Chapter 92: Keep your mouth clean
Like a round pot poured on the ground, there is no grass on it, and the whole body is white, shimmering in the sunlight, which is in stark contrast to the surrounding emerald green.
Until this time, I could already be sure that this Nine Immortal Palace was a real sect of cultivating immortals, where the spiritual energy was abundant, and it was not affected by the climate change of the four seasons, and it would go to spring forever.
"Maybe you can get a cultivation technique from here." I thought to myself, since Mo Qi's "old friend" is the head of this Nine Immortal Palace, as long as I can untie the festival between the two of them and let them get back together, it is not impossible.
"If you calculate carefully, we have been separated for three years, and we must get drunk today!" The girl seemed very excited and excited about my sudden arrival.
After some side knocking, I finally knew that her name was Chu Ruozhao, the granddaughter of the Duke of Chu in the current dynasty, who left Chang'an three years ago and came to Jingzhou, and later entered the Nine Immortals Palace by chance.
"Drinking? Okay, the old people must come to see each other without getting drunk. I naturally won't shirk it if I can drink, and then I laughed and teased, "You immortal cultivators, can you eat meat?" ”
"Of course, I have officially embarked on the path of cultivation now, and I don't need to eat a vegetarian diet like those beginner disciples."
The territory of the Nine Immortals Palace is very vast, and after passing through a few mountains, Ruozhao took me to a peach blossom forest, where there are many taverns, and the thick aroma of wine is wanton, which adds a touch of poetry to this place.
The two found a tavern to sit down, with a round stone table and three or five bamboo chairs, placed on an ancient road in the peach forest, which was very meaningful. The same is true for other taverns, with tables and chairs placed outside in the open air.
After simply ordering some wine and food, the two began to drink to each other, Ruozhao faced an old friend who had not seen him for many years, he was very emotional, and there were some endless words, but I was hesitant to confess my true identity to her.
"When I first came to this strange place from Chang'an, I couldn't sleep all night for a long time, and as soon as my eyes were closed, everyone's figures would appear in my mind one by one......" Chu Ruozhao's true feelings were revealed, and his beautiful eyes were moistened.
I sighed lightly in my heart, thinking that when I first came down to earth, I would often miss my father and other people in the fairy world, and when I came to another strange place, I couldn't suppress the longing for my hometown.
"Or... You and I can go back to Chang'an. ”
"Go back? Forget it, they drove me out of the palace of the king of Chu back then, do I have to go back and bring humiliation on myself? Chu Ruozhao shook his head and smiled bitterly, then looked up at me and said, "How have you been doing all these years?" I heard that you eloped with Luo Yunting's kid, why didn't you come with you? ”
I shook my head and didn't answer, because I wasn't Xue Zhimo, and I really didn't know how to answer this question, and after a moment of silence, I looked up into her eyes and said, "What if... I mean, if I wasn't Xue Zhimo, you... Will you still be friends with me? ”
"Huh?" Chu Ruozhao was a little confused when he heard this, and said with a puzzled expression: "Why are you asking this decently?" ”
"You answer me first, if I wasn't Xue Zhimo, but I just had a face exactly like her, you... Will you still be friends with me, and will you sit down with me for drinks and talk? ”
"Of course you will, fool." Ruo Zhaowan smiled, flicked his finger on my forehead, and said with a smile: "Look at you, lively and cheerful, how likable, even if you are not Xue Zhimo, I will marry you Jinlan." ”
"Really?"
"Of course it's true, can I lie to you?" Ruozhao nodded heavily.
Looking at her serious expression, it didn't look like it was disguised, and I thought about it and planned to tell her the truth, otherwise it would be too awkward to get awkward.
"Ahem." I cleared my throat and said, "Ruozhao, actually I ...... In fact, I am not Xue Zhimo, the real Xue Zhimo has already committed suicide by jumping off a cliff, and her life and death are still uncertain. ”
"What?!" Chu Ruozhao looked stunned, then clapped his hands and laughed: "I said Zhimo... Why are you kidding yourself? ”
"I'm not kidding, my name is Zimo, I am the third princess of the fairy world, Xue Zhimo chose to commit suicide by jumping off the cliff in order to get rid of the marriage contract with the prince Li Hanyan, Xue Qingshan went to the bottom of the cliff to look for the body, but just happened to run into me who went down to the mortal ......"
I met Xue Qingshan when I went down to earth, and later I married into the prince's mansion under the identity of Xue Zhimo, and I finished it all in one go.
"This ...... It's too twisty and bizarre, you let me slow down. Chu Ruozhao raised his eyebrows lightly, and only after a long time did he look up at me again: "Zhimo, she really ...... Really ......"
