Chapter 25: Life and Death

The night sinks like water, and the stars dim.

On the cliff of hundreds of zhang, Duan Heng sat quietly, vaguely, as if he was integrated with the entire cliff.

Not far away, Luo Qingli was quiet and independent, with mountain winds blowing, long hair fluttering, and fluttering clothes.

Even though her face can't be seen clearly from a distance, there is still an indescribable elegance in this figure, and the starlight at night constitutes the most beautiful and hazy picture.

Moonlight Tempo, but that's it.

Hundreds of zhang away, Zhou Peng stood silently, looking at the cliff from afar, his expression was quiet, and his eyes were open.

I don't know when, Bai Luoyu, who was dressed in white, approached silently, stopped a foot behind, and sighed faintly: "Why don't you leave?"

Zhou Peng smiled, but he didn't look back, still looking at the high cliff and said: "That's my brother, he said that he only has less than two percent chance of success, that is to say, he will probably die here early tomorrow morning." I know that he has always been indifferent and ruthless, I treat him as a brother and a friend, in fact, I have forced it myself, he may just treat me Zhou Peng as an ordinary friend, never when I am a brother, because no one can be his brother, and he doesn't need to, this is a bastard with a cold nature. But so what?"

"Since I, Zhou Peng, recognize him as a brother, it's not because of how much benefit he can bring me, how much benefit is exchanged? Whether he admits it or not has nothing to do with me, on weekdays, I may not be too lazy to pay attention to him, and even hate him for snatching all the light, but now, I can't watch him wait here for death, and I myself am thousands of miles away to survive, maybe I can't help in the battle tomorrow morning, but at least I can laugh and go to life and death together. Don't ask for his arrogant and indifferent gratitude, because Lao Tzu is never rare. I just want to do one thing with a clear conscience. ”

Speaking of this, Zhou Peng sighed and lowered his voice, "Luo Yu, none of this has anything to do with you." You don't want to go quickly, I was wrong about the previous things, I don't ask for your forgiveness, but I've always liked you really, although I knew from the beginning that this was a **** idea, I'm just a humble commoner, hehe, but it's useless to say this now. Wrong is wrong, don't my Zhou Pengdignified husband even have the courage to admit his mistakes? Luo Yu, take care, don't blame Jiang Yu'er too much, she is also helpless, between life and death, who can see through? Who can be like Lao Duan's bastard, so neatly choose? Compare with him. I'm ashamed of myself. ”

"But, at least a little. Luo Yu, if there is a chance in the future, give me a chance to choose again, I will choose to die calmly, and I will never let you down again. Well, so be it. Good luck. ”

Zhou Peng said softly, his expression was completely relieved, the nightmare that had been making him extremely tormented for the past few months had disappeared at this moment.

Sobbing sounded behind him. Then, a slightly trembling body hugged Zhou Peng tightly.

"I'm sorry, in fact, I'm lying to you, my father has already sent someone to warn me, so I deliberately said in front of Bai Luoyun that you are my fiancΓ©, if there is no sudden catastrophe, then you and I will be like chess pieces, and in turn give my father's competitors a heavy blow, it will be another conspiracy. And even because of this catastrophe, the consequences will not change, if we cross the Cangjiang River smoothly, then on the other side of the Cangjiang River, everyone except me will be killed, my father will not allow anything that can threaten him to exist, I am the same, I am a pawn in his hand, a bait that he deliberately leaked. ”

"So now, we owe each other nothing, okay? We really belong to ourselves, to each other, maybe we will really die tomorrow morning, but I am willing, like you, go to life and death together, and never regret it. ”

――

"It's really numb!"

"Definitely a show-off!"

"Burn the heterosexual. ”

"Wang, the single dog is so pitiful. ”

Farther away, four figures squatted in the grass, staring at the two people who were hugging each other not far away, laughing and scolding in a low voice, only their eyes lit up, and they almost drooled.

"Hey, it's a little bigger. ”

"Angle, pay attention to the angle. ”

"Damn, salty pig's hand, that salty pig's hand, you dare to put it there! ”

"Shhhhh ”

When the angry Zhou Peng rushed over with the shy Bai Luoyu, the four of them fled.

"You four just want to make trouble, don't you, why don't you leave, do you want to die!" Zhou Peng gritted his teeth and roared in a low voice, sister, I finally moved myself once, these bastards actually dared to make trouble.

"Ahem. Zhu Yu straightened his collar, returned to his sanctimonious appearance, and said loudly: "A gentleman has something to do, and he doesn't do something." ”

Lin Yulou next to him shook his head and said, "I know what I can do." ”

Liu Bai continued to puff up his chest and belly, and said with a smile: "I don't do it if I know it's not possible." ”

"It's the way to do and the way to not do a gentleman!" Wu Shaoxiang finally said, but somehow, he said again, "Sister-in-law has a good figure." ”

"Kill you four bastards!" This time, Zhou Peng and Bai Luoyu finally became angry at the same time.

――

On the cliff in the distance, it is still quiet, occasionally, the voice of words under the cliff can be faintly heard, at this moment, it is Luo Qingli, who has always asked himself about his cool temperament and will not be bothered by foreign objects, he can't help but sigh faintly, what a group of fools.

His eyes were faint, and he inadvertently fell on Duan Heng not far away, and his heart couldn't help but be like an ancient well.

