Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Immortal (II)
Chapter 27] The Immortal (II)
γXiao Tangγ
What a lovely woman, when the Seven Princes and I walked from the path by the lake, they seemed to feel it and turned to look at us. Although it was only a slight glance, I couldn't help but be attracted to her, her appearance, that is, it is not an exaggeration to say that the country and the city are alluring, and the two eyes only know how to stare straight at her. The performance of the Seventh Prince was a little better than mine, and there was still no expression on the face of the thousand-year-old iceberg. I can't help but think nonsense, this is the person who came out of the palace, and the beauties have seen too much, so naturally they won't be as bad as me. Later, the Seventh Prince told me that he was completely stunned at that time, and that he was not as calm as I thought. In the end, he added viciously: "Nonsense, you think I'm a monk, how can I not be tempted!" β
Seeing the figure looming in the fog, it seems to be a fairy floating into the world, and people can't take their eyes off. Just as our four round eyes stared at her in a daze, the maid beside the young lady didn't know what to say in her ear. As if remembering something, she reluctantly glanced at the lake and drifted away. At the end of the day, he didn't forget to smile at us.
That smile was really flattering, even after many years, the Seven Princes never forgot that moment. Watching the figure as if he was in the rainbow bridge gradually moving away, the Seven Princes, who had never laughed, suddenly laughed, and then I realized that the Seven Princes' smiles were so handsome. That's the smile of a seventeen-year-old.
After that, the Seven Princes were a little restless, and they always liked to run to the lake when they had nothing to do. However, the young lady never seemed to be seen again. It can be seen that the Seven Princes always have some regrets every time they go back. But he didn't give up easily, and always waited by the lake before dawn every day, and only went home when it was dark and he couldn't see anything. I stayed with him, silently watching his swarthy and emaciated face, praying in my heart that the young lady would appear sooner.
Maybe it's my delusion, the young lady who thought she would never come back came to us again, but she didn't seem to remember the Seven Princes. When the Seventh Prince greeted her, she stopped vigilantly and looked at the stranger in front of her.
"What are you going to do?" The voice was crisp and tactful, and in his hand, there was a bright long sword.
The inexperienced Seventh Prince was surprised, and the young lady I remember didn't carry anything like a sword with her. Looking at her delicate appearance, the Seventh Prince smiled slightly and stepped forward: "Do you know how to use a sword?" "I secretly screamed in my heart that it was not good, the other party probably regarded the Seven Princes as that kind of gentleman. It's troublesome now, and I'm afraid I won't be able to tell if I jump into the Yellow River in the future.
Sure enough, the young lady's face flashed with anger, and the long sword pointed at the vital point of the Seven Princes from afar. I yelled "be careful" and threw myself in front of the Seventh Prince to protect him, ready to give this young lady a little color.
Miss's swordsmanship is exquisite, her body is light, although she is not as strong as me, but she will always dodge my attacks very well, and she can't hurt her, so she can't help it for a while. It's really strange, seeing that she is young and looks like a practitioner, I don't know what she is taught by. When we were distracted, the Seven Princes intervened in the middle of us and shook their heads at me. The young lady gasped slightly, glared at him and did not speak.
The Seventh Prince looked at her and asked suspiciously, "Wasn't it you that day?" The young lady, who had finally calmed down, glared at him fiercely again, "I am a disciple of the Tianshan Sect, how could I go down the mountain casually, and I still ran out secretly this time." When he said that, he suddenly seemed to remember something and hurriedly covered his mouth.
The Seventh Prince looked at her with a smile: "Did you run out secretly?" The anxious and annoyed young lady was about to say something with a red face, when she heard a soft call.
"Fluffy, Fluffy, where are you?" In the distance, a woman dressed in a lilac plum blossom background walked slowly, her voice gentle but sweet. The young lady ran over in surprise and didn't care about us for a while. The thick morning fog was blown open by the wind, and as if we were afraid that we would see the faces of the people who came, they immediately closed again.
