Chapter 69: Around the Moon
It was night, Zi Ning was lying on the bed of the gauze tent on her side, and her eyes swept away from the window lattice. The moonlight was like water, quietly sprinkled under the dense eaves, reflecting the branches swaying in the breeze, bright and shining.
The dormitory of Kunlun Wonderland is different from the Taoist clan, the high eaves and blue tiles, the palace is stacked and scattered, there is a sense of majestic and rugged, and it is a dream-like haze as far as the eye can see. Under the moonlight, there were fluttering fairy spirits, and the more I looked at it, the more abrupt it became.
Zining has been coming to Kunlun these days, and there is always a feeling of unsteadiness in my heart. She is a mortal woman, she is not worthy of stepping into the holy land of the immortal clan, sometimes she really wants to hide in the Qingxu Valley realm, and she will never come out.
The lake in my heart was rippled by my thoughts, and I couldn't calm down, and I was a little worried.
Han Yingbai said that the Emperor had been imprisoned, why was that? What happened in the days when she was unconscious. She didn't know anything about it, but she was faintly aware of Yue Hengtang's attitude, he was forbearing, he was waiting for an opportunity, he sent a Sumeru world to her, as if he wanted to prepare for an eternal farewell.
Zi Ning's heart was so anxious that she couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning, she took a deep breath and muttered to herself, "I must ask clearly." ”
She desperately knew everything he thought, even if she couldn't hide the secret of the crossing. Most importantly, she had to determine who he really liked. Is it Xi'er, Zining, or she who has crossed the immortal realm?
got up and pulled up his long black hair, and casually draped a satin purple deep brocade robe, the fabric of which was smooth and soft, touching the skin, with a trace of water-like coolness.
The moonlight outside the hall became brighter and brighter, and a piece of silver light sprinkled on her, making her slender figure graceful and moving.
The glazed palace lamp under the eaves of the dormitory swayed, Zi Ning pulled the scattered long hair behind her ears, raised her hand to tighten the collar, turned around from the corridor of the side hall, and walked slowly towards the main hall. The road was silent, like a night epiphany with a dark fragrance.
Before walking to the main hall, I suddenly heard a faint sound of the piano, as if the strings were plucked at will, and the quiet sound was endless.
Zi Ning hurriedly walked a few steps, came to the edge of the vermilion lacquer pillar outside the hall, and stretched out his head to look into the hall. I saw two wide hall doors open, and Yue Hengtang sat quietly at the desk, bowing his head and eyebrows, raising his fingers to caress the strings.
Strings of glazed lamps were hung in the hall, and the moonlight was projected on the dark green jade ground, sprinkling a piece of brilliant light and shadow.
In the middle of light and shadow, a girl in white danced with long sleeves, her face was as delicate as a flower, and her fairy posture was graceful. The eyes are beautiful and moving, one foot is flying in the air, the wide sleeves are stretched, light and dexterous, and the body is fluttering like a fairy.
"Jingxiao?" Zi Ning was stunned in her heart, under the shadow of the moon in the middle of the night, Jingxiao actually came to the main hall of the Moon Hengtang to dance with music.
I saw Jing Xiao suddenly spin his body, the white clothes were graceful, the shadow of the satin clothes reflected the glazed light, and the shining silver white light was emitted all over the body, and the sleeves opened and closed, falling suddenly.
Donglin, dressed in green clothes, stood beside the desk, staring at Jingxiao with a light and picturesque gaze, and clapped his hands and said: "I haven't seen you dance for a long time, I can't imagine that the dance posture has improved to such a point. ”
Bai Qiu grabbed Tanglin's shoulders with two small paws, and a pair of small eyes stared at Jing Xiao, full of hostility, and reluctantly chirped: "Brother, I can also dance, I can also dance, you look at me dancing." ”
The white fluffy wings flapped up, twisted his little body, and flew like lightning to Qi Song at the other end of the desk, holding his stomach and cooing: "I dance the best, the dance is beautiful, only the white ball!"
Qi Song narrowed his eyes and smiled: "You are not a beauty, who wants to watch you dance?" He hugged the white ball in front of him, shook his sleeve and took out a sunflower flower for it. The little eyes of the white ball lit up, and he swallowed half of it, and said with a sigh: "I won't finish it, keep it for Xi'er to eat." ”
Holding half a sunflower flower in his two paws, he flew to Tanglin's shoulders with a "whirl", jumped twice happily, and laughed happily. Half of the night folded his wings, curled up in the hem of his coat and fell into a deep sleep.
In the placket of the green coat of Tanglin, half a yellow and gorgeous sunflower is inserted.
