【Chapter 35 - Tide Cliff】The South China Sea Maze

"Just go along and find out." Duan Baiyue said, "It may not be clear that it will be bumped." ”

"It's nothing more than to burn the stars." Chu Yuan shook his head, "If you are really obsessed, then throw it away, I don't want it." ”

Duan Baiyue: "......"

Thrown?

"Anyway, don't go." Chu Yuan was categorical, "There is no room for negotiation in this matter!" ”

Duan Baiyue asked, "What if I have to go?" ”

Chu Yuan looked at him.

……

After a while, Duan Baiyue said with a sense of humor: "Okay, okay, don't go." ”

Chu Yuan snorted coldly, turned around and walked towards the inner hall.

The night was silent, and the king of the southwest leaned outside the hall to look at the moon.

Sixi smashed him with his elbow and said, "It's late at night, the prince should go in quickly." ”

Duan Baiyue was a little hesitant.

Sixi continued to whisper: "If the prince doesn't go in all the time, he should anger Shengyan. "I guess I'm going to have to make trouble in the next few days, and that's a real headache.

Duan Baiyue stood up: "Thank you, father-in-law." ”

Sixi Gonggong was happy and watched him enter the hall.

Chu Yuan had already fallen asleep, still motionless with his back to the outside. The black hair was scattered outside the brocade quilt, slightly messy.

Duan Baiyue leaned against him.

Chu Yuan stuffed his head into the quilt: "Get out." ”

Duan Baiyue chuckled, but instead reached out and hugged him into his arms: "I promised you that you wouldn't go to Jade Coffin Mountain with me, why are you angry?" ”

Chu Yuan didn't speak.

Duan Baiyue pulled the quilt down: "In the future, I won't care about these things in the rivers and lakes?" What are you going to do tomorrow, I'll be with you. ”

"Don't." Chu Yuan broke away from him and lay on the bed by himself.

"Are you really angry?" Duan Baiyue made a bitter face, "Otherwise, I'll give you two blows." ”

Chu Yuan couldn't cry or laugh, and stretched out his hand to pat him: "Tomorrow, the princess of Goryeo will continue to choose a horse, and you are not allowed to show up." "You can see the scarred face, and I guess you can still see it if you change your face.

"Still chosen?" Duan Baiyue sighed, "How many times has this been." "Don't say that you choose a young man who is not married, even if you choose a father, it is enough time.

"Do you know what Jin Shu asked?" Chu Yuan asked.

Duan Baiyue shook her head.

"The character of the family is naturally one of the best, and there are two points, either strong in martial arts, or looking like the king of the southwest." Chu Yuan said.

Duan Baiyue: "......"

Chu Yuan glanced at him and suddenly asked, "Where's the baby?" ”

"What baby?" Duan Baiyue was puzzled at first, and then remembered that he had said before that if he didn't go to bed in the morning tomorrow, he would give a baby.

Chu Yuan turned sideways to face him, only exposing his head outside the quilt, and repeated: "Where is the baby?" ”

That's still in mind. Duan Baiyue laughed and said, "Don't you go to the court tomorrow?" ”

Chu Yuan replied: "Yes." ”

Duan Baiyue was choked.

Chu Yuan stretched out his hand.

Duan Baiyue took advantage of the situation and kissed the palm of her hand: "When I go to the southwest in the future, I will take you to see it again." ”

"I knew I was talking about it." Chu Yuan pursed his lips and withdrew his hand.

"Of course not." Duan Baiyue asked, "When did I lie to you?" ”

Chu Yuan closed his eyes, and said in his heart that he didn't know what year and month he would be able to go to the southwest, and if he said it, he didn't say it.

"I might go to the old man tomorrow?" Duan Baiyue was tentative.

"I can't." Chu Yuan lazily refused.

Duan Baiyue: "......"

"It's all said, don't meddle in the matter between Nasai Pan'an and Lan Yizhan again, and you have to do it a thousand times." Chu Yuan said, "If he is really a demon or a demon, he will disturb the rivers and lakes for the people, naturally there will be Dali Temple and Wulin Alliance to crusade, you are the king of the southwest, run to join in the fun." ”

Duan Baiyue said obediently: "It's okay." ”

"Learn more about Jintai, go around eating restaurants and see the scenery when you have nothing to do, and then ask me for some silver, then I am called the king of the frontier." Chu Yuan said, "Don't go to see the old man again, otherwise you will be beaten." ”

"Hit the board." The corners of Duan Baiyue's mouth raised: "You should still enter the cold palace." ”

Chu Yuan blushed for no reason.

