Second, Ximen Longjin

On the bluestone paved street, a strange car walked in a tuk tuk, attracting the side eyes of passers-by, because no one was driving, and the cart was pulled by a strange-looking beast.

Ximen Longjin lazily leaned against the car window, looking at the scenery on the street along the way with great interest.

"Master, the weather is still a little cool in early spring, be careful that the wind blows too much and you have a headache. Wen Ge lowered the curtain on the car window and said warmly.

"Hmm, but after a few decades, this Linyuan City has changed a lot. Ximen Longjin let him put down the curtain, retracted his gaze and turned to sit down, and said with a smile.

"Yes, the last time Master came back was when I was in the last Council of Elders, and fifty years have passed in the blink of an eye. Wen Ge smiled and took out the jade bottle from the bamboo drawer under the desk, and poured out a crystal clear and fragrant elixir, "Master, take a Qingxin Pill to relieve the bar." ”

Ximen Longjin shook his head: "It's very comfortable with half a point of drunkenness, and it's not a waste to solve it." ”

"Seeing you drunk, the head of the family will be displeased. Wen Ge persuaded very patiently.

Ximen Longjin suddenly crossed his face, remembering that serious face, he had to obediently take the pill.

"My lord! my lord! Lord Longjin!" As soon as I took the pill, I heard it from a distance, and there seemed to be a call coming from a distance, and I looked very anxious.

Ximen Longjin lifted the curtain suspiciously, and saw a man in a blue robe chasing after the car.

"Qing, park. She spoke.

The beast pulling the cart stopped.

The man soon arrived, he turned over and dismounted, and walked to the front of the car at a gallop: "Your Excellency......"

It was a man with an elegant temperament, although his appearance was not very outstanding, but his all-round temperament was very heartbreaking, at this time, he was looking up at Ximen Longjin sitting in the carriage obsessively.

"Your Excellency, ...... Finally back. ”

"Qin Lou?" Ximen Longjin was slightly surprised.

"Do you remember Ah Lou?" Qin Lou's eyes reddened slightly when he said this.

"Well, how are you all these years?" Ximen Longjin blinked his eyes, still a little drunk, and laughed.

Qin Lou was rescued by her from a small pavilion, when she happened to pass by, she happened to bump into him and jumped off the building to seek his death, so she rescued him, ransomed him by the way, and avenged him by the way.

"Well, since the adults left Linyuan City, Ah Lou has set up a small store in Beicheng District to sell some calligraphy and paintings, and his life is still passable, but he doesn't want to...... Saying goodbye to adults is fifty years......" Qin Lou lowered his head to hide the tears in his eyes, "If the adults don't come back, Ah Lou is afraid that he will turn into a handful of loess......"

"It's hard for you to still miss me. Ximen Longjin reached out and patted him lightly on the shoulder, smiling.

"My lord......" Qin Lou looked up at her, and tears finally couldn't help but slip out of his eyes.

"How do you know that I'm back in Linyuan City?" Ximen Longjin gently wiped away the tears from his face and suddenly asked.

Qin Lou was slightly stunned, and then a timid smile appeared on his face: "Ah Lou heard that someone had seen you in Wufang Restaurant, so he chased you all the way, and finally the heavens had mercy on him, and he saw your water-avoiding and sunny beast, so he ......" When he said this, it seemed that a wind was blowing, and his sleeves moved slightly.

"I see. Ximen Longjin squinted his eyes with interest.

That's when things happened.

The whole car was surrounded by a black flame that suddenly ignited, and the flame spread at an extremely terrifying speed, Qin Lou took a step back, looking at Ximen Longjin who was wrapped in flames with a complicated expression, and did not feel the black sparks on the hem of his clothes, and when he felt the pain, the whole person had been swept into the terrifying black flames.

"Ah......h

Just when he was trapped in the intense burning pain and could not be relieved, his body suddenly cooled, and he suddenly looked up at the unharmed, god-like woman in front of him.

"Your Excellency......" he muttered subconsciously.

The whole car had been burned to ashes, Ximen Longjin stood on the head of the water-sheltering beast, looking down at him, there was no trace of emotion in her dark eyes, and her whole body was covered with light blue mist, which spread at an alarming speed, swallowing up the black flames little by little.

"Didn't anyone tell you that the Huangquan Netherfire was dangerous?" Looking at the Qin Tower, which was burned beyond recognition, Ximen Longjin said lightly.

