Seven

I... I am not quite sure either

The two individuals silently gazed at each other for a long time

"I won't!" Ji Ye suddenly turned his head back, staring fiercely at Yu Ran. "I just won't! No one has taught me! I'm very stupid, and it doesn't help even if I learn. Why do you keep bothering me? I just want to sit here alone! When you all leave, my father beats me, and I haven't done anything!"

For a long time, he sighed, "You will never understand. They are not one person, nor ten people; perhaps they will be thousands. When they charge in formation, the stars will change, and even the armies of the feudal lords will retreat"

My grandfather and I live in a hotel over there. I wanted to come out and take a look, but it is always inconvenient to go out during the day

What is this? Didn't you promise? You can't go back on your word, can you? How can people from Donglu be like this?

The child indeed possesses a talent for martial arts. Today, when he aimed a shot at my chest, I had no chance to evade and had already resigned myself to death. I never expected that he could actually hold back. However, the force of the shot was too fierce; after all, it reflects a violent temperament.

"Hey, Mu Tou, why are you so down?" Yu Ran asked, "Did your father scold you again after being so harsh with you?"

Beneath the distant, broad eaves, a solitary, seemingly frail shadow stands alone in the darkness where neither the stars nor the moon can reach.

"Jiye, Jiye..." A soft and delicate voice floated in from behind.

"War God? I see you are frightened out of your wits. I heard Chang Ye say that he actually appreciates Ji Ye?"

Yuran was taken aback for a moment, "You can't read? Didn't your father teach you? I see that your family has many books..."

Ji Ye suddenly woke up, turned his head, and saw a pair of rose-red eyes looking at him, with a playful smile at the corners of petal-like lips

Do not be afraid, do not be afraid. It is alright if you make a mistake. When you go out to sea and draw a dragon to show me, we will understand.

Ji Ye suddenly stood up. He stubbornly turned his head away from Yu Ran and said, "I won't draw a dragon for you because I can't draw at all. No one has ever taught me, and I don't even know how to read!"

Inconvenient

Ji Ye was not angry, "You should go back, it is late at night and it is not safe outside"

Finally, he stopped by the clear waters of Phoenix Pool, standing there for a moment with his hands cupped around his mouth, shouting with all his might towards the opposite shore of the lake. No one could understand what he was shouting, not even he himself. The enormous shadow of the clock tower under the moonlight was cast upon him, and the sound of the bell from the Confucian Temple began to ring, ultimately drowning out his cries.

The sounds inside gradually diminished, until only the faint sound of laughter remained, and there were vague discussions about future matters.

Outdoors, the brilliance of the stars and moon cascades down, creating a rare tranquility. The countless houses seem to have a layer of mercury flowing over their rooftops

"Drawing a Dragon..." Ji Ye lowered his head and said, "I was just speaking casually"

I see, "Jiye nodded earnestly, "It's quite good-looking."

"Are you really going to teach me to read?" Ji Ye rubbed his nose vigorously, raised his head, and said, "I want to learn"

Yuran? He recognized that it was the girl who visited during the day, "How did you end up here?"

Ji Ye shook his head, "Actually, he doesn't often scold me; he doesn't care about me. Does your father care about you?"

You are indeed thoughtful. The wife had nothing more to say, and she linked her arm with his as they both snuggled under the covers

I have never seen him; he has just died. Aren't you cold sitting here

He stood for a long time before turning around, and saw a pair of crystal-clear, bare feet on the ridge of the clock tower. The girl stood there, looking at him somewhat shyly, her skirt fluttering gently in the wind

He walked around, silently carrying a gun in the garden, without even the notice of Ji Qianzheng inside the house. Ji Ye's footsteps were like those of a stealthy cat; Ji Qianzheng always said that they were not the footsteps of an upright person. In fact, there is no difference between the footsteps of a fierce tiger and those of a cat, except that Ji Qianzheng had never seen a fierce tiger

Ji Ye felt the warmth in her palm, and her hand trembled slightly. Suddenly, he withdrew his hand entirely and turned to run away. He gazed at the deep, dark night sky, where countless stars were twinkling. He ran desperately along the interconnected walls, crossing the rooftops of the courtyard, moving swiftly as if afraid of being caught by that girl with golden hair and red eyes

Yuran felt a bit scared; she wanted to escape. However, when she looked up and saw Ji Ye's eyes, she did not feel that he was truly angry. He was merely trying hard to widen his eyes, those bright, pitch-black eyes.

"In battle, brothers stand together," Ji Qianzheng said with a smile, "Although Ye Er may not be a talent of great potential, if he can master some martial arts, he can protect Chang Ye in the future when he becomes a great figure, and follow him as a deputy general or something similar, which would also be beneficial for Chang Ye"

"It was you who insisted on teaching him marksmanship," the wife said resentfully. "Now that he has practiced marksmanship, his dark eyes are even more fierce. Just a glance from him scares me quite a bit. A son of a concubine, and yet you teach him better than Chang Ye. Is this not a case of favoritism?"