Yue Hengtang's eyes were indifferent, he smiled silently, and the name of "Xi'er" was said in Baiqiu's mouth, making him feel as if he had returned to 100,000 years ago in an instant.
The sound of the piano does not stop, the fingers pluck the strings, and the music is soothing and long. One of his hearts fluttered with the music of the piano, and a light purple shadow appeared in his mind.
Xi'er in the past, and Zining now, is a cinnabar mole in his heart, and his eyes are red.
Tanglin lowered his head and looked at the sunflower in front of him in a daze, and a faint sourness floated in his heart. The white ball remembers its owner, Xi'er, Xi'er remembers her beloved Yue'er, and Yueying remembers Xi'er, whom he has lost. But everyone, has forgotten about the Witch King.
What was missed in 100,000 years, is now missed again.
A faint painful crack spread out from the bottom of his heart, if there were another 100,000 years, would he still miss it?
Jing Xiao looked delicate, the white shirt moved slowly, and she walked to the desk, opened her lips, and said shyly: "This dance is called 'Moon Shadow Lingxiao', dancing under the moonlight, it is even more graceful and elegant. I've been practicing for two years, thinking that one day I'll show you. The eyes contain a shallow and traceless tenderness and honey, like two waves swaying, which is intoxicating.
"Jingxiao, it's late at night—" Yue Hengtang said lightly, a pair of clear eyes raised, looking at her squarely, his eyes were crystal clear, leaving no fetters.
The sadness in Jingxiao's eyes flashed, and he stood quietly, his long eyelashes fluttering twice, "Hengtang, don't drive me away." ”
Her eyes swept to the satin red sandalwood broken line piano, and said in a quiet voice: "I don't want anything else, I just want to be a quiet and elegant Lingxiao flower under the moon, climbing the moonlight, blooming silently." If I leave Kunlun, I will no longer be Jingxiao, and if I leave the moonlight, the Lingxiao flowers will also wither and scatter. ”
She didn't want much, it was nothing more than a hint of his concern. A lake of mirror water in his bright eyes was flickering, as if containing bitter tears, "Why is it so difficult, you don't have any affection for me?"
More than ten years ago, when she first arrived in Kunlun Wonderland, it was the white pear blossoms full of trees. That night, for the first time in her life, she heard the rain hitting the pear blossoms, and the sound of the plucking was like a faintly plucked piano sound.
The little girl, with her shoulders slightly shrugged, snuggled weakly beside the couch table, watching the green smoke in the incense burner curl up, instantly drifting away without a shadow, hidden in the slightly cold air.
At that time, the young man in white sat on the ground, with handsome eyebrows and a faint smile. Fingers plucked the strings, singing sonorously in the sound of night rain: "Feeling the world is far away, and the beauty is sad." The rain falls and the day is misty, and the silence is really beautiful. Tongyin is drunk slowly, the sound is like a forest of gold and stones, looking at the clouds and ethereal, cutting off the view of the end of the world. ”
When the singing stopped, the little girl pursed her thin lips, and the child's voice asked timidly, "Are you singing......?" What does it mean to meet a beautiful woman. Am I a beautiful woman, and are you sad when you see me?"
The young man in white smiled lightly, "A beautiful woman is like a quiet and wonderful Feihong, graceful and affectionate, you are still young, and you may be a beautiful woman when you grow up." ”
The little girl felt deeply wronged, blinked her big bright eyes, and seemed to be about to cry, "I will grow up soon, I want to be the first beauty of the immortal clan." ”
With a roll of his eyes, cold tears rolled down, "Why do you want to sing the ethereal clouds, why do you want to break away from the end of the world?
The white-clothed young man had a pair of clear eyes and said with a smile: "If you become the first beauty of the immortal clan, I will be a vulgar and filthy body." Graceful and colorful, elegant and not as quiet as the sky; mediocre and vulgar, big foolish as Hengtang. You and I are not a good match. ”
He raised his hand and flicked the strings lightly, "My pair of red sandalwood broken lines only uses ice silk strings, and when you learn to play the piano in the future, you must use the best spider silk strings." ”
The little girl thought so, nodded and said, "I am the first beauty of the immortal clan, and I only use superb spider silk strings for the rest of my life." If you are a mediocre person, you really don't deserve me. ”
After many years, Jingxiao still remembers that night, he said that she would eventually grow up and become the first beauty of the fairy clan, beautiful and beautiful, elegant and exquisite.
