Great Blue Night Watchman

Feeling the cheers of the soul, Lin Su was also very happy.

Although he has practiced Xiao Zhou Tian's Thirty-six Steps to a very advanced level, he cannot use it easily because "Xiao Zhou Tian's Thirty-six Steps" was the only evidence of guilt plastered all over the capital that day. If the world knew that he was proficient in Xiao Zhou Tian's Three Steps, The associations generated by the sixteenth step are a bit too scary.

But now, Xiao Zhou Tian's thirty-six steps have been completely integrated into Zhou Tian's nine steps.

Although these two sets of footwork have the same origin, they are completely different. He uses Zhou Tian's nine steps, and others cannot think of Xiao Zhou Tian's thirty-six steps.

Lin Su deeply admires herself. I am so smart and cautious...

After admiring himself, he also recalled the bizarre incident last night, Yuan Ji...

Some things can be forgotten in the world.

But it is still difficult for some people, especially those who have had intimate relationships and the taste is unusual...

Lin Su fell down and landed on the bank of Dongting Lake. Taking a look at the Jianghu clothes on his body, Lin Su moved his feet and took nine steps to Zhoutian.

It was a little awkward at first. After all, it took a lot of adaptation to go from soul to practical application, but soon, he gradually adapted. The true energy flowed, the wind was blowing under his feet, and the wind was blowing dust, ten miles, twenty miles, thirty miles. …

The dust under his feet slowly disappeared, and in the end, he was calm and silent. He took nine steps in a row, his body shape changed in a thousand ways, and he stood at a bend in Dongting Lake. The fact that he does not startle the wind when he falls means that his Zhoutian Nine Steps has completed the entire process from spiritual martial arts training to real execution.

He raised his eyes. In front of him was a huge manor. With the scenery of lakes and mountains, and the setting sun, unusual colors bloomed on the banks of Dongting Lake.

At the main entrance of the villa, there are four big characters, like a phoenix returning north: Qiushui Villa!

Lin Su's heart skipped a beat, Zhongzhou, Qiushui Villa?

A home with autumn water painting screen?

It can't be such a coincidence, right? He really didn't expect her to come home. He came to Dongting Lake just to hide his itinerary a few days ago - when he left Beijing, he told Zhu Shiyun that he would visit the Dongting Lake privately incognito. In fact, he went to the southern border and participated in a A military operation worthy of being recorded in history. At this moment, the storm is about to rise, and he needs to come to Dongting Lake, reveal his true identity, and tell everyone that at these times, he is in Dongting Lake and has not gone anywhere.

I didn’t expect to arrive at her doorstep, so that’s fine!

I just don’t know if she has left home. Today is the end of the first lunar month. On the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, she accompanied her nephew Qiu Mochi to get engaged. Nearly ten days have passed. If she misses him, she should have returned to the Lin family by now. There was a quilt waiting for him in the attic.

Lin Su moved his feet and walked around the villa with nine steps. Suddenly he saw the nine-curved corridor extending from the villa to Dongting Lake. At the end of the corridor, a wooden building was erected on the lake. Although it was far away, But Lin Su's thousand-degree eyes still brought the wooden building several miles away to his eyes. In the wooden building, a peerless beauty was sitting by the curtain, holding a paintbrush and painting.

Huaping girl, this is not good for you...

If you have returned to the Lin family, I would be a little disappointed.

But if you don’t go back to the Lin family, I will be even more disappointed, you know?

You live in such an elegant building and you don’t even think about me anymore. I’m here to turn your embroidered building into nothing...

He turned his eyes and saw that there were many small boats on the Dongting Lake. The hulls of the boats were very low, but the bows were raised very high. The boats had triangular roofs. Such boats were prepared for noble officials and romantic talents. In Dongting Shuttles in the lake are like swallows flying between the waves, which is very beautiful.

Upstairs on the Moon Lake, half of the painting on the Qiu Shui Painting Screen has been painted. She did not use the power of painting on this painting, but only used the most ordinary brushstrokes. But even with the original brushstrokes, she still could not regain her original feeling. Feel.

The lake is the lake of the past, the building is the building of the past, and even the girl serving beside her is still the same as before. However, after all, things have changed, people have changed, and her mood has changed. Even if the lake and mountains remain the same, she is no longer the same. The boy back then...

She can't get used to it at home!

A Spring Festival, which only lasts for a month, feels extremely long to her!

She has asked herself countless times, Qiushui Huaping, you have been here like this for the past thirty years, why can't you stay now?

There is only one answer: she misses him!

It's not like her home without him!

His foreign land was actually her home!

Little bad guy! You're a pest, you killed me...

The maid next to her said softly: "Miss, it's dark, do you want to hold a lamp?"

"No need, it's still early..."

