    Chapter 19 Maple Leaf()

    "Oh? Are they really from the Maple Leaf Sword Sect?" Xiaoyue asked, with a somewhat excited expression. The girl's nature has not been lost and she likes to watch the excitement.

    "Hurry up and eat! Only when you are full can you have the strength to fight!" Xiao Yuesheng knew that Xiaoyue had a lot of food. At this moment, she was probably not full yet. Besides, she was busy talking to Bing'er, so she didn't eat much.  .

    He has always had the habit of taking a nap after meals.

    So every time he finished lunch, he would naturally feel sleepy. Now, he felt a little sleepy, so he suddenly leaned up, leaned on the back of the chair, and gently closed his eyes, as if he was resting his mind with his eyes closed.

    Xiaoyu also hurriedly lowered her head to eat. She was not full yet. After talking for a while, she felt a little hungry again.

    "Maple Leaf Sword Sect" Hong Lingbo muttered in a low voice. She suddenly felt a little irritable. She stood up slightly, turned around and stood in front of the attic window. The cold wind blew against her face, clearing her mind.

    Having not walked in the world for a long time, my courage has become smaller.

    When I followed the master, I had never been so embarrassed. They were the only ones chasing others, and no one had the courage to chase them. Now, I am actually being chased. It has been thirty years in the east of the river, thirty years in the west of the river, the wind and water have taken turns.  Turning around, she smiled bitterly in her heart.

    Maybe it¡¯s just like Master said, I am too merciful and soft-hearted.

    The first few groups of people were beaten to a pulp by him, but he did not kill them and spared them. However, the Nanshan Gang did not understand and still sent people over. Do they really think that as Li Mochou's disciple, he is a soft persimmon!  It seems that it is really time to learn from the master and use thunderous methods!

    While she was thinking, a cold breath escaped from her body, and the murderous aura that had been inside her for a long time was ready to move.

    " A round jade pendant appeared in Xiao Yuesheng's hand at some point. It was the size of a palm, green and moist, and looked extremely smooth and delicate.  He closed his eyes slightly, as silent as an old monk in trance. The jade pendant flipped between his fingers from time to time, and then was rubbed against the palm of his hand.

    Xiaoyu and Xiaoyue didn't think it was strange, it was their young master's old habit, but Bing'er secretly looked at him from time to time, feeling that this uncle was really a special person.

    "Coming!" Xiaoyue said softly.

    No one moved, Xiao Yuesheng closed his eyes and was lost in thought, Hong Lingbo stared out the window blankly, his back to them, Xiaoyu still lowered his head to eat, as if he hadn't heard anything, only Bing'er suddenly became nervous, staring at the door.

    Xiaoyu had long heard someone coming into the building. She asked if she had seen a Taoist nun or a girl. She also heard them saying things like "it's a prickly idea" and "you and I must be careful."

    After a while, there was a knock on the door.

    "Here we come!" Bing'er stood up suddenly and tightened the dagger she just got in her hand.

    Xiaoyu put down the bowl and chopsticks, stood up calmly, and opened the door.

    Standing outside the door were two thin middle-aged men, one tall and one short. The taller one had a long, thin face and a slender face, while the short one had a round face. His brows were full of sorrow, as if he had some unresolved worries in his heart.  Both of them are wearing long swords, their hands are long and slender, their eyes are sharp, and their brilliance is faint.

    "Are you?" Xiaoyu asked gently.

    "Ahem, excuse me, we're looking for someone!" The tall man cupped his hands in a gentle, polite and elegant manner.

    When he looked at Xiaoyu, the surprise in his eyes flashed away, and he quickly looked away.

    Xiaoyu secretly praised in her heart, she knew what she looked like. When others saw her at first sight, almost all of them were shaken and unable to control themselves. It took a long time to restrain their eyes from looking at her. The person in front of her could turn away at the touch of a finger.  , strong concentration is really rare!  Moreover, his eyes were gentle, and there was no evil spirit between his brows. It was obvious that he rarely killed people, and there was inevitably some compassion in his heart.

    "Second brother, look to see if it's them!" He said to the other person without squinting, his eyes fixed on Xiaoyu's snow-white wrist, implying caution.

