Chapter 4 (5)
Long after Chi Qianxi left, Xin Ziling, who was sitting at the table, had already made up her mind. She rubbed the hairpin that Chi Qianxi gave her with her hand, thinking about what Zhongwen said. Zhongwen is right, she can't repay Chi Qianxi's kindness to her, long pain is better than short pain, for Chi Qianxi's sake she still left. But why was it a little sad to think about leaving her?
The next day, Xin Ziling, who had not slept all night, covered the packed baggage with a quilt and walked around the yard, thinking of seeing Chi Qianxi again, until the dew drops on the flowers in the courtyard were all steamed by the sun, and she did not see Chi Qianxi. Thinking that he might have slept late last night and returned to the house before he got up, he unconsciously fell asleep on the table in a drowsy state, and it wasn't until more than half of the hour that Xin Ziling woke up, and then went to Chi Qianxi's place. I saw two attendants tidying up in the house, and I thought that I hadn't seen Chi Qianxi all day.
Last night, Chi Qianxi sat quietly for a moment and then left. When she left, she gently closed the door, and seemed to ask something she didn't hear clearly. Probably because I felt that I had changed a little bit when I saw her this time, and I wanted to make her happy every hour of the day. Oh, yes...... She was always unhappy when she learned who she was, and she was sad when she remembered her mother.
The mind drifted far away...... Some time ago, when she was in the woods, she put her grievances and vulnerabilities in front of Mu Dinghua, in exchange for a little comfort from him. She had dissected herself that day to show him her wounds and her heart, but she might not have been anything to him. However, he knew that he was the daughter of Qingmutian, so why did he want to save her? His heart was too deep for her to see. Perhaps, with a little more effort, she can see the heart that is as deep as a sinking pool a little more clearly.
When she was a child, she didn't know why there was some movement in the yard, and it seemed that she deliberately chose this moment when she should sleep soundly. Xin Ziling sat quietly in the room without candlelight, listening to the movement in the courtyard for a long time without stopping, until the sound outside did not settle until the sound outside. Weighing the heavy burden, he thought that when she came back to return Chi Qianxi's money, he must have forgotten about her. She was nothing but a coincidence to him, a coincidence that he had taken her captive because of some minor transgressions between her and him, and it was only a coincidence that the two of them had given birth to some minor things. Thinking about it now, at first he may have thought it was fun and interesting, but because of the more than 2,000 years of waiting and care, he had some different feelings for her. But at that time, she was a little mouse, and he was a sleeping dragon, and the starting point of this relationship was too fragile to withstand anything.
Xin Ziling still didn't think deeply about it, and the more than 2,000 years she spent with him day and night may not be meaningless.
She kept her voice as low as she could, and opened the door softly.
In front of me, a fire phoenix tree appeared out of thin air in a courtyard of Nuoda, the crown of the tree was stretched horizontally, the branches were drooping, dense and broad, and the dragon scale tree on the opposite side reflected each other. The trees are full of bright red phoenix flowers, which look like a cluster of feathers of a fiery phoenix at a glance, and the fiery red is very spectacular and beautiful. The spirit of the phoenix, a long return. I think slowly, and it will never backfire. When will he fly? He only wants to be with her.
Xin Ziling felt a dull pain in her chest, and she looked at the flowers and trees that appeared out of thin air. If it is tomorrow and the sky is bright, it must be red and delicate. At this time, the night is bright and the stars are sparse, and the breeze is as clear as last night. The air was still filled with the sullen aroma of elm, mixed with the smell of fresh earth tonight. She came back to her senses, slowly walked down the stairs and picked up a phoenix flower on the ground, looked at it for a moment, and then put it in her baggage. Looking back at the closed door of Chi Qianxi's bedroom, he thought that he had only slept for a while now, and he should be very tired.
She let go of her thoughts, wondering why the pain in her chest was. When he closed the courtyard door, there was some moisture in his eyes.
If she wants to leave the Chi family, with her current strength, if she wants to rush out directly, she will inevitably be restricted by the enchantment set up by Chi Tianhan in this palace, but if she sneaks out without anyone to defend it, it is actually a very simple thing for Xin Ziling. After passing through several halls, skirting several gardens, and then over a long corridor, she was already under a high wall on the outskirts of the palace. As she jumped up the high wall, she looked back in the direction of Chi Qianxi's dormitory. She couldn't remember how she had left last time, and now, inside the Chijia Palace, she could only leave in this way.
She sighed slightly when she jumped off the palace wall, and lately, she seemed to be sighing more and more. Providence was truly wonderful, just like tonight, she ran out cautiously all the way, and saw no one else except for a few people in the main hall. Come to think of it, this means that God also thinks it's not a good thing for her to be here. He has been very unlucky since she met Chi Qianxi, and he has been sleeping for more than 2,000 years due to fatal injuries, and now he has a love for her, but she already has a secret in her heart from 10,000 years ago. She and Chi Qianxi are just passers-by, so whether it is luck or providence, she will be able to act so smoothly tonight.
Now it is out of the palace of the Chi family, but it is surrounded by high mountains, which makes Xin Ziling have a headache. The last time she was in the Perching Forest, her mother asked her to go west, and now she is in the Zongheng Mountain under the jurisdiction of the Red Dragon, so where should she go? Xin Ziling looked around in a daze, she had already walked far away from the Chi family's palace, but just like the last time she was in the Perching Forest, now she didn't know which direction to go in at all. She was born a bit short-circuited when it came to recognizing her way.
