Chapter 68: Summer Solstice, Plum Rain

Summer solstice, rainy season.

Just like the summer and sultry weather, my heart began to be bored for no reason. It is the anguish of sorrow and sorrow, as if it were worrying about tomorrow, as if it were weary of the present.

A sudden heavy rain moistened the restless people in their hearts, and a refreshing breath soaked into the hearts was spontaneously born.

At the beginning, the heat and rain are intertwined, mixing with a hot smell mixed with dust, which is very special. Gradually, the summer weather was defeated, and he was very reluctant to leave this long-ruled place.

The pedestrians on the road scattered and fled, they were affected by the residual strength of the two forces, and fled one after another with their heads in their hands. There are also people who laugh in the rain and receive the baptism of wind and rain; People are cheering and jumping, and they are supposed to be welcoming a new light.

The thunder and lightning flashed and deafened, and the majesty of the Heavenly Dao was undoubtedly revealed at this moment. In the face of the divine power of the heavens, what can the ordinary people in the world do?

The storm is quick and short-lived, and after it dominates the place with lightning speed, it moistens things silently with its gentle power.

The rain is as thin as a cow's hair, dense and stretching, and when you don't put on rain gear and go out, you will come back with a white-haired old man.

The heavy rain that drove away the scorching heat has now turned into a worrying rainy season. Such a day should be a good time for those who are depressed and distressed, and to relax their minds and relieve their boredom.

Pavilions and pavilions, carved railings and jade masonry. The misty Lake Pavilion is a rare place where beautiful scenery and artistic conception are combined.

The lotus flowers in the lotus pond are waiting to be released, just like a shy girl, budding and self-contained. The lotus leaves are verdant and full of ponds, and the delicate rain falls on the lotus leaves, accumulating a lot. The lotus leaf drooped gently and gently, and a clear drop of water fell into the pond, bringing a clear dingdong sound. Such wonderful sounds are difficult for those who are not leisurely and leisurely to obtain.

One side of the stone table, three or two stone piers, the red columns with the four fences, the simple lake pavilion with a little polish, it becomes an excellent scenery to play and watch.

The simple and stylish decoration is the quiet and natural, supreme and distant tranquil charm.

Under the pavilion, the boy and the girl sit opposite each other, quiet as a picture scroll. The two looked at the lotus pond together, watched the rain, and listened to the wind.

"My father was a very good seal cultivator in his early years, and at the same time, his accomplishments as a seal master were also very superb. Hao Yixuan also invited him to be the Twelve Courtyard Scripture Seal, but his father refused. ”

On rainy days, the humidity is heavy, and the fine strands of hair are glued together. Shen Ayaka stroked a strand of hair in front of her cheek and pinned it behind her ear.

"Of course, I've heard all of this from others. ”

is still the usual playfulness, Ling Chen has become accustomed to it.

"I've been remembering since I was four years old, but I only remember my father adopting me. I thought there was a story before that, but I don't remember. ”

Ling Chen was silent, he didn't know how to talk, so he listened silently.

The wind in the Lake Center Pavilion is very strong, but it is difficult to blow away the depression. The cool and comfortable breeze blew in Ling Chen's heart, and it became heavier and heavier. Just like this continuous rain, there is no clear sky.

"I am grateful that my father gave me a home, even though it is not complete. There was no sorrow in Shen Ayaka's eyes, nor did she see a trace of joy.

She is like a different person, mature and rational, very different from the past.

"In my memory, my father was a gentleman and eloquent person, old-fashioned but too persistent in the pursuit of "Ancient Records". Speaking of this, her eyes also seemed to reveal a little helplessness.

"They said my father wasn't like that. ”

But "Ancient Chronicles" was eventually banned, and he lost a pursuit. Eventually, the college arranged for him to teach "Introduction to Spiritual Practice", but his daily life was at least guaranteed. ”

"I wanted to work hard to cultivate so that at least my father could have a better life. In the future, he will get ahead and make his father feel that his face is bright. ”

Shen Ayaka's expression was a little gloomy, this was the first time that the girl had shown a gloomy face.

"But my qualifications are dull, my cultivation talent is not good, and I failed in the main examination of the four academies last year. The daughter of a mentor who grew up in the academy is not able to stay in the academy to practice. ”

"My father found me a place for a student in the outer courtyard, but I said, 'I don't want to study anymore,' and I just felt ashamed. ”

"My father told me, 'At a young age, I am a daughter, and if I don't study, there is no way out. Shen Ayaka frowned, as if recalling the original scene. Even when I think about it now, I feel bored.

"'If you learn to be a good civilian, you will be able to work as a clerk in the alliance in the future and eat a bowl of rice. This is the life my father planned for me. Shen Ayaka's eyes regained their clarity.

"I'm an extrovert, but I'm not rebellious. Knowing that this was the best way out my father could think of for me. ”

Ling Chen nodded silently, this is probably the path that every academy student dreams of, including Ling Chen.

"Because my father is a person who is not good at words, this kind of character is easy to suffer, so I can't be like him. ”

If the father and daughter are both so taciturn, and they don't know how to express themselves, they are only afraid that they will be bullied.

