Chapter 3: The Fall of the Nine Dragons

In the blink of an eye, it was seven days, and Su Yan did not mention the matter of that day again, and Su Lian's punishment was also stopped. In two days, it will be the Prayer Cang Festival, and the Su family, as the number one family in Nanyun, naturally has to contribute money and efforts to prepare the festival tributes, and the overwhelming chores will pass.

After the end of the day, Su Lan and Hua Song walked back with a smile as usual. Approaching the Prayer Warehouse Festival, each family wants to purchase sacrifices and other things, and the vendors within a radius of dozens of miles are concentrated in Nanyun City, and the city is gradually lively. Many families move all kinds of gadgets that they have prepared for half a year to the city, looking forward to selling them at a good price in these days to provide enough for the Chinese New Year.

"Hey, let's go to the festival the night after tomorrow?" Hua Song looked at the lively flow of people and said with a smile.

"Why are you as idle as Lian'er, and you don't get tired of watching it for so many years?" Su Lan watched Hua Song throw the cloth bag in his hand around boredly, and laughed.

"It's rare to have a lively event once a year, how can you be absent, tell your sister that let's go directly after the hall."

"Okay, is it because you can't wait to swallow feathers this year?" The corners of Su Lan's mouth curled slightly.

"Hey, I said how do you remember that your sister is so good at me, and you even help me to abuse." Hua Song's expression froze, and he was very annoyed. At last year's Qicang Festival, Su Lian dipped a ball of feathers dipped in soy sauce and stuffed it into the baked cake and gave it to Hua Song, and Hua Song has not forgotten the infinite flavor of that mouthful.

"You use a mask to scare her yourself, heaven is a good reincarnation, I think it's just right." Su Lan said with a smile, thinking of what happened that night, and felt very funny.

"Brother!" As he was talking, a girl in a white dress suddenly ran around the corner, and before the person arrived, the laughter like a silver bell was sent by the wind first, it was Su Lian.

"Hey, what's wrong with this girl." Hua Song's face darkened, and when he was talking about his troubles, the main owner appeared generously.

The girl ran closer, grabbed Su Lan's arm, and said, "Brother, you haven't accompanied me to buy the day after tomorrow's ornaments." "The festival is almost as big as the New Year in Nagumo, and people who go to see the festival on this night have to dress up in new clothes for a good omen. Before every festival, Su Lan has to pick out a few beautiful ornaments in the city with Su Lian.

Su Lan smiled: "Isn't there another day?" Why are you in such a hurry? ”

The girl pouted: "It's just a day, and the good things should be sold out tomorrow, I told my mother, let's take a walk around the city tonight." ”

Hua Song was in a very bad mood, raised his eyebrows with a dark face, and said, "I just want to find a reason to play." ”

Su Lian grimaced at Hua Song: "I want to think about what you should eat this year." ”

Hua Song was furious: "You girl can't remember this stubble." As he spoke, he was about to catch Su Lian, but the girl's spiritual cultivation was much higher than Hua Song's, and her slender body was as light as a swallow, and she dodged it with a slight shake. The girl hid behind Su Lan, and made another grimace: "Hehe, if you can't catch it, you have to be ashamed." ”

Su Lan smiled and shook his head: "Do you two have to make such a fuss every time you get together?" Saying that, he said to Hua Song: "Is there something wrong today?" If it's okay, let's take a spin together. ”

Speaking of this, Hua Song shook his head in frustration: "No, the things at home haven't been done yet, and if you don't step up these days, you won't be able to watch the festival." ”

Hua Song is the oldest in the family, and several younger brothers and sisters are still young, and most of the many things in the annual prayer festival have fallen on him, and I am afraid that tomorrow's ritual of the gods will not come. Su Lan understood the details and patted Hua Song: "Then save the good show for the day after tomorrow." ”

"Well, it's going to be fun the day after tomorrow." Hua Song smiled.

Su Lian grinned beside him: "When the time comes, you can be ready to feast." As he spoke, he dodged another flash, dodging Hua Song's angry grasp.

