Chapter 11 Beigong Dyeing
…
Eight years later...
In late autumn, in most parts of the north, the leaves have begun to turn yellow, and migratory birds have begun to fly south. Some of the migratory birds www.biquge.info planned to make a long flight south, but when they flew over the Fairy Lake under the Floating Jade Mountain, they dispelled this idea and began to circle around the Fairy Lake.
Fairy Lake is surrounded by the Floating Jade Mountains, and the surface of the lake is as flat as a jade mirror, reflecting thousands of peaks and ravines, emerald green and crystal mountains. From the mountainside, there are overlapping pavilions and houses hidden between the forest and the clouds.
From time to time, cranes flutter in the clouds. In the canyon, you can occasionally see a golden-red mass swimming slowly, and if you look closely, it is a goldfish as big as a boat, swimming in the air, and the orange-red tail fin is like a veil like a brocade, like a cloud and mist, looking at it as if in a dream.
Lu Chaoran often sits by the window, looking out the window at these dreamlike flying goldfish. At this time, it was already the eighth year that Lu Chaoran had come to Cuiwei Palace. At the age of sixteen, he was already a handsome young man, but his face was slightly pale.
"Brother Chaoran, what are you doing in a daze?" A pretty girl in white opened the curtain and looked at Lu Chaoran intently for a while before suddenly asking.
Lu Chaoran turned his head and said with a smile: "I want to figure out, how did these flying goldfish fly?
This girl's name is Beigong Ran, she is the most proud disciple of Master Jealous Moon, her appearance is beautiful, even more than Master Jealous Moon himself, she has the appearance of ice and snow falling into the city, and she is kind and approachable.
I saw Ran'er smile slightly, and said, "I can't come to see you?" Master has just retreated, how could he want to see you?"
Lu Chaoran's face flushed slightly, and said, "So many people in Cuiwei Palace don't like me, but you take care of me like this, they don't give you white eyes, right?"
Dye said, "Bah, how dare they? a group of women with eyes like pinheads." Isn't it because your great-grandmother is Du Yilian's senior? Even the master doesn't care about it, and they don't give up. I think it must be the people of Cuiwei Palace who offended Senior Du, so she didn't want to come back. What's more, she got the Sinking Water Sword, who would rarely return to this Cuiwei Palace?"
Lu Chaoran smiled and said, "Aren't you from Cuiwei Palace, why did you help me, an outsider, to come." ”
Dye'er glanced at Lu Chaoran and said, "Are you comfortable helping them exclude you?"
Lu Chaoran sighed and said, "It's just that I'm too wasteful, I've used up so many precious pills in your Cuiwei Palace over the years, and I have also caused Master Jealous Moon to lose his strength before sealing the bloody palm print on my back." And I still can't cultivate, and I'm afraid I'll never be able to repay it in the future. ”
Dye said, "Don't think about these things all the time. By the way, didn't Master secretly teach you a set of swordsmanship? How many levels have you already practiced? Let's compare and compare!"
Lu Chaoran lost his color and said: "Spare me, you are a super powerhouse of the third layer of the Spirit Fortune Realm! Master Jealous Moon taught me a set of fog and rain swordsmanship for the sake of my inability to cultivate Dan Qi, as a self-defense, but it can only guard against some ordinary robbers." In your hands, I guess I won't be able to leave!"
Seeing a three-foot sword with a purple scabbard hanging on the wall, D'er pulled it out, waved it twice, and said, "It's so light, like a girl's use." ”
Lu Chaoran's face turned red again, and he said, "This is the Ziwei Sword, which was indeed a sword used by girls." However, because it is extremely light and sharp, it is very suitable for the fog and rain swordsmanship, so Master Jealous Moon gave me the sword..."
Dye Er looked up at Lu Chaoran, her eyes showed a trace of pity and unbearable, if it weren't for the strange injury, this delicate and upright young man should have held a giant sword, rushed into the demon array, and made ten decisions, so as to live up to this great skin. Now he can't use the true yuan, so he can only carry the three-foot crape myrtle sword to beware of the stupid thieves who are blocking the way.
Ran Er sighed lightly and asked softly, "Brother Chaoran, I heard that the Nanchu Wang family is going to send someone to pick you up in the near future?"
Lu Chaoran said: "Yes, in the past two years, Uncle Wang has often sent people to inquire about my injuries. That's how my condition is now, and he said he might as well move back to him. I think so, after all, you can't stay here forever. Besides, I still have a marriage contract. ”
Speaking of the marriage contract, Lu Chaoran felt a strange feeling in his heart. The memory of his past life suddenly broke into his long-numbed heart, and in the world of playing mobile phones, playing games, and studying at school, it was really a strange thing to think about the marriage contract at a young age. But the memories of this previous life passed away, as if the world had become a false imagination. The last time he returned to the Earth world, he was already in a coma dream.
Dye asked curiously, "Do you like her?"
Lu Chaoran was stunned and said, "I... The last time I saw her, she was only six years old, well, as old as you, fourteen years old. ”
It's really weird to get married like this. What if you don't get married? If you don't, then what? What else can you do in this world? Or go back and be with her for two years, and there are still two years before you get married. Maybe it's in one place, and the feeling is coming?
Lu Chaoran thought about it for a while, and then came back to his senses and found that Ran'er was looking at him carefully, as if he was smiling.
Lu Chaoran remembered the beauty of the young girl described in the ancient books he had read before, what "more than thirteen years of grace, cardamom tips in early February", what "the cultivator forgets his plow, the hoe forgets his hoe, and he is angry when he returns, but he sits and watches Luo Fu." He felt that these poems were about dyeing.
The beauties of Cuiwei Palace are like clouds, all dressed in white, with light skirts, not stained with vulgar dust, and they are ashamed of themselves. Lu Chaoran went to Cuiwei Palace for the first time and was deeply shocked. But living here all the year round, and most of the beauties of Cuiwei Palace looked at him coldly, he was also numb to their appearance.
At this time, I suddenly thought of the word marriage, and then looked at Ran'er's bright eyes, and my heart couldn't help but wave, thinking: "It would be nice if she was as gentle and beautiful as Dy'er." ”
Ran'er's face suddenly turned red, as if she had seen through Lu Chaoran's thoughts, she hurriedly shook the curtain and left silently.
Lu Chaoran was embarrassed, thinking to herself, this girl was too sharp-minded, and she was immediately aware of it if she was a little bit confused.
After Dye'er left, Lu Chaoran was restless in the house, so he simply put on the crape myrtle sword and walked towards the valley.
Because Cuiwei Palace only accepts female apprentices, there are no men. It was not very convenient for him to live in the palace, so Jealous Yue arranged for him to live in a single-family courtyard in the back mountain. To go to the Cuiwei Palace here, you have to pass through the curfew. And behind the mountain, outsiders can't come in, it's very quiet.
Walking into the valley, there are springs and waterfalls all the way, full of flowers, and occasionally some deer, pheasants, hares or something, passing quickly on the mountain road. If he is interested, Lu Chaoran will pull out the crape myrtle sword, without looking at it, and if he stabs it with his hand, it will definitely pass through their throats, so that at dinner, there will be a fresh and tender game.
But today, Lu Chaoran was a little bored, and he didn't bother to raise his hand. Let these little creatures sneak into the woods by the roadside and disappear.
Maybe it's the reason why you're about to leave Cuiwei Palace, although only Master Jealousy Moon and Dye'er are good to you, everyone else looks cold. But after living for eight years, I suddenly want to leave, and I am really a little reluctant to be here.
