Xuanjian Xianzu

Chapter 158

"In August, Boring Jinmen went south again, slaughtered Lixia County, the people of the county either closed their doors and died, or lost their families and died. In the city, die."

After Li Jingtian picked up his pen to write, he wrote down the tragedies of thousands of families in a few tens of minutes, dipped in the ink, and then continued to write:
"Gongzifeng's wives were all slaughtered, and his eyes were about to split with anger. He drove the wind to the east, saw the man from the Jinmen in the distance, and shot him."

"aunt!"

Li Xuanling's two sons and daughters entered the yard laughing, Li Qinghong was the eldest sister, the girl grew up fast, and now she had reached Li Jingtian's waist, her hair was tied up with long hair, she was lively, she broke into the yard with a smile.

The second son, Li Yuanyun, was much quieter, following behind his sister cautiously, and saluted Li Jingtian respectfully, but Li Qinghong had already sat at the table, staring at her clothes.

The two children were just six or seven years old, not yet old enough to go down the mountain. They often went to Li Jingtian's place on weekdays to chat with this aunt and ask for snacks. After school, I wandered around, calling Brother Yuanjiao from time to time, and came to Li Jingtian when I was tired from playing.

Li Jingtian put down his pen, covered the unfinished book on the table, and hugged Li Qinghong with a smile, just then there were footsteps in front of the door, and a soft voice sounded.

"Yuan Jiao pays homage to aunt."

In front of the door came a boy in black, with long hair tied up, a sword tied around his waist, and bright eyes. He looked at Li Jingtian. Li Yuanjiao went up the mountain and remembered his mother, Mu Yalu, and often came to visit Li Jingtian. , take some books from her to read.

"Come and sit."

Li Jingtian responded with a smile, seeing that the three children were quite harmonious, he felt at ease immediately, and said to Li Yuanjiao:

"Where's your father?"

Speaking of Li Xuanxuan, Li Yuanjiao lowered his eyes and replied sullenly:

"If he's not dealing with affairs at the foot of the mountain, he's practicing in seclusion. He's always been going to these two places. Where else can he go?"

Li Jingtian was stunned, quickly rubbed his head, and replied:

"Your father is in charge of a huge family, so it's difficult for you to always take care of your mother and son...don't be angry with him."

"Jiao'er dare not."

Li Yuanjiao nodded quickly and kept silent, but secretly said in his heart:
"Mother said that! My aunt said that too! It's not like I can't see it... Brother Xiu can take care of himself every day, but he can't take care of my mother and child."

Eldest brother Li Yuanxiu is quiet and gentle, Li Yuanjiao has a good relationship with him, but these complaints made him feel uncomfortable, he pursed his lips and kept silent, Li Jingtian saw it and wanted to persuade him, but two people came from outside the door. There was a loud knock on the door.

Li Tongya shook his robes, stepped into the door, followed by Li Xuanling in leather armor and Li Xuanxuan in long robes, who immediately frightened the children in the room, stood up again and again, and spoke in one go road:

"Second Uncle!/Father!"

"Ah."

Li Tongya responded with a smile. He broke through the eighth level of Qi training on a whim a few months ago. It was a real surprise. It made him very happy in the past two months. He saw the cheerful appearance of the child again. The face is also beaming.

"Has Xuan Feng not left the customs yet?"

"Never."

After Li Xuanfeng buried his wife, he honestly went up to the mountain for retreat, and no longer went out. He was much more active in cultivation than before, and now he has been in retreat for more than two years.

Li Tongya stroked his beard, and was quite pleased with the child's change. As an elder in the family, he always takes a long-term perspective.

"If it wasn't for killing a child in the county, this lesson would be considered a good thing... Tell this child to calm down and practice with peace of mind."

Looking at the stiff children, Li Tongya calculated the time, and said to Li Xuanxuan:

"Call Yuanxiu up the mountain...it's time, if you drag it on, I'm afraid it will delay the child."

The two brothers looked at each other, and naturally understood what Li Tongya was talking about. Li Xuanxuan nodded, and immediately a clan soldier went down the mountain to call Li Yuanxiu. The child is now 14 years old, and he is helping with some affairs at the foot of the mountain.

Li Tongya held a tea bowl on the top and drank slowly, staring at the children below, his eyes stopped on Li Yuanjiao who was dressed in black, and thought to himself:

"Several children are considered smart. Under Ling'er, Yuanyun is a boy, but Xuanxuan has many heirs... There are four or five out of concubines. You can choose one to adopt under Jing'er, preferably a Lingqiao child. , then it must be Yuanjiao."

"However, this is an important matter. We should first look at the child's talent and temperament."

After thinking for a while, Li Yuanxiu has already hurried to the front of the house. The boy's eyes are still pretty, he is wearing a white goose feather cape, he is quiet and polite, smiling gently, holding a blue long sword in his hand, he is quite dignified .

"Meet the elders!"

Li Yuanxiu's voice was sonorous and powerful, Li Yuanjiao's children all stood up when they saw him, looking at him expectantly, eager to rush up and hug him.

Li Tongya nodded slightly, and Li Xuanxuan grinned even more. He was very satisfied with this elder brother of the fourth generation. Li Yuanxiu was considered excellent in terms of bearing, appearance, handling and talent, and his brothers and sisters loved him. Can withstand the girder.

Everyone was seated, and several children stood in the middle of the courtyard with their hands tied, hiding behind Li Yuanxiu. Li Xuanxuan glanced at the brothers and sisters around him, and said softly to the children below:
"It's rare for everyone to get together today, and the second uncle is also out of the customs. Don't be cautious, you children, come forward."

Li Tongya glanced at the long sword on Li Yuanxiu's waist, and said softly:

"How is the practice of the sword formula? Have you ever read the "Xuan Shui Jian Jue" thoroughly?"

"Back to Second Uncle, Yuanxiu started learning swords at the age of seven, and now it has been six years, with "Xuan Shui Jian Jue" memorized in his heart, he has learned the sword light."

"good."

Li Tongya nodded and replied:

"Tomorrow you will go to Meichi Mountain Cave Mansion, and I will teach you how to use swordsmanship."

Li Xuanxuan was overjoyed. Everyone in Wangyue Lake knew that Li Tongya's swordsmanship was superb, and it was great to learn his swordsmanship. Li Yuanxiu nodded repeatedly, and the Yuanqing generation looked over enviously. Li Tongya smiled and looked at the children. explained:

"It's the same with you. Whoever cultivates the sword light before the age of 15 will come to Meichi Mountain Cave to find me."

After saying that, he nodded to Li Xuanxuan, got up and went out, Li Jingtian followed suit, the two brothers Li Xuanling and Li Xuanxuan looked at each other, Li Xuanling said softly:

"Let's take the children to the backyard, Yuanxiu, Yuanjiao, Yuanyun... As for Qinghong..."

"Go together."

Li Xuanxuan thought for a moment, and Li Jingtian's face suddenly appeared in his mind, remembering the confused and helpless look in his eyes when he asked her if she wanted to marry Chen Donghe, his heart tightened, and he gritted his teeth and said in a low voice:

"Go all together! If Father Zhong asks, I'll explain."
