The sun shines through the lush forest, and mottled light spots bend down.
The distant sound of gurgling water echoed in the mountains.
Several blue magpies competed with each other on the treetops and circled in the air.
The dewdrops gathered on the grass blades soaked the boots of the group.
Brother! Look over there, Li Wushuang excitedly patted Liu Qi on the shoulder, his eyes already drifting into the distance.
Everyone followed Li Wushuang's gaze.
In the maple forest, a beautiful figure is slowly coming from another intersection. She is wearing a green dress and a white skirt, walking lightly, and is reflected by the warm sun on the yellow maple leaves. The scenery is picturesque. A person is wearing coarse linen clothes, tall, and carrying a piece of cake on his shoulder.
Axe. One person
The black hair is tied up, the forehead is low and narrow, the eyes are full of wildness and power, and he is dressed in red. The other person is holding a fan in his hand, with a face like an oval, curved eyebrows, red lips and white teeth, a thin body, dressed in white, and a pair of big eyes staring at
Liu Qi couldn't take his eyes off him.
Li Xiaozhi was stunned, shook Li Bo's arm next to him and said with a silly smile, "Second Young Master, Miss Lin is smiling at me."
Li Bo looked at Li Xiaozhi's infatuation and shook his head and laughed.
After Liu Qi glanced at Lin Daiyu, she moved her gaze to the white-robed young man behind her. The two looked at each other and smiled knowingly.
When Lin Daiyu saw Liu Qi's faint smile, she felt shy and looked away.
Fatty Li, long time no see, you haven’t changed at all, hahaha. A big young man in linen clothes came over and patted Li Wushuang heavily on the shoulder.
Big man, aren't you the same as before? You talk like thunder, and Li Wushuang laughed.
After the two of them finished speaking, the two teams of people met.
Lin Daiyu stood coldly beside Liu Qi, but stopped talking.
Brother, let me introduce to you,
Li Wushuang pointed at Lin Daiyu, this is Miss Lin, the daughter of the city lord.
Liu Qi nodded to Lin Daiyu.
Then he pointed to the big man in coarse linen clothes. This is Meng Bo, the son of the city lord of Jiangchuan City. The one in red is Jiang Yichuan, the son of Zhenbei General Jiang He. They are both my good brothers.
Big guy, Yichuan, this is my eldest brother, Liu Qi.
Liu Qiyi smiled in greeting.
Hey, big man, why haven’t I seen this guy before? Li Wushuang pointed at the boy in white.
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Meng Bo's face, Oh, this is Nangong Shi, my friend.
Nangong Shi? Do you know Nangong Xue? Li Wushuang asked curiously.
Nangong Shi shook his head with a smile, a small dimple forming at the corner of his mouth.
Jiang Yichuan coughed twice: It's getting late, let's talk about it when we get back.
Outside the Jiutian Mountains.
Several family heads had already arrived in front of the crystal plaque early to stop and watch.
far away
Brother Li, this kid Wushuang is getting more and more outstanding! Lin Ruhai said with a smile.
Alas, I always fail to live up to expectations, but this time it was surprising. Li Wanlong's face was rosy and he seemed to be in a good mood.
Liu Qi, who was previously at the top of the list, is a descendant of the Li family?
Li Wanlong shook his head, he was Shuang'er's friend.
Which kid didn't have any impression? Lin Ruhai became interested.
Baixiaolou's intelligence showed that this child had lived with a blind man since he was a child, Li Wanlong said softly.
Lin Ruhai became serious when he heard about the blind man.
Are you saying he is the blind man's apprentice? Lin Ruhai asked.
Li Wanlong shook his head, not sure, it must be.
After a while, Li Wushuang and his entourage returned in great force.
Everyone gathered around the crystal plaque and looked carefully for their names.
Li Wushuang ranked first, 35,000.
The second in Ming and Qing Dynasties, 16900.
Lin Daiyu is third, 10,500.
………………
………………
Okay, Fatty, top of the list, Meng Bo said loudly.
Li Wushuang said calmly: "It's no big deal to get first place in the small trial. I'll treat everyone to a drink when this is over."
I want ten bottles of orchids to get me drunk, Jiang Yichuan said with a wicked smile.
Enough.
Lin Ruhai waved and said: Everyone's ranking is on the crystal card. After statistics: Li's Mansion is first, City Lord's Mansion is second, Ming Family is third, and Zi Family is fourth. Everyone goes back to rest today, and the second round of competition will be held tomorrow.
