The 476th Cycle of Tribulation
That night, she and Ziling first poured wine one by one, then poured wine one by one, and finally poured wine from one jar to another, until they poured themselves unconscious, as if they were carried back by Ziling, and they were half-asleep and half-awake all night, with nightmares and nightmares, until they fell asleep groggily when they were ugly.
When she woke up, it was already dark, and a few birds landed under her window and sang, and when Luo Kui got up in a hurry, she heard a very light knock on the door from Kawagu: "Senior sister, junior sister, are you uncomfortable somewhere." ”
Luo Kui cut her hair and clothes, and then leaned against the door, blushing and whispering, "No, it's not uncomfortable." Senior brother, you, why did you come back, did Master also come back? "She smells so strong that you can smell it even after a whole night.
Kawatani frowned and said, "Well, they're all back, how much wine have you drunk, and the master asked you to come over, but be careful." As he spoke, he took out two pills from his sleeve and handed them to Luo Kui: "Sobering medicine, you take it first, no matter what the master says for a while, you just listen, everything has a senior brother." ”
Not only missed the morning class, but also brought a body of alcohol, Yujing Mountain has always been strict in rules, and Yujing Tianzun is notoriously serious and ruthless, which station to go, it is particularly terrifying.
As soon as Luo Kui met his eyes that were as cold as pearls, his heart tightened, he lowered his head in a panic, lowered his eyes to look at the blue brick ground in front of him, and didn't even dare to gasp for more than the atmosphere, for a while the hall was silent, Chuan Gu cautiously glanced at Yujing Tianzun, and said: "Master, my sister has just started, and it is a first offense, Master." ”
Before he finished speaking, Yujing Tianzun glanced at him, his face turned pale with fright, and he was silent, and Yujing Tianzun slowly spoke: "Luokui, where did you get this wine." ”
Luo Kui gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "Yes, it was secretly brought in when he was apprenticed." ”
Yujing Tianzun glanced at Ziling with a smile, and said idly: "If you want to say that your senior brothers and sisters are really the same heart, girl," he glanced at her with a smile, and said slowly: "If you want to drink next time, you don't have to go all the way to the mortal town to buy it, there are a lot of buried on the edge of the jade platform in the back mountain, and you will dig it yourself when you want to drink, but there is only one case, and you are not allowed to drink too much and miss the morning class." ”
"Ah," Luo Kui was stunned, raised his head and looked at Yujing Tianzun, his face was dazed, he rubbed his hands and didn't know how to reply, and he snorted for a while, before he was surprised and suspicious: "Master is telling the truth?" ”
Yujing Tianzun glanced at Ziling, and his face was slightly gloomy: "I can't help you dig, is it possible that Ziling will take you to the mortal world to cause trouble." ”
Ziling crossed her hands, picked out her ten fingers one by one, and when she heard Yujing Tianzun's words, she bit her lower lip and smiled, and asked with a shy face: "Master, can I also drink a little bit of that wine." He pinched his fingers and compared them in front of his eyes: "Just taste a little." ”
The smile at Yujing Tianzun's eyebrows was extremely faint, and he snorted coldly noncommittally, looked at Gan Sui and said lightly: "I heard that Xiqiang broke an arm, you did it." ”
Gan Sui pursed his thin lips, and before he could speak, Yujing Tianzun's voice sounded again: "The three disciples under my seat made a move, but they only injured one of his arms, which is really embarrassing." The four of them were slightly stunned, and before they came back to their senses, he glanced at the four of them with his eyes, and said lightly: "Listen to a few of you, if he comes to Yujing Mountain again next time, if he still only hurts one arm, you don't have to come to see me again." ”
The four of them were dumbfounded, they wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, so they could only endure it reluctantly, and only listened to him continue in a deep voice: "Kongqing is the latest to enter, but he is the first to cultivate to become a Divine Monarch, and a few of you should be more vigilant. The four of them said these words in their hearts, and hurriedly lowered their heads and said yes, Ziling lowered her eyes, secretly glanced at Luo Kui, and smiled at her.
Since that day, the four of Luokui have never left Yujing Mountain for half a step, except for going to the banquet with Yujing Tianzun 20,000 years later, and not being able to go out is not the most difficult, and the wine buried under the jade platform was drunk by several people in less than 10,000 years.
