There’s No Such Thing as Love in a Swordsman’s Heart

Chapter 51: bedtime stories x

Views:

Li Hanshan didn't want to hear Jiang Su tell stories.

Jiang Su just said the beginning, and he began to feel a little strange, murlocs? What is a fishman? Are shrimp soldiers and crabs that kind of murlocs

He naturally conceived an image of a fish-headed human-foot in his mind, which, combined with what Jiang Su said afterward... The picture suddenly became a little strange.

But Jiang Su wanted to tell a story, and no matter how weird it sounded, he would continue to listen.

Li Hanshan really climbed into the bed, lay down quietly, looked at Jiang Su, and waited for Jiang Su to continue to tell his fish head story.

"There used to be a mermaid, she rescued a prince and fell in love with him." Jiang Su looked serious, looking at the pages he had written, and reciting carefully, "She wanted to go ashore to find the prince, but her The appearance is very different from that of humans, so she found a female alchemist in the sea and asked her to cast a spell to change her appearance."

Although Jiang Su changed the order of the two words murloc, in Li Hanshan's heart, the change in the way of thinking would actually not make any difference.

His mind was full of a strange animal with a fat carp body and two bare legs, who rescued a human prince from the rough sea.

But how do you save the human prince without a hand

So the picture in Li Hanshan's mind turned into a murloc carrying a prince, striding his bare legs with all his might, struggling to get close to the coast in the storm.

So hard, this must be true love.

"The lady alchemist gave her the appearance of a human at the cost of the mermaid's voice, but when she walked on land, her legs would hurt like a knife." Jiang Su turned a page, squinted and continued to read what he wrote on the paper "The alchemist also told her that if the prince married someone else, she would turn into a bubble and disappear."

Li Hanshan didn't understand anymore.

Even the prince, that marriage is all a tool for marriage, and the daughter-in-law is arranged, how could it be possible to marry a random person.

What's more, this person is a fat carp head.

"She went to the land full of hope, and came to the prince's side, but found that the prince regarded other women as saviors, and they were getting married." Jiang Su finally finished the story, he was very happy, and even spoke fast Get up, "Her sister prayed to the female alchemist, in exchange for a dagger, as long as she kills the prince with the dagger, she can go back to the sea."

Li Hanshan couldn't help but start thinking about other questions.

Wait, a fat carp is trying to murder the prince in the palace, can it change back to its original appearance after killing it? Wouldn't she have suffocated on the spot on the shore

The palace is so far from the sea! How can she get back into the sea

Do not.

Li Hanshan suddenly remembered something very important.

There are no carp in the sea.

"But she can't do it." Jiang Su closed the pages and put them back into his arms, saying, "So after dawn, she turned into a bubble and disappeared."

It is rare for him to have the patience to tell stories to others, and he still speaks so completely before and after. Although he still did not meet the 300 words required by Hua Shiqing, he could no longer compile it. So particular.

And since this was his first time telling a story, he certainly looked forward to Li Hanshan's reaction.

Jiang Su looked at Li Hanshan seriously and asked, "How is it?"

Li Hanshan was startled, and subconsciously answered his own experience.

He couldn't speak directly about the fish-headed man, lest Jiang Su think he was making trouble, so he had to think hard, and then said seriously: "I don't usually practice martial arts well, and I have to ask for help when I encounter a problem."

Jiang Su: "..."

"Love only affects the speed at which a person draws a sword." Li Hanshan carefully reviewed what Jiang Su said, changed his mouth, and said, "The speed at which a dagger is drawn."

Jiang Su: "..."

Although he thinks what Li Hanshan said is very reasonable, why... does it sound so unpleasant

Seeing that Jiang Su didn't speak, Li Hanshan thought that his analysis was wrong, so he thought hard, frowned and tried his best to add, "She can't speak, can't she write yet?"

Jiang Su: "Uh..."

"She should learn from Deputy Gang Master Fang, read and write well, and don't keep thinking about her children's private affairs." Li Hanshan said again, "If you don't kill the prince, it will become a bubble? But even if the prince suddenly wakes up and falls in love with him, There's no way to change the marriage, so wouldn't she have to die?"

Jiang Su: "Maybe... According to the legends from my family... At this time, I might need a kiss of true love... "

Li Hanshan: "True love... what?"

