Chapter 23: Ji Liu

At this time, there was a sudden sound of a clear whistle in the sky.

Sanzhi looked up and exclaimed, "What's that?" ”

Liu Xiaohua looked up and was completely shocked.

Far away, something was flying towards me. Dingqing can also faintly see colored light. When I got closer, I could see clearly, and it turned out to be a strange colorful bird. The bird's body is long and thin, and it is absolutely not able to hump a person with its size, but there is really a young man sitting on it, fluttering like a fairy.

"So, is that a fairy?" Sanzhi's voice was shaking.

"Immortals? Hahaha, how can you return to the mortal world when you become an immortal. Who is this? But the boy was very accustomed to it.

Liu Xiaohua kept looking in that direction steadily.

The figure had crossed the sun in the sky, and as it drew closer, lightning swooped over the heads of the three men. Bring up the strong wind, blowing Liu Xiaohua's clothes and hair. She narrowed her eyes. It was as if the man on the bird had looked back.

Soon, the bird's figure disappeared into the sea of clouds. She was still looking in that direction.

That's the monks of the upper echelons?

The young man had already continued to walk back, "It's Nansheng's teacher who wants to see you. Maybe I heard that Nansheng's family was here and wanted to meet him. The boy laughed.

Sanzhi glanced at the sky nostalgically, and pulled Liu Xiaohua to follow his steps. I couldn't help muttering, "You Venerable are really idle." Even the disciple's family is willing to see it. Then he asked, "I wonder what we should call him?" ”

The young man said, "He's a big girl." When you meet, if you have a little rules, you can call him Ling Xianshang. If you are sloppy, you will be called a nobleman, and no one will pick your thorns. ”

Sanzhi asked, "Is he also surnamed Liu?" An uncle in the clan? ”

"It's not from the Liu family, it's just the teacher in the clan science. Many of the teachers who taught in the clan studies were invited from various sects, and there were people from all families. Ling Xianshang is the sword cultivator of the Qingming Sect. I just came to the family school this year. After the "young man was full of interest" came, he took a fancy to Nansheng at a glance. There was a look of pride on his face.

"Are you good friends with Liu Er?" Sanzhi is curious, what kind of person can get Liu Er's blue eyes and be friends with him. Because of Liu Xiaohua, she has never liked Liu Er very much.

"No, it's not." The young man couldn't believe it, "How can I have the ability to make friends with Nansheng's junior brother." He was embarrassed to say, "I admire Senior Brother Nansheng very much." Don't look at me in front of you, I don't dare in front of him. The boy shrunk his neck and looked very shy. also pleaded with Liu Xiaohua: "You must not sue him!" ”

Liu Xiaohua's expression seemed to be in a fugue and ignored him.

Sanzhi nudged her, "Hey." ”

Liu Xiaohua came back to her senses, nodded and agreed, and the young man was really relieved. The young cheeks were red.

Sanzhi asked him in surprise: "Are you admiring Liu Er?" ”

"You don't know, Nansheng was so majestic as soon as he came to the clan school. Eighteen dzi beads, all of which lit up as soon as his hand touched them. This is a miracle that has not been seen for thousands of years. You can see that when he came out, the robe on his body and the sword on his back are not ordinary things. Only those who are favored by the immortals are eligible to wear and use. It is different from what ordinary disciples use. ”

"Eighteen dzi?" Liu Xiaohua muttered.

The three of them have already climbed onto the gimbal.

The boy pointed to the brass nails on the mountain gate and said, "That's it." There are nine hundred and ninety-nine in total. If you can light ten, it is already a wonder material. It is said that even when the fourth uncle was at his best, he could only light up fifty of them. Except for Fairy Lin, there is no one who can make all the nine hundred and ninety-nine light up. ”

"Does Fairy Lin mean Gillian Lin?" Liu Xiaohua asked immediately.

The boy nodded, "You know her, you can see her scenery." "Infinitely embarrassed.

Liu Xiaohua pointed to the door and said, "There don't seem to be nine hundred and ninety-nine here, and one has dropped." ”

"You've got weird eyes." The boy said, "That one didn't fall." It was more than ten years ago that the fourth uncle dug it up and gave it away. ”

As he spoke, he lowered his voice, "Since Fairy Lin ascended to the immortal, the fourth uncle has never returned to the clan, and when he suddenly came back that year, the disciples in the clan were so happy that they wanted to die, and they all wanted to take the opportunity to worship the fourth uncle as a teacher." As a result, I didn't expect the fourth uncle to lose his temper when he came to the clan study, and almost razed this place to the ground. At that time, in the Liu family, those who had a little cultivation were almost all lost in his hands. At that time, the Holy Emperor didn't care, and the people sent by the clan to ask the magistrate were sent back without saying a word, and I heard that the seventh uncle was about to die of fright. Fortunately, the sect masters of all factions came later, and the matter was calmed down. After that incident was over, when the fourth uncle left, he dug up the top dzi. said that this thing was originally not from the Liu family. The Liu family doesn't deserve it. ”

"So who deserves it?" Liu Xiaohua asked.

