[Thunderbolt Tobacco City] Ren Pingsheng, Nine Layers of Smoke and Snow

Only after returning from the vast snowy area can I clearly feel the delicacy and narrowness of Ruanhong Shizhang.The red curtain covers the cage, the splendid hall is like a prison, the tea leaves are hazy, and the quiet hall is full of fragrance.But at this time, he was restrained by the ice arrow, and when he was here, he was secretly excited by the heating, and felt that the house of Zhuying Danxi was as straight as a silkworm room.

Therefore, Nishinomiya Diaoying was forced to let go of his years-long disguise of being a master of cigarettes, pretending to be crazy and foolish, but also to explain him: Your life is much more precious than you imagined. Resentment as a chain, subject to the past that cannot be changed, and the ground is a prison?

He went to touch his neck again, it had been carefully cared for for many days, it was completely healed, and he couldn't feel even a trace of pain aftertaste.

——Those pains inflicted on him may eventually fade away as time goes by, but senior brother, have you ever thought about it for me, if the Son of Man chooses to wipe away his grievances and enmity after witnessing his father's death, He is heading towards the blue sky and the yellow spring, what face does he have when he sees each other?

On the ruthless upstairs, the rain of blood has not stopped like hemp; below the ice tower, it is easy to kill with arrows and blades.But he didn't want to, it turned out that love was like a curse, and righteousness was like a net. I don't know when, he has been firmly trapped, hindering both advancement and retreat. Who says the world is wide.

"Son..."

Zhu Han didn't know when he appeared, and stood at the door of the dark hole, looking at him worriedly.

"Why is the young master standing in the yard all the time?"

Gong Wuhou guessed that her appearance must be terrible, Zhu Han's expression was evasive, and even his voice was so weak.But he couldn't laugh, so he walked towards him with a stiff face.

"Master himself is also injured, and he has been with Yanxue Jiuzhong for so long, but now he is tired? It's still early for dinner, do you want to rest first?" Zhu Han lowered his head, still rambling as usual, but also It seems to be sick, and the sound is like a mosquito, sickly and faint.

Gong Wuhou intuitively felt that something was wrong, so she lowered her eyes to look at him.

Zhu Han felt that the gaze that would not fall on him easily shrank back as if scalded.

But his master still caught those red and swollen eyes, and he didn't even have time to wipe off the tears on his face.

Responding to something in an instant, Gong Wuhou immediately felt pain like a thousand arrows gathering in his heart.

He couldn't believe it and stared at the top of the head that was still wearing a bun.He wanted to say something, but couldn't find his own voice.

"Master, son..."

He took a deep breath and asked as calmly as possible: "Your father..."

Immediately, Gong Wuhou was hit hard by someone, his body and spirit were scattered, and only his hands were left to hug his waist so tightly that he was saved from losing his soul on the spot.

The walls on all four sides and the square roof over the head are pressing down infinitely and airtightly.

The crimson mantle was fluttering, the lamps and candles were flickering, and his eyes were full of red, which easily swallowed his place of standing.

He seems to be floating on the sea, his heart is like duckweed, his body is like a solitary boat, misty and rainy, and there is no fulcrum between heaven and earth.

Tantai Wuzhu swayed into the nine layers of smoke and snow, and the courtyard was full of orchids and Qifen. After walking two steps, there was a quiet and full sleeve.

From a distance, the window was wide open, revealing a light to transparent figure, the only thing that stood out was the long chestnut hair falling on his shoulders.They hadn't seen each other for many years, but he still remembered his childhood appearance in his mind.

A child, just five years old, didn't feel that he was outstanding when he mixed with a group of boys at first.But only he knows how to win the favor of the great master by taking care of the young and favored junior. This kind of scheming makes him speechless even thinking about it.

To this day, I still haven't figured out how I became a thorn in his side, a thorn in his flesh, and suffered a lot from this child overtly and secretly.

I still remember that in March of that year, when the sun was shining on youth and the rain was still and the dust was flying, the Great Grand Master got a chess set with Bai Yao and Mo Yu as his pieces, so he called Jin Wuzhen to play.Hen Qiangu sat aside and tuned the Suqin and cleared the sound. Nishigong Diaoying just ran over after finishing reading, and watched behind his master.

