The snowy peaks were shining at sunset, and the twilight colors were all over the place. The two held hands and returned to Wuya Temple. Yu Yao handed back to him the things left by Qingming, two pieces, a sword pill and a flying handle. sickle.
The Hidden Snow Sword was created by the five-color divine light and suffered considerable damage. Fortunately, it did not damage the root. It can be restored to its original state after being refined with alchemy fire. Wei Shiqi felt relieved. He came, sucked the sword pill into his belly, lifted up the flying sickle and looked at it carefully, and muttered: "Is this compensation?"
The flying sickle left to him by Qingming was exactly what Lu Ping left behind The five-color divine light sickle is made of neither gold nor wood. The style is simple and rough. It is integrated from blade to handle and bent like a hook. It seems to be refined from the bones of some kind of demon bird. The handle of the sickle is the spine. , the hook blade is a bird's head, and with a little movement, it feels top-heavy, far less convenient than the usual iron rod.
He weighed the weight and said in surprise: "How can I control the flying sickle because its center of gravity is unstable?"
Yu Yao explained to him that the hook sickle is different from the sword. , there is another ingenuity. Different hooks and sickles have different mental methods. The so-called one weapon and one method are clearly distinguishable. The five-color divine light sickle and the blood moon grass cutting sickle are the most precious treasures of the hook and sickle sect. They have always been inherited from the same strain. The method is not passed down to six generations. Hey, now that Lu Ping has passed away, no one can control the five-color divine light sickle, and it can only be used as an ordinary weapon.
Wei Shiqi originally intended to hand over the five-color divine light sickle to Yu Yao, but after hearing what she said, he gave up the idea. He thought for a moment and suddenly remembered the skill of the barbarians in playing the scimitar, arcing back and forth and making a circle. He tried to practice it for a while, and he got some insights.
His mind came to life. The five-color divine light was both offensive and defensive. In order to help him, Qingming left this sickle to him, probably with the same idea.
Wei Shiqi immediately put the five-color divine light sickle into his sword pouch and asked: "Did Qingming say anything?"
"He said that when you come back, Take a few days to rest, recuperate, and go to the Demon Suppression Tower to meet the leader."
Wei Shiqi's heart tightened, and he looked at the rolling mountains outside the window and didn't speak for a long time. It's finally coming, he thought
. His heart beat fiercely, and the curtain slowly opened. He could foresee everything that was coming, and the lowest secrets of the world would be revealed in front of him.
What would Taoist Ziyang want him to do?
Tapping his index finger on the window lattice, he thought deeply and found that he had a hint of expectation.
Yes, looking forward to it.
Yu Yao walked up to him, hugged his arm, shook it gently, and said with a smile: "It's late, what do you want to eat?"
Is this considered coquettish? Self-taught without a teacher? Wei Shiqi laughed "haha", "Have a drink, do whatever else you want, as long as you have 'meat'."
"Wait for me for a while and I'll be back!" Yu Yao tightened her arms and tilted her head , wiped her cheek on his shoulder like a kitten, and walked out the door with light steps..
You have to go eventually, and you have to live no matter how you live. Wei Shiqi's mood gradually calmed down. He took out the red jade gourd from the rotten silver ring, pulled out the stopper, and poured out the six-winged water snake. After being trapped in the gourd for a long time, the little snake became languid and curled up lazily, with its eyes half open and half closed, and even the jade corners on its forehead were dimmed a bit.
Wei Shiqi touched its cold body, found out a few poisonous spider venom sacs, and fed it to eat. The little snake became a little more energetic and wrapped around his fingers. , rubbing against each other, it seems that there is still something to be said.
"There is no more stock. I will take you to the Poisonous Spider Valley tomorrow to kill and pick up fresh meat."
The little snake seemed to understand his words and swam along his arm. On his shoulders, they curled up into a ball and fell asleep in a short while.
After waiting on the window sill for a while, he heard the sound of familiar footsteps on the plank road. He saw Yu Yao's graceful figure, holding a food box in her hand, running up the corridor in small steps, and hurried back. Go to a quiet room.
Seeing the six-winged water snake on his shoulder, Yu Yao hurriedly stopped her steps, pursed her lips in distress, and stopped talking.
Wei Shiqi placed the little snake in the corner, covered it with the Eight Girls Fairy Screen, and said casually: "Are you afraid of snakes?"
"It's okay. , I just don’t like it very much, I’m a little tired of it.” Yu Yao knelt down on the ground, opened the food box, took out a pot of wine, two wine cups, four dishes of food, deer, wild boar, pheasant, earth dragon snake, They are all 'meat' food.
She happily rolled up her sleeves, poured two cups of wine, raised her orchid fingers slightly, handed one cup to Wei Shiqi, took one herself, and said with a smile: "See you. Gentleman, Yunhu is not happy? If you drink this cup, you will be safe." Wei Shiqi touched the wine cup with her and drank it all. The wine was good wine, mellow and fragrant, refreshing and sweet. Yu Yao drank a cup of wine slowly with him, and ate a few pieces of meat gracefully, and the rest was all in Wei Shiqi's belly.
I don’t know if it was because of the drunkenness, but under the candlelight, Yu Yao’s cheeks were slightly red and her face was radiant. The corners of her eyes and eyebrows added a lot of charm.
She glanced at Wei Shiqi, tapped the time with her hands, and sang softly: "The bright moon and the clear breeze bring good nights together. The stars are easy to turn, and the joy never ends. Green bottles and green ladles are for you to consider." . If you don't drink tonight, how can you be happy?"
He paused and sang again: "The ice skin and jade bones are clear and there is no sweat, and the bright moon is full of fragrance in the water palace. The hairpin on the pillow and the clouds on the temples are in chaos. The courtyard is silent at midnight, and the stars are scattered across the river. When will the west wind come? "
In the quiet night, her voice is clear and sweet. , thrilling, somehow, Wei Shiqi felt some unknown premonition.
Can they make it to the end together?
