Cranes and Blazing Sun - C48
Ah Xiang gently whispered into her ear, “Lady Miao, you still say that you don’t have one.” Why is his face so red? Ah Xiang, I’m an experienced person, how could I not know what you girls are thinking? Seeing that Sect Leader Zhang had gone to the kitchen, I immediately followed him. “Hold it in your hands.”
Miao Rufei moaned and said, “Aunt Xiang, you’re so bad. I’m not going to help you carry the dishes.” He turned and walked back into the room.
Ah Xiang smiled and said, “A girl is cute when love first starts. Time flies like an arrow, I’m already old.” He walked into the kitchen. It just so happened that he happened to bump into Zhang Qingyun as she walked out with two bowls of vegetables. She said, “Sect Leader Zhang, you’re lucky. Lady Miao is a good girl. Sect Leader Zhang must cherish her well.”
Zhang Qingyun said, “Aunt Xiang, what are you talking about? The food you make is really delicious. “There’s also a bowl of soup there. Just bring the soup here, I’ll be going over first.” He quickly walked to his room. “The dishes are here. You can eat now.” He picked up a piece of wild chicken meat and put it into his mouth before eating it. “En, it’s really delicious.”
Miao Rufei smiled and said, “Big Brother Qing Yun, you’re just like a greedy cat. Senior Lu hasn’t even eaten, why did you pick him up with your bare hands?”
Lu Hongshuang laughed, “It’s fine. Seeing Sect Leader Zhang makes me think of my young self.” I was a little girl at that time, and I always liked to steal food. Sometimes my brother caught me and I took him out of the water. Let him accompany me in stealing food, so Daddy won’t only scold me when he comes back. Generally, people would scold big brother because big brother is older than me. ”
Zhang Qingyun laughed, “So Senior Lu is such a tease, and also very smart, finding big brother as a shield. However, this cannot be blamed on me. If you must blame anyone, blame it on Aunt Xiang. Who told Aunt Xiang to cook so well? As he spoke, another piece of meat entered his mouth.
Ah Xiang brought in a bowl of soup and said, “Who’s speaking ill of me behind my back? My ears are itching. Is it you, Sect Leader Zhang?”
Zhang Qingyun’s face was full of smiles as he said, “Aunt Xiang, how could it be me? I’ll help everyone get a meal.” He quickly ran to the kitchen.
“You ran faster than a rabbit, and you said it wasn’t you.” He placed the bowl of soup on the table and said to Miao Rufei, “Lady Miao, tell me, was it Sect Leader Zhang speaking badly of me just now? He was not allowed to eat the dishes I made.”
Miao Rufei lowered her head and said, “No, no one said anything bad about you.” Senior must have heard wrong. ”
Zhang Qingyun came in with four bowls of rice and said, “Exactly. There’s no one else here. Who would say anything bad about you? You’ve heard wrong. Come, let’s start the meal.”
Ah Xiang said, “Is that so? However, my hearing has always been very good. I will definitely not hear wrongly. Lady Miao, if you help him so quickly, you will definitely be at a disadvantage in the future.”
Lu Hongshuang picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of pheasant meat for Miao Rufei and said, “Come, Lady Miao. Try Aunt Xiang’s cooking. If you don’t eat any more, someone will finish the rest.”
Miao Rufei said, “Thank you, senior. You can have some too.”
Zhang Qingyun said as he ate, “Where is it? Aren’t there a lot of them?” “Come, Aunt Xiang, you have some to eat too.” She picked up a piece of vegetables and placed it in Aunt Xiang’s bowl.
Ah Xiang smiled and said, “Sect Leader Zhang is not a good person, and I am not a little girl. I didn’t need your help to curry favor with me, and you were even saying bad things about me. Ah Xiang, I know how to pinch people.”
Zhang Qingyun smiled, “Aunt Xiang, you can’t be so stingy, right?”
“There are two kinds of people in the world, one is a naturally stingy person, the other is a woman. “Ah, I’m a woman, so I’m very stingy.”
Zhang Qingyun lowered his head and focused on eating. Without another word, Miao Rufei snickered as she ate. Aunt Xiang was very happy when she saw this. He thought to himself, I haven’t been this happy in a long time.
The next day, Aunt Xiang prepared breakfast early in the morning. Other than Lu Hongshuang, the two of them had not woken up yet. Gently walking to Miao Rufei’s room, he called her up and said, “Be more gentle, don’t wake Sect Leader Zhang up.”
