Chapter 135: Solicitation in the Night
Although the man in black only had half of his face sideways, Lu Zhan had already recognized that person was Qing Ji. Looks like she's coming specifically for him.
Since there was a beautiful woman who came specifically for him, Lu Zhan naturally would not dodge, he followed behind Qing Ji and walked into the deep alley together.
Qing Ji walked to the depths of the alley, and seeing that there were no idle people waiting around, she suddenly stood up and fell on the roof next to her.
Lu Zhan followed closely and also climbed onto the eaves, only to see Qing Ji flying from room to room, like a crane shadow crossing in a cold pond, flying and shuttling between the ridges.
Lu Zhan had no choice but to urge the gas machine to be lifted and flew behind Qing Ji, and the two of them quickly passed through a residential area one after the other.
Leaping to the roof of a temple hall that looked quite large, a seven-story exquisite pagoda appeared in front of her, only to see Qing Ji spin and jump, her figure flew straight up, and jumped straight to the top of the pagoda, she stood on the eaves of the top of the tower, and beckoned to Lu Zhan below.
Lu Zhan chased to the bottom of the pagoda, looked up, and saw that the pagoda was more than 20 zhang high, and he jumped with all his strength, and I was afraid that he would not be able to reach the top of the tower at once. However, he calculated in his heart that he could borrow some strength from the eaves corner of the fourth floor.
So he stomped on the ground with both feet, and his body flew upward, and when he reached the fourth floor of the pagoda, his momentum was somewhat exhausted, so he landed on the eaves beam, and with a little strength of his feet, he flew up again, and jumped straight to the corner of the eaves at the top of the tower, and landed gently on the ridge of the eaves.
Kiyohime was sitting on the edge of the sharp corner of the tower with her knees bent, using one of her beautiful feet to pluck the bronze wind chimes hanging on the sharp corner, and the jingling and pleasant sound came out, which was unique in this dark night.
Seeing Lu Zhan coming, she patted the ridge beside her and motioned to sit down.
Lu Zhan nodded slightly, walked to her side, and sat down generously. He turned his face sideways to look at Qing Ji, only to see that the hood she had put on her head was poked out, her straight hair was casually draped over her shoulders, she propped her pointed chin on her knees, and those beautiful eyes were indeed staring at the starry sky in the depths of the night dome in the distance, and the moonlight was forced by layers of black clouds, and the moonlight was very sad.
The faint shadow of the moon reflected her fair face in a particularly cold light, and then reflected the night clothes and a pair of bottomless black pupils, which couldn't help but make people feel that the woman in front of them was really full of elusive mystery.
For a long time, neither of them spoke, as if they had established a tacit understanding with each other, just to quietly look at the night view of the city called Hongzhou City, quietly observe the depth and distance of the starry sky tonight, or quietly listen to the heartbeat and breathing of the person sitting next to them.
Who is this person?
The only thing I don't want to explore is the real thoughts in each other's hearts, because both of them actually know it, maybe the next step may not be a good result.
After a moment of silence, Qing Ji gently opened her teeth and said, "Do you know? From the first time I saw you tonight, I thought you were something special. ”
Lu Zhan let out an "oh", scratched his head and said: "I also think that Miss Qingji is very different, not only referring to your peerless beauty, but also to the mysterious temperament that is elusive and faintly majestic. ”
Qing Ji raised her head, her jade fingers gently brushed the hair on her forehead, turned her head sideways and asked him with a shallow smile: "So are you attracted by my special temperament and want to hold on to it?" Or do you have a trace of fear and doubt, and want to retreat from me?"
Lu Zhan's heart trembled slightly, this woman, when she is not smiling, makes people feel that she is like a fairy outside the sky who does not eat fireworks in the world.
But when she smiled, she gave birth to an incomprehensible beauty.
He turned his gaze to the distant stars and men, and replied: "It doesn't matter if you retreat, or if you are curious and entangled, I just hope that you don't want to enter a fantasy like the sound of the piano again, and I don't know whether it is true or false, and I can't extricate myself." ”
"You are so annoying?" Qing Ji took a sip, smiled like a child, and shook lightly, "How can you respond to a girl's invitation to you like this, Lu Zhan, can't you hear the sound of my piano in the illusion?"
Lu Zhan smiled, but he led the topic elsewhere: "The child who led away my entourage just now was dressed up by Miss Rou Ji, right?"
"yes. ”
"I hope Miss Rouki doesn't hurt him. ”
"It's hard to say. The smile on the corner of Qing Ji's mouth became even stronger: "Your entourage scolded her for not having long eyes, and also scolded her for being a little thief." If Rou Ji didn't give him some hardship, it was impossible. But I think you seem to be very concerned about your subordinates, which is very different from those children of wealthy families who are used to seeing them. ”
Lu Zhan turned his gaze to her bright and incomprehensible face, and asked, "Miss Qingji, please speak, what is the matter with you deigning to come to Lu tonight?"
Qing Ji blinked her eyes wide, "Lu Zhan, you don't know how to say some coaxing polite words at all, is there anyone like you to a girl?"
