Chu Xianzhao collapsed to the ground in an extremely exaggerated posture, the floor of the entire room was covered with dragon blood, and even the wooden barrel was torn into a pile of broken wood by him, making Zhao Xi almost think that he had entered the edict of Jinyiwei.

Zhao Xi hurriedly walked over, squatted down to test his snort, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he found that he was still alive.

At this time, his heart was beating like a war drum, dragon scales had grown on his chest and arms, and the wounds on his body healed automatically, and the characteristics of the dragon's blood body were clearly reflected in him, it seemed that his body had accepted this power, and the dragon blood in his body was slowly helping him heal his wounds.

His body could be called a blur of flesh and blood, but there was still a breath of air, which made her hanging heart slowly let go.

Zhao Xi stretched out his hand to wipe his face, until he revealed that familiar and delicate face, but his eyes were empty, but his expression was rare and calm, he looked more like a child when he fell asleep than when he woke up.

Zhao Xi suddenly felt a trace of pity in his heart, his daughter should be as old as him, the two poor children are illegitimate children, and they will be pointed at behind their backs since they were young, obviously it is not their fault, but they have to suffer such pain, are they adults too selfish.

Thinking of this, she was inevitably a little sad, completely ignoring the blood stains on his body, gently shaking him, and said softly: "Tang Huang wake up! Wake up!"

Chu Xianzhao didn't answer, his pupils were purple and golden, like a painter dripping purple and gold paint into his eyes.

After a long time, Chu Xianzhao finally regained consciousness, only to see Zhao Xi looking down at him with tears streaming down his face.

Chu Xianzhao's voice was hoarse and said, "Master?"

Zhao Xi raised his hand to wipe his tears, and said with a reluctant smile: "Your body has finally accepted the dragon blood qi machine, and it can be regarded as a small body." ”

Chu Xianzhao exhaled softly, only to feel that the bones all over his body had been crushed and reorganized, it really hurt him.

Zhao Xi rubbed his white hair, smiled softly and said, "It hurts, it's okay, everything will be fine." ”

"Master, I'm still naked. Chu Xianzhao suddenly found that he was not wearing clothes, and he was helpless and weak, and he couldn't cover his shame even if he wanted to.

"What are you afraid of, aren't you just a child, when your master was as old as you, he would also strip off his clothes and swim in the Changling River, yo, your body is much stronger than him. Zhao Xi looked at him twice, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and he looked away without a trace.

Zhao Xi found him a wooden bucket full of water again, hugged him in, sat on the side and poured water on his back with a wooden spoon, watching the cyan scales slowly peel off, revealing his bronzed back again.

There were still many bloody wounds on Chu Xianzhao's body, and there was no sense of charm between the two, more silence.

Chu Xianzhao suddenly asked: "Master, why didn't you stay with your master at the beginning, but came back to Qingguo to marry someone you didn't like at all, Xilin and Qingguo are thousands of miles apart, with the strength of you and your master, even if you wander the world, no one dares to hurt you, why?"

"Your master has told you all the stories of our past. Zhao Xi smiled.

"Why, Shi Niang, why did you abandon Master and Guan Ju in the first place, you love that Long Wu Mastiff so much, the master's leg was injured by him, right?" Chu instantly turned his head and looked directly into her eyes.

Zhao Xi was suddenly stunned for a moment, looking at him silently, and a trace of indescribable sadness and pain appeared in his eyes.

Facing such a look, Chu Xianzhao was also stunned for a moment, feeling that looking at a very familiar person, the magnificent golden pupils seemed to be drifting through the gloomy clouds, which reminded him of Hua Youyue's eyes.

Chu Xianzhao felt that his sentence was a bit heavy, and he suddenly said what Zhao Xi was thinking, but when facing this woman, he always held back his anger in his heart, even if she was really good to him.

Zhao Xi suddenly asked, "If it were you, what would you do?"

Chu Xianzhao's mouth opened slightly, and his eyes were a little dazed.

She asked, "If you were your master back then, would you choose to let me go, or do you want to keep me by your side?"

