Clouds and Waters

Yun Chen Xiaofei also rushed downstairs, but saw the three of Shuimen were drinking tea and laughing, so she slowed down and asked, "What's the matter?"

Shui Xinyou looked up and wondered, "Why are you alone? Where is Junior Sister Murong?"

Yun Chenxiao got into the seat, just took Shui Xinyou's teacup, took a sip, and said, "Wan'er, she's changing clothes, so I'll come down first, didn't Yufan rush us just now. I'm afraid you'll wait Already." After finishing speaking, he filled the teacup for Shui Xinyou and handed it over.

Shui Xinyou took the teacup, smiled slightly and said, "I was urging the two of you to come together, why did you run away alone after leaving him behind? Hey, you are so disrespectful, sister Wan'er should be sad, right?"

"Doo!" Yun Chenxiao snorted softly, rolled Shui Xinyou's eyes and said, "Sister Wan'er is not such a stingy person. She was fine when I left, Xiao You'er, you are talking nonsense, later Wan'er When my sister comes down, I will ask her myself!"

Shui Xinyou just shook his head without saying a word, drinking tea by himself.But Ning Yufan stared at Yun and Shui with big eyes, and he was still muttering.Seeing her insane, Shui Zhihuan patted her on the head and said, "Xiaofan, what are you talking about? About Senior Yun and Master, Master and Senior Yun? Don't you have a fever?"

Ning Yufan was in a bad mood at first, and Shui Zhihuan made trouble, so angry that she threw her head over Shui Zhihuan's arm, stood up suddenly and said angrily, "Little uncle, don't keep patting me. Is the head okay?"

Shui Zhihuan didn't know why Ning Yufan got angry, and followed her to get up and said, "Xiaofan, this is in front of your master, don't be too presumptuous. I am your elder, and I pat your head to show love for you! Why not? Ah, tell me, why not?" After saying that, he stretched out his hand and wanted to pat again.

Although Ning Yufan is young, he is not short in height, fully half a head taller than Shui Zhihuan.Although Shui Zhihuan raised his hand, he was limited in the azimuth space, and it was not easy to attack.Relying on his height advantage, Ning Yufan sideways avoided.Shui Zhihuan failed in one blow, but he is a master after all, so how can he easily admit defeat?Frowning, he stretched out both hands, grabbed the two cups of tea on the table, and poured them out with a bang.

Shui Zhihuan's moves are not ruthless, but his movements are light and agile and his position is accurate, which is quite true to Minato.Ning Yufan dodged this cup, but he couldn't dodge that one, so he didn't dodge at all, those two cups of tea were all on his body.Shui Zhihuan was startled when he saw this, he stepped forward and pushed Ning Yufan forward, and shouted, "Oh, Xiaofan, you are so stupid?! Why didn't you hide? At least it can save me from the crime of drinking a glass of water." He said happily With a smile, he straightened Ning Yufan's clothes and said, "That's all, seeing you are so obedient, you can be regarded as my uncle who taught you a lesson. Remember in the future, don't be disrespectful to your little uncle!" Said He happily sat back on his seat, but as soon as he sat down, he felt that something was wrong, so he hurriedly said to Shui Xinyou: "Senior sister, is it okay to discipline your apprentice?"

Shui Xin touched Shui Zhihuan's forehead, and said angrily, "Is there someone who disciplines you like this?" Just as he was about to say a few more words, Ning Yufan turned around resentfully, and said, "Master, I feel a little uncomfortable, so I'm going back first. "

Shui Xinyou nodded with a smile and said, "Forget it, you go first, and I'll call you when you're eating."

Ning Yufan saluted with all his hands on his back, and left in response.Shui Zhihuan didn't understand, so he thought to himself: "Why did I just splash water on her to be so arrogant? What's wrong with this child?" He pondered for a moment, still didn't quite understand, and whispered: "Senior sister, Xiaofan, she , she in the end..."

Shui Xinyou snorted coldly, glanced at Yun Chenxiao and said, "Then why don't you ask Miss Yun next to you? Our Xiaofan has always been fine, why have we stayed with you for the past few days? ?”

Hearing this, Yun Chenxiao felt even more aggrieved, and argued: "How can I blame the child? Did I provoke her? Xiao You'er, you, you..." Pointing at Shui Xinyou, she was so angry No more words came out.

