My wife, the eldest princess of the demon clan, I recite poems and become a sword god

Chapter 90 After all these years, the river is the river and I am me (2 in 1)

In the slightly surprised eyes of several people,
Most of the boulders were buried deep in the soft soil, with countless cracks spreading from the top downwards.

next moment,
The stone sword hilt with the words "Green Water Lake" engraved on the surface suddenly fell into pieces, raising a large amount of dust.

Then,

A long sword broke out from the bottom of the sword stone, and then turned into a stream of light and flew straight into the hidden sword house.

When he saw the turquoise sword hilt flashing past his eyes,
Taoist Yurun, with sunken eyes and a look of weakness on his face, frowned suddenly:

"This sword looks familiar, could it be that..."

Halfway through his words, monk Shuanghui, who was opposite him, put his hands together and interrupted:

"Amitabha, this sword should be the one that Gu Rang, the donor, held during his lifetime."

The elegant and easy-going Dean Jin followed the direction of the sword with his eyes, and sighed with emotion and added:

"No. 11 on the Hundred Weapons and Swords List, semi-sacred weapon, Zhao Gujian."

With this remark,
The expressions of surprise on the faces of Uncle Chen and others who came after him became even worse.

There is no other reason, Gein Zhaodanjian's reputation in the world is too great.

You know, all the top ten famous swords on the sword list are sacred weapons.

In other words,
In the category of breaking away from the sacred weapon, the Zhaodan Sword is recognized as the best sword in the world.

Legend has it that this sword was cast 300 years ago, but the specific time cannot be verified.

And in the history books, there are three sword masters who pushed the reputation of Zhao Dan Sword to its peak——

The first sword master held a gallbladder sword and assassinated the dissolute and unscrupulous emperor of the Northern Dynasties at that time. He was seriously injured and died shortly after.

A hundred years ago, the sword master carried a bold sword and assassinated the mediocre last emperor of Nanliang. He was exhausted and broke his arm.

20 years ago,

The last emperor of the Wei Dynasty, Emperor Wei Ming, ignored the rising smoke and boiling public resentment and insisted on launching the third northern expedition.

Gu Rang, a swordsman with a reputation as a chivalrous swordsman in the world, heard about it and protested for the people of the world. He assassinated Emperor Ming alone on a rainy night with a licensed sword, and finally stained the palace walls of Luoyang with blood.

Following the failure of Gu Rang's assassination, Zhao Danjian disappeared and his whereabouts are unknown.

And no one would have thought that,

The Zhao Dan Sword, which was famous in the world, was actually sealed in a stone by the Green Water Lake.

look back,

Dean Jin accidentally looked at Monk Shuanghui, and both noticed the worry in the other's eyes.

The reason why Zhao Dan Sword is so famous is ultimately due to the courage of several sword masters who dared to kill the emperor.

And now, the long-lost Zhaodan Sword has reappeared.

Emperor Jingyun, who is sitting on the dragon throne now, how will he feel?
……

……

The green streamer broke into the courtyard from outside the courtyard for a moment, and was immediately held by Xie Tingfengxin, who gently raised his right arm.

Looking at the silver sword blade exuding a hint of cold air, Xie Tingfeng's deep eyes flashed with nostalgia.

When he saw the eye-catching turquoise hilt, Li Cheng thought of the Jianghu records in his mind and blurted out:

"Tzu bold?!"

After hearing this, Xie Tingfeng slowly raised his eyes and looked at the nephew he had just recognized with a gentle expression:

"Yes, this is the Zhao Dan Sword..."

As he spoke, he suddenly grinned and whispered with deep meaning:

"If you like it, this sword will be yours after dark."

Hearing this, Li Cheng was slightly startled, and then quickly declined:

"Uncle, you are joking, how can I, a person with no skills, use this courageous sword..."

He switched the title from uncle to uncle very smoothly, without any sense of abruptness.

Bai Mengyan, who was next to Li Cheng, lowered her eyes after hearing this, with no emotion on her face.

After patiently listening to the other party's words, Xie Tingfeng's smile grew deeper:

"I'm not kidding, whether you use it to chop trees or chop firewood later, it's up to you.

Now you can say whether you like it or not. "

"……,like."

Li Cheng, who was inadvertently forced into a corner, found it difficult to say that he didn't like it.

If he doesn't even like the priceless semi-sacred artifact, then he is either lying hypocritically, or his brain circuitry is different from that of normal people.

Between the two, Li Cheng chose to be a normal person.

After hearing the other party's answer, Xie Tingfeng smiled confidently and said:

"Then it's agreed, starting from tonight, you will be the new sword master of the Zhao Dan Sword."

Hearing this, Li Cheng was silent for a moment, and then replied solemnly:

"Thank you uncle, I will definitely live up to my uncle's trust."

He knew clearly in his heart why the other party emphasized in his words that after dark.

Because the vitality stolen through the Tianwen Formation can only be effective for one night or day.

