【Xiaming】Dyeing paper

He was lying on the roof alone, with his head resting on the cold hard tiles, looking at the bright moon in the sky, he couldn't help but think of the ice-cold and unusually soft touch in his arms that day.

After Fang Siming woke up, he was not angry at his reckless behavior.After only being silent for a moment, he rebuked nonsense in a low voice, and then disappeared without looking back.

Fang Siming is not a stupid person, he already knows some things without clarifying them.

With such a cautious temperament, the man probably found out early in the morning that he was from the Liu family.Last night he had an incense attack again - he was always out of curiosity, but this time he didn't ask anything, and the other party could naturally guess that he already knew about the dementor incense.

Fang Siming's face was still pale when he left, but he didn't ask to stay.

Even if he stayed, what would he want Fang Siming to say?

He had never thought about people like this before, even though he felt that it was not because of the dementor incense, but if he really wanted to say something, he didn't know what to say to explain it.

What's more, this is completely unreasonable... Of course, there is no reason for it.

It's just that he vaguely feels that he still has too many unknown things.So much so that he was suddenly a little scared, as if as long as he got closer, Fang Siming would only be further away from him.

He was very disturbed, and he had no intention of going back to Wudang Mountain for the time being.He only passed on Feiying to Zheng Juhe, saying that he would stay in the Central Plains for a while.Zheng Juhe thought he was still with Xiangshuai, so naturally he didn't stop him.But in fact, he had left Chu Liuxiang and his party long ago, and stayed in Luo Town alone.When bidding farewell to Xiangshuai and his party, Su Rongrong pulled him aside and persuaded him a lot.He had always respected Su Rongrong, but this time he was uncharacteristically determined to stand by Fang Siming's side.Su Rongrong's mind was clear, seeing him like this, she no longer persuaded him deeply, but only told him to be more careful, and left Luo Town with Chu Liuxiang.

He knew in his heart that what Su Rongrong said was not unreasonable.He was impulsive and seemed extremely determined, but had he ever really been able to see clearly what was in his heart?Or, does he really know anything about Fang Siming?He could not refute what the other party said, so he felt even more uneasy.

He tossed and turned at night, unable to fall asleep, fell asleep in the middle of the night, but woke up early again.He left the inn and planned to walk around, but when he arrived at the tea stand at the ferry, he suddenly heard someone call Shaoxia.

When he turned his head, he saw two people dressed as knight-errants sitting in the tea stall, but he couldn't remember where he had seen them before.He was thinking to himself, but he saw the woman in red who greeted him come forward, patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Young man, don't you remember me now? We've lived and died together .”

"Are you...the heroine who went to the Shenlong Gang together...?"

He remembered the identity of the woman in front of him, opened his eyes wide and exclaimed.Compared to that day, the woman was much bolder for some reason, and she smiled brighter when she heard his words: "The last time I was with those people from the rivers and lakes who made temporary companions, it was inconvenient to exchange names with you, but it happened that I met again now." Yes. My name is Lan Qiyun, since you are young, why don't you... call me sister?"

At this time, when he saw the person he met when he first entered the rivers and lakes that day, he felt a little emotional for a moment. The other party was full of enthusiasm, so he no longer shied away, and only said kindly: "Sister Ayun."

It's just that as soon as the words fell, the man sitting on the side stepped forward and said coolly: "Stinky boy, who allowed you to be called Ayun?"

Only then did he notice a rather unfamiliar young man sitting in the tea stand.Before he could react, Lan Qiyun took his hand, pulled him to the seat, stretched out her hand to pinch his face, and said with a smile: "Oh, you brat, you look more and more handsome after a few months gone."

His face was reddish, and he was about to escape from the opponent's "claw", but when he looked up, he saw the young man sitting opposite him looking at him with knife-like eyes, and then turned his head to look at the man who was slapping him with a strong resentment. Lan Qiyun said quietly: "Ah Yun, you have always been in chaos and abandoned! Am I not as good as him?"

Only then did Lan Qiyun stop her hands, she rolled her eyes at the young man and said, "Thanks for your words. How can you outshine him in looks?"

Seeing that the two of them were about to start arguing, he cleared his cough and said to Lan Qiyun, "Ah... Sister Lan, who is this young hero?"

He had a clear mind, and he had roughly guessed something by looking at the atmosphere of the two of them.But before Lan Qiyun could answer, the young man slapped the table and shouted anxiously: "Listen up, brat, I am Ah Yun's...of..."

When he said this, his momentum suddenly weakened a little.Taking another peek at Lan Qiyun's face, hesitantly asked without confidence: "Wife... fiancé?"