"Who knows." The teenager muttered. Thinking of something, he hurriedly said to Liu Xiaohua: "I think you told you only when you are Nansheng's sister." Don't go around telling people. These things are not allowed to be discussed in the study of ethnology. If you talk too much, you will be severely punished. ”

Sanzhi raised his eyes and said, "If you let us touch the dzi, we won't tell others." ”

The young man was stunned for a moment: "I told you with kindness!" How can you blackmail me like that? "It looks very hurt.

"We didn't want to hear it. It's what you have to say. Sanzhi didn't back down at all. As if he thought it was too much fun to tease him.

The young man was really wronged, and he flattened his mouth and looked unhappy. Maybe if Sanzhi blocks him a few more words, he will cry, "Then you touch it." It's nothing to touch. You have to talk the talk. ”

"Of course." Sanzhi excitedly pulled Liu Xiaohua towards the mountain gate.

The boy kept muttering and complaining behind them.

The so-called door of the Liu clan is not really the kind that can be opened and closed at will on top of the mountain gate. The mountain gate has only one frame, which is more like a torii. The door they are talking about is a false door placed like a shadow wall.

After entering the mountain gate, take a hundred steps forward, and this is the false gate.

From the outside, it looks like it's one with the mountain gate.

"Let's try it. It's okay. "The three branches are excited.

The young man also followed, although he was still very unhappy, but he couldn't help but want to talk to Liu Xiaohua: "I heard that among the other two people who were selected with Nansheng, you were you?" It's just because your family is too poor to be able to eat that you didn't learn from the clan? Perhaps, you are as powerful as Nansheng? …… You're his sister. His expression was a little excited. Try it. ”

Liu Xiaohua looked at the majestic wooden door and the slightly protruding 'dzi' on it.

Just put your hand on it, you can know what the qualifications are? There was a trace of apprehension in her heart.

"That's right. Aha, you try it first. The three eyes are glowing, "Hurry." ”

Liu Xiaohua looked down at her hands.

Because of the long period of labor, although these hands are slender, they are all calluses.

Seeing that she didn't move, Sanzhi said, "Are you afraid?" Then I'll try it first! As he spoke, he ran up to her and pressed one hand on the door.

A very small bead, invisibly lit up, but quickly extinguished. But Sanzhi was still so happy that he shouted: "It's bright!" ”

Excitedly, he asked the young man, "Do I also have the talent for cultivating the Tao?" ”

The young man laughed: "Although it is said that you are talented, but look at your light, it is the same as a firefly." In the future, at most, I will be a boy for others. ”

Sanzhi asked curiously, "What does the boy do?" ”

"A monk who has a little cultivation will bring a boy with him." The boy said, "The boy is the closest person to the monk, and he has to bring tea and pour water inside, cook, sweep and do laundry, and outside he has to take care of miscellaneous things, so that the monk will not be disturbed by trivial matters." Because you need to understand the runes and distinguish the elixir, you need to have some cultivation. ”

Sanzhi listened, but he was still very happy, "It's good to be a boy." Great, I can be a boy!! ”

The boy has never seen such a happy person as a subordinate. I couldn't believe it, and asked her, "Do you know what a subordinate is?" The monk is your master, and you have to do whatever you are told to do. ”

But how can a well-born person like him know that for Sanzhi, even if she is a child, it means that she is far away from the terrifying life under the roof.

Some people are afraid of death, so they will not enter the clan if they have the qualifications.

But what some people really fear is not decapitation, disability, or loss of life. Instead, they are afraid that they will be silently consumed by poverty and difficult life, and become numb in despair, and even they will not feel sorry for themselves, but only survive in misery.

Sanzhi ignored the young man and said to Liu Xiaohua excitedly, "Try it." ”

Liu Xiaohua nodded, and was about to press her hand up, when suddenly there was a big chaos in the mountain gate, and many screams sounded, like a group of beasts roaring together, and like a golden iron horse fighting, and thunder in the sky.

"What's wrong?" Liu Xiaohua withdrew her hand and hurriedly asked.

When the young man heard this, his face changed: "Oh no! The sky screams. This is who has fallen! He turned and rushed towards the mountain gate.

Liu Xiaohua was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously ran forward behind him.

The pavilions and pavilions inside the mountain gate are like fairyland, but they don't have the heart to appreciate them at all. Following the boy over the porch after doorway, the more inward he went, the more people he encountered, and everyone was running forward.

