Chapter Forty-Eight: Fearless
In the afternoon, a light rain fell in the sky. www.biquge.info After taking a bath in the room for an hour, Lingyi walked out of the courtyard with an emerald green umbrella. The long hair was not dry, but it was loosely tied behind his head, and his face was moist and pale, like a delicate flower ravaged by a storm. Although the rain was not heavy, there was still a little scattered red on the road. trampling all the way carelessly, she thought faintly in her heart, saying that the flowers bloom and thank you, it is the ruthlessness of heaven, but even if she knows that she will eventually wither, there are still a few delicate and upright branches, just to see a warm sun and spring breeze in this fresh world.
Passing by the gate of the courtyard of the cuttlefish and the squirtle, Lingyi stopped, saw that there was no one on the left and right, and walked in. Su'er was riding the drizzle in the courtyard with a little maid to play with flowers and plants, wearing a purple dress, looking noble and elegant, suddenly raised her head while laughing, and saw Lingyi standing by the courtyard gate with an umbrella, slightly stunned, and then said something to the little maid, and walked over to Lingyi.
"Senior sister, excuse me. ”
This is the first time Lingyi has come to Xu'er's side, if it was usual, she would definitely feel cramped, but not today. She looked at the senior sister in front of her who looked like a noble lady, thinking of being played with and despised, and felt more and more that the other party was so lucky. It was only in this way that she came to her and pinned a ray of hope on her.
Su'er glanced at her and said lightly, "It's going to rain heavily, come in the house." ”
Lingyi didn't say anything, and followed Xu'er into the upper living room. The room was clean and comfortable, the cuttlefish was not there, except for the little maid in the yard, there was only Su'er. Su'er made a pot of tea with her own hands, and the two sat across the table of the Eight Immortals, holding the tea, listening to the gradually dense sound of rain outside the window.
"Senior Brother Bai Ye is dead. Lingyi suddenly spoke, "The senior brothers and sisters who used to go to Sendai are also dead. ”
Su'er seemed to have anticipated her words, and only sighed softly: "I know. ”
"The circle on Dengxian Terrace did not lead to the South Vietnamese Sect at all, they went to a very dark secret room, and everyone died there. ”
Su'er frowned: "How do you know this?"
"Senior Brother Bai Ye is a direct member of the Bai clan in Liaoxi, and he has a family blood card on him, and he gave me the blood card, and sent me the news after ascending to Sendai. ”
Su'er was silent for a long time: "If you do this, Gong Ximing will be noticed." ”
"That's why I came to find Senior Sister. ”
Su'er shook her head: "What's the use of you looking for me? My cultivation is inferior to you in the eyes of Gong Ximing, and it is worse than an ant." I was able to live entirely because of my husband, the cuttlefish, but he couldn't shelter so many people. Over the years, Gongxi Ming's cultivation has increased greatly, and the cuttlefish is no longer his opponent, not to mention that he is also the owner of the city, so it is inconvenient to face each other with swords and guns. ”
"Senior sister, I know that I will die, but I am not sorry to die, how can I wash away the grievances of so many senior brothers and sisters? I was killed by Gong Ximing in vain? There are so many junior brothers and sisters below, since they already know that Dengxiantai is a killing field, do they still want to watch them go to death? Mo led the army seven years ago to be able to balance Gong Ximing, and now there is a wild sand camp in hand, how can it not shelter?" Lingyi said that the more excited she became, she suddenly stood up, and knelt down to Xu'er across the Eight Immortals Table with a plop, crying: "Senior sister! Lingyi, please, save everyone!"
This sudden kneeling took Su'er by surprise, and she quickly got up and came over to help her up, but there was a thin layer of frost on her face, and she said a little unhappily: "Why do you want to do this? The cuttlefish has his own things to do, not to mention that he is powerless, even if he has this ability, he can't fight hard for the foundation of the true disciple." ”
As she spoke, she sighed again: "Those of us who are born without the life of cultivation, it is good to be mortals, but we complain about the injustice of the heavens and want to be human beings." If you want to be a master, you just want to take shortcuts, just thinking that you can become an immortal once you are enlightened. This is nothing, everyone wants to pursue a happier and more leisurely life, but once they become cultivators, what do they do? When they turn around, they oppress mortals, take revenge, complain, blackmail and blackmail those who have no grudges, and some go to serve the powerful, take advantage of the situation to rise to power, and do not hesitate to sell their lust and corrupt their virtues. It's all like that, what's the use of saving them?"
Lingyi was innuendoly reprimanded by Su'er, her face was red and white, and she couldn't help but ask in a trembling voice: "What about Senior Sister? Senior Sister is not practicing for hatred, not for being a master, not for serving the powerful, what is it for?"
"For my husband. In the sound of the rushing rain, Su'er's voice was extremely light but firm, "I came to practice just to be qualified to love him." As she spoke, she turned her back and looked at the rain curtain outside the window and slowly let out a sigh, "Later, he told me that he doesn't need to practice, and I have the qualifications to love him." It's a pity that I can no longer erase the imprint of the Conversion Sect, he tried many methods, but he couldn't do it. I don't want to be such a practitioner, but I can't go back. ”
There was a hint of sentimentality in Su'er's voice, like a little chill soaked in the window curtains on this rainy day. Lingyi listened, the shame and excitement just now couldn't help but fade a little, thinking that this is the case, the senior sister who is dedicated to practicing for love can be described as a strange woman, and the Mo leader who does not look down on mortals and does not dislike the disciples of the true is even more a great man, if I can also meet such a person...... She suddenly remembered Senior Brother Bai Ye, who died for her, who had been in the same family for many years, how could she have taken him to heart?
