Panlong Island in the East China Sea.
Thousands of miles of mist, mountains and rivers complement each other, ferrying ripples, it is far away.
Jiang Mansion is located in this poetic and picturesque scenery.
"The honored guests come to the door to be greeted far away, and to be greeted far away." Mr. Jiang greeted He Cong and Zhu Fengyi's teachers, and when he learned that everything was fine, he turned to Gou Liang and Yue Qian who were facing him with a smile. "Who are these two?"
"Haha, senior, you don't recognize me, this is—"
"Big brother!"
A surprised voice interrupted He Cong's introduction.
At the residence, Situ Bai, who heard that the other escorts had arrived, came to greet him, his eyes lit up, and he walked forward a few steps quickly, "Brother, you are here too, dad didn't even tell me in advance!"
He was apprehensive about this task. After all, "The Piano Score of Consonance" is too eye-catching, and the journey will not be smooth. He is not confident that he can handle it.
Now seeing Yue Qian, his heart immediately stabilized.
"Third Junior Brother."
When Yue Qian saw him, the smile in his eyes became more real.
Mr. Jiang smiled and said: "I wonder who the young man is, so suave, so invincible! Haha, it's strange that the old man can't even recognize you. I'm really stupid. Come forward and let me know." Look at the old man, I haven't seen you for five years, but you have grown into an adult!"
"Yue Qian met old Jiang."
There was nothing he could do about the nickname Yue Qian that his elders called him, and the two exchanged warm greetings.
When Yue Qian became famous in the first battle, he was only fourteen years old and ranked first on the list of young heroes, but in the same year, the Yue family suffered a lot of disasters. Yue Qian entered the Demon Sect alone and disappeared for three years, and then asked his master to lock him in the sword array. Therefore, although he is the head disciple of the Nanshan Sword Sect and has a great reputation, there are very few outsiders who have seen him these years, so there are only a few of them. The scenes where we met and didn't know each other several times.
Yue Qian briefly mentioned the reason for coming to Jiang's house this time, and then introduced Gou Liang to Mr. Jiang.
Although he said he was a friend, when Mr. Jiang saw the appearance of this "female", there was still a dark light in his eyes.
The so-called groundless truth, the reason Tang Nuo categorically said that the Jiang family liked Yue Qian as a son-in-law was because Mr. Jiang had revealed his intention of marrying Nanshan Sword Sect many times in public. Although he pointed to the Mountain Sword Sect, who didn't know that what he was looking at was Yue Qian, the first disciple of Situ's head
I've never heard of Yue Qian having a pink friend, but now there is such a one, and Gou Liang's appearance is a great threat to his granddaughter...
Just thinking about Jiang Suxi, she came.
The crisp bell sounded, and the young girl ran in dartingly. After entering the door, she only heard grandpa coughing and coughing twice. She stuck out her tongue, and hurriedly straightened up like a lady, and came in lotus steps. Even so, those eyes were full of slyness and quickly looked at everyone in the eye hall, and when they saw Yue Qian, they lit up instantly, and the smile on his face deepened, with an innocent and smart appearance, people couldn't help but smile when they saw it.
"Suxi met Grandpa, how many seniors... senior sisters?"
Qingling's voice sounded, and when Jiang Suxi finally saw Gou Liang, a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes, but she quickly put it behind her.
She straightened up, walked towards Yue Qian two steps at a time, and said happily: "I just heard that Brother Yue Qian is here too, I still can't believe it. Brother Yue Qian, I haven't seen you for many years, do you still remember Su Xi?" ?"
Gou Liang glanced at Yue Qian with a half-smile, the latter avoided Jiang Suxi's hand almost reflexively, and politely returned the salute, saying: "Junior Sister Jiang."
Jiang Suxi disobeyed and said, "Brother Yueqian is so lucky. I haven't seen you for five years but my sister refuses to call me?"
"Suxi." Seeing Yue Qian's embarrassed face, Mr. Jiang interrupted her, and said with a smile, "You are still immature. Now that you have reached the age of Ji, Invincible is also an adult. You should call him senior brother." , why are you still messing around like you were a child?"
"Oh, grandpa, brother Yue Qian doesn't like people calling him invincible, don't you always remember to change your words?"
She hugged Old Jiang's arm and laughed at him.
