Chapter Ninety-Seven: Redeeming the Heart
Lingyun Peak, Lingyun Peak.
At dusk, the remnant sun is like blood, and the sunset is colorful.
The only trace of warmth left on the peak was about to pass away, the air became suddenly cold, the soft mountain breeze flowed through the cliffs, making a "whine" sound, and the misty clouds and mist still floated around Lingyun Peak as usual.
At this time, I saw two figures appear on Lingyun Peak, it turned out to be Gu Nanyun and his senior sister He Lan'er.
Under a few ancient pines, Helan'er sat on a curved branch, her slender body leaned on it, one hand ruffled her wind-blown hair from time to time, and the crimson gauze dress on her body looked bright and eye-catching at the moment.
Under Helan'er's white face, she was full of sweetness and loveliness, and the smart aura she exuded when she laughed was even more wonderful.
Opposite her, there was a square stone table, on which was covered with a piece of rice paper more than a foot wide and about two feet long, and a black inkstone was placed next to it. Gu Nanyun lifted the wolf line in his hand, dipped it in ink, and carefully depicted it on the rice paper, outlining Helan'er's appearance......
On the other side, Helan'er saw Gu Nanyun meticulously painting for herself, and she tried her best to put on her best side and present it in front of him.
As time passed, Helan'er felt a sore back and wanted to stand up and move her muscles and bones, but when she thought that his little junior brother was still looking at her and drawing seriously, she forced herself to be patient.
"Xiaoyun, have you finished painting, senior sister, I'm uncomfortable to death!" He Lan'er finally couldn't help but ask Gu Nanyun.
When Gu Nanyun heard this, he didn't look up at her, but lowered his head and stared at the rice paper, and he smiled: "Senior sister...... Bear with me a little longer, and you'll be fine!"
He Lan'er said to him again: "Hey, you don't want to turn your senior sister into a fairy as beautiful, right? Xiaoyun, you can be casual, you don't have to be so serious." ”
After Gu Nanyun heard this, he raised his head and glanced at her, shook his head slightly, and said happily: "How can this be sloppy, it is the first time I have painted for you, senior sister, of course I have to paint it well!"
"Haha......"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Helan'er on the other side snort and laughed......
Seeing this, Gu Nanyun was a little puzzled why his senior sister was laughing, so he stopped his pen and asked suspiciously, "Senior sister, what are you laughing at!"
He Lan'er held back her laughter, pointed a finger at his face, and said, "Xiaoyun, look at your face, why did you still draw a few strokes of ink on yourself! After she finished speaking, she "giggled" and laughed again.
It turned out that I don't know when, in the process of painting, Gu Nanyun accidentally got a little ink on his face, which caused He Lan'er to laugh so much.
"Hey......
Gu Nanyun laughed a little innocently, and then said happily: "Senior sister, don't you say that I don't know yet, then senior sister will stop when she has laughed enough, and let me draw a few more strokes, my masterpiece will come out soon." ”
"Xiaoyun, you are so confident! Master often says that you are highly qualified, and I don't know what your painting skills are, so I want to take a look at it later. He Lan'er put away her smile and said with an expectant expression.
"Senior sister, just wait!" Gu Nanyun said, and picked up the pen again.
After a while, Gu Nanyun's painting was finally finished, he put down the pen in his hand, breathed a long sigh of relief, and then picked up the rice paper on the stone table with both hands, looked at his painting with both eyes, and nodded, it could be seen that he was still quite satisfied with his painting.
Gu Nanyun said at this moment: "Senior sister, it's already done, please come and watch it!"
He Lan'er stood up from under the pine tree opposite, she clapped her hands, smiled away, and strode towards Gu Nanyun's side.
"Senior sister, do you want to see if it looks like you?" Gu Nanyun asked.
He Lan'er stood side by side with him, and the two of them lowered their heads together, looking at the portrait on the stone table where the ink had not yet dried. Just look at the woman in the painting, the essence of the gods, lifelike on the paper, but there are eight or nine points very similar to Helan'er.
When He Lan'er saw this, she was stunned, it turned out that she really had a different appearance in this painting, and even she couldn't help but like the person in this painting.