Miao Rufei asked, “Aunt Xiang, didn’t you eat breakfast?” I’ll go tell Brother Qing Yun to get up. ”
Aunt Xiang said, “I told you to be gentle, because I wanted you to not wake him up. Who told him to sleep in and not eat breakfast?” We’ll take care of him. ”
Miao Rufei opened her mouth wide and said, “Ah, that’s not good. Wouldn’t that make Brother Qing Yun hungry? No, I have to wake him up.”
Zhang Qingyun leaned against the door and said, “I didn’t expect Aunt Xiang to be so bad. “Fei’er is still the best,” he said as he walked towards the dining room with his hands behind his back.
Aunt Xiang smiled and said, “At least you got up early. Lady Miao, let’s go eat breakfast.” Aunt Xiang went into the kitchen and brought out four bowls of rice porridge and two dishes of side dishes. It was placed on the table.
Zhang Qingyun looked at the bowls of the other three people and saw a wild egg on their porridge. “Aunt Xiang, why did you forget about my wild eggs?”
Aunt Xiang pretended not to know. She looked around and said, “No, there’s both Miss Miao and Miss Miao.” Mine too, I haven’t forgotten. ”
Zhang Qingyun said, “You guys have it, but not mine.”
Aunt Xiang said, “Sect Leader Zhang, you’re a man. Why are you eating eggs? And why are you snatching eggs from us three women?” He couldn’t help but laugh and mutter, “If you know you can’t afford to offend me. “Still not apologizing?” Although the voice was soft, Zhang Qingyun could still hear it.
Zhang Qingyun said, “I just said it last night, aren’t you being too biased? I’ll apologize to you now. Sorry, Aunt Xiang, I won’t speak ill of you again.”
Aunt Xiang laughed. “Isn’t that good? That’s a good kid.”
Lu Hongshuang said, “Sect Leader Zhang, don’t carry it on your body. Elder sister Xiang is just joking with you. Try putting it under your bowl.”
Zhang Qingyun took a big gulp of the congee, and when he saw an egg peeking out from below him, he smiled and said, “I knew Aunt Xiang was not that biased. So Aunt Xiang was messing with me, even Fei’er didn’t tell me.”
Miao Rufei said, “I don’t know either.”
Aunt Xiang laughed. “Of course not. If you knew, you wouldn’t have done it. With your heartache, it’ll definitely ruin my business.” He immediately put down his bowl and chopsticks and said, “Young miss, the incense is going to end.”
Lu Hongshuang replied, “Yes, it’s been hard on you two. Help Ping-jie bring her some food.”
Ah Xiang smiled and said, “Many thanks Miss. I will bring her sister.” With that, he walked out of his room and headed down the mountain.
Lu Hongshuang said, “Let’s finish eating and pack up so that we can get the sword.”
Miao Rufei said, “Senior Lu, the Hidden White Sword isn’t that far away, can you bring it back today?”
Lu Hongshuang smiled and said, “That’s hard to say. You’ll know when we get there.” After which, he got up and left the room.
Miao Rufei asked, “Brother Qingyun, it’s so weird. It’s hard to say what that means.”
Zhang Qingyun thought about it and said, “I don’t know either. Didn’t Senior Lu say we would know when we get there?” “Come, let’s pack up our bowls and chopsticks and set off.”
Miao Rufei smiled. “Alright.” The two cleaned up the dishes and brought them to the kitchen. After cleaning up, the three of them went to get the Divine Sword of Baiying.
The three of them arrived at a dense forest. The trees were shady. After passing through the dense forest, a cliff suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. The sound of water rumbled, and a column of water flew down from the mountain, spraying beads of water like flying snow, measuring up to ten million silver flowers.
Lu Hongshuang pointed to the other side of the cliff and said, “The Divine Sword of Baiying is on the other side of the cliff opposite the waterfall. In order to obtain the Divine Sword of Baiying, one must first pass this waterfall. ”
Miao Rufei could only see the water flowing rapidly and violently. It was at the edge of the cliff again. If it didn’t drop down, then it would be a total loss of life. No wonder he had said this morning that it would be hard to win the sword, it turned out that he had to go through this extremely dangerous waterfall. Startled, he said, “Senior Lu, the situation is so urgent, how can we get by?”