At that time, the three monsters of Chaos, Qiongqi, and Taotie escaped from the chaotic world of the war cloud world, and they invaded Yandu from time to time, but he was the only one who was busy contacting the cloud world to catch monsters and patrolling to subdue monsters because of the errand of the master. , busy cleaning up the mess and reassuring the people.Originally, he had a clear temper, and when he was confused day and night and his mind was confused, he couldn't care less about grooming his appearance.As a result, he passed by the front courtyard of the cold window that day, and was caught by Hen Qiangu. Seeing that his clothes were out of order, he sneered: "I heard that the untouchables in ancient times turned their clothes upside down. With such an appearance, Pingting crossed the border, why not?" [Note 1]

Everyone laughed.

Hen Qiangu's joke was too cruel, he not only ridiculed the helpless embarrassment, but also brought him down to the point where he caused the great master to lose his morals.The exhausted Tantai Wuzhu turned his face on the spot, and thought: If I didn't look like me, where would you be so leisurely as to drink tea, play chess and play the piano to make trouble?Just as he was about to scold back, he was snatched away first.

"Qiangong's words are wrong. Zhugong works hard all day long, all because of the chaos of monsters. My disciples heard that chaos, Qiongqi, and gluttony are the three evil gods in Tang Yao's life. "Zhuangzi" says that "sages and wisdom are abandoned, and thieves are stopped." ', and vice versa: the rebirth of the three evils is enough to prove the three generations of Yandu Jun Ming Chenxian and Derby. [Note 2] Bamboo Palace should not care about these details. If this monster does not go for a day, you will be undressed , Running around naked, why not." The seven-year-old child has a childlike voice, but his words are correct and full of crooked remarks.

The four palaces laughed even louder, and even the grand master with the ice-faced face of Wannian couldn't help showing a three-point smile.

Tantai Wuzhu was very embarrassed, and secretly hated "have you ever read a book?" He flicked his sleeves and fought back: "Little nephew Diaoying is not an appropriate comparison, not to mention that Emperor Yao's virtue declined in his later years, and he ended up being favored by Shun." Prisoner, it is not appropriate to compare Tang Yao with the master, besides the three evils, there is also Dan...Zhu..."

The sound of the piano suddenly stopped.

In the eerie silence, there was only a "click" - the chess piece that Jin Wuzhen was holding on his fingertips fell off the board.

Tantai Wuzhu originally wanted to take advantage of Yao's lack of virtue to knock down both Hen Qiangu and Xigong Diaoying at once, but in the end the bookbag fell too hard and he talked a little too much—everyone knows that the eldest son of Dan Zhu Naiyao is surly and arrogant, and often quarrels with his father , after being expelled, he still instigated the Sanmiao rebellion, and became synonymous with disaster stars in later generations.

And in a few days, the child with blood-tear eyes who will be conferred into the palace on the day of his birthday has the word "Dan" as his title.

In the winter that just passed, there was a great chaos in which his biological father broke into the smoke and tried to rob him. The great master was extremely jealous of this incident, and even couldn't wait for his 20-year-old crown ceremony, so he was anxious to make an exception and violate the law. Give a name and a promotion.

However, he was careless for a while, and without thinking, he followed Nishinomiya Diaoying's words and made such an allusion... So he took it for granted that the face of the superior was gradually darkening.

I don't remember how he made it out of the arena alive that day, but the boy's face is completely out of age with a high-spirited and old-fashioned demeanor, which is unforgettable in his photographic memory and will last forever.

Afterwards, the past stories of him being bullied and teased are too numerous to enumerate. It is also blamed for being young and energetic at that time, and finally unbearable in a fit of anger. A confidential task, he asked himself to leave the palace and took over his position.After going for many years, I just turned around.

But thanks to these changes, Tantai Wuzhu had the opportunity to fish into the sea and birds return to the mountains. The sky was high and the emperor was far away, and he lived a carefree life. He knew that he had lost his way in Taihang, but fortunately he returned after he lost his way.And recalling all kinds of provocations and evils by Nishinomiya Diaoying back then, it is a bit funny.

Goodbye today, the little bit of childishness back then has also faded away, there is always a cool and solemn face, the face is more gloomy, and the jade-like pupils are like autumn water without waves.

"Is it easy to sit in the position of master? How does it feel to be a hero?"

Under the influence of the great master for a long time, Xigong Diaoying has excellent skills in nourishing qi, and she is completely unmoved.

Seeing that he was not fooled, Tantai Wuzhu was not in a hurry, and sat down beside his bed carelessly.