Jiang Su: "A sweetheart's kiss."

Li Hanshan understood: "It really is a fairy tale."

Jiang Su: "..."

Jiang Su took a deep breath and asked, "Are you sleepy?"

Li Hanshan shook his head.

Jiang Su brought him so many questions with a story, how could he still be sleepy.

He was very awake and just wanted to think about the problems Jiang Su brought him, but after all, he had never read the tips Hua Shiqing wrote to Jiang Su. He didn't know that if he refused to fall asleep, Jiang Su would tell him about it. Three full stories.

Jiang Su has a headache.

He went back and thought about it for a long time before he prepared such a story. Seriously, let him tell a love story? This is more difficult than getting him to perform at a martial arts conference to break a big stone in his chest.

Jiang Su can only fool.

Jiang Su: "Let me tell you another story."

He was about to speak, but Li Hanshan raised his hand to stop him, with a serious face, and said to him seriously: "Wait, I haven't figured out this story yet, there are too many questions."

Jiang Su: "..."

Jiang Su is tired.

Sorry, Hua Shiqing.

Although he really wanted to finish the three stories seriously, this kit was too embarrassing for him. This is really not a test that ordinary people can withstand. He just wanted to retreat and take the initiative to change a goal.

Anything is fine, just tell a story.

"Take your time and think about it, take a good rest." Jiang Su got up and prepared to leave, saying, "See you tomorrow."

Li Hanshan didn't feel any difference, just nodded seriously, and then continued to think about his fish-headed man in his mind.

Jiang Su returned to his residence with a heavy heart, thinking that tomorrow he would have to find Hua Shiqing for a good bag, while taking out a pen and paper, he planned to write a letter to his senior brother Zhang Wenxue.

Now he doesn't know who is a traitor in the Wulin League, so he can't directly ask the Wulin League about some things. After all, there is no one he trusts in the Wulin League, but fortunately he still has Zhang Wenxue.

At least he knew that no matter what happened, Zhang Wenxue would never betray him. He knew it personally in this life, and it was the same in the book.

If he wanted to investigate the Wulin League, Zhang Wenxue would naturally be his excellent helper.

These days, he and Zhang Wenxue often exchanged letters, mostly talking about swordsmanship. Zhang Wenxue seemed to have become extremely diligent and eager to learn overnight, and Jiang Su couldn't help but be very satisfied with his actions.

He feels that this is what a sect leader should do, practice martial arts to strengthen his body, and then take charge of the entire sect. The rest of the children should be put aside for the time being. There are still so many things to do, so get busy with work first. Good to say. …

Jiang Su was busy writing letters, and after thinking about the fish-headed man in the big night, Li Hanshan finally remembered the bulging kit that Hua Shiqing gave him.

According to Hua Shiqing, it was his lifelong research there, which would be of great benefit to Li Hanshan's pursuit of Jiang Su.

Li Hanshan felt that this was really a good thing.

But Jiang Su also said that he can't fall in love in the past 20 years, so do you want to keep this kit until 20 years later

Twenty years later, who knows if this kit can still be effective.

Thinking of this, a strange thought appeared in Li Hanshan's heart.

Isn't Jiang Su always thinking about matching others, thinking that this will be of great benefit to his martial arts progress

But Jiang Su himself has no experience, and it is always easy to make mistakes, but if Jiang Su had Hua Shiqing's secret book in his hand, wouldn't the whole thing be different

Thinking of this, Li Hanshan finally felt joy in his heart, and could not wait to give this kit to Jiang Su overnight.

But it was getting late, and he was afraid that it was not appropriate to go in the past, so Li Hanshan waited another night, and when it was dawn the next day, he took the kit and ran to Jiang Su's house.

Jiang Su was just about to send a letter to Zhang Wenxue, and when he saw Li Hanshan coming to him, he asked Li Hanshan to walk with him, and said to Li Hanshan: "Follow me later to see Hua Shi. Qing, let him give us a replacement bag."

Li Hanshan clenched the bulging bag in his hand, and for a while, he was a little nervous.