"Miss, I heard that... Madam's birthday is tomorrow, and someone will be coming over there."

"Which way?" Qiushui Huaping raised his head.

"Paint the Holy Family over there!"

Qiushui Huaping's face darkened slightly: "I don't care! I'll leave after my mother's birthday tomorrow!"

The maid sighed softly: "Miss, you...are you really not planning to get married? Even for the rest of your life? Even if you really have a sweetheart?"

Most people cannot bring up the topic of marriage. In the past few years, even Madam didn’t dare to mention it. Because she mentioned it, the young lady ran to Qiankun Academy and did not come back for several years. However, this year’s situation is a bit special. Some time ago, Madam tried After mentioning it, the young lady did not overreact, which gave the madam an excellent signal, so she entrusted the maid to do the work in depth.

The maid's name was Hua Xin, which was the name given to her by Qiu Shui Huaping. The two had been together since they were children. They were like sisters and talked about each other without words.

Qiushui Huaping's eyes slowly turned around: "Xin'er, do you want to get married? If you have a sweetheart, I will get you married!"

Hua Xin blushed: "Miss, what are you talking about? I am your personal maid, and I will naturally serve you all my life. If you get married, I will go with you. If you really never get married, I will accompany you." As you grow older..."

Suddenly, a voice came from below: "Hi, little girl, do you want to go swimming in the lake together?"

Hua Xin's face suddenly darkened, and she stood up suddenly: "You are so bold to be a disciple, why don't you get out of here, do you know where this place is?"

A finger pointed directly at a small boat below. On the small boat, a young Jianghu man held a bamboo pole with his hands, and a "swallow boat" was fixed in the lake at his feet...

"I know!" The young man below smiled softly: "That's why I sincerely extend an invitation to Miss. Miss, are you willing?"

He raised his eyes and looked upstairs...

The willow eyebrows in the heart of the painting stand upright, and the anger is blazing!

But suddenly, the autumn water painting screen appeared next to her. Looking from the side, why was the lady's face so red?

"Come down, I'll take you to the lake!" Lin Su waved gently.

What bullshit? How could my young lady go swimming in the lake with you? Hua Xin picked up a teacup and was debating whether to smash it or not. If it was a teacup from the past, she wouldn't hesitate and smash it directly. But this teacup is white porcelain from the Lin family, which is a bit expensive...

Suddenly, the lady next to me jumped off and landed on the bow of the boat.

Hua Xin's eyes suddenly widened, what's going on?

Qiushui Huaping turned back: "Xin'er, I...I'm going to swim in the lake, don't tell others..."

The boat galloped towards Dongting Lake and disappeared into the night. Hua Xin stared blankly at the smoke waves below, confused...

God, how many talented men and women tried their best but could not get even half a step closer to Yuehu Tower. But tonight, a man from the rivers and lakes held a swallow boat and waved, and the lady ran away with him...

The swallow boat slipped into the night like a swallow, leaving only misty waves of smoke around, and Qiushui Villa was no longer visible.

Only then did Qiushui Huaping look away from the distance and fell on Lin Su's face: "Why are you here?"

"I miss you!"

Lin Su opened his hands and held her in his arms. Qiushui Huaping raised her face in his arms. The red glow on her face was so moving under the starlight.

Lin Su lowered his lips and kissed her on the lips.

Qiushui Huaping slowly closed his eyes, and the boat under his feet was spinning silently...

For a long, long time...

The two finally separated, Qiu Shui Huaping was held by him and sat on the bow of the boat: "Are you really here specifically to see me?"

"It's...one of the reasons!"

"I knew you didn't come to see me specifically!" Qiu Shui's eyes flashed across the screen: "You're here to become the magistrate of Zhongzhou again, right?"

"That's not true!"

"That belongs to Si Zheng and Lei Zheng, who runs the Supervision Department?" Qiu Shui Hua Ping pointed to the east of the lake: "Seventy miles from here, you will reach the Lei family on the shore."

Lin Su raised his eyebrows and said, "Why are you all like this? In your eyes, I just specialize in handling people?"

Qiu Shui Hua Ping giggles...

Don't blame others for thinking this way. Think about it yourself, is this the case? Wherever you go, are you not doing business? Mo Chi said that just after the tenth day of October, you made a big fuss in the Golden Palace, and even His Majesty the Emperor was killed by you...

Lin Sumao is angry!

Someone who specializes in handling people, right? OK, I admit it! I came here today just to deal with you!

Undress! manage!

Qiushui Huaping used his hands and feet to push him to the bow of the boat, bit him, and said to him fiercely, "Where is this place?" In broad daylight...no! It’s always out in the open air without the sun! You shameless bastard, stop thinking wrongly, do you think I am in green? I'll mess around with you anywhere...

