Whoosh whoosh!
After washing the dishes, Xu Qing came out and casually swung the flexible sword. This flexible sword was called the Belt Sword.
As the name suggested, it could be used as a belt and could be pulled out when needed … It sounded good, but it was actually a toy purely for showing off. It was difficult to even get on the subway. When it first arrived, he specifically asked Qin Hao, but it couldn't pass the security check.
It was just something new.
When it was sent, it was bent into a ball. With the thought of being responsible for the quality, Xu Qing didn't ask the merchant to send it. He bought it online. It took a few days on the way, but when he opened it, it didn't bend, which showed how flexible it was.
It was good for performing martial arts, but what Xu Qing had learned from Jiang He was not the kind of martial arts that could be performed. Although he could use the Longquan sword to stab, he could not use this flexible sword. He held it in his hand and tried to find the feeling.
Jiang He glanced at him and thought about when her forty-meter sword would arrive … Oh, it wasn't as big as forty meters.
But it was really long … When it stood up, it reached a little above her shoulder.
"I'll give it to you."
"I don't like this."
"It can be used as a belt."
"Won't your pants fall when you pull it out to fight?" Jiang He took it and looked at it. It was just a piece of iron. How could it be called a sword?
"How can pants fall when there's a hollow belt … But don't take it out. It's just for fun. Just like that Miao Jian, you can play with it later."
Xu Qing couldn't play with it himself, so he decided to let Jiang He do it. She was talented in this anyway. As long as she learned a few moves, put on his armor, shoot a short video, and insert it at the end of the video, the advertising fee would be earned.
If they established a long-term cooperation, Jiang He would have a weapon rack, and it could be filled up slowly without spending money.
There was a heroine at home. He arranged a rack full of swords for her as compensation for buying a pile of books for her to read …
He wondered if she would have stars in her eyes?
Xu Qing looked at Jiang He's disdain for the soft sword, shook his head, and turned on the computer.
Xu Qing was rather serious about this advertisement. He gave the sword to Jiang He and asked her to use it as a ruler for the time being. Meanwhile, he searched for swordsmanship videos so that Jiang He could refer to them later.
"My greatsword is almost here, right?"
"Hmm, that looks much better than the flexible sword. You can hug it when you sleep."
"I don't want to hug a sword to sleep …"
Jiang He pursed his lips. He felt that Xu Qing was mocking her for seeing Chu Renmei's beauty when she first arrived. She even had to bring a sword to bathe.
She was obviously really scary … Her reaction was normal.
Jiang He used the tip of his pen to stroke his eyebrows. He furtively wrinkled his nose at Xu Qing and continued to read.
Now that she knew why Xu Qing was forcing her to read, she felt … something was moving in her heart. It was an indescribable feeling.
From the beginning, when he taught her how to conduct herself in this era, to now when he began to cultivate her ability to learn, Xu Qing seemed to have been thinking about her future …
She looked up at Xu Qing's side profile, propped up her chin with her hand, and lowered her head to point at the notebook with a pen.
"I'm very happy to know an ancient person from more than 1,200 years ago, and also … It's a wonderful feeling, so I'm willing to help you. I'll do my best to help you familiarize yourself with this world, hide yourself, and slowly integrate into it."
When they first met, Xu Qing's answer was filled with curiosity and sincerity, asking her to stay here.
"After that, after that is life. Live here and enjoy the prosperity of 1,200 years later."
On the Lanjiang Bridge, Xu Qing waved his arm, including all the bright lights in the distance, and turned his head to speak to her.
"To Xiang Yu, to this era."
At this table, separated by the cake, Xu Qing toasted with her.
"There are many bad people. If you're unlucky and meet one, you might be tricked into becoming a wife …"
"Solve the humanities, smooth out our information gap, and become a modern person …"
"Get to know this world as soon as possible, mature quickly, and be able to distinguish between gratitude and feelings, and have the ability to choose freely. That way, there won't be any problems …"
"Eventually, you'll become a modern person …"
"I'll give you an environment where you can learn with peace of mind. When you're independent, you'll still have the choice to leave or stay …"
"I hope you can learn to smile."
Learn to smile.
Very quickly, less than a year had passed.
Jiang He lowered his head and drew a smiling face on the notebook. With a few simple strokes, the corners of his mouth moved slightly.
Sometimes, Xu Qing was quite conflicted, and he was not as calm as he usually appeared.
How could she be the only one who was conflicted? What should she do when she felt guilty?
She pulled out a crumpled piece of paper from the bottom of the coffee table. It was what Xu Qing had written on the first day they met.
This person … had always been thinking about her future.
Perhaps his purpose had changed several times, but this had never changed.
After more than 1200 years, she had come to the modern era from the Kaiyuan era and met this person.
Second Mother, you can rest assured, he's very reliable.
Jiang He propped his chin on the table with his hand and gently shook it twice, humming an unknown song in a low voice. Suddenly, he turned his head to look out the window. A new moon had just risen, hanging in the corner of the night sky.
In another time and space, what was Second Mother doing? Was she counting the copper coins in her little box, or was she sewing the First Master's clothes?
Or was she also looking up at the moon?
Xu Qing heard Jiang He humming in a low voice and turned his head curiously. "What are you looking at?"
"Looking at the moon. Do you think the people of the past … have they always been living in that time?"
Xu Qing heard this and looked out the window, a little surprised at Jiang He's thoughts.
Thinking indeed had little to do with knowledge — there were also great philosophers in ancient times.
"Maybe, they lived in the past. A thousand years ago, they were looking at the moon. Now that you're also looking at the moon, maybe your thoughts are the same."
"That's great."
Jiang He sighed softly.
Looking at her, Xu Qing could not tell if she had pondered over the question after reading A Brief History of Time, or if she was simply slacking off when answering questions, so she let her thoughts run wild.
After all, looking out the window during class was the easiest state for one's thoughts to run wild.
"Second Mother must be looking at the moon too, she can feel that I'm living well now," Jiang He said after a moment of silence.
She turned her head to smile at Xu Qing, "What do you think?"
"Yes, she can definitely feel it," Xu Qing nodded.
"More than a thousand years of time …"
Jiang He looked out the window again.
The moon had been like this for thousands of years, quietly hanging in the sky, connecting two people in two time and space.
Second Mother, I'm doing well.
She retracted her gaze and started to scribble on the exercise book seriously. Today's task was completed, and tomorrow's appointment was to see Gong Ping's new fishing rod, so she had to scribble tomorrow's task in advance.
Life in modern society seemed to be like this, there was no need to worry about food and drink, and there was a lot of time to study, improve oneself, or do things that made one happy.
The past was the past, people had to look forward, her life had just begun.
There were still many years to come.
