Chapter 268: Concentric Ring
Nangong Qingtian walked to the front of the inn, always feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't say anything. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe most important thing is that it's just dark, why is the inn closed?
He went up and knocked on the door, and waited a long time for someone to open it. The door was opened by a little old man in a brocade robe who looked very rich. The old man looked at Nangong Qingtian and asked uncertainly, "Is there something wrong with you?"
Nangong Qingtian was stunned for a moment, yes, what was the matter with him? He just remembered the scene from thirty years ago and wanted to revisit the old place, but it seemed a little unkind for him to say this. Nangong Qingtian thought for a while and said, "Shopkeeper, I want to stay in the hotel, I don't know if there are any vacant rooms?"
The shopkeeper's empty room?
The little old man raised his eyes slightly and glanced in the direction of the plaque, with a look of confusion, "The guest is in the wrong place, right?
Nangong Qingtian didn't expect it, he took two steps back and looked up at the plaque, which had two big characters written on it, "Yunfu", not the "Yuelan Inn" in his memory. "How so? Thirty years ago, this was an inn. ”
"Thirty years ago?" the little old man looked at Nangong Qingtian and narrowed his eyes slightly, "The guest is not from Zhantian Palace, right?" he stroked his beard, and his eyes flashed with a clear look, "Thirty years ago, this was indeed an inn, called 'Yuelan Inn', which is also a time-honored brand." However, fifteen years ago, Yuelan Inn was acquired by Lingyun Pavilion and became a transaction for Lingyun Pavilion. My pavilion master changed this place into a mansion, so that the people in the pavilion can have a place to stay when they get to Mochen Peak. The old man and I were left here to guard the door of this 'Cloud Mansion' and entertain the brothers who came and went. The little old man saw that Nangong Qingtian was yearning for the "Yuelan Inn", so he invited him with a smile, "Do you want to come into the house to sit?"
Nangong Qingtian was very grateful to the old man for his kindness, but he was still interested, not to mention that as the emperor of Nanchu, there was a certain danger in entering a stranger's house alone, so he politely declined the old man and turned away.
The old man looked at Nangong Qingtian's departing back and shook his head, "Why force it if you have no fate? He slowly closed the door.
The winter in Cham Tian Gong is very long, and it snows for two-thirds of the days, the sky is white, and the earth is white, white and cold, and white and clean.
Nangong Qingtian didn't go far before it began to snow. Snow falls on the ice bridge, giving this crystalline version of the arched bridge a thin coat. Nangong Qingye raised his hand to catch a snowflake, and the small snowflake melted in his palm, bringing a slight chill. He glanced at the empty streets, with few pedestrians. It turns out that fate has always been pitiful, and if you miss it, you miss it, and you can't get it back even if you work hard and persistently.
Su Jinling walked out of the courtyard with two pots of wine and a plate of side dishes, and at a glance saw the person sitting with his back to her. The man was wearing a black brocade robe, and the bottom of the brocade robe was embroidered with a circle of silver patterns, and when you looked closely, you would find that they were two entangled dragons, majestic and luxurious. The man sat in the pavilion, holding a few bamboo slips in his hand, and some were scattered on the table, not knowing what he was studying.
Su Jinling walked to his side, put the wine and food on the stone table, sat down opposite the man, and looked at him with a smile on his chin with one hand, "Alas, they are all gone, and this courtyard has become empty all of a sudden, and there is no anger at all." You don't come to talk to me, I'm going to be bored to death every day, it's better to follow them into the Youming Cave Mansion, it's more fun to fight monsters and kill people!"
"You can go now. The man on the other side looked up at her and said with a smile. His voice is very good, somewhat similar to the little boy, but it is deeper and more ethereal, and it is intoxicating when it reaches the ears.
Su Jinling staggered Erlang's legs, stretched out his fingers lightly, took away the bamboo slips in his hand, raised his eyebrows at him in a charming manner, and hooked his fingers with the bamboo slips, "Everyone says that the two of us are the most matched, one is an emperor, and the other is a mother, what do you think?"
