"She..." Xiao Yunyin looked hesitant. He obviously didn't want to mention that sad past, but after much hesitation, he still sighed and told, "As you know, she used to be one of the Seven Swordsmen of Mount Tai, just like me.
First, he is the backbone of the Taishan Sect. Seven years ago, the Three Swordsmen sect suspected that the head of Jintai had killed their leader Zhuo Ming, and led the crowd to the Taishan sect to retaliate. In order to protect the Taishan sect, we, the Seven Swordsmen of Taishan, and the Three Swordsmen
The people of Dao Zong fought to the death. The battle was so intense that many people died. Afterwards, I was lucky enough to survive and started looking for Qing Shu everywhere, but I couldn't find her anywhere. No one was alive, and no body was found.
At first I thought she was injured and hiding, or chasing the enemy to a distant place, but after I waited for many days, she still didn't come back. The longer I waited, the more frustrated I became, and finally I had to accept that she had died a tragic death.
Facts." After saying that, he sighed again.
"Did you find her body later?" Zhao Zheng asked intentionally.
"No, although this is the cemetery I built for her, it is actually empty. Only a few pieces of her clothes were buried as replacements." Xiao Yunyin shook his head.
"Since her body has not been found, it cannot prove that she is dead. Maybe she is still alive in this world. Senior, it is better not to give up completely."
"A few years ago, I really thought so, but after so many years, I no longer have those kind of daydreams. If Qing Shu is still alive, she will definitely return to the Taishan sect. How can it be that after so many years?
There is no news. Even if she is captured by the Three Sword Sect, the Three Sword Sect will definitely use her to threaten the Taishan Sect, and they will not be so peaceful."
"It is not as good as fate. Maybe Senior Xie did not come back because she encountered some special things. There are many things in the world that we cannot guess. Maybe one day, she will suddenly appear in front of you and say
indefinite."
Regarding such whimsical words, Xiao Yunyin just smiled bitterly and did not take it seriously.
"It's a pity that I came a few years late and didn't have the opportunity to meet Senior Xie and see her beauty. This is really a regret in my life." Zhao Zheng changed the subject and lamented towards the graveyard.
"If you want to see her, I have a scroll of paintings here. I have been carrying this scroll with me over the years to see things and think about people." Xiao Yunyin said, reaching for his waist and unhooking a scroll from it.
The tied scrolls were unfolded and displayed to Zhao Zheng.
As the scroll rolled down, the image of a woman in the painting was revealed in front of Zhao Zheng. The workmanship of this painting was very detailed and lifelike. The woman in the painting was also extremely beautiful. She held a sword in her jade hand, posing
The starting position of a certain swordsmanship has a very feminine and unconventional feel.
Zhao Zheng looked intently at the face of the woman in the painting, stared blankly for a while, and suddenly exclaimed: "I seem to have seen the person in the painting!"
As soon as these words came out, it was Xiao Yunyin's turn to be surprised.
…
Three days later, at the border of Jumu County, Nanfan Province, a ray of light traveled through the sky at an extremely fast speed, flying far away in the blink of an eye.
There are two people flying through the sky, one of them is Xiao Yunyin, and the other is Zhao Zheng. With Zhao Zheng's ability, he naturally does not have the ability to fly in the sky. The only one who is really responsible for controlling the volley is
Xiao Yunyin was just one person.
Xiao Yunyin stepped in front of the sword, using his feet to continuously pour powerful and deep internal energy into the sword. At the same time, he reached out to grab Zhao Zheng behind him to prevent the latter from falling from the sword.
The reason why the two of them left in such a hurry had only one purpose, and that was to find the missing Xie Qingshu!
Three days ago, Zhao Zheng claimed that he had seen the person in the painting. Xiao Yun was thinking about his deceased wife, so naturally he could not let go of this clue and inquired about it. Zhao Zhengzhi answered all questions, claiming that he had seen the person in the painting in this place two years ago.
On the human side, Xiao Yunyin was very excited when he learned about this, as if the drowning man had grasped a life-saving straw. He immediately ran with his sword under his feet to find the person, and arrived all the way here.