Lu Hongshuang replied, “What’s so difficult about that?” What was said was man-made. Didn’t I go over to release the Baiying Divine Sword? I’m still fine here. ”
Facing this unending torrent, Zhang Qingyun was slightly afraid, but when he thought of his mother, mother-in-law, Tingting and the others still waiting to be saved, he could not help but feel full of courage. and said, “This little waterfall is not going to be hard for us. Senior Lu, please lead the way. ”
Lu Hongshuang said, “Sect Leader Zhang, I will only send you here. You’ll have to rely on yourself to get there.” Back then, I promised my father that other than the descendants of my Lu Family, I would not pass on this White Ying Divine Sword. I would not go against my oath to my father. So I can only send you here. I forgot to tell you that there is also a Divine Swordguard Beast called the Fire Phoenix Divine Beast. You can’t help but have to cross this waterfall and defeat the Fire Phoenix Divine Beast in order to obtain the White Cloud Divine Sword. ”
Zhang Qingyun had been full of hope throughout the journey, thinking about what kind of martial arts Lu Hongshuang would teach him. Zhang Qingyun had been full of hope all along the way, thinking about what kind of martial arts Lu Hongshuang would teach him. After passing this waterfall, one would have to defeat a divine beast. You could not help but say, “Senior Lu, you must know a lot about this divine beast. Is there any way to deal with the Fire Phoenix God Beast? ”
Lu Hongshuang replied, “The Fire Phoenix God Beast has always been following my father. In the past, it had accompanied my father every day to practice the sword. If the Fire Phoenix God Beast was a human, it would be considered a top expert in the martial arts world. There was only one way to deal with the Fire Phoenix God, and that was to defeat it. “There is no other way.”
Zhang Qingyun was dumbfounded as he said, “This is harder than ascending to heaven. The Fire Phoenix God Beast spars martial arts with Island Master Lu every day, so how could an ordinary person be its opponent? Seems like I won’t be able to get my hands on the sword. ”
Lu Hongshuang replied, “I didn’t expect Sect Leader Zhang to have so little confidence in himself. He even prepared to give up without trying.” If an ordinary person is not its opponent, you, Sect Leader Zhang, can become an extraordinary person. ”
Miao Rufei smiled and said, “That’s right, Big Brother Qingyun. As long as Senior Lu teaches you a peerless martial art, you can defeat the Fire Phoenix God Beast and obtain the White Ying Divine Sword.”
Lu Hongshuang replied, “It’s not that I’m unwilling to teach Sect Leader Zhang, it’s just that our Lu Clan’s martial arts have never been spread out. Please forgive us.”
Miao Rufei said, “What? Why are there so many rules? Brother Qing Yun is the savior of your Lu family. Can’t you break it?”
Facing the plunging waterfall, Lu Hongshuang slowly closed her eyes. Her expression was extremely sad as she said, “No, we cannot go against the Lu family’s teachings. If you want the sword, you can only rely on yourselves. I can’t help it. ”
Zhang Qingyun said, “Fei’er, don’t make things difficult for Senior. Senior, for you to be able to tell us that the White Cloud Divine Sword is here, we are extremely grateful. I will definitely use my own abilities to snatch the White Cloud Divine Sword. ”
Lu Hongshuang replied, “To get past this waterfall, the lower form is the key, followed by the Qing Gong. The Flying Crane Nine Movement Technique emphasizes agility and stability. Sect Leader Zhang, as long as you practice the [Flying Crane] and [Nine Techniques] taught by Grandma Lu, you will be able to pass through this waterfall. If you want to fight against a Fire Phoenix God Beast, there is only one word to describe it. So fast, Sect Leader Zhang has to practice his movement technique and sword technique.
Zhang Qingyun handed the Mysterious Sky God Sword to Lu Hongshuang, who took it and leapt down the waterfall. Zhang Miao and Zhang Qingyun were both shocked, and Zhang Qingyun shouted, “Senior Lu, what are you doing?” The platform was about a hundred feet away from the mouth of the waterfall. She then leapt up against the water, her sword flashing rapidly, causing droplets of water to shoot out in all directions. In an instant, she leapt to Zhang Qingyun’s side, handing the sword over to Zhang Qingyun.
Zhang Qingyun took over the Mysterious Sky God Sword and realized that there weren’t any beads on Lu Hongshuang’s body. The way the waterfall poured down like this, to be able to come up from below was extremely difficult, but Lu Hongshuang was able to do it without getting wet, causing him to blurt out, “Senior Lu, your swordsmanship is too fast, it seems like there isn’t even the slightest bit of wetness on your clothes. I am truly impressed.”
