He couldn't have liked her.

How could he like her, it was very different from what he thought of the relationship between men and women.

Ling Shouyi walked resolutely, Xia Lianqiao couldn't rest assured that he was holding the hem of his skirt and catching up, just a few steps after chasing, but the young man stubbornly pursed his lips and quickened his pace.

The closer she got to him, the faster he stumbled away.

recalled the arrogant, cold and heroic young man when they met for the first time, and then saw Ling Shouyi, whose footsteps were messy and blood-stained at this time.

Xia Lianqiao moved her lips, her heart was sour, she didn't chase any further, and planned to give him a space to be alone.

Turning back to the same place, she had mixed feelings, and sat back in place, confused and in a daze.

…… She didn't really want to force him.

It's just that the brain is blank, and I subconsciously ask out of my mouth. I didn't expect it to cause so much pressure on Ling Shouyi.

She couldn't tell how she felt about Ling Shouyi at the moment, although she didn't like it as much as before, she still had a faint good feeling.

Looking at Ling Shouyi's reaction now, maybe it was really her own passion. Or maybe liking her is an unbearable and terrible thing for him.

She probably shouldn't have pressed him so much. If Ling Shouyi really likes her, it is just a momentary confusion based on a sad contract. After getting along for a while, he never felt sorry for her, and he even sacrificed his life to save her from danger. Why did she always embarrass him?

He heard her footsteps chase a few steps and then retract.

Ling Shouyi lowered his eyes, and his pursed lips were bloodless, pale and almost none.

She really didn't catch up.

He found a hidden corner, put down his sword, and sat down.

My heart is empty again, and I don't know what to do.

Before he knew it, he had already punched out a talisman, and when he saw the water ripples in front of him light up, Ling Shouyi was shocked, and he wanted to take back the water mirror but it was too late.

The bearded face in the water mirror, before he pinched off the water mirror, quickly approached the mirror, and said with a smile: "Ling Zhenjun, see you for a long time." ”

Ling Shouyi looked at it expressionlessly, he had never felt that Qu Cangfeng's face was so annoying.

"Ling Shouyi?!" In the next second, Qu Cangfeng noticed his embarrassment at this time, raised his eyebrows, and asked in surprise, "What's the matter with you?" ”

The young man's eyebrows were bloody, his eyelashes moved, his eyes were like a lone star on a cold night, and his lips spit out a few words that were so cold that they could drop ice slag: "It's none of your business." ”

He was not afraid that these words would hurt Qu Cangfeng's heart, because this person would never care where his injuries came from.

Sure enough, Qu Cangfeng just smiled, "Who can make our Ling Zhenjun look like this, it's really strange, I should let the entire Immortal Sect take a look." ”

Ling Shouyi's face was expressionless and cold, "Look at my jokes." ”

Qu Cangfeng's old face flushed: "Ahem." ”

Ling Shouyi frowned slightly, his metacarpal bones were broken, although Xia Forsythia repaired most of them, he still had a faint pain, and he didn't have the heart to make jokes with Qu Cangfeng.

"Let's say," knowing that this is a character who has nothing to do and goes to the Three Treasures Palace, in short, it is impossible to use a water mirror to come out and pull him into a homely situation. Qu Cangfeng smiled, "What's the matter with me?" ”

Ling Shouyi paused slightly, his breath was a little sluggish, but he still explained his intention, "Do you know what this thing is?" ”

After speaking, he lowered his eyes and lifted the hem of his robe.

Between the cold white and sturdy waist and abdomen, a bright peony reflected the eyes of Qu Cangfeng.

Qu Cangfeng raised his eyebrows, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

The flowers bloomed with three petals, and Ling Shouyi didn't expect it, so he couldn't help but be stunned. He had just seen it yesterday, but it was only two petals, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into three petals, so he couldn't help but be a little caught off guard.

Qu Cangfeng's eyes were stunned, and his expression slowly became serious, "What is this?" ”

Ling Shouyi was not very moved this time, and he did not hesitate to finish talking about the cause and effect in one breath.

"The fox demon did it, too?" Qu Cangfeng raised his eyebrows.

He bowed his head, "Yes." ”

Qu Cangfeng groaned: "Since this Yunzhou fox clan is doing this, this is easy to do, I will go to Langhuan Pavilion to verify it for you." ”

Ling Shouyi's thanks still sounded emotionless: "I'm tired of you." ”

Qu Cangfeng raised his eyebrows, "It's really not easy to hear thank you from your mouth." ”

Ling Shouyi was silent.

He has a tall and stubborn personality, and he doesn't want outsiders to know about the changes in him, so he didn't plan to trouble Qu Cangfeng.

Maybe it's because of the turmoil during this period of time, this peony gives him a very bad feeling, and he always faintly feels that this peony may be related to Xia Forsythia. I just want to get to the bottom of it as soon as possible.

After a while, as if thousands of years had passed, Qu Cangfeng had finally gone and returned, but his expression was very strange, as if he had seen the most shocking thing, the most surprising thing in the world, even more strange than the last time he asked him about his sad deeds.

"This flower—" Qu Cangfeng frowned at him.

Ling Shouyi: "You can say it bluntly, you don't have to twist and pinch like this. ”

Qu Cangfeng: "Didn't I ask you about your relationship with that mortal woman before?" ”

Ling Shouyi's heart sank, and a sense of foreboding swelled up.

