Chapter 140 Asking but not getting, getting but not wanting

Due to some considerations, Jiang Shouzhong did not tell Ran Qingchen about Yelu Miaomiao, and when he came to this small courtyard, Jiang Shouzhong warned Xia He They kept Yelu Miaomiao's identity secret.

So even if Jinxiu knew there was a woman in the house, she didn't know her specific identity.

It's not that Jiang Shouzhong doesn't trust Ran Qingchen, because the other party is a court official after all. Now that her husband plans to send the enemy princess back, it will undoubtedly be difficult for her.

It’s better not to know.

On the contrary, Jiang Shouzhong did not hide anything from Jiang Yi.

As soon as Xia He Qiuye and the others are loyal to Jiang Yi, they will tell her sooner or later. Secondly, Jiang Yi needs to get a customs clearance document and a false identity, otherwise it will be difficult for Miaomiao to leave the continent.

In addition, Jiang Shouzhong also asked Jiang Yi for a disguise suitable for Yelu Miaomiao to avoid trouble.

What surprised Jiang Shouzhong was that Ran Qingchen had a secret conversation with Jiang Yi before leaving. He didn’t know what Jiang Yi said. Ran Qingchen looked embarrassed at first and argued for a few times. sentence. Then Ran Qingchen seemed to be thinking again, and took Jin Xiu away with him when he left.

This made Jin Xiu, who only wanted to be the girl with the first wife, very sad. Before leaving, she looked back three times.

Erliang also burst into tears watching this.

Originally, she wanted to learn how to cook with this elder sister, but she never thought that it would be over so soon.

Jiang Shouzhong felt confused and asked Jiang Yi, "What did you say to Qingchen?"

Jiang Yi looked at the man up and down with her phoenix eyes, making Jiang Shouzhong feel uncomfortable. At this time, he smiled and said, "I didn't say anything, I just made fun of Miss Ran."

Jiang Shouzhong frowned and looked at her.

Jiang Yi suddenly took a step closer, her orchid aura was overwhelming, and her charming look appeared beside her. She patted the man's shoulder with her white catkins, and said with a smile like a flower: "When things come, your heart begins to appear, and when things go, your heart becomes empty... You... My wife will suffer a big loss sooner or later."

...

The next day, it started to rain continuously.

The soft rain lingers into mist and sprinkles on the bamboo leaves beside the pond, rustling like spring silkworms eating mulberry leaves.

When Yan Changqing arrived, Jiang Shouzhong was boxing in the courtyard.

Every time a fierce punch passes through the rain and fog, it will create circles of ripples and explode countless water droplets in the air.

Jiang Yi sat in front of the pond and started fishing boringly again.

Xia He was holding an umbrella next to him, and the other three women were standing under the eaves. The pretty and slender figure of the girl intertwined with the silent early spring drizzle to form a scene.

Zhang Queer is meditating in the room.

Erliang had nothing to do, sitting on the threshold of the kitchen, holding his chin with his hands and watching Jiang Shouzhong boxing. He was fascinated by it, and occasionally thought about what delicious meals he should make tonight.

Yan Changqing looked at the small courtyard and clicked his tongue: "You brat is getting more and more lucky. He has a group of wives and concubines, his cultivation level has increased greatly, and even the place he lives in is so luxurious... I am so envious of him."

"Master!"

Jiang Shouzhong did not call the other party "Mr. Yan" this time, but generously regarded himself as his disciple.

Jiang Yi glanced at it and continued fishing.

"Go, go, go, what kind of master, you don't even have the apprenticeship ceremony." Yan Changqing said with a look of disgust, "I didn't know how to leave a note on the old door when I moved, making it difficult for me to find him."

Jiang Shouzhong said cheerfully: "Our master and apprentice have the same mind. Even in the ends of the world, the master can find me. As for the apprenticeship ceremony, I will definitely make up for it in the future."

"Tell this to a woman. It's not disgusting to tell a bad man like me."

