Chapter 2 Cheng Luan

Running sideways on the gravel path, she heard rustling. While running, a pair of diamond-patterned shoes suddenly flew, and under the double bun of hair was a graceful and detached figure.She was wearing a plain white silk singlet, with colorful butterflies sewn on the collar and wide sleeves, which complemented the blooming jasmine on the jade-colored pleated skirt.The silk and color matching of the clothes all over her body are all handled by her, as if she has painted Danqing herself and stepped out of the painting mischievously, with uncontrollable pride in her eyes. The music of Xiao Sao all over the sky echoed her footsteps, falling like ice flowers, rustling in her heart.This sound is like a dragon wandering leisurely in its seven orifices, the wind blows and the sound moves, and a sound is suddenly dragged, and the green waves are suddenly lifted on the flat ground, and strings of broken beads splash on the cheeks.In an instant, her state of mind was clear, and everything was flowing. She was a kite held far away, and she fell straight to the remote control's hand.

Fanshang Liuyu, Xiezhengming Palace, the one who can play this wonderful sound with a fifty-string harp can only be my father's good friend--Master Yang Azi with superb harp skills. The valley is lonely.In Silent Valley, only the side and father depend on each other for life. Even if the flowers, plants, insects and beasts of Hegu are companions, they can't escape the quietness after dark night.It's fine for Dad to play with antiques and practice calligraphy and painting, but he has a young heart on the side, and his greed and novelty can't be dispelled.Winding needles and threading, you can practice dazzling embroidery techniques without bothering; apply powder to dye the face, and there are only vines and moss in the eyes, who will see it?

The only hustle and bustle left is only when visitors from afar come to visit. One string and one tone.The sound of the big cymbal is clear, like the snow flying among the bamboos, and the sound is scattered; ...Nine bends of the ileum are not enough to listen to the sound of snapping fingers. When the hand left the string, he was leaping sideways into the banana leaf door, and shouted to the person who was holding Se: "Uncle Yang!" The lingering sound passed the girl's timid face and flew into the air.Azi Yang left behind his precious Guser, smiled and stood up and raised her sideways high, the sun lavishly gilded her with golden light.

The sideways smile was like a clear spring in a mountain stream, and the ding dong rang in Yang Azi's ears. "Uncle wants to stay for a few more days, and he can't disappear like the previous two days!" She hugged his neck sideways and acted like a baby.It's strange to say that her father is about the same age as Yang Azi, she treats him with the same respect as a master, and dare not make any mistakes.On the contrary, she always has all kinds of demands on Yang Azi who rarely comes to Guzhong, and she uses all the methods of her youngest daughter's family. Chen Xiangzi looked at her daughter with a smile.Over half a hundred years old, this girl was born, and she was so spoiled that she wanted to offer up all the treasures in the world.It's a pity that his wife died young. He was proficient in many skills, but he didn't know how to discipline his children.Before he knew it, he became the immobile banks, while his daughter was the flowing water, galloping along his broad arms to the distance.

Yang Azi laughed loudly, and took out a diabolo from the lotus clothes.With a light shake of the hand, the diabolo climbed onto the rope and spun quickly, buzzing like a swarm of bees.Sideways were filled with joy, seeing Yang Azi swung his hands and tossed it, the diabolo flew several zhang into the air, and when it fell down quickly, he pulled the rope to catch it, and the diabolo rang again and again.Dazzled by the sideways glance, he took the diabolo in amazement, drew a gourd in the same way and placed it on the rope.Unexpectedly, without moving his hand, the diabolo turned around and fell to the ground with a thud.Unconvinced, she pestered Azi Yang to learn the gestures, and concentrated on trying to figure it out.

Waiting for the side to play alone, Chen Xiangzi looked at his old friend thoughtfully, and then moved his eyes to his cerise.The black lacquer has completely faded, and the ancient se's bright light is as dark as ebony. This is the best "sound of nature" among the thirteen ses collected by Yang Azi.Now I come all the way to embrace the harp, presumably to bid farewell. The winding path leading to the house has been covered with weeds in a few days, and wild flowers are blooming vigorously.Chen Xiangzi suddenly felt that the days were too quiet, and his thoughts were vivid.Then a topic came up, and he asked Azi Yang, "Last time you said you took in an apprentice, how is it now? Is it satisfactory?" He rubbed his hands intentionally or unconsciously while speaking, trying to hide his envy.Over 60 years old, his hands are still as smooth as jade, like a nobleman soaked in goat's milk day and night, so delicate that there is not a trace of wrinkle.

