Li Qinghua stood in the night sky in a daze.

It's the night sky.

But not standing in the night sky as seen on earth.

So Li Qinghua knew that she should have guessed the identity of this woman who claimed to be Sihuai.

What kind of demon in the world can intercept a piece of galaxy and give it to the world as a gift?

"Why?"

Li Qinghua finally asked why.

Yao Ji held the umbrella diagonally, stood in the night, tilted her head to look at Li Qinghua, and then looked down at the pair of floral socks on her feet.

"Because you gave me something too."

“.......”

Although Li Qinghua's brain circuits are strange, it is not that she does not understand these things.

What kind of floral socks can be exchanged for a galaxy?

"So you're not actually a big demon?"

"Yes, I am the goddess of Wushan."

Yao Ji said calmly.

But there wasn't much shock in Li Qinghua's eyes, just as it should have been.

Perhaps those shocks had already turned into streamers and fallen into the night sky when Xinghe wore them on his wrist.

So Li Qinghua took this for granted.

That's how it should be—I'm the goddess of Wushan.

I'm a mountain ghost.

I'm Yao Ji.

But Li Qinghua's mind was still a little messy, and she stood there for a long time and didn't say anything.

So the galaxy in the world faded.

Li Qinghua and Yao Ji reappeared by the bonfire on the bank of the Muyun River.

Yao Ji sat there, looking down at the little socks on her feet, and then picked up the little worn cloth shoes and put them on her feet.

"If you're going to the Lyre Valley of the Rumors, I can send you there directly."

Yaoji put on her shoes, sat under the rocks with an umbrella diagonally, and looked at Li Qinghua quietly.

Li Qinghua looked up at the south.

After thinking about it for a long time, he shook his head and said, "Forget it." ”

"Why?"

"Because of this, it's so boring." Li Qinghua said softly. "It's like I'm waiting for someone who doesn't know how long I'm going to have to wait."

Li Qinghua thought of the Sword Sect disciple who played cards all day long, and laughed softly.

"I don't know if he's coming, so there's point in waiting."

"If someone had told me that he would or he wouldn't come, then the wait would have lost its original color."

"I'd rather not know anything and turn waiting into a painful, but sweet and happy thing."

"I don't want to know the answer early, and then the story becomes boring, and the love disappears into the long years."

Li Qinghua chuckled softly and looked at Yao Ji.

"It's the same with going to Cencher Valley."

"If you go there early, there will be a big blank space left in the story, and you will add a worry that it will be a snake, and you will not do anything, and you will worry that the story will not be complete in the end."

"That's not the trajectory of a complete life story."

"I have to go through the road one by one in the process of waiting with the feeling of not knowing anything, and if he doesn't come in the future, I won't have walked such a long journey in vain - the scenery along the way is always beautiful."

Yao Ji quietly looked at the woman in a blue and white dress, and said softly, "Then what if he came last?" ”

Li Qinghua smiled shyly, and stroked the corner of the wind-blown skirt down.

"If he comes, I'll have a lot of stories and scenery to tell him!"

Yao Ji looked at this woman named Li Qinghua in a daze, and after a long time, she turned her head and looked at the long river of clouds and mist in the night, and then looked up at the night sky full of stars.

Yes, of course, there is more to the world than just the end of the world.

So Yao Ji stood up and whispered, "I know." ”

Li Qinghua laughed softly and said, "But I also want to thank you for your kindness." ”

Yao Ji was silent for a while, and few people would use such a sentence - thank you for your kindness.

So much so that Yao Ji was a little distracted at that moment.

Suddenly I can't remember what the world said so long ago.

Is it begging?

Yao Ji shook her head, no longer thinking about these things, and looked at this woman who was like a small blue flower blooming on the bank of the night river.

"So you need to forget today's story?"