"In fact, Xiaoxi Palace is already very rare. The only miscalculation is that you excluded the variable of Shulou Longsu early on, which is a big mistake. Fortunately, the master was prepared and recalled me from thousands of miles away. It's a pity that you are too self-righteous .”

Nishinomiya Diaoying's cold face was a rare sign of collapse.

——So at that time, Master used the word "peace of mind" in the cigarette news, not "wholehearted", not "steady heart", not "single heart". Don't care, he stayed behind early in the morning, you just need to rest assured.

"Because of your lack of composure, Shuang Yanyueke had an opportunity to take advantage of. Yandu could have taken it lightly, but ended up suffering heavy losses. As the master of Yandu, you are not qualified."

The slender body was tense, and he tried his best to hold back, not to show his weakness in front of this guy, but he had no energy left to refute.

"...And do you know how much trouble you have caused your master by taking this wrong step? The great master has been famous for many generations in Yandu, and once he regrets it, there is already an uproar in Yandu. Now there is even more trust." The person known as 'Dongjing-kun' used the topic to make full use of it, formed gangs and associations, and created public opinion, with ulterior motives."

Tantai Wuzhu spoke very slowly, his voice was dull and tasteless, but it was like a thin blade of torture, one knife after another, the flesh was cut to the bone.

Gradually, I heard that the other party's breathing became heavier and tended to be fragmented. When he was in danger, he stood up and leaned down, and added a sentence in his ear: "Oh, by the way, although Xiao Nishigong's body has been disabled, you have long-term wisdom and wisdom. , haven’t you noticed that the person who has always been with you like a shadow no longer feels his existence?”

The blue tassels touched his face slightly fluffy.

...? !

That's right... That's the rule established by Hen Qiangu... In the dark pavilion lineage, the Ministry of Commerce is the guard of the palaces, and they must die...

Tantai Wuzhu backed away a little, his amber eyes glowed like some kind of precious wine, and he looked at him without any warmth: "...That's right, Heting Lingkong, and many, many people, all of them She was buried under the ice tower by Shuang Yan Yueke."

Nishinomiya Diaoying suddenly coughed violently.Subconsciously wanted to lift his dominant right hand, but found that he couldn't move at all.

Tantai Wuzhu covered his mouth with his hand, paused for a while, then pinched his sleeves and carefully wiped off the blood on his lips and chin, the green sleeve embroidered with bamboo patterns showed mottled dark stains Come.

He who had been expressionless all the time suddenly smiled: "That's right. 'A saint forgets love, the worst thing is not to love, and love is in my generation'. So in the future, I have to speak out when I feel uncomfortable, and I have to cry out when I want to cry. This is just like a child, why pretend to be an adult."

He immediately stood up straight, pressed the non-existent wrinkles on the skirt with ease, and said goodbye as if he had visited a friend's residence: "However, the ice building is exhausted, and it is also thanks to Xiaoxi Palace. The Ming family was rescued by Shulou Longsu, but we hold Shuangyu Yueke in our hands, and we are not afraid that he will not come to our door. You rest, the finishing touches will be done by the master and me. Of course, the history books I will still remember that the master in charge flattened the ice building in one fell swoop, and I, an idler, will leave after dealing with these, so I don’t need to bother to give advice.”

As he spoke, he turned out the door briskly and indifferently.

A porcelain pillow chased after him, but it was a pity that he was not strong enough and missed his aim. It hit the door frame in one fell swoop, and it collapsed into countless pieces.

Zhu Han probably found support, and finally hugged his master with confidence and boldly, pouring out the grief of the past few days, crying until he fell into a drowsy sleep.

Now he was leaning against the door, curled up in a peaceful dream, like a helpless little animal caught in a trap.

Gong Wuhou felt powerless like never before.Even when he was beaten to the point of no chance of fighting back by Guling Shiyan, Cuoyinzi, or Shulou Longsu, he would not be so powerless.

His sword was never for protection, and the direction of the sword energy turned out to be a barren land.

The sun goes down, the night is cool, and with the melancholy of the evening smoke, I sneak into the Ming hall.

The red|sleeves are broad and broad, being carelessly blown by the shallow wind, it looks like a pair of huge wings of a goshawk.He felt that he was just such an eagle hovering around Zhu Han, unable to do anything, but just waiting for him silently, waiting for him to die, to die in front of his eyes, so that he could fly away without thinking.Or, simply kill him now, then he will be safe from beginning to end.

