Chapter Twenty-Nine: Taoyuan Night Talk

As soon as the sky was bright, Bi Ling woke up Yu Xiaowei, who was still asleep, said goodbye to Fu Yuan, and left Dali City. The cyan marble tablet www.biquge.info the pen can only be carried by Yu Xiaowei. The two walked for another day of waterway, and finally returned to the paradise.

As soon as they stepped into the Taoyuan Wonderland, they could hear the melodious sound of the flute. Lin Ziqi was still sitting in the pavilion, and when he saw Bi Ling and Yu Xiaowei, he said, "Put the stone tablet here." ”

Yu Xiaowei put down the stele.

Lin Ziqi got up and walked out of the pavilion, looked around the stone stele, nodded and said, "Well, the stone is right." I didn't expect you to get it back so quickly. ”

He walked to the front of the stele and stared at it for a long time. Suddenly, the long flute stabbed out like a sharp sword, pointing directly at the upper part of the stone tablet, splashing a piece of stone dust. With the shaking of Lin Ziqi's wrist, the long flute became a pen, from top to bottom, in one go, so that the smooth marble tablet appeared on the seven words "the tomb of his beloved wife Murong Ying".

Lin Ziqi walked to Murong Ying's grave and whispered, "Ying'er, I'll change you a tablet." ”

He gathered his true qi in the palm of his left hand and struck forward violently, and the old tombstone disappeared in an instant. He turned around again, pried the bottom of the new tombstone with his long flute, and picked it hard. The heavy marble jumped up, crossed the head of the forest period, and landed right in the place of the old tombstone, and plunged firmly into the earth. When the dust cleared, Murong Ying's tomb had taken on a new look.

Bi Ling bowed deeply and said, "Now, the stele has been replaced, and I also ask Lord Yin Wang to help us once." ”

Lin Ziqi asked rhetorically, "Why do you have to look for me?" ”

Bi Ling replied, "Because only Lord Yin can deal with the white-haired ice demon." ”

Lin Ziqi asked again: "Then do you know what kind of character the white-haired ice demon is?" ”

Bi Ling replied, "Of course I do!" ”

Lin Ziqi asked again: "Since you know, how do you know that I can defeat her?" ”

This time, Biling didn't know how to answer.

Yu Xiaowei preemptively said: "We have also seen the strength of Lord Yinwang, which is unparalleled in the world!" It's easy to defeat the white-haired Ice Demon! ”

"No, I'm not sure." After pondering for a while, Bi Ling finally said, "If Lord Yin and the white-haired ice demon face off, I don't know who will lose and who will win. However, at least Oto-sama can give us hope, and the only hope. ”

Lin Ziqi shook his head slowly and said, "Don't pin your hopes on me. I'm just a hermit in the mountains. The world is so big, and there are many people whose martial arts are higher than me. You'd better be smart. ”

Bi Ling was anxious and asked, "Could it be that Lord Yin is also afraid of the white-haired ice demon?" ”

Lin Ziqi was still calm and said, "Don't provoke me! To me, martial arts are just a passing moment. All I want now is to spend the rest of my life with my deceased wife, in the place she longed for. ”

Yu Xiaowei was also anxious, and hurriedly said, "But, Lord Yinwang ......"

Before he finished speaking, Lin Ziqi waved his hand and said, "Since I have already spoken, it is useless to say more!" It's getting late, so I'll help me get the stele, and tonight, you can stay here for the night. With that, he went back to the depths of the valley.

Bi Ling shouted, "Could it be that you have wasted your life in this valley, is it the wish of Mrs. Zun?" ”

Lin Ziqi's right hand that was clenching the long flute trembled slightly, but he didn't answer, and finally walked into the deep valley.

Bi Ling couldn't help but stomp her foot.