As soon as Lan Qiyun heard it, she stretched out her hands to slap him and scold him for talking nonsense, and she stopped when the other party screamed, as if she suddenly realized that there were outsiders here, so she stopped and looked around, with a rare expression on her face. Familiar with the younger daughter's attitude, she looked at him again and said shyly, "Don't listen to his nonsense, he and I are just going out together to take care of each other."

He made up his mind, so he didn't ask any more questions.He only bowed to the young man and said, "My surname is Liu, have you asked your surname?"

However, the other party obviously disliked Lan Qiyun because of his intimacy, and didn't give him any good looks.He only snorted, and said coolly: "Gu Mingxuan."

He called Big Brother Gu politely, then smiled at Lan Qiyun and said, "Brother Gu is a good-looking talent, he really matches Sister Lan."

Lan Qiyun blushed when she heard that, and made a gesture to hit him, but the young man was stunned for a moment, then a somewhat embarrassed look appeared on his face, he scratched his head and said awkwardly to him: "...you are smart."

Lan Qiyun glared at Gu Mingxuan, then turned her head and smiled at him: "Don't worry about my business, tell me how you are doing recently? That day I saw you rolling down the cliff, and I was also injured. Later, I, Feiying, called Xiaoguzi to come, and when I went to look for you, I could no longer see you. Fortunately, you are safe and sound, but looking at you like this, it seems that something happened to you?"

Lan Qiyun's eyes were so bright that she almost wrote the word gossip on her face.He didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he could only respond: "What happened there? It's just that I was rescued by... a nobleman that day." He paused, then smiled at Lan Qiyun and said, "Later, I met Xiang Shuai again, so I took the I took it to Wudang Mountain."

Most of the women in the Jianghu have a longing for the bandit commander who steps on the moon and stays fragrant, and Lan Qiyun is no exception.The other party was obviously stunned for a moment when he heard Xiangshuai's name, but then he grabbed him excitedly, ignored Gu Mingxuan's resentful gaze, and started asking left and right.He looked at Gu Mingxuan suddenly became playful, and began to tell Lan Qiyun about Chu Liuxiang's little hobbies and habits that were not painful or itchy.The other party was fascinated by what he heard, and Gu Mingxuan's face naturally became darker and darker.It wasn't until the latter seemed to be about to erupt that he couldn't hold back his smile and said, "Sister Lan, don't talk about Xiangshuai, what are you doing here this time?"

Lan Qiyun seemed to be still interested, but when she heard his question, she suddenly put on a mysterious expression, ticked her little finger towards him, leaned closer and whispered: "Have you ever heard of Wansheng Pavilion?"

He froze for a moment, then nodded and said, "Well... I heard."

Lan Qiyun continued: "A few days ago, there were rumors in the Jianghu that the Mingyue Villa here in the Central Plains is entrenched with the power of Wansheng Pavilion. We are here this time..."

Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Gu Mingxuan coughing.He looked up at Gu Mingxuan, but the other party rarely showed a serious expression, and said in a deep voice: "Ah Yun, it's better not to publicize this matter."

Lan Qiyun hesitated for a moment, then waved her hand and said: "It's okay, isn't Xiao Liu worshiped in Wudang? Anyway, he will know sooner or later." Gu Mingxuan seemed to have something to say, but Lan Qiyun took it for granted Seeing it, he continued: "The Wansheng Pavilion has become more and more rampant these days. You know the martial arts competition of the sects a few days ago? It was said to be a martial arts competition, but it was actually a plan to destroy the Wansheng Pavilion. The two of us recently I have nothing to do, and I plan to join in the fun. This time I plan to go to Mingyue Villa to find out the truth, so I can contribute in the future."

Gu Mingxuan glanced at Lan Qiyun helplessly, then turned his head towards him and sighed, "This Mingyue Villa is very evil, if it wasn't for Ayun who insisted on coming, I wouldn't want to go."

Lan Qiyun spat at the other party that he was not promising, then patted him on the shoulder and said: "Looking at you, you have made some progress these days, so we won't face the people in Wansheng Pavilion head-on this time, so there should be nothing wrong with you." Dangerous. Do you want to go to practice with us?"

He didn't like to join in the fun, and after taking a look at Gu Mingxuan's obviously dissatisfied expression, he smiled and said, "Sister Lan, I'm not good at skills, so I don't want to hold you back."

Lan Qiyun didn't force her, she just said it was a pity, then turned to talk to him about Chu Liuxiang.When it was getting late, Gu Mingxuan finally couldn't help but interrupted: "Ah Yun, should we go? If it is any later, it will be difficult to cross the river."

Lan Qiyun was still a little bit reluctant, but after all, it was important business, said that there would be a chance to get together again in the future, and walked to the side of the boat with Gu Mingxuan.