"Xiaoyun, it turns out that you are so powerful, in a few years, you really have to catch up with Mr. Zhang, the painter in the door. He Lan'er said to Gu Nanyun with a look of surprise.
Gu Nanyun listened, and replied with some embarrassment: "Senior sister, you are too exalted to me, all the disciples of the entire Lingyun Peak are learning to paint under Mr. Zhang, how dare I compare with his old man!"
Helan'er didn't think so, she said: "Anyway, that's what I think, senior sister believes in you, hehe......"
Then, she said, "Then can you give this painting to Senior Sister?"
Gu Nanyun replied briskly, and he said, "Of course, since it is a portrait of a senior sister, you must keep it." ”
Helan'er smiled like a flower and said, "Thank you Xiaoyun, then I'll accept it!"
At this moment, Gu Nanyun's mood when he looked at her seemed to be much better than before, thinking that it was mostly related to the dissolution of the marriage contract with Yin Zhongxuan, so he asked: "Senior sister, I heard from the master that you and Yin Zhongxuan of Cangyun Peak have broken off the marriage contract?"
"Hmm. Helan'er replied without hesitation: "Yes! Now that a big stone in my heart has finally been put down, I will never have any more entanglements with that person." ”
"Later, I'll tell Senior Brother to go and tell him the good news, I believe he will be happy to die if he knows!" Gu Nanyun also said happily.
But when He Lan'er heard this, her smile sank, and she said with some displeasure: "I dissolved the marriage contract, what is the matter with Senior Brother Guan, does he know what it has to do with me!"
Gu Nanyun smiled "hehe", and he said heartily: "Senior sister, don't you like senior brother? I know that senior brother has always liked you, but he didn't tell you because you had a marriage contract." ”
Helan'er's face turned red, her eyes rolled a few times, and she replied: "How do I know, with his big wood, who will like him!"
"Ha, ha, ha!" Gu Nanyun looked at her, put on a look of disbelief, and said: "Senior sister, don't hide it from me, of course the two of you are clear about me, senior brother is so good, I don't know how many girls want to pursue him!"
"As long as you talk too much, don't talk about this anymore!" He Lan'er said pretending to be serious. But her originally reddish face showed a hint of joy, who could tell whether she liked Jiang Yao or not.
"Look, Senior Sister, your expression has already betrayed you, I'll tell Master in a few days, you are not small, it's time to start a family." Gu Nanyun replied with a smile.
He Lan'er snorted and hurriedly said, "Xiaoyun, if you say that Senior Sister will ignore you." ”
Just as the two of them were talking, suddenly, a black light appeared from the sky in the distance, rushing towards the top of Lingyun Peak.
At that glance, it turned out that Yin Zhongxuan was stepping on a flying sword, and the momentum was as fierce as a meteor falling down Lingyun Feifeng.
Almost at the same time, Helan'er and Gu Nanyun both saw Yin Zhongxuan's imperial sword flying down and stopped in front of them.
As soon as the two of them saw Yin Zhongxuan, they immediately had an ominous premonition in their hearts, only looking at the fierce look on Yin Zhongxuan's face, a pair of resentful eyes shot at their bodies, as if they were about to eat the two of them immediately.
At this time, the two sides confronted each other for a while, and their expressions became solemn, and now they were afraid that there would be a fight.
"It turned out to be Senior Brother Yin, you trespassed into Lingyun Peak without permission, what do you want to do here?" Gu Nanyun looked at Yin Zhongxuan and said.
Yin Zhongxuan, who was opposite them, glared at Gu Nanyun fiercely, and a wave of anger in his chest was about to erupt, but he finally held back.
Then, Yin Zhongxuan ignored Gu Nanyun, he set his eyes on He Lan'er's body, the corners of his mouth trembled slightly, and his eyes were full of questions and sadness.
Seeing him with such a vicious appearance, Helan Er couldn't help but chuckle in her heart, looking at this situation, he should have known about the dissolution of the marriage contract between them. But no matter what, what should come is always coming, she had already guessed that Yin Zhongxuan would not give up and come here to Lingyun Peak to ask for guilt.
