Chapter 242: Life and Death Meet
There's a good saying about how many friends you have, not how many people surround you when you're booming, but how many people are around you when you have nothing. What's more, it is a bloody and bloody rivers and lakes, and there are a few people who are willing to stand by your side when you are most difficult, and even laugh with you to watch the ups and downs, and face the different paths of life and death.
There are some people who are destined to spend their lives cherishing, including the dead Shangguan Yunjie, and Nangong Chu, who was sitting across the stone table at this time, replacing wine with tea, and talking about "wine".
Fengyun Castle, in the pavilion in the courtyard, are sitting two people, one dressed in black, carrying a rusty knife, the other with long hair fluttering, and holding a folding fan. It was Wuxin and Nangong Chu who got together again.
At this time, Nangong Chu has long lost the seemingly romantic grace of the past, nor the fearless smile that always hangs on the corner of his mouth, but has become a lot thinner, and he is also much more mature and stable. All these changes are completely caused by the fact that Ruyi was tied up last time, and he was seriously injured and almost died in an accident. People who have died once seem to always live another self.
Looking at Nangong Chu in front of him, he always felt a little sorry in his heart, feeling that all this had something to do with him, if he hadn't told Nangong Chu to keep Ruyi safe no matter what, maybe Nangong Chu wouldn't have become what he is now, he didn't know whether this was good or bad for Nangong Chu, although he also knew that even if he didn't have his own advice, Nangong Chu would swear to protect Ruyi.
"You don't have to feel as if you owe me anything, everything I do is my willingness, if I don't want to, even if you don't want to, you can't force me to do anything I don't want to do. Nangong Chu lowered his head and refilled the teacup for Wuxin and himself, and said lightly.
Since he was injured, he seems to have liked drinking tea like Wuxin, because he feels that drinking tea can calm him down and stop suffering from gains and losses. It's just that although the cup has become tea, he still looks like he is drinking, and he has always just drunk it all.
Wuxin smiled, nodded, but shook his head again, he felt that he owed Nangong Chu once, not a debt, not a favor, but a fearless and unflinching sacrifice of his life to accompany him.
"I don't owe you anything, but I can't afford not to pay it. Unintentionally picked up the teacup that Nangong Chu had poured for himself, raised his head and drank it all.
Nangong Chu listened to Wuxin's words and smiled bitterly, and did not argue again, although he didn't understand what Wuxin said, but he knew the meaning of Wuxin's words. He also picked up the teacup in front of him, raised his head and drank it all.
Two people who are obviously just drinking tea non-stop, but they have to drink and talk happily, and they don't get drunk and don't return, maybe only these two men will form such a picture.
Ruyi and Lin Xuan stood in a corridor from afar, looking at Wuxin and Nangong, who didn't know how many pots of tea they had drunk in the pavilion not far away, with a trace of worry on their faces. It's not real wine, it's just ordinary tea, but if you drink it like this, even tea will spoil you.
After thinking about it again, Ruyi made up her mind to stop the two who were drinking. But as soon as he took two steps, he was stopped by a voice.
"Let them go, don't worry. An old, slightly deep voice rang out from the side.
With the words, Ruyi and Lin Xuan couldn't help but turn their heads to look, and found that the owner of Fengyun Castle, Shangguan Fengyun, no longer knew when he was standing at the other end of the corridor, and he was also quietly looking at the two people who were talking about "wine" not far away.
Seeing Shangguan Fengyun, Ruyi and Lin Xuan bowed down to Shangguan Fengyun at the same time, and said respectfully at the same time: "Lord Shangguan Castle." ”
Shangguan Fengyun nodded, counting it as a response, but his gaze still stayed in the gazebo not far away. I saw him say slowly: "He deserves such a friend, what he has done, even my old bones want to have a real non-drunk and no return with him." ”
The "he" in Shangguan Fengyun's mouth of course refers to Wuxin, the friend his son cared about the most during his lifetime. Although he has gradually faded out of the rivers and lakes since Shangguan Yunjie's death and no longer fights with others, he still knows a little about the things on the rivers and lakes.
The confrontation between Wuxin and Red Feather has long been no secret, and the really unexpected thing is that this young man really single-handedly stirred up and down Red Feather. And he has heard the rumors on the rivers and lakes recently, that is, about unintentionally calling on the world's martial arts to join forces to fight against the rebellion of the imperial court, he is thinking that if his son is still alive, he will definitely follow the young man in front of him and do something vigorous.
Thinking of this, Shangguan Fengyun couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, as if he remembered his late son, there was a trace of helplessness and sadness between his eyebrows, he turned around and walked to the other end of the corridor, and said lightly as he walked: "He is worthy of all the red faces in the world, the girl should cherish it, don't miss it." ”
As he spoke, he had gradually disappeared at the end of the corridor, leaving behind an old, lonely back. At this time, Shangguan Fengyun has long lost the demeanor of the year, no matter how you look at it, he only looks like a twilight and lonely old man, and all this is only because he has lost a son who is enough to make him smile Jiuquan.
