Fairy Sword Inquiry 1

Chapter 42 The first fall in the lake of love
"Is it really so beautiful?" Hearing Xingyan's words so mysteriously, Ling Yi'er was quite skeptical.In fact, in Ling Yi'er's heart, she was quite conceited of her appearance.Although, people rarely praised her appearance in person, but after all, she was a young daughter, and I often took advantage of the time when there was no one around, taking pictures of myself by the mirror-like water.After judging it, I feel that I am still doing well every time, hee!

Just now, this girl who can only be self-absorbed and self-cherishing finally heard the young man praising herself face to face by the water. "Water meets eyes and cannot see" is such an overrated word to describe that girl, it's really—"Is that an exaggeration?"

Lingyi'er was straightforward, and didn't know much about the way of the world, so she was not convinced, so she said it out of her mouth, regardless of whether it was a bit inappropriate to argue about her beauty in front of men she didn't know very well.

"Ahem!" Hearing Lingyi'er's unconvinced question, Xingyan immediately reacted.He is not as simple-minded as Lingyi'er, after all, he has been walking in the wells of Raozhou City for many years - Xingyan suddenly realized that he had just boasted about another girl so unabashedly in front of this girl. The woman's beauty may be a bit inappropriate——

"Ju Ying's face is as long as I think it is extremely beautiful, so why tell others about it? Besides, she is still a girl."

After thinking about this verse, Xingyan felt a little bit resentful that he had slipped his words just now, so he coughed lightly twice, and brought the subject up in one sentence: "Hey! This is just my own opinion—by the way, I forgot to ask And the name of the fairy?" "What kind of fairy is not a fairy, you call me..."

Speaking of this, Ling Yi'er stopped immediately, her pretty face was blushing a little.It's not because of the wake-up call that she is a fairy—in fact, people often call her that.She was a little bit ashamed because Lingyi also knew that it is inconvenient for a girl from a wealthy family who has not been out of the court to easily tell a strange man her name—the last time that Ju Ying had just met Xingyan Soon, he easily told him the name "Ju Ying", but there was another secret hidden in it.

It seems that Xing Yan patronized to cover up the slip of the tongue just now, but he forgot another taboo. "Ho!"

Xingyan has also come to his senses now, and was about to take back the question just now, when he heard the girl in front of the seat say: "...my small character Lingyi——even if I don't say it anyway, my grandpa who has always been partial to you will not say anything. I will tell you." The girl, who was a little shy just now, immediately found a suitable reason for herself. "Everyone in the family calls me Lingyi'er——I allow you to call me that too!" Although he said this in a commanding tone, his voice dropped a little. "Hehe, we've known each other for so long, and we only know her name today! Lingyi'er... This name is quite good, it just suits you, a fairy in the water."

While he was talking, the food that had been ordered was brought up like flowing water.Both of them moved their chopsticks, but they were speechless for a while.

When the steaming hot glutinous rice balls were brought up, Xing Yan hurriedly stopped Ling Yi'er who was picking up the glutinous rice balls and was about to put them in her mouth, and signaled her not to be impatient, but to bite slowly.Otherwise, if she was too busy chewing on the hot glutinous rice balls just out of the pan, her little mouth might be scalded.

"Hey! I didn't expect you to be able to master all your abilities!" Hearing that Xingyan was so good at it, Ling Yi'er couldn't help joking.However, it seemed that the little girl really listened to the words of wake-up call, and she was no longer so anxious.After eating one or two glutinous rice balls, Lingyi'er said inarticulately there:
"Oh... delicious... this little noodle ball actually melts in your mouth—I never thought there would be such a delicious thing in Wanghulou. Well, I will come here more often in the future!"

Seeing Lingyi'er eating happily, Xingyan was also quite happy. "Hey! I didn't think that this girl is actually quite cute before!" Thinking of this, Xing Yan suddenly wanted to tease her:

"Lingyi'er, don't worry, I have something serious to tell you."

"What's the matter?" Lingyi'er, who was busy eating, raised her head upon hearing this, and looked at Xingyan.

"Your grandfather, Yun Zhongjun, once told me one thing. I think I should tell you about it." "Huh?"

Seeing the young man speak solemnly, Ling Yi'er also put down her chopsticks.

"It's like this. Your grandfather once told me that when I see him in the future, don't call him 'Old Zhang' or 'Old Zhang'. It sounds so kind."

"Then what do you want to call him?" "Brother." "Huh?" "Yeah!to die! "

Lingyi'er realized that Xingyan was taking advantage of her, scolded coquettishly, picked up the chopsticks in front of her, and made a gesture to poke Xingyan.

However, with a smile on her face, she held up the chopsticks in the air, but finally didn't poke it out, but said angrily: "You only know how to bully me!"

... The two of them ate and chatted lightly amidst such laughter.

