Nan Chan

"I have many brothers, but I seldom have such long talks." Jing Lin looked at Cang Ji, like a child seeing honey.

"I have many brothers, but this is the only one who is so close." Cang Ji saw Jinglin's fair fingers holding his hand. Those fingers were slender and beautiful, like porcelain and jade, and they were always tempting to hold. Carefully play with the palm.His pity was out of control, and when he looked at Jinglin again, he cherished him even more, thinking that he was young.

He is indeed small.

Cang Ji thought.

He is many years younger than me, many times smaller than me.I can hold him in the palm of my hand, I can also hold him in my arms, and I can even leave all my chest and abdomen to him, for him to show his childishness unscrupulously under my hard armor and scales.

Jing Lin felt that Cang Ji was unusually hot, so he couldn't help but calm down a little, and said: "At this moment, when the autumn rain and cold are coming, my brother has just recovered from a minor illness, and it is not easy to catch the cold."

Cang Ji had arms of a wolf and a waist of a wolf, and the scars on his back shoulders were exposed when he was wearing clothes with his back.Jing Lin's eyes moved, and he saw that the scar was not a sword, but a scratch.Jing Lin suspected that he had made a mistake, so he leaned over slightly, and saw in the swaying flames that the wound was really someone's scratch, scratches on Cang Ji's shoulders in different shades, and stretched all the way to his shoulder.

"Have you had any disputes with anyone in recent days?" Jing Lin asked.

Cang Ji was pulling up his jacket to block the traces.He was wearing a belt, looked back at Jing Lin, and suddenly laughed out of his lips.

"This injury is early, keep it."

Jing Lin turned back straight, so it was inconvenient to ask again.

Cang Ji said, "Are you curious?"

Jing Lin grabbed the inner layer of his sleeves and nodded invisibly.

Cang Ji quickly put on his clothes, squatted down and waved to Jing Lin.Jing Lin leaned over, Cang Ji leaned over, and whispered in his ear: "This is..." He suddenly changed the topic, "Forget it, I will tell you when you are older."

After finishing speaking, he ignored Jing Lin's gaze, lay down with his arms on his pillow, closed his eyes and rested.Jing Lin stayed for a long while, then looked at Cang Ji, who was already in a deep sleep.The stone climbed out from Cang Ji's chest, sat cross-legged on his chest, propped his head with one hand, and looked at him with dark eyes.

Jing Lin sleeps in the rain, the fire has been extinguished, only the sound of Cang Ji's breathing remains.Jing Lin's mind gradually sank, the pharynx in his chest swirled in the void, and he went down to the vast and silent spiritual sea.He has already cultivated to the front of the Realm of Realm, and with one more step, he will be able to cross into the Realm of Perfection. From then on, he will be able to control the wind without breaking the grain, or cover the rain with his sleeves.It's just that the door has not been opened for a long time, and he has been trapped here for a long time.

While he was meditating, a strange aura suddenly rose from under the spiritual sea, and scattered in the spiritual sea, even Jing Lin couldn't find it.This aura was faintly powerful, and it was like listening to a dragon's chant while swimming, and it was always tightly around his lower abdomen.Jing Lin went to investigate carefully, and found that his spiritual sea had been damaged at some point. After being recuperated by this breath, the defect had been healed, and he didn't notice it at all.

Jing Lin opened his eyes immediately, and put his palms on his abdomen.The spiritual sea was calm and calm, as if nothing had happened.The more Jing Lin thought about it, the worse it became. When did he receive such help from others?He didn't remember the slightest bit.The aura scattered and gathered, gathered and scattered, it had already fused together in his body, it was not only thick and powerful, but also extremely hot, which made the throat spring vibrate with a "hum".Jing Lin had a premonition in an instant that the time to cross the border was approaching, but he couldn't open the opportunity no matter what.

Jing Lin sat for the whole night, until the clouds and rain outside the cave faded away, and the inside of the cave was illuminated slightly brighter before he breathed a sigh of relief and stood up.Cang Ji woke up early, and was returning from outside with Shi Shi, who was still sleeping deeply, and picked up a few persimmons for Jing Lin to eat.The two of them didn't stay long, and followed the mountain road straight to Xuanyang City.

