Chapter 4 and 5: A vanity, barren flowers [two more]
The sound fell, and Tianyi raised his head to look at the dome. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
There, the cool sky and mist, the stars in the wilderness, the empty ghosts and ghosts.
Immediately afterwards, Tianyi slowly closed his eyes, and the memories in his mind continued, and there were shadows.
The shadow came dignified, uninhibited.
His chic, drunk over thousands of mountains, thanks to peach blossoms, is a life after a storm.
His name is Qin Wanli, and he is a lonely person.
But his heart is not lonely.
Thinking about it, Tianyi opened his eyes, and there was a sparkle in his eyes.
"Decades ago, at the end of the flower month, we met and gave a poem to appreciate the moon. Looking at the flowers and moons now, the flowers and moons are similar, and the feelings are like the past. ”
Tianyi muttered, and between his hands, wine appeared.
"Thousands of miles of clouds are cloudy and sunny, so a glass of wine is thousands of miles away. ”
Tianyi sprinkled wine in front of the tomb, and then drank it in a big gulp.
For some reason, the wine that has always been astringent has become extremely strong at this moment.
"Senior Qin, what I promised you, I will do it. ”
After saying that, Tianyi looked at the tomb in front of him.
The breeze swept by, and the grass and trees moved remotely, sending a burst of amazement and waking up a piece of the past.
Standing still for a while, Tianyi's figure gradually became illusory, until finally, completely disappeared.
Soon after Tianyi left, Chiba and his party were welcomed in the courtyard.
Chiba stood in front of the tomb, silent.
She looked at the grave in a daze, and unconsciously, tears poured down.
Qianyu and Ruolan were silent on the side, looking at the tearful Qianye, and the two girls were also full of sorrow.
Seeing this scene, Ah Biao felt sad and sighed: "Everything is wrong with the wide gate, what is the difference between the same thing?"
With that, he lifted the jar of wine and continued to drink.
Accompanied by Chiba and the others, there was also a man.
The man had a long hair, and he carried a long stick in one hand and a jar of liquor hanging in the other.
"Ugh..."
The drunkard sighed for a long time, he didn't drink the altar like Ah Biao, but slowly walked to Qin Wanli's tomb, and then put the jar of spirits in his hand on the ground.
"The drunkenness of the past is gone, and now there is only a desolate word. ”
As he spoke, the drunkard looked back at Chiba, and then said, "Wanli, the person you care about the most is coming to pick you up." ”
At the same time, Chiba slowly stepped forward.
There are only a few steps on the way, but Chiba feels that these few steps are far away from the end of the world.
"Father, Chiba is not filial!"
After the words fell, the Chiba people had already knelt down in front of the tomb.
She cried loudly, and the tears poured down like a burst.
Seeing Chiba so sad, Qianyu couldn't stop crying.
For some reason, for this strange deceased, Qianyu seems to be inexplicably familiar.
That kind of familiarity came abruptly and obscurely, and even in Qianyu's mind, a vague figure appeared in his mind.
Ruolan didn't say anything, only stared quietly, her expression full of sorrow.
At the same time, outside the courtyard, a dark shadow lurked in the wind.
He looked not far away with burning eyes, and sighed, "Lord Ruolan, why are you so sad?"
......
In the Great Desert City, in a wine shop on the street, Tianyi sat by the window.
On the table in front of him, two orders were placed flat.
These two orders, one is called the Great Desolation Order, and the other is called the Hundred Flowers Order.
"Barrenness, a hundred flowers, in the end, is it not worth a vanity after all?"
Tianyi sighed wistfully, and then drank the wine.
He is not a stunned person, but tonight, he is quite emotional.
At some point, two figures crossed into the wine shop.
These two people, one wearing a red robe, the other wearing a plain robe.
The man in the red robe is magnificent, walking like the wind and moving like mist, giving people an unpredictable look.
The man who followed him was carrying a long sword, and the whole person was like a sharp sword, giving people a chill.
At this time, it was already night, and there were few people in the wine shop.
The two of them only glanced at it, and found Tianyi under the moon in front of the drinking window.
Seeing this, the man in the red robe frowned slightly, and then walked towards Tianyi, the man in the plain robe was silent, and only quietly followed.
Tianyi didn't pay attention to the two people who came unexpectedly, and still drank wine by himself, looking at the moon.
After a while, the two of them had come to Tianyi.
"Huh?"