"You're no ordinary girl. Lu Zhan looked directly into her eyes: "Although you are not very old, girl, your mind and martial arts cultivation have long been far beyond ordinary girls. ”
Qing Ji sighed faintly: "It seems that I don't give you a very good impression." ”
"But it's not bad, at least I know you can come to see me in the open, not just hide in the shadows and engage in intrigues. ”
"Okay, if this is a compliment, my little sister has accepted it, then I won't go around the bend with you]. Qing Ji wiped the smile from her face and said, "I am originally a barbarian. ”
Lu Zhan said "um", not so surprised: "So what?"
A hint of surprise flashed on Qing Ji's face, "The barbarians have been enemies of your Great Chu State and Great Sui Kingdom for hundreds of years, aren't you nervous or afraid at all after you know Xiaomei's true identity?"
Lu Zhan raised his eyebrows: "The Great Chu Empire and the Great Sui Empire are also feuds, and they have been attacking each other for hundreds of years. Since they are all enemies, they will fight when they come, and they will surrender after fighting, so why do you need to show nervousness, afraid that these enemies will come with weak emotions. Besides, I have heard that beautiful women are abundant in the barbarian empire for a long time, and now I can see that Miss Qingji is so beautiful and fragrant, which proves that this is true. ”
"It seems that I have greatly underestimated the state of mind and bearing of your young man. Qing Ji sighed softly and said: "Generally, when you people in Da Chu, Da Sui or Sangyang hear the word barbarian, their first impression is that they are full of long hair, with their breasts exposed, their whole body covered with oil paint, and they speak in a whisper, eating flesh and blood, and a monster with fangs in their mouths. And you, when you heard that I was a barbarian, were neither surprised, nor afraid, nor showed contempt, which was beyond my expectation. ”
Lu Zhan smiled and said: "I heard a sage say that all people are born equal. It's just that some people with ulterior motives have divided the concept of so-called 'class' or 'race', which has greatly blinded the eyes of everyone in the world, and has become the biggest and most illusory illusion. And I, Lu Zhan, was born between slaves and humbles, and since I was a child, I have suffered from white eyes, tasted the warmth and coldness of the world, and only relied on my blood to kill all the way to the current peak of condensation. So in my Lu Zhan's heart: only talk about the enemy and me, no matter anything else! So Miss Qingji, you came to meet in the dark, but you don't know if you are my enemy, or my friend?"
"Oh, no wonder. Qing Ji nodded slightly: "No wonder you have always been so indifferent." It's not like those noisy children of the family, who are all scrambling to show their superior status and sense of honor. ”
"Well, since you haven't forcibly distinguished the notion of 'race,' I think we should be friends and not enemies tonight. Her beautiful eyes stared at Lu Zhan, and she said word by word: "I came to invite you to join our Barbarian Alliance!"
"Join you?" Lu Zhan repeated softly, "You mean to let me betray my Great Chu Empire and join your Barbarian Alliance Empire?"
"You can understand it that way. ”
"No, I can't. Lu Zhan shook his head categorically: "Our Lu family has been assisting the Great Chu royal family since the time of the first generation of the ancestors, since you have identified yourself, girl, then you might as well tell the truth, if you invade my Great Chu in the future of the Barbarian Alliance Empire, we can only become enemies, and it is impossible to have the idea of friends when we meet each other on the battlefield." ”
Qing Ji's eyes were cold, and she said lightly: "Lu Zhan, do you know what your words mean when you say this?"
"Yes. Lu Zhan raised his head and replied: "It means that girl, you are very likely to kill me." And in the face of an existence that has stepped into the realm of chemical strength, I know that I am invincible, but I still have to draw my sword to meet him, and I will not be guilty of the snake for the sake of my surname. ”
Qing Ji's wonderful eyes stared at Lu Zhan tightly, and the look in her eyes changed uncertainly, suddenly cold, then melancholy, and suddenly hesitant, which was not in line with her demeanor as a powerhouse in the power realm.
And although Lu Zhan maintained a posture of sitting upright at this time, the qi in his body had begun to circulate rapidly, traveling all over his body meridians. Just from the posture of jumping up to the tower just now, Lu Zhan could already see that this Qing Ji's martial arts attainments must be above him, and he has been firmly in the realm of transforming strength.
He knew that such a powerhouse in the Transformation Realm would either not make a move, and once he made a move, it would be an earth-shattering killing move, and he might not be able to stop it with all his might.
The light in Qing Ji's eyes suddenly dissipated after a few rounds, but it returned to the posture of an awe-inspiring iceberg beauty.
She said lightly: "I don't think you have seen the future situation of your Great Chu Empire yet.The high priest of our Barbarian Alliance has already determined with the method of innate prophets that the qi of your Great Chu Empire has been exhausted, even if my Barbarian Empire does not come to destroy it, there will be other forces to destroy it." The reason why we are actively taking an offensive posture now is simply that we don't want to give those who are more ambitious a head start. Hehe, don't you see it yourself? Your Great Chu Empire is now in internal and external difficulties, with rebellions and restlessness in all directions, coupled with the internal corruption of the country and the endless internal strife of the imperial family, these are all harbingers of a country's collapse and destruction. ”