Yu Xiaowei was at a loss, so he had to say, "Miss, now we are still being chased and killed everywhere outside." Let's stay here for one night and make plans tomorrow morning. ”

Bi Ling thought about it, nodded, and said, "That's the only way." But there is not even a house around here, how can you live? ”

Yu Xiaowei looked around, smiled slightly, pointed to the pavilion in front of him, and said, "Isn't this pavilion also a room?" ”

Bi Ling walked into the gazebo, looked around, frowned, and said, "This pavilion is so small! But that's all it takes, just for one night. At this time, she remembered that there was still Yu Xiaowei and asked, "Then where do you sleep?" ”

Yu Xiaowei walked to the open space in front of Murong Ying's grave and said, "I'll sleep here." ”

Biling was shocked and asked, "Huh? Can you sleep with this? ”

Yu Xiaowei asked rhetorically: "What's wrong?" ”

Bi Ling said: "Just sleep on the ground, isn't it dirty?" Won't you catch a cold? What if it suddenly rains at night? What if a bug crawls on you? The more she spoke, the more terrifying she felt.

Yu Xiaowei laughed out loud and said, "Miss, don't worry! I've been wandering for a long time, and it's not uncommon to sleep in the open space, as long as the young lady can sleep peacefully in the pavilion. He lay down on the ground, his hands on his head, "Look! Doesn't that sleep well? ”

"Whatever you want!" Bi Ling returned to the pavilion and lay down on the bench, but she always maintained a sense of uneasiness in her heart. Is it because she can't convince Lin Ziqi to go out of the mountain, or is it because Chi Jin is threatening her life at all times? These were indeed her worries, but they didn't seem to be the source of the unease she was right now. Or is it because Yu Xiaowei is sleeping in the open air? It's even more unlikely, right? How can she still have the heart to care about Yu Xiaowei now? In short, with this uneasiness, she gradually fell asleep.

In this pavilion, in fact, she couldn't sleep very deeply, and in a daze, Bi Ling faintly heard the sound of the flute, which was still so desolate and full of sadness, as if it was transformed by countless thoughts. Biling sat up slowly, rubbing her eyes and listening carefully. Listening to it, she also felt sour, and tears couldn't stop flowing from the corners of her eyes. She stood up, gently bypassed Yu Xiaowei, who was already asleep, and walked towards the depths of the valley with the sound of the flute.

Passing through a narrow path, you will see another open field, but it is not as big as the open land in front of the grave, and there are no peach blossoms, small bridges and flowing water, only stone walls around it and a starry sky that can be seen when you look up. There is a thatched hut in the valley, low and dilapidated, and without lights. Lin Ziqi sat in front of the thatched hut and played alone.

Bi Ling walked over cautiously, sat down, held her chin, and listened quietly. She closed her eyes, as if she saw the peach blossoms in the garden, blooming just right. A spring breeze blew, and the petals were knocked off, and they rained like rain. In the midst of the rain of flowers, there was a figure that flickered and flickered, drifting away, until it finally turned into a rain of flowers.

At the end of the song, Bi Ling opened her eyes, and the depression in her heart gradually dissipated. She asked, "Do you miss your wife?" ”

Lin Ziqi was silent and did not answer.

Bi Ling continued: "The last time I went to Dali City, Fu Yuan had already told us about Mrs. Zun. I believe that you must have lived in longing and regret all these years. ”

Lin Ziqi still did not speak.

Bi Ling said: "But have you thought about it, even if you stay alone in the peach paradise, playing this sad tune day and night, she will not come back to life; Is what you're doing now what she wants to see? ”

Lin Ziqi turned his head to look at Bi Ling, and finally asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”

Bi Ling replied: "She has known you since childhood, and it should be very gratifying to watch you grow from an ordinary person to the king of sound who is famous all over the world." But because of her death, you sink into thoughts every day, fall into remorse, and all your studies are wasted, how can you not make her sigh? ”