"I am a family man, I have a wife and a daughter, I live a happy life, and I have no plans to take a concubine. The man skillfully recaptured the bamboo slip and continued to watch, "What's more, Xiaoli's posture as a master and mother is no less than that of any other person, and it is enough for the Murong family to have her." ”
Su Jinling rolled her eyes boringly, "You're so boring, it's rare that Xiaoli can spend so much time with you, it's really embarrassing for my little sister!" Su Jinling's eyes turned and smiled, "Yu, that Nine Princes also went to the Netherworld Trial." Do you say, will he meet Xiao Li? When the time comes, will Xiao Li choose to go back with him, or stay with you? I think the former is big, after all, those two little guys are the bloodline of the Nine Kings Mansion!"
The person opposite was Murong Yu, the head of the Murong clan, the first family in the world, and his identity was no less than that of the emperor of the Four Kingdoms.
Murong Yu listened to Su Jinling's words, and his emotions did not fluctuate much, but he said lightly, "If Xiaoli wants to leave, I will never stop her, and in the same way, I will not turn her away if she wants to come back." ”
"Yu, how can you be so gentle, so that I will think that you are really in love with Xiaoli. Su Jinling said with a smile.
"So what?" Murong Yu's eyes still didn't leave the bamboo slip, "She was originally my wife. ”
When he said this, Su Jinling was stunned for a moment, and then resumed his smile, "Also, Xiaoli is really likable." No wonder so many people like her, even I can't bear to hurt her. She paused for a moment before continuing, "However, if Xiaoli is really gone. Yu, take me as your wife. ”
This time Murong Yu was no longer calm, he raised his head and looked at Su Jinling in surprise, not knowing how she could say such a thing, "Senior sister, you don't like me again." Why do you want to marry into the Murong family?"
"This love, love, it's all played by little girls, my sister is probably old and wants a home. Su Jinling said lightly, but there was endless reluctance in her eyes.
Murong Yu finally put down the bamboo slip in his hand and began to look at the person in front of him, "Senior sister, if you want to go to him, I can help you." "His words are not empty words and white teeth, and it is not difficult for the head of the Murong family to find someone.
But Su Jinling shook his head, "I let him go in the first place, and now I find it back, what is this called? Besides, he will never appear in front of me again for the rest of his life." Every time I think of him, I always think back to the mistakes I have made. I would question myself -- do people like me deserve to be happy? I waited for my punishment every day, day after day, year after year. The longer I lived, the more uneasy I felt in my heart. I'm a sinner after all. ”
"If I were you, maybe I would do better. Murong Yu comforted, "Senior sister, among those things back then, you were the one who hurt the most. Those people just deserve it, and it's been so long, so why should you embarrass yourself?"
Su Jinling shook her head, "It's not that I'm embarrassed, it's just uneasy." Yu, Master didn't tell us about medical skills back then, but first talked about medical ethics. He said that our hands exist to save people, and even if we don't save them when we die, we shouldn't use medical skills to harm people. She looked at her hands and smiled bitterly, "But I have left these hands stained with blood, one hundred and thirty-eight lives." When I dream back in the middle of the night, I will be awakened by my terrible face, how I did it at that time, even eight or nine years old! I am a demon. Su Jinling shed tears line by line as she spoke.
At this time, Murong Yu didn't know what to say. They all knew that Su Jinling was really crazy during that time, and she was so crazy that she had only one thought in her heart, and that was to kill. Gongsun Zhan had to tie her to the bed for a whole year before he could get her sanity back. Su Jinling, who regained her senses, did not forget the wrong things she did when she went crazy, so she refused to forgive herself for so many years. However, no matter how remorseful she was, she could no longer resurrect those innocent lives.
Murong Yu sighed, picked up the wine jug and poured a glass for Su Jinling and himself, "It's been a long time since there has been such a quiet night. Senior sister, let's get drunk tonight. ”
Su Jinling didn't disappoint him, and raised his glass to touch him. Murong Yu raised his head and drank it all, but happened to see a meteor slipping down in the sky. Murong Yu was shocked, and when he stood up, his sleeve accidentally brought the bamboo slips scattered on the table to the ground.
Su Jinling sighed, "How old did you say you are, why are you still panicking like when you were a child?"
