Chapter Twenty-Three: Flowers

Xiu Chenyan was awakened by Ling Hanluo's struggle, and he didn't immediately react to his faux pas, but slowly let go of his hands. ◢

"I just saw a beautiful flower, I just wanted to make sure it existed." He thought he was committing suicide, which is why he was so excited.

Ling Hanluo pointed to a bright flower on the edge of the cliff, and Xiu Chenluo followed Ling Hanluo's hand to look at the small flower.

The flowers are small, with only four petals, no green leaves, and stand alone in the cracks in the cliffs. This flower is very peculiar, with four petals, one petal and one color, white as chalcedony, yellow as amber, red as tourmaline, and blue as iolite.

Ling Hanluo had only seen this kind of flower in a book, and he thought it was just a legend.

Xiu Chenluo had never seen this kind of flower, although it was very beautiful, but compared to Ling Hanluo, it was so gloomy. Xiu Chenyan stopped Ling Hanluo, who was about to walk over, and flew to the edge of the cliff to fold the chic little flower. Before Ling Hanluo could stop his actions, the flower had already been delivered to him.

Ling Hanluo looked at the flower that had been folded off in his hand, his eyes widened in horror at first, and then he showed a look of regret.

"You shouldn't have broken it off."

"I'm sorry, I just don't want you to be near this cliff." Xiu Chenyan was full of fear of the cliff, and the bottomless unknown scared him. He grew up in the mountains since he was a child, and he has climbed even the highest cliffs, but at this moment, his heart is shouting not to get closer, and there is always a scene in front of him where Ling Han falls off the cliff and he can't do anything about it. It's as if you're predicting the near future.

"I'm not going to be cowardly and want to kill myself. What are you afraid of? Ling Hanluo asked.

Xiu Chenyan put down his hands and pressed them on Ling Hanluo's shoulders. "Luo'er, there are many things that can't be done alone, you need someone to be by your side, and you also need to accept the protection of others." Xiu Chenyan lowered his head and looked at the flower in Ling Hanluo's hand. "The flowers are beautiful, but they are so dull compared to you."

Ling Hanluo looked at the flower in his hand, the petals seemed to emit a little fluorescence, if it was under the night sky, it should be as beautiful as a firefly.

"Do you know what kind of flower this is?" Xiu Chenyan shook his head, even if he knew what kind of flower it was, he would fold it off.

"Its name is Moon, and legend has it that it grows in the barren desert, and it takes five years to spit green on the ground, and in the sixth year it blooms a small four-colored flower. Even if it takes six years for a flower to bloom, it will wither after two days and die along with the rhizome. Now, it only takes a few moments for it to dissipate. ”

Sure enough, as soon as Ling Hanluo's words were finished, the color of the flower that he was carefully holding in his palm quickly dimmed, dissipating with the wind, and in the end there was nothing left.

"I'm sorry, I don't know."

"I used to think that the moon flower was just a legend, and even if I had a zài, I would never be able to find it in my life. Now it has chosen to grow here, presumably so that people can see its instantaneous glory. ”

Ling Hanluo relaxed his hands, and his tone was never softer.

The more beautiful something is, the shorter life is. It's like an ancient curse, God gives everyone's life is fair, and after the glory is often ruined, and the ordinary can be permanent.

The pavilion on the edge of the cliff has a name called the Viewing Pavilion, standing in the Viewing Pavilion and looking away, a piece of smoke is hazy, as if you are in a magnificent painting. Under the cliff is a river, sandwiched between two mountains, the water surface is very narrow, the river is rapid, standing on the cliff can also hear the sound of the river hitting the rock wall.

Xiu Chenyan and Ling Hanluo sat on the stone bench of the viewing pavilion very regularly, their eyes were turned to one side, and the atmosphere was eerily quiet.

Xiu Chenyan felt very awkward, this relatively speechless feeling made him uncomfortable, but he didn't know what to say for a while. He thought that he had lost face in front of Ling Hanluo just now, and now that he thought about it, he was really embarrassed. He focused his gaze on Ling Hanluo, and then pretended to cough a few times.

