The flowing water rushes to the east, and the clear water of the Wei River rushes to the far away. Xianyang in the distance is half shrouded in light mist, making it a little blurry to see. There is only one unclear city tower and palace standing there, and the paths between the hillsides are different.
On the bank of the river, a few boatmen can be vaguely seen ferrying across the vast river, and the shallow grass on the river bank hangs low, barely reaching the feet.
Standing by the river, the two seemed to be watching the long flow eastward for a while.
Gu Nan was dressed in white, with a mask on his face, and Wuge was hanging quietly at his waist. She had already taught Jiang Qing that sword, and she came to see him off today.
When she walked to the bank of the Wei River, she was a little stunned. It seemed that she had bid farewell to many people on this river bank, and said goodbye to many people.
Some came back, some never came back.
Jiang Qing was wearing a commoner dress, with a sword on his back, slanting his back on his body, holding his hands in front of his body, squinting his eyes at the Weihe River, the sloping sails on the river, and the mountains in the distance, half-smiling. road.
"It's really a magnificent scene, just to say goodbye."
He said and looked around: "Sir, do you have any wine?"
"No." Gu Nan looked at the river, and a few birds flew across the sky as the waves surged.
"I quit a long time ago."
Jiang Qing looked at Gu Nan looking down at the river end in the distance, not knowing what she was thinking, probably who she was thinking about.
At least he is.
Smiled for a while, as if to break the quiet atmosphere: "Wouldn't it be a lot duller to see you off without wine?"
He untied his wine jug from his waist, and took a sip with a smile: "Fortunately, I have it myself."
Warming the wine into his throat, he looked at the riverside and didn't know what to do with his feelings.
The two stood quietly by the river for a while, each thinking about their own things.
"Why do you learn sword?" Gu Nan asked suddenly.
Jiang Qing squinted his eyes halfway, hearing the sound of surging waves in his ears, smiled and said as if it was a matter of course: "Because I like swords."
"It's not just these, you have your own reasons." Gu Nan didn't look at Jiang Qing, and said lightly, taking it for granted.
If you are so persistent about a sword, it won't be the three-foot green front that is persistent, but the hearts of the people who use the sword.
Jiang Qing didn't say anything, didn't refute, and didn't admit it.
Until he suddenly looked at the hazy mountains and rivers in the mist, and asked, "Sir, do you know that Weiguo?"
Weiguo, Gu Nan seems to remember this name, there has been no war in the past ten years, but the war will never stop in this troubled world.
A year ago, Qin State sent troops to attack Wei, and the attack seemed to be Wei, a subsidiary state of Wei.
"That's a nice place." Jiang Qing said softly, the corners of his lips curled up, as if he had seen the scene of Weiguo.
His eyes blurred, and he took another sip of wine: "I practice swords to save someone."
This is all his attachment to the sword, it is very simple, but enough to cost him his life.
He raised his brows and shook the wine gourd in his hand lightly: "Mr. may not believe it, but she looks a bit prettier than you, sir."
He looked at Gu Nan.
Hanging the wine gourd back around his waist, he laughed at himself, and then bowed deeply.
"Using such a rogue method to ask for a sword from the master, Qing knows that he is despicable and has lost the swordsman's grasp."
In order to learn the sword, he could sacrifice his life, not to mention that bit of self-esteem.
All he had to do was to learn the sword and do the last thing he could do.
"I thought my husband wouldn't teach me."
He lowered his eyes and smiled again: "Perhaps, only people like Mr. can teach me."
The person who had been laughing all the time had a trembling voice this time: "I can't repay the grace of teaching you."
He gently lifted the hem of his clothes, bent his legs slightly, and knelt down to the ground.
A hand was pressing on his shoulder, preventing him from kneeling down.
"I have already taught you the sword. If you want to use this sword, your body won't last long. You can do it yourself."
After speaking, he turned and left.
She didn't know that Jiang Qing had another name, Jing Ke.
If she knew, she might draw a sword, but she didn't know.
Only Jiang Qing was left alone by the Weishui, smiling sadly, watching the long flow in the sky quietly.
With a sword on his back and his own wine gourd, he gradually walked away.
He will practice this sword, and then die after this sword.
There used to be a boy and a girl in Weiguo. The boy loved swords and wine, and the girl liked to watch the boy dance sword and drink. Until the iron hooves of Qin came, the mountains and rivers were broken. The boy's sword was picked up and the girl was taken captive. Just before the boy passed out, he heard someone say that this girl can be offered to the king.
Gu Nan walked back to Xianyang City along the path, and when she was approaching the gate of the city, an old man walked towards her.
He was wearing a brown short jacket and a pair of straw sandals on his feet. He is stooped, half-hunchbacked, with his hands behind his back.
When the old man walked in front of her, he stopped and looked at her quietly.
Gu Nan also stopped, looked at the old man suspiciously, and asked, "Old man, what's the matter?"
The old man didn't answer, but looked into her eyes seriously, and finally his eyes fell on Wuge on Gu Nan's waist.
He shook his head, as if talking to himself: "This sword is too powerful."
Gu Nan's eyes were puzzled: "Do you have anything to say, sir?"
The old man glanced at Gu Nan for the last time, but walked away from her, and left a sentence when he left: "Your sword is too fierce, you may become the most fierce in the world, be careful, don't let others harm yourself .”
Gu Nan was taken aback, frowned, and looked back at the path, but the old man had already left.
He looked down at Wuge's waist again, put his hands on it, and after a while, he relaxed his brows and gave a faint smile.
So what if the world is the most vicious, my master has recited nearly half of the world's murder crimes.
What is good, what is evil, in this world, can you still distinguish these things
She stopped thinking about that weird old man and walked towards Xianyang.
After Gu Nan left, the old man appeared there again, with his hands behind his back, looking at her leaving back with a heavy expression.
That "sword" can really be said to be a fierce soldier in the world, bearing a heinous debt of blood.
Thinking of this, he shook his head, such a fierce sword, it is better not to be included in the sword manual.
The old man left silently, as if he was looking for another sword. As for whether he was looking for the real sword or the person who used it, it is unknown.
Lu Buwei was dismissed from the position of Prime Minister, because of his meritorious service when he was the first king, and he has also had good governance since he became Prime Minister. Many ministers wrote to plead for mercy, but Ying Zheng didn't kill him in the end, but sent him out of Xianyang and let him go to his fief in Hebei.
Lu Buwei left Xianyang and went up the Weihe River. He looked back at Xianyang City, which should be the last time.