Mr. Jiang's eyes were full of tenderness. Looking at the delicate and pure granddaughter, he patted her hand and said, "Okay, it's Grandpa's fault. Several distinguished guests have come from afar, and it's getting late. On your behalf Grandfather sent some guests to the wing room." Turning to several people, he said: "Later, the old man will hold a banquet in the mansion to welcome you, and then we can have a good talk."
Several people obeyed.
Because Yue Qian and the others were all children of the same generation, they didn't arrange separate courtyards according to the sect, but lived in one place, but it was difficult for Gou Liang to arrange.
Jiang Suxi said: "Senior sister, I didn't know that there was such a peerless beauty in the martial arts world. It's a great fortune to see my sister today. Suxi has never been out of the island since she grew up. Why don't you go to the island?" Live in the same place with Suxi, how about talking to Suxi about the scenery outside the island?"
Gou Liang asked with a smile: "Sleep together, and have a long talk?"
Jiang Suxi was taken aback, then smiled even more happily, "So, of course it's best—"
"Nonsense!"
Yue Qian interrupted their joke, pulled Gou Liang back to his side, glared at him, and then apologized to Jiang Suxi: "I'm sorry, Junior Sister Jiang, it's enough for him to live with me, don't bother to arrange it."
Jiang Suxi opened her eyes wide in astonishment, "But..."
Situ Bai was equally astonished at his request, his mouth was so wide that he could almost stuff a fist into it.
He Cong and the other three seemed to be familiar with it, and they had been doing this all the way. Even though the rules of the Jiang family were stricter than when they stayed in the inn, no one could control the head disciple of the Nanshan Sword Sect and his " Confidante" live in the same room, right
After entering the room, Gou Liang looked at him jokingly: "Hero Yue broke another girl's heart."
Yue Qian opened his lips and asked rhetorically, "Who is this thanks to?"
Gou Liang's smiling face suddenly withdrew, and the sharp look in his brows and eyes was like a thousand miles of ice, and he snorted coldly: "Why, do you think I hinder you? Brother Yue Qian?"
Yue Qian's face suddenly turned red, he was used to Gou Liang's unpredictable personality, and he begged for mercy: "Brother Ye, don't tease me, I only met her a few times when I was young, we can't talk about friendship. "
"If the little girl heard you say that, I'm afraid the island would be flooded with tears."
"Brother Ye is talking nonsense again."
Yue Qian had no choice but to tell him what to do, and he said that he was going to the next room to talk to Situ Bai about the family affairs, so that he could take care of himself—although the Jiang Mansion was heavily guarded, it was hard to say that there were no demon cultists in it.
Gou Liang waved his hand, indicating that he understood.
"Big brother!"
Situ Bai glanced behind him, seeing that Gou Liang was not following him, he immediately leaned over to him and winked and said, "Brother, who is that girl? You?"
"It happened for a reason, don't worry about it." Yue Qian dealt with his curiosity roughly, and asked, "When did you come, what can Master say?"
There are a total of four direct disciples of Master Situ.
Among them, Yue Qian is the youngest, the second younger brother and the fourth younger sister are now over 30 years old, married and have children, Situ Bai is the third, Situ Changtian's biological son, who is already twenty-three years old this year. The reason why there is such an age gap is that Situ Changtian's acceptance of apprentices is only based on talent, not blood relatives - even Situ Bai showed his talent for practicing swords when he was nine years old, and he was in the same line with Situ Changtian's swordsmanship. He was formally accepted as an apprentice by his father.
Regardless of Yue Qian's young age, he has been mature and prudent since he was a child, and he has the prestige of a big brother.
So he expressed his unwillingness to talk more, so no matter how curious Situ Bai was, he had no choice but to press the button and answer his question honestly.
It turned out that Mr. Jiang's first letter of appeal for help was sent to Nanshan Sword Sect. After talking with Situ's sect leader secretly, he sent letters to Fanyin Pavilion and Jiuming Tower.
Therefore, Situ Bai arrived at Panlong Island one step earlier than them.
Situ Bai said: "Before I went out, my father specifically asked me to go south just to protect the grandparents and grandchildren of old Jiang. He told me not to be obsessed with fighting the Devil's Cult. I might lose the big because of small things. Besides, there is no other words."
Yue Qian nodded knowingly, "This time, I, Nanshan, will preside over the martial arts competition. If Mr. Jiang comes, he will be a distinguished guest. We should put his safety first."