"You dig deeper, you dig deeper, you eat so much all day, where do you eat, this idea is really wasted so much food. Ziling stood on the edge of the jade platform, crossed her waist, and kept chattering and shouting with cynicism.
And Gan Sui leaned on the hoe, stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat beads on his forehead, glanced at him, and took a sip: "This soil has been frozen for millions of years, you have the ability to try it." ”
Ziling wrinkled the tip of her nose and said mockingly: "Your immortal art is practiced in vain, you won't use fire to burn it and dig it again." ”
"Come on, come on, you come and try to burn one. Gan Sui handed over the hoe and choked him: "You are not allowed to move the fairy fire on Yujing Mountain, you don't know." ”
"I know, that's why you burned it. Suzi didn't pick up the hoe he handed over, only grinned.
Gan Suiden choked up, glared at him angrily, waved the hoe again, dug it up hard, the beads of sweat fell to the ground one by one, and were frozen in an instant.
With a light sound, Luo Kui placed four plates of dim sum on the jade platform, twisted a piece and stuffed it into Gan Sui's mouth, and said with a smile: "Look at how hard you have dug up, I will send you some dim sum." ”
Su Zi smiled and clapped his hands: "It's still you girl who knows that it hurts, I'll taste it." He snorted at Gan Sui and said with a smile: "You hurry up and dig it, you need to use it at night." ”
Gan Sui wiped the beads of sweat, and after digging hard, he carefully took out a white and greasy wine jar with a cold air in the soil, and smiled happily.
"Why is it just one altar, something else. Ziling frowned and asked.
"No, it's just this altar. Gan Sui stretched out his hand to dig deep in the soil, dug out a hand of mud, and rubbed his hand on Ziling, who was surprised.
"Gansui, what are you doing, I'm in new clothes. Ziling snorted dryly, patted the corners of her clothes in a hurry, and said worriedly: "It won't be just this altar, the master said that tens of thousands of jars of wine can be buried under this, and it has only been less than 10,000 years, why did you drink it." He raised his eyes to look at Gan Sui, his eyes flashed, and he wondered, "Should you be stealing it?" ”
Gan Sui snorted coldly and said angrily: "You are the best at doing sneaky things, and I said that you drank it secretly." ”
Luo Kui laughed: "You two are just going to fight in the nest." She counted with her fingers: "You calculate, in the past 10,000 years, we have to drink every New Year's holiday, we have to drink on our birthday, and we have to drink for cultivation, even Senior Brother Ziling was abandoned by a good person, and we have to drink without getting drunk and not returning, not to mention tens of thousands of jars of wine, even hundreds of thousands of jars of wine, and we can't afford to drink a few times." ”
"Jing Hu said, how can I be abandoned by someone with such a good skin. Ziling chirped: "Today's senior brother's birthday, just this jar of wine, it's a little shabby, and it's not enough for a few of us to drink." ”
"I'm a senior brother, and it's my birthday, so naturally I drink more. Kawaya didn't know how long he had been eavesdropping, and he walked out and laughed loudly.
Ziling pursed her lips and said mockingly: "You also know that it's your birthday, don't invite us to eat and drink, forget it, and you are ashamed to rob us of wine, I really don't know if you are stingy or greedy, the senior brother does not look like a senior brother." ”
"You," Kawaya was dumbfounded for a moment, unable to cry or laugh.
Gan Sui cleaned his hands and said with an urn: "Senior Brother Ziling, I dug up this wine, you can't grab the wine with me to drink, it will be too shameless and skinless." ”
Ziling wrinkled the tip of her nose and snorted coldly: "Okay, I won't grab wine from you, let you open up and pour, you just pour two glasses." He looked back, only to see Luo Kui twisting the tassels around his waist, a little distracted, and then smiled: "Girl, you are a girl's family, drinking so much wine is immoral, don't drink it." ”
Luo Kui came back to his senses, pursed his lips angrily and funny, and lifted the wine jar from the ground to get used to it, but was caught by Ziling steadily, opened the mouth of the altar and sniffed it gently, and the wine was full of aroma when he landed, which was intoxicating.