Zhao Zheng happened to appear in front of the cliff when Xiao Yunyin was paying homage to his dead wife, and he happened to have seen the missing Xie Qingshu. All this seemed like a coincidence, but in fact it was Zhao Zheng's deliberate act. He did know where Xie Qingshu was.
place, and taking Xiao Yunyin to find Xie Qingshu is an important task. After completing it, it will bring him considerable benefits.
"Whoosh! Touch!"
The rapidly flying sword rubbed circles of air waves in mid-air. These air waves exploded in mid-air with a sound like thunder, frightening the birds perched on the trees in the distance.
While flying, Zhao Zheng kept staring at the forest below. This land belongs to Jumu County. There are many trees called giant trees growing around it. These trees are tall and have many uses. Many people in the local area rely on them.
Make a living by cutting down this giant tree.
As he flew, he suddenly discovered that the topography below was consistent with a topography in his memory. He immediately cheered up and his heart became suspended. After flying for a while, he caught a glimpse of a place in the forest.
The wooden house immediately said without hesitation: "Senior, stop quickly. That's where I met Senior Xie Qingshu."
If his prediction was correct, Xie Qingshu, who had been missing for many years, should be living in this wooden house and changed into another identity.
Xiao Yunyin's eyes froze when he heard this, and the foot he stepped in front suddenly increased his strength, causing the sword under his feet to tilt downwards and plunge into it. After falling in the air, his feet moved again, and he skillfully adjusted the direction of the sword tip.
He took the two of them and flew all the way to the cabin.
When they got close, the two stepped on the sword and fell to the ground together. Xiao Yunyin raised his finger and flicked it casually, and the sword immediately flew back to the scabbard and fell silent. He walked in front, turned to Zhao Zheng and asked: "You
Do you recognize it clearly, is this where it is?"
"Junior remembers his surname pretty well, I should remember it correctly." Zhao Zheng said firmly.
"Okay, then I will inquire with this family first to see if I can get any clues. If there are no clues, I will inquire around the area." Xiao Yunyin said hurriedly.
The two of them discussed the countermeasures and walked to the door of the wooden house together. Xiao Yunyin knocked on the door a few times. At first, there was no response from the people in the house. After he knocked a few more times, a voice came from the house.
A timid voice: "Who are you and why are you knocking on my door?"
Listening to this voice, it turned out to be that of a woman, who seemed to be the housewife of the family.
"I'm sorry, I'm really bothering you by taking the liberty of visiting. The two of us are from the Taishan Sect. We came here to inquire about some things. I hope you can open the door and meet me." Xiao Yunyin said politely.
"I'm just a village girl. I don't know anything. If you have any questions, you'd better ask someone else to ask." The woman in the house warned.
"Only your family knows about this, so we came here specially to make it convenient and not to shirk it. If you can do me this favor, I will definitely reward you generously. If you are worried that we are bad people,
You can dispel this concern. You must have seen the way we were wielding swords in the air just now. If we wanted to be disadvantageous to you, we would not talk politely to you here." Xiao Yunyin said sincerely.
What he said was true. If Xiao Yunyin wanted to break into the house, he could do it with just a twitch of his fingers.
The woman in the house was not a stupid village girl. After hearing these words, she hesitated and opened the door.
Hearing the sound of the door, Zhao Zheng's eyes were blurred and he stared at the crack in the door, witnessing this important moment.
The crack in the door became wider and wider, revealing the situation inside the house under the bright sunshine outside. The woman who opened the door stood behind the door, looking at Zhao Zheng and the two of them warily.
Seeing this woman's appearance, the expressions of the two people outside the door changed to varying degrees, especially Xiao Yunyin, whose changes were even more drastic, and his body also trembled greatly.
"Qing Shu!" Xiao Yunyin shouted, staring blankly at the woman in front of him. He never expected that he would actually find his long-lost wife here.