But Shui Xinyou just sipped the tea comfortably, with a treacherous and weird smile unconsciously showing on the corner of his mouth.Yun Chenxiao's hair got hairy when he saw it, and thought: "Tsk tsk, what's wrong with Xiao You'er? I have to be more careful..."

Just as she was thinking wildly, Murong Wan had already changed her clothes and came downstairs, greeted everyone, Yun Chenxiao said with a smile: "How is it? I said sister Wan'er is fine, huh?" She winked at Murong Wan while talking smile.Murong Wan was full of bitterness and swallowed it, but she didn't say anything, she just smiled back.

Yun Chenxiao nodded, leaned close to Murong Wan's ear, covered her mouth with her hands, and said softly: "Just now Xiao You'er said you would be angry, I see... Oh, sister Wan'er, why are your eye circles so red? Are you really crying?" It was originally a whisper in someone's ear, but in the last sentence, the cloud puppy suddenly yelled as if someone had stepped on its tail.

When she yelled, Murong Wan was so shocked that her eardrums collapsed, and she was so ashamed that her ears turned red.Murong Wan only pulled Yun Chen's clothes by the hem, and lightly stepped on her foot.

Only then did Yun Chenxiao stop talking, and helplessly glanced at Shui Xinyou, only to see her toasting herself with a smile, and toasting herself with tea instead of wine, with the attitude of a winner.

Yun Chenxiao pouted and frowned, and had no choice but to take a drink from the cup, still wondering in her heart: "Sister Wan'er is not a narrow-minded person, there must be something else hidden!"

While speaking, Liu Rumei sat down.For some reason, Yun Chenxiao subconsciously looked at Liu Rumei.But seeing that Liu Rumei's temples and forehead hair were slightly wet, and her cuffs were also stained with water, it seemed that she had just washed her face.Even so, it still didn't cover the reddish eye circles.Yun Chenxiao looked at this, looked at that, his thoughts changed sharply, as if he suddenly understood, he smiled to himself: "I'm so confused. Miss Liu and Wan'er met each other early in the morning, and they have been together day and night for the past ten years. Feelings are naturally not inferior to me and Xiao You'er. Hehe, who knows that sister Wan'er has no crush, she's just talking nonsense!" Thinking of this, she laughed with relief, and suddenly patted Liu Rumei on the shoulder and said, "So that's how it is, that's how it is." Everyone was puzzled, but Yun Chenxiao just looked at Murong Wan and Liu Rumei and laughed without saying a word.

Shui Xinyou saw that Yun Chenxiao was not enlightened, and she was still pretentious, so she wanted to beat her up.Immediately, he quietly threw a peanut as a warning.Yun Chenxiao accepted the attack calmly, thinking that Shui Xinyou was playing his temper, and hurried over to push Shui Zhihuan to another place, and sat down beside Shui Xinyou, holding the plate of peanuts in his arms, He smiled and said, "Don't waste food! I'll sit closer, if you want to fight, just do it."

Shui Xinyou slammed down hard, pinching Yun Chenxiao's leg.It is really old wounds that have not healed, and new wounds have been added.Yun Chenxiao secretly complained, but she heard Shui Xinyou said in a calm voice, "Where are the disciples of the fire and earth sects?"

As soon as the voice fell, two people came in response.Yun Chenxiao looked up, and saw a tall and tall man and a short man, both called "Sect Master", and knelt down on one knee at the same time, clasping their fists in salute.Yun Chenxiao was stunned, took a long breath, carefully examined the "Master of the Water Gate" beside him, and said enviously: "The master of the Five Elements Gate, the imperial master, the chief assistant Ge Kui. Xiao You'er is really talented. That's all I have to do, Only then can she show off her extraordinary talent."

Over there, Shui Zhihuan seemed to have read Yun Chenxiao's mind, and said softly: "What is this? Someday you will go to watch our senior sister go to court, or go to Wenyuan Pavilion to watch the ministers discuss politics, and you will know what prestige is." Woolen cloth."

Hearing these words, Yun Chenxiao suddenly thought of her father, commanding the three armies, talking and laughing to defeat the enemy, in terms of majesty, who can compare with Yun Zhengting, the commander-in-chief of the eight provinces?A civil servant, a general, the pillar of the country.The ancestors of the Yun family should be happy or sad when they see this family is flourishing, civil and military flourishing!Yun Chenxiao smiled noncommittally and said nothing more.

