Mad Dog Meiqi

The imperial court sent congratulatory gifts to King Ping: [-] million spirit stones, [-] boxes of rare treasures produced in other cities, [-] boxes of various high-grade pills, [-] middle-level monks, a thousand catties of fairy flowers and spiritual herbs, and beautiful concubines Thousands of names, countless things in the world—and a princess from southern Yunnan who had a cardamom age and a rich dowry.

The two batches of old and weak women and children were also sent back.King Ping was not angry, but continued to guard Pingcheng obediently.The [-] mid-level monks were dispersed and sent to various military camps, and the [-] concubines were handed over to a female cultivator for training, so that they could go to the battlefield after a year.The Mahayana elders sent by the enshrinement hall to give gifts had no objection to this, and only urged people to help arrange the wedding room and new clothes.

This elder has a good temper, and he should live in another courtyard when he arrives at Prince Ping's mansion, but King Ping said that the courtyard has been allocated to Mei Qi, so the elder laughed and praised him a few words about the young hero, and said something about Mei's family. Size matters, and then changed to another yard to live in.

When it was New Year's Eve, King Ping's little bride came late.King Ping wore a groom's hair crown on his head, and was dressed in a red dragon-pattern cassock. He led a group of subordinates who were not seriously injured and had fair appearances, and stood at the entrance of the passage to greet him.He stood in front of the queue with a gentle smile, but there was no smile in his eyes.

This is the "trophy" that the imperial court got in the war that gave up supporting Pingcheng.The girl wearing the phoenix crown and Xiapei only reached King Ping's waist, she was smaller than Mei Qi.Mei Qi was two inches taller after the fusion of human and sword.

Prince Ping took her hand, which was not much older than a child, and walked towards Prince Ping's mansion expressionlessly.

A group of people were walking on the clean and wide road. The elder returned to the human world and blew up the passage. No one looked back at their hometown in the human world.

Black and white veils were hung everywhere in Pingcheng, but Pingwang Mansion was decorated with lanterns and festoons, with gongs and drums beating, it was very lively.Everyone's faces were filled with distorted happiness and hatred, and in the end they all stirred up the wine and swallowed it down their stomachs, talking and laughing loudly again.

Most of the Pingcheng monks have never eaten ordinary food after forming alchemy. This time, the elder brought more than a thousand chefs and fellows—who will also be sent to the army afterwards—and the flowing water mats were placed from the gate of the Ping Palace to the other side of Pingcheng. .People ate, drank, talked and laughed loudly. Occasionally, when a child mentioned the bride, his parents would gag his mouth with food with an embarrassed smile, but they couldn't explain to the child what kind of humiliation it was.

The atmosphere in King Ping's Palace was icy cold.An Linping kindly asked the chef who introduced the dishes to go out, stood up and toasted all his colleagues.The people in the hall didn't know how to eat, and finally Xu Zhen stood up and kicked over the table, pointed at his nose and cursed, folded the sword on the ground, and slammed the door away.King Ping pulled him back, and said in embarrassment: "General Xu, today we are going to discuss the Seven Sages City."

Xu Zhen was so angry that he yelled "Fuck you, fuck you", but couldn't say anything else, sat down angrily, and said after a long while: "See what you mean, my lord."

An Linping said calmly: "The new Lord Langya Demon King has similar cultivation base as me, and the demon army he brought with him is similar to that of Pingcheng. The imperial court hopes that we can maintain the previous relationship with Qixian City. Go out to fight, delay time. Wait for them..." He said with a sneer, "Wait for a few of their priests to complete the tribulation period, and then come to assist Pingcheng and wipe out the demon clan in the Northern Region. Of course, this is the rhetoric of Elder Luo, and he also I'm very sorry. What do you guys think?"

One person said: "My lord, I have doubts. The passage will be impassable for at least ten years, but only ten years. What will the court use these ten years for?"

King Ping looked at him and said, "Selling Pingcheng to the Sun Moon Sect is enough."

Xu Zhen sighed: "No wonder you are in such a hurry."

"It's useless to be anxious." Wang Ping said, "I can get away. You can too. The others can't."

"It's better to observe for another two months." A patriarch smiled wryly, "My lord, although the battle of Pingcheng was a great victory, it also hurt the vitality. Many soldiers' injuries are not healed, even General Chen... You injured their young master again, even if he could attack the door, he would not send troops immediately. In my opinion, there is no need to worry about this matter."

