The iron tree and silver flower river, the star bridge iron cable opens, the dark dust goes with the horse, and the bright moon comes one by one.

Chinese New Year's Eve in Fulongjing is quite prosperous, with brilliant fireworks blooming in the deep night sky, illuminating the world like a beautiful fairyland.

The crown prince Shi Shiran climbed the city tower, looking down on the street market like daytime like a battlement, even if it was late at night, it was still a grand banquet and a lot of traffic.

"General, how long is it until the Hidden Dragon Hunt?" The prince asked quietly.

"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, my subordinates have ordered someone to calculate, and there are about three years left."

"In the past three years, we must practice diligently and stay on top of each other. My father is not in good health now, and if he says something rebellious, I'm afraid there will be only a few years left. As long as I don't get to that position for a day, I can't relax for a moment. You can't give other princes a chance to turn the tables against the wind. ”

Niu Gengtian looked down at the prince's line of sight, and his eyes showed great nostalgia. I think when he first died in the army, the happiest thing every year was to go shopping on Chinese New Year's Eve to watch the drama and enjoy juggling, and the government gave back free food, the kind of osmanthus cake with obvious festival characteristics.

It's a pity that the more he grows up, the rarer this simple enjoyment becomes, and the past that is sealed in his memory has become a treasure that has lasted for a long time, a kind of foundation that makes him himself.

"The subordinates obey the prince's orders. Tens of thousands of troops guarding the frontier have been transferred back and stationed at a distance of more than 100 miles from Fulongjing for the prince to deploy. ”

The prince didn't speak, just sneered alone, not knowing what was brewing.

……

Yancheng, a lively street.

Lu Xuan and Yu Ji walked side by side, and after a few hours of conditioning, Lu Xuan was basically able to walk.

It's just that in a short period of time, I'm afraid I won't be able to use my true qi. The huge overdraft, as well as the erosion of Ye Feng's strength, made his body like a broken garment, at this moment, even an ordinary person could defeat him with a shovel and hoe.

"Why the hell are you helping me so much? What you said on the covenant of life and death is a little ambiguous, and I don't understand it. Lu Xuan looked at Yu Ji's side face and suddenly asked.

"That's a question." Yu Ji blinked mischievously and bought a pass, "I can choose not to tell you." ”

"Of course, it's your freedom. But if you don't answer these questions, I'm upset. You know what that represents. Lu Xuan said.

Yu Ji looked at Lu Xuan's eyes carefully for a long time, then raised her head to look at a cluster of red fireworks against the background of the indigo night, and then suddenly sighed meaningfully: "Some things are like this flourishing fireworks, although they are short-lived, the beauty that can remain in the world is real, and it will surely linger in your mind until the earth is desolate." How is this different from the pursuit of the true meaning of strength? ”

Lu Xuan stopped, he heard the deep meaning, and his heart was slightly touched at the moment.

"Although history is changing, and some things have disappeared in the long river, it doesn't matter what their specific truth is. What really deserves attention is how we, the latecomers, should interpret it in a direction that is conducive to the enlightenment of the body. This is true of the Righteous Paths...... The same is true of the Devil's Way. ”

Lu Xuan trembled, and the word "Demon Dao" spit out of Yu Ji's mouth, completely confirming the thoughts in his heart. She was able to see that she had a demonic aura on her body! But judging from the situation at the time, no one at the scene knew that Ember Sumeru contained the cultivation method of the Demon Dao, but how did Yu Ji see it?

Thinking of this, he looked at this innocent-looking woman in a daze, and swallowed his saliva with a grunt. Only then did he realize that Yu Ji did not seem to be as simple as it seemed.

"I know what you're thinking." "But now is not the time to tell you, if our fate is not over, there will definitely be a chance to meet in the future." Until then, it will be too late to dwell on everything. ”

"Oh? Listening to the meaning of your words, why does it seem like saying goodbye? ”

"Shouldn't it be a farewell? If I don't even understand this, I'm afraid I can't say it. ”

Lu Xuan's heart was also sour when he heard this, on the occasion of this family reunion, he had no relatives and was about to leave this small city where he had lived for nearly ten years. I am afraid that "traces of stalks" will be an inevitable portrayal of the future of people like him.

Ning Yu ...... What is it on your shoulders that you can't even see me? Lu Xuan didn't understand, and he didn't want to understand, because thinking about these things could only make him feel depressed, and the feeling of longing was so strong that he almost wanted to suffocate.

He wandered around aimlessly, and having beautiful women around him could relieve some boredom, but what could not be parted, the longing for Wan'er and Shizun, was staged in turn, and it was stunned to make the streets that were originally interesting with gongs and drums and flashing lanterns in his eyes.