A little tear shook in her eyes, and she cried sadly, "Now I know that it is the spider silk strings that are not worthy of the red sandalwood broken pattern piano." It turned out that the rain hit the pear blossoms that night, it was all my mistake, thinking that a dream could come true, but I didn't know that the sound of Tongzi was a drunken beauty. ”
Yue Hengtang sighed faintly, "Jingxiao, my red sandalwood broken pattern piano is used to using ice silk strings. Although the spider silk string is a masterpiece, I have a connection with it, and all the red dreams are dyed gray like the end of the world. ”
Jingxiao's lips trembled slightly, and a touch of sadness deepened in her eyes, "Is it true, the end of the world is dyed gray." Ten years of affection between you and me, ten years of longing, have all been cut off, and all of them have turned into ashes?"
Although he is a peerless emperor and is high, how can he be so ruthless to her. She is Jingxiao, the first beauty of the fairy clan.
A trace of unbearability flashed in Tanglin's eyes, and he sighed softly, "Jingxiao, why do you have to be like this." There are many talented and handsome people in the immortal clan, and everyone admires the first goddess of Danxue Mountain, and you will always find someone you really love. Although the elders of the Immortal Clan arrange a marriage for you, if you refuse to marry Kunlun, they will not force you-"
Jingxiao suddenly became emotional, her body swayed, her steps staggered, and her hands were on the piano, "What I want to do in my life is to marry Kunlun, be in harmony with my beloved Qinse, and never give up." Now it's not them who force me, but I force Yue Hengtang!"
A trembling gaze stared at Yue Hengtang, "You said that the beauty is like a quiet and wonderful Feihong, graceful and affectionate, I only want to be a beautiful woman in your heart for this sentence, never give up, never regret it!"
Her eyes rippled with tears, her delicate body suddenly stood up, and she exclaimed sadly, "Hengtang!" and couldn't help but fall into his arms.
"Jingxiao girl-" Qi Song's eyes were quick, and he stopped in front of Yue Hengtang with an arrow step, and said with a solemn expression: "The absolute emperor can't get close, please respect herself." ”
He stayed by Yue Hengtang's side, always on guard against these amorous women. Fortunately, his sharp eyes were one step faster, otherwise Jingxiao would have thrown herself into the arms of the Absolute Emperor, and Zi Ning would have suffered.
The Five Elements Qilin Beast will never forget Zining's mercy.
Jing Xiao's expression trembled, and she suddenly complained, and her beautiful cheeks turned pale and colorless in an instant.
Zi Ning had been standing by the pillar outside the hall, her shoe uppers were wet with cold dew, and her mood fluctuated. She really didn't want to see such a poignant and lingering scene.
Secretly determined, raised his hand to lift the corner of his skirt, slowly stepped over the high threshold, and entered the hall.
The glass light and shadow reflected on her, emitting bunches of purple dazzling faint light.
"Zining?" Tanglin snorted softly, seeing that her long hair was shiny, she pulled a slanted bun at will, her eyebrows and eyes were plain, like a water purification hibiscus, peerless, beautiful and natural.
Jing Xiao's satin white clothes shook, turned around suddenly, and a pair of sad eyes glared at Zi Ning.
Zi Ning silently walked forward, one step away from her, and stood looking at each other.
One white and one purple, beautiful and graceful, peerless beauty, complementing each other.
Jingxiao raised his sleeve to wipe away a tear stain, choked in his throat for a moment, his eyes were full of hostility, and said sharply: "Tonight is the meeting of the three of us, why are you coming? It's not enough to seduce Hengtang, do you want to stick to him day and night?"
Zi Ning's gaze slowly moved away and drifted outside the temple gate, "Jingxiao, you see that the moonlight is beautiful tonight, but can you catch it?" raised his hand and stretched out to the moonlight that was sprinkled all over the ground, grabbed a handful, unfolded his palm, and the bright light and shadow fell on the palm of his hand, but he couldn't grasp it.
Jingxiao looked dazed, as if she didn't understand what she meant.
"You want to be a flower under the moon, you can only climb and be born, bloom under the moon, but you can't keep the moonlight. It's better to let go of your hand, he will be the moon in the clouds, and you will be the flower in the fog in the valley. Let the moonlight shine, the flowers bloom brightly, look at each other from afar, and pity the shadow. Zi Ning's voice was light and euphemistic, she didn't hate Jingxiao, she only felt that the infatuated woman was the most pitiful.
They have the affection of childhood sweethearts, and the moon pond is not too much water, and they can't forget their feelings. But if Jingxiao refuses to let go, in the end I am afraid that it will be a false dream, the moon in the water, the flower in the mirror, there is no fate, and they are separated from each other.
Jingxiao's mood fluctuated and asked, "Why don't you let go, you have to fight with me." I have known Hengtang for more than ten years, but I can't make a promise for a lifetime. You've only known each other for a few months, can you get along affectionately!"
