Chapter 29: Punishment
The next day, Huan Xiaobao took advantage of the gap to block Yang Bin at a corner of the Wufu Palace, which can be called fast and ruthless. That Yang Bin couldn't dodge when he saw it, in fact, he didn't hide at all, and those who could practice in the Wufu Hall were all the leaders of Taihe, and Yang Bin didn't think that Huan Xiaobao could pose any threat at all. In his eyes, Huan Xiaobao is just a clever female doll, and the little girl that his cousin Lou Cang likes, at least until today, he has always thought so.
"Huan Xiaobao, can't you match a steel sword? Why do you still use a wooden sword? I don't want to play with kids. Saying that, Danfeng's eyes narrowed slightly, and the thin eyelashes filtered deep and shallow light and shadow, and turned around and walked enchantingly, twisting as he walked, humming in his mouth, "The weather is so sunny today, so sunny."
Huan Xiaobao hugged the sword on his chest, put his right hand on his left elbow, rubbed his index finger and middle finger back and forth, and shouted at Yang Bin's long back: Yang Bin, I call you, do you dare to agree?
That Yang Bin sounded funny, and as soon as he turned around, the broken hair on his forehead was cut off by Huan Xiaobao's wooden sword, and the originally graceful strand of hair bun was poisoned by Huan Xiaobao. Shock and surprise flashed from that Yang Bin's eyes, "Huan Xiaobao, you.... You, oh, how can I see people, oh you" Yang Bin touched his broken hair pitifully, and his bewitching face wrinkled into a bitter gourd face. "How's it going, how does it feel? Now you know what it means to do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Huan Xiaobao held the sword and stood in front of Yang Bin with high spirits, such Huan Xiaobao is really bright and compelling, Yang Bin thought that his awkward little cousin's eyes are really not covered. For the broken hair that was sacrificed today, I have to let my little cousin marry this little ghost. "Huan Xiaobao, don't be complacent, I will still be the same Yushu in the wind in the future, but I have seen the two words on your arm for a long, long time, maybe for a lifetime. If you get married in the future, what will you do? That guy Lou Cang is not interested in a tomboy like you. You will definitely get married in the future, what if your future husband finds out that you have another man's name on your arm? That Yang Bin smiled evilly, shook his head habitually, and the broken hair on his forehead accompanied the rhythm of his body, falling in Huan Xiaobao's eyes like a small eggplant hanging next to the weeds, it was definitely a stunned image, but someone didn't know himself. Huan Xiaobao's lips curled up into a smile, his big bony eyes avoided the clever who knew the conspiracy, and said, "You want to scare me, there is no door." It's a big deal that I'm going to find someone to rip off that piece of skin. What's so hard about that? ”
"Haha, that's a special spell, and if you cut it off, it will continue to grow, no matter how many times. Oh, if you want to get a tattoo to cover it, I'm afraid your father, General Huan, will kick you out of the house. Tattoos for Wei women are taboo and are to be abandoned by the entire family. The other three countries also know that the women who have seen the tattoos are all good people. If your father is being pointed at by others because of you, how can you bear it? That Yang Bin was holding the eggplant's broken hair, teasing it with his hands from time to time, his demeanor was calm, and he was confidently waiting for Huan Xiaobao's arrogance to wither.
"Haha Yang Bin, you've exhausted your organs, and in the end you know what you're going to lose?" Huan Xiaobao smiled mysteriously.
"What I have lost, I am a complete outsider," Yang Bin said as a scoundrel.
"Aren't you very close to Lou Cang? If I kidnap Lou Cang, won't you be alone? Your move is really a loss for your wife and a soldier."
When Yang Bin heard it, this little girl spoke quite like a little adult, and she didn't blush when she talked about kidnapping men, and there had never been a woman who spoke so unambiguously, and she secretly admired it in her heart. However, I feel that this seemingly clever Huan Xiaobao is completely a slow donkey in terms of emotion. Yang Bin pretended to cry and said, "Our family will not take a fancy to you, you will die of this heart!" After that, Orchid fingers twisted her waist, waved her sleeves, and walked away shyly. For a strong little doll like Huan Xiaobao, Yang Bin thought that this trick might be useful.