Situ Bai hesitated for a moment, then said: "I see that Mr. Jiang's letter to father mentioned that you are Jiang's son-in-law, and father doesn't seem to have any intention of rejecting it. Senior brother, what are your plans..."
Yue Qian was stunned for a moment, and then said calmly: "Marriage is a major matter. Master will not disclose the intention of marriage with the Jiang family without asking my opinion. It will not be too late to discuss this matter when I go back. Besides, "Ling Xi Qin Score "It is the secret code of sound attack, which is of no benefit to our sword sect. Taking it will not only make the precious pearl dusty, but also make it easy to commit crimes. However, there are many heroes of the right age in Fanyin Pavilion who can match it. Take a step back and say, if Mr. Jiang can't trust others, so he decided to entrust his granddaughter to the master, isn't there still a junior brother?"
"Brother, don't you want to harm me, it will be terrible if Yuniang finds out!"
"Didn't Miss Qin always look down on you? Why did you develop skills and make her change her mind after I left the mountain for two months?"
"Haha, sincerity is as good as gold and stone. If you don't agree now, it doesn't mean you won't be willing in the future."
"If you put this perseverance on swordsmanship, Master won't always punish you."
"Brother, please forgive me..."
The two brothers and sisters talked and laughed very easily, and when Yue Qian returned to the room, the smile in his eyes didn't fade away. Gou Liang raised his head from the embroidery, was slightly taken aback when he saw this, and then smiled and said, "Your brothers and sisters really have a good relationship."
"Growing up together, of course."
It can be said that it is precisely because of his presence that the four brothers and sisters have a strong relationship.
When Yue Qian was brought into the school, he was only two years old, just old enough to wield a small wooden sword.
His master only preaches and teaches and is very clumsy in caring for others, and his wife is weak and unable to do everything by herself. Yue Qian didn't like to get close to others since he was a child, and later he took in the next three apprentices one after another, and arranged for the four of them to live together, and the situation improved.
Yue Qian was almost brought up by his own junior and junior sisters who ate food and water. When Situ Bai was in his teens, he often ignored him as a senior brother, saying that he raised him with shit and piss. It means that he is his younger brother or simply his son. Later, he was beaten and cried a few times by the talented Yue Qian, and then he learned to be good.
The memories of his childhood sweetheart are full of warmth, just the opposite of the original owner.
Ye Gui survived the dark years in his childhood when he kept killing with his companions and fighting for his own chance to survive.
Gou Liang narrowed his needle and stood up, said flatly: "Yes, but I know that those who grew up together may also be enemies of life and death."
"Brother Ye, you..."
Yue Qian was startled by the coldness in his eyes, but Gou Liang interrupted his questioning with a smile, "Come here."
Yue Qian immediately had a bad feeling when he heard this sound, but Gou Liang didn't send him away this time, instead he handed him the clothes he had just taken off the embroidery frame: "Just try to see if it fits you well."
"Give it to me?"
Yue Qian was both surprised and delighted, he couldn't believe it at all.
Gou Liang raised his eyebrows, "Why, you don't want it?"
"Yes, of course!"
Yue Qian snatched it into his hands, as if he had found a treasure and seemed afraid that he would go back on his word, but he didn't want him to worry too much - Gou Liang not only embroidered a coat for him, but also shoes, socks, dark clothes and belt complete.
Yue Qian also saw this dragon and phoenix embroidered school uniform with black as the main color when Gou Liang was embroidering it. He only thought that he was tired of wearing red and wanted to change to a new pattern, but he never thought that it was embroidered for himself. After Yue Qian changed, he unconsciously straightened his chest a little more. For no reason, he felt that he seemed to be much lighter. He looked down at Gou Liang who bent over to tie his belt, and felt that his palms were sweating for a moment.
"how?"
He smiled at Gou Liang, showing his signature gentleness.
But Gou Liang frowned, pinched his face and pulled it from side to side, and said disgustedly: "Don't laugh, you're so ugly."
Yue Qian's smiling face froze, and the smile that had been hanging on his face for many years and almost turned into a mask gradually faded away, revealing his most authentic self—
Aloof, indifferent, profound.
He looked at Gou Liang quietly, his eyes revealed a tenderness that contradicted his own temperament, it was a heartbeat that he hadn't even noticed.
