Chapter 48 Exploring the Secrets
Mother Zhao left, Qin Wan's face softened slightly, still with a hint of redness, her eyes fell to the side and she didn't dare to look at Zhao Kuo's eyes, Zhao Kuo coughed, "I came back this time to prepare for pre-war special training!" ”
Qin Wan raised her head and mentioned the right thing, Fang Cai's shyness slowly disappeared, and the expression on her face became solemn, "Pre-war special training? Could it be that Zhao Guo can't go to war? ”
Zhao Kuo shook his head, "It's not a war, it's for the palace competition in half a year." ”
"I see!" Qin Wan nodded again and again after hearing this, "Qin Wan once heard that the triennial competition in the court of Zhao State, and those who are outstanding can be reused, so many swordsmen specially came to Zhao State, just to be able to become famous in one battle, and I don't want the prince to be interested in the same." ”
"Since it is the highest competition on behalf of Zhao Guo, Zhao Kuo naturally does not want to be resigned to being behind, and there will inevitably be strong opponents to participate in it, and Zhao Kuo's current swordsmanship will inevitably not be able to win, so he can only keep honing his swordsmanship to improve rapidly." Zhao Kuo didn't mention Lian Jin's matter, which involved Zhao Ya, he couldn't tell Qin Wan the truth, he just wanted to defeat Lian Jin and get Zhao Ya, which was too embarrassing.
"Quickly improve your swordsmanship! Childe has come up with a suitable solution? "Qin Wan had seen Zhao Kuo's strange way of training his body that day, to increase the weight to achieve rapid enhancement, maybe this time he could also think of it, but he just wanted to improve his swordsmanship quickly, unless he had an adventure or could realize a unique sword move.
"I have some eyebrows, but I need to find a suitable spot."
"Qin Wan will definitely do her best to assist Gongzi!"
Zhao Kuo nodded, "Clean up, remember to bring more snacks and dry food, as well as a change of clothes, and you should rarely come back for the rest of the days!" ”
"Childe wants to go out of the city?"
"Find a secluded place to cultivate, just to work hard Miss Qin to accompany me!"
Qin Wan lowered her head and bit her lip lightly, "Qin Wan is going to prepare!" After speaking, he walked out, picked up the remaining half of the dim sum, smelled the fragrance coming from it, why is this smell so familiar, and finally remembered that Liu Jing's body also exuded the same smell that night, it would not be wrong, it was the unique fragrance of osmanthus.
Qin Wan and Liu Jing, two unrelated women, whether they are also inextricably linked, don't care so much, close their eyes and recall the situation when the sword in their hand was slowly waved in the rain that day, the rain became more and more rapid, and the sword in their hand was slightly slow and bizarre, and the rain was suddenly interrupted, and slowly dripped down the sword body.
"Why do you have to leave again when you just came back? Still going out of town! After hearing this, Zhao's mother put down the work in her hand and looked at Zhao Kuo.
"Mother, Kuo'er needs to find a secluded place to specialize in swordsmanship!"
"It's not the same at home, no one bothers you, and you have to go for so long, how can you rest assured!" Saying this, he kept picking out a few thick clothes and stuffing them into his baggage, most of them were worried that they would freeze when it was cold, and both father and son had the same temper, and they couldn't pull back a hundred cows for what they decided.
"With Miss Qin with me, my mother can rest assured!"
Mother Zhao paused, Qin Wan stood at the door, most of them had already been cleaned up, "Wan'er come here, my mother has something to say to you!" Qin Wan had no choice but to step forward, Mother Zhao whispered in her ear, it must not be a good thing, Qin Wan's face was red all the way to her neck.
Mother Zhao had a smile on her face, "It's right to listen to my mother!" ”
The two turned around, but Qin Wan never dared to look at Zhao Kuo's eyes, "Kuo'er, the things are almost packed, and the place is set?" ”
"Mother, where can I find a place with a waterfall outside the city?"
Mother Zhao had a puzzled expression on her face, "Waterfall? ”
Zhao Kuo gestured with his hand, "It's the kind of water that keeps flowing down from a high place, and it's like that!" ”
Mother Zhao smiled: "That's the water curtain falling from a high place!" The boy also said what cloth, out of the city all the way to the west, if you ride a horse should be half a day's journey, there is a valley there is a water curtain of the kind you said, but I heard that there are often wild beasts infested, so few people go! ”
"The quiet valley is just right, and you can have more game on weekdays."
"Really going! In case you encounter a beast, it is not a trivial matter. ”
"With Qin Wan here, it will definitely not hurt the son in the slightest."
"Don't worry, mother, Kuo'er knows how to protect herself."
