Chapter 3: Self-Exile

[On August 15, Qiankun was drunk and duel with Nan Murong, North Qiao Feng, and the swordsman Yan Nantian. Jun Xiaoran, who has been somewhat familiar with the affairs of the rivers and lakes for half a month, naturally will not know it, and now the rumors of the rivers and lakes are boiling, and the two young heroes of the world, Yang Nan Murong and North Qiao Feng, challenged the swordsman who had been defeated by the hand of the palace master of the Shifting Flower Palace, as for Yan Nantian? Jun Xiaoran doesn't think that Yan Nantian, who is unknown but put on the list by himself, has no qualifications to challenge himself, if this is the case, then he will not add a snake after Nan Murong and Bei Qiaofeng, the two top young heroes in the world, and privately add a Yan Nantian with a huge disparity in strength.

already knew that Shen Luoyan had something to hide from him, and it was probably Jun Xiaoran, who was hiding his special identity, and he was not surprised by Shen Luoyan's words, and it could even be regarded as reasonable. If there were no secrets on his body, this wise and beautiful woman would not be highly vigilant under the deliberate disguise outside, he was not a fool and already knew that things were not simple.

In fact, Jun Xiaoran has never seen anything in this world very simply. In his eyes, any world is a bright and vivid rainbow color tone, but under this tone there is an unknown darkness and obscurity, perhaps some people are destined to be unable to lift these gloom and obscurity, but some people can never escape these obscure, cold, bloodthirsty gray world.

Although there is Augustus? Rotonchild, a noble surname, has a noble name, and he no longer remembers everything in the past, and his indifference to the resistance to the world from the soul level has been preserved intact. In his opinion, this kind of indifferent and cold temperament is the foundation of his survival in this world.

Quietly crawling and eating, sandwiching the dishes, except for the moment when the news landed, Jun Xiaoran paused for a moment, and saw anything from him. Jun Xiaoran raised his head and glanced at the woman who suddenly changed from elegant and atmospheric to a little nervous and restrained, and Jun Xiaoran, who had a cold temperament, couldn't help but feel a trace of warmth in his heart. Stretched out his hand and gently patted the shoulder of this woman with an extraordinary position in the martial arts, the corners of her mouth hooked a faint smile, and a pair of deep eyes with a rich dark aura looked at the woman in front of her who had been dutifully taking care of him, and said softly: "Ordinary? This is indeed an amazing identity, but I believe that this slightly amazing identity is not enough to deal with the nervousness that your body involuntarily shows when facing some Jianghu people with swords and knives on their backs, Miss Shen, you can choose to tell me together, or find another suitable time. ”

Shen Luoyan bit her red lip lightly, and her eyes flashed with some surprise at Jun Xiaoran's outrageous terrifying observation, but she couldn't hide the joy in her heart while taking it for granted. In the past, she was worried about whether Jun Xiaoran, who had lost the martial arts cultivation that was proud of the world in the past, would be able to survive in this deceitful world of rivers and lakes, but now it seems that she is too worried.

After groaning for a long time, Shen Luoyan finally picked up the chopsticks on the table and began to pick up the vegetables. She didn't continue with Jun Xiaoran's question, but asked in her usual soft tone: "You already know that you are the protagonist Pingfan who is in the limelight today, what are you going to do?" ”

Jun Xiao was lightly dyed, looking at the woman in front of him who was listening, the corners of his mouth hooked up a hint of a slightly evil smile. Whisper: "Do you want me to do as you want?" ”

Shen Luoyan's cheeks flashed with shame, and Chiluoluo's teasing or confession? Although she knew very well that the man in front of her, who had lost his memory, was Jun Xiaoran, who was amazingly talented and incomparably intelligent, Jun Xiaoran's performance was a little too bold and even explicit in some aspects. Such a slightly frivolous remark might have dared any other man to say in her ear. She will use his femme fatale tactics to make it unforgettable.

Suppressing the superfluous emotions in his heart with terrifying reason, Shen Luoyan's tone was slightly cold, and said: "The maid has the right to live and die with the master, but she has no obligation to bring the master into the whirlpool of death. Therefore, it is up to you to make a choice. ”

"A woman who has the potential to be great in the future." Jun Xiaoran secretly admired in his heart. Since Shen Luoyan was unwilling and unwilling to make a decision for himself, he was making a decision himself. Barely groaning, Jun Xiaoran slowly spoke: "I wish I could stay away from death, sickness, disaster, poverty, and many other worst things in the world, but I understand that hope is sometimes a misbelief, and it is impossible for anyone's hand to hold a wave or a shadow. ”

"Hence your decision?"

At this moment, Jun Xiaoran, who has an elegant temperament, suddenly burst out with a fierce arrogance that Shen Luoyan is very familiar with but at the same time very unfamiliar, and his body is full of indescribable dark beauty, like a dark monarch born out of nowhere, the corners of Jun Xiaoran's mouth are slightly raised, and the corners of his mouth hook up a trace of cold and evil arc, "Since death is willing to walk with me, then I will take the holy grail symbolizing victory in the sea of death, as long as I am willing, even the gods will not be able to stop me." In his heart, Jun Xiaoran said silently: "Because I am Augustus?" Rotonchild. ”

At this moment, Shen Luoyan, who has always been sensible, actually ignored the fact that Jun Xiaoran had forgotten the martial arts of the past, thinking that no one in this world could stop Jun Xiaoran's footsteps and take the fruit that symbolized victory.

