Chapter Thirty-Nine: Red Dust Tour Part II
Emperor Wu City.
In the dark bedroom, a lone lamp is shining.
"Husband, are the peach blossoms blooming this year?"
"Well, it's open, we'll go see it tomorrow."
"Well, hee-hee, husband is so nice."
"Laugh, that's good."
"Yes, husband, you are by someone's side every day."
On the bed, I haven't been out for a few years, if others don't mention it, Zixuan, the eldest lady of Emperor Wu City, who will disappear in people's memory, smiled at the person next to the bed with a pale face.
Lan Li sat on the edge of the bed, looking at his wife, smiling with a trace of tiredness that could not be concealed.
Her hair was as white as snow, covering the entire bed.
"Husband."
"Well, I'm here."
"Do you remember the first time we met?"
"I remember."
"You tell people, people... Some can't remember. ”
"Well, it was a full moon night, and you walked into my heart like a little fairy......"
In the soft voice, Zixuan closed her heavy eyelids, and her breathing gradually became steady.
"You were ..... back then"
Stretching out his hand and stroking Zixuan's hair, Lan Li subconsciously lowered his voice: "It's so beautiful......"
Ten minutes later.
Inside the study.
Lan Li, who had already changed into his usual clothes, looked at the uninvited guest in front of him, and frowned slightly: "You shouldn't have come to see me." ”
"It's almost time."
“......”
"I need a book."
"That thing is in Lin Lingsu's hands."
"But we're running out of time, you know, as the Chixian Shenzhou side continues to increase reconnaissance efforts, the interference left by that dragon girl back then has become weaker and weaker, and I can't hide it anymore."
“......”
"Why are you silent?"
"Hiss....." Looking at Yi Wuyue with a deep face in front of him, Lan Li subconsciously rubbed his eyebrows: "Give me some time, now is not the time for you to come forward." ”
Silent.
Yi Wuyue naturally knew that now was not the best time, but he really couldn't hide it.
In the face of the profound behemoth of Ling Xiao Sect, not to mention a dragon girl who has just climbed to the level of an earth immortal to disturb the heavens, as long as Ling Xiao Sect is given a certain amount of time, even if it is a martyrdom of a heavenly immortal, they can sort out the timeline!
Ghost Emperor.
Hades.
Yama Heavenly Son!
Fengdu the Great!
When he was hiding in the depths of the North at that time, if Lan Li hadn't come to the door with a large number of Heavenly Son Dragon Qi tokens, Yi Wuyue would not have been willing to accept this extreme challenge anyway, let alone fight with the group of people from the Ling Xiao Sect for one of the four most honorable seats in the world!
But right now, he has been put on the throne of the Ghost Emperor by Lan Li and Lin Lingsu, but he has no way out.
Zhao Yi on the bright side was still attracting the attention of the immortals of Ling Xiao Sect, although he was hiding in the dark, but after all these years, he was more or less caught by Ling Xiao Sect for some clues.
If it is discovered that the Ghost Emperor is him Yi Wuyue, what will happen to him?
A ghost immortal in the yang world, although he is equal to a heavenly immortal in personality, but in fact, he can really beat a person who enters the Dao? Or is it a great grandmaster like Dongfang Bai who has exceeded the standard of combat power?
In this regard, Yi Wuyue did not report any confidence.......
"Lan Li, our time is really running out."
"I know, I'll take care of everything."
"Hmmm......"
......
......
Time passed, and half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
Again, he coaxed Zixuan, who was even more haggard and her figure had become vain, to sleep.
Lan Li returned to his large study, rummaged through the bookcases, and finally picked up a sword book that told the way of yin and yang.
It's funny to say, as one of the best martial artists in the world, he hasn't taken a serious look at a book about martial arts for a long time.
"The way of heaven is not damaged, humanity is there, and it can help both yin and yang ...... internal qi"
"You haven't made up your mind yet?"
"When the sword goes out of the North Sea, it can kill the dragon, and the sword passes through the gate of heaven......"
"Don't read your broken book, even if you read the flowers, you can still improve your kendo a little?"
"Inhale the ...... of all beings"
"Forget it, I've obeyed you, Lan boy, your female apprentice has run back from Yungui, and it is estimated that in half an hour, he will be killed in front of you."
"Hmm."
"She slaughtered my demon seed, and now she's even more confused."
"I know."
"You know everything."
"Hmm."
