Chapter 40: Good as Water

The two looked at each other and said silently, with thousands of words in their hearts, but they didn't know where to start.

Chen Rufeng felt a dry mouth and dry lips, and his mouth opened and closed. He had to smile faintly and look at Li Yinru.

On the contrary, Li Yinru's eyes were gradually glowing and touching. As soon as she opened her mouth, she cried slightly and said, "Why haven't you come to me for so long?"

As soon as this secretly complaining sentence came out, Chen Rufeng's heart suddenly seemed to have overturned the fire oil. The hot fire has been burning from his heart to his neck to his face. His eyes avoided contact with Li Yinru, and a child bowed his head and repented in front of his mother.

"Well... Recently, there have been a lot of tedious things in the help, and I can't take time... I'm sorry..." Chen Rufeng scratched the back of his head very unnaturally. He looked at the corners of Li Yinru's eyes with tears, and it seemed that the tears that had been brewing for a long time were about to come out of his eyes, and his heart was even more sad.

"Do you know... I've been looking forward to... Suddenly... You will fly down from the roof... to make me happy..." Li Yinru said, with her eyes wide open, curled her mouth and choked.

Chen Rufeng was at a loss when he faced the woman's tears. He looked at Li Yinru with pear blossoms and rain and kept comforting her. This weak woman had buried her head and sobbed. Chen Rufeng's gentle whisper did not work at all, making Chen Rufeng anxious.

It's like isoling him with tears. He doesn't understand women's hearts, and he doesn't know how to comfort them.

After scolding himself fiercely for the tenth time, he expressed deep regret, but Li Yinru still sobbed. Chen Rufeng took a deep breath, and all his saliva was used up, but it didn't have any effect.

"The things in the help are really busy..." Chen Rufeng had to change his words and try to explain them. Unexpectedly, Li Yinru's crying increased a little as soon as he said this sentence, so sad. When the cold water poured on Chen Rufeng, Chen Rufeng was suddenly frustrated and no longer spoke. He silently looked at Li Yinru's headache and crying. Every cry was piercing his heart.

You don't understand me at all, the kind of suffering of waiting for day and night, and the hope of falling again and again.

I have something on my mind and can't find anyone to tell, do you know?

The words piled up in Li Yinru's heart and became endless grievances.

Suddenly, a warm feeling came from her hands, which went directly through every inch of her skin and penetrated into her heart.

The crying stopped. Li Yinru slowly raised her head, and the sleeves pillowed on the table had been soaked with tears.

Her hand had been wrapped by Chen Rufeng's hand. The man in front of her, with a smile on his face and warm eyes, his hands held her hand tightly, like two rocks that were forever together, even in the next life.

The two looked at each other, and Chen Rufeng said softly, "I promise that no matter how busy I am in the future, I will come to see you at least once a month, okay?" The voice was so soft that even Chen Rufeng felt that she was about to float up, but it was useful to Li Yinru. She immediately burst into tears and laughed, her eyes were soft, and she looked at Chen Rufeng affectionately, and nodded like a chicken pecking rice.

Their hands are firmly clasped together.

The laughter of the two rippled cheerfully and warmly between each bamboo.

Stepping on the leaf path, Chen Rufeng followed Xuan Wanmeng closely, twists and eighteen bends, and I don't know how many bamboo bushes he passed through. Along the way, both of them didn't say a word and didn't have much in common.

Chen Rufeng looked behind reluctantly, and Xuan Wan Miao Xiaozhu had already disappeared behind him. If Xuan Wanmiao hadn't interrupted them just now, I'm afraid they would really talk straight to the dark.

Xuan Wan Miao saw that Chen Rufeng was lost. For Li Yinru's sake, she took him back to Liushuiju and visited his old friends by the way.

"Where did you meet Yinru?" Xuan Wanmiao said, but she did not slow down. The thin silk clothes fluttered in the wind, like a red butterfly flying.

Chen Rufeng was stunned when he heard the words and dared not hide too much from Li Yinru's master and answered truthfully.

Xuan Wanmiao didn't hum when she heard it. She walked like a wind. If it hadn't been for Chen Rufeng's ethereal achievements, she might have fallen behind her.

After a long time, Xuan Wanmiao said unexpectedly, "You boy, don't live up to her. Otherwise, don't blame me for cutting you into ten pieces.

As soon as this came out, Chen Rufeng was shocked again. He quickly said, "Of course I won't. After I make a famous place, I will definitely go to the prime minister's house to propose marriage in person." In fact, Chen Rufeng's words are lack of confidence, and no matter how long it takes to build her own foundation, her father, Li Linfu, is not a good person.

Xuan Wanmiao nodded slightly, and a trace of sadness flashed through her eyes, as if some memory touched her, but she carried Chen Rufeng on her back, and Chen Rufeng could not see it at all.

Finally, when the darkness of the sky was sprinkled on the sky like splashing ink, the flowing water appeared in front of me.

Chen Rufeng patted the "bamboo sword" behind him to confirm whether it was still there, and followed Xuan Wanmiao in.