Yan Changqing snorted angrily, came to the pond and squatted down, looking at the dead fish caught on the fish hook in the pond, and looked at the river. Yi asked curiously, "Why not just catch a few live fish and throw them in for fishing?"

Jiang Yi's answer was simple, "I'm stupid, I can't catch them."

Yan Changqing couldn't help but be speechless.

Bang!

At this time, Zhang Queer's door suddenly opened.

A slender and petite figure jumped out of the basin like a fish and flew out.

After seeing the ordinary-looking Yan Changqing by the pool, Zhang Queer hesitated, suppressing his excitement and asked: "Is this the famous sword demon Yan Changqing?"

Yan Changqing shook his head, "No."

Zhang Queer was stunned.

Yan Changqing unscrewed the wine cork and smelled the overflowing wine, and said with a smile: "There is no famous person, he is just a little swordsman who knows a little about swordsmanship."

Plop!

Zhang Queer knelt on the ground.

The girl raised her snow-white slender chin and said loudly: "Senior Sword Demon, my name is Zhang Que'er, and I want to accept you as my teacher!" After saying that, she banged her head three times.

The girl was so sincere that her forehead was bruised.

However, Yan Changqing didn't seem to notice it. He looked at the fishing rod in Jiang Yi's hand and asked curiously: "How many kilograms of fish can this fishing rod catch?"

Jiang Yi tilted her head. Shou thought about it seriously, then shook his head, "I don't know."

Yan Changqing touched his chin and thought for a while, then turned to Jiang Shouzhong and said, "Boy, take off your clothes."

Take off your clothes?

Jiang Shouzhong was confused.

"Hurry up! Just take off your shirt." Yan Changqing glared and urged.

Jiang Shouzhong didn't understand what the other party was going to do, but he still took off his shirt, revealing his strong upper body.

The four women in spring, summer, autumn and winter all blushed when they looked at the man's undulating, masculine bronze muscles.

Qiuye turned away from her pretty face, Dongxue covered her eyes with her hands, removed a finger gap and watched secretly. As a result, the next moment, the eldest sister Chun Yu forcibly turned her head away.

"What's there to see?" Chunyu scolded.

Dongxue whispered dissatisfiedly: "Then why are you still watching."

Chun Yu gave a very good reason, "Sister, I have experience, of course I can watch." 
Yan Changqing pointed to the pond and said to Jiang Shouzhong: "Jump in."

Jiang Shouzhong did not hesitate this time, thinking that the other party might want to teach him some underwater cultivation methods. In the spirit of Master Following the principle of taking whatever he said, he jumped into a pond about two meters deep.

The man who was stung by the cold pool water was startled, and he stuck his head out and asked: "Master, what happens next?"

"Boy, you are a fish now..."

"Huh?" 
There are question marks all over Jiang Shouzhong’s head.

Yan Changqing turned to Jiang Yi and said, "Try to catch him and see if you can catch him."

Jiang Yi rolled her eyes and threw the fishing rod to him, "You can play with yourself if you want. I don't care about playing with your apprentice." After that, he got up and went back to the hut, but let the four Chunyu girls stay.

Yan Changqing held the fishing rod, turned to Erliang, who was nervous about his master on the kitchen threshold, and smiled: "Little girl, are you here to fish?"

Erliang shook his head desperately, and then became angry. Staring at him, "Master is not a fish!"

Yan Changqing was happy, and asked the four Chunyu girls: "Where are you guys, who wants to fish?"

The four girls looked at each other, In the end, Dongxue, who had a more out-of-the-box temperament, volunteered, "I'll do it, I'll do it."

Chunyu failed to stop it.

Dong Xue took the fishing rod enthusiastically, "Senior Yan, what fishing method should I use? Should I throw him directly in the air or stir him back and forth in the water? I am very good at fishing. But this Will the hook hurt him? How about letting Jiang Mo wear a gold-threaded garment? "

"Master, are you interested?"

Jiang Shouzhong looked grim.

Yan Changqing raised his hand, and inside the clothes he took off on the bank, the spiritual water sword that Ran Qingchen had given to Jiang Shouzhong flashed a white light, flew through the air, and appeared in his hand.