I pushed the Seventh Prince beside me, and he gritted his teeth, no longer hesitated, and quickly caught up.
The footsteps of that young lady are surprisingly consistent with ours, making it difficult for people to notice. Seeing the vague figure in front of him, the Seven Princes stopped, and the dense fog in the middle spread out a little and closed quickly as if it was deliberately playing tricks on people. The person in front of him let out a low exclamation and crashed into the arms of the Seventh Prince.
Looking at the beautiful woman who was close at hand in his arms, the Seventh Prince took a deep breath, and before he could speak, a long sword was dangerously placed on his neck, and the woman named Fuwan said angrily: "Let her go, you pervert!" β
"Don't!" It was the woman in her arms who spoke, her pretty face flushed, "I was not good just now, don't hurt this son." It could be seen that the girl named Fuwan listened to the woman's words very much, and she took the sword hatefully, as if she was unwilling.
As if remembering something, she whispered a few words to the woman, hurried and fast. Even though my ears were good, I couldn't hear what she was muttering.
The woman smiled slightly: "Thank you just now." This is my sister Fleur, my name is Fleur, we are twin sisters, we are very similar, ordinary people can't see it. β
Even so, the Seven Princes never mistook the two of them. Later, I learned that although the two sisters were exactly the same in appearance, their surnames were very different. Fleur is generous and subtle, gentle and kind, Fleur is simple, surnamed anxious, but there is a different kind of charm.
The Seventh Prince and Furong had been sitting in the small pavilion by the lake talking, Fuwan was angry, and she didn't want to be between the two of them, so she had to hide aside, and she was still staring at the Seven Princes.
Looking at it, I couldn't help laughing, it turned out that this girl who didn't know the world would rarely be so sensible.
It was dusk, the sky in the distance was cloudy, the mist dispersed, and the mirror-like lake glowed jewel-colored in the light of the setting sun. The two people in the pavilion snuggled together, quietly watching the time pass slowly, silent. At that time, the prince no longer seemed to be the one who was not smiling and always frowned and hid himself deep in the corner that others could not see. At this time, he realized that the Seventh Prince, who was usually calm and calm, was only seventeen years old, and he was just a child who wanted to be loved. At that moment, the Seventh Prince showed his other side to the gentle woman without reservation. Maybe he was tired, the Seventh Prince rested his head on her shoulder, and there was a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth. Being with her seems to be his happiest day.
Knowing that she and her sister were orphans, knowing that their parents died in the war, knowing the deep hatred in their hearts, knowing that they lived in a different world from him. Even so, he was reluctant to leave. By her side, his heart was slightly calm. My life experience is well covered up by lies, maybe it's selfish, but it's always better than being abandoned and lonely.
knows that she and her sister are the heirs of the Murong family, and the other is the adopted daughter of the head of the Tianshan Mountains. Perhaps it was because the two families didn't want to see the memories of the sisters when they met, and the two rarely got together.
Knowing that she was a healer, he smiled. On the contrary to him, he is going to kill people, and she is going to save people. Is it heaven that they are destined not to have a perfect ending? Or is their encounter the end of the story? He didn't know, he didn't want to know, and he didn't want to know. All he knew was that, just like he could only lie to her for a while, he and her would eventually have to separate. Later, he would also rub the purse embroidered for him by himself, sit quietly, and watch quietly.
The war came suddenly. King Hui is capricious and not a trustworthy person. As soon as he said, dozens of horsemen came to the hut, led by a large internal guard. The Seventh Prince put away the smile on his face and said coldly to the visitor: "I am no longer a general. β
A strange sneer suddenly appeared on the guard's respectful face: "If you don't want to see her again..."
Naked threats. It turns out that the struggle for power is not something he can escape from hiding. Silently received the holy decree. The day has finally arrived.
"I'm going to the battlefield tomorrow." It was at the same time that they first met that he said this to the woman.
The woman's face turned pale, and she didn't listen to any more of his explanation.
Although it was an expected result, the gloomy loss on the face of the Seventh Prince could not be concealed.