Murong Yu frowned and looked at the messy bamboo slips on the ground, Su Jinling was also affected by his nervousness, she lowered her head and looked at the bamboo slips on the ground, and suddenly gasped, she turned to Murong Yu and took a look, sure enough, if this is a dead hexagram according to the hexagram, "What were you thinking about just now?" The two of them are both from the Nine Deaths Valley, and they don't know anything about metaphysics. Su Jinling naturally understands the hexagram, this hexagram is lifeless, and it will definitely die, and this is a clever hexagram, it can be described as a heavenly opportunity, it depends on who Murong Yu was thinking when he touched the bamboo slip.
Murong Yu sat down on the stone bench, who was he thinking about just now? He saw the meteor slipping down, and his heart trembled unconsciously, he was afraid that something had happened to the little boy, and he wanted to take a closer look at the astrology, but he didn't expect it......
His silence had already given Su Jinling an answer, and her heart was not at ease, "Impossible, it can't be that there must be something wrong with this hexagram." She reached for the bamboo slips. "No, she ...... the wind"
At this moment, two plum petals floated from nowhere and landed on the bamboo slips. Su Jinling and Murong Yu's eyes lit up at the same time, but these two superimposed plum petals gave life to the hexagram, "Death first, then life, what's going on?"
Murong Lingfeng didn't know how long she had been asleep, and it wasn't until she felt something furry on her face that she waved her hand away. She frowned and opened her eyes, greeted by a wooden ceiling. The little boy's head was still a little unconscious, and he looked at the ceiling for a long time before he remembered that he seemed to have set up a death battle to kill the two fierce beasts of gluttony and chaos. With the help of the Death Array and the Ming Hong Knife, she did kill all the two fierce beasts, but she herself couldn't withstand the devouring of the Death Array, and her soul flew away. Murong Lingfeng's brain couldn't turn even more, how could she still be conscious when she was all gone? Could it be that her life was really so hard, and she didn't even die like this?
By the way, what about Yun Mo? Murong Lingfeng was suddenly shocked in her heart, she remembered that Yun Mo also rushed into the death formation at that time, and wanted to live and die with her, if she didn't die, what would happen to Yun Mo? Murong Lingfeng struggled to sit up and go to find Yun Mo, but heard a hoarse voice in his ear, "He's beside you." The two of you are still holding hands, but you don't react at all, how bad do you say your sensitivity is?"
Murong Lingfeng looked at his right hand when he heard this, and sure enough, Yun Mo was beside her, holding her hand and falling asleep. The little boy looked at his sleeping face and admired it for a long time, and then he remembered, who was talking just now?
She turned around and looked at her left hand side, Bai Ze was lying on the side of the bed and looked at her helplessly, "Although we have known each other for a long time, I won't bother with you, but isn't it a little bad for you to ignore me like this?"
Murong Ling sat up suddenly, and looked at Bai Ze in surprise, "Aren't you locked up, why are you here?"
Bai Ze twitched his eyelids, looking very tired, "I said that only you can unlock the seal, and since you are here, the seal will naturally be unlocked." I finally left that dark place. ”
"Then what is my situation now?" Murong Lingfeng asked tentatively, "Are we still alive?"
Bai Ze smiled, it knew what she was worried about, "Everything is fine, you won't be able to die for a while." Do you remember what I told you? Actually, your master's speculation is a little wrong, your body really can't bear your soul, but you have been soaked in the spiritual sea for so many years, and your physique has changed somewhat, so this is not its limit. Your biggest problem is that your life is running out. You are destined to live less than twenty years old, and this cannot be cracked unless someone is willing to give you their lifespan. ”
Speaking of which, how could the little boy still not understand, she turned her head to look at Yun Mo's peaceful sleeping face, "What did you do?"
"Look at what you're wearing on your left ring finger. Bai Ze reminded.
Murong Lingfeng looked down and saw that a strangely shaped ring had been put on the ring finger of his left hand at some point. The ring is broken, and its notch is not as usual, but has a pronounced curvature. Under Bai Ze's reminder, she found that Yun Mo also had a ring on his hand that was exactly the same as hers, but the gap was reversed.
"This is the Concentric Ring, one of the ten major artifacts. After confessing to the Lord with one heart, the two of them have one life from then on, and life and death will not be separated. ”