"Patriarch Wang is wrong." Another head of the sect pondered, "I don't think there are so many masters in the spiritual world. False gods? Since they are all the top existence among the monks, the Demon King Langya may not be convinced by the Sun Moon Sect. What's more, there is only one day to be a thief, and there is no reason to guard against a thief for a thousand days, so we still need to prepare earlier."

Some people expressed their opinions one after another, but most people still support observation for a while, and only increase the patrolling intensity.After all, although the previous battle was short, the sequelae were still there.King Ping nodded secretly - even after he returned to the palace, he sat on the ground and fell asleep like that.

In the end, it was still decided to observe January first, collect information separately, and hold a meeting every three days in Pingwang Palace.

As soon as the decision was made, everyone who drank and drank, and those who ate vegetables, became cold again.

Fireworks started to set off outside.The thousand beautiful concubines who were sent to practice also knew that this was probably their last chance to wear soft satin and gold and silver, so they endured the cold and changed into light gauze, and went out with pipa and jade flute.Their singing was mellow and plaintive at first, and became more and more obscene and enthusiastic amidst the booing of the people, and finally even the wounded were helped out, booing while drinking, shouting and singing out of tune.

The sound of singing, firecrackers, and hustle and bustle came indistinctly into Prince Ping's Mansion.Xu Zhen stood up, picked up a jar of wine, and said, "It's getting late. I'll go check out the situation outside the city and pick them up for a shift."

King Ping got up and said: "General Xu, I will send you a ride." Then he said to the rest of the people: "You have worked hard today, if you need anything, you can tell the servants in the mansion, and you can stay. Today is the [-]th year, and I mentioned something bad. , I punish myself with three cups." He drank three pots of wine in a row, cupped his hands and said with a smile, "I wish you all a happy new year."

Everyone got up and sent each other off.

An Linping walked out of the gate of the palace, and when he walked into the courtyard, Xu Zhen scolded him with a smile: "You are still too capricious!" After the latter laughed, he carried the wine jar and flew to the city wall. An Linping didn't want to go back to the main hall , looked at the dark sky with snow, and walked to the kitchen with a twitch.

A dirty boy who looked like a dog that had rolled in muddy water was sitting on the threshold of the kitchen with a smile on his face, holding a plate of snacks and eating them with his hands.The busy cooks, servants and maidservants in the kitchen were working and chatting enthusiastically, but they didn't even dare to look there.A handyman was carrying a plate and carefully passed by the other side of the door frame, and the boy moved aside to protect the snack.

King Ping has not seen Mei Qi for several days.It's not that he didn't look for it, but how did he find a knife on a battlefield soaked in blood and covered with broken blades?

He took a step forward, Mei Qi looked up and saw him, her eyes lit up, her expression changed immediately, she grabbed the plate and ran away.King Ping stepped forward to stop him, ignoring the servants who saluted him, and called Ah Qi.

Mei Qi protected the plate with one hand, covered her face with the other, and turned around blankly in his space blockade, yelling anxiously, and took a long time to choke out: "No, it's..." Those jet-black shiny His eyes looked at him through his fingers, as if no one would notice.

King Ping said softly: "Follow me back."

Mei Qi simply squatted on the ground, still protecting the plate of snacks in her arms.King Ping had no choice but to grab his wrist and pull him up, waved his hand to break through the space, and entered King Ping's hall.

That wrist was as cold as an iron sword that had been buried in the frozen ground overnight, but his heart suddenly calmed down.Pingcheng was decorated with lights and festoons, lifeless, a cold sword melted away in his hand, he took Mei Qi's hand through the silent corridor, snow and sand danced and circled outside the barrier.

An Linping brought Mei Qi into the study.

His little bride came from afar, travel-stained, trembling all the way, got his pardon, thankfully took off her wedding dress, changed into a white dress and black gauze mourning for her deceased father, held an amulet and began to cry. The bedroom fell asleep.When An Linping passed by the door, he extinguished the candles for her through the wall.

He led Mei Qi into the house, waved to fetch a bathtub, and grabbed clean fresh snow from the window, boiled it with spiritual power, turned it into warm water, and poured it into the bucket.

Mei Qi stood on the spot, grinning and watching him do the tricks, her smile was somewhat embarrassing, blood and snow pooled under her feet.His frozen hair also softened, and the tails of his hair dripped with snow, like a dog in water.

