"Then I don't know Miss Lu, do you know what this power is?" Tuobazawa's eyes were full of enthusiastic begging, and he looked at the gentle woman in front of him longingly, and said softly.

Lu Tianjiao was silent for a while, and said mysteriously, "'The hands are like soft wattles, the skin is like clotted fat, the collar is like a grub, the teeth are like a rhinoceros, the head of the mantis is like a moth, the smile is smiling, and the eyes are beautiful. It is said that she is like a fairy of the Nine Heavens who has fallen into the mortal world, and even the woman sighs to herself when she sees it, and she is a beauty with a peerless face. ”

Hearing this, Tuobazawa was stunned for a moment, recalling Yi Shangyun's conjecture in the secret passage, "This mysterious power is a mysterious tribe woman, she has a divine sword that can slay demons, her blood has magical power, and there is a sacred relic that can create miracles from generation to generation." ”

Then he couldn't help but look at the other side in distraction, and muttered to himself, "I was really guessed correctly by that girl, it seems that she is really quite different, but it's a pity that ......"

"What? As soon as you hear that the Guardian is a peerless beauty, your soul is lost, and your eyes are straight? Lu Tianjiao looked at Tuoba Ze's completely immersed appearance at this time, so he glanced at him, turned sideways and said contemptuously to him.

Tuoba Ze came back to his senses in a hurry, leaned into his ear and flattered, "Miss Lu's words are wrong, how can she be the kind of person who judges people by their appearance and forgets their righteousness." Besides, in the eyes of Zaixia, Miss Lu already has the most peerless appearance in the world, and there must be no one more talented and beautiful than Miss Lu! ”

When Lu Tianjiao heard this, although he turned sideways with a disdainful look on his proud face, his heart had already been turned over by his words.

"Beauty is beauty, but..."since ancient times, there is a thin life", no matter how beautiful the guardian is, she is not blessed to receive this God-given face, what is the use of beauty?" Lu Tianjiao helped the pair of red gold and white jade fish-shaped earrings on his ears, and said regretfully.

"What... The Guardian... She's dead? Hearing this, Tuobaza Ze was instantly stunned.

Since the battle in the south of the city, it has not only completely destroyed everything that he has carefully arranged in the Western Qin State for many years, but also caused him to be completely annihilated.

It was not easy to persuade his imperial brother Tuoba Hong to return to China first, and help him find a way to delay this in advance in front of his father, so that he could continue to stay in the Western Qin Kingdom to snatch that mysterious power and atone for his crimes.

In fact, he had been persuaded by him to plan to return to China with him. Unexpectedly, halfway through, he suddenly remembered Lu Tianjiao's existence, thinking that this woman had a special identity and must know something.

Only then did he turn back and make a detour to the West Qin Academy first, only to find out that Lu Tianjiao had gone to the Qin Palace's mansion for a while before the pass.

Just on the way from the south to the east of the Western Qin Kingdom, he was disguised to avoid the pursuit of the government, worrying about how he could see Lu Tianjiao himself in this heavily guarded Qin Palace.

Suddenly I thought that tonight during the Lantern Festival, she would definitely go out to enjoy the lanterns. No, he really bumped into it.

But at this time, I didn't want to be so quickly learned that the Guardian no longer existed. Could it be that after so many years, everything he did in Xiqin was in vain? Then how can he atone for his sins and go back to confess to his father?

'A woman's heart, a needle under the sea', and in Lu Tianjiao's heart, as long as it is in the eyes of the world

thinks that a woman who is better and stronger than her, Lu Tianjiao can't wait in his heart that they are all dead. But as soon as the words came out at this time, she thought that the person in front of her was from a foreign country, and she seemed to have a trace of concern in her heart.

So, just when Tuoba Ze was angry and extremely unwilling, Lu Tianjiao continued, "Regarding the guardian, some people think that she fell off the cliff and died, and some people are unwilling because they haven't found her bones, thinking that she just has amnesia and forgot her identity, and may have ended up in a corner of the Lingkong Continent. ”

Hearing this, Tuoba Ze excitedly grabbed Lu Tianjiao's arm, turned his whole body to face him, and then stared at her eyes and said expectantly, "What does that guardian look like?" Is there a portrait? ”

Lu Tianjiao was obviously taken aback by his actions, and immediately scolded him: "What are you doing? Don't let go yet! ”

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm just too curious about this mysterious woman, Miss Mo Wei, Miss Mo Wei." Tuobazer realized that he had lost his temper, so he hurriedly let go and apologized to him again and again.

Lu Tianjiao glared at him fiercely, tidied up his clothes, and was silent for a while, and said quietly, "The portrait of the guardian was ruined by someone, and the emperor handed it over to his father, and it is still being repaired." But ......"

"But what?" Tuoba Ze asked hurriedly.

