Chapter 620: The Secret of Shuangshu, Drink and Forget Your Worries
Lin Xi bowed his head and said, "You are qualified to be in charge of Panlong Palace in the future, you are not a small person." But there is a saying that is true, you are born rebellious, and you don't remember grudges. At the beginning, Zhang Dinghuo of Xiling Pass was known as the first fierce general in the Western Continent, but he died in your handsββ"
Yun Su Huo Ran opened his eyes, only to feel cold water on his head, his whole body was transparent, and hundreds of millions of pores were cold.
She blurted out, "What else do you know?" β
"Knows a lot." Lin Xi smiled meaningfully, "A lot of things I don't know, and I can't even think about them, Beifengdan told me." He's very attentive to everything you're doing......"
Yun Su subconsciously glanced at Jiang Chen.
The two made eye contact, and for a moment, Jiang Chen felt that Yun Su's eyes flashed with gloom, as if there was an endless mind hidden in it, and then he fled away as if frightened, and his expression was very helpless at that moment.
He almost wanted to stop Lin Xi and tell her to stop talking about it. But another longing kept him seated, listening to their conversation.
"Speaking of which, you secretly helped the Longyuan Demon and sabotage the monitoring posts of the Liu Wei family, and you also had a hard time-"
"Enough!" Yun Su's slender jade fingers clenched tightly together, as if he wanted to scratch something, "You are also hearsay, what qualifications do you have to show off in front of me?" β
Although Lin Xi was still amiable, his eyes flashed with disgust, and he smiled lightly: "If what I said is not right, although you can correct it in person, you don't have to be so angry." β
Yun Sumei's face distorted slightly: "Those things that Bei Fengdan said to tell the truth, even if you have heard it, don't you think it's too much to show off in this Dragon Palace?" β
Lin Xi's face showed contempt, and his delicate nose twisted slightly: "Do you have to tell right and wrong, the wise man has his own opinion......
Yun Su suddenly took a step forward, and the murderous aura that surged up in an instant made Jiang Chen think that she was going to do it in front of her. He hurriedly stood up, and before he could speak, Yun Su had already restrained his breath and threw a look at him, Lingxiu's eyes were black and white, as if he was sad and resentful.
Lin Xi shrank behind Jiang Chen without a trace, and said, "You're right, it's indeed a bit inappropriate to say such things when the two families are in an alliance. So...... I don't think I said it. β
At this point, the two sides died down, and Jiang Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
But after a moment, Yun Su spoke up again: "I'll make a bet with you." β
"What?" Lin Xi was wiping the blades of grass behind Jiang Chen, and raised his head suspiciously when he heard this.
"Bet on the secrets of the two of us, who will tell it first."
Lin Xi stopped his movements in surprise: "Do you really want to do this?" β
"That's all." Yun Su's tone was resolute.
Lin Xi was silent for a while and nodded slightly.
Jiang Chen saw Lin Xi's hesitation, and his heart sank slightly-it seemed that what he said yesterday was not the whole truth.
Both of these men have something to hide from themselves!
As for the details of bets, they didn't mention it, and Jiang Chen didn't guess it. At this time, he suddenly realized that his understanding of them was only superficial.
Perhaps, everyone has their own secrets, but Jiang Chen is afraid that once the secret is exposed in broad daylight, it will make them fall into a place of no return!
The three of them had their own thoughts, and they didn't speak for a long time.
The minions realized the unusual atmosphere and had long since moved away from it.
For a while, the courtyard was quiet, except for the rustling of the wind, there was only the sound of different breathing.
Qu Chenyu hid in the distance and eavesdropped, seeing that they didn't speak for a long time, she tapped her fingers on the wall with some impatience, making a rhythmic crisp sound.
Yun Su suddenly looked up at the sky, a polite smile appeared on her cold pretty face, and said, "It's almost noon, Miss Lin hasn't eaten yet, right?" My mother instructed me to do my best to be a landlord, and invite Miss Lin and several other distinguished guests of the Qingyin Hall to go to Meixiang Pavilion with me for dinner! β
"Trouble Miss Yun." Lin Xi also smiled back politely.
She waved her palm casually, and a few breaths in the distance began to approach this way.
Yun Su seemed to suddenly remember, and looked at Jiang Chen again: "Brother Chen, are you coming with you too?" β
Jiang Chen shook his head knowingly: "No, I'll go find Lao Xie in a while." β
He had already sensed from Yun Su's demeanor, Yun Su, or Yun Die, didn't want to interfere in the talks between the Panlong Palace and the Qing Hades Palace.
