[Ancient Sword] Tianjing Sand

15

Baili Tusu and Wen Renyu had seen Le Wuyi's Yanjia bird on the Jiangling Ancient Road before, but Xia Yi saw it for the first time and was very curious.

"This is the letter-transmitting Yanjia I made. It can transmit voice directly. You can understand it after reading it." Le Wuyi explained to Xia Yi.

Le Wuyi turned on the mechanism of Yanjianiao, and heard the voice of his mother Fu Qingjiao coming from it.Wenren Yuben was a little worried that the Le family ordered Le Wuyi to return to Chang'an as soon as possible, but Fu Qingjiao felt very relieved that Le Wuyi had made friends after traveling far away.Le Shaocheng, Duke of Dingguo, told Le Wuyi to treat Han Guang with caution.Wen Renyu couldn't help being overjoyed when he heard the voice of his idol Ding Guogong, his eyes lit up.

The four gossiped for a while, and because Xia Yi was injured, they decided to stay here for a few days before going to Langde.

Although there are not many houses here, they are very spacious, but there are not enough beds.Le Wuyi cut a few bamboos on the spot and built two beds, one for Wen Renyu, and one for Wen Renyu, and he put the other in Yanjia's room, saying it was for the convenience of reading the atlas.

As the sky was getting dark, Baili Tusu searched for some wild game from the mountains to prepare meals.However, due to the lack of seasoning, the dishes looked a little crude, which made Xia Yi greatly amazed.

"I can also cook." Le Wuyi saw that Baili Tusu's cooking skills are very good, and said, "Tomorrow, you must call me for Tusu's cooking."

"En." Baili Tusu responded casually.He originally wanted to call Le Wuyi, but seeing that he was reading the atlas seriously in Yanjiafang, he didn't bother him.

After dinner, the four went to rest separately.As soon as Baili Tusu lay down, he remembered the words he remembered in his dream again, feeling extremely depressed, and felt that his emotions were also surging with the evil spirit in his body.Baili Tusu suppressed the evil spirit with a mental method he didn't know where he learned, knowing that he couldn't fall asleep, he simply raised his sword and went outside to practice sword meditation.

It was already dark, the wind was clear and the moon was bright, and the night insects groaned from the forest, which made Baili Tusu feel a little calm.Baili Tusu raised his momentum and made a move, and the sword moves became coherent by themselves as if they had been practiced thousands of times.With the ups and downs of Jianfeng, the depression in my heart quietly faded away.So what if he has a bad fate and bears evil spirits?As long as the long sword is in hand, there is nothing to fear in the heart.

The more Baili Tusu practiced, the more vigorous he was, and he used almost all the sword moves he had forgotten.Finally, he used the Kongming Phantom Sword that defeated Lingxu in the Fantian Seal as a final move.After practicing this sword pass, I only felt comfortable in the whole body, but when I saw Xia Yi by mistake, I didn't know when he was standing three feet away, obviously he had been standing for a while.

Baili Tusu put his sword back into its sheath, and Xia Yi walked towards him.Watching others practice is a big taboo, but Xia Yi's Taihua swordsmanship is his own, and he doesn't need to steal his swordsmanship to learn his sword moves. Judging from the current situation, he may have something to say.

Xia Yi clasped his fist at Baili Tusu: "I have no intention of peeping, but I just saw that Brother Baili's swordsmanship is exquisite, so I can't help but take a few more glances at Brother Baili Haihan."

"No problem." Baili Tusu said.

"It's a pity that I'm injured, otherwise I will definitely ask Brother Baili for advice." Xia Yi said regretfully.

"Just wait until your injury is better." Baili Tusu said.

"Thank you."

Xia Yi said: "I offend you, Brother Baili can have such a cultivation level at such a young age, I don't know who is the respected master?"

"..." Baili Tusu glanced at those bottomless black eyes, not knowing how to answer.It's not that he doesn't want to answer Xia Yize's question, but that he really can't remember the name of his master.

"Master...Master is the No.1 Yujian in the world." Baili Tusu sighed, "...I also have difficulties, I can't tell who I studied under, sorry."

"The Royal Sword No. 1..." Xia Yi heard Baili Tusu say this, frowned and thought about it, and soon had a candidate in his mind, but he had never heard of that expert taking in an apprentice.Could it be that Baili Tusu learned the sword technique by stealing it?Baili Tusu's every move was obviously taught by an expert, and it is impossible to learn this level by stealing.

When Baili Tusu saw Xia Yi, he frowned and said nothing. He wanted to ask about his injuries, but someone said in surprise, "Tu Su, Yi Ze, where are you?"