"Huh? That's so fun! Yu Ji suddenly said happily, and then she squeezed through the crowd and approached the small vendor next to her.

Lu Xuan looked over and saw that the stall was selling dolls made of dog tail grass, although there was no practicality, but the exquisite craftsmanship could indeed attract the hearts of women.

Seeing this, he shook his head slightly, with a kind smile on the corner of his mouth, amused by Yu Ji's childlike innocence.

However, in a trance, the corner of his eye swept over a corner of the dark corner of the street, which was the boundary where the flower light next to him spread.

A faint phantom floated quietly, his pale face hidden under his thick long hair, and his gloomy gaze mixed with evil resentment stared straight at him.

Lu Xuan's heart twitched suddenly, although he couldn't see clearly, he could clearly perceive that the person's pupils did not have a trace of whites, and it was as deep as an endless abyss.

He only said that he was too tired and hallucinated, and then walked two steps and saw that Yu Ji was still forgetting to choose a doll. After his mind stabilized, Lu Xuan refocused his gaze on the corner just now.

It was empty, and there was not the slightest human figure, nor was there any trace of anything unusual there.

I said, I must have been too nervous and hallucinating. Lu Xuan sighed and comforted himself.

However, just as he wandered his gaze elsewhere, a chill suddenly rose from his heel to the Heavenly Spirit Gai.

In the shadows of another place, the figure was staring straight at him, and the look seemed to pierce a person, full of jaw-dropping intimidation.

Lu Xuan moved his lips, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his consciousness moved slightly, and Tie Jinwu, who was hiding nearby, instantly got in touch with him, and approached this side.

He didn't know when the changes in the outside world were as distant as a lifetime, and he felt that he was in another world, and the strange scenes around him were all illusory, and only the eerie figure was undoubtedly real.

It was dark, and he felt only weakness in his limbs, only a beam of light from the underworld, falling from the top of his head, revealing him to the center of the world. And those flowing scenes that have no meaning gradually melt into the darkness, and in this dynamic process of eliminating the other, Lu Xuan only feels that the world returns to black and white.

"Who are you...... the voice of resentment is like a cry, not only from the ears into the mind, but also from the bottom of the heart. Inside and outside, the ethereal sound makes people panic.

"Who are you! Pretending to be a ghost! Although he was extremely afraid, Lu Xuan still forcibly mustered up the courage to ask.

After saying this, he only felt a cold wind blowing behind him, so that the hairs on his neck exploded. He hurriedly turned around, only to see that this ghostly phantom appeared behind him, and then the phantom appeared one after another, forming a regular circle centered on the point where he was.

"At a young age, being able to defeat Ye Yao can be regarded as a genius." Because there were too many phantoms, and they couldn't be uniformly aligned as if there was a delay, this produced an echo that could fully arouse the fear in the heart.

"Ye Yao?" Lu Xuan didn't react at first, but after he knew what this person was talking about, an incomparable shock appeared in his heart.

Ye Yao had mentioned his master before he died, could it be that this person was the mysterious person lurking in the Ye family?

There was a storm in his heart, the Ye family actually had such a character, how could he never know it? In an instant, thousands of thoughts crossed his mind, and above the mine, Ye Yao and the sneaky traces of those unfamiliar faces jumped in his mind at this moment.

Could it be ...... That spirit stone mine hides Ye Yao's master?

"Are you Ye Yao's master? That is, you taught him the prototype of the domain field? Lu Xuan asked in amazement.

"Hahaha......" The poignant laughter blended back and forth, chaotic, and extremely weird, "Master? I don't take disciples in my life, it's just my sacrifice. ”

Sacrifice...... Lu Xuan frowned, at this time he had already broken free from the initial panic, and said solemnly: "I don't care where you are, what is the purpose of you looking for me at this time?" ”

"Since I came to you, I naturally have something to ask for, and you are also the most suitable person I have seen so far. It's just that you haven't met my requirements yet, and when you cultivate to the realm of rational contemplation, it's not too late to come back. ”

"Why should I listen to you?" Lu Xuan asked in an unkind tone.

"Hahahaha, you will naturally understand when the time comes, what kind of power the cloud-turning hand of fate has. I'm not here to find you today, it's not to ask for trouble, this remnant soul doesn't have the ability to attack, it can only temporarily paralyze your nerves. Therefore, what you see and hear at this time is just an illusion constructed by using the subconscious tendencies of your consciousness to take advantage of the situation. ”

Hearing this detailed explanation, Lu Xuan's heart was a little settled.

"In order to promote our relationship, I will not order you without empty words. If you take this thing first, it will be regarded as a deposit that you can come back to me after you reach the realm of Rational Contemplation. ”
