Chapter 290: Return to the Old Place
Returning to the Sword Peak from the Floating Jade Mountain, Di Zhong sullenly put himself on his shoulder as a ball of light, and he didn't say a word until Xiao Qianye returned to the room with his sword technique.
The sky gradually turned dark, and the temperature at the top of Kunlun at night dropped suddenly, Xiao Qianye took the quilt on the square back into the room, thinking that this was specially prepared by Yun Xiao for himself, his heart suddenly warmed, and he couldn't help but smile slightly, Di Zhong was already in an unhappy mood, this would catch a glimpse of the happiness on his face, and he was even more irritable and depressed, he coughed hard in the ball of light, and the atmosphere suddenly became embarrassing.
However, after this inexplicable cough, Di Zhong was silent without saying a word, Xiao Qianye didn't know how to talk to him, the two stared at each other for a while, Xiao Qianye took the lead in looking away, not wanting to play a guessing game with him anymore, he held the quilt and laid it out seriously, and was ready to go to bed when he saw it, Di Zhong frowned, and finally couldn't help but reappear with the magic of divine splitting, lifted the futon, and reprimanded in a low voice: "Are you ready to sleep?"
Xiao Qianye only felt that this person was extremely strange today, and he didn't know what he was losing his temper about, so he grabbed the quilt and covered his body, muttering, "Otherwise?"
"Get up. Emperor Zhong unceremoniously dragged him out, and threw him out of the door, without waiting for Xiao Qianye to break free of his hand, the two of them had already come to the square in front of the disciple's room of the Sword Peak, the wind passed through the mountain, the night at the top of Kunlun was not dark, and the big stars dotted in the sky would be extraordinarily bright here, Xiao Qianye stared at him, suddenly remembered what happened before, frowned, and took the initiative to ask: "Why are you angry?"
"Huh?" Di Zhong was silent, and he was also thinking about his question seriously, and after half a sound, he couldn't hide the disappointed look on his face, and replied: "I also taught you the mental martial arts of the Heavenly Realm, why don't you respect me as much as you do for the master?"
Xiao Qianye was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect the other party to be struggling with this issue, but Di Zhong suddenly raised his voice, looking really dissatisfied with what he had done, and continued: "Only mortals have ever bowed down to the Heavenly Realm, and there is no such thing as the Heavenly Realm bowing to mortals! ”
"I'm not part of you. Xiao Qianye answered without hesitation, in fact, he had already sensed the unhappiness in Di Zhong's eyes in Fuyu Mountain just now, but it was still a little unexpected to really say it from his mouth in person, Xiao Qianye looked at Di Zhong firmly, his face was full of resoluteness, and repeated it again seriously, "I am not a part of you, I am grateful for what you taught me, but the word 'master' is not something that can be easily admitted after teaching martial arts." ”
Di Zhong frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about something, the expression on his face changed violently, he had not accepted an apprentice, even the fierce beast that had walked side by side with him for three thousand years, he had not taught it a single move.
If, if he could have taught it something a little at that time, wouldn't it have been seriously injured by Gu Chen for meddling in his own battle?
After a long time, Di Zhong gradually opened his eyes, a trace of helplessness appeared on his face, and he shook his head lightly: "Xiao Qianye, am I not qualified to be your master?"
"It's not ......" Xiao Qianye blurted out without thinking, not knowing what the person in front of him wanted to say, but he just caught a glimpse of the slight loss in the other party's expression, and instinctively forced him to deny it directly, "If it weren't for you, I would have died at the hands of the Night King in the first battle of Biluohai, and if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to turn the tide and save the crown prince when the imperial capital was shocked, I have always been grateful to you, although ...... Although I am also repulsed by you. ”
Di Zhong's heart was shocked, and thousands of thoughts turned in his heart, Xiao Qianye saw that his expression was in a trance, and suddenly the light in his eyes flashed, and he smiled faintly and continued: "I also want to know, in your heart, what kind of existence am I?"
Di Zhong's face was already gloomy, and when he heard this, his expression was even colder, and he fell silent for a while.
This person is undoubtedly a very special existence for himself, and he is willing to teach him those things, and he doesn't really want to accept an apprentice, it's just that he can't easily die in the hands of fellow practitioners in the Heavenly Realm, that's all.