Do you think I'm showing too close to Lin Xi?
Thinking about it carefully, their reaction was not surprising, after all, it was rumored all over the world that they had become the son-in-law of the Qing Hades Temple, and it was natural for them to be wary......
Moreover, as an outsider, although I thought that I was only a guest in Panlong Palace for a few days, in their eyes, I was not just a pure guest, but a symbol of a complete third-party powerful force - at any time, the gang formed by the three Martial Saints could not be ignored, and this power could even be on a par with the entire Demon Clan and the Green Hades Temple! In the eyes of people like Yundie, if I intervene in the covenant, it will be more of a headache for her!
When the thoughts were flying, Lin Xi and Uncle Tu Xiaoxiao and the others who came over had already gathered and were ready to go.
Before leaving, Lin Xi turned around and showed a smile to Jiang Chen: "It may be very late to come back, you don't have to wait for me, you can eat first." β
For some reason, Jiang Chen actually felt that smile was a little erratic and a little playful.
Did I think too much...... Could it be that in the morning, too, she showed so close to me, not only because of the personal relationship of the children, but also for today's alliance?
Although she invited me to go with her before, deep down, she actually didn't want me to go, right?
β¦β¦
Looking at their backs, Jiang Chen's thoughts became more and more chaotic and complicated.
Forget it, let's go to Lao Xie for a drink!
As a former Great Sage of the Demon Realm, it is not difficult to ask where Xie Yuanmu lives.
When Jiang Chen walked in, Xie Yuanmu was sitting in the courtyard, with a plate of peanuts and a jar of wine on the table.
"Drinking alone?" Jiang Chen walked over, and the servants hurriedly added a chair and retreated far away.
Xie Yuanmu had already finished drinking a glass, looked at the empty wine glass in his hand, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said a little distractedly: "The feeling of drinking is really good." β
"I heard that you didn't drink a drop of alcohol before, is it all a rumor?" Jiang Chen picked up a cup and poured it for himself.
"It's true." Xie Yuanyu's gaze was a little wandering, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was a little more nostalgic, "For more than a hundred years, this body has never tasted fine wine. I have all beaten away those who used to persuade people to drink. β
"So today is the first time you've drunk with your real body? How does it feel? Are there any spirits in the desert that taste good? β
"It's a hundred times better." Xie Yuanmu raised his wine glass and signaled to Jiang Chen, raised his head and drank it all, then sighed softly and said, "Drinking in the desert is to forget worries, to be drunk and dream of death." Here, you will be in the mood to taste the taste of the sake itself. It's really a race to be a fairy......"
Jiang Chen accompanied him after a drink, looked at his face, and said, "Don't you have to forget your worries here?" β
"I've forgotten it all!" Xie Yuanyu stared at a whirling dead leaf falling from the treetops, and said with a smile, "That dream has been done for too long, too long, like a lifetime apart." Now that I have just woken up from my big dream, I look back at it again, and a hundred years have passed - no matter how much I hate a person and love a person, after a hundred years, I will look down on it! β
"That's right!" Jiang Chen slapped his thigh, stretched out his thumb and shook it, raised his glass and smiled, "There is no one in the world who is worth worrying about for a hundred years!" Toast to your worries! β
After the two of them finished drinking, Xie Yuanmu put down the wine glass, leaned back on the chair, indifferently with ease, and said slowly: "In the past hundred years, I have been hiding in the Northwest Desert with Lizhu, sometimes chaotic and sometimes sober, like a monster that cannot tolerate the world, coldly watching many lives and deaths in the world, but I still can't let go of the obsession in my heart!" Looking back, I wasted a hundred years for that little obsession, and I sighed! β
"People are always obsessed, it's not this, it's that. A hundred years in exchange for enlightenment, it's not too late for you! Jiang Chen said, turning his head to look around, "By the way, what about that Chu Chu girl?" If she could sit at the same table with you and drink, she would faint with joy, right? β
She ...... Still in a coma. Xie Yuanmu played with the wine glass and sighed softly, "Let her have a good rest, she has already suffered a lot." β
Jiang Chen asked a little strangely, "Aren't you going to take her away?" β
Xie Yuanmu shook his head and said in a rambling voice: "The Yunlong Department has fulfilled its oath, and nothing can restrain her, and the rest of her life should belong to her." β
"But how do you know that she didn't want to follow you?" Jiang Chen stared at his eyes and leaned forward, "You quietly ran away while she was sleeping, isn't that right?" β
Xie Yuanmu also said softly with a serious expression: "My obsession has been let go, and she should also let go." β
"But what if she can't let it go?"