The two looked up and saw a young man in blue and white shirts walking towards them, either Le Wuyi or something.

Did he not sleep?Baili Tusu was a little surprised.Today, he traveled a lot from Jiangling to this place. He is a cultivator, so it’s okay to walk these roads. It was very hard work for the young master, Le Wuyi. Baili Tusu thought he was already asleep, but he didn’t expect Le Wuyi to look like this. Actually quite energetic.

"Brother Le?" Xia Yi was taken aback, also not expecting that Le Wuyi was still awake, and explained, "...the cold night is long, I went out for a walk, and happened to meet Brother Baili."

"Tu Su hasn't slept yet?" Le Wuyi asked Baili Tusu.

"Not sleepy." Baili Tusu replied.

"Ha, what a coincidence, me too..." Le Wuyi said, "By the way, have you seen Wenren? I wanted to continue listening to her talk about the Baicao Valley, but I didn't see anyone."

"Miss Wenren seems to be looking for something, I saw her go to the kitchen earlier." Xia Yi said.

"Oh." Le Wuyi heard that Wen Renyu was busy, so he didn't say anything else.

"Both of you can master chess?" Xia Yi asked.

Baili Tusu shook his head, and Le Wuyi replied, "A little bit, how about you?"

"A rough knowledge." Xia Yi said, "There's nothing left and right, why don't we have a chat while we're at it?"

"Okay, I wish I could!" Le Wuyi said happily.

The two brought chess pieces from the house and played chess under the moonlight.Although Baili Tusu didn't know how to play chess, he understood the general rules, so he folded his arms and watched the two fight on the chessboard.

Xia Yi's style of chess is the same as his swordsmanship, he is decisive and unstoppable, Le Wuyi is also like a man, without killing intent, but very flexible and changeable, with many surprises.

The two chatted while playing chess.Baili Tusu was not a talkative person, he chatted with the two of them, and the topic gradually turned to why Le Wuyi learned Yanshu.Hearing Le Wuyi's original intention of learning Yanshu again, Baili Tusu couldn't help but recall his original intention of learning sword.

[With a sword in your hand, you can protect those you cherish. 】

The long sword is already in his hand, but the person he cherishes and his past have been forgotten by him, and he can't recall it no matter what.

Xia Yi noticed Wen Renyu was standing at the door with a jar in his arms, so he called her over.

"What are you holding in your hand?" Le Wuyi took the jar curiously, "Wine?... Where did you get it?"

"In the kitchen, there's a wine cellar in the basement, and there's only one jar left." Wen Renyu replied.

"Wow, this is old wine for many years-hmm." Le Wuyi said excitedly, and suddenly looked at Wen Renyu, "Wait, do you want to keep such a good wine for yourself?"

"...What are you stealing, I was planning to go with you!" Wen Renyu said hastily.

"The night wind is clear and the moon is white, it's just right to get drunk." Xia Yi said with a smile, "I don't know what Brother Baili thinks?"

Baili Tusu nodded.He didn't drink, but he didn't want to spoil the other three.

"You want to recuperate, can you drink?" Wen Renyu asked.

"It's okay, just drink lightly." Xia Yi replied casually.

"Wow, it's really good wine, I can already smell the aroma of the wine--" Le Wuyi held the wine jar with a salivating look, "However, we not only entered Grandpa Xie's house, but also stole his wine... Isn't that a little too much?"

"...Then, shall I return the wine?" Wen Renyu said.

"...Forget it, I'll buy him ten altars of good wine to compensate him later, I hope he won't be angry..." Le Wuyi said decisively.

"It also counts as the next ten altars." Xia Yi said.

"Uh... I don't have much money with me, but I'm strong enough to carry your wine." Wen Renyu said.

"That's the same." On Baili Tusu Street.

"Okay, it's a deal~ Then, I'll open the altar right now." Le Wuyi hurriedly opened the mud seal on the mouth of the altar, and the strong aroma of wine immediately rushed up.

"Wow, that's really good wine." Le Wuyi narrowed his peach eyes with a smile, looked up at Baili Tusu's half-smile eyes, and then winked at him, like a fish that ate dried fish cat.

The four drank and chatted.Baili Tusu took two sips and stopped drinking.Le Wuyi had a very poor capacity for alcohol, his face flushed after only a few sips, and his bright amber eyes became clouded.

"I seem...seem...hiccup...seem to be a little dizzy..." Le Wuyi said and leaned on Baili Tusu who was next to him. Baili Tusu glanced at him and saw that Le Wuyi could still sit still , then pay attention to him not to fall over.