The sky was half-darkened, the market was lit up with sporadic lights, and the smiles of the teenagers shone softly in the peaceful twilight of the town. Su Lan thought, maybe all happiness is such a peaceful and long life. Looking at Hua Song, who waved away, he smiled slightly.

"Hey, brother, what are you smirking at that guy, let's go." Su Lian couldn't wait for a long time, and dragged him towards the market with his brother's arm.

"Ugh." Saying goodbye to the Su family brothers and sisters, Hua Song walked home with regret, and when he thought that tomorrow's small sacrifice of the gods would not be able to see it, he felt a little depressed. Fortunately, things should be done the day after tomorrow.

This year, I have to teach that girl a good lesson.

Thinking of this, Hua Song touched his nose as if he was annoyed, Su Lian resurfaced when he saw himself jumping up and down last year, thinking about it, he couldn't help laughing.

"I don't know how Aunt Su was born, Su Lan's kid has such a stable temperament, but he has a clever sister."

I turned around the corner and entered a secluded alley, and when it got dark, the alley was already half in shadow. Hua Song was muttering to himself, and was suddenly bumped into by someone at the fork in the road, but the man didn't speak, so he staggered over.

Hua Song frowned, but he didn't care too much, he had just taken two steps and suddenly found that half of his sleeve was stained with blood.

He was shocked in his heart, cold sweat broke out, he turned around and looked at the corner where the person disappeared just now, hesitated, gritted his teeth and chased after him.

"Click."

"Click."

It was only in the evening, but the alley was surprisingly quiet, and Hua Song felt for the first time that the dark alley was so terrifyingly quiet, and every footstep had to choke his heartbeat for half a moment.

Suddenly, he felt something stumble under his feet, followed by a crunching sound, so he subconsciously lowered his head.

A dry bone.

The skeleton's clothing was a little decayed, but the azure pattern could still be faintly discerned.

Breathing almost sluggishly, he looked into the depths of the alley, where black shadows were on the road that should have been smooth, quietly outlining the appearance of people in the shadows.

Dry bones, dry bones, still dry bones.

Some skeletons seemed to be struggling, some were holding broken swords, and some even hugged each other to death, piercing each other's chests.

Cold sweat overflowed little by little, fear reached the extreme, and he staggered out of the alley.

The soft candle flame, the quiet sound of selling, and the pedestrians on the street come and go safely, as if the world just now was just a dream.

Hua Song gasped violently for a moment and calmed down a little.

The clothes and accessories just now actually looked like the Su family's clothing, but if it was a skeleton that had been dead for many years, how could it not be found in the city for so long.

Suddenly, a strong dizziness flashed, and for a moment, the pain was like a split in the head.

He shook a few times, barely stood still, and suddenly found that the sleeves of his bloodstained shirt were smooth and clean, and the shocking bright red was gone.

The boy's eyes widened, and he carefully touched the sleeve of his shirt, but there was no soaking touch.

"How could it be ......" He hesitated and looked at the dark alley, wanting to leave, but when he thought that it was about Su Lan and Su Lian, he felt that he had to figure out what was going on.

Finally, Hua Song stomped his feet and rushed into the alley, but the young man who had finally mustered up his courage was stunned in the place where he had just fled.

There were no skeletons, no blood, and the alleys were empty, and there was not a trace on the smooth stone pavement, as if it were just an ordinary corner of this ordinary town.

Usually, the street market where Nagumo vendors are concentrated is only a scattered street, but before and after the Prayer Warehouse Festival, it is a different lively scene, and the not wide stone road is crowded with vendors from all walks of life, and the street is full of people.

"Brother, this is delicious." Su Lian lifted a little sugar man to Su Lan's mouth, and didn't forget to bite his own. The orange translucent sugar solution solidifies into a pretty juggler, making a climbing gesture on a wooden stick. Su Lan took it with a wry smile: "Others have to be careful to protect it for a long time when they buy it, but you directly destroy the heavenly thing." ”

Su Lian pouted: "It's so delicious, why wait." ”

"Okay, good," Su Lan smiled bitterly, he knew that he would regret it when Su Lian finished eating his share, wrap the sugar man "in case of coming", Su Lan said, "Do you see what you like?" ”

Su Lian's eyebrows furrowed slightly: "It's those few every year, there is nothing new at all, it's not good-looking." ”

Su Lan was not in a hurry, and accompanied her sister to choose slowly in the market. After all, Nagumo is a small town, and most of the jewelers who come here are small vendors in the neighborhood, and they can't make any exquisite and strange products. In recent years, the Su family has become more and more entrenched, and all kinds of business contacts with the nearby prosperous cities have almost been cut off, so it is difficult to buy for this kind of thing.