Such a him is simply... handsome beyond the sky.
Gou Liang's heart beat a few beats faster, his face flushed a little, he coughed lightly, and said, "As expected, black suits you."
"Really, unfortunately, this is not suitable for the head disciple of Nanshan Sword Sect."
Yue Qian smiled, caressing the cuff with the gold embroidery hidden.
He left home with a sword as a companion since he was a child, and he almost became one with the sword—no matter how much blood was stained, it was still cold and sharp.
He is too precocious, destined not to have the same ideas as his peers, and those simple pleasures are boring to him. When he created the first move and realized the first sword intent, his master was worried. Because his sword was too ruthless, too calm, and too fierce. It was clear that he was not blood-stained, but he was already full of hostility.
In order to correct his character, his master and wife spent a lot of energy, and it took many years to make him talk and laugh freely and learn to smile.
He is now accustomed to wearing a suit of white, with a folding fan that is completely incompatible with a swordsman, which is the proud work of his teacher's wife.
She said that the romantic attitude of a young man in the world is all in him.
Later, she died of illness shortly after giving birth to Situ Shuang, and it was Yue Qian who was most worried about her during her lifetime.
Yue Qian didn't want her to still worry about him under the nine springs, and he insisted on self-discipline, who had always cooperated with Master and Master's image shaping plan. After a long time, no matter what the inside was, the edges and corners of the outside had been polished and smoothed, making today's "Southern Jian Yueqian is as dignified as jade."
At this time, he was a little uneasy to expose himself in front of Gou Liang, but the self reflected in Gou Liang's eyes became extremely strange. Fortunately, Gou Liang made no secret of his admiration and satisfaction, allowing Yue Qian to calm down the slightest bit of discomfort.
Gou Liang admired it for a long time, until Jiang Suxi was about to enter the guest courtyard in the surveillance, then he looked away and changed a set of clothes for himself.
Fully dressed, he raised his arms and twirled around, smiling at Yue Qian: "Does it look good?"
Yue Qian's Adam's apple rolled several times before he recovered his voice, looked away and said, "It's very beautiful."
Gou Liang walked up to him, "Then why don't you look at me?"
The redness at the tip of Yue Qian's ears instantly dyed his entire face, spreading down his neck, and his palms were again wet with sweat.
It wasn't that he didn't want to watch it, but he didn't dare to watch it. He never thought that one day there would be a man who would make him feel fascinated. This is too hard to say, Yue Qian is at a loss, but fortunately Situ Bai rescued him: "Brother, Junior Sister Jiang is here to invite you and...cough, Miss Ye, you can rest well."
Yue Qian hurriedly responded.
Tang Nuo, who was already ready for the banquet, whispered to his senior brother: "Our invincible brother doesn't know what he is doing hiding in the house with Miss Ye, and Junior Sister Jiang yelled so many times outside and didn't answer—"
Yue Qian pushed the door and walked out, stepping into everyone's sight with Gou Liang one after the other, Tang Nuo's voice stopped suddenly, his eyes widened and he took a deep breath.
I saw Yue Qian wearing a narrow-sleeved black robe, with a tall and straight figure and a domineering temperament. He wears a red girdle around his waist, in front of him is a golden dragon and auspicious clouds, and behind him are phoenix wings and tail feathers;
And Gou Liang was wearing a wide-sleeved bright red floor-length dress with a slim waist and a slim waist. She looked like a noble peony, without any rouge, she was already breathtakingly beautiful. He wears a black belt around his waist. In front of him is a phoenix bird with its head raised and spreading its wings, and behind it is embroidered with a dragon tail and cirrus cloud—it just fits into a whole with the dragon and phoenix on Yue Qian's body, showing the state of the dragon and phoenix hugging their necks.
The embroidery is lifelike and gorgeous to the point of breathtaking.
They stood together, with an invisible tacit understanding, and smiled slightly as they looked at each other, there was no room for a third person to intervene.
It's a heaven and earth design, it's better to be.
Zhu Fengyi was the first to come back to his senses, looked at He Cong Tangnuo and Situ Bai who were stunned to the left and right, and then looked at the intention of fighting before, but now they have completely lost their fighting spirit and just stared at the two clothes Jiang Suxi in a daze...
He secretly sighed, "I don't know what it means to fight without blood."