The man in the red robe was slightly startled, his gaze first fixed on Tianyi's body for a moment, and then fell on the two orders on the table.
"Friend, I wonder if you mind if we sit down here?"
The man in the crimson robe asked.
Tianyi was indifferent, and he didn't hear the man's words.
Seeing this scene, the man in a plain robe suddenly lowered his eyebrows, and between his eyebrows, there was a frost and moon-like coldness.
The man in the crimson robe smiled slightly, and then gestured to the man in the plain robe.
"If our friends don't speak, then we don't invite ourselves to sit down. ”
As he spoke, the two sat down at the table where Tianyi was.
The man in the red robe smiled faintly, but his eyes kept looking at Tianyi's body.
The man in the plain robe was speechless, and his eyes were full of vigilance and anger when he looked at Tianyi.
"Pavilion Master, this person is so rude!"
In the silence, the plain robe man spoke.
"Sword King, do you know why I only brought you when I came to the Deserted Palace this time, but not the Ghost King and the Prison King?"
The man in the crimson robe echoed.
"Pavilion Master, I was wrong, I was too impetuous. ”
The two people who came suddenly, not others, were none other than Nangong Xia, the current pavilion master of Nangong Pavilion, and the Sword King, one of the three kings of Nangong.
At this time, after hearing the Sword King comprehend his words, Nangong Xia smiled slightly.
He smiled, but his gaze did not deviate from Tianyi's body for a moment.
Before Nangong Xia could speak, Tianyi, who was indifferent, said suddenly: "He's right, he's just cautious and doesn't lose time." ”
Hearing this, Nangong Xia and the Sword King's faces changed drastically.
They are just spreading their voices, but how can they be discovered?
You must know that Nangong Xia's strength, even if you look at the storm, is also at the peak, and few people can complete this eavesdropping under his nose.
But the white-clothed and white-haired man in front of him did it, otherwise, with Nangong Xia's concentration, he would not be so stunned.
At this time, Nangong Xia looked at Tianyi in a daze, and even the smile on his face had disappeared, replaced by a touch of solemnity.
Nangong Xia said: "I know, I probably shouldn't ask Your Excellency's name. ”
Tianyi smiled and said, "But you still asked." ”
Nangong Xia said: "Then friend is willing to tell me?"
Tianyi said: "My surname is Bai, a painter. ”
"Surname Bai?"
"Painter?"
Nangong Xia was stunned and said, "My friend is a person in the painting door?"
Tianyi shook his head and said, "No." ”
Nangong Xia paused slightly, looked down at the two orders on the table, and said, "Friend, I don't know where your two orders came from?"
Tianyi said: "This story is very long. ”
Nangong Xia said: "So, it takes a long time to listen?"
Tianyi nodded.
Nangong Xia said: "I have time." ”
Tianyi said: "Do you really have that long to listen to my rumors?"
Hearing this, Nangong Xia was suddenly stunned.
This time he came to the Deserted Palace, he was also entangled in important things, and to a certain extent, his time was not as abundant as he said.
After the silence, Tianyi said: "It seems that you don't have that long to listen to my story. ”
"Your story?"
Nangong Xia frowned, feeling more and more suspicious about the strange man in front of her.
Tianyi smiled, turned his eyes to look at the Sword King and Nangong Xia, and said, "Do you know these two orders?"
Nangong Xia nodded and said, "If I'm not mistaken, these two orders, one should be the Great Desolation Order, and the other should be the Hundred Flowers Order, right?"
Tianyi said: "Yes." ”
Nangong Xia said: "Friends are really a good means, if you get one of these two things, it will be a great opportunity, and you can have both." ”
Tianyi said: "No matter how good my means are, I'm afraid it will be difficult to reach Nangong Pavilion, right?"
As soon as these words came out, Nangong Xia's face suddenly became gloomy, and even the Sword King on the side was gloomy.
Nangong Xia looked at Tianyi, and his thoughts became a little confused.
As the master of the first pavilion of Nangong Pavilion, how could he ever be so confused?
Nangong Xia didn't know the man in front of him, and he couldn't even see through his strength.
But this man not only eavesdropped on the transmission between him and the Sword King, but even found out their identities.
This kind of situation has never been encountered by Nangong Xia.
After being silent for a while, Nangong Xia said, "Your Excellency knows my identity?"
Tianyi nodded and said, "You are Nangong Xia, the pavilion master of Nangong Pavilion, and he is the sword king of the three kings of Nangong." ”
As he spoke, Tianyi looked sideways at the Sword King.