Chu Xianzhao lay on the edge of the barrel, stared down at the tips of her shoes exposed under the hem of her skirt, and said softly: "The master couldn't beat you back then, he admitted it himself." ”

Zhao Xi couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

Chu Xianzhao exhaled lightly, faced her and said seriously: "Master, if I am a master, even if I can't beat you, I will leave you behind at all costs." ”

Zhao Xi was a little puzzled, "Why?"

Chu Xianzhao said very seriously: "Even if you can't win, I can't keep you, but I will still let you know that I really want you to stay by my side, whether you can do it or not is one thing, and whether you do it or not is another thing." ”

Zhao Xi exhaled as if relieved, squinted and smiled: "Tang Huang, you are much smarter than your master." He, when he was bold, no one in the city of Luoyang could stop him, and he stood high on the city wall like standing on the top of a mountain, and when he was timid, he didn't even dare to enter the room of the two of us, and he trembled in front of the door. ”

She reached out and rubbed his head, explaining: "Sometimes if you really love someone, you'd rather end up being strangers to each other than letting your world hurt him, although two people can't be in the same world, but it's much luckier to miss each other than to live in the same world." ”

Chu Xianzhao was stunned when he heard her words, and his pupils were clean, as if there was clear water flowing in them.

"I'm so tired. ”

After a long time, he said this.

"It's just tired, you are your master's only apprentice, if you are bullied here and I don't care about you, your master will blame me. Zhao Xi quickly retracted his sad expression and pretended to be relaxed and happy. "Only here, I am your master, not a Qing'an Dragon Immortal, let alone Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of Daqing, we are a family, and our families must help each other. ”

"You believe me so much, aren't you afraid that I will lie to you when I say a lot of things?" Chu Xuanzhao's heart was empty, and he looked up at her.

"Yes, yes, I don't have many people here in Qingguo who can believe me, and the eldest princess is embarrassed to say it......" Zhao Xi said softly, "But people still have to believe something, even if it is fake for the time being, it is enough for the time being, and you can stick to it." ”

Before Chu Xianzhao could speak, Zhao Xi picked up his dirty clothes and walked out, "Your clothes are temporarily placed here, there is a maid who will wash them for you, I will help you get a new set." ”

Chu Xianzhao listened to her footsteps and slowly moved away from him, leaning on the wooden barrel and slowly relaxed, until the smell of blood in the room was gradually dissipated, he suddenly smelled a very faint sandalwood fragrance, the fragrance was warm, and he wanted to sleep a little when he smelled it.

Flowers are falling constantly, although there is no warbler singing, occasionally dill hanging on the wall, and there is still the fragrance she left in the room.

He suddenly understood why the master liked her back then.

——

Not long after Zhao Xi left the inner room, he found that the servants in the courtyard were all kneeling on the ground, and a burly man with long arms like an ape was leaning on the corridor, looking at the begonias in the courtyard that were as red as fire, and was silent.

Just like a woman dressed in red.

Zhao Xi didn't seem to have guessed that Long Wumastiff would come here, but he still didn't have the slightest surprise, and said in a cold voice: "What are you doing here?"

"It's nothing, just to see you, can't you?" Long Wu Mastiff said softly with a calm expression.

"Go down first, take this suit and wash it, and bring a new set according to the size on it. Zhao Xi turned his head and instructed the servants, and at the same time as handing the blood-stained Xuan Ran to them, Long Wumastiff's gaze also fell on the robe, and the corners of his eyes twitched uncontrollably.

"Okay, what is the matter with you coming to me, whether it is the imperial court or the dragon armies, I happen to be free now, let's talk. Zhao Xi clasped his arms and turned his head to look at the stranger he knew best.

"Whose dress is that?"

"What?"

"I ask you whose dress it is?" Long Wumastiff's tone was flat, but the fist hidden in his sleeve had already burst out, and his angular face was gradually invaded by hideousness, and his eyes gradually moved away from her, returning to the begonia tree, "I have made a big concession to you, you don't want to live with me and like to live alone, no problem, I can come to see you occasionally, but there are some things I can't bear, and you shouldn't do it." ”

"What the hell are you trying to say, I'm in a good mood today and don't want to quarrel with you. Zhao Xi's voice was as cold as ever.