Qin Lou subconsciously opened his mouth to deny and explain: "No...... It's not me ......."

Ximen Longjin didn't speak, as soon as he raised his hand, Qin Lou's hand was raised uncontrollably, and he saw that his charred hand was tightly holding a small box engraved with a special flame prohibition.

Qin Lou had a look of despair in his eyes.

"Although the Huangquan Netherworld Fire is one of the five great strange fires, almost no one in the Nine Nether Continent uses it, and the reason is because it is uncontrollable, and once it is released, it will be the end of the same fate regardless of whether it is the enemy or the enemy. Ximen Longjin narrowed his eyes, "The person who gave you this fire box didn't tell you this." ”

Qin Lou sat down on the ground, his chapped lips trembled, and he didn't make a sound after all.

At this time, the surroundings suddenly quieted down, and the street that was still bustling and lively just now was suddenly a little terrifyingly silent, and the corners of Ximen Longjin's mouth curled slightly: "Illusion......

As soon as she finished speaking, countless arrows shot in, attacking fiercely, as if they were about to shoot her into a hornet's nest.

"The Yellow Springs and the Netherworld Fire, the arrows falling from the nine skies, are really a big stroke. Ximen Longjin unhurriedly sacrificed the twin dragons to wrap around the moon spear, and a clear dragon roar came from the spear, and the phantoms of the two dragons met the flying arrows that shot quickly, and they swallowed them all with just one of them.

From beginning to end, Wen Ge obediently sat on the back of the water-sheltering Qingqing Beast, and saw that she had solved the flying arrow, her beautifully shaped lips moved slightly, and she spit out one word: "Broken." ”

The illusion vanished in front of him, revealing a badly burned street, full of screaming and fleeing.

What Phantom Fox is best at is illusion, illusion is the life-saving trick of this weak race, and Wen Ge has taken this skill to the extreme, and it is undoubtedly ridiculous to cast illusion in front of him.

"Don't let the little mouse run away. Ximen Longjin spoke.

"Yes. Hearing the song, he immediately jumped up, his body was incredibly fast, and in just a few breaths, he pulled out a little girl with a round head and a round head from the crowd fleeing in a panic.

"Adults spare their lives, spare their lives......" The little girl who was thrown in front of Ximen Longjin by Wenge trembled like a leaf in the wind, she kept kowtowing, crying with a white face and crying pitifully.

"I'm the ancestor of illusion, are you sure you still want to pretend?" Ximen Longjin raised his eyebrows.

The little girl was stunned for a moment, and sure enough, she stopped crying, with a cruel look in her eyes, but before she could make a move, Wen Ge had already gently broken her neck.

Neat.

"It's someone from the Liu family. Wen Ge said softly.

"I can't wait. Ximen Longjin touched his nose, "It seems that I am very popular." ”

"Yes. Wen Ge smiled.

Ximen Longjin laughed, leaned back slightly, and sat on the back of the water-avoiding Qingqi Beast very chicly, "It's a pity that box of peach cakes." ”

"When I get home, I'll make it for you. ”

"Well, that's a blessing in disguise. Ximen Longjin smiled and looked at the Ziyi Guard of the City Lord's Mansion who came not far away to maintain order and clean the battlefield, and touched the soft hair on the neck of the water-avoiding Qing Beast, "It's almost dark this time, go back." ”

The water-avoiding beast rubbed her palm, and ran forward with vigor.

"My lord!" Behind him, a voice suddenly sounded, quite poignant.

It was the forgotten Qin Tower.

Ximen Longjin touched the head of the strange beast under him: "Ah Qing and so on." ”

The water-avoiding beast obediently stopped, and turned to look at the man who was sitting on the ground in disarray, burned beyond recognition.

At this time, his whole body was scorched black, and he was very embarrassed, how could he still have the slightest demeanor and posture before.

He looked at the woman who was sitting on the strange beast and looked at him condescendingly, his eyes were full of complexity, a moment of resentment, a moment of pain: "Why do you want to save me? Obviously I almost killed you, didn't I? Why do you want to save me?"