"Senior Sister Lan'er...... Do you already know about the dissolution of the marriage contract?" Yin Zhongxuan gritted his teeth hard, and asked slowly word by word, with a hatred in his voice, and went straight to He Lan'er.
After Helan'er heard this, her face was silent, and she didn't even look at him anymore, but replied coldly: "Since Senior Brother Yin already knows about this, why do you bother to ask." The infinite coldness and ruthlessness in this tone made Yin Zhongxuan's heart ache like a knife.
It is said that Yin Zhongxuan is a person with a bad heart, he has always been arrogant and arrogant and has no one in his eyes, but his liking for Helan'er can be regarded as absolutely sincere, but this final ending is really unbearable for him, which makes him both angry and sad.
Seeing Yin Zhongxuan dragging his trembling body step by step, he approached Helan'er's side, getting closer and closer to her......
At this time, Gu Nanyun saw that something was wrong, he quickly picked up the Kunqi sword placed next to the stone table, only to hear the sound of "Zheng", the long sword was pulled out of its scabbard by him, shining with pure yellow light and pointing directly at Yin Zhongxuan.
"You take one step further, don't blame me for being rude!" Gu Nanyun said to Yin Zhongxuan with angry eyes, and then he stood in front of He Lan'er and blocked her senior sister.
Yin Zhongxuan listened to it, ignored him, and just said coldly: "Stinky boy, don't care about your business, you go away......"
With that, he laughed out loud, gasping for breath in his mouth, pointing his finger at He Lan'er and saying angrily: "What a question, Senior Sister Lan'er, how can you be so ruthless?"
As soon as Yin Zhongxuan finished speaking, He Lan'er stepped forward from behind Gu Nanyun, and she said, "Xiaoyun, you get out of the way first, it's time to end the matter between me and him today." ”
After hearing this, Gu Nanyun looked at Yin Zhongxuan and snorted coldly, put away the sword in his hand, and walked away to the side.
"Senior Sister Lan'er, I have always respected you well, and that's because I like you, I really like you, and I haven't changed since I was a child. Now that you're going to break off the engagement with me, do I really make you so annoying?" Yin Zhongxuan's emotions gradually rose, and he said to He Lan'er with some sadness.
Helan'er listened to him say this, she looked at Yin Zhongxuan's anger and unwillingness, maybe his heart was really painful! Even so, they were destined not to be together.
He Lan'er slowly spoke, and said: "Why are you so troubled, I don't like you at all, the marriage contract between you and me was originally made by the previous generation, but so what, I won't marry you if you say anything, you still die of this heart!"
Originally, before Yin Zhongxuan came here, he still had a glimmer of hope, hoping that through his sincerity, he would impress her and make Helan'er change her mind. But now the results he got were difficult for him to accept.
Yin Zhongxuan listened to He Lan'er's words, his whole body went limp, and his face became decadent, even if he was reluctant in his heart, so what?
Yin Zhongxuan let out a long sigh, and he said in a pleading tone: "If you think I'm wrong, I can change it, I will do my best to become the person you like, just ask you not to break the marriage contract, okay......"
Listening to Yin Zhongxuan's gentle words, how much he wanted to redeem her, and in his tone, there was infinite begging. His current appearance, compared to the arrogant and uninhibited him before, is now like two people.
He Lan'er, who was opposite him, was still deaf and indifferent.
Helan'er saw that Yin Zhongxuan seemed to have changed all of a sudden, looking at his sad appearance, the original hatred in her heart turned into sympathy, she said a little unbearably: "I'm sorry, I can't promise you, if you don't like it, you don't like it, don't waste any more time, you can go!"
In the field, Gu Nanyun, who was standing on the side, saw this situation, looked at Yin Zhongxuan's humble appearance, and couldn't help but feel a little pitiful, after all, everyone was in the same room, although he hated Yin Zhongxuan very much, but he didn't want this matter to come to such a situation.
Yin Zhongxuan listened to He Lan'er's decisive words, thinking that no matter how much he said, it would be useless, and the anger in his heart burned his entire body and mind, and he almost became crazy. As the so-called love is deep, affectionate, and loved, it will eventually make a person become discouraged.