She is determined to die, Mochizuki City Kaizhou, almost all the power she can use, the entire Luo family imperial clan has paid a huge price for this, but in the end, it was destroyed in her hands, this heavy price, so that she can no longer find a second way to get rid except death.

On that day, Luo Qingniang used spies to steal her Zhenhai order, so that the water of the three rivers was poured back, and in an instant, the sky collapsed, and she could have relied on Mochizuki City to support and wait for reinforcements, but who would have thought that she would be attacked by Luo Qingniang herself. In order to save her imprisoned mother, she really did anything.

Luo Qingli once thought that she would hate her very much, but now, everything is not important.

That battle almost completely crushed all her own pride, all her self-confidence. and all hope.

Under the cover of her subordinates, she fled all the way to Mochizuki City, and at that time, she had lost the courage to fight back at the end, and even the belief in living.

If it weren't for her extreme disgust with Bing Qianli, she didn't want to die in the water like this, she would have committed suicide a long time ago.

On the way to escape, she, the once noble princess of the imperial patriarch, was humiliated and scolded like a beggar. Mockery, everything, but she just endured it numbly, she didn't want to die in the water, this was her last thought, and she would never admit defeat and give in at this point.

That was the last faith she had struggled to hold.

Until that emotionless, terrifyingly calm voice sounded. That scene, Luo Qingli believes that she will never forget it. That calm face, condescending gaze, this is so familiar.

She has always been on top of her, giving charity to others, but now it is finally her turn?

For a moment, she even thought about dying. Even if she is now extremely down, she will never bow her head and admit defeat and beg for mercy, never!

Then, she found out that she was wrong, and she was simply pulled out of the water. The owner of the voice, the cold, haughty-looking fellow, bared his white teeth and asked her very seriously if she needed to 'send her on her way'?

Although these words are very strange, ordinary people may be annoyed when they hear it.

But she was different, she could hear that it wasn't a joke, it wasn't a joke, it wasn't charity or mercy. It is a kind of respect, respect for the behavior of being seriously injured, dying and still struggling to the death, and never admitting defeat.

She could see from the man's calm eyes that he had a similar past, never admit defeat, never compromise, he must have been like this, even if he was in a desperate situation, he never had any strength to make him succumb, even if the final result would be shattered.

At that moment, she was a little happy, and she thought that it was not bad, it was a kind of happiness to be killed by someone who could fully understand herself and understand why she had to be stupid to persist at the last moment of her life, when the whole world was dark and desperate.

Yes, at the end of her life, she never needs pity, never needs nostalgia, never needs to be sad, she just wants people to know that she will never admit defeat and never compromise, although, she actually doesn't care that anyone knows, but since there can be such a person, a stranger, who can read her own persistence.

Cang Tianzhen treats her well, sometimes the confidant who has been looking for thousands of years but can't meet can meet so easily, although this is the last moment of life.

At that moment, most of her previous obsessions dissipated.

That's why she asked the man for a sip of spirit wine, not that she wanted to drink it, she used to be the princess of the imperial patriarch, what kind of precious spirit wine had she not drunk?

She just wanted to use this way to silently have a drink with him, and then she could die without regrets.

And she knew that he would not refuse, and that he would never pretend to be a mercy.

And so it was, the man was always serious and quiet, though he still had that kind of indifference that rejected people from thousands of miles away.

It wasn't a precious spirit wine, and it could even be described as garbage, but she was still very happy, and drank most of the jar happily.

From beginning to end, the man's gaze was so quiet and indifferent, but it was definitely the warmest gaze that made her feel the most.

Therefore, when that Muzhuang made a bet with him, she temporarily moved and asked for the five-grade cold ice.

Is that piece of five-grade ice important? Garbage, to her, will always be just garbage.

But that man never knew that she had already planned to seal a drop of second-grade imperial essence blood in it at that time, she was already loveless, but she could gain understanding and peace at the last moment of death, and she would not be stingy in returning.

Although that man would never know, there would be an inexplicable woman who inexplicably regarded him as the only confidant in this life.

Doesn't make sense, does it?

As her thoughts flowed, Luo Qingli's eyes were also full of tears, and she didn't expect that all this was not the end.

That stupid man, just incorrigibly stupid.

Don't you understand my insistence, don't you know that when I let go of my obsession, where I die, it no longer matters to me?

Why can't I die with dignity?

I just begged to die, and I couldn't even die, knowing that my identity was dangerous, but I still acted stupidly again and again, and I had to put my life into it to be the end?

Do you not know how great the iniquity I have bore is?

Don't you know that the entire imperial family has abandoned me?

Don't you know that if I don't die, no matter the human race and demon race, they will all be eyeing my imperial bloodline and want to get it as soon as possible?

In the tears, Luo Qingli's gaze fell on Duan Heng's face not far away, that face was not exquisite, without the noble atmosphere of the children of the imperial family, without the gentleness and elegance inherited from the ancient family, without the ferocity and vicissitudes of overcoming thorns and thorns, and without the confidence of strategizing.

But it has its own style, arrogant and indifferent, quiet and calm, like a lonely traveler, living in isolation, the red dust, the world, but also flashy and dreamy.

"Anyway, if you want so, I will follow you, life and death together. ”
