Volume 2 The Wind Rises Chapter 211 The Snow Stops and the Wind Breaks (Finale)
"The hosts... Master? ”
Butterfly Phantom Yi pushed Lin Dongjiu, who was looking at the sky and lost his mind, dusted off the thick snow on his shoulders for him, and reminded him loudly:
"Master, we should go back, otherwise Sister Ruxue and Peaches will be worried."
"Oh, good..."
Lin Dongjiu came back to his senses, as if he had just woken up from a big dream, and stood for a while before saying:
"Let's go."
Butterfly Phantom Yi was about to get up and fly away with Lin Dongjiu, but they heard an old voice sound behind them:
"Little friend, please stay!"
Butterfly Huanyi was shocked in her heart, she didn't notice when there was an extra person behind her, so she protected Lin Dongjiu, took out the light sword and twisted to stab.
Lin Dongjiu's hands were quick, he raised his hand to hold the wrist of the butterfly phantom clothes, and said:
"Don't be nervous, Fluttershy, I know him."
Butterfly Phantom Yi looked at the words and saw that this uninvited guest was an old man who was not good-looking or even dressed a little sloppily.
Lin Dongjiu's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he said lightly:
"Senior, you're finally willing to show up."
Lao Dao showed a kind smile: "When the time comes, I will naturally appear." ”
Lin Dongjiu's forehead jumped with green tendons, and explained to Butterfly Phantom Yi:
"Fluttershy, you go back first, I have something to tell him."
Butterfly Phantom Yi trembled slightly when she heard his voice, as if she was trying to control her emotions.
"That's good!"
After hesitating for a moment, Butterfly Phantom still nodded, turned around and flew away.
Waiting for the butterfly phantom clothes to fly away, Lin Dongjiu's eyes instantly turned red, and he yelled at Lao Dao:
"When the time comes... What is the ripe time, is it that Nie Weiwei is dead, is the time ripe! ”
He suddenly raised his fist, threw a punch at Lao Dao, knocked Lao Dao to the ground, and then punched one punch after another, and roared:
"Nie Weiwei is your apprentice! You have the ability to save her, right, but you tell me, why did you teach her the art of military demysticism, why did you watch her die, why didn't you save her in advance, you told me... Here's why! ”
"Little friend, God's will is unbearable, this is not something I can explain clearly in a few words, you calm down and listen to me talk to you."
Lao Dao's voice came from behind Lin Dongjiu, and then he saw that the old Dao he had beaten had already turned into a phantom, and every punch he threw was actually just hitting the snow.
"To tell you the truth, I can indeed save Dongdong, after all, Dongdong is my apprentice, of course I won't watch my apprentice be killed, but I can't do this."
After venting just now, Lin Dongjiu calmed down a little, and he said weakly: "Why, you make it clear." ”
Lao Dao stroked his beard and said: "Because Dongdong's life is very special, she will eventually have a catastrophe in her life, and it will kill her." In order to help her resolve the catastrophe, I have deduced countless times, but the final result is that there is no solution to the catastrophe, even if she escapes a catastrophe, there will be a catastrophe, she can't escape it, because..."
Lao Dao said quietly: "Because I deduced that all her deaths are related to you, she will die for you, this is doomed, but it is only a matter of time." ”
"Will... Death because of me? ”
Lin Dongjiu staggered, and there was no blood on his face.
Lao Dao saw it in his eyes and continued:
"And among the death calamities she will face, the Soling Tower Tribulation is her only life calamity, and it is also the largest calamity she has created. Of course, this life is not a life of escape, but a life of rebirth. Because Dongdong's death in this life does not mean the end of her life, but she will pay the price of death in exchange for a great opportunity for her.
And in other words, if I save her this time, then the next time she faces death, she will end up even more miserable, and her death is meaningless, you see? ”
Lin Dongjiu was silent, and after a long time, he raised his head and said, "You mean, can I see Dongdong again?" ”
"Of course!"