"Sleep." Before being kicked out of bed again, Duan Baiyue straightened his hair, "I won't tease you." ”

"How are you doing?" Chu Yuan asked.

"It doesn't matter." Duan Baiyue said, "You are also a person who practices martial arts, so you naturally know that practicing martial arts is a common thing. ”

"Nonsense." Chu Yuan frowned, "Even the leader of the Demon Sect who has practiced evil skills has not heard anyone say that he vomits blood every day. ”

"What does it mean to vomit blood every day?" Duan Baiyue couldn't cry or laugh, "There are only a few times in total, and you have been bumped into when you come back." ”

"In short, if you are not feeling well, go back to the southwest to recuperate, don't hold on." Chu Yuan said, "This royal city is impregnable, and no one can make trouble. ”

Duan Baiyue shook her head: "I want to stay here because you are here, and it has nothing to do with the turmoil or stability of this royal city." ”

Chu Yuan pinched his nose: "What about Southwest, don't you want it?" ”

"Don't." Duan Baiyue leaned over to him, "Why don't we make a deal?" ”

"What?" Chu Yuan withdrew his hand.

"You sent that Wen Liunian to the southwest to be a big official, and I came to this royal city in exchange." Duan Baiyue said, "Don't ask for a new house, just give it to the cold palace." ”

Chu Yuan turned his back to him: "I can't bear Wen Aiqing." ”

"Then you will give up me?" Duan Baiyue wrapped around him from behind.

Chu Yuan said lazily: "Hmm." ”

Duan Baiyue stroked his hair and imprinted a shallow kiss on the bare back of his neck.

In the second half of the night, the two of them intertwined their fingers, and they held each other at some point.

The dream is full of flowers.

On the second day, Duan Baiyue really didn't go to the old man and went straight out of the palace.

"How?" Nan Moxie was still wandering around that alley, eating with a bag of buns in his hand, "Have you got a thousand rings?" ”

"Nope." Duan Baiyue shook her head.

"How long will that take?" Nanmo asked.

Duan Baiyue said: "It hasn't been for long. ”

Nanmo Evil: "......"

Duan Baiyue said: "Xiao Yuan does not allow me to meddle in this matter. ”

Nanmo's eyes widened: "So? ”

"So that's the end of it." Duan Baiyue turned around and walked back, "Master can continue to eat steamed buns." ”

There was a gust of wind behind him, and Duan Baiyue quickly dodged away.

Nan Moxie slapped him heavily on the head and said angrily: "You didn't even discuss it, so you let the teacher do something?" ”

Duan Baiyue said: "Actually, if you think about it carefully, this matter has little to do with us. ”

Nanmo Evil: "......"

"Before, I just wanted to find out what the purpose of the Saipanan was to find the old man wood, but now that I know it, it is okay to give up the plan." Duan Baiyue said, "Unless Master also wants to be a chivalrous man and help the Central Plains Martial Arts get rid of the scourge." ”

"That's not going to happen." Nanmo shook his head again and again, but he was unwilling, "But I haven't played enough as a teacher." ”

Duan Baiyue's head ached faintly.

A moment later.

"Your sweetheart doesn't allow you to go, but he didn't say that he is not allowed to go as a teacher." Nanmo put the bun in his mouth and made up his mind, "This matter will have nothing to do with you in the future." ”

Duan Baiyue frowned: "Don't make trouble." ”

"That's nature." Nanmo patted the ashes on his body, picked up a piece of rotten wood from the ground, and hummed a little back to the inn.

Duan Baiyue originally wanted to go back to the palace, but after thinking about it, she was still not at ease, so she followed.

"I'm back." Nanmo kicked open the guest room door.

"Loud noise!" The little guy next to Saipanan was napping, and he was scared into a hurry.

"When you find Mochizuki, can't you be happy?" Nanmo was dissatisfied and complained.

Hearing the conversation between the two, Saipanan ran out of the inner room, his lips a little pale under the mask.

Just be pale. After Nan Moxie came back last night, he made an excuse to walk around the house, and took the opportunity to throw the big fat purple toad into a vase in the corner, estimating that after a night, those Gu worms were not less chaotic in their bodies, and it was an accident to be able to stand up.

"Where's Mochizuki?" Saipanan asked.

Nan Mosha hurriedly pulled out the wooden stick.

……

"Bold!" The little guy was dissatisfied.

"You little doll doesn't know how to sell." Nanmo Xie waved his hand again and again, "The body of this thing is the top Lingxiao wood, and it absorbs the essence of the sun and the moon in the wind and rain on the street, so that it can decay and produce spirituality, otherwise why should you call it Mochizuki?" ”

The little guy was still full of suspicion.