Ximen Longjin shook his head and sighed, "You can't kill me." ”

"yes, I'm just a lowly mortal...... Where can I kill you, it's just that I don't think I'm doing anything to make jokes. He chuckled lowly, but tears rolled down his eyes, "You shouldn't have redeemed me in the first place, you shouldn't have let me have unrealistic thoughts...... I have been looking forward to your return in the Abyss City every day, but you have been gone for fifty years, and if it weren't for the Council of Elders, maybe until I die, I wouldn't have had the chance to see you again......" He looked up at her stupidly, but the look on his burned face beyond recognition looked really creepy, but he didn't seem to know it, and was still muttering, " I'm worried about getting old, I'm worried that you won't be able to recognize Ah Lou when you come back, so I got a Dingyan Pill at all costs, otherwise, I'm afraid that when the adults see me today, they won't be able to recognize it......"

"Are you resentful that I didn't come back to see you?" Ximen Longjin looked at him, his eyes were as usual, he didn't care about his terrible face at all, and even slightly apologetic.

"They promised to give me a longevity pill that would increase my life span by 50 years. He shook his head, his eyes confused and painful, "I'm almost seventy years old, and I can't stand the second fifty years...... I'm not reconciled, I'm not reconciled......"

Ximen Longjin smiled, his eyes gentle: "You plan for yourself, this is understandable, but you should be careful, Huangquan Netherfire is fierce and domineering, they expected that you would be burned to death together, so they didn't plan to give you a longevity pill at all." ”

Qin Lou looked at her in a daze.

"Listen to the song, take a longevity pill and give it to him. Ximen Longjin sighed and said softly.

Wen Ge answered, took out a small jade bottle from the storage bag on his waist, and sent it to him.

Qin Lou took it in a daze.

"You're not lightly injured, take care of yourself. Ximen Longjin commanded in a harmonious voice, as if he had forgotten that the person in front of him was the culprit who caused her to be ambushed.

As he was talking, the purple-clothed guards of the City Lord's Mansion had already walked over, and when they saw Ximen Longjin, everyone saluted.

"I haven't seen you for fifty years, and it's hard for you to know me. Ximen Longjin smiled and waved his hand, and said quite kindly, "It seems that you will have a hard time in the next few days." ”

A group of purple-clothed guards were full of slander in their hearts, seeing the majestic water-sheltering beast, and then looking at this messy battlefield, such an iconic mount and such a terrifying destructive power, how could they not know that this adult had returned, thinking of the future fifteen-day elder's meeting, all the purple-clothed guards only felt that there was darkness in front of them.

"This is an old friend of mine, who was injured by the Netherfire of Huangquan, and I ask you to take care of it. Ximen Longjin said, and didn't look at Qin Lou again, only called Wenge to sit on the water and ask the Qing Beast together, and then turned to leave.

Wen Ge sat behind Ximen Longjin, and unconsciously glanced back at Qin Lou who was sitting on the ground, but he was facing Qin Lou's eyes.

It was a pair of extremely beautiful eyes, but at this time, his whole face was ruined, and only those beautiful eyes remained, and in those eyes, there was a deep sadness and despair.

He squeezed the small jade bottle in his hand tightly, and there was an expression on his face that seemed to be crying rather than laughing.

This is Ximen Longjin, who seems to be gentle, but in fact he is more ruthless than anyone else.

The speed of the water-avoiding beast was extremely fast, and in a few breaths, it had already left everyone far behind.

When I returned to Ximen Mansion, it was already in the waning days.

In front of the gate of Ximen Mansion, there was a long convoy, a scene of busy traffic, and it was very lively.

"Is this?" Ximen Longjin, who was blocked outside and couldn't get in, had a question mark on his face.

“...... I'm probably here to send the sincerity of the apology. Wen Ge stroked a broken sleeve and smiled.

Ximen Longjin had obviously forgotten about that incident, and she looked at the long line in front of her a little helplessly: "Aqing, go in from above." ”

The water-avoiding beast raised its head and let out a long roar, soared into the air, jumped over the long convoy, and landed directly in the inner courtyard of Ximen Mansion.

That long roar alarmed the people queuing up outside Ximen Mansion to pay their apology and sincerity, and also alarmed everyone in Ximen Mansion.

"Lord Long Jin is back!"

"It's Lord Long Jin who is back!"

After a moment of confusion, the servants of the inner court fell to their knees.

Ximen Longjin pressed her forehead a little helplessly, and before she could speak, several beams of light had already arrived.

The light and shadow landed, and the servants who knelt on the ground lowered their heads, and almost the entire rulers of Ximen Mansion gathered in this small inner courtyard, and the coercion brought by these big people who would not show up at all on weekdays made the servants almost breathless.

"Lord Long Jin. At the beginning, a thin, serious-looking old man bowed slightly.

The rest of the people behind the old man also bent down and saluted.