He almost told about everything Xiangshuai ate in the past few days before he could barely cope with Lan Qiyun's inquisition.He maintained a rather stiff smile on his face, and he was relieved when the two turned around.When he was about to leave, he inadvertently heard the conversation between the two fell into his ears.

"Hey, Ah Yun, what is the name of the young master of the Ten Thousand Saints Pavilion that you mentioned earlier might be in Mingyue Mountain Villa...Fang...what is it?"

"Fang Siming! I found out with great difficulty, why can't you even remember this?"

"You just said it once... Oh, it hurts, it hurts... Ah Yun, be gentle!"

He froze for a moment when he heard the familiar name, then turned around for a while, stepped forward and patted Gu Mingxuan on the shoulder, and waited for the two people who were arguing to turn around, then smiled and said softly: "Sister Lan, what are you doing?" When are you going to Mingyue Villa?"

Mingyue Villa is quite a distance from Luo Town, and it was already dark when they were on the way.Lan Qiyun was chatting with the boatman, he was sitting alone in the stern of the boat, staring at the sparkling water in a daze, but someone patted his shoulder suddenly.

As soon as he turned his head, he saw Gu Mingxuan's dark face.The other party threw the wine bag in his hand into his arms, and said unhappily; "The dew is heavy at night, Ayun asked me to give you this to warm your body."

He took the wine bag, looked at Gu Mingxuan's expression, suddenly burst out laughing, and said softly: "Brother Gu, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to disturb you."

Unexpectedly, Gu Mingxuan's complexion turned even worse when he heard this, and he glared at him and said, "Am I such a stingy person?" Then he changed the topic, and said with a bit of arrogance in his tone: "You boy, just wait for a while You're so poor, you're really unreliable. Just a face is a bit attractive, but my Ayun is not a girl who judges people by appearance, how could she like you?"

He suppressed a smile and nodded, and said solemnly: "Well, Big Brother Gu is world-class in martial arts and powerful. He will definitely do something great in the future. Naturally, Sister Lan won't be interested in a small person like me."

He learned this official accent from his elder brother, so it is more than enough to deal with a straight-hearted person like Gu Mingxuan, sure enough, after he finished speaking, Gu Mingxuan's expression turned pale.It's just that the other party sighed again suddenly, and said helplessly: "Who cares about being a big shot? But Ah Yun loves to join in the fun, and if I don't protect her, who can help her?"

His expression moved slightly, he turned to look at Gu Mingxuan and said, "Even though Sister Lan is a woman, her kung fu is not bad at all. Brother Gu, don't you have to worry so much?"

After he finished speaking, Gu Mingxuan rolled his eyes, glanced at him, shook his head and said, "What a brat, I don't even understand this." : "No matter how good Ayun's kung fu is, she is still an ordinary person. People have flesh and blood, and it is inevitable that they will be injured. Even if her kung fu is enough to protect herself, but even if she suffers a little injury..."

Gu Mingxuan pointed to his heart, then looked back at the happy woman in red standing at the bow of the boat, and said softly, "My place hurts just like her."

He half understood, but Fang Siming's pale face on the roof that day appeared in his mind, and his heart suddenly seemed to be pulled by something, and there were strands of pain.He involuntarily put his hand on his heart, and when he was in a trance, he heard Gu Mingxuan say: "You kid...do you have a sweetheart?"

He turned his head to look at Gu Mingxuan, blinked his eyes, he didn't know why some thoughts made people feel flustered, but he didn't know how to refute for a moment, he just said in a daze: "Ah?"

Gu Mingxuan looked at him with a flustered expression for a moment, and his heart became more determined, and he suddenly said as if facing a formidable enemy: "It's not Ah Yun!?"

This sentence brought him back to his senses completely, and he said helplessly, dumbfounded: "Brother Gu, I really have no unreasonable thoughts about Sister Lan...I have..."

When he said this, he suddenly stopped talking.After another long silence, he took a sip of the wine and felt the pungent taste rising from his throat, then changed the subject: "Let's not talk about these things. Brother Gu, the young master of the Wansheng Pavilion you just mentioned... Can you talk to me?"

As soon as he said these words, Lan Qiyun came up and said, "Hey, you two, what are you discussing secretly?"

Gu Mingxuan said: "Where are you sneaking around? This kid asked me about the young master of Wansheng Pavilion, Ayun, just tell him about it."

After hearing this, Lan Qiyun hesitated and said: "Actually... I don't know the specifics. Most of them are rumors from the Jianghu. I heard that the young master of the Wansheng Pavilion is Zhu Wengui's adopted son. He has studied martial arts since he was a child. He is very talented in nature, Zhu Wengui has put a lot of effort into training him. I don’t know what method he used, he is very proficient in almost all martial arts schools, and his own martial arts methods are very evil. Not quite the same."

