Chapter 66: An Extraordinary Family Background
(3rd Update)
Hurriedly arrived at the back hall, and as soon as Xu Shilin entered the door, he called: "Aunt Qing." ”
Xiaoqing got up from her seat, walked up, looked at Xu Shilin, and couldn't help but sigh: "Time flies so fast." ”
Xu Shilin wiped the corners of his eyes, and at some point, the corners of his eyes were already moist: "This time, Aunt Qing must stay for a few more days." ”
Xiaoqing hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded: "Okay!"
Xu Xian's time is running out, and Shilin, I don't know how many times I will see each other in the future, Xiaoqing is full of emotion, these decades, more abundant than her past 500 years, let her understand what is sad and what is parting. It also matures her, makes her less reckless, and makes her start to be sentimental.
After lunch, Ghost Cry and Cai Wei said goodbye to Xu's Baohetang and took another tour on the West Lake. However, since she came out of Boholdo, Cai Wei has become taciturn and has completely lost her usual liveliness. Ghost Cry saw that Cai Wei was really not interested, so he returned the boat and went home.
When she arrived at home, Cai Wei finally asked: "Ghost big brother ......"
She bit her lip: "Are you like Sister Xiaoqing, can you live for a long, long time?"
Ghost Cry hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
Cai Wei was already crying: "Is that it, when I get old, you are still so young." ”
Ghost Cry sighed, touched her head, and did not speak.
Demons, most of them can live for a long time. As few as 100 years and 200 years, many can even live for thousands of years, and some can even achieve immortality to some extent.
Devil May Cry doesn't know how many years he will live, but it is certain that he will live a lot longer than ordinary people.
This is also why, shemale love always ends sadly, one is watching the lover grow old, but there is nothing to be done. One is that he is getting old, but his lover is still young. For both sides, the blow is fatal.
Cai Wei ran into the boudoir crying, slammed the door shut, and sat on the stool in the hall for a long time, sighing again.
His original plan was to wait until Cai Wei got out of trouble, and then find a way to help her buy some properties, not to ask for great fortune and luxury, but to ask for three meals a day without worrying.
But later, gradually contact, the two sides already had feelings, and they only felt that Cai Wei was becoming more and more like family, so they were a little reluctant. can only secretly decide, when she leaves Jiangnan one day, she will give her everything in Jiangnan!
But...... Thinking like this, he always felt a little unwilling, he finally had a family, and he was going to lose it like this?
He was unwilling, but he was afraid that he would bring danger to her, and in the end, he could only avoid this problem, and he always thought about it on the grounds that it was still early.
And now, he didn't expect that he would face this problem in advance.
......
In the study, the lights are bright.
Xu Shilin, Xu Bowen, father and son sat opposite each other, Xu Bowen was excited, and the appearance of his aunt and grandmother, who seemed to be the same age as himself, made him guess that his family background was not ordinary.
He couldn't help but think of his grandfather, who sighed and desperately wanted to break the bridge whenever he talked about his grandmother. He had always thought that his grandmother had died, but now it seems that it is not that simple.
Xu Shilin looked at the excited Xu Bowen and shook his head, he would rather his son be in the dark for the rest of his life, in the shadow of his mother, and live a happy life, rather than let him know the truth.
However, although it is also gentle, unlike his father's pedantry, Xu Shilin is very smart and extremely rational when facing some problems.
He clearly knew that he couldn't hide it from his son for the rest of his life. His family background is like this, if he hides it from him for the rest of his life, it is not for his good, but for his harm.
Because, the blood in their bodies is coveted.
Instead of hiding it and arousing his son's curiosity and asking him to do something dangerous, it is better to tell him directly and teach him some skills to protect himself.
"Bowen, your grandmother is the White Lady. ”
Xu Bowen sat under the table with a "plop", and he got up in embarrassment: "What, Dad, you won't lie to me, right, grandmother is a white lady?"
The White Lady may not be well-known elsewhere. But in the Jiangnan area, the reputation is prominent. On the shore of West Lake, there is even a temple named White Lady Temple, which is dedicated to White Niangniang.
Although he guessed that his family background was extraordinary, Xu Bowen never thought that his family background would be so extraordinary.
"From tomorrow onwards, you will study alchemy with your father. ”
"Alchemy, the kind of pill of the Taoist priest?"
"Hmm. ”
"No, Dad, how can you be a scholar in alchemy?" Xu Bowen was very resistant.
"Scholar?" Xu Shilin showed a smile on his face: "My father was once the champion of the Yuanlang, and he used to be Hanlin, Bowen, what about you?"
Xu Bowen blushed and lowered his head, in reading, his father was open, but his son was mediocre in reading, even if he was taught by his father, who was the champion, he was only barely a showman.