    "Huh? Oh!" The short man woke up from Xiaoyu's beautiful face, his face was dark red, and he quickly took out two long scrolls from his arms, one in each hand, lowered them in front of him, opened them, and glanced at them.  He looked around the room again.

    "The Taoist nun at the window and the little girl in apricot clothes next to them are the two of them!"

    "good¡­¡­"

    "Hmph! That's rude!" Xiaoyu's pretty face sank slightly and she snorted heavily.

    "Buzz" The two people in front of them felt as if there was a sudden impact of a big brass ring on their ears, like thunder hitting their heads, and their foreheads seemed to explode, causing pain and dizziness.

    "Push!" The sharp eyes of the two people gradually dimmed, and they could no longer suppress the pain in their chests. They couldn't help but open their mouths and spurt out a mouthful of hot blood.

    The somewhat exhausted two people looked at each other and could clearly see the shock in each other's eyes.

    "Humph, you Maple Leaf Faction people are getting more and more courageous!  Tell Ye Chong to be honest!  "Xiaoyu's voice was gentle and soft, and the volume was very low, as if she was whispering, but what she said was old-fashioned.

    The leader of the Maple Leaf Sword Sect is Ye Chong. He is a martial arts hero with superb swordsmanship. In recent years, he has become very famous in the martial arts world.

    Xiaoyu twisted her waist slightly, turned around and looked into the room. Only Xiaoyue and Bing'er were looking at this side nervously, one with an excited expression and the other with nervousness.

    My young master is still sitting with his eyes closed, playing with the jade pendant in his hand, but with a smile on his lips.

    Seeing the expression on the young master¡¯s face, she felt reassured.

    Xiaoyu looked at Hong Lingbo again, as if she didn't know there was anyone here, she was still standing quietly by the pavilion window, her face facing outward, the breeze brought in a few snowflakes, blowing a few locks of long hair on her temples.  She is almost in a state of ecstasy, extremely beautiful, no wonder her son is so excited, he wants to give her gifts, and recognize her.

    The two people adjusted their breath carefully and opened their mouths to speak: "Fangjia is?" Their voices were a bit hoarse and dry.

    Xiaoyu turned around, smiled sweetly, and said: "My name is Xiaoyu, I am Xiaoxing's sister, Ye Zhong naturally knows it. Don't disturb my young master's rest, you can go!" After saying that, he waved his jade-like little hand gently,  Signal them to leave.

    The two of them stood stunned, unable to take their eyes away from her face. Her smile just now was like the sun suddenly breaking through the dark clouds, and the light suddenly burst out, making them dazzled by it.

    Seeing how stupid they were, Xiaoyu ignored them and turned around to close the door. She made up her mind to go back and ask Xiaoxing to go to the Maple Leaf Sect again and teach Ye Chong a lesson, which would be regarded as a small punishment for his disciples' ignorance.

    The two of them were shocked and frustrated at the same time. They were extremely talented and became disciples of the Maple Leaf Sword Sect when they were young. Their master, Ye Zhongying, the leader of the Maple Leaf Sword Sect, was an extraordinary martial artist. His swordsmanship was unparalleled and he defeated countless people with his sword.  The masters were almost invincible in the Jiangnan martial arts world. At that time, the Maple Leaf Sword Sect was still unknown. They had personally witnessed the Maple Leaf Sword Sect's growing strength and fame, and their hearts were full of pride and pride.

    Based on their qualifications, they have already learned seventy-eight percent of their master's skills. They thought that with their swordsmanship, they would be among the best in the martial arts world.  The master sent two of his brothers to intercept and kill the two women. Although he knew that the two men were quite troublesome, the Nanshan Gang was a ragtag group. Their words could not be accurate, and they were full of confidence that they would be able to kill them.

    I didn¡¯t expect that there are such masters in the world!  She was still such a beautiful young girl. It was really unbelievable in her heart. She couldn't help but wonder if she was dreaming. She pinched herself secretly and felt the severe pain to tell herself that all this was real.

    Full of surprise and loss, the two staggered away from Yingquan Tower. Their lonely and desolate figures were sad to watch.