Lin Ziqi smiled bitterly and said, "You are wrong! She didn't like me fighting people. In my journey to becoming the king of sound, she was accompanied not by happiness and relief, but by worry again and again. She didn't like me as the king of sounds, but dreamed of living in seclusion with me. Now I am hidden here, and I am with her, which is exactly what she wants. ”

Bi Ling shook her head and said, "It's you who is wrong!" The life she wants is to live in seclusion with you, free from the troubles of the world. But your current life, alone in a lonely grave, looks like a prison, is it considered free? What she doesn't like is not the title of King of Sound, but your pursuit of fame and fortune. If you can use your martial arts to save the people in the world, then it will fulfill her wish, and at the same time, you will save yourself. ”

Lin Ziqi asked rhetorically: "You and my wife have never known each other, how do you know her thoughts?" ”

Bi Ling was silent for a while, and then, her tone became slow: "Before, I fell in love with a Central Plains person, and he loved me very much. But I thought his martial arts were not high, so I took the Eagle Sect's "Demon Sword Heart Sutra" to him to practice. He didn't like to practice martial arts, so he agreed to practice it for my sake. But who would have thought that the "Demon Sword Heart Sutra" was incompatible with his existing internal strength in the Central Plains, and the deeper he practiced, the more uncomfortable he felt. But I still keep forcing him to practice ......" Speaking of this, Biling choked up. She held her head, tears soaking her sleeves. After a long time, she raised her head again and continued: "Finally, he went mad due to excessive practice, and was finally killed on the street. So, I tried my best to kill his killer and avenge him. ”

Lin Ziqi said: "Actually, the person who killed him is you!" ”

"That's right! That's me! I killed him! If I didn't love vanity so much, and didn't force him to practice the Demon Sword Heart Sutra, how could he die? As she spoke, Bi Ling almost cried, "Only then did I understand that it was not his martial arts that I loved, but him as a person." He is a very affectionate and righteous person, although his martial arts are not high, but he can save his Jianghu brothers from strong enemies regardless of his life. What I love is this chivalry of his. Bi Ling turned her head to look at Lin Ziqi, "Mrs. Zun and I are both women, and from her story, I can understand what her love for you is." ”

Lin Ziqi fell into deep thought. He frowned, pinched his eyebrows with his right hand, and sighed: "Alas! I am tired! He stood up and prepared to go back to the hut.

Bi Ling didn't plead as hard as she had before, because she knew it didn't make sense to say anything.

Lin Ziqi looked back at Bi Ling and asked, "Since you still miss your old friend in your heart, who is this kid who is with you now?" ”

"Huh? You said Yu Xiaowei? Bi Ling's eyes widened in panic, and she immediately sped up her speech, "He and I are nothing!" He just loves to follow me! ”

Lin Ziqi shook his head and said, "Instead of drowning in regret for the past, you should cherish what you have now." Otherwise, it will be even more regretful to lose it again in the future. With that, he walked into the hut and closed the door.

Biling walked back to the pavilion in front of the valley alone. After she went around the depths of the valley, her heart became even more disturbed. Yu Xiaowei was still sleeping soundly in front of the grave. Bi Ling quietly walked over and stared at Yu Xiaowei for a long time, not knowing what she was thinking. She walked back to the pavilion and accidentally saw the word "bosom friend" written on the pavilion. She walked in the gazebo, although she had just said a lot of words, but what echoed in her mind for a long time was the last sentence of Lin Ziqi. She thought about it, and finally fell asleep again.

The next day, just after dawn, Biling woke up. After a good night's sleep, my mood is calmer. But when she sat in the gazebo and thought that she was about to leave the paradise, she became irritable again.

