Chapter 60 Everything is fine
Life in Hongni Alley has not changed because of the arrival of Han Zhongjing and Shigure.
Shen Kuang still practices swordplay every day, and Su Yao will still follow him, but she stays with Shi Yu longer. The strangest thing is Uncle Han. I don’t know when, Shen Kuang discovered that he and Xiangkou Zhu The uncles became close to each other. In the next few days, Uncle Han's greatest pleasure every day was to carry a wine bottle to the entrance of the alley and chat with Uncle Zhu. I don't know if it was because the two strange middle-aged people had found a soulmate, or because they were older people who had something in common. Language, in short, they had a great time chatting every day.
A few days passed like this, and Dai Shuang, who had met Shen Kuang several times, came to Hongni Alley.
It was about Fu Xuan Sword. In recent days, the aura of swordsmanship in the Qinling Mountains has become stronger and stronger. This is a sign that Fu Xuan Sword is about to be born, so Jiang Ning asked Dai Shuang to come over and inform Shen Kuang that he would be leaving soon.
The thing that was supposed to come finally came. Shen Kuang was not worried about anything, but was a little excited. Shen Kuang didn't have much to prepare, and Youya was too conspicuous, so he didn't bring it with him. He only brought Bai Bai. mud.
Before leaving, Shi Yu gave a lot of advice, and Su Yao also said a few heart-warming words about taking care of safety. Only Master Han looked at it all with a smile, and just said "Go early and come back early", and then he was gone. Below.
When passing by the alley before leaving, Shen Kuang saw Uncle Zhu. Uncle Zhu became smarter after seeing Dai Shuanghou, so he just smiled and waved to Shen Kuang, and said to Shen Kuang the same as Han Zhongjing: "Go early, go early." Return."
————
Shen Kuang and Dai Shuang had met on two occasions before. The first time was at the Tingxiang Garden meeting, and the second time was when he met Wen Hua that day. This time, Dai Shuang had a cold face, serious words, and The first time I saw him, I was completely different.
It was obvious that Dai Shuang had no intention of talking to Shen Kuang, and Shen Kuang also understood what was going on. He was silent all the way and kept calm.
Dai Shuang, who was driving outside, arrived at Tingxiang Garden and said quietly to Shen Kuang in the carriage: "We're here!" After that, he didn't say a word and led Shen Kuang straight to Jiang Ning's. That small courtyard.
At this time in the evening, Jiang Ning was sitting at the stone table in the small courtyard, drinking tea. Warm wine was also there. The two of them were talking and laughing happily.
The first person to see Shen Kuang standing outside the door was Wen Jiu. As soon as he saw Shen Kuang, he dropped Jiang Ning and ran over quickly. Wen Jiu stared at Shen Kuang with some excitement and asked Said: "Brother Shen, why are you here? Is Senior Sword God back? Then let's leave now!"
The excited Wen Jiu kept talking a lot, trying to pull Shen Kuang out. Shen Kuang held Wen Jiu's hand with one hand, patted Wen Jiu's shoulder with the other hand, and said: "Master hasn't come back yet. I came because Miss Jiang has something to do with me."
Wen Jiu, who was full of hope, dropped his head in disappointment after hearing Shen Kuang's words, and then turned back to look at Jiang Ning: "Sister Ning, is it about entering the Qinling Mountains?"
Jiang Ning nodded.
Wen Jiu continued: "Grandpa doesn't allow me to go with you. If I go, it will only hinder you."
When saying this, Wen Jiu kept lowering his head, as if complaining to the two of them.
Seeing that he was in a bad mood, Jiang Ning comforted him: "Securing the sword this time is of great importance and is dangerous everywhere. Even Sister Ning can't guarantee that she will escape unscathed. Elder Wen will have to be there to support him when the time comes, so Elder Wen is I want to protect you. Xiao Jiu'er, you also know the cultivation level of those who went in. Even if you have the Fufeng Sword in your hand, you will inevitably suffer in the chaos, so Xiao Jiu'er, you should stay outside with Elder Wen. Pick up my sister

!”
In fact, Wen Jiuben also knew the reason. The young man was stubborn and unwilling to admit that his strength was not high. After listening to Jiang Ning's words, his drooping head straightened up and his mood improved a bit. He looked at Jiang Ning nodded and said: "Sister Ning, don't worry, as long as I... Grandpa and I are here, if you give those people ten courages, they won't dare to do anything to sister Ning."
The young man who had found his place now regained a trace of confidence in his heart. He looked at Jiang Ning and then at Shen Kuang, knowing that he should not stay here anymore, so he left with an excuse.
Shen Kuang and Jiang Ning knew the meaning of warming wine, so they did not stop them.
After Wen Jiu left, Shen Kuang approached the stone table and placed the white clay sword on the stone bench beside him.
"When are you leaving?" Shen Kuang looked at Jiang Ning and asked straight to the point.
Jiang Ning did not hesitate and replied: "It's only been in the past two days. The specific time has not been determined yet. Mr. Shen may need to stay in the garden for a day or two."
Shen Kuang wanted to shirk it, but Jiang Ning, who had seen the clues in advance, said: "You can leave anytime and anywhere in the past two days. It will be more convenient for Mr. Shen to live here."
That's what Shen Kuang wanted to say, so after Jiang Ning finished explaining, he had no choice but to nod his head and didn't shirk anymore.
Jiang Ning, who accepted her wish, seemed a little happy in her heart, with a smile on her face. She picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Shen Kuang.
Shen Kuang was a layman who didn't know how to taste or understand tea. He only knew that the tea in Tingxiang Garden was delicious, so after Jiang Ning poured him a cup, he picked up the tea cup and drank it in one gulp.