    Xiaoxing is very fond of martial arts. When she heard about the reputation of the Maple Leaf Sword Sect, she ran there and forced the leader Ye Zhong to compete with her. Naturally, she beat Ye Zhong severely, but after beating him, she would still give him guidance.  After a while, he felt all kinds of feelings in his heart, and his expression changed when he heard the word "Xiao Xing".

    "Young Master" Xiaoyu stood next to Xiao Yuesheng and called softly.

    ¡°Oh¡ª¡ª, ha, so sleepy!¡± Xiao Yuesheng opened his eyes, yawned, and stretched, showing a sense of laziness and ease.

    Xiaoyue was full of questions to ask, but seeing Sister Xiaoyu talking to the young master, she had no choice but to hold them in for now. Bing'er was still confused and in the fog, and she didn't know why the two people were thundering loudly and raindrops were light.  Didn't rush in.

    "Good Xiaoyu, you have a bodhisattva heart!" Xiao Yuesheng smiled softly, and the jade pendant he had been playing with suddenly disappeared out of thin air.

    "Thank you for the compliment, Master!" Xiaoyu expressed joy from her heart.

    Hong Lingbo is a disciple of Li Mochou. At that time, only a few people in the martial arts could defeat Li Mochou. After so many years, Hong Lingbo's martial arts is probably no less than that of Li Mochou back then. The Maple Leaf Sword Sect's martial arts is no match for him.  They came over, and based on the murderous aura emanating from Hong Lingbo, it was not difficult to conclude that those two people were either dead or useless. Xiaoyu sent those two people away with good intentions.

    "Xiaoyue, go get some warm water and let the young master wash your face!" Xiaoyu sat down next to him. Seeing that Xiaoyue was about to speak, she gave the order.

    "Oh, okay¡ª¡ª!" She obeyed the eldest sister's words and obeyed without any violation.

    "Uncle Xiaoyu, are they here to deal with us?" Bing'er asked uncomfortably, her voice was crisp, but she felt a little depressed. Why is it that everyone here is a generation older than herself, and no one is younger than herself?  I really want to be an elder again.

    "Yes, they are holding portraits of you two."

    "Then how do you know they are from the Maple Leaf Sword Sect?"

    "There is a maple leaf embroidered on the lapel of their clothes. This is their??The mark of a disciple of the Maple Leaf Sword Sect.  "

    "Uncle Xiaoyu, your eyes are so sharp! Bing'er is far behind!"

    "Hehe, these are all accumulated experiences. Once you learn it, you will be able to understand it. Now Bing'er knows it! Every disciple of the sect has its own symbol, and most of them are tattooed on their clothes. For example, the Maple Leaf Sword Sect is  Embroider maple leaves on the skirt, embroider the mountains with Nanshan, and embroider umbrellas with Fengyun. As long as you pay attention, you will find that it is very simple." When Xiaoyu saw Bing'er's innocent and charming appearance, she felt fond of it and spoke in a soft and affectionate tone.

    Hong Lingbo turned around at this moment and looked at her disciple with doting eyes. She smiled at Xiaoyu and said, "Thank you, Miss Xiaoyu, for blocking the trouble for me just now."

    "Xiaoyu said hurriedly: "Xiaoyu doesn't dare to take this role! I don't dare to trouble Sister Hong to take action for a character with inferior martial arts skills. Xiaoyu handles it without permission. I hope Sister Hong won't take offense!"

    "Where" Hong Lingbo shook his head and was about to say more when the door opened.

    "Here comes the water, sir, wash your face." Xiaoyue held a steaming wooden basin, squeezed open the door and walked in.

    Xiao Yuesheng nodded, washed his face, and took the towel. Xiaoyu then trimmed his hair and straightened his robes. His movements were very familiar and smooth, and each link was carried out in a seamless and tacit understanding.

    This is completely the style and habit of a rich man. Hong Lingbo has never seen anything like this before. He frowned secretly and was not used to it.