"Are you drunk after just a few mouthfuls?" Wen Renyu's voice contained a bit of disdain, "There's really nothing I can do about you."

"Who, who said I was drunk!" Le Wuyi yelled and defended, "... hiccup..."

"Brother Le, overdose will hurt your body, please exercise some restraint." Xia Yi persuaded.

"...Okay, okay, I'll drink less...hiccup..." Le Wuyi hiccupped, "I heard you...what did you just say...?"

"Speaking of... the first time Master taught me marksmanship..." Wen Renyu replied.

"Ah, yes... your master is really kind, and even made you a □□~" Le Wuyi said.

"Famous teachers produce great apprentices, no wonder Miss Wenren is so skilled." Xia Yi praised.

"...Actually... there is something that I have been hesitant to say..." Wen Renyu stammered, "Actually...I...I lied to you..."

It turns out that Wen Renyu's departure from Baicao Valley this time is not what she said at the beginning, but to leave the valley privately to find her master Cheng Tingjun who has been missing for nearly three months. Before Cheng Tingjun disappeared, he was investigating an incident that happened in the Western Regions many years ago. .Wen Renyu knew in his heart that Master might be in danger, but he still had a glimmer of hope.

"After I go to Langde, no matter whether I find Grandpa Xie or not, I will help you find Master." Le Wuyi said.

Baili Tusu thought the same way.

"...Huh? But didn't you always want to find Master Xie?" Wen Renyu asked in surprise.

"Your matter is more important. It doesn't matter if Grandpa Xie looks for it later." Le Wuyi said.

"If you see Xie Yi, you may be able to find the Heavenly Artifact..." Xia Yi said, "If it is as magical as it is in the legend, you may be able to find out the whereabouts of your master."

Wen Renyu's heart warmed up: "...that... I thought you would blame me..."

"Blame you? You didn't harm us, so why blame you?" Le Wuyi looked puzzled.

"But……"

"...Let's not talk about this anymore, it's a beautiful day, drink~" Le Wuyi said.

"Exactly. Floating life is awkward, and if you get together by fate, it will be a big white." Xia Yi said, picking up the wine jar and taking a sip.

"Yi Ze, you bastard~ Seeing that you are silent, you drank more alone than the two of us combined!" Le Wuyi angrily grabbed the wine jar in Xia Yize's hand.

Xia Yi hid and said: "Don't grab, don't grab, husbands don't fight, so there is no preference."

Baili Tusu shook his head seeing the two quarreling, but felt a little happy in his heart.No matter what happens in the future, he will definitely remember the happy time tonight in his heart.

Perhaps because of the alcohol, Baili Tusu fell asleep in bed and had no dreams all night.

The three stayed in Jishan for a few days, and Xia Yi recovered from his injuries, so they agreed to leave for Langde early the next morning.Baili Tusu finished his sword training, had breakfast, fed the gluttonous chicken, and listened to Xia Yize chatting with Wen Renyu for a while, but he didn't see Le Wuyi coming down. He guessed that Young Master Le must have looked at the map last night and saw that it was late at night, so he went up Lou went to call him.

Baili Tusu entered the room and saw that Le Wuyi was still sound asleep, his mouth was slightly open, but he looked much more delicate than when he was awake.The way Le Wuyi fell asleep always made Baili Tusu feel that this kid must not know the sufferings of the world, and he couldn't help feeling a little envious and worried.

Baili Tusu stared at Le Wuyi's sleeping face for a while, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, so he stretched out his hand and pushed his shoulder.

"get up."

"...um..." Le Wuyi responded, but didn't move.

"Wuyi, get up quickly." Baili Tusu pushed him twice again.

"Chirp chirp chirp chirp!"

Seeing Le Wuyi not getting up, the glutton flew down from Baili Tusu's shoulder and landed heavily on Le Wuyi's stomach.

"Ouch!" Le Wuyi screamed and struggled to open his eyes, "Tu Su? Why are you here?"

"Get up quickly." Baili Tusu said expressionlessly.

"Oh, bad, it's so late!" Le Wuyi glanced at the sky, and sat up with a scream, "Tu Su, go downstairs and wait for me, I'll come down right away."

Seeing that Le Wuyi was awake, Baili Tusu went downstairs with the gluttonous chicken.

After a while, Le Wuyi rushed downstairs like a gust of wind: "Sorry, I'm sorry, I kept everyone waiting for so long."

"Three poles in the sun, you can count it~" Wen Renyu teased.

"So what, yesterday I was thinking of going to bed early, but I was too fascinated by the atlas..." Le Wuyi explained, "By the way, I received a reply letter from Miss Pichen last night!"

