【Grain wattle】turbulent flow

Jing Ji just sat there holding Gu Yuexuan's hand for half a night, then fell asleep in a daze, and when he woke up, it was bright and the person beside him was no longer in the same place.

Feeling an inexplicable sense of loss in his heart, he raised his slightly stiff arms, stood up, and walked out of the cabin.

Gu Yuexuan was standing at the bow of the boat, tilting his head slightly, talking to Shi Yi.

Seeing his standing posture, his complexion was much better than last night, apart from his pale face, there was no trace of pain on his body.Thorn looked at the man's back, and couldn't help feeling dazed.If last night was not the first time he saw Gu Yuexuan's appearance of injury attack, he would have taken that person's fragility last night as an illusion.

Standing a few steps away, he could clearly hear the conversation between the two.

I just heard Shi Yi said: "I haven't seen you for a few years, brother Gu's skill has improved a lot. Yesterday's boxing technique that knocked back that old beggar is really unparalleled and admirable."

Gu Yuexuan chuckled, and said: "Brother Shi is too famous. I have neglected to practice martial arts in the past few years, and I have been so wasteful. I am afraid that it is the deterrence of Guild Master Xiong and Brother Shi that made Section Master Li retreat. , the stick technique that Brother Shi used to use is also strong and vigorous, and the palm technique that I am good at has some similarities in name."

Shi Yi repeatedly waved his hands and said: "Hey, Brother Gu, don't say such polite words on purpose. My stick technique is just a trick and a half I learned from the family book. It's easy to say when I usually deal with some small thieves. , how can it compare to the profound skills of your brothers and sisters."

Gu Yuexuan thought for a while, and said: "Brother Shi, you don't have to be overly modest. Although the routines of the stick method and palm method are different, they can also be integrated in the kung fu. If there is a chance, I would also like to learn from Brother Shi."

Shi Yi laughed a few times, grabbed Gu Yuexuan's shoulders, and said: "That's very good. Brother Wei Ming said it well, and Brother Gu is really open-minded and doesn't hide any secrets. Shi Yi and I are committed to your friend. After sending off the third brother this time, do you want Brother Gu to go out to sea with us? There are many treasures on the sea. Last time, my eldest brother and I found one or two good weapons. It is said that they are all magical weapons left over from ancient times. There are gold, silver, jade, calligraphy, painting and porcelain. If Brother Gu is interested, I can give you some as well."

When hearing about calligraphy, painting and porcelain, Gu Yuexuan raised his eyebrows slightly, obviously interested.

Thorn watched the two chatting happily with cold eyes, and twitched the corners of his mouth, feeling a little annoyed.He glared at Shi Yi, who looked like a rough man with no ink and only loves to use martial arts, but he didn't expect to have the same boring hobby of collecting as his senior brother.

He didn't want to listen any more, and was about to turn around and return to the cabin, when Gu Yuexuan said: "Among the weapons that Brother Shi said, are there any good swords?"

Shi Yi was taken aback, and said: "Yes, there are, but brother Gu usually doesn't use weapons, why would he want a sword all of a sudden?"

A little embarrassment appeared on Gu Yuexuan's face, he lowered his head and smiled, and said: "I'm not very talented, I'm not proficient in weapons, and I don't usually need them, but my second junior brother is used to using swords, if he finds a good one, he probably would be of some interest."

Thorn's heart skipped a beat when he heard that, and he couldn't move for a while.

He glanced at the Buddha Sword and Demon Saber hanging on his waist. If he had heard Gu Yuexuan say this before, he would definitely have thought that that person was still brooding over the fact that he snatched the sword in a fit of anger. For the sake of Xiaoyaogu's reputation, I want him to return the pair of swords to Jianjian Villa.But somehow, now he seems to be able to understand that for Gu Yuexuan, he would mention this sentence, maybe it was really just because he simply thought that his junior brother might like it.

This thought made his heart sour, and the subtle unhappiness before disappeared in a flash.

At this time, there was a noise from the stern of the boat, and the three people at the bow all turned their heads at the same time, Gu Yuexuan stood behind him when he saw the thorn, he was slightly stunned, coughed, and then called out "Aji".