Azi Yang nodded, with a calm and indifferent look in his eyes, "If I'm not mistaken, the bright moon may be able to outshine the blue. I finally found someone to entrust with my life's skills, how about you?" The mountains, valleys, flowers, and grass have remained unchanged for thousands of years, just like the life of Chen Xiangzi after she lived in seclusion.He glanced sideways worriedly, and said: "I have learned a lot, and I think swords, books, paintings, and disguises are the best in the world, but this girl only learned a little boxing and embroidering her legs, and Yu Jiando is still wandering outside the door. Not to mention the other three unique skills. Sigh, where can I find a successor in the barren mountains, I'm afraid... I'm going to bring my skills into the coffin!"

The shadows of the trees were whirling, Azi Yang looked at the mottled shadows on the ground, and sighed: "You have lived in seclusion for too long, why don't you go out with me for a walk, maybe you can meet young people with good bones outside." Chen Xiangzi stroked his white beard and pondered.His appearance is the same as that of a man in his thirties, except for his silver hair and this white beard.Sometimes he asked him why he didn't just put on a face, Chen Xiangzi smiled and said, if he didn't have these white hair and beard, others would regard him as her brother.He pouted sideways and said, there is nothing wrong with having an older brother, not to mention that there is no one else in this valley.

Famous generals with white heads.Chen Xiangzi's unique skills followed the dead leaves that fell every year and buried him in the deep valley. Sometimes he even thought about his former enemy. If he could be found, it would be a thrill.However, he lived in seclusion for too long, even the enemies had already forgotten him. "It's also good to go out and meet those old bones. From now on...the days are numbered." His bleak tone made Azi Yang frown slightly.The diabolo was struggling to flip on the side hand.Gu Se complained silently, and a stick of incense was burning silently beside him, and lightly threw a piece of incense ash, smashing his body to pieces on the desk.

Yang Azi smiled and said: "Ci'er is so old and has never been out, she must be very happy." Chen Xiangzi thought for a long time, and said slowly: "Before she is a minor, I don't want her to go out of the valley." The grievances on the rivers and lakes, looking at the thin body sideways, nodded. Sideways seemed to sense something, picked up the diabolo from the ground, and stared at the two of them blankly.The gloomy heat steamed up from the soles of her feet, enveloping her body like weeds. After that day, one person stayed in the valley.Chen Xiangzi left enough food, there are ready-made vegetables in the field, Xiao Nizi is very good at cooking, so there is nothing to worry about.Before leaving, he asked his daughter hesitantly, "Are you afraid?" He shook his head sideways, but pulled Yang Azi's sleeve, refusing to let her beloved uncle go.