"Speaking of this grievance between the Five Elements Valley and Qimen Dao, it's been going on for a long timeβ€”β€”"

Walking and walking, I saw a lot of people gathered in a teahouse around the corner, Su Lian's eyes lit up: "Brother, storyteller, go quickly." ”

The brother and sister squeezed into the teahouse, this teahouse is not small, but it is also overcrowded, Su Lian jumped a few times and couldn't see the center, and hurriedly squeezed in, Su Lan had to apologize again and again in the back. More than half of the spectators in the teahouse were locals, and they were just about to get angry, but when they saw the eldest young master of the Su family, they suppressed it.

This has to start with the strange changes in the world in Dongtu two hundred years ago. On that day, the entire eastern soil felt like the earth was cracked, the blood was shining brightly, and there were strange treasures falling from the sky. This treasure is amazing, it is a weapon of the ancient gods to ward off evil spirits and exorcise demons. Hey, this time, it has attracted the four sides to rise up and fight, and it is really a storm, and the dragon and the tiger are leaping-"

With the name of the Su family, Su Lian didn't have to make too much effort to squeeze to the front, only to see a few cases set up in the center, and a thin old man standing behind, this old man was full of red face, with a lock of long hair, and his gestures were very neat. He paused deliberately, and seeing that everyone was watching, he smiled slightly, and raised his right hand: "After a battle between the open and the dark, there is not much left left, and the most eye-catching of them are a total of three forces-Yun Yi, the young palace master of the Nine Dragons Xuantian Palace, Luo Jiufeng, the heir of Qimen Dao, and Mu Yue, the young valley master of the Five Elements Valley. ”

"Hey, why are they all juniors?" Someone on the side couldn't help but speak.

The old man nodded: "That's a good question, in fact, this land of the East Earth is the mansion of the Nine Heavens Immortals, if the elders of the three ancient sects enter the East Land, most of them will disturb the gods, this is a catastrophe." ”

"The Nine Dragons Xuantian Palace has always been atmospheric, how many treasures and treasures are on Shengyuan Peak, even the treasures this time are not very attractive, the Lord of Yunshao Palace has an extraordinary demeanor, and when he saw the indecency of the dispute, he withdrew early, saying that as long as he appreciated this treasure, it would be good, so Luo Jiufeng and Mu Yue made a covenant with the East Saturn Divine Peak."

"Hey, brother, who won in the end?" The old storyteller in the center of the stage was like a river, still exaggerating the huge momentum of the battle between the two, Su Lian said impatiently to Su Lan.

Su Lan smiled: "Say it, it's not interesting to listen to it." ”

"Oh, brother, say it quickly, say it quickly."

"That treasure is said to have been placed on the Star God Peak, because the two did not want to affect the good of the sect, and agreed not to show each other, and the victory or defeat was only known between the two. The people at the foot of the peak only felt that the spiritual power at the top of the peak was constantly stirring, until it suddenly disappeared on the night of the second day. However, in the end, it was only Luo Jiufeng who went down the mountain. ”

"Huh? Is that to say? ”

Su Lan nodded: "It happened two hundred years ago, and no one knows the truth with false rumors." Most of everyone said that in the end, Luo Jiufeng took the treasure down the mountain, without mentioning Mu Yue's traces, and the people of the Five Elements Valley searched all over the Star God Peak and found no traces, and they were sure that it was Luo Jiufeng who harmed Mu Yue, the inheritance of the Five Elements Valley has always been harsh, and it was difficult to find a suitable heir, and Mu Yue was known as a genius who had not been encountered in a thousand years at that time, how could this feud be endured. Since then, the relationship between the two families has gradually deteriorated through the back and forth of the two families, and has come to the point where it is today. ”

In fact, no matter whether the legend is true or not, Qimen Dao is not only a combination of spiritual power and the word "strange", but also has always acted strangely, and many disciples in the door have strange temperaments, and even kill innocents indiscriminately. Although the Five Elements Valley is not as righteous as the Nine Dragons Xuantian Palace, it is difficult to tolerate this kind of practice, and the relationship is very difficult to understand.