The two horses were pulled out, the burden was hung on it, Qin Wan changed into her original outfit, carrying a long sword on her waist and wearing a cloth armor made of thick cloth, and there was still a sword mark on the cloth armor, Qin Wan was injured that day, and met Zhao Kuo in the broken temple, and was later treated, otherwise the poison attack would be worrying, and there was still a scar on the chest, every time she touched it, she would remember her father's revenge, Qin Yu was still happy and happy, holding the reins, and her demeanor was completely different from the Qin Wan she saw last night.
Mother Zhao didn't forget to explain a few words, and the two flew on the horse, "Mother, don't worry!" ”
"Wan'er, take care of Kuo'er, don't forget what your mother said to you!"
The two patted away from the horse, Zhao's mother's figure gradually blurred, and she couldn't bear to leave, and a child jumped out of it with a wooden stick in his hand, "Mother, why did the second brother leave just after he came back!" The child still wants to try two tricks with him. ”
"Don't worry about the adults, the children don't care, put down the stick, and go back to study!"
"Ying'er has grown up! Not a child. ”
"What's so good about growing up, I can't accompany my mother every day, so I want to run out!" Mother Zhao sighed, Zhao Ying's eyes were round, holding a wooden stick, most of them didn't understand what her mother meant, her eyes fell into the distance, she just got the news that the second brother came back from the palace, picked up the wooden stick to look for it, what she didn't want to see was just the back of leaving, it was a pity.
Two fast horses out of the city gate all the way to the west, the man on the horse, the man is handsome and extraordinary, with a long sword on his waist and a horse whip, and then look at the woman's complexion is slightly dark, a pair of eyes are extraordinarily bright, it is Zhao Kuo who went to the valley for special training, Qin Wan accompanied him, the two of them followed the road to the west, until the sun set in the west to see the valley between the two mountains, the sound of water was heard from afar, a clear stream from top to bottom, more than a dozen houses were located at the foot of the mountain, and the smoke rose from the chimney, it should have been time for dinner.
Zhao Kuo's figure got off the horse, tied the reins to a tree, the war horse was mostly hungry for a long time, bowed his head to nibble on the tender grass growing next to the tree, and flicked his tail to disperse mosquitoes and flies, an old man was tidying up the vegetable garden in front of the yard with farm tools in his hand, the tender green leaves were very pleasing, the neighing of the war horse was bursting, the old man looked up, looked at Zhao Kuo with a puzzled face, this is a remote location, few people come, his eyes fell on Zhao Kuo's waist, a long sword, and his expression couldn't help but change.
The old man was just about to leave, when Zhao Kuo walked quickly to the front, "Uncle, inquire, is there a valley ahead, and there is a water curtain from above in the valley?" "With the experience of the last time, this era cannot be called an uncle, and can only be replaced by an old man or an old man.
The old man's figure stopped, his body straightened, and his back still couldn't be straightened, which must have been caused by frequent labor, and he put his hand to his ear, "What, be louder!" ”
The old man carried the farm tool in his hand and looked at Zhao Kuo, most of the time his ears had become dull when he was old, and he didn't hear what Zhao Kuo asked just now.
"Ahead, the mountain, the water curtain, the whoosh!" Zhao Kuo gestured with his hands, and his voice also increased by a few percent, but the old man still didn't hear clearly, "I want to drink water, wait!" The water here is delicious, and it all comes from the mountains! ”
Zhao Kuo looked helpless, the meaning between the two is too different, and it will take a lot of trouble to explain it clearly.
With a creak, the wooden door was pushed open from the inside, and a woman walked out, holding a wooden basin in her hand, wearing only a short shirt, the exposed parts were bronze, and her face was unique to the peasant family.
"Grandpa's ears are not bright, just ask Xiya if the son has something!"
"Your name is Xiya?"
"Dad gave it, and said it was festive!"
"Is there a valley ahead of you with a curtain of water coming down from above?"
Xiya nodded, "Childe is right, walk all the way from here, you can enter the valley, there is a water curtain falling from a high place in the depths of the valley, no one knows where the water comes from, even if it doesn't rain, the water potential will not decrease, I heard the old man say that it is the water of the Tianhe, you won't get sick if you drink it, and you will bless us." ”
"Thanks, Xiya!"
Zhao Kuo turned around, and Xiya hurriedly shouted, "Childe, I heard from my father that there are often fierce beasts in the deep valley!" ”
"It's fine!" Zhao Kuo turned his head with a smile on his face, and Xiya hurriedly lowered his head.
Zhao Kuofei got on his horse and went straight to the deep valley, the old man frowned, "Xiya, where are they going?" ”
Xiya gestured with her hand, and the old man nodded again and again, "That's the water of Tianhe, bless us for generations of good health!" After saying that, he fell to his knees, looking very reverent.