After another while, Yu Xiaowei also woke up. He stretched his waist, yawned, and saw that Bi Ling had already gotten up, so he hurriedly got up and saluted, and asked, "Miss, did you sleep well last night?" ”

Bi Ling asked rhetorically, "Did you sleep comfortably on the ground last night?" ”

Yu Xiaowei supported his waist and replied with a smile: "It's okay!" ”

Bi Ling nodded and said, "Then let's go now!" ”

Yu Xiaowei asked, "You don't ask Lord Yin anymore?" ”

Bi Ling thought for a moment and said, "No need! Now that Lord Sound has made up his mind, it's useless for us to say anything. ”

They were about to leave when they suddenly heard someone shouting behind them, "Wait! "Looking back, it turned out to be the forest period.

Lin Ziqi slowly walked to Murong Ying's grave, looked at the tombstone, and didn't say a word.

Yu Xiaowei couldn't guess what Lin Ziqi was thinking, and speculated in his heart: "Don't you think I slept in front of the grave last night and messed up the grave?" Thinking of the golden tiger who had been abandoned in the wilderness just because he had broken the tombstone, Yu Xiaowei couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly ran up and apologized: "Lord Yinwang!" Last night, the juniors slept here for a night, and now they have just gotten up, and they haven't had time to clean up. I'm going to clean up! Let's go clean! ”

Lin Ziqi didn't seem to hear Yu Xiaowei talking at all, but looked back at Bi Ling and asked, "You say, can you understand her thoughts?" ”

Biling nodded.

Lin Ziqi turned to look at the tombstone and whispered: "Ying'er, you once said that you don't care if I am the best in the world, but if I can use my martial arts to do chivalrous righteousness, eliminate evil and promote good, you will also be very happy." He closed his eyes, pondered for a moment, and finally said aloud, "Good! I promise to help you deal with the white-haired ice demons. ”

"Really?" Biling almost screamed, "Great! She couldn't express her excitement and wanted to dance.

Only Yu Xiaowei didn't seem to be able to react, touched his head, looked at Bi Ling and Lin Ziqi, and asked inexplicably, "What are you talking about?" ”

With Lin Ziqi's help, Bi Ling couldn't wait to avenge her mother. She shouted, "Let's go find the white-haired ice demon!" As he spoke, he was about to run out.

Lin Ziqi asked, "Do you know where she is?" ”

Bi Ling was stunned. recalled that the last time she saw Leng Qiuxun was at the Eagle Sect General Altar. At that time, Leng Qiuxun was poisoned and fled, and he didn't say where he would go, but later he leveled Shushan and made trouble in Hanzhong, until he obtained the Ten Thousand Souls Blood Crystal, and Bi Ling didn't know it. Bi Ling had no choice but to shake her head helplessly.

Lin Ziqi asked again: "You don't even know where the enemy is, so you are clamoring for revenge?" ”

Biling was speechless.

Yu Xiaowei hurriedly said: "The white-haired ice demon god is out of nowhere, and there is no news after destroying the Eagle Sect, and he may have left Miao Jiang." ”

Lin Ziqi paced back and forth for a few steps, thought for a while, and said, "Then we have to find the white-haired ice demon first." There is a person who may have a way. ”

Bi Ling and Yu Xiaowei asked in unison, "Who?" ”

Lin Ziqi replied: "This person's surname is Xu Impermanence, known as the ghost eye through the sky, specializing in collecting news from the rivers and lakes, and it is said that there is no one in the world who he can't find." Back then, it was through him that I found the enemy who killed my wife. This guy is a bit weird, though. ”

"Kind of weird?" Yu Xiaowei couldn't help but whisper, "Is it weirder than you?" ”

Bi Ling didn't want to wait for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "Where is he?" ”

Lin Ziqi slowly said two words: "Xudu." ”

Xudu, also known as the ghost city, is located in the eastern part of Sichuan, and is said to be the passage of the two worlds of yin and yang. During the day, like other ordinary towns, people can come and go freely; At night, it becomes a netherworld and is infested with ghosts, so that mortals dare not approach. It is indeed strange that Xu Wuchang actually lives in such a place.

But Bi Ling didn't care, but pointed to the northeast with high morale and said, "Okay! Let's go to Xudu! ”