"Where is he, I'm going to slaughter him with my own hands!" Long Wumastiff's forehead burst into blue tendons, and he strode towards her, intending to walk in the direction she left.

"Long Wumastiff, stop me!" Zhao Xi shouted.

Long Wu Mastiff turned his back to her, and the anger on his body became stronger with the silence.

Zhao Xi said coldly: "This is my private matter with my apprentice, it has nothing to do with you, if you dare to interfere, we don't even have to do it as husband and wife." I do what I say!"

"This is what you did behind my back, I didn't expect Qing'an Longxian to be empty and lonely, today really opened my eyes. ”

Long Wumastiff looked at this nominal wife who should have respected him like a guest, but now only respect was like ice, even so he was still willing to retreat and be tolerant, giving her far more freedom than other women in Sunset City, but why did she do such a thing, what did he do badly?

Zhao Xi shook his head and said: "You can continue to mess with me like before, but in front of outsiders, we have to continue to pretend to be a couple who love each other, even if it is to show them, but always acting like this, there are times when you will be tired, aren't you tired?"

Long Wumastiff shook his head, the two of them will never have a common topic, she likes all the noisy and noisy interesting things in the rivers and lakes, and he feels that those Jianghu warriors will always be inferior mourning dogs, they all say that a day of husband and wife is a hundred days, but they don't seem to have even done a day as a husband and wife, even if they share a bed and a pillow, she would rather lie on the roof of the palace and be in the company of the stars, than stay in the same room with him, the love of the day is really not born, and the hatred of the day is not enough, but I don't want to see him...... That's all.

Long Wumastiff pretended to be stubborn and said: "Why don't you tell me if you want to accept someone as a disciple, I am your husband and have the right to know about it." ”

Zhao Xi smiled, other people's families are poor couples mourning everything, and they can also be married to each other, but they are ruined by the outside, outsiders look glamorous, in fact, they just torture each other and refuse to let go.

Zhao Xi smiled and said: "At first, I wanted you to meet him, but then I thought about it and forgot it, because you only care about the matter of the dragoon, and now it seems to be right." ”

"Why do you want to accept him as an apprentice, I haven't seen you have the idea of accepting someone as an apprentice all these years, why is it him now?" Long Wumastiff said in a gloomy tone.

"What have you seen about me all these years?" Zhao Xi looked him in the eye and asked rhetorically.

"What do you want me to do to your satisfaction, I can change it until you are satisfied. ”

Zhao Xi secretly said sarcastically: "Don't change it, it's too bitter, why bother? Make yourself inferior now, you are the capital of the Dragon Protector Legion, how many young and beautiful women in this city secretly love you, I acquiesced to you to do what you want to do many years ago, there is no need to hang yourself on my tree." ”

"Are you playing with me?" Long Wumastiff said angrily, strode up to her, and asked, "What is the relationship between the two of us?! What is the relationship?

"Now you feel wronged and unhappy, no one forced you to marry me in the first place. Zhao Xi smiled faintly, and there were not too many emotional fluctuations in his eyes.

Long Wumastiff suddenly raised his palm, and Zhao Xi turned his cheek like mutton fat and jade to him, and said with an indifferent expression: "Fan it if you want, if you fan it, I will feel less guilty about you." ”

Long Wumastiff seemed to regret a little after raising his palm, his eyes were both aggrieved and angry, he gently lowered his palm and clenched it into a fist.

"I've always liked you, I've liked you since I first saw you, you know?"

"I know, you were a kid at the time, and so was I. ”

"For so many years, I have cherished this feeling, hoping that there is still room for redemption between us, even if it is a little later, it doesn't matter, whether you have ever loved me, even if it is only for a moment. ”

"Do you have anything else?" said Zhao Xi with a smile.

Long Wumastiff silently turned around and left, and after just a few steps, he glanced back at her, "Now it seems that not only have you not loved me, sometimes I feel that you even want to kill me, what is it that makes you suppress this killing intent?"

Zhao Xi said without thinking: "Our marriage." ”

Long Wumastiff was stunned for a moment, and suddenly burst out laughing, the laughter seemed to come from the depths of his heart, as if he had heard a big joke.