Su Lian has a lively temperament, and he forgot to lower his voice when he was talking, and the people around him were listening to it, and the ending suddenly got into his ears, and his face was uncertain, but it was just because of the Su family's bad face. Fortunately, Su Lan was keen, and hurriedly apologized and pulled Su Lian out of the teahouse.

Su Lian didn't realize it, and continued to pester his brother and asked: "Brother, the Nine Dragons Xuantian Palace is so powerful, even the treasure of the Heavenly Immortals can't be looked down upon, let's go there to apprentice in the future." ”

Su Lan couldn't help but be dumbfounded: "Shengyuan Peak is far away in Zhongzhou, not to mention the distance of thousands of miles, the three ancient sects are extremely strict in accepting disciples, how can they just go?" And it's all storytelling. ”

Su Lian pouted in some disappointment, his lacquer-like eyes were still full of longing: "It would be great if the two of us could worship the Three Ancient Sects in the future." ”

Su Lan knew that this girl must have listened to the old storyteller's flicker, and was attracted by the story of Yunyi and the three of them in the book, and secretly laughed.

"Hey, brother, how about this?"

Suddenly, Su Lian picked up a light blue hairpin from a pile of jewelry, the hairpin body was crystal clear, exquisitely carved with dense patterns, and a flower glowing with a faint blue light was installed at one end of the hairpin, which was very elegant.

The stall owner is rarely a young man under thirty, dressed as a scholar, not like a vendor, but like a son. Seeing Su Lian looking at the things on his stall, he was not in a hurry to greet him, but smiled slightly: "The girl has good eyesight, this 'Blue Sea Jinghua' is my favorite one." ”

Su Lan had seen a lot of treasures, and he was very surprised when he saw it: "Cangyouhua is a strange treasure born from the condensation of the spiritual power of the snow jade in the extreme north, and the blue wave blue chalcedony jade is only produced in the East China Sea, so it is even more rare to make such workmanship, Brother Tai really wants to sell it here?" "Although there are occasional people selling strange things in Namyun Market, this stall owner is neither like a dealer who specializes in such things, nor does he seem to be embarrassed and anxious to use money.

The young man's brows furrowed slightly, but his eyes dimmed a little. He high-fived and said with a smile: "It's rare to know the goods." Not only that, this cangyu flower has been pregnant with flowers, if you continue to maintain this hairpin with spiritual power for three days, the flowers will bloom, and it is even more moving. ”

"Ah, this is the Cangyu flower, so beautiful." Su Lian was very surprised, she had heard her brother say that she had talked about Cangyouhua a few times, and she had always wanted to see it, but she didn't expect to meet it in this Nanyun Market.

Su Lan has seen a faint flower that has been pregnant with a flower, it is really beautiful, if he does his best to warm up, he should be able to urge the flowers to bloom in one or two nights. It's just that the price of this thing is probably expensive, looking at the way her sister looked at it holding a hairpin, Su Lan was a little hesitant.

The young man saw it and said with a smile: "I can't hide it, the person who was supposed to give this thing is no longer here, if you don't think it's unlucky, it's three hundred silver armor." ”

The young man's smile was vaguely lonely, Su Lan was a little confused, the price was surprisingly low, but he definitely wouldn't look away, so he had to thank him: "Then my sister and I will thank my brother." ”

The five states use copper baht, silver armor, and gold dollars as common coins, and one hundred silver armor can be enough for ordinary people for a year, but for Su Lan, three hundred silver armor is not a sky-high price.

"Brother, where is Hua Jing?" After buying the hairpin, Su Lian looked left and right, but he didn't find the flower for a long time.

