On Yaqi Mountain, in the Taiyin Palace.

No one sat in front of the desk, and the hospitality of the Taiyin Palace was very warm, whether it was the meal in front of them at the moment or the room prepared for them before, it was all first-class goods.

Such enthusiasm made Su Mu'an a little in a trance, and he was in a trance that he didn't quite understand what the purpose of their trip was.

The group of people before repeatedly talked about such a heavy topic as life and death, and he thought that everyone had some kind of blood feud with this Taiyin Palace, just like him and Zhu Xian of the Long Night Division.

He thought that what awaited him would be a life-and-death battle between swords and swords, but he didn't want to end up being a polite guest and host. He was puzzled, but he didn't know what to say. Of course he hoped they all survived, but would things really be as simple as he wanted them to see?

And just as he was thinking about this, the door of the house was pushed open. The Confucian scholar who greeted them during the day walked slowly into it and bowed to everyone.

"Meng has seen all the distinguished guests, and the old palace master has already given an order, and he will solve your doubts tomorrow, and please prepare your own questions. The Confucian came and went in a hurry, and after saying this, he retreated.

"Question, what question?" Su Mu'an looked at everyone with a puzzled expression, but saw that their faces were as usual, obviously knowing about this matter for a long time.

"Taiyin Palace is the first school palace in the world, known as the upper and lower millennia, omniscient, omniscient. At this time, the man in black who was not from the same path as them, but suddenly appeared after they arrived, took over and said: "Although the road up the mountain is full of dangers, the rewards of things in this world have always been proportional to the effort, but anyone who can come to the mountain gate can ask a question to the Taiyin Palace, and the Taiyin Palace will definitely give their answer." ”

Su Mu'an vaguely remembered that the man in front of him seemed to be an old acquaintance with his master Yuan Guilong, and he didn't have any bad feelings when he had no deep contact with him, but he was faintly aware that everyone seemed to be quite dislike of this person. He tilted his head and thought about it, but he still couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart, and asked, "The demon beasts in this mountain forest are extremely fierce, is it worth taking such a big risk for a question in the Taiyin Palace?"

"It depends on whether the question you're asking is worth the price. The man smiled faintly, "For example, the emperor of the previous dynasty sent someone to the Taiyin Palace, and I think that supreme real person asked a very good question." ”

"What's the problem?" Su Mu'an blinked and asked curiously.

"How to live forever, how to live longer than the sky. ”

"Can you still ask such a question?" Su Mu'an suddenly became interested, "What about the answer?"

At this time, the other three people in the room were also hinting at the two people who were talking, but the man drank a cup of tea in a hurry at that time, and then said softly: "Then I'm afraid only the emperor and the supreme true person themselves know." ”

"How can there be so many longevity without borders, if the supreme real person really has a way, how could he himself end up in such a field?" Ning Zhumang on the side pursed his lips and said with some sadness. "The immortals who have lived for 600 years will also survive the day when they will survive, and I don't know if there is any hope for our monks to ascend to that legendary realm. ”

"There are spring and autumn years, wood has withered glory, the cycle of life and death is the way of heaven, and no one can escape death. At this time, the swordsman Yuan Guilong also spoke.

"I'm afraid that the immortal will live too long, and he won't abide by the rules of heaven and earth, and find another way. Mo Chenzi sat down and said in a deep voice.

When these words came out, everyone was stunned, only the swordsman glanced at Mo Chenzi lightly, and his tone suddenly became cold: "Then let's tell him about this rule." ”

......

In the main hall of Tiance Mansion.

Ye Hongjian looked at the man in front of him with a shocked expression.

That is Ye Chengtai, the Marquis of Ning Guohou of the Great Zhou, and her father.

At this moment, he sat on the opposite side of Ye Hongjian, his face was silent, his expression was calm, and he even filled himself with a cup of tea quite leisurely, and put it to his lips to taste it.

Ye Hongjian looked at him stunned, the light in her eyes flickered, she looked at Ye Chengtai very hard, as if she wanted to overlap his appearance at the moment with the father who had always been charitable in her heart, but no matter how hard she tried, the strangeness in her heart was overwhelming, almost engulfing her.

The two sat opposite each other like this for a long time, and then Ye Hongjian said: "All this... You already knew?"

Even she could feel the dryness in her tone as she said this.

"Yes. Ye Chengtai nodded, his expression still calm.

Rumble!

At this time, a spring thunder sounded again outside the house, and the thunder light reflected in the hall, illuminating the side faces of the father and daughter extraordinarily brightly.

Ye Hongjian put one hand in front of the case, the other hidden in her lap, her hand clenched into a fist, or because of too much force, her knuckles were white, and the breathing on the tip of her nose was a little heavier.

"So all this is a game that has already been laid out?" Ye Hongjian asked again, her face was a little gloomy at this time.

"Of course. Ye Chengtai responded.

"What about Xiao Han? What should he do?" Ye Hongjian tried her best to calm down, but when she spit out these words, there was still a slight trilling in her tone.