After a flash of 10,000 years, the original empty court, planted a number of flowers and plants of the four seasons, that is Yujing Tianzun once went to the heavenly palace, from the Baiwei Emperor's hundred flowers to bring back the seedlings, Luo Kui cherished, all planted, carefully maintained, from that day on, she leaned under the window, sighed begonia picked in the spring, such as the dawn of the sky and the sun, and the morning sun; watch the summer lotus tactfully, secretly send the fragrance; bounty cinnamon welcomes autumn, the fragrant wind gusts, in the winter with a few snowfalls, the flowers are not in the early stage, but the red plum blossoms are extremely prosperous, like rouge dots, spread out in the snow。
In the spring, the begonia flowers in front of the court are extremely lively, the dark red and light pink in front of the court pull out a piece of magnificent clouds, bursts of sweet fragrance in the air, the breeze blows, through the window. In the past 30,000 years of worshipping under the Yujing Tianzun Sect, Luo Kui finally touched the bottleneck of cultivating into a Divine Monarch, but she lingered on this hurdle for hundreds of years, and finally failed to break through.
A large area of red light filled every corner of the room, and a faint slight popping sound came out, Luo Kui sat on the futon, shrouded in a floating red mist, and the whole person was distorted into a strange posture, and the bright red of the Vermilion Bird on her forehead became more and more demonic, and strings of blood droplets came out of her eyes.
In the lunch room on this day, as soon as the food was served on the table, Gan Sui hurriedly broke into the Tianshu Palace, and after cutting a few words with Emperor Su Ye, the two of them took the Divine Soul Lamp to Yujing Mountain, and then, Luo Kui moved into the Xuanbing Cave of Yujing Mountain to retreat, and the ban on Yujing Mountain was fully opened, and dozens of guards were borrowed from the Tianshu Palace, and the guards were more strict than usual, and the three disciples under the Yujing Tianzun no longer had the playful appearance on weekdays, they all added twelve points of caution and patrolled the mountain pass day and night, and then a few words spread in the Heavenly Palace, saying that it was the Vermilion Bird Emperor Ji Luo Kui who forcibly broke through the bottleneck of the Divine Monarch and failed, resulting in serious injuries to the soul and almost scattered his soulWhen Yin Chen cried and went to find Emperor Su Ye, Emperor Su Ye just stroked her head and told her with a smile that Luo Kui had hurt her soul, but Fu Da's life was great, and she would be fine if she slept for a few years.
Five years later, Luo Kui came out of the customs safely, although he was still trapped in the bottleneck of the Divine Monarch, but the red light in the divine soul was great, and the cultivation was faintly on another level, and it was not far from the breakthrough.
Five hundred years have passed, Guangdan five hundred years ago planted in the hundred flowers in the begonia flower flower grows very well, the flowers between the branches are dense turns, delicate and lovely, he has nothing to do all day and leans under the tree, put on two sake, drink one by himself, sprinkle a light under the tree, from time to time and muttered a few words with the wind, caressing the trunk and sighing.
Emperor Bai Wei stood not far away, and said slowly: "Ziyuan is very well raised, and it will be able to get out of trouble in a few years." ”
Guang Dan gave a deep salute and said with a smile: "Ziyuan can get better so quickly, thanks to my aunt's perfection and Emperor Su Ye's elixir." ”
Emperor Bai Wei shook his head and sighed: "The temperament of your brothers is really with your father, and they can't read the love words, you are trapped in me for five hundred years, and since the girl is gone, the sixth child has been locked up in Yuqing Palace for five hundred years, your father has a hard life, how can you give birth to a few of you." ”
Guangdan stroked the begonia tree and said with a smile: "Back then, my father dropped out of the dynasty for a hundred years due to the death of Zelan's biological mother, and now I and the sixth child have been trapped in love for hundreds of years. He saw that Emperor Bai Wei was about to beat him, so he immediately fled away, and said: "Aunt Lao has taken care of Ziyuan, I'll go and see the sixth child, without his help, I won't be able to survive the next catastrophe." ”
Yuqing Palace was originally the most serious in the palace of the princes, in addition to the candlesticks, tables and chairs and other necessary furnishings, the rest is stacked layer by layer, almost stacked to the beams of the scrolls, and there is no extra decoration on the side, Shang Zhi once said that into this Yuqing Palace, he didn't even dare to breathe, for fear that the panting would be big, blow down those scrolls, and then smash himself.