"If you're just angry about this, you'll be angry later. Xiao Qianye interrupted his thoughts coldly, Di Zhong suddenly came back to his senses, his eyes wandered in the gold and silver eyes, and he looked at Xiao Qianye repeatedly, in fact, he knew that people have all kinds of complex emotions, whether it is a master and apprentice, a monarch or a minister, or even when worshipping ancestors, kneeling and bowing is just a common etiquette, and he doesn't need to worry about this matter at all.
Is it really just because he has coexisted for a long time that he can't tell who is who? After all, with his personality, it is impossible for him to give such a heavy salute to a human old man.
Di Zhong shook his head, frowning on the side, obviously without a body and no soul, but he felt his brain twitch and hurt for a while, and finally he could only laugh at himself, it turned out that although he repeatedly reminded himself that the heavenly realm was not a true god, he would still inadvertently put himself in that high position, so that Xiao Qianye, who coexisted, saluted the teacher, which made him feel inexplicably dissatisfied in his heart.
The corners of Xiao Qianye's mouth moved, and for some reason she also smiled subconsciously, and the two exchanged expressions in an instant, and finally covered up this matter quietly.
Seeing that his face was finally slowly gentle, and his eyes were no longer sharp, Xiao Qianye was actually secretly relieved in his heart, he tightened his thin clothes, pointed to the door and complained: "Can you let me in and rest now?" Although I don't feel tired, my body should be about to be unable to hold on. ”
Di Zhong waved his hand and told him to hurry in, but he floated in the other direction instead.
"Hey, where are you going?" Xiao Qianye was just about to enter the room, and when he saw his inexplicable actions, he couldn't help but follow, Di Zhong made a boo gesture at him mysteriously, his steps were very fast, but after a while, he came to a steep cliff by the moonlight, staring at the sea of clouds below.
It took a few minutes for Xiao Qianye to follow him closely, and he chuckled in his heart at this glance, this is the place where he stumbled and fell off the cliff back then!
"It's so high......" Di Zhong looked at the cliff, couldn't help but sigh, he glanced to the side, and sure enough, he saw Xiao Qianye standing on the edge of the cliff in a trance, clenching his teeth and clenching his fists with both hands, the next moment, Xiao Qianye seemed to notice Di Zhong's bright gaze, and couldn't help but turn his eyes to look over, and the moment the two looked at each other, they actually had an inexplicable impulse at the same time.
The corners of Di Zhong's mouth hooked up a dangerous smile, the speed of his shot was obviously faster than Xiao Qianye, he grabbed his sleeve with one hand, and his body had already taken a step forward!
Xiao Qianye remained motionless, allowing this person to grab his foot and fall into the bottomless cliff.
The memory of that year was in a trance, he only remembered that he was shaken by the golden light of Kunlun Yunding at dusk, and after a period of chest tightness and panting, a large blurred black shadow began to appear in front of him, and the tinnitus became more and more serious, and he trembled towards the light, as if there was some fatal attraction there.
That strange dream finally became clear little by little at this moment, his hand turned into a white claw, with sharp nails, and his body was that of a young beast, abandoned by his companions on the island because he was born with a disability.
In a trance, a gentle hand wiped his head, and when he looked up again, he saw a tall man sitting by the water with a smile, he carried a black gold ancient knife, picked up the stream and wiped it on the face of the beast, and raised his hand to flick it on his head.
He has a pair of gold and silver eyes, and there are two spells of ice and fire under his eyes, exuding a suffocating and powerful aura.
Now, the man in the dream ...... It really appeared in front of my eyes.
It was like a world away, but this time there was no Kunlun's perched bird to rescue him, and Yun Xiao didn't jump down with him again, and the man standing next to him was the man in his dream.
Xiao Qianye looked at Di Zhong in a daze, and couldn't tell whether he was in a dream or reality for a while, Di Zhong also glanced at him with interest, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and he inadvertently swept the white sword spirit on his waist, but his face slowly dimmed.
Obviously, you can perceive everything through the soul splitting Dafa on the sword spirit, but unless you have to, the soul in the sword will not be easily disturbed.
The woman he was thinking of was now quietly guarding another person.
They landed on a steep mountain wall, not the windless valley of the year, the head was a rich sea of clouds, and the feet were still dark, Di Zhong raised his head and raised a finger to point, and said with a smile: "When you fell off the cliff, you were already in a coma, and you didn't feel scared at all when you fell from such a high place, but she was awake, a girl of that age, where did she get the courage to jump down with you?"