After the fire and wood disciples stood up, Shui Xinyou said again: "I teach everyone to come, and I also want everyone to have a testimony. In the past ten years, except for my water gate, the other four sects, I am afraid that the handed down one Is the iron box of the precious mirror on me?"

When everyone heard this, their hearts shivered, and they all bowed their heads and shut their mouths, as if they were mourning their concubines.Only the Huo Sect disciple said: "What the master said is reasonable. This mirror and iron box is related to my Five Elements Sect, and even the world's plans. It cannot be careless. Please tell the master clearly."

Shui Xinyou nodded and said: "That's right. Hehe, in fact, only Miss Yun next to me knows where the mirror iron box is." As he spoke, he glanced at Yun Chenxiao, as if to ask Yun Chen Xiao speaks.

Yun Chenxiao was not cryptic, and said bluntly: "The Jingxu iron box is actually on the body of a strange old man..." At the moment, he explained the ins and outs of the iron box in this way.After she finished speaking, Shui Xinyou offered a cup of tea, and said: "Everyone, you are all the leaders of the younger generation of the Five Elements Sect, and you will inherit Master's career in the future. For some personal reasons, your master may be quite fond of me. There are criticisms, which is inevitable. My ability is limited, but since I have been in the position of the master of the Five Elements Gate for a day, I have to bear the responsibility for the Five Elements Gate for a day. I call everyone here today, just to share something with you." Said Then he took out something from his wide sleeve and placed it in the center of the Eight Immortals table.

Everyone was curious and looked closely, only to see that it was a square clay sculpture cube, which was divided into countless small grids, and the writing in the grids could be seen faintly.Everyone was puzzled, but Yun Chenxiao yelled out: "Mirror...Mirror mirror iron box?! Xiao Youer, do you still have it?"

Everyone was shocked when they heard the words, how could they know that this inconspicuous mud dumpling is the mirror iron box?Everyone moved over, wishing they could stick their eyes on the mud, and the Tumen disciple even took out the magnifying glass in his pocket to observe carefully.

Murong Wan didn't care about the iron box or not, but seeing that Yun Chenxiao was staring at the mud, she asked softly, "Xiao Yun, you didn't dig that iron box out in Yueqing City, How do you say it is a mirror iron box?"

Yun Chenxiao smiled when she heard the words, and was about to explain, but Shui Xinyou said: "What Junior Sister Murong said is absolutely true, this mud is not the Jingxu iron box, but just a clay model. In the past ten years, about the items in the Jingxu iron box, This seat is the only one."

Seeing Shui Xinyou's deep and mature appearance, Yun Chenxiao was completely different from her usual coquettish and coquettish behavior, she laughed secretly in her heart, and interjected: "Yeah, back then, Xiao You'er and I were avoiding that old monster's pursuit, and at the same time... I want to open this broken box. Who knows that the box is like being cursed, and I can’t open it no matter what, so Xiao You’er came up with such a way to print the writing on the box on the mud for future research.”

Everyone nodded in agreement, Shui Xinyou raised his eyes to look at Yun Chenxiao, but saw her bright eyes, as bright as morning stars, smiling at him.Just as Shui Xinyou was about to clarify the facts, Yun Chenxiao had already held her hand tightly, and said softly: "Master Shuimen, I am your most loyal disciple, what are you talking about..."

Shui Xinyou felt as if the sun was shining in her heart, she sighed contentedly, and held Yun Chenxiao with her backhand, their fingers intertwined, Shui Xinyou said again: "I have read the writing on this iron box over and over again. Many times, no matter whether you read it horizontally or vertically, it just doesn’t make sense. Maybe these words have no meaning? In short, let’s wait until we find the old man and get the mirror box. As for this clay model, if you are interested Study it, you can take it yourself, just don’t damage it..."

Shui Zhihuan suddenly realized: "No wonder senior sister always likes to play with this mud. It turns out that there is a twist in it."

The rest of the people all know that the water gate master is very intelligent, even the water gate master can't see why, these ordinary people naturally keep a respectful distance from this clay box.Only that Liu Rumei stopped there and looked carefully, sometimes resting her chin in thought, sometimes frowning and scratching her head.Shui Xinyou persuaded her to take it back to the house for a closer look, but she shook her head again and again.