Yan Changqing had a sword fight.

The Lingshui Sword made a buzzing sound, and the sword body moved like flowing water.

"What a sword!" Yan Changqing praised, smiled at Jiang Shouzhong, "Watch it, kid, I will teach you a sword technique."

After that, The soft sword suddenly straightened.

Yan Changqing swung his sword very slowly, and he didn't seem to be afraid of others trying to imitate him. The movement of Qi was clearly shown in the shadow of the sword's light.

Due to the blessing of the Daomen River Picture, Jiang Shouzhong only saw it once and memorized it. Moreover, the profound energy in the orifices in his body began to flow spontaneously, and the water in the pond rippled and tiny whirlpools appeared. .

The sword moves can only be broken down into three styles, which are very simple.

After the demonstration, Yan Changqing threw the Lingshui Sword to Jiang Shouzhong and said with a smile: "Sink to the bottom of the pool and practice this move again. Do not breathe in the middle, and you are not allowed to come out. Remember, you must hold it Hold the sword tightly."

"Simple."

Jiang Shouzhong took the Lingshui Sword and sank into the water.

After the Spirit Water Sword meets the water, the sword body becomes more and more transparent in an instant, crystal clear, as if it merges with the surrounding water.

Jiang Shouzhong held his breath, stepped on the bottom of the pool, and began to swing according to the sword style he had memorized.

As the qi flowed from the acupoints, the water in the pool with him as the center began to rotate unconsciously, forming a large whirlpool.

Yan Changqing smiled at Dongxue and said: "Throw the hook and start fishing. Little girl, just use your strength and play whatever you want. Don't worry, you won't hurt him."

"Okay."

Dong Xue smiled and threw the fishhook towards Jiang Shouzhong's position.

However, the girl is still afraid of hurting the man, so she tries her best to land the fishhook next to the man, thinking of hooking the man's pants to catch him... If she accidentally loses the man's pants, then... Better.

The moment the fishhook fell into the water, it was pulled in by a huge suction force.

The next moment, the fishhook was wrapped around the Lingshui Sword.

Dongxue felt her arm sink, and subconsciously pulled hard. Before Jiang Shouzhong, who was performing sword moves, could react, the spirit water sword came out of his hand and was pulled out of the water by the girl.

Yan Changqing reached out to collect the Lingshui Sword.

Jiang Shouzhong emerged from the water and glared at the girl, "Girl, what are you doing!?"

Dong Xue smiled sarcastically at first, then suddenly remembered that she was "acting under orders" and couldn't help but put her hands on her hips. , stood up two well-decorated apartments smaller than Chunyu and larger than Xia He, and said in a crisp and confident voice: "Senior Yan asked me to fish, why are you angry at me."

Jiang Shouzhong Looking at Yan Changqing, I saw that the usually gentle man's face was as dark as water at this time, and I couldn't help but feel uneasy.

"I asked you to hold the sword steady, are you deaf?"

Yan Changqing threw the long sword over and said coldly, "Come again!"

Jiang Shouzhong held the Lingshui Sword tightly and took a deep breath. Tone, fell to the bottom of the pool.

Dongxue dropped the fishhook again.

The fishhook is still the same as before. After falling into the water, it will attract itself and wrap around the Spirit Water Sword.

The girl gave a strong lift.

This time Jiang Shouzhong held the Spirit Water Sword firmly, but his whole body was pulled out of the pond like a white-striped fish. Fortunately, the man reacted very quickly and stood firm, otherwise he would have fallen to the ground like a dog.

“Come again!”

Yan Changqing looked ugly.

Jiang Shouzhong gritted his teeth and continued to jump into the pond.

Wow!

The man was caught again.

Without Yan Changqing’s reminder, Jiang Shouzhong continued to jump into the pool.

Once, twice, three times...

Every time Jiang Shouzhong performs a sword move, the Spirit Water Sword will create a vortex in the pool water and attract fish hooks, making it impossible to complete the sword move. After the exercise, I drank a lot of water.