Liu Qi returned to House No. 7, and Yu Xia'er was waiting at the door.
Seeing Liu Qi coming back, Yu Xia'er smiled and said, "He's back? He's not hurt, right?"
Liu Qi turned around and said: Everything is fine.
Yu Xia'er threw herself into Liu Qi's arms, buried her head in Liu Qi's chest, and wrapped her hands around Liu Qi's neck.
Everything was so sudden, Liu Qi was stunned on the spot, her hands at a loss.
The little brother beneath him suddenly reacted and became hot all over.
Calm down! Calm down! Liu Qi thought silently in her heart.
Yu Xia'er felt something strange about Liu Qi's body, and felt sweet in her heart, but she didn't dare to move again.
For a moment, time was silent, with only each other's heartbeats remaining.
Leaving Liu Qi's chest, Yu Xia'er smiled slyly, "You idiot, don't you want me to come in and sit down?"
In the courtyard
It's quite spacious here, but you're the only one? Yuxia'er smiled half-heartedly.
Liu Qihan smiled and said: A person cannot hide his beauty in a golden house.
Yuxiaer murmured in a low voice: I hate it.
How is the three-step cultivation going?
Liu Qi shook his head.
Go to Xiaolong Peak and I’ll teach you! Yuxia’er’s eyes were shining with light.
Liu Qi hesitated: There will be a game tomorrow.
Seeing Yu Xia'er's murderous eyes, Liu Qi chose to compromise.
Yuxia'er took three steps and walked in front unhurriedly.
Liu Qiyun took three strenuous steps and followed behind.
An hour later, the two came to the path on the west side of Xiaolong Peak.
You take a rest, and we'll set off in a quarter of an hour. When Yuxiaer saw Liu Qi panting, she felt funny and a little distressed.
Liu Qi leaned against the tree, panting heavily, her back was wet with sweat, and her clothes clung to her back.
Yu Xia'er gently wiped Liu Qi's cheek with a handkerchief.
The girl's unique smell of powder floated into her nostrils, Osmanthus? Liu Qi guessed in her mind.
Liu Qi looked at the person in front of her quietly. Her nose was slightly straight and her skin was as white as snow. Her heart suddenly surged with blood. She took a step forward and kissed Yu Xia'er on the lips.
Yu Xia'er stopped moving her hands and her body became stiff.
Yu Xia'er's mind went blank. After a breath, Yu Xia'er pushed Liu Qi away: Go up the mountain! Leave a silhouette behind.
Looking at Yu Xia'er's back, Liu Qi licked her lips and followed Yu Xia'er.
Liu Qi, hurry up...
…………
It’s a hundred times, come on! Yuxia’er giggled.
hurry up,………
…………
As the sun set, Liu Qi came to the top of the mountain for the 201st time.
Yuxiaer smoothed her skirt, sat on the ground, and looked into the distance.
Liu Qi held the weight on her legs and sat next to Yu Xia'er, looking at the setting sun on the horizon.
The scenery here is so beautiful! But the sunset is infinitely better, and it's only almost dusk. Yuxia'er showed a longing look.
Liu Qi smiled and said: The sparse shadows are slanting across the clear and shallow water, and the faint fragrance is floating in the moonlight at dusk.
After saying this, the two looked at each other with smiles in their eyes.
Liu Qi reached out and held Yu Xia'er in her arms, and Yu Xia'er leaned on Liu Qi's shoulder.
What's the name of that river? Liu Qidao.
Looking at the river in front of her, Yu Xia'er smiled and said: Jiuqu River, I heard that this river leads to the imperial capital, I don't know if it is true or not. Legend has it that His Majesty led an army of 400,000 to the east and was stationed at Xiaolong Peak. This is how Xiaolong Peak got its name.
Come. At that time, Queen Qu Niang was also with His Majesty. Queen Qu Niang was born with no
She has spiritual roots, although she cannot cultivate them, but she has the appearance of overwhelming the country. Your Majesty is fascinated by her. After the Eastern Expedition is over and your Majesty's subordinates return to the court, the queen becomes ill and soon abandons the world. Your Majesty has not yet seen her.
Marry. Because of missing the queen, His Majesty ordered the Jiuyang River to be diverted to the imperial capital and renamed Jiuqu River.
After Yuxia'er finished speaking, she sighed softly, looking extremely sad.
