(57) False rumors

Xu Xian still told his story.

He and the White Lady, the broken bridge begins with an umbrella, and the water overflows the golden mountain at the end, and that section has been sung through the ages.

"My original name is Xu Xian, the sage of the ancient sages. After I arrived here, I also met a lot of people who came later, and they have made up a book about me and my wife, and they called me Xu Xian, the immortal of immortals, but it is actually a false rumor. ”

Xu Xian smiled bitterly: "I'm a mortal, how dare I be an immortal?" Hehe, if I am really an immortal, I'm afraid she won't look down on me like that." ”

Ah Mo said coldly: "You yourself are greedy and selfish, and you have no interest, poor white snake, entrusted to you wholeheartedly, but suffered this evil retribution!"

Xu Xian glanced up at her and muttered, "Yes, I am greedy and selfish, and I have no interest, and following me finally made her feel wronged." ”

Jinghua saw that he was so angry, and he thought that there should be something else hidden in this matter. He was not interested in this kind of parental shortness, but seeing that Ah Mo had been quite indignant about the love-hate entanglement between Xu Xian and the White Snake since last time, he thought that the matter had come to the front anyway, so he simply helped her figure it out.

"Master Xu, if you have any secrets, you might as well say it directly. "Jinghua is used to commanding the three armies, although now he and Ah Mo are in the position of prisoners, but this tone can't be changed, a faint word, saying it is an anti-guest-oriented, irrefutable posture.

Xu Xian didn't know much about these two people, although Jing Hua had just revealed the identity of the prince of the Heavenly Clan, he had already had nothing, and this prince was not a prince and there was no deterrent to him.

Over the years, he has also changed from a useless scholar to a little more sophisticated. He could see that although Ah Mo had been yelling at him loudly with a fierce face, the really powerful thing was this His Royal Highness of the Heavenly Clan, who didn't speak much and looked even weaker than himself.

Xu Xian hesitated for a long time.

The emotions on his face were extremely complicated, sad and compassionate, persistent and unwilling, as if he wanted to confide in a thousand words, but after turning it over and over, the first sentence he said was:

"She, how are you now?"

Ah Mo was stunned, she didn't expect Xu Xian to ask this, shook her head and said: "That white snake, because she caused you to have a short lifespan, she couldn't soar, and went back to Emei to practice again." What's wrong? Do you care about her too?"

Xu Xian's eyes darkened, his face became even more miserable, and he said in a low voice: "It's not her who hurts me." I hurt her, I always hurt others and myself. ”

He smiled bitterly and said: "Me and her, is it love or hate, is it a catastrophe or fate? Hehe, I have thought about it for three hundred years, but I have never figured it out. ”

Although Ah Mo had a preconceived bad impression in his heart, after all, it was just a rumor, and now seeing that this Xu Xian looks like a gentleman, and has been sad, and the sadness comes from it, he can't help but feel some pity in his heart.

"Xu Gongzi," Ah Mo softened his heart, and his address was more polite, and comforted him: "If you and your lady have any misunderstanding, you might as well tell me, if you have a chance to meet in the future, I will convey it on your behalf." ”

"Really, Your Highness is willing to ......"

Xu Xian's eyes lit up suddenly, but only for a moment, and then dimmed a little, and finally smiled desperately, and said softly, "I am dead, whether it is love or hate, it will also return to dust." There are many rumors about me and her, both in the heavenly and human worlds, and if Your Highness is willing to hear it, then I will tell it. ”

"That year, I was just an ordinary poor scholar, studying for half my life, in order to seek fame, but I accidentally met my wife. In fact, it can't be said that she met by chance, she recognized me early and came to look for me.

The human world says that the bridge is broken and the umbrella is borrowed, and it is true. But it's not so romantic, my lady is a cultivator, and she does things very purposefully, she showed me her identity at the bow of the boat, saying that she is a white snake who cultivates the Tao, and needs to repay my kindness in order to ascend through the calamity. ”

Xu Xian smiled bitterly and said to himself, "That's right, she made it clear to me from the beginning, she came to repay my kindness, but I didn't know it myself, thinking that I could be a loving couple with her like an ordinary person, it was my Xiao who thought about it, and lost my life, and also lost her self-cultivation, self-affection, self-inflicted." ”

"Xu Gongzi ......"

"Your Highness, rest assured, I'm fine. Xu Xian glanced at Ah Mo and thanked her for her concern, the scar on his neck became more and more red, Xu is himself felt it, he reached out and touched it, and continued.

"When Su Zhen said that she was a white snake, I didn't listen to it at all, I just thought she was joking with me. Hehe, she's really good-looking, not good-looking, although it's a little cold, but I've never seen such a good-looking woman before that. What hands are like soft wattles, skin is like clotted fat, I always thought it was said in the book, until I met my lady, I knew that the description in the book was far from enough. ”

That Xu Xian is indeed a dull scholar, although it has been so long, and the two of them finally ended in tragedy, but now when it comes to it, he is still talking about it, immersed in the love at first sight at that moment three hundred years ago.