"There's nothing you can't put down."
Jiang Chen looked at him for a moment, lowered his head, and slowly poured himself wine, "You are old, you are right." β
Xie Yuanmu looked at him, and when he raised his glass, he asked, "What about you?" I can see that you have concerns in your heart. Are you planning to take a trip to the Blue Underworld Temple? β
Jiang Chen was silent for a while, shook his head, picked up his wine glass, and said, "Before the battle with Shi Futu, I don't want to carry too many things. β
Xie Yuanmu took a shallow sip and said, "It seems that you haven't met a woman who can make you let go of everything......
"No, I've already met it!" Jiang Chen held the wine glass, and the smile on his face was slightly bitter, "When I was by her side, there was a moment when I even thought about giving up revenge. β
Xie Yuanmu looked at him in surprise, nodded, and did not speak.
"You must have felt the same way, right? At some point, I just want to be there for her, and not think about the hatred and the killing. The two of them live a quiet life away from the worldly strife......"
"If you can do that, it's a good choice. Your eldest brother will be pleased with this, too. β
"But after all, this is just a naΓ―ve dream. Thanks to the Peacock King for helping me shatter this dream! Perhaps under the influence of alcohol, Jiang Chen's words began to increase, and the speed of his speech was faster than usual, "They won't give me a choice at all, I can escape for a while, but I can't escape for a lifetime." After all, one day, I had to face that destined enemy, and all the wonderful and peaceful life before me was a dream bubble! Instead of waking up with regret and crying, it's better not to have this sweet dream in the first place! β
Xie Yuanmu nodded slightly: "You have already thought clearly. β
Jiang Chen took a sip of wine: "I can't turn back for a long time." β
Xie Yuanmu also took a sip: "There are many helplessness in the world, and things are often unsatisfactory. Sometimes not only is it not satisfying, but it is also necessary to do something that goes against one's heart......"
Jiang Chen nodded thoughtfully: "I came here to ask you about some news that I had to inquire." β
Xie Yuanmu was stunned for a moment: "What news?" β
"A hundred years ago, the Demon Emperor was defeated, and the Demon Queen Yundie went to the Holy City alone to assassinate the emperor, but she fell short, was recognized by Yang Mink, and almost died under the clutches of the devil." Jiang Chen raised his head, looked up at the sun in the sky, and said slowly, "I want to know, who sent her into the palace, and who helped her escape?" β
Xie Yuanmi's face was surprised: "This old thing, how can you ......?"
"It's just a thing of the past, but it may have influenced more than one generation." Jiang Chen had a wry smile on his face, "I want to know why Su'er wants to kill Chai Tianpeng and Zhang Dinghuo ......"
The sun is setting.
When Jiang Chen said goodbye to Xie Yuanji, his shadow was stretched very long, and he became more and more lonely in Xiao Xiao's cold wind.
The guards on the road did not squint.
There was silence in the Golden Wind Courtyard.
There are so many busy servants, it seems that they can't be seen now. The courtyard was empty, and all of a sudden, it seemed as if there was only one person left in the world.
Jiang Chen walked back along the flower path, and suddenly, he instinctively avoided the side.
The next moment he just moved, there was a ghostly white shadow around him, and if he hadn't recognized the opportunity early, he might have bumped into it head-on.
'It's a woman. While realizing this, the two faces were almost in one place, and Jiang Chen could almost feel the woman's breath blowing on his face, like a waterfall of green silk rushing towards his face.
He tiptoed on his heels, his body backwards, and the two faces immediately distanced themselves.
At this time, Jiang Chen saw the other party's face clearly, his eyes were bright and bright, the jade was flawless, like a snow piled up, his skin was shining with a hazy glow, and the green silk was swaying with a faint sorrow, and the slender hand that was as white as jade was slowly being put down from in front of him, and her innocent expression made people can't help but think that she was a beautiful woman who was in danger of being abrupt.
"I'm sorry, I didn't look at the ......" Jiang Chen apologized casually, and then reacted, with the angle and position of the two just now, this woman clearly took the initiative to approach?
He touched his cheek again, feeling a slight burning pain in his face. There is no wound, but there is an illusion of being cut. If you react a little slower, you're already out of phase at this time, right?