Li Qinghua was stunned, tilted her head to look at Yao Ji and said, "Why forget it?" ”

Yao Ji said softly, "Because there are people who don't like people like me, and they refuse to accept all gifts from me, thinking that they are shameful and degrading. ”

Yao Ji said, but laughed, looked at Li Qinghua, and said: "Imagine that one day, if someone thinks your chain is very good-looking, and you say that it was given to you by the goddess Yao Ji, then they will scold you, cling to ghosts and gods, and don't want to forge ahead." ”

Li Qinghua shook her head and said, "Why can't you say it?" If someone asked, I would happily tell them that it was given to me by the goddess Yaoji, a galaxy, and that such a dazzling and beautiful thing, whoever received it as a gift, would feel that it was a satisfying thing - what does this have to do with clinging to ghosts and gods? If you like beautiful things, you must avoid the reputation that you might get a vanity? If you deliberately pursue something you don't like for the sake of a reputation that is not vain, then what is real vanity? ”

Yao Ji looked at this woman who was weak on the outside, but extremely firm and clear on the inside, and then laughed softly and said, "Yes, that's the case, so you really don't choose to forget?" ”

Li Qinghua looked up at the sky and smiled, and said, "Don't, because this is a very beautiful story, and I will definitely have some friends in the future, and I will tell them this story at that time." Tell them that once on a certain day, a certain month, and a certain year, I met the goddess, I went to the heavens, touched the galaxy once, and then how I returned to the world, and how many days and nights I tossed and turned with such joy, before I could remember this story, so that I could tell them the story so many years later. ”

"Isn't that wonderful?"

Yao Ji listened very carefully, and then looked down at the pair of small flower socks on her feet, and the pair of shabby but clean shoes.

"I'll tell someone else your story, too, Li Qinghua."

Yao Ji said with a soft chuckle.

"Okay."

Li Qinghua nodded happily.

Yao Ji didn't say anything more, wearing small floral socks, stepping on clean little shoes, and holding a maple umbrella diagonally, walking towards the night.

is the opposite of Li Qinghua, the direction in which the two came and left.

.......

Along the Muyun River, there is a cliff that is not too high.

If Li Qinghua had walked a little longer here, he could see a person sitting on the cliff.

Dressed in white.

A sword intent.

A blood-colored peach blossom blooms in the heart.

A long sword is stuck in a peach blossom.

If Li Qinghua saw it, she would naturally know who this person was.

There are no people in Nanyi City who don't know who this person is.

Causal sword blades.

That's where Yao Ji was looking at it in the first place.

After the twilight rain, the sky is full of stars scattered in the world.

The figure was still sitting there.

Holding an umbrella, wearing floral socks and clean shoes, Yao Ji slowly walked along the mountain road to the cliff.

"Looks like you're happy with your first pair of shoes."

Cong Jian opened his eyes, looked at Yao Ji on the side, and said calmly.

Yao Ji said softly, "Yes. ”

Cong Blade looked down at his shoes, the soles of which had not been dusty for many years, but now there were a lot of debris, and some blood stains that had dried up.

So Cong Blade pressed his shoes down his legs and hid them.

"It's a pity she didn't see me at the time, otherwise I would have wanted to change my shoes." Cong Blade said slowly.

Yao Ji didn't care about the shoes, just quietly looked at the blood stains that had not yet dried out like a peach blossom in Cong Blade's heart, and the long sword that directly penetrated Cong Blade's heart and protruded from his back.

"I've heard your name, the Sword Sect of the World, one of the three swords in the world, one of the people in the north and south of the world." Yao Ji whispered, "So I'm a little curious about who was able to pierce your heart with your sword. ”

Cong Jian said calmly: "People who use swords, in the final analysis, are walking in the world with sword blades, and it is not surprising that such a thing happened. ”

Yao Ji quietly looked at Cong Blade's heart for a long time, and said, "I'm curious about more than that. ”

Cong Blade's sword intent was condensed in his chest, not to suppress the injury, but to use the sword intent to block the heart vein Shenhai to prevent the long sword from falling off, he cultivated the sword for thousands of years, the sword intent has been cultivated for thousands of years, and the blood is full of sword intent, if you don't suppress this sword, the tide of those sword intent is far more terrifying than the surge of blood, once this sword is pushed out, not to mention what will happen to itself, it will be wiped out by the sword intent for a hundred miles.

