Chapter Seventy-Three: Out of Reach
In the vast mountains, a dazzling cluster of anger made this dark night of the Valley of Soul Leaving seem to have returned to seventeen years ago.
Disciples from various families came one after another, and they all received the news that Du Fengze was defeated and came to find out.
After all, people's hearts are panicked.
The monks came and went, Xiao Zijin's forehead hair was slightly scattered, standing alone in front of the court, ignoring the people, only the fire not far away in his eyes, although it was separated by an enchantment, he couldn't feel the heat of the flames, but his face was still covered with beads of sweat.
The same Valley of Souls, the same fire!
His face was pale, his chest rose and fell rapidly, his hands trembled and trembled at his sides, clenched into a fist, and his knuckles were white.
Not far behind him, the firelight reflected the faces of several people.
Gu Huayin felt the same way, thinking that the Soul Valley where all spirits grew in the past was destroyed, and today she finally took a breath of evil in her heart and avenged her parents and relatives, thinking of this, she also looked at each other silently with tears.
Chang Yue asked Feng Qisi, "You told him?"
Feng Qisi asked rhetorically, "How is his health?"
"If you don't have fifty percent of your cultivation, soak in medicinal soup for a month to expel the remaining poison, and then rest for a few days to heal. It's just that... I heard that Du Fengze treated him like a brother and a father in the past, took good care of him, and also advanced and retreated together in life and death, and overnight his relatives became enemies, new hatreds and old hatreds, but Xiao Zijin couldn't find him to question him face to face, he must be indignant, afraid that he would hold back his heart. ”
Feng Qisi listened and disagreed.
Gu Huayin said what Feng Qisi thought in his heart: "The young master has passed and standed, since he knows the truth, he will definitely not let the enemy succeed in this slump, but he should cheer up quickly and truly shoulder the responsibility that he should fulfill when he leaves the young master of the Soul Valley! ”
Feng Qisi nodded approvingly: "Sure enough, it is in the same vein as Izumo Peak, and it does not lose the style of the year." ”
Gu Huayin heard his words, turned her face slightly and raised her eyes, looked at Chang Yue, Chang Yue instructed everyone beside her: "If there is any change, report it immediately." And he turned and departed.
In Tianhua Zhai, Fu Huan'er's eyes were already swollen from crying, and she was still sobbing, Fu Honglian hugged her and pointed at Lingdou and said: "Huan'er, obediently, look, isn't your brother Lingdou still here? He'll be fine!"
Lingdou reluctantly leaned his back against the wall and didn't speak, obviously he had already said a lot, but it didn't work.
He looked at his feet, piled up with a large bag of knocked out small animals that Fu Huan'er had carried back, including black cats, flower cats, bobcats, raccoons, and a... Iron Eater (Panda)...
Well, she also knows how to pick good looks.
He couldn't help but sigh deeply, and said to Fu Honglian: "Six-tails, if I don't go back and I'm gone, you must take care of her, or let him marry a powerful husband, otherwise it's really... The damage is endless!"
Fu Huan'er was burying her head and crying, hearing him say this, she pointed at him again, choked up and couldn't speak, and finally "Wow...!", and cried loudly again!
Fu Honglian was so distressed that she scolded while stroking her daughter's back:
"Phew, you heartless child! When will you learn to speak well, Huan'er is about to cry to death for you, you don't say to persuade and persuade well, but chase and poke her heart, you want to die?!"
Lingdou raised the corners of his mouth and smiled when he heard this: "Yes, it's been more than ten years, and it's easy to find the plush felt that she was used to using when she sleeps with a pillow on her legs and legs, and it's gone after a few times, um... It's strange and pitiful. ”
At this time, An Sanping walked in, and Fu Honglian hurriedly got up and asked him, "How is it, what did An Ci say?"
An Sanping shook his head silently and didn't say anything, the atmosphere was a little heavy. At this time, Lin Xiaotang appeared behind him and pulled him out, stretched his head in and said with a smile: "I'm going to drink with my brother, you guys talk slowly, talk slowly, remember to rest early." ”
An Sanping had been dragged by Lin Xiaotang to the Moon Pavilion on the top of the Qilin Pavilion, and only then was his hand loosened, he shook his arm and said strangely: "Big brother, what are you doing?"
"What are you doing, I'm going to ask what you're doing! Huan'er is sad, can't you be more euphemistic, or simply lie and coax Huan'er? You're good, then when you say it, I don't know and think that Lingdou is about to die, but in fact, the worst is to go back to the soul stone and sleep?... Although I feel sad in my heart, but now that it has come to this, I have to think so..."
The more Lin Xiaotang spoke, the lower his voice became, probably because he himself didn't have the confidence to think about it: "In short, you are too stupid and can't coax people, it's not appropriate to stay there! It's better for Lingdou to talk about cool things there, it's much more useful. ”
An Sanping saw that there was no one around at the moment, and the Qilin Pavilion was only for his senior brother to live in, so he took off his mask wordlessly and asked, "Where's the wine?"
Lin Xiaotang was stunned, and hesitantly handed him the wine jar in his hand: "Tell me, don't you know how to drink?"
An Sanping took it and raised his head to take a sip, choking.
Lin Xiaotang pursed his lips and shook his head: "Big brother, before I met you, I was alone, and I felt that my life was a little harder, but I was never afraid, I was lonely, so I went to worship God, I drank and chatted with them, and called me brother and brother." Since I met you and Liuyun, I have been reborn and have grown my skills, I also have people who are concerned, and I know the real immortals, and I am really afraid at this time, I am afraid that I am not a good big brother and cannot protect the people I care about. Second brother, you are the same, I know that although you are stupid, you always have a number in your heart, and you also have an idea, it is nothing if you want to get drunk here, but don't forget, what did you go down the mountain for. Lingdou is doing this to protect you, who are you for?"