"Grandfather doesn't have to be polite. Ximen Longjin smiled lightly, looked at the few people standing behind the old man, and said, "Father, a few uncles and uncles, please don't be polite." ”

The old man who was called his grandfather by Ximen Longjin straightened up and looked at her: "Lord Longjin, do you know what happened to those people outside the door?"

"I guess I came to apologize because I offended my apprentice and was upset. Ximen Longjin blinked his eyes and told him frankly.

When the old man heard this, he looked straight at Wen Ge, who was standing behind Ximen Longjin, his eyes were shiny and cold. He has always been against accepting a charm fox who is good for nothing but beauty as an apprentice, but Ximen Longjin has become a climate, and he can no longer influence her decision.

Wen Ge always stood quietly behind Ximen Longjin, looking at his nose and nose, and his heart and mind, motionless, as if he was not aware of the cold gaze at all.

"The Council of Elders will start tomorrow, and Lord Long Mian is really late to return. Retracting his gaze, the old man spoke with a serious face.

"Over the years, I have traveled around, and I have been accidentally trapped in a secret place for several years, and I did not escape until a month ago, so I rushed back day and night, and I should have arrived in the morning, but I was ambushed by the Liu family in the city, so it was delayed. Ximen Longjin explained with a smile.

"The Liu family. The old man's eyes narrowed, and his murderous aura overflowed, "That kind of jumping clown dares to attack the Ximen family, it seems that the Liu family has been stable for too long." ”

Ximen Longjin smiled: "Yes." ”

Seeing that she agreed, the old man said coldly: "Since the Liu family dares to get along with my Ximen family, then let them taste the fate of provoking the Ximen family, Ah Hai, order to go down and eradicate the Liu family at all costs." ”

"Yes. A man behind the old man bowed in response.

Ximen Longjin looked at the man who responded, his eyes were complicated.

Ximenhai, that is her father, his daughter has returned from afar, she hasn't seen her for fifty years, and she is really indifferent.

"Lord Long Jin, the Dragon Yin Residence has just been completed and has been arranged, so you can live there. The old man turned to look at Ximen Longjin and said.

"Grandfather bothered. Ximen Longjin bowed slightly.

"Well, tomorrow is the day the Council of Elders begins, and please prepare Lord Long Jin. ”

"Yes, Long Jin understands. "Ximen Longjin should go down.

The old man nodded, and then led a large group of people to turn and leave.

Ximen Longjin watched them leave, until they disappeared into the inner courtyard, then he stretched his waist and yawned: "Let's go, go and see our Longyinju." ”

"Yes, Master. ”

Although he said that, Ximen Longjin did not go directly to Longyinju, but first went around to the Linglong Garden in the inner courtyard.

"Send in the Ziyun Pill and the box of beauty beads you got last time. She stood quietly at the gate of the courtyard for a while before she spoke.

“...... Won't you go in and see the fifth lady?" Wen Ge glanced at the closed courtyard door, and finally said softly.

Ximen Longjin smiled and shook his head: "Don't go in, I'm afraid of scaring her, you can go." ”

Wen Ge had no choice but to answer, stepped forward and knocked on the courtyard door.

The news of the return of Ximen Longjin has been spread, and only a small gap has opened in the courtyard door, and a maid poked her head out to look at the place where Ximen Longjin was standing, and saw that she was standing far away, so she opened the courtyard door tremblingly, and before Wenge spoke, she said: "The fifth lady is unwell......

"I'm not going in. Ximen Longjin said lightly.

The servant shivered, and did not dare to speak.

Wen Ge pushed her away with some annoyance, strode into the yard, delivered the things, and came out.

Ximen Longjin didn't stay long, turned around and left Linglong Garden.

"Go back and send the Nine Heavens Xuanyi that you got in Yunhai last time to Long Lan. On the way to Longyinju, the atmosphere was a little dull, Ximen Longjin paused, and suddenly said with a smile, "The last time I came back, she pestered me for a long time, saying that she wanted a magic robe that could defend and control the enemy, and that was very suitable." ”

Wen Ge said a little angrily: "She wants more than this." ”

"Speaking of which, you reminded me, Long Lan said that she wanted a high-grade mustard seed space, and it was our birthday in half a year, so let's go back to Guiyan Villa after the elders are over, and the birthday gift I prepared for Long Lan is placed there. Ximen Longjin ignored his complaints, thought about it and said.

Speechless when he heard the song.