Thorn mumbled unconsciously, "I just came out and didn't hear anything."

There is no such thing as 300 taels of silver here, even Shi Yi laughed, and Thorn raised his eyes to stare at him again, thinking that looking at this man was really not pleasing to the eye.

The three of them entered the cabin and walked towards the stern together. Jingji followed Gu Yuexuan, always wanting to ask him about his injuries, but because of the presence of Shi Yi and others, they couldn't ask.Along the way, Gu Yuexuan never showed a trace of weakness in front of others, probably he didn't want others to know that he was injured.

It's rare to taste the feeling of being unable to speak when you have something to say, and Jingji feels even more upset, wishing that the boat can go faster, get rid of Lu Shaolin's burden earlier, so that he can quickly find out whether Gu Yuexuan is hiding something he.

When the group arrived at the stern, they saw a student of the Sea Shark Gang catching fish, while Lu Shaolin and Xiong Tianba watched from the side.

That Lu Shaolin stood with his hands behind his back, his head was very close to the fishing rod, and he kept mumbling, from the angle of dropping the rod to the type of bait, everything was right and proper, but he had no intention of doing it himself.

Just as he was talking happily, the fishing rod suddenly moved. Seeing that the fish was not too small, it dragged the student of the Sea Shark Gang forward a few steps, not to mention that the fish's tail was afraid that the splash from the fish's tail would still hit him. Lu Shaolin, who was on the side, was splashed all over his head and face.

Most of his clothes were wet, and even the ends of his hair were dripping water. Lu Shaolin slowly turned his head, and spit out a weed that stuck to the corner of his mouth with a dull expression.

Xiong Tianba couldn't bear it anymore, and immediately pointed at him and laughed wildly: "Third brother, look at you, you can't even listen to that fish anymore!"

The laughter rumbled like thunder, shaking the black-covered boat from side to side, Lu Shaolin said dissatisfiedly: "Brother, you are so busy laughing at me, be careful to scare away the fish in the water, and hurt us There will be no food for a while."

Xiong Tianba was so teased by him that he couldn't stop laughing out loud, the laughter was like a torrent of bells, it swayed along the open water surface, and clear circles of ripples could be seen even ten feet away.

Gu Yuexuan's inner strength is as strong as Gu Yuexuan, and he couldn't help being numb from the laughter. When he looked up again, he saw Xiong Tianba proudly bending down to pick up a fat mandarin fish from the water.

The fish must have been stunned by the laughter just now, rolled its eyes, and its tail twitched slightly, apparently having no strength to escape.

Xiong Tianba threw the fish into the arms of the stunned Lu Shaolin, and said proudly, "Lunch."

Lu Shaolin hugged the fish and stared straight at it, which made Xiong Tianba laugh again, and raised his big wet hand to rub his forehead.

Wanting to hide but unable to dodge, Lu Shaolin shrank his neck with a bitter face, his hair was messed up again in a blink of an eye, and several fish scales were stuck to the ends of his braids, he was really embarrassed.

Seeing the fight between the two at the stern, Gu Yuexuan turned his head and said to Shi Yi, who was also laughing, "You three brothers really have a very good relationship."

Shi Yi smiled and said: "Of course. In these years, the third brother often came to drink with us except to take care of the affairs of the bodyguard bureau. My eldest brother and I have long regarded him as a member of the Sea Shark Gang. We are all dead Brother."

Thorn narrowed his eyes at Lu Shaolin, and spat: "That guy, maybe he also invited you to drink the flower bar as soon as we met."

Shi Yi frowned, and said solemnly: "Brother Jing, Shaolin likes to mess around, I won't go to those places."

Gu Yuexuan couldn't help but asked curiously: "How did you and Brother Lu meet?"

Shi Yi scratched his chin and said embarrassingly: "It was a misunderstanding. That year, my eldest brother and I got the news that there would be a dart near the main rudder, and the bets were all high-ranking officials in the capital. The people's fat and anointing collected over the years, the official took advantage of his resignation to return to his hometown, and planned to transport all these treasures back home. When my elder brother and I heard that he was a corrupt official, we immediately became angry and thought of robbing the dart so that The money was distributed to the brothers and the suffering folks around. When we really stopped the bodyguard, we saw that the bodyguard was a teenage boy who was only fifteen or sixteen years old. At that time, we were a little hesitant, thinking that the corrupt official would not be so casual. "

Gu Yuexuan guessed most of it, and asked: "The bodyguard is Brother Lu?"