An Sanping swallowed a sip of wine, looked at the wine jar seriously and said, "For Izumo Peak, for Xuanzhengtang, for... Sister Gu. ”
Lin Xiaotang stretched out a finger and shook it: "Wrong! Everyone respects you as the valley master, even your Gu sister has to protect you, Lingdou will save you with his life, naturally because you are the Chosen World-Honored One, counting on them, you are covering them, you are fighting for them, for... Fight for justice!" Lin Xiaotang became excited as he spoke, and made a gesture of drawing his sword in a hero he thought was more handsome, and raised his chin at An Sanping, and suddenly he had an idea, and felt that he was also great: "Yes, you protect the world, I protect you, that is why I, Lin Xiaotang, am saving the common people!"
The more he thought about it, the happier he became, he jumped lightly in front of An Sanping's eyes, took the wine jar and took a sip, sat cross-legged again, pointed an orchid in one hand to his chest, and asked with a grin: "Brother, look at me, you say, is it possible that in the future, they will treat me as a god when they see me, worship me, ah?"
An Sanping looked at his hippie smile and couldn't help laughing: "Big brother, it will definitely be! I worship you, if they don't worship it, it's absolutely impossible!"
When he smiled, Lin Xiaotang was also stunned: "Hey, brother, I haven't looked at you carefully for so long, it seems that this face is much more handsome than when I first met you... In my opinion, it's not much worse than your senior brother. ”
Relying on the moonlight and drinking, Lin Xiaotang wanted to dilute An Sanping's guilt towards Lingdou, so he specially talked to him about Gu Huayin.
"If you like her, you will find an opportunity to tell her, about your identity and sincerity, no matter how strong people are, they are girls after all, and we men must speak first about this kind of thing!"
"I didn't know about her... If Sister Gu knew my identity, she might be angry with me. ”
"I just don't know before I have to say it! Since ancient times, beauties have loved heroes, and you saved her at a critical moment today, and you are her hero, just the right match! What are you embarrassed to say? Even if she doesn't love heroes and beautiful men, you are also an out-and-out beautiful man, in fact, you are dressed a little inferior to your senior brother, you look at the cheese linen you wear, and then look at your senior brother's body! White clothes and red silk, how elegant! How handsome!
He remembered something, handed over the wine jar and said with a smile: "Just now when I came, I heard the sound of water, your senior brother is bathing and changing, I will go and ask you for a set of clothes for your Izumo Peak." ”
Before An Sanping could speak, Lin Xiaotang disappeared.
An Sanping was stunned for a short time, only to see that Lin Xiaotang really took a set of clothes over, and forcibly pushed himself to change out, and when he saw it, he praised again: "The face is like a crown, the lips are red, the teeth are white, and the demeanor is that dignified talent!" This is a common sentence in the teahouse, An Sanping smiled again.
Lin Xiaotang smiled when he saw him, and was stunned again: "Beautiful! I think this opportunity today is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that cannot be missed, you listen to the eldest brother, wait here, don't move, don't move, wait!"
In an instant, there was no one again.
I don't know what kind of medicine he sells in his gourd.
An Sanping shook his head with a smile, stood up and looked down on this Soul Valley, this heaven and earth.
The moon and stars are scarce, because of the firelight, His Excellency Qilin accidentally someone looked up and saw such an amazing and elegant posture in this attic, and couldn't help but stop and think with envy: This son in white and red silk, I don't know which immortal on Izumo Peak has such a kind beauty, if you can see it, you must know it.
An Sanping was completely unaware of the envy of the people downstairs, and suddenly heard Gu Huayin's soft voice behind him: "It turned out to be you." ”
An Sanping was so nervous that he didn't dare to turn around, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.
Behind him, Gu Huayin also paused and said, "Today... Thank you for coming to the rescue, I know that today is a life of nine deaths, but with you by your side, Gu Huayin... I didn't feel scared. ”
When An Sanping heard this, there was a sudden burst of ecstasy in his heart, and he couldn't believe that his heart was really sincere. Just as he was about to turn around, he heard Gu Huayin say:
"I've heard that the pear blossoms on Izumo Peak are in full bloom all year round, like Ruixue Hanfang, in fact, I remember when I was young, the same flowers in the Valley of the Soul were like this... Now that the Valley of Souls has returned to life, however, the pear blossom scene is no longer there... I don't know, whether the little woman will have the opportunity to go to the Furu Hall of the Immortals to have a look... Tell us about this?"
The smile on An Sanping's face gradually subsided.
Furu Hall is the residence of his senior brother, and even this name is rarely known.
Gu Huayin is so attentive to Chang Yue.
Seeing that he was silent, Gu Huayin sighed lightly: "It's me who is abrupt... I had something to do, just... Don't disturb the immortal's purity!"
The footsteps were getting farther away, An Sanping still couldn't come back to his senses from what he said just now, and at this moment he only felt that everything was over, and he was a little stunned.
Why? Why Senior Brother?
"Ping'er, for my brother, I only brought this set of clothes this time. ”
An Sanping was suddenly awakened by his senior brother's voice, startled, and when he turned around, he saw Chang Yue standing around the corner, wearing only a deep coat, looking at him with his back hand.
As soon as he was in a trance, Chang Yue had arrived in front of him, looked at him carefully and said, "Why is your face so pale?" ”
An Sanping didn't know how much Chang Yue had listened to at this time, and he was a little at a loss, and he said for a long time: "... Senior brother loves to be clean, I have already worn this clothes, whether you wash it, it will be dried soon. ”
Chang Yue came closer, looked at him and said gently, "It's okay. ”