"Alright, that's it. Xu Shilin sighed, he only hoped that his child could have a way out in alchemy, relying on alchemy, he could have a few friends who had attained the Tao, preferably the kind with strong force.
couldn't help but think of Ghost Cry, he had heard Xiaoqing's evaluation of Ghost Cry, his sword skills were exquisite, and he was an enemy of a hundred.
Xu Shilin is not a novice, and he will not blindly think that monsters are powerful. A hundred enemies, even among the monsters, are also a big demon. Perhaps, you can let your stupid son walk around with him more.
......
On the second day, Ghost Cry was woken up by Cai Wei.
Yesterday he thought so much that he slept late, and now he has overslept.
"Big brother ghost, the meal is ready, get up and eat!"
Ghost Cry nodded, got up and dressed.
After eating, I washed up, and the ghost cried and rinsed my mouth in the yard. Cai Wei went behind the ghost crying like a ghost. She said cautiously, "Ghost big brother......"
"Huh?" the ghost cried, with water in his mouth, turned his head sideways.
"Big brother, I was wrong yesterday, I shouldn't have been like that. ”
Ghost Cry spat out the water in his mouth: "It's okay. ”
Cai Wei gritted her teeth: "Big brother ghost, Cai Wei only has a lifespan of a few decades, Cai Wei doesn't ask for anything else, only wants to be able to serve big brother ghost for the rest of her life." ”
Ghost Cry shook his head: "No, it's not fair to you. ”
"Big brother ghost, Cai Wei doesn't care. Cai Wei looked at the ghost crying face, and said seriously: "Big brother ghost, don't abandon Cai Wei." ”
"Follow me, it's dangerous. The ghost cried in a low voice.
"Then the ghost brother will teach Cai Wei to learn the knife! Cai Wei will work very hard and will not drag the ghost brother back. ”
Ghost Cry looked at Cai Wei's stubborn appearance, and suddenly smiled, he didn't care about longevity, he just wanted to be happy for a lifetime.
Live happily and die vigorously, why bother. Since you are willing to follow me, and I am reluctant to let you go, I will let you follow. If one day you want to leave, let you go and forget about you.
Once a decision is made, it will not be changed. The ghost cried, "Later, I'll go out." ”
Tears fell from Cai Wei's eyes: "Don't you want to pick Wei from the ghost brother?"
"It's not. The ghost cried and wiped away Cai Wei's tears: "Go buy a sword, girl, it's not good to learn this kind of knife, learn the sword!"
"However, the ghost brother uses a knife. ”
"Who told you I would only use a knife. Ghost Cry rubbed Cai Wei's head vigorously: "I learned swords since I was a child, and I was very talented, at the age of 16, within a radius of ten miles, no one was able to beat him, but later I came to Luoyang, and I gave up the sword and used the knife." ”
"Why did the ghost brother abandon the sword. Cai Wei had pity in her eyes, she tried her best to imagine that Ghost Cry was invincible with a sword, it must be very handsome.
Ghost Cry smiled: "I use a sword differently, as soon as I hold a sword in my hand, I will kill myself, whenever I face the enemy, I can't help but exchange my life for injury, just to solve the opponent as soon as possible, so I am often prone to injury." You can use a knife, but it is different, when you use a knife, you are cautious, although you will inevitably get hurt, but it is much better than using a sword. ”
The reason for this difference is related to Yang An's experience. His parents are both famous heroes, and they learn swords to be chivalrous and righteous, in order to kill the wicked. Later, when he encountered a great change and his parents died at the hands of the enemy, he fasted and bathed, brought a sword to the door, took revenge, and became more murderous. Often, as soon as the sword is unsheathed, only the opponent is left in his eyes, and it is easy to ignore the life around him or even his own.
Later, he married a wife, had a family, and had scruples about swords. He abandoned the sword and used the sword, abandoned the short and long, and put on armor, and the style of play became often guard-oriented, and later became a guard with a knife, but also to protect others, so the style of swordsmanship gradually became like this.
However, his strength has never declined, but has improved. When dueling, in the face of opponents of equal strength, he can't tell the winner with one move like before, but it is even more difficult. One-to-many, in the past, was his shortcoming, but now, he is very good at it.
And now, since Cai Wei wants to learn martial arts, he picks up the sword again. Cai Wei is a girl, her arm strength is not enough, and her arm span is not enough, and although his knife is light, the requirements for arm strength are not low, and there are strict requirements for arm span. It's different with a sword, which is more flexible.
The usage of large and powerful, the usage of small and powerful, the usage of tall people, and the usage of short people.
Moreover, Shushan swordsmanship, based on bravery, does not require high strength, of course, the greater the strength, the better. If you don't have enough strength, you can also use skills and use dangerous moves to defeat the enemy. To get started, it is enough to have the courage to draw a sword.
Finally got what she wanted, and Cai Wei burst into tears and laughed.