Su Lan patted her sister's head: "You don't remember half a word about the kind of thing I said to you, but you remember the beauty of the flowers clearly." He took the hairpin, used his spiritual power, and gently patted one finger on the five petals of the Cangyu flower. The flower suddenly lit up, and faint dots of light emerged from the petals, converging towards the center of the flower, condensing into a small crystal white ball.

Putting away the flower cyanine, Su Lan put the flower hairpin on Su Lian's bun, and said with a smile: "Your spiritual power can't be waited, I'm afraid it will ruin the flower cyanine if you are in a hurry, I'll give you two nights of warmth, and I just wear it the day after tomorrow." ”

Spit out the flowers, the light of the flowers seems to be a little more prosperous, and the dreamy light blue reflects the hairpin, like a veil like a mist enveloping the girl. The plain white dress is dyed with an ethereal blue, lining the girl elegantly and ethereally. Su Lian laughed heartily and dangled his brother's arm around: "Hehe, brother, then it's up to you." ”

It was close to the sea, on the way back to Su Di quietly, the brother and sister talked and laughed, and soon arrived at the gate of the mansion, and the servant who guarded the door was happy to see him, and immediately stepped forward and said: "Childe, the master said that you should go to Xuanzhuzhai to see him after you come back." ”

Xuanzhuzhai is Su Yan's study, and he still has to see himself at this time, Su Lan expected that it should be the day after tomorrow, and there are some things that need to be checked. As a big family in Nanyun, the Su family has to take on more responsibilities, so naturally they have to spend a lot of money at the festival to worship the god of abundance and pray for the safety of the local area.

"You go back first."

"Then I'll go first, brother, don't forget my Huajing, I'll wear it the day after tomorrow to see what kind of expression that guy Hua Song has."

Su Lanwaner: "Okay, but I'm afraid that kid will belittle you even if he thinks it's good-looking." ”

"Hee-hee, I just want to see the annoyance he has to admit."

The night was deep blue, the sky was full of stars, and the lights of the southern clouds were faintly in the distance. The girl's smile is like a flower, like the purest flower on the ice and snow in the light of the light blue, not stained with dust.

Many years later, on the night before the end of the Seven Stars, when the two people who couldn't go back held their swords on the top of the Four Killings, they should both recall this night and the casual agreement in the night, and they should both think that the vicissitudes of life were only in the morning and night, and it turned out that it took a full ten years for them to realize that the best moment in their lives had quietly disappeared unconsciously.

This farewell, who can get it, how can the sea be a mulberry field.

Xuanzhuzhai is surrounded by dense bamboo forests, walking on the bamboo forest path, the night breeze will diffuse the faint bamboo fragrance into the air, some bamboo branches stretch out to the path, and the light yellow flowers can be seen faintly swaying in the air through the night. Although my father loved bamboo, he didn't like bamboo flowers very much, thinking that it was a bad omen, and he would usually order someone to cut off the branches once he saw it. Unexpectedly, he saw a bamboo flower swaggering on the path, Su Lan was a little surprised, and pinched it casually.

The lamp in the study was only dimly lit, Su Yan sat quietly at the table, his face was sinking like water, and when he saw Su Lan, he said in a deep voice: "Why did you come back so late?" ”

Su Lan hadn't noticed anything unusual yet, and said with a smile: "Lian'er shouted to buy the ornaments of the Prayer Cang Festival, so I accompanied her to the city market." ”

Su Yan's face darkened a little, and Su Lan noticed that a trace of struggle flashed on his father's face, and the young man hurriedly put away his smile: "Dad, what's wrong?"

Su Yan was silent for a moment, and said: "The news from Bird Seal City, three days ago, Qimen Dao attacked Shengyuan Peak, hundreds of masters of the Nine Dragons Xuantian Palace, the Three Upper Palaces and the Nine Heavens Mansion were all killed, and most of the branch halls in various places were also wiped out by Qimen Dao, except for a young young palace master Yun Qiongyi who happened not to be on the peak, the top figures of the Nine Dragons Xuantian Palace were almost all wiped out, and the rest of the forces may only fall in these few days." ”

Su Lan was shocked, he never dreamed that the behemoth of one of the Three Ancient Sects would be destroyed in a few days, in his heart, the Three Ancient Sects could be said to be an unattainable eternal existence in the clouds, and its tens of millions of years of long heritage and unfathomable heritage were not at all comparable to any other sect.