Xuanyang City is backed by mountains and facing the West River in front. Jiutianmen set up three heavy gates here, and engraved spiritual talismans on the walls of the city, making the city indestructible and has never been invaded by the sea of ​​blood and evil spirits.Before the Seven Towns and Twin Cities were broken, it was still known as the hinterland of the south. Now that Jinglin came here on horseback, he saw that the people in the city had migrated to the north with their families.The original bustling estuary was completely abandoned, rows of rowing boats were abandoned on the river surface, the waterway had been blocked by the sea of ​​blood, and the boats were absolutely useless.

There is also a Lingtian Pagoda built in this city, under which is the great demon Shuran.Shuran used to be a Buddha beast in the south, who lived in the mud of the lotus pond all the year round, and his sound could mobilize the water in the world. Later, Dongjun stepped into the realm of the Buddhist altar, and his ferocity alarmed Shuran. He destroyed his original mind, abandoned the Buddha's voice from then on, ran out to do evil, and caused floods in the south.The first thing Dongjun did when he returned to the righteous way was to kick him into Xuanyang City and smash him out of the tower so that he could not move for a hundred years.

After Jinglin entered the city, he went straight to the Lingtian Pagoda. He was relieved when he saw that the tower was solid and the seal was intact.

Cang Ji looked around the Lingtian Pagoda on horseback, and said, "This seal pattern is rare, is it also drawn by Dongjun?"

"Dongjun is impatient with brush and ink. This is painted by my father." Seeing that the cinnabar was as new as new, Jing Lin said, "The iron hook on the pressure tower was forged by Lan Hai, and it cannot be broken easily."

"What is the origin of Lord Jiutian?" Cang Ji touched the cinnabar, "There are different opinions about him, and it's hard to tell whether it's true or false."

"Father was born in Nanjinhai. What happened when he was young is too long to be traced. It's just that after my father's cultivation reached the peak, he crossed the middle with his sword. He saw a lot of suffering and determined to practice the way of heaven. When the sea of ​​blood poured out, he founded Afterwards, Jiutianmen recruited more disciples, and it was really not easy to build this grand scene." Jing Lin paused, and said, "Father is strict, but he disciplines himself and others, and he sets an example in many things. When Brother Tao worshiped under the gate, there was a famine in the east. , my father sent me to deliver food overnight, and I have abstained from feasting in the courtyard, and I have been a vegetarian ever since."

"This is really admirable." Cang Ji answered, and asked again, "It's rare to see Lord Jiutian go out in recent years. I don't know how he is?"

"Sometimes I feel sick, mostly caused by melancholy." Jing Lin dismounted, led the horse along the street, and said, "But my father has practiced hard for several years, and now his cultivation is hard to know. In recent years, it has become more and more powerful. Before, I could still If you can see through a little bit, you can't see even half of it right now."

Cang Ji's heart sank slightly, and he smiled again: "Jiu Tianjun is so cultivated that he can't deal with the sea of ​​blood, it can be seen that the situation has gradually reached a desperate situation."

"Things haven't gone that bad yet." Jing Lin said, "The Canglong will definitely be the key."

"But what if Lord Jiutian not only refuses, but also wants to kill Canglong?" Cang Ji said, "The friction in the north is getting deeper, and I think both sides have endured it for a long time."

Jing Lin took a few steps and said: "Even if Canglong doesn't form an alliance with us, he hasn't done anything bad after all. He has a heart for the common people when he builds canals and diverts the sea. It's fine if father doesn't conspire with him. How could he kill him?"

Cang Ji said leisurely: "Not sure."

Jing Lin said: "If there is such a day, I will definitely not let him die. His life depends on the world, and only he can break through the bloody disaster. No matter what, he can't die."

"If you protect him to this extent, you will definitely arouse suspicion from your brothers and blame him from your father. You have never met him before, even if you want to help him, you must be careful." Cang Ji said in a serious tone, "Jing Lin, a bad person in this world There are good people around you, and there are very few people in the same way, so it is not worth risking your life for it. Besides, this emperor...he is suspicious, cunning and evil, and he is extremely vigilant. If you meet him one day, Maybe he hates it too much. He may not be grateful to Dade for risking his life for this. Why bother?"

Cang Ji took Jing Lin's reins, and he tied the horse to the post together.Seeing this, Jing Lin followed Cang Ji slowly, hesitantly said: "...he is not so bad..."

"Hey." Cang Ji washed his hands on the water altar in front of the inn without raising his head and said, "It's not that you said that he was very rampant, and that he returned his wives and concubines in groups to be annoying."