He wanted to give this to Jiang Su, but how could he explain why Hua Shiqing gave him the secret book he had learned all his life

If he said it directly, wouldn't it be equivalent to expressing his intentions with Jiang Su on the spot? But if he didn't say it outright... for no reason, why did Hua Shiqing give him this kind of thing

He still remembered what Jiang Su said to He Lingcheng that day. He felt that if he said it directly, Jiang Su would be unhappy if he was not in the balance, and he had to have a suitable excuse—

Jiang Su frowned and asked him, "What are you thinking about? Why haven't you spoken?"

"Yesterday, Hua Shiqing gave me a kit, saying that it was what he had learned in his life." Li Hanshan lied without changing his face, "He said that he wanted to repay you and me for saving my life, and let me give this kit to you. , it will definitely be of great benefit to your martial arts."

He felt that he had really changed.

In the past, he felt frightened when he told a lie, but now he made up such a big lie, but his face was still the same. He couldn't tell whether it was good or bad. Anyway, as long as Jiang Su could accept this thing, how would the process be? It doesn't really matter what it should be.

Hearing what he said, Jiang Su was really surprised, but he nodded slightly and said, "It turns out that Hua Shiqing is so attentive."

After saying these words, he reached out and took the stuffed bag from Li Hanshan, but before they could open it and take a look at the contents, they had already arrived at the location of the pigeon cage in Linlang Pavilion.

Jiang Su and Linlangge borrowed a pigeon to send a letter. He was still tying the letter holder to the leg of the pigeon, but someone hurried over and said with Jiang Su with a smile on his face: "Jiang Shaoxia, Young Master has me over here. Let me tell you, your brother is here."

Jiang Su: "..."

Jiang Su's hand for sending the letter stopped.

He was stunned for a while before he regained his senses, but he still didn't believe what he heard, so he frowned and asked the man, "My brother?"

The servant nodded and said, "It's Sect Master Zhang."

But Jiang Su really didn't understand why Zhang Wenxue suddenly appeared here. There are so many affairs in this door, and it is hundreds of miles away from here. Why did Zhang Wenxue suddenly come here

He had countless doubts in his heart, and after receiving the letter, he hurried over with the servant, but he really saw Zhang Wenxue sitting in the hall, drinking tea with Bai Yusheng and others, while a little anxious, he kept facing the door. Look.

When he saw Jiang Su appear at the door, he breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't care that Bai Yusheng was still talking to him, he got up, walked to Jiang Su in a few steps, and took Jiang Su's hand.

He hadn't seen Jiang Su for several months. He first carefully examined Jiang Su's appearance. Seeing that he had never lost weight, nor seemed to have been injured, he seemed to be in good spirits, so he was a little relieved, but he was still used to saying, "Skinny. It's a little bit, and it's time to make up for it."

Jiang Su was at a loss and asked directly, "Why did you come here, senior brother?"

He looked at the room besides Zhang Wenxue, there were several disciples of the Zhishui Sword Sect, and even Qi Du was here. He couldn't understand what was going on to make Zhang Wenxue rush in such a hurry. come over.

Zhang Wenxue explained, "I'm not very relieved that the leader of the Sheng alliance said that something happened here, and that Fu Shenyi and the deputy leader Fang came to help..."

But if it wasn't for the fact that he heard that Jiang Su was here, and went to some ghost market, everyone knew about it, and offended the owner of the ghost market. He was worried that Jiang Su would have an accident, and the rest of the people would not let him wait. Came all the way here.

"I already got the key." Jiang Su said, "Senior brother, haven't you received the news?"

Zhang Wenxue said, "I heard that someone wanted to assassinate you last night."

Jiang Su nodded. Except for Bai Yusheng, everyone present knew that Sun Lin and the other masters of the right way were among those who came to assassinate him last night. He had to avoid Bai Yusheng and lead Zhang Wenxue to the place. On the side, he whispered to Zhang Wenxue what happened last night.

Zhang Wenxue was very surprised.

He did not expect that someone in the Wulin League was also involved in this matter, and that person tried to attack Jiang Su. He knew that Sheng Hechen had relied heavily on Sun Lin in the past, and if Sun Lin was bribed today, all the secrets in the Wulin League would be Accident, I am afraid that all have been leaked out by him.