Miao Rufei gaped in shock, staring blankly at Lu Hongshuang. She simply couldn’t believe that someone could do such a thing. Lu Hongshuang jumped up, and in the blink of an eye, she was already too fast to see.
Lu Hongshuang replied, “Sect Leader Zhang, as the saying goes, drawing blades to cut water is better, but if one’s swordsmanship can be broken like water, then one’s swordsmanship will have a certain level of proficiency. Defeating the Fire Phoenix God Beast is not a problem, so why not practice your swordsmanship properly here first. That’s all I can do to help you. ”
Zhang Qingyun seemed to have understood something as he said, “Thank you for your guidance, senior.” Jumping into the water, he slashed his sword into the water, using the Nine Style Crane Steps. He recited the Dian Cang Sword Technique in his heart and executed each move in the water.
Miao Rufei looked at Zhang Qingyun practicing his swordsmanship in the water. Both his movements and sword moves were two times slower than usual. She said, “Senior Lu, isn’t Big Brother Qingyun practicing his swordsmanship too slow?”
Lu Hongshuang laughed, “Sect Leader Zhang’s perception is not bad. He is not practicing sword arts, but footwork. Practicing footwork in the water was tens of times better than practicing on the ground. The reason why he is so slow in the water is because the water flow is very fast and the resistance is also very strong. Ordinary people can’t even stand stably in the water, just like Sect Leader Zhang who can practice the Flying Crane Nine Movement Technique in the water as fast as he can on the ground. This way, he can come to the flat land.
Miao Rufei smiled and said, “I understand.”
Lu Hongshuang replied, “This kind of training method isn’t suitable for everyone. First of all, he has to have a very deep level of inner strength.” If one did not advance in the water, it was only a matter of time before he retreated. Without a deep inner force skill to back it up, it was very dangerous. It was not a joke to accidentally be washed off the cliff by a large amount of water. ”
Miao Rufei said worriedly, “Then wouldn’t Big Brother Qing Yun be in danger?”
Lu Hongshuang laughed, “Don’t worry, Sect Leader Zhang practiced our Lu Family’s Prodigious Astral Qi to a degree of thirty percent. It’s more than enough to block this torrent.”
Miao Rufei said, “Right, didn’t brother Qing Yun already train the Lu family’s martial arts? Granny Lu can teach him, so why can’t senior?”
Lu Hongshuang’s face suddenly became as cold as winter frost, and said, “When I meet Grandma Lu in the future, she will go against my father’s wishes, so I will naturally settle this debt with Grandma Lu.” However, Sect Leader Zhang could not be blamed for this matter. That’s why I didn’t say anything about him. ”
Miao Rufei was intimidated by her imposing aura and didn’t dare to say a word. Standing to the side, he quietly watched Zhang Qingyun practice his swordplay in the water.
Lu Hongshuang said, “Sect Leader Zhang, as long as you train in this water for three days and then come back to the land, it will have an unexpected effect. You stay here and practice, we’re leaving.”
Miao Rufei said, “Senior, please go down first. I want to stay here to accompany Qingyun gege.”
Zhang Qingyun said, “Thank you, senior. Please take care.”
Lu Hongshuang nodded and said, “Up to you. Later, come down and help Sect Leader Zhang get some food.” He placed his hands behind his back and walked down the mountain.
Miao Rufei replied, “Yes, senior.” Seeing Lu Hongshuang walk further away, she noticed that Zhang Qingyun’s forehead was drenched in sweat. “Brother Qing Yun, would you like to take a rest first?”
Zhang Qingyun said, “It’s fine, Fei, I can still hold on for a while. I’ll come up when I’m tired. ”
Miao Rufei said, “Big brother Qing Yun, the water here is so fast, you must be careful.”
Zhang Qingyun said, “Initially, I was a little afraid when I came down, but I feel much better now.” As he said that, he leaped out of the water and somersaulted in the air. The Mysterious Sky God Sword slashed across the water surface and then leaped back up, landing lightly in the water. As steady as Mt. Tai, he smiled and said, “Fei’er, look, although the water here is urgent, I’ve only practiced for a short while, but it’s as flat as a thread.”
Miao Rufei smiled and said, “Okay, Big Brother Qing Yun, practice hard and don’t jump around in the water. Fei’er is scared when she sees it.”
Zhang Qingyun smiled and said, “Fei’er, don’t be afraid. This little bit of difficulty won’t be difficult for me. “I’ve mastered the ultimate movement art.”