Xiao Qianye's heart was touched, and a nameless guilt arose, in fact, not long after falling off the cliff, the Tianzheng Mansion's extermination case came from Feiyuan, forcing him to no longer have time to take care of Kunlun's cultivation, and immediately returned home, and then this matter was lost in his memory, although every time he remembered that his heart was still surging, Feiyuan's situation did not allow him to show anything, and he never mentioned it to anyone again.
The girl who jumped down with him was also buried in the deepest part of her heart, and no one knew.
Di Zhong looked at the complicated emotional changes on his face, but he was slightly annoyed in his heart, and suddenly reached out and touched the other party's neck, and sighed silently: "You know, I almost killed her." ”
When Xiao Qianye heard this, he raised his eyelids in astonishment, Di Zhong's fingers were faintly cold, making his neck feel a slight tingling, Di Zhong looked at him seriously, and told him the old things of the year word by word: "After you fell off the cliff, you showed the posture of the ancient beast for the first time, and you couldn't control yourself at all, you almost bit off her neck in one bite, but fortunately, the fire in her body stimulated me and woke me up." ”
Di Zhong's words were fluttering, but they made Xiao Qianye's heart feel like a thousand pounds, and he even felt a sharp pain in his neck.
"At that time, I was awake, and I couldn't tell who you were, who she was, where you were now, and what you were doing, but I saw a dying woman lying under me, and instinctively helped her stop the bleeding from the wound. Di Zhong continued to speak slowly, and also recalled the scene a little bit, and couldn't help but have an extremely gentle smile on his face, and said, "I found that she recovered quickly, not at a speed that humans can do, and then she woke up, and the first thing she woke up was not to care about the injury on her neck, but to rush to your side, first form a sword formation to keep warm, and then have been trying to wake you up." ”
Di Zhong paused slightly, and then what happened next made him feel surprised, and he couldn't help but raise his tone slightly: "She found that her blood was dripping on you, which would restore the appearance of your ancient species to normal, and then she did an unbelievable thing, she used her sword spirit to self-harm on her body to take blood, and even changed her least commonly used sword formation, the Red Lotus Sword Domain, in order not to let the blood dry up." ”
Xiao Qianye hung his head, he already knew these things later, the only thing he didn't know was that he almost killed Yun Xiao when he was out of control!
It turned out that it was Di Zhong who saved Yun Xiao first, and Yun Xiao saved himself again.
"Hey...... Then I found out that I couldn't break free from your body. Di Zhong's face couldn't help but show a look of regret, as if he exuded a helplessness from his heart, "Although I woke up at that time, many things are still in a very ignorant state, so that I had to hide my breath first to prevent you from noticing, but I didn't expect that after this, you returned to Feiyuan due to changes, losing the stimulation of the fire, my state not only did not improve, but got worse and worse, and my consciousness may dissipate again at any time, fortunately...... Fortunately, she has found it again, and she is really my destined savior. ”
Xiao Qianye opened his mouth, instinctively making him want to say something to refute, but he couldn't say a word.
Di Zhong took a step back, stood there silently, his eyes flashed, and said lightly: "I know that the only person in her heart now is you, but ...... Don't give me any chance, or I'll take her away. ”
Xiao Qianye was silent, but after Di Zhong said this, he rubbed his head with a smile and indulgence, and his tone was slowly gentle: "Okay, I'll send you back to rest." ”
"What about you?" Xiao Qianye glanced at him hesitantly, the other party had already turned around and continued to look at the bottom of the cliff, and muttered, "I? Although I look like this, I still come and go freely, the insect mark mentioned by the head of the sect today, I always feel like some strange sacrificial technique, but I have always been not very good at these, maybe it would be better to tell my friends about this." ”
"Are you going to the Valley of Silence?" Xiao Qianye immediately stood up and said hesitantly, "I'll go too." ”
"Hmph, do you want to go? Just think about it, I don't want to take you, trouble. Di Zhong refused, still with a gentle smile on his face, naturally knowing that his real purpose was just to see Yun Xiao, and persuaded softly and slowly: "I can't leave you for a long time, I will come back before dawn, you have to go back to sleep, otherwise your body will not be able to bear it." ”
"I ......" Xiao Qianye still wanted to argue, but Di Zhong put a hand on his shoulder, and the actinization technique actually took him into the air and took him off into the clouds in an instant.
Xiao Qianye watched Di Zhong's figure getting smaller and smaller from a distance, and seemed to be waving goodbye to him, really angry and helpless.
