The night is dark.

The cold star is lonely in the moon, the sky in the north is dyed red by the war, the southern city is broken, although it has not yet come out of the first month, but thousands of households are dark and gloomy, at a glance, it makes people sigh that the mountains and rivers are broken and the city is ruined and the grass is deep.

The tall walls stood beneath the sky, and a little bonfire was extinguished.

Su Jiu sat beside Lu Zhi with his knees crossed, and casually pulled over a tattered blanket to cover the bright red gem fire lotus.

Lu Zhi chuckled and sat up, his eyes were far away, and his voice was cold: "As my sister said, this war has hurt many people. There are probably not a few people in the world who are looking forward to my early death. If they knew I wouldn't live a few years, they would be happy. ”

Su Jiu was silent.

After a long silence, Lu Zhi finally confessed: "Sister, I was wrong. ”

He thought that the law of the jungle was right, but when he became the weak side, he realized that the word "justice" was so valuable.

He thought that war was right, but when he was harmed by war, he realized that peace in the world was so extravagant.

He was wrong.

Completely wrong, hopelessly wrong.

Millions of living beings died because of his obsession, and this sin cannot be atoned for the rest of their lives.

Su Jiu was silent for a moment, stretched out his hand and touched the young man's head comfortingly, and proposed: "Order a truce now, is it too late?" ”

Lu Zhi shook his head with a smile, "From the moment I stepped out of the Ghost Prison, I was no longer the King of the Ghost Prison. Now the court must be in chaos, and those powerful ministers must be fighting over who will ascend to the throne. What's more, the force that really controls the court is Chonglou, and it is impossible for the ancestor of Chonglou to bow to the Central Plains. ”

Su Jiu pursed his lips and had nothing to say.

She added some firewood to the fire, and after a long time, she suddenly said, "Chonglou Ancestor, what kind of character is it?" ”

Lu Zhi didn't answer and asked: "Does my sister think I'm cruel?" ”

Su Jiu lowered his eyes.

Lu Zhi smiled, "My sister thinks I'm cruel, but Chonglou Ancestor is a hundred, a thousand times more cruel than me." All of the top masters in the Ghost Prison came from his disciples, and his method of cultivating talents is terrifying, not to mention.

"No one knows when he appeared in the Ghost Prison, and for as long as I can remember, Chonglou has held the power of life and death. There is no doubt that the ancestor of Chonglou hated the Central Plains, more than anyone else. I have secretly investigated his past, but I have found nothing. I think that about his wife and children died in the Central Plains, which is why he hated so much. ”

Su Jiu calculated the time, if the ancestor of Chonglou was over eighty years old, then he should have come to the ghost prison more than sixty years ago.

At that time, she had not yet been born, and the Central Plains was still in a state of great power, and there were life lawsuits almost every moment, so it was difficult to guess which country he was from.

She exhaled in resignation and gently wrapped her mattress tightly.

The two talked for a while before each fell asleep with different thoughts.

When the sun rose, Su Jiu took a few people and set up a tomb outside Xicheng, which was regarded as a tribute to Old Man Jiang and them.

The carriage slowly headed towards the Central Plains, and the farther south it went, the more scarce the war became.

After the snow-capped mountains and prairies, each city is peaceful, peaceful, prosperous and lively, the road is not left behind, and the night is not closed, it is a very different scenery from the ghost prison, and Changsheng and Lu Zhi are amazed.

Everyone rested for a few days, re-packed their bags, and then went to Jiangnan again.

Just as they were heading south, Xiao Tingchen's convoy arrived at Tianlan Mountain.

When Lu Qing heard that his nephew and grandson had given up his life and chose his eyes, he immediately patted his thigh and sighed.

After sighing, he glanced at Xiaobai, who was hiding behind the plum tree and peeking at the guest, his old eyes showed a touch of helplessness, shook his head, and turned to the small kitchen to cook lunch for the guest.

Yuan Sheng sent Hua Chaojiu to the side room to rest, and proposed: "Go and see my father-in-law?" ”

Xiao Tingchen was worried about his daughter.

Speaking of which, he'd never seen his daughter before.

He said perfunctorily: "You go by yourself." ”

Yuan Sheng raised an eyebrow and watched him walk towards the backyard suspiciously.

He thought about it for a moment and chose to follow.

There is a thick plum tree planted in the backyard, and the branches are luxuriant at this time, full of clusters of red plums, and the snow on the branches is like a pile of crystals and jade, which is very beautiful.

Under the tree was a cradle of exquisite carpentry, a doll in a satin jacket, round eyes and bright chirping, looking no more than one or two years old, sitting obediently on a small quilt, holding a beautiful red lacquer rattle in his hand.

Next to the cradle, the old man with a good coat took a small wooden comb and carefully combed her with pigtails.

He was kind and kind, and the smile on his face was very happy, "Good boy, grandpa combed you with two sheep's horn braids...... What color flowers do you want to wear today? ”

Xiao Tingchen stopped abruptly.

In other words, this old man with a quiet expression is really commonplace?

I also wear flowers, and it's not disgusting!

Yuan Sheng stood behind him, looked at the picture, and also couldn't help but rub the tip of his nose in embarrassment.

Sikong Chen finally noticed them, and his old face instantly became very exciting.

However, he was a person who had lived for hundreds of years, so he quickly covered up his gaffe, dusted off the sleeves of his robe, and stood up expressionlessly, "Okay, why did you come to Tianlan Mountain?" ”

Xiao Tingchen ignored him, walked quickly to the cradle, and picked up the little envy fish.

His youngest daughter is white and tender, like a pampered rice dumpling, very cute and delicate.

He was not afraid to be held by him, he tilted his head, generously handed him the rattle to play, and said in a milky voice: "Uncle......"

"Wrong." Xiao Tingchen chuckled, "Call Father." ”

The little girl pursed her ruddy mouth and looked at Sikong Chen suspiciously.

Seeing that the old man bowed slightly, he said in a milky voice: "Father, ...... emperor"

She was too young to understand what the title of father meant.

But Xiao Tingchen listened to it, but he was extremely comfortable.

He couldn't help but take a heavy sip of the little girl's face.

In the end, it is his own daughter, she is really smart and well-behaved, and she has completely inherited Su Xiaojiu's gentleness and grace, which is completely different from Su Ran's little bastard!

Just as he was sighing, the little girl suddenly grabbed his hair stubbornly and said crisply: "Ride a big horse!" Father, I want to ride a big horse! ”

Riding a big horse?

Xiao Tingchen was stunned.

He looked at Sikong Chen, the old guy's ears were slightly red, and he coughed unnaturally, "Xiaoyu, don't mess around." ”

"Doesn't grandpa hurt the little fish?" The little girl pouted, her eyes were red, and she began to be coquettish.

She pulled Xiao Tingchen and asked him to put himself on the ground, while shaking two pigtails, the old god pointed to the three old men on the ground, "Hmph, I want the three of you to lie on the ground and ride me as a big horse!" If you don't obey, I want you to look good! ”

The corners of Xiao Tingchen's mouth twitched.

Where is this gentle and graceful copy of Su Xiaojiu, it is clearly a witch of the mixed world!