Before Nangong Xia could speak, the Sword King had already spoken, "Who are you?"
Tianyi smiled and said, "I said before, my surname is Bai. As for your whereabouts, I don't seem to care that much. ”
The Sword King wanted to make a sound, but was stopped by Nangong Xia on the side.
Nangong Xia said: "Friends, meeting is fate, what happened before was our abruptness." ”
As he spoke, Nangong Xia cast an apologetic look at Tianyi.
Tianyi smiled indifferently and said, "You and I don't have to be so polite. ”
After the words stopped, Tianyi had already stood up and said, "The person I am waiting for is here, if there is fate, let's meet again!"
After saying that, Tianyi wanted to turn around and leave.
Nangong Xia was stunned, then looked at the table again, and hurriedly shouted, "Friend, have you left something behind?"
Tianyi paused slightly, turned his back to Nangong Xia and the Sword King, and said, "Compared to my indifference, you should need them more." ”
When the words fell, Tianyi didn't stop anymore, and after three or two steps, the person had already crossed out of the wine shop.
Seeing this scene, the Sword King got up and wanted to chase after him.
For such a stranger, he really didn't feel at ease and let him go without knowing it.
Before the Sword King could leave, Nangong Xia had already spoken: "Sword King, there is no need to chase after it." Even if you catch up, what can you do?"
"Pavilion Master, this person is unknown, and he knows the identity and whereabouts of you and me, if you let him leave like this, is it too hasty?"
Nangong Xia smiled helplessly and said, "Let's not say that this person's strength is unfathomable, just from the two orders he left, it is enough for us to stop and not chase." ”
The Sword King was stunned for a moment, and turned to look at the Great Desolation Order and the Hundred Flowers Order on the table.
"Pavilion Master, these two orders are really that strange?"
The Sword King asked with some confusion.
Whether it was the Great Desolation Order or the Hundred Flowers Order, he had heard of it.
It's just that in the eyes of the Sword King, these two orders alone don't seem to be as valuable and unique as Nangong Xia said.
Nangong Xia said: "Sword King, why did you come out of this trip, your thoughts seem to be confused a lot?"
The Sword King smiled awkwardly.
Nangong Xia said: "Do you remember the purpose of the desolate hall we came here on this trip?"
The Sword King nodded.
Now that the turmoil is imminent, the Northern Pavilion has entangled a group of forces, preparing to set off a monstrous war.
The three pavilions of Nangong Pavilion, Oriental Pavilion and Ximen Pavilion are united to resist the invasion of the Northern Underworld.
This time I came to the Deserted Palace, in order to negotiate the alliance, otherwise, Nangong Xia would not have come forward in person.
These things, as early as on the way to come, Nangong Xia made it clear to the Sword King.
It's just that what makes the Sword King puzzled is that these things don't seem to have anything to do with the two orders left by the man surnamed Bai.
Looking at the misty appearance of the Sword King, Nangong Xia sighed helplessly and said, "Sword King, my Nangong Pavilion is one of the Quartet Pavilions of the Fenglan Continent, and it may order the Deserted Palace and the Hundred Flowers?"
Hearing Nangong Xia's question, the Sword King suddenly fell into deep thought.
He knew about the Deserted Palace, and as for the Hundred Flowers, he had never heard of them before he came here.
If it weren't for Nangong Xia's confession, the Sword King probably wouldn't know that in the land of Nangong, there was still a mysterious power comparable to Nangong Pavilion lurking.
After thinking for a while, the Sword King shook his head and said, "Pavilion Master, the Desolate Hall and the Hundred Flowers are all mysterious. Although they are located in the South Palace, they are not under the jurisdiction of my South Palace Pavilion. ”
Nangong Xia nodded and said, "That's why this time, my father will send me to come to the Deserted Palace in person to discuss the turmoil in the near future." ”
At this point, Nangong Xia paused, and then said: "Before coming here, I was only less than thirty percent sure of the matter of uniting the Desolate Palace and the Hundred Flowers. ”
Saying that, Nangong Xia looked down at the two orders that had been held in his hand, and said, "But with these two orders, I am eighty percent sure." ”
Hearing this, the Sword King was taken aback and said, "Pavilion Master, as far as I know, these two orders don't seem to have any miraculous effect. ”
Nangong Xia smiled and said, "If they are placed in the hands of others, these two orders are nothing surprising. ”
The Sword King frowned, looking at Nangong Xia in a bit of a daze.
