Main Chapter 26: Winter is coming
The cold wind was biting, the trees withered, and the group passed through the surrounding small countries, and then entered the Fengqiong Road, after half a month, finally stepped into the territory of Xiumen, and at the foot of Xiumen Mountain stood four or five young men wearing white clothes.
"See Yinye Divine Envoy, everyone has been waiting for a long time, and I also ask Yinye Divine Envoy to go to the same door with you to repair the door to rest."
The people bowed to each other and saluted, and then they followed them into the mountain.
Because the journey was far away and the weather had cooled recently, everyone was not in the mood and quietly followed all the way.
Everyone walked through a water pavilion two or three miles long between the mountains, and finally revealed the majestic stone gate, with two sharp and sharp characters carved in the middle of the black stone - Xiumen!
Entering the stone gate, winding up, through the stairs, and finally seeing the main courtyard.
Originally, this gate was not located in the mountain like other houses, but a very wide peak was cut in the middle of the mountains, and then the ground was leveled and the main hall courtyard was built. It is really ingenious, and now standing here, it is like standing on the top of the peak, looking around, seeing all the mountains at a glance, what mountains and rivers are all in the eyes!
Shangguan Qing looked at Lan Zeyun and seemed to like it very much, so he popularized some more interesting science for her.
"In fact, the most fun night of repairing the door, the sky is full of starry pendants, just standing, there is a feeling that you can pick the stars with your hands, that is beautiful and moving, a rare scene in the world."
Lan Zeyun tightened his clothes, although he had spiritual power to protect his body, it was still bitterly cold and cold.
"It must be beautiful, but it's so high, I'm afraid I'll die of cold in winter."
“………”
"Zeyun, can you have some immortal wind bones like the hundred schools of immortals, the temperament of Aoxue Lingshuang, if it were me, I would rather live here every day, morning and dusk, stars and bright moons, at your fingertips, isn't it beautiful!"
Lan Zeyun shook his head and sighed
"Your temperament, if you really want you to stay in this isolated place, wouldn't you be crazy, and the reason why the beautiful and moving scenery in the world can become praised and written by the world is just because they are rare, if they are really standing opposite each other every day, I am afraid that after a long time, it will be difficult to bring shock, and it is not very fresh."
Shangguan Qing pouted, frowning and glaring at Lan Zeyun.
"I recently found a problem, weird."
"What?"
"You've been talking a lot lately, a little... Well... How to say, too much. ”
“…………”
Everyone was stimulated by the beautiful scenery in front of them, and they all became active and excited again, and as soon as Yin Ye entered the main courtyard, he was led by the priest to meet other divine envoys and the head of the sect. The rest followed the other two or three priests to their lodgings.
On the second day, the sky was clear, and the cold glow of the morning shone brightly on the entire Xiumen, and at that time, Lan Zeyun had already gone out of the door to stand in a relatively remote place in Xiumen, enjoying the surrounding scenery.
"Do you like it? It's rare to see you react so much. ”
Lan Zeyun smiled lightly at the corner of his mouth, and he didn't need to look back to know who he was.
"Yes, I like it, life is short, everything must be enjoyable, and you must not waste such interest because of others."
Xi Yuan stepped forward and looked at the man standing there upright, the cold winter wind blowing, and the lubricated and shiny hair fluttered in the wind. He remembered that day, the hand he had held, cold and lubricated, like a summer holy product.
"Since you like it, we'll come back often from now on."
Lan Zeyun shook his head
"Xi Yuan, just take a good look at it, put the best in your heart, and the memories you will use for a long time in the future will always be the best-looking."
"That'...... Well, if you like it, I'm willing. ”
For a long time, the two were speechless, Lan Zeyun took a deep breath of fresh air, and then turned to look at Xi Yuandao
"Xi Yuan, what will you do in the future."
Xi Yuan reached out and grabbed a dead leaf that was blown by the wind, and then shattered it into powder with a twist of his fingers.
"Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven!"
Lan Zeyun turned his head to look at Xi Yuan's eyes, and asked in a sonorous voice
"What if destiny is unjust?"
Xi Yuan was in a trance, and the pupils of the person in front of him clearly reflected his shadow, the fate of heaven is unfair? How is it? This is a question that he never thought about, or rather......
"You're here, I've been looking for a long time."
Shangguan Qing gasped and stood aside, looking at the solemn faces of the two of them with some puzzlement, but then he seemed to think of something, so he quickly changed the topic.
"Let's go, the Yinye Divine Envoy asked us to go over and say that we are going to collectively go to the martial arts arena to draw a lot for tomorrow's competition."
Shangguan Qing said, and immediately stepped forward, regardless of the 3721 pulling Lan Zeyun to go first, only Xi Yuan was alone in the cold wind, and he was still a little unable to come back to his senses.
At that time, the martial arts arena was crowded, and all the people of the Ninth Heaven sent outstanding disciples to participate in the competition.
It was almost noon, and the priest appeared on the high platform, and the person spread his spiritual power all over the martial arts arena, only a few breaths, and the noisy arena just now was silent at this time, and almost everyone felt a breathless pressure.
Lan Zeyun thought to himself that although this person was wearing the clothes of a priest, this cultivation was too advanced and not simple.
After a while, the person on the high platform collected his spiritual power and said with a serious expression.
"Tomorrow, the competition will officially begin, wait a while, everyone will come here to draw lots, sign the heaven and earth Xuanhuang respectively corresponding to the four partial fields of the martial arts field, southeast and northwest, there are numbers on the top, from the beginning, the people who draw the same number of people in the same field will fight, and the person who wins will advance and start the next round."
