Huafa Luoyang

Zhuang Jiuyao's heart skipped a beat, already smelling the smell of blood, so he hurried around to him.

Xun Luo still lowered his head, raised his arms to cover his face, blocking his sight.Zhuang Jiuyao went to pull him, and he gave a low laugh: "Why bother? It's very pitiful for me to lose my martial arts."

"This is really a turn of events." Zhuang Jiuyao also laughed, with a low and gentle voice, "So don't block it, because I know that I will only worry more if I don't see you."

Xun Luo smiled wryly and put down his hands, the bloody smell in the cold air became stronger.

Zhuang Jiuyao groped to grab his hand, and found a sticky patch.His heart was cold, but his face was still very calm, he only opened the sleeves of his coat, wiped his face with the sleeve corner of his inner coat, and then wiped his hands after cleaning.

The two of them didn't speak during the whole process, and even the sound of insects disappeared in autumn and winter.

"I'll accompany you to the stream to wash, so that the children won't worry when they see it." He put down his sleeves while talking, and hurried ahead of Xun Luo, "Don't be brave and say no. No one treats you as a weak person, you know Xun Daxia, you don’t take this little injury seriously, but pity me as a doctor, let’s forget about it if you can’t save it, but the patient doesn’t even tell me about his illness.”

Xun Luo laughed again and said, "Okay."

Zhuang Jiuyao nodded, barely bent his eyes, and walked in front of him.

Xun Luo stroked his heart with his palm, bowed his head and took two steps, but Zhuang Jiuyao suddenly turned around, and he stopped in surprise.Then a hand touched the back of his neck, pulling his whole body forward, and his head was forced to lift up.

Without saying a word, Zhuang Jiuyao leaned closer and pressed his lips against his.

There was a hint of madness, mixed with the smell of blood, and the tenderness and charm of the last time were gone.

Zhuang Jiuyao seemed to be venting, but he was still extremely forbearing, the desire to destroy rose and swirled, but he was afraid that he would push him away.

There are too many unexplainable things, which make people breathless in an instant.

Xun Luo was stunned, his mind was blank, before he had time to think about how to act, Zhuang Jiuyao had already bit his lower lip hard, and then let him go.

Take two steps back, turn around and walk away.

The wind violently drives the treetops. This is a sycamore forest, and the fallen trees are scattered in an instant, as if to cover the whole world.

A dead leaf touched Xun Luo's shoulder, he twisted it lightly, and stuck it to his bloody lips.Suddenly, I feel that I have experienced life, which is a rapid and slow disappearing process, so clear that people can see the greenery withdrawing little by little.

Maybe inadvertently, it will be like this cold leaf.

The person in front stopped after walking a long way, and stood there waiting for him without urging him.He slightly hooked the corner of his mouth, and suddenly felt that this was quite good.

Tianmen has not been found, or it has not yet appeared in front of the eyes, so there is no need to bear your own blood and other people's tears for the time being, and there is this person by your side.

There are no better days.

He strode forward, walking side by side with Zhuang Jiuyao, towards the creek that could temporarily wash away the blood.

On the second day when they were on the road, the three little ones were no longer as energetic as the day before. One was because of the steep mountain road, and the other was that they couldn't sleep well in the wild. Even Zhuang Ning'er didn't quarrel with Zhuang Jiuyao much.

Got half a day of peace.

Day by day, the air is still cold.Near noon, a group of people were resting on the side of the road, and Zhuang Ning'er found that Zhuang Jiuyao had not been living in Gu Xunluo for some reason.

Xun Luo's face is normal, I don't know if he is used to it and doesn't mind, or he didn't notice it at all.

Zhuang Ning'er only laughed at Zhuang Jiuyao in her heart, the more she lived, the more she looked back, like a teenage boy, if she liked it, she would look at it openly, such a stealthy glance, it was an old cow pretending to be tender.

I don't understand how her young master's promiscuous style changed when he was in front of Xun Luo.

I really don't understand.