But Jiang Su didn't want him to bring this matter back to the Wulin League to inform Sheng Hechen. He was still worried that there were other traitors in the Wulin League besides Sun Lin, and this news should not be shared for the time being.

Zhang Wenxue also understands what he thinks. He should take this matter, but he is very worried because he knows that Jiang Su is in such a dangerous situation, not to mention that Jiang Su will go to the Demon Sect in a day, even if he is here today. Chu and Zhang Wenxue met, and the two of them only had one day's effort to reminisce.

And since talking about what happened last night, Jiang Su naturally has one more thing to tell Zhang Wenxue.

Li Hanshan's identity.

He felt that this kind of thing was really hidden for a long time. Zhang Wenxue would know Li Hanshan's identity sooner or later. In this case, Jiang Su might as well tell him directly about this matter.

He hesitated, maybe it was the first time he showed Zhang Wenxue such a look, and for a while, Zhang Wenxue was also at a loss.

"What else do you want to say?" Zhang Wenxue asked, "Just say what you want to say, senior brother won't blame you."

Jiang Su had no choice but to say, "Mu Yichuan's identity..."

Zhang Wenxue thought he was struggling with something. He had heard from Fang Yuanluo about Mu Yichuan's identity, saying that this person was a member of the Demon Sect, but Fang Yuanluo also said that Mu Yichuan was not a bad person. Therefore, although Zhang Wenxue was very tasty, he never sent a letter to dissuade Jiang Su.

As for making friends, he believed that Jiang Su had his own judgment.

"Although he is a member of the Demon Sect, he has never done anything evil, so it's fine for you to be friends with him." Zhang Wenxue said, "It's just that this matter needs to be concealed a little to prevent others from saying too much—"

Jiang Su: "He is the young master of the Demon Sect."

Zhang Wenxue: "…"

Jiang Su: "It's that Li Hanshan, who is highly skilled in the Demon Sect."

Zhang Wenxue: "…"

Zhang asked Xue: "What?!"

Zhang Wenxue's voice was too loud, and he attracted a few people to look here in a hurry. Fu Wenxiao saw their expressions, and he already had a guess in his heart. He felt that Jiang Su told Zhang Wenxue Li Hanshan's identity. He pulled Fang Yuanluo and walked over together, trying to persuade Zhang Wenxue.

Zhang Wenxue lowered his voice, but he still couldn't believe it. He pulled Jiang Su and asked, "Is he Li Hanshan? The father he always said was Xie Zeli?!"

Jiang Su nodded and said, "What he said wasn't a lie—"

Zhang Wenxue interrupted him: "He is the young master of the Demon Sect, not an ordinary member of the Demon Sect. Have you ever thought about how others would talk about you if you were known to outsiders at this time?"

It just so happened that Fu Wenxiao came up and said, "People you know won't care, and what strangers think will be relevant."

Zhang Wenxue turned to him, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Not to mention the young master of the demon sect, who have had good results with the elders of the demon sect throughout the ages?"

"But if others want to hunt down the two of them, how many will they succeed?" Fu Wenxiao said, "In the past, those people ended up miserably. Most of them were expelled from their divisions and hunted down for the Wulin League. But head Zhang, you will Is Jiang Shaoxia expelled from the division?"

Zhang Wenxue: "...No."

Not only did he not, but Zhang Wenxue knew that Sheng Hechen should and would not ask people to hunt down Jiang Su.

Besides, even if Sheng Hechen really sent people... Can those people beat Jiang Su and Li Hanshan

Zhang Wenxue finally shut up and said nothing, but Jiang Su saw his expression and knew that he was acquiescing, so he said, "Thank you, Senior Brother."

Zhang Wenxue: "…"

Zhang Wenxue turned back without saying a word, apparently not wanting to talk to Jiang Su anymore, so Jiang Su had no choice but to go back with him, and sat down beside the disciples of the Zhishui Sword Sect, who immediately whispered together Ask him how he is doing.

The most excited of the few should be Qi Du. He could not wait to drag Jiang Su to talk about his recent progress. He felt that his martial arts had improved a lot, so he pestered Jiang Su to practice swordsmanship.

Seeing that he didn't have a long memory, Jiang Su agreed casually, turned his head to listen to Zhang Wenxue and Bai Yusheng's words, and said, "When they're done talking, I'll come to practice with you."