After teasing Ling Yi'er for a while, Xing Yan never made fun of her again after that, but repeatedly praised her magic invisibility spell, and her light kung fu of dancing with waves, which really opened his eyes.

After talking too much, Ling Yi'er felt a little disapproving: "Actually, you are so good! I heard from grandpa that you can actually play the song "Shuilongyin" in its entirety - but you still can't do it until today! Forgot to ask you, how did you do it?" "Ugh!"

This time it was Xingyan's turn to be caught blind, and he couldn't tell her directly what kind of "Taihua Dao Power" he cultivated—that was just what he called himself, his strange power like flowing water, in fact, to this day he still has nothing to do with it. Don't know what's weird about that.

Scratching his head, he woke up and found a relatively easy-to-accept explanation—at least, he himself thought so: "Actually, it's on the top of Horseshoe Mountain in my house, and there's a bed-like stone—that's not an ordinary The stone, as soon as I lean on it, a very magical power will be transmitted to me. With this magical power, I will blow out the "Water Dragon Song" that night!" "...It's a lie! How can there be such a stone!"

Ever since Xingyan made her joke, Lingyi always felt that the boy was teasing her.

Hearing the girl's questioning, Xingyan could only smile innocently and stop talking.However, after only a while, the girl who was still full of doubts just now couldn't help but said: "Is there really such a stone in your house? I want to go and see, to see if you are lying to me!" "Uh... really Unfortunately, that time when I played "Shuilongyin", there was a burst of lightning and thunder for some reason, and a thunderbolt came down, shaking the stone behind me to pieces—that time was really dangerous!" Xing Yan At this time, he was still in fear, because he recalled that night of thunder and lightning, and the strange situation of the beasts surrounding him. "what a pity……"

The girl said softly, but didn't say much.It seemed that she still believed what Xingyan said. "By the way, you really don't want that flute today? Then when will you return it?" "Ah! You're so annoying!" Ling Yi'er seemed a little unhappy, "Anyway, the stone is gone now , people can't boast about the "Water Dragon Song" - let's deposit it with you first, and when I want it, I will ask you for it!"

In fact, the girl's words were quite unreasonable, but Xingyan was not a fool, and now he could see that Lingyi'er really wanted to let him use the jade flute, so she stopped insisting now.

"I'm not like you. Last time I just asked you to play a few more tunes, so you just..." Ling Yi'er remembered what happened in Huayue Tower last time. This girl who was always spoiled suddenly felt I was so wronged that I couldn't help complaining.When he mentioned what happened that night, he woke up and said that he had no choice but to shut up and bury his head in the food, pretending to be ignorant.In order to prove that she was benevolent to the boy, the little girl continued: "Actually, people call me 'Xuedi Lingyi', so famous!" "Eh? Then Xuedi... should be 'Shenxue' Right? Give it to me now, isn’t it a bit inappropriate?” “Huh! That’s why I said you are stingy, look at me, I will give you half of this world-renowned name now!” “Ah! Thank you!”

He said thanks, but he murmured in his heart: "Uh...is this 'Xuedi Lingyi' really so famous? I also often walk around this Poyang County, why have I never heard of it?"

... Time passed quickly, and I felt that before much time was spent, most of the food on the table had already been eaten.

"Hehe, there are still some, hurry up and eat, I almost have to go back early." Xingyan said.

"Huh?" Ling Yi'er finally had a happy chat, but suddenly she woke up and said that she wanted to go back, and she felt a little unhappy at the moment, so she fell silent.Xing Yan felt a little strange, wondering why this little girl who was still in high spirits suddenly became so quiet.

Just when he was surprised, he suddenly heard the girl in front of him whisper softly: "Xingyan, do you know that there is another song "Feng Shui Yin" besides the Divine Comedy "Shui Long Yin"?" "Huh? Feng Shui Yin? What is that?" After listening to the magical "Shuilong Yin", there was another song, and Xingyan became excited immediately. "I just knew how to play that song—pass me the jade flute first, and I'll play it for you." "Yeah." Xingyan hurriedly handed the jade flute to Ling Yi'er.Ling Yi'er's expression at this time was rather solemn.I saw her caressing the pale green body of the jade flute, and said quietly as if she was talking to herself: "Shenxue, the flute in the sky."

After finishing speaking, Ling Yi'er stood up, leaned against the side of the diamond window, facing the vast water, moon, and sky outside the window, raised the frost tube to the side of her pearly lips, and exhaled like blue...

A faint flute sound began to echo slowly and softly in the clear and lonely autumn water and long sky.There seemed to be some kind of strange rhythm in the melody that sounded clear and low-pitched.

At this moment, all the drinkers in the Wanghu Tower had almost left, and they were the only ones left. This low-key melody did not disturb others.