The priest's tone paused, and the people below began to discuss enthusiastically.
Shangguan Qing clasped his hands on the side, seemingly praying very sincerely
"God bless, God bless, don't put me and Zeyun in a group, God bless, the believer is willing to copy the scriptures for a month in exchange for this wish. …”
“…………”
The priest's tone suddenly changed, and he became aggressive.
"Of course, there are still some things that must be explained! First of all, the Protoss competition is a major event of the Protoss, many Protoss will come to observe and supervise the war, our Protoss has always paid attention to benevolence and righteousness, so we must point to the end, do not hurt people's lives, and do not do dirty and dirty things for the sake of victory, once found, will be severely punished, can you understand? ”
"Got it!"
The sound of response in the martial arts arena shook the world, and everyone's eyes were filled with an inextinguishable fire, all for glory.
After the reading, everyone began to line up to draw lots, and the matter was over.
"Zeyun, Zeyun~ You tell me, what are you, let me see, I want to know if God blesses me and makes my wishes come true."
Lan Zeyun couldn't grind Shangguan Qing, shook his head helplessly, and then took out a red bamboo skewer from his bosom, on which was written the elegant and chic "Tenth." ”
"Wow!! Great, great, you are in Xuanzi, I am in Tianzi, that is to say, we can only meet at the end, great, God mercy! ”
Shangguan Qing was very excited, holding Lan Zeyun's bamboo stick back and forth. The quarrel made Lan Zeyun's head hurt.
Forced to be too noisy, Lan Zeyun quickly stretched out his hand, tightly covered Shangguan Qing's mouth, and finally didn't forget to complain a few words
"You can be happy, didn't you just promise a month's scriptures? Copy well, don't be lazy, when the time comes, I'll be the overseer, the day before, add another month! ”
"Hmm...!! Not!!! ……”
………………
At that time, everyone sat down in the banquet hall of Xiumen to participate in the dinner before the competition, and the elders on the table only politely admonished a few words, and then each found an excuse to go out, leaving only some juniors to play in the hall by themselves.
But the atmosphere in this hall is... It has been suppressed and low to the extreme, and it can be said that it is tense.
Originally, everyone was eating, drinking, and having fun on their own, but after a while, there was a sudden burst of disdainful laughter in the air.
"Senior brother, what are you nervous about, none of these people can fight! This ninth heaven can only be the world of my Kunlun, others are not qualified, this armor will definitely belong to Kunlun! ”
The words were not loud, but they were particularly harsh in the silent hall.
Some of the disciples who couldn't help it began to get up and choke.
"Who, such a big breath! Why don't you say that these three realms belong to your Kunlun? With such a character cultivation, you dare to come out and be embarrassed, do you have no one in Kunlun? ”
The person who accosted him seemed to be a disciple of Lan Cang. As soon as these words came out, there was a chorus of echoes around them, one after another.
The Kunlun disciple leaned back on the chair, not even giving a single look, and continued to disdain
"We don't have anyone in Kunlun, then I'm afraid you don't even have scum, why is the God and Demon Trial Conference held in Kunlun for a hundred years, don't you count it in your hearts?"
As soon as these words came out, they aroused the anger of the crowd, and the two of them talked noisily for a while, and then they got entangled together, and everyone around them watched the play, and no one stepped forward to help and persuade them.
Lan Zeyun sighed a little, human nature is sinister, and my ancestors did not deceive me.
"Enough! Ziyan, it's not shameful enough! I've learned some of this in Kunlun in the past few years? The cultivation of magic has not grown, but there is a lot of gossip and nonsense, you can't help it, my junior brother has drunk too much, and his mind is not very clear, and I hope you will forgive me. ”
It was the senior brother who was sitting next to the disciple named Ziyan who spoke, and after speaking, he quickly saluted everyone respectfully, and then pulled his uncompetitive junior brother to sit down.
This series of actions is really unspeakable, so it is only half paid, so I give up, and the people who watch the play also go to have fun by themselves.
"Huh?? That person seems to be... And I'm in a side field. ”
Shangguan Qing held the wine glass and glanced at the man, quite appreciative.
Lan Zeyun also looked at it for a while, and said with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth
"I'm afraid this person has something, Qing, whether there is a chance to discuss, I'm afraid I have to talk about it."
Xi Yuan, who was sitting on the side, heard the words and found it interesting, so he also interjected.
"Yes, yes."
Shangguan Qing was a little panicked for a moment, but he felt that he couldn't be defeated, so he comforted himself
"He's got something, and I've got it too! What do you say, I am naturally the first in the sky! ”
Lan Zeyun didn't hit Shangguan Qing again, only nodded in agreement, but had a different idea in his heart.
Although this Kunlun disciple relieved the siege for his junior brother, there was not a word of negation of his junior brother between the lines, and only a few words made the two sides turn their rivalry into jade silk, although he was respectful and good when he saluted, but the disdain revealed in his eyes was obviously stronger than that of his junior brother. The depth of this person's city is worth figuring out.
After the banquet, Lan Zeyun and Shangguan Qing walked out of the hall.
"It's been a sunny day today, why is it snowing all of a sudden?"
Shangguan Qing walked on the road, curiously looking at the snowflakes flying in the sky.
Lan Zeyun stretched out a hand, palm facing up, and countless snowflakes fell up, and then melted in an instant.
"Winter is coming."