Yang Bin's slippery and greasy expression made Huan Xiaobao suddenly goosebumps fly, and Huan Xiaobao suddenly understood why Lou Cang came over that day regardless of it, it turned out to be to force himself to dislike men! Isn't this self-deception! It seems that these two boys are really in trouble, should I go and beat the mandarin ducks? Huan Xiaobao couldn't help but think. If he is really a child, he will definitely snatch Lou Cang home to be his husband regardless of it, firstly, to make Yang Bin deserve it, and secondly, he will not be able to marry in the future to make people laugh at his Huan father. But after a hundred years of vicissitudes, how can you still think about this. Originally, I just wanted to teach the kid named Yang Bin a lesson today, because those two words always made her think of Lou Yuan, and she still felt a little heart-wrenching when she thought of the past, and she couldn't bear to look back.
When he saw that the person he liked married someone else, he still had to force a smile on his face, why didn't he wait, as long as he waited for half a year, the world could be his, and she could also be his. Maybe he never liked himself, those were just illusions, all he liked was power and status. Why did Lou Yuan let me meet you back then, and hurt me like that. The poison was not ordered by you, it must have been Xiao Yi who helped you, he was so loyal to you, you married his sister, for the sake of the Xiao family's honor and disgrace, how could he not plan for you. Why did you push me into a corner, why did you watch Luo Chuan Wuji pull out the dragon scales on my body piece by piece? Do you really think I'm a monster and I'm a devil? Huan Xiaobao thought about it and thought of "The History of the Nations", Lou Yuan, why did you allow the history books to be written like that, you erased your own sins and made me infamy, and you also deprived future generations of the right to know the truth. The more Huan Xiaobao thought about it, the more angry he became, and his heart suddenly moved, thinking that he was really angry, Huan Xiaobao immediately calmed down and kept telling himself: The past is like smoke, and everything is over. I can't think about it anymore, he is dead, and there is no more Lou Yuan in the world. But after all, he has loved, he has come, and he has cast a deep and shallow shadow on his heart, love is poison, and only those who have been poisoned understand its pain. Huan Xiaobao shook his head, muttering in his mouth: "Poison, poison, poison, Lao Tzu believes in your evil." ”
Huan Xiaobao chattered to himself, and suddenly a servant-like person appeared in front of him, Huan Xiaobao was startled, and saw that the person was wearing Taihe first-class servant clothes. Someone summoned Huan Xiaobao to the Shenying Hall for questioning. Huan Xiaobao listened to it.
This is the first time Huan Xiaobao has come to the Shenying Palace, Sima Yi and Lou Cang have already knelt there, and there is no sound in the hall at this time. Yili disciples have to bow their heads to show respect for their ancestors when they enter the hall, but Huan Xiaobao still looked at the tablets of the Taihe ancestors displayed in the center of the lower hall. The offerings on the desk are as new as new, and there are branch-shaped candlesticks displayed on both sides of the spiritual position, and the candles are joyful, and there is some loneliness and liveliness. Huan Xiaobao couldn't help but wonder: In the past, no one used the same way to pay tribute to the dead Dragon Chapter. Immediately dispelled this idea, who would pay tribute to the demon lord in people's mouths. Those who have loved themselves have gone before themselves. That guy in Lou Yuan will not dare or will not pay tribute to the dragon chapter that promised him the world. Who would want to put a pair of eyes in their hearts and mock the darkness in their hearts all the time!
"If you don't kneel down, it's getting more and more unruly." Kuang Zhe's voice sounded, Huan Xiaobao disgusted from the bottom of his heart, in the past, others knelt to me, but a hundred years have passed, Huan Xiaobao is Huan Xiaobao, and he is no longer the powerful Emperor Longzhang. The world has been divided into four countries for a long time. Kneel and kneel. Huan Xiaobao knelt down and saluted the Taihe big man who was sitting on a mahogany chair under the desk. Suddenly looking up and seeing Bai Ao's spiritual seat displayed at the top of the center of the hall, Huan Xiaobao mourned: Ao'er, Xiao Ao'er, you have never disappointed me. Huan Xiaobaoqiang set his mind and waited for Taihe's big man to speak.
Zhuge Feng, the dean of Taihe, drank tea leisurely, his small eyes were calm and waveless, and his face was slightly tired but majestic.
Liang Jiu said leisurely: "Huan Xiaobao, you are the first one in Taihe who dares to break the rules of the academy and strive for the same opportunity to be taught as male disciples." Can you tell me why the two of them were tense for no reason that day? Huan Xiaobao raised his head and met the dean's gaze, although that kind of gaze was not as stern and old-fashioned as the Kuang Zhe Pavilion Lord, but it penetrated people's hearts as if they could see through all the secrets of people. But who is she Huan Xiaobao, the old rivers and lakes in this hall may not be comparable to her qualifications, she used to always observe the officials' every move in front of the crown, in order to better analyze whether what they said was attentive or not, and no one had ever dared to look at her directly. Although it is not what it used to be, it also has enough skills to resist this compelling gaze. Although it was expected that Lou Cang and Sima Yi would not shake out the events of the day, someone must have already related this matter to her. Who is it?