She sighed, and continued: "Wansheng Pavilion has always been secretive, and this young master is even more low-key. Most people in the Jianghu only know that he is thoughtful and ruthless. As long as he makes a move, blood will flow like a river." business. I don't know any more...but..."

Lan Qiyun glanced at him, and said softly: "I have heard a secret about this young pavilion master."

He was stunned for a moment, and asked subconsciously.But Lan Qiyun refused to say it for a long time, her face was still blushing, and she seemed to have made up her mind after a while, she gritted her teeth and said: "This young pavilion master... seems to have some natural defects in his body."

"……defect?"

Gu Mingxuan was also stunned, and asked in confusion: "Ayun, why didn't you tell me this?"

But Lan Qiyun's face turned even redder, she scolded Gu Mingxuan, then pulled the confused latter aside, whispered a few words, then ran to the bow of the boat, and didn't even look here.He was about to ask, but was blocked by Gu Mingxuan, whose face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

"Don't ask, Ayun is a girl, how can I tell you such a thing?"

He was stunned for a while, but Gu Mingxuan leaned to the side, took a sip of wine, and said leisurely: "The young pavilion master seems to be suffering from eunuch disease."

"... Heavenly eunuch?"

Gu Mingxuan nodded, and then sighed: "Ah Yun came to inquire about such news... According to the young master's usual temper, if he finds out, we may not be able to get away easily this time."

He seemed to have just come back to his senses at this moment, his mind was in a mess, and he suddenly remembered Fang Siming's lonely look that day.

He stared blankly at the surface of the water, remained silent for a long time, and then murmured inaudibly: "I... really don't know anything..."

Gu Mingxuan didn't hear it clearly, but he didn't care about it either. He just sat down beside him, took a sip of wine, breathed a long sigh of relief, and said to him: "Hey, let's not talk about that. Who is your sweetheart? what happened?"

He gave the other party such a gag, and the depression in his heart just now was not so depressing.Not knowing whether to laugh or cry, he said, "Brother Gu...why are you like Sister Lan..."

Gu Mingxuan curled his lips, bumped his shoulder and said confidently: "It's human nature. But looking at you like this, I'm afraid you haven't chased him yet, have you?"

He was thinking about a lot of things in a mess. At this moment, he sighed helplessly, hesitated for a moment, and then said in a low voice: "He...is my savior. But he is very good at martial arts, and he always comes and goes. No trace. Up to now, I have only seen him a few times, and besides his name, I don't know anything about it..."

Holding the wine bag in his hand, he continued: "However, I am poor in martial arts and always have accidents. It seems that every time I see him, I have to cause him a lot of trouble."

Gu Mingxuan snorted, and said with some distaste: "You are a big man, but you are not as good as other girls. It's not unreasonable for people to look down on you."

He was stunned for a moment, and when he heard the word "girl" in the other party's mouth, he was about to argue, when a pair of eyes as deep as a lake against the candlelight flashed in his mind.After a long while, he sighed, and said with a wry smile: "It seems... I really don't know him at all. Whether he is good or bad, black or white, these things are all heard from other people's mouths. Actually, I have a lot to say I wanted to ask him. But I was afraid that the pressure would be too tight, which would make him push further."

"But you like that man, don't you?"

He turned his head abruptly, staring at Gu Mingxuan who suddenly spoke in a daze.The latter clicked his tongue, and said impatiently: "Really, what are you afraid of if you don't know? Who can know everything about a stranger at once? But if it's because of this, he hesitates and shrinks his head and tail, that's the one." Really not worth it."

"If you don't try it, you will never have a chance. You are always worried about these things that haven't happened, and you don't dare to approach him. When will you really understand him?"

He took another sip of wine, leaned against the side of the cabin and said: "There are also those hearsay things, although they may not be true, but they are not necessarily all. People wandering in this river and lake, after a long time, sometimes it is inevitable that they will Pretend yourself. Take Ayun for example, do you think the Ayun you saw this time is no different from the one you saw last time?"

After Gu Mingxuan finished speaking, he stood up, bent down and patted the stunned boy's shoulder, and said with an elusive smile on his face: "Seeing with your own eyes is not necessarily true, what others say How can it count?"

Gu Mingxuan stretched out his hand, pointed to his heart, and said with a smile, "The important thing is here."

He stared blankly at Gu Mingxuan for a long time, then suddenly stood up, shaking the boat along with it.Gu Mingxuan was startled by him, and was about to scold him, but when he looked up and saw his expression, he suddenly froze.

His eyes seemed to be shining brightly, glowing like stars.

He fixedly looked at Gu Mingxuan and said, "Brother Gu, you are right."

After he finished speaking, he turned his head and looked at the distant mountain villa with a little outline in the night, put his hand on his heart, and whispered softly: "This time, I will definitely...see him with my heart."
