Chapter 24 Congratulations on the Chinese New Year 3

no.3 occasions where Linghu hurts

The first year was originally a festival only in the Sinicization circle.Originally, these small border countries like the Western Regions did not have such festivals.However, due to the prestige of the Han Dynasty, the Silk Road was accessible, and officials came and went frequently.After these years of national blending, some people in these small border countries gradually remembered this festival.

Linghu Shang raised his head slightly, watching Tang Shuang's efforts to hang the bright red lantern tied in his hands from the eaves. Although his face was still as cold as ice, there was a faint warmth in the corners of his eyes.

After Tang Shuang hung up the lantern, no matter how she looked at it, she felt that she was worthy of being the number one craftsman in the Western Regions. Even if she had never made lanterns before, the imitation was very delicate and beautiful, far beyond the reach of ordinary craftsmen.

She was proud of herself, but she didn't want her feet to slip, she jumped and crutched in the air, and even used her lightness kung fu to stabilize her figure on the roof.Seeing this, Linghu Shang, who was below her, gradually loosened his already tense arms, and said a little coldly: "Tomorrow, we will go to the Plum Blossom Stake."

When Tang Shuang heard this, before she had time to come up from the eaves, she said angrily: "Tomorrow is the first day of the new year! You can't work on the first day of the new year, or you will suffer for a year!"

Linghu Shanglanlan rolled his eyes, and said softly: "The rumors in the market are not credible."

Tang Shuang was so angry that she squinted her eyes and stood on the roof, angrily said: "If you want to jump on the plum blossom pile, I won't come down!"

The corners of Linghu Shangwen's eyes twitched, and the posture of standing with his chest folded finally moved.He looked up at Tang Shuang on the roof expressionlessly, and said in a low voice, "Come down!"

Since Tang Shuang was brought back by Linghu Shang, she has become more and more courageous in recent years.She actually sat down straight, turned around with her knees hugged, leaving Linghu Shang a back, and said fiercely: "I won't come down!"

Linghu Shang narrowed his eyes, moved his toes slightly, and saw that he was going to fly directly to the eaves to catch Tang Shuang himself.

When Su Mansha, who was only ten years old this year, came back from playing with the kitten, what she saw was the only two adults in the family.She first looked up at Tang Shuang on the roof, and then at Linghu Shang who was expressionless under the eaves.Immediately he let go of his hand very obediently, let the kitten run away, approached Linghu Shang, and obediently called: "Master."

Linghu Shang agreed, probably because he felt that it was too embarrassing to arrest someone in front of his apprentice, so he took back his original pace and stared deeply at Tang Shuang on the roof.

Seeing this, Su Mansha blinked her eyes, and looked up innocently again. She said in a confused voice: "Uncle, the sun is about to set. Didn't you say that you want to have a big meal tonight? I'm hungry if I don't go back." -"

Tang Shuang moved, turned around slowly, looked at Linghu's wounded little apprentice, embarrassed to put on a cold face, and said in a warm voice: "Master, the food is ready, it's all your favorite food , go and eat when you’re hungry.”

Su Mansha was puzzled, "What about the uncle?"

Tang Shuang fell silent suddenly.Su Mansha looked at Tang Shuang, then at Linghu Shang, and she understood clearly.She winked at Linghu Shang, expressing that if it was because of this reason, she would have nothing to do, but she praised Master for having a coup.

Linghu Shang did have a solution.

He stared at Tang Shuang quietly, sighed indistinctly, and said slowly, "Come down,... no more practice."

Tang Shuang asked suspiciously, "Really?"

Linghu Shang: "...Really."

Tang Shuang patted the non-existent dust on the robe, and the Tangmen's Niaoxiang Bikong jumped down.

The bird soars into the blue sky, and the acquisition of this style of lightness kung fu is like an eagle hitting the sky.She was wearing a crimson veil dress, and she floated to the ground like a peony suddenly blooming, spreading out charmingly.

Linghu Shang frowned when he saw Tang Shuang's subconscious moves, until Tang Shuang looked at him with some puzzlement, and then he regained his indifferent face, seeing Tang Shuang holding Su Mansha's hand , led the porcelain doll, who was also wearing a scarlet new dress, and was only a size smaller than her waist, and walked into the house.

While walking, I could still hear Tang Shuang introducing in a cheerful voice: "Uncle Master went to Suzhou and Hangzhou this time, and specially learned Squirrel Mandarin Fish and West Lake Drunken Chicken..."

Su Mansha listened carefully, and occasionally asked, "Is the hidden weapon sold this time?"