Cong Blade chuckled softly and said, "So you're curious about how you woke up. ”

Yao Ji said softly, "Yes. ”

Cong Blade looked down at his heart, was silent for a long time, and said, "I don't know either. ”

"What don't you know?"

"I don't know either thing."

Yao Ji looked up at the world, the galaxy on the cliff sprinkled with silver light, but it couldn't fall into the long river, just slowly rippled in those cloud-like mist.

"If you don't know either thing, then it's one thing." Yao Ji said slowly. "But I have a cursory understanding of your human story. There are only two people who can do this, Liuyun Sword Sect, Chen Yunxi, and your majesty, Shenhe. ”

Cong Blade said calmly, "It's just that there are only two that can make the world remember. ”

"Do you have any other candidates?"

"Nope." Cong Blade said calmly, "But this sword is enough to make me start to doubt everyone, including myself. ”

Yao Ji carefully felt the breath on Cong Blade's body, and said softly, "You have traces of time on your body. ”

Cong Blade raised his hand and stroked the blade of the Sword of the Heart, and said slowly, "Because I have used the Migration Technique many times, and I have also used the column words many times. I've even used the two techniques several times. In the period of time before the Minister asked me to go back a year, I had been wandering back and forth for nearly a hundred years. ”

Yao Ji raised her eyebrows and looked at the sideburns of Cong Blade, but under the black, there was a faint white hair.

"What did you find?"

Cong Blade was silent for a long time, and said softly, "Nothing. I sent a sword at the gate of time. In the ninety-ninth Counter-Current, it came back to me. ”

To be precise, it's back to the heart of Cong Blade.

So the blood blossomed into the shape of peach blossoms.

Cong Blade said this, but he chuckled.

"Because that sword went directly into my heart, I guess the man let his guard down." Cong Blade whispered, "But what he didn't expect was that I still carried out the hundredth migration. ”

"Did you see him?"

Cong Blade shook his head, stood up, stood under the galaxy, and said calmly, "I saw a corner of his robe in a hurry in the years. ”

Yao Ji looked at Cong Jian quietly and asked, "What is that?" ”

Cong Jian raised his hand and dipped some blood at the intersection of the sword blade and flesh and blood in his heart, and wrote two words on Yao Ji's palm.

Nineteen.

Yao Ji looked at the two blood-colored fonts in her palm silently, not knowing what this meant.

Looking at Cong Blade, Cong Blade also shook his head calmly.

"I don't know."

The two fell silent.

Standing on the edge of the cliff and looking at the yellow sorghum world for a long time, he turned around and looked at the north with a very tacit understanding.

On the peaks of Daze Wu Mountain, under the clouds and mist of the sky, there were faint many lights flickering.

Cong Blade said softly, "It is indeed difficult to find the landing point of the Yue Xing Array hidden in the sky. ”

Yao Ji was silent for a long time, and then said, "You want to meddle? ”

Cong Jian said calmly: "I won't care, although they are very strong, but I am not a person who does not talk about martial virtues, the Human Sword Sect has been in the world for so many years, and it will not always depend on me to support the scene." ”

"What about me?"

Cong Blade laughed and said, "I can't beat you, what's the matter?" ”

Yao Ji said softly, "You are sincere. ”

Cong Blade said slowly: "If I can sharpen the sword of Sword Cliff, this sentence seems a bit hypocritical. ”

"Will you?"

"I'm not a person from the Sword Cliff, so how can I?" Cong Blade said with a smile, "And I'm probably going to be very busy, I'm going to go to the Sword Grinding Cliff." ”

Yao Ji looked down at the sword in Cong Blade's heart.

Cong Blade raised his hand and pressed on the sword body, flicking the sword body at will, and the sword intent flowed on the cliff.

"Only the sword ladder of the Sword Cliff can suppress these sword intents and let me draw my sword out." Cong Jian said, looking at Yao Ji, "If you want to find some truth, of course you can, just like you ask me these things now. ”

"But if you want to do something else, like those witches and ghosts who are dreaming of returning to the world, then I'm sorry, Lady Goddess."

"There is a sword on the Sharpening Sword Cliff, although no one in the world may be able to pull it out alive, but if some people don't want to live, they can still pull it out."

