Chapter 18: Frozen Miles
At this moment, she is no longer the spirit master, back to the world, she feels a deep desolation, especially this embrace makes her feel a little strange, what has happened these days, she wants to know, but she is afraid to know the result.
In the end, she persuaded herself not to ask or think about anything.
Zhao Lingxue raised her face and said to Xiao Jiansheng: "The night is so beautiful, take me for a walk, okay?"
Xiao Jiansheng nodded lightly, he felt that Zhao Lingxue's heart was very cold at this moment, as cold as a block of ice, so he was very apologetic.
After Xiao Jiansheng got up, he took those somewhat cold hands and walked into the night.
As for other things, he didn't want to think about it anymore, he had entrusted many things to the master and the "father" who had never been able to shout. He just wanted to be with her well and make her heart warm again.
In the dark night, the desolate earth, leaving the crooked footprints of the two people, leaving the silent breath of the two in the cold night wind, this night, the two walked aimlessly, sometimes he would take her to rush to the realm of Haoran, overlooking the world under the night, and then wandering in the vast sky.
At this moment, the two broke through the shackles of this land and came to a completely unfamiliar area, standing here very close to the sky, very close to those stars, far away from the earth where they once lived, perhaps because the space was open, Zhao Lingxue's heart gradually calmed down.
Especially when she looked at the sky from afar, when the nine stars were about to turn into a plate, she saw the lights of the majestic city below, and her mood became much calmer.
At this moment, she suddenly said: "Since I was a child, my father has never let us enter his study, I really want to go to my father's imperial study to have a look, and I also want to know how my father is doing recently." ”
Xiao Jiansheng said in a low voice: "It is said that the emperor's family has many rules, and sure enough, at this moment, your father and the emperor should go to bed peacefully, why don't you go and see tonight?"
Zhao Lingxue hummed a little nervously.
In the next moment, the two of them rushed straight to the ground, passed through the floating clouds, suspended above Zhongjing City, and walked towards the coercive palace.
The palace was still majestic, but it was even more deserted, and there was no anger at all. After a while, a brightly lit study came into the sight of the two of them, looking down condescendingly, and through the gap in the half-open window, they could see the man holding a pen in his hand, but he didn't know where the pen fell.
The man hesitated, sometimes sighed, sometimes frowned, and the cup of tea on the desk had long since run out of heat.
It seemed that a long time later, when the man made up his mind and was about to put down the pen, there was a sudden violent cough, the man's body trembled very much, and the pen in his hand dipped in ink also trembled, and the ink splashed all over the paper.
After the man finished coughing, he wrapped himself in a single coat to protect him from the cold, and sighed again.
At this moment, Zhao Lingxue held Xiao Jiansheng's hand tightly, the corners of her eyes were moist, she couldn't bear to look at it, and said to Xiao Jiansheng: "Let's go, get out of here." ”
However, just as the two were about to leave, the man who had stopped coughing suddenly raised his head, walked bent over to the window, and pushed the window wide open, looking into the deep night sky.
"Cher, are you back?"
"Xue'er, my father wants to see you again before leaving this world, even if it's just to see you from afar......"
The man muttered to the night sky, and finally withdrew his gaze in disappointment, the glimmer of hope rising in his gaze instantly turned into endless disappointment, and the whole person's breath was extremely depressed.
Zhao Lingxue crouched on Xiao Jiansheng's chest, and didn't dare to look at the man anymore, she wanted to respond, but she couldn't speak, she could see that her father must be very tired during this time, especially tired, with a different look from the eyes of secular people, she could see that her father's longevity was not much, and at this time it was like a lamp that ran out of oil, and it couldn't last long, maybe winter......
Naturally, Xiao Jiansheng could also see it, he frowned, and then flicked his fingers, and a soft breeze left, closing the window completely.
After a while, the two came to the sky above Huaqin Garden, Zhao Lingxue finally mustered up the courage, took Xiao Jiansheng's hand and fell towards the lake, the two took advantage of the night to look at the calm lake for a while, and then walked through the purple bamboo forest to the luxurious palace.
It should be that someone is still cleaning, the palace is as clean as ever, and it still exudes the smell she likes, she took him skillfully out of the corridor, returned to the place where she once lived, and quietly lit a lamp, when the familiar scene came back to her eyes, Zhao Lingxue
Finally, with a long sigh, a feeling of exhaustion suddenly appeared, and her heart trembled fiercely.
After a few breaths, Zhao Lingxue smiled at Xiao Jiansheng and said, "I want to take off my clothes and relax, do you suggest?"