Someone was shouting, "Who is the accident?" ”

Liu Xiaohua heard someone next to her say, "It can't be a teacher, right?" There is a mourning cry in the sky, and the one who died must not be an ordinary monk. ”

Liu Xiaohua squeezed into the crowd and ran forward, and she didn't know what her heart was panicking about.

The flow of people stopped outside a dark gate, and the front was so crowded that no one could get through. There are disciples who know how to do magic, and they fly over the wall lightly.

Liu Xiaohua asked aloud a person sitting on the wall, "What's wrong inside?" Did anyone get hurt? ”

The man glanced back, and although he didn't recognize her, he still replied loudly: "I can't see clearly, the Venerable Ones are all huddled together and blocked." ”

"Is the disciple injured, or is it the Venerable One?" Liu Xiaohua shouted at him.

But the man didn't look back, stared at the courtyard intently, and didn't pay any attention to her.

Liu Xiaohua stood up, only to see a black crow in front of her, all blocked at the door, and there were fewer people on the wall. She turned and squeezed towards the wall. Saneda followed her and yelled, "What's wrong? What the hell is going on? ”

The two of them squeezed to the wall, only to find that the wall was very high, even if it was two people, they couldn't reach the top, and it was a little close.

Liu Xiaohua glanced at Sanzhi, and Sanzhi looked dazed. Liu Xiaohua ignored her, did she understand, turned around and shoveled the crook of the knee of a disciple who was standing alone by the wall.

The disciple was suddenly attacked, and immediately knelt down.

Sanzhi reacted at this time, ran over and stepped on his back, and said loudly, "Thank you!" ”。

The disciple shouted, "What are you doing! Trying to stand up, as soon as he moved, Liu Xiaohua, who was crawling on Sanzhi, screamed loudly, "Don't move, don't move, I'm going to fall to death." I'm going to die. ”

The disciple listened to her scream so that it was not scary, and he was afraid that he would really die, so he did not move, and lay on the ground and twisted his neck desperately, trying to see what was happening, and asked, "Did someone fall off the wall?" ”

Mieda said, "That's right." Don't move. I'm holding her!! You're going to fall off as soon as you move. Fall to death and count it as yours. ”

The disciple hurriedly didn't dare to move, and shouted, "How can it be counted as mine?" You hold on a little better. ”

Liu Xiaohua climbed the wall and looked into the middle of the courtyard.

It turned out to be a place like a martial arts arena. There are not many people inside, and it is because someone stops the door and does not let people in, so the outside will be blocked like that.

Now many people are standing on the stage, surrounded by someone.

Liu Xiaohua looked at the corners of her clothes that emerged from the cracks, and her heart beat as if she was going crazy. She felt that she was crazy, even if it was Liu Er who died, she would not be sad. But he was asking loudly, "Liu Er, Liu Er, is it Liu Er?!" ”

When she shouted like this, everyone on the stage looked at her.

It seems that someone else is saying something to her. She heard it clearly, but she didn't understand what people meant.

She had only one thought in her head, she had to see who it was.

When the people in the courtyard saw that she was about to jump down, the disciples who were close to screamed and ran over to catch her. Knocked over several times, she got up and broke free from the men and ran to the stage.

A disciple stopped her and asked, "What are you doing?" Get out! This is not where you come from! ”

But a middle-aged man on stage said, "Let her come." ”

Liu Xiaohua pushed away the disciples who were blocking the way and ran onto the stage.

The people around get out of the way.

When she saw the face, she fell to her knees. Maybe I tripped over something.

Liu Er's face was not bloody at all, and his chest was still undulating, but every time he rose and fell, blood came out of his chest. Liu Xiaohua crawled over and stretched out her hand to help him plug the hole. But the blood kept pouring out of her fingers.

"Save him!" Liu Xiaohua shouted at those people, "What are you doing standing!" ”

A strange old man said, "Girl, he has broken his heart, and the altar is broken." ”

"Then watch him die?" Liu Xiaohua felt that she had never been so calm, and even her tone was so cold that she didn't have the slightest emotion, "You don't try, just stand here and watch him die!?" ”

Liu Er tilted his head, struggled to look at the voice, and his eyes that lost focus slowly condensed on her face, as if he recognized her as "Sister ......"

The voice was terrible weak. Breath like a gossamer.

"Sister...... Am I going to die......"

Liu Xiaohua didn't know why, tears burst out of her eyes, and she comforted him: "You won't die." A-Niang is still waiting for you to glorify your ancestors, and when I get married in the future, you will have to help me support me. ”

"Sister, don't give birth...... I...... My ...... I...... I was wrong...... Other...... Other...... Don't hate me...... I'm ...... ...... scare you," Liu Er muttered, his head slowly tilted to the side.