Lao Dao showed a meaningful smile:
"Dongdong and you have a great karmic entanglement, after she is reincarnated, the bond will make the two of you meet again, you can rest assured."
Lin Dongjiu was like grasping a life-saving straw, but he did not sweep away the haze because of the old words, but smiled weakly:
"And she, will it still be her?"
A hint of cunning flashed in Lao Dao's eyes, but he concealed it well, and just smiled:
"If you believe it, she will be her, but if you don't believe it, she is just a flower like her."
Lin Dongjiu was stunned, and didn't say anything for a long time...
"Alright, the time is coming, I should go back."
Lao Dao broke the silence and said, "Xiaoyou, your luck is still too bad to support the path you want to go down next, so let Poor Dao help you again." ”
After speaking, he stretched out his hand and pointed into the distance, and made a magic decision.
Lin Dongjiu looked in the direction of his finger, which was the direction of the Burial Dragon Mountain Range.
Then, Lao Dao stretched out another finger and pointed it at Lin Dongjiu's eyebrows.
Lin Dongjiu's dragon pupils opened on their own, but he saw that the sky in the direction of the Burial Dragon Mountain Range rose with golden qi that was invisible to the naked eye, rushing towards the place where he was.
The majestic golden qi was empowered into his body, but he didn't feel anything, and his cultivation didn't improve.
But listening to the old way, this golden gas seems to be luck...
After all the golden qi was absorbed into Lin Dongjiu's body, Lao Dao clapped his hands and muttered in a voice that Lin Dongjiu couldn't hear:
"The old dragon is really full of treasures, anyway, these dragon qi will dissipate sooner or later, and it will be considered to be the best use of it if it is given to the Dao Breaker, maybe it will feed back the dragon clan for a great creation, old dragon, old dragon, you died unjustly..."
Lin Dongjiu took a deep breath and said with burning eyes:
"Senior, who are you sacred?"
From the first time he saw this old Taoist, he knew that this old Taoist was not an ordinary person, and it was estimated that the old Taoist sold him Dan furnace and left clues to the tomb, which was also his intention.
Later, in Nie Weiwei's courtyard, Nie Weiwei said that after she stole the talisman, Lao Dao did not let her hand over the talisman to Qiu Qianyan as soon as possible.
And the time when Nie Weiwei stole the talisman was when he and Butterfly Phantom Yi began to plan the layout, and at that time all the plans had not yet been put into action.
Now it seems that Lingyunguo's big chess game seems to be his Qiu Qianchang game, but in fact, there is an invisible black hand in this game of chess, fiddling with the chess pieces little by little, changing the direction of the chess game...
And what made him even more uneasy was that he didn't know why Lao Dao wanted to help him!
Could it be that he has a deep bond with Nie Weiwei?
Is this reasonable?
Lao Dao did not answer his question, but raised his hand and pointed to the sky.
"God?"
Lin Dongjiu was stunned for a moment, and swallowed silently and spat at the mouth.
Lao Dao smiled and said slowly: "Before leaving, Poor Dao will send you another piece of advice." ”
Lin Dongjiu's attitude changed, and he said, "Senior, please speak!" ”
"Little friend, as I said earlier, you are burdened with all kinds of causes and effects, and you have inherited a fate that you can't get rid of, and the whirlpool of fate in your body will only involve more and more people, you must know how to analyze and choose.
Moreover, for various reasons, your existence will be exposed in the near future, and at that time, there will be many people like me who will come to you, but friend or foe, you have to distinguish for yourself, don't be a pawn of others..."
"My existence... What kind of being am I? Why did the people above come to me? What do you know, old-timer? ”
Lin Dongjiu asked a series of questions, but Lao Dao didn't answer him, just said with a smile:
"When the time comes, go up and come to Tianji Pavilion to find me..."
After speaking, the old way dissipated into the air like a puff of green smoke, and disappeared again.
Tianji Pavilion... Lin Dongjiu wrote it down, standing in place and desperately digesting the information revealed by the old way, but he still seemed to understand it, and his mind was numb.
