"The spring water is as blue as the sky, and I sleep in a boat listening to the rain."
In the spring in the south of the Yangtze River, on a green lake, a small boat was floating slowly in the center of the lake. A man in green clothes was lying on it, humming a leisurely tune.
"Sir." The pretty young lady beside him gently waved the round fan in her hand, "Why are we here on this boat? Why don't we go to the Chunshui Cottage by the lake? There we can drink tea, eat fruit, and even have some Xiaoqu."
"There are too many people there." The man in green closed his eyes and said with a smile, "We just wandered to the center of the lake and did something that others couldn't see."
The beautiful young lady blushed slightly: "Young Master, you are making fun of me again. If you really want to do that, why should we..."
As they were talking, the boat suddenly made a "bang" sound, as if it was hit by another boat, and it shook heavily. The man in green was still squinting his eyes in the sun, seemingly unaware of it. The pretty girl turned around and frowned: "Who is so blind?" Seeing the person coming, the pretty girl was stunned and couldn't say anything else. She claimed to be a beautiful girl in the Flower Sparrow Tower, but when she saw the man in front of her, she felt a little ashamed.
In front of her was a small boat without a canopy, and on the boat stood a woman with a sword. The woman had a beautiful face and was dressed in purple. The purple clothes outlined a figure that was even more graceful, making the most popular young lady in the Flower Sparrow Tower envious. More importantly, the purple-dressed woman had a peculiar temperament. Was it cold? Was it proud? The young lady couldn't explain this feeling clearly. This was the kind of temperament she didn't see in the Flower Sparrow Tower, and it was this temperament that made her feel ashamed.
"You should have been married." The woman in purple said lightly.
The young lady was stunned and realized that what the man in green had just said had nothing to do with her. He came here to see the girl in purple. She immediately blushed and stepped aside.
"We haven't even had the wedding yet, so it's not considered a marriage." The man in green sat up and yawned.
"I heard that she saved your life." The woman in purple continued.
The man in green scratched his head. "Saving my life doesn't mean I have to marry you, right? I can repay her in many ways. I am even willing to stand up for her when she is in danger. But if you want me to be deprived of my romantic life, just kill me."
The purple-clothed woman sighed: "You and Junior Brother Xie are really different."
"He lives a more tiring life, but he has definitely lived longer than me." The man in green stood up, the spring breeze blowing his hair. He stretched out his finger and gently hooked it, then looked at the woman in purple, his eyes full of romantic spirit, "I have passed by Miss Nangong a few times, but this is the first time we have really met. I didn't expect that the girl is so beautiful."
The purple-robed woman frowned and put her hand on the hilt of the sword.
The man in green waved his hand and smiled: "It's really just a compliment from the bottom of my heart. I don't mean to tease Miss Nangong. Even if I am bold, I dare not have any idea about it. And considering the seniority, Miss Nangong still has to call me cousin."
The man in green is the current leader of the Xie family, the young master Qing Yi Lang, and the woman in purple is naturally Nangong Xier who came from Shili Langyao.
Nangong Xier shook her head: "If you like being romantic, then be romantic. But I have heard some of the things about that girl, and I think it's a pity."
The man in green clothes smiled and said, "There are many regrettable things in the world. Let's not talk about these. Miss Nangong suddenly came down from Shili Langyao and asked me to come here. Isn't it to talk about these things?"
"Of course not." Nangong Xier shook her head and said, "I'm going to Xuanwei City this time."
"Xuanwei City? Not far away. We can get there in two or three hours by sailing eastward. The wine in Xuanwei City is very good, but the girls there are not as gentle as our Xu Nuocheng." The man in green said slowly.
"I know Xu Nuocheng and Xuan Weicheng are close, so I need a local to help me." Nangong Xier glanced at the pretty girl.
"Pear blossom." The man in green waved at the girl.
The girl named Lihua stepped forward and asked, "What's the matter, sir?"
The man in blue embraced her and patted her head gently. Lihua fainted in his arms. The man in blue said gently, "Sleep in my arms for a while."
Nangong Xier then continued: "I have been looking for one of my junior brothers. Diefeng's news is that he may have appeared in Xuanwei City recently."
"Su Baiyi?" the man in green asked in confusion.
Nangong Xier nodded: "Yes. I didn't want to let the people in the academy know about this trip, so I went down the mountain alone. I thought no one in Jiangnan would be more familiar with it than the four great families, so I came to find you."
"Su Baiyi is my uncle's disciple and your sweetheart. He once saved my life. Of course I will help you." The man in green nodded.
Nangong Xier blushed: "It's just my junior brother, don't talk nonsense about your sweetheart."
"Yes, yes, yes, that's all." The man in blue laughed loudly, making Nangong Xier's face even redder. "It's just that Xuanwei City has been a little uneasy lately."
Nangong Xier frowned: "Not peaceful?"
"There was a hero gathering in Xuanwei City recently, organized by the Wang family. They invited all the heroes, but did not invite Fusheng Zuimenglou. The meaning is very simple. The world of martial arts is now a mess, and the Wang family wants to be the leader." The man in green gently stroked the hair of Lihua in his arms.
Nangong Xier asked in confusion: "Why have I never heard of this news in Shili Langyao?"
"Your academy now has Xie Kanhua and Helian Xiyue hiding in it. They are two people who will not cooperate with the Wang family, so the academy will naturally not be invited. But Die Feng from the academy naturally knows this news. I guess the girl doesn't care, or she is not in the mood to pay attention after hearing it." The man in green put the girl in his arms down and blew a whistle softly. He saw several nearby boats coming over at the same time. The man in green jumped onto Nangong Xier's boat and said, "Anyway, let's go to Xuanwei City first."
Nangong Xier whispered: "Heroes Conference..."
"None of those people at the Heroes Conference are heroes." The man in green looked up at the rippling water and said faintly, "But I heard a rumor that was half true and half false. This rumor was the only thing that interested me in the Heroes Conference before the girl came."
"What rumors?" Nangong Xier asked.
"Priest Xue may show up at this Heroes Conference."
"Priest Xue?"
"Ning Qingcheng, the number one in the world, died, but the second-best priest Xue showed up. Don't you think it's interesting?"