"Liu Er!" Liu Xiaohua pressed her hands on his chest, trying in vain to wake him up.

I don't know who came over, "This is his family?" ”

Someone replied, "He still has an old lady in that hometown." Live near Chicken Neck Mountain. ”

Before Liu Xiaohua could come back to her senses, they grabbed her, and she struggled very hard. But the other party is more powerful than her. "Let go of me! Let go! What do you do? ”

But the men dragged her to the next room without stopping at all.

Liu Xiaohua only realized at this time that something seemed wrong. The person who pulled her was dressed differently than the people in the ethnology. These two people are in iron armor and red robes, and they have a one-color Pisces pendant on their waists. The outer robe is embroidered with the same flying fish pattern.

She heard Sanzhi screaming outside, "Ah Hua? Jen? You let me pass! What are you doing! Where are you taking her? Let her go! ”

A voice said, "Her family is plotting a rebellion!" You're helping her so much, are you in league with her! If it's not a gang, I advise you not to do much. ”

Sanzhi's voice only paused for a moment, and then shouted again, "Rebellion!" Her family doesn't even have money to eat, so what's the opposite? You don't squirt people with blood! ”

Rebel? What rebellion?!

Liu Xiaohua couldn't shake off the hands that were holding her, so she could only turn her head and look out desperately.

Turning his head, he saw several figures coming out of the hall in front of the martial arts arena. The smiling Yan Yan at the head was dressed in a blue robe that made him refreshed. The eyebrows and eyes are crooked, and the cheeks are slightly drunk.

She shouted, "Ji Liu! Save me! ”

But the man just glanced this way lightly, and continued to talk and laugh with the people around him, and the group went out.

For the first time, Liu Xiaohua felt that she was dead.

Not only is she dead, but even the Chen family in the village is also dead. She didn't know why, but she knew she really wasn't going to be able to help herself.

She panicked in her heart, and there was only boundless despair surging. His eyes were fixed on the back of the handsome boy. At the moment when he was dragged into the house, he shouted with all his strength: "You didn't say you liked me!" I like you too! I liked you from the first time I saw you! I like you think I'm useful, I like you like me! But now, I hate you! I hate you!!! ”

Liu Xiaohua didn't know why she said these words. Just blurted it out. It's like you've been hit by a magic barrier. Have you ever liked this person? I don't know.

How can she have time to think about whether she likes it or not!

If you really want to talk about it, it's more afraid of this man.

The reason why Liu Xiaohua suddenly shouted this paragraph. may be related to a passage she saw on Weibo before she crossed over. A certain chicken soup instructor said that no matter whether a man likes a woman or not, as long as that woman truly loves him, he will not be too bad to that woman.

Liu Xiaohua didn't think that her own behavior was useful. It's just a desperate struggle in a desperate situation, and even a reed wants to hold on.

She even felt stupid when she said it.

But at this time, Ji Liu suddenly stopped.

He turned his head and looked at her with a very strange look. I was a little dazed, as if I woke up in my sleep and found a face in front of me, trying to make out who it was.

Then he walked over to this side.

All the people were watching him.

Watching him step by step, he walked towards the girl who was covered in blood.

Liu Xiaohua felt this strange silence and tried to look back again. But the two men who grabbed her pressed her to the ground very hard. She slammed her face against the raised stones on the ground, but she didn't feel any pain.

These two people crushed her, looked up at Ji Liu in amazement, and said to him loudly, "Sixth prince, we are doing things for His Majesty the Crown Prince, and you also know it." ”

Ji Liu ignored them. He walked up to Liu Xiaohua, who was dragged to the ground, step by step, and looked down at her. "You like me?" He sneered: "What do you like about me?" The gaze changed from the initial blankness to an extremely fierce one.

This kind of terrifying expression had never appeared on his face. This made his face look unusually distorted. It was as if he was not facing a little girl who liked him, but an enemy who had killed his entire family.

Liu Xiaohua was pressed to the ground by two people, whose hand pressed her head, her mind was a mess, and she shouted hoarsely: "I don't know!! You are a person who really has no merit except for being good-looking. You've probably never done anything in your life that would make people like you. You can do without a sister, without your own children. As long as you are safe and rich. You're not good to me at all!! I hate you for making me kneel before you, and I hate you to death. Why should I like you? Why should I like you?!! ”

As she spoke, she broke down and burst into tears. It's a lie she'll never get back.

She felt like she was going to die this time. As a teenage girl, she has traveled over to live again, after all, she only has the experience of being a teenager, and it is already her limit to be able to calmly plan and live until now, and she doesn't know what she can do now except to die