Ling Hanluo heard Xiu Chen's cough and slightly retracted his mind and turned his head to look at him, Xiu Chenluo could only show an embarrassed smile when he saw Ling Hanluo looking at him.

"I ...... It's windy, and your body hasn't recovered yet, so why don't we go back?" "Xiu Chen's weak asked. Ling Hanluo retracted his gaze and did not answer, the wind ruffled his black hair. Xiu Chenyan got up and wanted to straighten his jet-black hair, but Ling Hanluo raised his legs and walked towards the circuit.

Xiu Chenyan reluctantly followed, barely two steps away from him.

"Repair the dust." Ling Hanluo suddenly called out Xiu Chen's name and stopped, Xiu Chenluo unexpectedly didn't react and almost hit Ling Hanluo's back.

"Huh?" Xiu Chenyan replied suspiciously. "Luo'er, what's the matter?"

Ling Hanluo didn't answer for a long time, making Xiu Chenyan think that he had something unspeakable to say to him, and then a sentence of 'thank you' sounded in Xiu Chen's ears. Xiu Chenyan was stunned in surprise, he thought that Ling Hanluo did not have zĂ i gratitude in his heart, and now he was very moved.

"Hehehe...... Luo'er, you will get carried away when you say that. Xiu Chenyan suddenly became stupid, Ling Hanluo looked at him and smiled, slightly curling the corners of his mouth.

After Xiu Chenyan arranged for Ling Hanluo to fall asleep, he opened the door and stretched out his arms, twisted his waist, and walked out without forgetting to close the door softly, with a relaxed smile on his face.

Xiao Shichen and Manjusri Lan outside the house had long since disappeared, and the fox was lying quietly at the door, only Qinghuayin stubbornly waiting for the figure of Xiu Chen.

Qinghuayin looked at Xiu Chenyan without her usual smile and cute coquettish look, her legs were numb, as if she had lost consciousness along with her nerves.

"Huayin." Xiu Chenyan didn't notice the abnormality of Qinghuayin, and treated her in the same mood as usual.

"Huayin, what about the others?"

Qinghua was silent. This made Xiu Chenyan realize that she was unhappy.

"Huayin, what's wrong with you?"

"Brother Xiu, why are you so good to Ling Hanluo?" Qinghuayin's voice was not excited, as calm as a pool of stagnant water. "Does Brother Xiu know who he is? Does Brother Xiu know who Chu Yu is? Does Brother Xiu know about Chaosheng Tower? ”

Xiu Chenyan only knew that Ling Hanluo was a disciple of the Purple Bamboo Forest, and this Qinghuayin had already been noticed from Ling Hanluo's clothes, and asked why a Jianghu disciple wanted to go to Shengdu, the capital of the country, the owner of Chaoshenglou didn't know who it was, but the Qinghuayin in this place had heard of it.

"Ling Hanluo is the fourth son of the owner of Chaosheng Building, the owner of Chaosheng Mansion actually made the overlord of one side tremble, but that Chu Yu is the son of the late prime minister, and the name Ling Hanluo is afraid that it is also fake."

Xiu Chenyan's smile had already converged when he heard Qinghuayin's words, he frowned slightly, and began to think about Qinghuayin's intention in saying these words.

"Huayin, what exactly do you want to say?"

"Brother Xiu, stay away from him, he will bring disaster to you." A woman's feelings are always strong, especially for the person she is going to care about, she will be very scared.

At the end of Qinghuayin's voice, there began to be a plea in his voice, humblingly wanting to cultivate the dust and listen to him, and leave the source of the disaster that would bring him trouble. The focus of the cultivation was not on the issues that Qinghuayin analyzed, he intuitively felt that Huayin would block the path he was going to take and betray him to the family.

He didn't want to suspect Qinghuayin's intentions, but he didn't like Qinghuayin to snoop on Ling Hanluo's secrets, even if what she said was completely reasonable.
