Chapter 272: "Hidden in the Mist"
The world is so complex and changing that people can't always see the true shape of it. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info or rather, some things, once debunked, change their taste. The folding fan concealed the surprise in his eyebrows, and the ninth prince deliberately sighed in a strange tone: "Brother Lu, why are you so rude, does this look really look like your friend? ā
"Oh, yes? Although the wine has not yet been served, people are already drunk and confused. Auntie's wine is indeed a good wine, even if it is more expensive, it is indeed worth it. Holding a porcelain wine bowl in his hand, the tip of his white nose sniffed lightly. He was a good drinker, but unfortunately, he didn't bring more on the way here, and later, he was bothered by everything and couldn't drink.
Two people sit opposite each other, and one person drinks alone. Since he didn't want to admit it, Bai Yi didn't look at him, but just drank by himself, wanting to get drunk with all his melancholy. If you can still get drunk now, then it is naturally good.
At least, he himself was willing.
"Brother Lu, do you value this friend of yours very much?" didn't respond for a long time, and Jiu Gongzi couldn't hide his curiosity, he was really strange, how did this person whose origin is a mystery know about Yan and this person. Perhaps, it has something to do with his unexplored past, and it is precisely because there is no way to explore that it is the most touching to people's hearts.
There is no one in the northern sects who does not want to know where this famous white-clothed young man came from, after all, even the Ninety-Five Lord, who sits on the four seas of the world, can't even know the slightest, which in itself already explains the problem. No one will be born out of thin air, there will always be parents, there will always be relatives and friends, and there will always be a causal past.
And there is no white clothes, no parents, relatives and friends, no history, secret agents can't find out, wind media can't ask, and even can't calculate the heavenly tricks. He is like an immortal who suddenly went to the lower realm, and in this life, he is just a passerby's sojourn.
The northern sects knew about this, so they only made sporadic temptations, and even if something happened, they could stop it in time so as not to attract unknowable disasters. Anyone who can be in charge of a faction is not a fool, who would offend a person whose background is a mystery to death, and those who do this kind of thing will have died in the deep waters of the rivers and lakes a long time ago.
His Majesty the Emperor also knows about this matter, the Imperial City Division used more than seventy percent of the secret spies in the south of the Yangtze River, and lost the lives of the four masters of heavenly machine arithmetic to nothing, how could His Majesty the Emperor, who wants to stabilize the world and create a prosperous era, not know the meaning, as long as he is not an enemy, why should this kind of person force him to a desperate situation.
The old man of the Luo family naturally knows about this matter, so he doesn't like the person in white, because heaven and man are eternally separated, how can a person who is destined to be a passerby and has the character of a passerby become the lover of his granddaughter.
Generally speaking, people will probably fantasize about something they don't know or can't understand as some unknown power, or some unknown existence, such as legends such as immortals.
But probably because the name of the white man was promoted by himself, so everyone acquiesced, he is still a person, at least the young man in white is definitely not an existence such as a fairy god, for his enemies, or for His Majesty the Emperor, this is a good thing.
Thinking about everything about the young man in front of him, Jiu Gongzi was even more itchy, he felt that he really had the opportunity to uncover this mystery with his own hands, and explore this thing that countless people wanted to know, but had no way to get started. What's more, in Long Ya's eyes, the other party's past is obviously closely related to him, because he can see the familiar feeling in Bai Yi's eyes as if he is looking at another person, just like in Bai Yi's eyes, he should actually be a different look.
"Brother Lu, if you have anything to say, you might as well talk to Zaixia, I am also very interested in what Brother Lu said. After all, he couldn't bear it, and Jiu Gongzi still provoked the conversation, although this topic was a little embarrassing for him, but for the sake of what he wanted to know, he couldn't take care of it so much.
"You're not peacemaker, why should I talk to you so much. Besides, how can there be a good time to drink while chatting, you can get drunk when you drink, and when people are drunk, there will naturally be no sorrow, how enjoyable it is. He poured himself a drink, and Bai Yi didn't pay any attention to the ninth prince beside him, even if it was a treat from the other party, but he didn't ask him, could it be that he couldn't afford to pay for these drinks?
The person in front of him was wandering, but his mind was extremely clear, and he didn't leak, and the ninth prince gritted his silver teeth with some resentment, and he was helpless. He can't just admit that he is what this person is talking about, it's so faceless.
After all, after admitting it, didn't those few chance encounters become proof that he was interested in him?
But after thinking about it for a long time, Jiu Gongzi still couldn't find a reason to persuade the other party to speak, after all, it was the same as those people, and he really didn't know anything about this incomparably mysterious person.
Yes, he is known as the first person under the divine realm, and there is no Nine Rank Consummation who is his opponent. But who can be sure, this is the limit of this young man, who can be sure that if the Divine Realm makes a move, he will not also die in his hands. A smart person will not expose all his details, although I don't know how smart this young man is, but no one will think that the first under the divine realm will be his bottom line.
Otherwise, this number one alone would not have allowed him to sit so peacefully.
"You won. Jiu Gongzi clenched the folding fan in his hand, gritted his teeth, and finally admitted his defeat, "Now you can tell me, why are you looking for me, what does your past have to do with me and the dragon's teeth." ā
Quite surprised, he glanced at the resentful Nine Princes, and the white clothes suddenly smiled, laughing heartily. He picked up the half-empty jar, got up and poured her a full bowl, then picked up his own bowl and drank it all. Facing that familiar but unforgettable face, Bai Yi only said such a sentence.
"My past has nothing to do with you, but I've seen your shadows. Yanhe, what do you think will be the place above the nine heavens? Or do you think there is another world?"