Since the current formation is launched during the day,
Therefore, at most, when the sun sets and night falls, it will fail silently.

At that time, Xie Tingfeng will be like the previous Marquis Wu An.
Dust to dust, dust to dust.

But it was almost noon, and there were at least three hours before sunset.

If it is used to say goodbye to each other, it is still enough.

Smiling at Li Cheng, Xie Tingfeng shook his head gently and joked in an open-minded tone:
"It is a favor that I will never be able to repay in my lifetime for being able to meet my sister and my brother-in-law again.

If there is an afterlife, when you see me on the street, you must let me repay you on the spot, otherwise I will shamelessly take it for granted. "

After saying that, he turned to look at Xie Yongxu and Bai Ye, smiled and asked:
“I have been lying in bed these days and haven’t had a good meal in a long time.

It just so happens that it’s almost lunch time, and several guests outside the hospital are also busy with my affairs. How about we all have lunch together? "

"Okay, okay," Xie Yongxu said three good words in a row. She recalled something, then wiped the slightly wet corners of her eyes with the back of her hand, and said with a smile:
"I remember that you like Crab House's dishes the most. Sister, I will have some banquets come over and deliver them to Cangjian Lu."

"Yeah, but there's no need to send it here. I want to go to my parents' place, Songyunyuan, to eat."

Speaking of this, Xie Tingfeng remembered something and tapped his head with the hilt of his sword:
"Oh, yes, my ghostly appearance was too scary before, so I didn't let Uncle Xuan stay here with me.

But I have to call him over when I eat. I have relied on him to take care of me for the past ten years, which is really hard. "

"Okay, it's up to you."

Xie Yongxu had a doting look on his face, especially coveting the last time he spent with his younger brother.

He nodded slightly,

Xie Tingfeng quietly turned around, holding the courage sword with his back on his back, and walked step by step under the shadow of the willow tree where the sun was shining.

He looked at the tomb of Li Xuanji with complicated eyes.
He bent down and bowed long, with a calm voice that sees through the world:

"Your Highness, my sworn brother, my brother Xie Tingfeng is leaving now. I have no regrets about meeting you in this life."

After all, he turned his head to look at another cloak mound next to him, with a soft and tender expression:

"Xiaodie, you once told me that we would meet again if we were destined to meet each other eventually. I have always believed it, so..."

While talking to myself,
He stretched out his hand gently and gently touched the fallen leaves on the earth bag, as if he had pinched her face.

"In the past ten years, I have seen many butterflies fall here. Which one is you?

Or, in this life, which reincarnation are you in..."

Although Xie Tingfeng's voice was very soft, he did not deliberately avoid others.

Li Cheng, who has excellent hearing, his eyes became a little complicated when he heard this.

Regarding the other tomb, Xie Guanchao also mentioned it last night.

The woman named Die was the sister of one of the concubines of the then-Prince Li Xuanji.

Because of his low background,

Although Xie Tingfeng and the other party were in love, they encountered strong opposition from their families due to their family differences.

Xie Tingfeng also accepted death at that time. Instead of insisting on marrying this woman as his wife, he wanted to marry her in a glamorous way.

Later, Huang Tian finally paid off his hard work.

With his perseverance and hard work, he finally obtained the imperial edict of marriage from Emperor Wucheng for the two of them.

then,

As expected, an accident called the Suzaku Gate Incident happened.

That day, Xu Yunji led his men into the Prince's Mansion and Prince Ning's Mansion, killing almost everyone they met.

As written in Journey to the West:

All the monsters with backgrounds were rescued, and those without backgrounds were killed.

obviously,
The woman named Xiaodie is the kind with no background.

So she died.

Not even a whole body was left.

In fact, Xie Guanchao said something wrong in the living room last night.

This is a fact that Li Cheng deduced after a long time of contemplation that is close to the truth——

Xie Tingfeng was not captured by King Yong and brought back to Chang'an, but he threw himself into a trap.

This is the most reasonable explanation.

Chang'an is the prince's deep-rooted base camp. Even if King Yong succeeds in a sneak attack, the intelligence network cannot be destroyed instantly.

Xie Tingfeng must have received the news immediately that night.

He had enough time to escape from Guanzhong and find another way.

After all, Xie Tingfeng is just an arrogant person, not a fool who doesn't know how to weigh the pros and cons.

At that time, his normal thought was that he should be able to secretly avenge Li Xuanji.

Therefore,
There must be a reason that made him extremely angry, which made him go to King Yong to fight for his life regardless of reason.

And at this moment looking at the lonely back of the other party,
Li Cheng knew that he had found the reason.

After all, I am still trapped by love...

He could understand Xie Tingfeng's anger at that time, but he couldn't agree with it.

Any decision made without reason is hardly worthy of recognition.

But if he was in a different place, it might be difficult for him to remain calm.

a long time,

Xie Tingfeng turned around from the two tombs and let out a long breath.

