Chapter 50 Plum Blossom
Click.
The scissors squeaked softly, a branch dotted with snow plums, and the branches overflowing with light fragrance fell to the ground. The force of the impact reached, the branches still trembled, the white and flawless petals fluttered a few petals, and when the wind sent, the snow-like white plums fluttered under the winter sun, and the courtyard with the slanting shadows and branches became more elegant.
Northern warriors like Huai, Jiangnan warriors love plum.
Plum blossoms are not afraid of cold, more fragrant after snow, and have a noble character. They are often loved by pranksters and writers. They are called gentlemen in flowers. They just complement the swords of gentlemen in soldiers, and they are also very suitable for Jiangnan culture, which has always liked elegance.
Therefore, in the south of the Yangtze River, the swordsman family loves plum blossoms. The yard is full of plants that are not planted, and there is always a decent bonsai. Among them, Luojian Villa is the most important. Not only are plum blossoms planted up and down the villa, but the Luojia family emblem is even more like the five-petaled plum blossom, which means being proud and standing tall and strong.
This plum blossom, whose branches are being pruned, is a well-cut pot of white and blue water. The petals of this flower are as white as the first snow, and the stamens are like swords in the wind. The petals are born with peculiar patterns, like pleats and waves, and when the cold wind blows, they always open in the wind, trembling layers of white waves, imitating the clouds, if the wind returns to the snow, it is the best among the cold plums. This flower is also called the residual snow and the water because of its attractive and cold quality like ice and snow.
The pruning man's skill and vision are very extraordinary. A delicate and fine scissors that were almost used in women's boudoirs actually looked like broad-cut scissors. This person did not move quickly, but the bonsai that he had cut stood in a row.
He cut left and right, gradually forming.
If anyone came to look at this Bai Bi Zhaoshui, they would probably not recognize that it was the same elegant and faint plum blossom from yesterday.
And if anyone recognizes this person, I am afraid they will be scared half to death.
Because this person really shouldn't appear so calmly. He should not engage in any activity in the sun at this time. Even if there were reasons why he had to do it, there was absolutely no reason to prune plum blossoms quietly in the courtyard.
He is the ghostly thief who is feared by the world as the two heroes of northern Xinjiang - Aples.
It is said that Aples is a world-shattering martial arts prodigy. Although it is also related to his childhood experience, he did not encounter any difficulties that could not be solved in his martial arts practice. This situation is also commonly known as the world's general mastery of all eighteen martial arts.
As I see it now, even if I don't know if he is really proficient in weapons, at least this pair of scissors makes it excellent. He is burly and sturdy, with an iron tower-like height, it really doesn't look like he is good at such fine work. His hands are large and thick, covered with thick and hard calluses. In addition to his tall body, compared to a plum blossom in a pot with drooping branches and willows swaying in the wind, his skin seems to be thicker than the trunk of this plum blossom.
As far as he did it very well, the little scissors were even more handy, as if they had been used for a lifetime in his hands.
Aples calmly and slowly pruned the bonsai, and gradually the branches became less and less at the back.
"Report!"
A stern voice like the north wind suddenly sounded, and the atmosphere in the courtyard was scattered. A big man fell like an eagle and knelt down in front of Aples.
The ghosts and mythical creatures have a clear class, the ghosts and ghosts, the bulls, ghosts, snakes and gods each receive a flag, and they are divided into senior and deputy positions. Each of the four is the flag owner, and each of them has a deputy flag owner.
The man who came is the deputy flag owner of the sprite flag, named Ying Gui. There are many heroes in the northern border. Except for the flag of the snake god, there are not a few brave and good warriors in the remaining three flags, and this man named the plague ghost is one of the best. Among the four ghosts and mythical creatures, sprites are the most murderous, so many of their subordinates are also infected with this habit, and they are an evil army. The plague ghost was the one who accepted and inherited this habit most thoroughly, and because of this, he became the deputy banner owner of the sprite.
Behind him was a blood-stained ghost-headed sword, and his murderous aura seemed to have just returned from the battlefield. However, as he knelt down, he felt the fragrance of flowers charming, and when he raised his head again, the murderous aura on his body was infected by this ubiquitous tranquil atmosphere and gradually disappeared.
The plague ghost couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart. The martial arts masters have the most courageous moves. If the murderous aura disappears like this time, what will be the fight? If you don't do it, you have already lost 90%. I thought to myself: This floral fragrance can actually restrain the murderous aura of swords and swords. It can be said that it is a soldier who subdues people without fighting. The master is really clever.
The plague ghost was distracted for a moment by the atmosphere, but at least he regained his senses by virtue of his inner strength. He was here to report, and he didn't dare to stay silent for a long time, so he quickly bowed his head and said respectfully: "Master, the flag owner has news from Changzhou, please allow your subordinates to report."
Aples did not answer, but looked calm, pruning the branches quietly. He pondered for a while, frowned for a while, cautiously as if he was fighting with a peerless master, and after a long time he stretched his brows and smiled, seeming to be addicted to it, very leisurely. In the thin winter air, the sunlight slants down, and the sunlight, standing shadow, white plum, golden scissors, cold wind, and Aples seem to be integrated and inseparable. An action, a movement, gives people the feeling of being inseparable from nature, completely entering a space that is hard to see.
At this moment, Aples was clearly standing in front of him, but the plague ghost felt that there was no one in front of him, that is, there was only Xiaoyuan Hanmei, and Dongyang stood proudly. Nothing more than that.