"He is a pawn who crosses the river, and a horse that crosses the precipice. There is no way back, and there is nowhere to go. Ye Chengtai said lightly, and his tone suddenly sank at that time. "It's just death. ”

Ye Hongjian's heart was shocked when she heard this, and she stared at her father deadly. "He's my husband!"

"In this troubled world, in order to find a safe place, there is no way to do anything. Ye Chengtai responded in a deep voice. "And you should understand that sometimes a small sacrifice for the sake of the majority of people is necessary and worthwhile. ”

Ye Hongjian stood up violently at that time, she looked at her father fiercely, and then turned around to walk towards the outside of Tiance Mansion.

"Are you going to look for him?" Ye Chengtai took the tea in front of him again and took a sip lightly.

"He is my husband, marry a chicken and a dog with a dog, even if I die, I will die with him. The girl dressed in red walked without stopping, and in a blink of an eye she reached the door of the main hall.

"Red note. Just as she had already stepped out of the door with one foot, the voice of the man in the house sounded again: "All this is not my decision, it is something that your master and grandfather have planned a long time ago, you have to think about it, what is he doing this for?"

When the girl heard this, her body paused, and her feet dangled in mid-air and stopped.

The picture seemed to be still at that moment, but the rain was still falling, and in the main hall of Tiance Mansion, there was no sound except for the sound of the dripping rain.

And after a long silence, the girl finally withdrew the foot that had stepped out. She slowly turned around and looked at the man on the stage, but her eyes were already soaked with tears.

The man stood up at that time, slowly walked to the girl, he stretched out his hand to gently brush away the tears from the corners of the girl's eyes, and then whispered: "Knowing the righteousness, this is my good daughter Ye Chengtai." ”

With that, the man stroked his sleeve and walked away.

And at the moment of the wrong body, the girl's cheeks, which had just been wiped away from tears, burst into tears again.

......

"Brother Chu, don't you want to drink this wine anymore?" Xu Han frowned and looked at the middle-aged man in front of him who was flushed with alcohol, and asked in a deep voice.

"Drink! You and my brother are finally able to drink together, how can we not go home without a good time?" The middle-aged man was obviously a little delirious from drinking, he put one hand on Xu Han's shoulder, but his mouth was mubling, and his words were quite indistinct.

Xu Han sniffed the strong smell of wine coming from the man's body, shook his head a little helplessly, and finally put away his thoughts of persuasion.

But Chu Qiuli didn't have a trace of drunken consciousness, he continued to go his own way and said in a loud voice: "Xiao Han, why do you say that women in this world are so ruthless? Look at the girl in the red note, she didn't say anything when you left today..."

Xu Han's face changed slightly when he heard this, but he quickly returned to normal, he took a sip of the wine glass in front of him, and said, "You should know the temperament of the red note. She has her own ideas, if she changes her original intention for me, Ye Hongjian will not be Ye Hongjian. ”

"Besides, I won't change for her, so how can I force her to change for me?"

When the middle-aged man, who had always been arrogant, heard this, a rare look of sadness appeared on his drunken and hazy face.

"yes. As if he had thought of something, he let out a long sigh, "You and I are both stubborn people, no wonder we are all alone, deserve it, deserve it." ”

After saying this, Chu Qiuli raised the wine glass in his hand, looked at Xu Han, and said: "Just because of this matter, Xiao Han, you and my brother should drink three cups together, come!"

Chu Qiuli said this, regardless of whether Xu Han should say his words or not, he drank three glasses of sake again, and the middle-aged man, who was already drunk, could no longer endure the dizziness in his mind at this moment, and his head sank, and he fell on the wooden table.

The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and it seems that it is rare to see such a torrential rain in spring.

Xu Han looked at the drunken man, shook his head, and finally helplessly helped him to his bed, and then got up to clean up the wine on the table, and after doing this, he walked to the door of the house, stood under the eaves, and looked at Chang'an City in the rainy night.

Xuan'er, who was sleeping peacefully on the bed, couldn't stand the pungent smell of wine from the man, and jumped on Xu Han's shoulder, Xu Han smiled apologetically at the black cat, and was thinking about cleaning up the side room, and he and the black cat would spend the night, but at that time, the corner of his eye suddenly glimpsed a cyan figure standing in an attic not far away.

Xu Han looked at the man, but the cyan figure did not shy away, but nodded slightly towards him, his eyes still staring straight here.

I don't know if it's an illusion, Xu Han faintly felt that what the man was looking at was not the dilapidated mansion, nor the hazy rainy night, but the man who was snoring like thunder in the room.

The man in the room seemed to lie a little unwell, and at that moment he rolled over, and spat out a phrase that was indescribable whether it was drunk or dreaming.

"One hundred thousand white practices fall into the sky, one strike..."

"Tsing Yi looks at the homeland..."

Xu Han was stunned when he heard this, and inexplicably felt at that time that this poem was quite appropriate to the situation in front of him....