Although the woman in the room is wearing very ordinary clothes, her eyebrows and face shape are indeed exactly the same as the woman in the painting. Xiao Yunyin and Xie Qingshu have been together for so many years, and they are husband and wife, so it is naturally impossible for them to admit their mistakes.
The woman was really startled when she heard Xiao Yunyin call her that, and took a step back with a look of panic on her face.
"Qing Shu, Qing Shu, after so many years, why don't you come back to Taishan Sect to find me?" Xiao Yunyin said in silence.
"Who is Qing Shu? I have never heard of this name. You seem to have recognized the wrong person." The woman said in a panic.
"Qing Shu, don't you recognize me? I am your husband-in-law Yunyin!"
"You can eat randomly, but you can't talk nonsense. My husband is called Chen Niu, and he is not you."
"Who is Chen Niu?"
"Chen Niu is Chen Niu, he is my husband."
Hearing this, Xiao Yunyin stood stunned on the spot, his face changed drastically, and he re-examined the woman in front of him with another look. Judging from the appearance, this woman was indeed Xie Qingshu, but her temperament and gaze were completely different.
It was another person. This made him murmur in his heart, as if he was in a fog.
"Are you Xie Qingshu?" Xiao Yunyin murmured.
"I'm not." The woman said flatly.
"Then who are you?"
"My name is Chen Hua."
"Chen Hua?"
"Yes, I am Chen Hua, so please don't call me Xie Qingshu. I don't know you, and I don't want to deal with you. You'd better leave." The woman who called herself Chen Hua bravely said, and raised her hand
He put it on the door, trying to close the door.
After seven years of lovesickness, Xiao Yunyin could not be willing to be separated from his wife again. He quickly reached out to block the door and refused to let Chen Hua close the door. He talked about what happened in the past and tried to evoke his wife's memories, but that
Chen Huayou couldn't eat anything and couldn't listen to a word at all.
One of the two people wanted to close the door, and the other refused to let it go. Zhao Zheng could only stand aside and worry. Just when they were arguing, the other person rushed over.
"Who are you and why are you acting wild in front of my house!" The newcomer shouted angrily, rushing over like a whirlwind and reaching out to grab Xiao Yunyin's sleeve.
With Xiao Yunyin's ability, he could have easily pushed this person away, but he did not do so. Instead, he stepped aside and looked at this person intently.
This man was short in stature and looked very rough. He looked quite old. The muscles in his arms were bulging. He was obviously strong, but he didn't look like a warrior. On his back, he carried an old axe, far away.
There was also a large bundle of wood placed there. From the looks of it, he seemed to be a woodcutter.
As soon as she saw this person appear, Chen Hua immediately threw herself behind him with tears in her eyes and said in shock: "Damn man, you are finally back. I don't know what happened to this person. He insists on saying that I am Xie Qingshu.
He also said that he is my husband-in-law."
"Don't be afraid, madam, I'll protect you. I'll see who's farting here!" The woodcutter said very forcefully, and he took off the ax and held it tightly in his hand. Even though the ax was old,
But the cutting edge is very bright and polished very sharply.
He shook the sharp ax and threatened: "You two, get out of here. If you stay in front of my house again, don't blame the ax in my hand for being rude!"
Hearing the former wife calling the stranger "Msang Gong", Xiao Yunyin's face suddenly turned ugly, his brows furrowed deeply, and his eyes were fixed on the woodcutter. Anyone could see that there was a deep meaning in this.
Hidden story. After a while, he finally adjusted his mood and said patiently: "Brother, don't get excited. We are not bad people and we are not here to cause trouble."
"That sounds nice. I'm not here to cause trouble. Then what do you two want to do to my wife?" the woodcutter asked angrily.
"We are all members of the Taishan sect, and we actually came here to find someone. Seven years ago, the Taishan sect had a fight with other sects, and I participated in the fight with my wife Xie Qingshu. Because the fight was too chaotic, I
I got separated from my wife in the fight. After the fight, I looked around for my wife, but I couldn't find her. Three days ago, I heard from the little brother next to me that I had seen my wife here, so I came here.
