Night.

As the capital of the Aoba Domain of the Suzaku Kingdom, Aoba Castle has many merchants and warriors, and it has its own prosperous scenery.

And because today is the annual lantern festival, tonight's Aoba Castle will be more lively than usual.

The fireworks and firecrackers added more color to the sky of this green leaf city, and the acrobatic troupe and opera troupe, which were rarely seen in the past, also set up an open-air stage and performed hard, so that the people in the city could feast their eyes.

Those businessmen also came to join in the fun, put out some novelties for sale, the lamp shop put out a lot of lanterns to compete for beauty, the wilderness team also set up a pet business, the wild land back of the birds, animals, rare flowers, people open their eyes, buyers and sellers can return with a full load.

Even if he hadn't walked out of the City Lord's Mansion yet, Li Tian could hear the faint laughter outside, and the joy of the festival had alleviated Li Tian's inner sorrow a lot.

Although he is not a fun-loving person, he rarely participates in such activities in previous years, after all, he will inevitably be looked at more often after being recognized.

But being able to feel that happy atmosphere from afar is also a very happy thing for Li Tian.

Originally, Li Tian also planned to watch the free fireworks at home this year and chat with Xiao Si more by the way, but when he borrowed the Soul Chasing Bow before, he really couldn't avoid Sun Ziyan's invitation, so he had to go out to hang out with her tonight.

After changing into clean clothes, Li Tian left the City Lord's Mansion and came to Wutong Street in the east of the city, where the Sun family's mansion was located.

Turning the corner of the street, Li Tian saw Sun Ziyan who had just gone out, and unexpectedly saw the distant cousin Li Keer who always liked to stab him.

As soon as he saw Li Tian appear, that Li Ke'er took the lead in attacking Li Tian: "Why are you here?"

Although in front of Sun Ziyan, Li Ke'er was very careful not to say anything hurtful, but the disgusted expression as if she had seen something disgusting was enough to make Li Tian feel depressed.

Li Tian rolled his eyes and said, "Don't worry, I'm not here to find you." ”

Miss Li Keer, who has been being served by other friends, saw Li Tian's unkind appearance, and immediately raised her eyebrows, and she was about to quarrel with Li Tian on the spot, but fortunately, Sun Ziyan was there.

"Ke'er, didn't you say that Li Nianyou and the others want to take you to see the mirage of the Blue Dragon Kingdom? If you don't go early, you won't be able to occupy a good seat. ”

It is said that a certain warrior was inspired by the occasional mirage in the East China Sea and created this technique, which can reproduce the stories of opera that were once truly staged in other places across time and space, enriching the spiritual life of the people of Pangea.

The curious Li Tian once watched it once and felt that this should be a movie that belonged to another world.

"Let them go, I just want to play with Sister Zi Yan, so that some people don't always revolve around Sister Zi Yan. ”

As she spoke, Li Ke'er also glared at Li Tian fiercely, so that Li Tian didn't know what to say.

His stupid distant cousin admires and longs for Sun Ziyan, who is talented, gentle, and talented, and naturally doesn't like him, a distant cousin who is not worthy of Sun Ziyan at all, not to mention that he, a waste who can't cultivate, has made the Li family a joke that has been seen by outsiders for so many years, and it is really not strange that Li Keer doesn't like him.

Sun Ziyan touched Li Ke'er's little head melon and persuaded: "Haven't you been thinking about that mirage scene for a long time? If you want to watch it, you can watch it, my sister won't go to the mirage drama later, if you miss it, you can only wait for the next year to see it." ”

Li Ke'er, who was stunned by Sun Ziyan's head touching and killing, couldn't touch the southeast and northwest all of a sudden, and she didn't care about Li Tian, a nasty guy, so she happily obeyed Sun Ziyan's arrangement and went to watch the mirage play.

After the glowing light bulb was turned on, Sun Ziyan walked to Li Tian's side, and the two slowly walked in the opposite direction to Li Ke'er.

Merchants are shouting, passers-by are bargaining, fireworks are blooming, children are laughing, and all kinds of bustling noise surround the two, but because neither of them speaks, it creates a strange quiet atmosphere.

"Kerr is actually a very simple child. ”

In order not to silence the two of them all the way, Sun Ziyan took the lead in talking.

Otherwise, with Sun Ziyan's understanding of Li Tian's character over the years, he is definitely willing to play a stuffy gourd for one night.

This guy's ability to pretend to be stupid and stupid makes Sun Ziyan sometimes hate itchy.

"That girl is really stupid. Li Tian, who couldn't continue to pretend to be dumb, echoed with a smile.

Sun Ziyan sighed helplessly: "I didn't say she was stupid, Ke'er was just simple." ”

"Isn't it just plain stupid. ”

"Obviously, I have worked so hard to cultivate, and I have even been on the list of candidates for the future head of the family, but I don't know at all to be wary of those people around me, and when I am provoked by others, I become a knife in the hands of others, and I come to step on me, the waste of the Li family, which not only helps those people come forward to hit my reputation, but also leaves a bad impression in the eyes of those old men in the family that it is easy to be used, and will be regarded as a villain who bullies the same clan by some unknown people. ”

"It's not a loss. ”

It's like talking about his stupid niece when he is talking about family life, Li Tian's face is the kind of smile with intimacy.