Xiao Jiansheng shook his head and quietly turned around.
Zhao Lingxue slowly untied the belt around her waist, began to fade off the shallow white skirt on her body, followed by a bandeau top, one by one faded down and stacked neatly, and then moved to the soft bed with small steps, stretched a lazy waist in front of the bed, and finally fell comfortably on the familiar bed, closed her eyes tightly, and her breathing slowly became even.
Xiao Jiansheng didn't approach the bedside, he walked casually through the luxurious palace, he thought about what to do for her as he walked, and finally, he stopped in front of her little study.
I don't know how long it took, Zhao Lingxue called softly: "You come here." ”
Xiao Jiansheng didn't hesitate to walk over when he heard this, he looked at Zhao Lingxue, who was lying on his back, and said with a smile: "Your Royal Highness Princess, do you need to beat your back or rub your legs." ”
Zhao Lingxue said lazily: "I want it, is it okay?"
Xiao Jiansheng said calmly: "Naturally, as long as you want, I can serve you for the rest of your life." ”
Zhao Lingxue pursed her lips and said with a smile: "One life is too short, it is better to live for a long time." ”
Xiao Jiansheng hummed lightly, motioned for Zhao Lingxue to climb down, and then sat on the edge of the bed gently, rubbed his hands warm, and carefully thrashed Zhao Lingxue's straight legs, the strength was just right, and the speed was just right, and his hand went up along her body little by little.
When the hammer hit the waist, Zhao Lingxue suddenly hummed a little unnaturally, and then whispered: "Okay...... Hold me tight?"
This time, Xiao Jiansheng hesitated, but in the end he still relied on her.
On the soft bed, the two of them were relieved, and there was a hot atmosphere around the time, Xiao Jiansheng admired the body in front of him that was softer than the bed, and gradually felt a little out of breath......
Xiao Jiansheng reminisced about the taste of the past, and heard Zhao Lingxue whisper in his ear: "Providence is like this, no one knows what will happen after dawn, maybe this land has completely become a wasteland, maybe there is still a breath of life, but no matter what, please kiss me tonight, hard!"
Suddenly, the lights went out, and the room was unusually quiet, except for the sound of wind and rain.
I don't know how long it took, Xiao Jiansheng was also tired, and Zhao Lingxue only had the strength to breathe, she took a deep breath and asked in a slightly interfering voice: "In this way, we can't be considered married?"
Xiao Jiansheng smiled and said: "It should be counted, but according to the old custom, marriage must be approved and blessed by relatives, and the media must marry ......."
Zhao Lingxue gently touched Xiao Jiansheng's cheek, and said shyly: "It's just a secular gift, we can make up for it in the future, and I believe that after this time, my father will bless us." ”
“......”
After a few storms, both of them were extremely tired, hugged each other, and said voices that only each other could hear.
"In the future, I won't live in the palace, I hope to get up and see the mountains and water, and then see you. ”
"Why didn't you see me first? Is it in your heart that I am not as important as the mountains and rivers?"
"It's stupid, because you are my mountains and waters. ”
"Yes, my palace master. ”
"It's too numb, in the future, it's enough to be a princess for you, and the servant only needs you......"
I don't know how long it took, Zhao Lingxue reluctantly left the soft bed, she specially found a red dress, carefully put it on, and smiled with relief when she listened to his cry of falling asleep because of exhaustion.
When the night was about to be dispelled, and a glimmer of light was faintly transmitted on the edge of the sky, Xiao Jiansheng suddenly got up in convulsion, and subconsciously wiped the sweat from his forehead, when he didn't see Zhao Lingxue at first sight, he didn't have time to change his clothes and rushed out to look for it.
At this moment, Zhao Lingxue smiled and said, "The sky has fallen, or has the ground fallen?"
Xiao Jiansheng smiled embarrassedly: "It's not important to lose you." ”
When Xiao Jiansheng looked at Zhao Lingxue, who was sitting in front of the mirror and carefully groomed, he walked over cautiously and said in a low voice: "After the matter is completed, I am ready to return my luck to the Fengtian Dynasty, maybe only then can your father prolong his life and the Zhao family continue to prosper." ”
Zhao Lingxue's face struggled, and she was a little embarrassed: "But...... In case you lose your luck, you ......"