Several people had their own thoughts, Mi'er looked at Xun Luo for a moment, and suddenly said crisply: "It's broken."

"Huh?" Zhuang Ning'er looked down at her, "What is Mi'er talking about?"

Mi'er reached out to touch her lips, then pointed at Xun Luo: "Big brother, I'm hurt."

Zhuang Ning'er turned her head to look at Xun Luo, and she really saw a small cut in the corner of his lower lip, she clicked her tongue twice in her heart, watching Zhuang Jiuyao shake her head again and again, the words "I don't know shame, I don't know shame" didn't come out, and it appeared directly on the Zhuang Jiuyao thought about it.

Seeing her expression, Xun Luo suddenly said: "I didn't sleep well last night, and in a daze, my chin hit my knee, and it hurt a little bit."

He has always been very serious, even if it is clear that there is no silver 300 taels here at this time, and even the word "pain" is said, Zhuang Ning'er has no doubts about him, and just said quickly: "Brother Xun didn't rest well? Then Let's rest for a while."

"Don't stop, let's go quickly, a big man, why are you so coquettish? You still have to catch up with the afternoon tea made by Mr. Nangong." Zhuang Jiuyao stood up, poked Zhuang Ning'er's forehead, with a serious face, "What do you say?" You, a big girl like a flower and jade, what are you doing staring at a big man? You can even see the corner of his mouth clearly. "

Zhuang Ning'er slapped his hand away, and snorted, "You're so respectable!" He took Mi'er and walked away.

Qi Yun stood aside, with a half-understanding look on his face.Zhuang Jiuyao pushed him again: "Let's go, children, don't listen to some words!" Qi Yun could only nod his head.

The two were left behind again, their eyes collided and then moved away, moved away and entangled back.

Zhuang Jiuyao took a step forward to get close to Xun Luo, and did what he wanted to do since dawn when he saw him, but didn't find the opportunity to do it - stretched out his index finger and gently stroked the wound on his lip.

Xun Luo froze, raised his hand to cover the back of his hand in a mysterious way, and paused.Mi'er in front turned around and shouted, and he took his hand down, and when he let go, he squeezed his fingertips lightly, and said, "Let's go."

"Let's go." Zhuang Jiuyao nodded.

This Fengwu Mountain is much steeper than Yunya Peak, but fortunately there is no fork in the road, just keep walking along it.

But the top of that road has been invisible, which makes people suspect that this road will never end.Zhuang Ning'er muttered in a low voice: "My lord, do you really know the way?"

Zhuang Jiuyao said leisurely: "I don't know you know?"

Zhuang Ning'er was speechless, she didn't even bother to roll her eyes.Fortunately, Mi'er's physical strength has always been good, and she never cried out when she followed these people.

"This way." Zhuang Jiuyao finally stopped and pointed to the forest on the right.

Qi Yun scratched his head: "But there is no way here, Brother Zhuang."

"There is a way." Zhuang Jiuyao said firmly, "You just can't see it."

Xun Luo asked: "Is it a barrier forest again?"

Zhuang Jiuyao shook his head: "It doesn't matter, there is no mechanism inside, it's just that people who don't know the situation will never find Baizhang Lake."

"Then how did you know?"

Zhuang Jiuyao smiled smugly: "I visited Master once when I was young, and I secretly remembered it."

"How many years ago did that happen?" Zhuang Ning'er asked suspiciously, "Even if the formation hasn't changed, can you still remember it?"

Zhuang Jiuyao narrowed his eyes: "Probably 20 years ago."

Everyone had nothing to say, and he said again: "If you are timid, admit your timidity, after all, you are a little girl."

Seeing Zhuang Ning'er's displeased face, he smiled, and said seriously: "Except for the time when I was a child, I only saw him once at the martial arts conference."

"So?" Zhuang Ning'er regained her strength and gave him a blank stare, "Let's go, what are you talking about?"

He turned to Qi Yun again, and Qi Yun's round eyes were full of sincerity: "Let's go, brother Zhuang, we can leave as you say."