Lu Tianjiao said, "However, I heard that each generation of guardians has a phoenix mark that has been passed down from generation to generation, which is their exclusive mark passed down from generation to generation. ”

"Phoenix Mark?" Tuobazed and silently repeated.

Just when the two of them were falling into their own contemplation, there was a sudden "bang", and then like a goddess scattering flowers, gorgeous fireworks bloomed in the night sky one after another.

The two people in the pavilion suddenly raised their heads to look at them along with the people who were cheering and jumping under the night sky.

Only then did I find that the magnificent celestial phenomenon of "Haoyue Headsky Illumination", which was rare to see, had long since ceased to exist.

Instead, the silent night sky was lit up again by fireworks, and people's faces were filled with happiness and joy.

"Tianjiao, Tianjiao......" Under the illumination of this rather spectacular fire tree and silver flower, a handsome boy suddenly appeared in the crowd, and the person was jumping up and waving to the gentle woman in the pavilion and shouting loudly.

Tuoba Ze was about to open his mouth again to ask something, but he quickly saw the shadow of the person in the crowd, so he changed his words and hurriedly bowed to Lu Tianjiao and said goodbye, "Miss Lu, the hour is not early, it's time to go back, then we will have a date later!" ”

"Well, you go first, I still want to stay here alone for a while, I'll remember to go to you, don't worry." Lu Tianjiao replied.

The man smiled and nodded, and hurried down the stone steps towards the other end of the market, where he soon disappeared into the crowd.

Lu Tianjiao stood sideways in the gazebo, silently watching his departing back. I suddenly had an inexplicable feeling in my heart.

It's like being lost in the middle of a desert and dying in the suffocating heat around you. In the middle of helplessness, suddenly appeared

A companion who can comfort his soul.

Although they are not familiar with each other, they are enough to use a few words to rekindle her tenacious will to continue to cheer up, so that she will not be buried in the dust.

At this moment, the handsome man in the crowd who had just beckoned to her came behind her unconsciously, and stared in the direction she was looking at for a long time, but it seemed that he had not noticed anything.

So, the man came back to his senses, and then with a "snap", a big hand with distinct bones slapped heavily on Lu Tianjiao's shoulder.

Lu Tianjiao came back to his senses in a hurry, his heart was shocked, he retracted his gaze, the anger in his chest was about to flare up, and when he turned his head back, he only screamed in surprise, "Brother, why are you?" What are you doing here? ”

It turned out that this person was Lu Tianjiao's sibling brother, Lu Tianlin.

Lu Tianlin didn't rush to answer her question, but asked himself, "Didn't my sister write back to the academy and say that she would accompany Princess Qin in the Qin Palace?" Why are you alone here? What are you doing here? Brother Fang, I clearly saw a man in this pavilion over there, who is he? Are you supposed to be ......?"

As Lu Tianlin became more and more boundless speculation, Lu Tianjiao seemed to be unable to listen to it anymore, so he hurriedly interrupted him, "Brother, don't talk nonsense, what do you want?" The man just... It's just an outsider asking for directions. ”

"Outlander? This big New Year, isn't everyone reunited with their families for the New Year, how can anyone still hang around outside? Lu Tianlin wondered.

Seeing that he was incessant and insisted on 'breaking the sand pot and asking to the end', Lu Tianjiao, who was already upset and irritable tonight, suddenly shouted at him with great impatience, and said, "If I say that it is a foreigner who comes to ask for directions, it is a foreigner who comes to ask for directions, if you don't believe it, no matter what I say, you won't believe it." Why, then, do you ask me, and why do I speak again? Aren't you also a foreigner who came to the Imperial City from the southern border thousands of miles away for the Chinese New Year? Why, is my brother still stubborn, 'only the governor is allowed to set fires, and the people are not allowed to light lamps'? ”

Looking at Lu Tianjiao's arrogant eyes glaring at him menacingly, Lu Tianlin instead explained gently, "Sister, look at what you said. How could my brother be that kind of person, my father and I were both ordered to enter the palace to participate in the Lantern Festival banquet in the palace. ”

Hearing this, the anger on Lu Tianjiao's face instantly turned into an extremely surprised look, and he wondered suspiciously, "Enter the palace by order?" Since my father left the court, he has rarely been summoned to the palace. What happened this time? ”

Lu Tianlin hurriedly comforted him, "Sister, don't worry, in fact, it's not a big deal." It's just that the emperor took advantage of the Lantern Festival palace banquet to ask his father about ......"

Lu Tianlin stopped as he spoke, leaned into Lu Tianjiao's ear, and continued, "Ask my father about the progress of the restoration of the guardian portrait. ”

Hearing this, Lu Tianjiao hurriedly asked, "Then how is my father's progress now?" ”

Seeing that Lu Tianlin didn't speak, but just sighed heavily, although Lu Tianjiao's eyes were staring at him motionlessly, his heart had already become numb, and he said, "It's not okay yet?" ”

Lu Tianlin then thought about it, and it seemed that there was still something incomprehensible......
