After a simple breakfast, Su Lin led them on the streets. Feng Shang became more lively under the clear sky. Xiaobei followed Feng Shang and looked around. Gu Zeyan glanced at Xiao Qingya from time to time and moved away without leaving a trace. However, Xiao Qingya had started to distance herself from him since she left last night. Although she saw his dazed appearance this morning, she had been ignoring him and even deliberately distancing herself from him, making him somewhat confused.
"Brother Su, where are we going today?”Seeing that Xiao Qingya was ignoring him, Gu Zeyan rubbed his nose and asked Su Lin.
"Today, we're going to visit Skinny West Lake." Su Lin held Su Yan's hand and said to Gu Zeyan.
"There are a total of twenty-four scenic spots in this Skinny West Lake. They are the Imperial Pier, Five Pavilion Bridge, West Garden, Yechun Garden, Lvyang Village, Juandongtian Cave, West Garden Winding Water, Four Bridge Misty Rain, Hongqiao, Changdi Spring Willow, Leaf Garden, Xu Garden, Changchun Ridge, Guqin Room, Muxi Bookstore, Chess Room, Moon View, Plum Ridge Spring Deep, Lake Grass Hall, Green Shade Pavilion, Blowing Terrace, Shuiyun Shenggai, Lianxing Temple, Fu Village, Five Pavilion Bridge, White Pagoda Clear Clouds.”Su Lin introduced them as he led the way.
"Many scholars have taken a fancy to this place, and the stone buildings have been added to it. This is also the most attractive part of Skinny West Lake. Therefore, it is called Penglai on the Lake."
"Not far ahead is the most famous rainbow bridge. The scenery of the rainbow bridge is beautiful, and it has attracted many scholars to come here to point out the country and compare poems.
If the slender West Lake was compared to a classical beauty, it was Hongqiao that unveiled her veil. Let us start from Hongqiao and enjoy the beautiful scenery of 'two banks of flowers and willows all depend on the water, all the way to the mountain'.”Su Lin led everyone onto the rainbow bridge and told them about its origin.
"Brother Su, Yan 'er seems to be in a hurry to go somewhere else to play. We can enjoy it ourselves. We'll meet here in six hours.”Xiao Qingya did not forget that she came out today to matchmake the Su brothers and said considerately.
"Then, I won't disturb the two of you anymore.”Su Lin smiled at them and was pulled by Su Yan to the twenty-fourth bridge.
"Brother, hurry up, hurry up." Su Yan pulled Su Lin and ran forward impatiently.
"Yan 'er, slow down." When Su Lin saw that Su Yan was so happy, his face unconsciously relaxed. He hoped that he could stop at this moment forever.
"Brother Lin, I haven't been here before. Look, it's so beautiful over there.”Su Yan called out happily like a little monkey.
"Yan 'er, do you like it here?" Su Lin thought that if he liked it, he would bring him here every time.
"I like it. As long as Brother Lin takes me to a place, I like it.”After saying this, Su Yan ran towards the Ten Thousand Gardens.
"Yan 'er, can I take it that you're confessing to me?”Su Lin laughed at himself. How could that be possible? He was just deceiving himself.
On the other side, Xiao Qingya and Gu Zeyan had sent Feng Shang and Xiao Bei, who could not stand the loneliness, out to play. Baili Qingkong naturally followed Feng Shang, wanting to give Gu and Xiao a chance to be alone, hoping to make some progress. Xiao Bei had already pulled Shui Shi away, but they did not know that their separation had almost caused Xiao Qingya to lose her life.
"Xiaobei, slow down." Shui Shi's eyes were filled with adoration as he said.
"Yes yes yes, big brother Shui Shi." Xiao Bei ran back to Shui Shi.
"Qingya, let's go over there and take a look.”Seeing that only he and Xiao Qingya were left, Gu Zeyan couldn't help but look around. Then, he pointed at the Four Misty Rain Bridges and said.
"Alright." Xiao Qingya understood that everyone else could leave but he could not because he had promised not to let Gu Zeyan get hurt.