The boy opened his mouth, trying to say something but couldn't. Su Yan saw it in his eyes and smiled lowly: "I also just got an urgent report, if it weren't for the fact that the Su family still has a few eyeliners in several big cities in the south, I'm afraid I would have been kept in the dark so far." The thousand-year-old family was extinguished like this. In the last sentence, Su Yan's voice was inexplicably bitter.

Su Lan was a little puzzled, although this matter was big, it didn't seem to have anything to do with the little Su family far away in the east of the southern soil, but his father's expression was so serious, he didn't dare to ask.

The study was quiet, the sound of crickets came in from the window, making the room more and more deadly silent, Su Lan suddenly felt a little scared, obviously it was just an ordinary summer night, but the darkness of the candle light became eerie and terrifying, as if some ghost was going to rush out when he lost his mind.

Su Lian sat on the cliff rock, his feet swinging briskly in mid-air. This place is not far from the practice ground, sitting on the cliff rock, the vision suddenly opens up. Su Lian didn't often come out by himself at night, but he was extra excited tonight. The girl gently stroked the hairpin on her head, and there was a warm smile on her delicate face. The slightly cool touch of the flower penetrated from his fingertips, and Su Lian felt that he could feel the exquisite lines of each petal.

The ice and snow in the far north must be absolutely beautiful, and only the pure world can give birth to such beautiful flowers, and if the flowers are in full bloom, how beautiful will that brilliant brilliance be? The girl leaned against the tree and looked at Nanyun City in the distance, and the lights of thousands of households converged into the brightest star in the night, shining brightly.

It must be more beautiful than that.

The infinite beautiful reverie stretches, which is the unique romantic and beautiful reverie of the girl. One day, the night after tomorrow, I will be as beautiful as this flower. The elder brother would smile and praise, and the Hua Song guy would pretend to be disdainful, but if he was pressed, he would definitely admit that he was good-looking.

By the way, I haven't told my father and mother yet, my brother always can't think of this kind of thing, I was called by my father today, and I forgot to tell him to keep it secret, and I would give my father and mother a surprise the night after tomorrow.

The jewel-like black eyes reflected thousands of stars, the beautiful eyebrows and eyes were crooked, Su Lian's smile was even stronger, and he was going to go to his brother's place to see Hua Jing early tomorrow morning.

"Smack."

The candle burst open a spark, waking up the pensive Su Yan.

"Lan'er, have you always wanted to go to the Three Ancient Sects to see and understand?"

Su Lan hesitated for a moment, and responded suspiciously: "Yes." ”

"There is a word from the Five Elements Valley that he wants to accept you to get started, and it just so happens that the Lord of the Dust Valley is in Nantu, you clean up, and he will pick you up tonight."

Su Lan thought he had heard it wrong, and was stunned for a while: "Dad? Valley of the Five Elements? ”

Su Yan sighed lightly: "It's all fate." When my Su family was at its peak, the ancestors had a relationship with the Five Elements Valley, although the Su family declined, the Five Elements Valley never broke off this friendship because of the situation. When you were one year old, Tanaka once sent a disciple to congratulate you, and it happened that your physique was in line with Tanaka's exercises. ”

"The exercises of the Five Elements Valley are extremely powerful, but you must have some rare physique to practice, and the valley once mentioned that I wanted to accept you to get started, but it has been thousands of miles away, and your mother and I don't want you to get involved in these sect disputes, so we have been delayed. It's just that this time it's chaotic, I'm afraid it has to be like this. Although my Su family is far away in the broken dragon, but this place is under the jurisdiction of Qimen Dao, the Su family has some ties with the three sects, there are two other sects, the Su family can be safe, but twenty years ago in the battle of Tongyun Cliff, Qimen Dao forced the Five Elements Valley to retreat, and now the Nine Dragons Xuantian Palace is dead, and no one in the four states of Zhonglu is restrained, and there is no Five Elements Valley to protect each other, and the Su family is afraid that they will be razed to the ground one day. ”

"Dad, what else has happened between our family and the three sects?" Su Lan recovered from the shock, and although he had irrepressible surprise in his heart, he still realized the seriousness of the matter.

