seeing where his eyes fell, Xie Wan wondered whether she should sigh that Ye Gucheng guessed so much without her knowing it.Xie Wan only nodded slightly, acquiescing to Ye Gucheng's guess, his smile was gentle but cunning and helpless.

"I said I would die..."

Ye Gucheng frowned, then wrinkled severely.

"Then don't talk about it. I'll tell you, listen to me."

Every time Ye Gucheng asked a question, he thought it through carefully, and changed the words that the two of them understood others but looked at flowers in a fog.Xie Wan still didn't understand the reason for Ye Gucheng's abnormality in her eyes, she was shocked and had no choice but to accept it.Due to the restrictions of heaven, Xie Wan could not reveal any more information, and could only choose to nod or shake his head after Ye Gucheng asked.

This kind of groping for the answer through a layer of veil made slow progress, but it was enough for Ye Gucheng to figure out some things.

"Why are you following me?"

Ye Gucheng asked three questions before this, one is whether there are gods in the world;Xie Wan couldn't answer this last question by nodding and shaking her head, so she could only remain silent.

Ye Gucheng looked at her, and finally said: "That's it for today. Don't say words like 'death'." He didn't like to hear it.

Xie Wan's first words after a long interval: "Not going to Shanxi."

Ye Gucheng glanced back at her.

"it is good."

Early the next morning, Nian Wu asked, "City Master, where are we going next? But are we going back to Baiyun City?"

Ye Gucheng shook his head: "I won't go back for now."

Instead of going to Shanxi, they started heading south.

Xie Wan and Ye Gucheng are half talking now, there is no system around them, and Xie Wan doesn't know how to deal with this situation, but it is absolutely impossible to pretend to be stupid.Xie Wan simply let go of this layer of disguise.But except for that night, Ye Gucheng never asked Xie Wan about her identity and purpose of coming.

Different from the chill when going north, the weather gets warmer the further south you go.

"Are you going to Wudang?" Xie Wan asked in the carriage.

"Ah."

But before that, Ye Gucheng took Xie Wan to another place.

On the outskirts of Wuling Mountain, the carriage stopped, Xie Wan got out of the carriage, seeing the scenery of spring, she felt the carriage stopped in a peach blossom forest.According to the county annals, there was a place outside the world in the ancient Wuling County, and the theory of Peach Blossom Spring has been passed down to this day.

Now that you can see it, you will know it is true.

Xie Wan looked back, and Ye Gucheng also got out of the carriage, looking at each other, he said lightly: "Since you pass by, let's take a look."

Wuling is in the south, and Wudang is in the north. How did they manage to go all the way south?Xie Wan didn't say anything.

The ten-mile peach blossom grove is endless, and the deeper you go, the more peach petals will be blown down by the wind and piled on the ground without being trampled on.As the breeze blew by, a piece of peach blossom petals from a branch twirled and fell gently in her hair.Joy gradually appeared on Xie Wan's face. She turned her head and said to Ye Gucheng who was slowly approaching with a smile, "Thank you. I am very happy."

Ye Gucheng responded, and then reached out to remove the flower on her head.The peach blossoms on the human face complement each other red, she is more beautiful than the burning peach blossoms in Ye Gucheng's eyes.There is a beautiful peach blossom garden outside the world, but she is the real outsider, who does not belong to this world.Ye Gucheng was afraid that one day Xie Wan would leave.

"Baiyun City has neither snow nor peach blossoms, but I would like to show you the snow and flowers."

"Would you like it?"