Cong Jian sighed and said: "I can't describe what kind of sword it is to you, but in my life, the biggest regret is on that sword, in short, if that sword is pulled out by me, maybe my regret is gone, and your regret will be left." ”

Cong Blade made a gesture to draw his sword, and then slowly walked away on the cliff.

"See you next time, Lady Priestess."

Yao Ji stood on the cliff with an umbrella, quietly looking at the man in white who left with a sword in his heart.

The casual arrogance is probably the most accurate description of Cong Blade in the world.

Or maybe he's really just rambling.

It's just that his sword is so important to the world.

It's a little arrogant.

It makes sense.

It's like a young man in a green dress with a wine gourd smiling and saying simple words, but people have to listen to it.

That's probably what people with swords do.

Therefore, people in the world often hope that it is best for him to sleep quietly in the garden until he is old.

Yao Ji smiled softly, but she thought it was quite funny.

So he turned and walked into the mountains.

......

Mei Quming and Nan Dequ returned from Lingbei when night fell.

Standing on top of Nanyi City with Zhang Xiaoyu, he looked at the peaks of Wushan Mountain under the clouds and mist quite solemnly.

"Haven't they found a second landing spot yet?" Mei Quming looked at Zhang Xiaoyu and asked.

Zhang Xiaoyu shook his head and said, "As soon as the senior brothers went to the mountains, there was almost no news, and no other news came out at all. ”

The three of them all looked at it with solemn expressions, but they also had some doubts in their hearts.

Judging from the ghost thing written after someone had a fever, there should have been movement before this afternoon, but now the whole green mountain is extremely quiet.

"Have you been to see the place where Brother Senior Brother and Childe Wubei fought at the beginning?" Nan Dequ looked at Zhang Xiaoyu and said.

Zhang Xiaoyu said slowly: "There should be the last landing point, but you also know that there is a son in that place who is not sad, maybe there are still some ghost things there, and the senior brothers will naturally not run there to die." ”

Nan Dequ was silent for a while, and said, "Test it with your sword?" ”

Zhang Xiaoyu looked at the sword in his arms, this is the Parrot Island of Nandao, it seems that it was given to him by a certain big guy, Zhang Xiaoyu shook his head and said, "I want to try it." ”

Mei Quming said on the side: "There is actually not much point in trying, although the sword intent can replace some perception, but if Hua Wubei that kid is still there, your sword doesn't want to come back." ”

"......" Zhang Xiaoyu suddenly remembered that the two of them went to Lingbei, "How is the situation in Lingbei?" ”

Mei Quming sighed and said, "You guessed it right, that kid from Beitai took 300,000 Qingjia and intercepted the reinforcements of Shanyue City directly there. ”

Zhang Xiaoyu had already expected this situation before, so he didn't panic much, and turned around to look at the mountain.

"Since this is the case, then there is no need to continue to waste time there, senior brother, you go and inform everyone, directly retreat back to Nanyi City, and prepare to defend the city."

"Hmm." Mei Quming responded, turning into sword light and heading towards Qingshan.

However, before Mei Quming fell to the edge of Daze.

In the Daze green mountains, dozens of sword lights suddenly rose, but they all headed towards the sky.

The countless sword cultivators on the earth raised their heads in a daze, not knowing what was happening.

At the same time, there seemed to be countless noisy voices in the entire green mountain.

A group of hundreds of thousands of Huangliang troops, who had been waiting for a long time, finally appeared in Daze at this moment.

Zhang Xiaoyu looked at the vast crowd in Daze from afar.

There was finally a little surprise on his face.

Yes, it's not just the Huangliang Witch Ghost Road.

There are also those armor that were originally guarded on the edge of the continent and the endless deep ocean.

How many are there?

Zhang Xiaoyu thought about it for a long time, and finally remembered.

It should be 800,000.

Whether the eighty soldiers can win the battle and the eight Lingnan sword cultivators are still inconclusive.

But 800,000 can directly trample those 80,000 sword cultivators directly to death in the green mountains.

Under the guidance of the sword light, the entire Lingnan 80,000 sword cultivators quickly retreated towards Nanyi City.