Su Yan's lips moved slightly, Su Lan saw his father's hesitation for the first time, since Su Lan could remember, Su Yan had always been deep and calm, as if everything could be easily decided.

"Later it will be necessary, I will tell you. Leaving home for the first time, be careful, Nanyun is too far away from the Five Elements Valley, in case of urgency in the future, go to Xihua Mountain to see your Uncle Lu. The Lord of the Dust Valley will arrive soon, go and clean up immediately, and come back as soon as possible. ”

Su Lan got up full of doubts, and was stopped by Su Yan again, he paused for a moment, and said: "I'll tell your mother tomorrow, she has always been resolutely against it before, and if she says it today, I'm afraid it's a little troublesome, and I can't snub the Lord of the Dust Valley." ”

"Daddy? I-"

"That's it, you go."

The mind gradually calmed down in the breeze of the bamboo forest, and after the surprise, the young man suddenly felt that something was wrong, the matter was too bizarre, and it seemed that there was something that didn't make sense, but this doubt was quickly suppressed by a strong reluctance, and in just one night, he had to stay away from Nanyun and seek Taoism from a strange sect thousands of miles away. This unexpected change was like an unreal dream, which made Su Lan a little trance-like. He hurried back to his room to clean up, but felt like he wanted to take everything with him. After being silent for a long time, the young man clenched his fists, poured out the sundries and wrapped them, only wrapped a few pieces of clothing and walked quickly towards Su Lian's courtyard.

"Lian'er? Ripples? ”

A light was lit in Su Lian's room, and Su Lan just wanted to speak, but saw Su Lian's personal maid Chenglu walking out.

"Where's Miss?"

Chenglu said sleepily: "Didn't Miss go out with the young master?" ”

A strange feeling suddenly arose, Su Lan inexplicably felt that he must say goodbye to his sister, he hurriedly turned around and ran towards the garden where Su Lian frequented, and Chenglu behind him shouted suspiciously: "Young master? Master? It's just that the voice is fading away.

No matter how brilliant the stars are, the night is always dark, and the light above the heavenly dome can never illuminate the darkness of the earth.

"Lian'er? Ripples? Su Lan hurriedly ran in the house, sweat dripping down. For the first time, he felt that Su Di in the middle of the night was so cold, like a dead tomb. The servants he met occasionally were just overwhelmed and were quickly left behind by themselves.

Only the branches and leaves in the forest were low and swaying, and everything in heaven and earth seemed to be silent, and a strange sense of loneliness quietly rose, pressing down on the chest.

"Su Lian? Su Lian? Suddenly, there was a sound of "dangdang" not far away, and it had been nearly half an hour since he came out.

"Su Lian, you're inβ€”" The young man paused suddenly, thinking of a place, he turned around sharply and ran towards the back mountain.

When the woods came to an end, there was a clearing in front of me into the mountain pass, and it had been too long, and my father said that he would go back in half an hour. The boy paused, hesitating.

"Su Lian? Su Lian? He shouted desperately.

The mockery of the empty mountains seemed to echo the boy's voice, but the response was only a few birdsongs. Su Lan looked at the dark mountain forest and was silent.

"Su Lian? Su Lian! ”

I should be able to come back in half a year, although it is a little far, but if I can learn the kung fu of controlling the spirit treasure, it should not be long before I go home.

Su Lan finally looked at the mountains and forests that had accompanied him for sixteen years, and turned around in disappointment.

On the cliff, the girl was slightly closing her eyes, feeling the coolness of the night breeze on her skin. Suddenly, she felt as if she had heard her brother's voice, and she opened her eyes and waited for a while, but the voice disappeared again.

The girl smiled lightly, if her brother knew that he had run to such a remote place at night, he would probably have to nag again, he was always like this, and he had to remind Chenglu to keep it secret when he went back.

She closed her eyes and leaned against the tree. This tree is so solid that you can lean on it and enjoy the coolness of this summer night.

The girl touched the hairpin, and the smile on the corner of her mouth lingered for a long time.

In the sky, the stars blinked, following an eternal trajectory in the dark.