He suddenly realized that he couldn't understand what Nangong Xia said.
Nangong Xia said: "Sword King, do you know who these two orders have been stored in recent years?"
The Sword King was stunned for a moment, and said: "These two orders were left by the person surnamed Bai, and I think they should be in his hands." ”
Nangong Xia looked at the Sword King meaningfully, and then shook his head.
"Isn't it?"
The Sword King was surprised and said, "Where is it in whose hands?"
Nangong Xia said: "You know this person." ”
"I know?"
The Sword King looked inexplicable, he knew a lot of people, but no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't remember who had the Great Desolation Order and the Hundred Flowers Order in his hands.
Nangong Xia said: "Sword King, have you forgotten the person who is called Forgetful?"
"Don't forget?"
The Sword King was startled, and his face suddenly became different.
No matter how much his memory fades, he will never forget the young man he was at the beginning.
The young man once said that he had no sword in his hand, but he had a sword in his heart.
The young man also said that there was no sword in his hand, and there was no sword in his heart.
The young man also had a conversation with a man named Shi Dabiao.
The young man said: "Last night, the west wind withered the green trees, went up to the tall building alone, and looked at the end of the world with a sword. ”
Shi Dabiao said: "I don't regret the gradual widening of the belt, and I will be haggard for the sword." ”
The young man said: "The crowd searched for the sword thousands of times, and suddenly looked back, but the sword was in the lamplight. ”
......
This scene, the Sword King still remembers it, and every time he recalls it, the Sword King can feel a sword intent that resonates from it.
He once fought with a sword, and he broke into the world with a sword.
He is a man who loves swords, loves swords as life, swords are in people, and swords are dead.
He is constantly searching, looking for the sharpest sword in the world.
He once said, "The sharpest sword in the world is not in the sword itself." ”
He thought that his knowledge of the sword had reached an extremely high level.
As everyone knows, after listening to the words with Shi Dabiao back then, he realized that his so-called understanding was just speculation.
While reminiscing, the Sword King muttered, "There is no sword in your hand, and there is no sword in your heart." Thousands of looks, when I look back, the sword is in the lamplight?"
A bitter smile flooded his cheeks, and the Sword King looked at Nangong Xia and said, "Pavilion Master, how could I forget and forget? If it weren't for him, I wouldn't know what it means to have a sword without a sword." ”
Thinking of this, the incomprehension in the Sword King's heart was also clear.
When he knew him back then, he didn't forget it, but he was just an unknown teenager, and then he didn't forget to grow up step by step, and when it came to the battle of righteousness and demons, he didn't forget that he had become a person who could turn the tide with his own strength.
After that war, he did not forget to be canonized as Lan Sheng, and then disappeared and was never heard from again.
The sword king's heart is very clear, do not forget the relationship between the desolate hall and the hundred flowers, the origin is not shallow, if you do not forget the difficulty, the desolate palace and the hundred flowers will never stand idly by.
This is also the reason why Nangong Pavilion has spared no effort to find his whereabouts over the years.
Because if you don't forget that if you stand up, you will definitely be able to bring those mysterious forces together.
Thinking of this, the Sword King suddenly paused, looked at Nangong Xia again and again, and said, "Pavilion Master, it's not right!"
Nangong Xia smiled and said, "You're not right, but why are these two orders in the hands of the man surnamed Bai?"
The Sword King nodded.
Nangong Xia said: "The man surnamed Bai is unfathomable, even if it is me, I am afraid that it will not be as good as it." He can spy on you and me, and knows the identities of you and me, and when he left, he deliberately left the Great Desolation Order and the Hundred Flowers Order. ”
Speaking of this, Nangong Xia fell into a short pause, and then said: "Do you think all this is a coincidence?"
The Sword King frowned, and his whole person was in thought.
Nangong Xia said: "Don't forget to act, there have always been a lot of mysteries, and his mysteries are unexpected and reasonable." ”
The Sword King was stunned and said, "Pavilion Master, what do you mean that the man surnamed Bai didn't forget to assign?"
Nangong Xia nodded, and then put the Great Desolation Order and the Hundred Flowers Order into the storage bag.
He raised his head, but saw the canopy outside the window, faintly white.
"Sword King, it's almost dawn, and it's time to visit the Deserted Palace. ”
As he spoke, Nangong Xia stepped away.
The Sword King paused for a moment, and then followed Nangong Xia again and again.
......