Xiao Jiansheng knew that Zhao Lingxue wanted to say that if he ran out of luck, he would continue to become a dead man, so
, he stroked her snow-white hair and comforted her: "No, at most, it will just become an ordinary person, and it's a big deal to practice again." ”
In the end, Zhao Lingxue's worried words did not come out, she got up and looked at him and said: "After the spiritual domain is wiped out, I will also try to sow the spiritual root on this land, and return the spiritual power to the heavens, maybe there will be no spirit lord in the future, and then people can live freely and choose their own lives freely, and only then can they live with true meaning." ”
......
After the sky was not officially lit up, Xiao Jiansheng and Zhao Lingxue quietly left Huaqin Garden, the two were still walking casually, as if they were ready to see all the corners of the world, according to Xiao Jiansheng's thoughts, the shadows of the two of them who were attached to each other returned to Wuji Palace first.
In Wuji Palace, they didn't bother anyone, Xiao Jiansheng just took care of the vegetable field left by his master, and then the two walked down the mountain together.
As soon as they left the Shenlong Lake dock, the two met Lu Zizi and Su Qianqian, and Xiao Jiansheng knew that it was not good, so he began to frown.
Sure enough, Lu Zi's son-in-law laughed and said straight to the point: "Brother Xiao, do you remember what you promised me?"
Xiao Jiansheng smiled and said, "I'm sorry, there have been so many things recently, I really forgot, do you want to say it again?"
Lu Zi's son-in-law rolled his eyes fiercely, and said in a heavy voice: "Once you promised me to kill Ma Xingkong with the dragon clan's divine art, after this end, you will go to the South China Sea area according to my request, whether it is a long residence or a short stay, in short, the South China Sea area will be left for you to take care of in the future......
Before Lu Zi's son-in-law finished speaking, Xiao Jiansheng directly interrupted his words and said with a smile: "I'm really sorry, it may be that you misunderstood what I meant, it is true that I said after killing Ma Xingkong, but the days after that are still long, and can you change places, Xiao Mou grew up in the north since he was a child, and I am afraid that he will not adapt to the soil and water when he goes to the South China Sea." ”
Lu Zizi exhaled a long breath of unhappiness, looked at Xiao Jiansheng and said with slight displeasure: "Then in your opinion, when can you leave?"
Xiao Jiansheng smiled faintly: "There have been a lot of things recently, not to mention that this end of the law is very painful, you always give me a little time to recuperate my body, and besides, my wife also said that she wants to see the whole world and then choose a place to live." ”
Lu Zizi looked at Zhao Lingxue with a solemn look, and when Zhao Lingxue smiled at him apologetically and relieved, Lu Zizi finally sighed and said, "Okay, look at the little princess's face for the time being, let you live a few days of happy life." ”
Xiao Jiansheng hummed several times in a row, and hurriedly took Zhao Lingxue out of the land of right and wrong.
When the two walked away, Lu Zi's son-in-law looked at Xiao Jiansheng's back and said dissatisfiedly: "I was really guessed correctly by the master, this kid is unreliable." ”
Su Qianqian smiled slightly: "But he is indeed our most powerful chess piece in the future." ”
Lu Zizi frowned and said, "That's right, then let them go first." ”
Su Qianqian snuggled up, gently leaned on Lu Zizi's shoulder, and said in a low voice: "I envy them, why don't we also take a few years off from the master?"
......
On this day, the sun really did not rise, or was blocked by something, in short, the once ten thousand rays of light no longer existed, and the whole land fell into a gray dead silence, which should have been a hot summer, and the temperature dropped sharply, which made the people who had multiplied this land for generations feel the fear of life.
The conquest army stopped fighting and began to return home in trepidation.
People wandering the streets began to shiver behind closed doors.
The flowers that bloom on the top of the trees begin to wither for no apparent reason, until they fall with the wind.
The grass on the earth, from withered yellow to earthy yellow, gradually lost the signs of life, about noon, the sky fluttered snowflakes, the snowflakes did not melt into water, but turned into hard ice, more and more, thicker and thicker, everything on the earth was frozen, first the grass was pressed under the thick ice, and then the tall trees, in just half a day, were frozen up.
In the afternoon, Xiao Jiansheng and Zhao Lingxue walked on the way back to the mud well, and what they saw along the road was white, and they could no longer see a trace of the appearance of the human world.
And this ice is not ordinary ice, it is more than a thousand times harder than ordinary ice, even if Xiao Jiansheng and Zhao Lingxue have the means to fuse the ice layer they have passed, but after a while, they will return to their original frozen state again.
However, the bitter cold still has no intention of stopping, vowing to freeze for thousands of miles.