Although Li Keer always jumped out to scold him for being a waste, not seeking progress or anything, and occasionally beating people when he was angry, this stupid girl had no malice in her heart, she was just a kind-hearted sister who wanted to do something after seeing a depressed and self-depraved waste brother in the family.

Legend has it that the child is sincere, his heart is like a mirror, he can know the good and evil of people's hearts, Li Tian can actually vaguely perceive a little people's hearts, but he is because he is a traverser and has a strong soul, so he can barely do it.

After feeling their contempt and malice from those treacherous guys, Li Tian is actually quite upset sometimes, in this case, being scolded by Li Keer, a pure-minded silly girl, with her crisp voice, compared to the two, Li Tian sometimes feels that he is scolded quite comfortably.

Just like in his previous life, when he was exhausted after getting off work, he heard his little niece give him a "Baga Hentai Roadless Race" triple shot, which was a little refreshing.

Seeing that the smile on Li Tian's face gradually became a bad taste, Sun Ziyan knew that Li Tian was definitely not thinking about anything good.

Sun Ziyan tilted her head, looked at Li Tian's side face, and said, "It turns out that you don't hate Ke'er, a silly girl." ”

"She's so stupid, I really can't hate it. ”

"Since you know everything, aren't you going to help her?"

"My dad is not confused, he can see more clearly than me, and he doesn't need me to draw snakes. Moreover, Kerr's temperament is indeed not suitable for being the head of the house. ”

"Still do nothing, don't you say anything......"

Sun Ziyan glanced at Li Tian deeply.

"So what about this Infernal Pavilion, do you still have to choose not to say anything, even in front of me, my fiancée?"

Li Tian shifted his gaze uncomfortably: "You know everything." ”

With the power of the Sun family, it was not difficult to know that Li Tian had been put on the assassination list of Infernal Pavilion.

"If I ask my father to send someone to protect you, your safety will be more secure. ”

Li Tian grinned: "It's not good, it's so embarrassing to bother Uncle Sun." ”

If Sun Ziyan and his father Sun Zhonghu really sent people, Li Tian was worried that he would be killed by the people of the Sun family before the people of Infernal Pavilion came.

Sun Ziyan glanced at Li Tian and sighed: "Is it so difficult to accept my kindness?"

No, no, no, girl, I'm not the kind of machismo who can't tell the difference between good and bad, and I want to save face and suffer crimes, I'm really thinking about the safety of my life!

Sun Ziyan untied a string of red jade beads tied by a red rope on her left wrist and handed it to Li Tian.

The round and clear jade bead bracelet lay quietly in Li Tian's palm, and the jade bead that had just been untied from his wrist still had a little bit of body temperature belonging to the girl.

Eighteen red jade beads of similar shape and size are crossed by a red rope of similar color and strung together, and the main bead in the center of the bracelet is the most special. Inside the jade bead is a lifelike, only a few petals of the immature red lotus, turn the jade bead, you can also see the red lotus in the bead slightly ups and downs, as if it is really growing in the bead.

The slightly lighter red rope passed through the red jade beads, like a river formed by flames, passing between the jade mountains, but only when passing through the main bead, it was perfectly integrated with the jade beads, and the jade beads did not appear the slightest flaw, even if Li Tian took the jade beads in front of him and looked at them carefully, he still could not see the traces of the jade beads being punched.

This craft can really be called ingenious. Li Tian secretly said to himself in his heart.

"These seventeen auxiliary beads are made by my father from a thousand-year-old warm jade, and after dripping blood and recognizing the master, he can release the aura of the internal seal, which can be comparable to the full force of a Qi Realm martial artist. And the main bead is called Red Lotus, which is said to have been handed down by the ancestors of our Sun family, and it is said that it represents a favor of a certain big person, and can 100% save the life of the person who crushed the bead. ”

Li Tian understood, it turned out that this red lotus jade bead bracelet was a life talisman given to him by Sun Ziyan.

Not to mention the red lotus bead of unknown origin, the seventeen auxiliary beads that represented the full force of the qi warrior were enough to help him buy time to escape at the critical moment.

This gift is too heavy.

Seeing Li Tian standing there stunned, not wearing the bracelet, the girl was rarely a little angry, took the initiative to grab Li Tian's hand, and then took Li Tian's fingers in her mouth.

Tingling slightly, Li Tian's finger was bitten out by Sun Ziyan A small hole, and then Sun Ziyan grabbed Li Tian's hand and smeared the oozing blood on the red lotus jade bead bracelet, and the bracelet that recognized the success of the master emitted a faint blood light.

In front of Sun Ziyan, who had reached the Great Perfection of the Forging Body Realm and was able to carry the crown, Li Tian's little strength really didn't even have the qualifications to resist.

"Promise me to live forever. ”

Tonight, the moon is bright, there is no wind and no rain, and at this time, the fireworks are starry and illuminate the foreground.

At that moment, the girl's tactful gentleness when she held the boy's hand and asked him for a promise became the most unforgettable memory for each other.
