That Person In That River and Lake

  Chapter 157 One Qin, One Sword, One Liu Yiqing

  The spirit of spring is strong, like a song.

A stone bridge, standing in the rain, a bunch of begonias vying for spring, drifting across the small river, light drizzle falling down, multiplying. The moist fresh green on both sides of the river, the tip of the pengus, the rain and the mist, a white robe The woman stood at the bow of the boat, with a white and flawless long sword hanging from her waist, looking forward.

  Qin Keqing, who seemed to be drawn with brush and ink, held a list in her hand. After reading it quietly, she turned around slowly and said to the ferryman: "Turn around, I won't go to the capital!"

  The oil-paper umbrella opened up a thin layer of rain, and someone on the bridge suddenly shouted: "Boater, please wait!"

Qin Keqing turned her head and saw a woman holding a qin. At that moment, the eyes of the two met, and the drizzle was all over, and they all flew lightly. With a shallow smile, he asked softly, "Can I go to Jinling?"

  The boatman looked at Qin Keqing, Qin Keqing had already chartered the boat, everything had to be decided by Qin Keqing.

  Qin Keqing remained calm and nodded slightly.

The woman holding the qin was dressed in green clothes, and floated up gently, just like her, like a light cloud, slowly floated onto the boat, her toes lightly landed on the boat, without making a sound, she still hugged the qin, and bowed slightly to Qin Keqing, Gently said: "Thank you!"

  Qin Keqing nodded slightly, then touched the sword on her waist, but was stunned for a moment, and said slowly: "Wait until I go to Jinling, let's fight."

  The woman holding the zither was slightly stunned, and said: "I always thought that sword riddles had no emotions, only fighting, but now I know that you also have hesitation, and you also have emotions that can make you let go of fighting."

  Qin Keqing's eyes were not focused, and she would never know what she was looking at, but now she was staring at the piano and said, "I don't know, but I don't think I should waste time now."

The woman holding the piano smiled slightly, like the warm sun in winter, and said softly: "Of course I would not agree to it if it was someone else, but for sword riddles, I really don't know how to refuse, it seems that no one has ever been able to refuse your appointment Zhan, besides, Xia Suyi, from Qixiufang!"

  Qin Keqing was still calm, and his tone was as cold as ever, no matter whether it was winter or spring: "I know that there is no one in the world whose piano sound is so beautiful except for piano idiots."

  Su Yi didn't play the qin, but Qin Keqing heard the sound of the qin, it was very melodious.

   "I'm overwhelmed, but I heard that there is another person in the world who plays the piano like jade!" Su Yi said.

  A gust of breeze came, and the water was calm. Qin Keqing suddenly said: "You were wrong before. In this world, there is a person who refused my engagement. He still competed with swords, but he successfully refused."

  Su Yi asked in surprise, "He's dead?"

   "No," Qin Keqing's eyes suddenly became focused, and he said calmly, "Later, I surrendered!"

"how is this possible?"

That day, there was rain on the river, and two women were coming to Jinling by boat. The faint ripples were disrupted by the raindrops, and more ripples appeared. A woman holding a piano was shocked, and a Taoist nun in white appeared in her eyes emotion.

  ...

  The unexpected peach grove is full of flowers and rain. The rain thanks to the peach blossoms, and the petals are numerous, silently drifting away with the wind, drowning not only the confused eyes, but also the drenched mood.

On this day, there was a light rain slowly falling in the sky. In an inn, Gu Qingci was also holding a wind and cloud list in his hand. Liu Yiqing was holding a bowl of noodles with a smile, leaning against the eaves of the window, and said with a smile: "Well, it's great. I said you were going to be on the Billboard, and you really did. But, brother, are you sure that it will be good for you to expose that matter?"

Gu Qingci threw the list on the table, looked at the drizzle outside the window, and said: "If I don't pierce it, will the Ma family send fewer people? They want to kill me, so I will naturally follow. Might as well stir up the water a little more."

"All right, all right," Liu Yiqing muttered while eating the noodles, "Anyway, brother, you are smarter than me, what you said must make sense, so I'll follow you to make trouble in the capital, hehe, I'm excited just thinking about it. Maybe it will become a legend of the rivers and lakes again."

Gu Qing looked at Liu Yiqing and said seriously: "Are you really sure you want to go to the capital with me? You have to know that this matter has nothing to do with you. You don't need to go through this muddy water, it's not worth it. It’s not cost-effective, and the risk factor is also very high.”

"Okay, big brother, don't persuade me anymore!" Liu Yiqing put down the bowl in his hand and said, "I, Liu Yiqing, am a gangster. I am not now, and I will never be a businessman in the future. I don't know what maximizing profits is. I just know that I should follow my heart, indeed, rationally, I should leave now, but I can't."