************************************************** ***************

Luoyang, the eastern capital, is located in the prosperous Central Plains, where there are night markets, restaurants, teahouses and casinos.Xue Wenbin, the founding emperor of Dayan, loved Luoyang so much that he would stay in the palace for several months every year.It is also the relaxation of the night ban in Luoyang, and it is forbidden to go out after the third watch.Therefore, the degree of excitement in the Eastern Capital is even worse than that in Chang'an.

After dinner that night, each of the five elements had their own fun.Shui Zhihuan is naturally a curious master, so he stubbornly finds someone to accompany him to go shopping in the night market.She knew that she couldn't find Yun and Shui, so as not to disturb the reminiscence of the reunion, she looked for someone else.At first she went to find Murong Wan, but Murong Wan shied away from feeling unwell, so she went to Ning Yufan again.Unexpectedly, Ning Yufan is also troubled, so why bother with her.Shui Zhihuan had no choice but to pull Liu Rumei.Liu Rumei knew that Murong Wan was not hesitating, and wanted to take the opportunity to go out with her to relax, so she discussed with Shui Zhihuan, one to call Murong Wan, and the other to call Ning Yufan.Murong Wan was thin-skinned, and couldn't bear to be persuaded by others, so she reluctantly went.The four of them were used to fighting, and Ning Yufan didn't want to spoil everyone's interest, so he followed along, just to make up for the number.

It's midsummer, the vegetation is luxuriant, and the flowers are blooming.The evening breeze is blowing, the night is low, the stars are twinkling, and the moon is in the sky, which naturally has a harmonious and quiet flavor.The four of them walked along the embankment of the Luohe River, and saw that the lights of the flower market echoed each other, shining like daytime, but it looked like a Lantern Festival in Shangyuan.However, Murong Wan saw the happy scene, but it triggered the sadness in her heart, but she was depressed and forced to smile.Seeing it in her eyes, Liu Rumei was worried in her heart, and she sighed for a long time, unable to enjoy herself to the fullest.Ning Yufan is a young man with a rather open-minded heart. Although there are some emotions in his heart, they come and go quickly. For this beautiful night, he can let go of his heart and plan to have fun.The happiest one is Shui Zhihuan.She is naive and innocent, but also has a muddleheaded temper. She has nothing to do with the melancholy of love, the distress of unrequited love.Although there is wine today and drunk today, everything is really safe, and I had a good night of laughing and joking.

In the blink of an eye, the second watch was over, and the four of them were about to go home, but Shui Zhihuan's stomach growled suddenly, and the other three smiled knowingly.Now I found a stall to buy wontons, Liu Rumei stepped forward first, found an empty table and sat down, greeted the shopkeeper and said, "Shop, there are four bowls of wontons, one bowl needs more chili, one bowl needs more vinegar, and one bowl does not need chopped green onion." ..."

The four of them have different eating habits, and every time they go out to eat, Liu Rumei has to tell her carefully, but before she finished speaking this time, Murong Wan just pulled her away, turned around hurriedly, and said half ashamed and half embarrassing: "Sister, let's go, let's go!" Change places to eat."

Liu Ru's eyebrows were full of doubts before she opened her mouth, but Shui Zhihuan sat down and said: "Don't run away, I'm here, I'm starving to death!" Then he said: "Shopkeeper, you came out to greet customers... ..."

After calling for a long time, there was still no answer, Shui Zhihuan couldn't bear the hunger in his stomach, so he went straight forward, pulled up the sleeve of the shopkeeper, and wanted to speak.

At this moment, the shopkeeper moved extremely quickly, covering Shui Zhihuan's mouth with one hand, and winking at her.Seeing this person, Shui Zhihuan had already let go of half of his heart, and was about to nod his head, when he saw a face blackened by coal showing under the stove, he said angrily: "Damn puppy, what the hell is going on with this firewood?" Is it? Why can’t the fire be lit? Why don’t you take a look…”

Everyone felt that the voice was very familiar, and hurriedly probed to see it.I saw a person beside the stove with disheveled hair and dusty white clothes. Although he was a bit embarrassed, it was hard to conceal his natural beauty.Just like that day after the girl descended to earth, she was tainted with the atmosphere of human fireworks, noble and elegant, but also more simple and honest and lovely.