Qu Cangfeng's temperament was also received, and there was no smile in his eyes, this was the first time Ling Shouyi had seen him with such a serious expression in all the years he had known him.

"This flower doesn't hurt people, it doesn't kill people, and it doesn't have a name. It's just the fun of the fox clan in Yunzhou on weekdays.

"If you meet someone who is tempted, every time you are tempted, you will bloom a petal until this peony is in full bloom."

Before Qu Cangfeng's words fell, Ling Shouyi's face turned pale in shock.

As if he had realized something, he quickly lifted the hem of his shirt and lowered his eyes to inspect it.

The peony on the waist is slowly unfolding the fourth petal peony.

Ling Shouyi remained motionless, as if frozen and solidified, watching the fourth petal peony completely stretch.

The pale face was miserable and deadly silent.

Under the huge shock, he finally couldn't hold it anymore and fainted.

Qu Cangfeng: "Ling Shouyi!" ”

Chapter 53

After a short time, Ling Shouyi slowly woke up.

The first reaction when I opened my eyes was to look at the peony on my waist.

The peony on the waist side is still beautiful and moving, and the flowers are four-petaled, which is shocking.

It was all like a nightmare.

Ling Shouyi closed his eyes, which stabilized his mind, and then raised his eyes to look at Qu Cangfeng.

Qu Cangfeng had pinched his chin at this time, and his eyes fell on the peony pattern with him with great interest.

Ling Shouyi regained his former composure, his eyes were as cold as spring water, indifferent and dustless, "What's so strange about this flower." ”

Qu Cangfeng rubbed his chin and answered the question, "Xiao Ling, you haven't been here for long, right?" But the speed at which you're opening up is a bit outrageous......"

"Shut up!" Ling Shouyi was cold, unbearable.

Qu Cangfeng smiled, seeing that he was angry, but he didn't provoke him again.

"There is indeed a special place for this flower."

"Every time you open a petal, you like your sweetheart a little more. I don't know how much you like that mortal girl, Xiao Ling? ”

"If it weren't for the fact that I can't leave the Immortal Gate now, I would also like to see what kind of sacredness that girl is, and make our Ling Zhenjun so unrelenting."

Ling Shouyi was like being stabbed in the death hole in an instant, and his face changed slightly.

Qu Cangfeng: "Xiao Ling, what are you going to do?" ”

Ling Shouyi clenched his fingertips, lowered his eyes slightly, and lowered his eyes with a very beautiful demeanor, like the blooming and falling of a lotus flower.

The eyelashes seem to be connected with a faint wind and snow, and there is a sound of broken gold, "Naturally, I don't want it to continue to bloom."

The young man said resolutely, Like a jade mountain toppling, there is no way to turn around.

Qu Cangfeng frowned slightly, "Although I don't understand love, I also know that feelings cannot be suppressed, and the more depressed they are, the more powerful they may be."

"Xiao Ling, I have a sentence that I have always wanted to ask you, are you influenced by your parents, this is ......"

Before the words fell, Ling Shouyi's face suddenly turned pale, and he interrupted him coldly, "It's impossible." ”

But this statement seems so thin and unconvincing at this time.

Qu Cangfeng fell silent, and glanced at the delicate young man in front of him with some pity.

Ling Shouyi's face was expressionless, his eyes looked straight back at him, and a pair of chess pieces' black eyes condensed into a faint thin ice.

Qu Cangfeng was speechless for a while.

Although he has ascended from a mortal to an immortal, he is far older than Ling Shouyi, and naturally he has experienced the old incident firsthand.

There's nothing new in the story. The youngest daughter of the Emperor of Heaven, Rou Ji, fell in love with a big demon turned into a dragon, and gave birth to Ling Shouyi by fornication. It is not allowed for the immortal gate. The Emperor of Heaven ordered people to bring back his youngest daughter Rou Ji and Ling Shouyi, and Ying Long broke into the gate of heaven to save his wife and children, and was finally captured and killed by the Tianchi.

Since Ling Shouyi was born, he has lacked parental care and caressing, and has cultivated a small old-fashioned Xiaoice Mountain that abides by the rules and precepts.

Or the lesson of his parents is too painful, Qu Cangfeng thinks that Ling Shouyi is extremely affectionate, precisely because he loves his parents too deeply, this love hidden in his heart is too strong and too painful.

made him think that the formulation of the rules had its own reasons, and breaking the rules, hurting others and hurting himself would not end well after all.

"Immortals fall in love, heaven and earth are not tolerated, immortals are emotional, and there will be disasters." Qu Cangfeng sneered at him, and fed him a sip of wine, "Xiao Ling, do you think this is really as righteous as they say?" ”

Ling Shouyi: "What do you want to say?" ”

"What I want to say, you know better than anyone else that it's not so much for the sake of all beings in this world," Qu Cangfeng sneered, "It's better to be afraid that immortals will fall in love, break their high status, and tear their immortal masks." ”

Qu Cangfeng talked about business, and Ling Shouyi lowered his eyes.

Of course he knew what Qu Cangfeng's words meant, in fact, he had also had countless doubts in the past few years, otherwise he would never be the bloodline of the Heavenly Emperor, but he was so close to the Ascension Sect.

In the immortal gate, the flies camp and the dogs, the exchange of interests, the filth and filthiness are almost thousands of miles different from the fairy atmosphere mentioned in the Taoist book.

As an immortal, the family is tired and afraid of the Ascension Sect.

…… What exactly are they afraid of?