"If I leave, maybe I will be ashamed of my sword for the rest of my life. This is the biggest waste. Everyone in the world knows that I, Liu Yiqing, is a libertine. I never deny it. I never think about the consequences when I do things. You don't have to either. Worried about what my father will say, he will not stop me, because he knows that I will not become the head of the Langya Sword Sect, I am destined to be just an elder holding a sword, so he can't stop me either."

  Gu Qingci was a little puzzled and said, "What's the explanation?"

  Liu Yiqing walked across from Gu Qingci, poured a glass of wine, and said, "Brother, to be honest, we have known each other for so long, do you think I am a qualified leader?"

   "Uh...not really."

Gu Qingci spoke very frankly. He has known Liu Yiqing for more than a month, and he has been in love with him for longer. He knows this person very well. It is more suitable to say that he is a prodigal son. With a little favor, he actually gave up chasing and killing the Yinshan sect. This is really not something a normal leader can do.

"That's right," Liu Yiqing spread his hands, and said, "You've only known me for so long, and you can tell it, but my father, and so many elders in the sect, how could they not see it, even though everyone in the world I thought that I would definitely be the head of the sect in the future, but in fact that is not the case, the sect may have thought of doing that, but after I stepped out of my own way of swordsmanship, they have always trained me as a sword-wielding elder."

"My way of swordsmanship is to follow one's heart. How can I stand the competition for interests? If I become the sect master, it is tantamount to giving up my person and my talent. The sect will not be so stupid and won't do things like killing chickens and taking eggs. It’s not bragging, as long as I’m here, even if the next head is mediocre, I can guarantee the sect’s prosperity for decades, and if my swordsmanship is ruined, even if I cultivate a qualified head, so what? , no matter how many means there are, after all, it is still the strength that speaks."

Gu Qingci looked at Liu Yiqing with some surprise. He didn't expect that Liu Yiqing, who was usually idle and idle, had such a thorough view of the world. He also lamented that it was no wonder that the Langya Sword Sect had been able to stand at the top of the world for so many years. It's important, as long as the inside can be stabilized, but the top strength of the sect is just a sword of a knife, and it plays too much a decisive factor.

   It can even be simply said that as long as Liu Yiqing can grow up, he is enough to be called a sect.

Liu Yiqing smiled and said: "So, our sect has always been very lenient towards me and never restricted me. In your words, as long as I am not stupid, I will rebel against the imperial court and provoke disputes in the martial arts world." , becoming a public enemy of the martial arts, as long as I always know that I am a member of the Langya Sword Sect, the sect will not restrict me, but will only let me pursue my own way. Just play, do not practice, and you can successfully enter the Tao."

"Besides, since I met Qin Keqing, I have become more sure of my swordsmanship. I just follow my heart. If Qin Keqing went against her will at the beginning, she would never be able to comprehend the swordsmanship of life. Speaking of this, brother, I have to say that I now I doubt that you are the legendary child of destiny, after I followed you for a while, I felt that my sword breakthrough seems to be near, really!"

Gu Qingci smiled helplessly, and shook his head, Liu Yiqing is such an idiot, he really can't stop Liu Yiqing, anyway, with Liu Yiqing's strength, it is unlikely that big things will happen, and, his current opponent is the Ma family, no matter the horse No matter how great Dongyang is as a minister, it is impossible to represent the entire imperial court after all.

   "You have a pure heart." Gu Qingci sighed.

Liu Yiqing chuckled, and said with a playful smile: "I also noticed that in this society, there are not many people as simple as me. Brother, you have to treat me well and treat me like a daughter-in-law. You need to take care of me." !"

Gu Qingci rolled his eyes and didn't answer. He really didn't know what to say to Liu Yiqing, so he sighed softly: "The storm is coming, I don't really have the confidence, but I have to do it. I also want to escape, but I am afraid, I am afraid that when I close my eyes, I will see World Union, and see so many good men who died beside me. Ma Zhibai has no idea what they have paid, and they deserve it The difference in return is too much, I can only take a gamble, and I am the same as you, please have a clear conscience!"

Liu Yiqing had a rare moment of quietness, raised his head thoughtfully, and felt a little complicated, looked at Gu Qingci, and said softly: "Brother, I am also betting, my kendo has been put on hold for too long, this may also be my chance, because I There used to be a sword called Wuxin, and then there was a sword called Suixin!"

  Outside the door, the rain suddenly became heavier. The rain poured heavily, hitting the tiles with a clatter, and flowing down from the eaves like a waterfall.