Tang Shuang would say: "The South has been wronged a lot, was the mechanism bird fun last time? Master will do something else for you?"

Su Mansha said seriously: "Exquisiteness is very exquisite, but I think we can also add some poisonous needles in the mouth of the mechanism bird, which is absolutely ingenious to deal with the enemy, and it is hard to guard against."

Tang Shuang: "..."

Tang Shuang let go of Su Mansha's hand calmly, and turned to look at Linghu Shang who was following behind: "...Brother, explain, where did you take Xiaosha during the three months I was away?"

Linghu Shang: "........."

Su Mansha smiled and said, "I went to Uncle Amber's place, uncle, it's really fun at Uncle Amber's place."

Tang Shuang: "...An Lushan?"

Linghu Shang looked at the very innocent Su Mansha, and slowly opened his mouth: "She has caused the Third Wolf Fang Camp to become a mess by herself, and the righteous brother is afraid of her."

Hearing this, Tang Shuang silently praised Su Mansha, and praised in a low voice that she thought Linghu Shang couldn't hear: "Beautiful job!"

Su Mansha subconsciously looked at Linghu Shang, she thought that Linghu Shang would be angry, but Linghu Shang acted as if he really didn't hear anything.Seeing his little apprentice looking at him in confusion, he even moved his fingers slightly, making a 'no' gesture.

Su Mansha: If you hear it, pretend not to hear it.Mother, the adult world is really difficult to understand.

At this time, the three of them had already sat at the round table in the hall, Tang Shuang helped Su Mansha clean her hands, and the maids served dishes one by one.Su Mansha looked at the dishes on the table, blinked and said, "Master, is there any dish that Master likes?"

Tang Shuang said: "Yes, these are all."

Su Mansha was a little curious: "On weekdays, I seldom see Master eating sweets. Does Master like sweets so much?"

Tang Shuang recalled it for a while, and said, "I remember that my senior tastes similar to mine. When I asked him what he wanted to eat, he answered me with these."

Su Mansha gave a meaningful "Oh" and buried herself in her meal.

Because of Tang Shuang's practice of organ skills, he travels all year round, and Linghu Shang, as a warrior, rarely stays in one place for too long.Throughout the year, there is not much time for the three of them to gather together.Su Mansha usually stays with Linghu Shang for half a year, and then lives with Tang Shuang in Qiuci for half a year.She made up her mind, since she was rescued by Linghu Shang until now, it was the first time she experienced the "Spring Festival" that Tang Shuang called.

The food was very rich, but Linghushang was not a talkative person, and Su Mansha was not too talkative. Tang Shuang saw their master and apprentice finished their meal in the same manner as usual, with the attitude of aristocratic kings. After rinsing his mouth, he looked over, one big and one small, and the two Western Regions people with profound facial features had an attitude of "tell me what other customs are there, and we will follow you".

Tang Shuang: ...How do you feel that this year is so weird?

She took out the wrapped red envelope with big blessing characters written on it, and handed it to Su Mansha with a bright smile: "Come, Xiaosha, your lucky money."

Su Mansha reached out to take it, and replied with a smile: "Thank you, uncle!"

Tang Shuang was coaxed very happily, but as soon as she raised her eyes, she saw Linghu Shang looking at her quietly, as if she was waiting for something without saying a word.

Tang Shuang: "...Brother, what are you looking at?"

Linghu Shang glanced at the red envelope folded in the shape of a butterfly in Su Mansha's hand.Su Mansha looked at her master, her face was distressed, but she still insisted on giving the red envelopes to her master as usual.

Tang Shuang turned around silently and wrapped a new one: "...well, this is yours, brother."

Linghu Shang took the red envelope, was silent for a while, and then said: "...Only for children?"

Tang Shuang felt that it would not be easy for Linghu Shang to come back from Mobei to celebrate the New Year together, so she kindly said, "No, everyone has it."

Su Mansha asked: "Then I have one with Master, what about yours, Master?"

Tang Shuang was thinking about how to round it so as not to hurt her face, when Linghu Shang actually took out a long and narrow sandalwood box from her waist and handed it to Tang Shuang.Tang Shuang was slightly stunned, then reached out to take it, opened it and saw that it was a pair of hand-carved earrings.

Linghu Shang's swordsmanship is top-notch, and he can hold a small knife like a god.These drop earrings are carved from a single piece of teardrop-shaped hibiscus stone featuring vivid peach blossom carvings.If it is matched with the golden butterfly hairpin he gave Tang Shuang when he came back last time, it will fit the meaning of Butterfly Love Flower.