When she was a child, when she lived in a small courtyard by the lake, she was naughty and didn't listen to her mother and ran to play alone. I don't know how long I walked and I couldn't find my way home, so I wandered around for a few days and entered the territory of Jinji, and was caught and brought back to the clan. When I asked her where she came from, she couldn't say why, and when she saw that she was smart and cute, she was detained there to accompany the little princess of the clan. Fortunately, the princess of the Jinji clan also likes her, and her life is going well. She was also very happy, she had grown so big, except for the bearded uncle in the small courtyard and the three servant maids who served with her, she had never played with anyone else. This time getting lost was simply an adventure and a reward, and she was very happy to be a little maid with her, and she was very dedicated, but she didn't know that her mother was in tears every day in order to find her.
That day, she was looking at the public editor's wreath in a courtyard, and suddenly someone picked her up. When I looked back, I saw the bearded uncle in the courtyard of the house, sweating profusely, anxious and anxious, and she still remembered the way she was worried but speechless. But after they returned to the Qingjia Palace, Uncle Hu didn't return together for some reason, thinking that he hadn't seen the face that had bothered her for more than 30,000 years. When she returned home, she was beaten hard for the first time, so that she couldn't get out of bed for half a month, and since then she has never dared to run around, which has added another layer of obstacles to her way of knowing the way. But the princess would come to see her from time to time, and then the princess got married and never saw her again.
In fact, the road from Hengzong Mountain to Yaoxu Hill is very recognizable. At that time, a big battle between the blue phoenix and the fire phoenix caused the fire phoenix clan who were never good at fighting to defeat miserably, with the help of the red dragon clan, although only the fifty miles of land left close to the red dragon's jurisdiction, it was also wide, and that place was where Yaoxu Hill was located. At this time, if you go straight to the northwest from the horizontal and vertical mountains, you can enter the fire phoenix territory after crossing a few mountains, and you can reach it by walking again. But when it came to Xin Ziling, she couldn't figure out the east, south, west, and north at all.
She soared into the air, saw the sea of clouds rolling under her feet, the majestic mountains, looked back and forth, left and right, but could only smile bitterly, and if she waited any longer, she was afraid that Chi Qianxi would find that she had left. Fortunately, the sun was already rising, and now she felt that she had to try her luck again, so she turned her back in the direction of the rising sun.
After crossing several mountains, an unlucky guy came out of which direction on the unobstructed road, and hit Xin Ziling at once, and the two people were unstable and fell from the clouds, crushing a dead branch and green leaf, and finally landing on a moist soft soil. Xin Ziling stood up with a painful body, and saw a beautiful woman lying on the ground not far away, wearing a peach-pink dress, and when she saw her looking at herself, she also glanced back. That glance came with the charm at the end of the eyebrows and the corners of the eyes.
Xin Ziling's body was numb, what a delicate beauty! The delicate beauty got up from the ground at this moment, and only then did she see that she was slightly tall, but with her charming face, there was a little twist. The beauty glanced at her, then at the sky behind her. Picked up a burden on the ground and ran, running that was called a heroic, running out of a manly style.
There was also a burden on the ground, Xin Ziling was about to pick it up, but found that although the color was blue, it was a cotton burden, and she was a silk burden, and her mind suddenly became clear. Xin Ziling picked up the burden and ran after the beauty, her burden was filled with a lot of personal debts!
Unexpectedly, the woman in front of her looked full of style, and she was not weak at all when she ran, and she could compete with men. Xin Ziling chased behind her for half a while, and the weather was about to be broken, and she didn't see the woman in front of her, and she had a little intention of stopping. She had to bite the bullet and continue to persevere. After a while, she heard something not far from the sky, and the beauty seemed to hear something, and she turned over and jumped under a protruding rock and hid. In just a moment, two strong men wearing long cloth coats fell from the sky and landed directly in front of Xin Ziling, looked at her and asked, "Did the girl see a woman in a peach-colored dress passing by here just now?"
Xin Ziling seemed to understand something, looking at the two men in front of her who were full of beard and beard, and shook her head very calmly, and after the two of them had been gone for a long time, she came back to her senses and wiped the thin layer of sweat from her forehead. Looking back, the beautiful woman was also poking her head out from under the rock, looking left and right, and when she saw her looking at herself, she showed a mouthful of white teeth, and she smiled and climbed up from under the earth and stone, and walked to her with a big grin while patting the soil.
I only heard the beauty say "Thank you!" and Xin Ziling was stunned. This rough voice is clearly a man, and her brain is "buzzing", don't be kind to do something wrong. The man continued, "I thought you were going to betray me, but I didn't expect you to be quite righteous. Lao Tzu was unlucky today and fell into the hands of these rabbits!" After speaking, he made a gesture and "puffed" to the ground.
Seeing that Xin Ziling didn't speak, she knew that she was scaring her, so she scratched her head embarrassedly and smiled: "I'm a man, I think you already know." To make this garment is ...... There are reasons for this. By the way, what are you doing with me?"
Xin Ziling only remembered what she was doing here, and pointed to the burden in the man's hand: "That is mine." He raised what he held in his hand again: "This is yours." ”
The man had such an expression and threw the burden over: "Thank you for today's events, there will be ...... later" Before the words were spoken, his eyes were fixed on the gem that fell to the ground to reveal the tip of the iceberg because Xin Ziling did not catch the burden.