Lin Su failed to accomplish the deviant thing, so he could only hold her close to him, kiss her gently, and talk to her about business...

I came to Dongting Lake this time to sound the alarm to Lei Zheng and Zhu Shiyun, lest these two old guys spend all day thinking about my experience. I have to let them understand that there are risks in blindly standing up for the team. Next time, they will trick me. Before, they had to weigh and weigh...

He spoke in an understatement, but Qiu Shui Huaping's heart was shrinking quietly, and he sighed softly: "Lei Zheng and Zhu Shiyun are actually plotting against you...how many opponents do you have?"

"Where are your opponents? They are all over the court! But don't worry, I have told your fortune. There is a high probability that you will not become a widow..."

Qiushui Huaping glanced at him charmingly: "It's not just Man Chao, right? You seem to have many opponents in the world of martial arts and the Holy Family."

"Indeed, there are many! But I also have many friends!"

"Yes, hundreds of thousands of refugees on the riverbank are your friends. If someone goes against you, they can pick up a hoe and fight to the death..."

She said it easily, but her heart was really sad.

His opponents are all over the court, in the Jianghu, and the Holy Family. Every force is an earth-shattering behemoth, but where are his friends? But they are just villagers with hoes, oh, and there are also a few great scholars who can't survive in the officialdom, such as Ren Taiyan...

Lin Su looked at the stars in the sky and sighed softly: "I suddenly understood some people. Their power or skills are amazing in the world, but in the end they float away in a small boat. The smoke waves are thousands of miles away, and the boat is just a leaf. , it makes people have nothing else in mind, only the remaining feelings of the mountains and rivers, it is really relaxing."

"Drink some wine. After you finish drinking, you can take a nap. I think you're a little tired!"

"good!"

Bai Yunbian opened it, Lin Su drank half of the jar, and Qiushui Huaping drank three glasses with him.

Strong wine accompanied by starlight, and beautiful women with bright eyes that flickered like stars. There were no other people around, no court, no calculations, only the vast lake. Lin Sunan's tension for five days and five nights slowly relaxed. He lay on the lap of the autumn water painting screen and closed his eyes. After closing her eyes, Qiushui Huaping gently stroked his hair and looked at his infinitely handsome face under the starlight.

Time passes minute by minute...

One hour, two hours, three hours, four hours, the boat arrived at the center of the lake at some point...

In the center of the lake, there is a sandbar. On the sandbar, weeping willows have sprouted buds, and they are silvery white under the watery starlight.

Qiushui Huaping looked at the sandbank, picked up the brush, and painted under the starlight...

Lin Su's voice came: "Where is this?"

Here is the center of Dongting Lake.

When sailing in Dongting, there are many hidden reefs. Only boatmen who are proficient in water patterns can find the correct route. This sand island, protruding from the water, has become an obvious landmark for sailing in Dongting. Therefore, Dongting people affectionately call it "Zhoujun" .

"Did you just draw this?"

Yes!

The painting "Autumn Water Painting Screen" is extremely magical...

A few strokes outline a lake of spring water...

On the spring water, a small boat...

The sandbank emerges from the water, and the silver stars naturally fall...

Suddenly, the lake in the painting moved, the boat moved, and the weeping willows on the sandbank began to sway gently...

Lin Su looked at the real world around him.

His eyes turned to the painting. The world in the painting seemed to be a projection of the real world.

For a moment, he couldn't tell which was reality and which was illusion...

"Tonight, I feel extremely peaceful. This painting is better than the moonlight over the lotus pond!" Qiushui Huaping said.

"Have you ever thought that if you start a painting world in the future, you can use this painting as the basis?" Lin Su said.

Qiushui Huaping's eyes lit up, as bright as stars.

Painting is her next step.

She faced the Red Fox Demon Emperor that day. Using jade bones as a pen and whole body blood as ink, she drew the most frequently painted and touching moonlight picture of a lotus pond, touching the outline of the painting world for the first time.

For more than a month, what she thought about most was the moonlight picture of the lotus pond.

But she always felt that the moonlight picture on the lotus pond was three points more gorgeous and seven points less artistic. But tonight's picture of the starry night in the Dongting was extremely spacious and infinite in artistic conception, and she was particularly satisfied.

At this moment, Lin Su reminded her, and she suddenly realized that this painting was more suitable for opening up the painting world.

Of course, she has only scratched the surface of the painting world, and is still far from truly opening up the world of painting, but her path is clear.

Boundless spring water is her state of mind.

A lonely boat is her thirty years of wandering.

Zhoujun's weeping willow is unpredictable.

Once such a painting world is formed, it will no longer be an ordinary painting world...

That night, they did not return to Yuehu Tower.

A lonely boat, full of spring water on the lake, and a vast starry sky.