"She was such a good-looking woman, and suddenly appeared in front of me, saying that she wanted to make me a wish, anything would do, and when it was fulfilled, it would be regarded as repaying my kindness, and she would be able to soar.

I just thought she was joking, she was so young, and she didn't look like a dignitary, how could she have that kind of ability to turn the clouds and rain? I joked for a while, and told her that I wanted a thousand pieces of gold, and then I said that I wanted to be a concubine. I didn't expect her to take it seriously, tell me that her wish would come true, and then turn around to leave. ”

Xu Xian sighed softly.

On that humid afternoon three hundred years ago, the weather was hot and the cicadas were chirping, and he met the love of his life at the head of the broken bridge. He only saw the beauty at the beginning of the story, and clung to it with all his strength, but he didn't know that after that, he fell in love and killed each other, and turned against each other, but it was no longer imaginable for him as a mortal.

When I saw that she was leaving, I was anxious, and I didn't care whether what she said was true or not, I just wanted to see her again, so I followed her joke, saying that I hadn't figured out what kind of debt I wanted to repay, and let me go back and think about it for one night, and then ask her to meet again the next day. ”

Xu Xian muttered, staring at a distant place in the air that no one else could see, as if he had traveled back hundreds of years ago, and met the beautiful woman who was haunted by his dreams at the bridge.

"That day in the rainstorm, I was still half drenched with an umbrella, but the rain could not sprinkle half of Suzhen's clothes, and I already believed her words a little. But I still insisted on lending her an umbrella, and I had a selfish idea that if she borrowed my umbrella, then I would hope to see her again. ”

Jinghua chuckled: "You scholar, you're not stupid. ”

Xu Xian also smiled, "Pass the award." ”

"On the second day, I was still waiting for her at the broken bridge, and she was very trustworthy and came on time. At this time, I already knew that she was probably not an ordinary mortal, but I tossed and turned all night, and my mind was full of her voice and smile, and I couldn't extricate myself, even if I knew that she was a demon, there was no way back. ”

Ah Mo saw that although he was gentle, but when he said this, he looked like he was going to be in the middle of millions of people, and he couldn't help but admire his courage a little, so it seems that he also has some true feelings for the white snake.

"I said that I am afraid that this life is the most scoundrel sentence, I told her, I thought about it all night, and there is a day when the gold is spent, and when I become a concubine, I also have to see the princess's face, so it is better to let her make a promise to repay me for saving me that year. ”

Xu Xian laughed at herself: "I think a tall woman like her will not agree to it." But I still said it shamelessly, I was afraid that if I didn't say it, I would never have a chance in the future, and I would regret it for the rest of my life. ”

Jinghua nodded slightly, the kind of struggle on the edge of the cliff for a long time, but in the end he could only jump, that kind of courage and helplessness, he was inexplicably empathetic.

"But I didn't expect that the lady really agreed. I was so happy that I almost fainted! I think I was really blessed with several lifetimes of cultivation, even if I won the top prize, I would not have such joy. ”

Ah Mo said: "So that's the case, in order to get her, you'd rather not have a thousand gold and silver, than a famous future, it can be seen that you really like her, but why are you married, but you don't know how to cherish it, and get the annoying things behind?"

Xu Xian looked at Jinghua and Ah Mo in front of him, regardless of their identity or appearance, just looking at their appearance, these two people are already a pair made in heaven. His Royal Highness the Heavenly Clan would rather be a prisoner together than leave alone, which shows that his feelings are stronger than Jin.

Xu Xian smiled sadly and said, "The two highnesses are nobles of the Heavenly Clan, and they don't know how difficult the love of demons is. I loved her from beginning to end, holding her, and I didn't know how to make it the way I was. ”

Ah Mo said disapprerovingly: "Why do you love her and hold her? I only heard that you don't want to make progress after marriage, you drink and gamble every day, and you also feed her realgar wine!"

Xu Xian was a little surprised, he was used to listening to the sweet fragments of his love and the white lady sung by later generations, but it was the first time he heard someone say that he was so unbearable.

Xu Xian nodded and said, "It turns out that the version in the fairy world is like this, but it is very different from the words in the human world. He raised his head, a trace of frustration flashed in his eyes, "But whether it's good to say I'm good, or to say I'm bad, those people will finish speaking, and they will go their own way, and the affairs of me and my wife will only be left to ourselves. ”

Seeing that his voice was lonely, Ah Mo was a little ashamed, and said, "I didn't mean that, and I didn't believe all those rumors." It's just that, Xu Gongzi, if you are sincere to the white snake, you might as well tell the truth today, and I will return to the fairy world in the future, so that I can seek justice for you. ”

Xu Xian shook his head and said: "I don't care if it's fair or not, and I don't care what the world thinks of me." It's just that I am sincere to my mother, if you can understand, I am really grateful. ”

He looked at Jinghua and Ah Mo gratefully, and talked about the past that was said, sung, and criticized by thousands of people.
