Chapter 40 Chapter Nine: Clouds come out of the pen, covering the phantom of the body

The bleary sleepy eyes have not yet adapted to the twilight morning light; the word "sunshine" is occupying the entire vision of the young man. "Fengshen?" Xingyan rubbed his eyes, looked around again, and finally confirmed that he was not dreaming. "Is that the name of the sword?" "Fengshen... what a big tone!" Chewing these two words several times in his heart, recalling the bizarre dream he had just now, Xingyan couldn't help but think: "Is this sword spirit making fun of me again?" "Fengshen, maybe it's just the name of the swordsmith back then? Well, this senior's surname is Feng, and his single name has the word 'God'."

Thinking of this indiscriminately, my heart moved: "I have the name of this sword, but I wonder if this sword spirit has a name? If not, then I'm not going to be polite. It's just that I have nothing to do, so I came to help her get one randomly!" Just thinking of this, before he could respond to the sword spirit, he found that the two big seals on the sword in front of him were gradually distorting their shapes.When he rubbed his eyes two or three times and looked again, he found that the original "Fengshen" on the sword had now changed into two other words. The strokes of these two characters are distorted. Although they are self-contained and simple and natural, they are hard to recognize.After searching and identifying for a long time, I found out that these two characters are: "Yaoguang".

"Yaoguang, this should be the name of the sword spirit?" "Yaoguang, Yaoguang...the word seems quite familiar, but I can't remember what it is at the moment." "Ha! This sword can write, which is interesting!" Thinking of this verse, Xingyan suddenly remembered something, and silently wished the ancient sword "Fengshen" in front of him in his heart: "Excalibur, how about the inscription on this sword be written as 'Xingyan Sword'?" Before he finished praying, he saw the divine sword trembling slightly, making a buzzing sound, which seemed to be a coquettish sound; when he hurried to sense it again, there was no sound.

"Actually, I was just joking, heh~" Seeing that Jianling Yaoguang no longer paid attention to him, Xingyan had no choice but to mock himself with a smirk. "Brother, good morning! Are you up yet?" The greeting is so polite and warm, it must be the lovely sister Qiongxi.Looking back, it was Qiongxi Juying and the others who were fully dressed and were going to wash up by the cold spring. Running to Xiuyun Pavilion, Xiao Qiongxun wrinkled her nose and said: "Last night, I wanted to sleep with my brother, but sister Ju Ying said that I was small, and I would fall off the cliff when I fell asleep at night. But sister Ju Ying was just right, but she didn't want to sleep with my brother! "

The little girl looked regretful and puzzled. This kind of childish speech is not taboo, that Juying girl who is by the cold spring, I don't know if she heard it clearly.However, the cloth towel in her hand suddenly slipped to the ground somehow. And the young man who has always been indifferent to such childish talk as a little girl suddenly blushed unconsciously after hearing this!It took a while for this abnormal look to fade away. Fortunately, the morning glow in the eastern sky is now reflecting his cheeks red, and it is not in danger for people to see clearly the embarrassment on his face for a while.But now Juying took a lot longer than usual to wash her face; when she came to the Xiuyun Pavilion slowly, Xingyan's expression had already returned to normal.

"Ju Ying, you came just in time," When Juying came to the pavilion, Xingyan asked her: "You read a lot, help me find out what these two words mean." Saying so, Xingyan handed the Fengshen Sword to Ju Ying. Ju Ying held the sword and looked at it for a long while, thought for a while, and then told the meaning of the inscription to the young man in front of him: "Yao Guang, the first star of the Big Dipper." "Oh! That's it. Ju Ying is really knowledgeable and knowledgeable!" After waking up and hearing the words, it suddenly dawned on me that I couldn't help admiring.

Hearing his admiration, Ju Ying was a little blushed; the little girl Qiongxu had a look of admiration, and she was looking forward to: "Sister Juying reads a lot of books, and she can always be praised by her brother. If Qiongxu one day, she will also be praised." It would be great if I could read as many books and write as many words as she did..." Reminiscing about her hand-crawling handwriting, the little girl's face is sad.At this moment, the young man said in shock: "The first star of the Big Dipper?!" "It turns out that the dream last night was not completely absurd."