He smiled: "Okay, if you believe me, stop talking from now on, one by one, step on my footsteps, remember firmly, you can't take a wrong step. No matter what you see, even if it is taken by one person Even if the sword comes to kill you, don't step on your feet."

The two younger ones nodded solemnly, and Xun Luo looked at Mi'er: "Mi'er, come, big brother."

Zhuang Jiuyao directly reached out and grabbed Mi'er under the armpit, and was about to throw her on his back when Qi Yun turned his back to him: "Let me come, Brother Zhuang."

Mi'er had reached out to reach Qi Yun, Zhuang Jiuyao didn't insist, and sent Mi'er to Qi Yun's back smoothly, then turned his head and took a deep look at Xun Luo: "Have you ever entered an illusion?" Experienced, you are finished."

As he spoke, he walked away, stepping into the yellow leaf forest where there was no clear path.

Several people entered in a file. I don't know if it was Xun Luo's illusion. The moment they stepped into the woods, they seemed to have entered another world, and even the surrounding air trembled.

They walked quietly, one step at a time, but they were steady.Within half an hour, the woods gradually thinned out, and the exit was ahead.

The moment he stepped out of the woods, Xun Luo heard Zhuang Ninger's suppressed exclamation.

Outside the forest is a vast and boundless lake, no, it can be called a vast ocean.

At that moment, Xun Luo thought he had misread it, this was clearly in the mountains, how could there be such an invisible water area?My heart immediately understood that it was an illusion again.

Up and down the sky, a vast expanse of green.

Before the beautiful scenery, people will lose their voice. Xun Luo couldn't help holding his breath, looking at the line of water and sky in front of him.The cool wind caressed across his cheeks, and he couldn't help but suspect that his group had strayed into the fairyland by mistake.

Zhuang Jiuyao walked very slowly step by step, but never stopped. He stepped straight across the lake shore without pausing, and stepped directly into the water.Seeing him lift his foot, Xun Luoxin raised it high, then followed his footsteps and fell heavily.

Nothing happened, there was no falling into the water, and there was no change of being trampled by the illusion.

A lake is still a lake, Zhuang Jiuyao is still Zhuang Jiuyao.

Zhuang Jiuyao walked between the lake and the sky, like a dream, leaving only his back alone.

Qi Yun gritted his teeth, and stepped out. The lonely world in Xun Luo's vision broke into outsiders, and it shattered.Then came Zhuang Ninger, and then he stepped on the place where Zhuang Ninger stepped, and then stepped into the lake.

Walking on the lake, I didn't feel any special feeling under my feet, but I felt a little disappointed in my heart.

Go straight ahead, and you will be far away from the shore behind.

At this time, there is no back and forth, no up and down.The sky and the earth are vast, and they are just a few particles of dust floating in the wind, called people.People who live between heaven and earth, stand in the universe, accidentally get consciousness, consciously able to distinguish between beauty and ugliness, good and evil, dare to think about the four poles and the eight wilds.

The sense of loss was probably Dahua's punishment, slowly pervading in the chest cavity, and finally it seemed to turn into something like ice slag, piercing into the blood.

After being silent for a long time, Xun Luo heard Zhuang Ning'er sob in front of him, it was very light, but it seemed like a huge shock.He was shocked to realize that this rootless feeling is the same for everyone.

He looked at Zhuang Jiuyao at the front, and suddenly hoped that he could look back at him, but he knew that he was not happy now, so he didn't look forward to it too much.

If he leads the way alone, he will only suffer more than those who follow his footsteps.

The sense of emptiness is silent, and seems to be over the top of the head.He then glanced at the sky above his head, trying to suppress the strange feeling, but when he lowered his head, he saw Zhuang Jiuyao turn around and look at him, just one look.

Just one glance.Xun Luo smiled, he thought, with just one glance, he knew that this lake was something he would never forget in this life.

I don't know how long I walked, but I still haven't seen the shore of the lake, but Xun Luo felt that Zhuang Jiuyao's footsteps became lighter, then he stopped, turned around and looked at the few people behind.