At this moment, Ling Chen saw the already lively and agile Shen Ayaka again. People have several sides, maybe that's the most real her.

"Every year, there is always a tutor in the office who talks about the genius in a certain class. My father seems to be indifferent, but he is also very concerned about this kind of thing. The same is to teach and educate people, but my father's work is insignificant. But he is still rigorous in his studies and dedicated. ”

"I never saw my father complain about life, nor did I see him confused; But last time, he took half a month's leave, locked himself in his room, and was in a daze every day. But fortunately, my father was very strong, and he finally eased up. ”

Shen Ayaka smiled faintly: "I have seen him look good these days." ”

She choked up a little, but she was still so tough, and her bright pupils were covered with a layer of moisture and sparkle.

"I want to be like my father, with a strong heart and an unbreakable heart. But I'll only be stubborn, and I'll be inconsistent. ”

"I applied for the post of Inspector and worked hard. Because I feel that my cultivation is not good because I haven't laid a good foundation in the body refining realm. I also want to see how far I can go. ”

"The moment he knelt down, I knew that I was his only sustenance in this world. Shen Ayaka gritted her silver teeth and clenched her fists.

When a child sees his father begging in such a low voice, he will be angry at why he is powerless. If there is strength, if there is ability, it will not be such a situation, and the father's face should be glorious, not discarded again and again.

"Actually, the first time I saw you, I had a strange feeling. I can't say it, I just feel like I want to know you a little bit. But it was not the right time, and besides, you were going to ask your father for advice. My father was very happy that day, and I haven't seen him so happy in a long time. ”

"Then the second time, I said you took my place. Actually, that's not where I am, and there's actually no one sitting there. At that time, I wanted to get to know you in this way. Then pretend not to have an impression of you, and test if you remember me. It's called 'trying to get away with it'. ”

Ling Chen knew that everything Shen Ayaka said was the careful thinking of the girl in front of him. A kind of careful thinking that is not revealed to outsiders at will.

She told everything in her heart and told the young man in front of her. She opens her heart and asks the teenager to accept everything about her.

"What about you?"

"Me?" Ling Chen was stunned, but he didn't expect why it was suddenly related to him.

I exhaled slightly, only hot.

"I've been with my second uncle since I was born. The second uncle rarely mentions the matter of his parents, and I don't have much affection for them. So "parents" don't really mean much to me. ”

Ling Chen shrugged his shoulders, looking very indifferent.

"The second uncle is also a sealer, and he is famous in Wanyuan Town. Ling Chen's face appeared in his mind, and for no reason, Ling Chen said casually: "The second uncle is very handsome, has a particularly outstanding temperament, and must be very popular with girls when he is young." In fact, the second uncle (like your father) is also a serious person who is meticulous in his work. Maybe this is a common problem of the sealers?"

Ling Chen couldn't help but laugh for a while.

"If it was before, I would definitely not dare to ridicule the second uncle like this, I would be beaten. ”

Shen Ayaka also laughed along, it seems that adults always have such a unique temperament, which makes them look very majestic. When a child sees it, he doesn't dare to be naughty anymore.

"It's just that he can't discipline me anymore. ”

Shen Ayaka's smile froze, and a sense of suffocation came to her face. Just like the last time Liang Zhan choked her throat, she couldn't breathe.

There are some things that suddenly you can't laugh when you laugh and laugh.

Ling Chen pursed his lips, the sad mood was in every lonely night. So at this time, he seemed to be in good shape, and he was not moved by what he said just now, after all, he was used to it.

"In the battle of Jingyuan, the second uncle was separated from us and died in the beast tide. ”

Ling Chen didn't tell the truth, but it didn't matter. The cause of Ling Tianze's death was the beast tide, and Ling Chen didn't hide anything.

"You generally know some of the things that followed. "Ling Chen had often told Shen Ayaka about their life in the Eternal Demon Forbidden.

The two of them had a very tacit understanding and didn't speak again. The picture returns to the beginning, where the boy and the girl sit opposite each other, watching the rain and listening to the wind.

Ling Chen's mood was always heavy, just like this rainy day, it was difficult to uncover the layers of clouds and mist. The drizzle is silent, and the breeze can hardly blow the coolness into the depths of the hot heart.

"At that time, why did you save me?" The girl's gaze seemed to drift into the distance inadvertently, but the corner of her eye always fell on the young man's body.

"Yes, if it were someone else, I would have done the same. Ling Chen blurted out subconsciously.

Because he remembered that someone had asked him this question before, he subconsciously repeated the answer he had said before, and even the omitted sentences were exactly the same. Because that's what happened, he just wanted to save people.

Shen Ayaka sat in front of Ling Chen, and the two looked at each other. There seemed to be a natural attraction, and the two got closer and closer, and finally the tips of their noses touched.

"Ding!"

A cloud of rain slid down from the center of the lotus leaf circle, dripping into the lake water, dripping into the hearts of the two people, splashing a splash. At this moment, Ling Chen finally felt a refreshing coolness.

The soft and delicate lips have a hint of girlish aroma, soft as a delicate pastry, melt in the mouth, rich and fragrant.

"Ling Chen, I like you. ”

The summer frog hidden under the lotus leaf came from two long cooing sounds.