Zi Ning smiled faintly, "We are affectionate and affectionate, so what's the difficulty? I just be a light cloud next to the moon shadow, the clouds fly and roll in the twilight, and follow the moon phase." He is the moon in the clouds, I am the cloud in the moon, and the life and the world are not separated. ”
"What clouds fly and roll around the moon, I don't want to hear this! The moon is the moon, the clouds are clouds, and it is not a good match if you have to stay together. Jingxiao had tears in her eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "Hengtang has always thought about Xi'er in his heart, what he really likes is Xi'er, what are you proud of, it's just Xi'er's shadow!"
Zi Ning's eyes revealed a trace of pity, and said lightly: "Being in the two compartments, people are in double shadows." I am Xi'er's body, Xi'er is my shadow, what is the difference between Xi'er and me? If Brother Tang thinks of Xi'er in his heart, he will reject you even more. Otherwise, you stand in the figure of Xi'er, silently, without the past, without the future, and then disappear in the same place. ”
Zi Ning's voice was flat and ethereal, and she slowly approached her, "Jingxiao, if there is no Brother Tang, you are yourself." Lingxiao flowers are not stained with moonlight, and they can bloom the same. ”
She looked at Jingxiao closely, and her expression naturally revealed a sense of the nobility and loneliness of the fairy goddess. There seems to be an impenetrable veil between the two, and although they are not far apart, they can't get close easily.
The sentimentality in Jingxiao's heart was even worse, and she said angrily: "You have got what you want, and in your eyes, I am a humble and poor person." Her sad eyes turned around her, and she instantly became ruthless and desireless, like looking at a reflection in a mirror.
Zi Ning looked at her quietly, her expression neither humble nor arrogant.
After a while, Jingxiao breathed a sigh of relief, "I know, just because Hengtang once saved you, you want to be happy with him, stay together, affectionate couple, and reluctant to leave." But this is all your own longing and reverie, Hengtang is the god of the immortal clan, even if there is no me, there are still many women waiting to be fairy concubines. You are a mortal woman, why are you confident that he has always liked you?"
Her words were abrupt, but the words were concise and clear, and Zi Ning couldn't avoid them.
Zi Ning sighed, lowered her head, and said slowly: "I don't have confidence that Brother Tang has always liked me, but it doesn't matter. Because I am myself, no matter whether there is a moon Hengtang or not, Zining will always be Zining. The sea is not destroyed by the mountains, and the grass is not born for the spring breeze, this is the difference between me and you. ”
A piece of glass light and shadow fell on the desk, Yue Hengtang turned his head to look at Dongling, the two glanced at each other, and their eyes showed approval.
As soon as Dongling's divine sense was released, he threw himself into Yuehengtang, "Jingxiao has few opponents in his life, and when he met Zining, he lost tonight." ”
Yue Hengtang lowered his brows, pondered for a moment, and sighed with his divine sense: "The two girls are powerful, and the men in the Immortal Dao Realm are about to lose their color suddenly." ”
Suddenly, I heard Zi Ning laugh and said: "Jingxiao, you are as tender as water, and you are outstanding." When you know how to let go, you will find that in addition to a big tree, there is a whole forest in the world. ”
Yue Hengtang's expression on his face stiffened slightly, the corners of Dongling's mouth tightened, and his divine sense floated over, "Yue Hengtang, what do you mean by Zining, in addition to your big tree, there is also a forest?"
A flash of brilliance flashed in his clear eyes, and Tanglin's heart moved, maybe the forest that Zi Ning said also included her little brother Mu.
Yue Hengtang pursed the corners of his mouth, and replied with his divine sense: "Zi Ning means that I am the only big tree, and for the sake of this big tree, she can give up the entire forest!"
Jingxiao shook his head again and again, put his hands on his ears, and screamed, "Don't, I don't want to let go." You don't know, Hengtang likes white clothes, just to match me. Because I have loved white since I was a child, white pear blossoms, and white brocade, he is all for me-"
Yue Hengtang was silent for a long time, got up gently, walked slowly to Zi Ning's side, and raised his arm to wrap his arms around her shoulders.
Her delicate shadow was wrapped in purple silky brocade, and his white body inlaid with gold was like the glow of a jade tree, which was extremely beautiful.
"Jingxiao, I have no guesses with you, just like relatives. Yue Hengtang's eyes were clear and firm, and he said lightly: "But you also know that pear blossoms have never been my love." The white light of my body is not worthy of plain brocade, but I ask for purple clothes. If you are willing to forget, the sky is high and the earth is wide, and you can be at ease. ”