Tang Shuang blinked and said with a smile: "There are gifts every time I come back, isn't this New Year's gift too perfunctory?"

Linghu Shang said lightly: "For me, there is no difference."

Tang Shuang was a little powerless at first, and wanted to emphasize with Linghu Shang that the Spring Festival was also uniquely important among many festivals.However, without saying a word, he reacted suddenly.

Linghu Shang was born to a Han woman and a Turkic leader. He may not really mean that festivals are meaningless to him.There is no difference, perhaps meaning that for him, every return is a festival worth celebrating.Since it is a holiday, it should be celebrated.According to the habits of people in the Western Regions, gifts are a must on important festivals.

...That's why she can receive gifts from Linghu Shang every time.

Su Mansha said suddenly: "Hey, uncle, why are you blushing?"

Linghu Shang smiled slightly.

Tang Shuang suddenly stretched out her hand to cover Linghu's injured face, blushed, and stammered, "No, don't laugh!"

Linghu Shang was noncommittal, he stretched out his hand to hold Tang Shuang's finger, but still smiled as she said.Tang Shuang was still in extreme embarrassment to herself, she withdrew her hand to cover her eyes and gave up on herself as if she didn't know anything.

The moonlight was just right in the courtyard, and the floor was slowly paved.

Tang Shuang took several deep breaths before regaining her composure.Turning to Su Mansha, she said, "It's getting late, Xiaosha will go back first."

Su Mansha looked at the two of them, then left her seat in seconds, followed by the maid.Before leaving, she gave Tang Shuang a thumbs-up and said silently, "Uncle Master is the most powerful."

Tang Shuang's face was blank: ... Where is the power?

The leftovers on the table have been cleaned up long ago. Grape delicacies are placed on the carved wooden table, and a faint fruity fragrance permeates the air.

Linghu Shang looked down at his empty palm, and turned to Tang Shuang who was sitting on the other side:

"A Shuang, come here."

Tang Shuang got up subconsciously and took two steps forward, a smile appeared in Linghu Shang's eyes.When Tang Shuang reacted, she only had time to exclaim - she was directly pulled into Linghu Shang's arms.

Huafa's swordsman stroked her long hair and said, "A Shuang, don't go to the Central Plains again."

Tang Shuang raised her head in confusion: "Why?"

Linghu paused for a moment, but said: "Xiaosha needs someone to take care of her."

Tang Shuang was puzzled: "Can I take Xiaosha with me?"

Linghu Shang stroked Tang Shuang's hair without speaking. Seeing that Linghu Shang did not speak, Tang Shuang didn't intend to disturb him, but just stayed in his arms quietly until Linghu Shang said in a low voice: "Kalubi, Do you remember this man?"

Tang Shuang leaned on his shoulder and thought for a while: "Mingjiao's Emperor Ye? I saw you last time! This person is a bit strange. He was far away from him, but his expression suddenly changed, and he was about to rush over through the crowd. I was taken aback, so I listened to Xiaosha and avoided it."

Linghu Shang responded, saying that Tang Shuang did the right thing, and said, "Do you know Tang Yan?"

Tang Shuang joked: "The name sounds familiar. It has the same surname as mine? Are you related?"

Linghu Shang was silent, and after a while, a deep voice sounded: "No, it doesn't matter."

Tang Shuang keenly sensed that Linghushang's mood was dark, so she stretched out her hand to support Linghushang's face, and said with a smile, "What's the matter? If you're not happy after midnight, you won't be happy for the next year, okay? "

Linghu Shang let go of his hand slightly after hearing the words, and under the moonlight, he looked at Tang Shuang's face very clearly, every inch of it, and he knew it by heart.

He asked, "Does your head still hurt recently?"

Tang Shuang said with a smile: "Doctor Sun really lives up to his reputation as a medical sage. The last time he gave acupuncture, he did not commit a crime."

Linghu Shang hummed, Tang Shuang looked at him and sighed.

Tang Shuang said: "Don't be upset, senior brother, it really doesn't work, I'll just go to the plum blossom pile in the future..."

"It doesn't matter." Linghu Shanghu interrupted, "If you don't want to learn, then you can just leave me alone. Next time you want to go to the Central Plains, I will accompany you."

Tang Shuang was a little surprised: "Okay, why are you going to the Central Plains all of a sudden? Have you finished fighting Dongpu?"

Linghu Shang gave a "hmm" and said, "Before we go to the Central Plains, let's go back to Ghost Valley."