A relaxed smile appeared on his face again, and he said casually to a few people:

"Let's go to Songyunyuan together. It's been a long time since I took a walk with my sister and brother-in-law."

After saying that, he walked towards the door of Hidden Sword House with his sword in a relaxed pace.

And when we really reach the threshold of sunshine,
Xie Tingfeng, who had not left this place for ten years, looked at the green lake outside from a distance, shook his head and smiled at himself.

next moment,
He first stretched out his left foot to cross the threshold, and then raised his right foot to follow his left foot.

It was a very simple action, but it took him ten years to do it.

It seems that what I have crossed is not a threshold, but a scar that is getting deeper and deeper in my heart.

The breeze came slowly, blowing on the faces of the people inside and outside the courtyard.

this moment,
Dean Jin and other fourth-grade experts outside the hospital all had their eyes widened with expressions of disbelief.

Li Cheng in the hospital also felt the same shock. His pupils shrank subconsciously, trying not to let others notice that he was strange.

Xie Guanchao said to him before,
Xie Tingfeng was already a master of the sixth level as early as 18 years ago.

But you didn’t tell me that Xie Tingfeng is now a third-level kendo master!

……

……

Not long after the group of people walked towards Shounyuan,
Panting, several elders of the Xie family finally walked from the opposite end of the lake to the outside of Cangjian House.

Xie Zhiyao opened the door immediately and was stunned when he saw the empty building inside.

He slowly turned around and looked at the Xie Mansion nurses who were staying outside the hospital. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said:
"What's going on? Where are the family master and the others?"

Hearing this, the nurse in gray clothes saluted Xie Zhiyao, and replied neither humble nor arrogantly:

"The third master, the master of the house, and the guests went to the old master of the house, Songyun Yuan, to have lunch..."

hear this,

Xie Zhiyao shook his sleeves subconsciously, panting a little as he wanted to go to Songyun Courtyard again.

Before he could take two steps, he heard the nurse behind him continue:

"The third master left instructions. He had already said goodbye to all my uncles before.

This life is gone, no need to see each other again, only sadness. "

Hearing this, several other clan elders secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that they could finally go back to their respective courtyards to rest.

We had been holding on for a day and a night, and our old bones were almost falling apart.

And Xie Zhiyao paused, turned around and looked at the nursing home with a solemn gaze:

"But I just came back last night, can't I still see my mistress one last time?"

When the nurse in gray clothes saw this, his expression remained respectful and his voice was calm:

"The third master also said that everyone he wants to see has already been seen, and there is no need to force anyone he has not seen."

Xie Zhiyao:…

Hearing this, several other clan elders couldn't help but have a look of amusement on their wrinkled faces.

A more straightforward translation of Xie Tingfeng’s words would be:

Who is your old man?Do you know me well?Is it necessary to see you?

Xie Zhiyao, who knew that he was being severely targeted, could not help but turn blue and white.

however,
He didn't even dare to show his incompetence and rage when others were watching.

……

……

The luncheon to see off Xie Tingfeng had a harmonious atmosphere, just like a lively family dinner during the New Year.

No matter the main table or the guest table, everyone was talking and laughing. Even the monk Shuanghui drank a few glasses of vegetarian wine.

after lunch,

Xie Tingfeng suddenly suggested that he wanted to take a look at the Guangling River.

Regarding this request, both Xie Guanchao and Xie Yongxu naturally agreed to everything.

then,

A few people, including Li Cheng, left Xie's Mansion in a carriage and rushed to Ningfengdu where the river was roaring.

Outsiders such as Taoist Yurun and Monk Shuanghui were temporarily arranged to rest in guest rooms.

There is a somewhat heavy fact that,

After today, the Xie family will still hold a funeral for Xie Tingfeng.

Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism are all professionals in this field, and they can be regarded as specialized in the field.

After the weather cleared, Ningfengdu was as lively as when Li Cheng first arrived the day before yesterday.

Several people boarded the prepared luxury three-story passenger ship and sailed northward along the Grand Canal.

On decks where flags fly,
A few people sat around and talked happily while enjoying the river breeze, admiring the mountains rising one after another on both sides of the river. They felt relaxed and happy.

Before you know it,
The passenger ship sailed on the river far away from Jiangdu City, very far away, and had entered the boundary of Huainan.

If you drive along the Grand Canal for another day and night, you can reach the majestic imperial capital, Luoyang City.

Unfortunately,
The afterglow of the setting sun has fallen on the hull of the ship.

To describe it in a poem:

A residual sun spreads in the water, half of the river is half red.

At this moment, Xie Tingfeng was standing on the bow of the ship, holding a three-foot sword in his hand. His splendid clothes seemed to be stained with blood. He looked at the river and mountains and remained silent for a long time.

Suddenly, he grinned and roared straight from his heart:
"Throughout the years, Jiang is Jiang, and I am me."