"Now that Mochizuki has been found, let's hurry up and build a thousand loops." Saipan said, "If something happens again, don't blame me for being unkind!" ”

"Naturally not." Nanmo stuffed the rotten piece of wood into a cloth bag and went to the next door. Although he was wearing a wide robe and big sleeves, he could still vaguely see his hands as he spoke, no longer looking like he was young before, but full of ravines and green tendons.

That's it, and I still have the courage to come out and pretend to be a ghost. Nan Mo shook his head, and after drinking a pot of tea, he lay on the bed and shook the sky, happy and happy.

"Sir." The little guy had been serving Saipan'an for a few years, and he had never seen him like this, so he was worried about holding people up, "Do you want to go back to the ghost country?" ”

Saipanan swept him away, stumbled into the inner room, and forcibly meditated on luck, trying to calm the restless Gu worm in his body.

But there is a purple toad squatting in the vase, not to mention that it is an ordinary Gu worm, even if it is a Gu King, I am afraid that I will be timid.

As if there were thousands of ants gnawing at his body, blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, and he finally realized that things didn't seem to be as simple as he had thought. These Gu worms have been dormant in their bodies for many years, and they have long been integrated with their bloodlines, but now they are struggling to run around, obviously someone is secretly causing trouble.

"Sir." The little servant brought hot water for him, but he was stuck in his throat, so his eyes widened in horror and looked at the extremely ugly face in front of him.

The mask had fallen to the ground, and Sepanan's face was covered with red veins, and his eyes bulged outward, as if they were from the demonic netherworld.

"Ahem." The little guy blushed and coughed.

"Are you drugged the water?" Saipanan's voice was hoarse.

The little guy was speechless, only shook his head again and again, and his mind was already blurred.

Saipanan raised his hand and slashed at the top of his head, but was intercepted halfway through.

Duan Baiyue stood in the room with a masked face, and her tone was cold: "What is your purpose?" ”

Covering his face with his sleeve, Sepanan jumped out of the window.

The people on the street were chatting, and suddenly they saw a person descending from the sky, and they were all startled. Seeing this, the Imperial Forest Army, which had been guarding near the inn, knew that something had changed, and the signal flare whistled into the sky, and they also gathered to chase after it.

Sai Pan'an's light skills were excellent, even if the Gu worms in his body were rampant, he quickly left most of the pursuers behind, and only one person remained.

Walking to a mountain forest, Duan Baiyue took a shortcut to stop the person, and pulled out the knife out of the sheath to put it on his neck.

"You, who are you?" Sepanan's voice was hoarse.

"It doesn't matter who I am." Duan Baiyue said, "Your Excellency was Qiu Ji back then?" ”

"I'm not!" Saipanan denied it, and did not hesitate for a moment.

"No, no, it doesn't matter to me." Duan Baiyue said, "But since Your Excellency knows the endgame of the Burning Star and cares so much about the Nine Mysteries, you must know the secret between the Burning Star Bureau and the Burning Star. ”

"There are no secrets." Sepanan breathed heavily, and his throat was a little swollen.

"This is the Blue Swallow Grass, which can temporarily coma the restless Gu worms in the body." Duan Baiyue took out a bottle, "If I were you, I would answer all the questions in 1510, because this is the only way to live." ”

Sai Pan'an stared greedily at the porcelain vase: "Is it really Blue Swallow Grass?" ”

Duan Baiyue pulled out the plug and poured out a few pills.

"Okay, what do you want to ask?" Saipanan knew each other very well.

"What the hell is a burning star?" Duan Baiyue said, "Why does it shine?" ”

"The Burning Star in your hands?" Saipan'an's face changed greatly when he heard this.

Duan Baiyue said: "This has nothing to do with you. ”

"Impossible, the people in this world who can make the Burning Star shine have all died on the tide cliff." Qiu Ji's eyes were distracted, "You're lying." ”

"Tide Cliffs?" Duan Baiyue frowned.

"Impossible, impossible!" Saipanan swept him away with a wave of his hand, as if he had been greatly stimulated, and he didn't even want an antidote, turned around and threw himself towards the edge of the cliff.

Duan Baiyue took two steps closely, and only had time to grab a sleeve. However, after falling off the cliff, Nasaipanan did not fall straight down, but grabbed a few green vines and disappeared into a vast cloud mist.

"How?" Nanmo evil chased after him.