Jing Lin followed suit, saying: "...the rumors should not be taken seriously."

"Then you still hate him." Cang Ji dripped water between his fingers, asked Shi Shi to take out a handkerchief from his sleeve to help him wipe it, and said, "Speaking of which, I don't like this person either."

"Why?"

"Because I heard that he was quite handsome." Cang Ji said.

Jing Lin said: "Quite handsome?"

Cang Ji touched his face, and said to Jing Lin: "You are more handsome than me, then I can't bear it."

Jing Lin said: "The skin is all illusory, he was originally a dragon, you are different."

"Since turning into a human being, you are surrounded by beauty and ugliness. Everyone is beautiful. It's like I look at you." Cang Ji tilted his head slightly, and looked at Jing Lin a little closer, with a slight frown between his brows.

Jing Lin said: "Huh?"

"I see you," Cang Ji suddenly raised Jing Lin's chin, and said with concentration, "Well...our Jing Lin..."

Jing Lin looked at him quietly.

Cang Ji's throat slipped lightly, and said: "...it will kill you."

"Is it so scary? Although I noticed it in the past, no one told me directly." Jing Lin rubbed his cheek with the back of his hand and said, "One time when I was catching a monster, my shadow was thrown into the water, and my face was exposed, and the other party cried. More than that, she said that she would never run away again. I suspected that she was a false surrender, but unexpectedly she really followed me. Now that I think about it, I should be afraid."

Cang Ji said: "Have you never looked in the mirror?"

Jing Lin said: "All skins are the same in the world, and the one in the mirror is not me."

Cang Ji asked again: "Then who do you think looks better, Dong Jun?"

"Dongjun is very good-looking when he is a human being." Jing Lin said after a while, "You are also very good-looking."

After finishing speaking, he broke free from Cang Ji's hand, turned around and entered the curtain.Cang Ji stayed where he was, still touching his face, thinking that this face could at most be called "Zhou Zheng", how could it compare to his original appearance?He also thought that Jing Lin must be comforting himself, Jing Lin doesn't even think he is beautiful, how can he know what beauty and ugliness are?

Cang Ji stood at the door for a long while, disturbed by what he said, and before turning around, he took another photo of the water altar, and then stepped into the door, squeezed behind Jing Lin and went upstairs together.

Jing Lin will patrol the city at night to strengthen the talismans for the four walls.There are only 50 guards in Xuanyang City, but all of them are masters of Linghai, and they greeted Jinglin long before he left the house.When Jing Lin left, he saw that the candles next door had already been extinguished, and thought that it was time for Cang Ji to sleep, so he went downstairs.

The disciples of Jiutianmen waited for a long time, when they saw the white robe flashing out, they were all happy and determined.They are familiar with Lord Linsong's name, and have been fascinated by the Yanquan sword for a long time. It is not easy to see Jinglin once, so they greet him together immediately, vying to lead the way for Jinglin.

One of them was quite old-fashioned, saluted Jing Lin respectfully, then followed Jing Lin, and said: "Little gentleman, come here, but what is the order from the door?"

Jing Lin said: "I haven't titled it yet. The name 'Jun Shang' collides with my father. It is inappropriate after all. Let's call it by name. There is no order in the door. I will take a look."

The disciples on the left and right did not dare to respond, and only said: "How dare you make a mistake in front of the Yanquan sword, please come to Qi Shao."

The autumn night was cold, and there was some wind again. The vegetation in the city was bleak, and the leaves were rustling.The ground was covered with a layer of withered yellow, and it creaked slightly under the feet.Some of the passing houses had been emptied, and the doors were shaken from side to side by the wind, screaming "creak, creak".

Jing Lin asked: "How many people in the city have left?"

The disciple replied: "Most of them have dispersed. Ever since the news of the destruction of the Seven Towns and Two Cities, people in the city have been in panic. Some people dragged their families away that day. Many families did not want girls and threw them on the road. The little girl secretly The Yangle Hall in the city is full now, and we are gradually running short of food, and I am afraid we cannot afford it. Fortunately, I received an order yesterday that these unwanted children will be sent to the door in a few days. , educated by the private school in the upper courtyard of the emperor."

When Jing Lin left, he had never heard Li Rong mention the matter of the private school, and it was inconvenient to talk about it now, so he just nodded his head as he knew it.