Seeing that it was not early, Lin Dongjiu sighed faintly, got up and flew towards the imperial city.
...
In the palace, in the huge welcome hall, more than a dozen tables of banquets filled a hall, and the guests present, regardless of their status, were on the list of invitations, regardless of whether they were distinguished or not.
Of course, no one will not give Lin Dongjiu face and let the wine table appear empty.
It's just that the atmosphere at the banquet is really weird, the food and wine have already been prepared for the table, but no one moves chopsticks, the guests are full of whispers, and women like Su Ruxue and Peaches are even more sad, looking at the door from time to time.
Fortunately, Butterfly Phantom Yi came back to control the scene in advance and explained the situation to everyone, otherwise the major sect masters and city lords would have to stay in peace and leave the scene to find people.
After Butterfly Phantom came back for a while, the guests rioted again, only to hear a neutral voice outside the door:
"You've been waiting for a long time, the kid has encountered a bit of a situation here, and I'm really sorry for delaying everyone to drink and eat!"
Lin Dongjiu strode into the main hall, and he made amends to the big guy with a red face.
When everyone saw Lin Dongjiu return safely, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
Hong Yun looked concerned and was about to get up, when Elder Fang Lei beside him pressed him down and scolded with a laugh:
"Good you stinky boy, the old man has lived so long, and it is the first time that he has seen a host who is later than the guests! If you don't drink with us tonight, I'll call Ruxue back to Chiqing Peak tomorrow, and then let you and He Qing clean the toilet for me! ”
He Qing: "? ”
He Qing did not sit with Jiang Yun away from them, but sat next to Yin Tao with a big face.
He immediately protested loudly: "I don't accept it! ”
After speaking, he added: "Unless Senior Brother Jiang is also called..."
Jiang Yunli's hand shaking the wine glass suddenly stiffened...
The guests laughed, and the stiff atmosphere warmed up.
And after Lin Dongjiu told everyone about Qiu Qianchang's death, the atmosphere at the celebration banquet completely ushered in a climax, and no one did not wave their hands and cheer, and they all raised their glasses to celebrate.
Although the Demon Palace was defeated, after all, Qiu Qianbian did not die, after all, it was a lump left in everyone's hearts, and now that Qiu Qianbian was dead, this celebration banquet seemed to have become a celebration banquet in the real sense.
Lin Dongjiu wandered between the wine tables, and he first toasted to the three sect masters of Liao Yin, Wei Xinghai, and Subei in turn.
Su Bei is a pro-father-in-law, not to mention for the time being, Wei Xinghai and Liao Yin, the two big men, one is a business partner, and the other is Hua Yueyao's master, and she still has to ask her, so she can't be lazy.
After three glasses of wine, Lin Dongjiu struck while the iron was hot, and made a request with Liao Yin to invite the elders of their sect to come to the palace to worship.
As Lin Dongjiu expected, Liao Yin was really reluctant at first, but under the strong persuasion of the old man and Sect Master Wei, Liao Yin could only "reluctantly" agree.
After gnawing Liao Yin's bone, Lin Dongjiu drew a few big pies for Wei Xinghai on the "Southern Spirit Domain Dandao Market Strategic Development Blueprint".
Sect Master Wei was so happy to eat the cake that Lin Dongjiu left the guest seat with satisfaction, and went to the city lord's table to contact his feelings...
...
In the middle of the night, the snow did not stop, and the guests were scattered.
Lin Dongjiu sat at the main table dejectedly, eating cold dishes, and watched the palace maids clean up the messy hall with drunken eyes.
"Like snow, another drink..."
Su Ruxue frowned and persuaded:
"Xiaolin, don't drink anymore, the guests are gone."
"Alright then, you guys should rest early, I'll go back to sleep..."
Lin Dongjiu held the wine jug and staggered out, leaving the women looking at each other.
Butterfly Phantom Clothes try to lower the sense of existence as much as possible, pretending not to know anything...
...
The heavy snow in Lingyun Country fell for three days in a row, and at noon on the third day, the shy sun was willing to show its head.