"Back to the dean, the disciple knows his mistake. On that day, because he wanted to learn from Lou Cang, he never wanted to be blocked by Lou Cang. Sima Yi passed by and mistakenly thought that Lou Cang was going to be unfavorable to his disciples, so he rescued him with righteousness. ”
"Huan Xiaobao, you provoked them to fight for you, do you know what is wrong?" Kuang Zhe interjected sharply, and the candle flames on both sides of the earth flashed.
"The disciple knows his mistake" Huan Xiaobao knew that it was unrighteous to spend more time at this time.
"So what's wrong with you?" Zhuge Feng was still drinking tea, and his tone was flat.
"Back to the dean, the disciple's mistake is that it is unwise to provoke an opponent with a huge disparity in strength, and it is even more wrong to be unrighteous to kill each other and not dissuade him. Be willing to accept the punishment. Although Huan Xiaobao said this verbally, he was very unimpressed, who could persuade the two war maniacs. Anyway, everyone is young!
Dean Zhuge Feng bowed, and then looked at the two people next to Huan Xiaobao. "Lou Cang, Sima Yi, are you guilty?"
"Back to the dean, we are guilty and willing to accept the punishment."
"Then you go to the cold cave and the jade pond cave to face the wall for three days and three nights to sharpen your temperament. Remember not to say anything about yesterday's events. Although the dean's tone was light, he was not angry.
"You two remember that next time, you can't be a teenager and miss a big thing." Chi Yi said in a rather stern tone.
The two agreed in unison.
"As for Huan Xiaobao," Zhuge Feng seemed to be asking for the advice of several other bigwigs. Shi Kuang, who was just speechless, smiled slightly and said: It just so happens that I am going to repair the study, and I heard that this little girl is quite a carpenter, and she can come to help with the miscellaneous after class.
"If you don't let this little girl learn a long lesson this time, I'm afraid she will go to heaven in the future." Kuang Zhe said matter-of-factly.
Huan Xiaobao saw that the master of the Kuang Pavilion was about to speak, and immediately replied: "The disciple knows that his sin is unforgivable, and he is willing to go to the Turtle Bridge to receive the punishment. ”
Lou Cang and Sima Yi next to him were shocked, the people who had been to the Turtle Bridge were all dead, and even they didn't dare to guarantee that they could come back alive with their whole body. Lou Cang said: "This matter started because of the disciple, and the disciple is willing to bear all the punishments. ”
Zhuge Feng saw that the little young man in front of him had his sword eyebrows slightly together, and his eyes were calm. Although he is young, he has the style of a king. looked at the little girl next to him who seemed to be quite unappreciative, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously rolled up a faint smile. "Lou Cang is only afraid that you have a heart, and people may not appreciate it. Huan Xiaobao, since you boast of Haikou, life and death depend on your personal creation. When the two teenagers below wanted to say something, they saw that the dean's face suddenly changed, and everyone was silent for a while.
It is said that this turtle fish bridge is a bare bridge composed of four iron chains across the sky above Dianchi Lake. Dianchi Lake and Han Cave are adjacent to each other, and there is a flaming mountain in the middle, which is why Taihe has a pleasant climate although it is located on the side of the iceberg. Beneath the Turtle Bridge is home to a number of huge man-eating turtles, which inhabit here all year round and feed on waterfowl. This Dianchi Lake is once a small flame mountain after the extinction, after experiencing the vicissitudes of life, it has become a heavenly pond isolated in the clouds, because it has lasted for a long time, so people also call it Dianchi Lake. There is a stone gate to get here, and because of the danger here, there is an enchantment at the entrance. Shi Kuang escorted Huan Xiaobao here, Huan Xiaobao thought that he might tell something, but until the entrance, Shi Kuang was silent and did not say a word. Huan Xiaobao entered the stone gate, but he couldn't help but look back, seeing that Shi Kuang's face was soft, his eyes were far away, he smiled at himself, shook his hand, and left. Huan Xiaobao inevitably has a trace of emptiness in his heart, Shi Kuang is like a warm place for himself, Huan Xiaobao didn't dare to think about it, and thought gloomily: he is a dragon and a dragon destined to be lonely. Uncle Hua always sighed when he mentioned his father and queen mother: Wrongs, there is no escape from the catastrophe. When I grew up, my sister Huarou, who I relied on the most, always sighed to herself. Huan Xiaobao suddenly remembered the words that Hua Rou said when she was dying: "Ah Zhang, my sister is leaving, this eternal loneliness is left to you alone, my sister is sorry for you. I'm sorry, my sister is so tired. Wiping the tears that were slightly cold in the corners of her eyes, it turned out that she had long known that her Ah Zhang was a dragon, a dragon destined to be lonely! Huan Xiaobao was sentimental, and suddenly the stones on the soles of his feet shook, and he shrank into the water, Huan Xiaobao quickly got up and flew onto the Turtle Bridge, thinking that it would be good to stay up all night.