"Huh?" Wen Renyu was a little surprised, "Then did she say when she will come to pick up the gluttonous chicken?"

"Chirp!" Greedy Chicken expressed that he was also very concerned.

"Uh, this..." Le Wuyi hesitated, "She said that the greedy chicken is a very special kind of bird, and it often recognizes its owner when it is young. Since it has followed me and Tu Su, we have to raise it."

"嘤~" Greedy Chicken expresses its joy and joy.

"Although Chanji is docile, the food intake is really... frightening." Xia Yi glanced at the gluttonous chicken, and said worriedly, "If we continue to walk together, it will take at least five days, and our dry food will be short."

"Yize's words are also reasonable. It's a long way to Langde, so it's inconvenient to bring too much luggage." Wen Renyu said, "And a greedy chicken eats more than the four of us combined... What should we do?" ?"

Greedy chicken heard that Ren Yu said it was too edible, so it flapped its wings and flew towards her.

"Chirp chirp chirp!"

"...You, what do you want to do? Don't come here...!" Wen Renyu quickly took two steps back.With sharp eyes and quick hands, Baili Tusu grabbed the gluttonous chicken flying in mid-air.The gluttonous chicken pecked Baili Tusu's finger very aggrieved.

"Why don't you find a kind family in Jiangling, leave some money, and ask them to look after you for a while?" Xia Yi suggested.

"Not right." Baili Tusu shook his head while smoothing the glutton's hair.

"That's right, it's determined to follow us, how can we leave it?" Le Wuyi said, "But it really ate too much..."

"Chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp!" the gluttonous chicken protested, flew out of Baili Tusu's hand and landed on the ground, white light suddenly radiated from its body.The light dissipated, and I saw that the little yellow chicken had completely turned into a giant bird that was like an eagle, a eagle, a kite, and a kite, and it was not a problem to carry the four of them completely on its back.

"Greedy, gluttonous chicken -- grown up?" Le Wuyi was so surprised that his jaw almost dropped to the ground.

"......... has a demonic aura." Xia Yi frowned.

"!!!" Baili Tusu's heart was shocked, he had definitely seen this monster before, it was...

"What are you talking about... even the gluttonous chicken is a monster?!" Le Wuyi obviously didn't expect the gluttonous chicken to be a monster, "Then what kind of monster is it?"

"Kunpeng." Baili Tusu replied, remembering the name of the monster.

All three turned to look at him in surprise.

"What?! Kunpeng -- that kind of big bird?!" Le Wuyi opened his eyes, "...the juggling troupe seems to have a big Kunpeng..."

"There is a fish in the north, its name is Kun; it turns into a bird, its name is Peng, and it flies in anger, its wings are like clouds hanging from the sky..." Xia Yi immediately remembered the description of Kunpeng in "Xiaoyaoyou".

"...Then... is Kunpeng powerful?" Le Wuyi asked again.

"Of course it's powerful. It is said that in ancient times, when the Kunpeng went out to sea, it would even cause a tsunami. It is a very powerful monster." Wen Renyu explained.

"Ah, so strong? Then why are there two Kunpengs I've seen, one flying around with a juggling troupe on its back, and the other eating only to sleep?" Le Wuyi asked, "Tu Su, have you seen a Kunpeng before?"

Baili Tusu nodded.Not only have you seen it, but you seem to have beaten it?

The three of them stared at Baili Tusu with wide eyes, but Baili Tusu didn't say anything.

"Chirp chirp chirp chirp!" The gluttonous chicken became impatient, but the voice was still the tender cry of a little yellow chicken.

"Forget it, never mind!" Seeing that Baili Tusu had turned into a gourd again, Le Wuyi said, "What does the gluttonous chicken look like -- wise and powerful, let it carry us to Langde!"

"It's so small, can this work?" Wen Renyu asked worriedly.

"Hey!" Greedy Chicken said there was no problem.

"Ha, what a gluttonous chicken! Let's make it so!" Le Wuyi stroked the gluttonous chicken's feathers happily.

"I have no objection." Xia Yi said.

"... Yes." Baili Tusu followed.Although there are suspicions of pet abuse, but considering the gluttonous chickens eat so much meat, activities are also good.

Wen Renyu was still a little hesitant, but Le Wuyi and Baili Tusu had reached the back of the chicken and stretched out their hands to her.Wen Renyu's heart slumped, trying not to shake so obviously, sitting on the back of the gluttonous chicken.

After the four sat down, the greedy chicken spread its wings and flew into the sky.