The walls of Xuanyang City are solid, and Jing Lin feels the integrity of the talisman when he touches the walls.The spiritual talisman gradually emerged, glowing faintly in the night, and intertwined spiritual lines immediately appeared in the sky above Xuanyang City, covering the Lingtian Tower tightly in a way of converging in all directions.

In this quiet night, if people with better hearing can hold their breath and concentrate, they can hear the slow and long sound of sleeping under the pagoda, that is Shuran.

Jing Lin walks along the wall, with blue light floating around him, following his footsteps, a blue light belt will be spread around the wall.Jing Lin made a tactic with one hand, and saw the blue light suddenly sank, submerged into the soil, followed by the high wall booming and lifted, and grew several inches upwards.

Jing Lin took a few steps back, looked up, and asked, "Is there no one guarding the wall tonight?"

"The situation is critical, I dare not rest." After answering, the disciple followed suit, frowning and puzzled, "Why are they silent..."

Jing Lin had already stood up, he went up to the city wall, and when he saw the guard turned his back to another place, he took a few steps closer.It's just that during these few steps, the atmosphere on the wall was turned upside down. Before all the guards looked back, Jing Lin drew his sword first.

The sword qi swept straight, and the head immediately rolled to the ground.But seeing no blood dripping from the broken neck, crawling out of a small pocket face, sticking out his long arms like smoke, it is actually a greedy demon.

Jing Lin stepped down, and the weapon placed against the wall suddenly flipped up, and the night wind beside him pushed wildly, and the sharp blade was thrown everywhere through the air with a "swish".The guards cut their heads and straightened up, and rushed towards Jinglin amidst the sound of greedy Xiang chewing.

The pharynx spring sweeps like a ring of light, circling Jinglin quickly.Jing Lin turned over to grasp the sword, and saw the black hair swaying with him, and the surrounding black mist screamed and dispersed.I don't know when, except for the sound of the wind, there is no sound in the night.

In this dead silence, Jing Lin looked back and heard a sudden "boom" crash from under the Lingtian Pagoda.He stepped into the air with his sword in hand, and saw the Lingtian Pagoda shake violently, and the houses around him collapsed.

"Not good!" The disciple under the wall exclaimed, "Seventh Young Master! Shuran is about to break his seal!"

Before he finished speaking, he was torn to pieces in the wind.Then I saw the Lingtian Tower tilted suddenly, the suppressing spell "stabbed" snapped, and a terrifying claw protruded.

Jing Lin stepped on the top of the tower, flipped his palm and took a picture of the big green amulet.The talisman slammed down, Shu Ran shrank his claws in pain, then jumped into a rage, arched the tower with his back stab, howling.

At night, the bright moon has entered the clouds, and before you know it, it is already bloody and misty.The sound of the waves of the sea of ​​blood gradually subsided and became clearer, beating against Jing Lin's ear.His feet were already unstable, and the entire Lingtian Pagoda was collapsing.

Jing Lin turned down with the sword, and the blood mist exploded in an instant.Seemingly aware of the murderous intent, Shu Ran poked his head out of the tower, hissed and roared at Jing Lin with his majestic mouth, and then swooped forward.Jing Lin kicked out of the way, and kicked so that Ran rolled and jumped again.

The sound of the wind in his ears made ghosts cry and howl, and Jinglin suddenly felt a stabbing pain in his back. Before he could move, he felt his chest stirring, and the spiritual sea rolled with huge waves, and a rush of hot blood rushed straight up, making his eyes go black. The five senses were suddenly cut off.

The "door" that had never been able to enter was opened at this critical moment.

Jing Lin stayed where he was, and Shu Ran poked his neck ferociously, rushed towards him, and bit him down——

The blood mist suddenly turned wildly in the wind, and the giant teeth were stuck in a "click", and an arm was stuck into Shuran's mouth. The next moment, Shuran suddenly jumped up, and then was thrown into the huge wall by this arm.The wall was smashed with cobweb cracks, and Shu Ran couldn't reach it, and was hit in the abdomen.He suddenly choked up foam and turned into a human body, but before he opened his eyes, someone lifted his hair, before he could spit out the foam, he was thrown to the ground by someone!

The ground cracked, and Shu Ran was beaten to the point of bleeding.His arms trembled, his face pressed against the gravel, and blood was everywhere.

"Di, Dijun..." Shu Ran's voice was like a mosquito, tremblingly said, "...spare me...spare my life!"

Cang Ji remained silent, lifted his head up, and slammed it down again!