"Jumped off a cliff." Duan Baiyue said, "Master, have you ever heard of the tide cliff?" ”

"I've heard it, it's rumored to be a fantasy in the South China Sea." Nanmo heresy, "The ancestors called the ancestors of Chaoya, and they all said that the people who lived there were not people, but immortals. ”

Duan Baiyue: "......"

"Then Saipanan just said he was from the Tide Cliffs?" Nanmo asked.

Duan Baiyue shook his head: "He was still bent on the antidote before, but after hearing that the Burning Star would glow, he went crazy and said that it was impossible, and said that the people who could make the Burning Star shine had all died on the tide cliff, and then he jumped off the cliff like crazy, but he was lucky enough to catch the vine, and he didn't know whether he was dead or not." ”

Nanmo Evil: "......"

"Where's that little guy?" Duan Baiyue asked.

"I was taken away by Yao'er and temporarily locked up in the inn." Nanmo said, "The officers and soldiers also went to the inn to search, but we were one step too late." ”

"Let's go, let's go check it out first." Duan Baiyue said, "At least I can figure out where this god-chattering Saipan'an came from." ”

Inside the inn, Duan Yao was holding her cheeks, staring at the little guy at the table.

"Little master, spare your life." The little guy cried bitterly, "I don't dare to run anymore." ”

"Oh, did you say it yourself, don't blame me for being rude if you run again." Duan Yao reached out and removed the spider from his forehead.

The little guy was visibly relieved.

"It's the same work, why don't you find a better master." Duan Yao pouted, "Follow that rotten person." ”

The little guy continued to smoke and match.

Duan Baiyue and Nanmo Xie pushed the door in.

"What about people?" Duan Yao looked behind the two of them, "That Sai Pan'an, didn't you bring it back?" ”

Duan Baiyue said: "It's dead." ”

"Why did you die again?" Duan Yao was dissatisfied, "If you go back and chase them out, you will chase people to death." ”

The little girl felt a fever in her lower abdomen, and she was glad that she hadn't escaped.

"If you know something, tell yourself." Nanmo squatted on the chair, "Otherwise, if it is used to refine Gu, it will be uncomfortable." ”

The little guy was so frightened that he almost jumped up, and the tragic situation of the Gu worm entering the brain was still vivid, and no one would want to try again.

So he poured beans into a bamboo tube and told everything he knew.

Nasai Pan'an had been living in the ghost town of Suzhou before, and it was said that it was a ghost town, but in fact, the whole village had suffered from the incurable plague. The neighboring village is avoided, and no one disturbs you on weekdays, but if you are bold and like to be quiet, it is quite suitable to live in it.

The little guy was originally a thief, but when he was chased and beaten by the villagers, he accidentally broke into the ghost village and was dizzy and fell into the poisonous fog. When he woke up again, Gu worms were planted in his body, so he had to stay by Saipan'an's side to serve him for four years.

"There's nothing to do tomorrow, either to practice or to study the chess game?" Duan Yao frowned.

"yes." "There seem to be a lot of people under my hands, and masked people often come to the house, and I don't know where to get the silver. ”

"Has he ever taken off a mask in the past four years?" Duan Baiyue asked.

The little guy shook his head: "Not once." ”

"Then did he ever mention to you the name of Jade Coffin Mountain, Lan Yizhan, or Qiu Ji?" Duan Baiyue asked again.

"Yes." Xiao Wu said, "He has always been very concerned about the recent situation of Jade Coffin Mountain, and every once in a while he will tell me to go out to find out the news. Let me repeat every once in a while, saying that Qiu Ji is a hero who stands up to the sky and the earth, and he is the first person in the Central Plains martial arts. As for Lan Yizhan, it is rarely mentioned. ”

Duan Yao was very worshipful when he heard this, if this person was really Qiu Ji, he would listen to others praise him every day, and he would also have a bad brain.

"He watches that chess game every day, but he never understands it, and he will fall into magic after staring at it for a long time." Xiao Wu continued, "This time, I heard him say that he was going to come out to find someone to break the game, I am quite happy, I feel that if this chess game is cracked, I don't have to worry about it every day in the future." ”

"What about the Burning Star and the Tide Cliff?" Duan Baiyue said, "Have you ever mentioned it?" ”

The little guy shook his head blankly.

Duan Baiyue frowned.

"I can't wait." Nanmo pat him on the shoulder, "Why don't you go to Jade Coffin Mountain for the teacher?" ”

Duan Baiyue hesitated.

"Maybe Nalan Yizhan has really come back from the dead." "If that's the case, then you should be able to ask a lot of secrets, and it's better than going around here." ”

Duan Baiyue said: "I'll go to the palace first." ”

Nan Moxie nodded: "Go ahead, there are Weishi and Yao'er staring here." ”

Duan Baiyue turned around and walked out of the inn.