"Then do you know that the old man's deadline is approaching, and there are no days left to live?"
"Hmm."
"You're not afraid?"
"Hmm."
"If the old man dies, he will definitely be devoured by the book, and the book will be revealed to the world in the future, and the first unlucky one will be your Lan Li!"
"Oh."
"I said...."Seeing that Lan Li ignored his love, Lin Lingsu's ** laughed more and more miserable: "You have become more and more unearthly, and you are becoming more and more like a real 'immortal'!" ”
"Immortals?"
Hearing this word, Lan Li finally put down the book in his hand, raised his head, and indifferently glanced at Lin Lingsu floating in the air: "No, I'm just too lazy to take care of you, an old ghost who is about to die." ”
"Ahem? Is it so straightforward? ”
"Hmm."
"Hey, you're upset that memory in your backyard is about to dissipate, and you don't have the heart to discuss this with me, do you?"
Lin Lingsu's words fell, and the sound of the sword and the sound of the study passed away.
Thousands of miles away, but all those who are outstanding in spirituality feel a kind of gaze.
From death ....
The murderous intent of the magic sword boiling, the killing intent that cannot be hidden.
Fortunately, the sword was unsheathed.
So.
Lin Lingsu still had the life to stay in front of Lan Li and talk to him about some of the things that he didn't have.
"Your little apprentice is going crazy."
“......”
"Don't stare at me, as soon as I die, I will carry a day's thunder for you when I die a day late, if you kill me now, it will only be you who is unlucky."
"Hmm... I know. ”
"Speaking of Zhang Sanfeng, you really don't communicate with him? If he suddenly runs out and makes trouble while we are doing it..."
"Not necessarily."
"Snort, it's really miserable, I said that you can be regarded as taking over his old miscellaneous class, how can the relationship be handled so poorly, and even this kind of major matter related to Taoism, can't you discuss it together?"
“......”
"By the way, I heard that our Ghost Emperor His Majesty came to look for you a few days ago? What's the matter, do you need to kill a dragon king for you to fill the hole before I die? ”
"Lots of mouths, lots of tongues."
"Hey, you're still tired of my old man's talking, aren't you?"
“......”
"Hey, forget it, don't talk about it."
Seeing that Lan Li was silent again, Lin Lingsu's grimace finally showed a wry smile:
"Blue boy, take care of me, an old man who is about to die, tell me about my disciple's grandchild, what are you going to do?"
"Who?"
"A female doll surnamed Li."
"Don't you worry?"
"yes."
"She'....."
"She's liked you for twenty years, and she's only liked you all the time."
"Hmm."
"Even if you can't give a name, you should always give an explanation, why don't you let me, an old man, close my eyes?"
"It's me who can't live with her."
"And then?"
"What is the situation in the world?"
"And then?"
"I'm sorry, but I only have one heart."
"Old man killed you!!"
......
......
Li Mochou came back by train.
It's peculiar.
On the carriage, a group of passengers dressed in ancient costumes sat by the windows of the car very slightly, talking elegantly about the various scenery outside the glass windows.
In particular, when the train enters Tohae-gun, you can see the endless Tokai Sea in front of you when you look out the window.
It's poetic.
During this period, there were talented people who saw the beauty of Dongfang Baichang, and wanted to get to know each other through poetry.
It's a pity that Dongfang Bai doesn't love poetry.
[Dudu, dear travelers, the next stop Wudi City is about to tick in five minutes, passengers and friends are ready to get off the train, remember to bring your belongings.....]
The soft feminine voice echoes through the long carriage with true qi, reminding the pedestrian of the destination of the next stop.
Dongfang Bai, who had listened to Lan Li's radio, had always wondered why his master didn't ask someone to get this thing out, but instead had to use this old way of transmitting sound.
At that time, she only got one such answer.
Our world is very big, so big that it is difficult for ordinary people to complete their lives, and the big world gives us endless novelty at the same time, but also gives us more patience, which is enough for us to spend a lifetime with our lovers and families, and can also keep more good memories for this.
Even if they are only fantasies in the end, they are better than nothing, at least hopeful. ’
Dongfang Bai didn't understand this passage, and he couldn't understand the strange thoughts in Lan Li's mind.
But the good thing is that with or without that kind of thing called radio, the world in front of her is not too big for her.
From Tiannan to the North Sea, hit the West Desert to the East China Sea.
Ten days and half a month.
Not too long for her current long lifespan.
Get out of the carriage and walk out of the crowd.
