Chapter 22: Re-entry into the Red Dust
I'm in awe.
The white mist cleared, the sound of cicadas continued, and the leaves rustled softly in the breeze. The smooth white stone wall in front of him was unscathed.
I turned around in amazement, looked at Ling Yichen, and couldn't care about being polite, and asked bluntly, "What was it just now?!Is it true or false?"
Ling Yichen was indifferent, and said indifferently: "True is false, false is true, life is like a dream, why be serious?"
I took a deep breath, still trembling with anger, and tried to calm down: "Your Majesty! If you really call 'rule by doing nothing,' why do you want to show me?"
I regretted it almost immediately, but Ling Yichen didn't care at all: "Why should I care? ”
"Why don't you make a move, show me what's the use!" I couldn't help but exclaim at the thought of how light was rampant in Kyoto.
Ling Yichen said lightly: "I don't interfere in the affairs of everything, so naturally I won't make a move." Because you care, if I don't show you, you'll be shrunk by Feng Jianqing's side forever, hiding here to escape everything outside, aren't you?"
I stammered, my face flushed, and I didn't dare to look at him.
Indeed, even if I am ready to go to the outside world, I will want to be with him, so he, will he want to be with me······
I quickly collected my thoughts, bowed my head and said, "The little woman is reckless and rude, she has offended Your Majesty, I hope Your Majesty will forgive me." ”
Ling Yichen didn't mind, and smiled faintly: "It's okay." Let's go. ”
I looked up and asked, "Where are you going?" To slay the dragon?"
Ling Yichen smiled, smiling very softly and tiredly: "I, don't the dragon clan have the right to live? I will not intervene in the contradiction between man and dragon." ”
"That ······"
He looked at me and said slowly: "For the sacrifices offered to me, I will personally take them to the altar, and then when it is time to pray for rain, you can choose, no one will force you." ”
I was amazed: "Wh... What ?I?choose?I can choose ???"
Ling Yichen approached me and looked me in the eye: "Of course you can choose, it's just ······"
I took a breath and my heartbeat missed half a beat, he smiled faintly, took a half step back, kept a normal distance and said, "Please." ”
He leaned slightly to the side and pointed to the stone wall in a "please" gesture.
The stone wall is as white as jade, but there is nothing special about it, not to mention that my palm is still faintly painful. I hesitated to touch the stone wall with my hand: "Is there any hole I haven't seen from here?" The stone wall is so smooth, not to mention the moonlight, which can be seen at a glance.
Ling Yichen smiled: "Of course not, the Demon Abyss, the Demon Abyss, the Demon is born from the heart, you can go out by ignoring this stone wall in your heart." ”
???Is this too, banging my head against the wall? I closed my eyes and thought silently in my heart, there is no wall, there is no wall, there is no wall, the touch in my hand tells me that there is a wall, and I am depressed and says, "No." ”
Ling Yichen said patiently: "Don't worry. ”
After trying for a long time, I had a whim, took two steps back, closed my eyes, reached in front of me, and slowly moved forward, this time I forgot where it was, and I could get out before I knew it, right?
My fingertips touched the hard stone wall again, I sighed heavily, opened my eyes, and there was always a faint smile on the corner of Ling Yichen's mouth, gentle and indifferent, without saying a word. A carrier pigeon cooed a few times in the sky and disappeared into the darkness.
I was even more discouraged, and the more frustrated I felt, why did he have to watch me look foreign.
I just stretched out my hand, because I thought there was a wall, otherwise anyone who usually walks and stretches out his hand to grope in front, if it is just not stretched, most of them will hit the wall with their heads······ Why didn't Feng Jianqing ever tell me how to give birth?Could it be, does he want to keep me here?······ I panicked slightly······ Hmph, I'm, he can get out, I can go out.
I closed my eyes again, exhaled deeply a few times, and the spiritual platform was clear, and suddenly I was aware of my supernatural powers, and I didn't stretch out my hand, but walked forward directly.
Nothing, I opened my eyes, and it was pitch black all around, a small opening in the distance, as if there was light, the air was humid, and the sound of water was loud.
Is this a cave?
Ling Yichen silently walked through the stone wall and stood beside me. I groped my way to the entrance of the cave. Outside the cave, the hot and humid summer wind blows in the face, and the torrential rain is like a note, and the raindrops crackle on the rocks. The thunder was faint, and a small stream meandered into the peach grove not far away, and the water rose sharply due to the torrential rain, overflowing the riverbank. The peach blossoms have gone, and they are red and messy, and they have been knocked to the ground by the torrential rain, and the petals are half buried in the wet mud.
"What is this?"
Ling Yichen said: "The place name is Wuling, there is no name here in the wilderness, let's go." ”
He grabbed me by the waist and soared into the air. I froze slightly. Ling Yichen flew very steadily, not affected by the wind and rain at all. He didn't even get a little rain on the corners of his robe, but I had to carry the exercises, and the raindrops fell around me, condensed into Xiaoice beads and rolled down from my clothes, so as to avoid the misfortune of falling into the soup chicken.
We sped away in the darkness of the night.