Shi Yi nodded and said: "It's really Shaolin. My eldest brother and I didn't take him seriously at first, but we didn't expect to find out that his skills are not bad when we actually fought against each other, so we felt sorry for each other, not really. Painful killer. It was only after I stopped that I realized that the dart trip was not the treasure of corrupt officials at all, but the property of ordinary people who moved. My elder brother and I felt ashamed, so we apologized. reported his reckless behavior to the government, and treated us to a drink. I still remember that Shaolin told us at that time that the Golden Wind Escort had always been principled and would never bet on ill-gotten gains. My elder brother and I felt that this The little brother is very loyal and responsible, and he shares the same goals with us, after a meal, we are determined to become sworn brothers with him."

After hearing this story, Thorn raised his eyebrows, and said in a low voice: "I didn't expect that kid to be quite arrogant."

Shi Yi said with a smile: "Shaolin started to walk the rivers and lakes when he was 15 years old. Although he was young at that time, he looked good as a dart. But no matter how capable he is, in the eyes of my elder brother and me, he is the same as the little boy back then. Brother. The difference in our births is not small. Shaolin has no worries about food and clothing since he was a child. Instead of being arrogant, he also plays well with us rough people who only know how to fight and kill. The longer we live, the more we feel that, Back then, it was a great thing to know each other without fighting.”

After getting in touch for a while, Thorn no longer treated Lu Shaolin as he did at the beginning, only treating Lu Shaolin as a worthless mess.He seemed to have a vague understanding of why Shi Yi and the others insisted on protecting Lu Shaolin. That kind of feeling seemed very familiar to him.

Only to hear Shi Yi said again: "This time there was an accident in the Jinfeng Escort, my elder brother and I heard about it, and we all thought that we must come to help Shaolin. Don't mention how many people are chasing behind, even if we want to go up the mountain of swords and go down into the sea of ​​fire How can we be afraid? The beggar surnamed Li said that Shaolin was helping eunuchs to harm the country. I would never believe it. I don’t know who my third brother is? Even if the world slanders If he slanders him, I won't hesitate."

Gu Yuexuan lowered his eyes and smiled, "That's true."

Those four simple words made Jing Zhi's heart tremble again, as if he had heard many unfinished overtones.

Over there, Lu Shaolin was squatting on the deck busy removing the scales and gills of the mandarin fish, his saber technique was smooth, and he didn't care about the treasured saber in his hand at all.

After finishing the fish, he stood up and asked, "What flavor do you two brothers want to eat?"

Shi Yi went up to meet him, waved his hands and said, "Get some whatever you want. In one day, Suzhou will arrive. We can get off the boat and eat something good."

Holding the fish, Lu Shaolin curled his lips and said, "If you don't leave it like this, the fish will probably smell pretty bad when we get to Suzhou, so it's better to make salted fish."

Thorn stared in disgust and said, "Smelly fish? Can it be eaten?"

Lu Shaolin clicked his tongue and said: "You don't understand that, the Huizhou stinky mandarin fish is a famous dish. I ate it in the Xiaochun Courtyard of Fengyang Mansion when I was guarding the darts. The one is called Yue The smell gets fresher..."

Thorn frowned more and more, and said firmly: "If you want to eat it, you will eat it, anyway, no matter how stinky it is, the smell will be the same."

After he finished speaking, he walked back to the cabin with a low waist, only to hear Xiong Tianba behind him still excitedly saying, "The third brother said it was delicious, so it must be delicious, remember to eat it together when the time comes", he couldn't help frowning and said: "Bah, it's really unprincipled."

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his head, and saw Gu Yuexuan who followed him in and stared at him blankly, he must have heard his voice, and smiled helplessly and innocently.

Seeing him like this, Jing Ji was speechless again, thinking of the previous conclusion that Lu Shaolin must have been spoiled by his elder brother, he felt a little guilty for no reason.