When the sunset disappeared at the end of the sky, when the lonely birds also returned to the forest, the sky over Dianchi Lake began to be filled with thin mist. Huan Xiaobao felt slightly cold, since he had no dragon scales, his body seemed to be extremely cold. At this moment of silence, the past hits like a tide. Those days when he sneaked out to visit the temple fair with his sister, those days when he traveled with Lou Yuan Bai Duel, and the past about Ah Chou and Lou Yuan all came to me. Lou Yuan, Lou Yuan, Huan Xiaobao shook his head, and secretly cursed that he was in the water when his head was in the water. There is such a lively past in the head, but what I see is such a desolate and lonely scene. Huan Xiaobao suddenly thought, let it pass in the past, he is not alone in Taihe, it is good to be a child again, not to mention that he still has someone to protect him, simple is the most down-to-earth. I Huan Xiaobao wants to be myself again, I want to live like a person, even if I am destined to be alone in the end, it is good to have good memories in Taihe.
With a flutter, Huan Xiaobao could vaguely smell the smell of blood, and just now he was meditating on himself, but he didn't notice that the four parallel iron chains were scattered with white waterfowl feathers, and blood stains were faintly visible. Suddenly, there was a surge of air flow on the soles of his feet, Huan Xiaobao got up and didn't settle down, the iron chain bridge was already full of black and swarthy turtles, Huan Xiaobao looked at the sky, the sky was going to be dark, only the green and yellow eyes of the turtles flashed with a strange light. Huan Xiaobao couldn't wait to knock himself out with a brick, and his heart was dripping blood with regret, blaming himself for his fast mouth, if these turtles were replaced in the past, they would be just small fish in their eyes, but now their skills have been greatly reduced, and there is a danger of failure from time to time. If my Huan Xiaobao died at the hands of these little fish, it would be a great shame. Huan Xiaobao jumped around on the chain, teasing the turtles and doing a game of eagle catching chickens. There were a few times when I was able to pass by those turtles that rushed left and right. The smell of sticky and bloody blood made Huan Xiaobao almost never vomit. Huan Xiaobao's luck was in the wooden sword closed his eyes to mobilize his mental strength, the wooden sword cut into the hard meat pad of the turtle like a sharp knife and made a dull and long rattling sound, the night wind rose, the sky rained blood, and the pungent fishy smell reminded Huan Xiaobao of the dusk when the army of the commander of the army responded to Lou Yuan to fight against the ghost party a hundred years ago. The sound of the knife slicing through the armor made the scalp tingle, and the blood was flying, mixing with the flying yellow sand, becoming extremely viscous, like black crows, falling in flocks on the bodies and faces of the warriors. Gradually, the viscous figure became thinner, the air became more transparent, and the Oni Fang King surrendered. He prostrate at the foot of his own land and promised to never invade the border people of the Central Plains again.
Huan Xiaobao thought that he was only sixteen years old at that time, and Lou Yuan was only twenty and two, the guy who was always expressionless, but with him, no matter how lonely and barren he was, no matter how cruel and ruthless the place was, his heart would always be at peace.
felt that Dianchi Lake seemed to be a lot quieter, and Huan Xiaobao was more awake than any other time at this time. It was as if the fight with those turtles was just for the sake of this moment of sobriety. Huan Xiaobao inserted the wooden sword back into his waist, mobilized his heart, and performed the water technique to freeze for ten miles, Dianchi Lake was covered with thick ice, and the Turtle Bridge was also swallowed by the ice tongue, Huan Xiaobao sat on the ice weakly, holding his knees with both hands, and a roar came out of his throat, "Lou Yuan, Lou Yuan, where are you, I hate you, but I miss you so much, I miss you so much, where are you." Huan Xiaobao finally couldn't control his heartbreak in the silent night, as if he wanted to cry all the thoughts and grievances of the past hundred years. At this moment, she finally understood that her sister had worked hard to love that person, and she had a white head overnight, even if she was injured and bruised, she never shook that love. At this moment, a hundred years later, she finally understands what it is like to love someone, love is pain, love is poison. But I know that I will still moths to the fire.
