Chapter 20: The Story of Sikong Jue
Su Tianyuan glanced at Sikong Jue, then turned to Leng Bingxin and said, "What about you?"
"What?" Leng Bing was stunned, not understanding what he meant.
"Do you care what they say?"
It turned out that this was the matter! Leng Bingxin's gaze moved away from Su Tianyuan, looked at the end of the street that could not be seen at a glance, and slowly spoke.
"Actually, there are some things that I don't care about what other people think. Whether it's misunderstanding or trust, you know it in your own heart, and that's enough. Su Tianyuan and Sikong Jue looked at her silently, thoughtful.
Suddenly, she thought about it again. Turning to them, he smiled: "Of course, the premise of casualness is that relatives and friends are not hurt by this. Both of them were stunned by her smile, although only half of her face was exposed, but it made her smile more beautiful and tender.
Unconsciously, the three of them came to a restaurant. Sikong Jue looked like he had seen his own home, his eyes were glowing golden, like a hungry man who hadn't eaten for ten days.
"Xiao Er! Hurry up and bring up all the delicious food! Hurry up!" After instructing Xiao Er, he turned around and lay on the table again, and said weakly: "Brother, I haven't eaten for three days, I'm really starving to death! By the way, I tell you, the food in this shop is called a fragrant! I guarantee that you won't forget it!"
"Why did they kill you?" Su Tianyuan took a sip of tea and asked indifferently. Leng Bingxin actually had questions, and when he saw Su Tianyuan asking, he turned his head to Sikong Jue, waiting for his answer.
Sikong Jue didn't expect him to ask like that, but he hadn't come back to his senses yet, and then sighed consciously.
"Well, maybe it's because of the throne. Sikong Jue happily drank the wine in his hand, as bold as swallowing his troubles in one gulp.
Then he smiled heartlessly, as if he was not talking about his own business.
"But aren't you brothers? How can you be so ruthless? Did you have a bad relationship with him before, or was very annoying, that's why he wanted to kill you? Leng Bingxin was very puzzled. She knew that there was an emperor in the world, just as there were heaven and earth in the divine realm, but that was not determined by heaven! I have never seen anyone who would mutilate their relatives for a position.
"How is that possible! Brother, I am loved by everyone, and flowers bloom. Aren't you all my friends? No, no. How do you know that we are brothers?" Sikong Jue began to dance with his eyebrows, and after finding that something was wrong, he restrained his expression and leaned towards Leng Bingxin.
"Oh! Leng Bingxin waved his hand.
"What is the reason why I have to kill you? Is it just because I am the crown prince?" Su Tianyuan also couldn't believe it, he had stayed in the Seven Palaces and Twelve Halls for too long, and he also wanted to know more about the worldly world at this time. And he didn't believe that it was Sikong Jue's reason, because this person was really likable!
Sikong Jue thought for a while and scratched his head with his hand. "Actually, I don't know, my brother wasn't like this before. It was only two years ago that he began to pursue me. He spread his hands with a face full of indifference.
"But it's okay, he can't kill me anyway, I still have a magic weapon to protect my body!" As he spoke, he became inexplicably proud, and his face was full of expressions that he really wanted to see if my idiot brother could kill me.
“......”
"Haven't you thought about fighting back?" Leng Bingxin said with a sip of tea.
Sikong Jue seemed to be questioned at this time, and was silent for a while. Then he raised his head and said very seriously: "For me, the brother is one, no matter what he does to me, I will never fail him, this is my promise to him, and it is also the people's expectation of us." So as long as he doesn't do anything too much, we'll always be brothers! After saying that, he smiled indifferently.
Su Tianyuan and Leng Bingxin glanced at each other silently, this was the most serious look they had ever seen on Sikong Jue's face, serious as facing a general with thousands of horses, and the smile in a blink of an eye was like a breeze blowing when the rain passed and the sky was clear. The star-shining pupils seemed to see someone in the distance through them.
"Ah! My food is finally here, I'm starving to death! Come on, come on, I'll give you a taste of what it means to be delicious!" Sikong Jue saw his food come up, and immediately returned to his heartless appearance.
"That's it, this boy is really discerning, the dishes in our store are the best in the city, the two guest officers can eat with confidence!" Xiao Er hurriedly responded to Sikong Jue to promote his own dishes. Sikong Jue's face was almost buried in the bowl, and he didn't forget to give Xiao Er a thumbs up.
"The guest officer eats first, and then calls me if he has something. Xiao Er politely said hello and left.
"Slow down, no one will rob you. Leng Bing kindly reminded him.
"Eat quickly, I'm in for a treat!" he said, tossing the sword around his waist.
Seeing him acting like this, Su Tianyuan was helpless, bent down and picked up the sword and put it back next to him.
"This sword is an artifact, it needs to be kept carefully, don't lose it. ”
"Don't climb! Father Wo told me that this sword is an ancient god chicken, and he has already recognized me as a pig and lost it!" Sikong Jue said inarticulately. After chewing it out, he said, "As long as I'm lucky, it will come back on its own." ”
"Are you always so unwary of others?" Leng Bingxin was a little displeased. Although she knew that she was not a bad person, how could she be so unsuspecting when she walked the rivers and lakes. Who knows if he will meet bad people in the future.