What is unsafe? In the forests of our Ningzhou, if you travel, you will often come across the villages of our feathered tribe. On the nights when the moonlight is at its best, we all wear dresses like white gauze and walk hand in hand under the moonlight. We do not light fires; the moonlight shines on our skirts, making them appear transparent, like the wings of a dragonfly. It is said that when girls walk like this, the radiance of the Moon Goddess will shine upon the lightest girl, and she will soar into the sky in the gaze of everyone, going to the palace of the gods. Unfortunately, I have never seen it, but Yu Ran sighed, "It was truly beautiful then, everyone was beautiful." It is said that when girls walk like this, the radiance of the Moon Goddess will shine upon the lightest girl, and she will soar into the sky in the gaze of everyone, going to the palace of the gods. Unfortunately, I have never seen it, but Yu Ran sighed, "It was truly beautiful then, everyone was beautiful."

He stood up silently, while Yu Ran tilted her head to look at him for a long, long time

Yuran widened her eyes, picked up the strand of light golden hair by her neck, "Look at the color of my eyes, and my hair. How could I dare to go out during the day? I wore a hood all the way here, and sometimes I really wished I could throw off the hat and ride with my hair flowing. But Grandpa wouldn't allow it. I hate it so much."

It is not cold; I am not very afraid of the cold. I was just thinking of going to practice shooting, but now I do not want to anymore, and I do not want to sleep either

Ji Ye understood and awkwardly scratched his neck, "You should go back, this is not Ningzhou, but Nanhuai. There will be thieves at night, they rob on the streets with knives. I heard that many places are experiencing famine, and those people come to Wanzhou but still cannot find food, so they can only turn to theft"

Yuran hesitated for a moment, then reached out and tugged at his hand, her finger tapping lightly in his palm. "Let me teach you, the script of the Eastern Continent is actually not as difficult to learn as the divine script of our Feather Clan."

Sigh! You should go to bed earlier. I still think we should report this to the Lord of the Guard," the wife complained while she fumbled to remove the blue satin robe from Ji Qian, "What on earth is going on? Am I not allowed to know? You've been frowning all night. If it really is some malicious person, with so many people guarding this vast South Huai City, are we really afraid he would commit a crime? But if he causes trouble that involves you, it could mean we won't even be able to protect our family.

In the stillness of the deep night, thousands of households have already fallen asleep. In the main room of the Ji residence, a few oil candles are still lit, and Ji Qian is sitting at the table, silently staring at the candle tears as they drip and congeal one by one

Ji Ye watched as she lifted the hem of her white dress, standing at the edge of the rooftop. A gentle breeze lifted the white silk ribbon in her golden hair, making her appear ethereal. He suddenly noticed that Yu Ran was barefoot, her almost translucent feet lightly touching the grayish-blue tiles, delicately poised as if she might take flight at any moment

Then can you write your own name

Reaching the edge of the wall, Ji Ye looked around and moved several large stones to build a staircase, quietly climbing up to the top of the wall. He walked silently along the wall, the vast Nanhuai City sleeping beneath his feet. Ji Ye simply walked back and forth like this, again and again, completely unaware of where he was headed.

"Then let's talk and have some fun, I want to hear about dragons," Yuran said, "I sneaked out and have to wait until Grandpa falls asleep before I can go back, otherwise it would be terrible"

Finally, Ji Ye sat on the roof of her own house, hugging her legs and resting her head on her knees, as if she were about to fall asleep in the slightly chilly night breeze

"Do not ask anymore," Ji Qianzheng's voice was rarely cold and hard, "You should also know that the world is vast, and some matters are absolutely not something we can manage. I am already very pleased that he can withdraw, do not mention this matter again, and do not speak of it to anyone!"

The faint sounds within the room became inaudible, and Ji Ye raised his head to gaze at the fierce Tiger Howl spear in his arms, its blade so cold that it made his heart tremble. He looked at the small pine forest behind the house, then at his northern wing room and the stone-paved yard filled with lush green grass, yet he did not know where he should go.

Then why do you have to teach Ji Ye? Let him be with his obstinate nature.

They are the apostles of the God of War," his face appeared inexplicably strange under the light, "they truly are!

Yuran was momentarily taken aback, "If only everyone were as wooden-headed as you."

Ji Qian let out a long sigh, "It is I who have invested my efforts in Chang Ye. Ye Er's practice of the Poison | Dragon style is inherently violent, not the balanced and composed swordsmanship. That is why his progress surpasses that of Chang Ye. The Great Qi swordsmanship that I teach Chang Ye is the pinnacle of the Ji family's martial arts; it is difficult to master, but the achievements that follow will certainly exceed those of Ye Er. Moreover, as Chang Ye studies literature and practices martial arts, it is not difficult for him to achieve tenfold or even a hundredfold greater accomplishments than Ye Er. A warrior merely defends against a few enemies, while Chang Ye possesses the talent to govern a nation; they cannot be compared."

Ji Ye shook her head