In the end, Dongxue was so embarrassed that she thought about letting him go, but after looking at Yan Changqing, she didn't dare to feel sorry for her brother-in-law.

"There is a fine line between stupidity and cleverness."

Yan Changqing shook his head and didn't bother to look. Seeing Zhang Queer still kneeling on the ground, he walked over and asked with a smile: " Little girl, let me ask you, why are you learning the sword from me?”

Kneeling with pain in his knees, Zhang Queer said without thinking: “I want to kill all the evil people in the world!”

Yan Changqing sighed and said regretfully: "Then my swordsmanship is really not suitable for you. My swordsmanship is greedy for life and fear of death. It is used to save lives. You should find another master."

After speaking, he turned and left.

Zhang Queer was stunned, stared at Yan Changqing's back and said loudly: "Saving life and killing people depend on people, not swordsmanship. Swordsmanship is dead, but people are alive!"

Yan Changqing paused and said with a smile: "But swordsmanship is created by people. Swordsmanship created by people who like to kill people is naturally killing swordsmanship. Swordsmanship created by people who like to protect themselves is naturally used for self-protection. Thank you. As a teacher, I might as well go to Mrs. Jiang. She has a lot of murderous martial arts in her arsenal, which are enough for you to learn."

Zhang Queer said: "I just want to become your teacher. Since you are called Sword Demon, you naturally know how to kill people."

This time Yan Changqing said frankly: "Yes, but I don't like you."

Looking at the man's leaving figure, Zhang Queer's slender fingers clutched her shirt tightly, and her thin lips drew blood.

Yan Changqing came to the kitchen and smiled at Erliang who was preparing to cook: "Little girl, I'm a little hungry. Do you have anything to eat?"

Erliang was "bullying" this person. My master's "bad guy" had a very sullen face and ignored him with a sullen face.

But in the end, she was kind-hearted and handed him two pieces of osmanthus cake made by Sister Jinxiu.

Yan Changqing ate sweet-scented osmanthus cake, looked at the dark and thin little girl, sat on the threshold and said with a smile: "Last time I saw you sweeping the snow alone with a big broom, your hands were all covered with snow. He was suffering from frostbite and was shivering from the cold, but he still cleaned up Jiang Mo’s yard seriously. ”

Erliang, who had two pigtails, pointed the back of his head at the world's best swordsman, looking like I don't want to care about you.

Yan Changqing asked: "Girl, do you want to learn the sword?"

"No!"

Erliang answered stiffly.

The hit Yan Changqing was a little sad.

Those who want to learn cannot learn, and those who can learn do not want to learn... Asking but not getting, getting but not wanting, some things in the world are so mysterious.

Yan Changqing asked unwillingly: "Really don't want to? Little girl, don't you want to fly to the sky with a sword? Don't want to defeat the demons in the world with one sword? Don't want to become the female sword fairy that everyone envies? Don't want to..." 
"Can practicing swordsmanship make the fried dishes taste better? Can the cooked rice be more fragrant? Can you become as powerful as Sister Jinxiu?"

Erliang asked seriously road.

Yan Changqing was confused.

Stir-fry? More fragrant? Who is Jinxiu?

Seeing that the little girl was a little disappointed because of her silence, Yan Changqing quickly went against her conscience and patted her chest and said, "That's for sure. As long as you practice swordsmanship well, cooking will definitely taste better."
 “Really?”

Erliang’s clear eyes lit up.

Yan Changqing nodded vigorously, "It really can't be true anymore."

Erliang asked again, "Are you very good at swordsmanship?"

The uncle who usually only said that he knew a little about swordsmanship showed a rare expression of pride, "The best swordsman in the world."
 So Erliang handed him the spatula, "Then you cook something for me to see."

The little girl showed an expression like "I haven't read a book, but don't lie to me."

The sword demon held the spatula and looked at the big iron pot in front of him, the corners of his mouth twitching.

What the hell is this!

If you want to have an apprentice, do you have to learn how to cook?