"Oh? Apprentice, did you also bring a rare guest?" Yuan Sirou raised her eyebrows when she saw the two people coming in. Chen Rufeng took down the bamboo sword and gently leaned it against the wall. Knowing that he was not enough to speak here, he shut up and said nothing.

Xuan Wan smiled deeply and said, "You old man, you secretly collected an apprentice and didn't tell anyone. If he hadn't lost his way and rushed to my house, we would have been in the dark!"

Yuan Sirou's face suddenly turned black. He didn't want anyone to know that he had accepted Chen Rufeng, an apprentice. Unexpectedly, this stupid apprentice unexpectedly lost his way and met Xuan Wanmiao, a difficult woman. If Xuan Wanmiao told Song Zhuoyuan, would he still be able to do it? After scolding Chen Rufeng in his heart, he began to think about how to deal with Xuan Wanmiao.

"Hmm, aren't you the same as me? It took a long time to tell the world..." Yuan Sirou laughed and thought she could shock her. Unexpectedly, Xuan Wanmiao smiled instead of anger, smiling so charmingly and charmingly.

Xuan looked at Chen Rufeng meaningfully and smiled, "My apprentice has an extraordinary relationship with your apprentice..."

Chen Rufeng's face turned red and moved his eyes to the window to avoid any contact with their eyes. Yuan Sirou was shocked and looked at him questioningly.

Xuan Wanmiao smiled and turned around to leave, but said, "Don't worry, I won't tell Song Zhuoyuan that you secretly accepted the apprentice. I don't want to be with my future apprentice and son-in-law, hey..."

Her shadow soon disappeared into the flowing water house and disappeared in the deep night.

After Xuan Wanmiao left, Yuan Sirou stared at Chen Rufeng. Chen Rufeng pretended to be wiping the bamboo sword and did not dare to look at Yuan Sirou.

"Very good...very good... When did you hook up with someone else's apprentice and didn't tell the master? Huh?" Yuan Sirou said harshly.

"No..." Chen Rufeng stammered, and the cold sweat had flowed down his forehead. "We... knew each other very early..."

"Oh, where's the childhood sweetheart?" Yuan Sirou said with a little sneer.

Of course, they are not childhood sweethearts, but Chen Rufeng is not easy to argue, so he has to be speechless. Yuan Sirou was too lazy to hang out with him on this issue. She waved her hand and said, "Go to bed. I'll teach you how to flow well tomorrow."

When Chen Rufeng heard this, a burst of incomparable excitement replaced the cold tremor and fear. Swordsmanship has no heart as the foundation, but meat and no bones. Having a good flow of mind means that he can have another way to cultivate qi.

Without Yuan Sirou's efforts, Chen Rufeng had already rushed out of the house excitedly, his feet and his body rotated in mid-air. In this way, he spread out on the bamboo** and swayed gently, which was extremely comfortable.

Yuan Sirou snorted with a smile and glanced at the bamboo sword in the corner.

"Ha ha, do you really think I will make a sword for you? I have been staring at this bamboo for a long time. Although it is short, it is strong and strong. It is impossible to break it without deep strength. Yuan Sirou stroked her chin with satisfaction and nodded.

The morning light is beginning to appear, and the thick fog has not dissipated, but Chen Rufeng is already ready to go, standing straight in front of the door waiting for Yuan Sirou.

Yuan Sirou straightened her collar, strode out, glanced at Chen Rufeng, and said, "Let's go."

Chen Rufeng shouted with joy in his heart and followed Yuan Sirou closely. With yesterday's experience, his attention is highly focused on the path he has taken today, noting down the characteristics of each place, and even picking up leaves as road signs.

But their journey is not far, but a few miles away from the water, they arrived in less than half an hour. This is a gurgling stream, dotted with pebbles, and several big trees sit quietly beside the stream. The stream is cut, winding like a snake, one person wide, and some of the large sitting rocks sink in it, like jade plates floating on it.

As soon as the two approached the stream, Chen Rufeng stretched out his head and looked at it. The stream was as clear as a mirror. He reached in and the water stroked his palm. It was cool and clear, as if many beads were massaging their hands, with an indescribable sense of pleasure.

There are many swimming fish in the stream, twisting their bodies and shuttle back and forth around the rocks. Rocks, fish and streams form a harmonious picture.

"Cough." Yuan Sirou coughed a few times with a cold face. Only then did Chen Rufeng pull his hand away from the stream and stand up to make a look of listening to the teaching.

"Good water flow, the so-called 'good', is opposite to 'evil'. We don't practice martial arts to kill people. We should face everything in the world with a 'good' heart and respect every life. Confucius knew the principle that human nature was good at the beginning of spring and autumn. Therefore, in order to learn this method of good flow, you must first have a 'good' heart, born in nature, and treat everything in nature well. Yuan Sirou said with a straight face.

The truth of this sentence is that fighting with good water must be the defensive side, and it is by no means used to take the initiative to attack in order to hurt people. Chen Rufeng thought for a while. If he was so passive, he was afraid that he would definitely suffer losses in the fight in the future, but he did not say much and continued to listen to Yuan Sirou in detail.