At this point, she couldn't stop crying, and the big tears rolled down from her eyes, and I sighed softly, wiped the tears on her face with my sleeve, and comforted:
"At that time, her body was not found at the bottom of the cliff, which means that she may still be alive, and as long as she is alive, she will definitely return, but it is only a matter of time. You are her childhood sweetheart, and you should have more confidence in her. ”
Chu Ruozhao wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, nodded heavily, and said, "Zhimo will definitely come back, I believe in her!" Come, drink! ”
"That's right, drink!"
"Prince Hanyan is an unruly and eccentric person, how is your life after marrying him? He didn't bully you, did he? Ruozhao asked suddenly.
I waved my hand and sighed softly: "Alas~ Life is just like that, I have been bullied by them a lot, I am used to it." ”
"Alas, life is not easy, I am now living one day at a time, when I was a mortal, I thought that I could get rid of the customs by embarking on the path of cultivation, but everything was not as good as I imagined."
Chu Ruozhao sighed for a while and said, "I understand now, whether I am a mortal or a cultivator, I will not do anything, and this is the case in the past and now." But I have already thought about it, one day in the future, I will return to Chang'an, open a tavern there, or find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to live in seclusion, and live the rest of my life in peace. ”
"It's good that at least you don't get bothered by the world."
The two chatted while drinking, talking about trivial things in life, after three rounds of drinking, Chu Ruozhao was completely drunk, and he cried on the table, and said: "I really want to go back, when I was kicked out of the Chu Palace, my grandfather was already so old, and I don't know how his current body ......."
Her parents died early, she was raised by the Duke of Chu, and she lived a carefree life, but just three years ago, the Duke of Chu was seriously ill, and Chu Lingyin took power, and a blank piece of paper drove her out of the palace of the king of Chu.
At this time, it was difficult to control my feelings, and like a child, I cried bitterly.
Seeing Chu Ruozhao in such pain, crying loudly, my nose was sore, and my heart was also fluctuating, patting her shoulder and constantly speaking to comfort.
"Who should I be crying, it turned out to be that useless waste wild girl, noisy to death." A few sneers were heard not far away, and several young men and women, who did not hide the contempt on their faces, strolled towards this direction.
"It's been three years since I entered the door, and I don't even like those beginner disciples, and I still have the face to cry here?"
"Waste is waste, is this to win sympathy? It's ridiculous! ”
These people almost all looked like they were in their twenties, and when they came closer, they all mocked mercilessly.
My face sank, and I finally knew that Chu Ruozhao was really unhappy here, because these "pests" who bully the soft and fear the hard are everywhere!
I looked up, glanced at those people, and said coldly, "Clean your mouth!" ”
"Who are you? Before meddling, you must also weigh how many pounds and taels you have! ”
"It's pretty good, play with me?"
"Hehe, friend of the waste wild girl, it is estimated that it is also some unpopular goods, and you are not afraid of dirty."
I slapped my palm on the table, got up suddenly, and glared at the people in front of me: "I'll let you keep your mouths clean, and you have to inch in, right?!" ”
Chu Ruozhao, who was lying on the table, raised his head and hurriedly wiped the tears on his face with his sleeve to pull me back. Hiding his sadness and sadness, he forced a smile at a few people: "I'm sorry for a few, I drank too much, I remembered some of the past, and I couldn't control my emotions for a while......"
Hearing such words, I felt a pain in my heart again, I was kicked out of the Chu Palace, and it was a luxury to even see my grandfather. A man has traveled thousands of miles to come here, but he has to be harassed by others.
Because he missed his grandfather, he couldn't control his emotions for a while, and he cried bitterly, but in the face of the ridicule of these people, he still had to hide his grief and make amends to them...... A nameless fire in my heart suddenly surged into my heart.
"Waste wild girl, we don't bother to meet you in general, even if you cry to death here, it doesn't matter what we do. But this friend of yours, relying on his own appearance, dares to be disrespectful to me, what do you say about this? ”
These people all had mockery on their faces, came to the wine table, and looked down at Chu Ruozhao and me condescendingly, and one of them even showed a sneer, staring at me with a dead eye, and said, "The little lady looks good." It's just that the temper is a little rushed, why don't you accompany the master back to the room and let the master train well? ”
I glanced at him coldly and sneered, "It doesn't matter if you look like a dog, it's disgusting to be full of foul language!" I shook my head, poured myself a bowl of wine, and drank it casually and calmly.
"How dare you talk to me like that?! Master, I have to catch you and go back to training today! The man was so angry that his face became very hideous.
"Senior Brother Lin, don't come nonsense, do some dirty things to your fellow disciples, if you let the head know, be careful of your life."
"Looking at what she is wearing, she doesn't look like she is our fellow door, even if she is the same door, if you don't say it, I won't say it, isn't it just that God doesn't know it?"
