Every time I wake up, I take the blame for the villain
52. White Cloud and Solitary Leaf (Part 3)
The days have been very peaceful recently. Without the pressure from the court, this city on the sea has become clean again. Everything seems to be the same as before. If we really want to tell a difference, it would probably be that the Lord of Baiyun City, who is a flying fairy from the sky, has the title of the best swordsman in the world before his name.
Naturally, no matter how powerful and prosperous the people at the top are, the common people below still only live a life of fishing at sunrise and resting at sunset.
They are also working hard for life and working hard for survival. Although they are not as ups and downs as some people in the world, who can say that such peace is not what people ultimately pursue?
No matter what kind of person, even a person like Lu Xiaofeng, even if he likes excitement and novelty, he will never fail to recognize the importance of a peaceful life to people. After he finished dealing with a dangerous and exciting thing in the martial arts world, he would often choose to go to a restaurant and relax for a while.
Even if it is a piano, it cannot be kept taut all the time, because the strings that are taut will eventually break.
If the string is broken, the piano will no longer make sound.
So do people.
After such a calm sea breeze sent away Lu Xiaofeng and others, it brought in a strange girl.
Neighbors all know that Lao Wang picked up a little girl from the bottom of the sea a few days ago. The little girl is very cute. Although she has not spoken, everyone thinks she is mute. It doesn't matter that she is mute, because she can make delicious beef soup. Of course, people who can make beef soup can also make fish soup, and they do it very well.
Just this one hand is enough to be extremely welcomed by the neighbors.
People always express their love for cute girls, not to mention that this little girl is good at cooking.
City Lord Ye never restricts the wishes of those under him, so even if there is a little girl brought by the sea suddenly outside Baiyun City on Feixian Island, it will have no impact on him at all.
The old Wang who adopted her was his ancestor who moved here. He had lived here for decades and knew this, so he dared to adopt the orphan.
Many martial arts people do not allow strangers to appear in their territory. Because they are afraid of death. Afraid of being beaten to death by the Avengers who don't know where they are coming from.
Jianghu people will always have many enemies. No matter whether this charlatan is a good guy or a bad guy.
But Ye Gucheng was never afraid. Because there are not many people in this world who can kill him, let alone on Feixian Island.
As for Jiang Chen, he can die, and has died many times, but there are not many enemies who can live long enough to see him die, so he doesn't mind this rule.
Everyone inside and outside Baiyun City knows that the city lord has recently developed a habit of standing on the cliff outside the city, holding his sword, for a whole day.
Everyone felt that with the city lord's love for swords, he was probably learning about martial arts and creating new sword techniques. They would consciously move out of the way so as not to disturb him.
But for people, this distance cannot be called distance, especially for those who are thoughtful.
When he slowly returned to the city, passers-by in the city would respectfully give way.
Jiang Chen didn't have the habit of sitting in a sedan chair, and neither did Ye Gucheng.
He only has the habit of always staying in the courtyard to practice swordsmanship.
...There is a kind of person, even if he stands quietly and becomes a wooden figure, no one will ever ignore him. Whether it is hatred, envy or liking, he will never be easily ignored. Standing out from the crowd is probably what it feels like.
Lu Xiaofeng is this kind of person because he has four eyebrows.
Jiang Chen is this kind of person, because he always behaves very calmly.
Even though the silks and satins on the road were colorful and he was simply dressed in white, he still couldn't help but attract attention when he came here like this.
Ordinary people always only see his neat appearance in white clothes, but only people of the same kind can feel the aura of the same kind.
At least Xiao Shi, the new daughter of Lao Wang's family, felt that her old man was right in asking her to come here. She smiled and asked Lao Wang, "Grandpa, who is this person?"
This smiling face looks innocent and cute, just a momentary curiosity when seeing an impressive person passing by.
Lao Wang lowered his head to look at his granddaughter, then looked at his indifferent back as he passed by and took a few steps away, and sighed, "He..."
In fact, Lao Wang still remembers the appearance of the city lord when he was young. In the blink of an eye, he has become such an outstanding swordsman in the world. Time flies like water. More than 20 years ago, he is old, and the old city lord and his wife have also been gone for 20 years. He was still lost in nostalgia when he heard a curious sentence in his ear, "He is that Ye..." The little girl paused and abruptly changed to the honorific title given to him by the people of Baiyun City, "City Lord Ye?"
Old Wang came back to his senses and touched her head, "Yes... Lord Ye City." Each generation of city lords is called Lord Ye City. They respect the city lord and don't even want to call him by his first name. I just know how to respectfully call you City Lord Ye.
Maybe the people in the Central Plains would still call him the Lord of Baiyun City of Feixian Island, but for the people on the island, to be precise, for the vast majority of people, the surname of Feixian Island is Ye, so the only city owner is Ye City Lord.
Xiao Shi is so well-behaved that it makes people feel heartbroken, but when she lowers her head, there is a dark light flashing in her eyes. Why? Probably because Xiao Shi doesn't like others touching her head. Not even her old man can do it, but now she has to endure it
But when she raised her face, she still smiled brightly, making people defenseless. But she controlled her voice and asked quietly, "Grandpa, where is the city lord?"
"This..." Lao Wang hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't bear to deceive the child, "Recently, the city lord likes to go to the sea cliff east of Feixian Island. Everyone says that the city lord is practicing sword again..."
"He is still practicing sword?" The emphasized word "still" clearly expressed her surprise. Xiao Shi certainly couldn't think of it, because everyone in the world said that Ye Gucheng was already the best swordsman in the world, why did he still practice sword?