"What do you mean?" there was a certain understanding and surprise in Yanhe's pupils, she probably guessed something, but she couldn't believe it at all. Although some people have speculated about this possibility, most of them are regarded as whimsical and whimsical, and there is no basis for reality, or there is no basis for proving the claim itself.
"The Central Plains is divided into north and south, and then surrounded by the four seas. But what about beyond the four seas? Where is the land overseas? And where is it beyond the land of the sea? And you look up at the sun, moon and stars, and the sky is high, and the sun, moon and stars are above it, and no one can touch it, but what do you think will be above the nine heavens? And what will be above the nine heavens?"
Bai Yi didn't give her an answer, just put forward one pending hypothesis after another. He has also seen the atlas of the sea country in this world, listing endless mountains and rivers, listing the theory that heaven and earth are round, and self-circulation, has already broken through the barriers of heaven and earth and place. But no one knows what the so-called parallel world is, what theories outside the vast universe, and they will generally think that it is the abode of the immortal gods.
"Are you really an immortal?" Yan He asked suspiciously, maybe the other party had this possibility in the eyes of ordinary people, but in her eyes, she naturally did not have that kind of qualification. Although the origin of the other party is a mystery, and it is rumored to be an immortal, if the immortal god only has such a level, then it is a little too disappointing.
If it can be achieved with human power, why make up a bunch of immortals, it is inevitably a little ridiculous.
"A Zen master once said that the Buddha is born with five-colored stems, a flower and a world, and a leaf is the same. Since there is one flower and one world, then how can there be only one place in the so-called world, and how can people like you and me only exist in one world?" Bai Yi smiled, he probably believed that the other party's comprehension ability was enough to understand his own meaning, if it wasn't for this, why did he have to come to her before.
"The fog of the world is real, no one can say that he knows it completely, and what I can know is naturally what I have experienced and been proven. So whether you believe it or not, I'm just a mortal from another world, just a few more inexplicable chances. ā
The eyebrows were raised, the blue eyes were as hesitant as the blue sky, but she couldn't help revealing a trusting gaze, perhaps, she felt that the young man in front of her did not have much reason to deceive herself. Even if all this is too mysterious, since it exists, then naturally it cannot be ignored.
"Then you said that you have seen me and the shadow of the dragon's tooth, which means that the world is not completely isolated from each other, and there is some unknown means of connection. That's why you're so familiar with us?"
"Real is real, fantasy is unreal, do you take your dreams seriously? Maybe that's just my self-satisfied imagination, maybe it's just a story I made up randomly. But what I believe in is how I feel. At this time, the wind seemed to be intoxicating, and the slightly drunk eyes in white glanced at the lady of the wine shop who seemed to have never heard anything, and there was a mysterious smile in her eyes. Of course, he knew that his whereabouts had been monitored all the time, and his identity was not as simple as that of ordinary people.
After all, a shadow is just a shadow, and there will always be a difference between it and reality. But the so-called karma is not really different if it looks different, as long as there is a connection, it will eventually be bound and entangled. Isn't it precisely in this way that the Mandate of Heaven controls all people, so that no one can break free from its shackles?
Although he had never seen the young man in front of him before, when he sat with him like this, Yan He gradually felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity. It's like when and where, she used to wear men's clothes, and then sat and drank with this young man, and more than once.
They had done so many things together, drinking together, laying out together, setting traps together, dealing with tribulations together, these vague but real memories passed through her mind, but they were extremely profound.
The night was getting cooler, and the silent evening breeze suddenly woke up Yanhe, who seemed to be in a deep fog, and she looked at the white clothes who were still pouring themselves in shock, but found that she had some vague memories in her heart inexplicably, like a cause that had not been isolated for several lifetimes.
"I've seen you?" said in doubt, but in the affirmative.
"I'll sit at the same table with you and drink and talk?"
"I trust you so much that I even ć»ć»ć»ć»ć»ć»"
Stopped inexplicably, Yan He's face was slightly red, but it returned to the same as before in an instant. She didn't know what the memories seemed to be awakened all of a sudden, but she was more or less sure of the truth of what the boy had said, at least for now, she was willing to believe him.
"You're really mysterious, but it's a pity, you're about to become the envy of many people. Congratulations. Probably because his mood was too complicated to understand, Yan He casually threw down the wine money, and then got up and left. Before leaving, she still glanced back a little, but found that Bai Yi was still drinking by herself, without the slightest intention of retaining.
"The next time we meet, I will no longer be the Ninth Prince. ā
Hearing the words left by the other party, Bai Yi didn't smile at all, he looked at the sky that was about to fall into the night, looked at the little wine left in the jar, and couldn't help sighing.
"It's a pity that such a good wine was not drunk. ā
Turning over the horse, I watched the lady indifferently clean up the remnants on the table, and the rusty sword in white was unsheathed, staining a piece of flawless moonlight. The moonlight was as clear as water, like a little sorrow on the brow of a beautiful woman, and the wind and smoke swept by, and the table was empty.
"Do you think I'm an immortal or a mortal?"
The eldest lady was finally surprised, because what she saw was not moonlight, but a broken nothingness. The wine jar on the table seemed to be instantly absorbed by a mysterious black gap, and then disappeared into nothingness. She trembled and retreated two or three steps, trying to explain something, but when she looked up, she saw only a figure riding away, like a fairy god.
Bai Yi didn't want to break the contract, since he had agreed with Dragon Tooth to lend him his reputation today as an exchange for the other party's support for Tianyi, he naturally wouldn't hesitate. Moreover, even if those people learned where they came from, what would they be able to do to themselves? Will they really believe what they say?
Quickly whipped to the restaurant indicated on the invitation, Bai Yi dismounted drunkly, looked at the complicated dragon teeth waiting at the door, smiled, then shook his head, and walked in with him. That look, it is estimated that he also knew what he said from those mouths, and the news was really fast enough.