Looking at Shangguan Fengyun who was gradually leaving, Ruyi turned his head to look at Wuxin, who was sitting in the pavilion not far away, pursed his lips, and said to himself: "Is he so good?" Although he said this, in fact, his heart was already happy, and there was nothing happier than others taking the initiative to praise the person he cared about the most.
"Isn't Brother Wuxin bad?" At this time, Lin Xuan, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but ask, looking at Ruyi in front of him suspiciously, as if he was a little surprised.
Seeing Lin Xuan's pretended surprised expression, Ruyi reached out and gently pushed Lin Xuan's head angrily, and said with a smile: "It's none of your business." In fact, she knew that Lin Xuan was deliberate, don't look at Lin Xuan as a child, but she knew everything, she just deliberately made fun of her just now.
Sure enough, Lin Xuan, who was nudged by Ruyi, gloated, grinning, at this time she was more like a child.
In fact, everyone is changing bit by bit with the passage of time, because everyone's road is not destined to be a smooth horse, there will always be some different ups and downs, rugged, and slowly you will find that some people around you have changed, and even some do not know each other.
But there will always be people who remember something in their hearts, but they don't really forget, and they become just some things on the surface, and the attachment in their hearts is difficult to change, whether they are just experiencing a bumpy road, or life and death that they can't see through at a glance.
"I heard you're going to do something earth-shattering lately. Nangong Chu looked at Wuxin, who was sitting opposite him, and said slowly, as if there was something in his words.
Wuxin smiled and said lightly: "It seems that there will never be a secret hidden in my body." There is indeed some truth in what he said, because the current bloody knife is not only the focus of the rivers and lakes, but also the focus of the eyes of the world, and his identity is no longer just the simple "bloody knife without heart" The four words can be said clearly. As long as it is related to him, it seems that it will not be long before everyone will know about it.
"If there is a place where I can be used, I can say it bluntly, Nangong Chu will definitely do his best. Nangong Chu looked at the Wuxin in front of him and said seriously.
That's right, he's serious, never so real. Because of what he did unintentionally, although it was nothing at first, but slowly you will find that all the things that Blood Knife did unintentionally were all things that should be done, but few people were willing to do it and dared to do it. More and more, he discovers that Wuxin is a friend who can be trusted with his life.
Wuxin smiled, smiled indifferently, and then looked at Nangong Chu seriously, and said lightly: "When did I say that I would let you be at ease for nothing, without you, how could this game of chess be played." It sounded like a joke, but he was very serious.
Nangong Chu also smiled, smiling very happily, originally he thought that Wuxin would no longer need him since he had a shadow, because there was no place where a blood knife and thirteen shadows were not to go, and there was nothing to dare to do.
I saw that Nangong Chu also nodded seriously, and said slowly: "Nangong Chu must sacrifice his life to accompany him." "It's categorical and impassioned.
But Wuxin shook his head and said lightly: "You are wrong." ”
"What's wrong?" Nangong Chu was puzzled.
"It's not that you Nangong Chu sacrificed your life to accompany you, but you and I advance and retreat together, live, you and I laugh and watch the changes together, die, I will go into the underworld with you!"
Nangong Chu smiled, and he smiled unintentionally. Two big men are talking about life and death here, I don't know if the tea drinkers are already drunk, or because they have the same righteousness in their hearts.
In fact, Wuxin had already left a place for Nangong Chu in the next big battle, which was also a vital part, but he hadn't figured out how to speak yet. Unexpectedly, Nangong Chu took the lead in opening his mouth, and it was a matter of course.
It's just that this time, no one knows victory or defeat, and they can't predict life and death, but that doesn't matter anymore, because they have agreed that no matter life or death, they will face it together and fight to the death. Not for anything else, just to be able to leave a bright future for those who care!
As long as people are free, time seems to pass quickly, and in the blink of an eye, three days have passed, and the war is about to break out. Even the Phantom City, which has always been a peaceful place like a child's cradle, has become cloudy at this time, and from time to time you can hear a few thunders from the sky, as if it is a sign that something big is going to happen, and even God can't bear to turn a deaf ear.
In the attic of the backyard of the Phantom Sound Pavilion, he looked at the window unintentionally, looking at the clouds rolling in the sky from a distance, his face was expressionless, and he seemed to have a trace of solemnity.
Seeing that Princess Ziling's wedding date has arrived, everything has come to the point where it is clear that it is time for him to leave. Leaving this only place that could bring him peace, he went to a distant place, to the sword mountain and sword forest, and broke into the bloody wind and rain.
He didn't know if he would leave completely after leaving this time, and if he could have the life to come back here again, because he knew that this time, it would be ten thousand times more dangerous than any previous time, and if he was not careful, he would lose everything, and there was no way back.
Therefore, he didn't plan to retreat, even if the sword mountain and the sea of fire greeted him in front of him, he had to break through, and there would be no retreat. Because he is the son of the hero Qin Feng, because he is a unique bloody knife heartless.
As for victory or defeat, everything is left to the unknown......