――――

Jun Xiaoran is a decisive person, and Shen Luoyan is also decisive in major matters, and he never hesitates. Therefore, the two made a decision, and on the second day, they began to pack their bags and salute and plan the route. Aunt Qing, who lives next door, was curious and asked why you two are so busy, Jun Xiaoran smiled and responded that her mother was not in good health in her hometown, and she was ready to go back to live with her daughter-in-law for a few days, and then Jun Xiaoran also got rid of this ancient and enthusiastic Aunt Qing to help take care of the family.

Aunt Qing, who wanted to like this polite and atmospheric little couple, immediately patted her chest and assured that you would be like when you went out and what you were like when you came. Jun Xiaoran hurriedly thanked Shen Luoyan, who had a slight shyness on his cheeks.

In the evening, Jun Xiaoran and Shen Luoyan discussed the route after leaving Lulin Town. Both of them maintained the opinion that they were not in a hurry to go to Qingshan City and get drunk to make an appointment. It's just that the two disagreed on the route. Shen Luoyan advocated finding a few sword books to practice in a secluded place first, so as not to have the ability to deal with them when facing masters such as Qiao Feng, Murong Fu, and Yan Nantian. However, Jun Xiaoran advocated seeing the old people first, whether they were friends or opponents, as for the practice of martial arts, Jun Xiaoran did not advocate meditation, but followed the path of disagreeing with Shen Luoyan - to fight to support war.

If Jun Xiaoran is still the Jun Xiaoran of the past, Shen Luoyan will naturally not put forward half a sentence of rebuttal, but the current Jun Xiaoran is not the Jun Xiaoran of the past, although the foundation of martial arts is still there, but it is difficult to give full play to the strong internal strength in the body, so once you meet a strong opponent, I am afraid it will end miserably.

The two had an argument, and finally Jun Xiaoran threw out a sentence to persuade Shen Luoyan. "Instead of seeking defeat in stability, it is better to make dangerous moves, and instead of letting half of Jun Xiao Ran appear on the rivers and lakes, it is better to rise a reborn Jun Xiao Ran."

Shen Luoyan understands very well that Jun Xiaoran does not have any exaggeration or falsehood, and his words are basically facts. Even if you practice hard again, wait until the fifteenth day of August, no matter how shocking Jun Xiaoran's martial arts progress is, it will be difficult to defeat the world, the experienced Qiao Feng and Murong Fu, the two young Tianjiao, not to mention the Yan Nantian who has little mercy once he has a sword? Unless this time Jun Xiaoran awakens the memories of the past.

Shen Luoyan didn't want Jun Xiaoran to lose the last game if she didn't fight for it, she didn't want Jun Xiaoran to lose, so she finally agreed with Jun Xiaoran's opinion.

The second day, July 27.

Jun Xiaoran saw that the lights in Shen Luoyan's room were still on, so he pushed open the door and went in, only to see Shen Luoyan lying on a very simple and rough desk and already asleep. From Shen Luoyan's graceful and elegant temperament and unfathomable scheming wisdom, it is not difficult to guess that this woman who has never talked about her past has a legendary past that is difficult for ordinary people to reach. What else can make such a woman do this, except for "love"?

Thinking of this, when Jun Xiaoran, who had always had a layer of indifference in his eyes, looked at Shen Luoyan, a touch of tenderness flashed in his eyes for the first time, and he whispered to himself in a voice that he could hear: "If the heirloom jade seal lies quietly in the exquisite and incomparable jade seal box cover, it will naturally give people admiration, envy, and worship." And when the jade seal of the country is willing to give up the high glory and status for a piece of wood, and chooses to sink himself, degenerate himself or even self-destruct, how fast can wood in this world be truly indifferent? Jealousy flashed in his eyes, who had always been moody and angry, and who had treated many things indifferently about the incident.

Gently walked to Shen Luoyan's side, trying not to make any sound to alarm this beautiful woman who had not slept all night yesterday. tilted his head and looked at the rolls of white paper that Shen Luoyan pressed with both hands. The white paper was already covered with iron paintings, silver hooks, and handwriting with full male strength.

As he expected, the above are the lives of some people and the deeds, martial arts, personalities, habits and many other aspects of these people in the rivers and lakes.

Yesterday, he put forward the idea of raising war with war, and after Shen Luoyan agreed, he said that he would list the masters of the rivers and lakes that he had recently challenged and faced in more than a year since his debut. No, isn't it just going to be rushed out all night?

Lighting Shen Luoyan's faint hole, Jun Xiaoran hugged Shen Luoyan on the chuang and covered the quilt. For this woman who has always cared about him, Jun Xiaoran does not deny that he has a strong sense of possessiveness both physically and psychologically, but he will not do despicable and dirty things at this time.

Leaving his body as warm as nephrite and weak and boneless, Jun Xiaoran took a deep breath and sat on the humble chair that Shen Luoyan had been sitting on for at least six hours, and then lowered his head to carefully read the information that Shen Luoyan had spent all night recording.

Originally, he was going to leave Lulin Town today, but Jun Xiaoran temporarily decided to wait another day and leave tomorrow. (To be continued......)