The surprise of the four of them was no small matter.Dare to love this person is Master Shui Xin You Shui.Thinking about that Shui Xinyou is so clean and obsessed in his daily life, let alone dust on his white clothes, even a fly would not want to fly on it, coupled with his coldness and aloofness, he always looks dignified and dignified.It was thanks to Yun Xiaogou that he was able to see Shui Dashoufu's sloppy and lazy appearance today, and he really has no regrets in this life.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay for a long while, neither were they really laughing nor talking, it was extremely embarrassing.It was still Yun Chenxiao who was clever, and ran over to smooth things over and said, "Guests, please sit down, Wonton is here, here it is!" After saying that, he greeted everyone to sit down, pulled up Shui Xinyou, who was in a daze, and took a seat from the chopping board. She took out a basin of water to help her wash her face.

When Murong Wan saw Yun Chenxiao, she knew that Shui Xinyou would be there, so she didn't want to meet them face to face.However, at this moment, he couldn't run anymore, so he could only sit down as he said.

Only Shui Zhihuan asked loudly: "Senior Sister, why are you here selling wontons instead of going to Huaqianyuexia? Ah, could it be that you will not be an official in the future, and you want to make a living with Sister Yun?"

One sentence only made everyone smile and smile.Yun Chenxiao laughed, and said: "Ah Huan is right, you guys have a taste of this Yun's wonton later."

When Shui Xinyou heard this, she was displeased, and whispered in Yun Chenxiao's ear, "Why is it Yun's Wonton?"

Yun Chenxiao scratched his head and raised his eyebrows, thinking: "Even your surname should be Yun, it is most appropriate to say that this is Yun's Wonton." But he smiled and said: "No, no, naturally it should be called' Shuijia wonton' is the right one! May I ask where there are wontons, and the shepherd boy pointed to Shuijia Village."

Shui Xinyou chuckled, and said: "It's just that you have a lot of tricks, that's all, my Grand Master gave it a name, and I will call it 'Yunshui Wonton'."

Yun Chenxiao was overjoyed upon hearing the words, chuckled, and couldn't help but kiss Shui Xinyou lightly on the cheek.While speaking, the water in the pot was already boiling, Yun Chenxiao hurriedly put the wontons in the pot, knelt down and added more firewood, Shui Xinyou helped put in the seasoning, then turned around and took out six large bowls.Yun Chenxiao smiled appreciatively, Shui Xinyou raised his sleeves to wipe off the sweat and ashes for Yun Chenxiao.The two rubbed their ears and temples together, talking and laughing for a while, and the fragrance of the wontons came out of the pot repeatedly, which could be smelled lightly.Yun Chenxiao lifted the lid of the pot and poured it out carefully, while Shui Xinyou watched intently from the side, and kept telling him to "be careful when it's scalding".

Water vapor shrouded the two of Yun and Shui. Taking advantage of the dots of stars on the dark sky and the dying lights of the flower market in the distance, the scene seemed warm and happy, as if it was a paradise far away from the world, quiet and serene.Everything is ready, Yun and Shui are really like the owner of the store, they went over one by one, hand in hand, respectfully said: "Yunshui wonton, come, let's try together..."

Everyone talked and laughed, and took a bite with great interest, but the taste was really not very good.But the master's family is very kind, not to mention that the two of them will expect to make a living from this in the future, how can they spoil the family's elegance?At the moment, they are all sticking out their thumbs, full of praise, only talking about Yun and Shui from ear to ear, and bluntly saying that they will make another two pots.Everyone was horrified, and now they stared at each other, picked up the countless wontons in the bowl, and stopped the voices of praise one after another.

Everyone ate a few more symbolic mouthfuls, and Ning Yufan asked: "Senior Yun, Master, you, why are you suddenly selling wontons? What's going on here?"

Yun and Shui looked at each other and smiled, Yun Chen Xiao said: "Well, it was purely careless, but I never thought our craftsmanship is so good, haha, it seems that I will not worry about starving to death in the future!" After finishing speaking, he ate a wonton , She was so hot that she breathed out and stuck out her tongue, waving her hands like chickens flapping their wings.Shui Xinyou complained, and gave her a glass of cold water.

Yun Chenxiao rinsed her mouth, and then said slowly.