Or, destroy everything in this world except him.

Impressively, the red light came out of the sheath, and the edge swept back, and the frost-like cold sword energy shot up into the sky, Zhu Jian screamed and flew straight towards the faint figure in the courtyard.

The visitor pinched the sword formula as motionless as a mountain, his fingertips were slightly blue, unhurried, he was blocking the approach of the sword tip, the two layers of true energy opposed each other, it was like the rising sun coming out of the valley, bursting out a thousand zhang rays of light in an instant.

Zhu Hong was so shocked that she spun up into the air, and was held in the hands of the man in red who jumped up, and she flew down in a volley.

Slashing, slashing, stabbing back, a group of long sword lights that stretched across the clouds and the moon were all blocked and pushed back firmly with the grandeur of Yuan Ting and Yue Zhi.The space where the two are fighting is billowing with wind and dust, just like a lotus in water, with double petals blooming and then withering in an instant.

The two figures converged and separated, with light smoke and crimson mist, joining each other brilliantly.

The plain-clothed swordsman suddenly raised his right foot and stepped forward, jumping like a bunch of snow waves, easily trapping the wonderful dance of clouds and clouds.The burning blue light on the fingertips chased after the front, the sword wind was majestic, and the aura was all directions.The first sword is not finished, the second sword and the third sword are successive, continuous and sudden changes, but they are all consistent, seemingly sparse and dense.

The moves are not difficult, but the opponent's deep inner strength poured into the fingertips, making those simple and clumsy movements indissoluble.This kind of feeling seems to break into the empty mountains and deep valleys, the mountains and the sky, the thousands of peaks blind the eyes, and there are vast clouds of smoke and clouds in the midst of them, which reflect the soft water and mountain temperature that kills people's hearts.

He thought of the panic he had been trapped in the Yandu formation not long ago, and finally his heart sank little by little, and he fell straight into the abyss where the opponent was advancing all the way.

Another horizontal slashing sword was blocked, and the opponent took half a step to the right, and at the same time turned sideways neatly, so the sword finger with a faint blue spot naturally returned to hit the empty door on his left.

The routine is too familiar, I have practiced it thoroughly, and all kinds of solutions are flying through my mind, but for no reason, I don't want to use any of them.

He felt that there was only an empty shell left for him, and with a light knock, it would be shattered and blown away.

Eyelids lowered, Zhu Hong fell straight down, her cold and lifeless body threw forward uncontrollably, and landed on the vigorous sword formula that the slender fingers had made at will.

The pain was so extreme that I didn't feel anything.

He sighed softly: That's it.

Too tired, really too tired.

The author has something to say: [Note 1] Qiangong saw that Zhugong's clothes were disheveled, so he quoted the "Wen Li to see Yuan Fenggao" in "Shishuoxinyu·Words". He said, "When Xu You met Yao, he had a frank face. What's the matter with your clothes?" The implication was "You dress like this because I am not as good as Yao", and asked to answer "Because you just Come on, so Yaode has not had time to show off, I am a pariah dressed like this."Qiangong used this allusion to satirize Zhugong, and at the same time dug a hole for him to jump.

[Note 2] This passage of Nishinomiya is translated from "Shi Shuo Xin Yu Pai Tiao" "Don't drive to meet Zhuge Ke". In the original story, a person wanted to see Zhuge Ke but was always rejected. Shouting in surprise, Zhuge Ke scolded him, "Has something happened in my hometown (Yuzhou)? What's your name!" " "Yes, yes, there are not only the four villains, but also an unfilial son Danzhu." It is to ridicule Zhuge Ke with Danzhu.Nishinomiya only used the first half of "Tang Yao is above, and the four evils are below", in order to naturally trigger Takemiya to follow this allusion to say the second half of "not only the four evils, but also Danzhu", and then anger the master.

Hey, it's really strange, I originally thought that Dan Gong would be beaten by the master until he vomited blood for three liters and then went back to sleep, but when I wrote and wrote, my hands shook, and somehow someone fell into the master's arms... ...I can only say that maybe I am in a weak state of mind at the moment, and even Dangong is showing weakness; but at the same time, I feel that with his extremely stubborn personality, it seems that it is understandable to be weak at this point... Sigh, I don’t know Lah~~~ I'll reread it later and think about the ending, sigh...