Qi Du was very excited.

During this period of time, he practiced martial arts almost day and night. He felt that his martial arts had improved. Zhang Wenxue also praised him for his great progress. A real master.

And Qi Du also knew that Jiang Su likes people who practice sword seriously.

He felt that as long as he showed his uncle his progress over the years, the younger uncle would be very happy, and of course even looking at him would be pleasing to the eye. With his hard work these days, he did not believe that he would be no match in the future. That little goblin Mu Yichuan!

Speaking of Mu Yichuan... Qi Du looked left and right and saw Mu Yichuan sitting by Fu Wenxiao's side with a cold and expressionless face, and he didn't know if he was in a daze.

Qi Du couldn't help but start thinking wildly in his heart. If he were to go to Mu Yichuan for a test now, he didn't know if he could compete with Mu Yichuan.

Even if he couldn't, if he was injured, wouldn't he be able to pretend to be pitiful, so that the little uncle would feel sorry for him more

Qi Du felt that he suddenly had a goal of working hard.

After the competition with Uncle Shi later, he immediately went to Li Hanshan for the competition!

He had some thoughts in his mind, so he couldn't sit still. He wished Zhang Wenxue and Bai Yusheng had finished talking sooner. After waiting for Bai Yusheng to prepare a room for them to rest, Qi Du couldn't wait to look at Jiang Su, and Jiang Su also stood up. He got up and let Qi Du go to the courtyard.

When he was in the courtyard, Qi Du noticed that Jiang Su had changed his sword, and this sword looked far more beautiful than Jiang Su's previous sword. Qi Du felt familiar, as if he had seen it in some book in the teacher's door. , then hesitantly asked, "Uncle, is this the Qingxiao sword?"

Jiang Su didn't expect that he could recognize Qingxiaojian as well, nodded slightly, and said with a little approval in his words, "Yes."

Qi Du was immediately encouraged, drew his sword out of the sheath, and shouted, "Uncle, don't be merciful!"

He raised his sword and rushed over, and then it was the familiar ending of the familiar picture. The two swords intersected, and Qi Du's sword soared high, drawing a parabola in the air and smashing into the bushes in the courtyard.

Jiang Su raised his eyebrows and said, "Why do you think I will show mercy?"

Qi Du: "..."

This time Jiang Su paid attention and didn't let the sword fall into any strange place, but Qi Du was stunned, looking at his hand, the original confidence was gone, he felt that he had been honed for a long time, this swordsmanship skill, Why does it seem like… no progress at all

Depressed in his heart, he stood in the same place with his head down, but saw Jiang Su put his sword back, and said, "I have made some progress."

Jiang Su's words already made Qi Du's heart jump, so happy that he almost jumped up, jumped and ran to pick up his sword, then jumped back and ran back to Jiang Su, saying: "Master! But work hard!"

Jiang Su said, "You can work harder."

Qi Du couldn't help nodding his head and said, "I will!"

After saying this, he looked at the sword on Jiang Su's waist again. His mind was active, and he couldn't help thinking that Jiang Su likes others to talk about swords the most, and also likes others to appreciate his sword. The admiration and love of the sword—

Qi Du: "Little Master Uncle! I have admired Qingxiaojian for a long time!"

Jiang Su frowned: "Well."

Qi Du: "Little Shishu, can you let me touch your sword!"

Jiang Suwei changed slightly: "No."

Qi Du was still a child after all. He heard Jiang Su refused, and he felt a little disappointed. He didn't dare to speak loudly, but only whispered: "But that's just a sword—"

Jiang Su heard it.

Jiang Su was very angry.

what happened? Martial arts have improved, but the reverence for swords has not increased at all.

What is just a sword? Can the sword be described in this way

Young people, still owe a lesson!

"Shut up!" Jiang Su raised his eyebrows and said sternly, "What is just a sword!"

Qi Du was startled by him, and immediately closed his mouth, subconsciously thinking... Is Jiang Su going to bring out the previous masters and glorious history of the Qingxiao Sword to teach him a lesson.

He was very aggrieved, pouted, admitted his mistake in a low voice, and said, "Uncle, I'm sorry."

Jiang Su: "That's my wife!"

Qi Du: "..."

Hey

What