In the Yuchi Cave of the Cold Cave, the two teenagers sat far away, and they didn't talk to each other, and the atmosphere was quiet and a little weird.
Suddenly, there was a woman's muffled snort not far away, as if it was very painful, and the two teenagers suddenly got up and looked at the sound, only to see a woman in green sitting on the ice steps not far away, gurgling blood from her ankles, and soaking her shoes and socks. The soaked ice, from afar, looks like a dark red whirlpool. When the woman in green saw someone coming, her pretty eyes flashed a hint of joy, and she shouted loudly: Help.
Lou Cang and Sima Yi hurriedly walked closer, Sima Yi squatted down to check the injury of the woman in the woman's clothes, Lou Cang shook the dragon candle in his hand, and also squatted down to ask the woman's injury. The woman explained that she was Shui Bingxin, a member of the Holy Doctor clan on the Kunlun Snow Mountain, and that she never thought that the ice would crack when she was collecting snow lotus, and fell into the cave here, and was not very likely to be cut by the ice on the way to climb. "If I hadn't met the two beneficiaries, I'm afraid I would have died here sooner or later." The woman in green was grateful, and finally asked Lou Cang to help pick up the doctor hanging on the ice cliff.
Not long after Lou Cang left, the woman in green stretched out her double-forked tongue more than 20 inches long, but fortunately, Sima Yi was clever and quickly dodged. The woman in green turned around, and the legs under the gentleman turned into a green tail with a thick waistline, and under the bangs curled like copper coins on her forehead were thick and bewitching eyes, staring ambiguously at the handsome young man in front of her like a pine under the moon, and then made an intoxicated appearance, "Haha, I haven't smelled such a fragrant smell for a long time" "What kind of monster are you?" Did you run out of the forbidden land? Sima Yi looked suspicious, but he remained calm. Haha, such pure masculinity, it's really mouthwatering. What kind of monster am I, let you see you. ”
After saying that, the bewitching woman opened her blouse, and walked out of her fragrant and snow-white neck and upper body, Sima Yi's face immediately burned, and she quickly turned her head. The monster smiled arrogantly, and quickly turned into a giant python and bit straight over. Fortunately, Sima Yi had already taken precautions, and the moon was shot over accurately. But the giant python seemed to have expected that the young man would make this move, and Sen Sen's giant tooth could bite the moon death, and his tail swept over at the same time, hitting Sima Yi's abdomen, Sima Yi took a few steps back in pain and almost vomited blood. When the giant python saw that the young man was like a turtle, he laughed wildly, expecting the appearance of the prey begging for helplessness and waiting to be killed. But what she didn't expect was that the young man in front of her deliberately sold a flaw to her, and then cast a Martian spell, which hit her seven inches with lightning speed. The giant python made a whistling sound in pain, Sima Yi summoned the Moon Death Aerial Sword at the moment she opened her mouth, and was about to pierce the heart of the giant python with a sword, the giant python suddenly turned into a puff of green smoke, Sima Yi somehow, suddenly felt unable to move, only to wake up, the monster used the blinding method, Sima Yi hated himself for being too slow to react, how could he be tied to the ground with his hands and feet, and he couldn't move at all. Seeing that the demon snake spit out a scarlet letter, and was about to get closer little by little, Sima Yi mobilized his internal force to jointly perform the Mars technique, and the whole body was on fire, and the demon snake's bloody eyes suddenly widened, and his whole body was like a lightning strike, and he quickly withdrew. Before he could dodge, he flew in from outside the cave and stabbed the giant python in the abdomen. The python let out a muffled whistle and then turned into a green light and vanished.
Lou Cang and Sima Yi glanced at each other and said, Sima Yi spoke first: "Did you already find out about the abnormality?" Lou Cang said with a faceless expression: "When Shi Cai approached her, my dragon candle had a strange movement. Sima Yi smiled slightly and said, "You deliberately walked away to leave me the opportunity?" I just believe in your strength. "That Lou Cang walked forward and didn't look back." We still have to tell the dean about this as soon as possible, otherwise that monster will definitely harm the Quartet. Sima Yi said. Lou Cang said "um" and was silent. "Are you worried about Huan Xiaobao?" Sima Yi asked. Lou Cang still didn't look back, but a strange nervousness suddenly appeared in his heart.