And at this moment, in the Yuqing Palace, there is nowhere to put his feet in a messy mess, and no one dares to come in to clean up, only to see the paper thrown all over the ground, the white flowers are like a pile of snow, and the many portraits hanging on the four walls are all painted with the same girl's smile.
Guangdan cautiously avoided the mille-feuille snow and walked to the table, couldn't help but let out a long sigh, slowly pulled out the pen in Kongqing's hand, and smiled without smiling: "Sixth, your painting can grow a lot, almost compared with the fourth, the fourth's wish in his life is to paint the beautiful scenery of the Three Realms, don't you have to spend your life painting only one person." ”
Kong Qing's eyes were red and bloodshot, and his cheeks were sunken thin, he raised his eyes to look at Guangdan's equally thin face, and said in a dumb voice: "Second brother, you still have a begonia to think about, keep it all the time, but I have nothing, I'm afraid that if I don't paint, I will forget her appearance." ”
Guangdan's eyes dimmed, and he sighed slowly: "Yes, I shouldn't blame you for pushing myself and others." ”
Kong Qing held a ball of paper in his hand, and the tighter he clenched it, until fine and dense sweat oozed from his palm, soaking through the paper ball, and then he muttered: "If she can have an afterlife, I can still hope for it." He raised his eyes to look at Guangdan: "But she didn't leave anything, as if she had never appeared, as if all this was just a dream I had." ”
The wind swept through the window lattice, rolling up the portrait on the ground and squirming to the corner, only the sound of the wind remained in the hall for a while, the sound of breathing and the crackling sound of lamps and candles, for a long time, Guangdan bit his lower lip and considered: "Actually, I shouldn't have said this at this time, but now only you can help the second brother." He paused: "I'm afraid Ziyuan is about to wake up, probably in the past few years, you can no longer be locked up in the Yuqing Palace to paint with peace of mind, you have to follow me to Baihuaao to guard and help the second brother." ”
"Good. Kong Qing tried his best to make a smile, but his eyes became darker and darker: "The second brother can be regarded as getting what he wants." ”
"It's what I want, but it's not necessarily hers," Guangdan's fingertips circled back and forth on the lamp and candle, the wick swayed, licking his hand, he smiled, he couldn't tell whether it was bitter or sweet in his smile, he himself clearly remembered, when she left, he told himself that he must let her go to reincarnation, don't miss her, don't delay her to chase the person who left first. Guangdan smiled at the corner of his lips, and there was endless loneliness: "She died to save me, but she will definitely resent me when she wakes up, and resents me for completely cutting off her and that person's next life, but I would rather her resent me than that she will forget me." ”
Kong Qing stared at the girl in the portrait in a daze, and was silent for a while, she had never even had such an opportunity, not even a chance to make her forget herself.
Guangdan patted him on the shoulder and sighed: "Mortals say that it is good to be an immortal, but in fact, they have their own suffering, mortals suffer from birth, old age, sickness and death, for fear of not enjoying their lives, and immortals are suffering from ruthless abstinence, for fear of encountering love and moving the immortal roots, and finally ending up in ashes. ”
Kong Qing sighed slightly: "It was because of this that you insisted on going through the Nether Tribulation back then." ”
"Yes, fortunately I met her, and there is no white calendar in this mortal calamity. Guangdan raised his eyes and looked at him: "Speaking of which, you can be regarded as having experienced a catastrophe." ”
Kong Qing sneered, and the bitterness overflowed in the smile: "The two of us have suffered from the calamities, and the Emperor Su Ye has been meeting every day for five hundred years, and he has complained a lot." ”
"Isn't it, last time, the emperor still cried bitterly, and took a lot of nectar from Aunt Bai Wei, saying that he was going back to suppress the bitter taste. Guangdan said with a smile.
His eyes fell on the portraits around him, and he immediately picked up a piece of paper on the table and looked at it carefully, the eyebrows and eyes and the face were inexplicably familiar, and a trace of white light crossed his heart, and he blurted out: "This girl, this girl I seem to have seen somewhere." ”
Kong Qingyi grabbed Guangdan's shoulder, and said in a trembling voice: "Second brother, where have you seen it, I went to Si Ming, and he said that she has been wiped out and has completely broken the path of reincarnation." ”