    She lives in a Taoist temple with her master Li Mochou and Bing'er. She has no servants and usually does everything by herself and is self-reliant.  She had no favorable impression of children from rich families, and was naturally disgusted with their lifestyle. When she saw Xiao Yuesheng's wealthy habits, she felt a little displeased even though she had hidden love in her heart.

    Her behavior was seen in Xiao Yuesheng's eyes, but he didn't care. He just smiled in his heart. The environment affects people and changes people. Concepts can be changed.

    The meal has been eaten, the minor storm has passed, the heavy snow outside has stopped, and they are on their way.

    Xiao Yuesheng invited master and apprentice Hong Lingbo to go to Guanlan Villa to celebrate the New Year. Hong Lingbo struggled in his heart and finally refused. He wanted to go back to accompany his master, and then agreed to the invitation to visit Guanlan Villa after the New Year.

    Xiao Yuesheng did not force it. He had an indifferent sense of time and did not feel anxious.

    Outside the restaurant, the heavy snow has begun to clear.

    Xiao Yuesheng took the reins handed over by his clerk Chen Er, glanced at him, and said with a smile: "Let's go back to celebrate the New Year this year!"

    "Yes!Kowtow to the owner of the village!" Chen Er felt a little dazed when he heard it at first, and then his voice trembled with excitement, his eyes were moist, and he was about to kowtow.

    "No need!You have to work hard and don't lose the reputation of my villa!" He secretly flicked his long sleeves to block Chen Er's movement.

    "Chen Er, you should go back first." Xiaoyu reminded softly.

    "Yes! Madam." Chen Er replied respectfully, suddenly remembering the rules of the village, wiped his eyes quickly, turned and left.

    The regulations of Guanlan Villa are largely influenced by Xiao Yuesheng's life experience. Servants implement a points evaluation system. If they reach a certain score, they can be released outside and practice at the grassroots level for three years. After that, they can apply for a loan from the Villa to start a business, or work as a subordinate of the Villa.  Work in industry.

    During the training period, you are not allowed to have any contact with the villa. You must pretend not to know anyone you meet in the villa. Only when your life is in danger can you ask for help from the people in the villa.

    For Chen Er, Guanlan Villa is his home. He has not been able to go back even once in the past two years. He misses the easy-going owner of the village, his wives who are transformed into gods, and his close brothers and sisters. However, he met the owner of the village.  He and the two ladies could not come forward to see each other, which made him extremely uncomfortable, but he did not dare to violate the rules of the villa. Unexpectedly, the owner of the villa was merciful and allowed him to return to the villa to celebrate the New Year. He was so happy that he could not stop his tears.

    "This little guy is quite a good seed." Xiao Yuesheng said to Xiaoyu beside him with a smile.

    Xiaoyu pursed her lips and smiled softly. A few steps away, Xiaoyue was busy talking to Bing'er, carefully explaining to her the wonders of the dagger, which made Hong Lingbo's master and apprentice burst into surprise.  The situation was not noticed.

    Xiao Yuesheng looked at the sky, this meal took a bit long!  He smiled and said: "Xiaoyue, are you finished? You are the only one who talks a lot!"

    Xiaoyue hurriedly speeded up her speech, finished speaking in a hurry, and ran over.

    Xiao Yuesheng cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Lingbo, let's say goodbye now, and we'll have a long talk in our village next year!"

    "Brother Xiao, have a good trip!" Hong Lingbo suddenly felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart. It was difficult to say goodbye when we met, and it was difficult to say goodbye again after seeing each other. All kinds of feelings came to his heart. Fortunately, the New Year's Eve was coming soon. After the New Year's Eve, he went to Guanlan Villa for a visit.  She made up her mind and didn't care about her daughter's family's reserve.

    "Goodbye, uncle, Bing'er"I will definitely visit my uncle next year!  "Bing'er was also a little reluctant to leave. She had no father since she was a child and had never received father's love. When she met Xiao Yuesheng, she felt his love for her, and her admiration arose spontaneously.

    "Uncle, I will wait for Bing'er to come. Take good care of your master! Let's go!" Xiao Yueshang laughed, turned around and jumped on the horse, picked up the reins, spun around, and the three horses rode away.  Soon it disappeared at the end of the long street.