This kind of laughter is morbid and pitiful, like tearing the last fig leaf between their husband and wife, and there will be no emotional worries from then on.

Zhao Xi hadn't laughed a few times in front of him, but this time she couldn't help but laugh along with her, and her tears fell from her eyes when she laughed.

This is the most heartily laughing they have ever had since they got married.

——

Yamamoto is worry-free because of the snow's white head, and Amamoto is worry-free because of the rain and tears.

The raindrops the size of beans hit the roofs of thousands of households in a dense and rapid manner, the sound of the rain was fierce and heavy into fog, the white mist shrouded in the eaves, the rain met with a small stream of water and fell straight down, the eaves were washed by the rain to shine, during the occasional intermittent did not stop, the strength of the rain was rare for ten years.

This year, the summer came very early, the thunderstorm in mid-April has been half a month, so that the water level of the rivers in various places has risen one after another, the floods in various places in Qingguo have continued, hundreds of villages have been flooded, together with the Tang Kingdom, Zhejiang and Han have also suffered the attack of floods, and the southern continent states are flooded, and the victims are like locusts in various places, and the number continues to increase.

Because of the flood, the dragon festival that has not changed for a hundred years has been postponed to mid-June, and even the martial arts conference held every ten years has also been postponed, Emperor Qing was furious at the court meeting to hold dozens of officials of the six ministries accountable, and executed the Ministry of Industry Shangshu and two waiters, for a time the government and the opposition were in turmoil, but this rain also delayed the outbreak of the war between the north and the south to some extent, it is said that the flood in the northern region is even more terrible, the number of victims in Yan Mang alone has exceeded one million, and they are going north like a swarm of locusts crossing the border, resulting in Chu Xiaohua having to withdraw his hand to relieve the disaster and reassure the people, which is good news for the kings of the southern continent who are not ready to start a war with the northern regions。

In the sunset city, the rain is as heavy as beans.

Chu Xianzhao leaned on the pillar, looking at the majestic rain scene outside the corridor, stunned.

Since he was a child, he likes to watch the snow and rain, watching the snowflakes or raindrops fall from the sky at the same time, he feels that there is something in his heart and let go, as for the feeling of sunshine after the rain, it is better, the scene of the rainbow hanging in the sky can be described as a dream-like touch.

The Shen family manor has a history of 1,000 years, covering an area that is second to none in the mansions of the wealthy families in Luoyang City.

Now there is not even a serious master in this mansion, only Chu Xianzhao, a fake young master, including a room of ladies and misses, the current situation makes Chu Xianzhao a little emotional, in the past, he never thought that he would also have a day under the fence.

In the past, Chu Xiaohua always liked to talk to him about the general trend of the world, how to leave for a long time, will there be a day when the Great Yin Dynasty will disappear on the map of the world, so that a completely new dynasty will replace their position as the Chu royal family, since he was a child, he heard a lot of disgust from the Yin Dynasty and the government and the opposition to the erosion customs of the Southern Continent, since he came to Luoyang, he found that the original Luoyang City and Lin'an City are the same, and more prosperous than Lin'an City, like a prosperous place, the masters of the rivers and lakes have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, it is difficult to imagine the magnificent scene of tens of thousands of flying dragons sweeping over Luoyang City during the heyday of the Daqing Dynasty。

Although there are only more than 3,000 flying dragons left in Qingguo, the emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, and the Daqing Dynasty is a dynasty that monopolizes all the rivers and mountains of the Southern Continent after the Great Qin Dynasty, and can suppress the princes of the six countries for so many years and dare not raise troops to rebel, and the strength is naturally extraordinary.

The little maid in the flower skirt ran to Chu Xianzhao's side from the other end of the corridor, clutching her chest and panting, "Young master, there is a woman who wants to see you." ”

He turned to look at the cardamom girl who was sweating from the tip of his nose, and asked with a smile, "Woman? ”

The girl blushed and replied softly: "The woman in black clothes, the rouge on her mouth is red, she said that she knows the young master." ”

Chu Xianzhao was slightly stunned, he didn't expect her to swagger to see him, and exhaled softly: "Please let her in." ”