An Linping beckoned, "Take off your clothes, come over and take a hot bath."

Mei Qi let out an "ah", not wanting to understand this complicated order.King Ping sighed slightly, was about to roll up his sleeves, paused, took off the wedding dress embroidered with gold thread and put it on the desk, waved his hand and caught Mei Qi out of the pile of dirty clothes, and put it in the bathtub .Mei Qi started playing with water right away, she didn't seem too crazy, nor was she completely rough-skinned, she still liked hot water.

But obviously, he can't shower himself.An Linping rolled up his sleeves and said, "Close your eyes."

Mei Qi closed her eyes obediently, letting the hot water in the ladle slowly wash down from the top of her head, occasionally letting out a few smirks.An Linping took the acacia, put it down again, put his hands on Mei Qi's head, his thick spiritual power became fine and gentle, and he untied the knotted and rough black hair little by little.

Mei Qi quietly opened her eyes restlessly, raised her face to touch his fingertips.An Linping smiled shortly, and conjured up a group of little geese and ducklings flopping about in the water.Those little snow-white or bright yellow things only have a fluffy shell with condensed spiritual power, Mei Qi was attracted attention, and carefully caught and played with them.An Linping straightened his hair for a while, and Mei Qi's raised hand splashed water on his face.

An Linping smiled, took off the two fake birds from his head, and put them into Mei Qi's wet palm.Mei Qi's fingernails are all dirty, she doesn't know where to fool around.An Linping patted his head along his long hair, and said softly, "Ah Qi."

Mei Qi raised her head, her two jet-black eyeballs looked extraordinarily round.

He stared at An Linping and blinked, splashed into the water, lowered his head, and hugged those small animals that couldn't bark or move.

The young man's long hair could barely cover his thin back, and the wind and snow in the spirit world hadn't taken away the softness cultivated by Misty Rain in the south of the Yangtze River.When An Linping picked up the long hair from the water, his fingertips touched some smooth and delicate skin, and he stopped there for a while.

He was a false king and now a false god.It never occurred to him that the fiercest soldier under him was such a young man.like a girl.Like Yunxiu next door who lost her parents, her homeland, and nowhere to go.

Such a young man should not be on the battlefield.Mei Qi should hold a volume of books in the private school and pretend to shake her head with others, take three or five friends out to steal chickens and dogs twice in three days, or take a seven-kill sword to challenge the big sects and small sects who have traveled thousands of miles. Friends are drinking on the boat.

"It shouldn't be you." An Linping murmured, "I can't do it."

A warm hand reached behind and touched the back of his hand.Mei Qi said blankly: "It's me."

An Linping whispered, "I'm sorry."

Mei Qi smiled and said, "It's okay."

As he spoke, he suddenly took a bite of the fluff in his hand, a little disappointed.An Linping patted him on the shoulder and handed him a plate of dim sum.That was the one he stole from the kitchen in Shattered Space just now.

Mei Qi didn't care about anything else, she lowered her head and ate some snacks.The desserts at the wedding banquet looked better than those made by King Ping himself, and the new cooks generously used seasonings, so the taste was richer.He sat peacefully in the bathtub eating snacks, ate a piece, and handed one to An Linping.An Linping took a bite, patted him and told him to turn back.

After eating snacks, Mei Qi hummed an out-of-key song comfortably for a while, her body became heavier and heavier, and she finally fell asleep leaning on An Linping's two big hands.What he was humming just now was a gentle Jiangnan ditty, as if he was sitting in a small boat with someone, picking a misty morning to go spring.The water in the bathtub was rippling slowly, the dim lights in the study reflected on him, and the water glistened on the wooden beams.

An Linping unconsciously looked at him and smiled, and slowed down his movements. Mei Qi leaned down on his strong arm with peace of mind, soaking his sleeves.

He patiently rinsed Mei Qi's long hair that had become soft again, and used spells to remove excess moisture.It was only when he was about to put clothes on Mei Qi and let him rest on the soft couch in the study that he realized that Mei Qi's original set of clothes was dirty and torn, and he could no longer wear them.

By accident, An Linping turned his head and cast his eyes on the red wedding dress on the desk.

Outside the window, the sparse snow grains and sand are pattering in the wind, like a warm summer rainstorm.