The two of them passed through Xu Garden and came to a building in the east. Standing on this building, they looked at the four bridges of different colors and shapes, Chunbo Bridge, Dahong Bridge, Changchun Bridge, and Lotus Bridge. In the misty rain, the four bridges were far and near, thick and light, high and low. The two of them could not help but feel relaxed and happy. The distance between them from before also quietly disappeared in this scenery.
"Qingya, do you like this place?" Gu Zeyan thought that if he liked it, he would bring him here to see the beautiful scenery in the future. However, he did not know that this was the only time they would enjoy the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan together.
"Who doesn't like beautiful scenery? The beautiful scenery on a good day can do nothing to the sky." Xiao Qingya said with a hint of sadness.
" Qingya--" Gu Zeyan was stunned by his rare sadness. He didn't know what to say for a moment. He wanted to comfort him, but he found that he was at a loss for words.
"Who is it?" Xiao Qingya suddenly stopped and frowned. She immediately turned around and looked around vigilantly. In an instant, the jade flute on her waist had already moved to her hand. The quiet corridor was no longer peaceful like before, but instead filled with a faint murderous intent.
"Come out for this king." Gu Zeyan also stopped in his tracks and said sternly. His originally evil eyes had turned cold at this moment. He reached out and pulled Xiao Qingya, who was a little tense, behind him to protect her. His good mood of swimming with Qingya was also wiped away by this dismal scene.
As soon as Gu Zeyan's voice fell, two black shadows fell from the roof of the pavilion and stabbed at Gu Zeyan with their swords. Xiao Qingya's jade flute moved lightly and gently brushed past. The sharp edge that was originally a fatal sword instantly turned the danger into safety. The assassin was brought forward. The jade flute in Qing Ya's hand moved along the sword and moved to the assassin's face. It was as if the assassin himself had bumped into him. It was so natural.
However, Xiao Qingya smiled faintly, causing the confused assassin to be stunned. Xiao Qingya's jade flute unceremoniously met the attack, and a black shadow flew backwards, unconscious.
The other black shadow used the flexibility of his wrist to execute the Lotus Sword, dazzling people. Gu Zeyan only dodged but did not attack head-on. Gu Zeyan easily dodged the sword attack from the front, raised his leg and kicked the sword in the other person's hand away. He hit his chest with his palm and died on the spot.
Just as the two of them stood still, two more black shadows suddenly shot up from the lake and rose from the bottom of the pavilion. One of them stretched out his sword and stabbed at Gu Zeyan, who had his back facing him. The cold light was dazzling, and what was even more glaring was the touch of dark blue on the cold light. Poison, a sword dipped in poison. Gu Zeyan seemed to have sensed something and turned around to see the cold sword already in front of his face. Just as he was about to dodge, Xiao Qingya circulated her energy to dodge another killing move from Black. Ignoring the fact that she had an opening, she rushed straight at Gu Zeyan.
"Qingya!" Gu Zeyan took it and turned around. The sword had just stabbed into Xiao Qingya's left shoulder. Gu Zeyan hugged Xiao Qingya tightly and kicked that person away. The killing intent in his eyes was already thick.
"Young Master!" Feng Shang shouted. He saw that they were too far away from Gu Zeyan and the others, so he pulled Baili Qingkong to look for them anxiously. He had just found them when he saw this scene.
Gu Zeyan hugged Xiao Qingya tightly as he dodged left and right. Baili Qingkong and Feng Shang appeared in front of Gu Xiao and Feng Shang at this moment and flew into the battle, replacing Gu Zeyan and Xiao Qingya.
"Qingya, Qingya, are you alright?”Gu Zeyan was half relieved when he saw Baili Qingkong coming over. He was most worried about Xiao Qingya's injury. He hugged Xiao Qingya tightly and asked worriedly.
"I-I'm fine." Xiao Qingya stood up shakily, wanting to stand up and protect Gu Zeyan. She didn't want him to be injured and leave a flaw on his flawless body. With just a single movement, he had touched the wound, causing him to frown. His face was pale and cold sweat dripped down his forehead.
"Let them come. Don't move." Gu Zeyan saw Xiao Qingya move and the wound on her left shoulder oozed bright red blood that had turned black. He was a little anxious and moved, but also a little heartbroken.
"You dare to hurt my young master? You're courting death!" When Feng Shang saw this, the killing intent in his eyes grew even stronger.