Dongfang Bai carried the long sword on his back, looking at the huge urban agglomeration in front of him that had changed at some point, and there was no longer the impression he had in his memory, and all he had in his heart was firmness and confusion.
"The guest officer, please, the newly killed overlord squid in the shop...."
"Sugar gourd, sweet and sour rock sugar gourd...."
"Candy man.... ......"
How many streets are there in front of you?
And how many pedestrians are there on the streets?
At its most glorious time, Bianliang City had just broken one million, but at present, the population of Emperor Wu City has already exceeded this number.
A treasure hunter at sea.
Sightseeing travelers.
The one who writes poetry against him.
A person who sells profits.
There are more, more literati, warriors, ordinary people who don't know why or why they came to this city.
"The city is getting bigger and bigger....."
Walking on the street like a stranger, Dongfang Bai walked towards his former residence according to the location in his memory.
A small Miyagi.
The home in my memory has not changed.
It's just that, the strange thing is that Fu Lu, who was supposed to be guarding the door to greet her, disappeared, and what appeared in front of her was Zuo Zhong, who was dressed in coarse cloth.
"I'm back....."
"Brother Zuo, who are you?"
"Old, old, hehe, my body can't move, Rong Gongzi doesn't dislike it, let Lao Zuo and I stay at home and eat a mouthful."
Zuo Zhong, who is now over sixty years old, smiled, since Lao Fulu died not long ago, he inexplicably inherited the other party's position.
The big butler.
Maybe bigger?
After all, the eunuchs in the palace can only manage internal affairs, but he Zuo Zhong is a real person above ten thousand people!
Power, he has.
Wealth, he has.
Fame, he has.
All the good things he once fantasized about seem to have come true.
But after getting all this, Zuo Zhong felt that it was not interesting anymore.
In his spare time, in addition to disciplining the 'unsuccessful' son in the family on weekdays, he is like a former Fulu, guarding the family behind him like an old dog.
Watch the sunrise every day and wait for the sunset.
Living a calm and indifferent day after day.
Thinking of this, Zuo Zhong smiled and waved his hand at Dongfang Bai:
"It's good to be back, Childe is waiting for you in the study, go, go quickly."
"Okay."
Nodding hesitantly, Dongfang Bai looked at Zuo Zhong's still strong physique, and shook his head a little uncomfortably: "I'll ask you to drink when I turn around." ”
"Hahaha, don't get drunk and don't go home!"
"If you don't get drunk, you won't return."
......
......
Life is full of ways to solve thousands of sorrows!
Dongfang Bai, who had returned, went to see Lan Li, and in the garden on the other side, two women were looking at everything that happened in the mansion with indifferent expressions.
Sit on a swing.
Swing back and forth.
I don't know how long I looked at it like this, but one of the women in a Taoist robe suddenly spoke: "Zuo Zhong is also old. ”
"Back to my sister's words, I'm not old, it's just that Brother Zuo has fought all his life, and my son is afraid that he will suffer from pain in his old age, so he wants him to stay at home to recuperate."
"Old."
"Childe said no."
"Green clothes, you are still like this, no matter how long it has been, you only listen to your son-in-law, even if he is talking nonsense."
"What my sister said is, who made Green Yi just a maid?"
"I heard that Miss Li has come here again these days?"
"Well, but in Childe's heart, there is only one sister, you."
"The Sword Demon?"
"Settle down by the sea, practice swords, wait for the time to come, and try the elegance of the long sword in your hand."
"Do you hate me?"
My sister laughed.
"I know, you've always wanted to give birth to your son-in-law, but I didn't want to, so I didn't let you get pregnant."
"Concubine, do you know..."
“......”
When the woman in the Taoist costume heard this, she was suddenly stunned for a moment, a little funny, and a little helplessly glanced at the 'big girl' who had become mature next to her and said, "Don't tell him about my coming today." ”
"The concubine knows."
"You're really smart, at least much smarter than him."
"Sister, you're joking, the concubine is just a maid of the son...."
"The maid who warms the bed!"
"Concubine, thank you sister for your affirmation."
"Forget it, your sister will go to bed early tonight, remember to ask him to go to your room."
"The concubine knows..."
The two of them didn't know whether they were arguing or laughing, echoing with the breeze between this small world.
The sun is still shining today.
It's still so bright and dazzling.
As for some of the episodes in the conversation, if you don't say it explicitly, who can guess it?