Luoxia Sect, the forbidden place of the sect.
Lin Dongjiu opened the forbidden place and said to the butterfly phantom clothes beside him:
"Fluttershy, I've wronged you to hide here these days, and I'll pick you up when the limelight passes."
"There is nothing to be a master, for the slave family, it is just a change of place to cultivate."
Butterfly Phantom shook her head, but she was a little worried:
"Master, do you think Chen Yi will let the Great Desire Priest come to arrest you?"
"No, it won't."
Lin Dongjiu gave an affirmative answer, saying:
"Chen Yi is very ambitious, far beyond my imagination!"
"He knows too many secrets about me, so he won't let me go, and it is precisely because of this that he won't reveal too much information about me to the Great Desire Priest, lest my fat be taken away by the Great Desire Priest first."
Butterfly Phantom Yi nodded, and said with a somewhat unnatural expression: "However, if the Great Desire Priest can't find the slave family, he will still come to trouble you, and then..."
Lin Dongjiu said with relief: "Don't worry, Chen Yi will help me deal with it, besides, I remember you told me that the Great Desire Priest likes to achieve his goals at the lowest cost, and I still have some bargaining chips to compete with the Great Desire Priest, and he shouldn't be easy to attack me." ”
Lin Dongjiu's face was relaxed, and he said with a smile: "Let's say it first, if the Great Desire Priest really comes here, I have my own follow-up preparations, don't do something stupid in order not to affect me, and don't blame me for not appreciating it then." ”
But he is really not afraid of Butterfly Phantom Yi doing stupid things, these days Butterfly Phantom Clothes are being watched by him closely, and since he has fully comprehended the Great Sunset Xia Gong, he is the master of this forbidden land, without his order, Butterfly Phantom Yi will not want to sneak out when he enters the forbidden land.
"Don't worry, master, the slave family won't do such a stupid thing..."
Butterfly Phantom Yi responded affectionately, and before leaving, she called Lin Dongjiu again:
"Wait, master, do you remember this?"
Butterfly Phantom Yi spread out his palm, revealing a small and clear jade pendant.
Lin Dongjiu nodded and said, "Of course I remember, when I won the big competition, you gave me the jade pendant." ”
Butterfly Phantom Yi bit her lip and said, "Master, this jade pendant has no hands and feet that the slave family has moved, don't dislike it, can you accept it again?" Think of it as a gift from the slave family. ”
"Look at what you said, how could I dislike it."
Lin Dongjiu took the jade pendant and hung it carefully on his waist in front of her.
Butterfly Phantom Yi nodded with satisfaction and said, "Then master, you promise the slave family again, never take off this jade pendant, okay?" Otherwise, the slave family will think that you don't want the slave family. ”
"Good, good!"
Lin Dongjiu nodded helplessly, only thinking that the butterfly phantom clothes were playing a child's temperament.
Butterfly Phantom smiled happily, got up and kissed him, and then entered the forbidden place satisfied.
Lin Dongjiu touched his cheeks, shook his head and smiled, and turned to leave.
Entering the forbidden land, passing through the narrow corridor, Butterfly Fantasy's originally ruddy cheeks suddenly became pale as paper, her expression showed great pain, and she leaned against the wall and walked in little by little...
...
Lin Dongjiu returned to Xianyun Peak and saw that the little girl and Su Ruxue were building a snowman in the yard, so he moved a chair out and lay on it basking in the rare sun.
Squinted for a while, and found that someone was gently pushing him, Lin Dongjiu opened his eyes, and saw that it was a round little girl in a dress, and couldn't help laughing:
"What's the matter, girl, are you tired of playing?"
The little girl shook her head, and said in a milky voice:
"Big brother, Sister Ruxue told me that you beat all the bad guys away!"
At this time, Su Ruxue also came over with a smile and put a small coat on the little girl.
Lin Dongjiu's eyes were full of pampering, he touched the little girl's head, and said with a smile:
"Yes, is the big brother amazing?"