At that moment, Xingyan told Ju Ying and the others about the strange dream in Xiuyun Pavilion.Although the things in the dream have always been remembered in general, but the accidental streamer flew up, turned into the seventh star of the Big Dipper, and fought with the six stars of Tiangang, but I still remember it clearly. "Could it be that this sword personally experienced this matter? Or is there any metaphor?" Xingyan discussed it with Ju Ying and others in detail, but they couldn't find a correct answer.Finally, Hall Master Four Seas made up his mind: "Wait someday I will go down the mountain to patrol the fields, go to Chuanluo Street, find a star stall, and let him help me interpret this strange dream!"

So, Ju Ying and Xue Yi both left, and went to arrange their clothes and make-up.Only Qiongxu was still standing beside the young man, raised his face and said, "Brother, do you often have strange dreams?" "It's not often~ It's just more recently; maybe a little sleepy and dreamy. I don't know if it has something to do with going to Huoyun Mountain to suppress bandits a few days ago." "Hmm! Qiongxu has often had strange dreams recently!" "Oh? What dream?" "I dreamed of mountains that spewed fire, and rivers that couldn't fall to the bottom!"

"anything else?" "That's all! I dream about a lot of things every time, but I only remember these two when I wake up!" The little girl had a disgruntled look on her face. "Really? Heh~ In fact, it's not unusual to dream like this. This flaming mountain should be the Huoyun Mountain that I went to last time; the river that can't fall to the bottom... Ha! Did you see that bad guy fall off last time?" Did you have this dream when you went down the mountain?" At this time, he didn't want to find any dream interpretation stalls, so he tried his best to help the little girl interpret her dreams.