    ¡°Master, let¡¯s go too.¡± Bing¡¯er reminded Master, who was still standing blankly.

    Hong Lingbo rolled his crystal clear eyes, looked away from the distance, glanced at Bing'er, and nodded sadly: "Let's go too."

    As soon as they got on the horse, they suddenly heard the rapid and dull sound of horse hoofbeats behind them. She felt inexplicably happy and turned around to look back.

    The thick snow will make the sound of horse hooves much quieter than usual. It sounds not crisp enough and a bit dull.

    Xiaoyu came on horseback, with snow flying under her hooves, stirring up a cloud of snow mist. She came to them in the blink of an eye, jumped off the horse lightly, and handed over three round jade pendants.

    These three jade pendants are smaller than the ones Xiao Yuesheng is playing with. One is dark green and two are yellow. They are all crystal clear, bright and faintly shining, and extremely beautiful.

    "Sister Hong, this is the jade talisman that the young master gave to you and Bing'er. The two yellow pieces are escape talismans. A drop of blood on them can instantly send the holder ten miles away. Multiple people can use one, but  The effect weakens exponentially. Two people can only teleport five miles, and three people can only teleport three miles. The master asks you to remember to wear it with you so that you can use it to escape in critical moments. This green talisman is a teleportation talisman. When you arrive in Jiaxing in the future, you only need to drop a drop.  If the blood reaches the jade talisman, the young master will naturally know where you are."

    "Uncle Xiaoyu, why do you have to use blood?!" Bing'er played with the jade pendant in her hand and couldn't put it down. When she heard the method of use introduced by Xiaoyu, she stuck out her tongue.

    "Cackle" Xiaoyu chuckled, "Originally, it used internal force, but I was afraid that the internal force was insufficient. Blood could also be used. It is simpler and safer. Otherwise, wouldn't it be dangerous if the internal force was insufficient and unable to be used?"

    "You girl, you have so many faults! You still think this is a rare thing like that!" Hong Lingbo laughed and cursed, thanked him,

    Her heart was full of sweetness. These two jade talismans were extremely precious. Having these jade talismans meant that she had a few more lives. He was so generous, and it was obvious that he cared about her very much. Compared with this kind of heart, the jade talismans were so precious.  On the contrary, the talisman is much lighter.

    Xiaoyu saw Hong Lingbo thinking in a daze, pursed his lips and chuckled, turned his horse's head, stepped on the white snow, and quickly disappeared at the end of the street.

    When he was on the road again, Hong Lingbo felt much better. He gently stroked the jade pendant wrapped around his wrist and felt an indescribable sense of stability in his heart. This jade pendant might have been played with by that person in the past. Thinking of this, it felt like a jade pendant.  There is a bit of his breath, holding it, as if you are with him, you feel indescribable peace and joy in your heart.

    Since leaving Ji'an Mansion, Xiao Yuesheng's face began to darken.

    Xiao Yuesheng is somewhat fond of comfort and enjoyment. He never rides a horse when traveling, but always rides a carriage.

    Lying in a comfortable carriage, drinking wine, playing the piano, or painting, be arty and enjoy yourself.

    He really has no talent for poetry, because he likes freedom and can't stand the constraints of that kind of format. However, he still wants to learn chess, calligraphy and painting, and the purpose is not other than to kill boring time.

    There was nothing challenging about any of these. With his far superior intelligence, he quickly became master of all of them with ease. He once said to his wife that he was so versatile and would not go to the examination room to show off his talents.  It's really a pity.  Wanyanping then casually talked about the art of writing poetry, which immediately made him stop thinking about it.

    This time I changed my usual habits when I went home and rode on horseback. Firstly, I wanted to try something new. Secondly, I wanted to give the two little girls some hardships to let them know that it is not easy to travel around the world, so as not to be tempted and always want to go out to play.

    Just after I left Hong Lingbo, I still thought about her coldness and beauty in my heart. Thinking that she will come to his house next year, it is not like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth, and there will be no return!  As long as you show your skills, relying on the experience of picking up girls in modern society, it is not easy to catch them.

    Thinking of this, he suddenly sighed and thought of his wife.