Chen Xiangzi knew that her daughter's flamboyant fists and embroidered legs could barely deal with ordinary things in the Jianghu, and that Yanzhong had set up some traps, so she was a little relieved.But the loneliness he couldn't get over, could a little daughter's family survive?Isn't it too early to leave her alone now?After thinking about it, he pressed the side of his head and said with a smile: "How about Daddy bringing back a playmate who is as tall as you?" He glanced sideways at Azi Yang, and a playmate like Uncle seemed to be more to her liking, Shaking his head, he said, "Bring me a puppy... well, two is better! When I embroider, they also have a companion." The father and daughter pulled the hook with their little fingers, and the moment they let go, Chen Xiangzi felt a strong hesitation in his heart. Parting is more joy for Side.Thinking of the hornet's nest and the old raven's nest that she had admired for a long time, thinking of the secret paths and hidden caves she had found, too many things that could not be done or dared to do under the eyes of her father, and finally one day it will be completed.In order not to make her father sad, she smiled happily and waved goodbye to the two elders forcefully.This situation imprinted in Chen Xiangzi's eyes a feeling of nostalgia, which made him not show his face for a long time after embarking on the journey. The bullock cart that carried Yang Azi into the mountain slowly carried the two of them away.The setting sun reflected a mountain of wild flowers red, and the smile on the side eyebrows was brighter than the evening glow, and she spread her feet and ran up the hillside.Now this valley belongs to her alone, and the wind is warm on her body, and she feels indescribably happy in her heart. When night fell, Tired of climbing on the cypress tree, she suddenly heard the sound of her stomach growling, and her joyful expression suddenly dimmed. Dad, thinking of her spending the night alone with the barren mountains and valleys, the constant desolation gushing out like summer insects whispering, gnawing at her heart bit by bit. That night, she didn't eat anything, ran back to her room staggeringly, locked the doors and windows and sat at the foot of the bed with her knees hugged.Then, the sky slowly dawned. When he woke up sideways, the scorching hot sun outside scorched the whole valley.This put her in a good mood, and she forgot how helpless she was last night.After tidying up his face a little, he casually took out a piece of hard biscuit from the kitchen, gulped it down with water.A day of wantonness began again, she clapped her hands and walked out the door, thinking about it at the fork in the road, let's go to Taniguchi to have a look today, maybe Dad and the others will turn back. Walking to Taniguchi, she was surprised to find that there was really a car parked there, with high-saddle carved wheels and soft smoke curtains, and two snow-white horses were like close partners, touching each other with their heads down.She curiously walked over to pet it, the soft mane was more comfortable than the snow fox jacket made by her father, the two horses gently rubbed against her sleeves, and the warm air was exhaled from the nose, making her giggle . Suddenly, a slender young man appeared in front of her, just a few feet away from her, like a phantom born in mid-air, looked at her and smiled.Startled from the side, he stopped his hands and stared at the boy who fell from the sky with wide eyes. "How did you get here?" In the first greeting, she didn't ask who you are.After being shocked, the boy's face seemed to be in her heart from birth, and it was just a reunion at this moment.She blurted out, as if she had been waiting for him for a long time, as if it was predestined, that her father's departure was for his arrival. The boy smiled and pointed to the sky, and said, "I flew here by a big bird." Knowing that he owns these two extremely beautiful horses, she was a little jealous. She stopped between the horses and him, and looked at him carefully from head to toe.Wearing a satin brocade shirt with Polygon blue Chengluan pattern, a silver silk Luan belt around the waist, and a pair of suede boots, the eyebrows and eyes are calm and composed.He is so beautiful that it is suffocating to look at him for a long time. He squeezed out a smile with all his strength from the side, and said, "You think everyone is easy to deceive? I... am so smart!" After finishing speaking, his face was embarrassed Get flushed. The young man smiled quietly, and saw the composure and confidence of Ruyang Azi when he was caressing him.He walked slowly behind a pine tree, hid his body, poked his head out and winked at her.The strange demeanor and crooked smiling eyes seem to indicate that something wonderful will happen. Staring at him sideways, motionless.Perhaps at that moment, she had a premonition of the future with palpitations, just as the figure of the young man was covered by the shadow of the dry sky and trees, making her unpredictable but unable to avoid being attracted.Staring at him firmly, I heard my reproachful voice floating in the air, "Are you hiding and want to play hide-and-seek?" The boy slowly walked out from behind the tree, his eyes still smiling.But I saw him wearing a long gown of moon-white lake silk, a blood chalcedony mandarin duck pendant hanging from his waist, and sheepskin boots on his feet.If it wasn't for the fact that he never left his side view, the little girl almost thought that in hell, how could someone be so nimble and change her body around like a magic trick. He took a step back sideways, thinking of the blue sky and white sun, he stopped and reached out to touch him. She is a living person, and her traces have not been hidden by her touch.The young man just laughed, squinting at the panicked side, and walked back behind the pine tree without making a sound.Feeling dizzy for a while, he quickly covered his eyes and shouted: "Don't scare people! My father's disguise technique is much better than this." Hearing this, he stopped walking, smiled like a seductive mountain flower, and asked seriously: "Oh, your father knows the disguise technique?" Nodding sideways, as if trying to convince him, he said like a bean: "What's so strange about changing clothes? My father can change his face in the blink of an eye. You won't be able to do that!" The young man blushed slightly, thought for a while and said, "Sure enough not." So, on a whim, he decided to take him home to practice disguise with his father.Together with him, she got into the tall horse cart. The horse pulling the cart seemed to have a human nature, and moved forward without calling.Feeling amusing from the side, he pulled the reins to lead east and west, and even returned home with the car and people. All the way is like stepping on a dreamland, the flowers are empty, and the mulberry forest is beautiful.Many years later, Side Side no longer remembers how the two children drove a carriage through the winding and deep mountain roads, and if they were blessed by gods along the way, they were sent directly into the valley.Recalling the process of getting acquainted with him, he once asked sideways: "When you came to Chenxiang Valley, you came to learn the disguise technique from my father, right? You made me lure you home and fell into your trap." He just smiled and said nothing, his crescent-like crooked eyebrows and smiling eyes vaguely resembled the appearance of a boy back then.