But she thought again and felt that this was nothing, because she loved to cook beef soup, and she still loved to cook it even if it was cooked well.
She looked up at him.
Then, she was stunned.
Unable to imagine what Xiao Shi felt at the moment, she suddenly shuddered hard and buried her head in Lao Wang's arms.
Lao Wang was stunned and looked around. Except for the city lord looking back, he didn't find anything unusual. Seeing her like this, he still stretched out his hand to protect her, "What's wrong? Shi'er, don't be afraid, don't be afraid!"
Xiao Shi didn't speak, her cold sweat had wet her clothes.
She has always been a lawless person, but today, facing this person, she suddenly felt that she was no longer lawless. At that moment, she felt like she had walked back and forth from hell. This was a suffocating feeling that she had never experienced even though she had killed many people.
This look was even more terrifying than her ninth brother. Even more terrifying than the old man.
In just a moment, it seemed that he saw through you inside and out, even the bones. But you can tell that there was no fluctuation in his eyes. He was looking at you, but you couldn't find any trace of you in his eyes.
It was just a faint glance, as if he just couldn't walk anymore and turned around casually to look around, and then he went back to his original path.
A numb and cold feeling rose from the soles of her feet.
Can such a person really listen to them obediently?
However, Xiao Shi couldn't retreat. Both her old man and her ninth brother were very interested in this person. She had to get him back anyway.
The world's number one swordsman.
What a fascinating title.
Xiao Shi certainly knew it. Xiao Shi certainly wasn't just a 13 or 14-year-old girl, she could also judge people.
For someone like this who never looked down on anyone, looking down on someone would definitely surprise everyone. Because the more indifferent a person is, the softer their heart is.
Xiao Shi immediately had an idea. She planned to be such a woman, a woman that Ye Gucheng was willing to live and die for her.
Whether Ye Gucheng would be soft-hearted was unknown.
But it was obvious that Jiang Chen was not a soft-hearted person.
At least, he would never be soft-hearted to a self-righteous enemy.
He went to the cliff as usual.
The aroma of beef came from the cliff, which was usually deserted.
Jiang Chen frowned slightly, but did not turn back. There were not many people in the world that he could avoid, and there were not many people he was willing to avoid.
He walked up.
The girl, who was about 13 or 14 years old, was burning a sand pot. She was only wearing a coarse cloth, but it couldn't hide her cuteness, and there was a strange charm that didn't match her age.
If Lu Xiaofeng was here, he would probably be fascinated again.
She was cooking beef soup.
Right by the sea cliff.
The fragrance was everywhere.
But Xiao Shi saw that this person looked at her, and then withdrew his gaze as if he had seen nothing. He didn't stop for a moment, walked to the edge of the sea cliff, didn't speak, and didn't express any indignation or annoyance about being occupied.
He just passed by her, which was exactly the state a stranger should have when passing by.
Xiao Shi, who was cooking beef soup behind her, had a pale face. Didn't this person remember her?
At this time, she didn't know whether it was better for him to remember her or not. Because that day, she felt that she had been seen through by this person. If she remembered, she was a little scared, but if she didn't remember, she was very angry. A girl like her, wherever she goes, there are a lot of people holding her!
He stopped and stood there, his eyes fell on the endless sea.
Xiao Shi fanned the fan vigorously, making a rustling sound, and the fire under the stove became more prosperous.
The other party did not respond.
What does this mean? Not even a word? How can she talk to him?
However, she has always been considered a "cute and lovely" girl on the island, no matter which island, and she quickly raised her smile, "Would you like to try beef soup?"
He still stood there motionless, as if he didn't hear her question.
Xiao Shi didn't believe that he was deaf. If the mountain doesn't come to me, I will come to the mountain. She gritted her teeth secretly, picked up the soup, and took two steps towards him. Suddenly, her feet were unstable, and she screamed and rushed towards him.
Before she could see his movements clearly, the white clothes had disappeared in front of her.
Facing a piece of rubble on the ground, Xiao Shi gritted her teeth secretly, slightly twisted her body with the force, and immediately avoided her face facing the gravel, and fell to the ground sideways. A bowl of boiling beef soup had been wisely thrown away by her. In order to pretend, she didn't use her internal force to protect her body. She was hit hard and gasped.
Half of her body was already hanging in the air. If it was an ordinary girl, she might have fallen down...
It is said in the Central Plains that Ye Gucheng is cold, lonely, cold-blooded and ruthless, and it is indeed true.
Such a lovely girl fell in front of him, and he didn't react!
Gentleman's demeanor! Gentleman's demeanor! Her moody ninth brother always hangs on his demeanor, doesn't this man have the demeanor of a city lord!
She waited for a while, but no one came to help her. She had to sit up reluctantly, looking at the scratches on her arms and ankles and sighing.
Still no movement.
Xiao Shi couldn't help it, and finally raised his head.
Ye Gucheng stood at a safe distance.
His expression was still so pale that no one could see clearly. He was just staring at her like this. It was obviously the same indifferent look as in the past few days, but it gave people a completely different feeling. Xiao Shi blushed inexplicably.
Then he heard a sentence, "Tomorrow..."
"I hope it's still clean here."
Xiao Shi looked at the broken beef soup and red sand bowl on the side, and gritted his teeth.
The author has something to say: Emmmm... Little angels, please don't wait recently...
The school is full of classes, so I can only update at night...
In addition, really, there is no CP in this article. The male protagonist may protect some people, but there are certain reasons.
Because of his mentality, he will not choose to be moved by anyone...
The person who appeared is not really in love with Ye Gucheng