." Xiao Yunyin finally regained his senses at this time and slowly revealed his purpose of coming here.
When they heard the words seven years ago, Chen Niu and the woman who called herself Chen Hua were stunned for a moment, but this time it was their turn to show that shocked expression.
When Xiao Yunyin saw Chen Hua's expression, he immediately added: "My former wife looked exactly like her. They were carved from the same mold. Even the position of the mole was exactly the same. I can do that.
I'm sure she is the same person as my wife, but I don't understand why she refuses to admit it and lies that her name is Chen Hua."
"She, her name is Chen Hua, she is not a prostitute! Get out of here and don't come to my house again!" Chen Niu shook the ax in his hand and drove Xiao Yunyin away, but his tone was no longer as tough as before. It was obvious that
Hiding something.
"Ms. sir, don't rush him away, let him finish his words." Chen Hua stopped the woodcutter, stepped forward and asked, "I want to hear what happened seven years ago in more detail.
"
Xiao Yunyin nodded and told the story of the future in more detail. He started from how he met his wife and continued until her disappearance seven years ago. At the end, he also used the method of sound transmission to tell Chen Hua
He told her about a birthmark that was located in an obscure part of her body. Only he, the father-in-law, knew the location of this birthmark.
Hearing the location of this birthmark, the look of surprise on Chen Hua's face became even more serious, and she subconsciously touched the location. It seemed that she also had such a birthmark.
After Xiao Yunyin finished speaking, he looked deeply into Chen Hua's eyes. His eyes were very complicated, with thoughts, doubts, and questions in them.
When Chen Niu saw that his wife and Xiao Yunyin were looking at each other, he couldn't help but feel angry. He swung the ax in his hand and said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense here. There is only Chen Hua here and no Xie Qingshu. Get out of here!"
"
"Ms. sir, don't be like this. What he said is probably true. I can't live in confusion all my life. I have to find a way to figure out who I was before, what I did, and why I ended up here." Chen
Hua gently grabbed her husband, slowly snatched the ax away, and placed it under the wall.
"I don't care about that, I only know that you are my wife now." Chen Niu said sadly.
"Ms. sir, don't worry, I have my own sense of proportion." Chen Hua raised her hand and gently held Chen Niu's hand, using a little force on her hand to express her feelings.
Chen Niu then nodded with a grimace.
Chen Hua looked at Xiao Yunyin and Zhao Zheng, gestured towards the door, and invited: "It's windy outside and it's not convenient to talk. You two can come in and sit down."
The two of them finally got a decent treatment, they cupped their hands and walked into the house together.
After sitting down, Chen Hua opened up the conversation and said: "At first, I thought you were talking nonsense, but after listening to your story, I found that you really had a nose and eyes. In fact, my name was not Chen.
Hua, this name came to me later. Seven years ago, for some unknown reason, I fell seriously injured in this forest. After my husband found me, he rescued me, bandaged my wounds, and
I cooked soup and made medicine. It was he who saved my life. Without him, I would have died seven years ago. But although my injury has healed, I can’t remember what happened before. Why did it happen?
Lying in the woods with serious injuries, I even forgot my own name. I couldn't remember who I was, so I had to live here temporarily. After going back and forth, I fell in love with my husband and committed myself to marry him. Although he
He is very poor, has little money, and is just a woodcutter, but he has been very kind to me over the years, and I am very grateful to him."
As she spoke, Chen Hua glanced at Chen Niu with a bitter face, smiled, then looked at Xiao Yunyin, and continued: "You said I disappeared seven years ago. This was the time when I came here seven years ago.
It matches. As for other things, you are also right. From this point of view, I may really be the Xie Qingshu you mentioned, and I was once your wife."
These words finally solved the mystery. It turned out that Xie Qingshu lost her original memory due to serious injuries after the war seven years ago, forgot who she was, and married a stranger. No wonder she has been married to a stranger these years.
There has been no news, and I have not returned to Taishan Sect to look for Xiao Yunyin. (To be continued.)
