Three hundred and one chapters
Pale pink smoke wafted and lingered in the forest, and the peach blossoms in the forest were blooming brightly, shrouded in wisps of mist, with a bit of depth and mystery.
Deep in the peach forest, surrounded by clear streams, there are several elegant houses, clustered among a field of flowers and trees.
The window is open, and through the akane yarn, you can see a beautiful woman in a peach-colored dress inside who is turning the shaft to pluck the strings, with slender jade fingers and low eyebrows, playing a few buried melancholy in the bottom of her heart.
"Is that her? How... Could it be her? Leng Xuan couldn't help frowning in his dream, why wasn't it the person he wanted to see?
On the creek bridge outside the house, a man in red with long hair held a beautiful statue carved from peach branches, exquisite carving, and the lifelike shape was the beautiful woman playing the pipa in the screen window.
The statue's gentle and moving posture and beautiful face, slightly melancholy frowning slightly seem to be a little sad, and the light gauze and water sleeves are like fairies riding the wind, looking as if it is not just a wooden statue, but a stunning beauty with life.
To be able to carve a piece of wood so finely and give it vitality, the person who carved it should have a deep love and great attention to the original figure of this statue in addition to his exquisite skills, otherwise it would never be possible to depict the subtleties so vividly.
The man in red couldn't help but stop and sigh secretly when he listened to the pipa sound of 'strings the sound and thoughts' coming from the house. He can understand the lovesickness and melancholy in those pipa words, but those lingering feelings are not for him, and the expectations that make him full of them turn into desolation in this melodious pipa sound, and the loneliness and desolation of 'only seeing the autumn moon in Jiangxin'.
"The West Garden sweeps the forest pavilion every day, still... Enjoy the new sunshine..."When the sound of the pipa stopped, the beautiful woman in the window sighed faintly, "You... Will it still come? ”。
"If you don't see each other, you have affection... How ruthless? The man in red lingered on the bridge for a moment and sighed, then quietly went to the window and placed the wooden statue in front of the window.
On the desk in front of the window, there is a portrait sketched in a simple stroke, although it is only a few strokes of Liao Liao, but the charm and bearing of that person are perfectly displayed. It was the person she missed, not the infatuated person waiting outside her window.
The person he misses is thinking about someone else, and this love and concern from his heart can only linger illusory around her like the mist in the forest, even if he is reluctant, but he can't enter her heart.
He quietly turned away, the breeze blowing away the long hair that covered his face, revealing a delicate and handsome face, "Is that him?" Leng Xuan smiled helplessly, "A seed of infatuation, it is from ancient times!" ”。
Cheng Nan felt that his heart hurt when he turned to leave, it seemed that he had fallen into the screen window and stayed next to the pipa beauty, from now on, is he still himself?
"Hey, you're leaving? Why don't you show your face in front of a beautiful woman and let her know who you are? You can't flirt with a girl like this, you deserve to be single..."Leng Xuan muttered to himself, and suddenly remembered that he actually wouldn't, otherwise he could guide Cheng Nan to catch up with a girlfriend as soon as possible, and he could end this reluctant bodyguard job earlier.
Lan Yun'er seemed to be burned by the red flame in front of her, and when she chased out of the window, she only saw a hazy back in red clothes separated from the peach blossom mist.
"It's not him! It's not him... Why not him? I'm going to be ... Still can't wait for that person? Lan Yun'er clenched the wooden statue in her hand in disappointment, and a teardrop slowly slipped down the corner of her eye.
Pale pink tears soaked on it, the delicate carving of the figure seemed to be covered with a layer of dark dust, suddenly lost the original freshness and agility, gray and bare no longer the previous lifelike life force, just a very ordinary little doll ornament.
The man in red stumbled outside the peach blossom forest and fell to the grass, he slowly stood up holding his chest, looked back at the misty screen window, a wisp of blood dripped down the corner of his lips, fell on his bright red shirt like flames, and disappeared without a trace.
There was a long black-brown blade feather stuck in his vest, the sharp feather blade pierced his back, and there were black-brown blood stains oozing from the wound, and the feather blade was poisonous!