Seeing Shen Kuang's reaction, Jiang Ning poured another glass for Shen Kuang and asked with a smile: "Mr. Shen, you seem to like Jingting Luxue very much."
"Jingting Green Snow?"
"That's the name of this tea!" Jiang Ning explained.
Hearing this, Shen Kuang showed the original expression on his face, nodded with a smile and said: "I am a layman. I only know that this tea is delicious, so I drank a few more cups."
Jiang Ning also chuckled and said: "How can there be so many people who understand tea in the world? There are many people in the temples and rivers who are seeking fame and reputation. There are very few people who are as outspoken and honest as Mr. Shen."
Shen Kuang also smiled: "Miss Jiang thinks highly of me, I'm just telling the truth. There is a hierarchy of knowledge and expertise, and if you don't know it, you don't know it. But love is also love."
Jiang Ning was stunned when she heard the last sentence.
Shen Kuang also reacted quickly and added: "I love tea."
Jiang Ning smiled slightly, resolving the awkward atmosphere. Neither of them planned to delve into such an insignificant question, so they just drank a few more drinks.
After a while, Jiang Ning put down the tea cup in her hand and asked slowly: "I heard someone is coming to your house?"
When Shen Kuang heard this, he turned his head and glanced at Jiang Ning. Their eyes collided with each other without covering their eyes.
"Dai Shuang mentioned it occasionally when he came back. I was a little curious and asked. If Mr. Shen feels it is inappropriate, you don't have to answer." Jiang Ning added to explain.
Of course Shen Kuang didn't care whether it was suitable or not. He thought for a moment, then picked up the tea cup and took a sip: "An elder from the master's sect, even if I don't tell Miss Jiang, she will know."
Jiang Ning did not deny what Shen Kuang said. She didn't even need to investigate anything to know the senior Shen Kuang was talking about. There were only two people in the Xuanji Mountain lineage, so it was obvious who this senior was.
"Senior did not accompany your master, but came to Meiwu City to protect you, which shows how much Senior Sword God has for you.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Concerned." Jiang Ning said slowly.
Shen Kuang did not answer immediately because he understood the master's intention.
Shen Kuang was silent for a moment, then changed the subject and said, "Miss Jiang, you should tell me about Fu Xuan Sword!"
Jiang Ning naturally heard the meaning of Shen Kuang's words, so she followed his words and talked about Fu Xuan Sword.
"We have already explored the general direction of Fu Xuan Sword. After setting off, just follow the direction of the sword energy. However, after these days of dormant waiting, people from other forces have obviously felt that the sword energy in Qinling Mountains is different. It is normal, so they will definitely pass it back and move the ancestors of the sect to take charge, so we have to take advantage of the previous time to enter Qinling Mountains as soon as possible and find the specific location of Fu Xuan Sword. As for the problem after seizing the sword, Elder Wen arrived They will meet us outside when the time comes, so don’t worry.”
After listening to Jiang Ning's words, Shen Kuang pondered for a moment, and then asked: "Senior sect told me that the enchantment space where Fu Xuan Sword is hidden is very mysterious. Can Miss Jiang tell me where the mystery is?"
Jiang Ning heard the words, lowered her head and thought for a while, and then slowly said: "No one has entered the enchantment space for more than a hundred years, so I have only seen previous records about the enchantment space in the sect's classics. The book mentioned There are two weird places. One is that the inner space of the barrier is very large, and we will be scattered to different locations after entering it. Don’t worry too much about this problem, we have prepared special jade notes, and each jade note will have There is a ray of our own breath. After entering, we can rely on the jade note to quickly find other people to join us. The second thing that is special is that the air in the barrier space is thin, so once the true energy is consumed, it is difficult to replenish it, so if When you meet other people, remember to try not to conflict with them.”
Shen Kuang only knew about the mystery of the barrier before and had no idea about it. This time after knowing the general outline, he felt that the barrier space was full of dangers. The danger implied by not being able to replenish the true energy alone was extremely great.
Jiang Ning saw Shen Kuang's concerns and said: "I know that Young Master Shen has some issues with Mo Ying, but Young Master Shen doesn't have to worry too much. Everyone who enters the barrier aims at Fu Xuan Sword, so it's not a last resort. No one will take action casually. And there is more than one enemy of Mo Ying. Once he exhausts his inner strength because of taking action against you, there will be only death waiting for him. After entering the barrier, the first thing we have to do is Meet up with the others. People from the Yuwen clan will also be with us this time, so Mr. Shen doesn’t have to worry."
Shen Kuang knew that most of what Jiang Ning said were ideal situations, and no one could predict unexpected surprises. However, Shen Kuang was not that worried about safety issues. Once he met someone, he could use the catkin body technique to try his best. Pulling away from others is a way of avoiding combat.
At this point, everything that needs to be said has been basically said, and the two of them returned to their original silence.
After not seeing each other for a few days, it seemed that it was not against the two of them to talk about these things. But now, after everything was said and there was nothing left to talk about, the atmosphere began to become different again. Shen Kuang raised his head and glanced Jiang Ning, however, never wanted to meet Jiang Ning's eyes. The two of them shook their heads and chuckled, as if they both understood the little thoughts in their hearts.
Shen Kuang said, "I haven't seen you for a few days. Is everything okay with Miss Jiang?"
Shen Kuang would not say anything if he cared too much, so although he meant to care when he mentioned these things abruptly, it always seemed awkward and funny.
Jiang Ning smiled: "Everything is fine. Where are you, Mr. Shen?"
"I'm fine too."