I only heard Su'er continue: "If you can't erase the mark of returning to the truth, you are the hands of people who will manipulate your life." Gong Ximing didn't move me, why didn't he want to borrow me to hold the cuttlefish hostage? You just think that Gong Ximing didn't dare to provoke the crazy sand camp, but you didn't know that he had my hole card, so he seemed calm. If I live, he will always have the upper hand. ”
Speaking of this, Su'er smiled bitterly: "Senior sister, now you should understand that it's not that I don't want to help you, it's that I really can't help you." How could I have thought that I would become the greatest burden to my lover? We have all strayed into the trap, both blinded by desperate desires, and we will all pay the price. I have already realized that if one day my husband does not want to be restrained anymore, and Gong Ximing does not kill me, I do not want to live again. ”
Lingyi bit her lip and gave a deep salute to Su'er: "Senior sister, I'm sorry. ”
After a while, Lingyi walked into the rain again with an umbrella, and Su'er stood under the eaves, watching her go all the way through the Xiaoxiao rain curtain, and suddenly turned to the little maid Qi'er and said, "I'm going to the third lady of the Hou Mansion." ”
Qi'er said: "I only went last night, and if I go again today, the master will be unhappy." There are too many people over there, and I'm afraid that the city lord will be suspicious of the lord and the lady. ”
Su'er groaned for a moment, looked at Lingyi's already blurred back, and sighed softly: "Forget it." It shouldn't be any more trouble for the lady and the young master. ”
Lingyi got out of Xu'er's courtyard, and kept going out of the mansion, thinking that there was no way back, and now, only to find He Xiaotong and the prince to fight for this last ray of life. She didn't want to survive, just to avenge Senior Brother Bai Ye. When you think about it like this, you have no worries or fears in your heart. In fact, the hope is extremely slim, she doesn't think that if you eat something once, there is a reason for others to be born and die for herself, even if she can, He Xiaotong's cultivation may not be enough, and she doesn't think that the third prince will help her for no reason. As Su'er said, others have things to do with others, and the three princes must have come from afar for the sake of a mirage, and it is unlikely that they will have a branch because of themselves. But you have to give it a try.
The sky was as dark as night, the rain was grounded, there were almost no pedestrians on the street, and the slender figure under the green umbrella slowly passed through the long street, and finally disappeared at the door of the Beidou Pavilion.
Ji Xingkong was pretending to take stock of the goods in the pavilion, pointing fingers at the two guys. Because of the rain, the store was so quiet that there was not a single customer, Gu Lewen was called by the owner of the teahouse next door to eat tea and enjoy the rain, and His Royal Highness became a temporary head of the family. After being extremely bored and ordered the two men to re-count the goods twice, he sat down on the chair, shook the folding fan and crossed Erlang's legs, and called the guys to him: "I ask you, do you know why you are good at business?...... When a guest comes, he will not be allowed to go out vertically if he does not buy anything. Look at the little boss opposite, his face is dark, his waist is crossed, he is carrying a whip and leading the dog, which is very scary! How can people buy our stuff?"
The two guys were like two puppies, nodding their heads and saying yes, but they slandered in their hearts: Where is the little boss on the other side? Looking at what a hearty and lively little girl, her face is a little darker, but it is not scary, just the little milk dog behind her, you let go of your hand and let it bite it, you will think you are sloppy, who will be afraid of it?
In the middle of the belly, the door curtain moved, and someone walked into the store with an umbrella. Ji Xingkong immediately squeezed his eyes: "Do you know what to do?"
"Yes!" "Yes!" the two men answered, and stepped forward with a bitter gourd face.
As soon as the green umbrella was collected, a beautiful woman under the umbrella appeared. The two men looked at each other, and really didn't know how to make their faces scary, so they each cleared their throats, and without speaking, they first squeezed their eyebrows and changed their faces a few times, which really startled the girl. The girl held the umbrella and looked at the two strange-looking guys in front of her in a daze, a little unsure of what to do. The two guys finally changed their tones and opened their mouths: "Girl......" Before the words were finished, they were slapped to both sides by two fans: "How can you talk?
The two guys covered their faces and looked at each other, pouted in unison, and bit each other's ears: "Cheap!" "Well, it's too cheap!"
The girl looked at Ji Xingkong, looked at it carefully, and asked, "Is He Xiaotong here?" The voice was slender and pleasant, like a yellow warbler's low chirp.
Ji Xingkong was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself how could this person know He Xiaotong? and looked at the other party twice, quite a beautiful girl, but I don't remember where I saw it. So he shook his fan and said with a smile: "He Xiaotong, uh, I'm going out to buy candy, and I'll be back in a while." "Actually, I haven't seen anyone since yesterday, but he's happy to be quiet.
The girl asked, "Can I wait for her?"
"Of course you can, girl, please upstairs!" Ji Xingkong waved his fan and happily invited the girl upstairs. As soon as he turned around, he saw the two guys muttering there again, and immediately glared at him and said, "You two, count the goods twice!"
The two guys said "um" and "hey", and went to the shelves with a bitter gourd face, and Ji Xingkong led the girl up to the second floor. The second floor is a place to rest and live, with a living room and a bedroom. The girl went upstairs and looked around, and walked straight to Ji Xingkong's bedroom. Ji Xingkong is not a restrained person, so he should lead the girl to visit each room. On this lonely rainy day, having a beautiful woman with you is better than having two guys there and laughing boringly. The folding fan in his hand shook gently, and he bragged wildly. Just as soon as she entered the door, the girl turned around, a light green gauze skirt suddenly fell off the ground, and her long hair was like a cloud, showing a concave and convex female body, warm and fragrant, and breathtaking.