"Stupid!" Leng Xuan sighed helplessly, "It's really okay to be stupid, don't you know how to hide if you are sneak attacked?" ”。
Beyond the drifting mist, a man in a dark and brown robe was looking at him, a black and brown eagle feather in his hand, and a terrifying cold light flashing at the edge of the blade.
"Leng Kai? How could it be him, who was also in this dream? Leng Xuan was startled, and unconsciously wanted to get closer to see it clearly.
The man holding the eagle feather looked at the red-clothed man opposite with disdain, and asked very provocatively, "Your 'Soul Hunting Flame' was sealed by a tear of hers, are you still qualified to stay on the fire position to be the god of war?" It's ridiculous! ”。
"It turns out that Cheng Nan's previous life was really the god of war Xu Ru who left the fire position, no wonder he was able to hit that 'soul hunting flame' similar to a fire dragon! But what is this Leng Kai? ”。
Leng Xuan and Leng Kai were adopted by Leng Chengfeng since childhood, and they can be regarded as 'brothers' who grew up under the same roof, but Leng Kai's personality and personality are very similar to Leng Chengfeng.
Among Leng Chengfeng's three adopted sons, Leng Kai is the one who is most like him but also the one who is not used the most, from childhood to adulthood, even if a master is teaching them the same, Leng Kai's skills are far from Leng Xuan's.
When performing many difficult tasks and risky errands, Leng Chengfeng sent out Leng Xuan was a safe and highly perceptive Leng Xuan, and in terms of strategizing and controlling the overall situation to develop the Leng family, there was an unparalleled Kang Ran who suppressed him in front.
Therefore, although Leng Kai is Leng Chengfeng's most trusted confidant disciple, he has never been his favorite successor or the successor who can entrust his career.
However, putting aside the suppression of the two super talents of Kang Ran and Leng Xuan, Leng Kai is also an outstanding top figure compared to other Leng disciples, but he is unlucky to cast the wrong tire and add the wrong group, and it is impossible to get ahead in the Leng clan.
As 'brothers', they have also been together under the roof of the Leng family for more than ten years, and Leng Xuan has always felt that Leng Kai is not an extraordinary person, at least ordinary people in the world will not be so insidious and cunning and unscrupulous.
"You would put your heart into that wooden statue and give it to someone else, and you became a useless waste! What's ridiculous is that she actually used peach blossom tears to seal your exquisite heart without knowing it..."Leng Kai pretended to sigh, "How can there be such a stupid disciple as you under the throne of Xingtian God of War, if he accepted me as a disciple in the first place...".
"You deserve it too?" Cheng Nan scolded with a cold face, "Crazy thing, go back to your Cangshan, don't come to pester her!" ”。
Cangshan? Cangshan Demon Venerable, Cangshan Stone Eagle? No wonder he has an eagle feather in his hand.
Leng Xuan took two more steps forward, he wanted to stand in front of Cheng Nan. The task given to him by Lan Tianxing is to protect Cheng Nan, and he cannot be derelict in his duties no matter what the circumstances.
"Forget it, when I destroy you and borrow your pretty good skin to go to Xingtian and let him help me heal, then he will recognize me as his disciple and treat me with all his heart...".
Before Leng Kai finished his second sentence, the eagle feather in his hand slashed straight at the top of Cheng Nan's head. He is already too lazy to talk nonsense with such a vulnerable opponent.
Leng Xuan threw out a bunch of turquoise branches from his palm and wanted to block the eagle feathers, the feather blade not only bypassed the strokes of the branches, but also penetrated his body in an instant, and the castration still slashed towards the top of Cheng Nan's head.
"Hide! Dodge, run..."Leng Xuan found that his force value seemed to be useless in this dream, and it could not play any role in defending against the enemy at all, so he could only remind loudly, "Run!" You fool you really want to be destroyed? ”。
Cheng Nan didn't seem to see his existence at all, let alone hear what he was shouting, and said lightly with a sad expression, "As long as I am here, you don't want to step into this peach forest for half a step." The lord of my house is a god, and you must not try to deceive him! ”。
Are you still a hero with your life saved? Minutes are the rhythm of self-defeat, it turns out that this fool did not become stupid in this life, it should also be a historical problem.
Leng Xuan was so anxious that he slapped Cheng Nan on the shoulder, and scolded unbearably, "Now I know how you died, you were drowned by your own stupidity!" ”。