The footsteps quickened, not knowing where the line was, but Xun Luo already knew when they stepped on it, and they finally stepped on the ground.The scene ahead suddenly changed, turning into an evergreen forest.

He turned his head abruptly. Where there was a lake behind him, there was still a forest of dead leaves.They were treading a path in the middle of the woods.

It is this small road that separates the two forests, as if the front is life, and the back is death, with a clear distinction between green and dry.

Zhuang Ning'er forced herself to come over, at this moment she also turned her head to look at the forest, and suddenly squatted down, crying uncontrollably like a collapse.

Qi Yun put Mi'er down, and then squatted down, trying to comfort her clumsily.Mi'er looked at the two people on the ground in a daze, Zhuang Jiuyao stretched out his hand to grab her thin shoulders, without saying a word, he raised his eyes to meet Xun Luo's.

Speechless.

After a while, Zhuang Ning'er stood up, wiped her face, and said softly, "Let's go."

"Have you ever regretted it?" Zhuang Jiuyao reached out to pat her head.

She was not angry, nor waved him away, but only smiled: "Who do you think I am? Zhuang Ning'er. Let's go."

Zhuang Jiuyao nodded, and started walking along the path again. This time, it wasn't because he asked not to talk, but because no one wanted to talk.Not long after, the path came to an end, and it turned out to be another lake.

The real lake, Baizhang Lake.

The surface of the lake is not big, and the shoreline can be seen from one end to the other end. There are flat lands on three sides, and behind the flat lands are forests.The other side is leaning against the cliff, the water flows down from the cliff, there should be a deep pool below, the water ripples continuously, the ripples go far away, and gradually calm down.

Half lively and half gentle.

The side they were standing on was right in front of the cliff, and on the right was a large open space. On the other side of the open space was a small solid and simple courtyard. Behind the courtyard was a large bamboo forest.

Zhuang Jiuyao signaled them to look over: "That's the residence of Senior Nangong."

In the courtyard is a huge evergreen tree with a dense canopy, almost covering half of the courtyard.A hundred paces away from the courtyard, Xun Luo saw a man sitting on a stone bench under the tree.

"My lord." Zhuang Ning'er hesitated and asked, "Is it true that everyone who comes to see Senior Nangong is like us, who must know how to get through the battle outside?"

Zhuang Jiuyao replied naturally: "Of course not. As far as I know, no one has been there for more than ten years. The last time Fang Qishan came to invite you to the martial arts conference, he should have used flying pigeons to send posts at the foot of the mountain, and he never came in." .If senior really wanted to meet someone, he would send someone out to bring them in, and naturally he wouldn't go the way just now."

Zhuang Ning'er was surprised: "Then didn't we force our way in?"

As soon as the sound fell, before Zhuang Jiuyao had time to answer, a loud voice sounded like thunder: "Who is here?"

The group stopped immediately, Zhuang Jiuyao lifted his robe, and knelt down with a plop: "I am the apprentice of Liu Xian's doctor, Zhuang Jiuyao, the owner of the Medicine King Valley, come to see Senior Nangong!"

Both Xun Luo and Qi Yun were shocked.

The author has something to say:

【Note】

Regarding the universe, there is a favorite saying: "Zhuangzi Rangwang": "Standing in the universe, I wear fur in winter and kudzu in summer; plowing in spring makes my shape enough to work; autumn converges and my body is enough to rest; day Work when you go out, rest when the sun goes in, and roam freely between the heaven and the earth.”

One green and ten thousand hectares: from Fan Zhongyan's "Yueyang Tower".

One bowl: The author was cheated by someone today, very badly, even if he is used to being cheated, he is still very sad.Very sad, very sad, too sad, too sad to speak.

Zhuang Jiuyao: You still say it if you don't want to?

Xun Luo: It seems really sad this time.

Zhuang Jiuyao: Be good, don't cry, touch your head. (If you dare to abuse us because you are in a bad mood, I will kill you! Hmph!)

Xun Luo: ...
