Chapter 16: The Dust Heart Moves

Tongyao Mountain, Zihua Palace, Xingchen Pavilion.

Silver Lingzi and Shenlu have been talking for a long time. The air also seemed to become more and more solemn in the constant conversation between the two. The last time the two of them had such a long talk was more than ten years ago. Time is not half merciful on this man's face, and the divine law has worked so hard for national affairs all these years that he is only in his early forties, but he has been stained with green silk by snow white.

"Elder Bai Tongyao's form in the palace is like this now, I'm afraid that in the near future, there will be a bloody storm." When the divine law said this, it was somewhat anxious and helpless.

Yin Lingzi didn't speak, just quietly looked at the eyes of the gods, those eyes full of the vicissitudes of time.

"Elder!" Shenlu suddenly got up and knelt in front of Yin Lingzi.

"Lord Godlaw, what are you doing?"

"Elder, and today's storm is rising, and the Yang family covets the current throne for a long time. And today's saint heirs are thin, except for Princess Ziyi, there is no one who can inherit the unification. Every word of the divine law is like a choked word, full of unwillingness and helplessness.

How could Yin Lingzi not know the helplessness of the divine law. If forced by today's situation, it is just that "there is no precedent for a woman to be the emperor since ancient times." Even if there was a queen mother in the previous dynasty to listen to the government, she would eventually sit on the dragon. ”

"How can I not know the divine law, it's just that Princess Ziyi has been familiar with Wenfu since she was a child and is good at riding and shooting. I think that when the Queen Mother was still there, Princess Ziyi, whether she was literary or martial, was not the most outstanding of all the princes. If Princess Ziyi is a man, where will there be a battle for the throne now. Ay! Wen Taowu is still the world's mind, and Princess Ziyi has the ability to sit in that seat. Rather than fall into the hands of those people, we should usher in a new era. ”

When Yin Lingzi looked at Shenlu and said the last sentence, the light flashed in his eyes, and he knew this man's mind. He did not want to meddle in the affairs of the DPRK and China. It's just that the three seals in Jiang Ming's body have gradually lost their effectiveness. If the seal is not lifted at the right time, there is a fear of life. And to unlock the first seal, the Qingcang Mantra, you need to go to the Great Xia Palace to find the wordless scroll.

"Hey!" Yin Lingzi sighed deeply.

On the other side, at the foot of Tongyao Mountain, the martial arts arena.

Wen Ding held the big knife in both hands, held his breath and concentrated, and then slashed towards Mu Shenghua with all his might. With the intention of ending the competition, I tried my best. It's just that he missed.

Mu Shenghua dodged Wending's knife with a shadow clone in front of everyone's eyes, and this time they simply escaped. Instead, the moment Winner withdrew his knife, he jumped up, the short sword in his hand spun around in the air, and then stabbed Winner in the neck. The short sword carried a black light, and when he was about to end, he suddenly raised his elbow and blocked the sword.

"Oh no, the wolf child has gone berserk." Jiang Ming frowned, because he was raised by wolves since he was a child, even if he could be like a normal person later, there was no guarantee that he would not show his murderous nature at all times. When his life is threatened, instinct overshoots reason.

Wonding's eyes turned red in an instant, and he raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar. Frightened the forest birds in the mountains, the surrounding wolves reflected each other, and responded with a long howl. The general knows that this is the wolf pack gathering his subordinates, and if this is really the case, it will inevitably cause huge trouble for this competition.

Jiang Ming listened to the footsteps of the wolves that kept rushing around, took out the piccolo from his waist, stood on the side of the viewing platform and blew it. This is the hunting song recorded in the ancient books of Qionghua, the sound of the song is soothing and melodious, and it can be passed on more than 100 zhang. It has the effect of calming the living beings, so after the sound of the flute, the restless wolves also compete to calm down. The irascible champion on the competition platform gradually quieted down, and the chaotic pupils gradually became focused.

"Winning the championship lost." Winner who regained consciousness bowed to Mu Shenghua, then folded his hands and said to Jiang Ming.

"Why? Big brother, how are you?"

"If you lose, you lose." Wending interrupted Jiang Liu's words, and then walked off the stage. He realized that his gaffe today was controlled by ambition on such an important occasion. All these years of practice have been in vain.

That day, the little girl kept pestering Jiang Ming, from the morning sun steaming the dew on the tips of the leaves, to the red glow tearing the white clouds in the west. Qixia has been sitting next to Jiang Ming, sometimes naughtily poking the waist of the little brother, and sometimes sitting in place boringly pulling the petals. Until later, he was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes, but he still didn't want to go back, and he stayed by Jiang Ming's side.