Ying Gui Xin Dao: In the past, the master of the Master Dao was so insane, but he didn't know how powerful it was. Today, I know that the master's magical power has passed through the sky and the earth, and has entered the realm of heaven, and his gestures can be so unfathomable. If I were my master's enemy, I wouldn't even need to take a single move. Just by standing here, people would have lost the will to fight.
The plague ghost didn't dare to disturb the master's interest, but just waited silently.
For a long time, the voice of Aples came lingeringly.
"You know, this plum blossom is the gentleman in the flower. In the Book of Changes, there are so-called Yuan, Heng, Li, and Zhen, which correspond to the plum blossom, which is exactly the four characteristics of the plum blossom."
The plague ghost is from the northern border, and he doesn't have much ink. How does he know these many famous things, and he doesn't know why the master is suddenly interested in Nanmanzi's things. He shook his head in surprise, "I don't know."
Aples looked at the basin of white and blue water in front of him, and seemed to be yearning for the authentic: "'Zhiheng', 'Yingxie', 'Rows', 'Aoxue', this is the Aohan in Luojian Villa Four swords, really good."
The plague ghost doesn't know what's going on. They are robbers, so why bother to care so much, and said loudly: "If the master likes it, we can ask for it from Luojian Villa, forgive them and they dare not give it. Seriously don't hand it over. , let's steal it. Isn't it just four swords? With the master's magic, how can you not succeed?"
"It's ridiculous, the four Aohan swords that can be grabbed are not the four Aohan swords."
The plague ghost said puzzled: "Why is this?"
Aples shook his head silently, smiling without saying a word.
The plague ghost gradually realized that the master was really unfathomable. Suddenly, I admire Qi Mei and other ghosts and monsters even more. Not to mention anything else, that is, being able to understand the master's mind, no one else can compare to it.
Among the four ghosts and mythical creatures, sprites and snake gods are resourceful and good at figuring out, and they are not sure about Aples' mind, but also have seven or eight points of accuracy. Niu Gui is the only one of the four monsters who has been passed on "Ghost Nerve", and he is the first warrior under his command to charge into battle. His special status is self-evident.
As for the ghost, let alone. The fact that the head of the eldest sister is the master's woman has long been an open secret. There are only two people left to enter the room and show off their love. The brothers will open seven or eighty tables to celebrate. As soon as the ghosts and mythical creatures saw Qi Mei, the 'Hello, sister-in-law' was held in their throats for a long time.
Aples was in a daze when he saw the plague ghost. Knowing that the idiot had thought of something else, he smiled and said, "Since there is something to report, let's talk about it."
The epidemic ghost came back to his senses: "Yes! Lord Sphinx has arrived in Bishui Town, Changzhou, and acted according to the plan. He must let the Lord of Luobao stay in Jiangnan without face that night."
Hearing this, Aples lowered his eyes and said, "This is worth considering. Lord Yeluo is known as a rare expert in Jiangnan. Although he was not officially included in the ranking of masters due to the scarcity of battle records, his deeds are in There are a lot of martial arts in the south of the Yangtze River. I tell you to be careful, you can't succeed once, look for other opportunities to get rid of it, don't worry, lose your wife and lose your troops. The most important thing is to lead him away from Jiangnan, don't stop I'm waiting for something big."
The plague ghost couldn't help but ask: "Master, is Lord Yeluo that powerful?"
"Hmph." Aples smiled slightly, put down the scissors, and said softly, "I don't know."
"what?"
"This person rose like a comet in the Jiangnan martial arts six years ago, and almost no one calls himself an enemy wherever he goes. Hangzhou is a huge area, and no one can control the White King and Seven Crowns, but let him Yeluobao be the master of the house. Squeezed among the old foxes like the White King and the Seven Crowns, he was able to do it with ease, and his development was prosperous. But so far, there are very few detailed records of his duel or defeat of a certain sect, and it is an unsolved case."
"That's no big deal."
"But I've never heard that he has failed." Aples paced slowly, shook his head and said, "Walking through the rivers and lakes, the word invincibility, is it an easy match? When I was young, was it not full of failures? Yes? When the enemy is careless, he is cruel to himself, you must keep this in mind."
The plague ghost was a little surprised. I thought to myself, with the master's earth-shattering ability, why did he always act in a forward-looking manner.
Suddenly remembered something: Ouch, not good! Could it be that the internal injury occurred when the owner and the Shaolin bald donkey faced each other! The bald donkey is said to be an extremely powerful expert in the Central Plains. Although both of them vomited blood at the time, the master was so strong that he had to endure it for a few days before the attack occurred, aggravating the internal injury a lot. I'm afraid it's not that the internal injury has not recovered yet! It's also true that it's only been a few days, and it's really not that fast to recover.
"Since the sprite is going to deal with him, be careful yourself. What is he going to do."
"Yes, the flag owner intends to do this..."
Aples frowned when he heard it: "Murdering with a knife is very his style, but this strategy alone cannot guarantee victory."
"The banner owner has another plan, a two-pronged approach. It's not just one move."
Then he said his plan again, and Aples was relieved: "He can think about it. He has changed his face again this time, what's the makeup like?"
"Yes, it is said that the banner owner was dressed up as a surnamed Wang."

Changzhou Bishui Town, this town is the town where the emperor and others are now.
To be more precise, it should actually be the town where they turned upside down.