    Although she is usually gentle and considerate, if he marries another woman, he will definitely break her heart. What should he do?  What a headache!

    "Drive! Drive¡ª¡ª" He patted the horse hard and accelerated again.

    Letting go of the protective energy, the cool wind hit his cheeks. He wanted the cold wind to blow away his sorrow.

    Xiaoyu and Xiaoyue also urged their horses to speed up and chased after him.The beautiful body rises and falls with the horse, integrating into one body, flying in the air, and is indescribably graceful and moving.

    "Sister Xiaoyu, the young master is a little unhappy!" The whistling cold wind could not stop the conversation between the two. They condensed their voices into a bundle of silk threads and pointed them directly at each other's ears. This was also a method of transmitting sounds into secrets.

    "Well, maybe it's because I just separated from Sister Hong!" Xiaoyu glanced at the silent young master in front of her and whispered.

    She was not in a good mood and was worried about what she was going to face.

    Xiao Yuesheng has told her that the young master wants to marry the eldest daughter of the Guo family and asked her to give him advice.

    "I am a girl, I only need to serve the young master well. It is my honor to serve the young master on his bed."  She didn't have any objection to the young master's romantic character. After all, all the wealthy people nowadays have three wives and four concubines. Among the people with status and status in Jiaxing City, which one doesn't have many wives and concubines?  Having fewer wives and concubines makes people look down on them, saying they are not capable enough.

    Even the honest and honest Sun Tzu Ming has far more wives and concubines than his master, his own son.

    In recent years, my wife has been depressed because she can't do anything. Although the young master comforted Kaijie and said that it was not her fault, but his own fault. As a Taoist, he did not want to have offspring, and worrying too much would be harmful.  Douji.

    "But the wife always feels guilty in her heart. There are three types of unfilial piety. The worst is not having children. Being unable to have children has constituted the conditions for divorce.

    So she began to make arrangements for the young master to take concubines, and the young master did not refuse. He looked at some women, but said that those vulgar women were unsightly and would hinder his eyes, so he refused to accept them.

    After the quarrel went on for a while, Madam forgot about this problem, and it has been postponed until now.

    Now, my son wants to marry a wife, not a concubine. I wonder if my wife will agree. Alas, this is really worrying!

    Xiaoyu sighed, shook his head, and stopped thinking about these troublesome things. His young master was omnipotent, and he would naturally solve it. She just had to follow behind.

    ???????????????? Once a woman succeeds in cultivating the Tao, her door to the mysterious female body will be closed and she will be unable to have children.  But it's not that Xiao Yuesheng can't make Wanyanping have children, it's just that he really doesn't want to have any offspring.

    For his own wives and concubines, he has the ability to improve their Taoism through the method of yin and yang cultivation. For others, he can improve their skills, but if he wants to forcibly upgrade their Taoist level, there is no way.

    If there is a descendant, it is impossible for him or her to cultivate to the realm of immortality. Then, one day the black-haired person will give birth to the white-haired person. He has witnessed with his own eyes the blow his parents suffered due to his death. That kind of  He thought to himself that he was unable to bear the destructive pain. Instead of doing this, it would be better to have no offspring, no worries, and a happy life for himself and his wives, wouldn't it be a joy?

    But there are some things in the world that cannot be explained clearly with words.

    Telling Wanyan Ping exactly what he thought, he just concealed the fact that he was a modern person and changed the era into this era.

    Although Wanyanping believed what he said, the knot in her heart still couldn't be completely removed.

    "It is a sin for a woman not to have children. This is a concept formed by culture in the past thousands of years. People cannot eliminate the influence of their environment on their bodies.

    "Xiao Yuesheng doesn't want children now, but that doesn't mean he won't want children in the future. People's ideas will change with the passage of time. What if he wants children again one day?"

    "There is nothing Xiao Yuesheng can do. Not everything in the world can be solved cleanly. Just leave these problems to time. Anyway, I have too much time to use up

    In my mind, time passes much faster than usual.

    Finally returned to Guanlan Villa.

    After riding horses non-stop for five days, they finally returned to Guanlan Villa.