The little girl nodded vigorously, blinked her innocent eyes and said:
"That big brother beat away the bad guys, Sister Dongdong can come back, I miss her so much!"
Su Ruxue's smile suddenly froze, and Lin Dongjiu's hand suddenly stiffened.
Lin Dongjiu only felt that his throat was a little dry, but he still said softly:
"Girl, Sister Dongdong told me that she was forced to arrest you at that time, I hope you don't blame her."
"I won't blame Sister Dongdong, the big brother said that Sister Dongdong was deceived by bad people!"
The little girl showed the most innocent smile and asked persistently:
"When will Sister Dongdong come back?"
Lin Dongjiu was speechless for a few seconds, then sat up straight and said with a serious expression:
"Sister Dongdong told me that her current strength is not enough to protect Rourou, so she went outside to practice, and it may take a while to come back."
"I see~"
The little girl believed Lin Dongjiu's words and smiled happily: "Then I'll go build a snowman that belongs to Sister Dongdong." ”
Lin Dongjiu glanced at the yard, and after a while, the little girl had already built four or five snowmen, one of which was a big snowman, surrounded by four little snowmen...
Lin Dongjiu smiled slightly, and instructed: "Go ahead, build another snowman and come back for lunch, I'll cook today and cook something delicious for you." ”
The little girl was even happier, and ran away in a hurry.
"Lin! Winter! Nine! ”
Su Ruxue's face was gloomy, like a fried little female cat, she pinched Lin Dongjiu's ear, and said angrily:
"Lin Dongjiu, what Sister Ling'er said is really right, you are a big carrot! I didn't look at it, you found me a sister again! When Sister Ling'er comes back in the future, how can I explain to her! ”
"What do you mean I've got you another sister?"
Lin Dongjiu smiled bitterly and took Su Ruxue into his arms.
"Don't touch me!"
Su Ruxue tried her best to break free, but she twisted her waist a few times and found that she couldn't break free, so she turned her face away and stopped paying attention to Lin Dongjiu.
Lin Dongjiu had no choice but to explain: "Ruxue, listen to me, things are not what you think." Sister Dongdong that Rourou said is actually named Nie Weiwei, you should have seen her, she is the woman who fought with me last time in the Imperial City, and I was able to find the little girl thanks to her. ”
"Hmph~"
Su Ruxue snorted lightly, and her attitude improved slightly:
"What about her? If, as you said, she went out to practice, why didn't she come over to see the little girl first? ”
"She... She..."
Lin Dongjiu was reminded of bad memories, sighed and said:
"Actually, I lied to the little girl about those words, Nie Weiwei didn't go out to practice, but because of my relationship, she was caught by Qiu Qianyan and went to Soling Tower..."
He told Su Ruxue in detail about the events of that day, and finally said:
“... In order to prevent Qiu Qian's treacherous plan from succeeding, she chose to dismiss herself..."
"Soldiers? That is, to die..."
Su Ruxue's eyes widened, knowing that she had said the wrong thing, and quickly covered her mouth.
Lin Dongjiu nodded slowly.
"I'm sorry Xiaolin, I don't know what you said..."
Su Ruxue is very guilty, no matter how petty she is, what can she do with the dead...
Lin Dongjiu stood up, grabbed Su Ruxue's hand, and raised his head to the sky.
"Xiaolin, what are you thinking?"
Su Ruxue snuggled up to Lin Dongjiu's side, her head resting on his arm.
Lin Dongjiu smiled but did not answer, but his eyes were extremely firm.
Now that he has a lot of attention, Lin Dongjiu is confident that he can cultivate to the realm of heaven and man in a very short period of time, standing at the top of the powerhouse of the Immortal Spirit Continent.
At that time, he will find Mu Ling'er, find Hua Yueyao, and even fly to the fairy world to find a way to resurrect Nie Weiwei!
Leave no regrets!
"It's like snow, it's cold outside, let's go inside!"
Lin Dongjiu led Su Ruxue into the house, and Ge Ran looked back:
"Wait for me!"
(End of book!) )