Duan Yao locked the little guy next door after being stunned, and then continued to ask, "Who is my brother's sweetheart?" ”

Nanmo squinted: "That's it, you can't guess yet?" ”

Duan Yao shook his head honestly.

Nanmo sighed, then hooked his fingers, motioning for him to come closer.

Duan Yao was extremely excited, and hurriedly put his ear to it.

Nan Mo Xie said word by word: "Shen, Qian, sail." ”

Duan Yao slapped the table fiercely and said with relief: "I guess it's General Shen!" ”

Nanmo smiled kindly and reached out to touch his head.

In the palace, Chu Yuan was walking back and forth at the table restlessly, and the father-in-law of Sixi persuaded beside him: "The emperor doesn't have to worry, the king of the southwest may come later." ”

Chu Yuan sat heavily on the dragon chair, a little anxious between his eyebrows. Tao Rende immediately reported that Sai Pan'an broke the window and fled, and said that someone had already chased him, and he didn't need to think about it to know who it was.

Sixi's father-in-law poured him a cup of Qinghuo herbal tea.

"Go find Xiang Yan." Chu Yuan commanded, "I want to take people out of the city!" ”

"Huh?" Sixi's father-in-law was taken aback.

"What are you doing out of town?" Duan Baiyue pushed the door in.

Seeing that he was safe and sound, Chu Yuan's heart finally fell back into his stomach.

Sixi's father-in-law also missed Amitabha Buddha very much, so he hurriedly bowed down and pushed it out and covered the door for the two of them.

"I said I didn't care about it, why did I chase him out of the city?" Chu Yuan came up and asked.

Duan Baiyue said fluently: "Because the teacher's order is difficult to disobey." ”

Chu Yuan: "......"

Nan Mo sneezes at the inn.

"I know you're worried about me, but at least wait until we're done." Duan Baiyue pulled him to sit at the table, "Then admit the punishment as you wish." ”

"What's the matter?" Chu Yuan's attitude slowed down a bit.

Duan Baiyue picked out the key points of Sai Pan'an, and said, "You may have heard of the tide cliff? ”

Chu Yuan hesitated for a moment and nodded: "I heard it." ”

"Tell me about it." Duan Baiyue said.

Seeing that his lips were a little dry, Chu Yuan handed over the herbal tea first, and then said, "When I was seven years old, a few gods came to the palace, and they said that they were from the tide cliff. You didn't say it before, and I didn't remember it, but it was only after they left that the Queen Mother occasionally mentioned the Burning Star, and I think it was from here that I knew. ”

"Why a man of God?" Duan Baiyue asked again.

"At that time, I was young, and I didn't have much impression, I just knew that they could observe the heavens and predict the sex of the fetus in the womb of my father and concubine." Chu Yuan said, "I don't have an impression later, I just remember that when I left, I took a lot of treasures from the palace, and it seems that my father is very valued." ”

"After that, have any of the people of Tidecliff ever visited?" Duan Baiyue continued to ask.

Chu Yuan shook his head: "When they left before, they agreed to come back in ten years, but ten years later, my father was critically ill and did not appear, and he was even more implicated after that. ”

Duan Baiyue nodded, thoughtful.

"Where's the Burning Star?" Chu Yuan asked.

Duan Baiyue came back to his senses: "At the inn." ”

"Throw it away." Chu Yuan said, "It's not like a good omen." ”

Duan Baiyue smiled, held his hand and said, "There is another thing, you may be angry when you hear it, but I still want to say it." ”

Chu Yuan frowned: "When?" ”

"Give me a thousand loops." Duan Baiyue said, "There is a secret in the Jade Coffin Mountain, if you don't figure it out, I don't worry." ”

Chu Yuan was silent and broke away from his hand.

"Look, I'm going to be angry." Duan Baiyue was helpless, "It's not that I went in person, the family teacher's interest in this matter seems to be a little more." ”

"Why would Nan-senpai be interested in this?" Chu Yuan said, "Hugh is talking nonsense. ”

"What are you lying to do?" Duan Baiyue said, "Maybe it's because Nalan will come back from the dead like him, so I want to recognize my relatives." ”

"Is it really not what you want to go?" Chu Yuan asked.

Duan Baiyue nodded: "I'm not going anywhere, I'm just accompanying you in this palace." ”

Chu Yuan was still hesitating.

Duan Baiyue continued: "If not, I don't need you to send it, I'll go to the cleansing room by myself." ”

Chu Yuan's chest tightened.

Can't you think about anything else?