"What are you doing back to Ghost Valley? Brother, didn't you say that Master and the others have passed away long ago?"

Linghu Shang stared at Tang Shuang, looked into her clear and innocent eyes, and said, "But it is home, and there are some things that must be done at home."

Tang Shuang asked curiously, "What's the matter?"

Linghu Shang stopped talking, just said: "It's getting late, go back and rest."

Tang Shuang suddenly realized: "Ah, I can't sleep before midnight tonight, I have to watch the year!"

Linghu Shang looked at Tang Shuang and said calmly, "I've been tired all day, go to sleep, I'll watch over for you."

Tang Shuang said dissatisfiedly, "There's no one to watch the year for others."

Linghu said sadly: "I will guard for you, who can say no?"

Tang Shuang was rendered speechless by Linghu Shang's words.She wanted to ignore Linghu Shang and watch the night alone.However, Linghu felt sad, Tang Shuang didn't speak, and the room became quiet all at once.

Sitting in the living room, Tang Shuang ate all the pastries, fruits, and tea, but she still couldn't resist the flood of drowsiness. After nodding her head twice, she spontaneously lay down on Linghu Injured shoulder.Linghu Shang glanced sideways at her slightly, reached out to help her take off the hairpin, and loosened her hair.

Sitting in the hall, Tang Shuang shrank from the night draft, underestimating the word "cold".Linghu Shang put down the long sword in his hand, reached out to pick her up, and sat in his arms.His internal strength is strong, even in the ice and snow, he is as warm as spring.Tang Shuang supported his chest, and was soon thoroughly invaded by the warmth from the other party, and she opened her eyes.

Linghu Shang embraced her with one hand, resting his chin on the desk with the other, his expression was soft like moonlight.The corner of Tang Shuang's mouth was smiling, with the same worry-free appearance that Linghu Shang remembered, he let go of his hand, lowered his head slightly, kissed the girl in his arms, pushed the brown pill through the gap between his teeth.

In the past, the blood-stained young man rushed into Wanhua with a corpse in his arms, and went straight to the bank of Luoxing Lake and the side of the medicine sage's hut. He was not sad but burst into tears.

He begged Sun Simiao in a low voice, "Save her."

Sun Simiao, the sage of medicine, although he is known as "The King of Hades is afraid", he does not really have the ability to bring the dead back to life.After three days, the swordsman stayed outside the medicine hut, not leaving for a moment.Sun Simiao had no choice but to try to save a corpse.

However, at the moment when he took over, a miracle really happened, and a weak pulse suddenly came from the originally dead body.Sun Simiao really managed to bring people back from the dead.

Sun Simiao told the swordsman: "It's really unimaginable to come back from the dead. From my perspective, she seems to have passed through a great tragedy, and she has no intention of surviving. If she can't solve this problem, even if I rescue her, she won't wake up."

But the swordsman said: "What if we make her forget all about it?"

The medicine sage reprimanded the swordsman for violating medical ethics, but he was forced by thousands of disciples in the valley, so he could only say: "Miao Jiang has a Gu name to forget feelings, and it may have miraculous effects."

The moon is over, and the morning light is not yet shining.

Linghu Shang woke up Tang Shuang, and said, "The old year is gone, go back to sleep."

Tang Shuang opened her eyes in a daze, saw that it was Linghushang, looked at the sky again, and immediately blamed her: "Senior brother, why didn't you call me when I fell asleep! No, the point is wrong, ahh, senior brother A girl's sleeping face can't just be shown to others!"

Linghu Shang was noncommittal, he let go of his hand, allowing Tang Shuang to stand up from his lap with an annoyed expression.He even waved to Tang Shuang and said, "Hair is messed up, come here."

Tang Shuang clutched her head with some regret: "Forget it, don't comb it, senior brother, lend me a little more time to lie down."

Linghu Shang was silent for a moment, then said: "I will call you next year."

Tang Shuang looked at Linghu Shang suspiciously: "Really?"

Linghu hurt his jaw: "Yes."

Tang Shuang blinked: "Okay, I will trust you again."

Just when Tang Shuang was about to lie back and sleep for a while, Linghu Shang asked abruptly, "Are you going to see Emperor Ye?"

Tang Shuang stopped in her tracks when she heard that, she turned around with a dazed expression on her face:

"Who is that?"

Linghu Shang smiled slightly, he stretched out his hand to stroke Tang Shuang's hair, and kissed her brow, but his tone was as cold as ice and snow.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "No one."