Thinking that this guy was deceived because of this in the future, she really couldn't bear it. After all, I haven't seen such a simple and affectionate person for too many years!
Sikong Jue looked confused, "I'm not like this to everyone!" Then he turned to Leng Bingxin and smiled: "I just believe in you, I believe that you are good people, and you won't hurt me." My instincts have always been accurate!" he raised an eyebrow.
"Cut" snorted coldly and buried himself in eating. At this time, it is false to say that there is no feeling in my heart, who can have absolute trust in someone who has never met, even she can't do it.
Sikong Jue turned to Su Tianyuan again, and said with a smile: "I'm right, right? Brother Su." Su Tianyuan nodded and glanced at Leng Bingxin, who was eating. A haze flashed in his eyes, and then he lowered his head to eat his own food. When Sikong Jue heard the satisfactory answer, he happily gnawed on his chicken legs.
Leng Bingxin suddenly remembered the scene where he was accidentally injured by Su Tianyuan, and wondered: "By the way, were you arresting something at that time? Even I didn't notice your approach. Originally, this question should have been asked when she woke up, but because of the misunderstanding at that time, Leng Bingxin forgot about it.
"Hmm. I was originally on a mission in the Traces of Nine Ponds, but when I was about to leave, I accidentally saw Lethe Grass. I've been looking for it for hundreds of years, and suddenly I can't help but see that it's a little out of control. That's why I lost my sense of proportion and injured you by mistake. Su Tianyuan said in a serious tone.
"Lethe Grass!" Leng Bingxin looked at him in disbelief. Sikong Jue also slowed down his eating speed and found time to listen to their conversation.
"That's right, it's Lethe Grass!" Su Tianyuan repeated. The realm of the Six Realms has been looking for Lethe Grass for tens of thousands of years, and he doesn't know why, but for him, Lethe Grass is his chance to find Mengqin. At first, the master promised him to do his best to help him find it, but there was no news, and later the master told him that maybe the only person in the world who could find traces of this person was Lethe grass!
To this end, he also joined the search for Lethe grass.
"Impossible! I also saw my predecessor in the Trace of Nine Ponds at that time, but at that time, he was obviously taken away by the man in black wearing a mask! It stands to reason that it should be impossible to see my senior during the time when you accidentally injured me!" Leng Bingxin gave a general description of the scene at that time, but concealed the reason why he was looking for Lethe Grass, as well as the conversation with the black-robed senior.
No matter how you think about it, it doesn't feel right. Could it be that the man released his predecessor after letting himself go?
"Are you sure what you're seeing is really Lethe Grass?" Leng Bingxin confirmed again.
Su Tianyuan nodded firmly and said, "I have been looking for Lethe grass for so many years, although I have never caught it, but I have seen it a few times, I am sure that I have not admitted my mistake!"
Leng Bingxin lowered the chopsticks in his hand and knocked on the table a few times, thinking seriously about this problem.
Is it just that the man took the senior away and didn't want me to know the whereabouts of my parents? And according to what Su Tianyuan said, he had been following Lechuan Cao closely at that time, and then he didn't notice my existence because he was too focused. Could it be that I didn't notice them approaching me because my spiritual power had not fully recovered? Thinking about it, even if my spiritual power had not fully recovered, it would not be so weak! But on the surface of all kinds of signs, it seems that this is the case!
Forget it, let's just take it as such!
"What is Lethe Grass? Is it a kind of Ganoderma lucidum, and can eating it prolong life or improve cultivation?" asked Sikong Jue as they both fell into deep thought. The two of them were interrupted by his words, Su Tianyuan was almost choked by his question, he glanced at him with cold disdain, and replied: "What's more, if you're lucky, you can go directly to Bliss, and if you're unlucky, you can also go to the Eighteen Hells to see the scenery." Su Tianyuan couldn't help it now, and laughed directly.
Sikong Jue pursed his mouth and continued to lower his head to nibble on his chicken legs.
How can there be such a god......
After finishing Sikong Jue, Leng Bingxin turned his head to look at Su Tianyuan and said, "According to this view, the predecessor must have been let go by that person, you don't have to worry, there will always be a chance to see it in the future." Su Tianyuan smiled slightly and said softly: "Don't worry, I'm not in a hurry." ”
"Have you heard?
"What! Didn't you just die two days ago?!"
"Who says it's not, this prime minister's house is now panicking. Everyone said...... "The people who spoke looked left and right, and several people came closer."
"There has been a monster invasion in the Prime Minister's Mansion. As soon as these words came out, the four peers were all embarrassed.
A few days ago, a Divine Monarch came to the Seven Palaces and Twelve Palaces, saying that there were a lot of monsters mixed in our Qingtan City, maybe they were lurking around us!"
"I'm still telling you this because we've known each other for decades, and when I say this, my heart is panicked! I will leave this Qingtan City with my wife and children in two days. Don't reveal my whereabouts!" The man said to his companions as low as he could, and several of them could not help but look terrified.
"Do you dare to go, aren't you afraid of death!" said one of them, in surprise.
"I'm going to die if I stay here!
The three of Leng Bingxin were already close to them, and what they said was in their ears.
Hearing the word "monster", Su Tianyuan frowned, originally his task was to inspect the movements of Jiuchi Yuan, but he didn't expect to find no trace in the trace of Jiuchi, but it appeared in this Qingtan City.
What a mistake!
