Chapter 2 Yesterday's Sword Seller
When I woke up again, it was already past noon.
The sunshine is just right, shining through the window sill.
The door curtain was also opened, so there was plenty of light.
It was still the familiar scene in the morning, but it seemed to have a different flavor.
He glanced inside the room and saw the table where he had been eating vegetables and porridge.
The empty bowls and plates on the table were naturally gone.
Li Hua has traveled around the world for many years, and anyone who can clear away the things on the table while he is dreaming without waking him up must be a master.
How did she do it?
He got off the bed, crossed the door curtain, and saw clearly what the brothel looked like.
Flower carvings and jade pendants, crisscrossing corridors.
This building is very luxurious, and this building is also very deserted. It can be said that there is no one in the private room except three or two chess players who play chess to make friends.
But a normal brothel shouldn't be so deserted from morning to night, unless it has closed down or is abnormal.
While thinking, he heard the sound of the piano and someone playing the piano.
The sound of the piano is swaying, the melody is soothing and peaceful, like still lake water, but it can flow into people's hearts.
The sound of the piano is beautiful, but what about the person playing it? Is it also as beautiful?
He went looking for the sound of the piano, and in the center below, he seemed to see the master, who was indeed the beauty.
She was sitting in front of the case at the moment, stroking the strings with her jade hands.
The high platform in the center is surrounded by transparent manthas.
Therefore, Li Hua could only see the figure of the woman playing the piano, but still could not see her face clearly or recognize her outline.
He knew that she was the person last night. Was he able to come here by chance, or was he intentional?
He walked down, because some things can only be seen clearly when they are closer.
He found an empty seat under the stage and sat down, listening to the music carefully.
Li Hua doesn't understand music, but that's not important, because at this moment, the sound of the piano seems to be able to understand him. He needs to be calm, but he is not willing to be calm, and the sound of the piano just does this.
There are many things in this world that are contradictory to each other, and people are no exception.
He rarely closed his eyes to appreciate it, and seemed to be trying hard to understand the music.
After the song ended, the music of the piano stopped, the chess players in the private room on the second floor clapped their hands, and Li Hua also opened her eyes.
This is a stage. If someone dances on top, the surroundings should be filled with onlookers.
When the wind blows, Mansha floats and flies, but Li Hua finally sees the person inside Mansha clearly.
The hand is a jade hand, the harp is a good harp, and the person is also a beauty.
"Master, did you have a good rest last night?"
It's that voice, as beautiful and sweet as the sound of her piano.
The guests in the private room on the second floor continued to play chess. Li Hua stood up, bowed and said, "Thank you, that's very good."
Mansha was opened, and Li Hua saw the young child who had talked to him in the morning.
She wore two braids, and she was indeed a little girl, but her figure gave people a mature feeling.
Li Hua's eyebrows wrinkled because he saw the girl holding a sword in her arms.
A Qinggang long sword that looks very ordinary in style but is extraordinary at the same time.
If you say it's ordinary, that's because the sword is indeed very ordinary. If you say it's extraordinary, it's because it was his sword, and it was still firmly in his hand before yesterday.
"Why is the sword here?" He was a little confused.
Yesterday, he went to the shop, pawned his sword, exchanged wine for wine, and finally got drunk.
Before yesterday, he had made up his mind not to hold the sword again. It was rare to get drunk for a few times in life. If he didn't get drunk now, when would he be more likely to do so?
"The man is here, why can't the sword be here?" the woman asked.
When Li Hua heard this, her eyebrows spread out and she said, "That makes sense."
If others can be here, then naturally the sword can too.
There is no requirement that you sell the sword at a low price and not allow others to buy it back at a high price. During this period, there is just an extra middleman to make the difference.
The woman's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and she glanced at the girl on one side.
The girl understood, put the sword in front of the shore, then picked up the string and walked away in small steps.
It seems that she has something to be busy with.
When the few chess players on the second floor saw the girl leaving, they all stood up, bowed and left. Although the space was large, there were only two people left.
"Sir, please come up and sit down."
When Li Hua heard this, she didn't think much and went up to sit down.
To be happy in life, you must have all the fun. If you can sit and talk with a beautiful woman, even the bad things you talk about will turn into good things.
Not long after, someone came up to offer tea. The woman raised her hand to take it and poured him a cup with her own hands.
The tea is very fragrant, but it cannot match the fragrance exuded by the beauty.
"Who is this girl? How do you know about me?"
The thing refers to the fact that he sold the sword. In other words, how did she know that she was the sword owner.
The woman smiled and said: "Please."
Li Hua naturally knew what she meant. After hearing this, she picked up the tea cup and drank it all in one gulp.
"Tea is good tea, but I prefer drinking wine in my life."
The woman heard this and said, "Wine has the beauty of wine, and tea has the benefit of tea."
"oh?"
"Wine can be intoxicating, tea can relieve hangover."
"So they're hostile?"
If tea can really cure hangover, wouldn’t tea and wine be mortal enemies?
"Not really." The woman smiled again and said: "At most, it is a nemesis relationship. Tea can relieve hangovers, so it is the nemesis of wine. Moreover, often the enemy is the true confidant."
Can tea and wine achieve the reputation of knowing oneself? Probably not. Tea does not know wine, but it can cure hangover. Can wine know tea?
"Yes." Li Hua couldn't deny it, because that was the truth.
"Does the young master have a nemesis?" the woman asked.
"Of course there is."
"Does the young master have a confidant?" the woman asked again.
Li Hua was curious: "Why do you ask this?"
He didn't understand why she asked like this. Are they familiar? No, Li Hua felt that if she remembered correctly, this was the first time they had met.
The woman asked again: "How many celebrities and swordsman masters have you met?"
Li Hua shook his head: "No."
The woman said: "The nemesis is here, and the confidant may also be here, so why did the young master abandon his sword?"
Li Hua was stunned when he heard this. If we talk about nemesis, he is not famous now, and many people are his nemesis. If we talk about confidant, where can he find it in the vast world?
The woman said no more and pushed the sword in front of him.
He glanced at the scabbard, stood up, bowed his head and asked, "May I ask the girl her name?"
"The little girl's name is Fangyu."
Li Hua was shocked: "The contemporary master of Qingluan Sword, Fangyu?"
Qingluan is one of the most famous swords in the world. It has been passed down from generation to generation in the Fang family, and only to women.
He couldn't understand how such a little girl could protect the Qingluan Sword from being taken away by others.
The woman smiled and said, "Have you heard of me?"
Her smile is beautiful, but it's like neon, out of reach.
Li Hua nodded: "Of course, according to my past thinking, I should draw my sword and fight with you now."
In today's world, although women are also a vulnerable group, no one dares to underestimate female swordsmen.
Because their swords are more capable of killing people.
"What now?" Fangyu asked.