Indeed, compared to Qiong Xin's many strange thoughts, the strange dream she just mentioned does not seem strange.Originally, Xingyan was planning to hear even more bizarre things. Now, I don't know why the young man talked nonsense, but the little girl was amused and giggled.Then, like a bird looking for food, he jumped to the cold spring and let sister Xueyi wash his face.Afterwards, the young man also walked to the rock spring, picked up the cold spring water to wash his face, teeth, and then sat upright in the Xiuyun Pavilion, letting Kou Xueyi comb his hair into a bun and put on the Taoist scarf. While Xue Yi was combing her hair, the youth hall insisted on waking up, just caught a glimpse of the Fengshen sword leaning on the railing next to it, and couldn't help thinking: "Well, there is no illiterate person in my Four Seas hall. !" The morning of Qiandiaoya, which was slightly different from the past, ended in such a boring thought.The day that started after that was not very different from the previous ones. After another four or five days like this, in the afternoon, Xingyan studied the Dharma book of "Flying Moon and Flowing Light Slash" in the Xiuyun Pavilion, studied it for a while, and seemed to have gained a little, so he put down the volume, stood up and read it for a while. Shu Shu waist, rest.He looked at the floating clouds in the distant mountains for a while, and then stared blankly at the never-ending waterfall on the opposite mountain.The faintly recognizable sound of the gurgling of the flowing spring is coming intermittently together with the hissing of the cicadas in the verdant green forest. The flowing green green hills, the gentle breeze, and the melodious sound of the spring are making the summer in the mountains extra pleasant and cool. While enjoying the gift of nature, it seems a little too quiet when he wakes up and suddenly feels around.After a little thought, you will know why.Walking lightly to a stone side room, looking in through the edged window—— ah!As expected, Qiongxue Xueyi, who was supposed to be studying and practicing calligraphy, has already fallen asleep quietly at the desk. Xueyi, who is resting peacefully, still maintains a cool and graceful appearance; Qiongxi, who is lying on the side of the table, has her head and face resting on her arms, her small mouth is slightly open, her mouth and nose are parted, and there is faint water around the corner of her mouth. There is a trace, just like the pink lotus hanging down.Obviously, this little girl is Wumeng Xiangtian. And under the jade arms of these two people, there are still a few pieces of writing paper, and there are still ink marks on it. "The two sisters are not afraid of staining their arms with ink." Thinking this way in his heart, the young man raised his legs and stepped into the house, wanting to take out the writing papers that were lying on their pillows for them. After entering the house, he discovered that there were also a few pieces of paper floating here and there on the ground; presumably, the breeze coming in through the window blows them off. He casually picked them up, and was about to put them back on the case; after thinking about them, he held them up in front of his eyes, and wanted to browse them, which could be regarded as checking their homework. However, just looking at it by the way, it surprised Xingyan! It turned out that before he went out to read the scriptures in the pavilion, he had taught them to copy a simple passage in the "Southern China Classic: A Happy Journey": Wait! Therefore, it is said: All people have no self, gods and men have no merit, and saints have no name..." It stands to reason that the bamboo paper he held up to look at now should be written like a spring worm and autumn snake; but now, what is displayed in front of him is full of agile and elegant! "This character is written clearly and beautifully, condensed and easy, and it seems to have the meaning of Lingyun!" "Is it the font of 'Feibai'? But it doesn't look like it; even Feibai is not so elegant..." Surprised, but suspicious: "These two girls will never be able to write such good characters. Could it be that Ju Ying wrote it before going out today? That's not true. Ju Ying's handwriting is elegant and beautiful, and it is very different from this. Besides, The ink on this paper is obviously not dry yet." Looking at other writing papers, he was even more surprised: The life passages that he didn't teach later in "Xiaoyaoyou" are now written in large sections with the same elegant and beautiful fonts. "Strange! I don't know who wrote it. Could it be that some Ascot came to visit secretly, left the calligraphy but left without saying goodbye?" I was really curious, so I couldn't help but wake up these two lazy female students. However, the results of the inquiry and test surprised Xingyan.It turned out that this paper full of fairy and extraordinary characters was actually written by the young girl Qiongxi, who was a young student in the Four Seas Hall! It's a pity that, faced with repeated questioning by the young man who had found a treasure, the little girl just insisted that she didn't know what was going on, and she was dazed and yawning before going to bed, when she suddenly felt that she could write these words Now, I can write more beautifully than before-I thought I was dreaming at first! "It's not just about looking better." Listening to Qiongxu's narration, Xingyan murmured in his heart, "It seems that this little girl really has a lot of unexpected magic. I don't know if Qiongxu really grew up among the wild bamboos in Luoyang Mountain; Why did you suddenly write better than me?!" Suspicious in my heart, I couldn't help cross-examining again.It's a pity that this little girl has never been able to explain her own background clearly; now she suddenly finds that she can also write beautiful characters, and she is very excited to know new characters that she has never known before; The answer is even more unclear. Therefore, after asking three or five sentences, Xingyan gave up the cross-examination, and only had time to answer repeatedly: "Yes, sister, your word is really good!" This answer was said repeatedly, some thirteen or four times before and after. That Kou Xueyi watched from the side, not only happy for the little girl, but also very envious in her heart; she has secretly made a wish, even if she is a bit stupid and slow to learn, as long as she works hard and perseveres, she believes that one day she will be able to write beautiful words. Words, understand the profound scriptures, and then... can also be praised by the hall master! Leaving aside the fact that the little girl was excited and jumping there, I didn't mention it; when Ju Ying came back from Yu Xiufeng's practice in the evening, Xiao Qiongxu, like offering a treasure, dragged her to let her watch her writing.In the end, it was the little girl who came to her with a sad face and woke her up, saying that her brother was wronged: Just now when I was about to show my calligraphy to sister Ju Ying, I found that my handwriting had returned to the old crab crawling appearance! So, she wanted to ask her brother to be a witness, to prove to sister Ju Ying that those beautiful words were indeed written by her. Later, I found out that Xiao Qiongxun's strange ability to read and write is actually not effective at all times, and even Xingyan can't figure out the reason. The days are spent interleaved in such tranquility and laughter.Before I knew it, more than ten days passed, it was early August, and it was the mid-autumn season of the year. In a few days, it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival in August. This morning, after laughing and laughing with Xiao Qiongxun, when he was about to start practicing spells, Xingyan suddenly heard a "呖呖呖" sound.Turning his head to look, he saw two wisps of green smoke curling up in the beaks of the pair of stone cranes by the door. Shihe reported the letter, presumably Feiyunding had called for something.
