That Person In That River and Lake

  Chapter 72 The difference between a knife and a sword, the distance between life and death

From the vast snowfield to the foot of Qiling Station, the boundless white snow covered the ground thickly, and the other scenery that can be seen by the eyes is only some trees inside the city wall of Qiling Station, with some green occasionally showing through. The snow on the branches melted into water, and then condensed into water droplets flowing down the branches, and quickly turned into ice in the cold wind.

Qin Keqing followed Gu Qingci without saying a word, standing in the snow like a crystal clear snow lotus flower, and also like a peach blossom that is about to drip, but it just melts in the snow, but it complements each other .

Gu Qingci turned his head slowly, the distance between the two was less than ten feet, he was wearing a white robe, behind him was a Taoist nun in a white Taoist robe, the Taoist nun was plain and colorless, and happened to see him, their eyes crossed for a moment , Taoist nun walked over slowly.

   "Flying knife, is it really not your flying knife?" Qin Keqing asked.

   Gu Qingci shook his head and said, "It's really not mine."

Gu Qingci quietly looked at the woman who looked like a peach blossom on a branch gently swaying in the wind in spring, a look of helplessness appeared between her handsome brows, since she woke up half an hour ago, Qin Keqing seemed to have raised a question .

He didn't know how to explain it. He couldn't tell anyone about the existence of the system. It didn't matter whether he believed it or not, but because of his small mind, he couldn't tell anyone. He didn't explain too much, just said, flying knife Not his.

  Qin Keqing looked at Gu Qingci, and said lightly: "I understand."

   Then, for a long time, Qin Keqing just stood quietly in the snow like a wooden stake, stopped talking, his eyes were empty, and his eyes were out of focus, as if he was thinking about something, which stunned Gu Qingci who was thinking of an excuse!

  Gu Qingci said: "You..."

  Qin Keqing raised her head slowly, and said softly, "Do you have anything to say?"

"I go…"

   Gu Qingci looked surprised and said: "Aren't you asking me? Don't you have anything else to ask?"

Gu Qingci looked blankly at the Taoist nun who always took it for granted in front of her, and she was almost cursing her mother, you are not very interested, then you should have said it earlier, it made me think of such an excuse for a long time, and why did I stand still? Shivering in this cold wind, don't you know that I have no internal energy at all?

Qin Keqing naturally didn't know what Gu Qingci was thinking, shook her head, walked forward lightly, passed by Gu Qingci, and said in a crisp voice: "I have never been very interested, the reason why I asked twice is just Just want to make sure you haven't switched to flying knives."

   "What do you mean?" Gu Qingci turned around, caught up with Qin Keqing, walked side by side with Qin Keqing, and asked, "Miss Qin, what's wrong with me changing the flying knife?"

Qin Keqing, who was walking, suddenly stopped, and looked at Gu Qingci blankly. The cold wind suddenly blew up, lifted her hair, and the white Taoist robe suddenly fluttered slightly. It happened that a drop of water was about to fall on her head, but it happened At that moment, it became cold into ice drops, crystal clear, refracting the light from the sky, and reflected on Qin Keqing's face, as if it was so beautiful that it should not exist in the world.

However, Gu Qingci's heart suddenly tightened, feeling that the surrounding air suddenly dropped, and there seemed to be invisible murderous intentions all around him. As long as he moved a little, he would be ruthlessly wiped out by these murderous intentions. He lowered his head and looked at Qin Keqing, suddenly Mingwu, this murderous intent seems to be sent by Qin Keqing.

   "Qin...Qin...girl," Gu Qingci swallowed and stammered, "You...what are you doing, you don't want to kill me, do you?"

Qin Keqing suddenly pouted her brows, feeling uncomfortable for a while. When she heard Gu Qingci's words, she felt a little irritable for no reason. know why.

She suppressed her uneasiness, and said: "You can't modify the flying knife, you have to practice swords, otherwise, how can you fight me, if your swordsmanship is mixed, you are not qualified to fight me, so, you can't Practicing flying knives..."

When Qin Keqing said this, her right hand hanging outside the white Taoist robe suddenly trembled involuntarily, and the ice droplets that were freezing on the branches were melted by an aura, and she tightly held the Wugou Sword at her waist , continues:

   "If you practice flying knives, I will kill you for my... sword!"

Between heaven and earth, there was a violent shock in the air, and a white shadow flashed across the snow. At the same time, the nun in front of Gu Qingci disappeared. As soon as she left, the crystal clear ice drops on the branches It turned into water in an instant, falling to the ground like a rainstorm.

Looking at the white figure that appeared more than a dozen battles away, Gu Qingci suddenly felt uncomfortable, frowned, and then muttered: "What a lunatic, but fortunately I didn't admit that I was flying for the sake of pretense. The knife belongs to me, otherwise I would have died unjustly."

   It's just that what puzzles Gu Qingci is that no matter how he looks at Qin Keqing's current back, he seems to be running away in a hurry!

   "My lord, my lord...Master Gu..."

   At this moment, Gu Qingci suddenly heard someone calling him from behind, and turned his head hastily, just in time to see Uncle Yan running over in a hurry, and asked, "Uncle Yan, what can you do with me?"

Yan Bo chuckled, glanced in the direction where Qin Keqing was leaving, showed two big yellow teeth, rubbed his nose, sniffed his snot, and said, "Hey, Mrs. Gu, did you quarrel with Miss Qin? Oh, woman, You have to give way and coax more, let me tell you, if a man wants to cheer up his husband, he can't just quarrel, it depends on the bed at night..."

"Stop!" Gu Qingci slapped Yan Bo on the shoulder hard, rolled his eyes, and said, "Don't talk nonsense to me, because you are an old and disrespectful guy, you are thinking about everything all day long. Get old!"

  Yan Bo didn't care, he laughed and said: "Oh, Mr. Gu, we are all men, and it's okay to communicate. I still have these books in my hand, which are precious..."

"Okay," Gu Qingci looked at Yan Bo speechlessly and said, "Keep those things for yourself. I'm not interested. If you have nothing to do, don't bother me. I'm going to the city wall now. I haven't been there for half a day today. If you don't show up again, I'm afraid there will be turmoil in the barracks!"

Gu Qingci is very clear that if he does not appear on the battlefield for a long time, the morale of the soldiers in Changling County will fluctuate. desert army.

  Although Yan Bo is a bit disrespectful, he still knows how to be serious when it comes to major matters. He is also very clear about Gu Qingci's position in the barracks and in the hearts of the county soldiers. Naturally, he knows that Gu Qingci's words are not exaggerated.

  He nodded and said, "My lord, I was sent by County Captain Pang. He said that the person behind the assassin appeared yesterday and is in the camp. He wants to hear your opinion!"