In the last game, the senior brother of Wenxiu Palace, He Mu, against the little junior sister of Fuhua Palace, Kikyo. The game took less than a stick of incense and ended with He Mu winning. Jiang Ming looked at his feet, and the little girl lying on the railing was sleeping soundly, and she couldn't bear to disturb it. He jumped down and said to the disciples of each palace: "The second competition is here, and the winner will participate in the last competition in half a month." The detailed content will be told to you by your master himself, so go back first! ”

It was getting dark, and everyone was tired, and they dispersed. Mu Shenghua was also pulled back by the sisters who came with her, and when she left, she glanced back, only to see the general walking slowly towards Bai Qixia.

The mountain breeze gently stirred the hair of Bai Qixia's sideburns, and the last rays of sunset that were about to immerse themselves in the valley fell on the little girl's fair face. Jiang Ming just stood like this, standing in the backlight, bending over to look at the little girl's sleeping face. I don't know how many years have passed since I did not do more, so why can't I see enough?

After a while, the little girl rubbed slightly, changed her movements and continued to fall asleep.

Jiang Ming smiled shallowly, reached out and grabbed the little girl's detailed waist, and the other hand passed through her knee and hugged her. The movement is extremely light, for fear of waking up the person in his arms. He hugged Bai Qixia and jumped off the viewing platform with a slight jump. Walking on the stone steps in the mountains, every step is so smooth, so slow. The bobcat, which occasionally ran out of the forest, stopped in front of Jiang Ming, and just wanted to scream, Jiang Ming blew a breath and closed his mouth.

The bobcat ran away, the mountain wind was quiet, and the mountain moon fell all over the ground. Jiang Ming walked home with Qi Xia in his arms, cautiously, "Brother Jiang Ming, Qi Xia likes you." The little girl's sudden dream made Jiang Ming stunned for a moment and lowered his head. Looking at the little girl who was getting more and more beautiful, she pouted and said, "Who said before that you would find a sister-in-law for yourself in the Fuhua Palace." ”

"I don't want a sister-in-law! Qi Xia," the little girl licked her mouth, moved towards Jiang Ming's chest, and continued: "Brother Jiang Ming can only like Qi Xia alone. ”

It won't be awake! Jiang Ming was taken aback by Bai Qixia's words, and suddenly his eyes didn't know where to put them. looked embarrassed, but seeing that the little girl didn't open her eyes at all, she called out tentatively: "Are you asleep?" ”

Except for the natural concerto, everything is so quiet, the little girl's breathing is very steady, and it seems that she is really asleep.

That night, after sending Qixia back to the house, he went to the cold ice cave behind the library pavilion. Every time he was upset, he would run somewhere to calm himself. The ice cave is full of thousand-year-old ice transported from the bitter cold land of the far north, and ordinary people are afraid that they will tremble just by approaching it.

Jiang Ming sat on the ice bed, and the appearance of the little girl kept appearing in his mind. I don't know when it started, the brother-sister relationship between them quietly changed.

Early the next morning, Qixia, who woke up, went to the courtyard and didn't see Jiang Ming, who was practicing, very strange. So he looked around, only to see Jiang Ming who was sweaty at the door of the ice cave. Lao Yuan shouted: "Brother Jiangming! ”

"Enlightenment."

"Brother Jiangming, how did he hide here to practice. Are you secretly practicing some forbidden books? "The little girl put her hands behind her back, and her two big eyes were spinning around." My mother said, you are going to the town to buy something today, take me with you! ”

Jiang Ming remembered that the master said that the world under the mountain is too complicated, and it is too easy for people to get lost compared to the pure heart and few desires on the mountain. And at the foot of the mountain, the woman's skin is the root of many evils, so he doesn't like Qixia to go to the bottom of the mountain to play. But the little girl's temperament seems to be made of curiosity. If it weren't for Qixia's obedient words, especially Jiang Ming's words, he wouldn't have known where to go.

"This!"

"Brother Jiang Ming," the little girl hurriedly pulled up one of Jiang Ming's arms and lifted it up, looking harmless to humans and animals, "Will you take me there?" I heard that there was a gathering in town, so I wanted to go and see it! ”

can't resist the little girl's soft grinding and hard bubbles, Jiang Ming can look cold and stern in front of anyone, but he can't be serious in front of the little girl. "Okay!"

"Let's go, then." The little girl grabbed Jiang Ming's arm and ran outside.
